How to I import MAX 4.6 config files into MAX 5.5? Missing Data Neighborhood. Strain gage set up is different.

I have been trying to import my config file from MAX 4.6 into a new system running MAX 5.5 and daq 9.8.
The data neighborhood does not appear, however my application sees the information. How can this be remedied? Start over?  I have a lot of inputs and would rather not have to recreate all of them.
What is the difference between the strain gage settings in MAX 4.6 and MAX 5.5? The selection box for the bridge in 4.6 has a selection for "let niDAQ choose". Seems that is necessary to use the 4.6 config data. Try though I might, the readings in 5.5 do not match those in 4.6.     Is there a work around fo this? I don't want to have to perform an entire system calibration.
Thanks
Chris

Attached JPG's.
Here is more information regarding the MAX Strain Set Up.
Attached are screen shots from MAX 4.6 and MAX 5.5. 
Hardware:  PXI chassis with bridge to a PC.  SCXI-1520 input card.
Software: Old system:  Windows XP SP2 running MAX 4.6 with niDAQmx 9.0.2,   programming in LabView 2011
                   New system: Windows 7 running MAX 5.5 with niDAQmx 9.8.  Programming in LabView 2013
5.5:  What is the gage factor?  Is that the mv/v sensitivity of the load cell?
5.5:  Asks for Gage resistance, easy to look up and I entered the data, 350.
5.5:  How do I determine the Initial Voltage?
5.5:  No choice of using V Excitation for scaling
5.5:  Is Full Bridge I the same as 4.6 Full Bridge?
5.5:  Requires use of Strain in scale factor
4.6:  Requires use of Volts in scale factor (flags an error if I try Strain and requests Volts)
4.6:  Choosing to use Vex for scaling makes readings look similar to 5.5 readings, but still not correct. ie around -79 in 5.5 and around -50 in 4.6 vs. 5.2 without.
Is there a way to set MAX 5.5 so that it provides the same starin set  up function as 4.6? If so, what is it?
Thanks,

    I bought Numbers because my Excel files would not work with Mavericks. How can I import a non-functioning Excel file into numbers? (As of now, the file NAME transfers but data does not.)

    HI Dave,
    I'm surprised you get no message when you attempt opening the Excel document in Numbers.
    I'm assuming Numbers 3.1, since you are running Mavericks.
    Does the Numbers file that opens show any content?
    Does it contain a table?
    How large?
    Does it contain more than one tab (indicating more than one sheet)?
    Do those other tabs contain a table?
    Have you checked those tables for data content?
    There have been cases in the past of imported documents opening with white text on a white background, giving the appearance of containing nothing. Check for this by selecting a block of cells, then applying a Fill colour or a Text colour using the Format button (paintbrush).
    I'd also suggest attempting to open the Excel files using LibreOffice, which can be downloaded from the linked website.

  • How do I import an Amadeus Pro sound file into iMovie?

    I am fairly new to the Imovie 08 program and have a few questions.
    I've made the moveie and am in the process of editing out what I need and don't need. I have a sound file that I created in Amadeus pro that I need to use as the voice-over for the movie. I just can't figure out how to use that sound file over the movie. Can anyone help?
    Thanks

    The sound file must be in a supported audio codec like MP3, AAC, or several others.
    Place the sound file in a drive and a folder where you can leave it while your video project is active. If you move it later by using the finder, iMovie will not know how to find it.
    Now, drag the file into iMovie and drop it on the first clip where you want it to start playing.

  • How do you import CSV, tab, and OFX files into multiple Numbers columns

    This Apple function from Numbers '08 Help "Importing a Document" does not seem to work:
    "You can create a new Numbers spreadsheet by importing a document created in Microsoft Excel or AppleWorks 6. Numbers can also import files in comma-separated value (CSV) format, tab-delimited format, and Open Financial Exchange (OFX) format."
    No amount of experimenting with Import, Export, Save As, Paste and Match Style, or using other applications will enable importing CSV, tab, or OFX files into multiple Numbers columns. Instead, all data is imported into a single Numbers column, which then has to be manually and tediously parsed one data element at a time into columns, one row, and one column at a time.

    Joe,
    They all have worked here. I'm not presently able to try in Numbers 08, but I know I've done them all.
    Just double-clicking a .csv file will open Numbers and display the data in a table. Dragging a .csv file to your Numbers icon on the Dock will open it as a Numbers table. Dragging it to a Sheet in an open Numbers document will make a new table in an existing document, and dragging to a table will insert the csv file into the table you dropped it into.
    CAUTION
    With Numbers '08, CSV files must use the comma as delimiter on every setting of decimal separator.
    Numbers '09 behave differently.
    With your tab-delimited file open in a word processor, copy it, then paste it into a table in an open Numbers document. When doing this, select a cell in the table, but don't double-click into the text field of the cell, then paste.
    Why use this long road when we may import directly Tab Separated Values file (tsv.txt) with Numbers '08 (or '09) ?

  • How do I import my Outlook 2013 PST file into Office 365 and then have them permanently synced?

    I have Office 365. I have Outlook 2013 downloaded on my computer with all my emails and contacts, etc.
    I want to import the entire PST file with my emails, contacts etc. into Office 365 / Exchange Online (cloud?). Once that is done, I want to set it up so that my Desktop Outlook will always update and sync with my Office 365 when I am out of the office and
    use the Outlook mail App.
    PLEASE HELP!

    Hi,
    You can also use Outlook or Outlook Web App to import your existing PST file into your Office 365 account.
    First configure your Office 365 account into Outlook, then use Import/Export
    feature in Outlook client to import your PST file:

  • How do I import an InDesign tagged text file into multiple pages and export as .ps or .pdf using Jav

    I have an InDesign tagged text file I've translated from .xml. I need to automate the following steps:
    1 - access specific InDesign template (eg. ABC_template.ind)
    2 - import tagged text file into InDesign
    3 - autoflow text to END of document (normally around 3-5 pages)
    4 - save document as either .ps or .pdf file
    5 - where the input file stub name matches the output stub name (eg., OrigName.txt outputs as OrigName.pdf).
    I would like to completely automate this whole process using JavaScript (because I don't know anyone that knows AppleScript). I've automated the first part using a perl script. I've been trying to find sample snipits of JavaScript that would do one or more of the items listed above, but am having a hard time finding what I need.
    Please, I'm desperate!! Can any of you InDesign scripting guru's out there help me??
    Thanks in advance!!

  • How can I import or convert a .swf file into iMovie 8

    I've been searching with no luck for a way to convert a flash animation (.swf) file into a format that I can import into iMovie 8. Ideally, this would involve freeware or very inexpensive software. It is important that I maintain the quality (and audio) of the original swf file.
    Can anyone suggest a route?
    Many thanks.

    The easiest method is to use screen capture software to "record" the .swf file as it plays.
    Since .swf files use vector graphics you can scale it up in dimension (to fit your iMovie Project needs) without any loss in quality.
    I'm a happy user of SnapzProX http://www.ambrosiasw.com/utilities/snapzprox/ as it records in QuickTime formats.

    and below it a
    SAVE window
    If I click SAVE, both windows disappear, a file with nothing in it appears in browser and when try to play it in the viewer, there is just black....
    Is this all because FCE HD 3 won't support iMove HD 6? so I will need to upgrade to FCE HD 4?

    Use File>Import>Files.
    iMovie Projects as a whole do not Import correctly whereas individual clips do but will need the audio rendering to play correctly.

  • Import a .srt or .sub file into QuickTime movie

    How do I import a .srt or .sub file into QuickTime movie (i.e. pre-made subtitles). I don't want to burn or create a new copy of this movie. I'd just like to view this movie (which is in Italian) with the *.srt subtitle file that came with it.
    PowerBook G4   Mac OS X (10.4.9)   QuickTime 7.1.6

    Thank you Dave, but unfortunately I've tried both of these. Well, I don't have QT-Pro, just the regular OEM version and incorporated the TitleLab components to my Library > QuickTime folder, but to no success.
    Do you think that this TitleLab software will work properly on OS X 10.4 and QuickTime 7? This product is designed to run on the following operating systems: Mac OS Classic, Mac OS X 10.1 & Mac OS X 10.2...
    So, the upgraded QuickTime 7 Pro doesn't have a native subtitling ability? That's unfortunate!
    I also tried the Perian "JackKnife" beta version. It doesn't quite work... It pretty much places the subtitles in brand new blank screens (not aligned with the film at all). I.e. The film will run, talking will occur, then the screen will go blank and the subtitles will appear at the top, then the subtitles will disappear (after the same duration as the film portion) and the film will resume... Essentially, it's messed up.
    Thanks. Maybe another suggestion?

  • How can i import contacts from a csv file to "iCloud Contacts"?

    How can I import contacts from a csv file to "iCloud Contacts"?

    The only way I know of to import cells from a csv file is by creating a new file.  But then you can select the desired cells and copy them to the other file.  I just did it to be sure it works.
    1. Create the new spreadsheet file via the upload command.
    2. Select the cells (table) that you want to move to the other file and press command+C (copy).
    3. Close the new file and open the existing file.
    4. Select the top/right cell of the area to receive the copied "table" and press commant+V (paste).
    I hope this is what you're trying to do!

  • How could I Import RAW  photos from sony A300 into Lightroom 1.4.1?

    How could I Import RAW photos from sony A300 into Lightroom 1.4.1?
    RAW photos files in sony A300 are saved as "*.arw".
    any one can help?

    This is well known bug. One day Adobe will recognise that with the best live view system (A350/300) and best usability (A700) they need to take the Sony DSLR's seriously.
    Use the Import function, but use "choose files". Your CF card (in Camera or reader) will just be another drive. Navigate down to the folder with the pictures - control+A, choose selected. Then choose copy to new location and import (safer than using move).
    Don't forget to tick the backup box.
    Hope this helps. Peter
