Preboot imaging messing with the computername script

I have created a Windows 7 image with sysprep/unattend.xml : licensing, vbs script that change the computername to serial and last runonceex installing drivers, novell client and zenwork agent then cleanup and reboot.
I use a vmware snapshot made in sysprep audit mode to be able to test it.
The image works greate every time when running the finished image in vmware from capture ready snapshot but when capturing it with img -mp and later booting the image the computername script does'nt work as it should.
The ZW agent and computername is set but... when right klicking Computer then properties, computer name said that "(the new name will be set after next reboot)", only when relogin 1-2 times as administrator.
I have tried to automate one more reboot, modify the order of computername script to run erlier etc.
I use the removemask to disable SIDchanger so that only sysprep takes care of it, first because I guessed a SID conflict was creating my problem, without any luck.
I know it's a bit blur info of my problem but I wonder if "maybe someone" have had a simular problem as me?
Maybe you got any ideas of why?

This look like the same issue I have.
I did'nt understand exactly what the fix in the thread was but I make my image from a snapshot taken in audit mode on a new installed win7 after shift+ctrl+f3 during welcome wizard. I have installed a few hotfixes, sp1 and my installation scripts.
The image is a scripted unattend solution that drag all drivers, clients and ZCM agent from smb shares and exept the name "feature" every thing else works perfectly.
I pxeboot machine in to zcm bash and capture it with "img -mp imagename.zmg".
If I look at the vm before sysprep I have one driver in device manager that is not installed but is this an issue?

I had completed my iDVD project and burned a disc. It worked great! Then someone messed with the project and put a red frame around the opening screen. Now when I burn the project, it no longer has the opening frame. How can I fix?

I had completed my iDVD project, a Wedding Slideshow with pictures and music, and burned it on a disc. It worked great! Then someone messed with the original project on my computer and clicked around and put a red frame around the opening screen that has the Wedding theme with music. Now when I burn the project to make more DVDs, it burns but no longer has the opening frame. It immediately opens to the iMovie slideshow. How can I fix so I can burn the entire project with opening frames?

As Bengt suggested make a disk image of the successfully burned DVD using Disk Utility. Then you can burn copies any time you need one.
In the future once you have the project as you want it save it as a disk image via the File ➙ Save as Disk Image menu option. This will separate the encoding process from the burn process.
To check the encoding mount the disk image and launch DVD Player and play it. If it plays OK with DVD Player the encoding was good.
You can then burn it to disk with Disk Utility at the slowest speed available to assure the best burn quality. Always use top quality media: Verbatium, Maxell or Taiyo Yuden DVD-R are the most recommended in these forums.

Firefox came up with the unresponsive script message and now if frozen?

Firefox came up with the unresponsive script message. I clicked 'stop script' but now Firefox has frozen and is not responding to anything I do. I cannot click on anything. It will not let me close it down, uninstall it or shut down my computer.

Upgraded to FF 33 and installed English dictionary. Now FF is hanging frequently in www.morningstar.com and I believe elsewhere with the following:
Warning: Unresponsive Script
Script: chrome://browser/content/browser.js.17006
I do NOT understand the "chrome" reference.
This is quite annoying. I upgraded to FF 33 in order to try to get back spell checking in Morningstar posts which I lost back at FF 24, as I recall, but it did NOT solve the problem. Now I have this mess.

How Do You Make an Image Flow with the Text?

Hello all,
I am using CS4 InDesign on Windows Vista. I am fairly new to Indesign but try to do my research and homework well before asking what I hope is not a really dumb question.
I am writing a book of approx. 350 pages that is an illustrated encyclopedia of 156 plants and their oils.
Each 2 page spread is a single entry for a plant. The graphics frames on each spread are identical in size, position and styles for a consistent look throughout the document.As you can see (hopefully) each page is a single column. See screenshot below
In order to overcome my first problem of positioning and sizing the graphics frames uniformly, I created the master pages with the graphics placeholders sized, positioned and formatted to my liking. This worked wonderfully and I placed all of my 300+ graphics by simply over riding each frame.
Then in my editing I decided to add another 2 page spread somewhere in the middle of this fairly large document.
What a NIGHTMARE. The text predictably shifted but now ALL of my graphics were no longer associated with the corresponding text! Arrrgghhh.I had not anticipated this behavior (used MS Word for 15 years) or I would have done something different.
3 hours later I finished re -"placing" the images associated with the correct text.
I researched the help file and found out about the neccessity of anchoring graphics to text. I have read through the threads in this forum, followed links to "indesignsecrets.com/make-an-image-flow-with-the-text" and " Working with anchored objects by Anne Marie Concepcion"
My concerns are this.
An inline graphic places the graphic back onto your text layer for some reason ( Previously my graphics each had their own layer)
Not wanting to start (again) from scratch with my graphics I converted them to inline/custom anchored objects.
But to select then cut then paste every pre existing graphic to anchor it inline seems to be cumbersome and counter intuitive although the top smaller graphic did position well and the text seemed to wrap ok.
When I placed the larger bottom graphic on the left facing page using custom positioning I was not able to get the text to wrap at all.( The in line anchoring did not seem to allow for positioning on anything but the 'Y' axis).
It seems that there would be a simpler way to place text and graphics where you want them and have them associate and flow together (or not) when you want them to and have text wrap easily around an anchored object without keyboard gymnastics. It would seem that the concept of a certain graphic being associated or linked with certain text would not be an unusual concept in desktop publishing.
Am I missing something?
Can you place an anchored graphics frame on the master page with your desired options?
How would this be done if possible?
Is there any other way (i.e grouping) to keep graphics associated with the desired text so that it flows together if extra pages are added?
Is the fact that my graphics frames are on my master pages responsible for my text wrap difficulty? (I have text wrap enabled on my master pages)
Are there any settings, redundant or otherwise, I need to be aware of?
Thank you in advance for any suggestions or directions
L.N.

Hello Again,
Thank You Bob but I am still a little fuzzy on this. I have already created object styles for the graphics frames. For instance the small graphic underneath the heading (Its a drop of oil) has an object style applied. Now I checked and it has the anchored object options checked in the style dialog box. When I reapply the style to the next similar graphics nothing happens. It is still not anchored. Do I need to create a new style based on "nothing" add my effects plus the anchoring options? Basically start over. If thats what I need to do thats OK. As to your instruction that object styles could accomodate this anchoring thing...thats what I thought too but somehow I can't get it to work. See object style dialog box screenshot below:
For the larger graphic on the bottom of the left facing page. I still cannot get any text to wrap. In the screenshot example the text describing this particular plant doesn't go to the bottom of the page so the wrapping issue on this page is moot. However I have some entries where the body of the description is more involved and does go to the bottom of the page and the text WOULD need to wrap around the plant (larger ) graphic.
Hi there Harb, Yes I found out early on that object styles can't apply size (that would be on my wish list for sure) That is why I found that creating my graphics frames on the master page with the correct size, effects and positioning tickled me so much. Can you believe I originally went through and MANUALLY resized and repositioned each and every 300+ graphics in this book but it still wasn't right. I'm nothing if not persistent. (Now if I could just get my grown sons to pick up their socks!)
Anyway the master page graphics frames idea would be perfect if I could get the images to anchor in their respective spots on the master page as well.
For your second suggestion. I am not clear about why I would need to break the threads of each spread so that each spread is a seperate article. Is the threading issue the thing that is causing my text to move on leaving their associated graphics behind? If so how do I go about doing this?
So to recap:
1. I need to know if I can modify my object style or recreate from scratch with the anchoring option (as I said it didn't work)
2. Can't get text to wrap around the Custom anchored graphic at bottom of page at all
3. Im not clear on the breaking the threading on the spreads
I am willing to go back through and start from scratch (new master pages, styles etc ) if neccesary. This book is the culmination of 7 years of research and artwork.Basically the project is DONE. Now if I can just format it correctly.
I can't thank you both enough for your time, suggestions, expertise and patience.
Thanks again

Runtime-Error after deploying a mapping with the generated script

For example a very easy scenario:
1. Create a table and a view in a DB-schema, witch ist registered as WB-target-schema with the following scripts:
create view v1(c1) as select 'a' c1 from dual;
create table t1(c1 varchar2(1));
2. Import the table and the view into a OWB-module
3. Create a mapping ‘m1’
4. Drag and drop view and table into the mapping
5. Draw an arrow from the view-column to the table-column
6. Save and close the mapping
7. Mark the mapping in the ‘Design Center’ and klick the ‘Generate’-Button
8. Save the generated script ‘M1.pls’ to file
9. Run the script in SQL*Plus, connected with the target-schema (without using the Control Center Manager)
=> very easy right now ;-)
10. Start the mapping with the following script will produce the following error
SQL> declare
2 v_status varchar2(100);
3 begin
4 m1.main(v_status);
5 end;
6 /

ORA-06512: at line 4
If i delete or comment the four WB_RT_MAPAUDIT_UTIL-calls - it work´s fine!
But is this a good advise?
What exactly does the wrapped package ‘WB_RT_MAPAUDIT_UTIL do?
Thanks
jwehner

I just ran into the same problem myself. I used the same technique of saving the generated OWB script to file and then compiling it through sqlplus. When I used the "Deploy" option for the mapping, then the problem went away. So when OWB is deploying the code it seems to be setting something internally that doesn't get set when you simple compile the PL/SQL. I don't know of any workaround to this. I will need it eventually, since I don't want to use the UI to deploy to various test environments and production. Maybe the built-in scripting language is the way to go.

either Select All and drag to the left (turn on the Lock Automation menuItem if you have any automation curves)
or
use the Cycle Region to export the exact length you wish:

Help! Question, how do I move an image along with the text

New to InDesign and I'm creating a how-to brochure of sorts for my business and as I'm making edits/updates I realize I need to insert another picture at the beginning of the document. I already have a bunch of other images throughout the document in specific places that need to remain with the text they are wrapped around. If I try to insert a new picture at the beginning of the document and wrap the text, all of the text moves down throughout the document but the images do not. That means none of the images are in the correct place anymore. Is there a way to make sure if I insert a new picture or text at any place in the document all of the following images move with the text they are by? I'm sure its a simple fix, I just can't figure it out. Thanks.

My iMac 20 inch 2.4 has developed a very annoying flicker. It looks like somebody is messing with the brightness but than really quick. Any ideas on how to solve this problem ?

My almost four year old iMac 20 inch 2.4 ghz Intel Core 2 Duo has recently been giving me a headache. The screen is flickering a lot. It looks like somebody is messing with the screen brightness at a really fast rate. I have no idea what it could be but have tried to recalibrate the screen, stopped certain dashboard apps, even changed the desktop picture and screensaver. Has anybody else had the same problem or could somebody help me in getting rid of this flicker. It feels like it is a software issue as it happens intermittently rather than continuous.
Pleas help me !

I want to add image name with the extension to db after upload, Can any body help?

Hello there,
Earlier in the week I created PHP photo/image upload form so clients will be able to upload to my site, it worked very well uploading image to designated directory to the C:/path/ but there is more that I would like to do with the form, and that is to write the image name with the extension, “Joplateau.jpg” for example in the database after upload. I wanted to use hiddenField but it's not working for me, may be i am not doing it right. If any one has an idea how to do this please let me know, and thanks in advance.
Thanks in a lot.

Probably externalInterface, and maybe BrowserManager.
But both of those are much harder and messier than flashvars.

Image quality with the Canon 5Dmark 2 vs.. The 5Dmark3?

I use Leica lenses on a canon body with an adapter. Is the image quality with the Canon 5Dmark 2 vs.the 5Dmark3 similar? Any reason to get one vs. the other? I like the idea, that I can change the viewfinder screens on the Mk 2. Any overwhelming improvement of the 5Dmark 3 that would warrant consideration? Thanks to those who have used both camera bodies.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

The primary advantage of a Mk3 over the Mk2 is the AF. More points and it can focus with f/8. If your Leica lens is manual focus then you wouldn't care about it. The 5D3 has a little of an advantage in the ISO but not a huge factor. Other than that I'd say IQ is the same.

Currently using Photoshop CS5, but with a replacement computer and upgrade to Yosemite, keep being told I need to install the legacy Java 6. Currently, Photoshop won't even open. I absolutely do not want to subscribe, don't want to mess with the cloud, just want to buy an upgrade to something that will run for a while longer. I don't care about Lightroom, Bridge, Illustrator, etc.; most of those I've deleted over the years. But I do use Photoshop - or would if it would still run. What options do I have?

This is the java you need for photoshop cs5 to work on mac os x 10.10 Yosemite
https://support.apple.com/kb/DL1572?locale=en_US
It's also possible you may have to reinstall photoshop cs5 even after installing the above java, because sometimes the upgrade to mac os x 10.10 messes up the photoshop cs5 installation.
You can download photoshop cs5 from here if you don't already have the install media.
