Has anyone tried either "Sandbox" or "IWOW" yet?

I downloaded the trial version of Sandbox and it's very impressive. The sound is far more richer than without it. Does anyone know if this will be made avaiable for use with IPODS as well as ITUNES?
Windows XP

Thanks for the tip. I was hesitating about which navigation software to install, and I just installed Marble. Looks good so far but I still have to test it on a real (short) trip.. maybe today on the way home

Has anyone tried a 3rd party laptop cooling pad?

I have had my macbookpro 2.16 for about 2 1/2 weeks now, temp averages at about 40c during what i normally do, but the base of it is still too hot to comfortablly use on my lap. I have been using a large book as a buffer for the heat, recently I saw some 3rd party cooling pads with fans in them, running of USB power, has anyone tried one?

I use Vantec Lapcool 4. It folds and quite small for transporting (fits nicely into my bag). It uses 2 fans powered either by USB or by AC. Also adds 4 USB ports.
It makes about 10C defference. Since it keeps the case cooler and MBP doesn't build up heat like it used to, so works quite well.
The only con I've found is that the MBP slips a bit on the pad so I bought a package of small, clear, self-adhiesive, non-slip rubber cushions to put on the bottom of the lappad (~$2@Home Depot). Now MBP sits securely without any slippage.

Has anyone tried a 4GB HDD in a Mid 2010 Mac Pro?

Has anyone tried a 4GB HDD in a Mid 2010 Mac Pro? I've read that you could go as high as 3GB with no problems although not supported. With the prices of HDD's dropping, I'd like to add more storage to my system, either internally of externally, but I'd like to get a couple of 4GB drives, and was wondering if anyone has used that combination with a Mid 2010 Mac Pro 8 core.

Drives as large as 16TB are directly supported in Mac OS X and behave well when formatted with GUID partition Table -- the default after 10.4.4.
There is a Bug in the Erase function in Disk Utility from 10.8.4, that is unresolved at this writing. Drives over 2.2TB, once erased with this software as an Internal Drive, the drive cannot be further partitioned or erased by that same software. A fix in 10.9.3 or later is anticipated, but not guaranteed. Older versions work fine. External enclosures with Large Drive support work fine.
Western Digital in particular (and others may soon follow) has also shortened the depth of the mounting holes on certain large drives -- the holes adjacent to the platters -- to allow for the addition of an extra platter on certain large drives. A washer may be required to reduce the effective length the drive mounting screw penetrates into the drive.

Has anyone tried to use Labview with VNC

I am trying to use VNC viewer and Labview to remotely code/control labview application. Lots of right clicks dont show up on the VNC. I guess this happens only for Labview and not for other applications. Has anyone tried to use VNC before? is there a workaround?

Just confirmed that each of the above items works properly in our setup, using either WinME or Linux as the controller of the Win98 host. In the 'Connection Options' screen of the controlling computer I have only 'Auto-Select' and 'Emulate 3 buttons' checked. 'Current User Properties' on the controlled computer has only 'Accept Socket Connections', 'Do Nothing', 'Remove Desktop Wallpaper', 'Poll Foreground Window' and 'Poll Console Windows Only' checked. Hopefully one of the above will make a difference.

Has Anyone tried to use DDE through Applets

I would like to update a client side opened Excel file via the web using DDE ( Windows protocol used to cut and paste between apps ) and an applet.
I guess that the level of security of the sand-box will limit the interaction with the excel application unless the applet jar is signed and certified.
Has anyone tried to develop such application ?
I didnt go through all the DDE technology yet and I am just wondering if there are some great difficulties to overcome.
Any "difficult to find" hints are welcome
Thanks

Thanks for the hint. A good one as I did not know this link.

Has anyone tried to pair the Tzumi bluetooth headphones to their iMac? My iMac will detect the device, connect to it for about 2 seconds, then shows a status of "not connected". Multiple attempts get the same result.

Edge has very clear restrictions, one being that you must have 6 months of clean payment history which you don't. Either wait until April 14, or good luck at Sprint.
I am unsure how it can be determined the payment mix up was the fault of CS, but regardless, the mix up was done. There can be any number of reasons why a payment could be missed without any fault on your part, however you are still the responsible party for the account and must live with the repercussions.

Has anyone tried the new retina display MBP with a projector?

I bought a new MacbookPro with retina display online the other day (hasn't arrived yet). I use this primarily for business doing presentations etc. Has anyone tried connecting a projector using the Thunderbolt VGA adapter? Just curious if it'll work.
Thanks

Similar problem. I used my macbook Pro Retina with my Thunderbolt to VGA adapter all through the fall, and never had any trouble with it. Just before Christmas I got a Thunderbolt display.
Since that time, whenever I connect the projector, I get a black screen. I can see and move the mouse, but nothing else. Other computers still work with the projector.
I'm not certain if the Thunderbolt Display has anything to do with this or not, but it's just the timing that it happened.
Grateful for anyone that can offer help!

Has anyone tried Thunderbird with Mavericks?

Given that Mail is so completely useless at the moment, has anyone tried Thunderbird under Mavericks?

Hi mmollo22. I use an external monitor with my iMac - Dell U2412 connected via RGB
Mail window on Dell - Reply window appears then almost immediately disappears UNLESS
                                        1) Full screen mode
                                        2) Pre-existing Reply window exists and is visible
Mail window on iMac - Reply window appears on Dell regardless of pre-existing windows. Full screen mode reply
window appears on the iMac.
Others are having Gmail difficulties. I haven't tested mine thoroughly yet, but it seems unaffected, which would also be strange.

Has anyone tried to use the Online Edition of Quickbooks and Tiger?

I work from home as an editor. My employer has just set up payroll using the Online Edition of Quickbooks. When I tried to to login I got this message from Quickbooks:
"For business and tech reasons we designed Online Edition specifically to run on Windows. We do not offer an alternative version at this time. Customers have reported using a PC emulator, such as Microsoft's Virtual PC, to run Online Edition on their Macs. This may decrease application performance in terms of speed. We encourage you to research this approach to see whether it will work for you."
Has anyone tried this?
Also, they set up Online Edition to run with Internet Explorer. I use Safari.

i donot know the server he used in his example. All you need is to
replace the server deployment descriptors he used to weblogic descriptors. then rebuild. go to admin tool--localhost:7001/console
and login with weblogic as username and password
then on ejb you can then deploy the ejb.read on the console.

Has anyone tried changing the drummer on a drummer part that has already been placed into a track stack?

Has anyone tried changing the drummer on a drummer part that has already been placed into a track stack?
I find that if I do that, the parts in the stack all get merged together with no way to expand them (ie the triangle you would click on to expand the stack disappears).
I believe this is a bug, and wonder if anyone else has encountered it?

Has anyone tried pre-compression to improve image quality?

I am having a hard time creating a usable disk image in iDVD from my 1 hr 45 min FCE movie. Portions of the video are extremely pixelated, usually the grainier, lo-light clips.
Since I don't have Compressor or DVD Studio Pro to use to get more control over the compression, I considered trying to "pre-compress" my video by exporting the entire master sequence using Quicktime conversion to an Mpeg4 format and playing with the data rate so that it would be well under the 4 GB limit of a DVD5. Then I was going to re-import the Mpeg4 into a new FCE sequence, add chapter markers and export again as Quicktime movie into iDVD.
My reasoning is that iDVD will no longer have to compress the file and the pixelization won't be there if it isn't there in the Mpeg4. Has anyone tried anything like this to overcome iDVD's compression and get more control?
If you think I should post over at iDVD forum please let me know.
Thanks in advance,
Mike

What you want to do does not make sense. You are going to ADD more compression
iDVD will compress your video no matter what you do ... it has to, in order to create the MPEG2 that comprises a DVD. iDVD will always do this ... even if you could create your own MPEG2 (which you can't do if you don't have Compressor) it would still try to do that compression ... it is a consumer app designed for ease of use
The more you "step on" your video before it goes to to iDVD the worse it will be.
You are right; you need more control over your MPEG2 compression and you can't tinker with iDVD's compression engine like you could with Compressor
The symptons you describe are not unusual. I fin that anything over 90 minutes in iDVD can give you potential probs. The quality of the original video had to be really, really high ... and doing a double compression ain't gonna help that.
Is it feasible to split the project in half and make two DVDs? If the project is under an hour, you can use iDVD's Best Performance preference which tends to give you a better result.
Remember, iDVD doesn't really care about the "size" of your project, only its length, so tinkering around to reduce the file size won't help you.
It is unfortunate that Compressor is not a standalone program and that DVD Studio Pro is now only included as part of the Final Cut Suite. I suppose you could troll e-Bay to see if there are any older, independent versions of the program still kicking around

Has anyone tried Displayport to VGA adaptor for T410S?

I found Displayport to VGA cable for T410S on Lenovo site.
Lenovo DisplayPort to VGA Monitor Cable 57Y4393
I just wonder if DP can directly transfer to analog port?
Has anyone tried this?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Does the T410s not have a VGA port built right in? I know my T510 does and I'm almost certain the regular (non-"s") T410 has one.

Final Cut Pro X and Macbook with 9400M chip. Has anyone tried it?

I have a late 2009 Macbook with Nvidia GeForce 9400M graphics chip. I've got 4 gig RAM installed. Apple lists this chip as working with Final Cut Pro X. Has anyone tried it on a Macbook? Is the performance adequate or should I wait until I get a more powerful laptop?

Yep, I've got a Macbook with that chipset and it runs FCPX. It's not blindingly quick but it work.

Has anyone tried home sharing between mac and windows using parallels on the same machine?

I recently purchased a mac, and plan to set up parallels for windows and windows 7 so that I can use the Windows version of Over Drive Media Console from the library and download WMA files in windows (limitation with mac version for wma downloads). I would like to synch to iTunes on the Mac iOS, but will need iTunes available in Windows to transfer the books I download in WMA format from the library to my iphone. Has anyone tried this? Any success or suggestions would be appreciated!

In case anyone is interested, last night I installed Paralells, Windows, Overdrive Media Console on Windows, and then was able to download my book in WMA format. I was hoping parallels would allow me to crossover sync to iTunes on the Mac and have Overdrive recognize that I had iTunes open, but I had to choose Windows or Mac when connecting my phone through the USB and had to choose Windows in order for it to successfully transfer. I was able to get it to work it is now synced to iTunes in Windows. The nice thing was that it pulled in all my music/apps that I had set up in the Mac side, so I didn't have to go through that exercise again. I tested it on my old phone. Now I need to decide if I want to set up my current phone on Windows or Mac, it seems that once synched it only opens the device in windows, I haven't figured out how to force the choice between mac or window again. If I do windows, I can't take advantage of the cloud or iphoto/imovie directly. I'm totally new to mac, but I think I'll have to import my photos manually.

Has anyone tried this? AutoMailMerge Plug-in for Adobe Acrobat

Mail Merge in Acrobat 9 Professional?
Hi, All!
I have been told that I can perform a mail merge similar to MS Word from within Acrobat Pro 9. The main document (with merge type fields) needs to be an Acrobat .pdf. The data source can come from an external file. The key is that the merge is performed in Acrobat, not Word.
I have searched throughout Acrobat Pro 9 but have found no functionality that matches my needs. Can anyone help me with this?
I was informed the there is this outside company that has this "AutoMailMerge™ Plug-in for Adobe® Acrobat®"
http://www.evermap.com/automailmerge.asp
Has anyone tried this? Does it work? Will it do what I'm looking do?
Please help!
Thank you!

there are four episodes from MacBreak Studio avail for free, which explains MultiCam in FCPX

… in there, you'll find some not-so-known 'tricks' to fasten the process of synching, such as using Markers (not 'on beat' just 'approx').
I tried with my multicam soccer-recordings = no music (aside the referee's whistle ), and FCPX managed indeed to synch this stuff - impressive!
