Authorware Migration?

• Authorware error launch of PDF files

  Hi all

  I was big into Authorware from 1999 to 2005, but migrated to Flash since then.

  I have a program that has 34 lessons created in this time and distributed on CD. This program is starting to become a great use once again, and to my delight, it still works pretty well. However, there are links throughout the CD that will launch a PDF file that are local CD when I click the link, it launches the pdf perfectly, but when I close it, closing the document, but I find myself with a white screen on my program. The program is still running back, but I can't get rid of the big white top box which held the pdf.

  Any help would be appreciated.

  Thank you

  Assuming you have all of the PDF files in a folder called 'pdf', it would be calc icon code something like this:

  JumpOutReturn ("" ", FileLocation^"pdf\\filename.pdf ")

  In the dialog box A'ware functions:

  JumpOutReturn ("program" [, 'document'] [, "creator type"])

  JumpOutReturn opens the application specified in the program, and Authorware continues his presentation in the background. Use JumpOutReturn in calculation icons.

  When you specify the program argument, remember to use the exact name of the application. On Windows, it is also a good idea to specify the extension of the application. Unless the application to which you jump is stored in the same folder as the Windows search path or Authorware file, you need to specify the path of the program.

  [ERIK: usually you can leave this empty as the operating system should automatically determine the good parent program.]

  The document of the optional argument opens another application with a specific file. It is best to store this file in the same folder as the Authorware file; otherwise, you must specify a path as part of the argument. If you specify only the document without specification of program, Authorware prompts you to locate the appropriate application.

  [ERIK: same as above, this should not happen in most cases]

  The third argument optional, available on the Macintosh, specifies the type of creator of the application (a four-character code) and Authorware helps localize the application on the user's system. It is useful to include the creator type if users may have changed names or locations of the program files. If you ResEdit, about creating a program type use the command read the information. If you do not specify a document, but you're including a creator type, insert a string NULL for the first argument. Jump to other files Authorware (rather than other applications) use the JumpFile and JumpFileReturn functions.

  [ERIK: it is completely obsolete]

• I've recently migrated my iPhotos to Photos, perfectly worked for a few weeks, but suddenly today, I can't open my photos in pictures

  I recently migrated from iPhoto to Photos worked perfectly and I used it for a few weeks, but today I can open my pictures suddenly not in pictures. What's wrong?

  No idea since we can't see you - you must provide details - why you can't open pictures? What is going on? What is you get the exact error message? What version of the operating system and Photos you have?

  and there's a photo for Mac forum, which is where you can ask questions Photos - I will ask to be moved your message

• Open migration to Active Directory directory Windows vs Mac

  OK, so I help my old school to their IT needs, because they do not have a person hired for this role.

  Currently, they have a center where the staff use computers based on Windows 10 10 (systems of Core 2 Duo, especially assembled; all about 3 years) connected to a Windows 2008 Server (from Dell; about a year). As the institution wishes to expand the computers available to their staff (from 90), my suggestion was to move to Mac (probably 11 '' MBAs), with a MacBook Pro 15 "is the duty of the server.

  This migration can be done in one shot and would happen progressively (probably MBAs purchased each year for the next four years, 20-25).

  The current configuration is that there is a local + Admin user configured on each of the 10 Windows PC - based, with all personnel having access to the user not local administrator.

  In order to facilitate the management, I would like to move to the logons on the network, as we begin our migration to a Mac OS environment.

  Should we configure AD on Windows Server and bind it as MBAs, and when to buy us, with the final being the MBP 15 "for server-buying functions, or is it possible we can get the MBP 15" now and use Open Directory and binding the existing 10 10 Windows-PC with the macOS Server?

  NOTE: The school operates Google Apps, and all employees have a Google Apps account with a custom domain name.

  You can't link PCs to Open Directory without using 3rd - Party (page). In addition, depending on the operating system will not work reliable? You'd have to trial it first. Beyond bond and provide a home folder there will be nothing else. No management, no policies etc Open Directory to your PC.

  Support way to achieve this is to use Active Directory and complete with OD to manage your estate of mac only. Again, you can apply GPOS for Mac without 3rd - Party help which can be very expensive.

  Not that it's something that you would consider - although you could do? It may be preferable to go ' all the mac "If your intention is to switch to Mac OS. If your PC using the software that is available only for PCs consider using virtual machines on your Mac to keep this aspect of the school.

• migrate Photos pictures of the camera

  My brother-in-law (senior senior!) is struggling to migrate images from his camera for Photos.  He has just upgraded its imac 2009 at El Capitan 10.6.8 10.11.6 so this is a big step.  He has done the conversion from iPhoto in pictures, but when he plug his camera, the content opened in pictures, but when he clicks on import, nothing happens.  It is about 3,000 km, so I'm the middleman.  I use the same software and have no problem, so I fight for help.

  Any ideas?

  What camera? He is shooting JPEG or RAW? What happens? Image Capture will import the photos? If you once they are safely on Mac and backed up using camera format command to erase and reformat the card

• Migration process now broken

  Hello

  I'm migrating a server running 10.8.5 to a new Mac running 10.11.6. It was very well - I took a Time Machine backup, it has migrated to the new Mac, download server, ran Monday, and everything has worked just like that.

  Thursday, since server was updated to 5.2, after migration and download server and running it, he refuses now to update saying I need to run an earlier version of the server or OS X to do the migration. I have no way to get the version that was available for download on Monday but, not that I can see.

  Any advice?

  Solved by Apple support - buy a Mac running 10.11 prior to version 10.11.6 and the App store will download an older version of the server. That can be copied in all and the migration done with this version.

  Phew.

• Mail of the Mac Mini, iMac with the migration wizard

  I have a mac mini (2014 - El Capitan) that I have used for some time now and I have many mailboxes (30 +) with many stored messages (100s maybe 1000s).

  I recently picked up a 2011 27 iMac which is running OS X Sierra Final Release Candidate due to vision problems.

  Both units are working well but I would like to transfer my boxes to the letters, messages, and the account settings from the Mac Mini to the iMac using Migration Assistant to take advantage of the larger screen.

  Am I able to select only the data for e-mail (boxes letters, messages and settings) to transfer somewhere in the Migration Wizard interface or will it just to start the transfer of all?

  I use iCloud for note, calendars and contacts, but prefer not to use for e-mail.

  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  Thank you

  The simplest option would be to use Time Machine to restore your data.

  Other Options:

  You can export the folders you want to transfer the mini using export of Mail under mailbox function in the Menu bar > export a mailbox... Drag to the folder on the desktop on the new iMac and import in Mail. File > import boxes mailbox...

  You can also use a third-party application, Emailchemy to export your Mail on the mini and pull only the folders you want and import. If you have many files, it would be a faster option.

  Otherwise, you could drag on the whole Mail > V3 folder let Sierra update data. This assumes that you have already started using Mail to Sierra.

  You don't have to use iCloud email to use Apple Mail. I strongly suggest that you use IMAP to service what ever you choose to use.  Comcast, Yahoo, Gmail, AOL, Hotmail (other)

• Understand migrations from iPhoto to Photos

  After you migrate an iPhoto for photo library, the file extension of the iPhoto Library is changed in .migratedphotolibrary, and my understanding is that the two libraries share the same files through the use of "hard links". I've also read that if one of the libraries is published subsequently, what causes the link between versions of break. Is this true?

  If so, my questions are:

  (1) If hard links break, this means that storage on hard drive required by the two libraries is increased by the size of one of the libraries? If so, who would not take a little time if the booksellers were important, for example 100 GB or more?

  (2) immediately after the migration, what happens if one of the libraries I move to a different folder? Again break hard links? If so, same question as above.

  No - change or deletion of a form of photos a library does not break the hard link and has no effect on the other library - they are totally independent

  1 - Yes

  2. Yes, I believe that to break hard links - travel for sure as a library to another volume break

  Why move a? Usually simply leave you it where it is for several months until you are sure that you need is no longer and then archive and delete

• Migrating to SATA drive to iMac

  Four days ago my MacPro (2010) died. I have four 3 "SATA drives from 1 to 2 to each of Mac Pro. The computer was for business and personal use. Absolutely everything (including financial information) I have is on these four discs, including redundant copies of some files, but also my Time Machine backup.

  I will have an envelope coming tomorrow which is a RAID box but will be executed in the independent drive with four drives Mode. My 'new' computer is an iMac (2013), that was given to me.  The iMac and the main SATA drive running the same version of the operating system. I need to resolve this issue quickly so I can return to work. In the immediate future, I intend to operate out of the primary SATA drive to catch up, and then transfer when I'll have a good time to transfer.

  My question is the best way to get the entire contents of the primary SATA drive on the iMac's hard drive. I want everything that is on the main SATA drive to put to be on the iMac (including the prefs and hidden folders) of Mac Pro and it would be the same when I booted the Mac Pro.

  Can I use migration utility, clone the drive SATA main to the iMac or even use the Time Machine backup?

  If I clone the drive, I know that I would have to boot from one disk other than the iMac drive to clone to the iMac. When the primary SATA drive is attached, I need to boot from it by holding down the option key at startup key to select the startup disk.

  If I use the Migration utility, it seems I start the iMac, and then run the utility to the iMac of the SATA drive range, which would be connected to the iMac. This would replace all the information on the iMac even though it was the boot drive?

  I printed the information on the Migration of Apple Mac help when transferring to another storage device, but it's not quite clear to me.

• Where is the Migration Wizard?

  I have three MacBook Pro. My most old, 5-6 years, repeated that she was seriously infected by a virus. I erased it. Now, I restart and OS X Utilities push the info, with four options: restore of backup Time Machine, reinstall OS X, Get help online or disk utility. I time Machine using my current Mac brand new, but I can't restore the old Mac directly by using the new Time Machine copies. It tells me to use the Migration Wizard. Where is he? I have yet a third Mac, a few years more recent than this one, that I can restore from reformatted. Is Time Machine restore possible? How can I find Migration Wizard with these four options on the screen? Thank you.

• Migrate messages from the Macbook Air to new iMac 2012 2016

  How can I migrate all my messages (text, iMessage) of my Macbook Air to my new iMac 2012 2016? I have a lot of messages on my laptop and I want to migrate them to my iMac just to have them for reference/memory later. I do this because I would like to activate the monthly updating of message on my iPhone, so he won't have to queue all my messages it years ago and I am also reformat my old Macbook Air. Is there a way to do this? Thank you!

  Messages and e-mail accounts and data are found in/Home/Library/Messages/and/Home/Library/Mail/files. Just copy the content to the same folders on the new computer.

  Or you can migrate your complete folder from the old computer to the new home. This can be done using the love at first sight between the two cable and on the new computer using target disk Mode use the Migration Wizard to migrate your application. It could also be run from a time Machine or another external backup drive.

  Migration will not overwrite any user account that has already been created on the new computer. MY simply creates a new Admin user account name. You will then need to switch to the newly migrated account.

• Migrate directly or from a backup?

  When dies a Mac - if the hard disk is OK - should migrate directly or from a backup?

  The new Mac check the old file system log to make sure that everything is OK and put the data back in an audited?

  I think that if the Mac died suddenly, I don't know if that hardware problem may affect the data on the hard drive, then perhaps that supports to switch over to a backup. But then there is always the possibility that there could be a problem with the backup. (We have a backup that is no more than an hour old.)

  Thank you in advance!

  If possible I would like to migrate directly, the backup is a good option when you cannot.

• Migrating from iPhoto to Photos

  I just upgraded to El Capitan and want to start using the Photos, I have followed the procedures to migrate my old iPhoto library Photos with my library of Photos appointed to reside on another internal hard drive.  I tried several times, but shortly after the migration has started I got the message that there insufficient space disc - 10 GIG necessary.  The drive I'm migration towards had 240 available concerts.  I tried to reformat the drive and emptied of all other files so that its complete 250 concerts are available, but the process still hangs on to 8% with the same message - not enough disk space.  Can someone give me an idea as to what is the problem?

  What is the format of the second internal drive where the library s iPhoto stored? How many free space your main internal drive there? What is your iPhoto library

  And since there is no single move procedure and what you are doing is not working, it would be useful for you to actually share the procedure that you use
