I recently added my old mac hard drive to a new macbook with an SSD as my main OSX drive. I am having trouble with permissions in viewing my old hard drive, when I save a permission when I reboot the full access is changed again . What is the best way to get complete access to my old hd installed in my new Macbook?

Open the Get Info window for the old drive. Click the Lock icon on the bottom of that window and type in your password. In the permissions area click the Plus sign ( + ) and Add your Username to it and set it to Read & Write. Close that window. you should now have full access to all the files.

What is the BEST way to get my macbook with lion on it, to communicate with my Canon 40D camera? It says the utility disk is a PowerPC app and that is no longer supported. What do I do now? I can't upload photos from my camera.

What is the best way to port complete applications from DEV - Test - PRD?

Hi,
One of my customers recently asked me, Supposing I do the complete integrations and modelling in SOA Suite on the DEV Environment. Then,
What is the best way to port complete applications from DEV -> Test -> PROD ??
Also, since the URLs in use in the DEV environment would be very different from other environments, what is the easiest way to maintain them, and to build in Access Control mechanisms ?

Hi AJ,
Nice PDF !
Though the PDF does give a basic idea as to how we can go about the deployments using ANT and EM in Test and Prod, it doesn't really give extensive details. For eg. ANT would obviously need huge ANT scripts to be written for migrations to multiple Test servers, etc.
Similarly, when we talk about EM, does it mean each of the services has to be manually deployed on Production ?
I am sure we would be looking more towards a fully automated solution. No ?
Best Regards

since the URLs in use in the DEV environment would be very different from other environments, what is the easiest way to maintain them, and to build in Access Control mechanisms ?You may use deployment plan for this purpose. For access control, you may use Role Based access of Weblogic and EM. Please refer -

What is the best way to get rid of unwanted footage permanently

I have to shot for the bin on some projects working without a script. I then can be under considerable time pressure to get something out so don't have time to to review properly during the log and transfer process as I might have multiple projects going on. What is the best way to get rid of the useless footage for good. An example is in iMovie you can mark footage as trash and then empty the trash and it trims the original clip for good, very good for saving hard drive space on the move.
Any ideas how to d this in FCP????
Have thought about the whole media manger thing but must admit to ignoring this aspect so far. Do it by moving selected clips in a project in media manager????
Have googled this to death... Thanks for all your time.

Yep,
Media Manager is the way to go.
Read the manual aout it.
It is all explained in there.

What is the best way to get my pictures from a memory stick to my iPad?

What is the best way to get my pictures from a memory stick to my iPad?

Technically, they will import off your flash drive....if it's one of the models that work (maybe 50% do) and if they meet the very rigid naming convention that the iPad insists on.
It's far easier to use a computer then either sync them on via iTunes, e-mail them to yourself or upload them to something like dropox, then download them onto your device.

What is the best way to get another object's method to update my GUI?

package stuff;
import java.awt.event.*;
import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.*;
public class Test extends JFrame{
private static JButton ProcessButton = new JButton();
private static JLabel jLabel2 = new JLabel();
public static void main( String args []){
     Test f = new Test();
     f.setSize(500,500);
     Container c = f.getContentPane();
     ProcessButton.addActionListener( new ActionListener(){
                                 public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
                                    jLabel2.setText("Connecting to DB");
                                    //Connection connection = Tools.setUpConnectionToDB(url,userName,pwd);
     c.add(ProcessButton, BorderLayout.NORTH);
     jLabel2.setText("My Label");
     c.add(jLabel2, BorderLayout.SOUTH);
     f.setVisible(true);
{\code]
The method setUpConnectionToDB can take 1 - 10 mins to complete. By this time a user will prob have quit my app thinking
it's crashed because it doesn't update the GUI with a progress status. :(
What is the best way to get this method to update the GUI of the app which calls it?
Something like Connection connection = Tools.setUpConnectionToDB(url,userName,pwd, this);
ie this being a reference to the GUI's JFrame is what I'm trying to use?

A handy class to know about but not really what I'm after.
I need the method call
Tools.setUpConnectionToDB(url,userName,pwd);
to be able to update a component ( The JLabel ) on the GUI
Connection connection = Tools.setUpConnectionToDB(url,userName,pwd, this);
[\code]
method defn:public static Connection setUpConnectionToDB( String url, String user, String pwd, JFrame f ){
//Why doesn't this code below modify the GUI on the calling App?
f.jLabel2.setText("Setting UP DB Connection");
f.repaint();
Connection c = null;
try{
Class.forName("sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver");
c = DriverManager.getConnection(url,user,pwd);
catch(ClassNotFoundException e){
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null , "Error loading DB driver");
System.exit(0);
catch(Exception e){
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null , "Error connecting to DB, check config file");
System.exit(0);
return c;
}[\code]

HT1349 I lost/had my iPhone stolen. Tried using Find My iPhone and it's offline. It was set up. What do I do now? Do I report it stolen? What is the best way in getting back my iPhone if any? Thank you in advance.

Tried using Find My iPhone and it's offline. It (Find my iPhone) was set up. What do I do now? Do I report it stolen? What is the best way in getting back my iPhone if any? Thank you in advance.

Find My iPhone is good for misplaced iPhone but not good for thief and it was never meant to be.
You chance of getting it back is very small.
There are a few things you can try.
Try remote lock/wipe your iPhone through Find My iPhone.

You can report to the police, cell carrier (expensive cell charges for international calls, roaming etc)
Change all the passwords used in iPhone: Apple ID, E-mail, Bank Account ....

Iphone 4s coming friday, what is the best way to get the notes content from iphone 4 to 4s without doing a restore? i want the new phone to be totally new but not sure how to get notes content across.

What is the best way to get the notes content from iphone 4 to 4s without doing a restore? i want the new phone to be totally new but not sure how to get notes content across. If I do a restore as I have when previously from one iphone to another it has shown (in settings, usage) the cumulative usage from previous phones so all the hours of calls on all previous iphones will be displayed even though its brand new. Anyone know how I can get my notes (from standard iphone notes app) to my new iphone 4s without restoring from previous iphone 4. Thanks for any help offered.

First, if you haven't updated to iTunes 10.5, please update now as you will need it for the iPhone 4S and iOS 5.
Once you're done installing iTunes 10.5, open it. Connect your iPhone to iTunes using the USB cable. Once your iPhone pops up right click on it. For example: an iPhone will appear and it will say "Ryan's iPhone."
Right click on it and select "Backup" from the dropdown menu. It will start backing up. This should backup your notes.
Please tell me if you have any problems with backing up.
Once you backup and get your iPhone 4S, you must follow these steps. If you don't follow these steps, you will not be able to get your notes on your new iPhone 4S.
Open up iTunes again then right click on your device (iPhone 4S). Once you do you will see a dropdown menu. It will say "Restore from Backup..." Select this and it'll ask for a backup, select it from the dropdown menu. For example "Ryan's iPhone - October 12, 2011." Pick that and it will restore to your backup. Do this when you get your iPhone 4S so you will not lose anything. Even though you're restoring, you're getting back, since you're getting the previous settings, notes, contacts, mail and other settings from your old iPhone. You'll still have Siri though! So, restore when you first get it. Also frequently backup your device, as it will be worth it. You can restore from a backup if something goes wrong or save your data for a future update.
Once you do that, you should have your notes on your new iPhone 4S and iOS 5.
Please tell me if you need any help.
I hoped I answered your questions and solved your problem!

HT4260 I have an AirPort Extreme and a linksys router. What is the best way to get 6-8 wired connections with ac speeds?

I have an AirPort Extreme and a linksys router. What is the best way to get 6-8 wired connections with ac speeds?
Appreciate your assistance.

The answer depends on whether the AirPort Extreme is your main router....or...the Linksys device is your main router.
In either case, the two devices must connect together using a wired Ethernet connection using CAT5e or CAT6 cabling.
Any version of the AirPort Extreme produced within the last 5 years will have Gigabit Ethernet ports. In order to get the same speeds from the Linksys router, it will also need to be Gigabit Ethernet capable.
If you need additional Ethernet ports, you will need to add a Gigabit Ethernet switch to either the AirPort Extreme or Linksys router.
It is assumed that your other devices connecting to the AirPort Extreme and Linksys router will also have Gigabit Ethernet capability.
Not sure why you mention "ac" speeds in your post. This relates to wireless connections, not wired.

What is the best way to get a time capsule to work with a new network name?

Well it seems that you did not explain to us the full story. Did you change ISP's or something? Why would it not show up anymore?
What colour is the light on the time-capsule? If it's blinking amber, then you probably need to do a factory-reset. That should get it to show up again in AirPort Utility.
