Is this a supported method by newer versions of Director: generateLightMap

hello;
I am reading a tutorial on getting UV data from a w3d;
the tutorial is located at:
http://www.dubane.com/cons/max2004/helpers/lightmapping.html;
it refers to 2 methods that I ahve never seen:
generatelightmap()
getlightmap()
any thoughts on where the tutorial is getting these methods?
thanks

Wrong warning? to open with Reader (9.3.x or higher) "This PDF form requires a newer version of ..."

Hello
I have a problem with my form, when opened with Adobe Reader Version 9.3.0.148 (included) or higher Reader systematically shows the annoying message "This PDF form requires a newer version of Adobe Reader ...".
I work with 3 versions of each form:
1) Dynamic PDF Form XDP: Generated with Adobe Designer ES 8.2, (target version "Acrobat and Adobe Reader 8.0 or later. "
XDP form has no "Warings"
XFA-Template:
2) PDF Form, generated from the XDP form of point 1), using Adobe LC Forms ES2 "renderXDPForm" method.
3) Flatten PDF, generated from the PDF form, resulting in point 2) value, using Adobe LC Assembler ES2.
DDX:
I have generated 3 different PDF rendering, changing only the "target version":
a.1 PDFFormRenderSpec.setAcrobatVersion (AcrobatVersion.Acrobat_6): MyForm-ES-AcroVersion6.pdf.
b.1 PDFFormRenderSpec.setAcrobatVersion (AcrobatVersion.Acrobat_7_0_5): MyForm-ES-AcroVersion7.pdf
c.1 PDFFormRenderSpec.setAcrobatVersion (AcrobatVersion.Acrobat_8): MyForm-ES-AcroVersion8.pdf
Of all that I've created a flat version using Assembler:
a.2: MyForm-ES-AcroVersion6-flatten.pdf
b.2: MyForm-ES-AcroVersion7-flatten.pdf
c.2: MyForm-ES-AcroVersion8-flatten.pdf
Attach all forms of work[zip 4 download].
Well ... I tried to open all forms generated (six) with versions of Adobe Reader from 8.1.0 to 10.0.1.434 X and the findings are that the annoying warning message is displayed only with the flattened forms and from version 9.3 .0.148 (included) or higher.
Table of test, where
OK= No message at open.
Err= Message displayed.
I do not understand or just logical that the most current versions (and higher) Reader is precisely this message to appear at what may be due? What's happening?
Why the message is taught only in the flattened forms?
How I can solve this problem?
Thanks.

I do not use the method "renderPDFForm" (at least not explicitly), instead use the "renderXDPForm (...)".
I added the XDP form the zip (I forgot): download from here!
And the only parameter that you can tell this method over the "target" of the resulting PDF is "com.adobe.idp.services.PDFFormRenderSpec. "
/* Common to all generated PDF */
com.adobe.idp.services.PDFFormRenderSpec renderSpec= new com.adobe.idp.services.PDFFormRenderSpec();
renderSpec.setLinearizedPDF(true);
renderSpec.setLocale("es_ES");
renderSpec.setRenderAtClient(RenderAtClient.No);
renderSpec.setCacheEnabled(false);
renderSpec.setStandAlone(true);
/* Target version 8 o superior: Usede ONLY to generate "MyForm-ES-AcroVersion8.pdf" */
renderSpec.setAcrobatVersion(AcrobatVersion.Acrobat_8);
/* Target version 7.0.5 o superior: Usede ONLY to generate "MyForm-ES-AcroVersion7.pdf" */
renderSpec.setAcrobatVersion(AcrobatVersion.Acrobat_7_0_5);
/* Target version 6 o superior: Usede ONLY to generate "MyForm-ES-AcroVersion6.pdf" */
renderSpec.setAcrobatVersion(AcrobatVersion.Acrobat_6);
After this, process PDF forms resulting in Assembler.
I tried also NO explicitly assign the "AcroVersion" ... and in such cases, the resulting AcroVersion indicated corresponds to the time of design (Adobe Designer, File / Form Properties / Default / Target Version), and in such cases the resulting PDF, also displays the warning message.
I do not know if I answered your question.
Any idea?

Attempted repair of 3.5.1 database yields message that it may "...remove data supported only in newer versions..."

After starting Aperture with Command+Option keys, and being presented Photo Library First Aid, then choosing Repair Database radio button, then clicking on Repair --- I am presented with a dailogue:
"This library has been opened with a newer version of Aperture.
Repairing the library using this version of Aperture may remove data supported only in newer versions of Aperture."
This does not add up, as I am running 3.5.1, which is the newest version.
So, I am concerned about running the repair.
Thoughts?
Richard

Richard, I am seeing the same. For some libraries Aperture seems to be confused about the version:
My Aperture version is 3.5.1, the library is version 3.5.1, but still I am getting this message when trying to repair, even after repeated repairs.
The repair does not seem to cause any harm, however, but I cannot recommend it as safe, as long as we do not know, what is causing this.
I am seeing this only for libraries, that have been opened by the latest iPhoto 9.5.1. Is that the same for your Aperture libraries?
-- Léonie
Added: Repeated "Repair" does not help, but after one "rebuild", the version number will revert to normal and stick, and the warning is gone. But don't try to "rebuild" without first updating your backup of the Aperture library.

When I click on a saved document or spreadsheet, I get this message You need a newer version of Numbers to open this document. When I go Software update, there is no update for pages or numbers. can't purchase or update?

Trying re-purchasing. won't let me. says to check for updates?
any suggestions

It sounds to me as though you are attempting to open a Pages 09 document with the Pages 08 application. If you do have Pages 09 on your computer, it may be that for some reason an existing Pages 08 application is invoked accidentally.

I have a MacBook Pro version 10.7.5 Every time I try to open iphoto I get the warning: "To open your library with this version of iPhoto, it first needs to be prepared. You have opened this photo library with a newer version of iPhoto." How do I do this?

Thank you!

No I have not tried those things. I don't even know what that means I suppose I have the newest version of aperature; I just bought it 4 days ago.

I'm in trouble, my iPod Touch is giving 4th shock when recharge and the battery does not last any more. who knows or has a similar problem, please help me. Note: all this after I downloaded the new version OS5.

I would make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store because of the shock issue. I doubt it was caused by the update.

This PDF form requires a newer version of Adobe reader !?

Hi there
I use LiveCycle 8 and I design forms for a target audience using Acrobat Reader 7..
My problem is whatever I put in a form, I get a really annoying message when opened in Acrobat reader 7
This PDF form requires a newer version of Adobe reader, Without a newer version, the form may be displayed but not work properly etc....
This doesn't inspire confidence for the user.
I get this message even if I open a new form, add a single textfield and save as Acrobat 7 PDF form.
Is there a way around this ?
Thanks
Chris

I am not too sure, I thought that saving as Acrobat 7 pdf,would do that. Is that not the case ? Are you referring to something else ?
Thanks
Chris

Designer form prompts Reader X error:"This PDF form requires a newer version of Adobe Reader"

I have a PDF form that was created using LiveCycle Designer ES 8.2. PDF version 1.6, so it's good for Reader 7.x and above.
When someone using Adobe Reader X tries to open the form, they get this javascript error message:
"This PDF form requires a newer version of Adobe Reader. Without a newer version, the form may be displayed, but it might not work properly. Some form elements might not be visible at all. In an internet connection is available, clicking OK will download and install the latest version."
Is there anything I can do to the form that would make this error message go away? Is this a know issue with Adobe Reader X or Designer?

Is there any code running on the form?
Reader X has come out with additional security features that must be disabled to get any PDF form w/code to work.
Open Adobe Reader X --> click on Edit --> Preferences. Under the General Category, uncheck "Enable Protected Mode at startup" (last checkbox in the dialog box). Click OK and try to open your form.

Just upgrade Pages and now I keep getting this asinine message about a new version when I attempt to open Pages 09

I just upgraded to the new version of Pages that was released today.
Before that I could start up either the old Pages 09 version or the new version whichever one I visit.
Seeing as how I have a lot document that use feature not included in the newer version I have been running the older version most of the time.
Now if I attempt to do that, I get this asinine message about a new version which takes me to the new version and gives me now way to open the older version.
Is any one aware of a work around for this problem?
I am going the express my displeasure on the Apple Feedback page now also.

How to uninstall apple mobile device support & upgrade to newer version?

For my ipod touch, every time i plug it into my laptop itunes says "itunes requires a newer version of apple mobile device support. please uninstall both apple mobile device supprt & itunes then install itunes again" ive uninstalled itunes & all of its properties & exta files twice & the message still pops up! I dont even know what the apple mobile device support is.. Im out of options.

When you removed and reinstalled iTunes and other APple software did youdo it this way:
Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7
Next I would try posting in the iTunes forum

I downloaded the latest version of iTunes and now ALL of my songs sounf d like skipping records. How do I get rid of this or completely remove the new version that I downloaded???

I booted up my computer and opened up my usual shortcuts. I got a message from iTunes that a new version was available and would I like to download it. I clicked on "yes". It took over 1/2 hour to download and now ALL of my songs sound like a skipping record or like they are tripping over themselves. I uninstalled the ITunes and tried reinstalling my old version. I've tried EVERYTHING I could think of to get my old version back but everytime I go through the download process I get a message saying that - the file "iTunes Library.itl "cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of iTunes. I was finally able to download a version that will open but it has the same "skipping" problem. How do I stop/fix this or COMPLETELY get rid of this version of iTunes and re-download what I had??? I'm REALLY distressed.      Jim

Usually, the exclamation mark tells you that the song was not where the program expected to find it. It may also mean that there was an error with the file itself.
   If you click on the exclamation mark, it may give you a reason. You can also double click the file to make it play. If the file is not found, it will tell you. Just follow the prompts to look for the song again. It will ask you if you want to look for the other missing songs in the same folder. You can do it, but unfortunately, the last few updates have made the program blind to the songs that are there and you sometimes have to do the same process for each song.
   If neither of these help, I would suggest starting from scratch and reinstalling iTunes. I have had to do that before. Do your best to back up the library and such first.
   Sometimes a computer will rename a hard disk (Windows) and all the songs on that disk will be gone to iTunes because it will think it's looking in the right place. It can't recognize that the hard disk or partition has been renamed.
I know that this is a podcast, but the principle is the same. A dialogue box should pop up to tell you just what the problem is.
   I hope this helps!

I need to install Mozella Firefox 2.0 to fill out a form that is not supported with the newer version that is installed on my PC. Do I need to delete the new version before using the older version?

I need to install Mozella Firefox 2.0 to fill out a form that is not supported to input info from the newer version that is installed on my PC. Do I need to delete the newer version before using the older version? If so, how do I delete the new version and install the older version?

If you just need it for one site you can use the portable version of Firefox 2 instead. You can install the portable version on a USB key, or if one is not available choose the custom install and install it somewhere on your hard drive. The portable version will not interfere with your current version of Firefox. You can get the portable version from http://portableapps.com/apps/internet/firefox_portable - the link for Firefox 2.0.0.20 is near the bottom of that page.

Adobe Flash crash when I try to upload some photos to create an album on Facebook . I think this issue related to the new version of Mozilla Firefox that I had installed 3 days ago and cause my system not able to open the internet . But I have sent a rep

Adobe flash crash when I try to upload photos to created album on Facebook . Is this related to the new version of Mozilla Firefox that I installed few days ago.

Did you reinstall CS3 after CC?
For that matter, doing an in-place upgrade on the OS is always a gamble with Adobe programs. Reinstalling all the versions you need, in order, would probably solve your problem.
And you shouldn't need to save as IDML after opening the .inx in CC.

I need to download Firefox 1.5 or 2.0 in order to run a program that is not supported in the newer versions of firefox. How can I get the older versions?
