Running of PSE8 Organiser

Hi everyone,
I have PSE8 and when I click on Organiser it thinks for a while and then nothing.
I have tried deactivating and reloading with no luck. I have tried accessing via Edit also with no luck.
There have been a number of proposed solutions on the forums whcih I have also tried.
Any suggestions?

Hold down your Ctrl+Shift keys when clicking on the icon to start the Organizer, and keep the keys held down until the Catalog Manager window opens. Then create a new catalog, giving it a completely different name, like
NewCatalog
Let us know if you can then launch the Organizer.

PSE8 - organiser unusable

The PSE8 Organiser seems to be effectively unusable ... unless everything marked "automatic" in the preferences is turned off. If these things are not all turned off, then the organiser runs the CPU at full throttle causing other applications (including the PSE8 editor) to run sluggish, at best. No, it is not the auto analyser ... I had this turned off and it still used 100% CPU. Absolutely everything marked "automatic" has to be turned off.
At the very least, the organiser needs the ability to prioritise these automatic functions so that they can be run backgrounded using minimal CPU.
What with that, and the non-configurable versioning system (my main editor is non destructive and doesn't need versioning) it looks like back to FastStone Image Viewer for organising, and simply use PSE8 for the editor. Unless anyone knows of a fix for these problems?

The two Organizer options that will hog your computer are Edit > Preferences > Auto-Analyzer Options > Analyze All Media In Catalog Automatically and Recognize People Automatically. The other options that contain the word "Automatically" don't hog your computer (e.g. Automatically Fix Red Eye).
Note that Auto-Analyzer is dangerous for other reasons: It will corrupt your map locations, split your video clips into "scene groups" that are hard to get rid of, modify the date/time of every file, crash frequently, and litter your folders with temporary files:

PSE8 Organiser Folder View?

In PSE8 Organiser I can usually scroll down through all my folders when using Folder View. PSE9 only displays one folder at a time.
Today I opened PSE8 Organiser and it's behaving just like PSE9, only letting me see one folder at a time. Yesterday it was fine.
Has anyone any idea what might have caused this? I really need to scroll continuously through folders, which is why I am still using the PSE8 Organiser.

Folder Location view in PSE 6, 7, and 8 is buggy and often shows the wrong contents of folders:

Deleting and reimporting the "missing" photos won't help. Adobe doesn't care enough about this bug to fix it.

Query slows down after second run for Index Organised Tables

We are trying to optimise our application which supports MSSQL to run with Oracle 9i for one of our customers.
We have created one database with normal tables and PK constraints/indexes and turned caching on for the tables, this seems to work well but no way as fast as MSSQL on similar hardware. The first run of query was slower but as the caching became more effective the query times came down.
So we investigated turning the tables into Index Organised Tables. We ran analyze on the new indexed tables and the response time of one of our more complex queries became akin to MSSQL. We ran the same query 5 seconds later and it took about 3 times longer to return the same data. Subsequent runs produced the same result.
We have run the same query on both styles of tables and also run showplans on the two queries, the regular table returns a cost of 190 and the IOT 340. This would point to the fact that we should use the regular tables for our queries but why did the IOT set return much faster for the first run after the analyze then slow down as if the stats were missing, but the execution plan remain the same.
Any help would be appreiciated.
Darren Fitzgibbon

could be a lot of reasons:
1. Is Oracle the only process that runs on this server? Could it be any other process (i.e. MSSQL) that took the the resources during the secodn run?
2. Is this the only query that was running during your tests? Could there be another query that put the load on the database when you were running the second test?
3. The autotrace statistics and explain plan would be useful for first and second run
(how to use autotrace:
http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/B10501_01/server.920/a96533/autotrac.htm#1018
4. If you run the same process again several times - how does the response time change?

I am unable to open my Organiser in PSE8.

Please help,
I cannot get my PSE8 Organiser to open at all. I get an error saying that the organiser has unexpectedly quit. The editor will open as normal but I cant access the Organiser via the Editor either.
The only two things that occured prior to this issue was 1. An upload of 20 pics to my smugmug account was interrupted, when I lost my internet connection and 2. Just prior to the problem I shut the laptop down and it installed 14 new Windows updates, however, I did a system restore to a point prior to these updates to see if they were conflicting with Elements but this made no difference.
I havent yet tried uninstalling and reinstalling but this is an option.
Can anybody help me get my Organiser working again as I have 10,000 pictures I cannot view at present.

Printing from PSE8 Editor

Can anyone help me with a problem I have printing from PSE 8 Editor.
I keep my unedited photos in PSE8 Organiser. When I am trying to select the best photos from a group of, say, ten photos for printing I open all ten in PSE8 Editor. I now edit each photo in the Editor and examine them to see which are the best ones and I will wish to do a trial print of each of those. This is where I hit the problem.
If I select one of the ten photos open in Editor and try to print it I will get a strip down the left side of the Editor screen showing all ten photos. If I want to print just the selected one of the ten I have to remove the other nine from this list or all ten will be printed. If the photos are all very similar it is difficult to select visually which ones to remove from the list because the list does not show their names.
What I would like is to:
a) eliminate this list feature altogether so that only the photo I have as the selected image in Editor is printed, or
b) have the list show only those photos I have explicitly selected for printing from the ten I have open in the Editor, or
c) have the list show the file names so that I can at least identify the ones I don't want to print in this instance so that I can remove them from the list.
I explained all this previously to Adobe but I don't seem to be understood. To illustrate the issue please try this. Open ten similar photos in Editor. Select one of those ten and select print. You will get a strip showing all ten down the left of your screen. If you just continue with the printing all ten will be printed. To print just the one you want you will have to identify and remove the other nine photos from the list. Having done all that and printed that one photo now select another of the ten photos in Editor and again select print. You will again get a list of all ten photos open in the Editor and you will again have to identify and remove from the list the other nine. Repeat this for a few more photos and you will be (like me) screaming with fury at the stupid thing. So, am I doing something stupid or is there a way to get around this behaviour?

I have PEv.8, and below the work space in Editor, there is the project bin. On the left there is the tool box, configurable as one column or two columns.
Multiple open files are represented in the project bin as thumbnails. There are 2 dropdown boxes: (1) to show open files or files from organizer (2) re bin files. Which options are ticked on your machine?
Please post a print screen representing what you see.

Convert Photoshop Album to PSE8

I have been using Photoshop Album Starter Edition 3.2 to organise my photos and recently bought PSE8. To transfer all my photos into PSE8 Organiser I think I should use the Convert option. (File > Catalog > Convert)
When I do and select Album as the place to convert from it displays the message: "The conversion operation failed. Try repairing the catalog with the software that created it and retry conversion". Album doesn't have a repair option, only a "Reconnect Missing Files", which says "No files to reconnect".
Can anyone tell me how to get my photos (2k+) into my PSE8 catalog with associated tags etc? I am in UK and have a very slow broadband service so I dont think sharing using Photoshop.com is possible / viable.
Any / all suggestions gratefully received.

Running Form on Web-Little Snags?

Hi all
I have a tabular form that is now running in the organisation's internal web server. 2 issues have cropped up, namely:
A main heading has moved itself down on top of a field heading so you see 2 headings all mixed up.
The date picker buttons are all white.
What is kina confusing is this is up for testing and I had run it on the web [from forms] before and it never done this.
Nothing major but my Q is why does it do this on web-and not on forms- and what causes it; if anyone could enlighten me? Still training so please don't flame me.
Andrew

Toni,
try the following
from the orant/bin directory type the following
ifweb60 <modulename> <userid>
make sure that the Forms module to start is in the Forms60_Path and can be found.
If all works well then this should start teh Appletviewer showing the Forms you request
to run.
Hope that I am not misunderstanding you and you are looking for starting Forms from the Forms developer by clicking on the preview button in the toolbar. If you are looking for Web deploying Forms applications, requesting it from a Browser, then the configuration is different.

PSE8 - images won't rotate in Organizer

I can't get jpg images to rotate landscape/portrait in PSE8 organiser. If I open them in the editor - rotation works properly. I never had this problem in my pervious version PSE5. I am working on Windows XP. Any hints why this is happening?
Thanks!

No, i never got any error messages - the images just refused to rotate in organiser. When clicking on the "rotate right" link - the dialog box appeared to show progress, but when 100% completion was reached, the image was still not rotated.. This only happened in Organiser - the Editor rotation went fine.
Loggin on as Admin didn't change anything. I uninstalled the program, and then re-installed it from the downloaded file. now the rotation works.
thanks for your help!

ITunes Match has deleted my music files. How and Why?

I have used iTunes Match since January 2012 however I have noticed that fewer and fewer of my songs are available on my linked devices (iPhone, iPad). When I go to the iTunes Media Library folder to see the original files, many are missing. Typically there are only 1 or 2 song files in an album folder and the rest are just not there.
On an IOS device the songs still appear in the playlists but if selected it will just jump down the list until it finds a song that it decides it can play.
My iTunes library folder was transferred on to a 2GB network attached Lacie drive as it was too big to put on my MBP Retina in July 2012. Currently I use a 2009 iMac for the main iTunes however it is still pointing to the iTunes folder on the Lacie. MBP and iMac are authorised with iTunes store and Home Sharing is on. MBP is set to use Home Sharing, so is not syncing with Match. Apple TV 2 can also access Match and Home Sharing.
To fix this I am now working my way through a backup from June 2012 and manually checking and synching my 1200 top level iTunes folders. Honestly most album folders have only 1 or 2 tracks so I am copying back all the missing tracks one folder at a time. (iTunes has 14000 songs). I cannot merely replace the corrupt new library with the old library backup as the last 12 mths of acquisitions would disappear.
Further there are tracks that have been renamed and filed incorrectly. I have tracks labelled as Bowie or Daft Punk, in Bowie or Daft Punk playlists that are actually from an album of recordings of bird and animal sounds from sub tropical tropical rainforests. Now that kills the party when Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger crossfades into the sound of the mating call of the green tree frog let me tell you.
I have rematched my library several times over the last 12 months. When moving to the Lacie and MBP, then again when moving to the iMac for iTunes but leaving the files on the Lacie.
It's a big mess that will take me about 12-15 hours of filing to (mostly) fix. I'm up to "J".
Why and how did my original files disappear off my Lacie drive? This software/service should not have those rights.
I am a Mac fan and a college IT Teacher so run a well organised home network and am just at a loss.
Please advise.
MBP Retina 256GB 16GB 10.8.4, iMac 21" 2009 500GB 4GB 10.8.4, iPhone 4s 32GB 6.1.3, iPad2 32GB 6.1.3

iTunes Match does not have the ability to remove local files.
The service operates by comparing the selected iTunes Library with the iTunes Store content and 'matching' or 'uploading' - it is very straightforward a 'match' provides equivalent access to iTunes Store content as a recognised 'purchase'; upload simply copies a 256k AAC variant into the cloud. There are no elements of this activity that can erase the local library content.
Would suggest you explore possible alternative causes of file loss. Given the pattern described of selective deletion, leaving many Songs intact - would suggest making at least 2 secure offline Song file backups and starting the library again from a fresh install of iTunes once a thorough sweep of the system has been completed for virus. It is also worth assessing the physical security of the system - who has access & with what privileges.
To access Songs from the cloud, you would have to manually delete the Song from the library or open an empty library - so even when accessing content, iTunes Match provides no local deletion capability.

Credit check issue in third party order

Dear all,
We are facing some issues related to credit management data for one of our customer. I need your valuable inputs for below mentioned queries-
1. As a genaral question- When we releases a SO through VKM* How the system calculated the " Released Credit Value of the document".
2- For one of the customers, the FD33 shows a Sales value X USD. As i see the split of this sales value , this X USD amounts to OPEN DELIVERIES. Both Open So and Open billing are zero. We tried to check with no. of tcodes to find out the open values but no such Open delv document is appeared.
In VC/2, it only shows Open SO, no open deliveries are there.
So i tried with simulation program RVKRED88, and found 5 third party Sales documents , against which some value is coming under the Open delivery value and it sums up to the value as coming in FD33.
I have a few questions on this-
> All the SO in output are Third party SO, against which PO has been created, ( Third party So> PR> PO> MIRO--> billing) and all are in status OPEN, so how come they are showing value in OPEN DELIVERY ?
--> The value appearing against these third party SO is Not equal to items value/net value, it is a complete different value than appearing in SO. But in SO changes history , the same value is coming AS RELEASED CREDIT VALUE. How is it being calculated?
For eg- for one of the Third party SO , the value coming in RVKRED88 is 29573.53 USD,
                                                            net value in So= 24,120.00 USD, Qty = 6000 PC , Credit price= 4.02 USD
                                                            Credit value of So in VBAk= 29573.53 USD
                                                           SO created , released on 08.July.2011, confirmed schedule line =08.Oct.2011
Credit settings- Static check + Credit active Item cat and SO , Open So and open delv are ticked in credit settings.
Kindly help in the analysis.
many thanks in advance for the inputs.

Hi Dharmendra,
1. When we release a sales order using VKM* transaction S066 information structure and OEIKW field is updated which increases open order value.
2. If there is mismatch in the values of credit related fields run RVKRED77 (Re-organisation of credit in case of update errors) this will update all the credit data for a Payer customer in real time. RVKRED88 is simulation mode.
3. Updating of values related to credit is controlled by the update group assigned to credit control area. If system is not able to update using the assigned update group it will automatically try updating using the next update group. Below is the text of SAP Help.
If a document cannot be processed with the update group you specify, the system determines the next possible update it can carry out. For example, you select Update group 000012 which, at delivery, reduces the open order value and increases the open delivery value. Assume that one item in the order is not relevant for delivery. In this case, the system automatically determines Update group 000018 for this item. Update group 000018 increases the open delivery value for the order item. The system uses the confirmed quantity of delivery-relevant schedule lines to update the order value
As you know in OVA8 transaction credit control area, Risk category, credit group and currency are assigned to update group.

Provisioning a user in MSAD from OIM

Word crashes mid PDF creation - Word 2003 Acrobat 9.3.0

I have a new PC and a fresh clean install of CS5 Design Permuim, including Arobat 9. The organisation is still using Office 2003 and no upgrade path in sight for that. Myself and several colleagues with the same software profile are now experiencing frequent problems with Word crashing mid PDF creation.
This has always been an issue with the ocassional Word file in Acrobat 8, but Distiller always worked as an alternative - NOT this time!
PDF Maker gives no error message, just that Word has encounted a problem and needs to close.
Distiller produces the following log message, then freezes completely. I then have to force quit Word to exit!
%%[ ProductName: Distiller ]%%
%%[ Error: syntaxerror; OffendingCommand: --nostringval-- ]%%
Stack:
/mF_OTF_V
%%[ Flushing: rest of job (to end-of-file) will be ignored ]%%
%%[ Warning: PostScript error. No PDF file produced. ] %%
Not all documents are affected, but I can remove almost all of the content from the affected document and it still causes the error.
I have tried repairing Acrobat - no change.
One other odd symptom - after each crash, the default printer on the machine has changed to Adobe PDF.
I can successfulkly make the PDF on another machine which has not been upgraded to Acrobat 9. The rest of the settings are identical on the two machines, they are both running a standard organisation environment, with the same verion of word etc.
Can anyone suggest how to fix or at least isolate the cause of the problem?

Please update to latest Acrobat 9 release which is 9.4.2.
Also do let us know
a) office 2003 flavour: Standard or professional?
b) OS flavour? Also whether it is 32bit or 64bit?
Also as you mentioned that "Not all documents are affected", so we would require any of your affected file to analyze the issue. Can you please share the file? You can use acrobat.com to share the file.
Thanks,
Vishal

Air native extensions, includes plist?

I am currently building an ANE for using the External Accessory framework from AIR in order to access and external Bluetooth device. I wrote an xcode library and compiled the ANE which in a sense works quite ok, all logic etc of my classes and methods seem to work. But the only problem is that it somehow does not seem to include my info.plist file which contains the crucial Supported External Accessories property. I figured that out by including the ane in my AIR file and running the xcode organiser to monitor the warning and errors. The error I got was rather clear:
     ERROR - opening session failed as protocol [I deleted the protocol name for my organisation's sake] is not declared in Info.plist
My question is whether it is possible and if so how, to include the plist into my ANE. I now edited the plist file manually (it also does not show in the xcode project) so it might very well be that the problem is in that. But it would be nice for me to know what it is I am doing wrong and what I could try to change it!
Any help is appreciated!
-- My issue on stackoverflow --
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/20194109/including-info-plist-ios-when-exporting-to-air -native-extensions

I think you would need to do this in the Air app not within the extension. In the app xml file add this:
<iPhone>
    <InfoAdditions>
        <![CDATA[
            <key>UISupportedExternalAccessoryProtocols</key>
            <array>
                <string> ... </string>
            </array>
    ]]>
    </InfoAdditions>
    <requestedDisplayResolution>standard</requestedDisplayResolution>
</iPhone>
Fill in the array section.
