Question of 'round corner' effects. Can't get it to work.

Hi there. I am new to Adobe Illustrator and I have a basic question. I can't seem to get the 'round corner' effect to work as seen in this tutorial:
http://blogspoon.s3.amazonaws.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/skate-deck/Picture-6.png
I have used the 'Pen' tool to draw a line, and I have applied my saved brush type to the line and it works fine. The problem arises when I attempt to implement the "round corner' effect on the line, such that it bends the way it does in the screenshot above. After implementing the effect, I do not see any visible changes even when I set the radius to over 200px. The line remains straight.
Any idea what I'm doing wrong?
Thanks a million
Josh

They have this al wrong.
The effect makes round corners but do not distort or change the path in any other way.
If you add a point in the middle of the line and apply a round corner it will indeed make that point into a round corner but you will not be able to see it because the path is straight.
here is a video and the paths do not have to 90º (perpendicular) to each other.

Round Corners Effect Can someone explain what's happening?

I just don't get what's going on here... I have this shape, a bent rectangle and I need it to have rounded corners. When I apply the effect Round Corners the shape is transformed to a completely diferent shape instead of just applying round corners on each corner. See image below. What am I doing wrong?

Now you've done it!
What's happening well I would say it was not working, which means it is a bug.
However you can get it to work if you do it one of three ways.
Draw your rectangle then give it a round corner effect or convert it to a round corner rectangle
then give it either a warp effect or go to Object>Envelop Distort>Make with Warp and then expand.
You can expand the warp effect as well.
The third way is to make a round corner rectangle and either do the warp from the Object menu or do it as an effect.
Otherwise the explanation for the result you see is it is a bug. It shouldn't happen.
I think this might have been reported.

I have a question. For the past week I have not been able to access my iTunes app it always kicks me out. I've turned it off and on and still nothing. I was wondering how can I get it to work or what should I do. Thank you

You need a computer with iTunes and an internet connection
Try:
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

My iPod Classic is seen by Windows but not by iTunes. I have reset it, gone to disk mode and it won't show up in iTunes. There appears to be music on it in a file called MUSICSAVE. How can I get this to work with iTunes again?

1. Update iTunes to the latest version. Plug in your iPod. If iTunes still can't recognize it, then in iTunes in the top left corner click help> run diagnostics. On the box that comes up, check the last two things. Click next and it should identify your iPod.
2. Click on your windows start menu. Type in "services". Click on it and when it pops up, on the bottom of it click on "standard". Now Scroll down to find "Apple Mobile Device" Right click it when you see it and click on "Start". When it has started, close iTunes and replug in your iPod and it should show up.
3. Check the USB cable
4 Verify that Apple Mobile Device Support is installed
5. Restart the Apple Mobile Device Service and verify that the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver is installed.
6. If you just want to add some photos, songs and movies from computer to your devices, you can use an iTunes alternative to do the job

Can't get audio to work on my Panasonic Plasma smart TV when I connect a Toslink optical mini to Toslink optical digital to my mid 2009 MacBook pro?

My MAc book pro 5.5 is mid 2009, Processor speed 2.26 GHZ MacOS X VERSION 10.68 Leopard. My Tv is a Panasonic Plasma smart TV TC-P50ST60. I ordered from Amazon a Toslink optical mini to Toslink optical digital cable meant for Macbook pro 2009 forward. I changed the settings on both TV and Mac but I still can't get audio to work on TV. I believe my Mac can't see the audio output from the TV. Any advice with step by step instructions on how to fix it? could it be they sent me defective cables? Thank You for your help.

When I spoke with Apple I made sure I told them that my Macbook Pro was Mid 2009 and he ensured me again that those to cords will work. I realize that with the newer models it does put through both sound and audio but because of my model I don't think it does obviously because I have played with both Sound on my computer and Sound on the TV and nothing works. Sometime Apple can be good but man some people lol he even told me he verified my computer model on the computer and that's what came up.
So new question would be what kind of cable would I be looking for to get audio? Anyone before I call back to Apple and see what they say hahah

Cdemu - can't get it to work (can't connect do dbus, no cdemu module)

Hi all! As the topic subject says, I can't get cdemu to work.
I'm trying to use it to mount some .mdf images (wanna play Diablo 2 again, and I really don't wanna use the CDs for this).
So here goes. First I tried mounting the .mdf image with cdemu, like this...
cdemu load 0 01.Install.mdf
I get an error message:
ERROR: Failed to connect to CDEmu daemon: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name net.sf.cdemu.CDEMUD_Daemon was not provided by any .service files
ERROR: Failed to connect to daemon (bus: 'session')!
So I found somewhere that I should compile the cdemu-daemon and cdemu-client...
yaourt -Sb --noconfirm cdemu-daemon cdemu-client
now, cdemu-daemon compiles fine, but cdemu-client doesn't seem to compile. what I get as an error is this:
Byte-compiling python modules...
__init__.pycdemu.py File "/usr/lib/python3.1/site-packages/cdemu/cdemu.py", line 128
except dbus.DBusException, e:
^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
The full output is in the pastebin.
So anyway, cdemu client installs (althought the success of this is obviously questionable at best), and when I try mounting an image, I (probably as expected) get this:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/cdemu", line 23, in <module>
import cdemu, cdemu.cdemu
ImportError: No module named cdemu
A little more digging revealed that cdemu-client is still compiled against python2 rather than python3, so that would probably be the reason why my compile fails.
I would be very grateful if someone could tell me how to get this thing to work. And if I can help compiling this package properly, please do tell me how.
Thanks in advance!

Can't get slideshow to work!

Sorry about yet another basic question, but I can't get slideshow to work.
I have created a My Photos page template, dragged an Album into it. That looks OK, but when I click on play slideshow, nothing happens.
Enable Slideshow is ticked in Inspector.
Any help on this?

What's the URL of your site so we can examine it first hand? How are you uploading the files? Maybe not all files are getting to the server. Wouldn't be the first time that happened.

Can't get Export to work

I'm relatively new to Fireworks. I created a small image map, but when I try to export the image and html to Dreamweaver, I get a message a message saying "Could not complete your request - The file was not found." I've tried Export, Export Wizard, rebooting, and a bunch of other stuff - but still can't get it to work. I'm using the Trial version (but it's the same as the regular version, right?) on a Mac running SnowLeopard.
Other than this, and an issue with the Text function that I posted about in a different thread, I like Fireworks a lot and was planning to buy it - so I hope there's a way to get Export to work with images/html so it won't be a showstopper. I'm assuming I must be doing something wrong.
Thanks.

Linda, thanks for responding to my question.
Unfortunately, I'm unable to upload the file to you. Everything I try gives the "file not found" message (but the file is right there on my screen, in front of me as I'm getting this message), so I don't know how to get it to you. The only way that I've found to get the file "out" of Fireworks is to save it as a .jpg file (which of course eliminates the "hotspots" and associated html), and then open it in Mac's Preview utility and also in Dreamweaver. I could send you the .jpg file if you'd like, but since it no longer contains the hotspots and there's no html, I'm not sure that's too useful.
I tried adding the clickable hotspots back in with Dreamweaver, and that worked and also produced usable html.
I noted in a separate forum message that the Text function has also stopped working for me, although it was fine initially. However, I can no longer add text, and when I try to edit existing text, the existing text disappears from my image.
Has my copy of Fireworks somehow become corrupted? Should I reinstall? Other than these issues, I like the product a lot and would like to be able to use it.
Thanks!

Can't get mic to work on Acer TravelMate P

Hello there Arch forum.
@mod
I'm not sure if this post is best placed in laptop/media or newbie corner, I have used Arch for 2 years now but I'm a noob on pulseaudio.
Feel free to move it to the desired location.
Anyone have any suggestions on how to get my head set microphone to work in mumble on my Acer TravelMate P laptop.
I have tried different things that was suggested on the PulseAuido Troubleshooting page.
But I think its a problem with a hardware button that can mute the microphone located just beneath the screen.
When press the button nothing happens..
