What's the best PDA to use with iSync/Powerbook

My old sony clie finally died and I need to get a new PDA. Can anyone give me advice on the simplest PDA that is known to work well with a Mac platform? I had been using documents to go in order to hotsync my palm-based PDA in the past, but things may have changed.

Powerbook G4 17   Mac OS X (10.3.9)  

I have heard the same. Thanks to the link you referenced to me I know that I shouldn't need any further software to use a Palm device with iSync (unlike when I discovered that I needed Mark/Soft in order to sync my Clie). I am trying to decide between the basic Palm Z22 and the more advanced Palms. It would make a big difference if one could link directly from the iLife 06 suite to a Palm - it would make purchasing the fancy color screens on the more expensive Palms worth it to be able to carry around the family photo album.

  • What is the best programme to use with iwatermark or similiar copyright software

    I want to watermark my photos, I have been told iwatermark is real good but can someone tell me what is the best app to use in conjunction with copyrighting or watermarking sofware.
    Thanks

    It’s really a personal choice. I’ve recently bought a new Dell. Like you I was not interested in the consumer products so I purchased a business spec machine and I’m very happy with it. It’s Dell Precision T3600 with Intel Xeon CPU and Nvidia Quadro 2000 graphics card. Running Windows 7 Pro 64 bit with 8gb RAM. I got 1TB and 500gb drives both 7500 rpm with a 3TB Seagate external HD. I gave SSD a miss until prices drop further. I don’t think the extra speed is that relevant to Photo editing although perhaps more relevant to video rendering. I’m also not gaming or running other apps that might benefit from an SSD. Photoshop Elements is a 32 bit program which runs well on 64 bit systems but cant use more than 1.5 to 2GB of RAM. Premiere Elements has 64 bit support and can therefore take advantage of the extra RAM. At the end of the day it’s your choice.

  • HT202665 What are the best Discs to use with my Apple USB SuperDrive?

    HHi,
    i have an Apple USB SuperDrive, would like to know which are the best Blank Discs to use please, I live in the United Kimgdom

    I don't use so many disks nowadays but when we do, I really only try to make sure they are a recognised brand (Phillips, Maxwell, TDK etc etc), technology has moved on from having to worry about which you use. I would avoid brands you've never heard of though.

  • What is the best stylus to use with the iPad Air?

    I'm looking for a stylus to use for the iPad Air to use for sketching and just simple note taking And from the reviews I've read it sounded like the Adonit Jot Pro for 29.99 seemed like a good deal to use for the iPad Air. I'm also a worrywart about if it will harm the screen? So I'm looking for someone's review with their experience using "The Adonit Jot Pro on the iPad Air." Thanks so much For your time and review!

    I've never had a problem with it. I like it a lot for writing. I like the very fine point. I don't know as it's a great stylus for sketching, though. I tend to do most of my sketching in the app Paper with their Pencil stylus.
    When using any stylus, it's good practice to make sure there are no bits of grit on the screen before using. If they should become trapped between the stylus tip and the screen, you could get scratches.

  • What is the best projector to use with a macbook air

    Need a trouble free projector to use with my macbook air for showing photos and business documents , excel eyc.

    If you don't mind connecting the projector directly to the Mac with an HDMI cable, any projector with an HDMI input will work. There are a very large variety to choose from. Projector People is a competent vendor that I have used and can recommend. They are knowledgeable about Macs. Describe your needs and they will make recommendations. Their prices are as good as you are likely to find anywhere else.
    You will also need a Thunderbolt to HDMI adapter. Purchase one from Monoprice. They are less than $10.

  • What is the BEST thing to do with my PowerBook?  Any Help?

    Hi there,
    I have a Powerbook G3/400 - the older one with the bronze keyboard - that has OS 10.1.5. I was told by someone previously that I had what is called a "Pismo" system, which is apparently good. It is a great computer - I have had no problems.
    Here is my quandry, however. I got an iPod for Christmas and want to use it. The iPod requires a minimum of 10.2.8. I am aware that with the "Pismo" system and the amount of memory I have, I can upgrade all the way to the Tiger OS. My question is, do I WANT to do this?
    I was also told that with my older system, Tiger would take up a lot of memory and it would probably be best to completely wipe out my Hard Drive and put Tiger on after that. Fine - sounds like that could be done.
    Question is this: Is it wiser to go ahead and go with Tiger, being that it is very stable and the best of the OS X's so far? Does anyone know FOR SURE if my system will support it? Will it make me run slow because it takes up so much memory? Or, do I find a copy of OS 10.2 or 10.3 on eBay, for example, and go with those to possibly save me some memory and speed issues? Will I see problems with 10.2 or 10.3 being unstable and finicky?
    Any help that someone has would be greatly appreciated.
    Suzanne

    Suzanne,
    Despit Tom's protestations there's no reason Tiger should not run well on your Pismo. If you don't have an external Firewire drive, then I suggest you get one and use it to make a bootable backup of your current system. You can do that using Carbon Copy Cloner (www.versiontracker.com.) Just take some basic precautions. Before making the bootable backup boot from your 10.1 Installer CD. As soon as the installer finishes loading select Disk Utility from the Installer menu. After DU loads select your OS X startup volume from the list on the left, then click on the First Aid tab in the DU main window, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors it has fixed then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. Quit DU, then quit the installer. If you have 10.1.5 installed then open Disk Utility from the Utilities folder on your hard drive. Select your startup volume from the list on the left, then click on the First Aid tab in the DU main window, then click on the Repair Permissions button.
    Now make your bootable backup to the Firewire drive.
    When you get the Tiger DVD I recommend that you completely reformat your hard drive before installing Tiger using the following procedure:
    1. Boot from the Tiger DVD. After the installer loads select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
    2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
    3. Set the number of partitions from the dropdown menu (use 1 partition unless you wish to make more.) Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled, if supported.) Click on the Partition button and wait until the volume(s) mount on the Desktop.
    4. Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
    5. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled, if supported.) Click on the Options button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
    6. Click on the Erase button. The format process will take 30 minutes to an hour or more depending upon the drive size.
    Once the formatting is completed quit DU and return to the Installer. Now proceed doing a clean install of Tiger to your main hard drive. If all goes well you can restore you personal files from your backup. You will have to replace any third-party software with updated versions that are Tiger compatible.
    If software compatibility is a major concern then before updating to Tiger (or Panther) check with all your software developers to be sure there are compatible upgrades available. The following will also be helpful in this regard:
    http://www.macintouch.com/tigercompat.html
    http://www.macintouch.com/tigerreview/incompatibility.html
    Also read: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=607363&#607363
    If you have problems, are not happy with Tiger, can't find compatible software, have third-party hardware support problems, etc. you can always boot from your Firewire backup, erase the hard drive and restore your backup using Carbon Copy Cloner.

  • What is the best practice for using the Calendar control with the Dispatcher?

    It seems as if the Dispatcher is restricting access to the Query Builder (/bin/querybuilder.json) as a best practice regarding security.  However, the Calendar relies on this endpoint to build the events for the calendar.  On Author / Publish this works fine but once we place the Dispatcher in front, the Calendar no longer works.  We've noticed the same behavior on the Geometrixx site.
    What is the best practice for using the Calendar control with Dispatcher?
    Thanks in advance.

  • What is the best software to use for screen capture on a PC for use with FCPX?

    What is the best software to use for screen capture on a PC (windows 7) for use with FCPX? I've tried Camtasia and camstudio however the avi files cannot be imported by FCPX and the mov files produced by these programs are shown as just black screens in FCPX.

    I use to face this issue every now and then (as a freelancer) when I use to cut on FCP7.
    if the material is DV and was captured using Sony VEGAS, Premiere or Edius, the footage generally worked fine. You'll find most people will tell you to convert it regardless, however I found no issues working with them.
    A problem you'll definitely face is HDV material. Most PC editing software write HDV in their own codec, which can't be read in FCP.
    The only thing I can think of is to try converting HDV meaterial to QuickTime using something like MPEG Streamclip, or something similar.
    Good luck

  • HT1229 what is the best method for using a iphoto with an external hard drive for greater capacity?

    what is the best method for using a iphoto with an external hard drive for greater capacity?

    Moving the iPhoto library is safe and simple - quit iPhoto and drag the iPhoto library intact as a single entity to the external drive - depress the option key and launch iPhoto using the "select library" option to point to the new location on the external drive - fully test it and then trash the old library on the internal drive (test one more time prior to emptying the trash)
    And be sure that the External drive is formatted Mac OS extended (journaled) (iPhoto does not work with drives with other formats) and that it is always available prior to launching iPhoto
    And backup soon and often - having your iPhoto library on an external drive is not a backup and if you are using Time Machine you need to check and be sure that TM is backing up your external drive

  • What is the best way to work with Word documents in The InDesign CS4???

    I work in Microsoft Word 2007 and all my documents have *.doc format.
    What is the best way to work with Word documents in InDesign CS4???
    David Blatner says to avoid copying and pasting text from Word instead of placing it (Ctrl+D).
    How about pasting RTF or Text Document???
    I want to make book's layout in ID CS4 and its main feature is that there is the left page with text and the right - with graphics.
    So, as I understand to place the text on each page I must create for example 70 Word documents and place each item on 70 left pages???
    It loks like wasting time. I sthere another way of making such layout???  What kind????

    It's best to place any text.
    You can have all of your text in one file and use auto-flow to add threaded text frames and pages as required (Hold down the Shift key when you click the loaded text cursor), but it's a little non-standard to have the thread only on one side of the spread from the auto-flow perspective, so you'll have to set up properly.
    This is one case where a master text frame will work to your advantage. On your master page spread, add a text frame to the left page, but not to the right (or at least not threaded to one on the right -- for some other project you might actually want two independent text threads). Hold the loaded cursor over a frame on the left side of a document page and auto-flow. ID will add new spreads as necessary, but only put the text on the left side.

  • What's the best way to deal with floating point errors?

    What's the best way to deal with the decimal number errors in Flex?
    Lets say I have:
    var number1:Number = 1.1;
    var number2:Number = 1;
    var result:Number = number1 - number2;
    trace(result);
    I get "0.10000000000000009".
    What's the best way to deal with this so that i get the right result?
    Using the trick: result = Math.round( result * Math.pow(10,13) ) / Math.pow(10,13); is not useful as such when using big numbers.
    For example, If number1 = 100000000001.1, and number2 = 0.2, I get "100000000000.90001" as result. The previous rounding fixes rounding errors after 13th decimal, but here the first rounding errors come after 4 digits.
    The toPrecision method in Number and NumberFormatter dont seem be of use by themselves because of the same reason.
    So I'd have to check how big the number is, and then round the number based on that.
    So far I've constructed a method that does that with logarithms like this:
    public function floatFix(number:Number):Number{
          var precision:int = 14-Math.floor(Math.log(Math.abs(number))*Math.LOG10E);
          var precisionFactor:Number = Math.pow(10, precision);
          return Math.round(Number(number*precisionFactor))/precisionFactor;
    It just seems rather odd that one would have to create and use something like that to just count 1.1-1; There's a lot of calculating in that method, and i'm guessing that having to use that in a loop could slow down a program quite a bit.
    I think there really should be a pre-built method in flex for something like this, but I can't find any.
    Anyone know any better/faster ways?

  • What is the best format to use on an external hard drive so I can both back up my Macbook Pro and also put movies on it from another hard drive (PC)?

    I am looking for a solution to whether if it is best to get two hard drives or one that can do two things that I want.
    I am looking for a hard drive format that can both back up my 500GB Macbook Pro but I was also wondering if I could also put movies on it from another hard drive that is PC based. Would partitioning the hard drive work for this? I don't know what are the best formats to use.
    If this is too hard it might just be easier having a separate 500GB hard drive for back up of my Mac and another bigger hard drive for the movies etc (the files are probably bigger than 4GB). Any help would be greatly appreciated as I need to make a decision soon!

    Microsoft has not released the official exFAT file system specification, and a restrictive license from Microsoft is required in order to make and distribute exFAT implementations. Microsoft also asserts patents on exFAT which make it impossible to re-implement its functionality in a compatible way without violating a large percentage of them.[13] This renders the implementation, distribution, and use of exFAT as a part of free or open-source operating systems or of commercial software, for which the vendors could not obtain a license from Microsoft, not only technically difficult, but legally impossible in countries that recognize United States software patents.
    Can't help with that, if one is using a Windows machine then they are subjected to their rules and control.
    Limited support outside Windows and Mac OS X operating systems as of 2012, when most consumer electronic devices could only handleFAT12/FAT16/FAT32, rendering exFAT (and flash memory formats using it) impractical as a universal exchange format.
    The OP said they plan to store movies on the external drive.
    Many movies today are well over 4GB in size, thus exFAT has to be used and formatted on the PC, which the Mac can then read.
    Older Windows NT versions up to Windows Vista without Service Pack 1 do not support exFAT.
    Irrelevant, Microsoft provides a free download of exFAT for Windows XP, and Vista shouldn't be running on pre SP1 anyway.
    Some distributions of Linux have begun to include support for exFAT. It is however, only available as a file system in user space, as it's not supported by the kernel.
    Irrelevant, OP is using Windows and OS X, not Linux and if they did Linux can read the files at least and transfer, which is all they care about really.
    Windows Vista is unable to use exFAT drives for ReadyBoost. Windows 7 removes this limitation, enabling ReadyBoost caches larger than 4 GiB.[14]
    Irrelevant, the OP's is intending to use it as transfer drive between Mac's and Windows for movies.
    The standard exFAT implementation only uses a single file allocation table and free space map. FAT file systems instead used alternating tables, as this allowed recovery of the file system if the media was ejected during a write (which occurs frequently in practice with removable media). The optional TexFAT component adds support for additional backup tables and maps, but may not be supported.
    Some relevancy, but only exFAT can handle 4GB+ files between Mac's and PC's, so the need outweighs the possible problem.
    The OP needs to follow the standard Windows practice of "safely removing hardware" before physically disconnecting the external drive. If a write is occurring, it won't allow disconnecting until the write is finished.
    Support for up to 2,796,202 files per subdirectory only.[1][nb 3] Microsoft documents a limit of 65,534 files per sub-directory for their FAT32 implementation, but other operating systems have no special limit for the number of files in a FAT32 directory. FAT32 implementations in other operating systems allow an unlimited number of files up to the number of available clusters (that is, up to 268,304,373 files on volumes without long filenames).[nb 4]
    Not a issue, only in extreme cases of a lot of small files. The OP plans to use it for movies which are usually large and take up a lot of space on the drive.
    IMMO It looks like you just ran off and copied something to argue your point when all the points are basically irrelevant.
    There is only one format that can easily share 4GB sized files between Mac's and PC's without further complications.
    It's ALSO possible to install MacDrive on the PC and format the drive on the Mac HFS+, but I didn't recommend that because I know it's a hassle just like third party NTFS writing software is a hassle on Mac's.
    If you so anti-Microsoft format, then you must know Paragon has to pay a license fee to Microsoft for using the NTFS format.
    At least with exFAT there is no fee to Redmond, at least not yet.
