Does anyone use a second LCD

I was wandering if anyone is using a second lcd attached to their iMac and if so is the display the same or better?
The display on my dell laptop is real crisp and easy to read.
Now before you get on me for having a dell, it is something I have to use for my work.

I'm using my old Apple 17 inch LCD display for a second monitor. It's truly plug and play...except in my case I had to get two adapters: the mini-DVI to DVI and the ADC to DVI. I believe that Apple no longer puts the ADC plugs on their monitors so that shouldn't be a concern if you're considering a newer Apple monitor/display.
At any rate...you'll need the mini-DVI adapter to use a second monitor. I've had no problems at all and the resolution is beautiful. Others have reported the same results with non-Apple monitors.

    Does anyone use a LaCie external hard drive with their Mac using imovie '09?  I have some questions.

    Are you actually having a problem with the new Lacie drive, or are you just asking is the Lacie drive somehow different from your old G-Drive?
    From a connection standpoint, most Lacie desktop drives have both USB and FireWire connections, just like the G-Drives do.  You would connect and use it the same as a G-Drive.
    Regarding capturing to the external HD, if you are using a camcorder that has FireWire (iLink) connection, it is not advisable to have an external FireWire HD connected to your Mac at the same time as your camcorder; there are often communication conflicts between the camcorder and the hard drive if they are connected at the same time.  The conflicts usually appear as either dropped frames or a complete freeze.   This is more common with Canon miniDV camcorders but I have also seen this behavior with Sony miniDV camcorders.  (The problem is the camcorder's FW implementation, not the hard drive.)  The workaround is to capture to your Mac's internal HD and later copy the captured video to your external HD.

    Wait, Sir Charles.
    1. The two of us have offered you very valuable adivce, which you indicate in both cases you wish to ignore.
    2. You have NOT mentioned any issues in your first post here other than you wish to be social, and now in your second post that you don't know how to add contact and wish me to email you directions. I don't give personal service, as a volunteer I answer questions right here in the threads.You'll just have to suffer through asking questions right here. It's a great forum where thousands of users have gotten help. And often, quite speadily as well.
    3. Your last post is quite rude to a user who has spent lots of time helping users out around here, and quite honestly your words are uncalled for. Your ALL CAPS typing is considered yelling on internet forums such as this. No one likes to be yelled at. My mother taught me about gathering flys with honey rather than vinegar. You might try some honey yourself.

  • Does anyone use Framwork POs for WBS and Asset management.

    We have had issues before with trying to use Framework POs for Assets.  I wanted to know, does anyone out there use the Framework PO for the creation of Assets with charges going to WBS elements?  Do you track service charges as well as material charges that are purchsed for Assets?

    For PO, WBS, Asset frame work below is the sample
    Create WBS which manage AUC
    Example you will create a clinic,
    Create Project - [Project Clinic]
    Create WBS under the Project Clinic - [Clinic Expense]
    Create AUC under WBS Clinic Expense - [Clinic under Construction]
    Let say you purchase Paint for the clinic - create a PO and use account assignment WBS [Clinic Expense] (e.g. 1000 USD)
    Let say you purchase Wood for the clinic - create a PO and use account assignment WBS [Clinic Expense] (e.g. 2000 USD)
    During month end you can settle the amount to AUC (tcocde CJ88 - Settlement type - Automatic)
    All charges to WBS will go to AUC
    Once construction of clinic is finished and is ready to use, you need to settle all the amount from WBS to AUC (through settlement)
    Then create Fixed Asset [Clinic Building]
    Then settele the AUC [Clinic under Construction] charges to Fixed Asset [Clinic Building] through CJ88 settlement type - Final settlement
    Thanks!

  • Cisco 7921 - Does anyone Use EAP-TLS in their VoWLAN Deployments?

    Hi Guys,
    I am looking at making a technology decision, in regards to VoWLAN and authentication.
    For our Data Deployment, we use EAP-TLS with a PKI infrastructure and ACS. The ACS passes fields from the certs to AD for verification.
    Can I do exactly the same for the Voice Deployment?
    Has anyone used EAP-TLS with Voice? Are there any problems? Or should I just go ahead and get some certs minted for the phones, setup some AD accounts and whey hey, its time to party?
    Many thx indeed,
    Ken

    Hi Michael,
    So looking at the deployment guide, this is worded (imho) in a confusing manor? Sorry.
    CCKM is listed under authentication, where i though CCKM is an authentication "key managment" protocol?
    It also says 802.1x authentication with AES encrytion, under the authentication heading?
    It says eap-tls, should this not say 802.1x eap-tls or collapse this with the 802.1x authentication?
    ahh, when it says 802.1x, does that mean 802.1x dynamic wep?
    Would it be correct to say, that I want to use 802.1x eap-tls with tkip and CCKM?
    Sorry, this hurts :)
    Thx,
    Ken
    Wireless Security
    When deploying a wireless LAN, you must provide security. The Cisco Unified Wireless IP Phone 7921G supports the following wireless security features.
    Authentication
    - Cisco Centralized Key Management (CCKM)
    - 802.11i (802.1x authentication + TKIP encryption)
    - 802.11i (802.1x authentication + AES encryption)
    - 802.11i (Pre-Shared key + TKIP encryption)
    - 802.11i (Pre-Shared key + AES encryption)
    - Extensible Authentication Protocol - Flexible Authentication via Secure Tunneling (EAP-FAST)
    - Extensible Authentication Protocol - Transport Layer Security (EAP-TLS)
    - Protected Extensible Authentication Protocol (PEAP)
    - Lightweight Extensible Authentication Protocol (LEAP)
    - Open and Shared Key
    Encryption
    - Advanced Encryption Scheme (AES)
    - Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP) / Message Integrity Check (MIC)
    - 40-bit and 128-bit Wired Equivalent Protocol (WEP)
    Cisco Centralized Key Management (CCKM)
    When using 802.1x type authentication, you should implement CCKM for authentication. 802.1x can introduce delay during roaming due to its requirement for full re-authentication. CCKM centralizes the key management and reduces the number of key exchanges. Also, WPA introduces additional transient keys and can lengthen roaming time. TKIP encryption is recommended when using CCKM for fast roaming as CCKM does not support AES currently.

  • Does anyone use a Celluar Travel Router for wifi connecton?

    Hi!
    I did some further research into this and you can have access to cell phone networks to create a wifi connection for the iPod Touch.
    Does this really do the trick with having constant wifi when you're traveling or on the go?
    Any advice would be great!
    Thank You!

    Yes, you do need to have a cell account and cell data plan for this to work.
    I want to know if anyone uses this feature to create their instant wifi Hotspots?
    Thanks!

  • Does anyone use "Process Type" Mail or similar one?

    Hi there,
    I want to create my own "Process Type" to sending email without sending logs(with create message from Process type it will include entire logs which is too big as email 1M everyday). I know I can create ABAP instead. Just want to know if there is any other way. I tried to copy MAIL to ZMAIL and changed category to Other. So I can use my newly created Process type in process chain. But some how it doesn't work. Does anyone have same experience? Your suggestions are greatly appreciated!

  • Does anyone use a NON_APPLE USB power plug

    I don't always have my laptop with me. I just had a shuffle for my recent birthday and want to know if I can use an ordinary 3 pin plug with USB capability to charge the shuffle. Due to go into hospital so won't have my laptop with me to charge it.
    Else does anyone know how long the charge lasts? Will be away each week day but home weekends. probably won't have it on all day but will use it quite a bit.
    Thanks

    I have several iPods. I've used my apple USB charger and an off-brand USB charger with my Shuffle. No problems.

  • HT1296 Does anyone uses optonline as their email service provider?

    If anyone uses optonline as their email service provider, do you have a problem with your MacBook Pro synching emails with the Optimum server?  For example, when I delete an email from my inbox on my MAC Book, it does not delete the email in the inbox on the server.  I just bought an iPhone:  when everything synch's through iCloud, all the messages from the Optimum server are on my iPhone versus the messages from the inbox on my MacBook. Anyone have any suggestions?  Thanks very much

  • TS3276 PostBox and iCloud - does anyone use pop mail for postbox and icloud? i can't seem to use my MAC pop mail with postbox.

    Apple policy of reseting each time you forget an Account ID or Password makes it impossible for me to keep track of my many accounts on Mail. I decided to use PostBox and it's working great except for one account.  That account is linked to icloud.  I'm not too happy with icloud, in general, but I do want to be able to track my mail on my iphone for that one account (my business account).  It used to be that I could use 2 accounts with one - using an alias.  Now, I can't do that with icloud, nor can I get it linked to PostBox.  Does anyone know what I should do? Am I asking the wrong questions?

    I am now on Chapter 3 & 4 -  Since this is the ONLY message board I can get into,
    & Roger, No, I never had a "mobile me account", if that's a cell phone - wouldn't own one! - IF it was from the Old Tiger mail Ap, I do believe it was discontinued, when they came out with Snow Lion, no? So that's defunct.  FYI I got my first computer in 1991 - DOS, good stuff, easy to fix. My first mac in 2006 Tiger, great stuff, loved it. Then Snowleopard, not sure when, maybe '09? it was just before Lion came out, didn't know the new one would come so soon. & in June 2012, first mac crashed, lost a year "unsaved" data.
    Q # 1. I can't get into My Account - to get into support & any questions! Somehow all my data is messed up, & I've had to change passwords 3 times today every time I'm "rejected" by my account. I seem to have 3 accounts now, each with a different name Password, & Security Questions! & I've been rejected due to: "Incorrect ID name", "Incorrect Password" & because whatever - doesn't" recognize my birth date" / or "my Security question answers" that I chose - all of which I know are correct. AGUH!
    My latest problems:
    1) Can you Unzip iPhotos, uploaded from a USB or External Drive (after my SL crashed)? The dpi for these old ones is about 250 x 360 (88 KB) compared to 2448 x 3264 (2.6 MB) for recent ones.
    - Do you need a program to do this? Some say there's a "free" program, any good? Can unzip be done to many or 1 at a time? Or is there something I haven't found in iPhoto '11, 9.2.1 (Lion)?
    [I now buy new Camera Memory cards & don't delete the photos anymore, since I lost so many.]
    2) Can I combine all 3 of my Apple ID info - or at least delete that 4 year old Email address in my profile? (IF I can ever get in. I wrote a "suggestion" to the Apple folks, who said my new Email was on it, & they'd send me an email - but I never got it, guess it went to the old one?

  • Does ANYONE using lP6 get the option not to import duplicates?

    Not having the opetion to not import duplicates is a serious problem. It worked in iP4, it didn't work in iP5 until I trashed my prefs, but that fix doesn't work in iP6. I know there's a workaround with Image Capture, but I'd prefer that iP6 work at least as well as previous versions without my having to work around a bug.

    ber,
    I did what you had done, and I got the No Duplicates option!
    I am guessing that the reason I did not get the option before might be that the photos that were dupes had been originally imported into iP5, and for whatever reason iP6 couldn't detect them as dupes. The photos I just tested were imported in iP6, and it recognized them as duplicates.
    Thanks for your help.

  • Does anyone use MIDI loops in Logic Pro to compose music?

    Seriously, if anyone out there uses the MIDI loops to compose music in Logic, how the heck do you do it? Especially if you are also using audio loops, it seems almost impossible to me. The chord transpositions that you get from the chord track are not even to the right pitch, and the transposition behavior is different according to whether you drag the loops into the arrange area before or after putting the changes in the Chord track. The signature track is no better, as it doesn't seem to affect audio loops. So how do you get the bass loops etc. to play in the keys you want them to without going through extraordinary contortions? I looked at one of the Logic Pro books, and it said to transpose by using the transpose function in the inspector, but that only lets you transpose by octaves! Do you really go in and edit the loops by hand to transpose each note?
    Any pointers on this would be greatly appreciated.

    Put the mouse pointer on top of the transpose number, which is zero, hold down the left mouse button and drag up or down to transpose by steps. At the beginning of either the getting started or Logic manual there's an explanation of the different types of mouse/key behavior, if you're not used to using Logic it's a good idea to go over these.
    Also, Logic does not always use simplified Mac conventions (thank the stars for that), as a result you have a lot more variety of data input, it varies according to the task at hand.

  • Does anyone use the Asus G751JY-DH72X laptop for editing HD video in Premiere Pro

    I wish to purchase a laptop for field use. The Asus G751JY-DH72X laptop seems to have great specs for HD editing in Premiere Pro (CC 2014).  I wonder if anyone has tried this unit and: 1) Does Mercury Hardware (GPU) acceleration work and 2) Does a Thunderbird array connected to the Thunderbird port work?

    The Asus G751JY-DH72X appears to be the perfect Adobe CC mobile workstation spec wise. I am thinking of purchasing this myself. Adorama seems to have the best prices on the 512SSD, 1TB HHD model. According to the list of Adobe CC supported cards the Nividia GTX980M is officially on that list. I don't know about the array...but everything else is legit. Looking at the specs and add all the reviews...this is an excellent choice for an Adobe Animator/Editor.

  • Does Anyone Use Blender For 3D Video Titling? No It's Not A Food Processor!

    . . . . . . . and if so, can they tell me how to make 3D titles that swivel and rotate etc. and can be put into FCP?
    I downloaded Blender yesterday and after hours of struggling am completely bewildered!
    I am even bewildered by the blender forums. I've posted 2 questions. One received a reply yesterday but I can no longer find it and the one I just posted has immediately disappeared into the ether!
    Getting back to the app . . . . I can put titles in my choice of font on the Blender interface but I can't alter them from the default silver colour and I have no idea how to get them onto video. I don't know where I should be positioning them etc. and there is a whopping cube in the background.
    It's like being able to start a car but then being incapable of driving it anywhere.
    I am completely clueless . . . . and I suspect many others will also be clueless as to what I am rambling on about, but if there is anyone out there who does know what I mean, I would be very grateful for some guidance.
    Incidentally, I have been told that everyone finds it impossible for 6 days, but after 7 days you suddenly become an expert. The trouble is that I won't last that long!

    Thanks Kevin and Iain but I only want to dabble occasionally so there is no way I'm spending any more hard cash.
