Desktop mode...

I've created some projects with Adobe Premiere Pro 1 and 2 and would like to migrate them over to my new CS3 machine. The problem is: when I copy over all the files and try and open the Premiere file I get a dialogue box that tells me "The editing mode for this project could not be loaded. The project will be opened in Desktop mode." Apparently, Desktop mode is no good because I can't open the project this way. I've searched the Help in Premiere to no avail. Can someone explain to me what is happening and how I can port over these projects?
Thanks in advance...

Create a new project in CS3 and import the older projects. This is usually more robust.
Cheers

Tablet PC calibration error in Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator CS3 whilst in Extended Desktop Mode

Hey everyone!
I've run into a snag which hasn't bugged me before because I never used a second monitor, but now that I do, Photoshop and Illustrator don't function properly.
I am running my Adobe products on my Lenovo X61 Thinkpad Tablet, which is Wacom PenEnabled. It's got the basic digitizer pen and pen pressure features, no stylus tilt or anything.
Whenever I run Photoshop or Illustrator in Extended Desktop Mode so I can have a different window open on my external monitor and the Adobe app on my tablet screen, my stylus goes strange. It seems to think that the extended desktop is part of the Adobe window, so when I move my stylus to draw, the cursor will appear on the external monitor, usually proportionate to the size of the screen...ie. It interprets the external and tablet screens as one desktop and the top left corner of my tablet screen is the top left of my external, whilst the bottom right on tablet IS the bottom right on tablet, if that makes any sense...sorry.
So I can't draw anything in photosho unless I set it back to standard desktop mode, or mirrored desktop. I've searched over the net and these forums and I can't find a fix for this. I was walking in harvey norman the other day and the Wacom Cintiq 12" was there on display, and it had the same issue with extended desktop and photoshop.
Has anyone had this issue before and/or does anyone know of a fix for it? I'll keep searching around and playing with the computer until I fix it and I'll post any solutions I find here if noone else has one.
My system details are:
Abobe Photoshop CS3 10.0.0
Adobe Illustrator CS3 13.0.0
OS: Windows Vista Build 6001, Service Pack 1, 32bit
RAM: 2GB
HD: 18.2GB free Disk Space (out of 66.3GB on the Active Partition)
Video: Intel GMA: Mobile Intel(R) 965 Express Chipset Family

I'm using an HP tx2011au tablet pc, using adobe flash cs3 and have the exact same problem. it becomes decalibrated only while the flash window is open, and only while flash has a file open, and only when using an extended desktop. even if flash is open and it has no files open it works fine.

Quicktime does not work in firefox 24 in windows 8 desktop mode

I am running Firefox 24 on Windows 8 Pro 64-bit in desktop mode. I have QuickTime Plug-in 7.7.4 installed. But when I try to go http://trailers.apple.com/trailers/ and play trailers all I get is black box and nothing is playing. No prompting to authorize a plugin, no error message, nothing. I tried to see if it will work with other browsers, so I tried Google Chrome. I went to the website, got prompted to authorize the plugin and then was able to play trailers without any problems. The page won't even render correctly under IE. So, it makes me conclude that it is a browser problem. Can you help me please? Thanks.

Is his in a normal tab or in a private tab?
Try to disable hardware acceleration in Firefox.
*Tools > Options > Advanced > General > Browsing: "Use hardware acceleration when available"
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
*Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window.

Windows 8 Desktop Mode Apps have no access to internet

I've seen a couple people ask questions about their browsers not working in desktop mode for Windows 8, and none of them were answered. I've got the same problem with mine, however it's any application that runs in desktop mode.
Problem: NO application running desktop mode has internet, games, browsers, chat programs...nothing.
History:
-Was running Windows 7 Ultimate and upgraded to Windows 8, choosing to migrate over all my applications files and personal settings.
-Metro style apps and browsers have no problems accessing the internet
Attempts:
-attempted to reset IE 10 Desktop mode to all default settings, clearing browser cache, SSL slate, and resetting to default.
-attempted to reinstall chrome.
-running CMD prompt in desktop mode, able to ping and use DNS as normal
-Windows 8 defender is disabled, running MS Forefront for AV.
-forcibly set my adapter DNS to a google dns 8.8.8.8
Any idea's what to try next?

hi there rebirth16 i had the exact same problem upgraded from windows 7 64bit to windows 8 pro and my desktop apps would not connect to the internet but the apps on metro did :-s. (strange) i upgraded with all my software and personal files intact im not
sure but some setting or some program caused the internet on the desktop to not connect. after a day of going through the pc my solution was to reinstal windows 8 but selected for it to just keep personal files i.e music pictures videos but not software after
that the finished the internet worked perfect well happy now down side you need to reintal your programs but this is the only way i could fix it.

Why does Digital Edition not work in desktop mode for WIndows 8?

I have installed the most recent version of JAVA and then downloaded and installed Digital Editions. I can open Digital Editions in desktop mode but when I select a book I cannot turn the page or move to a new page by any means. The only thing that seems to work is to select a new page and then toggle between full screen and partial.

I don't think ADE uses Java at all.
I run it in desktop mode in WIndows 8 and it reads books and turns pages fine: either using the left-right arrow keys,
or clicking on the forward/back buttons each side of the scrollbar at the bottom of the page.
There are lots of bugs in ADE2.0, and even though that isn't a bug for me it may be for you.
Try replacing ADE2.0 with the older but more reliable v1.7.2.
(You can have them both installed at once if you like.)
Version 1.7.2, it is a little difficult to find, available on Adobe site for Windows and for Mac.

Cs4 project loaded as desktop mode in cs5

Hello:
Just made the full upgrade yesterday from cs4 to cs5 on windows 7 from vista using the matrox with max. Loving the HD editing. I also tried to open an SD cs4 project in cs5. While opening, and after the message that tells you it is converting to cs5, I got this message - 'The editing mode used by this sequence could not be loaded. The sequence will be opened in desktop mode.' So the project opened, I created a new sequence with the matox settings and cut and pasted the original sequence into it. Any area that had to be rendered went pixelized. The only way I could get rid of this was to remove all colour correction, effects and transitions. When I reintroduced them, I ended up with the same result. I have found a work around, and that is opening a new project and importing the old cs4 project into it rather than just trying to open the cs4 project with cs5. Rather than using matrox settings, I just rerendered the sequence and it works fine, however, I don't have my program monitor which is controled through matrox. This will be the last of two SD projects, but wondered if anyone else had this issue.
Thanks, Christine

Yes, the Export function is the best that you will be able to do. There is usually forward compatibility between versions' Projects (though with a few pitfalls and failures), but there has never been backward compatibility. Closest that I have ever seen was some CS3 Encore Projects would Open in EncoreDVD 2.0, but that does not help you.
Good luck,

IN Windows 8 Desktop Mode, Firefox continually puts a background window over a new window when a new window is opened.

I am running Firefox in Windows 8 in Desktop mode. If I have a window open, and then open a new window, the previously opened window will open in front of the window just opened. If there is more than one window open when opening a new window, it is usually the most recently used window that opens in front of the new window, but not always. There can sometimes be a delay as well - I can begin to type in the new window, and the previously opened window will open again. I have tried various Option settings, but nothing seems to prevent this behavior. Occasionally, when I have several windows open at once, two or more windows may open on top of the freshly opened window.

'''Try the Firefox Safe Mode''' to see how it works there. The Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.''
''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
* You can open the Firefox 4.0+ Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* Or use the Help menu item and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
''Don't select anything right now, just use "'Start in Safe Mode"''
''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut (without the Shift key) to open it again.''
'''''If it is good in the Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one.
Please follow the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.
''When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help other users who have the same problem.''

IE10 won't work in desktop mode

So I'm using an HP laptop. OS is Windows 8. I use Internet Explorer 10, and the IE app on the Windows 8 home screen works. But when using desktop mode, IE doesn't work. When I click on the IE tab, a window comes up but it never loads. I tried a couple
of things like restarting my computer, clicking out and back into IE, disabling add-ons, using the troubleshooter to detect problems in IE performance (no issues detected), and nothing worked. So I've been using the Windows 8 app version of
IE, but I prefer to just use it through desktop mode. Does anyone have any idea of what is wrong and how to resolve the issue?
Thanks in advance.

starting IE in the NoHome state and then getting out of it.
What did you see then? It should have opened a res://ieframe.dll/NavCancl.htm page.
You could run ProcMon to see what is going on. It would be best to have two traces of this scenario, one working and whatever it is that you are getting. Typically your case is found to be something else that you have forgotten about that would
be interfering. Broken Family Safety is one example but I also saw it caused by the Java updater, so it could be just about anything. Using the suggested diagnostic should keep your traces as compact as possible.
You could also try simulating the same scenario in a safe mode boot. Unfortunately we cannot use ProcMon in that environment but you could at least use SysInternalSuite's AutoRuns to compare what is being loaded in each case.
Good luck

Using extended desktop mode with ThinkPad x220

I have an Acer AL2216W external monitor. It has a resolution of 1680 x 1050
http://support.acer.com/acerpanam/monitor/0000/Acer/AL2216W/AL2216Wsp2.shtml
When I use extended desktop mode with the external monitor set as the primary display, everything scales properly on both the external and internal monitor.
However, if I set the internal monitor as the primary display, the external display does not fill the screen (there is a big black border around the desktop).
In both cases, the resolution setting for the external monitor is 1680 x 1050.
Is this normal behaviour?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hello,
That's how Windows behaves. Supposedly Realtime Soft Ltd.'s UltraMon gives you more precise control over wallpaper under Windows, but I have not used it myself.

Screensaver eMac monitor while in extended desktop mode?

Officially, eMacs can mirror to an external display but cannot do extended desktop. Since my 2005 eMac's built-in monitor is only functioning correctly at low resolutions (see http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2013835), I'm using a program called Screen Spanning Doctor to run it in extended desktop mode. My eMac is running Mac OS 10.4.11.
*I'm searching for a way to run a screensaver and/or turn off the eMac's built-in monitor while I continue to use my external monitor.* Is that possible? I've configured my external monitor to function as the primary display while the eMac's built-in monitor is the extended display.
Thanks!

Hi all,
I've found a solution to my problem!
I'd forgotten that Mac OS X allows each monitor in an extended desktop configuration to have its own desktop picture. I copied all desktop pictures to a new folder, used the procedure described at http://www.macworld.com/article/51937/2006/07/savedesk.html to copy all Apple screensaver photos to that new folder, and then configured System Preferences => Desktop & Screen Saver => Desktop to use that new folder and change the picture every five seconds. EDIT: I selected "Random order" too.
This won't be too distracting since I'm using an external monitor as my primary display. Also, this solution should require only a tiny percentage of my computer's resources. Thanks again to all of you for your great ideas!

Extended desktop mode

Can anyone with a new imac and a second monitor verify that the new imac supports extended desktop mode? (I know it's supposed to work, but I'd just like to hear it from someone firsthand).
First reports of this feature was like the cherry on top! I'm hooked on extended desktop mode and it was my one regret in deciding to buy a new imac: now no regrets and no excuses: gotta order one!

I'm sure apple lied about it....
Glor
Didn't "think they lied", but it was only briefly referred to on the Apple website and I had first heard about it from a Mac rumor site, so I wanted to verify it. Sorry, but I just wanted to hear it from someone who actually was using it, since the new imacs are starting to arrive. It's a feature that means a lot to me and I'm very excited about it being included.
In the debate about "should I get the G5 imac or the intel imac?", this feature alone would be a clincher for me.

24" iMac and 20" Cinema display extended desktop mode ?

I got a 24" iMac and a 20" Cinema display. I wanted to know if they will work on extended desktop mode? I didnt try to hook it up yet as I am waiting for mini dvi to dvi adapter to come.
Thanks

Hi,
according to this http://developer.apple.com/documentation/Hardware/Conceptual/HWTechVideo/index.html#//appleref/doc/uid/TP40003504
you should have no problems (you must scroll a bit down the iMac 24" section)

IE 11 does not open in desktop mode on Server 2012 R2

We've built our first 2012 R2 servers. IE11 will open in metro if it's not set for desktop mode. It will fail in desktop mode. It will however open if you go to an admin command prompt, go to c:\program files\internet explorer and run iexplore.exe. When
trying desktop mode in the event app logs, event ID 102, task category (101) appears with the message "the program iexplore.exe version 11.0.9600.16518 stopped interacting with Windows and was closed". I have tried everything I've found using Google:
reset, use software rendering, etc and nothing helped. Any suggestions?
Ben JohnsonWY

Hi Ben,
Your issue can occur if the IE setting is incorrect, or the temp folder need clear up. If you are not choose Always in Internet Explorer on the desktop, IE may use Metro mode. Also disable enhanced protected mode for a test.
This issue may cause due to some registry problems occurred.
To resolve this issue, follow the below steps:
a. Click Start, click All Programs, click Accessories, right-click Command Prompt, and then click Run as administrator.
b. Type regsvr32 actxprxy.dll in the Open box, and then click OK.
c. If the command was successfully executed, you will receive the message ‘DllRegisterServer in actxprxy.dll succeeded’ window.
d. Restart the Internet Explorer
If the above given steps also did not help then try to disable the antivirus and firewall and try installing Internet Explorer 11 manually.
Hope it helps.

Extended desktop mode with external display

I use my Macbook with an external display. Sometimes I need to use extended desktop mode and sometimes I don't need the extra desktop space and prefer to work only with my external display. My needs change as I work throughout the day and I'm getting tired of having to close the Macbook to put it to sleep and then wake it up without opening the lid to just have one display (the external one).
I'm wondering if anyone knows if there's a way to put the Macbook built-in display to sleep while continuing to work with the external display, without having to put the Macbook to sleep first. I'm thinking that there's got to be a way to do this (maybe there's a piece of software out there or some other work around?).

Thanks for your suggestion. That's actually a workaround I've used. The only problem is, the display isn't really put to sleep. The result: I still get an extended desktop and occasionally I "lose" my pointer. A bit annoying, but thus far the only solution I've come up with.

Desktop mode...
