Missing something
I currently used CNET Techtacker to keep my mac apps up to date. I was hoping that the APP Store would do a similar function. Maybe, allowing the user to select in a preference window for the APPS Store a list of Apps to allow updates.
Though the APP Stores offers a wide range of apps for a MAC. There is no Photoshop, or Quark apps. I am certain that APPLE has taken the greatest safeguards against illegal copying of software.
Secondary, I would limit away to just limit which APP appear in Window of the APP Store on my mac
Noppie
All the apps sold thru the Mac App Store allow installation on multiple personal computers used by the same Apple ID.
Photoshop and Quark are not licensed that way. So I don't expect to see them in the Mac App Store anytime soon.
You'll notice that even Filemaker - another expensive, sold per seat app - is not in the store, even though Apple owns the Filemaker company.

I have just tried to connect my Mac book pro to an LG Plasma TV via an iWires Mini DisplayPort to HDMI cable. All I get on my TV is the Mac wallpaper and nothing else. I am missing something really silly, could anyone help please.
Hi there. I also bought an iWires mini Display port to HDMI cable and have an LG LED/LCD TV. I plugged it in to my MB Pro and followed the very small writing that came in the package and got both audio and video going. You need to change the audio settings from within System Preferences on your Mac to select your TV as the audio output.
My concern is the data latency - do you experience a delay between moving your mouse on the MBPro and the TV displaying the movement? It is only a fraction of a second, but certainly enough to be annoying, especially in a cable as expensive as the iWire. -
I purchased at the airport last week before a long haul flight the MagSafe Airline Adappter so I couod keep working on the MacBook Air without fear of the battery running out before I had completed the necessary work. The shop assistant assured me the kit worked on all planes but......the socket on the flight, both outbound and inbound, was the normal female 2 pin/3 pin socket that I used to use for my old thinkPad. What am I doing wrong? Am I missing something obvious here
Thanks for any help you can offer.
GeoffHi CaptFred,
Thanks for taking the time to respond. I understand your point and have indeed separated them. Since sending the message I have visited the Apple Store to check the picture of the accessory in case I was missing something and I wonder if I am missing the 20mm adapter but, over and above that, I just dont see the right size/shape empower port socket in the plane seat, only the traditional 3 pin/2 pin sockets. I wonder if the salesman was selling me a pig in the poke because the Apple Store also says that it fits some commercial airlines whereas the salesman told me it worked in all flights. I suspect I will need to go to the airline companies direct to see which planes have this particualr Empower port. In the meantime I am tempted to ask for my money back. Geoff -
For the love of Jeebus, please tell me I am missing something with PP's janky audio workflow
OK, I've read the help docs, gone through the tutorials, watched the videos. Still I am not finding an efficient workflow for dealing with audio in PP. Let's face it, audio in 5.5 was completely baffling to us newbies jumping ship from FCP 7, and I thought the CS 6 update was going to simplify things. No dice. As I am a somewhat recent transplant, I am willing to admit that…. wait, nay, I'm HOPING that I am probably missing something here and that it's just stupid operator error. Fingers crossed.
Here's my situation. I am editing a documentary that has hundreds of hours of footage and thousands upon thousands of clips. We are working with three different kinds of audio: stereo, mono 1 & 2 (interviews with a lav mic on channel 1 and boom on channel 2) and mono (interview on channel 1 with lav microphone only). Here's my problems:
If I set the audio so that they're all stereo clips
Then I'm running into problems with the mono 1 & 2 tracks. Say the boom audio is better on the right channel, and I want to silence the left. I turn the left channel off. Then I want the boom audio to be on both channel's equally… well, I can't figure out a way to do that. In FCP, I would just put the pan to center, and the audio would play the right channel's audio on both channels equally. With PP, panning does nothing but adjust how much of the boom is heard, as opposed to how much the lav (now silent) is heard. I can't find a way to pan the boom to the center, so that it is heard equally on both channels.
If I set the audio so that they're all mono 1 & 2 clips
Doing this solves the boom/lav problem as listed above, as the mono tracks seem to center pan and play on both channels equally, so simply deleting the lav works well. However, now if I have a stereo song that I want to keyframe some fades in (say a music bed playing in the background that I want to fade lower when a person starts talking)… now I have to pen tool in keyframes for the left track AND the right track separately, try to get the fades to match on each track, then separately fade the audio back in for each track. So essentially I've DOUBLED my work for each of the tracks I've marked this way.
As a note, I love having found this out the hard way, after editing a 20 minutes interview into bits and pieces scattered across my timeline, and then finding out I should have set the audio to Mono 1 & 2. Easy enough, I thought, as I went back to the Project window, found the original clip, then went to modify the audio so it would work in my project. I got the extremely helpful message that "Any changes you have made to the number of clips or the type of those clips will not be reflected in the existing timelines. Do you want to continue?" YEAH! That's super. You might as well have put "Making this change now will do nothing to help you. You'll have to go back and edit everything again. Do you want to continue?" Great, Adobe, thanks. Bang up job there.
I was really happy about not having to transcode in PP like I used to have to do in FCP 7. That was until I realized how the audio worked, and for the latest scene of this documentary had to go through every clip/camera download to figure out how the audio had to be set-up before I could start editing. Transcoding a big job used to take me a day. Configuring the audio in PP for this one scene took two.
I would be the happiest person on the planet to find out that I've been wasting my time and that there is a simple solution for all of this. Hope someone can point me in the right direction and thanks for any help!I'm not suggesting any of this as a model, and your needs are different than mine.
1) Go to Preferences -> Audio. Under "Default Audio Tracks", Set "Mono Media: Mono". Set "Stereo Media: Mono" (Choices from the pull-down for both are Use File, Mono, Stereo, 5.1, Adaptive)
You can change these, but I don't. I am using both mono and stereo tracks. I set up a custom sequence with the particular combination of stereo and mono tracks I want.
2) Set audio for clips by selecting all clips and going to Modify Clip -> Audio Channels Tab. Under "Number of Audio Tracks" there should be a "1". Under Channel Format it should read "Stereo".
I am not sending the audio to anyone else to edit further. I am doing a final stereo mix. If camera one is set up to record 2 mikes as a stereo track, then I leave that unchanged and put it onto a stereo track. If camera two is set up to record one mike onto channel 1 as ambient sound and channel 2 is a mono feed from a sound board, then I modify those clips as Preset Mono, 2 audio tracks, Channel format Mono, and that puts the left source channel (or whichever I choose) onto Audio track 1, channel 1 (of one), and right source channel onto audio track 2, channel 1.
4) Delete all the existing audio tracks in the sequence and replace them all with mono tracks, so all tracks in the sequence are mono.
I modify the tracks while creating the sequence, and ultimately use a custom sequence.
Under my Effects Controls panel there is only Channel Volume, and nowhere to adjust the pan.
I'm using the mixer, not the effects control panel. -
IPod (music) app on the iPad is terrible, or am I missing something?
I think the iPod app on the iPhone is pretty great, but the iPod app on the iPad 2 is really, really awful. Am I missing something? My main issue with it is that you can't browse by genre. There is a Genre tab at the bottom, but when I tap then and then tap a genre, instead of getting a list of artists in that genre, what I get is a little popup window that lists every song by every artist from every albums within that genre. It's completely worthless. On the iPhone I can tap a genre and then see the artists in that genre. Tap an artist and I see the albums by that artists, then I can tap on a specific album and then play it. That's what I want to do. Is there some way to do this with the iPad version that I'm missing?
Even the Artists tap is far from ideal. If you tap that you do see all of the albums by that artist, but they are all listed in one popup window and you can't tap an album and just see the tracks on that album and just play that album. You can start playing on a certain album, but when that's done it will go onto the next album in the list, and that's not what I want.
Is there any way to get the iPhone's iPod app behavior that I like?I agree. It is certainly one area that can be significantly improved on the iPad.
Send feedback to Apple on it.

I cant open my itunes. it said i needed to download the 10.5.2 version to be able to upload the songs to my new ipod (touch) and when i went to do that my itunes wont open at all. me and my mom tried everything. i even went on my brothers account to get at least some songs and his did the same thing even though i didnt download it to the newest version. after i downloaded the lastest version and tried to open my itunes it said it was missing something so i went and downloaded it again. i know that was probably bad to do but i didnt know what else to do. even though i went and did that it keeps saying that im missing something. i dont know what to do to get my itunes to work again and if ill have to redownload all my songs and videos again.
Pleas help.
Thanks much,
SammiiPlug your iPod into your computer, it will begin to sync. Now check to see if the playlists have been added.
If not, go to the songs tab under your iPod when it is connected to iTunes, Unless you have checked "Sync all songs (or something to those words)" you should have an option on what you can put on your iPod. Make sure to check the playlists that you want on your iPod. -
Did I miss something in the fine print? I installed Lion and and come to find out, I can no longer open any Word documents or Excel spreadsheets as they are no longer supported (apparently because they are PowerPC apps). Seriously?!?!?!?!! What are my alternatives?
Hi Mary and Matthew
You might find it helpful to "try before you buy" - there is a 30 day free trial offer for Office for Mac 2011, accessible from M's .com website.
You may be able to use this period to open and resave your old documents in a format that enables you to switch instead to using Apple's iWorks apps moving forward.
I initially intended to do something similar, but ended up buying Office as it provided an easier way (for me, at least) to continue working with years worth of old emails, letters, spreadsheets and other documents (from my PC days) without risking damage to their integrity, formatting, etc. -
I am using nigpib version 6 with RedHat Linux 6.2. I am having problems talking to my instruments. Two devices a Keithley Multimeter 2001 and an IO TECH dac488hr refuse to communicate. Their remote lights go on but I get an EBUS error when doing ibwrt to either. Two other devices an SRS850 lockin amplifier, and an ESI model 73 precision transformer respond to commands well enough but I get an EAB0 error returned. I recognize the problems have to do with timeout. I have changed ibtmo to various settings but continue to get errors. I have tried to be careful setting the EOS and EOI attributes for each device but clearly I am missing something. Any suggestions?
In the past I used the LLP gpib driver and don't recall gett
ing these kinds of problems. I was going to port over my old code to talk with the instruments but I see that there is some rather sigificant differences in the way you do business. For one under LLP Clausi set up a /dev/gpib0/master device through which commands were passed. In addition he had a /etc/gpib.conf file and loaded his module via insmod in rc.d. You, on the other hand, set up /dev/gpib, /dev/gpib0, /dev/gpib1/, /dev/gpib2, /dev/gpib3, /dev/gpibdebug and /dev/dev0 /dev/dev1 etc (where dev# is a device configured with ibconf). What are the relationships between your strategies? What must I do to port my old software to my newer linux OS and use your drivers rather than those from LLP?
I could really use some insights. Any comments (sans flaming ;-) would be welcome.I tried this but with no success. I called the help line and spoke with Ben P. and Armando V. they walked me through the ibic and ibconf tools, again, with no success.
I spoke with the vendors of the instruments which are giving the EBUS error. They walked me through the setups (especially wrt to EOS and EOI). They were confused as to why the instruments failed to respond.
With my last call to NI (SR#345883) the engineers suggested that I respond to this email and ask for further support. They requested/suggested I supply the following 3 pieces of information:
1) revision of boards and part nos.
2 ATGPIB-TNT boards vintage 1993
assy 181830-01 REV. D
1 ATGPIB-TNT PNP vintage 1995
assy 182885E-01
The implication was that NI might be able to provide an upgrade to the firmware if that was at fault.
2) Capture of errors in ibic
basically following your webpage for ibic works upto communicating with devices. Sample output follows:
: ibfind gpib0
id = 0
gpib0: ibpad 0
[0100] ( cmpl )
previous value: 0
gpib0: ibfind keithley
id = 1002
keithley: ibwrt "*IDN?\xA"
[8100] ( err cmpl )
<>
error: EBUS
count: 0
keithley: ibrd 100
[8100] ( err cmpl )
error: EBUS
count: 0
<>
keithley: ibfind ratio
id = 1003
ratio: ibwrt "Ratio 0.1234567\xA"
[c100] ( err timo cmpl )
error: EAB0
count: 16
<
the ratio, as verified by the display >>
ratio: ibrd 100
[e100] (err timo end cmpl )
error: EAB0
count: 17
52 61 74 69 6f 20 30 2e Ratio 0.
31 32 33 34 35 36 37 30 12345670
0a .
using the SRS850 Lockin Amplifier has an added advantage. It will show the input and output queues on the screen. When I command this instrument I can watch as it receives its instructions. The commands are going through correctly (NOTE: this device also gives an EAB0 error).
I have tried different cables, different machines, different DMA settings, different interrupts, different instruments, different ibtmo values, different cards, single devices on short cables, but keep getting errors.
I have used the ibic webpage (setting ibsre 1, etc) and these work fine but the devices still complain.
3) Give the version of Linux I am using...
We are running Redhat 6.2, kernel version 2.2. We have older versions of the Linux OS which are running the LLP gpib driver for the SAME devices and it works fine. I would rather not go back to older versions if possible, besides since NI has done the Linux gpib driver, it appears that LLP has dropped support. In particular, I cannot get their drivers to compile in Redhat 6.2 and get no response from my emails. I would be willing to move to newer versions of Linux if that would solve the problem.
I have confirmed the following:
The ibtsta program says the driver is installed correctly (run without the gpib cable attached.)
Interrupts, dma, iports are unique and without contention.
The gpib card responds to commands (eg using ibic.)
Some devices respond in a fashion, others fail. But all seem to receive signals from the computer.
The instruments and cables attached to the system are sound.
The gpib card, cables, and devices respond correctly from a dual boot machine running WinNT and Linux (i.e. no movement of cables, devices, or cards). On the WinNT side the recently downloaded NI drivers work and I can communicate (with the Keithley 2001) flawlessly.
I am must now ask whether the driver is at fault. I understand the drivers are beta, but these appear to be the only workable drivers out there. ANY HELP WOULD BE APPRECIATED!

Paste in Place in Photoshop CS6 is not working, am I missing something?
Hey there,
I've been using the Creative Suite since CS4, but still count myself as a beginner.
I'm building a psd file with vectors from an ai file. I recall that in CS5 and CS5.5 I had no issue copying a vector from Illustrator and then using "paste in place" to land it in the same relative spot on the Photoshop canvas. Today, my world has crumbled! Try as I might, I cannot get my vector shapes to "paste in place".
I am using Windows 7, service pack 1, and CS6 64 bit edition. Both Illustrator and Photoshop were entirely up to date as of today, and I'm in the midst of doing a reinstall, just in case that helps anything. I have already tried dumping the preference file, to no avail.
Having taken a look through the forums, it seems that Illustrator's clipboard has been handling data differently somehow, and I'm pondering whether this might be the culprit of my issue. However, copying and pasting in place within Illustrator seems to work fine, problems only arise when I copy from Illustrator into Photoshop.
I feel that I am likely missing something easy to overlook, and I would greatly appreciate some help.
Message was edited by: sccampbell
I asked a friend about this issue, and he says that functionality was never there. Is that true? Perhaps it should be, it would be extremely useful. Even though I thought I recalled having done this in the past, I guess I must be mistaken.Illustrator has a different origin behavior. There is a global origin and a per artbord origin. you need to fix the problem in AI.

Why does CS6 no longer export images out at their boundary/artboard size? Am I missing something?
I recently upgraded to Illustrator CS6, and suddenly clients have been remarking that the file sizes are wrong or there's "a ton of white space around the logo." I checked it out, and sure enough, it appears that whenever I export a file, it does not crop it to the image boundary like it used to, even if I had manually adjusted the artboard to fit closely around it. After a bit of trial and error, I discovered that I have to click "Use Artboards" on the Export dialog each time. The super annoying part is that it doesn't STAY checked, AND it adds a number to the end of the file name. So I often forget to check it (not used to the extra step in workflow), and if I make a modification to the file, I can't just export over the previous version. It requires me to export it, go find it in finder, and manually delete the extra number off the file name. Ugh! The extra steps are adding way too much time when I'm saving out many files. I'm about ready to go back to my previous version just from this alone.
Help! Am I totally missing something? Is there an easier way to do this? It seems like the addition of this feature would only cause extra problems...I did a quick test of this, and my CS6 Ai does indeed export to the exact size of the artboard, even if there are elements outside this boundary. Imo, this is an improvement over earlier versions: if you had some art hanging over the artboard edge in CS5, the export size would be larger than the artboard, to include even hidden paths. But CS6 is an improvement in this regard. Yes, it would be nice if your choice of "use artboard" was remembered or a choice in the prefs, but this is a small inconvenience, imo. Regarding the addition of -01, etc. to each successive export, why not just send the latest export to your client? You can delete the earlier versions later.
Another plus: if you run in 64-bit, CS5 is slow on opening each file, which is thankfully not so with CS6.

FRUSTRATED:Simple Tasks - Am I missing something or does iTunes fall short?
So last night I became VERY frustrated because I attempted the SIMPLE TASK OF COPYING MP3 files to a flash card and ran into SEVERAL snags...
I wanted to copy just my MP3 files (not AAC) and ran into the following snags:
1) I COULD NOT FIND ANY WAY to burn songs or play list to ANYTHING other than CDs and I had way more data to transfer than would fit on a CD. Isn't there ANY WAY to copy songs to a flash drive?
2) I couldn't find a way to select Full Album from the album list. I just wanted to view "Album View" as to choose from artists and pick an ENTIRE album skip a few pick a few more ENTIRE ALBUMS, skip a few, etc. I could not find a way to select an ENTIRE album from the Album List without selecting EACH song INDIVIDUALLY. It IS the ALBUM LIST chy can't you select an entire ALBUM? Am I missing something?
3) Then when I tediously selected about 40 albums (song by tedious song) it wouldn't copy them over. Apparently it was too much data to handle. So I had to reselect albums in groups of 10 (song by tedious song). Is it true iTunes can't handle more than a few MB of data at a time?
4) After this tedious FLASH card backup I synced my iPod and low and behold I couldn't sort by GROUP which is how I classified all my music since A) every time I set a custom GENRE and tags, it would default back to the often WRONG GENREs that Apple had assigned after "GETTING TRACK INFO or ALBUM ARTWORK." Isn't there any way to sort by GROUPS on the iPod? Is there any way to assign CUSTOM GENRES and not have them go back to the default and often wrong default settings that iTunes assigned?
i think those were ALL SIMPLE TASKS that iTunes SHOULD have been able to accomplish quite easily. But apparently not! If I am missing something, please enlighten me.
Bonus questions...
Why does iTunes break up some albums into a few songs at a time and not others? I can't get them back together unless I select COMPILATION, which it might not necessarily qualify as?
Half of my CDs I copied over to iTunes sound great on the computer but tinny and play through the right speaker only. What settings should I use, because the default ones don't sound good.
Why does iTunes keep CONSTANTLY interrupting/stalling my computing when it is just copying CDs. I thought the whole point of selecting COPY CD and EJECT in the preferences was to eliminate this. [I'm running on a brand new MacBook Pro with MAXIMUM memory available]
The icing on the cake is that I couldn't finay ANY MANUALS for iTunes on the APPLE.COM site and only incredibly rudimentary video tutorials that cover little. I also have the official Apple book on iTunes whih doesn't cover ANY of these topics
Finally , are there any good alternatives to iTunes as a database and e-jukebox?
THANKS to ANYONE who took the time to read this FRUSTRATING VERBOSE NOTE.1) I COULD NOT FIND ANY WAY to burn songs or play list to ANYTHING other than CDs and I had way more data to transfer than would fit on a CD. Isn't there ANY WAY to copy songs to a flash drive?
Just find the tracks in iTunes, mount the flash drive, and drag the tracks from the iTunes window to the flash drive. Or find them in the iTunes Music folder and drag them to the flash drive.
2) I couldn't find a way to select Full Album from the album list. I just wanted to view "Album View" as to choose from artists and pick an ENTIRE album skip a few pick a few more ENTIRE ALBUMS, skip a few, etc. I could not find a way to select an ENTIRE album from the Album List without selecting EACH song INDIVIDUALLY. It IS the ALBUM LIST chy can't you select an entire ALBUM? Am I missing something?
Turn on the Browser view; View menu -> Show Browser. The you can just click on an artist and then click on the album.
Why does iTunes break up some albums into a few songs at a time and not others? I can't get them back together unless I select COMPILATION, which it might not necessarily qualify as?
Make sure that the album titles are exactly the same. Even an extra space will make it a separate album to iTunes.
The icing on the cake is that I couldn't finay ANY MANUALS for iTunes on the APPLE.COM site and only incredibly rudimentary video tutorials that cover little. I also have the official Apple book on iTunes whih doesn't cover ANY of these topics.

You might copy down the error then try posting again. Your likely missing a DLL or sorts. Once people see the error then maybe you can get lucky for the fix.
You might also read thru the posts to see if you WANT anything that 11 may offer.
