How to run a 32-bit plugin on 64-bit Mac in PS CS5?

Hi...
I have developed an automation plugin for PS CS 3,4 & 5 using CS4 SDK in 32-bit Mac processor.
Problem with this is that the plugin works for CS5 in 32-bit mode, but the plugin doesn't load when tried with CS5 on 64-bit mode. I made changes in the PiPL, but still no change. I referred the steps mentioned in the documentation for creating a 64-bit plugin, but in the "Step 3: Fix entry point and PiPL", it says that the entry point needs to be changed. But, the entry point mentioned is different from the Automation plugin entry-point. Can you please suggest a way to overcome this problem?
Thanks!

Hello!
I think that the best place to ask that question is in the Plug-insSDK forum: http://forums.adobe.com/community/photoshop/photoshop_sdk?view=discussions

How to run i tunes version 10.6.3 on mac os x 10.6, 32 bit mode? it gives mesg to go into 32 bit mode but i cant get into it pls help

how to run i tunes version 10.6.3 on mac os x 10.6, 32 bit mode? it is downloded in 64 bit mode. when i start i tunes it gives mesg to go into 32 bit mode by going into finder, choose the the "get info command" then check the check box "32 bit mode in window" but i am not finding the check box of 32 bit mode. pls help

That crash appears to be casued by the Facebook plug-in.
Create a new account (systempreferences -> accounts or Users & Groups on 10.7 and 10.8), make a new Library in that account, import some shots and see if the problem is repeated there. If it is, then a re-install of the app might be indicated. If it's not, then it's likely the app is okay and the problem is something in the main account.

32 bit plugins in 64 bit Konqueror?

I was searching around for stuff and I found this about running 32 bit plugins in 64 bit Konqueror:
http://www.linuxfordummies.org/index.ph … ic=625.new
I tried exactly what it said and the 32 bit nspluginscan file hangs at 5%. I ran into another page that said that all you need is the 32 bit nspluginviewer file. I tried that and the nsplugin scan worked, but to no avail. I'm wondering if these people have a basic 32 bit chroot environment and don't know it. I also ran across other pages that have a more sophisticated approach, but they are based on Gentoo and Debian which both have modular KDE builds. I'm curious if others have run across this and have had any success.
The implications are stagering. Konqueror already runs Java applets (if you have the Java pointing towards the java executable in your JRE and not the generic 'java' command). Also, Sun caved on the 64 bit plug-in; they're trying to get it out the door with Mustang (Mozilla only). I've heard that Helix Player already builds natively in 64 bit and Real is working on their part. The next MPlayer (today's SVN) plays nearly all WM files natively. If Flash were up one way or another... We're nearly (already?) at the point of 64 bit Linux being the multi-media powerhouse that 32 bit Linux is.

Hey skottish... (nice old post to bump)
I've added two packages (and a bunch of lib32 dependency packages) to AUR...
The first is nspluginwrapper-konq, it patchs nsplugins with fixed NPAPI headers and makes nspluginwrapper work with konqueror.
The second (better, all singing, all dancing, kick ass) option/package lib32-konqueror-nsplugins uses 32bit nsplugins (from the i686 package). I recomend using this one, as anyone who has used nspluginwrapper in FF knows it's not 100% stable (but it's always good to have options ).
Enjoy!

I need to know how to run Flash Player in a Vista 32-bit browser running on a 64-bit O.S.

Help please ! I have been reading for days, trying everything to find the answer to my dilemma, which BTW is making it impossible to use our new computer now. Every other minute it seems I get the message that I need to run Flash Player in a VISTA 32-bit browser which is actually running on a 64-bit operating system. Do I have to uninstall a program (what and where is it) and then instal something else (from where etc.)?
Give me back our XP! I get the idea that Adobe keeps SAYING they are developing a platform for Adobe Flash to run on a 64-bit, but I fear that is only a stall. Who is responsible for helping neophytes? No matter how many times I have tried to contact Adobe, it is a joke. One time, even though I do not have a subscription for service, the poor man took pity on me. But his Indian accent was so severe I have ZERO idea what he was saying. Can one of you wonderful, erudite, helpful people out there give me the solution in computer language 101?? I will be forever grateful. I wish our computer "guru" had been smart enough to give us the pros and cons when he suggested Vista and 64..... When I am asked for a serial number even I have no earthly idea how to get that either. I feel completely HELPLESS and SLEEPLESS in Tucson. Thanks SOOOO much to whomever can get me going in the right direction. (Forgive my LONG message. I had to vent. I feel better.) CLOWG

Hi Clowg,
Sorry to hear that you are having trouble. Unfortunately, I don't believe the folks here on this forum will be able to help you with your issue. Have you tried posting on the Flash Player forum?

How to run Berkeley DB XML on AMD 64-bit Windows XP platform?

Hi,
I have used Berkeley DB XML on a 32-bit Windows XP platform but now
I have to run Berkeley DB XML on a 64-bit AMD platform with Windows XP.
After reading a few posts about that, I started to build Berkeley DB XML in 64-bit mode.
I am doing the building with Visual Studio 2005 on my 32-bit Windows XP platform.
But the build process does not finish successful.
I got errors saying:
fatal error C1083:
Cannot open include file: 'jni.h': No such file or directory
c:\berkeley_new\dbxml-2.4.16\dbxml\src\java\dbxml_java_wrap.cpp     149

c:\berkeley_new\dbxml-2.4.16\dbxml\build_windows\x64\Release_static\BaseInputStream.obj     1     Because of this only the DLL "libdb46.dll" has been created new.
But there should be also some more DLLs. These DLLs are missing inside the dbxml/bin folder:
libdb_java46.dll
libdbxml24.dll
libdbxml_java24.dllI go the old 32-bit compiled DLLs but when using them I got an exception saying:
java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: C:\berkeley_db_dll\libdb_java46.dll: Can't load IA 32-bit .dll on a AMD 64-bit platform1) What can I do?
2) Is there a chance to get all the related DLLs compiled for 64-bit from someone/somewhere?
Thanks.

Maybe try cleaning and rebuilding.

How to run macos universal built binary on 32 bit boot of macbook pro

I have lot of doubts using universal built binary. I didnt get required information about universal binary from google or documentation provided by macos on universal binary.
Here are the steps I followed:
1) I compiled my application selecting architectures i386 and x86_64 (from xcode).
2) I see application is built as fat binary which supports i386 and x86_64 (using file command).
TestApp: Mach-O universal binary with 2 architectures
TestApp (for architecture x86_64): Mach-O 64-bit executable x86_64
TestApp (for architecture i386): Mach-O executable i386
3) Now the problem is when I boot 32 bit kernel on macbook pro and try to execute my universal binary, it is behaving as 64 bit architecture application( sizeof(long) and sizeof(char *) is coming as 8 bytes).
For this I found a way how to run universal binary selecting architecture:
arch -i386 ./TestApp
This selects i386 architecture from fat binary and runs the application(sizeof(long) and sizeof(char *) is 4 bytes).
However, my requirement is I should run universal binary on i386 as i386 application without using arch command.
Are there any xcode settings to be made to make universal binary run as i386 application on 32 bit macos boot ??? Can we select architectural preferences for running universal binary application ??
Please help.
Regards,
Sumanth

This is the thing I am doing with my application:
ioctlBuff.pvInputBuffer = Address of some structure;
ioctlBuff.ulInputLength = sizeof(some structure);
ioctlBuff.pvOutputBuffer = pOutputBuffer;
ioctlBuff.ulOutputLength = dwOutputBufferLength;
and calling: ioctl((int)pDevIO->m_hDevice, dwIoctl,&ioctlBuff);
If I make sure driver is hit with the ioctl code I am calling(by maintaining sizeof third parameter in _IOWR('k', 0x854, typedef structure) to be same in driver and application), driver is getting hit with that ioctl code.
And here is the main issue:
now driver does:
copyfromuser(&sRdmBuffer, psIoBuffer->InputBuffer, psIoBuffer->InputLength), it fails to copy as InputBuffer passed by user space is 64 bit pointer!!
I conformed values i pass to copyfromuser are valid.
BUT I DONT SEE ANY OF THESE ISSUES IF I USE
arch -i386 ./TestApp
for my universal binary as i386 set of text code is picked for execution!
Thats why I wanted to load i386 arch of my universal binary. I dont want to use arch command.

32 bit plugins in 64 bit Opera possible?

Hi all!
I'm considering installing the new Opera 9.50 (64 bit) and was wondering if anyone had some experiences with using 32 bit plugins (flash and such..).
I've read/heard rumors of the 9.50 version having some kind of built-in "nspluginwrapper"..? Ref this posting: http://my.opera.com/csant/blog/2007/10/ … -bit-opera
Any thoughts?
Jay

arch64 with opera 9.5 doesn't seem to work.
Doing a:
#file $fileflags "/usr/lib/opera/9.50/operapluginwrapper-ia32-linux" | sed 's/.*://'
Returns:
ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), for GNU/Linux 2.2.5, dynamically linked (uses shared libs), stripped
Which is a 32bit executable which isn't executable under arch64. The only way to execute this is in a 32bit chroot environment.
I created a wrapper around this wrapper to execute it in my chroot environment, however this doesn't work due to file descriptor errors. Because the command run is "detect -fd 59 /usr/lib/opera/plugins/libflashplayer.so". The number 59 changes every time opera is run.
Doing an strace on operapluginwrapper, shows that the program tries to write to file descriptor 59. As shown below:
write(59, "application/x-shockwave-flash:sw"..., 99) = -1 EBADF (Bad file descriptor)
write(59, "Shockwave Flash\0", 16) = -1 EBADF (Bad file descriptor)
write(59, "Shockwave Flash 9.0 r124\0", 25) = -1 EBADF (Bad file descriptor)
As such i'm not sure as to how to get this working.

Run postflight script for Plugin - step failed for mac

So when I try and install adobe flash player on my mac OS X version 10.5, I get a message saying "The following install step failed: run postflight script for plugin. Contact the software manufacturer for assistance.

Hello,
Flash Player no longer supports OS X 10.5. The last version to support OS X 10.5 is 10.3.183.90. You can download an archive.dmg file containing this version from http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/archived-flash-player-versions.html.

How to run a c++ compiler on a 64 bit Windows 8.1 laptop?

Respected sir,
I am a student of 11th standard and learn computer science( C++ language).
I bought a 64 bit Windows 8.1 laptop for programming purpose. But I came to know that I can't use my laptop for this purpose as most of the C compilers (in my knowledge, like turbo C etc.) being of 16 bit are not supported by 64 bit systems.
"THIS IS THE BIGGEST PROBLEM AND CONCERN FOR ME BECAUSE I DON'T HAVE A GOOD ECONOMIC CONDITION AND SO I DON'T HAVE MUCH MONEY TO BUY NEW LAPTOP AGAIN AND ON THE OTHER HAND I LIKE PROGRAMMING SO I CAN'T LIVE WITHOUT IT."
I have very little resources and in addition to this such problems make me feel what I can't tell you !
I searched a lot on the web about it but couldn't find any solution.
However, on your website I found a software- "VISUAL STUDIO 2013" free for students to program in any (given) language and for any (given) platform.
I downloaded it's setup (vs_community) on my laptop but this is a very large file so I need to know something before installing it on my PC.
I have some questions about it-
1) Will it be supported by my laptop?
2) Can I use this software to learn C++ ? If yes, then will it work in the same way as Borland C++ compiler as in schools?
3) Is it completely free or just a free trial version?
So PLEASE, PLEASE help me regarding this.
Your help is very very essential for me.
With regards-

How to run a thunderbolt hard disk on my old mac

Hi,
I heard from Western Digital supplier here in my country(Malaysia) that they will no longer come out with Firewire 800 hard disk and replace with Thunderbolts.
My company uses FW800 HDD for our Video Editing jobs and I would like to ask is there any ways that I can run Thunderbolts HDD on my old Mac Pros?
As far as I know, all my office machines does not have Thundebolts and it would cost a bomb for us to change all the Mac Pro.
I was told that they will be using USB3.0 for the upcoming batch of HDD but it will be still slow to use USB to work comparing to FW or Thunderbolt. Also our Mac Pros does not have USB3.0 ports as well so plugging in USB3.0 will only run at normal speed.
Would appreciate if anyone can share their knowledge and help me here.
Thanks
Best Regards,
Alistair.

There is no way to use Thunderbolt with a Mac Pro. There are PCI-e USB 3 cards for the Mac Pro, such as from CalDigital, but read closely about drivers.
You do';t have to buy FW800 drives from WD. You can buy the bare SATA drives then install them in FW800 enclosures from other companies. If the drives are larger than 2.2 TB, make sure the enclosure supports them,
For fast external storage you can use PCI-e cards to connect to external drive enclosures. There are simple cards, such as
<http://eshop.macsales.com/item/Newer%20Technology/MXPCIE6G2S2/>
or more elaborate ones, with features such as RAID, eight SATA ports, support for enclosures with port multipliers, etc.
This card
<http://www.firmtek.com/seritek/seritek-q6g/>
can support twenty SATA drives (four port multiplier enclosures with five drives each) for up to 80 TB.
You can use up to three cards.

How to run dollyx...

Hi,
I ve been modifying the sample code as required so long, but want to create a plugin from scratch. I read the ReadMe.txt in sdk/devtools, dint get a clear idea of how to run it...
I m using MAC OS...
Can someone tel me clearly how to run DollyXs.sh...
Wher should we run it, wat are the input xml files...
Is it possible to code without dollyX...
Someone pls guide me..
Thank You.

Use terminal. cd to the Dolly folder and launch the script:
> .... /sdk/devtools/sdktools/dollyxs]$ ./DollyXs.sh
This will start up the dolly program.
Yes, you can code without dolly, but it takes a bit more of settings up the first time. You can take a copy of any of the SDK sample projects and the start making the necessary changes; eg. ids, build paths, your prefix, etc. Once you have you first plug-in, keep a copy this and use it as starting point for you next plug-in.

32-bit plugin shortcut created on windows 64 does not work in PS CS6 (32bit)

Here is a really odd one.
I have 32-bit and 64-bit PS installed on Windows 8. If I have a 32-bit plugin in FOLDER32, and I manually create a shortcut in the 32-bit PS Plugins folder that points to FOLDER32, 32-bit PS will not load the plugin in FOLDER32.
If I do the same thing for a 64-bit plugin in 64-bit PS, it works fine.
However, if I create the shortcut to FOLDER32 from a 32-bit program (such as a custom 32-bit installer tool), then 32-bit PS *can* follow the shortcut and does see the plugin in FOLDER32.
Weird, huh?
Message was edited by: Shmoopie99 (made title more specific)

The WoW64 subsystem redirects shortcuts that point to the 64-bit Program Files to the 32-bit Program Files (x86) causing the plugin to not be found.
The simplest fix would be to copy the 32-bit plugin into the Plug-Ins folder of the 32-bit version of Photoshop.
Unfortunately Wow64DisableWow64FsRedirection does not work for %PROGRAMFILES%, so a 32-bit application would have to attempt to fix the path manually.

Logic Pro 9.1.6 in 32-bit not in 64-bit. Why?

I upgraded to LP 9.1.6 and when the app is launching it tells me it's running in 32-bit and not in 64-bit. I don't understand why, I am running the latest OS on the latest model MacBook Pro 15". Any ideas on why this happens and how to change it?
Thanks,
KN

This happens because it is a default setting in Logic itself, it has nothing to do with the system it happens to be on. The 32 bit setting is (has to be) the initial setting because of 3rd party plugin software compatibility reasons.
If you would start up Logic in 64 bit mode, Logic cannot validate and use any of the 32 bit plugins that a user may well have already installed.
That would render the 32 bit bridge, which is there to accommodate such 32 bit plugins in 64 bits Logic, useless, as logic cannot "offer" any 32 bit plugins to the bridge. For this very reason (the one time plugin validation by Logic) you will also have to start up Logic 32 bit mode every time you install any 32 bit plugin - and there are enough of 'm about.
But, all this is not relevant if you have no 32 bit AU plugins already installed and never plan to do so. You can set Logic to 64 bit as explained here:

How to run 32-bit PS plugin on CS5 in 64-bit Mac processor?

Hi...
I have developed an automation plugin for PS CS 3,4 & 5 using CS4 SDK in 32-bit Mac processor. I wanted to have a single build for all the three versions. I am unable to run my plugin on CS3, it loads, but no dialog comes up on clicking the menu item. I have used ADM suites for the dialog. I am unable to spot a solution, please guide me...
Also, another problem with this is that the plugin works for CS5 in 32-bit mode, but the plugin doesn't load when tried with CS5 on 64-bit mode. I made changes in the PiPL, but still no change. I referred the steps mentioned in the documentation for creating a 64-bit plugin, but in the "Step 3: Fix entry point and PiPL", it says that the entry point needs to be changed. But, the entry point mentioned is different from the Automation plugin entry-point. Can you please suggest a way to overcome this problem?
Thanks!

Update on the plugin compatibility with CS3.. It looked like an ADM compatibility issue.. I changed some suites versions.. Now, I am able to display the dialog, but now I have spotted a bigger problem.. that is, that the plugin aborts when it encounters an "sSPBasic->AcquireSuite" statement. I can't see why.. The error code is 1394689636 which points to "S!FD", i.e., Suite not found.. How can this be? Please guide... Its urgent..
Thanks..!
