Challenge - Where is the best place to host reports given the following limitations?

Hello All,
I am going to box everyone in a little bit here but where is the best place to host reports given the following restrictions:
Cannot be within a BPF
Cannot be accessed from via the EPM folders
The crux of here is that some of our end users only want to go and run reports much like you would in a traditional BI environment. Given that BPC has no concept of a portal page for hosting such reports we need the next best thing. Currently we are posting reports to the documents folder but the downside of this is that we need a distinct copy of a report for each environment (DEV, QA, PROD) which is quite unfortunate. Coming from a traditional the seems ridiculous.
Cheers,

We use EPM folders to save the reports.
Perhaps for your requirement, you should look to Web forms and Web reports..

When group-working from SAN, where is the best place to store Cache Files, the Cache Database, and render files?

I have a small post production house, and we are spinning up into editing our first series. We're all working from a SAN, and sharing projects and sequences via the Media Browser. It's working great so far, but we've been having issues (could be user error) with trying to figure out where best to store the Media Cache database, the cache files, and the preview files so when a project is moved from one machine to another, it doesn't constantly have to re-conform all of the media in the project.
We have a very large master project, as this is a documentary style show, so there are hours and hours of clips.
When I open a project on a new or different machine it has to conform EVERYTHING in the project again.
Where should I store all these conform and cache files so that new people can get started working without having a machine literally be unusable until the conform process finishes?
Thanks!

Hi Jon,

Glad it is working for you. Just to let you know, this workflow is not officially supported so your mileage may vary based on the kind of system you're working with. There are a lot of variations to the quality of these kinds of systems. Some are turn key, some home built - so I think you understand.

While it's possible to have the cache files (and the database) in a central location (I only know of one place that pulls that off, and it's a very, very large place), the systems that have this data stored locally are far more reliable. You can work around all the reconfirming by avoiding moving the project data around. You really don't need to move the project around from place to place. Have one computer as the "hub" for inputting data from other workstations. Wouldn't that work?

Can't you just have the master project on one machine and work on shorter sequences of your doc on the other machines? When done, just import to the master machine.
Where should I store all these conform and cache files so that new people can get started working without having a machine literally be unusable until the conform process finishes?
Premiere Pro simply must have those cache files in order to work. Sorry, there's no way around this problem unless you change your workflow.
Thanks,
Kevin

Where is the best place to put cfqueries?

Where is the best place to put cfqueries, in the <head> </head> or before the html tag? Thanks

So before the doctype tag? Thanks
I just doesn't really matter. the doctype, head, body, etc only matter to the browser; the CF tags only matter to CF. The browser doesn't see the CFML, and CF doesn't care about the mark-up one bit: it just ignores it.
The best place - as I said - is not in the same file at all. But if you insist on slapping your business logic in with your display logic, then the only consideration is that you need to set your variables before you use them. Other than that: it simply doesn't matter.
One consideration you might make is - even if it's all thrown into the same one file - at least separate the file itself into sections: have all your CFML code that gets your data at the top, and try to limit the CFML you have mixed in with the mark-up, eg: limit it to stuff like loops and conditionals.
But, seriously, separate your concerns. Dan's pretty much just wrong when he said it's over-engineering. It's just sloppy to not to write tidy, well-maintained, well-organised code.

Where is the best place to get support for iPhoto?

Hello,
I have an issue that is listed here, in regards to iPhoto being very very slow, this is something that started to happen a while ago and I have been all over trying to find something to resolve this issue.
6000+ Images, it used to work fine but now it will not Quit, it just hangs. You can send some images via email then it will crash. I have tried all sorts of suggestions from various forums etc, but nothing. Clearing Cache's etc, nothing seems to help.
Is there any place I can get help from, or should I go directly to Apple for some suggestions?

William,
You have come to the right place -iPhoto forum. It's the best place I know to get the help you need from knowledgeable iPhoto users.
When you say that iPhoto runs slow and quits, that sounds like a memory problem. How much free space do you have on your boot drive? The OS needs about by 15% free and clear disk space to use as virtual memory. An iPhoto library of 6000 can put a real drain on the system.
Apple recommends closing down other applications if you are getting sluggish response from iPhoto to free up memory.
Working in iPhoto you can also speed things up dramatically if you close all the rolls in the library source window, except the one you want to work with.
If you got the zoom set to give you big displays in that source window then minimize the zoom in the organize mode. I photo creates fasting loading thumbnails for browsing through your library. If the zoom is set all the way up, iPhoto has to load the full size file in the library for viewing in the source window. If it has to load all your photos full size in the source window you will get slow response and iPhoto is apt to quit on you

Where's the Best Place....

Hello once again,
I have yet to purchase my MBP, and I am wondering from all of your experiences, where is the best place to buy a 1gig 3rd party RAM. Paying all that money for Apple's RAM isn't that way I want to go, but if there's no recommended 3rd party companies, I may need to cough over the bucks...
thanks,

Fair enough. I wasn't actually suggesting buying from Crucial.The best source for the 1gb Crucial was Newegg.com at $150 - but this is also for a chip that Apple are supplying as original ram so it's not a bad price. I didn't know Crucial sold Samsung - seems a bit odd as they are owned by Micron who also supply Apple as OEM. Business makes for strange bedfellows:)
OWC sell their own branded ram for $112 or so and Samsung M470T295CZ3-CE6 (as also supplied by Apple) for $170. What I was saying was that this Samsung chip,
http://eshop.macsales.com/item/Samsung/53SDR2SAM1GB/
can be found for as little as $120 - so OWC are a tad expensive for this particular chip if that is the one you were thinking of buying.
It sounds like you're going for the OWC own brand, so I can't recommend a cheaper source for that and they know a thing or two about ,macs so there's no reason to not trust their judgement.
Best of luck
Cheers.

If something like this already exists, please let me know.
I often wish when I select a word to right click and choose dictionary to to find out the meaning of the word. Currently I have to copy, go to a dictionary web page, paste and search. And I spent a lot of time for that. I'm not that technically oriented to suggest how this can be achieved but just as an idea, may be Mozilla can partner with dictionary web sites by making a plug ins or include a dictionary with Firefox itself

I am sure there are Extensions that do this.

Where's the best place to store email templates?

Hi all;
In a web app I store all my email templates in a files folder in the web app. Can't do that with a worker in a cloud service - no files. So where's the best place to store them? In a BLOB? And if so, is there a way to have files in my project get automatically
written to BLOB entries when I publish?
thanks - dave
What we did for the last 6 months -
Made the world's coolest reporting & docgen system even more amazing

Hi,
I think we could use azure blob to save files.
>>is there a way to have files in my project get automatically written to BLOB entries when I publish?
If you choose azure cloud service, you could write the upload code at role onstart method. If you choose Azure website, please consider use azure webjob to do this, refer to

Where is the best place to implement business logic in ADF application?

I am using jdeveloper 11g R2 , JSF Facelet
Where is the best place to implement business logic in ADF application?
I mean something like service layer in Spring
Appreciate your comments
Regards
Mohsen

Depends on what your logic does and what data it deals with, but in general business logic is in the ADF BC layer.
Some goes into entity objects - for things like attribute or row validation.
Some goes into view objects - for things like calculation.
Some goes into AM - for things like service methods for UI clients.

Where is the best place to buy a replacement screen for late 2007 Macbook (3.1)?

All,
My screen needs to be replaced on my late 2007 Macbook. I am willing to do the work myself, but need help in finding the correct model screen to buy. Where would be the best place to buy?

Depending on your geographical location, region, country, etc, part
sources will vary. So this is an open question. An independent
authorized Apple trained repair specialist or service facilitiy may
be able to get the part(s) and do the service. That is an old MB
and a regular Apple Store may be able to diagnose or estimate
a repair cost; but it also could be too old for that route to repair.
A best place to buy a part could be anywhere one is for sale;
there are several online and some ship almost world-wide.
If you are in north America, there are some who also may ship
to other areas, but then there is shipping, taxes, duty fees, etc.
You may be able to narrow down the part numbers and such
by looking into online parts resellers, an example may be
powerbookmedic.com, powermax.com, wegenermedia, etc.
There may be a part number reference in iFixit.com guides.
A service part such as main original hardware is more difficult
than a replacement hard disk drive or optical drive. Availability
varies, so without knowing where you are, I can't speculate as
to that, or any price structure. Authorized repair centers may
be found in the main online Apple links for service centers.
Sorry to not be of much help

Where is the best place to save my projects?

I dont know if I have been saving my Project right but I also have a external hard drives and I thought I was saving it their but I check it today and their is nothing on it . Where is the best place to save it or do I even need the external hard drive? Thanks

No idea what you might have done wrong...
By default your projects are saved in Macintosh HD/Users/~<name>/Music/Logic/ folder on your boot drive. Check it first.
You can also try to open your project again using recent files list in Finder or in Logic itself. Then you can find the exact location of your project folder: in the Arrange select an Audio region and go Audio -> Show Selected File(s) in Finder. This will open Audio Files folder in the project folder (well, this will work only if external files are included in the project's assets).
Another method will be using Spotlight (click on magnifying glass icon in the upper-right corner of the screen to open Spotlight and type in your the name under which you saved your project).

Where is the best place to buy the new ipad? Please help

I am ready to buy a new ipad. There is no apple store in my town but I will be close to one in a couple of days. My town has Best Buy, Target, and Walmart. Assuming I can find what I want... in case I have issues with it, where is the best place to purchase from?? (as far as ease of return, etc). Please advise.

Dah*veed ..... I do not disagree with what you said about the AppleCare+ protection plan as it does state on the website that proof of purchase is required - IF ... You purchase over the phone. Actually, I did not expect to be able to do this over the phone, but as I said I received the paperwork today via email.
I copied this from the website and I'm typing this on my new iPad so it may come out a little distorted but you can read the sentence at the bottom that says it can be done over the phone with proof of purchase. I gave the rep my serial number, confirmed my address and CC details and the deal was done. I even called back later in the day to make absolutely certain that I did in fact purchase the AppleCare+ plan that has the two incidents of accidental damage included for a $49.00 charge. The rep did in fact confirm that I did buy the correct plan that I wanted and I am looking at the printed paperwork confirming the whole thing.
Maybe I just got lucky!
iPad - AppleCare+
Every iPad comes with one year of hardware repair coverage and 90 days of telephone technical support. AppleCare+ for iPad gives you two years of repair coverage and technical support from the original purchase date of your iPad. And it adds coverage for up to two incidents of accidental damage due to handling of your iPad, each subject to a $49 service fee.1
How to get AppleCare+
You must buy AppleCare+ within 30 days of your iPad purchase.
There are three ways to buy:
From the Apple Online Store: When you order the new iPad or iPad 2, you’ll have the option to add AppleCare+ to your cart before you check out.
At an Apple Retail Store (requires a Genius Bar appointment, inspection of the iPad, and proof of purchase).
By calling 1-800-275-2273 (requires proof of purchase).
