Difficulties with DPP4

Is there any Help information for DPP 4.1.50.0? All I get from the menu pulldown is version information?
If I click on jpg or tif thumbnails they open in a window and I can shrink or enlarge the image and perform editing functions. This is not possible with CR2 raw images. They have what looks like an icon for not editable, a pencil and a "NO" icon. Indeed, I can do nothing with the raw images. How can I unlock them for editing or otherwise proceed?

The "not editable" icon means that the .CR2 file was created on a camera that is not authorized to use DPP V4. IOW, any camera other than a FF camera or a 7D (either variety). It's not clear why the distinction needs to exist; Canon has been vague on that point. The 7D (Mark 1) was a recent addition to the favored few, which lowered my blood presure by a few PSI. Believe me when I tell you that it was damned inconvenient to do a photo shoot using both a 5D3 and a 7D and not be able to use DPP4 to edit the pictures taken with the 7D. And it's still inconvenient not to be able to use DPP4 on pictures taken with my wife's T2i, since we do occasionally go on photo shoots together. (And I also have a 50D that I use occasionally and which doesn't make the cut.) Maybe Canon can be persuaded to see the light, but I suspect that some serious griping may be required.
I see now that John Hoffman reports that they've lowered the bar a bit more than I thought they had, but I still don't see the 50D or the T2i on the approved list.

Hook the phone to the computer, open the Computer icon and look for the iPhone folder. Copy the images. Not difficult at all. Sync your contacts with Outlook through iTunes. Not really so difficult.

Help - Difficulties with transate()

Hi, I am having some weird difficulties with the translate method. I am trying to reposition one of layers by using X and Y values from a CSV file. I tried to access the variables various ways. One was using part[5], (with 'part' as the variable'). Then tried setting variables for each value (as shown below). The dubber doesn't report any errors. The weird thing about it is that the code is supposedly executed, but the translate function is somehow 'ignored'. When I stop the script, I can see that it exists in the history panel. I get no errors during run time either. Can someone please help. I have no idea what is going on with this strange problem.
Also: I am working two documents. In my script I have it open an image that has a dpi of 266. The script duplicates the single layer of that file into a 72 dpi document and repositions the layer according to the x and y values defined in my CSV file. I tried setting both to 72 dpi, however nothing different happens. The only time something changes is if I put a constant number for x and y. By doing that, it doesn't even move to the spot it is suppose to. It repositions, but it is placed so far off the canvas.
//Duplicate unprocessed mugshot in its proper layer level, all-in-one step
app.documents[2].layers[0].duplicate(documents[1].layerSets[0].layerSets[part[3]].layerSet s[part[4]].artLayers[0], ElementPlacement.PLACEAFTER);
//Close unprocessed mugshot after duplicating
app.documents[2].close();
//Resize mugshot layer using a percentage
app.documents[1].layerSets[0].layerSets[part[3]].layerSets[part[4]].artLayers[1].resize(70 .7, 70.7, AnchorPosition.MIDDLECENTER);
//Reposition the image according to x and y values defined in CSV file
var x = part[5];
var y = part[6];
app.preferences.rulerUnits = Units.PIXELS;
app.documents[1].layerSets[0].layerSets[part[3]].layerSets[part[4]].artLayers[1].translate (x, y);
//Create mask clipping from mugshot layer
var desc3 = new ActionDescriptor();
var ref2 = new ActionReference();
ref2.putEnumerated( charIDToTypeID('Lyr '), charIDToTypeID('Ordn'), charIDToTypeID('Trgt') );
desc3.putReference( charIDToTypeID('null'), ref2 );
executeAction( charIDToTypeID('GrpL'), desc3, DialogModes.NO );

I've reworked your code a bit to use intermediate variables. This makes it
easier to read (for me, at least) and also perform better.
The translate() function is really a 'moveRelative' not a 'moveAbsolute'
function. The x and y parameters are deltas from the layers current location, so
that has to be taken into account as I've done below. BTW, I may have the terms
reversed where I compute x and y. I normally make an ActionManager-type call to
Transform to do the resize and move in one step.
-X
var doc1 = app.documents[1]
var doc2 = app.documents[2];
var ls0 = doc1.layerSets[0];
var ls3 = ls0.layerSets[part[3]];
var ls4 = ls3.layerSets[part[4]];
//Duplicate unprocessed mugshot in its proper layer level, all-in-one step
doc2.layers[0].duplicate(ls4.artLayers[0], ElementPlacement.PLACEAFTER);
//Close unprocessed mugshot after duplicating
doc2.close();
var layer = ls4.artLayers[1];
//Resize mugshot layer using a percentage
layer.resize(70.7, 70.7, AnchorPosition.MIDDLECENTER);
var bnds = layer.bounds;
//Reposition the image according to x and y values defined in CSV file
var x = part[5] - bnds[0].value;
var y = part[6] - bnds[1].value;
app.preferences.rulerUnits = Units.PIXELS;
layer.translate (x, y);
//Create mask clipping from mugshot layer
var desc3 = new ActionDescriptor();
var ref2 = new ActionReference();
ref2.putEnumerated( charIDToTypeID('Lyr '), charIDToTypeID('Ordn'),
charIDToTypeID('Trgt') );
desc3.putReference( charIDToTypeID('null'), ref2 );
executeAction( charIDToTypeID('GrpL'), desc3, DialogModes.NO );

Quit the game and restart the iPad.
To quit the game - Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
If that doesn't work try this.
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

Wow. Okay...
I'll let the real veterans in this forum tackle your issues one after the other. But, I can tell you, all will be well.
My only comment would be re: your computer specs:

To be completely honest, FCPX is a RAM hog. It just is. But, RAM is relatively cheap, and the pay-off is good.
4GB is right on the edge, IMHO. 16G is ideal.
I wish you luck, hang in there, and standby for more help.

I have a copy of PS CS5 Creative shop which was causing some difficulties with my computer Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit. I cancelled the activation of my CS5 and uninstalled. When I tried to reinstall the message showed :"missing file unable to initialize" what do I do.

Many thanks.
With those symptoms, I'd try the following document:

(If there's a SpeedBit LSP showing up in Autoruns, it's usually best to just uninstall your SpeedBit Video Accelerator.)

Which versions of eos utility are compatible with dpp4 and 5d mark ii? I selected "remote shooting" in dpp 4.2.1 and "A compatible version of EOS Utility not installed" msg displayed. (I installed eu 2.14.20 & DPP 4 yesterday)

Robert,Thank you for the timely response.

However, at this time, the EOS Utility 3.2.10 does not support the EOS 5D Mark II.If you are shooting remotely, you will have to launch the EOS Utility 2.14 and use the controls provided on that application” My other concern is the DPP3 recipe file format “*.vrd” is not compatible with the new DPP4 file format “*.dr4”Decisions Decisions…Thank youhdevaneyYou may be in luck. New versions of DPP 4 and EOSU 3 came out this week. It's probably worth giving them a try.

Is anyone having difficulties with the new yahoo mail and mac 10.8.5?

I am using an older intel based imac desktop...it is updated to 10.8.5 I use Safari to browse. I use Yahoo for my email. I know...don't say it. Please. LOL
Anyway, it seems that Yahoo has changed their email system (again) and I am having all types of difficulties. For starters it keeps asking to I want to expand or collapse all. The icon or whatever it is called these days stays right there on my inbox and blocks me from getting to the email that is beneath it. When I try to forward and delete the sender's name, it deletes the entire email. Is anyone else having these difficulties?
Thank you
Paul

As a general rule of thumb, I never install updates until I read its info and I am having problems with my current software. I hide the updates until I need them. Usually this happens when I update or upgrade my os. I don't fix what ain't broken is my golden rule.
It is possible that you need to update or upgrade Quark in order for your newer printer driver to work. First I would try the following....
Disconnect all peripherals from your computer.
Boot from your install disc & run Repair Disk from the utility menu. To use the Install Mac OS X disc, insert the disc, and restart your computer while holding down the C key as it starts up.
Select your language.
Once on the desktop, select Utility in the menu bar.
Select Disk Utility.
Select the disk or volume in the list of disks and volumes, and then click First Aid.
Click Repair Disk.
Restart your computer when done.
Repair permissions after you reach the desktop-http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2963 and restart your computer.
If your printer does not work afterwards, update or upgrade Quark. If that does not work, contact the printer manufacturer.

Video quality difficulties with Vimeo and Youtube sites and with smart phone

Ever since the Vimeo and Youtube sites have changed, it has been pretty difficult to get the video quality I had before. I'm using Final Cut Express to edit, Quicktime Player to resize the video to 640x480 (is too wide when saving FCE project as Quicktime movie), and Jes Deinterlacer to remove all of the jaggies that the original deinterlacing on FCE doesn't fully do (skateboarding video). I'm aware Final Cut Express 4 is a discontinued product, and Apple support over the phone can't help me. The quality is TERRIBLE on my smart phone, and used to be really good before the site changed. The Vimeo app played my videos very clear. I'm using a MyTouch smart phone. I want to know if the quality being bad on mobile is because of the sites being changed, and if there is anything I can do to get the quality I want. I've worked on this the past three weeks, and this is my final option, so any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. Here are the steps I'm using to export (still trying more export options in Jes Deinterlacer).
Step 1: In FCE, click "File", "Export", "Quicktime Movie". In "Include:", choose "Audio and Video", "All Markers" for "Markers:", and check box "Make Movie Self-Contained".
Step 2: Open file in QT Player. Click "Window" (at the top between "View" and "Help"), and choose "Show Movie Properties". Click "Video Track", and click "Visual Settings". Change the dimensions (which are supposed to be 720x480 4:3 but the video is stretched). Enter "640 x 480" for "Scaled Size:", then same with "Offset:" Keep "Preserve Aspect Ratio" unchecked, then when finished entering numbers check it (doesn't let you uncheck it which would be best). Check the "High Quality" box if it hasn't already been checked. Close the window, and click "File", and then "Save".
Step 3: Open file in Jes Deinterlacer. In "Input", check box "Reinterlace Chroma", choose "Video range", and check "Remove Jaggies". For "Project", choose "Deinterlace" and "Use Bottom Field". Check "Adaptive", "Local", and "Filter Chroma". In "Output", choose "Video range". Choose "Export", and "Mpeg-4". For "File Format:" choose "MP4", for "Video Format:" choose "H.264", and for "Data Rate:" enter "2000" for "kbits/sec". Leave "Optimized for:" "Download" as is. Choose "640x480 VGA" for "Image Size:", and "Current" for "Frame Rate:". For "Key Frame:" choose "Every", and enter "24" for "frames". Click "Video Options". Leave the "Main" box checked, and check "Baseline" for "Restrict Profile(s) to:". Choose "Best Quality (Multi-pass)" for "Encoding Mode:". Click "Ok". Click "Audio" (since done with "Video"). For "Audio Format:" choose "AAC-LC (Music), for "Data Rate:" choose "320 kbps", for "Channels:" leave as "Stereo", for "Output Sample Rate:" choose "44.100 kHz", and for "Encoding Quality:" choose "Best". Click "Ok" (leave "Streaming" alone).

First, I would do a Search on this forum for "FRAPS." There are several articles with comments on the best workflow and also settings for Import and for Export.
Next, YouTube is trobulesome. First, they re-encode everything and their specs seem to change weekly. It's tough to find out what they want on any given day. I'd go to their site and get the very latest instructions and attempt to duplicate those perfectly, knowing that they might be different tomorrow.
Good luck with this one, and good luck with the FRAPS footage.

Server Difficulties with allowance

For the past few days, I have tried to setup an allowance for my daughter and I keep getting a message that says:
+"We are having server difficulties. Please try again later."+
Been trying for a while, it keeps failing. Any clues? Anyone seen this?

Opened a case with apple, they were able to reproduce the error.
"Dear Marly,
I finally was able to get it to go to the point where I could try and purchase the allowance, and I received the same error that you initially reported. Now that we have finally been able to confirm that it is something specific to the account, I am going to open an investigation into what is causing it and report back as soon as we have resolved the issue.
