Workflow between CC apps is a nightmare

So I have Creative Cloud which I thought would be great to use with all the applications working nicely together....NOT!
Example:
• I've worked on some vector icons using Illustrator CC, now I want to turn them into a sprite sheet. Correct me if I'm wrong, but as far as I'm aware the only application in the whole CC suite that does that with the corresponding CSS file is Fireworks CS6.
• When trying to open the illustrator CC file in Fireworks I get an error message due to the fact that Fireworks doesn't support Illustrator CC....
• Not to worry, luckily I still have Illustrator CS5 on my machine, I'd be damned if I was to rely 100% on creative cloud. So I open my illustrator CC file with Illustrator CS5 only to realise that my file is pretty messed up with massive bounding boxes around elements etc so I need to spend a fair amount of time fixing and cleaning up everything.
• Now I can open my illustrator file with Fireworks but I find that all the layers that I've carefully named in Illustrator have had their name transferred to a holding folder instead.
It seems that Fireworks is on its way out yet much of its functionality hasn't been implemented on other software so it is still necessary yet to use it deprecated versions of other software must be used! Currently, user experience between applications is a complete nightmare.

More moaning!
Can someone give me a rational explanation as to why in Edge Reflow preview in browser shortcut is cmd F12 and in Edge Animate its cmd Return?
Funnily enough both shortcuts have some resemblance in Flash. Is the right hand not talking to the left hand? The user experience across CC apps really needs to be looked at, specially before everything goes too far and there's no way of fixing it.

Is there a good workflow between LR2.6 and PSE8?

Is there a good workflow between LR2.6 and PSE8? I am new to PSE and would like to use it as a secondary editor but continue to use LR to manage my photos. I read that PSE8 will handle raw format but can not get LR to export other than TIF, JPG and PSD. I woiuld appreciate tips fro others doing the same.

I noticed with one of my two LR2.6/PSE8 installations, that LR did not pick up PSE8 automatically as installed. I had to add the key
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\App Paths\PhotoshopElementsEditor.exe
with two values to the registry (obviously I'm a WinXP user).
The attached .txt file embedded in the .zip shows the key and the two values needed in my case. To add the values to a registry, extact the .txt file from the .zip, remove the .txt extension from the name to make it a .reg file and double click it (at your own risk!).
After adding them, LR would show Edit in Adobe Photoshop Elements ... as an option, which it would not before.

Difference between using app server connection pooling and using the driver

Hi all,
How to get connection pooling with out application server and tomcat also?
What is the difference between using app server connection pooling and using the driver supported connection pooling?
Regards,
Murali

maybe the performance of App server pool is better than the JDBC pool,
for you don't know wether the implementation of the JDBC interface is good or bad.

How do I share files on iCloud between different apps?

Hi,
how do I share files on iCloud between different apps?
I would like to edit simple plain text files on my Mac and my iPad using different apps. They don't see the content of each other. How do I fix this?
example:
when I create a .txt files:
Byword on Mac syncs nicely with Byword on iOS.
Ulysses 3 on Mac syncs nicely with Daedalus Touch.
BUT, cross-sync is not possible.... :/
How can I change this? - I would like to work with Byword on my Mac and Daedalus on the go.
Thanks in advance!

Cross-sync only works if an app on the iDevice allows it. For example, some apps (editors) sync with Dropbox (icloud usually isn't the thing to use) but only in their own folders.
If you save a file from the mac to it's own folder, A, on dropbox and on the device you use a different app that uses its own folder, B, then you won't be able to reach folder A on the device.
One thing to look for in editors that support Dropbox (most do, on a device - clearly all do on a mac) is whether they access dropbox using the root folder. From there you can drop down to any subfolder and reach the files you want.

Encrypting communication between an app that uses an ODBC/DSN (with ADODB) and SQL Server 2008 R2

I've been doing a lot of reading the last couple of days on how we can encrypt db communication between our product app and a customer's SQL Server db, but cannot make it work as expected. The app uses a ODBC/DSN to connect to the SQL Server db. I use this
ODBC app to setup the DSN (on a Windows 7 PC):
C:\Windows\SysWOW64\odbcad32.exe
The DSNconnection uses the SQL Server driver 6.01.7601.17514 and has these properties:
- WinNT authentication.
- Client Config button: TCP/IP to <server-name>\<instance.-name>
- Change to default db: <name-of-app-db>
- Everything else is default setting.
SQL Server is on the same Windowns 7 PC and has a self-signed cert installed (used IIS to generate it) and has the Force Enryption set to "yes".
I have a test C# program that uses the ADODB 2.7.0.0 COM-wrapper, made by Visual Studio after adding a reference to the ADO 2.7 library version 6.1.7601.17857. The program creates an ADODB.Connection object that has a simple connection string: "DSN=<san-name>;UID=<user>;PWD=<password>". The
program then creates an ADODB.Recordset object and reads and displays a field from a table.
Works fine.
If I go into SQL Server and set Force Encryption to "no," clear the cert, restart the SQL service, and then re-run the program, it works fine.
Here's the kick. If I go into the DSN and select "Use strong encryption for data" the Test button on the DSN works—why does it work? The SQL Server is no longer encrypting the connection so an error should occur. If I run the test program, it works
as well—why? I can look at the connection properties in the test program and see that ADODB has added the ";Encrypt-yes" stuff to the end of the connection string. Yet that option seems to have no effect.
If I set the SQL instance back to Force Encryption:yes, enable the cert, restart the SQL service, and clear the DSN's "Use strong encryption for data" option, I can still connect to the db with the
test program—why?
What am I doing wrong? I need to be able to ensure that the communication between our app product and the SQL instance is encrypted, and that we get an error if the SQL instance does not support encrypted communications. We really don't want the customer
to have to enable Force Encryption because they have other db's on their SQL Server that do not use encrypted communication, but they want to know that our product's communication channel with the db is encrypted.
No, I can't change the app product's code at this point in time. I'm stuck with working with what a DSN called from ADODB has to offer.
Also, how can I be sure that communications are encrypted? I mean, I've tried things like "SELECT * FROM sys.dm_exec_connections" but that doesn't help because I have no idea how to tie the list of sessions shown back to my test program, although
I guess it's a good thing that some of the sessions listed show encrypt_option as TRUE.
-glenn-

Ah yes, very good point. It's easy to miss because you have to delete then recreate the DSN in order to change drivers. So I switched the DSN over to the SQL Native 11 driver.
Now when I try to connect to the SQL instance as <computer-name>\<instance-name>, and without a cert on the server, I get "the target principal name is incorrect". Perfect; now we're getting somewhere!
Change my DSN to use <fqdn>\<instance-name> and it works. This tells me that SQL Server has auto-generated a cert and named it <fqdn>. I would have expected the "cert fail" error, not a cert
name mismatch, because I'm not using Trust Server Cert.
So I load up my self-signed cert, and that works too.
I am still confused as to why I'm not seeing the "cert fail" error when I have no cert loaded on the SQL Server. I am not using Force Encryption on the server at all, so wouldn't expect SQL Server to auto-create a cert when an Encrypt=yes request comes in,
but apparently it does?
I also ran into a problem with this:
select c.session_id, c.encrypt_option, s.client_interface_name
from sys.dm_exec_connections c
join sys.sysprocesses s
on c.session_id = s.session_id
where s.dbid = db_id('MyDatabase')
There is no s.client_interface_name, probably should be s.hostname. There's also no s.session_id. I thought maybe this should be s.sid, but then no rows ever come back. The c.session_id looks like 51 and 52, but the s.sid looks like a very long binary number,
so these two fields cannot be joined. I don't know how to convert the sid's properly so that the join would work. Ah wait, I just found the s.spid column; the join works when that column is used (I assume that's correct anyhow).
If I add a Thread.Sleep(30 seconds) to my C# program just before the connection is closed, this query shows me the session for the correct hostname has encrypt_option=TRUE.
And I have to keep my fingers crossed that all the app I/O will still work properly after
changing the driver. Probably a safe bet though.
Think I'm ready to throw in the towel on getting the "cert fail/no SSL" error to appear.
It does look like I am able to sufficiently show that the connection is encrypted when Encrypt=yes is used with the newer driver.
Thank for all the help!

Updating Final Cut Studio 2.01 and workflow between FCP and AE

Hi. I am currently working in FCE 3.5 and am considering purchasing Final Cut Studio 2.01 (new and sealed) as opposed to the latest version since I am running a PowerPC G5. Am I assured of being able to download all the updates for Final Cut Pro 6 and exactly which version would be the latest and final one? Was there ever an FCP v6.5? I do mainly animation/motion graphics and work in After Effects (along w/ Flash, Carrara, Photoshop, Illustrator, etc.). I understand that the workflow between FCP (as opposed to FCE) and AE is greatly enhanced. Can someone give me an idea of what advantages this new workflow will offer in terms of what I'll be able to accomplish that I can't do now w/ FCE? Also, any other comments on how FCP (as compared to FCE) will benefit me as an animator will be greatly appreciated. Lastly, am I correct in assuming that I will be able to open my FCE 3.5 project files in FCP 6 but not visa versa? Thanks. Jack.

Thanks for the replies everyone. I see that I will need some 3rd-party support in order to realize the benefit of a Final Cut Pro/After Effects workflow. Have another question. What are the kinds of filters that you can keyframe in FCP but not in FCE? And are there many filters in FCP that are not included w/ FCE? As I deal mainly w/ animation as opposed to footage of live video I am trying to justify the investment in Final Cut Studio 2 in terms of it being a benefit to me as an animator. I currently use FCE 3.5 (which includes versions of SoundTrack and LiveType) and After Effects CS3 plus other graphics programs. I would love to be able to work within DVD Studio Pro as iDVD is so limiting as an authoring program but am not sure how much I will benefit from switching from FCE to FCP. This is what I am trying to nail down.

Is there any way to reverse the "swipe to switch between fullscreen apps" controls?

I feel like the "swipe left to go to the app to the left" is actually counter-intuitive, especially when they were thinking about a touchscreen when designing this OS. The scrolling, though most people aren't used to it on a computer, makes sense because you move the page in the direction as if you were moving a physical page. The switching between fullscreen apps is the opposite and isn't natural for me, especially since I have been using an iPhone and iPad for a couple years now. Is there any way of reversing this control? If not, I think they should do the same thing that they did with the "natural" scrolling and have a checkbox to give you the option of either way.

I didn't see anything in the trackpad preferences as far as direction of the swipe. If anyone else can find it, I would love to be able to reverse it.

Why there is spaces between Web App module listings on a web page?

Why there is spaces between Web App module listings on a web page?
Here is the web page:
http://www.mazine.com/test/testpage.htm
And here is the CSS code:
http://www.mazine.com/test/css/tablestyle.css

I only used Photoshop for the layout. Then I created web-safe images for everything that I used for Dreamweaver. I uploaded the images to the internet and then image sourced them into the code so that they will be viewed properly in the correct circumstances. I haven't used HTML since about 2004 and I wasn't very good then. I've just been thrown back into it and I'm pretty much learning as I go. This is my second attempt because I wanted to make the newsletter more eye-catching. My first one is very basic and without a background image at all and that looks fine in pretty much all email clients. I tested it with Litmus. All except for Windows Live Mail, where the images didn't act as links but as static images. It works fine with the others I tested manually. Those being Gmail, Yahoo and AOL. I will try the display:block and get back to you. Thanks for your suggestions.

LocalConnection between AS3 App into Loaded AS2

So I have an app that loads an AS2 Compiled SWF into it.
The Main App (AS3)
// the SWFLoader loads the ChildSWF, and on (Event.COMPLETE, openLocalConn);
private function openLocalConn(e:Event):void {
   my_send_lc = new LocalConnection();
   my_send_lc.send("ConnCountryList", "publicMethod", "jo");
   my_send_lc.addEventListener(StatusEvent.STATUS, onStatus);
private function onStatus(event:StatusEvent):void {
   switch (event.level) {
     case "status":
        trace("**** LocalConnection.send() SUCCESS ****" + event.toString());
        break;
     case "error":
        trace("**** LocalConnection.send() FAILED ****");
        break;
Loaded SWFChild (AS2)
trace ("Loaded Child SWF");
var getArray_lc : LocalConnection = new LocalConnection();
    getArray_lc.client = this;
    getArray_lc.connect("ConnCountryList");
    getArray_lc.allowDomain('*');
function publicMethod(jo:String) {
    trace('Eureka');
So When I run the MainApp, The ChildSWF gets Loaded (traceout: Loaded Child SWF, it's calls the openLocalConn(), it Gives me another traceout: **** LocalConnection.send() SUCCESS ****,
BUT I GET no traceout for the called publicMethod() in the ChildSWF in which I am supposed to see: Eureka

LocalConnection will only work between two applications running on the same machine.
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/FlashPlatform/reference/actionscript/3/flash/net/LocalConnecti on.html
"LocalConnection objects can communicate only among files that are running on the same client computer, but they can be running in different applications — for example, a file running in a browser and a SWF file running in Adobe AIR."
If you need to communicate between an app running on an iOS device and a swf in a browser on a computer look into the ServerSocket Class:
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/air/reference/html/flash/net/ServerSocket.html
Works a little differently than LocalConnection but will allow connections between two different physical devices (ie: 2 computers, a computer and a mobile device, 2 mobile devices, etc). Since the iOS device uses the air runtime stuff it should have access to the ServerSocket Class while the browser swf can use a standard Socket to connect to the iOS device.

Hi NVS,
What Markus says is correct. There is the ability to import wsdl services into workflow for a service step in the process but in general you may have to develop an abap object as a wrapper to access the third party system.
My rule of thumb is that if 70-80% of the process is in the one system (Web AS supporting the application) then it's fine doing it with workflow otherwise you should look at a more structured approach to make sure you have a stable solution for the long term - <a href="/people/alan.rickayzen/blog/2006/12/15/bpel-in-a-nutshell">BPEL</a> is the defacto standard for dealing with such processes so you should be looking at XI for the process integration combining it with workflow or tasks for the human integration.
If it's a simple process and you don't have workflow know-how then guided procedures is a good intuitive approach.

Question about Workflow between Premiere and After Effects

Hey guys, I have Production Premium CS5 (Premiere and AE)
One thing that has always confused me was basic workflow between these 2 products. Is it best to get your clips, but them into sequence, do the basic effects that Premiere supports and output into the highest quality video in order to take into AE and apply effects to?
Or should I take video footage, do my After Effects work, export that as a clip that will then be used in the video composition in Premiere? I know I don't want to move a project too many times between because of compression, so what would the most optimized workflow be?
FYI, I am doing a lot of video game frag movies, so I have a lot of effects I like to put into it.

Really?
I'm always amazed at Photoshop's cold boot startup time. On my rig it takes 8 seconds. From a warm boot, Photoshop will start in 2-4 seconds.
This isn't the case with my video editing software though...
Sony Vegas 8.1 (looking to learn Premiere so I don't need this anymore - Cold Boot : 8 seconds, Warm Boot : 3 seconds)
After Effects (Cold Boot : 22 seconds, Warm Boot : 8 seconds)
Premiere (Cold Boot : 48 seconds, Warm Boot : 16 seconds)
Premiere seems to be a beast of a program; I'm rather surprised, I thought AE would be the more intense one. Sorry, I haven't yet overcome my fears of losing projects/data because I'm running on a Windows machine.
It's half the reason why I have a Mozy account to backup my files to an online resource.

Cannot activate "Workflows can use app permissions"

Dear all,
I have a SharePoint 2013 on Windows Server 2008 R2.
And I create a develop site to share my apps.
First, I try to activate the app permission, but it fail.
Is anybody knows how to fix it?
Thank you!

Workflows can use app permissions feature is only going to be activated if
1) You have configured your workflow manager properly. Make sure there are not issues with your workflow manager and you can create workflow using SP 2013 Workflow Manager.
2) You have configured apps for SharePoint 2013. Again you will need to make sure that you have hit all the check when configuring SharePoint 2013 apps.
Follow these two articles to make sure that you have configured apps for SharePoint 2013.

If you have confirmed that both of the above features are configured properly then check your ULS logs and find the detailed issue using the Correlation ID.
