Problem with small .pct files from PC becoming big when saved on Mac
For a big database project with Photoshop images, I create bitmap files in PS CS3 and save them as .pct files. They are 4-5 KB each.
I then email them to someone with a Mac (all versions from CS2-CS5) who must open the files in PS to get the Mac database to see them. When she saves them on her Mac without making any changes, the files are 60-70 KB.
How can we preserve the small files on the Mac?
Thanks!
1. When she receives the files in my email, they are still small. When she opens them in Photoshop and saves them, they become about 12 times bigger.
Is there a way on the Mac to strip out the thumbnails and other info that is making the files bigger?
2. The database program, Panorama, has the user link to the images, which are in separate folders. However, the image does not appear in Panorama unless she opens the file in the Mac version of Photoshop and saves it, even without making changes. I assume that is an oddity of Panorama, but we are stuck with it.
Thanks so much for your quick response.

Hi, I have problem with importing MOV files from SJCAM 4000. MOV files are in supported formats for Adobe Premiere Elements 11. But if I'm importing MOV file, only audio part is imported, video part is not imported. How can I solve this problem?
haben
From looking at the specifications of your camera (SJCam 4000), we know already what video compression your camera is using. It is H.264.
A H.264.mov file should be supported by Premiere Elements 11. On what computer operating system is your Premiere Elements 11 running?
Do you have the latest version of QuickTime installed on your computer? And, are you running QuickTime and Premiere Elements 11 from a
User Account with administrative privileges? Please go to Premiere Elements 11 Publish+Share/Computer/QuickTime to confirm that you find
presets there for the QuickTime choice there.
What are the properties of these H.264.mov files - is it 1080p30 (1920 x 1080p30) or something else? Do you know if this camera is recording with a variable or
a constant frame rate?
Please review and consider and then we will decide what next.
Thank you.

I have a problem with opening downloaded files from the internet; zip types. Can you tell me an app to open these types of formats of files?
It should unzip if you double-cick.
What are you seeing happen when you do that?
Select a .zip file in the Finder and Get Info (cmd-i). What is set for it to Open With. It should be Archive Utility. -
Problem with loading XML file from directory.
Hello everyone.
*1)* I have directory defined by DBA. I have read, write privileges. I can read file from this directory using UTL_FILE, I can create file in this directory using UTL_FILE. I tried many times and it does not seem to be any problems.
*2)* I have very simple XML table (with just one column of xmltype). I can insert into this column using:
insert into temp_xml values (
Xmltype ('<something></something>')
*3)* When executing
insert into temp_xml values (
Xmltype (
bfilename('XML_LOCATION', 'sample.xml'),
nls_charset_id('AL16UTF8')
I'm receiving an error:
Error report:
SQL Error: ORA-22288: file or LOB operation FILEOPEN failed
ORA-06512: at "SYS.DBMS_LOB", line 523
ORA-06512: at "SYS.XMLTYPE", line 287
ORA-06512: at line 1
22288. 00000 - "file or LOB operation %s failed\n%s"
*Cause: The operation attempted on the file or LOB failed.
*Action: See the next error message in the error stack for more detailed
information. Also, verify that the file or LOB exists and that
the necessary privileges are set for the specified operation. If
the error still persists, report the error to the DBA.
*4)* Previously I was receiving more descriptive errors like permission denied, file not exists etc. This time there is no clear description apart from "file or LOB operation %s failed\n%s". I'm sure I can access this file in this directory (I used UTL_FILE to dbms_output the content).
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Marcin JankowskiHi Marcin,
Welcome to the forums.
One very important thing with Oracle XML : please always give your database version, all four digits (e.g. 10.2.0.4).
Does the directory resides on the same machine as the database? Which OS?
Does any of the following work ?
DECLARE
v_lob CLOB;
v_file BFILE;
BEGIN
v_file := BFILENAME('XML_LOCATION','sample.xml');
DBMS_LOB.createtemporary(v_lob, true);
DBMS_LOB.fileopen(v_file);
DBMS_LOB.loadfromfile(v_lob, v_file, DBMS_LOB.getlength(v_file));
INSERT INTO temp_xml VALUES( xmltype(v_lob) );
DBMS_LOB.fileclose(v_file);
DBMS_LOB.freetemporary(v_lob);
END;
DECLARE
v_lob CLOB;
BEGIN
v_lob := DBMS_XSLPROCESSOR.read2clob('XML_LOCATION', 'sample.xml', nls_charset_id('AL16UTF8'));
INSERT INTO temp_xml VALUES( xmltype(v_lob) );
END;

Problem with opening PDF files from JSF page using SDO
Hi all,
I'm new with JSF and was attempting to read a PDF file from a Database using SDO and JSF. The code below throws an exception when casting from DataObject to Blob. The getLcDoc() method was created by WSAD when I dragged an SDO relational record onto the JSF page. This method returns an DataObject type which I tried casting to a Blob type before using it further. However, an exception is thrown.
Any feedback is appreciated.
Arv
try {
FacesContext faces = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
HttpServletResponse response =(HttpServletResponse) faces.getExternalContext().getResponse();
Blob file= (Blob)getLcDoc().get("ATTACH");
int iLength = (int)(file.length());
response.setHeader("Content-type", "application/pdf");
response.setHeader("Content-Disposition", "inline; filename=Attachment");
response.setHeader("Expires","0");
response.setHeader("Cache-Control","must-revalidate, post-check=0, pre-check=0");
response.setHeader("Pragma","public");
response.setContentLength(iLength);
ServletOutputStream os = response.getOutputStream();
InputStream in = null;
in = file.getBinaryStream();
byte buff[] = new byte[1024];
while (true) {
int i = in.read(buff);
if (i<0) break;
os.write(buff,0,i);
os.flush();
os.close();
} catch(Exception ex){
System.out.println("Error while reading file : " + ex.getMessage());
}Hi...I found out that there is actually no need to use a Blob object at all. You can simply call the OutputStreams write() method and pass the DataObject.getBytes() method that returns a byte[] array. The revised code is shown at the end of this posting.
However, a few other teething problems exist:
1. This works well only if I specify the content type in response.setHeader() method. What if my users upload different types of files, is there a way that the browser opens according to the file type without setting the content type?
2. I still have a problem opening PDF files, even if I specify - response.setHeader("Content-type", "application/pdf");
I get the message - The file is damaged and could not be repaired
3. I would also like this to open the attachment in a new window and using target="_blank" doesn't seem to work as seen below:
<h:commandLink
styleClass="commandLink" id="link1" action="#{pc_DocumentDetailsRead.doLink1Action}" target="_blank">
<h:outputText id="text5" styleClass="outputText"
value="Click Here"></h:outputText>
</h:commandLink>
------------------------Revised code-----------------------------------------
FacesContext faces = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
HttpServletResponse response =(HttpServletResponse) faces.getExternalContext().getResponse();
response.setHeader("Content-type", "application/msword");
response.setHeader("Content-Disposition", "inline; filename=Attachment");
response.setHeader("Expires","0");
response.setHeader("Cache-Control","must-revalidate, post-check=0, pre-check=0");
response.setHeader("Pragma","public");
ServletOutputStream os = response.getOutputStream();
os.write(getLcDoc().getBytes("ATTACH"));
os.flush();

Problem with opening project file from my friend
My friend save his project and gave me it on CD. Of course he gave me all needed files like source videos. It's videos from the same type of DSLR clips which I also have. So I making my own movies also with clips in this codes or similar. My DSLR is Canon 600D but DSLR of my friend is Canon 550D - clips from his DSLR are of course also written form my system. So everything seems to be OK.
Now i try to open this project in my PC but it doesn't work at all. I can see only this message:
My friend work on CS 5 but I work on CS 6. I don't believe that Adobe Premiere Pro can't open a older type of his project files. Please help.Mark Mapes wrote:
What do you know about the sequence preset your friend used?
Sequence preset? I don't know anything. But I think that is unneceserry even to know. Because why sequence preset can be important? Preset is only a preset. So I can't see any reason preset was a main problem with it. -
Problem with importing RAW files from camera
LR 1.3 refuses to import raw files from my camera. Only JPEG's are imported. Got a Canon 350D/Rebel XT. Once I copied the raw files to disk (using Camera Window) Import from disk works fine and converts the CR2 to DNG without a problem. The preference "Treat JPEG files next to..." makes no difference. Anybody a clue what's wrong?
Thanks, EdwinYeah this is a known bug with Canon cameras in general (not just using Lightroom!). If you use the camera to download your images anyway, I believe the trick is to set the camera to mass storage mode and you'll also get the RAWs. Lightroom's import from camera is very buggy though, hence it is a better idea to use a reader, or to manually copy the files to your harddisk first and import from there.

Problems with downloading music files from particular websites
Has anyone else had problems using the Calabash or Afropop websites to download music files? I am able to download using Tiger on my MacBook Pro but each time I try the same with Leopard on my iMac, I get a message that the file does not exist. However, I am able to download music files from other sites like Music for Robots so I am not sure if there is something wrong with the sites themselves?
The files are definitely corrupted because they skip and have areas that sound like the file bits are jumbled. I verified this on two different computers. Dragging the same song straight from the server to the computer or streaming it the songs
play fine. I also had trouble with the same hard drives corrupting music and pictures when I had the raid tower in Raid 0. I have since put the drives in clean mode and reformatted full to NTFS. The Raid tower is a TR4UTBPN with two WD 1.5tb
7200 drives. I am running them in USB 3.0 mode with supplied turbo USB software to super speed the tower. My pictures when they corrupt have solid color banding all through the middle. I may try making a folder on one of the internal server
drives and try downloading and see if they are corrupt as well. when I say it corrupted the files before I mean you couldn't stream them copy them or look at them on the server without them being corrupted. Any thoughts? -
Problem with recognition raw files from nikon d600
hello everyone, i hope someone can answer my question.
using cs5 with camera raw . camera raw is not able to open my nef files from my new nikon d600 . what can i do to update the plugin??
from the menu help updates in cs5 it tells me that all soft. is updated but it is still not workingYou need to upgrade to PS CS6 in order to work with D600 raw files. Else, you can convert your raw files to DNG using DNG Converter.

Adobe Camera Raw in CS3 is having problems with the RAW files from my Canon 5D Mark II
Adobe Bridge will import the CS2 raw files from the camera card in m Canon 5D Mark II but it will not create thumbnails nor will it convert them to DNG. I want to update the raw reading software but the update page indicates that it only updates into CS4. Will I have to upgrade to CS4 before I can import from my new camera?
MLThe dng converter does indeed work but it adds an extra step to the workflow. Raw files from my Canon 40D are exported and converted to dng in Bridge in one step. Now I must add the extra step of using dng converter. Can I upgrade Adobe Bridge's raw capacity so that I can import from my new camera in the same efficient way? I would prefer to do this without buying CS4.
thank you -- ML -

Problems With Publishing a file from a Mac
Hi everyone, i'm developing a website with a designer. I'm doing the coding part, while he is doing the design. We are using Flash CS3 with AS2.
I made a common preloader for the website and sent to him where he applied the design to the program. Problem is, i'm using windows vista home premium, while he is using Mac.
I developed the preloader and sent to him, it worked like a charm on the mac, but then he sent the file back to me and i can't publish the fla.
It seems that everytime i hit ctrl+enter he doesn´t do anything. Worst than that, if i have the swf in the same directory as the fla, when try to publish it, it deletes de swf file...
I really need help on thins, does anyone have an idea about what's happening ?
Thanks in advance, CláudioDo you get an error? Look in the Publish Settings window. In the first pane, check the paths for the .swf and the .html files.

Problem with reading mpeg files from Sony DCR-SR100 30GB Handycam
I just purchased a new Sony DCR-SR100 Handycam.
I can upload successfully to my desktop (PowerBook G4)via a USB cable.
I have all the latest updates for iLife, iMovie, Final Cut Pro and Quicktime. None of those applications will open the imported mpeg.
When trying to import the file to the iMovie application I get the following error message:
"The file could not be imported. The file M2UOOOO4.MPG can't be imported; Quicktime couldn't parse it: -2048"
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
igor4443Hi Igor,
welcome to the board
... hm, sorry to say, but:
iMovie is a video edit app meant to work with firewire connected miniDV camcorders
you try to teach the old dog new tricks... just one kind of mpegs can be handled with iM, that is mp4, imported via iPhoto6 (some stillcams can record a kind of "movin' images"...)
sooo, you need to convert your stuff...
mpegs are meant for playback only, they are a delivery format (thanks, Lennart, for this phrase).. editing/processing such files, needs to demuxx them => 3rd party tools...
there's a very good and free solution:
Streamclip (free)
not using a miniDV camcorder, you miss the convenience of the iApps...
