"At Work" Indicator

I've found that the most frequent case of LR crashing or freezing up is when, after importing, LR tries to do work in the background with no indication of being "busy" and I try to move on to do other things. I realize that I'm telling LR to create "Standard Previews" but I have no indication of LR's progress -- I have to open the Windows Task Manager and look at the Lightroom.exe Process until the CPU usage drops significantly below 50% before I try to do something else.
Right now, as I type this, LR is hung up on an error message: "method not found: viewAttribute" while trying to view the latest folder I imported. This doesn't relate to the "Busy Signal" so much, though -- I waited until the task bar showed LR to be "not busy" -- it relates more to the fact that LR is still a "work in progress".
Anyway, it does take a long timefor LR to get "Not Busy" in the Task Manager!
So, there's no indicator that the system's too busy to handle another task, but when I do try another import, for example, LR freezes up.
BTW, I'm not a complainer about new software -- I've done critical software development and testing. Right now I'd say LR is still a "work in progress": a lot of great features but some real hang-ups. I have thousands of images on an external (USB 2.0) hard drive and I have LR freeze up or take unacceptably long on just about every folder import attempt. I'd say that needs attention!
In the meantime, a meaningful "Busy" icon would help!

*UPDATE!!!*
OK, here's the latest. After my last message, I attempted to Cancel the stalled Import, and nothing happened (which I find to happen whenever the import stalls) so I exited LR and restarted it. I reinstituted the Import and noticed that the first unimported image was a PSD file. This attempt worked, and LR correctly flagged the PSD file as Non-Compatible and didn't import it.
Conjecture: LR may occasionally gag on non-compatible files!
I then continued to successfully import several thousand files, but then it stalled again...on a folder of JPEGs...with *two AVI video files!
Conjecture: LR may occasionally gag on non-compliant files!
The next stall was just a few minutes ago. While an import operation was underway I used a Windows Explorer window to check the contents of the folder being imported -- no strange file types, all RAW, but while I was scrolling the folder (with no alterations going on) LR stalled!
Conjecture: perhaps LR doesn't like anything messing around with it's Imports in anyway???
Well, on with the show!

ISight not working, indicator light continuously on

iSight was working fine, then today I noticed the indicator light was on. I tried several programs that use iSight to see if the camera was working, but none were capturing an active image (iChat = black screen, Photo Booth = green screen). I tried restarting the computer without any luck. Is there any way to reset iSight? Or is this a hardware problem? All my software is up to date as well.
Thanks.

I have figured it out. I have the Imac, and it has
worked for me everytime i have tried it. If you are
in photobooth, and there is no image coming from your
camera and the light is on, cover the isight with
your thumb, and hold it there for a couple of
seconds. The screen will go a little scratchy and
then you can take you thumb away and the picture
should be there. It has worked for me three times.
Good to hear that it works for you riverboy...but...since the camera light is on and iChat states : "Your camera is in use by another application" , when I start up photobooth it says "Photobooth cannot open because no camera is attached or the camera is in use by another application." So whatever your problem was is most likely something completely different form the "camera in use" problem being discussed here. Needles to say that my iSight IS attached AND the green light is on. But NONE of the apple programs (QT player, iChat, Photobooth, Apple Quicktime Broadcaster, iMovie) recognize the fact that the camera is there. Thanks for your response.
Something set it internally to be "occupied" and NONE of the programmes or hints sofar have been able to RESET that. Again, I would hope that Apple responds to this discussion. I just had a call from a friend in the Netherlands who now has the same problem after having used his iSight for over a year without any glitches...

Hard-Power off caused BIOS to stop working (NOT because of BIOS Flash)

I was trying to boot up a live CD on my Toshiba Satellite P305D-S8900. The F12 key to pull up the boot menu didn't work, and it started to boot to Windows. I let it get past the "Starting Windows" Orab (running Windows 7), and hard-powered it off when it got to "Please Wait..." right before the login screen. After that, when ever I turn it on, the BIOS isn't loading. The Only LED lights going on are the Power button one, and the three that indicates it plugged in, the power is on, and the Battery indicator. The media buttons and the one above the trackpad doesn't work. The track pad one lights up when I hit the power button to turn it off. The fans are working (indicating the power management is working), the CD Drive is reading to see if there is a disc in there, and the screen remains black. There is no hard drive activity whatsoever. And the strangest thing of all...no beep code!!
I have so far tried taking out my MAIN battery for 24 hours (NOT the CMOS battery) and a Pheniox Crisis Disk with these combinations: "Win+B", "Fn+B", and "Fn+F". There is no beep codes when I do it or even any beeping to indicate the BIOS is getting flashed for that matter. Are there any other key combinations I could try? And yes, I from the start took out the battery, plugged in the drive, and pressed and held the key combinations while plugging in the AC, turning it on, and waiting about 30 seconds to release the key combinations. Like I said, this was not during any BIOS flashing, and what went wrong really stumps me.
Is there any other solution I could try? As of right now, sending into repair is not an option. Can anyone help me fix this? Thanks in advanced!

Images constantly in "working..." state

In the Library module, several of my images are constantly in 'working' state with an ellipsis "..." shown above the preview. It's as if LR is trying to generate a high res preview but cannot do so.
Switching to Develop shows the high res preview correctly. Switching back to Library shows the correct high res preview, but the 'working' indicator still displays.
Weird!
I'm pretty sure that all such images are Pentax PEF (RAW) images. I've checked that orig images have not been deleted.
Anyone come across this?
Running LR 1.0

Thanks

It amy be that LR is still doing something else like collecting Metadata for the Metadata Browser, as well.

QuickTime Internet plug-in not working????

I can't see media in webpages. I just installed Q.T. 7, and it's not working. Can somebody please tell me what to do?

Apple Discussions!
"tried the flash recommendation wihout success."
Did you repair permissions & restart after installing flash? If so, then try the following:
To fix a QT related problem w/Safari, quit Safari & look in the /Library/Internet Plug-Ins folder (this is the Library folder at the root level of your HD, not the one inside your Users/user name folder).
Try removing the VLC Plugin.plugin (if you have it) & *QuickTime Plugin.webplugin files from this folder, & then relaunch Safari. If the problem isn’t fixed, a different plug-in may be to blame. Keep removing files from this folder (start with any third-party plug-ins that are present) until the problem disappears.
Replace the plug-ins that don’t cause any problems.

If you have an Intel-based Mac, running Safari in Rosetta can also resolve some QT plug-in issues.
First quit the app if it’s open & then, in your Applications folder, select Safari & press Command+I.

Print to Go stopped working after install of KB2992611 on Windows 7 for x64 system

A large number of critical and importatnt Microsoft security related updates showed up on 11Nov2014 that were installed. Subsequently several failures happened after the restart (i.e. IE would freeze when started, Print to Go
stopped working - indicated that there was no connection to the Internet, the PrintToGoLog.txt had much more detail).
Other BB playbook users reported similiar problem after one of the updates KB2992611 was applied,
After KB2992611 (Security Update for Windows 7 for x64 system) was uninstalled, Print To Go functioned properly. Unfortunately, I.E still failing. Firefox is OK.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hi,
I recently updated by Q10 to the latest Rogers 10.3.1 software release, and was going through my apps to verify they were all still functional. I found that Print-to-Go was not working. As I do not frequently use the app, I do not know if the recent device software update is the cause.
After a bunch of searching around the web, I came across two possible issues:
1) SSL 2.0 setting within the Internet Options settings on my PC
2) Windows Update kb2992611
My PC is running Windows 7 64-bit Pro, with latest Print-to-Go driver and BB Link installed. The problem I encountered is that when printing from the PC the pop-up window would fail to load the page that allows you to sign in to Blackberry ID and verify the link to your device. The https://ptg.blackberry.com page would return a server error.
Enabling SSL 2.0 within the Internet Options on my PC appeared to fix this problem, as I was able to access the BBID login page. However printing documents would still fail.
I then uninstalled Windows Update kb2992611. This fixed the problem. Print-to-Go functioned as expected, and documents would appear on my device.
I then disable SSL 2.0 within the Internet Options on my PC, and there was no effect. Print-to-Go still functioned.
I then reinstalled Windows Update kb2992611 and Print-to-Go appeared to work (ie you could sign-in with BBid), but printing of documents would fail and give an error message. Uninstalling the Windows Update again fixed the problem and PTG would work fine.
So, it appears there is a conflict between Print-to-Go and Windows Update kb2992611.
Will Blackberry be updating their desktop PTG driver so that it is compatible with this Windows Update?
The Windows Update addresses a security issue, so I'm not comfortable leaving my PC with this update not installed.

Yahoo mail on iPhone not working

Beginning today, my Yahoo mail account on my iPhone stopped working, indicating that my password wasn't entered. I went to the Mail settings and entered it, but I get an "authentication failed" error.
I know my account is valid, since I can access it from a web browser.
I removed my Yahoo mail account from my iPhone and added it back, but I have the same errors.
Is this an iPhone issue, or a Yahoo issue?

If no change after deleting and recreating the account making sure the correct password is entered, more than likely this is a Yahoo problem at the incoming mail server. Logging in to an account via webmail access using a browser is different from checking an account with an email client. The latter requires communicating with the incoming mail server for the account and the former doesn't.
If you are also accessing the account with an email client on your computer such as with the Mail.app, any problems there?

2nd Gen Touch Hangs with Apple Logo & Status Indicator During Restore

Something is wrong with my ipod. It will not work at all or even boot up. I can get it to quit displaying the apple logo by following instructions to do a restore. In iTunes, i get a message saying it detected my ipod in restore mode and to click to begin. After I click, it runs thru some unpacking of software, and preparing my ipod. At this time, my ipod disappears from the left column in iTunes, the screen on my ipod turns white, then i get the apple logo, then an apple logo with a circular "working" indicator, then the apple logo with a blank progress bar. iTunes says its waiting for ipod. The status indicator on the ipod never moves even after hours of waiting. It hangs up in the same place in the process every time... about a dozen times.
What is wrong?

I've been griping... but i kind of have a reason to gripe. What I have also been doing is providing additional information about my quest for getting this thing working: the things i've tried, the stages i've gotten past, and where it still hangs up. I was hoping that by providing some additional information, it might actually ring a bell with one of you Apple pros, because I'm sure you've heard it all, and seen it all. If the thing is broken, just tell me. That's all I want to know at this point. But since I get slightly different results depending on what i do, and what firmware version I use, I figured it must be fixable, and that someone knows how to do it... even if that advice is to take it in somewhere... or if I can mail it in.
So I get it. You gota pay for someone from actual Apple. And no one is gona tell me its broken on this forum cuz its bad for Apple business, and you guys will lose brownie points or something.
RIP OFF. This was my first ever Apple purchase... and it is my last, unless someone wants to go out on a limb and tell me what's up with this thing. I have a CD player from 1989 that cost half as much, was under water twice, and still works, and actually sounds better. It's not so easy to mow the yard while listening to it, but thats about it.

No longer turned on, then mysteriously it did! Any ideas why??

So one day my MBP was working fine, it had about 70% charge left. I closed the lid and went upstairs, opened the lid again and it didn't come back on. I tried the power button, still nothing. There was no backlight on the screen, no sounds, nothing. The power cord light still came on when plugged in and the battery indicator still worked, indicating i still had the ~70% charge.
The only other clue I have, which could help diagnose what happened, is that i tried turning on the caps lock button to see if that light would come on. With the bedroom lights turned off, i pressed the power button and saw caps lock briefly light up! Each time i pressed the power button it would light up less and less until even that wouldn't work anymore.
I ran every recommended diagnosis step on Apple's 'If your Mac won't turn on' pdf.
After a few days of trying the power button I tried once more, It turned on! Has been working again for about 10 days now.
I am still very precarious about using it now, and would welcome any suggestions as to what happened and how to prevent it happening again.
My bet is that there is a loose power connection somewhere inside.

I would perform SMC and NVRAM resets.

MXF read errors in CC 2014.1

Has anyone else noticed a sudden onset of MXF read errors after updating to the latest version of Premiere? I'm getting the dreaded "Red Frames" on footage that works fine in the previous version (2014.0). The problem doesn't occur on import, meaning the errors will show up while I'm working (indicated by the red X in the lower right corner of the screen). The only errors I receive during import are related to unsupported file types (I'm dragging in the entire captured card, and it doesn't like the XML files). I have maintained the same workflow successfully since Premiere Pro 5.5 with this footage, only now am I beginning to see issues that are exclusive to this version.
The issue occurs on both converted and new projects, and I'm starting to lose my sanity - the solution I've found is simple: re-import the footage after moving it to a different location on your system, and re-link the files. This clears up the error, telling me that it has nothing to do with the files and everything to do with how they're being read. The files work fine in VLC, along with previous versions of Premiere that are installed on our other work machines.
The problem with this solution is that it totally Adobe's me: that is, it wastes my time on a bug that didn't appear before a recent upgrade while working to a deadline.
The MXF files are coming from a Canon XF300. http://www.canon.ca/inetCA/en/products/method/gp/pid/4484#_030
MPEG2, 35Mbps (VBR) 4:2:0, 1920x1080 (30p)
If you're noticing this issue as well, please let me know. Perhaps there's a codec issue on my system, or perhaps this latest update should have just been avoided... Is there any way to roll back to CC 2014.0 ?
Operating environment:
Windows 7 x64, SP1
Core i7-3930k, 32gb RAM
Nvidia Quadro 4000
Media access:
The files are stored locally on a mechanical drive, the Premiere is running off of an SSD.
Workflow:
Copy the entire card to the computer, and then dragging the folder that it was copied to into Premiere. Wait for Premiere to conform and import.
Where the issue is noticed:
The problem typically occurs when footage has been nested with effects applied to it (at the root, not on the parent sequence). The error doesn't appear on import, but rather during the scrubbing/playback.

Your In box grows from other people's issues? Sorry, I'm not understanding. Are you in support or education as well?
"This kind of issue…" refers to what? File based camera formats like AVCHD, etc.? As Neil says, there are lots of things that can go wrong with these kinds of formats. Chief among them is not ingesting them correctly, via the Media Browser not File > Import.

I don't believe I know of any one company creating complex software that doesn't need a larger support staff. We do the best we can with what we are given. Of course, I have no control over how many support agents we have on the phones or on chat. I'm lucky now that I have a couple of agents dedicated to the forums, so you should see this situation improving.

Query using analytics function in SQL

Hello,
I have a situation here .. kindly guide me..
There are 2 tables, Case table (summary table) and Task table (detailed table)
The structure of tables:
Case Table:
Case_ID,
Trans_CT, à(transaction count could be 1,2,3 ..any numeric value)
Case_Rec_ID (major cols required)
Task table:
Case_ID
Case_Rec_ID,
Task Name,
Work_group_name,
Ready_to_work_in (Yes/No),
Ready_to_work_ts
Lst_Upd_ts
A work group can contain multiple cases.
I need to find out the # of ready_to_work transactions per case and roll it up to work group level.
The transaction Count is given at Case level (it is predefined in the source application;need not bother about how the value arrived;) if we do a join between case and task table , trans_ct appears for all the tasks. But there is a business rule for calculating the # of transactions(summation).
A case contains several tasks like for ex. & corresponding ready to work indicator like below
Case1 – Task 1   Y
                Task2    Y
                Task3    N
                Task4    Y
                Task5    Y
Case2 - Task 1   Y
                Task2    Y
                Task3    N
                Task4    Y
                Task5    N
If the RTW indicator is N for the last or recent task within the case then it can be ignored.
If the RTW indicator is Y for the last or recent task then we need consider the “trans_ct” value as # of RTW transaction for that case.
So Case 2 shall be ignored.
In Case 1, you can find the RTW flag has switched from Y-N-Y. If there is a switch of RTW flag within the case from Y to N then to Y and the last or recent tasks RTW flag is Y then we need to account for the number of switches & consider the corresponding “trans_ct” value. (# of switches * trans_ct)
Let’s say the trans_ct is 3 for Case 1. Now in this scenario, the # of RTW transactions would be (2*3=6 ).
Now I need to develop a query that can handle this scenario and roll up to work group level.
Tried the analytic functions lag,lead and first value, last value…but still trying to figure out the logic to handle this case1.
FYI- The Tasks need to be ordered by last_upd_ts
Please can you help me with the query.
Thanks
Vinoth

HELP! Getting Blue Q with question marks when visiting web sites

I see from the replies to similar posts that is is recommended to use the default settings under Advanced/ mime settings, in Quick time
I always had all boxes checked in all the categories as my preference would be to have Quick time play every thing. And encountered no problems .
I recently purchased flip4mac studio and now every thing is all messed up, web pages that used to work fine as far as saving content to my desk top or downloads folder, or copying and pasting urls, for sharing now work no more, I get the blue Q with the question mark as shown in these web sites I am completely hobbled as far as sharing my videos.
[Post Edited by Hosts due to adult content]
What are the correct settings for quicktime preferences ?
and please explain kiosk mode , I do have Macromedia flash player installed, and I guess Adobe, when I visit different sites with video, and I control click on the player I am able to tell which player is playing the media, only quicktime offers the save to my computer option, this is how I wound up with flip 4 mac, it was recommended to play content , I also just upgraded my safari to the beta version
iMac G5/G4 12 inch Power book Mac OS X (10.4.9)

"What are the correct settings for quicktime preferences ?"
Make sure you have the latest versions of Adobe Flash Player Software
QuickTime Preferences > Advanced > MIME Stettings > Miscellaneous.
Deactivate the "Flash Media" option.
This tells the browser not to to display Flash Media and lets the newly installed Adobe software work its magic.
==================
If the above thread doesn't help, try this...
Thanks to QuickTimeKirk........
Quit QuickTime.
Open User (Home)/Library/Preferences and delete any .plist file with QuickTime in its name. Don't worry as a new one will be created.
Open System Preferences/QuickTime and see if the window and tabs work as they should.
The following post should be helpful also: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=779076&tstart=0
===================
Since you are using Safari then I suggest that you check out Safari 2.0 Help Webpages aren't working (indicated by boxes with question marks)
"I recently purchased flip4mac studio"
Then you should contact Flip4Macs technical customer service and/or post in their forums if none of the above suggestions works out.

Good luck!

Progess with my disconnection problem

So I was having problems with my Infinity dropping every 10 mins to several hours, only for a mere 20 seconds. After several calls to BT, they claimed I had a line fault, and eventually asked me to test my connection by using the test socket. Success! The connection was up for a whopping 1 day and 8 hours using the test socket! They told me they were going to phone me earlier today to see if there was any progress, but the guy who phoned didn't really seem to know anything about my problem, and simply told me a line fault had been fixed and to plug it back in to the main socket. This confused me, because I thought the fact that the test socket worked indicated some kind of problem with my main socket or the extension wires, not a line fault. I then tried to use the main socket earlier, but every webpage I tried to access took me to some 'BT Wholesale' page with some listed reasons why I got there. Any help trying to finally solve this conundrum?

Problem with ink cartridges

We have a fairly new (6 mo.) HP 6100 printer that quit working, indicating a problem with the cartridges. I purchased all new ink cartridges, matching the number posted inside the printer door (933 for CMY and 932 for K). The printer still doesn't work, giving the message "The printhead appears to be missing, not detected, incorrectly installed or incompatible." I have removed, cleaned, re-installed. Still nothing.

Hi Bigs4Kids,
I understand you have an Officejet 6100 that is telling you the printhead appears to be missing or damaged. I'm sorry to hear this, but I will do my best to assist you.
As this printer does not have a removable printhead, I'm not entirely sure what you removed and cleaned, but I would suggest that you call HP Tech Support and inquire about getting the printer serviced, as stated in this A 'Missing or Failed Printhead' Error Message Displays on the Printer or on the Computer document.
Hope this helps, have a great weekend!

Thinkpad Twist 33474HU Wifi Unavailable After Windows Update

After a Windows update back in late October my wireless service stopped working indicating "The Windows wireless service is not running on this computer". I rolled back to an pre update and wireless worked again. A few days later Windows update ran once again and wireless stopped working. I am not able to roll back to a time that wireless works anymore. I am running Windows 8.1 and have tried the following:
1) Uninstall Wireless driver and let auto install the latest driver
2) Downloaded the latest wireless driver from the Lenovo website and installed
3) Uninstalled the WLan hardware and let Windows recognize the hardware
4) Tried to manually start the WLan autoconfig service but, it says
Windows could not start the WLAN autoconfig service on local computer. Error 1068: The dependency service or group failed to start.
I also tried starting the dependent services
5) Uninstalled all Windows updates back to October 17 and tried wireless with no success.
Couldn't find any suggestions on the internet any more specific than the above, can anyone suggest something to help? I am at the point of doing a clean install to get my wireless back.

Hi duckgang,
Welcome to the community.
Reinstalling your system is probably your best bet right now.
By experience I never install updates related to hardware from windows update, just install the important one not the optional (especially drivers).
