Actual CPU´S that will be used: 0

I have no idea what I can do. Maybe someone can help me.
-I7 2600k
-ATI 6970
-8GB Ram
If I want to turn on Multiprocessing in AE I get the message:
Installed CPU´S (processor cores): 8
Actual CPU´S that will be used: 0
I can change all these settings but AE still does not accept my CPU´s.
Please help me

Okay I made pictures of all my settings.
Furthermore I thought my CPU could be the problem because it uses Hyperthreading Technology. I disabled Hyperthreading and After Effects told me that I only have four cores. This is absolutely correct. Nevertheless the amount of used Cores is still zero. I can not activate multiprocessing.
By the way I was really satisfied with the speed of AE without multiprocessing. I only had one problem. Sometimes I got the message:
"AE needs more than 2 frames to playback" I thought I can solve this problem by enabling multiprocessing.
I also tried purge--> all , which did not help
I also changed the cache folder of AE to an external device which did not help either.
I ALSO deinstalled my Comodo Internet Security because I read that some people could solve this problem with this
My question is: It is generally possible for me to activate multiprocessing with only 8 gb RAM?
Thanks for all advice.

I'm trying to put a swf file on a dvd that will autostart using OS X

I'm trying to put a swf file on a dvd that will autostart using OS X and Director MX. I imported one swf file that has nested movie clips.
Some of them play and some don't.
Any suggestions?

The swf file runs fine on a computer. But now they want me to export it as a .mov and put it on a dvd that customers without computers can put in a tv/dvd player. They want it to auto start. When I export it as .mov, QuickTime only plays the first 20 seconds and not all of the nested movie clips play. They don't want it to play in a QuickTime player. Do I need to upgrade to QuickTime Pro? Any suggestions?Thanks

Need a VI for strain gages that will operate using LabView v 8.5

I am looking for an example VI similar to the one found at http://zone.ni.com/devzone/cda/epd/p/id/3942 that will operate with my LabView v 8.5. All of the examples that I can find say that they will not work with my LabView because they were generated using v 6.1.

One test is worth a thousand expert opinions

Hi,
I will look into updating the example on the website. For now, give this VI a try. Let me know if you need it saved in a different version but I think it should work with LabVIEW 8.5.

I want to use Boot Camp to run a tax program that will only use explorer. Whick windows program do I need to install in Boot Camp

I want to use Boot Camp and windows 7 or 8, preferrably 7 to run a tax program that will only let me use explorer. I am using a Mac Book Pro with OSX Maverick 10.9. There are so many windows programs out there it is confusing which one I need. I don't think that I will need Office.

I would use Windows 7 any full version except the trial, or a branded Dell, HP, etc. versions

How can I burn a Word document that will be used on a PC?

Hello,
I have to burn a Word document onto a disk for a friend who is using either PC or a Mac. It will eventually go to a publisher. I haven't burned a .doc in ages and can't remember how to do it. Do I want to use a CD-R and not a DVD-R? Also can I use Toast and choose the PC option or should I use Disk Utility? If disk utility how do I do it? I just want to make sure it will work on a PC if that is what will be used to extract it?

IT's a non-issue, assuming you have recent versions of OSx and MS Office. Just use the Finder to burn the disc. PC Word reads Mac Word just fine, with some rare exceptions.
-insert blank CD-R, because they are the cheapest, unless your Word doc is more than 700MB.
-drag .doc document into the mounted, untitled CD-R icon.
-using any of several methods (which can vary a bit depending on your OS), use the Finder to burn the CD-R. One way is to click once on the CDR icon, then go to the FInder/File menu and select Burn CD. In OSX.5.x, there are Burn commands in the window for the CDR (i.e. double click on the CDR icon for the root window).
A window should open, asking if you want to burn this disc so that any computer (Mac or PC) can read it.
edit: your Toast method you did while I was typing sounds like it should work, too.

How to determine network interface that will be used to send a packet

Hello,
I'm writing to you because I encountered the following problem. My program displayes all network interfaces that are available in the system, but I would like to add a functionality in which a user can enter a destination address IP (ex. the IP address of the Google search engine) and will get information which network interface will be used to send it. As I know it is associated with reading information from routing table in the system. Maybe you know the API (functions/methods) which I could use to do it in Solaris ? I program in C/C++, but if you know how to do it in other programming languages (Java, Perl, Python) I will be grateful for any information.
Thank you for any help, tips and suggestions.
Best regards,
Foxrafi

Thank you for your response it was very helpful :).
I went to the OpenSolaris webpage because I would like to find the code of this command, but unfortunately I don't know where I should start my searches.
There is a page with source code of basic commands, but there is no "route" command: here .
Maybe you are better enlightened where I should start.
Thank you for answer.

Manage historical data that will be used in grouping by webforms/reports?

Our system receives transactions in a per-minute basis, and each transaction is stored in a
Raw Data table that's exclusively for this. All reports, gridview webforms, etc come from tables that are derived from this master table.
In this case I can't group the data during run-time due to the volume of data. So for tasks like the daily summary, should I just have a job that runs once daily and groups all the data from the current day and inserts it into a historical daily table? The
same thing with the weekly?
I considered using BIDS and creating a cube, but due to the presentation of the data, it was beginning to look more complex. In other words, in order to show the desired result in a grid (plus include filters), I would need to use tons of MDX, which I still
don't master.
Thanks.
VM

I agree with kalman, this is the right way to deal with reporting and big tables, in most cases it is better to have 2 databases, one fore the original data, and one for the reporting which include this summarized data.
Regarding the CUBE, this is a good option especially if your reports are more complex and includes several dimensions. on a simple case I don't think you should use CUBEs. But in order to make this dissension you need to understand the idea of using cube
and the idea of dimensions:-)
* For most cases cube is just a nice and fast tool, that you can implement your self in another database, but in complex system it should give you a faster result. for simple system
I will agree that no CUBE is needed probably.
** You should give us more information on your system if you want us to be more productive (number of users, database size and tables size, 1 transaction a sec... but what is it doing, what is the row size, and much more information... therefore we only
can give you general gulden rules)

If I have an app on an ipad2 that will be used by others, eg students in a school, how do i remove an app such as Words with Friends so that my games and messages cannot be seen? Thanks

Hi, I have an app on 1 ipad and then went to use another and downloaded words with friends onto it to access my current games. when I return to use my original Ipad 2 how do I erase the apps from the previous one? Thanks

Hold down the app till it jiggles then a minus sign will appear, tap the sign and the app is gone

Is it possible to digitally sign a jar file that will be used to install CF in WebSphere?

I am currently working for a contractor for the DoD. We are maintaining a project that uses CF installed as an application through WebSphere. We are currently going through a security checklist and being asked to provide evidence that the CF application has a digital signature. From what we can gather they are looking to see that the jar file installed into WebSphere is digitally signed. We have reached out to IBM, and have received a response that digital signatures are recognized by WebSphere.
Unfortunately, it seems that those that are looking for the evidence do not know much more than what the checklist requirement states. They cannot provide more details or expand on what they need. Any assistance or advice in this matter would be appreciated.
Thanks,

So as I understand this, it means the end-user has no way to know it was me that truly signed it. But relies on their common sense I suppose.
That is correct. The CA has verified, and is certifying, that you are who you claim to be. If you or I use a 'self signed' certificate, it does not carry the same level of trust. As you might understand already, the dialogs are different between the two certificate types, and some users cannot accept trusted code from an unverified (self-signed) certificate.
I have been meaning to write a page on the differences between the two certificates. It is well worth looking into getting a cert. from a CA.
There was a stage when one of the major CAs were offering 'freemail' certificates that came emblazoned not with your name, but 'free mail' itself. I did not like them because of that, and continue to use a self-signed certificate.

How to build a custom movie clip that will be used as a cell renderer for column in a grid ?

i want to build a datagrid that shows a picture and underneath it a name.
the problem is i dont want to see all of the pictures, but all the pictures that have certain requirements, so i cant just make one movie clip that includes all the pictures and names.
so my question is how do i build a movie clip that contains photo and text?.

You do not create movieclips on the timeline using code, though you can create them and add them as children of something that has been manually placed in the timeline.
To create a MovieClip using code you use:
    var mc:MovieClip = new MovieClip();
If you need to add an image, then however you intend to acquire the image, after it has been acquired, you add it to the MovieClip using:
    mc.addChild(img);
where img is the instance of whatever form of object the image takes (Bitmap, Loader)
If you need to add a TextField to the MovieClip then you use:
    var tf:TextField = new TextField();
    mc.addChild(tf);
and you can set up properties for the textfield such as the font and color and position as well after it has been instantiated (the first line).

What's a good cheap computer that will be used for email , facebook games and off line games ,

my computer has a bad moteher board and i want to buy a new one. i play facebook games and my bf wants to play his offline civilization games. i do not want to spend more than $300.00.

A $300 computer will most likely BARELY be able to handle Flash Facebook games, but, should be able to handle an older game like the original Civilization games.
Are you going to need a new monitor, or just a tower? Is the $300 including tax, because if so, even the absolute cheapest computer that Best Buy carries is over that.
If you like my post, or solution to your issue/question, go ahead and click on the little star by my name and/or accept the post as the Solution. It makes me happy.
I'm NOT an employee of Best Buy, or Geek Squad, though I did work as an Agent for a year 5 years ago. None of my posts are to be taken as the official stance that Best Buy will take on your situation. My advice is just that, advice.
Unfortunately, that's the bad luck of any electronic, there's going to be bad Apples... wait that's a horrible pun.

Passing var to a procedure that will be used in a where clause

Hi,
this is what i am facing
I created a procedure : procName(inClause varchar2, dateClause date)
in the procedure there is a query
Insert into anExistingTable(val_a, val_b)
select tableOne.a, tableTwo.b from tableOne, tableTwo
where tableOne.col1 = tableTwo.col1 and
tableOne.col2 in inClause and
tableOne.col3 = dateClause;
the select query above does not return any rows (although there are rows matching the criteria).
I have tried to pass the inClause as : '1111','2222','3333'
I have also tried as : ('1111','2222','3333')
I have also tried the following query (but no luck) :
Insert into anExistingTable(val_a, val_b)
select tableOne.a, tableTwo.b from tableOne, tableTwo
where tableOne.col1 = tableTwo.col1 and
tableOne.col2[b] in (select inClause from dual) and
tableOne.col3 = dateClause;
I have also tried dynamic sql (but no luck)
sqlsmt := ' Insert into anExistingTable(val_a, val_b) ' ||
'select tableOne.a, tableTwo.b from tableOne, tableTwo ' ||
' where tableOne.col1 = tableTwo.col1 and ' ||'
' tableOne.col2 in :inclause and ' ||
' tableOne.col3 = :dateClause';
execute immediate sqlsmt using inclause, dateclause
The following query returns rows, so it seems that i dont get the query to understand the inClause parameter
Insert into anExistingTable(val_a, val_b)
select tableOne.a, tableTwo.b from tableOne, tableTwo
where tableOne.col1 = tableTwo.col1 and
tableOne.col2 in ('1111','2222','3333') and
tableOne.col3 = dateClause;
Is there something i am missing?
thx
theodore

it has to be done with dynamic sql. but you can't use a bind variable
sqlsmt := ' Insert into anExistingTable(val_a, val_b) ' ||
'select tableOne.a, tableTwo.b from tableOne, tableTwo ' ||
' where tableOne.col1 = tableTwo.col1 and ' ||'
' tableOne.col2 in ' || inclause || ' and ' ||
' tableOne.col3 = :dateClause';
execute immediate sqlsmt using dateclause the above assumes that the variable inclause contains the begin/end parens.
if inclause contains string data (with single quotes), then you'll need to double up on the single quotes to keep the parsing correct
' tableOne.col2 in ' || replace(inclause, '''', '''''',) || ' and ' ||

Need help choosing optimal hardware for a laptop that will run AE CS5

BACKGROUND INFO (Questions listed below)
I need some help figuring out the best hardware configuration for a new laptop. I’m a student at a design school and I will be using the laptop to mainly run After Effects and to a lesser extent Photoshop and Illustrator. I don’t need to worry about 3D rendering software or Premier Pro. I am primarily interested in getting the best performance during editing. I am not looking for the best performance for final output. I would prefer to sacrifice final output times for better editing/interface performance.
I will be working with standard definition content and perhaps HD up to 720p on occasion. I do not need to operate in resolutions higher than 720p. My projects are generally animation and use many sources and many layers.
I’ve been reading up on optimal hardware configurations for CS5 but my understanding is still a little foggy and I would like to use this thread to figure out how to build the best machine for my budget. The budget is about $1400 to $1600 CANADIAN after tax.
I DON’T need help finding the laptop. I will search for it on my own. I just need to understand the best hardware to purchase within my budget.
I realize that it is probably impossible to buy the laptop I want with the hardware configuration I need “off the shelf”. Instead I will be looking for a good base model (~$900-$1100) and I will purchase the necessary hardware upgrades separately. I will not be purchasing a Mac.
Right now I’m thinking of a machine built something like this:
- 15”-16” screen (17” models are too big/heavy)
- Mid to high end i5 processor OR entry level i7 quad core
- 8GB RAM (I would go to 12GB, but it’s hard to find a 15”-16” laptop with 3 memory slots)
- SSD to replace HDD (However, if possible, I would like a laptop with dual HDD support or swap the optical drive for another HDD. If I had access to 2 drives, I would have and HDD/SSD combo).
- Medium/high end NVIDIA GPU to take advantage of OpenGL while editing.
QUESTIONS
1) Does the “Render Multiple Frames Simultaneously” option enhance general editing performance (applying filters, scrubbing through the timeline, reverting history states)? Or does it ONLY help speed up RAM previews and final output? Does it reduce the length of RAM previews?
1b) Is this option even necessary to enable on 64bit systems? (As far as I understand it was used to solve a problem where 32bit systems/software would only recognize 4GB of RAM per instance of AE).
1c) If I turn this option on to help with RAM previews, would I be hindering general editing performance in any way? Or does this option have basically zero drawbacks?
2) How come “Actual CPUs that will be used” will read 0 even if the sum total of RAM assigned to the CPUs plus the RAM reserved for other applications is less than the total available system RAM (on a 64bit system)? For example, I currently have 4GB RAM and 2 installed CPUs. I have 1.5GB reserved for other programs and when I set 0.75GB per CPU both CPUs are used. However when I set 1GB per CPU then 0 CPUs are used, even though the total RAM adds up to only 3.5GB.
CPU
3.) Considering the fact that I am more concerned with smooth performance while editing rather than final output speeds, would it be better to get a dual core i5 clocked around 2.5 or a quad core i7 clocked around 1.8?
4.) What is the difference between an i3 and an i5 processor even if they are clocked at the same speed? How does an i5 460M compare on the grand scheme of things?
RAM
6.) Should the quantity of RAM that I get (8GB vs 12GB) be based on the number of cores in my CPU? If so, how should I be calculating optimal RAM based on # of cores. Should I also be counting threads, or just actual physical cores?
STORAGE/SWAP
7.) Should I replace the HDD with an SSD? I'm looking for snappy interface performance while editing. I would think that if the RAM fills up it would be best to have the SSD for scratch/cache.
8.) What performance benchmarks are most important when considering an SSD for After Effects? (4k writes? IOs per second? Max read/write?)
9.) I can afford the OCZ Vertex2 120GB SSD. Would this be a good choice if an SSD is recommended?
10.) Would it be better to have 8GB of RAM and an SSD, or 12GB of RAM and an HDD? Explain why.
GPU
10.) After Effects utilizes OpenGL to enhance editing performance. I will not really be using Premier Pro, so catering to the CUDA Mercury Engine is not a concern. Do high end gaming cards provide significant gains in OpenGL performance? Or do OpenGL performance gains taper off around the mid-range GPUs? (i.e. can you justify buying a high end GTX 260M graphics card for enhanced editing performance versus an "entry level" dedicated card like the 310M?)
11.) What hardware specs are most important when considering a GPU for editing performance in AE? (Memory size? # of Pixel shaders? Core speed? Shader speed?)
Thanks so much for any answers you can offer to these questions.

Please make sure that you've read through this page and what it points to.
> 1) Does the “Render Multiple Frames Simultaneously” option
enhance general editing performance (applying filters, scrubbing through
the timeline, reverting history states)? Or does it ONLY help speed up
RAM previews and final output? Does it reduce the length of RAM
previews?
It only increases rendering speed for RAM previews and rendering for final output. In After Effects CS5, it doesn't decrease the length of RAM previews. (In CS4, it does.)
1b) Is this option even necessary to enable on 64bit
systems? (As far as I understand it was used to solve a problem where
32bit systems/software would only recognize 4GB of RAM per instance of
AE).
You misunderstood. Yes, it's still relevant on 64-bit computers. Moreso, in a way. (I'd rather not spend my entire Sunday writing out detailed answers to satisfy idle curiosity, so I'm not going to give all the technical detail to that answer.)
> 1c) If I turn this option on to help with RAM previews,
would I be hindering general editing performance in any way? Or does
this option have basically zero drawbacks?
It takes a small but nonzero time for the background processes to start up when they need to be used and shut down when they're done. And as they sit waiting, they take up a little bit of memory. So, it's not exactly correct to say that there are no downsides to leaving it on. But it's close. I leave it on.
> 2) How come “Actual CPUs that will be used” will read 0 even
if the sum total of RAM assigned to the CPUs plus the RAM reserved for
other applications is less than the total available system RAM (on a
64bit system)? For example, I currently have 4GB RAM and 2 installed
CPUs. I have 1.5GB reserved for other programs and when I set 0.75GB per
CPU both CPUs are used. However when I set 1GB per CPU then 0 CPUs are
used, even though the total RAM adds up to only 3.5GB.
4GB - 1.5GB for other software leaves 2.5 GB for After Effects.
If you have 1GB assigned per background CPU, then the foreground takes 1.2x that = 1.2GB. That leaves 1.3GB for background processes, which is enough for one background process. There's no point in starting only one background process to do rendering, so it doesn't bother. (Note: When background processes are rendering, the foreground process isn't rendering.)
> 3.) Considering the fact that I am more concerned with
smooth performance while editing rather than final output speeds, would
it be better to get a dual core i5 clocked around 2.5 or a quad core i7
clocked around 1.8?
Get the quad-core. That gives you a greater total number of cycles. And After Effects works very well with mutliple processors, even beyond Render Multiple Frames Simultaneously multiprocessing. An entirely unrelated sort of multiprocessing (multithreading) spreads work out to multiple processors.
> 6.) Should the quantity of RAM that I get (8GB vs 12GB) be based on the number of cores in my CPU? If
so, how should I be calculating optimal RAM based on # of cores. Should
I also be counting threads, or just actual physical cores?
The optimum amount is the amount that you can cram into the computer. I'm not kidding. Spend your budget on RAM until you have 4GB installed per processor (and I'm counting the virtual processors due to hyperthreading). If you have a quad-core, that's 8 CPUs with hyperthreading, so the optimum amount of RAM installed is 32GB. You can work with less, but you did ask about optimum. For HD work (i.e., 1920 pixels across), you're OK with more like 3GB installed per CPU. That's what I have at home: 24GB in a quad-core. You're going to assign 2/3 or so of the RAM to After Effects, so 3GB installed per CPU is 2GB per core for HD work in After Effects.
> 10.) Would it be better to have 8GB of RAM and an SSD, or 12GB of RAM and an HDD? Explain why.
12GB of RAM. Because After Effects likes RAM. (If you're thinking of deliberatly using virtual memory to swap memory to the hard disk, don't. That's a performance killer.)
> 10.) After Effects utilizes OpenGL to enhance editing performance.
Not really. If you're on a limited budget, don't even think about the GPU until you've already got the most RAM, the fastest CPUs, the largest number of CPUs, two fast hard disks, and a couple of good monitors. Then, and only then, should you even consider getting soemthing beyond a non-stock graphics card. Yes, OpenGL can be used to accelerate some things, but that's only for the low-fidelity preview renderer. (Pardon the bluntness, but I want to make sure that you heed this.)
