How does Muse compare to Apple's iWeb?

I just heard about Muse.
How does Muse compare to Apple's iWeb?
Is it a similar type of user experience?
Is it more or less versitile?

I just migrated from iWeb to Muse.
I've run my very small but well-established business in iWeb for almost 5 years and I was so sad to see Apple cut off iWeb. It worked super-well for my needs.
I looked around and chose Muse because I could build what I wanted without being hemmed in by a template. In every other program I tried I either had to live life in a template or know how to code. I just wanted mine to be a simple straight-forward website that harmonized with my content. My followers don't need or want or like a lot of bells and whistles, they are interested in my content and in ease of navigating around.
I moved my iWeb site from mobileme to another server about 3 months ago and then two days ago began moving into my new Muse site.
In the last couple of days I have had about 600 or so of my followers find Muse and many have written to say they like my new site, that it loads fast for them and (as I suspected) they like that it is simple and easy to use.
Mind you, I have a TON of work to do before my move is complete, but so far it is all I hoped it would be. I wish it had a couple of features more (such as a way to collapse and store pages when I'm not working on them) but I'm hoping they'll come in the future.
Do I miss iWeb? Yes, because I knew how to run it so well and easily, but for my level of web participation Muse is a good replacement.
Hope this helps.

How does Muse compare to Dreamweaver

Hi Everyone,
I'm looking for an alternative to Dreamweaver as I know very little code and don't trust myself to be able to create a functional site.
I am a designer, however, so Adobe's Muse seems to answer all my problems.
Is it as good as it would appear?
Is it purely a design based version of Dreamweaver or does it have limitations that hold it back?

Muse is more for designers. Muse is a lot easier to use if you are not comfortable with code.
The trade off is that Muse writes the code for you so (like any program that does things for you) so you are limited to what the capabilities are.
- Muse easier to create sites but more difficult if you need something custom
- Dreamweaver more difficult to use but you have access to the code for customization
So it really comes down to what kind of sites you want to design.

Anybody use Word Perfect? How does 'Pages' compare?

For anyone who wants to cut to the quick, just read the question....the last paragraph.
I need some comfort. It's probably normal to get frustrated with a new Word Processing program like 'Pages' after only 2 days of using it so I'm willing to be patient, but I have a general question, which actually appears in the Title of this post.
I've used Word Perfect on my non-Mac computers for 20 years and although the program is without equal in it's sophistication and ease of use (IMO), I do believe it caused some big problems for other programs on my computer (incompatibility problems with other software). I've wanted an iMac for a long time just to get rid of all the problem I had with those other computers, thinking I'd be rid of WordPerfect, which I blamed for many of the problems. I wanted a fresh, clean start, so I sure don't want to mess up my 2 day-old iMac by loading up a word-processor like WordPerfect again....that'll just mess everything up again.
But I have mixed emotions. After my past experience with Word Perfect, it's just hard for me to believe that the WP people actually got rid of all their bugs, and wouldn't inadvertently stick them all into an Apple product. I'm paranoid, I know. I'm asking this question because word-processing is the most important thing to me in using a computer and I found WordPerfect to be perfect, as a word-processor, that is.
I'm certainly willing to give 'Pages' a fair try, and hope it works out for me. But, is there anyone here who uses WordPerfect on their Mac (and with which OS) and does it cause you any problems? Also, in your opinion how does it compare with 'Pages'?

I was an avid WP user (DOS, AtariST, and Mac versions) for years and I was a beta tester for the Atari and Mac versions. I was never all that impressed with the Windows versions. When the program was sold to Novel support and quality became uneven and after Novel sold it to Corel, well, let's let sleeping dogs lie, eh?
Pages isn't WP - it is a consumer word processor and desktop publishing program. Still it is quite powerful and easy to use...once you accept its conventions. That is a sticking point for a lot of people. With OS X, Apple has taken the toolbar and adapted it to its own purpose. Unlike some programs that attempt to put every command in toolbars, Apple prefers to target a smaller number and allow the user some ability to custom it. Apple has also adopted the idea of palettes - one palette actually. The inspector. In OS X the inspector is used to take commands that might be buried in the menu hierarchy and puts them out front. With Pages, like many OS X programs, getting to know the Inspector is key to using Pages.
As I said, Pages isn't WP or MS Word. That's good and bad. The good is that the program is cleaner and easier to learn. It also means that lots of features you might consider important are missing. You should have a demo version of iWork on your new iMac and you have 30 days to use it before you have to decide to keep it or ditch it.

How does iPhoto compare to Picassa which I have used a long time?

How does iPhoto compare? And is it simple to bring all to iPhoto in the same organization?
Thanks!

Very vague question... in what way? You obviously know the strngths of Picasa. The feature list of iPhoto is on the Apple Site.
Best advice I can give is to make a library and import 100 pics and explore. See what you like - or don't. It'll help you to ask pointed questions that will get you better quality answers (that this one )
As to migration... there is no path from Picasa and it will depend on what Picasa can export.

How does Remote work with Apple TV?

How does Remote work with Apple TV?
1. Does Remote, "Play" the music that resides on your iPod Touch>Apple TV>Home Speakers.
OR
Does Remote "Control" the music that resides on Apple TV HD>Home Speakers.
(If so... say you have a iPod Touch that only holds 8GB's but your music collection on your Apple TV exceeds that amount.
Will Remote still "Control" the larger music collection on Apple TV or your computer?)
2. Will iPod Wifi work on a patio outside a home to control Apple TV inside the home?
thank you in advance, Tom

Remote is a way to control iTunes on either your computer or Apple TV using a WiFi connection. See this article for complete instructions.

How does Mercalli compare with FCP X's Image Stabilizer?

Last night we were shown some videos which had been stabilised using Mercalli.
http://www.prodad.com/home/products/videostabilizing/300391667,l-us.xhtml
The steadiness was excellent but as we were not shown the original footage there was no way of judging the improvement.
Has anyone used this system and if so how does it compare with FCP X's stabiliser?

aside Luis' excellent reply:
* consider to upload your video to YouTube and set it there to 'hidden' or 'privat'. By eMail, share its URL. Many ISP have a max for eMail attachements, and video is huge by nature...
* poor-man's-Compressor is the free tool Mpeg Streamclip.
It offers in its various Options lots of settings, you usually would do in Compressor. Just share a Master from FCPX, open it in Streamclip and then 'export' it in any compressed form you like, e.g. reducing resolution, frame-rate, bit-rate. Less convenient than Compressor, which would allow to add your very own settings/'destinations' into FCPX... but cost-free.-

Java Gurus: How does Java compare to 4GLs?

I've been using Java for a year now. I love Java. As a 3GL, how does Java compare to a 4GL?
(I can't say I know a whole lot about fourth generation languages. The only 4GL that I'm a little familiar with is Clarion.)
What are your thoughts?

What is 3GLs and 4GLs? You mean Programming Language and Scripting Language?

How does Blogger compare to iWeb 09, and starting tips?

I've never had a blog site, but I would like to start one, with an 'About me', posts, and comment ability that I can handle. Some have recommended opening a free site with Blogger. Now that I have iWeb 09 (3.0.1, still unopened) and a MobileMe account, I'd like to ask:
1) How does iWeb compare to Blogger (or any other blogging software)
2) What should I know before starting a blog with iWeb?
Best regards, Isshi.

If you use one of the industrial strength blogging sites that have been suggested here you might be able to add it to an iWeb page using an HTML snippet and iFrame code as in this demo page: Embed One Site Within an iWeb Page.

HT1918 How does one organise the apple ID so that one uses the same email address to have an account on both the UL and Belgian itunes stores?

I have in the past created an Apple ID for use with the UK itunes store, because I want to read in English. If I sign in it seems that this ID will only allow me to purchase from the UK store. But I live in Belgium, so I can't download from the UK store. So I tried to create an apple ID for the Belgian itunes store. But I want to use the same email address as I used for the first apple ID I made (because I'm fed up of having to remember which email address I used for which account). When I tried this, I just get a message saying that the email address is already in use for another account (which I know, because it's me who made that account). Does anyone have a workaround for this?
cheers
Andrew

I have tried again using the same password. and it still doesn't work.
I'm presuming you went ahead and set up a new Apple ID, yes? Using the same password in more than one Apple ID has worked for me in the past, but I haven't tried it in a while so the tightened security may have changed that. You could use the same password but add "-UK" and "-BE", or something like that, to make it easier to remember.
I understand what you mean about losing the ability to deal with UK purchased stuff, but this is becoming so inconvenient that I do want to delete that UK apple ID account. I have looked everywhere I can think of on the apple website (apple id, itunes, support etc) and I can't find a link/eplanation/contact point that deals with deleting apple ID and itune store accounts. Surely this must be possible?
It's possible, but Apple is very reluctant to do it, and it's not something a user can do on their own. It would be better to just stop using the UK account rather than trying to get it deleted. Just remove your payment information and there should be little reason to have the account deleted. If you really want to try, though, you'll need to send a message to iTunes support specifying that you want the account cancelled.
On a completely different matter, I have bought my son an ipod touch. But since he is younger than 13 years old, how does one go about using the itunes store to get music onto his ipod touch?
You would need to buy tracks for him; he's too young to have his own iTunes Store account. To control what gets synched to his iPod, this should help:

Oracle Development Survey on Data Warehouses: How Does Yours Compare?

At the start of most data warehouse projects, or even during a project, I am sure you as customers try to find answers to the following questions to help you plan and manage your environments:
* Where can I find trend and comparison information to help me plan for future growth of my data warehouse?
* How many cpu's do other customers use per terabyte?
* How many partitions are typically used in large tables? How many indexes?
* How much should I allocate for memory for buffer cache?
* How does my warehouse compare to others of similar and larger scale?
The data warehouse development team, here at Oracle, would like to help provide answers to these questions. However, to do this we need your help. If you have an existing data warehouse environment, we would like to obtain more technical information about your environment(s) by running a simple measurement script and returning the output files to us, here at Oracle. This will allow our developers to provide comprehensive documents that explain best practices and get a better understanding of which features our customers use the most. This will also allow you as Customers, to benchmark your environments compared to other customers environments.
From a Company perspective we are also interested to get feedback on features we have added to the database, are these features used, how are they used etc. For example we are keen to understand:
* Which initialization parameters are most frequently used at what values?
* How many Oracle data warehouses run on RAC? on single nodes?
* Is there a trend one-way or the other, especially as data volumes increase?
* Does this change with newer releases of the database?
All results from these scripts will be held confidential. No customers will be mentioned by name; only summaries and trends will be reported (e.g., X percent of tables are partitioned and Y percent are indexed in data warehouses that are Z terabytes and larger in size. or X percent of Oracle9i and Y percent of Oracle10g data warehouses surveyed run RAC). Results will be written up as a summarized report. Every participating customer will receive a copy of the report.
Terabyte and larger DW are the primary interest, but information on any data warehouse environment is useful. We would like to have as many customers as possible submit results, ideally by the end of this week. However, this will be an on going process so regular feedback after this week is extremely useful.
To help our developers and product management team please download and run the DW measurement script kit from OTN which is available from the following link:
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/bi/db/10g/dw_survey_0206.html
Please return the script outputs using the link shown on the above web page, see the FAQ section, or alternatively mail them directly to me: [email protected].

Hi Guys, just a quick question. when we have a primary key on 4 coloumns and we have, say 20 million rows and we want to add one extra row. How does oracle check whether the data on the primary key is unique to the record being added compared to the 20 million rows. Does it actually compare the record being added to all the rows present in the table?
Edited by: 969224 on May 10, 2013 8:14 AMNot the whole row, it compares the 4 columns in the INDEX against the 4 columns in the new row.

How does new Comparator() work?

I have this code segment in my program. It works fine, but I don't know how exactly it works.
Collections.binarySearch(vertexList, new Integer(vertexID),
new Comparator() {
public int compare(Object obj, Object key) {
PDGVertex vertex = (PDGVertex)obj;
Integer vertexID = (Integer)key;
if (vertex.id < vertexID.intValue())
return -1;
else if (vertex.id > vertexID.intValue())
return 1;
else
return 0;
I know that Comparator() has two methods, compare() and equals(). But in the code segment above, I only implemented one, compare(), in the new Comparator() body. Don't I have to implement both of the two methods?
To test it, I wrote the following test program.
interface TestInter {
void tt();
void jj();
class Test {
static TestInter testInter = new TestInter() {public void tt() {System.out.println("In tt");}};
public static void main(String args[]) {
testInter.tt();
When I compiled it, I saw the following error message:
Test.java:7: <anonymous Test$1> is not abstract and does not override abstract method jj() in TestInter
static TestInter testInter = new TestInter() {public void tt() {System.out.println("In tt");}};
^
1 error
Any thoughts? Thanks.

The compare method is for comparing two objects of a particular type--two Employees, two Orders, whatever. That's the Comparator's reason to live.
The equals method is just like it is on any other object---it's to compare this Comparator to another Comparator. I believe the docs say that it's always safe to leave it as the default Object implementation which is true only if the two references point to the same Comparator object.
If you do decide to override it, it's so that you can determine that two Comparators will return the same results. I suppose you might want to do this if you know that two different implementations will return the same results (maybe the implement the same rules, but one is optimized for certain kinds of data and the other for other kinds) and you want to avoid repeating a sort that's already been done. For what it's worth, I've never needed to override equals on a Comparator.

How does Macbook compare to ibook?

Hi--
I currently have an ibook G4 and love it; however, I am running out of memory (I have an 80GB HD but a lot of video files) and would like a second Mac anyway since my husband seems to take over my ibook every time I walk out of the room. And I am tempted by the promotion that ends today, to get a free ipod, since my 30GB video ipod is also out of space (I would upgrade to the 80GB video ipod and just pay the difference).
What I am wondering, for those of you who've had an ibook and a macbook, do you like the macbook as well, or better? Or does it have problems the ibook did not? I guess I'm a little nervous because I've read a lot of posts about macbook problems, especially related to vibrating or the fan running, and I'm just wondering if the macbook is as reliable and user-friendly as the ibook. I love my ibook because it is so quiet, doesn't usually get too hot if used for general word-processing and internet surfing, and I've never had any unreliability issues. It may be a moot point, since I can't buy a new ibook anyway, but I just need to hear some positive stories about the macbook, especially from those of you who've also had ibooks. Thanks!

I have a 12" ibook and a 1st generation Core Duo Macbook. I bought the Macbook because my partner needed a notebook and was happy to get my iBook. In hindsight I think I should have bought the Macbook Pro, despite the extra expense, as this would probably have been a better upgrade from the iBook. However, the current version of the Macbook is a far better spec'd computer...faster, more hard drive space, more Ram, and I think that the problems that some early Macbooks were prone too have been ironed out. Mine had the random shutdown problem, but Apple fixed that under warranty and it has been very reliable since.
Plus points of the Macbook for me are:
-I like the glossy screen of the macbook, definitely superior to the iBook for photos.
-The keyboard took a few hours to get used to but I think I type faster on it now.
-The iSight camera is a huge benefit if you do any videochat (Skype, iChat), it is so nice to have such a good onboard camera.
-It is much faster for iMovie...no crashes or video drop outs. Could be that the extra Ram helps here.
- my iBook has Panther so obviously having Tiger is an improvement.
- Magnetic power supply is nice
-came with bluetooth and wireless as standard...I love using it for wireless internet in hotspots.
Negative points would be:
_ A BIG one for me is that the optical drive on the Macbook is far less reliable and stable than the ibook. It rejects a lot of my cd's that the iBook takes no problem, scratches cd's, cd's get stuck frequently. I often have to load a cd onto the ibook, then copy the file to my Macbook, and I am forever having to try to eject stuck cd's. Some brands of blank cd's/dvd's won't work at all.
-Heat...there is no doubt, the Macbook gets very hot compared to the iBook. It is uncomfortable if you use it on your lap, and I do wonder whether eventually sone internal componant will just melt one day and kill the Macbook, but so far that hasn't happened so maybe I am worrying for nothing.
- I don't think the general build quality is as good, it just doesn't feel as solid. I treat mine very carefully. However, I have a friend who takes his everywhere in a rucksack and has not suffered any ill effects.
As I said, if I was buying again I definitely would have opted for the Macbook Pro as this would have been a really nice jump up, but the Macbook is amazing value and if you need another computer you will enjoy owning it.
Have you thought about a new iMac...do you need a notebook because if you don't the iMac would be a good choice too? Much bigger hard drive, better graphics card, bigger screen.
Enjoy what ever you end up with.
