iMove Question ?

2014-05-18 Thread Stephen Chape
Hi folks,

I have just noticed that my iMovie Events  Projects folders are empty.
Does this mean that in the latest iMovie they have moved to iMovie Library  
iMovie Theater ?
Library  Theater are not folders so I don’t know how to see what they contain.

If not can I move my older movie files from Events  Projects to Library  
Theater from my backup drive ?

Regards,
Stephen Chape

Mouse quirks

2014-05-18 Thread Severin Crisp
I have Mighty Mouse (with iMac) which is a great combination.   I have one 
problem however which shows up only with After Effects.  Mouse actions initiate 
large changes to the the scale of the preview window, both up and down, 
infuriating to jump to 200percent or 10 percent in the middle of something.   
It is related to the scroll function on the mouse and I have not found a 
setting or modus oprandi that will overcome it.   My workaround is to use an 
earlier  Bluetooth mouse the was to hand, the one with a button on either side 
and a small scroll roller on top, it may have been called a Magic Mouse.   This 
has no such foibles and I just switch it on when using After Effects.
Has anyone else noted this or similar problems?

Are you using a Apple Magic Mouse or a Trackpad? Does it only happen in Mail 
App?
Do you have installed any third-party software that might affect the mouse, 
trackpad, or scrolling?

Check in System Preferences to see if anything has changed with your Mouse 
settings or Trackpad settings.

If using a Magic Mouse, OS X Mavericks: Use an Apple Magic Mouse -

You could try deleting the mouse.plists

You need to look in your User Library/Preferences for the .plist.
Either hold down the option key while using the Finder “Go To Folder” command 
and select your user Library in your home folder or use the Finder “Go To 
Folder” command and enter ~/Library/Preferences.  Move the .plists to your 
desktop.
 
Test. If it works okay, delete the plist(s) from the desktop.
 
If the same, return the .plist(s) to where you got them from, overwriting the 
newer ones.

Cheers,

Ronni,

A bit old fashioned here.  I only use a hard wired USB connected mouse ( 
Logitech in fact).  

Tried the suggestions below with no change.

Wondering if upgrade to 10.9.2 would help here?

Re: Mavericks issues resolved.

2014-05-18 Thread Ronni Brown
Hi Bill,

Mavericks is up to version 10.9.3 now. 
Have you checked that Logitech have updated drivers for Mavericks for your 
model mouse?
Normally third-party software/add-ons etc need to be updated or they can cause 
issues. 

I would suggest you download  install OS X Mavericks 10.9.3 Update (Combo)
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1746
Do the normal preparation first: Repair Permissions - BackUp - Install the 
Combo - Repair Permissions after installation completes.

You could also Go to System Preferences -  Accessibility and for the mouse 
options or Trackpad options and set scrolling with inertia.  

Cheers,
Ronni
