Lion - pdf-x has gone - what now?

I'm missing the pdf-x item in lion. Does anybody know an alternative? Until we switched to Lion we used the "save as pdf-X" for giving flowcharts designed in omnigraffle to our printing department, which can only deal with pdf-x files to ensure the colors. We won't change from omnigraffle as our daily business depends on this software. Now, how do we get pdf-x fles done under Lion?

Not sure why PDF-X has been removed from the PDF button in the print dialog. Looking at /Library/PDF Services, the workflow is not present. But there is a process to get the option back.
If you open ColorSync Utility and select Filters, you can see there is a "Create Generic PDFX-3 Document" filter. If you click the triangle to the right of this filter and select to Duplicate, this will create a copy of this filter at the bottom of the filters list. For this copied filter, you can click the triangle to its left to expand, and expand the Domains entry. If you check the box PDF Workflows, you will now have a "Create PDFX-3" option via the PDF button in the print dialog. Select this entry when printing and a PDFX-3 document will be created on the Desktop.

  • I dropped my iphone 3gs and the screen has gone blank now showing a white screen with no icons can anyone advise me how to fix it?

    I dropped my iphone 3gs and the screen has gone blank now showing a white screen with no icons can anyone advise me how to fix it?

    Tim is correct.
    But, first step with 3GS white screen and most iPhone problems is Reset, hold both home and power buttons until iPhone begins to restart itself, usually about 10 seconds of holding both buttons. If still white screen.
    Next step would be Restore the iPhone Firmware with iTunes on your computer. If still white screen.
    Next step would be to follow Tim's advice, if you had not already.

  • Upgraded to 7.0.2, suddenly 2/3 of my music is gone. what now?

    The subject line says it all: huge amounts of my music vanished after I upgraded iTunes. What the ****?! Fortunately, most of the missing stuff was from CDs that I own, so it's not like I can't get it back, but: 1) it's a freakin lot of work & 2) I'm not even sure of what is missing (since we're talking hundreds of songs vanished) -- until I look for a particular song & it's not there, which is what happened just now. But most of all, software should not behave like this!
    What I want to know is: did my music just get hidden someplace else on my computer? (Spotlight couldn't find anything.) What do I do when I figure out something is gone that I'd downloaded? Is Apple going to fix this problem???
    Thanks in advance for all advice, wisdom, consolation, &c.

    The following Apple link refers to iTunes 6 and later.
    Read the procedure slowly and very carefully before you start moving Folders, especially the renaming of the Previous Music Library folder. I also recommend a Restart before relaunching iTunes.

  • Encore gone, what now? And a CC install question.

    I'm planning on updating to CC 2014 from CS6, but I was very disappointed to learn that Adobe has discontinued Encore. While there's a lot of digital distribution nowadays, disc authoring is still needed. It's fine that Adobe leaves Encore CS6 available to Cloud users, but Encore, while a decent authoring application, still needed a lot of enhancements. Besides, it will come to a point where Encore will be too old and incompatible to be used.
    So I'm wondering, what other programs of the same category are out there for Blu-ray authoring? Because for what I can see, there are consumer grade programs, and then extremely expensive programs for studios. Then there's Sony DVD Architect, but last time I checked it didn't accept files encoded with x264, which is by far the best h.264 encoder. Encore does take x264 encodes, as long as it was encoded with parameters compliant with the Blu-ray standard.
    I think Adobe should bring back Encore and revamp it like they did with all the other apps.
    But about the installation, I read the article about installing Encore with a Cloud subscription (Encore CS6 not installed with Creative Cloud) but I already have CS6 installed, so just wanted to double check. I'm just supposed to uninstall everything but Encore before I install CC, right? There's no point in uninstalling everything to then go through the convoluted process in that article of installing Premiere so Encore gets installed with it, and then uninstall Premiere.
    Thanks

    I found something in another thread that addresses my question in part, why Encore has been discontinued. I'll paste the relevant part here:
    Encore will never be supported on Mavericks simply because it is End Of Life - Sonic Solutions (who licensed the Encore AuthorCore to Adobe) were swallowed up by Rovi (whose business model is based on streaming on demand) who killed off Sonic Solutions at the end of 2012, finally withdrawing all support from December 31 2013. This affecvted Scenarist SD, Scenarist BD 4 & BD5, Total Code, CineVision, all of it - gone. The argument was that "optical media is dead" but my cynical mind tells me they saw an opportunity to take their main competitor out of the game & went for it. Companies who had spent tens of thousands of pounds on seriously expensive high end authoring & encoding tools suddenly found themselves on their own with no support. Nice move, Rovi.
    Another victim here was Adobe, who found themselves with no way to relicense the authorcore so bye-bye Encore. Adobe did *not* stop supporting Encore - the people who bought Sonic Solutions killed it off, and I do not see Adobe starting from scratch & building their own tool to do this as the development costs would be enormous.
    It's the sad reality of corporate America, companies buying competitors and killing them off. It's like what Autodesk did with Softimage and it's happened way too many times. There should be laws against this.

  • HT201412 Help! I play bingo bingo, it starts up gives me my tickets than freezes on loading , this has gone on now for  5 days . It starts out fine .

    Help! I have a iPad 4, I play bingo bingo, for 5 days now , it freezes after giving my tickets when it says loading . Can someone help get this problem resolved?

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try another cable
    - Try on another computer                            
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • When saving a PDF to the Hard Drive the PDF logo has been replaced with a HTML FireFox Logo where as before it would have a PDF Logo. Is this right?

    It also when opening opened in FireFox not Adobe until i changed it in Windows but the PDF logo has gone and now with the HTML FireFox Logo which now opens in Adobe. Why has the PDF logo been replaced? I hope i make some sense. Thankyou.

    If you set Firefox as the default browser and Firefox detects via a registry scan that there is currently no file handler application that handles PDF files and a few other file types then the Firefox updater/installer registers Firefox as the default application to handle these file types.
    This causes them to show with a Firefox icon on the desktop and in other places like Windows Explorer (Bug 452254).
    You can right-click a PDF file in Windows Explorer and use the open with dialog to change the default application to the Adobe Reader or your preferred application to handle PDF file.
    If the icon doesn't change to the icon of that application then you may have to change the icon on the desktop via other means
    On Windows XP you can check the Windows Control Panel:
    *Control Panel > Folder Options > File Types: .PDFf
    *Registry Editor: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\.pdf\ or HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.pdf (Default = empty string)

  • The charge on my iphone 3g has completely gone, and now it won't charge.How can I turn it on?

    my charge has gone and now the phone will not charge now. What can I do? please can someone help. Mick from the UK.

    Hi Mick,
    The battery could have died...
    Plug it in to the Wall Charger for 20 to 30 Minutes, then unplug it and try this...
    Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
    Wait for the Apple logo to Appear and then Disappear...
    Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... ( But can take Longer...)
    Release the Buttons...
    Turn the Phone On...
    If still no joy, it may need a New Battery, or it could be time to consider a New Phone...
    If nothing works, take it to your nearest Apple Store and they will check it for you...
    Cheers,

  • I downloaded a movie last night from iTunes and it downloaded to my laptop and my phone but for some reason it now won't play on my laptop. The album artwork on my laptop has gone and it exists perfectly on my phone. What do I do?

    Help!
    I downloaded a movie last night from iTunes and it downloaded to my laptop and my phone but for some reason it now won't play on my laptop. The album artwork on my laptop has gone and it exists perfectly on my phone. What do I do?
    I paid for it so I'd really like to avoid paying again just to see this movie. Is it because it's on my iPhone? Whenever I try to click on the movie to make it play it just does nothing like it's not there. The file for the movie exists within my iTunes library files but I can't seem to click and drag it into iTunes or open it with iTunes. Need help.

    The first time an iPhone is connected to iTunes that is used to sync with another iPhone or iOS device, you are prompted to transfer the backup for the other iPhone or iOS device or to set up the iPhone as a new iPhone.
    The former does as provided - it transfers the backup for the other iPhone or iOS device to the iPhone replacing all data on the iPhone that is included with the backup being transferred. The latter does nothing allowing you to make your various selections for the iPhone sync preferences with iTunes.
    This is designed to be done right away with a new iPhone.
    If you don't have a backup for the iPhone with iTunes on your computer and don't have an iCloud backup that hasn't been updated since choosing to transfer the backup for your iPod Touch to the iPhone, the data that was on the iPhone is gone.
