Need advice for Fn key usage in Motion.

I am just beginning my usage of Motion 4 and working through Mark Spencer's book. The book keeps referring you to use the Fn keys. But mine don't work the way they are supposed to. I went into System prefs and selected the use all Fn keys and when I go back into the program to use them I press the fn key and the appropriate Fn key (ex. F5 to open the project pane) and all I get is a beep and nothing happens. If I just use the F-F8 procedure it will just add an f or a 5 etc, into the area at the bottom for the current time. Or if I hit the Fn-F8 it opens iTunes. I know I can work it out by using the long way around. But I know it is easier to use the function keys from experience in the CS4 suites. Is there anything I am not trying or something anyone can recommend to make these work properly?
Thanks,
Scott

That's what I have been counting on. However, when I press F5 for example, it takes whatever is on the canvas and replaces the bounding box with a red rectangle. I am somewhat proficient on a Mac but this is the first issue I have come across.

    Is there something specific in TP4 that you want to use TP4 - as John suggests, it might be an idea to use the full production release (11g). As for resources for information you can check out
    [Jdev Home|http://otn.oracle.com/products/jdev] this page contains links to the developers guides and various how tos etc etc. The follownig page is also useful and is focused more to those who are less familiar with Java

  • Need advice for wireless iTunes access (have router already)

    I'm having a hard time sifting through all the info to find the best solution. I have a MacBook Pro that I'll soon be upgrading to Lion from Snow Leopard, as well as an iPhone, with a second iPhone soon to enter the family. We also plan to get an iPad. We actually have an older iMac that we won't be upgrading, so we're going to move our iTunes library from the iMac over to the MacBook (basically turning the MacBook into our primary computer). We want to be able to play iTunes without having to keep the MacBook plugged into wired speakers. That seems a bit pointless.
    We have a wireless router already (a D-Link), so I don't need AirPort Express to act as a router. (We have a 1 bedroom condo, really no reason to extend the network or anything like that.) We have a printer that works wirelessly with the MacBook already. All I'm really trying to figure out is the best way to set it up so that we can have iTunes on the MacBook, playing over speakers (either the ones we currently have our iMac plugged into, or our stereo speakers that we have our TV setup with). Ideally if we could do the same from the iPhone and (future) iPad, that would be great, too.
    Does it make any sense for us to get an AirPort Express to do this, or would it just be more straightforward to get wireless speakers that can work over Bluetooth (like the Creative D200 ones in the Apple store)? I feel like the AirPort has the potential to be overkill for our usage, especially since I can't seem to figure out if you can use AirTunes with an iPad, and we don't need it for the wireless printing functions.
    Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!

    Thanks Leo! Yeah, I was confused about the 2500 series too because they push the Flex 7500 so much as the "real" solution.
    Now that I'm looking in the right spot, it looks like NCS Prime Infrastructure is for the serious folks and we could probably get away without it, right? So that would leave the access points, the controller, and the basic network stuff.

  • Need advice for escalating warranty repair

    hi all,
    around easter I noticed my daughters 2007 C2D macbook(white) developing hairline cracks in the backcase near three stress points, near the tabs on both sides that hold it off the topcase and in the middle from constant opening of the machine. the local genius said applecare would cover it but she needed it for school so I delayed sending it in. My Bad. She comes home with a chip in the topcase and about 12-14 dead pixels in the display. Sent it off for repair and Apple said the screen showed signs of abuse( not completely out of the question) due to one section that seems to have been "bruised" and is leaking. Unless she or a spurned lover took an icepick to the screen I don't see how she caused over a dozen pixels scattered all over the display to fail but I am not an engineer. The problem is they will not perform the case repair unless I agree to the $800 LCD replacement. The reason being they can't perform a partial repair. The way I heard it is until I replace the LCD at my expense apple in unable to do any warranty repairs and i have 14 Months of Applecare left. My local apple store is closed for renovations or I would go there where they recognize me for advice. Powerbook Medic quotes $250 for screen replacement. should I do that and then resubmit the machine to Apple for case repair? Is there a Phone number for customer service other than tech support I could try to escalate this case with? The only one I see is the Apple Store CS for orders and such. Anyone have any thoughts or recommendations?
    Thanks,
    Frank

    Is there a Phone number for customer service other than tech support
    You call the support line and asked to be transferred to customer relations.

  • Need advice for installing flex application in touch screen Kiosks

    Hello,
    We have a requirement in one of our project to create touch screen interfaces and I am intending to user Adobe Flex for the development and run them in Adobe Air because, definitely it saves development time and great look and feel.
    However, I need advice on how to connect the application to a touch screen events like we do on  Keyborad and mouse events like, click() or onFocus etc.
    Please advice.
    Best Regards,
    Jai Kishan Shah

    Bar Code Scanners are no different than keyboards in my experience.  It just sends the text to whatever application is open. Integrating it with Flex requires no effort.  You just have to be sure that Flex is the current application and the field you want to put the data in is given focus.
    In a point of sale application with very specific use case and limited interface, it is easy to force the app to give focus to the input field that needs to accept your input.
    Credit card swipers work the same way.
    I don't know about a weighing scale, but I bet it is very similar.  If not, you may want to use Java for scale integration and then use Merapi to integrate with the Java applet.

  • Need reference for Visa2 Key Diversification Function

    I've been trying to find a definitive specification for the Visa2 master key to card key diversification function, but with no luck. I did find a Gemalto document that instead of using the diversification data supplied in the 0xCF 'GET DATA' response and the response to an "INIT UPDATE", specifies derivation based on the CPLC data (and calls that Visa2).
    Has any one got a better pointer?

    My question was "what is the reference document for the VISA2 key diversification function?".
    I didn't ask about EMV key derivation because I already had that reference.
    The CPLC data is NOT the same as the tag CF or INIT UPDATE diversification array. And in no GP document that I've found is it required to be. In fact the guidance is that CF is derived from tag 42 and tag 45 - card issuer and card id.
    And FYI - I think the reference document for Visa2 key diversification is "VISA Card Production Guide" - probably 1.0, but I can't get a copy of that. Given other text I've found, I think the Gemalto "use the CPLC for diversification for VISA" is probably correct. But without a copy of the reference I can't confirm that.

  • Need Information for the Status & usage in the routing

    HI all,
    I need some inforamation ,  what is impact if i will use in the routing ,  usage 1- Production & 4 -- released general &  Suppose i will use universal 3  &  4 released general .  What will be impact .
    Regrads
    satish

    Hi Satish ,
    Task list type usage Key specifies the areas in which the task list can be used (for Example, in production or plant Maintenance).
    Status: You use the status key to indicate the processing status of a task list.  For example, you can indicate whether the task list is still in the creation phase or has already been released.
    Dependencies: Note that certain transactions are dependent upon the status of the task list. For example, you can only include a reference operation set in a routing if the routing has the status "Released (general)".
    Case 1: If you use
    Usage 1 - Production     If you use the usage key as 1 that means that the task list can only be used in Production if the status is released only.
    Status 4 - Released (General)    
    Case 2 :
    If you use
    Usage - 3   Universal   which means that the routing can be used in the Production , Engg/ Design, Plant maintenance  areas etc if the status is released only.
    Status - 4 Released(General)
    Hope it is useful for you.
    Thanks

  • Need advice for an application that restricts access to other applications using a smart card

    Hello everybody,
    I am developing a system that uses a smart card reader attached to a USB port of a PC.
    What the system should provide is:
    When computer boots up and shows the users login screen, a user, previously registered, can use his smart card to access the system, instead of entering his password
    Once the user is logged in, when he tries to launch an application, which has previously marked as "secured", a dialog box is shown indicating that the user has to present his smart card. If the smart card has access to the application, the application
    is launched, otherwise an error message is shown to the user and the application is not executed.
    I develop in C++ and C#. I have already created a library (in Visual C++) that manages the smart card reader and provides the card presented to it.
    Now I am developing the applicastion (in C#) that will configure the security (assigning cards to users and applications).
    Concerning this, I have 2 questions regarding each point above:
    Is it possible to create the centralized application that lists all users and allows to assign cards to them? Then, when the users login screen is shown, the system must access that data before logging in, so that it can check which card was presented and
    what user it corresponds to. I have seen in laptops, that have embedded fingerprint readers, a user must login to his account first and then he can register his fingerprints. In fact, what I need to do is something similar but with smart card reader instead
    of fingerprint reader. So, perhaps, user must login into his account first and then he will be able to add his card and store that information somewhere (in windows registry maybe).
    How can I launch my application when other application is executed but before its interface is actually shown? this is similar to what antivirus programs do, because they check the executable before it is actually ran. What is the best method to address
    the application? by executable file name? process name? or other? if the best is by process name, how can I know the process name without actually running the application?
    Well, that is all what I need to do. Please advice regarding this subject.
    I look forward to hearing from you,
    Best regards,
    Jaime

    > what was the guidance?
    1. Research other software that does similar things (not just exactly the same) as you need. If you like something in their solutions, copy it :)
    The only software I know that does that is an antivirus, but I am unlucky to find some code in c++ that allows to intercept the program execution before actually executing it.
    2. If a kernel driver would fit in your solution, go for it (google for what is available for free, or find a consultant to write it for you).
    There are a lot of information about kernel drivers, but the question is, is that really the solution?
    Otherwise, you can just hide the application from user's reach and substitute the executable in shortcuts, etc. to run your program instead.
    Definetly this is not the way to go
    What is the best method to address the application? by executable file name? process name? or other?
    By executable file name, like in the Windows Applocker, I think. Processes do not have names (they are artifact of Task manager and debugging tools, to represent the processes for user somehow). Or, only by the filename part of the full path.
    I agree with that
    if the best is by process name, how can I know the process name without actually running the application?
    When the user runs the application, the driver will detect this and do its magic.
    I have found this page: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3556048/how-to-detect-win32-process-creation-termination-in-c. They mention WMI, but I will study it tommorow... it is so late for today :-)

  • Need advice for SAP installation on External  Hard disk

    Hi Gurus,
    I have HP laptop with configuration of 512 MB RAM and 50 GB hard disk...i recently bought 250 GB segate external  hard disk for SAP installation...My doubt here is if i  install SAP in external hard disk and will it work properly if i connect my laptop?
    ur advice is much appreciated
    Regards
    Dinesh

    Hi Dinesh,
    I have installed SAP on external harddisk.
    And it will work properly.
    But i think you need to increase your RAM.
    After installation, please keep in mind one thing.
    You will have to attach your external harddisk before your machine starts, because your OS will be in internal harddisk, so SAP and oracel services won't be able to run without external hard-disk.
    and in case you attach after system startup, please start all services.

  • Need advice for future design and hardware I should purchase now.

    I was wondering if someone could assist me in making a decision on where I should take the future design of my network. Currently the design has no redundancy and I've been told recently that my company has a bit of money to spend and that it needs to spend it within the next 2 weeks. I am fairly new to the company so haven't been able to really think about future redundant designs nor have I studied much about designing networks. There are about 200-300 people that may be using my network at once, all users aren't at the location in question but they may be asking for resources from our servers.
    I've included a basic design of the "core" of my network and would like any suggestions for creating redundancy in the future and also optimizing the way data travels to our servers. Do people generally have redundant Layer 3 switches for the core in small networks such as mine? I will be replacing the 2811 since it only has 100Mbps connections and was thinking, perhaps replace this with a Layer 3 switch with the plan to have another identical Layer 3 switch installed to offer redundancy in the future.
    Also, would it be a good idea to move the servers into a vlan on the core? Thanks for any advice on what I should be purchasing now with plans for redundancy being implemented over a year.  -Mark

    40k Can go pretty quick depending on the scope. Your server farm especially should be dual-homed capable of surviving link, hardware, routing, and software failure.
    It's going to be best practice your server farm be in it's logical subnet, so failover mechanism can be controlled routing protocols, as opposed to FHRP's such as HSRP/VRRP/GLBP. Especially since you adjust routing timers to sub-second convergence.
    Budget will be the primary limitation (as it always it) but ideally dual 6500's running VSS and FWSM would be the ideal way. Data centers should be designed with high availability in mind, hence the need to 2x devices.
    Depending on the size of the SAN/Virtual infrastructure Nexus might want to be considered but you will chew up 40k before you know it.
    Also make sure the server farm is scaled properly. Your server farms should be oversubscribed in a much higher ratio compared to your access layer.

  • Need advice for erasing disk/partition

    Hey everyone,
    I currently have a Mac Pro that is partitioned with both Lion and Snow Leopard. I'm trying to un-partition the computer and wipe it clean - thinking of updating to Mountain Lion but would like to stay with Snow Leopard for now if possible.
    I erased the Lion partition by using Disk Utility but now I'm wondering what the best way to clean the computer is.
    When I go into Disk Utility and go to "Erase" it won't let me select Snow Leopard. I went to Disk Utility Help and it says "To erase your computer’s startup disk, you must start up from another disk, such as a Mac OS X installation disc."
    This means that I need a hard copy of an OS installation disc before I can erase/clean Snow Leopard? Is it possible to buy the disc from Apple or are the OS systems only available for download through the app store now? Are they only selling Mountain Lion?
    Any tips or advice here is greatly appreciated!
    Thanks!

    What is wrong with your 10.6 Snow leopard installation that it needs to be "cleaned"? Macs generally do not need to be cleaned, as they do not accumulate filth.
    How did you get 10.6 snow Leopard onto your computer in the first place?
    What model mac Pro ?

  • Need help for displaying key and description in Dropdown (ABAP WEBDYNPRO)

    Hi Experts,
    I am using dropdown as a table field. For this dropdown I want to display the value as well as description.
    In ALV table when we create a dropdown dynamically in table field, there is a method SET_KEY_VISIBLE in class CL_SALV_WD_UIE_DROPDOWN_BY_KEY.
    But I think we cannot use similar method for normal dropdown field in table.
    Is there any way we can display both value and description in dropdown value set ?
    Please help.
    Regards,
    Anand

    Hi,
    I think there is no such option. You need to consider one variable type string and while populating the
    valueset fill this variable by concatenating the value and description and assign it the key and value
    pair of the valueset.
    DATA:
      lt_value_set_ctry      type table of wdr_context_attr_value, " Country/Service Location
      lv_str type string.
        loop at lit_country into ls_country.
          concatenate ls_country-value ls_country-text into lv_str separated by space.
          ls_value_set-value = lv_str.
          ls_value_set-text  = lv_str.
          append  ls_value_set to lt_value_set_ctry.
          clear ls_value_set.
        endloop.
          lr_node_info->set_attribute_value_set( name = 'COUNTRY'
                     value_set = lt_value_set_ctry ).
    Consider this lit_country is a text table for countries.
