Can't edit remote files with nemo/thunar/...

Hi there,
I've got two kinda-related problems:
1) When I browse a remote server with any file manager (Nemo, but also Thunar and PCmanfm), and when i double-click to edit/view a file, the default program always opens empty, like it was called without any arg. If i try to open it in a terminal ("vim ftp://www.website.com/index.php"), it works without problem.
2) When browsing remote servers, Nemo (and only Nemo, i don't have this bug with Thunar or PCmanfm) will try to open files with the wrong program. On local, php files are opened with Vim and jpg with Gpicview. But on a FTP, php files are opened with spacefm (!) and jpg with Gimp.
Any ideas how i could fix that ?

I suggest you make a symlink from that directory to your ~ and call it 'remote computing done properly'.
I have the suspicion that software needs to be aware they are browsing on a remote computer. They get fed with probably invalid flile path's and thus open an empty window. I think that is not good. It should be transparent like the alternative method I just gave you. Gvfs should handle all the dirty details, that is what it's for.
However it could still be bug (I HOPE!).

Can I edit PDF files with PDF Pack?

can I receive an PDF file and make changes to that file with my Adobe PDF Pack. and then create attachments to this file once i have completed the changes?

Hi maddog#1,
Adobe PDF Pack doesn't allow you to edit a PDF file; you need the full version of Acrobat for that.
Please let us know if you have further questions.

[SOLVED]Can't edit .desktop files with Gnome 3. Application disappears

I've been trying to edit the desktop file for gimp so that I can run a custom command when it loads.
Basically I want to run GTK_MODULES= gimp instead of just straight gimp, because the global menu doesn't work well with gimp and running it in this way forces gimp to use the normal menus.
As soon as I edit the file, gimp disappears from my applications menu. If I click on the .desktop file through nautilus, it says there is a problem and it cannot run the application. I'm not sure how to open a .desktop file from the terminal, so I can't look for more specific error messages.
I tried creating a script and pointing the desktop file to that instead, and I tried using GTK_MODULES= && gimp, but both give the same problem. As soon as I click save, it becomes unusable, only fixable by reinstalling gimp.
Do you think it's possible to do what I'm wanting to do?

Can't edit ps6 file with ITC Zapf Dingbats in cs6 extend.?

Dear sir/madam,
I had worked out a psd file within ITC Zapf Dingbats font. But now I can't edit it in new purchased Ps Cs6 extend. Can you help me to copy the font from my older Xp laptop (Ps6) to the newest Win7 laptop (Ps Cs6)? Many thanks.
Best Regards,
Benson Yang

At least on both my windows 7 and windows xp machines it looks like that might be a font that an adobe program installed.
Maybe adobe reader or acrobat, but my guess is an older version of photoshop like yor photoshop 6 installed it.
I say that because the font is in the C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Fonts\Reqrd\Base\PFM folder (windows xp), although the name is not obvious (it's a postscript font as Mylenium wrote), so it may well be
a commericial font because i know they sell it at the adobe store.
Oh it's called i believe ZD______.PFM

Can't download remote files with Adobe AIR

Hi all,
I have an adobe AIR application that tries to allow the user
to directly download a remote file. Here's the current code:
var fileRef:FileReference = new FileReference();
// Bunch of Event listeners here
var urlReq:URLRequest = new URLRequest("
http://www.randomfilehere.com/hello.txt");
fileRef.download(urlReq);
Now, when I try to download any random file, let's say
http://www.example.com/buca-di-beppo.gif,
I will get a OS-specific download box that asks me where to save
the file; I choose desktop and 'save' yet nothing happens (but when
I trace the HTTP response through Fiddler I get HTTP/1.1 200 OK,
and apparently all data has been successfully transferred to the
host machine, it just is not saved as a file.
A worse problem occurs with getting a file through HTTPS, as
in https://www.example.com/secure-image.gif. Air will try to
initiate approximately 3,940 http requests (plus or minus 3), that
all return 200 OKs, before eventually stalling (and sometimes
getting a 502).
Does anyone have any idea how to resolve these problems? The
AIR application is of course not a browser-based application so I
didn't think the cross-domain.xml would be applicable here (and if
it is, I don't know where to put it). Any help would be
GREATLY appreciated! Thanks very much for your time.

Help?! Can I edit MTS files with Mac OX 10.04

I have tried several times do edit MTS files in Final cut pro 6, but it does not recognise the files.
After that I tried do converte the files to AVI or MPEG-4 and still the finla cut stop, just watching the clip... Is it possible that the OX 10.4 does not suport this type of files to work on final cut pro 6??
Best
Cris

Thanks for the information. My version does not allowed me to log and transfer the all folder from the camera.
So, if I convert the files with the clipwrap, i will be hable to import it in final cut as a file? But still, my computer gives me a message to: - turning off unlimited RT, increase the speed of the system, lowering the compression data rate and others... So I thought that this OX 10.04 version is not enought to work with this files?

Can i edit MTS files with premiere elements 13

I have a new camcorder and I have a problem editing with premiere elements 7, does elements 13 offer a solution? I believe it is the type of file that is not compatible.

In this thread I have no interests but to supply reliable information to you. What I have written stands as is. And, my answer to your questions will continue to be honest and for your consideration. Any questions or need clarification, please do not hesitate to ask me.
As for AVCHD.mts and AVCHD.mp4 in camera whose specifications offer the choice of AVCHD or .MP4.....both have been reported to use a form of AVCHD video compression with different wrapper formats (.mts and .mp4). Again, I did not post to go further into that. Please refer to the following link's post dated February 12, 2014 as one discussion of the matter.
FCP.co Forum :: Topic: AVCHD vs. MP4 ? (1/2)
I did not discover that AVCHD.mts does not play back the audio portion of an AVCHD.mts file when played back in the Elements Organizer 13 player. That has been the reality of Premiere Elements 13/Elements Organizer 13 users who found this out by themselves later than sooner. And, I confirm their results in those cases. There is no fix for this at the present time, and that is a user to user honest non marketing report. If this Elements Organizer issue is not an important concern for you, then this is a non issue for you.
Best wishes with your projects.

How can I edit the file name of the home page?

How can I edit the file name of the home page?
Gr Ammani

I have a similar issue with regards to the filename...
When I navigate to my website, it doesnt work unless I actually type the filename at the end of it. Example: type in "www.whitelion.com" (this is my real domain name) and it doesnt work. When I type in "www.whitelion.com/index.html" then it works.
This is obviously inconvenient because my clients will never know to add the filename to the end of the site.
Is there any setting or way to get the page to appear by just typing the original domain name without adding the extension?
Thanks,

How can I associat ".swf" files with flashlite 2.1

How can I associate ".swf" files with flashlite 2.1? When I
install flash lite 2.0,it can do ---- click .swf files system can
autoly use flashlite to play.But now I install flashlite 2.1,it
lost this ability return as "unknow files formate".
Now,how can I reassociate ".swf" with flashlite 2.1?
first: I must use flashlite 2.1.
second:I must click .swf file directly.
I know another way to open :open the player and then find the
.swf,and open it. But ,unfortunately,I can not use this way to
open.Now I will be looking for another way.

unfortunately, the 2.1 developer edition you have installed
has not overwritten the original version integrated into the
symbian OS by the manufacturer. This means that the only way to
open the 2.1 files is to open the 2.1 player from your apps menuu,
and click on the swf file. You will only get direct access if the
updated player is in a firmware update for you handset.

I can't edit PDF file. What do I do?

Can't open .wmf files with Illustrator

I'm using Creative Suite CS2 on a PC/Windows XP operating system.
I'm suddenly unable to launch Illustrator when I try to open a .wmf file from within Windows Explorer. Instead, I get an error message that the file itself is not a valid program (DUH!).
I also cannot open them with the "Edit Original" command in InDesign.
I have tried changing the "Opens With Program..." option in the file properties from within Windows Explorer over and over.
Oddly, I can always open .wmf files with Illustrator from within Adobe Bridge, simply by double-clicking the file. And of course, I can open them from within Illustrator by simply going to "open file".
But I really want to be able to use the "Edit Original" feature in InDesign to launch and open .wmf files in Illustrator.
Anybody know what's going on? Is this a Windows problem, an Illustrator problem or an InDesign problem? And how do I fix it?
Thanks so much for any suggestions.

I'm sorry you're having this problem with Illustrator. Would you mind reposting over on the Illustrator forums? You've posted in the AIR forum and I think you'll have better luck over there.
Thanks,
Chris

I have a new Nikon D750 sitting on my desk and can't edit the photos with any adobe product? We are in full wedding season and am a little frustrated. Photo mechanics opens them right up to download them. I am using the Nikon software to convert them

I have a new Nikon D750 sitting on my desk and can't edit the photos with any adobe product? We are in full wedding season and am a little frustrated. Photo mechanics opens them right up to download them. I am using the Nikon software to convert them into tiffs. when is the camera raw update coming out. I am not the only photographer with this issue check out all the chatter about it.

This happens every single time a new camera comes out from one of the two big camera makers. Nikon and Canon do not send preproduction units to Adobe, so Adobe has to go out and buy a D750 or whatever from the store to test and profile it before they can update Lightroom. They can't get one earlier than you and I can. The profiling is quite an extensive operation. Other camera makers do send preproduction units, use dng, or do the profiling in-house and there you often get support right from release. If camera makers would finally embrace an open raw format such as dng, this whole problem would be gone but both Canon and Nikon seem to think they live in an upside-down world where their clients only use their software.
Usually the dead period only lasts a few weeks but it is frustrating nevertheless. My only advice is to not buy a new camera at the day of release and expect to have third parties to support it. You definitely should not be buying these cameras right away if your business depends on it. Aperture, Capture One, etc. have the exact same problem. No third party (read non-Nikon in this case) will support the camera from the release date. Some are quicker than other adding support. Adobe is somewhere in the middle of the pack in this respect. Nobody outside of Adobe knows when an update comes out. Could be tomorrow, could be a few more weeks or a month. They might jump straight to Lightroom 6 and never add direct support to LR 5. Sometimes they will first bring out a beta version of dng converter that will convert the new camera's nef files to dng, which will work fine in the current Lightroom before updating Lightroom itself.

Can FCP6 edit avi files? FCE 3.5 does.

Can FCP6 edit avi files? FCE 3.5 does. I have Quicktime 7.6.2. If I go to more recent Quicktine will Final Cut Pro6 edit avi clips? Thanks for any help. It's confusing because my Final Cut Express does edit avi.

Thanks for the reply. Yes, FCE 3.5 does handle .AVI without rendering, the same as if it was a .mov. I just tried it to make sure I wasn't imagining it. I don't understand how you would render it in FCP before working with it. An AVI just shows up as black frames. And once you work with it wouldn't it become surrendered? I've been using QuickTime to convert from AVI to mov. Is that the bet way. I'm using 1080p video. I wonder why dcs will do AVI, but not fcp?? Thanks again.

Edit pdf files with surface touch

how do i edit pdf files with surface win

Adobe Reader products (Reader XI desktop, Reader for iOS, Reader for Android, Reader Touch for Windows 8, etc.) are free and mainly focused on PDF viewing capabilities.
If you actually want to modify text or images in PDF or create PDFs from Word or Excel files, etc., you need Acrobat XI Pro or Standard (paid product).
The following page shows the product comparison for Acrobat/Reader XI for desktop.
http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/product-comparison.html
If you have a Surface Pro (running the Windows 8 operating system), you can run Acrobat XI Pro or Standard in the desktop environment for editing PDFs. However, if you have a Surface RT (running the Windows RT operating system), you are not able to run any of the Acrobat desktop products (including Reader XI) because they are not compatible with the Windows RT operating system.

Hi sir im using fcp 7 for video editing in i mac, how can i edit mts files in fcp 7 without log n transfer, is their solution for fcp 7?

>No, you are not right.
Going to question the biggest contributor to this forum? (Yes, my ego is talking). OK then...
>Install the QT-Plugin, restart your Mac and you will be able to import and use .mts files in FCP 7.
Sure...yes, that makes it POSSIBLE to read the files natively in FCP...if they come from a Panasonic camera. BUT...just try working with those files. Right away the system won't be nearly as responsive as it would if they were ProRes. First...there are no sequence settings for that format...so you'll have to use ProRes and have a green render bar. BUT, that's no big deal. The big deal is trying to work with the AVCHD format, which is VERY processor intensive...inside an application that doesn't like to work with much outside of the FCP editing codecs.
Is it possible? Sure? Will it work well...will you be as zippy and error free as if you converted to ProRes? Not by a long shot. OH, but don't just take my word for it. Go ahead...try it and see. No skin off my nose...no waste of my time. See how well this works.
I'm just here to relate real world working solutions to issues. And yes, I did try that plugin, and boy, was editing a pain.
