Best way to set up 2 color job in Framemaker 10

What is the best way to set up a 2 color job in Framemaker 10 so that it converts to a 2 color job in the PDF? We have black with a blue PMS 280U book. However, if I select PMS 289U as my 2nd color in FM it outputs to PDF as the various CMYK percentages. How do I get the PDF to be black plus one color? Thanks for the help.

You have to be patched to the 10.0.2 version of FM and you must use the CMYK option with SaveAsPDF. If thee colour is defined as Spot in the FM file, it should remain as a spot colour in th PDF. However, that being said, the CMYK route is still a bit wonky (even in FM12) and you may get odd results in your PDF.
Alternatives are to make the fix in Acrobat with the Print Production tools (or even better to use a third-party tool like Enfocus Pro) or to use GrafikHuset's (now freebie) PubliPDF to convert FM's RGB postscript output to CMYK+Spot PDFs.

Best Way to Setup Document for Colored Paper Job

Hi, we're running a business card job that will print on a red-colored paper (well, white & red duplexed for a white front & red back).
Curious to know the best way to set this up for both soft-proofing here, and to send the most appropriate files to the printer. We'll separate out the backs of the cards that print on red into their own document (since the fronts will run on white).
On these backs, there will be a background image that is a colored grayscale image with the foreground being a darker PMS red than the paper color (for a bit of a tone-on-tone effect). And the type will be engraved with opaque white.
- Should I change the 'Paper' color to a CMYK simulation of the paper color?
- Or is it better to setup a 'background layer' set to not print and filled with the red paper color?
- How exactly should I setup the opaque white for the type? I think if I left Paper as white, applying the Paper or default white swatch would not set the type to print using a spot color, it would just knock it out, correct?
THANKS! Don't do this too often.

Ultimately for print production you will need the opaque white as a spot color, so create a spot swatch 0C, 0M, 0Y, 0K. As for the background image that you are printing on red stock, I would create a layer for the red stock, set the image on another layer that has a multiply effect, and this could be used for the proof. The print file, you would not need the layer for the red stock, and you wouldn't need the image to multiply either.
Why not just print a solid red with reverse type, instead of an opaque white on colored stock?

Best way to set up a second monitor with a Touchsmart

What's the best way to set up a second monitor for the Touchsmart IQ506? Is a USB to VGA cable the only way and how well does that work (I've read that they can be buggy)?
Are they any recommendations for products and setting it up?

Leopard wont be out befor the second half of this year, sofar i cannot tell you what options you are going to have with the new system. Seems like with time machine is going to be a perfect backup for your whole system.
10.4.x:
Software RAID you can do 0 -1:
To setup a RAID of your system you have to format the drive and setup the RAID type you want from the disk utility.
To have some security i suggest the "mirror" options but you are going to lose some perfomance, depending you want is your main job it mighn't be noticed.
RAID 5:
This would be the nicest option but you need to buy an additional RAID controller. This is mostly used on servers and not on client computers.

Best way to set up a new system with RAID?

I'll be buying a new Intel Mac Pro when Leopard comes out (for my office). I can get it with as many drives as fits into the bays (4?). My question is, what's the best way to set up a disk redundancy? I'm assuming I want one of the drives for Time Machine. That leaves 3; what kind of RAID do I want to maximize safety if and when one of the drives dies? I'd also like to optimize disk access time, as a secondary consideration. So, 1) what RAID do I want and how many drives will that take, and 2) how do I set it up? Presumably the thing will arrive all set up with Leopard installed. So, will I have to hose that installation to change the file system to RAID? Any problem with that (is it worth it)? If so, what disk do I boot from to set that up, and what's the right way to do this and get a working system back?

What is the best way to set up iTunes on our home network so all family members have access to all of our itunes library, even music we don't have on the cloud?

I have five different people using 10 different apple devices on one itunes account in our family. We have had trouble sharing. What is the best way to set up itunes on our home network? We have purchased music that sits on icloud, but we also have music we have imported from our previous cd library. Our itunes program keeps crashing and dumping everyone's playlists. So far we have all been using just the one desktop computer to sync to because we can't figure out how to share the same librarly and playlists on multiple computers in our home so devices can be synced at any location as well as playlists and purchases be made.

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!

What Is The Best Way To Set Up Kids iTouch To My iTunes?

I have an iTouch set up with my iTunes music, movies and apps, but now I gave my kids each an iTouch.
What is the best way to set up there account, should it be a unique account for each of them or should I put them under my account?
They will be using my same iMac when they sync or update there iTouch, so will they need to log in under their name every time?
Not sure what is the best way to set this up, they are both minors, i.e. no credit card.
Thanks

Better just your account for multiple devices. The only drawback is that the music will have to managed manually.
Connect one of the iPods to your computer then launch iTunes. You should see the iPod under Devices on the left side of the iTunes window. Double click then you can name each iPod to keep them separate but only syncs to your iTunes account.
Without knowing your Apple ID user name and password they would not be able to make purchases ergo no downloads you aren't aware of.
How to use multiple iPods, iPads, or iPhones with one computer
The kids are minors.. if they are under 13 years of age, according to Apple, they can't have their own accounts regardless.

What is the best way of setting up Family Sharing?

I just bought my son an iPad Mini and I am trying to decide on what is the best way of setting it up for him. The one thing I do know is that I do NOT want all the content that is my iPhone 6 to pop up on his iPad Mini. I want his iPad to be used for his games and educational stuff and his own music. I don't mind setting up a family photo album and share photos with the family. So is the Family Sharing option the best way of doing this based on what I just mentioned? Do I set him up with his own Apple ID? If so will everything still be based off my account so he won't have to create his own iTunes Library?
I always use iTunes gift cards to purchase music and content. Will I be able to continue to use them even if I want to put some new content on his iPad and not my iPhone? Do I enter in his Apple ID info. Can you restrict certain family members to just certain things for example you only want to share photos with one person whereas you might want to share your music with another family member?
Any suggestions on the best way of setting this up would great!
Thanks!

Hi DVX100Shooter,
Congratulations on getting your son a new iPad, I am sure he will enjoy it.
Family Sharing is one way of managing both purchases and content between members of a related group of people. Each member must have their own Apple ID. You can choose what music you wish to share with the family from your own account. See this article -
OS X Yosemite: Share purchases with your family
In particular the section titled Hide a purchase from other family members
The music library on your son's iPad is separate from yours, but under Family Sharing you agree to pay for all purchases made through the iTunes store. If you wish to control what is purchased you can set up the Ask to Buy option for any family member under adult age in your location. See this article for details -
Request and make purchases with Ask to Buy - Apple Support
Gift cards may not be used for billing of purchases under family sharing, with the exception that a family member may use gift cards to purchase their own content. See this article for information about Family Sharing billing policies -
Family purchases and payments - Apple Support
The shared family photo album is available to all family members.

Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Best,

Just use the same one on all devices.

What is the best way to set up iTunes to deal with a massive media library?

I have a really big media library...probably 7k-10k digital photos, close to 1,000 ripped CDs, and over 600 ripped DVDs, all stored on 1.5TB external hard disks in a 4-drive enclosure.
Due to a recent technical glitch, I find myself installing a new drive and moving the current library. My question is, what is the best way to set up iTunes' settings to deal with a media library that is both external to the Mac on which it runs, and spans multiple physical hard disk units?
I generally like the idea of iTunes organizing my library for me (i.e. keeping everything in Media Type>Artist>Album folders via the "Automatically Add to iTunes" folder), but I'm not sure how that's going to work spanning multiple drives.
I just figure since I'm basically starting over with my iTunes installation, maybe there's a better way to do it.
Thanks in advance for any advice you can offer.

You can set them up as a software RAID using Disk Utility.
It'll simply be one large disk for all intents and purposes.

What's the best way to set up new imac for logic etc?

In brief:
Getting new imac (27", 3.4 i7, 8-16GB ram, 1TB HD). Will be using it mainly to run Logic Studio (loads of plugins) and Final Cut Express. I also have 2 external Hard drives one 500G one 1TB.
The last imac I bought was my first and just went ahead and threw everything at it not really knowing where things should go. This time I want to set things up correctly.
Basically, with what I've got, what is the best way to set things up. I.e where do I put logic files, samples, BFD2, Amplitube etc. Where do I put videos for use in FCE. Storing projects and backups for use with Time Machine.
Also noticed the new imac will only have 1 firewire port. I will need to plug in the Hard drives (daisy chained), camera and RME Fireface 800. Was thinking of getting a Thunderbolt Hard drive but they are expensive and hard to find.
Would really appreciate any help before I get the new machine and start messing things up again.
Thanks.

Adding to babowa, enable the system firewall in System Preferences>Security>Firewall tab. Click Advanced and check Stealth Mode.
Lion is a pretty steady and secure operating system, and as there really aren't MANY Mac viruses, there ARE viruses out there still. OS X is pretty good about letting you know if you do accidently download a virus, and it will help you throw it away if it detects one, such as the MACDefender virus. OS X has built in security features such as sandboxing that doesn't allow viruses in as easily as a Windows PC. As for hackers, as long as you have the firewall enabled and a secure password (for your computer and email accounts), then you should be fine.
It's the user that lets the virus in, not the computer (unless there's some untold serious vulnerability in OS X, which is highly unlikely). Keep your apps up to date, don't download pirated software, and be street smart on the internet. Don't download things or visit websites that you don't think are real. Safari includes a Phishing feature that automatically detects known phishing sites, protecting you from that big problem. Keep your passwords secure and you should be fine.
There are antivirus solutions out there, one notable one available in the AppStore is Intego's VirusBarrier (free and plus versions), if you feel you still need one.
I wouldn't worry about it. Windows users who switch to Mac are always asking these questions.
Here's some good reading as well

What is the best way to set up multiple Apple devices ?

Lime many of us here I have quite a few apple devices and I just wondered whet the best way to set them up with itunes / Apple
my Apple gear:
Mac mini 2.53 with Mountain Lion
Mac Mini 1.6 duo Snow Leopard
Iphone 5c (mine) running 8
Iphone 5c (wifes) running 8
iPad 2 (old) 64 GB running 8
iPad Mini 2 retina 32 GB running 7
g3 iMac (running Tiger) Juke box (semi retired ;-) now)
At the moment all devices (apart from new Mac mini 2 and the old G3) are set up under my Apple ID ... (1 Apple ID for all devices) ... obviously this has problems : my wife downloads an App it will appear on my phone; we have had to disable some of the messaging systems as at one point my wife was getting my messages et ... is there a better way to do this?

cosmiconion wrote:
one drawback of same Apple ID for store is that what she downloads will automatically appear on all devices
Do you mean the visibility of the purchase in the App Store (under purchases) or the installation of the app automatically on the other devices?
In the App Store on the device (under iOS 8 at least on the iPad, I couldn't get it to work on my iPhone 5 under iOS 8), you can hide purchases...just swipe it to the left in the Purchased list. You can then unhide the hidden purchase(s) if desired by using iTunes on the PC/Mac under your iTunes account.
Auto App updates (Automatic Downloads) can be controlled under: Settings/iTunes & App Store, scroll down to Automatic Downloads and disable those that you do not want.

HT2534 I have two class sets of iPad 2s and I would like to set up an iTunes account but don't want to put in my credit card information or individual students' information. What is the best way to set up class sets of iPads?

I am a K-6 tech teacher and just recieved two classroom sets of iPads. I'm wondering what is the best way to set up iTunes so that apps may be downloaded. I do not want to put my personal information in and I do not want students to put in their informtion either. Teachers want to be able to download free apps and when the school purchases iTunes gift cards, they would like to be able to use them. What is the best way to go about this?
Thank You!
Jess

Contact your IT person. They will help you with provisioning & setting up the iPads and getting apps on them and locking them down so students can only access certain settings and apps.
I have asked that this post get moved to iPad Enterprise as it is more approriate forum for your question (even though it is about schools))
Don't create an AppleID yourself and use it to put stuff onto the school iPads. You can't have more than 10 iPads to one iTunes account anyway.

Best way to set up iPad mini for child?

So I bought my 3yr old an iPad Mini since he already knows how to fully operate most things on my iPhone! Now when I go to set it up, I don't want my music and apps and other content popping up on his iPad. Now can I create an Apple ID for him but set it up to where I can still have control over it? The guy in the store suggested I set it up using iCloud Family Sharing. When I got home and looked more into the family sharing option, I am not sure that is what I want either. That sounds like everybody in your family would have access to everything on the main device correct or am I wrong?
So this is what I want. I want to be the one who can purchase apps or download free apps by typing in his Apple ID info (if possible). I want him to have his own favorite songs via iTunes. The only thing I would want to share is probably a Family photo album in iCloud.
So what is the best way of setting this device up?
Before he mentioned the iCloud Family Sharing option, the guy in the store suggested I leave the iCloud info blank when it asked for it but set up the iPad Mini as if it was my device. I think that just confused me even more.
If I chose the Family Sharing option, can I select exactly what gets shared or no? If yes? Can apps be shared?
Lastly if I set him up with his own Apple ID, and he wants a new song or some music or download a movie etc. will he need his own iTunes Library?
Thanks for your help!

I think that, if you read through these forums and familiarize yourself with the number of problems allowing children the ability to exercise and maintain control of an iDevice, and to purchase and download content, you'll change your mind.

Best way to set up partitions on 250GB external drive

Hi all,
I've decided to go with an Iomega eGo 250-GB FireWire portable drive to back up my iBook's hard disk (30 GB) plus to store my photos and maybe hold a bootable copy of OS9.
This is my first time using an external drive, so I don't really know how to go about setting things up.
What would be the best way to set up the partitions on the external drive?
1) I know I should create a 30GB partition for the iBook backup, but what about for the remaining volume? Is it best to leave it as a single large 200GB partition, or split it into two 100GB chunks? Other than the clone of my iBook, I'll mainly be storing photos (at the moment no more than around 10-12GB).
2) I don't yet have a huge iTunes collection, but if I later want to store iTunes music that doesn't fit on my internal drive, is it fine to put it in the same partition as the photos, or would it be preferable to create a separate partition?
3) If I want to install OS9 on the drive, how much space should I allot to it? Would this enable me to run legacy apps on my iBook?
4) Does it matter how I name the partitions (i.e. should the name for my iBook back-up be the same as the original volume or should it be different?)
5) As I still don't know exactly what I need, If today I decide to create only 30GB partition to backup the iBook, can I later partition the remaining space without having to start all over again?
6) Also, the drive came out of the box with Mac OS Extended format. Is this the best format or is there another that would be better?
Thanks for any advice

The answer to both question is that it's completely up to you. Partitioning or not partitioning won't affect operation significantly.
3) If I want to install OS9 on the drive, how much space should I allot to it? Would this enable me to run legacy apps on my iBook?
The iBook G4 can not boot from OS 9 so you would only be able to run OS 9 in the "classic" environment.
4) Does it matter how I name the partitions (i.e. should the name for my iBook back-up be the same as the original volume or should it be different?)
No
5) As I still don't know exactly what I need, If today I decide to create only 30GB partition to backup the iBook, can I later partition the remaining space without having to start all over again?
There are a few tools which promise the ability to change the partitioning without destroying the data on the drive. But you should never do this without making a backup of the data on the drive. Data loss can easily happen and in a big way.
6) Also, the drive came out of the box with Mac OS Extended format. Is this the best format or is there another that would be better?
That is the best format.
