Particles flow in to form text and then flow out again...

I was wondering if there was a way to do something like this in After Effects... i'd like to have particles of some sort blow in from screen left... form text for about 5 seconds and then disintegrate again and blow away through screen right
anyone know how I might achieve this?
would I need some sort of plugin?

You can do this in a variety of ways from using Particle Playground, Card Dance, Shatter to CC Particle World to third-party plug-ins such as Trapcode Form and Particular. There just won't be any instant solution with either of these. All of them require multiple instances, custom parameter maps and/or heavy parameter animation as well as time-reversal techniques since naturally most particle systems expand/ explode ratehr than to "suck in". realyl depends. i recommend you study the VideoCopilot site's tutorials section, Tuts+ and other resources. and look for something suitable to get started, then come back with more specific questions.

I am looking for an application that would allow me to open a word doc, and take notes in the .doc using a stylus pen. I'd then like to convert those notes to text, and then be able to copy / paste those notes into an email. Does this app exist?

It seems like we were doing these same types of things with Palm Pilots years ago, one would think this would work with iPads?

I don't believe it will open a Word document, but Writepad allows for handwritten conversion of notes to text and then to email. Might help you some of the way...

Iba allow others to make text edits. What workflow are you guys using to allow others to make text edits once the iBook has been layed out and formatted? Is it too late? Do I need to export txt then reimport the editted text and reformat it all again?

Hi Ken,
Thanks for the reply. The project I am working on is a test project for a customer. They could potentially want a number of their educational subjects presented as an interactive text book. The intent of this first project with them is to establish a logical workflow that will allow us to efficiently estimate costs and allow for review throughout the design process. Having worked with customers on creative projects in the past I can anticipate that they will want a number of changes made once they see a working version of the interactive text book.
It is a grim reality that no project can be fully edited and planned prior to working on it and I know revisions and changes are always made once the customer can see their product. It is ok with me if there is no easy way to pass the text back and forth from the customer and me without having to reformat everything but I just want to know that is the way it works in order to provide a realistic time estimate for the project.
My hope was I would be able to export the formatted text, allow them to make edits and then reimport that formatted text. The style sheets I am using are from one of the iBooks Author templates.
Do you know if there is a way to use (or export ) this style sheet so it can be used in a Pages Document?
Or, would the best option be to have the customer install iBooks Author? This would require the customer to have a mac and the software so it doesn't work for all cases.
Another idea I was considering would be to export the book as a PDF and have the customer add markup and notes to the PDF.
All of these options do not seem too great to me.
I am open to any ideas.
Thanks,
Rob

Whenever i try and send an imessage to someone that has an iphone it gets stuck at times and won't go through. I then have to send it as a basic text and then it will respond message failed to send what should i do when it does this i need help

Whenever i try and send an imessage to someone that has an iphone it gets stuck at times and won't go through. I then have to send it as a basic text and then it will respond message failed to send what should i do when it does this i need help

The use of iMessage depends on both the sender and the receiver having an active data connection. If either of the two connections are interrupted, the message can fail. The sending of an iMessage differs from the sending of an SMS, and if you are having SMS failures, that would be a carrier concern.

I keep getting the error message "apple application support is required to run itunes. Please uninstall itunes and then install it again." I've done this twice and still keep getting the same message...I'm at wits end Please HELP!!!

Let's try a standalone Apple Application Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of the issue.
Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
http://www.rarlab.com/
Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleApplicationSupport.msi to do a standalone AAS install.
Does it install properly for you? If so, does iTunes launch properly now?
If instead you get an error message during the install, let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.)

Building in and then building out

I have a series of bullet points that I'd like to have build in then out one at a time so there's only one bullet at a time on a particular slide. When I try to rearrange the bullet points in the Build Order box of the Inspector it only allows me to move all the Build Ins or all the Build Outs but not one at a time. I'd like to have bullet one build in on the first click and then build out on the second click and same thing with the next two bullets. Is there a way to do this?
Thanks,
Marc

Is there a way to do this? Yes.
See the Build Inspector, select all the bullets, Build IN, and Delivery by Paragraph
then
select all the bullets, Build Out, and Delivery by Paragraph,
then
in the Drawer, start shuffling and altering the Start Build until you get what you want.
Alternately, have each bullet item as a separate object (text block) (which is effectively what the above does) and manipulate as desired.
Or
have each bullet on a separate slide and just do a slide transition without builds.

HT204380 I have done all the above. I am in Germany using an iPad 2, trying to call an iPad 2 in the UK. My IPad goes through the call and then times out. I have been on the phone to the receiver at the time so know they had their iPad on.

What do you mean that you can't "call" an iPad in the UK?? That doesn't particularly make sense. You can email to an iPad or text them, but the iPad is not a phone, so how do you expect to "call" them??
Hope this helps

When i try to open week cal it loads and then closes after a few seconds...I have checked for updates, turned the phone off then on, closed out of the app and then opened it again...nothing works! Any suggestions?

When i try to open week cal it loads and then closes after a few seconds...I have checked for updates, turned the phone off then on, closed out of the app and then opened it again...nothing works! I have thought about deleting the app from my phone and then reloading it again but I worry that it will delete all my calendar info??? Any suggestions?

To reset, press and hold the Home and power buttons until the silver apple appears.
I would delete the app, reset the phone and then download the app again. Your calendar information should be stored on the phone as Week Cal uses the Calendar app information.
Best of luck.

My iPhone 5 went black. I tried pushing the on/off button and the circle button at the same time. It worked once and then it happened again and I can't get it to work.

Iphone 5 went black. Tried pushing on/off and circle at the same time. Worked yesterday and then did it again today. Can't get it to work.

You need to hold those button longer until you see the apple logo, then release, then wait for the phone to boot back up.

I cannot open iphoto- the message I am getting says Shut down and restart your computer, and then open iPhoto again. If the problem persists, try rebuilding your photo library. To do this, quit iPhoto, and then reopen it while keeping the Option and Comma

i cannot open iphoto- the message I am getting says Shut down and restart your computer, and then open iPhoto again. If the problem persists, try rebuilding your photo library. To do this, quit iPhoto, and then reopen it while keeping the Option and Command-
I tries and it doesnt work!!

What version of iPhoto? Assuming 09 or later:
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 Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places 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.

How can i hide a JFrame and then Show it again in runtime

How can i hide a JFrame and then Show it again in runtime??
Please, please help me
Its URGENT

Here's even an example:
import javax.swing.*;
public class HideAndShow extends JFrame
     public HideAndShow()
          super("Hello");
          setSize(200, 200);
          setVisible(true);
          try
               Thread.sleep(2000);
          } catch(InterruptedException e) {}
          setVisible(false);
          try
               Thread.sleep(2000);
          } catch(InterruptedException e) {}
          setVisible(true);
     public static void main(String[] args)
          new HideAndShow();
The JFrame will show, then hide, then show again. This is at runtime.

Rick, Have you had any success with this? I'm also trying to run the tfs_VssUpgrade.exe tool on my Windows 8.1 machine and getting the same exception. Greatly appreciate any insight if you were able to get past this issue! Thanks, Steve
Same issue here.
This MS connect thread
is interesting however.

Hello Alxandr,
Thank you for taking the time to submit this issue to Connect. This is a known issue with Windows 8.1 RTM and it will be addressed in a future update of Windows 8.1. In the meantime, you can typically rename the EXE to get it to work correctly.
