  5. SPIRIT OF IRELAND

    in Slideshows & AV Shows

    Posted

    Hi Maureen

    i have tried downloading for the mac and for some strange reason it won't let me extract the files, I've never had this trouble with one of your shows before, I don't think I am doing anything wrong, but I maybe as I'm newish to macs, any help you can offer would be appreciated.

    I have just tried another one of your shows and it works fine, when unzipping it unzips the show exe ready to play, the Ireland one unzips two different files that need to be extracted and I can't seem to be able to do that, don't know if this helps. Just checked these files and one is a 'Windows Self Extracting Archive' and the other is a 'Unix Executable File' I assume that these won't work on a mac.

    Kind regards

  8. Create show for Mac

    in General Discussion

    Posted

    Hi

    I'm using P2E 7.5.10,

    when I go to 'Publish Show/Executable file for mac' a pop up window appears telling me I need to upgrade to the Deluxe Edition, but if I carry on it creates the show anyway, but I can't get it to play on a MacBook Pro running the latest os,

    I have downloaded other peoples shows for the mac and they work just fine.

    If I go through the same process and create a show for the ipad I get the same pop up window, but again it creates the show and it plays on the iPad. (with a trial version banner)

    Am I doing something wrong with the Mac or do I need to upgrade to the latest deluxe edition, seems strange that it works for the ipad and not the mac.

    Any help given would be much appreciated.

    Many thanks

    Kind regards

    Paul

    PS if I go to 'Help about the name given is 'Pictures to Exe Deluxe 7.5.10' does this mean I have an original deluxe but not the latest version?

    Hi Barry

    I said I'd let you know what reply I received, well here it is, much as you expected me thinks.

    'I have not had a chance to pursue. As i mentioned, the Engineering team are not aware of any issues

    and it will be challenging to work out a problem within one or two environments out of our extremely large

    customer base.

    I am not sure what to suggest next.'

    Kind regards

    Hi Barry

    interesting to hear you mention the problem with the Lens Corrections,

    I had also found this to be just as you described.

    I have sent an email to the man I am in touch with at Adobe,

    at least I can tell him now that it is not just me who is having problems.

    You have described exactly the same symptoms that I am having, to a T.

    I will let you know what his answer is.

    Kind regards

    Hi Barry

    just bought an all singing all dancing pc at the beginning of the year, expecting this problem to go away, but it didn't.

    I have been in touch with Adobe and am still in touch with one of their head men in the UK.

    This is just a quick reply if you want to know more details let me know.

    What is the spec of your machine by the way, just for comparisons sake, please?

    This is the answer(below) I got from Adobe, not very helpful, that's why I am still in touch with the guy from Adobe UK, he is still trying to sort the problem.

    'The larger the monitor you use (and the higher resolution), the more work Lightroom does to calculate previews and update pixels when you make adjustments. If you experience performance slowdowns with large　monitors, try reducing resolution of the display using the Display Control Panel (Windows) or Displays System Preferences (Mac OS).

    The same is documented over here : http://helpx.adobe.com/lightroom/kb/optimize-performance-lightroom.html#main_Keep_standard_size_previews_as_small_as_possible'

    They also said if you reduce the size of your image on screen to 1:2 or 1:3 I think, I know I tried this or it may have been 1:4, but when I had reduced the size of the image on screen it worked, but it made a nonsense of having just bought a larger screen to see the image I was working on larger {It's the old eyes you know:-) )

    I know you are a Canon user, but I have more trouble with my Nikon files than I do with my Sony and Canon Raw files.

    Don't know if this is any use to you.

    Kind regards

    Hi

    thanks to Gayland and Eric glad you liked the show. Eric I'm humbled that you would consider it good enough to keep, if it gives you any ideas and helps you with the enjoyment of your hobby then that's nice to know.

    Lin, glad you liked the show too, interesting to hear that you have different views to Xaver, we are all different and like and see things in different ways,

    but I think that's great, if we all thought the same what a boring old lot we would be.

    Xaver, thanks for your comments they are very much appreciated, they are things that I will consider not only for this show but others in the future also.

    Thanks for pointing me to the post by Maureen, very interesting.

    I did try and repair the blown out highlights on the dog, but any more than this seemed to become very obvious, perhaps my technique is not so good?

    Thanks again to all for taking the time to reply

    Kind regards

    Hi

    this show is of a similar ilk to one I did a couple of years ago. All the photos are taken within a 20 mile radius of home, hence the title not far from home.

    Sorry but this is just a plain show with photographs and music, no great animation I'm afraid.

    If you wish, please feel free to comment.

    The show can be downloaded from my on line storage by clicking on the link below, where you will find a zipped file, NFFH2a

    http://sh.digitalvault.bt.com/invite/login?c=62616c64737061726b79&i=68375-133ddd89eb7-gemini04&t=7d88e9e91a58a11c&r=mg〈=en

    The show lasts about 3 mins 20 secs and is about a 20mb download.

    Many thanks

    Kind regards

    Hi

    tried again tonight and everything seems to be back to normal with fast navigation of the forum once again.

    No idea what caused the problem or why after nearly 2 weeks it has righted itself, just one of those things I guess.

    Thanks once again for all your hel;p

    Kind regards

    Thanks Lennart, I have tried Barry's site again this morning (Wednesday) and everything is ok, really fast download.

    Igor, I tried the other site you linked to and had no problems, I also tried the 'Submit a ticket' and it was really quick, also this morning I don't seem to be having the problems that I have been having for nearly a couple of weeks with the Wnsoft site, let's hope that this is the end of the matter. I will try again this evening when I come home from work and see how things are.

    Many thanks to all

    Kind regards

    Hi Paul

    thanks for the reply, interesting to note you are having problems with downloading the show, I am too. I am also with BT.

    I contacted my isp as Ken suggested, and even at his end he had trouble navigating the forum pages here (Wnsoft) but he had no trouble with downloading the show at Barry's site.

    Paul do you have any problems with the forum here eg slow loading of pages?

    Kind regards

    Hi Ken

    thanks for you reply.

    I've done as you have suggested in your post on my laptop and although it is much improved it is still slow on opening some pages including me signing in to make this reply and had to wait for the reply box to open. I had no problem opening your link to the sun.

    Thanks again for your help will let you know if anything changes, for the better or worse.

    Kind regards

    Paul
