Cannot make a selection in Motion

I am unable to select objects with the select tool in Motion 3. If I try to select the contents of a layer, motion jumps to the group layer. There are no select handles visible when I select.
Does anyone have any idea what could be wrong?

It can be difficult to select items in the canvas. Either select layers in the layers pane, or else hit X on the keyboard which will separate all your layers and allow you to precisely select which layer you want.

I cannot make a simple purchase of a $.99 of Beethoven's 9 symphony 4th Movement. When I click on the orchestra, a pop-up states "connecting - loading" and nothing happens. When I click on "View iTunes" for this selection, nothing happens.

AlexCarey, I've been having issues purchasing recently and place a number of calls to the support team. On Oct. 5th, and on my own decision, I went into my itunes profile and re-entered my credit card expiration date and security code. (Notice, it is not displayed for safety measures.) Today, I received an email from Apple support verifying if I made changes made to my account. For the heck of it, I logged back into itunes; click "Buy". It's working again after three days of failure. However, diagnosis still displays "Secure link to itunes store failed". Very confusing state of affairs, lately. See my post on "Itunes dilemma"

In iTunes under my device, under the apps tab, Why are all the options shaded out? I cannot make any changes, select any apps or do anything with the apps. I was able to load a few apps and sync but cannot sync anymore to my phone.

Hi,
( I search for iChat questions when I have finished in the iChat Forum)
So the menu bar reads iChat, File, Edit, View, Buddies, Video, Window and Help
There is no Buddy List open.
There is no other window for iChat open.
In the iChat Menu you only have access to Status.
Is an item ticked in the list ?
Is this a green (Available item) or Red ( an Away one) ?
Can you access the Accounts option ? (Sitll in the iChat Menu)
Is anything in here ticked ?
In the Window menu any Logged in account should appear in the list (Between the Next Chat and File Transfer items)
It would be useful to know which version of iChat this is.
If no account is ticked (iChat Menu > Accounts) or not showing in the Window Menu, plus you cannot determine the Status and you cannot access the Preferences then you need to access your Home Folder/Library/Preferences
As the Library in the Home Holder is Invisible in Lion you will need the Finder's Go Menu > Go to Folder option (you can use it in earlier OS versions if you want)
Type in:-
~/Library/Preferences
Find the file called com.apple.ichat.plist
Drag it to the Trash and Restart iChat.
This will lose all the settings in iChat that you have changed from Defaults but there is no way around this.

Things I cannot make work in FCPX - Hoping somebody can tell me I just missed it

Ok reading this after typing I think this is mostly a feature wishlist for the next version - outside of things already discussed like XML export.
1. Importing footage that is on a different disk duplicates the original media. I have the same problem if I have an event on the same disk then I move it to another - the 'Original Media' folder merrily starts replacing the 4kb alias files with the original media. I think this is a bug since there is a checkbox that is supposed to prevent this.
2. There is no option to not duplicate media when importing from camera which is required to import AVCHD footage. I think the lack of option counts as a design bug esp. since FCP7 could do this just fine.
3. There is no scrubber bar under the viewer - it is ergonomically annoying to have to move the mouse over on the left in the event library. Skimming over this bar would also be a lot easier and more useful if combined with a scroll wheel option to get some precision in the selection - the current skim thing is only good for finding a clip if you have a mess and for a very rough cut unless you have some kind of super stable hands.
4. I can no longer move frames for footage under the viewer using the mouse wheel (surface on the Magic Mouse). Please bring this back
5. Skimming is ok, if setting context was clearer - e.g. I think it works really well in the project view where you have to click on the project to select it before skimming starts. Can we have that option for all other places too? My S key is going to wear out.
6. On the same note, skimming sometimes fails to turn back on - the icon highlights but no skimming. I have only noticed this problem in the timeline.
7. Some way to bring in created (as opposed to recorded) footage is desperately needed - even if it is not full integration with the timeline (aka Send to Motion) at least let me bring footage back in without having to reimport it as though it was a completely new clip. There may be cases where that is useful and somebody might want to use auditioning for it, but for other cases where you have to redo all your editing, find all the places you have used it and hope you didn't miss any is really painful.
8. Speaking of integration - at least integrate to Motion. Let me rotoscope a project onto a bus passing by that is used in another project without having to pretend I can do it all with zero iteration somehow exporting from one app and importing to the other... just one time with perfect final cut results.
9. How do I sample noise? I have a lot of cases where a segment of footage has say a car going by - in the past I used SoundTrack to handle this - you 'set noise print' then apply noise reduction - is there a way to do this with an audio filter I have not found yet? The basic noise reduction stuff does not seem too useful to be honest - maybe if my footage had wind noise - but it doesn't. It has a stupid car in the middle of a wedding.
10. (deaming) Some way for Motion to see footage organized in events... put another way, why are events inside FCPx - they should be a shared media function - once I have organized footage, any application I have that wants to use it should be able to - not just 'Share | Media Browser' for project output. There may be cases where I have organized footage I want to use in Motion and where I want to output the result of motion as another clip in an event (modifiable please). Seems like events are underperforming their potential. Basically how can I send a subclip - sorry - keyword identified range selection - to Motion without making a project putting just that clip in it and then exporting (sorry, sharing) it as a quicktime movie? Luckily for me I don't have to worry about pro-res being a proxy format - I would feel sorry for somebody trying to do this with 4k footage.
11. Many people seem to have an issue with the term Event - can we have a preference to rename it? Say Media Library and Shelf or something more abstract (since Bin is too old-school) so it does not imply more meaning than it has. I have to include some low-priority requests so the good ones will make it right?
12. Projects are way too big. It will be hard to archive them etc. without messing about with their internals and I'm never quite sure that is safe. An option when copying them or moving them to strip out render files would be nice as would an option to clean them up - they should not really contain things other than my work - my edit decisions - temp file junk should live elsewhere or at least be an easy and supported way to eradicate when I'm done working with something.
13. I'm using disk images to manage unmounting events and projects without having to purchase a dozen different locally attached storage devices. This is a hack to workaround for an inability to manage some kind of workspace for events and projects - personal stuff vs. paid stuff at the very least - some formal support for this would be better. Never sure if I should trust image files for this or if there is some deep gotcha to using any of this stuff over a network that I'm going to get hosed by since there is no explanation of *why* network volumes are evil to FCPx.
14. Ok, so FCPx is missing too many features to import old files - can you at least make an import for some things? The media handling side - the bin organization from an old FCP project? Maybe some basic importing - if I have to redo old work 99% of things do not involve any more than a basic transition - the rest is all clips and laying them out properly. Ok and simple compositing would be nice too. I have not found anything I cannot do in a magnetic timeline that I could do with tracks - fine the import will have cap clips and non-linked clips etc. but as long as it plays the same that is an ok starting point.
Ok its the weekend. Time to go back to the family and stop dreaming.
btw I tried going back to FCS7 and Premiere - they are both more capable, but both feel quick clunky after using FCPx - I find myself getting annoyed easily. The scopes and rendering in FCPx is really fantastic and the organization features are way better than subclips (physical storage issues aside). But it has taken a while for me to get to this conclusion; I kept stopping and muttering 'that's it - I want my money back'. But now I hate life since I have no editor I'm happy with now - thanks - you gave me something I get annoyed with, but have made what I used to use equally irritating but for different reasons. Yes yes I know Apple does not read these forums, this is just a personal monologue and no I'm not trying to inflame somebody who's ability to feed his children has been seriously messed with - I really feel for those that depend on editing for a living using FCP7 - I'm just a moonlighter - so please don't respond with vitriol since I sure don't want to end up trying to defend or promote FCPx.

Which ones would those be? Developers or Apple engineers? I know they peruse LAFCPUG, not here.
Regardless. USE FRAKIN FEEDBACK.
That's the only way it's going to help us all, if everyone makes the effort to use it, otherwise you're just blovinating, and there's enough of that on these forums.

I upgraded from Dreamweaver CS4 to CS6. but now "an TFP error occured - cannot make connection to host". I spent hours with the host technician and we cant find the error. I reinstalled DW4 and it connects to host perfectly. Anyone else seen this problem?

I upgraded from Dreamweaver CS4 to CS6. but now when I want to upload I get "an TFP error occured - cannot make connection to host". I spent hours with the host technician and we cant find the error. I reinstalled DW4 and it connects to host perfectly. Anyone else seen this problem?
Mac OS 10.8.5
None of these issues are causing the error in DW CS6. We have double checked all of them and we have everything exactly right. Also I have exactly the same SiteSetup in DW CS4 and that works perfectly well. Could there must be factor in 6 that didn't exist in 4? Something that isnt in the SiteSetup but in some hidden dialog box ?
I can also upload to my host using Fetch, a third party FTP. And as I said DW CS4 works fine. So the problem is not with my host, its with DW CS6 in particular.

Thank you Jon, that fixed it perfectly. You have saved me from going crazy. The only difference I see now is in "Server Name" it changed what I had entered (my ftp address) to "Remote Server"; which seems odd -- but it works! Although I know there maybe also some other dialog box I have never seen
Of course I saw that menu item "Import" and but I thought thats obviously not for me: "Why would I want to import an entire website?". I did not however see "Export the selected site" for thats only a tiny icon in the footer. However I would have thought the same: "Why would I want to export my entire website?".
An observation: I've seen this problem in a lot of Adobe software, the menu-names of items are obscure, non descriptive. What would be better would be for the menu names or popups to say "Export Site Setup settings" and "Import Site Setup settings"

Sharepoint 2010 - Cannot make field Required in Add New Item form.

I made a fleld Required by making the proper selection in List Settings > Editing the column. It now shows as required when I edit an existing record in the list, but is not required when adding a new item. Why does the setting not apply
to the Add New Item form? How can I make it apply/required?
btw, there are no content types associated with the list.

Hi ,
According to your description, my understanding is that you cannot make field required in the list new form.
For my test, I created a custom list , added a non-required field and added some records. Then I made the field required. But it worked fine as expected both in existing records and in Add New Item
form.
Do you have some customization in your list new form?
You can go to your list -> Customize Form under list tab, then the new form will be opened in the InfoPath. In the InfoPath, right click the field and select Text Box Properties, make sure “Cannot
be blank” has been checked.

HT4528 My phone will not connect to a carrier (Verizon). It just says searching instead of showing bars. Cannot make or recieve calls or texts.

My phone just started doing this, it just says searching instead of showing bars. Cannot make or recieve calls or texts.
I have reset the network settings and the phone itself. I have called the *228 and it said it reprogramed my phone. walked away from my phone and it found service again for like 2 minutes and then went back to searching. This is pathetic, I basically have a touch now. I have hear several people have had this problem and it seems even after the phone is replaced they still have the problem. I can't belive you can spend this much on a phone to have it not work. Any resolve to this problem coming?

I have first a question. When it states to activate a phone press 1, did you do it? If not try it.
The second thing I would recommend is to simply change the phone number either online through my Verizon web portal or call customer service and have them change your number.
Then wait about 20 minutes and see if the problem has gone away.
Since the micro Sim is only good for overseas unlocked use; I believe a *228 send and select option 1 will set up your device on the Verizon network. You may just try doing that without changing your phone . Hey give it a try what can it hurt?
Good Luck

Cannot Make changes directly to table's field data

I need to make changes to table e.g ekko but when I enter table, the change option is in display mode and I cannot make direct changes to the table. I need to update some data in a field. I checked other tables as well, but all have change option as display.
Is there any settings required to get the table in change mode?

I dont understand what to do in point 1, how to generate view of table, can you make it little easier to follow. I tried database table i.e. ekko and when I click change it asks access key, which I dont have as I guess I have to get it from SAP..

SELECT-OPTIONS field unable to make any selections

Hi!
The field which has been declared as follows is unable to make any selections.
It seems like a field which is defined "only for output". Under Screens within the
elementlist is this attribute for this field is not activated as "only for output".
What else can the reason be for that ?
SELECT-OPTIONS: intst_pt FOR cjit07-intst_old.
Regards
Ilhan

Hi Ilhan,
Cjit07 is not a dictionary structure or table.
therfore you cannot assign the value cjit07-intst_old.
that statement is logically incorrect.
thats why it is not able to make any selections.
Reward points if helpful.

ITunes is extremely slow and I cannot make a secure connection

When I connect to iTunes my computer is extremely slow, and when I try to connect to the iTunes store I get the error message cannot make a secure connection. I have internet access and I have ran the iTunes diagnostics test and all the tests passed except making a secure connection. I have disabled all of my security systems including my firewall and Norton. I am not running any proxy settings. This has been an ongoing problem for over a month and I am at a loss.

Check out this Apple article -> iTunes: Advanced iTunes Store troubleshooting
Blocked by configuration: (Mac OS X/Windows)
Configure Internet Options (for Windows computers only):
Run iTunes Diagnostics. If the "Secure link to iTunes Store" section does not pass, do the following.
Open Internet Explorer.
From the Tools menu, choose Internet Options.
Click Connections.
Under "Dial-up and Virtual Private Networking," choose "Never dial a connection." It may not be possible to choose this if you’ve never used dial-up Internet; if this is the case, skip to the next step.
Click LAN Settings.
In the window that opens, enable the option to "Automatically detect settings" if it is not enabled.
iTunes uses Internet Options proxy settings. Apple recommends removing proxy settings that interfere with access to the iTunes Store if needed.
Click OK.
Click the Advanced tab.
Scroll down to the Security section and look for the option to "Check for server certificate revocation." If it is enabled, disable it.
Look for Use SSL 3.0 and Use TLS 1.0. Make sure at least one of those two checkboxes is selected and click OK (You can select both checkboxes).
Apply any changes, and restart your computer if you modified the option to "Check for server certificate revocation" (step #11).

Cannot make executable jar file for swt application

hi to all!!! i have started learning swt library and it seems nice to me, but i have one problem, i cannot run my application. The problem is that i cannot make executable jar for it.
i'm using ecilpse_3.1.2 and have pluggined the visual editor for swt! yesterday i found one topic where was described the process of making the swt executable jar, i followed the instructions in the topic, but didn't resolve my problem, so if anybody knows how to achieve this , please help!!!!!!
the instructions in the mentioned topic are :
1. Make sure the SWT jar file is included in the Eclipse project build path
a. Download the standalone SWT jar file from eclipse.org even if you already have the ones that come with Eclipse. It is called ?swt.jar? and you will package it with the executable JAR. Make sure it is the same version of SWT that you used to make your program.
b. In Eclipse, import swt.jar via Project Properties::Java Build Path::Libraries::Add External JARs. (Make sure to include the source .zip file). Also make sure to select the swt package in the ?Order and Export? tab.
c. At this point, you should be able to compile and run your SWT application in the Eclipse SDK.
2. Do a standard Eclipse jar file export
a. Right click on the main .java project file and select ?Export??.
b. Choose ?JAR File? from the list.
c. Select the relevant packages and .classpath and .project resource files
d. Make sure ?Export generated class files and resources? is selected and browse to the location where you want the JAR file to be created.
e. Specify ?Generate the manifest file? and don?t seal the JAR or any packages. Choose the class containing the main method as the ?Main class?.
3. Change the manifest file
a. Navigate to the JAR file you created and open it with WinZip.
b. Open the MANIFEST.MF file inside and copy the contents.
c. Create a new file called ?MANIFEST.MF? and paste in the contents of the old manifest file.
d. Add the line ?Class-Path: <swt jar file path>?. For simplicity, you can just keep a copy of the swt.jar file in the same folder as the executable jar, in which case, the line is ?Class-Path: swt.jar?. Make sure there is a carriage return after the last line in the manifest file, or that line will not be parsed.
4. Replace the manifest file
a. Make sure the manifest file and the executable jar are in the same folder.
b. Open the command prompt and navigate to the containing folder.
c. Enter the command ?jar umf MANIFEST.MF <executable jar name>? to update the manifest file with the class path information.
5. Package the JAR with SWT files
a. Put the updated executable JAR file, swt.jar, and the associate DLL in the same folder. The DLL can be pulled out of swt.jar and should have a name like ?swt-win32-####.dll? on Windows.
b. The JAR file should now successfully execute. On Windows, you can usually just double click the JAR file in explorer and it will open. If that does not work, the command ?java ?jar <executable jar name>? on the command line has the same effect.
but a few steps aren't exact for me , for example : first, which jar i have to include in build path : downloaded or from plugins folder, second
i have to incude source.zip too??? but it is only in downloaded zip file which includes both swt.jar and src.zip, and finally can anyone clarify next :
"5. Package the JAR with SWT files
a. Put the updated executable JAR file, swt.jar, and the associate DLL in the same folder. The DLL can be pulled out of swt.jar and should have a name like ?swt-win32-####.dll? on Windows."
what does this mean, put these in folder or make jar from them????

wolve634 wrote:

In a suitable forum, though. An Eclipse forum or an SWT forum or something related to where you got those instructions would make a lot more sense than asking here.
i have to incude source.zip too???No, of course you don't have to distribute the source code.

I recently installed CS4, and I can not make a connection to my website. Message an FTP error occurred and cannot make a connection to host. The remote host cannot be found.

I recently installed CS4, and I can not make a connection to my website. Message an FTP error occurred and cannot make a connection to host. The remote host cannot be found.

Open up your site definition (double-click on the site name in the File panel or choose Site > Manage Sites > Edit) and go to the Remote Info category. There, click Use Firewall (if it isn't already selected) - press Test to try the default firewall settings. If that doesn't work, click Firewall Settings. You'll see two relevant settings about 2/3 down - Firewall host and Firewall port. If Firewall port is 21, there probably is something blocking the port.
On Windows XP, you may have the Windows Firewall installed and blocking. Here's how you get to it:
To open Windows Firewall
1.
Click Start and then click Control Panel.
2.
In the control panel, click Windows Security Center.
3.
Click Windows Firewall.
Once you have that open, you'll need to set Dreamweaver as an exception to blocking:
On the Exceptions tab, click Add Program.
In the list of programs, click the name of the program (Dreamweaver) that you want to add, and then click OK. If the name of your program is not in the list of programs, click Browse to locate the Dreamweaver.exe in the Program Files folder and then click OK.
Hope this helps - Joe
