Typos

Firstly I want to thank Adobe for providing the FIAW tutorials as a free resource, it is proving invaluable for getting to grips with this software. The accompanying exercise pages though do contain some very bad typos which results in learners spending a huge amount of time trying to track down the errors and correcting them. I am all for encouraging individuals to delve deeper so as to increase their knowledge but correcting mistakes can be frustrating and time consuming, it also gives an impression of a degree of sloppiness on behalf of the presenters.
The videos are fine and very instructive, so I tend to work from them. Sorry if it sounds like a moan because overall I'm really impressed at the way Adobe provides so much tutorial back-up for their products.

If it helps I can provide a list - as a lecturer in subjects related to
multi-media and communication I do get a bit "picky" when it comes to such
things.
Your response serves to impress me more regarding Adobe and the support it
provides.

  • I have an active AppleID that has typo in name so Email can not be verified???? Help

    I changed the Primary email for an appleid. There was a typo in the email address. this makes the appleid waiting for verification. I spent five and a half hours with support before they understood the problem. Once we both were talking about the same thing, we successfully reset the password and I was able to apply updates/upgrades to Apps. I followed supports instructions which is not how I normally update my second appleid apps. Their instructions caused the active support chat session to be terminated and no log was produced. This being my first time with chat support I did not know how to reestablish the connection. I applied all the pending updates to apps. Once that was compile I performed maintenance to the apple and corrected the primary email address. I DID NOT KNOW THAT ALSO CHANGES THE APPLEID. it set status back to waiting for verification. I'm locked out again. Before I spend more time with support, I need to ask other users if they know how to fix this. I think I know a way from everything we did that day, but would like some users to also say how it can be done. The reason it took so long before was support did not believe what I reported as error messages and generated email text. If you have found a way to do this Please    reply.   . I will then have information so hopefully support will listen to me and not take more than a short time to resolve. If no one knows a way to fix this, I will try to identify all apps affected and backup data, delete app and rebuy with my working appleid. Yes I now know the importance and mess created when appleid primary email is change. Thank you in advance.      .

  • How can I correct a typo in my email address when setting up a sync account?

    I was trying to create a "sync" account in Firefox for Android, and typoed when keying in the email address I wanted to use. I realized it at the page where it said that it was going to send me an email for me to confirm. But there's no way to correct the misspelling in the email address. I tried starting over (exiting out of sync), but when I go back into sync, the silly thing keeps going back to the page I was last at in an attempt to continue using the misspelled email address (which, of course, I won't be able respond to--I tried tapping in the box with the misspelled email address, but it doesn't allow me to correct the misspelling)
    I would just like to trash the entire sync setup process and start all over from scratch. How can I do this?

    Hello.
    Do you have any important/needed bookmarks, passwords, or history that you would like to keep? If not, then the easiest way would be to go to android's settings--apps-- and then tap on firefox--and then press "clear data". WARNING: This will reset Firefox to it's default settings, like when it was just installed. This should clear up everything and you should start over from scratch.
    If you need to keep your Firefox profile (a.k.a. bookmarks, history, passwords, etc.) Then please let us know.

  • I have two Apple ids but one was a typo, how do I get rid of it?

    i have two Apple IDS. One was a typo and I cannot get rid of the email. The right email is there, but when I go to update the wrong email shows up, and I do not know the password to it. How do i get rid of it?

    What did you do with the Apple IDs? Did you download content with the bad ID? Apple does not provide a way to merge IDs, so if you did things with the bad ID, the only thing you can do is delete that content and download it with the correct one.

  • How can I find my apple ID name?  I changed it to something with a typo and now I cannot log in.

    I changed the email account from an old email address to a new email address about a month ago.  I couldn't log back into the account, and when I tried to retrive the password (which I did not change) the website said that no apple ID existed under either the old email or the new email. 
    I then made a second apple ID to be able to talk to customer support.  This is my second, empty, worthless ID with no purchases in it, not the one I'm trying to recover.  I emailed apple support and, after a month of her giving me directions on how to change my second, worthless ID around to the username I wanted, I sent her some screen shots showing that this account was empty and NOT the one I wanted help getting back into or changing.  When she fininally understood the problem, she told me to call apple, who told me to email her.  So now I'm here.
    Have I lost every thing I've bought?  Every single app, song, and season pass?  I mean, all I did was change the email address to something with a typo.

    Hi,
    Unfortunately I already tried all kinds of re-installs (the full list is in my original message). The only one remaining is the reinstall of Windows 8 itself, which I would really like to avoid.
    What I find really strange is the time it takes for the above error message to appear. It's like one hour or even more (never measured exactly, I left the computer running).
    What kind of a timeout is that? I would expect that, if ports are really used by some other application, I get the message in less than a minute (seconds, actually). To me this looks like the emulator itself for some reason believes there's a problem with
    some port while in reality there isn't.
    I'll eventually contact Microsoft Support, thanks for the suggestion.

  • Typo in Adobe Acrobat Reader 9/Pro 7

    Didn't know how best to get Adobe's attention to suggest a fix; figured if nothing else at least forum users could get a laugh out of it. I apologize if this has previously been discussed.
    You can access the typo by retrieving the rich text menu (Cntrl + E) and choosing "More." Under the "Paragraph" tab, check out what should say "Indents." It's missing an N.

    You can report that here: https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/mmform/index.cfm?name=wishform
    I bet it wasn't corrected for Acrobat 10.

  • How to change/delete iCloud address, created with typo the first time

    How can I change or delete this, I had a typo when creating this originally and am unable to find a solution.  I understand that an alias can be created, but I would rather just start over.
    I do not use the @me account as a primary apple account, I have a comcast account for that.  The reason this came up is when I wanted to sync notes with iCould, it forced me to create this, then I had a type and was unable to change it since then.

    Unfortunately, you cannot change your .me address once you have created it. The only thing that you can do is use an alias, or create a new Apple ID using the .me address of your choice.

  • Problem in primary key column where user does typo error.

    Hi all,
    I have a primary key in the table that some part of it was the current date. For example if today date is 3rd May then it will contain xxxxxx-0503 (where xxxxxx will be unique for this day). In order save time needed to enter the data, I achieve this by having another (non database) item in the datablock where the user type the xxxxxx part and use a pre-insert trigger to add the '-0503' part to the actual primary key item in the datablock.
    This works well if the user enter the xxxxxx part in the non database item correctly. But the problem show up when the users have typo error in the non database item that break the uniqueness of the primary key. Form as usual will tell us that it cannot insert the item but when I try to fix the error, it will report that records has been inserted before. The only solution is to clear form and retype the xxxxxx part.
    Anyone have any idea on what is the best method to implement this in form? Thanks in advance for your help.

    Marcel,
    I cannot reproduce this in version 10.1.2.2. We did not "fix" this, although changes in the runtime might have fixed this "silently". I suggest you upgrade to 10.1.2.2 and see whether you still get the error.

  • WebUtil_File Function Typo

    The defined function "webutil_file.get_file_separator" is actually misspelled in the software. To use it, you have to misspell it as "webutil_file.get_file_seperator". Will this be corrected in future versions?

    Tis simply the Olde English spelling, however, yes this (and a couple of other typos that I will leave you to discover) has been corrected

  • I have a typo in my icloud email.  How can I reset it?

    I have a typo in my icloud email address.  How can I reset this?

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    If the mistake is in your primary address and it is a me/mac address, then unfortunately you cannot change it. Otherwise:
    Firstly, you need to change your details with Apple,  Start here, change your country if necessary and go to manage your account
    In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your iOS device, you need to delete the account from your iOS device first, then add it back using your updated details. (Settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit "Delete Account")
    Providing you are simply updating your existing details and not changing to another account, when you delete your account, all the data that is synced with iCloud will also be deleted from the device (but not from iCloud), but will be synced back to your device when you login again.
    In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your computer, you need to sign out of the account from your computer first, then sign back in using your updated details. (System Preferences > iCloud, click the sign out button)

  • Is it possible to correct a typo in the menu?

    There's a typo in the text of the menu of a DVD that I created in iDVD. Is it possible to correct this error without redoing the project? An idea that I have in mind would be to make a "dummy" DVD that has the correct menu, copy both DVD's to my hard disk, mix some of the files from one of the DVD's with files from the other DVD, then finally burn this mixture. There are all these VOB files, etc. The question is which (if any) of them corresponds to the menu.
    G5 + Powerbook G4   Mac OS X (10.3.8)  

    Sorry but that won't work. Your video, titles and all, are now one big long MPEG-2 files. There is no way to repair certain parts of a project by editing or moving around the video DVD files.
    You have to fix it in iMovie and reburn it in iDVD. Or live with it.

  • I have created a Apple ID but the e-mail adress is invalid due to a typo. I could purchase apps in the store but now the store is requesting a confirmation (after several month) and I cannot confirm the ID as the e-mail is invalid. What can I do?

    I have a IPAD. During the initialisation I had to submit an Apple ID. I have one, but unfortunately I had a typo in the adress. I could purchase apps with the invalid adress but now (after several month) it is asking for verification. This is not possible as the e-mail is invalid
    What can I do?
    Thanks for your help!!

    The good news is you should be able to get into your Apple ID by answering security questions instead of email at appleid.apple.com. Click the Manage Your Account and then Forgot Your Password links. If you get in you'll see the place to change your primary email address.
    The bad news is there are some issues with Apple ID accounts right now. Some accounts are unable to change their primary email address (Mobile Me accounts in particular), some accounts cannot even log in because Apple has screwed up the security information (for example, I have 2 Apple ID accounts where it tells me my own birthday is invalid).
    So give it a shot.
