Scripts Resetting Themselves

Hi, just wondering if anybody else has seen this problem.
I have DVDSP project that is a demo reel for a client. It is basically 40 or so movie trailers grouped into 4 subcategories. The client wanted the DVD to behave like this;
Main Menu with a Play All button and buttons that lead to secondary menus for each of the 4 subcategories.
Each secondary menu has a Play All (for just the titles within that subcategory) or individual buttons for each title.
I set up scripts that allow play all (from the main menu), play all in a group or individual plays. Everything works like I would expect. My problem is when I close DVDSP and try to make revisions the next day all of my scripts stop working. Each command in the script still has the correct coding but the scripts themselves have just stopped working. I'm forced to open each script (there are about 40) and reconfigure each command in the scripts.
Is this just a bug? Anybody else seen this or better yet know a way around it?

hey switch
why not just loose the scripts all together and use stories?
from what i am reading, you have 40 trailers with 4 subcatagories, is that right?
so that means 10 trailers per subcatagory. and in your main menu you have a play all clips (all 40 trailers)?
seems like those 10 are already accounted for (as in they are in their own catagory and are NOT accesible anywhere else).
all you would do do is put ALL your trailers on one video stream (this one would play all the video clips from the main menu's "play all").
Then make 4 stories for that video stream (for all your 4 subcatagories "play all").
then from those 4 stories make an additional 10 stories(this is for playblack of the individual clips).
since you dont have a random play or you would want to play back the clip from another subcatagory, this will be the easiest and surefire way to make your project work.
hope this helps

I am no longer able to turn off cellular data usage for individual apps. When I turn most of them off, they just automatically reset themselves to allow data usage. Any thoughts?

I am definately having the same problem and cannot believe there are no answers or even support that this problem exists. I never have to post on forumns, I read what is usually readilly availiable for the craziest of problems.
Anyways, the problem is just that, I can toggle off a individual app's setting of cellular data availability, but it changes right back on rescreening. After restarting, resetting etc, it seems that the big Apple Apps are the biggest offenders. Music is a very important one, Podcasts can kill you very quickly, app store, Photos, Facetime, Stocks?!?!?!
When one searches for solutions I have to see hundreds of links to "How great is ios7, you can turn off cellular data for individual apps FOR DUMMIES!". I am a dedicated apple fool since the Apple IIe (long time), but when they run afowl it is usually really bad. Why offer an on/off switch if the setting is always on?
I am writing just to add support to the existence of this problem, not so much for people to offer ideas of solutions as I now believe it is in the coding.
Thank you

Applications reseting themselves to original settings :/

Hi, for some reason my applications seem to be reseting themselves to the original out the installer settings, for example azureus, one minuite it was fine set up in classic mode interface seeding several torrents and also d/l, then i relaunched it and it loaded the the normal vuse beta version and all my torrents had gone, same with itunes i got all the accept/decline licence ect.. and all my music had gone (music files still in the iTunes folder) then came firefox all my pimpin had gone and it was back to bog standard normal.. if i change it it might stay for a couple of reloads but then it just resets itself again... it hasnt affected any other app's that i know of yet. So if anybody can enlighten me of what the **** is going on that would be great!

Are you perhaps logged in as a different user?

Preferences resetting themselves?

Not sure if it is just my machine, but after I installed snow leopard (before update) I noticed that some of my system settings just "reset" themselves. Desktop picture changed, Spaces settings just disappeared, printer settings and trackpad settings have lost their settings. Anyone else experincing these kinds of weird things?

Yep, as I posted the other day. My preferences reset themselves. Don't know what it is. Didn't have that problem before installing Snow Leopard. Also, any preference pane I've added say that System Preferences has to restart in order for the preference to run. Saw somewhere this had to do with some 64 bit thing. Also, I have issues with QuickTime. Some movies won't start when I double click them, but will do fine when I open them from the Quicktime pulldown menu. AND printing is all messed up. Apple still has lots of issues with this OS version which need to get fixed ASAP. 10.6.1 was a start.

Volume keys reset themselves!!! pleaseeee helpppp

The volume keys on my keyboard (F9, F10, F12) seem to have reset themselves overnight... Yesterday the computer came in and I was playing with it and the volume keys worked fine and then this morning I woke up and those volume shortcut keys no longer worked. In System Preferences-keyboard and mouse-keyboard shortcuts, there is NO option for setting volume shortcuts!!!! How do I set them back??? Selecting restore defaults doesn't work either, it makes them all weird and even more of the shortcut keys don't do what their pictures do (like F4 which is supposed to be dashboard decided to do all windows or something like that, that one i was able to reset) if anyone knows how to fix this pleaseeeeee helppppp!! Thank you

Hi,
1st - are you using an Apple K/B?

UBR EEM script resetting the modem

Hello,
I'm trying to find a way to perform some action on cable modem basing on syslog event. Let's take an example: I'm getting the following message in the syslog:
%UBR10000-5-UNREGSIDTIMEOUT: CMTS deleted unregistered Cable Modem XXXX.YYYY.ZZZZ
Now, I'd like the script to reset this modem when such event occurs (maybe it makes no sense to reset deleted modem but it's only example)
And now I'm looking for the way, how to use the event syslog message in the script and how to extract the MAC address of the modem from this line.
Being specific - how to get $MAC variable, having in mind that there's no regexp command on UBR IOS?
event manager applet modem_reset
event syslog occurs 1 pattern "CMTS deleted unregistered Cable Modem" period 1
action 1 cli command "clear cable modem $MAC reset"

Audiobooks keep resetting themselves.

Hi.
I'm not sure I've got the model of iPod right (it has a colour screen and is now about 18 months old) but I doubt it'll make much, if any, difference.
Basically, I play a lot of audiobooks on my iPod and I've set it to remember the playback position so that I can stop halfway through and start again another time. However, when I go to restart playing the file, it resets the playback position and I end up going back to the main menu screen. Then I have to fast-forward through the whole file (some of which are over 10 hours long) to find the right place to resume listening. It's happened a couple of times in the past but, in the last few weeks, it's happened every single time I've tried to resume playback.
I rarely connect it to my computer, so there has been no interference there and I have also recently restored it to its factory settings due to a file corruption, so that shouldn't be a problem either.
Has anyone else had this problem and, if so, is there anything I can do?
Thanks in advance!

Is this something that worked for a particular audio book file before and it is now not working?
I believe +Remember position+ is a parameter set in iTunes for the audio file. When you do a +Get Info+ on the file in iTunes, this parameter is set in the Options tab. Audiobooks purchased from the iTunes Store have +Remember position+ and +Skip when shuffling+ set to YES. However, if the that audio files is from other source, it may not be set that way.

Notifications in yosemite keep resetting themselves

Having upgraded to Yosemite I changed some of the notifications only to find when I rebooted they changed back to the post upgrade status. So I reset them again when I rebooted they changed back to the post upgrade status and so on and so forth! Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong.
Thanks
Duncan

Here are the instructions I got from AppleCare from an Apple Engineer. I'm not sure if the fix was specifically for my machine or if it'll work for someone else. Follow at your own risk.
1. Open the Library folder in your Home folder.
2. In the Library folder, open the Application Support folder.
3. Locate the folder named NotificationCenter. Drag this folder to the desktop.
4. Next, open the Terminal application.
Copy and paste each line of these commands into the Terminal window, in order. Press return after each line:
cd `getconf DARWIN_USER_DIR`
rm -rf com.apple.notificationcenter
killall usernoted; killall NotificationCenter
5. Close the Terminal app.
6. Restart your computer.
The notification preference changes won't stick until you restart a 2nd time after this.

Audio output settings reset themselves on restart to internal speakers. I am getting tired of changing the output every time I turn on the Mac. This is a recent problem.

My sound preference does not retain its output setting on restart. It resets to internal speakers. I'm getting irritated having to change it every time I turn on the Mac. I'm running the latest system software (10.10.2) on an early 2008 Mac Pro with 4 cores and 6 GB of RAM. This was not a problem before Yosemite, and everything else seems to be running fine. Any help appreciated.

Help, spatial, reverb, chorus features reset themselves at star

I have an Ensoiq audio PCI (model CT480) soundcard, everytime the computer boots, the spatial, reverb, and chorus checkboxes are checked even though i unchecked them, this only happens when the computer starts, I have reformatted and installed windows 98 SE 2 times, i have removed and installed the VxD drivers (file version 4.2.0.206 as it says in the "driver file" details on System Properties), and i've tried removing Legacy and Joystick support (i have Allow LPT Interrupt Sharing checkbox checked) but it still resets itself, my soundcard is in IRQ 0 only the soundcard (Legacy or Joystick are not enabled) is enabled, i have the BIOS setting of PNP OS to YES and I really don't know what else to do, any help would be extremely appreciated, thanks in advance

Thanks for the additional information.
I guess your scale probably relates to your photo on a paper.
The way that you try to calculate the resolution for item (5), seems more to identify the map resolution on screen (96 dpi seems related to screen), and not to identify the resolution of your digital image. And also, I think it doesn't seem correct, as some other conversions between cm and inches and also degrees (unit of your data) may be needed. This may be a little bit more tricky, and I think you don't need this. Actually what you want is to compute the resolution of the original digital image.
As you have the MBR of you planar image and the size of the image, I would calculate the resolution using those values.
a) Your MBR is: -27,-40,27,40
b) Your image size is 504x596
c) the resolutions would be:
resx = 54/504 = 0.10714
resy = 80/596 = 0.13428
d) using the import image option in MapBuilder you can enter:
Top left x = -27
Top left Y = 40
resx = 0.10714
resy = 0.13428
About the SRID, the information is on mdsys.cs_srs (next version of MapBuilder will show the list values). As you may not know the correct SRID, use the default 8307.
The center point in MapViewer's map request will be the center of your map on screen. The size defines the map height.

Do the options/preferences ever reset themselves, like after an upgrade?

Is there a way to tell when certain options have been changed? Firefox was set to delete history when it closes, but before yesterday this was not set, as far as I can remember. I did notice that Firefox said it was not the default browser last night, but I was pretty sure it was set as default. Any info on how these changes could possibly be tracked would be appreciated. On a similar note, is there any way to recover deleted history?

Revo Uninstaller is just that. A simple program(s) uninstaller. When I couldn't get rid of the Incredimail search bar, I used Revo and completely uninstalled version 15 Firefox. Before doing so I exported my bookmarks, etc to another browser.
I reinstalled Firefox, put my add-on's back, just as if it were my first time using Firefox. I had a list of add-on's and extensions and plug-ins showing up on Firefox as was normal. I logged into Last Pass and when I went to set the options, the entire form on the add-on's page was blank. The drop down menu for Last Pass had some weird icons...icon of man and woman, some kind of emoticons...not sure what they were because they weren't marked and they would not do anything once clicked.
After having to copy and paste from Last Pass Vault just to get on my various sites, I reset Firefox. Same problems. I then went to my C:/program files and removed the Mozilla Firefox folder as specified by Mozilla. I then upgraded to 16. Now I don't have any add-on's, just the search for add-ons page. When I tried to add my Last Pass, Clear Preview..etc...they installed but would not show up anywhere on Firefox. I then did another clean uninstall with Revo. I did a clean install for 16 Firefox. Same thing. None of the add-ons I put back show up. I have Windows Professional Edition XP Service Pack 3 and all updates are current. I have Zone Alarm Professional Security Firewall and anti-virus, System Mechanic, Spybot Search and Destroy. I have no idea what is causing my problems. I do use Chrome for some web surfing and I do have many of the same extensions on Chrome that I use(d) on Firefox. Would that interfere? Thanks for the prompt reply!

Help! Cr2 Files have inexplicably reset themselves to their import state!

I am having a disastrous day at the office! I have discovered that 3 of my weddings shot this year, edited in Lightroom3 and since transferred to LR4, have lost all their develop history. All the xmp files are now dated with the date of the shoot and I am back to square one.
It is quite a bizarre situation. Here are a few points that don't add up.
1. At some point before exporting i renumbered each project. Now, a couple of images that were obviously stacked with Tiff edits in the data base were not renamed. THESE FILES HAVE NOT LOST THEIR DEVELOPEMENT HISTORY!! I have the data for these files and the XMP files show the true date of the last edit. It's quite bizarre and unbelievably frustrating.
2. One particular wedding was shot with a second shooter who happened to shoot NEF files on his Nikon. Again, these files are intact and safely have their edit information.
3. With two of the weddings even the database entries were in correct, with the libraries showing the original file names and not the new renamed files
I wonder if any one else has come across this problem on their travels? As I say, I have recently upgraded to lightroom 4.3 and was about to further upgrade to 5 when I discovered this issue. For now that plan is on hold!
If anyone can advise on how to deal with this problem, perhaps whether the original develop data may be retrieved I would be mot grateful indeed , itherwise there's a lot of rework to be done!!
Many thanks.
Phill
P.S for your information I'm running on PC, Windows 7 64bit, Intel I7, 10gb Ram. LR4.3 and 3.6 and CS6

Have you finished editing your wedding photos from these three events and are now going back months later and noticing a problem, or are you still in the process of doing the final edits on them?
Are you saying that none of your catalog backups with the renumbered files have the edit history in them? When is the earliest backup that comes after when you renamed the files, and do you have any backups between the time you imported and when you renamed the files?
So your situation is that all the files have been renamed but none (that have the problem) have any edits associated with them, even the edits from before you renamed them? In other words do the files appear to be frozen in time from just after you renamed them or even the initial edits are gone, as if they had been reimported into LR, anew? Do you somehow have two copies of each file, one the old name and one the new name?
I don’t think a catalog backup aborting would cause your current catalog to be corrupted, only the backup copy would be incomplete and perhaps LR deletes it if the backups stop early.
How imprecise and foggy are your memories about what you did with the files from these weddings? It would seem to take more than one glitch at a moment in time to have the situation you have, now, but if you’re not all that sure what has happened in the past, then maybe you did a bunch of things in a row that effectively caused the issue or masked your seeing the issue for such a long time.

Every time I press play or reset back to the start of my track the levels in the mix reset themselves to default levels

Ive just purchase logic and immediately loaded a midi file from an iPad app called MusicStudio. All fine except when I try to set a balance between the tracks in the mixer or using the inspector all the levels return to there original positions when I return to the start of the track. Im I missing something simple? help

Region (or MIDI) automation. Open the event list, find CC#7 events - probably be one at the top of the list - and delete.

Error when running script to reset size - bad argument gettokenmanager

Hello,
I use RoboHelp HTML 8 (currently on 8.0.2.208) and have a project with a number of user interface images that are going to be translated. The translated images will likely be of different size, so I need to have a fast way of reseting all the image sizes in my project.
I discovered Chasnikov's script "reset all images" on the thread:
http://forums.adobe.com/message/2128583#2128583
which seems just perfect for my situation.
Not wanting to test this on my real project, I made a copy in a different location and tested out the script. The script ran for a while, but then abruptly ended with the following message:
Bad argument getTokenManager
In looking at the output window it seemed like it stopped in the middle of a topic after going through a number of topics. For my test situation, I only replaced a few graphics in a few topics and when I checked this limited sample, they all seemed to be correctly resized.
However, my concern is that if I use this script in my real project, it won't actually resize all of the images.
Any ideas why the script is terminating abruptly?
By the way, I did find a similar question about this error message in the thread http://forums.adobe.com/message/2551147
however, the solution to add the line msg(filepath); to the script resulted in another error -- RH did not recognize 'msg' as a valid command.
Thanks, Rose

Thanks Willam for the advice. In the meantime I realized that there was something wrong with my project--because the word count script also gave me the same error message -- so I ran it on another version of the project and it was just fine.
There are two questions that your response brings to mind:
1. How are you able to see the line numbers in the script? When I edit the script, it opens in Notepad and I can't turn on line numbers. I have discovered, that if I have word wrap off, I can use Goto and specifiy a line number to go to. Are you using a different text editor?
2. The reset size script doesn't announce that it is finished. It just seems to stop displaying things in the output window, but it doesn't give me a message to say it has finished. Can you recommend some code I could add to the reset size script to output that it has finished processing sucessfully?
Thanks in advance.

Double-click speed resetting after reboot

Hi,
Every time I start my MacBook the mouse and trackpad double-click speeds resets themselves to very slow.
I've installed all the software updates, and tried repairing permissions from single user mode, but nothing seems to change.
It's tough to live with because I'm a very fast clicker (drink lots of coffee) and prefer the double-click speed to be set to maximum.
I'm using Leopard (10.5.5) on a brand new 15" MacBook Pro.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
(I'd even settle for a startup script that sets the speed on boot.)
Thanks!

I have been having this exact same issue for several months now. I followed the instruction re: deleting the .plist files, but the problem persists... however... today I discovered something new, and perhaps it might help with the troubleshooting.
I started my machine today and opened my System Preferences to reset my double-click speeds (before my system finished it's start-up routine), but to my joyful surprise they were already set where I like them (2nd fastest setting). I started working in different programs (Mail, Firefox 3.0.3, and Adium 1.3.2) and noticed that my double-click speed had slowed down. I re-opened System Preferences and indeed... both double-click speeds had been reset to zero.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
