Opening v4 projects with v7

One of my colleagues has recently upgraded to Captivate v7 and she has a lot of her projects created with v4.
Are there any problems / issues if she opens the v4 projects with v7?
I will inform her to keep a copy of the v4 projects before opening them with v7 (just in case) - but are there any problems or other issues she needs to be aware of?

You'll need to throw out any AS2 components because since Cp5 now everything is AS3. This will include AS2 widgets, playbars, skins, animations, etc.
You'll also find that the Quiz Results slide will not function correctly by default (Continue button will disappear) and you'll need to delete it and set it up again once you finally get to Cp7.
There are many RD system variables in earlier versions that are now being phased out in favour of CP equivalents. If your Advanced Actions use the old RD variables, change them over immediately before a future Cp version means they'll stop working entirely.
Be aware that text animations changed significantly from Cp5 onward and some quiz question formats also seem to be suspect. Test everything thoroughly when you are finally in Cp7 and throw away any slides that seem to be malfunctioning for no apparent reason. Rebuild as much as you can in Cp7.

Open FCExpress projects with FCP

Hi Mac friends,
I once had FCExpress. Not any more.
I´ve all FCExpress projects and all the media stored on an external FW hard drive.
Can I open this projects now with FCP and save them as new FCP Projects in order to use and preserve this works?
If so, what´s the proper way to do it?
Thank you very much.
L.

You can open FCE projects with FCP. You will not be able to open the updated projects from FCP on FCE.
Just do a "Save As..." to make a copy.

Opening existing project with PRE 9

I have Premier Elements 9.0. When I start PRE and try to open a saved project, all I get is an empty window. The only way I can open an existing project is to first start a new one, then open the existing one from the File menu.
I don't know if it's connected, but I am also having a problem with installing an update that appears in Adobe Update manager. It downloads and then reports that it failed.

Great job of resolving your Premiere Elements 9 project opening issue.
McAfee can be particularly problematic for Premiere Elements, controlling both the antivirus and firewall(s).
As a just in case note, are you working from the 9.0.1 Update of version 9. If not, good idea to do so. But, if you do, please
use the online link from Adobe rather than the 9's opened project's Help Menu/Update.
If Windows
Adobe - Premiere Elements : For Windows : Premiere Elements 9.0.1 update

Why can't I open Premiere projects with Premiere?

For some reason .prproj files were defaulted to opening with adobe acrobat. I've tried to the change the default application but none of the options are Premiere, programs like utorrent, photoshop, and dreamweaver show up but not premiere. When I click browse and choose the Premiere executable file from the premiere folder in program files nothing changes, it still opens with one of the default programs.
Can I change this? It's not a huge problem because I can open premiere and then browse to the project but it's pretty annoying and it would be convinient if I could just double click the project file and open it.
Thanks - Jason

That is an operating system function... If you are on Windows, search http://search.microsoft.com/search.aspx?mkt=en-US&setlang=en-US for help with file assocation

IMovie will not open a project with a .rcproject extension

The other night I was working on a project in iMovie. This morning, when I opened up iMovie, I did not see the project in the viewing window, and the project filename had a .rcproject extension in the iMovie projects folder. I cannot seem to get iMovie to open the file. I would greatly appreciate any help! Thanks.

BTW my client says that the info breakdown on the clips says:
'component y'Cbcr 10-bit'

Open Published Project with Closed Search Frame

Hi there,
I'm using RH 8 and generating Webhelp Pro. I have turned off the navigation pane and have created my own TOC. I created my own window for RH to open in and I only want to use the search feature. What I'm trying to do is when I open RH in IE, Firefox, or other browsers I want the search frame to be closed and only open when the user clicks the search button. I'm assuming it is in the JavaScript somewhere but JavaScript is not my strong suit and I would struggle to find the reference to the code. I have displayed a couple of pictures of what I'm trying to do.
This is how it opens right now.
This is how I would like it to open.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank You,
Ian

Hey Nick
Thanks
I had no idea that the FCP on the new I mac was not in the application folder. So I checked it out, and sure enough it was only on the desktop. So I dragged it to the applications folder and checked for updates. After updating and restarting the Mac, wala Im good to go.
Jesk!
That was simple hard.
Thanks for helping me finnally get it.

Open projects with missing assets

When opening a project, with assets that have been deleted from the computer, the process is rather slow, as DVD Pro checks computer for all the missing assets individually. This is specially irritating when opening old projects with assets deleted, but which are kept for configuration reference.
Is there a way around this, or should I just learn some patience?

You may have to change the way you work/save projects.
You could replace your project assets with "dummy" assets(this keeps the button layouts, etc.) before you save it. That way on the next similar project you do a data replace. Or just enjoy the quality time of "re-linking" and data replace.
The "placehoder or dummy asset" works good for me.

FB4 errors will not go away when opening project with FB3

I decided to download FB4 and I opened a project that I had been working on in FB3 and I got these errors:
The style 'backgroundGradientAlphas' is only supported by type 'mx.core.WindowedApplication' with the theme(s) 'halo'. I found out how to fix this in FB4, but I decided it would be too much trouble to try to convert this project, so I decided to go back to FB3 to finish it. So I opened the project with my FB3 and the errors are still there.
How can I get these to go away?

You don't have to convert the project, you can still use SDK 3.
1) Project properties > Flex Compiler
2) Under Flex SDK version, choose Flex 3.5
You can also import older SDKs in Window > Preferences > Flash Builder > Installed Flex SDKs.
I'm not sure how you would see compiler errors from FB4 in FB3 unless you were somehow sharing the same workspace in both. Sharing a workspace in that way is unsupported.

Unable to open/edit project in project professional form PWA(project server 2010)

i have been working perfectly and opening my projects with project professional from PWA
All of a sudden,i get this error: no permission to read enterprise global file when trying to edit my projects in project professional from the PWA
i have also tried opening the project from project professional directly and it says (you do not have sufficient permissions to perform the requested action)
please what is the cause of this issue and what can i do to resolve it?

Hello kehinde,
The cause of this problem is somebody changed something.
To resolve, I would clear out the cache to see if that resolves anything.
Then, I would reboot system and see if that resolves.
If still no go, then I would look into security settings, and start doing some detective work. I keep a version of project server in a separate instance, that is completely out of the box, so I can have a reference point for settings.
If still not solution, then I would resave the global file settings.
Cheers!

Keep saying the project is locked by the user ~~~. can't open my project.

i made my first idvd project almost a year ago.
now i tried to open the project with my different user id.
i changed my id when my hardware crushed about 6months ago.
i don't have my previous id anymore.
when i tried to open the dvdproject that i burned.
it keeps saying the project can't be opened at this time.
i tried to unlock the file from doing getting info and changing the ownership and detail as it's said at the idvd help.
but, still doesn't open.
does anyone know how to solve my problem?

You are most welcome.
Do you still have your iMovie project on your computer? If so, you can just drag it's icon (the one with the star on it) into your iDVD project. Drag it to the edge of the menu window, not into a drop zone.
Also, this would be a good time to do a couple of simple things that might help. Close down your iDVD project, and then trash the file com.apple.iDVD.plist found in User/Library/Preferences. iDVD will create a new file on relaunch. Before relaunching, do a permissions repair, using the Utilities/Disk Utility app on your Mac. When you call up disk utility, read the screen to see how to do it.
Hope you get things running right.

Errors opening a project in Adobe Premiere pro CC 2014 from previous version

Hello!
I have a problem with Adobe Premiere Pro CC 2014. I use Adobe to edit my film project and from the last time I updated the CC to CC 2014, it shows me an error message (Pic nr 1). When I want to continue and save that, Premiere CC 2014 shows me another message(Nr 2). but next time when I want to open that, it's impossible ... (Nr 3).
I didn't change or remove anything. The problem started after I updated the program. Even now that I want to open the project with previous version of CC 2013, its showing me the same errors...
Do someone have any idea about it?
Thanks

Try this:
Error "This project contained a sequence that could not be opened"

Not responding - open a project in MSP pro 2010

I use MSP Pro 2010 with Project server 2010. When opening a project using "in Project Professional" option - it shows "Microsoft Project - Project1 (Not responding)", no error message and hangs. However, in PWA "Assignment details"
and "Resource Summary" view are working, all other views display "The view failed to load. Press OK to reload..." message. No sub-project is used.
Any ideas on how to fix this project to open in MS Project Pro? What would be the SQL query to see all resources for that project?
ds

Hi,
Do you have this unexpected behavior for all projects or just this one?
Can you try on another machine?
Can you try opening the project will PWA, check it out, publish it and check it in again?
I've seen many corruption issues solved simply by opening the project with PWA.
Hope this helps,

WPF 4.5 doesn't show the option to open the project in Blend for Visual Studio 2013

Hi,
In my WPF 4.5 project in Visual Studio 2013, when I right clicked the name of my project it doesn’t show the option to open in Blend for Visual Studio 2013….. and when I try to open the project with Blend for Visual Studio 2013, it doesn't show anything.....
I don't see the project nor the UI of my WPF 4.5 project
How I can open my project in Blend for Visual Studio 2013???
Thanks!!!
Regards,

Hi Jaquense,
open Blend. Open Project/Solution and select the .sln-file of the project you've created in visual Studio. That's it. In the Project Explorer in Blend you should see your files and you should be able to open up your XAML-files.

Shouldn't really be the MPE at fault here ... what is the codec of the footage/sequence/project?
Second, can you create a new project in PrPro, then in the media browser, import that sequence from the other project?

How do I open GarageBand 09 project with the Amp and Pedals Plugins?

My client sent me via YouSendIt online me his GarageBand 09 v5.0.1 project to tune up Logic Pro 8.0.2. Upon opening the project I receive the message, "Warning! This Project was created by a newer Logic Pro version. This may cause problems. Please update Logic Pro." After I hit "OK", a message says, "Logic Pro: Plug-in “Pedals” not available!, and then "Logic Pro: Plug-in “AmpSim2” not available! Where can I download or get the update that I need for Logic Pro with the Pedals and AmpSim2 Plug-Ins and when will it be available? What other version of Logic Pro is there?

Quoted from Foxboy71:
"aren't the pedals plugs and these new gizmos AU Plugins? Then they should be able to be put into Logic somehow. If not, how did Apple implement them into Garageband (and why!)?"
The folowing excerpts were taken from a Sound On Sound article at http://www.soundonsound.com/sos/aug06/articles/applenotes_0806.htm
"This theory actually plays out, even at the moment, when you consider that every update to Logic includes features to make it compatible with songs created in the latest version of Garage Band. And some of these features have actually benefited the high-end user, such as Apple Loops, in a rare example of the low end driving the high end, as opposed to the other way around."
