How Much space will I need for developing apps

I will be purchasing a MacBook Air most likely the $1109 with 64GB and 4GB RAM, I was wondering is 64GB okay for developing apps and personal use. I use about 18GB on my PC and I'm thinking I'll only need about 20GB MAX more, so 38GB used in total. Is the remaining amount good for developing apps, excluding XCODE itself, just the coding/ files needed?
THANKS

If you need to run XP then since BootCamp no longer supports it, your only choice would be on of the virtual software packages to run Windows.

How much space will be allocated for Occurs 10

Hello,
Kindly clarify my below queries?
1) if occurs 0 takes minimum 8 kb space
then how much will occurs 10 will take .
i.e when to use occurs 0 ,occurs 10 ,occurs 100?
2) what is the maximum number of lines an internal table can contain ?
Regards,
Rachel

Hi,
<li>OCCURS <n>. The below information answers both questions.
This size does not belong to the data type of the internal table, and does not affect the type check. You can use the above addition to reserve memory space for <n> table lines when you declare the table object.
When this initial area is full, the system makes twice as much extra space available up to a limit of 8KB. Further memory areas of 12KB each are then allocated.
You can usually leave it to the system to work out the initial memory requirement. The first time you fill the table, little memory is used. The space occupied, depending on the line width, is 16 <= <n> <= 100.
It only makes sense to specify a concrete value of <n> if you can specify a precise number of table entries when you create the table and need to allocate exactly that amount of memory (exception: Appending table lines to ranked lists). This can be particularly important for deep-structured internal tables where the inner table only has a few entries (less than 5, for example).
To avoid excessive requests for memory, large values of <n> are treated as follows: The largest possible value of <n> is 8KB divided by the length of the line. If you specify a larger value of <n>, the system calculates a new value so that n times the line width is around 12KB

How much space do I need for back up when I upgrade?

Hi All,
I'm going to upgrade to 10.8 from 10.6.8.
I have never used time machine before, but am planning to do so now to back up before upgrading.
My disc is around 600GB in total.
If all goes fine, after a few days I plan to back up again with the new osx, continue from that point making regular back ups in 10.8.
Question: Do these new back ups in 10.8 start from scratch as its a new OS, or will Time Machine just add the changes to the first one I did, like it would normally do.
The reason I ask is that I'll have no need for the 10.6.8 back up once all is installed and working fine and backed up in 10.8. So if its a fully new back up, then I'd like to delete the inital one so I'm not using 500gb of space twice.
Thanks for your help.
Richard

If you perform an upgrade to Mountain Lion, Time Machine will carry on using the backup you started with Snow Leopard, so it will continue making incremental backups. Also, it will keep your Snow Leopard backups

Bootcamp How Much space do i need

HI guys going to put Vista or XP on with bootcamp, how much space should i dedicate for windows to be comfortable.
Tks guys

As much as you're comfortable with. By default Boot Camp creates a 32 GB partition. This is the largest partition you can have if you format it FAT. Larger partitions will require using NTFS. Since NTFS is read-only to OS X you may prefer using FAT to ease copying files to and from the OS X and Windows volumes.

How much RAM will I need?

Considering buying a Macbook Pro, but I wanted to ask around and find out approximatly how much RAM I would need so that I dont get a model thats too powerful or too weak for my usage. I was considering 4 Gbs but im not sure if thats enough.
What im mainly planning to do on the Macbook is:
internet browsing (chrome, safari etc)
Mail app
Word processing software like Microsoft word
Eclipse (java programming)
skype
utorrent
Say I have all these programs running at the same time, how much RAM will I need to have?

Oh also, I just remembered wanting to ask this, have you ever tried downloading an OS update for a macbook and apple wont let you because you have outdated technology? Like trying to download ios 7 on an iphone 3G for example.
I've had that exact problem - someone gave me what was, supposedly, an iPhone 4s but turned out to be a 3Gs. Couldn't update to iOS 7.x so it just sits on my desk right now.
And when I had my MacBook Pro (1,1 2006 model) I couldn't upgrade to Lion - was 'stuck with' Snow Leopard.
O'd technology that no longer plays nice with new OS's? Time to get a new machine.

HT4914 1. My music takes up 3.5GB og space on my iOS devices. How much space will it take up after I subscribe to iTunes Match? 2. Will it include podcasts?

1. My music takes up 3.5GB og space on my iOS devices. How much space will it take up after I subscribe to iTunes Match? 2. Will it include podcasts?

The fix was to completely remove all Apple Software following guides in previous posts.
Then download and re-install latest iTunes 64-bit, making sure to Run As Administrator.
This fixed it. Now the next thing seems to be that as I move from one device to another to close and restart iTunes between each one. Treat it gently. It seems to break easily and a lot.

I have apple care for my iPhone 5. My screen smashed. I was wondering how much it will cost me for them to fix it or replace it. Or is it covered under applecare

AppleCare Protection Plan does not cover physical damage and you will have to pay for an out of warranty replacement.
AppleCare+ also does not cover physical damage but does give you 2 incidents to use for a situation such as this which provides a further discount to a normal out of warranty replacement fee.

How much time will i take for the battery to drain, with white screen of death?

Yesterday I updated the software of my iPod touch (4gen), and today while using facebook I got the white screen of death. I tried to holding the sleep and home buttons but I didn't help. Then I tried to connect to iTunes but iTunes does not recognize my iPod. It seems that the only solution is to let the battery drain. My question is how much time will it take for the battery to drain (I charged it yesterday). Am I damaging my iPod in anyway?( I am worried because the back is a little hot). Should Ii try co cool it by placing it in front of a fan?

Yes it will show the low battery picture. Then I just connected it to my PC and restored it.
For the cold pack I used one of these gel-packs http://www.coldchaintech.com/products/gel-packs.php ( I had them at home).
I don't think using ice is a good idea here is why:
1. If you use an ice pack you should be careful to prevent water from entering your iPod.
2. Your iPod should not get colder than 32° F which is the minimum Operating temperature. And ice is colder than 32° F.

How much space it is occupying for each Material Master in MARA table.

Hi Gurus & Markus .
If one of the functional consultant creates a Material Master in MARA how much space it will occupy for each. Like we need to create 10000 material masters.
How can i access exactly to that table in terms of db growth.
>Rahul

use this command:
select blocks from dba_tables where table_name='MARA';
then add 8 entries. then same command:
select blocks from dba_tables where table_name='MARA';
check difference between the 2, you will get a small number, you will get the number of Kbytes used per record.

How much memory do I need for iPhone?

Before I purchase an iPhone 4s I would like to know how much memory I might need. I will have some songs though currently I use only about 2GB on old iPod. I will no doubt have some pictures and perhaps a video and, of course, some apps though I really don't know how many. I tentatively planned to buy 16GB. My daughter is shooting for 32GB. Suggestions and guidelines? Thanks

Hi, from what you have said above, the 16GB iPhone 4S seemsmore than enough space for a user with the outlined above, bearing in mind youdo not necessarily get 16GB, as there is the operating system and otherprogrammes that use memory, for example I have a 64GB iPhone 4S and it comeswith 57.42 GB or storage.
If you purchase a 16GB and you do seem to be running out ofspace, you can always back up your data to a computer and it can be deletedfrom your phone - meaning you have more space. If you are worried about havingthis problem 32GB will probably be the best option and will be more thanenough.
Hope this helps, any further questions feel free to ask, andI will try to answer them.

How much space no I need to make Carbon Copy Clone of my internal drive?

I am upgrading the RAM and HDD in my mid 2009 Macbook Pro. How much space on my external hard drive do I need if I want to make Carbon Copy Clone of my internal drive?
Current drive is 250 GB in capacity
I currently have limited space on in external HD

Hi Niel thanks for the quick reply,
My 250GB capacity drive is relatively full (at about 245GB). Given what you mentioned above, I assume I must need to have room for 20GB of surplus space for each backup I make?
And therefore, would I need 265GB (to backup the 245GB drive) for the first time I clone the drive?
Have I got that right?
Cheers

How much ram do i need for serious video editing?

early 2008 2X2.8 Quad Core Intel Xeon Mac Pro, with 8 GB RAM (8X1GB sticks), 2 @ 1.5 TB hard drives +. Use Final Cut Express for video editing. CS4 for typical daily workflow. How much RAM do i really need to make this a powerhouse video editor?

To make any 'good' recommendations it would be helpful to know what you are editing - DV, SD, HD? That is a big factor in determining specifications.
If you do more than one stream of HD, you will eventually want an external video drive solution from CalDigit, Dulce, Promax, G-RAID, or any of the others you see on the side. And it also depends on what 'flavor' of HD - I doubt your running 1920x1080 uncompressed 10-bit HD off of one drive. an external RAID array might seem like overkill. Generally, the advantages are increased speed (necessary for dealing with uncompressed, high-res footage) and redundancy so you don't lose everything if a single drive dies.
Get AJA System Test to test the speed of your logical drives so you can get an estimate of what you are looking at.
You really DON'T want your OS and programs on the same drive as your media files. It'll cause performance bottlenecks and all kinds of grief.
Those WD 10K 300-600GB drive is perfect for your OS, applications, and swap files. That's ALL that you want to have on it, and add one or even two faster drives as a RAID 0 pair for more speed and space. Get at least one 7200RPM drive for video/graphics/etc.
For your video storage:
The hard drives you mentioned are fine for standard definition video. However, if you want to edit high definition or otherwise have complex / advanced ideas for your projects, you'll need something with higher read rates than just those single drives. This gets pricey, so depending on what you're intending to do, may not be appropriate for you.
During video CAPTURE your hard disks need to be able to write at a speed meeting or exceeding that video data stream. If other programs use the same disk you are saving too, then you have and increased change of missed writes to the drive. That is why they suggest having a seperate set of disks for capture. Not a bad idea.
*Strip size*
should be => 128K, I would use 256K. More importaint is cluster size. The default is 8 K which is good for the operating system plus programs as over 50% of the files are =< than 8K. For large files (is dot VOB can be 1 gig) it is not the best. When you write a large file each clustter contains a pointer to the next cluster that is to be read. I used 32K, or 64 K (at work so not sure) cluster size for my disk containing Pitures and video. The size of the file allocation table is also reduced by using the larger cluster size.
Back in 2007, this is what was recommended:

If you need to convert HD to SD, then you want hardware like the AJA Kona LHi or Kona 3 and those require a Mac Pro. If you go that route, get the fastest Mac Pro you can afford, minimum 8GB RAM, ATI 4870 card.

How much space should I allocate for Windows?

I have decided to install Windows 7 onto my computer. My only use for the Windows partition would be for gaming, e.g. Battlefield , some 007 games, Wings of Prey, etc......
Otherwise, I don't think I will use Windows for much else.
I may use an External hard rive, but having some of the games on the internal hardrive could be helpful.
I'm Downloading a copy of Windows 7, 64-bit.
Thank you for your time

You should make the Windows partition at least 50GB for Windows. I don't know what programs or what data you will have. So add enough space for your programs, updates, patches, and data to 50GB and you will be safe. I have 200GB but 120GB may be enough for you.

How much space do I need to give Windows7?

Hello,
I want to get the middle of the line MacBook Pro with Retina Display and and I've seen "gaming" reviews of it. I saw that it can handle playing Battlefield3 and since that is my favorite game, I would like to play it.
So here,
Battlefield3 recommends using Windows7 64bit which requires 20GB but I still don't know how much the game itself will take up.
So my question is, how much GB of storage should I give Windows on Bootcamp?
Note: This is the only game I will be using.
I am going to use Steam
Game will only be used for online multiplayer.
Thank you in advance for your responses.

So my question is, how much GB of storage should I give Windows on Bootcamp?
How large a SSD are you going to have? I would think that you would be 'safe' with a 30-40GB partition. I use 60 GB or so (I'm running Parallels, NOT Boot Camp) for Windows and a boat load of applications. Most of my 'real' storage is either on my Mac or on Microsoft's SkyDrive.
Good luck,
Clinton
