Anyone else having screen/window resolution issues in windows 8.1?

Hi,
I have Indesign CC 64-bit, on a Dell XPS18. I upgraded(?) to Windows 8.1.
Since then the Indesign screens show at a lower res than other windows - that's menus and everything, not just the page content.
Any help appreciated.
Ed

That led me to the solution - thanks! I followed the Compatability Troubleshooter and checked the Disable display scaling on high DPI settings.
Much better!
Thanks again.
Ed

Is anyone else having Config error 16 issue when trying to start PSE 12 or Premier Elements after Mac upgrade to Yosemite 10.10 on iMac

Is anyone else having Config error 16 issue when trying to start PSE 12 or Premier Elements 12 after the Mac upgrade to OS X Yosemite 10.10 on iMac. I have had a number of issues with software and things after upgrading to OS X Yosemite 10.10 and even 10.10.1. I have uninstalled and reinstalled both PSE 12 and Premier Elements 12 a number of times and everything goes fine until its ready to launch and then you get an error message. Numerous uninstalled and reinstalls don't removing the problem. Strangely enough PSE 11 still appears to boot up and I never owned Premier Elements 11 so I don't know if it will start. I thought with Apple dropping its Apeture software and greater integration of iPhoto and Apeture files into Lightroom 5.7 all would be harmonious between these two players. Im not sure where Adobe wants us to go it recently removed the plugin to allow you to update files from LR to Adobe Revel, whats up with that. I now own two version of Adobe software that no longer work with my Mac and now way of uploading pictures from Lightroom to Revel. Needless to say I am pretty reluctant to sign on to a subscription of Creative Cloud with long term financial obligations when I can't even get my current Adobe software to work independently much less integrate with Lightroom. Frustrated with it all!

Get rid of 'put disks to sleep when possible' and you may see a dramatic improvement (not necessarily a cure).
That specific problem is a multiple-Processor (including graphics processor) problem, where one of the processors lost track of whether it should be responding to interrupts. You may have a Hardware problem.

Is anyone else having iPad 2 wireless issues?

I'm on my second iPad 2, the first one had issues staying connected to my airport extreme and had very slow download and upload speeds. The apple store replaced it and the second one seemed to stay connected fine but was still very slow on the internet compared to my iPhone and iMac. I use Speed Test and have repeatedly seen very slow speed results when testing all three devices one after the other. Now it seems that the issue with connectivity is getting worse and the speed test remain very slow in comparison. I did a test on my iPhone today are got very fast speed and the iPad 2 wouldn't even connect to the wireless. This is very frustrating as I decided to spend the extra $ for the wireless feature. Anyone else having these issues and what would you do? Any fixes or updates coming soon from Apple? Love the devise otherwise.

My iPad2 has recently experieced dropped connectivity problems as well. At first I thought it was an issue because I just got my wife the 4th gen iPad and as soon as she started using it I started having these problems. I can connect if I'm sitting next to the router (Time Capsule), but if I move out more than twenty feet the connection gets weaker and eventually disconnects. This only happens with the iPad2, my wife's original iPad still maintains a strong signal as does her new one, same with all the MacBook Pros we have. It's not the router since I have tried it with others with the same result.
I have done all the suggested steps by Apple User Maunual and by Discussion groups members
1. rebooted the iPad2 and Time Capsule
2. Reset Network settings
3. Established separate channel 6 for 2.4ghz versus 5.ghz
4. Shut off Auto- Brightness and turn up Brightness to full.
5. I even wiped all the data, apps, etc clean and started over.
I still have the problem. Quite frustrating to say the least. There still may be an issue between 2.4ghz devices and those that are also 5.ghz, but I haven't solved it yet. Or maybe it's a hardware antenna issue.

Is anyone else having random file access issues? including "Element not found" error?

I don;t know what the @#$ is going on with this device, but for example:
user A creates a folder in their area(under a share with RW rights)
Everything is great..
They come in on day2, and all of a sudden, they get "Access denied" on the (excel) file
Typically, if I re-apply full rights for them using windows permissions, it "fixes" it.
Today, I went to modify a excel spreasheet that I've been using for a week or so, and boom, access denied
and effective permissions indicate that very thing: no rights.
I attempted to re-apply rights to my home directory, and on that particulat .xls, got a "Element not found" message.
I'm sad that I've had SO much trouble with this device.
I re-sycned with A/D just for kicks, no help.
It syncs with A/D daily
I've had so many of these related permissions issues, we're likel;y scrapping the Lenovo for a windows server, but I figured I'll see if anyone else is dealing with this message..
I'm also open to the fact that it could be our A/D I suppose..

Sorry to reply to such an old topic, but I am having exactly the same issue. Did you ever find a fix? We are reapplying all the parent folder settings every morning to bandaid the situation, but it is becoming a little ridiculous...
We have our settings so that a file administrator has full access to everyone's files, and each individual has full access to their own folder. The folder settings never change, but the files seem to lose the user's access permission periodically after being opened or edited (haven't narrowed down the exact cause, but has never happened to files that haven't been accessed, but doesn't always happen to files that have been accessed). One odd thing that might have something to do with it, the ownership of files keeps defaulting to a generic 63353/UNIX instead of the creator of the file or the owner of the parent folder (which is set the way we want). We are currently experiementing with changing it, but it seems ike if we set the owner to the user, the file administrator randomly loses access, if we set to the file admin, the user randomly loses access. I think we might be can bandaid the situation from the user's perspective with this, but it doesn't seem to fix the initial issue, that the folder permissions won't stay set.

Anyone else having repeated wifi connectivity issues with the OSX version 10.8.5?

I just updated the software on my iMac to OS X version 10.8.5. Now I am having repeated connectivity issues with the wifi in my house. This is the only device that is having these issues. My phone, ipad and tv are not having any problems at all.
It happened immediately following the update. I was sending emails and browsing before the update without a problem.
from apple:

I had a message like that last week - only it asked what browser I would be using - I just quit safari - purges caches etc - and at that time noticed I was getting RSS feeds through PUBSUB - tracking them down to the top sites view I never use - I deleted all of the top sites (most of which I don't go into so it must have been a preset) that included MSN and Google - I don't use google so that was pointless. (deleting a top site means you are blocking it from that page) Have not had the message since so it must have had something to do with top sites activity.
Just a note: Did see somewhere probably BBC tech - that Google was going to stop supporting older web browsers.

Anyone else having wifi drop out issues with their iPad 3?

Right from the word 'go' I have experienced frequent losses in wifi connectivity on my iPad 3 (64Gb, 4G). Fortunately I don't have to keep re-entering my wifi password but I do have to keep renewing the lease which is really tedious. My iPad 2 works flawlessly on the same network (Netgear cable modem/router from Virginmedia). I also have an iPod Touch and an iPhone that also work without issues on this set up. Thus far I have tried:
Rebooting the modem
Restoring the iPad 3
Resetting the network settings on the iPad 3
Changing the channel on the router from 'auto' to various other channels
Switching between WPA and WEP encryption on the router
Turning off the auto brightness (a tip I saw that worked on some of the earlier iPads)
None of the above have helped and after three calls to Apple support I have received a replacement iPad 3 which has exactly the same problem? People talk about replacing one's router as a potential solution but my options are limited because this is a combination cable unit supplied by Virginmedia. Also, the issue points pretty clearly to the iPad 3 because, as I mention, my other Apple products work flawlessly. I'm going abroad shortly and I'm thinking of leaving the iPad 3 at home if I can't sort out its wifi capabilities.
Any ideas?

Look at iOS Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398
Additional things to try.
Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
On your iPad go to Settings > General > Reset > Reset network settings and see if that enables you to connect.
If none of the above suggestions work, look at this link.

HT4623 Is anyone else having issues with scaling down photos to fit the screen for home and lock screens with ios7??

Is anyone else having issues with scaling down photos to fit the screen for home and lock screens with ios7?? Installed ios7 this morning. Tried to use one of my photos from camera roll as background for lock screen and I can't scale the photo to fit the screen. Never had a problem before and now when I pinch the photo to get it to the right size of the screen, it won't stay that way. The photo is enlarged way beyond the screen size so it doesn't look right. Does anyone know how to fix this?

Hello, cliffiapp4.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
Here are the steps that I would recommend going through when experiencing this issue.
Resolution
If a single application is not responding or stops responding when it opens, you can force it to close.
If the device is unresponsive or if certain controls aren't working as expected, restart your device.
If the device remains unresponsive or does not turn on (or power on), reset your device.
If the above steps do not resolve the issue, contact Apple.

When safari is in full screen mode and I move the mouse to the top of the screen to bring up the menu bar and the bookmark bar, it does nothing. Is anyone else having this issue?

When safari is in full screen mode and I move the mouse to the top of the screen to bring up the menu bar and the bookmark bar, it does nothing. Is anyone else having this issue?
Thanks

I just tested that since I hardly ever use full screen mode, this was the first time since I upgraded to Mountain Lion, and it worked fine for me.
Try shutting Safari down and see if that changes anything.
If that doesn't change anything, try shutting down and then rebooting.

Is anyone else having an issue with Muse 2014.2 Freezing/Crashing at launch? It worked perfectly up until tonight and nothing has changed on my computer. I'm running windows 8.1. I've tried logging in and out of CC, I've uninstalled and reinstalled Muse twice with no change. Please advise. Thanks!

Are you getting any error when Muse crashes? what's the one function it lets you do before it freezes?

Is anyone else having issues getting screensavers and the lock screen to work after installing Mavericks?

I recently installed Mavericks and now my computer refuses to lock after sleep. Instead of a box that asks for a password to access the computer again, it just opens up back to where it was before sleep. In fact, I can't even get my screensaver to work. I have the screensaver set to one minute (to attempt to get it to work) and it wouldn't even come on. The sleep/lock screen is set to ask for password as soon as it's woken. Same goes for when I open my laptop after it's last use. No password, just instantly on. Is anyone else having this issue? If so, how can I fix it? Thanks!

I had the exact same problem.. and thank you for the answer..
It actually makes sense, but I had the 'bouncing camera' problem and never thought of the 'slide'..
Dohhhhh
cheers for the post

We have an iPad mini, since we updated it with ios7, it no longer picks up our wifi. It doesn't even list my network on the wifi screen anymore. Is anyone else having a similar issue?

We have an iPad mini, since updating to ios 7, the iPad no longer picks up my network. My iPhone 4 was having a similar issue, but it was picking up my network. I was able to find a fix to the iPhone, but the nothing is working for our iPad. Is anyone else having a problem like this? Is there a fix?

Reset the device:
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings
If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings
You will have to re enter the Wi-Fi password.
If that doesn't help, try here > iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections

Is anyone else having bug issues with InDesign?

I'm trying to do homework with the version I purchased, and I keep running into bugs. Everything is extremely slow. When I scroll, zoom, and move an object, the program keeps skipping on me. When I place an image from Illustrator, there are other paths that show up that were not on the original image. And with those same images, the strokes and fills are all read as red slashes. They should be question marks since they are a combination of paths. And lastly, when I try to use the eye dropper to copy the color of a placed image, I get a popup saying, "Image is a vector graphic. Eyedropper values based on low resolution RGB proxy."
I think there might be some bug in InDesign, and it's really hard for me to work. It can't be my computer. I have Illustrator as well, and that one works fine despite scrolling speed. So is anyone else having these problems, or might there be something wrong with my version?

I use CS6 on Windows 7.
My default interface preference was set to Live Screen Drawing: Delayed. I tried changing from that, it was the same deal. I have noticed though, that performance is a lot slower when Display Performance under Object.
For the extra lines showing up, I can't seem to find that same problem again, so I can't use a screenshot.
SRiegal, I don't get what you mean by copying the colors. If you say that InDesign cannot copy the color of vector graphics, then how can I recreate them not knowing the exact values?

Purchased my computer just before new ones came out in Oct. It runs slow and shows Gray screen sometimes when I open it. Anyone else having this problem?

I have a new but 2010 model. It operates very slow and has gray screen occassionaly. One store said it's "safe sleep", the other graphic board. Is anyone else having this problem with computer only 4 mos. old?

Your problems may be caused by software or hardware, including the gray screen and the slowness. The intermittent gray screen is a puzzler and probably is hardware. TUSL2C’s diagnosis may be right on the money. A question is how to isolate it to HW or SW that so you can get good service?
The obvious cheap and easy fix is to replace that cable but I don’t think you can do that because it is under warranty. There are other ways to isolate the problem that won’t void the warranty.
If the disk turns out to be healthy and it continues to boot to a gray screen then that will be a sign that internal hardware, other than the disk, is to blame. Since they are blaming it on software we will be able to test it with a pristine OS X installation that has no 3rd-party software to blame.
> They are calling it "Safe Sleep Mode" and that happens if I don't use the machine within 4 hours.
The machine should go to sleep and wake up almost instantly every time without a gray screen. If you can demonstrate the problem reliably by putting it to sleep and waking it up then that will be most useful. We will show it failing on pristine OS X software without 3rd-party mods to prove it is an Apple problem. Similarly if you can reliably show the gray screen from a power-on boot that will help.
My first question is do you have a current Time Machine (or other) backup? If not you should create one before we get to steps that could stress the disk. If it is a faulty cable or a faulty disk then the system could stop functioning at any time. It is always prudent to maintain a current backup and especially important when the system is sick. If you do not have a Time Machine (or other) backup then post back for instructions on how to create one.
In the mean time please download and run Etrecheck and post back the results.
http://www.etresoft.com/etrecheck
This will indicate possible software compatibles and other details that may be helpful in a diagnosis.
Also run disk diagnostics with Disk Utility. This will check if the disk and filesystem are healthy.
From the Finder, pull down on the Go menu to Utilities. This will open the Applications > Utilities folder.
Then run Disk Utility.
Click on the upper left disk icon.
Does the S.M.A.R.T. status say “Verified”.
If not the disk/SSD is unhealthy and needs to be replaced.
Click on the icon indented below, usually called “Macintosh HD”.
Verify Disk.
If it finishes with a green “OK” message then all is well with the disk.
If it shows errors in red then you may have found a problem.
Click on Repair Disk Permissions.
It will give lots of messages in black and white, which are OK.
If it gives any messages in red then there is an issue to address.
It will be useful to have some test that shows the slow speed that uses standard OS X applications such as Pages, Numbers, Presenter, iTunes, iMovie... or even just the Finder opening windows or starting applications. We can then use that test when isolating the source of the slowness.
How many seconds does it take to boot from power-on to either the login screen or the Finder is up? Please time that. It is a good speed test. If it is over a minute then something is wrong.
One way to isolate the issues will be to sandbox it using another disk to test what happens with different software on different hardware disks in different locations. That will not void the warranty.
But before going there or proceeding further let’s look at the Etrecheck and Disk Utility results, ensure the system is backed up, and then try some other standard tests.

Anyone else having issues writting string "memo" fields to Access 2007-2010 or SQL Server Express 2008-2012?

I have a data cluster that I am working to write to either Access 2007 thru 2010 and/or SQL Server Express 2008 thru 2012 all on a Windows 7 64 bit OS. Some of the elements are long strings that I put delimited data for the raw trace data. The fields can be 10's of KB long. With Access I cannot stuff any string >255char into the memo field. With SQL Server Express 2008R2 - 2012 I found that if the strings are >32767 they again fail to fill the memo fields. The Access write or reads work fine otherwise, just not the listed offending fields in the cases mentioned. Anyone else having the issue or a solution?

If the long string field has repetitive data, you might be able to compress it using GZIP to reduce it's size below the 32K limitation you mentioned.
