I need some direction to select the right DR to install Catalog

I just got LR 2. and I'm at a crossroad not sure which way to go. This is my current situation:
I am have a Mac 10.5 and use mostly Ext HDs, except for Apps that I run using the Int. HD. I have about 175 GB worht of images.
I have the following Ext HD:
1- 1 TB - 550 GB avail. (fw) I am using it as my primary Data, and back up drive
2- 500 GB (USB) - 346 GB avail - as secondary back up drive
3- 350 GB (USB) -198 GB avail - as third back up copy.
However, I am not sure if this is the right way to go since I'd like to keep 2 back up copies of all my images, in addition I would like to install LR Catalog on one of the Ext HD, as well as, backing up LR using one of the Ext HD. I have read that it's best to use the fastest DR to install the Catalog
So my questions is which Dr. should I install the Catalog?
Which DR do I set LR's back up (catalog not images)?
Which DR do I set as the primary one to use while using LR?
Another thing I'm not quite sure if I should even try to use TM since I read that it's not recommended to use while using LR.

Thanks Nicola
I think we both are in agreement and thank you for confirming it . Now comes the heavy task of removing and reformatting the drives yikes. So you think that buy installing the catalog in the Int HD it will not take a lot of room?
I am aware that I will importing the images (as reference) so they will be stored on the FW HD, so the command for any alteration on the images would not take a lot of space on the DR?
McPhotoman
I have another question about TM, how you made your selection for the destination DR to put your TM backups? Do you have a dedicated DR or have other stuff there as well.
Are you telling me that I could excluded "the catalog" in the TM preference while I am setting it up
I have no experience with TM and to be honest I'm confused. I'm not sure if I should dedicated a DR solely for TM

Need some advice on choosing the right iPad

My wife has been dropping some subtle hints that she'd like an iPad for Christmas. I'm playing dumb for the time being so she'll be surprised when the time comes but I'm forced to admit that I'm a bit ignorant when it comes to choosing the right model for her. She wants one specificaly for pictures,but will probably also use it for downloading audio books, e-mail and web. While I'd like nothing more than to be able to afford the latest and greatest, cost IS a consideration so I'm looking at used & refurbished 2's in the $300-$350 range; maybe a 3 if I can make it fit the budget.
Of the older generations out there, which one has the better camera and would I better off with a 64 gig rather than a 32?

What are all the differences between the iPad 3rd Gen and the iPad 2? Is the iPad 2 worth the cost savings?

Need help selecting the right MBP for me, just bought a pc with Windows 8 and I already regret it..

Ok, so I'm an engineering student and I am in need of a good laptop to run programming and design type software. I have an older iMac which I love but I need the portability of a laptop for school. I was thinking I would be fine with a pc since most of the software I would be using for school is windows based. So last night, after shopping around for quite a bit, I decided to go with a Sony Vaio E series laptop with Windows 8, 8gb ram, i7 processor, dedicated graphics card, 1tb hard drive, and touch screen. It was the best performance laptop (on paper) Best Buy had in the store for just under $1000. I would have loved to get an upper end MBP but they are over twice the price as the Sony.. So I get it home with the Vaio and it feels laggy and glitchy, it takes 2 seconds for the window to pop up after 'right clicking', I can see lines in the screen, the resolution seems far from HD when on the normal looking windows side (as opposed to the tablet look, forgive my poor terminology) and the web browser, and the touch pad seems to be hit or miss in that it doesn't always register the touch pad commands. I checked all of the visual and performance settings, made the resolution as high as possible, changed some of the settings to the high performance settings, made sure all of my drivers were updated, and the only effect was a very loud fan that runs constantly.
So in short, I am going to take this back and start looking at the macbook pros. Here's my dilemna, I don't know which specs I will definitely need in a Macbook Pro. I need to be able to run windows on it either in parallel or as a partition for my programs necessary for school. Can the MBP run windows smoothly enough to run 3D design types of programs? If so, which one should I get? I love the size of the 13" MBP but it only has a dual core processor, instead of the quad core like the 15" MBP, I'm not sure if I definitely need the quad over the dual core. I would love a solid state MBP but they are out of my price range and not enough space if I end up partitioning it.
Sorry for the book, but school starts Monday and I need some direction to find out which one I need to get fairly quickly. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Take a look at this MBP, a refurbished unit. Don't let the late 2011 release date put you off. For about $500 less than an equivalent 'new' one with similar specifications you get a quad core CPU and excellent graphics. As Steve359 mentioned, this can be upgraded if the need arises and has the same warranty as a 'new' one
I would not be surprised that these may actually be 'new' MBPs due to the length of time that they have been replaced by the current generation. I purchased a 17" model about 5 weeks ago, and a serial number check suggests that it is 9 weeks old.

"Verify that you have selected the right BC4J package"??

Through out the "Dev guide", while describing steps to create Association Objects, view Link, etc, it has been mentioned to "Verify that you have selected the right BC4J package". What does it actully mean? What is the 'right' BC4J package. In various sites(Anil Passi), I have noticed, they have created three packages, server, schema and webui. But, nowhere in the documentation, did I find that these packages need to be created for "custom development". Will I run into issues, if I create packages with a different name? Are there any docs explaning the different right BC4J packages that need to be created. Or is this a basic understanding that all Java Developers know and follow.
Kindly throw some light.
Thanks!

vimal,
This is not mandatory that you have to create these packages but these are the standards, which need to be followed.
In toolbox tutorial you will find the description about the packages structures.

How to select the right JSP for a locale

This may be a very stupid question but someone please help me out. I've
looked at the JSP spec and the Weblogic documentation and even browsed the
newsgroup and I still can't figure this out. Perhaps I'm just being dense
(more than likely).
What we want to do is support multiple locals from one server. My idea is
that we'd write the JSP in English then hire translation companies to
convert the JSP to French,German, Japanese, etc.(We've moved all the java
code out of the JSPs using taglibs/java beans to make this easier). What
we'd like to do is have all the languages on the server at once and based on
the local of the client select the right JSP. We'd still like the URL to
remain constant. What I can't seem to figure out is how to have one URL
(like http:/www.myserver.com/example.JSP) and have the server select the
right real JSP for the local (like example-en.JSP, example-fr.JSP, etc).
I had hoped I could find a deployment descriptor (J2EE or Weblogic specific)
directive that mapped a URL to a set of JSP based on locale but I don't see
one.
How does one make this happen or is the wrong way to do it". If it the
"wrong way" what is the right way? Any links or example someone can point
me to would be great.

We use a Servlet "filter" (not the Servlet 2.3 sense, but a 2.2 servlet that
does a RequestDispatch.forward())
This filter selects the most appropriate JSP page (using a similar naming
convention to the one you indicate), then server-side forwards to it. Works
quite well.

"Kent Mitchell" <[email protected]> wrote in message
news:[email protected]...
So has anybody come up with other solutions that work better. I was
thinking about having a "main" jsp that all it did was check the local and
then forward the request to the right internationalized jsp. So forexample
I'd have the three files:
someMain.jsp
someMain-EN.jsp
someMain-FR.jsp
The main check the local and forwards to EN for English and FRfor French.
etc.. Has anyone done anything like this? Is so what were the pros and
cons?

Kent,
Most common way of doing this is having one jsp where All the
Textual
messages in the page are read from properties file based on Locale.

New to SAP, need some direction

Hi everyone, pretty much as the title states, I'm brand new to SAP and I need some direction as to what's the best way to start learning it.
To make my long story short, the company I work for was going to transition from a home-grown Sybase application to SAP Business One. 9 months and $150k later, they decide SAP sucks. Which upsets me because there's about 20 pages of SAP related stuff on all the job hunting sites and I'm always looking to "broaden my horizons" or something like that.
So now that no one using SAP... I want to start taking it apart and learning how it works. I just have no idea where to begin. I looked at the FAQs and all, but I don't think I'm even at that point yet.
So how can someone completely new to SAP get started?
Thanks in advance.

Hello, I need some help on renaming the title on mi web pages!

Hello, I need some help on renaming the title on mi web pages! appear to be locked by the template and I would like to know if is posible rename each page with diferent title? Thanks,

@ Gary: No, there is no need to specify an editable region in the page title.
If you make a template from a page, by saving it as a template (using "save as template"), the page title is automatically made editable.
@ Jesus: if you look into the code of your template or of any childpage, it should read like this:

<title>Mi PageTitle</title>

meaning that the page title is indeed editable.
If it does not look like this, something went wrong.
Maybe do a little test, save your page as a template and see if the code reads as above.
It is important that you keep your templates in the Templates folder in your root folder
Do not move the folder or change its name, otherwise it will not work.

Mistakenly selected the right click in mouse settings

my son mistakenly selected the right click in the "keyboard and mouse" settings under system preferences . that means my mouse is virtually not usuable now . it doesn't allow anything to clicked using mouse . only mouse works is just to have right click option . Is there way to fix this issue by navigating thru keyboard and change the option to left click from right click. i can reach to window where i see its showing the "right click" option selected but can't do anything to change . please help. othewise i have to re-install the O/S .
this is for Mac OS x .

i can reach to the Keyboad and Mouse Window by right clicking on the system preferences and the type the mouse and keyboard option but after that the tab does work to reach the left radio button.
i am thinking about re-installing as its look like its not that simple for me . just tell me a way to completly format it and reinstall the O/S .
thanks for you answer.

Hi CPI Pierre,
You can determine what is using the memory in your iPad Air by looking at Settings > General > Usage > Manage Storage.
If you are having issues with insufficient memory you may want to troubleshoot using the steps in this article -

Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

Hi. I am reinstalling Macbook Pro OS X from the "question mark icon". During process, there is a question "select the disk where to install Mac OS X" but there is no option/selection in the box. I really need your help guys. I need it badly. :'(

Hi. I am reinstalling Macbook Pro OS X from the "question mark icon". During process, there is a question "select the disk where to install Mac OS X" but there is no option/selection in the box. I really need your help guys. I need it badly. :'(

If you got the question mark and you do not see any partition to install OS X to, it is not good.
Close the OS X installer by pressing the red button at the top left corner of the Install OS X window, and open Disk Utility. Then, look at the left sidebar and tell me if you see your hard drive. You should see something like this:
Do not worry if you do not see Macintosh HD or if the option with an arrow shows a different name. This is normal.
If you see it, choose it, go to the Erase tab and erase the drive. Finally, close Disk Utility and reinstall OS X. You will lose everything if you do not have a backup.
If you do not see the drive, it is damaged and it has to be replaced. You can replace the hard drive of a MacBook Pro without voiding the warranty, and any 2'5" SATA hard drive is valid. If you are not an experienced user or you do not want to go inside the MacBook, take it to an Apple Store or reseller.
