Anyone else order Missing Manual v4 direct from oreilly site?

I preordered a copy of the version 4 Missing Manual from oreilly.com (which said estimated date October 2005) in hopes of receiving it as soon as possible. I have students who have purchased v4, so I am anxious to have the book in order to better assist them.
Currently I am unable to get an estimated ship date from the oreilly customer support; my response from them used vague words like waiting for replenishment of stock. So I am wondering if anyone else ordered direct from oreilly and what their experience is?

Thought that I would come back to this thread and post that my Missing Manual for Elements 4 has just arrived.
As an aside, I will also mention that the tracking at the oreilly site was never updated to show progress of my order. This was a very frustrating ordering experience, but at least the book finally arrived.
Yesterday someone posted that she had received this book from Amazon, so it seems that multiple sources are starting to ship.

Did anyone else order a Zen MP3 Player from Dell and not receive key piec

I ordered my Creative Zen Vision M on Monday from Dell and received it today sans the power adapter and Quick Start Guide. Has this happened to anyone else? I had to spend 30 minutes on the phone with Dell only to have them send me here.

I've just looked at the US Dell site and it lists a power adaptor there so I would say it's down to them to provide one. In the UK we have a Sale of Goods Act we can call on in these situations.
I would get a copy of the Dell web page for the Vision: M you bought and then phone them up to see what they will do about it.
I still reckon it's Dell's problem, not Creative's. After all, it's Dell who said the power adaptor should be included not Creative as there web site doesn't list it. The reason it's in the manual is the one I gave above about Creative reducing the package contents after a while to cut the cost and make it more competiti've.
I had a similar problem with a V200 I bought in the UK but from a French-owned retailer. The website said it would have a case and armband and it didn't - when I went back to the website the description had been changed so I didn't get anywhere.
Good luck

Has anyone else received a phishing, "Urgent Alert From Apple Support"? It came to my actual iCloud email address.

The message is very clearly bogus, full of errors of every kind, right from the start: "Dear Apple Custumer,"
The fact that it came to my own iCloud address worries me since usually such schemes are to a broad group, like "[email protected]"
I have forwarded the email, with Long Headers, to the fraud-combating websites. Can't find any hint on apple.com/support as to where at Apple itself to direct it.

Re: Has anyone else received a phishing, "Urgent Alert From Apple Support"? It came to my actual iCloud email address.
YES today in the UK, the email text is as below, together with several Links to "Apple" sites and an Apple logo and European support address.
Fairly crude but could fool naive users.
Any one know how to get to the addresses behind the links without clicking them? Just copying and pasting as plain text doesn't seem to work. Any other way just copies the Hyperlink.

Anyone else order their iphone online?

Hi,
My friend at work was smitten with my iPhone and ordered one online, it says an estimated 2-4 week ship. Did anyone else order one online and get any different information from apple on maybe getting them sooner?
iBookvG4 Mac OS X (10.4.10)

This is bizarre. I also ordered mine on Friday night. And I got an email from Apple stated that it was going to ship on the 13th (Friday the 13th!). However, some people who ordered on the same day, their iphones are shipping on the 6th. Oh well, I've waited six months, another couple of weeks aren't going to kill me. Maybe by that time, AT&T would have resolved the activation problems.

Anyone else order from AT&T yet?

I ordered mine, and they said delivery occurs 7-10 days.
Did anyone else get different results?

Yep, I won't really believe it myself until I see the phone. I live in Hawaii, Fedex shows the phone originating in Fort Worth.
And when you ordered it, did you get the message that it would be "7 to 10 days till shipment"? (Sorry for all the questions. I'm just hoping to get mine earlier than expected).

Anyone else having trouble opening CMYK PDFs from Photoshop CC with JPEG 'high' compression?

(Cross-post from the Photoshop forum, where I was asked to post in the Acrobat forum: http://forums.adobe.com/message/5553829 )
When I save a PDF file in Photoshop CC in CMYK color with JPEG compression (quality = high), it will save without any errors. However, when I open the file in Acrobat (11.0.3), I get an "Out of Memory" pop up error. I press Ok, and the document is just displayed as a blank white image.
I'm using Win7 64-bit, Photoshop CC 64-bit. Plenty of memory (24GB) and allocated RAM in preferences, and I've done some troubleshooting that leads me to believe the error is not due to system memory, but rather a specific bug in the software. I have Photoshop CS6 on the same machine, and if I open the PSD, save as PDF with the above settings, everything is fine when I open it using Acrobat. This seems to just be for Photoshop CC, not CS6.
Here is the troubleshooting I've done so far:
PDF format, RGB color, any other settings --> Acrobat can open the file.
PDF format, CMYK, no compression --> Acrobat can open the file.
PDF format, CMYK, JPEG compression [medium] --> Acrobat can open the file.
PDF format, CMYK, JPEG compression [high] --> Acrobat can NOT open the file because it encounters the "out of memory" error.
PDF format, CMYK, JPEG compression [maximum] --> Acrobat can open the file.
This is silly. I don't get it. Can anyone else confirm this problem for me?
Updated:
Like you said, there isn't enough information to rule out an issue with Photoshop CC, as the same action using Photoshop CS6 results in a usable file.
New information (while making files for uploading):
The error only occurs with CMYK files of larger dimensions. On a 500x500px image, Acrobat throws out "A drawing error has occured". a 2500x2500px image runs into the "Out of memory" error. In either case, Acrobat cannot successfully open the file generated by Photoshop CC, while it can if it was made using Photoshop CS6.

Another observation for what it is worth (not a solution again). I was able to open all 3 PDFs in Irfanview as graphics. The properties of the image were
The major changes for the others within the JPegs was the number of pixels (133X133) and the size (1.4inX1.4in). There is also a reduction in the number of colors.
Just for information, I opened the big JPeg in Acrobat (9.5.5) and it opened fine. However, it looks like the color space was changed as shown below:
Even if I change the input to use CMYK and not RGB, it looks like it gets converted to RGB. I haven't spent time to figure out the preflight analysis properly, but at least this may give you some info back.

Raw files missing in import direct from canon eos 350D

Hi,
I realise that files missing for import is fairly common, but I still haven't been able to find a reason. I can load jpg and cr2 from a folder no problem, but when I attach the camera, using the latest canon WIA driver on windows xp, the window that comes up shows only the jpgs on my camera. I realise that a workaround is to get the files on the pc and import from there, but I don't have my canon software anymore to do that, and besides, I'm using the trial version to decide whether or not to buy. Is this a LR problem? a canon one? and is there a fix in the pipeline?
Apart from that, really like the product.
Many thanks
Dave

Dave
There was a problem with version 1.0 about importing JPG's and RAW's because although they have a different suffix i.e. JPG or CR2 they have the same file name. LR, as primarily a RAW converter sees these as one and the same file and only imported the RAW file. The work round for this was to rename the JPG's slightly outside of LR using a name that you could yourself identify with the original RAW e.g. RAW 0000001.crs with the JPG being renamed to 0000001A.JPG followed by Importing. I had thought they had cured this with the update but as I don't shoot JPG + RAW haven't tried this for myself. What's strange about your post though, is that if memory serves me correctly the problem lay not in the Importing of the RAW file but in the JPG file as described above. Perhaps someone with more up to date knowledge of this will jump in here.
The importing directly from the camera I referred to earlier was a known problem with Canon cameras - perhaps something to do with the folder structure although I couldn't swear to it. Hence the reference to using a Card Reader. In any event downloading from a Card Reader is faster as I'm sure you know.
If you right click and explore the Card you'll find that not all of the files are empty. The top folder will be something like DCM and by double clicking on this top folder it will open up the others.

Has anyone else had trouble copying/pasting vectors from AI CC to Microsoft word?

My jobs requires us to sometimes paste color boxes (as swatches) from Illustrator to Word. It always worked fine with the previous verison of AI. I've done all the new CC updates, however, when I try to paste anything into Word I get a long string of text instead of an image. Anyone else experiencing this?

Anyone else having slow wifi dl speeds from new ipad?

My download speeds on my iphone 4 on wifi are way faster than on my new ipad. Same wifi network, both devices are next to each other. On the iphone 4 download test i get around 1.15Mbps. On my new ipad, .56Mps. Something doesnt seem right and wanted to know if anyone else has experienced this slow wifi issue?

for me the fix was to take my network off OpenDNS servers... and back to my ISP's DNS.... and instant fix...
disappointing, as i liked the service from them...
hope this helps finovotny....

Anyone else having trouble stopping the spam from Apple?

Ever since I upgraded to Lion and signed into the Mac App Store for the first time, I've been getting junk mail from Apple every few weeks. Every message says, in tiny, gray type at the bottom, "If you prefer not to receive commercial email from Apple, or if you've changed your email address, please click here."
Every time I get one, I "click here", and give it the e-mail address that it sent the message to.
Every time the website assures me that I've been unsubscribed from all commercial e-mail (but might take 10 days to have an effect).
But despite these promises, I'm still getting spam from Apple.
Has anyone else had this problem, or is it just me that Apple is perpetually lying to?

Anyone else having a problem sending mail from their AOL account?

Everytime I try and send an email from my Iphone it says my aol password is wrong. anyone else having this problem?

YES, there are actually several posts about this problem today. It seems that most of use are able to receive mail, and I was able to send mail until about 3 this afternoon. AT&T reset my network settings, but that did not help. I called AOL, but since I use their email for free and am not a paying customer, I couldn not get any help. But I thnk it might be an AOL issue. I am able to log into my AOL email on my desktop,so it's definitly a correct user name and password.

Has anyone else had an unsaved photo disappear from a text message?Gone. No thumbnail... it doesn't exist anymore? How do you fix that? Can you fix that?

The photo is gone in the text message. Gone. No thumbnail...it doesn't exist anymore. How do you fix that? Can you fix that? Can you ever get the photo to show up again? I stumpted the guy on the phone with this problem. I need some help from anyone who has experienced this problem and might have a solution! Thanks in advance!

This happened to me also, a few days ago... I went to look at pics that were sent from just one person, all the other photos that people texted are there during same time period. It is only this one contacts several photos that disappeared... There is an arrow when I click on it it goes to a blank page?!? Have you received any feedback or answers?? Did your photos that are missing come from only one person or multiple? If you have any information that might help let me know!!! I really want them back!! Thanks much!

HT203167 hey folks has anyone else lost all their ring tones from your library cause mine has disappeared and now i have no ring tones and i dont know how to get them back can some one please help me thanks

Hey can you guys advise me on how to find missing ringtones please

Ringtones are currently a one-time only download from the store, so they won't appear in the Purchased link for re-downloading. Are they in the Tones section of your computer's iTunes library - by default your library is stored under:
Mac OS X: /Users/username/Music
Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\username\My Documents\My Music\
Windows Vista: \Users\username\Music\iTunes
Windows 7 and Windows 8: \Users\username\My Music\iTunes
And if you have ringtones in your library then there should be a Tones Directory underneath that.
If they aren't there then do you have them on your backup of your downloads ?
If not, and they are still in the store, then you could try contacting iTunes Support and see if they will grant you a re-download of them

Is anyone else dealing with a second profile from mobileme switchover

I was a MobileMe user as a lot of people here were. When the switch to iCloud occurred, I was unable to access music between my devices, iMac, Macbook, iPhone, iPad. After a lot of support assitance and research, it was discovered that I have two profiles now; one is [email protected] and the other [email protected] I was told that Apple does not have the capacity to merge these two profiles. The issue that this has created is that now I have different music on both profiles and if I only use one of them, then I lose the music that is purchased and sitting in the other one.
My question is, does anyone know if Apple is working on merging these accounts? Or have they just cut loose of this and moved on?
Thank you to anyone that can help.
CK

Yes, I've already done all of that and confirmed that they are definitely two different profiles, both in iTunes and when logging into "Manage My Apple ID".
Apple has confirmed that when MobileMe was converted to iCloud, that a fair amount of accounts experienced this 'glitch'.
My question is whether anyone knows if Apple is working to merge profiles that were affected by this 'glitch' or if they are doing nothing because I have spent money on music in both accounts and have no way of accessing it unless I keep logging into and out of each.
