Multiple thumbnails of the same Shape image in Content Palette

Hi everyone,
I have PSE 9, operating on a Mac.
Is it normal to see multiple copies (up to four) of the same shape thumbnail in the Contents Palette drop down menu?
This only seems to happen with the Shapes, not the Backgrounds or Frames etc.
It also doesn't happen when selecting from the Cookie Cutter or Custom Shape Tools.
I have been removing the duplicates from the Content Palette by dragging to Trash but you can only do one at a time.
Does anyone know why this is and if there is a quicker way to delete them?
Thank you

Multiple versions of the same RAW image

Hi All,
It's posible to have multiple versions of the same RAW file. Let's say I work my RAW file and make some changes, can those changes become an independent file? I want to be able to go back to the original RAW file without loosing any other version already created.
Best regards,
Jose

Hi Kim,
May be you can try this and see if this works for you. I am not 100% sure if it will work for you, but worth a try I guess. Create a Test WebDynpro project and try the following steps on this project. If they work out correctly and serve the purpose for you only then try them on your actual Web Dynpro project.
1. Create a test Web Dynpro project say "TestWDProject" with Component say "Comp1" and the default views and windows etc.
Also create some working application our of this component and Windows using the Context.
2. Right click the "Comp1" and select Copy.
3. Right click 'Components" node in the project structure and select "Paste"
4.This step will try to paste the copy of Comp1 as a new Component.
5. You can change the Name and Package of the Component.
6.Similarly you'll get the prompts for views,windows etc.
7.Once you have copied everything, Just check if everything looks good.
8.Now you can create a new Application using this new component and the Component Interface View and Deploy it.
9.Test whether the Application created out of this copy works same as the original component.
You can also try to create another Web Dynpro project and paste the Comp1 in the Components node of that new project and perform the same steps.
Again, try with these Test Projects and see if this serves your purpose before applying the steps on actual projects.

Confused about synching multiple phones to the same computer with different content: itunes wants to erase everything??

I have had an i5 for some time, but my partner just bought one to replace her 3GS. We both synch to my itunes, and have been doing so for as long as I can recall. When we got her i5, we backed up her 3GS and reloaded the content into her i5. So far so good. Now, this couple of weeks later, I decided I wanted to put some of the movies, music, etc. that I have on my itunes library on her phone. I had previous installed some of the apps that I have there without trouble. However, when I tell my itunes to put movies (etc) onto her phone, it warns me (upon apply) that this phone has been sync'ed to another itunes, and that I can do what I am asking, but it will erase everything on the phone now! I cancelled this op at this point.
As far as I know neither of us has sync'ed her phone to any other itunes, although she has probably downloaded stuff directly into the phone using the onboard itunes. Is that what it's warning me about? Is there any way to either pull the content off the phone, or merge the content with what she had locally downloaded? If not, I'm willing to sacrifice the few things that she had locally loaded as long as it's not going to, for example, erase all her photos, and contacts, and everything else as well at the same time!
This is all rather confusing to me. It's actually rather confusing that one can synch multiple devices with different settings at all, and I'm extremely surprised that it works at all. Can someone clarify what's going on here? What I should/shouldn't do? What I can/can't do?
Thanks in advance!

First make sure you have authorised the iTunes computer you are using for all of the associated apple ID's via the Store Menu>Authorise this computer and enter the apple ID and password used on the phone (repeat for as many apple ID's are in use on the phone).
Then right-click (or Control Click) on the name of the phone and select Transfer Purchases (this can also be found under File>Device>Transfer purchases). This will back up all of the purchases on the device to your computer, then when you sync with the phone it will put them back on even though it has just removed them.
Its a round about way of doing it but she shouldn't loose anything as long as the computer is authorised for all of the apple ID's used on the phone

How to manage multiple sizes of the same image?

I recently took up LightRoom for all the good things it does. One of the things I need to do, however, is to create and manage multiple sizes of the same image needed for different purposes. I always found this cumbersome. I totally expected that the LR library would offer a solution for this but I looked and I didn't see anything. Sure you can export and resize in the process but then you're on your own. Am I missing something? Isn't there a better way? What does Adobe have in mind for best practices and how do you handle this?

I can't speak for 99jon, but when I need multiple sizes, I export at the desired sizes, and then make use of the exported photos (upload, e-mail, whatever) and then delete the exports. Thus, there's really no need for me to keep track of the photo at this specific size, knowing that if I ever need it again -- unlikely -- I can regenerate it with the export pre-set, so I put no effort (zero!) into keeping track of photos at different sizes.
The idea of adding it back into the catalog doesn't get me excited, and I would advise against it. I don't need this, and I don't see the benefit of keeping this particular size export for the long-term. As I said, I can always recreate it — but maybe you have such a need to keep these exports long-term and recreating it at a later point in time doesn't meet your needs? Can you explain?
By the way, you can't resize a virtual copy, so that won't work here. The only time you can resize is on export.

I keep getting the same preview image for multiple photos

In my iPhoto Library and some of my folders the same preview image is showing for many of my images. When I enlarge or export those images or folders the correct image shows. Any ideas what is messing with the preview?
Thanks.

Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild.

WDS 2012 R2 - Cannot PXE multiple clients at the same time

Hello All,
This is my first post on here so I apologize if this is the wrong place. I work for a school district and we are implementing WDS 2012 R2. We've been extremely satisfied with the speeds and ease of use through unattend files. However, for
the past month I've been looking for a possible answer to a problem that has plagued us from day one of implementation.
So here's the problem:
I have a stand alone WDS server which is not a domain controller and is not our DHCP server. I have IP helpers and broadcast forwarders setup on the network. As well as option 66 and 67 in DHCP. So far so good right!
Well that's partially right. When we boot one client at a time to the WDS server. Everything works as intended. We can TFTP the necessary files from the WDS server. Everything boots up and we're off and running.
However, if we boot up two or more clients at the same time. The WDS server never responds to the traffic. The clients get their DHCP information. They start the referral and download from the WDS server, but get no response. I'm
really hoping that someone on here would have some insight of something I can try. I've about exhausted my list of peers and contacts. They're all stumped as well and were smart enough to stay with 2008 WDS.
I would prefer to stick with 2012 R2 since it's setup and working for the most part. With only this one hiccup.
Thanks in advance for any guidance!

Hello Daniel,
I appreciate the reply and apologize for taking so long to get back to this. Things have been a little hectic over here.
I have tried everything on this forum and I am still unsuccessful in PXE booting multiple clients at the same time.
Multicast is enabled on the server, and it works for the clients. However, as stated in the original post. I cannot boot multiple machines at the same time. I can start them from the image selection screen around the same time though. So,
that appears to be working fine.

Lightroom CC issues with multiple export at the same time

Back before Lightroom updated to the CC version, I was able to use export presets to send 4 different versions of the photos I'm working on at the same time (A Full Size for client at certain size, full size for myself, web-sized with watermark and a thumbnail). Since updating to the CC version, I'm only able to start the export process on two of these versions before the system simply becomes crippled and I cannot even navigate through Lightroom without it chugging along.
For reference, I'm running a 2014 rMBP with 16GB of RAM, LR is the only app open at the time and it's showing that I have roughly 6GB of RAM free when attempting this export.
TL;DR: LR5 worked wiht multiple exports at the same time, but LRCC now chugs after 2 exports are started

Re: "Selecting video in Messages, now starts Face time for video. Face time is one to one only."
Apple "Messages" supports two different types of video conferencing. It's become more than a little confusing. If you (or the person on the other end) ONLY have accounts set up for Apple's "iMessage" service (associated with your Apple ID and "iCloud") you may see the video symbol, but when you click on it you will be connected via FaceTime which is limited a 1-to-1 video conference.
However, if you have set up an AIM account in Messages (you may already have an AIM account ID if you once used iChat for video, audio and screensharing) and the person at the other end also has an AIM account you will be connected via AIM and will be able to do screen sharing and multi-person video conferences just like the old iChat, i.e. you'll have iChat Theater features, up to 4-way conferencing, etc.
It can get very confusing if, for example, you've signed up for AIM using a .me or .cloud email address. But once you have it set up and learn to recognise the way Messages switches between AIM and iMessage all the old iChat features work just fine in Messages.

Multiple devices with the same GUID

Hi,
According to the Zenworks Command line utilities reference https://www.novell.com/documentation...a/bb15p2z.html
There exists an option to register a device with a new GUID by doing the following...
register (reg) [-g] [-k <key>] [-u <username> -p <password] <ZENworks Server addressort>
Registers the device in a Management Zone.
You can use the following options:
g - Lets you create a new device object with a new GUID and password for the device if you have multiple devices with the same GUID. When you register a device by using this switch, all the associations (policies and bundles) assigned to the original device object are removed. You cannot use this option to create a new GUID for a Primary Server or a Satellite device. The local user must have Local Administrator rights to use this option.
I would like to know if it is possible to have such a command line option for the agent installation. So built into the agent installer, a command line option to force the agent to register with a new GUID.
We are having CONTINUOUS problems with the above scenario. When we move devices from one computer lab to another and re-image the device, Zenworks keps trying to assign the same GUID to the device and this mixes up our Dynamic Workstation groups, which then affect the applicable policies to each device.
I would like to know if there is an option to tell the installer to stop remembering the GUID and simply register the device with a new guid on agent installation.
This way we can build that into the post imaging scripts which install the zenworks agent.

Hi Craig,
OK, I've had a look at the ZCM Reconcile rules and run a few tests to see if it is possible to get the machines not to reconcile (use a new GUID after imaging).
As I have explained before, sometimes this result is desired in our case especially when we move machines around from lab to lab.
So far, no matter what configuration I use, I cannot get Zenworks to generate a new GUID for a device that is getting re-imaged (without doing so only after the fact by unregistering the machine and reregistering the machine via the zac und and zac reg -g).
We use dynamic workstation groups to assign policies and bundles to machines so reconciling the devices is not necessary most of the time. We need an option to tell the machine to register with a new GUID on installation of the agent. Surely such an option can be built into the agent installer?
The options in the ZCM config management "reconcile settings" I tested with are:
Serial Number - Unticked/Unselected
Mac Address - Unticked/Unselected
Machine Name - Unticked/Unselected
Enable Differentiation - Unticked/Unselected
I then also tested:
Serial Number - Unticked/Unselected
Mac Address - Unticked/Unselected
Machine Name - Ticked/Selected
Enable Differentation - Ticked/Selected
and also:
Serial Number - Unticked/Unselected
Mac Address - Unticked/Unselected
Machine Name - Ticked/Selected
Enable Differentation - Unticked/Unselected
With all three different configurations, I re-imaged the same machine, which renames the machine via the first post imaging installation script to match the DNS name. Thereafter the Zenworks agent gets installed, which then renames the machine back to what it was registered into the Zenworks database with on first installation.
We need a method of telling Zenworks NOT to reconcile when we want it to. It should not reconcile every time and thereby rename the machine netBIOS name.
Is there any way to achieve this?

If a new computer were to replace an old computer but the name stayed the same, everything could be automatic depending on the rules setup.
It is all a matter of how you tell ZCM to reconcile devices.
The Help in the ZCC under these items should explain how it works so you can setup your rules to meet your use cases.

I can convert almost things multiple times at the same time including CMYK to RGB (or sRGB), but not RGB to CMYK and not brighten/contrast. How?

If you want a relevant answer you may have to elaborate on what you actually mean. Posting screenshots might help, too.
In any case multiple conversions of an image are not advisable in general.

Best practice for multiple instances of the same BEX query

Hi there,
I'm wondering what's the best way to use multiple instances of the same BEX query. Let me explain what I mean:
I have a dashboard with different queries feeding different period of time such as: week to date, month to date and so on. One query for each since it is based on a user exit.
For each query I want to show different data in different sections of my dashboard. Per example: sales per directors or sales per customer group, sales per day, sales per week and the like.I tried to connect a simple bar chart via a direct connection but with no success due to the multiple lines generated by the addition of the sales director, customer group, week number and so on.
My question is about the way to connect the different queries efficiently in order to show the different data while avoiding multiple useless lines.
The image above shows the query browser where, per example, for a Month to date query there will be mutiple line for each week as well as one line for each director. If, for two different components, I want to show data per week and data per director or other representation what is the best practice:
Add another instance of the same query and only put the week information and another one will only the director info?
Should I bind those to the excel file and use formulas to make final calculations?
Will there be a performance issues for adding different instances of the same query
I have 6 different queries (read 6 user exit that filters time via user exit).
Depending on the best practices there might be 4 instances for each for a total of 24 instances in the query browser.
I hope my question is clear enough, if not please do not hesitate I'll clarify as much as possible.
Regards,
Steve

Hi Steve,
Might be trying for solution for a long time, If i understood your question clear let me clarify you few points.
You are trying to access the bex query which is designed with the exit's in the background based on the logic and trying to call the entire dimensions and key-figures in a single connection. Then you are trying to map those data in the charts.
Steve, try to make more connections based upon the logic and split them. use the same query but split them by sales per customer group, sales per day, sales per week by making three different connections and try. You can merge the prompts from all connections.
Hope this Helps!!!
Sorry if i misunderstood your question.

Stop opening multiple instances of the same application

I am used to having graphic files on my desktop, when editing one I would simply right-click and pick "open with" > Photoshop (which is always open in its own desktop in my computer). Now out of the blue, if I do that, it loads another instance of Photoshop, which is certainly what I don't want. I can have 2, 3, 4 Photoshops running at the same time and editing the same image!
Any idea how to solve this? I searched but all I could find is people wanting the opposite i.e. opening multiple instances of the same app.

Your best bet to prevent this is to detach or unmount this drive; however, you can also try resetting your Mac's launch services, to have it re-scan only the Applications folders on your boot drive for programs to associate with documents and services you are using. Running the following command in the OS X Terminal will kill the current launch services database (its long, but copy and paste the entire line):
/System/Library/Frameworks/CoreServices.framework/Versions/A/Frameworks/LaunchServices.framework/Versions/A/Support/lsregister -kill
Following this, run the following command to seed the database with the apps you currently have installed:
/System/Library/Frameworks/CoreServices.framework/Versions/A/Frameworks/LaunchServices.framework/Versions/A/Support/lsregister -seed
Note that these changes will only apply when opening documents that have not been specifically assigned to a program. If you find a specific document continues to open the program on the external drive, then you can get info on it and change the associated program in the "Open With" section of the info window. After doing this, you might need to re-run these commands above, as opening the program will register it with OS X's launch services and have it now be available for automatically handling other documents.

Multiple copies of the same picture

I am using iPhoto 8 with OS X 10.5.3. I have very little HD space available and need to clean up a very messy iPhoto library. I began by opening iPhoto and finding multiple duplicates of the same photos. I moved them to the TRASH and deleted them within iPhoto. However, when I reopen iPhoto, they are still there. When I use spotlight to look for where the copies are I will find them in a variety of locations: iPhotoLibrary/Originals or iPhotoLibrary/Data, or in iPhotoLibrary/(a folder that I made up, for example, a year the picture was taken. I want to trash all the duplicates, but I am not sure what the best way is to find the duplicates and then to select which one to keep.

To add a twist to Terence's directions on getting just your original files out and imported into a new library. Open the library and COPY the Originals folder out of the library. Open the Originals folder and do a search of it (Command-F) and search for images less than 1MB. Drag those found to the Trash in the dock.
Now launch iPhoto with the Option key depressed and, when asked, select Create a new library. When it's open drag the Original folder sans smaller files into the open iPhoto window. This will give you the same Events that you had in your earlier library. Might save you some organizational effort. Good luck.
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.≤br>
Note: There now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.

What is the best way to set up multiple devices in the same household?

Our family has a bunch of devices (phones,pads,pods) all set up under the same appleID. The idea was to be able to share iTunes content among devices. The problem is that there is personalized data merging between devices (address book, apps, etc). Is there a way to set up multiple devices under the same account while maintaining their own identity so that Each user can have their own apps, addresses, etc without having to sift through everyone else's stuff?

Continue to share your iTunes ID, but use different IDs for other services such as FaceTime, iMessage and iCloud. (When you share the same iCloud account across multiple devices, any synced data is merged and the merged list appears on all devices sharing the account.)
To change the ID For:
iMessage, go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive (Receive At in iOS 5), tap the ID sign out, sign back in using the other ID.
FaceTime, do the same thing in Settings>FaceTime.
iCloud, you'll have to delete the account, create a new account with the other ID, and migrate your data to the new account. Before deleting the account, if you have any photos in photo stream that are not in your camera roll or backed up somewhere else save these to your camera roll or you will lose them. To do this, open the photo stream album in the thumbnail view, tap Edit, tap all the photos you want to save, tap Share, then tap Save to Camera Roll. Once this is done, go to Settings>iCloud, scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account. When prompted about what to do with the iCloud data, be sure to select Keep On [iDevice]. Next, set up a new iCloud account using a different Apple ID (if you don't have one, tap Get a Free Apple ID at the bottom). Then turn iCloud data syncing for contacts, etc. back to On, and when prompted about merging with iCloud, choose Merge. This will upload the data to the new account. Finally, to un-merge the data you will then have to go to icloud.com on your computer and sign into each iCloud account separately and manually delete the data you don't want in each account (such as deleting the other person's contacts from your account, and vice versa).

How do you add multiple effects to the same clip

How do you had multiple effects to the same clip. I have tried for hours
I would like to add sepia and aged movie to the same clip. I heard it can be done, but have not figured out how to do it.
anyone please.

Normally you can apply only one video effect at a time. But for Sepia, black and white, and others that can be done through the video Adjustments tab, you are in luck.
Aged Movie should already have a bit of a sepia tone.
If you want more of a sepia tone or you want to fine tune the sepia effect you can do it with the Clip Inspector/Video Adjustments tab.
Note: Thanks to Jeff Carlson of MacWorld for this tip.
If you're looking for a washed-out sepia appearance, first open iMovie's preferences and turn on the Show Advanced Tools option, which adds more controls to the Video Adjustments HUD and other areas of the program. Select the clip you want to alter and press the V key. Set Saturation to 0 percent, and then drag the Red Gain slider to 143 percent, the Green Gain slider to 90 percent, and the Blue Gain slider to 53 percent (feel free to tweak these settings to customize the results). Click on Done when you're finished. Note that the clip thumbnail still appears in color, as the video was shot, but the preview reflects your changes.--JC
If you need to apply the same settings to all clips, first select the clip you have adjusted. Then Edit/Copy. Then Edit/Select All. Then Edit/Paste Adjustments.

Is there any version of Indesign that allows to open multiple instance at the same time

I am using Indesign CS3 to generate the bulk reports automatically(programmatically) using Adobe indesign library . One of the key limitation to this tool is it allows to open only one instance at a time unlike word where multiple instances can be opened at the same time. Is there any adobe indesign too version desktop/server which allows to open multiple instances at the same time. Any help on is appreciated. Thanks.

@PeterG
You said "You might want to examine the End User Licensing Agreement (EULA) for any prohibition against using these two instances at the same time with the same license; the license does permit two installs for the same user that are not used simultaneously."
