Is there any side effect despite in 'sharing' when I change the computername in os x 10.6

Hi,
I'm not sure about any side effect if I change my computer's name (currently like 'first name last name MacbookPro'), e.g will time machine have any trouble with that? Would like to change to a shorter name.
Computer is in use since 2 years and everything works fine. Just tried to integrate sonos music system with my mac and have trouble sharing iTunes library with sonos. Therefore sonos support asked me to shorten the computers name and see if that helps.
To me seems more sth like permission problem on one of the folders above iTunes. Is there any logfile I could check to find out about access to files which permission settings don't allow?
Tia and kind regards
Manu

Any side effects on JRE/JVM when setting Desktop Heap Size?

In Win2003 we experience a limitation of about 70 java.exe's. By setting the Desktop Heap Size we can increase this limit to more than double. Link showing more info on Desktop Heap Size:
http://blogs.msdn.com/ntdebugging/archive/2007/01/04/desktop-heap-overview.aspx
Does this give any side effects to the running java.exe's?
Has anyone experimented with this?

Hi Bobo
It seems to be a bit small. I have close the same configuration like you and set the
maxMemory to 512 MB/server

Hello,
I have a customer that is running WLS 6.1 sp4 and they have set the JVM max memory
value to 64M on a Sun Solaris box with over 6 meg of memory and 4 CPUs.
We have an application on it that makes use of connection pooling, session objects,
over 30+ stateless session beans, and has 100-200 users connected to the application
for 4-8 hours at a time.
Does this value of 64M make any sense??? This is the default out of the box setting
that we have setup on our development PCs.
Also as a side note, can any point me in the direction of any formulas for the
calculation of this number and also the number of execute threads.
Thank you,

Using Field Blend plug-in, any side effects?

Cutting an HDV show with lots of action. Camera may have had 'sharpen' mode set too high, but end result is that the action scenes show way too much of the 'interlace lines' in playback on an LCD screen. Distractingly so.
I used the Field Blend plug-in from Joe's Filters on the whole show, and get a very smooth looking clean result. No interlace lines on LCD screen.
But! What I'm wondering is: will this have a negative effect when I output the HDV Quicktime master to MPEG2 and DVD?
Is there some side-effect one has to deal with when using the Field Blend plug-in?
All ears, thank you,
Ben

Are there any side effects of munging two fields
together? Yes. You are about halving your resolution.
The show works fine on an NTSC monitor. But the client will be showing it on a lovely new laptop, and also projecting it in a large cinema theatre.
The thing that puzzles me Patrick, is that I play both versions on a 23 inch Apple HD Cinema monitor and I cannot for the life of me see any difference, other than the 'blended' version is not full of interlace artefacting. I KNOW it's SUPPOSED to be less resolution. But I can't SEE any difference. Maybe on a 35 foot theatre screen?
Maybe Joe is doing something special with his plug-in?

Hey guyz.. i wanna ask if i get an updated version from itunes when i plug my iPhone into the Pc, i get a letter tells me that there is an update for your iPhone ... i wanna ask is it safe to download ?? and does it make any side effects on longTerm using

It is safe to download if your phone is not jailbroken. Before you download it, however, take some precautions:
Reboot your computer
Disable your antivirus and firewall
Connect the phone cable to a USB port directly on the computer, not a hub
Before updating right click on the name of the phone in iTunes and choose "Backup"
When you are given the choice choose "Download only", not "Download and Update"
After the download completes successfully click the Update button to install it.
Most of these steps are just being overly cautious, as most people ignore them and have no problems. But occasionally the extra steps save grief.

Is there any advanced feature of Adobe Flash released to lower the page loading slow down rate...?

Any advanced feature of Adobe Flash to embed in my site
Hi! My site is basically based on providing share market tips covering finance market. The site was recently migrated from the old look to a new look for a professional view. To make the home page wear a professional look, I am displaying a video like screen for news headlines organising images into jquery effect. But what I experienced so far this jquery effect is slowing down the home page at the time of loading (plz refer the screen shot below). You can check it at Puntercalls Homepage . I'm sure if I embed the normal flash feature in palce of this jquery, it must slow down than the former.
So what I exactly want to know is if there is any advanced feature of Adobe Flash by which the homepage won't slow down while loading.
Kind suggestions are greatly appreciated in advance!
The screenshot of slower loading as the result of jquery effect:

If you just want to change the way that the photo section works, then, it is most likely that a Flash version of the photo display might be smoother and faster to play than the jquery version that you are now using. Its difficult to guarantee a result. You have 10 css libraries and 8 js libraries that are called along with a good bit of inline js that is running on this site. So it will be difficult to say how quickly or smoothly a Flash .swf file will download and play.
I'm guessing that Flash will be faster, but then I also think that going door to door and handing people a print of the photo would be faster than the jquery file that is running. You may want to look at the possible interference that you have on the current site between the various js and css files that are trying to display the content.

Reset the device, restart the device, try downloading any other app.
All of these are basic steps that could have been found by a simple search of the forums as a resolution for the issue.

Is there any way to emulate "nounix" option when mounting Samba fileshares?

I need to mount an SMB file share from a Linux server that I do not control. The server was recently upgraded to the new version of samba. With that change, the server now supports samba's new "unix extensions". The problem with this is when the file share is mounted on OS X, symbolic links show up broken because their paths are no longer valid (all details were previously posted in this thread: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=8001291). Our environment makes heavy use of symbolic links, so they really need to work transparently.
I know the solution in the previous thread was to disable unix extensions on the server. That is not possible for me in this case. A little googling shows that some linux users (primarily Ubuntu it seems) have gotten around this by adding a "nounix" option to the mount command on the command line. Is there anything comparable in Leopard? Is there a key/value pair that is equivalent to "nounix" that I could use in nsmb.conf? Note that the share shows up just fine in windows because it is not capable of these wonderful new "unix extensions".
Thanks!

Is there any way to deauthorize 2 computers when I only have 3 authorized?
No.
I am worried there are other PC's I have used at friends houses which are authorized to play my content, which I dno't want.
Contrary to what it seems, Deauthorize all will not stop their iTunes from playing any of your purchases which may be on their computers.

I had backed-up my iPhone and when I try to restore it it says that the back-up is corrupt or the iPhone is not compatible. I had a bunch of pictures that I need from that restore. Is there any way to get them back? I did the back-up to my Macbook

If the backup is corrupt, there is nothing that can be done.
For what reason did you choose to not copy the pictures off the device to a computer prior to attemping an update or whatever caused the need to restore? iPhones are not intended as sole storage of any media.
