Help please! Symbol Property/Edit Question

I am using Fireworks CS4 for Mac. I have "lost" the ability
to edit a symbol with the option to change states, etc. When I
click on "symbol property" - all I get looks like ruled paper with
two columns titled "name" and "value." How do I get back the
property edit area where I can edit various symbol states and
properties??? Thanks in advance!

Double click on the symbol to open the symbol editor. Change
the states
under the Properties tab rather than the Symbol Properties
tab.

  • Need help with QT Pro Editing Question re: lost footage

    Stumped on this issue. Had captured miniDV footage (7 minutes in length and 1.09 GB in size. I wanted to extract 12 seconds of this to send out as a clip. Steps i took were:
    1) Cut the footage on either end and was left with 12 seconds i needed.
    2) THen Saved File as and gave it another name.
    3) Now my original file is still 1.09 GB (which it should be) but only plays the 12 seconds that i kept
    If i open that file, and click save as, option to save as self contained shows that clip should be 43.6 MB which is what my renamed and altered file is.
    Question, any chance i have somehow "Hidden" the content so the QT player won't play it but it's still in the file somewhere. How can i extract?
    Naturally, i don't have the original master miniDV footage. any help appreciated.

    1) Cut the footage on either end and was left with 12 seconds i needed.
    Normal method is to set in/out points and simply "trip to selection."
    Question, any chance i have somehow "Hidden" the content so the QT player won't play it but it's still in the file somewhere. How can i extract?
    If the "Play selection Only" option is set, then only the 12 second segment will play but the progress bar will display the entire file to include segments before and after the "selected/playing" portion. If the progress bar is only as wide as the playing segment, then you have inadvertantly saved the "trimmed" data to the original file and the data is probably lost. Not sure if this works llike a "secure HDD delete" (which overwrites the unwanted data) or a simple "HDD delete" which only marks the data as not existing but actually leaves it it tact. If the latter, then there may be some sort of "movie undeleter" utility out there, but I personally know of none. In either case, the file size listed cannot be relied upon as it file container is much like a partially filled milk bottle now -- the bottle size remains unchanged but the bottle is no longer filled.

  • So stuck!  Need help please with text editing.

    I purchased an .eps file on shutterstock that I wish to edit.  I telephoned them to check that it could be edited. " not a problem, use illustrator..... "
    The image has several texts.  I am trying to replace the words with in the text boxes, if that makes sense.  I have tried  the trial and error approach for the past 2 hours with no progress.
    I have tried perspective grid etc but no option is allowing me to select the text and edit it. 
    Anyone have an idea how and the quickest way and there is many words to replace.  Really am a novice to illustrator.
    I would have attached the file , however it appears this forum does not allow it.  I have provided an upload link.  If someoone could just take a look as I am baffled!
    http://www.mediafire.com/?6ejqwwk9h4c42tb
    Thanks..
    John,

    Thanks for taking a look.
    Is there a method of reversing the 'outline' ? otehrwise;
    i guess the quickest method now is to text box in pshop and past it in illustrator. Or is there a better method as time is an issue with this...

  • A little help please on a few questions i have.

    im brand new to the forum as in this is my very first post.
    ok i will describe my computer the best i can so that i can get the most accurate answer possible. so bare with me.
    so i have a macbook pro 15" that was purchased in summer 07 brand new. it's 2.2 ghz with 4gb of ram running on os.x 10.6.2
    im still using the really small 120gb hdd. i want to update to something insanely big cuz i need the room and don't want to have to worry about it. pref. a 1tb internal. what size does the disk have to be ( i.e. 2.5" ect.) and what are some good brands that wont break the bank.
    ive been looking at this its only a 500gb and i heard the faster rpm the better. (correct me if im wrong im only going by what im told)
    here is the link: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822148374
    ive got an external 1tb but i don't want to put all my stuff on there and have to plug it in and keep it plugged in. i want freedom to move.
    any suggestions guys??

    Another option would be to remove your optical drive, and install a second HD, using a kit like
    this, which includes a USB optical drive enclosure. If you rarely use the optical drive and/or don't mind toting it along, this would get you your 7200RPM 1TB internal storage, but you're going to spend over $300 doing it. You could also put an SSD in the optical drive bay, but that's even more money for less capacity. Food for thought.

  • Can you help, please?  Time sensitive question about import quality.

    Hi,
    Didn't get an answer the first time, so with a little more research on my part I discovered that:
    Video clips shot with my S95 Powershot, imported automatically into iPhoto then into iMovie, are 1280x720 H.264, Linear PCM, and look fantastic. Same scene clips shot with a Canon Vixea videocam, are imported automatically into iMovie and become 960x540, Apple Intermediate Codec, Linear PCM, and look pretty bad. Is there any way to get the video camera clips to import as H.264 quality files? Is it something to do with how the still camera imports first into iPhoto, or is it just that the still camera is much better than the videocam? Sorry I'm a newbie to all of this.
    The thing is, if it's the camera'a fault, I still have a week to return it and get my money back.
    thanks very much!
    Josh

    When you have your ipod plugged in select it from the source list (on the left where the songs are). The first item should be 'launch itunes when...[you plug it in]' turn that off.
    Not sure..looking at the mac version.
    Good Luck,

  • Help please with parallels/vista question--what is this on my desktop?

    Hi,
    I don't know if this is the right place to ask this or not, but I don't know where else to ask.
    I installed Parallels 4.0, then Win Vista. The vista is the Home Premium 32-bit version. It all seemed to go OK, I guess. But now over on the right hand side of my desktop, where I have several icons of documents, programs, and my Macintosh HD icon, there seems to be some sort of barrier, and I can't click on any of those items. When I have my cursor inside that area I see a definite demarcation line. There is a new icon in there called "[C] Windows Vista".
    FWIW, I did not use Boot Camp; I only wanted to go through Parallels.
    Is this a problem? Did I do something wrong? How do I get to those icons?
    Hope this makes sense, and that someone knows what I'm talking about.

    Thanks for the info. I tried to find a copy of XP Pro, as that is what I really wanted. Unfortunately, I needed this on fairly short notice (to be able to work in Windows) and didn't have time to wait to order online. Had to buy Vista. I don't need, nor want, to do much with it, just this required stuff. Hope it works OK.

    Hi sdennisonta,
    If you are having an issue with charging your MacBook Pro, I would suggest that you troubleshoot using the steps in this article -

    If the battery appears to be working correctly you may want to see if the issue lies with your power adapter. Use the steps in this article -

  • Macbook stuck on white screen with apple logo. help please

    I have a macbook (black model) and while I was surfing on internet it is frozen. so I shut it down and restarted. When I restarted, it stuck on white screen with gray apple logo and seems like booting but nothing happens.
    after that, I restarted again and put installation disc (leopard) without pressing any key and it opened normally. I backed up os with time machine but in one hour it is frozen again.
    restarted again but this time it did not boot normally. so i tried booting from cd with c key, it opened installation screen. I have opened disk utility top repair disk, but when I click on disc image, repair / verify disk buttons are unavailable to click and S.M.A.R.T status is not supported.
    After all, I tried to erase and install system several times, but after language section when I click agree to terms and conditions, mac freeze again.
    So, I do not know what to do. Any help please?
    Note: I already tried PRM and Safe Mode. (after safe mode it took me to installation screen again and nothing changed.)
    Any help would be much appreciated!
    Uptade: Also, opened system profiler and clicked on Serial-ATA, it seems loading but do not show any info. stucked again! help please

    HI,
    *"I have opened disk utility top repair disk, but when I click on disc image, repair / verify disk buttons are unavailable to click and S.M.A.R.T status is not supported."*
    You need to select "MacintoshHD 10.5.8 not "disc image" in order to run Disk Utility and Verify and if necessary, Repair the disk.
    That's why you are seeing this dialog.
    *are unavailable to click and S.M.A.R.T status is not supported.*
    Also, run the Apple Hardware Test.

    I've used the FB for some years as a secondary live keyboard interface. It's NEVER been noisy at all until you turn the +12dB extra gain stage on for inputs 1 - 4. You guys know about this right?
    This can be a pain if you're trying to connect -10 gear or if you're using a low output mic like a ribbon, but if you're connecting -10 gear then use in 1&2 with the +12 switch off and you'll get a way better sound, and while the FB pre's can only be described as budget, if you use a condenser mic (better output level) they're manageable... But best of all would be to use additional pres to bring your level up to +4 and use inputs 3&4. Used this way the FB has decent sound quality - particularly for the price.
    To the original poster, if Reason sounds fine and Logic is distorted perhaps you have your mix levels set way too loud in Logic and that is where the distortion is occurring - not the Firebox at all? I see this kind of thing often as I mix many other artist's recordings and almost without exception, they all come to me with a distorting mix bus from channel levels set too high.
    The engineering in the Logic Factory Library is very often pretty bad as well. Apple Loops with really noticeable distortion in the audio and not intentional - and while I love Ultrabeat and other Logic instruments many of the factory kits and presets are set too high output so the channel meter goes red for no good reason.

  • How can I edit my website from another computer? and how can I create a new website next to the one, I have already? Can anyone help, please?

    How can I edit my website from another computer? and how can I create a new website next to the one, I already have? Can anyone help, please?

    Move the domain.sites file from one computer to the other.
    The file is located under User/Library/Application Support/iWeb/domain.sites.  Move this file to the same location on the other computer and double click and iWeb will open it.  Remember, it is your User Library that you want and not your System Library, as you will not find iWeb there.
    Just create a new site on the same domain file and it will appear below the other site.  If you want them side by side then duplicate your domain file and have one site per a domain file and they can then be side by side.

  • My latest import photos are missing from my iphoto library but still on my ipad, how do I get them back into iphotos. I very frustrated because i just imported them from my camera and have not been able to go thru and edit the ones I want. Help please

    I recently imported pictures from my camera to iphoto. I also synced my ipad. In less than 24 hours my photos are now missing from iphoto even after trying to sync my ipad again. These pictures are from a very special occasion and I did not even get time to edit. Someone help please

    -Background-
    My issue, which I resolved and may help you was the following:
    I have an IPAD 3. I took over 5 GB of pictures on a third party camera. The car was full so I imported those pictures to my IPAD 3 and deleted them from the SD card. While on IOS 5.x, the photos on the IPAD were there under last imported.
    Over the last few days, I upgraded to IOS 6. No issues.
    Then, my family wanted to see the pictures from the trip. I went to the IPAD and could not find the photos. It listed 40 photos only. The last imported was there, but listed as empty. When I went into the settings>usage, it listed 5GB + of photos in the photos area. I was confused. I plugged my IPAD into ITUNES, first thinking I would get a backup asap (icloud was full after importing the photos). Then I though I would downgrade to IOS 5.
    Also, itunes listed that I had 40 photos only, but 5GB of OTHER data. I was convinced the data was not lost. When I tried to browse the IPAD 3 using windows browser, the photos where NOT in the DCIM folder, so I was not able to simply "FIND" the photos and copy them to my PC.
    -SOLUTION-
    I downloaded third party software onto my PC called "http://www.i-funbox.com/" I fun box. I had no idea if this would work, but other forums with other issues called out similar products for iphone issues.
    When I installed the program, which was free, and so far free of malware, I started  to explore my IPAD file system.I found my photos, under IPAD>RAW file system>DCIM>100IMPRT.
    -ROOT CAUSE-
    I suspect when I upgraded to IOS 6, apple fails to register the IMPORT folder of photos as such, photos. So the file system in IOS looses sight of what is inside the last imported folder. Essentially removing them from applications such as "Photos". Why windows does not seem them, is beyond me. But the program I found did see them in raw format, and I was able to COPY them to my PC. Then I deleted them from the IPAD, because I had no other way of managing this folder in IPAD, and it was using a lot of space.
