Does LR2 Include a "Real" help file?

I am woriking with the trial versionof LR2, and one of the problems is that there seems to be no resident version of a help file.
Two problems with this. First, getting bounced to a Q&A forum is a VERY inefficient way to answer my routine questions. Second, my main photoediting computer is not connected routinely to the internet--So in effect I have no help file at all.
Am I missing something really simple? Is this an issue related only to the trial version, i.e. will I get a real help file when I complete a purchase? Or is this sorry state of affairs something I'll have to live with if I stay with LR2?

Say what? A help file doesn't change (significantly) during the life of a product. When I download version 1.4.1 I expect a properly documented program to include a proper help file. When I download Version 2.0 it should come with a NEW help file that is good (with hopefully minor corrections) until version 2.1, etc.
If software is being properly designed, specified, and documented, you should be able to write 99.8% of the help file even before the coding is complete. There is no excuse for shortcutting the help file other than not employing enough technical writers.
I am used to Microsoft saying "If you don't like it, lump it", but it is a new experience from Adobe.
Even the online help is pretty lame. No wonder it is "expected" that I have to go to a discussion forum to get real answers. This might be hard for the techno-geeks to understnad, but I don't want to join an online community, I JUST want a photoediting program!

Content panel does not work in Online Help file

Using Robohelp 10: When the help file is opened from application, the correct help page is shown on the right hand side but in the Contents panel the Title page item is selected. The content panel does not work.

Hi
I think you have not enabled the Folders_g component on UCM .
Enable the component from Administration - Admin Server - Component Manager and then restart UCM server .
Then test to see if the issue still persists .
Thanks

FB4 Beta2 does not include swz files

When compiling a release Build, FB4 does not include the smaller swz files but bigger swf files (e. g. framework_4.0.0.10945.swf) instead. The swz files where included only a few time at the beginning of the project.
I need to finish this project with the 4.0.0.10945 SDK.
How can I let FB4 Beta 2 include and link to the framework etc. swz files?
Thanks,
David

Hi,
For the moment I would suggest that you use 'merge into code' rather than runtime libraries. After flashbuilder is released I would assume that the runtime libraries will be available online through Adobe, then it makes sense for applications that are used on a regular basis to use cached libraries, right now everytime you change a build you will also have a new set of libraries to upload/download, along with issues of libraries getting mixed up. SO rather than having to be concerend about a bunch of libraries being stored in the flashplayer cache you only have a single swf to think about.
David.

The jar size value in the Application Descriptor does not match the real ja

Hi,
when i creat obfuscated package for my application It's posing the
Error preverifying class A
Class loading error: Wrong name
The jar size value in the Application Descriptor does not match the real jar file size.
It's perfectly working for all the other applications .I tried to change the jar size in the jad file but it's not working.

Yes, the obfuscator does not change the size value after finishing. You have to do it yourself.

Help files never work

Does anyone know why my "help" files never seem to work? for instance in Mail I click on help to look for an answer and I get the same message every time.
Here it is:
The selected topic is currently unavailable
Make sure you’re connected to the Internet. For help connecting, choose Apple menu > System Preferences, click Network, and click “Assist me.”
If you’re connected to the Internet, and the content still doesn’t appear, try again later.
I've went into Preferences made sure my firewall is set correctly, tinkered around in there but cannot find a fix anywhere. This is getting frustrating.
Can anyone please help??
Thank you,
Tony

What exactly do you want help in? Help is Application specific. So Mail has to be the Application on the top, i.e., you should see Mail next to the Apple logo on the top left of your screen. If you then click on Help, you'll get Help related to Mail. At least thats how it is supposed to work ... unless you have a problem.

Text messages, MMS messages, email, music catalog, operating system settings, safari cache, siri cache, Genius data (if enabled), game center data -- esentially everything on your phone that isn't explicitely listed in the bar chart at the bottom of iTunes on your computer.
Sometimes there is also data corruption on the phone that ends up in Other. To get rid if it try restoring the phone with iTunes. If that makes no difference the corruption is in your backup; restore again as a new phone, then add content back.

Saved pdf file does not include filled in text

i am using adobe acrobat pro; trail version. I can fill in a fillable pdf file but after saving the file and then emailing the filethe received email attachment does not include my text included in the pdf form?

It most likely does include it in the form, but the PDF viewer that's being used does not display it. If the user were to use Adobe Reader/Acrobat, the form data should appear as expected. The default PDF viewer that mobile devices and some browsers use don't have sufficient support for forms.
If the recipient does not need to interact with the form fields, you can flatten the form before sending it out. This converts the form field appearances to regular page content, so it will very likely appear fine in most any PDF viewer. Post again if you need help flattening form fields using Acrobat.

Simulate Acquisition does not include new image file created after first call

For example, I have 5 images in a folder.
I call Simulate Acquisition.
It cycles through all 5 images.
Now If I include 1 more image it does not include this image in the "cycle". I need to reload this step by clicking Main\path\browse button and select any image in the folder and then it cycles through all 6 images.
Is there anyway to automatically include new images added to the folder after the step has been created?
Thanks.

Here's a sample inspection and VI to illustrate how you could do this. I used an image variable and passed this into the Run LV step so the VI could read the file and update the image variable and then I used the Select Image step to get the image variable into the VBAI script so you can process it. I also added a delete option in the VI so you can delete the previous image when you read the next available image. Make sure to go to the Setup State and initialize the path variable to where your image files will live (to access the Setup State, go to View>>View Complete Inspection and select on the Setup option on the left hand side. I initialized it to c:\Image Folder
Hope this helps,
Brad

Wht does lv7 help files for DAQmx lockup?

I am trying to obtain help for the DAQmx vis in LV7 and the help files "hang", take for ever to load and sometimes lockup LabVIEW. Also, when they do load, the pull down selector does not work properly and causes the help file to lockup. Is there a fix for this problem?

If you are currently running NI-DAQ 7.0 or 7.1, download NI-DAQ 7.1. This new installation will include new help documentation that will overwrite the existing files on your machine which may be corrupted. Here is a link to the NI-DAQ 7.1 download page: http://digital.ni.com/softlib.nsf/websearch/C1F802E457EA042586256DD00001B0C9?opendocument&node=132060_US

My win8 pc hard drive failed. After the hard drive was replaced, I copied iTunes Media backupfiles from external hard drive (Karen's Replicator backup software was used). ITunes does not recognize these back up files even though the location is the same as cloud & recently burned music that does show- help! The backup files consist of 34,000+ songs; almost all burned from my own CD collection. I do have most of the songs on an ipod classic but hesitate to try to restore from that. Can someone tell me how to get these 34,000 songs to show up in iTunes? Thanks!!

This diagram shows how a typical iTunes library ought to be set out (click on it to enlarge)
The red outline highlights the media folder and its contents, the various subfolders are only created if that kind of content is in your library. The right-hand side shows the files that should be found in the iTunes library folder; sentinel is normally hidden so may not be visible. The core of your iTunes library is the file iTunes Library.itl, you need to restore this, the other library files and the Album Artwork folder, as well as the media folder, to restore your library.

I've encountered this error myself upon occasion. If I remember correctly, it was a permissions/ownership issue with the some of the files I was copying.

How to include help file in application

Hello,
i developed an application using java swing. i need to include help file in my application. How to include it?
Thanks,
Sri

Hi Sri,
Use Java Help....
There is some thing called as Help set. In a button action listener u have to call that.
HelpSet helpSet = getHelpSet("path");
HelpBroker helpBroker = helpSet.createHelpBroker();
CSH.setHelpIDString (jButton,"filename");
jButton.addActionListener(new CSH.DisplayHelpFromSource(helpBroker));

Need to include help file

Hello,
Can anyone give me advice on how to include a help file in our web-start project?
It's currently a .chm (we can generate other formats too, I think. I just need to know which one!) that executes via hh.exe, but this has obvious drawbacks, the primary one is that it won't run from the jar file.
What's the standard way of including help documentation in a java app?
Thanks! --- Eric

I've started with JavaHelp, we'll see where that leads. Seems to be a better solution than .chm files.

How can I get a count of files in a directory that does not include subfolders?

Information [Comand I] gives me an "items" number that includes subfolders; however, Box gives me a number that excludes subfolders and includes only files. I am trying to double check that I have migrated everything from a local directory to a Box; thus, I would like a way to a count of just the number of files in a local directory that does not include subfolders but rather is limited to files. This has been surprisingly hard to find.
Thanks,
Stu

Sort the contents of the folder by Kind. While holding down the Shift key click on the first and last file and start to drag them. The number of the files being dragged will be displayed in a red circle.
Not elegant but works.
