Do favorites in the Favorites pane persist in different versions of Help?

A simple question here, but I couldn't find it in Help. When users use a new version of a Help file and click the Favorites tab, will their favorites from the previous version of Help display? Or will they have to re-add those topics to the Favorites pane?

Hi all
Colum is spot on with this. The Microsoft Windows CHM viewer stores favorites information in a small file on the system. The file name is HH.dat and contains other information than simply favorites. Window size and placement and which tab was open when you closed the CHM file. The HH.dat file is a central repository for this information for ALL CHM files you open and use on your system. It's not specifically matched to a single CHM file.
Hopefully this helps... Rick

    If you have been using the mac.com Apple ID to make iTunes purchases recently, then there should be no issues continuing to use it with the new iPhone. I would abandon the new ID as you will never get Apple to merge the two IDs. I have had a mac.com ID for years and continue to use it with my iPhone 4S.

  • What is the best way to save different versions of a project?

    I am working on a documentary with hundreds of hours of footage. I've been told that to avoid file corruption, I need to regularly save different version of the project. I've done some research and there appears to be different ways to do this.
    In Lisa Brenneis's FCP book, she suggests using "Save As" to protect one's work (renaming the old copy with a version number, and using the same name for the most updated version). This makes sense to me, since this would avoid FCP creating new capture folders every time I change the name of my project. However, I'm wondering if there is a difference between doing Brenneis' technique or duplicating the project.
    Are there different schools of thoughts on this? Does anyone have a system that works for them that they recommend? I've done research and I can't find anything on this topic, other than issues with backing up (I'm working with several hard drives - but what I'm most concerned about is avoiding file corruption and making sure my media isn't all over the place).
    Thanks for sharing!

    Good topic!
    I use the technique of popping over to Finder and using command-D
    to make a copy every once in a while. Then at the end of the day,
    I'll make a copy of the session to another disk. Whenever I've done
    a lot of work that I never want to lose, I take a copy to another location.
    If a backup is super-important, be sure to test it!
    It only takes a minute to quit FCP, and double-click on the backup.
    When I return to work the next day, after making sure my project opens,
    I delete all the "copy" files, then make a new one and the process repeats.
    When I output the edit for others to work on or approve, I will make
    a special copy of the project with the date encoded in the file name,
    Japanese-style (e.g. MyProject_2009-01-22.fcp and RoughEdit_2009-01-22.mov),
    then I never touch that file. Doing the dates Japanese-style means
    that they will be organized chronologically in Finder.
    Keeping these intermediate projects means that people can refer
    to very specific times on specific versions, and I can find exactly
    what they are talking about.
    As far as media goes, most people do not back up tape,
    because it's such a pain (you need two drives). People tend
    to keep their tapes in a box somewhere. This can work OK
    if you never use Capture Now.
    Since capturing from tape is such a time-consumer,
    and since I don't usually work with tape anyway,
    I focus on good disk backup. Ideally I'll have a disk
    and a backup at home, and a copy of the media files
    at another location.
    Be sure to keep the backups organized and named
    carefully so you can FIND what you are looking for
    if you need to. Adding a little text file in your folder
    explaining stuff is not a bad idea.
    People talk a lot about media failure, and yes all media
    will fail someday, but I use backups mostly because
    of my mistakes, like deleting the wrong file or something
    stupid like that.
    Be sure to back up all the other little files you might be
    using in a project, like Filemaker databases, graphics files,
    important emails, hours logs, etc.
    It's good that you are thinking about this important topic.

  • I have subscribed to the 11 a month Photoshop CC, yet have not gotten a registration number to change the product from trial to registered version. Help?

    I need a registration number. Or some way to continue using Photoshop beyond the 29 days remaining the trail counter says I have left.
    Not having direct access to a customer service agent is crap service, by the way. It's unfortunate I desperately need to get art painted and don't have time to look for, or learn, a different paint package.

  • When I share the video it exports a different version than what appears in the timeline

    I've had a really frustrating few days waiting for exports (to Apple Devices) and processing (when uploading to Vimeo). In my timeline appears the properly edited video, but when it gets shared, the video drops clips that I have added, and includes clips that I removed early in the editing process, and gives me a final product that is not my intended video. Please help, need to get this video uploaded for a client yesterday!

    Changes made inside compounds are reflected in the project - there is one caveat and I wonder if that was the case for you: compounds, like any other clip, are trimmed to a given duration in the timeline. If your changes made that duration change, you'd have to adjust in the project timeline. For example if you create a 1 minute compound and then edit in its own timeline so that it beco es, say, 5 minutes, it will still be trimmed to 1 minute in the project timeline, and you may have to drag the edges of the clip to extend as much as you wish. This is NOT a bug.

  • Why are emails downloaded with the subject and from address different from what is actually in the email?

    The subject and from address listed in the message pane are totally different from what is in the actual email, viewed either in the preview pane or when the email is opened. The emails are correct when viewed online. For example:
    Email subject A from Sender A - email A
    Email subject B from Sender B - email B
    Email subject C from Sender C - email C
    After downloading to Thunderbird:
    Email subject A from Sender A - email A
    Email subject B from Sender B - email B
    Email subject C from Sender C - email A *** Subject and Sender for C but is actually email A
    This started happening within the past month and appears to be random. Sometimes everything is correct. But more often there are a few that exhibit the above behavior. I have multiple email address downloading from the same domain but this problem seems to occur ostly with my main email account.

    Try to rebuild the index file of the troubled folder.
    Right-click the folder - Properties - Repair Folder

  • How to (once again) customize the Character Palette's Favorites pane?

    Way back in the dark days of OSX (wait, I think we're still then) I immediately found and had major use for the Character Palette (hooray for Unicode integration!). It has been indispensable in a wide variety of things, including Japanese document manipulation, music notation, subtitle generation in DSP, and mathematical formulae layouts.
    Early on it had an easy to operate customization for the favorites pane, so you could arrange the glyphs by category (great for Japanese punctuation symbols) or layout (very helpful in mathematics). However...
    That function seems to be long gone, and there is actually no useful help either under "Apple Help" or the Apple website for the Character Palette -- telling people how to access accented characters with it is something almost anybody can figure out in about 10 seconds, and that is pretty much the limit for help with the Character Palette.
    So, the question is, "*_is there any way to customize the layout of the Favorites pane any more?_*" This could include odd key-combos, hidden buttons, or even hacking the prefs file (which I am having a hard time finding, since there are thousands of pref files and hundreds of directories to search, and Spotlight refuses to look in the system areas -- still yearning for the return of Panther's "Find" function).
    Someone asked this question about a year ago, but got no response, so I will be very grateful for any help at all.
    --Thanks

  • Why are emails in public folders being marked as read when viewed in the viewing pane when I have disabled this in settings

    I am using office 2010 on a windows 7 PC. In outlook I have changed the settings for the reading pane so that emails are not marked as read unless I actually open them. This is working for emails in my inbox and outbox but not for emails in public
    folders. Emails in public folders are marked as read as soon as I click on them. Do public folders have a different setting for marking email as read in the reading pane?
    It is important for me that emails in the public folders are not marked as read when i click on them as I need to read through hundreds of project emails in these folders and need to be able to distinguish between emails I have read and actioned
    and emails I have just clicked on while searching for an email I need. This folder serves as an archive for my emails so i cant delete them once I have read them. I also don't have permission to label them or create tasks from them. 

    Hi,
    I tested in my lab, it worked for public folders. My Outlook version is Outlook 2013.
    Please open Outlook in safe mode to check result.
    If possible, please check if this issue persists from a different client server.
    Best regards,

  • Users are not able to save pdfs after editing - Adobe XI. They do not use the Win7 explorer preview pane.  If they completely close the Win7 explorer window, they can save - Adobe XI thinks the preview pane is open when it is not.

    Users are not able to save pdfs after editing.  Product is Adobe XI, OS is Win7 64-bit.  When saving, an error pops up that the file cannot be saved, it is in use.  If they save as a different name, it works.  Found several forums/blogs/etc that suggest the problem can be solved by closing the Window7 explorer preview pane.  They don't use the preview pane.  I figured out that if they completely close the explorer window, they can save.  But this means they have to open and close explorer for each file.

    Hi, I would like to chime in and say that this problem has not yet been resolved. It is extremely annoying when all I do is highlight a document in the file explorer and I get 5 errors (evenly spaced out about 20 seconds apart telling me that "Microsoft
    Word Cannot Start (24)". These errors persist even after windows explorer and word are closed. And I don't want to start terminating processes just to make them stop every time.
    I'm a little frustrated with this problem and the other problems I've encountered with MS Office 2013 with file corruption, crashing, 2010 compatibility issues, and the whole host of errors when trying to actually do WORK with Word.
    I do work with long, complex reports in Word because that's the best way available for myself (and my coworkers) to use. However, I sincerely regret upgrading to Office 2013 because of it. I love it, all of its features, and its interface, but I simply cannot
    use it without problems.

    Hi Danny,
    Per my understanding that you can't get the expect result by using the expression "=Count(Fields!TICKET_STATUS.Value=4) " to count the the TICKET_STATUS which value is 4, the result will returns the count of all the TICKET_STATUS values(206)
    but not 180, right?
    I have tested on my local environment and can reproduce the issue, the issue caused by you are using the count() function in the incorrect way, please modify the expression as below and have a test:
    =COUNT(IIF(Fields!TICKET_STATUS.Value=4 ,1,Nothing))
    or
    =SUM(IIF(Fields!TICKET_STATUS=4,1,0))
    If you still have any problem, please feel free to ask.

  • AWM: Can not see the synonyms in the mappings pane

    Hi, using the AWM 11.2.0.1.0A, in the mappings pane under the item Synonyms does not appear any synonyms although there are some of them (private synonyms) in the user's scheme.
    Any hint?
    Thanks.

    I just tried this in 11.2.0.1 and the synonym showed up in AWM. I ran the following (in the sample GLOBAL schema)
    create synonym prod_table for product_dim;
    Note that product_dim is a table in the GLOBAL schema, and I ran the above statement as GLOBAL.
    I then attached AWM as GLOBAL and saw prod_table show up in the synonyms folder of the mappings pane. What are you doing that is different from this?

  • I can not see the pictures in the photo pane

    I'm trying to see my pictures in the photo pane (the media section in iMovie) but I can not see them. I know that I have to have iPhoto 4 or later. I have iPhoto 6 but I can't still see the photos. Can you help me?????

    If deleting the pref files didn't help, then it's likely a problem in the iPhoto albumdata.xml file. This is the file that other apps must read to access your library. It usually goes bad due to a problem keyword in your library. Look for non-ascii characters in your keyword list. One user had an empty keyword that caused this problem.
    See Dave E.'s instructions on how to read the xml file to locate the problem keyword. If you find one, go into iPhoto's preferences to either edit or delete the problem keyword. http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=3870956&#3870956

    Do not delete the old account yet. sign up for an iCloud account if you haven't.
    I understand .mac mail will still come through. Do not delete the old account yet.
    You cannot use .mac or MobileMe as type of Account, you have to choose IMAP when setting up, otherwise Mail is hard coded to change imap.mail.me.com to mail.me.com & smtp.mail.me.com to smtp.me.com, no matter what you try to enter.
    iCloud Mail setup, do not choose .mac or MobileMe as type, but choose IMAP...
    On second step where it asks "Description", it has to be a unique name, but you can still use your email address.
    IMAP (Incoming Mail Server) information:
              •          Server name: imap.mail.me.com
              •          SSL Required: Yes
              •          Port: 993
              •          Username: [email protected] (use your @me.com address from your iCloud account)
              •          Password: Your iCloud password
    SMTP (outgoing mail server) information:
              •          Server name: smtp.mail.me.com
              •          SSL Required: Yes
              •          Port: 587
              •          SMTP Authentication Required: Yes
              •          Username: [email protected] (use your @me.com address from your iCloud account)
              •          Password: Your iCloud password
    Also, you must upgrade your password to meet the new criteria:  8 characters, including upper and lower case and numbers.  If you have an older password that does not meet these criteria, when you try to setup mail on your mac, using all of the IMAP criteria listed above, it will still give a server error message.  Go to   http://appleid.apple.com         then follow directions to change your password, then go back to setting up your mail using the IMAP instructions above.
