Writings, produced by me and some collegues are to be uploaded to some site. This writings are PDF files. When trying to upload an error message apperars, telling this file is NOT an PDF file. In Google Chrome and Opera there is no problem.

Hi H.Barker,
Zou is correct, LabVIEW supports all GIF bit depth images 24bit and below.
Thank you for forwarding the GIF images, I also experienced the same error when trying to import the "logo.gif" image in LabVIEW however I was able to import the image when I opened it in Microsoft Paint and resaved it as a new GIF.
This suggests there is a corruption in the original GIF file generated on the web, for example a "terminiating block" may be missing at the end of the GIF file. LabVIEW is not forgiving of GIF images that do not meet the GIF specification whereas other Windows editors may be, it seems that opening and resaving the GIF file in Microsoft Paint added the missing characters thus allowing for the file to be imported into LabVIEW.
I have attached the working GIF image to this post.
Hopefully this assists with your application H.Barker.
Many Thanks

  • When trying to back up my MBP Retina to a My Passport for Mac, I get the message: "The backup disk does not have ownership enabled."

    I've used disk utility to verify and repair the disk and it checked out fine. I tried running the following commands from the terminal:
    sudo chflags 0 /volumes/*   
    sudo chmod a+rx /volumes/*
    No luck.
    At one point, I did see the "ignore ownership" checkbox was checked, but now it has disappeared from the "more info" window after I unchecked it. Not that it worked while checked.
    Any other ideas?

    Try the following commands from Terminal (/Applications/Terminal) to find the identifier of the volume then change the option. Here's the link that discussed the commands.
    Example
    $ diskutil list
    /dev/disk2
       #:                       TYPE NAME                    SIZE       IDENTIFIER
       0:                            Disk Image             *41.0 MB    disk2
    $ sudo diskutil enableOwnership disk2
    File system user/group ownership enabled

  • Why am I getting the message "project could not be prepared because an error occurred. (File already open with write permission)" when trying to share my imovie to media browser?

    Why am I getting the message "Project could not be prepared because an error occurred. (File already open with write permission.) when trying to
    share to the media browser?   I have done this many times before and never got this message.  This is very frustrating.  Can anyone help me?

    Hi
    Error -49 opWrErr  File already open with write permission
    Trash the preference files while application is NOT Running.
    Easiest way to find out if this is the problem is by:
    • Create a new User-Account
    • Log out of Your old one and into this
    • Re-try iMovie
    If it now works OK - then 99.9% the problem is iMovie pref. file that needs to be trashed.
    from Karsten Schlüter
    Some users notice on exporting larger projects from within iMovie that this operation is aborted with an 'error -49'
    This issue occurs only on MacOs machines using 10.7x
    try switching-off the Local Mobile Backup
    in Terminal copy/paste
    sudo tmutil disablelocal

  • Hi Friends... I'm trying to delete a back-up file on mu TC but I get the message "The operation could not be completed because the item "bands" is in use. I'd like to start the Back from scratch, could help me out with deleting the current file?

    Hi Friends...
    I’m trying to delete a back-up file on mu TC but I get the message “The operation could not be completed because the item “bands” is in use. I’d like to start the Back from scratch, could help me out with deleting the current file?

    Sorry, I am very confused. I asked the following question....
    Is this the only backup file on your Mac, or do you have other backup files and data on the Time Capsule disk?
    The answer that you gave was....
    This is the only one
    Now you are saying that....
    But I have lots of other files on Time Capsule! The back up file is only one of them.
    Can you clarify, please?

    Try installing Perian or VLC. Some AVIs require a codec which simply isn't available for Mac OS X.

    I  have a new Mac Pro computer and have migrated my files from my older computer to the new computer. In trying to open a Lightroom catalog on an external hard drive  I keep on getting the message "lightroom cannot use the catalog named " " because it is  not writable and cannot be opened. I have fixed all the "permissions" and yet it will still not open. How do I fix this?

    Hello Forum Members,
    I figured it out. You have to select  the actual logo of the Lightroom catalog and then click on  "get info" and allow what ever your new user name to "read and write". That worked!

    I am currently using Windows 8 and also have Microsoft office installed but those are the only thing on my partitioned space.  I don't know if I installed 32 or 64 version of Windows 8.  Could that be the problem?

    Can you deal with XP not being supported by Apple and Microsoft? no security etc?
    Can you use Windows in a VM instead of natively?
    All the drives other than the one with XP will need to be pulled.
    Always have backups of your system, clone that you can boot from.
    Boot Camp 3.0 was the last supported. You don't need OEM 10.4.6 DVD and your system with EFI and SMC updates (Aug/Sept 2007) may not like it.
    32-bit version of Windows on EFI-32 will only get 1.9GB RAM.
    Installing 64-bit Windows 7 is a bit harder. Vista pre-SP1 64-bit was the best match for install on my 1,1 and that was 2006-2007.
    The new owner needs to deal with this, not you. And really they are better off with a $400 PC instead. Or use a VM.
    the owner should put in a new SSD for the system and $44 buys 4 x 2GB RAM. Together it will run just fine. 500GB SSD now $250 / $135 250GB. Biggest issue is a video card on these.
    The grey screen - you upgraded the graphic card perhaps.
    Unplug everything. Hit power for 5-10 seconds. Reconnect cables for mouse/kb and power, and monitor. You just reset SMC. Yes there is a small button - pull drive #4 and any controller in top slot #4 to see the SMC motherboard reset button but you don't need to.
    Any PCIe cards can also play a role and factor into XP or Windows not working.

    Thank you Bturko in the future only migrate/copy/transfer your documents and settings.  Adobe applications especially are not designed to be transferred from one computer to another.  It is possible to recover however.  I would recommend the following steps:
    Run the uninstaller located in Applications/Utilities/Adobe Installers
    Run the CC Cleaner Tool to ensure complete removal - Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6 - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs5-cleaner-tool-installation-problems.html.
    If you need to download a fresh copy of the installation files they can be downloaded at Download CS3 products.
    Run the installer and reinstall Creative Suite 3.

  • I've tried to download an app that I used to have but deleted. I get the message "You've already purchased this, so it will be downloaded now at no additional charge." BUT it won't download.

    I've tried to download an app that I used to have but deleted. I get the message "You've already purchased this, so it will be downloaded now at no additional charge." BUT it won't download.

    Are you certain you have enough memory left on your device to accommodate the app? Also, are you certain that an iOS 8-compatible version has been released by the developer? If the answer to both questions is "yes", then try downloading it via an iTunes sync.

  • I purchased Adobe Pro XI last February. I have tried to reinstall it and I keep getting the message that I have a valid serial # but no qualifying product. What is the issue?

    I purchased Adobe Pro XI last February. I have tried to reinstall it and I keep getting the message that I have a valid serial # but no qualifying product. What is the issue?

    Hey robertb86490977,
    The reason why you are getting this prompt is because you are trying to install an upgrade version.
    During the upgrade, you will need to enter serial number twice.
    The first time, you need to enter the serial number of the actual product that you have purchased.
    The second time, you need to enter serial number for the previous version that you had.
    So, please enter serial number of the previous version at the second prompt.
    Let me know if you need further assistance.
    Regards,
    Anubha

  • When I attempt to open a PDF file I saved from a website, I get the message "There was an error opening this document. The file is damaged and could not be repaired." Is there any way to correct this problem?

    When I attempt to open a PDF file I saved from a website using Safari, I get the message "There was an error opening this document. The file is damaged and could not be repaired." When I save the same PDF file using FireFox it opens up immediately. Is there any way to correct this problem with Safari?

    Back up all data.
    Triple-click the line of text below to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
    /Library/Internet Plug-ins
    In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder
    from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste into the text box that opens (command-V), then press return.
    From the folder that opens, remove any items that have the letters “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari, and test.
    The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can also interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it as well, if it's present.
    If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
    ~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
    If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again.

  • When I save documents from online I get the message could not open because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damage.  I am using Mac book pro can anyone help me.

    I would save as PDF and when I go to open it is blank and I get the message above. 

    Back up all data before making any changes. Please take each of the following steps until the problem is resolved.
    Step 1
    If Adobe Reader or Acrobat is installed, and the problem is just that you can't print or save PDF's displayed in Safari, you may be able to do so by moving the cursor to the the bottom edge of the page, somewhere near the middle. A black toolbar should appear under the cursor. Click the printer or disk icon.
    Step 2
    There should be a setting in its preferences of the Adobe application such as Display PDF in Browser. I don't use those applications myself, so I can't be more precise. Deselect that setting, if it's selected.
    Step 3
    If you get a message such as ""Adobe Reader blocked for this website," then from the Safari menu bar, select
              Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Security
    and check the box marked
              Allow Plug-ins
    Then click
              Manage Website Settings...
    and make any required changes to the security settings for the Adobe PDF plugin.
    Step 4
    Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C:
    /Library/Internet Plug-ins
    In the Finder, select
              Go ▹ Go to Folder
    from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste into the text box that opens by pressing command-V, then press return.
    From the folder that opens, move to the Trash any items that have "Adobe" or “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari.
    Step 5
    The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it, if it's present. The same goes for a plugin called "iGetter," and perhaps others—I don't have a complete list. Don't remove Silverlight if you use the "Netflix" video-streaming service.
    Step 6
    Do as in Step 4 with this line:
    ~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
    If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari.
