What challenges do you face?

Hi All,
As I read through the postings here regarding document management, packaging up files to move them around, user rights problems etc, I wonder if the stuff the company I work for creates might be able to help with some of these challenges...
I work for a company that has a pretty cool system integrating Indesign and Incopy (among other tools) at the core of an architecture for managing assests for print and web publishing. Currently it has been pretty tailored to the Newspaper Industry which is pretty demanding regarding asset management, workflows, audit trails etc...
We are in the process of opening that technology up in a SaaS offering to enable alternate markets to use what we have easily as well. I would really love to hear from this group and incorporate ideas and suggestions to enhance our technology to ensure it has the most value to the community.
Thanks to any and all willing to share your experiences and ideas.
Tony

Hi Barb,
Upgrading old systems can certainly be a challenge!! I totally understand
the comments you make regarding the layout driven aspects of Incopy/Indesign
publishing environments... I do believe there can be advantages when used
the right way with the right technology facilitating the workflow... can you
share your thoughts / experiences?
The company mentioned is Digital Technology International ( www.dtint.com ).
They offer a good system that is flexible and designed for newspaper content
publishing. There are also some pretty interesting hosted system options
offered you might want to take a look at that can help to mitigate
upgrade/system purchase pain points.
If you let me know the area of the country you are in I could point you to
the right sales representative if you like.
Good Luck and thanks for sharing.
Tony Hake

    Hi,
    A couple of problems we've had is Designer setting strict scoping on by default (it you added dynamic properties to JavaScript form objects as the garbage collection changed) and the way we used 'proto' elements (or form objects that show up under "reference nodes" in the hierarchy)
    These blogs might help

  • TS4268 What happens when you cannot turn face time and imessage off because there is no button on your ipad 3

    I have just read the troubleshooting for activating facetime and i message and they say to turn off facetime and imessage but what happns when you dont have that button????

    You can try both of these suggestions, but in the first one, you shouldn't even see the FaceTime app on the screen and I assume that you do see the app on the screen, but try it anyway.
    Settings>General>Restrictions>FaceTime. Make sure that you did not restrict FaceTime.
    Settings>General>Reset>Reset all settings. You will have to enter all of the device settings again in the settings app, but that returns all of you settings to factory condition. It will not delete any data.

  • HT201475 I am currently running OSX 10.6.8 on my MacBook Pro. Can I upgrade straight to Yosemite and if I can what issues will I face?

    I am currently running OSX 10.6.8 on my MacBook Pro. Can I upgrade straight to Yosemite and if I can what issues will I face?

    1. It depends on what Mac model you have. If it's incapable of running Yosemite, installing an intermediate version won't help with that.
    2. You'll lose the ability to run PowerPC software, and some other programs may also be incompatible. If something goes wrong, you might lose data; back your computer up first. There aren't any issues specifically associated with skipping versions.

  • What problems I might face: Mac Pro and RAID on Lion

    I have the following setup:
    1 SSD - for OS X (currently OS X Snow Leopard 10.6.8)
    3 HDD (RAID 0) - two partitions (Documents and Media)
    1 HDD  - with 2 partitions 1st SSD backup, 2nd Documents partition backup
    (all media files from Media partition are backed up to an external 4 HDDs Raid 5 on Rocstor’s ArcticRoc 4T)
    My Documents and Mail folders are soft-linked from SSD to Documents partition on Raid0
    Reading different sourced on the web I found that Lion is doing not very good with RAID, at least created on Snow Leopard even if RAID is not used to boot the OS X Lion from).
    What problems I might face if I:
    upgrade from Snow Leopard to Lion
    do clean install of Mac Os X Lion
    Has anyone tried the OS X Lion in similar setup?
    Any ideas and observations from practical experience are highly appreciated.
    Thank you

    I have an installer since I have my Macbook pro 17” mid 2010 upgraded to Lion few days ago.
    My media files take over 2TB now and therefore I use 3x3TB RAID0 - 6TB for media and 3TB for Documents (Documents, Mail, Music, Downloads)
    My mail is taking 2.25GB of disk space, it is not that much and might be moved to SSD especially if it benefits from it even if I do not really care will I get my email message displayed in 0.2 or 0.02 of second.
    The most important think I would not like to lose are my media files and I would not like to find me in a situation when after I install Lion I have no access to my media nor on my local RAID or an External one (backup). The performance is very important as well and even if RAID works I would not like to find out that the same RAID HDDs on Lion are performing slower….
    I think I will wait few updates of Lion prior to upgrading my MP to it.
    P.S. MPG I guess is mac performance guide, and if yes - I know it. But what AYM is? Google returns me different results for AYM… starting from “Awards for Young Musicians” to “Aerobics, Yoga & More”

  • Nokia, WHAT HAPPENED TO YOU????

    As a long-time Nokia fan, my first smart-phone could’ve only been another Nokia, or so I thought. 5530XM with its new and innovative Symbian 6.0 is the way to the future! What a poor decision! In only two months of ownership, it’s been sent back for repairs already (screen became blank) and wasted hours after hours trying to find solutions to problems like WiFi connectivity and interface manipulation. Seeking solution by phone didn’t help either: the call center personal will speak with you only if you wait at least 30 minutes on hold and another 15 providing all the personal information they can possibly require (it’s like an interrogation!).
    So here’s the latest challenge: what is the best way to update Ovi maps for my 5530XM on a  Win 7 x64 computer. In case you’re not aware, there are 5 (FIVE!!!) different applications that will supposedly help you find the way! So let’s count:
    -    Ovi suite
    -    PC suite
    -    Software updater
    -    Ovi maps downloader
    -    Ovi maps loader
    WHY???? Can somebody just tell me where do I have to go to figure this out? Which one do I need and for what purpose? I already used Ovi suite and maps downloader (according to both these applications I have the latest updates), but I’m having huge difficulties browsing the map (it’s mostly empty!!) and searching for addresses (cannot find them or if I do they in the middle of empty map space!)
    Nokia, WHAT HAPPENED TO YOU????

    To answer your Maps question...
    - PC Suite doesn't help you download Maps, all it contains is a link to the Map Loader application, which has been the main application for installing map data for some years.
    - Nokia Software Update is to update the phone firmware, it has no affect on map data but may install a new version of the Maps Application if the new firmware version has a new Maps version built in.
    - Ovi Maps Updater was to install the 3.01 version of the Maps application, and in doing so deleted old map data and replace it with up to date data after dealign with the app.
    - Ovi Suite will probably eventually replace all of these other tools under one roof, but the others all still exist because not all Nokia phones are yet compatible with Ovi Suite.

  • Two part question 1) what happens if you  sign into messages beta on os x lion 10.7.5 after it expired? does the whole application not work or just imessage? 2) does installing messages beta on os x lion 10.7.5  delete ichat?

    Two part question
    1) what happens if you  sign into messages beta on os x lion 10.7.5 after it expired? does the whole application not work or just imessage? can you stil use AIM, jabbar, google talk, or yahoo?  if you open messages beta does it immediately tell you that messages beta expired?
    2) does installing messages beta on os x lion 10.7.5  delete ichat or just transform ichat into messages beta giving the illusion that ichat is deleted?

    Hi,
    It was never completely clear whether it was just hidden or whether Apple ran a download page for iChat 6.
    As the Download for Messages Beta was separate and "Deleted" iChat it would seem it would be another download for iChat 6.
    iMessages will not function as it is only an Account type within Messages and iChat 6 does not have it.
    Therefore messages on the iPhone will not sync to the Mac. (until you get Mountain Lion and Messages in that OS X version).
    Mountain Lion and it's full version of Messages will not sync the iMessages that have happened in between the 14th December 2012  (end date of Messages beta) and the Install of Mountain Lion if you decide on that route.

  • What functionality are you successfully using in your EO SuperClasses?

    Hi Everyone:
    We are very new to JHeadstart/JDeveloper and have just established the method we are going to use at the Entity Level to convert input to Uppercase by putting the following code into a superclass and extending the .xml files of the entities from EntityImpl to this superclass which we called UWEntityImpl.
    What I am wondering is what other ways is this functionality being used by you more experienced JHeadstart Developers? I am trying not to re-invent the wheel and utilize methods that have worked well for you.
    Of course I can think of toLowerCase, what else are you using?
    Thanks so much in advance.
    Mary

    Example Code:
    package its.sis.BusinessModel.model;
    import oracle.jbo.AttributeDef;
    import oracle.jbo.server.EntityImpl;
    public class UWEntityImpl extends EntityImpl {
    public UWEntityImpl () {
    // This code converts the inputted string to Uppercase in the database.
    // April 27, 2007 mb
    protected void setAttributeInternal(int i, Object object) {
    Object value = object;
    AttributeDef def = getEntityDef().getAttributeDef(i);
    if ("true".equalsIgnoreCase((String)def.getProperty("UPPERCASE"))) {
    if (value != null && value instanceof String) {
    value = ((String)value).toUpperCase();
    super.setAttributeInternal(i, value);
    }

    to)? I was curious because it seems to store them in
    a proprietary format, and before I get into moving
    hundreds more images I thought I would ask. I have
    2-300 gigs of usable space but Aperture seems like it
    could get huge with image adjustments.
    Hi Eric,
    I'm not a pro, but I wanted to clear up one of your issues. Aperture does not store or convert your files in a proprietary format. The image files that you store in the library will remain in their original format and untouched. The "Library" is a Mac OS X entity called a package. A package appears as a single file, but it's an illusion. If you ever needed to extract your image files, you can do so in the Finder (without Aperture) by option-clicking on the "Library" and selecting "Show Package Contents". Now you can navigate the file and folder structure to get at your originals. Of course, a much faster and easier way is to have Aperture export the originals. However, my point was to clear up the "proprietary" structure misunderstanding.
    Also--as was mentioned--each adjustment doesn't create a new image file. Every new version of your original is merely a list of instructions or "recipe" used to apply adjustments to the original to recreate the version for screen and print. This is done dynamically, on the fly. A finished version of the original is never created and saved to a file until you tell it to export a version. Thus, every version is a very small addition to the database. This is very unlike iPhoto, where every new version of a file creates a new image to store...all the more reason to move to Aperture.
    Hope that helps.

  • Buying and item from iTunes, What action do you take in between having chossen an item to purchase and then being able to click on the word BUY. I have clicked on the price as it satates in the tutorial and I get a list of actions such as gift this item

    This question is for anyone who has purchased an item from iTunes.
    What action or actions do you take inbetween having selected the item to be purchased and having the word BUY appear on your screen for you to clic on it?
    I have been told to clic on the price. When I do that this list appears; gift this, add to wish list, tell a friend, copy link, share on Facebook & share on Twitter.
    Should I clic on one of thses or press enter after having clicked on one of these?
    What action do you take inbetween having chossen an item to purchase and being able to see the word BUY?

    Thank you for the answer. Apple support has been working on this question for several days.
    I don't think they see any difference between the two tabs as I didn't think there was any seperation and the arrow was the place to clic on the price.
    What would it take to get your statment added to the iTune tutorial?
    For that matter what would it take to get actual tutorials listed under the heading Tutorials listed at the bottom of most iTunes screens. If you clic on the heading Tutorials at the bottom of iTunes pages it lists ads not tutorials.
    Thanks again for your help.
