Does TM have any real functional advantages over other solutions?
Hi All
Looking at possible network backup solutions. Does TM have any real functional advantages over something like SuperDuper? I'm not really looking for an "archive" solution, which is I think how a lot of people perhaps incorrectly view TM, but just something that will allow me to easily recover from corrupt/crashed system - TM seems rather overkill and complex for that?
Any advice/views appreciated...jeremy

Officially, TM does not work over a network, except via Time Capsule or to another Mac running Leopard on the same local network: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1733
Some of us are able to use a USB drive attached to an Airport Extreme, or a shared drive on a Mac running Leopard or Snow Leopard on the same local network. Some others are using various NAS devices that claim to be TM-compatible, but often with various difficulties.
So if you're set on a network solution, your options with TM are limited.
CarbonCopyCloner does not work to any network destination, and I don't think SD does, either.
Other than that, TM has two main advantages over the "clones:"
Being able to do hourly incremental backups of new and changed items very quickly, it gives you an excellent chance of recovering something that was changed or deleted in error, or that got corrupted. Most other apps, especially CCC and SD, if they're backing-up your entire system, in most cases just aren't practical to run more than once or twice a day.
Second, since every TM backup is, in effect, a full one, you can restore your entire system to the exact state it was in at the time of any backup, even if it was a previous version of Leopard or Snow Leopard. Many folks have, for example, successfully and easily downgraded from SL back to Leopard when they found they had incompatible apps or other problems.

Does anyone have any real answers to what specs the Best Buy version of the U43JC has?
I called Best Buy 1-800 number numerous times and everyone keeps giving me different answers. And being on the phone with them so often I figured out what they do, they go bing.com or google.com and do a search. They have no real facts other than what other websites are saying.
1) Processor: It says I5-450m, but the processor speed states "2.26Ghz" which is the speed of the I5-430m. So, I5-450m or I5-430m?
2) Built in Webcam says on Best Best as being 0.3mp....but every other website that is pre-selling this model says 2.0mp..So, 0.3mp or 2.0mp?
3) There is no mention of built in Bluetooth for the Best Buy model, but other sites selling the U43JC says built in Bluetooth. Does the best Buy model have built in Bluetooth?
4) There is no mention for the U43JC of having WIDI (Intel Wireless Display Technology) but all the other websites selling this model state it having WIDI. Does the U43JC that Best Buy is selling have WIDI?
5) I know Asus offers a 8 cell battery with 4400mah or 5600mah......All the other websites specifically state 8cell 5600mah. Which 8 cell battery does the one Best Buy is selling have?
6) All the other websites mention the U43JC having 2-2.0 USB and 1-3.0 USB, while Best Buy mentions 3-2.0 USB. Does the Best Buy version of the U43JC have 1-3.0 USB?
Lastly what is the difference between a Asus U43JC-BBA7 which is how Best Buy labels it V.S. the Asus U43JC-A1 which the other websites mention it as?--"I called Best Buy 1-800 number numerous times and everyone keeps giving me different answers. And being on the phone with them so often I figured out what they do, they go bing.com or google.com and do a search. They have no real facts other than what other websites are saying."
Only BBYs buyer will have such details on product. They don't answer phones.
---1) Processor: It says I5-450m, but the processor speed states "2.26Ghz" which is the speed of the I5-430m. So, I5-450m or II-430m?"
It's called a "typo", and congratulations...you caught it. You get a cookie now. The unit has the 450M.
---"2) Built in WebMD says on Best Best as being Amp...But every other website that is pre-selling this model says Amp.So, Amp or Amp?"
WOW...that's TWO typos! TWO cookies for you.
3) The BBY unit has no Bluetooth.
The unit is built to spec by BBY corporate buyers. Looks like you're more into the factory model.

Using a dll function that does not have any inputs from a VI
Hello all, I'm very new to Labview, I have wraped a dll library using the LVlib wizard and now I am trying to use it in a project. I have a function that does not take any inputs or return any thing except that a struct is populated with some status information as part of the call. I am able to draw a StartInterface VI because my void startInterface(const char* configFile, struct status_struct* status) takes the location of a configutation file as an input. But I can not figure out how to connect my Call Library Node to my a function vi that does not have any inputs ( void shutdownInterface(struct status_struct* status)).
Note that the status struct is deffined to be only and out put at the creation of the LVLIB.
Thanks, MikeThanks for the responses guys:
I think I am aware of the conotations of inputs and outputs when I created the lvlib I specified the argument struct status_struct* status as only an output instead of the default of input and output.
I do not think that I am doing anything as complex as function callbacks. My immediate goal is to have an executable (I have application builder) with two buttons and two three text fields one text field for the input of the config file, two text-fields for a cstring that is contained in the status struct; one button to start the interface and one button to stop the interface.
This is in all likely hood a case of my self being too dense and missing something fundimental ;-) I just can't figure out how to wire the shut down method after I've configured the call library node. See the attached pictures:

I have acrobat pro on my lap top and recently installed acrobat pro on my Mac Mini, but the text recognition function is not working, does anyone have any advice on how to remedy this problem?
On my laptop when I open up a pdf file and do a search for a particular
text phrase it prompts me to run a character analysis. Whereas on my mac
mini, when I try to engage the same process it just says it couldn't find
the phrase and doesn't even try and run a character analysis. I tried
clicking on the tool bar and the recognize text tab but nothing there seems
to do anything.
In trying to figure out the issue on my own I noticed one thing. I run a
small law firm in St. Louis and I scan in all my files to which are
subsequently emailed to my outlook account where I will save them as pdf's
to their respective folders. On my laptop when I open up an email from my
scanner I see the image of a acrobat document next to the attachment
paperclip symbol. However, when I open up the same email on my mac mini I
notice instead of an acrobat file image it shows a Preview file image (the
program used to open up pdf's before I installed acrobat).
Hope this helps!
Sincerely,
Jonathan McAllister -

Just to clarify what your saying under menu > settings > Connectivity the only option you can see is Bluetooth? There are no other options to select?
Because under the connectivity menu you should be able to Network, WiFi, Bluetooth, USB, Settings, Connection manager, Mobile data tracker, Data Transfer, Video sharing, Admin settings and play via radio.
All the options should be visible on the connectivity menu on a N8 with Nokia Belle installed.
If you find this post helpful, a click upon the white star at bottom would always be appreciated.

I am trying to connect my Macbook pro 2010 to my Samsung HDTV using a mini display port to hdtv cable. Trying to play a slide show in IPhoto but I only get sound with no picture. Does anyone have any suggestions?
I keep saying this over and over, in the hope that people who do a search will find it. Apple cannot possibly test for or be reponsible for the bazillion combinations of adapter, cables, and TV's out there. The only monitors that are 100% guaranteed to work with the MacBook Pro are the Cinema Displays and Thunderbolt Displays, because, they're made by Apple. They're expensive, but they work perfectly.
My guess is that you bought a cheap MDP to HDMI cable, or have a defective one. From my reading of these boards over the past few months, cheap cables have a high failure rate. And the regular priced ones have only a slightly less of one. Try a new one. Make sure you do not damage the Thunderbolt port. -

Okay, I left off a lot of important information...
I'm using two tables
TWDATA

From TWDATA I'm pulling the fields TWDATA.OrderNumber and TWDATA.DisbursementDate
From EVENT I'm pulling the fields EVENT.EventCode and EVENT.CompletedDate
The two tables are linked by OrderNumber. -
I've been in an administrative job at my university, in which I needed to be able to access lots of past email conversations. I ended up saving *everything* religiously, by copying each email or conversation into an "On My Mac" folder on either my home or office machine, flagging it as copied, then unflagging it and moving it to a like folder on the other machine. As a result I'v now got a trillion folders for various aspects of my job, filled with quite a few messages that I probably no longer even need, but they're way too many to go through and delete one by one. Unfortunately, I haven't made much use of the iCloud folders, but I'm so tired of having to essentially manually sync my stored mail in the manner I just described, that I'm thinking of starting to file everything to iCloud folders. The downside of that is that obviously if the internet is down and a given folder wasn't refreshed before it went down, I won't have access to the saved mail.
Moreover, I'm about to step down from the admin post -- within about 6 months a lot of what I saved won't be needed at all, and going forward, I won't need to save nearly the same quantity of messages for later reference. I'd like to come up with some viable "triage" strategies for limiting the mail I do save.
This is really just an open question: Does anyone have any good mail filing and storage techniques that you'd be willing to share? I'm especially interested in criteria you use for what you save and don't save, and where/how you save it.Well, the one set up on exchange 2k3 is now working fine, although no changes were made on either the iPhone or the exchange side, so that's fun, but it still is throwing errors when connecting to the other 2 exchange accounts. The common elements are that both non-functioning exchange accounts are google apps for business accounts. So is one of the ones that's working, by the way. The settings on both accounts are the same as the one that's working, and both worked fine before the 8.3 upgrade. I have no issue accessing both of these accounts on my ipad which is currently on 8.2.x. If it's not the iphone OS at fault, I'm at a loss as to what it could be.

I'm getting a lot of pop up ads. mostly while using Facebook. I'm running Safari on a Macbook Pro running Yosemite. Does anyone have any suggestions for an Ad blocker. I don't see anything in the App store.
I can't swear to it but I don't recall this being a problem pre-Yosemite. I could be wrong. I haven't been real active on Facebook until recently. I see some third party apps out there but am alway wary of non approved software.
Thanks
RonYou may have installed the "VSearch" trojan. Remove it as follows.
Malware is always changing to get around the defenses against it. These instructions are valid as of now, as far as I know. They won't necessarily be valid in the future. Anyone finding this comment a few days or more after it was posted should look for more recent discussions or start a new one.
Back up all data before proceeding.
Step 1
From the Safari menu bar, select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
Uninstall any extensions you don't know you need, including any that have the word "Spigot," "Trovi," or "Conduit" in the description. If in doubt, uninstall all extensions. Do the equivalent for the Firefox and Chrome browsers, if you use either of those.
Reset the home page and default search engine in all the browsers, if it was changed.
Step 2
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
/Library/LaunchAgents/com.vsearch.agent.plist
Right-click or control-click the line and select
Services ▹ Reveal in Finder (or just Reveal)
from the contextual menu.* A folder should open with an item named "com.vsearch.agent.plist" selected. Drag the selected item to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator login password.
Repeat with each of these lines:
/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.vsearch.daemon.plist
/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.vsearch.helper.plist
Restart the computer and empty the Trash. Then delete the following items in the same way:
/Library/Application Support/VSearch
/System/Library/Frameworks/VSearch.framework
~/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/ConduitNPAPIPlugin.plugin
Some of these items may be absent, in which case you'll get a message that the file can't be found. Skip that item and go on to the next one.
The problem may have started when you downloaded and ran an application called "MPlayerX." That's the name of a legitimate free movie player, but the name is also used fraudulently to distribute VSearch. If there is an item with that name in the Applications folder, delete it, and if you wish, replace it with the genuine article from mplayerx.org.
This trojan is often found on illegal websites that traffic in pirated content such as movies. If you, or anyone else who uses the computer, visit such sites and follow prompts to install software, you can expect more of the same, and worse, to follow.
You may be wondering why you didn't get a warning from Gatekeeper about installing software from an unknown developer, as you should have. The reason is that the Internet criminal behind VSearch has a codesigning certificate issued by Apple, which causes Gatekeeper to give the installer a pass. Apple could revoke the certificate, but as of this writing has not done so, even though it's aware of the problem. This failure of oversight has compromised both Gatekeeper and the Developer ID program. You can't rely on Gatekeeper alone to protect you from harmful software.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return. -
Does anybody have any experience on generating SSH key in Labview?
I'm developing a tool in Labview and this tool needs to generate SSH key then copy them out. I don't see a function in Labview that can generate SSH key pairs. I've tried external programs puttygen.exe and ssh-keygen. None of them are ideal solutions. Because puttygen needs mouse and button press interactions (user interface) and ssh-keygen needs cygwin installation.
Does anyone have any better ideas?
Thanks very much!I have another question:
I used ssh-keygen with System Exec.vi. The code works fine on my XP machine. But it doesn't work on windows 7 enterprise machine. It seems that windows 7 has different security settings. But I tried to use different location for the working directory for System Exec.vi and it still wouldn't work.
I've attached a snapshot of my code here. I even tried to just have ssh-keygen in the command line and it didn't work either.
Does anyone have any ideas?
Thanks very much!

Extending view object which does not have any entity object associated with
Dear all
I am interested in extended on of the standard pages VO object in JDeveloper OA extension
the standard page is oracle/apps/pos/supplier/....suppSummaryPG
and one of the view which I am interested to extend is suppSummVO
the problem is that when I copy xml files and java files from apps server to
my local jdevelope folder , I am not able to open that suppSummVO, the changes which
I find from other VO object and this(suppSummVO) object is that, this VO does not have any
Entity Object associated with it and the only query is return on this VO , is it the reason that
I am not able to open it Jdeveloper, but the real issue is that how can I extends this type of VO
in my OAExtension.
Regard
NomanIts the same way of extending VO with EO's or without EO's.
Sometimes if the .class files arn't decompiled we get weird jbo errors. So use cavaj/jad to decompile those Impl.class, RowImpl.class files and keep them in the same folder as vo.xml in myprojects and try extending that VO.
Thanks,

I have yet to find an email server that does not work with Mail.app. Your solution will be to configure its ports and send/receive protocol according to the email server's requirements.
Try the Zimbra support forums. I found this excerpt from a relevant post:
