Is there a way to find out if the projector is used from cd or dvd?

I have a projector which includes options for user to permanently edit some texts. These functions will not work if the projector is used from cd or dvd, because texts can't be saved. Is there a way I could find out if the presentation is used from cd or dvd, so I could hide the editing features and show them only when the projector is used from a hard drive or usb memory stick.

code would like something like this*:
driveLetter = the first char of the moviePath
driveType = baDiskInfo(driveLetter, "type")
if driveType = "CD-ROM" or driveType = "DVD-ROM" then
-- do your stuff here
end if
*modify to fit your project
You could also use FileXtra's fxObj.fx_VolumeIsCDROM() too:
driveLetter = the first char of the moviePath
fxObj = xtra("FileXtra4").new()
isCDDrive = fxObj.fx_VolumeIsCDROM(driveLetter)
fxObj = 0
if isCDDrive then
-- do your stuff here
end if

Is there a way to find out, whether the student or the full version is currently installed?

Hi everyone!
First of all: Merry Christmas!
A longer text with some background information is following. My question will be at the bottom.
My computer is a good boy and it didn't disappoint me for quite a while now.
I had once installed the student version (german) of CS3 extended on this one.
Then, after having removed the student version some time later when needed, I have re-installed the full version.
This time, however, it was in english and it wasn't the extended version either.
After the software has accepted my serial id, I was quite content. It felt much better in english and I was able to use photoshop to the fullest once again.
Today, I have gotten my hands on the upgrade version to CS5 (again in english and not extended, but that's all I need).
After the installation guide has told me, that there are no programmes installed which are compatible to the upgrade, I was confused.
I have realised that my current CS3 version was still the extended one, even though it was in english and it wasn't the student version either (at least, that's what I believe, because there were no "activate"/"deactivate" buttons in the help menu where it used to be in the german student version before).
So while doing an upgrade to CS5, I had to chose CS3 extended from the list and had to type in the old student's version serial number.
Nothing else worked, even though I've tried to chose the CS3 version in combination with the other serial number, which belong to the full version both.
Now to my question:
Is there a way to find out, whether the student or the full version is currently installed?
(Other than looking at the box of course, that would be quite trivial. I am worried if the installation guide hasn't removed all components thoroughly.)
Thanks in advance,
Happy holidays,
Jeff

Thanks for the reply!
That's what I thought as well. However, that wasn't the case. Whether it's the educational or the full version, both splash screens looked the same.
At least for the CS3 version.I know how I was quite confused about that in the past when I'd realised that.
The CS5 splash screen didn't say anything about a student version, but I was able to deactivate the application. I thought this was possible for the student version only.
I've tried using the adobe clean program like suggested, but that didn't work either. The installation guide of CS5 still didn't bother asking for an older version.
I.e.: It still used the educational serial number from before.
After reinstalling windows on my pc, the installation guide finally wanted to know about my CS3 again.
However, it told me, that the serial number of the full version in combination with CS3 is not valid. Just like it did before.
Maybe it's because the full version was made in the USA and the CS5 upgrade version was made in Austria - Ireland?
That would be really frustrating.

Is there a way to find out how much data was used over the lifetime of my phone (cumulative cellular and wifi)?

I was just curious

Given that the phone doesn't track how much data is used over WiFi, no. And cellular data usage can be reset.

What is iOS 5 ?
http://support.apple.com/kb/dl1521
And does my iPhone 4 as that?
Settings>>General>>About>>Version
(Used my iTouch as example)
And if it deos how can I see the apps that I've deleted ?
App Store>>Updates>>Purchased
Scroll through the list of apps that your purchased, and if you remember the apps that you delete, the search will be a lot easier.
If you don't have iOS 5, you can update your iPhone and since you have an iPhone 4, you can only go up to iOS 6.1.3

Hope all this helps.

Check the model ID in the System Information
Download and use MacTracker to determine the year (and every other thing about the machine you could ever want to know).

Is there a way to find out where iMessages are being sent from? I've received messages from an unknown email that are offensive and considered to be harassment.

Is there a way to find out where iMessages are coming from? I've contacted security personnel at my school and I'm brig harassed. I just want it to stop.

'''Here is an update to my former response.'''
Here is a safe way to look at an email which you think is suspicious:
* right click on the message and select 'Save As'
* the file name will be the email subject followed by an extension of .eml
* store it in a folder you can find easily, such as your Documents
* using your file explorer, right click on the file name and open it with Notepad or a similar text editor (NOT Thunderbird!)
* even though the format is not easy to read, you should be able to see who sent it to you, and also read the message text.
Since you are looking at the message in a text editor, there is no chance a link can activate something bad. I have used this method many times, and have found several spoofs of email names of my friends.

Is there a way to find out if the sap-language parameter was supplied?

Hi all,
I wanted to find out if the url parameter sap-language was supplied or not. I thought that I can read that with request->get_form_field, but the system automatically applies the new language and the parameter is not accessible this way. Is there any other way to check that? I could try it using javascript on the layout, check the url from the javascript and then using self-submitting form transfer that to the backend, but maybe there is some nicer solution?
Thanks in advance.

Is there a way to find out ALL the files an FCP project uses?

Okay. Firstly, I'm an idiot. I don't know why, but at the START of the project, I didn't think I'd end up with so many little tiny bits and pieces... so I didn't really plan the organization of this thing. (My next project will be meticulously organized, I can assure you.)
But, here I am, and here's my problem.
I've got a pretty big project I've been working on for six months that's probably taking up 250 GB of space on my computer (spread over two 350 GB hard drives). It includes 125 GB of source footage, hundreds of little Motion projects (including various "drafts" of each one), PSD images, LiveType files, an assortment of Soundtrack Pro files, AIFFs, exported clips from all the various cuts of the project, etc etc etc. Stupidly, I always saved things in different folders, using a system and thought process that "seemed like a good idea at the time".
Problem is, now that I'm (nearly) finished with the thing, I need to archive the "final cut", and all it's many source files (such as Motion projects, which may need to be edited later if this project gets sold into foreign markets, etc).
Suddenly, I realize how important Organizational Skills really are.
But is there a way (simple or not-so-simple) to find out EVERY SINGLE FILE that's referenced on a timeline? (I have lots of stuff imported into the project that I know isn't used on any timeline, but I'm afraid of moving or deleting things for fear of never finding it again.)
I'd love to get some sort of "printout" (a list or something) of every single file.
The idea is, I would then move ONLY those files to a newly-organized filing system, which could be easily archived/backed-up. It would also be great to keep the RENDER files, too, so that I won't have to re-render everything when I pull it out of cold storage.
Am I dreaming an impossible dream?
Any ideas?
Thanks!

I'd love to get some sort of "printout" (a list or
something) of every single file.
There is, go to browser and cntrl click on any one of the columns,
and select - show/source. A new column named "source" will pop up and will show where everything "lives". Click on the header at the top and it will justify the column as well. You'll notice this won't show anything for your seq.'s. of course, but will show stills/audio/motion files...
Once you have the new column, you can drag it next to the "name" column and get a grab of it and print it if you like, or whatever.
If you want to do this for just 1 seq., then can create a new bin and double click it to open it. Cntrl-A (select all) in your main seq. and just drag all into the new bin. You will see only what's in that seq. with the "source" column right next to it.
From what I've read, you seem to get the MM thing and it's obviously what you'll need to do to archive as the guys said. But what your missing is a file path system to where everything resides.
Hope this helps and that I've read you properly,
Peace

Is there any way to find out all songs that I purchased from the iTunes Store?

I have purchased many songs from iTunes Store, and I was wondering if there was a way to find which songs I would need to authorize, so I don't bother copying them to my work computer. I can tell if I do this one at a time, but I have over 10,000 songs to go through.do
Thanks!

Is there a way to find out what the exe is?

I just got my new macbook pro, and copied, uploaded some old cd's of mine.
problem is, some are videos some are photos and some are documents.
I managed to title a .jpg on some photos successfully, and they worked. Now I can view them and I saved them that way.
But the rest, man...(sigh) this is a part of cyber world that I am not used to.
I don't know weather to title stuff .gif, .sit, .doc...I mean really. Im shooting in the dark over here.
there are so many .whatever's- how in the heck can you know what to do with these files?
Is there a way to discern what type of file it is. Besides just a windows exe file that is obviously not recognized by mac?
thanks everyone.
-novice.

If the files were created on a Mac they should have their signature information, even without the filename extension.
If you have files that don't have any signature information you can try using the command line utility file:
file /path/to/some.file
It will look at the file and try to identify it's type. From there you should be able to discern what kind of document it is.

Is there any way to find out what the Ext Id is that is assigned to CRM records

Whilst there is a lot of confusion as to when and where you use this field and what is the unique record key for some, I have understood that however what I am wanting to find is excatly what is the external ID that was assigned to the CRM record when it was first imported. I can't find any report or other means for getting this info and without it I can't re-import record updates.
A method for resolving the issues with CRM updates would simply be if the CRM module provided the following
An export facility as in the Web Apps and Products to simply export the full record with all fields in the same order as required for import
The ability to attach to that export a slected extended CRM layout
That he export record also included as the first field the BC CRM ID (this is the one thing we know to be unique no matter what)
With the above and changes to the import to reference the CRM ID (for existing records) we would indeed be able to apply email address updates to existing records via batch import.
This seems to be a rather obviuous and simple solution unless I am overlooking something. At present the CRM export / import functions are a serious weakness for large database updates and not having the ability to also import bulk deletes is a major drawback on our ability to maintain and manage the CRM integrity. As it stands, if you have been hit by spammers and have hundreds or thousands of delinquent entries in yoru CRM then you have no choice but to leave them in place and if you used a form that by default subscribes them to your mail list - I gave up on that.
My last comment relates to the data pass that is done as part of the import - is it not possible to report on all records that will fail to be imported instead of one at a time? If you want to reduce the load on teh system having a single pass to list all errors and list this so you can read it before the error message fades before your eyes would not be an unreasoonable request. I loath facing imports for this very reason.
Please BC - when are you going to get around to correcting this major shortcoming in a critical aspect of the solutions we deliver.
