Motion 5 doesn't show dynamic guides on fcpx title templates

I am trying to edit a FCPX title template in Motion 5. Specifically, it is Horizontal Blur. Once I open the template in motion, there are no dynamic guides. In the view menu, I have both Show Overlays and Show Dynamic Guides checked. Yet, no dynamic guides are showing.
If I open a blank project, the dynamic guides work.
Anybody run into this and have any thoughts on how to turn them on?
Thanks
Chris

Thank you. That was the trick. I already had 2 snap buttons enabled. Surprised that there was yet another.
Any reason why dynamic guides work on a new project but not on template? Is there a prefences override on FCPX templates?
Thanks!

Motion 5 doesn't show the "snap"

I put "snap" in "on" and "off" but Motion doesn't show me the lines, I erased Motion and re-installed it = nothing, the same. I re-installed Lion = nothing, the same, can somebody help me? thanks a lot.

top right of the canvas is a View dropdown -> select Show Dynamic Guides, or type Command-shift-; to toggle.

Dynamic guides are gone in Motion 3

Since updating to motion 3, can no longer see the dynamic guides.
Any one else have this problem ?
I have a g5 with 4 gig memories, an 850XT graphic card.
mostly motion 3 working well, a bit slower.
guindi

Well, it took me a while, had to trash the pref file then restart and dynamic guides now works fine.
i think that's a bug because I had every think set correctly before trashing the pref with no results.
thanks for the replies.

Missing Dynamic Guides

Dynamic Guides are not appearing in Motion Three. I've tried turning off and on the Overlays. I've tried deleting prefs.
Any Ideas other than reinstall?

I'm having the same issue. I have the new Motion 3 book and am just working through the intro and there are a number of things that don't appear to work right or like the book says. I'm suppose to be able to drag the boomerang.mov file over to the canvas and the dynamic guides are suppose to show and just dropping the .mov to the canvas adds the file to the project. Well, I've turned dynamic guides on and off and they never appear. I can drag a .mov to the project pane and it will add but if I drag it to the canvas you see a box but when you release the mouse and then click in the canvas the clip disappears and is no where to be found.

Apple TV doesn't show up in my iTunes devices list

Hey, I tried to post this question an hour ago but apparently my crappy 2.16 GHz intel 2 core duo iMac with 3 GB, 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM can't handle anything else while it is pointing out in iMovie '09 that none of my HD video is stable enough to take advantage of the stabilization feature.
Anyway, here's my second attempt at seeking assistance for the most pressing of the many complications I am faced with as a Mac user.
I can no longer see my Apple TV in the list of devices in iTunes on my iMac. This happened after I downloaded the most recent software update for my Apple TV, and after my step-father-in-law hooked me up with a home entertainment system. I have noted below with "CHECK!" the tasks I have performed in my attempts to maintain a love affair with Apple:
Verify that you have the latest version of iTunes installed. CHECK!
Verify that you have the latest version of Apple TV software installed. CHECK!
Verify Apple TV is powered and properly connected to your television and you can navigate the Apple TV interface. CHECK!
Verify Apple TV is properly connected to your network and the network is properly configured. When configuring Apple TV, if you do not see your wireless network, exit the selection screen by pressing the Menu button then go back in and the software will rescan. DUMB THIS ONE DOWN, APPLE. HOW DO I VERIFY APPLE TV IS PROPERLY CONNECTED TO MY NETWORK? WHY NOT SAY, "CHECK THAT APPLE TV SHOWS UP IN THE iTUNES DEVICES LIST" AS A TROUBLESHOOTING OPTION WHEN SOMEONE SAYS THAT THEIR PROBLEM IS THAT THEIR APPLE TV DOESN'T SHOW UP IN THEIR iTUNES DEVICES LIST". THAT'D BE HELPFUL.
Verify network connectivity on Apple TV by playing a movie trailer in Movies > Trailers. CHECK (BUT *** IS THAT "BIG MAN JAPAN" MOVIE TRAILER ABOUT?)
Verify that the computer you are using can access the iTunes Store. CHECK!
If you're using Apple TV in a school or office environment, make sure Apple TV is on the same network segment as your computer (check with your network administrator) or else iTunes won't see Apple TV. NOT APPLICABLE
For more information on how to properly set up your Apple TV, see the Apple TV Users Guide. UH, I BOUGHT THIS THING 1.5 YEARS AGO. DO I NEED TO REALLY GO BACK TO THAT?
Restart iTunes (Quit or Exit and then reopen iTunes). CHECK!
Reconnect Apple TV to iTunes OH THANKS. THIS IS GOOD ADVICE. *** DO YOU MEAN BY RECONNECT APPLE TV TO iTunes?
If that doesn't address the issue, then:
Reset HOW?
Restart your computer. CHECK!
Rejoin network (wireless) and/or Restart your network router ***? HOW? WHERE TO I CLICK?
Reinstall iTunes OH SNAP! I'LL DO THAT IF NOBODY HAS ANY BETTER ADVICE.
If you have Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard), click here for information on configuring Firewall. SHOOTSKIE, I WILL NEED TO GO BACK TO THE WEBSITE TO CLICK THAT LINK.
For Mac OS X 10.4 and earlier, make sure UDP port 5353 (Bonjour) is open on your firewall. If you use Windows Firewall, follow the steps here. SHOOTSKIE, AGAIN, NEED TO GO TO WEBSITE TO CLICK LINK, BUT I AM HOOKED UP THROUGH A WIRED CONNECTION DO I STILL NEED THIS STUPID PORT STUFF?
Otherwise, if you use other firewall software or hardware, check the software documentation on how to open UDP port 5353. IT IS SO COMPLETELY, RIDICULOUSLY LAME THAT "OPEN UP UDP PORT 5353" EVEN NEEDS TO BE PART OF THE INSTRUCTIONS FOR GETTING MUSIC FROM YOUR COMPUTER ONTO YOUR TV."
If you use Windows, try disabling services and startup items that may be conflicting. UHH, WHY WOULD I EVER HAVE WINDOWS? I SPEND 10-12 HOURS A DAY ON WINDOWS AT WORK, CRASHING MAYBE ONCE EVERY FEW WEEKS. I SPEND 30-60 MINS A DAY ON MY iMAC, CRASHING 1-2 TIMES A DAY. SERIOUSLY THOUGH, WINDOWS ***** TOO. TECHNOLOGY *****. PERIOD.

Hi everyone. I am typing here on my brand new 24-inch iMac. So far it's great! However, the issue I had with the Apple TV is unrelated to the iMac itself, and I wanted to let everyone know what the solution was to my Apple TV issue.
Until early this Sunday morning when I discovered this solution, my iMac would not sync with the Apple TV. This problem began after the most recent Apple TV software update. I neglected to mention in my previous posts that my Apple TV was connected to the Internet via an Ethernet connection.
Prior to the most recent software update, I believe that my Apple TV communicated wirelessly with my iMac and via an Ethernet connection to the iTunes store. With the latest Apple TV update, the sync between the iMac and the Apple TV does not work if the Apple TV is connected to the Ethernet. My solution was as follows:
1. Disconnect the Ethernet cable from the Apple TV. Do not reconnect.
2. Restore Apple TV to the factory settings. I'm not in front of my Apple TV at the moment but navigating through the Apple TV menu to reset the settings was fairly straightforward for me.
3. After resetting the factory settings and following the instructions, I was able to see the Apple TV in my computer's iTunes, but I was stuck with the super old software version from summer '07 when I bought this thing (i.e. before you could rent movies or watch anything in HD on the Apple TV).
4. Look for the software update on the Apple TV (again, fairly intuitive by navigating the menu on your TV) and download/install the latest update.
5. If your problem was due to having your Apple TV connected to the Ethernet, I think this should do the trick! It should now show up on your computer's iMac and it should automatically start syncing your iTunes content although I did have to direct it to sync my photos.
p.s. Does anyone know how I can let Apple know that this issue exists with the latest Apple TV update? The guys at the Genius Bar at the mall I went to in Pleasanton, CA couldn't find any notes in their knowledge database about issues with the latest Apple TV software update and I think it's important that Apple knows about this.
p.s.s. I think Apple should make all of us, their consumers, more aware of how to let Apple know about these issues because this issue was so frustrating and throughout the whole troubleshooting process I felt very helpless and would have felt so much more positive about Apple if I just had a forum in which I could let Apple know I was having this issue (above and beyond this user forum through which I ended up losing much of my iTunes album artwork after following one person’s advice).
So if that forum exists, please let me know and let's brainstorm as to how to get more people like me to be aware of that forum so other people don't experience the same frustrations I have experienced.
p.s.s.s. I haven't tried reconnecting my Apple TV to the Ethernet in my home. While it will probably be slower to rent and download movies wirelessly, I don't care that much as I'm thinking I will start renting movies through Netflix instead and just use the Apple TV to watch my homemade videos on my TV.
But I am curious, why does Apple charge so frickin' much to rent a movie on the Apple TV? $4.99 for an HD movie? Everyone who has NetFlix tells me it is sooooo much cheaper and very easy to use. And to be honest, this makes me mad. Not that there is a cheaper option for renting movies/TV shows. That makes me happy. What makes me mad is that Apple charges so much to rent a movie when it doesn’t benefit them and it doesn’t benefit me. I think Apple does a lot of good things, but I think being able to rent (or even better, to subscribe to) media that you can watch (almost) instantaneously in your home is the wave of the future and still relatively new. If Apple wants to make money off of this service in the long term, they need to start by offering movies for super cheap, even taking a loss off the price they pay the production companies if they have to, because right now it's still all about adoption (i.e. getting as many people as Apple possibly can to think about renting a movie or *please please* a TV show through Apple ).
So I guess I feel like it's a lose-lose for Apple and me. Through Apple, to rent a movie (or *please please* a TV show) I will pay much more than I would with Netflix. But if Apple can walk away with an untarnished reputation after creating a special headphone input into their original iPhone device to make extra money out of nothing, then maybe they can do no wrong and we just need to keep blindly giving them our moolah? Can somebody please let me know how I could get a better job or at least a raise so that I can give Apple all of the money they are trying to squeeze out of me?
p.s.s.s.s. I am soooo sorry Apple, but the other day when I was at your store looking for the Firewire adaptor I needed to transfer files from my Firewire 400 on my old iMac to my new iMac via the Firewire 800 adaptor, I just couldn’t stomach the huge markup. I imagine you guys make a ton of money by ridiculously marking up your accessories over what one could pay elsewhere.
I know the rest of your consumers are happy to pay $50 for buying the cable in your store and I would like to apologize right now for using your in-store computers to search for the alternative pricing which I found for $19.99. I don’t believe any of your other customers saw me doing this, but if they did, please accept my sincere apologies. In the current economic environment, reputation is everything and it would be unfortunate for all of us if the Apple masses felt they were being taken advantage of.
Wow, I think I’ve got some issues with Apple that I need to work out. Anyone know a good therapist?

My apple tv is registering on my tv - i can see it on my system info screen but the apple tv doesn't show up, as well my imac doesn't seem to let me share - so i don't know whats wrong, why my apple tv isn't working

anybody able to help me with my setup for apple tv. i've followed the directions in the guide and my tv doesn't seem to register in part. it's weird because my tv system info identifies the apple tv but the screen never went black and it doesn't show anything, too, my imac doesn't seem to register the apple tv unit either

I would try connecting it to another tv to see if it works there if it does
then likely your tv can't handle the default resolution and you should lower it on the other tv
if not then you should connect it by usb to the computer and use itunes to restore it's firmware

Report works fine in VS2010 but simply doesn't show when published

Problem:
Crystal Report works fine in VS 2010 but doesn't show when published to web-server, there is no error, it simply doesn't show.
Background:
Installed VS2010 on a freshly installed and fully updated (.net 4.0 is included in the updates) windows server 2003 box with production release Crystal Report 2010. Nothing else is on the server. IIS 6 is running. My web-server and VS2010 is on the same box.
I went ahead and created a new asp.net 4.0 web project called webapplication1. Thereafter, i put a few controls (text-boxes, list-boxes and so on) on the default.aspx page. Then i created a report.aspx page. This page will have the crystal report viewer on it. I went ahead and set the report up without much hassle (got how-to's from the internet). I successfully tested my web app with the built-in testing server, the beautiful crystal report presented exactly what i asked it to. There was one recurring "Sys.Application is null or not an object" hiccup that occured every time during testing when i navigated from the default.aspx page to the report.aspx page (the page the report is on). Clicking ignore or continue on the dialogue box that comes up because of the hiccup will allow testing to continue. Here's a screen-shot of this recurring hiccup.
http://i440.photobucket.com/albums/qq122/ricom_19/Testing-Error.jpg
As i've shown, testing went great, except for the hiccup. I now moved to setup a publish profile. Since my web-server and VS2010 is on the same box this seemed relatively straight forward. All the files went over except the report, i.e. crystalreport1.rpt file. I solved this by setting the build action to 'Content' in the CrystalReport1.rpt properties. I did a republish. Now i have all my files, see screenshot: [http://i440.photobucket.com/albums/qq122/ricom_19/Application-Home-Directory.jpg], on the web-server.
I proceeded to try to browse to my app from another computer on my network. This was successful until i tried to navigate to the report.aspx page that the crystal report is on. The the report.aspx page loaded but the crystal report was simply not on it. No errors, not even the hiccup from testing occured. Its as if the crystal report viewer was never on the page to begin with. Only when i right clicked on the page and 'view source' did i see some remnants of the crystal report viewer.
Here is the Report.aspx page when tested in VS2010:
[http://i440.photobucket.com/albums/qq122/ricom_19/successful-Test.jpg|http://i440.photobucket.com/albums/qq122/ricom_19/successful-Test.jpg]
Here is the Report.aspx page when published to the web-server and browsed to from another computer on the network:
[http://i440.photobucket.com/albums/qq122/ricom_19/Reportviewer-Disappear.jpg|http://i440.photobucket.com/albums/qq122/ricom_19/Reportviewer-Disappear.jpg]
Details of adding report to my web app:
1) Populate my dataset then write the XML schema, reportschema.xml
2) Added the crystal Report to the project then used the wizard to navigate to the reportschema.xml. Of course i had to create new connection in Database expert. see screen-shot:
[http://i440.photobucket.com/albums/qq122/ricom_19/CR-Database-Expert.jpg|http://i440.photobucket.com/albums/qq122/ricom_19/CR-Database-Expert.jpg]
3) I formatted the report the way i wanted it
4) Added the Crystal report viewer on the Report.aspx page
5) In the code-behind of the Report.aspx page i bound the viewer to a report document that is loaded with CrystalReport1.rpt file
see screenshot: [http://i440.photobucket.com/albums/qq122/ricom_19/Report-Page-Code-behind.jpg]
That's it. As mentioned, it tested fine in VS2010 but the viewer doesn't show when i publish to the webserver. I wrote a crystal report in .net about 8 years ago. Things have changed soooo much since then.
I am wondering if its a license issue? Was also wondering if it had anything to do the testing hiccup, even though research is suggestion the two are unrelated.
I've described my actions as best as i could (without getting into ridiculous detail) and have included screen-shots of relevant stages of the process. Have a look and tell me your thoughts. Thanks.

The "Sys.Application is null or not an object" issue is known, submitted for a resolution and documented in KB #1528503. Unfortunately the KB search has been down the last couple of days...
However, the issue is limited to compile time and does not affect a completed application.
Re. the viewer missing. Sounds like the viewer directory did not get created or configure correctly. Before I get to that. You mention:
"I proceeded to try to browse to my app from another computer on my network."
This bring up the question: If you run the app right on the app server. e.g.; not a client computer, does the viewer and report come up? Is this issue isolated to client computers on the network?
I suspect that the issue exists irrespective of which computer you try to see the report from - but that is an assumption. If the assumption is correct, see [this|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/50aa68c0-82dd-2b10-42bf-e5502b45cd3a] article on configuring the viewer. The article does not have CR4VS2010 documented, but you should be able to guide your self using the article. I think the pattern will be obvious.

Is there a way to "force-mount" an external drive that doesn't show up on it's own when plugged in with firewire?

Hi, is there a way to "force-mount" an external drive that doesn't show up on the desktop? I have a new Hitachi SATA III 2 TB Ultrastar that won't show up like all the other drives when plugged in. So I can't partition, repair, format etc with Disk Utility, Disk Drill, Tech Tools etc. How do I make it visible?
I use the FW 400 to 800 adapter and a FW hub.
Thanks,

External Hard Drive doesn't show up

hi.
i'm having an issue with my external hard drive. this morning i went to plug it in since that's where i store all of my music, and for some odd reason it didn't work. i have a feeling it's because the night before i unplugged it without ejecting it. my mistake, i know, but now the drive is all messed up. earlier i was able to view the volumes on it in disk utility, and before deciding to erased anything i plugged it into my sister's dell where i transfered everything on the drive. now, when i plug it in my macbook it only shows up in disk utility without the volumes, it doesn't show up on the dell anymore, and when i go to erase everything it tells me "operation timed out".
i'm at a loss of what to do. i tried restarting the macbook, unplugged the cables... nothing seems to work. i would really like to get the thing back to factory settings if that's possible. so if anyone can offer help, it would be most appreciated. the external drive is a 500GB Maxtor OneTouch

Try this:
Extended Hard Drive Preparation
1. Open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder. If you need to reformat your startup volume, then you must boot from your OS X Installer Disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Installer menu (Utilities menu for Tiger or Leopard.)
2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area. If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing. SMART info will not be reported on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
3. Set the number of partitions from the drop down menu (use 1 partition unless you wish to make more.) Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID (only required for Intel Macs) then click on the OK button. Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
4. Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
5. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
6. Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to several hours depending upon the drive size.
If you plan to use this drive on both your Mac and a PC, then format the drive MS-DOS rather than Mac OS Extended.

Dreamweaver design view doesn't show the bottom part of a long div

Hi!
I'm doing a very graphics oriented site, which basically requires me to use a large jpg as a background image and placing text areas against this background using absolute positioning.
My problem is that Dreamweaver doesn't show me the bottom part of my content div's background, but renders it as black instead. This obviously makes placing the text areas correctly difficult, since I can't see them against the background.
If I turn on Live view, then Dreamweaver shows the bottom part correctly. But in live view I can't use rulers and guides (or can I?).
Is there any setting that I can change so that Dreamweaver is showing me the whole div bg in all situations? One possible cause of this problem might be also that I'm using overflow:scroll on my content. Could that be why Dreamweaver hides the bottom part and can I change that behaviour?
Any ideas are welcome!

If we can see the page in question we could probably do this a lot easier. But all you need to do in your CSS for the background is:
background: url(pathto/image.jpg) fixed no-repeat;
If you are trying to absolutely position something in the middle you will be unable to do this without the assistance of javascript to determine the useable pixels on the end-users computer. Horiztonally is not the issue, but rather vertically because you can achieve horizontal centering by defining a width and setting the margin: 0 auto; in your CSS.
As far as working with overflows, if there is too much content in them that you believe the overflow will be necessary (assuming min/max-widths are set) you could consider including the content from another document or store it in a database and query the information out. Then it would make it easier for the client to update the content on their own in the future.

I also got Motion and can't figure out how to use it with Final Cut Pro X. Any help woud be great. Thanks

I have no idea what may have caused your MacBook to stop working, but from your description it kind of sounds like it may have started before you ran Software Update and installed the new Apps. Just the general slow feeling and bugginess is what tips me off. You said that you weren't sure if you had closed all open windows, that doesn't matter if the computer restarts itself. It automatically closes all other open applications when restarting.
As to your data being retrievable, if when you take it in they do a fresh install of the OS, then no, it will not be unless you want to pay several thousand dollars to a software retrieval company.
I am glad to hear that you have taken into the Apple Store to get it fixed, and that you have all of your purchased music backed up to your iPod. You should be able to just transfer it all back to iTunes once you get your computer back should it be necessary.
As a side note, the proper place for this topic would probably in the MacBook forums, not iTunes since there is no evidence that iTunes started the issue.

French characters in run time parameter values doesn't show up in emails

We have a custom workflow with configurations to send email when a request is assigned to a person and also to send email on request rejections.
We are encountering following issues with respect to French characters that are available in the message body and message subject.
Issue 1:Notifications are configured in Human Task (ApprovalTask.task) when a task is assigned. Since the message body contains French characters we have used ISO-8859-1 encodings to render the message properly to the user. The message body also has some run time content from the task payload.
For e.g. À titre de responsable fonctionnel, une demande d''approbation pour un accès informatique vous est assignée.
Accès informatique demandé : <%/task:task/task:payload/ns1:ObjectDetails/ns1:name%>
In this case all static text values are rendered properly to the end user in his email. However the French characters in run time parameter values doesn't show up properly and has some weird characters.
Issue 2: Unable to change the default subject shown in the approval task emails i.e. Notifications are configured in Human Task (ApprovalTask.task) when a task is assigned. By default it shows Action Required: Approval. How can this default value be changed?
Issue 3: We have an Email Activity in Bpel process that follows a task rejection. The emailpayload is ISO-8859-1 encoded and works for the message body. However the email subject shows up with ISO-8859-1 encodings itself and doesn't convert to proper string in the end user's email. Is there any specific setting required for french characters in subject?

Hi Kulwinder,
Thanks for your reply.
In fact I do, I've follewed the "Using SAP HANA Variables with SAP BusinessObjects BI4.0" guide.
Please note, when I use a fix value to parameter is working fine, for example:
SELECT *
FROM "_SYS_BIC"."prueba-concepto/CV_TEST_VAR_II" ('PLACEHOLDER' = ('$$FECHA$$','20130530'))
But when I set prompt of the DataFoundation parameter I get and error, this is my sentence:
SELECT *
FROM "_SYS_BIC"."prueba-concepto/CV_TEST_VAR_II" ('PLACEHOLDER' = ('$$FECHA$$',@Prompt(FECHA)))
To me is very curious that I can't enter a value in the DataPreview in Hana Studio, because is not requested, even when the input parameter have been set as mandatory
Have you idea of what could be happening?

XML shows in Flash, but doesn't show on server?

Hello.
I have a Flash website with 5 sections (Featured Work, News, About Me, Services, Contact). All the sections works fine, both in Flash and on the server, if the content isn't loaded from XML. But in the News section i use XML for loading the news.
If i test my movie in flash, the whole site works fine, and the XML News works perfect. But if i test the movie in a virtual server (like MAMP) or if i test it on my own server, the news section doesn't show.
I can't seem to find the problem?

I'm sorry to sound so stupid, but this is new to me.
I tried pasting the trace(MT2.newsNum,Number(MT2.newsNum)) in both out and in the for loop, and i still get the same trace "5 5"
I'm not really sure what to do, so i'll just try explaining my whole site to you:
I have my "main.fla" with three layers with actionsscript:
- Navigation Actions
     - Has a for loop that creates 6 textfields with clickevents and SWFAddress that changes between 6 frames in a MovieClip (SubNavBar).
- Positioning Actions
     - Positions the textfield buttons, the navigation bar, and the sub navigation bar in the SubNavBar movieclip, and places my dynamic background.
- XML
     - I can't explain the XML layer, so i have attached it.
The SubNavBar MovieClip has 6 frames. The 1 is empty, so the site is clear at first. In frame 2, 4 and 6 there is a for loop like in the navigation layer, so these layers have a sub navigation bar, that once again changes between some frames in a movieclip.
In frame 3 their is the news code i pasted earlier, and in frame 5 there isn't anything yes, but it should just be graphics.
XML LAYER:
// XML LISTS //
// ========= //
var newsTitle:XMLList;
var newsInfo:XMLList;
var newsContent:XMLList;
var newsTitleArray:Array;
var newsInfoArray:Array;
var newsContentArray:Array;
// NUMBER OF ITEMS
var newsNum:Number;
// LOAD XML //
// ======== //
var xml:XMLLoader = new XMLLoader(this,"data.xml");
// function called when XML is loaded
function getXML(xmlData:XML):void {
// STORING RELEVANT DATA INTO LISTS FOR LATER ACCESS //

In the folder i have uploaded to my server, i have following:
- AC_RunActiveContent.js - Background.png (main background) - com (folder) (GreenSock) - data.xml - index.html - js (folder) (SWFAddress) - mailer.php (Contact Form) - main.fla - main.swf - media (folder) (Pictures For Background) - Mosaic.swf (Mosaic Overlay For Background) - P-Logo.png - preview.swf (Background) - SWFAddress.as - SWFAddressEvent.as - textLayout_1.0.0.595.swz - xml (folder) (xml config for background) (SEPERATE FLA FILE (NOT A PROBLEM) - XMLLoader.as
The XMLLoader.as is the file that loads my data.xml. The data.xml has the text to my news section.
XMLLoader.as:
package {
import flash.events.IOErrorEvent;
import flash.net.URLLoader;
import flash.net.URLRequest;
import flash.events.Event;
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.display.MovieClip;
public class XMLLoader extends Sprite {
private var loader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
public var loadedXML:XML;
// accept parent path to xml
public function XMLLoader(mT:MovieClip, path:String):void {
// LOADING XML //
// =========== //
loader.load(new URLRequest(path));
loader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onComplete, false, 0, true);
loader.addEventListener(IOErrorEvent.IO_ERROR, onIOError, false, 0, true);
function onComplete(evt:Event):void {
loadedXML = new XML(evt.target.data);
loader.removeEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onComplete);
loader.removeEventListener(IOErrorEvent.IO_ERROR, onIOError);
// Run getXML function from where this clas was instantiated
mT.getXML(loadedXML);
function onIOError(evt:IOErrorEvent):void {
trace("Error: " + evt.text);
I hope this helps you? I hope you now can give me more specific help?

Podcast feed image doesn't show up

Hi,
I have two separate podcast image issues here:
1. I can't get the feed image of a new podcast to show up at all. The podcast has been showing up for a while now. How long does it take for the feed image to show up? Is there no maximum size for feed images now? There used to be, but I don't see a size limit anymore, only a suggestion that the image should be square, which this one is. Here is the .rss feed in question:
http://christiantelevisionbroadcasting.com/rss/crosstalk.rss
2. I have a podcast that's been listed here on iTunes since 2005, when iTunes first started listing podcasts. I noticed recently that this podcast no longer shows up in the featured podcasts, even though it's popular, and certainly one of the oldest continuing podcasts on iTunes. The podcast (Axis Coffee House) shows up near the top of the list when you search the podcasts for "praise" or "Texas Baptist" and then sort by popularity. If you click on "see all" to look at the list of image icons, the Axis podcast doesn't show up at all anymore. I suspect there may be something wrong with the feed image which prevents it from showing up in the graphical listing? Here is the .rss feed in question:

Thanks for your help... (smile)

sadly, we podcast creators have no way of controlling what is a featured podcast. This is something that the iTunes staff picks and chooses...here's a snippet from the spec:
"Getting Featured on the iTunes Home Page
At iTunes, we’re constantly on the lookout for podcasts that are breaking new ground with this medium, have new or unusual content, or just capture our interest. When we find them, we like to feature them on the Podcasts home page. While there are no sure-fire ways to get your podcast featured (and no, we do not accept payments for promotion), there are some minimum requirements."
The popularity meter in iTunes for podcasts is pretty useless and is in not really reflective of how popular your feed really is. It's merely a gauge as to how frequently people have subscribed to the feed with itunes. It doesn't take into account people that have subscribed via direct link, manually subscribed, or subscribed using other feed readers/podcatchers.
Feed validator is still coughing up some errors. You missing GUID's for your items as well. The GUID can be anything as long as it's unique throughout the xml. Often times just using the same url as the enclosure does the trick.
The iTunes podcast directory is also very clunky and has quite a lot of holes...some feeds are listed in categories they don't belong in, some are listed when searching but not browsing, all sorts of strange behavior. So there may not be anything wrong with your feed that is causing it not to show up....just a clunky database.

App store doesn't show Mac OS X Lion 10.7.3 as purchased and will resell it to me has anyone else noticed this?

The Apple app store doesn't show Mac OS X Lion 10.7.3 as purchased and will resell it to me. I bought this computer (early 2011 macbook pro 17 in) new in oct 2011 it came with Lion installed has anyone else noticed this?

Barney,I did as you suggested and emailed app store support qutioning why the app store didn't recognize my OS LION software as purchased even though all of the iLife apps that came bundled with it are recognized as PURCHASED and here was the email response from robert@ the app store....< I understand that you are trying to re-install the OS X Lion as you had a Hard Drive crash but it is not showing as purchased from your Mac App Store purchase pane.
As the Mac OS X Lion was pre-installed to your computer , it will not be recognized as purchased in the Mac App Store, and because of that it is not available fro re-download for free. Also, computers that come preinstalled with Lion do not ship with the disk.
Dana, not worry as OS X Lion has a self recovery feature.
