Problem with Lighten/Darken Merge

I'm having a problem with the Lighten and Darken blend modes in CS6. Once I merge the layer it gets these weird bands. It is fine until I merge the layers together or export. See pictures:
I have tried different combinations of pictures and have reset Photoshop's settings. I've never have this problem before.
Thank you,
Benjamin

Figured out it's an issue with the lens profile corrections in both Lightroom and Camera Raw. More specifically, distortion correction.

Problem with index in merged projects

Dear Sir,
I have a problem with index in the master project, I can only
view the master project index keywords under the index tab. My
master project contains 2 topics besides the other sub projects. I
have created index for all sub projects indvidually and at the end
I created the master project index.
I made sure that the 'Binary Index' flag is ticked before
compilation and stil the problem is on, do somebody know what could
be the problem.

Hi,
Two points here.
Firstly, you can duplicate SSL's. (Right click on an SSL in
the projects sub-directory and select the duplicate layout option.
This will give you a copy of the original SSL).
I tend to have two SSL's - one is local and I use that every
time I test compile the project when I'm working on it.
The other is set to output to the master project. I use that
once I'm happy with the sub-project and start working with the
master project.
Second point is to be aware of how RoboHelp treats the
imported/merged .chm files from the sub projects.
It imports them into the main project master directory - then
when the master project is compiled it puts a copy of them into the
master project SSL. However, if you re-compile it doesn't overwrite
the files that are already in the master project SSL directory.
This is why you have to be aware of where the sub project
.chm files are going - you need to make sure that if you revise the
sub projects, a fresh copy of the .chm files ends up in the output
SSL directory of the master project.

Problem with Matching and Merging Step of MDM Workflow

Hi,
I have created a workflow which will first Match Step where the user will do both
Matching and Merging. Then, it will go for a process step Final Review.
Then, it will go for Branch step which is named as Decide on Check in.
There are two workflow which are launched after this step.
My workflow ran one time.
The number of records is: 19585. The Match step which is assigned to a different user is not performing.
It is a simple match based on First Name, Middle Name and Last Name.
Any suggestion?
Regards
Kaushik Banerjee

Hi Kaushik,
What do you mean with "not Performing"? One suggestion, just log in with the 'Different User' who has been assigned for the matching task, and under that user goto the matching tab, in matching tab you will find a sub tab for Workflow, I hope you can work from there, If this doesnt solve your problem, then please let us know.
Cheers,
Cherry.
Sorry problem with button;... so message came again... apologize.....

Problems with grouped and merging layers

Sometimes when I combine layered .pdf files (by dragging pages in or doing Merge Files Into a Single PDF), the layers come in grouped (by file name) and other times they do not. Why is that? Also, is there a way to ungroup layers in Acrobat?
Any help is much appreciated!
For those interested in the background, I have a bunch of layered .pdf files that I want to combine. They were created from a single large Photoshop image sliced into page-sized pieces so the files all have the same layers and the layers are arranged and named the same in every file. I want the combined PDF book to maintain these layers so the user can, with one click, turn on or off a given layer across all pages of the PDF. Clicking on a layer on every page just isn't going to cut it.
I figured I would just combine all of the single PDF pages and then merge all of the layers of a given name so that I end up with just one layer for each type. The problem is that the merging works sometimes and not others. I can't figure out why, but it works far more often when the files combine without the layers grouped. It still doesn't work all of the time, but it NEVER works if the layers come in grouped - so I figure I would start there.
I'm using Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro. I used the method outlined below to turn my layered Photoshop (CS5) files in layered PDF files:
http://www.ehow.com/how_8296095_convert-photoshop-pdf-layers.html

After hours (and hours) of debugging Acrobat, I figured out that as long as the file(s) I drop in are not at the end of the document, then no layer groups are formed - all of the layers in both files are at the top level.
If I drop a file in after all existing pages, then the layers are grouped by file name.
and
If there are layer groups then merging fails. The names of the merged layers disappear from the layer list but the conent is left permanently visible.
If the layers are not divided into groups, then merging works most of the time. I haven't figure out why it occassionaly fails this way too, but so far it's been easy to work around.
This is Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 so no chance of it being fixed - so amybe this will help someone else in the same boat.

Problems with Lightening Cable Durability

Hi! I've had the iPhone 5 for a few months and I'm already on my 3rd Lightening cable in my car. The first one got stepped on and the second fell on the car floor by my wet feet. Both cords stopped working immediately. I had the old cord in my car for years and it was way more durable and protected from damage. Has anyone else noticed durability issues?

I've had a new iPad since November '12 and I'm on my 4th cable. They keep shorting out around the tip of the connector. I agree that they are not durable enough. Personally, I preferred the 30 pin connector cords. They lasted much longer. I hope Apple does something soon about this problem. I'm tired of exchanging cords every 1.5 months.

Problem with Mail Merge to PDF

Hi there
I'm having problems with the mail merge to PDF feature of Acrobat XI, in that the process fails part way through and displays the error message 'Acrobat PDFMaker was not able to mail merge the document':
This process used to work, and still works for one of my colleagues. However I have tried using different PCs (32 bit and 64 bit Windows 7), different versions of Word (2010 and 2013) and different types of data source (Excel and Access) without success.
I would really appreciate any further suggestions.
Thanks
Rianne

Hi RV,
pls. take a look to note 1226758 under point 4 where it says:
4. Call SPAD and choose Settings -> Spool System -> Other. Select 'SP01: Number of Columns for List Display from Format'.
Maybe you have to take care about point 1-3 , depending on which supp.package level you are. for my i have only changed the settings in SPAD, now it works.
best regards, Martin

Problem with Clip Usage and merged clips in CS6

The 'Clip Usage' drop-down menus don't seem to work in Premiere CS6 for merged clips. The info bar at the top of the project window correctly lists the number of times the viedo and audio from the clip has been used, and the downward-pointing arrow appears, but when you click on it... nothing happens. Same's true of the 'Video Usage' column in the main body of the project window. Non-merged clips work just fine.
Anyone know if this is just a problem with my project, or if it's a bug in Premiere? Had a lot of trouble with merged clips in CS5.5, and was hoping they'd be solved by CS6 - I've been using Creative Suite for a long time, and the lack of good merged clips support was always one of the challenges in persuading other indie editors to switch over from FCP...
Thanks!

...and the lack of good merged clips support was always one of the challenges in persuading other indie editors to switch over from FCP...
I guess they just have to weigh that up against the lack of support they got from Apple for FCP in its entirety.

ICloud not syncing and Contact problems with merging duplicates

I was having problems with the syncing of my notes app. When I got the iphone 5 I had since using Mountain Lion I had started to make use of the fact that the notes sync across iCloud. Great. Although not for long. Everything was going fine notes were syncing across devices but then spontaneously they stopped syncing for no apparent reason. I then went to look in settings, looked online and all through discussion forums. Switching notes on and off on icloud both on the macbook and on my iphone. Restarting devices etc etc. iCloud itself online was not able to access the notes app. I kept getting error messages that I would submit to apple. Then I finally relqinquished and unhooked the iCloud accounts from the computer and phone. And at the sacrifice of losing albums in my photostream they sprung back to syncing.
Then the real problem happened. I had selected to keep a copy of my address book in contacts when I unhooked my computer just in case. When everything linked back up again, I then had duplicates in my address book. Not 1 (this can happen just having icloud active) but 5 sets of duplicates, granted I had kept a version from when I unhooked. So I looked around again for how I could quickly and easily get rid of duplicates. Following suggestions online I go into contacts>cards>look for duplicates. I had 1200 or somthing duplicates, so naturally when given the option "would you like to merge the info in these duplicates I click yes. The MacBook starts to chugg away. Its gonna take a while. So I come back later. And before returning to CONTACTS, go to send a message from MESSAGES and I notice that 80% of the threads have no name. I go back to CONTACTS and WHAM 100s of contacts disappeared in the merge never to be retrieived again. You cant restore CONTACTS from Time Machine as it is just mirrors the contacts that you have in present time. Restoring phone doesn't work becasue it just downloads from iCloud after it has restored. TOTALLY RIDICULOUS. I am livid.

what I mean is - create a complete new contact on your contacts and select a picture for it from your Mac. Then set it as "make this my card"
Once you have done that - presumably it will sync with iCloud - have a look and the contact should appear on your iPhone too.
On your iPhone go on Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendar> Under "Contacts: in "My Info" select That new contact you created on your Mac.
Let me know if that works.
-On another note, so what you are saying is, if I take my 15' Macbook Pro in and they have none of the old ones in stock, they just give you a Retina display one! Did you take it to them for the contact issue you were having or something else?

Performance problem with MERGE statement

Version : 11.1.0.7.0
I have an insert statement like following which is taking less than 2 secs to complete and inserts around 4000 rows:
INSERT INTO sch.tab1
          (c1,c2,c3)
SELECT c1,c2,c3
   FROM sch1.tab1@dblink
WHERE c1 IN (SELECT c1 FROM sch1.tab2@dblink);I wanted to change it to a MERGE statement just to avoid duplicate data. I changed it to following :
MERGE INTO sch.tab1 t1
USING (SELECT c1,c2,c3
   FROM sch1.tab1@dblink
WHERE c1 IN (SELECT c1 FROM sch1.tab2@dblink) t2
ON (t1.c1 = t2.c1)
WHEN NOT MATCHED THEN
INSERT (t1.c1,t1.c2,t1.c3)
VALUES (t2.c1,t2.c2,t2.c3);The MERGE statement is taking more than 2 mins (and I stopped the execution after that). I removed the WHERE clause subquery inside the subquery of the USING section and it executed in 1 sec.
If I execute the same select statement with the WHERE clause outside the MERGE statement, it takes just 1 sec to return the data.
Is there any known issue with MERGE statement while implementing using above scenario?

Are your join columns indexed?
Yes, the join columns are indexed.
You are doing a remote query inside the merge; remote queries can slow things down. Do you have to select all thr rows from the remote table? What if you copied them locally using a materialized view?Yes, I agree that remote queries will slow things down. But the same is not happening while select, insert and pl/sql. It happens only when we are using MERGE. I have to test what happens if we use a subquery refering to a local table or materialized view. Even if it works, I think there is still a problem with MERGE in case of remote subqueries (atleast till I test local queries). I wish some one can test similar scenarios so that we can know whether it is a genuine problem or some specific problem from my side.

BTW, I haven't had great luck with MERGE either :(. Last time I tried to use it I found it faster to use a loop with insert/update logic.
Edited by: riedelme on Jul 28, 2009 12:12 PM:) I used the same to overcome this situation. I think MERGE needs to be still improved functionally from Oracle side. I personally feel that it is one of the robust features to grace SQL or PL/SQL.

Problems with Merging Account

Hi Experts,
I have 2 problems with merging accounts:
1) Opportunity is not moved from source data to master data. I do not know why. Central BP is changable.
2) Contact Person is only copied, not moved. This causes problems later on when we want to delete the source data.
Any idea how to solve this?
Best regards,
Cristina

Hi Arno:
First of all: Thanks for answering my thread!
The problem with opportunities in my system is, that they are not merged at all, not even with the batch job. I checked trx. BUSWU02. Node CRM370 is assigned to variant CLEAR_REP.
Also the central Business Partner in opportunity remains changable, once the opportunity was saved.
Anything else I have to check??
Best regards,
Cristina

Problems with loading / saving settings of the lightening filter

I've problems with Photoshop CS2 / Windows 2000. If I open the dialog for the lightening filter, the list of the standard-settings is empty. And I can't also save any custom setting.
In the folder of the filter-settings and all standard-setting-files are available.
I tried to rename and reinstall the prefs-file and the whole program. But without success.
What's the reason? File system (NTFS)? User-rights in the file-settings? Registry-entries? Who knows a way to solve this problem?

Problems with 3-way calls, merge calls?

loving my iPhone but having problems with 3-way calling and merging calls. tried to be on one call and have another person call (from a regular land line) and it went straight to voicemail for them. in addition, was on a regular call and tried to add another call AND tried to merge, none of the above has worked. i know this is included in the calling plan.
anyone having similar problems?

Per the Apple note in the link below, "Note: While iPhone is actively transferring data over EDGE—downloading a webpage, for example—you may not be able to receive calls. Incoming calls may go to voicemail."
Perhaps this is what was happening.
