Help with a CS2 issue

hey there. I have a strange issue going on with my Photoshop CS2. When I open the program and begin to work with my image the program closes without any warning. I have never had any issues before and have done high quality graphics before with it. My current project is a poster for work that is 20 x 30. I tried at 300 and 200 dpi. When I start anything after the original layer it just closes. Is is because of the size? DPI? know the file size is a little larger than normal but to crash right off seemed kind of strange. I included my computer info so I hope that helps and if this has been mentioned before - newbie I apologize.

ps I haven't used the programs help in a long time.For some reason it isn't working. Is there any issues with the help option not working properly?
(I pulled this from the system info so I included what I thought would help - with some things yeah could use a new computer no that old but could be better :-)
Adobe Photoshop Version: 9.0.2 (9.0.2x296)
Operating System: Windows XP
Version: 5.1 Service Pack 1
System architecture: AMD CPU Family:6, Model:10, Stepping:0 with MMX, SSE Integer, SSE FP
Physical processor count: 1

First of all, you should update your OS to service Pack 2 and then apply the other updates that have come out since then.
Try resetting your preferences. There are several ways to do this; the simplest is: Immediately after clicking to open Photoshop, press and hold Ctrl+Alt+Shift; if you get a dialog about your preferences, tell it to delete or clear them, after which Photoshop will open. If you don't get the dialog, you weren't fast enough. Some people find that it helps to press and hold Ctrl+Shift down before clicking, then immediately pressing Alt in addition.
If you have reset your preferences and still have the problem, you can try doing a repair install; if that doesn't work, try uninstalling and reinstalling (which doesn't take long for PSCS2 and is no big deal).
Let us know what happens.

Background image seems to be applied twice Can someone help with this CSS issue....

Can someone help with this CSS issue....
http://66.162.81.144/cms400min/default.aspx
If you view the main page you will see that our background is
2 shades of
orange.. if you look at the line that divides those colors to
the right and
left you wil notice that the line is higher
if you notice that it seems that there is another background
on top of the
first one..its the only thing i can think of..
the only place where the image is being referenced is in this
CSS style
html, body
min-height:100%;
margin-bottom:1px;
text-align:center;
background-repeat:no-repeat;
background-image:url(images/Background-Color2.jpg);
background-color:#F74902;
background-position:center;
background-attachment:fixed;
Is there something wrong with the above CSS that could or
would cause this?
is it because im applying the image to both the HTML and
BODY?
ASP, SQL2005, DW8 VBScript, Visual Studio 2005, Visual Studio
2008

You've attached the background to both the html and the body.
I would do this:
html, body {
min-height:100%;
margin-bottom:1px;
body{
text-align:center;
background-repeat:no-repeat;
background-image:url(images/Background-Color2.jpg);
background-color:#F74902;
background-position:center;
background-attachment:fixed;
Having said that the image doesn't look any higher on the
right than the
left to me in Firefox. Is it just an optical illusion?

Seeking Help with Album Image Issues in iPod Classic

Hi folks -
I have a new 160 iPod Classic and have two album image-related issues I'd appreciate some help with.
In the case of several albums where I'd associated my own art with them in iTunes, the formatting appeared off in my iPod due to the vertical/horizontal proportions. So I corrected the images, replaced the images via iTunes, and re-synced. All of the old images were replaced - except for two. Is there any way to get my iPod to recognize the change to these two images, as it did for all the others?
Secondly, my "The Allman Brothers Band Live at Fillmore East" album was appearing twice in both the Cover Flow and Album list. That was strange, except that after the latest sync it now appears six times! It's only in one place in iTunes, and not erroneously set as a compilation or anything. This is the only album displaying this behavior...
Thanks for any suggestions or advice!
Frank

Help with production jvm issues at customer site

Following is a brief overview of two production issues experienced by an Oracle customer. Customer is currently running 32 bit Java 1.5_20 on Solaris 64 bit OS.
1)     OOM heap issues – SR #3-2611053901 – Recently we have been seeing OOM errors due to heap space. What we have seen is that some of the instances are not able to free up any memory space even after full GC, which results into a series of full GC’s back to back and eventually leads to OOM. During this time when continuous full GC is going on, we have seen the TCP connections and active JDBC connections shoot up and also lots of stuck threads. This error occurs during peak hours.
This is the output just before OOM. Just to be clear, this line is printed as last line of Full GC which meant that OOM happened right after Full GC:
[PSYoungGen: 111616K->82323K(172544K)] [PSOldGen: 1865727K->1865727K(1865728K)] 1977343K->1948051K(2038272K) [PSPermGen: 209111K->209061K(210944K)] GC time is exceeding GCTimeLimit of 98%, 13.3644395 secs]
2)     OOM swap space- SR: #3-1724941721 – From time to time, we get Exception in thread "CompilerThread0" java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: requested 32756 bytes for ChunkPool::allocate. Out of swap space?’ error in our production. Mostly this error occurs during off hours or off-peak hours. When this happen, there is plenty of heap and perm memory available which indicates that this is a native memory error. We already put two workarounds suggested by Oracle i.e. -XX:CodeCacheMinimumFreeSpace=8m -XX:ReservedCodeCacheSize=128m but still running into this problem.
What we are looking for:
1)     Recommendations on tuning our config parameters -
These are some recommendations we discussed internally. Please validate these recommendations and provide us the recommended values. We would also welcome any new recommendation on updating other parameters if that will help with our issues.
•     Change Xmx to 2048m and MaxPermSize to 512m
•     Specify ratio of young generation to old generation (-XX:NewRatio), and possibly survivor spaces.
•     Use Concurrent old generation collector (-XX:+UseConcMarkSweepGC), with a compatible parallel young generation collector (-XX:+UseParNewGC)
Our current config settings are:
JAVA Memory arguments: -Did=chaserels-cm21 -Xms1024m -Xmx2048m -XX:MaxPermSize=1024m -XX:+PrintGCDetails -XX:+PrintGCTimeStamps -XX:CodeCacheMinimumFreeSpace=8m -XX:ReservedCodeCacheSize=128m -verbose:gc -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote=true -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.port=1641 -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.authenticate=false -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.ssl=false -Djava.awt.headless=true -Dfile.encoding=ISO646-US
In a subset of servers, the settings are same as above but for MaxPermSIze, which is set to -XX:MaxPermSize=512m
2)     Diagnostic help in how to further narrow down to the problem and what tool to use to gather heap dumps
We have tried to take heap dump using jmap on our production servers when OOM occurs due to heap but most of the time, we run into an exception (attached - which is probably an unresolved jvm bug). While we researched some alternatives to jmap for taking heap dumps, most of these require changing the start-up scripts or installing the tool on production system which may have a performance overhead. What we want is a least intrusive tool which could provide us heap dumps/snapshots without much overhead and could be preferably used remotely. If there are other ways of collecting data than heap dump, we could also use them.
Let me know if you have any questions or need any data.
Thanks for your help.
Error from heap dump :

1)     OOM heap issues – SR #3-2611053901 – Recently we have been seeing OOM errors due to heap space. What we have seen is that some of the instances are not able to free up any memory space even after full GC, which results into a series of full GC’s back to back and eventually leads to OOM. Which would be exactly what would happen if there were many objects which were not eligible for collection.
Causes would be either a bug (something not releasing something it should) or because the server is overloaded.
If there were no code changes it could still be a bug that has now only become apparent due to changes in usage patterns.
If that is the case then such bugs can usually be made more apparent by reducing the maximum heap. Doing that will cause it to occur faster.

Help with installing CS2 in Snow Leopard

Can anyone help me with installing CS2 on a MacBook running OSX Snow Leopard? I have trouble with activating the product and get a splach screen with a monkey element or logo rather than the adobe logos... confusion reigns!

Hi Rory, be aware that running CS2 products on Snow Leopard isn't going to be a supported combination. Here's a related thread: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/499253. Apparently some customers have been able to run CS2 software on Snow Leopard. You can also check with our chat support at http://adobe.ly/v6wfLL. However, I can't be certain that they'll be able to assist you. You might want to consider upgrading.

Help with some iPhone issues please

Ok, I am starting to have some problems with my iPhone 3G, and would really appreciate any help with these issues.. here is what is happening
1) iPhone Vibrate is pretty much broken, turns off and on vibrate by itself.. and now is vibrating very softly.
2) iPhone wont sync my Music anymore, I have 3 playlists that I use on my iPhone, and none of them will update. When I sync my iPhone, everything syncs but the music.
3) iPhone sometimes completely freezes and i cant get it to go to the locksreen or power off, so I have to do a hard restart.

Hi Matt,
Try restoring the iPhone, this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414 will walk you through the process.
If the vibrate and unlock issues persists, the iPhone may need hardware repair. Just make a reservation to have a Genius, at a local Apple retail store, take a look at it or call AppleCare.

Need help with expression builder issue

Hi all
I'm hoping someone can help with an issue I'm having. I'm creating a database for a manufacturing joinery. For 1 of my forms, Ive to create a despatch form which includes order details along with customer details. Some customers can have contracts in which
they get a fixed price on certain item. This is where the problem lies.
For my customers table, I have a field called "On contract" which is a Yes/No field. I've created a query to attempt to make this form. I'm having trouble with adding a total column at the end of this query. Quantity,Unit Price, Contract Price
are also in the query. I've been trying to build an expression to say like;
iif [on contract] = "Yes", [Quantity] * [Contract Price]
iif [on contract] = "no", [Quantity] * [Unit Price]
It obviously wont work, what am I doing wrong?
Thanks in advance

Hi,
Assuming you are using the database is SQL Server:
SELECT [CustomerID]
,[Quantity]
,[Unit Price]
,[Contract Price]
,[Total] = CASE WHEN [On Contract] = 'Yes' THEN [Quantity] * [Contract Price]
WHEN [On Contract] = 'No' THEN [Quantity] * [Unit Price] END
FROM [Customers]
Modify the SQL to suit your need.
Hope this helps.

Need help with Itunes Authorization issue

I've been a Itunes/Ipod user for a couple years. During that time, I've sure spent over $500.00 on Itunes music from the Itunes store for my Ipod. My daugter and I both have Ipods.. There have only been 2 machines with Itunes installed here but I occasionally rebuild my computers to have the latest and greatest hardware for my business.. The other day I backed up all my music and data before rebuilding my machine due to hardware upgrades. Everything went smoothly including importing my purchased music back into Itunes.. The problem is I can't listen to it now. When I try to double click a song I get an error that says "You have already authorized 5 computers with this account. To authorize this computer you must first deauthorize one of the other computers" This isn't possible because the computers aren't around anymore to deauthorize. They were all housed (except 1, my daughters pc) in the same case as I have now.. Please respond...

The other day I backed up all my music and data before rebuilding my machine due to hardware upgrades.
okay. you may have ended up with multiple authorisations on that PC due to the system changes. if so the following documents should be of some help with techniques for freeing up authorisations:
One computer using multiple iTunes Music Store authorizations
About iTunes Store authorization and deauthorization

Just Switched To Mac's and Need Help With A Few Issues!

Hi All,
I finally did it and switched to a Mac!! Never thought it would happen as I always felt guilty about the cost but after 5 laptops crashing on me - well, I just could not take it anymore! I managed to get a fairly good deal on a 15" Macbook Pro - 2.2/120GB version. I still don't know much about the mac way but am trying to learn so any help would be appreciated!
1). Is there any kind of video tutorial (preferably free!) that I can use that will help me learn the Ma OS X? I have Tiger 10.4.11 on my MBP (Did you hear that - MY MBP!!!)
2). AOL Assured me that they fully support Mac before I purchased (only 5 times!) but after I had bought it - they then told me that they do not! I got the AOL disk for Mac but it kind of ***** - features are missing etc. Does anyone in the UK run their Mac's with AOL and does it run as per normal? Any advice with AOL & Mac?
3). AOL also told me - hey, no probs - of course you can transfer all your old emails, favourites folders, personal filing cabinet from a PC to a Mac - but then, after I bought it - the so called dedicated Mac Experts at AOL tell me that simply is not possible - What advice can anyone give me who has switched from PC to Mac with AOL and who needed to transfer all their stuff over? AOL tells you totally different things depending on who you talk to and even from what their web page state! I am really fed up with them!
4). If I am ever successful in getting all my many years worth of data from AOL on a PC to a Mac, I am really intent of changing ISP's - what are the best ones for Mac that offer good Mac support, good deals and no charges for telephone support?
5). I was initially happy with Tiger as again, AOL assured me they supported it but not Leopard (even their website says so) and as I stupidly thought that it must be true (we are talking AOL here!). Now I know that they don't support anything Mac, I am contemplating moving to Leopard - I am a little cautious as I heard there were/are many bugs and unhappy leopard experiences - have the majority of these been solved yet and is it advisable to change to Leopard or should I wait until an updated version comes out?
6). My MBP was originally bought in the US but is registered to my name in the UK. it has 6 months Apple warranty left and I wish to buy Applecare. Apple says it 'recommends' buying Applecare in the country at which the item is registered (not bought, as I understand it). Does that mean, if I buy Applecare in the USA, Apple UK will still accept it and service my MBP as they would do any other or will I have to have the hassle of sending the thing to the USA if it needs attention? Applecare USA T&C's state only for the 50 States & Canada and Applecare UK state only for the UK & EU. Both however state international servicing?! I am a bit confused on this one. I travel a lot and need to know, that any Applecare I buy will not then be limited to just the places they state in the T&C's. As It reads to me, Applecare purchased in the USA/Canada will not cover the UK/Europe/ROTW and vice versa. Is this true or am I missing something or just plain thick?
5). I really wish to upgrade the 120GB HDD. My understanding is that it must be done by either Apple (who charge really silly money) or if correct, at an "Authorized Apple Service Provider" who of course will be much cheaper. If true, does this mean at ANY authorized apple service provider on the planet or just ones in which the item is registered? If I do the upgrade with a service provider, will Apple then also service the new HDD if something goes wrong as per normal anywhere in the world or will they then say, sorry, will not service the new HDD and you have to go back to the place where you had it installed, even though it was one of their authorized service centers? (that would really suck)!
6). The spelling and dictionary (and a few other things) are set to US English - how can I set to UK English? I have tried but to no avail so far.
7) What and how should I set the Firewall settings so I will not get attacks by any form of malware? (I do not know much about this area and what the implications mean)!
Well, that's it so far - please bear my ignorance, I am so new to Mac's and hope this to be one of the smarter decisions I have made in life! Already I have strange sensation that I never had with all those years of Microsoft & PC's - I kinda feel reassured, safe, that if I have problems, they will get sorted, My life will now be easier and not having to worry so much about crashes, viruses, trojans etc, gives me a sense of liberation and contentment almost - very strange feeling but a **** good one! (if only the women in my life were like that)!
Thank You All From A PC to Mac Switcher (and NO! I do not feel guilty or scared anymore)!
SuaveBhav!

I can help you with your questions about AppleCare, and can also reassure you that both the macbook pro and Leopard will be worth your investment and the time you are putting into figuring out how to get your data across. I switched from windows when I bought my macbook a year and a half ago and would not use any other system now. The other day I completed the transition by erasing parallels and Windows from my system entirely.
As for AppleCare, you can get warranty care anywhere in the world, no matter where you buy your AppleCare. Mine was bought and is registered in the US, I live in Slovakia, and have had it serviced several times in Austria and Slovakia under the warranty without any problems at all. There are differences, however, in exactly what the warranty covers from place to place, in accordance with the law in each place that AppleCare is issued. Even though I live in the EU, my agreement with Apple is an American one, and the American guarantees hold. If EU law would demand that Apple fix more things, for instance, than American law does, I could not get those things repaired under my agreement, and vice versa.
Basically, though, I understand my agreement with AppleCare to be that they will fix all problems/damage that are not my fault free of charge for two years after my initial one-year warranty runs out, and that is good enough for me.

Need help with an innerjoin issue

Hello;
I am writting a small app for my web site and have run into
an issue with an innerjoin. Let me explain what the function is for
this so maybe you can understand what I am doing.
There are 2 pages to this. Page 1, is a category selection
page. It loads all the categories on the page with a link that
passes a category ID to page 2. Page 2, then allows you to view all
the projects that are associated to the specific category. There is
a numbered navigation on this page, kind of like google, 1 2 3 4
More> Next>
Now what I am trying to do it create a select function that
allows you to choose another category to look through on page 2 so
you don't have to go back to page 1 and select another category
there.
Right now, I have the innerjoin working well with page 1
going to page 2 and the numbered nav, it is doing what it is
supposed to. BUT the select function is working off the where
clause and not working independantly from what the numbered nav and
body is supposed to be doing. There is also a spot I added to this
page that kind of works like the select function, it puts the name
of the category your viewing on the page.
What is happening with the select function and this name
function is lets say there are 5 project records tied to the
category you selected, then the select function gets 5 names of the
same category in it and so does the category name function.
(Follow this?)
Let me post the code for page 1 and page 2. also will add
what the tables are in the db.
DB tables:
Table1: Categories
Name (this is the actual category name), MYFile(the file that
give an image of the category), Description(a description of this
category), CategoryID (this is added to the projects table for each
project that is connected to each category)
Table 2: Projects
ProjectID (this is the ID of the projects), Name (this is the
name of the project) Body (thi sis the description and picture of
the project), CategoryID (this is the id of what category the
project falls under, also assigned to tproject from the categories
table)
There is a lot of code that goes in this, so I am going to
post the code that is pertinent to this question, 90% of it is
working at this time, just not the select function and category
name on page 2.
Page1 Code:

I fixed a lot of this since I posted it this morning. Now all
that isn't working properly is the select, it isn't passing the
proper variable to make the query work.
This is what I have now:
Page 2:
<CFQUERY name="getProjects"
datasource="#APPLICATION.dataSource#">
SELECT Projects.ProjectID, Projects.Name, Projects.Body,
Projects.CategoryID,
Categories.CategoryID AS catID, Categories.Name AS cat_name
FROM Projects
INNER JOIN Categories
ON Categories.CategoryID = Projects.CategoryID
WHERE Projects.CategoryID = #categoryID#
ORDER BY ProjectID
</CFQUERY>

<cfif getProjects.recordCount is 0>
No projects in this category.
<cfabort>
</cfif>

<CFQUERY name="cata"
datasource="#APPLICATION.dataSource#">
select Name, MYFile, Description, CategoryID
FROM Categories
</CFQUERY>
<head>
<script language="Javascript">
function changeRecord(){
document.category.submit();
</script>
</head>
<body>

<cfoutput query="getProjects"
maxrows="1">#cat_name#</cfoutput>

<form Name="category" method="post"
Action="portfolio-detail.cfm?CategoryID=#CategoryID#">
<select name="CategoryID" size="1"
onChange="category.submit();">
<option value=""> --Select a Category--
</option>
<CFOUTPUT query= "cata">
<option value="#CategoryID#">#Name#</option>
</CFOUTPUT>
</select>
</form>

The error I get when using the select is this:
Error Executing Database Query.
[Macromedia][SequeLink JDBC Driver][ODBC
Socket][Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver] Syntax error
(missing operator) in query expression 'Projects.CategoryID ='.
The error occurred in C:\Websites\folio\portfolio-detail.cfm:
line 12
10 : INNER JOIN Categories
11 : ON Categories.CategoryID = Projects.CategoryID
12 : WHERE Projects.CategoryID = #categoryID#
13 : ORDER BY ProjectID
14 : </CFQUERY>
I also tried doing it this way:
<form Name="category" method="post"
Action="portfolio-detail.cfm?CategoryID=true"
This way didn't work at all, it only made the numbered nav on
the page cycle through all the projects in all the categories.
What do I need to change to pass the proper variable from the
select nav to the innerjoin query and my where statement?

Can you pls help with theis OIM issue

1. How can I assign as APPROVER dynamically without using the OIM defaul approval process. Is there any way to use custom process?
Any Code/Help will be hioghly appreciated.

There are two ways you can do this (actually three if you want to use process determination rules and route the object to a completely different approval process - those are developed in the role designer and placed in the "process determination rules" tab on the Resource Object).
The easiest way to do it is to build a couple of task assignment rules (also in the rule designer). Assuming you want to use some value in the object form to determine which approver is assigned, you just make sure you build the rule with the type = Task Assignment, subtype = user provisioning and the object and process fields filled in (process should be the approval process). Then you will be able to build a role using the object form data.
example: Object form field A == "value A".
Build as many of these as you need and place them in the task assignment tab of the approval task, selecting the proper approver for each rule.
Note that you can also write the rule to route based on user data, only be aware that some versions of oim (actually all that I have tried, but it may be fixed in 9.1, not sure) will not process this correctly if there is a request submitted for multiple users. Rather than route each correctly it will assign all of them to approver determined for the last user submitted (this also holds true if you are assigning to user's manager). Oracle added an option in 9.0.3.1.6 to restrict requests to one user to get around this issue.
The other alternative is to write a task assignment adapter in the adapter factory. I've done this in cases where I need to lookup the approver in an external data source. Write the adapter to take in any user or object form data it needs to make the assignment. These adapters return two parameters (which do not need to be mapped in the task assignment tab where you map the input parameters). One return value is a string containing the Target Type ("User", "Group", etc) and the other containing either the user key or group key the approval is being routed to.
Note that for some reason you cannot just set the target type string in the adapter with a "Set Variable" adapter task, you actually have to call java code that returns the string you want to set this to.
