Locate file window doesn't work
Ok, this problem occures only on our Z800 workstations.
Everything works as expected on my laptop.
When I try to relink a media file, the relink media window opens, and then I click the Locate button.
The new window ALWAYS opens in the top most level (basically My Computer in windows) and not in the last used directory.
I think it has something to do with the second problem - the path text box doesn't work. Whatever I enter there and click Return - nothing happens. It doesn't navigate to the folder specified in the path field. The only way to navigate is to go throught the folder tree on the left.
For every file I have to do it always from the top most level - that is a lot of clicking.
Also if I uncheck Use Media Browser to locate files, the default windows dialog properly navigates to the last known location of the file.
I know it's an error - since on my laptop everything works fine. The window opens in the last know location of the media file and I can easily navigate using the path field.
Any suggestions what could be the reason for this?

I'm not sure if this is a bug. The Locate File dialog seems to be opening where it thinks the file might be, rather than where it was. For example, I renamed the 0000.mts file for a particular project, and when I opened Premiere Pro, Locate File went to the 0000.mts file from another project/folder, thinking that might be it.
So...if you have no other files that might be the missing file, the dialog starts at the top.
Jim,
I understand what you are saying in regard to where it thinks it might be. However if I manually type a path where a file I want to link to rathter then clicking 20 times in the folder tree, it throws a "File not accessible" error. Yet if I use the folder tree to navigate to the same file it sees it and links to it fine.
It just seems that whenever I try to manually type a path in the path address field is when the error occurs.
Are you able to manually type in a path > hit enter/return and have it link to the file?

Quicktime for windows doesn't work, wont let me uninstall or update.Help!
Quicktime for windows doesn't work, won't let me uninstall (tells me fatal errro) or update (tells me it encountered an error on installation). Help!I am running Windows XP on an Intel pentium PC. Any ideas? Dvora
When you get this fatal error uninstalling, try a full removal of iTunes and related programs with an installer clean up of any that do not uninstall cleanly:
Here is a method:
Download a fresh copy of iTunes and the stand alone version of Quicktime (the one without iTunes)
http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/win.html
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Download and install Microsoft Installer cleanup utility, there are instructions on the page as well as the download. Note that what you download is the installer not the program – you have to run it to install the program.
To run the program – All Programs>>Windows Install Cleanup
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290301/
Now use the following method to remove iTunes and its components:
XP
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1925
Vista
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923
*If you hit a problem with one of the uninstalls don't worry*, carry on with the deleting of files and folders as directed in the method.
When you get to deleting Quicktime files in the system32 folder as advised in the method, you can delete any file or folder with Quicktime in the name.
Restart your PC.
Run the Microsoft Installer Cleanup Utility. (Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up)
Remove any references you find to the programs you removed - strictly speaking you only need to worry about those programs where the uninstall failed.
If you don’t see an entry for one of the programs that did not uninstall, look out for blank entries or numeric entries that look like version numbers e.g. 7.x for Quicktime or 1.x for Bonjour.
restart your PC
Install the stand alone Quicktime and check that it works.
If it does, install iTunes. -
Do I need to install boot camp on Windows 7 as well as on Lion? I already installed it some years ago on Leopard when installing Windows Vista on my Macbook Pro. But now after installing Windows 7, many things in windows doesn't work (sound etc.). I made a clean installation because I needed to go from 32 bit to 64 bit.
Or should I just update bootcamp in Lion? (cause when I search for "boot camp" in Windows 7 there's no result)Installation Guide

Lion's Boot Camp Assistant 4.x should have downloaded Apple drivers as part of also partitioning.
You need Apple drivers. And you then need to add on your own audio driver.
You can run Assistant at any time to download and save a set of drivers. -

I'm going to take a wild guess and say that you have a SATA controlled hard drive. Apparently, there's some kind of bug with SATA disks and Vista and Quicktime/itunes video...and possibly Nvidia is involved as well.
The workaround is sticking the video on a flash drive in order to play it (because that avoids the SATA controller and thus bypasses the issue). It's a crappy workaround, IMO...and I'm not spending another cent on iTunes videos until the issue is actually fixed. -
File.delete() and File.deleteOnExit() doesn't work consistently..
I am seeing some odd behavior with trying to delete files that were opened. Usually just doing new File("file.txt").delete() would work. However, in this case, I have created an input stream to the file, read it in, saved it to another location (copied it), and now I am trying to delete it.
The odd thing is, in my simple application, the user can work with one file at a time, but I move "processed" files to a lower pane in a swing app. When they exit it, it then archives all the files in that lower pane. Usually every file but the last one opened deletes. However, I have seen odd behavior where by some files don't delete, sometimes all of them wont delete. I tried the deleteOnExit() call which to me should be done by the JVM after it has released all objects such that they don't matter and the JVM ignores any object refs and directly makes a call (through JNI perhaps) to the underlying OS to delete the file. This doesn't work either.
I am at a loss as to why sometimes some files delete, and other times they don't. In my processing code, I always close the input stream and set its variable to null. So I am not sure how it is possible a reference could still be held to the object representing the file on disk.and then, in the other class

Moving ECMI repository to a new location - cluster environment doesn't work
Hello all,
Actually, we have the "default" configuration in the ECMI properties, and we want to move to a new location the File system repository (another disk location).
After reviewing the ECM doc's we found the way and the parameters to reconfigure (ContentStorePath) and we put an absolute path ( "H:\content ') instead "Default" value , but we have an issue on this.
Because our system runs in cluster mode (2 node instances), this configuration only works fine with one node, and the other doesn't work, displaying the "Content Folder Doesn't Exists" error.
Both nodes runs' on separated machines and we want to know what is the correct way to configure this feature in a cluster environment.
Best Regards
Julio C LeyvaI should note that now my local users inside the office are getting outlook errors, showing 3 checkmarks 2 green one red, regarding the cert, and the red checked box says: The name on the certificat is invalid or does not match the name
of the site.
They can bypass the error by clicking Continue, but installing it does only work for a short time before the error comes back. I think that would result from the setup in outlook pointing towards either SRV01 or SRV01.mydomain.local instead of
mail.mydomain.com
The cert error on the android devices was saying Invalid certificate, do you want to continue, or similar, except clicking continue just paused a short while and brought up the same window.
Now I am getting an error, on the android, saying Invalid username or password - when I KNOW it is valid
In regards to DNS being set up correctly - I never had a mail. A record setup prior to purchasing the commercial cert - we just used the router IP in the phones and were able to get activesync working. For some reason with the new IP / ISP we could not access
by IP. So I got the SSL, and added a mail A record to DNS, pointing to our router IP, and our router has always routed activesync/443 traffic correctly, and none of that was changed -
When I move a harddrive with Bootcamp from my mac pro to my macbook, windows doesn't work
I have a 13" Intel Core 2 Duo MacBook and the topcase-keyboard doesn't work and so for some reason, it makes it impossible for me to install windows on the bootcamp partition. While the windows installer is running, it doesn't recognize usb keyboards. So I decided to install windows 7 professional on that same drive using my Mac Pro. The installation worked perfectly.
Then I take that harddrive and I move it back to my MacBook and windows won't start up correctly, stating that something has changed (of course!...duh).
Can anyone help me with a workaround for this?
Has anyone had similar problems moving a windows partition in bootcamp from one mac to another?
How can I install windows on a MacBook without a working topcase?
I've posted this question to the Snow Leopard community because that's the OS I'm using.With the Lion it is essentially unnecessary to resort to external driver disks. What's more, most of those disks are incompatible with the OS and should not be used. The system already carries a wide variety of printer description files (aka PPDs, which is what modern printing systems use as "drivers") for a lot of brands. And there was an HP printer update just two days ago.
Just checked in mine and did indeed find that the HP OfficeJet 6200 Series, with or without Fax, is covered with the latest update.
So just go thru the motions of creating a proper printer instance:
Make sure the Mac "sees" the printer on the network.
System Preferences / Print & Scan
Click on the + button on the left column
Select the appropriate type of printer, will use IP for the rest of this
Select HP Jetdirect - Socket, default for HP network printers
Type the IP address or look it up
Name the printer for easy identification on the print dialog
Let the Mac identify the printer model or manually choose the driver
Click Add.
Once the instance pops up in the list, can click on Options & Supplies for further config. -
Burned in Nero Express through Windows, doesn't work on Mac

Dragging Safari bookmarks to open Finder windows doesn't work.
When you drag a URL from the top of a Safari window to a window in the Finder, a bookmark ("web internet location") file is supposed to be created. Since I upgraded to Yosemite, this has worked only sporadically. Now the URL just flies right back to its origin at the top of the Safari window. (Dragging a URL to an icon of a folder works fine, however.)
But when I eject the CD, then mount it again, Finder gives me a mess of one-on-top-of-the-other icons all over again
Of course it will.
The CD is read-only - it can't be written to. Since the window position, view settings, layout, etc. are stored in the directory, there's no way for the Finder to write the changed settings back to the disk before you eject it.
The issue occurs because what you're seeing is how the window was laid out when the disk was burned in the first place.
Your solution is to re-burn the disk, positioning the icons where you want them before starting the burn. -
File sharing doesn't work between two computers
I have a Macbook Air bought late 2009 (I'll call it MBA 1). OS 10.6.0.
I have a new Macbook Air bought a few days ago (I'll call it MBA 2). OS 10.6.4.
I have been attempting to share files from the two computers.
I was able to move files from MBA 1 to MBA 2 without too much fuss. I could do it both ways: by finding "Shared" in Finder and then accessing the files or I could go to "Go" and "Connect to Server". I was able to add the username of the MBA 2 to the list of users in the Sharing pane of the MBA 1.
So going from MBA 1 ---> MBA 2 is fine.
However going from MBA 2 ----> MBA 1 doesn't work.
1) The finder in the MBA 1 doesn't show "Shared".
2) I can't add user to the Sharing pane of the MBA 2.
The problem could be that the two usernames of the MBA 1 and the MBA 2 are very similar.
Username of MBA 1: jk
Username of MBA 2: J K
I tested this theory out by adding a username I just made up called "Jack" and it added the username fine to the list of users.
But it's too late to change the username of the computers now.
What can I do?I got it to work.
What I did was on MBA 2, I went to "Go" and "Connect to server". Then I selected the MBA 1 to connect to.
As soon as I did that, "Shared" appeared in Finder with the MBA 2's name on it.
After connecting which took a long time, the folders to be shared showed up in the Finder window.
I don't know why trying to connect to MBA 2's server didn't work in MBA 1. I went to "Go" and "Connect to server" many times on the MBA 1 but it didn't work. -
After upgrading to Mountain Lion, Windows doesn't work
Hello,
I've just upgraded my computer to Mountain Lion (from Leopard) and Microsoft windows 'the Power PC applications are no longer supported'. I've tried to download different version of Microsoft windows - still doesn't work. Help!?
I'm aware that this question may have been posted but somehow can't access the main community room.
Thanks
OdyleYou can't run Windows on a Mac unless you use BootCamp or a third-party utility such as Parallels Desktop.
Perhaps you mean Microsoft Word (which is part of the MSOffice suite).
Only MSOffice 2008 and later will run in Mountain Lion.
However there are very good free alternatives, such as LibreOffice. -
Keyboarding password CDE window doesn't work
I don't manage to enter the password in the password window of CDE.
The password I type is the good one, it seems to be a keyboard issue, it is locked.
Is it possible to kill this CDE console and start it again.
To be more specific, this CDE is launched on the system console.
Thanks for your helpBy default the router will use admin for either the password only or for both username and password. If it doesn't work you might have changed this before when you ran the setup cd the first time. Is the cisco connect software installed in the computer? You can check thru cisco connect what the router password is. Just go to "router settings" then check what the router password is. With cisco connect, your network password (wireless security key) is the same as the router password. Otherwise you'll have to reset the router for 10 seconds and it will goback to the default "admin" password or you may run the setup cd again.

When my Imac first boots up, file sharing doesn't work
27" iMac; about 7 months old
OS X 10.8.4
2.7 Ghz Intel Core i5
When I first boot it up, file sharing with the PCs doesn't work. I have to turn file sharing off then back on, sometimes I have to do it several times, before the PCs will finally connect using their mapped drives.Move the com.apple.systempreferences.plist out of the stupidly hidden /Library/Preferences/ folder onto the Desktop, restart, and see if the problem persists. If not, reset your system preferences and delete the moved file. Then, update to 10.8.5.

"Zoom Resizes Windows" doesn't work in CS4
I have the "Zoom Resizes Windows" option checked in Preferences. However, when I use the scroll wheel on my mouse (which is assigned to zoom in the Photoshop software), it only zooms in/out on the image within the window. WHY do they put the option in there when it CLEARLY doesn't work???
I have my image document windows "undockable", so that I have the flexibility to move them around and zoom in/out as I please when I have more than one. But the zoom does NOT zoom the document window. It keeps it the same size while moving the image within it. This "Zoom Resizes Windows" option is NOT working.
Is this a joke, or am I missing something? Any info is appreciated. Thanks!I too am having the same issue as Whintersby. I find that it is not pixel related as much as it is the physical size of the resized window.
Note the lower right corner. Once the resize dragger disappears the window will no-longer resize up using the CTRL ++. Unless you first physically drag the corner with the mouse a little. At that point the functionality returns. As Whintersby has said it is quite frustrating and quite disruptive to a solid work flow.
If anyone has found a solution to this it would be quite helpful.
For any Adobe techs that might be here, I am on Win7 (64).
While this may possibly be a moot point as I intend to upgrade to CS5, I want to make sure that it gets resolved and does not simply continue into CS5.
