How dictation work in OS X ML?

I have my dictation set up in System Preferences. How do I use it? Are there only certain programs that allow this (such as Pages. Numbers) or can I use this even on line, such blogging, chats on Facebook? I also bought a Dragon Dictate for Mac, will this still be relavent. I would really like to use this, due to my VERY slow typing speed.
I know the basics of it for iPad but I am not sure about my MacBook Pro. Please help!!!

How TimesTen works

Hi,
I am new to TimesTen. I would like to know how Timesten works. I have created a cache group on table test and have loaded it with 2GB of data. Now if I issue a query from sql plus will it execute on the cache group or from the database?

TimesTen provides a full-blown relational database and you use it like any other RDBMS. Whatever approach you use to connect to a database, the data access interface and the tool's connection dictates what database you are connecting it to.
The cache group tables you created are TimesTen tables, so you use TimesTen SQL connection to access them. The equivalent SQL interactive tool is ttIsql.
SQLPlus is the interactive tool for the Oracle Database, not for TimesTen.

Request: Change how rentals work on iPad

I suggest that Apple changes how video rentals work on iPad.
First of all, I don't get why I can't start watching it before it's fully downloaded (as you can on Apple TV). It makes watching rentals on the iPad something you need to prepare hours in advance.
Secondly the video-watching experience and behavior is different on an iPad than on Apple TV. Sometimes 24h is simply not enough to finalize watching a movie. You're using your iPad in a much more fragmented and spontaneous way than your Apple TV, which is a much more dedicated couch experience.
Worst part though is that if a movie expires before you caught the last 20 minutes and you bite the bullet and re-rent it, you have to download it again and wait for 1-2 hours, although it's already on your iPad. (And you have to pay full price again of course).
I understand that this behavior is probably not only dictated by technical limitations as much as licensing rights, but it is one of these things that makes experience much less great.

Since Apple doesn't monitor these forums, making suggestions here might get us all to say "YES", it won't do anything for making changes to how rentals work.
Please go to:
http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipad.html
By the way, Apple TV was developed to be a TV viewing device first (along with other multi-media), and not as a computer. It is also always on a ethernet or WiFi connection.
In addition, the 24 hour period is NOT set by Apple, but by the licensor, whether it's NBC, CBS, Sony or whomever owns the intellectual property. They set the time period. If you have an issue with downloading, Apple almost always helps you out. If you just choose not to finish the movie in 24 hours, that's kind of your issue not Apple's. By the way, PS3 rentals through the Sony store work in the exact same manner.
I understand what you're saying, but I just think you're swimming upstream against licensing rights.

Why doesn't dictation work reliably?

I finally got dictation working on my laptop after some struggles to find how to turn it on but after one short test sentence the microphone no longer comes up after pressing the function key twice. Furthemore, my desktop Mac which also got loaded with Mountain Lion this week will not respond to the command. In both cases Sysyem Preferences shows the microphone as working. Is the new software defective or have I done something wrong?

Dictation will work when you double click the function (fn) button. Once you have finished speaking click the fn button once.
Dictation does require internet access to access Apple servers for voice recognition etc.

How to work with both desktop and Surface pro 3

Hello,
I have a desktop for my normal use of Adobe Creative Cloud for Photoshop and Lightroom. I have my lightroom catalog on a separate external drive. I just got Surface pro 3 to do Adobe on it. I am now confused on how to work on Surface and how to access my Lightroom catalog.
Thanks for your help.

Just install Lightroom on your Surface Pro, plug-in the external drive, and double-click the LR catalog file.

How to work with 360 video?

I am new to AE and am trying to work with a 360 equirectangular video I shot with a Freedom 360 and 6 go pros.
Are there any tutorials on how to work with 360 spherical videos? Do I need to download additional plugins?
Thank you,
Phil

Phil,
Of course, the image needs to be big for this, but the plugin you would use is CC Sphere.
Drop your movie into a composition and apply CC Sphere to the video.
Then set the Render option in the effect to "Inside".
Under Shading set Ambient to 100% and Diffuse to 0%.
Then scale inside the effect until the image fills the screen.
Then you'll be able to use the Rotate Y controls in CC Sphere to spin around inside your video!
You can also add Optics Compensation and Reverse the Lens Distortion to straighten out your image.
Let me know if you have any questions!

Hey Guys, from Germany. I want to connect my iMac 21" with my Tv just for fun. Does anyone know, how it works. With a Hdmi adapter?

Hey guys! I want to connect my Imac 21 " with my Tv just for fun. Does anyone know , how it works?

Selecting the correct adapter and cable depends on which year model iMac you have and what inputs the TV has?
Check the User's Guide that came with your iMac or your Spec's at > Apple - Support - Technical Specifications
to see if your iMac has a Mini-DVI or Mini DisplayPort and then select that adapter with the correct connection for the TV.
Example: if you have a 2010 or 2011 iMac and an HDMI ready TV, then you would want the > Moshi Mini DP to HDMI Adapter with Audio Support - Apple Store (U.S.)

I was looking at the "Find my iPhone" app and I have a doubt regarding how it works for the macbook. In order to detect the location, the macbook should remain signed into iCloud. What if the thief logs out of iCloud. Would we able to locate the macbook?

I was looking at the "Find my iPhone" app and I have a doubt regarding how it works for the macbook. In order to detect the location, the macbook should remain signed into iCloud. What if the person who has stolen my macbook logs out of iCloud.
It should work fine for iPhone/iPad because we can enable "Restrictions" to prevent the user from signing out of iCloud. Do we have simialr settings for the macbook?
Thanks,

If it's not on the device list, it indicates that someone has gone to Find My iPhone on icloud.com and manually deleted it from the device list (as explained here: http://help.apple.com/icloud/#mmfc0eeddd), and it has not gone back online since (which would cause it to reappear on the device list; Find My iPhone has been turned of in settings on the device; the iClolud account has been deleted from the device; or the entire devices has been erased and restored.
Unfortunately, there's no other way to track the phone other than through Find My iPhone. You could call your carrier and see if they would blackliste it so at least the theif couldn't use it.

I need to change my apple ID because I'm changing my email address. I'm worried that when I do, I'll no longer be able to use my first generation apple tv unless I change the apple ID there as well. Does anyone know how this works??

I have to change my apple ID because I'm changing my email address. (I have a Comcast address and am switching to U-verse) I'm worried that when I do, I'll no longer be able to use my first generation apple tv unless I change the apple ID there as well. I'm also trying to find out if changing my apple ID is going to interfere with getting my itunes content on my computer and my iphone. Does anyone know how this works??

My iTunes appleID is an old defunct e-mail address - it does not have to be functional.
Do what Winston says to ensure you keep getting correspondence related to that ID.

I no longer have access to my icloud email and don't know the answers to my security questions. Does anyone know how to work around this to reset my icloud ID without losing my info? I haven't backed up in a year because of this.

You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions. To do this, click here and pick a method; if that page doesn't list one for your country or you're unable to call, fill out and submit this form.

I pad 2 updated to iOS 6.1.3 and now wifi is greyed out. Apple support engineers say replace but my warranty exited 09/12. Funny how it worked perfectly fine before the update.

I just updated to6.1.3 and now my wifi button is greyed out. Apple support said it is a hardware issue. Funny how it worked just fine on the previous iOS. Now apple wants me to buy a replace not because my warranty expired 09/12. Seems to me like ios6.1.3 was an update to sell more products. Tried all suggested fixes with no success. With all the noted issues with ios6 there may be another class action lawsuit coming. Apple tech senior advisor unwilling to help. First advisor told me just buy a new I pad. Second advisor wants me to pay for a replacement. Can someone explain to me how an apple approved software upgrade that damaged my i pad is classified as my fault. I've seen some shady selling techniques but this one takes the cake in my book. Anyone have the contact information to higher up executives in apple for me to speak with about my issues?

Have you check the following?
Verify that airplane mode is off by tapping Settings > Airplane Mode.
Reset the network settings by tapping Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings. Note: This will reset all network settings, including Bluetooth pairing records, Wi-Fi passwords, VPN, and APN settings
Ensure that your device is using the latest software.
If your issue is still unresolved, perform a software restore in iTune

How IE works for flat file

Hi all:
As we all know that, when IE gets a idoc's service name from SLD, then use it with idoc's message type and Idoc type to do receiver determniation, what about flat file ? how can we know its Service name and interface name if there is only a flat file on FTP? how IE works for Flat file ?
Couldn't thank you more

Hi,
For any idoc scenarious, you would use business systems rather than business service which is stored in SLD. So the IE would fetch it from SLD at runtime.
For file based scenarious also, you can create business system as type third party and use the same.
Is that answer your question?
Regards
Krish

Better process for introducing new features and explaining how they work

There are all kinds of new features being added to the Creative Cloud app but knowing what they are and learning about how they work isn't the most user friendly process. The current process is read the release notes after updating to a new version. The release notes should hyperlink to the related features in the product help. It would be great if there was a "What's New" section for the Creative Cloud app itself with new releases which included an introduction to new features just like there is for the desktop products.

This is a poorly explained reason about why is so important having a loupe in Photoshop. I've not also, used the best example, but I will. This belongs to the ADDITIONAL FEATURES: Loupe/Magnificator View:. Also, I will try to make my english clrearer, but here it goes:
