Tracfone is going to be launching their first Android Phone to the general retail outlet in December from what I heard. When you buy an AIRTIME CARD, They give you a seperate amount of minutes a seperate amount of texts and a seperate amount of data thats equal to the amount of the airtime on the card. I can actually make $80 last which doubles to 900 minutes , 900 texts and 900mb of data. When I had Virgin Mobile, I only used 100mb of data average per month streaming good quality audio.
Phone will be expensive up front but the savings will be good after awhile.

Need help picking out a printer...

I am trying to pick out a good printer. My laser (2600n) finally died. I'm looking for something with a low cost per page. I am in grad school and print out a lot of simple word docs, and class notes.
I'm not sure if any of the inkjets can give me a low cost per page. Any ideas on this? I don't need to do pictures and all of that, just allot of pages. Maybe around 500-1000 pages a month.

Hi,
my hp photosmart C6180 all in one works flawlessly with it plugged in to my time capsule all functions.
I used to have it set up using it wirelessly from the printer however for some reason after a update (i think) it stopped working & would not print so had to plug in to time capsule.

Need help Take out the null values from the ResultSet and Create a XML file

hi,
I wrote something which connects to Database and gets the ResultSet. From that ResultSet I am creating
a XML file. IN my program these are the main two classes Frame1 and ResultSetToXML. ResultSetToXML which
takes ResultSet & Boolean value in its constructor. I am passing the ResultSet and Boolean value
from Frame1 class. I am passing the boolean value to get the null values from the ResultSet and then add those
null values to XML File. When i run the program it works alright and adds the null and not null values to
the file. But when i pass the boolean value to take out the null values it would not take it out and adds
the null and not null values.
Please look at the code i am posing. I am showing step by step where its not adding the null values.
Any help is always appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Need Help picking out a machine

I'm looking for a desktop or laptop that's great for storage and HD DSLR Video editing
and will run adobe creative suite flawlessly
I edit in RAW files in Photoshop and lightroom
I also use Premiere, and After Effects open at the same time, jumping back and forth from each.
I currently edit with Canon7D footage
I also use over 10TB of storage and I'm looking to hook up 3 moniters soon
I'm not good when it comes to computer specs
I'm leaning more towards a laptop for portablitility
I know desktops are better cuz they're faster but at what point should I care about speed?
I'm thinking I should only worry about it unless I was editing with RED
These are the laptops I've found so far, haven't started my search for desktop yet
Which one of these laptop have desktop level peformance? and what specs should I select?
I want something that will be easy to upgrade later on
I plan to upgrade to CS6 and I read that users are reporting a minimum of 32GB memory is needed for best performance.
I don't want to give a budget because budget should not be the deciding factor in determining what I need.
I plan to edit multi cam projects down the road
I want a machine that could handle ANYTHING a client might toss at me.
I need something that's good to go right out of the box.
Please reccomend to me what I should get
Would it be better I get one custom built from a company like Sager?
If so please select the specs for me since I'm not a hardware guy.

I need help figuring out the best way to convert analogue video to DV so that I can edit it.

I have a large number of VHS and hi8 tapes that I want to convert to high quality DV.
I have a couple of options. One is an Elgado Video capture system.
The other is a Sony Digital Media Converter Box (DVMC-DA2).
I have tried a few of the less important tapes using the Elgado Video Capture system. It only allows you to convert to MPEG4 or H.268. It is not very good quality, especially for archival items or items I would later wish to edit.
I also have the Sony Digital Media Converter Box. I have heard that this is a superior option. So far, though, I have only been able to figure out how to import using an old version of iMovie HD. This makes a large imovie project file (approximately 6.18GB for a 28:30 clip vs a 348.9MB for an MPEG4 using delgado.
On top of that to convert the file from an iMovieProject file to DV is an additional step that so far looks like will take a half an hour at best.
Is there any way for me to import VHS/hi8 tapes using the Digital Media Converter Box to creat high quality DV files directly? If so, where can I find this info? What steps should I take and what are the settings I should use.
I have a lot of tapes so I want to figure out the right and most efficient way to do this because I will be repeating it a bunch of times and would hate to have to start over again.
I should also mention that I am using a Mid 2010 MacBook Pro, with OSX 10.9.1
I'm sorry in advance if this seems like an obvious question, but I have been googling and looking at tutorials on the site and just have not found the answer. There are a lot of ads for expensive low quality services to do this converting for you, so maybe the answer I am looking for is burried in all that advertising.
Thanks

Thanks Biggles and Gotz. I just couldint find capture, but now I can! (It was right under my nose too).
I'm trying it now and it appears to be working. Do you have any other recommendations for capturing from hi8 video source as far as setting go? I am using DV to capture. Are there any other settings I should pay attention to?
There is an extra line of video noise at the bottom, but when I google it, it sounds like it won't show on most standard tvs and if I want to fix it for online, that I should mask it after the fact vs scaling up the video.

RE: Need help on cornering the APO BI issue relevant to Planning area

HI Guys,
Iam loading historical data from my infocube to APO planning area...
MY Planning will be done in apo for weekly based..
for thatmy client has configuired Fisc VArnt which is
specific for 48 periods but not 52 periods...
My clinet will be planning in week which will will be like it starts from 07.01.2010,
14.01.2010,21.01.2010,31.01.2010..
but for testing purpose we are taking thisfrom a flat file andloaded into the infocube..
and created gen export datasource into scmapo system and loaded into cune from that cube iam feeding itto planning area..
when I execute the transaction /n/sapapo/tscube tha data copied was successful,
but the keyfigure amnt when I saw in the planning area Transaction /n.sapapo.sdp94which will be distributed across the week.
lets say my keyfigure values is 100 in the infocube for the jan month and week 1
and the value which i CAN SEE IN THE PLANNING AREA IS week1 25 week 2 25 week 3 25 and week 4 25
which will be 100 total for amonth,
but it should not be like that 100 should go into a particular week and should display 100 for that particular week..
I have calmonth calday, fiscper(posting period) which we have maintained in ob29 as 48 periods
when i derived calweek in the transformation iam getting 48 weeks but
when i try to load it to planning area iAM GETTING AN ERROR LIKECOMBINATION IS INCONSISTENT..with the calmonth
CODE WHICH i HAVE DERIVED CALWEEK FROM CALDAY:
DATA: lv_year(4) TYPE c,
lv_month(2) TYPE c,
lv_day(2) TYPE c,
lv_result(6) TYPE c,
v_poper TYPE poper.
lv_year = SOURCE_FIELDS-calday+0(4).
lv_month = SOURCE_FIELDS-calday+4(2).
lv_day = SOURCE_FIELDS-calday+6(2).
SELECT SINGLE poper FROM t009b INTO v_poper WHERE bumon = lv_month
AND butag = lv_day.
IF sy-subrc = 0.
CONCATENATE lv_year v_poper+1(2) INTO lv_result.
RESULT = lv_result.
CLEAR: lv_result.
ENDIF.
gURUS CAN ANY BODY THROW SOME LIGHT ON THIS.. iWILL BE HIGHLY OBLIGED
when i load the data from infocube to planning arae using /SAPAPO/TSCCUBE, the copy was succeeful.. But the issue is the keyfigure value is dis aggregating..
For ex If my sales hostory for week 1 001.2010 and for calmonth 01.2010 is 100, but it is disaggegating the values for whole month 4 weeks as 25,25,25,25 but it needs to b written as 100 for week 1.rather it should be aggregated on the highlevel as 100 for week 1.
Do I need to check any Charecterstics combination but all are consistent....
Even the periodicities in the planning area and infocube are consistent , since i am able to copy in to planning area..
I dont have calweek in my infocube i have derived calweek with logic provided in my earlier thread, but as of now iam going with calyear and calmonth, fisper3 (postig period), since 48 posting periods are maintained in the 0b29 or t009b tables.
whether I need to implement any oss notes for this, If I include calweek and calmonth and try to copy in to planning area Iam getting an error periodicities are not matching SAP Note 1408753 - /sapapo/tscube wrong error message
/SAPAPO/TSM 232
Regards
Balaram

thnx for replying the thread..
Where do I maintain this the PLANNING OBJECT STRUCTURE(STOR BKT Profile) and Planning Book-data View(Time Bkt Profile) with the time periodicities for Fisc Varnt and Posting period specificu2026
Can you pls elaborate on this Iam new to APO BW implementation part, Sine this is a burning issue
Actually what seeting I need to do there, I think infocube structures are good and copying data in to planning area..
I have calmonth and Fiscper3 for 48 periods in my infocube
also whether I need to maintain any calweek in the PLANNING OBJECT STRUCTURE(STOR BKT Profile) and Planning Book-data View(Time Bkt Profile)
when I checked in planning book keyfigure overview it is maintained there for 48 periods
For Planning Book-data View(Time Bkt Profile) how can we achieve this...
If you could throw some light more on this I have my APO Counter part I will ask him to change the master planning structure accordingly
Regards

Here is my intro:
I am new to this forum,
work in IT industry,
currently own a T42,
travel for work,
do NOT run any graphics intensive games,
do run multi-threaded applications, quite a many at the same time
seeking to buy a new T500
not really hands-on in terms of replacing components
do not change laptops every year or frequently
Planning to pick the below configuration for a T500:

Language pack: Language Pack US English for Windows 7
I appreciate any tips from the fellow forum members in customizing my new T500 configuration.

do run multi-threaded applications, quite a many at the same time
Processor: Intel Core 2 Duo Processor P8800 (2.66GHz 1066MHz 3MBL2)
You might be happier with the T9600. The speed difference is negligable but the extra 3MB cache makes a fairly substantial difference where running multiple applications at once, and especially switching between them is concerned. - You could also wait until early January if you're not in a hurry, the T510 line should be coming out around then and will have the new Core i5 processors with hyperthreading, which will also help multiple muli-threaded applications. (Then again, you never know, T510 could be a step down.)
Also, do you use smart cards? Very rarely have I seen anyone with any real use for them, you might be better off with the PC card slot instead.

Need Help Picking Out A Computer!

I need to get a new computer in the next week or two and it will be mainly to run logic studio. I have a small macbook, but i know it won't be able to handle the recording projects i want to do. if anyone can reccomend the most affordable solution (the best version of the imac or a 4core or 8core with minimal stuff in it?). As you can probably tell I'm not that great with all the technical aspects of recording, but I want to make sure I have something quality that I can record on. Is an imac enough to get by on or should i go for something bigger? Thanks for your time and advice in advance.

I'm using it to record high quality demos. Most of the time it will be just one track at a time being recorded i.e just a guitar and a click, laying down a vocal, etc. I will be using some beats/loops I have and I'd like to use autotune, some reverb, compressors, etc for mixing the songs. I will also be using the oxygen keyboard to do some synth pads. So really no intensive recording for drums i suppose since i don't have a room to record them so that leaves the recording process to be quite simple, but i just want to make sure the effects won't weigh me down. thanks again!

Need Help Picking Out A New Graphic Card

I have a nVidia GeForce 5200 graphics card in my PowerMac G5 1.6mhz (AGP) that I'd like to upgrade. Does anyone have some recommendations for a better card that doesn't cost more than $200. I'm wanting to get better performance when using programs like Final Cut Pro and Motion. The current card doesn't cut it very well.
Also, has anyone seen some side-by-side benchmarks for all the various cards. I'm having a hard time finding comparisons to my current card. I'm just curious as to how much faster a new card would be.
Thanks much,
Ray

$200 will be a problem. In order of speed, starting with the fastest:
ATI Radeon® X800 XT MAC Edition RoHS 256MB AGP
NVIDIA GeForce 6800 Ultra 256 MB DDL (AGP)
NVIDIA GeForce 6800 GT 256 MB DDL (AGP)
ATI Radeon™ 9800 Pro Mac Special Edition
ATI Radeon® 9600 Pro PC & MAC Edition 256MB

I just bought my MacBook Pro 13" and I tried to install an anti virus but then it went into a grey folder with a question mark I need help with restoring the iOS please

I need help taking out the grey folder with the question mark and I've try everything except the CD thing because my MacBook didn't come with one so I really need help please

What anti-virus software did you install? Although there's a lot of bad anti-virus software out there, no anti-virus software should cause such a problem. A gray screen with a flashing question mark on a folder means that no bootable system could be found, which means that the system was badly damaged or corrupt. Even installing bad software would not normally cause that, so either there was something badly wrong with the system already or the anti-virus software you tried to install was really, really bad!
As mende1 says, you need to reinstall the system at this point. After your system is back up and running, read my Mac Malware Guide. If, after reading that, you want anti-virus software, use one of the programms recommended in that guide.
