  • What is the best way to preserve my having iPhoto library merge my pictures of girls with mine that his iMac had stopped working.

    What is the best way to preserve my iPhoto library had fusion - UN-intentionally - pictures of girls with mine as its iMac had stopped working. Some how I have about 48 000 pictures now where before I was about 11 000

    The iMac's hard drive has been deleted in tact and two weeks ago, she bought a new iMac 27' which has only the "Photos" application, but in trying to restore his iPhoto library, it gets about 24% then stops with a po - up window saying "cannot continue due to inconsistancies", that these are we don't know.

    I think using his old h/drive connected via usb to my iMac, I managed to save his library.

    On an external drive, I would like to make my backups that are up to date for a few days so that my photos need to be secured.

    1. Can I remove my iPhoto library and then re - import of my external hard drive?

    2. Can I give my daughter a copy of the "iPhoto app" and install on its new iMac and then re - import photos into iPhoto?

    I copy the library from the back to the top first before deleting anything, in case something goes wrong. You can choose which library to open hold down the option (or alt) key key and launch of iPhoto. In the menu that appears, select "Choose Library"

    No. but you can give him the iphoto library and she can open it with Photos.

  • What is the best way to save an array of objects and then load it?

    Hi, what is the best way to save and load an array of objects?

    I hade a code like that, but it does not work:

    var test = new Array();
    test.push(new Foo("a"));
    for (var i = 0; i < test.length; i++) {
        console.log(test[i]);
    }
    // save and load, then show again
    localStorage.setItem("test", test);
    var test2 = localStorage("test");
    for (var i = 0; i < test2.length; i++) {
        console.log(test2[i]);
    }
    

    the problem is, the first newspaper that get the things I want. The second time I get:

    Uncaught TypeError: Property 'localStorage' of object [object Object] is not a function
    

    The work around this problem is to stringify before saving and then analyze before loading.

    What is the best software and the process to back up my data files and email (Outlook and Outlook Express) on an external drive?

    The answer, in my view, depends on how much you have to save:
     
    1. If you want to make an image of the entire drive, with Windows,
    installed programs. etc, I recommend Acronis image.
     
    2. If you just want to back up data and e-mail and is not too
    much to save, you don't really need any special software. You could
    Just copy what you want to backup on the external drive.
     
    You can read this article on the backup that I wrote:

    I apologize to all those who find the bulky comments, but it's my edition of journal of the script. I removed the comments once the script has been published and used.

  • What is the best way to transfer pictures from an old computer to a flash drive or a drive back then to a new computer?

    What is the best way to transfer pictures from an old computer to a flash drive or a drive back then to a new computer?

    The easiest and most reliable I've found is to make the direct drag-and-drop method.

    (1) on the old computer, open your Windows Explorer and go to your photos.

    (2) open another Windows Explorer window and access your 'Computer' folder and in your flash drive

    (3) drag the photos to the flash drive.

    (4) take the flash drive on the new computer and drag them into your images folder

  • I'll do a clean install on a blank hard drive upgrade but want to keep my Firefox settings - what is the best way to do this?

    Hello

    The best thing for you to do is to make a backup of your Firefox profile. It is a folder that stores bookmarks and Add-ons that you can then add to the reinstalled Firefox on your new operating system.

    Learn you more about the Firefox profile folder, how to backup and restore, here.

    I have a song that is most often improvised, I was told that his cool, however, re-registration is not possible.

    After reading a lot on the mixture, I now hear where the uneducated choice and errors that I made which explains the sound "not as good" that the song is.

    Before I just jump in and try to undo the settings on the tracks (one is DRUMMER) to return to the raw track before effects/eq/compression ect. is is possible to do?  Opens the unfavorable mix, rename it, save it and just go to work and cancel or disable 'things '.

    The basis of the lean mixture comes even to the root where I 'hot' securities, (orange and red)

    I guess by now you understand my question and I am open to a favorable opinion.

    What is the best way to clean/free up space on my computer?  Even do not know where to look to see how much space I use... Thank you.

    A loss of main surface within each user profile would be penchant of EI for the storage of copies (or much) of almost every web page, your friend has already visited.  Try to reduce the amount of temporary Internet files put in cache, which is huge by default.  I always bring it back to a maximum of 50 MB.  In Internet Explorer, click on tools > Internet Options > general, temporary files > settings.

    Same principle for the Java cache. Start > Control Panel > Java > temporary Internet files > settings.

    The System Volume Information is the folder in restoration of which WinXP system feature stores information to retrieve errors.  By default, Windows XP sets aside a maximum of 12% of the size of the partition to store the information of the System Volume, but the amount of space reserved for this purpose can be adjusted by the user.  Start > all programs > Accessories > system tools > system restore > System Restore Settings, select the relevant partition and click settings.  If you don't want to use the system at all, restore simply to turn off System Restore (start > all programs > Accessories > system tools > system, System Restore settings restore) and restart.  This will remove all your Restore Points, thus freeing up hard disk space.

    An another great space waster may be trash.  By default, it takes up to 10% of the capacity of your hard drive. On today's big hard disks, it's a lot of waste.  It can be set to a lower limit by right clicking the desktop Receycle Bin icon, select Properties, and using the scroll bar to reduce the maximum size to something more reasonable - 1% to 2% should be more than enough space.
