Having a problem with "open" and "import" buttons!

Hello all,
I am having some trouble with a basic function in Logic. When I go to "file" and select "import," the window of options appears. However, when I select a file and click the "import" button, literally nothing happens. I have had a similar problem, when I go to the "file" menu and select "open." A window will appear for me to browse to the logic file I want to open, but when I click "open," nothing happens. However, if I manually go to the file and double-click it, then the file will open. The drop-down is set to "All logic document types," though I have tried "all Logic songs" with the same problem. Please help!
Best,
Jon

you know whats funny, this project has to do with arrays of objects and not inheritance. We learned inheritance last week but the lab we are doing which is this, is for arrays of objects. sorry for the confusion lol. so you can completely ignore this, it actually has it in big bold letters at the top of the web page for the lab.

I recently upgraded to Lion, and immediately started having consistent problems with Open Office 12 (would hang, and need a Force quit to recover). Has anybody else seen these problems? Any solutions other than going back to Snow Leopard? (I did).

Hi Pete. The repair of disk permissions can help resolve any application crashing or misbehaving.
As for Lion and the two camps, I think that is a reasonable observation. In my office we have about a dozen Mac's and about one third of those Mac's had problems after updating from 10.6 to 10.7. The main problem for these Mac's was a loss of wifi stability. But for the other two-thirds, Lion was a smooth transition.
Personally, my Lion experience was fine. But I did get a new i7 MacBook Pro with Lion already installed and only had to migrate my user data from a 10.6.8 TM backup.
So I think that is a key for Lion's operational success. A clean install of Lion on a new Mac would not cause too many operational issues. But an installation, or more correctly, an update to Lion from SL increased the chances of failure for some users - especially when old software & plugins resided on the Mac. And I would say that they were the people that you saw at the Apple store.
As for the "latest release of Lion fixed my problems" statement, my experience with these and other forums is that people mostly only go there to complain about the problems they are having. If they are having no problems then they either keep it to themselves or they try to help the users who are experiencing trouble...

I'm having a problem with coreaudiotoolbox and corevideo.dll.

I'm having a problem with coreaudiotoolbox and corevideo.dll. PC was corrupted, I restored. Now when I launch Safari, I run into errors, can't find these two dll files. Itunes won't download at all because it says something is missing but won't say what. Now what do I do? Apple won't help because they want $50 dollars just to talk with me and I've been down that road before and to no satisfaction. Help please!!

Taken at face value, you're having trouble with Apple Application Support program files there. (Apple Application Support is where single copies of program files used by multiple different Apple programs are kept, so an AAS problem can affect both iTunes and Safari.)
Let's try something relatively simple first. Restart the PC. Now head into your Add or Remove programs control panel, select "Apple Application Support", click "Change" and then click Repair.
If no joy after that, try the more rigorous uninstall/reinstall procedure from the following post (although it's for Vista and 7, just read "Computer" as "My Computer", read "Uninstall a program control panel" as "Add or Remove programs control panel" and assume the system is 32-bit, and you'll be doing the right things):

Anyone else having a Problem with Leopard and Photoshop CS3?

I'm using CS3 with Leopard 10.5.4 at work and there are some very aggravating anomalies, that I'd like to nail down to a cause. Most frequently, when switching from apps to P'Shop, the menu bar stays for the previous app, i.e. when going from Finder to P'shop, the menu bar still says Finder and has Finder options. Changing from Lightwave to P'Shop, the menu bar remains Lightwave.
Occasionally, an Adobe app - P'Shop or InDesign - will simply disappear and not come back. The icon in the dock shows it as active, but no amount of clicking, Command-Tabbing will reveal the app and I have to Force Quit, losing unsaved changes.
I have a feeling it's Leopard, since, I've used CS3 on Tiger and CS4 on Tiger and never had a problem.
I'm wondering if upgrading to the latest Leopard would make much of a difference.
Has anyone come across this and found any kind of answers?
Thanks for any suggestions.
-Vincent

> Just because it doesn't happen to Phil (who may not use all of the same features of the Suite that others do anyway) does NOT mean that these problems are not real and are not mere PEBCAK.
Right. If someone is having a problem associated with Tiger, it's PEBAK. If Leopard is involved, it's automatically because of Leopard. Apparently, with Apple's latest OS, trouble shooting problems are no longer necessary - just blame it on Leopard and call it a day.
b FUD
I find the dynamics here really interesting. This thread would have been very different if Vincent had posted with problems involving Tiger. Would have gone something like this:
After admonishing him for not providing more information about his setup by posting the obnoxious big blue link on how to ask questions (ahem - we know NOTHING about his machine or configuration, such as which machine, how much RAM, scratch disk or attached peripherals), there'd be all kinds of trouble shooting advice given - "try a new user", "repair permissions", "run DiskWarrior, and on and on ...
But no, since he mentions Leopard, none of that is apparently necessary and the completely, utterly
b irresponsible
advice is given ... "that's just the way Leopard is".
Those are some serious problems he's reporting that have nothing to do with Leopard. Something is obviously hosed!
As for discounting my experience because I don't use every app in the suite as extensively as I do Photoshop, I'm FAR more qualified to discuss Leopard and CS issues than Ann or Neil who do not use Leopard at all (and have never used it as far as I know.)
"Others have problems with it", is their battle cry but it's extremely weak. Do I really need to remind you all that these forum are ALWAYS filled with people who have problems, regardless of version or OS? You act as if this forum was a ghost town when Tiger and CS3 were current!
Gee, Ann ... people are STILL reporting problems with 10.5 and CS3? How shocking! Guess what - people are STILL reporting problems with 10.4 and CS3 too! Let me make a prediction - people will have problems with 10.8 and CS9!
Vincent-
> I don't really deal with fonts anyway ...
Yes. You do. Even if you never type a single line of text, every application uses fonts to create menus and other GUI items. If one of those fonts are bad, it can create all kinds of problems, including the very problems you mention.
The fact that you don't seem aware of this and you're still using 10.5.4 leads me to believe you're not familiar with the basic practices of maintaining a healthy system. Again, how did you install Leopard on that machine?
Look, if you're simply trying to justify using CS4, go right ahead. It's a worthwhile upgrade in it's own right. However, if you install it on that machine in it's current state, CS4 will NOT fix your problems because you do NOT have a healthy system.
You asked for experiences with Leopard - I can launch every application in both CS3 and CS4 suites
i simultaneously,
and STILL not have your issues. I haven't experienced anything like your CS3 problems in Leopard - on both a 2006 Mac Pro and a 2008 Macbook.
If you'd like help to try and figure out the real problem, I'm more than happy to help. If not, Adobe will gladly take your money ...

Problem with Back and Next Buttons: a solution?

Hello,
It is well known that including the Back and/or Next buttons in Captivate quiz questions presents real problems. I have come up with what I think to be a solution. It should allow one to include both Back and Next buttons, if one wants to do this. It involves doing the following:
With Question 1, do not include a Back button. (This is so that the quiz-taker cannot get out of the quiz scope in the forward direction.)
Create this advanced action: If cpQuizInfoTotalUnansweredQuestions = 0, then Go To The Next Slide (i.e. the results slide); Else Continue.
Insert a slide after the final question (and before the results slide). On this slide, include the following:
A message to this effect: ‘You have not answered all of the questions. Please go back and complete all of them.’
A button labeled ‘Return to Questions’ (on success: Jump to slide with Question 1). But include no other buttons. That is, if the quiz-takers lands up on this slide, he or she has only this option.
On Enter (i.e. on entering the slide being described here), Execute Advanced Action = the advanced action described in Item 2 above.
Now for something odd. Before the slide described in Item 3, insert a slide with a Text Caption with variable $$cpQuizInfoTotalUnansweredQuestions$$. Keep the slide as brief as possible (something like 0.5 sec.) and make the text of the Text Caption invisible. And why all this? Because I found that, without it, problems arose quite regularly. If one or more questions were not answered, the quiz-taker would come, as expected, to the slide described in Item 3 above. The quiz-taker would then go back to complete the unanswered questions. But then—sometimes—the Item 3 slide would still appear, even though all the questions were answered! The quiz-taker would return once again to the questions (since this is the only option available), only to find that now none of the questions were answered! And at this point, there was no escape: the Item 3 slide would always appear no matter what one did. Why should inserting the additional slide described in the present item solve the problem? I don’t know. All I can say is that (1) without it, the problem arises often (though not always), and (2) with it, the problem hasn’t occurred yet, even though I’ve done lots of testing.
Final note. It will be clear that this solution is meant to be used together with the option Allow Backward Movement. Will the solution work with Branch Aware? I don’t know yet. Will it work with Question Pools? Again, I don’t know yet. I’ve only done a bit of testing in both cases. The results thus far indicate that at least one of these options presents real problems. Both might.
I’m still testing this solution (or what I hope is a solution). If anyone else wants to try it, I’d be interested in hearing how it goes.
Best regards,
Marvin DuBois

Dear Lilybiri,
Thank you for your response.
1. 'I don't get it why you don't use the Submit All option?'
Submit All is fine in some cases. But it limits the options: the quiz-taker does not get immediate (question-by-question) feedback. So where immediate feedback is wanted, the Submit All option presents problems.
2. "Why do you need a Back button . . . ?'
a. The Back button is needed during Review. Otherwise, the quiz-taker can only review in one direction.
b. In some quizzes, the quiz-taker should be free to go back, whether to check earlier question slides (since the questions and/or responses can be relevant for the current question) or to re-read/re-hear information slides inserted between question slides.
But the more general issue is this. The Cp Back and Next buttons provide us with possibilities, with further options. Workarounds are available, such as not allowing backward movement and placing a Clear button over Next. But these workarounds limit the possiblities, i.e. the possibilities that are there—i.e. that Adobe puts there. It's not that we always need these possibliities. But neither should we be hindered from using them if we so choose—and especially when we would be hindered simply because Cp doesn't work as well as it should.
Kind regards,
Marvin

Problems with Next and Back Buttons ActionScript 3.0

Hi,
I have set up a Back, Play and Next buttons in a slideshow I am making. The next and back buttons work correctly until it gets to the end.
If I press the Next button it goes back to what appears to be Frame 1 and will not go to the next slide. If I press the Back button it will then go to Frame 201 and If I press next again it will go to Frame 1. It will only go back and forth in between those frames.
If I press the Back button from the beginning it goes through the slide show correctly then it gets stuck at Frame 1. If I press next button it goes to Frame 121 and gets stuck in between 121 and 1.
I can't figure this out please help.
My code on Frame 1 is:
stop();
play_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,playslideshow);
function playslideshow(event:MouseEvent) { gotoAndPlay(2); }
forward_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, fl_ClickToGoToAndStopAtFrame_2);
function fl_ClickToGoToAndStopAtFrame_2(event:MouseEvent):void
gotoAndStop(40);
back_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, fl_ClickToGoToAndStopAtFrame_8);
function fl_ClickToGoToAndStopAtFrame_8(event:MouseEvent):void
gotoAndStop(281);
My code on Frame 40 is:
forward_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, fl_ClickToGoToAndStopAtFrame_7);
function fl_ClickToGoToAndStopAtFrame_7(event:MouseEvent):void
gotoAndStop(121);
back_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, fl_ClickToGoToAndStopAtFrame_9);

gotoAndStop(201);
back_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, fl_ClickToGoToAndStopAtFrame_10);

gotoAndStop(40);
My code on Frame 201 is:
forward_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, fl_ClickToGoToAndStopAtFrame_4);
function fl_ClickToGoToAndStopAtFrame_4(event:MouseEvent):void
gotoAndStop(281);
back_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, fl_ClickToGoToAndStopAtFrame_11);
function fl_ClickToGoToAndStopAtFrame_11(event:MouseEvent):void
gotoAndStop(121);
My code on Frame 281 is:
forward_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, fl_ClickToGoToAndStopAtFrame_5);
function fl_ClickToGoToAndStopAtFrame_5(event:MouseEvent):void
gotoAndStop(1);
back_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, fl_ClickToGoToAndStopAtFrame_12);
function fl_ClickToGoToAndStopAtFrame_12(event:MouseEvent):void

I found the solution! Flash CS5 Tutorial 6 Click On Button Go To Another Frame.avi - YouTube
I had to Convert to Keyframes each frames I wanted to jump to on the buttons layer. Then highlight the button and give each another instance name! Like forward1_btn, forward2_btn, back1_btn, back2_btn... I did that and adjusted the action-script for each button.
Frame 1
stop();
play_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,playslideshow);
function playslideshow(event:MouseEvent)
gotoAndPlay(2);
forward1_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, Shoot_1);
function Shoot_1(event:MouseEvent):void
gotoAndStop(40);
back1_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, Back_1);
function Back_1(event:MouseEvent):void
gotoAndStop(281);
Frame 40
forward2_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, Shoot_2);
function Shoot_2(event:MouseEvent):void
gotoAndStop(121);
back5_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, Back_5);

Problem with SAVE and RESET button in WAD

Hi all,
We have two queries embedded in save template and we have created two different save and reset buttons for each query. But if i execute save or reset for one query it is working for both the queries. Can i restrict the SAVE and RESET button for a particular query.

Hi Tilak,
It appears that though there are two reset buttons, the HTML code for the webtemplete is not arranged to restrict the reset function of the button for each dataprovider used. This may cause the reset function to act globally on all dataproviders . In the XHTML code, please pass a unique instruction to each reset function, such that each instruction corresponds to a unique dataprovider.
Thanks,

Is anyone else having a problem with photoshop7 and new snow leopard operating system?

Recently purchased new imac with snow leopard operating system. Installed photoshop 7 successfully (it said anyway) but when I try to open get error message stating "an unexpected and unrecoverable problem has occurred because of a program error. Photoshop will now exit." Help!

John_Levine_IOPHFI_INH wrote:
It may not have been considered a "Major Release," But when the it's the only OS that the machines you are currently building will run, it's pretty freakin' major!
(I'm not sure if Apple's latest machines will still run 10.5, or not, but from following this thread, I'm guessing not?)
It is the standard at Apple... the latest build of the current OS is what goes on the new machines, and the Motherboards, Chipsets, & BIOS (not the right term for it with Mac, I know) are "hard written" to accept that OS as the absolute minimum, and nothing older (or lower as some call it).
So, since the latest machines are coming preloaded with Snow Leopard (10.6.2) that, and subsequent newer builds of OS 10.6 and up is all they can be loaded with.
This is nothing new. It's industry wide in both Mac and PC. Just try to put XP on a brand new Dell, HP, or Gateway PC. Without flashing the BIOS and taking a "more likely than not" chance of rendering most of your hardware undetectable, it just ain't gonna happen.
Conversely, just as Snow Leopard won't run on a PPC powered Mac, Vista and 7 may install, or appear to, on a single core, older PC, but the first time you install and try to open anything other than the OS itself, you're in for a world of problems.
People have tried to fight this for years. In 2005 Mac users went out of their minds when Apple dropped support for OS 9. A year later, it was Windows 98 users freaking out over their beloved OS being "sunsetted". I was skeptical of the move to Intel processors when I first heard about it, having become a full time Mac user, and being partial to AMD before that. But like Motorola PPC processors, AMDs run hot and heat is the enemy. The new machines run faster, cooler, and do more for less money.
It's a major pain for people who don't have the budget for a new Mac (or PC) and still have old software that is perfectly functional, but they are finding more and more incompatibility as they interact with other people and newer systems. Sooner or later though, technology wins and everyone has to either upgrade or drop out. Fighting it is futile. I will always remember the day last Summer when I stopped at a traffic light and next to me was an older, redneck looking fellow in a new brand spanking new Honda Accord. It may have even been a hybrid, I don't know, but duct taped on his dash was what had to be a thirty-five year-old 8-track player with a bunch of wires coming out of the back, also taped to the dash, and running to a pair of 6 x 9 speakers, which were just laying on the dash (no duct tape). I had to wonder why he bothered to buy the latest in automotive technology and yet he was stuck in a time warp for his stereo. Don't Hondas come with some pretty decent CD stereo units? And where can you find 8 track tapes anymore?

Having some problems with ImageIcons and JLabels

I'm making a checkers game, and so far it's going pretty well.
I've got the basic game down, and you can move pieces, jump, your turn ends when you can't jump anymore, etc...
However, I've had three problems:
1.) I'm using JLabels to display my board (8 x 8.. well actually 9 x 9 for an outer row labelled A,B,C,D.. 1,2,3,4...) Anyway, I create the JLabels using something that looks like \:
JLabel square = new JLabel(new ImageIcon("pic.png"));
Now, the picture loads properly, but it seems like the picture is being cropped, and the top and bottom are getting chopped off, so my 36 x 36 pixel *.gif appears to be 36 x 30.
You can see how there is a gap created in:
http://img235.imageshack.us/img235/7765/prob13ky.jpg
Now the problem may be with the GridLayout I am using, but I set the distance between the components in the container to be 0, 0 so I don't think that GridLayout is chopping my icons. I've also tried setPreferredSize(new Dimension(36,36))
for both my ImageIcons and JLabels and for my container (which I set to size 2000,2000, just to make sure there was room). If anyone can help me, it's be appreciated.
2.) I used to be able to view my outside row/column of squares that said A,B,C,D.... and 1,2,3,4... with the square in the corner having a random pic. For some reason now (have no clue why) I now see only the pic in the corner, and then a little gray smudge diagonally under it.

I don't know what's wrong. I'm pretty sure it's none of the new methods I've written, as those are all in my static void main (String[] ar) ...... and if I comment all the methods in my main except where I first make the JFrame and set it visible, it still turns out like that. repaint() doesn't help.
3.) For some reason, when I move another window (AIM, the console window, etc...) over my Swing window, it "erases" (turns gray, just wipes clean) the part where I have my squares that have pieces.
What's weird is that:
The border pieces (err.. my one visible corner piece from my second problem) don't get wiped, and some debugging text and JLabels (in a different JPanel) are fine. I don't think the JPanel matters though; the border pieces and the playing squares (which get wiped) are in the same JPanel and same array of squares.
repaint(); also erases ALL of my playing squares, whereas moving a window over them would only erase the part that the window covered.
Also, I added a mouseListener so that whenever I move the mouse over a square, it changes the image (to a tinted version, so you know the mouse is over it) and when you move the mouse away, it returns to normal. However, if I wildly swing the mouse around the area, it seems to lock up and freeze for a few seconds. Is there anything I can do to prevent this??
Thanks in advance.

It is hard to tell what your problems are without any code at all (I saw your images, but that doesn't make it easy to see what is wrong in your code). If you do post code, please use code tags (see button above posting box).
I've seen your MouseListener problem before--we had the exact same issue in our code at work. It would freeze up while it processed all of the mouse events (unbearably slow). I'm not at work right now, so I don't recall how it was fixed. Essentially, you need to only process the event periodically. You need to only update the image if the mouse switches squares. Or, only update the image if the distance from the last mouse event is more than some specified amount. We might also have checked the time difference between mouse events before processing a new one. I could look at the code at work tomorrow, if you are still having trouble.

Having a problem with "open" and "import" buttons!
