Anyone using InDesign 5.5 animation for iBook development?

I am working on children's full page illustration stories of about 12 pages each. I am able to animate small elements (like illustrations of insects) across background illustrations using InDesign 5.5.
Everything looks good in the Anmation Preview screen within InDesign. The animations can export as Flash swf files and I have found a tedieous methodolgy of re-importing each back into the InDesign document, then exporting the whole document as a PDF where they are supposed to display the embeded animations. Anyone tried this method or found a better way to animate either a PDF or iBook from inDesign?

Hi Jason,
AFAIR this warning was being issued when the same reference
to a composite PK object was used to find beans. Something like
MyPK pk = new MyPK();
for (int index = 0; index < counter; index++) {
pk.setID(index);
MyRemote remote = myHome.findByPrimaryKey(pk);
Generally it's good idea to have PK object immutable (no setters).
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Slava Imeshev

I am wondering if anyone has upgraded to 5.1, sp13,
and if it is working ok....
I have recently installed weblogic 5.1 sp13, and
have started getting lots of strange warnings sent
to the console any time I create or update an entity EJB.
This was not happening with sp12....I am using Solaris 7...
Everything seems to work ok, just get lots of warnings
on the console....
They look like this:

Anyone have a spare microphone cable for ibook G3 12 inch

Anyone have a spare microphone cable for ibook G3 12 inch? I pulled the wire from the connector when replacing my logic board.

Don't have a spare one lying around, but We Love Macs has a new one for sale:

PowerBook Tech parts out non-working iBooks. Although the microphone cable isn't a part he lists, Daniel may have one available for not much money if you e-mail him at the address listed on his home page.
Good luck.

Can I use InDesign's Data Merge for more than just address labels?

I am a Graphic Designing working on a new science exhibition in Melbourne, Australia.
I'm trying to streamline the way we import our label content into InDesign (currently cut and paste from Word which is slow and leaves room for error). I've been going down the path of having a macro developed which converts the Word content into a csv file so I can then import this into InDesign through data merge, however the import is falling over.
Through testing we can conclude that data merge doesn't like paragraph breaks, en-dashes and apostrophies (and possibly more we haven't come across) and will only import data up until one of these items occurs in the data. We've tested a number csv file formats however we can't find a solution.
Has anyone come up with a solution for this? My macro developer would be keen to get a hold of a working csv file that deals with these issues...
Thanks!

I have done what you are describing, with Word & InDesign, on a daily basis, for years. Word is not the best choice for this kind of workflow, of course, but if I had to choose between placing Word & doing a data merge with CSV, I'd be torn. Neither one is really the tool for the job. XML import would suit you better, but if you're already midstream in VBA development, there's no point in trying to describe why placing carefully styled RTFs and clearing overrides is better than writing VBA to clean up Word files and turn them into CSV.
(Look at style mapping in Import Options when placing a Word file for future projects.)
(Also: it's not extra codings that you want to apply in VBA, it's purging Word-specific "Symbols" and just using true Unicode values for em dashes and other typographical symbols.)

Has anyone used more than one event for one project?

Hi,
I have an opinion about Final Cut Pro X that hasn't changed since my first few days with it. I waited to see if I would get used to it. But, after a fair amount of time, I still am not comfortable with 'Events' and 'Projects'. The separation of the media and projects creates more problems than solutions with my workflow.
The purpose of it was to add flexibility for both the professionals and consumers using it, but my first impressions are still the same. The new Event and Project system adds complexity to organization and archiving. I wouldn't write this if it wasn't enough of a hindrance for me, that I encounter constantly. I think the new Final Cut Pro X is incredible, but this issue is definitely important to me.
Has anyone out there used more than 1 Event for 1 Project? Some of us create more than 1 Project for an Event, to make different version of a video, or for brainstorming, or to make a part 1 and part 2 of a video, but I've never had more than 1 Event for 1 Project. I don't need to use the media from multiple Events for the same Project. And I've never used it for a reason. I don't think someone will want to use their Hawaii vacation footage for a Denver vacation project, and a Florida vacation project. I think we should bring back the connection between Events and Projects in a meaningful way.
This is a throw back to the older days, but that's not always a bad thing. Let us keep our projects, or timelines, in the Events folder. Make an area above the JPG section, and PNG section, and MOV section, and call it the Projects section. Then we can easily find our Projects and add a new Project every time we need it, and organize our files quickly - without having to keep track of more windows. Final Cut Pro X is all about being more simplified than other video programs, and I think this goes right along with that idea.
Thanks,
- David

My original fear was that FCPX was just going to be iMovie Pro... It so is not!
People use the interface in different ways. I think that's what most of us like about it, it's flexibiity to accommodate different types of workflows. For me, I use the Events browser mostly like I'd be using the Finder. All the imported clips I use are referenced by the hard disks on which they reside. I know where to find them in the Event Browser and I know where to find them in the Finder. I use a lot of stock footage and therefore *reuse* a lot of stock footage from project to project. I'm not going to re-import duplicates into different events because I don't find that the least bit convenient and I do find it a terrible waste of precious HD real estate.
But that's me.
Some people like to load up everything they're going to use in a single project in a single event... I get that. You can command click your way through a bunch of clips, type E and everything is automatically arranged on your storyline in the order you selected the clips. That is *awesome*!! Instant storyline (/timeline.) Furthermore, for those that need to share projects, it's easier to bundle up the events and projects if they're all together (albeit in two different folders) on one disk (— at least they are always at the top level of the drive and easy to find.)
Keeping your Events media in a different location (satellite drives) and keeping your current project on your *fastest* drive is probably the fastest way to edit (particularly if your satellite drives are Firewire or Thunderbolt [peer-to-peer interfaces don't hog system resources].) There is little cross interference in disk accesses that way. So essentially, you can keep FCPX dealing with original clip data that doesn't need to be quite as fast, reading and writing to slower drives on your system, while letting it plow through the heavy work on your fastest access drive (usually your internal HD.)
By no means is FCPX "more simplified". It has a huge amount of power. It has all the best parts of Color, Soundtrack Pro and Motion built in. It allows you to explore *ideas* in real time rather than having to plan for them a week in advance [layout, round-tripping plans to Color, STP and/or Motion for titling or effects.] You can grab and move around elements anywhere on your "palette" with simple mouse moves and an occasional key press. The list goes on. Bottom line, it doesn't matter how you organize your events or your projects. It's all about the finished product. And for me, I can turn that around in about 1/5th the time (not claiming it's great — but I think better results in 20% of the time, on average, than it would have taken in Studio.) [Not a professional video editor -- I'm a graphic designer, and I develop Motion graphics for FCPX to make all "you guys" look better.]

What tool can i use to create an animation for iPad

What tool can i use to create an animation the will run in I.E., Firefox and iPad. I want to have a series of large buttons that i can scroll using arrows on the left and right side of the large buttons, with each button being a hot spot. I can't use Flash because it is not supported on the iPad.
Thanks,
Steve

I've been playing with both Edge and Hype, and I found that stuff I create in Hype actually works in IE 8, but stuff I create in Edge does not. I'm not sure what the difference is, other than perhaps Hype automatically writes some legacy scripts so that things will work in IE. Hype's not perfect, but it's doing the job for what I needed it to do, where Edge was no help at all (working in IE I mean).
I think Edge is a much better tool - more robust, greater feature set, but Hype seems a bit more forgiving and seems to play nicer with crappy browsers like IE.

Has anyone used Paragon NTFS or Tuxera for Median and Project Files

I have read lots of discussions about why this is not a good idea but my two options are to do this or switch to Sony Vargas for everything so it would be good if people could let me know if they have had this working successfully.
So has anyone successfully used either of these 2 NTFS drivers to edit SD/HDV or Prores projects on? My only experience has been using SD footage on an NTFS drive with the free NTFS-3G drivers. This worked fine as long as project files were on non NTFS drive (for same reason if I saved project on NTFS is saves a file with a size of zero bytes).
Regards,
Ben
PS I wonder if this thread will stay on topic;).

Macs can read drives that are formatted in NTFS as is. The software you mentioned enables a Mac to write to those drives. That said, you should edit using drives that are optimized for FCP and formatted Mac OS Extended.
Nothing to stop you copying the media from an NTFS drive to work with and then copying the finished result back.
As you are now in the position of having to do this, why not do a test and report back with your results?

Has anyone used the reel projection plugin for jQuery?

Hello to all,
im new at all this website stuff. im creating an online protfolio and want to have a place were each of my characters can be rotated 360. Im using a tutorial i found on the reel plugin. but its not working for me. i have included all the scripts required and have everything set up the same as the person giving the tutorial did. i just cant figure out what is gong wrong. I dont know enough about it all to figure out what is wrong. any help woudl be appriciated.
the scripts to be included are as follows:
<script src="jquery.js"></script>
<script src="jquery.reel.js"></script>
<script src="disableTextSelect.js"></script>
<script src="jquery-mousewheel.js"></script>
<script src="ActivateReelTarget.js"></script>
the tutorial had them linke with http://, but i downloaded them and turned them into.js scripts. the ActivateReelTarget is just a script i wrote to activate the reel plugin for the target object. which looks like this:
$('#image360').reel({ frames: 36 })
other than that all that is needed is the image which i loacated at the top of my page:

                    <div id="360conatiner">
         
        <img id="image360" src="images/RW360.jpg" width="600px", height="526px"/>
        </div>
        
        </div>
        
its pretty stright foward, so i dont know what im missing?
the comp sheet i made has 36 images in it gong from left to right in a block of 6X6. the image on the page has to be the first image in the block of 6X6. they have to be named the same thing, than the 6X6 comp block just needs to have a -reel extention added to it
This is the site im geting all this from:
http://developer.practicalecommerce.com/articles/1840-Full-360-Degree-Product-Image-Rotati on-in-JavaScript

Thanks for the feedback, I appreciate it! I have read thru your links, and it looks like the colorspace drive is a good option. I guess what I am lookiing for is anyone who has used the one specifically made for Ipad?
Maybe I can be a bit more specific..
I have a macbook pro, and will not be able to take it with me because of severe in country flight weight restriction
I have an ipad
I have an WD portable hard drive without screen
I will use a portable hard drive as a backup, as well as try not to re-use my cards ( I shoot in raw, and have space for about 5000 images)
The only thing missing is my ability to actually look at some of my images while on the trip, so with the new Hyperdrive for Ipad it seemed to be a convenient solution.
With the Hyperdrive for ipad, I could see my images load, which would make me feel good...lol and then with the ipad actually look at some of them...
I am curious to know if anyone has used it, for a similar situation? Or if I should forgo the ipad all together and get the UDMA colorspace? Or what the diffenece would be?

Does anyone use a Celluar Travel Router for wifi connecton?

Hi!
I did some further research into this and you can have access to cell phone networks to create a wifi connection for the iPod Touch.
Does this really do the trick with having constant wifi when you're traveling or on the go?
Any advice would be great!
Thank You!

Yes, you do need to have a cell account and cell data plan for this to work.
I want to know if anyone uses this feature to create their instant wifi Hotspots?
Thanks!

Anyone using M-Audio FireWire Solo for iChat audio output?

Audio output for iChat works perfectly through my G5 internal speaker but does not work through my FireWire Solo. It yields 100% digital distortion everytime the person on the other end speaks. Everything else in my setup works beautifully with my M-Audio device (Logic, Pro Tools, Reason, iTunes and all other applications).

You have landed in iSight Discussions. You may find better help in the Expanding your Power Mac G5 Discussions or iChat AV 3 Discussions area.
I do not use M-Audio or any of the other things you post about except iChat AV, and iChat AV does NOT work through my DP G5's internal speaker.
I offer the following possibilities for your consideration if you cannot find better help:
(0) When using iSight or iChat AV, you may be experiencing Possible hardware or software conflicts. This link gives tips for investigating that possibility.
(1) You may be trying to use M-Audio FireWire Solo for other than its intended purpose. The web site states, in part: The FireWire Solo is designed from the ground up as an easy-to-use, high-quality interface for songwriters to record guitars, vocals and more on the computer.Perhaps your M-Audio's documentation or the "Support" information linked on the web site can help you determine whether your device is compatible with iChat AV and your other AV equipment.

Has anyone used Timpsons phone repair service for a replacement screen on iPhone 4S?

My iPhone 4S has a. cracked screen, but still works OK.
Can anyone comment on Timpsons repair service? It will cost £40 for the repair, but they do use real glass, not just a plastic screen.

If your phones is in waranty then thats a bad move. Other wise I cannot comment on non Apple repairs, and dont feel this forum is the best place for that. iPhones use specially toughened glass with a Oleophobic coating, I would not trust 'glass' to be that. Also if you break your phones dies and you need a out of warranty replacement you wont get one buy going down this path.
