Newbie, help getting started...?

Hello everyone. I am doing my best to learn indesign, and have been watching tutorials etc. The problem I am running into is that I haven't been able to figure out how to import a large amount of text, about 50 pages. When I try to "place" the text by selecting a word document that has the text, the text only appears on the first page of my indesign document, and the rest of the pages in my document are blank. I'm stuck here at this stage. Any suggestions?

When you place the file, shift+click the first page of the document and the rest of the Word text will flow through the document creating pages as needed.

I haven't used an Apple computer for years. I need help getting started

I just bought a mac mini after 20 years using a PC. I need help getting started. Any beginning manuals out there? Thanks.

Welcome back. Do not overlook the Finder and individual application Help menu support. The links provided above are great starter references. With tongue in cheek, they also may not be as current as the OS X release on your mini, so expect some differences.
Here are a litany of keyboard short-cuts, last updated in June 2012, that may prove selectively beneficial.
For actions like copy(c), paste(v), cut(x), print(p), and select-all(a), substitute the command key instead of control key.
If you right click on a file, this menu will seem familiar. Press the option key and notice the menu changes. If you copy a file(s) from this menu, change to the destination and then press option with the right button menu to see copy file(s) changed to move file(s).
To quickly view a file's contents, left click on the file icon, then press the space bar.
The native file format for OS X is PDF. Thus, when you choose to print, you also have the option to save as PDF with web links preserved.
Enjoy your mini.

Need help getting started - I am a newbie and am royally confused

I have Crystal Reports XI and VB.Net 2005 with CR functionality built in. I created reports directly in CRXI and now need to be able to use them in .Net.
Here is where I get lost. When I created my RPT file it had me connect to a database (Access 2002) and then add a table and fields. It works great except now that I am porting to my .Net app the database it needs to connect to will always be changing (dynamic). The table and field names will always be the same. It is just the file name that changes, based on user inputs.
So are there any tutorials, literature, help that anyone can point me to so I can get on with my steep learning curve? I started programming in VB.net and developing CR's just a short time ago and would appreciate a 'dumbed' down explanation so I can get a handle on this.
Thanks for any help or advice offered.
Regards
TMA

FPGA for CAN, DI, AI help getting started

I am a new user to LabView.
I am trying to program the FPGA on a 9144 Ethercat chassis with modules 9423 (Digital input), 9201 (Analog input), 9853 (CAN). 9144 is connected to a cRIO-9024. There are more modules but if I can figure these out, the others should be almost the same.
I have tried to copy the code in the following examples but not all the referenced VI's are on my computer or there is problems with the code that I don't know how to fix
http://zone.ni.com/devzone/cda/tut/p/id/6628
http://zone.ni.com/devzone/cda/epd/p/id/5473
I am able to monitor the digital input and analog input using the real-time VI's, but that is pretty simple.
Normally, I would just pound away at it for a while until I got something that worked, except there are some deadlines that have to be met.
I need to be able to read and write CAN (this is to control a motor). The digital input needs to measure the frequency (Hz) of the incoming signal (count edges). Analog input I would assume would be the easiest as it is just reading a voltage. I realize that the only thing that really needs to run on the FPGA is the CAN. I believe (and hoping) that it is possible to have all the data input come through the FPGA so that the Real-Time VI's only deal with the usable values like Hz and then equate that to RPM for example. I am only looking to extract data at a rate of 1Hz.
If anyone could help me out with some basic code to get me started, I would appreciate it.

This FPGA VI has controls and indicators in it. It can only
run on the FPGA targets that support Interactive Front Panel Communication
(e.g. cRIO-9024) so that the host computer displays the FPGA VI front panel
window and the FPGA target executes the FPGA VI block diagram. Please refer to
LabVIEW Help (FPGA Module) for more information about the Interactive Front
Panel Communication.
However, support of Interactive Front Panel Communications
varies by FPGA target – NI 9144 is one of the targets that doesn’t support it. With
NI 9144, please use User-defined Variables to communicate between the host and
the NI 9144 FPGA target, and then your FPGA VI automatically runs when you
compile and download the FPGA VI to NI 9144 instead of clicking the Run button.
Here is a document about the data transferring between the FPGA and the host. Section User-Defined I/O Variables for Custom FPGA I/O Data describes how to use User-defined Variables.

This question was posted in response to the following article: http://helpx.adobe.com/business-catalyst/using/getting-started-business-catalyst.html

Hi,
Welcome to Business Catalyst.
From the sounds of your requirement it looks very possible to acheive what you are after with a combination of perhaps APIs and using our import features + custom report generator.
Here's a list of our API calls -> http://kb.worldsecuresystems.com/635/bc_635.html
Also the various import options within BC -> http://kb.worldsecuresystems.com/kb/importing-data.html
Lastly our custom customer report generator -> http://kb.worldsecuresystems.com/kb/build-customer-report.html
I would also if you haven't already go ahead and test out BC. It appears identifiers are what would be "users" having back-end access to the system to either generate a report or email broadcast who may also need to analyze incoming data.
If still needing assistance please reach out to our direct support so we can help guide you further if needed. -> http://helpx.adobe.com/contact.html
Kind regards,

Firstdata Global Gateway - Need help getting started

I’m using Coldfusion 9,0,0,251028 on Windows 7 64-bit.
I'm trying to change credit card processors for a website. I've read the integration guide for the Web Service API v 4.0, but it doesn't give me much in the way of how I integrate with coldfusion to build the xml that gets enclosed in SOAP and sent.
I've talked to Firstdata's second level support and was told they don't help with programming beyond troubleshooting error codes. They also told me they have no forum concerning the web service API.
What kind of tags in coldfusion would I use to start this transaction? Does anyone know where I could find an example or instructions besides the web service api integration guide?

ColdFusion has pretty good support for consuming SOAP web services, you might checkout the docs to get started: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/ColdFusion/9.0/Developing/WSc3ff6d0ea77859461172e0811cbec22c24 -7fbf.html
Also I'd ask if FirstData if they have any ColdFusion examples they can point you to, while they will not help with specific tasks, they might point you to some resources for example: https://firstdata.zendesk.com/entries/407568-first-data-global-gateway-e4sm-web-service-ap i-sample-code-cold-fusion

Photoshop Elements Help | Getting started tutorials

This question was posted in response to the following article: http://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop-elements/topics/getting-started-tutorials.html

Do you mean photo mkail or attachments? I’ve found it usually works best with web mail via Adobe after obtaining verification. I know some email services block bulk email completely and I’ve only tested it with Gmail which works fine. Should also work with other web mail e.g. Yahoo and Hotmail. Before you start it will help to check your internet security settings. If they are set to High, reduce the settings to Medium temporarily. Then follow these instructions.
1. Log in to your mail provider on the web and add the following email to your address/contacts book.
[email protected]
2. Open Organizer and on the menu click:
Edit >> Preferences >> Sharing
3. Choose Adobe Email Service from the client dropdown menu.
4. Add your name and email address to the fields provided and click OK
5. Test the system (first use only) by selecting a photo in organizer and choosing Share >> Photo Mail then click Next (Mac users should use attachments)
6. Choose a contact then click Next
7. Click Next Step, then click Next - the sender verification dialog will open.
8. Check you have spelt your email address correctly and hit the Resend E-Mail button.
9. Go to your inbox (also check spam) and when the Adobe mailer message is received copy (Ctrl+C) the long verification code.
10. Return to the verification dialog and paste it (Ctrl+V) into the Sender verification field and click OK. Wait for validation confirmation then click OK to continue

Need help getting started with the ML505 Development Kit

First of all, an admission...I am a newb to the FPGA world. A babe in the wilderness. I am trying to run a simple little logic design to get my feet wet. Four inputs using the WEST, CENTER, SOUTH, and EAST pushbuttons feeding two AND gates which feeds an OR gate which turns on the NORTH LED. I have tried to use the Platform Cable USB to download the project to the XCF32P Platform Flash PROM using the iMPACT software. As of yet I have been unable to get the program to run. The iMPACT program says the programming was successful but after pressing the PROG button, the DONE LED does not turn on. I've tried different settings with the Configuration Address and Mode DIP switches with no success. To anyone using the ML505, given the gear I have at my disposal, what would you recommend? What modes have you used that worked? Thanks in advance.

Here is the latest setup I have used in trying to get my FPGA to read from the Platform FLASH PROM. Configuration Address/Mode DIP switches set to 01011001 as per "My Own Platform Image Demonstration" method in the "ML505/ML506/ML507 Getting Started Tutorial" The Platform Cable USB is plugged into the JTAG connector on the ML505. Its status LED is green. In iMPACT the Boundary Scan reveals the following chain... TDI ----- xcf32p -----xcf32p-----xc9s144x1-----xccace-----xc5vlx50t-----TDO The same mcs file is loaded into both PROMs (xcf32p). I start the programming cycle. It completes and says "Programming Successful" I press the PROG button on the ML505 and the DONE LED does not turn on and the design does not work. With the same chain I add the bit file to the xc5vlx50t so I have the PROMs loaded with mcs files and the FPGA with the bit file. I run the program function again. "Programming successful" is again indicated. The DONE LED lights and the design works. I then press the PROG button. The DONE LED turns off and the design ceases to function. I have also tried this with only one PROM loaded with a mcs file with no success. What am I doing wrong? Am I missing something? Thanks in advance.

Newbie here getting started

Hi everyone, I'm just getting started to record my piano pieces to my computer. I have an old Technics SX-PR700 digital ensemble. I want to record music from the piano to my macbook. Here i have some doubts.
I want to record good audio sound as well as able to save the music notation to my computer. So I would need a midi cable right? A midi cable is able to record what notes can be played, but does it able to play actual recorded audio sound from my piano on the midi notes that is displayed on the program Audacity or Garage Band?
If not, I would need a LINE IN cable and a MIDI to do both work..?

Ok thanks for the helpful reply....I'm still a bit of confuse..been to many stores today to look for MIDI to USB cable Most of them are out of stock. However some sales promoters mention that, the common way to get MIDI out to computer is through another device which is the Interface. So i suppose there are direct ways from MIDI to MAC without an Interface right?
I did a google search mention that Interface are used as electronic equipment to Communicate to laptops. So what makes MIDI to MAC without an Interface workable? Same goes to audio recording from piano to mac directly without any interface....
My Old Technics has a Floppy Drive that records MIDI, If i can use a Floppy to record MIDI...then i do not need any cables at all....just need an external floppy drive to my mac possible?

Help getting started

So, I'm trying to get started working with Flash using
ActionScript. I've read some tutorials, browsed through some code,
and feel like I have enough resources to do what I want, with one
exception: I can't figure out how to get the actions I put on my
first frame to run. I've downloaded examples, and they all seem to
work; I feel like I've mimicked their syntax precisely, but it
appears I'm missing something, because my script isn't running.
Here's what I'm doing, step-by-step (using Macromedia Flash
MX Professional 2004, Trial):
-Create new Flash Document
-Import to Library: 1.jpg (picture of a panda bear)
-Window->Library to view library, drag 1.jpg onto canvas
-Right-click picture, Convert to Symbol: Movie Clip named
PandaClip
-Insert new layer above Layer 1, name it "actions"
-In the Actions window, with "Current Selection" reading
"actions : Frame 1", type:
PandaClip.onRelease = function() {
PandaClip._alpha = 0;
which, from my understanding, should mean that, when I click
on the picture, it'll disappear.
-Ctrl+Enter to test movie.
When I test the movie, I see the picture, but clicking on it
does nothing (I don't even get the finger pointer indicating it's
clickable).
So... can anyone see where I went wrong? 'Cause it's been
driving me nuts. If I attach an action to the PandaClip itself
using on(release), it works fine and dandy, but I'd really like to
be able to have some script run in the first frame...

Are you giving it an instance name of PandaPic or whatever in
the property inspector? Naming it PandaPic in the library doesn't
make it targetable in actionscript. To target anything on the stage
it must have an instance name in the property inspector unless that
object is created dynamically which you are not doing in your
example.

Help Getting Started with the Zen Vision:M (Z

Hi,I just got my ZVM and want to get started with it. I have a couple of questions, first:?. I have Windows Vista. Can I just plug in the ZVM and go without using the Installation CDs? Or do I still need to install something off of the installation discs?2. Why 2 installation discs? There is with a black cover that says Easy Start CD and has the Urge and Window Media Player logo at the bottom. The other is just in a plain white bordered sleeve with a light colored disc that says Zen Vision: M Installation CD at the bottom. I think I want to start with the light colored disc, but want to make sure. Thanks.

I think that the White disk that says Zen on it is the one you want it has Creative Media Source on it and is a very useful tool for me, the other disk has Windows Media Player on it and will also install a connection to a website that you can purchase tracks from (which i took off as soon as i found this out) not the WMP though, for some reason i could not get my Zen to work properly without the WMP loaded on my pc, however i use the Creative Media Source instead of the WMP.

Need help getting started -Editing software

Hello everyone
I need to get started with video editing on a Mac -
I didn't touch an editing software since 1998 , it was premiere 4.2 on a PC !
And didn't keep up with what's new but i'm now using a Mac!
I assume now most software allow realtime rendering, and have great tools !
So, I'd like to put together a holiday movie I shot on a DV camera-
once finished , it would either play from the computer connected to a Video projector AND / OR burned on a DVD .
I'd like to make something a bit creative : Split frames / moving Titles accross the screen etc...
my questions :
-If possible, I'd like to minimize the rendering process ( realtime?) What is a good editing software Imovie / Final cut ( which one?) / Premiere ?
-What can I use to create split frame ( video)
-What can I use to create moving titles ? ( important)
-Can this be achievable on a Macbook 1,83GHZ / 2GB of RAM/ 250GB EXT. Harddrive FW.?
Thanks for you inputs ( Open subject )
David

You don't need timecode to make frame accurate cuts.
You simply play or drag the playhead to roughly where you want it and then use the left and right arrow keys to move frame by frame to the exact frame you want.
Incidentally if you hold down the Shift key, each touch of the arrow key will jump 10 frames.
iMovie has a tremendous amount of potential which may be hidden away at first sight.
Take a look at those fantastic and easy to produce titles - the hardest part is typing the letters!
Incidentally, even FCE does not display the original tape timecode natively.
Ian.
P.S. The best way to unlock most of its secrets is to get a book. Most good libraries usually stock them or can get them for you.

Newbie alert! - need help getting started

Hello!
(If there is a better place to post this message, please forgive me, and tell
me where I should post.)
My team is moving to the Weblogic app server platform, and my current task is
to get my feet wet.
I've picked up a few things after digging around in the documentation, and on
this website, but I've got a few holes in my knowledge. If someone could point
me at where I should read, I'd appreciate it!
We've got JBuilder 9 Weblogic Edition installed on our dev boxen (Win2k PCs),
an Oracle database (Oracle 9i on a Sun box) prepared, and an application server
going (Sun Ultra-10 running Solaris 9 64-bit, named "wlapp"). I've installed Weblogic
Server 8.1 to the app server, and it seems to have installed correctly. I've managed
to get the medrec example running on that server (it took a little tweaking of
the script), but I have no idea how to access it.
I did a "ps -ef" and I can see a process called "htt_server" with a parameter
"-port 9010" running on it, but pointing a web browser to "http://wlapp:9010"
does nothing useful.
In the tutorial (http://edocs.bea.com/wls/docs81/medrec_tutorials/index.html)
it helpfully says "If you are interested in viewing or using the complete MedRec
application before starting the tutorials, you can use the pre-built MedRec domain
that is installed with WebLogic Server." It fails to mention how to make this
first, probably obvious, step.
Can anyone tell me how to try out my (hopefully running) MedRec example application?
Thanks in advance! --- Eric

Hi,
Can you provide us the server configuration you entered in the Project creation wizard (New Flex Project -> Configure ColdFusion server wizard)?
The error shown looks like a configuration problem.

Lol, im a newbie. Completely new. Simple programming help, getting started.

Im completely new to programming, and i want to just figure out how to make a program that shows a bit of text, and just an about that shows an icon and a bit more text. Thats it for now. I figured out how to use Interface Builder to make the interface i need, i also figured out where to put the main.nib file and also how to turn a folder into an application, i just need to know how to make the other files. If there is a tutorial for the very basics of making a form and making it into an application, sorry i didn't find it. Any help appreciated.
Thanks!

Hello,
you simply started with the second step before the first: A .nib file is part of a program, and not the other way round.
1.: Start XCode.
2.: Use File=>New Project...
3.: Choose "Cocoa Application"
4.: Give it a name, e.g. "SmallApp"
5.: In the "SmallApp" window, double-click the "MainMenu.xib" file
6.: Now you're in the IBuilder - here you can edit the interface
7.: Save & Quit IBuilder
8.: Back in Xcode - press <cmd>-<Return> (for Build & Run)
9.: Now you should have a working SmallApp.app

Newbie, help getting started...?
