Now I need help from a REFINE EDGE expert please

Have figured out a few things with some great advice, now I'm in need of some guidance regarding the REFINE EDGE feature.
I have painstakingly selected with the magic wand tool the area in which I will be using ENHANCE>HUE/SATURATION for my sky. The object looks very well selected to be excluded except when zooming way in which I did after performing an initial hue/sat adjustment. All looked pretty good except that there is too much of the old sky pixel around the edges of the subject, just a little so the entire image looks a bit "photoshopped."
I was thinking the REFINE EDGE function would help with this. Is this correct? I have adjusted the controls pretty extensively in all directions numerous times and just not seeing results I was hoping I would get.
What should I be adjusting, numbers up or down, sliders right or left, which options on or off to get the edges of the new sky color to meet the edges of the subject without getting that fakey old edge?
Thanks ever so much.

Seems deselecting smart radius is helpful, why is that?

Although for Photoshop, this video demonstrates the use of 'Refine Edge' (from 3:00).

Need help from FileMaker Pro 8 users please??

Hi all,
I realise that this is probably the wrong place to post this, but I wasn't sure where else to put it.
I have a database file, it's a .fp7 file although I know for sure it was created in FileMaker Pro 8. I have opened it myself in FileMaker Pro 8 now, nd can only find tools for adding/editing/deleting/displaying/finding records. how can I go and edit tables, and view (and print) a list of tables including their fields' properties?
Thanks

This article is vague and unhelpful. My iTunes needs help from a pro.
I have over 120,000 songs -- NO movies, TV, radio, or books...
I have other programs which efficiently run things which are not audio-based.
So why can I not get iTunes working well?? It now takes at least 10 secs for any operation to be completed!
That is just plain evil. But I am sure I could do something to help.
All the music is on an 2T external drive.

TS1717 as noted in the thread title...
Brigancook, is the library database on the external or just the media? iTunes reevaluates smart playlists and rewrites its database after every action on the library. I've found this can make a library half that size, with a lot of smart playlists, quite sluggish. That said I'm aware part of my problem is aging hardware. Having the database on the internal drive may improve performance if it is currently on the external.
I'd expect to see an exponential relationship between size and response time which may explain what you see. Cutting down on the number of smart playlists might help. If we're really lucky the long awaited iTunes 11 might have streamlined some of the background processes as well as cleaning up the front end.

Hey wangyz_david,
Thanks for the question and detailed information. I understand that you are experiencing issues with your iPhone 5s in relation to battery life. The following website outlines some great tips for maximizing battery performance:
Apple - Batteries - Maximizing Performance
http://www.apple.com/batteries/maximizing-performance/
I also understand that you are interested in performing a recovery mode restore. You can find information regarding recovery mode here:
If you can't update or restore your iOS device
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808
Please keep in mind that restoring your backup may cause the issue to be restored as well. For the best isolation steps, you may wish to restore as new:

http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137
After erasing and setting up as a new device, your device is now in a factory configuration. Test to determine if erasing and setting up as a new device resolved the issue. Content on the device may have caused unexpected behavior.
If the issue is still present, you may want to contact Apple Support.

- If you previously turned on FIndMyiPod on the iPod in Settings>iCloud and wifi is on and connected go to iCloud: Find My iPhone, sign in and go to FIndMyiPhone. If the iPod has been restored it will never show up.

- You can also wipe/erase the iPod and have the iPod play a sound via iCloud.
- If not shown, then you will have to use the old fashioned way, like if you lost a wallet or purse.
- Change the passwords for all accounts used on the iPod and report to police
- There is no way to prevent someone from restoring the iPod (it erases it) using it unless you had iOS 7 on the device. With iOS 7, one has to enter the Apple ID and password to restore the device.

Hola scj2000-
Muchas gracias por visitar nuestro foro en búsqueda de una explicación al cargo que recién apareció en tu tarjeta de crédito.
Entiendo su preocupación, ya que cualquier cargo extraño que aparece en un estado de cuenta puede ser alarmante. En este caso, el último cargo que puede recuperar usando el correo electrónico que usaste para registrarte al foro, refleja que se renovó un antivirus Kaspersky. Esta autorización nos diste cuando realizaste la compra de tu Lenovo, desde entonces se renueva automáticamente la licencia de antivirus.
Las otras publicaciones que has leído, indican lo mismo. Un cargo que se ha hecho a la tarjeta de crédito que se presentó durante la compra con la autorización del cliente.
Lamento mucho la confusión y espero esto aclare tu duda.
Atentamente,

How to (make best) use external js library from html object (need help from dev)

Ok, on another discussion about rotating full screen backgrounds slideshows, i was orientated to try a small lib named "backstrech"
I throw myself in, and i really like what we can do with it.
To use it simply, just make an html object and paste this in :
<script src="http://musecdn2.businesscatalyst.com/scripts/4.0/jquery-1.8.3.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script src="assets/jquery.backstretch.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script>
$.backstretch([
      "http://dl.dropbox.com/u/515046/www/outside.jpg"
    , "http://dl.dropbox.com/u/515046/www/garfield-interior.jpg"
    , "http://dl.dropbox.com/u/515046/www/cheers.jpg"
], {duration: 3000, fade: 750});
</script>
then add the jquery.backstretch.min.js to your "downloaded files" (file menu > files to download)
And you’re done.
Now, i need some help from better developers.
As you can see, my first line is a call to jquery, the same that we find later in Muse exported code.
Reason 1 : without this line, jquery is not defined and the plugin won’t work.
This raises 2 issues :
- We load twice the same ressource which is useless (100k)
- loading js is all about having the page hangs while it loads, hence, they are put at the end of the body.
Does anybody know a way to load this particular html script AFTER we are sure the muse scripts (esp. jquery) have been loaded ?
(in the Edge Animate world, i’d go for the yepnope, and put it at the right place in the code, though, here i have no access to page load structure except head)
PS : in addition to that, i made an exported page/excluded from navigation where i put all the images i wanted for the background, i could then simply change the images lines :
, "http://dl.dropbox.com/u/515046/www/garfield-interior.jpg"
to
, "images/my_image_name_as_in_ressources.jpg"

Got it, there was a bug in my code. Here is what you do:
1. Download the js file https://raw.github.com/srobbin/jquery-backstretch/master/jquery.backstretch.min.js
2. In Muse: Go to File -> Add Files for Upload and add the script file
3. Open Page Properties -> Metadata -> HTML for <Head>
Paste this code in:
<script>
window.onload = function() {
var loaded = function() {
$.backstretch([
      "http://dl.dropbox.com/u/515046/www/outside.jpg"
    , "http://dl.dropbox.com/u/515046/www/garfield-interior.jpg"
    , "http://dl.dropbox.com/u/515046/www/cheers.jpg"
], {duration: 3000, fade: 750});
//Load the plugin:
var head= document.getElementsByTagName('head')[0];
var script= document.createElement('script');
script.type= 'text/javascript';
script.onreadystatechange = loaded;
script.onload = loaded;
script.src= 'assets/jquery.backstretch.min.js';
head.appendChild(script);
}; //Window OnLoad
</script>
4. Preview or Publish = Done!

Wish I didn't upgrade! and now I need help to figure out how to make it wor

I have a Windows XP Pro 2nd edition with IE ver 6.0.2 (but I normally use FireFox)
I've never had any trouble with iTunes until iTunes "forced" me to upgrade my iTunes applicaiton to version 6 if I wanted to "purchase" music. (note to self: Purchase music from stores it's much safer)...
I upgraded and received no error messages. Trouble is now, when I launch the iTunes application it doesn't "open" ... although the iTunes process begins to run in the background process (ctraltdelete).
I have uninstalled and installed 5 different times and ways.
First uninstall was "typical" uninstall. THat didn't fix it.
Second uninstall was "typical" unistall from the Control Panel, and then I removed the folders from the "program File" folder. Still wouldn't work.
Third unintall was "typical" then I removed folders from local drive and removed all "known" registry "itune" keys. That didn't work.
Fourth uninstall was first a "repair" to itunes, and then a "typical" uninstall, then I removed folders, removed registry (does anyone know all of itunes registry keys? Maybe I am missing a few.. the only ones I know of is the "itune" reg). Then I looked through my start up menu from "msconfig" and took a look at my firewall program to see if there was anything preventing the program from running...
Fifth uninstall pretty much fruitless as my previous attempts.
I know it HAS to be a registry key of some sort.. here's why:
When I uninstall and reinstall (no matter how thourough) every time I install the iTunes program Windows XP has never ONCE recognized the new install of iTunes as a "NEW PROGRAM" and it should!
I need help... what registry keys should I be removing? ANyone suggest for me to remove Quick Time too? What about the ipod updater software? Any connection?
HELP??????????????????
THanks

hi wmchisholm!
Trouble is now, when I launch the iTunes application it doesn't "open" ... although the iTunes process begins to run in the background process (ctraltdelete).
hmmm. is itunes.exe persisting in Task Manager? if so, first check up on these two possibilities:
iTunes 6 won't open on a Windows computer if firewall software is not up-to-date
iTunes for Windows doesn't open after upgrading
but if itunes.exe is disappearing after a few seconds, try the following technique:
Using MSCONFIG to troubleshoot conflicts in Windows
... and let us know the names (exact spelling please) of the start-up items that you had to disable in order to get itunes to launch. (there's a nasty piece of malware out there that has been causing "error-less" itunes launch failures since late October.)

I was cleaning up unwanted music on my ipod and now finished get this message "Do Not Disconnect" and it won't do anything else now ? Need help? name is Tom

I had bought this quite some years ago but would like to now update it and now have hit a glitch. I need help without loosing all my downloads ?

You should really read the manual.
"How do you restore from backup? "
Restore. When given the choice, choose to use backup.
"And how can I check to see if the pics and videos are on my computer somewhere first??"
They would only be where you put them. What program did you use to import them? Pics/vids taken with ipod are not part of the sync process at all. You should be importing them just as you would with any digital camera.
If you did not import them, then they are not on your computer.

Need help from Jeff in getting CC desktop application

Jeff, I was unable to find my previous question to you from the other day. To start over, my CC desktop application is gone missing after 10 months of CC usage. I need to download a LR update so I can use my camera with raw files. How can I get this back? Apparently Adobe doesn't allow reinstalling of individual programs even though I actually own LR. Please redirect me accordingly. I need help. I have win 7 64.

Need help from Blackberry - Can't register 9860 in BB network.

Yesterday I have bought a 9860 torch from an online auction site in Romania. The phone is looking great, working great, except I cannot register it on the blackberry network, in order to use an internet data plan. As soon as I turned the phone on, the yesOPTUS carrier logo appeared on the screen, indicating that this device once belonged to someone in Australia. My carrier is Orange Romania and I am using it on a pre-paid SIM card with the "blackberry unlimited 4" internet option that Orange offers in Romania. When I try to go to Host Routing Table in the phone's menu, there is nothing displayed there. I tried to send the registration message and remove the battery (while the decice is ON) and put it back in, with no result. I have spent a day on the phone with the data plans support team at Orange Romania, virtually troubleshooting every possibility to connect the device to the bb network - they even created a bb access point specifically for my phone number - everything without result. When I tried to create a blackberry account on blackberry.orange.ro with my PIN and IMEI, the page replied that my account is disabled and that I should contact my carrier. Which I did. And they said that I should either talk to Blackberry or yesOPTUS, as there is a possibility that my device is already registered with the BB network on the yesOPTUS, from it's first owner back in Australia, and that my PIN may need to be erased from a database in order to be re-synced with my carrier. The way I see it, it's either that, or Orange does not carry the 9860 in their network (yet?). The certain fact is that I ended up with a beautiful device that I can't use to it's fully potential. Any help from Blackberry is fully appreciated. Thanks.

Optus is in the only one that can remove the PIN/IMEI from their system. You need to contact them.
If the device has been reported lost or stolen, they won't remove it.

Need help from somebody with the "MSI KT6 Delta-FIS2R" motherboard

Hi everybody!
I really need some help from somebody with the MSI KT6 Delta-FIS2R motherboard (the one with onboard LAN, Audio, RAID, S-ATA and IEEE1394 firewire). You see. I've got this board myself but it's been destroyd. Some values for the onboard devices in my board has been overwritten so that windows no longer recognizes the onboard LAN and Audio controller anymore. I really need some help from somebody with this board.
I need to see what the values for the onboard devices should be. I hope someone can help me by sending me a repport from the Everest home edition: http://www.lavalys.com/products/overview.php?pid=1&lang=en
If anyone could do me this favour, I would be VERRY thankfull
