Do you prefer a stand-alone keyboard or a snap-in one, for your IPAD?

Hello all; thanks for reading:
I'd like to buy a keyboard for my Ipad and I am up in the air between the Apple Bluetooth Keyboard and the Logitech Ultrathin Keyboard.
The former seems like it would be easier to use while in bed, as I could propr up the IPAD away from me, while holding the keyboard in my lap.
However, for work-use and when travelling, the ease of snapping the IPAD upright into the Logitech seems like a nice solution too.
I could just use the Logitech "away" from my IPAD as well, but its quite a bit larger and cumbersome to use on its own, as compared to the very small and light Apple one.
Thoughts?

To type this reply, I'm using a Logitech Tablet stand alone bluetooth keyboard that I got on Woot.com for $19.95. I can type much faster than using the onscreen keyboard (that frustrates me to no end). I also like getting my up, down, right and left arrow keys back. It's very useful when using my Apple TV to type in e-mail address, password, etc. It is small, light, and easy to slip in a tote bag with my iPad. I'm a failure at typing on screen...and it takes forever to correct my mistakes; that is, if I catch my mistakes before hitting the Send button.

How do you create a stand alone application using DAQmx when your application SCXI hardware isn't on the computer I am using to create the application?

How do you create a stand alone application using DAQmx when your application SCXI hardware isn't on the computer I am using to create the application? The DAQmx assitant won't allow me to create a task with hardware that isn't in my system.

You will need to have at least the DAQ device in your computer to add the chassis. When you add the chassis, don't auto detect the modules. You will have to add the terminal blocks and tell MAX which SCXI module will be connected to the DAQ device. Just make sure you don't test the chassis, when its not there.
I hope this helps.

Yes. Apple needs to create and maintain those separately and has chosen to charge separately.

How do you deploy a stand alone app/game in java

I have a few questions regarding creating a stand alone app for java.
1) What is the best way to deploy it? how would I create the exe, etc. I've read that you can create executable jars but this doesn't seem like something that would be user friendly
2) Is there a way to deploy the game/app with it's own JVM so the hosts machine doesn't have to have it installed? How would I go about doing this?
3) How would I run the app in full screen? What libraries are available?
Any other advice/comments welcome.

@morgair: There are plenty of good reasons for using Java to develop software, even when you only plan on targeting Windows. As good as Java distribution is there is no way to guarantee that they a) have Java installed and more likely b) have the version you target installed. Telling a user that they need to go to a second website in order to download and install more software is a huge turn off.
Most PC users have no experience with a .jar so when they download it they just don't know what to do (even if all they need to do is double-click just like a .exe). Giving out an executable .jar is another turnoff.

There are some java to native compilers that will turn your java code into a natice .exe that will run on it's own or with a bundled library. However they are either old, buggy and badly supported, or extremely expensive (googling Java native compiler should give you some good results). There are also plenty 'java to exe' pieces of software. Rather then compiling the java code to native code they wrap the .jar up inside a .exe. When you run the .exe it unpacks the .jar and runs it. To the user it looks like a .exe, however it's still just an executable jar and still requires Java to be pre-installed on their machine in order to run (although some can offer custom error messages if Java is not found).
If Java is setup, then executable jars are essentially act the same as exe's. For creating them, if you are using NetBeans then they are already available in the project/dist folder after you build. You can also do it on the command line but I never need to so I don't know how. However as a tutorial [this site looks promising|http://neptune.netcomp.monash.edu.au/javahelp/howto/jar.htm].
I personally use a small .exe which I built using the D programming language. It reads from a text file in the same directory and executes each line in turn. Typically all the text file contains is 'java -jar MyProg.jar'. This way my .jars for the user looks like a .exe.
Instead of a .exe you could also use a .bat. There are also some .bat to .exe converters online, although I haven't tried any of them so use at your own risk.

How would I go about doing this?Yes, you are allowed to redistribute the Sun Java runtime. Just zip up the JRE on your machine and include it with the app/game. You'll also need to ensure that whatever starts the jar uses your unzipped JRE and not the JRE on their machine. The exe I described above also allows this by having the text file contain something like: './my_jre/bin/java -jar MyProg.jar'.
But first you should also take a look at the license restrictions, they should be in the JREs directory. For example you must redistribute the complete JRE which is a problem if your app is just a few megabytes (when zipped the runtime is usually over 30mb). There are probably plenty of topics on this forum which already discuss redistribution of the JRE.

3) How would I run the app in full screen? What libraries are available?If it's an app then it should be approximately:
JFrame frame = new JFrame();
frame.setExtendedState(JFrame.MAXIMIZED_BOTH);or;
JFrame frame = new JFrame();
frame.setExtendedState(frame.getExtendedState() | JFrame.MAXIMIZED_BOTH);However if you want a proper full screen then you need to use the [Full-Screen exclusive mode|http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/extra/fullscreen/exclusivemode.html], approximately:
JFrame frame = new JFrame();
GraphicsEnvironment.getLocalGraphicsEnvironment().getDefaultScreenDevice().setFullScreenWindow( frame );I've also heard plenty of people recommend using java web-start for desktop java apps. Personally I've never used it, but it's something you might want to research.

Hi, I need a stand alone suite of applications, where does one find an early version? Unless??

Hi, I need a stand alone suite of applications, CS or later, preferably later, but one that works well with either a ppc mac or an intel core2duo mac. Does anyone have any suggestions as to where the best place is to purchase an older version that will work? This is unless Adobe has allowed and defined what a year of use is, in such a way that someone who's restricted in the amount of time to use and learn the software, can purchase a years worth of use and updates and have 5yrs to use a defined year's worth of user time and all updates in that year? And once the block of time is used be able to purchase additional blocks of time. It would definitely make a sale with me if Adobe "offered" this, as I have too many responsibility restrictions to be able to learn for an extended time period in one sitting, but I do have a great desire to learn and use this software. If Adobe doesn't offer this, I hope they will in the future.
Any help would be "Greatly" Appreciated.
Thank You,
Randall

Thank you, It figures that that would be the case. Question: Where would the best place be to look for this, and what should I be aware of so as to make sure it is a working copy? I figure it won't be supported being it is old and from another party, but I do want something that "works", and something I can also get the training manuals/dvds for. I wouldn't mind the subscription option if Adobe would package a minimum amount of hours and updates that one could use in a certain length of time, say 3-5 yrs, for those who are lite users who haven't the time to totally dedicate themselves to the use and learning of the software due to their plate being full already. If one used up this block of time within a year, then the normal subscription rules would apply with unlimited use within that subscription year.
Again Thanks for your reply, it is most appreciated.

How do you make a stand-alone app work without seeing a command window...

I'm new to Java so please forgive the very basic question I'm asking. All the apps I've learned how to make so far cause a command window to appear along with the GUI. How do you keep the command window from showing up?

java ExampleApp
I just discovered using the search for this site. I should know better than to make a post without first using the forum's search. It's just that I had been searching the java tutorials already to no avail as well as using a search engine.
According to the forum here, people have said that you need to create a .jar file. I'll need to look into the specifics. Sounds a bit confusing at first. There was also mention of starting the app like so:

I'll go try that now! Any other suggestions you may have will be appreciated!

Can you open itunes in 2 windows? One for your music and 1 for Itunes store

I want to open iTunes in 2 windows. One showing my current music and one showing the iTunes store. Sometimes I will accidentally download a song that I already have.

The option to open in a new window seems to have disappeared in the latest iTunes.
You could leave feedback for Apple about it via the help menu.

Can you have multiple users for your ipad

can you have multiple users on your iPad

We do. We each sign in our out with our own Apple ID's and we can share the same iPad that way.

HT201304 If you set restrictions to on for your ipad or iphone & you set the password restriction to immediately for in-app purchases will it ask you for your password every time you make a purchase over a certain time period or just the first time you us

I am setting restrictions on my iphone and my ipad for my four year old son as he somehow purchased an app for $99 unbeknowst to me.
Does anyone know if you set your restrictions to ON, there is a setting that is called "Require Password" and there are two choices to choose from
"immediately" or "15 minutes". What I want to know is if my son asks me to purchase an app that costs $1 and I let him purchase it. Be entering my passcode
will it not ask him for any future purchases or an in-app purchase where they tend to rip you off. I want to ensure that it asks for a password every single time anything is purchased whether it is an in-app purchase or an app. I am unsure what the difference is between choosing immediately or 15 minutes on this specific Restrictions setting. Thank you.

Settings>General>Restrictions>Allowed Content>In-App Purchases>Off. Then: Settings>General>Restrictions>Allowed Content>Require Password...set this to "Immediately".
Doing the above will accomplish what you want.

Help needed in Authenticating Users via A Stand-Alone Web_Application

Hi all,
I've just begun to explore the Human Workflow Services in the Oracle SOA Suite...
I want to create a BPEL Process with a Human Workflow involving 2 users say, P1 & P2 ( which i have configured to be in the default "realm", say..)
Could Anyone please help me in the Steps to be followed to implement a Stand-Alone Web-Application (or a Web-Service for that matter) that i can use to Authenticate P1 & P2...!
It's Just like the WorkList Application...but i'm stuck with issues of HOW to Use the IWorkflowContext interface in an External web-application...say deployed on TomCat..?!?
Once P1 or P2 logs-in...i then plan to show them their tasks (like the WorkList)...& then try & Invoke/trigger a Human task by making a call to the WebService representing the BPEL process...!
Awaiting a Speedy guidance from Some one...
[I'm wondering if i can develope some OTHER kind of a UI for a Human Workflow...that's Why..?! :)]
Thanks in advance...

I create soft links via ln -s to the environment scripts:
lrwxrwxrwx 1 oracle dba 43 2005-02-10 20:29 vis9.env -> /lv03/oracle/vis9db/9.2.0/vis9_socrates.env
lrwxrwxrwx 1 applmgr appl 33 2005-02-10 20:27 vis9.env -> /lv03/oracle/vis9appl/APPSORA.env
So in oracle user home directory, I type ln -s /lv03/oracle/vis9db/9.2.0/vis9_socrates.env vis9.env
Then just type . vis9.env to take on the database environment as the oracle user.
In the applmgr home directory, I type ln -s /lv03/oracle/vis9appl/APPSORA.env vis9.env
Then just type . vis9.env as applmgr, to assume the applications environment. You will need to be in this environment to start/stop the applications.
cd to $OAD_TOP/admin/scripts/*
to stop:
./adstpall.sh apps/apps
to start:
./adstrtal.sh apps/apps

Error building stand alone application, with LV.7.01

Hi GardW
All comm. problem are handeled.
The problem was based on the destinations for the .VI's.
Labview 7.1 isn't so got to manage these. It's something the user got to be carefully about.
Allmost solved. But now can't get the default 'labview Icon' to my finnished Application. You know... when you make a stand alone application..
then somewhere under the building process... you can choose if you want your own Icon added as the application starter icon! If you don't choose any.. Labview makes the Labview Icon as your application starter Icon.
And that is my problem now. Any ideas???
Thanks for trying to help , i appriceate it !!

Where can I find the link to download the upgrade from 5 to Lightroom 6 (stand alone) version?

Where can I find the link to download the upgrade from 5 to Lightroom 6 (stand alone) version?

Just to be clear for others who might read this thread: There is a free trial available for both CC and standalone (perpetual license) customers. The free trial for both sets of customers is called "CC"; but if at the end of the trial you want to convert to a standalone (perpetual) license, it's just as easy as with previous versions. You pay $149 ($79 if upgrading), get a license key, and enter the key into the free trial.

Best codec for out to stand alone HD video playable through VLC on PC

I finished a wedding in France recorded in HD on a Sony XD CAM EX-1
I am editing in Final Cut 6.0.6
I had photos from Photoshop CS4 imported into the film and did not
interlace them. They were accepted into the timeline with the Sony footage: XD Cam EX 1080i 50 35mbs VBR.
I would like to deliver an uncompresssed version on a hard drive playable on VLC through a PC. I would also like to see if I can compress this half hour and put it on a DVD?
Final cut and Compressor had trouble with this footage to make the Quicktime
stand alone video and a 39 Program stream.mpeg
When I did get a successful copy_ they will not copy to an external Hard Drive_ it reads disc error.
Is this because of the mix of interlaced and non interlaced? Should I go back
and interlace all the photos and try again???
What is the best codec to export a full res from Final Cut? ( Quicktime, which ProRes??)
and if I try to put the half hour on a dvd not blue ray ... which codec is best? MPEG2?
Thanks very much,
Bill Phipps

Hi Kevin,
Thanks for your input. I shot the wedding in France in PAL on the Sony EX1 using
XD Cam EX 1080i 50 35mbs VBR. And want to deliver to bride and groom
a full HD copy on a hard drive to be played on a pc using VLC software.
I was able to load my foootage and Sony allows me to select this in Final Cut
as a setting when I edit. I imported some
still photos from Photoshop and these are not interlaced. Something I am
now concerned about. I could easily interlace them, however, I was thinking
it would be better to de-interlace the video footage instead as everyone
viewing the film would do so on a pc.
I went on Creative Cow and have gotten a thread
from Creative Cow which tells me:
Re: To deinterlace,or not to deinterlace
by Ed Dooley on Jan 8, 2009 at 11:01:35 am
Not necessarily true. Yes you'll lose the resolution if you use the simple de-interlace filter in FCP (and many other programs). If, however, you use Frame Controls in Compressor (do a search of this forum and you'll find lots of instructions), you do not lose res, the fields get blended. There are 3rd party products that do the same thing (Nattress has one).
Having said all that, I wouldn't deinterlace unless you need to (like for the web for example), the program's going out to TV? Leave it interlaced.
Ed
I at the moment cannot find where Frame Controls in Compressor and saved my project just
before my last step of using the Final Cut Pro de-interlace filter on all of the HD Pal footage.
I had to try 3 times to make a stand alone Quick Time which normally goes smoothly for me, so
I started to wonder if the interlaced video with non-interlaced photos was the problem?
The stand alone Quick Time and the MPEG-2 both gave me trouble and I got an error when
trying to copy them to a drive that was formatted in the only cross platform format I know
being Fat 32. It is a 7200 rpm drive.
I got an answer from Creative Cow on this where the person advised me to convert the file
to Pro Res.
I would appreciate any input.
Thanks for your time and attention.

Stand-alone DFS Share - Folder targets - wrong credentials

Hi all
I am currently setting up a stand-alone DFS root with some Folder targets on different servers.
All server are Windows 2012 R2 with all available patches.
I use the stand-alone DFS because many users will access it with non domain computers.
I changed the DFS to FQDN and i can reach it without any problems. But as soon as i click to a folder target i get the message that i use the wrong logon name or password.
On the server that host this folder target i can see that the client want to logon with the local username and credentials. What of course does not work.
What must i do, that the client use the same credentials for connecting to the folder target server as connecting to the DFS share? And it must be done on the server side because i have no control over the clients. Must i do a credential delegation between
the DFS Share Server and the folder target server?
Thanks for any hint
JBAB

Hi,
If they are accessing the shares using NetBIOS name from non-domain workstation, it will use the logged on account. If you access the stand-alone DFS share by using FQDN from non-domain workstation, it will prompt for credentials and should use the domain’s
credentials.
For more detailed information, please refer to the thread below:
DFS share across Domains will not Authenticate properly with non-domain workstation
