Question about ZEN 4 imaging

We are using ZENWorks 4 imaging (with IR5) and have been using the documents about automating the imaging process. The question that I have is when the workstation it reimaged and reboots, ZENWorks agent comes up with the windows that indicates that it is making changes to the computer and states not to log in till the machine reboots. I believe it is taking the ZIS information and putting this information back into the workstation. (workstation name etc). On windows 2000 the machine reboots without any problems when this process is complete. With Windows XP the machine does not seem to reboot. If the workstation is manually rebooted everything works fine. I have found that if the workstation is left for about 10 minutes, it will actually reboot on its own. Is there a way to have this reboot occur more quickly?

Didn't know that this could be done. Where do I make those changes.
Thanks.

yes... you could disable the feature that you are directly able to login
without pressing ctrl-alt-del
on the other side I just had wks this week who rebooted itself without this
directly...

Noob question about HDR images

hi everybody! i am reading this book about photoshop hoping to understand a lot more than i already know about pixels and colors and image dinamics and such..i got to the chapter about HDR images and here's what i dont get. as i understand, given a HDR image it has 32 bit depth meaning its file contains much more information about contrast and brightness than any existing monitor can output, so when u open it in photoshop u will never see its true quality. my question is( and i admit it may seem pointless to some, but i am committed to understand the cause and purpose), when converting it to 8 or 16 bit depth this window pops up asking me to tweak gamma, exposure, shadows and highlights, etc., but why is this linked to the conversion process? why not simply convert it, maintain the same appearance as before and then if needed manually adjust using all the image controls from the photoshop menus? i have CS6, if that matters.

I don't know if this will help, but I've heard about HDR monitors (still very expensive), which supposedly very accurately display the HDR values. If you hang one on the wall in your house, people might think it's a window, since it is literally a source of light, in the same way a window to the outside world is.
Possibly the most surprising use of HDR imagery is in 3D apps where global illumination models are used. HDR imagery literally is the only source of light for these images. There are no lights in the scene, only HDR imagery. This is because of the great dynamic range of HDR.
A more practical (to me) use of HDR is when resurrecting antique images. If you scan multiple exposures from old prints, then create HDR, sculpting values in 16-bit becomes a very powerful tool, only due to the HDR value range.
Photoshop, although it can edit very well in 16-bit, can only show 8-bit representations of HDR imagery, since almost all monitors are 8-bits per channel. Because of the monitors, we can only see a small part of what is actually present in the HDR file.
I've never done it, but I imagine that if we all had HDR monitors, we'd need to wear protective glasses (like you wear driving in your car when the sun is out) most of the time to do our work. :+)

Follow Up Question about shadow Images

Hello!
A couple weeks ago I asked about drop shadows set with images
and I was
given some helpful
advice. Something came up and I wasn't able to get back to
putting the
information into application until a couple days ago. Forgive
my ignorance
but another question has surfaced. Many here advocate that a
serious web
page maker learn the ins and outs of HTML and CSS. I have
been making
significant headway in both. Some unanswered questions
persist and while I
can ferit it out
through more reading and experiementing, it seems best, for
expedience sake
to ask
the question that is effecting my immediate situation. I have
three images - top, center (this one repeats), and bottom -
that I am trying
to place as a background. Here is the CSS that I
have written for the accasion, based on the advice given here
on this forum.
The problem I am having is applying the div tags in the
correct manner that
will give me the results I am looking for. Here is how the
code renders
through IE 7:
http://www.ors-llc.com/AboutORS/experiment.html.
As you see
the images are not one continuous background image. Obviously
I have
something wrong here; can anyone advise?
Thank you in advance.

A Few Questions About Zen MX . . .

I bought a Sandisk Sansa Fuze in the summer of 2008, and have had it replaced twice due to it failing completely. So, I'm on my third, and I considered the Zen MX. So, I have a few questions . . .
1. Why is it cheaper than the Zen?
2. Is it stable and not glitchy?
3. Will it last a long time? You know, 60 years or so (I'm kidding, although that would be nice.)
4. This one's not really inportant, but it would be nice - Does it have gapless playback?
I would appriciate these questions answered.

Has fewer compatible codecsCan only transfer videos coverted with the Creative software that come on the install cd.,Don't know how long it will last. the type of battery tends to go for about 3yrs.From the posts I see can behave badlymostly due to the software. No gapless playback. No Creative player has that. If I were wanting a player like it I would get the original ZEN. In my opinoin the best video/music player Creative has ever made is the Zen VM. You can still find them on Ebay or whenever Creative puts up the Refurbished one. I have several. Many I have purchased & rehab myself.(very easy to do) You can install larger dri'ves( I have a 40GB) there is a 80GB slim dri've that fits. This seller has refurbed players & gives a warranty.http://stores.shop.ebay.com/Gordons-...e__W0QQ_armrsZ

A few questions about zen to

Hi, I would like to know some little things abot the zen touche's menu options.
When you are in the main menu: you select music library-->artists--> u2 (for example, it could be any artist)- do you have the option to see all the tracks of the artist, such as an option VIEW ALL , or you have to go to each album of the artist and explore the albums one by one to find a title. When yes, can you go back to the albums via an option VIEW ALBUMS?
Second, when you listening to a title, do you have the option to see all the albums of the artist via an otion LOOK UP ARTIST or may be VIEW ALBUMS, or you have to go to the options menu and select VIEW INFO and then may be LOOK ALBUMS.
I am asking these questions because These very convenient options are on the ZEN MICRO. I am getting soon a TOUCH and I would like to have those on the TOUCH too.
And one last thing: I am almost sure about it, but how can you find a track on the player whwn I do not know the firts letter of the name of the track but I know some other parts or words or preposition in the name of the track. This feasture is called FIND or SEARCH KEYWORD on the MICRO, but I think it is not on the TOUCH.
Thank you for your Information.

when you are using the player itself the only search feature is to go to the first letter of the song you know. As for on the computer you can probably search the way that you want to. If I were you I would just try to remember the names of the songs or the artist.
Good Luck

Some quick questions about Zen Microph

Hello,
I just received my Zen 8GB Microphoto today after recently purchasing it and I love it so far, but I have a couple questions.
. The pdf manual that came with the installation disc makes it clear that you shouldn't jog with the Zen Micro since continuous shocks aren't good for it. This is a bit of a shock (no pun intended) for me since I planned to use this quite a bit while running, and I know that micro-dri've MP3 players are susceptible to shock which results in skipping, but this seems a bit extreme. Is this statement just "extra-precautionary" so Creative can say to you, "I told you so" just in case it breaks, or has anyone actually have one of these things break pretty quickly from jogging with it's
2. This might be a stupid question but according again to the pdf manual you have to be using the supplied headphones to scan for radio stations as well as recording radio stations while listening to them, but nothing was mentioned about simply listening to FM radio. Will I be able to use the FM radio feature without using the headphones that came with my Zen Photo. I'd test but I haven't had a lot of time to mess with it yet and it's still charging, but I would really hate to have to not use my Shure E3cs in order to be able to use the FM radio.

Power problems and a question about Zen support respo

I have a Zen Micro 8gb player and unfortunately I can now be added to the list of users with Battery/charging issues. I've tried all the troubleshooting steps I can find here and none resolved my problem. Resetting does not help, nor does charging via USB/AC Adapter, I've tried switching adapters, etc. I've never had this issue before.
The problem started a few days ago when I plugged my Zen in like normal to charge - it was completely dead - and after several few hours of charging, I was still unable to turn my device on. I plug the charger in and the device does recognize it, it powers on and I get the blue light and "Creative" logo on the screen. Then the little battery icon flashes between the green "charging" icon and the red "empty battery" icon. It will go on like this for hours. Normally it would only take an hour or two to charge but now I can leave it charging for an entire day then it goes dead right after I unplug it.
My question is - based on user experience here - whether it's probably my battery or my device that is defecti've. This was a gift and I'm sure it is out of warranty, not that I'd be able to get the receipt even if it was. I've already emailed customer care. I'm just wondering what people's general overall experience has been with support and if it's even worth trying to go through the support channels to get it fixed. Thanks in advance.
Kristal?

I am having the same problems....only I can't even get mine to come on. I have only had this thing for like 5 months.....if I would have known I was gonna have this many problems.... I would have went with another brand. And it would really help if I could get someone to give me a straight answer when I call! I am SOSOSO irritated!!

IWeb SEO tool question about tagging images: what do others do?

I've been reading everybody's posts and started to use iWeb SEO Tool to add meta tags to all my pages. (since google couldn't verify my site with html) The page titles, keywords, and meta tags are relatively easy to decide on, but I don't know what to do about some of the images.
If it's a definite photo of a subject, no problem, but what about those pesky shapeimage5_link0 and shapeimage_1.jpg files?
What do i name them ? line 1, thicker line 2, arrow? (I'm being flippant here, ... really).
I've just been calling them 'stained glass link' or 'next arrow link' but that's pretty dull.
In some cases (for the lines) i've titled them with the name of the webpage again, but with several lines on the page, that tag is repeated, a lot. (And i read that if you repeat the same tag too frequently, your site is banned from google, which i don't want.)
I thought they didn't matter too much but when i did a search from one of the search engines, the description of the web page actually included shapeimage5a.png or some such thing, and i don't want that to appear in people's searches !!
So what do other people do about these? How do you name them?
Thanks for the suggestions
Elizabeth

You'll get instructions about the HTML verification file here....
http://www.iwebformusicians.com/SearchEngines/Tools.html
The main thing with images is TEXT. Put a text caption for each. If possible, don't use the iWeb Photos and Albums templates.
Put a text description at the top of every page with keywords in both the title and text. The spiders will pick up on this.
If you don't do this, at least put a fairly long title tag in. Make sure the first few words are descriptive of the page so that they are relevant to a page bookmark.
If the search engines are picking up on stuff like "shapeimage5_link0" it means that you haven't supplied any unique and relevant text!

Question about brightening images and automating layers

I've been using Photoshop CS5 for a while now but there are still a few things I'm wondering about.
The first is about brightening an image without adding or reducing too much contrast at the same time. If I increase the Brightness slider in the Brightness/Contrast window it often adds too much unwanted contrast and will wash out parts of the image or cause too much saturation. Same thing when using Curves to brighten the image. On the other hand I've found that using Levels to brighten the image reduces too much contrast and desaturates the image too much...and then when I add more contrast in afterward, parts of the image will become washed out again. So far the best solution I've found has been to brighten the images with Shadows/Highlights, but this will often pose its own set of problems by creating or eliminating shadows in a way that doesn't flatter the image. It can also add too much contrast in some cases. Is there any other way around this that I'm missing? Or is this all to be expected when brightening images? The only other workaround I've found has been to add in separate un-affected layers for the areas of the picture that become too washed out when the brightness is increased but then there's always a problem of getting those parts of the picture to match up with the rest afterward.
The second is about having layers for each change applied to an image. Is there any way to have each change that is applied to an image automatically also be made into its own separate layer? For example, if I sharpen a part of the image that would automatically become layer 2, then if I adjusted the saturation that would automatically become layer 3 and so on. I know the History Panel does something very similar to this, and that's the type of thing I'm looking for, but I'd like each of those changes being made into a layer instead of just a recorded history state. This way, for example, I could individually adjust each change with the opacity slider and compare the image with and without some of the changes by clicking the eye icon next to each layer. I know new layers can be created manually but I'm looking for some way to automate it.
Thanks for the help.

You seem to have no firm grasp yet on the concept of non-destructive image editing using Photoshop’s existing options, specifically Adjustment Layers, Smart Objects/Smart Filters and Layer Masks.
The Layers structure is a much more valuable tool than the History in my opinion.
Instead of applying an Adjustment or Filter destructively you might want to try applying it as an Adjustment Layer or a Smart Filter (either with its own Mask or on a copy of the Smart Object with a Layer Mask, because all Smart Filters applied to one instance of a Smart Object must share one Mask).
Those Layers can subsequently be changed with regard to Opacity, Blend Mode etc. or the Adjustment and Filter settings themselves.

Question about an image in a text frame

hi, everybody,<br /> i want to get the UIDRef to an image in a text frame and i used the codes below: <br /><br />UIDRef imageUIDRef = UIDRef(database, ownedList[i].fUID);;<br /> InterfacePtr<IImageDataAccess> imageAccess(imageUIDRef, IID_IIMAGEDATAACCESS);<br /><br />(ownedList[i] is the list which contains the inline boss i want to get)<br /><br />here i always get an imageAccess == nil, i think it is caused by the invalid imageUIDRef.<br /><br />can someone tell me how to resolve this??? or tell me another way to get the UIDRef to the image.<br /><br />Thanks a lot!!

Oliver and Quake,
during initial development, you frequently reach a method that just returns a UID, UIDList etc. That approach with IUnknown and debugclassutil is a way to determine the boss class of such a UID in clear text, for your further research.
You would then go to the documentation (programming guide, API docs, samples) and find out about the typical use of this boss class. This mainly means you find the list of interfaces supported by the boss class.
Open docs/references/sdkdocs/html/classIImageAttributes.html
See at the bottom that this interface is on kImageItem and some strange others, but not on kInlineBoss.
Open docs/references/sdkdocs/html/classkInlineBoss.html
See it has an interface IHierarchy.
If you do not find your desired interface on a boss class, that means you have to navigate to a different boss object.
IHierarchy is an important interface for navigation in the page, because it implements the page item tree. So when the programming guide tells you to use IHierarchy to find an image from the inline boss, follow that path. On the other hand, it is just one interface of many, so you can't do that generalization that it fits all purposes. Even on the page tree you can encounter inlines, text on path that form a separate page item tree. To know the best path is called experience.
In the release code you should not wire to specific ::GetClass values (as seen somewhere in this thread). Instead, you have an expectation of interfaces, and if an object supports them it is ok. Let's say I implement a new page item boss to support strange text flow or different image types. That page item will still have bounds. If you need bounds, find the appropriate interface and just use it. The same goes for attributes - if you deal with attributes in general and encounter a new attribute that supports the standard interfaces, just let it through.
Oliver, I don't even know the boss class returned by IIDXMLElement->GetContentItem() for your specific purposes, but I would take the same approach. I use a plugin grown in the past 5 years that visits most interfaces and hooks into all notifications I ever encountered. This produces tons of output, but otherwise it is the same as with simple debugclassutil.
An important issue is the preparation of test data. You just have to know that XML elements can point to many things in the InDesign universe, so tag a few tables, inlines, TOP, page items that use standoff and so forth, and see what you get. WYSIWYG at its best.
Of course I could spend the whole day constructing examples, doing the analysis and copy-paste-post code. At least for me that is beyond the scope of the forum - maybe Adobe will some time replace Ken, otherwise there are the developer support cases. As I am not sponsored by paycheck, most of the time I try to keep my answers to short keywords or plain text - you will rarely see code from me. If you need that, there have been several postings on this list, and I am also available for consulting.

Question about taking Images from video in FCP

I just recently upgraded from pinnacle to FCP 7 and am loving it. My question is when I try to take a still Image from video using Quick Time Conversion, the image comes out blurry or with bars around the edges of people. At first I thought It was because I was trying to capture a moving Image, but then I tried it with someone standing still and I ran into the same problem.
I shoot with a Canon XH-A1

Take the exported file to Photoshop and use Image Size to correct the aspect ratio of the image. Apply the Deinterlace filter in Photoshop to remove the interlacing.

Question about Zen Micro's Hard Drive (not negati

My brother keeps telling me that the Zen Micro does not have a real hard dri've or anything like his Ipod, which I highly debate because I know it's not true. Can anyone tell me what really is inside the Micro so that I can make him believe me? I know that it's something from Seagate.Message Edited by rmccabe96 on 06-06-2005 2:9 AM

The Micro and all the current 4, 5 and 6 gig players (including iPOD mini use " hard dri'ves.
These are about the same dri'ves as used in CF type micro-dri'ves.
The larger players Current 0 Gig and up use the smaller lap top sized dri'ves.
I think they are .8" diameter disks.

Few questions about Zen V p

okay i just got this mp3 player and have a few questions...
- where is the "selected music" section, i cant find the folder.
- how do you get the music to transfer onto your player in track order instead of abc order.

I tried the selected music folder. i pressed down in now playing (held it down) and nothing happened. its just frustrating to find all the music in the selected folder when it doesnt have a list of playists or albums. i used to have a jukebox zen extra so im used to their selected music folder...is that the same type of folder on this player?
i did rip all my cds and they go in abc order when i rip them. i was wondering if there is an option on the creative organizer that makes them transfer in track number order.
also another question...
how do you edit the album art that shows up in the "now playing" section? i found that many albums dont have album art (even though they did on windows media player) or that some had album art of the wrong cd. so is there any way to correct these mistakes?

Some questions about Zen Micro before to buy

Hi all, i'm thinking to buy a Zen Micro mp3 player, so i'm searching for the Web reviews and news about the Micro to understand if it is good for me, because about 250 euro is an important money amuont to spend for me.
And now i have 2 doubts:
) I have read that firmware "ZenMicro_PCFW_L4_2_00_2_MTP.exe" can freeze the Micro or to make Windows Xp does not recognise it. Is it real?
2) Will Zen Micro support the "mp3 pro" format in future firmware updates? It think "mp3 pro" is fantastic and has much more audio quality than wma o normal mp3 in very less space on disk.
Thanks to all people who will answer to me, excuse me for my imperfect english_
archigius

Archigius,
I have installed the version 2 firmware on several players and have yet to have run into any problems. I know there are people who have experienced them, but I think that the probability of this is low. Here are some suggestions on making sure it will work:
) Disable your antivirus before running the update. This really applies to all dri've/firmware updates.
2) Turn off all of your player related software.
3) Make sure you have Windows Media Player 0 and SP or higher installed
This is all you should have to do to make sure things go well.

Question about Disk Image Backup/Restoring

Ok, so i have a weird Boot Camp error that requires reformatting of my whole drive. Now I have thought up a procedure that I think will work, let me know if this is a viable option:
1: Hook up a 320GB External Firewire Drive
2: Boot up using the 10.6 DVD
3: Go into Disk Utility
4: Make an image of the Macintosh HD and save it to the External Drive
5: Format the Macintosh HD
6: Restore the Macintosh HD using the Image
If i do this, will everything be hunky dory? Nothing is wrong with this? Thanks!

Copy the content of the external to the internal--into an appropriately named folder. Then, clone your internal to the external. I would just use DU. First, use DU to partition the external GUID--which also will format it OS X extended (journaled). You might want to make two partitions if you have room (see below). To clone, go to the restore tab; select your internal volume and drag it to the source box. Then, select your external and drag it to the destination box. Then, click restore. If you can't perform the operation without previously selecting erase distination, then select it; let DU erase again; and then click restore.
In an hour, more or less, you'll be ready to take care of your internal drive issue. Piece of cake. When you have fixed the internal, then just clone you Sno install on the external back to the internal. If you made two partitions, then copy the original external data to the second partition and remove it from your Sno installs if you want.
