Another N00b question....

... sorry for these beginner questions! I searched the Adobe help and did a Google but no clear answer.....
I have several sequences in my project and would like to apply all of the effects that I applied to the first sequence to all of the other sequences in my project. Is there a setting somewhere that will do this for me?
Thanks in advance,
Rich

Rich,
We are very fortunate to have Todd from Adobe around here now. He is the Adobe Help expert, and works hard to improve Help files. If you have a moment, please outline your search criteria, and what results you got. Could be as simple as a boolean error, but might be something that Todd would want to look into. On our parts, adding info like that is a bit more typing, but with Todd's eyes viewing, it might help others in the future.
Good luck, and thanks for taking the time to add a few more details, even though you have your answer.
Hunt
PS - don't tell Todd, but I am still a fan of books, and miss my Adobe printed manuals greatly. Still, I see the benefit of an evergreen, almost instantly updated electronic Help file. They just don't smell the same as my books...

Another newb question: multiple virtual servers

Hi, I have yet another ignorant question. I have several unrelated web projects that I am working on, and I would like to be able to set up a virtual server for each one for testing purposes, such as: http://project1, http://project2, http://project3. Can someone tell me if this is doable, and if there are any tutorials/resources on this for someone who has 0 experience running a web serer? Sorry for being so ignorant!

Yes, it is doable.
You can setup virtual server either by IP or by name.
If you have one IP, and want to set them up by name (ex. http://project1, http://project2, http://project3) you can do so easily with this type of configuration:
<virtual-server>
    <name>mydomain</name>
    <http-listener-name>http-listener-1</http-listener-name>
    <host>*.mydomain.com</host>
    <document-root>/www/domain</document-root>
</virtual-server>
<virtual-server>
    <name>myotherdomain</name>
    <http-listener-name>http-listener-1</http-listener-name>
    <host>*.myotherdomain.com</host>
    <document-root>/www/myotherdomain</document-root>
</virtual-server>
....The important part here is that
a) all virtual servers share the same HTTP listener
b) which virtual server serves the request depends on the $HOST request header send by the client. Sun Web Server does the matching for you. It will match $HOST vs. the virtual server's host attribute. Depending on which site you connect to the right virtual server will be used.
c) if the $HOST request header does not match any of the virtual servers, then the default virtual server defined in the HTTP listener will be used.
To create a virtual server, use the Admin GUI, access the configuration, and then add new virtual server. Or use the following CLI command.
wadm> create-virtual-server --config=myconfig --http-listener-name=http-listener-1 --document-root=/www/docs/myserver.com --host-pattern=myserver.com --log-file=../logs/myserver.com-error_logs myserverHost pattern will be used for matching. Some of this elements might be optional.
Hope that helps. And keep the questions coming :D
Edit: Also check the documentation
Using Virtual Servers in SJS Web Server 7.0

Yet another standby question...

Hi gurus,
Please help to resolve the quiz. I have completed manual physical standby installation. It is up and running. I then decided to install Grid Control and to use Data Guard for the standby creation. I've successfully installed GC, deployed all agents, I can see my previous standbys, life is good in short. Now, when I am trying to create the second standby for my production database using the Data Guard I stuck on a logical question:
On the step 3 of Data Guard standby creation, there is a note, saying:
The instance name (also referred to as the SID) must be unique on the standby host.
Yeah, fair enough. But i can't understand what should I do next? I have:
db_name YELLOW - primary prod
db_name YELLOW - standby prod 1st
and i need db_name YELLOW - standby 2nd
But I can't create it on the same server where the first standby resides.. What options do I have? Do I need to create the second standby on another server? Do I need to kill 1st standby? Is there any way to avoid this conflict? I am confused. I have no equipment for TWO standby servers... I thought I can install there up to 9 standbys.. But it seems to be a problem.. And definitely, I cannot give my second standby other name than YELLOW as all my applications are strongly tied on db_name...
Friends, please clarify this if you can. I am kinda lost in here..
Thanks as usual,
Maria

well, that's a good question! :)
because I don't have spare server for the standby. the question is not about: 'should I or should not put more than one standbys in one server' , but more about: 'is there any way to put two standbys with the identical db_names in one server'. I know that I probably sound unprofessional, but I just wanna know.. If the answer is 'no way', I will kill the first standby then and recreate the second one using DG with the correct name.
Thanks for writing to me,
M.

Re: another build question! (sorry lol)

Hi all
right, after days and days of researching all the excellent articles on here ive had to write a post! So apologies for going over old ground
Im going to build a new CS5.5 rig (having had a guts full of Apple and their FCPX fiasco its back to pc!)
so although i appreciate the 990x o'c is prob best option, bang for buck is leading me down the sandybridge i7 2600k o'c option on p67 mobo with 16gb of ram (option to take to 32 down the line when the chips are out)
anyway, im sorted on chip mobo (msi big bang marshal p67), nivida 570 etc , its the drives im struggling on!! Im edit avchd video and some after effects, small amount of 3d, and in FCP i always transcoded everything to prores. Now on cs5.5 it looks like real time performance is possible with high end hardwear.
So mobo, ram, and chip aside, my HDD config im unsure on, ive not really got the cash to go crazy with raid controllors etc, but understand need for seperate drives, etc and tbh might even go downt he cineform route as a prores alternative (prob avoiding hassles of drive speed with avchd)
im thinking as the SSD's are now dropping in price and the ocz are producing these 500 mb r/w speed sata 6 120gb drives for a reasonable price, would 3 of these drives (one for os, one for media , one for scracth disk ) be a good set up or is it a waste of cash and should i raid 0 from bios/mobo?
I appreicate that 120 gb drives for media etc are small, but i would take project media from another much large backup drive and just use the 3x ssd set up as working disks for editing & os? once project over, clear out drives to larger back up and start new project!
Its either that or i go SSD as bootdrive, but some sort of cheap raid set up for my scratch disk, media drives? prob is if i do that, from what ive read (brain dead now) i would be best off with 2 x raid 0 as scratch disk and orginal media respectively when workign with avchd
HOWEVER, on my mobo there are only 4 sata 6 ports, so if i use one for ssd boot drive, and then im left with 3 x sata 6 ports and another 4 x sata 3 ports to raid on? how does this work? any point in getting the sata 6 drives as one would be stripped with a sata 6 drive plugged into a sata 3 port (this was my reasoning behind using 3 small sata 6 ssd's plugged to the sata 6 ports and rest of sata 3 ports as storage and backups!
confused lol!! I just want the overclocked sandybridge system with decent gpu card, as much ram as possible at present, but im thinking my bottleneck will be in the HDD config! any suggestions are much appreicated! im not that techy so whilst have read all the articles am more confused now (plus normally a mac user, so its out of the box configuration usually!) for what its worth looking to purchase something from scan uk in terms of parts! total build cost including a reasonable screen £2,000
many thanks

You have a limited budget, especially in the UK, but then don't we all?
Going for the 980X will triple the cost of the CPU, but even when editing AVCHD material the gains are not sizable enough IMO to justify that cost differential. Add to that you will need 24 GB instead of 16 GB and that carries an additional price tag. Both factors will easily move you out of budget range if you want to have a number of disks and possibly a raid controller.
Did you read my article To Raid or not to Raid, that is the question. It can be found under the Overview tab at the top of the page? (Currently responding from abroad on my notebook and not having the bookmarks available for easy linking). http://forums.adobe.com/thread/525263
With media and projects I would advise against a raid0, because of the lack of redundancy. For pagefile, media cache and previews (scratch disks) raid0 is quite OK. They will be recreated if needed. The performance gain from a raid0 for media and projects over a parity raid is easily offset by the time spent on making backups. For parity raids do not use WD Caviar Blacks, but look at the Hitachi 7K3000 line of disks.
The question of Sandy Bridge versus the old X58 platform is essentially one of 'which limitations are acceptable to me'.
The Sandy Bridge is a great processor and at least the equal to the old i7-9xx quad cores. However, the platform, the chipset, has its shortcomings in terms of PCIe lanes. Whether that is relevant to you, only you can decide. But hey, we would be in serious trouble if Intel did not manage some progress in two years time from the i7-920 to the i7-2600K. So of course the i7-2600K shows much more potential than the almost retired 920, it is the chipset for the Sandy Bridge that is 'flawed' in comparison to the X58, but that is no surprise, since the Sandy Bridge is a 'middle-of-the-road' platform and the X58 was a 'high performance' platform.
BFTB-wise I think that within your budget limits, you should look at the i7-2600K, but with the best disk setup you can afford.

Another Noobie question - readLine()

Hi all
This is another one of the extreme noob questions. I wrote a small program to read form a text file
    String NetworkLine = new String();
    try{
        FileReader inputFile = new FileReader("Test.txt"); //
        BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(inputFile);
       try{
           while (in.readLine() != null){
            NetworkLine = in.readLine();
            System.out.println(NetworkLine);
       }catch (IOException e){
            System.err.println("Error in reading the file");
    }catch (FileNotFoundException e){
        e.printStackTrace();
    }My Test.txt is
One
Two
Three
Four
Five
Six
without the *
The output I get is
Two
Four
Six
I cannot figure out why only even no. lines are being read. I inserted a breakpoint at the line
          System.out.println(NetworkLine);This shows me that only even no. lines are being read by readLine(). Any help will be appreaciated.
Thanks
Ayesha

    String NetworkLine = new String();
    try{
        FileReader inputFile = new FileReader("Test.txt"); //
        BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(inputFile);
       try{
           while (in.readLine() != null){ // <-- This reads a line, checks it for null ,and drops it
            NetworkLine = in.readLine(); // <-- this reads the next line
            System.out.println(NetworkLine);
       }catch (IOException e){
            System.err.println("Error in reading the file");
    }catch (FileNotFoundException e){
        e.printStackTrace();
    }So the upshot is that you print every other line.
Corrected:
    String networkLine = new String();
    try{
        FileReader inputFile = new FileReader("Test.txt"); //
        BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(inputFile);
       try{
           while ((networkLine = in.readLine()) != null){
            System.out.println(networkLine);
       }catch (IOException e){
            System.err.println("Error in reading the file");
    }catch (FileNotFoundException e){
        e.printStackTrace();
    }

Another beginner question about targeting functions

I've read what I thought was an excellent thread about scope in EA, but I'm still not getting some of the basics (btw the thread was http://forums.adobe.com/message/5287753#5287753).
I have "slides" in the symbol library and in the main composition compositionReady script I've set up a generic script for playing back sound. That script works fine when I bind it within the compositionReady script to a symbol and click, so I know the funciton itself is fine. My question, I'm programmatically loading the slides from the library as I go along and want to use the generic function I created in the compositionReady script, but I can't seem to create the proper syntax to call the script. Here's some that I have tried. What is the correct syntax? The script is on frame inside the slide symbol.
//sym.getComposition().getStage().playSound();
//sym.getComposition().playSound();
//Edge.getComposition("CER_1").playSound();

Thanks for having a look. Yea, it's getting to the script fine but it doesn't like the syntax. Console always indicates javascript error, which is what happens when Edge throws an exception because it doesn't know what to do. The article that Elaine posted on above gives me the sense that it might be best to change the function to a variable, then it would be in scope to call but I have parameters I'd like to pass with it and I don't think I can pass a parameter with to a variabalized (word?) function. I know it's just me moving from ActionScript to Edge JavaScript and scope. Whereas I could always find a homebase in ActionScript with the stage, it seems that the stage in Edge is just another symbol and calling a function within the stage is never getting there. Elaine hints at putting outside the stage closure and it would be accessible, which, of course, has led me to start readying JavaScript books and learning more about scope etc. It seems like that is life as a developer. I dont' get that, oh, better take a day or two to understand that concept, oh, that function works now, next problem. ;-)

N00b question re: Library.iPhoto

Hi everyone,
Been lurking here for a couple of weeks and haven't seen this addressed yet...
I'm testing the waters with iPhoto after M$ bought up my favourite cataloging app iView, and I've a question about the files "Library.iPhoto" and "Library6.iPhoto" within the iPhoto Library Package.
Are these the database files for my Photos? If they were to become corrupt could I trash them?
My thinking is that iPhoto would rebuild the files upon relaunch but I don't to test that until I know a little more of what I'm talking about.
Thanks in advance for any direction on this...

It's not that complicated, and you know, the size of the photos - whether they come from a camera phone or a 20 megapixel dslr doesn't matter a whit.
If the database files get corrupted you have three courses of action - and I suggest you would use them in this order:
1. Copy the library6.iphoto file from a back up to the iPhoto Library (Right Click -> Show Package Contents) allowing it to overwrite the damaged file.
if that's not possible:
2. Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.
If that didn't work:
3. You would need to create and populate a new library.
To create and populate a new library:
Note this will give you a working library with the same Events and pictures as before, however, you will lose your albums, keywords, modified versions, books, calendars etc.
In the iPhoto Preferences -> Events Uncheck the box at 'Imported Items from the Finder'
Move the iPhoto Library to the desktop
Launch iPhoto. It will ask if you wish to create a new Library. Say Yes.
Go into the iPhoto Library (Right Click -> Show Package Contents) on your desktop and find the Originals folder. From the Originals folder drag the individual Event Folders to the iPhoto Window and it will recreate them in the new library.
When you're sure all is well you can delete the iPhoto Library on your desktop.
So, those are your options in the event of a database failure.
Note that your photos, which are stored in the Finder are not affected by the database file being damaged.
Yes, email is easier with iPhoto (and the same is true of Aperture too)
There are many, many ways to access your files in iPhoto:
For 10.5 users: You can use any Open / Attach / Browse dialogue. On the left there's a Media heading, your pics can be accessed there. Apple-Click for selecting multiple pics.
Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
To upload to a site that does not have an iPhoto Export Plug-in the recommended way is to Select the Pic in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export and export the pic to the desktop, then upload from there. After the upload you can trash the pic on the desktop. It's only a copy and your original is safe in iPhoto.
This is also true for emailing with Web-based services. If you're using Gmail you can use THIS
If you use Apple's Mail, Entourage, AOL or Eudora you can email from within iPhoto. With 10.5 you can access the Library from the New Message Window in Mail:
Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
If you use a Cocoa-based Browser such as Safari, you can drag the pics from the iPhoto Window to the Attach window in the browser.
Or, if you want to access the files with iPhoto not running, then create a Media Browser using Automator (takes about 10 seconds) or use THIS
Other options include:
1. *Drag and Drop*: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic.
2. *File -> Export*: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size. Again, producing a copy.
3. *Show File*: Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.
You can set Photoshop (or any image editor) as an external editor in iPhoto. (Preferences -> General -> Edit Photo: Choose from the Drop Down Menu.) This way, when you double click a pic to edit in iPhoto it will open automatically in Photoshop or your Image Editor, and when you save it it's sent back to iPhoto automatically. This is the only way that edits made in another application will be displayed in iPhoto.

    EXPORTING
      #1 = p_file
      #2 = 1.
FREE OBJECT gv_cell.
FREE OBJECT gv_excel.
FREE OBJECT gv_books.
FREE OBJECT gv_sheet.
CALL METHOD OF gv_excel 'QUIT'.
the question is, why the excel process is not kill in the task manager?

Hi ,
i think Rich is right.
another problem could be if you've used an object to
save your data:
like :
CALL METHOD OF H_EXCEL 'Save' = h_save.
so you've to free this too:
FREE OBJECT H_save.

Windows 7 Another Preorder Question :)

Ok bestbuy.com has taken out the 108$ deposit and now the order is confirmed so does
bestbuy.com hold the Funds and use them when it ships or can i use the 108$ for something
else now since the order is done and i Can just put another 108$ in there for them to take it
out on 10/22/09 the release date or when it ships
i need to know if i can do this thanks

Well you can purchase either an upgrade or a full copy. Difference is, one has to be upgraded from a previous operating system (XP or Vista) and the other can do a clean install without the need to have a previous operating system. The Windows 7 Upgrade program provides you with an upgrade copy of Windows 7.

ANOTHER formats question...

I've been using Streamclip to convert mpeg2's to Quicktime. I've experimented with Apple MPEG4 and Sorenson 3. Not the jpeg format so much.
My question: which is the best format for keeping the file size about the same and losing the least video quality? These files are for multiple purposes. Some will be used on the internet and others will find their way onto dvds.
Is the option from streamclip to DV good for Final Cut and Quicktime?
I realize the short answer to my question is that it totally depends on what I want the file for. But what I'm really looking for is a primer on the diff between Sorenson, MP4, JPEG-A(B)....etc.
I'm moving toward using h.264 for everything, but not everyone has qt7 - you know?

My question: which is the best format for keeping the file size about the same and losing the least video quality? These files are for multiple purposes. Some will be used on the internet and others will find their way onto dvds.
Everybody has their own picks. However, you might also want to consider the fact that not everybody has upgraded to latest QuickTime Player.
My general pick would be Sorenson Video 3 for general purposes. Sorenson Video 3 performed better (in terms of quality) then MPEG 4 when you limit the bitrate to some small number (i.e. small filesize). As for DVDs, you might want to export in another format for it.
Is the option from streamclip to DV good for Final Cut and Quicktime?
It is, assume the original file is good quality.
But what I'm really looking for is a primer on the diff between Sorenson, MP4, JPEG-A(B)....etc.
I made this page awhile back, you might find it useful.

Another resolution question.....sorry

Thanks to Zac and Bogie for helping me out with the whole resolution questions but I do have one more....sorry. Do I need to log and capture in FCP in order to import the file into compressor to change the codec or is there another way? Maybe direct from the camera so it doesn;t get any more compressed than it is?
Thanks again for putting up with me
Rick

If you shot on DV, for example, capturing it isn't compressing more. It is what it is. You shot it DV, it is DV. What's on the tape isn't "better" than what gets captured to your hard drive.
Anyway, yes, you have to capture or ingest the footage or have some sort of existing movie file to put it into Compressor. You can't take it from the camera directly.

N00b question about UCM/Stellant

Hi,
I'm a total UCM/Stellant n00b so please forgive me if these questions seem very basic.
I've successfully installed Oracle Content Server 10gR3 (10.1.3.3.3). I was able to create a new content item which is just an image. However, I am having trouble publishing it to a file system. A Google search indicated that I may need the Content Publisher module to do any publishing. I searched Oracle’s content management download site and can’t find anything on Content Publisher.
Do I need this "Content Publisher" thing to publish to a file system or am I missing something more obvious?
Thanks,
Chris Bucchere
http://www.thebdgway.com

Well, other CMSs that I've used tend to work like this:
1) You build a form
2) You build a presentation template
3) You fill out the form with data
4) You associate the form with the appropriate presentation template
5) You hit "publish" (or something to that effect)
When the "publish" occurs, the CMS grabs the data you entered in the form, formats it using the presentation template and generates a resulting piece of static content, be that an HTML page, a Word document, or whatever.
When I say "publish to the file system" I essentially mean that in Stellent I've accomplished steps 1-4 and I can't figure out how to do step 5 without going back and installing additional products like "Content Publisher," whatever that is. I just want to be able to see the resulting static HTML from a "publish" action on my file system somewhere. That's all.
Again, forgive me if I'm being ignorant. I've worked with Hablador (Plumtree Publisher), Radiant CMS and a few others (including a homegrown CMS that I built in Ruby on Rails), but I've never used Stellent before.

Another 5GHz question

I have an older Extreme, not Simultaneous, that is upstairs and an iPad that lives downstairs with an old iBook G4. The iBook doesn't have much problem with its 802.11G connection over 2.4 GHz but the iPad is often weak. I'm thinking of getting a new Extreme so I can run both Bands. I'm also hoping the newer antenna will cover the house better. Going out on the deck with the iPad is almost impossible.
Question is - if coverage is still spotty can I use the old Extreme to extend the network and pick which Band for it to extend?
Thanks for any info.

+It's the square version; does both bands, just not simultaneous. I already have Ethernet down to my Entertainment Center so my plan was to relocate the older Extreme down there. But now, as I think about it, would I actually be setting up another wireless network?+
Ethernet will work much better to connect the Extremes together. Technically, you would be setting up another wireless network...but, if you configure this network with exactly the same wireless network name, security and password, then you will in effect, have a much larger wireless network. Computers and devices can "roam" from one area to another and stay on the same network. For this to occur, the older Extreme will need to be configured as a "bridge".
+Would that work; wire the two Extremes together and have the newer broadcast from both bands and the older put out just 5GHz+
Yes, you could try 5 GHz on the older Extreme to see if that provides the coverage you need. Keep in mind that you may need to use 2.4 GHz on this device because this signal is stronger and penetrates obstructions much more effectively than 5 GHz, which is more of a line-of-sight deal.
Post back if you need step by step to configure the older Extreme. It's a bit tricky and users get confused easily here. One of the reasons for this is that you do not use the "extend a wireless network" setting, as you might think.

Another N00b question....
