Kindle plugin export only converts one file

I am using InDesign 5.0. I installed the lastest version of the Kindle Plugin. I open all my individual indd book chapters (14 in all) and then create a book file which I save (and make sure the TOC styles are copied into the primary Style Source file). When I click the Export to Kindle option, the plugin only converts whatever single indd file I have selected in the window (however all are open in the window). Why is it not converting all 14 of my book chapters at once into one file? I am a new user of InDesign (less than a year) and maybe I am missing something that is so very obvious that I cannot see it -- if you know what I mean. :-) Can anyone explain to me the error of my ways? Thank you! ~ Carolyn

I'm afraid I'd only be guessing at this point. I don't do epub at all. I do know, however, that CS5.5 tends to work better than CS5, and CS6 better still.
One thing would be to make sure your CS5 is fully patched to the 7.0.4 update.

Error message when I try to convert pdf to excel, after three attempts I could only convert one file.

Error message when I try to convert pdf to excel, after three attempts I could only convert one file.

Hi pdf to excel,
What is the error that you're receiving when you try to convert? Is it the "Conversion Failure" message? Can you tell me more about the files you're unable to convert? What application created the PDFs? Are there many pages in these these files, or a complex mix of text and graphics?
It'll also be helpful to know whether you're converting via the ExportPDF website (and what browser you're using), or through Adobe Reader.
I look forward to hearing back from you, so we can get to the bottom of this!
Best,
Sara

How can I make a pdf book with "camera to pdf" option on phone? I can only convert one pic at a time

How can I make a pdf book (single pdf file with several pages) with "camera to pdf" option on phone? I can only convert one pic at a time. ( Or )how can I attach all those pictures converted pdf's into one pdf file which obviously results in to a single pdf file with several pages in it ?

Adobe Reader on the iPhone is a PDF reading app. It's not a creation app.
You need to get an app like Pages which is intended for page layout. It can place pictures from the phone and export PDF.

IMovie 11 only imports one file at a time

Recently, aside from the legendary stability issues (decent today, thank you very much) - I am working on a lenghty project with dozens of clips, but in the Import Movies dialog, no matter how many files I select, I only get ONE file. I have to go back and fetch them one at a time. Yes, they are .MOV file, even better, they were EXPORTED with iMovie... so I am reasonably sure it's NOT format issues.
So with a complex composition, imagine how tedious it is to bring in clips one at a time...

Keynote is exporting only to .pps files

Keynote is exporting only to .pps files when I export to PowerPoint. The pps files play in PowerPoint but they cannot be edited. How can I get an export to a ppt file?

Update:
I solved the problem by manually changing the extension from .pps to ppt. This allowed me to use and edit the presentation in PowerPoint with not difficulties.
I am using Keynote 5.0.5 and OS 10.8.2
I have 8 GB memory and a 2.66 GHz i7

ID CS6 Kindle Plugin Export Error

I'm using InDesign 6 v 8.0.1 on a Mac Pro running OS X 10.7.5 Lion.
After giving up on the Kindle Plugin for InDesign last year -- I couldn't install it, like others -- I finally managed to get the plugin to install today.
I fired up one of my simplest current projects: a single document, no images, no links, two paragraph styles. Then I happily went up to the File menu, selected Export for Kindle..., was shown a Save dialog, hit Save....
And got the following error message: Bad argument list
Once I hit the OK button, another error message popped up:
An attached script generated the following error:
object does not support the property or method 'merged'
I gather that there's a runtime error in the export script somewhere -- but the script doesn't show up in my script folders, so even if I knew what I was doing (which I wouldn't) I can't find the plugin script.
What gives? I know it's an Amazon plugin (I'm posting on the KDP forums as well), but has anyone else here run into this problem?

I'm afraid I'd only be guessing at this point. I don't do epub at all. I do know, however, that CS5.5 tends to work better than CS5, and CS6 better still.

Quicktime only play one file at a time

I would like to use QuickTime player to play mp3s. when I play a file and then open another it opens another instance of Quicktime and both files play at the same time.
Is there a terminal command to only have one instance of quicktime at a time?

Is there a terminal command to only have one instance of quicktime at a time?
Not a big Terminal user, but as far as I know, the answer would be "No!" Nor does the QT Player (QT X) have any preferences that would help here.
I would like to use QuickTime player to play mp3s. when I play a file and then open another it opens another instance of Quicktime and both files play at the same time.
With the QT Player (QT X) the specified media player, you have three basic options:
Create a reference playlist or pseudo-playlist,
Create a standalone "album" file, or
Create a an Automator script that will play any group of folders and/or individual files dropped to it.
For instance, if you have QT 7 install on your system and is is keyed for "Pro" use, then you can use it to create a "reference" (pseudo-playlist) or "standalone" (album" file that will play the content you add in the order you add it to the player. The "reference" file is very small since it only tells the QT Player to play the source files located else where on your system but is not, generally speaking, "transportable" since files are easily "orphaned" by inexperienced users. On the other hand, the "standalone" contains all of the original data stored internally and can be move or shared across systems and media devices having compatible media players. Both types of files are fixed with respect to both the content and its playback order.
An automator "drop" script works like the playlist or pseudo-playlist file described above but has the advantage of allowing the user to grab and combination of files and/or folders and play them sequentially in the order (I believe) in the order they are selected. Its major disadvantage is that the user must select, drag, and drop the set of files and/or folders each time he or she wishes to play the content whereas playlists, "pseudo-playlists," and "albums" play the same files in the same order each time they are opened.
Most users prefer an alternative solution—that of using an alternative player. Most use iTunes since it also "manages" the media content. Music albums are, in and of themselves, playlists. However, users can also create smart or manual custom playlists as desired. These playlists are "reference" playlists by nature but can be exported, burned, streamed, or sync'd to mobile devices if desired by the user and thus, to my mind, offers the most available options to the average user.
Another alternative would be to use a third-party media player having "playlist" capabilities. One popular example would be the VLC media player. Folders, files, albums, etc. can be dropped to the app player window and automatically begin playing in the order dropped. Further, the playlist can be saved as an M3U playlist file that can be recalled by VLC (or iTunes) later if desired. Unfortunately these M3U files are not QT X or QT 7 compatible. (NOTE: The M3U file, like the QT 7 "reference" file mentioned above, merely contains pointers to data stored elsewhere on your system and any change to the relative navigation path can orphan the resource data.)

Exporting clips from one file

I am trying to export clips in Quicktime format onto a cd for someone else to edit.
I imported a sequence from FCE that appeared as one clip in iMovie 06. I split the clips. There are 32 separate clips now. I need to copy these onto a cd so that someone else can edit them into a movie. When I tried copying them, the clips appeared as one file NOT 32 separate clips.

.. a bit exotic, that workflow.. ? why not using FCE for that task..
in iM:
select/'highlight' the clip, goto export, check the box 'selected clips only', choose FullQuality or whatever quality.. done.
note: a CD fits 3secs of dv.. probably a dataDVD is better, an external Harddrive best practice..

Reconnect Media - Will only do one file at a time. (all files is checked)

I found one Google search that said this may be a bug... http://forums.creativecow.net/thread/8/1047891 and it's really bothering me since I have about 500 more media files to connect.
When I select multiple files in my Project File Browser, right click, hit Reconnect Media... It opens the Reconnect Files window. Then I hit "Locate", navigate to the folder holding the files (Reconnect All files in Relative Path is checked), select the file, confirm, then hit connect... Only one file (the first one selected) reconnects.
It's worse than that for me, now the file is Connected in my Project File browser, but it still doesn't reconnect in my sequences. So now I have to go in the sequence and right click on the individual clips, and manually reconnect those as well.
At this point it take 6 plus clicks per file missing, times two because I have to reconnect these clips in the sequences as well... times 500 because that's how many offline files I have.
My lord, I've already done this to half of the project, I can't do it any more... where am I going wrong or is this a bug? If so, please tell me there is a workaround.
The file I'm working in is a feature film, so it's huge... I can't start over at this point.
Thanks for your time!
-Monty

The only multiple files it will reconnect are the ones that are already connected.
I hope I figured it out but need more advice. It may be that the files that won't connect do not have a visible file extension ".mov". How can I get these files to shoe ".mov" at the end of their names without manually renaming them all?
And the reason this is happening is I was using reference files to edit a movie, now I've been given new hard drives with the final uncompressed footage but same file names for each clip... plus the new hard drives I'm using have different names.
Thanks for your time!

QT Pro 7.6 image sequencing aperture exports - only reads first file

I'm exporting versions (jpg) of files that are originally Nikon raw (NEF) format.
I'm testing with a bunch of images that were grabbed using the camera's continuous mode - want to make sure the system works before doing any real playing with time lapse.
I have a folder with the images - all named image01.jpg, image02.jpg etc etc. No other files in the folder.
Open QT Pro 7.6 - choose Open Image Sequence and select the first image.
It asks for the frames per second.
Whatever i pick - it creates a single frame movie with the first image in the set.
I've tested with two different exports - same issue.
Any hints?

OK - tried this.
For a short test - I have 22 files.

Now - when they were called image01, image02 etc I got a 1sec movie with only the first image.
Now - with these names - I get a movie of the correct duration (so - for example - 2 frames a sec yields an 11 sec movie) but with only the first shot shown (in other words I get to see the first jpg for 11 secs in the 2/s example.
The file command tells me that they are "JPEG image data, JFIF standard 1.01"

Convert one file many chapters to many files one 'book' easily??

Hello,
I work for a charity that publishes books, we've just converted 3 of our books in to Ebooks.
We are used to working with all the text/chapters etc in one big file but had to split this into different files for each chapter in order for the ebook to have them seperately and a correct TOC etc.
Did this by just copying and pasting etc over and over. Time consuming, but not unbearable.
We've got a book which is a years worth of readings which we'd possibly like to make into an ebook, this would ideally mean 365 different chapters.
Wondering if there's some quick/convenient way or progamme/plug-in to split my one file into lots of different files [ie a new file for each day]???
[Still using InDesign CS3 on an Intel Mac OS x10.5 – upgrading to CS5 next month]
Thanks
Simon

Cripes...I hear you...I have an applescript which searches for the column break symbol and split the story from that...
If you are changing over to CS5 next month. Then I'd wait until thenif I were you...
CS5 will split the ebpub according to Paragraph styles, without the need for a custom script.
i.e ChapterHeadstyle etc...
Much easier, and also if there are any images in the job CS5 will NOT duplicate the entries on the content.OPF file, which CS3 does and is a nightmare to remove

Photoshop enlarges all open files when I magnify a file. How can i get it to only magnify one file

When I use the magnifying glass to enlarge my file in photoshop cs3, all of my open files magnify at the same time. I only want one of them to enlarge. This started happening when I bought a new Macbook pro and installed OSX10.6.5. Does anyone know how I can fix it so only the file I am working on enlarges? sometimes I want to compare a smaller file to a larger file and I can no longer do that in Photoshop.

Hello Gtarka,
There is an option on the Zoom tool to "Zoom All Windows". This is just a check mark in the tool options bar, next to the "Resize Windows To Fit" option, directly under the Menu bar. Simply deselect this option.

Photoshop Action That Only Opens One File Type

I want to create an action that only opens one particular file type, performs some changes to it, then finds all the others of that file type. I can do everything else and use the Image Processor to run it, but I can't find any way to tell the action to only open .GIF files and ignore everything else. Am I just missing something obvious?
Thanks,
Andacar

Another possibilty besides perhaps using a script, is if you have the latest photoshop cs6 version from the cloud, which allows conditional actions.
However, since i'm not on the creative cloud i don't know, but maybe someone else that does have the cloud version can comment.
added: doesn't appear so for the new conditionals

Ipad only uses one file name when uploading images via email

We have an image tool that uploads images to a template website. The problem is the file names for these images must be unique any duplicate file names will be rejected. Some of our users want to be able to upload from the field but Ipad only assigns the file name "photo.JPG" to jpegs. It doesn't seem to include the sequential extension that actually does exist for the image on the file name when uploading. Is there a way to get ipad to do so, or is this something that Apple maybe want to consider looking into. I can easily see the average Joe emailing themselves images and hitting save only to replace and lose an older image because let's face it, not all users are on MACs and PC's do not allow multiple files to have the same file name in the same folder.

Hi,
Based on the description, you could send email to external addresses without the Twin Oaks software. However, with the Twin Oaks software, you couldn't send successfully.
For this issue, I recommend you enable message tracking and check whether you could retrieve message tracking log entires when you send emails to external addresses through the Twin Oaks software.
If you couldn't retrieve message these tracking log entires when you send emails to external addresses through the Twin Oaks software, it means that the Exchange server is OK and the crux of the problem is the Twin Oaks software.
Here is an article about message tracking log for your reference.
