DEADLINE IN 2 HOURS HEEELLLPPP
I've made a movie in iMovie and exported to Quicktime in the largest setting allowable. I can view the movie fine in Macs, but when I try to open the movie in PC, it gave me an error message, "Can't open the file "Movie.mov" because it is not a file that QuickTime understands."
Somebody please help me!
Thanks in advance
Did you use the new H.264 video codec?
It would require the PC have QuickTime 7 installed.
Upgrade the PC.

Deadline, Business Hours vs. Maintenance Windows
I read the blog about Business Hours vs. Maintenance Windows, but I still have two questions
http://blogs.technet.com/b/server-cloud/archive/2012/03/28/business-hours-vs-maintenance-windows-with-system-center-2012-configuration-manager.aspx
Event 1: Application A
No Maintenance Windows & No Wake on LAN;
Business hours is 5am to 10pm;
User start laptop at 8AM and close at 5PM every day;
Deadline is 11PM, Thursday;
Available is 9Am, Monday, User clicks "Install Later".
So when A will be installed?
Event 2: Application B
Maintenance Windows is 1AM to 4AM , NO Wake on LAN, B has not been configured that install when out of Maintenance Windows;
Business hours is 5am to 10pm;
User start laptop at 8AM and close at 5PM every day;
Deadline is 11PM, Thursday;
Available is 9Am, Monday, User clicks "Install Later".
User never start laptop in Maintenance Windows time, so if it mean that B will never be installed?To add a couple of clarifying points to the article linked:
- Business hours are meaningless after a deployment's deadline and are only used before the deadline.
- Business hours are only relevant if a user has explicitly stated for a deployment to be enforced outside of their business hours.
- The intent of business hours is to allow users to schedule enforcement of a required deployment before a deadline but outside of their work hours so it never interrupts them.
The article does say all of this, just not as directly.
For Event 2 (application b), this is why using maintenance windows usually doesn't work well for workstations. Why would the business hours be set for 5AM to 10PM though? That really makes no sense based on my third point above. Of course in this case, if
the system is totally off, it doesn't really matter anyway.

I tried to download an e-filing client software from the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) website [http://www.wipo.int/pct-safe/en/download/download_client.htm] using Firefox. Clicking the link to download yielded no activity. I eventually tried the same link in internet explorer and it worked. This occurred last week. I have a deadline to complete an international patent filing today; and in order to do so online, I had to request a Secure Digital ID from WIPO. It was approved and received early this morning (Central European Time Zone); and the accompanying guidelines suggested that I use the same computer and browser to retrieve the ID. This meant that since I use Firefox as my default browser my request was also made and had to be retrieved in Firefox. Following the WIPO support instructions I ran into exactly the same problem of inactivity when trying to "Backup" my newly installed ID certificate per WIPO instruction, so that it may be imported into the e-filing software. Please help as soon as you can as my patent deadline is merely hours away. Please also see a response from the WIPO helpdesk below:
Dear User,
we hereby provide the following solution / answer to your request:
Subject: Certificates (use of and different types)/26708 Answer from PCT-SAFE Help Desk:
Unfortunately, apart from revoking your new certificate and then re-enrolling using Internet Explorer, I do not see many options.
We cannot do support for external software, like Firefox, but I had a quick glance at Mozilla's support side and it seems that you might be able to resolve your problem by starting Firefox in safe mode, and/or disabling all your Firefox extensions. I have to stress the fact that this is not a procedure tested and approved by the PCT-SAFE team.
As this is an extremely time-sensitive issue please also contact me by phone so that we can work through the solution in real-time. I can be reached at 555-555-555 - Sheldon

== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== Attempting to download from a secure serverJust to follow up on my findings. My last issue regarding the digital certificate was not at the time of initial download into Firefox, but my application required that I backup the certificate into a folder which can then be accessed to sign a submission generated by a third-party Client software.
After finally steering away from the digital signing route by opting for a non digital filing of my project, I later revisited the Firefox certificates list only to find that the 'Backup' button still didn't work or respond in any way whatsoever; however since I only had a single certificate on my list... I threw my hand up in the air and tried the 'Backup All' button... guess what - that worked!! My browser then navigated to a file browser which allowed me to save the certificate to a folder of my choice. Of course this was after the fact as my deadline had already passed and and I had the Administrator who initially granted my secure ID revoke it once I was blocked from downloading it by Firefox.
Just an update/FYI for y'all... But I'm not sure if this type of anomoly is due to a glitch on my computer or a glitch on the browser - but it certainly did catch me off-guard during a deadline. -
Hi guys, I need help in debugging this code I made, which is a GUI minesweeper. Its extremely buggy...I particularly need help fixing the actionListener part of the code as everytime I press a button on the GUI, an exception occurs.

minesweeper.launchFrame(length);hi, thanks. that removed the exception; although now the buttons action listener won't work :(
here is the revised code:
To anyone out there, can you guys run this code and help me debug it?
I'm really desperate as this is a school project of mine and the deadline is 7 hours away. I have already been working on it for 3 days, but the program is still very buggy.
thanks!

Time Variable in Container Operation in BPM
hi,
how can we add a time variable in container operation in BPM?
Say i want to increment the time upto 5 hours and see if it has reached in my loop.
how can we achieve this?
Tiruhenrique -
I have a block with a timeout defined.
Within the block i have the deadline with control step which triggers the exception
I have the exception handler which has a send step which sends the actual error message.
I have a send step which polls the http receiver and is in a infinite loop.
Now the first time i receive an error message i get an email which is good and should work that way.
Next time if it errors out it should continue until a deadline of 8 hours and then should send out an error email.
What happens is i get the second error message immediately without the deadline getting exceeded.
When i look at the workflow log the exception handler gets executed but i don't see a sign of the deadline getting executed?
Any reasons why its behaving this way?
Thanks,
Tiru -

Prority applying filters in Develope module
LR is one of the best tools for those who wnat quick ranking, metadata editing for copyright, sorting and processing LARGE quantities of files...
Among those photographers wedding, event and sport shooters are those who really need to fastly sort thigns outm they are most interested in using LR.
also, the same photographers work in the most critical lightning environments, very often we shoot in very bad lightning at very high ISO settings.
for us noise is a real pain.
as we all know, advanced processing of a very noisy raw material exponentially increase noise levels in the final product.
for this reason, inside PS, our workflow include NR filters among the first operations we do...
this way, working on a cleaner background, the noise is kept under a relative control.
often, at the end of our workflow we again trim the nise as a final touch...
back to lightroom, few questons and requests are born from this imediate reality we confront each day:
1. LR offers NO control regarding order develope adjustments are applied... this is sometimes good, other times a real pain...
2. there is no information regarding WHICH is the order those filtes are applied when developing RAW files... NONE.
we could guess the order they appear in XML files and inside develope module is the order they are considered when RAW information is processed?
that mean noise is indeed among the last filters applied, correct me if i am wrong.
3. how we could maximize our results? just make minimum adjustments in LR, go to PS, where we can control the order of applying filters, process and export from there???
not exactly compatible with our need for speed and easy processing large quantities of files that make us choose LR, isn't it?
not to mention RAW data offers much more "hidden" info we can bring to life thru processing compared to exported PS files, even 16 bit tiffs are not as "good" on this regard...this is the reason we shoot raw, to benefit from this better latitude of information raw's offers ....
4. now the requests themselves:
a} please allow us to choosethe order of applying these filters...maybe not all, not all are that critical, but things like NR we should be able to put among the first filters applied.
if Adobe already thought about this and NR is among the first on that list, please let us know. we NEED to know , we need that info, we need control.
b} please allow us to double the filter alteration.
as i said, we often apply a NR fiter at the beggining of the workflow and then again, another NR with softer settings at the end of the workflow, sometimes just before the final sharpening.
such flexibility and customization availability would really help us, especially those who really need lightroom and do not have the time to bring every picture in PS and tweak it...
imagine shooting 1000 pictures in one session with a delivery deadline of 24 hours...LR is great help, have a lot of great features and we really apreciate the wayit works, even this elastic way of applying filters inside develope module...
BUT it would be a much better tool with more flexibility available.
Thanks Adobe, i also compelted an official request form regarding this subject.
maybe someone who really knows how things work inside developing engine could bring some light in this regard, how things really work right now,even this info could be very helpfull.
regards ,Liviufirst i need to KNOW officially how thigns work, if ucan offer me a proof i'd gladly accept that.
second, as i said, adobe might have think about that, is a request area and i have theright to request what I think is usefull to me.
i ask for more CONTROL, what is wrong about that?
i also request for 2 alteration using the same filter, NR in this case, once at the beggining and one at the eng of the developing process, i am also entitled to ask for such a thing, right?
qith all due respect, if u do not have similar needs please allow me to ask , understand and not suppose adobe thought of everything and there is no better way, ok?
here is a quote from a XMP file, i PRESUME the order if operation inside that file is the one processes are piped, am i wrong again?

so ,as u see i spaced the noise reduction fucntions in order to make them more visible, i can;t use colors to underline what i consider important, ok?
SO, as u can see here, WB, exposure, contrast, SHARPNESS, brightness, SHADDOWS are ALL listed BEFORE noise reduction...
later on the end of the list there is ANOTHER sharpening listed, so double fiter IS ALREADY applied, thus possible, right???
again, ALL fiters applied BEFORE NR influences noise levels, all increse noise, more or less....
WB influences exposure, try to go 50000 and see where hystogram goes to the right...
exposure also increase noise in shaddow areas.
contrast increse noise.
brightness also influence noise.
Shaddows are working exactly on most noisiest levels, the shades...
sharpness before NR??? indeed, is "well thought"...
so, Lee jay, seems i am not that wrong after all, isn't it???
i really hope that order inside XMP to mean nothing but i really doubt is meaningless ...
and again, even if a were wrong, i am entitled to ask explanations as i pay for this product. I also am entitled to ask for what i consider improvements, if Adobe decide to implement or not is another discussion...
a little "friendlier" tone in your replies would also be apreciated, thank you in advance. i hope u do not work for Adobe ;)
so, i am waiting for documented proofs related to my questions, thank you Adobe. -
Can't EXPORT or RENDER in PREM CC!! "Error compiling movie. Unknown Error."
I am using PMW200 MXF files alongside 5D MKiii files - I finished the edit and went to render/export and it won't let me do either! I can't get the edit out of the software and I have a deadline in an hour.
I only bought the software today (have been using the trial version and I am just coming from FCP 7 - I get this error:
"Error compiling movie. Unknown Error."Hello Bill
The Adobe KB Article (http://helpx.adobe.com/premiere-pro/kb/error-compiling-movie-rendering -or.html ) does not answer the question asked, because the end of the error message is "Unknown error" which is not listed in this article.
I often encouter this error which is a RANDOM error which occurs only with pictures (4256x2832 .jpg or more when I use panoramic pictures with more than 50 MPx) but never with video (1920x1080 HD .m2ts) from my camcorder. The only way I found to do a complete render is :
- save and close the project without editing it,
- close Adobe Premiere Pro (CS6 or CC, same error),
- reopen Premiere Pro and reload the project,
- resume the render.
If I render WITHOUT Mercury Playback Engine : all is perfect, no error but the render needs very much more time.
My own conclusion : this render crash might be due to VRAM oveflooded during render with Mercury Playback Engine (this might be checked and monitored with the freeware GPU-Z).
My GPU is GTX 570 with 1280 MB VRAM and the render are only full HD (H.264 1920x1080i).
If you have a solution except remove the GPU and purchase a GTX 770 OC 4 GB VRAM, I am waiting for it.
My actual system :
- CPU Intel core i7 970 (6 cores, overeclocked to 3,9 GHz),
- MoBo : Intel DX58SO2,
- RAM : 24 GB,
- GPU GTX570 with VRAM 1280MB (Nvidia driver allways up-to-date),
- HDD : RAID 10 with four WD 1002FAEX (7200 tpm, 64 MB cache),
- OS W7 64 SP1, 64 bits (allways updated)

Hi!
I am trying to use a Mathscript node in LV 8.5.1, but with no success. I get the
error "VI Failed to compile" and the Mathscript is "marked as the main error". I have
used Mathscripts before but never had these problems. I use Windows XP SP3.
Everything works fine when I try the Labview Mathscript Example.
Do you have any solution for this problem?
Thanks in advance!

Solved!

MathScriptTest.vi 48 KBIt looks like I might be having the same sort of problem in 8.6.
I have a large project (deadline in several hours, of course) and suddenly one of my VIs will not compile.
Can anyone tell me if there is something in this VI that is causing the Mathscript node to fail?
I don't really have time to reinstall!

Question*
Without a great deal of training on DVD Studio Pro, I must meet a deadline within 6 hours (Thursday, 5 p.m. Pacific time)! I have prepared all the menus and tracks. In the course of preparing the final video version, I replaced the video and audio in the Main Track several times. The problem is that the Source video name has not changed to the newest video put in the track timeline.
When I built and formated a DVD copy, the original track was put on the DVD (as far as I can tell). How do I change the source of the Main Track to the name of the newest video track? I managed to change the name of the title at the bottom of the Green Menu Box (forthe Source track) in the Graphical section. Also, the name in the View to the left above the Timeline changed to the new video name. However, the name in the Connections files continues to show the old video name. In other words, the Source still contains the original video name.
Any suggestions in a hurry?Thanks again for your kindness and good support. I had some trouble with deleting the first Source file from the Assets box because the source file was connected to two menus. Since my friend built the menus, I was not sure how to disconnect the first Source file from the menus. This meant that, while I could delete or move the PAR files, I was not able to delete the first Source file from the Assets.
So, I tried a slightly different approach. I changed the name of the first Source file in the original FCP Quicktime file to a completley different name. After doing this, I made a duplicate of the second Source file and renamed the duplicate the same name as the original Source file. Of course, I had to re-import the new first Source file with the same name and different video content into DVD Studio Pro. I used only the changed first Source video file and things worked after a lengthy delay building and encoding the recognizably different first Source file (with now different content).
Does this make any sense? Also, if you are reading this, would you mind explaining how to disconnect an Asset that is connected to the Menu in order to delete the asset file?
Anyway, I appreciated your help and effort. -
Need DPS Desktop Tools old version to replace 2.06 update
Can Adobe or anyone tell me how I can get a download of the previous update to DPS desktop tools (2.05?) - that is, the one previous to Jan 25 2013 2.06 update.
There's a bug in the update with embedding iFrames, and I'm on deadline for an app that uses several iFrames.
I really need to get the last version reinstated, where iFrames were working just fine.
The official line is "We've confirmed there's an issue with iframe-hosted content produced with the v25 tools. This is, unfortunately, how youtube videos are hosted in folios. We are working on a fix." (No time given)I'm upset that the update code wasn't checked before release.
My client is a weekly newspaper using many iFrames. I have a deadline in 6 hours.
Can you suggest a workaround?
I've tried embedding old html style code with no effect. Have also tried using HTML from BrightCove no effect. -

WLC 2006 & LAP1231 communication
HI,
I Have problems with AP authentication on the WLC. AP gets the IP from the DHCP but fails to load the image.
On the WLC log I get:
Sun Sep 3 21:49:51 2006 [ERROR] spam_lrad.c 2544: Security processing of Image Data failed from AP 00:17:59:67:76:80
Sun Sep 3 21:49:51 2006 [ERROR] spam_crypto.c 653: Failed decryption of message from AP 00:17:59:67:76:80
On the AP I get:
*Sep 3 21:54:27.750: %SYS-5-RELOAD: Reload requested by LWAPP CLIENT. Reload Reason: COULD NOT DOWNLOAD NEW IMAGE SUCCESSFULLY.
*Sep 3 21:54:29.750: LWAPP_CLIENT_ERROR: not receive read response(0)
Any ideas ?
Thanks,
VasilThanks,
I thought of that. I just purchased all the equipment without the service plan, big mistake !
I don't have CCO (yet) so I can not access the new image files for the WLC2006. I am running 3.2.7.8.0 and the latest one is 4.0.179.8
Any alternative sources for the image files or I would have to wait for my order to be processed? I have a deadline of 12 hours to fix this.
Thanks,
Vasil -
Turn Off Deadline Less Then 1 Hour Notifications
A quick question... If i set Deployment deadline less than 1 hour
to 0 minutes will this turn off notifications for that time period?
Reason being the other two options more than cover what we need, and if it slips past the deadline the maintenance window should deal with any outstanding clients.
Andrew France - http://andrewsprivatecloud.wordpress.comYes, I know this is an old post, but I’m trying to clean them up. Did you solve this problem, if so what was the solution?
You can’t set that option to anything less than 5 minutes, so it is not an option to set it to 0.

My computer went crazy yesterday on two occasions involving PDF documents. One dealt with attachments to an email from a bona fide corporation. The other dealt with IRS PDF forms & schedules needed for today's submission.
As both dealt with PDF and had nothing else in common, I suspected my PC had a virus. When I asked a local store technician, he agreed. I turned to Norton, which protects my PC from viruses, and after a few hours of really thorough searching, the computer was found to have no viruses.
Before describing what I call "crazy" computer behavior, you need to know that I have long had IE8 as my default browser but a few weeks ago switched to Mozilla Firefox because IE8 had beome incompatible with some websites from which I get information.
When I received the email from AT&T email service and clicked the first of four icons representing attachments, there was figuratively an explosion on my monitor: a series of new tabs, each called New Tab, burst onto the monitor--but no text or picture. The new tabs appeared faster than I coul kill them. I finally decided just to shut down the computer, hoping they would not reappear when I restarted. I was wrong. After 2 repeats, I decided to forget about the attachments and asked the sender to send them to me by regular mail.
That was no solution for my IRS PDFs. I wanted to complete filling in the various forms and schedules that I had begun months ago so that I could mail them today to the IRS (without having to copy them all in ink). When I tried to open the first one, BOOM. The same thing happened: the blizzard of New Tabs atop blank pages; my IRS form or schedule did not show up. Did the same shutdown/restart routine with the same results.
When I looked at the list of current forms that had to be completed, I noticed something very strange: the icons that began the listing of the documents' names were replaced one by one by Mozilla icons. When I moused over them, they said Firefox HTML. Why?
Starting the day today, I had the same experience. What's more, when I started to retrieve 2012 IRS PDFs from a year ago, the same New Tab tabs appeared and had to be killed, and Mozilla icons replaced whatever icon was there before.
Assuming that the problem arose with Adobe Reader's reading of the PDFs, I contacted Adobe but got no helpful phone number because PDFs are a free service and was directed to use this Forum to get help.
What do I have to do to (a) read and use PDFs in the normal way and (b) remove the Mozilla icon from those that have appeared on icon documents. If Mozilla is the source of the problem, shall I go back to IE8? (In my 80s, I want eventually to replace my old computer but for the time being I must continue using it. It will not take an IE9. Anther possible default browser would be Google Chrome, but I have unfavorable impressions of it because of its intrusiveness, loading my PC with stuff I do not need.
Can you help?The problem is absolutely not Reader. The problem is that FireFox has stepped in front of Reader and handles all the PDF stuff - wrongly in your case. FireFox is DESIGNED to take over PDF files. But it is not capable of doing IRS forms!
To start with go back to IE for these forms. When you save them to disk DO NOT DOUBLE CLICK ON THEM until this is fixed. Just open the in the normal way - start Adobe Reader and use Open from the File menu.
