Does LifeCycle Manager move Xcelsius XLF file?

Does anybody know if LifeCycle Manager will migrate Xcelsius, and if so, will internal Qaaws queries be recognized as dependencies, and will the server pointer be changed according to the mapping that is established? The LCM documentation includes Xcelsius under "reports" and indicates it can be migrated, but we have not had any luck.
This is how I have tried to get LCM to migrate the XLF file: (1) I saved the XLF file to the platform that is our development CMS; (2) The system admins tried to migrate the XLF file using LCM; it didn't work. LCM did not even put the XLF file into the production CMS.
I do not know if this is a functional challenge with LCM (lcm does not migrate xcelsius and does not change internal pointers in Qaaws) or if it is a specific problem with our installation and/or files.
Any help would be appreciated. Thank you!

Hi,
LCM supports Xcelsius promotion, however its dependencies are not computed automatically.
You need to manually select the QaaWS object used by it and update its properties.

Managing movie files on a MBP

Until the last month or so, I've used a powermac G5 as my computer. Now that I've added a shiny new MBP with a 750 gb drive, I'm having all the normal growing pains that come with such. Amazed with the speed boost, having to learn to deal with big time limitations on storage.
Right now, I'm trying to figure out managing movie files. Up until now, I upload most if not all my movie files from my iPhone or Canon 7d into iPhoto. Then later, open iMovie and it "sees" them and does what it does and so forth. Basically, I was using iPhoto and iMovie to handle movie files.
Now that I'm using a MBP, I don't know that I'm going to continue using the powermac G5. Not much, anyways. The speed is way to amazing with the MBP. Not only that, I'm using Aperture 3 for managing pics and it happens to upload videos. I posted in the Ap3 community a similar question regarding managing movies with my current setup.
Should I turn off the import movies option for Ap3 and only use iMovie to continue to manage movie files?
considering movie files, which are primarily HD ones for me now, I have iPhoto, iMovie, and now Ap3 that I can import movies to. If i were using a big desktop macPro with tons of HD space, I really wouldn't think much about hard drive space.
However, now that I'm entering the world of laptop computing for the first time, managing disk space (as you all know) is a specialty all its own, I'm learning quickly. As far as Aperture is concerned, I referenced all my masters off the HD inside the MBP onto an external drive so I can free up some space. I freed up almost 400 gbs!
Now I'm looking at how to manage movie files on a MBP.
Real world example: went to a concert last night, filmed over 2 hours of movie files of the concert. Before I import them off my iPhone, I'm wondering where in the world to import them to. iPhoto? iMovie? Ap3?
What do you all suggest I do with a MBP and managing movie files? Should I continue with importing to iPhoto and letting iMovie then "see" them and do it's thing? Or should I get another external FW800 drive and start using it just for movie files?
What would you long term users of laptops suggest as the best long term approach to managing movie files (which program, internal Vs external, etc) on a macbookpro?
Thanks

It won't take too much time for your hard drive to fill up with movies you've processed through Aperture or iMovie. Many users opt to dedicate an external hard drive for their movie projects, and I can recommend the G-Drive and Seagate Go Drive for speed and reliability. I don't own OWC drives, but they're rated well, too. A one-TB drive will keep you going for a long time.
Process your movies as little as possible. Depending on he content, you can lose a little every time you transfer the data. Use a single format to manage your documents, since this will minimize conversion. Your process flow seems to rely on iMovie to manage movies.

Xcelsius 2008 5.4.0.0 - XLF file - All components missing/blank canvas

xcelsius 2008 5.4.0.0 build 12,4,0,1166 --
working on a xlf file - save it -- go to reopen it and get a blank canvas -- look in object browser and ALL objects are missing - none showing
did the resedit thing removing the en file --
rebooted windows and xcelsius several times
tried to go into preview mode -- nothing there
tried doing an export to html and viewing html -- nothing there
other observations --indicating it may not be the "typical flash" issue
#1 - other XLF files open and objects are there and act and behave normally
#2 - other html files etc all operate fine
somehow something is corrupted - had a wierd thing when i started up - it showed the split screen components were there etc -- but then the program seemed to crash - and then the sap window came up and it started up again - there might have been a warning that it was busy or retry or something -- that is the only thing i noticed
using newer components -- bubble chart - but nothing really out of the ordinary
please help - would hate to rebuild -- DO have the underlying data in xlf and exported it to xls so im safe there
thanks

With SP1 and FP3 this issue is resolved. Closing thread.

Does not play mov file in fcp x smothlly

few days back i shoot with xdcam, but i didnot know that time i need all the files to do editing in fcpx so i delet all support files n just copy the main video file which is in mp4 fermat.
then after i try to import that file in fcp x which doesnot work n i convert that file into mov format. then after i could manage to import the file in fcp x but now when i try to play thoes clips, it doesnot play well. its like frame drop or like stop sec by sec i dont know what happen?
plz somebody canhelp me with this. im really tried with this problume

midnightraj said he had converted the mp4 movie to mov, and that this mov file played (albeit dropping frames) inside FCP X, so my perspective was in working with content thas was already inside FCP X.
I have no specific knowledge of xdcam, and it may well be that using the xdcam transfer tool is the best choice.

LifeCycle Manager: The kind 'Note' does not exist in the CMS

Hi there,
I'm trying to promote a Crystal Report from one relatively fresh XI 3.1 environment to another fresh XI 3.1 environment (TEST to PROD) using LifeCycle Manager, and for this report, which has no dependencies, I get the following error when I do a Test Promote or actual Promote:
Commit Status=Commit attempted and failed, Promotion Status=Failure : com.businessobjects.lcm.utilities.LCMException: com.businessobjects.sdk.biar.exception.XSDException$UnknownKindException: The kind 'Note' does not exist in the CMS. (FWM 04030)
Has anyone encountered anything similar to this? I can't find any InfoObject that logically relates to the type/kind 'Note'. Perhaps it has to do with discussions?
Thanks,
Allan

Hi,
Can you try promoting it with the security option enabled.
Based on the error condition it seems that the discussion plugin does not exist in the destination system.

MW64, cs6 bridge when I move or copy files the context menu does not retain recent folder destinations after I close the program

W64, cs6 bridge when I move or copy files the context menu does not retain recent folder destinations after I close the program. The context options that show are the ones from original install. The workspace I set up is also gone. I have every explorer box and cleaner checked to save recent. Had to disable nivedia desktop software because of weird display conflict. Have Dell pro support and they cannot fix. Any ideas to help me with this would be appreciated.

Self-solved! I work in column view in Finder so get there in a Finder window with folders and files appearing.
There really is no problem, just select an ITEM in the COLUMN before right-clicking!
The "old" context menu will appear. If you click in the white space in that column (or anywhere in a Finder window) and then place the cursor over a folder or file WITHOUT selecting it and right-click you will bring up the secondary context menu - Open, Copy, Duplicate, View Options and a greyed out Labels option. No "Move to Trash".

IDVD version 7.0.3 (1110) does not support .mov files???

After the last software update (01.26.09) I can't open my projects made with iDVD 7.0.2 just some days before the update. While opening an old project I receive system message about lost video files. When I try to drag this files manually, I receive message: Unsupported File Type: Broken Reference Movie in: 'name of my .mov file. Meanwhile, the files are on the same place as before.
Is somebody here who have met this problem? What to do? How to come back to previous iDVD version?

Yes iDvd does still supports .mov
However, it's a QT Reference movie you are dealing with and anytime you move this file from it's original location you'll confuse iDvd. The solution is to re-establish the link so that it's no longer a broken link.
iDvd should give the option via a dialog box to find that particular asset before it proceeds any futher. Is it not offering you this option?

Why does importing a .Mov file almost triple it's file size?

I have a Kodak Zx1 which is not recognised by iMovie (Kodak's fault I assume as there are no drivers etc. available for the Mac).
To get my movies into iMovie I download them onto the Mac hard drive and then import them into iMovie 09 using "Import" - "Movies from the "file" menu. I then opt for "optimize video" - and "full-original size". The files import with no problems but almost triple in size...eg 29meg to 84meg....does anyone know why?
Incidentally not ticking the "optimize video" option does import the movie with an identical file size .... however.... the movie playback is very jerky in the movie viewer pane ...again, does anybody know why?
Thanks in advance everyone.

does anybody know why?
In simple terms, in order to edit your footage, iMovie needs a certain amount of data about each frame.
In the compressed form stored on the all the necessary data isn't present, so the missing pieces have to be filled back in to allow you to edit. This process increases the file size.
Once you've edited your movie it can then be re-compressed.

Does migration assistant move files or copy them?

I'm running Yosemite on a separate partition. I want to copy some of my information from 10.6.8, but I want to leave 10.6.8 intact, as it is still (and will remain for quite some time) my primary operating system. Does migration assistant move the information, or copy it?

It will copy info and won't delete anything from the originating drive. If you are just looking to copy some files, log back into the 10.6.8 and copy them to the user desktop account of the other drive.
If you are looking to migrate a user account, be aware that the account name will need to be different than the one you are currently using in Yosemite.

HT3842 Does iTunes store the original music file and copy it into a separate folder? If i delete the original file from finder will it remove it from my iTunes library?

Hi, on my last PC when transferring music to my new MacBook Pro i noticed i had about 6 duplicated of each song in every album i took hours in removing them.
I Just wondered Does iTunes store the original music file and then copy it into a separate folder?
If i delete the original file from finder will it remove it from my iTunes library or vice versa. I didnt want to lose any music like i have some how managed to on my old computer.
Or should i keep both files of it in the Music folder and also iTunes library folder?
Which is best ?

DrewPowell wrote:

It does both at the same time.
When you add files to iTunes, it copies them into /Music/iTunes/iTunes media/ folder. The original file remains where it was.
You can drag a file to /Music/iTunes/iTunes media/Automatically add to iTunes/ folder.
This will add to iTunes and move it to /Music/iTunes/iTunes media/.
I keep a shortcut of this folder on my desktop then simply drag files to the shortcut to add to iTunes.
Then there are no "extra" files around.

What does this message mean? : "The file name "DSC_0088.jpg" is offline or missing." ?

What does this message mean? : "The file name "DSC_0088.jpg" is offline or missing." I am in the process of importing photos from iPhoto (don't really know what I'm doing....) and when I look at one of the imported photos that message pops up. I know what "DSC_0088.jpg" is. I don't know what it means that the file is "missing".

CASpyr,
Thank you so much for your reply. I have a couple of bigger issues that I am dealing with: too many photos on my laptop: 40,000! (Of course I have to throw away many of them, but that is time consuming). I have a MacBook Pro and have primarily used IPhoto. I have recently purchased 2 external drives and have transferred my photos to those, but I need a basic education about how photos are stored, copied, etc. I have recently been told that iPhoto only shows and deals with jpegs, not RAW. About 1/3 of my photos are RAW, so I purchased Lightroom, so I could do more with those RAW photos. I have been told by my local Mac store that I need to delete most of my photos from iPhoto, because it's causing problems. I am reluctant to do so until I am sure that all of the keywords, descriptions and editing I have done to these photos is not lost when deleted from iPhoto. I just watched a tutorial about importing to Lightroom and got out of it that I needed to copy photos from iPhoto to a file on my desktop and then copy to Lightroom. I did that, it seemed to work. Then (because of my storage/memory issues) I deleted the photos (just a few as an experiment) from that desktop file. I'm guessing that is why Lightroom doesn't recognize the the photos. It seems that (learned from another tutorial) that one uses "Add" , Lightroom is only connecting to the source of the photo, not actually copying it to the program. Sounds like I need to use the "Move" feature instead. My ultimate goal is to store the photos on the 2 external drives and eliminate most of them from my lapop. So my basic questions have to do with what data (metadata??) is copied from iPhoto to an external drive (RAW???) and what isn't copied. Basic understanding issues,obviously…. I hope this isn't too much to ask. If you can recommend a book or resource that can explain those basic issues to me I'd appreciate it. I just got back from a trip and I can't download my new photos until I manage the rest!
Thanks,
Nancy

Not allowed to move (only copy) files within Shared Folder (yes, permissions are set to Read/Write)

I have moved my media (Music, Movies, Pictures) to the Users/Shared folder. As I'm doing some cleanup in these folders, I am trying to move several folders/files at once, all within the same Shared folder. I have confirmed that the permissions settings under "Get Info" are set to "Read/Write" and I have verified and repaired permissions with Disk Utility. However, every move I try to do is a copy. I have tried the Command-Drag method, but I'm still left with the green plus sign indicating a copy.
On smaller files/folders, this wouldn't matter so much as I would copy, then just delete the original. But I'm dealing with many, many gigs of music and my HD doesn't have space for holding copies, even if the originals will be deleted.
Very frustrating to have to spend so much time to figure out what would seem to be a very basic file management feature.
I've searched and read and searched some more, but I'm stuck. Thanks to any who can help.

Do have file sharing and remote login checked

BINGO!!!! Problem solved. Many thanks!!!

Problem in opening XLF file

Hi,
I had created a dashboad. I am now not able to open the file. Gives an error "Crystal xcelsius is unable to load this file. This file may be corrupt or have features that cannot be supported by this version of crystal reports". Then gives an error "Problem Accessing Excel: Exiting" and then it throws me out.
I have tried
1. giving 'Full control' to 'everyone' for MS Office.
2. Re-installing Xcelsius
Still it doesn't work.
Note: Other XLF files opens without any problem.
Can anyone suggest solution for this problem?
Thanks & Regards,
RashmiG

Rashmi,
It seems the problem lies with the fact that you are trying to open the xlf created on a higher version product in a lower one. Please check this.
... or there are two instances of excel open in the background, one of which can be killed through the Task Manager.
Otherwise, you can call the support guys and they can check for any other incompatibilities.
Best Luck!!!

How does one manage these new render setting for previews?

I placed 4 HD clips from a nested into a sequence 5800 x 768 to mimic 4 side by side monitors for a multi channel video. Each clip cut from the sequence are at 1280x720 all sitting side by side. However when I rendered the previews, they came look all squished. However when I exported the frame it looks fine in Photoshop. (I changed the uploaded image to what it looks like in Premiere in Photoshop to demonstrate the appearance in Premiere.)
I imagine that the distortion has to do with the sequence render setting which for some reason comes out to 1918 x 253...or the pixel aspect ratio? How does one manage these new render setting for previews so it looks normal in the monitor?


Either way, I thought that this format would be a great way to view on the monitor 4 channels at the same time. I may need to place them on a “normal” 1440 x 1080 sequence in a line, bringing them down to 25% scale to make it work in the end. I did just try that. I think it will work...but when I imported and nested the old file, the scratch disks changed from the original set up on a D drive back to the main hard drive so I had to change it agin. Otherwise it works fine...so I’ll go with this for now
These are the instructions I was given.I attched a screen save of the AE file they asked me to use (They must be on vacation, because I have not been able to get hold of them). I don't know After Effects very well:
“As you begin creating or adapting work for e4c, you may find an After Effects template developed for this system to be helpful. Attached you'll see a zipped file with two AE templates. There is some detailed information (below) from the artist that developed these for us. In addition, a few bits of information that might help you along are:
·        The "Watchout" playback system can support WMV or a QuickTime files . We like .mov files with H.264 codec best!
·        The end resolution of the four screens is 5120 x 720 pixels (1280x720 each).
·        If works are four-channel, please provide a separate audio (aiff) file so it doesn't slow any one video down.”
Thanks for your help!

Is it possible to move the temporary files and history settings folder to a second drive in Firefox 6.0, windows 7?

<blockquote>Locking duplicate thread.<br>
Please continue here: [[/questions/881940]]</blockquote>
Internet Explorer 8 has this feature under the Internet Options heading. Does the Firefox 6.0 have a similar feature for placing all or part of the browsing history on a drive other than the one containing the operating system?

You can use the Profile Manager to create a profile folder on the other drive.<br />
You can't move only specific files.<br />
Be sure to select a new and empty folder to be used exclusively as profile folder.<br />
