Why are PS3 controllers still $55?

With the new PS4 system out now, you'd think that the prices on PS3 controllers would drop but no, they're still 55 bucks! There's only a $5 difference between the DS3 and DS4 controllers ($60) so who would buy a controller that's been out for 6 years now for full price anymore unless they really need it?
Sony, y u no lower DS3 prices?!

Why are animated GIFs still broken?

https://discussions.apple.com/thread/1229922 <-- this
'nuff said, this has been a problem ever since Preview lost its ability to animate GIFs. It may be a WebKit problem (i.e. yeah, Apple, just go ahead and let yourself off the hook...right), but regardless, how come it has not been addressed sooner? Safari chokes after about 4 frames of animation; if the GIF loops, it starts over fresh, but it chokes again.
I am using 10.5.8, but I am aware this is still a problem for all 10.6 OSes and iOSes. I don't know about Safari for Windows; not relevant at the moment.
Why is this still a problem after three-and-a-half years of Safari development have passed?

Well, here are the issues I have run into.
1) Gifs load half way and then animate on the base but not on the top.
2) Gifs animate waaaaaaay too fast.
I have found no solution for the 1st issue, and it does not always occur.
As for the second one it has to do with browsers all reading the "0 delay" setting of the animation at uniquee speeds. Most round it to 10/100th of a sec, while Safari loads it at 3/100th resulting in a faster images, but a non-standard speed. Which ***** since I am running animations that follow using a set time out only to have safari throw everything off. I think one other browser runs at something like 6/100ths so Safari is not the only one. Faster could be nice if they all got on the same page, but as they are it is pointless. Pretty much meaning if you want an animated gif you have to avoid the "0 delay setting at all costs, and pretty much anything under 1/10th because it will not display the same in many browsers. It could be this fast speed in Safari that is causing the loading and instability issues with sime.

Collect files question. Why are the paths still the same?

So I collected all of my files from a project and the new project points to all of my old paths. So is there a way to collect the files and have the project point to the new files that were collected? Not sure why they would not be connected. Or am I missing something.....Luckily I had a small project now and replacing the footage is not a big deal, but I have a really big project I'm working on now and it will be pretty time consuming in the future when I access the archived file, to replace all of the missing files. Thanks in advance

I've seen folks belly ache and go on and on about "if you offer this feature, why can't you make it work???", to the point of personal attacks on Adobe support people. To those, I just say "PICK YOUR FREEKIN BATTLES". There are quick and easy workflows that WORK. And that is the point. KEEP WORKING.
So it's just supposed to be understood that this feature flat out doesn't work and we're supposed to be roll over and be elated that we bought a $1000+ package program that touts certain features that in fact don't work? That sounds like the Apple fanboys who still swear by Final Cut Pro X despite it being anything BUT pro. "We don't need Bluray, Steve says so."
I think Adobe either needs to make it work, and work right, or remove the broken feature until they can get it right. What's unreasonable about that? That sounds obvious. If a feature is listed as a function of the program, we, the consumers have a right to expect that feature to work.
That's like telling somone who bought a 4x4 truck to pick his battles and only drive on the interstates in the summer and not venture off road or drive through snow because the four-wheel-drive feature doesn't work... and quit complaining it doesn't work, geez! Keep it on the nice summer highways, buddy. Duh!
This guy has every right in the world to expect his four-wheel-drive to work because it's a listed feature of the truck... heck, it even has a 4x4 button to push inside the car... with options!
At the very least, Adobe needs to make a disclaimer of the like: "use this feature with caution, still in beta.... still. In fact, it flat out doesn't do as the documentation states, but feel free to give it a try if you want. But please don't come fussing to us if it doesn't work; we're tired of hearing the complaints."
Or, just disable the dumb thing till they can figure it out like much inferior Edius easily did and, as much as I hate to say it, FCP7.

Why are nd filters still used with digital?

I'm kind of new to the world of DSLRs, but it just occurred to me from what I know, that nd filters should really be a thing of the past. I mean nd filters are just there to reduce the amount of light right? This is such a basic thing to do when dealing with digital imaging. Other than holding onto the past, why wouldn't there be a way to set your ISO as low as 1? Or am I just totally missing something? I know some professional digital video cameras like the sony f65 have internal nd filters, but unless that's a software thing, then that also seems a bit silly. Can someone educate me if I'm not understanding.
Cheers,
Cg.
Canon 6D,Canon EF 24-105mm f/4 L IS USM, Sigma 70-200mm f/2.8 EX DG OS HSM, Sigma 1.4 x EX DG Teleconverter, Canon EF 100mm f/2.8 macro USM, Canon EF 50mm f/1.8, EF 40mm f/2.8 pancake, Sigma AF 8-16mm f/4.5-5.6 DC HSM, Pentax 400mm f/5.6

Many "effects" filters are no longer required as the effects can be applied with digital editing software... so while it's true that many filters are "a thing of the past", ND filters are _not_ actually "effects" filters. What they do cannot be simulated by editing an image.
An "good" ND filter wont change the look of the image itself... everything should appear sharp and without any color cast. What it does... is change your shooting CIRCUMSTANCES.
Suppose I'm shooting with an outdoor "fill" flash on a sunny day and my flash can't do "high speed sync" mode... so I'm limited to max flash sync shutters speeds of, say, 1/200th (this varies based on your specific camera model.) The "Sunny 16" rule says that I the normal exposure for full mid-day sun using f/16 is to use the inverse of the ISO as the shutter speed. So at a low base ISO of ISO 100, that'd be 1/100th. But the side-effect of f/16 is a _very_ broad depth of field and suppose I want a deliberately blurred background. I can increase the shutter to 1/200th and this will let me drop my f-stop to f/11... but that's still a LOT of depth of field and no nicely blurred background. If I wanted to bring that down to, say, f/4... I'd have to find a way to dump 3 full stops worth of light. I can't just drop the f-stop to f/4 and increase the shutter by 3 stops to 1/1600th because that's WELL beyond flash-sync speed and my flash (for purposes of this example) can't do high-speed sync.
One really great way to dump 3 stops of light so I can drop my f-stop down without having to speed up my shutter is... a 3 stop ND filter (sometimes called an ND 0.9 -- every "0.1" worth of density blocks 1/3rd of a stop of light.)
Another _VERY_ common use of the ND filter is to get shutters speeds much slower than possible without the filter.
Suppose I want to take a photo of a waterfall and I want a slow shutter so that I can have that gorgeously blurred dreamy looking water. At f/16 my shutter is still at 1/100th... I could go to f/22 and drop the shutter to 1/50th... but that's still pretty fast. If I used 5 stops I could get the shutter down to 1/4 second. A 10 stop ND (ND 3.0) would let me bring that down to 8 seconds...
The final images in these examples would still have the same amount of light and there'd be no tint or color-cast on the images... what you're REALLY doing is changing your shooting "circumstances" which allows you to use different exposure settings than would otherwise be possible without the filter.
Hope that helps!

Why are my imported stills oversaturated?

I'ved tried exporting them from photoshop as jpg, psd, save to web jpg and they still come up oversaturated on the preview. How can I fix this?

The part of the screen that plays your preview may be using an overlay? I don't know if it is still done that way or not. Check your graphics card settngs and make sure that the programs are controlling your card and that you are not using the NVidia settings, or whatever card you have.

Why are external servers STILL auto-opening when you connect to them!

This never happened in classic. One of the many reasons why I stopped liking "macs".

Hi efacg,
Most printing issues are solved by resetting the Printing preferences. When you print from Firefox and you click on the down arrow, do you see Defualt and Firefox? Please make changes to the preferences here and preview the document.
If this continues to be an issue please also see [[Fix printing problems in Firefox]]
If there are any other questions, please do not hesitate to ask, we are here to help.

Why are the pages still loading so slowly? Firefox is also still using a lot of memory. I've tried everything and still have the same issues. The new versions never help either. The support section still lists the same "solutions" that do not work.

I have spent too much time on the same issues. Will the issues ever be resolved?

i'm also having major CPU problems w/ FF 29.0.1. when i restart the app it calms down again but after loading tabs it steadily climbs up to 100% after not too long. i have checked out the 2 CPU links/articles above and do all the basic troubleshooting and tips, but with all the FF tools & add-ons isn't there some sort of CPU monitor that has the ability to display which extensions/scripts are hogging the CPU? Activity Monitor on Mac just shows the total used by the app. it's impossible in my case to efficiently disable dozens of add-ons & scripts, restart, and test each one by one b/c it can take several hrs before the CPU starts to spike high again. i have no time for this.
thanks

Why are my imported stills turning black?

Trying to create a slideshow in iMovie HD 6.0.3. However, every jpg file I import. loads, then turns black (completely black) in iMovie. Why is this? Your help is greatly appreciated!

Well, I figured it out! I feel kinda bad for starting a post, then figuring it out myself, but maybe someone else can learn from it as well?
*The photos you use HAVE to be in the same (exact same) folder as the working file.*
I'm a bit of a neat freak and tried saving two folders inside the same folder as the working file. Every time I tried importing the photos, they would load, then turn black. However, once I moved them directly into the folder WITH the working file, they imported just fine.
Here's to hoping that my experience can help others!

Why are my apps still in trial mode after subcription is paid

my adobe cc trial apps are about to expire and but i have a paid subscription and have tried to download the full apps but have only been given the option to download apps in trial mode, what to do?

Nothing works. Here is the situation. I have a subscription that is up for its monthly fee tomorrow, ever since the first payment, which was processed, I have been able to access the apps but they have always started in trial mode. Even with this latest release today, I uninstalled everything cleaned my system out completely and started from scratch. I access my page the apps are available fro download, firstly they appear as "download trial" but a second later it switches to just plain "download" I download the app, it starts up, there are a few flashes on the initial screen that appears and then the apps revert to the almost finished trial mode I had initially started with and I am presented with an option to continue or activiate with a serial number which i do not have. I am downloading an english version and am making sure that the english is the default language. Dont know what to do. Up the creek without a paddle!!!!!!! HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Why are my photo stills from iPhoto not showing in my iMovie?

In the past (June 2011) I had no problems putting photos into my imovie project. Now, when I slip photos between videos, the Ken Burns effect is applied to the last frame of the video before the photo, skips another photo or two and repeats the KB effect on the last photo before the next video.

Raw files need to be opened and saved before the adjustments are applied. I have no clue what your "batch save" does.
A lot more information about your hardware and software is needed.
BOILERPLATE TEXT:
If you give complete and detailed information about your setup and the issue at hand,
such as your platform (Mac or Win),
exact versions of your OS, of Photoshop (not just "CC", but something like CC2014.v.2.2) and of Bridge,
your settings in Photoshop > Preference > Performance
the type of file you were working on,
machine specs, such as total installed RAM, scratch file HDs, total available HD space, video card specs, including total VRAM installed,
what troubleshooting steps you have taken so far,
what error message(s) you receive,
if having issues opening raw files also the exact camera make and model that generated them,
if you're having printing issues, indicate the exact make and model of your printer, paper size, image dimensions in pixels (so many pixels wide by so many pixels high). if going through a RIP, specify that too.
a screen shot of your settings or of the image could be very helpful too,

Zeroed out my drive -- why are 2 files still there?

I set my computer to zero out my drive over 7 passes last night. I just checked it and it appears that it worked -- it states that only 73.3 MB of the drive are currently being used by 2 files. What are these 2 files and how can they be there if everything on the drive has been erased?
G5 Mac OS X (10.4.6)

Launch Terminal (in Applications/Utilities). type the following command (replacing "yourdrivename" with your drive's name - if you have spaces, you will have to escape them with a backslash "\" like: your\ drive\ name ):
ls -al /Volumes/yourdrivename
You will see that there are two files (. and ..) that are required by Unix for every directory (folder). "." is the current folder, ".." is the next-higher-up folder in the tree.

Why are my RMAN backup files still around?

Environment:
Oracle 11.2.0.3 EE on Solaris 64-bit
Good Morning (at least it's morning here at the moment),
I have a test database that I currently have set up to do an Incremental Level 0 backup every morning at about 03:00.
I also do an 'archivelog backup all' every 4 hours during the day.
My archivelog deletion policy is 'backed up 2 times'.
I have RMAN set up with a recovery window of 8 days (SHOW ALL - seen below).
I have several RMAN files dated 11 days ago.

Any suggestions are most welcome.
Please let me know if more information is needed.

Michael,
I read Ed's thread and I understand about the timing of the Full (Incr Lvl 0) and the incrementals.
In my case I'm not doing any incrementals (Incr Lvl 1) of the database, just Incr Lvl 0 every day. I do the archivelog backups during the day to keep the /arch mount point under control.
So, if I have Incremental Level 0 backups on the 19th, 20th, 21st, 22nd, ..... With an 8 day recovery window I shouldn't need the ones from the 19th or 20th at a minimum and possibly the 21st depending on when the math is done. Right?
Am I missing something?
*************** NEWS FLASH ******************
Whoops!!! Egg on my face! I just checked back in my email logs of the backups and now recall there were some disk space issues around that time that caused the backups to fail and it just so happens that the backups on the 20th, 21st and 22nd all failed.
I should learn to trust RMAN more. It is obviously smarter than me!! :-)
Sorry for the red flags. I'll do my homework more completely next time.
Not a problem. We've all been there, done that.
I can't tell you how many times I've been stuck on something, run out of ideas on my own research and thrown a question to the forum, and no sooner to I hit the 'send' button that a light goes on and I quickly get my own answer.
At least I understand the recovery window scenario better.
Thanks very much for the help and I'll see you the next time.
Have a great day!

Why are powerbooks still on apple's shelves?

why are the powerbook still being sold by Apple? Because they're emptying their shelves?
Or more interesting: Why would people buy a Powerbook?
I am just wondering because i am on the market to buy a laptop.
MBP are very expensive and Powerbook are not that cheap.
MBP or PB?
Any idea?

The Apple online store has not sold powerbooks (other than refurb's) since the various Intel laptops first appeared. And the retail store in Short Pump Va. hasn't had any powerbooks since shortly after the Intel machines hit the shelves.
In what Apple store have you seen new powerbooks for sale?
Macmall and other retailers still seem to have a few - and will have I suppose until thier inventory is gone. But, to my knowledge, Apple itself pulled them as soon as the respective Intel machine was available.

Once I find the game i will truly screenshot that it states "not compatible for these models". I just find it RIDICULOUS that my iPod touch is in good condition and some of the applications that I want download sometimes are not compatible with my iPod touch 4g. I am not going to buy an ipod 5th generation if my 4g is still going strong since the year of 2010.
