JNI_CreateJavaVM hangs in DLL called via Adobe plug-in

We have a plugin that works in Adobe Acrobat and Adobe Reader. The plugin is written in VS2008 VC++ and calls into a DLL that we have written.
The DLL in turn uses JNI and calls into some Java code. We've tested the DLL and calls into Java separately and that works OK.
But when it is called via the plugin in Acrobat it is failing. It seems to die immediately during the JNI initialization in that case. There is a method called JNI_CreateJavaVM where it hangs.
Do you have any idea why that might happen? Is there something protected that would not permit a dll within the scope of Acrobat to call into Java code?

Hi Leonard,
Can you please let me know the URL and any other contact information for opening a formal case with Adobe developer support group that can help with this issue?
I appreciate your time and consideration.
Thanks,
Snehal.

Question: how to get the adobe plug in to play a downloaded flv file ?

I want to know how to get the flv adobe plug in which i downloaded as a result abc or nbc or cbs.com i forget exactly which said i had to and also it seems to be used for playing most all videos from web such as those from utube,hulu, etc. So my question is how do i get the plug in to play any downloaded *.flv video ? The particulars on the one i have is:
Output folder: C:\WINDOWS\system32\Macromed\Flash
Execute: "C:\WINDOWS\system32\Macromed\Flash\uninstall_plugin.exe"
Extract: NPSWF32.dll
Extract: NPSWF32_FlashUtil.exe
Extract: flashplayer.xpt
also perhaps FLVPlayer.swf of about 9Kb may have something to do with it?
And the latest update i have was about jan 13 when it seemed to automatically take over my system and update itself.x
I know it has the ability to do what i want- which is full screen cropped ,change aspect ratios etc. and seems
It has to be able to or else it could not play the files and give those options which it does on some videos like from utube etc. in the first place. Unfortuneately it has something also to do with the useless *.swf files which are apparently of no use to anything and could certainly be eliminated .
I have downloaded several freebie flv players such as bs player etc. etc. but they all have so many faults and are not suitable. Bs player does what i want but it hangs , have to go to system mgr. to get out of it sometimes , often difficult to use etc.etc. The main features is i need is to be able to make and play playlists to automatically in full screen one after the other in a specified order with NO user intervention and the ability to magnify or 'pan in' i guess they call it and change aspect ratios so that i can have full screen as if just cropping part of horizontal such as if want to view a 16/9 aspect ratio on a computer as i have with the prior standard 4/3 aspect and change a downloaded vertically stretched to a cropped instead etc.
Also it doesn't make sense to download others and take up disk space when already have the adobe - also adobe seems to be the only one that plays hulu flv's correctly - on other flv players the video and audio are way out of sync and not just by few seconds but often by a minute or more. I know there is another 'pain' way to do it which is create a *.avi or other extension with loss of clarity etc. which have done but would like to be able to just do it in real time while playing the flv file itself as for example
as bs player does.
Anyway if there is no way to get adobe to do this does anyone know of any other free flv player downloads which will do what
i want - basically playlists, magnify , pan,crop and still full screen, change aspect ratios - other than bs player ?

The plugin is what it is: a browser plugin - it cannot act as a standalone player.
To play local flv files you either need to
download/install the standalone player (Projector) from http://www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer/downloads.html
download/install Adobe Media Player http://www.adobe.com/products/mediaplayer/

AdobePDF.dll needed from Adobe Acrobat CD during install - what?!

Greetings,
We bought a site license at considerable expense to update our users to the latest Acrobat (too many people not patching and getting viruses). I'm trying to push out via SCCM (uninstall previous version via Adobe Customization Wizard) and when I try to update users running anything other than 9.0.0 I get a message that it needs the dll file in my subject. It is not extracting the file from the data1.cab file and dropping it where the old version was previously. The only option so far is to have people browse to the file (out on a server somewhere) so the install can continue. This is unacceptable because 500 (out of 5000 we are trying to upgrade) people will get a pop up asking this when we are upgrading in the background (and they won't know why). Is there a way I can tell the installer to use the extracted cab file (which I could extract beforehand)? This is driving me insane and it isn’t making my boss very happy either. He feels he wasted $$ if we have to "sneakernet" to all these machines. Anyone have any ideas or who I can call at Adobe? My first attempt at tech support with them was laughable.

Hi,
I'm not going to be much help, but I'll try.
First, Adobe's first effort at supporting SCCM by providing a SCUP catalog is only in prerelease. There's no public info available at the moment. It sounds like some of you issues are SCCM specific.
However, I did ping high level support and got this response:
If he has a volume license, he should be transferred to a different queue in Customer Support. You might see if that happened when he called customer support.
There's nothing specific to version 9 in the KBs, but it looks like it sometimes happens if someone has installed Acrobat previously with a suite.
There are third-party discussions on this if you google it with SCCM or SMS.
I wish I could be more helpful.

How to create a pop up calendar in adobe acrobat or any other adobe tool via adobe javascript ?No third party tools needed(Eg:formrouter)

I want to create a pop up calendar in adobe acrobat or any other adobe tool via adobe javascript in a PDF form .
I wish to create the calendar without any third party tool.
I found few options like formrouter and also pdf scripting.
But I was to create the calendar via pure Adobe Javascript. If no such option is there inbuilt pop up calendar control in any adobe tool to design the PDF form and afterwards save the same as PDF.

All 3 of the options provide are all JavaScript. There is no plug-in used. You do need to place the JavaScript code text file into a special folder so that the menu and tool bar tools that allow execution of the JavaScript code and associate the pop-up calendar with a specific field.

Links generated by Word Adobe plug-in are too large

Surprise me...by helping me to come up with a solution to this obscure, but very annoying, issue.
Our company recently moved from Office 2003 to 2010 and from Acrobat Pro 9 to X. We are still using Windows XP. Our standard process involves generating PDFs with internal links via an Adobe plug-in to Word--elements such as cross references and TOCs generated in Word are turned into PDF links via Distiller (not a server install).
The problem is that the links that are created using all this upgraded software are "larger" than they used to be. They encompass more than just the letters of the cross reference and often include punctuation that follows, such as periods and closing parens. This means that when we continue with our process of turning linked text blue, characters turn blue that should be black. The old setup did not do this.
Is there any way to adjust the margins/buffer/link size so that the links that are created are tighter around the linked text? Is there another way to address this? Adjusting each link of a large document is unsustainable, but leaving these characters blue is unacceptable.
Your help is appreciated!

Thanks very much for your reply.
I was hoping there would be some tweak I could make to the settings of Distiller or maybe some registry tweaks to change the link rectangle buffer size prior to the creation of the PDF links from the Word document. I understand that the links are just "rectangles on the page" once they exist in the PDF document--but even a script to decrease the size of all of the links in all directions after rendering the PDF would be helpful, since the increase in size seems to be in all directions.
I suppose I can export the links to a spreadsheet and create a formula to decrease the link measurements by a specified amount and then re-import them.
I wonder what caused the change.
Here is a screenshot of the difference if it helps at all. It's at two different magnifications, but you can still see that the period is included in one and not in the other. And the link box is larger in all directions.
Thanks again.

Hang of RMI call when LAN connection removed

I have a client server application with comms using RMI across a TCP/IP LAN. We are in test at the moment and one of the tests is to ensure that when the LAN connection is removed, the client application handles it correctly.
We have discovered that if we pull the LAN whilst an RMI call is in progress, the call never returns, even if we subsequently plug the LAN back in. Why should this be? I would have expected a RemoteException as soon as I pull the LAN out. How come the thread gets deadlocked?
Note that we are running JRE 1.2 on the client (they are soon to be updated but it's 1400 remote, unattended sites so it's an expensive process to update to a recent JRE).
Thanks
Mat

Thanks ejp - couple of dollars coming your way. Be a couple more if you (or anyone else) can help further.
Firstly, how would I set this property in the code?
Secondly, would it be set in the client or the factory (yes we do have one)? If it's in the factory, will that help me from the client side (that's where I need it to work). I looked up the responseTimeout property and it looks like this is more for the server to close incoming connections. The problem I have is on the client side - I need the client (i.e. that is making the RMI call via an exported remote object) to be able to kill off a call that has going too long (for instance because it can't detect the closed TCP connection).
Maybe I've misunderstood the documentation I've found but that's how I read it.
Thanks again!

Create a virtual classroom via Adobe Connect 9 Web Services

Is it possible to create a virtual classroom via Adobe Connect 9 Web Services? I could not find a way in "Using Adobe Connect 9 Web Services" documentation.

The answer of Jorma Jenning is almost correct. I investigated it myself and finally made a working solution.
The trick is that virtual classroom does not have a special type, instead it is a "meeting inside trainings folder with the icon of virtual-classroom". Kinda strange logic and to add another level of hell the "trainings folder" is the one with the type "my-courses", so, finally, we get the the following workflow:
1. Call h-ttps://example.com/api/xml?action=sco-shortcuts and filter sco-s until you find one with the type="my-courses" and remember its sco-id — this will be your folder-id.
2. call h-ttps://example.com/api/xml?action=sco-update&type=meeting&icon=virtual-classroom&name=October All Hands Meeting
&folder-id=2006258750&date-begin=2006-10-01T09:00
&date-end=2006-10-01T17:00&url-path=october
The thing with icon is important.
Note that if you call report-my-training service immediately after sco-update you won't see this virtual-classroom. This is because the default permissions do not allow that. Add yourself to the user list via permissions-update and it will appear in your training list. This is different from creating virtual classroom from web interface as there you are added as a host by default.

Is it wise to keep the Nikon camera files "DSC's" after downloading them and converting to DNG files via Adobe converter for lightroom use. In other words do the DNG files have all the raw data I would ever need in processing or should I save the camera'

Is it wise to keep the Nikon camera files "DSC's" after downloading them and converting to DNG files via Adobe converter for lightroom use. In other words do the DNG files have all the raw data I would ever need in processing or should I save the camera's DSC files?

DNG files do not contain some metadata supplied by the camera, which can be used by the manufacturer's software. Thus, if you don't keep the original Raw photo, you will lose this information.
If your 1000% sure you're never going to use the manufacturer's software, then this isn't a problem. But who can be sure what software you will be using 10 years from now?

Is there a software in which I can hook up my iPhone 4s to my computer and send and receive text messages and calls (via headset) through my computer?

No.

Error "Job already started" when calling a adobe form in Z function module

Hi All,
I have a error when calling a adobe form in a custom function module.
I am using FP_FUNCTION_MODULE_NAME to get the adobe form function module and then i am using FP_JOB_OPEN function module to control the printing parameters such as no print preview or no dialog ..etc.. I dont have any exceptions during the call of FP_JOB_OPEN function module ..
Later I am calling my function module which was generated for the adobe form and i am getting the error called " JOB ALREADY STARTED".
I tried executing the same function module in se37 and the PDF form output was generated, and also by commenting FP_JOB_OPEN function module the PDF form output was generated.
But i need the FP_JOB_OPEN function module to control the output based on the output type which triggers the form output such as the medium from nast record which says print or email or fax.. etc
Please let me know how to handling this error.

Just as a followup note. If you are testing a function module from SE37 and the test button you will get a value in SY-CPROG. You must override this value for everything to work.
If you override the value of SY-CPROG with the main program that will be calling the function module you have no problem.

Has anyone successfully used a "WD My Book for Mac" via NAS (plugged into USB port on router) as a Time Machine back-up drive?

Has anyone successfully used a "WD My Book for Mac" via NAS (plugged into USB port on router) as a Time Machine back-up drive? Apple support tech tried to tell me it wasn't possible and that the only NAS Time Machine could back up to is the Time Capsule, but I'm not buying it. I know it's doable, but I'm having a hard time figuring out which External HDDs will work and which ones won't. If not My Book for Mac, is there an External HDD that will work? (Running OS X 10.9.1 - Mavericks, btw...)

Given the nature of backups, my recommendation has always been to use a strategy that is unequivocally supported by Apple. As you already determined Apple Support unequivocally informed you that your proposal will not work, unless your router is an Apple AirPort Extreme or Time Capsule.
The exhaustive list of devices supported by Time Machine amounts to the following:
AirPort Time Capsule's built-in hard disk (any model)
External USB hard disk drive connected to a Time Capsule (any model)
External USB hard disk drive connected to an AirPort Extreme (current model only)
A hard disk drive directly connected to your Mac
That is all.
Use whatever backup device you want, but you should be aware that this site is full of reports of misery from hapless individuals who had been using NAS devices for Time Machine backups, only to find that they were incomplete, corrupted, or useless when they were required. Apple won't care if you lose your data while using a Time Machine configuration specifically excluded from their technical support documents.

Unable to install the latest version of Adobe Muse via Adobe Application Manager

I´m a user of Creative Suite applications and all of them have been updated successfully with the exception of the latest version of Adobe Muse.
I´m unable to install it. I get error DW 050
I´m using Windows 7 64 bit.
All previous versions of Adobe Muse have been installed OK.
Following a forum discussion I could read, I uninstalled the previous version, but the installation fails again.
Does any body know how to solve this issue?

Dear Sachin:
Thank you for your help, however I have to get back to you to inform that after downloading the new package based on the link that you´ve provided, I´m still unable to execute the application. I get the message: “block by the administrator” and also another message: “the editor of this program is unknown and unsafe”. Please note that all other programs from Adobe´s Creative Cloud have been downloaded and installed with success. All Adobe Creative programs have been installed on my computer several months ago and all are working fine so far. This morning I installed an update for Photoshop without any problem. It seems that the problem persists only with Muse. I have to highlight that I´m the administrator of my PC and therefore all applications are currently being executed as administrator. I have never had the intention to block any program, including obviously Adobe´s Creative Suite programs.
Could you please let me know how to splve this problem?
Michael.

Viewing XMP Metadata in Adobe Bridge via Adobe Drive Connector

Hi there,
I've been trying to view remote file XMP metadata in Adobe bridge via our adobe drive connector. I've added the READ_XMP_METADATA capablitiy, and I've seen the DataType.XMP has been requested. but I'm not sure how to display the metadata on the Adobe bridge metadata panel. since the metadata is embeded in the file, when i browse the file in local drive, the metadata shows fine, but when it's on our remote server, some how bridge doesn't extract the info and display it. I can see the metadata when I browse the remote file in windows explorer adobe drive. and we do download the file to local to a temp copy, browse the temp copy in bridge also showing the metadata, The only thing not working is browsing the remote file in bridge via adobe drive connector.
Please advise what should be done, in the programmer's guide, it says for each item, request that the server return the XMP data for that asset. How should I do that? If the XMP is embeded in the file, why would I need to request for it, would it be automatically extracted from the file?
Thanks,
Katherine
