Mother of all simple questions

Hello everyone,
For years I was used to DVD-burning with Nero on a PC. Since I recently made the switch to MAC, I still have to find my way a bit...
I guess my question will be really simple, that is: how do I blank a rewritable DVD-disc using either Toast DVD Studio Pro?
Hope someone can answer this.
Best regards,

Already found the solution in Toast.

Mother of All Bonehead Questions---AirPort network. What can I do?

This is a very basic question. But, it's been driving me crazy.
Right now I have an AirPort Express plugged into my cable modem. This iMac is getting its internet through said AirPort.
My wife's eMac is plugged into the AP via a cable. That's how it gets internet though it really seems like the eMac has a slower connection. However, the wife doesn't surf much so it's not a big problem. (Though any words of wisdom would be nice.)
I suspect that if I knew what I was doing, the three problems below would go away.
-Our office computer (a Canon all-in-one jobber purchased last year) is hooked up to the eMac via another cable. As it stands now, I can't print anything from my computer without actually moving the printer cable.
-Also, we have one iTunes account. She buys her music and I buy mine. There doesn't seem to be anyway to share this music via the wireless network.
-Finally, our photo collections are slowly drifting apart. She has her film camera and I've got, you know, something from this century. Like the music and printer, I just suspect I should be able to share everything back and forth.
Thus far, the Apple.com website hasn't helped though I'm not very good at navigating it. I have a wireless network; it's working so Apple's happy.
But should I be able to do more?
Thanks,
Brian

Since the AirPort Express Base Station (AX) only has one Ethernet port, I'm a bit perplexed on how you were able to accomplish this. Are you sure that your base station is an AX? Please refer to the following link to verify: Identifying AirPort hardware

The Mother of all Easy Questions...I hope!

I just got Logic Studio recently giving me very little time to learn how to use it before needing to create accompaniments for a concert that's coming up. Having only ever used Garage Band (starting simple) in the past I am trying to figure out how to get my accomp's onto a CD. W/Garage Band you just export things to iTunes and burn them. Piece o-cake Is it that simple with Logic or do I have to convert Midi files to Audio files and do I have to use Wave Burner? Bottom line...My concert is Monday...I'm looking for either a reference to where I can find this info in the manuals (I've gone through the contents several times and can't find a heading that sounds pertinent to my needs)...or could someone please just tell me how to do it.
In a crunch....

In Logic, exporting files is called "bouncing." That is located under the file menu. In the bounce window there is an option to automatically load the file into iTunes once it is finished bouncing. Make sure that box is clicked, and there you go, just like garageband.
And no, you don't need to convert MIDI files. Logic includes all active, unmuted tracks as a part of your audio mixdown.

May be slightly simple question from a new Mac user: Why can't I quit safari? I cannot quit it from top menu bar neither to do it from dock? All other apps are working normally.

May be slightly simple question from a new Mac user: Why can't I quit safari? I cannot quit it from top menu bar neither to do it from dock? All other apps are working normally.

Or you can actived the right button on your magic mouse and click on they icon in the dock. then you select "stop" and it's out of your dock.

Really? All Adobe has for customer service is a forum? I have a simple question. Can't just contact someone? Are you that cheap?

really? All Adobe has for customer service is a forum? I have a simple question. Can't just contact someone? Are you that cheap?

Not to be critical, but in the time you have waited to find out how to contact Adobe you probably would have had your question answered by someone here on the forum. Many times people have been given bad information when they have found a way to contact Adobe. Much of the so-called technical support has been outsourced overseas. And the people manning the phones have no experience with Adobe products. So you can complain some more. Or, you can ask your question. It's your choice.

The Mother of All G4 Digital Audio Project?

Alright, my apologies right from the get-go: I'm new to this user-friendly and intuitive world of Macs. So if this post is long-winded and excessive, please excuse my bad manners and blame it on living in the world of PCs and M$ for far too long.
To start, the one thing I've found that is consistent no matter what computing world I've explored is the cost of upgrading... but first, let me explain a couple of things.
For one -- I'm finished with my PC. I'm fairly computer saavy, and have never bought a pre-built system in my life. My first computer I built in the 8th grade from spare parts and a Pentium 90 chip. Although I've enjoyed my time playing around and working with PCs in the past, I've recently become a father (and my wife is now at home 24/7). Suffice it to say I don't have much time to troubleshoot my PC as often as I use to, and with my wife using the computer more and more, I really would like to be able to offer her something intuitive and easy to use (unfortunately, this usually isn't a common description of anything related to the world of M$ and PCs).
Anyways, her entire extended family has been Mac based for awhile now, and I've grown more and more desirous of owning a Mac at home. Well, about 4 months ago I was given an old G4 Digital Audio for free. This gift, coupled with my increasing frustration with the PC, has lead me to contemplate ditching the PC (selling it off), and trying to fully pimp out the G4 to its maximum capacity. FOR CHEAP.
I realize that a Mac Mini would be pretty cheap and cost effective, or perhaps just selling the G4 and putting that money towards something else (like a Mac laptop) might make more sense... but I'm limited on a couple of fronts.
1) There is the issue of some money having already been invested into this G4.
2) I need to keep costs down, while also retaining the ability to expand (my PC currently has 3 HDDs at a total capacity of 800gb)... and it just doesn't seem feasible with a Mac Mini.
3) I already have the G4 -- and in my wife's eyes, expanding this rig is cheaper than buying a brand new Mac (this point is clearly debatable).
4) We really just need a solid system at home, easy for her to use, while having enough muscle for me to use the Adobe/Macromedia/Final Cut software packages.
So... I'd like to start pushing this G4 to its limits performance wise, while not breaking the bank unnecessarily. I've looked into upgrading the logic board and CPU, maxing out the system memory, purchasing a SATA controller board and new HDDs, and finally springing for a new video card. My question is this:
Can anyone shed some light on upgrade options that would suit my needs, without giving my wife reason to leave me?! For example, when looking to upgrade the G4 to a wireless system, I opted to purchase a Belkin Wireless G (F5D7000) instead of a official Airport card. It works flawlessly, is G compatible, and was only $25. Are there similar options when looking at SATA controller cards (the Sonnet cards are really pricey)? PC133 memory -- should I buy new or look for sticks in older PCs? Buy a pc video card and tweak it to work in a Mac, etc? Should I buy a single cpu upgrade, or spring for the pricey duals (is the performance benefit in OSX and the various design software packages worth it? - I've seen varied reports on this)? 1.6ghz vs. dual 1.4ghz??
Any help in this endeavor to build the Mother of All G4 Digital Audios would be wonderful. I know this post is lengthy, but I needed to vent some frustrations, and ask for a helping hand in this transition from PC to Mac! Thanks to all who've read this beast of a post -- and if anyone has anything to contribute (either suggestions or directions to some relatively cheap upgrades - new or used), it would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks again!

Load Balancing Directory Servers with Access Manager - Simple questions

Hi.
We are in the process of configuring 2 Access Manager instances (servers) accessing the same logical LDAP repository (comprising physically of two Directory Servers working together with Multi-Master Replication configured and tested) For doing this, we are following guide number 819-6258.
The guide uses BigIP load balancer for load balancing the directory servers. However, we intend to use Directory Proxy Server. Since we faced some (unresolved) issues last time that we used DPS, there are some simple questions that I would be very grateful to have answers to:
1. The guide, in section 3.2.10 (To configure Access Manager 1 with the Directory Server load balancer), talks about making changes at 4 places, and replacing the existing entry (hostname and port) with the load balancer's hostname and port (assuming that the load balancer has already been configured). It says that changes need not be made on Access Manager 2 since the LDAPs are in replication, and hence changes will be replicated at all places. However, the guide also states that changes have to be made in two files, namely AMConfig.properties, and the serverconfig.xml file. But these changes will not be reflected on Access Manager 2, since these files are local on each machine.
Question 1. Do changes have to be made in AMConfig.properties and serverconfig.xml files on the other machine hosting Access Manager 2?
Question 2: What is the purpose of putting these values here? Specifically, what is achieved by specifying the Directory server host and port in AMConfig.properties, as well as in serverconfig.xml?
Question 3. In the HTTP console, there is the option of specifying multiple primary LDAP servers, as well as multiple secondary LDAP servers. What is the purpose of these? Are secondary servers attempted when none of the list in the primary list are accessible? Also, if there are multiple entries in the primary server list, are they accessed in a round robin fashion (hereby providing rudimentary load balancing), or are other servers accessed only when the one mentioned first is not reachable etc.?
2. Since I do not have a load balancer setup yet, I tried the following deviation to the above, which, according to me, should have worked. If viewed in the HTTP console, LDAP / Membership / MSISDN and Policy configuration all pointed to the DS on host 1. When I changed all these to point to the directory server on host 2 (and made AMConfig.properties and serverconfig.xml on host 1 point to DS of host 2 as well), things should have worked fine, but apparently Access manager 1 could not be started. Error from Webserver:

In effect, AM on 1 did not start. On rolling back the changes, things again worked like previously.
Will be really grateful for any help / insight / experience on dealing with the above.
Thanks!

Update to the above, incase anyone is reading:
We setup a similar setup in Windows, and it worked. Here is a detailed account of what was done:
1. Host 1: Start installer, install automatically, chose Directory server, Directory Administration server, Directory Proxy server, Web server, Access Manager.
All installed, and worked fine. (AMConfig.properties, serverconfig.xml, and the info in LDAP service, all pointed to HOST1:389)
2. Host 2: Start installer, install automatically, chose Directory server, Directory Administration server, Directory Proxy server, Web server, Access Manager.
All installed, and worked fine. (AMConfig.properties, serverconfig.xml, and the info in LDAP service, all pointed to HOST2:389)
3. Host 1: Started replication. Set to Master
4. Host 2: Started replication. Set to Master
5. Host 1: Setup replication agreement to Host 2
6. Host 2: Setup replication agreement to Host 1
7. Initiated the remote replica from Host 1 ----> Host 2
Note that since default installation uses abc.....xyz as the encryption key, setting this to same was not an issue.
9. Started webserver for Host 1 and logged into AM as amadmin.
10. Added Host 2 FQDN in DNS Aliases / Realms
11. Added http://HOST2_FQDN:80 in the Platform server (instance) list.
12. Started Host 2 webserver. Logged in AM on Host 2, things worked fine.
At this stage, note the following:
a) Host 1:
AMConfig.properties file has
com.iplanet.am.directory.host=host1_FQDN
and
com.iplanet.am.directory.port=389
serverconfig.xml has:
<Server name="Server1" host="host1_FQDN" port="389" type="SIMPLE" />
b) Host 2:
AMConfig.properties file has
com.iplanet.am.directory.host=host2_FQDN
and
com.iplanet.am.directory.port=389
serverconfig.xml has:
<Server name="Server1" host="host2_FQDN" port="389" type="SIMPLE" />
c) If one logs into AM, and checks LDAP servers for LDAP / Policy Configuration / Membership etc services, they all contain Host2_FQDN:389 (which makes sense, since replica 2 was initialized from 1)
Returning back to the configuations:
13. On Host 1, login into the Admin server console of the Directory server. Navigate to the DPS, and confgure the following:
a) Network Group
b) LDAP servers
c) Load Balancing
d) Change Group
e) Action on-bind
f) Allow all actions (permit modification / deletion etc.).
g) any other configuations required - Am willing to give detailed steps if someone needs them to help me / themselves! :)
So now, we have DPS configured and running on Host1:489, and distributing load to DS1 and DS2 on a 50:50 basis.
14. Now, log into AM on Host 1, and instead of Host1_fqdn:389 (for DS) in the following places, specify Host1_fqdn:489 (for the DPS)--
LDAP Authentication
MSISDN server
Membership Service
Policy configuation.
Verified that this propagated to the Policy Configuration service and the LDAP authentication service that are already registered with the default organization.
15. Log out of AM. Following the documentation, modify directory.host and directory.port in AMConfig.properties to point to Host 1_FQDN and 489 respectively. Make this change in AMConfig.properties of both Host 1 as well as 2.
16. Edit serverconfig.xml on both hosts, and instead of they pointing to their local directory servers, point both to host1_FQDN:489
17. When you start the webserver, it will refuse to start. Will spew errors such as:

Success!
The server https-host1_FQDN has started up.
The server infact, didn't start up (nothing even listening on 58080).
However, if AMConfig.properties is left as it originally was, and only serverconfig.xml files were changed as mentioned above, web servers started fine, and things worked all okay. (Alright, except for some glitches when viewed in /amconsole. If /amserver/console is accessed, all is good. Can this mean that all is still not well? I am not sure).
So far so good. Now comes the sad part. When the same is done on Solaris 9, things dont work. You continue to get the above error, OR the following error, and the web server will refuse to start:
Differences in Solaris and Windows are as follows:
1. Windows hosts have 1 IP and hostname. Solaris hosts have 3 IPs and hostnames (for DS, DPS, and webserver).
No other difference from an architectural perspective.
Any help / insight on why the above is not working (and why the hell does the documentation seem so sketchy / insecure / incorrect).
Thanks a bunch!

A few simple questions from a new Iphone user

Hi a few simple questions, just got an iphone 2g - 2nd hand so not really sure what to expect. Anyway I guess my first question is about mine sometimes being a little slow - when I look at contacts and sometimes when sending a txt it slows down/freezes a little - normal?
Secondly Edge - I havent used it much but when I have its been painfully slow, is this normal - is it always really slow - cause I had read despite not being 3g Edge was actually pretty fast - what exactly is data roaming by the way? I mean I have been switched off as basically I dont wanna use the internet till next month when they change my contract to one I get unlimited access on - is that right?
Im having a problems syncing videos to it - it just wont sync some but will others and Im not sure why - theyre same file type and they used to sync to my ipod touch but now they wont for some reason
Cheers

I have the origina iPhone.
Downloaded 2.0, synced phone with everything UNchecked. Installed 2.0. Synced with all the options checked to reload my data. The iPhone has been great. Noticed a little lag when I opened contacts. Installed the new upgrade, and everything is back, no lag.
Edge is Edge and nothing more. It is slow compared to a strong 3g signal. But is liveable most of the time. Heavy traffic can slow it down to barely usable.
My four wheel drive club has a web site with a large photo section. I was standing out in the middle of parking lot in San Jose, Ca and showing a friend some photos. It opens up a page of small picts to choose from. Select a print and it enlarges, He was amazed at how fast they appeard. Especially given the quantity of photos.

Simple question .... how to add photos to the body of my EMAILS -Found 1000 results for How do I add photos to my emails for Thunderbird

Simple question - How do I add photos to the body of my emails . But instead of the answer - Found 1000 results for How do I add photos to my emails for Thunderbird. There are answers that don't apply at all to the question in anyway. Why does it have to be so hard to get a simple answer to a simple question?
Thunderbird is acting much like Microsoft, the every reason I dumping MS Live Mail.

First of all, much help for Thunderbird refers to menus which may not be visible. It would help you and us if you have your menus and toolbars visible.
http://chrisramsden.vfast.co.uk/13_Menus_in_Thunderbird.html
So, open a write window. Enable its menu and toolbar(s).
Now do you see an "Insert" option?
If not, you may be set to compose in plain text, which does not support embedded images.
'''[http://kb.mozillazine.org/Menu_differences_in_Windows,_Linux,_and_Mac Tools|Account Settings]|{select account}|Composition & Addressing''' and ensure "Compose messages in HTML format" is ticked. If it wasn't already ticked, go back to composing a message. Any better now?
Once you have HTML composition mode going, you can use '''Insert|Image''' or various permutations of copy-and-paste and drag-and-drop into your message body.

A very very very simple question

Hi guys,
I have a very simple question and standard but I cant find anywhere...
I have two dateTime variables, i need to calculate difference between this dates in days, thats it.
I tried all functions and tried without success a Java Embed task but I couldnt retrieve this objects as java.util.Date so I couldnt calculate exactly the difference in days like this pure java code:
(dataVencimento.getTime() - dataReferencia.getTime()) / 86400000L)
can you help me this?

Hi Jose
Just see if these alternate approaches works. I know there may be lot like this and you may be lucky to find out simple out of box solution itself. If you want to solve this issue and move ahead, gives these approaches a shot.
1. Create a very simple standalone WebService that takes 2 input date elements (can be of Date type or String type. If string type, convert to date in your java code). Create a simple operation like getDaysBetween(firstDate, secondDate). In the generated webservice impl class, use the java code apis (refer earlier link for usage), and get the difference. Return this value. NOW, invoke this WebService in your BPEL Process, and pass your 2 inputs (if the bpel payload elemetns are date object or string objects of date), and get output, and then use this output in your continuing bpel process.
2. This approach, I did a long back. When we insert any expression using XPath, in that editor window on bottom right side, we see many categories and for each category we see list of functions we can use, like for String, we can use concat etc. I vaguely remember reading somewhere, that we can add our own custom functions also in this section. So explore this direction and see if you can add your own function and then use that fucntion with your 2 input dates.
I have not given solution to your problem, but may be these directions can help you move ahead. Or something along these lines.
Thanks

HT4753 I have a very simple question: how do I view where Lion has autosaved my current version to (without the convoluted route of using finder)? In days gone by i'd simply use the save as function to see where it was being saved.

I have a very simple question: how do I view where Lion has autosaved my current version to (without the convoluted route of using finder)? In days gone by i'd simply use the save as function to see where it was being saved.

It's actually even easier than using Save As to see the full path to the currently open document. Just do a "Secondary click" on the document title in its window's title bar.
Like you, I relied upon Save As my whole life to check a file's location and considered it a must-have capability. Turns out it's even faster to use the single-click method to reveal the full path to the open document. It displays the entire path to the current document starting from the level of your Mac, and works for files stored on drives as well as iCloud.
If you're not sure how to do a secondary click, go into System Preferences, select Trackpad, Point & Click to find the current preference for secondary click on your Mac. If you happen to have a mouse with more than one button, it's probably the right button. As a trackpad user, I check the box to "Click or tap with two fingers," so a simple two finger tap on the title of an open document reveals its full path. This feature actually has been around for a very long time.
Note that this is not the same thing as the Autosave and Versions menu, which is exposed using a little drop down triangle to the right of the title. There is no visual clue for the presence of this feature - you just have to know it's there, probably because this feature goes all the way back to pre-OS X days.

Simple Question... general syntax

I am clearly new to Oracle. Simple question though. I have a Procedure that runs a fairly involved query. The procedure is called and parameters are passed into it. While I am testing, I just want to DECLARE my variables so it will run properly. I am trying the following:
DECLARE
Var1 Varchar(2) := TO_CHAR('11/01/2012', 'MM/DD/YYYY')
Var2 Varchar(2) := TO_CHAR('11/30/2012', 'MM/DD/YYYY')
BEGIN
Select....;
END;
My query runs fine if I cut it out and enter values for all the variables. Is this the proper syntax to stuff a value for testing? I get an error saying the Select statement needs an INTO statement when I do it this way.
Thanks,
Dave

As other have pointed out, you should be sure that you require a Varchar variable and not a Date.
If you need varchar, then you have to specify proper width to it. And syntactically correct; Each PL/SQL statement ends with a Semi-colon, that includes variable declarations as well.
It should be the following way:
DECLARE
Var1 Varchar(10) := '11/01/2012';
Var2 Varchar(10) := '11/30/2012';Width of VARCHAR should be specified in BYTES/CHAR(s); the above example is for width in Bytes assuming Single Byte Character set. Also as SB pointed out, you need to read the concepts guide for PL/SQL to understand it and then practice it.
Happy learning.

Simple question about telnet and characters

Hi all,
We've installed for the first time a SUN machine. So i think it's for a SUN expert a very simple question.
Normally when i type a special character it will be dispayed like " � " [alt+132]
But when i use a telnet session and i type "alt+132" i get a "d" and not "�".
Does someone know where i must start to find out how this works ?
Thanks you very much.
ESP

This is probably related to the locale your server is in. I don't remember the default locale a box is installed in if you don't specify. I think its "C". I use the UTF-8 or en_US.ISO8859-1 locales at home. At work, usually C but sometimes applications may require UTF-8. BEA Weblogic required this for a project a while back. This is defined in /etc/init/tz.

Simple question about flex and AS 3.0

Hi, this might sound like a simple question so I apologize...
I have both a copy of flex 2 and 3, and i want to simply code in AS
3.0 not mxml. I referred to the help of both flex 2 and 3, and all
i could come up with is "you can add dynamic behavior to your
documents using actionscript", which means to me, you only write
your functions in AS and create instances with mxml (...ugh).
personally, i find mxml to be ugly (mainly because it looks like
html to me), and i'd rather not use it. coming from programming in
an IDE in Java, it seems like it would be nicer to have something
similar, all the while having the power and cool features of flash.
I'm not fully educated in this matter so i understand that i could
be totally wrong.
i mean, if i have to code in mxml, i will. i'm a web
programmer for a living, and if a more experience programmer said
something like "if you don't code mxml in flex, you'll never get a
job coding in flex", i would trust the advice, and learn the ugly
code. :)
yes, i do have Flash cs3, it's great but it seems like a pain
to me the way you organize classes.... i've only seen a few
tutorials, ones that explain how you cannot simply import a custom
class, you have tell your movie to link to it, put it in the same
directory, or manually name the package, it's sort of confusing.
my main point here is that i'm very eager to start building
apps in straight AS 3.0 instead of using flash cs3 (for some
projects), and it would be cool to get some help or be pointed in
the right direction.
to simplify:
can i write AS 3.0 and only as 3.0 in flex 2 or 3? how? can
you link me to a tutorial? any advise?
thanks!

Hey William, thanks for the post. It's a great coincidence
because I'm reading that book as well. I'm about half way through
it, and I love it. I installed mxmlc on my linux box and am writing
pure AS 3 apps. I think that's the way to go, though I know it's
not for everybody.
My problem with mxml is that it has a weird syntax for
function calls, and it's not as 'intuitive' for a person like me,
who came from C++ and Java programming in the past. I like writing
programs in the C++ and Java style syntax, and since so many other
languages use a similar syntax, I don't see any reason to learn the
nuances of mxml, unless I was getting paid to do it. As far as I
can tell there is no benefit.
I hate using Flash to write flash apps as well, I feel like
they become messy and confusing, especially when trying to write an
OOP application. I only use it if I want to move an object in a
very specific way and can't do it with the Tween methods.
