Need help using applescript to export a playlist

I'm trying to use applescript to get iTunes to export the current playlist as XML. I know this can be done via the File ->Export menu but I'd like to script this.

Hi William,
Sorry about that! Ok I just typed "xml" into the "search scripts" box in the top of the page. Take a look at the first couple of entries...or I linked the first two here:

I need helping using iAds in my application.

I need helping using iAds in my application. I currently am not using any storyboards. I am using Sprite builder for my UI.
I attatched an image ot show all the different file name I have.
Everyone is being used & they all work fully.
The "iAdViewController.h & .m" files are just example codes I looked up and was messing with so that my iAd can work.

I wouldn't even be able to use the Mathscript node in an executable?
What I am trying to do is make a user configurable data stream.
They tell me how many bytes are in the stream and what parameters they
want to be put in to it. Currently I have to make vi's that are
called dynamicaly to make the parameters.   Then recompile
the code and send it to them. This is somewhat of how the config
file is set up so I know how to make the data.
Data_Type foo
Bytes 30
parameter_name
function
   byte#          format
sync
foo_sync
29               int
time
foo_time
1,2,3,4    double
If I can't use MathScript to allow the user to make there own functions
is there another way that I might be able to do this so I do not have
to recompile the code atleast? Were I might just be able to make
the new function and send that to them.
Any Idea would be great.

Re: Beginner needs help using a array of class objects, and quick

Dear Cynthiaw,
I just read your Beginner needs help using a array of class objects, and quick of Dec 7, 2006 9:25 PM . I really like your nice example.
I also want to put a question on the forum and display the source code of my classe in a pretty way as you did : with colors, indentation, ... But how ? In html, I assume. How did you generate the html code of your three classes ? By help of your IDE ? NetBeans ? References ?
I already posted my question with six source code classes ... in text mode --> Awful : See "Polymorphism did you say ?"
Is there a way to discard and replace a post (with html source code) in the Sun forum ?
Thanks for your help.

Need help using dbms_scheduler to submit an immediate job on the database

Hi. I need help using dbms_scheduler to submit an immediate job on the database. Essentially I want to issue a one-time call to an Oracle Stored Procedure - this procedure will then send an email. I've never used dbms_scheduler before, but here's what I have so far.
So my Program is a stored database procedure named 'TTMS.dropperVacationConflict_Notify', but my problem is that I need to pass 3 parameter values to this job each time I run it. This is what I can't figure out. The procedure expects an 'Id' as number(5), begin_dt as a date, and end_dt as a date.
How do I pass these values when I run my job? Can anyone help?
begin
    dbms_scheduler.create_program(program_name=> 'PROG_DROPVACCONFLICTS_NOTIFY',
     program_type=> 'STORED_PROCEDURE',
     program_action=> 'TTMS.dropperVacationConflict_Notify',
     number_of_arguments => 3,
     enabled=>true,
     comments=> 'Procedure to notify PCM of a Dropper Vacation Conflict. Pass in Dropper Id, Begin_dt, and End_dt');
end;
begin
    dbms_scheduler.create_schedule
    (schedule_name=> 'INTERVAL_EVERY5_MINUTES',
     start_date=> trunc(sysdate)+18/24,
     repeat_interval => 'freq=MINUTELY;interval=5',
     end_date => null
     comments=> 'Runtime: Every day all 5 minutes, forever'
end;
begin
    dbms_scheduler.create_job
    (job_name => 'JOB_DROPVACCONFLICTS_NOTIFY',
     program_name => 'PROG_DROPVACCONFLICTS_NOTIFY',
     schedule_name => 'INTERVAL_EVERY5_MINUTES',
     enabled => true,
     auto_drop => true,
     comments => 'Job to notify PCM of Dropper Vacation Conflicts'
end;
/And I use this to execute the job as needed...
begin
    dbms_scheduler.run_job('JOB_DROPVACCONFLICTS_NOTIFY',true);

Need help using WEB module in Lightroom 2 for .mac/mobile me accounts

Hello,
I need help in finding the Server path information for Lightroom 2. I am trying to use the Web module of Lightroom and build a website and instead of going through another hosting service, I want to use my Mobile ME account, can't I do that?
I have the user name and password obviously but what is the server path, protocol, path?
Help please!
Thanks
Ray

For those Mac Users using iWeb, MobileMe, and Lightroom 2, here are step-by-step instructions on how to create a web gallery in Lightroom, upload the gallery to MobileMe, and finally, how to link the uploaded files to the wesite you created in iWeb.
1. In the Lightroom Library module, create a collection of photos you want to display in your web gallery. For illustration purposes, we will call your collection Sunsets. Once created, it will be listed under Collections in the left panel of Lightroom.
2. Switch to the Lightroom Web module and select the Sunsets collection (from the panel on the left of the screen.)
3. Chose whichever template you like (from the list of Templates in the left panel).
4. Fine tune the appearance of the gallery using the controls in the right hand panel of Lightroom 2.
5. When you are satisfied with the gallery’s appearance, use your keyboard to type Command-S. That will save your template settings (give it a unique name when saving).
6. Open up Finder on your Mac. Inside your username folder, create a new folder… I'll call it Web Files. (You can choose any name you like, and locate the file anywhere on your Mac HD.) You have just created the folder username/Web Files.
7. Back in the Lightroom Web module, chose Export, at the bottom of the right panel, and export your gallery to the folder you just made (e.g. export to username/Web Files). By doing so, you will have created /username/Web Files/Sunsets.
8. Once again open Finder on your Mac. Go to /username/Web Files/Sunsets and you will see 3 files in the Sunsets folder: bin, index.html, and resources.
9. Open a second Finder window and in it, click on your iDisk icon. You will soon see all of the files on your iDisk.
10. In iDisk, click on the folder called /Web. You will now see the /Sites folder inside the /Web folder. I.e., /Web/Sites.
11. Drag the Sunsets file from your Mac HD to the /Sites folder on your iDisk. E.g, drag Sunsets from /username/Web Files/Sunsets on your Mac HD to the /Sites folder in iDisk /Web/Sites. The Sunsets folder (and the three files it contains) will now upload to your iDisk on MobileMe.
12. Open iWeb on your Mac. Add a new page to your website. Call it “Galleries,” or anything you like. (You can also use an existing page if you wish.)
13. On that “Galleries” web page (or on an existing web page), create a picture icon, or a word, or a symbol, or anything else that you will activate as a hyperlink to your iDisk web files - specifically, you will link it to the Sunsets folder you just uploaded to iDisk.
14. Activate the hyperlink in iWeb’s Inspector. In the URL box, type:
http://web.me.com/username/Sunsets (Don’t forget to substitute your name for “username” and the name of your gallery for “Sunsets.”)
15. Save your website in iWeb, and then publish your site.
You will NOT see your gallery in iWeb – you will see only the link to the gallery that you uploaded to iDisk.. To view your gallery, either make hyperlinks active, using the Inspector in iWeb and click on he link to the gallery, or visit your website on the internet. If you want to edit your gallery, you will have to do that in Lightroom… then repeat steps 7 – 11. You cannot edit your gallery in iWeb, but you can use iWeb to change the appearance of the link to your gallery, or to change it’s location within your website.

Green frames when using AppleScript to export from QT

Not sure if this is a QuickTime issue, h.264 issue, or an AppleScript issue, but i thought I'd start here since I know the least about AppleScript and have some clues to the problem.
I'm creating an Automator workflow that requires a run AppleScript action. My plan is to use applescript to have QuickTime Pro 7.6.6 export an image sequence from a QuickTime movie in h.264, using a QuickTime settings file I've already exported. The script points to the settings file and and exports the sequence to the output folder I've specified. Im looking to export one frame per second. Running the script works well and I'm almost getting the result I want, except that each frame that is exported is entirely green.
Interestingly, when I run the exact same process manually, using the exact same settings, the export works fine, and the frames are correct. Additionally, exporting via AppleScript brings up a different status bar than when exporting manually, which leads me to believe that AppleScript is the culprit. Perhaps it's running some sort of outdated process? The AppleScript status bar comes down from the top middle of the video frame, while exporting manually, brings up a floating status bar. They look decidedly different.
Has anyone run into this problem? Can possibly shed light on it? Possible AppleScript work around? This only seems to effect h.264 videos. If I run the same AppleScript on a prores file, the images export correctly.

Including the applescript in question could be helpful!
tell application "QuickTime Player 7"
export front document as image sequence using settings "Macintosh HD:Users:grato:Documents:SYNC:Sync Assets:settings:Sync_QTexport_setting.qtes" to "Macintosh HD:Users:grato:Documents:SYNC:Sync Assets:Assets:temp:Sync-"

Need help creating applescript to perform automator actions.

Hi,
I am looking for help with an applescript the will tell automator to execute the steps of a workflow. I'm aware that I coud just run a workflow or even tell applescript to instruct automator to run the workflow, however, I am looking to make this part of a larger workflow and this method would save the hassel of having to create a new workflow outside of applescript each time.
I would like automator to "get folder contents" then "extract pdf text" to a "new file" with the "same name as original file" in the "same location as original" and "save as txt". This doesnt seem to difficult to me, however, I have limited knowledge of scripting at this time.
I appreciate anyones help...

Hi,
I'd say on a difficulty scale of 1-10, what you're asking for is a seven.
Automator is scriptable, but when you run a basic AppleScript like
tell application "Automator" to make new workflow
you immediately get taken to the dialog asking you to choose a type for your document (app, calendar plugin etc). So that's going to stop the AppleScript dead in its tracks. It might be possible to move on with GUI scripting (using AppleScript to click the buttons) but it would be a ferocious cludge.
I think the best approach would be to manually create an empty action as a starting point. You would then need an AppleScript that would duplicate the workflow file (so you've got a fresh one to duplicate next time), open it in Automator, add the appropriate actions, set the settings etc.
It all sounds a bit too complicated

Need help using Apple Remote Desktop for remote family members

I am new to ARD and need help. I know there are solutions to do what I am trying to do through LogMeIn and Teamviewer - but I have LogMein right now and the free edtition is going away and I think Teamviewer will do the same sooner or later. I have remote desktop but hadnt used it, so I thought it would be a good thing to implement so I wont have to worry about paying fees for services like LogMein or teamviewer down the road. Long story short I need to be able to remote help friends and family members with their macs and using applications, mostly through screen sharing and control and file sharing. All of the folks id like to help have home ( not business style ) internet service whith DHCP and non-static IP's. I have set this up for myselft to test it and I can be at work and search my homes IP address and I can see all the macs with ARD on them and it all works perfectly. I have a mac mini running Lion Server so the ports are forwarded to that server at my home - this is the only think I can think of that is making my home work and my friends not. But when I try to help my friends and family after I type in their IP and it scans it sees their computer - ( it shows a grayed out icon and their IP ) but nothing else. I cannot control or screen share. It says it cannot verify. I helped my friends put the ARD client ( most up to date client ) on their macs as well. I was hoping that using ARD would mean not haivng to set up my friends and family's routers for port fowarding and all those details. Is there anything I can do using ARD to be able to type in my friends IP address have it scan and then see all their MACS at their home and pick the one that needs attention/ help, without port forwarding or heavy set up ? I guess the root question here is how or what is best way to set up ARD to be used to help people remotley when they are all home users as well, no port forwarding, no static-IP, that kinda thing.
Any help is appreciated - Im trying to use ARD and not a 3rd party app since im afraid even if they are free now they wont stay that way. Please let me know throughts and sugesstions ;p)

I poked around a bit and the file seems to be:
/Library/Application Support/Macromedia/mms.cfg
I'd like to get some confirmation from Adobe that this is the correct file to push, though (it seems like it as it only contains this):
AutoUpdateDisable=0
SilentAutoUpdateEnable=1

Need help using 1440x1080 footage in a SD 4:3 timeline

Hi Folks,
I need to use some AVCHD footage in a normal SD 4:3 timeline destined for a dvd. I'm trying to figure out the best workflow. The client provided a usb hard drive with some files extracted from a Sony hdr-sr5. I know the first problem is ingesting these files. I'm on a PPC G5 so I know using the L&T window isn't an option. I have experimented with using Toast to convert the files to ProRes 422 and that seems to work to some degree. I'm probably not doing it correctly because the footage shows up in FCP looking somewhat squished down and with letterbox bars above and below. In Toast the files indicate that they are h.264 1440x1080. When viewing in the Toast Video Player they get 'expanded' to 1920x1080. So I'm not sure why the footage gets letterboxed when converted to ProRes. So I guess that's the first part of the problem.
The second issue is that I just need to use the center crop of the image in a SD timeline. It's just talking head stuff so there's no problem cropping down. But I'm just not sure I understand the correct procedure for doing that once I have the footage ingested in the proper format.
I could definitely use some guidance here as the whole AVCHD thing is new to me.
Thanks,
Chris

Can't help with your first question, but create an sd 4:3 timeline. Drop your hd footage into it. It will come in letterboxed. In the motion tab, remove any distortion, scale and position to your liking

Need Help using WRT54GL as Wireless Bridge for Xbox

Hi.
I need help configuring my WRT54GL as a wireless bridge for my xbox.
I have a Billion BiPAC 7404VGO currently in service as my main router/modem. i.e. I have my ADSL connection and PC connected to this. I also connect to this with a laptop.
I have an original xbox at the other end of the house (cat5 NOT an option).
Basically I want to connect my xbox to the rest of network. I have a WRT54GL I can use for this. I just dont know how to set it up.
The WRT54GL has Firmware Version: v4.30.7 (out of the box).
My Wireless network is using WPA.
I have a VPN setup through to work via the Billion.
The idea is to stream media from my PC to the xbox (media centre).
Any help would be HUGELY appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

A wireless router is a device which requires its own wired internet connection. A wireless router is not a wireless access point like the Linksys WAPs. A wireless router does not connect wireless to other wireless routers/APs with standard Linksys firmware. With Linksys firmware you need a WAP54G or similar. The WAPs support wireless bridging and repeater mode.
If you already have a WRT54GL then you have to install a 3rd party firmware which adds wireless bridging capabilities. Read the wikipedia article on "WRT54G" for information about which WRT models support 3rd party firmware and an overview of projects and links.
Remember, however, that you may brick your router if you install a 3rd party firmware incorrectly and you probably void the warranty if you install 3rd party firmware (it is even possible to find out after you restore the original Linksys firmware if you don't clear the NVRAM before).

My brain does not follow along like it used to, and I need someone with some patience to help me go through some Adobe proucts to that I may learn them, and yes.. I can learn them... if someone will help me. The tutorials are exceedingly difficult/impossible for me to follow and make my head want to come from together.
I have the following products that I need help with please:
CS5 Premium
Photoshop Elements 2.0
Creative Suite 5
Visual Communicator 3
Acrobat 9.0 pro
I am not rich.. I am on a fixed income but am willing to pay whatever I can if you will help me.

First, you have my thanks and respect. I wish I had time to dedicate to helping you.
I do try to treat my own customers in my business as I would want to be treated. It's amazing the number of people who come back after I answer their queries with comments like "Wow, it's nice to get a real person to answer, and quickly too!"

I need help using Premier Pro CS5 to create a short time-lapse video . . .

Hello I am new to Prremier Pro and need help creating a short time-lapse video. I have a Sony CyberShot TSC-70 and a Canon ZR930 to capture images and video but none do time-lapse automatically (I think). I also have Premier Elements 9 and Photoshop CS5 if needed.
I am late completely this project and need help. Suggestions urgently needed.
Thanks,
billy

Nice to know Elements has that function! I don't have elements, and did a one hour into 15 seconds timelapse in Premiere by importing my one hour clip into the timeline, then using the time tool within the effects panel to speed the file up by 1000% (maximum allowable in a timeline, apparently...) Then I nested that sped up sequence within a new sequence, and did it again... I think I had to do it twice, but I got a nice 15 second sunset timelapse out of a one-hour shoot by using that route.

Need help using TD1Hdl in C++

So I've generated a .dll to use in VC++. After almost 3 full days of searching forums and messing with my code I really need to get something done. The variables I'm trying to use are declared as follows:
typedef struct {
long dimSize;
LStrHandle elt[1];
} TD1;
typedef TD1 **TD1Hdl;
The function I need to call is:
void __cdecl getFileList(TD1Hdl *SpecResults);
According to LabVIEW SpecResults is an output variable that I should be able to use. It is an array of file names retrieved from a database.
I've gotten my code to compile many different ways but no matter what I do I can't get to dimSize or elt.
Here's the closest I've gotten:
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
TD1 *tdptr = new TD1;//(TD1 *)malloc(sizeof(long) + sizeof(LStrHandle));
TD1Hdl tdhdl = &tdptr;
SetupWO();
getFileList(&tdhdl);
return 0;
SetupWO() starts the main vi. getFileList() is the subvi that i want to get the array from.
Debugging with watches shows nothing in tdptr->dimSize or tdptr->elt[0].
Any help you can provide is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Hi Drew!
First of all thanks for getting back to me. After almost a full week of debugging this, I think I've finally found a way to access what I need to. I've separated the code into classes now so it looks a little different but I'll post the important stuff below.
class wrapper
public:
void run();
private:
void LStrToCStr(LStrHandle lstr, char *cStrBuff, long buffLen);
TD1 tdptr;
TD1Hdl tdhdl;
void wrapper::run()
tdhdl = NULL;
SetupWO();
getFileList(&tdhdl);
tdptr.dimSize = (*tdhdl)->dimSize;
for(int i = 0; i < tdptr.dimSize; i++)
tdptr.elt[i] = (*tdhdl)->elt[i];
char atpString[256];
LStrToCStr(tdptr.elt[i], atpString, 256);
printf(atpString);
printf("\n");
void wrapper::LStrToCStr(LStrHandle lstr, char* cStrBuff, long buffLen)
int32 len = LHStrLen(lstr);
if(len >= buffLen)
len = buffLen - 1;
memcpy(cStrBuff, LHStrBuf(lstr), len);
cStrBuff[len] = 0;
This seems to be working. I figured it out probably half an hour before I went home on Friday so I haven't had a whole lot of time to mess around with it yet. The only problem I'm having is that the list I want should have 6 elements in it, but I'm only getting the first 2 when I go through the for loop before it errors. I'm sure this must be because the array was declared: LStrHandle elt[1];
I'm thinking I need to use the NumericArrayResize() function? I haven't looked into it much yet, but I plan on checking it out today. However in the mean time if you can provide any more advice that would be great!
Thanks again!

Hello –
Something that you need to consider is the fact that when you are sending an image over Data Socket, it is not really the image what is being transferred but a pointer to the image. Please take a look into this Knowledgebase.
Also, you might find this Example Program useful.
Hope this helps.
