How can I encrypt a particular directory and not Home?

I have a work iBook that I use for travel and I'd like to encrypt a particular directory instead of my whole Home directory. Can this be done? If so, how?
If I NEED to use File Vault on my home directory, does this slow down non-work things like making DVDs, working with Photoshop, playing games, etc?
What if I made another user, like Work, and used File Vault on that? I guess that would work, but could I access a file while I'm logged in as Home?
Thanks,
Tom

>Re: 1: So, basically what I'm doing is creating another partition...but an encrypted partition, right?
Not a partition, per se. While a disk image looks and acts like a partition in some respects (you can mount it at the desktop, copy files to/from it, etc.), it's actually just a file on disk, which means you can copy the disk image to another machine, open it up and get it's contents (password-protection notwithstanding, of course). Partitions cannot be moved from machine to machine (or from disk to disk)
Also, if you create the disk image as a sparse image, it only takes up the amount of space consumed by the files within it. This means that if you create a 1GB image but only copy 100MB of data into it, it'll take up 100MB of space on disk (plus a little overhead). Compare that to a partition that will take 1GB on disk, even when it's empty.

How can I block a particular program and not the whole channel?

I want to block a particular program. When I am trying to that, it blocks whole channel. How can I do that?
Second Q is: can I have two parental control pins to block programs?

Then there is no point to use it for me. Some channels require parental control for some programs, so this option should be available.Someone can argue that then "why don't you lock whole channel and unlock whenever you want to use it." I want to avoid locking-unlocking by locking specific programs.
Comcast has this option of locking specific program as well locking channel!

HT4098 how can i cancel my zoosk app and not be charge at all

how can i cancel my zoosk app and nt be chanrge at all?

If it's an auto-renewing subscription then there are instructions on that page that you posted from on how to manage and cancel them. If you've already paid then, from the app's description page in the store :
No cancellation of the current subscription is allowed during active subscription period.
So you can only stop the next payment happening

How can I show only text edits and not text formatting when using print comments summary?

Acrobat 9.3.0 for Mac.
Here is the scenario: I used the Compare command to see the changes between 2 PDFs. The resulting file some edits are inserts and some are deletions. I want to print a comments summary only showing the text edits. In the Compare Option pane, I select Text and deselect Images, Annotations, Formatting, Headers/Footers, and Backgrounds. Now on the screen I see inserts are highlighted in blue and deletions are marked with sort of a caret and vertical bar symbol. So all looks good at this point. However, when I show the Comments List, I see addtional comments that indicate "Replace - The following text attributes were changed: fill color." Those comments do not appear in the page view unless I check the Formatting check box to show them. With Formatting unchecked, I print a comments summary and all of the "Replace - Fill Color" comments" appear on the resulting comments summary.
I only want to show text edits, not text formatting changes. So questions are:
1. Why, when the Formatting checkbox is unchecked, do the text formatting comments still appear in the comments list when they do not appear on the page display.
2. How can I print only the text content edits and not show the text formatting changes when using Print Comments Summary.

Hi,
You can set ExecuteWithParams as default activity in the task flow then method activity to return total no of rows passing to Router activity if your method has value 0 then call Create insert operation else do directly to page.
Following idea could be your task flow
Execute With param (default) > SetCurrentRowWithKey > GetTotalNoOfRows (VOImpl Method)
|
v
Router
1. If pageFlowScope outcome is 0 then call CreateInsert > MyPage
2. if pageFlowScope outcome > 0 then MyPage
hope it helps,

How can i read every"number" value and not only the 1st?

in the vi only the first "number" value(from the data acquisition)is read in the small loop.how can i make every value to be read?every value must be compared with the "numeric" constant,and,if greater the led must turn on.afterwards,when a value which is less than the "numeric" is found the led must turn off.please answer or send mail to [email protected]

The more I look at your program, the less I understand it.
Why are you setting number = number in a case if SO2 = ""? number always equals number.
In your sequence frames 1 and 4, you have no control over which write (date or time) happens first. Just placing one function to the left of another doesn't make it happen first if your wiring doesn't create data dependency. Review the section on Data Dependency in chapter 5 of the LabView User's Manual.
It looks you're writing to and reading from the same file using Write File and Read Lines from File.vi. Why read back data you just wrote? You have the data on your diagram. If you want to convert it from string to numeric, use a Sring/Number Conversion function from the String palette.
On Read Lines from File.vi (which I'm not sure you even need), you should use a shift register for the start of read offset rather than a local variable for mark after read (chars.). With a shift register, you can initialize it to 0 when the VI starts. Using a local, if you restart the VI, it will try to startup from where you left off the last time, but you just opened the file for create or replace.
In your sequence frames 2 and 3, why do you wait for the number to be less than the numeric before writing a carriage return to the file? Also, LabView has a End of Line constant which adapts to the expected value for the operating system. That's generally more flexible than a Carriage Return.
It looks to me like you're overusing control refnums. You don't need to use a control refnum and a property node to set or read a control's value if you can wire directly to the control's terminal.
I really don't understand what you're doing with pause and variants. I may be missing the point, but it looks like you made this much more complicated than it needs to be. Why not keep it a boolean?
For your pause-path, you open the file but never close it. You can lose data that way. You also open it using open function 3, create new file. You'll get an error if the file already exists.
On a general note, your diagram would be easier to read if you were more selective in how you routed your wires: you have wires on top of wires, wires running under sub-VIs, wires running in the frame of a while loop, wires running under labels.
I think there's a temptation to overuse sequences. I don't think you need one here. As I mentioned in my earlier message, case structures and shift registers will be more useful to you.

How can I make a drawing stable and not disappear?

When I draw some shapes in a panel, if another window goes over the panel, then the drawing disappears and I have to draw it again.
How can I make the drawing stable?

Encephalopathic wrote:
Of course you've read the graphics tutorials, and you are doing all of your drawing in a paintComponent(Graphics g) method override, correct?Encephalopathic is correct. If you want the stuff you draw to persist, you should override paintComponent() and redraw everything there. Just because you've drawn something on a component once (say, a line or an Image) does not mean it'll be redrawn the next time the component needs to be painted. You have to re-draw your custom stuff every time a repaint event is sent to the component, and that means overriding paintComponent().
If your component will have lots of custom painting done to it (such as if you're making a MS Paint-style program), you might want to consider drawing to a BufferedImage, then in your component's paintComponent() override, just rendering the BufferedImage. Check the documentation for more details.

I just ordered an iPad 4 32gb from Amazon but sold by a store called iPadShop. In the customer reviews there were several reports of this store selling used and refurbished iPads as new. How can i verify mine is new and not used when it arrives.?

Ok, first time here, so forgive me if Im repeating the question. I just ordered a NEW iPad 4 32gb from Amazon, but is actually being sold by a seller called "iPadShop". Although this seller got a high approval rating of 4.9 there were several reports of customers receiving used and refurbished iPads but sold as new. Once I receive mine how can I verify it is new. Also, even the ones that were new were purchased by this seller and then resold, which shortened the life of the 1 year warranty offered by Apple..?

If you just ordered it, I suggest you cancel your order as soon as possible. If you can't contact Amazon, call your credit card company and cancel payment on that. Why go through worrying about the ipad you are paying for as new? If it's to save money, then that can be defeated if you get a used or refurbished ipad with a less than full one year warranty. You'll be dealing with the ipad shop's return policy which could mean that once you open it, it's yours, unlike when you buy from Apple you have a full 14 days to return it even if you've opened it.
I looked at Amazon and did not see a price difference. If cost led you to buy from Amazon, what are you saving?
I suggest you buy it directly from Apple. If cost is an issue, consider buying a refurbished ipad from the Apple online Refurbished store. I would not buy a refurbished anything from anywhere but the Apple online refurb store.
The ipad 4 32 gb is $499.00 refurbished - a savings of $100.00 vs. a new one. We bought two ipads last year and one as a gift this year and they have been great!
All ipads sold in the Apple refurb store come with new front and back covers, a brand new battery, a full one year warranty, and in case it matters, come in a new white Apple box like all ipads do. Earphones and charger are also included. You can also get the new Apple Care +, which insures up to three breakages (damaged glass, water damage, etc.) in two years.
Hope this helps.

How can i keep songs in iTunes and not on my iPod?

I would really love to know how I can still have certain songs in my iTunes, without it transfering them into my iPod. If anyone has any clue as to how this can be done please let me know!!

See: How to Transfer Music Between the Computer and iPod
And: Transfer music manually
The iPod offers three ways to transfer music from your computer. You can select one of the following update modes from the iPod Preferences menu in iTunes (Edit=>Preferences=>'iPod' tab):
1) Automatically update all songs and playlists. This is the default mode, in which your entire music library, including playlists, is automatically synced to your iPod. If the music library on your computer exceeds the iPod storage capacity, you are prompted to select a different update method.
2) Automatically update selected playlists only. With this option, iTunes automatically copies the playlists you have selected to the iPod when you connect it to the computer.
3) Manually manage songs and playlists. You can also choose to transfer music to the iPod manually. This allows you to drag and drop individual songs and playlists from iTunes to the iPod.
Manage the iPod either Manually or via Selected Playlists.
How to Create a Smart Playlist
Deleting Songs or Playlists from your iPod
Or you can keep automatic sync and use the checkmark to determine which songs to transfer to the iPod. Any songs not checked will not be transferred to the iPod if you select "Only Update Checked Songs" within your iPod preferences tab. Not the best method as the unchecked songs will not play within iTunes Playlists or the Library (unless directly selected).

How can I view resolution in DPI and not PPI?

Hi all,
Under Bridge>view content as list, I got a column of Resolution but the mesurement are ppi and not dpi and i need to see the dpi.
Anyone knows where can i set it?
thanks..
shlomit

Shlomit,
Strictly speaking, images do not have dpi (ever), only ppi. Images are made of pixels, not dots.
Dpi refers to prints.
However, in everyday use, the terms are loosely used interchangeably. They work out to exactly the same thing (same numbers), but ppi is the correct terminlogy.
See: http://www.scantips.com/basics01.html
DPI, PPI, SPI - What's in a name?
Printer ink dots and image pixels are very different concepts, but both use the term dpi in their own way (dots per inch).
Inkjet printer dpi ratings refer to printer ink dots (the four colors of ink), which is NOT AT ALL the same thing as image pixels. These are such different concepts that some people think we should reserve the term dpi for those inkjet ink dots, and reserve use of ppi only for image pixels. Not a bad plan, except that this view fails to recognize real world usage.
We may hear scanning resolution called spi (Samples Per Inch), and that is indeed what it is. We often hear image resolution called ppi (Pixels Per Inch), and that is indeed what it is. The spi and ppi terms are correct. But historical and common usage has always said dpi for image resolution, meaning pixels per inch, and fully interchangeable with ppi. Pixels are conceptually a kind of colored dot too, and resolution has always been called dpi, for years before we had inkjet printers. Dpi is just jargon perhaps, but it is a fact of life. Scanners and scanner ratings say dpi too, meaning pixels per inch (see dialog pictures here, here, here, and here). I habitually always say dpi myself, but I did try to switch to ppi in the book version.
We may use the term of our own preference, but we need to understand it both ways. Some photo editor programs have switched to saying ppi now, which has much to be said for it. But others have not switched, so insisting on conformity for others to only say ppi will necessarily encounter much frustration, because the real world simply isn't that way, and obviously is not ready to switch yet.
My point here is that we must understand it both ways, because we will see it both ways, often, in the real world.
It's easy, not a problem - the idea of printing digital images is always about pixels per inch, so when the context pertains to images instead of printers, all of these terms, spi, ppi, and dpi, are exactly the same equivalent concept - they all mean pixels per inch.
There is no problem understanding any use of dpi if you know the context. It always means the only thing it can possibly mean. If the context pertains to images or printing pixels, dpi means "pixels per inch". If the context pertains to inkjet printer ratings, dpi means "ink dots per inch". There is no other meaning possible. This should be clear and no big deal - the English language is full of multiple context definitions.

I want to switch to firefox from Explorer, but somethinbg called Imesh keeps coming up when i try to get to firefox. How can i make firfox my browser and not Imesh?

I have beeb using Explorer on my laptop that came with Vista home premiun. (unfortunately). Explorer keeps crashing. i want to switch my browser to Firefox, but when I try I keep getting something called "Imesh" that appears to be posing as Firefox.

From what I understand Imesh is P2P software used to download various things. (Like Limewire.) I would just uninstall Imesh. My favorite utility to uninstall stuff is ccleaner, it makes uninstalls quick and painless. You can download it at http://www.piriform.com/ they make great free ware.
Now that the Imesh is removed do you have Firefox installed? When you install Firefox it will ask you if you want to use it as the default browser.
I hope this helps, if you wish to continuing various downloads with out the typical "P2P" silly stuff check in to torrents.
Have a nice day.

PLEASE: How can I save my iphone texts and "notes" (not "the note") to my computer? I need them for reference and legal purposes. I have yet to find an app for this and iphone doesn't sync either one.

Greetings!
I am brand new to using a Support Community -- I'm more of a in-person show me learner but...huge snowstorm and I don't want to
to make an appointment at a Genius Bar, driving 15 miles, especially since I asked about this once before and no one there was able to
give me an "official" Apple answer . I do hope I am posting my question (and plea) for help properly.
LOL when I had my first lil' Mac Classic, over 20 years ago, my participation in the techno world was soooo much easier, simpler.
My current situation: I have soooo many texts on my iphone and I haven't deleted many because I need the information contained in them for
future reference and for legal purposes. I would really like to find a means and way to save them other than on the phone itself.
I've done searches for various apps yet I'm not finding what I think I would need. It appears Apple does not sync the texts between the iphone and
my MacBook Pro.
Also I often use Notes for quick journaling as well as copy and pasting from other apps, usually inspirational, that I know I am going to want
to read again (always with credit noted ) and these too are taking up space. If I could email myself I would but the apps I'm using don't offer that and each day there is a new commentary -- no way to go "back".
I am currently using OS 10.6.8 on my MacBook -- my disc drive doesn't work and upgrading has to be done at the Apple Store so I don't have iCloud yet.
My iphone 4 is running OS 6.0.1 -- no upgrade until I'm at a wifi connection -- most of the time I'm using my personal hotspot.
I'm a very busy self-employed Nana raising grandchildren and a great-grandchild. I don't have a lot of time and certainly not enough for copying and pasting every text as well as note and emailing it to myself. There has got to be a better, easier way, yes?
I'd be most appreciative of any and all assistance here. Oh, someone mentioned to me I ought to get a "stick" for downloading but were talking
in a language I'm still learning.
Thank you!
Melinda
