Hey Baby-boomer! You out there?

This here is Shrimperchuck back to ya.
O-Kay, I had to get a replacedment 2gig chip set which seems to work fine=after having to re-boot from scratch&%^$%%! Got what I could backed up to DVD, Now I can't seem to get my back-ups to reinstall corectly? I aint no tech-no-geek, ya unnerstan! I was a commercial fisherman fer ever, but when I see 'back up to disc' I figer Cool, I'll do that! Great! Got all kindsa stuff on back up discs. Now what do I do with em?
Apparently my 'from scratch' re-boot aint as jazzed up as my system had once been, what with all the software updates etc. Have added software up-dates, got photos and music that wont get back to there original place. Whats the trick? If there is oe?
Thanks!

I am now!!!!
I am not ashamed to say I am NOT a backer upper. However, I can point you in the direction of where to find some possible solutions:

Hopefully, others who back up *faithfully* will chime in here to help you out further.

  • I have a Yamaha DGX220 Piano Keyboard Does anyone of you out there experience the same problem?

    I have a Yamaha DGX220 Piano Keyboard and I have downloaded their driver. After downloading and installing there is no interfacing with the computer, it doesn't recognize the Yamaha Midi driver.
    Does anyone of you out there experience the same problem? I have downloaded the Mavericks OS.. The Yamaha company thinks there is a bug within Mavericks that causes this no connection issue.

    Hi,
    Would you explain what remote MIDI sequencer is?
    Your keyboard has a bulit-in Music recording device. This is actually a buiti-in digital MIDI music sequencer. It can also, output through the MIDI connectors the MIDI sequence to either software on a computer or other external MIDI devices like dedicated sound modules or computer software sound modules or software sequencers
    I use both software MIDI music software sequencers and a dedicated hardware MIDI music recording sequencer in my system.
    Dedicated digital MIDI hardwaremusic sequencers do the same things as the bulit-in sequencer on your keyboard and computer software music recording sequencing.
    Digital MIDI music sequencers DO NOT RECORD SOUNDS.
    They record things like what keys are pressed on the musical keyboard, how much key sensitivity and pressure was applied, other parameters like if you change the pitch of the keyboard up and down by half steps, the sound number and sound bank number, records pedal information, records wheel and pitch bend wheel information, records other MIDI active button  controller information, etc.
    Basically, keyboard sequencers, hardware sequencers and software sequencers record the performance nuances of your playing and NOT the actual sounds that you are hearing.

  • Derek Russell you out there?

    You said you liked the video. Witch one? I'm curious. I agree with you on the links being hard to see. I've been wondering if there's anyway to change the color or location of them? The web site your setting up sounds pretty cool, you'll have to keep everyone posted. I checked out your post "site feedback 2", looks good. That text box with scroll was sweet! How did you do that? I'd like to something like that for my videos. Do you know if you can display links to your other pages in one?

    Hi TS,
    Assuming the behavior you want is that any time you mouse
    over an image, it displays that title, and when you mouse out, it
    switches to whatever is currently selected ... you are going to
    have to use a different solution than what you are currently doing,
    since you are changing the current row of your data set every time
    you mouse over.
    You'll probably need a function like:
    function SetTitle(title)
    Spry.$("smTitle").innerHTML = title;
    function SetTitleByRowNumber(rowNum)
    SetTitle(dschapters.getRowNumber(rowNum).title);
    And then change your markup to something like:
    <img src="{thPhoto}"
    onMouseOver="SetTitleByRowNumber('{ds_RowNumber}');"
    onMouseOut="SetTitleByRowNumber(dschapters.getCurrentRowNumber());"
    />

  • _y_p_w - you out there? (re: DVD and kernel panics)

    Hey, y_pw,
    Sorry for the public positing, but Apple's forums don't seem to give the option to send a message directly to someone.
    Are you still kernel panic free on your MacBook with DVDs? I'm just curious, because you're the only report I have that doesn't seem to have the problem. Tonight I got a chance to try my RAM in a friend's 2.2 SR MacBook and after some work got it down to about 1.2GB of free RAM and sure enough got it to kernel panic on me.
    After my logic board was replaced I went back to the Apple store and demonstrated that my MacBook still kernel paniced. The genius started running some X11 stuff and got a full system hang. Mouse still moved, but otherwise unresponsive. After reboot, log seemed to indicate hang due to graphics. I researched the issue a bit and found similar reports of some folks getting kernel panics with a flavor of Unix or linux also caused by the graphics driver with identical log entries as my system hang from X11.
    It all seems to point to a driver issue, so I'm trying to figure out how you seem invulnerable.
    Thanks!

    Well - I tried doing what I could to max out memory use. I've got a 2x2GB memory kit from OCZ. Right now Activity Monitor reports 1.15GB free, about 808 MB wired, 1.71 GB active, and about 325 MB inactive. I've got three web browsers active (each with CSTV's GameTracker loaded), as well as assorted Java and Flash ads on each browser. I'm running a high-def MPEG clip on VLC, about 60 photos loaded in Graphic Converter, and have the Office 2008 versions of Word, Excel, and PowerPoint open. iTunes is also continuously playing.
    I'm also playing my Toy Story DVD using DVD Player version 5.0.1. I don't know, but I can't get it to crash. Some of the applications are ridiculously slow (VLC and DVD Player are dropping frames) and the fan is cranking at 6200 RPM. Still - everything is up even though I realize I've probably approached this machine's practical limits. Actually VLC just quit - probably because of all the dropped frames.
    I don't know why, but the machine remains up and running. As I quite applications, everything seems to be approaching normal. I'm still using Safari and DVD Player still has Toy Story up.

  • Sports Sports - Zeb, you out there ?

    A question to Zeb or anyone else who might have the answer to this.
    Here's the deal - I want to be able to do a pip live of a timer.
    The event starts and the competitor trips the little laser on the course - I want to know what I need to interface with that signal and generate a timer on screen. Start, stop and hold the time til I cut to the next competitor.
    Shoot the clock ? - yes I know, I have in the past put a camera on the led readout and done a pip in the mixer - when I've felt bold. It's clumsy - it works but it's not the way to go and fraught with potential danger.

    Thanks Tom and Zeb -
    yes the timer does go to the 100th of a sec and
    always starts at zero, so it goes up - it's even more
    complicated at times (which is when I choose NOT to
    do it) because the events are outside and typically
    sunlight comes into play and ALSO they frequently
    adjust the angle of the freak'n thing so that the
    grandstand crowd can see it better - sheesh
    not knowing how extensive your setup that you're using or what sort of equipment, you may want to try one of these little doohickeys http://www.tvone.com/1ttbc.shtml when that scoreboard is in the sun, use the TBC and slam that black level into the stone age while raising your video level a bit as well. another thing that will help is to completely desaturate that signal. if this is a live event, don't worry about the black or white level as the switcher most likely has a built in proc and white clipper to take care of any levels out of legality. if you're getting this package ready for broadcast in post, just throw a luma clamp on clock signal. feel free to email me with any other concerns.
    here's another little prehistoric method story that saw lots of airtime. i use to work on a show that darn near everyone around the world has seen a time or two. three online suites, one symphony suite, two xpri suites and 8 media composer suites as well as an army of editors and assistants as well as tape room folks to tend to the 75 plus tape machines of all sorts and flavors. one day i was walking through tape and i saw an assistant friend of mine with a pdx10 shooting the worst ikegami monitor in tape. dumbfounded, i watched and it was a piece that one of the online suites had just layed out beta and now this guy was shooting this horrible monitor on mini dv. not only that he was utilizing the nauseating shakey cam method with mindless yet purposeful zooms. i asked what the heck and he was "degrading the video" so it could be cut into the finished piece; it was "a look."
    so, rather than waste time rendering and processing for a look, print to vhs and then reshoot your worst tv showing the vhs. it'll be art and you'll be a creative genius!!

  • IThanks all you out there. I do budget (NYC DOE school); can only use Explorer to PROCESS on mygalaxy.nycenet.edu. PLEASE HELP. (popups unblocked)

    The NYC DOE has set it up so can only use Explorer for budget portal (myGalaxy) & purchasing (FAMIS) https://dfoforms.nycenet.edu/FamisPortal/Login.aspx . I'm a Mac lover but can only get older version of IE no longer supported. Is there EITHER; 1) a way to set it so the above can be accessed from Mozilla; or 2) (& maybe for Mac help) a way to get IE for a Mac? Thanks for all you folks do. (SIDE NOTE: I tried Chrome-some features I liked but it "took over" my whole computer too much so I just use Firefox (+ IE for school work).

    You can try using an extension to pretend to the website that you are using IE ([https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/user-agent-switcher/ https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/user-agent-switcher/] may help), but there are no guarantees, as the website may use ActiveX (which is an IE only format).

    that was mean but yes a\i am sorry i multiposted b/c i thought this was more competitive for your expert opinions and advice . i realixe now that i was wrong and so i appologize. My ugency was only expressed so that if u had nothing else to do and thought that the person u were helping wasn't that interested and was buizy then it was su[posed to tell u that ur initial thought/assumption was wrong and that i would do anything u asked to get the aid u voluntarily provide so i thought it would be obvious that i was sorry because im not stupid enough to upset volunteers beccause they aren't the most dedicated when angry... well most of the time there not. So I am very sory and will do anything with in my power to help u help me ...Tahnks again for any help given.

    Hello to everyone out there: o)
    I have itunes 11 .. installed 1 day before, now my playlists do not agree in the presentation!
    itues keeps crashing! "Solution is sought.
    Receive message when you found solution. Itunes connect"??
    There do not appear in itunes all devices
    Windows 7
    sorry for my english!

    Hey, I have had my intunes soley shut down my computer numerous times, for the past month or so. I realize now it is only within my itunes, but it may not only be itunes. My desktop and a lot of cashed info have been cleared now, as a result of a ton of restarts by completely shutting the power most likely.
    I have been too lazy to back up my music because it messes stuff up, and goes so slow it crashes. it will probably work better if I dont even touch itunes and just transfer small parts of my library at a time, not all 120+ gb!
    I think a my computer is
               a fried
               b my files are terribly corrupted
               c or my itunes is compromised
    either way, i will back up my music, but what do you think the chances are my music is the culprate, and by backing it up I will have the same problem in the future?
    i've been thinking re-installing itunes would be best
    let me know....thanks

  • My phone will ring but when you answer there is no sound, no sound when ringing out either??

    my phone will ring but when you answer there is no sound, no sound when ringing out either??

    Hey dannibananny,
    Thanks for the question. I understand you are experiencing issues with the receiver on your iPhone 4. The following resource may help to resolve your issue:
    iPhone: Receiver and call audio quality issues
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts5196
    Follow these steps to resolve the issue:
    1. Increase the volume during the call.
    2. Make sure nothing is blocking the receiver. If you're using a protective case or display film, remove it and try again.
    3. Make sure nothing is plugged into the headphone jack or the dock connector.
    4. Check the receiver opening to see if it is clogged with debris. If necessary, clean it with a clean, small, dry, soft-bristled brush.
    5. Try another location with better signal. If the audio issue happens only when on a call, it could be due to the location.
    6. If the iPhone is paired with a Bluetooth headset or a car kit, try turning off Bluetooth on your device. Learn more about troubleshooting Bluetooth connections.
    7. Restart the iPhone.
    8. Make sure your device is up to date.
    9. If the issue is not resolved after restoring the iPhone software, contact Apple Support.
    Thanks,
    Matt M.

  • Hi there how are you guys out there of this forum? I got a question for y'a

    Hi there how are you guys out there of this forum? I got a question for y’all
    I wanted to know how I could record different folders using iTunes
    Cause when recorded 2000 thongs on the DVD
    There were 2000 songs to go through
    So I really wanted to have had folders and then the music recorded inside them
    So I could get right to where I wanted real quickly
    Could anyone please teach me how to do that real quickly?
    Can we do it with iTunes?
    I know we can do it with Nero.

    1) Go to file, select new playlist. Creat the playlaist.
    2) Download your music into iTunes.
    NOTE: CHECK 'Recently Added' before you download your music.
    If the select boxes has a check in them, turn it off by
    holding down the 'ctrl' key and selecting one of the
    checked boxes. This shold turn off all the checks.
    It would be better to clear 'Resently Add' of all
    previous downloads, but I don't know how to do that
    yet.
    3) under 'PLAYLIST' on the right, select 'Recently Add'.
    all of your song should show there with a check in the selection
    box.
    4)Hold the shift key and select the frist (selete records name),
    then the last recorded tune. All of the recordings shouls light
    up blue.
    5) While holding the 'shift' key, drag one of the records to your new
    playlist. All of the blue highlighted song will transfer to the new
    playlist.

  • Are there viruses out there than can infect your Mac without you knowing anything. The virus is so stealth that it doesn't give any symptoms.

    I have reason to believe my job is syping on me and i would like to know if there are viruses out there that can infect your Mac without you knowing anything. I believe there is one called "Finfisher".

    FinFisher is an extremely high-priced spyware tool marketed to governments and law enforcement agencies. It's very unlikely that your employer would be able to obtain a copy.
    Further, at this time, there is no known malware capable of infecting an up-to-date Mac running Mac OS X 10.6.8 or newer. Of course, physical access changes the rules. If your employer has had unsupervised physical access to your machine, they could have done anything.
    If they have had that access, and you truly believe that they have done that, there's only one way to clean your Mac up: erase everything and start over from scratch. See:
    How to reinstall Mac OS X from scratch

  • Att: Abelhinha  Re: Advice needed from you Professionals out there

    Hi again!
    Thanks for your replies yesterday.
    I went through your code, and done some reading on interfaces and stuff, and understand what your code is doing.
    I am going to explain, based on my understanding, what my code should do, and would greatly appreciate it if you will let me know if i am right or not!
    Here goes!=========================================================================
    -I will create a thread which will check the database and see if there are data to be
    put in the table.
    -If there are:
    --Check if the displayThread(which displays and updates the table) is running?
    ---If it is, then do nothing
    ---if not, then start the displayThread.
    -If there are not, then stop the displayThread.
    ===================================================================================
    Is this correct?
    Hope to hear from you soon.
    Regards

    Sorry, I haven't had any time during the weekend to take a look here.
    I'll try to answer you questions below:
    Hi again!
    I'm actually not sure if i need the listener at all,
    or rather for the first part of my problem!
    I think i only need the 1st listener, and the
    onConditionMet() method. Why?
    Well, because, if the condition is met, would also
    mean that there is data to be displayed.
    That certainly seems reasonable. And you should not forget, it's your application, so in the end it will be you who decides what works best for you. You could try a trial and error approach to see which solution fits best your problem.
    The problem now is that i have to still check if the
    Window which supposed to be displayed, with the table
    with the above data in, is active or not?
    At the start of the program, it will not be active, so
    i will create a new class for this window. However,
    afterwards i will have to check if it is visible, and
    update the values in the table, or if the
    onConditionMet is false, then to stop/close the
    window!I may be incorrect, because it's been a very long time since I used any type of GUI, but if you want to update your window, you will have to keep a reference to it somewhere.
