Is there a DLNA compliant Media Server for the iMAC

Is ther a DLNA compliant Media Server that will run on an Intel based iMAC running Lion?

I used to have a 30 foot HDMI cable going from my Mac to my Denon receiver (which just turned in to a second monitor) and using Plex, I would play my HD MKV files without issue. Now my Mac mini is in one room and the home theater is in another and I can't get any AVI or MKV files to play through my Samsung equipment. Vuze SUPPOSEDLY supports streaming to thousands of DLNA devices but while I could see my files, none of them would play. I've also tried Plex, VLC, EyeConnect, and TVMobili. I have the same problem with all of them. Either they won't play MKV files, or I'll select an AVI and it'll see the file but never play it. Then each server, in its own way, disconnects from my device.
Hardware:
Samsung PN51D8000 Plasma
Samsung BD-D5500 Blu-Ray
Denon 3808CI
Mac Mini - Intel 2.4GHz, 8 GB RAM, OS X Lion 10.7.2
Thanks for any assistance anyone can provide.

What to delete for a barbones media server for the new ATV...

I am buying one of the new ATVs and own a laptop, so I am "borrowing" my parents' old iMac PPC running 10.5.7. There isn't a whole lot of room on the hard drvie so I am wondering what I can delete that will give me the most bang for my buck. Language stuff, printer drivers, etc.
I have gotten rid of the obvious stuff like an old iPhoto library, itunes library, documents, etc. I am now looking for additional stuff to dump. Thanks!

have you considered getting an external HD to move the iTunes library to ?

Is there a product for the IMac that is essentially a sales contact software? I am a user of ACT Contact Software for pcs

Is there a sales contact software (database) for the IMAC? I have been using ACT Contact software for the pc for years.

There are numerous contact management applications. Not sure if one is specifically devoted to sales contacts, but you can look for what's available either at the App Store (if you have 10.6.6 or later installed) by clicking on the App Store icon in your Dock or in the Applications folder. You can also search at MacUpdate or CNET Downloads

If the iMac is suppose to be secure from viruses, malware,spyware and other internet threats, then howcome i have seen internet security programs for the iMac?

on the website it clearly stated "It’s highly secure and reliable" and that "You don’t need to buy software to speed it up, keep it safe, or get it to work better." and it also says that "The built-in defenses on a Mac help keep you safe from viruses and malware without the hassle of constant alerts and sweeps." If this is the case, then howcome in download .com, i have seen internet security programs for the imac?
So if one day i accidentelly stumble across a website that has malware in it, will the imac protect me?
Theres this website that i feel to afraid to go to because some people reported a malware threat on that website. But will i be able to safely go to that website with the imacs security?
Im just confused that there are these internet security programs for the imac despite of the imacs built in security.

In addition to Kappy's excellent advice, you need to remember that only you can protect yourself (and your Mac) - for instance, I never go near any torrent site. Not only are most torrent downloads illegal, but quite a few softwares on those sites contain some not-so-nice additions (malware, etc). So, no, your Mac would not protect you there - you need to protect yourself; it is called "responsible websurfing".
I only download software from reputable sites (i.e. the developer); I don't go to questionable sites at all (there is a great plugin for Firefox called "WOT" - it grades the sites from excellent to "poor reputation") - if you use Safari, check to see if it is available there. And I don't download "free" software or music or whatever that costs elsewhere - I pay for it.
And, here is another article you might want to look at:

I have partitioned my time capsule, but I can't get it to work as a Time Machine back up and permanent media server for both mac and PC. What format do I need to partition the drive to so that it works for both mac and windows and so that it will be visab

I have partitioned my time capsule, as I want part of it to act as a media server for both mac and windows. However I don't know what format that I need to partition it to. I also can't make it a permanently accesible drive. I want to restore the drive to the original format (which I don't know) and start again and re-partition the drive in a format that can be used for media by both mac and PC and for time machine back-ups and make the media part of it permanetly accesible so I can add and acccess my files.
Thanks

You are mixing up a couple of things here.
The TC drive cannot be partitioned without removing it.. did you do that?
If you partition it you must use a Mac disk utility and use the HFS+ ie standard Mac format. And GUID partition table not windows type.
You can select erase disk in the airport utility.. that will take the disk back to original format. No partitions. TC is deliberately not partitioned as it is not a media server.. it is a backup device for TM. Over time .. the disk will be filled with TM backups so you have a long history of file changes to your computer.
There is no media server in the TC.. it is merely disk storage.. you can serve files from it to a media device.. but the TC itself is dumb as dumb.
Now the actual format of the drive is irrelevant to the PC.. The TC offers SMB file services to the network. You can copy files to and from the TC as if it was a local disk without caring one iota about the format. The TC handles that .. it is not a local disk .. it is a network drive.
Although you cannot partition the TC. you can still copy files to it.. this does have implications for TM.. but as long as there is plenty of free space should not be a major issue.
You can create a disk image via the disk utility in a Mac.. and as stated you can create partitions if you do it on a Mac with the disk directly connected which means breaking warranty if any exists on the TC.

i need to know how to size a media server for 800-1200 user

Please clarify what you mean. Do you already have an iPhone? If so, and it came from the US and is (presumably) carrier locked, you're out of luck. NONE of the US carriers will unlock iPhones. There are no exceptions.
The unlocked iPhone 4S is not yet available in US Apple retail stores. All phones sold at retail in the US are currently carrier locked.

Flash Media Server for iPhone

Hi,
I am developing an app for iPhone/iPad. The client wants to show some realtime data in the app. Something like a chat application, where even if users don't do anything (flash uses no event), they can see what other users are doing in realtime.
I went through adobe site to see Flash media Server for mobile device. But I am confused on which version of the server should suit the type of app I am developing.
Thanks,
Salim

I'm more or less in the same boat. I've got the admin console
up. I am able to run the vodtest application locally pointing the

I can also load the html and swf file to my xp machine that
has access to the server via our internal network. (DNS isn't
configured yet) But the connectionFailed message appears when I try
to call the videos using rtmp://mclmedia/vod/sample.flv

Having trouble using my airport extreme as a media server for my ps3--can anyone help?

I'd like to set up my apple airport extreme with a USB seagate drive, and use the drive as a media server for my ps3. I have successfully connected my seagate drive to my airport extreme. I have successfully transferred a sample movie to this seagate drive. My laptop is easily able to find the drive and is able to play the sample film from the drive. How can I turn this drive into a media server? I'd like for my PS3 to be able to read movies off the network drive and play them. Help??

Welcome to the discussions, DanSwiggsD!
If you have a non-Apple device as your main router, unfortunately the AirPort Extreme has almost no chance of compatibility with your main router.
If you do have an Apple router as your main device, please post back with your model number and we'll let you know how your devices should be configured.
If you don't have an Apple device as your main router you have a few options to connect the xbox:
1) A pair of ethernet powerline adapters could be used if you did not want to run a regular ethernet cable from your main router to the xbox.
2) The new AirPort Express 802.11n model does have a feature called Proxy STA which should allow it to receive a wireless signal from any wireless router and allow the ethernet port to be enabled.

How can i get iTunes on my new lap top to look at my server for the music

I have a new lap top with vista ultimate. I can't get it to "see" the music stored on the server, so my iTUnes on the lap top is blank.
How can i get my iTunes on my new lap top to look at my server for the music?
someone mentioned creating an alias on the server and then dragging that onto the c: drive iTunes folder?
Can anyone help me?

They should be in your itunes media folder. Use an external hard drive and just copy that to your new computer. I'm sure there's an easier way like this one (iTunes>File>Library>Export Library>External Hard Drive) but I never tried it before. Anyways, once that's done, just simply authorize your itunes account to play music you bought on to the new computer.

Are there any apps like outlook but for the ipads?

are there any apps like outlook but for the ipads?
I want to manage my calendars appointments outlook is perfect but is it compatable for ipad

Yes Outlook is Compatible for iPAD, but you have to buy it as an additional APP. However you can download something called "iCloud Control Panel" for Windows Machine & Install it. This would integrate all your Windows Calendar in Outlook to iCloud.
Then enable iCloud in your iPad. All your contacts & calendars would sync automatically to your outlook on the windows machine. You can actuallu configure "Mail" app in the iPad to your exchange server.

SSRS 2008 Column Chart with Calculated Series (moving average) "formula error - there are not enough data points for the period" error

I have a simple column chart grouping on 1 value on the category axis. For simplicity's sake, we are plotting $ amounts grouping by Month on the category axis. I right click on the data series and choose "Add calculated series...". I choose moving average. I want to move the average over at least 2 periods.
When I run the report, I get the error "Formula error - there are not enough data points for the period". The way the report is, I never have a guaranteed number of categories (there could be one or there could be 5). When there is 2 or more, the chart renders fine, however, when there is only 1 value, instead of suppressing the moving average line, I get that error and the chart shows nothing.
I don't think this is entirely acceptable for our end users. At a minimum, I would think the moving average line would be suppressed instead of hiding the entire chart. Does anyone know of any workarounds or do I have to enter another ms. connect bug/design consideration.
Thank you,
Dan

I was having the same error while trying to plot a moving average across 7 days. The work around I found was rather simple.
If you right click your report in the solution explorer and select "View Code" it will give you the underlying XML of the report. Find the entry for the value of your calculated series and enter a formula to dynamically create your periods.
<ChartFormulaParameter Name="Period">
<Value>=IIf(Count(Fields!Calls.Value) >= 7 ,7, (Count(Fields!Calls.Value)))</Value>
</ChartFormulaParameter>
What I'm doing here is getting the row count of records returned in the chart. If the returned rows are greater than or equal to 7 (The amount of days I want the average) it will set the points to 7. If not, it will set the number to the amount of returned rows. So far this has worked great. I'm probably going to add more code to handle no records returned although in my case that shouldn't happen but, you never know.
A side note:
If you open the calculated series properties in the designer, you will notice the number of periods is set to "0". If you change this it will overwrite your custom formula in the XML.

Error targeting server for the EJB module while deploying the sample banking application

I am currently having a very difficult time attempting to deploy the
example banking application that I downloaded from the BEA website. I
have followed all of the steps in the "Hands On: Deploying the Sample
Banking Application" document, and I do fine until I get to the next to
last step. When I attempt to target the server for the EJB module, the
deployment process generates the error that I have included at the end
of this message.
I can get to the login.html page under "http://localhost:7001/banking/",
but after that I can't go further.
Any suggestions. BTW, in case you haven't figured it out, I'm brand new
to BEA WebLogic server.
Thanks in advance for any help you can offer.

The deployment process invokes javac internally to compile some generated classes.
Do you have javac installed and in the path?
