Import *.dba and *.aba file help

Have a Zire 21 handheld, using Windows XP Pro.  Saved and exported datebook and address info, exported all in range.  Uninstalled and reinstalled software, but will not allow me to re-import the data.  Did notice that after reinstalling, what is now "datebook" was "calendar", and "address" was "contacts".  When trying to import the datebook *.dba file in, a message pops up that states it, "is not a Date Book file, or the file is corrupt".  Getting the same message when trying to import the address *.aba file.  HELP!

Are you still getting this error message?  It is possible that the backup files really are currupted.

Alan - I'm still trying to solve this problem.  Whatever happened during the uninstall/reinstall has also had the effect of deleting some of my Palm information and still deletes any newly entered info whenever I have to restart the PC.  Any suggestions?
What is the setting of the conduits?  They should be set to synchronize.  If you are trying to force data onto your Palm, they setting should be Desktop overwrites Handheld.  Once the data is loaded, don't forget to set the conduit back to Synchronize.

  • Importing PDF and Photoshop files since using Windows 7 64bit

    Hi,
    I recently upgraded (?) to Windows 7 64bit.  I have notices when importing PDF and photoshop files into the InDesign document, the resolution of the graphics are off and the lines are choppy.  Even the fonts are illegible.  What happened?  Are there some settings that I need to into and tweek to bring everything back into alignment and focus?  (If those are the correct words.)  When I view the PDF files in windows, they are normal.  It is only when imported into InDesign that they are distorted.
    Thank you for any help.
    Clark

    I run Maximized, so the window fills the available space (you can set the shortcut properties to open that way so you don't have to do it each time), or you could resize the window from the top, then grabe the title bar and drag it upward on the screen. Windows should remember the size and position, but it may not, being Windows, after all.

  • Import .pdf and ai file in indesign cc

    Hi,
    I'd like to know if there's a way to import pdf and ai files in indesign cc 2014?
    Thanks

    If you're asking how to use a PDF or ai as a graphic in InDesign, File>Place is what you want. If you're asking how to manipulate the elements of a PDF or ai after it has been placed in InDesign, that's not how it works, although you can turn layers on or off in a placed ai file if you go to Object>Object Layer Options.

  • HT4622 How to import .band and .mid files into GarageBand for iOS

    Using GarageBand for MacOS X, I have no difficulty importing and playing .mid (MIDI) files.  Indeed, I can even rename .kar (Karaoke) files to .mid, import them into GarageBand for MacOS X and see the lyrics along with the score.  Using File Sharing for iOS apps in iTunes.app, I have tried to import .mid and .band files (made from .mid files with GarageBand for MacOS X) using this mechanism.  I get no errors but it doesn't seem to work.  That is, neither the .band file nor the .mid file are accessible from within GarageBand for iOS as far as I can tell.  What should I be doing instead?

    As I understand it GarageBand for iOS .band projects can be imported to GarageBand for OS X, but the reverse isn't true. GarageBand for iOS does not import midi files.
    The File Sharing section of iTunes doesn't validate the files you put into it, but if the app doesn't like the structure of the file it will just ignore it.

  • Importing .MOD and .MOI files to iMovie - from JVC EverioS GZ-MS100

    I'm desperate in finding a solution on the problems I have with importing .MOI and .MOD files to iMovie from a JVC EverioS GZ-MS100.
    I have looked up all advices I can, also on this forum... But nothing seems to work for me at all!
    PLEASE someone tell me asap how I can get my videos to iMovie so I can start editing my videos...
    Thank you so much in advance!!
    I have iMovie '09 version 8.0.6 (821).

    The Zi6 is not on the compatibilty list however I based my knowledge on this review at macworld.com
    http://www.macworld.com/article/135948/2008/10/kodakzi6.html
    "To copy your captured content to the Mac, flip out the USB connector, switch on the camera, and jack it into a free USB 2.0 port. If you have the latest version of iPhoto, it launches and offers to import the separate video and image files. If you don’t have the most recent version of iPhoto, you’re welcome to import files into iMovie ‘08 with the File: Import Movie command, or into iMovie HD via the File: Import command. Each command produces an Import navigation window, where you can locate the movies on the attached camera (within the DCIM folder).
    The Zi6’s movies are encoded in the H.264 format; as a result, there’s no need to install another codec to use them as you would for movies recorded with the Flip cameras, because H.264 is natively supported by QuickTime (and therefore iMovie and Final Cut Pro). Audio is recorded in the AAC format at 48 Kbps."
    So this suggests iMovie 08 will accept the file format the Zi6 porduces. I will attempt file conversion before I loose iMovie 06 though.

  • Importing sf and sd2f files?

    How do i import sf2 and sd2f files into GB2?
    Also is there a good website for learning about different file types?

    You can find sound fonts here:
    http://www.sf2midi.com/index.php
    http://www.hammersound.net/
    http://www.fox-gieg.com/rkhive/synth.html
    After you download them put them in the following path:
    HD/User/Your Home/Library/Audio/Sounds/Banks.
    Thats were I put mine SoundFonts after I DL them.
    I keep the "Banks" folder in the left side of the finder window (don't know the name of that area) so I can just drop my font into it without having to open all those folders everytime. I keep the "Components folder there also for the same reason.

  • Computer turns off when importing CDs and converting files! HELP!

    Hi everyone,
    I'm having trouble importing music from CDs and converting files on my computer. The computer just turns off when I do these things and I'm really stuck as to why. Can anyone help?

    I just started having the same problem. I was able to import songs from 5 cds with no problem, but when I tried a few more my mac started shutting down about halfway through the import of the song. It doesn't matter how many songs I choose to import, it happens on the first one everytime. Did you find a fix for this?

  • NOT ABLE TO IMPORT MUSIC AND VIDEO FILES FROM IPOD TO COMPUTER/ITUNES LIBRARY !!!!

    Hi.... I am having IPod Nano 5th Generation. I can access music and video files (that are stored in Ipod memory) in Ipod. But when I connect the ipod to computer, I am not able to access/import these music and video files through computer. Also, I am not able to see any folders like DCIM, Contacts, etc... in the memory of IPod. Can any body help me out... ?

    Search it up on google.com.  There's a lot of apps that will help you do this.  Check out this one:

    You can also check out this video:

    I tried the import software (trial version) and it was fine but I didn't want to pay for software.  You can authorize up to 5 computers in the house to access your iTunes music and other iTunes purchases. Open iTunes, you can go under Store and select Authoize this computer.
    Good luck!

  • Importing jpg and CR files from HD

    I have just started using Lightroom 4.4. In importing jpg or CR files from my HD,  I get "Preview unavailable for this file", although: 1) the jpg files were generated by using Photoshop CS4, 2) these photos can be "seen"  by Photoshop elements 11 and iPhoto. Any help?
    Mike

    It is not a work around - it is a better workflow - shooting RAW plus JPEG and then deleting the JPEGs make no sense and have no value - shoot what you want and when you shoot RAW Photos makes a JPEG which you can access or export should you need it - shooting both is a waste of time, SD card space and disk space
    to delete the JPEGs you can make a smart album with the criteria Photo is JPEG and delete the JPEGs by selecting a photo or photos there and holding down the command and motions keys and pressing delete

  • Trouble Importing MP4 and M4V files

    Hi, I am creating iMovies and importing them into YouTube as MP4 and M4v files. All was fine until a week ago, and now all MP4 & M4V files are failing to load in YouTube. I have had no luck on the YouTube discussion forum. Has anyone had this problem and offer a solution? I have tried the multi-loader to no avail. My videos are all to spec with YouTube ie less that 10 min and under 1 GB. Thanks for your help.

    Any help would be much appreciated. thanks!

  • Importing .cpi and .mts files into iMovie

    A friend provided me hundreds of .cpi and .mts files of footage he shot on a Canon Vixia camcorder. The files are on a DVD disc. How do I import them into iMovie 09?

    You may have already resolved this issue, but I found out some great information today from Sony directly.  I was having the same problem, and I was convinced iMovie (i'm using iMovie 09) couldn't import MTS files.  I was wrong iMovie does it very easily.  The problem iMovie has is when you connect your camera, most people click the "video camera" icon so they can see the videos on their camera they wish to import.  What I found is that if you haven't cleared off your video camera in some time, and have over 10 gigs of video on the camera, iMovie has a real hard time, because it has to search the camera and bring up the clips in that lower window pane and often times it will basically time-out, and if you click that camera again the iSight camera launches.
    What I did was go thru the clips on my video camera that I could delete (actually watched them on the camera itself), this can be time consuming.  But, once I cleared down the content on my camera under 10 gigs, iMovie saw the information quickly.  Here's another thing I did, that also may help...instead of clicking on that little camcorder icon, use FILE, Import from Camera at the top menu bar instead.  When I did this, it started looking for my attached video camera.  From now on I will clear off my video camera more frequently so that iMovie doesn't bog down looking for possible imporatable videos on the camera.  Recommendation from Sony was keep it under 10 gigs.
    Hope this helps.
    Tim
    P.S.  There is no truth to the idea that iMovie does not import MTS files.  My Sony HD Handycam takes all MTS files and iMovie has no problem with them at all.

  • When I import TIF and JPG files with same metadata, only the TIF files are imported. How can I change that?

    I have imported and renamed TIF and JPG files with the same metadata re recording date and time. Only the TIF files are imported, the JPG files remain unimproved. Thus I have in the Finder e. g. 13 image files in the same folder in which Lightroom only finds 10 files. Any ideas for resolution welcome!
    Thanks

    Turn off the option Preferences > General > Treat JPEG Files Next To Raw Files As Separate Photos.  Then do an import again.  It appears that, in this instance, LR considers a TIFF to be a "raw" file.
