Just Switched To Mac's and Need Help With A Few Issues!

Hi All,
I finally did it and switched to a Mac!! Never thought it would happen as I always felt guilty about the cost but after 5 laptops crashing on me - well, I just could not take it anymore! I managed to get a fairly good deal on a 15" Macbook Pro - 2.2/120GB version. I still don't know much about the mac way but am trying to learn so any help would be appreciated!
1). Is there any kind of video tutorial (preferably free!) that I can use that will help me learn the Ma OS X? I have Tiger 10.4.11 on my MBP (Did you hear that - MY MBP!!!)
2). AOL Assured me that they fully support Mac before I purchased (only 5 times!) but after I had bought it - they then told me that they do not! I got the AOL disk for Mac but it kind of ***** - features are missing etc. Does anyone in the UK run their Mac's with AOL and does it run as per normal? Any advice with AOL & Mac?
3). AOL also told me - hey, no probs - of course you can transfer all your old emails, favourites folders, personal filing cabinet from a PC to a Mac - but then, after I bought it - the so called dedicated Mac Experts at AOL tell me that simply is not possible - What advice can anyone give me who has switched from PC to Mac with AOL and who needed to transfer all their stuff over? AOL tells you totally different things depending on who you talk to and even from what their web page state! I am really fed up with them!
4). If I am ever successful in getting all my many years worth of data from AOL on a PC to a Mac, I am really intent of changing ISP's - what are the best ones for Mac that offer good Mac support, good deals and no charges for telephone support?
5). I was initially happy with Tiger as again, AOL assured me they supported it but not Leopard (even their website says so) and as I stupidly thought that it must be true (we are talking AOL here!). Now I know that they don't support anything Mac, I am contemplating moving to Leopard - I am a little cautious as I heard there were/are many bugs and unhappy leopard experiences - have the majority of these been solved yet and is it advisable to change to Leopard or should I wait until an updated version comes out?
6). My MBP was originally bought in the US but is registered to my name in the UK. it has 6 months Apple warranty left and I wish to buy Applecare. Apple says it 'recommends' buying Applecare in the country at which the item is registered (not bought, as I understand it). Does that mean, if I buy Applecare in the USA, Apple UK will still accept it and service my MBP as they would do any other or will I have to have the hassle of sending the thing to the USA if it needs attention? Applecare USA T&C's state only for the 50 States & Canada and Applecare UK state only for the UK & EU. Both however state international servicing?! I am a bit confused on this one. I travel a lot and need to know, that any Applecare I buy will not then be limited to just the places they state in the T&C's. As It reads to me, Applecare purchased in the USA/Canada will not cover the UK/Europe/ROTW and vice versa. Is this true or am I missing something or just plain thick?
5). I really wish to upgrade the 120GB HDD. My understanding is that it must be done by either Apple (who charge really silly money) or if correct, at an "Authorized Apple Service Provider" who of course will be much cheaper. If true, does this mean at ANY authorized apple service provider on the planet or just ones in which the item is registered? If I do the upgrade with a service provider, will Apple then also service the new HDD if something goes wrong as per normal anywhere in the world or will they then say, sorry, will not service the new HDD and you have to go back to the place where you had it installed, even though it was one of their authorized service centers? (that would really suck)!
6). The spelling and dictionary (and a few other things) are set to US English - how can I set to UK English? I have tried but to no avail so far.
7) What and how should I set the Firewall settings so I will not get attacks by any form of malware? (I do not know much about this area and what the implications mean)!
Well, that's it so far - please bear my ignorance, I am so new to Mac's and hope this to be one of the smarter decisions I have made in life! Already I have strange sensation that I never had with all those years of Microsoft & PC's - I kinda feel reassured, safe, that if I have problems, they will get sorted, My life will now be easier and not having to worry so much about crashes, viruses, trojans etc, gives me a sense of liberation and contentment almost - very strange feeling but a **** good one! (if only the women in my life were like that)!
Thank You All From A PC to Mac Switcher (and NO! I do not feel guilty or scared anymore)!
SuaveBhav!

I can help you with your questions about AppleCare, and can also reassure you that both the macbook pro and Leopard will be worth your investment and the time you are putting into figuring out how to get your data across. I switched from windows when I bought my macbook a year and a half ago and would not use any other system now. The other day I completed the transition by erasing parallels and Windows from my system entirely.
As for AppleCare, you can get warranty care anywhere in the world, no matter where you buy your AppleCare. Mine was bought and is registered in the US, I live in Slovakia, and have had it serviced several times in Austria and Slovakia under the warranty without any problems at all. There are differences, however, in exactly what the warranty covers from place to place, in accordance with the law in each place that AppleCare is issued. Even though I live in the EU, my agreement with Apple is an American one, and the American guarantees hold. If EU law would demand that Apple fix more things, for instance, than American law does, I could not get those things repaired under my agreement, and vice versa.
Basically, though, I understand my agreement with AppleCare to be that they will fix all problems/damage that are not my fault free of charge for two years after my initial one-year warranty runs out, and that is good enough for me.

Urgently need some help with a few Swing questions

Hi
I'm hoping someone can help me, I need to get these problems fixed very soon or I'm in trouble.
Scenario: I have a JTreeTable inside a JScrollPane inside a JPanel that is inside a JFrame.
Problems I'm having (solutions or help with any of all would be greatly appreciated):
1. I'm trying to make it possible to do a selection in the JTreeTable by right-clicking the mouse (as well as the normal left click), but only if there is nothing currently selected, so I do something like this:
        int[] sel = treeTable.getSelectedRows();
        if ((sel == null) || (sel.length == 0)) {
            treeTable.setColumnSelectionAllowed(false);
            treeTable.setRowSelectionAllowed(true);
            treeTable.setRowSelectionInterval(0, 0);            // but I don't know what these values should be set to, where to get them from?
        }I want to select the row at the mouse cursor, I have the x/y values but I don't know how to relate them to the row index. The full feature that I require is I need
2. I have a popup menu that appears after a right click on the JTreeTable, it's handled by a MouseListener attached to the JTreeTable, I want this to also appear anywhere else in the JScrollpane. I've tried moving the MouseListener to the JScrollPane, but then the popup stops working if user clicks inside JTreeTable, if I add it to both, it almost works, except that user cannot click below the JTreeTable's first column. Any ideas on this?
3. How can I change the JTreeTable selection behaviour so that you can only multi-select using Ctrl/Shift and not the mouse? Mouse must only allow single connection, I'm currently using:
treeTable.setSelectionMode(ListSelectionModel.MULTIPLE_INTERVAL_SELECTION);But this allows mouse drag selection as well, which shouldn't be there. How is this avoidable?
4. I want to make the minimize button to make an icon in system tray and be able to restore it by clicking on it. Also I want to be able to minimze from a popup menu, I've currently got the following:
        thisApp.getMainFrame().setState(Frame.ICONIFIED);
        thisApp.getMainFrame().setVisible(false);
        thisApp.getMainFrame().pack();
        try {
           tray.add(trayIcon);
        } catch (AWTException ex) {
        }thisApp is a copy of the SingleFrameApplication variable that is passed to the main frame constructor (main frame extends FrameView). This code above doesn't do anything except create the tray icon. If I click on the tray icon (code below) then it opens up a blank window:
        trayIcon.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
            public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
                thisApp.getMainFrame().setVisible(true);
                thisApp.getMainFrame().setState(Frame.NORMAL);
                thisApp.getMainFrame().pack();
                tray.remove(trayIcon);
        });I need to get this part fixed and I optionally also want to bind this behaviour to the normal minimize button.
Please, please help!

Issue 2 has been solved, was an error in the MouseListener code.

Help with placement of div tags

Hello. I am sorry to ask what probably is a dumb question, but I'm new, using Dreamweaver CS5, and I need some help. I'm sure I'll be posting here a few times during this process of building a new site, but I'm hoping it can be a good way for me to learn. I've watched a lot of tutorial videos, and so here I am.
I have my site, but I'm having problems being able to place div tags. I set it up with a wrapper div, a header div, a content div, footer div, etc. But, inside those divs I want to have other div's where I can place things like a client login box, etc. So, I tried and tried to place them after one div, or before one, but I just can't get them to work right. I'm very proficient at Photoshop, but web work is fairly new. I've done a few sites, but in Golive and just basic bringing them in from Photoshop. Now I want to learn correctly, so I'm trying all of this.
I found a way to make a box, using AP Div tag, and then move that where I want it, but, it doesn't work right for me then. I don't want it fixed in the same spot absolutely, but rather I want it to move with the page. I'm going to post a link to the site I'm working on, in case that helps. But, if you look at the site so far, you can see for example I want the text box that says client login to move as you make the page wider or smaller. It's fixed now. But, it's the only possible way I know how to put the box and div tag where I want it. When I just try to insert a div tag (not an AP div) it just goes underneath the div above it.
What I'm asking is, how do I place div's within div's? Or, can I use this AP div to put it where I want, and then change it to a regular div, and it stay in the right spot? I just don't understand how exactly to place divs where I want them, unless I use the AP div box and move it around the screen. Also, if I have a div box setup, is there a way to drag it somewhere else or reposition it somewhere else on the screen just by dragging? It's all a bit hard for me to figure out at this point, but I appreciate any help you can give me.
The AP Div I used is at the top that says client login. That's the box/table/div tag I'm trying to set up correctly, so it moves with the other elements, like the logo, as you make the page wider or less wide.

Thank you again.

DW is not drag & drop friendly like graphics or word processing apps.
APDivs are NOT for primary layouts. They are for special situations and should be handled with care or you'll end up with a mess. Here is why:
http://apptools.com/examples/pagelayout101.php
The best advice I can offer is to familiarize yourself with HTML markup (content) and CSS (styles) before you even open Dreamweaver. Without a working knowledge of code, you're not going to get good results.

Little bit of help with the duplication process needed

Hi
I trying to duplicate a database from one server to a remote server. They are both running windows server 2003 (my first problem) , the primary server is running oracle 11gR1 and the (hopefully) receiving server is running 11gR2(is that going to be a problem?) and I'm a little stuck on some parts of the process.
The book I'm using says to edit the listener.ora file to include a SID_DESC of the remote database. Here is my listener.ora file with the modifications
LISTENER =
(DESCRIPTION_LIST =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = test.host.local)(PORT = 1521))
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = IPC)(KEY = EXTPROC))
SID_LIST_LISTENER =
(SID_LIST =
(SID_DESC =
(SID_NAME = CGARDMSTR)
(ORACLE_HOME = G:\app\administrator\product\11.1.0\db_1)
(PROGRAM = extproc)
(SID_DESC =
(GLOBAL_DBNAME = CGARDMSTR)
(ORACLE_HOME =G:\app\administrator\product\11.1.0\db_1)
(SID_NAME = CGARDMSTR)
*(SID_DESC* *=*
*(GLOBAL_DBNAME* *=* cgard)
*(ORACLE_HOME* *=F:\oracle\product\11.2.0\dbhome_1)*
*(SID_NAME* *=* cgard)
(bold is what i added)
it then said to chnage my tnsnames.ora
CGARD =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = test.host.local)(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVER = DEDICATED)
(SERVICE_NAME = cgard)
CGARD5DE =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = test.host.local)(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVER = DEDICATED)
(SERVICE_NAME = CGARD5DEV)
CGARDMST =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = test.host.local)(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVER = DEDICATED)
(SERVICE_NAME = CGARDMSTR)
cgard =
*(DESCRIPTION =*
*(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = live.host.local)(PORT = 1521))*
*(CONNECT_DATA =*
*(SERVER = DEDICATED)*
*(SERVICE_NAME = cgard)*
I changed the local domain to host for business reasons
The next step was to create a initialization parameter file which I am guessing is a pfile and hopefully not a spfile. It then says to only enter one param db_name and the conversion params if the filesystem is diffrent. Problem is I don't know what to do with this file, if I am suppose to switch the second database to this file then surly I would need some more params? Anyway thats the first of many questions.
When I try to run through the rman commands it describes it also trips up:
RMAN> connect auxiliary sys/*********@live.host.local
RMAN-00571: ===========================================================
RMAN-00569: =============== ERROR MESSAGE STACK FOLLOWS ===============
RMAN-00571: ===========================================================
RMAN-04006: error from auxiliary database: ORA-12170: TNS:Connect timeout occurr
ed
The other database is up and connectable via sqldevloper so I'm guessing it was my configuration of listener and tnsnames
Ok to reiterate my questions are:
1) what needs to be in the pfile I create for the database thats going to receive the backup and what do I do with that file when I have made it?
2) I am pretty sure my listener and tsunamis config is completely wrong so can I have some pointers on fixing that?
3) Was the reason I could not connect to the receiving database my tns and listener config or is it something else?
Quite a few other questions but untill I know some more about the above I doubt I will be able to ask properly.
Also if this helps the book I am using is Expert Oracle Database 11g Administration and the page is 835(the method that begins on that page) and I am willing to write out the whole method if you need more details.
Oh and if you havent figured it out I am very new to this so if some of this sounds very wrong or just stupid just say what I need to change and I will get right on it.
Thanks
Alex

So I am not quite sure what it wants. I read somewhere about a password file but I don't understand how it will help, also most things I have looked at wernt clear on how to do it. I took a stab anyway:
G:\app\administrator\product\11.1.0\db_1\BIN>orapwd file=orapwcgard password=*********** entries=20 ignorecase=n
Was run on the original database host.
File was then copied to "F:\oracle\product\11.2.0\dbhome_1\database" on the receiving database's host it was then renamed to PWDcgard.ora as there was file there already with that name.
It did not help(same error).
The book I am using mentions the 'PASSWORD FILE' param to be used with the duplicate command but I cant find a example on how to use it so any help with that would be great.
Thanks for the effort so far guys its really appreciated.

Help with MOD and DIV

I have to calculate minutes to debit from an account based on
the call length (rounded to the next full minute). But I'm having
issues since I don't know the CF syntax for what I need to do.
Here is my test code (the call "Length" is dynamic in the
real application):
<cfoutput>
<cfset Length = 90>
<cfset xMin = Round(#Length#/60)>
<cfset yMin = (#Length# Mod 60)>
xMin = #xMin#<br />
yMin = #yMin#<br />
<CFIF yMin GT 0>
<cfset xMin = (xMin + 1)>
</CFIF>
Minutes Debited = #xMin#<br />
</cfoutput>
Right now, that outputs 3 minutes, and it should be 2 (but
it's 3 because of the "Round" function, obviously)
I'd LIKE to be able to write this: <cfset xMin = (#Length#
DIV 60)>
How would I do that in ColdFusion? I don't have my books
handy and I've tried looking it up online, but only find results
dealing with the HTML div tag which isn't what I need. Hard to look
up something when you don't know what you're looking for. Ugh. I'm
hoping someone can help. I'm sure it's something simple.
thanks!

I think what you're looking for is the ceiling function which
"Determines the closest integer that is greater than a specified
number."
<cfset xMin = Ceiling(Length/60)>

Need help with "percentage of" I need to see grandparent totals

Theres a division in my database between Supervisors, Representants, and Lines.
The hierarchy is Supervisors -> Representants -> Lines
I have a measure called "acum sold" and I need the percentage of it.
I`m using "Percentage of" -> "Collumn"and it works untill I reach the Lines level, then it doesn`t work (well it does, but not in the way I want)
Basically it`s this
Supervisor----Acum Sold---% Acum Sold
X-------------1000------------100%----
Then I go to the next level
Supervisor----Representant----Acum Sold---% Acum Sold
-----X----------------XY------------------500---------------50%-----
-----X----------------YZ------------------500---------------50%-----
And it`s still the way I want, but when I drill to XY representant...
Supervisor----Representant----Lines-------Acum Sold---% Acum Sold
-----X----------------XY------------XY1---------100---------------20%-----
-----X----------------XY------------XY2---------400---------------80%-----
The percentage is based off the XY totals (percentage of the 500 total acum sold) but I actually need the percentage based on the Supervisor
I need something like this
Supervisor----Representant----Lines-------Acum Sold---% Acum Sold
-----X----------------XY------------XY1---------100---------------10%-----
-----X----------------XY------------XY2---------400---------------40%-----
Because XY1 and XY2 sold only 50% of the supervisor`s total. But BIEE is always trying to get 100% of the parent level, instead of the "grandparent" one.
I hope I didn`t sound that confusing, I really need help with this one.
Thanks in advance

You need to use level based measures. Look up documentation/this forum for Level based measures (LBM).
In short you drag a fact meaure to a heirarchy level in business mapping layer and it will always aggreagtre to that level. So create a total and grandparent level then divide child sum by grandparent total (LBM)

Need help with a few things in Photoshop CS4

1) When I change a photo, I click to save, up pops the JPEG Options box, which has been set to 12 since last year. Today, it suddenly changes itself to 6 for no good reason. Each and every photo I change, I have to now tell it 12, not 6. How do I get it back to 12, and get it to stay there??? How/why did it change itself in the first place?
2) How can I view photos and select the ones I want to go to the lab? In previous CS versions, I could view large thumbnails, and use the flag feature. I can't seem to find out how to do that, within Bridge.
3) When I pull a lot of photos up, say 50, in Photoshop, and try to float them all to view them, it won't let me, says I have too many windows open, and to close some so it can float the remaining ones. This is retarded. Without floating, the images numbers are all stuck together in a line on that top bar, and I have to click each number to see the image, but I can only see maybe 6 images total, unless I close them one by one, which is then replaced with a different image. Any suggestions on how to undo this feature altogether? I always love "new features" that makes everything 20 times as hard as it was before. Great thinking.
Thanks.

For #2, adjusting the size wasn't the problem. It was flagging them to sort them. I found out that in CS4, it has a different name other than flagging.
For #3, I have tons of memory. 4 gb on a quad core computer. It's maddening that when the images are open, they're in those stupid boxes, very hard to work with. Free floating is so much easier. But if I say to float them, it won't. It just says too many are open. Well, they're ALREADY open. I just now want to FLOAT them. But it won't do it. Maybe if I have 20 or 30 open, then it'll float them.

Please help with a few drivers for z60m after fresh install

I got a bad virus(several actually) that I could not eradicate. I was advised to just wipe and reinstall the OS since it is not under warranty anymore. I could not find the recovery disk, must have been lost inthe last military move could not find a replacement recovery disk at the IBM website so I went out and bought an xpprof OS thinking it should not be that hard to find any drivers XP does not provide . I had no problems doing that on our acer laptop and a friends HP laptop before so was pretty confident.. Boy was I wrong this has been the reinstall from hell. I reinstalled the audiodrivers from theIBM website but the speakers still don't work. The laptop will not recognize the wireless, even after installing the drivers for that and I can't find anything out about why the dock does not work, I assume there are drivers for that too. I also have 4 ugly yellow question marks that I can't seem to get rid of in device manager. At this point I am already out the price of XP Prof but I really need this laptop my husband took the acer laptop when he deployed to Afghanistan, only because I was confident I could get this one fully functional. I see now my self confidence was badly misplaced ,even though I am working on a degree in computer technology this laptop is kicking my tush.
Is there anyone that could help please
1. help me find why my speakers still dont work even though they are recognized as soundmax in device manager
I found several references to this issue in the forums but there does not seem to be a resolution
2. help me figure out why my laptop suddenly (after the fresh install)does not know it even has a wireless capability even after numerous attempts at installing the driver(driver seems to install just finebut upon reboot there is still no wireless available
3. figure out how I can get my dock to work again
the laptop has always worked great til now and all these things were functional before the virus and reinstall of the OS)
4. get rid of ugly yellow exclamation points under Other Devices, I am sure they must be important( I am sure at least one or more of them has to do with the wireless)
sorry this is so long Im just frustrated thanks so much for anyone that can give some guidance on this

hanaleia, welcome to the forum,
download and install ThinkVantage System Update, it should get the drivers for you. Please ensure you read down the site as you may need to install a patch for XP SP2.
Let us know how you get on.
Regards

Help with my research! Need you!

I am writing a report on improving performance in relational databases, for my primary research I need to gather information straight from some experienced DBAs. I am going to be visiting a few companies in person but thought some extra research online would be really good!
I need some DBAs with good experience of oracle databases. My report topic is improving performance in databases.
There are a few questions below that I would like you to fill out! Please copy and paste the questions into an e-mail and e-mail the answers to [email protected] with subject: Oracle research
If you could also reply to this thread once you have sent the email so that it bumps the thread and also allows me to keep an eye on how good we are doing.
Thank you! and your time is much appreciated!

Most common performance problems in your database(details)
How often is your database tuned?
What are the biggest causes of poor performance in your database?
Poor database design
Poor SQL
Poor use of triggers/procedures/functions

If yes please provide details
For each of the following please state weather or not you use these and how much of an impact they have on the overall performance of your database.
Normalization

Performance in database applications is down to -
Application design, including logical data model
Application implementation
If these two are got right then putting it into any Oracle database with default parameters should require zero tuning.
Tuning on a regular basis suggests either the application design or implementation was sub-optimal, but "cannot be changed" or you are suffereing from Compulsive Tuning Disorder. In any event it is an exercise in twiddling futility.

Newbie to iPhoto - Can anyone help with a few questions?

Hi everyone,
I have had iPhoto since December and I love it. I have been able to naviagate around it pretty well and love the fact I can put names to faces. I own a childcare business so this helps me individualise each child's photo's which I put on a thumb drive each week.
The things that I am having problems with are...
1. When I am uploading photo's from my SD card do they go directly into Events?
2. Why do they have event and albums? Is this to create just a few photo's from each event etc.? I am trying not to have double ups as when dealing with so many individual kids it can be confusing.
3. I noticed in the albums there is
- Photo Stream
- Last Import
- Photo's
If I delete these albums will these photo's be deleted from my events?
4. I also have photo's on FB which appear to be showing in my albums below (facebookTraceyBrock)
if I delete any of these do they delete photo's from my facebook?
5. Why is there events and albums? don't they both do the same thing? or as a guess is it just because you can import only the photo's you want to a specific album.
Any help on the best way to organise photo's would be so very much appreciated!
Thankyou in advance
Tracey

1. When I am uploading photo's from my SD card do they go directly into Events?
Yes.
2. Why do they have event and albums? Is this to create just a few photo's from each event etc.? I am trying not to have double ups as when dealing with so many individual kids it can be confusing.
Basic Concept: Every Photo is in the Library. Events are a view of the Library. Delete a photo from an Event and you delete from iPhoto
More opportunities for organising. Events are handy, but very limited: Events are organisation for those who can't really be bothered. They are automatic - based entirely on Date and Time the camera records the photos as taken. You can move photos between Events, you can Merge Events, you can Rename them and sort them in various ways except one: You cannot manually sort in an Event as Events are all automated.
Events also contain the Actual photos. So if you have a photo in more than one Event you are using more disk space than you need.
Albums contain pointers to the Photos in the Library. A Photo can be in 50 albums and use no disk space extra disk space whatever. You can mix and match in any way you like in an Album. Photos from different events, photos categorised or selected in any way you fancy.
I'll post a longer answer at the bottom of this, showing some of the possibilities of Albums
I noticed in the albums there is
- Photo Stream
- Last Import
- Photo's
If I delete these albums will these photo's be deleted from my events?
Photos is not in Albums. It's under Library, like Events. It's another view of the same material. Like different windows into the same room. Deleting Photos from Photos is removing them from the Library
PhotoStream and Last Import are just handy shortcuts. They don't contain the photos, just pointers to them. There is no duplication here. There is no need to delete anything from here.
I also have photo's on FB which appear to be showing in my albums below (facebookTraceyBrock)
if I delete any of these do they delete photo's from my facebook?
Yes. Because you're using iPhoto to manage the pics on Facebook.
5. Why is there events and albums? don't they both do the same thing? or as a guess is it just because you can import only the photo's you want to a specific album.
See above. Some of the possibilities of Albums, Smart Albums and so on:
I use Events simply as big buckets of Photos: Spring 08, July - Nov 06 are typical Events in my Library. I use keywords and Smart Albums extensively. I title the pics broadly.
I keyword on a
Who
What
Where basis (The When is in the photos's Exif metadata). I also rate the pics on a 1 - 5 star basis.
Using this system I can find pretty much find any pic in my 40k library in a couple of seconds.
So, for example, I have a batch of pics titled 'Seattle 08' and a typical keywording might include: John, Anne, Landscape, mountain, trees, snow. With a rating included it's so very easy to find the best pics we took at Mount Rainier.
File -> New Smart Album
set it to 'All"
title contains Seattle
keyword is mountain
keyword is snow
rating is 5 stars
Or, want a chronological album of John from birth to today?
New Smart Album
Keyword is John
Set the View options to Sort By Date Ascending
Want only the best pics?
add Rating is greater than 4 stars
The best thing about this system is that it's dynamic. If I add 50 more pics of John to the Library tomorrow, as I keyword and rate them they are added to the Smart Album.
In the end, organisation is about finding the pics. The point is to make locating that pic or batch of pics findable fast. This system works for me.

I need help with motion control. I am programming in Visual Basic. I will need help with what parts I need to purchase from NI, along with help on the code.

I am using a Papst servo motor and I need to know where to start and what to purchase to get this motor to spin. I am using visual basic and in my program I calculate the direction and RPM's needed from the motor. It will spin anywhere from 1 to 10000 RPM's. It seems rather easy, but I have no idea on how to spin the motor at the specific RPM, and stop it with a command stop in the program. Please help.

We really should know a little more about your intended uses for this system, but assuming you want to do relatively simple (or even not so simple!) motion, you'll need a few components...
A motion controller, such as the PCI-7342, can take your VB commands and turn them into the commands needed to "run" the motor. Next you'll need a drive, such as the MID-7342. This includes the servo amplifier that actually powers the motor. It also has connections to "pass through" the encoder signals from the motor back to the motion controller.
The above-named pieces assume one or two axes of motion. You'll also need a cable to connect the two (can't remember the model right now). You can use MAX to configure the motion controller, and there are just a few VB calls you
'll need to make using NI-Motion functions to define the motion and get it going.
Hope this helps!

Help with a few programs

I'm a beginner to java and i really have no clue..
I have a few programs that need to be done by tonight - been trying to make sense of it, but i dont seem to be getting anywhere.
is there anyone that can help me??
1..)
Write a program which asks the user to enter an integer, a double and a String, then prints out these lines:
The integer plus one using the increment operator.
Cast the double into an integer and print it out.
The remainder of the integer divided by the double. Cast the double into an integer first and use the remainder operator.
The String in quote marks (").
Assume the integer and the double are the dimensions of a rectangle then print the area of the rectangle (as a double).
Each output line must have an explanation. E.g.
Value of integer plus one is:
2)
Write a program which calculates a price (in $�s) then adds tax (at 15%) and P&P (Post and Packing) at $4.50.
Ask the user for a value (double)
Print out nicely the original value
Print out nicely the new value which is the original value plus tax and P&P.
3)
Write a program which asks the user to enter 3 values - a double less than 50.0, an integer greater than 5 but less than 100 and a String. (You need not bother checking these!)
Use the Random class to generate a random number between 0 and one less than the integer entered
Printout the total of multiplying together the random number, the length of the String and the double entered.
Important Information
Any help will be appreciated. Thanks

Uhh...
You are screwed so I will help you out with one of the first tuts I was able to make sense of.
Here is a anual interest program, it really won't be hard to edit it into Tax and it already has the input box.
public class Interest3 {
               This class implements a simple program that
               will compute the amount of interest that is
               earned on an investment over a period of
               5 years. The initial amount of the investment
               and the interest rate are input by the user.
               The value of the investment at the end of each
               year is output. The rate must be input as a
               decimal, not a percentage (for example, 0.05,
               rather than 5).
            public static void main(String[] args) {
                double principal; // the value of the investment
                double rate;       // the annual interest rate
                TextIO.put("Enter the initial investment: ");
                principal = TextIO.getlnDouble();
                TextIO.put("Enter the annual interest rate: ");
                rate = TextIO.getlnDouble();
                int years = 0; // counts the number of years that have passed
                while (years < 5) {
                   double interest = principal * rate;   // compute this year's interest
                   principal = principal + interest;     // add it to principal
                   years = years + 1;    // count the current year.
                   if (years > 1) {
                      TextIO.put("The value of the investment after ");
                      TextIO.put(years);
                      TextIO.put(" years is $");
                   else {
                      TextIO.put("The value of the investment after 1 year is $");
                   TextIO.putln(principal);
                } // end of while loop
            } // end of main()
         } // end of class Interest3So now save that as Interest3.java in a notepad doc under all files in a directory such as Tax on your desktop.
Now here's the longer one...
(I uploaded it so just click the link)
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=04SJA1J2
^^^^^
Save it as TextIO.java under all files in the "Tax" directory.
Compile it using this: (Notepad, all files, Compile.bat in tax directory)
@echo off
title Compile Tax Program
javac *.java
pauseThen run it using this: (Notepad, all files, Run.bat in tax directory)
@echo off
title Run Tax
java Interest3
pauseNow just edit the system.out.println from "Enter the initial investment" to like "Enter the amount of money"
Then "Enter the anual interest rate" to "Enter the tax amount"
Then remove the calculations for 5 years and rewrite that outprintln. If this is incorrect, as I didn't really read your entire post, I'll quickly slap together a tax program.

CF8 Enterprise migration to another hosting provider. Help with migration plan (license) needed

Hi there!
We are running a CF8 Enterpsise on an older root Server (virtuozzo VM) and we need to switch to another provider (vmWare VM).
We will probably need more then one month for the migration and I need to come up with a migration plan that doesn't involve rendering the service unavailable.
I've tried to contact Adobe hotline, but the people there knew nothing about licensing, the other number I got from them kicks me after 20 minutes on hold... so I was hoping to be able to find answers here.
I understand CF Enterprise is licensed for 2 CPUs, for unlimited number of virtual machines, so the other server wouldn't qualify to run on the same license key because it's different 2 CPUs. If I could migrate everything within a month then I could use the 30 day demo license, but I will need more then 30 days.
So what are my options? Even if I wanted to buy CF8 Standard to cover the second server while migrating (am not really willing to pay $$$ just to cover few weeks of migration), I'm not sure I'd be able to find a place to buy it. CF9 or CF10 is not an option because we'd need to rewrite the code. What happenes if we do use same license key for few days on both servers - does it stop working? Any hope of me contacting Adobe and getting some kind of "extension" of the 30 day demo license so we can complete the migration?
Any ideas what I can to?
TIA

When you install WS2012R2 on KMS02, you can add the VA role (or you can add it after initial Windows installation), this gives you KMShost and also VAMT.
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-au/library/dn613834.aspx
http://blogs.technet.com/b/askcore/archive/2013/03/14/installing-volume-activation-services-role-in-windows-server-2012-to-setup-a-kms-host.aspx
(this article describes WS2012, not WS2012R2, but it's the same procedure. Note that a Windows Server 2012 R2 CSVLK can activate Windows Vista, Windows Server 2008, Windows 7, Windows Server 2008 R2, Windows 8, Windows Server 2012, Windows 8.1
and Windows Server 2012 R2 KMS clients.)
To do this, you will need the KMShost product key (CSVLK) for WS2012R2. You can't use an older version product key for this.
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/22510.volume-activation-kms-mak-adba-avma.aspx
So, you would setup KMS02 with the KMShost feature for Windows, then add the Office2010 KMShost license pack + Office2010 KMShost key, then add the Office2013 KMShost license pack + Office2013 KMShost key. (the Office license pack downloads are linked
in the above wiki)
By default, KMS02 will attempt to self-publish into your DNS (so that your KMSclients can discover it and begin activating with it).
If existing KMSclients have previously discovered KMS01, those existing KMSclients will continue to contact KMS01 (because clients will cache the KMS they last discovered and used).
You may wish to export the data from KMS01/VAMT2.0 as a file, then, import to KMS02/VAMT3.1:

Urgent help with Pages 5.0 needed

Hi guys,
I need urgent help! I deleted Pages 5.0 (as I HATED it) but now can't open a very important document. Can someone please tell me how to reinstall it??
Thanks
Kellie

Downloading again is not as easy as that. you must find the app in the "Purchased" section of the
app store and I think you then must hold down the option key to reinstall it.
BTW, I only worked with one document as a trial for Pages 5 and then imported it to Word and saved it. I then deleted Pages 5 (I can't believe anyone who works with software would think that piece of worthless junk would sufice for anyone who uses a word processor professionally), reopened the Word document and saved it in Pages 09.
I hope this helps
