M4P files don't seem to work in Imovie HD

I am having trouble using M4P songs I purchased on Itunes in Imovie. They cause the Ken Burns effect to be shaky. I do not have the same problem when I use music I imported from CD's. Has anyone else had this issue?

I guess I was sleepy... it's [11.0.10] not 10.0.10
At any rate, the key path I used mentioned @ http://www.adobe.com/devnet-docs/acrobatetk/tools/QuickKeys/EnhancedSecurityQuickKeyAll.pd f (for reader 11.x) is
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Adobe\Acrobat Reader\11.0\FeatureLockDown]; I noticed they also show up in the equivalent key under Wow6432Node.
I even restarted these PC's after ensuring the registry values were all there - but it was the same situation after reboot.
I don't know how it would matter, but some additional details that may help:
All the values all being applied from the SYSTEM user, as I'm deploying these as a Compliance Baseline from Configuration Manager.
it might be possible that all affected installations were installed with an .mst

I've just changed from a PC to a mac and have a large number of downloaded WMA music files (not i-tunes purchases) which I just can't get into my i-tunes library. File converters don't seem to work either. Any ideas?

I've just changed from a PC to a mac and have a large number of downloaded WMA music files which I can't get into i-tunes. When the library was in Windows, i-tunes would convert the files automatically, but this doesn't happen now. I've downloaded a couple of file converters, but these don't seem to work either. Any ideas?

iTunes for Windows (but not iTunes for Mac) can import and convert unprotected WMA tracks. If the tracks are protected by DRM (Digital Rights Management) then it will not accept them.
One option would be to install iTunes on your PC, do the conversion, and then transfer the converted tracks from iTunes on your PC to iTunes on your Mac.

How do I get all my fonts to work. I upgraded the OS and the old fonts don't seem to work.

How do I get all my fonts to work. I upgraded the OS and the old fonts don't seem to work.

If the fonts are installed on the OS they should be there already. If they were only available to CS5 they are probably in the fonts folder in the Adobe section of the Common files (location will be OS dependent), or they may be in ID's own fonts folder.

My speaker doesn't work when I try to listen to music or open up a quick time file, however they seem to work perfectly when I listen to a voice memo (p.s. the volume slider disappears in a song page and even in the multi tasking bar)

Thanks for your solution, it wasn't quite what solved the problem but i remembered that i had a bit of salt water on my phone recently and spraying the charging port with an anti-oxide spray solved my problem, do you mind if i ask, how is the charging port related with the volume or/and speakers?

The Ctrl+Up and Ctrl+Down keyboard short cuts don't seem to work anymore. Can we get this back?

Until the latest update (I'm guessing v 34.x), the search bar's icon would show you the currently selected default search engine. I understand that Google is no longer paying to be the default... That I was expecting and isn't my issue....
I used to be able to use Ctrl+Up and Ctrl+Down to change the default search engine (maybe default isn't the right term... but it changed what was used when I hit <Enter> or <Alt+Enter>). Now, there's no support for this as far as I can tell.
This shortcut page (https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/keyboard-shortcuts-perform-firefox-tasks-quickly) still references it, but it doesn't seem to work.
As a sort of side note: Where typically, middle clicking on anything opens stuff up in a new tab, that behavior does not seem to carry over when clicking one of the non-default options in the search context menu. I've always appreciated that Firefox was very consistent about respecting the middle click as "do this in a new tab" what seems EVERYWHERE.

If you start typing a search term then a drop-down list opens.
You can use the Tab key to select other search engines that show on the bottom bar.
If you want to restore the previously used standalone window to manage search engines then you can toggle this pref to false with a middle-click on the about:config page.
*about:config page: browser.search.showOneOffButtons = false
You need to close and restart Firefox to make this work properly.

Updates to Photoshop CC don't seem to work.

I've installed Photoshop CC, Lightroom CC and Bridge CC, and they seem to work properly.
Several times a day, the update dialogue appears, announcing that updates are available (bug fixes). Several times I've clicked the blue Update buttons, and they appear to show the updates being installed (the bar progresses to 100% and the green check mark appears.) But then the next day the same dialogue appears, announcing updates available.
I can't tell whether the updates failed to install, despite the indicators showing they did. Or if the updates did install, maybe the update manager can't figure that out.
Thanks greatly for any help you can give me.

My current Bridge CC version is 6.0.1.6
Current Extension Manager CC version is 7.1.1.32
Current Photoshop CC version is 14.1.2 x 64
Current Camera Raw CC version is 8.3.0.141
I updated all the above again today. The version numbers were identical, ie unchanged, before and after the "update."
I see that others seem to be experiencing the same problem.

I need to move my profile to an external drive but the edits I make to the profile.ini file don't seem to be working

I am using a Mac, and need to have my profile be on an external drive. I edit the profile.ini file per the instructions I found here:
https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/profiles-tb
but it's not working. I must have the path wrong. Again, I am using a Mac. Here is the info in the profile.ini file:
[General]
StartWithLastProfile=1
[Profile0]
Name=default
IsRelative=0
Path=Macintosh%HD/My%20Passport/Thunderbird/Profiles/o6fqy09d.default
Default=1
Do you see anything about the path that looks incorrect? The "My Passport" is the external drive.
Also, if there was an updated disk image for Portable Thunderbird, I could try setting that up but all I can find is a very old one which I tried but it won't update.
Thank you,
Todd

The "My Passport" external drive must be mounted somewhere in the file system. That's the path you need to use.

[SOLVED]multiply-claimed blocks, files don't seem broken, fsck differs

In this laptop there's a 1TB hdd(mechanical, not SSD) with all kinds of multimedia files. Lots of files that have been added after a certain point in time seem to have a problem, as I found out by running "e2fsck -n /dev/sdX1" on that partition.

When I listen/look at those files through mplayer, it doesn't seem to have any problems whatsoever in playing them and I don't hear any glitches. Everything seems to be fine with the files themselves.
Now, before I run "e2fsck -y /dev/sdX1" and lose a lot of precious time reripping music, I was wondering about the chances e2fsck may cause damage. Or whether not fixing (what doesn't seem to be broken) may cause disasters of even greater proportions in the long run.
Please help?

The reason I asked was because $favouritesearchengine got me mixed results. One case stated everything was fine, afterwards, another said some files went missing or were misplaced.
But luckily, the number of directories in question isn't that high, so I'll backup manually and see how things works out. I'll report back here afterwards so future generations will know what to do.

Placeholders on Master Slides in Captivate 5 don't seem to work

Hi I'm very new to Captivate and I am exploring the trial version (5) to learn what it can do.
I am trying to create a project template with a master slide. I have added text caption placeholders to the master slide and saved the file as a project template.
When I create a 'new project from template' using this file I have created a slide based upon the master with placeholders but I am unable to edit the placeholders from the film strip view (they are not clickable, and stay locked). Am I doing something wrong?
There appeared to be a thread about an issue with Master slides but I don't know if this has been resolved.
I'm hoping it's an error on my part (which someone can hopefully correct me on) rather than a bug in Captivate as this would seem to be a pretty fundamental feature when creating courseware.
Thanks in advance.

Hello,
To really know the power of master slides and templates I should explain a lot more, but in my previous answer I just tried to explain why your approach was not the right one. In a template you can have much more than just a couple of slides with placeholders, you can have typical object styles, advanced actions, user variables etc. It would really need more than a short answer in this thread to explain all that. And that is different from just a blank slide, because placeholders (keeping all introduced styles) will not exist in a blank project, where you would have to insert text to have the proper layout etc.
Master slides can have variables inserted in a Text Caption, or even have a rollover caption that can have variables in it. I tried to explain the use of variables in this article, and there are examples to be used on a master slide:
Using power of variables without advanced actions
In my blog I'm always using master slides, you'll find links pointing to other articles

If you work with stencil slides, indeed the user will have to duplicate stencil slides to use them. Captivate is not Powerpoint, which is meant for presentations on the first place, while Captivate is meant for developing software training, soft skills trainings, assessments and perhaps presentations.
I'm sorry, just wanted to help you.

Time Machine and Time Capsule don't seem to work well together?

Reposted.
I get the feeling there are some serious problems with the combination of Time Machine and Time Capsule.
This is extremely disappointing, as the idea of a centralized backup device on the network (instead of disks attached to each and every computer we have running Leopard) seemed like such a good idea and a good way to supplement our tape-based backup that takes place with Retrospect.
In reality, it's a disaster on both Intel and PowerPC systems. All systems and the Time Capsule are fully up to date with software updates from Apple. I have two 1TB Time Capsule units. It goes something like this:
1. I have a few systems (mainly Intel) that work perfectly with the Time Capsule. There are no complaints and no issues at all. These systems just quietly run their backups as they should. They are the definite minority--maybe one or two have worked properly.
2. I have some systems that complain from time to time (mainly PowerPC) but will back up with a little encouragement. These too are the minority.
3. And finally, I have systems that are nothing but pain. These are both Intel and PowerPC systems. They are also the majority of the systems I have. The most common problem is sudden loss of the credentials needed to access the Time Capsule hardware--a user will be going along about their business when the Mac OS asks for the Time Capsule user name and password--after it's already been supplied and backups have been running. This should simply never ever happen.
Another charming behavior I've seen is corruption of the sparse disk image file that each computer creates on the Time Capsule. Time Machine will complain that it can't perform the backup, and examining the disk image file with Disk Utility shows it to be severely damaged. Turning off Time Machine, deleting the corrupted sparse image file, and starting over fixes it. For a while.
Finally, there are the machines (again, both Intel and PowerPC) that just can't seem to actually get through the first backup run. They either go so far and can't continue, or never actually manage to get started. I've checked the disks in these computers and found no problem with the hardware or file system. The installations are fresh and fully up to date.
Meanwhile, I have computers running Leopard with directly attached disks configured for use with Time Machine. One is a QuickSilver that isn't even officially supported by Leopard, with a Firewire attached disk. It doesn't skip a beat. The other is an Intel Mac mini being used with Mac OS X Server 10.5.4 and a USB external hard drive. These machines just do their thing, and I never have to babysit them.
These problems with the Time Capsule have been so severe that I've just given up on most of the computers and shut off Time Machine entirely. We have tape backups that run over the week, so it's not a huge loss. But that's not what really made me throw up my hands and say "enough"...no, that was the speed. Even with just one computer backing up to it, the Time Capsule seemed terribly slow. Watching the progress indicator was just painful.
I put in a word about all of this to my independent Apple dealer, and they say I'm definitely not the first to complain about some or all of these problems. In fact, they told me they were going to set up a test lab in their shop to see if they could duplicate these findings. I have no doubt that they can.
There are a total of seven computers backing up to one Time Capsule. They all store maybe ~40GB worth of data including the OS. There are about six computers on the other. Because of the way the network is laid out, the Time Capsule is connected to a Gigabit switch (and that is the only thing it's connected to). It cannot be used as the router, although I know Apple suggests this. The Airport section is disabled--I have no need or desire to use it. Some computers link up at 100 megabits, others at 1 gigabit. There are no network problems--we have no problems moving large amounts of data across the same network to our tape backup machine.
Is anyone else seeing these kinds of problems? Am I doing something wrong or expecting too much from Time Capsule?

I may be on to something. The Time Capsules I have live in a telephone equipment room that is indoors but not directly air conditioned or heated. It doesn't ever get too hot to be comfortable in there--the highest I've ever seen the temperature was 80 degrees (F). Most of the time the temperature is between 60-78 degrees.
I happened to touch one of them the other day while it was in use, and I noticed that the casing was hot to the touch...not dangerously so I suppose, but much hotter than I would have expected.
So I turned a small fan on both Time Capsules and have left it running. And I've noticed that not only do backups seem to complete more quickly, the reliability is also better. I am going to try some of my most troublesome computers once again just to see what happens.
I know there is a fan pointed at the hard drive in the Time Capsule, but I can't see how it does much in the way of cooling things down. In my opinion, it's just surrounded by too many heat producing devices to do much good...after all, not only is there a 7200 RPM hard disk in there, but also a 500MHz Marvell processor and radio set.

Color profiles don't seem to work since 2.1 update

I have a Powerbook G4 1.67 (last of the motorola chips) running 10.4.11.
I have used aperture for a year and love it... When I upgraded to aperture 2.1 and security update at the end of March my print profiles for my Canon IP5200 seemed to stop working and my once wonderful prints where no longer true to my on screen image. I have not been able to verify if it is aperture's problem or something I am doing wrong. I have not seen any recent printing/color managements issues in this discussion group and wonder if anyone else is having the same problem.
I wonder if upgrading to Mac OS 10.5 would fix the problem. Thanks for any help.

Okay Rich, I hope I can help.
The main difference with the Pro9000 and the other Canon printers I use (iP8500, 6700d) is that to get the best prints I turn off "Black Point Compensation" when printing from Aperture. With it on, the colors are slightly washed out, but with it off they're spot on.
So, say I'm printing a 4 x 6 on Canon's Photo Paper Plus Glossy paper, my settings would be as follows:
_Aperture Print Dialogue Box_
Printer: Canon Pro9000 (I have the latest driver installed which was posted 4/10/2008 & the 10.1 CUPS driver)
Paper Size: 4 x 6 Borderless
Orientation: I don't use "Best Fit", I specify landscape or portrait
ColorSync Profile: with this paper I use "Canon Pro9000 SP1"
Black Point Compensation: Off (again, this is turned on in Photoshop & when I print to my other Canon printers. The Pro9000 handles the blacks without issue, so turn it off.)
Gamma: 1.00 (same on iP8500, 1.05 with 6700d)
_Print Settings_
Quality & Media: Photo Paper Plus Glossy, Detailed Setting, Slider all the way to the right (Fine)
Color Options: Brightness is the only option available, I leave it as "Normal"
Borderless Printing: Amount of Extension all the way to the left at "Min"
With those settings, and a good calibration on my main display, I'm getting great, accurate prints. I just went through the process today of profiling my system using an Eye-One Display 2, and things are looking even better than before. If you head over to http://www.gballard.net/nca.html you can get a great test image near the bottom of the page to calibrate with (a good site on color mangement, although I get better results with the ColorSync workflow in Photoshop).
I hope that helps with your Pro9000 issues Rich, best of luck!

Animated Texts in Demoversion don't seem to work properly

Hey there,
I am quite interested in buying and working with Adobe Premiere Elements (12). I do quite some hobby film editing, and have some experiences on the field with other free programmes (like Avidemux, Movie Maker, etc.), but I have some spare money and thought that Premiere would help me do my job easier, and / or better.
So, I downloaded the demo version to see if I can get around it, and if it has all the functions I want from a program, that is at least a little bit expensive from my point of view.
All in all I think it is neat, but I have one problem that is a severe problem for me. I can't get my texts animated. No matter what I do. I have read the related FAQ-section, I have had a browse-around in the Adobe TV section, and I don't think I am doing it the wrong way - it just doesn't work.
I have my video, audio and all the stuffs in place. Around the time of 10-15 seconds I do have a title (sort of an intro-title-thingy), and I don't want that to just "pop up" and "pop out", but rather have some nifty animation to come in.
What I am trying is:
Activating / selecting the text passage.
Going to the righthand window, selecting the "animation" tab. There we have the first problem: The preview of the shown effects does only work randomly (which means sometimes it doesn't work at all), and if so, only with a quite big delay.
Nevertheless, when I try to apply any of those animations, I just have no possible way of doing so. The "OK" Button on the bottom of the animation tab is grayed-out, so I can't click that. If I try to drag&Drop the animation on the text in question, it just shows a forbidden-sign and doesn't apply it. Whether I try to drag and drop it on the preview-text in the preiview-video, or if I try to Drag&Drop it to the text in the overview-timeline down below.
From the same window I can apply styles, I can change the text font, etc. The only thing I can't get to work is the animation thing.
I am also quite certain that my new PC should not be the problem - I work on 16 Gigs of RAM, Win 8.1 and an Intel Xeon processor, so that should be enough to handle the workload...
Since I think animated texts are quite improtant for video editing and videos without it look quite, quite less professional, this would be a reason for me to not buy the program at all. Although I think it MIGHT be related to the fact that it is only a demo, but since I can't check that without investing money...
Anyhow, I was hoping that maybe you nice people here have an idea where I am going wrong, and that maybe this is all just related to my own stupidity, so any good ideas? Help? And stuffs?
Thanks for your help in advance!

concreteduck
I have just read your thread and will respond more fully after you have read through the link provided in this thread. Right now I want to point out where I do not agree especially with SG's "The text can only be one line long" when it comes to the Premiere Elements Titler Text Animation Feature. Not so.
For starters, please check out my blog post on the Premiere Elements Titler Text Animations and a sampling of some of the text animation effects that can be achieved in the Premiere Elements Titler Text Animation feature.

I have an 8GB Ipod Touch 2nd Gen. The apps I already purchased don't seem to work anymore and when I go to re-install, I can't because it says I need a software update. How can I get access to the apps that I purchased?

Due to having a gen 2 Ipod, I can't download any apps from the app store. Plus, many of my previously downloaded apps (that I bought) aren't working...so I can't even re-download them since I still have 4.2.1. HELP!!! Rediculous that I can't use apps I paid for on the same device that I purchased them on.
<Edited by Host>

A 2G iPod can only go as high as 4.2.1
Many developers when they updated their apps to support iOS 5 and 6 dropped compatibility for iOS 4.2.1 and earlier.
Your only way is if you have the version that was compatible on your computer such as in the recycle bin/trash or in a computer file backup. In that case delete the current version that is in your iTunes App library and replace it with the older version. Then sync.
