Unable to open CS3 Files from within the application
Good Afternoon
I work as IT Support for company looking after 10 ADOBE Creative Suite 3 end-users.
One of my colleagues is unable to open Illustrator or Photoshop files from within their respective applications, but she is able to open them from outside ok.
I have reinstalled ADOBE CS3 and this appeared to resolve the issue, only for it to return again a day later.
She has no other applications or processes running during her attempt to open a file from within CS3.
She will click on Open and the 'Open File' window will flash up for a split second, then the whole application will be frozen. It is as if the 'Open File' window is there, but isnt there because we cant click on it, but the application thinks it is displaying and so she can not click on anything else. The only way to close the application is to end the process under Task Manager.
While I am sitting here tearing what little amount of hair I have on my head, can anyone point me in the right direction?
Is this a Windows problem or an ADOBE problem do you think?
I look forward to any replies.
Thank you
Hi Bob
Ok...
Opened illustrator but was unable to open the 'Open File' window.
Changed the screen resolution, it suddenly worked!
Changed the screen resolution back to as it was before, it also worked.
What could cause this do you think?
By simply changing the screen resolution and back again, the 'Open File' window displayed itself.
Very bizarre!

Timecapsule - opening files from within an application!!
I have a time capsule... 500Mb
I have an airport extreme with external hard drive - 250 Mb.
Through Finder, I can place files on either of these drives and open them from Finder.
If I open Numbers, or Pages, then try to open any file on Timecapsule, it appears that there are no files
If I open Number, or Pages, then try to open any file on the Airport Extreme external disk - it works!
Simple question really.... why cannot I see or open any file from within an application that resides on Timecapsule?? It's driving me crazy!!!

Unable to open PDF files from my banking statements.
I think almost every dev is on arch-general, so that is the place to contact the group in general. Specific points can probably be emailed to the dev involved, if one is identifiable and if the bug tracker is not a better place (bug reports to my email get ignored).
I think the whole problem here is that there is really no dev in charge of that package. So your emails were probably seen then skipped over by all devs thinking not my problem... (I know that is true for me). Then Andrea noticed an "orphan" package that needed updated and went ahead with it without connecting it to your previous emails, which is unfortunate.
Now our maintainer backend is fixed, hopefully we can get all the orphan packages adopted out, or at least know if we need to bring on new people to maintain them. That way, there should always be someone who information about specific packages should be sent to. -

- AngelThis could be a Launch Services issue. The following article describes how to manually reset Launch Services — the notes at the bottom of the article also provide information about the side effects of deleting each of the files involved:
Resetting Launch Services
If you prefer using a cache cleaning utility instead of following the manual procedure described in the previous article, take a look at this other article for general troubleshooting and cache-cleaning procedures. Actually, you should also verify/repair the startup disk (not just permissions), as described there:
Resolving Disk, Permission, and Cache Corruption
The most appropriate utility for this particular problem probably is Tiger Cache Cleaner, but you may also want to consider other utilities, such as OnyX, or Cache Out X, which are free. Whatever utility you choose, be sure to read this first:
Side effects of System cache cleaning
As an example, this is how you should proceed with OnyX:
1. Quit all applications.
2. Launch OnyX and enter your administrator password.
3. Go to Maintenance > Reset and check LaunchServices database.
4. Un-check any other pre-checked options.
5. Click the Execute button.
6. Restart the computer.
BTW, if you’re running Mac OS X 10.4 (Tiger), as your profile indicates, it would have been more appropriate to discuss this in the Mail & Address Book - Tiger forum. If the discussion applies to both Mail 1.x and Mail 2.x, it doesn’t really matter, but it’s difficult to know that in advance. -
Unable to open project files from 2001
I have a .fcp file and a .fcm file from 2001 that I am unable to get FCP 5 to recognize. For the .fcp it gives the error "Unable to open project file." For the .fcm it says "File error: Wrong type." I don't remember which version of FCP they were made on (perhaps even FCP 1?) but I'm really worried about not being able to open them anymore. Any suggestions, please?
Oh no! I am really in trouble, because this is a very complex project with about a million cuts. What you're basically saying is I should just start over? What other options to I have? There must be some way to convert an old FCP file, no?

Opening Files from within an application

How to create Default Schema from within the application
Hi friends
I am creating users using the following within my application using this syntax
BEGIN
APEX_UTIL.CREATE_USER
(:P124_USER_ID, :P124_USER_NAME,:P124_USER_FIRST_NAME,:P124_USER_LAST_NAME,' ',:P124_USER_EMAIL_ID,'xxxx');
END;
The default workspace for the user is set as blanks. I would like to set it to be the default workspace as per the current logged in user.
Can you help me with the syntax for this
thank you in advance
LaxmiLaxmi,
The subject of the post is "How to create Default Schema from within the application".
But your question asks how to set the "default workspace" for a newly created user.
Those are different questions and not the ones I think you need answered.
Let me answer this question "How can you set the default schema for an account when creating the account and set it to the same value used for the default schema attribute of the administrator account used to authenticate to the currently running application?".
In the apex_util.create_user call use named parameter notation and fetch the information about the currently logged-in user first, e.g.,declare
l_workspace varchar2(256);
l_user_name varchar2(256);
l_first_name varchar2(256);
l_last_name varchar2(256);
l_web_password varchar2(256);
l_email_address varchar2(256);
l_start_date varchar2(256);
l_end_date varchar2(256);
l_employee_id varchar2(256);
l_allow_access_to_schemas varchar2(256);
l_person_type varchar2(256);
l_default_schema varchar2(256);
l_groups varchar2(256);
l_developer_role varchar2(256);
l_description varchar2(256);
begin
apex_util.fetch_user (
p_user_id => apex_util.get_current_user_id,
p_workspace => l_workspace,
p_user_name => l_user_name,
p_first_name => l_first_name,
p_last_name => l_last_name,
p_web_password => l_web_password,
p_email_address => l_email_address,
p_start_date => l_start_date,
p_end_date => l_end_date,
p_employee_id => l_employee_id,
p_allow_access_to_schemas => l_allow_access_to_schemas,
p_person_type => l_person_type,
p_default_schema => l_default_schema,
p_groups => l_groups,
p_developer_role => l_developer_role,
p_description => l_description);
apex_util.create_user(
p_user_id => :P124_USER_ID,
p_user_name => :P124_USER_NAME,
p_first_name => :P124_USER_FIRST_NAME,
p_last_name => :P124_USER_LAST_NAME,
p_email_address => :P124_USER_EMAIL_ID,
p_web_password => 'xxxx',
p_default_schema => l_default_schema);

I can not purchase from within the application clash of clans where necessary to answer the security questions that forgot their answers please help thank you
If you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account then you can go to https://appleid.apple.com/ and click 'Manage your Apple ID' on the right-hand side of that page and log into your account. Then click on 'Password and Security' on the left-hand side of that page and on the right-hand side you should see an option to send security question reset info to your rescue email address.
If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer 2 of your questions) then see if this user tip helps : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4551
e.g. you can try contacting iTunes Support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Account Management , and then try Apple ID Account Security
or try ringing Apple in your country and ask to talk to the Accounts Security Team : http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57
When they've been reset you can then use the steps half-way down this page to add a rescue email address for potential future use : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312 -
I am unable to open raw files taken on my Canon Rebel T1i in my version of Photoshop CS3. When I import raw files into Bridge they come up as patches with CR2 on them and when clicked on, a notice comes up stating that Photoshop does not recognize these files. I tried to update my Adobe Camera Raw by downloading version 4.6 from the Adobe Website, but when I clicked on the plus-in, I got another message that Photoshop does not recognize this file. I spoke with a representative from Canon who said that I could not update CS3 and that I should subscribe to the Cloud. I would prefer to use my CS3, if possible. Can anyone advise me what to do?
The T1i was first supported by Camera Raw 5.4 which is only compatible with CS4 and later
Camera Raw plug-in | Supported cameras
Camera Raw-compatible Adobe applications
Some options:
Upgrade to CS6
Join the Cloud
Download the free Adobe DNG converter, convert all T1i Raw files to DNGs then edit the DNGs in CS3

Unable to open project file - from one 6.0.2 to another 6.0.3.
Hi
We're at a time-critical stage of finishing our movie, and we need to get the color-corrected sequence from the post-house to our studio so we can make some picture changes and get it back to them. They can open the project file just fine (it was created in 6.0.2, but they since updated their system to 6.0.3), and we have just updated to 6.0.3 also. Quicktime is 7.4.5 (which matches their version). However, they've FTP'd it to us, and we cannot open it here. FCP gives the error "Unable to open project file". It's not the "older version" message which I've seen before, it just ... fails to open it. Almost as if the file were corrupt. However, the post house can re-download the file from FTP and open it there, so this confuses me. I've also tried the file on a FCP 6.0 system (which I can't update because it's an Avid system locked to a certain version of Quicktime) and the same error message.
Would anyone be willing to test the file and see if they can, at least, open it?
Many thanks.
MattHave them zip the file... Project files via email often don't open if they aren't zipped..

Opening CS3 files from CS6 InDesign
We are looking to upgrade the office from CS3 to CS6 Creative Suite. Can InDesign files from CS3 be opened in straight into CS6? If not, what is the best way to access the CS3 files from CS6?
Can they be opened directly? Yes.
Should they be? Harder to answer.
I've never had a problem with any file I created moving from an old to anew version, but we've seen reports here from other users who found converting CS3 or CS4 files to CS5 or CS5.5 seemed to be OK right up until they failed, often after extensive editing and while trying to export PDF. In general, exporting these same files from the earlier version as .inx or .idml, and opening that in the new version did not fail.
CS6 is too new to have had many similar reports, and I want to stress that these problems are probably isolated and indicate, I suspect, some underlying corruption in the original file (which might have caused failure in the original version at some point, too), but I've persaonally adopted a policy of export from the original for any file that is going to get converted. It isn't worth the risk compared to the short amount of time involved in taking precautions. -
