Problems using Origin

Post by FMG1991 »

Hi :)

I am using Wine for the first time as i need Origin at the university.
I still have some difficulties.

1. Origin always puts some Data into my home folder. How can i tell it to put them somewhere else?

2. I can't drag data into Origin or from Origin into other programs.
Do you have any idea how to change this or how to get my data into the program?

Sorry for my noob questions, i don't know wine very well and don't know what to look for in the internet.

thanx :)

Most likely it's using one of default shell directories that Wine maps to your home. You can change that via winecfg, integration tab.

Make sure you running latest Wine version (wine-1.3.25). If you do, then your data is not supported by Wine's DnD.

I'm not running the latest version, i'll change that tomorrow.

I changed the shell-folders, but that didn't help.
When i start Origin i get the following message, that i don't understand:

Code: Select all

fixme:shdocvw:PersistStreamInit_InitNew (0x807aa50)
err:ole:ITypeInfo_fnInvoke did not find member id -514, flags 0x2!
err:ole:ITypeInfo_fnInvoke did not find member id -504, flags 0x2!
fixme:storage:create_storagefile Storage share mode not implemented.
XIO:  fatal IO error 35 (Resource temporarily unavailable) on X server "/tmp/launch-QuArLm/org.x:0"
      after 316 requests (316 known processed) with 9 events remaining.
After changing the shell-folder i got the following:

Code: Select all

err:ole:ITypeInfo_fnInvoke did not find member id -514, flags 0x2!
What does it mean?

Thanks for helping! :)
