Bold & Macs: I'm thoroughly confused!

Hoping someone might be able to help.
I upgraded to Blackberry Bold (aren't they beautiful?!) and I have a macbook (Tiger). I have spent hours trying to understand all of the problems, issues and advice being provided on this and other forums regarding the syncing (etc) of these two apps.
Before I install ANYTHING or set up my emails/contacts/calendar/notes (just had a corrupted hard drive issue so am basically starting from scratch) I wondered whether someone could confirm the following understanding for me (gleaned from many different sources)...??
(1) I can use Missing Sync to connect & sync with Apple's iCal and Address Book?
(2) No need to even look or do anything with iSync or other Apple Syncing Services?
(3) I have to use Entourage (rather than Apple Mail which I'd prefer frankly) if I want to sync e-mails with BBB?
(4) PocketMac does not currently support Bold/Mac and I should stay away from that software until their syncing issues are fixed?
(5) I will wait until January 2009 for seamless syncing with a dedicated desktop for Bolds & Macs?
This would all mean I would end up using: Entourage (bleh), iCal and Address Book (and Mark/Space Notes thingummy too) and sync using Missing Sync with no problems...? Is that right? Or have I misinterpreted some of the advice??
Thanking in advance for clearing up the confusion...

(oh, and quite separately I need to figure out how to get the very little data I have left after my collapsed hard drive off my Palm Treo (680) and into the various Apple apps and then onto my Blackberry - a fun few days ahead of me I think...!!)

Bad news first and we hope for good news as well
The device is in Recovery Mode and the data has already been deleted, you need to restore the device with iTunes in order to get the iPhone back into a working state
When the iPhone is restored you can then restore it from your latest backup using iTunes or iCloud and regain some, if not all, of your data.
The good news part only happens if you had a backup.

I was trying to sync my iPhone 3GS and it is now stuck, saying I'm in recovery mode. I am thoroughly confused now after researching online. I'm scared to restore to original settings as I don't want to lose everything, apps, contacts, etc. Help!

I want to buy a mac and i am confused between macbook air 13 inch and i mac. which one should i buy

actually i am new to mac so i am confused between macbook air 13 inch and i mac. which one should i buy? i will be installing windows 2 on it..

An MBA is a portable while an iMac is a desktop and is not portable. You could install Windows on either provided each had sufficient memory installed and a large enough hard drive. The iMac is better equipped for this from the outset, but the MBA can be adequately configured if you are willing to spend the money to do so.

Thoroughly Confused

Here's the deal. I'm going on the trip of a lifetime to Italy next month and I want to get the best video quality possible from my Canon HF100 and either iMovie 08 or FCE 4.0.1. I've read through these forums as well as forums dealing with my model camcorder and now of course I am utterly confused. The number of frame rate options on my camcorder as well as importing and exporting options on my Mac are overwhelming, and I consider myself to be fairly knowledgeable about AV stuff on the Mac and PC.
I'm looking for direction in two areas I guess. One is what modes/frame rates work best with iMovie 08 and FCE, and once my footage is on my mac what app/export option will yield the best results, and stay as close as possible to the quality of the source material?
The Canon HF100 has options for 24p which they recommend using in tandem with Cinema Mode, but it doesn't say what Cinema Mode does. It also has 60i and 30p. I've heard all kinds of conflicting info about how these frame rates work in my two apps, so many that I'm not even going to start to get into them all. Does iMovie 08 or FCE read all these frame rates? Does it recognize them and then convert them to something else? Which ones work best in the two apps?
As far as exporting goes, do I even know where to start? This is one area where I believe even Apple could not truly simplify things. I eventually want to watch what I shoot on my HDTV of course either streaming it over the network to my XBOX 360 using Connect 360 or burn it on a DVD which I really don't want to because of it's a physical media and It's going to be downgraded to MPEG2. In the past I've used the Apple TV preset in iMovie 08 to stream standard def stuff to my 360 without any issues. That will lower the resolution on the HD video I shoot so thats not the most appealing option. Anyone have any idea of what might be a good export option to accomplish this?
Also depending on what frame rate I shoot in do I need to pay attention to what export option I use as they also have options for frame rates and resolutions?
Can anyone help bring a little clarity to my situation?
Thank You
Joshua

Joshua,
From Canon USA's website pages about the HF100: http://www.usa.canon.com/consumer/controller?act=ModelInfoAct&fcategoryid=177&mo delid=16187#ModelFeaturesAct
"..24p Cinema Mode enables all aspiring moviemakers to achieve a professional "film-look." You can change the camcorder's frame capture rate to 24p (recorded at 60i), which provides the appearance of the same frame rate as movie film.." (..My italics..)
I'm not going to respond to Steve, but I'll try to explain this, and to answer your question.
The camera can record single, complete frames of video. These frames are normally - or until recently have been generally - composed of two separate "fields" of information, each comprising half the total number of lines down a video, or TV, screen. One field has odd-numbered lines, the other consists of even-numbered lines. When these two fields are shown rapidly one after the other as 60 "interlaced" fields per second, the fields blend into each other, and the effect is of 30 complete frames of video per second.
The HF100 appears to record not separate half-a-full-frame-of-information fields, but complete, whole frames of info (..known as 'progressive' frames; progressing all the way down the screen, as lines 1,2,3,4,5,6 etc, instead of 1,3,5,7,9 followed by 2,4,6,8,10, etc..)
But note that Canon's own description says that you can "..change the camcorder's frame capture rate to 24p (recorded at 60i).." which means that the 24 genuine full frames of info are then separated, split or duplicated so that 60 separate fields are produced from those full frames, to allow the video to be recorded - and replayed - in the normal 60-interlaced-fields-per second manner.
Now, 24 doesn't divide exactly into 60. There are 60 fields to provide every second (..they could be identical fields; they don't necessarily need to be different from each other..) but to divide up 24 frames into 60 pieces means that each of those 60 fields may contain 0.4 of a original frame. Just using simple mathematics: 24/60=0.4.
The frames may be assigned differently, as it's unlikely that any field will be assigned 0.4 (two fifths) of a frame. Let's say that every two of the 60 fields-each-second are the same. That gives us 30 full and complete frames to be manufactured out of the original 24. That would mean that each of the 30 frames per second is composed of 1.25 of the original 24fps frames. Now, one-and-a-quarter of the original 24 squeezed into each of the recorded-to-chip 30 frames would still not really be feasible. So there must be a method to -d-i-s-t-r-i-b-u-t-e- those 24 frames more-or-less equally between the final 30 per second frames (..or 60 interleaved fields per second..) which the camcorder records onto a chip.
The way that it's usually done is - as Adam Wilt described - chopping things up so that half-frames, i.e; "fields" of video, get distributed between the resultant 30 frames ..or 60 fields.. per second - some of which may be identical to each other, and others not.
Here's how he describes it, starting at 24p Standard about a fifth of the way down the page: it's "..the same 2:3 or 3:2 pulldown cadence long used to transfer 24fps film to NTSC video. The first 24p frame is written to two fields of 60i video, the next is written to three, the next to two, and the next to three again, as shown in the graphic."
So the various chopped-up portions of the original 24-distinct-and-complete-frames-captured-each-second are "farmed out" between the resultant recorded-to-chip 30 frames per second ..which Canon acknowledges are actually recorded onto the chip as being "..recorded at 60i.."
"24p Cinema Mode" (sic), as Canon describes it, above, is a mixture of shooting at 24 frames-per-second (though it appears to be then chopped-up and redistributed as 60 interlaced fields per second, like normal video, but jerkier) to look like the 'jerky' motion of film, with optional adjustments as well to the comparative brightness of regions of the picture, to make the video look more like the 'linear' (constant) brightness changes which film records. (Video is usually made brighter in 'mid-white' or mid brightness regions of the picture, because cathode ray tube picture screens traditionally didn't cope with brightness the same way in mid-tones as in dark or very bright regions.) ..That's the "gamma" which Steve referred to.
On the "Auto/Manual Controls" page http://www.camcorderinfo.com/content/Canon-Vixia-HF100-Camcorder-Review-35094/Au to--Manual-Controls.htm of that Camcorderinfo review which I mentioned, their description of "Cine Mode" explains that: "..Cine Mode is an alternate gamma mode for how the camcorder processes colors, meant to make the HF100 match something closer to Canon's professional line rather than the oversaturated colors standard on most consumer camcorders. When active, the highlights and shadows are compressed and the midtones are expanded. Cine mode presumes, to some extent, that you've properly lit your scene. This is not the best run-and-gun setting, as you'll lose more details in the shadows and highlights. However, if the lighting is good, the image tends to have great looking colors.."
So, I repeat what I explained earlier, in answer to your previous question; ".."..it doesn't say what Cinema Mode does.." It takes half of one frame, adds it to another frame, and tries to produce the effect of genuine cinema film. It just produces jerky video. Don't bother with it. Don't waste this "trip of a lifetime" by shooting unsatisfactory, jerky "pretend film".
Now if you want your video to be "Fellini-esque" - as you're going to Italy - and want it to look like films made in Italy (..instead of looking like normal video..) you could use "24p Cinema Mode" - as Canon describes it - and switch to shooting at 24p, and adjust your "gamma" (the relative brightness of mid-tones) so that your "trip of a lifetime" looks like "Juliet of the Spirits" (..though that's rather super-bright!..) or Ginger and Fred ..but if you DO want to make your video look more like film, then - as I suggested - "..practise with the camera before you go, so that you know everything about how to use it before you even get there.."
I don't recommend Canon's "24p Cinema Mode", though, as things will look rather jerkier than normal. (..Shooting at 24p frame rate is often - mistakenly, in my view - thought to make a video look like a film, but the rate at which films are shown on cinema screens is actually two brief views of each of those 24 frames each second ..so you actually see 48 images per second, each image being shown twice ..and so the effect is rather different from simply seeing 24 images per second, which would flicker terribly. The 60i, or 30fps, manner in which those 24 frames per second are shown on a video screen differs markedly different from the 48 images-per-second which you see in a cinema or theatre. The so-called "film look" which video shooters strive for involves a different "depth of field" (amount of the shot that's in focus) when shot with a video camera, than the depth of field which a larger-frame film camera provides, too. So it's really very simplistic to think that shooting in "24p Cinema Mode" will provide a movie which really does look genuinely like a film!..)
Anyway, as I don't want to get into a discussion with Steve, I won't post any more comments or advice in this thread, because I think that his and my temperaments don't match, and I just don't enjoy the harangue.
Enjoy your trip to Italy, and I hope that you get lots of great footage!

Help erasing I Mac needed- OS lion confused!

Hi
I need to wipe the hard rive on my iMac and essentially restore it to factory settings as I am selling it and I am a bit confused about OS lion and what to do!
It's a 2008 IMac, we have an Snow leopard disc and have obviously bought Lion and downloaded it at some point. I have read instructions online and can't work out which ones to follow, Some say you can't reinstall lion if you do this and need to buy a new download? Is this the case? Others seem to say its ok but maybe this is a later mac version, then there was another method using a recovery disc (although this might not be suitable for this purpose)!
Have basically confused myself!
the computer is going to my cousins for their A-Levels, so I guess it's not as vital we completely wipe it as if it was going to a stranger however they will obviously want to put there apple accounts on it and don't want to have any of our old stuff.
If someone could point me in the right direction that would be great
Many thanks
A

You need to restore to the OS that was installed on the system when you bought it (plus and free updates) or to the last OS you bought on DVD's.
So if the system came with Leopard and you upgraded to Snow Leopard you would install Snow Leopard.
But if the system came with Snow Leopard and you bought Lion and/or Mountain Lion you would have to install Snow Leopard and sell it that way. The new owner would be responsible to put the newer OS on the system.
If the System came wilt Lion and you upgraded to Mountain Lion you would have to put Lion on it, the new user would be responsible for buying Mountain Lion.
Hope this clears up the confusion.

How do i sync pages from iMac to iPad. I am new to mac and this is confusing

how do I sync between IMAC and IPAD. I just downloaded pages into my IMAC and I can not figure out how to download it onto my ipad2. I do not want to download the product again for $10. i was told that this is handled in itunes but i can not figure it out

You got some bad information if you think that you do not have to buy Pages for the iPad and you think that it will work without it.
You have to purchase Pages for the iPad as well as for the Mac. You cannot install any computer program on an iPad - Mac or Windows applications will not work on the iPad. You will have to download and install the iPad Pages app or you cant sync files from the Mac to the iPad and the other way around.

I am trying to upgrade my iPhoto 09 version 8.1.2 to iPhoto 11 on my mac but i am confused

I currently have iPhoto '09 version 8.1.2 which was installed on my Macbook when I bought it. I have recently upgraded to OX Lion & want to upgrade to iPhoto '11 so I can use iCloud between my mac & iPhone but every time I click on the App in the App Store it keeps giving me a warning message: "iPhoto 8.1.2 is already installed and was not purchased from the Mac App Store - Do you want to buy iPhoto 9.2.3?"
I am worried that if I select BUY it will delete my current iPhoto programme & I will lose everything?
can anybody tell me what to do?

IPad Mini to Mac Facetime. So confused.

So, my wife has a Macbook, and I have an iPad mini. We both share a an Apple ID. Whenever one tries to FaceTime the other, it comes up as unavailable. I already changed the email on the mini, but not the ID, as it says in another post, but that didn't work at all. No matter what I do, it will not connect. I am thinking perhaps someone else may know the answer, before I accidentally throw this thing through the wall in frustration, lol. Please help!

If you are looking to set up local syncing (via USB or WiFi) from your iPad Mini to your Mac, you may want to take a look at these articles:

Runs Tiger and has Mac Box Set. Confused?

Hi all!
I've have just got a copy of Mac Box Set as I want Snow Leopard and the new iLife and all that jazz! I have a MacBook that is running Tiger 10.4.11 at the minute. I'm not the most technical person in the world so can I just put the Snow Leopard DVD in and just install it? I wasn't too sure!
Any help or advice would be great.
Cheers
Righini

I assume you mean install SL without updating iLife and iWork? If so, then Yes.
I'm not sure what versions of iLife and iWork still function under Snow Leopard, so you may or may not run into a problem there.
[This site|http://snowleopard.wikidot.com/start] has compatibility info for iLife apps. They are listed under Apple, not iXXX.

Thoroughly confused about supported resolutions using MDP to VGA adapter

I've read many posts on the topic and I still have no idea what is correct. Some people claim the max res for this adapter is 1600x1200 while others claim they are getting 1920x1200 with it. I have a 24" HP LCD that has VGA and HDMI as the input choices. HDMI limits the res to 1920x1080. Will this adapter run the HP @ 1920x1200 (native resolution) or will it limit it to 1600x1200 ? BTW this is being used on a late 2008 unibody MacBook. Thanks

Problem solved. I picked up the MDP to VGA adapter and was able to use the monitors native res of 1920x1200 but the flicker and wavyness made it impossible to use. And yes the adapter had the current firmware. But what I discovered in the process was that in mirror mode I am unable to drive the monitor at optimum resolution. With that in mind I tried the MDP to HDMI adapter again, unchecking mirror mode, moving the Finder bar to the external display and SHAZAM. I have a rock solid display external display now running at 1920x1200 : )

Thoroughly Confused with ADSM created access-lists when viewing ASA config

Background:
I am trying to unravel a ASA 5550 config that has been created over several years, by multiple people, some who used ADSM, some who used CLI.
None of them ever removed any lines from the configuration, and none did any documentation.
I have several basic questions, which show my ignorance.
When examining the actual configuration from a CLI perspective:
1. Does an ADSM-created access list end with any specific ADSM-added suffix?
2. When ANY access list is created in an ASA 5550, does it HAVE to be included in the access-group command to be functional? Can it also be functional if referenced in a "nat" command?
3. If the access list does meet either of the criteria specified in question #2, is it completely non-functional?
4. If an access list is applied to a logical or physical port that is shut down, is the access list functional?

Actually, I don't think I ever made myself clear.
I am working with a hard copy of the CLI.
I have no acccess to the devices to run any commands, nor access to the ADSM.
I have to get someone with access to the devices to get the CLI based config, or run any show commands for me.
As stated before, it has been built and rebuilt by different people, some using CLI, some using ADSM, but no one ever cleaned up code or documented.
I have probably 10-15 different access lists in this config.
Some look to be affiliated with specific ports. Some of these ports are up, some down.
I have the same rule sets appearing in 3 separate access lists, in some cases.
Of course, each of these 3 access lists is slightly different.
Here is the worst example I have to deal with, and hence why I need to know if an access-list can be active WITHOUT being defined in the access-group command AND AT THE SAME time NOT affiliated with a port.
An example:
3 access lists:
Prmary_Public_access_in
Primary_Public_access_in_tmp
Arin_Primary_Public_access_in
Primary_Public_access_in_tmp is associated with the Primary_Public interface, since it is defined in an access-group command.
Arin_Public_Primary_access_in is associated with a logical port that is shutdown.
Primary_Public_access_in does not appear to be directly associated with any one port
So are Arin_Public_Primary_access_in and Primary_Public_access_in access lists that being referenced to manage traffic?

Sharing one iTunes library across multiple accounts on the same Mac

Hello, I've poked around at some of the posts dealing with sharing one iTunes music library across multiple accounts on the same Mac but it seems like this can only be done if the libary is moved to a shared folder. I realize this can be done but I was trying to share it the way it is described in a post on Apple support (See link below.). That post seemed to imply that you don't have to move the library from its original location (owned by account A, e.g.), rather just make a couple preference changes in the accounts, use fast user switching and voila. That doesn't seem to work. So my question is this: Is the only way to share one iTunes music library across multiple accounts on the same Mac to move it to a shared folder? I'm running 10.4.8 on an Intel iMac. Thanks in advance!

After reading this and several other related threads, I am becoming thoroughly confused about all of this. I have a situation similar to the one that pokerpal described in the post dated January 7 at 8:06 pm, except that the music files on my system are located on an external hard drive. Everything else is pretty much the same though - I am the admin user (and the main iTunes user and maintainer) and my girlfriend is a standard user who has no music in her own iTunes library. She can see and listen to and make playlists from and sync her iPod with the music in this library from her account, and I can do the same thing, independent of her, from my account. And if I make a change to information within a song, she doesn't see it, and vice versa, and I understand that. What I don't understand is why when I add a song or an album to the music files by importing a CD or downloading something from the iTunes Music Store, she has no way of knowing that unless I tell her, and then she can add it to her library by using the "Add to Library" function. Is there no way of automatically updating her library files to add the new song(s)? We have almost 15,000 songs and videos in that library, and I don't even want to think about what might have to happen if the answer to my question is "no." Interestingly enough, if I put an update to a Word document in the same exact location (on the hard drive), we can update that and pass it back and forth all day - why is that such a difficult task for iTunes to accomplish?
Sorry I went on so long, but this has been building up for some time, and none of the solutions I've read about here have really been of any help, so I'm a bit frustrated and, as I said at the beginning, confused.

ITunes open in multiple accounts on the same Mac

I have a family of 3, and I'd like to use different accounts on the same Mac to sync for each. However, I like to only use one of the account for my apple tv. What I discovered is if I have more than 1 instance of iTunes 10.5 running, home share breaks on apple tv.
Also, is it possible to lock an i-device to a particular instance of iTunes on the machine?

I need to clear space on my mac and have 2 other devices I need space on- IpHone and Ipad. I have Itunes match. If I delete the library from my computer, how can I play music from the cloud on all devices. S

I am almost out of space on my mac and Ipad. Need to clear songs off, but afraid I won't be able to listen without going to my external hard drive. I have Itunes match but don't know how they are accessed from the cloud. Thoroughly confused and frustrated. Hope someone can help.
Another question is my Iphotos are taking up tons of space and I don't know if they are in cloud or best way to back up. Any thoughts?

If you have iTunes Match, and your music is in your Match library, you can access it from iCloud on all your devices, provided they are signed into your iTunes Match account. Make sure you keep a backup of your music somewhere though as the match process isnt' perfect and you may find that some of your iTunes Match music isn't exactly the same as the original (see https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4112).
The best way to back up your photos is to import them to your computer as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083. If you are out of room on your Mac, get an inexpensive external drive to save your photos on.

How do I make a bootable clone (with Lion already installed on my Mac)?

Hi all, I'm hoping someone can help clarify with a step-by-step on this. Here's the deal: I have a 2008 MacBook Pro, which I updated from Snow Leopard to Lion via the App Store. I have decided to upgrade my internal hard drive (which I've done before) from a 500GB to 750GB, but after doing a couple hours of research, the whole Lion element is making me nervous.
I've been reading about the whole Lion Recovery partition, which won't be brought over with a simple cloning process (via SuperDuper! or the like) and I'm now thoroughly confused with how to do this the proper way. I don't know if I need to use the Recovery Disk Assistant app on the new 750GB hard drive, or on a separate (third) drive, or to make a bootable Lion install disk on either, or even if I do do these things, how this meshes on the new drive, and do I need to format the new drive with two partitions for the Recovery partition to be a part of it?... Oy.
I'd really be appreciative if someone with the know-how of this process could help with the steps. It doesn't need to be crazy thorough--as I said, I've at least replaced my drive before--but I'm not an expert by any stretch (as a point of reference: bring up Terminal and my eyes will roll back in my head). I just need to know what to do in what order, with at least a little detail. And if it means anything to you, I'm the type of guy who likes to know WHY I'm doing something, if possible... Thanks in advance for your time and help.
(I've already got the new 750GB drive in hand, an external enclosure and a separate 8GB+ drive, too.)

You can use 3rd party software such as Carbon Copy Cloner or SuperDuper! to create a bootable clone on an external drive.
I use SuperDuper to create a clone. Yes, it's true the Recovery HD will need to be recreated after restoring a clone because neither of these softwares nor Time Machine backup that partition. It's really no big deal. You just reinstall Lion on top of itself after the restore and reapply any Software Updates including the 10.7.1 update. I've done this a few times with no issues.
The Lion Recovery Assistant app creates an external Recovery HD on like a USB thumb drive, but it creates this using the Recovery HD from your Lion install. If the Recovery HD is missing, the app will not create one for you.
EDITED:
Create your bootable clone on an external drive.
Create an external USB thumb drive with the Recovery HD using the Lion Recovery Assistant.
Swap out hard drives.
Boot from the USB Recovery HD thumb drive.
Use Disk Utilities to create a new partition (Macintosh HD), format it with the GUID partition table and Mac OS Extended (Journaled).
While in Disk Utilities, click your hard drive (not the new partition); then click the Restore button.
The Source of your restore is the external clone you created. The Destination is the newly created Macintosh HD partition.
Click the Restore button. The restore will take awhile depending on the size of the clone.
After the restore, boot your system and it should boot into Lion.
Reinstall Lion on top of itself to recreate the Recovery HD at the end of your Lion partition.
Reapply Software Updates including the 10.7.1 update (if you want it).
Hope this helps!
