Mounting CD/DVD image (*.ISO file) under Windows 7

Does Encore, or any other prgram in the CS5 suite, have the ability to mount an ISO file as a CD or DVD under Windows 7?

Here is one program, but I have never used it: http://download.cnet.com/Mount-ISO-Files-Virtually/3000-2169_4-10628996.html
Good luck,

Encore cs4 creates invalid disc image (iso file)

I have a video I edit in premiere cs4, exported an .mpg file that I import into encore to create a DVD. This works mostly fine (I have to delete the .xmp* file before importing to encore).
Today I edited the video, re-encoded the mpg file using quality 5 and 2 pass vbr, and added a slide show (about 6 photos) to the encore project. It also builds fine to a disc image (iso file). But when I try to burn the iso file using windows 7, it tells me the iso image is invalid. I tried imgburn and got an error message like this:
session 1 track 1 MODE1 .... 2054
dvd format: MODE1 .... 2048
If I ask imgburn to continue it then says something about CSS and encryption, which I don't use, so I assume the iso file is too messed up.
I burned a DVD5 directly from encore, and it works in a dvd player.
Any idea why this invalid iso happens and whether there is a work-around?
Since cs4 is not the latest version, I assume there is no hope of bug fix?

There seem to be major problems in the disc creation process. I am struggling since several days now and I am not able to produce a working Blu-Ray Disk or iso image with Encore 5.5:
- when producing Blu-Ray ISO images, you get an ISO that is recognized as DVD iso in all virtual drive programs. Therefore, you cann not burn them on a BD-R disc, also viewing them is not possible because it is a "DVD with blu-ray content".
- when burning directly to disk, Encore does not close the sessing. This means, the Disk is not playable on all home Blue-Ray players. It was playable on my computer, but after closing the session manually the disc was a coaster.
- when burning on a virtual burner (Virtual CD 10), the Blue-Ray plays ok on my computer, but I am NOT able to make a ISO image from this disk because some errors (unreadable blocks) on the disk are reported during creation and image creation stops.
- from time to time (not reproduceable), Encore produces an additional AACS folder on the created Blu-Ray.
I am an experienced user and dont have any issues with other software solutions, but with Encore I was not able to get any usable results so far.

How to I buy an ISO file of Windows 8.1 to install on my new MacBook bootcamp?

How to I buy an ISO file of Windows 8.1 to install on my new MacBook bootcamp?
I can only find DVDs of Win 8.1; the online download is for upgrades from Win 7 only. I need a clean install version.

Yes, you can use a Parallels VM and run the Download Manager to download the Installation Media in a format of your choice. If your Mac has a built-in Optical drive, you can burn it. Please ensure you burn the DVD at the rate supported by the media. You should also verify the MD5sum/SHA1 for the downloaded file(s) using the Microsoft FCIV tool.

How to store ISO file at Windows azure Storage

Hello,
I wants to know How various way store ISO file at Windows Azure (or by Content Management)so that i will be get available cross different location for use.
Thanks
Richa Km

Hi Richa,
If you want to store a ISO image file in Azure Storage ,I suggest that you can try to use Azure Blob storage.
For Azure Blob storage is a service for storing large amounts of unstructured data, such as text or binary data, that can be accessed from anywhere in the world via
HTTP or HTTPS.
So that you can store a common ISO file use the Azure Blob storage, and you can get it anytime or anywhere .
For more information about how to use Azure Blob storage ,please refer to the link below:
http://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/articles/storage-dotnet-how-to-use-blobs/
Then you can use Azure storage Explorer to store ISO image file ,please refer to the link below:
https://azurestorageexplorer.codeplex.com/
You also can try the CloudBerry to store the ISO image file, please refer to the link below:
http://www.cloudberrylab.com/free-microsoft-azure-explorer.aspx

Kevin Shen.

Dumb question...once I build the DVD IMAGE (ISO) and a DVD FOLDER

Can I burn the ISO file FROM ENCORE or the DVD FOLDER?
thx

>Beyond that there's a whole army of tools that can burn ISO images, including Nero, DVD Decrypter or whatever.
DVD De3crypter is now illegal in most countries. Sony's legal team stopped it's creator - Lightning UK - from developing it on pain of lawsuits as it is capable of defeating most Copy Protection on DVD..
It metamorphosed into IMGburn, which is the (massively) updated burn engine from the sadly defunct DVDDecrypter.

Where is the .iso file for Windows 8?

I bought the ugprade for windows 8, and ran "Windows8-UpgradeAssistant"
It scanned my computer, all was good to go. I finished downloading something... (I assumed it was windows8)
But once I finished everything, it gave me a shortcut on my desktop called "Install Windows"
When I run that shortcut, it gives me 2 options:
-Install now
-Install later from your desktop
This is what I see everytime I run that shortcut file.
Where can I find my .iso file??
(Note, my current computer is not the computer I want to install Win8. I'm upgrading now so that I can get the ISO file and save it for later use when I get my new computer)

"Important: This tool provides valuable information about your computer's compatibility with Windows 8, facilitates the purchase of the Windows 8 download, and then downloads the correct
version (32-bit or 64-bit) based on information about
your computer - all important reasons to run this tool from the PC you're going to clean install Windows 8 on."
... I didn't know this, and I bought windows 8 on my current PC which is 5 years old.
I'm planning to get a new computer next month which will be 64-bit. Is there a way to re-download or am I out of luck?
On the Install Windows 8 screen, choose Install by creating media and
then click Next.
This step never showed up for me.

Providing users the ability to Merge using a DAT file under Windows 7

Hello,
Our organization uses older software that uses Word Templates with Merge Fields, pulling data out of a SQL database. The software itself is old and out of date, but still works under Windows 7. The problem I am having is that the software will
place its own macros inside of Normal.dot to properly merge fields using the Word Templates.
Each Merge document accesses the application folder and goes into a sub-folder to access a file called WORDDATA.DAT that is the data source for the merge. Each workstation has their own WORDDATA.DAT file stored locally in C:\APPLICATION\temp\
In XP (we never used Vista), the proper way to get these merges to work was to do the following:
1. Provide Power Users (see below) with Modify rights to the main APPLICATION folder and propagate those rights down to all files underneath of it (including WORDDATA.DAT). We also had to remove inheritable permissions from the root drive (C).
2. Add Domain Users to Power Users group (for some reason the merges on XP would not work without this) so that anyone logging onto the machine could merge.
3. These templates required the Low security setting for macros in Word for the merge to work properly.
The problem I am facing now is that I cannot get the merges to work properly under Windows 7 Pro without giving the user Administrator rights on the local machine. This is obviously not a good idea. No matter what I try, nothing seems to work.
I've disabled UAC on these machines. Given Full Control rights to the application folder and all sub-folders and have even gone so far as to make the user the Owner of the application folder. But no matter what I do, the merge will not work unless
the user is added to the local Administrators group. I've also noticed strange behavior with WORDDATA.DAT, where it will not relinquish the Read-Only attribute. After running 'attrib' and stripping it of Read-Only and System attributes, the file
reverts to showing Read-Only in the properties. I don't know if this matters or not, but it appears as if Windows will not let anyone modify that file completely.
Does anyone have a suggestion for a workaround? Keep in mind, 1. Disabled UAC, 2. Running the application under Compatibility Mode for XP.
I realize we are using outdated software and this can cause some issues of course, but the basic principle of merging documents works. It has nothing to do with the application itself IMO but seems to be more of a security issue.

I guess I'm completely out of luck on this issue huh? The basics of the problem are simply that unless the user is added to Administrator local group on the Win7 machine, when the merge runs and has to use WORDDATA.DAT, it cannot and the merge fails.
Add the user as an admin and it works but this leaves our systems vulnerable, particularly with users who are happy to just double-click on any old attachment without checking it first.

FAQ: Fix for Problem Printing PostScript "to file" Under Windows 2000

PROBLEM
A number of Acrobat users under Windows 2000 have reported a problem in which printing via the PostScript driver fails when printing "to file" instead of to a standard printer port (such an LPT, USB, TCP/IP port, or even Acrobat's internal port). Printing "to file" refers to the ability to check an option in programs such as FrameMaker or Microsoft Word that causes the PostScript that would have gone to a "real" printer port, to go to a specified file name, prompted for by the driver or application itself. The symptom of the failure may be either (1) no file produced and/or (2) a nondescript error message about "unable to print."
Although we have not yet heard of this problem occurring under Windows XP, we have no reason to believe it couldn't given the extreme similarity in architecture and software components. If you are seeing this with Windows XP, please advise me of this via email and simply substitute "Windows XP" for "Windows 2000" for your purposes in this posting.
CAUSE
The problem is caused by a missing printing port named "FILE:" used by the driver whenever it, guess what, prints "to file." This port is automatically created when Windows 2000 is installed and normally would never disappear. What seems to be happening, based upon reports that I have received from several end users, is that under some conditions yet unidentified, uninstalling one version of Acrobat in preparation for installation of another (newer) version of Acrobat causes the "FILE:" port to be deleted from the system. This printing port deletion does not appear to be caused by any end-user error.
Adobe's Acrobat Quality Assurance group has been alerted to the problem, but to date has been unable to internally reproduce the problem. We would appreciate any information from any user who encounters this problem in terms of exactly how the Acrobat Distiller printer instance was being used prior to an uninstall of Acrobat (for example, were you printing a FrameMaker book "to file" with the
Acrobat Distiller printer instance for purposes of subsequently distilling the whole book manually?)
FIX
Fortunately, it is very easy to add the "FILE:" port back into the operating system:
(1) Logon to Windows 2000 as a user with Administrator privileges.
(2) Go to Start=>Settings=>Printers.
(3) Select File=>Server Properties.
(4) Click the "Ports" tab.
(5) Click "Add Port".
(6) Select "Local Port" and click "New Port".
(7) In response to "Enter a port name:" respond "FILE:" (without the surrounding quote marks, of course) and click OK.
(8) The "FILE:" port should now be in the list of available ports. You may close the remaining dialogs.
At this point, printing "to file" should work correctly. Most likely, you will not see the problem reoccur unless you do another round of uninstalls of Acrobat.

You need to download and install the ADPDF9.PPD printer description and use it instead of Device Independent.

ISO FILE FOR WINDOWS BOOTABLE DISC - ISO FILE DOES NOT WORK

Hi Guys!
So I'm attempting at loading windows on my new iMac via Boot Camp, I've created the ISO file, and am trying to add it on boot camp and it simply doesn't work (even though my destination drive is MS FAT 32.
Reference this
http://support.apple.com/en-is/HT203909
Heres a screen shot of what pops up when i try to load the ISO file!!
Can anyone help me?

Please correct me if I am incorrect.. you are trying to make a bootable USB with a Windows File using Disk Utility to the use it to boot it with bootcamp? If that's the case i would advise creating the bootable device directly from the bootcamp app, and not from disk utility

Burn a cpio file under windows xp?

hi all
i'm downloading oracle ias 10g r2 for unix. i saw that these are cpio files and i don't have a clue how i can burn them on a cd now under windows... i searched on google but didn't find much.
thanks very much for help.
josh

Scroll down a bit on the Download page, and you'll see the following text:
On UNIX:
To extract the cpio file, move the cpio file to an empty directory, then do: cat filename.cpio | cpio -icd. To verify the integrity of a downloaded file, after the file has been transferred to a Unix host, run cksum and compare with the cksum information listed on this page.

Can I boot from an image (*.iso) file?

I have XP Pro and OSX on my MBP using bootcamp only (not parallels or fusion). I can boot in linux from a CD when I initiate bootcamp (option key on startup). Can I locate the image from the CD on my computer and boot without the CD (and if so where do I put the file)? I want to use triple boot now to add Linux, but don't really want to repartition for it. If there was an easy tool to put an additional 10G partition for Linux I would do that.
Thanks

How can you have a partition for Linux without a partition? You do not want to repartition but yet you want a new partition. Have you really thought out what you want?

Executing compiled file under windows

Hi there,
i got the following problem:
i installed the jdk 1.5.0_06 on windows xp
i did set environmental variables (Path, JAVA_HOME)
i compiled a simple HelloWorld.java program
no problems there, result was HelloWorld.class
but when i want to start the whole thing the only thing i get is an exception.
i tried:
java HelloWorld.class
java HelloWorld
both tries resulted in:
"Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: HelloWorld"
i looked the exception up on java site, which brought me following result:
"public class NoClassDefFoundError
extends LinkageError
Thrown if the Java Virtual Machine or a ClassLoader instance tries to load in the definition of a class (as part of a normal method call or as part of creating a new instance using the new expression) and no definition of the class could be found.
The searched-for class definition existed when the currently executing class was compiled, but the definition can no longer be found. "
now im pretty new to java programing and wouldnt call myself a pro c/c++ programer either... so i dont have any clue what the problem is about the whole thing. would be very thankful for any hints.
i add the java code of the helloworld program, maybe its helpful...:
thnx in advance
public class HelloWorld /* extends object */ {
     public static void main(String[] args) {
          System.out.println("Hello World!");
          int a, b, c;
          a = 17;
          b = 21;
          c= (a*a)+(b*b);
          for (int i=0; i<10; i++)
               System.out.println(i);
     } //main
} // HelloWorld

Simple classpath issue. Research what the "classpath" is for. In the meantime, this simple example would be fixed like this:
java -classpath . HelloWorld

SWF files under Windows Media player

When running .swf files in a .net application (running the
Microsoft Media Player control), the files play correctly but
either loop continuously (if loop is set to true) or hold on the
last frame displaying continously. The application requires that
the file plays and then closes allowing another one in the playlist
to start.
The application works fine with other media types such as
mpg's wmv's and avi's but I don't want to use these for obvious
size and ease of use purposes.

Try your "My Music" folder; that's the default repository for music ripped by WMP.
