New mediacenter app in development

Hi guys,
I'm thrilled to announce a new mediacenter on the scene.
Currently in early state of development but allready very nice.
Maybe some of you guys allready know XBMC? (Xbox Media Center)
Well, this is the best media center around (free, open source)
This has been ported and new stuff is being put in like pvr, timeshifting etc etc,
This program is free and will be open source!!!!!!
The devs have an msi mega 180 so it will work for sure for you guys
Don't expect a full app yet, but it is great and with your help it will be better.
Post ideas, comments etc here.
read me:
XBMC for windows
Requirements:
- .NET Framework 1.1
- DirectX 9 or higher
Keycodes:
s = controller start
x,y = controller x,y
a,b = controller a,b
f3 = controller white
f1 = controller black
esc = controller back
TVGuide:
Goto my tv->tvguide
Hit F3 to reload the tvguide. then go back to menu and back to tvguide again
Press A to record a show
The tvguide is based on XMLTV and located in xmltv/tguide.xml
Use xml/tvguide.bat to refresh the tvguide (dutch version)
Fullscreen/windowed
use ALT+Enter to switch between fullscreen/windows mode
Players:
xbmc/windows uses external players like zoomplayer / powerdvd or any other player
Make sure to set them up in File->Setup
Setup
Use File->Setup to set things up like shares/folders etc. Settings isnt working yet

Can I Create a New Structured App that's a Copy of a Current One?

Here's the situation: I am new to using Dita in Framemaker, but have become competent with the authoring process. I do not understand the development end of things very well, however. What I want to do is to have a second dita structured application that is identical to the first in every way except that in topic.template.fm, the page size will be set to 11x17, not 8.5x11. And I want to be able to apply that structured application to some of my DITA documents, but not all of them.
I tried to create such a situation, first by copying and then renaming the DITA folder (I called the new one DITA-BIG) in Adobe FrameMaker 8\structure\xml\ and, within DITA-BIG, making that small change to topic.template.fm.
I then added the renamed structured app to structuredapps.fm (again, I did a copy and paste of the DITA-Topic-FM element already there), changing the name of the element to Dita-TopicBig-FM and the URLs to point to those in the DITA-BIG directory.
The new structured application appears in Framemaker when I select StructureTools --> Set Structured Application, and I can select/apply it to one of my documents. However, the document's page size doesn't change. I tried saving the document, closing and reopening the document, closing and reopening Framemaker. The new, larger page size set in topic.template.fm in the DITA-BIG structured app. is ignored.
If I change the page size in the original topic.template.fm file, the document that is supposedly using the new structured app changes size to correspond to the template in the old structured app. But I need that original template to stay at its original 8.5x11 page size.
I am new to working with such files so I don't know if I missed something or if what I am attempting cannot be done.
Any advice?

Ok, it worked.
Thank you very much for your help and patience with my followup questions.
I want to describe one more thing that was not obvious to me. When I got all of this done and tried to get a help topic to use the new template, I did it wrong at first. What I tried was to open the xml file, then open the StructureTools menu and select "Set StructuredApplication." From the long list of applications that appears, I chose Dita-Topic-Bigpage-Fm (my applicaiton clone that contained the modified template). Then I saved the file, but didn't notice any changes in my page size. Even closing and reopening the file and closing and reopening Framemaker, didn't seem to have an effect. When I chose any other structured application (do not try this at home!) I got pretty spectacular results: many error messages, and one time it crashed Framemaker. But nothing happened when I chose my "bigpage" clone application.
Eventually I tried to set the structured application when I opened up the xml file. At File - Open, a little window always appears that lets you select a few structured application choices among the many available.When I did this, the file finally opened with the large page size specified in my cloned application.

Problem With New LinkedIn App

When you sync your iPhone the first thing that happens is your iPhone data from all the apps is backed up on your Mac. With only a few apps, this has usually taken only a short time. However, recently this process for me has taken a very long time, and in fact it looked like it had hung.
However, when I looked at the location where the backup data is written,
~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup
it showed that the backup process was continuing and that files were continuing to be written. By the time I manually stopped the backup process, after 20 or 30 minutes, more than 5000 had been written and there was no sign the process was near being completed.
Examining the contents of a good number of the files showed they seem to be "person records" associated with the brand new LinkedIn app. I should add that I don't have that many connections in LinkedIn and these records seemed to represent people I'm not familiar with.
Sure enough, after removing the LinkedIn app the backup process once again is completed in a short amount of time, so it is indeed the culprit. As an iPhone developer myself I'm not sure why the developers of the LinkedIn app feel the need to create thousands and thousands of separate files to support the application, but clearly that is not a good idea.
Has anyone else noted this problem with LinkedIn, or is there something unusual with my particular setup?

I had noticed the extended backup times but didn't think to associate it with a particular App.
i removed Version 3.0 and reverted to version 2.0 and you're right - the backup times shrink dramatically.
Yet another reason for an update to the App which is their most buggy one yet.

I have just became an Apple Developer and new to this whole developing thing.

New Lion App Store : Will it take Power Game Factory games?

With the announcement of the new Macos App store in Lion will it take games created from third party software such as 'Power Game Factory'? If so this could be a huge revival of the gaming industry on the mac! What are the requirements for Apps submitted to the new App store?

First of all, Lion will not arrive until Summer 2011. The Mac App Store will be here "within 90 days". It has nothing to do with Lion.
As long as your application conforms to the Mac App Store requirements, it should be fine.
I downloaded Power Game Factory and built the demo, it looks like games produced form this tools would qualify on a technical level. Each game would still have to be approved by Apple on both technical and non-technical terms.
If so this could be a huge revival of the gaming industry on the mac! What are the requirements for Apps submitted to the new App store?

Cannot open spreadsheets in latest Numbers app - "Unknown Developer"!

Having tried very hard to keep using the iWork '09 versions of Numbers ( and Pages and Keynote), I finally gave in and am now running a large and important spreadsheet in numbers 3.2 ( or whatever the latest version is). But now, every time I need to open this and other spreadsheets I get the the "Unknown Developer" message + "you need to use a more recent version"...! Talk about adding insult to injury.
Can anybody advise on a, successfully running the new Numbers app and b, even better, reverting to the '09 version (I still have these on my mac)..
Many thanks. Giorni

Dear Ian,
Many thanks for this. I was doing something similar for a while. Now my concern is that once the new Numbers app has forced itself on me, and most of my spreadsheets updated to the new version, will it be impossible to roll them back? even though I have the old apps still. Will experiment .
Many thanks,
Giorni

This solved my question This helped me
Hi Giorni,
Wayne Contello has written a User Tip for working with the old and new versions of iWork.
https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-6991
The trick is to drag icons for both versions to your Dock. Right click or control click on each and Options > Keep in Dock. That puts you in charge of which version you launch.
Here is a screen shot of both Numbers icons on my Dock.
Numbers 2.3 (Numbers '09) on the left with a three column graph.
Numbers 3.2 on the right with a four column graph.

Both versions will run happily together. Just be sure which version is opening your document.
Instead of double clicking the document, run whichever version of Numbers/Pages/Keynote suits and use File > Open.
Regards,
Ian.

Can't browse "save in" dialog box in BB News Feeds App

Blackberry Curve 9330 3G 6.0 bundle 2333 (v6.0.0.524) While in the BB News Feeds App, I would like to save a MP3. In the dialog box I click save. In the next dialog box I click browse. Dialog box is Save in .../blackberry/ringtones. I want to save in .../blackberry/music , I click menu and click up. Now I am in ...media card/blackberry. That's good, but now when I click the menu and click open I get random files to save in. I don't have the small window that lets me pick which folder I want to save my music in. I know the folders exist because I can go to them in the file app. If .../blackberry/music does appear when I use the menu button, I can save in that location. This may take five or so clicks before this choice appears. Where is the small window in the dialog box that lets me pick the folder? I think this started happening after the last update to curve. Was it a Java update? I don't know.

In the new Photo app 'Projects' will not stay open

Hi
In the new Photo app. released last week, I can not get the 'projects' to remain open. It just crashes and closes and actually now , since this afternoon I can not open any of it without it crashing.
i have a mid 2011 iMac running Yosemite 10.10.3.
i have a few photo books, slideshows and cards in the projects if this helps.
If anyone can help I would really appreciate it, even if its just so I can access the photos.
Many thanks.

Many people are reporting the project->crash problem. To the best of my knowledge, there is no fix for it.
For some folks, a temporary workaround is to select View->Sidebar and access the projects *individually*.
Hopefully this will work for you, fairymoo!
Apple's Meta-Problem: Inexplicably, "Photos" is *NOT* listed as an Application Community on the top-level web-site "https://discussions.apple.com/welcome" ... thus plenty of folks (including the poster and me too) have been unable even to find the right community for seeking/posting solutions.
Conclusion: not a smooth roll-out, Apple! Not least, why is the Photos Community so difficult to locate?

Regarding new Reminder app in Mountain Lion: is there a away to sort reminders by due date in the same fashion you can in the iCloud version of Reminders?

Regarding new Reminder app in Mountain Lion: is there a way to sort reminders in due date order in the same fashion as you can in the iCloud version of Reminders?

So true! I have to agree: "It appears Reminders in 10.8 did not get a whole lot of thought put into it regarding how folks actually use reminders."
With Mountain Lion, Reminders no longer resembles a task-management (to-do) app in any way. I used to be able to limp along using it for my to-dos (although it never did accommodate this need well). This upgrade has made Reminders completely unusable for task management.
Once I got over my disappointment, I did some research and decided to try "Things." This application has all the functionality I've been wanting all along. It has a Mac version, an iPhone version, and an iPad version (among others)--and it keeps all devices synched via the Cloud (just not the iCloud ... but who needs the i ?). I wish I'd discovered it years ago. I'm glad now that Mountain Lion put Reminders over the edge; otherwise, I would not have made this discovery.
"Things" (oddly named though it is) comes close to the old Franklin planner software I used to love and haven't been able to find a substitute for. It can import items from Reminders, and it works with Siri. It's a joy to use, and it does everything I want it to do plus some things I never thought of and will use all the time. I downloaded the free trial version last night and within an hour paid for it with gratitude.

An install request for a new helper app appeared, I entered my system password to download the app. Since then safari will not open. It just comes up with a safari quit unexpectedly report. I have tried logging on as a Guest but it does the same.

I have a MacBook Pro with OS X Yosemit. MY safari will not open, it only comes up with a safari quit unexpectedly report. A new helper app appeared requesting my system password to download the helper. Stupidly I input the password, when I log off I can see the download icon for a split second still running asking to abort or continue. How do I sort this?

I do backup with iCloud. I can't wait until the new iMac is available so that I can once again have my files in more than 1 location without needing to rely solely on the cloud.
I also rely on iTunes and my MacBook and Time Machine as well as backing up to iCloud. I know many users know have gone totally PC free, but I chose to use iCloud merely as my third backup.
I assume that the restore would result in my ability to open Pages and Numbers and fix the problem with deleting apps, but this would also mean that if my Numbers documents still exist solely within the app and are just not on iCloud for some reason that they would be gone forever. Is that right?
In a word, yes. In a little more detail.... When you restore from an iCloud backup, you must erase the device and start all over again. There is no other way to access the backup in iCloud without erasing the device. Consequently, you are starting all over again. Therefore, it would also be my assumption that Pages and Numbers will work again and that the deleting apps issues would be fixed as well.
If the documents are not in the backup, and you do not have a backup elsewhere, the documents could be gone forever.

How to use iphoto after yosemite 10.10.3, that have disabled it for new photo app?

My iMac did install new yosemite 10.10.3 telling me that new Photo app was "best ever" but now I can't open old iPhoto library because it was in old format of iPhoto library and the iPhoto app was now unusable because new Photo app. Can you help me!!??

and the iPhoto app was now unusable because new Photo app. Can you help me!!??
Which version of iPhoto do you have installed? With Yosemite, MacOS X 10.10.3, you need to update iPhoto to version 9.6.1. Only that version is fully compatible.
Apple stopped selling iPhoto, but anyone who bought iPhoto from the AppStore or updated it to a version sold at the App Store (iPhoto 9.4.5 or later) will be able to reinstall from the App Store by downloading from the Purchases tab.
If you have any version of iPhoto, that has been updated from the AppStore and is associated with your Apple ID, try to reinstall from the "Purchases" page.
Unhide iPhoto, if it is hidden on your Purchases page (See this link: Mac App Store: Hiding and unhiding purchases)
Trash the incompatible iPhoto version, but don't empty the Trash.
Reload your Purchases page at the App Store with ⌘R
Then download from that page.
The step "Trash the incompatible iPhoto version, but don't empty the Trash." must not be skipped. If Spotlight sees a version of iPhoto installed, the AppStore will try to update instead of reinstall, which does not work.

Using the new Photos app on multiple devices - confusion!

I find the recent way ios/Photos handles photos quite confusing. I am not too concerned about not having a Camera Roll, but seeing how not having this creates strange behavior when editing/deleting photos, I can see how the Camera Roll is definitely necessary or the whole thing needs revamped to handle things better.
Here's my set up:
iMac with iPhoto
iPhone 5s with the new Photos app
iPad Mini with the new Photos app
The one things I DO like is that whenever I take a photo (or upload in the case of my iMac), the photo is duplicated across all devices. That means I could take a photo on my iPhone and then edit it on my iPad Mini which has a bigger screen. (Well, so I thought..but read below.) Yes, you could do this with Photo Stream, but having all photos in one place is a bit easier to remember and find. I also like that when I delete the photo on the device that I took it on, all photos on the other two devices are also deleted. Easy. Thanks.
But that is where the ease of use ends.
If I delete the photo on any other two devices (i.e. the devices that I did NOT take the photo on), it only deletes on the devices which I didn't take the photo on. In other words, it leaves the photo on the device which I originally took the photo on.
To add to the confusion... if I edit the original photo, the edits do not get duplicated to the other devices! I see the original photo on the devices with which I did NOT take the photo but the edited one is on the original device I took it on.
Let's add even MORE confusion....if I want to edit the photo on a device it was not taken on, I then get a notice that it has to be Duplicated before I can edit it. Well, okay, I do that and then edit it. However, I now have the original showing up twice on the device it was originally taken on...the original photo and the now duplicated photo--it's the EXACT same photo since no edits get carried over from the other device.
I believe all of this is because of what happened when ios 9 combined the functions of the Camera Roll and Photo Stream together. It exhibits both behaviors but since you cannot be sure which photo was taken on which device, you have less understanding what will happen when you try to delete a photo or edit it.
Here's the key headache....What happens if I want to make sure a photo is deleted from ALL my devices and I don't remember which device I took the photo on? I will have to check every device just to be sure! I can't even open up iPhoto on my Mac and delete it from the Photo Stream album because it will remain on the original device. So, I have to check all devices and also iPhoto on my Mac for good measure in case I actually uploaded a photo there--which I do since I am scanning in old photos.
Key headache #2...you end up with duplicates of the photo if you edit the photo on any device on which it was not taken on. You also get different versions of the photo. You end up not knowing which photo was the original. To be sure to have all edited photos eventually on you iMac, you'll need to sync all devices physically to iPhoto.
Who has time to track all this?
What should happen is this...all of the photos, including their edits, should sync exactly on all devices. My Recently Added should look exactly the same across all devices and carry over any edits...now that is what I would call Continuity and Handoff! But as it stands, we don't have anything close to this...is more like Pandemonium and MixUp!
This is really a mess and way too confusing to keep track of. I can only hope this get resolved when Photos on the Mac is released.

Go to the App Store and check out the Purchases List. If iPhoto is there then it will be v9.6.1
If it is there, then drag your existing iPhoto app (not the library, just the app) to the trash
Install the App from the App Store.
Sometimes iPhoto is not visible on the Purchases List. it may be hidden. See this article for details on how to unhide it.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4928
One question often asked: Will I lose my Photos if I reinstall?
iPhoto the application and the iPhoto Library are two different parts of the iPhoto programme. So, reinstalling the app should not affect the Library. BUT you should always have a back up before doing this kind of work. Always.

How do I search for playlists with the new Youtube App?

I just got home to find the new Youtube app on my Apple TV. It seems great, but searches no longer find playlists, only individual videos. As most of my Youtube viewing on Apple TV is Let's Play playlists, without the ability to search for playlists, the app is nearly useless for me.
Am I just overlooking something or did they really remove the ability to search for playlists?

Open the Camera app. Swipe the screen up or down to change the mode.
