Help, Calendar set up. Novice.

Hello,
I normally wouldn't come to forums asking for help but I am close to chucking my computer out of the window.
I am pretty much a novice at Microsoft Project. I have just been on a training course, but experience is something I do not have.
I need help setting up the project timings in options and working days etc and then I need help setting up a project calendar or two.
Basically our week runs from Sunday to Saturday.
A normal week is - Monday to Friday working time is 7:30 to 17:00 with :30 min break at 12:00 to 12:30. (9 hours work and a 30 minute break)
however a lot of task that we do also include weekend work or just weekend work:
Saturday is 22:00 - 00:00 and Sunday is 00:00 - 10:00 with a :30 minute break at 04:00 to 04:30 (11 hours work and a 30 minute break)
I have experimented several times to get this to work and when I assign resources it just either, misses days or has them working irregular working patterns and it is frustrating.
I am basically asking if somebody could put me a template together with this is place and then I can assign the calendars to the various task when needed. I would be very thankful.
Thankyou

Hi Kurtis,
Nothing wrong with asking for help. There are several areas you need to modify to get this to work.
1. Calendars
2. Schedule Options
3. Make sure the start time of the project is 07:30 in project information
3. I would display times as part of the date format.
4. Weekends will always be a problem as you have additional hours. I would enter durations in hours and the same for work (because a weekend workday has different hours to a weekday workday).
Some images posted here... (please ignore the 145 hours work per week!)
If you post your email address, I'll send you a templated file.

How to change calendar setting for one event in a repeating series?

Is there any way to change the calendar setting (color) for a single event in a repeating series without changing the color of all events in that series? It seems one event in a repeating series is linked to all other events in that series even if you change the time and/or date first.
The only workaround I've found is to create a new event Identical to the event in question except with the different calendar, then delete the original event. This would be a lot easier if the OS would ask the user if s/he wants to apply the calendar change to all future events or just this one. Or if there was a way to more easily duplicate a single event, that would also save me a lot of time.
Thanks for any responses.

The assignment of colors to calendars on your iPad is pretty simplistic. You can set a color for each calendar and all events (repeating or single instance) placed in a calendar use the calendar's color; however, you cannot set a color for one instance of a calendar event. The workaround you came up with is similar to the method I use. I have a calendar labeled "Priority Events" (Red) that I use for important instances of standing meetings. Oftentimes I leave the event in question in the calendar and simply place a priority event in the same time slot; it clutters up the calendar a bit but helps me visually.

Help needed setting specific date in GregorianCalendar object?

Hi All!
I have set SimpleTimeZone object in GregorianCalendar object. How can I set a new date to the GregorianCalendar object, such that i can find DAY_OF_YEAR specific to this date's day?
URGENT replies will be appreciated!

Thanks for ur reply!
but the problem is that i have to create a method:
public int getDayOfYear(int day, int month, int year)
return day_of_the year;
This method should accept user specified day, month and year and passes to GregorianCalendar/Calendar object. I need want to get DAY_OF_YEAR value from Calendar.DAY_OF_YEAR which it will provide, but the change is not affecting!
ACTUAL CODE
===========
public static double getDayofYear(int hr, int min, int sec)
String[] ids = TimeZone.getAvailableIDs(5 * 60 * 60 * 1000);
SimpleTimeZone pdt = new SimpleTimeZone(5 * 60 * 60 * 1000, ids[0]);
for (int i=0; i<ids.length; i++)
System.out.println (ids);
//setting DLS start and end rule
pdt.setStartRule(Calendar.MAY, 1, Calendar.SUNDAY, 00 * 60 * 60 * 1000);
pdt.setEndRule(Calendar.OCTOBER, -1, Calendar.SUNDAY, 00 * 60 * 60 * 1000);
Calendar calendar = new GregorianCalendar(pdt);
//Date trialTime = new Date();//SET DATE
//calendar.setTime(trialTime);
calendar.set(Calendar.HOUR,hr);
calendar.set(Calendar.MINUTE,min);
calendar.set(Calendar.SECOND,sec);
return ((double) calendar.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_YEAR));
This method is giving true output for today [2nd Dec. 2002 -> 336], but only when it accepts current time, not date. Also giving same output on changing arguments!
Hoping ur help!

Events calendar disapeared after synchronisation with "mails,contacts, calendar" setting

Hi Everyone,
I went to "mails, contacts, calendar" setting and I've synchronized all my events in the calendar section. It ereased all the events I've manually put through my calendar. Now I've lost all my meetings and I can't go back. Can you please help me find them ?
Thank you for your help,
Audrey

And now I've realized that when I manually put through an event in my calendar, it doesn't appear. Can you please tell me what's going on ?

I took my iMac to be fixed and when i got it back, mail was not set up. I called Apple Support and they helped me set up mail. Then the emails went to trash on the iMac and on the MacBook Pro (same emails). There are no numbers by the 'inbox' to tell how

I took my iMac to be fixed and when I got it back, mail was not set, so I called Apple and they helped me set up mail. Now the new mail goes to trash and there is no number by the 'inbox' to tell me how many new messages I have. I cannot save a draft to 'drafts.' There is a large number by 'trash' (I think all mail went to trash - including drafts). When I send myself an emai, it goes to trash also. This is on both my iMac (the one taken in) and my MacBook Pro (same emails) which was not taken in.
I went to 'rules' but have no idea what to do there. There are no rules in the rule box. When I click 'add rule' it puts 'rule 1' in the rule box, but since that was not there when I took it in, I delete it to have an empty rule box.
Can someone pleasehelp me. I am completely stupid with all this. Do not under stand what is suppose to be set up in 'rules.'
Thank you so much,
Arudi

Now new mail is coming to both computer's inboxes but there is no number on the stamp icon on dock to show number of emails on the iMac. Nor is there a number by either email address under MAILBOXES/inbox (sidebar) on the iMac. This number is showing on MacBook Pro.
I also can save drafts now on both computers.
Seems the Pro is fixed and the iMac is only missing the numbers on dock icon and by addresses in inbox.
Now that the problem is less, I feel i am wasting your time but will continue so maybe I can get those numbers back.
Two emails > AT&T email and gmail.
Apple's Mail program for email - yes, and gmail.
IMAP for both accounts.
Did not change mail configuration on MacBook.
The iMac and MacBook Pro have the same mail configuration except in Accounts/mailbox behaviours/store draft messages on the server was not marked on MacBook > it is now.
'Store junk messages on the server' was marked on one computer for gmail, but is unmarked on both now.
On the iMac, Accounts/Accounts info/Outgoing mail for gmail is smtpgmail.
On the MacBook Pro for gmail it is smpt.gmail.com (plus) my email address.
Rules/Add rule window, on the MacBook third line is 'Any Recipient', on the iMac third line is 'From."
The last box on that line has my email address on the MacBook.
The last box on that line has the last address I sent an emil to (last night), on the iMac.
On the last line on iMac, no box was selicted for 'to mailbox' > I choose 'inbox' because it is on the MacBook Pro.
Now I have a Rule #1 and am not sure I should have because there was no rules marked when I took the computer in.
Thank you. I relized I had done the labeling wrong when so much of my question appeared twice and no one else's did. I know how to do it now.
Thank you so much,
Arudi

Help needed setting up print server

i got 2 printer:
1 usb inkjet epson 1290
1 hp5100 network
i have 1 server:
serving epson for our col proof using powerripx as driver and shared via os x print server
i have 2 network interface card on the server.
my problem is: the position of the server in the office has only one network interface port, i want to have my HP connected to the 2nd network interface of the server and the server connected to the only available network point there and thus have the server serving both printer.
have set up the en1 interface, enable NAT, dhcp, firewall, but the server itself does not recognised the hp which is connected to the 2nd ethernet interface. when i move it on top of the ethernet list in system preferences it does recegnised it but the the whole print server is not accessible on the network.
can someone with more experience help me set this up.
thx

I didn't say it's impossible. I just offered an easy solution to your problem that will save you and you users some hassle in the long run (eg. when you come to troubleshoot you wn;t have to look at 2 networks and a firewall). I guess I just like easy solutions. And ,dude, 20 bucks...
If you want to go the hard(er) way you need to:
1. set up a second network address range on the second card
2. give the printer a fixed IP address within that range
3. ensure firewall is not blocking packets from/to the printer
4. config the printer on your print server & clients

I am facing wifi and mobile 2G signal issue after upgrading to IOS 6 from IOS 5 in IPhone 3GS. Please help, restoring setting even didn't helped.

I am facing wifi and mobile 2G signal issue after upgrading to IOS 6 from IOS 5 in IPhone 3GS. The mobile carrier signal as well as WIFI suddenly drops zero and are then restored automatically. Sometimes i cannot conenct to WIFI even standing infront of WIFI router. Please help, restoring setting even didn't helped.

Update: my phone's connecting to the WiFi again. I don't know what did the trick. I did nothing since reinstalling the software. It hadn't worked then, it is now. I tried connecting to my dad's phone's hotspot( he uses a Moto G), and it worked. I then tried connecting to the WiFi at a friend's house, and when I came back home, my phone was able to connect to my WiFi! Is it of any significance that my friend's router doesn't require a password? My issue has been resolved( for now; I hope I'm not counting my chickens before they've hatched). For anyone facing a similar issue, I suggest you try everything I did:
1. Turn your router off for a minimum of 30 seconds, turn it back on and try connecting.
2. Click on the WiFi network you are connected to, scroll to the bottom, tap "Renew Lease".
3. Do a soft and hard reset.
4. Reset network settings.
5. Back your data up, erase all content from settings menu, restore from backup.
6. Reinstall your software( put it in recovery mode).
I am not sure which of the above worked for me. Make sure you try everything. If none of the above works, take it to a genius bar or an authorised service provider. Good luck! :)

Are you using a Microsoft or Apache web server? If so, you can submit to a server-side script, which will bypass web mail and client-side email software such as OUTLOOK.

Need help w/ setting up ports to run a server for America's Army

Need help w/ setting up ports to run a server for America's Army. I read wat u need to change the ports but i dont understand wat to put. here is wat the site says
Q: How do I run my own server?
A: Quick and dirty server info:
1. Edit RunServer.bat to change the map.
2. Run RunServer.bat
Or:
server.exe LAN MAPNAME.aao (Host a LAN game)
server.exe global MAPNAME.aao (Host a Public game)
Also: When you create a server setup and want to allow other users to join your server, you need make sure the following ports are open for outgoing and incoming traffic in your firewall: 1716 (UDP), 1717 (UDP), 20025-20045 (TCP), and 20047 (TCP). Failure to open these ports will prevent the server from accepting connections from other players or prevent other players from being able to see your server online.
There are several settings that also need to be defined in your server configuration INI file (in the Windows version, these files are located in “My Documents\America’s Army Server Settings\{settings file name}.ini”).
[Engine.GameEngine]
ServerActors=Andromeda.AndromedaMBS
[Andromeda.Andromeda]
GameServerIp=
Make sure that you set the actual IP address of the America’s Army Server under GameServerIp= (for example, “GameServerIp=000.000.000.000”). The supplied address must be your actual internet IP address, if this is left blank or you supply the IP address for your internal network (such as 192.168.0.x), your server will not be able to accept connections from the internet.
If your server.ini file contains the setting shown below, please change the QueryPort setting to 20025. This setting can also be removed, as the default setting is port 20025.
[Andromeda.AndromedaMBS]
QueryPort=20025
Punkbuster user fix correction.
If [Engine.GameEngine] block has been changed to read as below:
[Engine.GameEngine]
ServerActors=IPDrv.AndromedaMBS
Please add the following block to your INI file:
[IpDrv.AndromedaMBS]
QueryPort=20025

Your images are not stored in the catalog. They are stored in folders on your computer. If you imported images that were already on your computer using the "Add" Option they are still in that same folder. If you imported images from your camera then they are in the folders that you specified when you imported. The catalog points to those images wherever they are located, and records all of the adjustments that you make to the image. When you send an image to Photoshop for further editing and save that image in Photoshop, it is normally saved back in the same folder as the original image.
Images are not "saved" in Lightroom. The basic default workflow in Lightroom is to store all of the adjustments in the catalog, leaving the original image completely unmodified. The catalog becomes the central controlling mechanism. It is a database that contains pointers to where the images are located and a record of all adjustments made to those images using Lightroom. Properly managed, you only have those original master files and secondary files for the ones that you have sent to Photoshop for further adjustment. When you want to provide a copy for someone else, you use the export dialogue for that purpose. I often export JPEG images to share with others or to post on the web. After I have usedthe JPEG for its intended purpose I delete it.

I need help in setting up a wireless connection

I need help in setting up a wireless connection.
I have a 2005 iMac G5 and currently I am using a Qwest DSL Modem with a Belkin router.
Qwest suggested that I buy a new wireless modem/router. It may be the Motorola 3347 or another wireless modem. I am worried about security when on the internet and have read about changing the SSID password and use the WPA for encryption. All of this is a mystery to me.
Also, I would like to buy from Directv the Linksys wireless adapter to use on my HD-DVR receiver to get their “On Demand Movies.”
My question is, does my iMac G5 have all of the security I need to use a wireless modem, and with the Linksys adapter can I view my photos or DVD’s in iMovie wirelessly to my TV in the living room?
I am concerned about security with a wireless setup, but it seems that all of the new TV’s have the ability to have a wireless connection to the internet.
Any suggestions would help me.
Thanks,
DaisyMay

Downloaded Epsom printer app need help to set printer up on iPad 3

Need help to set up Epsom printer to ipad3 downloaded Epsom app can find the printer but don't know where to set up

It's Epson, not epsom. Epsom refers to epsom salt (magnesium sulfate).
... Anyway, iPads don't have printers directly set up. You might interface with a printer over a WiFi. That could be done either using Apple's AirPrint (if the printer is new enough) or maybe you have Epson's iPrint utility.
If you have the iPrint utility, you simply open the utility, click the "maintenance" button in the lower left, and select the "Printer" on the top and set it up there.

Help on Setting up Web Cache.

Hi,
I need help for setting up OAS Web Cache, whether the following setup is correct. I’m new to this.
When I login to http://server2.domain.com:8300/appname1/, the display URL is changed to http://server2.domain.com:7778/appname1/. However there is no activity in the Web Cache Statistics.
We have OAS Web Cache standalone installed on one server using port 80 (e.g. server1.domain.com) and OAS Application Server (HTTP & J2EE) installed on another server using port 7777 (e.g. server2.domain.com).
Currently, when our user login to the application, they use the following URLs:
http://server2.domain.com:8300/appname1/
http://server2.domain.com:19000/appname2/
I have setup OAS Web Cache as follows:

Any advise is appreciated.

as mentioned above, All that you need is a optical cable (a toslink) and that will provide you with the 5.1 sound output. BUT and this is important, the Game or Movie must support 5.1 for you to get 5.1 sound (not a lot of Mac games have 5.1 output) also you will need to ensure that you setup the right settings on your sound Preference panel. You dont need any additional boxes or cables as long as your 5.1 speaker system accepts 5.1 audio via digital toslink (eg optical cable). the z5500 is suitable and will give you 5.1 sound if used with a game or movie that has 5.1 sound output.
Good luck and enjoy the sound
