I only see the image outline sometimes instead of the "dynamic graphics preview"?
I'm sure everyone who uses InDesign for any amount of time is aware of something I just recently found out is called the "dynamic graphics preview." [See Fig. 2, below]
The dynamic graphics preview is the whole image you temporarily see when your trying to crop, or position an image within a frame. It's the part of the image that falls outside of the frame. The parts of the image that fall outside of the image are temporarily "seen" transparently (faded), to indicate that those areas are not within the viewable area of the frame. You usually see this when you are trying to crop the image with the direct selection tool, after you click and hold on the image for a few seconds with the direct selection tool. The temporary transparent preview goes away once you decide on the position and let go of the mouse click.
So my issue is: when I click and hold, on certain images with the direct selection tool (white arrow) the dynamic graphics preview doesn't show up? All I see is the outline of the path of the image, with NO PREVIEW, or the outline of the shape (usually a rectangle), with NO PREVIEW.
For instance there was this one situation at work (where I work on catalogs) where the same image was copied six times, in order to make swatches, and when I clicked and held on those particular images the dynamic graphics preview would show, but not on the other images, even though they're the same image!? Meaning, the same exact image file, just copied six times.
So why can I see the temporary transparent preview for certain instances of the same image but not for others?
Has anyone else ever experienced this?
Again any answers are completely appreciated.

The first question would be does it work if you try again and wait a bit longer before moving the mouse?
Next, does it happen in more than this file?
Does it continue to happen if you restart the computer?
Does it happen if you use a ne user account?
– Nope. Tried that.
– It happens in other files as well. The situation is similar also, where one copy of the same file will show the dynamic graphic preview but the other copies will not.
– Yes, even after restart, it persists. It occured again today in fact.
– Yes. Even after I login in with a different account, I get the same issue. Others in my office have had the same issue. Can it be server related? Or permisions related? I don't see how that can be when it's the same exact file, and on one copy it works but on the others it doesn't.
..Makes no sense at all.
By the way this is all happening on CS 5.5 - version 7.5.2 [Fig. 3].
NOTE: The images above [Fig. 1-2] show CS 3 screen shots because they were made from my computer at home, which as far as I know don't have the same problem with the dynamic graphics preview (DGP). Those images are only there to help illustrate what the DGP is. All the issues with the DGP are occuring in CS 5.5.

My kids had 2 games of clash of clans on 1 game centre. Now I can only see one? How can I find the other one?
My daughter set up a game centre on her ipad. My son, on his ipad used the same game centre log in. He then set up his own game of clash of clans. After my son set up his Clash of Clans, my daugher set up her own Clash of Clans using the same game centre log in on her ipad. Both were using the Clash of Clans successfully on their own ipads using the same game centre log in.
One day my son signed into someone elses Clash of Clans, since then he is unable to go back to his Clash of Clans and can only see his sisters.
Please let me know if this can be resolved.
We wish to delete my daughters Clash of Clans - as she does not use it at all. We would like to regain access to my sons.
My son can visit his Clash of Clans - his clan name is 'The Big Boys' He has a shield that is blue with a yellow lightning from top right to bottom left. His name is Fat Poo (I know ridiculous).
If you can help us or advise us what to do we would make my son very happy
thanksThanks for taking a stab at it: that didn't prove to be the problem. That option in the settings for tabbed browsing was not checked.
I may be a bit behind the times: I am used to tabbed browsing showing all the tabs it possibly can, instead of just the last one. Sometimes it won't even show the last tab: I can have 15 tabs open, and not see a single tab. I've been confused by this into closing a window with lots of tabs open, because it looks like a single page-window.
My main problem with the tab-bar flashing to the end of the row is that it means a great deal more mouse-clicking around to browse.
I haven't tried installing the latest beta. Maybe that would fix the problem.

When I create a PDF with Adobe Reader XI, it wont take the links behind the images. Sometimes he does, mostly not.. Whats the solution? The links in text do work!
Hello,
How can I give a answer back in the discussion on Adobe.com?
I don’t see any link?
1. We have a subscription.
2. Im converting a newsletter from the web to PDF.
3. Sometimes I put a weblink behind the image in the newsletter. Most of the time PDF wont take the links behind the image.
Only the tekstlinks are OK.

most times when I import photos from my desktop or dropbox to iPhoto, iPhoto will keep the title I created for the image as the display title under the image. but occasionally it displays the filename instead and I have to go back through and reenter the title in iPhoto. why the inconsistency? running OS 10.9.5 and using iPhoto 9.5.1
Try this: select one of the photos that are showing the wrong title and use the Photos ➙ Batch Change ➙ Title to File Name menu option.
See if that will put the name that you want under the thumbnail. -

I buy for mac app but not for the iPad, so how do I reinstall a program that has already purchased? I need help because I bought the imovie'11 but when he opened it only brought 8 movie trailer templates instead of the 15 it says on the program. How do I solve this problem? Once paid for a program incomplete. I also liked that the AppStore itself had a button to reinstall programs already bought, because it is very hard to understand how to do this in the store, only option is to install and hide purchase, and how do I reinstall, attention'm talking about reinstalling a computer mac, not an ipad or iphone.
Thank you.Prodesigntools.com , go ahead and download the software from there and use your serial number to serialize it.

I have bought a Macbook Pro Retina, and the iPhoto which comes with it, has a different iPhoto Book menu. I cannot see how to put text at the bottom of the pages of photographs, instead of the default place in the middle. Is there a way to do this?
There are different templates for iPhoto books and they differ from version of iPhoto to iPhoto, so explore the other options.

I am working in pages with a template and want to keep the image but get rid of the black background?
Surprise surprise but we can't see what you are looking at and referring to.
What black background?
If it is black background in the actual photo:
Menu > Format > Instant Alpha > drag the cursor over the colored background you wish to remove

I found this fantatic post regarding querying the user profile service
http://blogs.technet.com/b/anneste/archive/2011/11/02/how-to-create-an-infopath-form-to-auto-populate-data-in-sharepoint-2010.aspx?pi47623=2#comments
However i have an issue whenever the form is opened again either to view or edit, it displays the current users information
instead of the value of the person who completed the form in the first place.
Please help me, I'm turning more grey each minuteI think it is how the current user information is stored based on your logic.
You might be quering current value again when loading the form (Form load Rule).
you have to tweak your logic, after the user submits the form you can set the username to the one who saved it.
or in form load, write a logic to see if the form was not saved before and then query the username( by using internal field like "formstatue")
Hope this helps!

hey guys, I'm having trouble matching the colour of the image back ground (white) with the pre-set colour selection. is there a tool that can help me? thanks
Your description of the problem is not quite clear so I made certain assumptions. I hope I am rigtht. I believe you have a color patch such as this:
that you would like to place in an image area that has modeling in its white background. You do not want to lay in a flat color but rather to add a color and not lose the modeling or other background tone. The problem is, after making the selection, if you use Edit > Fill and set the Blending mode to Color, the white background remains white. The only colored background area may be an object's shadow or some similar area that is not pure white. (Image 2) It is an unsatisfactory result.
If that is an accurate description of the problem, consider this:
Image 1: The original image
Image 2: Edit > Fill with the Blending mode set to Color. White remains white
Image 3: Mode changed to Lab Color. Edit > Fill with the Blending Mode set to Color. Then return to RGB.
(I would not normally use this green as a replacement color but since it is a Tiffany clock, I chose a light version of Tiffany's trademark color.) -
Can I change the image, name & product description on the iTunes page?
Hi there,
I recently started a new podcast, Jazz Now! Seattle. When I first entered it I used a logo that has now been change. I have also reworked the title. And the description on the iTunes page has a "/" in it that shouldn't be there. You can see it all here:
http://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/jazz-now-seattle/id389101248
Can I change these things?
Thanks!
JasonAs you are using WordPress you will need to change things there: if you were to edit the feed itself it would simply be overwritten the next time you added something. If you change the title and remove the slash in the appropriate places in Wordpress and republish then iTunes will pick up the changes - possibly it may not do so until you add a new audio episode.
As to the image, simply point Wordpress to the new image (with a different name, don't just create a new image with the same name) and again this will update, though it will probably take some days. -
How can I save the images and movies on a external Disk from iphoto program, to protect the images when problems occur in the laptop,
Most Simple Back Up:
Drag the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to another Disk. This will make a copy on that disk.
Slightly more complex: Use an app that will do incremental back ups. This is a very good way to work. The first time you run the back up the app will make a complete copy of the Library. Thereafter it will update the back up with the changes you have made. That makes subsequent back ups much faster. Many of these apps also have scheduling capabilities: So set it up and it will do the back up automatically.
Example of such apps: Chronosync - but there are many others. Search on MacUpdate or the App Store
If you want to back up the Photos only:
Export them using the File -> Export command.
This User Tip
https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4921
has details of the options in the Export dialogue. -
Since upgrading to Yosemite on my iMac I am frequently getting "safari can't open the page (blank) because the server unexpectedly dropped the connection this sometimes occurs when the server is busy. wait and then try again". This is with both a WiFi and Ethernet connection. The server is working fine from other devices using WiFi onto it such as iPhones, iPads, MacBook (which is also on Yosemite) so don't believe its an issue with the server.
I am also noticing page load very slowly when this problem is not occurring.Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Step 1
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your documents or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this behavior; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
*Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
Step 2
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Please take this step regardless of the results of Step 1.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or earlier, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of Steps 1 and 2. -
Truly dumb question. How do I get PS to actually complete a command, eg straighten an horizon, and finalise the change. Even doing a "save as" with a new file name and reloading brings the image back, straightened, but with the skewed back ground frame still there. Is there a "apply change" or similiar command that I simply cannot see.
brings the image back, straightened, but with the skewed back ground frame
PSE did what you told it to do. Choose the Straighten and crop edges or fill edges options when you use the straighten tool if you want it to do more than just straighten the contents of the image. Many people prefer the plain straighten because they'd rather crop themselves than let PSE do it. -
Iphoto gives message "no images were selected" when hit print button. Yet the the images are clearly selected in the print window. I've printed hundreds of images without a problem before. Iphoto 6.0.6, MAC 10.5.8, Suggestions?
I have recently started having this problem in PSE8. The Adobe workaround
did work, but I don't fancy having to re register each time I use it.
What I have discovered is that it's nothing to do with the image metadata as it occurs before any image is opened.
It SEEMS to only occur if you use file/open with to open an image in the editor - IE start PSE with that command.
If you close elements down, and start it using programs/PSE/Elements (or your desktop shortcut) - the panorama feature magically works.
Each time I've opened the editor 'automatically' using image/open with, it seems to create the problem.
Hope this helps
