Free, Online Tools for MSPs
Evernote I use for storing things. Some of which probably shouldn't be stored, but as I don't make it obvious what they're about it would be pretty useless for anyone.
I use teamviewer at home, meant I could update my desktop pc from my parents when I spent 4 months there recovering from my op. I also use it to help friends and relatives remotely. It isn't used at work.
Don't use any of the rest.
I'm looking to pull together a master list of free online tools that can help MSPs succeed. So far, I have come up with this list...
Evernote
Sidekick by HubSpot
Google Keep
Charlie
Canva
Password Safe
Have any of you had experience with these tools? Can you think of any others?

Oracle Tuxedo Chief ArchitectHi,
Tuxedo is unable to make any HTTPS calls other than SOAP/HTTPS. So if you are using web services, then SALT can perform SOAP/HTTPS calls, although I don't believe we support the message signing feature of WS-Security (although you might want to check the SALT 10gR3 or later documentation.)
We are considering adding support for HTTP/HTTPS directly in Tuxedo, but that feature is not available in any current version of Tuxedo. What exactly are you trying to accomplish?
Regards,
Todd Little

PS It would have been better to start a new thread for this question. :-) -

LabVIEW Free online IDE for Learner
Hi All,
Now a day every where cloud computing is bomming. if NI provides the LabVIEW Free online complier.
people who does't have any setup .they can learn any where through Internet and NI cloud.
This will helps to more people to learn labview beginer easily.> labview in itself is not fast enought
It does not sound like you know what you are talking about. There are at least two important speeds: development time and execution time. Development time for a given task is proven significantly faster with LabVIEW and, properly programmed (!), execution time is very comparable to any other programming language. For very time critical tasks, you can even go to dedicated hardware such as FPGA.
> is not cheap software
There is the LabVIEW home bundle for non-commercial use. Very cheap! For commercial applications its cost is well worth it.
> the day it goes office356° we pull the cord on labview because it is also used for closed source stuff, which should not be leaked by the programm
LabVIEW is very widely used in industry and there will always be a secure local option. This idea was about a learning environment, not something for serious development.

OT: New - Free Online Backup for OS X
Just found this and thought it might be of interest to some (I think I remember WA asking about online backup). I've done no reading myself, so I don't know what their limits are (Size/Bandwidth/etc),but here's what I found:
Clunk Click has launched an online data backup service for Mac OS X users to provide a simple, safe, and affordable means to protect data. OnLine Pro automatically backs up data to secure offsite data centers over the internet every day, according to Clunk Clink. "Mac users have been frustrated by the lack of choice in protecting their data," said Paul Roberts, managing director of Clunk Clink. "We now offer a secure service that will simplify the backup process, giving mirrored offsite backup and storage without the need for additional hardware or backup media. This presents a huge advantage for Mac users over current methods." OnLine Pro backup pricing was unavailable.
http://www.clunkclick.net/online_pro.html
(Oh, and needless to say, I have no affiliation with them)Hi,
As someone who is constantly searching for reasonably priced "remote" storage of my files, I was interested in finding out more about the ClunkClick service. Upon visiting the web site I was unable to find any pricing info, so I sent the following email.
To: [email protected]
Subject: Mac Free Trial
Greetings,
A Mac free trial is great. Not finding pricing for after the free
trial is not so great. Please provide me with pricing info. TYVM.
Frank
I received a response with an hour. Here it is:
=======================
Subject:
RE: Mac Free Trial
Hi Frank,
The base service is priced at £5/licence and then £5/GB. All pricing is monthly and subject to 17.5% UK VAT. We have some flexibility on the GB price for larger storage commitment.
Kind regards,
Jeremy Keane
=======================
At today's exchange rates, that's $9.54 for a license and $9.54 per GB per month. I didn't even figure in the whopping 17.5% UK VAT. OUCH!!! Even if I were to only back-up my most important files, at around 25 GB, that would be $238 PER MONTH. There are dedicated-server, web-hosting plans out there that offer 160 GB of disk space for $99 per month.
Seeing as how I back-up (incrementally) over 75 GB daily, from my 400 GB of data, I just don't see this as a viable option for most "average" users. I bought myself an 80 GB SmartDisk FireLite Drive for around $80, new, on eBay. This unit actually does fit in your shirt pocket. I partitioned a boot drive and 3 other partitions containing various important files. I use SuperDuper as my BU app. Before leaving the house I do an incremental BU of all partitions. That rarely takes more than 5 minutes. I then head out with the drive in my pocket and never worry about being burglarized or the house burning down. If something were to happen, my drive contains every app and file I need to sit at another machine and not skip a beat.
I guess these services may be attractive to some people, but I believe most would benefit from a solution similar to the one I have outlined, or, for smaller GB requirements, a single or dual-layer DVD burning scenario.
Just my 2¢.
Regards,
Frank
P.S. Hate the name. Where I come from "clunk" means "just died!" Not a good choice for a secure BU service.
If you're serious about backing-up - at 15¢ a GB - go here: http://www.jungledisk.com/ -
I read the tutorial on Java Security but I couldn't understand it. I think I have to know first what authentication, authorization, SSL (and other related matters) are and how they work. I already did a seach on google for this but there are many. Please recommend to me any free online book (for novice) where I can get a basic knowlege about security and how they works. Thanks for the help
Google for JCE and stuff from the IBM site. They have pretty good tutorials.

Does HP still offer Free Online Classes? This page has a link, but it requests authentication, and I don't have the right access apparently. The link is on the left navigation under Explore.
http://www.hp.com/global/us/en/consumer/digital_photography/free/software/printapp_index.html?jumpid...
I used to enjoy the free online classes at the HP Learning Center, but things have changed. I would enjoy taking some classes again, and am looking for various topics besides printing.
Thank you for any input on this.Apparently, from numerous phone calls to HP folks, they no longer have free online classes for ordinary customers. I didn't speak with anyone who even remembered them, nor could they get me to anyone who would know or remember them. That not only dates me, it tells me of the turnover in their staff. My last email regarding the classes at the Learning Center was dated November 2011 - just a bit over two years ago.
It seems the link you provided is for employees of certain companies who arrange for their employees to be certified in HP things. I had tried various means to log on to the ExpertOne area with no luck. Again, after calls that bounced from one person to another, it seems I don't have access.
It was nice while it lasted. I took some classes before that were very helpful in my sole proprietor business, as well as personal and creative things.
HP needs to at least remove that link and any others that imply they have free classes now for ordinary people... ones who use their products for creative purposes at home or in small businesses (real small businesses).
Thanks for your response. -

Comparison for iPod Users: Free Online Converter & DVD to iPod Converter
Compare two channels of obtaining video sources for iPod: one is using online converter, the other is DVD to iPod Converter. After the general introduction of the two methods, I will analyze their advantages and disadvantages for you to choose according to your need.
Part One: Enjoy YouTube (online videos) on iPod
Instruction: a useful website to convert online video freely: http://www.vixy.net/
For vixy, you can just copy the URL of the online video into the âURLâ blank of the vixy, then choose the format you want to convert to. Click âStartâ. For a short time, the conversion will be finished. You can click the âDownload the converted videoâ to restore the file.
http://www.aiseesoft.com/images/guide/vixy.jpg
Advantages: Free online video converter. No software to install. Only a few clicks you can get the converted file after a short while. The most important thing is that online video sources are numerous and original, so you can get the first-hand sources in time through it. Some personal DVs are also shared with you.
Disadvantages: They set limitation of the length and size of the video. The classical movies usually are not on line available. Even if existed, the quality of image and sound is inferiors.
Part Two: Enjoy DVD movies on iPod Touch, iPod Nano, iPod Classic, iPhone, iPhone (3G), Apple TV
We usually bought classical DVD movies for collection or regular watching later, but DVD cannot be copied directly into iPod for us to appreciate it at anytime and anywhere. On this occasion, we need to convert DVD to the format, video and audio settings (Resolution, Bitrate, Frame Rate, etc) supported by your iPod player.
Instruction: the way to convert DVD to iPod: using Aiseesoft DVD to iPod Converter http://www.aiseesoft.com/dvd-to-ipod-converter.html
Install and run Aiseesoft DVD to iPod Converter
http://www.aiseesoft.com/download/dvd-to-ipod-converter.exe
http://www.aiseesoft.com/images/guide/screen.gif
Step 1: Click âLoad DVDâ button to import your DVD
Step 2: Use âProfileâ drop-down list to choose your output format.
Step 3: Click âSettingsâ for setting your video parameters.
At last click âStartâ button to start your conversion.
More tips:
1. Merge into One File
If you want to merge the selected contents into one file you can check the "Merge into one file" option. As default the merged file is named after the first selected file (either a title or a chapter)
2. Movie Effect
You can set the brightness, contrast, saturation of the video and volume of the audio.
3. Trim Movie
It can help you to capture the segment of your movie.
http://www.aiseesoft.com/images/guide/dvd-to-ipod-thread-trim.jpg
4. Crop Video
You can remove black edge of your DVD movie and get any playing area of the video by using its "Crop Mode" function. You can also select "Zoom Mode" to extrude your video slightly to adjust to your portable devices so you can get the best video quality.
http://www.aiseesoft.com/images/guide/dvd-to-ipod-thread-crop.jpg
5. Take Snapshot
It allows you to capture your favorite pictures from your movie.
Advantages: In this way, you can make full use of your DVD: not only in DVD player, but your iPod player. The function of effecting and trimming allows you to clip the segment of the DVD movies complying with your will. You can enjoy more movies taking full advantage of your spare time while relaxing or traveling.
Disadvantages: DVD movies are usually popular, lacking of individualization. You can not share others' DVs.
With these two ways, we can enjoy the pleasure videos bring to us as much as we like. Have fun!Depending on what update your iPod is, you may need
to dowload YAMB to make sure the videos play well on
your iPod. If you are watching a converted video on
your iPod and it freezes suddenly and this problem
continues, you need to download YAMB and convert the
files already converted with videora iPod converter
with YAMB, this will only take a few minutes.
I hope this helps you out.
Nope. All that a person with that problem should have to do is just update their iPod firmware to 1.1.1 with the newest updater, as that issue has been resolved in the latest firmware. -
CS3 Free Transform Tool does not work at all for distortion
I tried everything, worked with vector objects of different configurations and rasterized objects. Nothing works. When I press Free Transform Tool and go to bounding box corner it become rotate or resize tool. When I click a little bit inside the bounding box and hold Command Key (I tried many keys and without keys) it just moves the whole object, it did not select just one point that I need. Envelope Mesh does not work for the same reason, but I do not need mesh tool. I have Illustrator 13.02, Mac OS 10.4.11
The Free Transform Tool functions exactly as the main selection tool. Please help.I STILL cannot get this to work. I have tried everything suggested in this thread. I have followed the directions in the help menus explicitly. I have tried grouping, ungrouping. I have tried it on type, on type changed to outlines, on simple rectangles. Without success.
When I try to use the free transform tool and hover over a corner of the bounding box, I get either a double-headed corner arrow, a rotation arrow, or a move arrow. Using the first two, dragging the point and then holding down the control/command key results only in a scaling of the object.
Should I restart? Should I re-install? What should I do?
Best,
Fielden
