Missing F4V codec in format option, fresh install
Hi!
Just installed and updated AE CS4 trial and set some cuepoint in my video. Followed some tutorials showing f4v export. f4v is supposed to be one of the included 'codecs' available in the output module > format option. I only find FLV and NOT f4v. Where is it??? Do I need to install some additional codec pack or activate it???
Thanks

Rick is right. F4V (which is a container format, not a codec) uses the H.264 codec. H.264 is an MPEG codec, so this note from "Supported output formats" applies:
"Note: The free trial version of Adobe After Effects software does not include some features that depend upon software licensed from parties other than Adobe. For example, mocha for After Effects, some effect plug-ins, and some codecs for encoding and decoding MPEG formats are available only with the full version of Adobe After Effects software."

Unable to open PNG, save for web, and missing half of the format options under save as.
Using Windows 7 Professional 64-Bit with SP1.
When using Photoshop CC 64-Bit, i am unable to save for web, open PNG, or save as for about half the format options. I don't have any additional plugins installed, nor have I messed with the plugins folder.
When trying to open PNG files it says: Could not complete your request because it is not the right kind of document.
Photoshop CC 32-Bit works without any of these issues. I'll be switching to 32-Bit until this is resolved. Hoping I don't have to uninstall/reinstall (Install files are huge and take forever to download and I don't know how to save them to the hard drive with CC, thanks).
ChrisSounds like you are missing some of the required plugins - possibly an updater failed, or someone moved/deleted the wrong directory.
Yes, you'll need to reinstall to restore the missing plugins. -
How to do a fresh install of Yosemite?
Hey,
I know a lot of people have been asking about formatting and fresh install, and there are several articles in the internet related to this matter. Despite all of those articles and instructions, I have not been able to accomplish what I'm trying.
I bought a late 2011 Macbook Pro from my previous employee, so the laptop's full of work related material. Since I don't need any of it anymore, I want everything (and I mean absolutely everything) erased, so that nothing can be recovered.
I have a bootable USB stick with Yosemite in it, but my problem is that I cannot seem to get everything formatted. I managed to format the Recovery HD (don't need it), but I am not able to release that memory (650 MB) for the main HDD (in other words, I can not merge them). So in Disk Utility I have the HDD listed, and below it a blank disk. There's also something called "disk2" with "Mac OS X Base System" below it, which I have not been able to erase despite all the articles that have been trying to explain how it's done. The third item's a grayed out "SuperDrive", which is totally unfamiliar to me. I have no idea what it is.
Any ideas how to get everything erased? Bare in mind that I'm not too tech savvy with Macs, so I need very specific instructionsThe "Superdrive" is the Optical Disc Drive (CD/DVD)

ML Hosed Up My Mini - Can I Do Fresh Install?
I have posted a couple questions, but still no success at getting the upgrade to go through.
When I installed (now, at least ten times) the install goes ok with no problems. The Mini restarts, goes into panic and then restart...repeat, repeat etc.
I upgraded from 10.7.4 and have had the Mini as a work system since early 2009 (ML Supported) and NEVER had a single problem. During the panic I see a flash of a black scree that mentions something about cpu 2.
I have looked around and found all my files, so nothing will be lost if I do a format and fresh install, but can I?
Is it possible to format disk and do fresh install of ML on my Mini? If so, what are the steps?
Thank you.You can create a bootable installer of ML. You need the installer package you downloaded from the Mac App Store.
Open the package, and look for a disk image file named InstallESD.dmg and mount it. Then drag the mounted image to disk utility and restore it to a USB stick (you will lose everything on that stick).
The stick must have only one partition for this to work. After restoring is finished, boot from the stick and you will be able to erase your main disk and perform a clean install (you will lose everything on your main disk if you choose to erase it). -
Hello,
my problem is with importing saved .json backup file in fresh installed firefox 3.6.8? Message "unable to process the backup file", when i choosed option "Restore" from menu "organize your bookmarks" !?
Normally that i followed all instructions from your support site, and that i tried many things, but nothing helped :( !?
my .json file isn't corrupted cause it was saved on another partition before formatting my OS.
Please don't tell me that my bookmarks are lost :( cause i had many important things in that bookmarks, on 100.s pages :( ....
Thanks in advance!
Sincerely,

Can you restore that JSON backup in a new profile?
Did you make sure that it is really a JSON backup and that there is no missing or hidden other file extension?
A JSON backup starts with: {"title":"","id":1,"dateAdded"
A HTML backup starts with: <!DOCTYPE NETSCAPE-Bookmark-file-1>
You can try if you can restore that JSON backup in a new profile.
Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems
See Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile
If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile (be careful not to copy corrupted files)
See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Transferring_data_to_a_new_profile_-_Firefox
Please for administration of this support site, make possibility to quote someone's answer, on this way is dificult to answer somebody who wrote some suggestion!
No, i can't restore JSON backup in new profile, even on fresh installed OS XP SP3, with fresh installation of latest version of firefox!
MAN I TOLD YOU 10X IT'S 200 % JSON BACKUP FILE!!! I'M NOT IN IT FROM YESTERDAY, I WORK IN IT 12 YEARS!!!
I tried restoring json backup in new profile, but nothing, i couldn't restore, cause that stupid error from screen shot which i posted again appears !

well where to start, after hours of thought i decided it would be a good idea to format/erase my harddrive so i could do a fresh install of os x, after reading up briefly i was lead to believe the best way to do this would be through disk utilities, i restarted my mac mini what was running maverick, and got myself into the disk utilities startup menu i then proceeded to format/erase my hd and rename it, from what i can tell it was all done correctly, osx format journal option ect.. i restarted the mac and then had the utilities options open i was looking for something to suggest to boot from usb\ external source as my copy of osx is on a drive. i worked it out that i had to do another restart and use command c to boot from the drive, but when i restarted the mac all that came up was internet recovery.. i have completely lost the option to use disk utilities somehow, i have tried to do the internet recovery twice and have managed to get to the end and the computer restarts the apple logo shows and then all of a sudden i get the grey flashing folder.. i really have run out of ideas of what has gone wrong spent hours trying to find out what could of happened to disk utilities option as it isnt even a option anymore upon start up and im going to be lost without my mac if i cant get it sorted soon as i use it for music production,
thanks for any help in advanceWell you should run the internet restore, as obviously it already has erased the drive.

'Subfolder format' option missing from iPhoto '11 (v. 9.2.3)
Hi all,
I am trying to export all 697 events (60,565 pics/videos) in my iPhoto library to an external hard disk. I want to export them in the same folder structure, retaining the event names. I am not so fussed about retaining file names. After researching how to do this on the web, it appears that I should be able to do this easily using iPhoto '11 export options, however, the 'Subfolder format' option is missing from my export options box, even when I have selected multiple events.
Can anyone help me out please?
Thanks,
SarahThe sub folder feature is available in iPhoto 9.4.3. I don't know about the earlier iPhoto 9 (11) versions. If you installed iPhoto from the iLife 11 disk you will have installed iPhoto 9.0 or 9.1. You can use the following updaters to get to 9.4.3:
1 - update to iPhoto 9.2.1
2 - update to iPhoto 9.3
3 - update to iPhoto 9.3.2
4 - update to iPhoto 9.4
5 - and finally to iPhoto 9.4.3 -

Guys, I been in the business working on PC and MAC for years. So I am not green at this, I was looking for some kind of option to get past the boot loader.. Which is failing.
I know how to boot into these modes.. Done tons of research before posting and couldn't find anything.
It will not go into Internet Recovery, or any thing else. I hear the sound .. then that is it.. I get nothing else..
I have tried clearing the NVRAM which is Option + Command + P + R
Still nothing..
So I thought I would try here to see if maybe there was some trick out there someone might know of that would work.
What else guys? I am hitting th keys right.. -

[SOLVED] Fresh Install - LXDE - Missing Window Decorations
Hi folks,
I just did a fresh install on my netbook (Asus 1000h) which went flawless as allways. I did install Xorg, the relevant intel drivers, some small stuff like screen and the like and then went on to install LXDE as the desktop environment + the murrine gtk engine and some murrine themes. Everything is working, the murrine theme etc, except one thing: The window decorations are missing completely.
This is the first time sth. like that happened to me after a fresh install and I'm not really sure what could be missing and 3 hours after trying to delete my ~/.config ~./local folders (I'm using a backup of my ~ - I've checked permissions etc.) I'm ranning out of ideas. I'd be glad for any pointers as to how to debug this or what could possibly cause this.
Thanks in advance.
Last edited by chimeric (2009-05-07 11:50:41)LXDE does not provide a window manager (and window decorator). They just strongly advise to use OpenBox. On ArchLinux, the group of packages "lxde" doesn't install OpenBox, so you have to install it by yourself, or install another WM. Then, you will need to configure the way you launch X so OpenBox is used.
You may refer to http://lxde.org/lxde .

I have a used iMac, HD wiped clean, OS 10.6.8 freshly installed w/Rosetta, Photoshop Elements was installed but won't start saying "could not complete because of missing or invalid personalization info." is previous owner's name somehow still there preventing initialing? How do I remove and install my own? I don't understand as HD was completely wiped with no OS when I got it.
I think Adobe allows their software to be installed on 2 computers only. However, if say you buy another computer and wish to install PSE on the new computer ( effectively a 3rd computer as far as Adobe is concerned ) PSE needs to be properly uninstalled ie not simply by uninstalling using the operating system's uninstall process. It needs to be uninstalled using the Adobe uninstall process that is contained within the software.
You should then be given a prompt as to whether you will be reinstalling on the same computer or if you wish to remove altogether. If the latter, then all traces are removed and the software can be (re) installed on the new computer.
If, unknown to yourself, the software had been installed on 2 computers and although you or the previous may have wiped the hard drive clean, as far as Adobe is concerned the software is still ' registered / assigned ' to 2 computers.
If the previous owner bought a new computer and installed their PSE on it, wiped the hard drive clean without properly uninstalling/removing PSE thentherein probably lies the prblem.
As Allan Jones said, it 's probably worth your while to purchase your own copy.
Hope this helps. -
Adding a currency in numbers missing custom format option
I just paid for numbers latest version June 2012. iPad 3' v5.1.1. Want to format a cell as a currency not in the little list chosen by apple. Forums suggest using the custom format option but I can not see this anywhere? Any ideas how to add a custom format or how to extend the list of currencies to all currencies. If nothing else missing out a countries currency as too unimportant to include is just plain rude!
1) You posted to the Numbers on Mac OS X forum ( Apple Support Communities > iWork > Numbers > Discussions ). The iWork for iOS forum is more likely to provide the direct answer...
it is here: https://discussions.apple.com/community/app_store/iwork_for_ios
2) you can add custom formats (demonstrating from Numbers for Mac OS X) by opening the cells inspector:
Then naming the new format and setting the parameters of the format:
If the currency symbol is not in the list then you can preceed (or follow) the value with the proper symbol:
I decided to demonstrate this by showing a preceeding infinity sign before the amount: -
I was trying to do a fresh instal of Mountain Lion. By fresh I mean clean.
Firstly, my iMac disc drive isn't really working to well, so I have Mountain Lion on a usb.
I started up and held the option key.
Entered into disc utility mode, and started doing everything correct.
Then near at the end I when i'm required to select a start up disc it doesnt show anything... Help?
I checked around online and saw this tutorially and notice I had done something different.
http://macs.about.com/od/MountainLion/ss/How-To-Perform-A-Clean-Install-Of-Os-X- Mountain-Lion-On-A-Startup-Drive.htm
on page 2. where it says
When Disk Utility opens, select your Mac's startup volume from the list of devices. If you never changed its name, the startup volume will be listed as Macintosh HD. Be sure to select the volume name and not the device name, which will usually be the name of the physical drive, for instance, "500 GB WDC WD5."
I think I may have selected the device name. Is this the cause of my problem?
Can I fix this ? Please help?
I live in Auckland in New Zealand, I don't have any apple stores hereOk, I realized that won't work, I don't think, because you can't enable it on your Mac.
However, if you have another Mac, you can use Firewire Target Disk Mode to install. Boot your Mac while holding down the T key. You will see a FireWire symbol on the screen. Then, connect the two with a Firewire cable. Your Mac hard drive will show up on the other. Try to install onto that.
This may not work, depending on the other Mac. If it is similar to yours, it should.
I'm not sure if you can do it the other way. If you put the DVD into the other Mac and boot it into Target Disk Mode, then boot yours holding down the option key, you may be able to select the DVD on the other Mac as the startup.
This very old article seems to indicate it will work: http://lowendmac.com/misc/06/0914.html
