Indentation in this forum

Hey,
I'm really curious about some stuff one of them is how you guys can use identation in this forum. What is your secret for doing that?

Usage of [pre] and [/pre] around your code, as it explain in the FAQ (top right of the current page).

New Announcement in this forum

I just saw, that Jan created a new announcement on top of this forum. Good !
=>
If you have java code to display on the forum, surround it with tags and the output formatter will format the code for you with syntax highlighting and with indentation intact. See thread Re: Where can I find the JAR-File of the JDAPI-demo FormDumper ? for an example.
It works for PLSQL code as well.

Good thread! And good announcement, Jan.
Here are a few comments:
What is an "empty b tag"?
Here's how I do it: When I post a message that includes ampersand characters such as the &amp91; for the [, and then go back and edit the message, the board software screws up the ampersands. In order to preserve them, [u]every time I edit the message, I must add "amp;" after the ampersand, so it looks like this: &amp; If I don't, the [code] turns into an active tag. The best way to get it right is to copy my message into a simple editor, and make corrections there, then paste it back into this board's edit window. …so you can see why the "empty b tag" sounds good.
As for history of where we learned the methods: Francois learned of it <a href=http://forums.oracle.com/forums/message.jspa?messageID=960521#960521 target=_new>here.</a> And I learned about it from Andrew P Clarke (exactly 4 years ago) <a href=http://forums.oracle.com/forums/message.jspa?messageID=546435#546435 target=_new>here.</a>
And incidentally, that code formatting feature failed <a href=http://forums.oracle.com/forums/message.jspa?messageID=1387245#1387245 target=_new>for a time last year.</a>
Jan, I think you could clean up that announcement. You show the second code as /code\. But there should be no trailing backslash. And now that you know how to edit and maintain those square brackets, you could show it as [code]...[/code]
Thanks! [nobr]

Has anyone in this Forum had problems with installing and running Adobe apps on the new MacPro?

Has anyone in this Forum had problems with installing and running Adobe apps on the new MacPro?
I have been trying to install Photoshop CS6 & CC and Acrobat Pro XI on my Mac Pro (late 2013). I keep getting a 'configuration' error message and wondered if the problem was wide spread.
TIA,
Jerry

Thanks, Martin.
Good to hear someone has had success. The lack of it here is frustrating and depressing.
Thanks again,
Jerry

I am writing to this forum to ask for help in determining whether Aperture will satisfy my needs when I switch from Windows to MAC in the near future.

I am writing to this forum to ask for help in determining whether Aperture will satisfy my needs when I switch from Windows to MAC in the near future.
I am currently using Photoshop Elements 8 on Windows 7. After several years of use, I am self taught and adequately proficient for an amateur. What I didn't realize (until I started researching my upcoming migration on the Internet) is that I actually use PE8 for two functions: digital asset management and digital editing.
Regarding Digital Asset Management: My research leads me to understand that PE on MAC does not provide the same level of organizational capability that I am used to having on Windows, instead providing Adobe's Bridge which does not look very robust. Furthermore, iPhoto, which come on MAC will not support the hierarchical keyword tagging that I require to organize my library of photos. The two SW applications which I am thinking of switching to are either Aperture or Adobe's Lightroom. Frankly, I'm thinking that it would be smoother to stay within the Apple product line.
So the remaining question is whether Aperture will support my digital editing needs. The tweaks that I do to my photos are not very complex (no, I do not want to put people's heads on other animal bodies). But could someone who uses Aperture tell me whether It will allow me to do the following kinds of edits?:
- If I have a photo where someone's face is too shadowed, can I lighten just that person's face, and leave the rest of the photo as-is?
- if I have a photo where the background is cluttered (eg, 2 people in front of the Parthenon which is undergoing renovation), can I remove just the construction cranes?
- Can it splice together several separate photos to give a panoramic?
If, once I get Aperture, I find that it cannot enable the kinds of editing that I do, I would probably get PE11 in the future. However, if people in this forum tell me that Aperture will definitely not support the kinds of editing which I've described in the previous paragraph, I would prefer to get PE11 with my initial configuration (since someone will be helping me with my migration).
Thanks in advance for your consideration and help!

I am concerned, however, about using a non-Apple Digital Asset Manager in OSX. I would really like to avoid integration problems. Is using PE11 to import and catalog my digital photos likely to cause conflicts?
Thanks for any insight on this
Amy,
Not so much conflicts as maybe a little less seamless integration with Apple software and perhaps some third-party software providers in the Mac App Store where some programs build in direct access to iPhoto and Aperture libraries for getting images into those programs easily. Typically, there is a manual command to go to Finder (think Windows Explorer) to browse folders.
One caution to mention however, is that the organization you set-up in PE Organizer is unlikely to transfer over to either iPhoto or Aperture if you decide to change at some point.
The only real stumbling block that I see in your opening comment is that you want hierarchical keywording (Kirby or Léonie can go into the details on keywording limitations as I stay at one level). If you can work with the keywording schemes of either iPhoto or Aperture, then using PE for your external editor (either program supports setting an external editor) would probably be ideal since you know PE well. This is the idea with the Mac App Store version of PE (editor with no organizer).
Note - I use Photoshop CS6 (full version) with Aperture and it works really well. The only downside is that Aperture has to make either a TIFF or PSD file to send to an external editor so that the original file is protected by not sending it to the pixel editor. While TIFF or PSD files protect the integrity of the image information without degrading it, they are typically much larger file sizes on disk than either RAW or JPEG files. Therefore, your library size (iPhoto or Aperture) will balloon quite a bit if you send a lot of files to external editors.
One other possibility for an external editor would be a program called Pixelmator. It is pretty similar to early versions of Photoshop, but built for Mac. Other than the panoramics you want, it will do most pixel editing that PE can do. It is not an organizer, so it is built to go with either iPhoto or Aperture. It does have differences in how you complete certain procedures, so there is bit of a learning curve when you are used to doing it the Adobe way.

Elements 12 will not run. I am using windows 7, all updates have been made. When I try to open it up, it loads at first, then closes, and will not open up again. I need help with this, as I have not found a single answer in this forum that works.

As stated, I just downloaded elements 12. Every time i open it up, it gets to the organizer home screen, then shuts down. After this, it will not reopen. I have made all the updates to my windows 7, and I have searched this forum and have yet to find an proper solution to this issue, and by the looks I am not the only person with this issue. Anyone's help would be greatly appreciated.

My post has been viewed 24 times, and yet have had no answers. I have always like adobe products, however if this is the type of support they offer, I will never purchase another product of theirs. The issue I am having is the same issue many others have had, and yet no answer. Poor customer service!

I lost my contacts. First it would not open Facebook or my iMessage . So I turn off phone and turned it back on. Then all contacts were gone. That is not cool. I don't want to sync . I also read on this forum iPhone is not a storage device .???

I Lost my contacts . I don't sync. Why should I have too? Very frustrating. I read on this forum iPhone was designed to work with computer. Then I guess this phone is not for me.
My fb and my iMessage would not open. So I turned of my phone and turned it back on. Bang ! They were gone. Funny how I never have problems with my itouch.

Not the case at all whilst there are harmonized minimum standards governing guarantees, warrantees remain national as these vary (Add to) minimum legal protection.

I just downloaded Maverick on my Macbook Pro from 2011. When I try to open iPhoto, it says that I have an old version that doesn't work with Maverick. None of the solutions stated on this forum work for me, because there are no options displayed.

After downloading Maverick on the MacBook Pro that I bought in 2011, I am unable to open iPhoto. The message says "You can't use this version of the application "iPhoto" with this version of OS X. You have "iPhoto" 9.2.3" What??? That is ridiculous. Why doesn't Maverick download everything? I've tried the "fixes" I found on this forum, but none of them work for me, because there is no workaround via the library. I can't access the library.

I have an old iPhoto version and it still works with Mavericks, the version before yours, that is puzzling.

How can I use a username to log in to this forum.

The size of the username box in this forum is too short to see my full email address and as a result I often have to try a few times because I cant see if I make a typo. This is rather annoying because you can see if you perhaps made the mistake in the password because all you see is a row of dots.
Is there any way I can use a shortened username? I seem to remember I entered one originally but it has never worked

Ted,
There is a good, active forum for Forum Comments. Adobe-Admin (John), can help you with all sorts of issues with Log-in, and accessing the forums. I would post there with the issues and your needs, and wait a bit for John to get to the post. He's good, fairly quick, and works hard to help - but he IS overworked, so you may have to be patient.
Good luck,
Hunt

From reading this forum and my own it experance the HP "eprint" email server is flawed!

Having read on this forum and from my own experience only a limited number of email providers email addreses will be accepted by the eprint email address it certainly does not accept emails from hotmail.com and hotmail.co.uk they bounce almost before they are sent!!!
So own up HP I bought in to your sales BS and there certainly wasn't any caveats saying that you eprint system does it did not work with certain email providers.
I note that someone calling himself an interested employee of HP has been suggesting that its the providers fault, well I have been using hotmail for donkeys years and the only time my emails have bounced is when I have incorrectly entered the wrong send address configuration or the attachments were too large!
I am getting on, but for the life of me I cannot found any eprint support contact email address on their web page, is there one? or is HP hoping that their customers will sort out their problems for them?
For the record I can see my printer on line via the eprint web site and all the reports are correct so its not a fault at my end .
So HP if you actually monitor this forum get your act together and give us what your sales blurb said it would!

For those who are experiencing ongoing issues with their web services, you can attempt to try the following steps that may
help resolve your problems.
1.) Completely shut down your printer and restart it
2.) If you have prints that have not printed, log into ePrint Center (or create an account if you do not have one) and
then look for your printer status. If printer status is green but you still have pending jobs, delete the pending jobs one at
a time (Starting with the oldest first). There may be a print job stuck in the queue that further restricts other jobs from
completing.
a. If option 1 or 2 above still doesn’t work, removing web services and re-adding web services will cause the printer to
reattach to the cloud.
b. Please note that if you attempt option 3, you will get a new eprint email address (and lose your custom one with no
ability to get it back) furthermore, you will need to re-add your printer back to your ePC account.

Use Secure HTTPS throughout this Forum and the Meteor Website

This is not a "Bright Idea", this is a security flaw with the setup of this forum. When registering to use this forum you are asked for these personal sensitive pieces of information: - Password- Email Address- Mobile Number- CUSTOMER SERVICE PIN!- Age Confirmation This forum does not use secure HTTPS TLS anywhere, so when you register with this form, and when you login you are sending this information is clear plain text over the Web. This is extremely insecure especially considering (A) It's a known fact most typical users will use the same account password on multiple sites, so one should assume a user registering for this forum will use the same password that they use for the main MyMeteor account. (B) The Customer Service PIN is one of the pieces of information used when interacting with Meteor either by phone, chat, email, forum or post as a way to verify a persons credentials and valid identity. So given (A) & (B) if a users password and/or PIN are intercepted on an insecure internet connection, the person gaining access to these credentials could use it to impersonate the customer when communicating with Meteor. The implications are obvious. When an attacker wants to gain access to customer details they will look for the weekest access link. This forum is one of the weekest access links and if comporimised or if user details are intercepted it gives the attacker all the information they need. This forum may be powered by the Lithium service, but it is Meteor's Technical team's responsibilty to setup and secure this forum adequetly. At the moment they have not done this. They are leaving customers at risk of identity theft and are failing in their obligations under Data Protection laws. This needs to be addressed immediatly. On a wider issue it is now considered good practice for public serving websites to use TLS throughout their website and not just for registration and login pages. Contrary to misconception using TLS throughout your site will not greatly reduce the speed or performance of the site if the sys admins have used correct modern server configurations, optimisations and TLS implementation. The major browsers are now blocking out non-secure elements on secure web pages and even Google is going to start using TLS as a signal for traffic ranking. So websites using TLS throughout their site will potentially get better search rankings on Google than those without. I would ask the Meteor Sys admins to at the very least seurce this forum with TLS and then role out TLS across their entire meteor.ie web properties and follow best practise.

I have found that there is an SSL certificate installed on the server to cover the forums.meteor.ie domain, however it is not being enforced. Whilst not a perfect solution, for those using the EFF HTTPS Everywhere browser extension, I have written a ruleset that will force the browser to load https://forums.meteor.ie. I have submitted this ruleset to the EFF but you can also add the ruleset yourself with this following these directions, using this code: <ruleset name="Meteor.ie Community Forum">
<target host="forums.meteor.ie"/>
<rule from="^http://(www\.)?forums\.meteor\.ie/" to="https://forums.meteor.ie/"/>
</ruleset> Still waiting on an official response from Meteor.

"You do not have permission to post in this forum"

I have another account that cannot do anything much at all, and I would like to get it fixed without a five day wait for a Genius Bar appointment, then a 1 hour bus trip each way with an "I can't help with that" in the middle.
The account has been broken for over a year. This is what happens:
I can submit a question to the community.
I can open any postings that show as matches.
If there are no matches and I get thrown to the list of communities, then I can't view or post to any of them. I see the product names and icons (iPad, for example, but the list of related communities on the right is missing for all products. Which seems unfair because I own most of them.
You do not have permission to post to this forum
It appears you are not allowed to view what you requested. You might contact your administrator yadda yadda.
I have posted about this before:
https://discussions.apple.com/message/17393255#17393255
with no real answer (a threat of possible help, if you like, but with no resultant benefit.)
My question is - how does one get help with the help forums? I have phoned Apple's help desk and they said they could not do anything.
I would really like to get my primary account working - it connects to the right email address, it all set up and comfortable - and it does not use my name and location as an alias (who's idea was that? Fire that person!)
If you know of any court of appeal, help desk support forum support line, 21-step program or anything else that might help, please tell me. This has gone on long enough.
I tried to do something about this from the other account but to get support for the support communities you have to be able to post to them.
"That's some catch, that Catch-22"
"It's the best there is."
Thanks in advance for your help.

Seventy-one - To my knowledge, I have been a model citizen. And not impertinent of you at all - a very reasonable question. All words have been 1-3 or 5+ letters long, I certainly have not received any communication (that I have been able to find) that indicates a transgression. And there is another question - which castle, and are you saving for the deposit?
Bleach - other user name is "Ploughguy". But I was more after a means of contacting those with influence myself. Most fora like this have a contactable moderator or administrator. I am rather amazed that one needs the intercession of the saints. Such as St Roger...
Roger - This situation. The "can't look-can't post" situation. It has been (not) happening for some time.
I previously raised the issue here .
BTW, I created yet another ID because I was not careful enough when I set up the second ID and it defaulted to "NameFromSuburb". This is OK for johnfromnewyork but a huge privacy risk if you are ranulffromlittlestorpingintheswuff - an unusual name in a small place. I do not know how that default got through the peer review. Basically it says "ranulf has the good taste to own an Apple something which is portable and fenceable, and he lives not far from here". I have suggested to the privacy people that it is a very bad idea. And yes, I realise my alias is already out there. I have asked the privacy people to blow it away.

Uploading a file in this forum - anybody ever succeed at that?

I tried uploading a file, and it didn't say it worked, but didn't say it didn't work either (and since I made a few attempts which didn't work, and it said so, I assumed when it didn't say it didn't work, that it did work).
Filename/upload-title: "ADL Compensations (2012).zip"
So, did it work? If so, how would I refer others to the uploaded file (and where would I find said file m'self).
If it didn't work, then:
* why didn't it say so.
* why didn't it work.
Anybody?
Link:
Page:
And yes I did select the file to upload, even though not shown here, and filled out the rest of the info..
When I clicked the submit button, it kinda scrolled me to the top of the page again, but there was no "you forgot to do this.." message anywhere.
(if you neglect a required field, it will say: "you need to fill out this field..")

Hi Rob,
because of your thread from above I sent a file called "ForumTestFile.txt" into this forum "Photoshop Lightroom". Till now I don't know where it has landed.
Hans-Günter

This is my first post. I would like to thank you all for all of the information you have posted on this forum. It has been most helpful to a Newbee. I have a MBP17 w/trackpad and click bar from '08. I need a bigger HD, how big can I go? THX

This is my first post, but I have been following this forum for a while and you have all been very helpful in my MacEducation. I have a MBP17 10.6.8 w/6GB ram from '08. I need to upgrade my HD from 200GB. I would like to go as big as I can and would appreciate any experiance you've had. Could I go 750GB or 500 GB @ 7200 rpm. Should I upgrade to Lion before I swap the drive out? Thanks, Johnny

Hi Johnny,
Yes you can do the 750 or 500, 5400 or 7200. Just make sure it is 2.5" SATA and 12.5mm high or less (there is at least one HD out there that is 15mm high and will not work).
Lion: I don't know that it matters much either way, just don't do them at the same time. That way, if there are issues, you have a much better chance of troubleshooting one major change instead of two.
