Where'd the pretty noise go?

I have a Macbook Pro that I bought last week...and whenever I closed the lid(the screen) the speaker's used the make a short noise.
But now I dont hear that noise anymore...how do I get it back?
Thanks
Aakash

I just noticed that noise only works when Yahoo Messenger is running...so I guess thats why it wasnt working...because yahoo messager wasnt running.

Purchased the Photoshop / LightRoom 5 "CC" for $9.99 - where's the serial number(s)? (cross-post)

Title pretty much says it all.
I am new to Creative Cloud - and this forum, etc.
I purchased the $9.99 / month deal that Adobe is offering to new customers, etc.
Downloaded everything that I need to download (I think).
Tried to run Photoshop - but am being asked if I want to start my "trial"
or I have the option to "License This Software"
but where is the Serial Number for Photoshop & LightRoom 5?
I imagine it's right under my nose - but I do not see it anywhere.
The screen which appears (after I sign in) says:
Am I supposed to "Start Trial" or "License This Software"
To make things even more confusing:
I just ran LightRoom 5 for the first time.
There was a serial number automatically inserted in the space provided.
Not sure what's going on - but this is becoming a little overwheling.
I suppose it's the price I must pay for being an old fart!

@ didjunior:
Hi. Sorry, but I don't have any good news for ya.
My issue has been resolved, however - it was due to a lengthy chat I had online with an Adobe Associate.
We were able to get everything running the way 'twas intended,
but there were some hoops of fire with which I had to jump.
Wish I could help....but the only thing I can say is to attempt a "Live Chat"
With the Adobe help team.
Hope you get it smoothed over.
Good luck to you.

Where are the regular maintenance updates?

Most expensive/professional software I own licences for
receives maintenance updates and bug fix patches on a regular
basis. Even with shareware and freeware, the patches and updates
just keep coming. Flash Professional should certainly be no
different, there's more than enough bugs to warrant some fixing.
But what did we get? Nothing! Some measly updates for the Flash
player, that's all. Clearly Adobe/Macromedia cannot be trusted in
this department, they just move on to the next project and leave
users to wrestle with bugs.
A few examples off the top of my head:
- The new smoothing algorithm introduced in Flash 8 is
kaputt. It blurs bitmaps even when they're shown in 1:1 scale,
anti-aliasing intentionally aliased stuff. Clearly there's some
rounding error or something messing with the scale of things. For
example, I used Flash 7 to make document and application icons in
128x128. They fit exactly to the pixel grid and when I exported
them from Flash 7 they were sharp as can be. When I export the same
icons to PNG from Flash 8 at 128x128, using the same source files,
the edges are suddenly blurred. With some trial and error I
discovered that I had to export them in 129x129 in order to make
them look as they did from Flash 7, then crop the picture in
Fireworks to 128x128.
- "Convert Lines to Fills" is a mess. It generates a
completely warped rendition of the selected lines if they overlap.
You have to walk Flash through the process by selecting a few lines
well away from eachother, move them away from the rest, convert to
fills, then repeat this process until you finally get a WYSIWYG
rendition of the lines you wanted to convert.
- Various UI graphics bugs. For example if you drag-select
across a number of layers and frames in the timeline and insert or
delete, leftovers from the black selection rectangle are still
visible in the timeline. You have to minimize/maximize the window
to make it redraw correctly.
- If I enter W/H/X/Y coordinates for an object, say "10.0",
it's because I want exactly 10.0. I don't want Flash to arbitrarily
change it sometimes to 10.1 or 9.9. Sometimes you have to enter it
twice to make it stick.
- Flash 'forgets' parts of audio files in the library. I
import a lot of WAV files to the library, and sometimes a few saves
down the line I discover there are mysterious silent gaps in the
audio. I have to re-import the files again to fill these gaps.
- FlashPaper (it installed correctly on very few computers,
you had to fix it in a DOS prompt, or FlashPaper would just hang
when you try to print). I've also had complaints that my FlashPaper
rendered PDF:s won't open in Mac OS X.
These are just a handful of examples I can think of at the
moment, I know I've stumbled upon dozens more and I'm sure there's
a collective pool of thousands. What I want to know is why
Adobe/Macromedia feels it's OK to not bother with maintenance
updates and fixes for a product of this price and magnitude? It's a
despicable business practice I would expect from shady vaporware
peddlers.

It's only your perspective that "nobody seems to care" that
couldn't be anymore incorrect - I see it
first hand how dedicated and caring the developers of flash
are.
I wont get into a platform war either - but i clearly
remember the MS promotion MS was using
claiming the new "Innovative" features of IE7 - specifically
showcases their new tabbed browsing
feature and popup stopper - FF had that long before them -
hardly innovative.
Vista looks and acts very much like Mac OS - at least on the
surface. It's so blaringly obvious to
me that they must have been studying OSX when they were
deisigning Vista.
Anyway - i dont really care about OS - and your points are
totally valid - I'm a PC user only
because flash always runs better on PC then MAC.
I just think your claims that nobody cares and complacency
within Adobe are ill-founded - I am very
much closer to the people that you are talking about and see
their dedication first hand for years -
unless you are as close or closer, it's hard for me to agree.
But if you feel this way from a users POV - then perhaps
something is wrong on a marketing level or
some other area. Flash 8 was developed by Macromedia - the
next version of flash will be developed
by Adobe - let's hold of on judging them until they come out
with the next version - until then,
complaints of non caring and complacency simply hold no
weight.

Can't get rid of the beeping noise!(SOLVED)

Hey guys, so I can't get rid of the beeping noise of my laptop.
I have an Acer Aspire 722. Every time I plug or unplug the power, it beeps. And the really annoying one, everytime I backspace, it beeps.
I've tried going into alsa and muting beep. I put !pcspkr in modules in rc.conf.
I don't know what else to do?
Help will be extremely appreciated. Thanks.
edit: unrelated but something I want to resolve. I get these debugging messages, and found to get rid of them I have to set loglevel= 3 in grub. How do I do that? (SOLVED)
Also, I'm having an issue with x-org. Every time I try to download it, it says it is missing a file. So I figured maybe it is a mirror problem so I went to change my mirror. Pacman keeps trying to use my old mirror even when my mirrorlist does not have that mirror commented out. I also checked pacman.conf and no mirror is being loaded in there with a server=mirror syntax.
Not sure what is happening?

Download a fresh copy of the master package list from the

each time you use --sysupgrade or -u. Passing two --refresh or -y

Nah, you do need a browser, sorry ;P
You should have some simple text-based (links and elinks) on the CD you used for installation, but they may be a bit intimidating to use if you're new.

You should take it to an Apple store or an AASP (Authorized Apple Service Provider) Carefully inspect the hinge joint and make sure there is no debris that you can see, you can try carefully sliding some sticky tape thru the joint to clear any loose stuff out. But this sounds like there might be more going on here, and the hinge is something that you do not want to fool with.

Where is The "Home" Key in Logc

I am new and fairly inorant, but very enthusiastic about logic, so please forgive this simpple question. Can some please tell me where is the "Home" key in logic? I would like to go back to 1 1 1 1 at any given time by utilizing this key. I am aware that double cliking on the play button in the trasport window will go back to the last positon that I desinted, but that does not help when I need to go to the ver begining. Thanks in advance for your help.
Rockfort

Try 0 on your extended keyboard.
I forget now if I saved that as a key command or if Logic ships that way.
But I am pretty sure Logic ships with 0 as return to song start. If your song starts at 1 1 1 1 then it will return to 1 1 1 1.

Where is the "blur kernel" one click deblur in Photoshop CS6?

Where is the "blur kernel” one click deblur in Photoshop CS6? (Pretty sure it’s not there.)
Is deblur still in development? Or was it killed? Is there any status update on the progress of the deblur function? An overwhelming majority of the information available reference the same October 2011 Adobe Max conference demo.
(Adobe showed off the new deblur prototype at its Adobe Max conference in October during a set of feature sneak peeks...)
The way the feature was described was:
"The prototype feature uses a computer algorithm to analyze how the image was blurred and then creates what Adobe called a "blur kernel." After the kernel is generated, it can show you information such as what the motion trajectory of the camera was while the shutter was open -- causing the blur in the first place. The next step is to simply hit a "restore sharp image" button and the photograph is fixed."
It was cited by some sources as being an upcoming Photoshop CS6 feature while other sources were more vague with statements resembling "It's not clear if or when the new unblur feature will make it into a future version of Photoshop, as the company warned all sneak peek features were just prototypes with no concrete product plans."
Where is the latest with the Adobe Photoshop "blur kernel” and the Adobe Photoshop one click deblur feature?

one of the things I think about as an engineer is that in order for something like this to work, you should probably start with manuals adjustments to processing the the out-of-focus blur first. after you have finished with this, you can do the motion blur. I would have to really think hard about it to see if there is an algorithm such as a kernel or something to convert an image into a path. one problem is you are stuck with the image boundaries. if they weren't there, things would be so much easier (but it would also take infinitely long to process). the image boundaries MIGHT skew the kernel, depending on how you handle the boundaries (for example, usually you just assume those values are black or 0's, or you may choose a 50% gray, whatever fits best with the kernel you are working with).
adobe may be on to something there, but they only had half of the equation with the idea.
I used to tinker with image processing many yarns ago back for fun in BASICA/GWBASIC.
if you have the kernel
[-2 0 2]
[-2 0 2]
[-2 0 2]
which amplifies vertical lines, you would want to handle the boundaries by processing them as 0's.
NOTE TO ADOBE: it might start getting into Machine Vision technology when you start doing the path recognition. or AI.
if you can get the imge into a path kernel, it's essentially a bitmap of a path. you can trace that path using akima spline curves. (will lose 1-2 samples off each end), but the tracing program might just exist out there somewhere. just google "bitmap to akima spline curve". and akima spline curve has all the
points along its path, unlike a bezier. I like akima spline curves, I have been trying to get ps engineers to use them for a while for good reason. this is one of them.
there are also cubic splines as an alternative.
chances are that the curve will have rounded corners due to the weight of the camera.
now that you have the path,it's simply a matter of taking samples along the curve wherever you want. (usually in an array which you can linearly inerpolate across the points in the array for simplicity if you want)

Where is the config file for taging spam?

I've had my server setup at home for a couple days. I used to use SuSE. My spam is now pretty much out of control where it wasn't before.
I have my settings right now set for 2 hits to delete as spam. That's not really helping. Where are the spamassassin tests located? On my SuSE box I was able to look at all the tests and change the tagging value. I can't find it here. I can't find the user prefs either. After outputting the config, I see user_prefs are listed under ~./spamassassin/user_prefs. I take it that's root's setup?
Thanks,
Tom

On OS X Server, spamassassin is called by amavisd which runs as user _amavisd
It is simplest to use the common location:
/etc/mail/spamassassin
In there you can add rules, change scores, etc.
By editing /etc/amavisd.conf, you can change certain behaviours. For more info see here: http://www200.pair.com/mecham/spam/amavisd-settings.html
That said, first make sure Postfix blocks as much as possible before handing messages to the content filter. For a guide see here: Frontline spam defense for Mac OS X Server

Where is the best place to sell my old MacBook Pro?

I have a 2008 MacBook Pro 2.4Ghz which is in need of a new logic board due to a faulty graphics card. Also in need of a new battery. Everything else is in perfect working order.
Is there a market for spare parts for this model?
Where is the best place to list/sell?
What price should I be happy with?
Cheers.

Unfortunatly with that machine, logicboard/graphics problems are pretty common. Because of that, the only parts that are really in demand are working logicboards. The rest of it isn't in very high demand at all.

Where is the best place to put cfqueries?

Where is the best place to put cfqueries, in the <head> </head> or before the html tag? Thanks

So before the doctype tag? Thanks
I just doesn't really matter. the doctype, head, body, etc only matter to the browser; the CF tags only matter to CF. The browser doesn't see the CFML, and CF doesn't care about the mark-up one bit: it just ignores it.
The best place - as I said - is not in the same file at all. But if you insist on slapping your business logic in with your display logic, then the only consideration is that you need to set your variables before you use them. Other than that: it simply doesn't matter.
One consideration you might make is - even if it's all thrown into the same one file - at least separate the file itself into sections: have all your CFML code that gets your data at the top, and try to limit the CFML you have mixed in with the mark-up, eg: limit it to stuff like loops and conditionals.
But, seriously, separate your concerns. Dan's pretty much just wrong when he said it's over-engineering. It's just sloppy to not to write tidy, well-maintained, well-organised code.

Where in the world is this coming from?

I've recently been contracted to build an application for my employer. Great. The project is really straight forward and its going along nicely ... all except for this simple bit here.
I decided to use a new "big & bad" IDE (Netbeans 5.5) seeing as how this was pretty GUI intensive. I don't like to have to sit down and calculate all of those dimensions and placements by hand. So ... am using the IDE.
Pasted below is the initComponents() method of my program where my JTree (jTree1) is instantiated. It has an empty constructor - and nothing has been added to it ... so I'm curious as to how this is happening:
The problem:
I've reviewed the code over and over again. I can't find anywhere where a default dataset is being assigned to the JTree. Anywhere. However, when I go to view my form - I have the following information in the tree:
JTree
|
Colors
|- blue
|- violet
|- red
|- yellow
|
Sports
|- basketball
|- soccer
|- football
|- hockey
|
Food
|- hotdogs
|- pizza
|- ravioli
|- bananas
Where in the name of Satan's assshole is this coming from?

Myeh - I'm not really in any rush. I work from home as a private contractor. I tell you - it is so much more ... relaxed? ... than when I was working for my previous employer. My current employer wants the product finished by June. Thats when they have a big push of students coming in and want the new software ready for them. So, I've got a while - and it definitely wont take me that long to complete. I just figured that there must be something to the fuss about IDEs and how they simplify things. And, tonight, I found that that is a load of horseshit.
(Just so you know - there is a downside to working for yourself... you get weird requests from people like the following ...)
I had a guy once ask me to write an application for his son who is obsessed with the television show Alias. He said he wanted a program that did exactly what this Alias program did on the show in a particular episode. When asked if I was familiar with it, I said no. So what does this goofball do? He goes and buys the show on DVD and brings it to me. We watch it - he takes me to the point in the show and says "That! Right there! That's what he wants!!"
Astonished (and somewhat dumbfounded) I ask him, "You're aware of the fact that I am not going to be capable of writing an application that remotely logs into a secret NSA super-computer via satellite ...... right?" He then proceeded to tell me to make it look like it does. Just make up all sorts of stuff - just as long as it looks the same.
The worst part .... that wasn't the only request of the type that I've received. (Granted, the others were by kids - usually 14 or 15 that thought that I'd do it for 10 or so bucks.) Because I obviously have time to waste on such things ...

Where is the FC Studio plug ins folder?

Hi,
Basic question here. I am trying to install a few new noise reduction filters in Final Cut since Compressor is quickly dying before my eyes!
Where in the world is the Final Cut Studio plug ins folder? It used to be Library - App Support - Final Cut Pro - Plug Ins, but in the new Final Cut Studio world, it is in a different spot.
Does anyone know where it is? Thanks!

Quick tip:
Library/somewhere/somewhere else -is always the main Library directory at the top level of your hard drive.
˜/Library or, your name/Library is the directory specific to your user space.
* This is information is for your disambiguation. We hope that you feel disambiguated.

Where's the Incentive to Renew/Upgrade???

Well..I just hit my renew every two date (program cancelled going forward) and was offered $50.00 towards an upgrade on my Primary Line, and another two years, and nothing for the second Line to upgrade. ARE YOU KIDDING ME!
What's the point? Where's the Incentive? The prices are the same, as if I were starting from scratch... The free phones are a joke (leftover discontinued models) Way to Go Verizon!

JVozz wrote:
Sounds like you have been drinking the Cool-Aid
The average discount that Verizon offers on smartphones is over $400, that seems like a pretty hefty discount in return for signing a 2 year contract. If you disagree, there are a variety of other options for you out there, including going to another carrier, going to prepaid, purchasing a used phone (and not signing a contract at all), or paying full retail and having maximum flexibility.
If Verizon's discounts aren't big enough for you, go elsewhere... Not sure what else you want anyone to tell you.

I imagine it's right under my nose - but I do not see it anywhere.
Thanks,
Scott

Ok, it looks like I couldn't contact the servers, but the Adobe application did not tell me anything: no feedback. I have gone into C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts and removed all the firewall IP filters, and photoshop opens. You can then revert the hosts file to get all your anti-spam and adblocking filters and photoshop still opens. To be clear, Adobe seems to be using some special ip address to tell your app that it's licensed, this address could be on any number of spam blacklists (because I guess it's used to phone hime about app usage and sell you stuff). So check your hosts file, OR check your work firewall / router.
@Adobe, help people out, just say 'unable to contact license servers'. When your infrastructure fails, and paying customers mysteriously get trial software, it makes Creative Cloud look broken, and frustrates the people you want to give you money.

Where'd the pretty noise go?
