Synchronization versus check-in versus check-out

I have read manuals , the "help" files and continue to be somewhat confused. I just now "synchronized" my files in CS3 after having a developer help me to get my website started. In the process I saw "put" (where are they being put?) but also when I create a new web page I see the message "check-in" files being process and then when I complete my page I have been "checking in". Please give guidelines: now that I am "on my own" do I need to both "check-in" and "synchronize"? The terminology is confusing. Thank you for your help Rosalyn

The synchronization command will make sure that the same files on the public server are the same as those on your local computer. When you see the put command, that is when the file is put from your computer onto the server where your website is accessed by people on the internet.
The check-in/check-out features are more for if you have a team of developers who are actively working on the same site. What this will do is allow for other developers to see that someone else is editing a file and prevent them from editing the file at the same time. So the files are checked out and checked back in.

Checked In Icon versus Checked Out Icon

In Dreamweaver 8, there are icons to show when users have
checked something out, the icon (if you are the user) is a green
check mark, the icon (if checked out by another user) is a red
check mark, for many that are color deficient, this is an obstacle,
it is already a small icon, and at that small size it is difficult
to distinguish between the green and red checkmarks.
I have run a search in the program files to identify where
this image or icon is located, I have run a search in Google's
search engine, in Adobe's Web site, I have called Customer Support,
I have called Technical Support, I have run a search in these Adobe
forums, I have not been able to find anything to identify where
these icons are located or how to solve this dilemna. If anyone
knows of anything to help me in this problem it would be much
appreciated.
Thank you.

> I have run a search in the program files to identify

a guess is the images are in a compiled part of the
application and not
editable unless mucking around with a hex editor.
maybe this might help-
you could expand the Files panel, then click the checkin
status header to
sort the files by their status?
of course now the files aren't in the sort order you were
using before.

How can i access my old correspondense with old password in Mozilla Thunderbird? How can i check out from my password?

I had my website moved to other hosting. Accordingly, i changed a password, and when i checked in on my computer the first time with a new password, i stupidly checked the box "remember me on this computer", but i lost access to all my old emails that were laying in Thunderbird on my PC. How can i check out from the current password and log in with the old one so that i could access my old correspondense?

'''Pop mail accounts '''can only access the server Inbox.
Messages are downloaded to your computer and stored in the Thunderbird Profile mail account.
Usually, the copy on the server is removed unless you select to 'leave messages on server' in Account Settings..
'Tools' > 'Account Settings' > 'Server Settings' for pop mail account.
These emails are stored on your computer and can be accessed in both 'online' and 'offline' mode.
You would need to make sure you periodically create a backup of these emails.
'''IMAP mail accounts '''see a remote view of any subscribed folder on the server.
Subscribed folders download headers only and when you select to read an email, it is retrieved from the server and stored in a temporary cache to faciltate quick access to reading.
These emails are not stored in your Thunderbird profile folders on your computer, so would not be visible if you changed to 'offline' mode. They are stored on the server.
If you did not synchronise those subscribed folders then a copy was never stored in your Thunderbird profile imap mail account.
As you have modified the IMAP mail account and it is currently accessing the new hosting server, so cannot display anything on a different server, I would leave it alone because it is working just fine.
What you could try is to create a new IMAP mail account with server settings to the old host server using the old password.
File > New > exisitng mail account
Enter name, email address and password
click on 'Continue'
If you do manage to get access, then synchronise the subscribed folders to get a copy downloaded to Thunderbird Profile folders. As those folders are constantly updating to match the server, once you have the emails downloaded, go into 'offline' mode and move them into 'Local Folders'; you will need to make new folders in Local Folders account for those emails.
However, it is possible that you may not get access as that contract has ended. There is no obligation for the old host company to keep your emails if you do not have an account with them. In which case those emails will be lost.
After creating new imap mail account, if you get access do as advised to get emails into Local Folders, once emails are in Local folders you can remove/delete the imap mail account. If it does not work, you can delete the imap mail account.

How to cancel a check out?

Hi,
I have a problem with a file, which seems to be checked out. A check in is not possible because the computer was re-installed with windows.
When I try to synchronize the sources of this java file the following build process tells me the file is write protected, which is true. So I have to manually unprotect the file, but sometimes changes are not really possible. I just checked it out, modified it and checked it in, but after a new sync the changes are lost
Is there a possibility to see which files are checked out? I tried to use the DTRShell but I can't find a suitable command
Regards, Nils.
Edit: I get the modified file after I remove the write protection. However...

Hello Nils,
See if this helps.
1. Log on to DTR Web UI with Administrator user.
2. Search for the activity. Even if you dont remember the name search for all the open activities. There is a search report which is integrated with DTR Web UI. i dont have a system right now else would have sent the exact link.
3. Once you find the relevant activity navigate to it by clicking on the link.
4. On the top right hand corner there is drop down from there select revert activity.
Be aware that you will lose all the changes done. Hopefully this should work.

Check in check out in Dreamweaver CS5 with php site

I created a new site for a client that has about 160 pages, three user login levels, site security, php, forms, . . . The client has a staff member who will make updates to pages with changing content but now wants access to the entire site so she can change wording on other pages as well - she's their new communications coordinator and it certainly makes sense to me. But I'm worry about giving her access to the entire site - I've since learned about check in and check out in Dreamweaver. Since I can't just throw pages in a directory for her to access via ftp (have set that up for one staff member creating gis maps), I'm wondering if this check in check out option is the better way to go for us.
She will use Dreamweaver, like me. Although we do not share the same office or have access to the same network. The only sharing we can do is on our hosting services server. Can I "check out" files I need her to leave alone and leave them that way? That way she'll have access to all of the primary content pages, not the scripts, css, includes, admin, js, bin, etc files. It should make life easier for her, too, I think.
What's common practice for this? And how does synchronization fit in?

This situation really needs a proper Content Management System (CMS): Wordpress, Joomla, Drupal, Expression Engine all come to mind.
She's a content contributor, you're the system admin. She needs a bulletproof browser-based editing environment to do her thing without worrying about anything else.
Down the track, she'll probably want repeat content that she can control on different pages, content expiry, scheduled content, categories, tags, sidebars, headlines: all standard CMS features.
Using Dreamweaver and Check In/Check Out is just going to create one issue after another.
The current solution was probably adequate in the past but it's reaching the limits of its scalability. It's really time for a new solution.
Have you considered a CMS?

NWDI Check out conflict

Hi,
I am trying to checkout(edit) a DC settings , I received following error:
"DC Definition could not be checked out : The file .dcdef is checked out by others"
Is there any way I can resolve this as other user sits on different time zone and look offline. I could not inform him checkin his activity.
Thanks
Praveen

Hello,
Is the file edited as 'exclusive'? If not you can override it anyway and the last
doing the check-in will have to merge the conflicts.
Otherwise, if you have administrator permissions, you can:
1. Log on http://<server-di>:<port-di>/devinf/main as user administrator.
2. Go to "Component Build Service"
3. On the top select 'Activities'
4. Search on the right Buildspace.
5. There are different Tabs, select "Pending Activities" and filter if needed.
6. If there, you see your partner activity, you can select and activate it.
7. Synchronize again the DC and you should be able to 'Check it out'.
Hope it helps.
Regards,
David.

After userA check out a page, edit the page and save, Sharepoint prompt userA have checked out the page

In one of site collection at our SP2013 farm, we have "SharePoint Server Publishing" site feature and "SharePoint Server Publishing Infrastructure" site collection feature activated.
One of user (UserA) create a page in a page library. The new page is marked as "checked out by UserA". It is fine.
Then UserA open the page -> edit page -> key in something and "save". Then the page prompt him "The file Pages/subfolder/test001.aspx has been modified by i:0#.w|test\userA on 8Aug2014 xx:xx:xx" and ask him to choose "Leave
this page" or "say at this page". The date time is exactly the time he was editing the page.
Whatever he choose will save the page and return to "View" mode (non-edit mode).
It is not the only problem. When userA want to edit the same page again and save, it prompt him that "The page could not be saved because your changes conflict with recent changes made by another user. If you continue, your changes will be lost."!
When userA choose continue or "check out". Follow screen show up:
What can we do? In summary, userA cannot edit a page because userA have checked out! We have tried for different users have exactly same issue.

We are having the same problem, the one thing we have found is if we use the Save Icon on the top right hand side of the page in the ribbon (next to follow), that Save works just fine. What is causing the issue is when trying to use the Save Icon on
the left hand side of the ribbon that has the dropdown options to 'Save', 'Save and Keep Editing' or 'Stop Editing'. It doesn't matter if you just click on the main Icon or choose any of the dropdown options, they all cause issues with the pages.
Thoughts?

"Unable to Check Out File Error" Message

I'm new to using Adobe products, so forgive me if this is a dumb question! My graphic designer sent me a INDD file to edit the text in and when I try to open it in both InDesign and InCopy, I receive an "Unable to Check Out this File" error message. I just downloaded InDesign CC and InCopy CC (the free trial versions). She said that all settings on her end should allow me to view it. Any help is much appreciated!
Thank you!

I've just experienced the same error message in CS4. I got rid of it by going to the Links panel, selecting all the links to Incopy, and Unlinking.

Items greyed out after upgrading and migrating to Sharepoint 2013 - Open and Check Out + Manage Document Option

Hi there,
Following a migration to SharePoint 2013, the follow options have been disabled (Open and Check out + Manage) (see below). These are critically important functions and make it very hard to make SharePoint a useable interface. Any guidance on how to resolve
these issues is greatly appreciated. This is not a branded website, and there has been no changes made to the standard interface.
Kind regards
Jarrad Koppen

I'm not sure what the easiest way is either. First, I would try to create a new site collection with a new library and see if you get the same behavior. If not, then its something in the upgrade process. If it does that also would point
to something being wrong in the way that javascript is being executed.
If it is happening everywhere I suspect you'll have to start tracing javascript using something like IE developer's toolbar to see why the status on those buttons isn't changing when you select a document. I'm not sure what else to suggest.

Time evaluation generate check out entry

Dear Gurus,
How can we generate Check out entries thru Time evaluation?
The sales employees come to office in the morning, they punch in and leave for sales activity. They don't get overtime, but pay / absence quota deducted if they don't check in in the system.
While running Time evaluation, I am getting error in TE03 (delimiting error). I hv tried creating second entry using TF00. Its not working. Has anybody any solution for this?
Regards,
Vijay

Hi Gurus,
I am rephrasing my requirements. have 2 queries,
1. Sales Employees make only Clock In entries. System should generate the clock out entry or should not throw any error message. System should consider total working time from daily work schedule.
   - TE30 function is generated the entry in TEVEN table based on planned end time, but we need to create the entry in IT2012 otherwise, while processing next days entry, it generates error.
   - Will TF00 create an entry in Time Events IT2051 ? IF yes, how can I tweak TF00 rule to generate Time out entry.
2. General Staff working hours need to be calculated from Shift Start even if they come early. Max working time is 12 hours with 4hrs from start of end of Shift period
   - If shift start is 7AM, I have defining Start tolerance as 6AM to 7:05AM, but still the system is considering the Clock In time for hours worked.
I have to write this condition. How to write ?
   If Clock-in Time < Start Time
      Then   TIP->From = Start Time
I believe it has to be put in TL10 after rounding the Check in & check outs.. so as to update table TIP,
Please suggest,
Regards,
Vijay

One problem I'm having is find the perfect streaming settings for the movies. I did check them on a fast Windows machine and on a brand new Mac at the local CompUSA store. Things worked well on their very fast Internet connection but the longer concept video didn't seem to want to stream. I'm almost thinking to grab some JumpCut or YouTube code and insert it just to get it to work. I know this will put their logos in but I'm just not sure what to do.
One thing I'm aware of and something I did do on purpose is that I made the background images very large -- to accomodate those wealthy folks with the very big, very wide monitors. I wanted never to run out of background "virtual" world no matter how big one stretched the browser window. Also, the necessity to scroll was intentional. Let me know if this is too annoying.
Appreciate any expert helpful comments and feedback on improvements.
No I won't update to 10.4.9! Mac OS X (10.4.8) I said no!

As a teacher of marketing & multimedia presentation design, Garr Reynolds says at his site: "Design is a big, big deal. We all have a responsibility to understand its potential and its power. You do not need to be a designer — but you do need to become more design sensitive or 'design mindful'."
In particular, according to another experienced designer: "Color should be used in the same way that type size is used: to emphasize importance, not decorate a page."

File a complaint with them. Verizon will call you to fix the blunder.
But remember it is always up to the customer to insure what they are getting and what it costs. Don't trust the word of a sales person who makes their living on getting that sale. Lies, deceit or false promises will be and have been used by sales people for thousands of years.
Good Luck

[SVN] checking out takes ages..

Hello all,
Do you have the same problem with it? Arch seems to be the only distro I have this problem on. Checking out repositories just takes several minutes. Downloading the files is just as fast as it should be. It's just the initializing part. Maybe svn has too many unneeded dependencies?
Thanks in advance,
--Ronny

svn works fine for me. Perhaps you should mess with some 'verbose' flags or something and try to figure out exactly where the bottleneck is.
