I have been searching for best app for converting handwriting to text. Write pad seems great does the app allow direct entry into a template?

I have been searching for best app for converting handwriting to text on my ipad. Writepad by Phat seems great does the app allow direct entry into a template?

Writepad only works within the app itself - it does not allow you to write in another program. While it does allow you to save a document as a text or pdf file, it won't (I believe) let you open a file created outside of Writepad and work on it (except maybe text files - would have to investigate and see).

Hello
Im wondering that you want to upgrade to 8GB RAM... Normally 3 or 4GB should be more as enough for all applicaions at the moment.
Anyway, as Jayjay said its not possible to upgrade to 8GB. A friend of me has a Satellite A300 and the user manual says that it can upgrade to 4GB or 2GB (depending on the chipset). So if you have a PM965/GM965/RS690M chipset you can upgrade it to 4GB. Otherwise you can only use up to 2GB.
I have upgraded my Toshiba notebook with Kingston RAM. This is high quality RAM and has a good compatibility. I never had problems with such modules.
Check this!!
Bye

Best ram for macbook pro 2011?

I am thinking about upgrading my macbook pro 2011 with 8gb or 16gb (overkill?) of ram. Which is the best ram/bang for the buck?

I upgraded to Crucial 16 GB on my MB Pro 6 months ago and have never, ever, even once been sorry or less than amazed.
Of course, a Crucial 512 GB SSD does not hurt, either. They work together seamlessly. Nice Mac, nice Mac.
12 seconds to boot up from full Shut Down? Too cool ............................................................................... ..
Leonardosanti says.
PS FYI: My old Apple-supplied 500 GB hard drive is now separately enclosed and makes an excellent full backup. Using SuperDuper to clone, it is bootable albeit as a spinning disc hard drive it runs much slower. Had my old Snow Leopard system and files on it. Jumped to a clean install of Mountain Lion. Did all this myself, glad its done, whew, successfully. The Ram and the SSD are gems, like the Crucial support people.
PPS Yes, these were expensive improvements. Ouch but ... Worth it.

Best Ram for audio and video

This has probably been discussed here many times, I did a search and didn't really find an answer so here goes
What is the best ram to put in a G5 2.5 dual. does quality vary much from company to company. I have heard of a few horror stories about buying cheap ram and Apples pro apps (Logic) did not run properly. So for those of you that have been through it, let me know what your experiences are
Thanks

Hello! Buy guaranteed ram from a reputable company such as Crucial or OWC. I've got cheap Kingston ram for a compaq for my G4 running 10.3.9 with no problems but I like to tinker and I'll try anything once. If you're not a tinkerer stick to the qualifications previous. Tom

XL's is verified by anand to top at 2-3-3 on DDR466 so this would be how much of a oce on a 3700sandy at those timings.
Well the 3700 San Diego har a max multilplier equals 11 and you can use the lower ones also .
So you have more options than one to reach say you set a goal for 2700mhz assuming you have air cooling (2.7ghz seems to be what most aim for without extreme cooling)
HTT reference clock at 233 with memory index 200 times multiplier 11 gives 2530mhz on the cpu and 233mhz/466DDR on the memory .
To maintain same memory speed (around or below 233mhz) with higher cpu frequency you must use a divider by setting max memory speed to 166 etc and use a higher HTT clock reference .
E.g
HTT=270
Multiplier=10
Memory index=166
Gives CPU/12 divider
CPU is then 2.7ghz
Memory speed = cpuspeed/12 = 2700/12 = 225mhz or DDR450 .
Multilplier memory index dividers:
7x with 133 : cpu/11
8x with 133 : cpu/12
9X with 133 : cpu/14
10x with 133 : cpu/15
11x with 133 : cpu/17
7x with 166 : cpu/9
8x with 166 : cpu/10
9X with 166 : cpu/11
10x with 166 : cpu/12
11x with 166 : cpu/13
7x with 183 : cpu/8
8x with 183 : cpu/9
9X with 183 : cpu/10
10x with 183 : cpu/11
11x with 183 : cpu/13
7x with 200 : cpu/7
8x with 200 : cpu/8
9X with 200 : cpu/9
10x with 200 : cpu/10
11x with 200 : cpu/11
( with 200 you will se the divider is the same as multiplier , thats why some calls this 1:1 )
There are also some tables for the dividers made by orcar wu over at extremesystems in this thread:
http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/showthread.php?t=41595&highlight=a64+divider+table]
Using this calculation you can figure out your ram frequency before trying it in the bios .
E.g use 183 mem index/divider with cpu multiplier 10x with 2.7ghz as the target .
10 x 270 = 2700
memory will run at
2700/11 = ~ 245mhz or DDR490

Suggestion for buying RAM for my laptop T420

Looking for suggestion buying 8GB RAM for my latptop T420
I recently bought a used T420 which came with a 2GB from an online site. Machine woks all great with the current config. I would like to install 8GB RAM to make it faster as I have been installing lot of softwares on it.
Bit confused what to look for as products have keywords like DDR3 / PCI slots / 1333MHz, 1.5V .. not sure what to get.. can someone suggest what should I be getting ? If possible can you share a link ..
Thanks.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

This is from Toms Hardware;
"2x4GB allows to run in dual channel, but no, not 2 times faster, a single stick operates as a 64bit device in dual channel the two sticks operate together as a 128bit device which in reality provides for up to an appr 15% gain in performance vs single channel - the lower the latency at a given freq the better performance, however have to take into account the freq also a 1333/CL7 set can't touch a 2133/9 set in sheer performance + the higher the freq the higher the bandwidth so the more data can be dealt with in a single clock cycle"
However, the best choice for you now, since you're upgrading your RAM is to go Full Monty on it and get 2x 8GB paired, because if you only decide on getting one, then you might have a hard time finding a matching 2nd module later. But there would not be a significant performance hit you'd take from getting a different module, not anything you'd notice at least. It's just good practice to get them paired. My 2 cents.
ThinkPad W540 (20BG) - i7-4800MQ/24GB // ThinkPad T440s (20AQ) - i7-4600U/12GB
ThinkPad T440p (20AW) - i7-4800MQ/16GB // ThinkPad Helix (3698-6EU) - i5-3337U/4GB
ThinkPad W520 (4282-W4Q) - i7-2720QM/32GB // ThinkPad T400 (2767-W1C) - P9500/8GB
ThinkPad T61 (7665-CTO) - T7700/4GB // ThinkPad T60p (8741-C2G) - T7400/4GB

Export settings for best quality for pages with letters etc.

Hi, I am trying to make video of a musical piece, featuring the score of the piece with pages turning following the progression of the music. I made the video in Adobe After Effects CS5 and exported it so it would be lossless. The video itself is a .mov file and looks great when I view it in Quicktime, but when I import it into FCE the quality goes down a bit. I don't know if FCE is handling the clips correctly or if it's just for making it quicker to view. Any suggestions on export settings from FCE for best quality of a video of this nature, so that the notes are clearly readable.
Thanks in advance
Ps. It has to be in a format suitable for Youtube.

Under "Sequence" and in "Settings" and in the tab "Render Control" I have: Frame Rate: 100% Resolution: 100%.
If that is what you were referring to... but under the tab which is called RT and is located left of the timeline and left of the timecode. There I have checked : Safe RT, (Playback Video Quality) Dynamic, (Playback Frame Rate) High.
There might be a way to import the clip in better quality (so it doesn't downgrade the quality).
Was mostly trying to find out with the export but it might have something to do with this.
Thanks

(Request for:) Best practices for setting up a new Windows Server 2012 r2 Hyper-V Virtualized AD DC

Could you please share your best practices for setting up a new Windows Server 2012 r2 Hyper-V Virtualized AD DC, that will be running on a new WinSrv 2012 r2 host server. (This
will be for a brand new network setup, new forest, domain, etc.)
Specifically, your best practices regarding:
the sizing of non virtual and virtual volumes/partitions/drives,
the use of sysvol, logs, & data volumes/drives on hosts & guests,
RAID levels for the host and the guest(s),
IDE vs SCSI and drivers both non virtual and virtual and the booting there of,
disk caching settings on both host and guests.
Thanks so much for any information you can share.

A bit of non essential additional info:
We are small to midrange school district who, after close to 20 years on Novell networks, have decided to design and create a new Microsoft network and migrate all of our data and services
over to the new infrastructure . We are planning on rolling out 2012 r2 servers with as much Hyper-v virtualization as possible.
During the last few weeks we have been able to find most of the information we need to undergo this project, and most of the information was pretty solid with little ambiguity, except for
information regarding virtualizing the DCs, which as been a bit inconsistent.
Yes, we have read all the documents that most of these posts tend point to, but found some, if not most are still are referring to performing this under Srvr 2008 r2, and haven’t really
seen all that much on Srvr2012 r2.
We have read these and others:
Introduction to Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS) Virtualization (Level 100),
Virtualized Domain Controller Technical Reference (Level 300),
Virtualized Domain Controller Cloning Test Guidance for Application Vendors,
Support for using Hyper-V Replica for virtualized domain controllers.
Again, thanks for any information, best practices, cookie cutter or otherwise that you can share.
Chas.

Best RAM for 990FX-GD80

I need to buy 8GB low-profile DDR3 for my new 990FXA-GD80 and was wondering if anyone could advise which will work and overclock (i.e. give the best speeds) with this board.
There's some 1.35v Mushkin Blackline for £36
or 1.65v Corsair XMS3 for £30
or 1.5v Corsair XMS3 for £41.76
I've also seen some 1.5v Crucial Rendition, which would be the cheapest at £26 for 8GB, but I think I'd prefer something with some sort of cover/heat spreader http://www.ebuyer.com/291000-crucial-4gb-ddr3-1333mhz-rendition-memory-module-cl9-1-5v-rm51264ba1339-rm51264ba1339
All of these are 9-9-9-24 sticks
I realise the Rendition is 1333Mhz whilst the rest are 1600Mhz, but the tests I've seen don't seem to show much benefit and there's no guarantee anything would run at 1600Mhz with a Phenom II X4 (which only officially supports 1333Mhz) anyway. If I recall correctly, running 1333Mhz with tighter timings (i.e. tighter than 9-9-9-24) gives more of a boost, so if anyone knows if any of the above (or something else) will run at tighter timings, that would be useful information as well.

Yeah, Corsair 1.5V LP and Vengeance LP are compatible, so they're options, although I'm not sure there's any reason to believe they'll be any better than Mushkin, which seems to be well regarded, particularly because every stick is hand-tested. If I understand you both correctly, you've had good experience with the Corsair but never tried it on the 990FX-GD80?
Bernhard, no doubt you're right that the size and shape of some heat spreaders is just a marketing gimmick, but I don't see any harm in people buying parts they like the look of, as long as they also work well and it's not generally any more expensive with heatspreaders. As you suggest that heatspreaders may be needed at 1.65v (and above), even if I'm buying 1.5v 1600Mhz I may want to overclock that, which may involve bumping the voltage to 1.65v+, so it seems sensible to get something with heatspreaders unless you're SURE that you're never going to want to run it any faster than 1.5v (and even then, it can't hurt to have something helping to conduct the heat away from the chips).
One of the reasons I'm attracted to the Mushkin 1600Mhz 1.35v 996988 is because I'd imagine that gives me more room to overclock/overvolt it, compared to 1.5v 1600Mhz RAM. I'm a bit confused though, as I've been told on the Mushkin forum that I'd get better overclocking potential with the 996995, which seems to be the same specs except it's 1.5v!

Best Ram for MSI P965 Neo-F

Hi
I've a MSI P965 Neo-F and i want to know what is the best DDR 2 Memory for this motherboard(G-Skill,Crucial or OCZ?).
Actually i' ve Corsair DDR 2 667 Mhz Value Select.
Thanks^^

Quote from: stixen on 31-January-08, 22:12:39
Actually Corsair does'nt work good with my PC(no boot sometimes) so i don't want Corsair...
I'm not saying buy Corsair, I am telling you to buy WINTEC AMPO 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM 800. I have read all the horror stories about different ram and the Neo f. I installed 2gb [2x 1 gb] when i made the computer a couple years ago and just added the same thing 1 week ago and never a single problem. It still only reads as 3.25gb but that has been explained. Fast and stable memory with this board is hard to find, so trust me and buy this ram . it worked perfect for me so I don't see why it wouldn't work for you.

Looking for best plugins for Baritone Saxophone

Hi all!
I am doing some experimenting, and I had a real baritone saxophone recorded with a good microphone (8 to 12 inches from the sax). Now I cant find the right EQ-Reverb-etc. plugins that would make it right and natural. I can do that with other sax, or other brass, but the baritone seems tricky. I added some distortion and it helped. What is missing? when I get the highs right, the bottom is not enough... "bottom". And vice-versa. Is there any suggestion?
Thanks,
Daniel

honestly there are so many factors that go into applying the right effect that you aren't likely to find an answer here...
Primarily, without hearing what the audio you recorded actually sounded like.
It's a bit like saying you are feeling sick, but all the over the counter medications aren't working like they do for all the other times you are sick. You need someone to have someone listen to your track and make a recommendation based on that.

Looking for best practices for web delivery of Captivate tutorials

I have a set of ~50 Adobe Captivate projects that are a mix of UI tour, business process overviews, and how-tos for configuring those processes. These "tutorials" as we call them, vary in length, ~1-3 minutes for the UI tours and overviews, and 4-10 minutes for the how-tos. We use narration, which we recorded in Audacity on Windows and imported as MP3s into Captivate. We are not using menus or interactivity, and are not integrated with an LMS.
The goal is to deliver these tutorials in-context in the UI of our web-based enterprise application. Our customers typically have several thousand users and when they kick of a new cycle of a business process, have hundreds of simultaneous users logged in, many of whom may view our tutorials when they first log in. This means optimal network performance is critical.
We initially output the Captivate projects to SWF format and used the standard HTML page as a means for a simple, progressive download. Users said it took too long to download before the tutorials could start playing. We tried converting the SWFs to FLV and delivered them via a streaming server. Even after optimizing the data rate and codec's compression settings, users reported that the volume of data being streamed to simultaneous users is too great and is adversely affecting their networks.As an example of the file sizes I'm talking, we have a five about are 6 MB for a SWF and 8.7 MB for an FLV.
Can anyone suggest strategies for optimizing delivery of the SWF files, the FLVs, or another format all together? I would like to stay with Captivate because of our investment in training and the fact it is included with our licenses for the Technical Communications 2 Suite. We are using Captivate 4.0.1 build 1658 on Windows XP, and Sorenson Squeeze 6 for compressing the FLVs with the On2 VP6 codec.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Alan

The tutorial I mention in my example below is five minutes in length.

Looking for best app for converting my Powerpoint presentations to iPhone

Any good app. that converts a Powerpoint in to a form that is pretty darn close (including the audio, that is sometimes attached to a Powerpoint)? I tried exporting from Powerpoint to a .mov file, but that didn't appear to do the trick, then I had to exported that .mov to .m4v format for the iphone (or iTunes to accept) . Only problem was, after all that , there was no Audio in the result.. Would appreciate a simple converter that did it right! I welcome any suggestions

I have Air Share. When I open a powerpoint presentation the first time it usually closes and goes back to the main screen. When I try to open in a second time, the iphone freezes and after a few minutes reboots itself completely. I contacted Air Share about this and they said they thought that it was a problem in the iphone OS, and to try e-mailing the powerpoint file to myself and opening it from the e-mail. If it fails the same way, it is most likely a problem with the OS and not Air Share. I did that and had the same failures. That is what prompted me to contact Apple support and post in this discussion.
