Merge to HDR processes and then disappears

I am using a Canon EOS 60D with AEB settings to have exposure levels of -2, 0, +2 with the drive mode set to take all 3 shots rapidly at once.
I am using a tripod and remote to take the shots and all 3 are taken in about half a second with still-life subjects and in CR2 camera raw format.
For some reason, when I use Merge to HDR Pro, it appears that the images are processing and then the window disappears. No file created, no merge to hdr pro window, nothing...
I screen captured an example of the problem in action here: http://plirt.com/hdrfail.mov
After searching tirelessly, I found one other person that had the same problem. He indicated that running updates resolved his problem. My CS5 suite is completely up to date and the problem still persists.
Has anybody else seen this problem before?
Any help would be appreciated.

Hi Eric,
Would you please try a few more things for us?
Go to Photoshop > Preferences > Interface..
View checkbox for Open Documents as Tabs.
If it is OFF (unchecked), please turn it ON and click [OK].
Retry Merge to HDR Pro...
If that does not make the issue go away, then...
Could you make a copy of your Preferences file someplace safe, then restart Photoshop with clean prefs.
Here’s how:
Close Photoshop.
Make a copy of ~/Library/Preferences/Adobe Photoshop CS5 Settings/
Launch PS with Command, Option and Shift held down as it launches, click "Yes" when it asks if you want to delete the preferences file.
If this magically cures the issue, please send us (Chris Cox and myself) your back-up of the original Preference File.
Thanks for your help and patience,
Meredith

I downloaded and installed Production Premuim CS5 on my computer and when I try to open it out of the applications folder it bounces at the bottom and then disappears.

I downloaded and installed Production Premuim CS5 on my computer and when I try to open it out of the applications folder it bounces at the bottom and then disappears. Does anyone know why this is? I've tried everything to open them but they will not open. Does anyone else have this problem?

I have a mac osx version 10.9.2. I used to have the student version of creative cloud cs6 earlier this year. I cancelled my subscription several months ago and bought cs5 two weeks ago. I never had any problems with the cloud. I went through the entire download process for CS5, and they all showed up in my applications folder and appeared to have downloaded but every time I try to open them they bounce around next to the application manager icon and then disappear.

Pictures in iPhoto 6 library flash and then disappear but leave a box

OSX 10.5.8 iPhoto 6
pictures in library flash and then disappear but leave an empty box

Try these in order - from best option on down...
1. Do you have an up-to-date back up? If so, try copy the library6.iphoto file from the back up to the iPhoto Library allowing it to overwrite the damaged file.
2. Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.
3. If neither of these work then you'll need to create and populate a new library.
To create and populate a new *iPhoto 6* library:
Note this will give you a working library with the same Rolls and pictures as before, however, you will lose your albums, keywords, modified versions, books, calendars etc.
Move the iPhoto Library to the desktop
Launch iPhoto. It will ask if you wish to create a new Library. Say Yes.
Go into the iPhoto Library on your desktop and find the Originals folder. From the Originals folder drag the individual Roll Folders to the iPhoto Window and it will recreate them in the new library.
When you're sure all is well you can delete the iPhoto Library on your desktop.
In the future, in addition to your usual back up routine, you might like to make a copy of the library6.iPhoto file whenever you have made changes to the library as protection against database corruption.

Im sure this is a complette mystery and has never ever edver happened to anyone else. But when i start firefox it appears on my screen and then disappears. Why am i the first person these bugs always occur to?

i have the latest version im running vista. i dont know if you would define it as a crash but it simply disappears. I know you want more information, right . ?what part of disappears dont you understrand? is no one keeping track. have not a million people wriiteeen in to say the browser started and then disappeared? there is no crash id. just thjrow me a bone would ya?

A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

BluRay Burner and DVD Burner will access the disk and then disappear and then access the disk again constantly.

Hi, I have a Dell system maxed out. I have both a DVD Burner and a BluRay Burner drive in the system. I just had to replace the fan on the CPU as the plastic that would hold it onto the mother board broke. I have a 120GB SSD as my main
and a 600GB 10,000 RPM drive as my secondary drive. Because I did not realize the Fan was the problem keeping the system from booting up all the way. Which never had any problems before I had to put the system into storage when I retired from the Air
Force last year. So any ways I rebuilt the system back with Windows 7 Ultimate. Everything was working fine. So I started installing all my other programs. Over the next several days I did not notice any problems. Until I went
to play one of my games that requires a Disk to be in the drive to verify it was a OEM disk. When I went to play I noticed the game kept asking for the disk even though the disk was already in the drive. Went to my System display and noticed that
the disk would show up for a few seconds and then disappear and then the drive would access the disk again and then disappear. This keeps happening in both my drives. I have read though the forums and this is not anything to do with the disk drive
disappearing that I see all over the forums. Also, when I start the computer up from the DVD or BluRay drive it starts up with no problems. So it is not anything to do with the hardware. I believe this is something to do with some software I may
have installed or something, but I don't believe it is hardware. Now I see that it has duplicated my Two optical media drives. If I can't get someone to help me fix this, I may have to go through the process and re-install the system and my other
software to see if that fixes the problem. Like I said I have never had this problem before.
Thanks in advance if anyone has any ideas.

If the paste wasn't changed it will lead to heating problems, something that will show in different ways all the time, but thsi isn't the issue here.
Could it bee that you accidentally moved the cables to the drive on the motherboard when you changed the fan? Make sure it's correctly connected in both ends.
It could also be that the drivers for the SATA-controller needs to be updated, try and download the latest ones from the manufacturers webpage.

I tried to install yosemite yesterday and my computer goes through the whole installation process and then to a blank white screen. I've rebooted, I've reinstalled several times and get the same result. Two days wasted!

I tried to install yosemite yesterday and my computer goes through the whole installation process and then to a blank white screen. I've rebooted, I've reinstalled several times and get the same result. Two days wasted and I can't use my computer!!

I don't know if you've already resolved your problem, but I had the same thing, it took me 6 hours to fix it. I had the exact same as you, installed the update and then it went to a white screen. After trying start up holding down cmmd r or holding down the alt key to try to install it again, nothing worked, same result every time. Then an angel came to me here somewhere but I can't find it now to thank him. Start in safe mode, press shift once you hear the start up chime and hold it down until you hear it again. Installation completion box came up and it was working. turn off computer and start up again normally and all is well. Except my final cut pro x doesn't work with it, have to update that now too. same as when I updated to mavericks.
Hope this helps.

I have a football game recorded on a DVD R disc that I was trying to view on my MacBook using DVD Player. The video comes onto the screen, but immediately freezes, and then disappears. An error message comes up saying that DVD player unexpectedly quit.

I have a football game recorded on a DVD+R disc that I was trying to view on my MacBook using DVD Player. The video comes onto the screen, but immediately freezes, and then disappears. An error message comes up saying that DVD player unexpectedly quit. My MacBook operating system is Mac OS X, version 10.5.8. DVD Player is App version 5.0.3, framework version 5.0.7.
However, the DVD+R works on both my Dad's and my brother's laptops. My Dad's laptop is an iBook G4 with Mac OS X operating system, version 10.3.9. The DVD Player is version 4.0. My brother's laptop is a MacBook Pro with Mac OS X operating system, version 10.7.2. The DVD Player is App version 5500.26.1 and framework version 5.5.0. The DVD+R plays fine on their laptops, but will not play on mine.

Lao Bo,
yes, you can locate and copy a file from your HD to a USB key using UNIX commands. If you know the exact name of the file which you’re trying to locate, try this:
find / -iname filename -print
This command will search your entire internal disk for the particular filename. If you know that it’s within a particular user account, then you can save search time with this variation:
find /Users/username -iname filename -print
Either variation of this command will print all files found which have the given filename. Presuming that you’re able to identify the correct file, you can copy it to a USB key using the command
cp -p filename_returned_by_find /Volumes/USB_volume
If you’re not sure which volume name your USB key has, this command will show you what the possibilities are:
ls /Volumes
Please let me know if you have any trouble with these commands.

Officejet Pro 8600 Wireless Setup -Printing shows in Queue and then disappears. Not Printing

I just received the Officejet Pro 8600 as a gift and loaded the set up software and it on my wireless network. When I try to print an email or a coupon, the command goes to the printer and shows in the queue. Then after several seconds, the printing queue (job) disappears without printing the document. Does this command go through the HP ePrint function or the Network Officejet Pro 8600? It shows the HP ePrint as being on USB.
I've run all of the diagnostics, downloaded all of the new software, firmware and updates. I've spend many hours trying to get the printer to print.
Thank you for any help you can provide.

Hi @bksechols
Welcome to the HP Support Forums. I understand that when you send a print job to your Officejet 8600 printer that it goes to the print queue and then disappears without the print job printing.
To better assist you, would you please provide some additional information?
How is the printer connected (USB cable, ethernet, or wireless)?
What operating system are you using?
Are all print jobs failing? If yes and you are using a Windows operating system, please Try the HP Print and Scan Doctor for Windows. The HP Print and Scan Doctor is a free utility (tool) that helps to quickly resolve common printing, scanning and connectivity issues.
When you send a print job are emailing the printer’s ePrint email address? If so please review The HP ePrint Print Job Did Not Print If you are sending the print job by using the print command, please review the Print Jobs from Your HP Printer are Stuck in the Print Queue document.
I look forward to hearing from you.

Halt/stop a process and then resume again

Hi frns,
I m implementing an application in which i want to add a specila functionality which is described as below :
suppose there is a folder and it contains 5 files.
FOLDER
- FILE 1
- FILE 2
- FILE 3
- FILE 4
- FILE 5
Now I have to send the folder to another pc in internet or any network.
So i will read the contents of all the files and send it to the server.
For this I will zip the folder (with all inside files being zipped) and then read the file in buffer and send to the othere computer.
Now the trouble is that if while zipping the folder; I have zipped FILE 1, FILE 2 and then while zipping FILE 3 there is some problem and the pc gets shutdown or the electricity is no more. So when the pc restarts I want to restart the process of zipping the file FILE 3 and then FILE 4 , FILE 5. and then send to the server.
So wht i am saying is that we should be able to store the status of every step and if there is some interruption in the process and then it restarts again then the status should be resumed and started at that point.
For this, I have one solution that :
when ever a file is being zipped in I will make one file and store the status that FILE 1 is zipped ,then FILE 2 zipped, ie.
FILE 1 ZIP START
FILE 1 ZIP FINISH
FILE 2 ZIP START
FILE 2 ZIP FINISH
and if process stops during zip of FILE 3 then the the status file will contain the entry
FILE 3 ZIP START
it will not contain the FINISH entry.
Now if the process shuts down and restarts I will read the file and see the status for the zipping process.
So I will find that there is no entry for FILE 3 FINISH .so I will start from FILE 3 ZIP process and then complete the process.
This should happen for every step (after zip of FILE 1 or 2 or 3 ..........., or some other task)
But the problem is that this process of handling the process resuming is tedious and will be inefficient when there are so many processes.
So can anyone tell me that is there any other way to do this or is there any inbuilt facility in java to handle such problems.
Thanks for your time and consideration

Hi,
You probably need that file that you are talking about (transaction log of whatever you want to call it) but I don't understand why you need to write down the start info. Finished is enough.

fault message type

Hi Spring,
If u give an exception step along with your Transformation Step, whenever some error occurs in your message mapping, this exception block wil be triggered.
You can configure your exception block to do all exception processing that you want. This exception handling is like any other java Exceptio n Handler. You can do anything that you want in your exception handler block on the basis of your requirements.
<i>If an exception is triggered at runtime, the system first searches for the relevant exception handler in surrounding blocks. If it does not find the correct exception handler, it continues the search in the next block in the block hierarchy.
When the system finds the correct system handler, it stops all active steps in the block in which the exception handler is defined and then continues processing in the exception handler branch. Once the exception handler has finished processing, the process is continued after the block.
If the system fails to find an exception handler, it terminates the integration process with an error.</i>

I have version 10.0 and this week the vertical lines in tables stopped showing up, they appear and then disappear, does not happen in any other browser.

When I have a table with columns, the vertical lines show up and then disappear. The right side and bottom lines show up and the top and left side lines are very light with no vertical lines showing to separate the columns.
This just happened this week. It does not matter what size I make the screen, once they disappear, they do not show back up. IE and Google Chrome have no problem with the lines showing up.

Does it help if you resize that window one or more pixels?
