Problems trying to make a 3D text out of cubes

I'm trying to build a word in an old school Arcade font. http://www.dafont.com/arcade-pizzadude.font
I want the pixels in 3D and in different colors and then import them into After Effects. There I'd like to move them down the screen, so it looks like the fall from the sky and then assemble as a whole word.
I allready arranged about 80 cubes and then tried to import them into After Effects but there the programm just hangs it self. Now I can't even open the file in Photoshop because it tells me I have to many windows open. Maybe the file is to big because I'm doing it in a completely stupid way, so if anyone can tell me how to solve this problem, I'd be very happy

so if anyone can tell me how to solve this problem
Use a 3D program. Aside from that, there is a million ways to get 3D-ish cubes in AE (Shatter, Card Dance, this here, other plug-ins and techniques), you really don't need PS in any way.

Problems trying to make acapella

Hi I recently bought a Macbook and ordered logic express 8 along with it hoping to edit some tracks and create some acapellas...so i have followed all steps givin to me through youtube on how to make an acapella but logic express is giving me a hard time...please if anyone out there has made an acapella using logic express 8 please let me know what i'm doing wrong...

What's an "acapella"? Surely you don't mean a voice-only arrangement of a song… or do you?
Apart from that, you haven't actually said what the problem is. There's such a wide range of possible problems that you really will have to give us some (preferably lots of) info about what you've got, what you're trying to do, how far you get, where it all goes wrong…
And I believe there may be several different videos on YouTube, so we might not have seen the same one. I did go there & see something about a dancing hamster once, but this might not be the video you mean.
Anyway, get back with loads of details, & we'll be very happy to help.

Trying to make tool tip text visible longer

Having no luck finding a way to keep tool tip text visible for longer period of time. Keeping it visible for as long as the mouse is over the component would be ideal but any increase would be helpful.
Is there a way to set the time the tip is displayed?

Hi,
Try the following code:
ToolTipManager.sharedInstance().setDismissDelay(100000);
That should keep your ToolTip showing for a long time. Change the value if you want it longer.

Problem trying to make a LC Designer ES4 form "Reader Extended" in Acrobat XI Pro

I have a form that I created in LC Designer ES4 that I was able to successfully "Reader Extend" using Acrobat XI Pro. I added a script to the form to allow for the deselecting of radio buttons (which I found on this forum), and now I cannot Reader Extend the form.
Here are the specifics of my environment:
Acrobat XI Pro - Ver. 11.0.10
Adobe LiveCycle Designer ES4 - Ver. 11.0.20130826.2.901444
Windows 7 Professional, SP1
Here's the error I am getting in the Acrobat debugger:
Exception in line 1 of function top_level, script Document-Level:!ADBE::0100_VersChkStrings
InvalidGetError: Get not possible, invalid or unknown. Doc.layout:1:Document-Level:!ADBE::0100_VersChkStrings
This error message appears at the very bottom of the debugger window:
Unable to find source for Document-Level:!ADBE::0100_VersChkStrings
Acrobat XI Pro does not allow me to save the new file, and gives this error:
This document could not be Reader enabled.
I used the chat support for Acrobat XI Pro, and was told that this is a LC Designer issue. Since there's no phone support for LC (at least not free), I came to this forum for help.
Here's the script object (JavaScript) that I inserted into the main subform:
form1.Main.#variables[0].RBClear_Script_Object - (JavaScript, client)
var rbs = new Object();
function handleRBClick(o)
    if (rbs[o.name]==null)
        rbs[o.name]=o.rawValue;
    else{
        if (rbs[o.name] == o.rawValue)
            o.selectedMember().rawValue = 0;
            o.execEvent('change');
        rbs[o.name] = o.rawValue;
I then call the above function from within a radio button's group list object (not individual items).
form1.Main.Subform_Stock_Detail.Table2.Row3.Subform_Responsibility.RadioButtonList::click - (JavaScript, client)
RBClear_Script_Object.handleRBClick(this);
This all works fine when I preview the form from within LC Designer ES4. I then open the dynamic PDF form in Acrobat XI Pro, click File, Save as Other..., Reader Extended PDF, then Enable More Tools.
Acrobat shows the errors at the top of this post within the Acrobat debugger window. When I close debugger, Acrobat does not allow me to save the new file, and gives this error:
    This document could not be Reader enabled.
I've been searching for days and cannot find any resolution to this issue. It appears to me that this is a security related issue, and Acrobat does not like the running of a function within the form. Just a guess. I can't think of anything else.
Anyone come across this issue, and how were you able to fix it?
Thanks in advance,
Dean

Although I did not find a cause for the errors, I did find a workaround in my case.
This only happens when running the Javascript Debugger in Acrobat XI Pro. If you turn it off, you can Reader Extend the document. If you turn it on, you have to cycle through all of the debugger errors/warnings using the arrow button in the top left corner of the debugger window, then close that window. Still not sure what the errors are for, but at least I got the form to work.

Having problems trying to make a DVD off a footage I shot....

Hello folks,
I shot a footage of my cousin's baptism, now I am imported everything in Imovie HD, what it does on the right side it cuts all the clip so what I do is take all these clips put them in the timeline... now let's say I just want to burn it to DVD without doing any editing to it...
I'd click on File - share - DVD and it exports to Idvd? and from there I'd burn it - does it loose quality? all i have to do is press BURN?
Thanks,
joey

in iM's presets, you can select "import to clip pane" (to drag indivdual clips to the timeline) or "to timeline" (to get all in one rush, in chronical order into timeline, just do some trimming, titleing...)…
you can even import to iDVD itself…
no, you don't loose any quality…
have you read here?

Trying to make a DVD with an old/non-existent version of iDVD!

Ladies and Gentlemen,
Please could you help me?
I work at a school in the UK, and have recently been able to purchase an external Lacie DVD drive, as the school’s computer (currently an iBook G4 with OSX 10.3.2 and a 1GHZ Power PC Processor – 640 MB Memory and a 40 GB HD) wasn’t shipped with one – however, I have a problem…
Trying to make a DVD that will play in a stand-alone DVD player – I followed the advice in iMovie Help – but was stopped suddenly on finding that I do not have the relevant version of iDVD (which version (if any – I can’t see it anywhere!) was shipped with iMovie 4.0?). Is it possible to download a copy of iDVD 3 or later from anywhere compatible with OSX 10.3.2 and iMovie 4.0?
The iMovie Help has an additional option to ‘export your movie in a format appropriate for DVD authoring’ which has let me burn the movie as a (name).DV file – but this is not compatible with any DVD player I have tried. I noticed a while ago on this forum that someone was talking about Toast but I do not have this, but I do have Roxio Easy Media Creator 7, which was bundled with the burner – but is only compatible with a PC – would I be able to build a project in iMovie, transfer it to a PC, and use REMC7 to do what toast would?
Finally, I was wondering if anyone has any experience of using Avid’s free DV software – and if they would recommend it (and also if I would be able to make DVDs with it?).
Well thanks for reading if you got this far – and I’d appreciate it if you could offer any advice (I know I’ve not been very concise)…
Kevin.
iBook G4 Mac OS X (10.3.2)

Thanks for the welcome Karsten! I’ve checked the installer disks – which appear to have all the main pieces of software, but not iDVD. If you or anyone knows where it might be hidden that would be great. Thanks for all the other info too!
Thanks Lennart – I don’t think my computer could support iLife ’05 as it is running Mac OSX 10.3.2 and I’ve just been looking at its system requirements which state it requires 10.3.4 minimum – if you know differently, please let me know. As an alternative I have considered getting iLife ’04, but your comment about iLife ’05 being the first version to support external drives worried me (“iDVD 5 is the first iDVD version that officially supports external burners“ does this mean there is an unofficial option for iLife ‘04? Perhaps a patch similar to the one mentioned by Karsten), does that mean iLife ’04 would not support an external Lacie DVD writer?
What is the earliest version of Toast I’d be able to use (as a money saving option!)?
Thank you both, and apoligies for my amateurish questions…
Kevin.

Can you post the permissions on your Home folder?
Open Terminal, copy and paste this command. Copy the output and post here. If you want to mask out your user name, then paste the output into a text editor and use Find/Replace to change it to something like "username" before pasting it in here.

We bought an iphone 4s for our daughter. We transfered it to straight talk. She can make calls and text no problem. She can use the WiFi but is unable to use the internet or mms. How do we update the APN?

To clarify for anyone who is still having any problems doing this.
1. Unlock your phone with the carrier ( I know the process will work if it is jail broken but I am assuming you dont want to void the warranty on your phone) NOTE: even if you purchased the phone outright at Wal-Mart it is still locked to ATT so you will have to unlock the phone. If it's already unlocked skip to step 2. This works and will work even if you update the phone.
1a Here is the link to unlock a ATT iphone. Simply follow the instructions https://www.att.com/deviceunlock/client/en_US/
2. Get a T- mobile SIM. Even if you don't want the service, if you feign interest, they will send you one for free or 99cents. If you need it now you can get one at a T-mobile store too.
3. Once you have both your Straight talk SIM and your T-mobile SIM follow these instructions:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mFFf5uqk18M
4. If you have any remaining questions look at all the responses posted previously on this thread or check out the Howard Forums Wiki: http://wiki.howardforums.com/index.php/Straight_Talk_iPhone
Everything should work flawlessly at this point. If not let me know and I'm happy to help when I can. I hope this makes doing this very easy for everyone in the future. God Bless -J

I'm trying to make a slideshow in iMovie, but when I upload photos from my Aperture Library into the iMovie Photo Browser some photos (305 out of 427) are missing. How do I get iMovie to upload all of them?

I'm trying to make a slideshow in iMovie, but when I upload photos from my Aperture Library into the iMovie Photo Browser, some photos (305 out of 427) are missing. How do I get iMovie to upload all of them?

I have same problem. I could only see a fraction of my project photos if I browse the Aperture lbrary. It is the same problem when I sync the aperture photos to my iPhone or iPad. I still cannot solve it but I know a way to go around it for your iMovie to see the pictures so that you can work on your iMovie.
Here is the work around:
Export the photos from your album to your hard disk and re-import into your iPhoto. Now you should be able to see those photos that you want to work on in iMovie when you browse your iPhot library.

I have tried to send photos through text messaging and it will not send. I thought my iPhone 3 was giving out so I got my iPhone 4 last night and still can't send photos through text message. What is the deal??

Also MMS is supported on a carrier by carrier basis. While mostly every carrier does support ths feature make sure that your carrier allows this functionality.

Hey tyjox,
Thanks for the question. After reviewing your post, it sounds like you need to deactivate Find My iPhone on a device that does not work. You will need to work with the family member of the account the iPhone is registered with. I would recommend that you use this article to help you resolve or isolate the issue.

I have updated my phone to 4.3.3 and I was told there would be more bells and whistles. I haven't found more texting sounds. Have I updated my phone wrong or just not completed it all the way? Please help me. Still trying to figure this iphone 3G out.

I have updated my phone to 4.3.3 and I was told there would be more bells and whistles. I haven't found more texting sounds. Have I updated my phone wrong or just not completed it all the way? Please help me. Still trying to figure this iphone 3G out.

You have the iPhone 3GS, not the 3G. The last update to support the iPhone 3G is 4.2.1.
iOS 4.3.3 includes bug fixes etc. There is nothing really special about this update that wasn't introduced in iOS 4.3. iOS 5 is the one to wait for - it will be released in the Autumn/Fall and includes over '200' new features/improvements.
The additional text tines and ringtones were an iPhone 4-only feature.

Just bought Photoshop Elements 13...I'm trying to make a slideshow but can't figure out how to alter duration time that the slide is on the screen. They presently move from one to another way too quickly...also need a different pan and zoom option. Where are all the options I had in PS10? Also...Can I burn this to a DVD?

The changes have brought improvements but also drawbacks compared with the old slideshow editor.
The templates are now fairly fixed but I find the “Classic Dark” gives reasonable results with some panning and you can click the audio button and browse you PC for any track. Unfortunately there are only three speed choices linked to the music track. The improvement for most people is that you can now export to your hard drive at 720p or 1080p and upload to sites like YouTube and Vimeo.

While editing photos in Aperture, I'm trying to make an "auto" adjustment to the exposure but the button is grayed out and consequently doesn't perform any function, please help! Thank you, Mike

While editing photos in Aperture, I trying to make an "auto" adjustment to the exposure,
but the "auto" button is grayed out and will not allow any auto function to take place.
Please help!
Thank you,
Mike

Mike, are you working with raw images?
For some raw images auto exposure is not available, have a look at this manual page:
http://documentation.apple.com/en/aperture/usermanual/index.html#chapter=18%26se ction=9%26tasks=true
Note: Automatic exposure adjustment is available for Aperture-supported RAW images only. If you want to adjust the exposure of another file type, such as JPEG or TIFF, see Working with the Exposure Controls. For a list of supported RAW file types, go to the Apple website at http://www.apple.com/aperture/specs.
