Hello

Are you logged on as ADMINISTRATOR?

And you have used ALL of these methods? I've never seen fail if possible.

You might want to check with the manufacturer of your system's support, their documentation online
and drivers and ask in their forums (if any) of known issues.

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

If you have tried ALL the previous methods, try a repair facility that allows to keep
the programs and data even if redundant backups are always a good idea - then try again
the previous methods. (It is less likely to help if all other methods have not been used.
as the same parameters and conditions would still be present.)

  • The icon is grayed out SAVE and SAVE AS option does not work in my Acrobat Adobe Reader ms

    The record command is grayed out when I open a .pdf document in the Acrobat Reader from Adobe viewer. I used to "save under" once opened, but now this command does not work properly, I think it happened after an updated operating system (windows 10), so I thought it was related to her, but I can tell...

    The keyboard Short-Shift-CTRL-S does not work either... but he used to work and it works with other .doc or .odt files

    The point is: why could I do save and save as when already have the open PDF (pdf viewer) before and now this button is grayed out and cannot save or save as the name more? I do nothing wrong using Acrobat Adobe Reader DC, because I do exactly the same thing about what I was doing, and it always worked, so now it's something different...

    Help, please!

    Thanks in advance!

    Thanks much Sharma Shivan!

    Magically, it worked for me, when I followed the link that you offer...!

  • Prelude CC - analyze the content/history integration grayed out

    I'm excited to try the new integration of history, but the ability to use the embedded script is grayed out for me.  I don't have much experience with history, maybe if I put in place the file or the bad formatting:

    I created a new Film Script in history. (I do not see anywhere to create a script of transcript)

    I gave him a basic heading title.

    Courses in prelude, I opened this document in the history panel and he fell on the clip.

    When you click on analyze content, the window that appears does not give me the option of using the built-in script.  (See attachment)

    Any idea?  I hope just a user error.  Looking forward to use it.

    By the way... so excited by this new version - absolute favorite application in the suite and it has gotten a ton better.  Can't wait to try all the new features... Great job Wes and team...

    Screen Shot 2013-06-18 at [Jun 18] 3.47.57 PM.png

    The script must be properly formatted in the history for this function to work.  I had difficulties to get a transcript (or any block of text) to be used in the analysis of speech.  Even if you use a text file from a transcript, it must be formatted in a model of Film Script with the appropriate formatting. If you already have a good script with the stars of the scene, characters and dialogue, you should be fine.  If you have a block of text (from the transcript, for example) you must follow these steps:

    1. History, create a new document as a movie Script by using the model of Film.
    2. You can clear the title page of the template that it creates for you.
    3. Give the document a scene heading (make sure it is formatted in scene section in the drop down for formatting) it will be used as title do you see for the prelude document.  It can be any description you want - it doesn't have to follow the conventions of scenarios. (IE INT-Office - DAY)
    4. Add a character name. (Once again, shaped as a character in the format drop-down list)  I use the name of the object of the interview for the transcripts.
    5. Paste the text of the transcript.
    6. Depending on where the cursor was when you pasted in it, the body of the transcript is perhaps already formatted as dialogue.  If this is not the case, select all and change to the dialog box in the drop-down list format.
    7. Record.
    8. As a prelude, open the Adobe Story Panel under the window menu.
    9. Connection.
    10. Click project, and then double-click the document that you created in the history.
    11. The name of the document (under stage) drag the clip that you want to associate the text to.  It will create a new badge icon to display the clip is linked to a script.
    12. Right-click on the clip and choose analyze content...
    13. If your script has been formatted correctly, you should be able to check the box "Use a built-in Adobe Story Script."
    14. Click OK and SOUL will process the file and add markers to the transcript of the speech to clip from the transcript of the story.
    15. Now, when you send the first, you can work with the clip using text - search, add in/out points using the word, etc.  Very powerful and useful.

    Of course, you can do all this without a script/transcription, but the quality of the transcription of the SOUL will vary widely by the audio file being used.

  • AutoCorrect and highlight the option enabled and grayed out in Windows 10

    Everytime I type something in my language, I get my words highlighted in red and it is really annoying. I went looking for options to turn it off, the only thing I found was this setting in the screenshot that is grayed out, activated, and I can not turn off but it is grayed out.

    There is a link that says "go to your PC settings" and it goes to a tutorial that shows how to turn off the AutoCorrect and spell checking. However, this is for Windows 8.1 and these measures do not result in Windows 10. I tried searching for him everywhere and he just does not exist in Windows 10.

    Someone knows how to turn off this annoying thing?
