Need Very Basic Instructions, Please!!

Please excuse my total ignorance, take pity. I am having trouble with apparently basic Reader usage. I have scoured Help and still have questions. Is there a Reader for Dummies type info. I have missed??

You can also view the help files which are the manuals for the program.
It is not Reader for Dummies, since Adobe thinks more of the people who
use their software. You can really find the information quite helpful.

  • Need very basic tutorial for actionscript3 and Flash Builder?

    I'm VERY new to coding, only 17 wishing to persure computer science when i'm older.
    My issue is on adobe CC website all the tutorials require intermediate experience and I have none, however, i'm very passionate and think i will thrive with this new hobby.
    Anyone know any tutorials on where you start with very basic basics in these applications?
    Thanks.

    Ask in the forums for those programs... the people who use the programs will know more than here

  • Need Some Basic Directions, Please

    Hi,
    New to Nokia and this Ovi Suite. Have 2 brand new 6350's and ready to pull my hair out over the lack of directions for the basics I need to know. I've been all over the Nokia/Ovi site, reading the FAQs and watching the videos and browsing this forum but not finding what I'm looking for.
    The directions supplied have you install the software then run it. During that first use of the program you are prompted to choose your connection method (USB for me), then to connect the USB cable to the computer first and then the phone to the cable. Then the phone asks you what method you want to use and to choose the 'PC Suite" method.Then you wait while the program and Windows itself (I am using Win Xp Home) do their things and you get all the pop-ups and info balloons re new hardware detected and drivers and modems, etc.. until finally you get a Windows balloon notifacation showing "ready to use..." and the program shows your phone there in the lower left and all seems well.
    OK - but then what????
    What  is the proper way to end your session?
    Do you unplug the phone from the cable and then close the program, or do you close the program first then disconnect the cable from the phone?
    Are you supposed to leave the program running in the System Tray or can you click 'Exit" from there to make it close totally so it's not sucking up your resources while not actually in use?
    Then next time you want to connect the phone to pc and use the program ... ? Do you connect the phone to the cable first then open the program, or do you open the program first and wait for it to prompt you to connect a phone?
    Do you have to screw around each use with connecting/disconnecting the USB cable to the computer each time, or can you leave that end plugged in 24/7? If left plugged in 24/7 does rebooting the computer mess it up?
    When ending a session and unplugging the phone from its end of the cable,  are you supposed to use the 'Safely Remove Hardware" icon in the Windows System Tray? Is Windows supposed to make a "bing-bong' sound every time you connect or disconnect the phone from the USB cable, or only the very first time when it detects it as new hardware?
    I've been having nothing but problems since I got the phones and cable and program (downloaded it form the Nokia website) on Friday and I think that a big part of the problem is that I am not properly starting/ending things as far as the physical connection  and THAT is what is not explained anywhere.
    Please, please, please, someone, anyone, I really need step-by-step directions on the proper sequence for starting and ending sessions on a regular basis. I may want to connect my phone to PC several times a day but there are no directions on the Nokia/Ovi website for how to do anything past that first initial connection/ setup.

    Hey,
    These r just my observations only which may give u an idea
    Connectivity :- Since i dont hav Nokia 6350, i will try 2 give very generic answer
    Once u want to connect ur device with Nokia Ovi Suite using USB, u may get few options(It may differs from one model to other)
    PC Suite or Nokia mode
    Mass storage or data transfer
    Image transfer
    Media transfer etc.,
    If u r using PC Suite mode which is very common to use for connecting ur device with Nokia Ovi Suite, no need to worry about disconnecting ur session by removing ur usb using Safely remove hardware option.  U can unplug once ur session is over with Nokia Ovi Suite
    But if u r trying to connect ur device using Mass storage or data transfer mode, ur device will be recongnised by ur pc as a memory stick or pen drive.  People wll select this mode if they want 2 transfer huge files to/from PC and phone.  Once ur operations are over(copying files, transferring files etc), to end this Mass storage or data transfer session, u hav 2 make sure that ur device will be removed using Safely remove your hardware method, this is because if u r using in Mass storage/data transfer mode, w/o using safely remove hardware method if u remove ur device from pc, chances are high some of ur data may lost or it may be corrupted etc., so its mandotary to use safely remove your hardware, if u r conencting ur device with pc using Data transfer or mass storage option.
    It is advisable once ur session is done with Nokia Ovi Suite and ur pc, u close ur nokia ovi suite exit it from task bar.  u can unplug ur device from Nokia Ovi Suite(PC) once ur session is over.
    Hope its hlps

  • A very basic query, Please help.

    Hi all,
    I am very new to java and need your help in getting rid of this error. Please help.
    I have written two java files. packageTest.java and callPackageTest.java. Following is the code:
    // packageTest.java
    package aaa.bbb.ccc;
    public class packageTest
         public packageTest()
              System.out.println("This is from inside package test constructor");
         public static void main(String[] args)
              packageTest obj1 = new packageTest();
              System.out.println("Hello World!");
    //callPackageTest.java
    import aaa.bbb.ccc.*; // there is a star at the end. Seems to get removed by the forum every time.
    public class callPackageTest
         public static void main(String[] args)
              packageTest obj1 = new packageTest();
              System.out.println("Hello World!");
    Now when I compile packageTest.java with the following command:
    javac -d . packageTest.java
    I get correct class file created in correct directory, i.e. aaa/bbb/ccc/packageTest.class.
    But now when I try to compile the java file callPackageTest.java with the following command:
    javac -cp . callPackageTest.java
    I get the following error message:
    class file contains wrong class.
    Please remove or make sure it appears in the correct subdirectory of the classpath
    I also observed that when I put the complete class name in the import statement in the file callPackageTest.java ( import aaa.bbb.ccc.packageTest; ) then there is no error. But I expect the same to be done when I write import aaa.bbb.ccc. * ( an star at the end)
    Where is the mistake ? Please help.
    Thanks in advance.

  • Need very basic help with calendar - I am such a beginner!!!

    OK, I apologize in advance if this is a very silly question. But I'm new to all this stuff and really have no clue as to what I'm doing.
    I just got a brand new iPhone. It's great! I am using the calendar feature that came with the phone. But I can't figure out how to make it "talk" to my husband's calendar. He uses Microsoft Outlook. I've skimmed through lots of articles about Microsoft Exchange... but I don't have any Microsoft programs. I am a stay at home mother, and have been out of the technology loop for a while. It looks like I need a Microsoft Exchange account? I can't figure out how to get Microsoft Exchange, and if it's going to cost a fortune.
    I'm not even sure where to find which software is on my phone! There is no "about this phone" button that I can find. It's brand new, I think it was 3S and is 16GB if that helps.
    Can someone please save me from myself?
    Thanks!

    You could have the TC join your existing wireless network as a client, or you can can connect the Time Capsule's WAN port to the modem/router.
    In both cases the TC's "connection sharing" should be set to "Off (Bridge Mode)".
    If the TC "joins" the wireless network you can only back up over your wireless connection, so the second option is preferable.

  • Is there a way that safari can remember passwords?  I'm pretty uncool so I will need real simple instructions, please

    I can't seem to get safari to remember passwords.  I'm not too cool so I need some pretty basic help.  Thanks

    From your Safari menu bar (top of your screen) click Safari then from the drop down menu click Preferences.
    Select the Autofill tab.
    Make sure User names and passwords is selected.
    If you are having problems with specific sites where Safari won't "remember" a password, open the Keychain Access app.
    That's located in /Applications/Utilities
    Select Passwords on the left. Type in the name of the website where Safari isn't storing the password then right or control click that keychain then click Delete.
    Go back to Safari, go to the website, login with your user name and password. You should be prompted to save that data to a new keychain. Click Yes.
    Also, your profile indicates you are running v10.5.7. If that is correct, you need to update your system software including Safari.
    Click your Apple menu icon top left in your screen. From the drop down menu click:  Software Update...
    Restart your Mac after the updates are installed.

  • Considering the switch to AIR Dev. Need some basic info please.

    Hi, I've been developing applications for stand alone, offline touch screen kiosks using Flash and Multidiminsional Media's "Zinc". For various reasons, I'd like to move away from Zinc and go "All Adobe".
    Here's mainly what I was using Zinc for.
    Reading and writing to a local, MDB (MS Access) database file
    launching local MPG2 and WMV video files
    scheduling automatic system shutdowns/restarts
    Printing to a local printer without a Windows diolog popping up
    Based on what I've learned so far, here on the quesitons I have based on the numbered list above:
    AIR can read/write to mySQL Lite. However, what about these senerios:
    The "Wilderness and Game Commission" from some state has an enormus database of all their state's flora an fauna. I ask them to export it in "mySQL Lite" format. Will I be able to use AIR to read this database? Are there other requirements for AIR's implementation of mySQL Lite?
    Suppose we have a "Registration" app on a kiosk that collects addresses and emails from users. Now we have this address/email database file written by my AIR app inside of the storage directory. What can I do with this file? With Zinc+MDB file, I needed only to hand this file over to someone with MS Acces skills to do whatever needs to be done with the data. MS Access won't open the file made by the AIR app. What are my options?
    AIR works great with MP4 (H.264) files. However, I could use very old/inexpensive hardware to run MPG2 files in Zinc (which uses directx to open an instance of Windows Media Player, sans WMP interface.) Per my testing, these same machines will not run a similar quality MP4 video. Am I overlooking another AIR option?
    Can AIR do this? Maybe with launching a BAT file?
    We often have a thermal printer in our kiosks. Zinc provided a way to print something without the pesky Windows print dialog. Does AIR provide a similar solution?
    Thanks for any information addressing any of these requirements.

I ask them to export it in "mySQL Lite" format. Will I be able to use AIR to read this database? Are there other requirements for AIR's implementation of mySQL Lite?
    The database engine that's built into AIR is actually "SQLite" (http://sqlite.org/) not "mySQL Lite". It has nothing to do with MySQL, and I haven't found an easy way to export data in SQL between different databases.
    The best way I've found for batch exporting/importing data using AIR is to export the data in some text format such as CSV, tab-delimited, or XML, then writing code to import that data into the AIR app.
    Suppose we have a "Registration" app on a kiosk that collects addresses and emails from users. Now we have this address/email database file written by my AIR app inside of the storage directory. What can I do with this file? With Zinc+MDB file, I needed only to hand this file over to someone with MS Acces skills to do whatever needs to be done with the data. MS Access won't open the file made by the AIR app. What are my options?
    SQLite is a fairly popular database library/engine but in the majority of cases it is used as an embedded database -- in other words, it's used internally by an application rather than as a file that's shared among users. For instance, Firefox uses SQLite behind the scenes for bookmarks, history, etc.; Adobe Lightroom uses SQLite behind the scenes for it's image catalogs; and so forth. Not that you can't use a SQLite database as the "file format" for your application, and share those db files between users of your application. That's one of the intended use cases of the database for AIR, although in fact I don't know of any case where someone's actually done that.
    Some developers have written tools for administering SQLite databases and for viewing/editing data in them. For instance, my personal preferred tool for creating/managing AIR SQLite databases is "Lita":
    http://www.dehats.com/drupal/?q=node/58
    However, Lita is not nearly the same as Access, in that Access provides not only the database engine but also a scaled down app development platform, including forms, reports, VB code, etc. As far as I know nobody's created anything that complex for SQLite databases (AIR-specific or otherwise).
    So I guess it depends a lot on what "do whatever needs to be done with the data" means. If you want a tool that people can use to open a SQLite database file created in AIR, that has some sort of report-builder functionality ... as far as I know that doesn't exist. The exception would be if the person creating the reports knows SQL, in which case they could use Lita or another tool such as my own "Run!" AIR SQLite query runner tool:
    http://probertson.com/projects/run-air-sqlite-query-testing-tool/
    But of course there could be a SQLite-based Access-like application out there that I don't know about.
    AIR works great with MP4 (H.264) files. However, I could use very old/inexpensive hardware to run MPG2 files in Zinc (which uses directx to open an instance of Windows Media Player, sans WMP interface.) Per my testing, these same machines will not run a similar quality MP4 video. Am I overlooking another AIR option?
    AIR can use any of the video formats supported in Flash Player. In addition to H.264, it also supports FLV video, including On2 VP6 and Sorenson Spark encoded video.
    Can AIR do this? Maybe with launching a BAT file?
    It sounds like part of this question got cut off. However, I can say that an AIR app can't launch a BAT file (or any other executable), if that answers your question.
    We often have a thermal printer in our kiosks. Zinc provided a way to print something without the pesky Windows print dialog. Does AIR provide a similar solution?
    No.

  • Help needed (very basic I think!)

    Hello. I wonder if anyone can help me. I have tried downloading a couple of podcasts from Itunes for the first time. I can download them onto my Itunes, but then I can't move them from there to my own Ipod. No idea what I'm doing wrong but I do hope it's a basic thing. Thanks to anyone for their time and help.

    Hello. Thank you for your help. I did all that you said and it downloaded one podcast from my library to my own ipod, but then I got carried away and tried to download another podcast from itunes & now I can't get that one onto my ipod! I made sure "Manually manage music and videos" was not checked - which did something weird to my ipod....but I still can't download other podcasts....But thank you very much for the help.

  • Need very basic tutorial on transparency

    A bit of a novice on the topic of transparency so could use a
    link to a basic tutorial. Specifically, I'm working on a Fireworks
    graphic that will eventually end up on a site. The content is a
    table with text. The color of the content is white and the
    background on the site is black. I intend the background on the
    image to be transparent.
    When converting the png file to a gif I have played with the
    options including index and alpha transparency and noticed the
    matte feature.
    This is the area of tutoring I could use (i.e. getting a
    crisper transition between the image and the background). I'm also
    curious how the anti-aliasing settings in FW relate.
    Thanks

    The matte feature is precisely what gets the crisper
    transition. With a GIF,
    it's absolutely imperative. See some examples here:

  • Should I download and install the latest version of Adobe Flash to use with Lion?  My need for Flash is very basic: Google Maps, YouTube, and content on certain websites.  Thanks for any help you are able to provide.

    Should I download and install the latest version of Adobe Flash to use with Lion?  My need for Flash is very basic: Google Maps, YouTube, and content on certain websites.  Thanks for any help you are able to provide.

    Thanks for the speedy reply.  I have read so many comments about Flash being incompatible with Lion I was wondering whether to download it or not.  So many sites on the Web still require flash, however, you almost don't have a choice but to download it even if it is incompatible.  I gather a better version of Flash will be available for Lion soon.  Again, thanks for the help.  I will download the latest version of Flash.
