Is Dreamweaver right for me? (also Question about Adobe courses)

Hi!
I'm a grade five student,
who is wanting to learn about
web design and animations.
I already have Photoshop cs5
but i want to learn about web design.
Dreamweaver is the correct program right?
I also have a question about Adobe Courses (Online)
Will they go through, and show you how to set up websites
with dreamweaver... Templates, etc. stuff like that?
All comments appreciates.
Thanks

I am hardy the most qualified to answer this, but I'll have a go at it. First of all, I admire your ambition!
Dreamweaver is a great tool, but it will not necessarily teach you web design. Once you have some basic idea of what goes into a web design, you will realy appreciate what DreamWeaver can do for you. I am going to pass on to you the same advice given to me when I first wanted to get into DreamWeaver and web design.
I would realy suggest some basic HTML and CSS books and use a text editor to create your first pages. Once you start to undersatnd what you are doing, then by all means, get some DreamWeaver training. Everyone has their own favorite titles to learn the basics from, so I'll just say these are a suggestion and helped me get started. The Head First series was clearly written, has a good sense of humor and helped me get the basics. Check your Libraries, second hand book stores, or other resale outlets. I know you mentioned the Adobe Online, but I've also used, and like, the Adobe Classroom in a Book series. Once I learned a particular version, I found the Missing Manual series good for advanced questions and going to a new version.
Don't get discouraged, stay with it and don't be afarid to try another book if you don't like the ones I've suggested. We all learn different ways and what worked for me may not work for you!

Two Questions about Adobe CS6

I've recently begun editing a film project and have two questions about Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 that I was hoping someone could answer.
1. Is there any way to remove the lens edges in a video clip? (without comprimising the quality of it that much)
2. Is there a way I can put a color filter over clips? (I'm looking for a kind of an old 70s gold-ish filter)
Thanks

1. Is there any way to remove the lens edges in a video clip? (without comprimising the quality of it that much)
Yes.
It will depend on the degree of lens edge intrusion into the frame,
but an enlargement of 5-10% or so is not a big problem.
2. Is there a way I can put a color filter over clips? (I'm looking for a kind of an old 70s gold-ish filter)
Oh, yeah... lots of options (including many 3rd party plugins).

Questions about Adobe Interactive Forms

Hi everybody,
I have some questions about Adobe Interactive Forms with CRM 2007.
I can create AIFs with the Template Designer via the WebUI. These templates appear e.g. for the account in the selection PopUp "Create from template". But these templates are not interactive at all, just the BP-information is displayed.
Is the template-function only a static way to create a static PDF from the BP-information? Or is there a way to have the BP-information loaded to the PDF but still interactive input to communicate via a webservice?
Thanks a lot for answers.
Regards,
Ben.

K9N2 SLI Platinum - JPW2 connection essential? Also, question about diagLEDs

I've been running a K9N2 SLI Platinum with a Phenom 9950BE and 2 Geforce 9800GT video cards for half a year now, running as stable as any computer could and I couldn't be happier. However, there's one thing that I've always had a question about - the molex connection on the board labeled JPW2. The manual says that JPW2 is "used to provide power to stable the operation of graphics card", but using the PCI-E connectors on the card appears to be adqeuate to running a stable system.
In regards to this though, am I running the risk of an underpowering my motherboard not having JPW2 plugged in? The 24-pin and 8-pin power connectors on the board are of course plugged in and my concern is merely (hopefully!) academic at this point, but I'm just curious if not having power running through JPW2 would cause any problems down the line. My components are power hogs and I believe my power supply is up to it, but I'd love it if someone wiser than I could indulge my curiousity.
Also, my diagnostic LEDS are reading something other than four green solid lights in normal operation (successful POST, Windows loaded and running). If you were to view the motherboard correctly mounted in the case, the order of the lights are: [G][R][R][G]. The manual refers to this as "BIOS Sign On - This will start showing information about logo, processor brand name, etc..." which is as incredibly unhelpful as it can be when it comes to this sort of thing. I state again that this doesn't effect normal operation - it's just another thing that I'm curious about.
Thank you for helping me put my mind to rest!

Questions about Adobe AIR and FLV license model

I'm currently looking for a game development framework which I can use for a fan-project in my spare time and also for commercial projects for the company I'm working for.
I think that the Citrus Engine which is open source and based on Apache Flex/Adobe AIR/Starling/Away3D/Box2d/Nate might be a good choice.
But I'm really confused about the license model of Adobe AIR and its runtime distribution.
Do I have to pay a license fee or royalties for my games (which include the AIR runtime in order to be stand-alone-apps) when I publish them?
If so, how much are these license fees/royalties?
Does this also concern free apps?
What is the name of the license which I would have to request from Adobe in order to publish my games?
Do I need several licenses when publishing an app on multiple AppStores (Apple/Google/Amzaon) or desktop distribution platforms (Steam/GOG)?
Are there further licensing obstacles which I have to keep in mind when using Flex/AIR for (commercial) game development?
By the way - the FAQ on the product page (http://www.adobe.com/products/air/faq.html) isn't really helping on this topic:
"How much does Adobe AIR cost?" -> "The Adobe AIR runtime and AIR SDK are free for most users."
This answer leaves me with the question: Am I belonging to the "most users" or not?
Therefore it isn't meaningful at all.
I'm also thinking about adding short video sequences as FLVs to the games.
If I understood correctly H.264 and MP3 are currently used as a standard for these video files but aren't free.
Is there a free alternative available for FLVs which can be used in combination with Adobe AIR?
Or did I get something wrong here and don't need to worry about getting sued when using these formats?
Thank you in advance for answering my numerous questions.

That's true.
I'm using a Dell Studio 1537 with 3GB of RAM and Intel Core 2 Duo and it's quick in Lr

Questions about Adobe Muse CC single-app membership.

When speaking to adobe customer service reps about Adobe Muse I feel like their taking me around in circles. My annual membership to the current Adobe Muse is going to expire in June. So before I sign on for another year I had some basic questions that seem to be baffling the adobe reps. one rep called Travis just hung up on me.
My questions;
With an Adobe Muse CC single-app membership.
Can I host a site on Business Catalyst for free?
The rep said I have to purchase Business Catalyst separately from Adobe Muse
This adobe page says, “An Adobe Muse CC one-year single-app membership includes hosting for one webBasics site
(http://www.adobe.com/au/products/muse/faq.edu.html)
How much space do I get on www.creativecloud.comwith a single-app membership?
The rep said I get 20GB when Adobe Muse becomes Adobe Muse CC in June
I currently have Adobe Muse and I have 20GB of space on creative cloud.
This adobe page says I get 10 GB (http://www.adobe.com/au/products/muse/faq.edu.html)
This adobe page says I get 20 GB (http://www.adobe.com/au/products/muse/features.edu.html)
Can someone pleas answer these questions!

With an Adobe Muse subscription, you get BC website hosting for 1 webBasics site. With a subscription to the creative cloud, hosting for 5 webBasics sites are included.
Single app subscriptions get 20GB of storage space on creative cloud.
I'll try to get that first link updated with the correct info.

What is the right Community for Questions about Adobe LiveCycle Workbench?

We purchased Abode LiveCycle Premium Print. It included a product called StreamServe which we planned to use to merge xml templates, data, and call a StreamServe webservice to generate a pdf file. It seems theStreamServe webservices are not up to that job but I suspect that Abode LiveCycle Workbench may be able to do what we want.
Bottom line: I can't determine the proper community\newsgroup to send the above issue to. Help!

Shopping for a T61 - questions about the OS and various h/w options

Hi,
I am considering buying a Thinkpad T61, but it's been a while since I have bought a computer, let alone a laptop, so I thought I'd ask a few questions here.
I have worked on several Thinkpads T-series at work before, and I liked them, but they were all provided to me by my employers.
I am browsing the different models on the Lenovo Canada web site; the US site looks just the same.
The use I would make of the computer is typical office work (Word, Excel, e-mail), synchronize data with a PDA, Internet browsing, some limited web (PHP) and image editing (Paint shop pro), and listening to digital music. On occasion, watch a movie on DVD.
I don't play 3D games.
I would use the computer with a docking station and an external keyboard, LCD monitor and mouse when I am at home.
I am looking at the T61 models with 15-inch widescreen, integrated graphics and no mobile broadband.
1.) Operating system: obviously, Vista is recommended by Lenovo, but I have heard so many negative comments on this OS that I wonder if I shouldn't stick to XP. Even on this forum, I see posts about problems with Vista. Any advice on that?
2.) I already have a license for XP on my previous machine. Assuming I buy the Vista with this one, then I would legally have the right to install either system on it, right?
I know the machine doesn't come with an install CD, but if I get one somewhere else, would I be able to install it, or does the OS come with some weird DRM system that will prevent me from installing another OS than the exact copy of the one that was shipped with it?
I ask this because I'm fairly certain that I will want to change the way the system partitions are set up.
(this might sound like a silly question, but the acronym DRM became so prominent in recent years that I want to make sure)
3.) The website says that some T61 machines come with an integrated camera. Later on in the detailed descriptions, I don't see it mentioned anywhere. Which do and which don't come with the embedded web cam?
4.) 15.4 WXGA TFT vs. 15.4 WSXGA+ TFT : what are the resolutions of each?
5.) Hard drive: I would go with a 7200 rpm model. Is there any benefit to getting the 1GB drive cache?
6.) DVD recordable option: how fast does it record CDs and DVDs ?
Thank you in advance.
Chris.-

Hi Kevin
about the speakers I cannot advice.
Regarding the driver - if there is a driver update availabel from TOSHIBA (important!!) then use it! That means they have found some kind of bug in the original driver and released a fix for it. I do not recommend you to use the nVidia generic driver since it might make the PC behave bad. StandBy / Hibernation might stop working properly. Power consumption might go up....and so on.
Regarding the BIOS. The BIOS'es are a special chapter - when upgrading the BIOS the machine re-writes a very special part of the 'hardware' (actually it's a software installed in a chip that does not go away when you turn the computer off, it is sometimes also called firmware). That firmware is needed (among other things) to get the machine to start and load the operating system.
If the re-write process fails it could mean that the firmware is not able to start the machine anymore. And if the machine does not start at all, you will have no chance to retry writing the firmware. So that mean the machine will be dead and you will not be able to do anything about it except turning to an ASP and possibly pay for the service.
So, that said, it is very important that you have a realiable powersupply (which you normally have with the AC Adapter) and that you make 100% sure that you use the correct BIOS-file.
If you can accomplish those 2 small things there should be no problem upgrading the BIOS.

How can I recover deleted folders - also - question about editing/deleting msf files

Context: My wife accidentally deleted a series of folders from Thunderbird v.24.6.0
She says that the system warned her that there was "not enough space" or something like that (she doesn't remember clearly) and asked her if she wanted to "delete them permanently" (or something like that), but she pressed "yes" anyway. She then freaked out, and when I came in to see what she was screaming and crying about, she told me the above story.
SO, after spending the last 2-3 hours reading through help articles and finding my local Mail file/structure, learning about Mork and msf and compacting and X-Mozilla-Status codes, downloading Notepad++ and poking around through some of the files to familiarize myself with their format ... here I am trying to learn how to restore the folders.
Here is where I am at so far:
1. When I went to the Activity Manager, it shows the folders that were deleted, one below the others in a list with the title "Deleted folder foldername" with a dozen different folder names.
2. When I look for the one of the folders that was deleted in the Mail/path/foldername" - I open it (the one without the file extension) in notepad++ and it is empty. There only exists line 1 and there is no text in it (vs. the other folders I check that have the emails in standard From_line format.
This concerns me greatly and leaves me stuck. Did TB actually delete and compact the folder? Are they really deleted, not just X-Mozilla-Status deleted?
3. I don't understand how to restore a folder. I know I can go into a folder and change the X-Mozilla-Status for individual messages - but how to I restore the entire folder? I don't understand how the msf related to the deleted files/folders. It seems like there would be an entry/code somewhere that tells TB - "don't read this entire folder" that I could reverse/edit. I can't figure it out on my own.
4. I understand that, if I delete the foldername.msf file, TB will compact the foldername file. I think I should NOT do this because it will permanently delete the files I want to restore - right?
Any help would be appreciated. I have an unhappy wife. Thank you.

The message she garbled I would assume is that the deletions were to large and that the deleted folder would be bypassed. So all the normal recovery from the trash is simply not possible. There is no Thunderbird magic available unfortunately. So your reduced to using operating system undelete software. I have no idea how that will go, but I just downloaded this http://ntfsundelete.com/download and it does appears to do the job, even if the close text is so pale as to be hard to see.

Animated Text In Interactive PDF, also question about SWF distribution

Hello Forum.......first post, so hi to everyone
I have created a indesign cs5 document that has some animated text flying in from the left upon mouse clicking, if i export it to a SWF it works fine but if i export it to an interactive PDF the text is already in place. Is it possible to have animated text in an interactive pdf?
Another question I have is regarding swf files, i need to create some presentations for our sales guys to run on their lap tops while out at clients, when i export it you get the resources file and the swf file....rather than just dropping these into a folder on their laptop is there a slicker way to package it in some kind of projector file.
It would also be nice if in the future I could put the presentation onto a CD and have it auto launch the presentation.
If anyone could give me some basic pointers it would be appreciated.
Thanks
James

Hi, George.
Thank you for your help and reply.
It seems that the Lightbox effect may be complicated to achieve with Acrobat in a relatively simple way. Is it possible to accomplish a similar effect using InDesign CS5 and Acrobat Pro 9 ? I would like to click on certain elements of my PDF document (images or text) and have a window of a pre-specified size (approximately 800 wide x 600 high) open in the center of the screen.
Can I do this in InDesign ?
One other things I noticed is the ability to embed html code in Acrobat. Can this be used to accomplish this effect ? Can a window be opened in the center of the screen triggered by a button in a PDF file so that this window functions as a browser and displays another document downloaded from web address (file located on a server) ?
Thank you again,
Joe.

I have a question about Adobe Flash Player 10.1 Beta for Mobile.

Hi everyone. I'm newbie at forum , if I opened this topic to the wrong place ; please , excuse me I'm an HTC HD2 user. And I noticed that ; Flash 10.1 support to the Android OS had come to HTC Google Nexus One , with "Froyo" update. I watched some videos at Youtube , about "Open Screen Project" (that Adobe leads) . And Adrian Ludwig(at Flash team) was using HTC HD2 and showing the Flash 10.1 at phone. I'm thinking that , if he used Flash at HTC HD2 , then there must be a release for phone too. I'm not sure , it's very important for me. Thank you , for your answers. Have a nice day.

Whoops, my bad. Didn't note that HD2 is WinMo.
As I understand it (and I am just a consumer, not official in any way) - the intention is to get 10.1 on every device possible, including the iPlatform if Apple ever decides to change their mind (HA!).
As for the status of WinMo currently, I am not sure about that. I know 10.1 is being tested on Blackberry, Palm, and Android for sure, but I don't know what Microsoft has been up to, considering they have their own competing tech at stake here too...
If I had to take a guess (and it would be a guess) I would say that the highest probability is 10.1 on WinMo7 devices, though I have no information to back that up, its just a guess.

IMovie problem re: converted files. Also question about rotating a video.

1. I convereted a .avi file to .mp4 and I still cannot open the file in iMovie, is it because i converted the file? What can I do about this?
2. Can I rotate a video clip using iMovie? I can't seem to find any software to do this, any help would be appreciated.

Hi John
to no: 2
In iMovie as standard - NO
1. Cxf - Turn Clip - think it is a free plug-in there
2. QT-pro (in 90-deg steps) but about $20 extra
3. FCE/P - expencive - but very interesting solution
4. there's a 4th, free option to rotate video:
goo' ol' Streamclip allows opening of dv-file,
rotate & shrink (75%) ...
illustrated how-to on my site...:

Also Question about create Random number

What's the best way to create random number in main method, which will allow the number (random) to be stored into content of queue. I was thinking somewhere along the road, is this the appropriate way to handle this?
import java.util.*;
public static void main(String[] args)
        Queue q=new Queue();
Random random = new Random ();
        for(int i=0;i<12;i++)
           q.add(random);


Close, but not quite. That will add the same random number number generator (no random numbers) to the queue 20 times.
Look at the methods in the Random class to find the one that suits your needs for using the generator (the Random) to generate a random number.

IBooks & iTunes for PC -- Quick Question About Restore

So today I had to take my original iPad back to the Apple store because apparently there was a manufacturing problem with the glass, and near the sound button the glass was slightly warped and letting dust in.
They gave me a replacement.
So now I've had to go through and restore my iPad with my backup stuff on my PC. However, I noticed something odd and maybe someone can help me out with this...
The Books area, in iTunes is missing when I plug my iPad in. Originally, on my other iPad, when I plugged it in, it said Books in the list and when I clicked that, it listed all of my books. Today, I redownloaded iBooks and have lost the original Winnie-the-Pooh novel and now it wont list books in iTunes.
Anyone have any suggestions here? This is driving me nuts.

Okay, everything has been solved. I got the books to show up on iTunes after some fiddling, and Winnie has been returned to my bookshelf. Yay!
Just took some time and its all back and fixed.

Hello, welcome to the forums.
What you may not realise is that each Adobe product has its own specialist forum, and it's very important to choose the right one. This forum isn't about products, it's about comments on the forums themselves.
So, please go back to http://www.adobe.com/support/forums.html and choose the right forum. But first, make sure you know the name of your product.
When you look at the list of messages in a forum, there is a box above that describing what the forum is for.

Also, check to see whether there are any "FAQ" (Frequently Asked Questions) sections in the product forum, and search for previous discussions about the question you wish to ask before starting a new one.

this is maybe because users are directly forwarded to this forum when looking for a contact in the otn-contact page. i suggest to change the contact-site and the direct the users to the "forums home" page.
