How to use Script Editor to open iTunes visualizer?
I have an AppleScript which I used to use in previous versions of OS X to open a visualizer and put it into full screen if music was currently playing. If no music was playing, then it would turn off the visualizer and take iTunes out of full screen. This script still works, but only if iTunes is already open and you can see iTunes on the desktop. If iTunes is open with music playing, but not visible(not visible on the desktop aka minimized or you clicked the red "x" to close iTunes, but not actually quit it), then I get the error...
"Can’t set «class pVsE» of application "iTunes" to true.
iTunes got an error: Can’t set visuals enabled to true. (-10006)"
How can I fix this error so it no longer happens?
I believe I just need to find a way to bring iTunes to the desktop, even if it's already open. Again, it works just fine if you can see iTunes on the desktop
Any suggestions?
I am using Mac OS X Yosemite 10.10.3.
Thanks for any help!
Here is the Apple Script...
tell application "iTunes"
activate
delay 1
if player state is playing then
if visuals enabled is true then
set full screen to false
delay 3
set visuals enabled to false
else if visuals enabled is false then
set visuals enabled to true
set full screen to true
end if
end if
end tell
The visualizer appears to be bound to the browser window - if there is no browser window, enabling the visualized fails.
The simplest solution, therefore, may be to show the browser window before trying to enable the visualizer:
else if visuals enabled is false then
set visible of browser window 1 to true -- add this line to show the browser window
set visuals enabled to true
set full screen to true
end if

Create a counter for the rows in a table using script editor?
Hi ,
I want to add afield in a particular table with first field is its serial number . How to use scripting editor to fill the serial number ?
How to create a counter ?
Edited by: Rajan.Dexter9 on Jan 30, 2012 9:40 PMHello Rajan,
Create a field in the table and name it as 'SERIAL'. Create a variable called 'count' with default value as 0. Now in script editor, for javascript language and calculate event, write the following script.
var fields = xfa.layout.pageContent(xfa.layout.page(this)-1, "field", 0);
for (var i=0; i <= fields.length-1; i++)
if (fields.item(i).name == "SERIAL")
count.value = count.value + 1;
this.rawValue = count.value; -
How can I stop the "Cannot Open iTunes" dialog
How can I stop the "Cannot Open iTunes" dialog when more than one user is logged into the computer without switch to the user using and closing iTunes. Why doesn't the dialog AT LEAST have the option to 'Do not attempt to open iTunes for this User any more' instead of the lazy programmer OK button only. OR Even the Do not ask this again option.
Just adding to the last answer:
Sony Reader; free download from Sony intended to run with Sony eReaders but works quite happily without.

I prefer ADE1.7.2 to Sony Reader, and Calibre to either (for DRM-free books),
but Sony Reader certainly worth a try to see how you get on with it. -

Beginners question, how to use script?
Hi there
Im on OSX, ID4, soon upgrading to ID5.5
I've been looking for a way to automatically add metadata (author) to a document/exported PDF.
So i found this http://forums.adobe.com/message/3443064 - looks like the answer I'm seeking, but how do i actually put that into use? Where/how to i add the script?
Can it be run upon opening/creating a new document, or upon exporting to PDF?
I'm an experienced indesign user, and I've done some visual basic, php before. But haven't used scripting in InDesign.
Any pointers in the right direction is greatly appreciated. Thanks.
- Lasse FernovHello, ldflkbuc943894353221:
tomaxxi's script in the thread you cite isn't really a normal script. It is a script that installs an event handler that is automatically triggered every time you create a new document in InDesign, suhc as with File > New.
You would save that file as, perhaps, tomaxxiAddXMP.jsx, and then you have some choices. You can just drop it in the User Scripts folder, according to http://www.danrodney.com/scripts/directions-installingscripts.html. At which point you would have to run it once per session (from the Scripts panel, after which point all subsequently created documents would have that happen.
Alternatively, you might want to use it as a startup script. This is an OK idea, except that it might violate your expectations and surprise you sometime if you forget about it. If you follow the above instructions, instead of installing it in the "Scripts Panel" directory, you would go one level up (to "Scripts") and create a directory called "Startup Scripts" and place it there.
Then restart InDesign. It will then always run whenever InDesign starts. -

How to use Property Editor from an Add-In?
Hi,
I am writing a WYSIWYG add-in for JDev that allows users to put some object into a JPanel instance.
Thess object has properties such as left, right, width, height, etc.
- Question: how to use JDev's property editor to allow users change properties of thess object?
- Another word: how to user JDev's Property Editor API from an add-in?
I looked at the document. It does not give me enough information about Property Editor.
Thanks in advance,
TrungHello Prasad,
You are on the right avenue - launch an external application which can connect to running Outlook instance and then close it. After this you can launch Outlook anew. Here are the steps required to get the job done:
1. Use the Marshal.GetActiveObject method which obtains
a running instance of the specified object from the running object table (ROT) - Outlook in your case, for example:
// Check whether there is an Outlook process running.
if (Process.GetProcessesByName("OUTLOOK").Count() > 0)
// If so, use the GetActiveObject method to obtain the process and cast it to an Application object.
application = Marshal.GetActiveObject("Outlook.Application") as Outlook.Application;
then use the
Quit method to close the running instance. The
associated Outlook session will be closed completely; the user will be logged out of the messaging system and any changes to items not already saved will be discarded.
2. Use the
Start method of the System.Diagnostics.Process class to start Outlook anew. -

You can't use Safari to upload or install any applications on the iPad, the only place to get apps for the iPad is the App Store app on your iPad an the iTunes app store on your computer's iTunes.

How to use VMRC SDK to open VM console
Hi,
I'm looking for some help to setup a custom solution that opens a console of a VM from a corporate intranet site. I'm new to the whole VMWare SDK world, but I've been able to easily use vCloud Suite SDK for .NET to expose some details on my User Interface. So far so good, but when it comes to VMRC plugin honestly it is totally unclear how to use it.
My need is just to show a button that opens a new web page with the console on it. In our infrastructure we're using vCloud Director 5.5.2.2233543
According to VMWare developer center, I downloaded VMware Remote Console (VMRC) SDK (version 5.5.0.1280474), linked from the main page, that comes with VMRC plugin installers and a directory where I can found vmrc-embed-example.html and vmrc-embed-example.js files. The first weird thing I've noticed is that the vmrc plugin installer included in SDK is different from the one shipped by our installed vCloud Director application. The first is named "VMware Remote Console Plug-in 5.5.0.33581", the latter "VMware Client Support Plug-in 5.5.0.41167". It looks like the first is an old version, but I cannot be sure about that of course, and I can't find a newer sdk on the other hand.
I payed attention to test the html page included in vmrc sdk with both plugins anyway (one at a time), just to try to understand. In both cases, running html page on the web browser and providing some data to use, I can connect succesfully to a VM, obtaining the following messages:
starting VMRC instance: modes: 0, messages: 1
startup returned "vmrc-np-t-{55D63FD3-925B-47C7-B96B-74659A57498E}"
connect succeeded
onConnectionStateChange - connectionState: 2, host: 172.18.x.y, datacenter: , vmId: vm-401, userRequested: true, reason: Connection successful.
That's all: from the messages it seems that it's working, but the box that should show the console remains white and nothing else happens. Any action on the other form's button results in error messages, among them the most recurrent is "Error calling method on NPObject!", that is the same message that pops up when trying to connect to a VM with no parameter or without pressing the startup button.
I really need some advice, any hint is appreciated, thanks in advance.After you've made a connection you should try setting the plugin to full screen mode by calling setFullScreen(true). I was receiving a black box in the middle of the screen until I had started setting to fullscreen. As far as the "Error calling method on NPObject", when I've had this message it was due to the fact the plugin was not ready for some reason, for example connecting to a vm and then immediately calling grapInput would result in this message. I was able to resolve by checking the plugin was ready (and in scope of the callee).
