Hey, sorry, but one more quick question... noise at startup

sorry but i'm a relatively new mac (and laptop) user, and I have been unable to find a way to stop the noise the computer makes (through the speakers, like the noise it should make) when I turn it on. This is true for both the windows and mac side of my computer. Whenever it is happening I try hitting F3 or F4 but that doesn't seem to work.
Thanks a lot for any assistance!

Here are two options you can try.

Sorry. One More OnyX Question!

Sorry. I just realized I had one more question pertaining to OnyX. When I'm on the Optimization page, it says to either "update" or "complete optimization" options for optimization. What do either of those options mean? I'm just a little scared to try any of those things if I don't know what they do.
Thanks,

Rodriguez,
If you value your data, you will sit down and understand what it means to backup your data. Lack of patience is no excuse. You'd have even more lack of patience with your machine when you lose it all. Keep at least two copies of everything at all times. Don't reformat your hard drive without making sure there are two external copies of your data. Methods of backing up vary by individual. If you are the kind who lacks patience, run a clone every night the weather is known to be good with Superduper. It has the least complicated interface. Use a couple external Firewire hard drives at least the size of the internal hard drive to make the clone. An iPod is not a backup, since software copying music from the iPod to the computer is unreliable.
Upgrade only when you need to, and are aware that everything you have works with the update before you do upgrade. And repair permissions before and after with Applications -> Utilities -> Disk Utility.
Upgrade and backup only when you have no peripherals attached other than Apple's own (i.e. keyboard, mouse). A display is not affected by updates or backups, as long as there is no USB or Firewire plugged into the display.

One more quick question

You said that I could install a Cloud subscription to CS6 on two computers. What happens if I replace one of the computers? Does the agreement transfer, or do I lose the use of CS6 on my new machine?

You can run Help --> Deactivate in any of the programs, then sign out of the application manager. Then you can install AAM on the new machine and sign in again.

Connecting to the internet + one more Macbook question

I've just noticed that I haven't updated my profile, but I am no longer using an eMac. That machine just died on me, so I've purchased my first Macbook. I've also moved into a new apartment, and cannot get connecting using the apartment's existing ethernet connection.
My girlfriend has a cable modem and uses an ethernet cable to connect her PC. Our compters are on the same table, so we share the ethernet cable. But when I plug it ino my Macbook, no dice. Can't reach the internet. Any clues? I don't know a lot about internet connections, but I have my network settings set for a DHCP connection, and I'm told that it's all set correctly and should work. Maybe my girlfriend's connection only allows for one computer in the apartment?
One more question: I don't like the color scheme on this new Macbook as much as I did my old eMac. On this one, the whites (for instance, the background of this page) seem "too white." So much so that it hurts my eyes. When I turn the brightness down, it makes the blues and grays look dull. But when I turn the brightness back up, the whites are blinding. Has anyone else noticed this?

If your Sky router is anything like my Netgear, the problem is the way you have to enter the WEP password on a Mac. IIRC, there are a couple of options for the password format, and you need to choose the right one. I think they were Hex and ASCII. My password has to be entered as 26 characters of Hex - that's how the passkey is displayed in the router when you enter the password there for the first time.
On a Windows machine, I just key that password in full. On my Macs, I have to tell it that I'm using Hex, not ASCII - there's a drop down box with all the various options somewhere that allows you to select the encryption type and the key format.
For some reason, OS X isn't clever enough to work out whether you are entering Hex or ASCII.
If you get really stuck, you can always disable WEP on the router - log in using a wired connection (usually you type 192.168.0.1 into Safari) and set wireless security to none. Check that your macbook can now connect wirelessly, then re-enable security, making a note of the new passkey.
Might be worth doing this anyway, and choosing a more secure setting.

Hehe one more speedfan question

Ok i realise that ive asked this before, but im sure that p2 diode is giving me bogus readings.
My p4 has the stock hs, with the shitty normal heat pad thingy and right this moment my cpu is at 30-31c (alledgedly) and my mboard at 30c (which i can believe).
Sorry to sound like a nagging old woman or something but i just cant believe my cpu is at 30c with stock hs.
Alternative settings give me 45c for cpu which seems right to me.
One more last thing what is the p2 diode?
Am i right in thinking p2 diode is built into the cpu and thermistor is part of the mboard?????????????

I was in the exact same boat as you when I originally fired up my comp...I wasn't too worried about the temp cause 45C with stock cooling sounded right...however, when I changed my hsf to the thermalright SP-94 with a vantec tornado 80mm, installed with artic silver 5, I was still getting 45C. So I re-installed the hsf to ensure I didn't do something totally crazy, fired up once more, and guess what temp I got with thermistor diode? that's right...45C. I then switched to PII diode and started getting MUCH more realistic temperatures. So believe what you like, but I'd stick with the PII diode readings if I were you...at least until a response from MSI is given.

One more ultrabeat question....

hello folks...
i have an idea which i want to try but have no clue how to get it done in ultrabeat...
so i load three samples in ultrabeat (with drag & drop) say 1.snare 2.hi-hat and 3.one more hi-hat
now is it possible to have one hi-hat in 1/8 resolution playing in the pattern and other in 1/16 resolution (at the same time) and is copied to logic when i drag the pattern of it. hope i am clear here with the question....
i am not able to do this because when i change the RESOLUTION in the lower options it changes resolution of every sample loaded (1-25)
waiting for an answer....

In short... No!
The resolution parameter affects the 'size' of each step for all sequences in a pattern.
Maybe you could program one of the parts in a second pattern set to the correct resolution, import that MIDI region, the merge the two regions.
Or maybe run 2 instances of Ultrabeat??

[solved] One more conky question (convert cpu temp from C to F)

Okay, one more and then conky is finished I want to convert my cpu temp from C to F because it's just easier to understand for me, I am an american ... I've tried various ways I've found on these forums, but none of them seem to work, here's my cpu temp conky script:
${execi 1200 echo $(($(cat /sys/bus/pci/drivers/k10temp/0000:00:18.3/temp1_input) / 1000)) C}
Last edited by Mr_ED-horsey (2011-07-21 01:26:16)

What's the output of
cat /sys/bus/pci/drivers/k10temp/0000:00:18.3/temp1_input
? It should read about 55 C.
I have no idea how the sensors work, I've never used them, but you can doublecheck the conversion using just about anything, even google: http://www.google.pl/search?q=55+c+in+f … =firefox-a

One more generics question

One more dumbshit generics question...
Is there a way to do this without the warnings or the @SuppressWarnings({"unchecked"})
   * Returns the index of the last occurrence of the specified element in this
   * list, or -1 if this list does not contain the element.
//@SuppressWarnings({"unchecked"})
public int lastIndexOf(Object object) {
    int i = 0;
    int last = -1;
    for(Node<E> node=this.head.next; node!=null; node=node.next) {
      if (node.item.equals((E) object)) {
        last = i;
      i++;
    return(last);
produces the warning
C:\Java\home\src\linkedlist\LinkedList.java:313: warning: [unchecked] unchecked cast
found   : java.lang.Object
required: E
      if (node.item.equals((E) object)) {
                               ^... remembering that List specifies +public int lastIndexOf(Object object);+ as taking a raw Object, not E element, as I would have expected.
Thanx all. Keith.
PS: Crossposted from the tail of http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jspa?messageID=10225418&#10225418
which nobody has answered, I presume because the thread is marked as "answered".

I'm not sure you understood or if I made myself clear. Or perhaps I'm missing a vital detail in your implementation.
I'm talking about the cast to E in this line:if (node.item.equals((E) object)) {Object.equals() takes a parameter of type Object. So the cast to E is superfluous. That cast is what's causing the warning. You remove the cast => no more warning => you can remove the SuppressWarnings annotation.
Unless your E's have an overloaded equals() that takes an argument of type E. In that case you'll have to live with it.

One more memory question

Hi again everybody,
I just realized I forgot to ask one more thing about memory. Does anyone know, using System.setProperty, what the command is to set the JVM to a specific size inside the program? I don't mean setting the memory size permanently, I mean setting it just for the run of the program. I'm trying to get my application not to depend on the command line so I can take it out of my IDE.
Thanks,
Jezzica85
Edited by: jezzica85 on Apr 10, 2008 8:31 PM

Yeah Kajbj I agree with you only from external side we can set the heap memory size.
As you told already it is impossible to set the heap memory size dynamically with in the program.
Suppose Task A has B,C,D tasks and we want to set different set different size of heap memory to these tasks
in this case lets have B,C and D as separate processes and invoke them from A with the heap memory sizes we wanted.
Its just an idea feel free it criticize it.
*If our tasks are as simple as the ones i have told this will be good otherwise it becomes complete mess.
Thanks

One more install question (sorry!)

I have FC Studio 2 on my computer. I just bought FC Studio 3 and want to install it. But it will "overwrite" FC Studio 2 ...
Is there any way to avoid this?

The best way is to install on a clean install of the OS -

Wonderful but one more question

Hello everybody I just restore my iPod touch on iTunes.
When I tried to install apps they do not install in order. Like like I install an app it in the middle
Of my apps in the spring instead of installing on the bottom this happen when I reseted
My home screen layout . Also the reason why I did this because every time I swipe through
My springboard my icons flashed black real fast and I would like to know why.
Thanks every one for trying to help me. Also I'm on ios7

It is typical tha when you restore an iPod the app layout on the Home screens will get messed up.
I do not understatd what you mean by "
every time I swipe through
My springboard my icons flashed black real fast"

Just installed my new Pioneer DVR-111D, but one more question

The silver gate doesnt go down all the way when it opens...it stays open mid way only because of the open tray, so its bumping up against the bottom of the tray.
Is this normal????

ICarus,
yes, from what you say, this is normal.
The back of the door is a specially shaped "bump" to force the door down no near horizontal. As the tray opens it should push the door down, only making contact where the "bump" meets the bottom of the tray.
If you have other contact, or things jamming, it could be a sign that the DVR is situated just slightly too high or too low in the bay.
Can you confirm that you have removed the strip from the front of the tray ? This is the strip that makes up the "door" while the drive is in its "internal" format.

Sorry but its another Raptor question..

Hi all.
Heres the deal. I currently have about 8GB of audio, about 5GB of pics and about 2GB of documents.
At the moment I use DVDs to back up the above documents, but since the amount I need to back up is growing so quickly, Its taking longer and longer to orgnise and back up. I usually take between 1 and 2GB of pics when I go on holiday and my MP3/AAC collection is growing quickly.
My question is this: Should I go for a Raptor 74GB hard disk and use that as my primary drive and the stock drive as a secondrey drive? or opt for an External hard drive like the Smartdisk crossfire?
If I choose the raptor, is it difficult to transfer everything from the stock disk to the raptor? Will I need any additional software?
Oh, and I should add. The disk on the IBook mentioned in my sig is full, so cant use that for back ups any more.
Thanks alot.

It seems from your writing that your needs is for storage space, not speed, so I don't think the Raptor offers you anything particularly useful in real use.
For less then the cost of a 74 GB Raptor (~$160 when not on sale), you can get a Maxtor MaxLine III 300 GB, with a 16 MB cache (~$130), that will provide over 4 times the amount of storage as the Raptor, and provide very close performance numbers to the Raptor.
If I were adding an internal I'd go with the MaxLine III for very good performance, and much higher storage capacity.
As for an external, those too are a good option for backup. I'm not familiar with the one you mentioned, so I'll leave it to others to provide suggestions about it.

I know this sounds repetative, but one more time.. HELP?

i know there have been dozens of posts about the loss of ones input device to import video after the upgrades of OSX and the the upgrades of FCP... i also rmember a site tha has all these questions answered... where is the sight.. or who do i chat with about getting my DV deck to get recognized by FCP at startup..
thank you

ASSUMING that you have FCP 5...
you HAVE to have this:
http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/video/fcprescue.html
It's a sweet little app for deleting, saving and restoring your preferences.
I am guessing that in the upgrade your prefs got tweaked or QT did some finkydinky, there was an old post that referenced FCE, but that may help you...
The workaround is to download Quicktime manually, after removing the "receipts" which indicate that it is loaded. Specifically, I was told to do the following:
1. Navigate to Library -> Receipts on your main drive (not from your personal folder).
2. Remove all files of the form QuickTime*.pkg, where "*" is a version number. E.g. QuickTime600.pkg, QuickTime650.pkg, Quicktime700.pkg and QuickTime701.pkg. This simply tells your system that those packages are not installed.
3. Go to http://www.apple.com/quicktime/downloads and click on the "download Quicktime" link. DO NOT USE THE AUTOMATIC UPDATE UTILITY. Download QuickTimeInstallerX.dmg. Double click this file (probably on your desktop) and then invoke the installer by double clicking QuickTime701.pkg.
4. After your computer reboots, you should be able to restart FCE and see your camera.
let me know...

Yet one more production question: search topics

This might be another pain in the rear question, but I am
looking for a way to globally replace text throughout all topics.
Does Robo have a way to search through ALL topics so that I
can replace text? (This isn't something right now that can be
handled via snippets or variables as the original text is not in a
variable or a snippet. We've decided to change some phrasing and I
am looking for keywords that I can highlight/find so I can reword
the text. I very well may be able to insert snippets or variables
during editing, but will want to locate all instances of a
particular word or phrase.)
I have about 50 - 60 separate topics in a project and I'd
like not to have to eye ball each topic in order to find the
string/phrase.
Thanks!

Hi there
RoboHelp does offer a utility called Multi-file find and
replace. But it's probably only reliable for single words. If you
want something fancier and more robust, consider BK ReplacEm or
FAR.
