HT5093 What collada nodes are supported in iBooks author?

There are many, many nodes available within the Collada framework, and iBooks only supports a handful of these. For instance, iBooks supports uv mapped textures, but not alpha channel maps.  I think it supports animation, but I don't know what are the limitations of this.  I am mystified why Apple, as the software author, does not provide a fuller documentation, or at least answer these types of basic questions themselves directly.  I don't know of other software authors that don't answer questions about their software!

or at least answer these types of basic questions themselves directly.
If you mean here, know that the forums are strictly user-to-user.

Have you tried using the support contact and phone number in the 8.23 email from iTunes Connect.

  • HT5093 what features of the collada format are supported in ibooks author? has anyone worked through this?

    I have been experimenting with inserting a collada file into an ibooks author file, via the 3D widget.  I use SketchUp and Modo to create the textured object, but I am having trouble getting anything other than a 'tumbling' view of the object in ibooks.  I want to set a camera in the scene, and be able to see that POV (point of view) from within ibooks.  I would also like to animate the camera, so I can create a controlled, first-person walk-through of the scene.  So far, I haven't had any luck.  If anyone else has sorted through some of this, please chime in here.
    Thanks!

    Hi pggirvin,
    We are awaiting upload for a book with lots of 3D Widgets, and had to do a lot of it via trial and error ( using 3DS Max to export to Collada ).
    We did get an animating camera working, but as soon as you touch the widget the animation stops and you go into look around mode - where the pivot to rotate around is normally not where you want it to be.
    A good option would be for animated cameras to a) play once, then pivot and end, or b) continuously loop
    Just to clarify, 3D Widgets in iBooks Author do support an animating camera ( we had issues with multiple cameras, as only one gets choses, so maybe make sure you only have one camera in the whole scene when exporting ).

    What video cards are supported for os X? besides the one apple sells.

    There is no official list from Apple, since they don't support hardware besides what they will install. YOu can look up support for certain cards, since people have used 3rd party ones. YOu should be able to come up with a particular cards compatability.

  • What video files are supported by iMovie 10.0.6?  I have to somehow convert .rcproject files to something that iMovie will accept but I don't know what kind of format to change to.

    What video files are supported by iMovie 10.0.6?  What is the best way to allow iMovie 10.0.6 accept my .rcproject movies?

    Hey Sioux Falls,
    If you are looking for information on converting or updating older iMovie projects to iMovie 10, you may find the following article helpful:
    Update projects and events from previous versions of iMovie in iMovie (2014) - Apple Support
    Note: To clarify, a .rcproject file generally only contains links and references to movie clips and effects that would be part of an iMovie project; it usually does not contain any actual video.
    Cheers,

    Just to avoid confusion - during provisioning, the phone is downloading a configuration from remote server. Phone is client. Provisioning process require a server (HTTP or FTP or TFTP) running somewhere.
    You are speaking about browser, not server, so it seems you are speaking about manual configuration of phone, not the provisioning. Even in the case you are speaking about server, you speaking about upgrade of OS, not the provisioning (HTTP/FTP/TFTP) server software. On the other side, you are speaking about "initial profile downloads from Windows 7" asking about browser versions. I'm confused. Can you explain what are you trying to do in more details ?
    Something like: "I did A, expecting B as result but C happened".
    Debug/log from phone device and/or catched communication between browser and phone and/or phone and provisioning server may help to analyze the problem.

  • What image types are supported in iMovie?

    I'm going on a trip with a group of youth, and I'm wanting to send video updates back to their family members during the trip. I've gotten an image to sync to my iPhone 4, and I can import it into iMovie, but while it shows the photo at the bottom, it won't actually show the image in the movie preview area?
    Importing photos that were taking on the iPhone works, as does taking a photo directly from iMovie, but I want to add some special graphics into the Movie itself.
    Is there a way to tell what formats are supported? The image was made in gimp, 700x300 @ 150dpi exported as a PNG and as a JPG, but neither of them work.

    I'm not sure if you tried this, but here it goes:
    _ Using your Mac, make a copy of your Graphic / image to your Desktop
    _ Launch "Preview" on your Mac
    _ Save the file as a JPG
    _ Quit "Preview"
    _ Copy this newly saved JPG to "iPhoto"
    _ Quit "iPhoto"
    _ Launch "iTunes"
    _ Plug your iPhone4 via USB
    _ From "iTunes", select the iPhone4 and go to the Photos Tab.
    _ Make sure the Event or Album of the Graphics/iMage you created above, is Checked
    _ Sync your iPhone
    Now from your iPhone4, verify that you can add this photo into iMovie.

  • How to determine (in bulk) whether a document has OCR text and what reader versions are supported?

    Help!
    I've inherited a task which has spanned many years and which was not well thought out over the transitions.  At least three project teams have scanned and stored tens of thousands of documents to PDF.  What was discovered subsequently was that the project teams did not apply a uniform standard for which versions of Adobe would be supported in each PDF, and that not all documents appear to have been OCR'ed as part of the scan process.
    This has resulted in two major problems.  First, PDFs which support all Reader versions are bloated and consuming significant amounts of storage; second, the automated processing tools which depend upon the OCR text are failing once they pass the front and rear cover sheets (which do contain extractable text).  I need to know if there is a way that PDFs can be bulk scanned to determine which Reader versions are supported (say 8.0 to current), and if the OCR'ed / extractable text is not just limited to the first few and last pages of each PDF.
    I have been manually fixing individual files with Adobe Acrobat 9.0.  I can force Adobe to re-OCR and save the files, but I would rather not have to re-process the existing bulk that we have unless absolutely necessary.  If I could determine which ones need fixing and just processing those it will save man years of work.
    Thanks, in advance, for any assistance.
    Michael

    What I meant by supporting a version of Reader is that I don't need the files to be fully backwards compatible all the way back to say the first few versions of Adobe Reader.  (There are likely limitations on that much backwards compatibility, anyway.)  One of the scanners that was used apparently was set for full backwards compatibility, to the extent possible, for every PDF that it generated.  Some of those PDFs are huge, commonly 300-400MBs in size.  If I open them in Acrobat 9.0, limit the backwards compatibility to Adobe Reader 8.0 and forward, then resave the file, the size is often significantly reduced.
    As to how it is measured, there is something in the PDF itself that indicates a minimum version for Adobe Reader for compatibility purposes.  When you select for compatibility in Acrobat during the save process I mentioned, you get to pick the version at which you want to stop -- so if you selected 8.0, it would be compatible with 8.0, 9.0, and so on.

  • What photoshop programs are supported by Mac OS X v10.4?

    I was hoping to download elements 11, but it's not supported. I don't want lightroom...I'm not really sure what my options are- I'm looking for something as recent to elements 11 as i can... does anyone have any tips?

    I think the last versions for that OS are PSE 9 and CS4, respectively. It's a moot point, though. There is no way to buy these versions any more orther than a used license from someone else...

    Oh, I was not discounting it's utility for your general 10.4.7 (and higher) users. I can think of several situations where it'd be most advantageous. If the user does have 10.4.7 and has permissions to install Perian, then it's near the top of the list of "things nice to have."
    I was just saying that it's generally a good idea to work out everything on the sending end so that all the recipient has to do is open and enjoy. Most of us have had stuff converted to .WMV so that Windows users wouldn't NEED to install QuickTime to see our video, it's the same kind of thinking.
