Hello, Is there an easy way of understanding what menu language means before you press the button, for instance, DUPLICATE, does it mean delete duplicates or form them? Cyfrommayo

Is there an easy way of understanding what to expect when I press something like DUPLICATE?
Cyfrommayo

Thanks Guys,
Yes, SAVE AS makes sense now you have illustrated it. Would an opportunity to rename the copy file have been a good idea? Additionally, a place to save the copy, something like the old PC way?
I got to this question, because of another incident which ended up with many duplicates, the help files did not know what the question DELETE DUPLICATE was? I have therefore ended up deleting individual duplicate files as a 'work around'. The learning curve hey.
Regards,
Cyfrommayo

I've tried safe mode but I dont understand what is happening. I tried pressing the power button on and off for several times and nothing happens, I'm always stuck on an apple logo and a spinning wheel. I dont know how to get to the Partition and the DiskUtility. The Apple Logo and the Progress Indicator will continue to spin and I have literally no idea what to do. i am in desperate need of help. help me pls

Turn it off.
Start it up again and (at the sound of the chime) press and hold the command and the R keys, hold them down until Recovery loads. When it does you will select Disk Utility and you should be on the First Aid tab when it opens, if you are not please select it. Then select the partition (in the side bar, 2nd entry on the list, see picture).
Yours is probably called Macintosh HD.
Once you have selected it go to the lower righthand corner of the First Aid dialog and press Repair Disk.
This will take 10 minutes approximately. Post back when it is finished and tell me what it says.

On my old macbook (osx 10.6.8), is there an easy way to clone my new SSD HD before installation? I have the cable connector for the new SSD to the USB port

My Macbook, 2007 vintage with osx 10.6.8 and an 80GB original HD is going to get a new brain....a 240 GB HD. I have the USB cable to connect the new HD to the laptop before swap of the drives. Is there an easy way to transfer the appropriate info from the old HD to the new SSD before the hardware swap? Where is the procedure?.....I have a backup plan to use my external backup drive to do this but that would seem rather cumbersome.....Recommendations???

Both of these applications can be used to create a clone.

How to adjust Numbers so I can scroll all the way to EE or FG etc without having to press that button for every column

I need to make a sheet with about 150 columns, which is about up to ET but the only way i see to get there is by continually pressing the top right button to add one column at a time. This is very time consuming, how do I set up Numbers to show me 150 column, i.e. up to ET??
thanks in advance

This NI-DAQ function call directly accesses the nidaq32.dll. While the nidaq32.dll is multithread safe, it is not a multithreaded DLL. This is also described in the KnowledgeBase entry 1V9DSHDM: "Can NI-DAQ Handle Different Operations at the Same Time? Is It a Multi-threaded DLL?"
You are correct that the SCXI_Set_Gain function is not asynchronous. Thus, you do have to wait till that function returns before calling the next one. LabVIEW has found a way around this. So, you can actually use the LabVIEW functions to set the gain on these modules without having to wait as you do with SCXI_Set_Gain.

Is there an easier way to see all my texts from one friend? The harder way is just clicking "see more messages" over and over again on the iPhone.

Hi Everyone!
I would like to be able to see (and possibly print out) all the texts that I have exchanged with one of my contacts. Right now, I only know how to see the older texts by clicking "see more messages" every time I want to go back further in our history.
Thanks for reading my issue!

Is there a quick way in Outlook 2007 (using Acrobat Pro X) to change the setting for including/excluding attachments when exporting email ?

I have to export Outlook 2007 email a hundred times a day. Most of the time I do not want the attachments included with the email because I have to save them off to various directories and do not want or need to double up the storage space. However, every couple days, there is an email that I have to save with the attachments. So I have to go into the Adobe settings, change to include attachments. Save the email. Go back into settings, change it back to not include the attachments.
Is there a way - shortcut key, ctrl-alt combinataion, something, that will allow me to save that one email every couple days with attachments without having to go into the settings?
I am using Outlook 2007 with Adobe Acrobat Pro X on a Windows 7 PC.
Thanks,

Hi Slowtorque,
There isn't a shortcut but you can use the options in conversion settings to toggle whether to include attachments or not:

Is there an easy way to switch mini dvi between monitor and tv?

I would like to be able to connect my mini's dvi output to a either a monitor or my tv. I am not trying to get a display on both simultaneously. With a DVI to DVI cable between mini and monitor and a dvi to hdmi cable between mini and tv I think that I can swap dvi connections at the mini, but that looks like a pain. Is there an easier way to do this?
I am about to order the dvi to hdmi cable. Is the mac mini's dvi port hot plugable or do I need to put the mini to sleep or shut down? Thanks,
Owen

Welcome to Apple Discussions!
Without some extra hardware, you can't. The mini, like all Macs, looks for data from the display to determine what settings it makes available to the user, so with two displays connected and feeding their available configurations, the mini will get very confused! Even if the two displays have one or more common settings that will actually work, each time the mini boots or wakes and detects the display, one or other (or both) are likely to go blank.
There are adaptors you might consider, such as those from Gefen, but they are not inexpensive. Have a look at http://www.gefen.com/kvm/dproductlisting.jsp?listingCategory=Switchers&productTy pe=dvi for a list of available switching options, though beware that for the most part, the need being met is for TWO sources and ONE display, not your ONE source and TWO displays.

HTML Article Management: Is there an easier way to perform batch updates?

I have a folio with many html articles.
After a batch of edits I need to update the folio via FolioBuilding panel.
I've tried 2 ways both however both are time consuming;
1) via Updates: updating is time consuming because i have to select each artcle, go to menu select update, wait till complete, repeat for each article.
2) via reimport: select each article, go to menu & select delete, wait till complete, repeat for each article then re-import all articles
Is there an easier way to accomplish batch updates?
Thanks,
John

Just use "import" & the sw insts' will load and assign accordingly, automatically.
But oddly, there are times when importing a SMF w/imbedded prgm changes, that LP8 loads a completely wrong instrument to a specific track(s).
One reason that I've kept only one of my trustworthy external midi modules (Roland XV5080), specifically for just importing SMFs'. When the XV is in GM mode, any standard midi files I import to LP8... always load pgm changes correctly 100% of the time.

Is there an easy way to batch rename existing images in a folder?

Hi,
I discovered that I had accidentally imported several folders with the wrong filename prefix. I use the first three letters so it corresponds to the camera I shot it with, the program I exported it from, or the person who sent it to me. The last source, essentially.
Is there an easy way I am not seeing in LR to rename all the images in a shoot without having to reimport them?
Thanks,
Chris

Hightlight all of the images in the folder, press F2, and set up a renaming preset to your taste, and then apply it. Note that the preset mechanism is the same one used at import.

Is there and easy way for Position control using analog input?

Hi Everyone,
I would like to set one of the axis with stepper motor using analog feedback to keep the set position which is coming from the analog input.
In other words I would like the stepper to move when the analog input changes. I need it as a "background service" so the rest of the motion could be easily controlled from the NI-Motion Assistant.
Is there any easy way to do this? Even complicated is ok but the control should be done by the NI Motion card not the PC processor.
Thanks,
Andras

Is there an easy way to create 2 page imposed PDFs with a background?

I have figured out a way to create a suitable imposed single page PDF using the 'import as layer' action, the action only understands a single paged background PDF.
In other words, I have a PDF that has the suitable marks on it with the pages marked 'Page 1' & 'Page 2'. This is the background PDF.
I open this PDF in Acrobat and run the action that places another PDF (the 'Source' PDF) on multiple layers with different offsets.
The original (template) PDF is 2 pages & the Source PDF for imposition is 2 pages, and even though the 'import as layer' understands that the source PDF being imposed is 2 pages, it does not seem to allow the original (template) PDF to be seen as 2 pages.
There is a 'Target page number' option in the Preview area, but that is grayed out at 1.
So...other than commercial applications, is there an easy way to build a 2 page PDF imposition file??
Maybe a script?

Sabian,
Yes, the Quite software would be perfect, especially the 'Hot'. Tested & works great for us, but the price tag for the 'Hot' is rather steep for our relatively simple process......background template with a 'step & repeat' of the 'live' document.
As I mentioned in the original post, to do this with a single page PDF is simple enough using an action that places the 'live' doc multiple times, but the vast majority of our publications are 2 pages.
Currently runing the action twice for each job. I would save a bit of time if this could be automated to do both sides with one action, or one script.

Is there an easy way to convert from a String with a comma, ie. 1,000.00 to a float or a double?

Like DrClap said: DecimalFormat. However, make sure you understand the Locale things, as explained at http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.3/docs/api/java/text/DecimalFormat.html (which refers to NumberFormat as well) and use them explicitly. Like
public class FormatTest
public static void main(String args[])
    try
      // see NumberFormat.getInstance()
      DecimalFormat fmt = new DecimalFormat();
      Number num = fmt.parse("1,000.01");
      System.out.println(num.doubleValue());
    catch(ParseException pe)
      System.out.println(pe);
}most likely seems OK on your system, but may print "1.0" (or even fail) on some non-English platforms!

I often receive photos as attachments to emails.s there Ian easy way to save them directly to Photoshop Elements? Or do I have to save and then import?

Is there an easy way to save them directly to Photoshop Elements? Or do I have to save and then import?

Well... I appreciate both of your responses. However... I believe that lvlibs cause more frustration then anything else. My team has come across issues with lvlibs and conflicting paths (when using CM tools) and have resorted to using LLBs because they offer a clean set of file dependencies. I understand that lvlibs are probably more robust, but they are not an option right now. Therefore... the question I originally asked still remains. Is there a quick and easy way to add a bunch of VIs to an LLB without having to save each one of them separately to the LLB?

Guest map (is there an easier way) ?

So I have seen a few sites that have a guest map. I did some searching and found some instructions oh how to do it.
What I read says that I will have to upload a file each time I publish... As well as some html editing....???
MWong on the iWeb forums is where I got the instructions.
http://www.rowan-cottage.co.uk/Site/Articles.html
Is there an easy way?
If so where can I go to find step by step
Thanks.....

Hello again Nathan!
Michael's instructions are as step-by-step as it gets. Basically, all of this "special" stuff is the same. iWeb can't do it directly, so we have to go into the html files that iWeb outputs and make changes to it. The deal here is that everytime you subsequently change that file in iWeb, iWeb will save a new copy of that file without your previously added "special" modifications. So it is necessary to repeat the process again.
As far as a GuestMap page goes, it really isn't a page that changes often as far as the layout in iWeb goes, so you won't be needing to redo that one too much. But as long as you learn the basic steps, it really doesn't take but a few seconds to edit the files for your purposes...and you can then apply the same technique to add other things to your pages.
Let's give it a go here...step one...sign up for a Guestmap account...check?
How far are you in Michael's instructions??? We'll talk you through it. If you see me online (check my status on my homepage), feel free to chat with me, too.
