Info resets for files that were converted from MKV

I recently converted some files mkv (and *** subtitle files) to mp4 (using Videora). They play in Quicktime and are added to iTunes without problem. When I hit "get info" I can change the settings easily and the video now pops up in the correct tv show and season and all, but the artwork immediately reverts to the default (which is a screen capture iTunes auto-creates). If I go into get info again the name also resets to what it was when I added the file (although everything on the video tab holds, just not the info tab and artwork). Also, I can see in "%itunes-music-folder%\movies" (for me f:\music\movies) the file names aren't changing which is probably why it resets. Files I converted from avi take info updates correctly (get info holds and filename on the hdd changes). Any ideas?

the subtitle file is ".***" file type (a-s-s) it seems the apple forums auto-mask curse words.

HT4796 How can I take the files that were migrated from my PC to my Mac and add all those files to my current user instead of having 2 users?

How can I take the files that were migrated from my PC to my Mac and add all those files to my current user instead of having 2 users? Having to log out just to sign in on a different user to access the files is absurd.
Do I make all the files sharable to all the NOW users on the mac then just delete the files? Or can i erase my account that I made when starting up my new mac and then just use the one with the transferred files?
I just dont want to have to og in and out of 2 different accounts .. Help please.

Sorry. /Users is a folder path. It would be similar to C:\Users (if that exists on Windows).
So, in the Finder, select Computer from the Go menu.
You'll see Macintosh HD, double-click that to open it.
In there you'll see several folders. One is Users. That is where all the user Home folders exist. Select the other account's home folder and go to step 3.
If you have any more confusion, please stop and ask. We'll get there.
If you feel more comfortable, you can just log into that other account and move the files into /Users/Shared.
Then, log into the account you wish to use and copy the files from the Shared folder and paste them into your Home folder, wherever they belong, Documents, Music, Pictures, etc. That just takes a little more work. Transferring them into Shared, and then copying into your home sets the permissions on the files so that you won't have a problem accessing them later. The steps I provided just prevent you from having to do the double move, since you are not going to use the old account once you are done.
Quick unix shorthand. If someone gives you a file path that begins with a /, that means the root of the hard drive, ie Macintosh HD (if you haven't renamed it). The path separator in unix is /, not \.
A path that starts with ~/ means your Home folder, the one inside /Users named with your account name.

HT4796 i can not locate the files that were migrated from my PC to my Mac?

I cannot locate the files that I migrated from my PC to my Mac?

Migration Assistant creates a new user with the migrated files from your PC, so you have to log in this user. To access to it, go to  > Log Out, and you will see a second user, so choose it and you will access to your migrated files from your PC

Adding transitions to files that were imported from imovie 8

I am trying to edit some files from DVDs that were ripped using handbrake. Since I couldn't import them directly to FCE4, I put them in imovie8, exported them and then imported them into Final Cut. For some reason, I am unable to add transitions between two clips. Any ideas what could be causing this, and how the issue can be fixed?
Thanks

Ghosts appear on prints from jpeg files which were converted from psd version sets

PSE 10 with Windows 7. I saved some photo files in version sets when editing them for later printing into a book. When I was ready to print, I converted them into jpegs for arranging them on the page with LightRoom and then later printing at a local photo lab. When I got the book back, there was significant "ghosting" below the main image for some of the files. Some of the ghosts had to have been previous files from the psd version sets, and others came from other sources. Any idea what would cause that? Thanks for any help you can offer. Kjay27

Printed RAW files will always look unsaturated or "dull" until processed and saved as a jpeg or tiff files. Think of RAW/NEF as a means of preserving ALL the available information to later "develop" a final image to be saved as tiff or jpeg for publication. Shooting in Large Fine JPEG mode will yield great results for print and web publishing, and also leave more room on your memory card and computer drive to make more great photos

No Audio Playback in Music Videos that were converted from MPEG to MPEG-4

Friends -
I am using iTunes as the default player for all types of audio files. I have not downloaded any supplemental video or audio Codec files (yet). Windows Media Player (11.0.6001.7000) is my default player for videos. When I recently converted a batch of old music videos from MPEG format to MPEG-4 format, I lost the audio playback on the converted files when trying to play back using iTunes. Audio works fine on the original MPEG files from iTunes. After syncing my Video iPod, the video playback is fine on the MPEG-4 files, but there is still no audio. Any suggestions?

Try using MPEG Streamclip to convert the videos; more information on this issue is available in this article.

The difference of jar files that were generated from wsdl

hello there:
I used maven's jaxws plugin to generate jar files from two wsdl links. The links are pretty much the same except for one line:
<wsdlsoap:address location="http://<env>.XXXXXX"the <env> indicate the environment is a prod or uat. Other than that, the wsdl is the same.
The question is, can the jars generated from respective wsdl be used interchangably? I did notice there a few bytes different from the resultant two jars, and the test shows they CAN'T be used interchangably.
Can anyone explain why?
Thanks,
Johnny

You may use them interchangeably if the code that uses the classes in the jar(s) does not depend on the default address of the web service but instead always passes the URL during initialization of such stub classes.

Is there a way to create favourites in a chm file that was converted from a WebHelp file?

I am using RH 11. We generally output our help projects to WebHelp, but we still have a few .chm outputs.
Marketing has provided us with a new branding for our Help projects. We implemented the new skin for the WebHelp and then applied this skin to the chm outputs.
This works really well. The only issue is that in the new chm output, we no longer have access to the Favourites functionality.
Does anyone know how to add this functionality or a workaround to create favourites in this new chm output?
Any help would be much appreciated.
Cheers,
Mack

You would need to add favorites to the WebHelp output prior to creating a CHM. You would need something along the lines of: http://www.wvanweelden.eu/product/favorites-widget-webhelp
But since it's in a CHM, I'm not sure whether you will be able to save anything from the webhelp output between sessions.
Kind regards,
Willam

After installing the latest of iTunes the original files for almost 300 songs cannot be found for syncing to my iPod. The files are songs that were bought from iTunes, and copied into iTunes from CDs.

After installing the latest of iTunes the original files for almost 300 songs cannot be found for syncing to my iPod. The files are songs that were bought from iTunes, and copied into iTunes from CDs.

Apparently, security programs like Macafee and Norton view Itunes updates as new programs and block then from access. If you add Itunes to the list of exemptions, it solves the problem.

My desktop App for Story has malfunctioned and I am no longer able to access the files that were on it, how do I save those documents and reinstall the app?

I have a Story + desktop app for Adobe on my hard drive and it was supposed to sync up to my online app (or cloud) however it never did and now I cannot access my desktop app, nor the important files that were on it.
__I.E. when I try to press the [Sign In] button, nothing happens.
So I figured to find those files elsewhere, copy them somewhere safe then try re installing the app again. However, I cannot find those files anywhere on my hard drive.

Adobe Story stores its local files on the following location:
On Windows,
1. Open Windows Explorer and type '%appdata%' in the address bar
2. Make a copy of 'com.adobe.AdobeStory.<some-number>' folder. This folder contains Story's local data.
On Mac,
1. Open Finder.
2. From 'Go' Menu, open 'Go to folder'
3. Type '~/Library/Preferences' and hit enter
4. Make a copy of 'com.adobe.AdobeStory.<some-number>' folder. This folder contains Story's local data.

When I open the "Save Page As" window, the drop-down box for the file name shows files that were saved long ago. This is not cleared by any "clear history" function that I can find. How do I clear this?

Hello.
I believe this is a Windows related issue, since it's the windows Save File manager we're talking about here (right?). You should contact Microsoft for help on that one, I believe. You'd expect to be able to delete the entries by simply tapping ''Delete'' on your keyboard when they are focused (that's how it goes for deleting specific form autocomplete entries in Firefox), but I haven't tried that.
I'm sorry I can't be of more help.

I replaced the original hdd in my early 2008 iMac. I can't move my files that were backed up with Time Machine to my new hdd using Migration Assistant. When prompted to select the "from drive", the ext. hhd does not appears as a selection. Please help!!

I'd recommend staring over, Pondini has created an excellent guide on how to use Setup Assistant. I'd recommend begin reading Pondini Setup Assistant tips where he talks about "Second Chance." Assuming your Time Machine backup is sound the restore should be very smooth.

ITunes cannot get CD track names for CDs that were not imported with iTunes

I have a number of WAV files and MP3 files that already have album information. I would like to erase that information and have it replaced using the "Get CD Track Names" function, but keep receiving an error message of "iTunes cannot get CD track names for CDs that were not imported with iTunes." Is there some way to strip the previous information and replace it with information that iTunes receives with the "Get CD Track Names" function?

Programs like itunes use characteristics of the CD such as track duration and sequence to identify CDs. Potentially this could be modified in a very small manner (maybe even a millisecond) in converting to a different format so maybe itunes doesn't even want to try getting the information for other formats.
You can certainly replace whatever information you wish by "get info" on a single or multiple selection of files and entering the data by hand.

I can no longer print PDF files that were scanned with the very same MX479 on Windows XP, SP3

I can no longer print PDF files that were scanned with the very same MX479 All-in-One.
I have an (obsolete) Windows XP, SP3 computer. Obviously, no updates from Microsoft
have occurred that might have impacted my Canon Pixma MX479.
When I attempt to send 1 or more pages from a PDF file to the printer, I don't even get the
Canon PIXMA popup that would allow me to cancel the print job.
Yet the Print Queue icon appears in the lower right corner of my monitor.
If I view the Print Queue, the print queue shows "spooling" and does nothing more.
If I attempt to CANCEL the print job in the Print Queue, it simply changes to "deleting -
spooling".
I cannot cancel the print job that shows NOT RESPONDING via Task Manager, either.
In fact, the only way the Print Queue icon disappears is if I totally reboot my computer!
"Luckily", I can still print e-mails, Word documents, and even my downloaded PDF of my
bank statement.
So, I was thinking that it was *only* PIXMA'S OWN SCANNED PDFS that could not be
printed ON THE SAME PIXMA 479.
However, I have since realized that I also cannot print USPS Signature Proof of Delivery
PDFs that I received from USPS via e-mail.
So why can I print *some* PDF files, but not *all* PDF files, like I previously could do?
THESE SCANS ARE OF LEGAL DOCUMENTS, SO I WILL LIKELY HAVE TO E-MAIL
THE REQUISITE, PREVIOUSLY SCANNED PDFS TO FEDEX TO PAY FOR *THEM*
TO PRINT THEM.
NOTE: I *have* tried turning the PIXMA off, unplugging it, rebooting the computer, plugging
the PIXM in and restarting the PIXMA - still no ability to print PIXMA-scanned PDFs.
And, I find it very strange that e-mails, Word documents, and some other PDFs print with
no problem "around" "NOT RESPONDING" PIXMA print jobs.
I have owned Canon printers for years, including the MX420, and the MX340.

There may be some security issues related to the USPS PDFs.

I can't help with the scan/print problem. You seem to have done everything I would try.
I don't know if maybe using a registry cleaner would help.

Mac mini Server 10.6 unable to search for files on the server from desktop.

I'm running Mac mini Server 10.6 with 15 various Apple Mac desktops 10.4 / 10.6. The problem i'm having is that i'm unable to search for files on the server from any of the desktops. I have fixed permissions and rebooted. I can perfomr a search though command - F and spotlight from the server.
Anyone have any ideas?

I have a Mac mini server with Mac osx 10.6.8 installed --- I have a website {UNDER CONSTRUCTION} installed on it with a REGISTERED DOMAIN NAME belizeansworldwide.com -->[DNS service w/GoDaddy] & DSL INTERNET service w/VERIZON --- {My server is the ONLY DEVICE CONNECTED to my VERIZON DSL router/modem}
When I enter my DOMAIN NAME or WAN IP # in my browser(s)--> Chrome OR Safari -- i get my Verizon modem
set-up page-->{this incl the WAN IP# as I expected}----{NORMALLY I WOULD ACCESS MY Actiontec
modem/router via 192.168.1.1} --- While in that webpage there's an option "shared files/folders" & clicking on that option DISPLAYS MY WEBSITE ---> {"PORT FORWARDING DID NOT RESOLVE THAT"}
My next attempt @ a solution was through my Server's SystemPreference>Sharing>Internet Sharing
& this the Original Object of my post ===> "MY SHARING PANEL DOES NOT INCLUDE THE OPTION
FOR 'Internet Sharing' among the others like CD DVD, Remote Login,Remote Management, Bluetooth Sharing, etc.etc ---- Hope this additional info will help to clarify &/or explain my problem
Thanks, & best regards to you & yours
