Why won't my L4P and LKS files launch on customer's computer?

Events make me almost sure I caused this, but would appreciate help if there's a way to prevent doing this all over again...
Customer had a process file that was running fine, but with an increasing number of staff with access to Lookout he wanted user accounts created and security levels assigned to numerous Lookout objects (accounts and objects were all at default settings). He emailed me the LKS and L4P files, I edited them, and emailed them back.
The L4P and LKS launch fine on my computer, but won't on the customer's. On the customer's computer, launching the LKS file produces a compile error, but doesn't identify the error. I've also emailed the files to a colleague, who replied he had no problem either. Should mention colleague (like me) is running North American Win XP.
Files were generated in Ver 6.02(1) on WinXP machines, and bench tested fine on a Ver 6.1 Runtime also under XP.
The customer is located in Poland, has a Ver 6.1 Runtime, and is running it on a Win NT machine.
So assuming for a moment I caused this anomaly during my editing, why do the files not work at customer's location and why won't the compiler identify what it is?
More to the point, how do I fix this?

Yo, JPhillips:
Thanks for the tip. Took a look at the err file (see for yourself)...
Lookout Process File Compiler Version 6.1 (build 27)
Copyright National Instruments 1992-2007 All rights reserved.
cannot open source file: C:\Program Files\National Instruments\Lookout 6.1\cedrob.lks
This is the same folder where the unedited files WILL work.
Ryan, I've uploaded the cedrob2.zipfile to the ftp site. Would appreciate you having a look at it.
There is certainly a mystery here. If I'm working at a site where the OS is all English, I weigh how much editing I might have to perform and consider moving my Integrator license from my laptop to the customer's computer (to take advantage of the bigger screen, mouse, keyboard and the on-line editing of Lookout) for the duration of the session. In this case, I was at the site (in Poland) in August and since Polish is not my strong suit, I did all my editing on my laptop and transfered the files to customer's computer via memory stick. Everything worked fine during all that, so emailing the files should not be any different, yes?

Why won't elements 12 download raw files from Nikon D810?

Why won't elements 12 download raw files from Nikon D810? I got a message saying that the camera model is not supported by installed version of camera raw. How do I fix it?

Photoshop Elements questions should be posted in the Adobe Photoshop Elements Forum. Somehow your thread got posted in the Adobe Premiere Elements Forum (video editing).
You can re-post your thread in the Adobe Photoshop Elements Forum or wait for a moderator here to see your thread here and move it from here to there.
My opinion on this....from the Photoshop Elements perspective...
Nikon D810 is supported by Camera Raw 8.6 and higher (latest version of Camera Raw is 8.7)
http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/camera-raw-plug-supported-cameras.html
At the same time, the Camera Raw version needs to be supported by the Photoshop Elements version.
Photoshop Elements 12 appears to support Camera Raw up to 8.5 which does not support the Nikon D810.
Camera Raw-compatible Adobe applications
Solution...
a. switch to Photoshop Elements 13 (comes with Camera Raw 8.6 and can be updated to 8.7).
b. use the DNG Converter in Photoshop Elements 12

Why won't Aperture 2 support RAW files imported from Canon 60D when it does from my Olympus DSLR?

Why won't Aperture 2 support RAW files imported from Canon 60D when it does from my Olympus DSLR?

I'm afriad the fact that your Olympus dSLR is supported is no relevance.
The Raw from every model of camera is different. Note: that's every model not every brand. So, the NEF produced by a Nikon D40 is not the same as the NEF produced by a D60, the CR2 produced by a Canon 350 is not the same as the CR2 produced by a Canon 400.
Support for individual camera models has to be added one by one, and Apple will update the OS to work with the most recent version of the software. That's an incentive for you to keep up-to-date. So, for support for your 60D you'll need 10.6.5 plus Aperture 3 and/or iPhoto 11.

My Mac won't install mpkg and pkg files.

My Mac won't install mpkg and pkg files. Whenever I double-click an pkg or mpkg file, I get the dialog box to "choose an application" to open it. After some searching, I discovered I do not have the installer.app. I tried to Repair Disk from my Snow Leopard DVD but every time it boots from the DVD, my computer crashes. Any suggestions?

You have the installer app. It is located in /System/Library/CoreServices.
Use the finder's Go menu, Go to Folder... and type /System/Library/CoreServices to open the CoreServices folder. You should see it in there. If you do not see it there then that would beg the question what else might be missing and perphas you need to do an update (re)install (or restore form a hopefully good backup).
To try to reassoicatate .[m]pkl's with the Installer, take one of your .[m]pkg's and do a finder Get Info on it and set the Open with... to the Installer app. If the Installer app is not shown use Other... at the bottom of the list to navigate to the CoreServices folder and select Installer. Then click the Change All... button.
I am not sure why your [.m]pkgs would have lost their Launch Services association with Installer in the first place (unless it really is missing).

Why won't the date and time stay in the menu bar?

I just installed 10.6.2 and even when I use System Preferences to check the box in the Date/Time panel they flicker and disappear from the menu bar. Why won't the Date and Time stay in the Menu Bar? Any suggestions? Thanks.

Doesn't any bring up the fact that Apple has so many customers with problems that the refuse to help unless you pay them cash? They update you and screw you over and then offer no useful troubleshooting scenarioius to help their millions of customers. It is because they want millions of our dollars. I hate Apple.

Why won't the bought and downloaded films play?

It won't let me download iOS 7. When I check for software updates it says that it is up to date. I also went to iTunes to delete the songs from the iPod, but now it isn't even recognizing any devices. I even uninstalled iTunes and reinstalled it to my computer. LOL I am sure it is something small, but I don't have the patience for it now. Maybe I should step away from the computer and come back in a little bit... Thank you for the advice though! Keep it coming! I know it is hard to diagnose over the internet, but any ideas help!

Why have all my Lightroom and Photoshop files just developped an awful colour shift? how do I correc

Why have all my Lightroom and Photogshop files suddenly developped an awful colour shift when they did not have this a week ago? I can open them in other applications and they view correctly. How can I correct this in Lightroom? HELP urgent!!

Antonia,
Probably your monitor profile is corrupt.
If you're on Windows, see here:
http://www.lightroomforums.net/showthread.php?14070-How-to-assign-an-sRGB-ICC-Profile-to-y our-monitor-%28Windows%29
If you're on a Mac, you'll need to try something similar to set your monitor profile to sRGB. NOTE: this is merely a temporary fix. You need to acquire a hardware calibrator (decent ones can be had for around $100) and calibrate your monitor with it.

Why won't FireFox 4 play mp3 files that have been created since the FF update? It will play mp3 files created prior to the FF update. All of the mp3 files have been created in the same manner, as bounces from Logic Pro 9. Thank you.

Hi David,
Thank you for your detailed question. It sounds like the real issue is pdf files. Are there any antivirus/firewalls that might be blocking this specific file type? or are there any preferences in your control panel that might be blocking this?
Do you have any stored preferences for PDF files in Firefox?

Why won't my imac email send unless I restart the whole computer?

why won't my imac email send unless I restart the whole computer?

Two things, first see if it shows up in "Apple > About This Mac > More Info.. > Disc Burning" . If you still see it there the system still recognizes it but it isn't responding. Next do a
SMC RESET
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964
Shut down the computer.
Unplug the computer's power cord and ALL peripherals.
Wait 15 seconds.
Attach the computers power cable.
Wait another 5 seconds and press the power button to turn on the computer.
The 5 second timing is important to a successful reset.
Hopefully this will reset the power to the drive.

Why are my mp3's and m4a files no longer recognized?

All of a sudden, 95% of the 10,000 music tracks in my iTunes Library has become unplayable. It concerns mp3 and m4a files with music that I purchased and ripped over the years. Wifi syncing to my iPhone 4s made it worse: now the Music app on my iPhone won't play them either.
All tracks added before Mid September 2012 are dead. They can be seen in the library and metadata can be read in iTunes. But when I click on the file, nothing happens. Newer files do play normally, though. MP3's that were not located in the iTunes library also still are playable.
I tried opening the files with VLC player, Quicktime and even on a windows machine. All I get is a message that songitle.mp3 cannot be played because it's format is not recognised.
It has been over a week since I first noticed the problem and I spend many late hours. What is going on? Has Spotlight messed with my music's metadata? Is Apple denying me access to my own files? HELP!
What I tried:
- restore files from Time Machine backup: same problem
- play files on other machines: same problem
- repair a file with MP3 Scan+Repair. It says: ERROR: Unknown file format!
- decrypt HD by disabling FileVault: no improvement and Time Machine won't work anymore (Stupid)
- do a fresh install of Mountain Lion: no improvement
- restore files from Carbon Copy Clone: same problem (has Spotlight done this while indexing the external HDD?
- boot from the Carbon Copy Clone (turned out impossible due to the Verbatim external drive that won't boot-should have tested that before I ran into trouble )
- find solutions in apple discussions, google etc for almost ten days: no solution

You're welcome: I am happy you are thinking along.
We may me on to something: I could not access my account on Sep 11 and did a restore from TM. It did not go too smoothly, but it worked. That's when I decided to pick up the habit of making carbon clone copies again.
Now if something would have been wrong with the songs in the iTunes/Music folder, it must have been copied just as wrong to the carbon clone. Hence the reason why my backed up songs won't play. So you could be right that the files were probably messed up Mid September and not just two weeks ago.
But why haven't I noticed it before? Probably because all the music I like to hear is in my iPhone, that apperently doesn't do to many wifi syncing? It is strange though that for two months I could still play the music on my iPhone.
What did happen just before I could not play them anymore, was the iOS update to 6.0.1. My phone's battery was draining fast and it became hot. Maybe the phone's Spotlight had to re-index? I don't know.
FV was there since Jan, when I set up this machine. I did not run some kind of utility particularly on my music files.
I think you are wise to stick to your OS version as long as it works well. Upgrading usually comes with some issues.
About my setup:
I started out on another MBP (mid 2009) with 10.5. Upgraded to 10.6 then to 10.7. Had some kernel panic issues, but solved them.The machine got stolen in January and I got my current MBP (late 2011) with 10.7 on it that I upgraded to 10.8 this summer. I started using FV in Jan with the new machine. The theft made me wonder if I shouldn't be more Utilities I use ever so infrequently:
Onyx
Drive Genius
ClamAV
Carbon Copy Cloner.
Syncing/Backup takes place to
Time Machine (full drive)
iCloud (limited data)
SugarSync (limited data)
Dropbox (limited data)
Google Drive (limited data)
Carbon Copy Cloner (full drive)
Other things:
I put a hardware password on my laptop and a use Prey tracking software (not that it helped me to find back my old laptop btw)
I can't remember what utility I was running at the time of the lockout in September. Maybe there was something like Drive Genius running when I had to close my MBP and leave. But since the music on my TM has the same problem, the whole lockout may not be the reason of the corrupted songs.
Perhaps I should just accept my losses. I found an older backup with the oldest 90% of the songs that work. It's just that I am curious to know what went wrong to keep it from happening again.
About moving to another forum: what do you think would be the best choice? OS X Mountain Lion?

Why won't excel read my csv file created with the powersell out-file automatically.

I wrote a PowerShell script that creates a CSV formatted file. The script simply creates a comma delimited string for each entry and adds it to a collection. Then the out-file command write it to a file.
When you open it with Excel each line is put into one cell. If you import the file and specify the "," as the delimiter, it imports just fine. If the data is saved out again as a csv file, the file is about half the size and opens
just fine with excel.
If you open the original file and the file created by Excel with notepad, they look the same.
So the files are different in size, contents look the same, but Excel won't automatically open the original file.
Any ideas of why this happens? Also PowerShell and Excel are both running on Server 2012 R2. Excel is a remote app.
If I do an export-CSV, I get some kind of information about the object.
Here is the script:
foreach ($group in $groups)
   $header += '"' + $group.name + '",'
   $CSVdata = @()
   $CSVdata += $header
   # Create a user entry
   $users = Get-ADUser -filter * |select SamAccountname, Name | sort SamAccountName
   foreach ($user in $users)
      $Groupmembership = Get-ADPrincipalGroupMembership -Identity $user.SamAccountName
      $userentry = '"' + $user.SamAccountName + '",'
      $user
      foreach ($group in $groups)
          if ($Groupmembership.SamAccountName -contains $group.SamAccountName) { $userentry += '"X",'}
          else { $userentry += '"",' }
       $CSVdata += $userentry
      $CSVdata
      Out-File -inputobject $CSVdata -FilePath c:\batch\GroupMembership.csv

Ok the script works exactly like I want it. Thank you very much.
I am trying to understand the script but I am unable to figure out what the line "$keys=$t.Keys|%{$_}"
does. I figured ".keys" was a method but my search for it comes up blank. Do you have a reference you can point me to?
