Fed up with ATI X800. Looking for Nvidia 7800 GT

After weeks of research I've come to learn that the ATI X800 AGP graphics card I have in my (non-PCI-Express) G5 dual 1.8 has serious design flaws that ATI simply isn't interested in addressing.
So since I need a card that will work with my 30" Cinema Display, and I'm use to the power of an X800 with 256 VRAM (when it was working), I don't want to settle for anything less powerful.
Based on my research Nvidia's 7800GT is compatible with my G5's AGP slot, has 256VRAM, and even benchmarks faster than the x800!
Problem is, I can't seem to find a place where I can buy it. At least not for the Mac.
Anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks in advance!

Hi-
You will need to "make" your own 7800, or have someone mod it for use in the G5. The Nvidia Geforce 7800 AGP is the best candidate. Check through the site for info on how to mod the card, or, visit The Mac Elite Forums, and check out stuff for sale, or inquire as to having a card modded for you.

IPad video poster frames white box with grey tv, looking for fix

I have searched the forums and can not find a working solution.
I have mpeg4 Apple TV/ iPad videos that I have added to my iPad through iTunes.
When they came in, all the poster frames were black, as that's the first frame of video. I manually went though iTunes and set each poster frame.
I then sync and reboot on the iPad. Poster frames are now white squares with grey tv.
Repeated the above twice.
Signed in and out of home share (as suggested by one forum) and reboots iPad.
Have removed all files from iPad and then added back. Back to black poster frames.
I have no way to check if the poster frame are correct as in iTunes, I can only see files on the iPad in list view. When I do get info, there is nothing about the poster frame.
Any help or ideas would be appreciated.

Thanks!

BUMP.
Still looking for an answer on this. In addition to the above:
I have tried setting the poster frames inside of iTunes
I have tried setting the poster frames outside of iTunes and then importing onto the iPad though iTunes.
Setting ratings made no difference.
I can not add artwork manually, it is greyed out in the info pain and not accessible.
Still same results. Now all video files are a Grey Square with a different symbol depending on what "Media Kind" the file is set to. And in fact, when I do this, the files disappear from iTunes and I can no longer find them.
Apple, Please help!!
Reading the Forums, this is a problem that has yet to be answered.

Fortinet configuration with SCCM - just looking for experiences with it.

Just looking for experiences with Fortinet SSL gateway and managing clients with SCCM with it. I'm planning on building a lab area and selling management the idea of using Windows Defender and managing the 700 remote clients we have with our SCCM 2k7
R2 setup on Windows 7.
So if anyone has any experiences it would be handy. Or white papers would be awesome.
Trying to figure out an SSL gateway product with a path of least resistance that isn't Citrix.

Yes, I know this is an old post, but I’m trying to clean them up.

Problem with my program looking for the settings file in the wrong folder

I have been writing a simple FTP file uploader, what I want to do is be able to select the files I want to upload in windows explorer and then right click and click the menu item and it launches the program and passes the files paths that I have selected to it.
So I use this in the windows registry "C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.6.0_03\bin\java.exe -jar D:\BenFTP\BenFTP.jar %1"
It launches fine and has no problem finding the files I want to upload. The problem is that it tries to look for the settings file in the same folder that the file I am try to upload is in. Which it's not suppose to do since the settings file is in the same folder that the .jar is in.

So, you're looking for your settings file in your current working directory. There's no way to set the CWD in your registry entry (is there?) so that isn't a practical thing to do. Presumably you're using a File object or a FileReader or something? Can't do that.
One alternative is to look for the settings file in the classpath. You can get a URL to a file in the classpath like this:URL settings = this.getClass().getResource("/settings.xml");Or you can get an InputStream to read the file by using the getResourceAsStream method. You would have to make sure that your executable jar file contained a Class-Path entry that specified the right directory, because the directory the jar is contained in isn't automatically in an executable jar's classpath.
Another alternative is to ask the user where the settings file is supposed to be, and put an entry in the Preferences (java.util.prefs) to remember that location.

Upgrading with QTM Reading/Looking for Plug-In Folder

I am upgrading my QTM Reader to hopefully solve my dropped frames issue, but I am having trouble finding the plug-in folder inside of my FCP application folder. FCP simply opens when I click on it, I can't seem to find any type of folder assoicated with it. I also need to create another folder, etc. I am sure this will sound familiar to you guys. Any suggestions? Thanks.

For the moment I have reverted back to the open panel method after discovering unacceptably poor performance with choose folder. Choose folder would take a couple of seconds to fillout. Open panel works instantly. Can you explain a bit more how I can roll my own? Perhaps there is an example you could point to or a specific document I can read. I created my app three years ago as my first and only Applescript and I have done nothing with Applescript since then. It has been a bear just to come back up to a level to consider making improvements to it.
Thanks, AKS

Mac Pro App crashes while looking for server that no longer exists

PROBLEM:
Motion crashes every time I try to launch. Before it crashes, a window appears with the message: "Looking for "G4MDD"--which is my old G4 machine.
BACKGROUND:
I kept my old G4MDD networked to my MacPro Intel machine for a while during my hardware migration due to Motion app instabilities I was experiencing.
Finally, with Motion v2.1.2, I was able to run Motion on my MacPro reliably.
I disconnected G4MDD from the network, deploying it to another building, dedicated to other non-FCP purposes.
I have not been able to launch Motion 2 on the MacPro since. It goes out looking for G4MDD, then crashes every time.
REMEDIES I'VE TRIED:
Everything Apple suggests on the Motion troubleshooting page, including re-install of the app following all instructions meticulously.
QUESTIONS TO GROUP:
1) Is there some server-related preference file I can try trashing?
2) Any other suggestions?

The location should be /Users/your name/Pictures. You can change this by holding down the option or alt key (the ones immediately to the left or right of the cmd keys either side of the spacebar) whilst clicking on the iPhoto application icon in your dock and making an informed choice from the options you see.
By default iPhoto creates an iPhoto Library (the folder where all your data in iPhoto is stored) in the /Users/your name/Pictures folder. It seems that in the past you must have selected an externally or network attached volume named TOSHIBA as the location for the iPhoto Library instead using the instructions I've given you. All you have to do is revert it back to the location you now want.

Looking for some design ideas...

Hi andy,
You need to go for BPM for your requirement.
For multiple SOAP Action you need to specify the action name in SOAP receiver adapter.
You can create 3 SOAp channel with 3 different action.
or create one channel and set the Action name dynamically in Mapping.
SOAP Action
Specify the SOAP action. The action species the value for the SOAPAction in Web service messages.
Refer this link for help
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/29/5bd93f130f9215e10000000a155106/content.htm
When calling the service, the results of the first method need to be passed as inputs into the second and third methods. The results from the second method need to be mapped to Idocs in XI and sent Async.
BPM step:
Receive the requyest in BPM
Send step: Make Fisrt call to SOAP(Mapping: Receive request toSOAP request)
Send step: Make second call to SOAP(Mapping First SOAP response to second SOAP Request)
Send step: Make third call to SOAP(Mapping: First SOAP response to Third SOAP Request)
Send step: Send Step to ECC(Mapping : Second response to IDOC)

Looking for iBooks Author vendor

Looking for iBooks Author vendor to create multiple books based on an existing template. The books are operative techniques for the orthopaedic surgery industry. Need an idea of cost to outsourse. Here are the specs:
7 chapters
the first page of each chapter is an overview of the chapter that includes hyperlinks to each step in the operative technique
total of 44 pages
each page has at least one video widget (some pages have two), a photo gallery widget plus a static image and text
glossary index with 100 entries that include text and photos (would love to find someone who can program including collada 3-D images into the glossary. but that is a nice to have, not a need to have)
all images require resizing for the ibook (they are print images)
all videos require compression for the ibook
half of the pages have 3-d collada files
heavy typesetting is required
three pages include large interactive images with 20 labels
Looking for estimates to present to the company on the cost to outsourse as well as find possible vendors to talk to and provide more detail.
thanks.

i apologize. here is my contact email if anyone is interested in talk more about this.

Looking for email address stripping code

Hiya,
I'm looking for a piece of CF code that strips email
addresses from a string. It needs to be smart, so that various
patterns can be detected and stripped.
Ex: [email protected], email at domain dot com, email@ domain
.com, email at domain.com, etc....
Does anybody know if somethng like this already exists?
Thanks.

Ahhh. so you filter the postings to remove their attempt to
circumvent the sharing of email addresses? Got it.
All I can say is, good luck to ya. If people want to share
that kind of information, they will! Just out of curiosity, why
would you even attempt to prevent people from sharing their very
own contact information? Note that I am not arguing, rather curious
about what valid reason anyone would have for attempting to prevent
people from doing what they want with their own information.
What I might suggest is.... Since you probably have their
email address on file from when they registered (at least one of
their email addresses anyway) you should be able to do an
intelligent search for strings that are similar to the email
address that you have on file. So, as opposed to starting with
*nothing* and looking for things that *might* be an intentionally
obfuscated email address, you are least starting with
*something*.

Upgrade MacPro1,1 with ATI Radeon X1900 XT 512 MB and Open GL 1.7.7. to recommended system requirements for heli simulator: OpenGL Version 2.1 compatible 3D-graphics card from NVIDIA or ATI with 512MB.

I want to install a helicopter simulator into my MacPro1,1 with ATI Radeon X1900 XT 512 MB and Open GL 1.7.7. Recommended system requirements for the heli simulator are: OpenGL Version 2.1 compatible 3D-graphics card from NVIDIA or ATI with 512MB (at least as fast as NVIDIA 8600, 9400 or ATI Radeon HD 2400). Is there such a graphics card available that will work in my Mac Pro?

Are you really still running 10.6.3? you will need 10.6.5+ so do that and make a clone.
ATI 5770 from Apple Store - like 1000s of others have done and in the comments section on the store page.

Any help/ideas for ATI X800 XT

Aloha, I've searched & searched so I'm hoping someone here might have an idea where to get an ATI X800 XT card for my G5. I have heard rumors that they have started making/shipping them again. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Mahalo in advance for any tips. JB

OK, so getting an ATI X800 card looks impossible right now, so can anyone point me towards a different card that would make working with Aperture on my G5 a bit quicker/smoother?
G5 Dual 2.3 GHz PPC with 4GB ram and a (AGP) ATI Radeon 9650 video card.
I really love Aperture and it's capabilities, but it's lag with every tweak on RAW files is becoming frustrating. Mahalo in advance for any assistance. JB
