G5( DVD SP4) WILL NOT READ AC-3 Files

I have spent more time and read more papers on Compressor and DVD P4 than on any other Apple software.
I have encoded from FCP4.5 a 27 min project using compressor, all the settings seem fine and the visuals are good.
I import the assets into DVD 4 and they import all ok and I get green lights on the asset log etc.
In the timeline the visuals are ok but I cannot get the ac-3 Dolby to read at all.
I have imported the pcm sound directly into DVD and it works fine as do Aiff files.
I have updated all my software to check I have all the codecs etc and all is up to date.
I have re-encoded the sound again and checked all the settings and the same thing happened. DVD S is not reading the dolby sound.
The data seems to be there ok but the silence is deafening!!

How are you monitoring your audio? Analogue or SP/DIF (optical output).
Have you set your audio output preferences in the SImulator tab of your DVDSP preferences?
Check your audio output settings in your "Audio MIDI Setup" utility as well.

CD/DVD Drive will Not read CD/DVDs

This desktop is only about 3 months old and so far has worked great!! But since last week for some reason the CD/DVD Drive will not read any disc. The tray will open but then nothing happens at all once a CD/DVD is in. Doesn't even sound like it is spinning. Any ideas?? Please help!! Thanks!!

Also it is running Windows 8 and is a Ideacentre K410. And the CD/DVD Drive it is showing I have installed is TSSTCorpDVD-RW SH-216BB Not sure if that has always been the drive or not.

I have iphoto '08 version with an imac osx 10.5.8. It will not read my RAW files from my Nikon D800 - a very new model.How can I get it to read my RAW files?

my somewhat old imac osx 10.5.8 with iphoto '08 will not read my RAW files from my new Nikon D800 camera - a new model on the market( 5 months or so). How can I get iphoto to read my RAW files?

iPhoto 08 would not read RAW files from that new a camera. You need to upgrade so you can get more up-to-date version of OS X and iPhoto. Another possiblity is see if iPhoto 11 will run on 10.5.8, if so you should update. You can also attempt to run Software Update and see if it finds a newer release of iPhoto 08 that supports newer RAW formats.

Photoshop CS6 will not read my raw files

I have both a Canon 5D Mark 3 and a Canon 70D and CS6 will not read my RAW files. I have to convert them to DNG to work on them. Suggestions?

According to this Adobe help link, the 5D Mark III had support since Camera Raw version 7.1 and the 70D had support since version 8.2, which CS6 should support fully. (CS6 supports up to the latest Camera Raw, which is version 8.7 as of this post.)
Is everything updated? (Help > Updates in Photoshop.)

Air App will not read local text file using openAsync/readUTFBytes on user (non-admin) mode

I am running an Air App I did for the desktop, from the actual installed executable already deployed in the machine (Not from Flash Pro / Flex dev. environment). For some reason the app will not read a text file stored in the same application folder unless I run my app as administrator from the OS.
When I run the app as admin, or within the development environment it works fine. Maybe this is related to some security issue? I read the adobe air documentation, and this should work...
I am using openAsync/readUTFBytes on user as shown here:
var continueGamesConnection:FileStream();
var continueFile:File = new File(File.applicationDirectory.resolvePath("continueGames.txt").nativePath.toString());
continueGamesConnection.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, openSavedGames);
continueGamesConnection.openAsync(continueFile, FileMode.UPDATE);
function openSavedGames(event:Event):void
     continueGamesConnection.removeEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, openSavedGames);
     var content:URLVariables = new URLVariables();
     var loadedContent:String = new String();
     loadedContent = continueGamesConnection.readUTFBytes(continueGamesConnection.bytesAvailable);
     content.decode(loadedContent);
     variableX = content. variableX
     //etc, etc.
     continueGamesConnection.close();
By the way, I have also, tried using FileMode.READ, and others, and it still gives me the same problem. Only works if ran on admin mode or from the dev. environment.
It's very frustrating, I tried reading other posts without any luck... What solutions do people use for this kind of problem?
I have seen that you can set the app to run as admin somehow, and I guess that could work. However, this should work just fine, since it doesn't seem to violate any of the security APIs of Air. Seems like an overkill. But even so, how do I do that?
You help is greatly appreciated!

Thanks kglad.com. I will try this and see if it works. Can you check my code a bit to see if it's right?
var continueFile:File = new File(File.applicationStorageDirectory.resolvePath("savedgames/continueGames.txt").nativePath.toString());
Does this look right to work across all desktop OS?

DVD drive will not read DVD-Roms

I recently tried to reinstall a game that I had played previously, only to find that my drive will not read it. I can hear the disk spinning, but my computer will not recognize that there is a disk in the drive. I tried some of my other games and I noticed that all of the older games, that ran on CD-Rom, had no trouble installing, while the ones that ran on DVD-Rom never showed up in the drive.
This is strange because I have installed all of these DVD-Rom games on my laptop before with no problem. I've tried doing simple fixes, like updating everything and uninstalling then reinstalling the drivers, but nothing helps.

Hi,
If it worked before then try few System Restore points and check. Could have happened due to some update.
Also provide the Product number of your notebook if restore doesnt help.
Note:
If you have HP Support Assistant installed on the computer(The Blue Question Mark) then open it ==> Complete all pending Updates & Tuneups==> Restart and Check. It may solve your problem
Although I am an HP employee, I am speaking for myself and not for HP.

I've installed Adobe Reader twice and it still will not read a PDF file. What's up?

I've installed Adober Reader twice now and it still will not read a PDF. What's up?

I have the same problem. Adobe Reader worked fine until the last few days. I run Windows 7 and all I get is a small black cross in the top left corner of the screen. I can open downloaded pdf files, but not anything new from the internet.
I uninstalled and reinstalled the program and have run every type of scan I know of without any change.
This seems to be a common and recent problem, so I would like to know what's being done about it.

Lightroom will not read sony ARW files

I understood the latest version of Lightroom supported the recent Sony A7 series, whose RAW files are Sony's own ARW files. I have the latest Lightroom but it will not read these files.

Here is a list of the Sony A7 series cameras that Lightroom supports, and the version of Lightroom required. The Lightroom versions are in the highlighted area.
If you are certain you have the appropriate version of Lightroom installed, then provide more information. Can your operating system browser see the raw files? Have they been downloaded to your hard drive? What operating system are you using? What is the exact version of Lightroom?

Will not read D800 NEF files

Lightroom will not read Nikon D800 NEF files. I have updated lightroom twice, first to 4.1 and second to 4.2 and in neither case would the files import. I have read several forum entries that say these files are compatible with Lightroom and/or to update Lightroom. Anyone have an answer? This is getting really aggravating!

Nikon Transfer is obsolete and should not be used. The Transfer option of an up-to-date ViewNX2 should be ok. I would hesitate to use something that tries to be very consumer friendly like Windows Photo Transfer in case it is extracting JPG previews from the NEFs instead of actually transferring the NEF files, unchanged, but if you can determine they are really raw files, not just JPGs or JPGs renamed to NEF, then it’s probably ok—the NEFs will be much larger than the JPGs so that’s a way to tell. I think you should test with a few photos, waiting long enough to make sure you do actually get previews rendered in LR’s Import area.
Personally I just use Windows Explorer and copy the files from my card in a card-reader to my local hard-drive then do an LR Add Import from there. I use a codec-pack that allows Windows Explorer to let me see the JPG-previews that are embedded into the raw files so I am not copying blind.

Lightroom 5 will not read my card files

Hi,
Please provide more information ... such as:
- What are you trying to do? e.g. "Trying to import images from CF Card I get this message"
- What PC are you using? e.g. "Mac, PC, memory etc"
It is quite a cryptic thread but it sounds like you are trying to import directly from a CF Card, if you are copy the images to the hard disk then import.

CS6 will not read 70D raw files?

OK. I just upgraded from a 60D to a 70D and I am so in love BUT my RAW file can not be read by my Photoshop CS6. Do I need to upgrade? Yes, normally the camera's come with their own EOS Utility image upload but my computer will not recognize that either.... HELP PLEASE!! I need to edit photo in RAW not JPEG!
Thanks,
ME

In your case it would be Photoshop>About Plug-in>Camera Raw
Click on words Camera Raw to display the version.
Unfortunately, camera raw 8.4 won't work on mac os x 10.6.8, but camera raw 8.3 will and should open the canon 70D files
Download this installer for camera raw 8.3 and see if it works:

Reader will not read my pdf files. after an automatic update the pdf files are not accessable.

adobe automatic update to XI caused the reader of my pdf files to stop working. The reader tries to open -- the adobe reader window opens for a few seconds, nothing in the window is activated -- then the window automatically closes.
I have uninstalled and reinstalled previous versions that used to work but the reader 9 and X now do the same thing. open, unactivated window after a few seconds the program then shuts down.
I cannot open and read any pdf file on this computer.
There are no error messages and everything seems normal. The program does not work properly.
I have ran the windows diagnostic tools to no avail.
This computer operates windows 7

See if you can open the EULA.exe file in the folder that contains the install of Reader or Acrobat.
