I can't get started - I have downloaded GIMP 2.8 but can't get it running as I get this error message:
"USER Installation Failed.
The GIMP user installation failed; see the log for details. It appears that you are using GIMP for the first time. GIMP will now create a folder named '/Users /andrzejnowosielski/Library/Application Support/GIMP/2.8' and copy some files to it.

I am using a Max with OSX version 10.7.5..I have checked all the relevant folders and made them all Read Write..I have tried making the relevant folders manually and re-starting GIMP but same message.
I'm using Lion, and to install the Leopard version of GIMP. I'm getting an error message, and don't know what action to take:
Unable to open a test swap file.
To avoid data loss, please check the location and permissions of the swap directory defined in your Preferences (currently "/Users/myname/Library/Application Support/Gimp").
Start up Gimp and get an error message as follows:
Unable to open swap file. GIMP has run out of memory and cannot use the swap file. Some parts of your images may be corrupted. Try to save your work using different filenames, restart GIMP and check the location of the swap directory in your Preferences.
When I check preferences, the path to the swap file is not correct. My path is user to Application to Application Support to Library to Gimp.
I am running Autocad 2012 and I tried to use the block swap command under the Express Tools. After selecting the block that I want to replace, I get an error stating that the block name contains an invalid character. The name contains invalid characters. The name is: DomeCamera_WallMount, but in the command bar it says object name:*U302. The * is what Autocad doesn't like.
I didn't know what to expect but when performance went from bad to worse and each click on LR resulted in (not responding), I became very concerned. I did research and couldn't find anything so I looked at my swap file and tweaked it. I added swap files to all of my drives, physical and virtual. For now that seems to be working.
I have created a psd file with GIMP (version 2.6.11) which I have created myself, opened and saved several times.
Today I try to continue my work on this file and I got error 17718 when trying to open the file. I have never opened this file with another application than GIMP.
- How can I prevent it from happening again?- Most importantly: How can I repair the file, so that my work is not lost?
I have GIMP 2.6 installed under Windows xp. When I try to open an .eps file, I get this error:
Error starting Ghostscript. Make sure that Ghostscript is installed and - if necessary - use the environment variable GS_PROG to tell GIMP about its location.
(Failed to execute child process (No such file or directory))
I then downloaded Ghostscript and went thru its regular Windows installation routine. I get the same error in GIMP trying to open an .eps file. How to set the variable GS_PROG and can't find instructions for this variable in the on-line GIMP manual.
The full my message I get is: "Error loading PSD file: Unsupported compression mode: 65409", do you know why? Is the file corrupted? Is there any way to recover it?
I don't have Photoshop, by the way. I use .psd format because I work on both GIMP and SAI. I tried to open it at SAI, but there were nothing but lines. The colors went missing.
I really don't want to lost the file, since this is something I work on for months. I can't redraw all the thing I drew since the deadline is in the end of May!
Previously, I had been able to add .aco color palettes to GIMP and use them. But they are suddenly no longer in my palettes menu and I'm getting this error for each one I had added (and used before):
Fatal parse error in palette file 'C:UsersChristina.gimp-2.8palettesTransitional.aco': Missing magic header.
I am new to gimp and after using the program yesterday afternoon I went in to do some more work on the document and got the following error message: "Error loading PSD file: Unsupported Compression Mode: Error #43775. How to get this file opened? I was Opening As Layers.
I recently bought some brushes for Photoshop, knowing I could use them on gimp, but I keep receiving this message:
Failed to load data:
Fatal parse error in brush file 'C:Program FilesGIMP 2sharegimp2.0rushesKyleMegapack.abr': unable to decode abr format version 14402.
I'm not sure what is wrong. My best guess is that the Photoshop version this was made for is not compatible with Gimp 2.8.10. The guy who made these brushes (Kyle T Webster) said that Photoshop CS5 or higher is required. The brush set was only $13, so I'm not really worried about the money, but is there any way I can use these brushes, or will I have to wait for a Gimp update or something?
I am unable to save an image as a jpg file!!! every time I try, I get the following error: "Not A Regular File"
I can save as png, but not jpg!!! the original format was psd, that error message came up when saving as jpg... when I saved as png, I closed Gimp and reopened the png file, but I STILL get that error message when saving as jpg!!
I am getting a Could not open due to unexpected end of file error messages on a bunch of jpg's I am receiving via email. The files open in Microsoft Office Picture Manager.
I'm trying to create a digital layout in PSCS version 8.0, and when I go to save the psd file (very early stages of the creation...its not very large yet) I get an error that says "Unable to save (file name) because of a disc error". I've never seen this before and am trying not to panic, but I'm on a deadline! LOL And am running behind as usual!
I am using an older mac, and I'm pretty dang maxed out on Gb...gotta clean up some files, but having a hard time finding a free dup file finder for macs...so I'm procrastinating, basically. Could the fact that I've got very little Gb available left have something to do with this?
I have been re-saving many of my PSD files using CS3 image prosesssor with compatibility mode turned off. They have simply been saved again as PSD files into a different folder - no changes to the original PSD files. This has worked well and reduced file sizes by up to 50% (I had compatibility mode turned on previously).
of the 60 files I have processed, 3 will no longer open , I get a message that says "file will not open due to a program error."
these files have only ever been used in CS3. , they are quite large from just under 1GB to 1.5GB, however other similar large files have processed successfully. I have re-tried without success.
I still have the original files so no data loss is involved.
I have done a photomerge in PS CS6 of two birds in flight as the wings are clipped. The images merge nicely but the problem is that the blurred bird has been placed on top of the sharp bird, i.e. the top layer (bird with blurred eye) is blocking the bottom sharp bird. I have clicked and dragged the bottom layer to the higher position on the layers panel but the images do not swap positions.
i've to list all layers and objects in the drawing. I've got 2 checkedlistbox, one for layers, the second for objects.I've got 2 buttons, one up, one down, for swaping order. I've no problem with objects, but it seems a little more complicated with layers.I use this code to swap:
Using tr As Transaction = db.TransactionManager.StartTransaction Dim id1 As ObjectId = listLayerID(CB_List_Layer.SelectedIndex)Dim id2 As ObjectId = listLayerID(CB_List_Layer.SelectedIndex + 1) Dim first As DBObject = tr.GetObject(id1, OpenMode.ForWrite)Dim sec As DBObject = tr.GetObject(id2, OpenMode.ForWrite) first.UpgradeOpen()first.SwapIdWith(id2, True, True) tr.Commit() end using
id1 is the ID of the first layer, and id2 the id of the second layer. ListLayerId contains IDs of all layers. CB_List_Layer is my CheckedListbox.When is swap 2 layers, it don't swap objects in the layers. (ex : What i've got now :
Obj1, Obj2 in layer0 and Obj3, Obj4 in layer1 SWAP Obj1,obj2 in layer1 and obj3,obj4 in Layer0.It's not what i want. I want : Obj3,Obj4 in layer1 and Obj1,Obj2 in layer0)
I have one pic of my mom and dad. I just want to swap the heads of my mom and dad. I keep trying and I have created a new layer. But when I cut my dads head and move it and then try to cut my moms head I can't go back to my dad's head and move it to where I want it.
Basically at some point or another, maya swaps back to the default hotkey layout. Im not quite sure how or why. Sometimes it takes an hour before the problem arrives, other times minutes. Its not permanent tho, restarting the app will fix it.
I've tried deleting second language, installing keyboard software, searching for alternative pref. files etc., and no, capsLock is not on ^^.
I have 2 files and I'd like to copy a titleblock from a template drawing and use it to replace an existing titleblock on an in progress drawing. The titleblock on the in progress drawing has attributes, and I'd like to keep them when I put in the new titleblock. The attribute tag names between the 2 titleblocks are the same.
I do not know the exact names of the titleblocks, only that they contain the words "title block" somewhere in their name.
I've developed for Inventor for a while now, but I'm completely new to AutoCAD. How might I go about this?
I believe the basic steps would be something like this:
1. Identify which object to copy from template sheet.
2. Save that object to memory
3. Identify object to replace in existing drawing
4. Copy attributes and get position of existing titleblock
5. Delete existing titleblock
6. Insert new titleblock and copy in attributes
I've taken the Autocad tutorials, and I've searched for relevant posts on ThroughTheInterface. Is there someplace else to look which might give a more in-depth example of what I'm trying to accomplish?
One of the problems we face in 2010 is the part labeling issue, where it labels the family name for a part and not the description name. The way to get around this was to do a swap part. Well for me when i lay out a storm network, i create it by pipes only and then swap the parts that i need to. The only flaw about this is that you can only do one swap part at a time.
Well if you go to civl3dreminder blog site there is a fix for that. I actually tried it and it worked. I was actually able to swap pipes and structures at the same time. This routine will definitely come in handy.
Swap parts is not working for my structures. When I swap a structure it becomes unselectable and if I close out the drawing and re-open it the part is gone. I am running C3d 2012 64 it with the latest SP. I've attached the drawing.
I try to do so by creating an axis transition and match the contents.
It just matched the whole clip with wrong in and out point.Then I try to swap something with the transition.It said two targets of the same type is required.
I just want to ask if its possible to swap or change the models wich are used by the new populate function? The texture can be changed when i overwrite the original ones in the temp folder. Is that true?
