I need the BEST configuration...PLEASE!!!

ok I have ALL of my media on a External NAS...a Westen Digital My World II to be exact. I access itunes from several computers. my laptop, my wifes laptop, and a computer that stays on all the time just so that I can have itunes always up for the ATV3. My itunes is SOOOO SLOOOW and I have been reading so many different ways to configure the system that I don't know what to do. some people say to have th elibrary and .xml files on each local machine. some people say keep it on the NAS. All I want to do is be able to have separate playlist then my wife but be able to edit and/or update the library from any of my computers. is that too much to ask?

Hi,
I guess this mostly depends how complex each context is going to be.
The only thing I can think of at the moment would be the "packet-tracer" command on the CLI. Same can be found on the ASDM side also.
What this command does is that it shows you what rules/configurations/translations the ASA would apply to the packet if it were to enter the ASA
Basic command format is
packet-tracer input
Where
interface = The source interface where the connection would come from
protocol = Usually TCP/UDP/ICMP
source IP = Source IP address for the connection
source port = Random source port for the connection
destination IP = Destination IP address for the connection
destination port = Destination port for the connection
I personally use the above command to test NAT rules quite often after I've done some changes. I might also use it in cases where I have a large ACL on an interface and want to quickly test if a certain connection would pass the ACL and to which ACL line it would "hit".
I used this command quite a lot in my biggest migration project from pre 8.2 environment to post 8.3 environment. This was mostly because I didnt use any tool to convert the NAT rules but just went through them one by one and when I was done I confirmed with "packet-tracer" that everything was working OK.
In the end I ended up with only 1 NAT that wasnt working but it was simply due to Copy/Paste problems. Had a wrong destination interface in a Static NAT command.
There are naturally alot of commands to go through the firewall when you have configured it but I would say that "packet-tracer" command gives the most information out of all of them.
Please do rate if you found the information helpfull and/or ask more questions.

I will be buying the new IMac 27 inch in December. Would like input on the best configuration for photographic and possibly video processing-dream machine!

I will be buying an IMac 27 inch in December. What is the best configuration for photo and possibly video processing.Does one need a Mac Pro? Dream machine!

Just to explain what I just wrote to Laundry Bleach:
Why is there no iDVD on my new Mac?
https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3673
UPDATE & ADDENDUM:
But even though you can still buy iLife 11 that includes iDVD 7 from Amazon, Apple now make it difficult to install:
Poster jhb21939 posted this in another thread:
“when I attempted to load iDVD into a new iMac. A notice came up on the screen stating that the 'Authorisation Licence' had expired on 25 March this year (2012).
I contacted the Apple support team and eventually, I was told that the Licence had been withdrawn and could no longer be used.”
In other words Apple are now so adamant that we don’t use iDVD that they have tried to make it impossible to install.
In response, Old Toad posted this solution:
“You can still use it one all of your Macs. If you get an invalid certificate message just set your Mac's clock to sometime before early 2011 and run the installer. After you're done reset the time back to the correct time.” He added this comment:
“It began after iDVD and iWeb were discontued and they were dropped from the Apple Store. All I can think of is the certificate was set to expire after a certain time period after the intitial iLife disc was released.
I've been able to use the installer even without setting back the date. I just clicked on the Continue button and it would work as expected. For some it would not continue unless the date was set back.”
The latest anorexic iMacs just announced do not even include a CD drive! Proof positive that Apple virtually prohibit the use of DVDs - although the newly announced Mac Minis do include a Superdrive.
Yet, they still include iMovie! Heaven alone knows or understands what you are supposed to do with your newly edited masterpiece - except make a low quality version for YouTube?

Need serious help about understanding settings on photoshop for the best quality- please reply is you know a lot about this.

Ideally I'd like to speak to someone from the UK as I feel I can't write out everything I want to say because it's too confusing and it isn't just one question.
I need help with setting photoshop so the images are the best quality on screen and for websites and printing and how I can change that etc I've heard different things and I just need some clarification and advice.
Obviously I'm sure some of you wont want to give personal details out that's fine but I'm generally just in need of some advice, let me know if you can help:)

I don't change any settings. For 1X web images I always use Save for Web. PS remembers which web settings you used the last time. This doesn't effect other files or formats.

Netgear Stora, what is the best configuration for smooth operation

I have a Netgear stora, and I know how to configure the best possible way this system for Mac NAS. It always gives me problems and the NAS system invites me to visit the Apple community.
In Windows XP system and Windows 7 works correctly.
Can you help please, I do not know if you need another type of program, or if my mac must have a particular program to work or any particular update, since this update to version 10.7.4.
Thank you very much.

thanks Rick
what about the differences in the two processor
options.
is there really a noticeable difference?
thanks
niko
I seriously doubt that there would be. My 2.16Ghz iMac is plenty fast and I doubt that most people would be able to tell the difference between it and the 2.33. By FAR the most important upgrade is RAM. Don't get the extra RAM from Apple though -- it's too expensive and the RAM is easily upgradeable. Buy it from Crucial and install it yourself. I got 2 gigs from them for $85 plus shipping. Just remember, there are only 2 RAM slots so if you want to max it out at 3 gigs you will have to get a 2 gig stick and a 1 gig.

Which will be the best configuration to install IDES on LAPTOP

Dear Experts,
I planning to buy a new HP laptop(any other brand which is more compatible), with 4gb ram and 1tb HDD and I want to install IDES, so which processor will be the best, compatible or fast/ reliable?
Will windows 8.1 support GUI, if i install GUI?
Kindly suggest for another configuration which suits to IDES.
Please share your views.
Regards,
Prasad.

Hi Prasad
1. I am not sure about Windows 8.1 OS supports, but you can select the latest version of SAP ECC ERP6 EHP7.
refer the SAP Note 2012989 - IDES ERP 6.0 incl. EHP7
2. SAPGui supports on 7.30 with patch level 6 onwards

I need the best antivirus for nokia c6

Hello dude..
Wud u please kindly give me the best antivirus for my nokia c6 symbian s60 5th edition?

As your phone can not get infected with any Virus..in fact you do not need any AV. It will un-necessarily occupy free space on your phone and may slow down the functioning too...

Whats the Best Configuration for Professional Photographers ???

Hello Everybody,
Can Please somebody tell Me Whats the Right Configuration for a Photographer I am Into Photography and Have to edit files (Photos ) upto 35 - 60 Mb size In Photoshop CS4 or Phase One Software which itself takes about 1GB of RAM I think Is The New 20" iMac 2.66Ghz with 2Gb RAM enough or do I need a 4GB RAM ??? This is the first time I will be going for a Apple Product so have no Idea about the System Please let Me know as Soon as Possible
Thankyou

I think any of the current models would be up to the task. But since you are a pro photographer, you might consider NOT getting the base line 20" model and instead upgrading to the 24" model. Not only do you get a bigger screen to work with when editing your photos, but it also comes standard with 4GB, twice the memory of the 20" model.

What is the best configuration with Mac Book air, time capsule and external hard drive?

Hi, I just bought a MacBook Air with the new Time Capsule and I was wondering what is the best set up:
Option 1: use the time capsule as my main drive and back it up onto an external drive plugged at the back of it
or Option 2: use the external drive as the main drive and use the time capsule as the back up? in that case, would the ext drive need to be plugged to the MacBook Air?
Many thanks

Option 2 is far superior.. and actually the only one that works.
That is without killing yourself or having continual issues accessing your files.
You do need to plug the external disk into the MBA.

What is the Best Configuration for using SSD & HDD Internal Drives in iMac?

Hi,
I have a Refurbished 2011 21.5" iMac. It came with a 1TB HDD. I had a 120GB SSD custom installed by Other World Computing. I would like to reap the speed benefits of having the OS and applications reside on the SSD and having most of my heavy, frequently used data on the HDD. I've considered simply going the route of changing the advanced settings of my user configuration so that my home directory is located on the HDD. I've read this is an ok solution, but that there may be better ways to do this to get the best out of the available speed of the SSD. Could anyone recommend better options?
For reference, I use apps like Photoshop Lightroom, the NIK suite of photo editing applications and Photoshop CS6 pretty heavily. I don't do much movie editing or production...only occasional slideshows in iMovie...although I do keep a lot of old, imported, video footage of my kids on my HDD and on my backup system.
Thanks,
Ben Shugart

NEED THE BEST QUALITY QUICKTIME MOVIE FOR DVD! THANKS FOR ANY ADVICE.

I just finished a three minute piece that will be shown on DVD and projected to a sixteen foot screen. I usually just output a self-contained quicktime movie with current settings and then compress with bitvice. While I'm happy with those results, because of the size of this screening, I'm curious whether there might be better options for output to quicktime, such as uncompressed, etc?
I've also heard that I could output as a Jpeg, or a PNG file, but I'd love some advice on what works best and the workflow, as I need to get this done fast and can't really afford the time to experiment.
Any advice would be HUGELY appreciated. THANKS1

I usually just output a self-contained quicktime movie with current settings and then compress with bitvice.
That will provide the best quality ... the quality won't improve over what you had in FCP. Depending on your source media type(s), you may have had a better quality export IF you had edited and rendered with another setting.

What is the best configuration for 2 AP's Broadcasting? same SSID/channel?

So i have 2 WRT54G version 2.0 wireless routers. They are not doing DHCP for my home network, i have another device (Sonicwall Firewall) that is taking care of that. Originally I had 1 wireless router (acting as just an access point, but I now have an additional one and want to add it to extend wireless coverage.
My question is this. How do i make it so that laptops can roam around my house and switch from AP to AP depending on which one has the best signal? Is this possible?
I figure that i would have to obviously disable DHCP on each router. But what about SSID's. Can they be the same? What channel should i use, the same for both, or different channels?
Any help would be awesome, Thank you!
-Aaron

For a roaming network both access points must have the identical SSID and identical security settings. Regarding the channel it is difficult to say. They should be different as broadcasting on the same channel creates interference. Better whould be to use non over-lapping channels, e.g. channel 1 & 6. The problem, however, are the clients. Some clients have difficulty with roaming across channels.
I had two access points with channel 1 & 6. My laptop worked fine in all locations with interruption. However, my WiFi-IP-Phone had troubles. It seems to search the channels from 1 up, thus I was able to roam from channel 1 to 6 but never back. The phone just disconnected.
So, I would recommend to use different channels and test if your clients can roam without problems. If you'll find that one does not properly work try to put them on the same channel. Also: be patient when changing the configuration. I would even recommend to power cycle the router after each change of channel as well as the client. In the beginning I never did that and very often it did not work in the beginning but after an hour it work. I suppose this was because I was using WPA2 and some problems due to the rotation encryption keys WPA2 is using...

Need the default configuration of map-class and policies for WAAS version 5.3.1.20

Do someone have the default configuraion cli of class-maps and policies for the WAAS version 5.3.1.20. I need this to compare with the configuration that I have in the network, I need the verify what have been changed.

I'm sure you figured this out already since it's been 9 months. But just in case someone needs this - you can restore the default policies if they don't show up. Device Groups -> AllWAASGroup and edit. There you will see a "Restore default Optimization Policies"

The Best Configuration for Mac Pro

Hey All,
I'm getting a Mac Pro in April, and I'm just seeing if you guys new the best configureation for the Mac Pro, Now I like alot of space and I love watching Dvd's on my mac, I'm also really in to making great home movies!
Thanks!

You don't need to do much of anything to get good performance.
Once you've gotten use to it, and paid down a bit, shop for more RAM, check for what type and size of drives, and do make sure to include backups and maintenance.

I need the best Bass & Tremble

So I just got these new speakers/clock
http://www.ihomeaudio.com/iP87BZ/#featur
So I needed suggestions I like to listen to alot of music that has quite Bass & Tremble in it. So the options it gives me is Bass -5 - +5 Tremble -5 - +5 those are the options. Im trying to find the best setting without using the EQ on my iPod because my iPod cant give me those options.

"Best" is completely subjective. What you like may not be anything close to what someone else would like. You'll just have to work with the EQ settings until you find ones that suit you for the type of music you listen to.
Regards.
