Zotero, Sente, Papers integration with Apple Pages

I am a scientist who continually utilizes refererence databases and has to create bibliographies for my publications.
Pages is superior in so many ways for publishing and preparing manuscripts except when it comes to references and bibliographies.
Apple has allowed EndNote integration. But EndNote has many issues and does not fit every user. There are applications that actually do the job better and are FREE. Zotero is one of these.
All academicians are usually also writers and need this kind of integration. I realize that there are other software packages out there such as Papers and Sente, etc.
Many of us academicians would switch completely to Pages if it offered this functional integration.
I have written to Apple several times with this suggestion but have received no reply nor have I seen any movement on this front.
If we could all lift our voices to Apple perhaps they will allow other providers besides EndNote to integrate with Pages.

I think there was some misunderstanding of your posting. Bookends is a bibliographic program made sold at Sonnysoftware.com. It is in my opinion much better, and is certainly much less expensive, than Endnotes. None of this has anything to do with Bookenz.
I strongly agree that Apple needs to cooperate with the developer of Bookends so that a really good integration can be achieved with Pages, as Bookends has with Mellel. I suppose that means releasing the API.

Is it possible to create a tagged pdf with apple pages?

Not sure if possible and any tutorials would be appreciated.

> Is it possible to create a tagged PDF with Apple Pages?
Short answer: No, Apple chose at the introduction of Mac OS X to support only Adobe PDF 1.3 and those parts of Adobe PDF 1.4 that include device-independent transparency, but not those parts of Adobe PDF 1.4 that include Adobe XMP for XML markup of the page description program.
Long answer: Adobe PostScript is a page description programming language, unlike Xerox Interpress which is a page and document description programming language. In other words, Adobe PostScript is a streaming or sequential rendering model that cannot simulate the behaviour of a bound book where the user can turn from any one page to any other page arbitrarily. Adobe introduced Acrobat Distiller in 1993 in order to convert Adobe PostScript page description programs into Adobe PDF page and document description programs that share the same fundamental functionality as Xerox Interpress.
Conversion from Adobe PostScript to Adobe PDF buys one nothing but page-independent processing. Specifications published by Adobe in 1993 state how the SFNT Spline Font file format used by Apple and Microsoft for Unicode imaging has to be re-encoded into PostScript font program dictionary format (PostScript so-called simple fonts with less than 256 glyphs and PostScript so-called complex fonts (CID fonts) which are simple fonts tiled into a single superfont). All that is left is the glyph identifiers, and per Unicode Specification version 1.0 the glyph identifiers are private and font-dependent, so no character information can be inferred.
ISO 19005:2005 PDF/A is a superset of ISO 15930:2002 PDF/X-3. The problem with ISO 15930:2002 PDF/X-3 is the same as above, that is, Adobe PostScript cannot encode the file format of the International Color Consortium, which has to be re-encoded to PostScript CSA Color Space Arrays and PostScript CRD Color Rendering Dictionaries. It is possible to encode the ICC file format directly in PDF 1.3 and higher, as specified in ISO 15930 and ISO 19005, but because PDF encodes only the glyph identifiers that are the output of the SFNT file format, and not the UCS Universal Character Set input and the settings for the feature selectors in the font file, ISO 19005:2005 has come under criticism for failing to support search in complex scripts.
ISO 19005:2011 is supposed to address the shortcomings by saving the UCS input into the PDF itself, but in this case it is impossible to use Adobe PostScript and Adobe Acrobat Distiller as intermediates to Adobe PDF. So in order to drive ISO 19005:2011 Adobe would have to ditch Adobe Acrobat. I am not sure if there is software that implements ISO 19005:2011, but I noted that the Apple iBook Store does not accept PDF at all. Personally, I struggle to think of how to explain to endusers the overwhelming number of Adobe ISO PDF formats (there is PDF/E, PDF/UA and whatever else), and the overwhelming number of Adobe ISO PDF versions of these formats (there is ISO 19005:2005, ISO 19005:2011, ISO 15930 all the way back to 1999/2000 in God knows how many versions at this point).

On iPad can I open a Microsoft word file with apple pages app?

On iPad, can I open a Microsoft word file with apple pages application? If so how do I perform this activity?

Yes you can open Word files. If it is an email attachment you can simply tap and hold down on the icon and select "open in" and then select Pages - as long as you have the Pages app on the iPad.
Where is the file on your iPad or how do you want to move it to the iPad?

IMac won't print microsoft word doc "open with" apple pages

When its set to open with pages it just freezes the pages program and wont print. If I set it to open with textedit or some other program then it will print. Note, if I open it first with pages then it will print from within pages. It just wont print using file > print from the apple menu. Whats the fix for this? Currently I have it set to open all word docs in LibreOffice in order to print docs with ease. But I would rather use apple pages app.

I felt i had to come to help you if your problem was not solved.
I've a customer who just came up with this problem. He is using Office 2003 on Windows 7 Home Edition 64 bits. He is using also a Color LaserJet 2600n. We just reinstalled his software on a new computer and we started experiencing "Current Printer Is Unavailable" in Excel. When trying to access Page Setup, it was also giving us that same message, and
then we had a dialog listing every computer available.
We produced a PDF, tried to print from Acrobat Reader, it crashed too the same way you mentionned.
Here's what happenned:
We first installed the driver available from HP web site
We did some updates from Microsoft Web Site. There was an optional hardware update for the LaserJet 2600n, so we installed it. This update is completely {Language Filter Evasion}
Uninstall your printer driver (well, just remove it from your printer list)
Then reinstall it. In our case, it was accessed thru IP.
When it was installing, it asked us to keep the same driver or REPLACE the driver... pick-up REPLACE the driver!
And you are good to go...

Integration with Apple's iPhoto

I create a lot of personal items with InDesign, as well as commercial ones. With my personal ones especially, I would really like a way to select photos that are stored in Apple's iPhoto, something very similar to Apple's Media Browser found in Apple's apps. Heck! Just put the Media Browser in ID.
I know, Adobe made something called the Mini Bridge in ID; but, I am so familiar with Apple's interface and like it so much better, I would really like it to look like Apple's browser. Also, the Mini Bridge does not really link to iPhoto. If I browse to the iPhoto library in Mini Bridge and double-click in the iPhoto library, iPhoto opens, instead of showing me the photos in the app.
I know Adobe is loathe to present a Mac-only feature; but, they should get over that. They could do something similar on the PC, say, with a direct link to the PC's Pictures folder.

I don't know about iPhoto, but ...
I know Adobe is loathe to present a Mac-only feature; but, they should get over that. They could do something similar on the PC, say, with a direct link to the PC's Pictures folder.
... I have seen a demonstration from Kinect on regular Windows computers. What if Adobe added a nifty "Kinect-only" feature to InDesign, say, something like Minority Report shuffling of objects -- and the 'similar' function for Mac users would be, "well, you can't do that but you can toggle the layers on the top off and then move selected objects with the mouse and then toggle the layers on again as a workaround"?
Platform-independency is good -- if only because it diminishes the chance of odd OS related bugs. (Remember those? Back in the days, when there were separate fora for Windows and Mac?)
But of course, there is nothing against a 3rd party (Mac-only) plugin that'd integrate iPhoto; that would be, by definition, only useful for Mac users.

Use facebook integration with business page

We would like to use the facebook integration to link to our business facebook page, that way we can easily monitor activity and share posts and photos directly from the desktop. I can only get it to link to personal accounts of those who are managers of the page and we would prefer not to have employees distracted with their personal facebook lives at work.
Thanks!

Yes, you can keep your facebook contacts out of your contacts app.
Open system preferences>mail, contacts, and calendars>(your facebook account)>contacts
There should be a check box for contacts, if you uncheck it, your facebook contacts/friends should not end up in your contacts app.
I'm not 100% sure, sorry, I don't have facebook integration activated on my Mac.

MacBook Pro integrated with Apple Hardware Test?

I was over at the MacBook Air support page, when I came across this article on how to test your hardware for issues.
And was wondering if it also works on MacBook Pro's or if its only exclusive to MacBook Air?
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=307239
Thanks,
Saeid.

It's supposed to:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=303605
Yes, but that tech article is misleading. The hardware test is available at boot time and is firmware based. You do not need to have the Install DVD in the drive to run it, just press D after the "bong".

Avaya(Non-java app) integration with ADF

Hi,
We have a desktop application Avaya (non-Java) & want to integrate it with ADF. Currently we do it by passing parameters in HTTP URL. If the user clicks on a button in non-java app, it should:
(1) open search page of an ADF application and execute search.
(2) if the ADF application is already open, the button on Avaya app should execute search with partial page refresh. However, the whole page is being refreshed.
Can you please guide, how to do this with partial page refresh? , as the No 1 is almost achieved.
Thanks,
NC

Hi Shay,
Below Options were tried for integration. Please have a look at them and suggest if there is any other possible way to Integrate Avaya with ADF.
1) Calling ADF application with URL parameters.
Reasons to drop:
Every time a URL is called the entire page will get rendered again taking some 2-3 seconds which is very critical to the application.
ADF is capable of handling URL parameters without re-loading the whole page(http://oracamp.com/passing-parameters-adf-application-through-url). But we can't use this inbuilt way as we have many customized developments implemented in the page. This way directly works at AMImpl (at Model level) level. We want the events to be fired at View level. That is backing bean level.
2) Avaya is capable of dealing with ActiveX (OCX). They sent me 2 DLLs which handles communication between web page and Avaya application. A simulator was also sent (bundle attached herewith). The steps to be carried out for testing are-
Installation procedures:
i. Register the DTLCRMINT.ocx file. Start->Run-> Type the command
ii. regsvr32 <ocx file location>
iii. Register the DTLINTCMP.ocx file. Start->Run-> Type the command
iv. regsvr32 <ocx file location>
v. Double click on the Clinet.exe it would open up a windows application with a Textbox and Command button. Put In the data which needs to be sent.
vi. Open the CRM Page.html. On opening the OCX would be loaded by default.
vii. Now clicking the Send Data button on the client application, whatever information is there in the Client Text Box would be sent to the web page.
viii. From CRM side, the application needs to use the OCX provided, and must wait for the event. On receiving the event the data that is retrieved as a part of the event can be parsed to update the text box and click on the search button.
Reasons to drop:
It works fine with basic HTML page. But once integrated with ADF page as an inline frame it doesn't work. We tried to embed the OCX object inside <verbatim> tags, but was not successful. The event fired by ActiveX object is triggered at client side by VBScript function. Avaya's ActiveXs seem to be only working with VBScript according to my understanding. So there was no way for ADF to capture VBScript events.
ADF is capable of javascript up to some extent. To do a critical application like this, my feeling is javascript is never a good option.
3) To use a text file. Avaya writes, ADF application reads.
Reasons to drop:
ADF can read the text files with normal java IO methods. But only the server directories are visible. So, Avaya has to write the information in the server file. With using a parameter like user name, ADF application can read the file in regular time intervals (with using poll feature) and get relevant information and automatically run the search.
Initially the idea was to do this at client side. But since this is a web application, file reading at client side is next to impossible. Again when one side is reading and the other side is writing, file access violations may occur.
4) Another option is if Avaya can offer the value in a web service, the ADF application can get it.
Reasons to drop:
There may occur a latency as well as Avaya says they can't offer web services.
5) The ideal solution is, the ADF application's front end control's IDs can be provided. If the Avaya system is capable of accessing or getting hold of DOM and pushing the value to the controls and clicking the button; things would become pretty straight forward. JMeter works like this in testing J2EE applications.
Any Recommendations how can it be done .
Thanks.

Title:
Mac Mail att htm issue in outlook
Question:
I'm using mac original mail software. I did set my HTML style template. The software is best ever.
And works good when I send email to outlook users on PC. However if I attach PDF for example, it does go through and outlook users get it, however when they open message all they see.
- attached PDF
- and att00001.htm file which has inside email text
Not everybody gets idea to open it and thy think it is empty email. The same email will be sent to apple user everything looks properly. Why email text is converting into the htm file? It happens only if i attach something to my message, if I don't then email text is not being converted to htm attachment.
I think there are a lot of user that know this issue, did anybody find a solution yet?
Thank you
jhyiesla:
I don't think there is anything you can really do about it.
I think that it's how the receivers program is going to interpret it.
For example, I sent an email to my Outlook account from my Mac with just an attachment; no text. I looked at the email in Outlook 2000 and I see the attachment as an item in the body text section of the email. When I look at that same email in Outlook 2003 the attachment shows in the attachment area under the subject line and the body text area is blank.
Then I sent another one with an attachment and some text in the body of the email. In Outlook 2000 I see the text in the text area and the attachment as well as a attxxx file in an area at the bottom of the email. The att file was empty. In Outlook 2003 that same email as the attachment and the empty att file in the attachment area at the top and under the subject line and in the body text area of the email is the text that I typed.
Although Mac Mail uses standard protocols, which is why you can send an email to a Windows PC, it just does some different things. In the WIndows world Outlook and Outlook Express also handle some things differently.
Goldblum:
Thank you for your reply
This issue makes mail.app useless, do you have any recommendations?
Other client which are as good as the mail.app or would be nice to know what is forcing to convert body text to attachment? I could reduce beautiness of my email template by taking out header (jpg) or not using rich text. What exactly is forcing outlook to convert body to attxxxxx.htm file?
jhyiesla:
I truly don't know the answer to that question. Sometimes similar things happen coming the other way. I'll get emails in to my Mac Mail that have jpg files and I'll see the actual pictures in the body of the email.
I happen to also have Office 2008 for the Mac installed and when I sent my self a message and looked at it in Outlook 2000 and XP, the email looked "normal" in all instances. The attachment was marked as an attachment, text was where it should be and no att file.
There are other email clients that would probably work on the Mac like Thunderbird... but I'm guessing that you'd have a similar thing as happens with mac mail. Still it might be worth the download to test it out.
Goldblum:
I used entourage and same HTML template for email and have no problems. It is just so that entourage is as any other MS product "broken" out of the box but did good job and same message is not being converted to HTML attachment when it goes to outlook on PC. I will continue researching internet because it has to be solved. I can't send a message to client without comment to attached invoice. This is so not professional. I will play more with settings of mail.app to see what else can be done to avoid conversion.
jhyiesla:
Entourage probably works well with Outlook because they're both MS products and MS is going to have somewhat similar looks to all their Office products... although there is quite a bit of difference between Entourage and Outlook.
Here's a link that may help you on your search:
http://email.about.com/od/macemailclients/tp/free.htm

As mentioned, Outlook is not email standards compliant. It probably never will be based on Microsoft's history. However, I think there are various issues involved in the problems people have. I often send emails from home to my Outlook account at work. I have never experienced any of the problems that I've seen posted anywhere regarding Mail and Outlook.
My conclusion is that there are issues with certain Exchange Server configurations and/or issues with your own ISP mail server causing the issues.
I do have my system set up to Always send windows friendly attachments (from what I've read, this really is 'send Outlook friendly attachments'), and always put attachments at the end. Prior to the 'always put attachments at the end,' I wasn't having any issues, either. However, I read that that setting helped with other email clients, so I use it.
The obvious question is, "well, how is your exchange server configured." I would love to provide the answer to that question; however, I work for a DoD organization, so actually tracking down the person that knows the answer to that question will take somewhere between five years and never. With my 20+ years experience with the DoD, I'm leaning towards the never end of the spectrum. The other half of the equation is, "I'm using cox as my ISP."

Lightroom and/or iPhoto with Apple TV (first 1st generation) integration/streaming

As a hobby Photographer I love using lightroom, Many times, I want to use apple tv to show the photos, or even just randomly browse them. Now the problem is, there isnt any (or I dont know about one, thats why im here ) easier or more automatic or integrated way to stream the library into the apple tv i have (first generation apple tv) than through iPhoto.
Now, I WANT to use lightroom for handling and editing photos (the editting options and organization/sorting of photos is just somewhere in different dimensions to iphoto)
But, I HAVE to use iPhoto for streaming to Apple TV.
Any Idea how I could do all this without manual import export between the LR and iPhoto?
I know lightroom can watch a folder and use automatic import but is that really the best way?
Thank you so much! Please let me know of any idea that pops into your head!
Thanks!
Ondrej

Sorry but you'll need to go back and forth: out of Lightroom and into iPhoto. Setting up a workflow of flagging and using Smart albums can make this easier. But basically, those images need to get into iPhoto to work with Apple TV. Have you considered using Apple's Aperture? Aperture integrates nicely with Apple TV. That's what I use. However, be warned that Aperture is a resource hog and requires more of the higher end processes to work really well, especially if you have large photo libraries. You'll want 8GB of RAM and a newer graphics card (basically a newer Mac) and higher end CPU. The minimum requirements that Apple says Aperture needs are minimal at best.
