How do I properly use permission reset?

I, among many, am having trouble installing Logic Pro X. At first, it got hung up during the installation process. While the status bar was still blue and "flowing", the installation made no progress from time I went to sleep and woke up....and I was on wifi.
At the suggestion of someone way more Mac-savvy than myself, I downloaded permission reset from apple, and followed their instructions (dragging Logic contents folder into permissions window, then selecting "read" in 1st box, "write" in 2nd box, and "execute" in third box.) After that, when I click reset (as instructed), the boxes restore to the previous settings (box 1: read & write, box 2:read & write, etc)
I noticed I also have several options at this window as far as a "locked" check box as well as others, and user options (staff, wheel, admin, myself)
Does anyone have any idea what I'm talking about? lol
I'm really close to just erasing the program and going with something else, as this is really killing my creative flow. I've been wanting to record some demos for my band to learn for several days now, and I cant even install the software.
In summary, Logic ProX gets stuck during install. It doesnt "freeze", per-se, as I can still "read more about Logic" or whatever, and my staus bar remains blue and moving....just no progress. If anyone can help I would really appreciate it. I might even pay you!!

Greetings ... it depends what you want to use the Voice Separation tool for... your question is quite general but here are a few pointers: explore the menu around Score Styles. The Voice separation tool only seems to work if you have a polyphonic score style with different staves assigned to different midi channels. So if you were doing say a piano part you need to assign the treble to Channel 1 and bass to Channel 2. Then when you drag the Voice Sep Tool through a cluster of notes, those below will drop down onto the lower stave of the score.
If you say more precisely what you are doing.. I am sure others more expert than me in the Score Editor will chime in
good luck
PS As to the value of the notes: those you can check out more precisely in the Piano Roll ( or what was previously known in L7 as the Matrix). This is an essential tool for making a score as you can see exactly how long or short the notes actually are. Often the Score Editor does not give a completely accurate display in my experience

How do I properly use symlinks for SSD/HHD hybrid MBP?

So, I have OS X (10.8.4) on the 120 SSD in my MBP. There's also a 500GB HDD partitioned into "Machintosh HDD" (250GB; this partition is what I intend for the storage drive) and "Time Machine" (250GB; I'm backing up the boot drive, am not doing so for the storage drive. Any remarks about this?). I don't want to dump the whole home folder on the the HDD, but I can't get the symlink commands in terminal correct. This guide seems to have the right idea, but it's not working. Example. I open the SSD (/Users/anotherwalrus/) and the HDD and drag the Pictures folder from the home folder into /Volumes/Machintosh\ HDD/storagedrive/ (Note: "storagedrive" is a folder I created at the base of the HDD). I open terminal. In ~/Users/anotherwalrus/ typing "sudo rm -rf Pictures" deletes the folder. I see it happen. Then again in ~/User/anotherwalrus/ I type "ln -s /Volumes/Machintosh\ HDD/storagedrive/Pictures". Okay, now there's an alias file in the home folder in Finder on the SSD that when clicked takes me to the copied Pictures folder on the HDD. However, and here is the problem, Pictures no longer exists. I mean, going into Finder Preferences and resetting it to show Pictures doesn't work because once you leave the Preferences page: * A) It's not in the sidebar * B) Going back into Preferences shows that it's unchecked Also, when trying to download photos from the net, there's not option to download in to the Pictures folder. Isn't the whole point of symlinks to show that the folder is in the home folder like normal, just it doesn't actually live or store data on the drive? Right now I don't have a Pictures folder in /Users/drtobin/ with the other folders (Documents, Movies, Applications, etc.). There are all of the folders I haven't messed with yet, and a white page alias icon that goes to the HDD. I thought the beauty of the symlink method of a mixed drive was that you can still interface (put files in, etc.) with the folder that pretends to be in /Users/anoherwalrus/ but really is on the HDD. Are there commands that will accomplish this properly. Wat do?

I don't know that copying them from an external would be any different than doing it internally because they are physically seperated. I have tried many different configurations. It won't let me erase or format the SSD so that I can clone the Hybrid to it. Which is what I prefer to do but I haven't boot from the recovery or an external and tried doing it that way. But even then I have to boot from each seperately, what is holding me up is I've lost both product keys to office and adobe ms 6 due to the fact of not only having them so long and always upgrade using dmg's as well as upgrading os's so often. So those programs are only available on one computer. Which happens to be on a seperate internal disk. A slick unix script would be nice. I am just really tired of trial and error and would like to get back to using my stuff.

How do I properly use the HDR function in Photoshop CS4?

It appears that I must be doing something wrong when attempting to use the HDR capability in Photoshop CS4. I follow the tutorials. I go to File>Automate>Merge to HDR. Then I select the bracketed photos to merge. I have used RAW file combinations of "normal" with +1 and -1 exposures, and "normal" with +2 and -2 exposures. Inevitably the result comes out looking like the most overexposed shot...or even more washed out. Since CS4 normally works for me as intended, I feel that I must be doing something wrong with the HDR function. Can anyone offer any helpful suggestions? Thanks!

Don't feel bad. While I haven't seen just what you're describing, the Merge to HDR function seems, in my opinion, kind of a bust. I can't say I've seen any "magic" at all in the way it combines the exposures.
I've tried to use it several times and I just don't see results that make me feel it's worth using. I have in every case been able to make better images out of a single well-exposed raw file than with the Merge to HDR function and several bracketed exposures (even with CS5's Merge to HDR Pro).
If people offer suggestions here, I'll be trying them too.

How do I properly use imaqCentroid() ?

Hi,
Earlier, I used particle filtering and imaqCalcCoeff(IMAQ_CENTER_MASS_X, Y) to find the center of mass of a black circle printed on a white piece of paper.
Then I would like to try to calculate the center-position using the grayscale image, to achieve sub-pixel accuracy.
I have tried running imaqCentroid() on the image, with a mask surrounding the black circle (the ROI is set to a few pixels larger than the binary particle found at same position).
But the results from imaqCentroid() is much worse than when using blob/particle analysis. The center position is quite different, and there is much more jittering.
I suspect that I need to modify my grayscale image before running imaqCentroid(), but I am not sure which st
eps/functions to use.
Comments?
Thanks,
Torbjørn

Try a white circle on a black background. It will work better. Another option is to invert your current image.
The white pixels carry the most weight (255) when using IMAQ Centroid. The black pixels carry the least weight (0). Right now, you are calculating the centroid of the white strip around your circle. By inverting the image, you will calculate the centroid of the circle.
The best results for IMAQ Centroid are obtained with a white object on a black background. If the lighting is not even or the color/brightness is not even, you will get shifts in your centroid away from the actual center.
I think your results with blob analysis will be better and more consistant than IMAQ Centroid. Another option, if your blobs are all circles, is to us
e Find Circular Edge once you know their approximate location. This uses edge finding to very accurately determine the position of a circular object.

After IOS6 upgrade game centre says my nick name already in use. has reset some games back to beginning, how do i fix

I've had almost every issue you've had. Finally on Friday the screen blacked out. It was obviously still charged, since I could hear the message ring, but when I tried to light up the display it didn't light so I was unable to get to it unless I removed the battery. Then, as soon as the display timed out, I couldn't get it lit up again without removing battery. I had the same slow movements throughout the display as well as slow text messaging. Every issue you had other than the alarm clock (that always worked well).
I took it in yesterday and, after over an hour spent there with a 'professional', I still had no answers. He told me to come home and copy everything from my sd card to my computer, then re-format my card. Well, my phone didn't even recognize that I had an sd card installed!! Nor did my computer!
So then I got to experimenting...I removed the card and viola!!!!!! The phone worked GREAT! It's never worked so fast! I then installed my husbands sd card to see if it was my phone's card reader or my card. Turns out that the phone still worked great with his card installed and it did recognize his card in my phone. So, my conclusion is that I need a new card. I couldn't believe the difference in speed of everything! It's like a brand new phone!
As for the hard reset...I did that over the weekend, before I could get to a verizon store. It didn't work at all.
I'd say, do the same thing I did and see if that works. Can't hurt!!! Please keep me posted. I'd like to see what you find out
Good Luck!!!!

How do I get Apple to send a link I can use to reset my password to my rescue email address?

I don't know my password. I do know what my Apple ID and rescue email address are. How do I get Apple to send a link I can use to reset my password to my rescue email address?

Without the Apple ID you can't get a password reset email. The link I gave above can help you recover the Apple ID as well, though, via your security questions. If you don't know those either, then you may be out of luck, though you can try calling Apple Support and asking to speak with Account Security and see if they can help, though you're going to have to prove that you actually own that Apple ID and aren't just trying to get illegal access to someone else's account.

How do I properly archive or save projects so they could be used in the future

How do I properly archive or save projects so they could be used in the future, but yet delete or trash the events folder they came from, to clear hard drive space

Hi to all of you Seniors and one junior [i.e. the the OP who started this thread]. I feel that this thread is a very vital subject relevant to practical and economical 'creativity oriented videography'!!!
As a newcomer I always have tried to have a grasp over this matter and the insecurity of 'incomplete knowledge' has been a constant mental niggle.
May I tell you that I have been struggling to 'hear' what I am now 'hearing' in this present discussion for over the past 10 months and have not been able to!!!
I shout out a million cheers to all the participants, OP included, involved in this thread.
May I request that this discussion be not allowed to die down but be used as a guidepost for all folks, especially those whose primary work is videography? By the time the this thread comes to an end, every reader should be able to make an 'informed and learned' decision of how to economically and safely preserve his work.
Salty's observation regarding opting for SD looks attractive just because of the lack of a suitable [read economical] means of having your work in HD...but, if in the coming days, were there to be any pathbreaking discoveries in terms of data storage, and hugh capacity drives are available at 'throwaway prices' would we not for the rest of our lives regret having done our works in SD?
Appleman's foray into this common problem, as to how it should be tackled, needs to be greatly lauded. Tom Wolsky's precise observations which obviate the need to check out and painfully realize some of the errors in Appleman's hypothesis neccessitate that the laurels, as usual, be handed over to him.
Now having said what I felt after reading through this thread, I would like these clarifications:
1] what is meant by having a backup of 'currentevent.fcpevent.'? How do we go about it. Where are we to store it? After doing this 'backup' can the 'currentevent.fcpevent.' file be deleted from the event folder?
2] Some word of enlightenment regarding the meaning and usage of 'event metadata '...i.e. say after 3 years of having the 'projected related event data' in cold storage, were one have the need to put his project back again on to the timeline for further editing...what are the exact steps which one should take?

How do I properly zero out or erase the hard drives in my early 2009 Mac Pro 4,1 tower?

How do I properly zero out or erase the hard drives in my early 2009 Mac Pro 4,1 tower?
I assume there are already instructions on Apple.com someplace but haven't seen them yet… I have to one terabyte drives one the operating system the other is blank I want to start fresh I want to zero out both drives but I didn't want to make any mistakes
I know I can use disk utility to 0 Out Dr., #2 that means I will have to take out the operating system hard drive out of my 2008 Mac Pro and put it into my 2009 Mac Pro to use the disk utility to zero out drive one the OS drive in my 2009 Mac Pro am my correct
I just need a little bit a help I want to go slow so I don't make any mistakes with the sleds or with the erasing process which journaled to choose encrypted or not etc. etc.
Furthermore is there instructions on the site on how to change the hard drive into a different sled because the sleds and my 2009 are different than my 2008 any advice
Thank you

I'm doing this because my friend told me that zeroing out the drive can nap bad sectors and also later for some kind of diagnostics usage of the drive or something like that he wasn't really clear
My friend was really specific he said choose the option that writes zero's once over the drive that is plenty good enough I was inclined to use the maximum seven write ...I just want to make sure the drive has no bad sectors and that's it's it's zeroed out for possible future diagnostics usage or something that he said was usable later
he also advised me to run a test on it but I don't have the software you mentioned or the software that he has… So I may have to take the drives over to his house unless you have some kind of free software that's easy to use that you could suggest that will not only zero out the drive but test the drive completely
I am completely new to Mac I'm no dummy but at the same time I'm not super technically capable I mean I can surprise myself I'm pretty good but I need a good teacher… How expensive is this lifeguard software?
Thank you

HT4437 I want to develop a software with AirPaly service for business things. How can I get the permission from Apple?

I want to develop a software with AirPaly service for business things. How can I get the permission from Apple?
This one is used in Windows laptop, and I want it support AirPlay service, but Apple doesn't publish the AirPlay protocol.
Many thanks.

Create a developer account, then access he developers forums and see if you can find the information that way
The other option would be to simply contact Apple directly.

How do i properly erase an iphoto folder?

unfortunately (and ironically), in my paranoia to not lose any photos, i've imported similar photos several times into iphoto. i then used iphoto diet, but it does strange things sometimes - in my experience, it doesn't always remove the proper duplicate (but the thumbnail), etc. so i've resorted to manually sorting each of 15K (ouch!) photos to remove the correct duplicate. i do this by sorting through the photos for different years. i've started working on 2004, and wanted to start with a clean slate and erase all the photos, then only import the orinigals i want, but iphoto 'residually' shows the saved thumbnails (i think they're thumbnails b/c they are only about 16kb, and don't open to full size - i get the 'white screen' that others have mentioned). i entered the iphoto folder (i know - a no no, but didn't know how else to erase 2004 photos) and deleted the 2004 folder.
sorry for being so wordy - can you suggest a way to eliminate my 2004 photos in a way that would be iphoto-friendly ?
thanks for any suggestions.

There are several ways to erase photos, slideshows and albuns from iPhoto.
First of all, to make you more feel secure all you photos are actually in your iPhoto library- that means they have been copied to you pictures folder. Whatever you do with them, the originals are kept. I mean, if you have one photo in a certain album and if you erase it from that album, the original is kept in the Library and pictures folder. All iPhoto does is like an alias to the Library, so it is perfectly safe to erase an album or slideshow in iPhoto, since the real photos are in the Library, and the most real ones are still kept in the pictures folder on the finder.
..."how do i properly erase an iphoto folder?"- select it and press "delete" or on the "edit" menu--> "erase/delete/cut"... again... don't worry about the content of this folder/album, because they will remain either on the iPhoto Library and pictures folder on the Finder.
Sorry to be so confusing...
Hope I've been helpfull.
