Kuler desktop now available!

Longed for the kuler Dashboard Widget but you were running
Windows? Using the Widget already but curious about Apollo?
The kuler desktop is built in Apollo so it is cross-platform.
Like the Widget, it displays RSS feeds of color themes from kuler,
executes theme searches, and lets you easily copy hex values from
any theme to your clipboard.
To download the latest Apollo runtime and kuler desktop file,
go to the
kuler Links page. Install
Apollo first, then the kuler desktop.
Curious about Apollo? Learn more about why Adobe is
developing the Apollo platform
here.
Apollo-specific discussion should be posted on the
Apollo
Forum.
We look forward to your feedback. Enjoy!
Sami

kay, here we go:
I get the Apollo Runtime here
http://download.macromedia.com/pub/labs/air/air_b1_win_061107.exe
The AIR Package (I assume this is the application) here
http://download.macromedia.com/pub/labs/kuler/kuler_desktop_061007.air
but what's this for
http://kuler.adobe.com/links/download.cfm?linkFile=kuler_desktop_060607.air
the last one looks the same as the AIR Package (the 2nd
download link) but does not contain any AIR files, only pngs and
xml stuff.

  • Filr Desktop 1.0.2 now available

    Novell Filr Desktop 1.0.2 is available for download. This is an
    important milestone for Filr and exciting news for those who rely on
    the Filr desktop client.
    We've updated the Windows and Mac clients with the following
    enhancements:
    Event-driven file synchronization simplifies the sync process. Only
    the files changed since your last login will sync, meaning that your
    files will finish updating sooner, and will use less of your computer's
    horsepower.
    Built-in dialogs that simplify collaboration and data sharing. Rather
    than opening up a web browser each time you want to share a file or
    opening a file to comment on it, you can now simply right-click on the
    file and do this from your desktop.
    Simple file properties summary that doesn't just let you see when a
    file was last modified. From the File Properties, you can also see who
    the file is shared with, who created a file and who modified it. In
    addition, if you don't see someone on the list of people the file is
    shared with, you can easily add them from the same place.
    Sharing policies that simplify an administrator's job by
    prepopulating the Filr server and user account information and
    preselecting which folders users have access to.

  • Sun Java 3D looking glass now available - Package ?

    Hi,
    justread the following:
    https://lg3d-core.dev.java.net/lg3ddevelopersguide.html
    Project Looking Glass Open Source
    Sun Microsystems is contributing Project Looking Glass, based on Java(tm) technology, to the open source community. Project Looking Glass is an exploration project to bring innovative 3D features to the desktop environment. The desktop interface will offer an intuitive, new 3D environment to interact with desktop applications featuring window transparency, rotation, zoom, multiple desktop workspaces and miniaturization.Project Looking Glass offers a platform to realize far richer and more entertaining user experience for existing and new applications in 2D or 3D. The technology enables developers to build highly visual 3D desktops and applications that will run on Linux systems such as Sun's Java Desktop System. The Solaris(tm) environment will be supported in near future.
    What does this mean to you?
    If you're a software developer, please go to http://enews.sun.com/CTServlet?id=63058 … 8531213971 and download this early version of the code and join the community in developing the 3D desktop.
    Interested in using the Project Looking Glass? The project is in very early stages and a commercial version is not available yet. Please go to http://enews.sun.com/CTServlet?id=63058 … 8531213990 to keep up to date on our progress.
    Why Open Source?
    Project Looking Glass is in its infancy, and we'd like to explore lots of ideas and possibilities.  We're releasing the Project Looking Glass code to the whole community to explore every aspect of the technology rather than restricting access to a privileged few. We believe this open development is an excellent model to pursue this exciting and vast opportunity.  So, your involvement is eagerly anticipated. We believe new dimension of developer innovation by making Sun's cutting edge technology available at Sun's 3D Desktop Technology Open Source Project on java.net.
    We have been working for several months on cleaning the software up, providing basic features and functionality key to 3D window management. A key focus was looking at the existing 2D desktop applications, ensuring minimal compatibility and performance problems. The next step is to look what else we can do to foster real world 3D interactivity. We decided to open source this at a very early stage to ensure that we got good feedback from the community.
    What's in the Open Source Project?
    The following features are now available in the Project Looking Glass open source release:
    3D Window Manager Platform - Java 3D based highly scalable 3D platform with client-server model support.
    3D Window Manager and Application Development API - Java API to develop new 3D desktop applications and 3D desktop Window Manager features.
    Native Application Integration Module - Allows developers to run conventional X11 applications in the 3D environment.
    Sample 3D Window Manager - provides a simple sample implementation for testing and demonstration purposes
    3D Environment Lite - Enables developers to run a simplified 3D environment as an application on a Java 3D enabled platform including Linux and Solaris environments. This serves as a development tool to test implementations.
    This is all available at: http://enews.sun.com/CTServlet?id=63058 … 8531213971
    What's the licensing model?
    There are three license choices for developers interested in creating applications using Project Looking Glass.
    For developers who are interested in reviewing, revising, and redistributing the source code as part of their own application, Project Looking Glass has been submitted as an Open Source project on java.net under the GNU Public License, or GPL.
    For developers who are interested in developing an application on top of the existing Project Looking Glass platform without reviewing and/or altering the code base, there is a binary version of the current state of the project available for download under a traditional Binary Code License. This is also available on java.net.
    Finally, for developers or organizations interested in other uses or revising the source code but wish to keep their implementation and related application proprietary, please contact Sun at [email protected].

    Hi everyone from the Build 2015 conference happening right now in San Francisco! If you haven’t already, check out Terry’s blog post about all the Windows 10 announcements we made today. If you’re at Build this week or at Ignite in Chicago next week – keep your eye out for me and say hello!
    Today we have a new build available to both the Fast and Slow ring for Windows Insiders (that means we’ll have ISOs available too for those of you who like a clean install.) With this build we continue to evolve the features and design for Windows 10, and you’ll see a lot of subtle changes and improvements, many of which were influenced directly by Windows Insiders. One of those changes is the reintroduction of some Aero Glass elements in the UI, but there are many more things throughout the product as well. We continue to use your feedback directly day to day in how our feature teams operate, and we hope that Windows 10 will be the best version of Windows yet because you had a direct hand in its creation.
    One other subtle change that you’ll notice is that we’ve changed how we talk about the builds from “Technical Preview” to “Insider Preview” to reflect the importance of the Windows Insider community in how we’re building Windows 10.
    And speaking of Windows Insiders, we were super excited to host the 10 winners of our Windows Insiders to Campus contest in Redmond last week and hear their thoughts on the program and the product. We’ll share more on that soon.
    Here is what’s newSome of the things that Joe demoed on stage earlier today during the Build keynote are not yet included in this build and will be in future builds. But we still have a bunch of new stuff for you to check out!
    General UX improvements: We made a bunch of UX improvements with the last build and you’ll see even more in this build. For example, you’ll notice a new Live Tile animation for Start in addition to in addition to some performance and stability improvements for Live Tiles.
    We’ve done work to better support high DPI displays. And we know many Windows Insiders are running multi-mon setups – often with 2 monitors with different DPI. You will start to see some work we’re doing to make sure core UX components in Windows scale correctly on both your monitors so things look nice regardless of DPI.
    We’ve also heard loud in clear that many Windows Insiders want to see Aero Glass from Windows 7 make a comeback. We’ve been working out how to satisfy this request, and are trying some things out with this build to see how you like them. We’re running a little A/B test with this build. 50% of you will normal transparency on the Start menu and taskbar while the other 50% will see a blur effect on the Start menu and taskbar (like frosted glass). If Windows Insiders really like the blur effect, we will add it to more areas and even consider making it the default instead of standard transparency. Which one did you get? Send us feedback about it via the Windows Feedback app!
    Even more improvements to Continuum: We’re continuing to make Continuum better and invest in a simplified taskbar. Additionally when you close an application in Tablet mode, we take you back to the Start screen instead of the desktop as you would expect when using a tablet. You will see general polish on snapping, and the shared divider between two snapped windows now let’s you adjust the size.
    Multi-tasking improvements: We’re continuing to refine and complete our mulit-tasking experience with Windows 10. Check out Alt-Tab, Task-View, and Snap Assist. Snap Assist also now supports the ability to close a window during Snap Assist.
    New default Windows sounds: We’ve heard a lot of feedback from people that they want some fresh system sounds for Windows 10. Check them out and let us know what you think.
    Visual refresh for Cortana: You will see a visual refresh for Cortana in this build that makes the experience feel more ingrained into the overall Windows experience. Start and Cortana are now more tightly integrated. As you start to search for an app from within Start, Cortana can seamlessly take over and bring back the right result. The new Windows split view control has been added to Cortana’s left rail, offering quick access to key Cortana functionality like the Notebook, Reminders or Feedback on how Cortana’s doing. This split view control helps anchor Cortana to the rest of the Windows UI and provides navigation consistent with many other Windows first party applications.
    New experiences in Cortana: We are making available some new and updated experiences in Cortana powered by Bing Instant Answers. Cortana will aim to answer your question while you’re still typing. Here are a few questions you can try:
    Weather – “Seattle Weather”
    Finance – “MSFT stock”
    Dictionary – “define astounding”
    Calculator – “48*92”
    Flight Status – “UA 238”
    Reference – “how tall is brad pitt”
    Showtimes – “movies near me”
    Tech Help – “memory in my computer”
    Time Zone – “time in London”
    Unit Conversion – “42 ft in meters”
    Chit Chat – “tell me a joke”
    Updates for the Music and Video Preview apps: We’ve also shipped updates to these apps. The Music Preview app (3.6.999.0) has some UX improvements including a more immersive Now Playing experience with a true full screen mode. With the Video Preview app (3.6.999.0) – you can download movies, TV shows, and TV seasons and check progress, pause, resume, cancel the download. You can also download, delete, and even re-download videos as many times as you want on up to three devices (we’re planning to increase the number of devices you can download content too!). Closed captioning for purchased content now appears. You will see a list of new features when you first launch these app after each update!
    Xbox app April 2015 update: The Xbox app for Windows 10 has been updated (your version number should be 4.4.9014.0 or higher) with new features like Game DVR for PC games, screenshots, a Live Tile, user profiles, and real-name sharing. Oh and the drivers for Xbox controllers are now included with Windows 10, so you no longer have to download and install controller drivers on Windows 10. For more on this month’s Xbox app for Windows 10 update as well as the new Avatars app – read this blog post.
    Windows Store Beta improvements: We’re excited about delivering a single unified Store experience in Windows 10 which we’re talking more about this week at Build. We’ve made some improvements to the Store Beta which is now a blue tile instead of grey. Xbox Live games should be working and so are in-app purchases. Apps you purchased on a PC running Windows 8.1 will now show up in the Store Beta on Windows 10 as owned (and vice-versa). We’re also expanding the Store Beta from 41 markets with the addition of these new markets: Afghanistan, Åland Islands, Albania, Algeria, American Samoa, Andorra, Angola, Anguilla, Antarctica, Antigua and Barbuda, Armenia, Aruba, Azerbaijan, The Bahamas, Bangladesh, Barbados, Belize, Benin, Bermuda, Bahrain, Bhutan, Bolivia, Bonaire, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Botswana, Bouvet Island, Cyprus, Dominican Republic, El Salvador, Georgia, Ghana, Guatemala, Iceland, Iraq, Kazakhstan, Malta, Pakistan, Qatar, Sri Lanka, Jordan, Lebanon, Nicaragua, Oman, Panama, Puerto Rico, Paraguay, Trinidad and Tobago, Uganda, Venezuela.
    Discovering features and apps in Windows 10: We are investing in easy “bite-sized” learning and discovery experiences so that users can get more out of Windows 10. This ranges from tips and tricks on the Lock screen, to helping users discover high quality apps through Start, the Lock screen and Cortana. Be confident that you won’t miss out on new features and enjoy the ease of having high quality apps curated for you. It’s optional, and if anything doesn’t strike your fancy, you can provide feedback directly, such as whether you like an image or an app. These new experiences will be rolling out over time, so you may not see them in your market yet.
    Here are some things we fixed
    You can now launch Win32 (desktop) apps from the Start menu again. Sorry about this bug!
    You should be able to download music in the Xbox Music and Music Preview apps.
    When you minimize an app playing audio, it should continue playing in the background.
    Here are some known issues
    Developers cannot enable Developer Mode in the Settings app for installing and testing apps on this build. We’ll enable this in an upcoming build. In the meantime, you will need enable your device for development using the Group Policy Editor.
    There is an issue in this build preventing some games from playing in full screen mode. We’re working to get a fix out via WU as soon as possible.
    The People app continues to crash. We’re planning to release an update for the People app through the Store Beta that fixes this.
    We hope you’ll agree that 10074 has some nice improvements and is another step forward towards delivering a great Windows 10 release. Please put it through the paces and keep sending us feedback on the things that you like and the things you want us to keep working on using the Windows Feedback app. I hope that you’ll also download the development tools released at Build and will build some terrific Universal Windows apps as well!
    Thanks,

  • New version of the LabHSM Toolkit for Complex Event-Driven Development is Now Available!

    A new version of the unique toolkit is now available for download. As announced earlier, LabHSM makes it possible to easily create and then maintain complex event-driven applications in LabVIEW as a collection of HSM-driven active object VIs using a higher level of abstraction and agile software development methodologies. These active object VIs are created based on a universal Hierarchical State Machine ( HSM or statechart ) template. Therefore, all your code looks similar regardless of its functionality!
    So, what’s new in version 1.1?
    • "No hands" block diagram modifications! Version 1.1 actually creates, renames, and removes actions on the block diagram as you define, rename, and remove them in the editor! (No, it can't fill in all the details for you, but it can do some, if you think ahead, by replicating similar actions.)
    • Two new screens, Events Usage and Actions Usage, (available in licensed copies only) clearly show where (in which state(s)/transition(s)) and how (is it an entry action, exit action or event handling action?) a particular event or action is used. Moreover, if after selecting an instance on the list, the Go To button is pressed, it makes the main screen jump to respective location in the HSM structure. In the case of Actions Usage screen, the respective action is also displayed on the block diagram. Thus, these screens provide two more different cross-sections of the HSM data set and two additional ways to navigate it – now along the Actions and Events dimensions too instead of just the state tree in the first version.
    • Version 1.1 can duplicate events or actions, which helps when you've got several that are similar. Changes in the events and actions lists are reflected immediately on the main screen and on the block diagram (which solves the previous problem of deleting a renamed event or action when it's still in use).
    • The Events and Actions List Editors are no longer modal and neither are the Events and Actions Usage screens, so you can have all the panels and the block diagram visible and move freely among them as you build your HSM (a good argument for an even larger monitor).
    • When you save an HSM file, version 1.1 automatically adds the .hsm extension if you leave it out and it remembers the last directory you used.
    • The Loaded VIs utility now can open and close block diagrams (if they are not protected with a password) and display only VIs with modal front panels, if desired—useful for quickly finding and closing accidentally opened (e.g., from the hierarchy window) modal VIs. Make a modal version of this utility and keep it on the Desktop for this purpose.
    • A new example of a simple hierarchical state machine and two more excellent tutorials from Paul F. Sullivan (SULLutions.com) are included into the package. The tutorials are also available online. The overview article has also been extended.
    As before, the LabHSM toolkit is available for UNLIMITED PERIOD trial. Please visit http://www.labhsm.com for details and download. The site also contains references which you may want to check to learn more about hierarchical state machines and active object computing.

    I am not really sure if Azure support this but its worth to make your configuration file to support .NET 4.0
    $PShome\PowerShell_ISE.CONFIG and $PSHOME\PowerShell.exe.config will be not existing.
    So you can make an entry in configuration to support .NET framework 4.0
    like shown below
    $config_text = @"
    <?xml version="1.0"?>
    <configuration>
    <startup useLegacyV2RuntimeActivationPolicy="true">
    <supportedRuntime version="v4.0.30319"/>
    <supportedRuntime version="v2.0.50727"/>
    </startup>
    </configuration>
    $config_text| Out-File $pshome\powershell.exe.config
    $config_text| Out-File $pshome\powershell_ise.exe.config
    Close PowerShell Console and open as administrator.
    Try loading the modules back and let me know.

  • Updated "Selecting the Best Compiler Options" now available

    The technical article "Selecting the Best Compiler Options" by Darryl Gove has been updated for Sun Studio 12 Update 1 and is now available at:
    http://developers.sun.com/sunstudio/documentation/techart/compiler_flags/
    Here's the abstract:
    +This article suggests how to get the best performance from an
    UltraSPARC or x86/EMT64 (x64) processor running on the latest Solaris
    platforms by compiling with the best set of compiler options and the
    latest compilers. These are suggestions of things you should try, but
    before you release the final version of your program, you should
    understand exactly what you have asked the compiler to do.+

    Ok sorry I've taken so long to respond.  The reply button wouldn't pop up for me to reply!
    There was never a dialog box asking for me to select the program from installed programs when I open the pdf from outlook express.  But when I opened a pdf from my desktop it asked that question and I had it "always use this program to open this type of file." So I assumed that it was would work when opening from outlook express.  But it doesn't.
    I've tried unclicking the protected mode button under the preferences general section.  And finally I'm not sure how to post screenshots of the attachment thumbnail and dialog.  I'm looking all over my keyboard for a button to push I don't have a clue as to what to do!  I do have a print Scr button but when I click on it nothing happens.  I've tried holding down the shift key and the button and the alt key and print scr button but nothing happens.
    Could it be that somehow it's not recognizing ARCO.EXCH.DOCUMENT as that's what it thinks the type of document is?
    I've already created an association for pdf files and it'll open them on my desktop, just not in outlook express.

  • Native Adobe Content Viewer for Android is now available!

    The native Adobe Content Viewer is now available in Google Play for your downloading pleasure. Grab it here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.adobe.dps.contentviewer. The legacy air viewer is still available at https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=air.com.adobe.contentviewer.
    Note that in this first release your sign in will automatically expire after 30 minutes. We realize this is a bit of a pain but wanted to get the viewer out for people rather than waiting even longer to add auto-renew of the credentials. We’ll get this taken care of with our next update, due in about three weeks.
    Enjoy!

    Installation works flawlessly. So far I've only been testing with the normal desktop preview. Now I wanna try the preview function for android (I think the previous version didn't work, right?) from the folio overlay panel but I cannot seem to find my Nexus 10 device even though I am logged in with the same account on both InDesign and the Nexus 10. Any ideas what I could be doing wrong?
    Nevermind I got it to work. But how do I update my folio once I uploaded it to the folio producer?
    Also there's something that I'd like to achieve now.
    The content viewer browser version (checked via whatismybrowser.com) is:
    Chrome 30
    Version 3.0.0.0
    Webkit 537.36
    The installed chrome is:
    Chrome 32
    Version 32.0.1700.99
    Webkit 537.36
    The 32 version has WebGL enabled or rather it works better. By default only the normal WebGL features are enabled in Chrome. The experimental WebGL features (found under chrome://flags/) have to be activated manually. I suppose the WebM view of the viewer doesn't have these enabled. Can I enable these fancy features somehow?

  • Windows SteadyState 2.5 Is Now Available!

    Windows SteadyState 2.5 Is Now Available!
    We are pleased to announce the release of Windows SteadyState 2.5, available in 9 languages from the Microsoft Shared Access Site:  
    http://www.microsoft.com/sharedaccess
    Providing solutions to help manage shared computers has been a consistent request from partners, end users around the world.  Microsoft has a very compelling solution with SteadyState enabling our shared access partners to protect shared access computers by cleaning the system with every restart, making them easier to manage and protect. It also restricts users from accessing system settings and data, preventing inadvertent or malicious damage, and thus, improving the up time of these PCs.
    Besides offering excellent desktop security, SteadyState is user-friendly and reliable, it reduces downtime, is easy to maintain, and is free of charge to genuine Windows XP and Windows Vista customers.
    SteadyState is a great solution for schools, libraries, families, internet cafés, telecenters, rural kiosks, and community centers, providing better computer access to underserved markets where non-technical managers are often responsible for shared computers.
    New features in SteadyState version 2.5 include the following:
    •       Full support for Windows Vista
    •       Full support for Internet Explorer 7 and tabbed browsing
    •       Overall improved performance
    •       Faster booting
    •       Faster system caching
    •       Remote management of Windows Disk Protection through scripting
    •       Improved importing & exporting  of user information
    To learn more, or download SteadyState 2.5 go to:
     http://www.microsoft.com/sharedaccess

    I have a major gripe about the instructions for SteadyState.  I have gone over the handbook and each and every time I read it, I come back with more questions than answers.  Very frustrating.  I have two major issues I would like to resolve. 
    The first is that when I imaged drive when SteadyState was installed, I could not open my Sophos anti-virus any longer with the admin account.  I kept getting message saying I was not part of Sophos Administrator group, which I was.  I even removed
    and re-added my user to the group, and it did nothing.  Uninstalling did not let me in either.  What a nightmare!  What good is it to install something if I cannot do something as simple as opening an installed program to check settings or quarantine? 
    Second major issue is the whole ambiguosly confusing explanation of User accounts in the handbook.  What a crock!  If I set up the computer, add the users and setup each profile before installing SteadyState, then install SteadyState, there should
    be no User restrictions except what I say after the install.  For instance, I only tell SteadyState to not allow users to save to C:\ drive.  That should mean any user, non-admin, should not be able to save to the drive.  Period.  When
    reading the handbook, it goes on and on about shared users, shared accounts, blah blah blah.  Do I have to go into SteadyState and change User accounts no matter what?  If so, that seems like a real nightmare to setup over and over.  Does that
    mean with that simple protection setting of no saving to drive, I need to also go and create User accounts in SteadyState as well so I can do something as simple as having the desktop wallpaper from the original setup show up for the user?  Will
    the screen saver settings stay the same, or do I have to go into SteadyState and change that as well in User settings?  Which, of course, will create a whole new profile for the user, which is NOT what everyone really wants.  Can't we just install
    SteadyState and say no saving to drive and leave the disk protection, etc. off and be done with it?  It sure does not seem like it.  Maybe we are just idiots here, but it is no help whatsoever for me to read this handbook again.  Since one cannot
    talk to someone for free, not sure what else to do.  We used this software before for 66 computers in one of our labs, and after installation, we wanted to simplify the setup as much as possible due to continual issues with users not being able to do
    this and that even though they were supposed to have "permission" to do so.  No internet on these machines, just wanted to prevent users from saving to drive to prevent drive filling up and to allow the drivers we installed on admin account to work when
    non-admin user plugged in USB equipment into port.

    DPS on Windows 8.1 is pure genius on the part of the DPS team. On a tablet
    it’s all about touch of course, but on a desktop or laptop it works
    beautifully with keyboard and mouse.
    For a sample of it, download Adobe’s Inspire Magazine app from the Windows

  • File sync returns and Typekit font sync now available!

    File sync within the Creative Cloud desktop app is back!  And font sync is now available for the first time.
    Looks like it is rolling out gradually. You can register at http://blogs.adobe.com/creativecloud/file-and-typekit-font-sync-rolling-out/
    And here's an email I received about it:

    That is correct.  This functionality is being rolled out incrementally - that is, some folks will receive access to this first (in fact, some already have it now), and others will be added as soon as we can.
    If you have not received an email similar to the one above, and you want to get early access to these functions, follow the link on the Creative Cloud Team Blog to sign up for the program.  Details are there.

  • Kuler Desktop Issues

    Hello,
    If you tried to use (or download) Kuler AIR Desktop today,
    December 11th, 2008, it's likely that you experienced issues. We're
    aware of the problem and are working on a fix. We will have a
    solution available soon. We apologize for any inconvenience this
    may have caused you.
    As always, thank you for your continued support.
    Best regards,
    The Kuler Team

    I've uninstalled Kuler Desktop and reinstalled using the 12dec08 Kuler.air package. Kuler Desktop runs fine under the Mac admin user I set up to install applications, but when I log into my usual unpriviledged user, I get the previous 'kuler content- Sorry, no items were found.' message. The X close button doesn't seem to work and I have to force quit the Kuler Desktop application.
    I don't seem to be able to locate the Apple Dashboard Widget for Kuler. Does it still exist?
    I'm on Mac OS X 10.5.6 on a 2GHz Intel Core 2 Duo Mac Mini with 2GB Ram
    Adobe AIR is the latest installation (.dmg file dated 18Feb09)  fwiw I could only install Adobe AIR using the admin user login.
    Any ideas what to try next?
    Thanks,
    Sayling
