OS X - Copy Paste doesn't seem to Work Here!

Hi...
In AME, I strive to set an output folder. I DONT want to have to write the same name all over again
So I try to copy and paste.
So I click the output path which opens an OS X Browser. I click New Folder and hit Apple+V to paste.
Nothing happens. I have to right-click in the name field and choose PASTE to do that.
Wonder if it is my machine only or a BUG !

Whether the bug is in AME or OS X is rather inconsequential. It affects the AME experience, therefore Adobe needs to be aware of it. If our investigation shows that OS X is the cause of the problem then we can send it to Apple via their developer bug report system.
In this case, I believe it is a bug in AME. Rather, it is an unimplemented feature; it feels like the copy/paste code just never got hooked up to this dialog. Doing so is apparently the responsibility of the app developer, though I also see the argument that Apple should enable it by default. To verify that such behavior was possible, I compared AME's behavior to the same repro steps in After Effects. Copy/paste works with the similar dialog in After Effects, therefore there is reasonable expectation that we can make it work in AME.
(FWIW, that means that yes, I did file this bug already. And no, me filing the bug internally is not a good excuse for you not to do the same if you haven't already. Seriously, folks, bugs filed by customers carry more weight than bugs filed internally. It's proof that our customers are affected by the problem. That doesn't necessarily mean the bug will get fixed faster, but it does give it a better chance.)

Copy Paste doesn't work during and after a remote login session

Hi
I am using a Windows 7 Home Premium Service Pack 1 laptop to login into Linux. I am using Putty and Xming to SSH and view the desktop. Whenever I start a session the copy paste functionality gets disabled in my laptop,i.e., I cannot copy text from one text
file to another or within the same text file. The copy paste doesn't work even upon closing the connection.
From what I have gathered it is not possible to copy from one computer(host) to another(guest) during a remote login session but I am not able to copy within my windows laptop.
Is there some setting that I need to change to prevent it from happening? What are the possible solutions?
Thank You
Rishabh

Hi,
Are you able to copy and paste in the putty session, with mouse or keyboard?
Using PuTTY
http://the.earth.li/~sgtatham/putty/0.52/htmldoc/Chapter3.html
Please restart your PC to check whether you can get back the copy and paste function. It can be caused by some compatibility issue.
Please also run "sfc /scannow", check if it find and fix any errors.

Copy items to the iPhoto Library option doesn't seem to work

Hi, I'm using 7.1.1 and if I:
1. De-select the create "Copy items to the iPhoto Library" option in Preferences/Advanced
2. Create a new library
It doesn't seem to work. The images are still being copied into the library -- that is, if I show the package contents of the library, the data directory has the photos. Additionally, if I do something like open, modify in photoshop and save one of the imported files, it doesn't show up in iPhoto. Likewise if I modify the file in iPhoto and then look at the photo in the file system using Preview or Photoshop, the iPhoto changes don't appear.
Is this a bug? Is it not supposed to work like this? I believe that if I say "don't copy the files into the library" it means that it uses my original photos in their original location and that changes I make in iPhoto modify and manipulate the original files.
I've tried this on two different machines and get the same results. Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks!

markand:
Welcome to the Apple Discussions. It's not a bug. You don't understand correctly how iPhoto works in the "referenced" library mode. The Data folder contains the thumbnail files that iPhoto creates and needs to operate. The Originals folder will contain alias files linked to the source files at their location. Any edits, by iPhoto or by Photoshop configured correctly will result in a modified file in the Modified folder of iPhoto. *You should not open, rename, move or edit any file in the library package from the Finder.*
Using Photoshop to edit photos in iPHoto must be done by selecting PS as the editor to use in iPhoto's General Preferences section. Then follow the instructions below to edit photos correctly:
Using Photoshop (or Photoshop Elements) as Your Editor of Choice in iPhoto.
1 - select Photoshop as your editor of choice in iPhoto's General Preference Section's under the "Edit photo:" menu.
2 - double click on the thumbnail in iPhoto to open it in Photoshop. When you're finished editing click on the Save button. If you immediately get the JPEG Options window make your selection (Baseline standard seems to be the most compatible jpeg format) and click on the OK button. Your done.
3 - however, if you get the navigation window that indicates that PS wants to save it as a PS formatted file. You'll need to either select JPEG from the menu and save (top image) or click on the desktop in the Navigation window (bottom image) and save it to the desktop for importing as a new photo.
This method will let iPhoto know that the photo has been editied and will update the thumbnail file to reflect the edit..
If you want to use both iPhoto's editing mode and PS without having to go back and forth to the Preference pane, once you've selected PS as your editor of choice, reset the Preferences back to "Open in main window". That will let you either edit in iPhoto (double click on the thumbnail) or in PS (Control-click on the thumbnail and seledt "Edit in external editor" in the Contextual menu). This way you get the best of both worlds
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

Can a use a partitioned external hard drive to create a disk image? I tried, doesn't seem to work using disk manager.

Can a use a partitioned external hard drive to create a disk image? I tried, doesn't seem to work using disk manager.

OK, it's very bad computing to use a backup disk for anything but a backup. The reason being is if/when the HD crashes you will have lost not only all your backup but the data files. While I commend you for wanting redundant backup, you really need separate EHDs for doing so. Format each EHD using Disk Utility to Mac OS Extended (Journaled) using the GUID parttition. When you connect, OS X will ask if you want to use that drive as a Time Machine backup drive, select yes and then let it backup. On the second EHD format the same way however do not use TM as a backup, this time I'd suggest an app such as SuperDuper or Carbon Copy Cloner to make a clone of the internal HD. Leave both EHDs connected and TM will backup new or changed files automatically on a hourly basis. The clone you will need to set to backup on the schedule you want. For example I have my SuperDuper EHD set to backup only changed or updated files at 2AM every day.
The advantage of a clone is that if the computers internal HD crashes you can boot from a clone and continue working, TM will not do that but it's great for keeping an archive of all files. So if you want a version of a file from many months ago, TM will help you locate and restore it.

I want pictures from each device in the cloud, but not on every other device. Possible? "iCloud Backup" alone doesn't seem to work....

My goal is to acheive 3 of the following things.:
Have all my apple devices sync pictures to the icloud *without* syncing the pictures on all the devices...so just one direction from device to cloud and not have all the devices insync from the cloud...... I don't want all the devices in sync, I just want the pictures protected in the cloud. To do this, I've tried to just turn on "icloud bacn-up" and not turn on "photo stream" to acheive this, but doesn't seem to work.
If #1 is possible, then I would like to sync the icloud with a folder on my PC using the icloud app for the PC. Not sure if I can have only the icloud PC sync and not have all the devices in sync?
If #1 and #2 could work, then I would sync the PC folder with my local storge.
end result would be all my photos save in the cloud and a safe copy my home in my local storage. I would have thought that most people would want to do this, but doens't seem so obvious to me as to how I can get it to work?
Any help would be appreicated.
thanks

You can't use iCloud as a safe place to store your photos when they are deleted from your devices. iCloud designed to stream photos to your devices, and to back up photos currently on your your devices as part of your iCloud backups. However, photo stream photos only remain in iCloud for 30 days, giving your devices enough time to download them. And if you delete a photo stream photo from any of your devices, it is also deleted from iCloud and from all of your devices. Furthermore, while camera roll photos are included in your backup, if you then delete the photos from your device and continue backing up, the backup containing the deleted photos will be overwritten by one that doesn't, and they will be lost.
If you want to save your photos, import them from the camera roll to your computer as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083. Then you can delete them from your device.
If you would rather have a cloud-based place to store your photos, look into a service such as Dropbox.

Bridge Offset Nulling Doesn't Seem to Work With SCC-SG24

Does anyone know if the DAQmx "Perform Bridge Offset Nulling Calibration" vi works with the SCC-SG24 modules? We have used our NI-9237 module in the past to acquire dual-channel load cell (thrust & torque) measurements, and calling that vi does a fine job of zeroing out the values before applying the load. However, it doesn't seem to work when we try to take the same measurements using an SCC-SG24 module.
We are able to zero the values manually, by using the nulling resistors and potentiometers in the SCC-SG24. But, whether the nulling resistors are installed or not, we are not able to zero the values using the "Perform Bridge Offset Nulling Calibration" vi. Running that vi does induce a significant offset in the values, but it is not the correct offset needed to bring the values to zero. For example, with no load applied, a torque reading before running the vi may be +1090 in-lbs, and be "zeroed" to -465 in-lbs after running the vi. Running the vi multiple times (to check repeatability) always brings us back to approximately -465 in-lbs.
An additional issue (not sure if it's related or not) is that if we try to run this vi to offset just one of the channels in the task (such as just thrust, but not torque) it will still induce a small offset in the other channel, which doesn't seem right.
I guess I'm not clear on whether the subject vi is performing an operation on the hardware, the software, or both, so I'm not sure whether the SCC-SG24 modules may not be compatible with this vi?
Thanks for any help you can provide.

Hello Dhruser1,
I think that the DAQmx Perform Bridge Offset Nulling Calibration should work for the SCC-SG24 module. Take a look at this article: Removing Large Initial Offset for Load Cell or Strain Measurements with SCXI-1520 or PXI-4220 in particular it mentions that using this VI in addition to the auto zero can introduce an offset. If you're doing both these is likely the cause.
Also, when you specify specific channels using the channels input are you also setting the "skip unsupported channels to false? If not this may be why it affects other channels.
I hope this helps, and if not please feel free to post back with an update after trying these things.
Cheers,
Brooks

Numbers application on Ipad, the 'VALUE' function doesn't seem to work correctly on the string/text I want to convert to a value.

Hi, I would appreciate if someone could assist with the following. On the Numbers application on my Ipad, the 'VALUE' function doesn't seem to work correctly on the string/text which I want to convert to a value. It gives me an error (in my example: 'VALUE requires a string specifying a number, but found "-14308.65" instead.'
The exact same document (if converted from Numbers to excel), displays the converted string/text correctly in MS Excel as a value though.

click on the cell then in the formula bar and use the arrow keys to move the cursor to see if there are any other characters in the cell that could confuse the function. Also make sure the localization for your country is correct in System Prefs.
Maybe copy the EXACT contents of the cell and post here.

HTML Snippet doesn't seem to work

Hi there
I recently upgraded from iWeb 08 to iWeb 09.
My problem is, HTML Snippet Widget doesn't seem to work.
Even though I am able to drag the HTML Snippet onto my page
and they just look fine on my iMac, when I publish and upload the files,
those counter and ads I made using HTML Snippet are all gone.
I see nothing at the places they should be.
What should I do?
Or am I missing something?

Thanks for reply. Old Toad,
I'm hosting my site using third party server, not by using MobileMe.
My counter is made by third party as well.
Here's one of my page using iWeb 08.
http://americatvfilmnotes.web.fc2.com/Public_Enemies.html
Everything is fine.
I can see every ads I put there.
And here's the one I made by basically copying format from the page above.
But this time, I used iWeb 09 and alas,
All my ads are gone.
http://americatvfilmnotes.web.fc2.com/Cheri.html
I just added the counter for this page and uploaded but
I cannot see it as well.
Of course I can see them on my iWeb 09.
I used Cyberduck to upload.
Anyways, the point is, why I cannot do things I could before when
I was using iWeb 08?
I think I'm totally lost.

Wacom Tablet doesn't seem to work all of the time?

I have a Wacom Intuos 3 tablet, not more than a year old. I recently installed it onto my Macbook Pro and it worked fine, but when I unplugged it and came back to work with it later, it doesn't seem to work. The mouse doesn't respond to where I click on the pad.
So, I've reinstalled this a couple of times and was able to make it work perfectly, but today when I went back to work in photoshop, it doesn't seem to be responding again.
Does anyone have any tips? I know that Leopard likes you to eject USB devices instead of just pulling them out of the slot, but I don't see anywhere to eject it.
Does anyone know what's up?

Downloaded a driver from website, tablet works now.

Safari on my iPhone 6 running 8.02 doesn't seem to work right. Some Java scripts don't show correctly and they do on other browsers I have downloaded. I tried almost everything and nothing seems to work to fix it. Please help.

Some websites like the one of my college uses JavaScripts and they seem to load correctly to a certain point but then not really. For example in one it would say select an option from the left menu. And I do it hut nothing happens. But when I go to the same website in another browser on my phone. The JavaScript works completely and allows me to see whatever I was clickig on that menu. I have seen that there are other websites being affected too. I tried clearing my cookies and data. even restarted my phone. And doesn't seem to work. I don't know how change the configuration any more to make it work like normal. At first I thought it was my school's website but it never got fixed. And now I realized is my safari browser! I wanna keep using it since I am really familiar with It. If someone knows how to fix this please let me know!
Thanks

Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

I'm travelling and trying to back up my new iPhone to iCloud. I have sufficient storage, am connected to wifi and it's plugged into a power source and yet it doesn't seem to work. Can anyone suggest what I'm doing wrong?

I'm travelling and trying to back up my new iPhone to iCloud. I have sufficient storage, am connected to wifi and it's plugged into a power source and yet it doesn't seem to work at all. I'm currently in India. Could that be the cause or can anyone suggest any reason why this wouldn't work?

"gets stuck" - are there any error messages?
If you get the error "Backup not successful" and you've tried deleting the last backup and trying to back up manually without luck, try the following test: Go to...
Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup>manage Storage, tap your device name in the Backups section, then look under Backup options. Turn off all apps from backup and then do a manual backup. If that doesn't work, then this post will not help. If the backup works, then go back to the app list and turn some on and try another backup. If successful, keep repeating these steps. If it fails at some point, then try to zero in on the one app that seems to make the backup fail. (I had this problem and found one app failing, probably due to a corrupt data file.)
This process will take time, but if a backup works with no app data being used but clearly fails with the original settings, then somewhere in the mix of apps is a "bad" one.

Pdfmark code in MS Word 2008 doc doesn't seem to work properly to create Named Destination

Hi all,
I've been having trouble with creating Preview-compatible Named Destinations in Acrobat 9.x (see http://forums.adobe.com/thread/770470?tstart=0). Distiller, on the other hand, appears to create compatible Destinations, so as a last-ditch effort, I tried to go back to my original source file (Microsoft Word 2008 document) to use Distiller's pdfmark functionality, to see if maybe I could finally get a PDF with Preview-compatible Destinations.
Following instructions found elsewhere on this forum, I went into Word and inserted the following field into a test location in my document:
PRINT "[ /Dest /testdest /View [ /XYZ null null null ] /DEST pdfmark"
This field code is supposed to then cause a pdfmark to be inserted into the resulting PostScript and/or PDF files. Distiller is supposed to understand this and turn it into a Named Destination called "testdest." However, it doesn't seem to work - I don't see the pdfmark code in the PS file, and the PDF file doesn't have any Named Destinations in it.
I'm using Acrobat 9.x on Mac OS X 10.6.5, so I tried this two different ways:
1) Using the "Print to Adobe PDF" workflow (which replaced the "Adobe PDF Printer" from previous OS/Acrobat versions) - this automatically generates a PDF via (presumably) an API call to Distiller... and
2) Using the "Print to Postscript" workflow to generate a PS file, which I then ran through Adobe Distiller.
In neither case did I end up with a named destination in the PDF file, as I was supposed to. In case #2, even the Postscript file didn't have a pdfmark embedded in it. Thus, I'm assuming that perhaps this is particular issue may be a problem with MS Word 2008 rather than with Acrobat... but I'm hoping someone might have a clue as to how to fix it.
I welcome ideas on how to get Word 2008 to properly output pdfmark code, so that Distiller will pick it up and properly embed a Named Destination into the PDF...
Thanks in advance.
(If anyone has ideas about the Preview-compatible problem, linked above, that would also be great!)

You're suggesting that it was never fixed from Word 2004 to 2008? Possibly. I wonder if it's fixed in Word 2011? Anyone know? But is it really a Word problem, rather than a Distiller issue?
I appreciate your offer, though I do have access to Word on Windows (2003, I think), so I could try Distilling there... I only worry about formatting, since there are minor differences (e.g. font kerning, etc.) between Mac and Windows that are subtle, but sufficient to create formatting issues for very long documents (e.g. pushing figures onto the wrong pages, etc.). That would be a rather big problem.
The question remains whether this is an issue with Word or Distiller, though... and whether it's fixed in Distiller X and/or Word 2011.
Adobe, care to comment?
I'd really love to find a proper Mac solution, if one exists... it would be rather a slap to Mac users if a solution doesn't exist.

Hi I'm running Addressbook and cannot clear previous entry easily when searching my data base of around 5,000 contacts.
I prefer to view in All contacts on a double page spread with details on the right page. Searching doesn't seem to work correctly in this view.
It's always the second search that is problematic.
I've tried typing over and all it seems to do is confine the search to the the entries that have come up for the previous search.
I've tried to use the x to clear the previous entry and then type the next search, same problem. The only way seems to be to move from "All Contacts" to "Groups". Then the searched name appears and I can return to All Contacts to see full details.
Surely three key press' are not the way it's supposed to work?
