New TV Settings Questions - HELP

All:
I have a new Toshiba 55L7400 TV and I really need to know who to talk to to get answers on how the backlighting works.
I've been playing around with this set and I am getting "flashlighting' in the corners. I didn't think a true FALD set would have this. I have also noticed some shows with really bad "blocks" of black... the screen isn't uniform.
I need to understand how Dynalight and the LED backlight settings work together to better set up my TV.
I do notice that when using "movie" some of these effects are not as bad but I haven't tweaked that setting as much as the autoview.
Pleaes help.

New to Solaris question help please

Just successfully installed Solaris 10 on VMWare ESXi and assigned it 50GB of HDD space. When I type df -h I see that 79% of my disk is used and the rest of the storage is nowhere to be found.
I'm new to Solaris is this because the rest of the drive hasn't been partitioned? Some help would be greatly appreciate so that I can take advantage of the rest of my volume...
Thanks!

I don't recall allocating anything during installation.Which means that you did a default installation with no customization. Looking over your file system layout confirms this.
I have an update df -h listing as well (I installed on a different system)

From this, I understand that /dev/dsk/c1t0d0s0 has a size 4.6GB (assuming the OS is installed here) when I download items to the desktop, it appears they are placed in this "disk"?Depends on where you told Firefox to place them by default. You could just as easily configure it, Edit, Preferences, Main, Downloads, tell it to place the downloads somewhere else.
> Also, /dev/dsk/c1t0d0s7 is where 44GB of free storage resides, I believe this is located in /export/home (as a folder with 44GB of space available) as far as my knowledge of Solaris is concerned.
Correct. Solaris is a multi-user system that leaves plenty of space for user home directories which default to /export/home. IMNSHO the space that is leaves behind for / is usually small enough to make the system unusable after applying only a few patches. If you switch to OpenSolaris 2008.11 you can ZFS which will mitigate most of these problems.
Just a little confusing to a newbie, coming from a Microsoft background (forgive me!) I am used to seeing volumes as icons in My Computer.The Windows tool for managing disks is nice and graphical.
What's your advice for managing volumes, formating to ZFS, maybe some visual method of understanding volumes?If you haven't done much with the system then you might consider switching to OpenSolaris with the caveat that some parts of Solaris are not available in OpenSolaris because of licensing issues. However, for someone who's just starting out you won't miss them.
For understanding, http://www.docs.sun.com / Solaris / Administration and then look for the two books on Disk Management. One is for ZFS and the other is for UFS. ZFS and Volume Manager Administration

New Kernal Panic question - Help needed desperate!

Hi All,
This is the first time I have used the Forum and am hoping that someone can help. I'm having a huge issue with my iMac G5. I had iTunes playing two days ago and no other programmes open at the time. I left my desk for no more the 10 minutes and when I returned I had a message in four languages telling me to restart my computer. I have tried this but now when I try to turn on my iMac, the only screen I get now is the kernal panic and then the fans kick in really loud. Now comes the part where you sit there and shake your head at me! I have read that I should press the option key when turning the iMac back on, the only problem is, I don't know which is the option key!! If someone could let me know it would be much appreciated. Also any other advise would be great as I have no idea what to do.

Hi RYork,
Which model of iMac G5 do you have? Is it:
a) one of the original iMac G5's, sold new up til the beginninhg of May 2005,
b) one of the "ALS" models , with a little "light sensor" bump on the back of the grill on the bottom edge of the computer, an inchor two to the right of the big "Apple" Logo, sold between late April and October, 2005, or
c) one of the later models with a built in iSight camera, sold after October 12th, 2005?
THe first step here ideally involves resetting the SMU of the computer. The process differs depending on the model that you have. See http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=301733 for the two later models and dot point 2, paragraph 9 of http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=300908 for the more complicated process for the original "first generation" model .
You should disconnect all peripherals other than your keyboard and mouse when troubleshooting this sort of problem. USB hubs and USB ADSL routers are particularly common causes of problems, so make sure you lose both of these especially hwile trying to find the problem. As you have indicated that you are suspicious of your keyboard you may even want to try restarting with it disconnected , too, after trying the SMU reset.
The option key is called the "alt" in the UK. Using this is only going to help if you have a second disc with an operating system to start from though. This could be the iMac G5 DVD that came with your computer, or an external firewire drive with a system installed on it.
If your computer is one of the "first generation" models mentioned above it is quite possible that you have a serious hardware problem. There is an "extension repair" program in place for these computers, even if they are out of warranty, because of the well known hardware problems, so check the details of the program at http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=302181 .
You say that your husband has a laptop, but you don't say whether it is an Apple or not. If it is then it may be possible to undertake some further troubleshooting using something called "Target Disk Mode", so let us know what it is.
But this keyboard has me worried first of all. If an SMU reset doesn't solve the problem, then disconnect EVERYTHING and see if the computer will now start up before going further down the troubleshooting path.
Cheers
Rod

New e 4200 question help on ap?

So here is my issue, I do have a e4200 in my office hardwired from the brighthouse modem, then 3 hardwired from there to 2 PC's. I have a 75 foot Ethernet line run to the middle of the house where I have a 5 port switch which wires TV, sat box, etc in that room. I want to use that Ethernet line from my e4200 to a AP so I can get a decent wireless signal on that end of the house but I need the switch there also for a lan connection.
So can I use a Links wrt150n at the AP point for both access point and hard wired and use the ports on the 150 that room also?
Does anyone have any suggestions its driving me crazy and Im reading till my eyes are bleeding.
Thanks,
Roth

Yes.
1. Wire a computer to the WRT. Open the web interface at http://192.168.1.1/
2. On the main setup page set the LAN IP address from 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.1.2.
3. On the same page disable the DHCP server.
4. Save settings. Unplug the computer.
5. Now wire one of the LAN ports of the WRT into your 5 port switch.
Now you can use the access point in the WRT (configure on http://192.168.1.2/ ) and all remaining switch and WRT ports.

Presenter 8 -- need help with proper settings to allow quiz retake (with a NEW set of questions from a random pool)

We are publishing a Presenter 8 quiz to an LMS in a SCORM format. I am having trouble with the following: the quiz is built with multiple question groups, and a limited number of questions are being selected from each group. E.g. we have 80+ questions in total, and 25 are presented to a user on a given attempt.
When a user fails the quiz and exits the quiz normally, we want them to study and try again. I set the quiz settings to allow infinite attempts, and set the LMS settings to make sure the quiz is not presented in "review mode". When I test this quiz by failing it the first time, when I reenter the quiz, I am taken to the last slide in the quiz (which is the last one I viewed), and I can retake the quiz by navigating back to the first question.
Here's the problem: I am presented with the SAME set of questions, rather than a NEW set of random questions. This will facilitate cheating (all a user has to do is take the quiz once, review the answers, and then take it again to pass it).
How do I insure that the user is presented with a NEW set of questions when I retake the quiz?
I am open to upgrading to Adobe Presenter 10, but would rather not have to do so. There must be some setting I'm missing.

CS6 New Sequence Settings - MBD & MRQ Help

Does it make a difference whether or not I set the MBD & MRQ in the New Sequence > Settings Tab or in the Export Dialog Box?
Do these same settings in the New Sequence > Settings also determine how Adobe handles video previews?
Currently I use AVCHD footage. Do I increase my color bit depth while working in my Timeline? If so, to what?
I was under the impression that whenever I import media into Premiere Pro it automatically up-samples media to 4:4:4 and 32 bit float color. Is this incorrect until I activate MBD & MRQ in the New Sequence > Settings Tab?
Any help would be greatly apprecated.
Thanks in advance

>I was under the impression that only RGB color space was expressed as 8bit, 10bit, 16bit and 32bit floating point.
There are pixel modes for 8,16 integer + 32bit float for both RGB and YUV.
>YUV is actually the only one expressed in chroma subsampling numbers as 4:4:4 etc. RGB has three distinct color channels expressed in bits per channel (Red, Green, Blue) while YUV has three different components which consist of lumanance and two chromanance. Big difference between both. In all actuallity it really should be expressed as Y'CbCr. YUV is actually an analog system.
correct. there is no reason to put "4444" after RGBA.
here are most of the pixel formats supported by Premiere...
PrPixelFormat_BGRA_4444_8u is the standard format Premiere always used.
PrPixelFormat_ARGB_4444_8u is what After Effects used
MaxBitDepth converts to, and uses,
For RGB:
     PrPixelFormat_BGRA_4444_32f
For YUV:
     PrPixelFormat_VUYA_4444_32f

I have HDMI connection to the receiver and on to the TV - but no audio from my new Apple TV. I have checked all connections and the video is xlnt. Have also toggled thru every possible Dolby/Audio combination in settings. Help! Any suggestions?

I have an HDMI connection to the receiver and on to the TV - but there is non audio from my Apple TV. Not for movies, music, YouTube etc.   I have checked all of the connections and the video is xlnt. Have also toggled thru all possible Dolby/Audio combinations in settings. Help! Any suggestions?

Hello again Parker -
The basic setup is Digital Cable Box, DVD Player, Denon Receiver/Amp and TV Monitor. To that I added the Apple TV. The Receiver only has two HDMI IN slots (one for cable and one for the DVD) and one out to the Monitor.
[I bought a switcher to toggle the DVD and the AppleTV back and forth but just disconnected the DVD to simplify when I ran in to trouble.]
So now I have:
     HDMI from the Cable Box to the Receiver
     HDMI from the Apple TV to the Receiver (in the old DVD slot which always worked well)
     HDMI from the Receiver to the Monitor
     RCA's from the Receiver to the Subwoofer and the other speakers
In addition I have some backup connections:
     S-Video, Optical Audio and L/R RCA's from the Cable Box to the Receiver
     S-Video from the Receiver to the Monitor
Wait - JUST FOUND IT!
By going thru the excercise to track all of the connections per your suggestion, I found an anomaly when I switched Receiver sockets for the HDMI links. The video moved but the audio didn't. Turns out the monitor was using the optical audio feed from the receiver. So I disconnected the optical audio and the monitor automatically switched to the HDMI audio feed!   Looked promising...
So I first connected an optical audio feed from the ATV to the receiver - Audio! Then I pulled it, but the audio didn't switch to the HDMI feed. It stopped. Would be OK if all I was going to use is the ATV, but I need the DVD player too and I can't use a switcher to toggle between them if I have to unplug the optical audio each time.
This is becoming a career! Any suggestions?

Adding two Airport Express to New Ariport Extreme - need help with settings

First, I have a brand new Airport Extreme (square N one) that is up and working just fine. The SSID is "Unstable Network". Under the Wireless tab...The Wireless mode is currently: "Create a Wireless Network". The "Allow this network to be Extended" box is not checked. Radio Mode is "Automatic". Radio Channel Selection is set to "Automatic". What do these need to be changed to?
2nd: I have an older Aiport Express that I used to use for itunes and a receiver. I want to add this to my Airport Extreme Network to extend the wireless network to the basement and stream itunes to my remote receiver. I can see this Airport Express using Airport Utility. The SSID of this Airport Express is "Unstable Network Extender". Under the wireless tab....Wireless mode is set to "Join a Wireless Network" The network it is assigned to is my Airport Extreme SSID "Unstable Network". It shows up as IP address 10.0.1.6. What should these setting be to both extend the network and allow itunes to stream?
3rd: I have a second Airport Express that I would like to plug in at a remote end of my house on the second floor to extend my network even further. It is currently hardwired and I can see it in Airport Utility. The SSID is "Unstable Network Extender 2". The setting are the same as the other Airport Express. It shows up as IP address 10.0.1.13. What should they be to extend the network.
Thank you in advance to anyone that can clearly spell out what my setting should be. I am non-technical for the most part, but was technical enough to set up my Airport Extreme but can't figure out how to extend everything.

Since you will have a mix (802.11g/802.11n) AirPorts, and that you want to "daisy" chain the two AirPort Express Base Stations (AX) to extend the wireless network, you will need to configure the three of them for a static Wireless Distribution System (WDS).
Here are the basic steps to do so:
(Note: To facilitate the WDS set up, place the base stations within near proximity of each other during the set up phase, and then relocate them to their desired locations when complete. In this case, I suggest that you temporarily connect both AXs to the 802.11n AirPort Extreme Base Station (AEBSn) by Ethernet. Also, jot down the AirPort IDs (MAC addresses) for each of the base stations to be used in the WDS. The AirPort ID and is printed on the label on the bottom/side of the base station.) Finally, I strongly suggest that you perform a "hard" reset on the AEBSn and "factory default" resets on the AXs to get them back to their original "out-of-the-box" configurations before you start.)
For reference in this setup:
o AEBSn = main base station
o AX#1 = relay base station
o AX#2 = remote base station
Main Base Station Setup - AEBSn
o On the Mac click the AirPort status menu in the menu bar and choose the wireless network created by AEBSn.
o Open AirPort Utility (located in the Utilities folder in the Applications folder on a Macintosh computer, or in Start > All Programs > AirPort on a computer using Windows).
o Select the AEBSn, and then, choose Manual Setup from the Base Station menu.
o Click Wireless in the toolbar, and then, choose “Participate in a WDS network” from the Wireless Mode pop-up menu. (Note: You may have to hold down the <Option> key before making this selection to get the WDS option.)
o Click WDS, and then, choose “WDS main” from the WDS Mode pop-up menu.
o Select the “Allow wireless clients” checkbox if you want client computer to connect to this base station.
o Click the Add "+" button and enter the AirPort ID of the relay base station - AX#1.
o Click Update to send the new settings to the base stations in the WDS.
Relay Base Station Setup - AX#1
o In the AirPort Utility select AX#1, and then, choose Manual Setup from the Base Station menu.
o Click AirPort in the toolbar and click Wireless. Choose “Participate in a WDS network” from the Wireless Mode pop-up menu, and choose the same channel as the AEBSn from the Channel pop-up menu.
o Click WDS and choose “WDS relay” from the WDS Mode pop-up menu.
o Enter the AirPort ID of the AEBSn in the Main AirPort ID field.
o Click the Add "+" button and enter the AirPort ID of AX#2.
o Click Update to transfer the new WDS settings to the relay and remote base stations.
Remote Base Station Setup - AX#2
o In the AirPort Utility select AX#2, and then, choose Manual Setup from the Base Station menu.
o Click AirPort in the toolbar and click Wireless. Choose “Participate in a WDS network” from the Wireless Mode pop-up menu, and choose the same channel as the AEBSn from the Channel pop-up menu.
o Click WDS and choose “WDS remote” from the pop-up menu.
o Enter the AirPort ID of the AEBSn in the WDS Main field.
o Click Update to transfer the settings to the base station.

Thanks for the help Niel. I couldn't change the rescue email address (an address that no longer exists and is therefore useless) until I could correctly answer the security questions. After numerous guesses, finally got them right. Was then presented with the option to change the rescue email address. Guess the only other option was to have Apple Support make the change or reset my account info. Have made note of the correct answers so this won't happen again. Thanks for the fast response!!

New email settings for Mac Mail & 3rd party...

Anyone have instructions for new email port settings for users who are:
-Using Mac Mail
-Using third mail email service provider (i.e., not sending and receiving through a Verizon address)
Thanks,
Pardon me while I rant (I'm hoping a Verizon employee reads this)...
I use my third party email account exclusively. It's listed on my verizon account page. So, does verizon do the logical thing and send announcements to my third party email address (?) - of course not, they send them to the verizon address which I have never once used in years.
New port settings for some email users...
I got a phone call from an automated Verizon attendant telling me to check the following for new port settings for some email users:
http://www22.verizon.com/ResidentialHelp/HighSpeed/Email/Setup+And+Use/QuestionsOne/124333.htm
I guess Verizon hasn't heard that there are millions of people using Mac computers, with Mac Mail as their email clients. And, some of these users are using obscure third party email service providers with names like 'Google'. On the above linked page, there are no instructions for these users.
I tried to use the online live support feature to get a clarification about using the new port settings. A polite gentleman with a long Indian name told me he couldn't help me and gave me an 800 number to call. After calling the 800 number, a nice lady in the Philippines (on a terrible voice connection) told me she couldn't help me - she transferred me to another department where I waited and waited and waited. I finally had to hang up.
I'm beginning to think that Verizon is a division of the United States Postal Service. Come to think of it, I get much better service from the USPS than I get from Verizon.

Are you using the Mac Mail client or Verizon's netmail?

Im having trouble connecting my macbookpro to the tv. im using a mini display port to hdmi adapter, when i switch tv/video to hdmi on the tv nothing pops up, and i dont have the arrangement tap on the display settings, please help!

im having trouble connecting my macbookpro to the tv. im using a mini display port to hdmi adapter, when i switch tv/video to hdmi on the tv nothing pops up, and i dont have the arrangement tap on the display settings, please help!

I've found that the order of operations, so-to-speak, can be important when hooking up mini display port to HDMI. I have the most success with the following operations in this order:
1) Plug HDMI cable into mini displayport adapter (the cable should not be plugged into either the TV or the computer at this point)
2) Plug the mini displayport end of your new super-cable to the computer.
3) Plug the HDMI end into your TV.
4) Switch inputs on your TV to the proper input.
5) If still nothing on the TV, try a different HDMI port on your TV.
Hopefully this helps! Good luck.

I am trying to set up ICloud on my Ipad. ICloud doesn't show up as an option in my settings. Help! I want to sync all of my content from my IMac to My Ipad

Try rebooting the device. It should be in Settings right under General. You may need to go to Settings<General<Reset<Reset All Settings (don't erase data) and setup as a new device. The iCloud login should appear during this step. Just keep setting it up, then go back to settings and see if the iCloud tab appears.

How do I edit my alias and name in the new "My Settings" ?

How do I edit my alias (and/or name) in the new "My Settings" panel ? The alias and name are not editable. When using myinfo.apple.com, there is no "alias" field. This seems to be only a feature in Discussions but is no more editable. Please help !

I think that the idea is good, although nothing prevents that a "bad" user can create a new account on each login.
The È is not the only problem. In Spain we use two last name, and in spanish translation of "my info", middle name is translated as first lasts name and english last name as second last name, so my alias is completely wrong (name + second last name).
I think that nothing could happen if "good" users could change the alias once. I tried day after the warning, and I couldn't.

Notebook computer drives are not as robust as the larger drives used in desktop computers. If your G4 can run OS9, it's pretty old, and the drive may have simply worn out.
