New to the product - question about validating multiple fields as a group

I have a static form that I'm building from a word document. Part of that form requires a person to fill any 3 out 5 text fields.
Since it looks like scripts are applied on a field by field basis, is it possible to have a script that encompasses multiple fields?
Would any script need to be applied to each field in turn?
Assuming the answer to question 1 is a yes, how would you script it to require x number of fields out of a total of y to have some sort of content in order to validate?
I'm pretty familiar with JavaScript and am looking at the Scripting reference guides but was hoping for a helping hand to get me there quicker as I'm in a bit of a time crunch - doing 18 forms with validation and database connectivity by January 15 certainly qualifies in my book.
I would assume you'd do something like this but am unsure of the syntax...
Get values of each field
Set a valid counter variable for the number of fields with content
If field 1 is not empty, increment the valid counter
(rinse and repeat)
if the valid counter is less than 3 throw an error message
Many thanks in advance for any help offiered

1). Yes, scripting within Livecycle can be for a single field or even static text, images and other artifacts within the PDF. Really anything, within Adobe's reason, when it comes to scripting.
2). It depends on what you want to do. Things like field validations, calculations and other instances where fields are tied togther really dictate how the script runs.
3). Fields that have calculations or validations with them work in the same, I believe. So for example I have a PDF that I made that is an Excel-type sheet that contains a few hundred cells and every single one has some type of validation or calculation associated with it. I generally run the calculations/validations from the user inputting the data and then after that the script runs, but again, it really dpeneds on what you are doing and with what, so answering some of your questions are a bit difficult.
Javascrip/Formcalc are wonderful tools within PDF, but don't forget the Action Builder (Tools -Action Builder). It is a set of preloaded actions that are turn-key. Just select the cells that will have the action and select the result you want from the preloaded list of actions, using those actions can get you very far, and most of all; they are quick to implement without researching code. So for example, you could use the Action Builder to create an action that checks certain fields and if they are null to return a 1 value to a specific numericField (these could be hidden). Then have a "total" numericField (this would be your counter) that adds all of those fields with the 1 in it. Then create another Action Builder for that "total" numericField and if it is less than 3, display a message box that is a warning.

I have a question about using multiple ipads in our school. Each of our teachers have a iPad and AppleTV in their classroom. The issue is, with our classrooms so close in proximity to one another, is there a way to pair teacher

I have a question about using multiple ipads in our school. Each of our teachers have a iPad and AppleTV in their classroom. The issue is, with our classrooms so close in proximity to one another, is there a way to pair teacher #1 iPad to its AppleTV without effecting/projecting onto the adjacent teachers #2 classroom AppleTV?

Not as such.
Give the AppleTV units unique names and also enable Airplay password in settings with unique passwords for each teacher.

Question about using multiple iPods on the same PC

I've read the FAQs on this subject but I still have a couple of questions about multiple users with separate iPods using the same PC.
I want to use my family's desktop (A new Gateway with Vista, if it matters) for my new iPod Classic, but my father already has an iTunes account on there for his iPod. I know I can create a new user account on the PC and move iTunes to a shared folder so that we can share music, but will this second account be able to purchase music from the iTunes store or am I going to have to switch between Windows User accounts to make purchases and then move new songs into my separate iTunes account via the shared folder? Will it be its own separate iTunes account (separate user name, separate credit card used, etc.) or will it just be a second library that's dependant on the first?
I want to be able to have my own iTunes account, make my own purchases in it, and maybe occasionally share tv shows or something with my father.
If this can't be done, would I be better off just creating new playlists for our two iPods from the same library, or creating a second library on my Father's account?
Also, if I want to access things I've purchased from iTunes on this desktop in iTunes on my notebook, will I be able to?
I hope that made sense.
Sorry if these seem like silly questions. This will be my first iPod as I'm really excited about the 160gig and want to know if these things are possible.
Thanks in advance for any help

Hi, Wes.
Congratulations on your new iPod Classic and Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
For no particular reason, let's answer your last question first ...
... if I want to access things I've purchased from iTunes on this desktop in iTunes on my notebook, will I be able to?
The iTunes Store operates on a one download per purchase policy so you will have to copy the purchases from one computer to the other and make sure that you authorize the laptop to play the songs.
As to your first question ...
... will this second account be able to purchase music from the iTunes store or am I going to have to switch between Windows User accounts to make purchases ...
Whatever XP User Account you are logged in to doesn't really matter. What's important is which Apple Account you sign in to ... yours or your Dad's or - if you had my Apple ID and password - The Mimico Kid's for that matter. You can sign in to any Apple Account on any XP User Account. Or any computer for that matter.
Where the XP User Account comes into play is that it will determine where on your computer the purchases are downloaded. Files will be sent to the iTunes Music folder as specified in the iTunes Edit menu > Preferences > Advanced tab > General sub-tab. Default settings will have a different location for each User Account - C:\Documents and Settings\ user name \My Documents\My Music\iTunes - but if you've read this article in the Apple Knowledge Base, you will know you can change the location of the iTunes Music folder in each XP Account to a common location such as C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Documents\My Music\iTunes.
Post back if all this hasn't been as clear as mud and you need anything clarified.

New to Logic 9, Questions about mixing with summing box.

Hello - glad to be aboard. I just picked up Logic9 last week.. I have been on DP...well since it was P (I guess 20yrs,) Been contemplating the move for quite some time, but as I too, pay the bills with music, I've got to stay on DP until I and Logic are full integrated into my system. With that being said, I am DP by day- getting things done, and when the day is done, Its Logic time. I'm in the studio on forums, watching a bunch of videos that I bought, taking notes creating "Key Command" Flash cards - just kidding on that one) - I am really looking forward to making the switch. - I was going to order DP6, as well, but I think there's no need for that... this might be the right move.
On to my question....
My setup in the nutshell - Mac2.8. with MOTU PCIe,, using MOTU audio interfaces, 2x2408mkIII's, 1x24i/o, and 1x308) - I am using 2 x Rosetta 800''s as well, and from my DAW mix out through them into a Dangerous 2BUS summing box - which means - obviously, that I group my tracks in my daw and send out various outputs (i.e, Output 1-2 might be vox, 3-4 for gtrs, 5-6 for drums, etc.) - I then run to the 2Bus, out into a TK Audio BC1 buss compressor, routed back into the Apogee, and into the DAW - where I bring the stereo mix back in. - This means (2) things
1. I have no need for a Master Fader
2. I don't bounce
There are a couple of things that are confusing me - It seems that in Logic, when i create a track, Logic is "kind enough" to think ahead for me, and not only gives me the audio track, but also another fader, I guess which acts like an overall channel strip or fader for that output. It also assigns a master fader for me as well. In DP, when i create an audio track - I get just that - an audio track. Its routing assignment is indicated by the inputs and outputs I select. If I want to route it out to inputs 1-2, then I choose that output - but nothing else pops up. If I had the need to assign a Master Fader - then I would key command to add a Master Fader. While, in the scheme of things its not that difficult to just "delete" these tracks - I am sure during the course of normal work flow, it will get old. I tried deleting the master fader (on a test project I was working on) and saving as a template. But when I opened up the template and started assigning audio tracks, the ol' master fader came back. To me, it seems like fader duplication that I really don't need to see. - I just want to see my audio tracks - and route them to their appropriate outputs from the channel strip.
I assume the automatic assigning of a master fader - would be helpful if I wasnt mixing "outside" the box, and would be required if I "bounced" my final mixes down from within Logic. - And I also would assume that these Aux channels, or whatever that are assigned when i create audio tracks, are nothing more than overall "volume: controls for that output.
Another annoying issue related to this - I have named all of my ins and outs withing the MOTU PCI interface - I then when into the I/O assignment page in Logic and requested that Logic use the names provided by the driver (my names) - it does.... In parenthesis after their's - but outputs 1-2 - keep reverting to the name "Stereo Out".... frustrating.
Again - While I will miss alot of things from DP....I actually am seeing quite a few benefits over DP and the videos.. while not as useful as hands on work... are training me to see the screens, workflow, etc - and they are very helpful. When I do go into mess around - I am much farther ahead.. and at least know kind of where I am.
But I'm really trying to minimize the impact of the switch.... so perhaps some of the long-time guys can asssit. I havent seen much on the various forums about diverting from logic's norm out into summing boxes....etc.
Thanks very much - sorry about the long winded message - But I wanted to explain it the best I could.

orcasound

Hey Orcasound, welcome to the forum, and also welcome to Logic.
Nice setup BTW, especially the Dangerous 2BUS into the BC1 coming back to the Rosetta 800"s, that gonna sound sweet mate.
OK Q1: The master fader for output 1-2 is always gonna be there, I've never found a way of getting rid of it, you can fortunately set up the mixer so that it won't show though. At the top of the mix window is a heap of boxes highlighted in blue, all you need to do is deselect the master and the output as per this screen shot:
Save this in your template and you'll never have to see those pesky faders again.
Q2: Same thing really, logic will always show 1-2 output as stereo out. Which is annoying, even if you manually name them from the I/O labels window it's always stereo, everything else if fine apart from 1-2. To be honest I've just learned to live with it.
Glad you made the switch, I find DP to be bloated and a bit tired nowadays.

Question: Which unit and which Welche Einheit und welches formula symbol label the term (A1 to A5 will be randomly shown) [multiple answers are possible]?
Answers: (B, C 1 to 5) are shown as Mulitple Choice
Assessment:
Question A1, correct Answer B,C 1 and 4
Question A2, correct Answer B,C 2 and 5
Question A3, correct Answer B,C 3
Question A4, correct Answer B,C 1 and 4
Question A5, correct Answer B,C 2 and 5
If the answer is wrong a text and a graphic has to be shown.
If not everything is possible here are the questions I am struggling with:
1) How do I script to show a graphic once the wrong caption is shown?
2) How can I script to find out which Multiple Choice item is selected (a number or alike, so that I can script to find out if a certain number combined with a certain term is combined?
3) How can I script something random (if random(4) == 1 then myVar="heat capacity")?
4) How do I combine an advanced action to an answer?
Thanks a lot
MR_TD

Hello again,
Certainly not yet an answer to all your questions, have been musing a little bit already but had to do some work for college too.
You could use the default Multiple Choice question slide, with possibility for more than one answer. Showing a correct and a incorrect caption is not a problem. But you also want to show a graphic after that, thus after the user clicks on the slide or enters Yes (normal way to continue). Can the graphic be on another slide? Than you could insert this slide immediately after the question slide and program that when the answer is correct the user jumps over this slide. If you report to a LMS, you could report everything, so that the answers will be visible on the LMS-report. This would be the easiest way. I do not see any solution (for the moment) to have the questions 'randomized'. Shuffling is possible on some question slides, but you want to shuffle the question slides themselves. Perhaps: create a pool with the question slides and get questions out of that pool, they will then automatically be unpredictible.
The other more complex way: create your own question slides with text captions, click boxes, advanced actions that populate some user variables. Do see possibilites, except again for the randomizing, the shuffling of the questions slides. Showing first a caption, then a graphic on the slide, based on the correct/incorrect answers is certainly possible. Storing the exact answers in user variables would be possible too: what do you exactly want to do with this 'knowledge'?
Perhaps I'll get some fresh ideas tomorrow,

Why am I getting this App Store message for the new OS: The product distribution file could not be verified. It may be damaged or was not signed.

Why am I getting this App Store message:
The product distribution file could not be verified. It may be damaged or was not signed.

I had the same problem. Spoke to Apple support who directed me to Itunes support. Frustrating to say the least. Some have said remove virus barrier. I did and still nothing. Some posts have said to delete App store. DON'T DO IT.. App store is tuff to get back. This did work for me. Go to Finder, then go, pick go to folder, type in, /var/folder, and delete (send to trash). There were 2 folders I had to delete, KX & XX, and as soon as I sent them to the trash they returned but I was able to download & intall Mountain Lion and working well. Good luck..

A question about editing ALV fields

Hello Expert,
In my project, we need to read data from DB and display in the ALV. In the ALV output, we should be able to edit the records, and after user clicks the "Save" button in the applicaiton toolbar, the program should be able to save the changed data into DB.
Currently, I can display the data in ALV and all fields are editable. After I change some data and click "Save", the program will go into subroutine 'F_ALV_USER_COMMAND', but the data in the internal table GT_OUTTAB is not changed.
I generate the ALV output by the following calling:
call function 'REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY'
      exporting
        i_callback_program = wf_pgm
        is_layout          = gs_layout
        it_fieldcat        = gt_fieldcat[]
        i_callback_pf_status_set     = 'F_PF_STATUS_SET'
        i_callback_user_command = 'F_ALV_USER_COMMAND'
        is_variant         = g_variant
      tables
        t_outtab           = gt_outtab
      exceptions
        program_error      = 1
        others             = 2.
In the subroutine 'F_PF_STATUS_SET', I call a GUI Status defined by myself.
But if I call as below
call function 'REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY'
      exporting
        i_callback_program = wf_pgm
        is_layout          = gs_layout
        it_fieldcat        = gt_fieldcat[]
       i_callback_pf_status_set     = 'F_PF_STATUS_SET'
        i_callback_user_command = 'F_ALV_USER_COMMAND'
        is_variant         = g_variant
      tables
        t_outtab           = gt_outtab
      exceptions
        program_error      = 1
        others             = 2.
GT_OUTTAB is changed accordingly after clicking the "Save".
Can any expert tell me why Internal table is not changed in the case I use user-defined GUI Status?
Thanks & Regards, Johnny
Edited by: Yongbo Wu on Jun 10, 2011 10:51 AM

Hi Yongbo;
Unfortunately REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY has update problem.
REUSE_ALV_LIST_DISPLAY FM is making automatic update/change itab.
You can change REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY FM with REUSE_ALV_LIST_DISPLAY FM.
Best Regards.
call function 'REUSE_ALV_LIST_DISPLAY' "'REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY'

Question about cropping multiple tracks at the same time

Ok, here is the situation. My band jams reguarly, and I am recording 8 tracks concurrently.... each instrument gets their own mic/input.... typical band fare.
The recording will last a solid 45-60 minutes before we break. In the meantime, there is plenty of downtime, and multiple songs.
After the jam, I like to cut out the crap, bad takes, etc....
I do this by editing the waveform of each track individually, selecting the 'good region'.... copying the section ... and pasting into a new track... I repeat this 8 times... once for each track....
I then mute the original 8 tracks, move all the clips to timecode 0 and export to disk....
Needless to say, this is very, very time consuming, and I would like some input about a better way to do this.
Is it possible to select the same region across multiple tracks and copy/paste them into several new tracks? Or is it possible to define the 'playable region' of a larger region so that when I export, I am only exporting the region I am interested in?
Ultimately, I want to produce an exported .m4a for each 'good take' which is nothing more than a subset of the larger 60 minute take....

Have you tried selecting all tracks, then split at the beginning and ending of the "good take" then copy and paste it into a new GB file?

New to apple - basic questions about personalizing the dock

Hi -
Just got my MBP this week, and haven't used an apple before.
I am curious how I can add and remove icons to/from the dock in a "permanent" fashion so that the format stays constant after I restart the computer. Basically, I'm never (or rarely) going to use some of the standard programs on the dock, and would much rather have my high-use programs (word, for instance) readily accessable on the dock.
Thanks!

Welcome to Apple!
To add or remove items from the dock is very simple. You can simply drag items that are currently onto your dock either to your desktop or to the trash to get rid of them. (This won't get rid of the program or application itself, so don't worry!) Then, to add items, you can click and drag them from your applications folder (or whatever other folder they are in) to the spot on your dock you want them. You can also rearrange items on your dock by clicking and dragging.
I hope this helps, and have fun personalizing!

Question about validating xml against schema

Hi,
I am new to JAXP. I try to validating a xml against a schema. I wrote following code:
SAXParserFactory spf = SAXParserFactory.newInstance();
spf.setNamespace(true);
spf.setValidating(true);
SAXParser sp = spf.newSAXParser();
sp.setProperty("http://java.sun.com/xml/properties/jaxp/schemaLanguage",
"http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema");
sp.setProperty("http://java.sun.com/xml/properties/jaxp/schemaSource",
"mySchema.xsd") ;
sp.parse(<XML Document>, <ContentHandler);
but when compile, it has error: can't resolve ""http://java.sun.com/xml/properties/jaxp/schemaLanguage", and
"http://java.sun.com/xml/properties/jaxp/schemaSource".
It seems it didn't support above two property.
I saw some code in forum is:
fact.setFeature("http://xml.org/sax/features/validation", true);
fact.setFeature("http://apache.org/xml/features/validation/schema",true);
fact.setFeature("http://apache.org/xml/features/validation/schema-full-checking", true);
SAXParser sp = fact.newSAXParser();
sp.setProperty("http://apache.org/xml/properties/schema/external-noNamespaceSchemaLocation",schemas);
Why sun tutorial use property:http://java.sun.com/xml/properties/jaxp/schemaLanguage
and someone use:http://apache.org/xml/properties/schema/external-noNamespaceSchemaLocation
where to get information about setting properties for SAXParserFactory?
Thanks

In the past, ColdFusion's XML validation mechanism seems to have had issues with schemas that contain imports, e.g., http://forums.adobe.com/message/155906. Have these issues still not been resolved?
Do you not think that perhaps you're answering your own question here?
I don't see an issue about this on the bug tracker. It might be an idea if you can get a simple, stand-alone repro case together and raise an issue (and post the reference back here and against that other thread so people know to vote for it). If you post the repro case here too, it would be helpful.

I have a question about airplay multiple speakers in Mountain lion

I seem to be unable to use the "multiple speakers" feature in iTunes now that I've upgraded to Mountain Lion. Before, I was able to stream music from my iTunes to two airport expresses throughout the house, simultaneoulsy with the computer's speakers. Now it seems I can't.
When I select "multiple speakers" and click on the appropriate airport express, I get a dialog box that says "Connecting to Airport Express", which gives up after about 45 seconds of trying to connect.
Here are the things I've tried:
1. In System Preferences, I've changed the audio output from computer to the airport express, which successfully sent the audio to the airport express. But the system preferences audio tab just lets you select a single output destination, not multiple. So I know that the speaker works, and that OSX still "likes" it.
2. There has been mention on various boards that my computer no longer has the system requirements for this feature. I want to know if that that's true. (Full description of system below)
3. I've used the trial of airfoil, which works beautifully, exactly what I want it to do. But it costs $30, and I'd rather the pretty new operating system I just bought would work!
4. Another clue might be from the airport utility app. It claims that my airport expresses are no longer supported by airport utility 6.1, and that I should downgrade to airport utility 5.6 to manage those expresses. Unfortunately, mountain lion is not compatible with airport utility 5.6, so that's a dead end. I'm not even sure that the answer lies with the airport utility app, because the system can still stream to the expresses, just one at a time.
Any thoughts?

Question about syncing multiple ipods to one iTunes library

I have an iPod touch (2nd gen Ver 3.1.3) that I sync to my computer. My daughter recently got an iPod touch (2nd gen Ver 4.0) that was under her father's account. I reset her iPod in order to put it under my iTunes store account. Next I synced her iPod with my computer adding only the items she wanted (games mostly and a few songs).
iTunes didn't seem to have a problem with our devices being different versions. So far so good. I have only synced her device once and haven't synced mine since. We have both purchased apps straight to our iPods and they aren't backed up.
My questions are:
1. Before syncing, will I have to go check everything I want every time in iTunes?
2. We use some of the same apps and games. Will the game data and/or app data be written by another players data? Can you tell I'm really just concerned about my TapFish score?
I'm holding off on syncing until I know the answers.

well, it would be better to keep everything checked in your library and instead create separate playlists for each mobile device.

you can use as many mobile devices as you want with a single iTunes library. iTunes treats each device separately.
i have two Nano's, an iPod Touch, and an iPad syncing with the same library.
