FW CS3 - Too many slices

Hi,
I am using FW CS3 and I have accumulated too many slices on
my page. Is there any way to remove slices? Or maybe if I cannot
remove them, is there a way to easily reorganize them?

Are you talking about slicing guides? Just click on it and
drag it off.

  • Cs3 too many activations

    Hi,
    I accidently uninstalled Photoshop CS3 without deactivating it and need to reinstall it on a new computer but am getting the "Too Many Activations" message. If somebody from Adobe is listening can you help please?
    I realise this is a user-to-user forum but there is no other option. I've called the activation phone number which states there is no more phone activation support go to www.adobe.com/go/activation. The activation support web page says you can only use chat and the chat support people say there is only forum support for CS3 products. I just need my serial number reset as I can't use the purchased product!!
    Please help Adobe.
    Thanks,
    Chris.

    That's what you'd think right but... Adobe just says it's an unsupported product and you have to go through the forums. So here I am.
    I've tried calling but as soon as you say CS3 on the automated system it hangs up :-(
    When I was on a chat with Adobe I did ask how the forums were supposed to reset my activations but the guy just said you have to go through the forums.
    One very unhappy camper,

    That means you were trying to reach or were already chatting with Adobe Tech Support, as opposed to Adobe Customer Service.  Only Adobe Customer service can assist you.

  • CS3 Camera Raw Too Many Files Open at the Same time alert!!!

    Please help me. I keep getting this error message in Camera Raw that says there are too many files open at the same time - but I only have 100 open:( Please help - I was getting this error with CS2 and thought upgrading to CS3 would fix it and it didn't!!!

    > "10 or 100 - you can quickly go through a stack of images in ACR and make any desired changes you want. Whether making the same or similar adjustment to similar files, or making radically different adjustments to different images as appropriate".
    I've done this with far more than 100! I think my maximum is 425 raw files, invoking ACR from Bridge without Photoshop even loaded, and it worked well. (I've also done 115 JPEGs in order to crop them under extreme time constraints).
    It can be very slick. For example, if I use a ColorChecker a number of times in a shoot, it is easy to select just the set (perhaps 100 or so) that a particular ColorChecker shot applies to and set the WB for all of them.
    Furthermore, in case people don't know, you can set ratings on raw images while many of them are open in ACR. (Just click under the thumbnail). It isn't as powerful as Lightroom, but it is not to be dismissed.
    I suspect that it is possible to apply sensor-dust-healing to lots of images in the same way, and certainly it is easy to apply presets based on various selections.
    Perhaps with AMG (Adobe Media Gallery) it will be sensible to use the above capability to process 100s of raw files, then create a set of web pages for the best of them, in not much more time than it would have taken in Lightroom. I judge that Lightroom is the "proper" tool for the job (perhaps after 1.1!), but Bridge+ACR can go a long way.

    I bought and legally own PS CS3. Installed on a desktop and the machine died completely. Downloaded a trial of CS3 from Adobe site. Went to activate and said too many activations. Activate over the phone. EXCEPT Adobe does not handle activation issues over the phone. Adobe doesn't care about their older products - they don't care that I spent hundreds of dollars for CS3. This is truly disgusting corporate behavior. Is there anything I can do? We aren't all rich photographers. I paid a great deal of money for this product. Is it now useless?Thank you,

    kindly do the mentioned steps as follow in order to get hold of chat rep of adobe

  • Outline stroke giving too many unnecessary points.

    how will I'm going to deal with this? when I converting into this, it give too many points even it looks like it can can just a 2 to 4 points. Any plugin that I may use while still maintaining its shape? and btw i'm on PC not Mac. Simplify and Cleanup didn't work.

    Expanding paths will very often still result in a tremendous point count. I have been trying to figure out the reason for it but this is not very easy.
    Here is a screenshot after expanding an envelope containing elements that are basically just circles and merged circles. The result is absolutely unusable. Can't work with it. Simplifying the path gives a little relief but frankly, it's a far cry from the old days.
    I have been using Illustrator since version 3. No, not CS3, version 3. That's right, the late nineties...
    Now frankly, the expanded result on the right is something Adobe really should pay attention to. This does not only happen with envelopes, mind you.

  • Too many activations

    HI,
    I'm getting the message "Too many activations" when trying to install Dreamweaver CS3.
    It's a volume license key so you can't deactivate it from the other computer.
    I've uninstalled from the other computer and it still says "Too many activations".
    You can't call Adobe anymore about this product. They just want you to post in the forums.
    So here I am......anyone from Adobe listening who can deactivate my previous installs?
    Thanks.

  • Too many threads?

    Is there a such thing as using too many threads? I'm in the planning stages and it would be nice to have each object running on its own thread, but is this a horrible thing? Is there a general rule of thumb on the number of running threads?

    Personally, I think if you have more than 20 or so
    threads in a process, the task swiching time will
    start to exceed the useful work done. Its better to
    use one of the standard patterns for pooling threads.There is no one 'right' or 'maximum' number of threads.
    The number of threads after which things get overly inefficient varies greatly depending on the characteristics of the application. If 20 threads fully consume the CPU, then adding more threads will only make things worse. If 20 threads can only use 10% of the CPU resources because of external delays (network access, database, etc.) then it may be true that using 200 threads is best, assuming of course that the throughput capacity of the network, database or external system can accomidate the increased load.
    What you'd like to avoid is preemption - a runnable thread interrupts a currently running thread that still has need of the CPU - this wastes time. If the running threads tend to block before the end of their time slice, then there really isn't going to be any added cost to context switches, nothing else would be using the CPU anyway.
    If the computer the application is running on has a number of CPU's, then it can probably accomidate more threads than a single CPU system. Of course there are limits to the effectiveness of this and a single process with many threads may not (often does not) run as efectively as several copies of the application with fewer threads each due to various inter thread contention issues.

  • Photoshop CS5 doesn't work properly after opening too many images

    Hi
    This is my very first post.
    I'm also new to CS5. I do hundreds of photo touching/cropping that is a part of my job for web.
    Everything is running fine but when ever I open too many images in Photoshop CS5 it doesn't work, I mean it doesn't hang or freezes it just open all files and then doesn't show any images (just blank) and when I closes 20/30 or more images then it get fine.
    I thought it might a RAM problem but i have i3 processor with 4GB of RAM. I have also increased memory usage from 60% to 80% but I'm still facing the same problem.
    Would like to tell that in the previous version of CS3 I never got this problem and worked fine.
    thanks

    Disabling OpenGL entirely is draconian.
    You could try, if it's not already set that way, going into the Advanced settings and switching OpenGL to "Basic" mode, which uses fewer resources.

  • Too Many Activations - But I only have it on one computer!

    I have Photoshop CS3 installed on my home PC and am currently trying to install it on my new laptop while I am away for two months in the States. However, it says I've used too many licenses already.
    I only have the program installed on my PC, so my laptop should make my second device, right?
    I've tried going through the Contact Us pages but it sends me in an endless loop which just brings me back here to the forums every time with no option to chat to staff at any stage, no matter what I enter.
    I start at the 'Give us more information' page, go via photoshop, installing and activation, too many licenses, etc. I follow it to the 'cannot deactivate' page, which says 'click here to contact us'... and that takes me back to the 'Give us more information' page, over and over.
    Please help! I can't get by without Photoshop while I'm away.

    Hi,
    I'm Galit from the QE team of VIN.
    All the things that you've described are correct.
    It is actually an edge case where the only VM, that the manual App can be managed from its Map view, was removed from the App.
    The Manual App management is as designed, and may be changed in the future.
    There are 2 ways to overcome this situation:
    1.You can, as you stated, create another Manual App with similar name and remain with the "Zombie App".
    2. To run a specific command that will remove the Zombie App from the DB.
    Please note that option no. 2 involves using an API that we do not publish.
    If you would like to use option no. 2 contact me in private and we will see about supplying the relevant commands to run in order to delete the "zombie" application.
    Thanks,
    Galit Gutman

  • Router connection problems - DISH satellite receivers or too many devices?

    (Sorry about that - I thought I had broken the message up.)
    I'm having significant issues with my Linksys router timing out, and need help. I'll try to be as detailed as I can.
    I have the following:
    - Linksys WRT54G v3 wireless router I purchased off eBay 3-4 years ago. Using 128-bit WEP secirity. Even though the model says WRT54G, my Linksys setup page says I have a WRT54GL. Don't know if that's pertinent but thought I'd include the info)
    - HP desktop running Vista Home Premium
    - Gateway Solo laptop (circa 3Q 2002) running WinXP SP3, and also have WPC54G - Wireless-G Notebook Adapter
    - Gateway M275 Notebook running Windows XP Tablet Edition w/SP3, internal wireless card
    - Linksys WRE54G Wireless Range Expander, v3
    My broadband internet connects to my cable modem, which then runs via ethernet to my router. I have my desktop connected to my router via (wired) ethernet cable (port 1), and the two laptops connect wirelessly. All three computers on my network run just fine and have had no connection issues until I had two (2) DISH satellite receivers installed this past Friday.
    Prior to installation, I knew I would need the two receivers hooked up to my network via ethernet cable. Since one receiver was in the same room as my router, it was easy to run an ethernet cable from my router to the receiver (port 2). I had a challenge with the upstairs receiver, because I didn't have a direct connection, and wasn't sure how to wire it. So, I used my range expander by plugging in the expander into a nearby outlet, then connecting the receiver to the expander via ethernet cable.
    I had some issues getting a good signal, and did some troubleshooting but made it work. Now I had five devices connected to my router: two with a wired ethernet cable and three wirelessly.
    I started having connection timeouts within about 3-4 hours of satellite [receiver] installation. All of the sudden I couldn't connect to the internet on ANY device; both laptops couldn't connect wirelessly, my desktop couldn't connect, and the receivers were telling me my connection was bad. I checked modem but there were no issues. Still, I unplugged the power cable from the modem for a minute, then reconnected - still no internet. I called my cable company to have them troubleshoot the modem, but they pinged it several times & got positive results - still no internet, so I ruled the modem out.
    I tried using the Windows connection troubleshooter to repair the problem, and got a DNS error message (which I don't know how to fix). I decided to unplug my router for 10-15 seconds, then plug back in - that got my internet connection going again. That lasted a couple hours & then failed. I unplugged the router again (is that a soft reset or a power cycle?), then reconnected & was able to connect to the internet. This happened a few more times over the weekend, and finally I decided the expander might be the issue (both DISH and Linksys tech support was not very helpful).
    I found a way to wire my second receiver via ethernet cable (port 3), so now I had three wired devices, and two wireless devices. I thought this would fix the problem; it didn't, but at least I learned how to wire CAT5 cable. So I got that going for me... which is nice.
    I plugged the ethernet cable directly from my modem to my desktop to test the timeout, but had no issues - the modem just wasn't the problem.
    I was getting some IP address conflicts on my Norton Inernet Security, so I uninstalled that from my desktop, disconnected the power from the modem, disconnected the power from the router, shut down all devices, reset the IP addresses on the receivers, deleted the wireless connection from the laptops, shut down the desktop, and just left the whole mess alone for half a day. Then I reinstalled the Norton Internet Security, connected my wired devices, plugged the modem in, plugged the router in, reset my security, connected wirelessly with my laptops.
    Within an hour my connection timed out.
    Trying to chat with tech support wasn't feasible, as my connection kept going out. A guy at work said I shoudl ping my IP address, and let it repeat until my connection goes out. So I unplugged the router and plugged it back in to get an internet connection, the opened a cmd prompt and typed
    ping 192.168.1.1 -t
    I left it alone for a few hours, and when I came back, my internet connection was down, but I was still getting active pings - no problems there.
    At this point I thought I had done everything except replacing my router (which I'm still tempted to do), but I called my broadband provider to see if there was anything they could do. One of the techs said I had too many devices connected to the internet, but I thought these routers were supposed to handle dozens of devices?
    I finally called Linksys Tech Support and had a conversation for 90 minutes. We went through all the steps of unplugging the the modem, router & all connected devices, resetting the router, etc, etc. The only thing different he did was had me change my security from WPA to 64-bit WEP, and added passwords for DNA1 and DNS 2 (same password for each).
    That was at 1:30am last night, and when I woke up to check my connection this morning, it was still connected. I have to check it again when I get home, but I'm wondering if I should just be prepared to get another router (and if so, any recommendations), or if there's something I'm still not doing that could resolve my issue - if I still have connection losses.
    Also, I'm concerned about the security thing. If changing from WEP 128 or WPA to WEP 64 fixed my problem, I'm not sure I feel completely protected from intrusion - isn't that pretty much the least amount of security I can have (without forgoing it altogether)??
    Finally, I've read a few threads suggesting possibly changing to static IP from DHCP; however, my satellite receiver installation documentation specifically advises against this for the receivers.
    Anyway, I would very much appreciate some help.

  • Too many connections - even after closing ResultSets and PreparedStatements

    I'm getting a "Too many connections" error with MySQL when I run my Java program.
    2007-08-06 15:07:26,650 main/CLIRuntime [FATAL]: Too many connections
    com.mysql.jdbc.exceptions.MySQLNonTransientConnectionException: Too many connections
            at com.mysql.jdbc.SQLError.createSQLException(SQLError.java:921)
            at com.mysql.jdbc.MysqlIO.checkErrorPacket(MysqlIO.java:2870)
            at com.mysql.jdbc.MysqlIO.checkErrorPacket(MysqlIO.java:812)
            at com.mysql.jdbc.MysqlIO.secureAuth411(MysqlIO.java:3269)
            at com.mysql.jdbc.MysqlIO.doHandshake(MysqlIO.java:1182)
            at com.mysql.jdbc.Connection.createNewIO(Connection.java:2670)I researched on this and found out that I wasn't closing the ResultSet and the PreparedStatement.
    The JDBC connection is closed by a central program that handles connections (custom connection pooling).
    I added the code to close all ResultSets and PreparedStatements, and re-started MySQL as per the instructions here
    but still get "Too many connections" error.
    A few other things come to mind, as to what I may be doing wrong, so I have a few questions:
    1) A few PreparedStatements are created in one method, and they are used in a 2nd method and closed in the 2nd method
    does this cause "Too many connections" error?
    2) I have 2 different ResultSets, in nested while loops where the outer loop iterates over the first ResultSet and
    the inner loop iterates over the second ResultSet.
    I have a try-finally block that wraps the inner while loop, and I'm closing the second ResultSet and PreparedStement
    in the inner while loop.
    I also have a try-finally block that wraps the outer while loop, and I'm closing the first ResulSet and PreparedStatement
    in the outer while loop as soon as the inner while loop completes.
    So, in the above case the outer while loop's ResultSet and PreparedStatements remain open until the inner while loop completes.
    Does the above cause "Too many connections" error?
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    The following is relevant sections of my code ( it is partially pseudo-code ) that shows the above 2 cases:
    init( Connection jdbcConnection ){
       String firstSQLStatement = "....";
       PreparedStatement ps1 = jdbcConnection.prepareStatement( firstSQLStatement );
       String secondSQLStatement = "....";
       PreparedStatement ps2 = jdbcConnection.prepareStatement( secondSQLStatement );
       String thirdSQLStatement = "....";
       PreparedStatement ps3 = null;
       ResultSet rsA = null;
       try{
            ps3 = jdbcConnection.prepareStatement( thirdSQLStatement );
            rsA = ps3.executeQuery();
            if( rsA.next() ){
                   rsA.getString( 1 );
       }finally{
            if( rsA != null )
                   rsA.close();
            if( ps3 != null )
              ps3.close();
       //Notice, how ps1 and ps2 are created here but not used immediately, but only ps3 is
       //used immediately.
       //ps1 and ps2 are used in another method.
    run( Connection jdbcConnection ){
         ResultSet rs1 = ps1.executeQuery();
            try{
               while(rs1.next()){
                    String s = rs1.getString();
                    ps2.setString(1, s);
              ResultSet rs2 = ps2.executeQuery();
                    try{
                   while(rs2.next()){
                        String s2 = rs2.getString();
                    }finally{
                   if( rs2 != null )
                     rs2.close();
                   if( ps2 != null )
                     ps2.close();
         }catch( Exception e ){
              e.printStackTrace();
         }finally{
            if( rs1 != null )
                  rs1.close();
               if( ps1 != null )
                  ps1.close();
    //Notice in the above case rs1 and ps1 are closed only after the inner
    //while loop completes.
    }I appreciate any help.

    Thanks for your reply.
    I will look at the central connection pooling mechanism ( which was written by someone else) , but that is being used by many other Java programs others have written.
    They are not getting this error.
    An addendum to my previous note, I followed the instructions here.
    http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/too-many-connections.html
    There's probably something else in my code that is not closing the connection.
    But I just wanted to rule out the fact that opening a PreparedStatement in one method and closing it in another is not a problem.
    Or, if nested ResultSet loops don't cause the problem.
    I've read in a few threads taht "Too many connections" can occur for unclosed RS and PS , and not just JDBC connections.

  • An embarrassment of riches - too many tablets! Should I consolidate and get an iPad Air?

    Currently I have the following tablets:
    - Nexus 7 2013 wifi only
    - iPad 2 32 GB wifi + cellular, but no longer in contract
    - iPad 1 wifi + cellular, no longer in contract
    - an extra iPad 1, also wifi + cellular, not in contract that I got for free for helping somebody with some computer stuff
    That same friend who gave me the iPad 1, wants to upgrade from his iPad 4th generation to an iPad Air, and he want to give me his 4th G iPad for free. It is a 64 GB wifi only model.
    The reason I never upgraded beyond the iPad 2 was because all the later models got thicker and heavier, and I thought my iPad 2 was already too heavy, which is why I got my Nexus 7. I hardly touch my iPad 2 these days. They are both within arm's reach, but the Nexus 7 is easier to hold, and allows voice input, which I often find convenient, and most of the time I reach for it. I like the voice input on my iPhone 5 too, and I feel like something is "missing" when I pick up my iPad 2. Plus it feels like it weighs a ton next to the Nexus 7.
    Well, anyway I have too many tablets. And soon I'll have the iPad 4th G. So I was thinking of selling the iPad 2, the two iPad 1s and the iPad 4 and getting an iPad Air, wifi + cellular with a data sharing plan with my iPhone 5. After all, compared to the iPad 2, the iPad Air is (1) lighter, (2) has Siri, (3) has a retina display, (4) has much better specs and (5) now the cellular model is universal, so if I take a trip to the U.S. it would be easier to use there.
    Yet there are things I now prefer about my Nexus 7 with Android 4.4 over iOS 7. Like it has better sharing features, the ability to send all kinds of attachments, more customization, better "hooks" into the UI from 3rd party apps, the ability to choose your own default mail apps and browsers. It seems just more flexible overall. And the Facebook app runs "smoother" than on my iPad 2.
    But I like iOS 7 too.
    I wonder if I would use an iPad Air any more than I do my iPad 2 since it is lighter than the recent iPads. The screen being larger might make reading magazines and news sites easier. And Siri is still better than the Android voice dictation in my opinion. Or will the weight and size actually keep driving me back to the Nexus 7?
    I guess I still haven't found the right place in my life for using a tablet for anything other than casual use. I don't want to get into a religious argument about whether tablets are production devices versus consumption devices, but basically I am in the camp that does not see them as true productivity devices. My iMac is for that.
    Conundrums, conundrums. I do have too many "devices" right now though. Within an arm's reach I can count 12 computers, tablets and phones all on wifi! Who needs that much stuff?!
    And if I do get the iPad Air, do I need 128 GB? The way they sell here in Japan, you don't put any cash down at all, and basically get an interest-free loan for 2 years. So "for just a few hundred yen more a month" you can go from the 32 GB model to the 64 GB model. And then "for just a few hundred yen more a month" you can go to the 128 GB model. It seems a waste not to get the 128 GB model. But in my current iPad 2 I only use a little more than half the current 32 GB.
    Decisions, decisions. Any thoughts?

    The weight is somewhat of an issue for me. I find the iPad 2 irritatingly heavy whenever I pick it up, and the iPad 4th generation is heavier even than my iPad 2.
    But for the amount I use it I could get used to that. That option is certainly the least headache, contract-wise, and I would avoid the ever-present possibility of dealing with AppleCare if something is "not perfect" (which it never is).
    I guess the only "practical" reason would be that I would be getting rid of all my iPads with a cellular option. So if I did make a trip to the U.S. in the spring, it would be harder to use the iPad 4. Here, in Japan, of course I could use the free tethering option on my iPhone 5.
    So I guess it is just the cellular option I'm giving up that is in the back of my mind.

  • "Too Many Real Instruments"

    I am posting this in the '09 topic, but my question really dates back to Garageband '08. I rely on Garageband often, and I'm a big fan of it. However, it contains a serious problem which I need fixed.
    I create a new project, drop a single iTunes song into it, and begin to edit. Almost every time, randomly while playing the song the "Part of the project was not played. This project has too many real instrument tracks to be played in real-time" warning message appears. I only have 1 track! Worse still, my audio driver lets out a terrible "HONK" which startles me and blasts through the entire house. After that, My sound output faintly exists until I open up Audio MIDI Setup and change a random setting on my output.
    I am quite tired of this predicament. Is there anyway to fix this (without money)?

    I was experiencing a similar problem, and I just got off the phone with applecare and went through all their steps.
    I'll try my best to recount them here. But before I do, let it be said that the tech fellow, once he heard what I was doing, exclaimed that my core problem was that I needed to be creating new projects, and not re-using the same project (ex. "My Song 2") over and over.
    What I've been doing is backing up a pile of mini-discs that have live concerts on them. A couple of hours of audio each one, and I've been recording them into Garageband. After I divide the concert up into songs and export them to itunes, I've been deleting the track in Garageband and then importing the next concert (repeat x 10 concerts).
    About 7-8 concerts in I started getting that popping sound when the sound would cut out (made the sound of depressing the safety-seal bubble on the metal lid of a jam jar). At first, quitting Garageband and opening it again would work. On the 10th concert, when the sound cut out the sound for the whole computer would stop working (itunes, volume buttons on my keyboard, everything).
    So the tech fellow said the lesson is this: create new projects. Don't be shy about it. No need to re-use and recycle in cyberspace.
    Now - my applecare steps:
    - First we went: Macintosh HD, Library, then dragged "Caches" to the trash
    - then went to Finder, Go, Utilities, Disk Utility, Macintosh HD, Repair Disk Permissions (that took some time)
    - then restarted the computer
    All seems to be well now.
    Good luck
