Can DVD be used to record data for backup

I just bought a MacBook and am on vacation. I've downloaded a lot of pictures into iPhoto. Approx 2 GB. I want to do a backup to ensure I won't lose them. Can a DVD be used rather than a CD? If so, what is the best method. Disk image? or what do you recommend.
In anticipation, thanks.

Insert the DVD into the computer, click on the item in the Finder's sidebar named Pictures, drag the iPhoto Library inside to the DVD, and burn it.

Can Time Capsule use another local network for backup?

Our LAN has a a separate wireless network solely for backup. The machines on the network use ethernet for routine operations and wireless to access backup disks. Can a Time Capsule access this backup LAN or must the machines all tune into its own wireless network?

Yes, you can. Just mount the disk you want to backup onto and select it in the Time Machine preferences. The backups are deadly slow wirelessly, so you'll want to backup with your mac getting it's internet over FireWire from the computer with the disk attached. But restoring works well wirelessly. As you can probably tell by my description here, I backup to a network volume myself. I do know that you can't backup to the same backup scheme both with a local disk and network volume (same disk).
Hope this helps,
Alex

Can we use the AdventureWorks2008R2 data for the real time project.

Hi,
In our project we are trying to do the data scrambling on First name, last name and middle name...
In the regular practice we use to update the names as
First Name = FN+<PERSON_SNO>
Last Name = LN+<PERSON_SNO>
Middle Name = MN+<PERSON_SNO>
The Problem is the names are not looking realistic, so I thought of applying some logic and updating our PERSON table names based on Person.Person table in adventure works.
My question is can we use the AdventureWorks2008R2 data for the real time project. Is there any cop right issue.
Someone please help me solve this issue.
Thanks

Can a PO be generated using Info record marked for deletion

Hello all,
Is it possible that PO be generated using Info record marked for deletion?
Observed that a info record is marked for deletion but still able to see a PO generated using this info record.
Is this becasue - PO can be generated untill info record is actually deleted from the system during next reorganization run?
What is reorganization run?

Hello S. Iyer,
I have following queries -
1. What is meaning of your statement -
"If you want to restrict creation of POs against deleted info record"
Do you mean that info record is "deleted" or "marked for deletion"?
2. Any way, is there difference between two - "deleted" or "marked for deletion"?
3. Where in the info record I can see history of marking for deletion to see who and when marked it for deletion?
4. Observed that there is a message that comes up that info record is marked for deletion.
Is there indication on info record itself like - permanent record, tick mark to indicate that it is marked for deletion?
Regds.,

Use R/3 data for segmentation

Hello all,
I have a question concerning the use of R/3 data in the segment builder:
Is there another way to segment after data of R/3 than using the BI?
Can you create R/3 Infosets in SAP CRM?
Or can you only use R/3 data in the segment builder via info cubes of BI?
Thanks for your help!
Regards Anne

Hi Burcu,
thanks for your answer!
Are there restricitions for the infosets created in R/3? Do you work with a function modulte to convert BP number to a GUID?
Do you know if there is any detailed documentation about this topic? (except help.sap.com because it is not very helpful!)
Because in our system we tried to implement this but it is not working.
Thanks for your help in advance!
Regards Anne

Can I easily use a Dell monitir for my MacBook?

Can I easily use a Dell monitor for my MacBook?

Couple thoughts:
1. ALWAYS put the drive in that fits the way it's suppose to. not a good thing to put one in that doesn't fit right as it can cause issues with ejecting disc or damage other parts.
2. the +R stuff seems to hold up better than the -R. I only use +R discs now, I've seen a few -Rs fail after time & have spoken to PC people that had the same thing.
OWC sells the drive that fits your machine & burns everything CD & DVD wise. http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/superdrive/MacBookPro17

Can i still use Fast Web View for PDF/A files?

Can i still use Fast Web View for PDF/A files?
In other words, just becasue I am using PDF/A, can I still select the page i need in a long document and see it before the entire file has loaded?

macjack has a very valid point, so you might want to consider a second drive for files.
To partition, you need to boot into the Recovery Volume (command - R) on restart. Select Disk Utility.
Step 1 - select the hard drive.
Step 2 - select the Partition tab.
Step 3 - select the current partition and then use the lower right corner to push up and resize the partition.
Step 4 - click the plus sign to add a partition. Then select the new partition.
Step 5 - Name the new partition and select the format. The one shown in the screen shot is generally recomended.
Step 6 - Hit apply.
This procedure can be reversed at a later date if you find your Time Machine backup needs more space.

Can Flash be used as the GUI for an application

Can Flash be used as the GUI for an application (desktop software, not web based) written for the .NET framework? I want to author an application that would be perfect for flash as a the GUI, but it would need to be able to support a pretty full API for Flash and the wrapper application, written in c#, as they would be passing a lot of data between eachother, as well as getting and sending data over the web. So, can Flash be used in .NET? What kind of API does it have? Or am I stuck with the Windows look/feek thanks,

i'm no expert on this, but read up on Adobe Air. In the most basic terms it allows you to create flash apps that can be deployed on the desktop and will run mac/windows.
this article here might address your exact query:

Do you mean through iCloud? You need to go to settings > iCloud and "delete account" and then sign in with the newly named account. You'll want to do similar for facetime, messages, and store.

On imac 10.6.8 using current version of Aperture. How can I access the Aperture Library on my external hard drive that I use with time machine for backup? I can only access the application but not the library..

On imac 10.6.8 using current version of Aperture. How can I access the Aperture Library on my external hard drive that I use with time machine for backup? I can only access the application but not the library..

Go into Time Machine (the program not the bundle on the extrnal disk) and using Time Machine's browser go to the Folder where the library lives. You could look in the library bundle in Time Machine but that won't really tell you much,
If you want to make sure it truely has backed up your library you will need to restore it and open the restored library with Aperture.
If all this still has you confused you need to read up on Time Machine in order to get a feel for how it works, for what it is doing and for how to restore files from it.

Can I only use the itunes ID for the music and my other id for my computer and Iphone

Can I just use one Itunes id for Match and another Id for my apps on my phone and my Mac?

If I'm understanding your question correctly, no. iTunes Match is tied to an Apple ID and regional store. Once you sign into an Apple ID on a device and use iTunes Match it is not possible to switch between Apple IDs for 90 days. You will not be able to regularly update your apps.
