No control over amount of screenshots taken when recording

Hello-my coworker is working on Captivate 5.5 on a PC running on Windows XP and when recording (in Internet Explorer), Captivate takes screen shots when he is not clicking and when the computer is thinking. When I record using Captivate, I don't have that issue- mine only records mouse motions and takes screen shots when I click or force a screen shot. The problem is that all of the screen shots make for A LOT of slides that we have to go through and delete/edit, so does anyone have an idea what is happening or where we may have to change a setting? Thank you!

Hello,
Welcome to Adobe Forums.
As per my understanding, if you are recording Internet Explorer (Chosen Automatic Recording), then it creates slides when Internet Explorer is thinking (Trying to load the page).
Does Internet Explorer take that same time while opening or loading the page on your computer ?
Thanks,
Vikram

When I had 10.6.8, itunes would leave a left over amount in itunes apps. When I got the upgrade to 10.7 I thougt the problem would go away but it did not. There is a bug in the app system and I think it should be resolve quickly.

When I had 10.6.8, itunes would have a left over amount in itunes apps, it would show you would have 8 apps that need to be updated. I would got to up date them and there would be no apps to up date. 2 days later I would go to up date apps and it would show I have 15 apps to update when I really have 6 then it would add on more invisable apps to which is not there. There is a bug in itunes that needs to be fixed please fix this app section. I have sent letters about this before and you did not listen. I a beta tester and I hate it when my requests don't get fixed.

You are on Windows 2000, you do not have a "Firefox" button, and should consider yourself to be fortunate in that you still have menus and don't have to do anything to get the menus back instead of the "Firefox" button. (The same applies to Windows XP users).
Use the "File" menu to get to Import. You are not on Windows 7 or Vista, and don't have to put up with the nonsense added for Aero.
If you want the "Firefox" button you can get it with View -> toolbars -> (uncheck) Menu Bar. The menu bar and the "Firefox" button were supposed to be mutually exclusive (which is impossible in some cases without being incompatible).
Once you are using the "Firefox" button ...
Use the "Alt" key to view the menu bar (temporarily) containing File, Edit, View, History, Bookmarks, Tools, and Help. On Windows 7 and Vista, the menu bar was hidden by default in Firefox 4 and above. These menu items are more or less available under the "Firefox" button which has the most used of the built-in Firefox menu items available in a different format.
To get back to having menus again. "Firefox" button -> Options (second column) -> (check) Menu Bar
You can make '''Firefox 7.0.1''' look like Firefox 3.6.*, see numbered '''items 1-10''' in the following topic [http://dmcritchie.mvps.org/firefox/firefox-problems.htm#fx4interface Fix Firefox 4.0 toolbar user interface, problems (Make Firefox 4.0 thru 8.0, look like 3.6)].

How do I remove old web site when publishing new site with same URL in iweb? Hit replace when publishing new iweb site (so we could have control over changes) but new site name is attached to old via a / after our www address we want to keep.

I hit the replace when publishing the new iweb site (so we could have control over changes - last one was not an apple based site) but new site name is attached to old via a forward slash and underscore after our www address. Makes it very messy with a very long web address. Original address now followed by iweb site name followed by name of first page? Went for iweb as not that computer literate - all going so well?! Cheers for help in anticipation. Have to get off to work now but be great end to week if we could be sorted tonight. Rupes

Well yes of course, if you try and publish through iWeb there won't be an option to publish without your site folder which is exactly why I told you to download Cyberduck and use Cyberduck to upload your site to your server having published your site from iWeb to a local folder. That is what you need to do if you don't want your site name to be included in yoru url.
It would have been easier also if you had used Cyberduck initially to connect to your server and delete your old site yourself - at least that way you would have deleted the correct files rather than relying on your hosting service to do it and doing it incorrectly.
Download Cyberduck and then select the publish to a local folder option from iWeb and then use Cyberduck to upload your site to your server, but rather than uploading the whole site folder and separate index file, upload ONLY the contents of your site folder and then your url will be http://www.domain.com/page_name.html.
It really isn't rocket science!

When I copy and paste a chapter from MS Word into Pages my tables and equations are trashed. But importing them results in no control over my template How do I get my chapter into my template without copying

Try just Opening the Word .doc from within Pages and see if that gets closer to what you want, then copy the chapter you want from the Pages version.

Any ideas on how to control the amount of sustain pedal data that Logic Pro 9 records? Every time I press the sustain pedal down, it records 4 sustains. Same thing when I release the pedal. Thanks!

This gets confusing, you have two Macs with different issues and two pedals with different issues? First let's sort out what's what. So, do the issues come from the pedals or from the Mac software? To find out, simply switch the pedals and note their behaviour. No change: it's the software, change: it's the pedals (imho the most likely scenario).
Second, what kind of pedals are they? Can you name the type of pedal too? The Yamaha what and the Mgear which?
Third, with the 4 fold data problem, are the doubled events simultaneous, or a few ticks apart, or more?
Also, you have no MIDI keyboard? Are the pedals both "standalone"?
I think you have to sort this problem at its' source, which are the pedals. You could, if push really comes to shove, perhaps create some sort of ingeneous/elaborate transformer setup in the environment to filter the extra messages, although with the 4/4 sustain events that may not even be possible. With the "stepped" events you could set up a filter to just block all events with values 20-110 or so.
But much better would be to configure the pedal(s) correctly.

Having issues with my MacBook. Even when the internet is disconnected, apps are still closing and opening on their own. I sometimes do not have control over my cursor.....any suggestions?

Having issues with my MacBook. Even when the internet is disconnected, apps are still closing and opening on their own. I sometimes do not have control over my cursor.....any suggestions?

There are several possible causes for this issue. Please take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried until it's resolved. Some may not be apply in your case.
1. Follow the instructions in this support article, and also this one, if applicable. A damaged or defective AC adapter could be the cause, even if it's the right kind.
2. Open the Bluetooth preference pane in System Preferences and delete all pointing devices other than the trackpad, if applicable. Disconnect any USB pointing devices. By a "pointing device," I mean a peripheral that moves the cursor, such as a trackpad, mouse, trackball, or graphics tablet. A plain keyboard is not a pointing device.
3. Start up in safe mode and test, preferably without launching any third-party applications. If you don't have the problem in safe mode, but it comes back when you restart as usual, stop here and post your results. Do the same if you can't start in safe mode. If there was no difference in safe mode, go on to the next step.
4. Reset the System Management Controller.
5. If you're using a Bluetooth trackpad, investigate potential sources of interference, including USB 3 devices.
6. A swollen battery in a portable computer can impinge on the trackpad from below and cause erratic behavior. If you have trouble clicking the trackpad, this is likely the reason. The battery must be replaced without delay.
7. Press down all four corners of the trackpad at once and release. If there's any effect, it's likely to be temporary, and the unit needs to be serviced or replaced.
8. There's a report that a (possibly defective) Thunderbolt Ethernet adapter can cause the built-in trackpad of a MacBook to behave erratically. If you're using such an adapter, disconnect it and test.
9. There's also a report of erratic cursor movements caused by an external display that was connected but not turned on.
10. If none of the above applies, or if you have another reason to think that your computer is being remotely controlled, remove it from the network by turning off Wi-Fi (or your Wi-Fi access point), disconnecting from a Bluetooth network link, and unplugging the Ethernet cable or USB modem, whichever is applicable. If the cursor movements stop at once, you should suspect an intrusion.
11. Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store to have the machine and/or external trackpad tested.

Do I have control over "USE flags" when compile from source

I have used Gentoo and like it's system specific customizations, but am looking for something a slight bit easier to maintain. I noticed that Arch also compiles as part of the installation. Do I have control over the system wide compile setting in order to customize the builds similar to what is done is Gentoo? Or, is the pacman process a "one size fits all" installer without customizations, for such things as architecture, with or without certain extensions...
Thanks for your info. This looks like the distro for me, but am researching first.

It's a one-size-fits-all approach for the official binary repos and many weird and wonderful things can be found in the AUR or unofficial user repos. You can also use ABS to alter the configuration yourself, but you would have to edit PKGBUILDs for every package you want to change (e.g. add '--enable-foo') as Arch doesn't use the USE flags.
Official Arch packages support only i686 and generic 64-bit architectures, but e.g. linux -ck kernel https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=111715 is provided optimized for many specific processors.

Any control over page size when outputting PDF files?

Is there any way to control page size in the Book creation section (currently 8.5 x 11) or to control the final output page size when printing to PDF? I'd like to create some 10x10 pages (so I can print 10x10 photos) using the excellent Aperture book/album layout features.

It looks like this has been discussed in previous posts... I did find a nice workaround though which allows us to make pages with usable dimensions for going to photo printing...other than the 8.5x11 offered by aperture .

How to get more control over DVR recordings

Looking for some advice on how to make sure the DVR records (and keeps) the episodes I want.
An example:
I want to record a series that is still producing new episodes, but is also in repeats in syndication. For example, Big Bang Theory. This has new episodes each week on CBS, but has about twenty or so repeats each day on TBS.
Due to the high number of repeats, any new episodes pretty quickly get overwritten by the repeats. So is there a way to record both first-run and repeat episodes, but prevent the first-runs from getting overwritten before I can watch them?

GRubinstein1 wrote:
I have no idea if the format has recently been changed or what the issue is, but when I try to get more control over my DVR recordings, I can't. What I mean by that is that I cannot alter "First-Run and Repeats" to "First-Run Only," I cannot specify the specific channel to record on, I cannot say how many episodes I want it to keep, etc. Here is a step-by-step guide of what I do and what the problem is:
I press the "menu" button on the remote. I scroll down to DVR. I select the option of "manage series recordings." I select one of my shows. I'll use "Masters of Sex" as my example. I select "Masters of Sex." It's at this point where I get a problem. When I select "Masters of Sex," the only option I get is to cancel the series. No option to only record first-runs. No option to keep only 3 episodes instead of 5. No option to change it so it saves until I manually record it. Nothing. I've tried not selecting "Masters of Sex" and instead using the right arrow button to scrol over to the settings of the show. But nothing happens when I do that. It doesn't give me access to these options. This is incredibly frustrating because not only do the shows delete automatically at a certain point, but it records EVERY SINGLE AIRING OF EVERY SINGLE SHOW I RECORD. This means I have to go through several times a day to the "Scheduled Recordings" section and delete scheduled recordings of shows I have already seen. It's absolutely ridiculous, particularly for cable shows, which air episodes frequently throughout the week. Please help me if you can.
Put simply, I cannot change the settings on how I record each show.

I have a keynote presentation that includes a significant amount of video. When I edit the keynote slides (not the video slides) how can I save the changes without re-saving the videos (because that takes a VERY long time)?

I have a keynote presentation that includes a significant amount of video. When I edit the keynote slides (not the video slides) how can I save the changes without re-saving the videos (because that takes a VERY long time)? I edit the presentation depending on the audience to which I am presenting.

If you add a new slide with just a text box (therefore a very small amount of data), to an existing presentation then save, Keynote will only save the new content to the file, it wont save pre-existing content as its already included in the file.
The time taken to "save" will be very much shorter than a "save as" when all of the existing content is saved again.

How can I know the amount of free RAM when my VI is running?

I need to know the amount of free RAM when my VI is running.

If you are using Windows NT/2000/XP, monitoring free memory is very easy. Simply right click on the task bar and open the Task Manager. Click on the Performance tab, and you'll be able to monitor the physical memory total and available on your PC.
If you are using Windows 9X, you will have to add some optional resources. Open Control Panel, then select Add/Remove Programs. Click on the Windows Setup Tab, and select System Tools, then click the Details... button. Check the boxes to install System Monitor and System Resource Meter. Click OK, and you will be prompted for your Windows CD. Insert the CD and Windows will add the monitoring tools. You can then use them to watch your free resources.

Screenshot problem when I do a cmnd shft 4 to take a screenshot to desktop it goes to the clipboard instead of the desktop I am using mavericks

screenshot problem when I do a cmnd shft 4 to take a screenshot to desktop it goes to the clipboard instead of the desktop I am using mavericks any sugestions please

Usually the Control key is required, instead of the Command key,
to save the screen shot to clipboard. What happens if you use
the correct sequence of keys to save to clipboard, then?
According to duane, in older discussion, general keystroke/effects:
Command-Shift-3: Take a screenshot of the screen, and save it as a file on the desktop
Command-Shift-4, then select an area: Take a screenshot of an area and save it as a file on the desktop
Command-Shift-4, then space, then click a window: Take a screenshot of a window and save it as a file on the desktop
Command-Control-Shift-3: Take a screenshot of the screen, and save it to the clipboard
Command-Control-Shift-4, then select an area: Take a screenshot of an area and save it to the clipboard
Command-Control-Shift-4, then space, then click a window: Take a screenshot of a window and save it to the clipboard

Step by step Create a Desktop Administrator to have full and total control over desktops only

I have been trying to setup a Desktop Admin so that the group has full and total control over all desktops. I am using SCCM 2012 SP1. I have found very little documentation that explains in detail on how to set this up. I have read about role based access,
but found nothing that explains in detail how to setup an administrator that can do everything but only with desktop machines, not servers.

Hi John and Matthew,
Great link John, thank you for that. I did follow the instructions to a "T", but the Desktop Admin is still having problems. He is trying to image a new machine (so it is not in the collection yet). When he tries to import it by using the "Import
Computer Information Wizard", he gets to the "Choose Target Collection" tab, selects the "Browse" button, but cannot see any collections. I have verified (using the instructions that Matthew provided - thank you) that he is a "Full Administrator" for
the Desktop collections and folders where they are located.
Could you please tell me what I am missing?
Ken

STO- How to control Over delivery with batch split?

Dear All,
In STO Scenario, how to control the over delivery?
I created a PO for the Intra Company stock transfer & Delivery created in the Background with the T Code VL10B. When I am doing picking using T code VL02N, the system is allowing to add more than PO Quantity in batches and system displaying the warning message (Specified quantity is greater than the open quantity/Message no. VL287) & allowing to save the deliver document..
Hence plz suggest how to restrict the same.
Hope it is clear.
Thanks & Regards
varun

I am also in the same boat.
I searched the forum and got the link STO - How to control Over delivery ?
I checked OSS notes 548914, 386340,215488 but to no avail.
I suggested user exit USEREXIT_SAVE_DOCUMENT_PREPARE in include MV50AFZ1 to my technical team for finding the resolution. So far it is still on hold.
If you come across any other solution, you can update the forum so that it would be helpful for many others.

C7280 - Cannot scan. Error message says another program has control over the device

I opened the HP Device Manager to do a scan. I accepted the settings and the scan started. But part way through the scan, I stopped the scan as I realized that I wanted to change the resolution. I quit the Device Manager and restarted it but when I did, I got an error message saying:
"The function you have requested cannot be performed because another program has control over the device".
I don't have anything else open and so I can't work out what program has control over the printer.
C7280 Prtinter. Mac OSX 10.7.
This question was solved.
View Solution.

I was thinking that if you stopped the process in mid-scan that there may be some background processes still running. Rebooting usually stops those processes.
No, you will not have to do this each time. Next time, though, it may be easier to just let the scan complete and the do another scan at whatever setting you want.
Say thanks by clicking "Kudos" "thumbs up" in the post that helped you.
