I am having problems updating my itunes to the latest version, on each stage I am getting a message 'The feature you are trying to use in on a network resource that is unavailable.' I try to click OK it fails and I do not know an alternate path to select

I am having problems updating my itunes to the latest version, on each stage I am getting a message 'The feature you are trying to use in on a network resource that is unavailable.' I try to click OK it fails and I do not know an alternate path to select, please help?
I get message like below on each stage of the update, Quicktime, Safari & iTunes;
It's so annoying as until I update my iTunes account my phone won't sync.

Many thanks for the screenshot. (The key to these is knowing which particular .msi file is being mentioned by the message.)
(1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
(2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
(3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
(4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any Bonjour entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
(5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?
(Assuming that the QuickTime and Safari messages were also citing bonjour64.msi, you should also then be good to go with those installs too.)

File Dialog can return incorrect path when selecting Windows special folders

I found an interesting bug when writing an application today. Basically the File Dialog express VI can return the wrong path if selecting special folders in some circumstances. This bug seems especially tough to track down, but I think I managed to figure it out. Steps to reproduce using LabVIEW 8.6.1 on Windows XP:
Use LabVIEW's File > Open... command to open any VI that is not located directly on your desktop. You MUST use the File > Open... command as this will set the working directory for the dialog box.
Close the VI (all we cared about was ensuring the working directory was set).
Create a new VI.
Place the File Dialog express VI onto the diagram (Programming > File I/O > Advanced File Functions > File Dialog).
Configure the express VI to select a folder and an existing item, leave the selection enabled to limit to a single item.
Create an indicator to show the returned path from the dialog.
Run the VI. Navigate to either your Desktop via the large button on the left, or the pull down menu up top.
Click the "Current Folder" button.
Observe how the VI returns whatever the original location of the dialog box was, not the desktop directory.
I have not confirmed this bug on other operating systems but following the steps above reproduces it on my system.

This is a very unusual problem you are having. I tried it on another PC in the office and it did not show the problem you are experiencing. Are you able to replicate this every time, or only occasionally? Are you able to see this on other computers? Do you see this same problem using other software on the computer? Do you have the most recent updates from Microsoft? Perhaps the answer to these questions can help shed some light on the problem at hand.

Transformation - Rotate only moves path, not selected pixels.

Hi All,
I must be missing some simple click somewhere.... Just starting out with the Pen tool, paths and converting into a selection.
Trying to transform a converted selection pixels made from a path.
Current layer is visible and selected. Current path is selected. I use the path-selection tool to pick the path. I do "make selection" which turns pixels into a selection. So far, so good.
After going to Edit | Transform Path | Rotate, the bounding box is displayed. I drag the corner and the bounding box turns along with the path I made. The selection does not move at all. When I hit the 'commit' button, no pixels are moved. Nothing changes in the picture.
If I do all the above in an untouched fresh .psd file with just a background layer and a layer 1 included, everything works. Whatever is selected rotates fine.
Why would a Transform Path | Rotate work fine in one photo, but not in another?
I'm sure it's something simple. Thanks in advance.

OK, found the solution in another forums.adobe.com post.... but it's non-intuitive.
The "transform path" menu option instead of "transform" being displayed may have something to do with having multiple paths for an image. Not really sure. It's just a hunch.

Ah with you now.
With the selection on screen click on the Move tool. Then check the "Show transform tools"box at the top of the screen. After that transform away...
I hope this helps

Load Path as Selection

I completed my path and clicked Load Path as a Selection. I have 2 cut out areas (holes) in the path, and the selection process did not include the holes, even though the path shows them. I had the button pressed "exclude overlapping path areas" when I made the path.
How do I get the path to select the outline, minus the "holes"? Kind of like a coffee cup profile with the hole in the handle excluded to show just the outline of the cup.

Here's the problem with working with paths in Photoshop: the stacking of the shapes inside the path is very important but you can't easily change that.
The uppermost shape interacts with all the shapes beneath it acording to the settings in the Options bar, if you want to rearange them you will have to select the path you want to bring to the front, Cut it and then Paste it back in place. You won't notice any difference on screen but now the path you just pasted is at the top of the stack
So if you first make a large circle and then you make a small circle in the middle of it, to cut out the small circle from the large one you have to select the small circle and from the options bar select Subtract from Shape area because the small circle is at the top. But if you first make the small circle and then the large one and want to achieve the same result then you have to select the large circle and select Exclude from Shape area. Or of course cut/paste the small circle so that it's at the top of the stack and then with it selected chose Subtract from Shape area

Heres a new one !make path from selection adobe CS4 problems

Hello Ive had CS4 for about a week and i Tried make a path from selection with alliptical tool and it comes out all wonky only rectangle tool is true to the its shape anything else is bugged.

OK. That method is not very good anyway.
Make the path using the Ellipse tool set to Paths In the Options Bar.

New features, e.g., blur path and select focus, are not showing up in my PS drop down menus

Although I've downloaded the CC PS 2014 updates the new features, e.g., blur path and select focus, are not showing up in my PS drop down menus - anybody know why and what I need to do?
<moved from downloading,installing,setting up - kglad>

Are you sure you understand the Cloud License concept?
You are entitled to keep Photoshop CC and install Photoshop CC 2014, so CC 2014 is not connected with additional costs and the time it takes to install the new version of Photoshop should not be that much of a imposition, should it?

Tolerance dialogue missing on "make work path from selection"

I am trying to convert a 1-color drawing to a path so I can put it into Illustrator. I use the magic wand to select the edges and get a nice tight fit. But when I select the "Make work path from selection" button, I get a sloppy fit. I've looked this up, and supposedly I should get a dialogue box asking me to state the tolerance. I have never seen that box - I've tried it and had colleagues come try it. My version 13.1.2 x64. Seems like a bug to me, but maybe I'm missing something. Is there another way to do this? Thank.s

R_Kelly wrote:
If you press the Alt/Option key while pressing the Make work path from selection button, then you'll get the Tolerance dialog.
Other ways are to right click inside the selection and choose Make Work Path or use the flyout menu from the Paths panel and choose Make Work Path.
Hah! I didn't know that RK
[EDIT] As an aside to the above information, having had a play with it, I have realised how poorly the 'Make work path from selection' feature works in Photoshop. It has always worried me that distibution of points that result from using that feature on a Shift drag eliptical marquee circle, appear less than optimal, but I have just lived with that because it is quick and convenient. But having just looked again, zooming right in and activating the point handles, the curve is just plain horrible!
Me thinks I shall take the time to do it properly in future, by using the Shape tool.
It also amazed me how many points were used when setting tolerance to the minimum of .5
Anyway... I am not getting my work done here, so time to earn a living

TreeModel - get path of selected node

How can I get path of selected node. I know getRowKey will return me for example [0,1,0] , but how can I use that to get string representation [Test, Folder1, Node0]
I tried to loop thru it but the results are inccorect.

public String pickPara_action() {
// Add event code here...
setCurrentParagraphNumberFromRow();
return null;
private void setCurrentParagraphNumberFromRow() {
FacesContext ctx = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
//java.lang.ClassCastException: oracle.jbo.uicli.binding.JUCtrlHierNodeBinding
/*JUCtrlValueBindingRef*/JUCtrlHierNodeBinding tableRowRef =
/*(JUCtrlValueBindingRef)*/(JUCtrlHierNodeBinding)this.getParagraphTreeTable().getRowData();
try
paragraphPk = (Double)tableRowRef.getRow().getAttribute("pk");
catch (Exception ex) {
System.err.println ("backingToc: exception at get attribute"+ex);
String paragraphPk_str = paragraphPk.toString();
System.err.println("backingToc: before store");
IMS_UserSystemState.storeCurrentParagraphNumber(paragraphPk_str);

How to display the path of selected node of a tree table.

Hi,
I have one use case where I have to display the path of node of tree table which is selected one.
e.g.
Suppose the tree table is like this.
Folder1(root)
          ->folder2
          ->folder3
                    ->folder4
Now when I select this folder1 then path display should be "/folder1(root)"
when i select the folder4 then path should be "/folder1(root)/folder3/folder4"
Hope this one will help to understand my use case..
Thanks

Full Path of selected File

Hi together,
in our programming project we are facing a problem with
handling of files.
Due to the security it is not possible to handle local files
via flash.
This is what I figured out by searching via google.
But is it possible to get just the full path of a user
selected file?
Scenario
The flash file we are using is embedded in a local stand
alone application,
i.e. it is not on the server and also not embedded in html,
php, jsp, ...
User clicks on a button. A pop-up window displays the
directory structure.
User can navigate to a directory within local drive and
select a file.
Currently we only get the file name like process.pdf
But we also want to have the full path like
C:\Documents\Project1\process.pdf
So we only need this full-path string. We don't want to do
anything with the selected file with flash
How is this possible, to get full file path with flash by
using flex 3?
Thanks a lot
K.K.

Sounds like you need to be using AIR

Path/Direct Selection tool problems

So, I switched form cc to cc 2014. Because it seems, that everything works fine in the newer Version. But now I realized some issues with the Path Selection Tool. Sometimes I need to select multiple forms or anchor-points with the tool, but while I’m trying to select a form all the locked form layers are selected at the same time. Trying to deselect the locked form via ****+Click doesn’t work. The locked layer is still selected, but without showing the anchor-points. This is annoying. And: This was an issue that was resolved in Photoshop CC, or am I wrong?
Besides that, I have a lot crashing-issues after updating to photoshop cc 2014.

OMG OMG OMG it's working!! So I wasn't using that Chrome plug-in that was mentioned in the article you sent, but I decided to see what would happen if I completely trashed Chrome. I did that, restarted, reset my InDesign preferences again, and I can MOVE THINGS!!
Thank you soooooooooo much. It's a bummer that I had to get rid of Chrome, but I'm just FINE using Safari at least until I get this book project done and can maybe investigate further.

Create ASM Disk Groups cannot see Disk Path to select during installation

Hello Guys,
I am setting up 2 node RAC on 11gR2 and Linux.
I have configured all the pre-installation steps that are required to run Grid Setup as per my understanding.
I have configure SAN partitions using multipath.
I can see my SAN volume when i query multipath -l
Then i configured the raw partitions by oracleasm. Configured and then created mount points:
/dev/oracleasm/disks/
CRSVOL1 DATAVOL1 FRAVOL1
Later on I created the disks using oracle asm command:
/usr/sbin/oracleasm createdisk CRSVOL1 /dev/mapper/racdbp1 and so on...
I have run /usr/sbin/oracleasm scandisks
Cleaning any stale ASM disks...
Scanning system for ASM disks...
And when i list disk with command /usr/sbin/oracleasm listdisks
it shows the disk like this on both nodes:
CRSVOL1
DATAVOL1
FRAVOL1
BUT during the installation screen when it comes to create ASM Disk Groups It shows nothing in the add disk frame, I cant select the volumes I can list, like i did above.
Any hint please?
Thanks, Imran

Thanks but my problem is very specific. I feel that i have performed all the necessary steps to get complete the step i discussed above. As per different commands all is set. But i am unable to see Disks and Disks Paths during the installation screen. This is another output to verify if the installe user have rights on the asm devices:
[grid@racnode1 mapper]$ cd /dev/oracleasm/disks/
DATAVOL1 ETSCRS1 ETSVOT1 ETSVOT3 FRAVOL1
ETSASM1 ETSCRS2 ETSVOT2 EXTRADM

brw-rw---- 1 grid asmadmin 8, 13 Oct 2 16:47 EXTRADM
I will appreciate if you can help me to get through this step... Is there anything else needs to be verified?
