Getting around counterfeit laws to open a $20 bill in Photoshop
I'm trying to create a $20 coupon with using an actual $20 bill as a template, but due to counterfiet laws, Photoshop wont even allow me to open up the picture in the program. Is there anyway around this??
If you follow the link that the program sends you to, the website says:
"Every country has legal restrictions on the reproduction of banknote images. The counterfeiting of currency is a crime, and while restrictions vary from country to country, in some countries, any reproduction of banknote images – even for artistic or advertising uses – is strictly forbidden. Even in countries that allow some limited use of banknote images, there are specific rules and requirements. This website will provide you with information about reproducing banknote images and links to country-specific websites for further guidance.
While the overall economic losses to society from counterfeiting of currency are generally limited, the victims who suffer the most harm are individuals and businesses, because no one reimburses those who accept counterfeit notes. Counterfeit currency can also undermine confidence in the payment system, making the public uncertain about accepting cash for transactions.
The Central Bank Counterfeit Deterrence Group (CBCDG) is responsible for this website. A counterfeit deterrence system (CDS) has been developed by the CBCDG to deter the use of personal computers, digital imaging equipment, and software in the counterfeiting of banknotes. The CDS has been voluntarily adopted by hardware and software manufacturers, and prevents personal computers and digital imaging tools from capturing or reproducing the image of a protected banknote. The technology does not have the capacity to track the use of a personal computer or digital imaging tools."
I cannot give you advice about how to circumvent this, though it seems to me that there is good reason for this feature.

I accepted/installed an update for iMovie and it turns out that this version is not compatible with my graphics card. So now I can no longer open or use iMovie. Any ideas on how to get around this - how to revert to the previous version??
Look in your Applications folder. If your system behaved as expected, you should have an iMovie 9.0 folder in your Applications folder. Apple moved the old version there as even they suspected the new versions was a train wreck.

I need to install iWork 09 so I can open the many pages document files that will NOT open under the new pages 5. Mavericks will not accept an install from my iWork's 09 CD. How do I get around this?
Hi, I'm helping StringSinger2 with this problem.
The previously installed version is Pages 3.0.3 (the same as from iWork 08). This version (Pages 3.0.3/iWork 08) is incompatible with Pages 5.
That is why it would be helpful to install iWork 09, which is the version between the two. It will open the older 08 files, and its saved files are readable by the new Pages5.
SO...
When I try to install iWorks 09 from my retail DVD the error message is "the installer is damaged". (I know the dvd is good, I installed iWorks09 to my laptop today.) Is the "installer" part of the system files? And - If that is damaged is there a patch for that?
Many Thanks! -
Flash CS6 cant open play SWF files without importing and destroying them, how can I get around this?
Flash CS6 can't open play SWF files without importing and destroying them, how can I get around this?
I'm just trying to preview an swf file in flash like I have with all previous versions.What if my SWF loads external content from an online server?
Not only does the current flash player prohibit such activity, it doesn't even pop open an error anymore saying there was an error connecting to an online source.
Normally, I would simply drag the SWF into Flash and all connections would go through. I could see traces, errors, and experience no issues.
Now I can't even do that. So what then? You have crippled a fundamental use of the program, but THANK GOD we have that deco brush that nobody asked for.
And for the record, the nature of my work benefits from not necessarily allowing the Flash Player to connect to online content. The error it pops up? That's simply another method of error checking that I require. Updating the Flash Player options is not an option.
Why would you even remove this key feature from Flash anyways? It's been there for years ... has the ratio of people importing SWFs (a rather useless gesture in an increasing OOP world) really outweighed the people using Flash as a testing environment that much? -
I downloaded Axis from Yahoo. The next day Firefox would not open at all. I removed and tried to reinstall. Now whenever I try to reinstall Firefox, windows asks me to enter a password before I can install. How do I get around this?
Yes, sometimes the problem can happen before the window is able to show up.
As for the administrator password I'll double check if that's normal or also a symptom, but helping you with the password is not our area of expertise, you'd need to get support from Microsoft. Do you know if your account is admin or limited? You can try putting your credentials in. -
My device is disabled and I can't open/unlock it to trust the computer so I need to know how do I get around this problem please. I don't mind restoring it updating anything that will work
Follow the instructions in the support document that you linked to the forum with. See the section about not syncing. You will probably need to erase it in iCloud to be able to restore it as new. Remove the device from your iCloud account which will disable Find My iPhone.

UNIX command open. How do I get around warning screens?
Hello
I am trying to run an installation of an app program through UNIX commands, since I want to deploy it using ARD. This app is actually an Adobe CS5 update. I managed to get it the installation started using the OPEN unix command. However, I am prompted with a security warning "Installer" is an application downloaded from the insternet. Are you sure you want to open it" Of course the answer would be yes, but I want to do this with no user intervension. Any ideas to get around this?Automating as far as building disk images, or packaging for mass deployment on an ad hoc basis?
As far as building disk images goes, you might want to get into InstaDMG to build fresh, never-booted OS images. For packaging and deployment on an Ad Hoc basis, there are a number of options: Radmind (although this deals less with packaging and IMO acts more like DeepFreeze), Casper Admin Suite (I use this tool), Munki, etc. There's also DeployStudio but I don't know much about this one.
Munki, DS, and Radmind are free/open source, Casper is pricey, but worth it if you have a large number of macs to manage. -
Recently I updated to Maverick -- I also updated Numbers, Pages and Keynote. NOW, I cannot open my pages documents. I get a message that I need a newer version of Pages. I have the newest version (5.2). How do I get around this to view my documents?
You have 2 versions of Pages on your Mac.
Pages 5.2 is in your Applications folder.
Pages '09/'08 is in your Applications/iWork folder.
You are alternately opening the wrong versions.
Pages '09/'08 can not open Pages 5 files and you will get the warning that you need a newer version.
Pages 5.2 can open Pages '09 files but may damage/alter them. It can not open Pages '08 files at all.
Older versions of Pages 5 can not open files from later versions of Pages 5.
Once opened and saved in Pages 5 the Pages '09 files can not be opened in Pages '09.
Anything that is saved to iCloud and opened in a newer version of Pages is also converted to Pages 5 files.
All Pages files no matter what version and incompatibility have the same extension .pages.
Pages 5 files are now only compatible with themselves on a very restricted set of hardware, software and Operating Systems and will not transfer correctly on any other server software than iCloud.
Apple has removed almost 100 features from Pages 5 and added many bugs:

I have a new email address but when I am asked to sign in with my Apple ID for Apple store my iPad automatically shows my old email and rejects my password. How do I get around this?
I kind of agree with Philly on this one. If you get a new email address, there is no need to establish an entirely new account to use that address. You just need to modify your account to show the new email address. This way all your purchase history and rights to purchased apps stays in place. Creating a new iTunes/Apple account each time your email address changes really doesn't make sense in my opinion. I only point this out for future searchers who end up on this thread.

If anybody knows anything to get around this please let me know
Police also could not find the owner so i don't know what to do.

I can't get Pages 5.01 to open Pages files from iCloud, although they open in iCloud Pages without difficulty.
I am using the most up to date version of Mavericks and Pages and can log into iCloud without any problems. Is this just a glitch? The files all behaved properly under previous versions and the initial release of the new version of Pages.Pages for iCloud beta is a weird beast and as it says "beta".
I think it is the least compatible of all the many different .pages files floating around out there.

Can thieves get around Find My iPhone in the iOS 7 version?
Yesterday at the Seahawks game my 5S (32gb, gold) fell out of my pocket when I was jumping like crazy during a Marshawn Lynch touchdown. Someone right next to us picked it up and turned it off right away. My husband immediately put it into "stolen" mode in Find My iPhone, and it had been maybe 10 minutes at the most since it fell out of my pocket.
We did all the right stuff--that phone won't work on the AT&T network at all, we keep checking in with security to see if someone it was left in the stadium, the Seattle PD has an open case, and Apple has the relevant info with the serial number and such. It had a passcode lock plus my fingerprint ID in use.
Unfortunately, the thief still hasn't turned it back on. And I've tried researching but wanted to see if you smart people have any insight here--is there a way someone can still get around this? Like, is there a sophisticated way they could jam the cell signal, not turn on wifi, and somehow break into the phone and jailbreak it or whatever? Or is there hardwired means that the serial number or whatever Apple accesses to ID it as a stolen device just can't be overcome?
Basically, I REALLY hope that it's a brick with absolutely no way to overcome it and by some miracle the phone gets turned in. Our son, who is almost 3, has autism and doesn't speak. The other day he started pointing out letters to me and saying them and it was such a beautiful moment and I grabbed my phone and got it on video, plus I got some cool videos of the actual Seahawks game. We're HUGE fans and only go about once a year. So I'd really love to, by some miracle, get those back.
BUT if I can't get the phone back, ever, I REALLY just want the peace of mind that it's an unusable brick and there's no way that some ahole out there is going around using my phone, nor that they were able to make it usable and sell it and some unknowing person paid $600 and now gets to use my stolen phone.
Anyway, when I called Apple the guy said there's no way that phone can ever be used, no matter what, unless they put in our Apple ID and password, and that it is completely impossible to break into the software and wipe it without accessing the internet, which means we would immediately get the location notification. Even the police officer who took my report said she doesn't understand why people steal iPhones because they are complete bricks and there's no way around it. Still, I just feel like if that were true people wouldn't keep stealing iPhones.
So do any of you have any insight? Thanks for entertainging my obsessing over this shat situation.I should clarify: I didn't know it fell out, but I check my phone often enough that there were only about 10 minutes between when I last put it in my pocket and then realized it wasn't there.
We asked everyone around us if they saw it, and like 10 people were helping us look. But my husband used Find My iPhone and the Prey app right away when we realized it was missing (again, at most 15 minutes from the last time I used it) and it was already in offline / "cannot locate" mode. -
How can I get around recovering a data file that doesn't need to be??
Sorry I am opening a new thread, but this is the biggest emergency of my 20+ year career.
Oracle 11g
1) redo logs were deleted
2) We don't do backups of the database. It is only used to demo our product, it is not a prod database
3) To get around the problem of the redo logs (which caused Oracle not able to start) I rebuilt the control file with the RESETLOGS option on
Now, when I try to start the database and open it with alter database open resetlogs; I get this:
alter database open resetlogs
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-01113: file 1 needs media recovery
ORA-01110: data file 1: '/u01/oradata/orcl/system01.dbf'
I don't understand why it wants this and I have no idea to get around it. I don't know what to recover FROM as I already said there are no backups. But why should I have to recover anything, there never was any data loss, only the redo logs were deleted. Why can't I just tell Oracle to forget the recovery, the data files are fine?Yeah, it was a waste of effort to rebuild your control file. Oracle needs the redologs to perform instance recovery prior to opening the database. That doesn't change just because the control file is rebuilt.
But you unfortunately don't have the necessary redo log file and no database backup. That means you are in real danger of losing your database completely. If you have a current support contract, you need to open a Service Request with Oracle support to see if you can salvage your database.
As P. Forstmann indicates, there is an undocumented way to try to open a database that is missing needed redo log data. But trying and failing may leave you worse off than you are right now. So contacting Oracle support for guidance is the right approach.
