How tough are they

Considering an iPhone but i want to know how tough are they as most of my phones do end looking a little shall we say battered.
For example my iPod is completely covered in scratches all over the display and the back.

I had mine for like two days, was holding it in my hand, the next second it was on the floor. I picked it up and saw that it fell right on the cornner putting a dent in it and that was all. Soo mad, had just bought the thing and then I went and dropped it but...oh well...So far it has been great. The silver rim around the front, it has a bit of just little were and tear from my pocket. I do Landscape Maintenance so I get dirt and everything else in there you know so. I'll see how it goes and update.

I deleted an app by mistake. when I tried to restore my phone from my icloud backup it wasn't there. I need an older backup. How long are they kept?? Thank you

I delted an app by mistake. when i tried to restore my phone from icloud I need an older backup. How long are they kept?? I'd like to get this app and it's contents back.
thanks

Apple states that it keeps your last 3 iCloud backups, which would only go back a few days if you back up daily. Also, apps are not stored in the backup, only your app data is. The backup simply notes which apps were on your phone when it was backed up, then downloads them from the App store when you restore the backup. If the app is no longer available in the App store, it will not be restored to the phone when you restore the backup.

Do you have hindi fonts for InDesign CS4 and if so how much are they?

Do you have hindi fonts for InDesign CS4 and if so how much are they?

Adobe does offer a few Unicode fonts that support Hindi I'd expect that you'd be asking for Devanagari fonts, though. Have you ever done any Hindi typesetting? I mean, when we typeset English we don't do it in "English fonts" but in "Latin-script fonts."
There are two main classes of Devanagari fonts - the more common, older fonts where someone took a Latin-script font, erased the characters, and replaced them with Devanagari glyphs, versus contemporary Unicode fonts. The first class are wonky, hard to use, and quite common. If you're in-country you will find lots of ways to buy those kinds of fonts. You also can use them in InDesign without needing any scripts or plugins to turn on the World-Ready Composer. I find Unicode fonts to be much easier to use, to automatically compose according to proper rules regarding behavior of glyphs - but to use them in CS4, you'd need something like World Tools or IndicPlus. I'm a World Tools user myself but if you're going to be doing only Hindi work in CS4, I'd suggest that you look at IndicPlus first.
In short - it's deeper than it looks. If you want to tell us more about what you're trying to do, we might be able to give you better advice.

HT1430 my IPad 2 has gone off, I have tried all the usual things, it is 3 years old, is it possible the battery has worn out, and if so how expensive are they to replace

My apple 2 appears to have died ,is ir possible the battery is dead, and how expensive are they to replace?

I'm adding more information:
in Finder, my iMovie folders are all visible and accessible. When I click on a clip from iMovie Events folder, Quicktime opens and plays the clip. ALL my video is not missing - it just isn't showing up in the Event Library!
This happened all of a sudden, while I was working on iMovie project (on both computers).
All my Projects are intact, and play when I open them.

SCCM 2012 and .PCK files - how exactly are they used?

Ok, no one, not even Microsoft engineers can seem to provide a clear and definitive answer on this topic, everyone's understanding of the .PCK file with relation to SCCM 2012 is clear as mud.
I understand what .PCK files are...in the SCCM 2007 world, and how they work, all that jazz, what I don't understand is how/when/why they would be used by SCCM 2012...it seems that sccm 2012 would only need these .pck files during a reassignment of a shared
DP in a migration scenario...even that surmise is sketchy since I've watched very closely the DP content conversion process and at
no time did the server access the .PCK files to populate the single instance store.
I am going to do some more testing on my own, my ultimate goal is to permanent delete the contents (not the folder itself) of the SMSPKG folder, essentially all the .PCK and .DL$ files to save space on my server.
If any soul out there knows..not guesses...the purpose of the .PCK file in 2012, let me know please, don't just copy/paste other people's posts as an answer, explain in clear terms each step of the process that 2012 would utilize a .PCK, or if the answer
really is that 2012 does not use .PCK files at all, let me know.
I have a single primary site with 16 secondary sites in my SCCM 2007 environment, I'm migrating to a single primary with 16 distribution points...so even if .PCK's are used to populate secondary sites, I should not need them since I won't have any secondary
sites once all of my DP's are migrated...yeah?
Thanks!
Terry

Thanks for the reply Torsten, that would make sense if my primary site had any .pck files at all (my sccm 2012 site that is) only my DP's have .pck files. I have no child sites in my 2012 hierarchy unless DP's are child sites (I thought secondary sites are
child..) When my DP's require a package they get them from my primary site, not other DP's. I have no 'Pull' DP's setup.
If SCCM 2012 uses a 'single instance store', which contains 3 folders itself that seem to contain compressed versions of the package files, then there should be no need for another folder that also contains compressed files...just a thought.

The Walking Dead: How soon are they posted?

Hi - I'm super bummed that i have to leave for a business trip this Sunday when The Walking Dead comes back. How early are the new episodes posted in iTunes for download? Can you get it any time that day? or do you have to wait until after it has already aired on the east coast? I'd love to have it for the plane! Thanks!!

ahh - bummer, so basically i'm out of luck for the flight. I hope i can download it from Istanbul, Turkey. Sometimes when you travel overseas they say you can't download it. Worst case scenario is, I come home the following friday - i watch the episode - then i only have to wait 2 days for the next one. =) Thanks you guys.

Aperture Web galleries and own website integration - how flexible are they?

I've mainly been learning Aperture's photo management and adjustments and until today have ignored web albums and books.
Just had a play with making your own galleries for the web and I love the integration of captions. Was thinking I would have to rewrite all of these for my own website. At this stage does the Aperture webpages offer key word searching for website visitors? I'm guessing not but that would be a cool feature. I'm tired of waiting for google etc to work out searching jpeg embedded iptc data.
My main concern is how adaptable are the Aperture webpages to integration with one's existing website. The original concept of my own website was to add an image gallery with shopping cart facilities where people can click on an add to cart icon below each image. Would it be easy to integrate shopping cart facilities to the Aperture generated webpages?
I also wanted to have articles which use my images - I guess the webjournal could be used for that. Again, would it be possible to integrate a shopping cart into that as above?
One last dumb question - I exported a webgallery with one image just as an experiment and see it creates an index.html file. If I want to integrate this into my website (which already has an index file) do I just change the Aperture index file to something like imagegallery.html with an appropriate link on my own website. Or is it more complicated? And what about images I add later on and then export. Do they go to the same export folder and does changing the index file complicate this?
Thanks for any help,
Ross

i have posted a thread in the Aperture Assistant forum about this, and am looking for the same functionality.
yes you can use an external solution like SmugMug or Zenfolio, but to be able to have a synchronised gallery that clients can make selections, that update your library in a synchronised system would be second to none.

The Intel Mac Mini uses on-board graphics... how good are they?

I'm seriously considering getting an Intel Mac Mini and telling all my friends to get one, too. However, there's one problem - the graphics.
The whole reason I'd want an Intel Mac would be so that I could dual-boot into Windows Vista (when it comes out) in order to play the latest games.
How suitable are the on-board graphics for gaming? Would it be able to play Halo and Command & Conquer Generals well?
Basically, I want to know if it's the equivalent of a 64 MB graphics chip in speed, or if having on-board graphics makes it a bit slower. Does it have hardware acceleration? And is it suitable for smooth casual gaming at an average resolution?

I am very uneasy about finding integrated graphics in the new mini too.
When I first saw the new Mini website on Apple's website I was so excited "intel processor", "4 usb ports", "faster drives" but something was missing from the website; the "graphics" sub-category. I instantly wondering what was up with that, thinking right away obviously the graphics weren't good enough to brag about. I was right. On Apple's MacMini website, on the "Intel Core" sub-category page, bottom of the page, right side there's a weee comment on integrated graphics, "oh." was my only thought.
It's really disappointing to see integrated graphics in the new Mini. That AND the increase in price. The price of the Intel iMac dropped by $100 when it got introduced, but the Intel Mini's price goes up $100 upon introduction, further closing the price between the iMac and the Mini and making the iMac looking more and more attractice in terms of features-performance-price-value. I better run out and buy a Intel iMac before Apple removes the miniDVI-out port (which I'm predicting it will be removed in the next iMac revision)
Hopefully some Intel MacMini review tests in the coming weeks will reveal better-than-expected graphics performance.
I'm surprised nobody else has mentioned this but... doesn't anyone here see that Apple has given us a preview of what's to come by putting integrated graphics in the new Intel MacMini? -- Anyone? I'll tell you -- we're going to see the exact same integrated graphics in the upcoming Intel iBooks, that's what.

Refurbished iPod Minis. How good are they?

Hi there,
I wanted to get a Mini a while back, but by the time I got around to going to look for one, suprise, Apple had cancelled it. So I'm wondering, what are they refurbished iPod minis like? Are the cases new, are they scratched, what is replaced, what is not, general quality, that sort of stuff.
Also, I live in Canada, but looking at the exchange rate, I can save money if I buy from the Online US store, and I get more options on ipod minis. Is it possible for me to buy from the US? Or do I have to stick to the Canadian Store?
Thanks in advance

Um, I'm not exactly sure, but I'll tell you my experience.
My sister dropped hers one time, probably from a height of about 3 feet. It got a little chip on it (which Apple might actually consider accidental damage and will not cover when it fails, but that's a separate issue), but it still works fine.
If I was you, I would try not to drop it. If it hits right, it can break. I dropped a glass from 6 inches above a counter and it literally shattered into a thousand pieces.
I hope this helps!

Shortcuts within applications. How limited are they?

I'm looking for shortcuts within applications e.g. to navigate through toolbars. Do they exist?
I'm used to using the keyboard without a mouse. How can I get to insert bullet points into a Word document, for example, without having to mouse through menus. The same with Excel, how can I insert or delete rows, for example without stopping what I'm doing and picking up the mouse.
I know there are some shortcuts, but these seem to be really limited compared to the functions I'm used to being able able to access without changing tools for keyboard to mouse. I don't even have a mouse, just a trackpad. I haven't used a mouse for years, and I've learnt to shortcut nearly everywhere in Windows, just using the trackpad occasionally. Shortcuts are really much quicker and do not interrupt your workflow like using a mouse.
Another example would be using the alt key to jump to the file menus, or highlight the shortcut keys available on any given window or information dialogue.
Are Apple really behind in implementing this kind of convenience, or is there something I'm missing?
Thanks in advance

The only way I know to do what you describe, that can work in all applications, is to get a third-party macro-creating utility. I know of two that work on Mac computers. One (whose name I don't recall right now) is free of charge but hard to use, and not very powerful; it cannot override a shortcut put in the application by the software company, for example making the F1 key do something other than open a "Help" screen. The other is called QuicKeys. You can download it at no charge and use it for 30 days while you decide whether to buy it. After that, it becomes essentially useless unless you buy an activation key (for about $60 U.S.). I could barely work without it, because I—like you—use keyboard shortcuts to do all sorts of things (hundreds of times in a typical day).
I'm assuming that you have already tried System Preferences--> Keyboard & Mouse --> Keyboard Shortcuts tab, which can do some of the things you describe. It is part of the Mac operating system. It is a bit tricky to figure out, but can be helpful if you don't want to buy (and learn how to use) a third-party utility for this purpose.

Frameworks - How valuable are they

When I was looking at my course on Java EE, there was a mention of using "frameworks" like Struts or JSF and they mentioned others.
1. What is the value of using a framework for a web application?
2. If I was to use a framework, which one does Sun support/endorse/recommend?
3. A few people sombody list a few frameworks and why one would be better than the other?
Thanks in advance
--Baffy+

In theory a framework has value because it provides a standard way to solve problems that are common to many similar applications. That way the programmers don't need to know how to solve those standard problems, they can get on with their domain-specific work. And thus you can hire programmers with lower skill levels, because the domain-specific work is simpler than general web-application programming.
In practice it isn't necessarily like that. Often the frameworks are complicated because they try to solve many common problems, so you can't start programming until you learn the framework. Your low-skilled people may not be up to the task. And it may happen that the framework you chose didn't solve a particular web-application problem that you have, so now you need a skilled web-application programmer anyway.
As for #2 and #3, I don't work for Sun and I don't want to write a magazine article.

EP-480 Ear Plugs, How much are they real

In AUS$, how much they worth?

It appears it would be in your best interest to pay full retail for a new phone as that would be cheaper over the life of the phone than paying for the amount of data you use.
To answer your questions, I have my data limit set because that is the actual amount of data I need. I had unlimited data for several years before switching to the Share Everything plan. Not once did I ever come close to even using 1 GB of data. I didn't "need" to be under 1 GB of data, I just didn't use that much data. The same can be said for the other smartphone on my account at the time. That was 2 unlimited data plans at $30 each for a combined monthly data total of normally under 1 GB. I now have 4 smartphones on my plan and our data allowance is 4 GB($70/month vs $120/month if we had 4 separate data plans). We normally use between 1.9 GB/month and 2.2 GB/month.
This amount of data which we use will give us MUCH more than calling, texting and "occasionally googling the nearest Cheesecake Factory".
Of course, everyone's needs are different and it would obviously be much cheaper for you to pay full retail for an upgrade when/if you choose to do so.

Lightroom 5 and premier elements 12 how well are they integrated?

Trying to decide whether I should buy premier elements 12 or pro to go with my lightroom 5. Any advice would be appreciated.@

Ned,
Thanx so much for pointing me in that direction. It definately says, " and in 64-bit or 32-bit mode on Windows 7 and Windows 8 & 8.1;" which means it should be able to run in 64- mode but I'm not sure how to make that happen. I work for a software company and our software has two different versions that are installed. So do you know if I have the wrong version or do they have some kind of switch that I missed setting on installation?
Thanx
Cat

Someone dropped a friend's Mac Mini a few inches while it was not running, and today someone else slid it a few inches with a bang against a desk edge while it was running. I ran a disk verify and it's okay, but how tough are Mac Mini hard drives?

Am I being a little paranoid about hard drive failure like a 1980s relic, or are chances good that a year or so's been knocked off the life of this thing?
Thanks,
L
P.S. Wasn't me.

With platter-based hard drives, as long as they aren't powered up and spinning, drops have little-to-no impact. If it were dropped while the read/write heads were moving across the platters, that's when you might see a problem.
these machines use standard hard drives that you can by from any website or electronics store. they aren't tougher (or weaker) than any other, so you should apply the same amount of care that you would with any other system.

How tough are they
