Question about data file folders in Numbers

I have created a Numbers spreadsheet ot create acataluge of my books. The file is simply called Books.numbers.
I now find on my desktop two folders - Books.numbers.sb-be4ae974-2tdLVg and Books.numbers.sb-be4ae974-A7nKNd. The former has sub folders called Data, Index and Metdata. The other has a Metadata dubfolder and several Preview.jpg files.
What are these folders, and do I need to kepp them. Doe sNumbers always create such folders?
Thanks

GF,
You may have a third party app on your system that automatically expands zIp files. If so, this app could be causing this problem because a Numbers document is in fact a Package file that appears to be a compressed file to some programs.

I read the document , the Upload/download in Pl/Sql Base on the
Oracle Application Server's Content Service. the Problem is when I
download a document, If I upload a Html or MsWord file, It will store in a LongRaw column, when me download ; It's tell me can't
find a application to open this file; I will select a application
from list to open the download file;
As normal, It will open MsWord Automatic when download a "doc" file ; also It will open a new window of Browser to view a Html file;
I check the download process on client Browser; when download
file, The content-type always return "application/octet-stream";
Also the download File will lost the postfix of the file,
So Browser don't open the File Automatic;
I think If I set the correct Content-Type , Browser can know how open the file; So I use owa_content.set_content_type procedure
set the Doc file to "application/msword" , but the WEb Server always
return "application/octet-stream";
I didn't know how to do this problem, Plese help me.

I have a Tecra M2 and rely on your email update to ensure I have the latest drivers on my machine.
When I received a Toshiba support email on 14 April 2005 giving reference to a QFE from Microsoft I assumed it would be necessary for my Tecra.
I was very confused when I found that this QFE and subsequent ones posted on the 16 April 2005 relate to Pre SP2 critical updates no9t required if one has already taken earlier advice of updating to Service Pack, at the very least your narrative should make mention of this. I find it very difficult to believe that your updates are two+ years out of date.

Question about openning files using SDK 10.

I have written a Plug-In for SDK 9 that works wonderfully. One of the functions is for the user to be able to page (Next/Previous) between PDF files on our server. This functionality now longer works without crashing Acrobat 10. All I am doing is creating the URL path to the next/previous PDF, creating a CustomFileSys with the path and calling AVDocOpenFromFile.
Does this no longer work with Acrobat 10 SDK?
Thanks!

Should work fine, AFAIK.
For this level of issue, I would open a formal support request with developer support.

I have the same problem. For about 1 month ago I extended my iCloud storage account (+20 GB) in order to maintain my backups for iPHONE and iPAD as my account would expire 14/10. In spite of this, I got an email 15/10, which said that iCloud was reduced to 5 GB. 2 hours later I received a new email with comfirmation on the purchase of +20 GB storage plan. However, I only have access to 5 GB on my iPad and iPhone. Called Apple Support but they couldn´t help me. Did you find any solution ?

Questions about properties files

Hello,
I have two questions about properties files.
1. Is it possible to import a properties file from another properties file?
2. Is it possible to have variables in a properties file as described below in code snippet.
Thanks in advance,
Julien.
Code snippet:
var_one=foo
var_two=$var_one bar
The second line would then read "foo bar"

Hello,
I have two questions about properties files.
1. Is it possible to import a properties file from
another properties file?If you write your own code to parse whatever import statement you decide to put in the properties file, yes. But there's no provision to do so in the core APIs or in the standard usage of these files.
2. Is it possible to have variables in a properties
file as described below in code snippet.Same as the answer to your first question. Though this kind of thing is more common, so there might be a library at jakarta or sourceforge or mindprod or something that does this.

I have a question about Data Rates.

Hello All.
This is a bit of a noob question I'm sure. I don't think I really understand Data Rates and how it applies to Motion... therefore I'm not even sure what kind of questions to ask. I've been reading up online and thought I would ask some questions here. Thanks to all in advance.
I've never really worried about Data Rates until now. I am creating an Apple Motion piece with about 15 different video clips in it. And 1/2 of them have alpha channels.
What exactly is Data Rate? Is it the rate in which video clip data is read (in bits/second) from the Disc and placed into my screen? In Motion- is the Data Rate for video only? What if the clip has audio? If a HDD is simply a plastic disc with a dye read by "1" laser... how come my computer can pull "2" files off the disc at the same time? Is that what data transfer is all about? Is that were RAM comes into play?
I have crunched my clips as much as I can. They are short clips (10-15seconds each). I've compressed them with the Animation codec to preserve the Alpha channel and sized them proportionally smaller (320x240). This dropped their data rate significantly. I've also taken out any audio that was associated with them.
Is data rate what is slowing my system down?
The data rates are all under 2MBs. Some are as low as 230Kbs. They were MUCH higher. However, my animation still plays VERY slowly.
I'm running a 3GigRam Powerbook Pro 2.33GHz.
I store all my media on a 1TB GRaid Firewire 800 drive. However for portability I'm using a USB 2 smartdisk external drive. I think the speed is 5200rpm.
I'm guessing this all plays into the speed at which motion can function.
If I total my data rate transfer I get somewhere in the vicinity of 11MBs/second. Is that what motion needs for it to play smoothly a 11MBs/second data connection? USB 2.0 is like what 480Mbs/second. So there is no way it's going to play quickly. What if I played it from my hard drive? What is the data rate of my internal HDD?
I guess my overall question is.
#1. Is my thinking correct on all of these topics? Do my bits, bytes and megs make sense. Is my thought process correct?
#2. Barring getting a new machine or buying new hardware. What can I do to speed up this workflow? Working with 15 different video clips is bogging Motion down and becoming frustrating to work with. Even if only 3-4 of the clips are up at a time it bogs things down. Especially if I throw on a glow effect or something.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
-Fraky

Data rate DOES make a difference, but I'd say your real problem has more to do with the fact that you're working on a Powerbook. Motion's real time capabilities derive from the capability of the video card. Not the processor. Some cards do better than others, but laptops are not even recommended for running Motion.
To improve your workflow on a laptop will be limited, but there are a few things that you can try.
Make sure that thumbnails and previews are turned off.
Make sure that you are operating in Draft Mode.
Lower the display resolution to half, or quarter.
Don't expect to be getting real time playback. Treat it more like After Effects.
Compressing your clips into smaller Animations does help because it lowers the data rate, but you're still dealing with the animation codec which is a high data rate codec. Unfortunately, it sounds necessary in your case because you're dealing with alpha channels.
The data rate comes into play with your setup trying to play through your USB drive. USB drives are never recommended for editing or Motion work. Their throughput is not consistent enough for video work. a small FW drive would be better, though your real problem as I said is the Powerbook.
If you must work on the powerbook, then don't expect real-time playback. Instead, build your animation, step through it, and do RAM previews to view sections in real time.
I hope this helps.

Question about pictures file in home folder

I am trying to create more space on my hard drive and have a question about the pictures file.
In addition to the iPhoto Library I have several folders named 1, 2, 3 etc each containing a bunch of photos; plus several hundred individual photo files.
My question is whether these files are duplicates of what is in the iPhoto Library - and is there an easy way to find that out?
And I guess also to find out how they got there in the first place. Could these be imports from disks as opposed to my digital camera?
Thanks for any help,
Laura

Hey laura,
I haven't used iPhoto for a while but from memory i think that i work similar to iTunes. Whne files are processed by iPhoto they are catalogued on the hard drive according to the iPhoto preferences. I would check out the iPhoto preferences and see if you can see anything in here that will tell you what is going on.

Question about PageMaker files

Can my old Mac Pagemaker files be open and used in the newer Mac with OS 10.6.8 which my Granddaughter has given me? If so, with all InDesign versions? I'm an old **** and this is the first time I'm trying to use a Discussion Group. How do I know when there is an answer? Do I have to keep this website open, or check back sometime, or will I receive an Email or phone call? Please let me know by means other that this site, to get started with. My Email is [removed by forum host] Thank you, Gerda May

Dear Peter (if I be so personal). First, thank you for deleting my Email
address on the post and saving me a lot of spam. Further, you were most
gracious in sending more specifics in regard to the answer of my question about
using PM files in InDesign.
However, I am trying hard to understand your instructions to unembed "links" and
bring them up to date. However, I have no idea of what links are, are they
something I would have intentionally done or are they automatic, and something
of which I have no control over? How do I locate them? Are these procedures
also necessity for using my old Photoshop 6 files?
I only use 2 Programs: PageMaker 6.5 and Photoshop 6. I have inherited a newer
Mac with OS 10.6.8 which has only the basic Mac programs in it. As you can
guess, I need to identify which are the proper newer programs to obtain for it,
with the least bit of effort and understanding.
I use PageMaker to write letters, and compose stories for printing in a Club
magazine. I also resurrect previous stories, that I've stored through the
years.
In Photoshop, I fix up new and old pictures for inclusion in stories and also
resurrect previous photos I've stored on an external Hard Drive, or placed on a
CD.
If you would be so kind to steer me in the right direction, I will be most
appreciative. Trying to understand computer things is hard for me, and often
times unsuccessful. Please just smile and don't laugh, I'll bet you can't take
shorthand or bake Dutch cookies, either! Looking forward to some instructions,
if you have the time, with many regards, Gerda May.

Questions about Photo Files

I am new to Mac and have a couple of questions about storing photo files just so I'm clear on everything I'm doing (or should be doing).
I have copied my files over from an external hard drive to the Pictures folder on the Mac which seems pretty much how they were stored in Windows. I have always used Photoshop to edit my photos and will be doing the same on the Mac plus I am going to start using Aperture.
I thought I would check out iPhoto today and if I understand correctly it imported (copied) all the photos in my files over to it so now there are two copies of all my photos and double the space taken up on the hard drive. Can someone confirm this is true and if probably not the best way to store my photos since I will be using Photoshop?
My second question, is there a way to have thumbnails of the photos in folders with out opening the folders?
Any and all advice on photo files, storage, ect. is welcome!
Thanks in advance

Hi
That's correct - when iPhoto imports your images, it stores them in its library (Pictures/iPhoto/iPhoto Library, which appears to the Finder as a single file, but which is actually a package containing files and folders). It doesn't delete the original version.
Both Aperture and Adobe Bridge (which is bundled with Photoshop) will themselves have the ability to manage your images, so you'll probably want to decide which application you prefer for image organisation and stick with one or the other. Aperture and iPhoto will also work together, so you can actually choose to store your masters in iPhoto if you prefer its image management.
Both Aperture and Bridge have "thumbnail view" of an image library, or you can do a quick and dirty preview by opening the image folder in the Finder and switching to icon view (and using the View Options menu - cmd-J - to increase the icon size if necessary).

Question about Domain file size...

I have a dot Mac account, and my iDisk capacity is 1 Gb.
As I regularly back-up my Domain file from my G5 iMac to a FW external drive that sits on my desk, I have just noticed that the file size is now just over 1 Gb.
Can someone please explain to me why I still have almost 700Mb left on my iDisk, yet my Domain file size is over 1 Gb?? Obviously, there must be 'internal' files that aren't copied to the iDisk.
Thanks,
Rachel.

Wow, that's quite a discrepancy. 1gb Domain vs. 300mb site? Well suffice it to say that the Domain file contains all the information that is needed to generate your site. But it makes me curious too why you have such a large discrepancy. Do you have a lot of video on your site?
My site is only about 50-60mb and my Domain is roughly the same size. When I first started using iWeb, I used to poke around inside the Domain file quite a bit more than I do now. You can open up your Domain file by Control-clicking it and selecting "Show Package Contents." At one point early on when I was blithely dragging and dropping stuff into iWeb and publishing just for experimentation, I noticed that even after I deleted images or EVEN WHOLE PAGES, that sometimes the Domain file would still contain images and quicktime movies left over from the deleted pages. I didn't know what was going on and actually tried to delete the "old" items from the Domain file, but I ended up with a non-functional Domain file...lots of error messages saying it was missing this and that. So I started over completely with a new Domain file. I also noticed at the time that my Domain file was several megabytes larger than my site.
Since then, I have been very careful only to drag items to iWeb that will actually be used. The Domain-to-site size ratio has stayed pretty much 1:1. So I chalked up my earlier experience as a fluke. I don't know. Maybe there is an inconsistency somewhere. In fact, do a search here on "Domain file optimizing" or "Domain file bloat" and you may be able to find my questions about the issue. I never did get any responses, though.

Question about upload file to sever in jsp.

i found some articles about upload file in jsp, and most of suggested that the third party classes will be used.
but i want to know the basic technology behind them, for example what kind of class needed ( using java.io.* as usual)
and what the process for writing a file to sever.
any document or url link useful will be very welcomed.
best regards

Uploading a file is similar to sending any other kind of data, except that it must be encoded differently than a standard HTML form... Typically you will set up your form like this:
<form action="/upload" enctype="multipart/form-data" method="POST">
<input type="file" name="myFile">
</form>
The enctype declaration is necessary -- your file won't arrive intact any other way. However, the JSP/Servlet specs don't provide any code to deal with forms which are encoded this way, so things like request.getParameter() don't work. You will either have to roll your own code, or use a third party library.

Question about sorting files in media library

Hey,
I'm Sam Hoste from Belgium and I have a question about sorting music files in my media library in iTunes.
My music collection mainly exists of complete albums instead of individual songs. The problem is that I can not play the songs of an album in the same order as on the tracklist of the album in the media library of iTunes.
I also take very good care of the ID3 tags from my mp3-files, but that doesn't help.
For example, if I had an album with the following tracklist,
01. Artist - Song 1
02. Artist - Song 2
03. Artist - Song 3
04. Artist ft Otherartist - Song 4
05. Artist ft Otherartist - Song 5
06. Artist - Song 6
07. Artist - Song 7,
every music file would have an ID3 tag for tracknumber (1, 2, 3, ...), an ID3 tag for artist ("Artist" or "Artist ft Otherartist"), an ID3 tag for title (Song 1, ...) and an ID3 tag for album ("Albumname").
When I load this album in my media library in iTunes, I cannot get them sorted by album and by tracknumber on that album. When I sort by artist I get this list:
01. Artist - Song 1
02. Artist - Song 2
03. Artist - Song 3
06. Artist - Song 6
07. Artist - Song 7
04. Artist ft Otherartist - Song 4
05. Artist ft Otherartist - Song 5.
But that's normal, but even if I sort by album I get the same list:
01. Artist - Song 1
02. Artist - Song 2
03. Artist - Song 3
06. Artist - Song 6
07. Artist - Song 7
04. Artist ft Otherartist - Song 4
05. Artist ft Otherartist - Song 5.
So the songs aren't in the same order as they are supposed to be on the CD. And I would really like my albums to play in the same order than on the tracklist on the CD.
I think the problem is caused by the fact that when you sort by "album" in iTunes media library, iTunes first sorts by albumname, and second by artistname, and third by tracknumber. In stead of sorting first by albumname, and then second by tracknumber in stead of the artist.
My question: Is there a way to make sure iTunes sorts by albumname, and then by tracknumber in stead of artist, so I can play my albums in the same order as on the CD? Or is there an other solution for this issue?
Thanks and kind regards,
Sam Hoste

Question about HTML files using TextEdit

First off, I wanted to ask if this is the proper place to post a question about HTML/XHTML. I couldn't really find anywhere else that seemed to fit better, but please point me in the right direction if this is not the place. Thanks.
Moving on -- here's my question:
I'm having trouble with working with HTML files in TextEdit. I'm on a Mac, using TextEdit as my HTML editor (I can not afford one of these other HTML editors, and I like using a simple text editor like TextEdit for HTML). Here's my problem: I open a new rich text document in TextEdit and write my HTML and then choose File>Save As and choose "HTML" under the File Format drop-down box. Having saved this file as an HTML file, I then open Safari and choose File>Open File and select my HTML file; however, when I do this, my web page's text does not appear in the browser window. Instead, the HTML code itself appears in the browser window, as if the browser was not interpreting it as HTML and converting it. The same problem happens when saving the file as a .htm file using Microsoft Word for Mac.
So, as another solution (at the suggestion of a helpful poster in a previous thread), I tried creating a plain text file in TextEdit (instead of a rich text file like before). Now, in TextEdit there is no option for saving plain text files as HTML files, so I simply save it as a Unicode-8 format and then find the file in Finder and change the extension to .htm myself (I've tried .html as well). This, fortunately enough, actually works! When I open the file in Safari I get to see my web page as expected. However, the first time I quit out of the application TextEdit and then try to reopen my .htm file in TextEdit, I no longer can see my HTML code. Instead, TextEdit shows me the actual web page text that I would expect to see when I open the file in a browser, and my HMTL code is lost.
Can someone please help me here? There has to be a way to edit HTML in TextEdit without the code disappearing every time you quit out of the application and reopen the HTML file. Any help is greatly, greatly appreciated. Thank you.

That's the problem -- once I convert it to plain text there is no longer an HTML option under the Save As drop down menu. The drop down menu's title is Plain Text Encoding instead of File Format and the only options I get are Unicode-8, Unicode-16, Western, Chinese, and so forth. I can save it as an HTML file, but only if the file is rich text, which doesn't work for HTML.
So, I can save it as plain text (.txt) and then go and change the extension myself, and like I said, it works if I do that. I can edit HTML in TextEdit and open the file properly in Safari to view my web page. The problem is (I went over all this in my first post) that, after that, if I exit TextEdit and reopen it, my document is no longer HTML code -- it is now simply the text of the web site as if I had opened it in a broswer.
What do you suggest I do?

VERY new to flash...question about creating files...

Hello everyone,
I will tell you first and foremost, I have no idea how to use flash (files and the creation of, that is).
I am using CS4 Dw to create my website however, I want to use the flash version of my template.
Do I need to edit the template within the flash file (which I have no idea how to do exactly) or is there a way to "convert" the non-flash version of the template.......I at least know how to edit that! Or, do I have to create a separate flash file altogether?
If I'm not making any sense, please let me know! TIA.

In the general, a template's graphic elements are more likely intended to be fixed pieces that you wouldn't edit except for a desire to change the way the site appears from an aethetic perspective. If you are wondering about changing those visual elements, then you are probably looking at changing photoshop files. Ideally a template has all the visuals established, and the only thing the user of it has to worry about is the information content. And in this case, ideally, that information is in a form that is readily editable either as text in textfields or in data files that are dynamically read into the file.
Being as how you say you have only started messing around... give yourself more time to explore how you need to go about changing things.
