Good or Bad thing

Hi,
I am now a ex MEGA 180 owner. As some of you may remember, I had some problems with my unit. Got a mail yesterday from my reseller telling me that the distributor here in Sweden could not provide me with a new unit, due to lack of knowledge when they would get new from MSI. I got my cash back. Lurking around here in Sweden, I found that none of the resellers could say a date for new MEGA shipment. Some had even stop selling the MEGA. I will look for some that might have it in stock. The good news is that the price tag is 600 SEK less now.
Is the problems with delivery only a Swedish matter or has MSI some world wide problems. Is it due to good selling or have MSI some problems?
I Wish You All A Happy New Year
Richard

I have sent them a mail, but no answer yet. Will give them a call on monday. itservice.se in Stockholm have two in stock.
I have been spending some hours on the net trying to find a MEGA 180. I have now come to the conclusion that only the Delux version is available here in Sweden. I have found two resellers that have the MEGA 180 Delux in stock. All other reseller that had the unit listed could not provide any date for next shipment.
My worries are what if my MEGA breaks down again. The distributor of MSI here in Sweden have no units in stock, and they have no spare parts in stock. At least not a motherboard. Is it risky to buy a MEGA 180.

Good and bad things about Bridge CS6 Beta

The good thing first: No memory leaks anymore. No crashing, no freezing, no write errors when running Bridge scripts on large numbers of image files. Ah—what a relief!
In comparison this this, the bad things are just trifles. First—when selecting the exposure data to show up under each thumbnail then the aperture number will get rounded down to the nearest integer. So, for example, apertures of f/1.4, f/1.7, f/2, f/2.8, f/3.5, f/5.6, f/6.3, f/6.7 will get presented as 1.0, 1.0, 2.0, 2.0, 3.0, 5.0, 6.0, 6.0, respectively. In the EXIF data, the aperture numbers are correct, and Camera Raw 7.0 will display the correct numbers. Second—when starting Bridge CS6 or Photoshop CS6 then the monitor will get switched off for a brief moment. The screen goes completely black for two seconds or so, then returns as if it was in stand-by mode. It's nothing severe but very annoying.
Windows XP (32 bit) SP3; CPU Athlon Dual-Core 64 X2 6000+; RAM 4 GB installed, 3 GB used; graphic card AMD Radeon HD 2600 Pro (AMD Catalyst Display Driver from March 2012 installed); monitor Dell Ultra-Sharp 2407WFP-HC (24", 1920×1200 px) connected via DVI, no second monitor.

What camera produced the files?
Doesn't matter. I have files from two different cameras, Sony A900 and Leica M9, all shot in both JPEG and raw format (ARW for the Sony; DNG 1.0 for the Leica). The issue occurs with the thumbnails of both the JPEG and raw files. For the very same files, the issue is not there in Bridge CS5.

Well ... the previous version of the display driver actually was the latest, at the time of installing CS6 Beta. The current driver version came out only two days ago.

Goods and Bads with the 6110 Navigator

Hi
New user of this forum and a proud owner of a Nokia 6110 Navigator. I had the 6280 but after 2 SW upgrades and still problem with it, I gave up.
First impression of the 6110 is good, but I found a couple of small things that ”irritates” me.
1 – The timer function when you write “0200” and press options instead of green (call) button.
2 – The original headset is too cheap to be an expensive phone like this, should be more like Koss “plug-in-your-ear” kind of headphones, instead of the small “put-close-to-your-ear” thing that is included.
Also, the straight up cable from the top of the phone is no good. Makes the phone lie bad in the pocket. I also guessing that this cable is going to snap after a while. Why not a 90 degree “adapter” or something?
3 – When you sending an SMS, on my 6280 you could choose “last used number” or something like that, now you have to choose name, and then number, and then OK to go back to the SMS.
Well.. that’s it so far. Anyone else have goods and bads about this phone ?
mvh / regards
Timmy

hi im havin same issues!!
i went from 6280 to 6110 after i smashed it
1.first off i didnt kno of the timer option...good bcoz it was annoyin not havin a stopwatch

5. on my 6280, i had a shortcut menu as mi left select button, cant do this now
6. power button is end call button, lotsa accidental turn offs
7. cant turn off start up tone
oh well i still like it

Is this good or bad in terms of battery life?

So I have a question, my usage is 1 hour, 11 minutes; standby is 13 hours, 29 minutes. This is since the last full charge on my iphone4s and now the battery is at 68%. Is this good or bad, and the thing is when I used certain apps like words with friends even for 2-3mins I actually noticed the battery life going down 2%, and I know that because I have the option for showing the battery percentage switched to on. It's frustating that I'm doing the simplest task like going through settings and the battery is draining so quickly. Does anyone have and suggestions about increasing the battery life?

The short battery life is an issue of iOS5 that should be fixed with the next updates. ( also hope that Apple would fix it fast)

Migrating assistant good or bad

Hi guys...
This is my first post so be gentle... I just have a small question for you guys and girls... what is your view on the migrating assistant, is it good or bad... i have heard someone saying that it migrates some files over that mess up your system... and if it does how do i know which to delete.. and second of all can you choose exactely what to bring over or does it just take everything... is targetdisk mode a better option... maybe a bit more timeconsuming but safer...?? Please give me your opinions... Thanks... ohh forgot to say, reason why im asking is that im planning on buying the infamous MBP..
Mac OS X (10.4.6)
ibook g4 1.33 Mac OS X (10.4.6) Really want MBP

I would say that this is a WARNING [capital letters - if you can't tell already ;- ) ]
My friend - who is a computer tech [Mac & PC] since the Apple II days. For all of you that don't know - that is 30 years ago. He bought his first BRAND NEW computer ever - yesterday - A MacBook Pro 2.16 w/ 7200RPM HD [off the shelf at a local Apple store]. He has made a LOT of money from repairing computers - he didn't have to buy this MacBook, because he has EVERYTHING else - he bought it because the MBP represented the ability to have the Mac OS + WIN XP on the same machine. And also - his clients were asking questions about the MBP, and he had to know - first hand, what they were about.
He used the migration assistant to transfer his files from his PowerBook G4 - 17" [1.67MHz] - and there was disasterous consequences! After the transfer - the new MBP wouldn't boot to the desktop - until several restarts later. Finally when he could - there was some very weird stuff going on.
1. No Airport recoginition
2. Screen stayed on full bright [couldn't be dimmed]
3. His BlueTooth cellphone would shut off [I know - this is crazy - but it is true, the MBP somehow killed the cellphone connection!]
4. Kernel panics - [many]
He [with 30 years experience] promptly returned the MBP to the Apple store - and showed it to the "Genius" - who immediately gave him a brand new one.
He [or the "genius"] never had any reason to doubt the "integrity" of the "Migration Assistant". My friend thought that his MBP was defective - and the Apple "Genius" thought the same thing.
So - he took it [the new one] home - and used the "Migration Assistant" again - and the exact same thing happened!
Finally - he just decided to re-install the whole operating system [clean install] - and now everything is fine.
If I were you - I wouldn't trust the "Migration Assistant".

Is leaving my MBP plugged into mains a bad thing?

Is there an FAQ on this kind of stuff anywhere? I bet my questions are very common.
1 - Is leaving my MBP plugged into mains power a bad thing? Someone told me today that it's bad for the battery. I've had the thing about 6 weeks now, yet I've only gone through 5 cycles.
2 - I've not yet run the battery completely down at all. Is that good/bad/doesn't matter?
3- Is allowing the machine to completely drain itself of power (till it conks out) at all likely to damage it?
4 - What's all this about battery calibrating?
As I say, if there's a FAQ...
Cheers!

By and large, laptop batteries today are maintenance free. Just charge them when needed and don't spend a lot of time worrying about it. Some people seem absolutely **** bent on finding something they can fret over with their laptops instead of just enjoying using them. Learn from their example, and don't allow yourself to fall into that same trap.

Uh...I'm not sure if this is good or bad.

Alrighty, I recently downloaded cocktail, and did an Apple Hardware Test because I was having force reboot issues and I wanted to make sure it wasn't a hardware problem. Now, it's been about 2 days, and I haven't had to force reboot because of an application freezing, but I just noticed something new. Before I installed cocktail, it used to take my computer about 10 minutes to start up after I pressed the power button (the less peripherals I had, the less time it took). It would spend a few minutes on a screen with a flashing globe, then a few minutes on a screen with the finder face flashing interchangeably with a question mark, then it would go to the gray screen with the apple on it, then to the login window. I turned on my computer this morning, with my USB printer cable and ethernet cable plugged in, and it went straight to the gray screen with the apple, then to the login window. Is this a good thing or bad thing?

As far as the flashing question mark and globe icons are concerned, your computer had lost track of its startup volume and was searching through the possibilities. The globe icon indicates that it is looking for a network to start from and the question mark indicates that it is looking for an OS X volume. To fix this, if you haven't already, go to System Preferences > Startup Disk and reselect your internal HD as the startup volume.
From what you have described, this issue does seem to have corrected itself, and the faster start up is what one would normally expect. I think that you have absolutely no reason to reinstall your system.

Virus & other bad things

Hope this an appropriate place for this question. Is my Mac susceptible using BC/Win XP to all those bad things out there? If so what is the best/good protection application?

The free Windows Security Essential also gets high marks and of course well supported and integrated.
During RC I used Norton 360 but didn't feel it was worth it (I own NIS2009 etc too but needed something I felt during the 8 months public beta). MSE really seems to be all that's needed and rated 98%.

I currently have Snow Leopard and am thinking of upgrading to Lion but have heard some bad things about it. Should I upgrade or not? What do you like/dislike about Lion?

It is indeed all down to what you need to do with your machine.   Snow leopard is an excellent OS and as Baltwo suggests you have to check out your current apps and programs because PPC won't work on any higher OS than the one you have.
Andy's comment is very interesting and, I suspect, insider knowledge based    Certainly I would wait for Mavericks now it is on the horizon ... and then add six months or so for the bugs to be ironed out.
Good luck, whatever you do.   I'm staying with Snow Leopard.

The thread for bad things about Premiere CC

In the interests of fair comparison we have a thread about the good things, so what are the bad things

No more Encore Chapter Marker button (or shortcut).
Jim, I agree with lots of your issues. I'll add two myself below. But for the Chapter Marker...I'm pretty sure I was able to go into Keyboard Shortcuts and type "Chapter" and chapter marker came up. I set it to the letter E for Encore and ignored the previous E shortcut, but you could do anything. Now it adds a chapter marker with one click. See if this works for you.
My main two issues so far with Premiere Pro CC (I used it only for one full day but then had to leave and go back to CS6 due to issue #1):
1) The Multicam Bug. I'd elaborate but there's a whole thread to describe just how bad this bug is:
http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1236698?start=40&tstart=0
2) Appearance Issue: If you switch appearance to "Light Background" Premiere no longer adjusts other colors making some things disappear or be very hard to see. You basically can't see your in to out points! In CS6, working with the light background was just as optimized as the dark background. For example, with PPro CC, if you mark an in/out point on the source monitor or timeline it's light in color. Switch to light background and that color stays light and disappears into the background so you almost can't see it. In Premiere CS6 that in to out point turned light blue so you could still see it. Also, selected clips in the timeline are white and sort of blend in with the now light background. Dark background looks cool, but it can be hard on the eyes so I'd hope Adobe fixes some of these appearance issues so the light background is actually usable.
There's lots to like for sure, and I'm sure I'll have more for this list...but this was my "first impression".

Placing a PDF file in an InDesign Doc and PDF again for a vendor- Good or Bad?

Current debate in the graphics department is
Is it good or bad to place a PDF (general Press Quality) into an InDesign document and then creating a new PDF file with print vendor settings from that document?
My thought is that you in some cases are double compressing, lower dpi images getting compressed, RGB color mode images okay on layout but now are converted to CMYK and shift in the PDF.
Are there other issues and if so what are they.
Also is there an easy way to check ppi, color mode and compression of an acrobat PDF? I mean other than doing a preflight and searching into each image folder twenty levels deep. FlightCheck and Enfocus are not options,
too many vendors and not enough time.
Thank you all in advance for your words of wisdom.

Dov, I just got off the phone with a trusted professional in the Prepress field at a quite reputable print house, and he said "Dov is the guru of PDFs, ask him this...Will the InDesign CS3 preflight see the characteristics of a PDF (color mode, dpi(ppi), compression) if the original placed PDF is created as a pdf .X4 (1.7)? Ask him also if you were to use one form of compression (say lossless) in the original PDF, and then another form(say lossy) in the vendor PDF would it hold both or convert the first PDF compression to the second form?"
Any other responses are also welcomed.

When you get a apple receipt for itunes songs and you paid with a itunes gift card do they charge you or give you store credit what's store credit is it good or bad or does it charge you if you have a free account with no credit cards at all is it bad?

iTunes credits are, for example, if you download a song from the store and it's found to be corrupt - if the track can't be fixed then iTunes support will tend to give you a song credit for a free download.
When you purchase music from the store then any credits that you have will be used first, then any balance that you have (e.g. from iTunes gift cards or allowances), and any remaining amount will be taken from your credit card.

My cousin's iphone gave it to me but the bad thing is, it has a icloud and i can't access the phone. my cousin is involved to a motorcycle accident and he got a amnesia so he didn't remember anything to this phone. I entered the password so many times so that i can't activate the icloud account. Please, I need to access this phone immediately for emergency purposes. You are my only hope. The phone model is a1429 Verizon (Factory Unlocked). P.S apology for my bad English.

What is a good download broadband speed. Mine is 4.17mb/s. Is that good or bad?

What is a good download speed. Mine is 4.17mb/s is this good or bad?

It's average. Do you have cable or DSL? I'm moving into an apartment that has cable speeds of up to 20 megabits per second. Cable speeds do vary and, at the low end, run around 5 megabits per second.
So - cable or DSL. If cable, call your local ISP and see if they have a package with higher Internet speeds.
