New Years Resolution

I have boxes of old VHS tapes that are starting to deteriorate; I've already lost some of them. I want to capture clips off of these with my Canopus converter. At this point in time, what is the best way of saving these out? Is exporting as Full Quality DV out of iMovie a safe bet, or do I need to get into Expert Settings? I'm looking towards the future and want a file that is the best quality representation of what's on the tape, that I can get into and edit portions of, if need be, and that will look as good as possible on the large screen TV I will someday be able to afford. At this point in time, I just want to capture, save and place on an external drive until I'm ready to deal with them.
Thanks for any advice on this matter.

This kind of deck (offered there on Amazon) copies directly from a VHS or S-VHS tape, straight onto a standard miniDV tape.
I have, and use, the old original JVC model to do this from time to time - except that (after umpteen years) mine's just gone wrong (the miniDV deck fails to start) so I'll have to take it for repair soon.
That will 'archive' VHS tapes to miniDV without going through iMovie or a converter or any other device.
Of course, miniDV tapes are just like VHS tapes but smaller: they have to be stored properly: on edge; away from heat, cold and moisture; away from magnetic influences; and be rewound and played at least once a year to ease the tensions out of them, and to avoid magnetic "print-through" from one layer to another.

Is there an easy way to start the new year with an empty mailbox?

I would like to move my 10,000 emails to another folder or mailbox to still be able to search if I need some info... but I would rather not use any space on my macbook pro? I tried to set up a new folder but that will reside on my computer. My new years resolution is to deal with my email on a daily basis and move, file or delete it as I go this year... but I need to start fresh! Thanks for help!

but I would rather not use any space on my macbook pro?
Do a Google search for email storage facilities and check with your isp to see if they offer free storage.

New Year's resolution: Quit smoking and debugging

Dear fellow smokers and sinners,
Who else is up to a challenge from 1st January 2012 onwards? --> No more smoking and no more debugging in the new year.
The rules:
1) You must prior have smoked or "joint-venture" with an (ex)-smoker, otherwise competing in the resolution is unfair.
2) You must have been addicted to and dependent on debugging your or others' programs in production.
3) Electric cigarettes, nicotene plasters and other external "hacks" are not allowed.
4) External debugging of other user ID's is also cheating and not allowed.
5) Emergencies must have a high priority SAP Note instructing smoking or debugging, otherwise not allowed.
6) If you cheat, then you must confess. There is no penalty (except eternal shame :-).
7) Penalty for being caught without confessing is answering all questions in the Test&Playground forum for 1 week.
Cheers and happy new year's to all,

Multiple libraries, projects and reorganizing for the new year

I have used Aperture since 1.0 and really like it but the growing pains are still present - over time of use, I've ended up with multiple libraries [2 main ones and 2-3 little ones that probably can be safely archived]. I want to start fresh in the new year and have a new Library that is my main one, my only one in fact == is it possible/feasible/desireable to export projects from Library A and B and then import the ones i want into my 2007 Library the way my new organizing system will be? I mainly have images according to geography and people [e.g. people in locations versus family and friends]. Can I consolidate all my Libraries into one new one for use in the future ?? Will exporting each project and then importing into my new master Library work??

I've been thinking just a little about what features I would like the next rev of aperture to have. Though I haven't thought through the specifics, easier and more efficient use and management of multiple libraries, projects etc would be nice. Whole aperture projects referenced from multiple libraries or some such? (I said I hadn't thought it through!)
It's over a year since aperture came out, macworld is coming up, and I suspect that 2.0 will be released eventually some time in the future, perhaps with changes (maybe even improvements!) in library and project workflow.
So while I too am considering how to organize my own aperture materials I am currently holding off for bit just in case there might maybe possibly be (Conjecture Warning!!!) something new announced soon....

How to change the year in a range of column dates to the new year?

How to change the year in a range of column dates to the new year?

Depends on the pattern of the dates. The last procedure will work for any pattern, or no pattern at all.
For examples.the dates are assumed to be in column A, starting at A2
Sequential dates?
Enter first updated date in the first cell.
Enter =A2+1 in cell A3. Copy the cell.
Select A3 to the end of the list. Paste.
With the cells still selected, Copy, then go Edit > Paste Values.
Evenly spaced dates?
Same procedure as above, but replace +1 in the formula with + and the number of days between dates in the list.
Randomly spaced dates?
Select cell B2. Press option-left arrow to insert a (temporary) column to the left of column B.
Click on the empty cell B2 in the new column. Enter the formula below:
=DATE(YEAR(A)+1,MONTH(A),DAY(A))
Copy the cell, then select B2 - Bn where n is the last ow containing a date to be converted. Paste,
With the cells still selected, Copy.
Click on A2, then go Edit > Paste values.
Click on the column B reference tab to select all of column B.
Hover the mouse over the right end of the reference tab, and click the black triangle when it appears.
Choose Delete Column from the menu that appears.

HT2523 How do I add shadow to the title of a document while in Pages? For instance: NEW YEAR'S NEEDS. I'm also at a loss to know how to create a folder for certain types of documents such as "Sermons" or "Lessons."

How do I add shadow to a title, such as, NEW YEAR'S NEEDS, while in Pages? I also don't know how to set a new folder for documents of the same type such as, "Sermons," or "Lessons." Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Yes, I very well may be over thinking this, but I tried duplicating and moving it, but the text distorts slightly, which can be mostly remedied by rotating it on the x-axis, although the light is still off. And the shadows and reflections are not visible - this is pic1... In pic2, I used "rotate 3d object" with the green and red arrows, instead of just sliding it up the y-axis using the coordinates in the scene tab. Using the green and red arrows to move the text preserved the reflections but the shadows now aren't visible. It was also hard to align the text perfectly in scenario 2. Thanks for the help
