Many bugs and problems in Pages 5.0

Hi everybody!
I just send this bug report to the Apple's feedback team.
Meanwhile, maybe you guys could help me find any solutions? Thanks!
I downloaded Pages 5.0 yesterday.
It seems that it is impossible to use the Align and Distribute function. When I select more then three objects I can't use those function either by the Inspector window or the main menu at the to of the page.
Those functions appear in grey.
Also, I noticed that I can't group or ungroup those objects. These functions also appear greyed.
Also, I wonder why Pages 5.0 doesn't allow to show the vertical ruler.
Finally, it seems - as in the previous version of Pages - impossible to select multiple objects with a selecting arrow allowing the user to circle the desired objects. Command-A or click-shift is not an option when you want to select specific and multiple objects in an area. Dammm! That is something so useful in Word!

UPDATE
Some problems solved
Notice : I use a the french version. I'll try to use the right terms to get me understanded.
About those functions : group, ungroup, align, distribute... They get available when :
     - you first select one or more objects
     - in the Format Window at right you choose the « Arrange » menu.
     - Then you select (I'm not shure about this one in english) « Stay on the page ». Don't select « With text ». SEE IMAGE INSERTED here.
Now, what about the vertical ruler? I guess it's all gone in this version.
Also, to easily select multiple et specific objects I didn't find any way better then the shift-click avery one of them. Bummer.

I am so disappointed, I'm beside myself.
Dual monitor support I can wait, thought I'm not happy. I have two monitors, I'd like to make use of that real estate to expand the panels a bit so I can see everything. Scrolling the panels is a huge waste of time.
But batch processing is missing? Are you kidding me? Just about every event shoot I do, I need to run through Noise Ninja. I have no way to do that now.
What about batch actions? When I do a shoot with a model, I choose the RAW files I want to keep, adjust them, and then in Bridge use the "photo processor" to batch them into PSD and apply a few custom adjustment layers. I can then go into each PSD, do touch-ups as necessary. It's pretty rare that there isn't a keeper with a small wrinkle or pimple or even bruise or scratch that needs a touchup. Flyaway hairs need to be removed. Catchlights brightened. The list goes on. I have to do this one at a time in Photoshop now and can't batch it?
That pretty-much makes Lightroom useless for my workflow. I can't imagine a single fashion photographer who requires Photoshop to do any retouching would find this useful.
As for bugs... the strip at the bottom has some serious issues. When I delete a photo, it resets the strip back to the beginning. What a time-waster.
I can't delete multiple photos from the strip. Multi-select and then delete, and only the last one selected is deleted.
Select a photo, right-click on a DIFFERENT photo and choose delete, and the SELECTED photo is deleted, not the one right-clicked-on. I just trashed a keeper that way. Furthermore, if I multi-select a few photos in the strip, even if I then choose a different one to view, the file name and settings don't change - it keeps the information from the first photo in the multi-select. Making a change and presuming that the change is happening to the photo being viewed reveals that, no, the change happens to the first photo in the multi-select.
For some reason, when I sync up "develop" settings in a folder, I have to scroll the strip to get them to generate previews. Am I missing something? Shouldn't they all do their things and not require me to scroll through everything every time?
Why does it have to re-calculate the histogram EVERY SINGLE TIME, even when I don't make changes? It can't cache this data?!
I've not even gotten past working through "Library" and "Develop" and I'm already realizing that this product not only won't do everything I already do in Bridge, but will actually make my workflow TAKE LONGER.
Color me seriously unpleased.

Okay, point in favor of LR, I can look at these while the import is going on. That's nice.
So it's better. Not perfect, but better. The histogram still recalculates every time, but that's an annoyance, not a hindrance.
Now, when moving to a new picture it's blurry but the non-blurry preview comes up sub-second.
But... this is in "library" mode. When I go to "develop," the problem is back. At least 4 seconds to get a real preview. When selecting a new photo (and I should note that the three dots are NOT there at any time), the sliders in the right panel, the tone curve, and everything else I can see is dimmed-out and unavailable. Within about 2 to 3 seconds they go live and the first refresh of the preview occurs. Then, about 2 more seconds later a second refresh occurs and the image comes into focus.
It is as if the program loads the original image, then loads the preview, THEN does any processing that the develop settings would indicate. That last step should be part of the preview and cached, of course. It appears that it is not.
The entire time, the "Loading..." label is shown underneath the main preview. It disappears after about a full 6 to 8 seconds.
So yeah, with all due respect to Adobe, not even close.

I downloaded 3.6 thre times and I cannot log on. I get unable to connect and problem loading page. Prior to downloading the latest update Firefox worked great. Once downloaded it stopped working. Explorer works fine and my broadband connection is good.

I cannot launch Firefox after latest update was loaded.

Problem Solved. Great work, thanks for the prompt and accurate response. This is one reason why I strongly recommend Firefox over Explorer!

Nokia 6500 slide..Bugs and problems..

Just read some posts regarding the nokia 6500 and it seems i too am not alone with the problems on this model..
I have had nothing but problems with this phone and keeps freezing, cuts out whilst in the middle of a call and generally is the most problem ridden phone nokia must have ever produced.
I cant believe that a trusted company the size of nokia would allow a product like this to be released in the uk market.
I do also understand that nokia now have stiff competition from other manafacturers. And have to fight for the share of the market place. But releasing inferior phones that obviously havent passed the research stage Is hardly the way to keep the customers that they have..
I cant wait till my phone is repaired and put for sale on E bay..Anyone recommend a non nokia alternative...
Anyone considering a phone has to avoid a nokia 6500 slide.

From what you have read, same situation with the 6500 Classic?
I was going to get that one?
Thnx
My Nokia history: 6340, 6200, 5500, 6300, E61i, E51, E71, N79, N97 and finally E72-2.
(bought the N97, tried it for 2 days and sold immediately. I was Very disappointed with this device, NOKIA ! ) Proud Nokia shareholder.

Applescript Bugs and problems - are these known?

Ok, this stems from my post over at http://bbs.macscripter.net/viewtopic.php?pid=101473
Is it just me or is applescript a little buggered on Leopard? I've got 10.5.4 and trying to run up some simple scripts. However I've run into problems including:
- the DELAY command stops the script altogether.
- scripts to send off MAIL stop completely after sending the seventh mail.
Is anyone else experiencing this sort of problem?

From reading that other thread I don't think you're having a problem with AppleScript, I think you're having problems with Mail and Folder Actions. AppleScript is just a means of sending AppleEvents to applications. What those applications then choose to do with those events is entirely up to them, and in Mail's case, it drops the ball pretty often.
delay does not terminate a script's execution for me. The following will run indefinitely as expected:
repeat while true
delay 5
end repeat

L when doing a master reset on iPhone. Have tried turning off/on with no luck. Safe reboot displays many bugs and socket is not launched.....

Yesterday while attempting to perform a master reset on my iPhone 5, I was instructed to log onto iTunes, plug my phone in and "follow" the instructions. After connecting my phone to my Mac book pro (bought a year and a half ago), the laptop recognized my phone and immediately after that, the apple icon and spinning wheel appeared. Not realizing that it was not part of the download process, I waited a couple of hours to no avail. I was informed by the person working at the phone store that the update could take 'awhile'.....I have tried turning on and off several times, and the screen remains grey with the apple icon and spinning wheel. Just performed a safe boot using the shift - command - v key and the screen shows a long list of Bug: launchctl with a message at the bottom "socket is not connected". Any suggestions would be appreciated.

I would like to point out the fact that I mentioned my phone is iPhone 4, iOS 7.1.2
I don't care if it is a known defect in iOS 8, my phone is not iOS 8 and can not be updated past 7.1.2
Your solution will not work because I can't see the group message in the first place, deleting it would not be possible.
Also, I can not wait for the update on a phone that can no longer update.

IPhone SDK - post bugs and problems with the Firmware...

So far I'm noticing issues with the 2.0(5A225c) build of the OS.
Everything is much slower than it used to be for one. I have a simple UIViewController with a table with only 9 text elements. It doesn't even fill the screen and it scrolls like a snail. My app runs so slow, but I can't tell if it's a performance issue in my app, or a debug firmware. Even the slider to unlock is slow and so is scrolling in all OS menus.
I also noticed in Contacts that the fast slider on the right appears but does not respond to touches. So much for actually using my phone for the next few months. I hope they fix some of this stuff soon.
Anyone else noticing issues?

What a relief! I can also confirm that this build is very slow. I am writing a game called Trism (www.demiforce.com for info) which makes use of layered UIImageViews for the game pieces, scoring, borders, and so on. When beta 2 arrived, I got really disheartened because suddenly everything was moving much more slowly. I initially thought the slowdown was because of some fault in my code, which led me to learn some lower-level CoreAnimation and Quartz stuff, which has got the speed back around where it was originally.
We can only hope the slowdown is due to new features of the OS needing to be tightened up a bit, and not as a sign of things to come. Nevertheless, I encourage other developers out there to take a look at using different implementations if need be. Specifically, if your views or text labels don't require the heavy animatable features of the UIView class, try taking a look at using the lower-level CALayer class and see if that helps your performance.

I get a message when going to any webpage "server not found" or "problem loading page". I click on try again and the page loads fine. This happens on bookmarked pages or manually entered urls. The issues started after I updated Firefox.

Server not found messages and problem loading page message since I updated to the latest version of Firefox. Usually will load the 2nd time after hitting the try again option.
Does not happen with Internet Explorer at all.

Problems loading pages

I have the latest version of safari for the pc. I am running windows vista 32 bit. This version fails to load most pages normally. Like tagged, facbook and others. Are there nay know bugs and fixes. Pages load about 75% of the way and then errors show in the bottom. Any ideas? All others browsers work.

http://c2c738.r.axf8.nethttp://images.apple.com/mr/a.gif?a=C2C738&v=1
I get a bunch of these. It's a little better now but not perfect. Already cleared out cache and cookies. Any thoughts. If I get more later I will copy them. So far things are about 95% better.

Is There a Public "Bug and Issue Management System" for Strobe Media Playback?

HI all,
Is there a public "Bug and Issue Management System" for Strobe Media Playback? Or is this forum the only officially supported public mechanism for SMP bug reporting and feature requests?
(fyi, I ask in part because SMP is built on top of OSMF, and both projects are led by development teams at Adobe. The OSMF project, however, has fuller level of support including "Bug and Issue Management System" here:
https://bugs.adobe.com/jira/browse/FM )
Thank you to all of the SMP team for this great player!
Best regards,

"a user error"
Well I followed your book! Chapter 6 of the "Oracle Fusion Developer Guide - Working with Bounded Task Flows in ADF Regions". I think this comes back to book writer error. I found almost no mention of BackingBeanScope in this chapter. Don't you think this would be an important note?
"did you know that there is a Java API (on the RichPopup instance) to launch a popup ?"
Yes I posted in my code! If you read the above code you would see it there.
I don't really understand why the scope of the bean has anything to do with af:showPopupBehavior or AdfPage.PAGE.findComponent.

When I click on a aite to open it, I get a problem loading page ,and even retrying doesn't help

I am running XP media center edition. I just had to get it wiped clean and an XP program reloaded, but now when I click on a link, it try's to open another page, but says trouble loading page.

Hello Donald.
Although possibly not related to your problem, I will remind you that the version of Firefox you are using at the moment has been discontinued and is no longer supported. Furthermore, it has known bugs and security problems. I urge you to update to the latest version of Firefox, for maximum stability, performance, security and usability. You can get it for free, as always, at [http://www.getfirefox.com getfirefox.com].
As for your issue, you may be having a problem with some Firefox add-on that is hindering your Firefox's normal behavior. Have you tried disabling all add-ons (just to check), to see if Firefox goes back to normal?
Whenever you have a problem with Firefox, whatever it is, you should make sure it's not coming from one of your installed add-ons, be it an extension, a theme or a plugin. To do that easily and cleanly, run Firefox in [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode safe mode] and select ''Disable all add-ons''. If the problem disappears, you know it's from an add-on. Disable them all in normal mode, and enable them one at a time until you find the source of the problem. See [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes this article] for information about troubleshooting extensions and theme. You can troubleshoot plugins the same way.
If you want support for one of your add-ons, you'll need to contact its author.

I used to open many tabs in the same page and i move from one to other by mouse but since3 two days the tabs open in the same page normaly but i can't move from one to other when i clik with mouse on any tab it don't open/ do u have any solve for this?

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).

Problems with page and event paramters in java portlets

Hi there!
Following the documentation in "A primer on Portlet Parameters and events" and "Adding Parameters an Events to Portlets" I tried to develop two portlets (who will be at the same page), one showing some content of a repository (with possibilities to browse throw it) and another showing a sitemap of the repositories whole content, presenting links to the content's pages to be shown in the content portlet.
So I added:
1. a page parameter called pageMenuID to identify the current content page to be shown in the content portlet
2. an input parameter for content portlet called portletMenuID. This input parameter is mapped to the page parameter pageMenuID
3. an event for content portlet called changeContent with output parameter contentMenuID. When this event rises, "go to page" is set to the current page and the output parameter contentMenuID is mapped to the page parameter pageMenuID.
4. an event for sitemap portlet called changeContentFromSitemap with output parameter sitemapMenuID. When this event rises, "go to page" is set to the current page and the output parameter sitemapMenuID is mapped to the page parameter pageMenuID.
This is the code for some constants and a function to build the links in the content portlet, that I want to use:
// page parameter (shouldn't be used here)
private final static String pageParamMenuID = "pageMenuID";
// parameter names as given in providers.xml:
// portlet input parameter
private final static String inputParamMenuID = "portletMenuID";
// event name
private final static String eventName = EventUtils.eventName("changeContent");
// parameter name for event parameters
private final static String eventParamMenuID = EventUtils.eventParameter("contentMenuID");
String getEventUrl( PortletRenderRequest portletRequest, long menuID) {
NameValuePair[] eventParams = new NameValuePair[2];
eventParams[0] = new NameValuePair(eventName,"");
eventParams[1] = new NameValuePair(eventParamMenuID, "" + menuID);
try {
return PortletRendererUtil.constructLink(portletRequest, portletRequest.getRenderContext().getEventURL(),
eventParams,
true,
true);
} catch (Exception e) {
return "null";
This is the analog code from the sitemap portlet:
// page parameter defined on "edit page mode" (shouldn't be used here)
private final static String pageParamMenuID = "pageMenuID";
// parameter names as given in providers.xml:
// event name
private final static String eventName = EventUtils.eventName("changeContentFromSitemap");
// parameter name for event parameters
private final static String eventParamMenuID = EventUtils.eventParameter("sitemapMenuID");
String getEventUrl( PortletRenderRequest portletRequest, long menuID) {
NameValuePair[] eventParams = new NameValuePair[2];
eventParams[0] = new NameValuePair(eventName,"");
eventParams[1] = new NameValuePair(eventParamMenuID, "" + menuID);
try {
return PortletRendererUtil.constructLink(portletRequest, portletRequest.getRenderContext().getEventURL(),
eventParams,
true,
true);
} catch (Exception e) {
return "null";
But what actually happens is nothing. I also tried to construct the links with EventUtil.constructEventLink() with the same result. Checking the produced html-code in the browser shows that the same URLs are produced. So I'm of the opinion, that proper event links are created.
After checking the sent and received request parameters I came to the conclusion, that the event output parameters are never mapped to the page input paramters, as they should. So I changed the code to the following:
// page parameter (shouldn't be used here)
private final static String pageParamMenuID = "pageMenuID";
// parameter names as given in providers.xml:
// event name
private final static String eventName = EventUtils.eventName("changeContentFromSitemap");
// parameter name for event parameters
private final static String eventParamMenuID = EventUtils.eventParameter("sitemapMenuID");
String getEventUrl( PortletRenderRequest portletRequest, long menuID) {
NameValuePair[] eventParams = new NameValuePair[1];
eventParams[1] = new NameValuePair(pageParamMenuID, "" + menuID); <-- Note that the page parameter and not the event output parameter is used here -->
try {
return PortletRendererUtil.constructLink(portletRequest, portletRequest.getRenderContext().getEventURL(),
eventParams,
true,
true);
} catch (Exception e) {
return "null";
Now everything works fine, including addition of persistent private portlet parameters and further input/page/event parameters as well as working with a third portlet with performs a search (and presents the search results as links which change the content in content portlet).
But this is actually NOT the way it should work: The names of the page parameters are hard-coded in the portlets, so the roles of page designer and portlet developer are not separated in the way it is presented in the documentation. I coulnd't find a way to map the event output parameters to the page parameters to work this out.
Now I wonder whether there's some known bug in PDK or perhaps a mistake in the documentation or wether I'm just missing doing the right things. I've already read some postings in this forum concerning this problem (for example how to change the query??? but I think I've done all the things that are suggested there (checked the entries in provider.xml and the proper mapping of page parameters, public (input) portlet parameters and event output parameters, also the way I read the received request parameters and build the links)
Has anybody an idea what's wrong here?
Best regards
Torsten

Hi Amjad,
thank you very much for time and effort you spent on helping me solving this problem.
Unfortunately, I think I already tried what you suggest in your answer, but without success. From my experience, the following two calls:
1.
<%!
private static String eventName = "changeContent"
private static String eventParamID = "menuID"
String getEventUrl(PortalRenderRequest prr, long menuID) {
NameValuePair[] eventParams = new NameValuePair[1];
// no addition of eventName in the array
eventParams[0] = new NameValuePair(eventParamID, "" + menuID);
return EventUtils.constructEventLink(prr, eventName, eventParams, true, true);
%>
<a href="<%= getEventUrl(portletRequest, 1234) %>">some link for ID 1234</a>
2.
<%!
private static String eventName = EventUtils.eventName("changeContent");
private static String eventParamID = EventUtils.eventParameter("menuID");
String getEventUrl(PortalRenderRequest prr, long menuID) {
NameValuePair[] eventParams = new NameValuePair[2];
eventParams[0] = new NameValuePair(eventParamID, "" + menuID);
eventParams[0] = new NameValuePair(eventName,"");
return PortletRendererUtil.constructLink(prr, prr.getRenderContext().getEventURL(), eventParams, true, true);
%>
<a href="<%= getEventUrl(portletRequest, 1234) %>">some link for ID 1234</a>
produce identical links. I took the second way because it is easer to add private portlet parameters to the link: just as additional NameValuePairs in the eventParam- Array (name constructed with HttpPortletRendererUtil.portletParameter()), instead of constructing the link "by hand" as mentioned in the javadoc for constructEventLink(). I have to add these private portlet parameters here because when an event from a private parameters owning portlet is fired, the private parameters are lost (in difference to when an event from ANOTHER portlet is sent).
So I think, when you also look closely to the code snippet I added in the first posting, I made shure that I added the name of the event and not just the event parameters to the link.
I hope that I understood your answer right. Perhaps you have another idea what might be wrong. Thank you again,
best regards
Torsten

IPod classic displays 'No music' after sync, HDD problem? Geschiedenis • Verwijder So recently I synced my iPod Classic 160 GB like I did so many times and when I wanted to play some music afterwards it couldn't find any files on the iPod anymore. H

So recently I synced my iPod Classic 160 GB like I did so many times and when I wanted to play some music afterwards it couldn’t find any files on the iPod anymore. However when you look in the settings it displays that ~roughly 90 GB free space is available. Seen the fact that I had about 60 gigs of music this doesn’t seem like a coincidence and I think my music is still somewhere on the ipod but the HDD isn’t recognizing it anymore.
I’ve tried resetting it, and resetting it to factory settings, which didn’t work. When connected to a desktop it won’t be recognized by iTunes, it displays an error message that the iPod cannot be read and that I have to reset it to factory settings.
I’ve spent some time researching this problem yesterday and I ran into a myriad of vaguely similar problems didn’t really offer any help. Currently I’m thinking that formatting the iPod might work, and restoring the software afterwards. However this is a rather bold strategy so I’d like to consult you here first.
Thanks in advance!

Hi turingtest2,
Thank you for the info, with formatting my iPod I managed to connect it to iTunes again.
However..in the page you linked to there is a section about how transferring large amounts of data can dump your library. That seems to be the problem in this case. It won't even allow me to transfer more than 2 gigabytes of music per sync, if I go higher it will dump everything again. Having over >60 GB of music in my library, this is disastrous to say the least.
Do you think that there is any other solution besides the method you mentioned involving Smart Playlists?

Many bugs and problems in Pages 5.0
