Hello-Not Sure About the MBP Leopard Settings for the Display

I want to get a new MBP for my next step. I was also wanting th one-on-one but my bud has not had much expereince (good) with this. I think he and I need the persnal training? Is that the same as one-on-one?
<edited by host> I was wondering about the new display and how good it looks but is it a look that that is conducive to using other programs. It appears to be soo glossy and if you are not looking head on you miss a lot. Is this new display popular? Can it be changed so other programs can take front and center when you need them t and not the Leopard display all the time.
any feedback, helpful <edited by host>. I hope tis makes some sense.

If I were in your position I'd wait until the last possible moment. Vastly faster MBPs are coming (the much discussed Merom chip), possibly by the start of the school season, but absolutely by Oct/Nov. I would not buy now. The current MBP is just the beginning, and in two years it will really be showing it's age.
17" seems right for you considering your major, but keep in mind the 17" can be a PITA to schelp around.
If you will be going to a large school they might offer better deals than the online Apple Edu store, so be sure to check before buying.
The issues you see posted here are not typical. There are a large number of people that do have problems, but there is an even larger universe of owners that have no problems.

  • The email message cannot be sent. Make sure the outgoing email settings for the server are configured properly

    i have an issue when loading a workflow. it gives me a following error "The email message cannot be sent. Make sure the outgoing email settings for the server are configured properly". it doesnt send me any alerts and worlflow fails at the end
    with the above error message.

    Hi,
    I agree with Bistesh. But after Outgoing e-mail settings are configured properly, if the issue still exists,
    It may result from your Anti-Virus. Please refer to the following steps:
    Open MCAfee Console and go to Access Protection window.
    Click Anti-Virus Standard Protection and edit “prevent mass mailing 
    worms from sending emails” rule.
    Now we need to know which processes are being blocked therefore we need to check the MCAfee Log located at
    C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\McAfee\DesktopProtection\AccessProtectionLog.txt
    you may find entries of DtExec , DtExecUI and DatabaseMail90, now these processes need to be entered in the exclusion list of selected rule .
    Reset the IIS And SharePoint Timer service to check if this works for you.

  • Change the default margin settings for the MS word!

    Hi All,
    BI Publisher version:latest 10.1.3.4
    DB:10.2.0.4
    Oracle Apps:12.0.6
    OS:AIX
    We are facing an issue of which description is as below:
    RTF output is being uploaded through "XML Publisher" Responsibility.
    3.1.9 Header and Footer Margin from Edge Not Preserved in RTF Output
    This issue applies to Versions 10.1.3.3, 10.1.3.3.1, 10.1.3.3.2, 10.1.3.3.3, 10.1.3.4, and 10.1.3.4.1.
    Microsoft Word provides a Page Setup option for specifying the margin for the headers and footers from the edge of the page. This option is available by choosing the File menu, then Page Setup, then the Margins tab, and the From edge box. This margin setting is not retained when the output format is RTF. The output is created with the default margin settings instead. The margin settings do work correctly for other output formats such as HTML, PDF, and Excel.
    So, the "default setting" mentioned here is around 1/2 inch for MS Word which is getting added in the output, even if the margin in template is zero.
    Expected output:
    So what we need to do is -
    1. Check the MS word installation on the application server
    2. Change this default margin setting as top and bottom 0 on the server in the MS word page setup. (I can give you steps to do this in word if required)
    We have tried setting this margin to 0 on client side and generating the output and it makes no difference, so it must be coming from the server.
    We need to know how could we modify the settings and need to know te source and Check the MS word installation on the application server?
    Could anyone please share such an issue faced before!
    Thanks for your time!
    Regards,

    Hi All,
    Moreover,
    Our understanding about the RTF output is this -
    When we generate an RTF report output from Oracle EBS, the word document that is generated is with the settings of MS word that is installed on application server.
    This understanding could be wrong as we have never faced such situation before! We have come to this conclusion because the default settings that we do on client machine do not work.
    And as per the documentation of BI publisher the RTF should always be generated with the default settings of MS word.
    So what you could help us with is this -
    1. See if the MS word application is installed on application server ( if you think this is not application server, but any other server then please check there!)
    2. Change the default margin settings for the MS word.

  • I have lost the correct proxy settings for the ethernet connection using Safari.  How do I get back to the original ethernet proxy settings?

    I changed the ethernet proxy settings for Safari on my Mac Pro, when I was in a particular place that required extra security.  Now I cannot get the ethernet connection to work when back home.  The wireless connection works fine.  What are the original ethernet proxy settings.  How do I make the changes?
    Thanks

    From your Safari menu bar click Safari / Preferences then select the Advanced tab. Click Change Settings next to Proxies. Select Automatically from the Configure pop up menu.
    You may also have to select the Proxies tab. If any of the boxes are selected, deselect then click OK.

  • Not sure about upgrading from Leopard to Snow Leopard, Sugguest??

    I am thinking about upgrade from 10.5 to Snow leopard, but afraid anything would go wrong, which I can't afford that. Beside my leopard runs perfectly fine now. The only reason I am thinking about Snow leopard is I wants to install Win7 through BootCamp to open up some application only available in Windows.
    There are so many problems from what I read so far for upgrading. I am just wondering if the benefits is more than the troubles?
    Here is what I am scared of:
    1. lose the programs/applications I have on leopard.
    2. lose the files, program setting I have.
    3. SL create crazy problem that I cannot solve.
    Any suggestions? Thanks!!

    Here is what I am scared of:
    1. lose the programs/applications I have on leopard.
    Shouldn't happen, but if anything goes wrong you could lose everything. You need to be prepared with installers and serial numbers with all your applications. This is not specific to this situation, you need that at all times. Your hard drive could decide to die tomorrow, and then where would you be?
    2. lose the files, program setting I have.
    See my answer to #1. You must have backups for any data files you aren't willing to lose. If you don't have backups, that should now be your new highest priority in life if you value your data. See my [Mac Backup Guide|http://www.reedcorner.net/thomas/guides/backups>.
    3. SL create crazy problem that I cannot solve.
    Make sure your computer meets [Snow Leopard system requirements|http://www.apple.com/macosx/specs.html], and make sure your software is compatible:
    http://snowleopard.wikidot.com/
    You should also check any hardware, like printers, scanners, etc, to be sure that there are SL-compatible drivers. Also, it should go without saying that you should [repair the hard drive with Disk Utility|http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1417] before any system install or update, though many people don't actually know that, so it must be said. If your system isn't problem-free, don't consider any system updates or upgrades until the problems are solved.

  • How do I change the Version Code in the Flash Android settings for the Android app Market?

    I recently tried to update my app in the Android app market and when I uploaded it I got the following message:
    "The new apk's versionCode (1000000) already exists."
    In the Flash Adnroid settings I changed the version label but that did not help.
    So I have two questions:
    How do I change the Version code in the Flash Android settings? I changed the version number and version label but that did not work.
    What is the difference between the version number and version label?

    I tried that but it did not work. Apparently there is a difference between the version code and version number (which is set in the Android settings). From my research the version label is optional, so there are no problems there.
    This is the what the XML file says:
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no" ?>
    <application xmlns="http://ns.adobe.com/air/application/2.6">
      <id>com.company.nameofapp</id>
    //Below is the correct version number, but has no relation to the version code.
      <versionNumber>1.1.0</versionNumber>
      <versionLabel>NewLayout</versionLabel>
      <filename>Name of app</filename>
      <description/>
    I did find this piece of information for Androin version codes. (http://developer.android.com/guide/publishing/versioning.html)  But I don't know how to place it into the xml file without conflicting with other code.
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
    <manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
          package="com.example.package.name"
          android:versionCode="2"
          android:versionName="1.1">
        <application android:icon="@drawable/icon" android:label="@string/app_name">
        </application>
    </manifest>
    Any other thoughts are much appreciated.

  • How are the standard ACL settings for the installationfolder C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox ?

    reasoning: On my Win7 Prof. machine I have an entry for "authentificated users" who can write to that folder and I guess this is a security risk/no standard behaviour?
    I stumbled upon this because of the newest update for Firefox.
    My machine is able to update Firefox, when a user without administrative privilegs is logged in. The UAC is on the highest adjustment.
    I guess this perhaps occures, because I transfered the user profile from a windows xp machine using the Microsoft User Migration Tool?
    Please provide feedback for the standard user rights, which are granted for a clean Firefox installation so I can adjust my settings.
    Kind Regards

    I am assuming you've not been able to bring up Firefox at all after installing.
    In my start-up command in the properties of the icon
    I have the pathname enclosed in double quotes because of the spaces:
    "C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox 4.0\firefox.exe" -p Firefox-Four
    Is your download first install of Firefox or was it to update to Firefox 5.
    Have you used Firefox before on your machine.
    What happens if you just type firefox.exe into the '''Run...''' box from the Windows Start button (WinKey).

    your home folder should have the permissions set as you state them.

    I currently have my MacPro plus my MacBook Pro running from my Airport Express and they work perfectly... but my new iPhone 4 won't see the network... does anyone know why this could be and is it something to do with security or other setting I have on my Airport Express.... I have been onto iPhone 4 support and they are all about restore and resets... it's gotta be something small I'm doing wrong.

    Hi Bob and Sijnon...
    Cheers for your replies and comments... I don't really know hat a closed network is... I do have it password protected and I'm using the WPA2 Personal security protocol... the one thing I can say is that it is broadcasting in the 5GHz band as I had it set to the 2.4GHz and I couldn't pick up the signal in my kitchen so I switched recently to the 5GHz band and my MacPro now works fine all over the house. I was told by a colleague that the iPhone 4 supported the 5GHz band..?
    Is this the problem... is this reason why it won't join the network..?

  • What are the best export settings for a HD video in Premier Pro CS4?

    Hi!
       I've been having so much trouble with this issue and it's something that continually frustrates my boss. I have a HD video the settings for it are
    FPS 23.98
    1920 x 1080, then a few lines down it says 1408 x 792
    16 bit,
    2 channels
    48000 Hz
       What should the settings be when I make a new sequence?
                 When I look at it in the window in Premiere Pro I have to contantly 'shrink' the image to fit the window, is that something I should be doing or does it indicate the sequence settings are incorrect?
    But more importantly what should the export settings be? I exported a 4 minute long video and the size was 1 GB, I know that's too big.
    I need to export it without loosing any quality and export another one that meets the Youtube and Vimeo limits on size.
    Vimeo is 500 MB per week, sometimes I upload 4 videos per week. I think Youtube you can only upload 500 MB at a time.
    I need to get smaller sizes with loosing the least amount of quality possible AND the best export settings for quality, so I guess I have 3 separate questions-
    What are the best sequence settings for HD video?
    What are the best export settings for HD without loosing any quality?
    What are the best export settings for the size to come out around 500 MB with loosing the least amount of quality possible?
    Thank You!

    On the above thread I used the 5th anwer, and it's going to take about 7 hours to export a 4 minute video :/

    It Stands for "Coder Decoder."
    Your format is like a container for your video file. Certain containers can hold certain codecs and not others. Other containers can hold other codecs. Sometimes different containers can hold the same codecs.
    This might be a bad analogy but I'll give it a try.
    A coffe cup (container) can hold pretty much any liquid you drink, where a red solo cup (container) won't hold scolding water. So, the coffe cup would be your container of choice most likely because it has the most options for liquids (codecs). But, you might want a red solo cup for just a single crappy beer at a party (a moderate quality streaming video on the web). In that case, you don't need all the optoins of another container.
    In Premiere Pro CC H.264 is a Container and the Codec in one option. This has been streamlined for web distrobution of video to be played in browsers without things like Flash or special players.
    Were as if you choose the QuickTime Container there are over 40 codec optoins (at least on my machine with additinal ones installed) but you may run into an issue where your browser doesn't support QuickTime playback.
    I would say that your container is for compatability with players and your codec is taken into consideration when looking at the quality of the compression.
    Yesteraday I wrote a blog entery on Exporting from Premiere Pro and found that the MPEG-4 codec inside of the QuickTime container gave me much richer colors than the H.264 container/codec option.
    I posted the link before but here it is:

  • I just bought a used iPad 2, how do I change the previous owners info for the app store? Whenever I try to buy an app it asks for the previous owners password for the iTunes account. I have my own account Nd would like to use it.

    Need help Changing the previous owners settings for the app store. I can't buy any apps. Because it asks for previous owners information.

    I had this same problem, and it was erased.
    For some really odd reason iPads sometimes retain the last user iTunes account on first visit to the iTunes store.
    I am thinking it is actually the iTunes store recognising the iPad, and so 'helping' by showing the last log in settings.
    So I would also recommend Erase All Content and Settings to start.
    If that was done then what you need to do is log in, or create your own itunes account.
    This is in Settings, Store.
    create your own iTunes account (or log in with an old one).
    Purchase something.
    Then (as long as you don't have any app from the last owner on) it should never ask for the old account again.

  • Airport Exterme 802.11n Wi-Fi  MC340LL/A not sure about some settings  ?

    Yesterday I bought a Airport Extreme ( Base Station ) 802.11n Wi-Fi MC340LL/A ( Model No. A1354 )
    I have managed to figure out most of the setting in the Airport Utility ( Setup Guide that came with the Airport Extreme is No help with details about any settings except the Very Basic ones ) and My wireless network is setup and working but May need tweaking for even better performance.
    But there are some settings/choices I'm not familiar with and Not quite sure what options I need and don't need.
    My Network - No Network Disk Connected, Guest Network or Files being Shared
    ( at least not for now )
    Connected through wireless access - ( WPA2 Personal Security )
    MacBook 2.26GHz Intel Core 2 Duo (13-inch, Late 2009) –
    Model A1342 Polycarbonate Unibody ( MC207LL/A )
    OS X Snow Leopard 10.6.4
    Roku digital streaming video player (also known as the Netflix Player by Roku)
    HP Photosmart Plus B209a-m Wireless Printer
    Connected Via Ethernet -
    Dell OptiPlex Desktop PC
    Windows XP Professional SP3
    First Setting I'm not sure of - Internet Connection - Connection Sharing
    For now I have it set to Share Public IP address - Is this correct for my Network Setup with The Airport Extreme being the only router being used ?
    Other two choices are Distribute A Range of IP Addresses and ( Off ) Bridge Mode
    [IMG]http://i134.photobucket.com/albums/q100/Blueimac/Screenshot2010-07-30at25653PM.j pg[/IMG]
    Next Setting - Wireless - Wireless Network Options ( Very Confusing )
    Settings I have Enabled
    [IMG]http://i134.photobucket.com/albums/q100/Blueimac/Screenshot2010-07-30at35722PM.j pg[/IMG]
    I've read online about Multicast Rate, Use Wide Channels and Use Interference Robustness but still not sure how I should use these setting and at what level.

    +For now I have it set to Share Public IP address - Is this correct for my Network Setup with The Airport Extreme being the only router being used ?+
    This would be the correct setting if the AirPort Extreme is connected to a simple modem (one ethernet port).
    *Settings I have Enabled*
    5 GHz name indicates that you have elected to use the option to assign a separate name to the 5 GHz network. This will allow you to "tell" compatible computers to connect to that network, rather than the slower 2.4 GHz network
    Use Wide Channels is recommended for 5 GHz operation.
    Interference Robustness often does more harm than good and should not be used unless you know you are in a area with a lot of wireless networks and you feel that your network is experiencing interference issues from a nearby network.

  • The e-mail message could not be sent. Make sure the outgoing e-mail settings for the server are configured correctly

    I have a 2 server SharePoint farm.
    All outgoing emails were working fine.
    I just restarted both servers and now after that none of the emails are being sent. I am using OOB publishing workflow and it shows message:
    The e-mail message could not be sent. Make sure the outgoing e-mail settings for the server are configured correctly.
    Even if I setup Alert on some list, it doesn't send email.
    I have checked that outgoing email setting in CA is defined and like I said it was working fine without problems but after restart it is showing error.
    What could be the cause of this and how to fix it?
    EDIT
    I removed outgoing mail server in CA, added again and restart IIS but still emails from OOB workflow is not being sent. But email from Alerts are being sent. Don't know what to do now.

    This is really weird, It works when an alert is set but workflows doesn't send emails... Can you create a simple 1 Step workflow in SPD to send an email when a specific field is set. See if this sends an email..
