File keeps turning colors, pixelating when adding content or scrolling down

Dear all,
I have a problem with my file - for some reason the background, which I have inserted from Photoshop keeps pixelating and turning to a bright green, whenever I add things to the file. When I started out working on it it did not, but the more I add the more it turns and I can not get it to turn back. It starts in Patches and then spreads throughout the document, I don´t know how to better describe it. I´m adding a screenshot, maybe you can help me. The green you see in the middle is the one it is supposed to be. In this shot it just started turning and will then spread. It is worse when a photo is involved, because then the photo uses will also turn colors.
Really hoping someone knows what went wrong.
Kind regards!
A.

That's a pretty complex file. When was the last time you did a Save AS to remove old and inaccessible change information?
I've never seen any color anomalies, but it's not rare for me to see preview degradation, which I've traced to lsft/right scrolling using my mouse's tilt wheel. I'm able to restroe the view by holding the Alt + Spacebar keys to get the Hand tool and clicking anywhere on the page,so I'm curious if that works for you, too.
Finally, I'd recommend exporting this to .idml to clean up any crud in the file. See Remove minor corruption by exporting

I can not scroll down to turn of the speech to text. How can I turn it off when I can not scroll down the menu in general setting. It seem everything is locked. Thank you.

If you are referring to VoiceOver, you need to scroll using three fingers.

How to Specify Metadata When Adding Content Using iTunes U Web Service?

I've been developing Java applications using iTunes U Web service and uploaded content to iTunes U site using iTunes U Web service without problem. Now I want to add metadata fields (name, artist name, album name, etc.) for the tracks I uploaded. It seems to me that "AddTrack" will do. So I tested it but it neither adds a track under the specified group nor updates metadata fields for an existing track. It turned out "MergeTrack" actually updates metadata fields for an existing track. So is there any way to specify metadata at the time of adding content using iTunes U Web service? And what exactly does AddTrack do? This is all about contents hosted by iTunes U site and no RSS is involved.
I'm referring to the "AddTrack" method in iTunes U Web service:
http://deimos.apple.com/rsrc/doc/iTunesUAdministrationGuide/iTunesUWebServices/c hapter18_section_21.html#//appleref/doc/uid/AdminGuide-CH13-SW26

Thanks for all the replies. My question is whether there is any way to specify metadata WHEN adding content using iTunes U Web service. Specifying metadata AFTER adding content can be achieved by MergeTrack (weird naming) and it does work.
As for setting track level meta-data in the media file and then upload it, there're several reasons against that, among which are:
1. Some track metadata are context-dependent. A video about buildings on Michigan Ave in Chicago can be track #2 in a history course and described as "historic view of the Magnificent Mile", but the same media can also be track #5 in a landscape design course and described as something like "contemporary architecture". Setting these metadata in the media file itself is not the preferred way to do it since it implies maintaining a version of the same media for any course/group it gets uploaded to.
2. Setting metadata in a location separate from the media file helps track the metadata change and search for media without digging into the media itself.
3. If MergeTrack "updates" metadata, there got to be some other method that "creates" metadata - that's what a well-designed API should look like. And setting metadata in the media file is not an equivalent to a "create metadata" method call. In rickwolf's term, that implicit AddTrack should actually be made explicit so the party uploading content can explicitly specify metadata instead of having iTunes U extract metadata from the media.
It is still not clear what "AddTrack" does exactly, maybe rickwolf is right - it's only relevant to tracks created through RSS.
So it seems to me there is no other way to specify metadata WHEN adding content using iTunes U Web service than setting metadata in the media file. To me it is more like a design flaw.

Trouble with slow Macbook Air. I have first generation MacBook Air and have a hard time keeping hard drive from being full. Right now, I have almost 5 gigs available, but mac is slow and I keep getting color wheel when I use Mail. Any suggestions?

Trouble with slow Macbook Air. I have first generation MacBook Air and have a hard time keeping hard drive from being full. After trashing many docs, I have almost 5 gigs available, but mac is slow and I keep getting color wheel when I use Mail. I'd like to install Lion, but now I'm afraid it will slow down my machine even further. Do I have enough free hard disc space? Is Mail problem related to free hard disc space? Thanks for your help!

7gb of free disc space is required to install Lion. Read this about how to free up disc space: http://pondini.org/OSX/DiskSpace.html. Also, advice on how to speed up your mac: http://www.maclife.com/article/feature/25_ways_speed_your_mac

Samsung Convoy - keeps turning itself off when closed up

I'm having trouble with the Samsung Convoy turning itself off, when I close it to hang up. Sometimes it does it, sometimes not. If I try to slowly and very gingerly close it, it may not turn off. Is anyone else having this problem? It's very annoying as I find out my phone has been off and I didn't know it.
Thanks!

Hello tdugdell,
I know it can be a bit frustrating when your device powers off without your knowledge. Since you do have the most recent software I would first suggest to try a different battery in the device to help confirm if the root cause is device or simply the battery. If you do not have an additional battery we can see if your nearest store has a test battery to try and if not we can see what warranty options you may have. If the test advises this is not a battery issue I would then suggest completing a factory reset. Click here to follow visuals to do so. This process will erase everything on the device so please back up if desired. Click here to for visuals to back up your contacts. Once the reset is done the device will power cycle and prompt a re-activation by dialing *228 send option 1. I would like for you to test the device before you add your contacts back via backup assistant if you choose to use the application. If the test(s) is successful then proceed with adding your contacts and retest after. Please advise me of the results, per the suggestions above, if you need additional assistance. Thank you.

My music files keep being removed after being added to iTunes

I have had my macbook for about a year and only recently has it started to remove my music files from its originial folder when i add it to itunes. I have looked at all the settings and can't figure out whats going on. Any advice ???

ITunes can convert the files for you. Set up mp3 as your import format from Edit > Preferences > General tab (enable the menu bar if needed with ALT or CTRL+B), then right-click on a selection of files and use Create MP3 Version.

IMovie 10.0.5 crashes into millions of colored pixels when I add v/o narrative using Pages to read script from and using a USB mic attached to my iMac. I am running Mavericks OS X10.9.4

Hi, I have been editing a project for a week and over the past 2 days iMovie 10.0.5 has crashed into millions of colored pixels about 6 times. I am working on a 27" iMac running OS X 10.9.4 with 6GB of Ram, plenty of space on start up disc (217 GB's) The crash seems to coincide with any effort to use an external USB mic plugged in to record a narrative. I can record the voice over but a few minutes later I get some awful audio scrubbing sounds and then it pixelates. Why is this happening and how can I work around this to record a voiceover please? Any help would be greatly appreciated. I'm nervous to continue if my work is going to ultimately be lost. My project is currently about seventeen mins and includes, video clips from 2 different cameras (both Canon) a music track from iTunes and some still images (jpegs.)

Thanks Erik,
If nothing else, this huge list of updates and fixes, shows clearly that the Logic Dev team is working hard on fixing and improving LPX to a major degree.... and from the list of fixes done.. show they do read the bug reports submitted!
As an aside....
I recall how all the 'naysayers' prior to LPX (and in some cases, since...) were proclaiming how Logic was dead, the team was being disbanded, we won't see any further development, the Dev team doesn't listen or care... and so on....... I wonder where those people are now?

When I try to access a picture from i photo the picture will come up and then quickly the screen goes black and there is a white exclamation mark. Also when using faces and scrolling down pictures some disappear very quickly after a brief look.

When using i photo and trying to pull up individual photos - the photo will appear and quickly disappear only to be replaced by a black screen with a white explanation mark. This happens with all of my photos. Has anyone had this problem and if so what can be done to fix it. I did not select this graphic to be added to my i photo pictures - the blace sign with the white explanation mark. Also, when scrolling down photos in faces some of my pictures disappear after a quick view.
Thanks for any help you can provide. It seems like something has gotten into my i photo picture account?

The ! turns up when iPhoto loses the connection between the thumbnail in the iPhoto Window and the file it represents.
What version of iPhoto? Assuming 09 or later...
Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

Page Gradient Color fades when adding text.

Hi,
I've made several pages for my iWeb created site. Each page has a unique gradient color applied to it using the standard: Page inspector>Layout>Page Background>Gradient Fill commands. I've added a movie to this page and it all looks great. However, the moment I add a text box, the gradient color is drained of its saturation. A gold color turns to a pale yellow. A dark grey gradient turns to a light grey etc. When I publish the site, this desaturation is translated to the actual site online. Any Ideas? I've not done anything unique to the text. I just add a text box, type a word, drag into position and bam, just like that, the gradient color fades. Any ideas would be appreciated.
Chris

Chris:
Just ran a test and adding a text box didn't cause the gradient fill to lose saturation. Try the following:
1 - close iWeb and delete the iWeb preference file, com.apple.iWeb.plist, that resides in your User/Library/Preferences folder.
2 - reboot (clears the iWeb caches).
3 - launch iWeb, redo the page and try again.
I only published the page to a folder on the HD and not to the server but don't think that would produce any different results.

"Add a copy of this File to iTunes music folder when adding to library" ???

why on earth is this feature a feature???
now that i finally realized what i have been doing all this time... i see that i have 1000's of dupes eating up HD space.
obviously when i add a song to my library - i want it in the folder i have chosen to be my iTunes music folder -- d'uh!!!
that is precisely where i added the songs to!
so can someone help me understand why i did this?
what need did i have to click this preference?
i know i made this choice...
what i want to know is if there is a reason to click it that i am missing the boat on?
thanks

hi nysepete,
why on earth is this feature a feature???
this feature is for copying files into the iTunes music folder when you are dragging/openning files into your library.
let's say you have a song file on your desktop that you just downloaded from Internet. if you double click on it or simply drag it into the iTunes windows, iTunes will automatically copy this file into your music folder. then, you can delete the file on your desktop since a copy have been made and referenced by iTunes.
if however this option isn't activated, the iTunes library will instead referenced the files in it's current location, i.e. in this exemple on your desktop.
personally, I keep the option checked so when I need to add files to the library, I know the will be managed by iTunes and then simply send the original to the trash. unchecking this option is mostly for people that want to manage files themselves outside the iTunes Music folder.

Error when adding content selector

Hi guys, I have a portal which is derived from the sample portal. Everything works
fine except for the fact that when I try to add a content selector, I get an error
message saying that there is a server communication error. The line generated
in the server log file is the following:
####<Jun 14, 2004 12:40:01 PM EDT> <Debug> <HTTP> <GMC-200808> <portalServer>
<ExecuteThread: '1' for queue: 'weblogic.socket.Muxer'> <<WLS Kernel>> <> <BEA-101147>
<HttpServer(20881442,null default ctx,portalServer) Found no context for "/AEPortalAppTool/PropertySetWS".
This request does not match the context path for any installed Web applications,
and there is no default Web application configured.>
I verified most configuration files and did alot of testing, but I just can seem
to find what causes this. If I run my portal in the test browser, it's fonctional
and communicates fine with server for several tasks including authentication.
Anyone has a clue ?!?!
Thanks!

Oh, that's weird. You're right, right after I change the link it turn out working after few minutes. Thanks a lot :)
BTW, can I ask you once more question? It's about margin selector. Normally, if I put and "auto" value into "margin" it suppose to be center right? But in this code it won't (I never see this sintulation before)
<style>
main {
background: rgba(0,0,0,.4);
position: absolute;
margin: 20px auto;
padding: 5px;
width: 1000px
</style>

Color Shifts when adding/removing transparency

I may have used the wrong search terms, so my apologies if this question exists somewhere else
Using Indd CS2: Assuming that "Overprint Preview" is off I notice a color shift on a layout when transparency is introduced or removed.
For example: a transparent object or placed image, is either added or taken away from a document that is inherently flat or non-transparent.
Note: It doesn't matter if the transparent object is affecting any other object on the page. For instance, I could have a polygon square set to multiply somewhere off the artboard. But as soon as I remove that polygon the color of the document shifts slightly. I can prevent this color shift from happening if I move the "Transparency Slider" to "Off" in Preferences>Display Performance. Or use "Fast" for the "Adjust View Settings".
So I guess I know what causes the shift to take place (+ or - transparency), but I can't explain what is causing the slight color shift. Can anybody help explain this in more detail?
I do appreciate it.
-Jeff

Turning on Overprint Preview gives you the most accurate view of how objects on the page will print. It's the preferred way to view the page (though it's normally off to speed up page display).
What happens when Overprint Preview is turned on when you add the transparent object. (Of course, when you print or create a PDF that needs to be flattened, all objects on the page need to be converted to the same color space (selected in Edit > Transparency Blend Spaceeither RGB or CMYK.

Hi, My atachments /any file format/ turns into .dat when I mail them into my own iPad2. What to do??

Hi
When I email an attachment /any file format/ from my PC to my iPad2 the attached file turns into a .dat file
What to do?

An Alias would be an email address that is delivered to a different account's inbox.
For instance if you have [email protected] and have [email protected] Then [email protected] would be an alias if mails from that address arrive at the icloud address.
If you want to add a completely different account, with a spearate inbox, like an account in hotmail and one in say yahoo mail. Then as has been pointed out, you need to go into the Settings Icon, Tap on Mail, Contacts, Calendars, and then on add account. The iPad has several services preconfigured, you can tap on one of those from the list to setup an email for that service. Such as Hotmail, Gmail etc...
Or you can tap on other to add a personal pop3 or imap type email like from your office, or your school.
