Motion crashing out of the box on my Quad...???
While following the DVD tutorial on FCP Studio, the potion covering Motion is unattainable because it keeps crashing.
At the step where I am to choose "Open Template", Motion crashes about a second afterward. I then noticed it was doing it on the next several templates I choose at random. I've restarted and closed everything else down to isolate it, but I still get the same result.
I have a brand new Quad G5 2.5 with OS 10.4.5. 2 GB DDR2 SDRAM and a GeForce 7800GT graphics card -- Why would I be having this problem???
Quad G5 2.5 Mac OS X (10.4.5) 2 GB DDR2 SDRAM and a GeForce 7800GT graphics card
Sounds like an install or configuration problem.
Have you downloaded and installed all the updates?
Pro Applications Update 2005-1
Pro Applications Update 2005-2
Motion 2.0.1 Update
http://www.apple.com/finalcutstudio/download/
Pro Application Support 3.1 (Mac OS X 10.4)
http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/proapplicationsupport31macosx104.html
Are there any error messages in the Console?
Launch Console, /Applications/Utilities/Console.app
then launch Motion and open one of those templates again.
Look for any new messages that were generated.
Hope that helps.

HP Pavillion Does NOT work Straight Out of the Box after Purchase
My daughter bought a new HP Pavillion from Office Depot before starting computer classes at the university. The first one would not work at all and after the tech folks tried all that they could and it would not work, the Office Depot staff exchanged it for another one. Straight out of the box, it does not work. It crashes constantly. My daughter has spent HOURS that she needs for assignments on the phone with HP tech support. Here is where she stands with the situation now: She bought the extended warranty, but apparently that does not cover computers that don't work. The HP warranty....does not apparently assure that you get a working computer either, even when it's just days old and won't function. So....after spending from about 1p to nearly 6p today on the phone with HP tech support, she is not assured that it will work.
They are calling back on Friday to see.
So if it is NOT working, are we just out of luck with a piece of junk that does not function except as a word processor? That won't connect to the internet without crashing? We have been given no options or assurances.
( Post edited by Moderator) When you buy a computer, it should work when it's brand new. If you have a warranty, does that mean that HP stands behind their product and refund the consumer's money when it doesn't? The new HP Envy printer did not work, due to a defective ink cartridge enclosed with it. Does any HP product work at all?@Mariellynne
I have brought your issue to the attention of an appropriate team within HP. They will likely request information from you in order to look up your case details or product serial number. Please look for a private message from an identified HP contact. Additionally, keep in mind not to publicly post ( serial numbers and case details).
If you are unfamiliar with how the Forum's private message capability works, you can learn about that here.

Apple shows the new 6th gen nano with the new selection of watch faces and lager icons etc as per new update, but stores still have the 6th gen nano with just 3 watch faces and smaller icons etc. Is the newer spec just a software update that i do after purchase or does it come updated out of the box?
ThxIt should come out of the box with the new 1.2 update, but if it doesn't you can simply connect it to iTunes, download, and install the update from there.

Help Please - on a VC that works out of the box with MAC before I sellup
I have to declare that I’m somewhat frustrated at the moment and I could do with some good advise please bare with me while I explain.
I have recently converted from all types of PC systems and MS OS to Apple. The conversion was based on a few drivers.
1, My wife finally has decided to “learn” how to do her own web work instead of asking me to look up this or that for her. So as she was starting from scratch I thought MAC.
2, At the same time I had a play with Vista at work and disliked it. I was using XP & W2K at the time.
3, I wanted to update my home hardware, which was 3 years old.
4, The accountant said I hadn’t spent enough on IT last year.
5, New project work in the planning that required video/audio work to upload onto the web and everyone said MAC was the best.
So having looked around and done what I thought was enough research I started investing. To date I’ve invested £4500 plus.
Started by buying
iMAC 24” 2.8 Gz Intel with 4GB ram (for the home office)
MacBook Pro 2.4 with 4GB ram (for out and about working)
iPHONE 16GB (which is great)
VMware Fusion was installed for those things that I couldn’t live without until I found a suitable replacement like MS Money, Paint Shop Pro, MS Office etc. Installed XP.
Tried Open Office found it to clunky and hard work working off files for MS Office that others sent/required. Ended up buying Office 2008 only to find VB macros don’t work in Excel and all my company spreadsheets still need PC MS Excel to run so back into XP via Fusion.
Then to MAIL which is great on the iPHONE as I can easily monitor my 5 email accounts, what a result. But now I come to attach JPG files as I would in outlook and they open into the content of text in the mail and will not stay closed but disrupt the message. Wholly unacceptable to my way of working with no cure.
Scanning next, so I down loaded GIMP to replace PSP which I find useless so back to PSP I go again via XP & Fusion.
Next and finally the VC project, Now please bare in mind that all I want to do is shoot film, upload it to edit it and then mount it on the web page. I have no desire to become any form of expert in the field just get the job done.
So reviewed iMovie to understand the spec. Realise it has limitation and reviewed FCE which seems to plug the gaps and boarders on being more professional.
At this point I must say I’m not totally new to this subject as I have used Studio8 and a JVC GR-DVL166EK video cam a couple of years ago and got on ok without any issues simple plug and play with great results.
Having reviewed the standards that the software is reported to work too without any publicly declared exclusions or exceptions by Apple I went shopping for the VC. (I didn’t know of the forum at the time and to the best of my knowledge Apple don’t advise of its existence in any product information on anything I have bought.)
I buy a Panasonic HDC-HS9 for £700 which doesn’t flaming work despite the fact that it should based on all the standards quoted by both manufactures and there are no disclaimers from either party that it won’t work.
I have reviewed the compatibility list on the support page (now I know its there) and find that the Panasonic HDC-SD5 does work. I reviewed the comprehensive detailed model spec on the Panasonic web site and there is no differences between the to models at all accept the HDD.
So why don’t it work?
*At the end of the day can anyone please recommend a VC that will produce high quality results without the need of a 3rd party software to connect and upload files convert and muck about instead of getting on with the job.*
And if all the publicised specs don’t allow you to conclude compatibility how can you protect your investment? Where do we legally stand and where is the accountability to the consumer.
<edited by host>
I am that fed up with the last 3 months of mucking about Bill Gat*es may just get me back.
Thanking anyone in anticipation for some meaning advise and help.
Regards
AlanHi, and thanks for you interest. The problems is that whether I'm using iMovie or FCE I get to a stage where the thumbnail image is present but if you try to play, import or any other action in either app it closes down and a message comes up " The Application Final Cut Express/iMovie quit unexpectedly - Mac OS X and other application are not affected" then asks if I wish to relaunch. I then hit the report to Apple button and afterwards relaunch. I was recommended to use Voltaic which I have tried, it worked but is to much mucking about for something that should work out of the box.
This problem happens on both the iMAC and the MacBook so quite sure it's not a OS software issue. All software update are up to date also.
Any ideas? -
Not able to start out of the box approval workflow programmatically
We have a requirement to start an out of the box workflow from a .NET web service.
We are using the StartWorfklow method:
wfManager.StartWorkflow(item, association, association.AssociationData
we are getting the below error message at the above line of code: Attempted to perform an unauthorized operation.. Data: System.Collections.ListDictionaryInternal
Then, we tried:
SPSecurity.RunWithElevatedPrivileges(delegate()
wfManager.StartWorkflow(item, association, association.AssociationData,
SPWorkflowRunOptions.Synchronous);
Now, the workflow got canceled automatically with "Failed on Start" status. In the "Workflow History", it is showing 2 records with "was canceled by System Account." & "failed to start" in the description
column.
Please advise.Hi Zhengyu,
1. I've already done that:
a) when "SPSecurity.RunWithElevatedPrivileges(delegate()"
is used, there are no errors showing up and code gets executed. However, the workflow failed to start.
b) When I don't use elevated privileges, the code is showing an error (Attempted to perform an unauthorized operation.. Data: System.Collections.ListDictionaryInternal) when
it tries to start the workflow (StartWorkflow method).
2. The workflow starts with no issues through UI. I tried it using "System Account" and another account.
3. I tried also "Collect Feedback" workflow template. Same results...
You can find the code below:
public
stringStartItemWorkflow(stringsitePath,
stringlibraryName,
stringfileName)
stringreturnVal =
String.Empty;
stringwfName =
"VPApprovalWF";
SPUserTokentoken = GetSecurityToken(sitePath);

Add javascript to Out of the box Modal Dialogue Box in Sharepoint 2010.
Hi,
We have Sharepoint and Project Server 2010 SP-2 enviroment. We are using Project Server Timesheet for our managing Time logging.
Project Server 2010 has "Add existing task" Modal Dialogue box in which I want to add "Javascript" code in order to sort the Project Server Timesheet Line Claasification listbox control in Ascending order.
As you can see from below screenshot "Standard" the Out of the box timesheet line classification is coming at top and then our custom line classification coming.
But I want to sort this list in ascending order so that this "Standard line classification can come at the bottom of the listbox control.
Please suggest me how can I achieve this.
Thanks much !!!
Sachin Vashishth MCTSThanks SaiRam from input, I can get JQuery for sorting the control over the internet no issue. I have to pass the ControlId in J-Query to sor the items in that control and I am not able to get the control id as it;s modalk dialogue box.
Can you please explain further here, also let me know in case I am wrong in my understanding.
Thanks !!!

Dynamic DNS (via DHCP) out of the box?
Greetings!
I was just wondering... Does OS X support Dynamic DNS updates out of the box?
I can't seem to find any confirmation if 10.5 uses bootpd (which I think it does), and if bootpd supports dynamic DNS updates with the named service built into Leopard Server. There don't seem to be any options in Server Admin to enable this... So I'm a little hazy as how to enable dynamic DNS without compiling my own version of ISC-DHCP.
Just for clarification here; what I'm looking for is the ability to update a DNS zone with a PTR/A record(s) of machines that send a hostname as a part of retrieving a IP address from a DDNS-enabled DHCP server. Ie, "mybox" requests IP from DHCP server, DHCP server updates "mydomain.tld" with a record for "mybox", so that "mybox.mydomain.tld" is resolvable afterwards by the machines on this subnet.
Cheers,
-SCThis is a strange topic because implementing Dynamic DNS on Mac OS X Server looks like it should be child's play... so why hasn't Apple done it? Could it simply be that Apple sees no need for it at this time? Mac OS X clients don't need it to sit happy with a Mac OS X Server. Neither do Windows clients using a Mac OS X Server PDC.
Apple has implemented Dynamic DNS client support into the Active Directory Plug-in in Leopard. In this environment, of course, the client's DNS server is most likely to be an Active Directory-integrated DNS server which happily support DDNS. Unfortunately this Dynamic DNS facility is not immediately available to those not using the Active Directory plug-in. -
So, I have found the article
http://punaro.com/2012/01/derek/modifying-a-sharepoint-2010-workflow-email/comment-page-1/ which appears to walk through the process of modifying an out of the box workflow's mail message.
However, there is a basic problem that I run into before I get started.
I am logged into the system as a regular user (ie not a farm admin, etc.).
I do, however, have full control on the site on which I am working.
I create a custom list.
I create a simple one step approval - sharepoint 2010 out of the box workflow.
I start SharePoint designer and give it the URL of the list. It opens up and I see the various objects on the left side of the screen.
I click right on the Workflows object - which is where the article says I will find the ability to copy and modify the workflow.
All I see is "open", "open in a new tab" and "Pin".
I selecdt open in a new tab - and I get a blank screen labeled workflows that says "There are no items to show in this view".
So, I click on Lists and Libraries, then on the name of my custom list.
When the list displays, the Workflows section of the page has a "Modified Workflow" displayed.
When I right click on it, no menu is shown. When I click on the modified workflow, I get the workflow settings page for that workflow.
I am trying to figure out how to create the copy of the workflow so that I can modify one of the mail messages in SharePoint designer.
Is there someone who has some advice on how to find this copy and modify option? Or perhaps a web site, web forum, article series, or book covering the topic?
Thank you!Hi lwvirden,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want to modify the OOB approval workflow in SharePoint Designer.
After opening the site in SharePoint Designer, just click Workflows in the left panel and then the workflows in the site will load in the right part.
If you want to copy and modify the OOB approval workflow, then you need to right the approval workflow
Approval – SharePoint 2010 under Globally Reusable Workflow. After that you will see the
Copy and Modify button.
Best regards.
Thanks

Out of the box sharepoint online 2013 workflow
Hi All,
I have a workflow that sends a email to a user after creating a new document.
Now a want to attach a document to this email but this is not possible with the out of the box SharePoint 2013 solution. I use the SP 2010 workflow because I need to send a email to an external user.
Is there a solution that I can use to attach a document to a email in a workflow?Not possible out of the box. Just curious why would you want to email someone files over the email? I think the logical way is to simply send the item link. This will show user the item details and attachments.
Anyways, If that's the way you want to do it then check the following codeplex solution out.
http://spdactivities.codeplex.com/
I would still recommend you to send the current Item URL in the email instead of sending document as an attachment.
If this helped you resolve your issue, please mark it Answered -
Out of the box approval workflow suddenly failed on start (retrying)
SharePoint 2010. I've been using out of the box approval workflow for several month now. I did some minor changes to it, like to who and when emails should be send, but that's all.
Then out of a sudden it stopped working. New request status is "Failed on start (retrying)". Sometimes (!) status is "In Progress", but no tasks are created. In both cases there is nothing on workflow history and error report is also empty
(it even cause an error "Report contains no data").
I'm sure that I didn't change anything in a workflow. The only think that I changed was an InfoPath form, but I only added there field "Created By", so I would see in calendar later who created this request. I couldn't see how this might affect workflow
process.
I'm confused as I don't even know where to start searching for the solution. Why this might happen? Any ideas are very welcome!In my list I have a multiple choice field which is not required. When it was
blank my workflow was failing on start! This field was not involved in a workflow directly, I included it only in the email to approver. When I deleted it from an email everything was fine. -
Where is the SP 2010 out of the box workflow status value stored?
I created an out of the box Approval - SharePoint 2010 workflow (TEST1) on a custom list. When I created this out of the box workflow, I specified a name for the task (TEST1 Tasks) and history (TEST1 History) list.
The workflow is creating tasks, sending emails, and the task emails lead me to a screen where I can approve or reject the requests.
However, TEST1 - the list that contains the items created - doesn't have a status column. The TEST1 Tasks has a status column. But I would prefer the people working with the workflow just look at TEST1 and not the Tasks or History lists.
What is the preferred way to create one of these list workflows so that the admins only have to look at the specific tasks that have been submitted and they can see which have been approved or not?
Thank you
Thank you for your reply. Initially, I didn't have content approval turned on, had workflow approval turned on, but didn't have a status column. I also had an error in the history list that the status could not be created.
When I turned on the content approval, then I got a status column, but now my list has a warning across the top telling the user that their request won't be public until approved.
I don't really WANT a document approval workflow. But I don't see how to set up what I do want.
What I need is a simple custom list - a few lookup columns, the rest static data columns, that describe an action that is being requested. That request (ala the list item) is what needs to be approved or rejected. There is no publishing needed in this workflow.
The approval workflow was the closest I could see for setting up such a simple request workflow. -

How do I start over and bring my MacBook Pro to a brand new out of the box state?
I have a MacBook Pro with Retinal Display purchased in June 2012. I have backed up once using Time Machine. How do I put it back to the brand new just purchased out of the box state? Any ideas? I have done this with windows computers, but never a Mac.
To restore your MacBook to factory settings, you have to use Internet Recovery. Follow the steps:
1. Press Command, Option and R keys while your Mac is starting, and open Disk Utility.
2. Select Macintosh HD in the sidebar, go to Erase tab and erase the disk.
3. Close Disk Utility and reinstall OS X. This can take hours because your computer has to download OS X from the App Store.
After restoring the computer to factory settings, open App Store > Purchases to download iMovie, iPhoto and GarageBand -
