What software is used to make interactive children's e-books and apps?

Hey there! I'm new to the forum and working my way through each Adobe product.
I'm just starting with Flash and wondered if it is the software resposible for making ebooks like this one:

I am a children's book illustrator/writer and I want to publish my own work online. What software do I need?
Thanks in advance!!!
Cheers,

i dislike x-code/obj-c but that's the most direct way to build iOS apps. but if obj-c seems easy enough for you, that would be the way to go.
because i'm so much more comfortable with every other language i've encountered i would look at appcelerator's titanium and flash before i went back to x-code.

Is there a way to find out what computer was used to make an order

I found some charges on my account that I did not make assuming that it was either my 14 year old son or soon to be ex-husband, is there a way to tell what computer was used to make the order?

It's highly doubtful there's a general problem caused by that update, or the forums would be full of similar posts. More likely, it's specific to your setup somehow.
Have you Restarted your Mac lately? If not, that's always worth a try.
Then, make sure there isn't a problem with the file system on your internal HD. Verify it, per #6 in [Formatting, Partitioning, Verifying, and Repairing Disks|http://web.me.com/pondini/AppleTips/DU.html] (or use the link in *User Tips* at the top of the +Using Snow Leopard+ forum).
If that's ok, then as GfulDedFan says, run +*Repair Disk Permissions,+* per #5 there.
If that doesn't help, try connecting to your router via Ethernet cable instead of wireless, to rule out interference problems.
If you have the same results via Ethernet, you can make an appointment at the Genius Bar of your nearest Apple Store: http://www.apple.com/retail/geniusbar/
Or call AppleCare at: (800) APL-CARE (800-275-2273)

What software is used to develop complex programs like 'Adobe InDesign'?

I want to find out:
What software is used to develop complex programs like 'Adobe InDesign'?
Thanks.

Just to expand a bit for anyone who is interested:
Virtually all commercial software like InDesign, Photoshop, etc., is written these days in C or C++. That's not so much because C is such a vastly better language than anything else, it's more because in its advent it was vastly better than anything else at the time, and as a result, all software programmers know C by default. And once you have the beginnings of a codebase in C and a pool of software engineers who all know C, there is little reason to rewrite your code in some other language from scratch.
Your question about software pertains more to the IDE that is used to write the code. That will obviously vary from one company to another and could be as simple as a plain text editor coupled with a command-line C compiler, to any number of commercial IDEs that all basically accomplish the same thing. For a long time in the elder days, virtually all code development on the Mac was done with CodeWarrior, but these days practically everyone on the Mac just uses Apple's own Xcode environment. For Windows development, the two real biggies are either Microsoft's Visual Studio (probably 90% of all Windows development is done using this IDE) and to a lesser degree, C++Builder, formerly owned by Borland but now by Embarcadero.
When building the code into an executable package, the underlying compiler that most commercial software developers use is Intel's own compiler. The IDEs above all include their own free compilers; Intel's is a commercial product that is more finely tuned for Intel processors and produces cleaner machine code. On the Mac, Apple just uses GCC, a free open-source compiler that has been developed and used for many years by the Unix and Linux community.

Modified Files on FCPX... Random files in event folder(that I used to make a multicam clip) become modified and unusable. Is there anything i can do to prevent this?

Since I upgraded to Mavericks, every time I create a multicam clip on FCPX, random files(that were used to make the multicam clip) become modified and unusable(in High Quality). Is there anything I can do to prevent this?
I've tried transcoding, creating proxy media, creating optimized media, plus I've tried none of the above. Thing is, no matter what I do, it still happens(to random files) "after" I make the multicam clip. Is there a setting or something that was accidentally enabled by me or the upgrade?
BTW: Everything seems to work fine when 'playback' is set to proxy. The problem is when I'm ready to export and switch 'playback' to High Quality.

I had this same issue! But fixed it by going into the finder, finding the event, and delted the files out of the "High Quality Media." My project then refreshed to normal and no red modified file slides. The cool part: I din't even shut fcpx down to mess with the files in the finder. It all worked like a charm.
Good luck!

My iphone has been lost in spain what can I do besides make a complaint to the police and lock it with the located iphone ?

my iphone has been lost in spain what can I do besides make a complaint to the police and lock it with the located iphone ?

The only way to locate/disable/erase any lost/stolen iPhone/iPod Touch is through Find My Phone or a similar app. However, this requires that Find My Phone be setup/activated, on your phone, before it was lost/stolen. You would then login at iCloud.com & try to locate it. This requires the phone be turned on & have an Internet connection. There is no other way to locate a lost/stolen iPhone. Apple can't/won't help you, nor will your carrier. Report the loss to the Police, your carrier & Insurance company. Change all of your passwords.
If your carrier offers Blacklisting & they Blacklist the phone, it will be unusable as a phone.
If locked with a passcode, all a thief or whoever finds it has to do is force the phone into recovery mode & restore it. While this deletes all data on the phone, it also removes the passcode so the phone can then be used as a phone or touch.

I have alot of loose photos at home (old) and I would love to make a bunch of iphoto books and make the pages like whole page collages? How do I get my photos into iphoto in order to do this? Can I make a DVD at the drugstore and add them to iphoto?

You can make the collages easily if you have iWork. Just open a letter sized page in landscape mode and drag the photos onto the page, rotate and postiion as necessary. Then do a Print ➙ PDF ➙ Save PDF to iPhoto to get a 200 dpi jpeg version of the Pages page into iPhoto. From there you can add it to your book and use a blank page with the option to have an image as the backbround.
If you have a 3rd party image editor that supports layers you can create the collage with it.

Will re-setting my Iphone make me loose all my pictures and apps

Will re-setting my husbands i-phone make it loose all the pictures and apps ? Also on my husbands phone he has an old email address that is no longer active and cannot access the email account to get the reset password when apple emails it. Does re-setting the i-phone enable him to change his apple id and password ?

Then tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings. This will clear everything in settings of the prior user so he can set it up as a "new" user. No apps are deleted nor is iOS. However, apps you have purchased under your Apple ID will not be upgradeable under his Apple ID. They will continue to work, however. If you have your own separate device, then each of you needs a separate Apple ID or you will be getting each other's mail, iCloud syncs, etc. If you use the same computer you should each have your own separate user account.

What can I use to make a decent quality QTVR movie under OS X?

I made a Quicktime VR movie some years ago of my computer room using Apple's Quicktime VR Studio v1.0 under Classic on my G5. I had to use my OLD QuickTake 200 (640x480) camera, since it was a preset in that app and I could not get focal length, etc. right corresponding to my "real" camera.
http://www.bytecellar.com/qtvr.html
I'd like to take an updated set of pics and make a rather higher resolution QTVR of the room, but I don't know what app to use. All my Macs are Intel-based now. What is the modern app to use to make a QTVR? This inspired me:
http://www.airbus.com/en/aircraftfamilies/cabinshowroom/360_degreesviews/ACJ.htm
What did they use for that?
Ideally I would use a tool that generates a perspective-correct QTVR-style movie that ran in Flash, but I can't find any such tools to do that for less than thousands of $$. Thanks.

Is the source file but QT Pro doesn't show what software created it.
It appears QTVR has been abandoned by Apple so I guess your search for software should start by inquires to those that still create content.
It used to be a very popular method of Web page "interactivity" and many camera manufacturers included software to create them.

What software is used for editing in industry?

I am new, if i to look for video editing job what software should i study? Its only about what used most common now so more chances to find decent job.

Personally I trained on FCP in a post production company and then moved onto Avid when I started working in Broadcast TV. As has been pointed out, it's the editor who makes the edit, not the software. However, personally I reckon it would be easier to first learn on Avid and move onto FCP. I found doing it the other way around was very frustrating. FCP handles effects, graphics and audio better than Avid. It's also more flexible in general as an editing tool. More and more, I see companies changing from Avid to FCP (probably cost-driven of course as well).
Don't get overwhelmed by the amount of softwares to learn. Start off with an editing software and you'll pick up the others as required. Once you're good with one, the others seem a lot less daunting.
Best of luck.

Does anyone know what software was used for Mac Welcome Video?

As you may remember when you turned your mac on for the first time, a ver neat welcome video played with upbeat music. Well I just wanted to know if anybody knew what program(s) was used to make it. If you know or have any idea please tell me. Thanks!

Hi and welcome to discussions. I tried to find something about it, but was not successful. I would guess though that this has been made using some of Apple's own software, everything else would not really make sense. And there actually is one tool in the portfolio capable of creating something like that: Motion. So, as an educated guess, I would say that's the one.

Formatting External Harddrive. What software to use?

I have an external harddrive, a ATA RAID drive, 600gb that I use for video editing. It is connected through a SCSI connection. Basically, it was having problems when I captured video, it would drop sync. So I am trying to format the harddrive to see if that will fix the problems. I will also use Disk Warrior on it to make sure that the disks are not bad. What software should I use to format the harddrive. I did an erase using the disk utility feature on the computer, but is there any other program I need to use. All of my files have been transfered to backup, so the RAID is cleaned from important files.

You can also use Disk Utility to format your drive, whether you want to partition it back out or keep it as a RAID.
See here:

Good luck, and be sure to award points!

What program was used to make this video? Is it After Effects?

I thought that this clip was funny: http://www.clipaday.com/videos/mccain-drums.
I want to make something similar for my brother, but I have no idea which program was used to make this.
I have the full Adobe CS3 Suite on my computer, including After Effects. I use Photoshop, InDesign, and Illustrator regularly for my job.
I want to try to monkey around with the video software at an amateur level. But before I buy any tutorials, I need to know what program to buy the tutorial for!!
Thanks for any responses.

While the clip may not necessarily have been done in AE, you can achieve
these results. Careful masking along with good keyframing of the
movement properties will do it. There are other ways, but while this
might not be the fastest, would be the simplest and would provide a good
learning experience for someone starting out.

How can I tell what took someone used to make a flash...

When I'm out surfing around I come across Flash that I'd love
to make a one of. For example I like to do photography and I see a
Flash window that has thumbs across the bottom and a larger picture
on top, and then if you click on one of them you get a much larger
pictures, I looked at the source for the page, but I can't see any
clue as to what tool make that Flash...
If I like what someone has created in Flash, how can I figure
out how they made it?
Thanks

I don't have problems with many things, but being called a
THIEF is one of them.
I did not say that I am helping the community move forward by
decompiling others work.
I did say that the community CAN move forward FASTER when
people stop getting hung up on the idea that their code is
something SACRED.
If you develop something new that has never been done before,
then you have something that you can protect.
If you want to see how other people did it, so that you can
better understand the different methods that can be used to do that
one thing, you are not stealing.
I know many people that take the same stance that I do.
People that look at code to understand it. Most of the things I can
do today because I looked at other peoples code. I didn't copy it,
I took hints from methods and used them to create my own methods.
Sometimes I decompile something, knowing how I would do it,
to see how that person did it. If they have any hints at better
methods that I could use to make my code faster, better. To say
that the majority of people steal is to take the standard American
view on the world. Americans tend to believe that everyone else is
a thief, a crook, whose only intent is to do wrong. (I am BTW, an
American, and I am very proud to be an American) If you step back,
and open your views, and your code, you will find a much different
picture painted. The majority of people aren't looking for
something to steal, but they are forced to take methods that people
would consider "stealing" to learn to do the things that they want
to do.
There are many good reasons to look at code, with or without
the permission of the person who wrote it.
In the end, these are my views, and I am not alone in them.
Those are your views, and you are not alone in them. If you lose
respect for me, then you do. I am here to help who I can help with
the knowledge and experience that I have gained over my time as a
web developer. I only entered these forums recently, and therefore
don't have anywhere near as many posts as you do, but that doesn't
make my position any less accurate. The advice I have given people
is correct and true, and I offer up the things that others don't.
Even if you do not believe in using decompilers, decompilers exist,
and have their uses, therefore should be mentioned. In the end, I
lose respect for you, who I have held in VERY high regards since I
entered this forum, because you are closed minded, and unwilling to
offer the full information to people who are asking.
When I create code, I consider it open-source code. I am not
about to try to fool myself into thinking that people can't see the
code if I don't want them to. But why would I not want them to.
Because I spent hours writing it myself. At least, if others see
it, they won't have to spend as much time to get the same effect. I
know that some of these people will take it verbatim to use in
their projects, and not give me credit. But I don't expect credit.
It is a few lines of code, why should I get credit for writing it,
when I am not the first, nor the last, to write the same code.
Please do not respond to this. We both have better things to
do than sit and debate about the merits of open source code, and
learning by looking.

What can I use to make a poster?

Hi, in early 2010, I bought a Macbook Pro and I love it! I was really excited about having software that I could use to make really cool posters and things. The only thing is, as there is no longer comic life, I have nothing to make posters with or do my homework on. Does anyone have any suggestions about software or applications which aren't astronomical in price? I'm only thirteen and I don't have much money. Thank you.

You might want to check out Apple's iWorks. It's 99 Dollars, but you can download and try it for free. one of the programs in iWorks is Pages. It's a word processor and basic layout application. it's very easy to use. And it includes templates for making posters.
Open Office is a free Alternative to word and pages. You can use it to word process, and It can open, and save word files. http://www.openoffice.org/
Pixel Mator, is an alternative to photo shop. You can use it to make posters or edit photos. You can download it for free, but it costs 50 dollars, http://www.pixelmator.com/
A free Alternative to photoshop would be Gimp. It's kind of hard to use in comparison to pages and pixel mator. BUt it can be used to make posters. It can be downloaded at http://www.gimp.org/ .
