Boris 3D titles disappear when more than one font/size used

I've had a LOT of two-line supers created in Boris 3D (the first and second line are either different fonts or two different sizes of the same font) go invisible without any reasonable explanation.
This has happened on 3 or 4 different Macs of various configurations, running both FCP6/Leopard and FCP7/Snow Leopard. It's not limited to just one typeface (which is what I thought at first)... it even happens with Mac basic system fonts.
What happens is: I or another editor will create the supers...everything appears fine. They render fine. But if the project moves from one edit suite to another (running the same version of FCP), any unrendered supers become invisible. Clips are on the timeline, but will not display on-screen. Even retyping or re-rendering them doesn't make them visible... the only way to get them back is to completely re-make the super from scratch. Ironically, I can use exactly the same fonts, and it will work if I start over from scratch.
Beyond that, if I double-click on any rendered super, the second line will disappear from the Boris plug-in text window, and the super will go unrendered and will disappear.
Copying and pasting a rendered super into a new location on the timeline also won't work.
We've now had three or four feature-length documentaries over the last 18 months where EVERY super in the entire show has required retyping from scratch, at major cost and expense.
Since the problem has occurred in several edit suites, I'm assuming this is not a problem unique to our projects.
Anyone?

Maybe this will help:
There is an update available for the Boris Calligraphy package that comes bundled with FCP6/7 that addressed a bunch of font/crashing issues with Boris Title 3D.

How to config the digital write-to-line so it would independent when more than one is being used

when one digital wirte-to-line is used in the labview vi, a good logic high(5v) can be read using a voltmeter,but when two or more digital write-to-lines are being using at the same time,the logic high seemed to have split voltages and thus having a bad logic high.how to make sure that in the labview program,that when many digital write-to-lines are used at the same time,all of them can abtain a good logic high (around 5v).
I need the solutions urgently.

Hello,
The probable reason you are seeing the behavior you are is due to a reconfiguration of the digital port. The Write to Digital Port VI is setup to configure the entire port, then write to one line (default settings). If you reconfigure the port it will reset all the lines, and then write your new value. You will want to use the iteration input on the Write to Digital Line so you can avoid the reconfiguration issue.
The first time the Write to Digital Line is executed in your code wire a 0 to the iteration (or leave it unwired). This will configure the port for write and write your first value. The next time you use the write to digital port VI wire an integer greater than 0. This will bypass the configuration step and simply write the new value to the
line. You can open the Write to Digital Line VI to see how the iteration input effects the execution and configuration of the digital ports.

Text color changes when more than one color is used in the same paragraph in a bulleted list

I work in a print shop on designers' files preparing them for print. Machine I use is an iMac, plenty of RAM, running Tiger 10.4. Here is my problem: A PC user sent us an InDesign CS3 file. A portion of the text is styled as a bulleted list with character color and bullet (the solid circle) defined as (default) black. However, the style is over-ridden on the bullet and first two words following the bullet with a spot color red, which is present in the Swatches palette (PMS 186). The remainder of the sentence stays black. The text somehow lost this override, and instead of keeping the 2 different colors all the text changed to black. This seems to have occurred when I saved the file on my machine. When I go back and open the original file the text is still colored both red and black. I think that the file was originally an InDesign CS2 file, and could even have been a Indd version 1 or Quark file. Why did the color change with no user intervention? Also, I can't understand why, when the first 2 words are highlighted and changed to red, the bullet also changes to red. (That is good, of course, because that is what we want, but I don't understand how that happens when the character style is black, and I can't even highlight the bullet itself). I sure would appreciate any ideas anyone has on this, I have to try to explain why we printed the text in black when it was supposed to be red and black!

thanks Alan and Bob. Nothing has explained the loss of color so far.
Alan, I will suggest to the designer that she use a nested style. I wonder if that will make the styling more stable moving accross the different platforms.
Bob, I feel like you may have thought, as I did, that hundreds of saves and saved-as and many different applications would have damaged the file, but as you could see by the History, the file was fairly fresh.
There is a very outside chance that I wiped out the style overides by command click but I am really careful and I doubt it.
So I'll thank you both again and check back each day, perhaps this will happen to someone else and become an issue. I have tried to repeat my actions and cause the error again but to no avail.

Why does iPhoto (9.0/11) not retain the Event name when exporting more than one event? (using File - Export - Album name with number).

Why does iPhoto (9.0/11) not retain the Event name when exporting more than one event? (using File -> Export -> Album name with number).
Exporting a single Event retains the Event name which is what I'd expect. But highlighting more than one event and exporting it renames the images to Events 001.JPG, Event 002.JPG etc.
I was recently on holidays and had all my events nicely split on Dad's computer but when I went to export it I couldn't retain any of this information. Now I have to replicate this all again on my computer.
It wasn't possible to export the entire library as the external drive was fat32 format an I didn't want all of it. It would be nice to export a bunch of events to someone and have it retain the name.
Does anyone have a work around or will this be fixed at some point by Apple?

How do I print more than one custom-size photo on a page in PSE 10?

I recently upgraded from Photoshop Elements 6 to Photoshop Elements 10. I make greeting cards, and on PSE 6 I was able to print two custom-size (6-1/2” x 5”) cards on each 8-1/2” x 11” sheet of photo paper. The option to print more than one custom-size card on a single sheet of paper is not available in PSE 10. I want to know how I can print more than one custom-size card (or photo) on a page in PSE 10?

Use of layout when more than one parameter - Error Missing Parameter Values

Hi,
Is it possible to use a crystal report which has more than one parameter as the layout for the bill of materials report.
I have 3 parameters
       1. DocKey@       The Bill of Materials to be printed
       2. Number of levels to be printed
       3. type of levels to print.
When I try to print it gives me the error Missing Parameter Values.
I have tried changing the DocKey@ to CodeKey@ but the same error.
Does anyone now where to find a list of these tokens?
Thanks
Chris

I looked at the crystal report conversion to try to find what parameters it used and found none.
I have managed to create and use a crystal report to replace the production order using DocKey@ as the parameter. This works within SAP. However I have converted the system production order to crystal reports and from the converted report I cannot see any parameters at all.
How and where can you find out what paramters you need to use to replace any PLD report? Several reports have multiple selection criteria before the report prints. How can you find out what their tokens are called? I am starting to pull my hair out. I am getting great help from this forum, but do you know any documentation which actually explains this area.
Thanks
Chris

[JS CS3] Need an array of paragraphs when more than one story

Hello,
If I have a document with only one story the following line returns an array of all the paragraphs. I can then iterate through the array to my hearts conent.
var paraRef = app.activeDocument.stories.everyItem().paragraphs;
However, if there is more than one story, then, according to the Data Browser, some of the object Paragraphs contain more than one paragraph and some of the object Paragraphs are invalid. The length of paraRef is correct, i.e. it equals the total number of paragraphs in the document, but each member of this array either "bunched up" or contains nothing.
How can I write this so that when I have more than one story I can get an array of all the paragraphs?
Thanks,
Tom

Thanks, Harbs and Dave!
Before I saw your answers I came up with a (longer) solution:
var storyRef = app.activeDocument.stories;
var arrStories = [];
for(var j = 0; storyRef.length > j; j++){
    arrStories.push(storyRef[j])
    }//end for
var arrParas2 = [];
for(var x = 0; arrStories.length > x; x++){
    for(var y = 0; arrStories[x].paragraphs.length > y; y++){
        arrParas2.push(arrStories[x].paragraphs[y]);
        }//end for y
    }//end for x
But I am curious about something. Your solution and my solution both result in an array of all paragraphs in the document but the data browser shows these arrays in different ways. I am wondering how to intrepret them.
Your solution does not show the indexed paragraphs, mine does. See the images below.

The file is not readable, when more than one file open

Get this error when I try to open more than one file. Happens on different files, but especially on jobs that have side panels on packaging. The files have placed .psd images. Happens on different computers (10.6 & 10.8.2).
Can get the file open usually by closing the othere open file, but then is hard to copy and paste between files. Sometimes I get this when trying to open one file, but restarting Illustrator usually fixes this.
Have tried working directly from the hard drive, and still get this problem. Does to follow an exact pattern, can try to open file a, then b one day thsi will work another will fail. Seems like something is corrupting the memory, and usually happens with more complex files. Happens in CS5 & CS6, though I mostly work in CS5.

Anyone else getting this error?

Macbook freezing when more than one program runs

Hello all,
My Macbook is about a year and a half old. A few weeks ago, it crashed catastrophically, and the geniuses at my local store replaced the logic board.
Since getting it back, it's been crashing almost every time I try to run more than one program, such as itunes and safari. Ichat video or photobooth on their own cause it to freeze. The freezing process is gradual; first the program I'm looking at freezes, but I can navigate to other programs, but within a few minutes those freeze as well. During the freeze, the cursor moves (in beachball shape) but the screen is unresponsive and apple-option-escape has no effect; the only solution is to manually turn it off. It's also taking longer and longer to boot up. This happens when it's plugged in as well as on battery power. It's gotten to the point that I'm scared to do work on it, because I can't trust it to work long enough to save my data. What happened? Is this the result of my "fixed" logic board or something else? I am getting SO FRUSTRATED by how unreliable my macbook has become!!

You could also ensure you've run your standard Maint. scripts (via Onyx, Cocktail etc...) and perhaps boot to the Install DVD to verify/repair the hard drive and its permissions. Booting to the Install DVD and running the Apple Hardware Test (hold 'D' on startup) could also reveal things.
Failing all that, try resetting the SMC and Pram...

These are all a bunch of general procedures that the user can try to eliminate the issues - if nothing works, you'll need to make another trip to the genius bar.

How we can lock No more than one user can use the table at a single time

Hi Abapers,
0) which function modules to lock & unlock a table.
1) When you execute the program, we can check if there is any lock on this table. If yes, the user should be able to only view the table contents and not modify.
2) If there is no lock, then lock the table and go into change mode.
3) On exiting from the program, unlock the table using the function module.
4) more than one user can't modify the table just display.
Note: If there is any lock, display message saying table is locked.
Plz help me for this requirement.
Thanks
Nani

Hello Nani
Have a look at the lock object EMMARAE (Lock MARA and MARM/MAKT exclusively) in transaction SE11.
Inspect the F1 help for field Lock mode:
DE ENQMODE
Short Text
 Lock mode
Definition
 Defines how to synchronize table record access by several users.
The following modes exist:
 Exclusive lock
 The locked data can be read or processed by one user only. A request
 for another exclusive lock or for a shared lock is rejected.
 Shared lock
 Several users can read the same data at the same time, but as soon
 as a user edits the data, a second user can no longer access this
 data. Requests for further shared locks are accepted, even if they
 are issued by different users, but exclusive locks are rejected.
 Exclusive but not cumulative lock
 Exclusive locks can be requested by the same transaction more than
 once and handled successively, but an exclusive but not cumulative
 lock can only be requested once by a given transaction. All other
 lock requests are rejected.
If you want to lock a standard table search whether the table is used in lock objects (Where-Used-List). If it is a customer table you have to create your own lock object (including two function modules: one for enqueuing and the other for dequeuing).
The lock modules can be found in menu GoTo -> Lock Modules.
Given these lock modules the logic should be quite clear after starting the program:
1. Request lock -> if successful, continue in Change mode; -> if failed, continue in Display mode
2. Before leaving the report remove lock (note: no problem if no lock has been set in the beginning).

More than one device is using the same email. Help!

I use to have an Iphone in the summer but now its disconnected and i left my apple ID signed into my Imessage. I gave this phone to mom and now i have a new Iphone with the same Apple ID signed into my imessage. The other phone is still disconnected but I am 100% sure she is recieving my messages and I can't get a hold of the other iphone. Is there something i can do to my current iphone so she can stop recieving the messages? Will changing the email that i recieve messages at help? or changing the password to my Apple ID? Please help.

I will restate what is happening.
Network:
House; internet to wireless router BEFW11S4 (wireless=off, DHCP=on), 5 computers wired in plus one wireless bridge WET11.
The bridge talks to a second wireless router in the office (100 feet away). Wireless=on, DHCP=off, different address! There are 3 computers there.
This has worked for years! There is a third wireless router with wireless=off, DHCP=off and with a different address that is used for a hub.
Now people come with laptops and want to use wireless. If any of the routers have wireless=on the network crashes with “more than one device with same address”.
To troubles shoot; I reduced the network down to 3 pieces. Router in house, 1 computer and the WET11 bridge. All have fixed addresses! If I set wireless=on (router), then the bridge and the wireless router communicate wireless and communicate via cat-5. The network crashes.
For a test; I connected all three routers together with wireless=on then the bridge talks to all three via wireless and via cat-5 wire. I tried WEP with different pass phrases on each router and different frequencies. My bridge will talk to all routers it can find on any frequency with any pass phrase. It may not be able to pass files but it can find all the computers.
I believe the router wakes up and sees;
its self 192.168.123.254, computer 192.168.123.100 and a bridge 192.168.123.225
The bridge sees a new network with:
Router 192.168.123.254, computer 192.168.123.100 and bridge 192.168.123.225
And that bridge sees a new network with:
Router 192.168.123.254, computer 192.168.123.100 and bridge 192.168.123.225
“feed back”
I really want the bridge to talk to router 192.168.123.253 (office) but not talk to .254 on the same switch/hub (house).

Can more than one apple id use apple tv

I have one computer I use my apple id and iTunes on, my husband uses an external hard rive connected to laptop for his id and our son uses the laptop with his id . We all have our own iTunes. We haven't quite got the hang if home sharing and I was thinking if buying Apple TV for hubby for birthday but want to know if me and my son will also beagle to use our apple id on Apple TV......there are 5 devices between us and 3 apple id's and 3 iTunes library's stored separately.....help.....confused!

Yes, simply sign into the ATV with each Apple ID.
The only caveat is when purchasing content on the ATV to be aware of which Apple ID is currently in use.

How to set the Certifcate to use for SSL when more than one available?

I apologise for bad wording of question.
We have a 11g Directory Server and when we created the directory instance it generated a self-signed certificate. very nice.
We have recently requested and installed a CA signed certifcate, so we now have TWO certificates in the directory certificate store. Default Certificate and the new Server-Cert (the CA signed one)
LDAP clients STILL seem to be presented with the self-sgned certificate though.
Simple question... how do I make my Server-Cert the 'default' certificate presented to LDAP clients ???
I would rather not delete the self-signed cert if possible.
I cant find any documented method to achieve this.

# Listing Certificate
$ /certutil -L -d <path>/slapd-abc/alias -P slapd-
# Add Trust by adding CT
$ certutil -M -n "GeoTrust DV SSL CA" -t CT,, -d <path>/slapd-abc/alias -P slapd-
# Verify the setup.
$ certutil -L -d <path>/slapd-abc/alias -P slapd-
( You should see the CT beside the relevant cerficate, making it default for SSL communication )
GeoTrust DV SSL CA CT,,
