What is the main benefit of buying an ipad ? what can you actually do in 16, 32 0r 64 gb when you have 510 gb laptop with you ?

What is the main benefit of buying an ipad ? what can you actually do in 16, 32 0r 64 gb when you have 510 gb laptop with you ?

For me? the advantage of an ipad over a laptop....instant on, instant off, thin and portable. Check your e-mail and put it down, not wait 5 minutes to boot, check your mail, shut it down.
Is it as fully functional as a laptop? no. Not meant to be. What it lacks in functionality it makes up for in portability.
Is a necessity? no. But quite handy.

Race conditions - can you actually lose the data in memory?

I've seen posts where a race condition can actually destroy the contents of a global memory. I understand about not getting the right information if your read just beats your write, but can it actually lose the data altogether? This would mean you have to semaphore every time you write to a global if you have something polling on it to guarantee the data doesn't get lost. I've never seen this in any example programs - its hard to believe!

I think the idea is merely that when you write to a global (or any)
variable the previous contents are overwritten. If you intended to read the
global before the write but the write ends up happening first then you lose.

HT4059 How do you actually search for free books - a few are listed, but not many and I know there are thousands more, but can't figure out how to see the complete list or at least a genre list. Thanks!

How to access the list and genre of the free ebooks, also the paid ones. I have a few, but I know there are thousands of others to choose from, but don't know how to access them. Thanks!

I'm another one of the very grumpy customers regarding the problems synching Outlook calendars with the new 2.0 iPhone.
I have another twist: I did not ever have multiple calendars in Outlook until the 2.0 update; I had just one. After I updated the iPhone software to 2.0 I have multiple calendars which I did not create. My iPhone has all the events listed, color coded by these various calendars, but when I look at my calendar(s) in Outlook, I can not see all the events at once. So my iPhone is the most complete, and my computer version is fragmented. This is an unacceptable royal pain. I'm relieved to know it's not just me, my iPhone, my Outlook, etc., but I'm definitely one of the many of us who are grumpy with Apple and impatient for their fix.
My question is: how do I sync my Outlook to my iPhone and delete all these calendars without deleting events? I just want one calendar again: mine, all mine.
PS I do have recurring events, but way too many to hand change them all; that's ridiculous. Even if I didn't have many of those it's ridiculous that the recurrences should create these problems. It's a pretty basic electronic calendar function.

How long of battery life can you actually get on your U410/U300?

Hi --
I got my U410 Ultrabook today and thus far have been extremely happy. The internet isn't spotty, the touchpad and keyboard work great, and it looks beautiful. The only concern I have is the battery life. Lenovo advertises 8 hours but I expected five or six realistcally.
I started mine up right off the bat and it was at around 80%. I did some hardcore downloading and was using it constantly and it died in maybe 2.5 hours (to be generous). I'm charging it right now and am hoping to get a better result off a full battery.
What's everyone else's actual batery life experience? What are you usually averaging from a full battery? I figure if I turn down the brightness a lot and don't download a lot I can probably max out the performance.
Honestly I'd be happy with five hours on a full charge.

I was the one who reported 5.5 hours of battery.
On the first day, when the battery was dying pretty quickly, I went into Resource Monitor (quickest way to get there is to start Task Manager, go to the Performance tab, and click Resource Monitor at the bottom of that window.)
You can sort that list by the CPU column.
Anyway, I saw Quick Update eating up a large amount of CPU time.... like 25% or more. Quick Update is bloatware, designed to update email and social media in the background. Do people still even use local email clients??? ;-)
After uninstalling Lenovo Quick Update my CPU usage dropped dramatically and battery life went up 2x.
Thanks, battery life has definitely improved after a week now and with brightness settings adjusted and uninstalling Quick Update it's even better.

Can you filter/search images before importing them?

Is there a way to filter images before importing them in Lightroom?
Scenario
I work with an extensive image collection stored on a server. The images contain a full set of metadata, including keywords and more. When I work on a specific project, I import the images into a Lightroom collection. That way I can easily review, rate and add additional keywords to those best-of images.
The challenge is that the images I want to add are from numerous folders. Plus, I often only want to add some images from those folders (not the entire folder). This collection process can be very time consuming -- manually locating the images and checking/unchecking the ones I want and repeating the process for the different folders the images reside in.
The process could be greatly simplified (and a lot faster) if I could filter/search for images that contain key words or other metadata to find the full set of images I want to import.
The key is that I’m not using a workflow to simply import all images from a memory card or download folder. I’m working from a large collection of existing images and want to import a subset of those images.
Thanks in advance.

No, you cannot filter or search images before importing them.
But immediatley after import the images are automatically displayed in <Previous Import>.
They will be displayed there until you import another set of images.
While displayed in <Previous Import> they can be searched and filtered.

Can you actually buy a 3GS in Ireland?

I'm starting to believe that the iPhone 3GS is just a myth here in Ireland. I've been trying to buy a pay-as-you-go 32GB black model since June without success. Last year, I tried to buy a 3G from June up until December and couldn't get one then either. Out of stock, out of stock, out of stock...
There are two suppliers in Ireland: o2 and Carphone Warehouse. With o2, the 32GB model is listed as "out of stock" for all but the most expensive plan (iPhone 700). Carphone Warehouse have no information at all about iPhone availability on their website - apparently, you're supposed to individually check with each of their local stores.
Unlike o2, however, Carphone Warehouse do provide a contact phone number on their website. I've just spent the last hour on hold with them, only to be informed by what sounded like a prerecorded message that there was no one available to take my call because the building had just been evacuated. I kid you not.
You can't contact o2 except via webmail. Which they just ignore. I find it astonishing that companies in the business of getting people to talk to each other make it impossible for you to talk to them.
I've got €800 burning a hole in my pocket right now. I would like it to go to Apple, but if their sales agents in this benighted country are so intent on choking off the iPhone supply I may have no option but to look at other smartphones.
I'll give it till the end of this month. After that, I've had enough of this nonsense.

Thanks for the advice, Dave. I'm sorry but I don't buy the supply/demand mismatch theory in this case. It may have been true for the first couple of years of the iPhone's life but I very much doubt that it's true today, unless Apple is now being managed by morons.
I've just rechecked the o2 webshop and found that I can buy any model of the 3G for any tariff and for pay-as-you-go. Even my two brain cells tell me that this means that o2 originally didn't believe the G3 would sell well, were subsequently overwhelmed by the demand, and overstocked it when it was much too late and the 3GS was on its way.
To shift this outdated stock, they're restricting 3GS sales to their most expensive tariff. Essentially, o2 don't give two hoots for Apple's interests - they don't care about selling the iPhone, they only care about selling their own products.
Sometimes I think what this country needs is another Famine...

Can you actually claim for headphones replacement?

I'm in the UK and I've been trying to use Online Service Assistant to claim for malfunctioning earphones (with remote) according to Apple replacement program. But every try ends right after submiting all details, delivery, billing address and paycard details with "+Your request can't be finished at this moment, please try later...+"
I have no Apple Store anywhere near around, so *what else I can do to get this headphones replaced*? I got proper Serial Number, my Shuffle is out of coverage, but that can't be a problem as everything with online forms goes well until the very last submit.
*Anyone else is having this problem?*

Recently purchased the 3rd Generation iPod Shuffle (Not a serial number included in the replacement program). I have not been able to get through one workout with this product without it failing due to moisture. I bought this shuffle to replace a Nano that never failed during a workout but required the use of an armband. There is clearly something wrong with this product as this is the first iPod, Walkman, Rio, Portable CD player I've ever had that failed during a workout. I was drawn to the small size and I assume most others also purchased this product for exercising. I have also tried both the Belkin Adaptor ($20) and the iLuv Adaptor ($10) and both failed during the first workout as well... usually about 30 minutes before it flakes out. Do not buy this product if you intend to use it exercise with! This is a lemon and should be avoided.

Can you actually SHORTEN a video clip?

I've tried cropping, clearing, cutting, etc., a long clip to make it short, but when I try to move it somehwere new, it always moves the ENTIRE original clip...can I get around this?

Hi Wahaco - by "moving it somewhere new" do you mean shifting it to a new project? If so, then it will indeed move the entire original clip as this is a function of non-destructive editing.
There is a workaround however. You can Share the clip/clips to Full Quality QT, which will create new files that include only your trimmed versions:
1. Select the clips you want to move.
2. Go File>Share - then choose QuickTime and Full Quality.
3. Tick the "Share Selected Clips Only' box.
Another way is to Share the Selected Clips Only, back to camera, where they will be stored on dv tape.
Have I understood your problem?

I hate Outlook, how do you actually search by sender like in Gmail?

Bare in mind the more you cache offline the more space you need locally - if you had a 50GB mailbox and had 45GB used, and choose to cache all files, you'd need 45GB plus additional space for index, and the DB extras, so probably close to the 50GB mark

Dealing with a ton of photos. Can you find/search for duplicates??

Hi,
I am trying to help my parents with merging photos from 5 different computers. They have several old pc's and now two new macs. Unfortunately they have about 10+ years of photos on these computers and many of the photos are duplicates. Virtually every photo is a long string of digits followed by .jpg. They are contained within about 400+ folders that quite frankly make little sense. I have copied all the photos from each computer onto one external hard drive.
Is there a way to search for duplicates within that many folders? Unfortunately, some of the cameras they used didn't have the correct date set and it is impossible to figure out when the photos were taken! Also they copied many photos into Iphoto and in the process made additional copies.
Augh!
Thanks for any help!
Gary

Hello Gary:
I rarely post +"me too"+ comments, but let me echo Matt's suggestion. I used duplicate annihilator with quite a bit of success myself when I imported a library from another computer.

2013 27" iMac, can you have THREE 27" screens NOT mirrored?

Straightforward question:
Say you have the BRAND NEW 2013 27" iMac
Say you have TWO of the 2013 brand new, thunderbolt 27" external monitors.
YES you can plug in both the monitors, giving you "three displays"
HOWEVER
Can you run this as THREE LOGICAL DISPLAYS.
So, you can move your mouse pointer completely from monitor A to B to C
So what I mean is NOT using mirroring in any combination. Three full logical screens?
Is this actually possible?
Has anyone DONE IT and can supply a PHOTO?
Apple DOES NOT answer this question anywhere.
Pls do not answer unless you know the difference between mirrored and logical screens, thanks!
Yes, it says everywhere on the Apple web site you can connect "two external displays". No big deal.
Can you actually have three LOGICAL displays (move your mouse pointer completely from monitor A to B to C, the content of all three screens is completely different).
This is a straightforward question that I have never seen decisively answered. Thanks for any info.

Contacted Apple support with the same question. This is what I heard back. The iMac supports 2 Thunderbolt displays because it has dedicated graphic cards. It supports only 2 thunderbolt displays. Hope it helps.

When an album has multiple artist how can you make them show up on an iPod Touch 4G? I can find an artist using the search function but they don't show up in the artist view on my iPod. iTunes shows them OK when you sort by artist.

Tech support seemed to understand the question but had no answer. Why would an album with only one artist show the artist but an album with multiple artist not show any of them. The album art show various in iTunes. That makes sense but on my iPod I would expect to see all artists.

Wish I did. I tried the group function but that didn't help in iTunes. The search function is the best I came up with. I can answer the question do you have susch and such artist. But I can't browse for an artist I don't remember exactly or have misspelled. Fortunately I don't think I've bought anything from iTunes that i already had. If you can't see an artist it's possible you think you don't have something you actually do have. Sorry, still hoping for a better work around or better yet a fix.

When importing files, my view window to search for files is really small, how do I make it bigger so I can actually search for files?

When importing files, my view window to search for files is really small, how do I make it bigger so I can actually search for files?

How big this is depends on the size of your screen. On a 13" it is really small. But you can improve things a bit. Click the green button to make the import window fill the screen.
Drag the area between the file list and the preview area up or down to increase one or the other:

HT201209 Can you use an iTunes gift card to purchase something actually in an app? (Like buy coins in the app and use your gift card)

Can you use an iTunes gift card to purchase things actually in an app? (Buy "coins" using the gift card?)

No idea, but it seems like you should be able to. You can give it a try, but will have to figure out some way around the automatic 1-click ordering that the App Store now does by default.
It certainly seems like something deserving of a feedback form submission, though ...
