  • What is the BEST way to delete an app on an iPhone 4S so it will NOT be added back when I sync with iTunes?

    What is the BEST way to delete an app on an iPhone 4S so it will NOT be added back when I sync with iTunes?

    To completely remove an app and all of its data, do this: First delete the app on your phone, then in iTunes, under Library, click on Apps, right-click the app you want to delete & select delete, when prompted, move all files to trash, empty your trash. Connect your phone and sync. The app and all of its data will be gone.

  • What's the best way to convert from Gmail to iCloud?

    I currently use Google's free exchange server and sync my contacts and calendar to Google even though I pretty much do all my emailing from either mac, iphone, or ipad. Since it sounds like it's hard to sync to both google and icloud at the same time, would like to make the switch. Is there a FAQ out there? Can I keep my google email and sync just the contacts w/iCloud or is it an all-or-nothing proposition? If so, is that what others do? Any advice / pointers appreciated. Thanks.

  • What is the best way of converting a Top Level VI into a 'sub vi' - or function ( without duplicating programming)

    Hi,
    General question here about design architecture, which i keep running into, but haven't found a really good solution.  If i write a 'Top Level VI' to do something, what is the best way of converting it into a subVI - which is call-able from other VIs, while still allowing the top level VI to have synchronised feedback/indicator updates.
    I guess the point is that when something is a top level VI you write gui logic about what happens when someone clicks buttons or whatever - which you don't want in the 'sub vi' version.
    I did at one point try having a hidden boolean button that was an input to the subVI which would let the VI know if it was supposed to be doing the front panel stuff - or simply running as a subVI.  This isn't really ideal though - since it would be better to be able to hive off the grizzly useful stuff from the fluffy - front panel updating stuff - having them together makes the VIs rather untidy.  More annoyingly though, if you have the front panel version of it running - say waiting for you to hit 'go', it breaks all the other VIs that use it as a sub vi - since they can't compile when a sub vi is already running.
    Another possibility that i tried was to basically duplicate the vi so that there was a backend part, and a front end part - and when i click 'go' the backend part is called as a sub vi.  The problem with this is that it really limits the interface that the user gets - since none of the controls on the front panel update with the results untill the sub vi is over.  I guess again i could solve this by passing references to some of the controls to update them in the subvi - but this doesn't really seem like the ideal situation if the subvi is called by something else without the same types of controls etc.
    One final idea i had was to essentially paste all the controls in the VI into a global variable file, and make the sub vi update them, and the front panel VI read from them.  This seems to 'work' - although clearly it is a work around rather than a proper solution - since i spend loads of time worrying about how i update cluster variables in the global - reading and writing.
    Does anyone have any guidance on what they do to solve this problem?
    JP

    You could run a subvis in a Subpanel on your top level.  Lets you see the current data while the subvi is running.

  • What is the best way of converting everything in a result set into a string

    hello folks
    What do you think is the best way of converting everything in a resultset into a string???
    At the moment I'm using
    rs.getString(i);
    everywhere (no matter if the underlying datatype is a date or whatever..) it converts automatically evertything expect NULL into a valid string.
    Are there better (simple to use..) ways?

    I don't see a big switch construct. How about trying the following:
    Call this method from your original method by passing the resultset obtained.
    public String[] convert(ResultSet rs) {
         int col = ((ResultSetMetaData) rs.getMetaData()).getColumnCount();
         String[] record = new String[col];
         int i=0;
         while(rs.next()) {
              if(rs.wasNull()) record[i] = new String();
              else record[i] = rs.getString(i);
              i++;
         return record;

  • WHat is the best way for other iphone users to share pictures with me?  I am doing a project which req. people to send me 100 pictures at a time that I'll be putting in my iphoto?

    WHat is the best way for other iphone users to share pictures with me?  I am doing a project which req. people to send me 100 pictures at a time that I'll be putting in my iphoto? thank you.

    ingridlisa,
    I'd suggest to ask them to create Shared PhotoStreams and to invite you to view the streams, see:
    iCloud: Using and troubleshooting Shared Photo Streams
    Regards
    Léonie
    Added:
    that I'll be putting in my iphoto?
    Will you be collecting the photos in iPhoto on your iPhone or on a Mac? On a Mac a Shared PhotoStream requires Mac OS X 10.8.2.

  • What is the best way to build an app?

    what is the best way to build an app?

    I've never done it, but sure, all sorts of companies will contract to code up an application for you - big companies like Honeywell and General Dynamics to Joe Programmer free-lancing out of his house will contract for computer coding projects.  Without knowing details of the app to be developed I have no idea what it would cost or how long it would take.  Some of the free-lance programmers I personally know bill out at over (some, well over) $100/hour.
    If you really think your idea is great, then be sure to approach discussing it with a developer as a business transaction.  Almost every company will have an unsolicted ideas policy in place (Apple explicitly does under their legal information page) and any unsolicited ideas sent in become the intellectual property of the company (by sending the idea unsolicited, you have legally "given" it to them).
    P.S. as to how long to learn how to program well?  Some people spend an entire college degree's worth of time and effort to master that.

  • BEST WAY to "Restore" desired apps/files after HD upgrade...

    I just replaced the 120GB HD on my MBP with a 500GB. I have both a complete SuperDuper back up and Time Machine/Time Capsule back up. I'd rather not restore the 'junk' that may have affected the performance previously.
    Anyone have any suggestions about the BEST WAY to get the apps and settings I desire; specifically: Entourage mail folders and contents
    iTunes music
    Safari bookmarks
    iPhotos
    etc....
    Any full proof ways to accomplish each of these?
    Much thanks in advance.

    The best time to clean up the "junk" would have been before cloning. Now what you'll need to do is clone everything from the SuperDuper backup onto the new drive, then sort out whatever problems you may have brought forward. And finally, reclone the drive to the backup drive so you'll have a "clean" clone.

  • What is the best way to convert mini dv tapes to digital

    I have a Canon ZR800 that I have created several mini dv tapes with.  What is the best way to convert these tapes I made to a digital format?  I have a Macbook to use for the digital format.

    Hello Jhoslter,
    To transfer footage from the ZR800 to your Mac, you will need a firewire (IEEE-1394) cable and a firewire port on your computer.  If your computer is not equipped with a firewire port, we would suggest contacting your computer manufacturer for information regarding which firewire card will work best on your system.
    As it is only possible to transfer video to a computer via firewire connection with the Canon camcorder, any video capturing program that supports firewire connections should be fine to use to transfer video to your computer.  Canon does not manufacture video capturing programs or support a particular brand.   
    Canon does not require firewire drivers for any of our miniDV camcorders.  Our camcorders use the driver for your firewire card to communicate with the computer.
    The appearance of the "DV IN" message in the camcorder's LCD screen indicates that the camcorder has detected your firewire port and is waiting for a signal from the video editing software to begin the transfer of footage.  The remainder of the transfer process is controlled by that software; we would suggest reviewing the instructions for that program for further information.

  • Looking for best way to convert 35 mm slides to digital images

    Hello Apple Community,
    Am researching best ways to convert several hundred 35 mm slides into digital images.  There are numerous scanners/converters out there but want to ensure I get the best unit compatable with my iMac (27 inch, Late 2009).  Any suggestions welcome.

    For scanning 35mm slides you need a scanner with a good photometric resolution and geometric resolution.
    For the photometric resolution: Get a scanner with a high density range (D-max) value, to get a good resolution of highlights and shadows.
    For the geometric resolution - sharpness and detail - try to get at least 3200 dp,i to be able to get good 8"x10" prints from your scanned slides, a higher dpi value, if you want to be able to print larger images.

  • Best way to sync iphone and ipod touch

    I have had an ipod touch for some time and have just got an iphone. Ideally I want to keep the ipod touch for music, games etc and use the phone purely for internet, phone etc and maybe a couple of cd's on there. Is there a best way to sync them both - ie something I should make sure I tick when I set up the iphone or will it handle it automatically.
    Thanks
    nick

    iTunes on your computer will keep them separate. I have 2 iPhones and 1 iPod Touch all syncing to the same computer, with different playlists, apps, contact groups, etc., on each of the devices.
