Importing project created in 8.48 to 8.5

Hi,
I wanted to know whether it is possible to import in 8.50 a project that was exported from 8.48? The project contains simple records, pages, components, portal registries etc. I am upgrading my tools version from 8.48, and want to be able to export a previously created project when I am done.
Thanks,
Vikas

I made a manual registry entry for TUXDIR under Oracle as "C:\oracle\tuxedo10gR3_VS2005". After this the installation runs fine(however there is a deviation from what has been mentioned in the install guide; contrary to what is given in the guide, I was never asked for ORACLE_HOME; which I am guessing that system now takes as ORACLE_HOME = "C:\oracle").
Installation guide says that ORACLE_HOME should be the
"The high level directory
where you converge the
installation for all Oracle
products."
This was mentioned for UNIX checklist. Although I am on Windows, I still decided to go with C:\Oracle, instead of "C:\oracle\product\10.2.0\db_1"
Hope all goes well!! ;-)

I just find out many images missing from my most important project for no reason and don´t know what to do!

I was checking my SDHC cards to see which ones had already been downloaded to my computer and sudenly after I inserted one of the cards an anouncement poped out telling me Aperture had trouble importing many files... since this card had already been downloaded in one of my projects and had been working on some of the pictures I did not mind and took the card out and formated it in my camera (as I said before all the pictures had been downloaded before!) and I went to work on Apperture. When I opened the project I was going to work in I found lots of pictures missing!
I don´t know how to recover this pictures or if it can be done!
This is my most important project to date!
I will greatly appreciate any help.

Hello Léonie,
I will try to be more specific:
I inserted my memory card and opened Aperture. I Pressed import and chose an existing project as a destination after choosing only the pictures I wanted to keep for imediate use (done this same precedure before). The importing procedure started and everything was "normal" but the "procesing" indicator (the spinning circle in the low left corner) never stoped (even the day after) so I quit Aperture,turned of my computer and took out the memory card.
Later I restarted my computer, oppened Aperture and saw all the pictures I wanted there, I even made versions and worked on some of them and everything was fine so far... The big problem came when I was cheking my memory cards -days later- to erase some of them for reuse and to make a back up copy of the full card in a diferent folder on the desktop of my computer (as I told before In Aperture only downloaded some pictures) and inserted the card that presented the continus "procesing" inconvinience: Somehow it created a link to Aperture and a notification poped telling me that some files where unable to download...
Since I had already seen and worked with the files in Aperture I thought the message was a mistake (the files had been imported ok before!) so I took out the card and reformated it in my camera (BIG MISTAKE!) and for my surprise when I wanted to work with this files and their versions and opened Aperture all of them were gone as If they had never been imported!
I opened the back up folder on my desktop just to find none of the files was saved there even though the downloading had run fine...
I tried to restore my Aperture library from Time Machine this morning but I think I made another BIG MISTAKE when answered to replace my library instead of keeping both... I found some files replaced, none of the diferent versions I had done, some files missing, some foulty tumbnails and God knows what else...
I´m very frustrated and disapointed and don´t know if there is anything I can still do to recover my files...
I don´t know if I should blame Apple´s Aperture or the card´s manufacturer for the origin of this problem but how can I trust my work to this combination of factors?
Thanks for your concern Léonie and have a good new year!

Problems using projects created in older versions of iMovie

I have a few projects created in older versions of iMovie, as far back as version 2 as well as more recent versions. Most of those projects are finished and I want to burn them to DVD again, but a couple of them could bear a little touch up editing. These projects are precious movies of our kids and hard to replace. Although I could probably find the original video, I put many hours of work into creating these projects.
In any case, when I open up an old project, I get a warning that goes something like this: "The project was saved with an older version of iMovie. Opening it in this version will cause it to be upgraded, which will make it unreadable by older versions. Are you sure you want to open it?"
I clicked okay, thinking "sure, I don't need to play it in an older version. I have iMovie HD."
However, now when I play my old iMovie project, there are a few problems. For example, one original movie's title was over black. When I play the movie, I get a completely white screen and no title. Also, in another movie, when viewing the movie in full screen, the transitions were replaced by a black screen (although the transitions were there when I viewed the movie in the iMovie window). Basically, there are problems cropping up here and there.
I need to do some more experimenting with all this to more fully understand how many problems there are. I don't know if the projects I opened in iMovie HD are now "broken" since I "upgraded" them with iMovie HD (when prompted to save the project's changes when quitting, I said NO, don't save changes).
I don't know if I should use older versions of iMovie to view and burn to DVD these projects. (I still have iMovie 2 and 3, but not 4 or 5. I don't know if older versions would even work on my Quad G5 with OS 10.4.7.) I also don't know if the older versions of iMovie would work with the current version of iDVD. How can I tell which version of iMovie was originally used for a given project? How can I find iMovie 4 or 5 if I need it?
I also wonder if projects I make with iMovie HD can be opened by future versions of iMovie, or if I should export them as Quicktime or something to be safe.
As I start to look into this further, I would appreciate any comments, suggestions, and experiences that you may be able to offer. I need to get these movies back to their former selves, when they looked good!

(when prompted to save the project's changes when

Excellent! That should leave you in pretty good shape. More below.
I don't know if I should use older versions of iMovie
to view and burn to DVD these projects. (I still have
iMovie 2 and 3, but not 4 or 5. I don't know if older
versions would even work on my Quad G5 with OS
10.4.7.)
The old versions of iMovie will run just fine in today's OSX. (But not iMovie 2 if it was the version that ran in Classic instead of Mac OSX.)
I run versions 2,3,4,5 and 6 today. Problems are minimal.
I also don't know if the older versions of
iMovie would work with the current version of iDVD.
That's not a problem unless your old iMovie projects contain chapters. If you tell iMovie 3 to create a new iDVD project, it might not work. You might not be able to transfer the chapter information to the newer version of iDVD.
(I just tested iMovie 3 to iDVD 6 and everything worked just fine.)
Except for iMovie 2, all old versions of iMovie stored a small QuickTime reference movie in the project folder. If you can't get an old version of iMovie to play nice with iDVD, drag that movie into the iDVD window.
How can I tell which version of iMovie was originally
used for a given project?
Drop the project file (discussed below) onto the TextEdit icon in the Dock. The version of iMovie that last saved the project is shown in the first few lines of the project file.
iMovie 5 used an entirely different project file format, the pList format. The top of the project file will look like this in TextEdit:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple Computer//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">
<plist version="1.0">
<dict>
How can I find iMovie 4 or
5 if I need it?
eBay?
I also wonder if projects I make with iMovie HD can
be opened by future versions of iMovie, or if I
should export them as Quicktime or something to be
safe.
We can never assume any new version of iMovie will be able to understand all features of a older project. It's always smart to make a backup.
There can be problems Apple can't anticipate. There may be third-party software used to create titles, transitions and special effects, plug-ins not installed with the new version or (more often, incompatible). The fonts installed on our Mac may have changed too. There's lots of features that can't be anticipated. I've never had a problem converting projects, but I never use third-party add-ons and special fonts.
As I start to look into this further, I would
appreciate any comments, suggestions, and experiences
that you may be able to offer. I need to get these
movies back to their former selves, when they looked
good!
My guess is it should be possible to restore the projects back to their original state.
Note that when imovie 5/6 converts an older project, it does NOT create a true iMovie HD project. Instead of creating an iMovie package, it retains the project FOLDER format. It places new iMovie HD elements inside the old project folder instead of converting it to a package.
When converting the project it changes the old project file name to "Sample Project Name.iMovie2Project", then creates a NEW project file with the plist format, having the name "Sample Project Name.iMovieProj". (There may NOT be the .iMovieProj extension.) When you save the new project, it adds a new project file "Sample Project Name.~iMovieProj". Note the tilde. The tilde file is a backup of the project file as it was when last saved in iMovie HD.
For our purposes, ignore the iMovie HD project files. We'll use the file ".iMovie2Project" to restore the project. (The extension is the same for all old versions of iMovie, not just iMovie 2.)
• In the Finder, Duplicate the entire project folder. Work on the copy.
• Open the project folder in the Finder.
• Discard the "Cache" folder, the "Shared Movies" folder, the "Audio Waveforms" folder and the two iMovie HD project files. (Some of those items may not yet exist yet because you didn't save the converted project.)
• Drop the "Sample Project Name.iMovie2Project" file onto the TextEdit icon in the Dock to get the version. Close it.
• Remove the ".iMovie2Project" extension, if you want.
• Launch that version of iMovie. Drop the "Sample Project Name.iMovie2Project" file icon on the iMovie icon in the Dock. With luck, the project should open normally. It's possible any third-party plug-ins used to create the project may not be available. If they aren't available, there might still be problems.
• Move your unconverted projects to folders that say which version of iMovie created them. To open them in the future, drop the project icon on the appropriate version of iMovie.
If all this fails, there is another way to do the editing you want. That is to import the project.mov file that's inside the converted project folder to a new iMovie HD project. That will deliver the video and audio of the original project as a single clip. Use that to re-edit the project. The name of the movie is "Sample Project Name.mov".
(The movie is a QuickTime reference movie, with no video and audio of its own, just pointers to the files in the Media folder. So long as the Media folder hasn't changed, it can play the original project as last saved.)
Importing the project.mov won't work with iMovie 2 projects, however, for iMovie 2 didn't store a project.mov file in the project folder.
Even if you end up importing the project.mov, you still may want to "unconvert" the project as described above.
Hope I haven't skipped a step. Let me know if you bump your head on something.

How to import project from Final cut pro 7 to X ?

how to import project from Final Cut Pro 7 to X ?

Can't import project from older version

I can't import project into a newer version of final cut as the project is whited out.and when i do get around it the error says:
The document "CurrentVersion.fcpevent" could not be opened Final cut pro cannot open files in the "final cut pro event" format.
I'm working in 10.0 and trying to open on another computer in 10.1.4
Any ideas would be great.
thanks

10.0 and 10.1.4 are very different, but in neither of the the procedure included "opening" such files.
In 10.0, you simply let the content be in the designated locations and the program would find it.
In 10.1 and beyond, projects and events reside in libraries, which are now like regular FCP X "documents" thare are opened and closed in the common way documents usually are.
To use older material, you need to update it. This is done by letting the stuff in its original locations, starting FCP X and doing File->Update Projects and Events... This creates a new library with your old material.

WebDynpro Problem - Importing Project from tutorials

I am trying to gothru the tutorial Accessing ABAP Functions in Web Dynpro (4).
I have downloaded and unzipped the zip file 4TutWD_FlightList.zip
When I try and Import a project,
It finds the Project TutWD_FlightList_init, I am able to select the project, but then I recieve a error
"Errors importing Projects
Error message: Invalid project description.
I have tried other project tutorials off SDN and get the same error.

Luciano,
I have tried the File>Import>Import Project from File System>
I am able to get the project created but none of the other structure is being built. The application,controller, views and window are all missing. I have tried to rebuild the project and I have tried to repair the project. No errors but no project structure either. I was a little confused by your suggestion to extract and then extract again. I have no files in the TutWD_FlightList_init.zip to extract again.
Also in the directory structure I have the files for the project such as...
project --> ProjectProperties.wdproperties
application --> FlightListApp.wdapplication
resultview--> ResultView.wdview , ResultView.wdview.xlf
controllers --> SearchView.wdcontroller
Any other suggestion would be appreciated,
Thanks,
Sarah

Importing project files into Premiere Elements 7

I have created a new project, imported several video clips and then created a video. It was only at the point of creating the video that I reliased that I had not created the project with the correct settings.
Although the video looked fine in the editing window, the final video had black bars at the sides, and above above and below the video, and fairly think black bars. I've tried exporting as different formats, and changing the aspect ratio, but this has not helped. I've attached a jpeg of what the video looks like in Quicktime.
Other video editing software I have used, has the ability to change the project settings after it has been created, and give a warning to the user about possible problems they may encounter by doing so.
This does not appear to be the case with Adobe Premiere Elements 7, and it is extremely frustrating!!
One thing which appears to be possible with Premiere Pro, and was also available on other editing software I have used, is the ability to import projects.
So... does anyone know if it is possible to import a Premiere Elements 7 project file into Premiere Elements 7? The aim here is to create a project with the correct settings, and then import the existing project file into the timeline.
I've tried hacking the project file, which has improved the video slightly, but still not what I was expecting.
Cheers
Paul

This problem should have been picked up by Adobe's test analyst during testing of the product.
I am sorry, but I am not following you on this. There are Presets to match many media types. I am not at all sure how Adobe could anticipate that a user would choose the wrong one.
As I said, PrPro CS4 will both allow you to Import your .PREL (with the caveats mentioned), and work on the Project with Sequence settings to match. Unfortunately, PrE is a much less sophisticated and expensive program, than is PrPro CS4.
I'd be happy to Import your file, in PrPro with the proper Presets, but the rub would be that PrE cannot Open .PRPROJ files, so you still could not edit it.
Sorry, but the first rule of any NLE is to establish Presets that match one's Assets. PrPro CS4 (not before that version) allows one to cover their mistakes a bit, but there is still some work getting the improperly set Sequence's material into a new, properly set Sequence.
If you have access to PrPro CS4, and can finish your Project there, that would be the best. Next would be to create a New Project with the proper Presets and chalk up the lost time as a learning experience.
Sorry ot bear the bad news.
Good luck,
Hunt

Bulk Import Projects along with Project Plan

Hi,
I am working on a requirement to bulk import Projects into Ms Project Server along with associated Project Plans. I have checked Solution Starter Bulk Create source code. However, the source code doesn't check-in project plans associated with
projects.
It just creates Projects. I am looking for approach and alternatives to implement this requirement. Any help in this regard will be appreciated.

Hi,
From experience you will be able to create Bulk project up to Project details only , for schedule level consider using PSI to Add tasks under the projects.

Exporting/Importing projects without Aperture?

Rather than wait for Aperture to export a project, why not just use finder to copy it?
I am doing that now.
I right clicked on my Aperture library, Show package contents, and browsed to a location of a folder of projects(14 GB worth)
Dragged that to a Lacie FW800 external disk.
Unplugged it from the G5 DP 2 Ghz, plugged it into the MBP, fired up Aperture, created a top level folder, selected the folder and then chose "Import Projects".
Browsed to the external drive, into the folder, selected all 9 projects and let it rip...
Next test will be to merely copy a project into the library.

Thanks for the info!
A green star for your efforts!
I am about to hit the road on our summer family vacation, but still have a bunch of projects I still need to triple-C ... cull, crop, correct and since I have proven the MBP is very capable, I decided to spend the 10 hours of drive time productive! So while my wife is driving I will be editing away and when we arrive at our hotel I should have 3-4 projects ready to export previews and upload!
BTW, I will be testing the only power inverter that Apple recommends, the Kensington Ultra Portable Power Inverter 150 (or so the Apple store claims:It's also the only product other than an Apple power adapter that you can use to charge MacBook and MacBook Pro notebooks.Now if I could just get wireless internet access while driving....

SWF in IE has Project Created by Adobe Captivate 7

When someone attempts to play an swf in Internet Explorer a small box appears with " Project Created by Adobe Captivate 7" and the video won't play
Anyone know why this might occur?

I have seen this error if AS2 content (Flash animations containing AS2 actionscript) was imported into Captivate 7. Check that you don't have any AS2 content in your project and also check that you didn't select an AS2 based preloader by mistake (only relevant if you have earlier versions of Captivate installed).

Does the projects created in Final Cut Express transfer over to the new Final Cut Pro software?

Does the video projects created in Final Cut Express transfer over to the new Final Cut Pro software?

You want to go from FCE to FCP-X?
You would need to do so in multiple steps.
1) You would need to be working in a very late version of FCE.
2) Open the FCE project in FCP-7.
3) In FCP-7, export an XML of the sequence you wish to get to FCP-X.
4) Purchase the software 7toX
http://assistedediting.intelligentassistance.com/7toX/
5) Import the XML into 7toX, export the FCP-X friendly file
6) Import the converted XML into FCP-X
7) Re-link all you media
It should be noted that when you use XML, not all the things you have done in your original sequence will make it through the final translation. There is more information about this at the 7toX page linked above.

Problem facing wile importing Projects

Hi,
While importing project to my workspace it is giving a message that
"Project Description is Missing " . But project description file is there in the folder .
But somehow it has been converted to zip file .If i will unzip it and then try to
import will it work ? What can be the appropriate solution i don't know .
Please help .
Another question is if it is showing a message "Invalid Project Description" ,
then what could be the solution .
Thanks .

Hi KI,
Before importing that project, first unzip ur file and put that unzipped folder into an workspace.
Then it works.....Otherwise if it does not work,may b some problem in workspace directory so try the following steps....
First Close your NWDS.
1) Go to NWDS installation directory take a backup of your projects from the workspace and delete the .metadata folder from the workspace.
2) Then open the NWDS, a new .metadata folder will be created and now you can try to IMPORT it will open without error
3)Sometimes when your metadata of the NWDS is corrupted then your NWDS will not function properly.
4)Restart ur machine,then its works properly

Can Premiere CS3 import project from Premiere 6.5

I see elsewhere that Premiere Elements cannot import project file from Premiere 6.5 and wondered if CS£ would. It would get me out of a hole if it could.

Sorry that I missed this thread first time around, and only just now noticed it. In Nick's (the OP) case, I think that Colin helped him with his problem.
As Nick, the OP, found PrElements will NOT Open a PrPro Project. As PE does not allow Import of a Project into another Project, that avenue is out. If one attempts to Open a PrPro Project in PE, they'll get an error message, along the lines of "Fool, this is a PrPro Project. You cannot Open it in PE. You must get PrPro. Fool." OK, maybe not that harsh, but close. Now, with some exceptions, PrPro WILL Open PE Projects. The biggest exceptions will be if Themes or Instant Movie were used. These do fritz up the works quite a bit. Still, a straight PE Project (PREL) will Open in PrPro fine, so long as the general versions of each program are close, or the PrPro version is newer.
As Colin points out, the only problem with going from an older version of a Project to a newer version of a Project is that "hole" that exists, because Pr was not ported for the Mac. This was from PrPro 1.0 (called 7.0 in some circles), PrPro 1.5 and PrPro 2.0. During that time, all Pr Projects were PC-only. Mac's, regardless of whether they are running CS3 (first version to be dual-platform, since Pr 6.5) or CS4. No Open, no Import.
The "trick" is to find a PC-user, who has at least CS3, or CS4, and have them Open the PrPro 1.0 through 2.0 Project. Once "converted" and Saved, then the Mac-user can Open it, provided that they have the same version of PrPro, or a later one. If the Mac-user has CS3, and the PC-user has CS4, this Open/Save will not work. If the PC-user has CS3 and the Mac-user CS4, it will work. This situation often shows Mac-users that PC-users are not such bad people after all, and that they'll usually put platform differences behind to help a fellow PrPro-user.
Above, I've outlined the steps and have also added some warnings, such as 3rd party hardware (like Matrox), Effects and Transitions. Heed those warnings carefully.
This will not help Nick now, but might help someone in the future. Remember, if you're on a Mac, and the Project was created in that time from PrPro 1.0 - 2.0, you WILL need a PC-friend to help you, and you will need to insure that your version of PrPro is at least equal to, or newer than, the PC-user's.
Good luck,
Hunt

Problem with importing and creating self signed SSL certificate

Mac Pro, 10.7.2 Server. Attempting to import or create a self signed certificate for use as ichat.domain.com to encrypt iChat service. Server is acutally called server.domain.com but has an alias of ichat.domain.com. I understand that this is probably not best practice but I would like to keep things this way since we have one server, run multiple services on it, but want to continue to connect to each service at SERVICE.domain.com. We have been using this type of mismatched certificate with success since 10.4 or so.
I am working through setup of 10.7 Server to replace our 10.6 server.
Tried upgrade of 10.6 to 10.7 installation. The installation made a mess of some services and our Open Directory, but did move the certificate over and allowed iChat service to function properly.
Clean install and setup of 10.7 Server. Exported self signed certificate, private key, and encryption password from 10.6 Server and functioning 10.7 upgraded Server.
On import or manual creation of certificate get the following error:
Error
Check your server's logs for more information. The error (code 5001) was: Expected SecKeychainItemImport to return a SecIdentityRef, but it did not
Log shows:
Dec 29 17:56:55 server servermgrd[498]: -[CertsRequestHandler(HelperAdditions) importP12Data:passphrase:error:]: importedItems = (
"<SecCertificate 0x7fcf6ed43c00 [0x7fff78d96f40]>"
I have tried importing and manually creating other certificates with a variety of names with success. I assume that there is something buried somewhere that is causing this particular one to be a problem. Other than manually removing any remnants of the certificate from /etc/certficates I do not have any ideas what to try. I am essentially ready to move this server to 10.7 except for this problem and would like to avoid a reinstall.
Suggestions?
