Has anyone ever used a livescribe smartpen with a Mac?

I am about to purchase a livescribe smartpen which will record handwritten notes and audio and store them to a computer. Most of the promotion about the smartpen describes its use with a PC. How does it work with a MacBook Pro?

You may not get an answer here.  I took a look at the Amazon reviews for the Lightscribe, and there were very few that dealt with the Mac, and the best review was decidely negative.  Not good.

  • Has anyone successfully used a "WD My Book for Mac" via NAS (plugged into USB port on router) as a Time Machine back-up drive?

    Has anyone successfully used a "WD My Book for Mac" via NAS (plugged into USB port on router) as a Time Machine back-up drive? Apple support tech tried to tell me it wasn't possible and that the only NAS Time Machine could back up to is the Time Capsule, but I'm not buying it. I know it's doable, but I'm having a hard time figuring out which External HDDs will work and which ones won't.  If not My Book for Mac, is there an External HDD that will work? (Running OS X 10.9.1 - Mavericks, btw...)

    Given the nature of backups, my recommendation has always been to use a strategy that is unequivocally supported by Apple. As you already determined Apple Support unequivocally informed you that your proposal will not work, unless your router is an Apple AirPort Extreme or Time Capsule.
    The exhaustive list of devices supported by Time Machine amounts to the following:
    AirPort Time Capsule's built-in hard disk (any model)
    External USB hard disk drive connected to a Time Capsule (any model)
    External USB hard disk drive connected to an AirPort Extreme (current model only)
    A hard disk drive directly connected to your Mac
    That is all.
    Use whatever backup device you want, but you should be aware that this site is full of reports of misery from hapless individuals who had been using NAS devices for Time Machine backups, only to find that they were incomplete, corrupted, or useless when they were required. Apple won't care if you lose your data while using a Time Machine configuration specifically excluded from their technical support documents.

  • Has anyone successfully used the Zoom R16 with Audition?

    I’ve tried just about everything, but can’t seem to get Audition to run with the Zoom R16.  As noted in a recent post, I updated both the Zoom R16 firmware and widows driver, but that doesn’t seem to make the 2 work harmoniously. 
    Has anyone had success getting the 2 to work together?  If so, what’s the trick?!
    Thanks in advance

    I'm intrigued - what is actually disharmonious?

  • Has anyone ever used web start in large scale ?

    Dear friends,
    have you ever used some web start application in large scale ?
    i.e., have you distributed some real application with web-start?
    I�m doing such experience here and I�m a bit afraid about several problems in the final user machine - such as java version, browser incompatibility and mainly with the ugly WebStart cache problems.

    can you give a bit more detail on what exactly you're afraid of? is this a www application? internal business app? etc.
    for example you can force your java version in java web-start,etc...

  • Can I use my iPod, which has always been used on a PC, with my Mac?

    Our PC is finally on its last leg, and I was wondering if I could my iPod with my Mac without damaging it.  We're getting rid of the PC rather soon, so I'd appreciate an answer as quickly as possible.  Thank you!

    Yes, you can sync a PC formatted iPod with a Mac. Just remember that syncing with your Mac will take off any Music/Movies/etc. that are on your iPod and put on the stuff that's on your Mac.

  • Has anyone ever used their iPad to remotely connect to a iMac and use programs like Photoshop on their iPad?

    Hi everyone,
    I had an iMac at home, but I've recently taken on some freelance work and they would like me to come into the office every now and then. I don't want to purchase a laptop and I know you can remotely connect to your desktop with an iPad, but I need to know if anyone has ever done that and successfully used programs like Photoshop on their iPad. Is there lag time when trying to use the software? Or is it just not possible and I should consider getting a laptop again?
    Thank you!

    iPads are not exact laptop replacements. If you need to be using Photoshop, then buy a normal laptop computer.
    Using a remote access app on an IPad or any tablet conputer  to remote access your computer to operate will be quite a lot slower and clumsier than just having a laptop with a normal OS and Photoshop application installed.

  • Has anyone ever used this CF8 host?

    Hi,
    I'm currently using HostMySite - but it's just for my
    personal site and it seems like I'm paying just too much for what I
    use it for $23.95 USD (about £12 GBP) per month.
    This company (
    http://www.hostingfuse.com/index.php/fuseaction/hosting.webhosting
    ) seem to be Australian, offering reasonable CF8 hosting for $10
    AUD (about £4.5 GBP).
    Just wanted to know if anyone has used them and what they're
    like? Or if someone has alternative solutions?
    Thanks,
    Mikey.

    You may only want an Australia Host but I like
    http://www.gearhost.com They are
    located in CO
    and have very reasonable prices. The nice thing is
    that you can use CF, ASP or PHP with any account.

  • Has anyone ever used an invisibleShield on a Mac laptop?

    I have just ordered a White Macbook and am concerned about the yellow discoloration issue. I was thinking of ordering an invisibleShield from www.shieldzone.com and I wondered if anyone had any experience with the product? They just released the 13" Macbook shield in the last day or so.

    are you sure heating cause discolorization? I doubt it because iBook has the same materials on surface as well. even macbook heating get more than iBook, it's not too much higher to damage the surface.
    by the way, as far as you keep vent clear, invidisible shield will be fine. I just visited that site. there are three options they sell. but I don't recommend that you buy bottom shield. for top plate where Apple logo is glow, and touchpad, palm rest, it will be fine. I also consider to get one, too.

  • Has anyone ever used Windows Server failover | SQL failover?

    We run a SQL Failover cluster and it has to be the same.
    All nodes in a failover cluster must be of the same platform, either 32-bit or 64-bit, and must run the same operating system edition and version. Also, 64-bit SQL Server editions must be installed on 64-bit hardware running the 64-bit versions of Windows operating systems. 

    I was looking to see if anyone has exposure to this and if you can actually run failover with two disparate OS's, ie. Server 2008 R2 and Server 2012.

  • Has anyone ever used Dynaflo LIQUID-ARMOR?

    It's discounted through Apple User Groups... anyone know anything about it. Anyone used it? I use iKlear once a week (or as needed) but this is something else.
    Thanks,
    Clinton

    Clinton.  I just bought and tried this on a recommendation a few days ago.  It seem's simple enough to use.  You simply wipe it on, let it cure, then buff off your screen with the included micro-fiber cloth.  I can tell there is something there but I can't say 100% that it is actually providing "additional" protection.  It does not change the appearance of the screen or add any "tackiness" to the screen.  The screen looks as good with it on, as with it off.  Exactly what I want as I do not want to use a screen cover on my iPhone 5 and iPad.  I figure for the $19.95 I paid at CompUSA, it can't hurt.  And there is enough to treat multiple devices more than once.
    Hope this helps.

  • Has anyone successfully used new custom templates with bookings?

    I have been trying to use an alternate list template for bookings as a fallback for the standard list I have which is outputting json.
    I saw recently in the september release that custom templates are out (thank goodness).
    I have tried:
    {module_booking,a template="fallback_list.tpl"}
    {module, booking,a template="fallback_list.tpl"}
    This is from http://helpx.adobe.com/business-catalyst/partner/using-custom-templates-modules.html it looks wrong to me.
    Then I tried renaming it to html cause I read http://forums.adobe.com/docs/DOC-2573
    Then I tried relocating it, removing the underscore, adding commas, removing commas, single quotes and double quotes.
    But they all return No events found.
    {module_booking,a, }
    Returns the expected amount of bookings.
    Any thoughts?

    Hi,
    Thanks Mario.  http://npaqueensland.businesscatalyst.com/events
    The events done with backbone and JSON are working, above those there is a bar of filters (not yet hooked up properly), and directly above those filters is the part I am having an issue with.
    Thanks,
    Allan.

  • Has anyone ever used a Yamaha Robot Controller (SRC-X)?

    I just inherited this controller and I'd like to use it with LabVIEW. I just don't know where to start with it. Any help is greatly appreciated.

        Alyssa,
    I have been able to get communication working with the ERCX.  It was fairly straight-forward and so I'm wondering if you have the correct serial settings.  9600 baud, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, odd parity, XON/XOFF handshaking.  I leave the termination character enabled so that the and the default termination character will work for this "\n".  The controller actually sends back a "\r\n" termination, but with the "\n" last, this sould work.  I then call the VISA Read and tell it to read up to 10k bytes.  Once it finds that termination character, though, it will stop the read. 
    I've attached two screenshots that might be helpful.  You probably already are aware of this since you've had the communication successfully via HyperTerminal, but in the LabVIEW sense, it's helpful to take your "Write Buffer" string input and set it so that it's in "\" Codes Display mode.  This will allow you to manually type in the "\r\n" you need at the end of your command.  Also, each command starts with the "@". 
    Let me know if I can be of further help.
    Jim

  • Has anyone ever gotten a MacBook pro with *********** pre loaded on it?  I went into itunes, and everything was empty except for movies where there were three 15 second pornographic videos.

    As I stated in the title, I ordered my Macbook Pro from apple online.  I have had it for 4 days now and I was looking to transfer all of my songs from my mac mini to my macbook. 
    I opened up itunes and all of the categories were blank except the movies, and there were 3 of the same clips there.  It was a 15 second video that involved a guy, a girl and a slip-n-slide. 
    I have concerns as to what else is on this thing as far as viruses and other pornographic videos, even illegal material.  I was also hoping my daughter can use this for school.   The last thing I would want is for her to be doing something and stumble upon a file that would surely be inappropriate.
    Any advice?

  • Has anyone ever used a Varian Sentorr unit?

    I have a BA2 model, and although I can write serial commands in Hyperterminal and display the Sentorr's answer there, when I use the Labview Example Code (serial communication) it times out before answering. If you bridge the serial pins, Labview will read what it writes... So why doesn't the Sentorr recognize my code?

    Are you sending a termination character at the end of your command. Hyperterminal does this for you but you have to add this yourself when you write your own program or use the example. The term character is usually a CR or LF (check your documentation). In the example, you can right click on the string control and select '\" Codes Display and enter a \r for carriage return or \n or a line feed. You could also use the concantenate string function to add the character to the string written - use the constants on the string palette or you can use the VISA property node to automatically add the term character to every write.

  • Has anyone ever used the f:runGlobalApplication/ tag?

    The taglib documentation is not very helpful. My best guess is that this tag is meant to execute a global activity. I tried testing this out in Studio, but I get an error saying that Process '/' is not available. This kind of makes sense, as I don't see any way to identify which process the activity may reside in. A search of "runGlobalApplication" on the forum turned up zero results, I'm hoping someone out there knows how this tag works.
