Advantages, pros and cons, using "Image Capture" versus iPhoto?

     Senior Citizen's first attempt to use mini SD Card (fr. cell phone) to transfer picts. to my Mac Mini, OS X Maverick 10.9. Plus, I just got my first digital camera.
     Ergo the Ques.: What are the Pros & Cons between these to apps.? Points of concern: 1.) Privacy: Don't want picts. accdentally uploaded anywhere in case I click the wrong button. 2.) Easist to learn, easiest to use, no graphic designer here, starting out with the basics- crop, sharpen, rotate -then on wards & upwards. 3.) Portability & end uses & users (viewers) compatibilities. Of great import of course export & import.
     Been with my cell phone carrier 15 yrs. on Nokias now I can get an iPhone. Lot of dificulties hooking Nokia to Mac, Isync no longer supported (blu tooth) connection, screwing up contacts etc. Can't hook up directly, lost cord. Some already transfered when everything was working; I believe that was back in OS X 10.8.4, not sure.
     None the less I want to start utilizing the One of these Apps on board. Know I have to learn them my self. Just another Late in Life learning prob., #%*)#!
     Kowledgeable input & pointers appreciated,
     Thank you,
     DPT

As thomas_r points out, Image Capture just transfers the photos from a Camera (or card) to your Mac into a folder somewhere on your Mac.
iPhoto provides all the organization, editing, and sharing features. iPhoto is easy to use, offering one-click editing for many of the common photo editing needs.
You generally won't be able to one-click and post them someplace you don't want. There will be at least one dialog box stopping to ask directions before it goes where you were trying to send it.
While it doesn't post them publicly (unless you go in and change settings), the iPhone has a capability to put all the pictures you've take into your iCloud account so they are immediately avaliable on other iCloud connected devices.
As stated, it doesn't put them in a public place, but it does move them onto Apple's servers. You can turn that feature off in the phone's settings.

What are the pros and cons using Active Data Guard vs Data Guard?

My understanding is that Active Data Guard is an additional database option for Oracle 11gR2 Enterprise Edition. I need to know the pros and cons using Active Data Guard vs Data Guard in order to decide whether to get pay extra for the Active Data Guard.
Thanks for any help.

Hemant K Chitale wrote:
Before jumping in to Active Data Guard, one needs to evaluate :
a. Is there really a need to run queries on the Standby ? The Standby could / should be at a remote site so queries are "across the network". Depending on the nature of the queries and the volume of output, the "performance" of the queries may not seem to be the same.
b. If the database is not in Maximum Protection mode, the data "seen" at the standby may not be in "real-time" synch
c. Not all applications are truely read-only when querying. Some applications use "jobs" that write to tables when querying. Such would not work with Active DataGuard. (example : EBusiness Suite). There are very complicated ways of handling this -- and one needs to consider if the complications can be introduced and supported.
Over the network accessing standby read only is really not an good idea, I think no one will compare performance with primary and standby,
But some of them they want to validate data which are very critical, as it is matching with primary or not, Its an added advantage with ACTIVE DATAGUARD
Prior to that until unless stop MRP, open database and then we need to validate, So there is an interruption of recovery, I can say its also an advantage where there is no interruption of recovery.

What are the pros and cons using ospf as the PE/CE protocol

pros and cons using ospf as the PE/CE Protocol

Hi,
Well in short,
pros:
well deployed protocol with good user experience
fast convergence
no redistribution required on ce side
cons;
type 1 & 2 routes (O) from one site are known as type 3 summary routes (OIA) in the other site
you need a sham link configured on the pe routers to get the routes as type1&2 at each remote site
If was deploying mpls vpn, i would use either ospf or bgp as pe/ce protocol.

Can't import photos using image capture or iphoto

When I plug in the iphone to my mac, I cannot get the photos off the phone. I did it once before, while leaving the original photos on the phone, but now I photo says there was an error importing 38 items, which happen to be the 38 photos I've taken since my initial import. Image capture "imports" them onto my desktop, but the files are unreadable?
Is this something with the phone or the computer, or simply a software issue.
Please help....
Gavin

i deleted HD cache and user cache as well as image capture prefs and IC performed better right away but then had same issue where iphone stops importing photos. pretty crappy...it seems image capture has never worked right (not in 10.3, not in 10.4, and still not in 10.5, don't remember if 10.2 or 10.1 had image capture) atleast before it would import the photos; progress indicator would get stuck but upon opening user picture folder, photos imported fine. We might be SOL, thanks Steve's Dev Team!

Pros and Cons using "Type" vs "Element" in Req/Resp Messages PL?

Assume I have an asynchrone BPEL process and want to define the inbound
myBPELRequestMessage and myBPELResponseMessage.
As well known I can specify (in "Structure") a "Type" or "Element" for the Message.
What is recommended?
From my point of view for the inbound myBPELRequestMessage always a Type should
be specified beause the calling BPEL process will already pass a variable of the specified type.
On the other side almost always on the Callback side an element should be specified
to be sure to provide an existing instance back to the calling BPEL process.
Am I right?
Peter

It can be either, it really comes down to what you want your service to respond with.
E.g. you may have a long running query that brings back muliple rows. This will need to be handled in a type, not an element.
cheers

Using Image Capture to download photos from iPhone--Date Sort

Hi,
I have over 2000 photos on my 3G iPhone and I use Image Capture on the Mac to pull them off.
Since I have so many photos going back a couple years, the file names have repeated, so if I sort by File Name, stuff from last year is mixed in with this year, etc.
Also, if I sort by date, Image Capture sorts by MONTH-DAY-YEAR, therefore my latest photos are NOT at the top/botttom of the list!
How can I change the date format in Image Capture so that I can sort by YEAR first?
Thanks!

OK, here is my new strategy:
A new feature of Snow Leopard OSX 10.6 is that Image Capture (and iPhoto) will put a green check mark next to any photos already downloaded. Therefore, it makes it much much easier to figure out the new from the old.
In addition to that, I went into my iPhone using PhoneView and reset the images back to IMG_00001. This required me to get rid of my thousands of photos on the iPhone, but oh well.
So starting over seemed to be the best way to manage this mess.

What are the pros and cons re using an intel iMac vs MacPro with LP8?

I'm considering getting a new intel Mac in the near future (presuming a new MacPro will be released in the near future - maybe at the same time as Leopard). I compose largely for film and television and I am composing largely using a combination of loops, software instruments and some recorded live performance. I usually sync to a low res quicktime movie.
I do like the idea of a simple and uncluttered work environment with an iMac, added to which there's also a degree of portability with the iMac however the MacPro is obviously more powerful. I'm not sure how much the difference in power between the two computers would affect me.
Would I be compromising myself much if I went for the iMac over the MacPro? What are the pros and cons of the iMac vs the MacPro in relation to Logic Pro 8?

In the world large-scale music composition using samples, loops, etc (especially for film) your two biggest needs are RAM and HD speed/access. The imac looses big time in this department (as a single computer at least) as it can only be upgraded to 4gb ram, and only holds one internal HD, and also lacks any PCI expansion for DSP cards, audio interfaces, etc.
In generalyou want to separate your data vs applications as much as possible, to ensure both can be accessed quickly and easily by the computer. So its best to have your system software / applications on one internal HD, and your logic data (samples, audio recordings, loops) on another drive(s). You can do this with an iMac via USB, FW800, & FW400, but depending on how big your projects get, how many USB and FW drives / interfaces you use, and how much data you need to stream, you could overload the buss on the imac (not sure if it has multiple busses or not). Plus speed wise, internal SATA are much faster than external drives, and the mac pro with its 4 internal slots seems like a great choice for speed and flexibility.
However, if you dont find yourself doing large scale projects, then you might be better off going with an imac. We just purchased one for my father and it runs great! It blows the socks off of my Dual 2.5 G5 tower in terms of CPU speed! If you run into problems running things from the imac, you could always add a mac-mini down the road to stream sample libs, as a Logic node, etc, which seems to be a much more cost effective solution.
I hope this was helpful, but I probably just made the decision harder . In fact, if I were to start over today, I dont know if I'd go with a MacPro, or an iMac / mac mini combination. they both seem to have their advantages / disadvantages.
Best of luck!

Pros and cons of using email sending package in oracle 8.1.6

hi ,
i would like to know the advantages /disadvantages of using email sending package from oracle 8.1.6
compared to sending the same using say perl or php.
iam developing a site in php/oracle8.1.6 , in which iam supposed to create a payement module.whenever a user
register(for free trial or subscribing the site) i'll have to send him a welcoming mail.In addition to this iam also supposed to find out wether subscribers are paying cash at right time and if not send them reminder mails and other for related scenarios . i can do the same in Perl or PHP.but if iam not gaining much(say based on server performance or load) then i think i can go ahead with oracle package. when i tested it i found that its slow . what about the load that it may cause for the server (ours is linux ).
please do give inputs on this

Hi Ravi,
Thanks for your reply.
But I am specifically looking at pros and cons for web services. So the thread which you passed to me won't help.

Print as image - pros and cons

Hello,
I would like to know what are pros and cons of setting print as image in Reader?
Recently I came up to problem which prevented PDF file to being printed on HP OfficeJet 8000 A811. It was about 40 pages PDF and one of the pages couldn't be printed.
After some investigation I realized it is because of some additional font that was used on this page.
I am mainly interested in cons. Is print job bigger (printing slower)? Is cartridge consuption greater? ...
Thank you for all answer.

It may be slower yes but you're still printing the same amount of material so you shouldn't use any more ink/toner. Other than it being slower, I'm not aware of any cons.
I would prefer of course to have a properly formulated pdf that doesn't require me to use print as image.

HT204053 What are the pros and cons of 1) choosing to use the SAME Apple ID for iCloud services on one side, and purchases on the iTunes Store, App Store, and iBookstore, on the other side; or 2) to have and use two separate Apple Ids for these "two sides

All is in the title, so I repeat it below with a better identation.
What are the pros and cons of
1) choosing to use the SAME
Apple ID for iCloud services on one side, and
purchases on the iTunes Store, App Store, and iBookstore, on the other side; or
2) to have and use two separate Apple Ids for these "two sides"?
P.S.
I have loads and loads of free podcasts in iTunes in my iMac, that are certainly more thant the 5 gigas the iCloud provides for free, so I don't want those to go to the cloud. But this is perhaps a different question...
Also need to mention that I have itunes on a mac, a pc and an iphone.
Sorry to look so silly with this question, but I don't get the "big picture".

You need to create a user account for your wife (or yourself depending on who has the current user account). When syncing, each of you should sign in as a separate user, login to iTunes and then sync. I had this problem when my sister got an iPhone. When we did her initial sync, everything on my iPhone showed up on hers. Apple gave me this solution.

What are the Pros and Cons of Using Batch Numbers over Serialization

Dear SAP Gurus:
Will someone please give me the benefits of using Batch Management over serial numbers in this case scenerio, or vice versa:
Client wants to trace all the components of an assembly in a BOM. Even the Raw material. The client sends the material out today and has the vendor assign serial numbers to the individual pieces, the client gives the range of serial numbers to use. We are looking at using batch numbers to accomplish this and issue one material and batch number to a production order. Then use MB56 batch where used functionality to view history. I am wanting to understand the benefits of this. Please advise and points will be awarded as always.
Also, in this scenerio, can you issue multiple material/batch numbers to one vendor op that has its own production order?

Yes it is a subcontract.
Example: This is the solution but need the pros and cons of doing this scenerio
Sheet of metal sent to vendor to make lets say 1800 peices of material number nas5703-01. All 1800 pieces come back and issued to a production work order using one bacth number for one material item so that batch number can be traced in history in MB56 and a fit up report.

Can you access the images on the phone with Image Capture (in the Applications Folder) ?

I have used Image Capture to scan images/documents and then saved them as either PDFs or PNG files. For some reason, just this past week Image Capture will no longer save the file. It scans, and the Scan Results window pops up, but it won't save file.

I have used Image Capture to scan images/documents and then saved them as either PDFs or PNG files. For some reason, just this past week, Image Capture will no longer save the file. It scans, and the Scan Results window pops up, but it won't save file.
The file name has no special character in it, just letters and no spaces.
I have done this in the past and it has worked, but now it will not.
I have not upgraded any software, that I am aware of.
After scanning, the Image Capture pops up the Scan Results with the file name in the window, but neither the Scan Results nor the Image Capture window responds to inputs. The Image Capture window is frozen, with only the "Overview" and "Cancel" buttons active (but non-responsive).
Is this a software issue or a scanner hardware issue? I am using a HP Photosmart C6200 series printer/scanner on a network using a Time Capsule airport.
Thanks.

I had the same problem.
Got a 90% fix. Apparently the Mavericks preferences won't work with Yosemite, so I just deleted the Image Capture preferences.
Unfortunately, the "Scan to" folder seems to be permanently set to the Pictures folder.
1. Quit Image Capture
2. Go to Finder > Go > Home, which opens up your home folder (named after your user name)
3. Open Library > Preferences > com.apple.ImageCapture.plist - Drag this file to the Trash
4. Start "Image Capture", click "Details" and change all your settings as you prefer
5. Quit and restart "Image Capture". Notice it remembers all your settings except "Scan to" folder. It insists on saving to "Pictures".
That's as far as I was successful. I tried changing the "Scan to" folder to "Desktop", but on launch, Image Capture always sets it back to "Pictures".
This is what I tried:
6. Download and install "Pref Setter" from http://www.nightproductions.net/prefsetter.html
7. Quit "Image Capture". Right-click on "com.apple.ImageCapture.plist" and open with Pref Setter.
8. Search for "Pictures", which finds "~/Pictures" (the tilde character at the start means your home directory).
9. Double-click on "~/Pictures" and change it to the folder you prefer. I like "~/Desktop"
10. Choose File > Save then Quit from Pref Setter. Note that re-opening the plist file still shows "~/Desktop"
11. Start up "Image Capture" -- on startup, "Image Capture" sets "Scan to" folder to "Pictures"
I consider this a bug.

Using CLOB data type - Pros and Cons

Dear Gurus,
We are designing a database that will be receiving comments from external data source. These comments are stored as CLOB in the external database. We found that only 1% of incoming data will be larger than 4000 characters and are now evaluating the Pros and Cons of storing only 4000 characters of incoming comments in VARCHAR2 data type or using CLOB data type.
Some of the concerns brought up during discussion were:
- having to store CLOBs in separate tablespace;
- applications, such Toad require changing defaults settings to display CLOBs in the grid. Default value is not to display them;
- applications that build web page with CLOBs will be struggling to fit 18 thousand chararcters of which 17 thousand are blank lines;
- cashing CLOBs in memory will consume big chunk of data buffers which will affect performance;
- to manipulate CLOBs you need PL/SQL anonymous block or procedure;
- bind variables cannot be assigned CLOB value;
- dynamic SQL cannot use CLOBs;
- temp tables don't work very well with CLOBs;
- fuzzy logic search on CLOBs is ineffective;
- not all ODBC drivers support Oracle CLOBs
- UNION, MINUS, INTERSECT don't work with CLOBs
I have not delt with CLOB data type in the past, so I am hoping to hear from you of any possible issues/hastles we may encounter?

Some of the concerns brought up during discussion were:
- having to store CLOBs in separate tablespace;They can be stored inline too. Depends on requirements.
- applications, such Toad require changing defaults settings to display CLOBs in the grid. Default value is not to display them;Toad is a developer tool so that shouldn't matter. What should matter is how you display the data to end users etc. but that will depend on the interface. Some can handle CLOBs and others not. Again, it depends on the requirements.
- applications that build web page with CLOBs will be struggling to fit 18 thousand chararcters of which 17 thousand are blank lines;Why would they struggle? 18,000 characters is only around 18k in file size, that's not that big to a web page.
- cashing CLOBs in memory will consume big chunk of data buffers which will affect performance;Who's caching them in memory? What are you planning on doing with these CLOBs? There's no real reason they should impact performance any more than anything else, but it depends on your requirements as to how you plan to use them.
- to manipulate CLOBs you need PL/SQL anonymous block or procedure;You can manipulate CLOBs in SQL too, using the DBMS_LOB package.
- bind variables cannot be assigned CLOB value;Are you sure?
- dynamic SQL cannot use CLOBs;Yes it can. 11g supports CLOBs for EXECUTE IMMEDIATE statements and pre 11g you can use the DBMS_SQL package with CLOB's split into a VARCHAR2S structure.
- temp tables don't work very well with CLOBs;What do you mean "don't work well"?
- fuzzy logic search on CLOBs is ineffective;Seems like you're pulling information from various sources without context. Again, it depends on your requirements as to how you are going to use the CLOB's
- not all ODBC drivers support Oracle CLOBs not all, but there are some. Again, it depends what you want to achieve.
- UNION, MINUS, INTERSECT don't work with CLOBsTrue.
I have not delt with CLOB data type in the past, so I am hoping to hear from you of any possible issues/hastles we may encounter?You may have more hassle if you "need" to accept more than 4000 characters and you are splitting it into seperate columns or rows, when a CLOB would do it easily.
It seems as though you are trying to find all the negative aspects of CLOBs and ignoring all the positive aspects, and also ignoring the negative aspects of not using CLOB's.
Without context you're assumptions are just that, assumptions, so nobody can tell you if it will be right or wrong to use them. CLOB's do have their uses, just as XMLTYPE's have their uses etc. If you're using them for the right reasons then great, but if you're ignoring them for the wrong reasons then you'll suffer.
