Networking basics: any vids/tutorials out there?

Hello everyone,
I'm very sorry for this really basic question. I dont want to waste anyones time explaining networking to me as I'm sure this has already be done somewhere; thus my request for tutorials or videos that show how this is done. I've heard its really easy in OSX, so I'm already kind of embarrassed asking this.
Anyone have any good links for setting up a file sharing network? Our family has 6 macs, and all hooked up to the internet via airport. What we are looking to do though is to be able to have access to each others computers in order to quickly share files, etc. Also, since I'm asking, is it possible to remote control a mac from another mac? i.e. open a program on our mac mini from my G5? I know this is possible in Leopard, but am unsure if this is possible in Tiger.
Once again, I'm sorry for asking such a simple question, but I'm sure once I get pointed in the right direction I'll put the tai on the donkey! Thanks!!
p.s. are there any security measures I need to take to make sure the network is only accessable by our family, and not others? Thanks again!

Well, it's pretty easy from the gitgo, it's almost set up now without you doig anything!

But really, all you need to do is go to the Sharing Pref Pane on each, enable Personal File Sharing on each, wait a bit, then go to Finder>go menu>Connect to Servers, then either Browse or simply enter...
afp"//ip.of.other.mac
That should get you to an empty shared folder & such.
if you login into Mac #2 with Mac%2's Username & PW, you'd get full access.
For more precise control try Sharepoints...

Any good workflow tutorials out there for those moving from iPhoto Aperture

Any good workflow tutorials out there for those moving from iPhoto to Aperture 3?
Especially those that deal with using a laptop and off-line storage of photos.
Cheers, Andrew.

There is no reason to not port a number from another provider (unless leaving a contract early and being charged the ETF) for if one does decide to switch back to their previous provider within the first 30 days after making the switch, the previous provider will take one back with welcome arms and the same phone number can be used this way.
Your way required getting a new phone number which can't be changed or potted after the fact for single line account.

Help! Safari keeps giving me a grey screen. I can't click on any search items. Any troubleshooting ideas out there?

Help! Safari keeps giving me a grey screen. I can't click on any search items. Any troubleshooting ideas out there?

Try clearing Safari's cache : Settings > Safari > Clear Cookies And Data (Clear Cache on iOS 4) and also Clear History
If that doesn't work then try closing Safari completely and then re-open it : from the home screen (i.e. not with Safari 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Safari app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
A third option is a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

Is there any Deaf Developer out there?

Here is a Deaf guy that would like to meet any Deaf Developers out there and talk about what apps to improve education on Deaf history and cultures thank you

Yes i have
But can that be used for Developing the FORMS/REPORTS Applications
The One that i Used was trial version for some pl/sql Development, No, to develop Developer Forms and Reports you have to use Oracle Forms and Reports Developer. Alternatively you could use Designer for CASE forms development and Discoverer for reports, but these are completely different tools/processes.
There are no third party Forms and Reports tools that will generate Oracle forms.

Caps defines shouting! "ARE THERE ANY APPLE TECS OUT THERE"

Yep I'm really peed,
So far I have dropped four threads on this forum regarding basically the same problem and got 0 yes 0 responses, It's funny, on other apple forums there's always a response this really begins with an S and finishes with an S, and sound similar to duck.
Jan 21st Played yesterday black today. Feb 28th Intermittent white outs march 8th Movie can't be saved now today another white out 85%.
So, what happened this time? I created photoshop psd file in photoshop cs, file sizes were 774 px x 480 px at 200 resolution I animated said files in Image ready and saved as QT's I also used Norcross morphx and saved those as QT's.
Inspector read; yesterday a mini mov Today final mov
Format: Apple photo-jpeg 774x480 mil H.2.64, 774x480, mil
FPS: 20 9.26
playing FPS: (available while playing) same
Data size: whatever size the file was 247.51 MB
Dat rate: 6079.93kbits/s 8.17 mbits/s
Currant time 0:00:00:00.00 0:00:02:44.60
Duration: 0:00:00:01.50 0.00:03:46.29
Normal size 774x480 pix same
currant size: 774x480 pix same
Prior to saving I checked properties-resources on final movie.
Older unworkable movie Today's
video track 1 of 6 will not enable video track 2of 2 will not enable
is a j-peg is a j-peg
others R mix peg/Ap-pix-vid other is a H.264.
On the past saved movies that I had problems w, in properties/resources/source it shows many sources of the mini movies that were used to create the final large movie, when I click them, they open as the mini they are, except for one which titles as unavailable.
On todays movie it shows movie title source (won't open) and one other which opens as only one of the mini's I used, the others are not there.
Yesterday I cleaned out all other movies players Avi/real etc I also dumped QT ran disc utility. I then re-downloaded QT , Perian and Realplayer redid all my art created new mini's made my animation movie, it came out great and today I have %^%.
My first question is does
QT work w/photoshop/psd's that are opened in Image ready converted to animations then saved as QT"s
2. Doe's QT have problems w/200 resolution (which it converts to 72 and make the screen larger)
3. Does QT work w/Norkoss morphx morphs that are saved as QT's
3. Is there a problem w/saved morphs in QT and saved Adobe files in QT.
4. FileXaminer could not find files titled unavailable.
My reality is that as a process adobe/QT seems great, as a finished product, It's been "a highway to ****". I was going to give my QT to my kids to play around with (what was I thinking)
I guess the real question is, does anyone out there have a clue what's wrong with my process or what I am doing wrong, and why is my hair getting white.
This is really a last ditch effort!!!!!!!!

I hope I am not driving you crazy, I still have a couple more questions to enable me with a better understanding and also to understand if it is possible for me to get a better pic than a gif.
a. when I open swf files in swf player and convert them to images they save as tiffs, as you mentioned w/MorphX that also saves as tiffs.
b. The psd's when I compared size to a mov showed psd 10.1 MB mov 480kb big difference as they are 3 sec files. I took the same psd and saved it as a tiff 10.1 MB.
So, the problem here as I understand it is that the file size per second is to big as in the MorphX 2.3MB per sec but, if I take the 20 layers of the Morphx as tiffs/psd's and each one is a separate file I could import them directly through image sequence to QT. What I find confusing is they are still the same MB size per second.
You know what Kirk, if that's what it takes then that is really to much time and effort to try and get a decent animation I can't even begin to think of how many flat files I would have to create for a four minute animation. Actually I can 4 mins = 240 secs x 20 files = 4800 aahhh
thanks for your help anyway mate.

Any sales professionals out there know how to maximize 4S use in the field?

Hi All :-)
I am a B2B (business to business) sales professional and I frequently spend the entire day in the field visiting clients & prospects and then when I get home at 6pm I spend the rest of the evening entering all of my notes into a excel spreadsheet. I have the excel spreadsheet on "Dropbox" and I can pull it up using my Dropbox app in the field but I cant add any notes to it via my iPhone 4S. I have downloaded several free app's for Excel and none let me edit the spreadsheet. I don't mind paying for the right app to do this but I REALLY NEED TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO DO THIS, or figure out a smarter way.
I don't mind if entering my notes in my iPhone after I leave a client means I visit less clients before 5pm, I just dont want to continue to spend my entire evening doing it when I get home. Any help entering data on an EXISTING excel spreadsheet from the iPhone would be very helpful. Or any suggestions on better contact managers would be great as well. What is working for you seasoned sales professionals out there?
Thank you all in advance :-)

Everything is working great, 2 ms latency recording on some quick testing.
BUT the Soundbank Manager doesn't seem to want to load any SF2 into Synth A or B , so I can use them in my sequencer (JAZZ++) for playback, and REAPER for recording (eventually). I don't want to be locked into the default [url="http://homerecording.com/bbs/showthread.php?p=2960574#">Windows[/url] GM sounds. At least in REAPER, I can use a VST approach and connect a SF, but I only want MIDI for Drums and maybe some Pads, in spots. I do have a MIDI bassline, but that will be re-done with real bass guitar.
Maybe because I don't have a physical MIDI port on the OEM version, the program isn't functiing properly (guess)
Is there another way to load the Synths ? Manual scripts ... via INI ?
REAPER:
As it's an OEM card, it's possible that MIDI features are ripped. Have you tried by installing nati've software by tweaking the installer?
You find the original CD and instructions on how to patch the installed by searching here using "BadBoy" for CD and "ctcomp" for patching (as for an example).
- on Options/Preferences/Audio/MIDI Devices, select synths A/B
- create new track
- on track I/O config, set MIDI Hardware output to Audigy Synth A or B and on Audio Hardware outputs, add a new one as stereo Left/Right
- on track Monitoring options, enablethe monitoring
- set the SF bank (Do not use big ones but those bundled ones beford getting everything working ... there are some size limitations)
Remember also that drums are on MIDI channel 0.
Hope this helps you to start ... (I don't have SoundFont Bank Manager installed so I can't try if this works).

ICS update in Trinidad- To any sony admin out there

This is to any admin out there. I am from Trinidad and I own a live with walkman which I love howeer I would ike to update to ICS. Can anyone help. I keep seeing the update being recieved in different parts of the world but I have yet to see any on my computer. If any sony admin is out there pleaasseee help.
I also have seen talk of addnig my SI number to a list for updating.... is this possible?

Still no iOS5 after 24hrs plus of trying. Still receiving network error message. Any tips/hints out there?

I have been trying to update to iOS5 (on iPhone 3GS and iPad 2) since 1 pm MST yesterday and I am still receiving the "network has timed out" error message. What is the deal? Apple should have expected this kind of traffic on their servers. Am I going to have to go a buy the 4s just to get iOS5?

"network timed out" is a common message with ALL iOS updates. A simple search of the forums would have revealed that disabling Anti-Virus and Firewall software on the computer tends to rectify the issue.
Apple does anticipate the server load, but building in enough capacity to handle the ENORMOUS traffice that hits their site when iOS updates are released makes no logical, financial, or business sense. When millions of iPhone users world-wide attempt to download updates at virtually the same time, it is slow.
Why the insistence on downloading the update as soon as it's released? Simply waiting a few hours, which most are forced to do due to the slow download, will result in a much faster download.
I was able to download iOS 5 this morning in about 6 minutes.

Any Cell Menu Tutorials out there?

Hey All -
All is well but I'm trying to learn about the Cell Menu. No problems, but I haven't stressed this rig yet (ran ATTO on my Crucial RealSSD 128G though - right on spec)
Beyond my most pressing question - why (I think) my timings are reported as 7-7-7-19 instead of 9-9-9-24 - I'm looking for a site, a white paper, a guru-for-hire - anything that I can use to learn about the Cell Menu.
There's a ton of info on overclocking of course, but nothing like a general "here's how to read the Cell Menu."
Any thoughts on where to learn in-depth about the Cell Menu?
Thanks guys!

Hey HU - thanks for the reply. Yes it's interesting to me, I put the Uncore Freq to 10 and tested with Everest, and for some reason my RAM times all dropped back to what they were with CR set to 2T (even though I did set it back to 1T).
So I went back, changed Uncore Freq to Auto and now I'm back on top of every category.
Anyway, I guess it's like the articles say re: OC'ing and BIOS settings: "your mileage may vary."
My Uncore Freq runs at 2400MHz on Auto and 2600MHz on 10. I assumed the faster rate would perform better but Everest seems to like the Auto setting better.
Eventually I'll post in the OC'ing forum once I understand these relationships a bit more - Uncore Freq, Mem Ratio, etc.
btw, is Everest a "legit" benchmarking program? I read tech sites and most don't use it in their reviews very often. But it's the only one I've got right now, that and ATTO.
Thanks again for your help HU!
Shoot - I just noticed Task Mngr is only seeing 8G or RAM instead of 12G.
weird because the Everest tests were great - tops in almost every category, and Everest (and CPU-Z) report 12G installed. Everest shows 12G but on the Usage section it's only showing 8G.
I tried putting the Uncore Ratio back to 10 and still only 8G. Tried Auto again, only 8G.
I may just go back to the default 1066 clock - Everest gave me the best results with that.
Unless there are other ideas perhaps...? I'd like to be running the RAM to spec - I guess. Although maybe I should rethink that - I'm getting better test results with the "slower" clock and faster timings. (defaulted to 7-7-7-19 1T @533MHz).
I suppose all this has very little real-world impact anyway...(?)
thanks you guys!

Are their any tutorials out there for begginers of Logic Pro 7...

I'm really starting to feel kinda stupid with this logic pro 7 program somebody please help me! if not i'm realling thinking about selling my laptop and logic pro 7 to get a akai mpc 2500.....
holthiphopminister

Here's some starting points:
http://www.apple.com/logicpro/resources.html
I highly recommend starting with one of the Logic tutorial DVD's that actually show and tlak you through things, like the Martin Sitter ones, which will get you started.
Failing that, a friend who's knowledgable in the ways of Logic to help you set it up on your system for your own workflow is the absolute best way.

Corrupted domain file - any repair software out there?

Having just upgraded to iLife09 after a few uses of iWeb I now can't access my intensely-worked on website file - the apple support guy took me through lots of ways to see whether it was iWeb or the domain file where everything is saved which was the problem. Apparently it's the domain file (although I now can't get into iWeb again either - although I managed once or twice after we took the domain file out, and it was like I had never been there..all blank). He suggested I search for software created to repair domain files which are corrupted. Basically all my website is in the domain file, it's sitting on my desktop now, and I can't access use it. I did do a back-up, but manually, and I ignorantly backed up the wrong file - one that had already been published to the desktop - which can't be re-imported either... I have a lot to learn.

I've created an Automator workflow that will backup the contents of the User/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder to the Documents folder. It can be used any time, like after you publish. If you have an external HD you can edit the workflow with Automator to save to a different destination. It's called iWeb Domain File Backup and can be downloaded from Toad's Cellar .
I used it before I got Synk Standard which does incremental backups, i.e. copies only those new or modified files in the domain files - much faster than copying the entire domain file.

Any talented producers out there who use Logic Express?

I need tips, I decided out of thin air I'd like to become one and so I purchased the program, any additional programs / instruments you would suggest I purchase? Any good informational websites to help me through? What should my area of study be focused on right now?

--> musicradar.com and Future Music magazine (UK edition) are good and reliable sources of information about the latest trends in music production. FM has extensive tutorials on techniques for Logic, Cubase and Ableton Live in every issue. Not to mention reviews of new synths, plugins and other related products. I also find interviews with artists very inspiring.
As for instruments or programs it is basically up to you. It's your money, so you should decide based on information you get. That is because, for example, I may like one thing, but you will totally hate it, or vice versa. It's very subjective, like tastes in music. Anyways, it's very hard to recommend something today, unless you narrow down the scope and specify what your intentions are.
