[LR 3.5] An old bug is back : import dialog sometimes doesn't show up

Hi,
Sometimes, when I use the Synchronize Folder command or when I click on the Import... button, the Import dialog doesn't show up (sometimes meaning here "very often"). Obviously, the dialog has been loaded because at this time, LR is in a modal state (you can't use any user interface element - you just get a beep when clicking anywhere in the main window). The dialog is here but it is not visible. I'm using a dual monitor setup but the problem also occurs when I de-activate the secondary display.
I already encountered this bug in previous versions and I thought it had been fixed. Unfortunately, it is back. When this happens, I have to reboot the system to get the Import dialog working correctly again. A logoff / logon is not enough. Killing the LR process doesn't help either. I'm running XP Pro SP3, 3GB of memory, /3GB switch enabled (disabling it doesn't change anything).
Thanks in advance for any advice.

Actually, it can happen that when the Import dialog is in this hidden state, trying to close Lightroom causes a message box to appear : "Do you want to close the Import dialog and quit?" (or something like that). Well, I don't want to close it, I want to see it !

  • OLD BUG is back: Heavy JClient Bug regarding to scrolling within a JTable.....

    Hi,
    I'm just evaluating the new features of JDev 9.0.3.988 (preview) and found an old bug back again!
    see: Re: Fetching data from database for login
    The current behaviour is slightly different:
    You have a generated JClient form displaying a table. There are more rows than the table can show at once. You scroll down with the cursor keys until some new rows are fetched. Now scroll up again. Make sure you only use cursor keys. If you reach the upper area of the table you can see that the StatusBar isn't refreshing it's current row counter and all possibly connected fields to the same binding don't update themself either.
    You can see this behavior by using only wizard generated source code based on the SCOTT/TIGER schema.
    This bug should have been definitively fixed in a previous beta version...
    Can anyone give a comment on this?
    Thanks in advance,
    Torsten.

    This bugfix doesn't work!!!!!!
    It makes the table scrollable via cursor keys, but now scrolling with the mouse isn't possible anymore!!!!I see the bug when you apply the above mentioned workaround that leads to scrolling due to double handlers for valueChanged event
    Lets try to fix this in the JUTableBinding source. From my test runs on the when the same fix is applied on JUTableBinding source, the scroll works fine in both key/mouse modes.
    Let us know if you find otherwise.
    The fix in JUTableBinding is:
    Look up source for JUTableBinding in your setup. (It'd be in (JDEVHOME)\bc4j\src\bc4juisrc.zip
    Save a copy in your current project in the project's source path maintaining the class's package structure - save the file into sourcepath\oracle\jbo\uicli\jui\JUTableBinding.java
    Replace the existing valueChanged method with the following:
          public void valueChanged(ListSelectionEvent event)
             try
                ListSelectionModel listSelModel = (ListSelectionModel) event.getSource();
                if (mSelRowInProg || listSelModel.getValueIsAdjusting())
                   return;
                RowIterator iter = getRowIterator();
                if (!listSelModel.isSelectionEmpty())
                   if (iter == null)
                      return;
                   int selectTabRowIndex = listSelModel.getMinSelectionIndex();
                   if (getFormBinding() != null)
                      ((JUPanelBinding)getFormBinding()).callBeforeRowNavigated(getIteratorBinding());
                   int idx = selectTabRowIndex - iter.getRangeStart();
                   if (idx >= iter.getRangeSize())
                      idx = idx - iter.getRangeSize() + 1;
                      iter.scrollRange(idx);
                      idx = selectTabRowIndex - iter.getRangeStart();
                   else if (idx < 0)
                      iter.scrollRange(idx);
                      idx = 0;
                   iter.setCurrentRowAtRangeIndex(idx);
             catch(Exception ex)
                reportException(ex);
                refresh(true /*selectRow*/);
    This is a really heavy bug making the whole JUTableBinding useless... any comments on this? :((

  • Logic old bug in MIDI import

    I've had this weird issue regarding importing midi files for a very long time.
    I reported the bug to the Logic Pro Feedback several times but nothing is changed.
    If I import this MIDI file in Logic http://dl.dropbox.com/u/2723724/test.mid
    the first time only half of the instruments are recognized. The second time (without closing Logic) everything is fine.
    So, to be sure, I always have to import the same file two times.
    This is the first import
    And this is the second one
    of the same midi files.
    (If you want to try please use my test file because this happens only with some specific commercial MIDI files, not all)
    I can't believe after the release of Logic 9.1.7 the bug is still there... it seems that nobody at Apple is reading the feedback.

  • I am trying to back up my music on iTunes to a DVD.  When I choose File Library Back Up to Disc, the "back up to disc" doesn't show, so I can't back up my music files on a DVD.

    I am trying to back up my music on iTunes to a DVD.  When I choose File>Library>Back Up to Disc, (Back up to disc) doesn't appear, so I cannot backup my music to aDVD.

    The back up to disc feature has been removed from recent builds of iTunes. Use SyncToy (PC) or Carbon Copy Cloner (Mac) to clone your iTunes library onto an alternate internal, external or network drive.

  • Old PBG4 17 with new logic board doesn't show "built-in" AirPort

    I just replaced the logic board in my summer 2003 PowerBook G4 17" which should have standard built-in AirPort. But when I go to Network, AirPort doesn't exist.
    Does anyone know what the problem/cause may be? Did I miss re-connecting something? Or is the AirPort built into the logic board and the new one just didn't have one???
    Please tell me before I take it a part again...
    Thanks in Advance!

    I've tried to reset all of them and now only the Extreme shows up in the Airport utility.
    But I can find the Expresses as Wireless Clients. Somehow the Extreme doesn't recognise them as Airports.
    With my PC I can access them all through Airport utility and they are well whithin range and respond to changes I make to the settings.
    It must be the settings of the Extreme that's I've messed up.
    I'll try another reset and start from scratch, again...

  • I am trying to get space on an external hard drive which has some old time machine back up files that I do not need but can not eliminate, even by going into the time machine, clicking on the backup file to be eliminated and using the drop down eliminate

    I cannot find this 300GB "Backup" in the Finder, only in the Storage info when I check "About This Mac".
    You are probably using Time Machine to backup your MacBook Pro, right? Then the additional 300 GB could be local Time Machine snapshots.  Time Machine will write the hourly backups to the free space on your hard disk, if the backup drive is temporarily not connected. You do not see these local backups in the Finder, and MacOS will delete them, when you make a regular backup to Time Machine, or when you need the space for other data.
    See Pondini's page for more explanation:   What are Local Snapshots?   http://pondini.org/TM/FAQ.html
    I have restarted my computer, but the information remains the same. How do I reclaim the use of the 300GB? Why is it showing up as "Backups" when it used to indicate "Photos"? Are my photos safe on the external drive?
    You have tested the library on the external drive, and so your photos are save there.  
    The local TimeMachine snapshot probably now contains a backup of the moved library.  Try, if connecting your Time Machine drive will reduce the size of your local Time Machine snapshots.

  • Unable to Open/Import Multiple Files in Audtion 3 - Old Bug?

    As stupid as it might sound I can't seem to open more then single files from the Files Window in Audition 3.0.1. You can select them (shift+click or right click) but they don't open. However if you drop them from explorer or "open file with" they do open but then the next issue emerges.... They are not saved in the session file UNLESS you use them in the Multitrack View!! Now is this me or is it an old bug or something? (I've recently updated from Audition 1.5).
    The files I've tried are mainly wav-files and mp3. Same result though.

    Ooo? So UNSED files are NOT reloaded in the session file! Well, thanks for
    clearing that up (Still, I must say it makes it a bit frustrating though!).
    My impression was that, as I used Audition 1.5 before, I was quit sure it
    was possible there! But then again it's been a while since I used that
    program too in a major scale. (I've been working in much After Effects
    lately, wich of course has another handling of files).
    As for the Files (Edit) View, I still can not open more than ONE file at the
    time from that location - regardles of Multitrack or Edit View, really!
    ShiftClick, CtrlClick, Right Click - you name it. Yes, select them but
    open? No can do!! Now, as I mentioned before there is the workaround when I
    select the files in explorer (Windows) and then drops them in Auditions
    File View - they all then load accordingly (Or you can aslo use "open file
    with" then point to Audition). Otherwise, once the files are imported,
    there's no problem working with them in Multitrack/Edit and do all the rest.
    Yet, it is a bit absured though and hard to tell whether it's a bug or not
    (?). Virus?
    Anyway, thanks a bunch!

    I'm not sure I'm understanding your problem with the Files window.  To try
    this, I opened eight files in the Files window in Edit View.  From there I
    could drag any one of them into the Edit window with no problems.  I also
    was able to drag them into different tracks in Multi Track View.  I also put
    files into the Files window, CTRL+clicked all of them and dragged all of
    them at once into the Multi Track View successfully.  I repeated this doing
    SHIFT+click.  I then put into the Files window tracks that have different
    sample rates.  They all went into the Multi Track without incident (after
    the program resampled the unmatching tracks to conform to the session's
    sample rate).
    >
    Yes, you are correct that the files not used in the session are not
    reloaded into the Files window when the session is reopened.

  • How do I "locate" my CD in itunes?  Can I get the old itunes menu back?

    I burned a CD using itunes.  But it automatically used Windows Media to play back and changed the sequece to alphatical order.
    I changed the setting to have itunes as the "preferred" player but still won't work.  The CD doesn't even show up on the itunes menu.  Can't find it under file or the "music" button.  Tried clicking each and every button.  Still cannot find it!
    Also, I used to just click and drag songs from a CD to my playlists.  With the new menu, it won't show both the CD song list and my playlists at the same time so I can't click and drag anymore.  I have been importing all the songs and then search for them one by one and copy each to the playlists.  VERY annoying. Any suggestion as to how to do this?  Can I have my old itunes menu back please?

  • How do I get an old iTunes library back?

    Last winter I was trying to create a new library and somehow lost the one I use daily. I ended up just totally rebuilding my itunes library by using a program that lets you put songs from you ipod to your computer. Now all of a sudden almost 6 months later i turn on my computer and get ready to back up my itunes library and my old one is back and the one I had rebuilt and improved is gone. My newer songs and playlists are all gone. I dont know what is going on. Its making me mad. I do not want to have to rebuild it all again. I didn't get to back up my library... I was going to today. I just figured out how to.

    Hold down the option key while starting iTunes. Select the library you want to use.

  • New firefox installed - didn't give me the option of not installing it before telling me that (essential to me) add-ons were incompatible. How can I get the old firefox version back?

    I would not have installed the new firefox if I had known in advance that two of my essential add-ons would no longer work. Now I want the old firefox version back so I can continue to function until the add-ons are updated. Suggestion: when you notify user that add-ons are incompatible, give the option of reverting to an earlier firefox version.

    Firefox now always stores the old session, and you can access it by going to the History menu and selecting "Restore Previous Session"
    If you want Firefox to display the message to save the session, it can be turned back on by changing some preferences.
    # Type '''about:config''' into the location bar and press enter
    # Accept the warning message that appears, you will be taken to a list of preferences
    # Locate the preference '''browser.tabs.warnOnClose''', if its value is set to '''false''', double-click on it to change its value to '''true'''
    # Repeat this for these 3 preferences '''browser.warnOnQuit''', '''browser.warnOnRestart''' and '''browser.showQuitWarning'''
    If you always open the last set of tabs, an alternative approach is this:
    # Click the orange Firefox button, then select options to open the options window
    # Go to the General panel
    # Change the setting "When Firefox starts" to "Show my windows and tabs from last time"

How do I get my old iTunes library back? I tried using icloud on my iphone but it stated that I have never back up my phone before. So I guess my iCloud data is gone too?

    1) ensure iTunes is authorized for your iTunes store account(s)
    2) connect your device and right-click or control-click it in the iTunes Source list, then choose transfer purchases from the shortcut menu that appears.
    3) sync the device
    iTunes will wipe the iPhone but, since you transferred your purchases in the previous step, your content will be in your library and you can re-populate the iPhone with it.
    above works for purchases from the iTunes store. for everything else, check out this post by Zevoneer.

  • I upgraded my computer to Windows 7 and now I tunes is empty and when I try to sync my Iphone4 or IPod, it states they belong to another ITunes Library. How do I sync all my content, including Apps to my computer again or get my old Itunes library back?

    To all:
    I recently upgraded my computer from Windows XP to Windows 7.  Now my Itunes library is no longer available? When I try to sync my IPod or Iphone 4 to ITunes, it states that the content on my devices belong to another Itunes Library and do I want to transfer purchases, erase etc? 
    How do I get my old Itunes Library back?  Some of my music are from CD's I own and really don't want to start the years of building my Itunes library all over again?
    How do I bring all the contents: contacts, music, apps etc from my Iphone4 back to Itunes?
    Confused. 

    The ipod/iphone/ipad are not backup sotrage devices.
    Certainly you did not upgrade your computer without making sure that your backup copy of your computer was up to date.  Just use your backup copy of your computer to put everything back.
