Automatic: opening files in CS3, saving them, and exiting
Dear Adobe CS3 gurus, is the following task achievable for Adobe CS3?
Task is: I want to open Adobe CS3 app from windows command prompt (use start xxx etc); then, I want Adobe CS3 app to look into a specific folder, open all files in there, save them back (in the same folder), and exit.
Is the above task possible to do in Windows? If yes, how to do it?
TIA,
aab-aab
But in order to use File/Automate/Batch it is necessary to have Photoshop open. And the original question was asking if it is possible to have Photoshop itself open, then process, then exit.
I cannot give you a lot of details on this, because I have never done it. But it is possible to create an action that does all of your processing and then save that action as a "droplet" which is an executable. Then, all that is required is for you to drop files onto the droplet icon and Photoshop will open, process and close. I don't know the syntax to get Photoshop to do what you want done from the command prompt.

Automatically open file based on MIME type and file extension
We have an app that is registered to handle custom MIME type and file extension. This works perfectly on IE and FireFox causing them to download the file to a temp folder and then launch our app associated with MIME type and file extension with command line to the downloaded file. On Safari however this does not work. It opens up a download window and shows that it has downloaded the file with no option to open it.

I had 41 tabs open in about six groups over the last year and a half and I just close them and exited Firefox. Is there any way to get them back?
Also, is there any way to save a group or an open session and then restore it later?History menu, if it was destroyed in the last session
then use "Restore Previous session:" and then restore all windows also from the history menu.
If done in this session try the restore all windows under the history menu. -
Error opening file/URL reference by alias and Administrative limit exceeded
Hello All,
Problem:
SMTP Error: 4.5.0 error opening file/URL reference by alias
and
Search failed with: netscape.ldap.LDAPException: error result (11); Administrative limit exceeded
Here is my configuration:
Windows 2000 server (without Active Directory)
SP4
Iplanet Messaging Server 5.2
Netscape Directory Server 4.16
IPlanet Messaging Server 5.2 Hotfix 1.09 (built Jan 7 2003)
We have a group which we use to flash messages to all the users of the mail server. Till last week it was working fine but now I am not able to send messages to this group <group-name>.
There are around 800 (Eight Hundred) E-mail id the messaging server and the flashed message is supposed to go to all 800 + users.
Note: I have another group of 300 users and I am able to send an E-mail to this group of 300 users.
I am using Dynamic Group for Members list.
The error message I get while trying to send message to this group is
SMTP Error: 4.5.0 error opening file/URL reference by alias.
The corresponding error in mail.log file is
30-Jan-2004 10:55:21.40 41c.7e4.1098 tcp_intranet J 0 <group-name>@domain rfc822; <group-name>@domain domain (localhost [127.0.0.1]) 452 4.5.0 error opening file/URL referenced by alias: <group-name>@domain
Now when I construct and Test the LDAP URL from Console, the error I get is:
Search failed with: netscape.ldap.LDAPException: error result (11); Administrative limit exceeded
I have increased the various limits but I still get the same error when I send mail to that group or do a LDAP Test:
The deafult and new limits are:
Sizelimit: Default 2000 New 10000
Timelimit Default 3600 New 3600
Lookthroughlimit Default 5000 New 6000
The corresponding error entry in access log of slapd is:
30/Jan/2004:12:19:26 +051800] conn=34 op=213 RESULT err=11 tag=101 nentries=0 etime=2 notes=U
My search for Administrative limit problem and error opening file/URL error in Sun forum and other groups did get some hits but that did not solve my problem.
I will appreciate any suggestion/comments.
Thanks and Regards,
Maneesh BishtThanks Jay.
My problem has been fixed.
Your suggestion was to increase the lookthrough limit. As you would have noticed in my posting that I had increased this limit to 6000 but that did not solve my problem. Today I increased this limit to 10000. And after that I did not get "administrative limit exceeded" error. Also I do not get "error opening file/URL reference by alias" error while sending E-mail to a particular group of 800+ ids.

Problem opening files with Mac OS Mavericks and Elements
I have recently installed Mac OS 10.9.x Mavericks. Since this I have had problems opening files in Elements 11. I upgraded to Elements 12, blindly hoping the problem would fix itself, however it hasn't. When I try to open a file the Finder window pops up then disappears immediately. Occasionally it will stay open until I scroll down but then closes. I keep the files on an external drive but the drive is working with all other applications, so I don't think it is that. If anyone has had a similar problem and has any ideas I would be grateful as the program is unusable for now. Thanks very much in anticipation
Hi Sjmitc, I followed Barbara's instructions about only about 24 hours ago and since then my files have been opening perfectly. I tried it again before replying to you and they are still opening fine.
I did have to go through my files a couple of times to find all the Elements preferences, but the solution is working fine so far. I will let you know if I have any further problems. It is maddening when it happens, so I hope you can fix yours.
Best of Luck

Henwen, Is this solution still working for you? I tried this same solution on mine a few days ago and had no luck. However, it actually let me open files this afternoon then when I went back in later today, it was doing the disappearing act again.

The iTunes library file cannot be saved. and unknown error occucrred (-54)
The iTunes library file cannot be saved. and unknown error occurred (-54)
Help!! What does this mean?Hi Mr.Jones,
I started with the questions marks because I did not understand what you were asking.
I had the impression that yo wanted to make a backup of the Library.
The Library is "saved" in it's standard folder when you change something. Restarting iTunes, or even restarting the Macbook normally solves problems. -
Whenever I have to open a .doc Safari automatically saves the file into my downloads folder. This is annoying as I don't always want to keep the file and constantly have to go into my downloads folder to clean it out.
I'm a recent windows switcher, and when I opened files in IE, it would give me the option to "open" or "save." Now I understand that even when I chose the open option, it would save a copy of the file into a temporary folder, but at least it's not a place I used regularly.
Is there anyway I can "open" a .doc w/o saving the file first to my downloads folder?
I heard that there's an open office plugin for firefox, that would essentially do this, but any solutions for safari?Paste the document's URL into the Google search field, and if you're given the option to view it as HTML, do so. Alternatively, click here and use the plugin.

I'm running OS 10.6.8 on my 3.06 GHz iMac Intel Core 2 Duo. I recently upgraded to iTunes 10.5.2. I'm not sure when the trouble started but I attempted a restore when the iPod would not play correctly. It would start to play a file and get stuck on 0 seconds. If I put the iPod on shufle, it will stall on 0 seconds for 15 seconds or so and then move on to the next track and stall again and so on. Seemingly randomly, it will play a few tracks but eventually start skipping again. This will continue until the battery is depleted which is fairly quick since the drive is constantly spinning.
My 160GB iPod Classic after restore attempts now is up to date with 2.0.4. and of course, nothing works as it should and I would say the skipping issue is worse than ever.
When I connect with any of three USB connectors, the iPod mounts to the desktop as a grey/silver disk drive picon exactly like the Macintosh HD picon. Then Finder will stall for a few minutes- spinning pinwheel. Somehow, the dock is never affected and I am able to open other applications like Safari or tab through open windows- just no action on the desktop. Eventually, iTunes automatically opens and Finder becomes responsive again. At this point the grey drive picon on the desktop becomes a white drive mount picon, but the iPod does not mount in iTunes, yet. At some point, the iPod attempts to sync, iTunes crashes with the spinning pinwheel and eventually times out and I am prompted to restore the iPod again. Once restored, the iPod properly mounts under devices in iTunes and, as I have done this several times, even occasionally changes to the regular iPod picon on the desktop.
I have restored several times going as far a completely deleting iTunes from my iMac, downloading the latest directly from Apple.com, and attempting to restore again, but to no avail.
I have even used the disk utility to verify and/or repair my Macintosh HD and iPod.
It seems lots of folks are going through this ordeal. Has anyone had any success in fixing the issue, even if only temporarily?one more detail, after a restore, when I attempt to reload music to the ipod, if I try and move, say, 20 files, the transfer seems to work as it should but then stalls on the last file. Eventually, the status will change to "Updates Files on (my ipod)" a and suggests the iPod is syncing even though I have the auto sync feature turned off.
This process eventually works itself out, and seems to take longer relative to the number of files I attempt to transfer. Once done, howver, if I try and eject and dismount the iPod, iTunes stalls with the spinning pinwheel and I am warned that the iPod is syncing again with the spinning candy cane status bar. Eventually thisd works itself out and the iPod dismounts from iTunes and the desktop and eventually the iPod is free to disconnect.
Then if I try and play the music I just transfered, the iPod says there is no music loaded.

Can't open files I've saved in Garageband. Lion 10.7.1
I just starting using the Garag Band app that came with my new mac with Lion 10.7.1. I've used Garage Band before but I am getting alot of "Can't open that file" after I create something and save it and try to open it again. I believe my Garage Band app is updated. Almost seems like a bug. What can I do? Here's a few of the things that happens:
1. I open the app, choose new project, pick "piano", pick choose. New project from Template comes up, I name it and pick "Create" and then I get the message--"The file could not be opened".
2. Sooo, I go back to the menu with "new Project" highlight the piano icon and double click on new project and it opens. I do my project, save, and then when I try to open it again whether I double click on the file or open an existing file or whatever, I can't open the file. I've used garage band on a previous computer and this has never happened.
Am I saving incorrectly. I've tried saving it to the default gB file and to the desktop. It always appears but I cannot open it again. Any suggestions?

Make sure all your software is up to date by running "Software update" from the apple menu.
Then try again.
What are the protection settings for your newly created project?
Select a project you cannot open in the Finder, then open the information panel ("File -> Get Info", or type "cmd-I")
Disclose the "Sharing and Permission" section of the panel and look if the permissions are set correctly, and if the file is not locked, make sure the Filename ends with ".band" and "Garageband" is set to open the File.
Correct the protections, if need be.
If the problem persists, close Garageband and move the preference file (
/Users/your user name/Library/Preferences/com.apple.garageband.plist) to the trash, log off and in again, and try again.
As a last resort, reinstall Garageband

Here's what I'd really like the Script to do when I select one main folder:
Look through all the subfolders, find all the PNG files and convert them to TIFFs, replacing the original PNG files.
Open the converted TIFF files in PSE 11.
Run an action on them in PSE 11 (which I already created that adds a white fill layer below the TIFF file.)
Save each file in their original location and Close each file.
Import them into LR.
Anybody? Bueller? Bueller?
If that's not possible, I'd love an Automator action that can convert the PNG files to TIFFs that can be viewed in LR 4.4. If I convert them in PSE 11, LR can view them, but if I convert them using Automator, LR cannot.
Thanks so much for any help you can provide.
-JenLabVIEW 7 added a property to get a command line argument. For older versions see http://sine.ni.com/apps/we/niepd_web_display.display_epd4?p_guid=B45EACE3DA5B56A4E034080020E74861.
I'm not sure I understand you problem with the Run button. If you set the execution mode to Run When Opened from VI Properties, it should execute once whenever it's called. I think that when building an executable, it changes the property to this if it's not already set. If the application does not have this set, it will not be running at all. I'm assuming that you are talking about the Run button on the toolbar and not a run Boolean that you've created on the front panel.
Since you have the app builder, your other option is to create a DLL. If you can call a DLL in Matlab, then that would probably be simpler.

Pop-Up Option boxes aren't displaying when trying to save or open file types that have them.
Photoshop just becomes unresponsive until I use alt+f4 to close the invisible option dialogue. As a result, I'm currently unable to do things like open PDF files or save JPEGs. Any ideas?
I've checked all other available help databases, and I wasn't able to find this problem. Partly because it's hard to describe, I don't even know what terminology to use. But here is the information that thread recommended posting:
The exact version of the Adobe Application you are running: Photoshop CS5
Your Operating System details: Windows 8 64 bit
Amount of installed RAM: 16 GB
Amount of free disk space: 7 GB on the solid state that photoshop is installed on.
Make/Model of Video Card: Radeon 7870
The EXACT text of any Error Messages you saw: No error message involved, just invisible dialogue boxes whenever doing something that involves a dialogue box, like opening a PDF, or saving a JPEG.
Precise symptoms of your problem:
We'll take saving a JPEG for example. I go through the normal save as process, specify a file name, type, and location, and hit save. Usually, a dialogue box would pop up here, prompting me to chose a quality level before the save. Now, that dialogue box still pops up, but it's not on screen. I can't interact with it, or find it with key commands (such as windows, shift, arrow, which should move it if it were on my other monitor), and I'm not able to do anything else with photoshop until I force close it with alt+f4.
Incidentally, I just found a solution to the problem, but I haven't fixed the problem yet. I unplugged my second monitor, and the dialogue boxes appear as normal. I have been using Photoshop on my primary monitor, though, when my second one has been plugged in, and I haven't been able to see these boxes on my second monitor. Does anyone know how I could fix this such that I don't have to unplug my monitor every time I want to use photoshop?
Thanks. -
Open File dialog user can delete and rename files.
Does any one know if there is a way to prevent a user from deleting and renaming files by right clicking on them in an Open File dialog box?
Well, the problem is that this isn't a LV dialog box. It's the standard Windows file dialog box and this is the way they work in Windows.

Error message 13026 the itunes library file cannot be saved? and damaged fi
this just started to happen today--i tried to open ituens and then it said that the library was a damaged file and i basically had to re-upload all of my songs, vids, etc over again. Now when I try to organize my library an error message: 13026 comes up that in essence says that the itunes library file cannot be saved an unknown error has occured. When i did upload the library again, half of the album art never appeared.
My questions are has anyone else experience this? How should I fix this? Should I uninstall and reinstall itunes completely?Hi there - I am having similar problems, I keep on getting damaged library file error messages, which means I have to reimport my entire music collection files again after deleting the damaged library files. Obviously I lose my playlists every time. I've also had to uninstall and reinstall Itunes several times. I have checked permissions on my iTunes folder as well as the Itunes Library Genius file as above and have 3 types with full control: Fiona PC, Fiona PC administrator and System. I can't seem to change individual permission types away from everything being allowed. Is this part of the problem? would appreciate any help, thanks Fiona.

I have been using a 2012 Mac pro to do HD video editing. I bought a new portable Macbook Air only to find that Maverick no longer has "open files in a new window" which I use all the time in the very large folders of video clips and royalty-free music. I asked at the Apple Store how I could get this back on the Macbook Air and they said it couldn't be done so I thought I would re-format the HD and install 10.7 on it and was notified by the Macbook Air I can't put 10.7 on that computer. Apple use to give this as an option but now they have gone more to the attitude of "Do it our way or go to ****!" In anger I went out and bought a Dell Laptop and Pinnacle Studio 17 which I have been learning to use. I have been an Apple/Mac user since 1979 and would still rather do my video editing on a Mac. Is there any way that I can force the Macbook Air to let me load in OSX 10.7 where there is still the option to "open files in a new window" or is there a way to add this to Maverick? The experts at the Madison, WI Couldn't give me any help on this.
Choose Preferences from the Finder menu, click on the General tab, and uncheck the box to open folders in a new tab.

Automatically open files when dropped into a folder
I have a folder which has a constant stream of images being dropped into it. Is it possible for Photoshop to automatically open recently added images of a certain folder, then save (as .psd) and close to a different location?
It would be nice for Photoshop to do this overnight as new images are being dropped into the folder.As a start you could read this thread.
