Structured framemaker window does not maximize and other issues

Dear All,
My questions concerns the use of FM11 & FM12 in Structured FrameMaker mode under Windows 8.1.
When FM is started in Structured mode I find that the FrameMaker window is a fraction of the size that it was when operating in Unstructured mode. When the FM (structured) window is maximized instead of the window occupying the full screen as expected it occupies only about 2/3 of the screen. The receptors of dialog buttons (e.g. the OK and CANCEL buttons) are not at the locations of the on screen drawings of the buttons. In short, the Structured FrameMaker interface is not functional. And to be clear the interface of the Unstructured version of the program works in the expected manner.
My reason for operating with Structured FrameMaker in the first place is to workaround a very serious deficiency in the Unstructured version of the program in which attempting to print a book to the Adobe PDF virtual printer causes FrameMaker to crash. Another gripe with FrameMaker is that the Save As PDF file option fails to properly render the document - typically incorrect fonts are used in the output PDF file, equations are clipped, etc. etc. It is this deficiency that means we must print to the Adobe PDF virtual printer.
We are also experiencing intermittent crashing of the program in versions 11 & 12 for no apparent reason whereas previously (version 7, 5.5) the program seemed to be more robust.
Are others experiencing a significant deterioration in the performance of FrameMaker in recent releases? Are you considering changing to a different program? If so, what programs are you considering?
Many thanks,
David.

David,
FYI, the SaveAsPDF route also uses the AdobePDF printer instance, so some of the issues are due to selected output options and Distiller joboptions. Also, both versions (structured and unstructured) use the same output mechanism independent of the interface.
The appearance of the interface is a function of the Workspace selected and any customization done by the user of that interface. You can create your own layouts and save them as required as a custom Workspace.
What did you select when you used the SaveAsPDF - RGB or CMYK? What joboptions file was specified?
Are you using any OTF Pro level or TTF WGL fonts? Is your joboptions file specifying that all fonts be embedded?

After System Restore windows programs not loading, and other issues!

To preface this I have no interest in keeping vista on here I have a CD with windows7 setup on it that I would like to install either on a new partition or over the exsisting one but no clue how to do this right, and when I tried booting up from the CD it gave me an error, so I can't do the setup that way, however I did get a version of windows xp (hiren's minixp) to boot from a thumbdrive, however I could not get my wireless internet to work on it. however thru ethernet it did, but need wifi!) I need a computer for tomorrow morning for my new job orientation is done thru a website and I need a computer to use at thehotel (im out of town) so its not an option taking it to a repair shop tomorrow (its sunday and all), or sending back to lenovo plus its outta warranty.
Help! I am very novice at best with techy stuff so I will try to explain this the best that I can. I've had a lenovo N500 Laptop running Vista Home Edition for a couple years now. It did not come with any recover cd's or anything like that. It was starting to run slow, so I figured I'd do the old trusty Factory Restore and start fresh, always did the trick on other computers I owned with windows. Well I went through the whole process of restoring it, and did the initial system setup and naming. When it loaded my desktop for the first time it was all downhill from there. There is no IE installed, no default programs would open, instead I got this error message (example when opening Windows Mail).
C:\Program Files\Windows Mail\WinMail.exe
The specified path does not exsist.
Check the patch, and then try again.
It does this for every program. Here's the thing the only C:\ Drive that shows up is assigned to removable disk. Here are the current labels for my default Drives.
Lenovo(Q
ServiceV003(S
SW_Preload(D
So I think the issues possibly that when it was reformatted it labeled the drive a different letter, so it's trying to pull the files from the C drive as a path,. but it needs to be q or s or d or something. Keep in mind this is my very novice theory.

for wireless issue:
have you checked device managemer for unknown/non-installed devices? you may need to install drivers for your adapters.
try to press f8 when you see lenovo logo, then load "safe mode with networking", check if the adapters work.
can you tell us what error you got when you tried to install win7? also, some of applications doesn't come with preloaded systems so you need to install them later ( as windows mail, msn messenger )

Check number confirmation window does not appear and checks become confirmed automatically

We have updated to SAP 9.10.105 PL 00,
and we have two issues with check printing, first when we print check we do not receive a confirmation window and all of the checks show as being confirmed. as soon as be print checks in the payment wizard after the checks have printed we than get an error message.
"no matching records found 'checks for payment' (OCHO) (ODBC 2028) [message 131-183]
the second problem is if I set over flow to blank paper, it will only print one check at a time, and i still do not receive a confirmation window.
I am not sure if the original patch for 8.8 was left out of the 9.1 release.

Thanks for this, I found this after posting a message with SAP Support. Just a heads up, they consider it as 'Consulting' function not an 'Application Error' so they will not be a fix. We'll just need to know to make sure users know to un-check this Box.

Elite Pro, CMSS-3D not working and other issues after driver update

DElite Pro, CMSS-3D not working and other issues after driver update <font face="arial,helvetica,sans-serif" size="4">Elite Pro CMSS-3D control (on I/O console)no longer controls CMSS-3D.
The only time it works is if the original drivers are installed from the installation CD.
ANY other drivers stop the control on the Elite Pro I/O console from having any effect on CMSS-3D.
Also at one time when I cotrolled volume, CMSS-3D(original drivers), EAX and Crystalizer from the Elite Pro I/O controls then I had on screen display of said control that was being moved(on I/O console).
Now regardless of what drivers are installed, there?are no longer any on screen indicators.
The indicators looked like the ones that show when using the remote controller.
Anyone have any ideas?

ITunes proxy authorisation window does not appear (and account is being blocked randomly)

Many users have iTunes installed on their PC. iTunes requires proxy authorization to connect to internet. Appropriate popup window appears when opening iTunes and trying to open some internet-based page there. Entering current AD account credentials helps to connect. There is also a checkmark there allowinf to save credentials for further use (and do not show this window anymore). When AD password is changed - this popup window does not appear again and user's account is being blocked (because iTunes tries to connect proxy with old credentials). The question is: is it possible to reset proxy settings, stored somewhere inside iTunes somehow? Just to return proxy authorization window back. Did you have such an experience? If you caould share any knowledge - it would be great.

Photoshop CS4 64 bit - Clone Tool does not work (and other tools)

Hello.
I have been using Photoshop for many years going back to v5. I had used Design Prem Suite CS4 for the past year on an XP machine. All worked fine. I recently moved to WIndows 7 (64 bit) to get the add memory usage. CS4 installs both 64 and 32 bit versions on Windows 7 64 bit. So far all good. Any help would be GREATLY APPRECIATED. I am at a dead end and really have no confidence in getting Adobe's help.
My tools are working erratically, especially the cloning and healing tools. I can't even use Photoshop in its current state and this has been going on now for weeks, no help from Adobe on my lates support ticket post.
I canonly say that the clong tools is all over the place including but not limited to:
* When I sample and then click to stamp, lines shoot across across the image as it I clone a line not a single sample area. These stamps can be the length of the enite image.
* when I sample, then click to stamp, some the stamps occurs on some other part of the image.
* when I sample and the click to stamp, nothing happens. I have to click several times.
* when I sample and then click to stampl, the prior location I stamped has the clone applied
There are more, but this is to just give an example.
Notes:
* I have trashed preferences at least 20 times and the problem immediately reappears
* The problem happens in both the 32 bit and 64 bit version of PS running in Windows 7 65 bit
* The problem occurs with OpenGL tuned on and off
* I have installed the latest PC patch 11.0.1
* I have updated my latest NVidia drives. They are current.
* I uninstalled Photoshop (kept the rest of Suite) and that did not work, and the same problem reappeared. I am not uninstalling the complete suite but the reinstall has error (that is a separate issue)
* I have triple monitors running off 2 GeForce 9800 GT cards. These worked flawlessly before upgrading to the Windows 7 64 bit configuration. When I upgrades, I replaced the processor, motherbaord and moved to 12 GB ram. The graphic cards are the same.
Other tool issues:
* I have similar problems with the healing brush
* sometomes the text tool acts strange. I will click to enter text and a large area opens to enter text instead of just the cursor positioned ready for text. Then other times it works normally.
* the move tools sometimesacts strange. For example, if I try to move some test, the text jumps and moves of the image and I have to find it to drag it back on the image.
Thanks in advance

All I can say is... Boy am I glad I have an ATI card that just works (and that's including Photoshop CS4/CS5 32/64 bit)!
One thing I'm not sure was mentioned above... Try changing your Advanced OpenGL preferences to "Basic" or even turning off OpenGL to see if it affects the issue. Also try disabling the Show Overlay function in the CLONE SOURCE palette.
Best of luck getting to the bottom of these problems, guys. If they run on too long, consider switching brands.

Windows does not open and I cannot see my desktop at all

I have a 2-year old T60, on which I recently tried to defragment files to free up hard space. Now, when turned on, it displays a message that the \WINDOWS\system32 file is corrupt or missing and that I have to reinstall windows with the CD-ROM, but I don't have it anymore. Can anyone tell me how I could possibly find this file and fix it?

Two steps to be executed to determine if the system can be recovered:
1. Easiest, boot the system and access Windows boot options (F8) and select "Last Known Good Configuraiton",..but this is unlikely to succeed if your system hive is truly corrupt since the LastKnownGood is inside the file you may be having issues with. This recovery option needs to verified since it only takes seconds and foolish to execute the next step w/o verifying this one.
2. The registry hive could be corrupted and a chkdsk will fix it, the Catch22 is Windows has a boot time chkdsk feature but it has to load the system hive first,....well if you system hive is corrupted then you'll never load the base components to execute chkdsk. You can create a Bart with PEbuilder but this is a task that requires a skilled novice or interim level expertise, if this is intimidating then you can download a shareware 14 day trial version with a genuine email address for your temporary license key and visit http://www.avast.com/eng/bart-demo-request.php download a compiled version of BartPE ISO.
If you aren't familiar with ISO's or how to burn an ISO then you need the assistance of tech since recording ISO's is a rudimentary task compared to what you have to do next--
Boot the PE enviro from your CD (you may have to press F12 at powerup to access your Boot Options menu
Execute the PE environment and start a command / DOS shell
chkdsk c: /f /x
Press Eneter (DUH, if you need to be told to press enter.....get tech help nub ((if you don't know what "nub" means..... you need to stop repairing your own gear))
Take note of any file errors during the chkdsk, there will be a tally report at the end of the process and depending on how badly the disk is chunked up or how large the disk is...this could take hours to finish.
If that fails, then you'll have to explore professional troubleshooting options or the possibility of a reinstallation becomes larger.
Don't just sit there, take a second and use the Kudo's button to compliment the people who help you.

Scan app not opening and other issues

Hi,
Let me start by saying thank you for your assistance. I have a regular-old 5514 photosmart airprint printer, and it is going crazy. It is just about to be two years old. My computer is a MacBook Pro on 10.9.1 (also two years old). The printer and computer are connected by my Comcast blast wifi. All of my paper and ink are HP. So here's the problem, first it won't print my pictures, not on glossy or regular-it just makes the noise like it is printing but the pages are blank (this never used to be a issue); second, the scan app won't even open on my computer, it just gives me a long page of coded errors or just automatically closes; finally, it often is printing streaky if it does print. There are no updates that I can find on for the app on my computer, and I have zone 2 ink, (I will buy more if this thing starts working), and I have run all the tests and they are completely fine as if nothing is wrong. Please help! If you need additional details I can provide that info.
Thanks,
amycdero

Hi amycdero and welcome to the HP Forum,
I understand that you are having scanning and printing issues after upgrading to Mavericks OS X v10.9.1. I will try my best to help you resolve this issue.
In this document for Mac OS X: Scanning Software Does Not Open or Stops Responding are steps the may help you with your scanning issue.
This document for Fixing Ink Streaks, Faded Prints, and Other Common Print Quality Problems should help with the streaking printing issue.
I hope this information is helpful. Please let me know.
Thank you,

Twist charm swipes not working and other issues

Hi all,
I just got a new Twist a few days ago and am having some issues with it. I got it on line from Staples who have a very limited return policy so I need to get these problems resolved quickly or will have to return it in a few days. I really like it a lot and would hate to return it and deal with the replacement, double charge on my CC until they get the defective Twist and refund the bucks, not to mention the shipping hassles.
I've installed all updates including the Lenovo updates, updated the Bios, did a factory refresh and went through the update process all over again and also calibrated the screen.
So the problems I'm seeing are the swipes from top to close an app, left to view open apps, and right for the charms will intermittently stop working but you can still tap on apps to open them and slide the app screen left \ right.
The other issue is that occasionally the app screen will shrink and expand or open an app without being touched, I would have it on a stand in tablet mode and watch it expand \ contract, and suddenly bring up an app like Remote Desktop. I contacted Lenovo support they said it was a hardware issue and recommended returning it but I'm reluctant to do this and hope there's a solution for it.
I did notice was that moving to portrait mode would usually work to bring back the swipe functionality. Digging into it a bit more, I think I found the root cause, when it is in tablet mode with the keyboard folded back, the keyboard isn’t getting fully disabled, watching it closely I noticed that a cursor would sometimes appear \ disappear momentarily.
Any thoughts or advice would be GREATLY appreciated!!

okay, let's make really sure it is the entire iTunes folder. a typical one looks like this on the inside
the red arrow points to the heart of your iTunes library - the iTunes library file, the iTunes database. you will want to treat this file as the apple of your eye !
anyhoo, if indeed the entire iTunes folder is on the external, simply drag it from there to <MacintoshHD>/users/<yourname>/music on the new Mac.
since a folder by the same name is already in that location, the finder will tell you so and ask you if you want to "replace it with the one you're moving". confirm that you want that.
when the copying has finished, fire up iTunes and you should be taken to the exact same library you were used to from your old Mac.
finally, go iTunes > preferences > advanced and check that +iTunes media folder location+ is set correctly - it should point to the iTunes folder on your new Mac's startup disk. if it doesn't, change it accordingly.
please post back with results !

Microsoft Office 2008 issues. Help. Excel not opening and other issues!

I converted to Lion on day one. I was able to use Microsoft Office 2008 without problem for days, then, just today, every time I go to open an excel file it opens, closes, then gives me the option of sending error reports to Microsoft. Word opens fine. The program is totally up to date (just did the 12.3 update). I repaired disk permissions, restarted the computer twice. Still, the same things happen. Here is the message I get for the Microsoft Excell Error Report:

The other thing that happens is that whether on Word or Excel when I click on a file to open it, it keeps trying to open all the recent files from that program intead of *just the ONE* that I want it to open. I also notice on Safari that when I reopen the program it opens ALL the websites I recently visited even though I don't have that checked as a preference... What gives??????????
Any suggestions. I am freakingout here, really need to get into these documents.

Windows does not start and cannot get into safe recovery mode

Had a blue screen and when I start up Windows wants to run in safe mode. But this runs for a few seconds and then stops with a blank screen (have left this for over 2 hours).
If I select to start windows normally then the system just reboots to the windows repair screen.
I do not have a recovery disk as Windows vista was pre-installed. Any clues ?

Hi,
The possible reason is that Windows bootmanager or the system files are corrupted. You say that you haven't made a recovery disk, but what about Hdd image recovery (pressing F8 on startup)? If it's already removed, you have to:
1. Order the recovery disk https://backupmedia.toshiba.eu/landing.aspx Note, it's not free
2 Get a copy of Windows vista and install it. Then, download the all necessary drivers and enjoy it.

Battery will not charge. and other issues

Well i'm working on a friend of mines notebook, its a n100 model 0768 12u running windows xp. This is the situation so far. First his hard drive had fried so i replaced that and put the o.s. back on it,but now the battery will not charge. also the wireless network card and dvd drive did not work. I had originally thought that they might have fried as well when the hard drive went down. However I looked through the forums here and found that alot of people solved the battery issue simply by replacing the battery i recommended that. He purchased a replacement battery ( not a genuine lenovo battery, don't know if that makes a difference) and when i put it in the dvd drive and the network card started working no problem. But alas the battery still would not charge. the system runs fine without a battery in it, but if i put the battery in it while its running it turns itself off after about 30 seconds of having the battery in. when the system is powered off and i put the battery in the battery lcd in front blinks 5 times orange then nothing for about 30 seconds then 5 more times. maybe thats a trouble code, don't know, looked all oover the forums and couldn't find anything quite like it. any help would be greatly appreciated.
thanks
Steve

Duck3,
Glad that worked for you! Thanks for sharing here.
I saw a weird situation on friend's ThinkPad recently - a replacement battery arrived with a 37% charge (not 100% deliberately as somewhere around 40% is the best for shelf life), but it would not accept a charge. We did a reset by removing the battery & AC and pressing and holding the power button a number of times (some people say 10 times, some two or three times for a count of 5 or 10). This drains residual capacitance.
We plugged back in the battery and AC and it began to charge.
Might be worth a try here before he opens it up ....

Battery not recognised - and other issues with 867MHz Ti Book

Ok - here`s my story - I wonder if anyone can give me advice
on what to do next.
A week ago I started having trackpad issues with my tibook.
On 2 consecutive mornings the trackpad seemed to have frozen, held down. So that it brought up menus if the mouse was moved over one of the bars at the top of the screen. I wasn`t however, able to `click` on anything. An external
mouse, when plugged in, also didn`t work, though I was able to navigate the display using the keyboard shortcuts.
The first morning this happened, the OS also appeared to reset itself. ie the screen display picture went back to its original state - and all of the applications that i subsequently opened gave me a first time user `welcome` message.However, all of my files/photos/music etc were intact.
When the trackpad was working I backed everything up, ran
the hardware test cd, which came up clear, and called apple. They picked up the computer, which is under
warranty, on Friday, and at the time it was working fine.
I got the computer back yesterday, but unrepaired, and
with a new set of faults. Apple told me that they had checked the computer and had found
some evidence on the logic board, power in and bottom case
of past liquid spillage - but no other problems with the
computer. I don`t deny the liquid spillage ( a few ml of
water), although it
occurred 11 months ago and I have not had any problems with
the computer since 24 hours after the spill.
The state of the computer now that Apple have sent it back
is as follows: The trackpad is working. However, the computer is not recognsing the battery, or the wireless
networking Buffalo pc card. The clock also resets one out
of every 2 or 3 times that I restart the computer. These problems did not occur before I sent the computer to Apple.
Yesterday I erased and reinstalled 10.4 just in case that had
something to do with it - but it has not helped
So - my questions.
1. Could my current problems be to do with the spillage
on the logic board 11 months ago?
2. Could my new problems be to do with something that Apple
did when testing the computer this week?
3. Is there anything else that I should try in order to solve the issues that I`m having with the computer?
4. If it is a logic board problem, can anyone recommend
a UK repair centre that would deal with this cheaply (otherwise i will probably buy a new computer - as this
one is coming up for 3 years)?
Thanks,
Antony

Hi Antony,
1. Could my current problems be to do with the spillage
on the logic board 11 months ago?
Yes. Corrosion occurs over time, and it could have taken 11 months to reach "critcal mass."
2. Could my new problems be to do with something that Apple
did when testing the computer this week?
Theoretically, any time anyone does anything inside your PB, they could have caused additional issues, however, this would not be "normal."
3. Is there anything else that I should try in order to solve the issues that I`m having with the computer?
4. If it is a logic board problem, can anyone recommend a UK repair centre that would deal with this cheaply (otherwise i will probably buy a new computer - as this one is coming up for 3 years)?
Before paying for a new LB or a new PB, try a PMU Reset and Test PB Backup Battery.

Red (close) button becomes dark and windows does not close

Sometimes when I click the red (close window) button, it becomes darker and the window does not close, and the app seems inactive. I have to click the title bar (sometimes many times, the lag time to ) and the windows can close, or it can come back with the red button "normal". Very annoying when I have to close many specific windows as it completely breaks the flow of activities.
Mail seems to be a application where it happens often, but it happens also with safari, omnifocus...
Any idea how to fix this?
I use a trakpad/MBA mid 2011 OS X 10.9.4
Thanks,
Albi.

The problem is the same with Commnd-V, of course.
Here is how the button looks like,
I noticed it happens mainly when one application is active and I try to close a window which is not active.
