Timeline commands not working in CS4

I cannot get the position, rotation, scale or opacity commands to do anything. I change the numbers and the picture stays the same. If I apply the Luma Key to track 1, select "key out brighter" and adjust the tolerance, the bright areas turn black, not transparent. You can't see track 2 through the keyed areas. This all happened at the same time. is there a setting that I maybe maladjusted?

Live update may be turned off. Also, try resetting your workspace. If that doesn't work, delete your preferences file.

Illustrator Short Commands Not Working

Hi Team,
My illustrator CS6 short commands have stopped working.
Any time I try to use any CMD + Key, illustrator will not react.
This has been on going for a few months, I have tried resetting preferences but nothing has changed.
If someone could please help.
Thanks,
Brandon

Hi Jacob,
I have tried resetting preferences and few other options.
Anytime I press the CMD key the option at the bottom just changes from selection to direct selection, if that helps.
Should I uninstall and reinstall illustrator?
I no longer have my access key.
Thanks,
Brandon

THS,
You may try the following (you have tried/done some of them already) and see whether it helps (the following is a general list of things you may try when the issue is not in a specific file; 3) and 4) are specifically aimed at possibly corrupt preferences):
1) Close down Illy and open again;
2) Restart the computer (you may do that up to 3 times);
3) Close down Illy and press CtrlAltShift/CmdOptionShift during startup (easy but irreversible);
4) Move the folder Other options (follow the link with that name) with Illy closed (more tedious but also more thorough and reversible);
5) Look through and try out the relevant among the Other options (follow the link with that name, Item 7) is a list of usual suspects among other applications that may disturb and confuse Illy, Item 15) applies to CC, CS6, and maybe CS5);
Even more seriously, you may:
6) Uninstall, run the Cleaner Tool (if you have CS3/CS4/CS5/CS6/CC), and reinstall.

Script that worked in CS does not work in CS4 - multiple open page, print , pdf export and close

I had a script that worked great for me in Indesign CS. But now does not work in CS4. Anyone knows what needs to be done to make it work again ?
When I drop folder with indesign files on top of this script:
1. opens first page
2. turns specific layer on
3. prints using preset
4. exports using preset
5. close without saving
6. next page
Anyone who can give me solution or idea how this should work is greatly appreciated.
on open sourceFolders
repeat with sourceFolder in sourceFolders
tell application "Finder"
try
-- If you would like to include subfolders, you say - every file of entire contents of folder…
set idFiles to (every file of folder sourceFolder whose file type is "IDd5") as alias list
on error -- work around bug if there is only one file
set idFiles to (every file of folder sourceFolder whose file type is "IDd5") as alias as list
end try
end tell
if idFiles is not {} then
tell application "Adobe InDesign CS4"
set user interaction level to never interact
repeat with i from 1 to count of idFiles
open item i of idFiles
tell document 1
try
set visible of layer "ImagesTag_Layer" to true
end try
set myPreset to "letter size" -- name of print style to use
with timeout of 700 seconds
print using myPreset without print dialog
end timeout
set myPreset1 to "pdf preset name" -- name of pdf export style to use
set myName to the name -- name includes .indd should remove at some point
with timeout of 700 seconds
export format PDF type to "users:temp:Desktop:pdf:" & myName & ".pdf" using myPreset1 without showing options -- set path here format ComputerName:Folder1:Folder2:......:FileName.pdf
end timeout
close without saving
end tell
end repeat
set user interaction level to interact with all
end tell
end if
return 10 -- try again in 10 seconds
end repeat
end open

(Disclaimer: me not an AS guy!)
First thing I noticed is the interaction level is set off. If you comment out this line
set user interaction level to never interact
you might be able to pinpoint the exact error -- ID will display a standard "failed" dialog, hopefully showing the line that it fails on.
A quick question: the script assumes two presets in your InDesign: one for print ("letter size") and one for PDFs ("pdf preset name"):
set myPreset to "letter size" -- name of print style to use
set myPreset1 to "pdf preset name" -- name of pdf export style to use
Do these actually exist in your CS4, with the same (non)capitalization and spaces?

Why is my BDC_CURSOR command not working to position the cursor?

Why is my BDC_CURSOR command not working to position the cursor? Here are the details regarding my issue.
I am writing a BDC to mass delete routing material assignments using transaction CA02. I am OK to navigate through the initial screen to go to the Header screen and from here I am OK to navigate to the Material Assignments screen. But once here, I cannot get the BDC_CURSOR command to take me into the list. Here are the commands I am using. Please let me know what I may try differently.
CA02 Material Assignment - Set position <-- this resets list of materials to correct position
PERFORM bdc_dynpro      USING 'SAPLCZDI'   '1010'.
PERFORM bdc_field       USING 'BDC_CURSOR' 'RC27X-ENTRY_ACT'.

PERFORM bdc_field       USING 'RC27X-ENTRY_ACT' c_position.

Thank you for your reply.
I had used SM35 to record. However, I was not aware of the "create program" feature. I had commented out a section from my previous post which I have now added back (latest code below). But it still did not resolve the issue.
When I execute with dismode = 'N', I get back error message "No batch input data for screen SAPLCZDI 1010".
When I execute with dismode = 'E' (only show dynpros when error), it stops at the material selection screen without placing my cursor in the list. I can then MANUALLY click to set the cursor position in the list, MANUALLY click the trashcan, it then uses my BDC command to respond to the popup asking "Do you want to delete", still leaving me at the material selection screen. I can then MANUALLY click the green check (or enter), then it continues with the BDC to go back to the previous screen, and saves. But it still will not place my cursor in the material selection list (SAPLCZDI screen 1010).
Here is code used. It is the second section of code labeled "CA02 Material Assignment - Delete" that is not working.
CA02 Material Assignment - Set position
this code functions to position the desired material to first in screen list

Crontab reboot command not working

Crontab reboot command not working
Greetings
I am new at this so excuse any ignorant mistakes I might be making.
I have a server (MM X.4.9) that I would like to restart every day in order to make sure no programmes are hanging etc. If a program is hanging is should force quit it. Using terminal I have entered the following command:
sudo nano /etc/crontab
Entered password
Than I entered using tab between each sequence:
15 13 1 1 * root reboot
This was a test run and it did not reboot.
Entering
cat /etc/crontab
I got:
# The periodic and atrun jobs have moved to launchd jobs
# See /System/Library/LaunchDaemons
# minute hour mday month wday who command
15 13 1 1 * root reboot
What have I done wrong?
Thanks

Hehe, there you are experimenting with a "reboot" cron command and you are surprised it quit so fast. You are not going to find a "graceful" solution to shutdown dialogs.
MSWord is a Java app, so it is especially important for the command to work that it doesn't get hung up on outer layers of the system. Especially stupid apps that use Java which is not well integrated. I believe Word has a 5 minute autosave, so you should be able to recover most of your document.
This reboot command should be running around 2AM, when the average webserver has minimum traffic. If you feel the need to reboot during busier times of the day, I'd suggest you look at what's causing your applications to crash.

Set Stroke weight for a frame not working in CS4.

Hi All,
How to set Stroke weight for a frame.
I tried using CreateStrokeWeightCommand of IGraphicAttributeUtils, but its not working in CS4.
Regards,
Jasmine
Message was edited by: Jasmine_Shaikh

Hi All,
CreateStrokeWeightCommand of IGraphicAttributeUtils works only when if the frame has some stroke weight already applied to it.
So do i need to set something else before using CreateStrokeWeightCommand to make it work programatically on a frame with no stroke weight.

CS3 Extension that initializes a JS-Object during startup is not working in CS4

Here is a simple Extension that works fine in DW CS3 and doesn't work in DW CS4 (trial version):
The File myObj_Startup.htm was placed in Folder Configuration/Startup. It initializes a quite simple Javascript-Object during Startup of DW.
Content of myObj_Startup.html:

<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>beim Öffnen</TITLE>
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="javascript">
myObj =
     showMsg : function (msg)
         alert(msg);
function onOpen()
   myObj.showMsg("startup");
// SCRIPT ENDE
</SCRIPT>
</HEAD>
<BODY onLoad="onOpen();">
</BODY>
</HTML>
Besides this, an additional menuitem was defined in menus.xml to use the JS-object myObj:
<menu mmstring:name="menus/DWMenu_File" id="DWMenu_File">
        <menuitem name="Test" command="myObj.showMsg('Testing');" enabled="true" domRequired="false" id="DWMenu_File_SIEMENSTEST" />
        <menuitem mmstring:name="menus/DWMenu_File_New" key="Cmd+N" command="dw.newDocument()" enabled="true" domRequired="false" id="DWMenu_File_New" />
With Dreamweaver CS3 everything works out fine: I get a Alert-message: "startup" during Startup and when I'm clicking Menu->File->Test I get a Alert-message: "Testing".
With Dreamweaver CS4 (trial version) I get a message: "startup" as well but when I'm clicking Menu->File->Test I get no message.
Instead I get a Logfile "C:\Documents and Settings\user\Application Data\Adobe\Dreamweaver CS4\en_US\Configuration\Logs\DW JavaScript.log" telling me:
   JS Error:
       myObj is not defined
       filename:
       lineno: 0
       While executing DWMenu_File_TEST command in menus.xml, the following JavaScript error(s) occurred:
       ReferenceError: myObj is not defined
Why is this simple extension working in DW CS3 and not working in DW CS4?
Did they change the treatment of JS-objects initialized during startup?
Is the object out of scope?
Are such extensions not working in trial versions of DW CS4?
I cannot explain this behavior - please help!

Hi,
I have an similar problem and couldnt find an workaround for the problem.
When i add an new menu item to the menus.xml file, the menu item shows up, but my custom command (simple alert) wont trigger.
Can somebody please help?

16 bits not working in CS4 - 8 bits is OK

I have 3 ways that Photoshop CS4 is not working in 16 bit mode.
1. If I attempt to use Image->Mode to change an 8 bit image to a 16 bit image Photoshop crashes.
2. If I open a raw file using Camera Raw, and then click the open image button in Camera Raw, the image opens in Photoshop if I have Camera Raw in 8 bit mode, but Photoshop crashes if I have Camera Raw in 16 bit mode.
3. An export from Lightroom 2.2 (using command-E in Lightroom) now crashes Photoshop.
I'm sure the problem is with Photoshop, not the files because the problem manifests itself with raw files from at least 3 different cameras.
I'm running on Mac OS-X 1.4.11 with 4G of RAM.
Any ideas why the 16 bit mode would stop working?

Profiles is the first place I would look. Move all unnecessary profiles to an unusable location and then see what happens. If that allows 16-bit image to open then you can put them a few at a time and see if you can find the corrupt one. Don't rule out the monitor profile.
If it is not any profiles, then move PS preference files out of the user preference folder. You may have already done this.
If none of this works then create a new user and see what happen when running from that account.

Suddenly won't boot, start up commands not working... am I out of luck?

Funny, this is my first mac being a hardcore and longtime PC user as my "test" mac... everything works perfectly... of course until 12 days after my warranty is up...
This morning on waking up my mac to turn on some music in iTunes, i click on the iTunes window to bring it into focus. It suddenly closes and dissapears, on returning to the shortcut bar (the tray at the bottom for programs, i don't know what mac users call it) and click on iTunes ot relaunch it after its crash/dissapearance, the task tray then decides to suddenly dissapear/crash (don't know which, it's like a crash but best described as a vanishing act as it doesn't lag or churn before dying, just vanishes).
Possibly related to this issue, not long ago my iChat stopped working, whenever i launched it, it would stay open for a couple seconds and automatically closed. I could sit there all day clicking it, it would open, 2 seconds later, close. I gave up on that. I gave up on that a week ago.
Shortly after my iTunes dissapeared/crash and then after the program tray also dissapearing. my mac mini reboots. Except it's stuck on the screen with the mac apple in the middle of the screen with the moving (yes it's moving) pinwheel on the bottom center of the screen. I let it sit there for a long while... 15 minutes pass nothing happens.
I try rebooting... same thing happens.
I'm go on my PC (Which i'm now typing from) and start searching for solutions. apple support pages suggest I try safe mode with shift.
SAFE MODE: Won't work. I tried pushing both shift buttons on my keyboard at different times (before the start up tone, immediately after the beggining of the start up tone, and after the start up tone finishes) all that happens is, I get the same pinwheel/apple screen that is "loading" (according to the pinwheel) forever.
I went to forums, read up on other different commands like holding down "X" or option command P+R.... X does the same as the not-working safe mode... option command P+R continually reboots the computer.
And in the end I'm still at square one. thouroughly frustrated. wishing my mac mini was a PC (as i've never had a PC problem I can't fix) Ironic experience... PCs, break often, easily fixed, no support needed.... Macs: rarely break, when they do, support needed, but support from apple expires 12 days ago, not easily fixed... and now I think i'm screwed out of the 700$+ i payed for this POS and I've lost my whole iTunes library, all the CDs i've loaded onto it, and all the music and TV shows i've purchased from the apple music store. Good game, apple takes a bunch of money, refuses to support my product which is now dead (had a similar situation with an iPod I had bought for my girlfriend).
My only hope is... I know mac users have a happy helpful community and always band together to help fellow mac users, something the PC world doesn't as-cohsively have. So...
Help me Obi-Wan Kenobi... you guys are my last and only hope.
Thanks in advance.

Hi, John. Welcome to the Discussions.
1. You wrote: "I get the same pinwheel/apple screen that is "loading" (according to the pinwheel) forever"The "pinwheel" is known as a "spinning gear progress indicator."
This, combined with the other issues you've reported, sounds like problems with the hard drive. I suggest you begin troubleshooting using the Procedure specified in my "Resolving Disk, Permission, and Cache Corruption" FAQ. Perform the steps therein in the order specified.
2. You wrote: "...the shortcut bar (the tray at the bottom for programs, i don't know what mac users call it)"It's called the Dock. See "Mac OS X: About the Dock."
3. You wrote: "...this is my first mac..."My "Learning About Mac OS X" FAQ has a number of resources that you will find helpful including books, online training, and more.
4. You wrote: "...Macs: rarely break, when they do, support needed, but support from apple expires 12 days ago, not easily fixed..."You should have bought the AppleCare Protection Plan (ACPP) before your warranty expired. The ACPP provides a two-year extension on the warranty and three years of telephone support.
PS: Word to the Wise: watch the language. I appreciate your frustration, but don't let it into your posts. These forums are "family friendly" and a good way to get banned from them is to rant, use profanity (including profane abbreviations), etc. What passes for "acceptable behavior" on most PC/Windows forums is not tolerated here.
Good luck!
