More software questions

I have a new Macbook Pro with OSX and Windows XP installed on it. How do I install Linux on the computer and keep use of the other operating systems?
Thank you,
JeffV

Well I think that article is just what I was looking for, I skimmed through it for now and noticed one thing that bothers me, the words "This is not reversible (nondestructively)" Does that mean that it will change my computers hardware permanantly? I always want to have the option to make my computer the way it was the day I got it with no permanant damage or partitions, how will this work?
Thank You--JeffV

  • Seperate my midi keyboard with two or more software instruments

    How can I seperate my midi keyboard with two or more software instruments?

    Sorry I was not clear in my story. I do understand the concept of MIDI transferring info and not actual sound. The problem is, I record a string pad from my keyboard onto GB (with a USB connection) but then I open a new track to record along with it using an electric piano sound (also from my keyboard, not from GB's internal sound). But when I record the new E. Piano part onto the song, it automatically converts the original string pad part that has been recorded into an E. Piano sound.
    My question is this. Is GB not able to recognize two separate sounds or does it apply the same MIDI message to all software tracks? I find it odd that it would not let you record two or more different sounds onto the same song.

  • Can you burn dvd's in PSE 11 without purchasing more software?

    I just upgraded from PSE 7 because I had problems with sharing and burning dvd's, now it seems that I can not burn a cd or dvd without buying more software.  What am I missing here?

    The options in PSE have always been limited where it’s possible to create a data disk for viewing on computers or a back-up disk. Windows users can create a wmv file and then use that in the free Windows DVD maker to create a DVD which can be played on a TV but it’s a bit cumbersome. Ideally you should have purchased the combo Photoshop+Premiere Elements which is the best value, imho and which will give you lots of output options for DVD, Youtube, Vimeo, Facebook etc. I had a similar problem some years ago but managed to get my store to exchange PSE for PSE/PRE.

    Trying to connect Airport time capsule to my leopard iOS mac.  Downloaded software for time capsule for snow leapard/leopard but still says I need more software.  What do I need? I have a 10.5.7 iOS (Leopard).  It connects to wifi at speeds in the airport and has plenty of storage capacity and memory.

    If your Time Capsule looks like this..
    Please review the System Requirements to set up and administer the device.....

  • Every time I try to get on the ipod, it says I have to add more security questions, but none are listed, just two buttons that say submit.

    Every time I try to get on the Ipod games, it says I have to add more security questions, but no questions are listed, just two buttons that say "Submit" and places to put the answers to the unstated questions.  It also asks for a second email address.  It then proceeds to lock up.  Is this a scam of some sort.  There is nothing on the apple website about having additional security questions other than the one, or having a second email to operate the ipod.

    You need to contact Apple to get the questions reset. Click here, phone them, and ask for the Account Security team, or fill out and submit this form.
    Whichever method you use, you probably won't get a response until the 26th. If you absolutely must make a purchase before then, create a new Apple ID; you won't be able to transfer previous purchases or iTunes Store credit to it.

  • A Simpler, More Direct Question About Merge Joins

    This thread is related to Merge Joins Should Be Faster and Merge Join but asks a simpler, more direct question:
    Why does merge sort join choose to sort data that is already sorted? Here are some Explain query plans to illustrate my point.
    SQL> EXPLAIN PLAN FOR
      2  SELECT * FROM spoTriples ORDER BY s;
    PLAN_TABLE_OUTPUT
    |   0 | SELECT STATEMENT |              |   998K|    35M|  5311   (1)| 00:01:04|
    |   1 |  INDEX FULL SCAN | PKSPOTRIPLES |   998K|    35M|  5311   (1)| 00:01:04|
    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------Notice that the plan does not involve a SORT operation. This is because spoTriples is an Index-Organized Table on the primary key index of (s,p,o), which contains all of the columns in the table. This means the table is already sorted on s, which is the column in the ORDER BY clause. The optimizer is taking advantage of the fact that the table is already sorted, which it should.
    Now look at this plan:
    SQL> EXPLAIN PLAN FOR
      2  SELECT /*+ USE_MERGE(t1 t2) */ t1.s, t2.s
      3  FROM spoTriples t1, spoTriples t2
      4  WHERE t1.s = t2.s;
    Explained.
    PLAN_TABLE_OUTPUT
    |   0 | SELECT STATEMENT       |              |    11M|   297M|       | 13019 (6)| 00:02:37 |
    |   1 |  MERGE JOIN            |              |    11M|   297M|       | 13019 (6)| 00:02:37 |
    |   2 |   SORT JOIN            |              |   998K|    12M|    38M|  6389 (4)| 00:01:17 |
    |   3 |    INDEX FAST FULL SCAN| PKSPOTRIPLES |   998K|    12M|       |  1460 (3)| 00:00:18 |
    |*  4 |   SORT JOIN            |              |   998K|    12M|    38M|  6389 (4)| 00:01:17 |
    |   5 |    INDEX FAST FULL SCAN| PKSPOTRIPLES |   998K|    12M|       |  1460 (3)| 00:00:18 |
    Predicate Information (identified by operation id):
       4 - access("T1"."S"="T2"."S")
           filter("T1"."S"="T2"."S")I'm doing a self join on the column by which the table is sorted. I'm using a hint to force a merge join, but despite the data already being sorted, the optimizer insists on sorting each instance of spoTriples before doing the merge join. The sort should be unnecessary for the same reason that it is unnecessary in the case with the ORDER BY above.
    Is there anyway to make Oracle be aware of and take advantage of the fact that it doesn't have to sort this data before merge joining it?

    Question 3 and 4 have obvious answers
    3: Even if you could this is illegal
    4: if tnsping is not included in the client, tnsping is not included in the client, and there will be no replacement.
    Tnsping only establishes whether a listener is running and shouldn't be called from an application

  • RAID 5 - hardware vs software questions

    Hi all,
    Im thinking about building a RAID 5 server. Right now I have a Thecus 1U4500 (4x500GB RAID5) and I really like it but have outgrown it. And really I would rather build my own just for the fun of it.
    I would like 8-12 drives, and RAID 5 or 6.
    Here come the questions...
    The Thecus server is software RAID 5, I think 1.XX GHz celeron and 512MB RAM. It has decent performance (at least for what I use it for).
    So hardware RAID, expensive for 8-12 drives of RAID 5 or 6. Although it seems like it would be pretty easy to set up as long as there are appropriate Linux drivers. If I went with hardware RAID, how easy is it to expand the volume? I would have to use LVM to make this possible correct?
    Software RAID, I have read up a little on EVMS. I am a little confused about it though. Does EVMS just use plugins for its functions? Does it use some other system to control a RAID volume?
    I think I would run the OS (Arch) on a dedicated drive, perhaps a small flash disk or something, then just have my data on the RAID volume. If I do it this way, and I corrupt my OS somehow, will I be able to reinstall the OS and get my RAID functioning again? There is no software RAID that supports RAID 6 is there? Can hot spare be supported in RAID 5 on software?
    At the moment I am leaning towards software RAID... if nothing else just to see if I can do it. But you guys with experience, how much processing power would I be looking at needing for 8-12 drives? Or is that many just out of the question with software?
    Thanks!!

    Unless you get some very expensive hardware raid, use software. I don't need to say any more Jeff Garzik sums it up perfectly in this message and the included links. I know little about raid, but not many know more than Jeff about using it under linux.

  • Sorry. One More OnyX Question!

    Sorry. I just realized I had one more question pertaining to OnyX. When I'm on the Optimization page, it says to either "update" or "complete optimization" options for optimization. What do either of those options mean? I'm just a little scared to try any of those things if I don't know what they do.

    Rodriguez,
    If you value your data, you will sit down and understand what it means to backup your data. Lack of patience is no excuse. You'd have even more lack of patience with your machine when you lose it all. Keep at least two copies of everything at all times. Don't reformat your hard drive without making sure there are two external copies of your data. Methods of backing up vary by individual. If you are the kind who lacks patience, run a clone every night the weather is known to be good with Superduper. It has the least complicated interface. Use a couple external Firewire hard drives at least the size of the internal hard drive to make the clone. An iPod is not a backup, since software copying music from the iPod to the computer is unreliable.
    Upgrade only when you need to, and are aware that everything you have works with the update before you do upgrade. And repair permissions before and after with Applications -> Utilities -> Disk Utility.
    Upgrade and backup only when you have no peripherals attached other than Apple's own (i.e. keyboard, mouse). A display is not affected by updates or backups, as long as there is no USB or Firewire plugged into the display.

  • Is there any way I can recover deleted pictures from Camera Roll and iCloud? Please please help me. All of my precious pictures are gone that I can never EVER get back. I dont have any iCloud or Camera Roll backup; and my PC can't download more software.

    Hi everyone! I'm in need of extreme help. You see, today, two months ago I went out of the country from the United States of America. I took about 1500 pictures ONLY on my iPod touch. When I returned to the United States to my home, I accidentally deleted a little more than 100 pictures. Then, thinking I could get ALL of the pictures back at once, I restored my iPod touch from an iCloud backup I had a couple of days before. Instead of getting all of my pics back, they all got erased. The pictures that I did delete were deleted from Camera Roll AND Photo Stream (iCloud). Then, I was only able to get about 500 pictures back from iCloud. So about 1000 are still gone. When i did the restore, I thought all my pictures would be there, but they weren't and I couldn't possibly figure out why; because a restore from iTunes or iCloud is supposed to restore your device to the settings of the time you backed up your device. All of my other settings were just the way they were supposed tone for the time being, all except my pictures, which contained not one picture in any folder. So EVERYTHING from Cameta Roll was gone, and only about 500 pictures survived. I kept retoring and restoring, hoping they would come back but unfortunately they didn't. Then one time a restored again, I saw all of them back!! But then, within a blink of an eye, they disappeared as soon as I tapped on one picture. Then, I knew they were still in reach, but I just had to find them. Where could those 1000 pictures go? I looked up how to recover deleted photos, but I have to install a software. My computer CANNOT possibly take anymore software on it, my PC is very sensitive and I cannot delete anything off of it. Please please help me. What can I do to get my pictures back? They are memories that I can never EVER EVER get back. Thank you so much.

    Please please help me, if you know how.
