Collaboration and Sharing

Hello,
I recently purchased 2 licenses for Adobe Cloud and was wondering if it is possible to share the online storage space so we can access the same files?
Thanks!
Ian

Hi Ian,
This is not currently possible but is something we are hoping to have available with Creative Cloud Team once available later this year.

Collaboration and Sharing PDF's

Is there a way to "Share" a PDF so that if I am in a document making edits and a colleague is in the same document over our work network making edits, we can both do this at the same time with the document open simultaneously without losing our work, or having one of us having to close out (and thus losing our edits) so that the other can save?
Having one of us "Save as" a new document name should not be an option, as this problem has occurred everyday.

I understand this might seem to be the answer, however we all have access to PDF's over our network, so I shouldn't have to "Send" the shared review. I am looking for a way to make edits to a PDF simultaneously from different computers, and both be able to save updated work while the document is open on the other computer as well...is this possible?

Collaborating and commenting via the "Cloud"

We are looking for a cloud-based service to markup/comment on the proof of our monthly magazine. I thought Acrobat XI Pro might be a solution, but it doesn't seem to work that way. But maybe I'm not using it correctly and someone can tell me where I went wrong.
First, I had to download and install a copy of Acrobat XI Pro. We have about 8 members on our team - will everyone have to purchase and install the software?
Then I uploaded a file (about 30MB) to Adobe.com and opened it via Acrobat XI Pro. That went fine, as did the commenting using Acrobat's tools. But when I went to save the document (with comments) the save took a long time -- a good 8 minutes. I have a reasonably decent Internet connection.
I'm also wondering if the team members will be able to collaborate simultaneously, or if we will have to schedule separate times to comment on the document?

Did you save to the Creative Cloud or to Acrobat.com. You can also use a local server which might be faster. You re-saved the file over the internet rather submitting reviewer comments which would be much faster. If you use a shared review then people can comment simultaneously. I will let someone who uses the collaboration and reviewing features to answer other questions.

Collaborative code sharing (PS Scripting & GitHub)

Hi,
I’d like to invite you fellow developers - ExtendScript, Flex/HTML Panels, Generator - to read this Open Letter about the PS Devs Community’s health, prospects and a project proposal for collaborative code sharing through the GitHub opensource platform.
Actually the (humble) secret agenda is to help the community focus on better ways to collect and share its own accumulated knowledge, and possibly grow some extra influence towards Adobe: that we need, in my opinion.
Any comment, suggestion and feedback (on the original website, please) is *really* appreciated.
Thank you for your time!

“[Adobe] also like to hear about the user and customer impact for what you are trying to do with scripting.” Tom Ruark
I disagree. I want to believe it. But facts are not arguments for discussion. Facts are facts. So I want to make you a proposal.
Only words are not enough and we have not sufficient feed-back from Adobe about our inner projects that will help improve Adobe development.
I am formally inviting you (or any Adobe official 'dev' representative - not 'product manager') to come to visit us. All expenses paid.
If your inner corporate politics doesn't allow you to make direct contact with clients, think well and be aware that we have no intention on create any closed project. It must be a win-win to Adobe, to open community, so it would be also to us.
It would be like put together high-demand, big quantity content and the apps in a new open-minded way never seen before.
I think 2014 will be the year of the 'out-of-box' community thinkers but they need high demand contents. We daily produce them.
It would be the year when big companies have to put big ammount of photos and videos rapidly on web and before the others, using their own metadata to improve that system.
Its the year when finaly Canon, Adobe, and other hardware companies are forced to put on action interchage usefull and accessible content information...? Ops. OK. That could be next.

Our business model have only 3 days in touch with each physical fashion product to shoot it, film it, using live-model, edition, and send it back again to our partners store.
We do this over more then 1000 products a day, with 5 to 8 images in each product, using multiple studios and a team of more then 150 people. Stylists, live-models, costumer service, photographers, editors, marketing, account managers, proggrammers, fraud detection, etc, etc.
Our live-model system and our editors/retouchers scripts have increase productivity hugely. For photo retouching, more then 450% productivity increase in 2 years!!
That's why scripts represent much more then 'easy simple tasks for photographers' (answering to mightysprite above)
Is Adobe really interested in hearing user impact? This is my answer because I'm more into actions not words or just ideas.
It was not easy at all to make our CEO to agree. Its a deadline opportunity.
I'm willing to hear your terms and conditions.
By the way, we do represent more then 60 Adobe licenses, for the moment, and increasing.
By my concern, I promise to collaborate as much as can with any open-source code to the community. If I had more time I would do much more...
Many times wondered on having some of you scripter guys here, helping my efforts to make our central scripts system work even better.
I believe that the creation of healthy competion for Adobe apps might be the 'big positive' issue that Adobe need for itself.
If this will be not the case, that makes even more sense for our own scripters community to gather.

Collaboration On Shared Code File Slow

I heard about all of the hype of collaboration, and I had a Java project that my friend and I had been working on. We both set up Java Studio Enterprise 8 on Fedora Core 5 workstations, and one of us ran the collaboration server.
After signing in and beginning a shared code file, we noticed that the code line synchronization is extremely slow, with update times in lines of 5,000 - 10,000 milliseconds. Is this normal? Is there any way to configure the server such that changes made by one user are reflected quicker to the other users? Or is it just "Java slow" and there isn't anything that can be done? I personally was expecting something a bit more realtime (e.g. 50-250 msecs) than a few thousand milliseconds.

The following are known performance issues that may be of relevant to your situation:
http://collab.netbeans.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=62291
http://collab.netbeans.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=69392
You can try using later versions of the IDE:
NetBeans 5.0: http://www.netbeans.org/downloads/index.html (Collab is not bundled with NB5 product; you will need to connect to the update center and download and install the module).
Or Sun Java Studio Enterprise 8.1 Beta (http://developers.sun.com/prodtech/javatools/jsenterprise/downloads/index.jsp)

Local disk access and sharing changes

I have a Mac Dual 2.3 Ghz G5 operating OS X Server 10.4.6. Among other things I use this server to run duplicates of a local internal hard drive, as well as networked client hard drives, to external Firewire backup hard drives that are local to this server.
Frequently the ownership and sharing attributes of these local external backup hard drives mysteriously change. Through Workgroup Manager, I set the disks to be shared, with certain users and groups having read/write privileges. Later, the read/write privileges mysteriously reset to "none", the owner is changed to "root", and the group is changed to "wheel." Sometimes the "share this item and its contents" box is mysteriously unchecked as well.
Manually resetting the attributes back to the desired state does not prevent the problem from recurring.
I use Retrospect 6.1.128 to automatically duplicate local and network files to these local external Firewire hard drives. I don't know if this is related to the problem or not. The backups run throughout the day.
What's going on and how can I avoid this continual reset of sharing and ownership attributes?
Thank you for any light you can shed on this frustrating problem.

Just out of Morbid Curiousity- If you get info on those Firewire drives- do they have the "ignore Permissions...." box checked.

Downloads to iPhone gone after sync with iTunes 9 and shared libraries

I have songs that I downloaded directly to my iPhone 3g-s. After the first time I synched the iPhone to my laptop after installing iTunes 9 and sharing songs with my desktop, songs have disappeared from my iPhone. When I search the song, the title is there but when I click the song, it says to purchase the song from iTunes. The songs are on neither of the 2 computers sharing songs. However, only some of the songs that I had downloaded directly to the iPhone from iTunes have disappeared.

I read another post here and the solution is simple: goto file and select 'Transfer Purchases from iPod". It works perfectly!

Is connection pooling and sharing available on Oracle 9i RDBMS ?

Hello,
I would like to connect from oracle to sql server through db link and ODBC (Heterogenous connectivity). But every session in oracle launch session in sql server. Is it possible to have connection pooling and sharing from Oracle RDBMS level ? I need one solution : when (for example) i run 100 sessions in Oracle i would like to see 10 sessions on sql server. I would like remain 90 sessions from oracle to be queued.
I would mention that i was using Heterogenous connectivity with multithreading agent (agtctl) without success.
appreciate any help :-)

There are two concepts you could evaluate, but they are mainly used for connections to the database, not to sqlserver, but if you can make them work with heterogeneous connectivity this could help:
Connection Pooling. When many sessions are connecting to the same database, it could be that some of them remain idle. Oracle can detect them and timed them out letting another session to enter into the database, letting the idle session remain open without closing its session. This is configured by means of the shared server architecture.
Session Multiplexing. Session multiplexing allows the same bandwidth to be used by many sessions at the same time, this enables the server to use fewer network connection endpoints for incoming request. In order for you to configure session multiplexing you have to configure connection manager.

Unable to print to Canon iR-Adv C5045 from MacBook Pro that is connected to Windows computer and shared on the network

I am unable to print to a Canon iR-Adv C5045 from a MacBook Pro (OS X 10.9.4) that is connected to Windows NT computer and shared on the company network. I am connected to the network by ethernet.
I was able to add the printer manually by going to Advanced, Windows printer via spoolss, smb://computer name/printer name and used the Canon iR-ADV C5045/5051 driver.
When I print it appears to be printing but nothing comes out. I checked the completed jobs from the Print Queue and the job is listed. Checked the print log on the printer and it isn't listed. Is there a different driver I should be using for this configuration?

You may not have a choice as to what driver you can use. If the ADV C5045 only has the default UFR2 printer kit, then you will have to use the UFR2 driver - which is what you are using now. If you can access the copier, press the Counter Check button on the control panel. Then on the display you will see an entry labelled Check Device Configuration. Select this and scroll down through the pages. You are looking for an entry called PS. If you see it then the Canon does have the optional Postscript printer kit enabled and this will let you use an alternate driver. One suggestion would be to create the printer again using the same setting that you have done already but this time select the Generic Postscript driver included with the OS rather than use the Canon driver. This will help to determine if the driver is the cause.
If there is no PS option you will have to use the UFR2 driver and this could be the problem, as the Canon drivers don't always work well on a Mac via a Windows share. As a test, are you able to create a print queue directly to the Canon rather than via the Windows share? If you can, then this will let you check if the driver currently installed will work, as there can be settings on the copier that can block/stop you from printing. Assuming that you can print to the Canon with a direct connection from the Mac, then we can work on getting the printing via the shared queue. But if it doesn't print directly from the Mac, then it confirms that it may not be the server and more to do with the copier.

Error when opening workspace, web analysis and shared services

Hi All,
We installed hyperion 11.1.2, Essbase on a AIX server, with reports etc on a windows 2008 server. when logging onto workspace, web analysis and shared services i get the following error message:
Error 404--Not Found
From RFC 2068 Hypertext Transfer Protocol -- HTTP/1.1:
10.4.5 404 Not Found
The server has not found anything matching the Request-URI. No indication is given of whether the condition is temporary or permanent.
If the server does not wish to make this information available to the client, the status code 403 (Forbidden) can be used instead. The 410 (Gone) status code SHOULD be used if the server knows, through some internally configurable mechanism, that an old resource is permanently unavailable and has no forwarding address.
If we re-start the server it sometimes work, but in the morining we have the same issue, can anyone help.
Thanks
Dylan

Hi,
Restart the services. Issue with Oracle Http server. If you restart foundation and other services I can bring workspace up.
Thanks

I bought a new ipad and shared my documents in Pages from the old ipad to my cloud, but the only document showing on my new pad is the ones that was not in folders. Have I lost my documents for ever?

I just bought a new ipad and shared my documents in Pages from the old ipad to my cloud, but the only documents showing on my new pad is the ones that was not in folders. Have I lost my documents for ever?

Thank you, but after an hour with apple support on the phone we came to the conclusion that the documents are lost... So the lesson is, don't trust icloud as a back up solution! A month worth of work down the drain...

Windows Firewall doesn't work as advertised: "File and Sharing (SMB-in)" fails to restrict by user, computer or IP.

Hello,
I'm trying to understand whether I'm the one who's crazy, doing something wrong, or whether Windows Firewall was designed to be broken (and stay that way through Windows Server 2008 R2!)
When I go to Windows Firewall with Advanced Security from the Start Menu and edit the Inbound Rule for "File and Sharing (SMB-in)", the result I am seeking is that I can restrict access by both user and computer.
Upon enabling the rule, and selecting the "Allow the connection if it is secure" option (and nothing else), the firewall obliges by denying any and all attempts by other computers to map or browse files.
When I enter the name of one PC in the Computers tab under the "Allow connections from these computers", again the firewall obliges and the said PC can now browse and map to shares on that server. HOWEVER, now other computers on the network are able
to do the same, as long as they have any set of verifiable credentials (like a local user/admin or domain user/admin, etc). Trying to restrict by user or by IP yield almost identical results. Both those who I do and do not want are able to access
files on the said server.
My question is this: how is this firewall rule supposed to work? What do we have to do to actually make it accept and reject connections based on the criteria we have provided?
My goal is to only allow SMB access to a user IF they log in from a particular computer or group of computers.
Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!
Waqqas

I too find the same problem. I enable the firewall rule, put in Local Addresses that I want to be able to get through the firewall to access the File shares, but it opens the firewall so any ip address can access the shares. Anyone have an answer?
And No, Niko Bellic, checking the MSDN forum is NOT the answer!

Network and Sharing Centre problems (again)

I seem to be tearing my hair out once again with the Network List Service. Several months back the Network and Sharing centre stopped displaying or reporting the active networks, although I was connected with internet access. A consequence was most of the
Metro apps would not work as they thought the computer was off-line.
The problem seemed to be that the permissions were wrong in the Network List hierarchy and adding Full Control for my user account in 'HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows
NT\CurrentVersion\NetworkList' seemed to solve the problem.
Once again thought the Metro apps are not working reporting no internet connection and the Network and Sharing centre has the following message:
Unknown
The service to detect this status is disabled
More Information
When I select More Information I get a dialog asking if I want to turn on Network List Service, when I click "Turn this on' nothing happens.
Having looked in the Event Viewer, there are a large number of this entry, maybe it is related?
DCOM got error "1068" attempting to start the service netprofm with arguments "Unavailable" in order to run the server:
Network List Service is reported as running in Services.msc. and task manager.
I tried to check the permissions in the registry key as I did before but key was missing (i think). I tried switching to a local account on the computer from my Microsoft Live account but no change, although when I checked the registry, the NetworkList
key was there and the permissions were correct. Maybe I was just looking in the wrong place but I was pretty sure it was missing...
Not sure where to go next with this..

Hi,
The Network and Sharing centre opens as normal but where you would normally see
'View your active networks' followed by the network or list of networks that you are connected to it just says:
Unknown (when view your active networks would be)
The service to detect this status is disabled
More Information
Clicking on 'More information' informs me that the Network List Service is not running and asks if I want to start it, clicking yes does nothing. The Network list Service is listed as running in Service.msc
I have tried a full virus scan and also ran a whole host of anti malware tools and the computer seems clean. I also tried sfc /scannow with no problems detected.
I restored and old clonezilla backup I had and it is fine now but made a system backup before I did. This is the second time this has happened and I would like to find a solution so I will revert back to the drive image with the issue and post a screen shot.
