Questions on Track Transpose and Score Layout

Hi all -
I'm posting these questions for my 14-yr old son who is the Logic Express user, so apologies as I might be asking the questions the wrong way. :-)
My son is writing an arrangement of the song Friday (Rebecca Black) :-) for his Middle School Marching Band. It sounds pretty cool so far, btw, and I have to admit the song is quite catchy. Haha.
Question 1: Is there a way to transpose a track independently of other tracks? As you know, some marching band instruments (flute, clarinet, etc) play natively in a different key, and he wants the appropriate key to show in the printed score. When he sets the key for a given track, every other track is changed as well, which won't work.
Question 2: When printing the score, is there a way to remove the bass clef? For some instruments (trumpet, for example) there are no notes in the bass clef and it's a waste to print the bass clef at all. He just wants the score to be more compact (and use less paper).
I hope I did his questions justice. :-) Any feedback would be very helpful! Thanks!

So I asked my son if I asked his questions correctly, and I guess I didn't. :-/ So, thanks, anyway, for reading. I'll be posting a different question shortly.
Mods: Please delete if needed. Thanks!

Waveburner; a few Questions regarding track files and Session Data

After a bit of negotiating, I'm almost ready to burn. Was having problems with file locations and discovered that i had multiple files in different locations. Those have been eliminated and all relative track files are in one place now with the Song Data File as well.
I then re-imported the individual aif tracks only to find that all of my fades and edits are GONE. It appears that I may have to DO THEM ALL OVER AGAIN! Please tell me that there is a work around.
Is it possible to import only the Session Data related to the fades and edits(everything but the actual audio files), so as to avoid all this "do-again" work?
I was also wonder if it is necessary, or perhaps a good idea, to change the File INFO for each of the individual audio track files from "OpenWith" iTunes (default setting) to "Open With": WAVEBURNER ?. (selectable on the aiff files, "Show More Info" window
Currently the aif files are set to "OpenWith" iTunes (default)
One last question please.
Is Waveburner really up to snuff? How many people are using this for Mastering and Burning CD's? I'm about to start inserting some AU Mastering Plug Ins and I'm hoping for the best. Any other suggestions are greatly appreciated.

You're grammer isn't bad jord, it was I who asked a plethora of questions under one Subject heading.
When i open the project file(.wb3),
The prompt says;
"Please choose a replacement from the list below:"
/Volumes/320GB HD/Users/ahuihou/.Trash/1 Track 01.aiff
/Volumes/320GB HD/Users/ahuihou/.Trash/2 Track 02.aiff
/Volumes/320GB HD/Users/ahuihou/.Trash/3 Track 03.aiff
/Volumes/320GB HD/Users/ahuihou/.Trash/4 Track 04.aiff
/Volumes/320GB HD/Users/ahuihou/.Trash/6 Track 06.aiff
As you can see the files are in the trash.
The first problem is that there are no actual files in the trash. Just an icon of a CD Disc which was dragged there to eject it, It is no longer in the disc drive/tray. Perhaps i should put the disc back in the drive and then update/replace the files afterwords. (The CD is scratched.)
The strange thing is that i can still preview the track that's in the trash by selecting More Info and playing it on the little Quicktime player bar. I guess the file is in a cache somewhere?
I've looked everywhere on all drives for the specific files but can not find them anywhere.
In the Replacement prompt there is a place that I can check to "Search in the same folder for subsequent files" button on the "Replacement" prompt.
which "same folder" is it refering to?
The Trash folder where the old files are or the Folder where the actual .wb3 project file is? I do have all of the correctly named song files/regions in the same folder with the project file.
maybe i should just start again. i'm not one to give up easy though and would much prefer to "beat" the computer at the game.

Questions on tracking iphone and viewing pictures and texts

is it possible to track the location of another persons iphone? also is it possible to look up past texts/picture messages on a persons iphone to "spy"?

You can track any iPhone with find my friends app but each owner has to approve the location app also I don't know of anything short of a court order that will let someone else see what you are doing on the phone. Now any iPhone or apple device that you know the I d and password for can be tracked from the cloud if they have find my iPhone enabled and anyone with access to the bill can see numbers of callers and texts although iMessages do not show up on the bill they can be set up to go to another apple device as well as your iPhone if they are set up to go to an apple I d instead of a phone number and the iPhone can have more than one numbers messages if they are using the same iTunes account

Questions about track listing and album

I have burnt my collection of an audio drama I have on CD and transferred them to the Creative Vision M. The problem is the tracks play in alphabetical order, not in the numerical order (as in #1, 2, 3, etc.)
I've gone and used MP3 Tag Editor to check the tracks 3 times. On my Archos, the tracks play according to order by #1(which happens to be the story order). How can I fix this order?
Also, album isn't displayed despite the fact they've been attached using MP3 Tag Editor. The art is displayed on my Zune and the Archos but not on the Vision M.
Help :robotsad:

It could have something to do with the file system that was used... my old Zen MuVO played whatever I added in the order it was added because the file system was a external flash drive system. The Zune and the Zen both may use a different file system that plays and sort the tracks based on certain tag info. I know that from what I've read on here that the file system that the Zen uses is the main reason why SD card integration is impossible.

Tracking Individual Users Scores using Captivate 4 and Connect Enterprise

Hi,
I work in an IT shop and currently I am having trouble supporting our Marketing division's Captivate needs. They wish to be able to create quizes for online viewing in an LMS and be able to track individual users scores for accountability. Right now I we are using Captivate 4 with Adobe Connect Enterprise. I have been able to use the LMS and view quizes online, but all reporting is done as aggregate and not a session by session (individual) basis. Thus, I only have access to average, max, min scores and other info about all test takers, but no information about specific test users. I have considered accomplishing this by sending data to an access database, but this would require the IT deparment to regularly assist them with creating tests. Obviously I am looking to have the Marketing department be as self-sufficient as they can be. I think the easiest way would be to have the quiz report a session ID (unique for each instance of the quiz being accessed) to Adobe Connect and having Connect associate each aswer to a specific session ID. Other than that I do not have any other ideas for proper tracking of each user's score.
Does anyone know what the easiest (least amount of involvement from the IT staff each time Marketing needs to make a test in captivate) way to accomplish this?
Thanks!

So, i sorta found a way to do this -- by adding a TOC and making the lessons self-paced, the user will always be brought back to the place where they left off when they exited the lesson.
But it seems that even though the icon in the curriculum list changes to CONTINUE when the user closes the lesson, it still unlocks the next lesson even though the staus checkmarks in the previous lesson are not complete.
Help. Are there any other such postings?

Keeping track of baseball runners and score.

I am new to java and am trying to come up with a way to keep track of base runners and scores for a baseball game. again I am new so the simplest way is preferred. Any help would be appreciated, thanks alot.

Hi schlueterd!
Build a small applet extending Runnable, ie: a threaded one. Each time its "run" method loops the applet will read an small input file and updates "displaying score" component.
Of course you'll need to update this input file as soon as possible.
You'll use few classes and a good reference is any applet displaying scrolling text (search for open source in the web).
I hope it helps.

Track actions and send them to a server.

I am not expert in Adobe Captivate but I was inquired by a possible customer if we would be able to track presentations and trainings, like capturing for example when the user viewed it, time taken, get some text field inputs, quiz results, etc. In summary, they want to have a database with user behavior, statistics, etc. Reading the documentation I still don't have conclusive answers to these questions:
1) Is it possible to define events (Advanced Actions?) and send information back to a server when it triggers? For example, the user finished a quiz and the result is sent to a server on the Internet via a Web Service our even a URL with parameters (e-mail is not viable).
2) If this is not available, is it possible to capture these while playing the presentation inside a Adobe Flex application some how ? Cue points?.
3) Can custom, hidden AS3 Widgets do this perhaps?
If someone can point me to a paper or documentation I appreciate.
Thanks in advance,
Mauricio.

Hi Mauricio,
With the level of detail of tracking that your customer want you are much better off by deploying the course in an LMS. That would take care of most of the tracking issues. There are many free LMS's available as open source so you could just use one of those. The Moodle LMS is a popular choice, but as long as the LMS is SCORM compliant it doesn't really matter much in my opinion.
As for your questions:
1) I don't think this approach would be possible.
2) This would be possible. If you have a Flex or Flash shell you are able to access the Captivate system variables and then do whatever you want with them. I doubt that you would be able to get the text field inputs, but other than that you can get pretty much everything you want.
3) Same as number 2. Yes it would be possible.
There is an article on Adobe Developernet describing how you "hack" the email functionality of Captivate in order to store the data in a database. Perhaps you could get something out of this: http://www.adobe.com/devnet/captivate/articles/store_cpresults.html
Other than that I am not aware of any documentation in relation to this subject.
I myself am working on a Flash / PHP solution to authenticate users in Flash and store their progress, score etc. but I just started so can't really share anything with you.

Is there a bug in the score layout drop-down?

I have a project with 6 software instrument tracks, each track is one region. When I select all tracks and try using the score editors drop down Layout option"create score from selection" I never get the top most track in the score.. I have tried creating a new score set but it still leaves the top track out of the score. There are no hidden or muted regions and no MIDI data tracks. I am still in OS10.5.8 because I am watching other forums to see if pro users are moving up and all I see are big problems with 10.6, I may do what they are doing and change my MBP to 10.6 then 10.7 and see what works, but my main work is done on the iMac so I need to figure this out. Any help would be greatly appreciated. This happens also when I choose "All Instruments" score set-shouldn't that default show all the tracks?

Thanks christiano and Jim, but that causes my 9.1.1 to change the position, length and pitch of 90% of the regions' notes. I have been repeating the same copy paste commands for 4 hours and now they seem slowly to begin to work[Jobs has left the building]. I did try before my original post the option dragging in the Arrange but as I wrote it causes too many mistakes, unless there are only a simple repeated series of a single note-THEN it decides to work.
Any other ideas would be interesting but Apple should get the copy paste in the score going too.

Reporting Progress and Scores in LMS

Hi all,
I am having some trouble incorporating my Captivate presentations into an LMS and getting it to report both progress and assessments correctly. This could be a lengthy post, so I apologize in advance.
Let me start by including my current setups:
The desired outcome is as follows:
Progress
- I want to report progress up until the exam; for instance, if a user leaves midway through, on slide 15 of 30, Captivate should relaunch on slide 15 for that user
- Once I get to the exam, users should not be able to backtrack to previous slides.
- If the user starts the exam, but doesn't finish, it should report to the LMS whatever score was earned, counting unanswered questions as 0's.
- Once an exam is failed, and this is the tricky part, I want the course to completely restart. Right now, it's loading mid-exam, and if I try to go back, it chain-pauses the presentation; possibly a conflict since I have it set to not allow users to go back once the exam is started. Essentially, once a score is reported, I want to wipe the cookie saving the progress clean.
Is there a way I can achieve all of this through Captivate?
Any help would be MUCH appreciated. Right now, the best compromise I can come up with to check "Never Send Resume Data" and not save a users progress - but when I turn this off, it also isn't communicating the exam scores to the LMS either.
Thanks in advance!

I can't promise that you can have everything you want, but perhaps some of your wishes are certainly doable in Captivate.
I note from your settings that you have the course Report Status set to track Complete/Incomplete rather than Pass/Fail, yet you talk about wanting the user to complete "exam" quiz questions and you also have Report Data set to Quiz Results Only. There's something inherently contradictory about these settings. Complete/Incomplete is mostly for recording slide views. If recording quiz results is most important, I think you should really be using Pass/Fail. It's an either/or decision. Most LMSs are far more likely to be reliable on the Pass/Fail setting and some just don't do Complete/Incomplete at all anyway.
I would also recommend you change your Report to LMS setting to Percent rather than Score. In my experience, Percent is more LMS "friendly".
For starters, there are two mechanisms available for allowing the user to resume a course module at the same point they left off:
One option is to tick the option in TOC settings for Self-paced Learning. This writes data to a Shared Object (Flash Cookie) on the user's PC that records the slide they finished on. Captivate doesn't provide a means to erase this cookie out of the box. You'd have to get some programming done in AS3 to achieve that extra functionality.
Option 2 is to untick the box in LMS Customisation Settings for Never Send Resume Data. This then will mean the Captivate lesson DOES send resume data to the LMS. With this option you are depending on the LMS to keep track of where your user got up to. But be warned. This setting is more reliable when it comes to tracking which scored object (e.g, a quiz question slide) the user got up to. I'm not sure how reliable it is when it comes to tracking slide views because each LMS is slightly different as to it's abilities to track data. In my experience, using Self-Paced Learning is better for straight out slide view tracking, but it's also a pain when users that completed the course come back later to browse the content again because they get shunted straight to the last slide. Quite annoying. So I don't use it.
Now for some of your other wishes:
To prevent users backtracking to previous slides once they've reached the exam, simply disable Backward movement under Quiz Settings. Remember that as far as Captivate is concerned, the quiz begins at the very first scored object, which might be a button or click box, not necessarily the first quiz question.
If a user only partially completes an exam, the LMS should still receive a score for each completed quiz question slide as long as you have Reporting Level set to Interactions and Score. But be aware that this means the LMS will be getting pinged by the course after each and every user interaction, which can place quite a load on the LMS if there are lots of simultaneous users.
By default in Captivate, if a user gets a question wrong they get no score for that question. So that one is easy.
Your final wish is to force the entire quiz to restart if the user flunks it. I may be misunderstanding your drift but why not just allow the user multiple attempts at the quiz? You can set this under Quiz > Settings > Pass/Fail. Tick the box for Show Retake Quiz Button and place this button right over the top of the Review Quiz button on the Quiz Results slide. The user will only see the Retake Quiz button if they fail the quiz and when they click it, their previous quiz answers are erased, effectively forcing them to redo the entire quiz. Wouldn't that get you what you want?
One more thing. Beware of the options in the drop down menu under Quiz > Settings > Required. I generally set this to Optional, as some of the other settings can cause unpredictable results with LMSs.
Hopefully this info will get you closer to your goals.

Adding Menue Audio Track selection and soubtitles on/off

Hi,
with some help from replies to other questions I managed to get a working DVD/BR with cool 2.0 / 5.1 sound and subtitles.
But for now I do have to select the audio track manually and also I do have to enable subtitles from the DVD/BR players menu.
So I wanted to add a DVD/BR menu where you can choose the audio track which should be played and to switch on and of subtitles.
I edited a nice PS PSD File with some buttons and they show up in Encore and I can do some "encore" editig like moving tham arrond or link to some other elements.
My question: How do I get e.g. the Button "2.0 Stereo" to select the stereo track and the button "5.1 Surround" to select the 5.1 track. An other button should switch on/off the right subtitle
Than I'd like to have a button which starts the video with the selected audio and if selected subtitle on.
At the end of the movie I like to be back in the menu.
I bet thats simple
I thought to create different timelines and add the audio/video/subtitle, but that i have a lot of timelines in all sort of combinations; e.g. video ON, 5.1 sound ON, subtitle OFF ..... video ON, 2.0 sound ON, subtitle ON etc ....
Thansk for any suggestion . and BIG thanks. Götz

Thanks for your posting, but there is the higlight Layer.
I opend the menue in photoshot once more and enabled the layers.
For me a button has the following different states:
Normal, no highlight,just "plain" text. e.g. "English Subtitle". in that state, the Subtitle is NOT selected/enabled.
Mouse Over, the highlight shows up, so you can see where you are with your mouse. e.g. "English Subtitle √"
Mouse left click, the highlight "sticks" to the menue item and when moving the mouse avay it is still highlighted, e.g. "English Subtitle √"
So I'd liked to indicate which audio track is enabled/selected and if subtitles are off or on.
I thought, the highlight button states are markend with (=1) & (=3) ....
BTW. in encore menue edit mode, if I click the show selected/activated Subpicture Highlight, the right layer shows up (with my √-symbol)
But in preview mode or on a burned dvd this did not work
Regards . Götz

Questions about BLOG feature and about Google Maps Widget

Hi, just started using iweb & mobileme to take a break from dreamweaver & ISP host (I am so bored with both of them). iWeb 09 seems very VERY cool, but I chose a theme with a blog feature for a blog I am starting for our studio, and it works strangely. The entries are replicated in full on the blog home page, and that does not make sense. Read more? Why, you just read it all! Albeit in smaller print and different layout. But I am sure that I am missing something there:) Also, how do people comment on the articles? I see nothing there!
On google map, I want to add a pin but don't see how using the widget. It only gives me a google known address, which are few and far between in Nepal. So how do I fix that?
Here is the draft site:

ALSO, BONUS QUESTION: where is the best place to get more/better canned themes for iWeb, and are there tips on installing them? thx!!!

How do I transpose and group a table in a ViewObject?

Hi,
I want to transpose and group a table within a view object and don't know how to do it.
Please let me explain what I want to do:
One table, e.g. Employees, has one row per employee. Each employee has a departmenent and a room assigned:
Employee
Department
Room
John
Finance
101
Susie
Prod
102
Hank
Finance
103
Now I want to show one row per departmenent and a marked checkbox for each room that has an employee from this department in it:
Department
Room 101
Room 102
Room 103
Finance
X
X
Prod
X
What I already did is, I added a transient attribute of type boolean for each room to the ViewObject for employees. I was able to set the booleans within the method ViewObject::createRowFromResultSet. But I still need to do a grouping by department.
What I don't understand is: is it possible to 1. selecting data, 2. grouping the result and 3. setting booleans for the rooms, anything in the same view object? Or do I need to have two ViewObjects, one that holds the data and another one that prepares and to displays the data?
Btw. the users will change the checkboxes and the changes must be written back to the database (makes no sense for this example, I know...).
Could anything be done in the same ViewObject? If so, which methods do I have to overwrite to do the grouping?
Could someone please give me a hint or let me know where I can find an example of a similar scenario?
Thanks in advance!

Sort the playlist into the desired order, e.g. click the heading for the track no. or album columns, the right-click on the playlist name and click Copy to Play Order. The playlist should now burn in the correct order.

Separating audio Tracks 1 and 2 in Final Cut Pro 6

Hello, So this may seem like a easy question but for some reason I'm having trouble.
I am editing a project with two audio tracks. Track 1 is a lav microphone and track 2 is (back up) boom mic.
All of track 1 is great with the wireless mic so I want to get rid of track 2 and duplicate track 1 and make that new track 2.
I've done this before and never had any problems but now I can't disconnect the two tracks. If one is locked then the other will not
delete. They are stuck together and will not do anything independently.
I'm curious what I'm missing.
If anyone can help that would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
J-

Click on the audio tracks in the timeline to select them, then go to the menu Modify > Stereo Pair to toggle if you want them to behave as a stereo pair or not (you do not).

Tracking sales and creating receipts

My home business needs to track sales and print receipts for customers. Can Numbers do that? If yes, how do I set it up? If not, what's a good alternative?

Numbers can do that. How to set it up is too broad a question for this forum because it would take a booklet to describe it and the set up would be different for every business. Basically you'd need a table to list the sales and separate tables for the invoices. (If Page could merge Numbers data, it would be a lot easier.) You might also need separate tables for each customer, it all depends on what your invoices cover.
There is an invoice template built-in to Numbers if you look. (Do you have the program or the 30-day trial? If not, get it.)
Go to iworkcommunity.com to find some invoice templates or go to the Microsoft Excel website and borrow some excel invoices.
Try Filemaker's Bento for a database solution, but you'll need Leopard to use it.
Try a program devoted to invoicing, like MYOB Accounting. If you go to the Downloads section of the Apple website and search for 'invoice' you'll find other programs.
good luck
