Lay of the land - Microsoft convert

To start - sorry for the newbie post. Feed free to FAQ me if that's what I deserve.
Looks like my company is going to be adopting BO soon. I have been working with microsoft products for the past couple of years. I see things that compare to sharepoint, excel, and reporting services.. but what I don't see evidence of is a dimensional engine & design tools. I know that it exists but amidst all the business talk I am not finding it. Can someone please point it out to me and let me know how the divide works between dimensional and relational for BO.
Also is there any way that I can setup an environment to play with reporting and dimensional database construction tools on my pc in order to get a feel for things asap?
What is a typical divide between an SAP/Microsoft shop? Do you write ASP.NET applications that query a BO source?
Thanks!
Ken

Hello Ken,
Your questions are interesting, but way too involved for a forum post.
I'd recommend going through your SAP sales rep to get the required architectural and SDK overview.
Sincerely,

Can the online PDF converter convert secure PDFs to Word format?

I have a PDF with copy protection set. Will the online PDF converter still convert it to Word format?

Amplifying George's reply:
Will Adobe ExportPDF convert any type of PDF file?
Adobe ExportPDF will convert the vast majority of PDF files available today, including PDF files containing scanned documents.
There are a few types of PDF files that cannot be converted, however.
These include, but are not limited to,
PDF Portfolios,
PDF files that require a password to open the document, or
PDF files that have permissions applied to prevent copying, or altering of the content.
ExportPDF is also not capable of converting hand-written documents to Microsoft Office, due to the non-standard nature of each individual's handwriting.

What is the point in converting type to shapes rather than just flattening at required resolution?

Ok, this may sound like a stupid question. Lets say I'm designing a trifold in Photoshop. The printer requests that designs be done at a resolution of 300dpi.
What is the point in converting all type to shapes prior to saving or embedding fonts when I can just flatten my entire design at 300dpi? Isn't that what the print shop is going to do anyway...just flatten my design? Or do they print type at a higher resolution than the raster portions of the design? This has confused me for too long. I hope someone can clear this up. Thanks

The core of the bad advice is telling you to rasterize all your type. In light of this bad advice, the fact that they're saying 300ppi does make sense, because the last thing they want are images @ 2400ppi!
That been said, Photoshop is never the right tool for most text applications anyway, even though it does support vector output (to a point, and with some issues that are sometimes problematic to get around). If you have larger text that needs to be integrated into the image, or effected with Photoshop filters, etc. that's one thing, but if you're laying out paragraph text / body copy / lyrics and liner notes for a CD, etc. then you should be using Illustrator or InDesign -- an app that is designed to handle vector text and objects.
re: online printers: sorry, I haven't used any as of yet. I do have a couple of one-off book projects I'm going to send to Lulu, and a friend here in work uses Overnight Prints and seems pretty happy with them. But aside of that, I can't really offer any specific recommendations. Hopefully someone else can chime in here.

Where can I get the latest Microsoft.SharePoint.ApplicationPages.dll for SharePoint 2010?

Can somebody point me to where I can get the latest Microsoft.SharePoint.ApplicationPages.dll for SharePoint 2010?
When I go into Library Settings on any library or list in SharePoint 2010 I’m getting an unexpected error; I see this in the SharePoint log:

We noticed exactly the same issue after applying some SharePoint updates (SP1 + October 2011 CU). The problem turned out to be that there was an older version (V14.0.4762.1000) of Microsoft.SharePoint.ApplicationPages.dll in the GAC.
This version was being loaded instead of the latest version of the DLL (14.0.6112.5000).
Loading the latest version of Microsoft.SharePoint.ApplicationPages.dll fixed the problem with the List/Library settings page.
I check our Microsoft.SharePoint.ApplicationPages.dll and found that we have version 14.0.6024.1000.
I would like to try replacing it with the latest version to see if that could fix the problem going into library settings.
Does someone know where I can get the latest Microsoft.SharePoint.ApplicationPages.dll for SharePoint 2010?

You would need to extract it from an update. Pre-SP2 SharePoint 2010 is no longer supported, I'd recommend upgrading to SP2 which should take care of any versioning issues.

The type or namespace name 'VisualStudio' does not exist in the namespace 'Microsoft' (are you missing an assembly reference?)

we are using VS 2013. i have created new build definition and run that created build its getting failed and showing error message as "The type or namespace name 'VisualStudio' does not exist in the namespace 'Microsoft' (are you missing an assembly
reference?)" and "The type or namespace name 'WinComboBox, UITestControl, WinTitleBar.....etc' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)". in the error log is showing the error number are "error CS0234
& error CS0246".
Actually i have created build for automation execution from MTM lab environment. i have to assign the build to the test plan. once the build is passed , i will assign to the test plan and run with automation options.
if i build the solution its getting successfully build. but when i run the created build definition it show the error message's.
Could you guide me how to resolve the above error's ?
Thanks in Advance...

Hello Divakar Ponnada,
I have checked the error CS0234 from here:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/0e92xd7b.aspx
It means your project cannot find the proper reference to your type "Visual Studio" from the namespace Microsoft.
May I ask this question, does your build definition means something like the following blog described?
http://www.asp.net/web-forms/overview/deployment/configuring-team-foundation-server-for-web-deployment/creating-a-build-definition-that-supports-deployment
"A build definition is the mechanism that controls how and when builds occur for team projects in TFS. "
If that is the problem, may I ask whether your build agent is in the same machine where you build your application?
The build agent will first search for the reference from its local GAC and if it cannot find it, the error like you said will reports. Please manually build your project from your build agent machine to see the result, or install Visual Studio to your build
agent machine. In that way I think your problem may fixed.
Best regards,
Barry

I have Photoshop CS2 vsn 9.0 with the Camera Raw 3.7 update and the Digital Negative Converter. I cannot open any RAW files. Does the fact that I've opened them in Lightroom 5.0 before make a difference?

When I try to open the RAW file (CR2) from the Photoshop application or from the Bridge (even while holding down the shift key) I get a message saying it's not the right kind of file. When I try to convert using the converter, it won't recognize the files.

Which operating system are you using?
Which camera are the camera raw files from?
Did you convert the files to dng using lightroom or the standalone dng converter?
If using the standalone dng converter, which version?
In the dng converter did you try setting the Compatibility for Camera Raw 2.4 and later
(Preferences>Compatibility)
You should also be able to send the files from lightroom to cs2 without converting to dng, either by using Photo>Edit In>Photoshop or setting cs2 as an external editor in the lightroom preferences

Why do I have constant static on one tv and now the land line has the same thing

I have had static on one tv for I forget how long. The tv is on the highest volume possible and some stations you can hear and others have a constant buzzing sound. Now the land line has a constant static as well. Granted the land line is an old fashioned push button phone but it has been fine for two years now. I have a smart phone and never bothered to get a cordless, but this should have nothing to do iwth the static I now have on the land line. The tv could be the speakers but why is it different from channel to channel. Paying what we all pay, our land lines, internet and cable should be working properly.

On that TV that's low, try this:
To control the speaker volume of the motorola box itself:
1) Press and hold the AT&T button on the remote
2) Press the "OK" button and release it and the AT&T key at the same time. All the universal lights will flash twice.
3) Type 955. The AT&T key will flash twice
4) Press "Enter"
Now you can turn your motorola box all the way up. Once you get it set how you want, we need to set the remote back to control the TV volume instead of the motorola box. To do that:
1) Press and hold the AT&T button on the remote
2) Press the "OK" button and release it and the AT&T key at the same time. All the universal lights will flash twice.
3) Type 955. The AT&T key will flash twice
4) Press "TV". The TV light will flash twice
All of this is assuming that the TV button on your remote is already programmed to control your TV.
Good luck
Chris

Trying to download 10. itunes, however I keep getting this error message "An error occured during the assembly "Microsoft VC80.CRT, version =8.0.50727.4053",type ="win32",publickey Tokens="1fc8b3b9a1e18e3b",process orArchitecture="x86"

Hi,
I am trying to download the latest 10.0 itunes, however I keep getting this error message. I have a new iphone 4s so when I plugged it into the laptop it said i need to uninstall and reinstall the latest itunes.
I contacted support which they advised me to uninstall the itunes on my dell laptop, which I have done however I keep getting the same error message. "An error occured during the assembly "Microsoft VC80.CRT, version =8.0.50727.4053",type ="win32",publickey Tokens="1fc8b3b9a1e18e3b",process orArchitecture="x86". Please refer to help and support for more information. HRESULT: 0x800736FD.
Please can you advise on what best to do? The laptop is a 32bit windows 7.

HRESULT: 0x800736FD.
These ones are typically caused by underlying problems on the PC that also often cause Windows Updates to fail to install. If we can fix the Windows Update trouble, we can usually get the iTunes trouble cleaned up en passant.
Go into your Windows update and try to check for new updates. If updates install, stock up on the ones you're behind on, restarting the PC if requested to do so. After the restart, try installing iTunes again. Does it go through this time for you?
If windows updates fail to install, go into your Update History and doubleclick the failures. What alphanumeric codes appear for you? Are they also 800736fd, or some other number? (If they're another number, what number are you getting?)

Reporting annoying issues for the entire Microsoft website (MSDN, forums, all)

Is there any place where I can report bugs with how the Microsoft web sites behave? I can only find forums and "Microsoft Answers" categories about single products that Microsoft makes, but nothing about the infrastructure itself.
For about two weeks now, I am required to log into my account every few hours whenever I access any Microsoft website. This includes MSDN help content, forums, or other resources. I need to login after opening the website through F1 help in Visual Studio
as well as accessing a microsoft.com link from anywhere else like a web search or a direct link from web or an application.
Auto-complete does not work either. My browser (Firefox) does save the password, but it never fills it into the form. Other people have already noticed that
Microsoft applies some dirty tricks here. And even if the login is remembers for a moment, it's slow as hell. It takes a second or two to load the login.live.com page (which is not what I wanted to see), then it sits there for some more seconds before going
anywhere. Other login services like Google or StackOverflow manage to log me in all within one second and most of the time I don't even see it.
And then there's still that insecure SSL-to-non-SSL-submit warning that only occurs in other browsers then IE. Has anybody cared about that in the last couple years?! I'm not getting it now, probably because I'm not logged in anymore. It all slowly falls
apart, piece by piece. Next step is probably losing my data or not loading it at all.
THIS – IS – ANNOYING! And it really makes me feel like I don't want to use Microsoft products anymore (because even good desktop applications are connected to that silly website). I have opened a
Microsoft Connect ticket for a part of this issue (it's grown bigger since then), but this ticket is totally ignored. If microsoft.com went down, they'd certainly care within minutes or hours. This bug is not even regarded in
weeks!
So do I have to write a postal letter to the president of the whole company or do they have support staff for that?! Do they have anybody who is capable of maintaining their website? It's really frustrating how Microsoft has a web presence that is worse
than what our first-year trainees come up with. It's full of bugs and this is currently only the most relevant one. Do they even care about how the world sees them? Or is Microsoft currently preparing (and even failing) to move out of business?

The brandings are fun. Here's this same thread in a bunch of flavors:

Just setting up iCloud on my iMac 10.9.2, my problem is when trying to sign out/off from iCloud it comes up with a verification code that is being sent to my land line, I'd changed the numbers in my Apple ID and they show as changed but the land line number still shows as number that the verification code is being sent, I prompt "Don't have access to this phone" and that's no help at all. The only way I can sign out /off from iCloud is to uncheck everything that I wanted to keep in the cloud????
Thanks in advance for any help.

Skip the iCloud sign in for now.
Once you reach the home page, go to settings and sign out of FaceTime and Messages. This should also sign you out of iCloud.
Go to iCloud in settings and sign in with the correct Apple ID.
If that does not work
Skip the iCloud sign in
Go to Apple ID.apple.com and sign in
Change your Apple ID to the old one
Delete iCloud account on your device with the old Apple ID and the same password.
Go back to the website, change your Apple ID back to the current one. You will receive an email to verify the account. Verify first.
Sign into iCloud on your device with the correct Apple ID and password

And the smartest video converter out there is…?

Video conversion has always been a pain for me. Its one thing that has kept me from putting movies on my iPhone 3g and now iPhone 4. I have practically never used my iPhone(s) for watching movies! reason… i only wanna watch movies on my iPhone when i'm travelling and then there is too little time to convert them.
what i have learnt so far is that videos have two encodings, container and codec (if i'm not wrong). i noticed, as i mentioned in another post of mine, that most of my videos have the codecs that are supported by idevices, however, they have containers that are not native, eg. flv, avi. So far, the video conversion softwares i've used, like handbrake & miro (from the mac app store), tend to encode the whole video again which takes about an hour for a 700 mb movie. is there a converter out there which would take the effort to first analyze the video and then convert only the necessary components (container, codec or both... if necessary)?
i dont know if such a thing even exists but i'm not willing to spend money on getting an all format video player for iPhone since the lite versions of many itself have some glitch in playback. instead i would spend some more on a decent converter.
please tell me what is the best path i can take. my movie collection spans 200gbs!
Neerav

I don't know if you can separate the container and codec so easily, but the most complete converter I've found so far (and I tried many over the years) is iFunia, available on the App Store (about 12$ for a limited time). For many containers you can choose between a variety of codecs within.
