Best way to have multiple arrangements in one project file?

Hello everybody,
I am trying to figure out a smart way of having multiple arrangements associated with one project. More importantly, this would allow me to have multiple arrangements associated with the same pool of audio files in one audio window -- without needing to import/export audio.
In DP this is achieved with multiple "sequences". I am aware this feature is not in Logic. However, perhaps there is a way to achieve a similar process?
I guess a not-so-elegant approach would be to simply save a new song; however, if I want to use new song audio files in the old song, i'd have to import the new song audio files to the old song. Not a big deal, I guess.
Thanks,
D
Mac OS X (10.4.5)

Thanks for responding Justin & David,
Let me to try to better explain what I am trying to achieve.
(Currently my problem is that I am thinking in the "workflow language" of DP, trying to figure out an analogous "translation" in Logic. For those familiar with DP, I am simply wanting to create a new sequence, within the same "song" file.
Let's say I create a bunch of audio tracks, and compile them into arrangement A. I would like to work on a new idea that may be part of the final piece; So, I would like to have a clean, new arrangement page where I can put some of the previous audio files generated & used in arrangement A, as well as make some new ones. I'll call this arrangement B. So, in other words, arrangement B is a fresh new arrangement page that uses audio files from arrangement A as well as new ones.
If any previous/current DP users know the best way of approximating DP's use of multiple sequences, I'd love to know what you do.
I will explain what I am able to do if I were in DP (for the sake of communicating my problem, but not intended to begin a DP vs. LP thread).
I will use Logic terminology, but DP concept:
In DP, one can have multiple Arrangement windows that share a pool of audio files from one Audio Window. This allows one to try different arrangements, without keeping track of new/old audio files; and without needing importing and exporting them between songs.
I have been reading the Project Manager section in the Logic manual. (By the way, I am not seeking a DP functionality in Logic; I am seeing how one achieves a similar workflow approach in Logic.)
I realize I cannot even explain myself well. Perhaps I should consider the concept of sub-arrangements, and master arrangement. I guess, sub-songs, and work-in-progress master song. The master songs should have all audio files, and sub-songs have whatever audio files were created while working on that particular sub-song. So, with this, whenever I want to go back to master song, I've got to import the audio files from the sub-song.
This may make sense - & may work smoothly. I've got to try it out.
(Btw, David, I captured a screen shot, but I don't know where/how to post it.)
A major thanks to all who have the patience to read so many words for a one word sentence.
Thanks,
Danny

What is the best way to have multiple devices on the same account so we can still share the same library. Right now I have 7 and I believe it's causing them to malfunction.

I have multiple devices on the same itunes library and they all starting to have the same issues. Not recognizing numbers previously stored, not sending/receiving tests. Do I need to get everyone separate itunes accounts?

What is the best way to set up itunes on our home network?
One iTunes library per person. One iTunes account per person.
If people wish to share songs, they can make copies.
When the inevitable day comes when the kids get older, you will not have to come back here and post asking how all that stuff can get separated!

The Best Way To Edit Multiple Photos On One Scan

Hi...
I would like to know what the best way to edit out photo’s from a scan that has multiple photo’s?
It seems like I must make a duplicate of the scan, in the amount of photos, on that one scan and then crop each “duplication”.
Is there some other way that is better?
Any suggestion, comments and opinions will be appreciated
Thank you in advance...

Catharsis:
If you're using Canon's Canoscan Toolbox application to scan the photos try deleting its preference file, com.canon.CanoScan Toolbox 5.0.plist, and try again.
In the CanoScan window make sure Select Source is Platen, Scan mode is Color (Mulit-scan) as seen in the screenshot below. That will crop and save each photo to its own file.

TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. Just put the application in the Dock and click on it whenever you want to backup the dB file. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
Note: There's now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.

What is the best way to manage multiple devices with one iMac - different users with seperate itunes accounts or one mac user with different itune logons and libraries?

Hello
I have just purchased an imac which I am very happy with. In our household we also have two iphones (one mine and one husbands) and one ipod (my sons). We all have individual itunes accounts set up on our previous computer (not a mac). We have sepereate apps and music, although there may be the odd occasion where we would like to share a song (if this is possible) across devices.
I am just wondering the best way to manage these devices using the new imac. Should I create individual accounts to logon to the imac, then from within these launch our own itunes accounts and sync our devices with these. Or should I be using one version of itunes, logging on to this with our different itunes usernames and storing things in libraries.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

I am presuming that we cannot share downloaded apps and music between accounts because of the copyright issue,
Though I'm no copyright lawyer, as long as it's within a household, you can share content among users. Such sharing is, absent specific language preventing it not present in the iTunes Store terms of use, generally considered to be "personal use". So you can share apps and music amongst your users on your computer and with their devices. You just can't give any of that content to friends or relatives who don't live with you.
What I am not clear on, it making sure that this appears in each itunes account - is it easy to find the file storage folders that match the itunes accounts and what would these be?
The iTunes library and files are by default in a user's Home/Music folder. But you don't have to find the folder; in fact putting a file into the folder yourself won't add the file to iTunes. Just drag the file into the iTunes window. iTunes will copy it to the correct location.

Best way to have multiple emails across multiple Macs with Mail?

So I have 2 Macs, and 3 email accounts (GMail, GoDaddy, and my university)...and I have all accounts set up on both machines, but I only receive email on one of them...if both are open, they randomly go to one, and if only one is open, it goes to the open one. How can I set it up so that all emails go to BOTH computers?
Thanks!

Scott,
Looking for some support/advice on a multiple-computers/same account issue.
One group that I do some IT for have about 12 staff members, each armed with a laptop (Mac of course). Their mail accounts are set up as POP (as recommended by our hosting company ((paetec)) due to the volume of messages). Everyone likes POP.
There are three administrative assistants at the main office who monitor/check the POP accounts for the staff who are off-site with laptops. So "joe" is checking/sending e-mail on the road from his MacBook, and his assistant is also checking/saving "Joe's" mail back at the office. The staff want it set up this way and depend on this double checking system (no sales/customer inquiry is ever missed)
Is this a recommended use of Mail.app? Anyone else use a similar set up?
So, let's say the admin staff have about 10 to 12 accounts on their iMacs, constantly fetching the same mail the POP users may or may not have read yet.
A big problem I have is a bulk of junk/spam/old messages that are piling up on the server. I don't know why their are so many (in the GBs), because I try to keep everyone's Mailbox Advanced settings the same (download to the local machine, remove from server, after so long). But it is not working.
The messages on the server pile up and I don't know why. Without having everyone's laptops in front of me, or checking all their settings through Remote Desktop, I'm not sure where the problem is?
Another problem is the occasional re-download of duplicate messages from the server to a specific POP account. What triggers Mail.app to do that? A date, a file size, a bug? That is when the tons of un-removed mail from the server really ties up/slows down the admin assistant's mail.app.
(which I thought was removed!)
Any advice/thoughts welcome.
Thanks

Can you have multiple classes in one .java file ?

or am I being dumb ;-)
I'm guessing not because the filename has to match the classname but maybe you can ... ?
C

To elaborate a bit more. The public class must match the filename, however you can declare "inner" classes.
An inner class can be declared inside another class, or even inside another method. Where you declare that class dictates the scope it will have. However, the lack of an ability to declare these classes public (a public class must be declared inside a java file with the same name), means that they are not visible anywhere else. However, they do still have plenty of uses.
Declaring a class inside a method is used rarely, but would look something like
public void foo(Bar myBar = new Bar
        private String baz = "Hello";
        public String doSomething()
             return baz;
     myBar.doSomething()
}This declares and implements the class Bar inside the method header. Sure, this is a pretty useless example, but you could put any methods or variables inside your inner class, and they would be available only during execution of that method. (ie. only have method scope).

How do I scan multiple pages into one pdf file using the PIXMA MG7520 on Windows 8.0? Please help!

I recently received a PIXMA MG7520 for a gift. It works great with my lenovo laptop/tablet running on Windos 8.0. The one drawback to the HP all-in-one that it replaced is it does not have an ADF. That being said, there must be some way to scan multiple pages into one pdf file. I need help figuring thing out. Thanks in advance!
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hi mdtolbert54,
There is a program that comes with the printer called the IJ Scan Utility that can assist you with scanning multiple pages into a single PDF document. To do this, please follow these steps:
1. On your keyboard, press the Windows key.
2. Start typing IJ SCAN UTILITY. The search window opens as you type. Once the IJ SCAN UTILITY is displayed, please select and open it.
3. In the Canon IJ Scan Utility window that opens, click SETTINGS.... in the bottom right of the window. The Settings dialog box appears.
4. Click the DOCUMENT SCAN option on the left pane of the window.
5. In the SAVE SETTINGS section of the window, you will select the save format and location of the document you are about to scan.
a.) In the FILE NAME field, specify the name you would like to give the file. By default the filename will begin with IMG; you can remove IMG and change it to whatever you would like to name the file.
b.) In the DATA FORMAT field, use the drop-down arrow to select the PDF (Multiple Pages) option.
c.) In the SAVE IN field, please navigate to the area where you would like the file to be saved once it is scanned in. By default, the file will be saved in the MY DOCUMENTS folder.
6. Once all settings have been selected, click the OK button at the bottom of the window to save the changes. The IJ Scan Utility main screen appears.
7. Click the DOCUMENT button. Scanning starts. Click the CANCEL button to cancel scanning if needed. Scanned items are saved in previously selected folder location specified in the SETTINGS... window.
If you find that you need advanced scanning options such as adjusting resolution, brightness, contrast, saturation, color balance, etc. in addition to the options selected above, please click on the SCANGEAR button on the IJ Scan Utility Main screen, then adjust the items as necessary.
Once the items above are set for document scanning, in the future, you will only need to launch the IJ Scan Utility, then press the DOCUMENT button to perform the scan (unless you want to make changes to the settings).
Hope this helps!

Multiple plant in one project

Dear PS gurus!
Want to know that can we create one project having multiple plant, if yes ? how we will do costing?How to customize?
plz let me know the concept.
Ansar

you can have multiple plants in one project
there is no customising for this - the plant would be set up as part of enterpise customising
the costing will be based on the WBS object assigned
for eg you can have a project where some work is carried out in plant A and some work in plant B - projects can be cross plant the cost will be assigned to the WBS based on the actual postings but the WBS can have different plant assignments

Best way to have only one instance of an object in web application.

Hello,
I defined a class that provides services to my web application: subscribes user, check if user already subscrubed etc. The objects don't need to save any session information. So it is like a Stateless Session Bean (from what I've read about Session beans).
The webapp is small and I don't want to use EJBs.
What would be the best way to have one instance of the above class in my webapp ?
Would making the class static be a good method ? Using a factory ?
Is there a way to put in web.xml something that asks the container to instantiate an object that is not a servlet and place it in Application scope, so that I cann retrieve it whenever required in my app ?
Other suggestions ?
Thank you,
Vlad.

Hi
The best way to have only one instance is use the singleton pattern. The idea is : the class has a private
contructor, a public static method that returns an instance of this object and a static member that is false if not any instance and true if there si an instance.
To obtain one instance you can do some like
MyObject ob=MyObject.getIntance();
this method inspect the static member and returns null if true. If false set to true and return the object
via the private constructor.

Hope this helps

Best way to manage multiple Help windows

Hi all:
I'm working with X5 to create Help for a large modular
application. I have a single Help project, but want to deliver help
content only for the specific modules used by clients. I'm
attemtping to create multiple Help windows with a Main window
containing Help for standard deliverables and other windows
containing Help for specific modules. What's the best way to
achieve this using a single project. Or do I have to maintain
multiple projects?
I tried using customized windows but there are some
limitations. I manually created a new hhc file for a custom window
and it's working fine. But, I cannot open the custom window by
clicking a book in the TOC (which is what I want) of the main
window but can do so by clicking a topic. Also, I cannot assign
separate default topics for each custom window. Further, when I
click a hyperlink in a custom window that links to a topic in the
main window, the topic from the main window displays in the custom
window but it's not listed in the TOC of the custom window, so
that's awkward.
Please help!!!
Romeo Coutinho

From the user's point of view a merged set of help files is
probably the best solution. Using global windows the whole help
system is displayed in one window and shows only topics for the
modules installed (if you can get your setup people to comply with
your wishes that is ;-) ).
Handling multiple projects is not more complicated than
handling a big one. Each help topic only exits in one project; if
you want to create or update the help for module XYZ_1, you open
project XYZ_1. If you want to edit a topic in the project Master,
you open project Master. After editing a project you compile just
this module and nothing else.
The only thing you have to learn are the peculiarities of the
help compiler regarding merged projects. Refer to
http://www.helpware.net/htmlhelp/how_to_merge.htm
for a good description of these kinks.

Best Way to port the data from one DB to another DB using Biztalk

Hi,
please suggest best way to move the data from one db to another DB using biztalk.
Currently I am doing like that, for each transaction(getting from different source tables) through receive port, and do some mapping (some custom logic for data mapping), then insert to target normalized tables(multiple tables) and back to update the status
of transaction in source table in sourceDB. It is processing one by one.
How/best we we can do it using bulk transfer and update the status. Since it has more than 10000 transaction per call.
Thanks,
Vinoth

Hi Vinoth,
For SQL Bulk inserts you can always use SQL Bulk Load
adapter.
http://www.biztalkgurus.com/biztalk_server/biztalk_blogs/b/biztalksyn/archive/2005/10/23/processing-a-large-flat-file-message-with-biztalk-and-the-sqlbulkinsert-adapter.aspx
However, even though a SQL Bulk Load adapter can efficiently insert a large amount of data into SQL you are still stuck with the issues of transmitting the
MessageBox database and the memory issues of dealing with really large messages.
I would personally suggest you to use SSIS, as you have mentioned that records have to be processed in specific time of day as opposed to when the
records are available.
Please refer to this link to get more information about SSIS: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms141026.aspx
If you have any more questions related to SSIS, please ask it in

What is the best way to manage multiple ipods using the same itunes?

Hi Everyone
i am trying to manage three different ipods through the one Itunes, all with very different tastes, not sure if I am doing it the best or easiest way so does anybody have a simple solution on what you're supposed to do, to keep it all simple!
Cheers
Liv

If you have created a new Windows user account you need to log out and then log back in with your original user name. By default each Windows profile will have an independent iTunes library.
If instead you managed to create a new library within the same profile. click the icon to start iTunes and immediately press and hold down the shift key, keep holding until asked to create or choose a library. Click Choose and navigte back to your original which should be at <User's Music>\iTunes.
Your question as posed was:
What is the best way to manage multiple iPods using the same iTunes {library}?
in which case Selected Playlists is probably the best approach. Simply create a playlist for each device, Alice's iPod, Bob's iPhone etc. and sync the device with the appropriate list.

Best Way to Aggregate Multiple Announcement Apps and Possibly External RSS Feed

Hello,
I have two separate announcement apps (one in sub-site A, and one is sub-site B). I am trying to create a webpart that will display content from both apps together.
I have tried to setup a CSWP and have been able to set the query to pull in the data (Although it shows expired announcements, which I would need to eliminate). Now, I am trying to customize the display of the CSWP, including the property mapping values
to display the announcement title (currently working with the URL as a link) and body (truncated like the announcement summary view if possible).
How can I get the body from the announcement to display? The 'body' field isn't listed as an option in the drop down list of mapping values. Do I need to toggle an option on the separate announcement apps, create a column, map a field, or some combination?
Also, I'd like to know if it is possible to add in an external RSS feed. Or, if there is a completely different way to approach and accomplish this, please let me know.
Thank you

Best way to achieve multiple paths with quizzes using Captivate 6?

I’m looking for the best way to achieve multiple paths and quizzes using Captivate 6.
Here is the scenario: The learner watches general slides 1 – 3 and then chooses between Path A, Path B, or both paths combined. If they choose Path A then they watch the A portion only and take the A Quiz only. Same happens for Path B and for the two paths combined. The learner would only have to go one path to complete the course.
What I’m finding is Captivate only has one Quiz results page (even if you create two separate quizzes, it merges them). I was trying to avoid having three separate projects for the same module to keep it simple. I see if I have three separate projects I could use the Multi-SCO Packager to merge them for use on my Moodle LMS. But wait, I don't have the elearning suite, so I don't have access to the Multi-SCO Packager...
My question is: What is the best approach way to accomplish this goal? Any recommendations?
Message was edited by: austingina

Captivate 6 has Branch Aware quizzing. Turn on that option in Quiz Settings and then your Quiz Results page should only show results for the branch your user visits.

Best Ways to Handle Multiple Users

First post....heres my question. Can anyone help me determine the best way to handle multiple users in itunes? Some Background:
My family shares one computer. We have on folder on the hard drive where we keep all our music files. I got an ipod and itunes and added some of the music to itunes and have pretty much used itunes for my music.
Now my girlfriend got an ipod and I am hoping to somehow keep her music away from mine so to speak. So that I can keep synching my ipod without adding a bunch of music I dont want.
Is there a way to handle this? So thankfull for any help!

There is an apple article on this here:

It sounds as though method 1 would be best for you.
