Atilde (~) and hash (#) are broken

I have a 2009 Macbook Pro 13-inch, on which I recently installed Windows 7. I have discovered however that my atilde key and my hash key are both set to the incorrect symbol. On all English keyboards, the atilde key outputs as § or ± with shift held down, while the hash key has been replaced by the pound symbol (£). I am at a loss as to why this would be the case or as to how to fix it. I have changed my keyboard to US International and several other english keyboards, but it doesn't change anything. When changing to a different language (such as Chinese) I can type the normal atilde and hash, but this has obvious limitations. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Have you tried changing the keyboard setting inside Windows to one that has (Mac) after the name?

Hi Pinrose,
Welcome to Adobe Forums.
You can use the same subscription on 2 machines. If you want to use it on a 3rd machine you can deactivate
Photoshop from this machine. Please follow the below article on how to deactivate.

After a crash, lots of audiobooks have somehow moved to Music folder, and links are broken - how can I fix this?

Wow, I'm surprised the forums accepted that long a title.
Anyway, the computer crashed. I started again, and when opening iTunes after the crash ... something happened. There was a prompt that I idiotically didn't write down (Moving Library? Updating Library?), that kept going for hours, and eventually I just gave up and shut it down. That was probably stupid. Also evidence of significant things happening: the next Time Machine backup was 60GB+, so something big had changed.
As best I can tell, lots of my Audiobooks (and I've got MANY) now have broken links - when I look in the "iTunes Media" folder, many of the files that were once in the "Audiobooks" folder are now in the "Music" folder instead. All are still in the same subfolder as before: so audiobook files that were in "Audiobooks / BBC Melvyn Bragg" are now in "Music / BBC Melvyn Bragg", for example. So far I've only found Audiobooks that have been messed up in this way. Music and iTunes U and Podcasts seem to be unchanged, but maybe I just haven't noticed those problems yet.
And obviously I want to fix this.
Note that my iTunes library is set to "Keep iTunes Music Folder organized". All of the organization is what iTunes has done.
Option 1: can I just restore from a Time Machine backup? If so, what should I restore? There have been a few changes in the metadata in the 3-4 days since the crash, but I'm not overly concerned with that.
Option 2: can I just use Finder and move the files back? This would seem the "easiest" option to me. Although lots (hundreds? thousands?) of audiobook files have been moved, they're within only a couple of dozen different folders. Dragging them back into the correct folder would be easy - but what kind of havoc would that wreak on the database system?
Option 3: go through each track and find the file. I can do this. It'll take hours and hours and hours. I don't want to do this.
Slightly different question: how can I make a smart playlist of all the files with broken links? (I'm still trying to get a handle on just how big this problem is.) I've found suggestions about (1) making a smart playlist of everything, (2) dragging all of those into a normal playlist, and (3) making a new smart playlist of whatever's in #1 but not in #2, but that doesn't seem to be working for this situation. Is that advice now outdated, or is there something unique to my situation?
Thanks in advance!

Following up: I went with Option 2 above, and it seems to have worked quite well. I didn't even need to quit iTunes. After the files were moved, the exclamation marks remained at first, until I played the file, or restarted iTunes - now all seems well, until the next crash anyway.

Firefox crashes and all website pages loose their formatting and pictures, and links are broken

I’m currently running Firefox 18.0.1 on a 13” 2011 MacBook Pro 2.7 GHz Intel Core i7 with 8GB or RAM that is running OS X 10.8.2 Mountain Lion. I have been living with this problem for over a year and this same computer has had this problem while running OS X 10.7 and I think even 10.6. The problem also existed with earlier versions of Firefox including versions 17, 16, and possibly 15, it’s been so long I can’t remember.
The problem is that Firefox crashes (or something within Firefox crashes) and the screen “goes white” and by that I mean all the graphics and layout of a page like YouTube disappears and even though the links are there, none of them work. The page is just made up of text and broken links. Reloading the page does nothing so I have to close Firefox and restart it. (No reboot) On relaunch everything is back to normal and may last a few minutes, or it may crash again right away. Generally if I launch Firefox and use it and then go use some other programs, when I come back to Firefox it will then crash. Is this a Java problem? Is this a javascript problem? I really don’t know what it is but it has persisted through several operating systems and different versions of Firefox running on different operating systems. I’m stumped and can’t find anyone who’s ever seen this problem. Any help or clues would be greatly appreciated.
I should add that this problem is present on ALL webpages, not just one or a few. Safari works fine on the same machine and visiting the same websites. I have screen caps of the crashed pages but I don't know how to post them here.

Please type about:crashes in the URL bar and provide us with the latest crash ids. Please do not make a screenshot but instead copy and paste. Thanks!

Windows Media Center TV Guide DATA servers at AKAMAI and MS are broken

For the love of ... can someone in here with actual direct contact to NETWORK Engineers @Microsoft, let them know that Windows Media Center is broken. in both my 3 year old working SSD drive with W7 Home Premium which has been working
up to a month ago or so, and the FRESH install on a new drive with ALL the updates, except those that failed, are both not getting TV Guide data , so recording can not be scheduled
I have been told by folks at Silicodust.com and at AVSforum and TheGreen Button forums , it has to do with regional DNS servers pointing to the wrong or broken AKAMAI servers , but even when given direct server name and IP addresses
and added those the the HOSTS file and then flushed the DNS settings withing Windows 7 , the error messages go away and you can see SOME files get downloaded but the DATA always fails
the paranoid little person in me keep telling me, maybe MS is giving up on WMC or they are doing it to force us to upgrade to 9. sure wish things would get fixed either way or just start charging us for WMC separetely for
it, so we can rely on tv guide data
thanks

You need a tv tuner card to watch movies, I use my cogeco hdtv as a tv tuner card, that works well with MC.
Microsoft dropped internet TV in sept 2012. Who cares about internet TV HDTV is much better for movies.

Twitter keyboard shortcuts "N" and "P" are broken with update 10.4.31.9

The latest update to Twitter (version 10.4.31.9) has broken the shortcut keys "N" and "P" for next and previous. It's frustrating not having those shortcuts for navigating tweets. "SPACE" and SHIFT+SPACE" still work for page down and up.
I've uninstalled and reinstalled twice and rebooted numerious times to no avail.
I hope a future update will correct this.
Thanks

The problem is that despite having connected to my Netgear Router via Airport Wireless, I'm can't connect to the Internet.
Before the 10.4.9 update everything was fine. The MacMini is working fine (haven't risked the update for it), and my wife can connect with a Windows XP notebook fine. So the problem is definalty on the G4 TiBook.
I've tried switching between dynamic and fixed DNS with no luck.
When I switch it to dynamic is gets an IP address which is out of the range that the router is set to assign. i.e. the TiBook IP Address gets something like 169.254.134.187. However the Netgear Router which is acting as a DCHP server is set to give IP Address in the range 192.168.0.2 to 192.168.0.100.
Setting the TiBook manually does not work either.
The router itself has the IP 192.168.0.1. Pinging it I get 'No route to host', or 'Host is down'.
I've tried everything from checking cables, resetting, deleting the Airport network and reconnecting, restarting everything. No luck. Just not impressed at all.

Lion Photo booth effects dizzy and lovestruck are broken.

I just got lion and I think it is really cool. But when I go to photobooth the dizzy and lovestruck effects have black boxes around the birds and hearts. I have the more photo booth effects pack installed, but one of my friends who also has lion does and It works fine for him. I also have lion on another one of my older macs and the effects work fine on it. I havent done anything to photobooth It was just like that after I got lion. Any help will be apreciated.

Has anyone found a solution to this? The problem seems to not only affect Photo Booth, as some of the themes in iMovie that also use alpha channel masking do not work for me

How can I turn off my iPhone 5S/stop an alarm when the home button and screen are broken?

Touchscreen is not working at all. My home button does not work. I have alarms with snoozes going off with a battery at 100%... It's driving me crazy but I don't really want to reset my phone to factory settings.

You don't. Not without getting it fixed first.

JAX-RPC: Web service where both server /and/ client are services?

I'm considering a two-way Web service in an application that I'm designing and would appreciate any insight from prior experience.
This will be a standard client-server application, where the server broadcasts messages and the client, in turn, can request further information about the messages that it receives (think RSS-style updates, but with more interaction). [strong]However[strong], instead of having the client poll the server for new messages, I'd like to have the client register itself with the server as a message listener. The server is currently implemented as a Web service on port X. I'd like the client to register itself with the server, and then receive messages on port Y.
I'm considering a design like the following (note the directions of the inheritance arrows):
( Server class ) --<-- ( RemoteServerImpl class ) -->-- / RemoteServer interface /
|
( Listener class ) --<-- ( RemoteListenerImpl class ) -->-- / RemoteListener interface /Some considerations:
* In both cases, the client and server are broken out into an interface and two classes. The non-Remote classes implement all of the functionality. The RemoteX interfaces declare the methods that will be exposed via RPC, and the RemoteXImpl classes are empty subclasses of the non-Remote classes.
* In order to register itself with the Server, the Listener must be passed in as a method parameter, and thus conform to the JAX-RPC specification for value types. However, value types can't implement java.rmi.Remote.
* Only the Server and Listener know anything about each other.
* This application can be run either remotely or locally, depending on how the Server and Listener are instantiated. For the latter, they're instantiated directly and the listener is registered with the Server. For the latter, the RemoteX interfaces will point to the service stubs.
* I don't see an easy way to allow both the Server and the Listener to have references to each other (at least now without some casting magic), since one of them will have to conform to the value type specification, which requires that all of its fields must be valid JAX-RPC types.
I've got the Server portions implemented and working, and am now going to turn to the Listener stuff. Can anybody see a fundamental problem with this design, or can suggest something better?

Hi There,
Because web services are fundamentally a Services-oriented architecture, and not an Object-oriented one, you are unable to pass objects by reference (only by value) hence the design decision to not allow rmi.Remote objects to be sent across the wire. The best way would be to abstract an object which does itself not represent a server, but a route to a server (lets call it ServerPointer). This must contain address, port, service info, etc.
Now, in your Server class, create a factory method which takes a ServerPointer, and returns a reference to a
remote server, e.g. protected Server createServer( ServerPointer p ) (using the necessary APIs to get such a reference)
Hope this helps...

Translation from CS5 to Cloud doesn't work correct, navi and linked images are broken.

Translation from CS5 to Cloud doesn't work correct, <navi> and linked images are broken.
The data of CS5 was created at another PC. I installed Cloud version into two different PC. One has had the site data since dreamweaver CS5 and it works correct in Cloud version. Another PC got the site data from remote server and it doesn't work correct. <navi> and linked image are broken.

Another PC got the site data from remote server and it doesn't work correct. <navi> and linked image are broken.
This implies your site is not properly defined in DW. Go to Site > Manage Sites.
Or simply go to your other installation of DW and export the site definition file from Manage Sites.
Save it to a flash stick or other removable drive. Then import the STE file into your 2nd installation of DW.

MacBook Pro Photoshop CS4 not smooth zooming and fine lines are broken

I got a new MBP 15" about a month ago and am also running Win XP via bootcamp. On the Windows side Photoshop CS4 will not smooth zoom and if I zoom out, fine lines are broken apart and only partially show. When I go into the performance preferences enable opengl is checked and under advanced, advanced drawing is checked, but the use for image display is grayed out no matter what I do.
On the Mac side it works fine using either the 9400 or 9600 chipsets so considering Windows uses the 9600M GT which is the discrete one, it should work.
There's no driver updates here on Apple.com and Nvidia.com says there is an update available, but when it tries to install it says the hardware isn't supported... even though on the screen before it says it is.
Any suggestions would be much appreciated

Anybody have any suggestions?

Linking image files created in Mac are broken on PC and Vice Versa

Hello,
A fellow designer and I are sharing Illustrator files in the office but she is on a Mac and I am on a PC. Our linking image files are located in multiple folders on our company server, but whenever we open each other's files, all the links are broken and have to be relinked due to our different operating platforms. This can be very time consuming since the images are in different folders and there are many of them.
Anybody know how to fix this PC/Mac problem without dropping all the linking files into the same folder as the .ai file? I'm not the IT guy so I don't think that rebuilding our server structure is an option either...would cause too much havoc around the office.
Any help would be appreciated.

Let me ask you something does this sound like a viable way to work?
The way to do it is as you yourself suggest to work locally with all the files in one folder so you cannot break the links and that you know where the art is at all times.
If the IT thinks this is a good way to work then let them create a script to save all linked files to a common live folder for the project so that both computers can find it.
But from what you describe it is just looking for trouble and might be exactly what the IT wants trouble so they can extend their job. In which case ther is no solution.

My ipad battery and home button are broken but I have no insurance

I got a keyboard for my ipad and since using it the battery has gone. It takes around 8 hours to charge and the drains in 1 hour. You can't use it whilst it is charging either. Also the button has stopped working so I can't use that. Does anyone have a rough idea on how much this will cost as I have no insurance on it? Thanks

If your iPod Touch, iPhone, or iPad is Broken
Apple does not fix iDevices. Instead, they exchange yours for a refurbished or new replacement depending upon the age of your device and refurbished inventories. On rare occasions when there are no longer refurbished units for your older model, they may replace it with the next newer model.
ATTN: Beginning July 2013 Apple Stores are now equipped to do screen repairs/replacements in-house on iPhone 5s. In some cases while you wait. According to Apple this is the beginning of equipping Apple Stores with the resources needed to do most repairs for iPhones, iPads, and iPod Touches that would not require major replacements. Later in the year the services may be extended as Apple Stores become equipped and staffed with the proper repair expertise. So, if you need a screen repaired or a broken screen replaced or have your stuck Home button fixed, call your local Apple Store to see if they are now doing these in-house.
You may take your device to an Apple retailer for help or you may call Customer Service and arrange to send your device to Apple:
Apple Store Customer Service at 1-800-676-2775 or visit online Help for more information.
To contact product and tech support: Contacting Apple for support and service - this includes international calling numbers.
You will find respective repair costs in the appropriate link:
iPod Service Support and Costs
iPhone Service Support and Costs
iPad Service Support and Costs
There are third-party firms that do repairs on iDevices, and there are places where you can order parts to DIY if you feel up to the task:
1. iResq or Google for others.
2. Buy and replace screen yourself: iFixit

Hi everyone! On my MacBook Air Mid 2009 13" hinges are broken, and i don't have warinty on it anymore.!

Hi everyone! On my MacBook Air Mid 2009 13" hinges are broken, and i don't have warinty on it anymore.!
What should I do?
Thanks!

Still take it to an Apple store genius bar so you can get feedback on what it will cost for repair.
You can also see if you can find an Apple Authorized Service Provider and get a price from them, their work is accepted by Apple.
You can check iFixit.com and see if they have the hinge and price so you have another price for comparison.
