Doing an internal Mac adjustment for reading/writing to NTFS HD

I am doing an internal setup using Terminal to allow my MacBook Pro 13(late 2012) OS X 10.8 to be able to read/write from a Seagate Backup Plus external HD that is formatted in NTFS. I have seen the instructions given from this site: http://www.avioc.com/blog/ntfs-read-write-support-on-mountain-lion
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Here is what you should do:
Uninstall other 3rd-party NTFS software, like Paragon, Tuxera or NTFS-3G.
Edit /etc/fstab (you can do this with "sudo nano /etc/fstab"
Add the following line:
LABEL="VOLUME_NAME_WITHOUT_QUOTES" none ntfs rw,auto,nobrowse
Quit your editor (if you used nano, you can do this with Control-X, Y)
Reboot, or if you prefer just unmount and re-mount the partition using Disk Utility
Voila! You have read-write support for this partition in OSX
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
I can access the Terminal function and can enter the written text shown...however, I am not sure which 'Volume' they are asking for when it says "VOLUME_NAME_WITHOUT_QUOTES" ...is it the Mac HD or the Seagate external HD..and do I also include the _ in the written text line ?
Then when the GNU nano 2.0.6 File: /etc/fstab window comes up and I enter: LABEL="VOLUME_NAME_WITHOUT_QUOTES" none ntfs rw,auto,nobrowse
in this box, I can't quit the editor as it shows:
Quit your editor (if you used nano, you can do this with Control-X, Y) so I am unable to reboot to finish the process.
How do I do that quitting to be able to reboot and finish?
And finally...do I have the Seagate external HD attached while doing this change ?
Thanks,
rl

Did you check for updates from http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/product.jsp?product=1&platform=Macintosh? You can download updates to Acrobat there. You should generally install the updates in order unless indicated otherwise.
However, it may be that what is being sent to Distiller is the problem, not Distiller itself. What is the error message? How are you creating the input for Distiller? I am not quite sure about the steps on a MAC since I use a PC, but at least these questions should help track down the problem. If you can post the full text of the error (or a screen shot), it would help.

TIFF-VIs for reading/writing from/to files

To whom it may concern,
I'm looking for TIFF-VIs for reading/writing from/to files
for Labview 6 without any add-on package.
Unfortunately I can't use TiffRd04 and TiffSv05 from
Koji Ohashi due to the different file format!
Any hints?
Thank you in advance. Best regards from Germany

Hi Udo,
did you check these TIFF related libraries? .. maybe one of them is working.
Good Luck

I had the same problem. SUN support recommends latest kernel patches. That solved my problem.

Wanted: Lua code for reading / writing TIF, DNG, and/or NEF files.

Anybody?
Thx,

Remains to be seen - what I'm doing is pretty narrow in scope.

If I remember correctly, LR writes this data into those data into the files if you press Strg + S or if you configure LR to write allways into the xmp files. If this does not work for you, perhaps http://www.sno.phy.queensu.ca/~phil/exiftool/ or http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/thankyou.jsp?ftpID=4529&fileID=4219 can provide more options to you.
Having Lr do it for me wouldn't work, but calling exiftool and harvesting the return stuff from stdout may be better than what I'm doing now - thanks.

Call me conservative, but I'm really not a fan of writing in these files. It might work with and SDK, but I think there is no public SDK for it.
In addition I think it is not possible to translate LRs Development-Settings into NX Settings and NX Settings into LR. By updateing the preview you just have a preview with wrong parameters. Sounds week to me. But I would be glad if you can convince that I am wrong.
Most people think I'm crazy. There is no support in the Nikon-SDK for it, but all I need to update is the main rgb image - nothing else.

Permissions to external Jar for reading-writing on a file

hi all,
I explain my situation.
I ' ve made an open source project similar to plpdf using jasper report libraries and others.
My project, which works perfectly in a java jre, have some problems in Oracle Aurora jvm.
I use the Reflection technique to load the classes from their libraries.
For this i use this class :
{color:#993300}import java.io.File;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.lang.reflect.Constructor;
import java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException;
import java.lang.reflect.Method;

import java.net.URL;
import java.net.URLClassLoader;
* @author g.veltro
public class Utility {
public final static ClassLoader sysloader = ClassLoader.getSystemClassLoader();
public static Object createIstance (Class classe,Object [] parameters,Class [] parametersClasses) throws InstantiationException, IllegalAccessException, NoSuchMethodException, IllegalArgumentException, InvocationTargetException{
Constructor cons = classe.getConstructor(parametersClasses);
return cons.newInstance(parameters);
public static Object executeMethod(Object obj,Class objClass,String methodName,Object [] parameters,Class [] parametersClasses) throws IllegalAccessException, IllegalArgumentException, InvocationTargetException, NoSuchMethodException {
Method method = objClass.getDeclaredMethod(methodName,parametersClasses);
method.setAccessible(true);
return method.invoke(obj, parameters);
public static void addJarLibrary(String s) throws MalformedURLException, IOException{ addJarLibrary(new File(s)); }
public static void addJarLibrary(File f) throws MalformedURLException, IOException{ addJarLibrary(f.toURI().toURL()); }
public static void addJarLibrary(URL url) throws IOException{
URLClassLoader urlsysloader = null;
urlsysloader = (URLClassLoader) sysloader;
try { executeMethod(urlsysloader,URLClassLoader.class,"addURL",new Object[]url,new Class[]{URL.class});
} catch (Throwable t) { t.printStackTrace(); throw new IOException("Error, could not add "+url.getPath()+" to system classloader"); }
public static void addJarLibraries(String libDir) throws IOException {
File directory = null;
directory = new File(libDir);
if(directory.isDirectory()){
JarFilter filter = new JarFilter();
File[] jarLibraries = directory.listFiles(filter);
for(int i=0;i<jarLibraries.length;i++){ addJarLibrary(jarLibraries{color}{color:#993300});
} else { throw new IOException(libDir+" is not a Directory !"); }
{color}
I gave all the permissions as dba to allow java to access files, etc. etc
{color:#993300}Begin
dbms_java.grant_permission( 'NEOGEO', 'SYS:java.lang.RuntimePermission', 'accessDeclaredMembers', '' );
dbms_java.grant_permission( 'NEOGEO', 'SYS:java.lang.reflect.ReflectPermission', 'suppressAccessChecks', '' );
end;
{color}
Then when I try to call a class library that attempts to access a file residing in the file-system i recive an exception.
This is an example of code that call a class and execute one methods.
{color:#993300}public static Object compileJrxml(String path_file_jrxml) throws ClassNotFoundException, InstantiationException, IllegalAccessException, IllegalArgumentException, InvocationTargetException, NoSuchMethodException {

jcmClass = Class.forName("net.sf.jasperreports.engine.JasperCompileManager",true,org.Reflection.Utility.sysloader);
jCompileManager = jcmClass.newInstance();
// compilazione del report
jReport = Utility.executeMethod(jCompileManager,jcmClass,"compileReport",params,paramsClasses);
return jReport;
{color}
this is the exception :

The problem i think is that i have to give the permission for input and output on files to an external jar-library .
I don't know how i can resolve this problem ....
Do you have any suggestions? 

Hi,
the problem with grant_permission is, that this can be done for a schema or a role - not for a ProtectionDomain as you need.
Some on this forum claim that it is possible to control the SecurityManager by the java.policy file in OH/javavm/lib/security. You should try to put something like this in this file (create it if it doesn’t exist)
grant codeBase "file:/<your codebase>" {
permission java.security.<your privilege>;
Unfortunately this doesn't worked for me in 11.1.0.6.0.
What you could try if you don't find other solution is to extend or write your own (not recommended) SecurityManager.
see http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B28359_01/java.111/b31225/chten.htm#BABJBJGE
To simple see if your application runs without security you can try the NullSecurityManager.
see http://java.sun.com/developer/onlineTraining/Security/Fundamentals/magercises/SecurityManager/help.html
compile and load the class in your schema and activate it with
System.setSecurityManager(new NullSecurityManager());
This is for sure not a solution for a productive system.

Does Measurement Studio offer much for someone writing a basic control system?

I'm trying to weigh whether the added cost (and bulk) of Measurement Studio would be worth it for me vs simply using the free DAQmx libraries.
My application wouldn't have any need for the custom controls offered by MS nor the advanced libraries. All the application is doing is monitoring a handful of digital and analog inputs, reacting to them, and setting a handful of digital inputs. No high speed measurements, waveforms, etc. Probably the highest priority I/O may get updated every 50-100 ms.
I'm mainly wondering if MS offers anything over the DAQmx libraries when it comes to working with I/O asynchronously (which seems like the proper way to approach a responsive machine control application).

This an interesting question and I don't have a great answer. I hope someone comes along and explains the issue clearly.
I like having all of Measurement Studio because I depend on Visa for the instrument libraries (scopes, meters, power supplies etc.). I don't want to write an entire communication library from scratch.
For just basic IO though I'm not sure what Measurement Studio actually brings to the table. Since I've always had the entire package (Measurement Studio Enterprise Edition I believe) I don't know which features are available outside of Measurement Studio.
Did you mention that you are working with NI hardware? If not, then maybe Measurement Studio buys you even less. When working with NI hardware NI MAX (Measurement and Automation eXplorer) makes it so simple. Just plug in a USB device and give it an alias in MAX like TS_Light and you can talk to it with :
using (var t = new Task())
 Thread.Sleep(10);
 // Create full device name based on fixture platform passed into constructor
 const string strDevice = "TS_Light/port0";
 // Setup Task
 t.DOChannels.CreateChannel(
 strDevice,
 ChannelLineGrouping.OneChannelForAllLines);
 // Create a write stream and send out the desired Value
 var writer = new DigitalSingleChannelWriter(t.Stream);
 // Convert port value to bool array
 var boolArray = new bool[8];
 for (int i = 0; i < 8; i++)
 boolArray[i] = Convert.ToBoolean((portValue >> i) & 0x01);
 t.Start();
 writer.WriteSingleSampleMultiLine(false, boolArray);
It looks a little complicated but it is the same flow for all NiDaqMx Tasks.
Again, I realize that I'm not answering your direct question of what does MS really bring to you when you are doing such a simple IO project. I wonder however if you will ever be doing a similar project again soon? And then maybe you will want to add some support for instrument automation and data collection? When you look at doing multiple projects, even simple ones, the cost of Measurement Studio starts to look like a better investment in my opinion.
Good luck with your project!

Cannot find Mac EULA for Reader

Hi,
I am trying to read PDFs using Acrobat reader in Chrome. When I open a PDF it says: Before viewing PDF documents in this browser you musty launch Adobe Reader and accept the End User License Agreement, then Quit and relaunch the browser.
However, when I open Reader by itself, it happily views PDFs. How to accept the EULA or tell the browser plugin that I have accepted the EULA?

It won't matter. Using the pdf plug-in in Chrome on a Mac is not supported.
Compatible web browsers and PDFMaker applications

Options for read/write form field data with VBA/Reader

I have a project which requires reading and writing field data to a PDF form using VBA in PowerPoint. The code I have works properly with the full version of Acrobat, but the client this project is for will be using Reader. I'm looking for suggestions to what options I have to be able to access the form field data (I don't need any other features other than access to the field data). Ideally, I would love a solution which doesn't require the client to install anything extra for this to work, but I'm assuming that this isn't possible without an extra install.
Is there a library that exists in Reader (or could be licensed to be installed on the client's machine) that would allow the data to be read without needing the full version of Acrobat?
Does a plug-in exist for Reader, or could be written, that would allow this? Writing a plug-in would certainly be beyond my current capabilities, but I am interested in knowing every and any choices that are available.
Are there any other options to do what I need to do?
I had originally thought about exporting the form data and parsing it in the VBA program, but this would take a bit more work to write the parsing routine instead of accessing the fields directly. Plus, it appears to me that Exporting is not enabled in Reader.
Thanks for any insight you may be able to provide.

Thanks for the response; this was my original suggestion, but I don't think this is feasable for our client. I suggested to our account people that this might be the only way to do this (and the easiest, although possibly the costliest since it would have to be purchased for their entire sales force) and they initially said that this would not be an option, so I wanted to be able to cover all the bases, and explore any other ways that they could do what they want. Is this the absolute only option to do this?
Someone also suggested to me that licensing the Acrobat PDF Library SDK might be a way to do this, or that it could possibly be done with a plug-in for Reader (although from what I have found, Reader plug-ins would have to be approved by Adobe). These options, if possible, are beyond my current knowledge but I do want to be able to give them a complete list of possibilities.
Thanks again.

Reading & writing from MS Excel files in Webdynpro ABAP

Dear experts,
We have a requirement to read and write from an MS excel file in a Webdynpro ABAP based application. The application would be deployed on WAS (Web Application Server) which is running as part of SAP ECC on UNIX platform.
What is not clear is
1) If we store the MS Excel template on the server which has UNIX, will the file be recognised for reading/writing programmatically in Webdynpro ABAP? If this works, we have a requirement where the end users will download the excel template and upload the same after filling data into the excel file. The data filled into the excel has to be read and updated in the SAP backend (ECC).
2) There is an article on "Modifying Excel using WD ABAP" at the following link
https://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/WDABAP/ModifyingexistingexcelsheetusingWDABAP
But again it is not clear whether this approach will work on Unix based SAP server (ECC WAS).
Thanks
Suresh

I don't know if there is an application in Unix that can read Excel files - if that is what you are asking. However that has nothing to do with this forum. If you are uploading the file to ABAP using Web Dynpro ABAP, then it doesn't matter what Operating System the server is running on. Unix, Linux, Windows - all the processing is done in ABAP and is OS independent. The actual reading of the file in ABAP involves reading either an XML or Text Tab Delimited version of the Excel file however - if you read through the links on manipulating Excel in ABAP.

Lightroom 5.5 for Mac Adjustment Brush not working

Hi all, since updating to Lightroom 5.5 for Mac Adjustment Brush has stopped working entirely. I can open the menu and it does display the brush within the menu. When dragging the tool into the image it changes to the mouse arrow which doesn't have any function. Any ideas? Thank you very much for your help. Chris

And- do you actually press or hold down the left-mouse button and drag the cursor on the image? as you would a paint brush. A 'Pin' will appear where you start the brush stroke.
And- Is it possible that you have the switch at the base of the brush panel sliders turned off ? (The toggle switch on the same line as "Reset" and "Close")
Pressing "O" only turns the overlay mask on/off to give a visual indication 'Where' you have applied the brush.
Pressing "SHIFT+O" changes the colour of the MASK overlay- Red, Green, Grey, Clear
"O" does not affect any editing of the image.

App for editing/reading/writing Excel, Word, Windows notepad text documents

I was wondering if any of you's could recommend some apps (from experience) that would allow me to, edit/read/write Excel, Word, Windows notepad text documents.
I could make do with an app that would do the above but without the ability to create, edit Windows notepad text documents. But been able to read, write, edit Word and Excel documents would have to be a must.
Thanks in advance.

Thanks everyone for the help it was much appreciated.
After debating, I decided on Docs To Go at £9.99. For this amount its a universal app and as such I can have it installed on my iPhone as well as my iPad (which is what I have done), so £5 for to have it on each device is good value I feel. Quick Office on the other hand would have cost £8.99 for the iPad version and £5.99 for the iPhone version a total of almost £15, which is quite a bit more than I paid for Docs To Go.
Upto now, I find Docs To Go does everything I want from it, with regards to editing, reading, writing my Excel files. I tried transferring a Microsoft Windows Notepad text document over to the iPad/iPhone, I was able to read this and also add additional text/words to it and save it too. I do use text documents sometimes because if I want to add them onto a friend's computer for example, I know that they will be able to read them because with them having a Windows PC and also my friend does not have the Microsoft Office program on their PC.
The transferring of files from the computer to the iPhone/iPad is done via a free download of the Docs To Go desktop software program (which is both PC and Mac) compatible). You first need to go into the Docs To Go app and select 'ADD DESKTOP'. This then allows you to add a device to the Docs To Go desktop program thus enabling transfer. You are shown a pin number on the screen which you enter into the Docs To Go app, this procedure only needs to be done once.
The Docs To Go desktop program creates a folder during installation, where all the files etc are stored that are transferred/going to be transferred over are kept.
Some people might think needing to use a program to transfer files over is a bit of a nuisance, when other similar programs allow transfer via a web browser. Personally I find that those programs, the transfer is a bit cumbersome and can be a bit slow. I find the transfer via the Docs To Go desktop program is a lot easier and faster than using the web browser. The only downside I can see with needing to use the Docs To Go desktop program is that.. If I am at a friend's house and want to transfer something on to my iPhone/iPad. My friend would need to install the program, but saying that, its a very small program and its not a big deal having to install it. If they didn't want to install it, then there is either emailing the file or transferring the file to my Dropbox account. I forgot to mention that Docs To Go supports cloud/online storage such as Dropbox, GoogleDocs as well as others.
Once the above is done, you switch the wifi on, load the Docs To Go app, load the Docs To Go desktop program. You then just drag and drop the folders etc that you are wanting transferred over into the The Docs To Go desktop program, then you click on the circular arrow button and they are then transferred over onto the iPhone/iPad.
Once on the iPhone/iPad, you can view them, add additional information, when you make any changes you can press the circular arrow symbol (bottom left of the Docs To Go app) on the Docs To Go app and the changes are then synced back to the same file that is stored on the computer, so its very easy to keep everything in sync and up to date.
It is possible whilst using a Microsoft Word document to have a word count, you just touch the symbol at the bottom right of the Docs To Go app and choose Word Count from the drop down menu. I have heard a few people in some reviews saying that 'Docs To Go doesn't have a word count', when indeed it does.
One surprise is that Docs To Go, does not have a spell checker, but hopefully during later updates, the feature might be added. I sent my feedback to Docs To Go requesting this feature on future releases. I expect that there will be many other people who have requested this feature too.
I just thought I would share my experience with using Docs To Go.
Thanks again everyone for the help, it was much appreciated
