Concern about a new use for shuffle.... HELP MUCH APRECIATED!

Hi! I recently purchased a shuffle... But i'm using it as the replacement for my good ol' discman for my office's phone system. The thing is: Shuffle's always plugged in through an usb ipod adapter and is contantly playing music and never unplugged... Let's say that this shuffle is a stationary shuffle....
Does anyone know about a potential damage that could happen if the shuffle's used this way?
Any recomendations?
Best Regards!

Have you even been able to get it to play and charge at the same time? I too plan to use it 24/7/52 and need the ability to supply continous power, regardless of how it affects the unit's battery life.

    The passcode you need to enter is the passcode you set on your device. It is the passcode that you enter when you turn on your iPad or awaken it from sleep after and Auto lock.
    If you do not know or remember your password and did not store it somewhere then you will have to restore your device.

  • New Use for iPod

    At the office today, I thought of a great new use for image capable iPods. Use the cover flow concept to view all my business cards. Hear that Apple?

    There would have to be a way for everyone who buys an iPod to scan business cards, for that to be a practical and separate "feature." If you happen to have a way to scan business cards, just add the images to iPhoto or put them all into a folder, and set the iPod to sync with iPhoto or to that folder. I can even do that with my old 4th gen iPod (although the printing may to too small to read on that model).

  • New uses for an "extra" G3 Powerbook

    This may seem like a dumb question, but I have an "extra" G3 bronze keyboard Powerbook with OSX (Panther) running on it and I have no idea what to do with it. I upgraded last year to an iBook which I love, but I just can't seem to part with my first computer. What could I use it for now? I don't want to keep my music on there because it does not have a built in CD-burner like my iBook does. I just wanted to see what other MAC geeks would do if they had an "extra" laptop? Thanks!

    d-i,
    The website is: http://www.evological.com/evocam.html
    I believe a license is $25 and it works on OS 9 or OS X.
    You can do many things with the software and a webcam:
    1. Set up a webcam server -- I open a port on my network (I believe it defaults to 8080) and can view the webcam from anywhere via your IP address. There are many uses for this:
    I live in Illinois & was in Hawaii last week on vacation. I saw a couple of unknown cars in our driveway and called a neighbor -- they had some guests over and were using the driveway to temporarily park a couple cars. This past winter, I called my son at home and asked him to shovel the driveway -- I had to remind him an hour later when I checked and saw it was not done. We also used it when we had a new puppy to check up on her from work during the day when we were all gone.
    2. Motion Sensor: I already explained how I used it to e:mail me a photo when the Fed Ex man delivered a package. This is easy to do. You have a live video window and you use a "sensor" tool to draw any size rectangle on the video window -- you could have the sensor be the entire window or a smaller area (sidewalk, doorway, etc.). You can have multiple sensors in different places. You can also adjust the sensitivity level of how much motion it takes to trigger. You can add text to the video window (Front Window Cam) and add a digital clock so there is a time/date stamp on any photo / video saved.
    3. Events: Once you have it set-up, you can have it do different things if it senses motion: take a photo and e:mail it or save it to hard drive; start recording live video and save it to hard drive; play a sound file when it senses motion (fun if you have your computer hooked up to speakers/stereo). The nice thing with having the ability to e:mail a photo is you could catch someone breaking in -- even if they stole your computer/webcam, a photo of the thief will be in your e:mail in-box.
    We also had some trouble with a neighborhood teenager -- I pointed the camera across the street and set a motion sensor to record whenever there was movement on his driveway. Not sure of the legality of this, but we were concerned about damage to our property.
    I currently run Evocam with a Quickcam Pro 4000 and my PB G3 under OS X. It runs slow with the webcam under OS 9, but I have used an old VHS-C camcorder with an iRez Capsure PCMCIA card and this worked great. I like using the webcam better as it is much smaller (sits on window) and doesn't need a separate power supply. I have also used Evocam on my Powerbook G4 with my iSight webcam.
    Let me know if you have any other questions.

  • New use for Zinc 4?

    If Adobe let's Director wither on the vine, could we convert our .dir movies to Shockwave and create crossplatform projectors with Zinc 4?  I have not used Zinc, so I don't know exactly what its capabilities are.  So, my question is, could Zinc be a viable tool for "rescuing" our existing Director movies if necessary?  Or perhaps it might even be used for creating cross-platform projectors now, if needed?
    Maybe someone with some Zinc experience could enlighten me.  I have 30 titles that I market, and I'm a bit nervous about the way Adobe is treating Director like an unwanted stepchild.
    Thanks.
    Dewey

    The answer to your question is Probably Not. 
    Zinc is just a Flash wrapper.  So, if your Director programs are primarily swfs and you use Director for a few system hooks, then you could use Zinc instead.  If you do not use swfs much, or if you use Director for anything more complicted than file IO (Buddy API stuff) then it would probably not suit your purpose.
    In fact, I think that even in its current condition, Director is a better Flash wrapper than Zinc.  I have used both, and there are very few reasons to use Zinc over Director - even less if you know Director already and don't want to learn a new program.

  • How about some New Forums for JSC?

    I read somewhere that the JSC forum is Sun's highest activity forum. The trouble is, there's a lot of information mixed together.
    Would it be possible to create several forums (or subforums) for JSC? Here's some I'd suggest:
    Help: newbie requests for JSC help (like how do I create a datatable)
    Problems: place to ask for help with technical problems, like DB connectivity, use with a given server, installation problems, etc.
    Bugs: Bugs, deficiencies and workarounds
    Examples/Solutions: place to show nifty tricks that have been found, or how to do something complicated.
    Suggestions: Suggestions for the JSC team
    General: Other stuff not covered above.
    IMHO, breaking the forum into these logical groups would make the forum much more useful. Perhaps the categories above aren't perfect or complete. However, something in this direction would be good.

    In a perfect world, the topics would be sorted into forums. However, these could be left in general, and start with the new categories empty. At least new discussion would be more organized.
    It would also be extremely helpful to move old, obsolete topics to somewhere else, or delete them. I don't now how many times I've begun reading a post only to find it applies to an earlier version of creator, and since then the bug, problem or whatever has been fixed anyway.

  • Concerns about the new EULA.

    Did anyone else notice in the new EULA for appleTV that purchased movies should be 'archived' becuase they may not always be available for download.  One of the reasons I switched to apple TV was to stop having tonnes of DVD cases clutering about.
    Is anyone else concerned about this?  Or did I misread it?

    Apple has always recommended that users backup their content. 
    iCloud is not and has NEVER been touted as a backup for media.  Content is regularly added and removed due to licensing restrictions.
    Why would any user have an issue with backing up their media on their local drives locally?  Certainly a user would not think of not maintaining backups of their pictures and other important documents on their comptuer, so why would media files be any different?

  • Question about the new firmware for Dr4-A?

  • About  jmf  INPUT_BUFFER_NOT_CONSUMED ,waiting for you help!

    Hi,everyone!!
    I am using jmf as a tool to process the video source in my project.I added an h261 encoder as a plug_in and got the successful result.When encoder proessing begined,its output is like below:
    %%%%%% INPUT_BUFFER_NOT_CONSUMED ;
    I searched this problem from jmf api,it says like this:
    The input Buffer chunk was not fully consumed. The plug-in should update the offset + length fields of the Buffer. The plug-in will be called later with the same input Buffer.
    But i really don't know how to update the offset + length fields of the Buffer.Is it a problem that will cause my failure???
    Thank you for you help!!!

    I think you should just ignore that...
    That's a message that is internal to the H261 encoder. If you aren't writing the encoder (which you're not, if you're just using the JMF one), then you don't need to handle the buffering for the encoder. That's more than likely just a log message inside the encoder code...
    So no, I don't hink it will cause your failure...

  • Found a new use for my iPad

    No not as a paper weight I can now watch normal free to air TV on my iPad over my wifi anywhere in range. I bought an Avermedia HD Homefree Duet. You plug your TV antenna into it and connect it to your router via ethernet. The Homefree app is available at the app store. The Duet allows 2 users to connect separately and also comes with software for PC's but not Mac computers. That suited me as I was looking for another use for my beloved iPad. Price $115 Australian.

    Interesting, haven't heard of that in the US but will start looking around...when you say TV antenna, does that include use of cable network feed? Or maybe feed from the cable box to the TV?
    There are only 2 devices I know of that do what I want and that is have the ability to tune in HD TV on the iPad. The other unit I know of is the NetStream. May be worth a look re cable. I love the fact I have another use for my iPad. It is amazing for me in a semi rural area (that requires a fairly substantial rooftop antenna) that would normally require me running TV cables to get TV on computer. This though is not accessible on iPad. For metro areas the Duet does come with a 25db indoor antenna. The iPad makes a great size personal TV. I just hope this helps someone with a similar need

  • Question about extend calendar using scal?  help,help

    recently, we received a mail from sap which saying about extending  calendar using scal;
    I have read sap notes:1529649 , 501670
    and my steps will be:
    1> in our qas system using scal
        change holiday calendar: choose CN China holiday calendar to change and then enter validation from 1995 to 2098(for example)
    2> change factory calendar: choose CN China factory calendar to change and then enter validation from 1995 to 2098(for example)
    3> in scal , choose menu: extras-->update calendar buffer
    4> transport this change to our prd system.
    5> go to scal in prd system to check
    6> update prd system `s calendar buffer in scal
    I do know whether my steps is right?
    I have two questions:
    1> we are a chinese compary, and we use several languages:TRADITIONAL CHINESE , SIMPLIFIED CHINESE and ENGLISH;
         whether i should change other holiday calendar,such as british calendar?
    2> Is there something wrong about my steps?
    thanks a lot.

    Hi,
    You are correct, But You can change it on QAS due to client will not modifiable.
    Goto Developement System and run scal.
    Most important is to change/extend factory calander and save it. Request will be generated as Workbench. Transport it to Production System.

  • New Uses For Our Current Dyno Thermocouple DAQ System

    Hello,
    Currently we are using this setup to collect data in our high temperature dyno.
    SCXI-1001 Chassis
    4 - SCXI-1120 -> SCXI 1320 units
    8 - SCXI-1102 -> SCXI 1303 units
    feeding into a PCI-MIO-16E-4 (PCI-6040E) DAQ system.
    Also available are a SCXI-1000DC chassis, TC and BNC 2095 terminal blocks, and SXCI-1104 multiplexers.
    The sensors we are looking to use have a 4-wire connection consisting of V(excitation),Common Ground, V(output), and V(offset). I would like to know if there is a way we can use the current equipment we have available to provide the 5v excitation source needed, as well as collect the V(output). Any help regarding the appropriate setup or wiring would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance
    -Jason McBride

    Hi BigChief,
    If you're providing an external excitation voltage to your sensors, you should be able to use either the SCXI-1102 or SCXI-1120 module, with their respective terminal block, to perform voltage measurement (provided the signal is within the module's input range). You can wire V(output) and Common ground as input to one of the channels on the terminal block. If the V(offset) is used for zeroing the measurement, you can wire that into a second channel, take the measurement, and subtract that value programmatically. If you're setting up a virtual or global channel, select the measurement type as "voltage" instead of "temperature".
    I hope this helps.
    Thanks,
    Lesley Y.

  • New use for old imac

    I'm considering an upgrade for my iMac G5 (1.6 GHz PPC) to a newer Core 2 Duo, and am wondering if there's some use for the old iMac besides door stop? Specifically, is there a way that I can use the old machine for backup? It has a newer hard drive. Thoughts appreciated.

    You can use it as a monitor for your new mac using an app called ScreenRecycler, or take it apart, throw in a big HD and like the other poster said, use it as a type of home server, or you can sell it, or you can donate it to a company that will refurbish it and send it off to less-fortunate families, or you can make a big shrapnel bomb, or you can.... well you get the idea. I would suggest using it for the monitor though

  • New use for an old G5 iMac?

    Does anyone have any suggestions on a use for an old G5 iMac? 
    We've since upgraded to a new Intel iMacs and MacBook, as well as iPads, etc.  but I'm trying to figure out how to re-purpose this still working if less useful machine?

    PowerPC will not live forever, but it still will live for a long time.
    Lots of people use PowerPC's for office work.

  • I can't get my new (used) iPod shuffle to appear in My Computer or iTunes Devices

    I can't get my used iPod shuffle to appear in My Computer or iTunes Devices.  Any ideas?

    Which iPod shuffle model is it?  This article about syncing the shuffle shows the four types.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1719
    As a test, you can try shutting down (powering off) and disconnecting all USB devices (including hub).  Start it up with only standard keyboard and mouse connected (if it's not a laptop).  Run iTunes.  Connect shuffle to a direct USB port.
