Gnome does not recognize flac mime-type

Although listed in the file types configuration tool, and also present in the gnome-vfs mime data with both extension and file-sniffer identification, nautilus nor rhythmbox will recognize any flac files as such, leaving them as application/octet-stream.
I am running gnome 2.6, and have noticed that flac is not present in the shared-mime-info data (i.e. /usr/share/mime). I will try to audio/x-flac to shared-mime-info, but I would also like to know if anyone else is having these problems.

Incase anyone else does have this problem (rhythmbox refuses to open flac files), I have now solved it by adding the audio/x-flac type to the shared-mime-info. If anyone wants it I can supply the files that need to go into /usr/share/mime. After that an update-mime-database /usr/share/mime will make everything work. I can't be bothered to post it if no-one wants it though. It might just be my screwy system..

When I try to click on a download link for a .pdf file Firefox does not recognize the MIME type and tries to download the file as "index.php"

When visiting a site I frequent I tried to download a linked .pdf file. Previously I've used Firefox 7.0.1 to download the link with no problem. Using Firefox 8 however I the browser does not recognize the .pdf link's mime type. Instead of recognizing the download link as a .pdf file Firefox 8 tries to download it as "index.php". Firefox 8 does this with .doc files and .txt files as well. When I downgrade to 7.0.1 again the problem disappears.

Hi hakmacpace,
I'd try starting Firefox in [[Safe Mode]]. If you don't have the issue while all of your add-ons, extensions, and themes are disabled, you can try adding them back in one by one until you find the culprit. You should look at the [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting-extensions-themes Extensions and Themes troubleshooting guide ] and the [[Troubleshooting plugins]] article as well.
You could also try [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Managing-profiles?s=create+a+new+profile&r=2&e=es&as=s#w_creating-a-profile Creating a new profile].
Hopefully this helps!

Font Book does not recognize some Postscript type 1 font files

I am new to OS X and am trying to copy all of the fonts used under OS 9 (using Suitcase) to be available under OS X. I have copied all of my font folders into the correct location, but some of them do not appear in the font list within Font Book, and if I try to use the Add Fonts... menu to select these files they are grayed out.
The Finder shows all the problem fonts to be "PostScript Type 1 outline font", just as for the files which do work. Is there any reason some files may not work in the Font Book? Note that if the files are corrupted, I don't understand because they were (and still are) working fine under the Classic environment.
I'm not sure, but I don't think any of my TrueType files have similar problems. I have noticed that all of the PostScript Type 1 fonts which do work have an additional suitcase file in the folder, whereas the problem fonts do not. Does Font Book require a suitcase file to properly recognize and use the Type 1 files? I thought that the suitcase only contained the bitmapped fonts which are obsolete to OS X, but that's a guess...
Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Hi roxlankford,
Font Book can read PostScript fonts. But, as you've noted, you don't have the whole font. Type 1 PostScript fonts are a set. One file is a suitcase containing all of the low res bitmap screen fonts. The rest are the outline printer fonts. As an example, here's Adobe Garamond.
Adobe Garamond
AGarBol
AGarBolIta
AGarIta
AGarReg
AGarSem
AGarSemIta
The first file which I highlighted in green is the font suitcase of bitmap screen fonts. The rest are the outline printer fonts.
1) The files for a Type 1 PostScript font must have both the screen and printer fonts for a given set in order to work. They also must be in the same folder.
2) The suitcase of bitmap fonts will work alone, but output will be terrible since the system will print the fonts using the 72 dpi screen fonts in the suitcase if the outline portions are missing.
3) Having only the outline fonts will not work. You will get exactly what you are having problems with. You can see the fonts, but Font Book won't load them. That's not a problem with Font Book itself. No font manager will load outline fonts without the matching suitcase of screen fonts present.

WebDynpro Does Not Recognize the Data Type

I've had this problem happen to me before, but I can't remember how to resolve it. Basically, there is an SAP tutorial on the GeoMap that says to create a contect attribute with a type of com.sap.ide.webdynpro.uielementdefinitions.GeoObject
When I go to the properties on the context attribute, and click "..." I select "Java Native Type". Then I enter in the type above, and I get an error saying, "Type not found in the scope of the current project".
Do I have to do something prior to assigning the type so that it recognizes the GeoObject. If I search the Java Native Types, there are other GeoObject, but they are not the right ones.
Any help in this one would be appreciated.
Regards,
Tom

This is a Java DDIC type. You may assign it to the context attribute by selecting "Dictionary simple type", choose package com.sap.ide.webdynpro.uielementdefinitions" and here you find type "GeoObject".
For reasons of backward compatibility, the DDIC types for the UI element libraries Core, Standard and BusinessGraphics are all located in this package. For every other UI element library, the package is "com.sap.ide.webdynpro.uielementlibraries.<libraryName>".
General rule: Context attributes to which UI element properties are bound must have DDIC type, not Java native type.

InDesign CC does not recognize some Open Type Fonts (OTF)

The fonts in question work in Illustrator CC and Photoshop CC. The fonts are activated using Font Agent Pro 6.204 on a MBP 17" 2.3 GHz Intel Core i7 16 GB ram running OSX 10.9.4. The fonts are available and used system wide, well except for inDesign CC. Thanks in advance for any help. d

Avenir and ITC Franklin Gothic are two that I'm working on now. Both of those fonts are used in two different files created with inDesign CS3.

Organizer (PSE 8) does not recognize DNG files

I recently upgraded to Elements 8 for Windows. Although I can load DNG files in to Editor, work with them and save them, the Organizer says it does not recognize this file type and will not load DNG files. In Windows Explorer, I had to associate my DNG files (I use XP) as being an Adobe Elements file so the install program clearly dropped the ball. Did not have this problem with Elements 7. Organizer recognizes my Camera RAW files just fine.

I am able to get DNG files in PSE Organizer 8.0 and didnot see any issue.
Could you restart your system and see if it works!

HT3819 My iPad will not allow me to type in my password. Curser is blinking but what i begin typing it just does not recognize that i am printing

Is there any process I can use to allow me to type into my iPad my password. When I open up the device it sets itself up for me to type in my password. The cursor is blinking, the key pad comes up but it does not recognize that I am typing in the password. The cursor remains in the same position. However it will still play a sideshow of my photos, play music but I cant get into the iPad to operate it to get emails, or operate Safari etc. Is there any thing I can do other than take it to a technician? .

"Could not complete your request because Photoshop does not recognize this type of file."

I am using the latest version of Photoshop CC. When I attempt to open a recent .psd file listed in the Open Recent list, I get the message "Could not complete your request because Photoshop does not recognize this type of file." I can use the open command to open these files with no problem. The files are not damaged or missing the .psd extension and open normally except when using the Open Recent menu. OS is Mac 10.8.5. Thanks for any clues as to a fix.

As weid as it may sound: simply don't use "Open recent...". Use Bridge to manage, find and start them in PS.

Recently upgraded to a Canon Mark 3 and now having issues with my RAW files in Bridge and Photoshop. I am operating with CS4. Photoshop produces an error " Could not complete your request because photoshop does not recognize this type of file"

Recently upgraded to a Canon Mark 3 and now having issues with my RAW files in Bridge and Photoshop. I have operating with CS4. Photoshop produces and error " Could not complete your request because photoshop does not recognize this type of file"

Assuming you mean 5D Mark III, Photoshop CS4 cannot directly open raw files from your camera.
Generally speaking, Adobe stopped updating older versions to be able to read raw files from newer cameras when they released a new major version of Photoshop. Photoshop CS4 is no longer receiving Camera Raw updates.
You can double check this yourself:
First you need to determine whether Adobe has released support for your new camera in your version of Photoshop. To do that, look at these two pages. You'll want to find out the earliest version of Camera Raw that can support your camera, then what version of Photoshop can run that version of Camera Raw.
Camera Raw plug-in | Supported cameras
Camera Raw-compatible Adobe applications
If you find your camera is supported by your version of Photoshop, you need to download the latest update for Camera Raw. There's more information on how to do that here:
Keeping Photoshop Up-To-Date
If your version of Photoshop cannot support your camera, you can download and install the latest version of the free Adobe DNG Converter, which can take your raw files as input and put out DNG format files, which your version of Photoshop can open.
Photoshop Help | Digital Negative (DNG)
The DNG converter DOES work, but if you want maximal quality from your raw files (not to mention the convenience and ease of use of directly opening your raw files) you'll want the latest version of Photoshop. Adobe has made substantial improvements in raw conversion quality in recent years.

The only thing I did different about the time these things changed, was upgrading to 10.6 on my mac. Hopefully I can fix this with your help! I really appreciate it in advance.

This is the boilerplate text often used in connection to saving to a network (please NOTE the part where it explains that normally, it does work, but that it is impossible to troubleshoot someone else's network remotely, and that's why it's not supported by Adobe):
If you are opening files over a network or saving them to a network server, please cease and desist immediately in the event you are currently experiencing problems with one or more files. Working across a network is not supported.
See:
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/406/kb406793.html
Copy the CLOSED file from your server to your local hard disk, work on it, save it again to your local hard disk, close it, and copy the closed file back to the server.
     Of course, the fact that Adobe does not support working across a network does not necessarily mean it won't work.   It should.
    Adobe's position is that there are too many variables in a network environment for them to guarantee that everything will work correctly in every network, especially given the fact that if something does not work properly, it's probably the network's fault, and Adobe has no way of troubleshooting your network.
If you can't work locally, you are on your own, and if something happens, you're on your own. If you must work from a server, make sure your network administrator is a competent professional.
When problems arise, a lot of valuable work can be lost.

You can set Photoshop (or any image editor) as an external editor in iPhoto. (Preferences -> General -> Edit Photo: Choose from the Drop Down Menu.) This way, when you double click a pic to edit in iPhoto it will open automatically in Photoshop or your Image Editor, and when you save it it's sent back to iPhoto automatically. This is the only way that edits made in another application will be displayed in iPhoto.

Adobe Lightroom, Photoshop and Bridge does not recognize the raw files from my Canon Mark III 5D Camera.

Adobe Lightroom, Photoshop and Bridge does not recognize the raw files from my new Canon Mark III 5D Camera. How can I get my files open to view and edit? I am using LR3, Photoshop CS3 and Bridge CS3. Do I need to upgrade these programs or is there another way to get these programs to recognize my files?
When I try opening the raw images in Lightroom, the thumbnails say "Preview unavailable for this file" ... when I click "import" an error message pops up that says "The files are from a camera which is not recognized by the raw format support in Lightroom."
When I try opening the raw images in Photoshop, an error message pops up saying "could not complete your request because photoshop does not recognize this type of file."
When I try opening the raw images in Bridge, it just shows an icon with the file name and CR2.
Please help!!!

Unless I missed an announcement, today, LR6 isn't available, yet, right? Only Adobe employees and beta testers would know what LR6 does differently at this point and they're all sworn to secrecy.
LR5 is available as a standalone version.
PS-CS6 is available as a serial-number-licensed version.
PS-CC + LR5 are also available as a Photography Plan subscription for $10/month with a minimum OS versions of OSX 10.7 (and probably 10.8, soon) and Windows 7.
Bridge is part of PS, not a separate program.
LR5 standalone and LR+PS-CC plan are both available on this page: http://www.adobe.com/products/catalog/software.html
PS-CS6 can be found on this page: Creative Suite 6 which can be found by searching www.adobe.com for Photoshop CS6 and clicking the Buy link in the on-the-fly search results.
As with any new Adobe software, it might be wise to run it in trial mode for a few days/weeks to see if it works well with your computer, before purchasing and finding out you might need a new computer, first.
