No Fedex Ship Mananger For Mac OS X ?

One of my relatives is about to switch to the Mac unless there is Fedex Ship Manager available for the Mac. I know about using Parallels, but he doesn't want to have to use Parallels. Any ideas?
Thanks,
Mason

I emailed them, they just told me that there software was not compatible with Mac OS X and that I would need to have a PC for it to work. I've found some other possible solutions (VMware Fusion, CrossOver,.....). I'm still going to try and get him to use Parallels as it seems to be the easiest solution.
Thanks,
Mason

BlackBerry Desktop Mananger for Mac Hangs

When I open the BlackBerry Desktop Manager on my Mac (10.5.8), it hangs and eventually crashes. This configuration has worked perfectly for the last couple years, but started hanging today.
I tried uninstalling, then reinstalling the Desktop Manager, but there was no change.
In my Console log, the following appears before it crashes:
Feb 28 22:42:53 Debras-MacBook-2 BlackBerry Desktop Software[266]: NSExceptionHandler has recorded the following exception:\nNSUncaughtSystemExceptionException -- Uncaught system exception: signal 10\nStack trace: 0xf9c21e 0x953a81cb 0xffffffff 0x9546775c 0x951d517a 0x9508d7e4 0x95114264 0x21234a 0x3af9 0x94ffc42a 0x94f1247a 0x94f12753 0x94ff9680 0x95002ed8
Please help!

Just playing around to see if I could try something different to figure out the "delete 25%" issue. I noticed that you mentioned in your original post that you had set your BB to keep appointments forever. Well I thought that I had done the same. It turns out that I had not! This evening I have set my new BB to keep appointments forever and I have had success in sync-ing. I have made some test entries and they are working out OK so far without any hangups. I am reluctant to say that I have solved my problems with sync and Desktop mgr for Mac but I will try some things over the course of the next few days and see if I go forward problem free. I will report again in a few days. In the meantime, I am keeping my fingers crossed!

Barcode use for Delivery doc number insert into FedEx Ship Manager

Hi Experts,
I'm new to scanners and a client asked if they can use a scanner to insert the delivery document number into FedEx Ship Manager. (They already have a add-on that will then popuolate the rest of the Delivery details in FedEx Ship Manager)
Is this possible?
What Scanners is supported by SAP?
Any help would be appreciated.
Marli

Hi Marli,
Most of the time the client would be happy with a simple wedge scanner, either wired or wireless, to scan a barcoded Delivery Number into FedEx Ship Manager. They can be programmed to automatically hit return after the scan to initial the import. A wedge scanner is compatible at a hardware level, think of it like a keyboard. The scanner basically "types" the number into the field.
You would also need to make a barcode on your print out for the Delivery (or Pick or Pack). The PLD includes a Barcode format, as does Crystal Reports (Right click,convert to Barcode). Just duplicate the Doc Num, and change the format.
Hope it helps..

Memory deficiency related to AutoUpdate shipped with Office for Mac 2011

Hi ,
I am experiencing memory deficiency associated with Microsoft AutoUpdate for about a month or two.
Environment
* Macbook Pro with 8G RAM, 256GB SSD Running Mac OS 10.10.1 (Yosemite)
* Microsoft Office for Mac 2011 installed through my Office 365 University subscription a few months ago.
* The "Outlook 2011.app" has been deleted and is substituted by the new Outlook for Mac 15.3 (141024), as is suggested by its installation note.
* System and Office languages are both simplified Chinese.
Symptom
Office programmes like "Excel.app" regularly invoke Microsoft AutoUpdate (Version 3.0 (141024) ) and suggest that a new update is available. If the user agrees, AutoUpdate will proceed to download the update. It is found by monitoring memory usage using "Activity Monitor.app", the memory usage rises significantly overtime a short while after the download begins. And the memory usage eventually saturates a few minutes later and the system warns instability due to memory deficiency, and suggests force quit some apps.
* No other app seems to be causing this problem, which is verified by quitting any app other than "/Library/Microsoft/MAU2.0/Microsoft AutoUpdate.app".
* The symptom is reproducible for today's update, and it was the same for the last update. But as far as I can remember, the auto-update worked well before that.
The problem makes auto-update impossible and has resulted in instability and loss.
The workaround that I have at this time is to download the update package (.pkg in .dmg) from Microsoft Download Center by following the Knowledge Base link given by AutoUpdate instead of having AutoUpdate do this for me.
Thank you for reading this far :-)
Is anyone else experiencing the same problem?

Follow these instructions to uninstall MacKeeper. They have been tested with the most recent version of MacKeeper (v 2.8). Earlier versions than the one released in 2012 require more extensive work to uninstall all its components.
The effects of having actually used MacKeeper to do anything are a completely different matter. The fastest way to take an exquisitely designed and painstakingly engineered Mac and make it run like a steaming pile of dung is to install and use such ill-conceived "cleaning" or "security" products. This is just one example of a broad category of time- and money-wasters capable of causing damage that can only be rectified by reinstalling OS X, restoring from a backup, or completely erasing your system and rebuilding it from the ground up. Never install such junk on a Mac.
If you used MacKeeper to encrypt any files or folders, use MacKeeper to un-encrypt them first.
Quit the MacKeeper app if it is running.
Open your Applications folder: Using the Finder's Go menu, select Applications.
Drag the MacKeeper icon from your Applications folder (not the Dock) to the Trash.
You will be asked to authenticate (twice):
You do not need to provide a reason for uninstalling it:
Just click the Uninstall MacKeeper button. You will be asked to authenticate again.
After it uninstalls you may empty the Trash and restart your Mac. All that will remain is an inert log file that does nothing but occupy space on your hard disk.

Printing FedEx shipping labels

We’re starting an online business and will be using FedEx for shipping. We have a FedEx account and in a couple months will have an online shopping cart up with built in FedEx integration but for now we just have an informational website up and we’re processing and shipping orders manually.
We want to be able to print FedEx shipping labels, just seeing if there are any special printer requirements for doing it on a Mac. I searched the FedEx site and the net in general and didn’t find much information on this topic, so thought I'd try here.

Nothing Mac-specific. Just make sure that you use something other than an ink-jet printer -- if for no other reason than typical inkjet prints can become quite illegible if they get wet.

El Gato or Hauppauge? Best For Mac? Help!!!

I JUST POSTED THIS TO hdpvrcapture.com & avsforum.COM
As well as sending it to Hauppauge & El Gato seperately.
Forgive the lack of clearer paragraphs, but with copy & paste the paragraphs disappear on this forum.
WHAT IS THE BEST VIDEO RECORDER FOR MAC?
EL GATO of HAUPPAUGE?
PLEASE HELP....I REALLY NEED YOUR HELP!!!!!
HERE ARE THE DETAILS
I AM NOT REALLY A GAMER!!!
PLEASE HELP!!!
NOTE:
1. I own an Apple MAC Pro Desktop Tower
2. I own ONE TV a 32" Sony HD TV (1080i or 1080P if by HDMI)
3. I own ONE Dish Network DuoDVR VIP 722K, it's a Dual Tuner HD Satellite Receiver (It can operate two TV's...TV1 in HD at 1080i or 1080p if using HDMI......TV2 at 480p SD only....But since I only have ONE TV I only use the 2nd tuner (TV2) to be able to record one show on tuner 2.....While at the same time on the 1st tuner (TV1) I'm watching, channel surfing, pausing live TV and recording onto my VCR/VHS little video clips of what I see as I channel surf from tuner 1 (TV1).
4. I still own a VCR and still use it to record my movies and channel surfing clips to VHS/VCR cassette tapes (But this must stop soon).
5. My signal comes from the HD Dish to the HD Sat. Receiver to the VCR then to the HD Television.
6. I own a large stereo digital receiver that I loop all sound through, so whatever I hear on my TV or computer, I can hear it on my speakers depending on what button I select on the stereo receiver.
7. I also own an Apple TV, I very small black box that allows me to connect my iPhone to The Apple TV by picking up my iPhone's personal wi-fi hotspot and then whatever I can see or watch on my iPhone I can then see on my 32" HD TV. I do NOT have ANY internet connection other than my iPhone, I have no regular wi-fi, cable, dsl, not even dial up, the only internet I have is a cellular data internet connection from my celluar telephone provider. HOW WILL THE APPLE TV WORK WITH ALL OF THIS?
NOTE: Regardless of what I say below I just need to be able to do the following no matter WHAT I have to buy.
1. Be able to record what I see as I channel surf onto my MAC.
2. Basically I need to replace what my VCR is now doing for me, except it needs to be recorded on my MAC.
3. I would like to be able to dub the movies on my Satellite DVR to my MAC as a backup.
4. It would be nice if this recorder would be able to handle timed recordings, dual viewing and recording, pausing live tv?, etc stuff like that but NOT vital I guess, considering what I've been putting up with for all these years.
5. I really need to dub/transfer hundreds of VHS tapes to my MAC, but I've heard that many recorders have trouble with this.
6. I must dub/transfer many dozens of 8MM Camcorder video tapes to my mac, I have not researched this yet, I don't know if they have better luck than the VHS transfers.
7. I also have literally thousands of micro-cassette audio & regular audio cassette tapes that need to be dubbed, but that is probably not applicable here.
HERE'S THE DETAILS.......
1. MAC Pro Desktop Tower, Dish Network Satellite Receiver DuoDVR VIP 722k, Sony HD TV, VCR, 8MM Camcorder
2. 7 months ago I converted to MAC I bought a used MAC pro tower, and I
am LOVING it, I was a PC guy for about 15 years, no more hand holding
and changing the PC's diapers FINALLY my computer is just a dependable
low maintenance friend.
3. By the way does anyone know if the Dish Network DuoDVR 722k is better than the 922k for what I'm doing?
4. I THINK I am getting ready to buy either an Hauppauge 1504 HDPVR Gaming
Edition Plus, or the Hauppauge HDPVR Gaming Edition Plus 2 OR PERHAPS something from El Gato (I have not researched El Gato yet).
5. I've spent some time researching this online, and have been on the
phone with Hauppauge several times, I DID look into El Gato as well,
but for SOME reason, I quickly reverted my thoughts back to Hauppauge;
but I can't remember why, I think it was something that limited me.
6. I've never even owned a tv tuner before, over the years and up to this
day, when I watch tv, I like to record some clips of what I watch BUT
I am still using a old VCR and this needs to change soon.
7. I am in my 50's and am not really a gamer yet, maybe someday, all I
will likely use the recorder for is for recording movies and tv clips
etc while channel surfing and dubbing a LOT of VHS tapes & 8MM Camcorder videotapes to my MAC's
hard drive.
8. I NEED YOUR HELP in making the VERY BEST decision for ME.
9. I realize that a vast majority of tv is copy right protected so I will need to use the component
inputs/outputs when recording my TV clips or movies etc. Otherwise the copy right
protection will block me.
10. I DO realize that because I'm a MAC user that the BEST Hauppauge
solution is the Hauppauge HDPVR 1504 Gaming Edition Plus because the
MAC software comes bundled with it, but I also understand that
Hauppauge is mainly for PC users.
11. One person with first hand experience told me that the Hauppauge HDPVR 2 Gaming edition plus capture VHS transfers better than the Hauppauge HDPVR 1504
12. HERE IS THE ISSUE...I want to buy the Hauppauge 1504, I'll take
another look at El Gato (I was told El Gato is For MAC users), but for
some reason the last time I researched El Gato, I quickly learned
there was some limitation that sent me back to Hauppauge (can't
remember what).
13. HERE IS THE ONLY THING that is keeping me from buying the Hauppauge
1504, I will be doing a LOT of recording with this recorder to my MAC
Pro tower hard drive. This will include just recording movies while
watching satellite tv, and recording little clips from tv as I channel
surf AND AND AND.... DUBBING/TRANSFERRING MY HUGE NUMBER OF MY OLD VHS/VCR Video
Cassette Tapes & a lot of 8MM Camcorder video tapes using the Hauppauge or El Gato recorder to my Mac Pro
Tower hard drives.
14. I only mention this, because I've heard that the Hauppauge HDPVR 1504
"chokes" on VHS transfers. I don't know why and I don't even know if
this is true.
15. One person with first hand experience told me that the Hauppauge HDPVR 2 Gaming edition plus capture VHS transfers better than the Hauppauge HDPVR 1504...IS THIS TRUE.......If so what is my BEST solution NO MATTER WHAT THE BRAND IS????
16. I just want to buy THE VERY BEST recorder for my MAC Pro Tower, and
don't want ANY limitations with regards to copy right protection
issues or "choke" issues when dubbing my HUNDREDS of VHS tapes & 8MM Camcorder video tapes with
the Hauppauge 1504 or whatever I buy.
17. IS THERE A INTERNAL SOLUTION......YOU KNOW INSTALL A RECORDER OR CARD INTO MY MAC DESKTOP....OR IS THE EXTERNAL SOLUTION MORE FLEXIBLE? BETTER?
18. THE ONLY THING else that concerns me is that Hauppauge is primarily
for PC users and El Gato is primarily for MAC users,
19. BUT I am NOT sure El Gato has what I need, the issue that concerns me is that there is
SOME reason after researching El Gato that I returned to Hauppauge, I
need to do more research but I THINK it might have been something to
do with my NEED to use component inputs/outputs to avoid the copyright
protection issue, maybe El Gato doesn't have the component
connectors?.
20. IT WOULD BE MUCH APPRECIATED if you can offer me insight and advice on
HOW TO MAKE THE VERY BEST DECISION IN BUYING THE VERY BEST RECORDER
FOR MY MAC PRO TOWER, SATELLITE TV MOVIE, VHS & 8MM TRANSFER RECORDINGS.
Much Appreciation,
Randy
"Perfection Seeker"
P.S....I also have an Apple TV, a small black box a little larger than
a couple packs of cigarettes, how will this fit into the equation and
will it work with the Hauppauge 1504?
If the Hauppauge 1504 can only record & playback on a MAC, then what features and function will I be
missing out on?
One person told me to buy an OLD DVD recorder for PC
and use that because the copy right protection thing was not on the
older ones; hopefully I will not need to do this.
Another person said the Hauppauge Colossus might be my solution, I don't know.
I have done none or little research into this but does ATI, Avermedia Portable,
Eye TV, Sony have any solutions for me EXTERNAL OR INTERNAL? Any suggestions or advice
would be MUCH APPRECIATED......I JUST NEED TO BUY SOMETHING THAT I KNOW WILL WORK WELL FOR ME......I WAS HOPING FOR A SOLUTION SOON, BECAUSE I CAN'T GO ON FOREVER RESEARCHING THIS.......THANK YOU!!!!!!
P.P.S.....Do you know of any other REALLY GOOD WEBSITES I can post my
questions and concerns to?.....THANK YOU!!!!!!
PPPS…..I was told/under the impression after speaking to Hauppauge a few times that the HDPVR Gaming Edition Plus 1504? included the Mac software whereas the HDPVR 2 Gaming Edition Plus did NOT ship with Mac software, the last time I talked to Haupaugge, they advised me to forget the “2” because it doesn’t contain the Mac software (they said) BUT you mentioned that people who do VHS transfers have better luck with the HDPVR 2 Gaming Edition Plus 1504?….anyway.
From what I gather El Gato has their own PVR/devices for MAC that utilize EyeTV software for MAC computers.
BUT I could be wrong here but after reading your links, EyeTV is not only used on El Gato devices but can be used with Hauppauge devices as well?
Here’s a stupid question I guess I forget, I read so much; but can HDPVRcapture be used with El Gato devices?
IMPORTANT QUESTION: I just upgraded from a Dish Network 625 SD receiver to a Dish Network DuoDVR VIP 722k HD receiver…1st of all is THIS receiver COMPATIBLE with Hauppauge HDPVR 2 GE Plus? AND The El Gato devices and HDPVRcapture AND EyeTV?
IN OTHER WORDS……Regardless of what you say to me here PRIVATELY…..I know you have your personal interests BUT what would I be better off with since I am a MAC PERSON?
My 8MM camcorder video tapes are in really good condition
BUT many of my VHS tapes are in BAD condition, they have not been played in over 20 years many of them. You mentioned below that your recorder will only work with supported resolutions, if so many of my tapes are in such bad condition does this mean they will be rejected?
Almost all of my PERSONALLY recorded VHS tapes are recordings of me just channel surfing and recording movies over the past 30 years, AND I almost always recorded in SLP mode on the VCR (not SLP mode)…..To be able to get 6-8 hours on one VHS tape….HOW DOES THIS PLAY IN…..Keep in mind I have THOUSANDS of VHS tapes, but only 50-100 8MM Camcorder video tapes.
What type of VCR would be best to use to attempt this project? I mean should I buy a old high end one on Ebay or just anything that works?
One of your links mentioned that HDPVR 2 GE Plus does NOT do HDMI……..What will I be missing out on by NOT having this option, I assume both HDPVR & HDPVR 2 have component plugs.
Hauppauge told me that I can only record and playback If I use a MAC, What features & functions will I be missing out on if I get the Hauppauge instead of the El Gato, 1st of all I don’ even know if El Gato had component plugs or not, but both El Gato & EyeTV is made especially for MAC……..BUT yours looks/seems more impressive and expandable.
THIS IS NOT A QUESTION FOR YOU I GUESS BUT…..I think my satellite dish only has one input cable feeding the dual tuner dual tv Dish Network tuner I have, to be able to do picture in picture so I can pause live tv on 2 channels at once will I need to feed a 2nd cable from the dish to do this?
I DID READ ALL THE FAQ’S BUT STILL HAVE QUESTIONS…..hopefully I’m not too redundant.
VERY IMPORTANT QUESTIONS:
Does Hauppauge come with a remote control or ability to incorporate remote control into my satellite/mac/tv system?
Hauppauge’s lowest supported resolution is 576i50, but aren’t video tapes something like 240i or p?
What does “no PCC support” mean?
Do I need a special add on sound card or just the one that is built into my Mac Pro Tower?
Will the HDPVR 2 GE Plus record audio?
Will this Hauppauge device work in any way with my Apple TV?
Does HDPVR have more RCA jacks than HDPVR 2?
I’ve heard that people had better success dubbing VHS tapes with HDPVR 2, and you mentioned something about ONE HOUR trouble free recording….My question is since most of my VHS tapes are 6 hours in length will the one hour error free limit ? Limit me or can I go longer than 1 hour?
I do NOT have ANY internet where i live, no wi-fi, no cable , no DSL, ONLY cellular data to my iPhone tethered to my MAC PRO and my internet speed is usually 1 mbps or less………Does this factor in with the basic use of this device as imagined?
Will I have no delay pass through of live tv and playing back of pre-recorded movies on my satellite DVR?
Is the any way to pause live or recorded play?
Do I need a Windows PC to INSTALL Hauppauge & HDPVRcapture software?
Is this the right time to buy? I mean are there any Big changes on the horizon where it would be wise to wait?
Who has smaller file sizes Hauppauge or El Gato?
Will I need a distribution amplifier? I need to go from my satellite receiver to the PVR and then to the TV AND the MAC……Will I need a distribution amplifier?
Are there any INTERNAL solution that would benefit me?
Can Hauppauge work with both my tuners on my dual satellite tv receiver?
Do I use quicktime to record VHS & 8MM?
How does iMovie fit into all of this?
How does Final Cut Pro fit into all of this? I’M NEW TO MAC!!!!!!!
Does a VCR require a component or composite cable?
Can I insert logos with my MAC?
Can I trim/edit with my MAC?
Can I stream with my MAC?
Can I upload (if ever needed) with my MAC?
Can I record game play (if ever needed) on my MAC?
Can I chat or add things to feed or whatever with my MAC?
I need to make a decision soon, all this research is frustrating me and killing my brain and eyesight!!!
Thank You!!!!!!
Randy

Absolutely none.
Antivirus software is NOT needed if the Mac you are running is only running OS X. Antivirus apps interfere with normal performance and operation of a Mac because they program too many controls into the main OS X system software impacting general performance of your Mac.
Here are some of my tidbits of advice on how to avoid viruses in the future, if you encounter a virus, again.
Some anti-virus solutions can slow down your Mac, but to be honest, the best anit-virus app is you, the user and your brain.
Don't visit questionable websites or website you are unsure about.
Don't use Torrents or engage in "Torrenting"
Don't install pirated software or software downloaded from a questionable or unknown websites or untrutsted sources.
Java is still a vulnerability concern, if you do not need it, don't use it.
Use a browser filter and pop-up blocker
Don't open email attachments from email addresses that you do not recognize.
Install security updates when they become available
Educate yourself as to what threats are common and active.
In effect, use your own brain as the antivirus filter.
Follow that advise and in MOST cases, you will be fine and won't risk your Mac to potential Trojans, malware or viruses.
If you feel you need some baseline virus protection that is minimally invasive on the Mac OS X system, install
ClamXAV

Raw images do not show up in Bridge CS4 for PSE 8 for Mac

I just downloaded PSE 8 for Mac and my raw files no longer show as thumbnails. I can open them in Elements, but the image is blank in Bridge. These same images were fine in CS3 (PSE 6 for Mac). I have downloaded and installed the new Camera Raw 5.6 plug-in but that didn't work. Any suggestions? Thank you!

You have to update bridge separately from PSE, and bridge ships with a pretty old version of ACR. Just go to Help>Updates in bridge and it will update itself for you.

Follow these instructions to uninstall MacKeeper. They have been tested with the most recent version of MacKeeper (v 2.8). Earlier versions than the one released in 2012 require more extensive work to uninstall all its components.
The effects of having actually used MacKeeper to do anything are a completely different matter. The fastest way to take an exquisitely designed and painstakingly engineered Mac and make it run like a steaming pile of dung is to install and use such ill-conceived "cleaning" or "security" products. This is just one example of a broad category of time- and money-wasters capable of causing damage that can only be rectified by reinstalling OS X, restoring from a backup, or completely erasing your system and rebuilding it from the ground up. Never install such junk on a Mac.
If you used MacKeeper to encrypt any files or folders, use MacKeeper to un-encrypt them first.
Quit the MacKeeper app if it is running.
Open your Applications folder: Using the Finder's Go menu, select Applications.
Drag the MacKeeper icon from your Applications folder (not the Dock) to the Trash.
You will be asked to authenticate (twice):
You do not need to provide a reason for uninstalling it:
Just click the Uninstall MacKeeper button. You will be asked to authenticate again.
After it uninstalls you may empty the Trash and restart your Mac. All that will remain is an inert log file that does nothing but occupy space on your hard disk.

Is there a way to download PAGES 4 for MAC OS? Pages 5 is missing too many features I need!

Is there any way to get the prior version of Pages (4x) for MAC? So many critical features are missing now I cannot use Pages any longer unless I can get the old version?
Mike

With Mavericks the answer is maybe. It really depends on whether they ship a disc with Pages 4.0 or Pages 4.3. It is hard to figure out which one is the one that you will actually receive. If you have a virtual machine and purchased these from the Mac App store then if you run Mountain Lion you should be able to download them again on that system. This is the method I used to re-install.
I'm lucky in that I have the retail version of iWork 09. I re-installed it using the following method.
1. Reinstall from DVD. This installed a version that is too out of date to run on Mavericks so I had to do step 2.
2. Ran a virtual machine with Mountain Lion, installed iWork 09, ran software update and copied the latest versions over to my main machine. This works and now I have iWork 09 back on my machine. Hopefully Apple can fix this latest iWork and bring it back to feature parity with iWork 09.

Problem selecting text in PDF created by MS Word for Mac 2011

I'm viewing PDFs in Adobe Digital Editions 4.0, and when I try to select text, the text that actually gets selected is 1-2 lines BELOW where the cursor (I-bar) is located. This makes highlighting text extremely difficult. This only seems to happen with PDFs that were created in MS Word for Mac 2011 and viewed in Adobe Digital Editions.
If I try opening the very same PDF file in Adobe Reader, the cursor highlights text just fine. If I open it in Preview, it works fine too. It just won't work when viewing the PDF in Adobe Digital Editions.
System: Mac OS 10.10 Yosemite
I have not been able to find any info on this issue anywhere, and if anyone knows a fix or workaround, I would greatly appreciate the help.

Thanks; this last reply came closest to 'solving' the issue. While I selected font sub, it at first had no affect on the document.
I then went back to prefs and set the compatability dropdown from 'Custom' (where it had defaulted) to 'Word 2004-2007', assuming these docs were created from a recent past Windows.
I 'Saved As' a Word for Mac " .docm "
Whoa... the extensions mean something. Your original problem (document shows bold, italic, underline, but tables and other complex formatting are lost) sounds as though the document was being exported as a .RTF, a Rich Text Format file. If you save as a .DOCM, that's a Word Macro Enabled Document. Regular Word 2007, 2008, 2010 and 2011 docs are .DOCX. Regular Word 97 through 2004 docs are .DOC. You need to save that document as a .DOCX or a .DOC or you're gonna have problems later.
- and the documents appear normal (though I had to switch one to 'Portrait' as it for some reason wanted to display in landsacpe.
Normally you'd have to select page orientation.
So, poor testing on my part. I have no idea which of the above steps fixed it but I'm guessing the 'Save As' to my version of Word.
If so, it would appear the 'Compatability' feature was not working at least on these two documents.
Word's compatibility feature is supposed to ensure that a document you produce is compatible with the target version of Word. If you turn the compatibility stuff on then you will be warned if you are using Word 2007 through 2011 and you use a feature that earlier versions of Word do not have. Microsoft shipped a translator which works with Office 2003 and 2004 and which allows Word 2003 or 2004 to read Word 2007, 2008, 2010, or 2011 documents (.DOCX) and to save them as Word 97 through 2004 documents (.DOC) _as long as they don't have any incompatible features_. Word's compatibility features doesn't do much for .RTFs or for .DOCMs.

PSE8 for Mac: Convert to DNG in Bridge Photo Downloader fails

Using PSE8 for Mac. When I get RAW photos from Bridge and specify "Convert to DNG" in the advanced options of the Photo Downloader, the RAW files download but the conversion to DNG fails for every image. I can successfully convert using the standalone DNG Converter, but I would like to use the option in the Photo Downloader that comes with Bridge. I'm in touch with Adobe Support on this but not having a lot of luck. Has anyone had this problem or know what to do?
Also, I cannot see the RAW images either in the Photo Downloader or in Bridge. They show up as blue squares with a flower graphic on them in the Downloader, and as white squares in Bridge. I can only see images once I open them in Elements. Is this normal?

Also, I cannot see the RAW images either in the Photo Downloader or in Bridge.
This is the source of your problem. You need to update the raw converter in bridge, which ships with a very old version (5.0). In bridge, go to help>updates and let it do its thing.

Photoshop Elements 4.0 for Mac now available

I use and love iPhoto but require greater editing capability. I downloaded and installed the Photoshop Elements 3.0 30-day trial (my trial just ran out). I was waiting for Elements 4.0 to come out for Mac, and noticed it is now out and available from Amazon.com for $10 off ($79.99) and free shipping.

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction Barbara. This fixed the problem I was having with getting the 'How To's' to work.

Why no Acrobat Pro 9 trial versions for Mac

I received my upgrade box for CS5 and the instructions said to delete (uninstall) Acrobat Pro 9 and then re-install it from the included disk. No big deal, I installed CS5 then uninstalled Acrobat as instructed, popped in the DVD of the new Acrobat Pro 9 that came in the box and up pops a message that every Mac users knows asking what I'd like to name the blank DVD and if I would like to mount it? That means the DVD is bank and never been burned. Confused I put it in my laptop with the same result! It was a blank DVD from Adobe!
Looking at the back of the disk it was clear it had never been burned to, you can tell when a disk has an image on it or not.
So thinking I'm clever I go to the download site to download a trail version of Acrobat Pro 9 thinking I could install it and when the question comes up to use it in trial mode to enter a serial number I could just enter the number and be done with it.
So I followed the procedure and waited for the emailed link to tell me where to get my download from, 10 minutes later it showed up, I followed the link and the pull down option only showed 4 versions to download, all for Windows! I searched and searched and could not find a Mac version anywhere.
Today I was able to get customer service on the phone who was glad to ship me another copy, they at firs suggested I just download the demo (just like I tried the night before) and I told them I could not get a link for the Mac. She put me on hold, then came back to the phone apologizing and telling me I was correct, there is no trial or download version of Acrobat Pro 9 for the Mac. I would have to wait for the replacement DVD.
So to me the question is I would have a hard time believing there are more Acrobat Pro 9 versions on PC's than on Macs even though there are so many more PC users. I've never met a single Acrobat Pro user on a PC and I work in IT/MIS at several very large companies. Only the Mac people ever seem to want the pro version, sometimes a few PC users in Marketing or legal want the Regular Acrobat but not the Pro version.
So Adobe why no Acrobat Pro downloads or trials for Mac users? Seems the long standing good relationship between Mac users and Adobe continues to be neglected and diminished. This is hardly the only item I've come across in the last few years where Adobe treats Mac users like secondhand users.

What extra work! two, three lines of extra code (may just one) to put a time limit in, that can be overridden with entering a bought serial number. Even shareware peopel do it.
And I remeber when Acrobat only worked on Mac's. You see it was introduced to Mac's first. Microsoft wouldn't allow it until version 3 or 4. If I still had my 7100/66 I might could prove was I one of the beta Testers. But that machine was traded in on the G4-500 (which I still own).
Most major software companies will come out with a new application on the Mac first. Because Mac users tend tobe willing to try out something new on the cutting edge. Then when its prefected they come out with a PC version, and forget about the Mac community.
Look I am 61. And I didn't just fall off the turnip truck yesterday. I've been around since before the days of the moden internet. I started with Buliten Boards on 300 baud modem on an old fashion POTS line. Cost me a fortune in Phonebills
So don't discount my experiences so lightly. I've used appliactions such as ATM Aldus PageMaker (yes you heard right Aldus). I've use Word Perfect for Mac and PC back when it was owned by WordPefect, then Novell) I've use Microsoft works when it came out for the SE/30. Lotus 1-2-3 both on Mac and PC, FaxSTF, and other that are now none existent on the Mac. Chance are I was using Computers about the same as some of you and probabaly earlier than some. I lived it.

Advice on upgrading to SSD for Mac Pro (optimized for AfterEffects & Photoshop)

Hello,
I'm an animator (I use AfterEffects CS5, but will be upgrading to CC soon) and I'm going to start work on a new AE project in a few months for an animated film that will be very demanding (lots of different shots -- meaning multiple projects, all of which will also incorporate large HD stock footage elements as well as multiple layers of art created in Photoshop).
So I'm looking to upgrade my current desktop Mac Pro (a 2010 2x2.66GHz 6-Core Intel Xeon) with SSD drives (and possibly a new graphics card) in order to speed up my system and optimize it for both AfterEffects and Photoshop. (In the past I've created projects using external 7200 RPM hard drives connected via eSATA). I've also decided, for now, not to purchase the new Mac Pro, but rather try and make a smaller investment to speed up my current system.
I'd love any advice that pro users would have that have made similiar upgrades, both in terms of the best equipment (SSD drives and graphics card) and the best way to set up AfterEffects/Photoshop projects using these SSDs.
For example:
1. Should I be purchasing 1 or 2 SSDs, and how should I be using these drives to optimize my system for AfterEffects and Photoshop?
2. Should I install my operating system (I'm on OS 10.8.5 but plan to upgrade to Mavericks when I upgrade to CC) on one separate SSD, and then install my Adobe applications on a 2nd SSD, or can I put both the operating system and applications on a single SSD? And should I be saving my projects on a SSD (if so, which one, if I'm supposed to purchase 2?
3. Should I assign a 2nd SSD as a scratch disk for AfterEffects or Photoshop?
4. I plan on using my current external hard drives (a 12 TB RAID array connected via eSATA) to store the footage and Photoshop elements being used in my AE projects (these files will be multiple GBs, and I can't afford to purchase SSD drives to hold these elements on) and also to store the renders from AfterEffects (which will also be very large files). Is this OK, or will this slow me down and negate whatever speed I've gained from moving to SSDs?
5. In researching how to switch over to SSD, I've considered purchasing 1 or 2 SSD drives. The one I'm currently looking at is called the Murcury Accelsior_E2, a PCI Express SSD sold via OWC. It comes in a few different sizes (120 GBs, 240 GBs, 480 GBs, 960 GBs). Just wondering if this is a good purchase -- the reviews seem to be very positive:
http://eshop.macsales.com/item/OWC/SSDPHWE2R960/
6. I'm also considering upgrading my current graphics card (ATI Radeon HD 5870) to the NVIDIA Quatro 4000 or NVIDIA Quatro 5000, but I'm wondering how much of a speed boost this would give me.
Here's an overview of my current system:
Computer: 2010 Mac Pro with 2x 2.66 GHz 6-Core Intel Xeon
Memory: 64 GB DDR3 ECC
Graphics Card: ATI Radeon HD 5870
Hard Drives (Internal): 2x 2TB Hitachi HD
Hard Drives (External): 12TB OWC Mercury Elite Pro RAID drive array (connected via eSATA)
Apologies in advance for the long message, but I've always recieved great advice from these message boards and I'd appreciate any help!
Thanks,
Dan

Thanks so much for jumping back into the discussion, The hatter! I had some earlier questions from before that I was hoping you could answer:
Currently I own a 12 TB OWC Mercury Elite Pro RAID drive array (connected via eSATA) which I use to save projects, project files, and renders. So (unless I am mistaken) you're recommending that I continue to use this RAID array to save projects, project files, and renders.
(I was looking into purchasing a Mercury Accelsior_E2 for my SSD via PCI -- it has eSATA, so I can continue to connect my RAID array)
Then I would use my new SSD via SATA II for my system, apps, and OS (minus home folder media files, data, documents) and my SSD via PCI for scratch disks for Photoshop/AfterEffects.
Currently I have 2 x 2 TB internal hard drives, which have all my OS + home folder media files.
Can I get more details in terms of the step-by-step instructions when it's time to install/clone? Here's how it looks to me (apologies if I have this out-of-order, and feel free to correct me if I've missed a step or have it wrong -- thank you in advance!):
1. Purchase SSDs (via PCI and internal SATA II) and install them inside my Mac Pro.
(Is there any formatting I need to do at this point to the SSDs once they are all plugged in...?)
2. Install TRIM Enabler
(Once it's installed, what do I do with TRIM Enabler? Is it an app that runs 24/7 in the background, or is it an app that I need to launch on a regular basis and perform commands on the SSDs...? Very confused on what TRIM Enabler does.)
3. Use CCC to clone system from old internal hard drive to new internal SSD drive. When using CCC, deselect media folders in home account before cloning (so I am NOT cloning media folders from old hard drive to new SSD drive).
(What specific media folders should I be deselecting? I'd like to keep my music, movies, iPhoto/Lightroom files, and email archive where they are now -- on the 2 x 2TB internal drives that shipped with my Mac Pro. Is there a link that provides more info on this process? Never used CCC before but I assume it's not too hard to use...?)
4. CCC clones system gets 'cloned' (minus the media folders) to the SSD that is installed via SATA II in empty internal drive bay inside Mac Pro.
5. Repair the SSD with DU after cloning and before using and booting from SSD.
(What is DU? How does it work? Not familiar with DU...?)
6. Reboot computer from system running on SSD.
7. Open Photoshop/AfterEffects (now running from SSD) and assign new scratch disk (the SSDs on PCIe SSD controller).
8. After 100% sure that system + apps that have been cloned is working via SSD, delete ONLY system and apps from old hard drive (but do not delete media files).
(Now that my system is on a separate SSD drive, when I do things like purchase new music from iTunes, will it get downloaded to the old location (my old hard drive with all my media)? In other words, are there steps I have to perform in order to relink my media folders now that they're on a separate drive?
Thanks,
Dan
