Playback issues from files compressed using the Divx Encoder
Hey there,
As the title implies, Im trying to edit Hypercam screen capture footage that was compressed with the Divx encoder it comes with.
The footage then gets exported to an .avi format, and in windows it plays fine, HOWEVER, when I import the footage into premiere, all manner of horrible things happen, I have imported different footage encoded to the same format with no issues however. Has anyone else had an issue similar to this?
the Rig:
2.4 quad core
3 gbyte of ram
nvidia 8800 gts driver vers 182.xx
Thanks
If it is possible to NOT use the DivX CODEC, jump at that opportunity. It is a delivery format, pure and simple, and is not meant to edit, and does not edit well.
Eddie's links will cover converting, but quality will be very poor.
When faced with this CODEC, I use DigitalMedia Converter (~US$50), and it handles it fine. It just does not improve the quality, one iota. If there is no way around DivX (or Xvid), I can recommend the above. One must have the DivX CODEC (free) installed, but it sounds like you do. BTW, per Eddie's link, you WILL want to convert to DV-AVI Type II with PCM/WAV 48KHz 16-bit Audio. Again, you will need the MS DV CODEC installed, but most systems have this already.
Good luck,
Hunt

I am new with iMac and I am trying to copy some file from my external HDD that a used with my PC but it does not let me also I can't delete anything from this HDD using the finder. Can somebody help me , please?
No, unfortunately, when you format a drive, it will erase all the contents. So you will need to find a temporary "storage" place to put the stuff using a PC so you have access to it. Then reformat using Disk Utility (Applications > Utilities). If only using with mac, format Mac OS Extended (Journaled) and use GUID Partition scheme under Partitions/Options. After formatting, you can drag the files back.

I previously had PS CS5 Trial installed but removed it using both Control Panel Programs and deleting all files from the CS5 directory on Program Files. I then installed a purchased product from Adobe disc using the serial number on the case. But when I try to launch it, I get a screen headed Photoshop CS5 Extended Trial. It asks for the serial number and says that my trial has expired. It rejects the serial number from the Adobe case saying "This Serial Number is not valid for this product". It thinks that I still have the expired Trial Version installed. How do I convince it (the program) that the Trial Version is long gone and the currently installed product was installed with a valid and accepted serial number????
Let me know how it goes. Go into your Adobe account and register your serial number asap.

That way, should you lose it or you need support, it is on record that it's yours and you can fetch your s/n it from anywhere.
There are too may sad stories here, where people forgot and the box is buried or lost.

Where do I find in my iMAC the files I tranfered from my PC using the Migration Assistant. I could not find a setting to what folder I could to set to transfer it before I started to transfer.
Migration Assistant creates a new user on your system and puts the files in that users home folder. Setup Assistant would transfer the files into the user folder of the user account created when originally setting up your Mac. Setup Assistant is what runs when you first turn on and setup your Mac and Migration Assistant is in the Utilities folder inside the Applications folder.

I do not achieve to transfer the files from my PC using the W.M.A. The whole process is normal up to the point where every machine must recognize the numerical code. After that the assistant indicates that he is inspecting the computer and not show the list of transference (files, emails, etc.). In this point nothing is parked and done any more. Which can be the problem? Thank you.
I think you posted to the wrong place. This if for iMacs 2006 & older. I asked the host to mover you to Lion.
What version of X are you running?
Here is how to find out what version of Mac OS you are running:
Click on the blue apple in the upper left hand of the screen.
click on this icon
Click on the first line, "About This Mac"
Most of these are numbers & that's what we want.

Firefox 33 doesn't display a pdf file when using the response object

Cannot save files or use the undo function in InDesign CC
As of this morning, I am not able to save files or use the Undo function in InDesign CC. Tried many fixes but nothing has worked. I have a ton of work to get done today -- any solutions for this???
Im viewing this thread because its just happened to me again... my solution is below.
Im currently running the latest version of indesign cc (9.2.1) on my brand new 13" macbook pro. (OSX 10.9.4)
As noted earlier in this thread, when this happens, before you give up and close in frustration, EXPORT the file as IDML, and your all good!
Ive had this issue on several occasions using Indesign CC since October. Here are my 2 'Usual Suspects' when this occurs:
1. culprit: SUITCASE FUSION 5 – deactivate 'auto activation' from within Indesign Prefs. In some cases, i didn't even restart Indesign (much less my computer) for this to work.
(menu: INDESIGN/PREFERENCES/ SUITCASE FUSION 5 AUTO ACTIVATION PREFS (bottom of submenu list) Uncheck the top box, 'Auto Activate....')
Im assuming this was rechecked to auto-activate after an update. Hasn't happened in a while—but sure enough, the auto-activate box was checked again.
Its a pain having to manually-activate fonts, but its alot easier than redoing a bunch of work!
2. culprit: CRASH PLAN (online backup)– actually, ive seen this happen with a couple of backup programs. I don't know that this is for sure an issue, but it did resolve the saving issue earlier this year. I just pause backup for a few hours, then resume. Seems to be ok.
Steps i took:
Quit Indesign CC (AFTER EXPORTING the file as IDML!)
Pause backup within CrashPlan.
Restart Indesign CC. -
I have hidden unwanted books from the purchased area of the iBooks store, but they're are still appearing on the front page of iOS as cloud downloads, is there a way to remove these from iBooks without using the hide iCloud books button?
Let me explain a little more. I had downloaded a lot of free books in the past as a trial when iBooks was first released and since then I have decided I no longer want them, because of this I hid them from the purchased section of the iBooks store. The 5 books left are ones I decided to keep as seen in the following picture.
This is how it appears in iBooks on my mac. There are 4 books downloaded and 1 book that I have decided not to download at this time. I would still like to keep this book available in the cloud incase I want to download it again in the future. You’ll notice that hide iCloud books is not selected, if I wanted to hide the book that I have chosen to keep in the cloud, but have not downloaded yet I could.
This is exactly how I think this feature should work. If you have hidden a book from your purchases it should not show up in the mac Ibooks app. (I am aware you can never actually delete a purchase, just hide them and that hidden purchases can be restored to your account from within the account management section of the iBooks store).
The iOS app is working differently for me. Here is a picture of the purchased tab on the iBooks store in iOS Ibooks. Again notice that pictures of Lilly is still yet to be downloaded. This is how I expected it to look.
If we visit the front page of iOS iBooks the view is very different from what I expected. Here we can see the 4 books I wanted to keep on my device and have downloaded. We can also see the 1 book I wanted to keep, but did not want to store locally on the device and left in iCloud (Pictures of Lilly). However we can also see all the books I had hidden from the purchased section of my iTunes account and which I believe should no-longer be visible, Dracula, frankenstein etc…
I am aware of the hide iCloud books button within the iOS app, but I did not need to use this to hide the books I had removed from the my purchased section of the iBooks store on the mac, why are they still appearing in iOS?
I’m still not sure if this is a software glitch or not. This article suggests to me that books can be hidden, but I had already completed these steps.
https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201322
A browse of google also suggests people may have been able to hide past purchases from the front page of iBooks on iOS in the past.
In case there was an issue with syncing I tried logging in and out of my iTunes account via settings in iOS. Force closing the app, disabling automatic downloads and removing my device from iTunes in the cloud. Syncing with iTunes on the mac did not correct the issue either.
Interestingly I have the same issue on my iPhone 6 running iOS 8.3 as I do on my iPad mini suggesting that this might be an issue either with my account or with iOS iBooks software in general.
If there is a way to remove the already hidden iBooks in your account from the front page of iBooks on iOS without using the hide iCloud downloads button? Please help community!My apologies for the lack of photos, here is my post again with photos.

How to get Bursting file to use the same template as selected by user
I have created an XML publisher bursting control file for a standard Oracle report Direct Debit letter.
The user wants to be able to select from a number of different letter templates which is ok except that the bursting control file is fixed to use one template.
How can I get the bursting control file to use the same letter template as selected by the user when running the report ?
I am using XML Publisher 5.6.3 with bursting patch.Try these following, which come to my mind now as of now.
In the bursting file, you can do the filtering and apply different template..
<xapi:template type="rtf" location="/usr/template1" filter=".//DIRECT_DEBIT[./parameter_or_element='first_template']"></xapi:template>
<xapi:template type="rtf" location="/usr/template2" filter=".//DIRECT_DEBIT[./parameter_or_element='second_template']"></xapi:template>
second option..
you can replace the element from the xml in the bursting control file.
${ELEMENT_NAME}
can be used in the template name i guess..
<xapi:template type="rtf" locale=""
location="xdo://AR.${SHORT_NAME}.en.US/?getSource=true" translation="" filter="">
</xapi:template>
But in this short name has to be in XML file...
I haven;t tried it...wil try it wheni get time.. -
HT4889 How do change the ownership of files after using the migration assistant?
After I copied all of my files across using the migration assistant, the tool is nice enough to assume that I want to use the same ID that I had on my PC. This is not my case as I am using a different name on the mac. How do I get the files from the other user name? I have already set the sharing permissions so that I can see them on both user ids, however the only way I can see to update is to copy them all. As I have about 1TB of files, this is a little inconvenient. Any thoughts?
Thanks. It got me on the right track. At the end, I copied the 1TB over and just deleted the other profile. I tried to set the ownership to my regular ID by removing the lock from "Get Info" but I still had to move them out of the other "user" folder.

Was the card issued in and have a billing address in the country whose iTunes Store you wish to use? If not, that's why it's being rejected.

is there a capability to save/export the new airport 2TB time capsule settings file when using the iphone/ipad airport utility. set-up wasn't a problem but the "file" button does not exist on the latest airport utility app v6.3 to save the configuration file.
the "file" button does not exist on the latest airport utility app v6.3 to save the configuration file.
Sounds like you are a bit confused with version numbers.
Latest AirPort Utility version for the iPhone / iPad is 1.3.3. There is no option or capability to export/import settings on the iOS version(s) of AirPort Utility.....although you could take a series of screen shots and save them for future reference.
AirPort Utility 6.3.x is found on a Mac.....not on iPhone / iPad. Export and Import options are found under the File menu in 6.3.x. -
Get File Information using the Document ID in Javascript
I store in a custom list the Document Id of a linked document. I need to retrieve some metadata - at least the filename - of that document. I have tried using the Search REST API specifying something like "DocID:INGX1-2-26" in my search query,
but nothing is returned, nothing found.
Is there any other way to get the file info when all I have is the Document ID? In the managed code, I could use the Microsoft.Office.DocumentManagement.dll which provides a way to get the file info using the DocId, but this is not available in Javascript.
Any ideas?
thanks.Hi,
As a workaround, we can create a custom web service with the Microsoft.Office.DocumentManagement.dll, then you can call the web service using JavaScript.
