Invisible spacing when creating a image?

There doesn't seem to be one good spot to this question, so im posting here. I have at work a imac 10.4 os and use Adobe cs3 suite. It seems on occasion when a create a image just by typing in a name say in photoshop i get a space before or after the name of the image. No im not hitting the spacebar when i do this. I dont have this issue on my pc at home. It could be a issue for moving or uploading files to the internet or elsewhere. Short of checking each image after i create it, any suggestions? thank you

Hi there, do you have any 3rd party stuff, like maybe Stuffit AVR installed?
Here's what I'd try if not...
Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, then move these files to the Desktop.
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.finder.plist
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.recentitems.plist
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.desktop.plist
Then reboot once more.

  • Disk Utility - Input/Output error when creating disk image

    Hello!
    A few days ago I was unable to turn on my Macbook Pro, and was stuck on the white screen. I've been searching around quite a lot on this forum, and before I try fixing anything, I REALLY need to back-up my files! I just bought a 2TB hard-drive, which I have partitioned to GUID and Mac OS Extended (Journaled), (it perfectly works on another Mac).
    I now want to attempt to create an image of my harddrive (Macintosh HD) onto my external drive (which is empty). I've tried doing this both in 'read-only' and in 'compressed', but about halfway through, I receive a message saying "Unable to create 04/2014 backup.dmg (Input/Output) error".
    I saw on another similar post that I might want to install DiskDrill or DataRescue. I'm fairly sure this is impossible for me to do, since my screen is completely white, and I'm unable to access my desktop.
    I can only access Disk Utility through pressing command+R when starting my computer. Hence, I need to successfully back up my files through Disk Utility...
    I'm aware that my HD may be corrupted since this is happening, but there must be a way for me to put an image on my external HD?? A few days ago, when I clicked on Repair Disk it said "Impossible to repair: invalid node structure". But now, it says that "Macintosh HD appears to be OK". I have no idea what's changed... And I can still not start my computer past the white screen...
    I'm very bad with IT and computers, and have extensively tried to fix this on my own, but I'm now stuck here, with this "input/output error"...!
    Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!
    PS: I do not have Applecare, this is an old computer from 2009.

    Thanks for your answer.
    Yes, I thought that might be the case - but I'd taken my Mac and Logic disks to a Genius bar, and the 'Genius' had said he'd fixed the issue. I just wish he'd explained what he did and why he didn't replace the faulty disk(s)!
    But is there any way around having the claim a disk, now I'm living abroad and my 'warrantee' has run out? It's going to be a pain in the fundament trying to claim a replacement set.

  • Options for image format and encryption when creating disk image?

    I am trying to help someone via email, so I am not positive that he is doing everything I tell him .
    He was having problems with creating a disk image of his project, but I thought he was getting it now until he sent me a message asking what settings I select when creating a disk image. He included a picture that has the options in drop-down bars. The first two are not a problem, but I don't know where the second two are coming from, as I have never gotten those:
    +Save As: [Name of project]+
    +Where: [Location]+
    These two are what I see each time I do a 'Save as disk image' but he also has a block with these other two options, that I have never seen. I put his default selections in the brackets:
    +Image Format [read-only]+
    +Encryption: [none]+
    I took a look at iDVD's options for archiving a project, thinking that he had done that, but I still do not get these options.
    Any information appreciated.

  • System Image Utility 10.6.3 - fails when creating NetBoot image from DVD

    System Image Utility 10.6.3, trying to create a NetBoot image from a bundled installer disc that came with a 27" Late 2009 iMac (iMac11,1). Image creation fails consistently, since the image that System Image Utility creates is only 901M.

    Hi Don, here's my guess...
    The 901 number is additional space added in the scripts. This indicates that the source image size was 0.
    Since you are making a NetBoot from Install media, under the covers the installer process is being run to create a NetBoot volume. The media shipped with the 27" iMac is most likely CPU specific and thus the installation fails because you are trying to create the image (i.e. install the system) on an unsupported CPU.
    In order to produce a NetBoot from the install media, you'll have to create it on the 27" iMac.
    Hi Brian,
    Thanks for the response. This makes perfect sense. I'll give this a try and shout back!

  • Error when creating an image (dmg) using hdiutil

    Hi everybody,
    I´m using a script which creates an image (dmg) from a selected folder.
    This works without errors.
    But I also want to create images from CDs and DVDs using this script. Doing so I always get the error "Only one image can be created at a time"
    I thought that a previous imaging process was not finished yet and I rebooted the Mac. But I still get this error. Any idea?
    Here is the script:
    set Ordner to choose folder
    tell application "Finder"
    set diskNames to name of Ordner
    set myNewPath to POSIX path of (path to desktop folder) as string
    set theListe to every process
    end tell
    set myNewPath to myNewPath & diskNames & ".dmg"
    set Quellordner to POSIX path of Ordner as string
    set Skript to "hdiutil create -srcfolder " & Quellordner & " " & myNewPath
    do shell script Skript
    iMac Core Duo/1,5 GB; MacBook Pro Core2Duo 2GB   Mac OS X (10.4.4)  

    I believe this has something to do with terminal and have spaces in folder names / disk names. As it sees the space and thinks it is another command and in this case i believe it thinks you are trying to do two or more disk images at once. Therefore it is important to deal with spaces. Thankfully you should be ablr to get around this by using the quoted form command which i have implemented below.
    I repeated your error using a folder called "Cd for Cherie". Folders without gaps such as "pH" worked fine.
    I havent tested this with any disk but i believe if you alter it to this hopefully it will work
    Also the name of the folder wasnt working for me so i altered to to work for me, i am using 10.4.8 so if it doesnt work for you then change it back.
    --Start Code
    tell application "Finder"
    set infor to info for Ordner
    set diskNames to name of infor
    -- display dialog diskNames as string
    --set diskNames to name of Ordner
    set myNewPath to POSIX path of (path to desktop folder) as string
    -- set theListe to every process
    end tell
    set myNewPath to quoted form of (myNewPath & diskNames & ".dmg")
    set Quellordner to quoted form of POSIX path of Ordner as string
    set Skript to "hdiutil create -srcfolder " & Quellordner & " " & myNewPath
    do shell script Skript
    --end code

  • How to speed up PDF batch processing when creating searchable image PDF's?

    When using the batch processing tool in adobe to create multiple searchable image files into PDF, the process is considerably slower compared to scanning straight from the adobe window and importing scan back into adobe. Is there a way to get around this?

    The flaw is here:
    This is a Windows Server 2012 box
    Adobe desktop programs are generally not officially supported on server operating systems. Whatever issues you have are probably due to things like local users vs. network users, disk quota, specific group policies or plain and simple another process occupying or blocking the same port that the QT server is using. In any case, this is nothing we can figure out for you. You have to sit down and work your way through the server's administration tools, turn off stuff, change user permissions. Check the event logs for conflicting processes or use tools like Sysinternals' Process Monitor or Wireshark to track down port collisions and otehr problems.

  • Photoshop CS6 pixelates when creating new image

    When i create a new image in photoshop it pixelates. Im not sure what settings im missing. I created a rounded rectangle which pixelates in their corners

    From what you are showing in the above settings it will pixelate?
    100x145px then enlarged on screen (about 500%) like you have in the above screenshot?
    If you want a larger art board then create it larger in size? If you view the above art board in the exact size then the corners will appear just right..?

  • Labview crashes when creating large image files

    I have a problem with Labview 6.0.2( I've tested evaluation version 7.0 too).
    I'm constructing a very large image, for example: 4500x4500 pixels. Labview crashes when converting the pixture to a pixmap. The image is fully constructed on my screen (in a picture control), but when converting it to a pixmap (for saving the image in a known format (bmp, jpg, tiff)), Labview crashes.
    I did some testing and when the number of pixels exceeded the limit of 2^24(16777216), the file 'image.cpp' crashes on line 1570. The vi to convert it to a pixmap is: P'icture to pixmap.vi'
    Does someone know a workaround for this problem? Or is there a fix for it?
    Thank you!

    I've tested the 6i version of my VI in Labview 7.0 evalutation version. It raised an error but not the same error:
    d:\lvworm\src\lvsource\compatexport.cpp(37) : DAbort: Called a routine not in the compatibility LVRT table
    $Id: //labview/branches/Wormhole/dev/lvsource/compatexport.cpp#11 $
    0x004BD4CB - LabVIEW_Eval + 0
    0x0EB710D9 - lvs248 + 0
    0x094C87A0 - + 0
    So i replaced the picture VI's with the 7.0 evalutation version VI's, and it worked. It is now possible for me to construct very large image files!
    I see no attached VI to test. But i guess it is also solved in Labview 7.0
    I used this file to convert the picture to image data:
    C:\Program Files\National Instruments\LabVIEW 7.0 Evaluation\vi.lib
    \picture\pictutil.llb\Picture to Pixmap.vi
    And this file to convert image data to bmp:
    C:\Program Files\National Instruments\LabVIEW 7.0 Evaluation\vi.lib\picture\bmp.llb\Write BMP File.vi
    I guess i have to write a workaround for this problem:
    divide the picture in blocks of 4096 x 4096 and then merge the image data arrays of the bloks together.

  • Crashes when creating disc image

    Hello.
    I've tried several times now to burn a disc image instead of burning to DVD because I want to make more copies in the future AND because I'd like an archive.
    The issue I'm running into is that all three times I've tried this, iDVD crashes at some point during the process. But it crashed at a different point each time.
    Any idea what could be causing this?
    Thanks,

  • How do you shuffle the image order when creating a new slideshow in apterture 3?  i would like to do this automatically when creating a new slideshow.  i see how you do it when you just play a slideshow.

    how do you shuffle the image order when creating a new slideshow in apterture 3?  i would like to do this automatically when creating a new slideshow.  i see how you do it with presets when you just play a slideshow, but i don't see an option to randomly shuffle the slide order when you create a new slideshow.  i know you can sort it by different fields, but i want it to be random.  thanks.

    If you want to rearrange images in random order you can try an AppleScript:
    retrieve a list of selected images from Aperture
    shuffe the list properly
    create an album in Aperture and add the images from the list to the album (make sure that the album set to be orederd manually)
    Here  is a sample script that shuffles the selected images and displays them in random order in Full Screen Mode:
    on removeItem(ims, i)
      -- remove the item at position "i" from a list ims
              if ims is {} then return {}
              if (length of ims is 1) then return {}
              if i < 2 then return rest of ims
              if (i = length of ims) then return (items 1 thru (i - 1) of ims)
              if i > (length of ims) then return ims -- should be error?
              return (items 1 thru (i - 1) of ims) & (items (i + 1) thru (length of ims) of ims)
    end removeItem
    on shuffle_items(ims)
      -- shuffle the items of the list "ims" randomly
              local numitems, ims_shuffled, nextrest, nextpick, i
              set numitems to length of ims
              if length of ims < 2 then return ims
              set ims_shuffled to {}
              set nextrest to ims
              repeat until nextrest is {}
                        set i to (random number (numitems - 1)) + 1
                        set nextpick to item i of nextrest
                        set beginning of ims_shuffled to nextpick
                        set numitems to numitems - 1
                        set nextrest to removeItem(nextrest, i)
              end repeat
              return ims_shuffled
    end shuffle_items
    on shuffleIms()
      -- retrieve the selected images from Aperture
      -- and display them in random order in full screen mode
              local imageSel, shuffled, i
              tell application "Aperture"
      activate
                        set imageSel to (get selection)
                        set shuffled to my shuffle_items(imageSel)
                        set fullscreen to true
                        if imageSel is {} then error "Please select some images."
                        repeat with i from 1 to count of shuffled
                                  reveal {item i of shuffled}
      delay 3 -- chnage that to the time you want
                        end repeat
                        set fullscreen to false
                        return shuffled
              end tell
    end shuffleIms
    shuffleIms()
    Some more code snippets to go from here:
    To create an album:
                        tell library 1
                                  if not (exists album "shuffledAlbum") then
      make new album with properties {name:"shuffledAlbum", image version:shuffled}
                                  end if
                        end tell
    And to add the images from the shuffled list to the album:
                        repeat with i from 1 to count of shuffled
                                  duplicate item i of shuffled to album "shuffledAlbum"
                        end repeat

  • Disk Utility stops responding when creating a CD/DVD image

    I'm using a PowerBook G4 (Intel processor) and recently updated from 10.5.8 to Snow Leopard.
    I've been copying some personal DVDs (Non-commercial so not copy protected) with Disk Utility.
    It was working just fine under 10.5.8, and for the first DVD after updating.
    However now when I try to create an image from the DVD, the dialog box opens as though it is
    reading from the DVD (As usual) but the progress bar doesn't move.
    When I try to cancel, the spinning beach ball comes up and end up having to force quit.
    I have tried with various DVDs but the result is the same.
    I have shutdown and restarted, and even reset the P-RAM for good measure, but to no effect.
    There is no Disk Utility file in the preferences folder so I was unable to trash preferences.
    FYI:  I bought the computer in Japan so I am using the Japanese OS, but I expect that should
    make no difference to the problem.
    Any suggestions for troubleshooting would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks in advance!!

    Try setting up another admin user account to see if the same problem continues. If Back-to-My Mac is selected in System Preferences, the Guest account will not work. The intent is to see if it is specific to one account or a system wide problem. This account can be deleted later.
    Isolating an issue by using another user account
    If the problem is still there, try booting into the Safe Mode using your normal account.  Disconnect all peripherals except those needed for the test. Shut down the computer and then power it back up after waiting 10 seconds. Immediately after hearing the startup chime, hold down the shift key and continue to hold it until the gray Apple icon and a progress bar appear. The boot up is significantly slower than normal. This will reset some caches, forces a directory check, and disables all startup and login items, among other things. When you reboot normally, the initial reboot may be slower than normal. If the system operates normally, there may be 3rd party applications which are causing a problem. Try deleting/disabling the third party applications after a restart by using the application un-installer. For each disable/delete, you will need to restart if you don't do them all at once.

    I created an image in Photoshop and saved it as the PSD file. Now when I try and open it it says it is not compatible with my version. How could this be when I created it in this version?

    That depends on why it won't open.  Most of the time it means the file is corrupted and unlikely to be recovered. If you saved it right after adding or copying a LOT of layers - then it might just be the layer limit and we can attempt to recover it.

  • Corrupt image formatting when creating pdf from embedded visio image in MS word

    Hello, Using Adobe Acrobat 9 standard and trying to create a PDF file from an MS word (version 2003) document.  PDF file created is fine except for an image (embedded visio diagram imported into word).  When created in PDF, the image is missing many of the diagram labels, and other text boxes are in the wrong font and wrong location.  I don't know if it's my Adobe Acrobat or MS Word settings that need to be updated.
    thanks, NB

    Dear fellows,
    the problem is still present.  My system:Windows 7 32-Bit Prof, MS Office 2010 Prof, Acrobat X Pro 10.1.1, Vision 2010 Prof, all updates installed.
    Problem #1: Even the latest Acrobat X 10.1.1 version causes Visio 2010 to start with error messages, origin: the Acrobat Add-In.  Therefore I de-activated the Acrobat Add-In, again, as in the past.
    As I design grafics with Visio 2010, I mark them in the active Visio window, copy the marked parts and then insert them into my Word-Document.  So far, so good and as I want it.
    The (still present) problem: I can produce a PDF file using the "save as Adobe PDF", but the Visio drawing is incomplete and corrupt.  E.g. arrows as line endings have disappeared.
    PS: But using Adobes PDF printer sets the embedded Visio drawing correctly!  But using the printer one looses some features of the "save as Adobe PDF" command.
    Well, probably one day ...

  • Images Disappear when creating PDF

    When creating a PDF out of InDesign we are having issues with images diappearig when Postscript Overprint / Overprint Preview is on.  When printing images also do not show up. When viewing in Reader Images do not show up.  Has anyone run into this issue, we are running CS3 & CS4.  Any help will be appreciated

    Most likely cause is that the images are set to non-printing in some way, either inidvidually through the Atrributes Panel, or they're on a layer that is set to non-printing.

  • Getting -61 error when trying to create an image

    I am trying to create a new image .. and my hard drive is not listed on the left hand panel .. the other night it worked fine except it would keep locking up so i did a disc repair and then restarted when i did a restart to prepare for a fresh install i noticed my hard drive was no longer in the disc utlitity not sure why that is.. Now the Snow leopard disc is stuck in the drive and I am unable to eject the disc tried almost every ejection command there is nothing .. isnt there a way to mount the hard drive through the terminal?

    Hmmm... I have a hunch:  attempting to read through the imprecise Mac terminology of your previous posts, my intuition tells me that when you were referencing "installing on a new image" and "creating an image" that then "defaulted to 17 MB", you were misusing the term "image" to mean "partition".
    If that's the case and you went and tried to create a partition on your hard drive , then you obviously destroyed all your data and even the drive's formatting.
    That would most certainly explain a non-working hard drive.
