First time real disappointment
I have been a Mac fanboy since 1986 and always used Apple products, both in my advertising business and private at home. I have updated my hardware on a regular basis and have a iMac 27", MacBook Air (late 2010), iPad and iPhone and a couple of Mac minis and an Apple TV latest version.
The most exciting thing with Mountain Lion was AirPlay, since i often use my MBA in client education purposes. I read the list of which models that could not be updated to 10.8 and mine wasn't in that list. As many others, I took for granted that every nice feature of Mountain Lion would work for me.
"Make sure your Mac can run Mountain Lion.
Your Mac must be one of the following models:
iMac (Mid 2007 or newer)
MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer)
MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer)
MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer)
Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer)
Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer)
Xserve (Early 2009)"
So with real disappointment I now realize that neither AirPlay or PowerNap will be available for me. Unless I buy a new MBA. Under Feature Specific Requirements it said for PowerNap, a solid state drive was needed and it would work on a late 2010 and newer. That information has been changed now to "mid 2011" in US. It is still there on the UK and many other sites:
I don't like to be misinformed by Apple. I don't like when terms change on the fly. I will have to buy and tryout AirParrot now.
My Problem is just the same as yours. And I'm realy ****** about apple. Power Nap was one of the reasons for me making the upgrade to Mountain Lion.

Disappointed: First time IPOD user needs help
This is the first time I have decided to take the plunge and purchase an IPOD. I decided to go all out and get the Touch. After tryng for a week to get it running and reading all of these posts, I am coming to the conclusion that this was a huge mistake!! It has been NOTHING but a headache.
Like other posters, my Touch is frozen with the USB cable logo. I tried ALL suggestions posted and in troubleshooting topics. I get as far as iTunes recognizing my device and saying I need to restore. However, every time I restore, it seems to be working but it never can finish and a window pops up saying unable to restore, and error occurred (1604).
Is there a way to get a hold of these people to get help? This is ridiculous and I am extremely disappointed! I thought Apple was supposed to be very user friendly. Any advice would be appreciated.Hi there - Definitely give AppleCare support a chance. Use this page to locate the appropriate contact information for them: http://www.apple.com/contact/.
In the meantime, regarding your error message:
I'd attempt a clean reinstall:
Go into Control Panel > Add/Remove Programs
Remove these applications:
1. Apple Software Update
2. Apple Mobile Device Support
3. iTunes
4. QuickTime
Restart the computer
Download & Install the Windows Installer Cleanup Utility:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290301/
Launch the Utility: Start > Programs > Windows Install Clean Up
Select any of the above mentioned applications, and click Remove
Restart the computer again
Download & install iTunes again from here: http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Prior to attempting to restore the iPod again, disconnect any and all non-essential USB devices you have connected to your computer... for example, disconnect printers/scanners but you can leave your mouse or keyboard.
I also recommend the steps in this article:

Very disappointed by apple for the first time...
For the first time I feel realy realy dissapointed by Apple...
My MacBook Pro has 1 year and 1 month, so the warranty is over, suprisely som days ago start to fail the ethernet conection, I took it to authorized repair center and the result was, motherboard fail but because is out of warranty, have to pay $1,000 dlls plus manwork!!!!!!!!!!!!
How is possible that for 1 month after warranty and in on a very expensive Laptop have to pay again more tha $1,000 dlls, today the value of the equipment isnt more than $1200-1400 dlls!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I called customer support and the just tell me that I have to pay that or leave without ethernet the 1 year use MacBook pro!!!!!! I didnt receive even a discount!!!!!!!!!!!!
Isnt fair on a excellent company that always take a lot of care of his users!!!!!!!! I will think twice befero buy another mac equipment because is very sensitive and expensive.........AppleCare can be added within 1 year of purchase. I did, and at 18 months my HD needs replaced. The biggest problem for me was that the store was very busy and needed 2 days to work through the backlog of existing repairs.

For the first time I think to switch LR
I'm really surprise with myself having the idea to swith to Lightroom.
I've adopted Aperture since the launch, I've immediately loved his workflow. The first 1.0 with many bugs but with the confidence in Apple that new versions will resolve it (and in part it has happened). The rebate of the price, very serious solution. The efforts to give a real usable version changing the development team. I've always supported Aperture, I've also made many show of this software in cooperation with my local re-seller of Apple because I have really thinked that Apple with Aperture will arrive in photo as Final Cut arrived in the video. I speak always the best about it.
But, there is a "but".
After 1 year and half the progress is stop. No idea of when 2.0 will be released, no idea of which kind of new functions will have. In the same time Adobe is really aggressive and competitive, many people I know are switching to Adobe solution because they are more "sure" for the future (and when you "married" with a library concept and software it's a very important thing, specially if we are speaking about raw adjustment settings that will be lost if you change software). Yesterday, during a show made by Adobe I've study very well Lightroom for the first time, I understand the potential and also the possibility to convert my library.
For the first time I really think to switch.
What do you suggest? I know that I'm in Aperture forum so all of us are using that software, but please, help me to understand why it should be better for me stay in Aperture without any idea on the future of this software.
Thank you!
Max
p.s. sorry if my english is not perfect.
G5 Dual 1.8 | 2gb ram | Ati X800 XT 256mb | Cinema Display 23" + Dell 18" Mac OS X (10.4.6) MacBook Pro 15.4 2.0 ghz | 2gb ramLike many here, I purchased Aperture almost when it came out, and followed all of the updates. I'd used Aperture for over a year when Lightroom 1.0 was released.
When Lightroom 1.0 was first released, I tried a 30 day trial. I shoot landscape photos, and had a Canon RAW file that was particularly difficult to process and extract because of the dynamic range of the image. When I opened that file in Lightroom, the RAW output from Lightroom was noticably better than Aperture. Without any adjustment, it was better than I could accomplish with Aperture under any condition.
In the end, I use Lightroom for one reason: the quality of RAW extracts. (Photography is about the image.) A bonus is that it's noticeably faster than Aperture on my equipment (Dual G5 and a MacBook Pro). I'm not so fond of Lightroom's modal interface. Aperture is much more convenient in that respect. But the image quality is the prime consideration, and Aperture's RAW processing isn't as good as Lightroom's, at least not yet.
I'm keeping Aperture up to date. I've also tried to organize my files and photo library so that switching between the two applications is possible. If Aperture pulls out in front I'll go back.
There are two good reviews of both programs by two different people. One is a Lightroom person that tests Aperture, and the other is an Aperture person that tests Lightroom. They differ on which application they prefer. If you read both, you'll get a sense of the strengths and weaknesses of both.

Trials and Tribulations of a First Time MSI Builder
I'll try to keep this short and sweet (IMPOSSIBLE!), but hopefully this may make sense to some of you out there who have sought and found solice here on the MSI boards....
First off....I'm a first-time MSI MB user.....my system specs are as follows:
Voyeurmods Verge X case
MGE Vigor 500 PS
Athlon 64 2800
MSI K8T Neo FSRII
1 gig Kingston 400DDR (KVR400X64)
1- 80 gig Barracuda SATA
Thermalright SLK948U and TT UFO fan
Aopen DVD/CDR combo drive
TT Hardcano 12
Enermax 6 fan controller
Asus 9800xt
Audigy Platinum
and assorted other fans, belts, and whistles......
Now...the story and the point behind this post:
I have only built one other comp....2.4 Pentium Platform......nice, stable rig.....a few extra goodies to qualify it as a "semi-mod"...but it was a great system to cut my teeth on, and in all fairness, I had a lot of extra help with cables/bios/cpu install, etc. I wouldnt call it a "from-scratch" set up...Never one to NOT jump into the deep end of the pool, I decided to move up a bit and try a new build from scratch....I wanted a decent rig...strictly gaming......as close to state of the art as my budget would allow, but I was prepared to make exceptions......
My original MB of choice once I settled on an Athlon 64 was the Abit KV8. It was a great-looking MB; I thought the OATES cooling system was a significant upgrade from a lot of others...and I liked their "UGURU" system management tool...unfortunately, the Abit MB is now sitting in a trash bin....I have to say that, all emotion aside, Abit wont be seeing my cash any time in the future.....to call the OATES system a total failure would be an understatement...only AFTER I started reading the Abit boards did I realize that virtually every builder was removing the plastic OATES shroud and tossing it away.......the screw alignment in the OATES portion of the board, coupled with almost any aftermarket HS/fan alignment warps the board slightly and doesnt allow multiple sticks of memory to sit properly in the slots......if you folks think thats a joke, just check out the Abit forums.....I'd say that right now, the negative reviews of the KV8 boards are surpassing the "positive" reviews by a ratio of 2 or 3 to 1. And then try RMA'ing the board once its warped!
Now granted, the Thermalright SLK puts a hell of a stress load on the CPU section of the MB through sheer weight alone, but the MSI board, TO ME, seems to be a bit "beefier"....a tad thicker in construction. I dunno...maybe its the layout, or weight distribution. But I digress and this was "supposed" to be short and sweet....
Many hours of bareboning the build with the Abit board resulted in me switching manufacturers and trying MSI. Everything I tried....all the tech support....all the forums and Abit messageboards.....litterally swapping out every piece of equipment....nothing got that Abit board to boot up. I was getting error messages that werent even acknowledged by the manufacturer! Folks, you have NO idea how much better a product MSI is putting out compared to Abit.
For starters.....the board sits damned near perfectly on the standoffs.....one does NOT have to remove the video card to get at the memory slots (the Abit board requires MOST if not all video cards to be removed if swapping memory in slot 1)...the layout of the SATA and IDE brackets seemed a bit more ergonamically proficient on the MSI board.....about the only thing that appealed to me (initially)more on the Abit board was an "on board" LCD error check system that seemed to be a bit easier to use than the MSI D Bracket system. I say "seemed to be", but again, going back to basic board layout and design, the LCD's are virtually covered by the IDE cables that have to sit over the LCD's because of their close proximity to each other. Nice idea. Poorly executed.
So....if any of you first-timers have concerns about choosing the MSI board, start breathing easier.....once I switched boards, and used the exact same components as my first try with the Abit board, the K8T Neo started up first time out of the box.....everything about this board (knock wood), so far, has been great, and I also have to say that the help that all of you here dish out has made this experience nothing short of amazing.
Jocko, whoever the hell you are, you are my new Obi Wan Kenobi! Your advice in a few threads to newbies like myself was so damned "dead-on" ....so accurate...its like you know these boards and systems from the circuit on up! And I have to thank you right now for helping me even though we never exchanged emails or posts......many, many, many thanks!
Also, Mike...your thread for first-timers......it should be part of the itinerary for ALL newbies. Thanks for taking the time to share....
Finally...some additional thoughts that may help others ( or may not):
1. Configuring the BIOS is, to me anyway, always a bit scary. I like pointing and clicking...I hate pressing enter and using arrow keys...there are just too many damned choices and I'll always wonder if I made the right ones......scan back a few threads and search out any of Jocko's advice regarding the initial load of Windows and SATA drives...he makes this part easy. Also, there are several websites that give advice on optimum BIOS configs....you can find many links here on these forums.
2. If any of you want custom modded cases at decent pricing, dont be afraid to use Voyeurmods. Everything about Brian and his crew is top notch.....the customer service....the shipping.....the Verge X case is simply perfection.....I cant say enough nice things about them.
3. Kingston memory can be purchased directly from their USA website at fairly discounted pricing from just about anyone else on the web.....I paid $139.00 for 2 512 sticks of 400 DDR(not per stick...$139.00 total) a while back...pricing changes weekly so if you like Kingston product, check them weekly for specials...so far it has worked perfectly in my rig, and because you are buying direct, the warranty is as good as it gets.
4. The Thermalright SLK 948 is one hell of a heatsink, and the TT UFO fan that sits on top of it makes for one nice combo! My CPU refuses to overheat under load, and I cant say enough about how easy it was to install on the board. If any of you want a superb aftermarket product this does the trick nicely.
5. Any idea why the 2 power slots on the MSI MB are on opposite sides of the board? That was the one glitch I found on these boards that Abit did right...place the 2 power connections side by side for better cable management.
6. If on the first power up the entire system stays dark, chances are it AINT a bad Power supply...more than likely its front panel headers in the wrong slots..check your wiring. If there is just a slight glimpse of power and it cuts out immediately, its almost assuredly wrong wiring....the PS is shorting itself out.
7. On the HOT topic of power supplies....my MGE has 20 amps on the 12 volt line...I know, I know....its barely adequate to some of you....but I have to say this in as nice a way as possible: folks, it AINT always the power supply when a problem develops. I have read countless.....COUNTLESS posts/threads on both Board forums where a problem is "diagnosed" as being a crappy power supply. Some folks wont even discuss any other issue until a different PS is installed. The sad/funny thing is....if you read back through the threads here, as well as the Abit boards, I'd say 90% of the solutions to the problems didnt end up being the PS at all! Its more like: 30% user error....20% memory...10% CMOS clearing....20% component failure(including MB)....10% CPU seating.....10% PS.
8. Do....regardless of how much extra work is involved here....DO utilize a barebones build BEFORE you install in the case and hook up all the peripherals.....it cuts out SO many potential problems before they happen, and just makes so damned much sense. I know its extra effort, but if youre a first timer, and you want that first boot to take place; you want that main screen once you press "DELETE", this is the way to go.
9. Clearing CMOS. LOL! Yup......oh the errors of first- timers like myself!!!!!! Dont even bother posting here until you make sure you cleared the CMOS properly, and if youre not sure how, dont be afraid to ask stupid questions like I did here.
10. Dont be afraid to use cardboard as your anti-static material under a barebones...it works well...costs nothing...and your only potential issue is heat build up if your CPU freaks out.
11. DONT overuse your Artic Silver 5 on the CPU.....forget all the advice about "spreading out evenly" a thin layer of silver all over the CPU cover.....use the "grain of rice" method in the center.....a very small amount spreads out like you cant imagine! After I removed the HS from the CPU on the Abit board, I couldnt believe how thoroughly well the paste had spread over the CPU cover. If I had used more, or spread it out, the TR SLK would have forced it well over the sides of the CPU.
12. DONT be afraid of the BIOS. The MSI manual actually does a pretty decent job of guiding one through the initial set up, and YES...do NOT forget to press F10 to save all your changes.....it took me a couple of tries to make sure the changes "took".
13. DONT panic if you miss the F6 move on Windows install for SATA drivers.....it seems that on XP home, pressing F6 when prompted to made no difference.....30 seconds later the "add 3rd party drivers" screen comes up anyway.....for reference sake, my total Windows XP install took 16 minutes from start to finish.
14. Loading the VIA SATA drivers at that point in Windows is tricky for one very simple reason: the floppy doesnt have any "scroll down" arrows for multiple driver install. They are hidden UNDER the initial screen....press "S" when prompted for the initial driver....and then scroll down under the first batch to find the second one...highlight it and press "S"....dont panic if the screen doesnt change immediately...it "feels" like Windows lags a bit but the screen DOES change.
15. SATA cables dont always "sit" snugly in Barracuda drives...I tried 3 different cables from legit manufacturers in 2 different Seagates....they all fit...they all work...but just a tiny amount of pressure unseats them....use caution and try to keep any other cables from pressing OVER the SATA near the HD.
16. Bench test your system for at least 24 hours of continuous useage before you move it or do anything else with it......it just makes sense to see if anything shorts out or heats up......
Feel Free to email me ([email protected]) if you have any questions or want any ideas.....MSI has made my first real build a blast!
JJHi
Welcome, glad you got some benefit from the threads, it all so easy once you've done it a few times, aint it.
Glad your going well, now you can help others
you could also join the folding team and help medical research.
enjoy

My sons just bought me an ipad mini especially so that I could check a certain website on which I sign up for jobs throughout the day. The website is updated constantly throughout the day with new jobs and the status of the jobs I already have accepted and worked on. (It shows the percentage of the job that has been done.) It worked fine only the first time I logged on with the mini. Since then (yesterday,) when I check the website, it lets me log in, but I only see the same exact information that was there the first time I went to the website using the mini. It seems to be 'frozen' on that particular first look. It doesn't update at all.
I know it is not updating because I have also been checking with my notebook computer and with the notebook, the website is up to date.
Maybe its Safari?
I had the same problem when I used a friend's iPad.
I wonder if there is a setting or something that I could change to allow the website to update to the time I check it.
If not, then the ipad mini is a terrible disappointment and I would like to return it.
If you can help me, I would be extremely grateful.

Setting up a cluster for the first time: newbie questions
Any help appreciated with this situation:
I'm trying to set up a cluster for the first time and running into
issues (no big surprise). I'll outline my situation and pose questions
as they arise. If/when I get things to work I'll post a step-by-step
summary of what it took to get a simple cluster going.
Here's what I have:
machines:
1 Windows 2000 machines with WL 6.1
2 RedHat Linux machines with WL 6.1
All machines are on the same Home LAN, can see each other, etc.
IP addresses are:
Windows box: 192.168.1.100
Linux box 1: 192.168.1.102
Linux box 2: 192.168.1.103
servers:
I've set up the Windows machine as my admin server, and set up
a managed server on each Linux machine. I created a cluster that consists
of the 2 Linux machines and deployed the web app and EJB to the cluster.
The Windows machine is acting as a Proxy using ClusterServlet.
The web application has been set as the Default Web Application on the
two Linux machines. All 3 machines are listening on ports 80/443. I also
set up session memory replication through the console.
Application:
I have an application that I package as an EAR file. I'm using it as a
"reference" application designed to mimic a real world app as much as possible.
The EAR file contains a web application that uses Struts. It also consists
of a single Stateless Session Bean. The WAR file and EJB Jar are all
packaged up into the EAR file. I've been able to run this application just
fine on a single managed server on all 3 machines.
The web application works fine, and it can invoke the EJB. I can also
invoke the EJB from Java stand-alone clients. Struts works great. All is
well with the world. Now I'm trying to "cluster-ize" this app using
the environment described above and encountering issues.
I've read the docs and followed the instructions according to the
"Weblogic Bible" book. I can bring up all 3 servers and the Linux
managed servers connect to the cluster just fine. I can also
see the Struts messages in their logs which normally happens and tells me
the webapp is initialized properly. The console tells me that the managed
servers are running. I get no error messages starting up any of the serves.
Here are the problems I am encountering.
When I try to access the Web Application (through a browser on the
Windows machine using http://localhost) I get the following error message:
<Nov 19, 2002 6:44:33 AM EST> <Error> <HTTP> <HttpServer(1754841,null default ct
x,admin) found no context for "/". This request does not match the context path
for any installed web applications and there is no default web application confi
gured.>
Also, when I try to invoke the EJB through a stand-alone Java client,
I get a JNDI lookup error on the EJB's home interface.
Questions:
Question1: I noticed when setting up the machines that console lets you
define a "Machine" or a "Unix Machine". What's the difference? Should I
define the Linux machines as Unix machines or machines, and what are the
consequences of either choice?
Question2:
I'm not totally clear on how my web.xml should look to set up Struts,
the ClusterServlet, and a servlet filter I'm using to test Servlet filters.
Here is what I had before I tried to cluster and which works fine:
<filter>
<filter-name>MainFilter</filter-name>
<filter-class>com.refapp.servlets.MainFilter</filter-class>
<init-param>
<param-name>myAttribute</param-name>
<param-value>Foo</param-value>
</init-param>
</filter>
<filter-mapping>
<filter-name>MainFilter</filter-name>
<url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>
</filter-mapping
<!-- Struts ActionServlet Configuration -->
<servlet>
<servlet-name>action</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>org.apache.struts.action.ActionServlet</servlet-class>
<init-param>
<param-name>application</param-name>
<param-value>refappstruts</param-value>
</init-param>
<init-param>
<param-name>config</param-name>
<param-value>/WEB-INF/struts-config.xml</param-value>
</init-param>
<init-param>
<param-name>debug</param-name>
<param-value>2</param-value>
</init-param>
<init-param>
<param-name>mapping</param-name>
<param-value>org.apache.struts.action.RequestActionMapping</param-value>
</init-param>
<load-on-startup>2</load-on-startup>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>action</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>*.do</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
<welcome-file-list>
<welcome-file>index.do</welcome-file>
<welcome-file>index.jsp</welcome-file>
<welcome-file>index.html</welcome-file>
</welcome-file-list>
(I have set up a "dummy" 0-length file called index.do that triggers
Struts to go into its ActionServlet when first accessing the web site).
Here is how I added ClusterServlet to web.xml:
servlet>
<servlet-name>ClusterServlet</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>weblogic.servlet.internal.HttpClusterServlet</servlet-class>
<load-on-startup>0</load-on-startup>
<init-param>
<param-name>defaultServers</param-name>
<param-value>192.168.1.102:80:443|192.168.1.103:80:443</param-value>
</init-param>
<init-param>
<param-name>DebugConfigInfo</param-name>
<param-value>ON</param-value>
</init-param>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>InitServlet</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/servlet/InitServlet</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>action</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>*.do</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>ClusterServlet</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>ClusterServlet</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>*.html</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>ClusterServlet</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>*.jsp</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>ClusterServlet</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>*.do</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
Clearly there is a problem with the Default Web application not being
seen/mapped properly. Any chances my URL mappings for the filter servlet,
Struts, and ClusterServlet are stepping on each other?
With respect to the EJB, here is what my weblogic-ejb-jar looks like:
<weblogic-ejb-jar>
<weblogic-enterprise-bean>
<ejb-name>Hello</ejb-name>
<stateless-session-descriptor>
<pool>
<max-beans-in-free-pool>100</max-beans-in-free-pool>
</pool>
<stateless-clustering>
<stateless-bean-is-clusterable>true</stateless-bean-is-clusterable>
<stateless-bean-load-algorithm>
round-robin
</stateless-bean-load-algorithm>
<stateless-bean-methods-are-idempotent>
true
</stateless-bean-methods-are-idempotent>
</stateless-clustering>
</stateless-session-descriptor>
<jndi-name>Hello.Home</jndi-name>
</weblogic-enterprise-bean>
I run this through ejbc and package everything up into the EAR file.
However, I get a JNDI lookup failure when I try to access the Bean from
a standalone Java client running on the Windows machine.
Here is the jndi.properties file that I am using:
java.naming.factory.initial=weblogic.jndi.WLInitialContextFactory
java.naming.provider.url=t3://localhost:80
Any ideas what I'm doing wrong here? I can post config.xml also if needed.
Thanks in advance!
Let me try to answer :)....
A1> No need to name diff machines by default weblogic
considers the servers are physically located in diff boxes.
The names are used to differtiate the mang servers which are in
multihomed
Some things to chk
1> Did u targeted the ear file Target as cluster.
2> Can u see on the Admin console that both the man servers
are participated in the cluster( u can see by clicking the monitoring
tab on the Cluster node).
3>Is the URL:PORT for the default web app correct?
the reason: is I dont see the port# on the link u mentioned
4> probably ur ejb might not been deployed on the target thats the
reason u cant access thru java client. If u correct the targets that
will probably fix it.
Hope this helps
Please post the result
Thanks

Suspends fails the first time, but succeeds the second time
Hi all,
I am running Arch Linux on my Dell XPS 15 9530 laptop, and overall I am very happy with the combination. I have however had some issues with suspending.
The problem is that the first time I try to suspend the machine it seems to go to sleep, but then two seconds later it automatically wakes up again. If I then immediately try again to suspend, it works (it does not wake up automatically). Does anyone know what could be going on, and how this can be fixed?
Usually I suspend from my gnome 3 desktop, but I have also tried to suspend directly using 'systemctl suspend' without having an X server running, and the result is exactly the same. I have tried a few versions of the vanilla kernel, but also the linux-lts and the linux-ck images, but to no avail.
Here is the output from dmesg, where suspend fails:

I need help, i just synced my iphone3gs for the first time and now most of my apps wont work
I just used itunes for the first time to sync my iphone 3GS!!! Now, half of my apps will not work! Any suggestions? I touch on the app and it flashes real fast then back to my home screen... HELP PLEASE!!!!
Try to reset the phone by holding the sleep and home button for at least 10 sec, until the Apple logo comes back.
If this does not work, restore the phone. Restoring is covered here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414 -
First time user questions (managing library, file size defaults, cropping,)
I'm on my first Mac, which I am enjoying and am also using iPhoto '08 for the first time which is a great tool. It has really increased my efficiency in editing a lot of photos at one time. However, the ease of use makes a couple custom things I want to do difficult. I'd appreciate any feedback;
1) I often want to get at my files for upload or transfer to another machine. When I access Photos with my Finder I can only see "Iphoto Library" (or something like that) which does not show the individual files. Very annoying. I have found that i can browse to one of the menus and select "Open Library" and then I can see all the files.
How can I make it default to this expanded setting? When I am uploading pictures via a web application, for instance, the file open tool does not usually give me the option to Open the library. By Default, I would like the library to always be expanded so I do not have to run iPhoto or select "open" to view the files.
Basically, I just want easy manual control of my files in Finder and other applications.
2) Where do I set the jpg size of an edited file? My camera will output 10MB files and after a simple straighten or crop, iPhoto will save them to 1MB files.
Ignoring the debate on file size, is there a way to control the jpg compression so I can stay as close to what came out of the camera as possible?
3) I crop all my photos to 5x7. If I do that once, it comes up the next time. However, once I straighten the photo and then choose crop, it always comes up with some other odd size by default (the largest rectangle that can be fit in the new photos size).
While I know this may be useful for some people, it is time consuming when going through hundreds of photos to constantly have to choose "5x7" from the drop down list. Is there a way to make this the default?
I'm sure I'll have some more questions, but thus far, I've been real happy with iPhoto.
4) The next task will be sharing this Mac Pictures folder on my Wireless network so my XP PC can access it. I'm open to any tips on that one as well....
Thanks!toddjb
Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
There are three ways (at least) to get files from the iPhoto Window.
1. *Drag and Drop*: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic.
2. *File -> Export*: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size. Again, producing a copy.
3. *Show File*: Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.
To upload to MySpace or any site that does not have an iPhoto Export Plug-in the recommended way is to Select the Pic in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export and export the pic to the desktop, then upload from there. After the upload you can trash the pic on the desktop. It's only a copy and your original is safe in iPhoto.
This is also true for emailing with Web-based services.
If you use Apple's Mail, Entourage, AOL or Eudora you can email from within iPhoto.
The format of the iPhoto library is this way because many users were inadvertently corrupting their library by browsing through it with other software or making changes in it themselves. If you're willing to risk database corruption, you can restore the older functionality simply by right clicking on the iPhoto Library and choosing 'Show Package Contents'. Then simply make an alias to the folders you require and put that alias on the desktop or where ever you want it. Be aware though, that this is a hack and not supported by Apple.
Basically, I just want easy manual control of my files in Finder and other applications.
What's above is what's on offer. Remember, iPhoto is NOT a file organiser, it's a photo organiser. If you want to organise files, then use a file organiser.
Where do I set the jpg size of an edited file
You don't. Though losing 9MB off a 10MB files is excessive. Where are you getting these file sizes.
I crop all my photos to 5x7. If I do that once, it comes up the next time. However, once I straighten the photo and then choose crop, it always comes up with some other odd size by default (the largest rectangle that can be fit in the new photos size).
Straightening also involves cropping. Best to straighten first, then crop.
The next task will be sharing this Mac Pictures folder on my Wireless network so my XP PC can access it.
If you use the hack detailed above be very careful, it's easy to corrupt the iPhoto Library, and making changes to the iPhoto Package File via the Finder or another app is the most popular way to go about it.

Norton antivirus says my licence have expired when switch my computer on for the first time.
I just bought new touchsmart 520-1002 ru (LN649EA). It had norton antivirus preinstalled when i started it for the first time. After few hours of working antivirus informed me that the licence have expired. But before it was like 60 days. What to do? I'm affraid of sirfing the web without antivirus protection. So i'm using iphone. May be i should return it and buy second hand mac?
Hello Karuser:
Welcome to HP's forum and your new computer. Nothing to worry about. That was a trial verson. What ever time limit they gave it has expired. I think you miss read it It flashes a reminder all the time. You can still use your computer. Until you purchase or install an anti virus software. The only thing Norton will not do is up date it's self but it will still scan your computer when you open it up and click scan. Try to get anti virus software. Titanium Maximum 2012, McAfee, and Norton are the top choices to choose from. Try to stay a way from the real cheep ones like Kerpsky that will not protect your computer. My freind installed Kerpsky asked to fix his lap top. Well I did fix it first thing I did was get it on line and run Trend House Call it found over 250 different virus. Some of the worst ones I had to manually removed. Trend House call is a free scan. Trend.com are the one who make Titanium Maximum Security 2012.
You just bought this computer Mac's are great computers but you are very limited to what you can do on them. This one will last you for a very long time ounce we get the bugs out it. My Touchsmart 600-1050 is going strong going into it's third year now. Just had it's frist full recovery done now my computer runs faster and much better then when I first bought it. Yes I had some minor issues fixed on it at first like anything you buy today is not perfect HP covored it all during the one year warranty. My recovery was performed because I picked up a new virus that no anti virus on the market could delete it had to be manually delete it but to much damaged was caused in the operating control software. Otherwise I would be still using Oginal set up. -
Access of network for first time only
Hi there,
I have encountered some problems whenever my J2ME application wants to connect to the servlet via the HttpConnection. When i test on the real device, this alert message "Do you wish to access to the network " will always prompt me whenever i want to use the network.
So when i open the httpConnection 4 times, this alert message will prompt me 4 times.Is there any ways for me to eliminate this prompting? As far as i'm concerned, i know there's this feature in the mobile device that allows the setting of network access to ask for the first time only. But i want to set it in codings.
Can anybody help me in this matter?Thanks!You also need to set your application domain to trusted. Else even if the user sets the permission to always allow ... blah blah blah, the app will still ask every time. You do this by buying a certificate from a TTP.

New workflow first time with InDesign and FH
I thought I would share my experience using FreeHand in an
InDesign CS2 workflow for the first time,
first a little history: I have almost exclusively used trusty
old FreeHand for 95% of my layout work for the last 10 years up
till now, only tackling the crappy old dinosaur that is Quark when
the job size just got too big for Freehand,
one of my regular annual jobs is to produce a 52 page full
colour catalogue for a local company, too big for FH and a real
pain in Quark, so this year I took the plunge and bought the Adobe
CS2 Design Suite with the intention of only using InDesign CS2 for
long format jobs like this catalogue and sticking with FH for my
regular work.
Sorry folks but I have to tell you, I won't be using Freehand
for any of my layout work from now on, InDesign CS2 is no less than
Awesome!! I finished the whole job in record time, and due to the
great tools, honestly a better design.
just being able to use native photoshop psd files with
transparency directly in Layout is fantastic, not to mention
selectable hide and show layers from within the psd, I could go on
and on about the features that blew me away but many of you already
know about them, (nested style sheets anyone!?)
needless to say from now on I will only be using FreeHand to
produce my vector logo's etc, however if this is the situation then
there's a good case for learning Illustrator as .ai files can also
be used natively in InDesign.
I still think FreeHand is a great all rounder, but I have to
say I now feel more confident that I could live without it if
that's the way the cookie crumbles!Robert Philpotts wrote:

Same experience for me and my coworkers. We use ID everyday
and made a
smooth transition from Quark. Illustrator, on the other hand,
is just
baffling and I wonder if that's a legacy of it being a much
older
program. Photoshop, in some ways, has some difficult concepts
to learn
but Adobe seems to have worked hard to make its tools easy to
use
(reworking filters and layer styles for a couple of
examples.) I wonder
if Illustrator just doesn't get the same kind of resources
that
Photoshop and some of the other programs get. -

Premiere Elements - a real disappointment
I purchased Premiere Elements version 8 in Jan 2010 and had to give up on the software as it frequently crashed when working with multiple video and image files. I didn't realize that there had been two upgrades since version 8, and I now found out that to upgrade to the latest version Adobe is asking for $79.99 Is anybody actually making this purchase? That's almost the same price I paid for version 8 in 2010. Basically, Adobe is asking its customers to buy another software since their previous version is flawed. I would expect that Adobe (out of all the companies out there) would know better to keep their customers happy. The upgraded version PRE9 (released 2010) and PRE10 (released 2011) should have been a software update instead of two updated versions.
I am extremely disappointed with Adobe and will not purchase any new products with the Adobe name from now on.
- From one real disappointed Adobe user. (And BTW I did call Adobe and spoke to 3 different agents to file my complaint. They all said that they understood but that this is their business practice. I will just go and buy a Corel product.)Historically, PrElements has had a "life-span" of about 12 mos. and new versions are usually released in about Sept. or Oct., in time for Holiday shopping.
There are usually many additions, in each version, and often some changes. However, some users often do not appreciate some of the changes. I find similar with almost all programs - some changes are great, but some not to my personal liking. I used to upgrade most of my major programs with great regularity, as I found many "improvements" useful, and could amortize the cost of the upgrade over all of my clients and their projects. I have since retired, so my upgrades come only when I find real needs to do so, as the programs basically only are used for personal projects.
Now, back to PrE 8. Many feel that it was NOT a great version, with many issues. Some, but not all, of those issues were addressed with an update/patch. Most users felt that PrE 9, and then PrE 10, were much better versions. A few users have referred to PrE 8 as "Adobe's Vista." Not so sure that it was THAT bad, but then I never used it.
Adobe's pricing, and their "upgrade" policies, with regard to PrE and PSE, can be confusing. Often, major certified retailers offer some great "street pricing" and even better ones, if one buys the "bundle" of PrE & PSE. Often, the price ends up being less, than buying either program alone, from many suppliers. Then, the "upgrades," are full versions of the program(s), and only reflect a discount on the program - nothing more. Often, those "upgrade" prices are still higher than some of the discounted full-version (remember - those "upgrades" ARE full-version), and some of the "bundled" prices. I always compare the prices, from Amazon, Adobe Store, and other certified retailers, to see who has the best "deal."
Good luck,
Hunt
