Getting started -- in the most basic way

OK, I'm not very techie but this goes beyond. As I was pulling my ipod out of the box, it turned on and accidentally, the language selected was Japanese. How do I change it back to English?
How do I turn up the volume?

To change the language you turn on the iPod and then go to Settings>Language and pick English by scrolling through the list. This might be difficult to find if it's now in Japanese so it might be easier to restore your iPod. This will erase the hard drive, reload the software and put it back to default settings so make sure you have all your songs backed up in iTunes: Restoring iPod to Factory Settings
If you are new to the iPod you might find these links useful:

What is the most effective way to get my imac 2 ghz intel core duo 2 10.4.11 to be able to run 10.5 and sync with my iphone 4s?

What is the most effective way to get my imac 2 ghz intel core duo 2 10.4.11 to be able to run 10.5 and sync with my iphone 4s?

As your Mac should run Snow Leopard provided it has at least 1GB memory, that would be a good deal easier and very much cheaper than trying to find a 10.5 install disc.
Snow Leopard costs $30 approx from the online Apple store (£26 if you're in UK)
You'll need to update Tiger to 10.4.11 with the combo installer first (unless you're just erasing the disc and starting fresh) You can then update SL from 10.6.3 to 10.6.8 with its combo installer.
For comparison, 10.5 Leopard is currently running about $130 from Apple (if still available) and more on Amazon etc.
This info for Leopard courtesy of TexasMacMan;
Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard installation system requirements
http://support.apple.com/kb/TA24950
Leopard is no longer available at the Apple Store but may be available by calling Apple Phone Sales @ 1-800-MY-APPLE (1-800-692-7753).
If you can't obtain a retail install DVD from Apple, look on eBay or Google the installer part numbers to possibly find at an on-line store. Here's what to look for:
MB427Z/A Leopard 10.5.1 install DVD
MB576Z/A Leopard 10.5.4 install DVD
MB021Z/A Leopard 10.5.6 install DVD (single user)
MB022Z/A Leopard 10.5.6 install DVD (5-user family pack)

I'm trying to find an easier way to import my music to iTunes. Even the most basic music player can scan your computer and import found music into your library. I don't want to move my MP3s into the iTunes folder, I don't want iTunes doing any conversion.

I'm trying to find an easy way to import my MP3 collection into iTunes without moving, copying or changing it.
I can't believe that iTunes doesn't have this feature, as even the most basic music players always have this.
I only use iTunes to sync my iPod, as I like Media Monkey to play my MP3s.
I have 137GB of MP3s, mainly from my ripping my CDs, LPs and downloading from Amazon. I've only purchased a handful of songs from iTunes,
Any ideas on how to do this easily?

It does have that feature. Why would you assume that it doesn't?

Okay, no problem.
If the top bar menu is not displayed in top left of your iTunes Library, use the CTRL+B keys to turn it on:
On that menu, use File/Add Folder to Library and navigate to the folder you wish to add:
If you wish to add just one song, notice the File/Add File to Library command on that menu as well.
Alternatively, you can drag-and-drop from the file's location into your iTunes Library.
That's all there is to it.
By the way, it is possible to have Amazon MP3s downloaded to your computer and then automatically added to the iTunes Library by the Amazon downloader. I do it all the time.

iMac G5 - you are at the end of the line, though you may be able to upgrade your RAM, or hard drive.
iMac CoreSolo, CoreDuo - you can upgrade to 1 GB of RAM or 2 GB of RAM and get up to 10.6.8.
iMac Core2Duo - you can upgrade to 2 GB of RAM or more and get up to 10.7.2.
Go to Apple menu -> About This Mac to determine which Mac model you have.
Here's what you have to watch out for on 10.6 to 10.6.8.
Here's what you need to watch out for on 10.7 to 10.7.2.
Some stores may not have 10.6 installer CD available, or may not have 10.7 Flash drive available. For those you have to make the purchase from elsewhere,
and bring it in to the store with you. http://www.apple.com/retail has phone numbers for all their stores, and extension 5 often will get you a real person at the store, though if yuo don't get it, you might try a different extension.

What is the most reliable way to run one Windows accounting program in Osx 10.5.8?

I have a simple Windows application where I basically do my accounts. I do not want to tie up my Imacs resources with running a full Windows Os "emulation" like Paralells or VMware Fusion just to run a simple accounting program.
I have heard about apps that can run one windows application at the time through a kind of Osx Application which emulates windows some how. Is is true that this is a better way of running my accounting program? Is it reliable? What I do is to punch in invoices and print out reports basically. How much resources does this "consume" to run it in "one simple application mode" in comparison with for example Paralells?
And what is the term for running windows in "one simple application mode"?

I guess you could try the free trial of CrossOver. http://www.codeweavers.com/products/crossover/ You did not say what app you want to run so it is difficult for us to recommend crossover as being able to run the app.
But your question is that you are looking for the "most reliable" way to run a Windows program. In my opinion you need Parallels or Fusion. These run the real Windows OS so my thinking is it is the "most reliable" method of running a Windows app on an Apple computer, other than Boot Camp.
But you said you don't want Parallels. This is probably why you have not received any responses. You eliminated the most reliable and easiest method, in my opinion, when you initially posted. Parallels does not consume any resources until you start it up to use your app. You can close it after you are done with your app. Of course hard drive space is required for storing the OS, your app, and data. But you still need to store your app and data regardless of method you choose.
One more thing, Parallels and Fusion create a virtual machine for running Windows.
So my recommendation, use Parallels or Fusion.

How to bild a graphical wizard in the most proper way?

In some applications there are wizards for creating different things. How are the graphical wizards constructed?
Let´s say there is a two-step way for creating a Person object. In the first step, you have to add some personal information. Then you click on the Next button to get to step 2. If you move the window of step 1 to a another location on the screen and then press the Next button to get to the step 2, then the step 2 window appears at the location of the step 1 window.
Is the most common way to build such a wizard to create JDialogs where the last dialog gets the location coordinats of the previous JDialog?

How are the graphical wizards constructed? a frame/dialog containing a cardlayout JPanel (at BorderLayout.CENTER)
the cardLayout panel contains:
1) a JPanel for 'step1'
2) a JPanel for 'step2'
3) a JPanel for 'step3' (if required)
etc.
next/prev buttons are added to the frame/dialog's BorderLayout.SOUTH,
and are disabled if/when there is no next or previous screen

What is the most efficent way to create both a standard and HD DVD

Hi,
I'm just getting into HD video editing, and I have relatives who will be several years behind me. I will be making HD DVD's for myself to use, but I will also need to make standard DVD's to send to my relatives.I am assuming that the HD DVD's I create will not play in a standard DVD player. I may be wrong. However, If this is correct, is there a particular point in the process of working with Encore where I can make that choice, create the DVD, and then go back and alter it in order to create the other type without destroying and having to redo everything that was done up to that point?

Thank you Hunt. Being ahead of most of the rest of the world and getting the best technology out there can be a pain sometimes. Reading through Jon Geddes' article left me scratching my head several times, and some of it went way over my head, but I'll keep at it, until it sinks in. Some language, terms, and shorthand, I'm sure are simple to understand to a lot of people, but I'm not in that catagory. I'll just keep working at it.

Subject: what is the most efficent way to create both a standard and HD DVD
I would edit the Project in HD in PrPro. The BD authoring part will be straight workflow.
For the SD DVD-Video, you have a few choices. You can Export to DV-AVI Type II for Import into a new Encore Project for the DVD. Some feel that PrPro does not do a good job at down-rezing from HD to SD. For a workflow that will likely yield better quality, see this http://www.precomposed.com/blog/2009/07/hd-to-sd-dvd-best-methods/. If you have PrPro/Encore CS4, then Jeff Bellune's /thread/487134?tstart=0 might be useful to you. Just follow the links to the tutorial.
Good luck,

Hi,
Although I'm learning I am a complete programming / javascript / json / jquery novice so my apologies in advance if this is a stupid question or i have failed to understand the new restful api functionality which is available under this beta.
In the past, where a client has had really specific functionality that was not achievable within the BC framework, I have implented an external php application (with the help of a web developer) and simply linked to it via a sub domain. Obviously not ideal.
My hope is that the new api functionality will open up a range of possibilities that will go some way toward eliminating the need to build extenal applications and simply extend the existing BC framework using the added api functionality.
One example that i would like to move solely on to BC is the following - http://mylist.grocerwatch.com.au/
The above is a grocery pricing comparison website whereby the applicaton highlights the cheapest and best value (comparible) products. The application also allows the user to select from the items displayed to create a shopping list showing where to buy the selected products for the best value. The user can also email, print, or save their shopping list.
My question is for someone who is more farmiliar with the new api and who is perhaps more experienced than me with programming. Would it be possible to create the above solely on BC without sacrificing speed, security, functionality etc?
Thanks.

The most compatible way of offering short movies on a website?

Hi everyone,
I am working on a website which offers links to short movies
which the admin has uploaded. they are in mwv/mpg/avi format. I am
using this object method, I can see them on my systems, but the
client cannot make it to work on their systems. I am looking for
the most compatible way of linking and displaying short movies on
the site. work with PC and mac.
this is my current method that apparently is not fully
compatible:
<cfoutput><embed src="Media/#MediaParam#"
width="408" height="354" autostart="1"
showstatusbar=1></embed></cfoutput>
any help is appreciated in advance..

can the data go from the drive direct to the ATV2?
no.
iTunes must be running to fetch and serve the content to ATV.
I ask as its far easier to connect a ATV2 and a Network drive via cat5, however itd be nice to not have to plug a mac in as well.
if your wireless network is n-capable and doesn't suffer interference problems, that scenario might work.
Possible try to get a older ATV?
good luck with that they are hard to come by. try eBay or something.

What's the most efficient way to transfer to personal domain?

I've been using the cumbersome .Mac address and have spent a lot of time optimizing the site, having also purchased a domain name (which I'll switch to), which is currently masked and forwarded. So what's the most smooth way of using the personal domain without losing all the strides I've made to get bumped up in the rankings? Thanks in advance for your suggestions. www.RedCottageInc.com (that's my future personal domain!)

I'm saying that you give Google the .Mac URL to get to your sitemap but use the registered domain name for normal access.
You are promoting your site with www.RedCottageInc.com but, because it is masked, Google needs your web.mac address to access the verification file and the sitemap so that it can spider your site.
You normally upload your sitemap as "sitemap.xml". You can test its accessibility by entering
http://web.mac.com/username/WebSiteName/Sitemap.xml in your browser.
Google needs this URL to get to the sitemap - visitors will use www.RedCottageInc.com.
Google wants to get to the verification file and the sitemap but your website visitors don't.
I guess all this is confusing if you haven't done it before and I don't know that I am explaining it very well. The best way to get it is to go through all the steps of creating the verification file and sitemap, uploading them to your site folder and adding and verifying in your Google control panel.

What's the most efficient way to serve a file from a servlet?

I have a servlet that does various different things depending on the needs. Sometimes it dynamically generates content, and sometimes all it does is send a file out, with no alteration.
What is the most efficient way to just send a file?
One option:
OutputStream os = response.getOutputStream();
InputStream is = new FileInputStream(...)
(send all the bytes from is to os, the regular way using a buffer)Another option is to say:
RequestDispatcher rd = response.getRequestDispatcher(fileName);
rd.forward();Any other options? What's the prefered way of doing this?
I know the rule of "don't optimize too early" but this is a situation where we need to get the maximum amount of files served with the hardware we have, and it's going to be a lot of static files, so efficiency is important.
Thanks

Ok, that's what I thought. It would be nice if there were a "response.sendStream(InputStream input)" method in the ServletResponse class. Even nicer would be a sendFile or sendChannel or something. This is probably a common usage and it's a place where the container has many opportunities for optimization. For example, it could call the operating systems send_file kernel call so the entire transfer would be done directly from the disk controller to the ether card (on systems that support that).
For now I'll just do my own buffered copy.

Can not get example to work after following instructions given in "Getting Started with the NI LabVIEW C Generator" guide

We explored using sbRIO for our project, for different reasons we ended up going with a different embedded solution . We are currently evaluating the LabVIEW C Generator to convert some of the core analysis routines from LabVIEW to C so the team that will be creating the embedded solution don't have to re-implement them from scratch.
Before converting our code, I followed the instructions given in the "Getting Started with the NI LabVIEW C Generator" manual to create a static library created inCygwin using GNU Compiler Collection (GCC).
I managed to compile the code, but when I type "run GCD.exe" in the Cygwin console, I just see the window flash with no time to see if the result is correct or not. I modified the main.c cde to add a getchar(), but the window still just flashes and now I am left with the GCD process still running and have to kill it using Windows Task Manager.
Has anyone else got this example to run? I am sure I am missing an obvious setting or step, please help me.
More details below.
Thanks,
Fab
Here is a video showing the steps I followed
If you don't want/can't see the video. Here are some screenshots of what I have done so far:

C Function prototype definition:
I copied Makefile located at: C:\Program Files (x86)\National Instruments\LabVIEW 2011\examples\CGenerator\Tutorial\Cygwin
and replaced both Makefile and Makefile.cygwin in the directory where the C code was generated
I also copied main.c from the same location and replaced the one generated
Here is the snapshot of the results after executing "make GCD.exe"
Then to run it I just type
I see a window open and close really quickly and I never see the result. I have tried adding the getchar() line to the main.c file, but still I don't get to see the results.

Hi Kevin,
I hope you had a good Thanksgiving. I am attaching a zip file with the LabVIEW project, my build specification and my version of "Greatest Common Divisor.vi", which should be the same as the one that you have that ships with the LabVIEW C Generator, but just in case. I am also attaching a zip file with the C files generated by the LabVIEW C Generator.
You can also see the video I posted earlier with the steps I followed. I hope you are able to point out where I went wrong.
Thanks,

Play better... just kidding. Set an appropriate quantize value for all the regions in the inspector window. If you are doing live playing and need to synch to that it is MUCH more complicated. If you're new at this it might actually be easier to re-play it.

To recover the photos from an iPod Classic you'll need to use third-party software and the photos gained will be quite low resolution.
