    Your machine is still under warranty, so you should take it to your local Apple store for repairs. Function late in January, you bought it, you still have phone without support. If you can't find any help on the Apple Store, then I don't know what you expect to find here. We have no way to check for problems you have described or any additional hardware, etc.

    Looking for help to find articles or resources to learn more about how to migrate to a new computer and also upgrade CS5 to CC at the same time. Should I migrate and upgrade?

    You don't want to think in terms of migration when it comes to Adobe software.  You must install using installation files.  There is no need to have installed CS5 unless you plan to use it.  There is no way to upgrade of CS5 at CC, there is a reduced plan should soon be interrupted.  You get the first annual subscription for almost half of the normal price.

  • Site Recovery Manager is certified for the recovery of the database?

    Hi all

    I is currently exploring the possibility of using the Site Recovery Manager for database DR scenarios.

    Before you go more away and actually try to run some scenarios, I'd be interested if someone of you has tried to do the same thing and if you actually managed to go beyond the situation of disaster, i.e. with primary VM [stop] down, then activating the VM DR.

    Another important aspect, I would be interested is the certification: the Site Recovery Manager is certified for the recovery of the VMS running databases?

    And if so, what data is it certified by: Oracle 10/11, SQL Server 2005/2008, DB2 9.x, etc.?

    If the answers are well known to my question, please just point me to the right source by a link - that should be enough.

    Thank you

    At EMC, we use this definition (which is fairly common):

    Uniform crash means that all devices in a given consistency group are writing order in line at a point in time.  If an application can recover from an accident, such as would be seen with a power failure or any other event of failure, then the application can recover from failover.

  • The goal of the "VMware-mount Service for Site Recovery Manager" Service?

    Hello

    We experienced a problem return to SAN replication recently after the maintenance of software packages. When we stopped all services SRM replication started. We could then restart RS and everything was fine. One of the services that we had to stop was the "VMware ride Service for Site Recovery Manager. This does not normally work however and the start is set to manual. I made several test stimulus plans last weekend and has never seen work. Anyone know what is this service?

    Thank you

    Mike

    There literally this name...?

    Normally, the Assembly in vCenter service is used by sysprep/deploy process...

    Sysprep is used by SRM as one of the methods for re-IP-ing a VM, I think we can assume the of the same kind of service, but for a different purpose...

  • New to ID and you are looking for help in getting started

    Hello

    New ID, he bought the other day. Working with Adobe Creative Suite, DW, FW, PS and Flash sort.

    I ID like and would like to do some stationery namely cards biz, creation of letterhead etc..

    Someone at - it a good video tutorials on this subject they might recommend.

    ID "seems to" work a little differently to how I thought, only had a little go, so think I need a little time to see on how to use it.

    I find Adobe go of in for details, I'm just after the bases of the creation of the first stationery then will work in my view some of the other features it seems to offer.

    Thanks in advance.

    PNG is not the best possible format for images for printing, but much will depend on how the printing will be done. In general terms, printing images must be much higher tose Quen resolution used for screen display. To print on a desktop device you will want to "effective" resolution (resolution to the size, it will be printed, not the size, it has been saved) somewhere around 150-200 dpi for continuous-tone images. The press usually to 250-350 ppi. Line art must be in the range of 1200 dpi.

    Text is colored by applying a sample or using the color Panel. If you look at the color chart or the color Panel, or next to the colored boxes to the bottoom of the Toolbox, you will see a pair of buttons, one that looks like a T and another that looks like a square. When the T key on the color will be applied to the text. When the sqare button is active, it will apply to the frame. The two colored boxes represent the (solid box) fill color and stroke color (hollow box) and the one in front is active, similar to the foreground/background in Photoshop.

    Color for printing is quite tricky and depends on the method of printing once more. On a desktop device or a color copier, you can be pretty free with what you use (but don't expect an exact match for a spot color - or any other color if your monitor isn't calibrated and you don't have an output profile good - but this is a whole different debate), but on a press, you use either CMYK , which requires 4 plates and costly for small series or tones, each of them also require a separate plate, but are ideal for the type of color and logos.

    Take the advice of Bob. Spend time to Lynda.com and try to learn as much as you can about printing, too, if you want to work in color. More you know about the ink on paper easier design and the use of will become ID. If you can find a class at the local Community College or adult education, try also. InDesign is in fact a very complex program.

  • While blue screens as windows starts and looking for help!

    Hello world

    I'm a big computer noob and I don't know much about it that's why I will ask my questions here, to get help from people who do not know how to solve this problem. So please try to explain it very easily so I can understand you.

    Let's head on the problem; Sometimes my computer completely random stops and restarts immediately after that it stops. It is not a normal shutdown, but it's as if I pressed the button stop or restart button, it stops immediately. To this problem in the past, but well, months when I started my PC upward once again, everything was going well, then I thought it was OK to use my PC with that bit of inconvenience. But yesterday my PC did the same thing but when I clicked on "Start windows normally" it appeared a blue screen which lasts only 0.5 seconds and disappears after it restarts my computer again. Then when I tried to start windows with recoveryoptions it gives me, after windows files have been loaded, another blue screen that doesn't go away until I have shut myself. I tried to boot my PC with a windows CD, but when I did it wat windows departure after loading files and then showed a blue screen.

    Information:

    -Windows 7

    -Asrock H61M-GS is the first thing with a menu of options when I start my PC.

    ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    A picture is to make it more clear

     <-- first="" i="" see="" when="" starting="">

    It is one of the blue screens, I was yesterday. But he continues to change when I do something different. Thus, the blue screens are not the same and error codes keep starting with 0x000000 but the last 2 digits change sometimes.

    I really hope that someone can help me... And if you're Dutch like me you can answer in Dutch... Would be easier for me to understand :D

    Sincerely,

    Etienne KT

    Problem solved. Taken from the video card of the computer and back in and it worked.

  • Looking for help with the motion in still menus of EI.

    Need help to make a menu driven sequelae. can understand the import process in yet. I can't the buttons I did in AE to work. Anyone?

    Read this (but do not have your plan until you read the link at the end of the post):

    http://help.Adobe.com/en_US/Encore/CS/using/WSF49EA5DB-3743-49C2-9831-F66328B192F8.html

    The important part is:

    «The loop point is used first to disable the buttons.» Until the loop is reached, the Viewer cannot select or activate a button. The menu returns to this point on each repetition, so the buttons are disabled when the menu is displayed first. For rehearsals, the duration is shorter and the starting point for all video content in the menu is offset. »

    So in AE, you create a video (the substance of the application) which includes the image of the buttons as they fly in. Still is the addition of highlights. AE for a period of time could also create layers of button, but you will be less confused if you use Photoshop and again for the file menu itself.

    I forgot to give you this link for help, which is the help file to work with AE:

    http://help.Adobe.com/en_US/Encore/CS/using/WSA5513911-0AD1-440C-BDAD-2E0E806B425E.html

    This method begins with a menu into Encore and creates an AE composition from there. It can only work with AE CS6, since you have EN CS6. I don't remember if it is technically a form of dynamic link, which requires corresponding versions of the applications.

    There are a lot of ways to skin this cat.

    Hello

    -My site only appears when I type the url in the search bar, but not when some clicks on the link, or appear on google or yahoo, well I created Meta tags and enrolled.
    The URL of the site (freespace.virgin.net/andy.fernie) will change to another in the next few days because it does not reflect the site at all, she was supposed to never be temporary, this might be the reason?

    -L' another problem I'm having with it is alignment, for one reason or another every time that I add text, pictures etc the title main title / photos shifts to the right... what would cause this?
