Check out this link from Jeffrey Travis
http://www.jeffreytravis.com/lost/labperl.html
"LabPerl is a cross-platform API for letting LabVIEW and Perl communicate. It consists of some LabVIEW VIs and 2 Perl modules (.pm) files that allow Perl functions to call LabVIEW VIs and pass data, and viceversa. You should be somewhat familiar with Perl before trying to use LabPerl."
I do not know if it will do what you want as I never tried it, but it is worth a try.

  • I'm new to mac and was wondering if my imac came with a spreadsheet program?

    I'm new to mac and was wondering if my imac came with a spreadsheet program?

    No. It comes with iPhoto, iMovie, and GarageBand.
    You can purchase and install Office 2011 - Mactopia - or you can try the freeware suite, Libre Office, that is functionally similar to Office 2007 for Windows except it works on Lion/Mountain Lion.
    You may want to consider as well:
    These two suites are similar to Libre Office but not as current or as well-supported:
    NeoOffice
    Open Office
    And, then there is Apple's iWork suite:
    Pages - word processing and layout
    Keynote - presentation
    Numbers - spreadsheet
    Each can open and save Office compatible files. They may be purchased separately via the Mac App Store for $19.99 each.
    As for other software, any PPC-based software will not run in Lion or Mountain Lion because Rosetta is no longer part of OS X. You will need to upgrade to Intel versions of the software.
    (Access to the Mac App Store requires Snow Leopard 10.6.6 or higher and an Apple ID.)

  • I bought this MacBook Pro 15.4" 1.83 GHz MA463LL/A with 2gb of RAM for real cheap on eBay because I'm poor and can't afford a new MACBOOK PRO and was wondering what everyone thinks about these laptops and what can and should I upgrade when I get money?

    I bought this older MACBOOK PRO 15.4" 1.83 GHz with 2gb of RAM and Leopard 10.5 on eBay for real cheap because I don't have the money to buy a new one like I would like to  do, and it comes with a disk to upgrade the OS to 10.6 and I was wondering what all I can and should upgrade (short of the whole computer) as I have the money to do so? Or did I just get really hosed?

    You have the original Core Duo model. 2 GBs is the most RAM you can install, so the only thing you could upgrade would be the hard drive. Doing so is not a trivial task but you can find suitable hard drives and installation tutorials at OWC.
    Since yours is a Core Duo model you can upgrade OS X to Snow Leopard, but not to Lion which requires a Core 2 Duo or better.

  • I got a new desktop and was wondering if I could....

    I just got a new desktop computer and was wondering if I have to add everything all again or if I can transfer the one off of the laptop to my desktop and still have everything on itunes? Any help would be appreciated!

    Choose Consolidate Library from the Advanced menu or the Library section of the File menu in iTunes, find the iTunes library location from the iTunes preferences, and move the folder to the new computer using any method necessary, such as an external drive, optical disks, or a network connection.

  • HT201250 I use Time Machine to back up my entire computer with my external hard drive. I am getting a brand new iMac this month and was wondering what is the process of using this back up to restore my new computer exactly how my old computer was?

    I use Time Machine to back up my entire computer with my external hard drive. I am getting a brand new iMac this month and was wondering what is the process of using this back up to restore my new computer exactly how my old computer was? I want to make sure I will still have various important files on my new computer, like my songs in iTunes, my photos in iPhoto, etc, etc. Thanks so much in advance!

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    When you turn on the new iMac for the first time, Setup Assistant will ask you to restore a backup, so connect the external disk and follow steps to restore all your files to your new iMac. Your new Mac will have the same settings and programs as your old computer.
    In other cases, I would recommend to restore the whole backup without using Migration Assistant or Setup Assistant, but a Late 2012 iMac uses a special OS X build, so the OS X version that you're using on your old Mac won't work on the new one. For more information, see > http://pondini.org/OSX/Home.html

  • I am going to buy myself a MacBook Pro in the near future and was wondering if the new Retina Display model would be worth the extra cash. I will mostly be doing photo/video/music editing.

    I am going to buy myself a MacBook Pro in the near future and was wondering if the new Retina Display model would be worth the extra cash. I will mostly be doing photo/video/music editing.

    if you're not in a big rush - why not hold off until Adobe and Microsoft releases an update to support the Retina Screen.
    Don't get me wrong - the Macbook Retina is a good and videos look great - but when it comes to Photoshop, it's a little blurry and the fonts in Excel and Word is pretty blurry too.....I own one....
    In any event, if it's something you can live with - then by all means - go for it.....
    Otherwise - get the non Retina Macbook Pro - it's cheaper, and it's user upgradeable in both RAM and Hard Drive.
    Good luck.

  • I have two iTunes accounts and was wondering if i can merge them together. I've a new macbook pro and haven't plugged my iPhone in it yet in fear of losing my songs from the previous account.

    I have two iTunes accounts and was wondering if i can merge them together. I've a new macbook pro and haven't plugged my iPhone in it yet in fear of losing my songs from the previous account.

    Go to the Music section of your Library (very top-left corner) and see if your songs are there. The "Purchased" playlist may have been deleted or gotten corrupted, but if that happens it's not a big deal because your music should still be in your main Music Library.
    If your music is NOT in the Music section of your Library, then go to the iTunes Store homepage and find the Quick Links list on the right side. At the top of that list, click Purchased and you can redownload all of your previous content that you might have lost.

  • Am new to using a mac and was wondering

    Am new using a mac and was wondering is it normal that my macpro restarts more then once at the gray screen of an update?? HELP?

    Try the MacBOOK Pro forums / the Snow Leopard OS section about updates.
    And my guess is, No it is not normal.
    Updates go through a couple of phases to download, prepare, and then do install. Finally getting more like Windows which is a safer method.
    You might want to do a Safe Boot before and after the update is done (not on the first restart when applying)

  • I just purchased a macbook pro and was wondering about an install disk.  It seems to be missing some of the applications that should be on it from a fresh install.  I was wondering if I would have to purchase a new OS and do a fresh install?

    I just purchased a macbook pro and was wondering about an install disk.  It seems to be missing some of the applications that should be on it from a fresh install.  I was wondering if I would have to purchase a new OS and do a fresh install?

    Ahhh, well  you never mentioned that before. You need to contact your friend from whom you purchased the computer. He/She should have any and all install discs for any third-party software included as well as for OS X and the original pre-installed software.
    Apple will gladly sell you replacements for any discs that did come with the computer originally, but they will not do anything for you because you purchased the computer used. If it's in warranty still, then you can get any warranty covered things taken care of through AppleCare:
    Apple Store Customer Service at 1-800-676-2775 or visit online Help for more information.

  • Sorry, I didn't know where else to put this. My email was hacked so I had to make a new one and naturally I changed my iTunes account too. I had previously redeemed a $50 gift card on my own account and was wondering if there was any way in restoring it?

    Try contacting Apple through Express Lane (select your country, navigate to iCloud help and enter the serial number of one of your devices)

  • I have an ipod touch 4th generation and have just recently downloaded the new update. I was wondering why the videos that I had added in my playlist won't show up.

    I have an ipod touch 4th generation and have just recently downloaded the new update. I was wondering why the videos that I had added in my playlist won't show up. Is there anyway that I could get my videos to appear in my playlist? They are still in my ipod in the video section, but just won't appear in my playlist.

    iOS6 problems aplenty ....not sure if the link I inserted is working or not, but the issue is a lot more prevalent - the issue being that what shows up & plays in iTunes after the iOS6 update is not what shows up (& plays) on the device itself. This may go beyond just the iPod Touch as well.
    In my case I can see & play both audio & video files in my Playlist through iTunes, but can only see the Playlists on the iPod Touch with ALL of them being empty. Syncing numerous times no help. Contacting Apple Tech. Support no help - they suggested downloading my Purchases from the iTunes Store - waste of time, did not make a difference. It is clear Apple needs to release a fix to OS6.
    Another problem I noticed on the device is that the Shuffle option is hidden on the built-in Songs Playlist, having to swipe the screen down to see it - dumb dumb dumb.

  • HT4993 I have apple care and was wondering what I have to do to get a new phone  since I drop and cracked my screen on this phone? When I go into the store what do I have to bring with me?

    I have the AppleCare and was wondering what i have do to get a new phone since I drop and cracked the screen on this phone.  What do I have to bring the store when I go in?
    Thanks

    If you have AppleCare+, for the $49 filing fee, you can use one of your two allowed accidental damage claims.  You must turn in an intact iPhone to be eligible (it can, of course be damaged, but all the parts need to be there).
    Otherwise, nothing in Apple's warranty covers accidental damage.  The accidental damage claim is a special insurance rider only with AppleCare+, allowing two claims, with the associated fee each time.
    All you need is the broken phone - they will pull everything else they need off their system from the serial number and your info.

  • Recently Got a Mac Book and was wondering if there is any software that Apple recommends to import my music/pics/video from my Iphone onto my computer. I no longer have the previous compture and if I sync my Iphone I'll lose everything.

    Recently Got a Mac Book and was wondering if there is any software that Apple recommends to import my music/pics/video from my Iphone onto my computer. I no longer have the previous computer and if I sync my Iphone I'll lose everything.

    This is the iTunes for Windows forum...
    You should be able to:
    Backup the device to the new windows installation
    Transfer your purchases into a newly authorized library
    Recover any other media using third party tools as suggested in this post from forum regular Zevoneer
    Restore the device from the backup
    This process should switch the association of the device to the new library, preserving the data and settings in your apps.
    May also be prudent to attempt a backup to iCloud directly from the device before you start... Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup > iCloud Backup > On. It won't save any media but it would preserve the general account settings and documents in case anything goes wrong while you are trying to extract your other data.
    When you get it all fixed, make a backup! (Windows tip). For a Mac use Time Machine or Carbon Copy Cloner.

  • I just bought a 5g iPod touch and was wondering if there were any ihomes out or coming out soon that are compatible with this device? I know about the lightning adapters but read about their bad reviews and would like to avoid buying one for my ihome

    I just bought a 5g iPod touch and was wondering if there were any ihomes out or coming out soon that are compatible with this device. I know there are adapters and cables you can purchase to use with your existing ihome but read the poor reviews on them and was scared away. I use my ihome very regularly and need this accessory to work with my new iPod. If you have any information on this, please help!

    iHome already makes docks that support the Lightning connector:
