Help with calculated column formula- combine strings and convert to date

In my list (SharePoint Server 2013) I have:
'Invoiced Month' column, type of choice (strings with names of months- January, February, March..., December)
'Year' column, single line of text (e.g. 2012, 2013, 2014)
1. I need to create a calculated column which will return combined value of the columns above, but in DATE format e.g. 'Sep-2013' or '01-Sep-2013'.
I then use that newly created calculated column to do this: http://iwillsharemypoint.blogspot.in/2012/03/sharepoint-list-view-of-current-month.html
I am rubbish with formulas, can I have some help with my problem please?

Hi,
Use the formula, I have tested by creating Months column with choice, Year column as numeric and Calculated column as DateTime returned.
=DATE(Year,IF([Months]="January", 1,IF([Months]="February",2,IF([Months]="March",3,IF([Months]="April",4,IF([Months]="May",5,IF([Months]="June",6,IF([Months]="July",7,IF([Months]="August",8,IF([Months]="September",9,IF([Months]="October",10,IF([Months]="November",11,12))))))))))),1)
Before applying the formula few things need to be noted.
DATE(YEAR, MONTH,DAY) will accepts three parameters all should be type numeric(integer).
Create the Year column of type numeric
Create the calculated column of type "DateTime" to return as date
Please mark it answered, if your problem resolved or helpful.

I need help with Compressor 4 settings to convert .mp4 files to .m4v for iBooks Author

I'm a curriculum design guy with no video background. I have Compressor 4, but don't really know much about how to best use it. I'd appreciate some help with getting the right setting for my project. Screen shots of settings would be much appreciated, since I don't know much video terminology.
I'm making an free iBook for students on WWII propaganda using old videos from the Internet archive.
I'd plan to use Compressor to:
1. Convert the .mp4 files to a .m4v that iBooks Author will accept. (I know I can use QT for that, but it increases file size)
2. Use Compressor to reduce file size so my iBook doesn't get too big
3. Get videos that look & sound the best, given the poor quality of the original source videos.
Here's some sample videos that I'll use:
http://www.archive.org/download/OutOfTheFryingPanIntoTheFiringLine/OutOfTheFryin gPanIntoTheFiringLine.mp
http://archive.org/download/AvengeDe1942/AvengeDe1942_edit.mp4
PS - I will also be editing some of the original videos in iMovie - if I use different settings to prep those videos for iBook Author, let me know.
Much thanks in advance for any help

Compressor is half the size compared to QtX encoding, 17 MBs...

Need help with pictures on an external HDD and windows labtop to Ipad3

Hallo everybody!
This week (I finally) bought an Ipad 3 and an Apple TV!
For the time being I still have a windows labtop and an external HDD full with photo's.
The ICloud software for windows has been installed because I would like to stream the pictures from this external HDD to my Ipad and then ofcourse on my flatscreen TV (via Apple TV). And ofcourse back, when I have taken a photo or a movie on the Ipad 3.
I would appreciate some help with the following questions:
do I have add all pictures from the HDD into a new map on the windows labtop. So that via Icloud the contain could become 'in the cloud'.
or do I have to add all the pictures from the HDD into the Itunes map on the windows labtop.
I have connected the Ipad to the windows labtop and via Itunes I have synchroniced a lot of pictures to the Ipad. I asume these are copies? And is it possible to remove them from the Ipad, because it will take a lot of memory (currently already 35 GB from the 64 GB).
Well I hope somebody could help me.
Many thanks in advance!
Ronald from the Netherland

I just found out that ICloud isen't really a storage place for photo's. Just a passing throw station to your other devices.

Help with PageMaker 7.0, Transparent Backgrounds, and Feathering in Photoshop CS5

Hi all,
I am hoping someone here can help me out with a problem that I've been having for more than a week that I can't seem to figure out and it's driving me crazy.
I have a friend who's trying to put together a graphical instruction manual using PageMaker 7.0. My friend would like to have the borders on the pictures in the manual be softened and the background needs to be transparent, because each page in the manual will have a background watermark picture.
I am running into a number of problems. I have been using the feather and contrast options under Refine Edges in Photoshop CS5. While the picture looks and prints great from Photoshop, as soon as I save the picture to a file format that I can import into Word and then PageMaker (more on this step below), the feathering only either becomes white instead of transparent (the rest of the transparent part of the picture is still fine) or the feathering becomes horribly pixelated.
I am not sure which step in the process is causing the picture to degrade. The two file formats that seem to at least retain the transparency through the importing process are PNG and TIFF, albeit horribly pixelated. Could using these file formats cause the quality issue that I am describing? Could it be transferring it through Word first, as described below?
Is there are any other methods that one can use in Photoshop CS5 to soften the border of a picture other than feathering that may work better for these purposes.
Regarding the use of Word to retain the transparency into PageMaker... are there any better ways of accomplishing this? In order for the transparency to be retained, I need to add a text box, send it behind the picture, group it together, and copy the group over in order to retain the transparency using Word. This, needless to say, is a horribly huge pain in the ***. Any suggestions that could cut down the number of steps would be appreciated.
Any help with this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Pagemaker does support transparency for placed files, just not
partial transparency like drop shadows or feathering that
would result in partial transparency.
You can place an object into pagemaker without getting the
white background by making a clipping path of the object
and then saving the file as tiff file. Then you would use
File>Place in pagemaker.
You could also put a background behind your object that matches the page in pagemaker
or use photoshop to make the layout.

Help with two scripts - Mounting remote DMG and Checking which network I'm connected to

Hey guys, I need some help with two separate scripts:
1. The first script I'm trying to create to mount a DMG stored remotely on another Mac using an AppleScript or shell script. Using the following:
set cmd to "hdiutil mount 'afp://username:[email protected]/Lion/Users/username/Desktop/Test.sparseim age'"
do shell script cmd
results in the following error:
error "hdiutil: mount failed - not recognized" number 1
I'm not very experienced regarding AppleScript or using hdiutil, could somebody point out what's wrong with my script?
2. The second script I'm working on to try and essentially prevent the 'Could Not Find Server' Finder dialog when a network mount is unavailable. I guess what I'd like it to do is detect which network I'm connected to, and if I'm connected to the correct network, then mount the shares, otherwise just fail silently without any errors. From the searching I've done, using try statements should do this, but they do not, and I'm still presented with an error dialog after the server cannot be found.
Does anybody have any suggestions on this script? Also, I've seen some tips regarding detecting which wireless network the Mac is connected to, which could work, but what about when connected via Ethernet?
Thanks!

Edit: I need to clarify on my first script request:
I need to mount the DMG on the remote Mac, not on the Mac I'm running the script from.

Need help with Soundblaster Live! 5.1 and King Theatre 5.1 speake

Hi,
First time ost and need some help.
Ok i bought a nice Soundblaster Li've! 5. sound card around a month ago. 2 days ago i bought myself som speakers "Kingtheatre 5." I doubt it any of you have ever heard of this brand, i bought speakers from local shop. Ok this is where the problems start. When i try to connect the speakers i can only ever get 4 out of 5 satelites to work and the subwoofer. If i change the wiring around, i will only ever have 4 speakers working at a time. Can anyone help me with the connecting. In the back of the subwoofer i have 3 cables, one says "Centre/subwoofer" the other says "Input | surround L/R" with the word Input on the side of it, and the last one says "Front L/R(Stereo)". At the back of my soundcard i have the following colour plug ins (sorry im only 4, im not used to technical terms) Ok from left to right black, green,pink(mic),blue and a orange/brownie colour. Can anyone help with the pluging it part.
Cheers, sorry about the long post.

Dooda,
If you can post a link for the layout diagram of your speaker system then it will be great.
From your description, you could try this. Connect the audio cable from subwoofer "Front L/R(Stereo)" to Green jack on the sound card, "Input | surround L/R" to the Black jack and "Centre/subwoofer" to the Orange jack on the sound card.
Do a speaker test via the Creative Surround Mixer application.

Help with 5.5 on the Cloud and on an iMac desktop

I work with another person on the layout of a magazine using InDesign. We're 1,000 miles appart. For the last two years we've been shuttling the layout back and fort successfully. We both had/have 5.5. He recently bought a new mac and signed up for the Cloud. I sent him my file, he made changes and sent it back to me. I cannot open it. I get a CANNOT OPEN FILE message box with a long list of plug-ins that I need. Now were in trouble with a deadline 10 days away. He can open my 5.5 files, but I can't open his. I'm very happy with InDesign on my desktop and have no interest in moving to the Cloud.

If you have to work with someone in the cloud you have to work at least with CS6 and ask him to work with CS6 which is able to get from the cloud and which is available to get as buy version.
If he insist to work with CC (a lot of reasons are given) you have to go to the cloud too.
The exchange of InDesign files as IDML is not very recommandable as there a lot of changes in the layout after converting and opening in the other version.
Yes, InDesign is opening an older version's file but not a newer version's file and that is the problem you are running in.

Help with Illustrator Script! Batch convert files including subfolders - please help! :)

Hello,
I honestly have tried reading the other answers and researching to try to solve this problem. I'm sorry for my ignorance in this area. Please help!!!
I'm trying to make a script (for Illustrator CS2) that will batch convert several files to PNG files. The source folder has several subfolders and I need the script to go into the subfolders and convert those files as well. The destination directory should be an entirely separate folder but with the same hierarchy as the original source folder.
The script I have been using (that converts just as I need) is below. The only problem is it doesn't do the subfolders.
Any help would be so amazingly appreciated!

Need help with an automator workflow to convert AAC files to MP3

Hi
I am trying to work out a way to automatically convert voice memos which I dictate on my iPhone to MP3 files when they are added to my iTunes library during a sync. Then I need the converted files to be in a specific folder so that they will trigger an auto-transcription program that I have running.
From my limited knowledge of automating processes on my Mac it would seem that I need to design a workflow or a folder action in Automator. Probably a folder action would be best, as I could attach it to the 'Voice Memos' folder in my iTunes Music Folder. The converted MP3 files would be saved in the same folder and would then be recognised by the transcription program. I have tried to design a workflow/folder action using Doug's iTunes automator actions as follows, but it is not working as I would like. The workflow is as follows:
Folder Action/Get Folder Contents/Choose encoder (MP3)/Convert Tracks/Choose encoder (apple lossless)/Restore Encoder.
The folder action is triggered when I add AAC files to the folder I have attached the action to, but then I get an error message stating that 'no tracks have been sent to this action'.
i would be grateful for any help to get this working using the automator method or another method
thanks

Help with imported eps files from photoshop and illustrator using PANTONE

I am new to InDesign and running into some very frustrating issues. I am preparing a catalogue for print which was created in Quark XPress previously. I tried converting it initially but had all kinds of strange things happening with type re-wrapping. The printer advised to recreate in InDesign. FIne by me because I'll learn as I go along.
So I created a page in InDesign and place and eps file created in Illustrator using a spot Pantone color and a halftone created in Photoshop also using the same spot Pantone color. In InDesign the color swatch menu show both colors one as 228 C and the other as 228 C 1. How do I get just one definition for PMS228 coated that works across all three programs? Stuff like this pisses me off. Adobe should have one definition across all three.
Help!!!

My best guess for the two definitions is that the CMYK values of the colours do not match, so InDesign treats them separately. You can merge them using the In Manager. Open the Swatches panel and select Ink Manager from the flyout menu. Select PANTONE 228C 1, go to the Ink Alais pop-up menu, and select PANTONE 228. Now InDesign will treat the two colours as one separation on output.
You should also take the time to open each graphic and resave as a native file. This means .psd for Photoshop and .ai for Illustrator. While there, see if you can make sure the colour names and definitions are consistent.
