Syncing multi iPhoto libraries to iPod

2008-03-05 Thread Lloyd White
I have a 60 G Photo iPod and have been syncing it to my iPod through iTunes.

Recently, using iPhoto Library Manager, I have divided the iPhoto into three
separate libraries. Now the syncing only works on the original iPhoto
library and ignores the others.

I can't seem to work around this.

Any suggestions?

Thanks 

Lloyd

Hi all
I recently invested in an answering machine. I set it to answer after 2
rings and asked the caller to leave a message. It's wonderful - I get the
call and the advertisers never leave a message. They just ring off.
Cheers
John

Re: Turning multiple jpegs into a single multipage pdf document?

2008-03-05 Thread Steven
Thanks Shay, Alastair, and Bob for suggestions.

I haven't yet upgraded to Leopard, so I couldn't take Shay's suggestion up.
I did try the suggested process under Tiger, but the ability to print
multiple image files as a single pdf must be a Leopard enhancement - doesn't
want to work in Tiger, but you probably all know that.

I couldn't take Alastair's suggestion up because I don't have Photoshop.

I was about to try Bob's suggestion which as you said Bob required a bit of
work, but in the interests of evading work I thought I'd have a quick look
at GraphicConverter, tried a couple of things without success, then stumbled
across the surprisingly simple process of Print Folder Worked a treat!

Thanks anyway all. Another reason to upgrade to Leopard I guess.

Regards, Steven

 I asked someone to email me a soft copy of a brochure, expecting a single

 Instead I have a whole series of single page jpegs.
 
 Anyone know of an easy method of saving (or printing) all of these
 individual jpeg pages to a single multipage document?
 
 Many thanks, Steven

Hi Lloyd,

Using your iPhoto Library Manager:

iPod folders allow you to sync photos from across multiple libraries  
to your photo capable iPod. iTunes will allow you to sync photos  
either from your iPhoto library or a folder of pictures, but when  
syncing from an iPhoto library, it will only sync from the currently  
active library, meaning you can't mix and match photos from different  
libraries. What an iPod folder does is allow you to specify different  
albums that you want to sync with your iPod from any or all of your  
libraries.


iPhoto Library Manager will automatically copy the photos from those  
albums into a folder you specify (the iPod folder), putting each  
album of photos inside a subfolder. You can then tell iTunes to sync  
with that folder instead of with iPhoto, which will put the pictures  
from the albums you selected onto your iPod.


Unregistered users are limited to a single iPod Folder with a maximum  
of 100 photos at a time.

iPhoto Book

2008-03-05 Thread Peder Kristensen

Hi All,

To share some points on the iPhoto Book service.  I have just received  
my first iPhoto Book from Apple. The book is printed in US and comes  
in a very nice presentation box. What's print quality, well it's not  
bad, in fact quite happy with the overall print quality. However, some  
of the photos were a bit red. But then again the images had a lot of  
red in them and that presents many times problems in print  
reproduction. My disappointment was in the shipping time. The book was  
shipped from US on Feb 13 (Apple's info) but did not arrive until  
today 5 March. That's much longer than the Apples suggested delivery  
time. Yep, I know there are two postal service involve, US and Oz, and  
don't know who 'sat' on it for that length of tome. Overall I'm  
satisfied with the quality of the Book ... anyone else had any  
experience with an iPhoto Book order?


Cheers,
Peder

I'm probably the only australian not on the register so they all

I haven't had the book yet Peder, but I have had a batch of photos done.
One photo in particular had a lot of blue (blue car), and the colour
washed out the rest of the photo.  +1 for convenience through iPhoto,
but I think there are much better digital photo printing options out
there.

Sony monitor going

2008-03-05 Thread Vladimir James

Sony 17 inch Trinitron monitor with flat screen and vga to Mac adapter.
This excellent monitor was purchased 12-2001 for $670 and has had only  
light use.


it's not small and I need the space, so it has to go. Yours for a $20  
gratuity (the adapter alone costs more than that). Pick up near  
Mundaring.


Email me.

can't download information from Canon Download page

2008-03-05 Thread Inkavannell


I have been trying to download an Advanced User Guide for a camera from 
the Canon site and I have discovered
it can't be done from my computer.  I've sent e-mails and had calls 
with Canon support staff and
it appears that although I am following all the instructions correctly, 
I am not getting the prompt to

allow me to download.  Would it have something to do with the firewall?

I use an eMac 1.25 GHz PC G4 with 768mb DDR SDRAM

With thanks,

Network awareness

2008-03-05 Thread Kaye and Geoff
We run a simple network of two eMacs, one running 10.2 (hereafter 
called 10.2) and the other running 10.3 (10.3). Most of our 
critical working files are on 10.2. When 10.3 mounts the 10.2 disks, 
and 10.2 user unthinkingly shuts down without checking first, there 
is no dialogue box or other indication that another machine is 
attached; 10.2 just shuts down. Not surprisingly this annoys 10.3 
user.


We recollect that in the old days, pre OSX, that on shutdown the OS 
checked for anyone attached and displayed a dialogue box if there 
was, and we think that OS 10.3 also does this (we will check later). 
We considered writing a script (Applescript) to solve the problem, 
but can find no place in 10.2 which can be inspected to indicate 
whether someone else is attached. We imagine that there could be a 
daemon which starts up when a network connection is made, which we 
could see in the process viewer, but maybe not? We thought up a few 
very complex solutions, but something simple would be nice.


Does anyone know of any solution to this problem, either something 
straightforward, or any flag which can be inspected by Applescript?


Thanks

Geoff
