Applications :: How To Reverse The Large Gray Catastrophe

Jul 27, 2010

When I first installed iWork the document would be centered on the screen and viewing it in fullscreen mode would have the document centered with black on both sides. While toggleing a few settings to try things out I realized the document was now shoved into the upper-left portion of the window, with large gray areas to the right and below. Also, when I activate fullscreen, the document is on the left half and there is a huge gray box on the right. I am wondering what setting I changed, and how to reverse the large gray catastrophe.

OS X :: Always Allow In Parental Controls - How To Reverse

Feb 12, 2008

I have my daughter's accounts setup with parental controls (she's 9). I use the Parental Controls to limit the apps that she has access to so she does not get into trouble with applications that she should not be using.

I was working in my daughter's accounts the other day and I accessed the "System Preferences" application. Because this was one of the applications that I blocked, I was prompted (something to the effect of): This application is blocked by parental controls do you want to "Always Allow access", "Allow Access One Time", "Cancel"

I selected "Always allow" by accident. Now, when I go into parental controls, the "System Preferences" box is still unchecked, indicating that it should not be accessible by my daughter - but, when I go into my daughter's account, she has free/clear access to system preferences. I've tried checking and unchecking the Systems Preferences in parental controls, but it does not block access.

OS X :: How Do I Reverse Stacks Order

Feb 26, 2009

my stacks have started displaying backwards � in other words, rather than showing me the most recently added item first, it puts it last; when the stack expands, the �open in finder� option is at the top of the screen, with the most recently added item at the bottom. Instead of the other way around, which is the default. How do I change it back?

OS X :: Reverse That Transfer Of Images Into The Waste Bin?

Dec 9, 2009

Thinking that the contents of Finder's images folder were merely a history of images accessed, I placed the entire contents (2,020 images) of the folder into the waste bin. I realized my error upon opening my photos folder and seeing that no photos appeared.

Is there a way to reverse that transfer of images into the waste bin?

I couldn't highlight and move all the waste bin contents back into the images folder, so I tried moving just one image from the waste bin into the folder, but without success.

OS X V10.7 Lion :: Reverse DNS Hostname Keeps Changing

Jun 21, 2012

I work in an IT environment where we are adding more and more Macs every day. I have been charged with researching joining Macs to the domain. Before, we've had them unbound but we've decided to change that.Our environment is nearly entirely Windows based on the server-side. On Windows 2008 R2 servers we run DHCP, DNS, and AD. The problem is that when I bind a computer to the the domain, the hostname changes in the terminal window to one owned by an IP address previously. I'm worried that this might interfere with applications / scripts that run in the terminal.

I read that there is a hostname config file in OSX that can be configured to override this. I'd rather not do this for every computer in the domain though. Even if it could be scripted I'd have to manually type every hostname..not fun. I've read that enabling dynamic DNS on the DNS server should fix this but it doesn't appear to. We have "Always dynamically update DNS A and PTR records" checked and also "Dynamically update DNS A and PTR records for DHCP clients that do not request updates"

On the Mac client I've tried enabling and disabling the enable dyanmic DNS checkbox.. 

Is there a way to change this via a switch either on the backend or  in the client itself without having to change that hostname file?

Info:OSX 10.7 , Mac OS X (10.7.4)

Applications :: How Large Can Iphoto Library Be

Feb 25, 2009

I have many separate Iphoto libraries and keeping them organized is not that easy anymore. I would like to merge all libraries, but I think the resulting size would be over 100Gb, maybe 200Gb.

Would that affect Iphoto's speed or does it work the same no matter how many pictures I have?

MacBook Pro :: Fan Runs When Using Large Applications

Mar 27, 2012

When using either Mail (5.2, v. 1257) or Aperture (3.2.3, Build 6010000.1) I notice that the fan seems to run all the time when either of these two applications are open.  I just imported my entire iPhoto library (20,000 photos, about 80 GB hard drive storage in iPhoto) into Aperture.  I was lead to believe that Aperture has better management features for larger libraries. 

How do I find out why the fan is running and what can I do to monitor this situation?  Is it likely to cause damage to any of the MBP's internal components?

Applications :: Backing Up Large Iphoto Collection To DVD

May 1, 2009

I have about 13000 photos that total about 42 gigs in my iphoto library. I have an external hd and do regular time machine backups. I use mozy for extra regular backups of smaller stuff like documents and mail folder, but the free version is only 2 gigs unless I can get like a million referrals. Consequently, I try to do iphoto backups on dvd every once in a while, maybe monthly. My issue is that it is a pain in the ass to do it in iphoto, to play with each of about 10 dvds to get it right...

I would like it if there was an easy (and free) way to backup the library to dvd in one go. A plugin for iphoto would be nice, but anything that can do it relatively easily would be very welcome. I downloaded "Backup," "Data Backup" and "iBackup" but none seemed to do what I want. (Well, Backup did seem to do exactly what I want, but the free version won't do it for the amount of files I have). So, I figured I'd ask if you know of a program that suits what I'm looking for...

Applications :: ITunes With Large Library Freezes

Jun 2, 2009

I've been having a problem with iTunes that is driving me nuts. I'm not able to pinpoint exactly when it happened, but I think it was around the time v.8 came out.

iTunes freezes every time I start it up for around 7-8 minutes, then runs OK. This happens every time I start up, without fail.

It also freezes after (sometimes during) syncing with both my iPod Nano and iPhone 3G. It does this every time also, but it's inconsistent...sometimes it freezes during the sync, and sometimes it freezes afterward. Sometimes it takes me doing something like playing a song, but it always happens, regardless of whether I disconnect the device or leave it connected. It only does it after the initial sync; if I leave it connected and resync during the same connection it will not freeze again. The devices themselves are unaffected.

My iTunes library is 147gb. The actual library XML file is 69mb. I'd guess this has something to do with it, but if that is the case...what might be the cutoff size where this wouldn't happen any more? I used to have almost 350gb of stuff in iTunes...I've whittled it down this far and it still isn't helping!

I'm running the 1st gen MacBook Pro with 2gb RAM and a 320gb hard drive. I have approximately 30gb free on the drive, so I don't think hard drive space or RAM is the issue (although I have no way of knowing for sure).

Is there anyone else with libraries this size who are or aren't having the same problem? Can I do anything besides delete more music? And if so, how much do I need to delete? Can the XML file be optimized in any way?

ETA: I did the 8.2 update that came out today and it hasn't changed anything.

Applications :: Best Way To Deal With Large Photo Library?

Oct 6, 2009

I have an iPhoto library with 15.000 photo's and videos and I cannot stand the way iPhoto organizes all of them.

To get my photo's organized in a decent fashion I came up with the following ideas:

1. Switch to Aperture. (But Aperture does not accept videos, so that won't work for me.)

2. Use albums in iPhoto. (But the events are still under events, albums just create a shortcut.)

3. Switch to Picasa, but it seems like it is hard to get all the metadata (keywords, geotags, etc) correctly exported out of iPhoto.

None of these seem to work for me. How do you guys deal with your large photo libraries?

Applications :: Large Files Slow In IWork

Dec 16, 2009

I'm working with a numbers document that's just over 3000 rows and 11 columns. Searching, and certain functions are quite slow - not impossible, but frustrating. It's been years since I worked with Excel on a PC, but it was never this sluggish... Using this file, I did a mail merge with a Pages document. The merge took over an hour (this too seems slow, but since I only do it once, whatever). The resulting file is 1.1MB and just over 3000 pages. It was nearly impossible to scroll/review anything in the document. After closing it, Pages crashes upon trying to reopen the document. I got it opened on another MBP, but it's impossibly slow over there too.

It's looking like iWork is not able to handle large projects. I'm posting here in hopes that there's some magical fix that will make it work like Office (did I just say that?) The system is 2.16GHz Core 2 Duo MBP, 3GB RAM, Snow Leopard, all updated and permissions repaired this morning.

Applications :: Sending Large Files Between Two Macs Over The Net?

Apr 27, 2010

Me and my sister are looking for a way to swap files, between our Macs, over the Net.

I have no idea about FTP or Transmit and I'm not sure what our best method or app should be?

We're both running OS X- I'm on Snow Leopard, she's on Leopard*

My sister has two boys and a little girl. Shortly after buying our respective Macs, I bought an HD camcorder and my sister bought a very good DSLR. So I have lots of HD videos made with iMovie for her and she has tons of pics to send me. We both have our own back-ups of course but neither is proof against fire or theft to be honest. I know we could swap them on a large USB stick or a portable drive but we don't always see each other and she's very busy.
