Disappointed by missing basic functionality

I recently started working with Muse, and got frustrated by the fact that there seemingly is no Show/Hide functionality.
Also, am I correct to say that there is no direct import for Mp3/4 media? If so, why not?
Lastly: if InDesign can have basic animation options, then surely it wouldn't be so hard to include it in Muse.
Muse works great, but I am quite disappointed by this lack of basic functionality.

Thanks for your response.Yes I agree with you - I put my expectations in the fact that Muse is developing fast.
However, what I'd regard as a very basic feature for any interactivity (show/hide), is missing. Instead of having abutton that can show or hide icons on a map, I now I have to create a duplicate of the same page that don't show them. So when a user click the button, another page first has to load!
Clumsy and stupid.
Thanks for the link - I'll have a look at it.
Regards
Cobus

Missing basic functionality

Is there a reason why the iPhone does not support custom ringtones for calendar reminders, v-mail notifications, and incoming SMS notifications? This is basic functionality which has been present in most other cell phones for the past 10 years.
Also, is there a reason why the iPhone messaging app does not display the date/time of an incoming SMS message? It's fairly inconvenient to not know when a message was received!

Why do apple release products with so many basic functions missing? Print!

I love the iPhone and i love the iPad but why do apple always leave so many basic functions out of their devices.
The iPhone was missing a decent camera, mms, multiple sms send, multi delete otions, contacts import from sim.....and many other things.....they eventually got there.
Then they bring the iPad out which i would buy tomorrow and use for business to display my brochures, PDF's, port folio and type up quotes but there is no printing option.....whats all that about?
I wouldn't mind if there was even a decent app available for it but i'd really like an option in Pages to print a bloody page!
Why do apple do this? I have a Canon ip100 that i have been using for wireless printing with my IBM Thinkpad to type up quotes and print brochures on the move........if I buy an iPad i can no longer do this. It's like stepping back 5 years!
Can anyone shed any light on why apple would produce such a product without the ability to print properly. It's so frustrating!

Your obviously a huge apple fan and going to defend it's lack of functionality. A print function is not going to effect battery life, nor decrease hard drive space. If it was intended purely as a toy then why include software to write documents and create spreadsheets. I don't know many people who create spreadsheets for fun.
What about people wanting to print photo's. 'There's an app for that'
I personally think it's a huge oversight and a major disappointment for the iPad. If it is capable of it why not include it.
I agree. I think a camera is a ridiculous thing to have on the iPad.....but you should be able to connect a camera o it and upload photo's.
If apple hadn't left so many features off of the original iphone i would probably just accept that this is what apple intended the product to be used for and tough luck if it doesn't do what i want it to. But Apple left so many simple features off of the iphone it was ridiculous. They revolutionised the mobile phone but at the same time took it back 5 years in functionality. No MMS, No multi delete, no multi sms recipients.........etc.
For a company so keen on selling top notch products to as many people as possible it seems crazy not to have a print function. Loads of businesses would use this if it had. I'm not the only one that thinks it's crazy not having a print function....just do a google search and there are thousands more asking the same thing.
Adding a print function could probably sell a couple of million more units.
It is a computer by the way....it runs an OS system. It has programs......it's just not a fully functional computer!
Apparently Stove Jobs has said via an email that printing will come.......if it;s going to come then why wasn't it here to start with!

Missing some basic functionality

I seem to be missing some basic functionality, like switching to tty1-n using Ctrl+Alt+F1-n. I can't begin to guess what this is related to, as after several installs I've never experienced that to be missing. Can anyone point me in the right directions? Thanks.

Hm. I don't actually have that file in the policy directory.

Basic functions and functionality missing from Safari 4.0

Just trying to move to Safari from Firefox. The Develop tools cinched the move (hidden by default! Huh?).
After all the years, I cannot believe Apple still haven't fixed some basic requirements of a web browser.
1. Cannot find anything similar to Live Bookmarks (for viewing RSS feed headings). This makes RSS bookmarks far less useful (more or less useless, in fact, as you may as well have an ordinary bookmark and visit the site).
2. All new links "seem" to open in current tab. Making tabs more or less useless. What's the point of having them if all new links open in current tab by default? Only way I can open in new tab is by holding down Command EACH time I click a link. Doh! Who thought of that default? A simple option that asks you if you want to open ALL new links in a new tab OR window is the expected behaviour -- to override, hold down a key.
3. Cannot reorder bookmarks alphabetically (unless I have overlooked option). Couldn't do that waaaay back when Safari came out and still cannot years later.
4. Adding bookmark opens bookmarks bar. Have you seen my bookmarks bar? Anything above 10-20 and the list takes years to find a target folder. While I can drag URL into a top level folder on the bookmarks bar, what if I want to add it a subfolder? Add 500 bookmarks and then try scrolling the list.
5. Cannot open bookmarks and view a page at the same time! At times you just need something simple. While cover flow may be useful "sometimes," here it just gets in the way. Why not have two versions? Simple (view bookmarks and page at same time); Complex (a link that navigates away from current page and shows bookmarks with cover flow)?
Apple, please fix ASAP. What's the point of having fastest browser if basic functions are overlooked (some overlooked since Safari first came out)?

Post you report in Apple Bug Report. This is only a user to user forum. But at the same time I think some of your issues are easily addressed and will be shortly by other users.
Cheers

Basic functionality missing.

After the downtime yesterday, the speed has improved from completely unacceptable to marginally acceptable, but some basic functionality has disappeared.
1. Usually when more than one answer has been given in a thread, one would have the 'Go to original post' appear. Now it often appears only after 2 or more answer and sometimes not at all.
2. When you recieve a Private message, the 'Your Stuff' field at the top would turn red, to draw your attention. No more.
Whom do we need to contact at Adobe to get some semblance of a functioning forum, instead of this very old Jive crap, that probably makes the Adobe-Admin tear his hair out each day, if he still has any left.

After several years I stop using Dreamweaver, Adobe focus on basic functionality!

First, sorry for my english its not my native language.
DW is my favourite editor but after several years I stop use this product because its crap... sorry about that but its true.
All my live I create websites, I never doing something else so I know what pro user really needs, but absence of basic functionality is main reason to leave DW and start to use PHPstorm.
Brackets and tag highlighting is still missing in DW, Adobe think about it.... in some cases its hard to use it.
Bye DW and thanks!

You shouldn't need to export anything, though I don't know what they do these days for trial version restrictions. You should be able to save it to a disk directly using Save As (at this stage since it's already saved most likely).
To save a copy of it as a CS3 file, again, you choose Save As, and in the bottom of the file saving interface you should be able to select CS3 from the lower drop list. I don't know what Macs come with for zipping files. On Pc's these days you simply send the file to a compressed folder via a filename--when you right click it a menu appears with that as an option.
At this stage I figure it likely has to do with whatever tweening you do for the buton mc's, but I'd be guessing even more to try to tell you what to try. It will probably involve having to move your event listener assignment code and that could get a little tricky. It'll be easier for me to try it out than to take you thru each possible approach.
So see if you can save a CS3 copy of it (change the name so you don't lose your current file) and let me know... if you can compress/zip it, better chances the email servers will process it. If so, I'll send you my email address via a private message.

Iphone basic functions

Just upgraded from Nokia to a 4s but am very disappointed ! There is no speed dial or say callers name. 2 functions that I need on a phone. And the Apple fails.
Very let down. Any thoughts

Even Apple support admit there is no speed dial or Say Callers Name, 2 basic functions that my last 3 Nokias have had. I have now even noticed, that the I phone is slower at downloading emails than my last Nokia.
You mean the dozen times a day I say a caller's name and the phone calls it are my imagination? Favorites is NOT Recents. Favorites is up to 30 numbers that you call regularly. You assign them to a contact. So program the first 8 numbers into Favorites, and you won't have to scroll. You can even "name" them with a number if that is easier for you to remember than "Bob". But don't ever have more than 8 Favorites, because that's all your Nokia had.

Basic functions (high) in query formula for highest # of days past due

Hi All,
I hope you can help. I am trying to create a formula in a query for FIAR Line Item Cube (0fiar_c03). I would like to calculate the hightest number of days past due for open line items. There is an operator 'high' in basic functions within the query formula. Is it possible to use this?
Regards,
Cheryl Adamonis

There is a workaround usind conditions.That is you can try to filter the top 10 % or top 10 after calculating the no of days past.However this way you will not be displaying complete dataset

It's a common issue. The Basic panel is merely hidden.
Hiding/unhiding panels is actually a feature of Lightroom but it is unintuitive - few people know it exists - so most newcomers are thrown when a panel somehow gets hidden.
Right-click anywhere in the right hand side panel area and a context menu will appear.
Click the Basic option to make the Basic panel re-appear.

ITunes 11 is ostracizing users; how do I get back to an older version since basic functionality is lost in this one?

I wish only to put a premade playlist onto the IPod. Sure, it's an older IPod, but seriously, basic functionality has been lost in updating. I don't want a work-around, I want ITunes to cater to the users. I do not want to re-select, song by song, a large playlist, I want to put a playlist on my IPod. Why must this be a difficult task?

Also, I cannot edit the playlist. Once it's on there, it's on there for good.

Inspire 5.1 Digital 5600 - LOSE BASIC FUNCTIONALITY?

Hi all,
We will see if this gets edited. This is in addition to the original message, as I have no answers, just more questions. I have bought Creative products all my life, Ill leave it up to you in deciding wether I will in the future. If anyone actually knows a way around these problems, please let me know. Im sure I wont have a reply from Creative, but I will live in hope that I get a personally deli'vered set of speakers that adds to my options, not diminishes them!.
Well, I have XP Pro SP2, Audigy DE and just bought Inspire 5.1 Digital 5600 to upgrade from my cheaper analog 5.1 speakers that sounded OK and worked fine. I read all about the 5600's and thought - better sound, heaps of connection options etc. Their NOT exactly cheap! The point I would like to make is that I had good 5.1 sound, and now I have better sound AND A WHOLE LOT OF HASSLES IN RETURN FOR SPENDING A LOT OF MONEY. WHAT A MISTAKE.
I have THE ONLY AVAILABLE 5.1 connection from my Sound Card to the 5600 speakers, 3.5 mm 4 pole jack to din to din to speakers. (thats simple isnt it!!!) I have all the latest drivers etc, etc, etc.
NOW ...
1) If Im listening to 5.1 ie DVD, You dont get any system OR ANY OTHER sound? (Thats great for when your on the Net and need to know whats happening, isnt it's)
2) So I figure, well Ill connect the SC to the decoder using analog cables, SORRY, YOU CANT DO that unless you want to lose a channell? (for the sakes of one more center\sub jack or using all the pins in the DIN plug.)
3) Well, Ill set the mixer to do AC3 Decode to try and get back any other sound besides 5.1 Dolby, SORRY, that doent work either ... No matter how you have the decoder\Amp set up, you lose the center channel, ie, no voices?!!
4) Well Ill use the passthrough feature as it explaines in the book, SORRY, IT DOENT WORK EITHER, its meant to pass the Dolby Digital straight through to the respective channels, IT DOESNT? You lose the rear channels. I have tried every combination of everything, and you cant get ANY OTHER SOUND when you are playing Dolby Digital 5.1. so you have a "on board decoder" that NOW DOENST WORK and cant be used?
5) Why buy another 5.1 Dolby decoder when your Sound Card\Software already does it ... well I wanted to be able to use the other anolog Sound Card outputs ... SORRY, YOU CANT. When you enable the digital output only in Surround Mixer, IT DISABLES ALL THE OTHER SC output JACKS as well. GREAT!!! so you cant even feed an anolog signal in to it to try and get the "other" sound back that way? THEIR IS NO WAY!
6) All the controls .. ie... Bass Redirection, AC3 Decode, Sub Volume, Center Volume, Balance and fade controls all DONT WORK at ALL when playing 5., and the bass Redirection works backwards whith standard PCM Sound!?
7) The TEST SPEAKER function in Surround Mixer is now useless except for standard stereo. (no wonder they put a test function on the remote!)?
8) Their is bad initial distortion when you ie, fast forward, start, stop ANY Dolby Digital source?
(10 THIS IS THE BEST ONE - They DONT TELL YOU ANYWHERE about any of this stuff?, Unless Im stupid, I dont feel these speakers are fit for their purpose, is that not a condition in the Trade Practises Act? Creative, please knock on my door! and PLEASE DONT send me an Email with a "reload the drivers" pre-formatted Email, I couldnt bear the added stress!
11) How come you cant plug the Audigy straight in to the 5600 decoder with a mono cable like it says you can with every other Amp\Decoder you can buy, then they could have used the other DIN Plug Pins for anolog Audio as well and at least reatained similtanious multi sound format.
I just dont get it! Why does it have to Dolby Decode a Dolby Decoded Signal?
12) etc. etc., etc.,etc. etc., etc.,etc. etc., etc.,etc. etc., etc. ....
I could write 5 pages of all the other area where you go BACKWARDS, but I have better things to do with my time, all from a relatively expensive purchase. SO what have I ended up with ... Sure, these speakers sound OK, a bit better than my old $45 speakers, but I end up hearing one type of sound from my computer at a time with NO WAY to remedy it (inexcusable) and a second Dolby Digital decoder that I didnt need in the beginning that removes the most basic functions and I also lose the analog outputs on the sound card. Also the Dolby Digital output is about 40% quieter than "standard" PCM sound! And dont forget, be carefull, dont turn them up too loud, or you might blow the fuse and have to spend a fortune and be without speakers for weeks\months while a Technician has to to replace the fuse at great cost! (thats what they tell you in the book) And dont leave that massi've 2.5 amp power supply on all the time, that will even send you more broke trying to pay the power bill.
I have never bought a product before that removes options and useability, your money is meant to buy you these things, isnt it's? Hopefully Im just an idiot and someone will tell me this nightmare is over. By reading the other posts, I can only assume that any real posts like this are nuked in seconds, so you end up with a whole lot of useless dribble that doesnt help anyone, just wastes more of their time for spending their hard earned money. Creative, you should be ashamed of yourself, especially after such a good past record. I feel for all the stress the majority of posters have and are going through to this day. Please post this message un-edited, as it will save me having to publish it elsewhere. I do not believe it is defamitory, it is just the truth.

SQLDeveloper-64bits Missing Migration-Functionality

Hi all, after years of absence from Oracle, I am back
I've installed Oracle11gR2 64bits (11.2.0) , jdk1.7.0_40 64bits and SQLDeveloper 64 bits on WIndows7, all seemingly successful. Then, I tested the installation by creating a test schema and some views.
Following that I tried to migrate the MS SQLServer database Northwind to Oracle, using these instructions:
http://www.oracle.com/webfolder/technetwork/tutorials/obe/db/hol08/sqldev_migration/mssqlserver/migrate_microsoft_sqlserver_otn.htm#t2
At the point where the instructions say to "Capture the Microsoft SQL Server Exported Files", I noticed SQLDeveloper missing the functions for Migrations.
Since my return to Oracle is mainly to study the 64bit version of 11gR2 and to migrate SQL Server databases to Oracle, it would be most helpful to know how to use the missing migration
function, else it is a show-stopper.
Where can I get the add-in for the Migration function in SQLDeveloper?
Some help please?

Some doc links:
3.2.2 help doc: SQL Developer: Migrating Third-Party Databases
3rd party migrations: Database Migration Technology</title><meta name="Title" content="Database Migration Technology&q…
Of course, searching the forums can be useful if you have questions after reading through the help documentation:

BB Calendar Missing Crucial Functionality

How it should work:
1) Select a time using a calendar view
2) Choose "New appointment"
3) Link directly to Contacts from the Subject line of the appointment and choose a contact
4) Save
-5 seconds and you have the calendar entry.
-No slow re-typing of a name that you already have in your contacts list.
-No tedious auto-emails zipping about to "attendees" when you have already arranged the meeting via phone or in person.
-You have a link to the contact's phone and email right there in the appointment where you would want it.
I cannot believe that this super-basic functionality is not included in BB software. Has anyone seen an app that offers this? It is common in the Windows and Palm worlds, but I have looked at Agendus and Pocket Informant with no luck.

The BB will certainly do the job when all of your appointments are arranged via invite-style emails to co-workers that spend their days with access to their corporate email. In the case of a consultant or a salesperson working with the general public, appointments tend to be made by phone and the customer may not be on email every day. Massage therapists, financial planners, or salespeople often have the same “subject” for an appointment; the customer’s name. The need to type the customer’s name into the subject line really does slow down the process of setting the appointment if the other party is on the phone with you while you hunt and peck. It will also lead to misspellings that will make it more difficult to find all of the instances of their appointments at a later date. Every smartphone app tries to minimize keystrokes for good reason. And of course anytime a contact’s name appears in your PIM it ought to link back to the contact’s info instead of just being plain text. That is a fundamemtal aspect of good PIM design. Had I known that the BB is really intended to work in one very narrow context for setting appointments I would have stuck with my Windows Mobile device that does what I describe with no problem. RIM is promoting their phones to a broad range of professionals and consumers, not just to large enterprise users. The fact that the BB can make the type of appointment that I want, but in a more cumbersome and functionally deficient manner, is not much of a selling point.
Thanks for your reply nonetheless.

Basic functions not working in Acrobat Pro X...

Hi,
I'm finding that basic functions are not working properly. I tried re-launching the application as well to determine if a technical glitch or not.
Control + Shift + R is not allowing me to rotage a page.
Control + or - is not letting me zoom in & out, however when I click the big plus or minus icons, it does.
What's with the loss of short-cut functionality? Please advise, thank you.

Have you downloaded the user guide PDF to read about what is new or different?
