Cannot find DC containing IConnectorGatewayService
We are on Netweaver 2004s SP13
I am working with NWDI building DCs and one of the main issues I keep coming across is trying to find the Used DC that contains the libraries I previously use in pre-nwdi code (i.e. I just added the jars to my project and often these were jars from EP5 or EP6).
I need to use two classes to connect to a backend Oracle system (JCA approach)
IConnection
IConnectorGatewayService
Using a Class locator utility I was able to find the DC that contained "IConnection" (tc/conn/connectorframework in the SAP-JTECHS SC).
For the life of me, I cannot find "IConnectorGatewayService" in any Used DC.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Hi,
Take a look at my blog: <a href="https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/weblogs?blog=/pub/wlg/4182">The Story About How 2 Eclipse Plugins helped me to make a lot of points on SDN forum</a>
Try to use "JAR Class Finder" eclipse plugin.
Specify directory where your DC`s are.
For example:
C:\Documents and Settings\<USER_NAME>\.dtc\0\DCs\sap.com\ in case of using NWDI (Dont forget to sync before!)
or
C:\Program Files\SAP\IDE\IDE70\eclipse\plugins\com.sap.tc.ap_2.0.0\comp in case of locale development.
Search for "com.sapportals.portal.navigation.NavigationNodes" in local DC`s and DC`s from NWDI doesn`t return anything.
I would recommned following approach:
1) creat library DC
2) copy jar to comp\libraries folder from (C:\usr\sap\J2E\JC00\j2ee\cluster\server0\apps\sap.com\irj\servletjsp\irj\root\WEB-INF\portal\portalapps\com.sap.portal.navigation.api_service\lib\com.sap.portal.navigation.api_service_api.jar)
3) create public part
4) add jar to public part
Now you can use functionality from jar.

I am exporting .indd files from within Indesign as pdf files, opening in Acrobat Pro XI. I have no trouble creating the initial pdf file, however, when I go to Save Other > Reduced Size PDF I get error messages. Depending on the file, I receive either the message, "The font (Myriad Pro) contains bad/Widths" replacing the text with dots or "Cannot find or create the font (Helvetica) Some characters may not print or display properly" replacing text with dots or boxes.
My confusion is that the file is exporting to pdf from Indesign without error, it is only when I try to Save Other> Reduce Size PDF that the error occurs.
Also, it is only occurring on five out of 120 pages. These same fonts are on other pages and I have no trouble at all with exporting or Reduce Size PDF.
More frustrating is that I have never had this problem occur in all my previous versions of Acrobat using the same process and typefaces.
I am reaching deadline on this and cannot find a solution other than to reload Acrobat 9 and ditch this upgrade.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.I, too have experienced this issue. Upon export from INDD CS6, I see the error message "The font 'IXWIPX+SourceHanSansSC-Bold' contains bad \Widths."
The only items on the single-page InDesign document I'm trying to export are copies of a one-page PDF (which was extracted from a longer PDF, arranged into a cover format). I can provide all files as necessary. The longer document that the one page came from also experienced an error when I tried to print to Adobe PDF. While I still get a PDF of the cover on export, despite the "bad \widths" message, it won't print from certain machines. I get nothing (not even an empty shell file) from the attempt to print the larger document (where the cover elements came from) to PDF.
I can deal with these issues with a few unorthodox workarounds, but wanted to offer comments or volunteer to help test fixes if possible.
For the record, I'm really not enjoying Acrobat XI. It doesn't seem to have much by way of new features (at least not that I use), and some of those I used most in version X are gone or less functional. Common fonts like Times New Roman are often not found (even though they are definitely on my system); I have a much harder time editing text through the new interface, and I have a few other small gripes—some that I don't have time to get into, others that wouldn't really matter, except that they weren't a problem until I "upgraded." Just sayin'.
Thanks for listening. -
Using Gmail in iPhoto and cannot find any of my groups to email. I have at least seven or eight groups that I email, each containing over 50 addresses. Is there a way to locate my email groups using iPhoto to send out mail in Gmail? Using version 9.5.1 (902.17) OS is Mavericks 10.9.1.
Your question and description is not very clear to me, so hopefully something here will help:
1. Gmail is a service not an app or a place. So you need to access the service with an app - that can be iPhoto, Mail, Outlook or any other mail client, or even a Web Browser like Safari or Firefox.
So you can't "go to GMail" as you write, but instead you go to an application set up to use the GMail service.
2. iPhoto is not a mail client. It's a handy way to email pics to Grandma, but for what you're doing you need to use an app that supports all of the Gmail service. iPhoto doesn't. There is no way around that.
3. How to send to groups will vary depending on what app you use to access the GMail service. All of these apps can receive photos from iPhoto, either - as in the case of Mail and Outlook, via the Share function - or, in the case of all the rest - via a Media Browser.
For help sending to Groups using any of these other apps you need to ask omn their respective forums. But the workflow is quite simple:
Using Mail or Outlook set in the iPhoto Prefereneces:
1. Select the pic(s) you want to share.
2. Choose email from the Share function
3. Make your selections re size etc
4. The email opens up in Mail or Outlook
- from there you need to figure out how to use the email client.
Using any other app:
1. In the mail app create a new email
2. Click on the Attach button or link
3. Use the Media browser to select the pic(s) you want to send
4. Attach them
- from there you need to figure out how to use the email client.
For help accessing your photos in iPhoto see this user tip:

I cannot uninstall or install itunes. error is 'trying to use on a network resource that is unavailable'. I cannot find path to any folders containing installation package itunes.msi. Unable to download itunes since 2 updates ago and crashed computer. Windows update as suggested in some posts does not assist either.
Can anyone assist me? Thank you so muchShould the advice above not fix things for you...
For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
The further information area has direct links to the current and recent builds in case you have problems downloading, need to revert to an older version or want to try the iTunes for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) release as a workaround for installation or performance issues, or compatibility with QuickTime or third party software.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there are also links to backup and recovery advice should it be needed.

Invoke-QuickStart : Cannot find container specified
Hi Folks,
I am almost done setting up my FIM password reset tool, but I am stuck on almost final step,which is "QuickStart tool" synch with AD. PS command that I use looks like this:
Invoke-QuickStart –Container “OU=test,OU=City,OU=Users,OU=Workstations,OU=branch Office,DC=Domain,DC=Net” –DatabaseName FIMpassword –DatabaseServer Server2 –ForefrontIdentityManagerServiceBaseAddress http://localhost:5725 -Forest Forest.Net –ActiveDirectoryManagementAgentCredential Domain\SA_USR –ForefrontIdentityManagerManagementAgentCredential Domain\SA_FIM_USR –RunInitialLoad $true –verbose
And I get following error:

Please verify if you have: "OU=ARJS test,OU=Kaunas,OU=Users,OU=Workstations,OU=branch Office,DC=Domain,DC=Net" Please remember that it would be something like: Domain.Net ->Branch Office -->Workstations
--->Users ... so you have specified that "ARJS test" is inside OU Kaunas, which is inside OU=Users, which is inside Workstations etc. Make sure all of them are OUs and not CNs (Org Units not Containters) If you wanted to specify more than one OU/CN at once
- it is not possible using script. You have to specify only one container/OU now and later change it inside agent.

ITunes cannot find the folder containing the installation package itunes64.msi.
When I try and update iTunes to the newest version it says that it cannot find the itunes64.msi. How to i fix this? I have a Dell Inspiron if that makes a difference.
Unfortunately, this sort of trouble has gotten more complicated to deal with ever since Microsoft pulled the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from their Download Center on June 25. First we have to find a copy of the utility.
Let's try Googling. (Best not to use Bing, I think.) Look for a working download site for at least version 3.0 of the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. After downloading the utility installer file (msicuu2.exe), scan the file for malware, just in case. (I use the free version of Malwarebytes AntiMalware to do single-file scans for that.)
If the file is clean, to install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you've downloaded.
Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove".
Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try installing iTunes again. Does the install go through properly now?
(If you do find a clean download site for the correct version of CleanUp, please don't tell me where it is. Without wishing to sound paranoid (although I grant it does sound paranoid), there is a non-zero chance that posting links to download locations for the utility here at Discussions leads to that download location being shut down.) -

CA Forum: Crystal Reports
Hi,
I am currently developing an ASP.NET website using Visual Studio.NET 2005. I am using the .NET 2.0 framework, VB.NET as my programming language and I connect successfully to a SQL Server 2005 database. I can select, insert, update and delete data from the database elsewhere in my project, so I know basic connectivity isn't an issue. The problem seems to be with Crystal Reports.
I created a folder called 'Reports' in my project and added a Crystal Report file (OpenFiles.rpt) to it. I designed the report and initally used a hard-coded SQL query as its datasource so I could quickly get the database fields onto the report and preview them. All worked fine.
To make the report accessible to the rest of the website, I created an .xsd dataset file containing the three tables (and their corresponding tableadapters) that the report requires and then redeveloped the report using the dataset as the datasource for the report. After doing this, the preview no longer worked.
Next, I added a page to the website and dragged a Crystal Report Viewer Control onto it. In the code behind the page I wrote:
Option Strict On
Imports System.Data
Imports CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine
Imports CrystalDecisions.Shared
Partial Class Reports
Inherits System.Web.UI.Page
Private objOpenFilesreport As OpenFilesReport
Private rptOpenFiles As ReportDocument

Dim reportPath As String = Server.MapPath("OpenFiles.rpt")
Dim rptopenfiles As New ReportDocument
rptOpenFiles.Load(reportPath) <== I checked this during execution and the value correctly points to the OpenFiles.rpt file in the Reports folder of my project
Dim ConnectionInfo As ConnectionInfo = New ConnectionInfo()
ConnectionInfo.DatabaseName = my database
ConnectionInfo.UserID = login id of user
ConnectionInfo.Password = user's password
SetDBLogonForReport(ConnectionInfo, rptopenfiles)
CrystalReportViewer1.ReportSource = rptopenfiles
End Sub

End Sub
Private Sub SetDBLogonForReport(ByVal ConnectionInfo As ConnectionInfo, ByVal myReportDocument As ReportDocument)
Dim myTables As Tables = myReportDocument.Database.Tables
For Each myTable As CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.Table In myTables
Dim myTableLogonInfo As TableLogOnInfo = myTable.LogOnInfo
myTableLogonInfo.ConnectionInfo = ConnectionInfo
myTable.ApplyLogOnInfo(myTableLogonInfo)
Next
End Sub
End Class
I added a hyperlink to one of the existing pages on the website to navigate to this page with the report viewer on it. When I run the website in Visual Studio and click on the hyperlink I get the following:

Any ideas, anyone?
Also, assuming I can get past this error, I will need to figure out how to fill the tables in the .xsd dataset file. I have written a class for the dataset that includes functions that populate the tables in the dataset from the database by executing SQL queries. But how do I call these functions at the time the report is run?
This is my first Crystal report written in .NET and I've been struggling with it for days now. Any help would be most appreciated!
Thanks very much!
Chris Severinhello, the error message is obviously coming from one of the installed mcafee extensions. please directly contact mcafee technical support - they can likely give you more detailed guidance and are the only ones who can fix bugs or make necessary adjustments in the addon.

please help me out of this trouble. -
First, the reason for my compounded frustration:
I wrote a lengthy, comprehensive post on this late last night. I submitted it and received a notice at this URL:
https://discussions.apple.com/___sbsstatic___/maintenance.html?start=0&tstart=0
It gave a message: "A yellow sticky bearaing the words, "We'll be back soon." and a typed message reading, "We are busy updating Apple Support Communities for you and will be back shortly." Needless to say, it never came back. This morning as I began trying to reconstruct the very detailed post I wrote last night, the Communities system offered me an opportunity to restore the post from last night. Sadly, it contained only a portion of the first line.
I'm going to try it again. The problem inherent in putting it all in words last night, is that I no longer remember the exact wording of the error messages.
I've never gotten this Airport Express (1st gen, purchased mid 2010) to work. I thought it was working, but working poorly. A green light on the device is, apparently, NOT an indication of connection to the wireless. It wasn't workingl.
Description of devices which use the network:
I have a Broadband network with a modem.
It is connecteed to my 2T Timecapsule (purchased mid 2010).
Connected to that is a 24 port Cisco Router.
Not connecting to that, though showing a solid green light, is my Airport Express (1st Generation, purchased mid 2010)
Connected to the router are many ethernet cables giving hard-wired access to:
Printers (HP 8600 Pro purchased 2012))
MacBook Pro (purchased mid 2010) and
IMAC (purchased mid 2010).
3 Apple TV devices (1st generation purchased early 2011)
1 Apple TV device (2nd generataion purchased August 2012)
Connecting to the Wireless Network are IOS devices (current IOS versions on all)
iPad 2nd generation (purchased the day it was available)
iPad 3rd generation (purchased the day it was available)
iPod (mid 2010)
iPhones (4S)
Description of Layout of Network/House
My home is approximately 70 feet by 25 feet.
All Networking hardware is at one end of the house, the south side.
Airport Express (1st Gen, 2010) has been placed in the middle of the house to boost the wireless access at the north end of the house.
Ethernet cables are installed under flooring with cable ends extending up through flooring, and are availble to all devices with Ethernet ports..
Description of Problem
Investigation of the wireless access dysfunction with the iPad (2nd generation, mid 2010) revealed no connection to the Wireless Network, in spite of glowing green light on Airport Express and Airport Utility screen.
Description of actions taken to correct the problem
Loaded Airport Utility on MacBook Pro.
Airport Express shows green light on screen.
Double clicked on Airport Express Icon
Message that Airport Express was unable to extend the network
Message changes suddenly to something about not finding the Airport Express
Airport Utility searches Airport Express, attempting to read its settings
Message appears: Device not found. Airiport Express was previously part of the network, and offers to let me "forget" the base station.
I exit the error message.
A yellow triangle bearing an exclamation point sits to the left of the Airport Express' Description
Airport Express shows green light (as always)
Clicking the link, "Other AirPort Base Stations" indicates no base stations can be found.
Moved Airport Express to the room at the south end of the house containing all network devices
Plugged it in with clear, completely unobstructed view of Time Capsule.
Light on Airport Express flashes yellow and then turns solid green (like always)
Bring Mac into the room at the south end of the house containing all network devices and the Airport Express with the green light
Close Airport Utility on Mac
Reboot Mac
Open Airport Utility on Mac
Airport Express still shows as it did in 1.1.7. above.
Attempts to check Airport Express' access to Wireless network:
Unplugged Airport Express HEY! THE GREEN LIGHT WENT OUT!!! ;0)
Disconnected all Ethernet cables.
Tested ALL devices for Wireless access.
All devices access the Wireless network extremely well (dot and three curved bars) EXCEPT
IOS Devices tested at the north end of the house. These devices show a blank where the wireless bars should be, and intermittently show a dot.
Followed instructions contained in a similar discussion about Airport Express not functioning:
Unplugged all Networking Hardware
Powered off all Equipment which access the Internet in any possible way.
Powered up all Networking Hardware, one at a time, in the order described in that discussion.
Powered up all Equipment which access the internet, one at a time.
Tested ethernet cablingAll equipment functioning.
Tested Wireless access:
Removed all ethernet cabling
All devices, including IOS devices, access the Wireless Network perfectly EXCEPT any placed in the north end of the house. Those perform exactly as they did in step 3.3.2.
Connected all ethernet cabling.
Plugged Airport Express into socket in the Network Hardware room at the south end of the house. I get exactlyt the same results as before. The lovely green light glows on the Airport Express. Airport Utility reports Airport Express cannot find the Wireless network and also says there are no base stations connected to the internet.
Still in Network Hardware room, I attempt to find other base stations by cabling the Airport Express to the MacBook Pro
Airport Utility shows Airport Express with a green light
I double click the Airport Express Icon
Box says connection is average and status is (green light) Extended Network.
I click Edit
I go through each tab. I note that in the Wireless tab, the Network Mode is as I had set it, "Extend a wireless network".
Under the Network tab I note that "Enable Access Control" is as it should be, NOT selected.
Under the AirPlay tab, I note that "Enable airPlay" is selected.
I click cancel and leave the Edit screens.
Curious to know if Airport Express can find the Wireless network now that the device claims to be functioning as an extended wireless network, I disconnect the ethernet cable from the Airport Express.
I watch the Airport Utility screen closely. Nothing is happening.
With bated breath, I double click on the Airport Express icon.
The popup box shows "extended wireless network"
I click on edit and we start the whole mess over again. (See 1.1-9. above)
Curious to know if cabling the Airport Express to the iMac (almost to middle of house) will offer hope and prosperity to IOS devices at north end, I unplug the Airport Express and carry its now-exhausted little body to the iMac, ethernet cable in hand.
As I unplug the iMac from its ethernet access, I'm informed by Cranky Boy that no way is he going to accept that as a reasonable solution to his problem. He will not live wireless while even one ethernet cable is poking up through a floorboard.
Cranky Boy is reassured when informed that, though the Airport Utility shows the Airport Express connected, merely double clicking on the icon produces the same result as laboriously described in 1.1-9. above.
After quieting Cranky Boy by reconnecting the iMac to the Ethernet, I return the Airport Express to the Network Hardware room.
Again, curious to know ... I reconnect the Airport Express to the MacBook Pro. I want to know if it will exrtend the Wireless network from its position one foot from the Wireless Network.
I close and reopen Airport Utility (as I always do, but forgot to write)
I click on the Airport Express icon (which bears a little green light like the other big boys).
BUT THIS TIME, when I click on the Airport Express icon, the pop-up box says my connection is Excellent, the green light status shows, "Extended Network" and clicking on "Extended Network" produces the same old `Airport Express was unable to extend the Wireless Connection.
I click on the Edit option.
I buzz through all the tabs. I cancel instead of update, leaving everything as it was (as I did the first time)
I decide to go back into edit and select "Internet Options" under the "Internet" tab.
Since I have no idea whatsoever as to what IPV6 is and what it governs, I decide to configure IPV6 to Automatically Connect and then, with a whole new set of opportunities, I leave IPV6 Mode set to "Tunnel" and then I learn that I will get to see what happens when "Enable IPV6 Connection Sharing" is enabled.
I check the other tabs to see if anything has changed in their menus
Jesus Saves and so did I.
Apple updates and so did I.
I am warned that my device and its network services will be temporarily unavailable if I continue.
It seems unaware that I am laughing uncontrollably at the suggestion that my device and its services will be TEMPORARILY AVAILABLE. What? An improvement in performance is warned?
Life continues and so do I.
I breathe deeply to decrease my adrenaline.
Airport Utility flashes a red warning next to the Airport Express Icon and then quickly rethinks the matter and decides to show it as connected.
I click on the Airport Express Icon. This time my connection is only "good".
I click on Extended Network. With a new-found consistency it informs me that my device is unable to extend the Wireless network and it chats with me about using the same Wireless password for my device that is used for the Wireless network access. I did. It is.
I change my settings back to the way they once were, I save like Jesus and Update like Apple
I decide to go back into Edit and modify the settings under the Wireless tab, changing from "Extend Wireless Network" to "Join Wireless Network".
I save.
I click on the Airport Express Icon. My connection has degraded further to "Average"
I click on edit just to see what will happen, but no further information is forthcoming. Settings are as I left them.
I wonder if the Airport Express would extend itself now that it has joined the Wireless Network.
I click the Airport Express Icon.
I click Edit
I change the Network Mode from "Join a Wireless Network" to Extend a Wireless Network. Unfortunately, there was no option for "don't forget where the Wireless Network is!"
I am still "unable to extend the Wireless network"
I disconnect the Airport Express from my MacBook Pro.
After closing and opening Airport Utility, I sit and stare at the Airport Express Icon.
It has no light or error messages
It has a yellow triangle with exclamation point
It has no light or error message
It has a yellow triangle with exclamation point
I finally decide to see what THIS error messages says. It says Device Not Found. Patti Harada's AirPort Express was previously part of your network. Check that it is still in range of your network and is plugged into a power outlet. Click Forget to remove this base station from this network."
I click "Forget". Airport Utility has forgotten the Airport Express ever existed. It has also forgotten how to find it again.
I, however, am unable to forget how much I shelled out for this POS and fear I will never recover from working this intensely and tediously on documenting something so hideously inconsistent in its test results.
I wonder if I should recable the Airport Express to my MacBook Pro
I decide I've had about enough.
I document this ad nauseum in the hopes that someone can read it THOROUGHLY and offer me a solution to my problem. What is my problem? I am so busy fighting off Alligators that I forgot I only came in to drain the swamp! Ah, but I remember now: Cranky Boy can't watch Netflix on his iPad (2nd generation) in the north end of the house.
Any solution that works will do. I'll buy another piece of whatever kind of equipment you think best.Well, aren't you all that and a bag of chips!!!!
Oh what a relief! What a RELIEF!
That just cleaned up my life. And Cranky Boy is actually smiling!!!
Houston, we've got dots AND BARS!!!
P.S. All my firware and software are always current. If I spent as much time looking for a reset button as I spend checking for software updates, I mighta not needed to work at this!!!!
P.P.S. Airport Utility shows Cranky Boy's iPad as the Airport Express' Wireless Client!!! Who knew?
Thank you so much, m'Lord. I am in your debt. What would you have me do?

Safari cannot find the internet plug in
I have a new Intel iMac that initially had no problem surfing any web site. I now have a problem with any page that contains "shockwave". As and example when I try to got to www.autotoll.com.hk I get stopped by the following message...
++Safari cannot find the internet plug in++
++The page “Autotoll” has content of MIME type “application/x-shockwave-flash”, but you don’t have a plug-in installed for this MIME type. A plug-in should be available on this page:++
++http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer++
++Do you want to open the page?++
I have gone to macromedia numerous times and tried to download and install Flash Player 9. I still get the same message.
I have also tried using FIREFOX and get the same message.
How do I install Flash Player 9 properly??????
HELP!!!Re: FLASH 9 won't work with Safari 2.0.4 or Firefox (A FIX!!!)
Posted: Aug 24, 2007 4:44 AM in response to: threejay10
threejay10,
thanks for pointing me to the other discussion thread on
http://www.justin-cook.com/wp/2007/03/08/flash-9-doesnt-work-on-mac-os-x/
i am not that comfortable in Terminal so I opted for the one other option i could see that doesn't reliance on me typing a slew of sensitive characters into Terminal.
So, instead, I downloaded Pseudo from VersionTracker
http://versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/9608
installed it in my applications folder. then dragged the Flash 9 installer onto Pseudo. Flash then installed perfectly and all is working well.
It seems there is a simple fix after all. Apparently Pseudo installs into the root and therefore, I assume, bypasses the permissions issues. After 2 days of trying to solve this, I"m happy it's over. Thanks again for pointing me in the right direction. I hope others can find this thread and the solution.

I have recently had something really odd happen within iphoto. My photos from May-Oct 2013 appeared to be missing from my primary Iphoto library.
last night I was trying to find any additional Iphoto libraries on my Imac... I could not find them... but then somehow the May-Oct 2013 library showed up and now I cannot find the "current" primary Iphoto library. I sought help from apple care today but no solutoin from them after 2 hours trying. I have timemachine that backs up my Imac each day to an external hard drive. When I open Iphoto while holding down the "option" key - it lets me choose which Iphoto library... but only (1) library comes up... I can't figure out what happened - but it seems that I must have more than one Iphoto library because yesterday I was able to see all my photos except the "gap in dates" from May-Oct 2013. Today - I can only open a Library called Iphoto2014... and it contains the photos from the gap in dates. I can't "see" any other options to open photos... but just yesterday there appeared to be a different library available.
Any advice or steps i should take to locate my missing photos - would be soooooo much appreciated.I have recently had something really odd happen within iphoto. My photos from May-Oct 2013 appeared to be missing from my primary Iphoto library.

I follwed all the instructions on manuals for both iPAD and iTunes re syncing, but after physically connecting iPAD with iMac with USB or via WiFi I still cannot find "phone button" under Device name on iTunes page. Please help! Thanks!
I have been creating a photo book using a lots of photographs on iPhoto, and then I took another photos by using new iPAD which I want to integrate with the original album/book on iMac. I was able to import them from iPAD's iPhoto to iMac's iPhoto. However I cannot import or transfer or sync anything from iMac's iPhoto to that of my iPAD.
So my iPhoto page on iPAD contains only 3 or 4 newly created albums, and no other info. That means no syncing....
I am supposed to be able to work on this project on either of these iPAD and iMac, correct?
I am puzzled. I appreciate for your advice and help.
Thank you!It doesn't appear under the iPad device on the left-hand sidebar of iTunes, you need to select the iPad device on the sidebar and then select the Photos tab on the right-hand side of iTunes e.g.
And then on the right-hand side : -
Lightroom 5 for Mac. Joined CC to install filters but cannot find them or failed to appear.
I have just installed Lightroom 5 to enhance my photographic work and decided to check Adobe for any free presets. Having registered with Cloud to enable download I cannot find either a Zip or link to add it to my application.
Adobes guide to install it reveals nothing installed! :
Where to find it
Make sure you have Adobe's Creative Cloud desktop App (free) installed, log in and sync before clicking the download button. If you experience problems acquiring the product please reboot your computer then re-check your Downloads folder. You can contact me at [email protected] After installation, the ZIP file (PortraitMatteBWStrongbyalwiDesignLR4LR5.zip) containing the LR preset will be available from your computer's Downloads folder. 1. Open Lightroom and click Lightroom then Preferences on a Mac. On a PC, open Lightroom and click on Edit at the top.
2. Go to Preferences and click it
3. The window that pulls up will show 6 different tabs. Click on Presets and open the box called Show Lightroom Presets Folder...
4. A new window pulls up. Double click on Lightroom then double click on Develop Preset(s)
5. Copy the content of the unzipped files you just downloaded into the folder Develop Presets. That’s it. Restart Lightroom and the Presets are availableSo a few things:
The "lrcat" folder I specified is really whatever folder you named it when you first set the catalog file location. Whatever you named it, make sure "Wheel" also has read-write permissions, and "Apply to enclosed items".
Check, double check, and triple check that the .plist files in /Library/Preferences continue to exist. Every time this failed on me, I found them to be missing from the global preferences folder. I'm not sure if I was copying them with insufficient permissions, or Gatekeeper blocked it, or something in the OS cleaned them up, but once I was SURE they were sticking around even through a reboot; it seemed to good to go.
Don't "replace" copy the /Library/Application Support/Adobe/Lightroom folder, just delete it first so there's no folder merging going on - then move the one from the User's Library over.
This should always be the last step: Run LR once more when you're satisfied and make sure the key wasn't lost in the shuffle. Just re-enter the key if needed, no need to copy all the files again.
Any other insights, updates, or failures are welcome. Hopefully the next version fixes this as it sounds like is being promised.
Follow Up: Success! I was able to capture a composer package that does suppress all the start screens for all users, including new ones after the installation.
