Nope. http://support.apple.com/en-ca/HT204144
Even that limited list in the Apple support article is incorrect. It says any of those can AirDrop with "a Mac with OS X Yosemite". That is wrong. You are the one that is correct about the Mac support, not Apple.
Ahh, yes. I was going by this, http://www.apple.com/osx/how-to-upgrade/, but I didn't see the Lightning connector.

What are the advantages to using BlazeDS or Granite?

We have decided to use Flex3 to upgrade our UI. We have heard
good things about using Granite Data Services, but it requires jdk5
or higher, and the same for BlazeDS.
We are currently using Websphere 6.0 and are discussing our
environment options: replace Websphere with JBoss 4.2 (Sun jdk6),
upgrade to Websphere 6.1 (IBM jdk5), or keep the current Websphere
6.0 (IBM jdk4). The concerns are upgrade cost, and time to develop
and qa any changes to the environment.
We would like to get some feedback on pros and cons of using
Flex with these three environments. If we stay with jdk4, will we
spend nn% more time writing code that could have been done out of
the box with Granite? Are there improvements with memory, speed,
etc. using Flex with a later version of the jdk? Will development
time be shorter with a later version of the jdk? What are the
advantages and disadvantages of using Flex with WebSphere versus
JBoss?
Thanks for your input!

BBM and PIN messages are messages sent from one BlackBerry to another. The message is composed by the sender and goes through RIM's secure server before being delivered to the recipient. They are only available to BlackBerry users.
The thing I like about them is how you can see if they've been received by the recipient. Once the message reaches the recipient's phone, you'll notice a small 'D' at the start of your message. This means it's been delivered. When the recipient opens the message, that 'D' will switch to an 'R', for 'read'. So now you know that it's actually been received by the recipient.
One more great thing about these messages is that there is no limit to length. As you're probably aware, most carriers limit text messages to 160 characters; not so with these messages, they can be much longer.
BBM and PIN messages are the same type of message, but with PIN messages you're limited to just that one contact receiving it. With BBM, you can have many contacts in on a chat or you can broadcast a message to many contacts at once.
I hope that explains things for you.

FM7.1 to FM10 : What are the advantages?

Hello,
I have to use FrameMaker on Solaris, in a networked environment.
Currently I am using 7.1 and want to move to 10.
7.1 already has serious issues with importing pdf files.(http://forums.adobe.com/thread/891661?tstart=30)
You see I need to give some good reasons to my boss so as to convince him!
So 1st I want to know if there is a stable 10 ver. that works on Solaris.
2nd-ly it would be excellent if someone can say very briefly, what are the advantages/problems in ver 10 over 7.1 for Solaris environment.
Particularly looking out answers from the user "Error7103 "!
Thanks in advance,
DP

FrameMaker 8 supports Unicode too and is faster and more stable than FrameMaker 10.
Another question that has to be considered is:
SoLarry?
Do you want to make any investments in the former Sun platforms now owned by Leisure Suit Larry Ellison?
If you are running Frame native on Solaris, you are running on SPARC workstations. Sun discontinued those over a year prior to the Oracle Assimilation. Since then, even the Solaris x86 workstations are gone. Oracle is out of the desktop biz, except for thin clients. If a seriously nasty security exploit appears for SparcStations, ORCL may not patch it promptly. As your hardware ages and fails, you may find yourself getting parts from eBay.
I suspect that the bottom line for this inquiry is that it's not likely to be a an FM7 to FM8 upgrade on Solaris, but a total platform migration to Windows. The label on that can reads: Worms: species, quantity and condition unknown.

So what are the advantages with Intel?

What are the advantages/disadvantages with these new Intel processors? Sheesh, I just bought a new laptop and now its outdated lol. Looks like I will try to seel this sucker, and buy the new ones when everything seems to stop updating at Apple...

Basic Advantages... Faster speeds, lower heat. This makes any portable computer very happy.
Basic Disadvantages... software compatibility problems? Native PowerPC applications now run in a sort of emulation mode. Users may need to migrate to software which runs natively on Intel Macs, or has Universal Binaries available. Could be an additional cost to the user.
and buy the new ones when everything seems to stop updating at Apple...
Stops updating?! If you wait for that, you'll never make a purchase. Technology changes very quickly, and it's nearly impossible to have the latest model for any decent length of time before it is updated.
Keep in mind... when machines get updated, that does NOT mean the previous model is obsolete.
I'm sure your current computer is still just as good as the day you bought it. No one is forcing you to upgrade.
If your machine still suits your needs, then stay with it. I'm sure I'll get another 2-3 years of solid happy use from my G4 Powerbook.

What are the advantages of compressor and it it even necessary

what are the advantages of compressor and it it even necessary?

Necessary for some and not for others – probably a large majority – who can by with the presets avalaible in FCX.
The users who need Compressor are those who want to control the parameters of the encodes to get the best possible trade-off between file size and quality. Or those who want to do things like standards conversions, complex frame speed changes, better re-scaling capabilities, de-interlacing, re-interlacing, output formats beyond which are available in FCX, chapter markers for DVD and Blu-Ray authoring, batch conversions for multiple purposes through droplets, access to clusters for faster rendering.

What are the advantage of using a passive monitoring technique ?

What are the advantage of using a passive monitoring technique

Hi Plawansai,
I saw your question that is still unanswered.
I believe an advantage of using a passive monitoring technique is that it won't interfer with live traffic, as it does not inject traffic into the network or modify the traffic that is already on the network.
One drawback anyway, is that post-processing time can take a large amount of time with passive monitoring!
A combination of the two monitoring methods seems to be the route to go.

What are the advantages of varying write speeds and burn speeds?

What are the advantages of varying write speeds and burn speeds?

The slower the speed, the fewer burn errors (or, in other words, you'll burn fewer "coasters"). I've always tried to burn at a slower speed, i.e. 2x - 4x. I'd rather wait a few minutes more and I've never had any burn errors.

What are the advantages of Tomcat 6.x in comparison to Tomcat 5.5?

Hi,
What are the advantages of Tomcat 6.x in comparison to Tomcat 5.5, in terms of performance, scalability, development and deployment.
Is there any particular reason for the changed directory structure in Tomcat 6.x, other than making it simplified.
In case this is not the right place for this question, please direct me to the right forum.
Thanks

What are the benefits from upgrading from Acrobat 9 Pro Extended to Acrobat11 Pro?

What are the benefits from upgrading from Acrobat 9 Pro Extended to Acrobat11 Pro?

Acrobat is a program used by a wide variety of users for a even wider number of purposes. So if we simply gave you a feature list, that wouldn't be very helpful.
Tell us how you use Acrobat, and what you do with it, and we can suggest improvements that were made in Acrobat X and XI Pro.

I just purchased an extreme. I have an express. The sales guy recommended setting up a hot spot with the express and use the extreme as a base station. What does he mean and how do I do this? What are the advantages?

I just purchased an extreme. I have an express. The sales guy recommended setting up a hot spot with the express and use the extreme as a base station. What does he mean and how do I do this? What are the advantages? How do I set this up?????

I think he means to set up the main extreme as the main router or "main base station", and then use the express to "extend" the network.
You can look up the manual for your express here for more details:
http://support.apple.com/manuals/
Extend the range of your network by adding AirPort Express to your existing AirPortExtreme or AirPort Express wireless network (this is called a Wireless DistributionSystem, or WDS). "
Extending the Range of an Existing AirPort Extreme or
AirPort Express Network
You can extend the range of an existing AirPort Extreme or AirPort Express wirelessnetwork by setting it up in a WDS. Wireless computers can connect to the network andshare the Internet connection, share files, and play network games. If you connect yourAirPort Express to your home stereo, computers on your wireless network can useAirTunes to play music on the stereo from iTunes. If you connect a USB printer to yourAirPort Express, all of the computers on the network can print to it.
n Open the AirPort Setup Assistant on a Macintosh, or the AirPort Express Assistant on acomputer using Windows XP. Follow the onscreen instructions to extend the range ofyour AirPort Extreme or AirPort Express network.
Note: Extending the range of a network using WDS may reduce overall networkperformance.

Mobile hotspots---what are the advantages? better reception?

What are the advantages of getting a mobile hotspot---such as the Verizon Jetpack 4G LTE Mobile Hotspot MiFi 4620L---over simply using the hotspot feature of a tablet (such as the Samsung Galaxy 7.7" or a Motorola Xyboard 8.2") or smartphone (such as the Samsung Stratosphere)?
More specifically, is the reception better? For example, in an area of marginal data signal strength, would the mobile hotspot be more likely (as a sort of specialized device) to get a usable signal than would a mobile-hotspot-enabled tablet or smartphone?

Mobile Hotspot devices like the MiFi products are likely to be more configurable than the hotspot features you are provided with by your smart phone/tablet.
Probabally the biggest difference is that a MiFi can support more devices than your smart device. Another example would be purchasing a larger battery for a MiFi. Running a hotspot feature on your phone will drain your phone battery quicker. Haveing a MiFi may extend your battery life and connection sessions simply because the connected devices and mifi do not rely on each other for power. As AZ mentioned, performance will boil down to the hardware/radios that have been installed. More powerful equiptment will always perform better.
In reality they both do the same thing, provide you and others a connection to the internet that you can bring where ever you go.

What are the advantages..

Hi friends,
      can you please tell me <b>what are the advantages of using MVC?</b> because <b>i can use ABAP Objects without using MVC.</b>
Thanks in advance,
Regards,
Kannan.

Hi Kanna,
        For Dynamically componentised you need to use controller.In the main page you partition for what you want to present dynamically and then call controller as a response to the user.What the action you have take in case of Page flow logic(Event Handler) need to be placed in controller.
Using the MVC design pattern has the following advantages:
·        Structuring BSP applications is simplified, since the view is cleanly separated from the controller and the model. This not only facilitates changing BSP applications, but also considerably improves their maintenance.
·        You have the option of generating program-driven layout. The HTML/XML output is therefore created by program code instead of a page with scripting.
·        Navigation using the <bsp:goto> element and call using the <bsp:call> element. The advantage of using <bsp:goto> navigation over redirect is that there is no additional network traffic. Furthermore, you remain in the same work process, which can have advantages for creating objects and memory space. The call using <bsp:call> element is more variable than adding them using INCLUDEdirective, since it is triggered at runtime.
With the call option using <bsp:call>, you can also distribute the user interface into components.
·        Optimized performance due to fewer redirects.
·        Intuitive and east-to-use interface for application development.
Main advantage of MVC is that you can keep these(Model View ,Controller) separately.If you need to change in logic you do not have to worry about presentation(View).

Albert

What are the advantage of using Oracle Database when compare to SQL SERVER

Hi all
Please tell anyone about
what are the advantage of using Oracle Database when compare to SQL SERVER
Thanks in advance

Hi,
There are various differences between the two.
1. SQL Server is only Windows, but Oracle runs on almost all Platforms.
2. You can have multiple databases in SQL Server, but Oracle provides you only one database per instance.Given that the very term 'database' has s different meaning in the two products, this "difference" is absolutely meaningless.
3. SQL Server provides T-SQL for writing programs, whereas Oracle provides PL/SQLWhich means what? Both products have a procedural programming language. They named them differently, and the languages are not interchangeable. Means nothing in comparing the features/strengths/weaknesses/suitability to purpose.
4. Backup types in both are the same. (Except Oracle provides an additional backup called Logical Backup.)You make that sound like "Logical Backup" is something more than it is. It is nothing more than an export of the data and metadata. Many experts don't even consider it a backup. I'm sure SQL Server provides the same functionality though they probably call it by some other name.
5. Both provide High Availability.Well, I guess they both have a suite of features they refer to as "High Availability". But what does that really mean? The devil is in the details. Remember, the two products don't even agree on what constitutes a "database".
6. Both come in various distributions.???
>
If you are going for an Implementation, you can try SQL Server Express Edition and Oracle XE which are free to use.
Then you can choose whichever is comfortable for your needs.
Thanks.
