Batch execution of Export prompts for JPEG info?

My goal is simple:
Take many .JPG images, resize them, set their quality to 60, and save to file. Simple right?
I can't seem to make this work. I've tried recording "Save for Web" (Adobe lists it as an Export) and input the size adjust changes in the Export dialog and set the quality to 60 and hit the Save button. Stop recording.
Now I Automate - Batch and selection my Action and setup the source and destination folders. The batch runs but it doesn't do what I recorded in the Action? Here are the problems:
1. Image is not resized (apparently seems to ignore all my input in Save for Web dialog)?
2. I'm being prompt by a JPEG save options dialog for each file? Why?
To work around #1 issue, I did the Resize via the Image | Image Size and then "Save for Web" ... but I'm still prompted with JPEG save options (quality settings) when I run my batch using my action.
It seems "Save for Web" just doesn't work for recorded actions, even though I see the "Export" and it does indeed list all the correct settings I used. I see no way to really "edit" recorded actions?
Are Actions an "afterthought" because they really don't seem to be very useful and more often than not require a lot of experimentation and in some cases frustration. The time it takes to "develop" an action that works is often longer than if I just did the tasks manually ... I can't see this as being helpful to an end user like myself.
I've gone thru Adobe Press books and they spend maybe 2-3 pages on Actions/Batch and that's it -- such an import tool and it only gets brief mention? So I'm coming to the conclusion that "Actions" and "Batch" are primitive at best case ... am I missing something? Are there better tools to do this?
Thanks, Rob.

I was able to get it to do what I wanted eventually. Solutions is to NOT use the "Save to Web" dialog.
To get the batch working I did the following during an Action recording:
1. Standard Image Resize (not from Save to Web dialog)
2. Use "Save As" and select JPEG quality options
I was able to successfully use this Action in a Batch on an entire folder of images and get them all resized the quality adjusted and put in a new folder -- without any need for my interaction.
Is there an alternative to "Actions"?
Thanks, Rob.

Generating export datasource for an info object

Hello Guys
I am working on BW 3.5. I need to generate an export data source for an infoobject so that I can load its texts into another target IO. When I go into the infosources tab, and right click on the particular IO, it gives me the option of creating an export data source.
My question is: How do i transport this data source from DEV --> QA? Do we have to re-create the export data source in each system individually, ie DEV, QA and PROD.
Secondly, when I could see the export data source in the the BWQ source system, i tried moving the transfer rules for the DS to the target IO and it gave an error.
Error message:
Mapping between data source 80CRED_GROUPT and source system BWQCLNT100 is inconsistent
Field CRED_GROUP will not be delivered from DataSource 80CRED_GROUPT in source system BWQCLNT100
Field C_CTR_AREA will not be delivered from DataSource 80CRED_GROUPT in source system BWQCLNT100
Field LANGU will not be delivered from DataSource 80CRED_GROUPT in source system BWQCLNT100
Field TXTMD will not be delivered from DataSource 80CRED_GROUPT in source system BWQCLNT100
Why is this happening? And as i asked before, can i transport an export DS or do I create it in each environment individually? Please note: This is an export DS for an info object.

Hi Srinivas,
You can transport the export data source across the landscape(Dev to QA).
You do not eed to generate it in each system.
Also ensure that the conversion of logical system names or the source system names has been maintained.
You are right it looks like the data source creation was a problem hence it is not alllowing importing transfer rules.
You may try to recollect the export data source and transport and then once it is transported successfully replicate metadata of the self system.
Now transport the transfer rules.
Hope it works out,
Best regards,
Sunmit.

Shared calendars are working, but have suddenly started prompting for login info of user who shared the calendar

My boss started having this problem this morning. It may possibly be due to an update. The calendars appear to still be working fine (not 100% sure they're
getting new updates) and I've tried deleting them and re-adding them and the problem persists. Outlook will pop up the Security prompt asking for login credentials, with the username of the person whose calendar is shared pre-filled in the user name section.
If you click cancel everything continues to work but it prompts you again in a few minutes.
These calendars have previously worked perfectly with no issues.

Hi,
Please confirm if there is any changes in Shared calendar account and your boss mailbox.
Since the issue occurs after the update in your Boss's computer, please reboot the local machine. And recreate the Outlook profile to have a try. About opening shared calendar in new profile, please open the shared calendar by the following steps:
1. Switch to Calendar pane.
2. Click Open Calendar > Open Shared Calendar.
3. Click Name to select the user who shared the calendar to this user.
4. Then click OK to open the Calendar.
Check whether there is any error when open it. If there is any permission error, please check the folder permission in shared user side.

PSE9: prompted for "save as" during batch processing??

In PSE 9, my process multiple files seems to have stopped working. I am trying to batch convert some CR2 files to Jpeg. When I try to run it I get prompted during the convert operation to "save as" for each individual file (and the jpeg isn't an option). This used to work, anyone know what changed?
Thanks for the help,

Raw files work best as already open images in the Editor.
Try using open files (File à Open) then select your batch of raw files using Shift+click or cmd+click to select individual files. Wait for Camera Raw to open and click the button Select All (top left) then apply your saved default settings to all the selected images. Keep them all selected, choose 8 bits/channel and click Open Images (towards bottom right) to send the selected images into the Editor.
After the Editor opens go to the top menu bar click File >Process Multiple Files.
Set the dropdown for your source to Opened Files then for the destination, check same as source or a new folder.
At the bottom of the dialog under File Type choose the jpeg quality from the dropdown e.g. Max, High, Medium or Low.
Click OK and leave the program to run (this can take a bit of time as raw files are usually large). When finished close the Editor and return to your folder to see your Jpegs next to your raw files. Or go to your new destination folder if preferred.

How to force sql developer to prompt for user input for every execution ?

Hi Folks,
Environment: Oracle 11g (on Windows 7)
SQL Developer: *3.1.07*
I am executing a PL/SQL code off Sql Developer. The code uses substitution variables to prompt user for input. However,I am only prompted for the user input for the very first run of the code. For the subsequent executions, the code simply picks up the user input from the very first run. This behavior persists for all subsequent runs of the code.
I have executed the same piece of code from SQL*PLUS and the behavior seems normal (i.e. I am prompted for fresh input for every execution)
How can flush out the old user input so I can be prompted for new user input for every run of the code in sql developer?
Thanks in advance

Marydee-You asked me about resizing apps for jpeg images & how 2 get info

Marydee- You asked me about resizing apps for jpeg images. And you also asked how to get photo info for each image in iphoto
Here's what I found in the iPhoto6 Help Menu:
Showing a photo's image and camera information
iPhoto stores EXIF information with each photo in your library. This information includes the photo's image size, the date and time it was taken, and the type of camera it was taken on, as well as important exposure information, such as the shutter speed, aperture, and film ISO.
To show image and camera information:
Select the photo and choose Photos > Get Info.
You can also see a photo's title, date taken, rating, format, and comments by clicking the Information button in the bottom-left corner of the iPhoto window.

MII prompts for a login for every execution of a workbench object

Hi,
Is there a setting in MII 12.1.9 Build(108) somewhere, by which I can make the system not to prompt for a login for every execution of a Web object in the workbench?
I have all of the following checked in the System Configuration page -
1. NetweaverDataSourceCaching
2. ResolveMachineName
3. RunTransactionExpirationCheck
4. TransactionCaching

Hi Chanti,
Check out this note: 1538719
And
"Additionally the customer needs to review the security and upgrade documents which can be found on SMP under Software Downloads (top menu) -> Installation and Upgrades (lh menu) -> Installation and Upgrade Guides (lh menu) -> SAP Business Suite Applications (lh menu) -> SAP Manufacturing -> SAP Manufacturing Integration and Intelligence (lh menu) -> SAM MII 12.1 (lh menu). Both of these documents were upgraded specifically for SP08 and the security changes."
The background is that there were significant changes made to the underlying NW package and corresponding changes in MII starting with 12.1.8 which are what is causing the difficulties you experience.

In Mavericks, every time I try to create a new folder on the drive I get a prompt for my password. I checked Get Info on the main drive and under Sharing

I got a new 27" iMac with 10.8.5 and migrated a 10.6.8 system and files. It was working fine. After about 2 weeks I was looking at the Sharing & Permissions and saw an account "wheel". I mistakenly (I NOW know it was a mistake) changed the permission to no access and subsiquenty could not boot the computer. I had an older iMac so I built a boot disk with the Mavericks installer on it. Booted the computer and restored from a Time Machine backup previous to the change of permissions of the "wheel" account. I went ahead and did a clean install of Mavericks
The computer is now running with Mavericks installed and I am rebuilding. When I go to create a new folder on the system drive I get prompted for a pasword.
When I checked the permissions and sharing on the main drive it tells me "you can only read".
I am logged in with an admin account. I have run Disk Utiltiy and Tech Tool Pro's permission verify and repair. Given what happend last time I changed permissions I am reluctant to make any changes.
Anyone have an idea as to what I should do.
Thanks in advance.

Report sometimes prompts for database logon prior to execution

I have installed the Crystal Reports Integration Addon on our system and it works correclty for users on our terminal services server. But when I installed it on a user's PC running Windows XP, when I go to execute an existing report, the Runtime viewer launches, and then displays a Database logon panel with the Server field filled in, the database field is blank, and the SA user and password fields are populated, and I get an error that says logon failed. I type in the SA user id and password, but get the same error.
If the same user logs onto the TS server, the runtime viewer launches correctly and the report prompts for input, then displays the appropriate data (no database logon is requested). But if it runs at that user's workstation, the viewer launches, and then prompts for database logon.
We are running SAP 2007A SP00 PL47, CR Basic 2008 for SAP Business One, and the runtime viewer is Crystal Reports 2008 Runtime SP1. version 2.0.0.7

Hi Bruce,
I am not sure what the problem is.
The only workaround I can think of is to change the Integrated Security in the report to true. This means that you will be using Windows Authentication as opposed SQL Authentication. This will not prompt for SQL username and password.
Usually this is NOT an ideal process as you will have to Add each and every Windows user in the SQL Database you are trying to access. For example, you have to add DOMAIN_NAME\User_Name under the Database Properties.
I am not sure what the minimum security you need to run the report. You will try a few different options and see what works best for you. Avoid permissions that would give users ability to write to the SQL database.
Again, I know this is not ideal. But I am not sure what else can be done here.

Well I have checked all the logs and there are no errors. What I have found out is that it successfully runs but there is 0 ouput, in essence it isn't exporting any data.
Here it shows that it completed successfully but in the export directory there isn't data when there should be.

After jumpstart host doesn't prompt for root password

Hiya gang,
I am migrating my jumpstart functionality to a new server and while it would appear that 100% of things are identical on both (as far as my /jumpstart tree is concerned), when I jumpstart a host (V240, in this case, but I've seen it on a SunBlade 150 too) everything appears to go well, but after the host reboots at the very end and I attempt to log in on console as root I am not even prompted for a password.
I've booted to single user over the net and on the disk that was just jumpstarted I see what would appear to be a normal Solaris system. There are no indications that I can find of why it wouldn't prompt for password at all, and I'm not well enough versed with the way the login functionality works to know why this is.
My new jumpstart server is running Solaris 10 (08/07), and I'm trying to jump a host with the same version. The very same jumpstart using my old jumpstart server works just fine.
Thanks in advance,
pb

...so, I checked them out and /etc/pam.conf and /usr/lib/security/pam_mkhomedir.so are both owned nobody:nobody, which smelled like an NFS issue since both of those files are copied over to the hosts as part of a JASS_FILES variable, but during the finish script execution (they're copied by install-templates.fin). So, I did some digging there and found another Sun forum thread that had info on it:
http://forums.sun.com/thread.jspa?forumID=841&threadID=5100999
...so I made the requisite change to /etc/default/nfs (setting the max version to 3) and the next jumpstart I tested worked perfectly, password prompt and all. All files that were previously owned nobody:nobody had the correct ownership this time around.
Crazy!
Thanks again Darren for your input!

Will Adobe ever add support for JPEG-XR?

There's been quite a bit of work done on the Flash Player to display and export JPEG-XR files. During the Flash CS6 prerelease, the Flash team talked about additional JPEG-XR support for things like spritesheet creation.
I know there's an ancient Photoshop plug-in for JPEG-XR, but does Adobe have any plans to make JPEG-XR a first-class citizen in Photoshop? Considering the numerous benefits the format offers, I'm puzzled as to why this hasn't been added.
Either way, it would be helpful to get the scoop. If there are no plans to support it then I'll buy a product that does, but I'd prefer Photoshop.

I've been using XnConvert to convert uncompressed files to JPEG-XR. It's a free, cross-platform, batch file converter:
http://www.xnconvert.com/
XnConvert doesn't have as much control over compression settings as I would like, but the JPEG-XR files it creates are 30% – 50% smaller than comparable JPEG files saved using Photoshop's "Save for Web".
