Milky / Cloudy ghosted view & can't switch to story view

I do layout work on a magazine and export stories for the editor using a Dropbox Incopy workflow. I use Indesign CS6 and the editor uses Incopy CS6.
The editor was complaining that when she opened the files, everything looks "milky" or "cloudy" and it takes forever to open and crashes a lot upon opening. I have a Creative Cloud subscription but it doesn't include InCopy, so I downloaded a demo and tried opening our Indesign file and here's what I've noticed:
When my application default is set to Story view, I have the same problem my editor describes. There is only one tab, and it says Story view, even though what I'm seeing is Layout view. Everything has is covered in transparent white but if you change to preview mode, it goes away and you can see the document correctly.
If I change my app preference to Layout view (with no docs open) and then open the Indesign file, it opens correctly in Layout view with the 3 tabs for the 3 views. And it looks right in Standard mode. However, if I try to select Galley view, it takes a really long time to switch (spinning beach ball) but it does work eventually. If I select a small story and check it out, then try to switch to Story view, it just hangs and I have to force quit.
This is a 64-page journal that is mostly text. All of the Incopy stories are exported to the Links folder in the dropbox, and the Links folder is on the same level as the Indesign file. We are opening the Indesign file via Incopy; we don't use assignments.
Is this a known software problem, or perhaps a plugin incompatibility? My editor obviously has the same problem and is using an older mac than I am.
I'm using InCopy CS6 version 8.0.1.
My Mac is about 3 weeks old - it's a quad-core MacBook Pro 15 inch Retina display with 16 GB of RAM.

Anne Marie Concepcion was kind enough to look at my files, and correctly identified the problem. The problem was that we had a LOT of tracked changes in all of the stories, and it was a 64-page document with lots of stories in it. So, there were thousands of tracked changes that were just too much for Incopy to parse.
We were using tracked changes but not checking and accepting them. I didn't realize this was necessary; I thought it was just as a backup in case we wondered who changed something and when.
As Anne Marie suggested, I opened the Indesign file, checked out all the stories, and accepted all the tracked changes. Going forward, I need to make sure I accept the tracked changes from time to time, to clear out the backlog.
I reopened the file from InCopy and it worked fine; I could access all 3 views and it displayed properly. So, if anyone else has the same problem I had, try accepting your tracked changes.

Not happy with Calendar View - Can we get a weekly view?

There seems to be no in-between for the calendar view. You can look at the monthly view which shows no detail, or you can look at the daily view which gives you only one day. List view skips days where you have no entries. There must be a graphical way to see what you have going on for the week. Anyone have any ideas? Could this be a future plug-in app?

Problems switching from Story View to Layout View

Hey,
When I'm writing a story in story view everything looks okay but as soon as I change the view to layout view all of my "hn" gets changed to a "ç"
Does anyone know what this would be happening or how to fix it?
Wrote a story about a John and his name got switched to Joç every time.
Thanks for any help!

You need to provide some more details. What font are you using in Layout view? Are you using a different language than English? You're obviously inputting the correct characters in Story view but it sounds like the font applied to the text is not supporting those characters which is odd. Details please.

CAN'T SWITCH TO THUMBNAIL VIEW IN ORGANIZE AN ALBUM

Just loaded Tiger on my Titanium and it did not come with
iLife or iPhoto 5, so I'm stuck with iPhoto 2 for a while...
One thing I noticed after moving from Panther to Tiger is when
I chose Organize for an Album, the pics are no longer thumbnails and each pic is big making moving them around and
rearranging the order rather difficult as I have to use the scroll bar to get to the one I want to move and then drag it
up or down... The thumbnail view was so handy, How can I toggle back to the thumbnailview in Organize... I've tried
everything I can think of with no luck.... HELP???

THANK YEW!!! God bless this forum and all you helpful MAC freaks!!!

Switching from one View to another in the Portal

Hi Experts,
We have created many global views from one query. We have created these in thr portal.
Our problem is when we switch from one view to another, it will carry all the filter values from the previous view. Ideally we only want to pass the values from the variable entry, not the filter values local to the view.
Does anyone of you knows how to solve this problem? I am trying to look at the Customer exit... and do something with the mapping. But this one will affect all the drill-downs. Any thoughts?
Best Regards,
Rose

Hi,
I have somehow solved it using the exit. In this case the source and target query is really the same because we are just switching from one view to another using the the same query. What I did in the exit was:
- If the source and target query are the same.
- remove all the mappings except the ones with object types "Variables".
This ensures that:
1) I only apply this logic if the source and destination query is the same.
2) The restrictions that will be applied to the destination view when I switch
from one view to another will always be only be the paramater values
(default or entered by the user) when they first run the query.
Best Regards,
Rose

Viewing Portfolio PDF on iPad: Content Viewer or other?

Adobe Content Viewer: Can it be used to view regular PDF's (created in InDesign, not using DPS)?
I am trying to find the best way (app) to show my portfolio on the iPad. Should I use another app instead? Any suggestions? Thank you!

You can create a .folio and preview it on your iPad by using a free DPS account. To create an application you have to create a paid account, or purchase a one-time licence. Take a look at this FAQ on side loading for more help: http://forums.adobe.com/message/3666113#3666113

Dreamweaver CC crashes when switching from code view to design view

I am experiencing a recent problem with a file I am currently working. When I switch from code view to design view Dreamweaver crashes and requests a shut down. Other files seem to work without a problem. This particular files has 3 cascading EdgeAnimation CC files that are selected by media queries. I can test the page online without a problem but not in design or live view.

Since your new page didn't crash, this leads me to believe that you have some critical errors and/or conflicts in your other page(s).

Power View can only print one sheet at a time with Power BI Mobile Apps

I have PowerView for Excel 2013 on Power BI Preview. I have 2 reports sheet and 2 hidden data sheets on Excel.
I'm getting error on Mobile Application in Windows 8 RT tablet.
I should see 4 reports in preview page, but I see 2 correct reports and 2 errors.
Power View can only print one sheet at a time. Please switch to the desired sheet and try again.
Why this occurs? What should done in Excel?
Kenny_I

Thank you for reporting this issue. This is a known issue that we had fixed last week. In a few days, the updated version of the app will be available in the Windows store. At that time, your app should automatically get updated to the newest version, if
you have not changed your default settings.
If you still experience issues next week this time, please post back and perhaps share your workbook, so we can do a thorough investigation.
Thank you.

In Flash Builder: "No Disk" Error when trying to switch to Design View

Just had Flash Builder Beta 1 uninstalled and Beta 2 installed instead.
When I try to switch to Design View or open a link from Start Page in Flash Builder Beta 2, the application freezes and "No Disk" error message pops up.

You have some other problem with your boot drive that has corrupted data backed up to the TimeMacine drive.
My advice is to boot into each operating system and manually backup just your Users files each to separate regular external drives (no Timemachine or backup software) and disconnect.
Make a note of any serial numbers, emails, address book contacts, export bookmarks etc. that isn't typically in your users folders data.
You might be able to Winclone 3 the Windows as a whole thing as it's appearing not to have issues but it's your MacintoshHD partition that is so that will have to be rebuilt from scratch.
Most commonly used backup methods
If your OS X parititon doesn't boot, you can use this to recover files.
Create a data recovery/undelete external boot drive
Without any further detail about your machine I can't advise specifically what to do, but it involves using Disk Utility to Zero Erase (move slider one spot to the right or in 10.6 using Security Option) the ENTIRE boot drive and reformatting, then installing OSX fresh and then setting up BootCamp again.
If you wish to switch your boot drive for something better, this is a good time to do this.
Install/upgrade RAM or storage drive in Mac's
If your machine is capable of Internet Recovery, then use that, then upgrade.
If your machine came with 10.6 or earlier, then use the 10.6 install disks and work up from there.
Erase, formatting, OS X installs on Mac's

Switching from text view to visual view in SharePoint Designer 2013 crashes 100% of the time

Whenever I am in SharePoint Designer 2013 and try to switch a workflow from text view to visual view, SharePoint Designer crashes. Text workflows work fine. I have tried any of the solutions that I could find including:
- Removing KB2837633 and 2768006 (neither were installed)
- Installing SharePoint Designer 2013 SP1 (KB2817441)
- Performing a "Repair" on both SharePoint Designer 2013 and Visio 2013
- Clearing the caches in the AppData directory
- Setting Visual as the default mode for workflows to open in (so, not exactly switching, but trying to open it directly in the visual view)
Event viewer reports that it is an issue with Microsoft.Web.Authoring.ni.dll which throws an unhandled exception, System.AccessViolationException.

IPad won't switch to landscape view

I updated my software on my iPad and now it won't switch to landscape view and it is not locked. I have restarted it and cleared my memory and checked every setting that I can think of. What now?

By restart do you mean a reset ? If there isn't a lock symbol at the top of the screen next to the battery indicator then try a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
Is there is a lock symbol then depending on what you've got Settings > General > Use Side Switch To set to (rotation lock or mute notifications), then you can lock/unlock the rotation by the switch on the right hand side of the iPad, or via the taskbar : double-click the home button; slide from the left; and it's the icon far left; press home again to exit the taskbar. The function that isn't on the side switch is set via the taskbar instead : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4085

SharePoint Online switching to mobile view when attempting to add user permissions

Hello,
I am having a very weird problem that just started out of no where. It happens when I go to the Site Settings of my site collection and click on Site Permissions. When I click Grant Permissions to try to add users, the browser will immediately switch to
the mobile view.
I am able to switch back to the regular browser view, then when I click Grant Permissions, the box to select the user opens. I then choose the user and click Share. After clicking Share, the popup immediately goes to the mobile view. When I exit that the
users were never granted permissions.
This only happens so far when I am trying to add permissions. Is there something that I could have messed up?
What is happening and how can I fix this? I am out of ideas and unable to add permissions for users. I do not want to have to blow this site collection away.
Thanks.

Hi Andy,
According to your description, my understanding is that the page would switch to mobile view when attempting to add user permissions in SharePoint Online.
I recommend to verify the things below:
Clear the caches in browser to see if the issue still occurs.
Test the same scenario in another computer to see if the issue still occurs.
Append mobile=0 to the URLs in SharePoint Online.
In the meanwhile, you can post your question to the forum for SharePoint Online: http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/msonline/en-US/home?forum=onlineservicessharepoint.
More experts will assist you, then you will get more information relation to SharePoint Online.
Best regards.
Thanks

How do I switch to list view in the Pages local directory

How can I switch from a grid of file icons to a list of filenames in Pages for iPad ?

I don't believe there is no way to change views. It's something that I wish was there to reduce the real estate taken by these icons.
