Help ! trouble with formating

HI Everyone. I just finished my first project and thought I was on my way to meeting a deadline. I've encoded and now I'm having trouble formating. On the format button, the destination doesn't give me the 'standard dvd' option. Instead I get .img, DDP2.00, CMF 1.00 or DDP2.10. And on the output device it won't let me choose my external burner-only 'hard drive'. I did make one successful dvd last night-but since re-encoded and don't know why I'm having trouble now. Possibly an error in encoding? Could someone please help. Thanks

I'm no DSP guru but I suggest to format using .img then burning that image file through Toast or something.
Just so you can still meet your deadline.
Just my 2cents,
Jon

Trouble with format of files exported from pages as .doc - when opened on a pc they have extra spaces and pages breaks inserted after each line? Can be manually deleted, but defeats sharing purpose. advice?

Hi all, I have trouble with the format of files exported by email as .doc from pages - when opened in MS word on a PC or other device, they have extra spaces and pages inserted after each line - can be deleted manually, but defeats sharing purpose. Any advice? Not the most sophisticated user.

Got it. I tried booting with MOD_AUTOLOAD set to yes, and it was working fine. Looks like I needed to specify some more modules in my list.

Help trouble with forwarded message

Hello,
I realized that many people have this issues as I had recently, but I still need some help about this.
I found that original sender was actually receiving my forwarded message to other people. I had an important correspondence to make with my Attorney since February, I forwarded several messages from my opponent to my attorney. We have been resolving issues very well, but one day, the opponents suddenly changed their attitude and giving me a hard time. I was checking my older correspondence with the person who was actually mediating the situation and found out that my conversation with my attorney was leaked to the opponents because I hit "forward" to including the original message from the sender(opponent). The mediator actually saw what I was talking with my attorney. it was bad enough, the mediator was not telling me she was recovering my e-mail to my attorney. Now I have a trust issue to my mediator. It is not professional that mediator leaked my conversation with my attorney to the opponents, but Apple mail set up caused this situation. Am I wrong? I want to know if I could avoid this by myself, if it was my problem, I want Apple to teach me how to use e-mail setting correctly ASAP. In my understanding, it should be my choice if I including the original sender or not when I forward the message to others, correct?
Why Apple automatically include the original sender when I forward my comments to others???
is anyone know to fix this problem? We act civil to each other and the mediator was taking her position fairly, but once they knew my attorney has more to say to opponents, the mediator revealed her position toward executives in the company (opponent) My legal issue to justify my position should not be jeopardized by something like this that I cannot control. Bad thing is I didn't know the opponent are reading my conversation to my attorney until now. I didn't say anything wrong on the e-mail to my attorney to offend the opponent, but the opponent has been over reacting to the issue with me. Original issue was mediated by the mediator, but now I need my attorney longer to resolve the issue. Because of the forwarding message setting with Apple, I had extra problem. I recently send a message to the mediator and asked if she received any e-mail that should be going only to my attorney, she has no answer. I don't like any e-mail setting I cannot fix causes this trouble in the future. I will never forward the message to my attorney and ask a question again, but I want Apple to make better setting to avoid this kind of situation.

seems like you tried to invoke the method parseXml of the class com.bt.ma.utils.xmlPolicyReader but used a wrong (illegal & incompatible) parameter attribute...

Please please help trouble with exported quality

please please help me> i have been searching the net for over 3 hrs for a solution and whatever I have found has been a little too technical for me . I am uploading video to i movie from a disk. the file types on the disk are mp4. I am then editing the clips on iMovie '09 when I go to export the movie I am chosing to export movie as a "large" 960x540
.mov file. The quality ***...it is blurry and grainy and unusable. Someone in another forum told me to run the mp4 movie in quicktime and tell them what movie inspector says about the clip. Movie inspector says:
Formatt: Apple MPEG4 Decompressor, 640 × 480, Millions
FPS: 29.97
Playing FPS: 30
Data size 129 MB
Data Rate: 1504.39 kbits/s
Size 640 x 480
I am dying over here any help please? and thank you all so much

once I share to the media browser where does it go? cant find it.
It's "hidden" in your user folder Movies>iMovie Projects. Right-click (Control-click) on the name of your Project and select "Show Package Contents". In the folder named Movies you will see your exported file. It could be either a .m4v or .mov file, or possibly another type, depending on whether standard definition or high definition and the size option chosen when exported. If you are producing a DVD, you drag the file from iDVD's Media-Movies pane onto the Theme background.
Also, when sharing to the media browser I can only save it as "medium" quality...the other choices arent available?
Then AppleMan's earlier advice will be correct (as always) - he recommended using the Medium setting based on your QuickTime details. It appears that your original MP4 video has an aspect ratio of 4:3, unless your Project settings are incorrect. You set the dimensions (standard 4:3, widescreen 16:9 or iPhone 3:2) of the project in File>Project Properties then selecting the General tab.
In iMovie '09, I've mainly worked with AVCHD video which produces .MTS files that are converted to AIC (Apple Intermediate Codec) on import. This is high definition footage which iMovie can import as 1920 x 1080 or 960 x 540 (both widescreen 16:9). Hence, on export I can share at Large (960 x 540) or HD (1280 x 720). I'm not sure why you are only seeing a Medium option - could be due to the aspect ratio or maybe it's standard definition in MP4 format (just guessing!). If other options are greyed out, have you tried ticking the boxes - that activates each option for me.

Using a Panasonic HPX-370 Camera, trouble with formats

We are using a Panasonic HPX-370 camera with FMLE via firewire to a Mac laptop. We can only get FMLE to recognize the signal from the camera at 1280 x 720 59.94i with a frame rate of 60i using the DVCPROHD codec. We really would like to set the camera to SD, something like 720 x 480 at 29.97 or possible squeeze for 16:9 possibly using DVCPRO50 or DVCPRO25 but FMLE won't recognize the video signal at anything by 1280x 720 60i using DVCPROHD. Our client is only purchasing 1MB bandwidth at the venues for events so SD would be best for webcasts. We also back up to P2 cards so you can imagine that 8 hours at DVCPROHD in that size is a mammoth amount of data to back on hard drives.
We are very new to FMLE, any thoughts?
Thanks!

Hi anne adshead
Welcome to apple discussions. Might be too new of a camcorder to tell (you'll have to tell us) but here's what I found so far:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3290
It is listed within apple's KB. But as to how much apple support it offers? .... I'm not sure.
http://panasonic.net/avc/camcorder/sd/america/products/sdr-s26/specifications.ht ml
The convenience of the SDHC format makes it is easy to transfer files. The S26 offers Mass Storage support – connect with a USB lead and your Mac sees all the files.
But here ends the Apple support. Video is recorded in the .MOD format (also used by JVC Everio camcorders) which Mac apps don't recognise. You can change the extension manually (or by batch command) to .M2V so that VLC plays it.
For iMovie and elsewhere, you'll need a conversion app such as Aimersoft Video Converter. Is it too much effort for what you get?

Please Help: Trouble with nested CASE statement and comparing dates

Please tell me why the query below is always returning the bold null even when the start_date of OLD is greater than or equal to the start_date of NEW.
What I want to do is get the difference of the start_dates of two statuses ( Start_date of OLD - Start_date of NEW) if
1. end_date of NEW is not null
2. start_date of OLD is greater than start_date of NEW
else return null.
select id,
case when max(end_date) keep (dense_rank last order by decode(request_wflow_status,'New',1,0),start_date) is null then
null
else
          case when max(decode(status,'OLD',start_date,null)) > max(decode(status,'NEW',start_date,null))
          then max(decode(status,'OLD',start_date,null)) - max(decode(status,'NEW',start_date,null))
else
null
end
end result
from cc_request_status where id =1
group by id;

Avinash,
Thank you for your help.. Here is a more description of my problem..
Here is a sample of data I have for a table with four columns (id,status,start_date,end_date)
What I need to do is to get difference of the start dates of the maximum available dates, if data is valid. The pseducode is as follows:
IF end_date of New status is null
THEN return null
ELSE
IF start_date of old >= start_date of new
THEN return (start_date of old - start_date of new)
ELSE return null
I used the following query but always return the bold null
select id,
(case when max(end_date) keep (dense_rank last order by decode(status,'new',1,0),start_date) is null then
null
else
          (case when max(decode(status,'old',start_date,null)) >=
          max(decode(status,'new',start_date,null))
          then max(decode(status,'old',start_date,null)) - max(decode(status,'new',start_date,null))
else
null
end)
end) result
from tbl where id =1
Based on the below sample, I expected to get the following result; 14-Mar-07 - 16-Feb-07 which is the difference of the maximum start_dates of the two statuses. However the query is not working.. Please help me.. Thank you..
Id    Status    start_date      end_date
1     new      03-Feb-07      07-Feb-07
1     new      16-Feb-07      21-Feb-07

1     old      '14-Mar-07      16-Mar-07

HELP: Trouble with partial filled arrays

For HW, I have to write a deleteRepeats static method for an array of characters that deletes any character previously listed and returns the new array size. The example the problem gives is:
char a[10];
a[0]='a';
a[1]='b';
a[2]='a';
a[3]='c';
int size = 4;
size = deleteRepeats(a, size);
The problem then says after the code is executed, a[0] should be 'a', a[1] should be 'b', a[2] should be 'c' and size is 3. I read the section in my book on partially filled arrays, but I still can't get this method to work properly. Here is my code:
public static int deleteRepeats(char[] a, int size) {
size=a.length;
for(int i=0; i<size; i++) {
for(int j=1; i+j<size; j++) {
if(a==a[i+j]) {
a[i+j]=a[(i+j)+1];
size--;
return size;
With that code, when I put in the test array [aabcd], it returns 3, when it should be 4 and it changes the array to [abccd]. I'm sure there's numerous problems with my code. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Please post code in code tags.
First, I have no idea why they make you work with partially-filled arrays. It seems like the worst idea in the world. You should use ArrayLists for this kind of thing.
Why do you do "size=a.length;" at the beginning of the method? You lose the size information.
And I don't see how the algorithm does what you want. When you "delete" an element from your list of numbers in the array, you need to shift all later elements backwards to fill the gap.

Help needed with formatting an external drive

Like some of you exoerienced problems with my external drive on upgrade to 10.5.5. To cut a long story short, bought a Western Digital 500GB Studio already configured for mac. Backed up with time machine. The drive does not boot on startup of my Intel iMac as its the partition map is APM and not GUID. For some reason, when I access the drive in Disk Utility and select Partition, the Option button is greyed out i.e. read only and therefore I can't select GUID. Any ideas how to resolve this?

You cannot boot from a TM backup in case you did not know that.
In order to re-partition the drive for GUID you must:
Extended Hard Drive Preparation
1. Open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder. If you need to reformat your startup volume, then you must boot from your OS X Installer Disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Installer menu (Utilities menu for Tiger or Leopard.)
2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area. If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing. SMART info will not be reported on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
3. Select the number of partitions from the drop down menu. Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID (only required for Intel Macs) then click on the OK button. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Partition button and wait until the volume(s) mount on the Desktop.
4. Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
5. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
6. Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to several hours depending upon the drive size.
Steps 4-6 are optional but should be used on a drive that has never been formatted before, if the format type is not Mac OS Extended, if the partition scheme has been changed, or if a different operating system (not OS X) has been installed on the drive.
Be aware that this is a destructive process and all data currently on the drive will be lost.

HELP troubles with dynamically generated URLs

I'm trying to integrate a new shopping cart, but DW CS4 can't follow the dynamic links in the template pages. They render fine in Live View. I can follow the CSS in the CSS Styles panel, but of course, it's not editable. Related files are far from complete and if I try to click on one, I get an error that the file can't be found.
The templates all contain dynamically generated URLs such as:
<?php include("${__TPL_DIR__}pages/templates/part.header.tpl.html"); ?>
The .ini files used have site root relative references.
Any ideas? Or am I stuck limping along?

Thanks David,
I found a few articles in the Developer Center that were helpful in understanding what I was looking at. The articles on creating Drupal and Wordpress themes explained how the pages are created dynamically, as well as how to use DW to modify and create themes. Though the specifics are different than what I am looking at, the concepts are similar. They also confirmed that attaching the relevant CSS files as design time style sheets was a practical workaround in the absence of an add-on to help DW understand the site structure. I was hoping that I had just not done something correctly, but I can live with a workaround, knowing that an "easier" way isn't just waiting for me to learn something about DW.

Help please with Format Advance

Hi everyone.
I do themes with Intaglio, and drag over Keynote to do theme, but this drag is in .pdf, and when I select it in Keynote go Format >> Advance and see Picture...????, indeed of Figure. This form don't let me add Stroke or Fill in the cut-outs made with Intaglio it's exasperating can't put Stroke and Fill.
I Know than I'm making something bad, but I don't know what.
Light over the cuestion will be very well accepted.
Thanks in advance

Keynote doesn't allow fills in PDFs (and the only strokes it supports are around the entire bounding box of the graphic). What it sounds like you want is for your graphics to be actual Keynote objects. To do this, you need to save your Intaglio graphics as SVG, and then convert them to Keynote graphics with the excellent svg2key utility. Instructions for how to do this are at the svg2key site.

Help, trouble with my OS and device maybe.

Guys, I heard the new OS 10.3.1 has been released, but my Blackberry hasnt updated yet! Tried BlackBerry link, OTA, Web, none works. It shows that my device has the latest available device software! My BlackBerry is currently on version 10.2.1.3062! Help please? Please? :'( I really wanna use the new OS 10.3.1!! :'(

As has always been, unless you purchased from ShopBB, then your carrier controls when (if ever) you will receive the update via the official methods.
If you want to move to it anyway, then I suggest you try the very clean and very forceful AutoLoader method:
http://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/BlackBerry-10-OS-Device-Software/Upgrading-OS10-devices-using...
Beware that it is completely destructive...the device will be "like new"...no data, no apps, no accounts, etc. Be sure you take a full backup first, as well as make full manual documentation of all apps, accounts, configurations, etc. Sometimes a restore reintroduces the very corruption one is trying to eliminate, and manual reconfiguration is necessary.
You can also use this to fall back to a prior OS if you desire...you can install any OS level for which you can find an AutoLoader. (Hint...search over on the CB site!)
Good luck and let us know!
Occam's Razor nearly always applies when troubleshooting technology issues!
If anyone has been helpful to you, please show your appreciation by clicking the button inside of their post. Please click here and read, along with the threads to which it links, for helpful information to guide you as you proceed. I always recommend that you treat your BlackBerry like any other computing device, including using a regular backup schedule...click here for an article with instructions.

I'm really frustraded - Please help - Trouble with printing

Hello guys, Im programing a software for a parking lot in java. I need to print tickets with an EPSON U220 printer. When I print, the margins of the paper are all messed up. It seems I can only print from the half of the paper to the left. What can it be? also, when I print from notepad the same happens, half of the paper is blank and only the other half prints.
How could I solve this problem?
Where could I start reading?
Thanks ALOT for your time!
Best regards
Michel

Help-trouble With Listener

One class (class 1)implements mouse listener and responds to a mouse events.
As part of that response it needs to call a variable set method in another class (class 2)and also have that setMethod call it's own ActionPerformed.
Seems the problem is I don't have aaction event to pass
I only have a mouse event. As follows:
class 1
public void mousePressed(MouseEvent e) {
int y1=Math.abs(e.getY()-y);
this.sourceReference.setVar(y1);
repaint();
class 2
int var;
public void setVar(int y)
var=y;
this.ActionPerformed(?? ); //This is what I want to do
Same question slightly different.
From class 1 I scould first call the setVar method
and then issue a call to class 2's ActionPerformed.
But again I don't seem to have the proper action event e to pass it.
Thanks
PS I posted this on the beginner site but no response.

You can create an appropriate ActionEvent with an appropriate constructor.
public ActionEvent(Object source, int id, String command)
source should be the source (possibly component) that generated the event.
id should be ActionEvent.ACTION_PERFORMED
command should be whatever is meaningful for the event you are firing.
Rather than tightly coupling this to a single actionPerformed method, you should look into making a fireActionPerformed-esque method (See the source for some of the swing components for examples) and registering action listeners... this means that you can extend the system at a later date so two or more other components are notified by the event.

Trouble with formatting after converting word to PDF

A portion of a page is cut off when I convert the word document to a PDF. What can I do to fix this? I have included some screen shots to demonstrate the issue. In the screen shot from the PDF you can see that the bottom of pg 60 is cut off, it is visible in the word document version. It is only this page which has the problem. The similarly formatted table on the following page, pg 61, is not cut off in the PDF form of the document. (The word doc is the first image and the PDF is the second.)
Thank you for your time

This is a WORD issue. When you are editing in WORD, select the printer to be the Adobe PDF printer (or set this to be your default printer) and then edit. WORD and most word processors reflow documents to best match the printer resolution. This will even happen if you switch between various paper printers. You can turn off this feature in WORD under the options, buried under compatibility for using printer metrics. I am not sure what WORD does when you turn off the use of printer metrics.
As I said, the result is typical of word processors, If you want to end this behaviour then you would need to use a layout program like InDesign. Layout packages are WYSIWYG applications. I have my systems set to the Adobe PDF printer as the default and often print from Acrobat to a physical printer. Since I print PDFs to the printer more than WORD documents, this works well for me.
