HELP HELP>

I have an imac11...using the os right prior to mav...I don't want to install that yet.
The last MacOS X before Mavericks would be  Mt. Lion, MacOS X 10.8.5. Is that, what you are using? You can see that, if you click the -menu if the upper left corner of your screen, and select "About this Mac".
The latest GarageBand compatible with Mt. Lion is GarageBand '11, version 6.0.5. You can see that in the GarageBand menu, GarageBAnd > About GarageBand.
Where are you saving your projects? On an external drive? How is the drive formatted (file system, and how is the drive connected?

  • Adobe X PDF files converted to jpg, edited and converted back to PDF have ragged, unclear text.  I didn't have this problem with Acrobat 9 standard.  What is the remedy for this.  If this is the best I can expect, I won't be able to use X standard.

    I can't imagine any worse workflow than converting to JPEG to edit text, then back to PDF. Text in a PDF is a vector thing, smooth at all resolutions. And JPEG is made for photos. EVERY conversion to JPEG and back loses quality but how much loss there is will vary.
    If you must go to an image format, try PNG.

    Hi,
    Sorry for the delayed response. These informations are generated in the FormName.err file. If its not the error, then why its not generating for other forms. As I mentioned earlier, this fom has DML sources by the Database Procedures, that could be the reason ?, this is my first project in Forms.

  • Hello, I have an iPad Air. I cannot download adobe flash. Any reason for this? Thanks

    Hello, I have an iPad Air. I cannot download adobe flash. Any reason for this? Thanks

    No Flash for iPads, iPhones, or iPods
    Here's why there's is no Flash available for iDevices or other mobile devices. Adobe was unable to provide a product that was suitable to the needs of battery powered mobile devices used for Internet browsing. Existing Flash technology used too much memory, ate battery life, and was buggy. Simply put Flash did not work well on mobile devices.
    Apple's Steve Jobs led the escape from Flash dependency when Apple introduced the iPhone, and later introduced the iPad. There was a hue and cry over the omission. Time proved Jobs was right on target.
    So this is why there is no Flash for your iPhone or iPad or iPod nor for most SmartPhones. Flash has been abandoned by many sites in favor of supported technologies such as HTML5 or by providing their own custom app.
    Here is Steve Jobs official comment on his momentous decision to omit Flash from iDevices: Steve Jobs on Flash.
    Here is Adobe's later announcement to cease development of Flash for mobile devices: Adobe on Mobile Flash. Adobe is not providing Flash for Apple iOS devices, and they no longer provide Flash for any other cellular phones. Flash is officially gone.
    Now, you are not necessarily out on a limb. There are some apps that can display some Flash, but don't count on there ability to display anything using Flash.
    A sample of Apps that can display some Flash content:
      1. Puffin
      2. SkyFire
      3. Photon Flash
      4. Browse2Go
      5. Swifter
    Also, note that many sites that use Flash provide their own app for accessing their material. So check with your favorite sites and find out if "there's an app for that."
    Download the Facebook app from the iTunes Store. Sign in with your Facebook ID and Password and you won't require flash to play videos.

  • Why do I get Error FIL-080101: Cannot open file

    Hi,
    Most likely a user error, once again :(. I am using DS 12.2.0.0.
    This question is also posted in BoB [http://www.forumtopics.com/busobj/viewtopic.php?p=767673#767673].
    I have created a ERP SAP datastore and imported one function, which is a simple BAPI. It takes 3 simple char parameters and returns a BAPIRET2 table.
    I have a dataflow which contains:
    - An Excel source file with the input parameters
    - A query using the BAPI
    - A flat target file to contain the result
    I have checked the following:
    - wiki [https://wiki.sdn.sap.com:443/wiki/display/BOBJ/SharedDirectoryaccess]
       --> I checked my Services logon properties for Data Services. The logon is set to the Administrator and not to local
    - SAP Note 1388857 (Error: "Cannot open file <<path to pcache area and file name>>. Please check its path and permissions." - Data Services XI 3.2 (12.2))
      --> I have no problem executing other jobs and reading the files. I only have the issue that when using the ABAP data flow
    It is not clear to me which users is trying to access the files. The SAP user? The Job Server? If the job server, I don't understand why it has issues in this particular job when all others are fine.
    Help appreciated.
    Best Regards
    Isabelle

    - Is the file on the same machine as the Job Server?
    (in the designer at the bottom right you can hover over the Job Server icon to see if it is the same machine, as you will know my now
    It is the Job Server that is executing the job, so the puth must be OK for it, not the designer you are using.
    - If they are the same machine, did you browse to the file or put the path?
    - Try putting the file into the tutorial path to see if it is a permission issue.

  • Cap5. Corrupt files? Cannot open files I just created/saved

    Hello,
    I'm using Captivate 5 on Windows 7 to create demos of an application. I record the demo, add a few text boxes, tweak a few elements, adjust the timing and insert a few PPTs.
    I save the file often. I close the file and then try to reopen get the following message:
    This has happened for a number of files. Despite what the message says about 'solutions' I've had to recreate the entire recording.
    Can anyone help? Thanks.

    Changes which i suggested will be for a project, it won't affect the published output.
    After doing those changes, try to record again, that should resolve your problem
    Thanks

  • LR 4 V 4.4:  Doesn't recognize Nikon D610 NEF files.  What is the fix for this?

    I have Lightroom 4, version 4.4 and it will not recognize the Nikon D610 NEF files.  This version recognizes my Nikon D800 NEF files.  What is wrong and what is the fix?  Thanks.

    I would expect lr6 to come out any day now though. Perhaps an idea is to use dng converter in the mean time? Don't want you to have to spend money twice in a short time.

  • I just updated to 10.9.3. I now cannot open Mail - it comes up with an error window and suggests it may be incompatible with this OS. What is the fix for this? Thanks

    When I try to open Mail from the launchbar it won't open and comes up with a window saying it may be incompatible with this version of OS X.
    What is the answer to fix this?!

    Backup for safety on at least two reliable drives.
    Reinstall using the combo update at http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1746
    You would be wise to quit all apps, disconnect all peripherals and preferably delete all email accounts before upgrading.

  • Cannot backup iPhone 3GS. Error Message: iTunes could not backup iPhone because iPhone Disconnected. What is the fix for this problem?

    Hi, I'm hoping someone can help me find a solution to my problem.
    When a backup is attempted, it starts off as if it's working, then stops and the following error message appears: "iTunes could not backup iPhone because the iPhone disconnected". But, the iPhone doesn't really disconnect! It must be some type of internal glitch.
    The iPhone is a 3GS and I have mostly pictures and contacts, two songs, a total of 33 apps. The iOS is updated (6.1.6). I do not know if this phone was ever jailbroke. I have been able to backup this phone before, but cannot now. The last backup was 9/21/13, it is now 3/2/14.
    Sorry if there is too much info, or not the correct info to find a solution!
    Also, I must say that although I am not a tekkie, I've seen many different types of various programs and I find that iTunes is not very intuitive...don't mean to hurt anyone's feelings, just my humble opinion.
    Thank You,

    Hey Lawrence,
    A big THANK YOU!! to you! Your suggestions worked!
    Before I changed USB ports (more on that in a sec...), I employed one of your suggestions that you gave to someone else with the same problem...and that was to clean the connector on the bottom of the phone with a soft dry tooth brush. I couldn't believe the amount of lint that came out! Especially what was found in either end...had to do some very careful picking. (Almost enough lint to knit a small sweater!!)
    Changing the USB port was the second and final step required for a successful backup. My computer is a laptop, and I did have a USB Bluetooth adapter (for another device) installed. I removed  the adapter, plugged the iPhone into that USB port, crossed my fingers...and it worked!!!
    Now if I can figure out the rest of this darn program, I might upgrade to a new iPhone!
    Again, thank you very much Lawrence!

  • HT204380 When using facetime how many people can you be connected to at one given time? The reason for this question is I would like to utilize facetime for conference call meetings.

    When using facetime, how many people can you be connectedto at once? The reason I ask this question is, I am wanting to conduct teleconference meetings with my staff who are spread out throughout the state and I would like to be able to have seven people in total connected to facetime at once.

    Currently only one person. A lot of users want to be able to FT multiple users.
    Send feedback to Apple requesting it. Maybe in a future iOS update or iPad it will be available.

  • I want to have two home pages when I open Firefox, where is the setting for this?

    In my computer class at school the instructor told us that you can set your browser to have two tabs open when you start the browser... I would like to be able to have my Facebook and my favorite blog to come up every time I open FireFox, but I cant find the setting myself... please help!!

    Hi b_dan_gidd,
    All you have to do is open both pages in different tabs and then choose ''Use Current Pages'' while you are setting your home page. It's actually really easy. Just take a look at the Knowledge base article [[How to set the home page]].
    Hopefully this helps!
