9.4.5 BUG. Can't Multi-select Pages anymore!!!!

Confirmed on all 4 Adobe Acrobat 9.4.5 users at my org since the update yesterday.
Before, if you held the CTRL Key, you could select multiple pages in the Pages Pane to Delete/Extract/Ect.
THIS NO LONGER WORKS! And we use that functionality A LOT.
What is the best way to get this info to the powers that be?
-Sam

I am not going to spend one more red cent on Acrobat and reward Adobe for their lack of effective testing. As a long time Acrobat user and a former tester of software, it seems they do not do a good enough job regression testing their fixes to see if what they fix does not affect other parts of their product. I wonder how many other bugs are waiting for me if I upgrade to Acrobat X.
I really wonder if Adobe knows that there are a few good alternatives to Acrobat out there. And I do not want to discuss which ones are best.

Can't multi select image on Iphone

Hello everybody!
I write one program upload image from iPhone to server use HTTP request.
Current, I use UIImagePickerController to select image and UIImageView to receive and diplay image. Then use UIImageJPEGRepresentation function to get NSData from UIImageView.
I uploaded success image to server use NSURLConnection. But I have some question:
1. Use UIImagePickerController to select image from iPhone, I only select one image. I can't multi select image from iphone. Each upload, I only uploaded 1 image.
Which the way to select multi image to upload them to server in once time.
2. I can't get file name and type (jpg, png,... ) of image, UIImagePickerController only return byte value of image. I can access width and height of image with byte value but can't get name and type of image.
Wich the way to get name and type of image.
3. I found 2 function are UIImageJPEGRepresentation and UIImagePNGRepresentation to covert UIImage to NSData. Current, I use UIImageJPEGRepresentation to convert to NSData:
NSData *imageData = UIImageJPEGRepresentation(img, 1.0);
I think if image is PNG will use UIImageJPEGRepresentation to convert to NSData. But in case image is GIF, BMP,.. which the function used?
Size of imageData more than size of image. So, image upload in server has size more than data of image on Iphone. I don't understannd?
Thank you very much!

1) The image picker does not support multi-select. I think the best you could do is show the user the picker multiple times keeping track of all the images they pick.
2) You can't get the image filename. It would be of no use anyway. When the user takes a picture with the camera, for example, internally the phone stores the image with some internal filename that wouldn't make sense to anyone outside of the phone. Most likely all images are internally stored as JPG but they could be PNG.
3) Images on the phone will never be (I think) GIF or BMP or anything other than PNG and JPG.
There are a lot of conversions going on. The images on the phone are stored as PNG or JPG. When you load them into a UIImage they are converted into an internal bitmap format. If you then use UIImageJPEGRepresentation (or the PNG version) then the internal data is converted to that format. The PNG and JPG formats should be smaller than the internal format due to compression.

Multi-Select Page Item in Application Item

I have a multi-select page item that I need to copy to an Application Item (for AJAX select). I have a js function that does the following:
get.add('REFRESH_LOV_FK_SCHOOL',pSchool.value);
It only seems to copy the first value (before the ':') of the multi-select list to the application item. I verified this with the session state of both the page items and application item. Is there a reason it only copies the first value?

Bob
In your JS function you have declared the formal parameters as pSchool,pYear,pApp. However the code in the function references 'PSelect' I shall assume that you meant 'PSchool' <script>
function get_select_list_xml1(pSchool,pYear,pApp){
var l_Return = null;
var l_Select = html_GetElement(pSchool);
var schoolVal=$f_SelectValue(pSchool.id);
alert ('values=' + schoolVal);
var get = new htmldb_Get(null,$x('pFlowId').value,
'APPLICATION_PROCESS=' + pApp,0);
get.add('REFRESH_LOV_FK_SCHOOL',schoolVal);
get.add('REFRESH_LOV_YEAR',pYear.value);
gReturn = get.get('XML');
if(gReturn && l_Select){
var l_Count = gReturn.getElementsByTagName("option").length;
l_Select.length = 0;
for(var i=0;i<l_Count;i++){
var l_Opt_Xml = gReturn.getElementsByTagName("option");
appendToSelect(l_Select, l_Opt_Xml.getAttribute('value'),
l_Opt_Xml.firstChild.nodeValue)
get = null;
</script>

Bug while saving multi select list

Hi,
My requirement is to construct a region where user can select their answer from available option. answer field can be multiple select/single select or text area.
I have written below query to achieve different type of answer field.
/**query****/

If I select two options from multiple select list it is saving two records into table instead of saving one record with colon delimeter.

END if;
END IF;

/**End**/
Can anyone please help me? Why is it happening? How to tweak my query so that it saves one record with colon delimeter.

Technically, my understanding is that a Shuttle is just two multiselect lists where javascript moves the items from one to the other. Technically its the same thing, just different presentation and methods for selection. When you go to process, its seen the same way as you initially had your code setup so no code changes would have been necessary. As it's a built in item type and with APEX's backwards compatibility policies, if your code works now it should continue to work.

I can't multi select in finder

I initially noticed that I was unable to multi select photos in Aperture. I turned off the One Primary feature but the problem remained. Next I went to the Finder and tried it there. I put the Finder window into List view, selected a document, and held down the Shift key while selecting a second document down the list. The Finder acted as if I was not holding down the Shift key and only selected the second document. Any ideas? I have a 15" Retina MacBook Pro with the latest version of Mountain Lion.

I too have experienced that problem. You might try updating to 10.8.3, which was released today.
If the problem persists:
Change the view. If you were in icon view, change to list. Now see if it works.
Relaunch Finder or restart the computer.
If issues still persist, let me know more details and I'll try to reproduce the issue on my machine.

How can I multi-select texts?

Just as I can do in MS Word.
I want to select separate words in a text object. It's giving me a headache...
Thank you in advance.

You can thouhg use the eyedropper to stylize text noncontiguosly.
zoom in on text (so you can be more precise, as in step 4 you do not see hightling of text)
eyedropper click to samepl text you want to apply
hold down option
drag over text to apply

Safari can't open select pages

My 5 year old 1.87 iMac is having issues where I get the "Safari can not open page" screen on certain sites. So far it's YouTube, Google, and Facebook. And, the content of Yahoo and Flickr pages all gets shoved to the left of the screen. Shutting down the modem temporarily fixes it, which leads me to believe this might have been caused by the latest Comcast (my provider) security change which forced me to contact them to activate. Their tech help has had me try a million things, but no permanent fix. BUT I wonder if this is related to having installed OS 10.6.3 just days prior to this mess. Does anyone have any ideas?
BTW- I have emptied the Cache and reset Safari many times. Neither has made a difference. Only the modem shutoff has helped (as I said, briefly). Thanks!

From the Safari menu bar, select
Safari ▹ Preferences ▹ Extensions
Turn all extensions OFF and test. If the problem is resolved, turn extensions back ON and then disable them one or a few at a time until you find the culprit.
If you wish, you may be able to salvage the malfunctioning extension by uninstalling and reinstalling it. Its settings will revert to their defaults. If the extension still causes a problem, remove it permanently or refer to its developer for support.
If you don't get results from that step, continue.
Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Step 1
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
Enable guest logins and log in as Guest.
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
Step 2
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, or by corruption of certain system caches.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain iMacs. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of steps 1 and 2.

InDesign CS6 on Windows XP. Can't delete selected page?

When i select a page to delete it fails to do so. Instead a random page is deleted. I tried deleting page content first and then deleting the page but the page remains and the content returns. I SAVED and CLOSED after deleting the content, WITHOUT deleting the page, and when i reopen the document and then try to delete the page it still does'nt delete and the content still returns??
The same thing is happening with all my documents - originally created in CS2.
Tried reinstalling - any other ideas anyone?
Thanks.

Does this page contain threaded text? When you delete a page with threaded text the text reflows to fill the remaining pages and will go into overset at the end of the story. If Smart Text Reflow is also enabled, it could be adding the page back again to hold the text.

Can I save selected pages from a PDF into another PDF

In other words:
I have a Pdf with 100 pages and I only want to save 10 pages.
they are continuous i.e. pages 15-28
I have Adobe XI version 11.0.07
Thanks

Hi greg14,
For starters, you will need Acrobat to extract pages from a PDF. (It's not something that you can do with the ExportPDF service.) If you don't have Acrobat, you can download a free 30-day trial from www.adobe.com/products/acrobat.html.
Then, to extract pages, you would follow these steps:
Click on the Tools panel on the right side of the Acrobat window.
Click Pages to expand that category.
Click Extract.
Enter the page range that you want to extract in the From: and To: text boxes.
Click OK. Your pages are extracted into a new file.
Choose File > Save As to save the new file.
I hope that does the trick!
Please let us know if you have additional questions.
Best,
Sara

Can mac auto select pages for print by size

Hello, does anyone knows if there is a way how to set up on Mac auto selecting for printing pages by size? I need it to print loan documents for my notary public business. Using HP laser dual tray printer.

Hello Shane,
I am notary public and I would recieve file with documents that need to be printed on both legal and letter size paper. I used Adobe Acrobat from my husband's Windows computer which sorts the documents by paper size and then print's them out on correct size paper.
The printer I have is HP Laserjet 400 M401n.
Thank you for your help

Why can't I install Pages anymore?

I have a late-2011 version of the Macbook Pro, bought in early 2012 and running OS X Lion 10.7.5. Sometime later in the year I paid $19.99 to download Pages from the App Store as it did not automatically come with my Mac. Recently my hard drive broke and was replaced by Apple under my Apple Care warranty, and now I have to re-install my old apps. When I go to the App Store, under Purchases I can see that Pages is there. But when I click Install, I get the message, "We could not complete your purchase. Pages cannot be installed on Macintosh HD because Mac OS X version 10.9 or later is required."
Seriously?! I already paid a lot for this product and only got two years out of the purchase. I don't want to update to Mavericks just to have Pages.
Why does this problem exist anyway? If I didn't update iTunes, it's not like I wouldn't have access to the music I already purchased. I don't understand why this is the case with the App Store.

Sadly, not much came of that interaction. Each time I received a response it seemed there was something I didn't understand or a word missing in a sentence. Eventually I asked if it was possible for a friend to send me an old version of Pages and if I would be able to link it to my own Apple ID, and I was recommended to talk to the technical department (via a phone number). I'm not comfortable enough with the language of the country I'm living in to give them a call though, so I guess I'll be putting this off for a bit.
For the record I checked Pages in the App Store again, and it seems they have another new version that is only compatible with Yosemite. Glad I didn't bother updating to Mavericks!
Thanks for all your help, Csound1.

I can't open multiple pages anymore like I used to be able to.

I used to be able to click on the x to the right of the web page name to open a second window so I could have two or more sites open simultaneously to flip back and forth. Now I can't do that. The system will open a second page on its own from time to time--like asking this question--but I can't do it myself.

Thanks for your response, disconcerting though it may be.
I guess I'll have to look at other platforms.

Select multiple values in mult-select list

I have the following query as the source for a multi-select page item:
SELECT person.person_id
FROM person, pers_proj_task
WHERE pers_proj_task.person_id = person.person_id
AND pers_proj_task.project_id = :P3_PROJECT_ID
The query returns two records and the page item's session value is 4:3, but only the value 4 is highlighted in the mulit-select list. How can I get both values to be highlighted?

Got it to work for a multi-select item by following Dimitri's post which uses a shuttle example. It was still only highlighting one value, but I tried Patrick Wolf's suggestion from the comments on Dimitri's post to put the pl/sql block in the source of the item rather than as a computation and it worked.
So I now have a multi-select list which has default values pulled from a LOV. The items that are highlighted by default are selected by using the following pl/sql block in the "source/value or expression" of the :P3_PERSON_ID multi-select item:
declare
person_list apex_application_global.vc_arr2;
i number := 1;
begin
for r in ( SELECT person.person_id
FROM person, pers_proj_task
WHERE pers_proj_task.person_id = person.person_id
AND pers_proj_task.project_id = :P3_PROJECT_ID)
loop
person_list(i) := r.person_id;
i := i + 1;
end loop;
return APEX_UTIL.TABLE_TO_STRING(person_list,':');
end;
Thanks to Amanda, ArtS, Dimitri and Patrick.

ADF Table Multi Select Issue

Hi,
I have a read only table with multi select and a panel form based on the same VO. The from has editable component through which the user modifies the data.
When the user selects a single row in the table -> the form shows the corresponding data.
When the user selects multiple rows using cntrl key say ROW_1, ROW_2, ROW_3 the form displays data of ROW_3.
However after this if i click on ROW_1(single row selection) , the form still shows the data of ROW_3. How to show the correct data in from
My Jdev 11.1.1.4
Thanks
Ajay

Well, your use case is somewhat problematic. It doesn't make sense to have an edit form together with a multi select table, as the user can't be sure which row data he sees in the edit form.
This said, you need to know, that the af:table has two properties which should not used together: SelectionListener, selectecRowKey should not used with rowSelection="multiple".
For multiple select table you should not populate these properties. (http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E15523_01/web.1111/b31974/web_tables_forms.htm#sthref2010)
You can e.g. add a column to your table containing a link to allow edit of the row. Then you can use multi selection the normal way.

Parsing Through the Multi Selection Values in a PL/SQL Procedure

Greetings,
This should be an easy one for one of you PL/SQL experts. I'm not, so I am unsure how to code this up.
I have a Multi Selection page item and am passing the value of it to a PL/SQL routine as a parameter. I am able to use the value if I only pass my procedure one value, so I have it working. Just not with multi-values I need the code in the procedure to loop through the values. How do I code that up? The procedure is relatively short and is included below. p_cell is the multi-value parameter.
Oh yes... You probably need to know this. The values are coming in like this - 1-3:2-3:3-3:5:6
Also, the values are the x-y coordinates of a grid I have over an image on the page. The routine removes certain cells (1-3, etc.) from the grid. The grid is created using HTML, so I have to remove lines of HTML to remove a cell from the grid. Just in case that is helpful.
Thx, Tony

Not sure I understood your need, but it sounded like you need to unscramble a string into a set of rows. If so, I would give you 2 ideas:
1. STRING_TO_TABLE function: http://www.sloug.org/i/doc/api073.htm
2. Other ways (Regular expression or XML): http://apex-at-work.blogspot.com/2011/05/two-ways-using-string-to-table-in-apex.html
