New projects from old

Here's the assignment:
We have a RoboHelp project with about two dozen books (with
associated sub-books). Can some or all of these be turned into
merged projects?
Thanx!
Lon

Not that there's anything wrong with that...
The issue with merged projects that is addressed by Peter's
method is "external" links (cross links between projects). The
beauty is in having nothing in the master project but a redirect to
a child project that actually holds the root level "home page" and
any other topics at that level. That way, all "external" links use
the path "../otherfolder/externaltopic.htm."
This relative link will be done automatically, but not at
first. As long as you have all the child projects under the
\projects folder, your links will at first appear as absolute links
(C:\blah_blah). After you close the dialog, then double click the
link again, you'll find that RH has assigned a relative path.
Good luck,
Leon

Creating new projects from old ones without deleting the wrong audio files!

We did a piano & vocal recording session recently and recorded about a dozen songs. Voice audio files and midi (pianoteq) for piano. At the moment these are organised into three projects according to genre - classical, showtunes and jazz standards. I now want to get each song into its own separate project but while I need to avoid duplicating too many audio files, I'm also scared to death of deleting anything!
Can someone please walk me through how I do this? I THOUGHT I knew and then a dialogue box (thankfully!!) flashed up saying something like, "Are you sure you want to delete these files they are shared by other projects?"
I basically want to "save as" one of the large projects, rename it according to the song title and then delete the other songs from the Arrange. I thought I could then "select unused" in the Audio Bin and it would be cool because the original audio would be in the old (renamed) project . . . but I seem to have that wrong? Or I've missed a step?
Hopefully someone can shed some light!

Open the song. Cut the tracks at the appropriate places. Name the newly created regions with the correct song names. Select all the regions and then the command that turns the regions into new individual audio files. After the files are written, go into the audio bin and select unused. Delete unused. Save as (without resources) "Master Song". Then I'd delete all but the first pair of tracks from the arrangement. In the audio bin select unused again then delete. Logic will dump the unused parts out of the audio bin without deleting them from the drive. save as "First song" Re-open the master song and do this again with the second set of tracks.......

New Project with old footage stored in event library?

When I start a new movie, the footage from my last project is still saved in the event library for me to use. I don't want to have to click through every clip to delete it. How do I start a brand new movie from scratch? I had quite iMovie, opened it and went straight to File>New Project, etc. Am I doing something wrong? Thank you for your help.

I realized the difference between new EVENT and new PROJECT. With a new project, the old footage remains in the library. With a new event, you can start with a clean slate.

New Project From MS Powerpoint

Hi,
I've just installed and licensed Captivate 7. I am having problems using the New Project from MSPowerpoint or the Insert / Powerpoint Slide option for a Blank Project. I have tried this with both .ppt and .pptx files which I can open and save in Powerpoint 2007.
When I try to create a New Project from MSPowerpoint Captivate tells me it is parsing the file, then it converts the slides (only 2 slides in the presentation), and then it freezes, and does nothing and I have to close the application down from Task Manager. Creating a new project and then using the Insert / Powerpoint Slide option also freezes. I have tried this with more than one Powerpoint presentation. I have also tried this with 'Run the program as an Administrator' set.
I have also installed the 7.01 update, and uninstalled and reinstalled Captivate to check my installation.
Has anyone got any ideas as to how to get Captivate to import slides from Powerpoint?
Thanks for your help.

Refreshing/deleting the Preferences folder is not mentioned, but that recommendation can be found in a lot of threads in this forum. Clearing cache regularly is another good practice, not with the files you are actively working on (they provide means to recover a file, besides backup that is by default not checked in Preferences).
When importing PPT did you check High Fidelity option?

BUG: Advanced Actions duplicated when creating NEW PROJECTS FROM TEMPLATE using Adobe Captivate 8.

Need: CREATE NEW PROJECTS FROM TEMPLATE using Adobe Captivate 8.
Problem: NEW PROJECT (.cptx) duplicates the Advanced Actions originally configured within TEMPLATE FILE (.cpt.).
For example: Template file (.cptl) advanced action "_initializeModule" gets duplicated as "_initializeModule1", "_initializeModule2", "_initializeModule3" within NEW PROJECT. FYI, the original "_initializeModule" advanced action still appears.
MAJOR BUG, what the heck is going on?!?!!! Planning to deploy this template file to use for multiple courses with multiple users, this WILL cause epic confusion across the board.

Similar problem, think they are working on it as well: when dragging a shared action from an external library to a slide or object event, and that action is using a parameter that was already created for another shared action, there will be a new parameter created which really screws up the shared action contrary to this problem. Tip: for the moment do not drag shared actions from an external library immediately to an event, but drag them first to the Library: Reuse Shared Actions in other Projects - Captivate 7 vs. 8 - Captivate blog

How to transfer my certificate to this new account from old acount

how to transfer my certificate to this new account from old acount

You don't. Registration is a one time thing that you do the first time you install an application. Once registered it does not need to be done again.
You should see if yoiu can have the activations reset before you try installing on a new machine so that you still have the two activations that are available to you. If not, you should still have an activation available for use with the new installation.
To reset activations contact Adobe Support and ask them to reset your activations.... For the link below click the Still Need Help? option in the blue area at the bottom and choose the chat option...
Serial number and activation chat support (non-CC)

To get it working on the new machine you just install and activate using the serial number you should already have.

Migrate to new iMac from old iMac and am getting 'incompatible software' message.

Im trying to migrate to new iMac from old iMac and am getting 'incompatible software' message. I'm not sure what to do- can I revert back to snow leopard from mavericks?

Hi Mark,
If you install Mavericks, or in your case migrate from an old computer running Snow Leopard (or an earlier version of Mac OS X) to one using Mavericks, some of your software that was designed to run on older computers may not function in the new OS. See this article -
OS X: About the incompatible software folder
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3258
In particular -
If you see a message indicating that you can't use "this version" of an app, contact the software's vendor or visit their website to see if a later, compatible version of the app is available. If you purchased the software from the Mac App Store, use Software Update to see if an updated version is available there.
and
During installation, OS X moves known-incompatible software to a folder named "Incompatible Software" at the top level of the startup drive. If this folder is present on your Mac, see what applications are in it, then check for available updates. To obtain a newer version of an Apple app, check the Mac App Store, or visit the Apple Store website.
Regarding installing an older operating system on your new iMac, Apple does not support doing this, as described in this article -
Don't install a version of Mac OS X earlier than what came with your Mac
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2186
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Best,

Problem in moving project from Old Sol Man 3.1 to New Sol Man 4.0

Hi All,
I am trying to move a project from solution manager 3.1 version to a new solution manager 4.0 version. I followed the below steps:
1.Slected and transported the project using solar_project_admin tcode and created the transort requests in the old sol man version 3.1.
2.Copied the cofile and datafiles from old sol man and kept in trans directory of new Sol man 4.0 version at OS level.
3.Imported the requests into the new Sol Manager 4.0 successfully
4.When I tried to open the imported project it told me to run the "solman_log_comp_mgr program" to convert the project to the central logical components. I just did it and it went well.
I can see the project and do see the document types but no document names and getting all sorts of error messages when I tried to open these documents. Also I dont see the logical components under system landscape.
Before importing, I just have configured servers/hosts, databses and all the components of system landscapes in the new solution manager.
I request you to help me solve this issue. I also would like to know whether i followed proper procedures that i listed above? If not please suggest what procedures I should have follwed.
Thanks in advance.
Aravind Serikar

Hi Aravind,
to transport a project from 3.1 to 4.0 I would not use SOLAR_PROJECT_ADMIN to "migrate" a project. There for we developed SOLAR_MIGRATION there you can transport system landscape info, also you can transport projects. You should only transport system landscape info if in 4.0 SMSY is EMPTY. To transport projects you have only to specify your project and define a local folder. In this folder we store a few important information. Then all information will be collected in a batch job and automatically exported. Then you have to copy the data file and the cofile into the new trans folder. BUT do NOT forget the i-file. In the folder cofiles you will find a i-file, because we export knowledge warehouse content. This file is important, if you forget it you will get a return code 8. You do NOT have to add the files in the import buffer, we will do this automatically. To import the project, you have to call SOLAR_MIGRATION in SolMan 4.0 there you have to select import, then specify the folder with the few important information. We upload the info and start the import. That is it

Internal Order number is copied while cretaing new SC from Old PO

Hi,
We are on SRM 5.0. When i tried to create a new shopping cart through by copying the old shopping cart from 'Old Purchase Orders and templates' the Internal Order number is also being copied which is a problem.
I appreciate any help.
Thank you

Hi..
Thanks for the response. Yes we are using using internal order(IO) in account assignment.
This creates a problem, because the approver is unable to identify if the PR is one which is already approved that was rejected by someone else (so therefore doesn't need a new IO), or whether it's a brand new PR that needs a new IO.
So is there someway so that the cost assignment does NOT get copied onto the new PR? Any relevant BADI's that can be used ?
Thanks.

I dont think your requirement can be fulfilled through Standard, but yes you can copy the old PO, and just input the remaining quantity of old po by inputting it manually.

Iphoto albums to new mac from old

I have already moved my entire iphoto library to my new macpro from my old ibook. but for some reason none of the albums came with it. Is there a way to get the albums over to the new after I have already moved the library?
Thanks

How did you do the move? The correct way is to copy the entire iPhoto Library folder, as an entity, to the new computer. When iPhoto opens the library it should be in exactly the same condition as before you moved it. If you didn't do it this way and you still have the library on the ibook then I suggest you start over.
Was the ibook library also running iPhoto 6? If so, you could try copying the database file "Library6.iPhoto" from the old library into the new library on the macpro, allowing it to overwrite the existing file there. This will only work if the library structure is identical to the old library.
If the iPhoto library on the ibook was having problems before you copied it, then it's possible the database was already damaged. This would explain why it didn't copy over properly, even if you followed correct procedure. If that is the case, rebuild the library on the ibook. [Hold Option and Command as you launch iPhoto. Select the first 3 options in the dialog, then rebuild.] If the rebuild is successful and the library is in good shape, then copy the entire iPhoto Library folder to the macpro again.
Regards.

Migration to new IMAC from old IMAC with a Backup Drive

I purchased an new IMAC and have an old IMAC and have migrated all of my stuff from old to new, except I have a external backup drive on the old IMAC and did not migrate it. I thought that I would migrate by attaching it to the new but do not have the right cables. Can I connect the backup drive to the old with the firewire that I have and connect the old IMAC to the new one with the cables that I used, or do I have to buy the right connector to connect the backup to the new IMAC.
Thanks

I have the old ipod touch without the camera and i received a new one with camera as a gift how do I transfer eveything to new ipod from old?

I have the old ipod touch(without camera) and I received the new one (with camera) as a gift. How do I transfer everything from old one to new one?

Make one final USB sync with the old iPod. The sync includes a backup. Then connect the new iPod to the same computer/iTunes library and restore from the backup of the old iPOd. All the synced media like apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media is not included in the backup that iTunes makes. For how to restore see:
