How can 2 users collaborate real time on a Pages document?

I have two computers at home: an iMac and a macbook pro. We have no problem sharing document via the wireless Timecapsule network. Recently, as we have been deep in editing documents using Pages, we were trying to find out how to configure pages so that we can both edit the same document at the same time (collaboratively) and see each other's edits in real time as we progress. Google docs has this option but it's rather slow.
Is there an option to do this in Pages on a local network?
If no, do you know of any other Apple programs that let you collaborate on text document in real time?
Thank you.

Welcome to the forums!
Pages cannot do what you want. Most word processors can't. However, there are a few solution that can. SubEthaEdit is a collaborative text editor for the Mac, so it can handle this kind of task. It has received pretty positive reviews. You might also check out Collaborate, UNA (although this is more intended for software development), and Gobby.

Not from a document, but there are envelope templates in Pages you can use.

How can I get real time updates in multiple views when scrubbing through the timeline?

I am using After Effects CS 5.5 on Windows 7. When I use the mouse to click / drag / scroll through the timeline, one view updates in real time, this is great! If I open a second view, it only updates that view when I finish scrolling.
I would like to be able to scroll back and forth through the timeline, and have two different compositions update in real time (live update)?
Is this possible?
Thank you!

The long answer is: No. It's not even a performance issue, it's how AE evaluates time, since time is fluid and can be mangled in a million ways from time-remapping to expressions...

How can I get real-time audio (think Bloom from Brian Eno out of my ipad and into garageband on my mbp?

I'm a visual artist and an audio novice who would like capture some spontaneous Bloom or Scape musical noodlings. Since neither Bloom nor Scape allow users to save to a universal audio format, I'm hoping that there's a way for me to get those noodlings out of my iPad and into GrageBand on my MBP
Thanks, in advance, for any help

See Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.
While I agree that it would be nice if it was easier to transfer media from your Apple devices they should never be used as the sole location for any of your media. They are too easily lost, stolen, damaged, or corrupted. The user tip above also includes a link to a suggested library backup strategy so that you can avoid being in the same position in future.

How can I Load Real-Time XML into SWF

Hi,
I am a newbie and I need to load data from an XML file but the data is changed constantly. Is there a way to have the SWF refresh instead of caching the XML content at the first load.
My current code is as following:
var index:Number = 0;
var myxml:XML = new XML();
myxml.ignoreWhite = true;
myxml.onLoad = function(success:Boolean):Void{
          loadData();
          setInterval(loadData, 3000);
function loadData(){
          var messages:XMLNode = myxml.firstChild;
          if(index >= messages.childNodes.length)
                    index = 0;
          var my_message:XMLNode = messages.childNodes[index];
          _root.status_1.htmlText = my_message.childNodes[0].firstChild.nodeValue;
          _root.status_2.htmlText = my_message.childNodes[1].firstChild.nodeValue;
          _root.status_3.htmlText = my_message.childNodes[2].firstChild.nodeValue;
          _root.status_4.htmlText = my_message.childNodes[3].firstChild.nodeValue;
          _root.status_5.htmlText = my_message.childNodes[4].firstChild.nodeValue;
          _root.status_6.htmlText = my_message.childNodes[5].firstChild.nodeValue;
            index++;
myxml.load("data.xml");
BTW: the XML is going to be on a remote site.
Thanks

you can append a changing varialbe to the data.xml file name to prevent cache retrieval and you can use a loop to periodically load the data but your biggest issue will be loading a cross-domain xml file. you will need to add cross-domain policy files to the xml hosting site or use a server-side file to serve as a gateway between your swf and the xml file.

How Can I Determine the Size of the 'My Documents' Folder for every user on a local machine using VBScript?

Hello,
I am at my wits end into this. Either I am doing it the wrong way or it is not possible.
Let me explain. I need a vb script for the following scenario:
1. The script is to run on multiple Windows 7 machines (32-Bit & 64-Bit alike).
2. These are shared workstation i.e. different users login to these machines from time to time.
3. The objective of this script is to traverse through each User Profile folder and get the size of the 'My Documents' folder within each User Profile folder. This information is to be written to a
.CSV file located at C:\Temp directory on the machine.
4. This script would be pushed to all workstations from SCCM. It would be configured to execute with
System Rights
I tried the script detailed at:
http://blogs.technet.com/b/heyscriptingguy/archive/2005/03/31/how-can-i-determine-the-size-of-the-my-documents-folder.aspx
Const MY_DOCUMENTS = &H5&
Set objFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set objShell = CreateObject("Shell.Application")
Set objFolder = objShell.Namespace(MY_DOCUMENTS)
Set objFolderItem = objFolder.Self
strPath = objFolderItem.Path
Set objFolder = objFSO.GetFolder(strPath)
Wscript.Echo objFolder.Size
The Wscript.Echo objFolder.Size command in the script at the above mentioned link returned the value as
'0' (zero) for the current logged on user. Although the actual size was like 30 MB or so.
I then tried the script at:
http://www.experts-exchange.com/Programming/Languages/Visual_Basic/VB_Script/Q_27869829.html
This script returns the correct value but only for the current logged-on user.
Const blnShowErrors = False
' Set up filesystem object for usage
Set objFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set objShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
' Display desired folder sizes
Wscript.Echo "MyDocuments : " & FormatSize(FindFiles(objFSO.GetFolder(objShell.SpecialFolders("MyDocuments"))))
' Recursively tally the size of all files under a folder
' Protect against folders or files that are not accessible
Function FindFiles(objFolder)
On Error Resume Next
' List files
For Each objFile In objFolder.Files
On Error Resume Next
If Err.Number <> 0 Then ShowError "FindFiles:01", objFolder.Path
On Error Resume Next
FindFiles = FindFiles + objFile.Size
If Err.Number <> 0 Then ShowError "FindFiles:02", objFile.Path
Next
If Err.Number = 0 Then
' Recursively drill down into subfolder
For Each objSubFolder In objFolder.SubFolders
On Error Resume Next
If Err.Number <> 0 Then ShowError "FindFiles:04", objFolder.Path
FindFiles = FindFiles + FindFiles(objSubFolder)
If Err.Number <> 0 Then ShowError "FindFiles:05", objSubFolder.Path
Next
Else
ShowError "FindFiles:03", objFolder.Path
End If
End Function
' Function to format a number into typical size scales
Function FormatSize(iSize)
aLabel = Array("bytes", "KB", "MB", "GB", "TB")
For i = 0 to 4
If iSize > 1024 Then iSize = iSize / 1024 Else Exit For End If
Next
FormatSize = Round(iSize, 2) & " " & aLabel(i)
End Function
Sub ShowError(strLocation, strMessage)
If blnShowErrors Then
WScript.StdErr.WriteLine "==> ERROR at [" & strLocation & "]"
WScript.StdErr.WriteLine " Number:[" & Err.Number & "], Source:[" & Err.Source & "], Desc:[" & Err.Description & "]"
WScript.StdErr.WriteLine " " & strMessage
Err.Clear
End If
End Sub
The only part pending, is to achieve this for the 'My Documents' folder within each User Profile folder.
Is this possible?
Please help.

Here are a bunch of scripts to get folder size under all circumstances. Take your pick.

After a clean install, how can I continue using Time Machine?

After a clean install, how can I continue using Time Machine?
I booted from my recovery partition, erased my HD, installed the same OS, (Lion, 10.7.5) then restored from my TM.
If it asks if i want to use TM, I say yes. When I chose the drive, it seems to want to start all over, instead of just picking up where I left off.
Is there any way of picking up where I left off?

How can I find the time a site was accessed in Safari's history?

I know that Safari's "History" list is in reverse order, that is, most recently visited sites at the top of the list. How can I find the time a particular site was visited?

As of Safari 5.1.7 there does not appear to be a way to view the time in the browser, but it is still possbile to find from the raw history file. Open /Users/[yourusername]/library/Safari/History.plist in a text editor. Depending on how your text editor reads the file, you may see a lot of garbled text, but you should still be able to find the URL that you want the time for. After the URL you may see the page's title, but should also see a left square bracket followed by numbers.
Example:
_?http://www.apple.com/_Apple[377832904.6o
The integer is an Apple timestamp (number of seconds since 00:00:00 UTC on 1 January 2001). Find a timestamp calculator online to get the actual time for your timestamp. In the example above, Apple was visited on Dec 21 2012 at 17:35:04 PST.
Cheers.

You can create an array of clusters with one element being the time and the other being the voltage, like so (using the "Get Waveform Components" function):

How can I get my Time Capsule to show up in finder?

How can I get my Time Capsule to show up in finder?

An alternate, and simpler method for most users is to open any Finder window, then look for the Time Capsule icon under the Shared heading on the left side of the window.
When you click on the Time Capsule icon, a folder......named "Data", unless you have changed the name of the drive.....will appear to the right.
Double-click "Data" to mount the Time Capsule drive on the desktop, where you can now drag/drop or copy/paste data to the drive.
If the Time Capsule does not appear under the Shared heading when you open a Finder window......then you are likely using the Yosemite operating system on your Mac, and it will take some work to find it.
In that case, Niel's method might be the better way to go.

This seems a more user friendly option for thoes who are not ofay with IP addresses etc.

How can I open the 'time date browse button'?

Hello!
How can I open the 'time date browse dialog' from the time stamp control in my block diagram? I tryed it with the property node but couldn't find this item to open the 'time/date browse dialog'!
Thanks in advance for your help

There is no way to programitically bring up the dialog window for the timestamp control. I recommend building your own dialog window VI that will work by opening when you want the user to set the time and when it closes, it can programatically update the timestamp control. It will not be as pretty but it will be just as functional.

Mysql datetime datatype, from that datetime how can i compar only time part

Hello i have database table in mysql, there is Datetime datatype column, from that datetime how can i compare only time part .....??
Thanks in advance...

Note you can't simply just compare time via equality however.
Timestamp resolution is to the second or even milli-second. No user wants to match a time to an exact millisecond.
What they want is something like a match by hour - for example returning the number of transactions that happened from 1pm to 2pm. Even that isn't completely correct because then you need to consider whether 1pm and/or 2pm is inclusive or exclusive. Normally one end will be inclusive and the other exclusive.
So first you need to define what the period is.
Then construct the range.
Then pass the range and, as already mentioned, use specific functions to handle the extraction of the time.

Look at the more like this. On the right column next to the post.
Load airport utility for windows.. which will also load bonjour for windows.
In windows explorer type \\TCname or \\TCipaddress (replacing with the actual values.. names with spaces will give you trouble so change all names in the TC to SMB compatible or actual ip address).
