Stop Lightroom from forcing "-edit" rename and saving in the same directory when saved from Photoshop

After opening a file from Lightroom 5 in photoshop, is there a way to disable the function that automatically saves a file back to Lightroom in the same folder, while adding the infuriating "-edit" to the filename? I keep my files in a very tight file structure, with DNGs, PSDs, and JPGs all neatly separated. It drives me batty that when I save a file it saves it in the same directory as the DNG. Why would anyone want this as a feature. STOP IT!
I know I can simply "Save As" but there has to be a way to turn this off.

I know you can have Lightroom change the appended "-edit" (via Preferences) to practically anything you'd like but as far as I know, it's all by design. Photoshop/Lightroom will always save a copy and leave your original files alone. To be honest, I'd want all my edits contained to where the original file was as well. As long as they're in the same folder, I'm happy.

Why isn't my word doc saving in the same format when saved to a pdf?

When I save my word doc to a pdf, the text boxes are getting all jumbled. I tried changed the font, but that did not help the text box issue.

Nobody can tell you anything without proper system info or other technical details like exact PDF settings, version of your Office program and so on. And naturally screenshots tell a lot more than even the most verbose description of a pink butterfly on a rosy peach...

How can I delete photos from my iPad, iPhone, and laptop at the same time?

How can I delete photos from my iPad, iPhone, and laptop at the same time so I don't have to do it separately on each device?

Photos that were synced from your computer using iTunes can only be deleted by de-selecting them from the folder from where they were synced - and then re-syncing.
Connect the iPad to the PC and launch iTunes.
Click on the iPad name on the left side under devices.
Click on the Photos Tab on the right.
If you want to remove all of the Photos - uncheck the Sync Photos from Heading
Click on Apply in the lower right corner of iTunes
If you are using iTunes 11 - this will be helpful, Setting up syncing in Windows.

Make sure that both the web browser you're using and its Flash plug-in are up to date. Google Chrome has its own Flash plug-in it updates on its own. Firefox, IE and other have separate plug-ins.

I upgraded my new iPad (iPad 3) to IOS 6 and everything went well except Siri won’t launch apps. When asked say “launch Facebook” Siri responds with “it doesn’t look like you have an app named Facebook” and I get the same results when trying to launch any app. Siri works for everything else it just won’t launch apps. Any ideas? Thanks.

I have this same problem... Seems like nobody else does. Siri won't launch any apps for me, including native apps.

Edit video and audio at the same time

Is it possible when I remove some of the audio to also remove the same amount of that time from the video?

Lilybiri,
We did record both the audio and video at the same time in Captivate 8.
The question is: how do we edit the audio and video at the same time?
If I want to cut out 5 seconds of audio can I or will the software cut out that same portion of the video and if so how do we do it?
Do we need to create a Demo or Software Simulation to be able to take advantage of this tool for cutting both together.
Your assistance is very much appreciated.

After closing out, FF will not restart, says it is already running forcing me to reboot. I have removed and re-installed FF and still get the same message when trying to open the internet using FF. How can this be fixed?

When I close out Firefox, and return later to use the internet, I click on Firefox and it gives me a message stating that Firefox is already running and needs to be closed before restarting or reboot my system. This occurs every time Firefox is closed and attempt to re-start it,,, not only at times,,,, EVERY time.
I have tried removing Firefox from my system and re-installing to fix this issue however,,, this did not work. After re-installing, I still get the same message when attempting to restart Firefox.
I have also tried Ctrl, Alt, delete to open the task manager and find there is no task to close.
I do not have any problems when using IE, I prefer to use Firefox as it is faster and crashes less than IE.
I am very frustrated at having to reboot my system each time I want to use the internet.
How can this problem be repaired?

There are various causes for this error, see [[Firefox is already running but is not responding]] for details.

UCCE send a caller from agent to IVR and back to the same agent

Hello,
I am trying to come up with a way to implement the following logic in UCCE 7.5 with IP IVR 7.0
A caller gets to an agent and requests a service that requires identification
The agent sends the caller back to IVR for identification
UCCE reserves the agent. If caller hangs up the agent is chaged back to ready state.
After authentication the caller is taken back to the same agent.
I am not sure how to do steps 3 and 4. I need to be sure that the agent will be available to take the call and not make the customer wait again in queue. I guess I just need a variable to store the agent ID and pass it to the other script so it can make a queue to agent step, but then how do I make the agent reserved or not ready (so he's not taken by another call) and then present the same call back to him? Then I need a way to monitor the customer's activity in IVR and notify the agent if the customer dropped the call.
Tough one...
Stoyan

Hi Stoyan
I've been looking into the same thing, did you find a solution yet? I had considered letting the Agent do a transfer to the IVR, collect the Agent ID (or if possible the instrument number they were currently logged in with) for routing back to the Agent. Set the Agent to permanent Not Ready so they don't receive any other Contact Centre calls. Let the IVR play out as long as it takes without having to calculate for retries etc. or leaving long delays before the agent can be reached again. If I could only set the AgentID in the transfer script I would perform a database lookup on the ICM real time tables to find out what extension they were currently logged in with and route direct to that (reachable even if in the Not Ready state). The main implication of this would be that I would lose visibility of the remainder of this call with regards the skill group statistics. However, the default skill group could be set for each agent to account for this....not ideal as reporting would become more manual but still recorded at some level.

Mac OS X disallow same folder name and filename under the same directory

I noticed Mac doesn't allow me to create the same filename and folder name under the same directory.
Seems like this constraint is unique only to Mac since I can do it in Unix and Windows.
Why is this so?
Mac OS X (10.4.9)

In Windows, there's probably a normally hidden extension being added to the file and/or the folder.
In Unix, I'm NOT able to create both file "foo" and folder "foo". What version of Unix are you using that allows this? (Mac OS X is built on top of Unix.)
One workaround would be to give the file a reasonable extension; foo.txt or foo.doc or foo.jpeg or whatever.

Solar cell charging battery and load at the same time When there is Sun , When there is no sun , the battery take over and power up the Load

Hi
Im currently doing a project using LabVIEW and myDAQ where i have to use the solar cell to charge the battery and turn on the load ( LED) when there is light
and once the the solar cell is unable to detect the light , the battery will power the load instead of the solar cell
i am having some problems with labview programing ( unable to work )
Does anyone has something similar that i could reference to ?
Thanks

Good to see that you found the LabVIEW forum, but you have not added any more information than what you posted on the Reddit LabVIEW forum.
The people here will also need more information about what is not working, be as specific as possible. I will also repeat that you can replace the inputs with controls and the outputs to indicators so you have more control over the code to test it. Then introduce the real IO when you have the code working like you want it to.

What's the fastest way to edit SD and HD in the same project?

Hi,
I'm running the latest version of FCP2 on the latest OS and I have dailies in both SD and HD that need to be cut into the same project. The HDV dailies are 1080p 23.98. We will be finishing in HD but that doesn't concern me because we're finishing this on a Flame. I have worked in SD and I've worked with HDV but always separately, never in the same project. I know that Apple ProRes settings are supposed to allow you to work in both in one project, however, I don't want to have to render every 5 seconds. Does that happen? OR will it allow me to play a cut straight down with no errors with both SD and HD footage in the same sequence?

I am going to kindly ask that you ignore what David is saying. The information he has given you to this point is incorrect.
You can capture HDV as SD. The camera or deck you are using will have an option to output the footage as DV. Mind you DV doesn't look as good as HD, and if your intent is an HD master, this would not be the way to go. Capture HDV as HDV...or heck, you can even capture it as ProRes via firewire:
http://library.creativecow.net/articles/poisson_chris/hdv-prores.php
Just changing the settings to PRORES doesn't mean that you can now edit everything together. ProREs is a codec, just like DV and HDV. You can have your timeline set up to render HDV AS ProRes, but not sure what that does when you mix in SD on the same timeline.
Anyway, FCP is perfectly capable of mixing formats without rendering if you are running FCP 6. You will need faster drives for this than the normal firewire 400. And with HDV, you would be wise to use an Intel Mac, as HDV requires a bit of processing power. While I have been able to mix formats with my G5, I get a bright green render bar as opposed to a dark green bar on my MacPro.
OK, David did give one piece of true advice. You would be better off converting SD to HD before you edit. Or at least after you have locked picture (so you don't have to convert TOO much). Compressor does a really good job, and if you are capturing your HDV as ProRes, then upconverting the SD to ProREs will look fine. SD as HDV...ugh, I don't want to think about that.
Mind you, ProREs requires raided drives. DV is 3.6MB/s, and ProRes standard is 15MB/s...4 times that of DV. A raided FW800 drive like the G-Raid would be the lowest you could go, but I wouldn't count much on mixing formats with that. either an internal RAID (MacPro) or external eSATA Raid or mini SAS would be better. I like the CalDigit S2VR Duos...and this great desktop drive from MaxxDigital. SOnnet has good models...
