CS3/Mac photoshop.executeScript problem

Hello
I am having trouble getting photoshop.executeScript() to work on CS3/Mac. photoshop.executeScript is a simple wrapper for BridgeTalk and I want to call it from InDesign.
I have seen reports of others being unable to get it to work. However, I have also seen reports of people doing InDesign/Photoshop cross DOM scripting.
Using ESTK2 the following 1-line script works with target apps bridge, illustrator and indesign but not photoshop (unless photoshop is also the host):
app.executeScript("alert((12345678).toString());");
I would like to know whether this is a problem specific to my installation.
I have also looked at how BridgeTalkIterator in the Bridge CS3 WasScriptLibrary.jsx does things and can't figure out how I might get photoshop.executeScript to work for me in InDesign.
Any clues would be much appreciated...

There is no app.executeScript function in PS.
photoshop.executeScript('alert("testing")') works fine for me from ESTK2 and
from in PSCS3 on XP.

Dreamweaver CS3 (Mac) and Menu Master

Since my work with Dreamweaver involves the very frequent
repetition of certain sequences of steps, I have greatly speeded up
my workflow by recording and storing a number of special commands
accessible via tthe Commands menu. Unfortunately Dreamweaver does
not allow the assignment of keyboard equivalents for user-created
commands, so until now I have relied on the haxie Menu Master to
make good this deficiency. But Menu Msster fails to work properly
with Dreamweaver CS3 for the Mac. I have alerted Unsanity about
this problem, but I don't think they have taken my complaint very
seriously. I suspect that other Dreamweaver users have used Menu
Master for the same purpose. If so, I would appreciate it if you
would contact Unsanity too. A bunch of similar complaints might get
thier attention.

Hi. I am experiencing the very same problem. No issues for
years up until recently - but my problems started not long after I
installed the latest upgrade for Mac OS 10.5.4 to 10.5.5 - I am
going to use Time Machine to revert back to 10.5.4 it may not be
the answer, nor a long-term solution but it driving me nuts.
I am currently deleting sites out of my site manager and then
reloading them from the STE file everytime I need to work on them.
I have read that this problem existed in Dreamweaver 8 on Windows,
but an update sorted it out - lets hope an update appears soon to
fix this problem.

MAC strange wireless problem

I think I might have a rather unusual issue.
The problem is that my Macbook Pro (Lion osx) is not able to connect wirelessly to my Photosmart B109n. I can only connect via the usb cable. I am sharing the printer with two other laptop users(both windows), but they are able to connect wirelessly. I've reinstalled the driver multiple times and tried to setup the network configuration again and again but nothing works. This problem already exists for a while, also before I upgraded to Lion.
I am quite sure the problem is not caused by my router. At school, I am not able to use the HP color laserjets as well and I can only print via ethernet. In other words, there is something wrong with my mac. I seriously have no idea what it could be.
Our 'home network' is called 'Fitz'. Whenever I try to setup the network printer configuration, the printer asks for the network key and tries to connect to 'Fitz'. Every time the printer is able to connect to the network. After that, the config. assistant tells me that I can remove the usb-cable to continue the setup. Then the trouble happens. At the moment that I remove the usb-cable, the laptop immediately tells me that it isn't able to connect to the printer, because I am not connected to 'Fitz' (I always am) and I can only use the printer wirelessly if I am connected to 'Fitz'.
Resetting the print/fax list doesn't work either!
Please please can someone help me?? Thanks!
This question was solved.
View Solution.

Curious how many of us are having the same problem---design defect? software bug?
I have done the following over the past few days (repeatedly, not in this order):
1. Turned off and restarted printer, Mac (OS 10.6), Airport router
2. Reset the printing system in System Preferences (at least 30 times in last 5 days); usually followed by restarting printer
3. Removing power cord, waiting 30 seconds, restarting holding # and 6
4. Turning bluetooth off and then on
5. Turning wireless radio off and then on
Sometimes these fixes work, but only for 1 or 2 print jobs, then back to "Connection Failed. Unknown Error." And we start all over again, trying to guess which fix might work *this* time.
Sometimes I get a message on printer to remove USB device...when there is NO USB device connected. Nor has there been a USB device for at least 2 months (only USB device I have ever used is a flash drive for saving scans).
Printer is Photosmart All-in-One C309a, bought November 2009. Wireless issue appeared out of the blue last week. I have always had HP Printers but unless I can fix this problem for good this week (I am under deadline!) I will buy from another company.

Strange menu lag in PS Elements 12

I'm running Photoshop Elements 12 on a 64bit installation of Windows 8.1 and generally it runs really well. However I've noticed a strange menu lag issue whereby when I move the cursor over over menu bar menus it lags noticable and seems to 'stick' and jump between menu items.
I've got a quad core i5 and 12gb of memory so the computer is well up to the job of running PSE and if I open Task Manager whilst observing this menu lag it shows no spikes of processing power or any obvious issues.
I wondered whether anyone knew what was going on or any solutions; it's not a major problem but is rather irritating.

As far as I know Photoshop CC does not have an Adobe watermark associated with tryout as does Premiere Elements.
And, Photoshop CC is now marketed on a subscription basis.
Right now the only way I can get a full background replacement is to go into the main menu psd and replace its background
layer in the Layer Set with a 1920 x 1080 image.
I have found that will present full in the Movie Menu customization area but if I replace it with another image in Movie Customization those black "trims" are back.
This is what the Secret Agent (HD) looks like with its background layer replaced in the .psd using Photoshop CS5.1 and then the edited theme
opened in the Movie Menu customization area of the opened project
Just do not replace the Menu Background Video or Still that you see in the screenshot and you are OK.
I did a Snipping Tool copy of the background you posted to use for the demo.
We can talk about this some more in the morning.

also, are there any intelligent, user friendly no nerdish on getting icaht video to work -

Now my cousin says i have to reboot twice from the and there are ni links on the web. does it mean taking the netgear router off the wall?
Or will it get better if stick ethernet cable directy. any help would be gratefully received

My 160g iPod classic was originally formatted to PC and I have now moved across to Mac. What problems will I encounter syncing my iPod with my iTunes on my Mac?

If it's formatted for usage with PCs, syncing it from a Mac may be slow, it can't store files which are 4GB or larger, and its firmware can't be updated from a Mac without restoring it.

Have never heard of that problem before so can only give you an idea of some things to check.
Check in the Homehub management that it is not set to block access to the mobile devices. If you did a factory reset of the hub then it should have cleared any settings but it might be worth checking.
Have you checked that they are connecting to your Homehub and not to BTWifi which would require further log on to get internet access.
What exactly is happening with the devices when you try to connect to the internet. Is it all things to do with the internet or can you connect by 3g?
Have you tried to connect using another router such as at a friends house?

i've done a spotlight search for them with no result and have scoured through my preferences folder with no avail.
any help would be greatly appreciated!

CS3 Mac: Button highlights preview and show on computer but not set top player

Hi,
I have a pretty simple project on CS3 Mac Encore (all Apple & Adobe updates except Quicktime is 7.3.1). It consists of three menus which started as Photoshop files with the button overlays done in Photoshop.
I have been DVD authoring a long time on DVD Studio Pro and am an expert with After Effects, so I had no problems setting up the DVD on Encore. It previews perfectly, and when I burn it to DVD, it plays perfectly on my Mac. However, when I tried to play it on two different set top DVD players (both high quality - one JVC and one Panasonic) the button highlights do not show up at all -- you can't tell at all which button is active.
I hunted through the posts here and at other forums, and the only suggestions that I have found are that it might be a corrupted project. I have tried trashing the preferences, repairing permissions, and rebooting, and the problem persists. It is a very new installation (I recently formatted the drive, and installed a fresh OS with Apple's suite and Adobe's suite because of the recent Quicktime 7.4 bug).
So... I will try to create a new project and see if this still happens. In the meantime, has anyone else seen this?
Thanks,
Graham Jones.

I'm having the same problems with a very simple dvd I created. 1 main menu (static background image and buttons from the encore library) and 1 scene selection menu (static background with the same button). Ouput to dvd -r and have 100% playback on computer, but I'm having varied playback on set top players. The dvd's play, but button highlight is not visible. The dvd will navigate as long as you count the clicks of the remote... I have duped 40 copies and my client couldn't play them on several different dvd players he has. We have tried them on several of our own players and not found a problem, but I traveled to his site and checked myself; they don't work. The 2 players that wouldn't display the highlights are a jvc dr-mv5su and a brand new durabrand sts96. I have re-created my dvd using dvd architect and they play fine on all the players (using a standard underlined text highlight). Any suggestions??? I really don't think I'm doing anything wrong, but I am new to Encore CS3 Mac.

Adobe CS3 Suite -- How to Get InDesign and Acrobat Pro to Install?

I uninstalled and deactivated my Adobe CS3 Design Premium from my 1st gen Macbook (2006) and installed it on my 3rd gen Macbook Air (2011). When I installed CS3 using the original discs, InDesign and Acrobat did not install properly. How to fix?
My questions:
1. Got any ideas how to install InDesign and Acrobat Pro without uninstalling the whole CS3, running the cleaner tool, and reinstalling everything again? I tried to rerun the installer just for InDesign and Acrobat Pro but I got the same result -- no install.
2. Installing CS3 takes forever -- at least several hours. Is it because I'm sending it over my wireless network? (I'm "sharing" the DVD drive on my other Macbook because my Air doesn't have one.)
Thanks so much!!
(More background, in case it's useful -- before installing CS3, I had run the Adobe Creative Suite Cleaner Tool to clean up the mess I made when I tried to migrate CS3 using Mac's migration assistant. I learned, thanks to this forum, that I couldn't use the Migration Assistant tomove CS3. I also found that the unistaller didn't transfer, so I manually deleted folders and then used the cleaner. It worked wel enough to allow me to install everything but InDesign and Acrobat Pro.)

Thanks Jeff (and Manish). I'm all for better reliability and a quicker installation.
This may seem like a dumb question, but how do I properly copy the CS3 install files onto a USB? Drag and drop everythng from the CD? Can I not just copy the files onto my desktop and install from there? That is what I thought Manish suggested, to install from the desktop.
I had tried this method. After copying the install files to the desktop, here's what happened: I clicked the setup application and it opened, but it immediately detected that I had CS3 installed and wouldn't let me go any further. Perhaps that was due to other problems resulting from use of the Migration Assistant.
Previously, when I used the install disk on the shared drive, I was able to open the setup and install the couple of CS3 programs that weren't installed the first time around. That installation attempt failed and led me here to my original post.
Many thanks!

Dreamweaver CS3 Mac -- PowerPC vs Intel

I have Dreamweaver CS3 running on a dual 1.8 Power Mac G5
with 1.5 gigs of RAM, and I think it's a dog. It's so much slower
at everything than DW8 that I find it impractical for daily
use—especially for managing a remote site via FTP. It seems
to work much faster and reliably for my colleagues on Windows XP on
newish PCs, however, I'm wondering if what I need is a new Intel
Mac. If anyone is running Dreamweaver CS3 on a MacBook Pro or Mac
Pro system, I would like to know your impressions.

I just received a brand new MacBook Pro with 2 gigs. I'm
running CS3 Mac and
Win (with Parallels) I don't like the Mac UI and stuff, but I
must say that
I'm very impressed with the performance. I've it hooked to a
20" monitor and
now I barely use my Desktop PC which is a Core2
Quad/2.4Gz/4Gigs/64 bits (to
tell you how good is the MacBook Pro).
I just can't stand the keyboard though...

Mac Pro Fan Problem

Hi, I have been having some problems with a Mac Pro I have been working with. At the Start-up the Fan goes to top speed and once it logs-in the fan is still pretty loud. I've checking the Temperature of all the computer parts via a Temperature Diode, and its normal and not high. After searching the internet for hours looking for posts that were for the Mac Pro and not for the MacBook Pro (which comes up in about all the searches using the words Mac Pro Fan Problem) and I found some software all of which is not for Mac Pro's. Is there any application I can run do reduce the RPM of the Fans, Reset the Fan Speeds to only turn on when it get hot, or something along those lines.

Thats odd, seeing as Apple have it listed in the Support article:
To reset the SMC on a Mac Pro:
1) From the Apple menu, choose Shut Down (or if the computer is not responding, hold the power button until it turns off).
2) Unplug all cables from the computer, including the power cord and any display cables.
3) Wait at least fifteen seconds.
4) Plug the power cord back in, making sure the power button is not being pressed at the time. Then reconnect your keyboard and mouse to the computer.
5) Press the power button to start up your computer.
It does exactly the same thing as the SMC_RST button, simply by removing all power from the system. I would assume the reason for this would be that the SMC settings are stored in RAM, which is erased once the power is removed from the board, hence the minimum 15 secs wait which gives time for the capacitors in the power supply and system to discharge.
So yeah, it does do the trick, or has done for me in the past a few times.
