Can anyone justify buying the iMac for Logic Pro8 despite display prob's?

I've been weighing the option of getting an iMac for using Logic 8 but it's hard for me to ignore that large quantity of posts that deal with a) iMac display issue and b) Apple not doing much about it.
I've heard some say there is no worry because these negative posts represent a small minority. My question is this:
1) Are you sure this is a "trivial" minority? Have you seen the numerous pages of posts about iMac display issues?
2) Where are you getting your proportion data from? What source tells you that "most" iMac user do not have display issues?

I have a relatively new iMac ( 24",2.8, 4 gigs ram, 10.5.6). I'm not privy to these display discussions but I will tell you that my machine has never had the smallest problem displaying Logic Pro 8. For that matter neither did my previous iMac (17", 2 gigs ram, 10.4.11). There may be issues with regard to more graphic-intense applications but not with Logic. Are you a high-end gamer? Do you plan to use your iMac to edit pro-quality images? If not then an iMac will do fine.

Hello, can anyone give us the tips for AirPrint option from iPad to brother MFC 7860DW printer

Hello, can anyone give us the tips for AirPrint option from iPad to brother MFC 7860DW printer

It's possible Brother may provide updates to their printers to make them AirPrint capable or provide app for printing; search the iTunes Store or look to the support resources for your model of printer. For other printers, you can route the printing through your computer. If you have a Mac, Printopia might be worth a look:
http://www.ecamm.com/mac/printopia/
If you have a Windows system, search the web for something like "airprint Windows hack" and you'll find instructions on enabling printing.
Another option is an AirPrint-capable print server. Lantronix makes a couple of models, including one that supports a USB printer:

Can anyone give me the steps for moving the repository databases in 9.3.0?

We are in the 9.3.0 environment and I need to move the four repository databases for essbase, biplus and webanalysis/workspace to a new machine. I tested moving the databases and rerunning the config util, but I lost my sample reports I created earlier. Does anyone have a step by step procedure for moving the repositories?
Thanks,
-C.

If you are moving reports why don't you bulk export them from workspace and then import them into your target.
Are you talking about migrating the repository across different shared services environments, if so then I doubt you will have much luck with trying to migrate the workspace repository as it pretty tied in with shared services.
Cheers

Can anyone let me the step by step procedure for FI-SL

Hi,
Can anyone tell me the procedure for extraction FI-sl.
thanxs
hari

Hi Hari,
Generate Extract Structure for FI-SL Tables (Transaction BW01)
1. Use F4 help to choose the required totals table.
2. Flag whether you want extract structures to be generated for totals records and/or line items.
3. Choose Execute.
4. Result: You have generated the extract structure(s).
The extract structures contain the name of the totals table:
¡ Totals record extract structure: T in the totals table is replaced by B
¡ Line item extract structure: T in the totals table is replaced by W
Table group GLFUNC:
§ Totals table: GLFUNCT
§ Totals table extract structure; GLFUNCB
§ Line item extract structure: GLFUNCW
Assign DataSource to a Ledger (Transaction BW03)
1. After starting the transaction, you see a list of all selectable ledgers for which you can generate or maintain DataSources for totals records and/or line items.
If a required ledger does not appear, you might not have generated an extract structure for the corresponding table. In this case, execute transaction BW01.
The list contains the following information (columns from left to right)
· Ledger
· Description of the ledger
· Table (totals table corresponding to the ledger)
· Totals record DataSource
· Delta-compatibility of the totals record DataSource (from Release 4.70)
· Status of the totals record DataSource
· Line item DataSource
· Status of the line item DataSource
The status display in the column to the right of the field shows the current status of each DataSource.
2. Choose a DataSource by placing the cursor in the corresponding row for the ledger and column for the totals records or line items and carrying out a double-click.
Depending on your choice, the system now displays either the Totals record DataSource or Assign Line Item DataSource dialog box.
3. Enter the corresponding data.
When you create a new DataSource, the system proposes a name according to the following naming convention:
¡ Total record DataSources: 3FI_SL_xx_TT
¡ Line item DataSources: 3FI_SL_xx_SI (xx stands for the ledger in question)
You can change the proposed name (though the 3 at the beginning cannot be changed). However, you are strongly advised to retain the naming convention from the proposal.
For the totals record DataSource, the option Activate Delta Updating is only displayed from Release SAP R/3 470. Delta updating is mandatory for line item DataSources. To display these, the flag Activate Delta Updating has to be activated in the dialog box.
4. Choose Continue.
The DataSource: Edit Customer Version screen appears. Here, you can exclude individual fields in the ledger from selection or transfer to the BW.
5. Configure the DataSource and save your settings.
6. Result: You have generated and can now use a DataSource for data extraction for your FI-SL ledger.

If you have iWork 09, then the latest version should be available for free in the Mac App Store. If you have the new version on your iPad, then you'll need the new version on your Mac as well. The whole point of the latest version is that you can access and edit your files equally on iPad/iPhone, Mac, and also through the iCloud website.

Pair a wireless KB with the laptop and all should be well when you attach the laptop to the iMac and invoke TDM. But as Denny mentions, it does seem like the waste of a good iMac to use it in just this configuration. Why is the laptop primary?

I use free Yahoo mail webMail access because folders I created in webmail access doesn't get set up in Apple Mail. While I was searching for post about password and keychain issues, I stumbled on several threads that complain about Mail folder issues, so I'm holding off on Apple Mail.
On the password and keychain issue that your post is all about. I've been using login keychain to save and automatical fill my login screens for a year or so successfully, with Safari and Chrome. Automatic form fill also works for Facebook login. Unfortunately, about 4 to 6 months ago, automatic password form fill stopped working with Yahoo webmail, while still worked for GMail (Safari and Chrome). I tried deleting the password entry for my two Yahoo email accounts to start fresh, but neither Safari not Chrome will even ask me if I want to save the password. I was so frustrated that I eventually installed the keypassX 0.43 (password manager) that is quite primitive sompare to OS X's keychain (when it works). Probably no surprise to you yet.
The surprise, to me at least, is that, for whatever reason, password auto form-fill from keychain started working again for Yahoo webmail login on Safari about 5-7 days ago. Still doesn't work on Chrome!
Two tips I can share, at least with webmail access:
1. Password is save only for one of my yahoo mail accounts. When I login in with my other yahoo account, I get no prompt to save the password, and form fill doesn't work when I try to log in a second time with my other Yahoo mail account.
2. On inspection of my login keychain, I see a webform password item saved for my Yahoo account that works with keychain. The name of the password is: login.yahoo.com(MyAccountName1#). When I open the password item and look in the Access Control tab, I see Safari and Chome are listed as allowed to access this password item..
I also an "Internet password" item with a name of just login.yahoo.com. When I open the the password item, it looks just like the password item created for MyAccountName#1, but the MyAccountName#2 is listed in the Account field. Inside the Access Control tab, no apps are listed in access permission. I added Safari and Chrome to the lists of allowed app, saved the password item.
Now when I bring up the Yahoo login page(by bookmark) on Safari, form fill fills in MyAccountname#1 for name and the proper password and I can login in. When I change the name to MyAccountName#2, the correct password is retrieved and I can log in! Alas, it still doesn't work on Chrome.
BTW, I changed the password item type from "Internet password" to "Web Form password" and saw no difference! I also edited the name to be "login.yahoo.com (MyAccountName#2)" to look like the web form password item that works, but it has no effect either.
From my experimentation, here's my observation:
1. A Web Form password item is created for the first account name(MyAccountName#1) for login.yahoo.com and typed as Web Form password. When I log in using MyAccountName#2, an Internet Password is created, but no applications are listed as allowed to access the password item, even when the password item was created after just logged in and logged out to yahoo with the account name and password for MyAccountName#2.
2. Manually adding Safari as an app that is allowed to use the password item works. Doesn't work with Chrome!
The version of Safari I'm using is Version 5.1.7 (6534.57.2). My installed version of Chrome is Version 21.0.1180.79 beta.

Where i can buy the keyboard for garage? and what other else has to buy to start my garageband?

Where i can buy the keyboard for garage? and what other else has to buy to start my garageband? I am a beginner for garageband. Thanks.

I second the M-Audio recommendation. I have the Oxygen 8 and 61es keyboards from them, and they both work flawlessly with Garageband.
what other else has to buy to start my garageband?
This depends on what you want to do with Garageband. Do you want to record with a keyboard only and just use Garageband's built-in software instruments? Do you want to record vocals? Do you want to record a guitar or bass or other instrument? Do you want to record drums?
Technically, you don't even need a keyboard to use Garageband, you could just use the software keyboard (Window -> Keyboard) or musical typing (Window-> Musical Typing). However, an external keyboard will give you a lot more flexibility. I don't recommend trying to record drums into Garageband unless you already know how to mic drums. Instead use the built-in drum kit software instruments with your keyboard.
Your iMac has a built-in mic, so you should be ok recording vocals with that.
If you want to record an acoustic guitar or another acoustic instrument, you can also use the built-in mic though you may find that you don't like the way it sounds very much since built-in mics tend to pick up lots of noise from the computer itself.
If you want to record an electric guitar or bass, you can just plug in the line out on your instrument to the line in port on your iMac, but you won't get really good results. You'd be better off geting a piece of hardware called an audio interface Sweetwater sells these too: http://www.sweetwater.com/shop/computer-audio/audio_interfaces/ (USB and Firewire interfaces are easiest to start with.) M-Audio also has some good cheap interfaces. I've used the FastTrack Pro for a few years now, and I started out with the FastTrack USB.
Ok, that's probably more than you wanted to know...happy Garageband-ing!
