Cannot edit DC metadata of a project

I have checked out DC in writable mode. ie from inactive DCs
but in the project, i am not able to edit the DC metadata part.
and i am able to edit the web dynpro component part
this problem started after i re imported a model which was already added in the Used DC in my project
the changes of the model after re import are also not seen in the web dynpro component ( as i am using this model in used models in my web dynpro component)
i thought that after re importing the model i should go to used DC of the project where i have included this model project and add it again for the changes to be reflected, but i am not able to do so as i am not able to edit the DC metadata of the project.
i checked in, removed from client and re imported the project.
but still no help
the message when i try to edit the DC metadata is -
"The DC definition could not be checked out : The file .dcdef is checked out by others.!"
kindly help. thanks.

Hi Dipti,
Particular DC is already checkedout by some one.because of that it is not allowing you to checkou.You can check the version of metadata file and who has currently checkout that in DTR perspective using view version graph option.
Hope this will be useful for u.
Thanks,
Naidu

I cannot edit project in project server after editing it in project professional

Hi
i cannot edit project in project server 2013 after editing it in project professional.
i.e I created an enterprise project in project server and then edit it with project professional. after i published it to the server and open it with project server, it shows the changes. but when i click on a cell, suddenly the task list and gantt table
hidden!!
it happens even if I start a project with project professional.
I'm the admin user.
what's the problem?
Thanks.

CU means cumulative updates, which are intermediate bug fix packages between SP. The latest CU for Project 2013 was release on September 12th. See reference

Any work you do in Lightroom is in the catalog. It is impossible to use Lightroom without a catalog.
In addition, your photos are filed in a specific location, which is determined when you import the photos (this may be a location you have specified or it may be the default location chosen by Lightroom).
So ... unless you specifically choose to delete your photos, your photos have not been deleted. To find them, open Lightroom and select File->Open Recent and select each catalog shown there until you find the one with your 170 photos.
And now ... a word to the wise: as gvb279 and Keith said, you absolutely need to stop doing whatever it is you are doing and learn the basics of Lightroom. You are clearly in need of such basic understanding. In addition to the links given above, there are many valuable instructional tutorials here: Getting Started with Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 5 | Adobe TV

Cannot Edit Captions in One File

Hello,
I'm using Captivate 3, and I have this one project file that I cannot edit the captions in. I wasn't having this problem until I imported a slide from another project. Ever since the slide imported, I haven't been able to edit the text captions. When I double click on the caption I want to edit, nothing happen. If I click once on the caption to highlight it, and go to the menu and click on an option to edit the caption, nothing happens. Captivate is only doing this on the project which I imported a slide, every other project I have opened works fine. I tried to save the file as a different name, and I still get the same result. Does anyone have any other ideas? Am I not doing something right? Thanks in advance for the help!

Hello,
Could be that the CP-file or objects have become corrupted. I'd recommend creating a new blank file with the same resolution, and copy and paste the slides to this new file. Better not all at once, so that you could perhaps find the "guilty slide".

JDI: Cannot EDIT a java source file in a loaded, inactive DC

I have finished JDI Scenario 2+. I have since built a new workspace and imported my Development Configuration. I would now like to edit the java code and do a re-deployment.
Problem: I cannot Edit the file; it is read-only. I was able to edit the file from a different workspace yesterday, at which time when I typed in the editor I was prompted to create and activity and I did. I did NOT mark it for exclusive check-out.
Since then I have done a REVERT on that activity,but I still cannot edit this file in my second new wrokspace. In the context menus, in the DTR sub-menu, the EDIT selections are always grayed-out.
So, can someone advise how I can get the EDIT selections to be not grayed-out so that I can edit this file in the Java editor?
Thanks,
Mike R.

Hi Mike,
You are right, and the instructions are wrong: the "Create Project" must be done from the "Inactive DCs" view (for the sources to be editable).
The "Active DCs" view will give you sources from the "active" workspace (containing all "activated" sources), which is read-only. For DCs you work on (and modify), you should sync sources from the "Inactive DCs" view, and for DCs you depend on you should sync archives/sources from the "Active DCs" view.
I have requested for a correction of this error in our documentation.
Regards,
Manohar
PS: There is now a dedicated SDN forum for JDI (under WebAS) - so you can post your questions there in future.

Editing XMP metadata in Bridge for checked-out files?

Our custom connector does not implement the WRITE_XMP_METADATA Capability because we do not want to change the XMP of a file in our DAM system without checking in a new file version.
However, when a file is checked out through Adobe Drive, we would expect to be able to edit its XMP metadata in Bridge just like we can for local files.
It looks like this is still not possible with Adobe Drive 3, i.e. if your connector does not implement the WRITE_XMP_METADATA Capability you cannot edit XMP for checked out files either.
It seems weird that you can edit XMP metadata for checked out files with regular CS applications but not with Bridge. Is this something that is expected to be fixed in a future version?
Thanks

In our design, editing XMP data in Bridge and in regular CS applications is different, the former one will be routed to SetXMPHandler in you connector, in the latter case, CS applications take the normal file writting ways to embed XMP data in the file content.
The purpose of this design is to offer similar user experience for normal users when they edit XMP data for AD assets and local file assets, they don't need to check-out files first.
To address your issue, I think you can add some codes in SetXMPHandler to auto check-out files before real XMP operation, and check-in them before exiting the handler
We will consider to make some enhancements for this part, that's, to allow editng XMP data for the checked-out files in Br, in the next release, thanks for this advice.

Problem with Bridge CS4 reading/editing XMP metadata added in Bridge CS6

Please excuse me if this is a dumb/obvious question. I did try searching the forums for similar problems and didn't find anything that seemed to speak to my issue.
I'm having a problem where Bridge CS4 won't read/edit xmp metadata (specifically, keywords and descriptions in the IPTC panel) that I have entered using CS6. it will read some files, not others. The files are all .mp4s. Of these files, I can read/edit IPTC panel metadata for some of them in Bridge CS4; I can add metadata for all of them in CS6. I see no particular pattern in these files to explain what is and isn't read/editable in CS4.
My question is whether this is a compatibility issue between different versions of CS (in this instance, CS4 and CS6). i know it's a tired refrain to blame software when it could easily be user error, in which case I'd be frankly delighted to know what i'm doing wrong. Please bear with me as I give a few more details.
I'm using macs. I've tried this on multiple systems - for instance, on a mac pro 3 which for some reason has both CS4 and CS6 installed, i can add and edit keywords using CS6, but not when using CS4. Again, in CS4, some .mp4 files read/edit, others do not.
Bridge CS4 blames the files and tells me that the selected file cannot store xmp metadata, and that the properties cannot be modified. To be specific, in the metadata panel it says "this property cannot be modified"; in the keyword panel, it says, "This file (zzz.mp4) cannot store xmp metadata. No changes will occur." This seems odd, because I'm able to add xmp metadata for the same files in CS6 on the same computer, and other computers. I know this problem would disappear if all our computers were using CS6 (or CC), but unfortunately that's not a possibility at the moment. Some of them only have CS4.
Computer details (not an exhaustive list, but two instances): mac pro 3.1 running snow leopard, 16GB memory; macbook pro 4.1 running snow leopard, 4GB memory; adobe bridge cs6 (5.0.0.399) and cs4 (3.0.0.464).
Things I have tried:
Permissions - the files are set to read/write for everyone. Given that I can add/edit metadata in CS6, it doesn't seem to be a permission issue.
Purging the cache - other users seem to have had problems adding metadata in Bridge CS4 where purging the cache for affected files solved the problem. Didn't work in this instance.
Upgrading all affected computers to CS6/CC is beyond my control. I need to figure out why CS4 won't let me read/add/edit xmp metadata, if only for the sake of understanding the broader implications for interoperability.
Any helpful suggestions would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
Kevin

adobe bridge cs6 (5.0.0.399) and cs4 (3.0.0.464).
Without having experience with mp4 files and metadata my observation is that you certainly have not updated Bridge CS6 ( should be 5.0.2.4) and I believe also not the latest version of CS4, can't imaging this also stayed at .0.0 so first try to update both.
And if CS4 can read the data of some files it should be capable of reading them all. Be sure to have the files completely cached first, can take a while.
Other things to try in CS4 is refresh preferences (hold down option key while restarting Bridge and choose reset prefs).
And also check for hidden cache files using menu view/show hidden files. Sometimes those cache files can be troublesome between versions.
If purge cache did not work and reset prefs also failed consider to also delete Bridge plist file and Bridge cache file manual (from user library)

A series of video files (0001.MTS to 0005.MTS) were imported into premiere, when moved to timeline premiere combined them and made them look like one long clip named 0001.MTS. Multiple motion edits and opacity edits were made. When project manager moved the project, the actual video content of 0002.MTS to 0005.MTS was missing(source clips are still there but they were playing and working as part of that 0001.MTS timeline clip before). Those parts of the 0001.MTS clip in the timeline were Danger Striped and can be relinked but now have no edits anymore. The edits are apparently only linked with the original 0001.MTS source clip but extend beyond the actual range of the actual source clip. At the time I thought it was weird that premiere displayed the whole string of clips as one (with one name and no breaks) but it all works in the original project file but cannot be transferred to another location without multiple clips showing Danger Stripes.I need to move it and preserve the dozens of motion and opacity edits linked to the apparently oversized timeline clip. HELP!! any ideas?
I did not nest any clips or sequences, premiere just seemed to combine the clips under one name when I moved them to timeline.

Cannot edit Oracle Spatial data

Hello,
I am running into some problems with my Oracle Spatial data. Maybe somebody has some insight. Here's what is going on:
1) I am able to connect to and view the data in uDig but I cannot edit the data and also the data shows up in the table of contents with a line symbol even though it is polygon data (it renders correctly in the map as polygons). I try using the 'Create Polygon Geometries' tool and it errors saying 'Create Polygon Tool' cannot operate on current layer.
2) When I try testing edits through WFS-T it errors and tells me that the table is read only.
The table is in the USERS tablespace and I have verified that it is read/write. I also set object permissions on the user: ALTER, DELETE, INSERT, SELECT, UPDATE
Am I missing something obvious? Anyone else have this problem? Thanks a lot for any ideas anyone has.

My apologies for the confusion. My insert statement DID work just fine. I just wasn't seeing it...probably because I was querying the table in Enterprise Manager DB Control and it looks like it takes some time to refresh. So it appears that user permissions are not the issue.
I have used two data loading methods:
Before loading data, I needed to create a user defined coordinate reference system:
1 create projection operation for my custom projection
2 configure projection parameters
3 create the projected CRS in mdsys.sdo_coord_ref_system
First data load steps
1 shp2sdo.exe my_shapefile my_table -g geom -s 1000002 -v
2 execute my_table.sql
3 execute sqlldr.exe
4 EXECUTE SDO_MIGRATE.TO_CURRENT('my_table','GEOM');
5 CREATE INDEX my_table_index ON my_table(geom) INDEXTYPE IS MDSYS.SPATIAL_INDEX;
Second data load steps:
1 open up MapBuilder, make a connection, and go through the Import Shapefile wizard. MapBuilder automatically creates a spatial index.
Does it appear that I am missing any steps or doing anything obviously wrong that would be causing me to not be able to edit the data through clients such as uDig or WFS-T?

CProject user cannot edit (confirm) their assigned tasks

Dear Experts,
we are facing an unexpected behaviour on cProjects: project user cannot edit (confirm) their assigned tasks, because the authorizations at the task level for user appear as Read (authorizations view on task), while on the project definition, for the same tasks the user is assigned Write permissions. Something must be happening in between that we are not getting right.
More details on the configuration behind and the process:
- In Project definition level, project roles (coming from a project template) are staffed to users (business partners)
- Project roles coming from project template are assigned to a project role type with Default authorization set as Read. Because we want all project users to be able to access in read mode to the whole project and tasks; and then be able to edit (Confirm) only their assigned tasks. Except for the project manager role, who has a different project role type assigned wih Admin default authorization set
- After making the staffing at project level, this seems to be working fine: all project users have read access assigned at project structure level and rest of tasks, except the project manager who has Admin authorization. And for each task, the user assigned to the task has write permissions.
- But when a user open the task from the tasks dashboard, and go to the Authorizations tab, then the user has Read permission for the same task, which causes the consequence of not being able to Edit and Confirm.
Can you guide us to understand why the Write authorization is being overriden to Read at user access? Should not the default authorization “read” at project role type be overwritten by the assignment of the user to the task?
Maybe is there other configuration setting that is missing or needs to be checked?
Many thanks in advance,
Roberto

Thanks Ravi, I answer your questions:
1) How did you give write access? - Manually in ACL-Authorisations tab or through selection of responsible role/person in basic tab.
we use the second option. We create projects from templates that have roles assigned to tasks. After we complete staffing in the project, we assign users (business partners) to each project role. After this, automatically, users are assigned as task Responsible and receive their tasks assigned in the task dashboard.
Question here: since we do not use Resources, the field responsible resource is not used/filled- Is this required?
2) Whether the task accessed by the user is in 'Released' status?
yes, tasks are released, so that ther users receive the task in Tasks Dashboard, but due to the permissions issue, they cannot confirm task
The only possible workaround we have found to solve the issue is to assign Write authorizations to all users, but at project level. So the consequence is that users can edit all the project tasks (not only their assigned tasks) and we want to avoid that. We want users to have read access to whole project and write access to their assigned tasks (by staffinf Users to roles)
thanks again for help.
best regards,
Roberto

Cannot edit the manifest.xml in flash builder extension builder 2.1

In flash builder I installed the extension builder 2.1 to build a photoshop extension. The basic structure created automatically the manifest.xml file but i cannot edit this file in the editor and If I edit outside of the flash builder it does not reflect the changes.
What I want is to add an icon for my extension.

SOLVED!!
===========
When creating an adobe extension project in Adobe extension Builder with Flash Builder 4.6, a folder ".stage-extension" is created but not listed in the directory in the Package Explorer Tab. However the manifest.xml file in the bin-debug folder is shown giving the impression that it could be edited.
To edit the manifest.xml file, locate the location of your project and find: YourPorjectName>.stage-extension>CSXS>manifest.xml
Edit this manifest.xml for the changes to apply.

Editing SharePoint metadata for Visio files

When I am editing Visio files metadata in SharePoint 2007, it opens a web dialog page to enter the metadata for the SharePoint library, but, when a column field is type: choice-drop down menu. It doesn't take current metadata for those fields, so, the current
metadata has to be chosen again. Is there any technical document that explains this?
It also takes too much time to open Visio templates in SharePoint, it doesn't happen with Visio standard files, the solution was to uncheck automatically detect settings, but is there any other solution?
I am using Windows 7, Office 2010, Visio 2010 and Internet Explorer v8.

Hi Javi,
thank for the reply,
after some discussion, trial and research, seems there is a process that is missed.
as i know, when we check out the document the metadata itself cannot be edited. so then while we already saved the metadata, as by design the web file properties will be out and the metadata needs to be re-input again, as they will not be passed on check
in process.
so, this behavior is most likely by design, if you need to customize this then i think you need to open a ticket to us.
"By default you cannot edit MetaData in case the document is checked-out - which is by design and acceptable. But if you open up a checked-out document from a WSS doclib and edit it in Word and click File > Save As - in order to save the document back
into WSS - you are prompted for typing in MetaData (Web File Properties). In case you change or fill out some of them and in order to see them reflected on the WSS page you have to check-in the document again - which you will be ask for to do while closing
the office application btw.
If you keep the document checked-out the metadata are not reflected on the WSS page and are hidden (stored somewhere...) to the user. Users are confused because they cannot see the Metadata they typed in until they check-in the document. This wasn´t necassary
with SPS2001 where we could see the changes we made to metadata immediately on the dashboard. And as Joerg also mentioned bad user experience - we create unnecessary versions as we have to check-in the document which creates an additional version.
Solution here would be: either to reflect the changed MetaData immediately without the need to check-in the document or to avoid the Web File Properties Dialog box while performing a Save As of a checked-out document. "

Cannot Edit Imported Objects in Preview Window

Greetings,
I am having a strange problem with Premiere CS5. In the picture below I have a video on the video1 layer and a static .png picture of a badge on the "Badge" layer. I want to move the badge from the right side of the screen to the left side of the screen.
No matter what I try, I cannot click or edit that badge in the preview window above the sequence window. I have double clicked, single clicked, right clicked. Two experienced video editors have also looked at it and they cannot seem to figure it out either.
This is a new installation of CS5, so we are thinking it is some kind of strange setting we are not aware of. Also it's not exclusive to this project or file type. We have tried .gif files, .avi files, etc. We have opened new projects and tried importing a video or static object there and you cannot edit the placement of it. Any help or suggestions is greatly appreciated.

Select the PNG in the time line by clicking on it, go to the effects control panel and use motion/position to place it in the location you want..

Bridge - "The file cannot store XMP metadata. No changes will occur"

I am trying to use keywords to organize all my projects. But on every file I try to apply a keyword too I get the message "The file cannot store XMP metadata. No changes will occur". I'm on windows 7 64bit with Creative Cloud and all the latest updates.

Not sure what kind of files you are trying to add keywords, but I am having the same problem with .MTS and m2ts files. I am running Bridge 4.0.0.529 and Win 8.1. I found a work around, which was to change the extension to .mpg in File Manager, then you can add keywords. However, not sure of the implications of doing this when I import them into Premiere. I noticed in File Manager that under file properties that the "Type of File" changes to reflect the file extension. Running some tests to try and find out. I suppose one could change the extensions back to the original. But if you have a lot of clips, that is a big hassle. Unfortunately, Bridge "Batch Rename" doesn't allow one to change the extension. Any help would be appreciated. However, I am not very optimistic in that it appears the "Cloud" version of Bridge has the same issues.
