ERD - i'm not sure i understand
i'm looking at a simple model in Bachman notation. and i'm not sure how is the optionality on the parent in 1:N relation is translated into Relational diagram.
Example:
drop 2 entities A and B. create to attributes marking them PK .
drop 1:N, mark parent optional and child mandatory.
generate relational.
go back to logical, mark parent end as mandatory. engineer to relational - i can't find any changes...
It seems that optionality on the parent's end has no effect on the generated relational diagram or ddl scripts.
I also not clear why "identified" can't have optional "target".
Here is an example :http://www.informit.com/articles/article.aspx?p=31475&seqNum=4 ( see image 1.20)
*/ - i understood this part of the question :)
Please advise.
Andrew

Philip,
the more i'm "playing" with "identifying" and "dominant role" the more i'm convinced that they are broken.
Here is another example:
2 entities, each has a PK.
drop 1:1 between them. Make it "mand" on both ends - it correctly puts PKs from each of the entities to the opposite entity as FK.
Select "Dominant role" -> entity 2 . It updates correctly by removing the FK from the entity 1.
Now, a side note - i think i already said that application doesn't update the data type in the FK if i change it in the PK. I have to click on the attribute and update it manually.
Another annoyance that i came across - i have to manually go over changes in the "engineer" dialog and confirm that they should be propagated - it's ok if i make a few, but if i'm doing a lot of them? -very inconvenient.
The functionality of "apply" button - remains the mystery to me....
All right now i'm looking @ the relational diagram - the notation shows 1:N. Well, that's "interesting". Didn't i just say 1:1 (mand) in ER?
Back to ER: relation is changed to 1:1, dominant - none, on child's end - optional. engineer to rel. Come back switch optional to mand on child's end - engineer - no changes in relational...
I think the DDL should include the unique index to support this...
Also, if you leave dominant selected ( say entity_1) and then change the optionality/cardinality in such a way that it will disallow you to select the dominant role - the relational diagram still takes into account the selection made in the dominant role.
I spent about 4 days playing with this dialog alone. I'm very frustrated with inconsistencies and the amount of bugs. i don't think that this build can and should be called "Release".
For sure, I won't recommend this product for purchase, which is an unfortunate conclusion, since i grew to like the simplicity and how straightforward ( comparing to ERWIN) you architecture things.
I hope that either help will be updated to explain all intricacies ( i may not have a good and clear understanding of how you architect things ) or the bug fixes rolled out ASAP.
I probably missed the url to the site with the changelog....
I would like to see development cycle to be made shorter...
I encourage your PM to communicate to your project sponsor the immediate need for the actual testers. Using end-users in this role - won't get this project far.
I hope i didn't offend dev team and you, Philip - you have been very helpful with your answers in this and all other questions that i had.
Sincerely,
Andrew
P.S. As for optionality on the paren'ts end - i think that it maybe implemented by use of the triggers. The dialog ( definition of relation ) has to be extended to allow the selection of update/delete functionality. Yes, i understand we can argue this, but in my experience - once i defined the relation in logical, i proceed to clarify all aspects of the behavior of the relation. Leaving it to "later" seems like a logical approach, but in practice - not a good idea.
P.P.S The forward engineer of the supertype/subtype - i failed to notice the strategy selection - do i want to rollup, roll down or "leave it as is ". I might missed it though.

Z87 g45 gaming...raid 0 and an ssd. Not sure i understand
I have been reading up this while my part are on a ups truck somewhere. Not sure i understand.
I realize that for the ssd the Sata needs to be set to achi before I install windows. Then Install windows 7 pro on the ssd.
Then I am lost. I bought this board because of the feature of inboard raid setup. Maybe all boards have this? This is all new to me. Trying to learn.
If the Sata is set to achi, will that screw up the raid?
Planned on raid 0 with two WD 1tb blue drives.
I read the manual, but didnt make sense.
Will this show up as ONE drive +\- 2tb in My Computer?Quote from: Goodteacher on 04-September-13, 11:51:05

Nope. You Should set your MB SATA controller to RAID otherwise your OS dont know how to control it if you turn it to RAID mode after you have installed it in AHCI mode.
- In RAID mode it controls drives at RAID array(s), like they are set (RAID 0,1,5,6,10,...) and those that arent in any RAID array it controls like AHCI and so on OS installation it installs drivers and register for it like so.
- In AHCI mode it controls all drives like AHCI and so on OS installation it installs drivers and register for it like so.
Edit: So easyes thing is to set your SATA controller in RAID mode and install your OS thatway. Because, then you never have to worry about it as it has controllers to hole thing.
- But if you Install OS (Windows) in AHCI it wont have correct registery or drivers for that same controller if you someday want to use other drives in any RAID and so you would get BSOD on loading/starting screen.
Quote
If the Sata is set to achi, will that screw up the raid?
Nope it wont screw already existing RAID array, choose RAID to that controller again and you have your RAID array back. That is if you havent edit those drives in anyway.
Example: setting SATA controller back to AHCI is only way to upgrade drives Firmware if one is needed, as that software need to see the single drive in that array to do it.
Edit2: Seeing problem is on drives that are in RAID array and those that arent set in any RAID 0 array or so, should get thrue FW update just fine (there can be some exceptions on here) .
Quote

Yes, on your setup, that SSD would show as one drive and that RAID array as one drive. So you would see 2 drives where choose your os drive if you have them already setuped before OS install.
- Every drive you add to RAID 0 array adds space without losing it and allso you get more speed after everey add to point where you get limits of cotrollers speed. That is, if you get there before you have populated all ports.
- Every drive you add to RAID 1 array would add more secure of your data, but you would get only the space to use that your smallest drive have as all drives have 1 to 1 copy of every file.
P.s. when you install the Windows I recormend to have only that drive installed where you want your sytem be in! or your files can be stripped in every drive and then if one drive fail you may get weard BSOD's that are hard to get to!
Most likely this mess happends when one of the drives has already have OS in it on onetime of its life (formating the drives wont make difference).
Edit3: i personaly have used RAID 0 years and never have hade a problems. But if one of those drives fail, then i lose all my data on that RAID 0 array and thats why i go with oldsaying from the time when PCs start to make in the homes "Allways backup your files ! " -
Hi there, I am a new TM user, almost...
After reading a few previous posts I find the following advise:
"I think that TM is a great concept and is really good for day to day backing up. But, I would not be without a clone of my internal on an external to serve as an almost fail-safe device, a file backup medium, a medium for restoring after an erase and install of my internal, and a very reliable system restoration mechanism."
My questions are the following:
1) is it better to have separate disks for clone and backup with TM ? I was intending to use the same one.
2) if I understand well the way TM works, it will not store my files but rather keep track of my HD organization. What happens when a file is wiped off (voluntarily) form the source HD ? Is it going to be removed from the backup on the next time TM is going to proceed ?
3) is there a way to backup AND store with TM ? or should manually store copies of my files and use TM for actual bacup of my main source HD ?
Sorry if these questions were already posted and may be answered...I had a serious look but did not find straight answers.
Thanks in advance

Neither would I. The main reason being that clones are bootable and TM is not. That means if you get into serious trouble with your system, you could just switch over to the clone and keep on working, then fix it when you have the chance. Or use your clone to restore the system.
My questions are the following:
1) is it better to have separate disks for clone and backup with TM ? I was intending to use the same one.
Yes, it always better to have separate disks, in case one fails. But it's not necessary if you have a large enough drive and you put great trust in it
2) if I understand well the way TM works, it will not store my files but rather keep track of my HD organization. What happens when a file is wiped off (voluntarily) form the source HD ? Is it going to be removed from the backup on the next time TM is going to proceed ?
Yes, it will be removed from that TM backup and backups going forward but not from the backups it has already made.
3) is there a way to backup AND store with TM ? or should manually store copies of my files and use TM for actual bacup of my main source HD ?
No, there's no need for that. That's what TM will do and your clone, if you keep it up to date. You should choose to backup your entire HD (In TM you will want to exclude the backup volume(s)

Not sure I understand time zone support
Let's say I live in Paris, but I have appointments next week in Washington DC. Can someone walk me through the settings I should use to make this work? I will want to enter the correct time dor the Washington appointment even though I'm currently in Paris I had time zone support "off," but when I made all my Paris appointments (while I was in DC), they're now 6 hours off.

Andrew,
you might be suffering from _*wireless interference*_.
perhaps one of your neighbor's wireless networks is interfering with yours. download iStumbler (free) or AirRadar (it has a trial period) and note the channels other networks in your vicinity are broadcasting on. *change the channel(s) of your network as far away as possible from those*.
note there may be hidden (closed) networks around that these apps won't pick up. however, KisMac will be able to. be aware, though, that in some countries the use of KisMac may not be legal !

Virtual Copies - I'm not sure I understand what they do for me.
I'm trying to use collections and virtual copies. What good do they do, if I can't crop each virtual copy to a different size?
I'm using the original raw file to create the new collection and virtual copy. I assumed that the flexibility of this tool was to enable me to "finish" images in different ways.
I'd thought that I could crop abc.nef to both 5x7 and 8x10. Add them to their respective collection and then export that collection for the finish work in Photoshop. This doesn't seem to be the case.
Am I expecting something that isn't in the product?
Thanks!
KittieThat is more or less what I did. One Raw, two VCs. Raw untouched, Each VC with a different crop and each with a different develop preset. All remained different on Export.
If a VC is made of a VC it will copy the settings of that VC. If you want to change the setting sof this VC (of a VC) you need to rest it first, so it is like the original raw.

Making sure I understand release/retain correctly
Let's say I do the following (foo starts out as some object):
[foo release];
// STUFF with foo
[foo retain];
As long as I'm not re-assigning foo, at the end of this I'll still have the same foo, right? I'm not risking losing foo during the //STUFF am I?
I guess I'm making sure that my understanding of release is correct. If I release foo, it doesn't actually go away until all handles on it are gone. In other words, foo would have to be assigned to some other object in the //STUFF, or foo would have to go out of scope in the //STUFF (and presumably have a new foo created) in order for the actual original foo object to be deleted, right?
Ok, edit for motivation, because that's kind of a dumb thing to want to do, right?
The reason I want to do this is that lets say I have the following switch statement:
switch (test)
case 1:
foo = [A alloc];
[foo inita];
break;
case 2:
foo = [B alloc];
[foo initb];
break;
case 3:
[foo setupc];
break;
case 4:
f = [D alloc];
[foo initd];
break;
It makes sense to release foo before the switch and retain it at then end. EXCEPT for case 3. So, I was thinking that if was safe to do what I proposed, it might make the code simpler.
Of course I can just put a release/retain pair around each alloc/init, but that's a lot of replicated code...
A [foo autorelease] and then the retain might just do the trick.

There is no way to tell. If the retain count of foo was one just before the release, then all bets are off.
I guess I'm making sure that my understanding of release is correct. If I release foo, it doesn't actually go away until all handles on it are gone.
I'm not sure I understand your understanding. I wouldn't use a term like "handle" since that has a specific meaning that is different than "retain count". If you replace "handle" with "retain count", then you are correct.
In other words, foo would have to be assigned to some other object in the //STUFF, or foo would have to go out of scope in the //STUFF (and presumably have a new foo created) in order for the actual original foo object to be deleted, right?
I'm not sure what you are saying. Objective-C is not C++. A variable going out of scope means nothing in Objective-C. It isn't that complex. It keeps track of the number of times "retain" is called on the object (including the original, implicit "retain"). When the number of releases matches the number of retains, then the object is deallocated.
Ok, edit for motivation, because that's kind of a dumb thing to want to do, right?

You don't want to do that. Alloc-init is a set of operations. You can't spit them up. The object that "alloc" returns may not necessarily be the same object that "init" returns. "Alloc" may just return a global proxy object to do something more clever during the init. -
Hi, I have a problem with getting my apple Id working for me. It's been 2 months since it happened and Apple failed to act. I can tell my story proerly, but am not sure, you guys can help, so I just copy my message to them today, I am trying to get it across all the places around to pay their attention. This is a desperate move, so if you are not the right people to help me to get my message accross, may be you can advise where can I go.
Thank you, and sorry for the language.
Vitas Dijokas
I am sorry to say that, but your security makes my life miserable – it’s been 2 months since my Apple ID account got stuck, and since then I cannot update 37 applications (to date), i.e. most of my applications. Half of them I bought. I also paid for iCloud, and it is not working. I paid money and I am stuck with old applications and no iCloud. Your security *****. Your service ***** too. It took your service 1 month to finally understand why this happened to me, and it took me tens of emails to you and 3 hours of telephone conversation to find out the reason for my problem. And the problem is still not fixed. NOT FIXED. You just leave your customer – the one who paid you money and spent so much time with you trying to help you help me – and nothing. You tell me: “Vitas, Stick your stinky iphone in your *** and enjoy life, we do not care!” *************.
It is ******* outrageous, and you should know that, guys. Get into the ******* database and correct the bug. Get someone in the partners-telephone carriers company (it is Orange as carreer and Cellcom as seller of the phone) authorized to Identify me in personal encounter in one of the branches in Israel (where I live) and make sure it is really me, and get the ******* system accept my password and let me use my phone.
Otherwise **** off. None of my friends will get my advise to buy an iphone or any of apple products. And I think you should be very attentive to cases like this, guys. Do your work for the money we pay, or disappear. There are many others eager to take your place, and if the problem is not fixed I will eventually go to the others. My patience is lost, and as soon as I can afford another phone I will change it. AND I WILL TRY TO GIVE BAAAAAD PUBLICITY TO APPLE – I am threatening here, so ACT NOW.
Vitas DijokasWell, it seems waiting is not my strong suit..! I renamed a javascript file called recovery to sessionstore. This file was in the folder sessionstore-backups I had copied from mozilla 3 days ago, when my tabs were still in place. I replaced the sessionstore in mozilla's default folder with the renamed file and then started mozilla. And the tabs reappeared as they were 3 days ago!
So there goes the tab problem. But again when I started mozilla the window saying "a script has stopped responding" appeared, this time the script being: chrome//browser/contenttabbrowser.xml2542
If someone knows how to fix this and make firefox launch normally, please reply! Thank you -
I have a 2nd generation Ipod.
I have it connected to my computer and see (my name) ipod on my screen.
Everytime I try to add a new song to the Ipod, this message comes up and I am not sure what to do:
The Ipod, (my name) is synced with another ITunes library on A74F65. Do you want to erase this Ipod and sync with this ITunes Library?
An Ipod can be synced with only one ITunes library at a time. Erasing and syncing replaces the contents of this IPod with the contents of this ITunes library.
Then it asks me if I want to delete and sync.
I am not sure what to do for fear of erasing everything I have put on my Ipod.
I would appreciate if someone could help me out.If I understand you correctly, you are trying to use iTunes to play the Music in your iPod but which is not in your itunes library. I don't think Apple design iTunes for use in your way. As to put and play music in iPod, the music has to be in iTunes first, so you play music in the iTunes music Library. the window with Ipod music is just to show you which music are already in the Ipod, in case you want to Manually Manage your huge music library.
Here is the iPod/iTunes manual from the Apple Support Site.

Have A NICE DAY! -
I want a macbook,i really do. But its getting closer and closer to the time that im planning on buying one, and im not sure if i should get one yet. Im a sophmore in highschool, and i need a computer for highschool. I know im going to end up getting some bias answers but--Should i get a macbook now, or should i get some other computer? The computer that im going to get is going to have to last from now till--hopefully--the end of collage. So is there another computer that i should get, and get a mac sometime in the future? maybe even before collage and just have some cheap thing for highschool. I just want your opinions, im not trying to starts some kind of mac v. not mac arguement. I just didnt know where a good place to ask would be so i decided to ask here. Thanks Alot.
I used both Mac and PCs during college.
As a recent graduate, it was very important that I paid attention to my major and class requirements. Several classes I had required Internet Explorer, MS Project, and Visio.
At the time the best choice for me was a PC. However, as a owner of a MacBook, I now dual boot and have the best of both worlds. However, dual booting does require a Windows XP Pro "SP2" disc.
*Getting Windows XP*
Around college you should not have a problem getting this. A single XP license actually allows you to install the OS on (1) PC and (1) Notebook. Finding another copy shouldn't be that difficult. And if worse comes to worse, you just call Microsoft (some place in India) and activate the copy over the phone. Just tell them the copy is on one PC to make it a quick phone call, they can't understand much more let alone any explanation of the license and if it was uninstalled off another computer.
*Word Processor*
I use Word 2004 for Mac. It functions well, but I feel Word 2003 is still better.
*School Software*
I would also check with your school and see what software you get with your tuition. Some schools just give out AntiVirus crap, others provide entire Office Suites. So if you are going for broke, keeping software cost in your plan is a good idea.
*Final Opinion*
If it were me, I would go with the MacBook. Because I know how to hunt for software, I don't figure it paying for any. The MacBook is actually a very competitive price. Since Apple provides the option to run Windows, why not get a MacBook to take advantage of both OS X and Windows environments. -
To add to my original question: I had a 1st generation ipad and 32GB was more than enough storage now I'm having trouble making movies, adding media, etc. I have bought another 15GB of storage on I cloud. Can I put all of my apps on i cloud?
I'm going to be taking an overseas flight and wanted to rent a bunch of movies but I'm not sure how to do that.
I would be grateful for any help
sherrislpTo answer your question, you could remove your apps and then download them again as needed. Your purchased apps are part of what is stored in iCloud and purchased apps do not count against the allotment anyway - As far as I know.
You would want to backup to iCloud before you delete the apps. If it were me, I would also back up and sync with iTunes - I still use iTunes and I back up to both iCloud and iTunes.
The suggestion that James made would be OK for bringing the movies with you on the trip .... But you need to be able to use WiFi in order to use the device and the way that I read your question, you want to download movies to watch on the flight. So that will not work on the airline flight. It would store the content for later viewing but won't work on the flight. That is my understanding of the GoFlex drive, but you would have to investigate it further.

Flash question...not sure which section to post in...please help the n00b...
Background: I am a designer (Illustrator/Photoshop) being thrust into the position of creating e-learning materials. I have managed to teach myself the infinitely irritating P.O.S. (piece of software) called Captivate, but am still pretty much useless in Flash.
I have a project that a former designer created a year or two back. It appears to have been done wholly in Flash, though Captivate may have been involved (not sure why it would have, but I don't know enough about what I'm looking at to be sure). She is no longer with the company, so I can't ask her directly, but I am hoping someone can help me here. The project is essentially Jeopardy, as in the game show. The design is such that it is a static screen (identical to the Jeopardy screen), wherein a user mouse-clicks a value in a category (e.g. Forms for 200), and a window (not an actual browser window, but a flash element) opens over top of the main screen, displaying the question and giving a list of selectable answers (typically multiple choice). Correct and incorrect answers are added or subtracted from the score at bottom. It seems relatively straight-forward (and I'd be happy to post all materials here if that would help anyone answer my question). What I need to do is change these categories/questions to update this material to make it concurrent with a new training course. I am hoping I can do this with the materials I have at hand from the previous designer- ideally, update the text file (I think I can follow the formatting to understand how to update questions/answers/correct answers/etc) and then "plug it in" to this framework...but I don't know. I'm at a loss.
The outputted Flash file (of no functional use to me, I believe) (.swf)
The Flash file that contains the framework (this has all "0000" for scores, "Heading" for headings...aka nothing is populated in this framework) (.fla)
The outputted html file
A .txt file containing all questions, headings, and values that would populate the framework (example below)
"&heading1=Banner Forms&
&heading2=Tricks of the Trade&
&heading3=Banner Speak&
&heading4=Surprise!&
&points1=1000&
&points2=2000&
&points3=3000&
&points4=4000&
&points5=5000&
&question1_1=What form do you use to view a Registrar hold?&
&answer1_1A=TSIAUTH&
&answer1_1B=SOAHOLD&
&answer1_1C=SGASTDN&
&answer1_1D=SHADEGR&
&correctAnswer1_1=B&"
It seems that this text file would be imported into the open framework in Flash, but I do not know the first thing about doing any of this. I will eventually be taking some Flash courses, but this project has a much tighter deadline than that.
Can anyone give me any insight into how to proceed? Please let me know if I should upload these files to link here, if it will help anyone to figure out how this works.
I apologize for what I imagine is a horribly simple question, but I am truly blind with regards to this material.
Admins, I apologize if this is not posted in the correct area.
Thanks ahead of time for any possible help.NEAT!
Hey guy, I got your answer for you. Or should I say hey "IDIOTA".
You see, that text file is read by the HTML when you access it. As in, there is no "importing" to be done. Simply update the text file as necessary to reflect the categories/questions/answers/correct answers, save changes, and that is that! Provided that you keep the text file in the same directory as the .fla and the html (which you obviously MUST do, or else the Jeopardy screen will show all blanks), you will be good to go! All eagles! All aces! Whatever the phrase is.
Anyway, hope this helps, chump. Any other dumb questions? -
I have read some posts about changing the permissions in the iTunes folder, but not quite sure I understand. Which files should be granted read and write access? Am I in danger of doing further damage to my iTunes folder?
Okay i just figured this out and am willing to help. In finder, go to your Itunes media folder, wherever it is located, there are several files in it, (music, movies, podcasts, mobile aplications, ect...) you should find a folder that is labeled "downloads", right click it and choose "get info". at the bottom of the popup window, theres a section labeled "sharing and permissions" expand it. make sure all the users there read "read & write" close the popup window and make sure it saves. you should have no more problems. If the problem still persists, make sure the folders that are before the "downloads" folder have permission as well. If it STILL persists, exit itunes, delete the "downloads" folder, and restart itunes. Hope I helped!

I'm not sure if I am writing this in the correct area (this is my second attempt at posting a question), but I have a comment about a recent store experience in Sandusky, OH. I am not a current Verizon customer, but I was visiting friends and we had to go to the store to get something taken care of. First off, allow me to compliment the nice, new store. Boy, its changed over the past few years ago when I was in last. My comment is mostly directed to one specific employee. When we entered the store, we were "welcomed" by a sloppy dressed gentlemen (his clothes were probably two sizes two small), which really struck me as unusual because every other employee in the store was dressed really "casual" with nice sporty clothing and red shoes. Either way, after being entered into the computer, the gentlemen told me to wander around or have a seat in the back and someone would be with us soon. As soon as we walked away from the door, the gentlemen handed his "duty" off to another employee who took over welcoming people coming in. For whatever reason, I felt glued to him as he stood out to me. After leaving the door, he immediately went to the back of the room, hunched over a cabinet, where he stood for the next 30+ minutes playing on his phone, frowning and not speaking to anyone around him. Again, I found this unusual because everyone else was overly friendly and smiling. I finally decided to walk by and see what he was doing. It appeared that he was texting someone. He paid no attention to me whatsoever as I walked by, just continued to frown and text on his phone. I did take not of his name tag for future reference. His name was Justin. I am assuming he's the manager of the location as he was just standing around while everyone else worked. I do understand that managers aren't necessarily doing the "dirty work" of the employees, but he could have at least found some better fitting clothing (I find it hard to believe Verizon doesn't supply it), been a little friendly, pretended to be busy, and not been texting the entire time we were there. Again, the store was great, the other employees were very helpful, but the manager seemed to be doing is own little thing and it didn't put off a good image for the rest of the store.

Not sure which way to go for transfer.....
First; let me say that I did search for the answer to this, but I'm not sure which way to go with a lot of the answers. I'm sorry I'm asking this question for the umpteenth time. Yes; I'm one of those that understands enough about computers to make me dangerous...
Our computers are set up on a home network. Before I got my iPod last year, we ripped all our CDs and saved them on a completely separate external drive named "M" (for music), so all 3 computers could have access to the information on the M drive.
I get my pod & have the office computer set up to be the 'main' iTunes location, since we purchased a USB2 hub for it. I quickly learned how to direct iTunes to 'pull' the music from the M file & understand how all that works. Life is good. I even took the time to put an album art file on the M drive & insterted everything into iTunes by 'hand'.
Bless my hubby's heart. Completely filled with computer envy, he just purchased me a brand spanking new shiney computer. Needless to say, with all these new bells and whistles, I can now use my computer as the 'home base' for all things iPod/iTunes instead of having to go downstairs to do updates, etc.
I looked up & printed out "How to use your iPod to move your music to a new computer" from the Apple web site, which basically says to download everything onto my iPod's harddrive & do the transfer on the new machine.
I think what I'm trying to ask, is since all the music is located on an external drive:
When I download iTunes to iPod harddrive, are all the tags still in place? Will all the album art be correct, so when I download it onto the new computer, everything will be identical to what's on the old computer?
--or--
Is there another trick I can do to have everthing the same on the new computer?
--or--
Am I better off just having my computer go to the M drive & upload all the music onto my new computer & reload all the album art by hand again?
My real hesitation on this method is I have a lot of things on the M drive that I changed the tags on in iTunes, & I would really hate to go & search through everything again & redo what tags I can find wrong.
I know that this may sound like a lot of trivial questions, but with over 6,000 tracks, I'd really like the process to go as smoothly as possible.
And once again; I'm sorry if this seems like just another 'how do I transfer' question. As I was reading the search results, I didn't notice anything that dealt with external drives being involved & I don't know if any of that makes a differance or not in all of this.
Thank you SO MUCH for your time!!
