Archive and install: Should I use original or recently installed Leopard?

My daughter is in China and her MacBook Pro powered off during a restart after installing program updates. She needs to archive and install and I need to ship her the correct disk for it. Genius Bar said to use original disk that came with her computer, but she recently upgraded to Leopard (which I didn't think to mention to them). Which should she use for doing the archive and install? Should I send her both, just in case?
Thanks for any advice.

srobs:
Welcome to Apple Discussions.
If she is running currently running Leopard she should use the Leopard install disk else she would be back to Tiger and would have to Archive and Install again to get to Leopard. Because things can go wrong during this or any major procedure she should backup/clone prior to the Archive and Install.

Should I use HPSA application to install recommended HP updates, windows updates and tune-ups?

Should I use HPSA application to install recommended HP updates, windows updates and tune-ups? I understand you can select the updates that you want to install but I always select and install the recommended updates through HPSA.
Thanks.

Yes you can except for BIOS update. Rest if you like, you could confirm if the version and date of the driver notified is that which is given in your HP support page.
You can follow the suggestions given in your other thread: http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Notebook-Operating-Systems-and-Software/HP-Support-Assistant-gt-HP-Upda...

Is it possible to automate Adobe Reader to load files, then set the staple property and location, then print them out? I've seen in .NET 3.0 that there is a Enumeration for Stapling in the System.Printing Namespace. I need to figure out how to automate the printing in adobe but right before it prints, have .NET assign the printer and whether it should be stapled or not.

When should a subclass have its own fields and when should it use its super

When should a subclass have its own fields and when should it use its superclass' fields?
Hi, thank you for reading this post!
Let me use a specific example to ask my question.
public class BankAccount {
     private double accountBalance;
     public double getBalance() {
          return this.accountBalance;
public class SavingsAccount extends BankAccount {
     private double accountBalance;
     public double getBalance() {
          return this.accountBalance;
}In the bank account example, both BankAccount and SavingsAccount will have a method getBalance(). Therefore, they
both require a account balance field. My question is since getBalance() for both classes will perform the exact same
operation, when should I omit declaring the getBalance() method and the accountBalance field in the subclass, and
when should I include them?
My own thought is when we never have to instantiate a superclass object (e.g. an abstract class), then we place
common fields in the abstract superclass and have subclasses access these fields via protected getter/setters to
access the superclass' fields. This is the principle of reuse.
But when you do need to instantiate a superclass and the superclass does need to maintain its own fields, then
I would need to duplicate the accountBalance field and getBalance() method in the subclass.
Is my thinking correct or incorrect?
Thank you in advance for your help!

If SavingsAccount inherit BankAccount.getBalance()...getBalance() would return BankAccount's accountBalance. This is NOT the correct result we want.Actually, I think it's precisely what you want.
We want getBalance() to return BankAccount's accountBalance when we use a BankAccount object, and SavingsAccount's accountBalance when we use a SavingsAccount object.I seriously doubt that. I think you're confusing a BankAccount with a Customer, who can have more than one account.
In every system I've ever seen, a SavingsAccount IS-A BankAccount - that is to say, it's a genuine subtype. Now, it may well contain other fields ('interest'?) that a normal account wouldn't, but 'balance' ain't one of them.

What is the difference between saving to "Documents" and "Macintosh HD" and when should you use each one?*

What is the difference between saving to "Documents" and "Macintosh HD" and when should you use each one?

When you save to the folder with the little house icon, the file is placed at
/Users/your_user_name/
You would really have to go out of my way to save at:
(the shortcut for the Boot Drive, regardless of its name).
I am not sure how you decided that Time Machine is not saving your files. The default is for Time Machine to do incremental Backups of everything on all attached drives, except for certain temporary information in Cache files. If you have four Users, Time Machine will back them all up.
Looking at the raw Time Machine backups will tell you very little, because it does lots of its work with Hard Links, and because it does incremental backups, so only files that changed since the last Backup are saved at thet cycle. The way to determine whether Time Machine is saving things is to display the window you care about in the Finder, then invoke the "Star wars"/ "Back, back, back in time" Interface.

Cannot boot using Original OS X Install DVD

Hi. I have some disk issues that I need to repair on my MB's internal hard drive, but first I need to boot from the original OS X Install DVD, so that the internal disk remains unmounted and I can use the Disk Utility from the DVD. I put the DVD in, and reboot the machine holding option. I select the DVD to boot from, and then everything spins for about a minute before a grey screen comes up, and a multi-lingual message informs me that I need to restart my computer. After doing so (requires booting from the internal HDD), I am prompted to send the error up to Apple which I do.
I don't have firewire, so I can't do a Target Mode, the original DVD (I believe is 10.6.3) is not bootable anymore, and I can't make an 8GB USB key restore from the DVD for some reason.
What is going on? How am I supposed to fix the disk issues?

Thank you... I stopped just short of running fsck myself from single user mode, basically because a some discussions.appple.com posts told me it was not a good idea under any circumstances to run fsck instead of disk utility on versions of OS X after 10.5.something. Of course, once I got to the Genius Bar, that was the first thing he did after hearing the symptoms. I asked him why he thought that was discouraged, and he said that there was no harm in it, unless you don't know what you are doing. Anyways, in the middle of fsck, while he was saying we probably were going to just have to do a software refresh, we got an I/O error from the disk. They have now installed a new hard drive, and so far everything is ok.
Two things remain unresolved to me:
1) I was able to select the original OS X install DVD to boot from, and yet, as it tried to boot from the disk, it would eventually draw down a vertical scan of the boot screen, and say (in several languages), that my computer had a problem and needed to be restarted. What I don't get is, if the hard disk is the only thing at fault, why can't I boot entirely from the DVD? Wouldn't a default bootloader be on the DVD itself? Or is that just the pure Linux world that does it that way?
2) I am still concerned that I might not have the "right" install DVD for my computer. I bought a macbook 29 days before the 7,2 (mid 2010) versions came out, and the Apple store was gracious enough to give me the newer model in exchange for mine. The only trick is, I didn't have the box, accessories, or dvds with me at the time, and the salesman said there was no difference, and he would just keep the box for the new one and I shouldn't have any issues. I cannot figure out anyway to determine what the build version is for the DVD I have. Can you help me figure that out?
Thanks again for your help.

DiskWarrior - Will it work, and when should I use it?

I apologize for this dumb question, but have no time to read 50 pages of the DiskWarrior manual.
Actually I have few questions, and hope someone will help. I got my iSight few days ago, and at the same time found in a shop here, in Beijing, DiskWarrior (which is not so easy to get in China). Being exited about getting the new machine, and having in my mind that I want it to work properly this time, I just bought it (and payed quite a lot for it 140 us$!!!) without giving it a good thought previously and mainly because everybody speaks about it as "the must" for every Mac, and now I feel stupid and need to ask:
1. this is a v. 3.0.3, (CD rev. 38) - will it boot from my iSight at all?
2. when actually do I use it, when I realize that there is a problem in my system, or should I use it as a maintenance program?
Thanks a million.
Zo

Hey Zorana. I too had your problem. Here is the text of an email I received from Alsoft, maker of DiskWarrior.
The DiskWarrior CD that you currently own contains DiskWarrior 3.0.3
which will work with Mac OS X 10.4.x (Tiger). However, whether or not a
DiskWarrior CD will start up a computer is based on the model of the
machine, not on the operating system that is installed on the internal drive.
In most cases, older DiskWarrior 3 CDs cannot start up newer machines
because they do not have the necessary System files. To start up the
iMac G5 (with built-in iSight) models that were released in October 2005,
you need a DiskWarrior CD with a more current operating system.
An Update CD (revision 39) with the latest startup System (Mac OS X
10.4.x "Tiger") and DiskWarrior 3.0.3 is available for order by calling
our Sales Department at 800-257-6381 (US Toll Free) or at 281-353-4090
(International). The cost for the Update CD is US$12.95 plus US$7.95
shipping & handling fees.
Finally, if you have purchased DiskWarrior in the last 30 days, we will
send you a CD for the price of shipping.
In the interim, you might utilize one of the following methods to run
DiskWarrior:
(1) Alternate Startup Disk: If you have another drive (such as an
external FireWire drive or an iPod with FireWire) you could install OS X
(the version which came with your computer, or newer) on that drive and
then start from it. Install DiskWarrior on that drive's "Utilities"
folder, (which is inside the "Applications" folder) and run DiskWarrior
from there.
(2) Target Disk Mode: Connect two Macs with a FireWire cable where the
one is the "host" and the other is a "target". The host Mac should be
running OS X (10.2.1 or higher). In this scenario, the target Mac is the
new iMac that cannot be started from the DiskWarrior CD. Start by
shutting down the target Mac. Then turn it on while holding down the "T"
key. The target Mac's drive will appear as a usable drive on the host
Mac. Run DiskWarrior from the host Mac and rebuild the target Mac's disk.

I hope this helps.

What is the best way to archive and store old mail using Apple Mail?

Hi,
I have a number of older emails that I would like to archive and store for potential future access. Even though I have mails from earlier Lotus Notes accounts and Microsoft Office accounts, I am referring in this case only to apple mail data that I ave 'stored on my mac'.
Any advice would be great. At the moment I am using predominantly gmail, so if things go haywire, rebuilding my mail is relatively easy. That said, I tend to file and save locally important messages.
Cheers,
Mark.

This is from Mail's help:
Archive messages
You can store messages in an Archive mailbox so that you can quickly find them later when you’re ready to take action.
Select one or more messages to archive.If you select a conversation, all messages in the conversation are archived.
Choose Message > Archive.An Archive mailbox is created for each account whose messages you archive. For example, if you archive a message sent to your iCloud account and a message sent to your Yahoo! account, an Archive mailbox is created for each account.Archived messages remain in the Archive mailbox until you delete or move them. Depending on the account type, the Archive mailbox is stored on the mail server.
You can customize the Mail toolbar to include the Archive icon.

What are the mapfiles for and when should I use them?

Hi,
what are the map files for and why/when should I use them?
/usr/lib/ld/map.noexstk
usr/lib/ld/map.noexbss
/usr/lib/ld/map.noexdata
/usr/lib/ld/map.pagealign

Hi, I'm sure you've read the comments, but for the benefit of those who haven't: /usr/lib/ld/map.noexstk # Linker mapfile to create a non-executable stack definition within an # executable. /usr/lib/ld/map.noexbss # Link-editor mapfile to create a non-executable bss segment definition # within an executable. /usr/lib/ld/map.noexdata # Link-editor mapfile to create a non-executable data segment definition # within an executable. These stop the various segments from being executable. Which could reduce the risk surface for exploiting security holes in an application. /usr/lib/ld/map.pagealign # Linker mapfile to create page-aligned data within an executable. Aligning the start of the data segment can reduce the number of TLB entries needed to map the data. So the smallest TLB page size is 8KB, then we have 64KB, then 4MB etc. If the data starts on a 4MB boundary then it can be mapped with 4MB pages, if not then it has to be mapped with 8KB pages until a 64KB boundary, then 64KB pages until we get to a 4MB boundary. You sometimes get a bit of performance from this, but you may also get performance stability from it. If the mapping is random sometimes it works well, sometimes it works less well. Regards, Darryl.

What hardware and software should I use to A/V record a piano recital?

If anyone could help me, it would be much appreciated.
Here are more details: I have a MacBook Pro, external FireWire hard drives, access to an HD video camera, and good mics. I'm not worried about the video part, but since this is a piano recital, I need the best possible audio quality, within reason. I was thinking about buying an "Alesis MultiMix 8 FireWire" mixer, and recording all 4 channels I'll need directly onto the computer. What software should I use? What about hardware? There won't be much audio editing afterwards, so I don't exactly need the best editor, just a solid way to record it. Also, how would I mix the audio in with the video to make sure it aligns up properly? Perhaps I should use Final Cut Pro for video and Soundtrack or Logic for recording audio? Thank you for any help you can give me!

The crucial point in piano(any) recording is which microphones you use and where you put them.
I generally have the best results with Schoeps "ORTF Stereo Microphone MSTC 64 U"
http://www.schoeps.de/E-2004/ortf-stereo.html#mstc64
They are pretty expensive so don't buy but rent (or borrow) them. It's not that much for one day.
It's a general way to go for professional recording. Thus you'll always have the best equipement for the lowest cost. Also, the rental shop can be a good help in that they might give you hints for your specific need.
Put the mics at about 1-3 meters from the half open piano(for a concert model). Never inside! Specially if it's piano solo. Distance depends on the hall's acoustics, instrument model, music style etc...
I would record on the camcorder. Some of them have four audio tracks. The audio recorder, whatever audio card, DAT, camcorder ... MUST HAVE XLR inputs and phantom power. You should rent here also.
These are the main points.

JAAS. BEA, when and how should I use it?

Hi,
I am confused and I hope someone at BEA sees this post or someone who knows the
answer steps up and clarifies this issue for me - please.
I have a basic web application, WLS 7, using Struts, Toplink, Oracle 8i. Pretty
standard. In 6.0 we used RDBMS realms to Authenticate and Authorize our users.
We used the web.xml to indicate we were using FORM based authentication and the
SECURITY CONSTRAINTS were using role names that matched what the RDBMS Realms
were pulling from Oracle.
As I read the docs and look at the examples I see all the old stuff is deprecated,
I do see I have the option of running in compatability mode - however I don't
want to do this if this is not the way things will be done in the future.
I followed the steps in the excellent post by Aaron Mulder "Weblogic 7 RDBMS Realm
Procedure" and create my own Authentication provider, deployed it and it seems
to be running. However I am now having problems getting the web.xml to "kick"
when I try and access a resticted resource I am not sent to my FORM Based authentication
login page... shouldn't I be? I would think the security constraints would be
loaded correctly and same with the LOGIN config stuff and that WLS would just
use all the providers but that it would know what to do for things like _security
check and all the contraints in the web.xml.
Am I going down the correct path? Do I just need to now write an Authorization
provider too? In my test in my Authentication provider I put everyone into the
"Administrators" group and use that in my web.xml. I would expect I would be sent
to the login page first, then WLS would upon form submittal, check the Authentication
provider, then my code would say all users are "Administrators", then it would
check that with the web.xml security constraint, then if the role matched would
send me on to the page.
Help :> I just want to get this working and make sure I am using the correct paradigm.
Thanks,

You use JAAS when running in the app maybe, that is up to the container. It
is transparent to the developer. If your writing a J2EE app, you do not need
to write JAAS modules. Use j_security_check and the rest is handled through
the container.
You don't need that runAs() shit or LoginContxt.login() etc.
Only if you are outside the container.
Go head, reinvent the wheel. JAAS is meant for people who write containers,
not for people who use them.
Way to add confusion to an already clouded issue.
Also, let me explain J2EE authorization
You said: "As far as I know, J2EE does not specify how the authentication
is performed, so I don't know how you can say that JAAS goes
against the J2EE spec."
Dude, you define security restraints (authorization) to whatever resources
you want through a web.xml or ejb-jar.xml by asigning roles to them.
Im doing it as we speak.

Michael:
Please see my posts (8771 and 8772). You do use JAAS
when running an app within the WLS container. In fact,
you already are, whether you use the OOTB "new" security
SPI authentication providers or are in Compatibility
Security, in which case you're using JAAS through an adapter
to your old-style Realm.
Concerning "standard" authentication, the J2EE spec says:
"The web client forwards the authentication data to
the web server, where it is validated by the web
server... The validation mechanism may be local to
the server, or it may leverage the underlying
security services. On the basis of the validation,
the web server sets a credential for the user."
(Also, see section J2EE.3.3.2, "Non Goals").
As far as I know, J2EE does not specify how the authentication
is performed, so I don't know how you can say that JAAS goes
against the J2EE spec. WLS chose to use JAAS for authentication
because it's a Java-based implementation of a "standard" (PAM)
and Java security developers are familiar with it...
Jerry, it sounds like you're doing the right thing. You
will want to move away from the old Realm and get out of
Compatibility mode. I'm not sure what specific problem
you're having - if you're not being directed to your login
form page, my guess would be something else is wrong. That
is, I wouldn't expect to see a problem in the new ATN provider
crop up until after you had submitted your form info to
j_security_check. If you're not getting to the login page
at all, it would seem there might be a problem with a URL
mapping in a web resource collection, or something like that.
Just a guess.
Also, I don't think you need to implement your own provider
unless the one that's there doesn't meet your needs. In other
words, I can't see any reason why your authentication provider
couldn't work just fine with all the other WLS OOTB security
providers.

1,1 running Lion with XP Boot (re-install and what should i use for recovery disk or usb stick)?

i am trying to give my 1,1 mac pro a little love and would like to keep this machine running lion. i also have a boot camp installation of XP on it.
1. can anyone give me instructions on how/whether i can basically do a fresh install of Lion on this machine and minimize the system so it is not cluttered up with all my previous software etc, etc while still maintaining the original XP boot camp partition which i really need to have?
2. can anyone clarify for me what i should have on hand /if/ i need to boot into recovery mode or some other safe boot mode? i recently ran into an issue where i may have had to use the old Disk Utility format function and there was a reference to booting using the DVD install disks. however i am really confused as to what i should have on hand. ALSO the last time i had to do something on this machine i was told to boot into the Recovery Partition and it appears for some reason (perhaps because i had a "non-standard" windows 7 boot camp installation on the drive at the time??) that there was no recovery partition created when i upgraded to Lion.
- /anyway/ i am finding that i have the two ORIGINAL install disks for the mac pro on hand, a Max OS X Leopard and a mac OS X Snow Leopard DVD on hand but i am thinking that i should be creating some kind of USB stick similar to the one i created with yosemite? actually, i am not even sure what this USB stick for yosemite is for but i guess i can use it to boot into safe mode or something?
THANKS for any help as i'd like to get this business under control a little better in case i have an issue.
i'd also like to install Lion so that there is a Recovery Partition if possible and i think this may be possible if i don't have the windows 7 partition in the machine when i do a fresh install. any help would be great. thanks.

You have to go out of your way to build the Installer Disk yourself. But this tool makes it easy, and this site contains instructions:
http://diskmakerx.com
the bootable installer is basically to re-install the OS if i have to
Yes.
the recovery partition is somehow for fixing a problem
Recovery can go and get you the software and re-download it and start the Install, and allows the use of Disk Utility and can reset passwords.
or is there some overlap?
Yes. Both give you access to the Utilities that used to be on the Installer DVD. Disk Utility to Repair or initialize and a few other tools that can allow you to set up to install on an otherwise-bare disk or change your password.
is "Safe Mode" something completely different
Safe Mode is a way to start the fully-Installed Operating System in a special way. It first does one pass of Disk Utility (Repair Disk) against the Boot Drive. [Normally this would require booting from a different drive to make repairs.] Then it loads a minimal set of Apple-only kernel extensions, and uses a one-size-fits-all screen resolution. Then it demands your Username and password to proceed.
From there you can fix settings, use the Finder to add or delete things, and check operation with minimal extensions versus all your daily-use extensions. Very helpful for debugging extension conflicts and graphics settings problems, and fixing damaged settings. The next Restart builds a new extensions cache.

What file type and codec should I use for creating a file to send to have an HDCAM copy made

I'm prepping to take a video file of my film into a tape dubbing house to have an HDCAM copy of my project made. I'm using a PC, so Apple ProRes is not an option. What file type, codec, and settings do you recommend?
I was considering MXF, but the highest quality codec is XDCAM 50, which only does up to 50Mbps (I think). I believe HDCAM works at 140Mbps, so I would rather not give them a file that's compressed to almost 1/3rd that, especially since the source is a 5K 5120x2560 project. DPX maybe? I've never exported DPX before because it's not an option on my copy of CS6 - maybe that has to be downloaded separately? I was considering a Quicktim in H.264 at 140Mbps, but I think that would mean some serious rendering for the tape house. I would like to be able to offer them a few different options and see what they prefer, but this is an area where my knowledge runs thin. Any suggestions would be much appreciated. I'm hoping there's an industry standard that I can stick to.

DPX maybe? I've never exported DPX before because it's not an option on my copy of CS6 - maybe that has to be downloaded separately?
Your CS6 'Format' dropdown list should include DPX:
Among the options you listed, DPX would be my choice.
Be certain the dupe house can accept these files before proceeding.

What is BitLocker and Why Should We Use It in Windows 7 Ultimate & Windows 8 ?

Hello ppl. Today, I'll try to tell you about BitLocker function in Windows 7 Ultimate & Windows 8 in clear words. When we save a document in our harddisk folders these info are easily can be acquired by a hackers if your system is insecure though a good hacker can beat all kinds of antivirus and firewall software. But !!!
If your data are saved encrypted on your harddisk, it is impossible to see that data though these clever guys stole your sensitive info. Because the data can not be seen without a log in password if they have been saved with encryption!!! So here is what BitLocker does!!!
BitLocker saves all your information by encrypting them so you dont have to worry about your sensitive data anymore! Even if they are stolen by other ppl, it's impossible to see your valued work sheets or other personal data such as pics and bank account information as long as you have a good BitLocker password like A3#Be$%Er or whatever.
BitLocker is a standart feature added to Windows 8 but you should upgrade to Windows 7 Ultimate to use it in Windows 7.
I'll also start a topic about how to activate BitLocker in Windows 8 shortly.
I try to tell in clean words when I create a topic to help those who have basic knowledge about IT. I hope this helped. If you still have questions about BitLocker please dont hesitate to ask me about them.

Hi
Thank you for your post . This is a good information which can help users to be protected from hackers
