Export for web files play on one server, but not on another.

I exported my movie from QT Pro 7.6.6 and it created all the files I need. I have the movie "sniffer"(movie that determines which version to pull up depending on device) and then the sub movies. When I go straight to the sniffer in Safari with the files on my client's server, the movie plays fine. When I do the same from my iPad or iPhone, it won't play from that server.
If I move the exact same files to another server and go to the sniffer, the movie plays on all devices. Could there be some sort of server setting preventing them from being played on my client's server?
If so, what specifically needs to change on the server?

TNS error ORA-12154 : can connect to one server but not to another.

Hello,
I have a Forms 6.0 application running on a Solaris box. It connects
fine to an Oracle 9.0 server but fails with ORA-12154 when trying to
connect to Oracle 10g running on a different server.
'sqlplus' can connect fine to both servers .
'tnsping'result is succesful from the Solaris client to both servers.
Configuration details are as follows. (IP Addresses have been
sanitised. I've included the client side listener and also entries for
the 'local' Oracle 8i server running on the Solaris 'client' although
I think some of this may be not relevant):

As you can see, I have tried adding an alias for the default domain

Just to add to the fun, the 'new' server running Ora 10g CANNOT connect
to the old server running Ora 9:
sqlplus user/pass@nn_qq3
sqlplus user/pass@nn_qq3.qonnectis.com both fail.
While the old 9.0 server CAN connect to the new 10g one:
sqlplus user/[email protected] succeeds.
Sorry this is such a mess. TBH I find this whole area extremely
confusing.
All suggestions welcome. Unfortunately I am away on holiday next week
but will follow up any leads when I get back.
thanks!

DVD-R plays on one machine but not on another

I have an HDD-DVD recorder, which can burn DVD-R disks. The disks will then play in my 12" PB, but won't play in my iMac - although they did at one time. Putting the disk in results in a repetitive clicking and whirring but the disk does not appear on the Desktop of the iMac, and Disk Utility will not recognise it. Commercial DVDs are recognised OK.
Both machines are running the same version of OS.
Thanks!

Not sure, maybe if you can share the form, I can have a look at it.

External media files work on one computer but not on another

I have several MOV and MP4 video files that are stored in a specific folder, and some of my presentations display those videos in their slides. Because there are too many video files, they’re not embedded on the presentation, they are (I believe) only linked, or else the presentation file would just get too large.
I usually create the presentations on my home iMac and copy them to my MacBook to take to work. The folders structure is exactly the same on both computers, including the user name.
I upgraded to Keynote 6 (and now to 6.0.1) on both computers (both running on OS Mavericks). When I open on my MacBook a presentation that I created on my iMac, the app says the video files couldn’t be located, and it only displays a still of the video. But the video files are there! The folders are mirrored! This procedure worked fine with version 5.3, but doesn’t work with 6.0.1.
Any suggestions?

I would suggest you revert to using Keynote version 5 and things will work as they did.
Make sure you use version 5 presentation files as files used with 6 will have been converted to version 6 files.
Once Keynote has been updated and is more mature and reliable, you could start using 6 again.

Songs playing on one computer, but not on others.

I use my iPod on three different computers (Home/Work/brand new laptop). I recently upgraded my iPod from original 80gb to new Classic 160gb. Before I purchased my new iPod, I transferred my whole library (about 50gb)from my iPod onto my new laptop(using transfer software). Then when I purchased my new iPod I synced the whole library to the iPod. The problem is that when ever I connect my iPod to my work or home PC some songs have an exclamation mark next to them (and they don't play). So when I went to replace the "exclamation marked" songs from the laptop (where the whole library exist), I had NO exclamation marks. So my question is why do the songs play on one computer but not the others? Please help!

It looks alot like the problem we had when we couldn't resolve the CUPS server FQDN. But the desktop and laptop are on the same subnet and use the same DNS servers. I can ping the CUPS server by FQDN from the command prompt on both

Quicktime Export For Web files inaccessible

I accidentally posted this in the QT for Windows section, but I'm a Mac guy.
This is totally bizarre. As of this afternoon, all of the QT files (generated with Export for Web from QT7.6) that I've posted over recent days and weeks, on multiple servers, played back by different computers at different locations, running QT 7.6.4 and 7.6.6, OSX 10.5.8 to 10.6.3, WILL NOT PLAY. How is this possible?
If I connect directly to the original .mov file (as opposed to the "alias" .mov file generated by Export for Web), then it will play. If I connect to the .m4v file, my browser wants to download it, and then play it.
What's going on here? Apparently I'm not the only one to have this problem. Is this due to some sort of DRM update put in place on account of the iPad introduction? iTunes and QT have been updated on at least one of the computers I've tried this with, and it didn't make a difference.
Hello??? Is anybody out there?

Here are several examples:

NaN on one server but not another

Anyone heard of a situation where dynamic text (set using
XML) will show up fine on one server, but display "NaN" on another
(in this case, a Windows server, with the Flash Player code on an
.asp page)?
If it helps, the SWF is using AS2. And the XML data is
actually being cast as a Number before being passed/set to a global
variable.

Does the CFGRID load on the page at all? If not it is either
a firewall issue or a permissions issues on the folder which
contains the .jar files for the CFGRID. Something like:
/CFIDE/classes/cfapplets.jar
I have had similar permissions issues where the web page did
not have proper access to the .jar files.

Call customer-subscreen causes dump in one box but not in another box

Hi guys,
Just wondering if anyone here encountered this situation before and knows of any explanation or solution.
There's two development boxes with a program that contains the following code/statement:
call customer-subscreen SSCR903 including 'SAPLXXXXXX' '2000'
SAPLXXXXXX happens to not exist in both boxes. In the first box, when execution reaches that statement above it will generate a dump saying that 'SAPLXXXXXX doesn't exist'. But in the second box, when execution reaches that statement above it won't generate a dump and execution continues to the next statement in the program.
I checked SAP documentation on the CALL CUSTOMER-SUBSCREEN keywords, but I didn't find anything that would explain why it dumps in the first box, but not in the second one.
Anyone encountered the same situation before? Any explanation why it's dumping in one box, but not in the other box?
Thanks in advance for any help.
Kind regards,
Carl

Welcome to sdn.
Abap doesn't check existence of the dynpro, it only check activation of the exit in CMOD, that may explain the, difference.

Problem Exporting for Web files created in FCE using Quicktime

I have been using FCE 4.01 on Mac OSX 10.7.5 with Quicktime 10.1 (501.29).
I convert my footage in Mpeg Streamclip (GREAT free program) and set the files to the Apple Intermediate Codec. This makes them work really well in my timeline and I don't have rendering issues or problems.
So, my problem comes when I File/Export/Quictime Movie.
The original file plays fine, but they're 2-3 gbs each, so I put them into Quicktime to convert them to a webfriendly size, but every single time they come out as an audio only file. GRRRR!
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Maybe I'm missing something stupid.
Thanks so much for your help.
Sincerely,
Steve

Why not bring the exported AIC file back into MPEG Streamclip instead of QTX? You'll have a lot more control.
Compress the file to H.264 and restrict the data rate according to the resolution you're working with and to something consistent with the guidelines of the Web Service (say, You Tube) you're uploading to, (For example, something like 6 Mb per second would be about right for a 720P file.)
Or use Quicktime Conversion from FCE.
Good luck.

LabVIEW 2013 Web Service works on debug server but not on application server

I have made a LabVIEW web service, that needs to get 2 inputs from the user through html request, and one input from a running VI. For this communication I have used a notifier to transfer data between the VI and the webservice method. This works perfectly fine on the debug server, but doesn't work when I deploy the web service on the Application Web Server. As shown in the attached snippets, I use a FGV to transfer the reference of the Notifier from the VI to the web service method. This is the same method that is described in this link.
Is this method correct? Or am I missing something?

I can't find the right link but....
There is something I ran across a while ago about how to enable the correct server port in you application. The VI Server debug port gets enabled with debugging enabled but, you need to specify your services port in the <MyApp>.ini file.
I'll sit back and watch the masters now

Smb error -36 on one server but not another (vpn)

Here goes:
I'm connecting using the built-in Apple VPN client to work.
Once connected, I try to mount two Windows servers using the finder:
* The first one asks my username/password and mounts no problem.
* The 2nd doesn't seem to ask for username/password, and just gives me the dreaded "error -36"
The console says:
Unknown host
mount_smbfs: can't get server address: syserr = Network is down
mount_smbfs: can't get server address 'XXXXXXXXXXX'
But the network is up (I know, since I am moving files from the other server).
When connecting from inside the office (not via VPN) all is well.
What gives?

Why will DVD play on one player but not another??

Hi,
I made an ISO file using devede and then burnt it to a DVD using K3B. The finished DVD will work on a Magnavox player but not a JVC. Is there anything I can do about this??? Do some players have a "must be produced commercially" filter or something???
Jim

First, I am assuming you recorded your iso on +R type media. Next, I'm guessing that the player that won't play your DVD is the older of the two players. Some DVD players, especially older ones don't like +R media. If this is the case, here is a possible fix.
Here is a thread on another forum which discuses changing the booktype on your DVD burner. Here is a quote from the original post:
There have been many questions asked about how to booktype +R media to DVD-ROM
Many standalone Players, HDD recorders/players and games consoles don't like +R media but they are happy enough to play -R or DVD-ROM.
Some drive brands have tools to change this option but others don't. I have found that the easiest way to change your BOOKTYPE setting is to use a small burning tool called IMGBurn which can be found doing a Google search.
Below you can see some screen shots which guide you through changing your BOOKTYPE setting. For this I have used my NEC4551 but IMGBurn supports NU-Tech, Plextor, Ricoh, Samsung, BenQ, LG, Lite-on and NEC.
Once you have changed your BOOKTYPE setting, when you burn a +R/+RW disc it will be burned as a DVD-ROM which is the same as a bought movie and most players are happy to play these.
Since my DVD players are happy with +R media, I haven't tried this. Both of my players are fairly new, and I made sure that +R was listed on the box as one of the formats accepted by that player.
As usual, try this at your own risk.

.mov files play on my computer but not on friend's....

I burned several QuickTimePro-created .mov files to a DVD which I then sent to a friend. When she received it, she was unable to play any of the files and was directed to a webpage with lots of 3rd party plugins with no clear idea which one was needed.
Under Info on the files I see they are encoded with Sorenson H.263, MPEG Layer 3.
My friend has regular QuickTime (not Pro).
Thanks!

Thanks for your help.
She tried that but still no luck.
When she tries to play the file, QuickTime launches, bringing up a black box with no video or sound. After trying the maneuver you suggested, the only difference was that a progress bar appeared at the bottom of the black box and moved, as if a video was playing. However, still no video or sound.
Hmmm.....

VOB Video files play in Premier Elements but not in Organizer

I just purchased a new Dell Studio 15 Laptop, running Windows 7 (64bit), with an i7 cpu, and my VOB video files play and show a thumbnail in Premier Elements 8 but do not in the organizer. Has anyone found this problem and a solution?

Hunt
Thank you for responding so quickly. I first installed my Premier Elements 8 and Photoshop Elements 8 on our Vista desktop computer, and everything worked fine. I purchased my laptop with a high end cpu, hoping to improve performance, and moved my application over, and now I am unable to play these videos when in the Organizer, while they do play in Elements (they played in both applications on the slower Vista computer).
I tried to update premier elements to 8.0.1, (I am running 8.0) but the updater sayes no updates are available.
I created the VOB files from my old family video tapes using a Sony DVDirect DVD Recorder, model MRD-MC6 if that helps. I didnt try to strip data from the files, because I dont know how, and think I shouldnt have to, given that everything worked fine on my older Vista desktop.
One other clue- if I try to import one file at a time to the organizer, I get the following error message:
"The selected file cannot be played because your system does not have the required compressor/decompressor (codec) installed.
Perhaps the Organizer and Premier Elements use different codecs, and the on in my organizer doesnt work." Any ideas how to check if I have the proper codec(s)?

CR2 files open from one camera, but not the other in CS2

Running Mac with CS2. My camera raw files shot with my lovely Canon 5D open and can be viewed in bridge and in photoshop, but NOT the camera raw from my brand new Canon powershot G9. They are both producing CR2 files. I can see the images in the bridge browser window, but when I double click to open I get a dialogue box that says, "Could not complete your request because Photoshop does not recognize this type of file." I have the 3.7 plug in installed. Please, some god or goddess of photoshop out there, show me the error of my ways!

Walt,
I will answer your questions to the best of my ability. But hopefully others who are better at this than I am will offer their help as well. So, here goes.
1. Everyone has their preferred method of using Bridge. In the Photoshop preferences I have not checked the box to have bridge start automatically. Although I use Bridge most of the time, there are occasions when I don't want to use it. So I prefer to start my Photoshop session by starting Bridge first, and then double-click on an image in Bridge to have it opened in Photoshop. In the Bridge preferences, I have checked the "Double-Click Edits Camera Raw Settings in Bridge", and I like working that way.
2. I have seen several people comment about having this problem. And occasionally it will develop after you have been using Bridge/Photoshop for a while. The only thing I can suggest is for you to hold down the Ctrl key while you start Bridge. A dialogue will appear that will allow you to reset your preferences. There are three options and you should choose all three. I know, you haven't had it installed very long, but this "could" be the problem. One guy I talked with said that he had to do it several times before it fixed the problem.
3. You indicated that you downloaded Camera Raw 4(5). What does that mean? Did you download version 4.5, which is the latest version? And, did you follow the installation instructions that were on the download page? The new plug-in must be put in the exact directory specified, replacing the old version that is already there. The old version cannot be put in a sub folder. You might as well get rid of it. You don't need it anymore. And, again, it has to go into the specific folder designated in the instructions. After you have done that, in Photoshop goto Help/About Plug-ins and click on Camera Raw. It should only be listed once, and when you click on it you should get a dialogue that will tell you what version you have installed.
4. After I installed CS3, when I inserted a card into my card reader I was presented with the normal Windows options. One of the options I was given was to download using Bridge. I chose that option and indicated to always use that option. I haven't had any problems with it since. But if that option isn't there, you can open Bridge and click on the File menu. There is an option to download images from your camera. It has worked well for me.
