BEST COVER FOR AIR

Anyone have suggestions on best cover for macbook air? I was looking at ZAGG's one or the speck clear one.

I picked up an inexpensive MacBook Air carrying case on eBay. It was only $7.39 shipped. They guy has more if you're interested. It has a nice zipper and it's padded nice inside. It ships from Japan so you have to wait about 10 days to 2 weeks to get it.

    The best cover is the one that suites your needs. Try Google. There are dozens on the market.
    As for the Apple Smart Cover, it does work with the new iPad. There are a few reported issues with it, but that doesn't come close to representing the totality of folks with it.

    best cover for an ipad mini and do you need a keyboard?

    If the iPad is unopened, and in the original box, then it comes with the full warranty. However, if it is used, and comes with an original box, it may or may not have the original warranty; if there's still some warranty left, the original seller should have transferred the warranty to you.

    The only way you can add to your warranty is by extending an Applecare contract.

  • What is the best cover for the Ipod 16 in your opinion?

    Hi,
    I would like to buy a cover for my Ipod Touch 16. I would like something that doesn't interfear with the use of the touchscreen but at the same time protects my Ipod from scratches and damage. I appreciate your comments and advice. :o}

    I use a combination of 2 things. I use the DLO leather folio hipcase in addition to the power support anti-glare film set. The leather folio hipcase keeps my iPod touch hidden when the flap is closed when I am on the subway and is very stylish with soft leather. It also protects the screen and the rest of the iPod touch. The power support anti-glare film set is not your a normal screen protecter it protects from scratches, finger prints and also allows better traction of the touch screen and last but not least has an anti-glare function. The power support anti-glare film set is more expensive than other screen protecters but can be reapplied and doesnt leave a sticky residue (static-cling instead.
    Here are the links for both:

  • What is the best cover for Palm TX.

    Hi, I know you are going to think this is a stupid question, but here goes.  I love my Palm TX.  It has replaced my laptop for most purposes.  I take it every where I go, carrying it in my breast pocket of my shirt.  When I bought it, it came with a little flip cover that had kind of an anti-slip surface that helped to keep it from slipping out of my pocket when I bend over.  After lots of bending back and forth the flip cover finally broke off.  I bought a leather case for it but that made it to bulky to fit in my shirt pocket.  Now I carry it without any cover but it slips out easily.  I have looked all over for another anti-slip flip cover like the one that came with it, but I can't find one anywhere.  There are tons of covers out there, but it is hard to tell if they will be right for the way I use my palm tx.  What I am looking for is a slim cover that has an anti-slip surface so it won't fall out of my pocket.  Anybody here know where I can find something like this?  Thanks for the help.
    Post relates to: Palm TX

    As HBZ indicated, the flip cover is mounted to a rail that slides into a channel on the side of the TX.  It slides out through the bottom end of the TX.
    Just push, it has a slight detent in it (a bump) that holds it in place in the channel.

  • Best Stylus for air 2

    I have read about problems with the Air 2 touchscreen and many popular Bluetooth styli such as Adonit. I have the Pencil by 53 but it has limited app support and I am interested in a finer point stylus. Any updates on this problem? Adonit attributes it to a power-saving mode in the touchscreen refresh rate,

    Look at Wacom styli. They have some that have finer points that list compatibility with later iOS devices (I want one for my iPad 2 but it's too early, the compatibility comes with iPad 3+
    I would also suggest that you look into a screen protector for your ipad. I looked at the Adonit ones and several reviews did mention micro scratches on the screen. So may be worth protecting since your screen can't be unscratched. (if you use rubber tipped styli you should be fine, it's the other powered ones that sometimes have harder tips that can scratch - at least according to the reviews

  • Best cover for iphone

    can't wait to get mine, most likely next month and i need a case so i don't break it. i know that there are some that have glass screens that go over the screen thats already on it and wanted to know if these were worth it and if it impaired the use of it at all since the screen would be covered by another sheet of glass. i also like the jam jacket. i just want to know what you all use and which works the best, for safety and usability. thanx, and it also need to fit in my pocket with the case on it unless there is a firm clip so i can clamp it on my pants. thanx

    check out itsmemorpheus on youtube - he has reviewed most cases and is very honest - he uses the cases for a couple of days so you know he has tried them out. Think of a case and he has reviewed it - if not suggest a case and he will get it and review it. He's fab!

  • Best practices for Air application distribution

    I am going to need to develop an AIR application. I am a bit confused how I will deliver updated version it when something has been changed. Will the users have to reinstall it every time I let them know that there is a newer version available? A reason I am asking is that with a web based applications I dont have that problem, every time I export newer version it becomes available immediately.
    Thanks

    Look at this article http://www.adobe.com/devnet/air/articles/air_update_framework.html

  • Best practice for images. Air for Android

    Hey guys...
    I was thinking about the best solution when it comes to images storage for Air on Android.
    Since I dont have much experience with non-web based apps, I thought of two way and I would like to know your thought on them.
    1.Application Storage Directory. If I get it right, this folder is created when the app is installed and the project can access files in it. Any idea on how this can work with images?
    2.Database. My app uses a local database anyway so maybe that the proper way to do it. I've done some research and found out that the image must be converted to a byte array (thats easy) but then I dont have a clue on how to save it to the database.
    So? Which one is better for the mobile world?
    Also, if there are other ways let me know please.

    While I am no expert in this area, I did run across this blog:
    http://www.remotesynthesis.com/post.cfm/local-caching-of-remote-images-in-air-for-android
    It deal with local caching of remotely loaded images.  Should be exactly what you are looking for.

  • What is the best skin for new Macbook Air 13"?

    What is the best skin for new Macbook Air 13"?
    I have a new Air and want to protect it from scratches and such.
    Thanks in advance

    Sorry, I don't like "skins". They inhibit the heat transfer necessary to keep your MBA cool. Get a soft or hard case to store it when not in use. I like Speck products.
    Just take care of it. Battle scars make it uniquely yours.

  • Where to find the best application for cleaning out my MacBook Air with OS X 10.7.5? I've been using MacKeeper but believe it's slowing down my laptop considerable.

    where to find the best application for cleaning out my MacBook Air with OS X 10.7.5? I've been using MacKeeper but believe it's slowing down my laptop considerable. Thank you.

    How to maintain a Mac
    1. Make redundant backups, keeping at least one off site at all times. One backup is not enough. Don’t back up your backups; make them independent of each other. Don’t rely completely on any single backup method, such as Time Machine. If you get an indication that a backup has failed, don't ignore it.
    2. Keep your software up to date. In the Software Update preference pane, you can configure automatic notifications of updates to OS X and other Mac App Store products. Some third-party applications from other sources have a similar feature, if you don’t mind letting them phone home. Otherwise you have to check yourself on a regular basis. This is especially important for complex software that modifies the operating system, such as device drivers. Before installing any Apple update, you must check that all such modifications that you use are compatible.
    3. Don't install crapware, such as “themes,” "haxies," “add-ons,” “toolbars,” “enhancers," “optimizers,” “accelerators,” "boosters," “extenders,” “cleaners,” "doctors," "tune-ups," “defragmenters,” “firewalls,” "barriers," “guardians,” “defenders,” “protectors,” most “plugins,” commercial "virus scanners,” "disk tools," or "utilities." With very few exceptions, this stuff is useless, or worse than useless. Above all, avoid any software that purports to change the look and feel of the user interface.
    The more actively promoted the product, the more likely it is to be garbage. The most extreme example is the “MacKeeper” scam.
    As a rule, the only software you should install is that which directly enables you to do the things you use a computer for — such as creating, communicating, and playing — and does not modify the way other software works. Use your computer; don't fuss with it.
    Safari extensions, and perhaps the equivalent for other web browsers, are a partial exception to the above rule. Most are safe, and they're easy to get rid of if they don't work. Some may cause the browser to crash or otherwise malfunction.  Some are malicious. Use with caution, and install only well-known extensions from relatively trustworthy sources, such as the Safari Extensions Gallery.
    Never install any third-party software unless you know how to uninstall it. Otherwise you may create problems that are very hard to solve.
    4. Beware of trojans. A trojan is malicious software (“malware”) that the user is duped into installing voluntarily. Such attacks were rare on the Mac platform until sometime in 2011, but are now increasingly common, and increasingly dangerous.
    There is some built-in protection against downloading malware, but you can’t rely on it — the attackers are always at least one day ahead of the defense. You can’t rely on third-party protection either. What you can rely on is common-sense awareness — not paranoia, which only makes you more vulnerable.
    Never install software from an untrustworthy or unknown source. If in doubt, do some research. Any website that prompts you to install a “codec” or “plugin” that comes from the same site, or an unknown site, is untrustworthy. Software with a corporate brand, such as Adobe Flash Player, must be acquired directly from the developer. No intermediary is acceptable, and don’t trust links unless you know how to parse them. Any file that is automatically downloaded from a web page without your having requested it should go straight into the Trash. A website that claims you have a “virus,” or that anything else is wrong with your computer, is rogue.
    In OS X 10.7.5 or later, downloaded applications and Installer packages that have not been digitally signed by a developer registered with Apple are blocked from loading by default. The block can be overridden, but think carefully before you do so.
    Because of recurring security issues in Java, it’s best to disable it in your web browsers, if it’s installed. Few websites have Java content nowadays, so you won’t be missing much. This action is mandatory if you’re running any version of OS X older than 10.6.8 with the latest Java update. Note: Java has nothing to do with JavaScript, despite the similar names. Don't install Java unless you're sure you need it. Most people don't.
    5. Don't fill up your boot volume. A common mistake is adding more and more large files to your home folder until you start to get warnings that you're out of space, which may be followed in short order by a boot failure. This is more prone to happen on the newer Macs that come with an internal SSD instead of the traditional hard drive. The drive can be very nearly full before you become aware of the problem. While it's not true that you should or must keep any particular percentage of space free, you should monitor your storage consumption and make sure you're not in immediate danger of using it up. According to Apple documentation, you need at least 9 GB of free space on the startup volume for normal operation.
    If storage space is running low, use a tool such as the free application OmniDiskSweeper to explore your volume and find out what's taking up the most space. Move rarely-used large files to secondary storage.
    6. Relax, don’t do it. Besides the above, no routine maintenance is necessary or beneficial for the vast majority of users; specifically not “cleaning caches,” “zapping the PRAM,” "resetting the SMC," “rebuilding the directory,” "defragmenting the drive," “running periodic scripts,” “dumping logs,” "deleting temp files," “scanning for viruses,” "purging memory," "checking for bad blocks," "testing the hardware," or “repairing permissions.” Such measures are either completely pointless or are useful only for solving problems, not for prevention.
    The very height of futility is running an expensive third-party application called “Disk Warrior” when nothing is wrong, or even when something is wrong and you have backups, which you must have. Disk Warrior is a data-salvage tool, not a maintenance tool, and you will never need it if your backups are adequate. Don’t waste money on it or anything like it.

  • What's the best solution for audio out of sound files from a MacBook Air to both an amplifier and to a subwoofer amplifier? I'm using the MBA to play sound files for worship services at our church.

    I have a MacBook Air (13", 1.7GHz, 8GB RAM, 500GB SSD) that I'll be using to play sound files (primarily organ and piano) for worship services at my church. We'll be using a QSC RMX2450 650 Watts/Channel amplifier with Community CPL-27 speakers and also a JBL SUB 250P powered subwoofer with its own amplifier. What's the best option for getting sound out from the Mac to both of these amplifiers? 

    if you work with own recorded sounds you might wanna have a music program where you want to work with samples, steinberg has got very good ones (so they say)... but their really really ( ²) expensive(that's why almost no one haves them), magix haves good ones too bu their more for 'unprofessional' use, ableton haves really good ones too and they're not to difficult to use (if you know a bit of those programs you learn very quickly) and if you don't get them, there is a sort of manual built in it which explains and lets you do things to start (basics)
    i hope this helped, btw stereo speakers are always better if you buy good ones (no pc speakers), but if you don't think you need them, don't buy them...
    so again, i hope you have some ideas now

  • Best workflow for creating games for pc and starling games in AIR

    best workflow for creating games for pc and starling games in AIR.
    I need to develop for tablets with starling and AIR as well as for pc without starling ie: downloading from a server.
    In starling you have to
    1. instantiate starling
    2. use texture atlases for loading graphic assets - well its the recommended way
    3. use juggler
    etc...
    ie: with all these differences is it best to:
    1. create completely different projects
    2. just create different classes for the starling specific parts
    3. use a conditional compile constant
        eg: CONFIG::STARLING
                "then do this"
    or      CONFIG::CPU
              "then do this"
    I currently have the latter but it feels a little messy. I would prefer separate classes for each platform where the image loading is concerned.
    There must be so many game developers out there but in large gaming companies that know exactly what to do. Perhaps you can point me in the right direction with a book or something.
    CHEERS

    The other thing is that I can't see the games being very different as you suggest. I have downloaded Lee Brimelows tut on creating a starling game on Lynda.com and the code is great for creating games using states for menu, play, gameover etc... The only difference is that he uses texture atlas and there is a great difference in loading them etc... so technically you would only need to handle them in a different class as collision and the rest of game play should be the same in both. I think!!!
    Well, actually not exactly but near enough - maybe it might be easier to create separate projects and just cut and paste the new code introduced.
