Going from 10.6.2 BACK to 10.6.
I'm on 10.6.2 now. It works great. Only problem is ProTools is not supporting this version yet. Who knows how long it will be until they release an update for said version. Is there anyway I can revert to 10.6 or 10.6.1? I do not have an external drive at my disposal unfortunately.
Thanks in advance!!!

Assuming your SL installer disc installs 10.6, just reinstall OS X. It won't erase your drive and it will preserve your Home folder, third-party apps, etc.

What Problems Will I Experience Going from Acrobat 11 Pro, Back Down to 10 Pro
Over a year ago I purchased, for my wife, Acrobat 10 Pro. We tried to install it on a Windows 7, 64 bit machine. It kept crashing, we didn't know about this forum, so we gave up and put it away. She never got to use the educational training we purchased with it, either. She then found and used some free software that came bundled with her printer to create pdf files and she used that up until now. But now she needs to create password protected pdf files, so we're shopping again.
We tried the Acrobat 11 Pro and it worked through the trial period. The trial period has since expired.
Tried to contact someone at Adobe to see if there was any kind of a credit for trading up an Acrobat 10 that was never used, for Acrobat 11. No reply.
Okay, I thought that maybe our DVD had a faulty or corrupted copy of Acrobat 10, and I thought about downloading a version of the Acrobat 10 Pro software and trying it again. But, if I have already downloaded Acrobat 11 trial version, will there be any conflict going back to version 10? Are there any known issues about this attempt?
Thanks.
RGRegular_grind the return period has unfortunately expired for Acrobat 10. You can qualify the upgrade pricing for Acrobat 11 however. You can find more details regarding the upgrade pricing at http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobatpro/buying-guide-upgrade-pricing.html.
If you feel there is a problem with your installation media then I would encourage you to copy the contents of the DVD to your Desktop. If you do not receive any write errors then it is likely your installation media is good and valid.
If you do need to download a fresh copy of the Acrobat 10 installation files then please see http://prodesigntools.com/adobe-acrobat-x-10-pro-reader-suite-direct-download-links-ddl.ht ml. Please make sure that you complete the Very Important Instructions prior to scrolling down the page and clicking on the download link.
Finally if you do receive errors during your Acrobat installation then I would recommend posting the specifics to the Acrobat Installation & Updates Issues forum -http://forums.adobe.com/community/acrobat/installation_and_update_installation. -
Workflow that maintains clip handles going from FCP to Motion & back
I have a 25 minute Final Cut Pro sequence that consists of about 200 clips each about 7 seconds long. Each clip has a different linear speed change applied to it. I've already run the project through Media Manager, adding 5 second handles to each clip. I've been told by my color corrector that before sending the project to him I should send all the clips to Motion and apply optical flow for the speed changes there. The short version of my question is: Can I trouble anyone to suggest an efficient workflow in which I can send the entire sequence to Motion and have it make the round trip back to FCP as a sequence in which the motion files have been swapped in for the original clips and the handles of the original clips have been maintained on those Motion files?
What I've been doing is selecting the sequence in FCP and sending it to Motion. Once the sequence is in Motion I seem to have to apply optical flow to each of the 200 clips individually rather than to the group a whole, because with multiple clips selected Motion seems to want to apply the same averaged-out time remap to all of them. So I apply optical flow to the 200 clips one-by-one and Motion inevitably crashes several times during that process. After I've finally set all the clips individually to optical flow I then select the clips and choose export selection. I then have to wait by my computer for several hours while Motion asks me over and over again "Some optical flow files are outdated. What do you want to do?" I assume these prompts are the result of the Motion having crashed while the clip was still being analyzed for optical flow. Finally when this process is done, I have a series of clips without handles that I have to tediously re-import back into the original FCP sequence.
I'm using FCP 7.03 and Motion 4.0.3.
Any thoughts anyone might have would be HUGELY appreciated!!! Thanks in advance for the help!
Best,
NeilHi Neil,
About the handles: What do you need them for?
If the edit is not too complicated and almost all on V1, you can think of a workaround which is very tedious, and I doubt whether it will make you happy.
On V1 the original cuts. So you will always be able to find them back.
Then Copy everything to V2. And from there put every other clip on V3. (So clip A on V2, clip B on V3 , clip C on V2, etc. And now by selecting the cuts and type +500 or -500, you can extend the clips.
Like in the picture below.
Again V1 is the original edit and is there to repair the cuts on V2 and V3 later on.
(I used slug and Generators for this exemple. Off course they all stand for normal clips.)
After that you do your Motion Magic, like Patrick explained.
And back in FCP cut V2 and V3 back like V1 is.
Delete V1, and done.
Well, that's the theorethical part. I hope it somehow can help you in practice, because I assume your edit will be more complicated then the example...
I once did this trick with
Also: When you send your normal clip to Motion (So from track V1, then in Motion you can increase the value in the duration Tab (Timeline, top right, then extend the clip and then save. You know can use the handle in FCP. Not sure how to achieve that for the beginning of the clip. You should try that yourself....

Going from Dolby Digital (.ac3) back to .aiff without A.pack
Sup sup,
Ok, so I'm helping some folks out by authoring the DVD for their short film.
I'll spare you guys the yawn-inducing details but the issue I'm facing is that I need to create an aiff file from an .ac3 file in order to have (aka edit down in FCP) the right music for the main menu.
Back when we had A.pack, you could 'decode' an .ac3 file into an .aiff, but, as best I can tell, that's not possible with Compressor 2. So what's a cat to do? (or am I missing out on some obvious functionality somewhere in the FCS apps)
And, yes, I've asked them about having the original elements in .aiff format and they don't (they're not technically savvy and they had a genuine issue with music that kinda put stuff out of their hands).
Any and all suggestions are welcome.
LOL. I can't believe I'm actually missing A.pack right now.hanumang,
Open up MPEG Streamclip,
drop your ac3 file into it,
select File>Demux to AIFF.
give it a useful name.
relax.
I just tried it and it seems to work (on a simple L/R stereo file)
Good luck,

Problem with luactivate going from S10 x86 u6 back to S10 x86 u5 ...
Solaris wizards:
I recently used Live Upgrade to migrate from Solaris 10 x86 u5 (May 08) to Solaris 10 x86 u6 (Oct 08).
That seemed to work without a hitch .... but now I'd like to go back to the other boot environment and am encountering problems.
While I'm using the s10Oct08 boot environment, lustatus returns:
Boot Environment Is Active Active Can Copy
Name Complete Now On Reboot Delete Status
s10May08 yes no no yes -
s10Oct08 yes yes yes no -
Then, when I issue the command:
luactivate s10May08
I get:
System has findroot enabled GRUB
Generating boot-sign, partition and slice information for PBE <s10Oct08>
WARNING: <3> packages failed to install properly on boot environment <s10May08>.INFORMATION: </var/sadm/system/data/upgrade_failed_pkgadds> on boot

or install properly. Review the file before you reboot the system to
determine if any additional system maintenance is required.

ERROR: Cannot generate boot signature for ABE <s10May08>
ERROR: Unable to determine the configuration of the target boot environment <s10May08>.
It seems clear that the problem is that it is looking for /dev/rdks/c3t2d0s0 as the new boot environment
and I'm guessing that it should be /dev/rdsk/c3t2d0s0 ...
While that was likely a typo of mine in during the original 'lucreate' or 'luupgrade' commands .... I can't find the file where that is stored.
The closest that I can determine by myself is looking in the luactivate script ...
It appears to me that I am getting the wrong value of gac_beMntpt when I try to determine the new mount points. The relevant portion (I think) of the luactivate script is:
# Get the BE block boot device for the ABE.
forceFlag=""
[ -n "${flag_u}" ] && forceFlag="-f"
gac_beMntpt="`LU_OUTPUT_FORMAT=text ${LUBIN}/lumount ${forceFlag} \"${gac_beName}\" 2>${TMP_RESULT_FILE}`"
if [ "$?" -ne "0" -o -z "${gac_beMntpt}" ] ; then
[ -s "${TMP_RESULT_FILE}" ] && ${LUPRINTF} -elp2 '%R' < "${TMP_RESULT_FILE}"
/bin/rm -f "${TMP_RESULT_FILE}"
return 1
fi
/bin/rm -f "${TMP_RESULT_FILE}"
${LUPRINTF} -lp2D - "`gettext 'Mounted ABE <%s> at <%s>.'`" "${gac_beName}" "${gac_beMntpt}"
I'm guessing that 'lumount ${gac_beName} looks in a file to determine what mount point should be mounted ...
but I can't seem to get further than that.
Does anyone know where I should look to find where luactivate looks to find the mount point of the alternate boot environment because, I think, it has /dev/rdks/something instead of /dev/rdsk/something ....
Thanks for any insights or suggestions ...
JohnSun Solaris Community:
I believe that I have found my ow problem, but thought that I'd share what I learned that was preventing my "luactivate" from working.
It turns out that I had put an entry in /etc/vfstab that mounted my Alternate Boot Environment as /ABE. It was that entry in /etc/vfstab that had the typo .... but apparently also confused the luactivate script.
My erroneous entry was:
/dev/dsk/c3/t2d0s0 /dev/rdks/c3t2d0s0 /ABE ....
So, while I couldn't actually mount that partition as my alternate boot environment on /ABE (because /dev/rdks/... doesn't exist) I had failed to notice this error on this machine.
In any event, correcting that entry both allows me to mount the alternative boot environment on the running system as /ABE if I wish ...
More importantly, 'luactivate Other_Boot_Environment" now works. Of course, for this to work properly, the alternate boot enviroment can't be currently mounted as /ABE ... that entry is just a convenience if I occasionally need to compare things between the current and the alternate boot environments and I'd need to do a 'umount /ABE' before doing the 'luactivate Other_Boot_Environment".
Thanks,

How do I return my mail going from the MAC mail back to my AOL
How can I return my mail from the MAC mail to my AOL
Are you viewing it in Artist view or Album view? In Album view, it should still list albums by artist name, then album name. If you're in Album view, you might be looking for Artist view.

My ipod 5th gen ios 7.0.6 crashed and keeps going from the apple logo, going to a black screen, back to the apple logo, then back to the black screen and so on. Furthermore, my laptop doesn't recognise that the iPod is connected. What do I do?
Please help me out as this is very irritating. This has been happening for the last 20-30 minutes. It had roughly half battery left.Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try another cable
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Blue screen of death, and continous reboot. Phone never actually boots up, just keeps going from reboot to blue screen and back again. Any suggestion?
Hello jared1915
If you are stuck in that loop, the next step would be to restore your iPhone. Check out the article below to get your iPhone into recovery-mode and restore it in iTunes.

i had to get a new iphone and want to know how to tell if my pictures from my previous phone were backed up on itunes. when i connect to itunes, does it automatically sync / backup even if i'm going from a 4 w/IOS 6 to a 5S w/IOS 7?
Welcome to the Apple Community.
Yes you can probably delete the 2 incomplete back ups they are unlikely to work.
However, I'd be inclined to back up to a computer as well and restore from there, if you are changing your phone. -
I have lost my "Basic" panel in the Develop module and can't figure out how to get it back. My right panel goes from the Histogram straight to the Tone Curve panel. My Basic panel should be below the Histogram. Any ideas how to get it back. I have even uninstalled my lightroom and reinstalled it with same issue. Help!!!
Right click on or near one of the other headers and a pop-up will appear and you will be able to select the Basic Panel for viewing.

I have Lion on my laptop and I want to back up my calendar TO my iphone. Not the reverse. iCloud only goes from iphone to iCloud to mac not the other way. Also, why doesn't "sync" mean update most recent changes across all devices? I thought that was the point of iCloud. Any suggestions since iCloud doesn't seem to work?
It's a work computer so I wanted to save them to my iTunes so I can access from another computer. Should I go to a home computer and just Import for best results? If so how do I do this? Also, why would I be synched with another library and how do I find out what this is? Very new/green user here

I am having an issue when using safari. My screen goes from really large to normal. The screen also disappears and I get to the desktop with the small screens on top. Then I get the dock (I believe) with the calendar, time, weather, ect. Mouse goes crazy whether using the track thing or a regular mouse. Doesn't happen all the time but most of the time. Also the computer feels really hot to the touch.
From the Safari menu bar, select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
Turn all extensions OFF and test. If the problem is resolved, turn extensions back ON and then disable them one or a few at a time until you find the culprit. -
I'm going from an IPAD1 to an IPAD4. If I back up my IPAD to the cloud and then download to the new IPAD, will it retain game data so I won't have to start my games over?

Yes, however you would be much better backing it up to iTunes to do this rather than iCloud. -
Installed the update tonight and now my phone (Lumia 928) won't power up. I've tried a soft reset, but the screen goes from the Nokia logo to a red Verizon screen to a black screen. Tried it 10 times with the same result. What's wrong and how do I fix it? Help!
Oh no Mr.Ected!
I can see if we can get your phone back on! I understand how important it is to have a phone. Have you tried this to see if we can get it back on? http://vz.to/1DZhteH . If it is still goes to a red Verizon screen and then to black we might need to do a master reset. While the phone is off try this:http://vz.to/1DZhXkU Be mindful this is the last resort because it will erase everything on the phone. If you have done back up assistant in the past you will be able to get you contacts back. Please let me know if you need any more help.

Where is the best place to get mus
I have the Zen Vision M and absolutely love it. I downloaded LimewirePRO because supposedly it is supposed to be better than just plain Limewire. Recently it has come to the point where NOTHING downloads from LimewirePRO. It only cost $20 to buy, so
