No responce from Creative about BF2/Openal and what n

Ok, over the last few weeks a few of us have been really going hard to get EAX sounding better in BF2. Trying all kinds of things. With all the tips thrown around its seems that its working a hell of a lot better than before.
I for one get AWESOME EAX through out game now due to combined efforts of members here ( you know who you are, AWESOME JOB GUYS )
But why no responce from creative? Some input on what we are doing would be nice from them. I dont mean blow sun shine up our .......... but anything to show us that they are working on a simple fix other than all the work we need to do to get it sounding better.
You know Creative, we are not that bad, ( your customers ) we dont bite and you can join in , after all it is your site

Well, I have to agree that I like Creative's Support Team.
4 years ago, I bought a faulty GeForce 2MX from a shop in my country which was having sales because it was closing. It appears, the bargain was not that much of a bargain, as the graphics card was faulty. The red signal was missing form the output. So I tried to contact the shop by they never replied. Then I contacted Creative. At first the guys there didn't take me seriously and told me to try different driver settings and etc. But I am no novice and even the BIOS boot screen was messed, so no driver could save this card.
So I made a post in the forums, complaining about support telling me to visit tomshardware.com to find a solution, a moderator sees it and within a day the Support Manager of the European region telephoned me. I received a replacement 2 days later, BEFORE I got the RMA number for the faulty card!
I know we complain about driver updates etc... But even Li've! users have XP drivers and applications! The poor guys that had Aureal cards, then Cirrus CS4630 (which is much newer than EMU0K) and ESS Canyon3D don't! (Or they are MSs drivers, without anything fancy in them).
Well, the best thing we could wish to have here, is having someone form Developer Relations keeping an eye of the forums. They are the only ones who can really help us here, not the moderators.

Hi Harvester,
I've been having this issue for a while, and I FINALLY got it to work. For what it's worth, here's what I did.
I was trying to send files from my laptop to my desktop and for some reason i saw that my desktop couldn't find my laptop. I went to the Sharing settings and saw that under my "Computer Name" there was nothing there. This may have happened due to my upgrade to Mavericks. Once I placed filled that info in, and restarted my laptop. Lo and behold, Creative Cloud and Growl started working side by side again
This may not be your issue, but I thought I'd pass it along.

There are no upgrades for student editions. You simply buy a fresh license at the discounted price.

I see lots of people asking questions about the "white screen" app store update failure. I see no answers from Apple about this...What is the problem, and what is the solution?

It's a problem that Apple is having with their App updating system. The best solution is to be patient, and wait for Apple to solve their systemic problem.

I just purchased MBP and it is my first Apple computer. How concerned should I be about virus software and what do you recommend for security software?

I just purchased MBP and it is my first Apple computer. How concerned should I be about virus software and what do you recommend for security software?

1. This comment applies to malicious software ("malware") that's installed unwittingly by the victim of a network attack. It does not apply to software, such as keystroke loggers, that may be installed deliberately by an intruder who has hands-on access to the victim's computer. That threat is in a different category, and there's no easy way to defend against it. If you have reason to suspect that you're the target of such an attack, you need expert help.
2. All versions of OS X since 10.6.7 have been able to detect known Mac malware in downloaded files, and to block insecure web plugins. This feature is transparent to the user, but internally Apple calls it "XProtect." The malware recognition database is automatically checked for updates once a day; however, you shouldn't rely on it, because the attackers are always at least a day ahead of the defenders.
The following caveats apply to XProtect:
It can be bypassed by some third-party networking software, such as BitTorrent clients and Java applets (see below.)
It only applies to software downloaded from the network. Software installed from a CD or other media is not checked.
3. Starting with OS X 10.7.5, there has been another layer of built-in malware protection, designated "Gatekeeper" by Apple. By default, applications and Installer packages downloaded from the network will only run if they're digitally signed by a developer with a certificate issued by Apple. Software certified in this way hasn't actually been tested by Apple (unless it comes from the Mac App Store), but you can be reasonably sure that it hasn't been modified by anyone other than the developer. His identity is known to Apple, so he could be held legally responsible if he distributed malware. For most practical purposes, applications recognized by Gatekeeper as signed can be considered safe.
Gatekeeper has, however, the same limitations as XProtect, and in addition the following:
It can easily be disabled or overridden by the user.
A malware attacker could get control of a code-signing certificate under false pretenses, or could find some other way to evade Apple's controls.
For more information about Gatekeeper, see this Apple Support article.
4. Beyond XProtect and Gatekeeper, there’s no benefit, in most cases, from any other automated protection against malware. The first and best line of defense is always your own intelligence. All known malware circulating on the Internet that affects a fully-updated installation of OS X 10.6 or later takes the form of so-called "trojan horses," which can only have an effect if the victim is duped into running them. The threat therefore amounts to a battle of wits between you and the malware attacker. If you're smarter than he thinks you are, you'll win.
That means, in practice, that you never use software that comes from an untrustworthy source. How do you know whether a source is trustworthy?
Any website that prompts you to install a “codec,” “plug-in,” "player," "extractor," or “certificate” that comes from that same site, or an unknown one, is untrustworthy.
A web operator who tells you that you have a “virus,” or that anything else is wrong with your computer, or that you have won a prize in a contest you never entered, is trying to commit a crime with you as the victim. (Some reputable websites did legitimately warn visitors who were infected with the "DNSChanger" malware. That exception to this rule no longer applies.)
Pirated copies or "cracks" of commercial software, no matter where they come from, are unsafe.
Software of any kind downloaded from a BitTorrent or from a Usenet binary newsgroup is unsafe.
Software with a corporate brand, such as Adobe Flash Player, must be downloaded directly from the developer’s website. If it comes from any other source, it's unsafe.
5. Java on the Web (not to be confused with JavaScript, to which it's not related, despite the similarity of the names) is a weak point in the security of any system. Java is, among other things, a platform for running complex applications in a web page, on the client. That was never a good idea, and Java's developers have had a lot of trouble implementing it without also creating a portal for malware to enter. Past Java exploits are the closest thing there has ever been to a Windows-style "virus" affecting OS X. Merely loading a page with malicious Java content could be harmful. Fortunately, Java on the Web is mostly extinct. Only a few outmoded sites still use it. Try to hasten the process of extinction by avoiding those sites, if you have a choice.
Java is not included in OS X 10.7 and later. Discrete Java installers are distributed by Apple and by Oracle (the developer of Java.) Don't use either one unless you need it. Most people don't. If Java is installed, disable it — not JavaScript — in your browsers. In Safari, this is done by unchecking the box marked Enable Java in the Security tab of the preferences dialog.
Regardless of version, experience has shown that Java on the Web can't be trusted. If you must use a Java applet for a specific task, enable Java only when needed for the task and disable it immediately when done. Close all other browser windows and tabs, and don't visit any other sites while Java is active. Never enable Java on a public web page that carries third-party advertising. Use it only on well-known, password-protected, secure websites without ads. In Safari 6 or later, you'll see a lock icon in the address bar with the abbreviation "https" when visiting a secure site.
Follow these guidelines, and you’ll be practically as safe from malware as you can be.
6. Never install any commercial "anti-virus" or "Internet security" products for the Mac, as they all do more harm than good, if they do any good at all. If you need to be able to detect Windows malware in your files, use the free software ClamXav — nothing else.
Why shouldn't you use commercial "anti-virus" products?
Their design is predicated on the nonexistent threat that malware may be injected at any time, anywhere in the file system. Malware is downloaded from the network; it doesn't materialize from nowhere.
In order to meet that nonexistent threat, the software modifies or duplicates low-level functions of the operating system, which is a waste of resources and a common cause of instability, bugs, and poor performance.
By modifying the operating system, the software itself may create weaknesses that could be exploited by malware attackers.
7. ClamXav doesn't have these drawbacks. That doesn't mean it's entirely safe. It may report email messages that have "phishing" links in the body, or Windows malware in attachments, as infected files, and offer to delete or move them. Doing so will corrupt the Mail database. The messages should be deleted from within the Mail application.
ClamXav is not needed, and should not be relied upon, for protection against OS X malware. It's useful only for detecting Windows malware. Windows malware can't harm you directly (unless, of course, you use Windows.) Just don't pass it on to anyone else.
A Windows malware attachment in email is usually easy to recognize. The file name will often be targeted at people who aren't very bright; for example:
♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥!!!!!!!H0TBABEZ4U!!!!!!!.AVI♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥.exe
ClamXav may be able to tell you which particular virus or trojan it is, but do you care? In practice, there's seldom a reason to use ClamXav unless a network administrator requires you to run an anti-virus application.
8. The greatest harm done by anti-virus software, in my opinion, is in its effect on human behavior. It does little or nothing to protect people from emerging threats, but they get a false sense of security from it, and then they may behave in ways that expose them to higher risk. Nothing can lessen the need for safe computing practices.
9. It seems to be a common belief that the built-in Application Firewall acts as a barrier to infection, or prevents malware from functioning. It does neither. It blocks inbound connections to certain network services you're running, such as file sharing. It's disabled by default and you should leave it that way if you're behind a router on a private home or office network. Activate it only when you're on an untrusted network, for instance a public Wi-Fi hotspot, where you don't want to provide services. Disable any services you don't use in the Sharing preference pane. All are disabled by default.

What is adobe illustrator message "This FXG is invalid, validate it before opening" and what to do?

Mike,
I have a Flash file from a client that is not animated but full of vector based art. I need to work on this art but prefer to do so in Illustrator. I just want to bring the vector art into Illustrator easily. Copy and paste does not work, Drag & Drop does not work, exporting does not work.
Why can we easily move art from Illustrator to Flash but not the other way around?

I have added more songs to my library. Half of the library has selected ticks but when I click on any of the others to select them the whole song disappears from the list. Why and what can I do to fix?

Hey Paul,
If I understand correctly, it sounds like iTunes is not grouping the songs from a particular CD together. The cause could be something as minor as a misspelling or slight variations. For more information, see the following resource:
Why aren't songs with the same album art grouped together?

I am trying to connect to apple support and it keeps asking me to put in the SN of my MAC and when i do it says that the SN is invalid I am putting in the SN from under about this mac and it is the same as the one one the bottom of the MAC any ideas ?

Did you purchase this product direct from Apple online, in an Apple Store, or through a third-party authorized reseller? Or did you buy it from an original owner whose Applecare plan was supposed to be transitioned to a new owner, by them?
Do you have an original shipping carton the unit arrived in?
If the product was a retail 'open carton' purchase and no
back-track is possible, contact the reseller.
And if the computer had seen a major service with logic
board replaced, etc, it may have other issues with serial
number vs one they may have assigned it. Usually a
new logic board may have the SN flashed or if a unit
was determined to be a reman, a new # assigned. But
that would appear in System Profiler, if officially reman.
If you registered a product anywhere with Apple, it would show on a web page along with its serial numbers, going back several years, at this page after you log in there.
https://getsupport.apple.com/GetproductgroupList.action
A blue text with triangle See all products and services opens an Apple ID
sign-in window, then the page changes to show your items & info about them.
If you run the serial number through online Lookup, what appears?

Not sure if this helps, 'your product' should appear - if registered.
Good luck & happy computing!

Blackberry Playbook Overheated but works fine, screen is dark from edges about 1 inch and the rest is a light color

Hi,
I woke up this morning and tried picking up my playbook but it was very hot and also still charging, then I took it off of charge and I let it cool down. The playbook turns on and functions fine, but the screen is dark from around the edges (about 1 inch) and then light from the inner side. Also I never took my playbook into the sun or any other hot place and I think my factory blackberry playbook charger might be at fault. I didn't get any notification or any other type of hint from my playbook that it was hot or overheated. My playbook was turned off when it was charging and my bedroom was cool because of my A/C and ceiling fan. I don't understand how this happened and how can I make the screen go back to normal, It has been about 1 hour now and nothing has changed about the screen.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

My Playbook is fine now, the screen is normal again and the charger was at fault, but charge your BB playbook when itis turned on because my playbook was off and overheated and this was overnight. Also I resolved the screen problem by leaving it in a cool room in my home, and the LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) crystals were probably just very hot and they had to cool down also the battery life is still the same . But the BB playbook is fine and works fast, also I still have all my files and every function work perfectly. I wrote this from the BB playbook.

IMac either or has been remotely accessed, has malicious code, is hacked and/or all of the aforementioned or something that I have not yet researched. With my health issues, my Mac keeps me from thinking about the pain and disability I have. Thank you.

Hello,
I'm giving it one more chance and then Mac goes into trash. My iMac is either remotely accessed, perhaps malicious code, hacked and/or all of the aforementioned. I am not savvy in these areas. Please read some of the many symptoms and if you can assist me -- I am beyond grateful. If you want to say it is my fault because I allowed somebody to use my computer or other nonsense please do not waste my time or yours. This is serious and has been going on for a period of time that is longer then I can remember!
I have a neighbor, lives in my apartment building, 'had' physical access to my iMac. Shortly after this I started to have problems that beyond any nightmare I have ever heard of - whether it be Windows or Apple! Please feel free to ask me any question(s) that might help me rid my iMac of this malicious act as the police have been useless -- say they do not have equipment to check my Mac. FBI can't b bothered.
It is more then clear that a person(s) has access and has messed up the OS, among other terrible things. He took over my Facebook account months ago, posted as though he was me. He also prevented me from getting back into FB and Yahoo to close those connected accounts. Went to an Apple store, under protection of their router and removed FB/Yahoo accounts. The pages that were showing at home turned out to be fake pages controlled by him. (Think they are called "defaced").
Anytime I did a 7X or zero out clean install -- he was there before I even hooked up the router!!!
It came to a point that I can no longer even get to the erase/Utility/install from my apartment so I took it to Apple more then once. Besides erase/install, I turned off ALL Sys Preferences that could alert him to Mac. The last time I received a gray Install CD and was told to take it out of the building and do another erase/install. There is no sense of going through this until I know if/how to get rid of him.
Also when I first sign on I ALWAYS get a 192.168.100.11. I do NOT have a router. I then go to System Preferences to Network and click "renew DHCP" several times before I get an IP addy! I am not savvy in this area but do feel that this is a major clue.
Passwords have been changed, master password is not something I can access which prevents me updating, etc., etc.
I will not bombard you with every detail as that would take several pages. I am beyond desperate. Will be happy to provide further details to serious responders only.
Thank you.

Heartfelt sympathy to the many family members, friends, people who loved Steve Jobs even though they never met him -- RIP Steve. You are missed.

If you really believe that your system has been compromised, here's what you do:
Disconnect your Mac from your cable modem;
Back up any documents on your system that are important to you;
Boot your Mac from the system installation disks that came with it (insert the disk, restart your Mac, and hold down the "c" key until you get the "spinning gear" icon);
Choose a language and click the arrow button to continue;
From the Utilities menu, choose Disk Utility;
In Disk Utility, select your computer's hard drive;
Click the "Erase" tab;
Click the "Security Options" button and select to have it overwrite all the data on the hard drive;
Click the "Erase" button and allow it to process;
Once the "erase process has completed (it will take a while), reinstall Mac OS X.
Or, if this is too much for you to accomplish on your own, take your system to an Apple Store and have them help you perform these steps. If your system was indeed compromised, this will remove any such hack. You can then set up a new user account for the computer, reinstall your applications (reinstall only from original disks or downloads from the company making the software) and documents, and reconnect to the Internet.
Note that when you reconnect to the cable modem, you may still get an IP address starting with 198. This is normal with some cable modems and probably not a cause for concern. It will not be an indication that your system is still compromised; that will not be possible if you perform all the above steps.
Regards.

I upgraded to Lion, Excel won't open, and what is "Solver" found in the "Launchpad"?

I upgraded to Lion last night, I have Mac OX X 10.7.1 and all other Microsoft Office products (Word & PowerPoint) work just fine, but within the "Launchpad" of Lion, there is an icon called "Solver). When I click on it, the Excel - icon opens up but the program does NOT, and something called "Solver" (found in the Launchpad) also opens up but immediately shuts down, showing an error. WTH???

From what you are describing it sounds like iTunes thinks the files are there, but they are missing or have been relocated. Use this article to locate the files.

WHAT BOTHERS YOU ABOUT YOUR NOKIA AND WHAT ...

I know all of you have something you would change/add to your phone. I would add a flash light app that comes included in the basic software. I am sick and tiered of someone pulling out a sonyericson and lighting up the darkness with their stupid flash light (camera flash stays on till you turn it off), while i keep focusing and getting ready for the 1 sec of light my flash gives. Another thing that i hate is the fact that all though nokia n95 (my phone) has an accelerometer like the iphone and so many other phones it does not have the application that allows you to simply tilt the phone and change the song, or instead of using keys in games simly tilt the phone, it would be so much more fun. Such an app exist but is takes so much damn effort to install it on your phone it's not worth the effort. in the latest n95 software (v.30) the app rotateme was included in the software and i realy hope they will include what i talked about earlier. These are some things that bother me about my phone and i am sure you have some things that bother you about yours, so please post whatever you would change/add to your nokia phone in this topic

i love my phone the way it is, also there is a light app called "strobe" that lets you control the flash light, from quick flashing to steady.

Hi RadarCat16,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I know it can be frustrating when you are waiting for content to download to your iPhone from the iTunes Store. There are a few steps I would recommend in this situation. Please read over and follow the steps in the attached article.
iTunes: How to resume interrupted iTunes Store downloads
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1725
If your download was interrupted using your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
From the Home screen, tap the iTunes app.
For iPhone or iPod touch, tap More > Downloads. For iPad, tap Downloads.
Enter your account name and password if prompted.
Tap the blue download arrow to resume.
If you can't complete the download on your iOS device, you can download it in iTunes on your Mac or PC and then sync it to your iOS device. You can also transfer purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer.
Have a great day,
Joe

Great news from Sony about XDCAM Softwares and Snow Leopard.

Received this infos from Sony today and have think you would like to know about-it :
"Sony is currently studying positively to offer a solution to support Snow Leopard with XDCAM Transfer ASAP (much earlier than the previously discussed March 2010).
And will update to the market of its revised schedule in a couple of weeks."
I got the go for it and post it from Sony a few minutes ago , have a nice day.

Yes XDCAM Transfer 2.11 and XDCAM Browser 2.6 are now available for Snow Leopard.
Only XDCAM EX is fully supported at this moment but optical XDCAM HD is planned March 2010.
