From where to start designing logo

Hello everyone I know how to work with flash and photoshop but I am not sure about the good program to make the logo If I want to learn designing logo professionally from where should I start??????????

I could not have said it better my self, you always should put alot of thinking, sketching before ever actually going into the program of choice. ( I would always recommend Illustrator to get most or all of the logo done in, espitially if your ever going to use the logo for print! vector is key! )
- Excellent post!
Re: from where to start designing logo
Very good link!
I
feel that logo design starts long before any sort of graphics program
comes into play. It is done with pen and paper, or perhaps a word
processor, where the concept of the logo should arise from a lot of
discussion and heavy thought. Many questions should be asked, and then
answered, before the first designs are even committed to a sketch. A
logo can convey a lot about a company, and should do so. A lot of
thinking, mostly in words, is where I would urge anyone to start. Do
this homework well, and first, and the rest almost becomes mechanical.
When
the concepts are nailed down, it's time to begin the actual process.
The into PS as a rough, is a good one. One can try a lot of treatments,
to refine the concept. Then, for a usable logo, I feel that AI is the
next step, as has been stated. From there, one has complete control, and
depending on the use at that moment, PS can often help with getting
that AI file into a Raster image. InDesign can also be very useful to
the implementation of the logo.
Again, good article, and thanks,
Hunt

ONCE I CHAT WITH APPLE EXPERT TO RESOLVE MY PROBLEM BUT NOW I WAS UNABLE TO FIND FROM WHERE TO START CHAT. KINDLY TELL ME HOW I CAN CHAT WITH APPLE EXPERT

once i chat an apple expert to resolve my issue. but now i am unable to find the place on apple website from where i start chat.kindle tell me from where i can find that chat section..

This is one route. Apple - Support - Contact Apple Support But I am wondering if your previous chat was within the 90 days allowed in the guarantee period ... a different situation entirely to what you now want. Why not Google Kindle to see if your interests appear there.

What to check or can say from where to start?

Hi Gurus,
I've a situation, have been given a Dev db, a copy of their current Prod db, kind of a warehouse, not core and now my task is to check this db from all perspective and tell the application what is right or even wrong too.
Can any one please assist, advice/guide here, how to move about it, kind of struggling.
From where to start and what to look for, would like to start with parameters and the most important have to implement my suggested solution too on this Dev db and try to convince and coordinate with the Prod dba too, in order to implement there.
Looking forward for a favorable response, thanks in advance.

I came across information that Firefox has turned off the development for Windows 64-bit.
That is incorrect. There is a plan to stop producing 64-bit nightly builds, which are tests versions of Firefox.
You are using the release version of Firefox, which is 32-bit, and will continue working unaffected by the aforementioned change. 32-bit programs work without a hitch under 64-bit Windows. The default Start Menu shortcut for Internet Explorer points to the 32-bit version, and Firefox's main competitor Chrome is also available only in a 32-bit variety.
Even if you were using the 64-bit test version — and you aren't — the plan is to silently move testers to the 32-bit version, so as long as you have automatic updates enabled, you wouldn't have to do anything.
Technical details about 64-bit builds can be found below.

Hello every one. Please let me know what is the best mouse to use in a Photoshop? Thank you very much. Alex.

Hello every one. Please let me know what is the best mouse to use in a Photoshop? Thank you very much. Alex.

My ArtZ II is on a Win2K supplemental computer. I think that the main reason that I keep it around is the 12 x 12 ArtZ II.
Next workstation will probably force that comupter into a closet and my beloved ArtZ II will probably go with it...
Even on my laptop out on the patio, if I have to do almost anything in PS, or Painter, I'll go grab my Intuos 2 and hook it up, even though it's a 9 x 12 and a bit big for the patio table (works fine on my various desktop situations though). I cannot be without my tablets, though I am not a fan of the Wacom mice that I have tried (2 still in the box). Best mouse is my Logitec cordless (hated its keyboard and got rid of it in a second), which has nice weight, the right feel for my hand and is just great. Still, I only use it for the duties that the Wacom is not the best at. If I open up PS, or Painter, the mouse sits idle.
Good luck to the OP,
Hunt

Hello every one . Needhelp with Ipad2 !!

Hello every one . I have ipad 2 and now my power button is not completly working . What's happen is I can't turn-on or turn-off my screen . But if i hold power button ipad will ask me to turn off power . PLease help !!

For making images to use with the shirts, I would personally use PhotoShop (Whichever your Mac runs fastest, I recommend CS4 for a MacBook) or GIMP (Best free option). You can use any app or printer with transfer paper.

From where to start android programming ?

the question pretty much explains it. i have almost completed java programming. i have completed half of java essential classes from oracle java tutorials but what i mean is which ide should i download and from where should i learn it. for java programming i have been using netbeans and i think it also supports android programming. any suggestions would be appreciated.

I would start from here: https://developer.android.com/training/index.html
This is where I started 2-3 years ago, when Eclipse was the preferred (only?) IDE.
I have no idea if they still base the tutorials on Eclipse only, but if it is so, I would not mind learning another IDE for the sake of learning Android programming.
Advice: do not get too deep into Java GUI programming, because Android does not use AWT/Swing. Most of the rest of your Java background will be very useful.

Hello, every one. Over the last few days I haven't been able to download any app from the app store. can any one help me, please?

Over the last few days I haven't been able to download any app. can any one help me, please ? thank you.

Andrea...
You posted in the "Using Mac App Store" forum but your profile indicates you are using an iPad so that's what I'll try helping you with.
On the iPad tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings
Then restart the iPad. Hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button down until the red slider appears. Slide your finger across the slider to turn off iPhone. To turn iPhone back on, press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
If you still can't download apps, the problem may be your Wi-Fi connection > iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections

My Xserve does not wake up every Saturday from a cold start / cold boot up.

Hello, everyone,
This is my first time using this Apple Discussions Forum here and so hope any expert out there who can solve my problem, I'd deeply appreciated. Basically the problem is like this.
I configured Xserve to
wake up 8:50 am wake up every morning.
shut down system 1:00 am every morning.
There are two places to be configured here:
1. System Preferences' Energy Saver
2. Workgroup Manager>Computer List>Preferences> Schedules>Mac OS X Server.
The time schedules in those two places are ensured to be at the same setting.
(does anyone know which is the main one?)
Furthermore,
I have a clock timer set to 2:00 am to shut down the main power supply to the Xserve. And so,
Power Supply timer provides power to Xserve:
8:40 am every morning (before scheduled Xserve waking up time, 8:50 am)
Power supply cut down the power to Xserve:
2:00 am every morning (after scheduled Xserve shutting down time, 1:00 am)
Why am I doing this? Because I think it is good for Xserve's power supply fan. If I let Xserve's power supply run 24/7 for years, the motor is wearing down soon. It also saves some energy for me.
Normally the power supply would first provides the power to Xserve before Xserve would boot up as scheduled.
Now, this setting works pretty well for me for months until recently.
My Xserve will not boot up every Saturday morning as scheduled. I cannot figure out why it does this weird behavior.
I tried to search forums and google many many places, and find no solution.
Here are a list of things I have tried:
I changed 2 new PRAM battery twice in one month.
I have tried to reset SMC.
I have tried to reset PRAM.
I tried to reset PRAM before SMC reset. I also tried to reset SMC before PRAM reset.
Worse yet, on Saturday morning, Xserve is like in a deep coma, I tried to remotely boot it up by LOM, it does not even respond to my LOM waking up call. It is like a naughty kid refusing to wake up in the Saturday morning. The only way to wake it up is that I I have to take a long walk and physically go to my Xserve and hold the power button for 5 seconds and press it again and so it wakes up. Note that if I just press the power button once, it does not boot up neither. Why?
Then the next day, it is normal again for another 6 days until next Saturday. I could not figure out why it does this. Why just Saturday? Why not Sunday or any other day between Monday to Friday?
Funny and strange behavior.
The problem is periodic and so I believe it has something to do with the software and/or the PRAM caching the alarm time, which may influence the SMC setting.
Note: the Apple website says SMC controls the waking time while Apple manual also says PRAM is responsible for alarm clock.
I would normally
shut down system
unplug the cable
hold the power button for 5 seconds and let it go
plug back the power cable.
Xserve should either boot up by itself or stay cold for me to boot up.
note: the manual just say unplug the cable for 5 sec but did not say hold the power button for 5 second, and I think that is wrong; you have indeed have to hold the power button for 5 seconds as the Apple website said. Otherwise when I cut down power supply every day, my SMC is reset by itself every day.
I have a voltage regulator before my Xserve's power supply and so the voltage is very stable.
Any Xserve experts out there has the same problem like I do??

Hi, MrHoffman , I couldn't agree more with your view point. Xserve not only reacts poorly to sudden power shortage, its HDDs may also get hurt during sudden power removal. Therefore, I was extremely careful when resetting SMC. Bad SMC procedure can hurt HDD.
MrHoffman , my problem is not totally solved and you knew I will come back, right? I do accidentally find your blog. Is the site yours?

Your blog and threads from here has inspired me to investigate in the direction on LOM issue. Thank you.

I've come to narrow down the problem and suspect the root cause is LOM bug. Basically this is what happens in the last 4 days.
After nearly 3 weeks of monitoring my Xserve, it was running perfectly normal until 4 days ago. Suddenly, my Xserve fails to wake up for 4 days in a row. I almost made it---a perfect run for 1 month without ever having to reset SMC once! This time, the failed waking-up event took place during normal weekdays. So it is still a mystery to me that why my Xserve previously fails to wake up only on Saturday (perhaps, hackers prefer Saturday because that's when they are free?---just kidding). However, at least I now know the problem can take place at anytime.
Maybe I should first list my Xserve's specification.
Xserve Late 2006 Model
2.0 GHz Dual-Core Intel Xeon
8G RAM
Mac OS X Leopard Server 10.5.8 (Build 9L34)
Boot ROM: XS11.0080.B01
LOM version: 1.2.8
I am only using en0 for both LAN and LOM.
So since I was not able to wake up my Xserve remotely by LOM, it is intuitive to check Server Monitor on Xserve side.
On my Xserve side, I had
Name: Nothing (it was localhost)
IP Address: 127.0.0.1
Status Summary: Software is not installed properly on server.
At this point, I was wondering where did my Status Summary go? So as an incentive move, I delete the 127.0.0.1 from Server Monitor list and go to >Server Monitor>Server>Configure Local Machine, trying to re-add the localhost server back to Server Monitor list. Then it is when all of the troubles occur.
The Server Monitor simply hangs there. When check Finder>Force Quit Applications, I see Server Monitor (not responding).
So I was questioning myself that if this failed waking-up event is a software issue or a hardware sensor issue. Before answering to this question, as a good habit, let me post my log file.

I am new in portal development . From where to start

Hello !
I am new in portal development .
i have installed 8i db on Linux and 9iAS on win2k . Now i want
to start developent through oracle portal .
For that purpose i have downloaded PDK .
Now what to do .
I am still unable to find the platform where i have to start
development .
Can somebody tell me which steps are required to start
development.
i am more interested doing development in pl/sql.
Where i have to type the code .
Where i have to execute it.
Where and how to run it.
Can somebody tell me with small example .
Regards

Seemab,
I feel your pain. After having been at this for a couple of
months, here's what I have to offer you.
0) Watch every single one of the portal tutorials on this
website. They are little movies and slide shows with tutorials
and actual application walkthroughs that were EXTREMELY HELPFUL
to me and my team in the absence of formalized training. They
were really great.
1) Take a few days and read every single white paper that you
can about Oracle 9iAS Portal and its architecture.
2) Use the portal interface to create groups and users.
3) Experiment with as many aspects of the portal interface that
you can. This will help you see the strengths and limitations
of portal, and where you may need to focus your development
effort.
4) Create database objects like tables by using the portal
interface. Create an LOV off of one of the tables, and use it
in a form. This is all just general stuff that helped
familiarize me with portal.
5) Publish different kinds of documents to the portal.
6) Create a PL/SQL item in a portal. Educate yourself on the
HTP and HTF procedures and functions to print things to the
screen dynamically.
7) Most important of all, download as many pieces of sample
code as you can and install it to portal. On this website you
will find numerous instances of sample portlets and
applications. You will learn what it takes to install Java-
based providers, servlets, and others.
8) Using a good PL/SQL tool like SQL*Navigator or TOAD, browse
your way through the PORTAL30 data dictionary, going through all
of the tables and especially the packages. This will help you
learn where you need to write code to interact with the
underlying objects in Portal.
I'm sorry I can't be more specific than that, but you can really
be on your way to becoming a well-rounded portal developer by
experimenting with these things that I have listed.
Good luck!
Sincerely,
Adrian Klingel
