Newbie question: What accesories do I need ...

Hi there,
I'm in a phase of buying the iPod Color (60GB) and want to use it as follows:
- Connect it to my PC to synchronize (via iTunes/Photoshop Elements 3.0) with various kinds of sources (music, photos, podcasts, music store) & recharge (preferably using a dock)
- Connect it to my Audio/TV equipment for slideshows and/or listening & charging
- Connect it to my car audio
- At times (vacation) be able to use (part of the) disk as a backup device for my digital camera (Canon G5) whilst on the road.
My questions:
- Am I asking too much?
- If not what exactly do I need to buy next to the iPod color bundle itself to realize the functionality listed above without having to carry around with all sorts of cables and docks between PC/Car/TV-Audio? (I want a comfortable solution in which the iPod is the only "mobile" part)
I know this sounds pretty trivial but I find it pretty confusing to compose the correct bundle on the iStore (Netherlands) which led me to put forward this question in this forum.
Hoping for some good advise.
Thanks in advance

Thanks for your reply.
I definitely need a case based on the feedback I got. Seems the iPods case is easy to be scratched. (BTW: Any recommendations?)
Furthermore I have the following list:
- Seems I need 2 docks, one for the PC and one for the TV/Audio.
- Next to this I need an additional AV-cable and Monster Audio Cable to connect one of the docks to the Audio/TV
- I need a power supply + cable (which one?) to be able to charge the iPod whilst on the "Audio/TV-dock?.
- I need an FM transmitter (which one do you advise?) for in-car usage (I don't have a cassette player anymore so the cassette-adapter is no option). Any experience on the quality, is it better than normal broadcasts?
- I need an iPod camera connector so I can connect it with my camera via an USB cable.
Guess that's about it, right?
@arrowsparrow: The dutch translation is readable though not really correct. I get the idea but it is a bit too literal. If I didn't have the English text for reference it would be hard to understand parts of it. I think you can do a better job yourself once you took the dutch-course :>)
I just took a vacation (west coast of France)a few weeks ago so I won't be going again in short time.

Newbie Question - what do i need ?

Hi ... I am an animator and I want to write a soundtrack for my demo reel. I do have some musical background and would like to restart my interest in composing music. Should I go for logic express or just use garage band ? If i stick with garage band I need to get that symphony jam pack. Is there anything similar for logic. I am a complete newb to all of this. I guess i don;t really know what I need. I was thinking a USB midi keyboard, logic express and some kind of sample add-on.
Thanks everyone !

oh yeah ... i was also wondering if express has all the quantization tools that pro has. thanks =).

Beginner question: What exactly do I need?..

Hello everybody,
I am really a SAP newbie, so, I have numerous and pretty complex (to my mind) questions. I hope, some of you, gurus, could help me with them.
First of all, I am J2EE developer. So, I would like to use SAP (Web AS?) advantages with my J2EE applications.
1. Is SAP WebAS only Web container (like Tomcat) or full-compaitable J2EE container (i.e. with EJB support, etc.)?
Also, I am interested in ABAP programming language. Which advantages could it bring to me? I would like to "play" with it, too.
2. What SAP server do I need? Is there any trial download? or developer's limited edition?
Soon, I could start working in a company, where SAP R/3 system is working. Will I be able to run my J2EE application and ABAP programs (if I will write few of them ;-)? Will they be able to run both in one AS?
3. What SAP software can I download (trial? limited edition?) to learning it, and which will be able to be the same (of very likely to) full-functional SAP R/3?
If it will be possible, answer these questions!
Or just tell me where I can get these answers (books/links/etc.).
Thank you very much!
Looking forward your answer!

Olexiy,
I also started recently digging into the SAP environment - specifically Java application development to leverage SAP backend operations. It's been a challenge to learn enough to understand what is going on with the SAP Java environment.
I recommend you also check out searchsap.com as they have a lot of good articles. But in general, the SAP Web AS seems to be very limited. I'm running the 6.40 Sneak Preview, but as best as I can tell I need the 6.20 package so I can install a MiniWAS (scaled down SAP instance). Otherwise I don't seem to have a backend to target for transactions.
In general - from SAP outward you have the RFC and BAPI layer. These are then exposed via JRFC and JCo (Java Connector). Web AS seems to be another wrapper around JCo. NetWeaver then appears to add custom taglibs for "easing development" of SAP views.
Technology-wise none of this is too exciting for someone not familiar with the limitations within the SAP environment previous to JCo. And JCo is a bit difficult since it connects to SAP using either a manage pool or a single connection - both of which must have a declared user ID and password at instantiation.
Since RFC and BAPI calls are executed in context of the connection user profile, I'm trying to determine how I support numerous concurrent named users without incurring the hit of not using pooling for the JCo connections.
If you are more interested in just a more Eclipse enabled custom Java web app builder then Web AS 6.40 may give you the opportunity to work on it. But if you need to ferret out execution to SAP, I haven't found the 6.40 Sneak Preview to be partiuclarly useful.
Good luck!
PS: Check out Austin Sincock's book on Java and SAP for more on how this stuff fits together.

Newbie Question: What happens if I get a new PC?

I just received a black video iPod for Christmas. So far, I've been able to buy, download and watch some TV shows and music from iTunes, and transfer some audio books from CDs and I love it. I have everything on a manual setting.
The problem is my PC is several years old now, is very slow, doesn't have enough memory, and the CD drive sometimes is flakey, so I am planning to replace the PC soon.
However, I've been told that everything on your PC has to match everything on your iPod, or else it'll overwrite everything.
Is this true even in manual mode? I don't want to lose everything I already have when I get my new PC, so do I have to transfer everything from the old to the new? How would I do that, since many of these files are huge and, as I said, the CD drive doesn't always work properly? What do people do if their PC crashes completely and one is no longer able to access the hard drive?

Thank you -- that is helpful.
I guess my question is twofold. First, how do you transfer to a new computer, which you've answered. The other part of the question, which I didn't really ask explicitly, is to do with manual vs. automatic syncing. It sounds like if it's on manual syncing, then one's iPod is not going to be overwritten by iTunes and you do not have to maintain everything on the PC the same as it is on the iPod. Is that correct?
Also, can I download to my iPod from two different PCs? For example, because my CD drive doesn't always work, I'd like to use my boyfriend's PC to upload my CDs. Since I won't be getting my new PC immediately (need to recover from Christmas first), is it possible for me to set up my iTunes account on his PC as well as on my own?
The person I talked to at the Apple Store told me that you can only use your iPod with one computer at a time and that it was something about copyright. Also, if you sync things manually Apple can't help with any support issues.

Newbie Q: What do movie clips need to allow Actionscript?

Hello. Thanks for taking time out for this question.
Basically, I started an exercise in a book and it asked me to
add code to a movieclip. I created a basic circle, converted it to
a movie clip and tried to press F9 for actionscript, but Flash told
me "Current selection cannot have actions added to it".
When I looked at the example file that came with the book, I
couldn't see anything special about the movieclip that was used.
What am I missing?

However, the techniques of adding code directly to movie
clips is an old and outdated way of coding. And I would advise that
if you are serious about learning Actionscript that you don't go
down that road.
AS 2 is perfectly useful and good so learn that or learn AS3
(or both!), but here is a link to an article about the issue:
http://www.quip.net/blog/2006/flash/museum-pieces-on-and-onclipevent
David Stiller (that is his blog) posts here often and is a
great source of information. You might want to check out more of
his articles.
It could be that your book is just showing one way before
moving on to a more sensible approach, but check the examples
toward the end. If they are full of on() and onClipEvent() I woudl
recommend getting a different book.

Newb questions.....needs help!

hey guys,
im new here. ive had my iPod for a long while now. its the gen with the 4 buttons across the top.
anyway. it wont sync with my computer. i plug it in and it gets thru about 200 songs and then the screen on the iPod goes blank and resets itself with the little apple icon on the screen.
i tried to restore the iPod thru iTunes. and it just says that the firmware doesnt exsist on the iPod.
nothing seems to be working. can i get some help here. i only use the iPod for my car. its connected thru a Pioneer iPod box and a 7700mp headunit.
idk if that means anything, but i need help cuz this is annoying and i wanna figure this out. thanks.

Hmm i have loaded optimized defaults because i made the system unstable trying to learn how the settings worked.
Would it be simpler to ask for help from scratch, my goal is not to overclock my processor yet i just would like to see my ram operate at 800mhz relaibly
Right now CPU-Z tells me my ddr2 is operating at 400mhz, Corsair says this is 800mhz ddr2, I need education and help. I can build a computer and i can trouble shoot a medium range of hardware issues. I have 0 experience with this type of MOBO and Socket, Socket AM2 seemed like a good choice for the ddr2.
Quote from: Stick on 28-July-06, 17:25:10
what exactly did you modify in BIOS?
I was trying to take my ram from 400 to 800mhz it looked like a pretty self explanatory setting in the bios but for some reason in the windows environment Info programs do not seem to see it operating at 800mhz even though the bios says it is. I dont have a more detailed explanation of what i did. I have been reading through the message boards of various websites, and am suddenly realizing i may have been mistaken to invest in Socket AM2 at this time.
I would like to add though, it is impressively fast even without being optimized.
Plays all my games flawlessly, should i be happy with it as is or try to get the most out of it?

Newbie questions please be kind - help needed please.

I just bought a 60gig video ipod. I have installed Itunes and have successfully transfered audio files to the ipod but these are the questions I have.
1. I have audio books on my computer and would like to put them under the audio books catagory on the ipod but I can't figure out how.
2. Even with Itunes running my Ipod states "Do not disconect"
continually.
3. Can you put music just under the artist catagory or just a full album under the album catagory.
I have read everything that I could find to try and help me with this but I can't find my answers. Thank you for you time.

hmmmm, dropped off some of my paste. Here are all the links. Cheers and happy audio book listening

Total newbie question... Just need some help.

I am wondering how to change a header and have all my sheets (yes, using a template) reflect that change. Also, I made a team roster and I am wondering how to have all my sheets (stats for players) reflect the roster I created. Simple name stuff.
Thanks for the help.
[email protected]

Coll,
To both of your questions I would say: Have one master sheet and on your other sheets, reference the information on your master sheet. To mirror the contents of a cell in another Table or Sheet, type = and then click on the cell you want to reference.
Hope this gets you started.

Sry for this Newbi question: what is the diff betw...

I am using the E71, the black version bought from Hong Kong.. the only diff I can see is that the E71x is also black?? Does that mean I have the E71x phone? But I only see on the top right cornor of my phone its says E71 only and on pictures on the web it says E71x... hummm...
Thanks
Solved!
Go to Solution.

The E71x is an AT&T Branded phone. It is NOT the same thing as an unlocked E71 with a black case. There are hardware differences and software differences between the E71x and the E71 line of phones.

What licensing do I need for this use ?

Lets say Im planning an application which does nothing but
allows the user to upload Adobe PDF documents to our server. Then
once on the server, parse the values from forms on the PDF's and
extract the data. We wont be distributing Acrobat reader or any
other Adobe product, but will provide a link where they can
download the reader.
Also, the PDF's would be created by someone with a copy of
Acrobat pro. These PDF's will need digital signature capability.
Can Acrobat reader handle signatures ?
Here are my questions:
- What licensing do I need, if any, in the above scenario,
other than that for a copy of Acrobat ?
- What are my options for capturing digitical signatures
within a PDF and will the publicly available version of Acrobat
reader allow the end user to sign the documents, provided they
install the extra requirements for handling the signatures ?

This isn't the correct forum for this topic, but I may be
able to get you started...
The licensing restrictions on gathering form data from PDFs
is outlined in the EULA for Reader, I believe there is a limit of
500 copies, but I could be wrong ... you should look at the EULA to
be sure.
Beyond that, try posting to the
Acrobat
Forums or contacting a sales rep at Adobe, they may be able to
advise you further.

Newb question - ufsdump

Hey guyz,
Quick newb question:
What is the function of the n modifier in "ufsdump 4uf /dev/rmt/0n /export/home"?
Thanks.

The tape device /dev/rmt/0 can be accessed through a number of "names". The exact name used indicates a exactly how the hardware should access the device.
/dev/rmt/0n is the no rewind version. If you don't add the n then the tape will be automatically rewound on close.
You have to use that version if you want to dump multiple things onto the tape one after the other.

Hi، I forgot answer to my security question what should I do؟

Newbie Question: How much computer do I need?

Newbie Question:
I would like to use MainStage 3 in a live performance environment to play bars, parties, etc. I'm not looping, using it to playback recordings, processing outboard equipment or vocal processing. I want to stop carrying Rolands, Nords, Korgs, etc and get to a controller and a rack with a Mac Mini in it.
I tested a download of Mainstage 3 on my home Mac Mini (late 2012, 3.5 Ghz i5, 4GB RAM, 500GB drive) and it seemed to run fairly well. $30 well invested so I trekked forward... I purchased a Mac Mini (late 2009, 2.52GHz Core 2 Duo, 6GB RAM, 128GB SSD) for $200. I started to do more elaborate keyboard setups to see how the CPU would hold up. It typically runs from 30% to 50% of capacity (CPU and Memory) It actually boots and runs better than the i5. I hear the occasion gitch, but it actually seems to be getting better in time (or I'm rock and roll deaf.
I got a rack, an Airport Express, a Radial USB interface and a Nektar Panorama P6. It's starting to get expensive, but I'm emboldened by the actual quality for the sound and the flexibility of arranging for live performance. What used to take me two and three keyboards to play, I can now fit on one performance patch.
OK, now the question... am I at the limits of this little Core 2 Duo? Should I upgrade the i5 with more RAM and a bigger SSD and use that? Should I get a new(er) i7 and bite the $1,500 bullet for the additional RAM and SSD?
I see that most of you are running pretty nice Macbook Pros with i7 and lots of everything. My needs are modest; am I OK?
BTW, I want to run a Mac Mini in a box because I don't want to carry a laptop out in the open. If I was doing bigger shows I wouldn't care but I play some rowdy bars and constantly have folks hanging off me while I'm playing. It's fun, but hard on gear. If you can't drop it or dip it in beer, it won't last long where I work.
Matt Donnelly

Rule of thumb: newer and faster is better. But, depending the complexity of your needs you may be OK with an older Mac. Some glitches that happen in a live performance are due to loss of communication with USB or Firewire inputs, so make sure they're secure. I recently upgraded from a 2010 Mac Mini 2.6 dual core with 16 GB RAM, which was used live for nearly four years, to the latest Mac Mini 3.0 i7 with 16 GB RAM and a 500 GB SSD. I was getting an occasional stuck note with the older one. The new one is rock solid. Some of my patches may have up to a dozen channel strips mapped to three keyboards. The Mini is mounted in a rack next to a MOTU Ultralite Hybrid. It is a good idea to map a panic button on your keyboard to controller # 123(all notes off). Also, you might want to invest in a battery backup power supply(APC, Cyberpower, etc.-$40-$60) to protect your Mac against power loss, which can damage you hard drive.
