No PPD in Vista?  Need help

I upgraded to Vista inbetween press runs.. I am also using Illustrator CS4 now.
Anyhow, my print house supplies a PPD file to use with Postscript. Well the Postscript winsteg.exe file was a no-go in Vista. So after a little looking around Google it seems that the operating system has it build in?
So I tried to manually add this PPD file that my print house wants me to use. I can only select INF files. I don't have the time or knowledge at the moment to figure all that out....
So I used to Print out of illustrator with the print house PPD file and then drag all my files into distiller from there and that would create my flattened PDFs.
I'm not too knowledgable on PDF creation.. always wanted to figure it out completely but never have the time (deadlines!).
So can someone help me on what to do. I will have 24 files that need to be press ready! I do have the new Acrobat from CS4 suite also if that helps.
My deadline is in a couple hours!

Ask if the print house has PDF job options. You can then copy that into the correct pdf folder (do a search to find it) and use that to print to PDF.

  • Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 crashing in Windows Vista - Need help

    Hi,
    I have installed Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 in my system which has OS Windows Vista with SP1 and everytime I open a pdf using my newly installed adobe acrobat it crashes.
    The general trend it after 10 seconds from opening that pdf file, it just automatically closes itself. I checked the system process and didn't see the adobe process running after it closed itself. So I feel it just crashes for some unknown reason.
    I have 1440 X 900 resolution. Don't know if that can be a problem, but I have tried reducing the resolution too but with no help.
    Can anyone help me solve this problem.

    Since this is a USER TO USER forum, not Adobe support, and as the
    only way another user could reply is if they had that exact problem
    and also had a solution, you may need to contact Adobe for help

  • New Laptop w Vista - Need help transfering Palm and other software to Vista

    I got a new laptop that runs Vista. My Palm TX has been the Palm and all other software fine on my Windows XP desktop computer.
    How do I move all my Palm info over to the laptop without starting a lot of problems.
    Will I still be able to sync my Palm on both my desktop Windows XP and my Vista laptop?????
    Can someone please give me a step by step guide for this procedure:
    Thanks for the help and advoe

    To sync on your new 32-bit desktop you will need to download the Vista-compatible Palm Desktop 6.2.
    You will also need to install Documents To Go v.10 on the new desktop as well...should be fine with Vista.  From what I've seen of Beyond Contacts, you will need to upgrade to 3.0083 to gain Vista support.  I don't know if that's a paid upgrade or not.
    If any of your other third-party apps also have a desktop component or install a conduit for synchronization, you'll need to check with each of them to verify compatibility with Vista and Palm Desktop 6.2.
    When you connect to the new computer for the first time after you install Palm Desktop software, just select the TX's current Hotsync ID to sync with, and the data on the TX should automatically migrate into your new installation.  But it's always best to be safe rather than sorry.  Get a copy of NVBackup (google and download from any legit source such as www.palmgear.com ), and run a complete backup onto a SD card.  That way, you'll be minutes away from a full Restore if anything does happen in the transition.
    Lastly, if you plan to sync with your two computers, you will need to be careful and only use one of them for full 2-way synchronization, and use the other purely as a clone to hold a copy of the data on the handheld, using Handheld Overwrites Desktop conduit settings on that second computer.  Otherwise data corruption is sure to result.  This Palm Knowledgebase Article discusses how to Hotsync one device on two different desktops:

  • Problem using Java under Vista - Need help, please

    Hi everybody, I'm looking after a solution to resolve following problem : for one of my customer who's needing to use a secure access to a HTTPS URL, after Java is started, I receive the Java logo but it must be followed by an authentification screen where it's needed to enter a login + password. Sometimes it work (I think only when I force to reload the HTTPS certificate) but each time, the application freeze on this screen that I can see in the Task Bar but I can only close it and impossible to access it for the next step of the process. It's working on an original Windows Vista Home Premium pre-installed on a Sony Vaio Laptop and I've already use the application on another computer with Vista Business without any problem. Thanks in advance.

    Thanks for your answer. I've just tried on my XP Laptop. Here are the steps : after several windows, the Java start into a blank window and I receive then the logo at the left side of the window. After, in this case I'm asked to accept the HTTPS certificate and remember it if I want. When accepted, I receive then new "little" window (like a dialof box) with "Authentifaction request" when I need to enter again a login + password. If I recieve this last window, it mean that all is going fine but in my "problem" case, after the Java window, I see only this authentification request onthe task bar but no way to open it or to see it on the screen but no error message except ont the java window (no answer). Perhaps one more information, indication, it appaers "Oracle Application Server Forms Services" into the title bar.

  • New 30gig and Windows Vista, need help!

    My wife bought me a 30gig for father's day and I can't get it to work. I have a dell laptop with vista and I have tried numerous things. When I plug the ipod in, the computer has no rpoblem recognizing it at all. So once I'm in Itunes it starts to sync, but it gets to 300 or so songs copied and just stops, locks everything up, including internet, itunes, ipod, everything.....I've looked many times to make sure it wasn't the same song everytime and its not, I've downloaded Itunes 2 or 3 times, I've downloaded the latest updates (vista requires version 7.0 or greater), I've tried all of the USB ports (sides and back) and nothing seems to work. I've also downloaded the latest vista updates to no avail. It seems as though a lot of people that have vista are having the same problems, can anyone help???

    I am faced with this same exact problem, however, I was able to update my iPod ONCE, when my computer didn't freeze, but since then it has continued to lock up. Oddly though, after I was able to update my iPod, only iTunes locks up, so I am still able to listen to the song I had started playing, move the mouse around and attempt to switch to other programs, which doesn't always work.
    I've heard that turning your iPod off in the process of connecting it (Center+Menu) can help, but it hasn't fixed my issue, so could someone please help us out here?

  • Need help installing my graphics driver in windows vista via boot camp

    New to mac so first time on forum as well.
    Love the Mac but i also want to get on some old games. C&C The First Decade mainly.
    I am currently using below.
    Mac mini Mid 2011 processor 2.5 GHz Intel Core it
    Memory 4 GB 1333 Mhz DDR3
    Graphics AMD Radeon HD 6630M 256 MB
    Software Mac OS X Lion 10.7.5
    Installing windows vista home premium 32 bit
    I have installed windows vista home premium using boot camp assistant and downloaded the windows drivers as well. After i have installed windows i installed boot camp using my Mac OS X snow leopard which installed boot camp 3 or 3.1 i believe and i eventually got apple updates for 3.2 which is what i am now runnning on vista. I had trouble getting my sound to play through my speakers at first but eventually got them working and now it is my graphics driver that i cannot seem to get working. In vista(I also downloaded service pack 1 and 2) when i go to control panel and check out my device control it shows a yellow exclamation point next to the adapter. I guess i need help in getting my graphics installed correctly on my windows. Is there something i should take off to install the correct driver? Or do i just need the correct driver download? If i have the correct driver how do i upload it onto my windows side in the device control.
    When i try to run c&c generals/zero hour i get a directx 8.1 error, red alert 2 is black but i can hear. i know these games can work i installed the graphics correctly the first time when i did not have sound as this is my second time installing windows so the game did load when i did not have sound.
    Advise?
    I was thinking about saying forget this i can't waste hours of my time anymore but i have to be close to getting everything working if i had graphics before and no sound but sound this time and no graphics. I was also thinking about just buying windows 7 home premium sp1 64bit system builder dvd off amazon and reinstalling windows using windows 7 but i want to make sure i can play these games before i spend the money. I thought my mini couldn't support windows vista and if it did only boot camp 4? how am i getting this far to get things to work?
    What is the driver i need to install to get these games working? What do I need to do or what am I missing???
    Do i need to install a different boot camp off apple and find a driver that will get mine to work in vista?
    Any and all responses will be greatly appreciated i have been at this everyday for hours.

    Also is there something, say maybe a driver, that was installed i do not need that is blocking me from installing the correct drivers? What driver in my boot camp folder do i need to install to get to the correct display to run those games.

  • RSI Issue: Need help on IBM/Lenovo external keyboards w Trackpoint? Pic

    Need help on IBM/Lenovo external keyboards w Trackpoint? Pic
    I started my journey with Thinkpads on a T42, then T43.. then T61, X61T, R61 & T410 (bought for 2 cousins & they love it), W510 (dads new laptop). I may be a much recent convert but I swear by them now. 
    MAJOR ISSUE: Recently started feeling RSI (Repetitive Stress) & Carpal Tunnel symptoms (already doing stretches.. adjusted the desk.. & finding new adjustable LCD stand) since I am not using the Thinkpad directly... but using it docked with an External keyboard. Lot of Mousing as well. I'd like to go back to Thinkpad FEEL... or atleast have keyboard with a pointing device so my hands dont have to keep moving back n forth. 
    So, it would be great it some of my fellow T4x/T6x/X6x 'ers would guide me a bit on this... share their first hand experience, or what they've seen on these keyboards and feel free to point me to reliable sources of information. 
    Currently this would greatly be use with T61 - Adv Mini Dock - 30" XHD3000 LCD as shown in my signature below. 
    Anyone who has used or know something about one of these Thinkpad related keyboard (ideally both of these to give a comparative response). 
    Which of the following have you used? 
    How was the experience? 
    (Maybe point me to thread with peoples experiences)
    If you've used several, which one do you prefer / recommend? Why? 
    At the moment I have a "slim" BTC 6200C desktop keyboard. It has laptop like scissor keyswitches, so I like it the slim notebook like profile. 
    The way I have positioned my 30" LCD I'd like to be able to keep the keyboard on my lap at times while on my chair and maybe on the desk at times.

    Everything went away when I changed to a USB keyboard with the Ultra nav (I use the track point and disable the pad).
    I've been working like that for 6+ years now... no issues.

    *Description of Issue:* When playing 3D video games (i.e. Mass Effect 2 or Dragon Age) everything visually is fine for about 20 seconds and then I start to see pixelization (snow), texture anomalies and system freezes where mouse stops moving. It gives time slices occasionally so sometimes I can Alt + tab out of game and close it. Or the entire system just crashes. I think what is going on is some loop that is pegging either the CPU(s) or GPU.
    Everything was working fine up until last night. I had been playing the games without issue. I am playing these games on Windows XP and Vista using Boot Camp.
    This initially occurred on Windows XP playing Mass Effect 2.
    These are the steps I took which essentially tell me it is not a software issue:
    - Tested on another game Dragon Age (same result)
    - Updated to latest Nvidia drivers (same result)
    - Tested on separate Boot Camp Windows Vista with Dragon Age game (same result)
    These results lead me to believe I may have a broken graphics card? But I want to be certain before I go out and purchase a new one.
    *My Questions:*
    - Is there some software to verify if my graphics card is shotty?
    - Is re-seating the graphics card or memory worth trying?
    - Cleaning the dust out of my machine?
    - If I need a new graphics card, what are my options? Do I have to purchase it via Apple store? I would like to stick with an Nvidia card so am I stuck buying the same card I currently have or can I upgrade?
    If anyone can help me I would greatly appreciate it.
    Thank you,
    Leapstepman

    Is there some software to verify if my graphics card is shotty?
    Techtool Pro has some testing, the AHT tests VRAM, but game benchmarks and stressing will tell you the most.
    Is re-seating the graphics card or memory worth trying?
    Absolutely. Just don't reinstall the graphics card until you clean it thoroughly.
    Cleaning the dust out of my machine?
    YES. A dust filled graphics card heatsink will cause the GPU to cook, and cause problems thet you describe.
    If I need a new graphics card, what are my options? Do I have to purchase it via Apple store? I would like to stick with an Nvidia card so am I stuck buying the same card I currently have or can I upgrade?
    You don't have to buy from Apple, but using with OS X limits your choices to Mac compatible or flashable PC versions.

  • Need Help existing Crystal 8.5 to Ver.11 Install and SmartViewerActiveX.asp

    How to get my reports working, required Install onto Server? Version Changes to Code?
    Like other developers I am trying to reconfigure an existing solution / application that uses Crystal Reports 8.5 & RDC to call and display reports now moving to Crystal Reports XI =Ver.11.   Here is an almost identical issue that I have used for the basis of my question.
    Link: [ CRViewer - Crystal 8.5 VS. Crystal 11|http://www.tek-tips.com/viewthread.cfm?qid=1505100&page=6|From www.tek-tips.com]
    Just like the linked site's questions for the reports, our ActiveX viewer is called from within the ASP code  SmartViewerActiveX.asp from Ver 8.5, we now have Crystal Reports XI = Ver.11 Developer.
    However I am not sure that the other site was clear with the procedure for deployment and setup and that's why I am seeking help with the Crystal Reports we have in our projects.
    Do I install Crystal Reports XI Developer onto the Server to get the VIEWER?
    What configuration is required so that the NEW Ver. 11 viewer works with 8.5?
    What code changes are required to use a new Activex Viewer object?
    I have legacy Crystal Reports solution using 8.5 and moving to Crystal Ver. 11.  Need help with clear requirements for what is required and how to install the required components to the WEB SERVER / IIS Server.  Using "Unmanaged" Reports with Crystal Dev. Edition Ver. 8.5 to Ver. 11.  Currently 8.5 is not working I suspect due to the viewer not being installed to the server.
    CODE LINE from my SmartViewerActiveX.asp in my IIS server.....
    "/viewer9/activeXViewer/activexviewer.cab#Version=9,2,0,442"
    I have not found a virtual folder reference to a folder that contains, /viewer9/activeXViewer/activexviewer.cab on the IIS server.  Keep in mind this is a NEW server with many of the application solutions copied to it without complete migration steps and possibly missing installation steps such as Crystal Reports Developer CD Ver.11.
    Below are the steps I had found at the LINK above, however I need validation if this is the correct steps and clarification of the steps.  This will eventually be going onto a PRODUCTION server and I need to minimize the possibility of killing other apps and potentially the server.  (Windows 2003 Server, with Mainly VISTA and Win 7 clients via IE. 8 to present version.) 
    From: (http://www.tek-tips.com/viewthread.cfm?qid=1505100&page=6)
    NEED MORE DETAILS
    1. Install CR11 developer to server
    2.  Setup Virtual Path within IIS for ActiveX component
       C:\program files\common........\Busines objects\3.0\CrystalReportsViewers11\activexcontrols
    3. Check registry to get classid for activex control
    hkey_classes_root
      Crystalreports.activexreportviewer
      CLSID
      CurVer
    4. Change code to use new activex control page:  Smartvieweractivex.asp
    5. migrate reports from Crystal Reports 8.5 to 11
    6. run application and open report using CR11 viewer
    Help would be greatly appreciated!
    Thanks.

    Thanks for ALL your feedback! 
    Still not there yet with a solution or option from the last reply....
    I tried to be as brief as possible, however it appears that there are MANY issues surrounding Crystal Reports in General let alone the versions and applications that had been developed and very little straight forward information on how to migrate/move and use existing applications on NEW servers (NOTE: Old CR 8.5 is running in a newer environment as it had been developed at the Company that had previously owned us.).
    I am trying to get the application that is OLD re-deployed into a new company, with old data, old reports, just to make the existing solution work.   Crystal Reports Ver. 11 was brought into the mix when a copy of Crystal 8.5 could not be purchased by our new company.  Right after purchase of Ver.11, I was able to get the original 8.5 DEV CD and License from our old company.
    Q: 1)  "/viewer9/activeXViewer/activexviewer.cab#Version=9,2,0,442"
    A: This is what is on the server that the Crystal Reports 8.5 solution is running on in the server environment that it currently is running and working in.  PROBLEM.. The Our Comapny is no longer part of the other Company... They have theirs running without issue with Crystal 8.5 Reports, and the command line listed above on their IIS server... This is what was given to me to migrate into our NEW Company environment.
    Q: 2) CR 11 is rather undefined... There is CR XI Release 1 (11.0)
    A: APPEARS that I have CR XI Release 1 (11.0)  - HELP ABOUT SHOWS 11.0.0.1282
    Q: How do you get the app on your server? Use the RDC merge modules and create a setup or an MSI.  
    Not sure what, "...Use the RDC merge modules and create a setup or an MSI..." involves??
    Why Can't I just install this using the CR Dev. CD.?  The Product was purchased with 2 Licenses.
    I also have the OLD Crystal Reports Developer Ver. 8.5 CD that could be used to re-deploy the viewers.
    Q: Did you realize that the RDC is retired in CR 11.5?... ETC..
    A:  Yes, again why cant the existing solution of Crystal Reports 8.5 RPT files be used on the IIS server being called via Crystal Reports 8.5 Viewers...  I have access to the original 8.5 CD,.. Again not sure how to deploy the VIEWERS part to the server..
    Trying to get the simplest solution to have the existing 8.5 Reports, running from the IIS Web Server using the ActiveX viewer and URL Calls...
    ALL HELP IS WELCOME!
    Thanks

  • Need Help to re-download my Photoshop Elements 12+Premiere Elements 12 to a new laptop Win-8 64-bit

    When I purchased the special deal of Photoshop Elements 12+Premiere Elements 12, I owned a Windows Vista (32-bit) laptop. When I downloaded my purchase, all went smoothly, no problems w/Photoshop when I used the mouse's wheel-scroll feature, it helped me zoom in to specifically pinpoint areas in pictures t/b fixed, etc.
    I now have a NEW laptop ... Windows 8 (64-bit). I re-downloaded my Photoshop Elements 12+Premiere Elements 12 onto my new one. Options to download the Premiere Elements showed I should use the "bottom" option to download for Win-8/64-bit - did that w/no problem. There were NO OPTIONS showing that the Photoshop Elements 12 had to ALSO be using a specific way to be downloaded? Consequently, I think (?), the problem that I'm having in using the mouse's wheel-scrolling feature may have been affected by using the "normal" format to download???
    So here's my question:  Because I bought this combined deal, should I have ALSO used the bottom option showing installation for 64-bit Premiere Elements 12??? I WOULD APPRECIATE A TIMELY RESPONSE - NEED HELP ON GETTING MY PHOTOSHOP WORKING PROPERLY, NOW!
    Thank you in advance for any help/suggestions that can resolve my frustrating experience on this!

    Oops!!!! I accidentally found my answer within my Photoshop Elements 12 "Preferences" folder! Only one part of my question remains --- what about how to download it as a 64-bit option, or does it matter at all?
    Sorry to have panicked about this, but when I started using it, the cursor movements seemed unstable so I thought it was because of downloading for a 32-bit instead of my current OS-64bit!
