Can I backup several machines to the same TC?

Can I backup several machines to the same TC?
Yes. No special configuration is required, and there are no extra issues other than the additional space requirement.

I am new to pages and want to know how to link elements together to create one unified element that I can then duplicate several times on the same page?

I think you are talking about grouping objects.
1. They must all be floating objects
2. Command click on each in turn

How can I export several versions at the same time?

Greetings -
I'm looking for something that I may just be missing, and hoping someone here can point me in the right direction.
Basically, I'd like to be able to select an image in my library and export several versions at the same time. For example, I select a photo and export JPG, TIFF and PSD versions in one shot without having to run three separate export requests - essentially a batch action. I can't imagine that this isn't built in already - I'm just assuming that I'm missing something obvious.
Thanks in advance for any advice anyone might have.
John.

Fwiw, I've not seen this requested before.
This kind of Export option is very typical, Kirby, when the rendering of the exported version will take a long time, for example for video or audio. Then you can share several formats at once, to render a version suitable for the web, for viewing on the computer, or the iPhone at the same time. That is really useful, if you render a movie at a full HD resolution and don't have to do it again for an iPhone/iPod version.
QuickTime 7 does this for the "File > Export for Web" option, for example. You can get three versions of your final movie at the same time.
And I just checked, the new iMovie Theater does this as well, when sharing a movie to the Theater:
When you add a movie, trailer, or clip to the Theater, iMovie creates versions of your movie tailored for local playback, playback on an iOS device, and streaming.
Come to think about it - exporting a webpage from Aperture will also export thumbnail sized images plus a larger version for downloading.

Backup two machines to the same USB HD

I have two M90p machines each has Rescue and Recovery 4.52 installed. I have a 1TB USB drive and I want to back up both machines to the same drive. I noticed that when I backup one machine the backup is stored in RRbackups. If I try to backup the other machine will it be stored in the same directory?

The structure of the RNR backup folder is as follows:
RRbackups\SZ\*UUID of your machine*\**folders**.
UUID is the universally unique  identifier. Each machine has a different UUID. (stored in BIOS).
This allows multiple machines to backup to the same External HDD.
Your folder would look like this:
RRbackups\SZ\*UUID machine 1*\**folders**.
                         \*UUID machine 2*\**folders**.
====
How to view the \rrbackups folder.
go to control panel>folder options>view. Make sure the show hidden files button is marked.
Also uncheck the Hide protected operating system files. APPLY. You will get a POP up warning message.
\RRbackups is BOTH a hidden file and a protected operating system file.
\programdata appears to be Hidden, but NOT a protected operating system file.   This is just FYI.
Then look for folder \RRbackups. You should have 1 on the C drive, and 1 on the USB.
Your backups should be in D:\RRbackups\SZ\your uid\C     folder.
D:\RRbackups\SZ\your uid\C\0 is base , D: \RRbackups\SZ\your uid\C\1 is incremental 1.
If you try to peek in the folder, and get "access is denied", you will have to change windows security on the folder to allow you access to it. Otherwise PROPERTIES of the folder will show 0 bytes.
Windows security:
Right click the \RRbackups folder, PROPERTIES. Select the Security tab.
You will get a do you want to continue message? Continue.
You will see an entry for SYSTEM. Select the add button.
Enter object name field.
Just type USERS in the field. Apply.
You will now see the default access for users on the machine.
Apply. OK. OK.
Done.
You may want to UNDO the above if you want the folder back to ACCESS denied. Just go back thru secuity tab and remove group USERS. ** Leave SYSTEM group alone

Can I union several cursors for the same secondary db?

I want to search several keys in one secondary database.
select * from adb where a=6 or a=9 or ....
certainly, this can be done by running several queries, but it is definitely slow.
wondered if it is possible to union these several cursors together, then fetch the data from the primary database at once? seems this is not supported in current BDB implementation.
trying to modify the bdb code to support the cursor union operation. but get lost in the code. (seems java version is simpler than the c version. )
can some friend from Oracle, Ron, Bogdan, Andrei,Alexander
shed me some light on how a cursor in bdb is implemented. did not find too much detail in the document.
and hope this is in the to-do list of next version.
thanks

Hi,
The idea of joining cursors on the same secondary db presents no logic since you don't want to identify common keys within the records corresponding to each cursor.
A join cursor works the following way: the first cursor on a secondary db within the cursor array is analyzed and each primary key that the cursor refers to is searched within the next primary keys refered to by the next joined cursor in the array, and so on, leading to identifying the primary keys that each of cursors within the array refer to (the common keys).
What you want to achieve on a secondary db can be accomplished by positioning several cursors on the records that you want, begin reading sequentially with each of them, go to the other when you have finished reading with one cursor. A faster approach, which shouldn't involve any locking issues since the acquired locks are shared/read locks and you'll not perform any writes at that moment, may be that of spawning several threads and open a cursor within each thread, thus performing multithreading cursor read operations. You'll have to analyze each approach with regard to how many duplicates the cursors will refer, time consumed to spawn the threads etc.
Let us know if you need further information, regards,
Andrei

Can i backup multiple systems to the same tc?

i have just setup TC on my home imac and am trying to get my macbook to back up to the same machine. how do i go about doing it.
when i open the airport utility on the mac it opens the TC showing the internet connection. no option to rescan from my macbook pro.

You need to open Time Machine on the second Mac that you want to backup.
Click System Preferences (gear icon) on the dock
Click Time Machine
Turn Time Machinet "On" and click select disk to setup the connection from the Mac to the Time Capsule.
In other words, setup the second Mac just like you did the first. Time Machine will take care of everything else automatically.

Can I backup two iPhones to the same laptop and iTunes account?

Is it possible to backup and sync an iPhone 4 and an iPhone 3Gs to the same laptop and iTunes account? My wife and I both have iPhones. Her laptop just crashed, so we only have one laptop to use as a back up / sync now.

Yes, iTunes will maintain separate backups for each device. Note, however, ALL iTunes content, presently on your wife's phone will be erased when you first sync it to your computer. So, you need to get all of that content into your iTunes library first. Read here about your choices for managing multiple devices on one computer:

I can't manage to print more than one photo in mosaic view ? Anyone can help me ? Anticipated thanks. JEHAN1

If you have Pages (from the iWork suite of applications) you can create a mosaic of photos on any sized layout by adding the photos to a page of that size, resizing the photos and placing them where you want.
Or use a 3rd party editor that supports layers:
Some Image Editors That Support layers:
Photoshop Elements 11 for Mac - $79
Rainbow Painter - $30
Imagerie - $38
Acorn - $50
Pixelmator - $60

I have just upgraded to Mavericks and have been using Time Machine on an external disk with Snow Leopard. Can I continue to backup with Time Machine on the same external disk or do I need a new disk since the operating system has changed?

I have just upgraded to Mavericks and have been using Time Machine on an external disk with Snow Leopard. Can I continue to backup with Time Machine on the same external disk or do I need a new disk since the operating system has changed?

Hi there,
I found that Time Machine in Mavericks will sort it all out for you. You shouldn't need to buy another backup drive, unless you have insufficient space left and can't afford to delete whats on there. It should just work fine.

Can I restore OSX to a disk, from a backup that's on the same disk?

I have a Powermac G5 Quad, that has two internal drives. (a 250gb system drive, and a 500gb spare).
Both drives are now out of space. I want to purchase a 1TB drive to replace the 250 system drive.
Tell me if this plan makes any sense:
1. Remove the 500gb spare drive.
2. Install the 1 TB drive, format, & use it as the Time Machine backup disk for the system drive.
3. Once the backup is complete, Remove the 250gb system drive.
4. Boot to the 10.5 Install DVD, and select "restore from backup"
5. Use the Backup on the 1 TB Drive, to install the OS on the same disk.
It's step # 5 that I'm not sure will work. Can I install an OS to a disk, from a backup that's on the same disk?

Sorry it took me so long. I had a baby. Anyway, here's how it went down:
I attempted to use the disk utility to "Clone" the original 250gb system disk to the new 1tb Hard drive.
It did not work. Tried booting to the Leopard install disk, and doing it from there, no dice.
So, I went ahead and created 2 partitions on the new 1TB disk. One I called "Time Machine" and it was 300 gigs. The other I called "New System Disk".
I booted to the "Old" System disk, and set up Time Machine to back-up to the "Time Machine" partition. It took 5 hours to back up 250 gigs, but it worked.
I then booted to the 10.5 Install DVD. one of the utilities you can use is "Install from Time Machine Backup" This worked. Took about 5 hours to copy everything to the new "New System Disk".
When that was done, I removed the old system disk. It booted to the new system disk without any trouble.
I was now stuck with a "Time Machine" partition that I did not want. It was EXTRAORDINARILY EASY to delete that partition, then re-size the other one so it took up the entire 1 Terabyte of available space.
So, the answer to the question is: Yes, you can use Time Machine to restore to the same disk, provided that the disk is using two partitions.

How can one share iTunes Library across two machines at the same time?

**I have setup 1 of 2 machines to host all the songs in my iTunes library. I then went to machine 2 of 2 and held down option key on start up of iTUnes, changed the location of the liobrary on machine 2 to a shared folder on machine 1.**
**This works awesome and I can use itunes on each of the machines 1 and 2 with no duplicate library in my home.**
**Problem: I can only run one machine at a time. I can not run itunes on both machines at the same time. The error message from machine 2 is ITUNES library is locked and cant write to the folder. iTunes works correct if I QUIT iTunes on machine 1.**
**Can iTunes run at the same time on 2 machines and access the same library?**
*Thank You Troy*

I filmed several takes of the same scene for a movie. I trimmed the best clips from each take and put them into the project screen. However, I can't figure out how to make it flow seamlessly as one scene. Can someone please help me??

If your computer is on one minute before it freezes, than you have one minute to secure your serial number.
click the apple----->click about this Mac ------> click on version----> until you see the serial number. You may have to do this a couple of times if it freezes before you have all the numbers. A camera might help.
Good Luck
