New user need some help.

I am a brand new user, have a video by someone else, how do open the file to edit? I would like to explode the video to make additions and deletions?

Hello, Russell70. You made a wrong turn somewhere, I'm afraid. This is the forum for requesting enhancements in future versions of Photoshop Elements, Adobe's still photo editing program. I think you want the Premiere Elements forum, which is here:

A very new user needs some help and advice....

Hi,
I have just taken the bold leap into Indesign and this is the first day of my 30 day trial.
I need help and advice from you good poeple...please.
I have been successfully creating A5 booklets (folded A4) using MS Word and printing to a desktop printer. MS Word sorted out my page order for me at printing time so the correct pages were put together.
I have been reading as much information as I could find but I am still unable to do the same in Indesign.
I'm looking forward to using the advanced layout features and having control over what I do but, I need to work out this basic step before I go any further.
I hope what I have explained makes sense.
Regards
John

So presumably you create a new document, A5 portrait, facing pages. Make sure your ducument page count is a multiple of 4.
Create, type, tweak, ponder, edit, smile, save.
To create you booklet using InDesign, from the file menu select Print Booklet.
You will probably need to jump back and forth from the Print Settings button adjusting Paper Size, Orientation, Color, and from the Print Booklet tab set for 2-up Saddle Stitch.
Much has been posted on this topic, these are the basics, Print Booklet is not the best module Adobe ever wrote, IMO

New user, need some help with an audio problem

Hey, I'm a total newbie to logic express and there is something I can't quite figure out, and if someone could just walk me through it I would be very greatful.
I'm using an M-Audio fast track USB recording interface to record my guitar on to the computer, and I have pretty much no idea how to record or hear my guitar.

Look at the Oracle analytic functions ... specifically LAG and LEAD.
You will find the docs at http://tahiti.oracle.com

E1200 new user- need some expert tips

Hi guys, I just bought a new e1200 model a few hours ago to replace my old WRT54G version 3.0 , My house is not that big less than 400 sq meters and one floor only. In my old router, when I go to my garden, the internet speed is very slow and thats when I thought that I needed a new upgrade , so I got the e1200, would have wanted a more expensive version like the e2000 + models and higher but this is the only one available here in our city.
The current location of my router is thesame as before , its near my monitor here in the table , are there any tips to like increase it's signal ?
This is from support:
Yes, and for you to optimize its N-functionality, you need to set your Network Mode to N-only, Channel Width to 40MHz and the Security Mode to WPA2 Personal. But you need to be sure that all of your devices' cards are using N.
I have tried changing the channel to 6 , changing the network mode to n, or security mode to wpa2 personal caused some problems with my brothers laptop, so i had ot switch back to wpa personal only. What else do I need to tweak here ?
(Mod Note: Edited for guideline compliance.)

Well you can try the following combination of steps:
A] With the help of Cisco Connect Software (if at all you have installed the router with the help of this software)
1] Open the software and go to the option which says "Router Settings"
2] Then click on the option which says "Advanced Settings" which will take you to the router's configuration page.
3] Then go to the Wireless tab, keep network mode as mixed,
For Channel Settings of 2.4 GHz you can make Channel Width to 20 MHz only and Channel to 1, 6, 9, 11..
B] If you haven't installed Cisco Connect then you can log on to the router's user interface using it's default IP address in the browser which is 192.168.1.1 and type in 'admin' as the password leaving the username field blank. This will take you to the router's web interface and then follow steps as mentioned above to make the changes.
Secondly avoid using any other wireless devices like cordless phones, microwave oven etc nearer to the router. Update the drivers for the wireless card of the wireless computer. Then check the wireless connection status.

New user needs workflow help..

Hi,
I have been using iMovie for years and love the product. I have done 3 documentary style films (60 - 90 minute range) using it. Call me crazy, but I did everything I needed to do in it quickly and easily.
Upon seeing the future of imovie with its latest release, I decided that instead of getting the new imovie, which I don't like, I would take the opportunity to upgrade to Final Cut Express instead. So I am transitioning my workflow from imovie to FCE.
Here's my current question: I have started to shoot footage for my latest film. Previously, in imovie.. I would then take all that footage and just import EVERYTHING into imovie. Since I shoot about 90 minutes of footage each week, I would just create a different imovie file, corresponding to each tape I used in the camera, so I'd have different files: week 1, week 2, etc. This allowed for ALL my footage to be in the computer in a way I could find things easily and not leave anything on the camera. Then I would edit down each week, once it was done I'd export that "sequence" and when all the sequences were done, I'd pull all the pieces into one new imovie file to do the final assembly, sound work, etc.
So what do you all recommend for switching over to FCE? In looking through the literature, it appears FCE stores all the video elements for all projects together, rather than in my weekly individual files. TO me, that means I have one file reference over 30 hours of raw video footage and that just makes me uneasy. So... do I do what I have always done and just import everything into FCE and then edit afterwards, or do I do a "first round" of editing when I import so that I am only capturing what I think I will use? What will give me the least amount of headaches come mid-October when I start to plow through all this footage and put the film together?

Steve,
You can do it just about the same way in FCE, although there are some subtle differences & siginificantly greater editing capabilities in FCE.
You will have to create an FCE project in order to capture video from your camera. However, once captured, the resulting clips (which are actually QuickTime files on your hard drive) can be used & reused in any FCE project - they are not locked to the FCE project in which you captured them.
So, for example, you could capture each tape individually same as you always have (giving each tape a unique name - that's important). Each capture in FCE will give you a separate file on your hard drive. Then, instead of having a different iMovie file for each tape, you will have a different file (captured clip, in FCE terminology) on your hard drive for each tape.
You can then create a new FCE project (if you want to) and import any/all of the captured clips, edit them together as you desire, and export the resulting sequence.
In an FCE project, however, you have additional capabilities beyond iMovie to organize your clips - because in the FCE Browser you can create Bins & Folders with their own names and then import & organize your clips into them. You also have the capability to create multiple sequences in a single FCE project, so you wouldn't necessarily have to go through the extra steps & aggravation of exporting intermediate sequences only to reimport them for further editing. Nested sequences in FCE are a very powerful way of assembling a finished project from intermediate sequences & clips.
I do suggest that you get a copy of Tom Wolsky's excellent book, Final Cut Express HD 3.5 Editing Workshop to help you get started with FCE.

I Am New Here/Need Some Help

Hello, I am new here. I really do not know if there are any rules here and how to find my way around here.
I have been learning Java since November of last year on my own since my school does not provide any classes. I mostly make applet games for fun.
Is there any parts of the forums here that are specifically for games and applets? I could not find any, but read in another post that there was one. He did not provide a link.
I was searching the Internet on Graphics2D to see how I can make only a part of my images appear and how to repeat tiles I make for games. When I make a game, I put the map together in MS Paint by copying and pasting tiles. I was told that I could actually repeat it in a way where I could arrange the tiles by code without having to put it together in MS Paint.
I also learned that it is better to load one image instead of a bunch so I want to put my animation as one image and only have a clip of it show.
I was curious if it possible to make things transparent, too? like if I wanted a ghost in my game.
I want to be a pro at making games with Java in a couple of years from now. I have made a couple of 2D graphical games already, but they had a lot of mistakes with them such as no game loop, the stuff I mentioned above, heavily using AWT, move by key instead of mouse, coding all into one class (messy in the end), stuff like that. So I am hoping by talking with other Java programmers here, I will get better at making games.
Thanks for helping in advance.

It's on the main forums list.
I was searching the Internet on Graphics2D to see how
I can make only a part of my images appear and how to
repeat tiles I make for games. When I make a game, I
put the map together in MS Paint by copying and
pasting tiles. I was told that I could actually
repeat it in a way where I could arrange the tiles by
code without having to put it together in MS Paint. Yes you can, but AFAIK there's no API given in core Java to do this for you. I'll bet someone has written one though -- try Google. Also MIDP 2.0 (for J2ME) has an API to do stuff like that. I've used it; it's pretty good.
I also learned that it is better to load one image
instead of a bunch so I want to put my animation as
one image and only have a clip of it show. Yeah, you can load an image and then use a Graphics.drawImage method to select only a subset of that image.
I imagine that there may also be images that create image objects out of clips of larger images, but if so I don't know what they'd be. Check the docs.
I was curious if it possible to make things
transparent, too? like if I wanted a ghost in my
game.Yeah. Create an image with an alpha channel. MS Paint probably can't do that, but Photoshop can easily, and so can GIMP, which is a free, open-source, Photoshop-like image editor.
So you can create a PNG image with certain parts either fully or partially transparent, then you could load that image into Java easily, and use it (or subsections of it) as sprites in a game.
Try the games forum. There's also stuff like this: http://community.java.net/projects/topic/Games

New user, need major help...

I just got a new Ipod shuffle for Christmas and having a little trouble...I have many mp3's on my winamp, and really wanted to transfer them to the shuffle so i could listen to them while i work out or travel...i right clicked on the song and it transferred, but i can't get them to play on the ipod....basicaly, how do i transfer mp3's that i currently have onto this and have them play?...is the shuffle for itunes only?...thank you for your help, i appreciate it...

Add the songs to the iTunes library, and then send them to the iPod shuffle from there. The iPod uses a folder structure different from other MP3 players, and requires software specifically designed for that structure for storage of playable music.

I'm new and need some help.

Hello Everyone,
I bought my Lenovo 3000 last August and the keyboard letters started rubbing off and when I called they said it send it in. I sent it in and all of a sudden I had a liquid spill. I only had the computer less than three months. I never even spilled liquid on the laptop. Then all of a sudden my computer was returned with a new keyboard. Nothing else was said about the liquid spill.
Fastforward. My computer started acting weird in April 08 and I called to get help. For two months they had me downloading things from their site saying it would work. I finally got someone to help me then they said my warrenty was up, I had to send all my information in again and then I sent in my computer. When I sent it in, I didn't hear anything for a week and then I received a call and a massage saying I had liquid spill. I never wasted water on the computer or any other liquid. They told me it was going to be 800.00 plus change to fix and said they wasn't doing anything to the computer without me paying up front. This was just about the amount I paid for the laptop. Since they sent the laptop back, it doesn't work. Now my keyboard doesn't work and I don't know what to do. My warrenty has now expired on 8/16. Does anyone know where I can get my laptop repaired?

Thank you for responding. This is my first computer/laptop. I didn't know I could have requested that. I can't send it back now b/c my warrenty is up. Does anyone know of a good repair place then or is this a lost cause?

Hi,new user needs some tech info on bbm

hi,ive a problem we belive my daughters friend has stolen her phone and has started to delete her friends off the bbm,now one of my kids mates has told her that her friend has sent him a new request in her name but the pin is my daughters number,i want to get the phone back so if i report it she will probably throw it away,is there anyway i can get hold of any messages sent from a bbm pin to confirm its being used?

I don't know a way of doing this. If the phone in question had blackberry protect, you could track it.
It sounds like you know who it is from the bbm request described below. Can you go to their house and demand it back?

New convert needs some help, please.

I just converted to MacBook with Intel Core Duo and I need to run a few programs that only run on the MS OS.
Anyone with a Quick Start on loading the MS OS onto the Mac would be appreciated along with any headsups to look out for while installing or post installation. Any feedback would be great as well. XP versions suggestions?
Thanks in advance.

Macbook Mac OS X (10.4.7)

Welcome.
You have 2 options : Apple's own Boot Camp OR Parallels Desktop.
Boot camp - free download. You need to partion your hard drive - very easy, just follow the instructions.
With Boot camp, you are either in Windows OR OS X. (restart required when you switch OSs)
http://www.apple.com/macosx/bootcamp/
Parallels - 80 bucks (15 day free trial) You do not need to partion your hard drive
With Parallels you boot up windows within OS X
http://www.parallels.com/en/products/desktop/
I run Parallels - and it has been flawless.
You will want alot of RAM (I have 2 Gig, and both OSs run fast)

New User - Need Music HELP!!!!!

How do I store the music on my phone if it isn't already? I don't want to eat up my data each month. I only have 2gs of it and I run, so I play music - a lot!
I have come to find out that the music is NOT stored on my phone and is therefore using the cloud drive to play music. So I am now receiving warnings about my data usage.
How can I download the music to my actual phone?
HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is easy. Connect the LG G2 via usb cable to your laptop/desktop. Next you will note the computer recognizes the device and assigns a drive letter to it in Windows Explorer Could be Drive E, F, G and so on.
If it is showing open the music folder on your computer, find the music in the itunes music folder and you can either select one file at at time or select all and then click "COPY" do not choose cut!
Then look for the device drive letter for the phone. Open the folder and you will find the MUSIC folder, double click the music folder to open it ion the phone, then anywhere in the folder right click and select paste. The music wuill now transfer over to your device and keep the original files in your computer.
You then after all the music is copied over simply unplug the usb cable from your computer.
It really is easy. once you do it once.
Good Luck

Need some help with putting a folder in users directoryI recomend using System.getProperty( "user.home" ) not a hard-coded value.
This will use the users home folder ( C:\My Documents ) on Win9X (I guess), C:\Documents and Settings\<current user> on Win2K +, and ~ on Unix-a-likes.

What does a new non-DE user need? | Help for a Wiki page

Hey Archers,
I'm using Arch with the Compiz Standalone Window Manager and I need some help for a project.
It turns out (who knew) that computers need a lot more to run smoothly than just a desktop and applications. You need network managers, gtk themes and much much more. Now, Desktop Environments such as GNOME and KDE provide a lot of these programs built-in, good for them, but I'm looking to build my system as dependency-free as I can and the big DE's don't really provide that. Especially GNOME just ropes me in whenever I want to use the tiniest piece of it (darn you gnome-keyring).
So I come to you fora, with a quest for information. I want to compile an overview of essential and useful applications with minimal dependencies that allow a CompizIndy user to build his system freely. And if I get enough information, I want to turn it into its own page for the Wiki so it becomes easier to get started with a birds-eye view of what you need to flesh out your system (not exclusively for CompizIndy btw). So please help me!
What applications/daemons/tools should a new system install? I'm not asking which ones are the best or worst or your favorites, just which kinds do you need --that aren't covered in the install guide--?
For example it's advisable to get:
Panel/dock
desktop manager
network manager
compositing manager
a tool for managing removable devices (ntfs-3g etc)
a packer/unpacker
a screensaver
power management
alt-F2 runcommand
custom keybindings
a user switch/logout manager
a volume manager
etc.
So what do you recommend? What do you need to get up and going?
Hoping to hear from you guys and girls,
Matthias
PS: if I'm doubling up on anything, please let me know and save me effort and embarassment ^_^

There are many threads on this, although individual ones asking for "the best app to do XXX". You could try searching those. Also Search for the LnF Awards threads. you might find a few ideas there. We also have wiki pages for light-weight applications which might be useful
Panel/dock none
desktop manager none
network manager netcfg
compositing manager none or xcompmgr (for basic compositing)
a tool for managing removable devices (ntfs-3g etc) udiskie or udev rules or devmon
a packer/unpacker coreutils eg - tar, bzip etc with an alias called "ex" in .aliases
a screensaver none
power management ???
alt-F2 runcommand gmrun
custom keybindings xbindkeys
a user switch/logout manager none
a volume manager see udiskie....
BTW, if this is for you, then simply install Arch and use a non DE based WM --- eventually you will figure out what you are missing

HT204291 When am watching live news on air play it shows only for one minute 30 seconds I need some help?

When am watching live news on air play it only shows for one minute 30 seconds ,, I need some help?

First of all, Hunt--thanks for responding!
"First, where are you playing the MPEG-2, that you see that jitter?"
On both a MacBook Pro, an Acer laptop and my Mac Tower. I would love to think that it is a problem with the playback system, and that if I merely send the file off to the duplicator they won't have the same problem. Maybe that is the case...I don't know if I have a choice rather than sending it off to see. But it happens in the same spots, in the same way, on all three of the players so I'm a little reluctant to have faith.
"Another thing that can cause jitter in an MPEG-2 is the Bit-Rate - higher the Bit-Rate, the better the quality, but the larger the file. For a DVD, one is limited by the total Bit-Rate (both Audio & Video), but with longer prodcutions, some users choose too low a Bit-Rate. If this is the issue, one would need to go back to the original Project and do a new Export/Share."
Of course, but in the case there is no more 'original project.' It is gone like the wind, stolen along with his computer and backups.
I think I am stuck using one of two files as my master: a DVD he burned where I only see the stutter/vibration/jitter once, or the mpeg2 file where I see it three times. Hopefully, the duplication house can rip if off of one of them and not see the jitter. I know that in audio, my personal filed, you can do a lot to enhance already existing sound--EQ, compression, tape saturation emulation software, etc. I guess I'm hoping there is some kind of analog to the video world that address jitter after a source has been printed--if indeed the source has been printed to be jittery.
Thanks,
Doug
