Something happened to sidecar

May have missed this with the recent updates but has anything about the sidecar file changed. Trying to import (multiple import) my sidecar as I usually do bu getting an invalid error #1085? It's the same xml file we've used for the past year? Nothing unexpected in the code either?

Oxygen works pretty well, but if you're not doing anything else with XML/XSL, it's a bit excessive. You can just google "XML Validator" and get a host of results. I'd recommend making some screwy XML (deleting some closing tags as an example), and running it through a few validators to see which one you like the best.
Ex.
http://validator.aborla.net/
http://www.xmlvalidation.com/
http://www.validome.org/xml/
Alternately, you can prevent this problem altogether in most cases by using a Sidecar generator tool, such as Johannes' Sidecar Generator:

I am using the big date calendar template and when I submit it to apple for printing I lose the name of two months. These names are not text boxes. I see the names when I send it in but something happens during the transmission to apple. It was suggested

I am using the big date calendar template in iPhoto. I am on Lion 10.7.2, macbook air. The names of the months are on each calendar page but something happens when I send the data to Apple. The names are part of the template. They are not text boxes. I lose two names on the calendar after it is sent to Apple. Apple suggested I make a pdf file of my calendar before sending it in and check to make sure every name shows. I did this with a calendar I just sent in. The calendar was correct. All names of the months were showing. After sending the data two month names disappeard because when it arrived by mail, it was incorrect. Apple looked at my calendar via a pdf file and it was incorrect. This is second time this has happened. I called Apple and they had me delete several folders in the Library folder, some preferences and do a complete reinstall of iPhoto. I have not yet remade the defective calendar. I am wondering if anyone else has had this problem?

Control-click on the background of the view all pages window and select "Preview Calendar" from the contextual menu.
You can also save the pdf as a file to compare to the printed calendar. If the two names are visible in the pdf file then the printed copy should show them. Contact Apple for a refund. Apple Print Products - Apple Store (U.S.)

Windows 8.1 something happened and windows 8.1 Pro couldn't be installed.

After the release of windows 8.1 preview I attempted the installation of 8.1 preview which failed. I decided it wasn't worth the bother until it was officially released so I left it uninstalled.
After the official release of 8.1 yesterday I opened the store on my windows 8 PC and I was presented with the Windows 8.1 download. I selected this and attempted to install. this failed with the message "Something happened and Windows 8.1 Preview
failed to install" Whoops!
I clearly hadn't done my windows updates to update the store so I ran these updates and in my windows store was the Official windows 8.1 download.
Once downloaded it then fails saying "Something happened and windows 8.1 Pro couldn't be installed Please try again Error Code 0x80070003"
now im stuck with that. is there a way I can clear the downloaded files and have the store re-download them? where are the stores downloads kept?
im really stuck with this one....

Hi,
This error code means that the specified path couldn't be found.
To fix this issue, I suggest we try following steps and try to reinstall again:
Step 1: Clean update temp files:
1. Press Windows key + R, type service.msc and press enter.
2. Stop Windows update service.
3. Run following command lines one by one to clear update temp files:
cd %windir%
ren SoftwareDistribution SDTemp
exit
4. Restart Windows update service.
Step 2: Clear windows store catch:
Press the Windows + R keys on your keyboard to open the Run dialog.
Type WSReset.exe, and click/tap on OK.
The Store will now open, and state the following: The cache for the store was cleared. You can now browse the store for apps
Then, please try to update Windows 8.1 again.

HT1848 How do I transfer music from my computer to my iPhone? When I sync the two, nothing is transfered. I'm not sure what is actually being synced! I'd also like to save all the phone nbrs on my iPhone to my computer in case something happens to the p

I have an iPhone 4. I would like to transfer music from my HP computer to the phone. The music appears on my iTunes page on the computer but I cannot figure out how to transfer it to the phone. I'd also like to transfer the phone numbers on my phone to my computer (so I can keep them on my backup drive in case something happens to the phone). When I connect the computer and the phone, it says it's 'syncing' but I certainly can't figure out what's being 'synced'. The only thing I've ever been able to transfer at all are photos from the phone to the computer. If I must upgrade my phone system to 6.1 to do thi, I am reluctant to try that because it says I must save things or they will be lost (e.g. music I've purchased, phone directory, etc) - which I have no clue how to do. My nearest Apple store can only be reached by plane (in Honolulu). Thanks for any help.

Something happened, now I can't select clips in the timeline of my current project(in Elements 4)

I've been working on a project for a few days now, everything's been fine. Last night while editing, something happened when I was trying to add a transition between two clips. Now I can't select or edit any clips in the timeline anymore, and can't add new ones. When I click on the clips in the timeline, nothing happens. When I try to drag the select box around several of them, same thing. It acts like there's nothing to select. Same thing with right clicks, soundtrack mp3s, etc. The clips ARE still THERE though, and they all play fine in the preview screen in real time, and when I drag the slider back and forth along them.
All the clips are already rendered except the one transition I was adding when this started. When I hit 'Enter' to render, though, it says "Rendering 1 of 6 Audio Previews" instead of the usual x-number of video previews. I've not seen that before so it probably has something to do with all this.
It's ONLY with this one project. I can still edit and select clips in all my other projects as before.
I've already tried loading other projects and then coming back to this one, as well as closing the program and re-opening it. My current project is still stuck like this but the others are fine.
Please keep all this info in mind. This can't have anything to do with codecs or the clips being in the wrong format for the program. They're all regular AVI files and MP3s, I've been selecting and editing every single clip on this timeline dozens of times over the past few days with no problems. I'm just suddenly not able to select or edit them anymore or add anything new to the timeline, but they still play normally as previews.
I'm really hoping this is a simple thing where I've just tripped some setting and accidentally saved it that way and it can be easily changed back.

OK, then all that I suggested here:
Now, Exit from PrE, and Shutdown the computer completely. Wait a few moments, and then do a cold boot, launching PrE and Opening that Save_As Project. Do you now have the ability to edit the Clips on the Timeline?
If not, go to the location where you Copied the AutoSave folder, and view the files with Detail View ON. Then, look at the Date/Time of the files (probably will be 5 of them). Choose the last one written, Open that, and test. If no change, work backwards to the oldest.
If nothing is working, the only thing that comes to my mind would be an issue with the display driver, BUT that should affect all Projects, and not just this one. However, updating the video driver is always a good step, and should not hurt anything.
Note: many MP3's can cause all sorts of problems. I recommend always converting them to PCM/WAV @ 48KHz 16-bit, and replacing MP3's with those WAV files. One can use the great, free audio-editor, Audacity, to convert the MP3's.
If all of the above tests fail, let us know, and if you get any error, or warning messages, copy those down completely, and post those
all failed too?
If so, there is nothing that I can suggest. It seems that your Project is hosed, and is very likely not recoverable.
Sorry,
Hunt

Something happened and your installation of Windows 8.1 couldn't be completed

I have a brand new Acer with Win 8 installed. I've removed McAfee. Other than that the machine is as delivered.
Trying to download 8.1 and install it from the store. It sits there for a couple of minutes then says:
Your Windows 8.1 installation couldn't be completed
Something happened and the installation of Windows 8.1 can't be completed.
Now apart from this being really annoying could anyone have come up with a less useful message?
I have tried it several times. I've run the compatibility util and it passes. I've tried the store without logging in, then tried the store with logging in.
I've tried it in Firefox, tried it in IE.
Same result every time.

OK, so I posted 2 days ago about this issue, and I resolved it yesterday. I essentially performed a "refresh" under Windows 8, which removed a lot of the updates and applications that could be potential issues.
I then had to go to the Sony website to re-install the latest drivers, SW and driver patches related to my Vaio Duo (I had already updated the firmware and Bios -- necessary to install Windows 8.1--). I then had to re-install all Windows 8 updates,
and magically, the Windows 8.1 update started to download when I clicked on it in the Windows Marketplace. I do not know what was the source of the problem, but the refresh definitely got rid of it. It is a long process however as a lot has to
be reinstalled to bring the refreshed system to its full functionality with the latest manufacturer and Microsoft updates for Windows 8.
I can't see how a non-technical user could perform all these steps to upgrade a recent tablet to Windows 8.1!
Good luck!

*** ACTUAL FIX! *** How to solve the Windows 8 "Sorry, something happened and we couldn't finish creating the ISO. Restart setup and try again" problem

Author's note: because I'm not yet allowed to post links in the forums, please note that all links have
dot for the actual . in links, and any "http://" is spaced out so things don't appear as links. Common sense, folks.
I found the answer here: http:// wwwdoteightforumsdotcom/tutorials/13200-windows-8-upgrade-iso-redownload.html,
but here's the brief summary:
-I'm guessing that at some point, you probably downloaded the Windows 8 preview, yes? For whatever reason, when you go to do it "for real," the Windows 8 setup doesn't overwrite the old file, called the "WebSetup"
folder. If that folder is still there, you'll get the "Sorry, something happened and we couldn't finish creating the ISO. Restart setup and try again" message.
The location of the folder is at: C:\%UserProfile%\AppData\Local\Microsoft\WebSetup
where %UserProfile% is the user account you downloaded it under (probably your default account) - this is the folder you need to delete.
Once that folder is deleted, run the Windows 8 setup file (found here: http:// windowsdotmicrosoftdotcom/en-US/windows-8/upgrade-product-key-only if
you haven't, like me, already downloaded it 8 different times thinking it was a corrupted file), and it should prompt you at that point for your product key - which is something it wasn't doing for me. After that, you can choose to make it an ISO, run
it normally, run it from USB, etc.
It'd be helpful if Microsoft knew about this... hope it helps...

Purchase a couple of these when they go on sale.
Start burning all the photos onto DVDs.
At least you'll have all your photos if your computer, time machine or any other backup you use goes bonkers.

How do I make something happen only once on a true condition in a loop

So I have a way of doing this, but it uses a dreaded local variable, and seems to me that it might be unreliable.
What I want to happen is to have something happen only once on a condition that will remain true. What I need is to set something after a given amount of time, but I only want to set it once after that time has been reached. Problem is, if I use a range, it could be true more than once, if I use a greater than, it'll be true every time after the set time, and if I use an equal, there's no way to know that the particular millisecond value will even appear in the loop.
Maybe I'm wrong in even using those comparison functions... Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. See the attached vi for a better look at what I'm trying to do... (v7.0)
Thanks,
Geoff

Question.vi ‏16 KB

The "Idle" state that the help file refers to is the "non-running"
state. The Top Level VI must end execution before any "First Time" VIs will
return TRUE after being called initially.
Therefore, if your application calls a subVI at the beginning of the
Test portion, on the next iteration of the loop it will return FALSE
from that subVI, since your main VI never stopped running, and received
a TRUE from the "First Time" on the initial test loop.
If you have code that you want to execute only on the first run of your
entire program, "First Time" should work fine. If you have code that
you only want to execute on the first iteration of just the Test loop,
the "First Time" VI is not ideal.
I think that shift registers are going to provide the best solution,
however you mentioned that for your particular application that is not
ideal. Could you describe a little bit more why shift registers are
problematic?
Thanks Geoff, let us know.

Something happened to my iTunes and now it says synced with another library

Something happened to iTunes and it cleared out everything I had in there.
When I plug in my ipod it says "the ipod is synced with another iTunes library do you want to erase this ipod and sync with iTunes library". iTunes seems to recognize my ipod, but iTunes is empty of all of my files. Everything is still on my ipod but not in iTunes.
My ipod is synced to my computer only. I have no idea what happened to iTunes.
Is there any way to get all the previous files back that were stored in iTunes or do I have to re-load everything?
Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated thanks.

Try holding down the Shift key in Windows when opening iTunes. In the resulting dialogue you will get the option to create a new library or navigate to an existing one. The default location for your iTunes library is in C:\Documents and Settings\Username\My Documents\My Music\iTunes\ (or C:\Username\Music\iTunes\ in Vista). Look in there and see if you have more than one library file (they have the extension .itl) If you have more than one try opening them in turn, you may find your original library is still intact: How to open an alternate iTunes Library file

FCS2 "Something Happened" message at load, other upgrade issues URGENT

Final cut studio has been giving me a "Something Happened" message every time I load it since after I upgraded it. What is this?? It seemed at the time that the upgrade to FCP Studio 2 installation went well...no weird messages or anything.
I did the upgrade at the end of last year and Ive been using the software OK with three exceptions:
1.- The FCP "Something Happened" message always appears when the OS loads...
2.- The new COMPRESSOR wont load at all....ever! (I installed ALL upgrades frpom the web and ALSO downloaded the compressor upgrade (from Nov 07) and installed it "by hand", but to no avail.
4.- FCP cannot render exotic effects (For example the ones that work in Motion)Final Cut pro asks me to upgrade my graphics card from the old 60 mb NVIDIA GEFORCE that came with the first system to a larger one.
I just bought it through the net and it should be here in a couple of weeks. (I am in Nicaragua, Central America).
I dont know what to do about the compressor (I need it urgently but dont know how to uninstall and reinstall ONLY compressor).
My machine specs are
Model POWER MAC 7.2
CPU Power PC 970 (2.2)
2 CPU Units
Level 2 cache 512 KB
Memory 4 GB
Bus speed 1 GHZ
Start ROM version 5.1.5 F0
Serial G8429CVLPXD

Dear Jerry
Im very afraid of doing a full reinstall for a couple of reasons:
1.-We dont have a reliable and FCP-savy MAC techie in Nicaragua.
2.-I am not 100% sure I have ALL of the disks for all of the previous versions of the software
3.- There are a lot of other things on that drive that I am afraid of losing.
Do you have any other ideas??
Do you think issues will be resolved when the new video card comes??
Is there any way of installing (In the meantime) only the previous version of COMPRESSOR??
Thanks for any help-
Carlos

Alert Text: Something Happened

When I restart or start up my computer I get this warning from
FCP...Alert Text: Something Happened...Any ideas?

well if you had entered the title of this post into search you would have your answer already, but as I recall the answer is something like this: go into sys prefs, accounts, startup items, delete something called "alert" or something like that.
