I'm trying to decide the amount of memory I need in an iPad. I'm a graduate student and am purchasing the iPad to load my books onto, keep a planner, and stream TV

I'd rather have too much memory as opposed to too little.. but I don't want to spend an extra 100 bucks if I don't need to! I don't really understand the whole memory thing - so I guess I'm looking for an explanation of that - as well as what people in similar situations use.
Thanks in advance!

The amount of memory used for data is a lot larger than the saved file size why is this and can I get the memory usage down without splitting up the file?

I end up having to take a lot of high sample rate data for relativily long periods of time. When I save the data it is usually over 100 MB. When I load the data for post-processing though the amount of memory used is excessively higher than the file size. This causes my computer to crash because 1.5 GB is not enough. Is there a way to stop this from happening withoput splitting up the file into smaller files.

LabVIEW can efficiently handle large files, far beyond 100Mb, provided that care is taken in the coding of the loading/processing routines. Here are several suggestions:
1) Check out the resources National Instruments has put together (NI Developer Zone > Development Library > Measurement and Automation Software > LabVIEW > Development System > Optimizing Applications > Managing Memory), specifically the article entitled "Managing Large Data Sets in LabVIEW".
2) Load and process the data in chunks if possible.
3) Avoid sending the data to front panel indicators, using local/global variables for data storage, or changing data types unless absolutely necessary.
4) If using LabVIEW 7.1, use the "show buffer" tool to determine when LabVIEW is creating extra
copies of data in memory.

And maybe you don't talk to too many people but I've been on many forums on different websites where people have had similar problems and a lot of people in the store were having battery problems where they were draining too fast. What I learned is that all the people who did not download the updates are good. There phone is working the same. The people who have, they're having battery problems
I have downloaded every update and my battery life is better than any previous iPhone I have ever owned. I see posts from hundreds of people every day, and this is not a commonly reported problem. While there are a few random reports of battery problems, it is no more than I have seen for any other model or any other version of iOS in almost 8 years. Usually problems of rapid battery drain can be traced to bad apps (FaceBook is the worst offender) or corrupt data being synced from iCloud or other sources (gmail, Windows Live, Yahoo, etc).
The simple test is to restore the phone as New. Do not create any email accounts. Do not install any apps. Do not enable FaceTime or iMessage. Do not enable Twitter or any other social networking app. Use it for a day and check the battery usage. You will find that it is working well.
And also see this: http://www.overthought.org/blog/2014/the-ultimate-guide-to-solving-ios-battery-d rain. It is the best treatise I have seen on the subject of battery usage.

HT3919 In the past was able to adjust the memory for each individual application, my Illustrator CS5 appears is doesn't have enough memory to complete a particular project. How do I boost the amount of memory that Illustrator uses so I can complete my pro

In the past I have always been able to adjust the memory of each individual application,
my Adobe Illustrator CS5 appears that is doesn't have enough memory to complete a particular project.
How do I boost the amount of memory that Illustrator uses so I can complete my project?

With OS X, it automatically allocates RAM and it can't be allocated manually.
What model Mac do you have and what OS X version is it running. Your profile shows a PowerMac and OS 10.6.8. A PowerMac can't run OS 10.6.8. It's max OS is 10.5.x
How much RAM is installed in your Mac? You need to max out the RAM and close other open apps if you are having problems with Illustrator.

Hi, I own a I phone 4, a ipad 1 and just purchased a ipad 3, I have 15g worth of icould data but my photostream doesn't stream all of my photos to my new ipad when connected to wifi????

Hi, I own a I phone 4, a ipad 1 and just purchased a ipad 3, I have 15g worth of icould data but my photostream doesn't stream all of my photos to my new ipad when connected to wifi???? It appears to be streaming photos from the last 10 or so days but no more? I have enough storage on my new ipad??

Photo Stream does not count towards your iCloud storage plan.
Your iOS devices keep a rolling collection of your last 1000 Photos in the Photo Stream album. Only photos taken within the last thirty days and since Photo Stream was activated will be synced.

A few selection of websites after fully loading become blank and start an infinite loop of loading. I reinstalled firefox once already and the problem persists. What can I do?

A few selection of websites after fully loading become blank and start an infinite loop of loading. I reinstalled firefox once already and the problem persists. What can I do?

Sorry I do not know what the problem may be. <br />
If no-one comes up with better ideas of what causes this then my questions and suggestions:
What do you mean by an infinite loop ? <br />
The page loads and then goes blank. What exactly happens next, does the page fully load and fully display again before going blank, and repeat this cycle endlessly in the same tab.
You do say the problem persisted in safe-mode and you had looked at the basic troubleshooting article. Buy that you can stop the problem by disabling javascript.
* did you disable all plugins - and did you still get the problem then ?
As you mention disabling javascript stops the problem, have you tried with<br /> Java script enabled but
* block popups ON
* load images automatically OFF
* advanced options - ALL OFF<br /> What happens do you get the problem then or not.
While on this firefox site if I look at the error console Ctrl+Sift+J or Tools -> Error console If I clear the console content and reload the webpage the error console shows only a couple of messages. YouTube home page give a lot of yellow triangle warnings about 200, but no red warnings, do you get red warnings.
You could also try on the problem sites eg YouTube changing the permissions with tools -> Page Info | Permissions
Did you try the Basic Troubeshooting suggestion of making a new profile. (Heeding the warning not to delete settings, otherwise you loose all bookmarks etc) did that help ?

On current situation, I’m also guess that this issue (above error message) may be caused by different language

If any update, please feel free to let me know.
Hope this helps.

I have an iPad1 and just purchased an iPad Air, both on the same iTunes account. Is it possible to UNSYNC the two iPads. I would like to use the iPad1 as a library for my frequent guests: KINDLE, AUDIBLE,

I have an iPad1 and just purchased an iPad Air, both of which are on the same iTunes account. Is it possible to UNSYNC the two iPads with the purpose of using the iPad1 as a "Bare-Bones" library for my frequent guests: The content of my KINDLE, AUDIBLE, & ZINIO Accounts/Apps. How would I go about doing this, if it is at all possible?

Is it possible to have an Iphone and an IPAD on the same Itunes account on a PC?
yes.
the number of mobile devices you can use with a single instance of iTunes is virtually unlimited.

i am with a university and i purchased the adobe photoshop elements for a faculty member of mine, how can he download it when it is in my name but he is the one needing it?

There is nothing to prevent him from downloading and installing the trial version (Adobe - Download free trial version Adobe Photoshop Elements 12 | Adobe). At the point all you need to do is provide him with the serial number so that he can activate it. If the intent is that he be the owner of the software then you might want to see about transfering the license...

I have photoshop CS4 with the newest update. I'm a photographer and just purchased the new canon 7d mk II. Today, I shot some photos on raw but am unable to pull them up in photoshop. A window pops up saying "photoshop cannot recognize this type of file.

I have photoshop CS4 with the newest update. I'm a photographer and just purchased the new canon 7d mk II. Today, I shot some photos on raw but am unable to pull them up in photoshop. A window pops up saying "photoshop cannot recognize this type of file. The thumbnails are white with a blue and white CR2 on them. Please help.

Adobe Camera Raw 5.7 is the latest for Photoshop CS4 Adobe - Photoshop : For Windows
The problem is that your new camera is supported by ACR 8.7 and only Photoshop CS6 and up supports this version.
So if you do not want to buy CS6 or subscribe to the $10/month Photography Program, you have to convert the CR2 files to DNG to work on them. Your original CR2s are untouched in the process, you just can't directly edit them in CS4, only the DNGs.
Maybe Canon offers editing software for their CR2s, but CS4 is not going to be updated and there is no way around that.
It's not what you want to hear, but that's the situation so far.
Maybe Elements or Lightroom has updated raw support for your camera, so I encourage you to visit those forums and ask.

I'm a video editor working primarily in FCP7 and just purchased the latest Mac Pro running Yosemite ? Does anyone know if any options have become available for running FCP7 on this platform ?

It would "run" (more like Sunday stroll or walk) if you installed Snow Leopard in a VM. Especially if you have 6-core (and would help to have 6 or 8 cores anyway if you were able to and intend to make best use of nMP for video editing).
If you "classic" Mac Pro was 2009 or later, adding two AMD graphic cards, upgrading the processor to 8-core 3.xGHz would have gotten you a FCP-X capable machine and still dual boot and use Snow Leopard as needed.
Any Mac Pro can now use 1000MB/sec SSD PCIe blade to boot from and/or for scratch and editing to help improve work flow.

Save the photo from the received email - select and hold on the photo until prompted to save the photo.
The following was copied from the iPad user guide.
Wallpaper and Lock Screen Photos
You can display a photo in the wallpaper background of the Lock screen and Home screen. You can choose from several wallpaper pictures included with iPad, or you can use a photo of your own.
Set a photo as screen wallpaper:
Choose any photo and tap , then tap Use As Wallpaper.
Drag to pan the photo, or pinch the photo to zoom in or out, until it looks the way you want. Keep in mind that the image will be displayed in both portrait and landscape orientations but won’t rotate.
Tap Set Wallpaper. Then tap to use the image as wallpaper for the Home screen, on the Lock screen, or both.
To choose from several wallpaper pictures included with iPad, go to Settings > Brightness & Wallpaper.

If I already have a particular app under one apple Id and I purchase the same app under a different Id for the same device, will it overwrite or replace the previous or will I have two of the same app on the same device??

If I already have a particular app under one apple Id and I purchase the same app under a different Id for the same device, will it overwrite or replace the previous or will I have two of the same app on the same device??
I'm asking because I purchased an app with an id that has been cancelled so I cannot update that particular app. I can purchase the app with my new id but I don't want to do so if its going to erase all the data I have with the previous purchase...

Figured it out. Thanks.
