Gnome 3 - edit command that opens a favorites application

Is there anyway to edit the command behind an app you have on your favorites dock? I use zsh as my shell and adding an alias to my zshrc didn't seem to do the trick.
That being said - what is the underlying shell of 'Alt + F2' -- can't seem to find this answer out online. I t won't work with aliases in my zshrc either =/

Go to
/usr/share/applications
and edit the .desktop file. The exec line is the actual command to change. You can also just copy it to ~/.local/share/applications/whatever.desktop and change just for your user.

I am trying to download a calendar into ical and keep getting this message-Some of the events in this calendar have alerts that open files or applications. What am I doing wrong???

I am trying to download a calendar into ical and keep getting this message-Some of the events in this calendar have alerts that open files or applications. Remove alerts or cancel
What am I doing wrong or missing??

I have this same problem in October of 2013. I am unable to import .ics files into Lion that I exported from my Snow Leopard MacBookPro without losing all of my future events (which all have alerts attached). All of the events from BEFORE today's date are successfully importing, presumably because they are no longer expected to trigger alerts via Apple Mail. After my first unsuccessful attempt, I learned that iCal was communicating with iCloud by default. I have since turned off iCloud, but I have not found a solution to the problem. Harvey

SQL*Plus Not responding when calling edit command

When I write a Query in SQL Plus 9.2.0.1.0, Installed in Windows XP SP2, and running EDIT command, notepad opens and then SQL Plus and Notepad both hangs. By killing notepad.exe process I can continue working in SQL Plus.
I tried changing the default editor to ultra edit, wordpad, etc. But It seems to be a SQL Plus error, with all editors I set up, Editor Hangs.
The same things happende me installing the Oracle 9i client in another machine.
Need help with this, thanks!!

Sounds strange - and does not sound like a SQL*Plus problem. SQL*Plus uses the CreateProcess() Win32 API call to create the editor process. Then it waits for this process' process handle to cease to exist before it continues. SQL*Plus does not "hang" - it simply waits for the spawned process to terminate before it continues.
It is not possible for one process to "hang" another process it created via the CreateProcess() call. It will need to interact with that spawned process in other ways to make it hang. Caveat: unless the spawned process does not "like" the parameters passed to it via the CreateProcess() call...
The only parameter passed is the filename (usually afiedt.buf) by SQL*Plus - and that should not cause the editor to hang.
Unless there is a specific Oracle bug you're running in, this problem sounds more like a Windows issue. After using the ED command in SQL*Plus, can you manually view and edit the afiedt.buf file it created?

I have an old mpg video file, taken with a very early model "smart phone", that opens and plays fine in my newly "rebuilt" iPhoto library. I cannot open, edit it or share it with any other software. How can I fix it, to be able to do anything with it?

Detail:
I've recently purchaced a 4TB Thunderbolt drive to store my "vast" music and photo libraries. iPhoto had an issue reading the moved library, so I bought and used iPhoto Library Manager to "rebuild" it. Apart from much of the original data such as date taken & camera used etc, it appears to be working well. The aforementioned mpg video was taken some 9 years ago, using an early model "iMate" smart phone, and opens and plays fine on iPhoto, but I cannot open it with anything else, (I've tried iMovie, VLC players, Wondershare and Handbrake) nor can I share it. I just want to edit it, and share it with family.
Any help would be appreciated...

No - not iMovie, VLC, Wondershare or Handbrake... Quick time starts with a "CONVERTING", then I get
I've looked at the "tell me more" links, tried downloading some of the movie players there. I'm begining to think the file is corrupt.

When I highlight photo's in bridge and then click open in camera raw this message comes up... Camera Raw Editing Is not enabled...Camera raw editing requires that a qualifying product has been launched at least once to enable this feature. I have used camera raw a different way but it won't seem to work with bridge.

Have you opened Photoshop or any other Adobe app that Bridge works with? You need to do this if you've upgraded PS or just signed up for CC.

In Callmanager Express and SRST, you can block certain patterns and therefore certain dial peers based on time of day, day of week, and date. See the following links.

How can I open and edit files that were developed and published by ftp to my host on my old macbook, which I can no longer access.

How can I open and edit files that were developed and published via ftp to my host on my old macbook, which I can no longer access. The HD containing the files cannot be accessed. I want to be able to download the published files to be edited in iweb?

You CAN'T download published files and then edit them in iWeb because iWeb can't open them - it has no import facility so is unable to open any html or css files - a previously published site.
You can download these files yes, but you'll need to use them as a guide or to cut and paste text from there whilst you re-build your site in iWeb.
The only other way is to download the files and then open them with an html editor such as TextWrangler or use one of the other web design programmes out there that is capable of importing html and css such as Dreamweaver of Flux 4.
These are your only alternatives as iWeb can't import and if you want to continue to use iWeb, then you'll have to re-build your site from scratch. If you do just remember to back up your domain.sites file this time around - it is found under your User/Library/Applicaion Support/iWeb/domain.sites.

Is there an Application that opens and edits mpeg movie files

Is there an Application that opens and edits mpeg movie files

At what level do you want to do video editing? There are a number of apps that will work with mpeg files available in the App Store, just search on mpeg. If you want to do heavy duty video editing and work there is always Final Cut Pro X...but that costs $299.99 US...and will do anything and everything.

Edit in Photoshop opens wrong location

This is strange. I have been a user of Lightroom and Photoshop since their first versions. I am running an early 2011 MacBook Pro with the latest versions of everything. I subscribe to Creative Cloud.
Until recently, choosing to edit a file in Photoshop via Lightroom's "edit in" resulted in the file opening my Photoshop application on my boot drive. Now, it defaults to opening the file for editing using the Photoshop application on my backup drive, which is a 2 1/2" drive stuck in a USB "toaster" and much slower. I am using Carbon Copy Cloner to perform hourly backups. This also occurs if I open a file through Bridge. When edited, the edited file gets saved in the correct location on my boot drive. I have tried everything that I know to change this. It has to be an "Adobe" thing, because if I simply open the file directly from the finder, it is opened by the Photoshop on my boot drive. Does anyone have a solution to this?
Thanks in advance . . . . .

This page might have information that will help – look for the Mac-specific section:
http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/multi/edit-photoshop-command-missing-photoshop.html
In your situation you might want to temporarily remove your external drive just before deleting your plist file, and get things working with the internal-drive-PS, before hooking up the external drive, again.

Command to open a PDF generated Oracle Report in New browser window

I know this is probably something for the Oracle Forums but I'll ask anyway because I can't find any info out there on this, without some extra work.
I am generating a PDF file from 10g Oracle reports on Linux RHEL 5 and storing the PDF file to the server. I can send that PDF file directly to a printer with the "lpr" command and that part works fine.
What I'm wanting to do now is "View" the PDF from within the server in a new window. We are using RHEL 5 (Linux) platform and I'm trying to see if there is a way to open the file with a "command line" command that will open it in a new browser window or new window period (opening it with Adobe Acrobat).
Does anyone have a command that will do this? Otherwise, how has everyone else been handling this. The idea of just viewing the previously generated PDF Report file will save us overhead on our database servers because they won't have to re-run some of the same reports over and over.
Any help and assistance is appreciated.
Chris

Several options:
- If you only want to show the pdf to the client without printing, use destype=cache and use WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT after the RUN_REPORT_OBJECT (for examples search the forms-forum, there are lots)
-If you have to generate the pdf to a file to get it printed, you could
+use WEBUTIL_FILETRANSFER.AS_TO_CLIENT after the printing to transfer the file to the client, then use CLIENT_HOST to view it.
+map the appserver-directory you generate the report to as a virtual directory in the application-server then use WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT to directly access the generated file via url.

HT204053 Since I completed the last iPad update I no longer have access to history. That tab in favorites shows a blank page.

That tab on favorites page opens a blank page. Does have anything to do with private browsing?

If you are using private browsing then yes, your browsing history will not be stored or accessible - you will need to exit private browsing. From the iPad manual :
Visit sites without making history. Tap Private while viewing your open pages or bookmarks. Sites you visit will no longer be added to History on your iPad.

Edit in Photoshop opens images upside down

I'm using Lightroom 2.0 and PhotoShop CS3.
I'm on an Intel Mac running Leopard, with Lightroom 2.0 and Photoshop 10.0.1
I have a problem with opening images in Photoshop from Lightroom where those images were taken on a particular camera - a Fuji FinePix 9500.
Choosing Edit in Photoshop CS3 from the Lightroom Library module opens these images upside down.
Choosing Open as smart object in Photoshop also opens these images upside down.
The images are DNG files but trying the same action with the original RAW files displays the same problem.
Opening the same files directly into Photoshop CS3 displays the images correctly.
Opening the same files from Bridge CS3 displays the images correctly
Opening the same files from Lightroom version 1 displayed the images correctly.
Opening files from an older Fuji FinePix 4900 open correctly in Photoshop.
In Lightroom itself, the thumbnails, loupe views and slideshow images are all oriented correctly.
Can anyone shed any light on this?
David Wood

Probably the same bug that opens my D70 images rotated 90 degrees. No problems with my other cameras, only the D70. Adobe know about it, but it would be worth logging your bug on their report form:-

Camera Raw editing is not enabled. Camera Raw editing requires that a qualifying product has been launched at least once to enable this feature.This appears when the open in camera raw disc is clicked in bridge. any solutions??

Hi,
Open Adobe Photoshop first. Open a Camera Raw file in Photoshop.
Then open Bridge from within Photoshop from File> Browse in Bridge.
Then try to open Raw files in Bridge. That should work.
We need to launch the parent product of Bridge first ( in this case Photoshop). Then we need to open the images in Bridge and it should work normally.
Thank you,

"Camera Raw Not Enabled" Camera Raw editing requires that a qualifying product has been launched at least once to enable this feature.

I upgraded my computer yesterday to a Mac Mini 2014 from a Mac Mini 2011. Restored the drive from Time Machine. The message I received when trying to use Photoshop was I had to many computer enabled. The option was to disable the other two and use this one, which I did. I tried to open a JPG in ACR and got the message "Camera Raw Not Enabled" Camera Raw editing requires that a qualifying product has been launched at least once to enable this feature". If I open a Canon RAW file Adobe Camera Raw opens normally. Stumped.

The problem cleared itself. Don't have a clue why.

Hi Nealeh
Thanks i think I got it working of a fashion.
Except the replace colour, does not seem to end up with the colour I picked using the picker tool. Its as though it hads not replaced the colour but blended in the desired colour with the old incorrect colour!
Buy trial and error picking not the right colour but close - which when mixed with the existing colour is close.
Sorry I can't post the pictures as the Lingerie Mfg, has me under non disclosure.
The scenario is:- say a blonded mainly tanned model a high cut [at the hips] corsette style basque, with an ultra low bra line.
Our dear model, has just come back from St Barts with a fabulous Tan, and equally striking bold Tan lines!.
So we have great tanned legs, then the 'porcelain white band' where her swimsuit was.
Likewise we have a tanned face, and arms, shoulders etc and a great tan on the top of the cleavage, then it stops, white band to the top of the ultralow cut bra line of the basque.
She must have lived in like the most conservative bikini on the planet [50's style], for 2 weeks!
Had she had a normal skimpy bikini on, no problem!
If i don't solve it, she will get fired!
Not a lack of interest in your post, but I was out, and tried to log in to this site; which I could do, on my iPad Air / 5 [whatever its the new one]. And tried to 'sign in' - but it just hung at the
"Join Adobe Community" adobe sign in splash screen! with he little whell spinning around continuously!!!
I have Safari on this iPad. Guess that is all it runs.
So technology is not my friend today!
