I'm looking for Apple desktop P.C. as an upgrade from my Dell /windows XP. I need guidance.

I currently use a 6 yr. old Dell Vostro 200 (Windows XP). I want to upgrade to an Apple desktop PC. I need guidance to a product. Are any peripherals compatible (ie. screen, printer, Maxtor hard drive)?

Almost all peripherals are compatible. I'd recommend reading https://www.apple.com/support/macbasics/ and if you have an Apple Store in your general area stop buy and ask questions. You were not specific as to what screen, printer etc... that you want to use with the iMac and that is all important so you can verify they are compatible.

How to locate 'look for apple tv' command in iTunes

i am trying to connect first generation apple tv to mac mini.
following all instructions but apple tv does not appear in itunes devices list.
cannot find how to configure itunes for 'look for apple tv' command.

That depends on how you set it all up. If you chose the "connect to iTunes" option then you should be able to sync content to the hard drive on the Apple TV. If you chose the "add shared library" option then you can only stream to the Apple TV.

"Look for Apple TVs" is missing from iTunes10 prefs.

based on apple's kb http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1453 :
Choose iTunes > Preferences (Mac) or Edit > Preferences (Windows), click Apple TV, and make sure "Look for Apple TVs" is selected"
I don't have the ATV in itunes 10.1 (10.6.5):
!http://www.gballard.net/apple/Atv10.jpg!
I do have it in itunes 9 (10.4.9):
!http://www.gballard.net/apple/Atv9.png!
I recall some time back I unchecked "Look for Apple TVs" in itunes 9 so it didn't keep trying to update, but since updating to itunes 10 it appears broken.
I tried to read through this previous thread but it went all over the place.
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2568436&start=60&tstart=30
+++
I suppose I could erase/restore the ATV and get them talking again to upload 130GB of content...

I booted off an external FW of an Erase Start From Scratch 10.6.5 (OS only) install I use for maintenance.
itunes 8 (default first time opened), 10.6.5:
!http://www.gballard.net/apple/10-65-it8.png!
I booted off an external FW of a 10.6.4 clone of my full working hard drive (the source drive is the drive I am using now with the itunes 10.1 problem).
The clone has itunes 9.2 and still shows the atv icon.
The clone includes my full working itunes.
itunes 9.2, 10.6.4 clone:
!http://www.gballard.net/apple/it92-10-64.png!
This tells me the problem occurred somewhere in iTunes 10 and/or 10.6.5.
sigh...

"Look for Apple TVs" is checked, but Apple TVs a No-Show

My AppleTV refuses to re-unite itself with iTunes. In iTune Prefs the "Look for Apple TVs" is checked, but no Apple TVs show up in the box below. So I can't input the pass-code to get it syncing. It's weird because the network-password info in "Setup" and is correct working, the cables are all connected and secure, and the most current software is installed.
I just thought of something! It was working fine, but then my older DSL modem was damaged and I had a new WIRELESS DSL modem installed. But I DID re-input all the new info (new network name, password, etc.) and everything has been working fine except this new problem with Apple TV. Any ideas?
Tomorrow I will be installing Leopard OS. I wonder what effect this might have.

Please don't start two threads with the same question.

"Look for Apple TV" preference doesn't appear to work

Have just set up Apple TV for a friend, without realising the HD is only 40gb. As a result his music and photos have instantly filled the HD and it seems to be constantly trying to sync (or at least the spinning arrows beside the Apple TV in the devices list won't go away)
To solve the problem until I next get over there, I suggested he merely uncheck "look for Apple TVs" in his iTunes preferences, but the TV still comes up under the list of devices every time he opens iTunes. I have also got him to uncheck the option for synching music and photos in the tabs of his Apple TV device
Any assistance most appreciated
Kind Regards

Chances are it's your internet connection.
If you can play things under the Computers tab from your local itunes library without issues then your LAN is likely to be fine.
AppleTV2 does not play well with slow/variable interent connections for rentals.
Basically it calculates how much needs to download to flash memory to allow continuous playback without interruption at the rate your internet connection is delivering - if this rate drops due to more users in your area or perhaps throttling of bandwidth by your ISP then the calculation will be wrong and movies will stop/start.
If you simply have a slow connection, then you have to wait for much of the movie to download first, this may take some hours. On AppleTv1 the presence of an internal drive made this much more robust as the movie would stay on the unit until the rental/view period had expired. It might take hours to download (so rent in advance of viewing) but once it was there it would stay until expiration. AppleTV2 however does not retain the download and often if you restart the film it has to start downloading from scratch which I think is crazy.
Please send feedback here:
http://www.apple.com/feedback/appletv.html
I wish they had the option to 'lock the download in memory' until viewed or deleted - this would limit you to 1 HD movie rental at a time in order to keep enough free for other tasks/local streaming usage, but would make the device far more practical for slow connections.
You should test your internet connection at say speedtest.net on the computer.
Just as estimates I'd say:
1Mbps - probably 12 hours+ to start watching HD, less for SD
3-4Mbps - 20-30 mins to start watching HD, within a minute for SD (my speed)
8Mbps+ - watch within a few seconds
If you go to Settings and in iTunes store options change to SD from HD you may find you can watch far quicker with any new rentals, but if you want HD it defeats the purpose.

Where is the look for apple tv option gone?

Trying to setup apple tv on my mac, it is the old apple tv and all forums are telling me to look for apple tv in my settings. It is not there anywhere! I have connected atv to the internet and now just need to stream/save my content to it. ANY ideas will be great! thanx

TS1453 there is no "look for apple tv's " in preferences in itunes

Hi i cant connect my itunes and apple tv together , it doesnt come up in devices and when looking in preferences it does not show the tab to" look for apple tv's" can anyone help

That depends on how you set it all up. If you chose the "connect to iTunes" option then you should be able to sync content to the hard drive on the Apple TV. If you chose the "add shared library" option then you can only stream to the Apple TV.

Looking for apple authorize reseller in usa for iphone 4S or 5

I'm looking for apple authirized reseller in usa that sells unlocked iphone 4S or 5 , if any body will help with this topic , please.

No. They don't. Amazon and eBay are not authorized sources for iPhones. The only authorized resellers in the US are agents of the authorized carriers. Pretty much anyplace where you can sign up for a contract with a cellular carrier you can buy an iPhone.
If you want to carry the iPhone, you must be an authorized agent for a supported carrier. Then you go through the carrier to get your stock.

You're not talking to Apple. This forum is for technical support for using an iPhone in an enterprise environment.

Looking for a solution or service to export data from a dynamic form into a database

As the title of this discussion states, I'm looking for a solution or service to export data from a dynamic form into a database to be used for reporting. Creating the dynamic form is not a problem, it's getting it into a database that's more of a nuisance. A dynamic form is needed in order to provide skip logic, hide/reveal, and other similar dynamic features.
The database hasn't been created, so just looking for the easiest, more effective and dependable solution. The key is being able to run reports off the data later.

So i set up 2 residential grade routers to test this out. Seems to be working okayish. I believe with directional antenae routers I should achieve what I need.
As for security I configured each device separately. I set them so only allow the MAC address of the other through wireless. This seems to be the best system for me. Once they are connected even if a MAC is spoofed of the other router it drops automatically because they are always connected. My wired devices get plugged in and recieve an IP from my main network.
There more testing to be done, but it seems to be working.
Thanks for your input and suggestions guys. I will be marking this topic as answered.

Why won't Apple allow Verizon to let me upgrade from an Android phone to an iPhone 5 early at the reduced price?

Why won't Apple allow Verizon to let me upgrade from an Android phone to an iPhone 5 early at the reduced price?

Here's one of my responses from Verizon:
Dear Kevin,
Good Afternoon; I know how frustrating it is to want a new phone, and be told that you are not eligible to upgrade early. My name is Shane, and I will be assisting you today regarding your most recent email.
I am sorry to say that it is not possible for us to do the upgrade. We most certainly don’t want to lose a valued customer, but we can’t break our contract with Apple. If we did this for you, we would have to do it for everyone. If we did this for everyone we would risk losing our contract with Apple, and not be able to sell iPhones at all. I understand it is a savings to cancel your contract with us, and move to another provider we certainly don’t want you to do that, but that is an option for you.
Kevin, I am sorry that we were not able to give you the resolution you were wanting. I do appreciate you being a valued Verizon Wireless customer, and I hope you have a good day!
Sincerely,
Shane
Verizon Wireless

CAnnot upgrade serial number after download. 'This serial number is not for a qualifying product'. Trying to upgrade from ACS 5.5 Design Premium to ACS 6 Design Standard

Cannot upgrade serial number after download. 'This serial number is not for a qualifying product'. Trying to upgrade from ACS 5.5 Design Premium to ACS 6 Design Standard

start the installation of design premium cs5.5 just to make sure you're using the correct serial number. once your serial number is accepted you'll see a screen giving you the option to install none, some or all of the cs5.5 programs. at that point you can quit and not install anything having verified your cs5.5 serial number if you want nothing cs5.5 on your computer.
on the other hand, if your cs5.5 serial number is not accepted, you'll pinpoint the problem.
or, if your cs5.5 number is accepted, you could install a cs5.5 program and then install cs6. it should recognize you have a cs5.5 program installed and NOT prompt you for you cs5.5 serial number allowing you to continue with your cs6 installation.

Looking for a "desktop search" app

I am using kde, and I am searching for a desktop search app that uses a database and searches within common filetypes. I've tried a couple so far, and haven't found what I'm looking for:
kerry/beagle:WAAAY too much bloat; creates ~2gigs of logs per day, once crashed and started loading my filesystem with useless data.
strigi/clucene: tried it, didn't really work, settings kept on resetting to default.
I am looking for something that doesn't have heavy gnome dependencies.
Any suggestions / what are you using?

Next one...
RECOLL
Depends only on Qt and xapian-core (from community).
All its dependencies are in official repos except for libtextcat and xapian-core (both in community, however).
Src download is 850Kb, and since the package in [community] is outdated, I built one of my own:
Targets: recoll-1.90-1
Total Package Size: 0.9 MB
Total Installed Size: 2.6 MB
Backend:
It also uses the xapian backend.
It can run as a daemon that uses FAM or inotify to provide continuous monitoring/indexing, but the docu says it's probably better to run a cronjob.
While Pinot was using an xml config file, Recoll has a very detailed set of plaintext config files and it can maintain several indexes in parallel (e.g. one with monitoring and one with cronjob indexing).
plaintext, html and email are handled internally, and for other file types you have to resort to external utilities again, of which unrtf is in community, pstotext is only in AUR and I didn't find id3lib/id3info at all.
Again, extension is possible. Here you have several steps which take resources and are slightly more complex to set up than in pinot, but probably allow more fine-grained tweaking: you have a mimeconf configuration where you associate mimetype and filter ('application/pdf = exec rclpdf'), you have an assortment of filters ready in /usr/share/recoll/filters, you have a mimemap config file where you can associate filenames/endings and mimetypes (Unfortunately it uses a different format from e.g. mutt's mime.types, but it also includes special, recoll-only settings - like exclude certain files from indexing or associate files with a certain name with a different mimetype when they're in another direcory)
Search:
Recoll has its own (qt, non-kde) GUI and is only adressable therewith, thus not integrated with any of the other frontends. (Export for pinot, which should be able to access recoll's xapiandb...)
You can use proximity and phonetic search, stem expansion and glob/regex expressions. And you can specify search criteria by metainfo (author, subject, keywords). AFAICT, Recoll does not (yet) understand queries that conform to Xesam specs, neither RDF.
Recoll remembers the last few searches that you performed. You can use a combobox to recall them. However, only the search texts are remembered, not the mode (all/any/file name). (Also documents actually pre-/viewed are remembered.)
Typing Esc Space while entering a word in the simple search entry will open a window with possible completions for the word. The completions are extracted from the database.
Double-clicking on a word in the result list or a preview window will insert it into the simple search entry field.
Search results formatting can be formatted freely with a qt-html expression per default they display several occurancies of the search term along with their respective, (very) limited context. They can be opened either with a mimeview configuration similar to the mimemap file from above or with xdg-open. Or you can view them in an external preview window (which has an incr. search feature). (You have icons for file types but no thumbnails.)
Experiences:
System seemed to me to not be so very sluggish when it did the indexing.
The same directory with ~3100 files, mostly pdf, a few doc and html files, weighing in at 1.5Gb. was indexed in
real 15m13.378s
user 8m47.466s
sys 3m33.439s
and additional stem databases for german and french took another 50 secs.
du -h:
14M ./xapiandb/stem_english
15M ./xapiandb/stem_de
13M ./xapiandb/stem_fr
236M ./xapiandb
246M .
Recoll UI started up quickly and results were returned almost instantaneously. (Not a complicated search expression, tho) I have not yet tested for complicated expressions or a test search for a term that occurs only rarely, so I cannot tell if the small db size has its drawbacks.
So these are still open questions:
[*] monitoring-mode performance impact?
[*] search expression options: RDF ?
[*] search results: how accurately?
[*] attitude towards Xesam and offering services to other frontends?
What I find interesting is its configurability, and the small db size (well, as of now I have only pinot to compare it with, so maybe it's not so extraordinary after all).
(Next will be Tracker...)
