Libraries and templates

i'm implementing libraries and templates in my website for
the first time; i have a series of library files - menubar, footer,
etc - imbedded in the master template. the problem is with updating
library files: when i update one of the library files, i have to
reload every webpage that references the file using my third party
ftp. i thought that the library files would eliminate this process.
is this a way to make the updating process more efficient?
i previously used a javascript reference and did not have
this problem. although i rather not, i'm considering going back to
the old system.
thanks in advance

Definitely not. Library items, and Templates for that matter,
are
Design-time tools - this means that they only work inside of
DW and only
affect local files.
If you want a more flexible method that can be used remotely,
use
Server-side includes.

  • Some clients Can't open XLSX files in Libraries using template.dotx but can open xlsx files in libraries using template.doc

    If I create a new library using any Excel/Word template - DOC, DOTX, XLS, XLTX and then upload a XLSX document (or docx) then some of my clients experience issues opening the document.  My work around in the past has been to resave the document
    as XLS or DOC.  Interestingly Old Libraries (Libraries using template.doc) don't have a problem with xlsx or docx documents.  (This only works because most of the clients experiencing the problem only open a few documents and we only have to
    resave a few documents.  I don't know why these clients have this problem though.)
    We are now testing a new Terminal Server implementation.  One with OpenOffice instead of Microsoft Office.  We can't open xlsx files on new libraries but can on old libraries.  (docx files are not a problem though)  I found a couple of
    work arounds.  One work around is to click on the down arrow by the document name and select "Edit in Excel" which fails, but then clicking on the document name after will then prompt you to Open/save the document.  Clicking on Open
    successfully opens the document in OpenOffice.  (So rather tedious for the users but nothing has to be changed to make it work.)
    The other option is to create a template from one of the libraries that is working and then use it to create a new library and save my documents to the new library.  Then I'm prompted to Open/Save the xlsx documents in the library.  This
    option is less tedious for the user but then I have to go through and recreate any libraries using template.dotx.  Creating a new library using the standard Document Library option and selecting Word or Excel 2003 does not resolve the issue - it has to
    be created from a template created from an existing library that works in the Terminal Server implementation. 
    My boss is opting for the latter option unless I can come of with an alternative that doesn't mean additional steps for the users.  Training is an issue because most of the Terminal Server users are shop floor workers. 
    My question is, is there a patch or fix that addresses this issue or any other work arounds that would be less work? 
    Additional Info:  Our Sharepoint implementation is the Enterprise version is installed but we do not have the Excel related Features activated (and these can't be activated due to licensing).  I'm not sure if that matters or not but it is
    a different configuration from how most SharePoint installations are configured.  SP1 is installed.  I have not installed any recent CU's.  Versions I see in Patch Status screen include 14.0.6029.1 (primarily) with some additional features
    reporting 14.0.6105.5, 14.0.6107.5, 14.0.6112.5 and 14.0.6114.5.

    We have tried a couple of additional things.
    We uninstalled OpenOffice and are testing LibreOffice.  I also installed CMIS from the SharePoint Administrator's toolkit, added the solution, and deployed it to my sites.  The "Producer" feature is activated on the site I am testing with. 
    I created a new library and posted some docx, doc, and xlsx files to it.  All files can be opened as Read-only from the Library list.  The only way I have found that I can edit the files is to Open the Library with Explorer.   I then deactivated
    the producer feature and tested opening the SharePoint documents from Explorer and it worked the same. 
    So am I misunderstanding what the CMIS Producer feature is for?

  • VCard creation and template.

    Hi, everyone.
    I hope this is the right place to ask this question as I couldn't find any other.
    I know OS X provides support for vCards and I have used Address Book to export a few.
    There are a few questions I have about vCards and how to create them in OS X. I need to create a vCard but need to include not one but multiple website addresses and social media contact information for services such as Facebook, Twitter, Linked In, Pinterest and Google Plus. The searches I have performed failed to return any template or guide showing exactly how to do it.
    What are the data field or data delimeters used for the information above ? Does anyone have a link or a copy to a text document that shows how these data fields must be added to a vCard to be read and displayed properly ?
    My idea is to create a vCard in address book and then edit this vCard document in a text editor to add additional web addresses and social media information. Do any of you see a problem with this approach ? If so, what approach would you recommend ?
    TIA.

    About the only way to add a different background to the page is to pic the background option with the gray palm tree. That will allow you to put any photo or graphic file at the background. One user scanned different colored and textured poster paper to use as backgrounds. As far as mixing themes in a single book that can't be done.
    Do you Twango?
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
    I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

  • SharePoint 2013 - document libraries and newsfeeds are visible when viewed using Internet Explorer running on the server but not from any other machine

    On a single Windows 2012 R2 server I have installed SQL 2012 and SharePoint 2013 SP1 with the latest update roll ups. When I remote desktop to the server using the farm and site collection admin account  and open page http://server_name_here using
    Internet Explorer, I'm able to see newsfeeds and document libraries.
    If I connected to a separate Windows 7 machine as  the farm and site collection admin account  and open page http://server_name_here using Internet Explorer, I'm able to view the SharePoint pages except I cannot see any newsfeeds or document libraries.
    There's just blank space where they should be. I have repeated this process on several other machines that are not the server and get the same result on every machine (I've tried other servers, desktops, adding the SharePoint site to the trusted sites list
    in IE, even using firefox). I'm using the same account as I did when I logged onto the server directly. Any thoughts as to what's going on?
    Thanks!

    Thanks for the idea, Harsh. What am I looking for?
    It is currently set to the default of http://server_name and http://server_name:port_number (the latter is for Central Admin).
    When I have access to the server, I have always done so the same way, using http://server_name. This was true when I access it from the desktop of the server itself and when I tried to access it from other desktops and servers (the machines where I had the
    issues with the libraries and feeds not showing up). Are there other values I should add?
    I have not tried to add http://server_FQDN as we don't plan on using that to access it but if you think it will help I would be happy to add it.

  • Old Purchase orders and template - Price Information not taken into account

    Hi experts,
    In MDM catalog, I have a product with 'Price Information' and with 'Contract price'. I create a shopping cart with the 'Price Information'.
    Then, I create another shopping cart using the anterior througth the functionality 'Old Purchase orders and template'.
    The price taken into account is the 'Contract Price'
    Is this the standard procedure?
    Thanks in advance,
    R Silva

    as far as i know the price preference is in this order
    1. Contract price
    2. Purchase Info record
    3. list price
    so in that case - this is standard procedure
    you can confirm - by doing the same process for an item that  has ONLY price information (list price) and see if that price is copied from old to new SC
    thanks

  • HT1473 My girlfriend and I both have iTunes account with our own music libraries and we want to combine our two libraries into one icloude accounts so can both then access our one shared libary at anytime in the cloud.  How do we do this?

    My girlfriend and I both have iTunes account with our own music libraries and we want to combine our two libraries into one icloude accounts so can both then access our one shared libary at anytime in the cloud.  How do we do this?

    No it is not possible.  Content purchased from the iTunes Store is permanently tied to the account from which it was originally purchased, and Apple does not provide a way to change it.

  • Help with Multiple libraries and one storage location for files

    I cannot get an answer to this question anywhere and was really hoping that The [H] would be able to help.
    Here is my current set up that allows my wife and I to have completely independent libraries and ratings, but use the same files:
    -Shared folder with MP3s on a network drive.
    -Two PCs, each with it's own Ipod associated to it with individual libraries but all pointing to the same network share for MP3 Files.
    -Each PC is using the SAME Itunes account for downloads.
    -Each account has it's own library folder also on a network share.
    Now to my question(s)/problem with downloaded content:
    (1) Is there any way to have a file that is downloaded from Itunes be automatically placed in a shared location accessible to both Libraries? (Say if I download the latest Jack Johnson album, can it automatically show up in my wife's library and vice versa?)
    (2) Is there any way to share the album artwork versus having two copies of everything(one for each library)?
    So my goal is to have two libraries with a central location for ALL files, including anything downloaded from Itunes by each individual user. Is this possible?

    Have your wife transfer all purchases from the iPad into iTunes, backup her iPad and then sync with iTunes. Everything ... All media and other content will be available in that iTunes library and she will have a current backup.
    Assuming that your son will still be sharing your wife's Apple ID (he is too young to have one of his own) .... When you set up his iPad, restore the iPad from your wife's backup and then select only the content that you want your son to have on his iPad in the iTunes library and then sync that iPad with iTunes.
    The game progress is stored in the backup and should transfer onto his device when you restore from your wife's backup. You can always delete any content (apps, movies, music) that you don't want your son to have on the iPad, if you missed it when you synced with iTunes after setting the device up for him.
    You can set your sync preferences - any way that you want to - for both devices and still use the same iTunes library for both iPads. So ... Yes you can sync any apps that you want to his iPad and any apps that your wife wants to her iPad. You just need to restore your son's iPad from your wife's backup in order to get his game progress onto his iPad.
    In case you need these....

  • How can I open all my itunes libraries and merge them into one?

    Some of my music can't be opened by itunes because it says it is in another library.  As there are several of these and they won't open,I can't see where the songs I want are.  Therefore I would like to open ALL the libraries and merge them into one.  Thanks for any help.

    Hmm, read that post of Dave Sawyer's and thought well, that's Ok I have it on my iPod, but no, it's not there either.  Then resorted to Time Machine (not used for a few months (took it away with us when we evacuated to avoid Cyclone Yasi) only to find that is playing up also, and it doesn't appear to be anywhere there either!
    One thing leads on to another - Time Machine has only backed up to 3 months back; then there is nothing beyond!  yet there is tons of stuff on it.  Maybe it backs up the whole system each time, and not just the changes made inbetween times.   The prefs. won't appear and so I can't change the setup.
    All this just because of one sone!

  • Husband and Wife trying to combine music libraries and share between all Apple technologies in the house.

    My husband and I both have apple ids which we use to purchase music, movies etc...  We want to combine our libraries and pull from the same.  We've been doing this manually - but wonder if we can use the Cloud to support 2 apple ids or if we have to create a 3rd apple id / email and somehow transfer our individual music to the 3rd apple id / email.  Creating the 3rd email / apple id will be a pain since we will never use this as an email.  We need Help figuring out the best approach.

    You can't combine two Apple IDs... I have the same problem I have an iCloud mail account and an Apple ID i use to purchase music with and I'd love a way to combine them. Apple has said in the past their looking into a possible way of doing this but I'm doubtful they will... :/
    However, sounds like iTunes Match will probably be the right solution for you http://www.apple.com/itunes/itunes-match/

  • Using Office 2013 group policy template to define Trusted Locations and Template Locations doesn't work

    User Configuration/Policies/Administrative Templates
    - Using Office 2013 group policy template to define Trusted Locations and Template Locations doesn't work
    Microsoft Word 2013/Word Options/Security/Trust Center/Trusted Locations
    - Allow Trusted Locations on the network:

    Description: Trusted Location

    The policy appears to apply to the client correctly by adding the following registry key and values:

    allowsubfolders: 1
    date: June 10, 2013
    Description: Trusted Location

    However, when you open Word Options/Trust Centre/Trust Centre Settings…/Trusted Locations
    There are no trusted locations listed under ‘Policy Locations’
    I have tried setting similar settings for setting the Shared Templates folder location and just like the trusted locations policy, the registry keys are created properly in HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Policies however word doesn’t
    seem to recognize these either.
    This used to work flawlessly using the administrative templates for Word 2007 and 2010. Has anyone been able to get these policies to apply successfully, or know why office doesn’t recognize these settings from the Policies registry
    Key?

    This would have been an easy solution to the issue.  Unfortunately it isn't the problem.  This question was originally posted on another Microsoft site and
    was transferred here and when it was transferred the path's changed from the original post: 
    \\server\sharedfodlername to //server/sharedfoldername.  (I will edit the question to show up as it did in the original post) Not sure how that happened.  This
    is still an issue that I haven't been able to get working correctly.
    As it turns out the 'New from Template' interface Word 2013 has developed is very bulky with large thumbnails and is not very customizable nor practical for an office
    that has a large number of templates.   Because I am unsatisfied with the display and performance of the 'New' template chooser I sought after a solution to change the way word creates a document from a template in another thread: 
    http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/office/forum/office_2013_release-word/how-can-you-change-the-display-of-templates-in/d49194b9-a6b4-4768-8502-7d7b50e9dd65 working through this issue with Jay we were able to develop
    some VB script with handles a very large number of templates in a list view and it works much faster than the built-in Word interface.  The above thread is how I've worked around trying to define a shared template location and I am quite happy with it.

  • How do you combine mutable iphoto libraries and clean up duplicates

    how do you combine multiple iphoto libraries and clean up duplicates

    If not the only answer is the paid version of iPhoto Library Manager -http://www.fatcatsoftware.com/iplm/ - and maybe duplicate annihaliator -http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/18748/duplicate-annihilator
    You must have IPLM as stated - you may also need DA depending on how thing go with the merge

  • Multiple iPhoto Libraries and iPhone syncing

    Hi-
    Thanks for reading. I recently used iPhoto Library Manager from Fatcat (highly recommended) to take a 23,000 photo library and chop it down into several iphoto libraries. It seems that my phone by default wants to sync photos with the original library, and not one of the new ones. I am wondering a few things:
    1. when i hold down the "option" key when opening iphoto i have the choice of opening any of my libraries. Perhaps the iphone will sync to which ever iphoto library i used last???
    2. perhaps iphoto will always recognize my original library as "default" and i need to look into making one of my new libraries the master default?
    Is this possible? Can I create a new iphoto library and use this as default across all apple programs going forward?
    Any clarity on connection between new iphoto libraries and how the computer, and most importantly, my iphone, will recognize them is appreciated. thanks in advance,
    Joe

    1. when i hold down the "option" key when opening iphoto i have the choice of opening any of my libraries. Perhaps the iphone will sync to which ever iphoto library i used last???
    When you launch iPhoto it opens the last used library - so when you force a launch by connecting a camera or iPhone you will be syncing to the last used library

  • Multiple iPhoto Libraries and iDVD

    I am using iPhoto (v.6.0.5) that allows for multiple libaries but iDVD (v.6) only accesses the orignial library. Is there an easy way to have iDVD locate my other iPhoto libraries without having to rename the libaries each time?
    Thanks for your help!

    Jerry:
    Welcome to the Apple Discussions. John's suggestion about drag and drop to the slide bin is how I do my iDVD slideshow. You can use iPhoto Library Manager to manage your libraries but iDVD will have to be restarted whenever you change libraries. But, iPLM (the paid version for 20 or more photos) will let you copy albums or rolls between libraries and that would let you create a new library just for the iDVD project and move the necessary photos quickly and easily to the special library.
    Do you Twango?

  • Working with libraries and setting up on two computers

    I have been trying Lightroom on my PC and just now took the plunge and bought it (for home use: family and amateur photography). I have installed it on both the PC and laptop (Mac). Sadly the first time I tried using 1.2 having been using 1.0 and 1.1 it said there was a problem reading the library and had to check it... a bit scary...
    I am trying to work out how to set-up my system. I intend to have files on an external drive which I can then move from Mac to PC as necessary (i.e. only using one at a time): the PC is mine, the Mac is my wifes, and this seems to be the only way of allowing us to share the photos in a way which is not hugely complicated and confusing.
    Any changes we make to the photos on each machine should be visible on the other. From my understanding, that means the library has to be on the external drive, not just the image files?
    At the moment the image files and library are on my PC internal drive, imported "at their present location". Is it possible to change the kind of import (to move the image files directly into the library)? Of course it is possible to re-import from scratch, but as there are keywords already organised, and some files have been edited in PS I would lose all that, wouldn't I? Is there a more sophisticated way of changing how the files are organised?
    And when I get the external drive, can I just move the libraries and image files and then tell Lightroom about the move, or is it going to be more difficult than that?
    thanks in advance
    Nic

    Reading over your message, I am a little unclear about how far along you are in sharing your LightRoom setup with the Laptop. I am going to assume that right now Lightroom and the pictures are both on the PC and on an internal Hard Drive. And except for the scary message you had at the beginning of changing to ver 1.2, everything is working ok. Yes?
    What I'd do is wait until you get the external drive up and working. Once you are satisfied that the system works ok, and you have tested it with whatever diagnostic software you use, you are ready to start moving your images to the new drive.
    Do a good backup of your images to your backup drive.
    Move them to the hard drive from within Lightroom: Use the '+' symbol in the heading of the Folders panel to tell LR to add a new folder from the external drive to the LR folders panel, and then drag and drop the folders already in LR over to their new home.
    This way the LR Catalog will always know where the files are.
    Then when you are sure that all the image files are on the external drive and LR sees them all and everything is working correctly, exit from LR and copy the catalog file over there.
    I used to use windows systems, although I converted to Mac a few years ago. You should be able to double-click on that catalog file that is on the external drive and it should start Lightroom and you should be good to go.
    I just used the word "should" three times meaning I'm not really positive about that last step; if I'm wrong I hope someone on a PC will post a correction.
    Once it is working OK on the PC with the external drive Load LR on the Laptop.
    Best Wishes!
