He gave security ? numbers and a name I must contact to have the money sent to my address which I was asked to give in an email to Mr Petersen whitehead skype cash [email protected]
The prize amount is very tempting ofcourse, but my son said it has to be checked out as he thinks it is a definite scam. what can I do about this?...anyone know Please. I am 83 years old, and only use skype to contact my relatives and friends who are overseas.

Need help optimizing the writing of a very large array and streaming it a file

Hi,
I have a very large array that I need to create and later write to a TDMS file. The array has 45 million entries, or 4.5x10^7 data points. These data points are of double format. The array is created by using a square pulse waveform generator and user-defined specifications of the delay, wait time, voltages, etc.
I'm not sure how to optimize the code so it doesn't take forever. It currently takes at least 40 minutes, and I'm still running it, to create and write this array. I know there needs to be a better way, as the array is large and consumes a lot of memory but it's not absurdly large. The computer I'm running this on is running Windows Vista 32-bit, and has 4GB RAM and an Intel Core 2 CPU @ 1.8Mhz.
I've read the "Managing Large Data Sets in LabVIEW" article (http://zone.ni.com/devzone/cda/tut/p/id/3625), but I'm unsure how to apply the principles here. I believe the problem lies in making too many copies of the array, as creating and writing 1x10^6 values takes < 10 seconds, but writing 4x10^6 values, which should theoretically take < 40 seconds, takes minutes.
Is there a way to work with a reference of an array instead of a copy of an array?
Attached is my current VI, Generate_Square_Pulse_With_TDMS_Stream.VI and it's two dependencies, although I doubt they are bottlenecking the program.
Any advice will be very much appreciated.
Thanks

Thanks Ravens Fan, using replace array subset and initializing the array beforehand sped up the process immensely. I can now generate an array of 45,000,000 doubles in about one second.
However, when I try to write all of that out to TDMS at the end LV runs out of memory and crashes. Is it possible to write out the data in blocks and make sure memory is freed up before writing out the next block? I can use a simple loop to write out the blocks, but I'm unsure how to verify that memory has been cleared before proceeding. Furthermore, is there a way to ensure that memory and all resources are freed up at the end of the waveform generation VI?
Attached is my new VI, and a refined TDMS write VI (I just disabled the file viewer at the end). Sorry that it's a tad bit messy at the moment, but most of that mess comes from doing some arithmetic to determine which indices to replace array subsets with. I currently have the TDMS write disabled.
Just to clarify the above, I understand how to write out the data in blocks; my question is: how do I ensure that memory is freed up between subsequent writes, and how do I ensure that memory is freed up after execution of the VI?
@Jeff: I'm generating the waveform here, not reading it. I guess I'm not generating a "waveform" but rather a set of doubles. However, converting that into an actual waveform can come later.
Thanks for the replies!

I just did a software update and iPhoto was on that update. Now, when I open iPhoto app, I get this message:Your photo library will not be readable by previous versions of iPhoto after the upgrade. The upgrade process for very large libraries may ta

if I click Upgrade, will I lose my photos (over 10,000).

OT is correct. I was a little freaked by that message a few days ago... especially after spending time reading people's freak outs about access to data after making the iCloud switch. But since I had a backup copy on two other drives, I went for it because I could see no alternative.
Update went through, and all my photos are still there

Transcode not needed, but the exported files are very large

Hi. I imported a video file (*.m2v) and its associated audio file (*.wav) to Encore. These two files were transcoded and exported by Premiere Pro (setting of the Encoder was MPREG-2 DVD). Now, in Encore, I chose NOT to transcode, because the files are DVD compliant already, and second their total size was less than a DVD's capacity (video file 3.3GB, 6Mbps;;;; Audio file 850MB, 1.5Mbps). My question:why did the Exported Dvd have 7.5GB in size?? Though the total size of video and audio is (3.3+0.8=4.1GB). I have a main menue only that has no fancy stuff nor motion.

Thanks Ruud Blauw. You were right. I used the same assets in two time lines, which resulted in exporting the movie in two twin copies, each was put as a single title in the DVD. What bothers me is that I had no way of seeing this on the [Timeline Viewer]; in other words, I couldnt see two time lines before I export the movie.
After experimenting, I realized that the first"wrong" situation differed from the new"correct" situatioin in only the [Project Tab]: the 'wrong' situation had 4 items in the [Project Tab]: Video file, Video Timeline, Audio File, Audio Timeline. On the other hand, the 'correct' situation had a [Project Panel] which had only 3items: Video File, Video Timeline, Audio File. This means that the difference was only the existence of an Audio Timeline.
Although I am new to Encore, this makes no sense to me. But fortunately it got resolved.

Getting message about not enough storage on my iphone 5s. The "Attachment file is very large and I have erased all documents in it, yet it still shows a large volume of storage being used.

I am getting a message that I am running out of storage on my Iphone 5s. The problem may be in my mailboxes. I have eliminated many emails and all documents in the "Attachments file. However, the attachment file still shows an number that is over 4 billion (not sure is this is the number of documents or what it represents) Is this is the source of my storage problem, I'm not sure how to solve it.

Couple of things to try:
If you can access the account on a computer - make sure that the offending email is no longer there
Then delete the email account on the phone - no email loss is incurred
Then reset the phone - hold down home and sleep buttons together until you see Apple logo and then release and allow normal boot up - no data loss
Then reinstall the email account

When using crop tool based on canvas size dimensions, the file size becomes very large

Can someone explain how to best figure out crop tool settings to maintain relative file size? I tried to use the image / canvas size information to set the crop tools dimensions, but the file saved is 10 times larger than the original.
Thanks!

What exact version of Photoshop? There were changes to the crop tool as of CS6, althoughy there's an option to use Classic (the old crop tool behaviour).
It wouldn't hurt to specify your platform (Mac or Win)…
If you give complete and detailed information about your setup and the issue at hand, such as your platform (Mac or Win), exact versions of your OS, of Photoshop and of Bridge, machine specs, what troubleshooting steps you have taken so far, what error message(s) you receive, if having issues opening raw files also the exact camera make and model that generated them, etc., someone may be able to help you better and faster.

Acrobat xi makes my icons very large and the program very large. It is like everything is super big. Then it really does not work well to view files. What can I do?

My Acrobat XI enlarges my desktop, and the program is also very large. I cannot see the whole screen because it is so large. When I end Acrobat everything returns to normal. I just want to use Acrobat XI to read pdf files.

Hi Pat, that is the problem I am having. I have tried to change my scale for screen settings to 100%, but every time I change it, the next time I open the program, it reverts to system settings. It is not saving the new change I made. I have looked all over for a save command but there isn’t any. I even went to my regedit settings and did exactly what the instructions say. Still the same problem. Everything is at least 200%. Once I exit the Reader, everything reverts to normal. What am I doing wrong? Or what else can I do?
Thanks.

Setting the 'reportable' flag for a very large ODS

Hello Community,
I am working on a very large BW system (6 Tb), and we recently have the need to set the 'BEx Reporting' flag on some very large ODS objects.
It was my impression that setting this flag would be easy to do. But the transport that contains this flag for six large ODS objects has already been running for more than 16 hours.
Can you tell me, what actually happens in the database when the 'BEx Reporting' flag is turned on for an ODS ?
Thanks !
Keith

Hello Bhanu,
Thanks for the quick response. Are you able to provide some more information ?
are the SID values created in a new SID table ?
if the ODS was already very large, then would you expect the new SID table to also be very large ?
what about the case if a SID value already exists for the characteristic ?
Thank you !
Keith

I have a desktop K7-ll74PC. The Icons have gotten very big. how to reset.

My icons have gotten very big and I have called support but to no avail. They are just reading from a manual and I am beside myself to find the right solution. I have reset the computer many times per the help desk. I am ready to return the computer and moniter.

Hello banditsmask, You might try resetting the screen resolution to a higher resolution.
Right click on the desktop and select screen resolution and slide the slider tab to a resolution of your choosing.
If the resolution is set to 800x600, the icons would be very large. Setting the resolution to a hgher setting will make everything on the screen look smaller.
It appears the model number you listed is incorrect, since the HP support site could not locate a system with the model number you listed.

How to limit the music downloaded from a large iTunes library loading on iPad to minimize space usage?

I'm having trouble with my iPad 2 iTunes Match loading all of the music from my very large iTunes library off my Pc to my iPad. I really only want a few playlists. Do I have to delete all of the music off my iPad that I don't want? Will it remove those songs from my main library if I'm connected to iCloud and music match? Help!

Move the itunes Library.itl file to your exHD.
Then to get itunes to start using it from that new location, press *and hold* the shift key while starting itunes. Choose "use existing library" and browse out to the ITL file that is now on the exHD.
Future app downloads will go to the Mobile Applications folder created there. It will also start downloading the itunes store artwork to the exHD.
You can try downloading a free app to test it.

Movie very large (So Close yet so Far away)

Ok so im about seconds away of finishing up my feature film. I have the menu and its very large. The movie it self is 1 hour and 27 minutes. And there are 5 features leading to be about another 1 hour and 30 minutes.
I compressed everything but still the actual movie takes up 3GB of the disk. And with everything is about 5 GB.
How do i make al lof this fit in the quickest time possiable

Have you tried using Quick Time directly? You can export from there as MPEG2 as well... you just don't get the bells and whistles that you get with Compressor.
If you are likely to do a lot of this kind of work then I can really recommend that you invest in a different encoder as well - BitVice or MegaPEG.X are the two to use on a Mac. Both are a couple of hundred dollars or so... and well worth it!
About Compressor not starting - if you look in the Compressor forum there are umpteen references to this problem. For the most part they can be resolved by re-starting your machine, which in turn re-starts the qmaster service. However, you can also do this from Terminal if you need to. This from a post a long time ago... not from me, I add:
Launch Terminal (Application>Utilities>Terminal) and type this:
sudo /Library/StartupItems/Qmaster/Qmaster
Then hit return, then enter your administrative password. Then you should get a message about Qmaster services starting up.
Re-launch Compressor, see if it works.
Or
go to finder, go, go to folder
type /etc/
view as icons
locate "hostconfig" and COMMAND then click on fileand drag to desktop. To do this, you MUST press command FIRST then while holding it down click the file and drag to desktop – if you’ve clicked on the file first, the command click you will unselect the file. If you don't get it the first time, keep trying.
Once on the desktop, rename the file to "hostconfig.old" all lower case
COMMAND drag the newly named file back into the etc folder.
That's it! Restart your machine and start-up compressor.
If those two don't solve it, you'll need to hunt around for other solutions, I'm afraid.

Buffered TDMS file still very large

Hello, I am trying to to stream to a TDMS file. I am writing approximately 10 channels of data at 20 Hz. I was creating a new file evey 5 mins or so and defragging the file once I was finished with it, which was giving me a reasonable size of file. I decided that I would like to make bigger files (over the period of hours) and the the defragging would be too computationally costly to do on the fly. I have been trying to set a buffer for the TDMS files but the resultant files are very large. You can tell the file isn't being writen until its closed (from watching its size in windows explorer) which suggests the file is being buffered. However its about 6 times bigger than an ASCII file of the same data, with and index almost as big again.
Does anyone have any ideas why it would appear to buffer but not actually reduce the data size. I'm running Windows XP, LabVIEW 10.0.
When I create each new file I run this to set the buffers. (I have also hard wired in a buffersize of 100000 on a one minute file to no avail.
Niall
Thanks
Niall

I has this marked as the solution but it turns out it only helped one of my programs. I am still getting very large (fragmented) TDMS and index files for another program. The problem is that if I just defrag the (supposedly buffered) file, it interupts the data logging because it takes so long. I'm 99% sure that it *is* buffereing as it doesn't write till it closes the file, and if I use the read properties function it reads back a set buffer size. Here is the VI that actually writes the data. There bit at the top is for writing an optional acii file so you can ignore that.
Its maybe a bit hard to see whats going on in the next one, but this is where the file is created before being passed to the setbuffer VI which I posted earlier. It also closes that last file
Its really hacking me off now and holding me up from going no to other stuff. It would be great if someone had some ideas.
Thanks
Niall

File size is very large in 7.0 coamparing to 3.X

Hi,
When saving the query in 7.0 the file size become very large as compare to saving the same query with the same amount of data in 3.X. Is there any solution to take care of this problem and reduced the file size in 7.0. Please advice.
Thanks
Isac

Hi,
The file size increases due to the high formatting options in BI 7.0.
Remove the formatting option from the work book setting in the Bex analyzer in design mode.
