Olympus E-1 users: How are your conversions?

I just bought Aperture for use with my Olympus E-1 RAW files. The Aperture default conversions really aren't bad, but just aren't as "photo-like" as camera jpegs from the E-1. In particular, I think the Aperture defaults have a magenta color shift.
Anyone else have an opinion? I would be willing to share files to demonstrate what I am talking about, but I don't think I can post them to this forum.

With version 1.1 the conversions are better but still have a hi-tech moire pattern to them in places (especially when the image is sharpened). (kind of like faint circuit boards) Apparently they do not print but I can see them on the monitor.
The early version of Aperture was so bad it was unusable. As for the colour shift have not noticed yet. The E1 is not quite compatable with Aperture unfortunately but hopefully will get better soon. The program offers a lot of other possibilites and advantages.
The best conversion I think are still with Olympus Studio and of course you can shoot right into the computer with it. The Mac version of Studio is not Universal so it does not tether with any of the Intel MAcs yet. I have my MAc Book Pro set up as a dual boot and am using the Studio program with Windows XP for now.

Multiple Leads per Account - how are your companies managing this?

hi Experts
Question regarding accounts with multiple leads. How are other companies handling this in CRM? Currenlty, we have a two lead types, one captures customer first point of interest with our company and the second type represents all of the other interests the customer has with us. We are trying to simply to one lead type but Marketing is having an issue with how to manage the first point of contact and the point of contact which triggers the sale.
Basically, I would like to hear from other experts on how their companies model their leads and manage them.
Thanks,
Chris

hi, you can add a customize flag field in your lead document to present the first contact. And you can make the sales staff to tick this flag, or add a customize logic in the order save BADI to check if the lead is the first document for this BP, it so the set the flag aotumactically in the BADI.

How are your sales?

Thinking about how successful my books have been. My most popular books gets about 5 downloads a day.
What are yours like? Trying to get a seonse of which topics are most successful to steer my next book

My paid book is just a vanity project with low expectations and I don't mind sharing experiences. After the first few weeks, it's settled into an average of 5 sales per week.
What's interesting (to me anyway) is that price doesn't seem to matter much. It was originally priced at 2.99 and around the first of July I lowered the price to .99 thinking it would sell more, but it didn't, sales remained the same. In the middle of August, I rased it to 1.99 and again, sales are about the same. I'm thinking I may as well put it back to 2.99 and probably will do that soon.
Also, around the first of July I released a free book that contains a couple advertisments for my paid book. This book averages about 8 downloads per day but some days as much as 20 and for the first time ever today it was zero. I wish there was a way to know how many, if any, sales of the paid book come from the ad in the free book, but there just isn't. It's apparent that it doesn't help much, if at all.
It could be a demographic issue. At least half the downloads of the free book are from non-US stores but almost all the paid book downloads are from the US store.
More to come!

Window views as seen by users - how are they stored?

Forgive me if this is obvious, but I can't find the answer to this. When a client computer (running Tiger) logs into our server (running Tiger Server) and opens a mount point, he might see it in icon view or list view. If in list view, it might be sorted by name ascending or descending, or by date, etc. It seems that the settings established by the first person who ever logged into the system and mounts a particular share are the ones that everyone else will see for ever. How can these be changed so all users see the same view when they log in?

To fix this:
1) Delete the '.DS_Store' file in the root level of the sharepoint you're trying to change the view for.
2) Create a temporary, non-admin user in WGM. Set that user as the owner of the sharepoint (no need to change group or everyone, and no need to propagate permissions down the tree).
3) Log in to the sharepoint over the network as the temp non-admin user, and set the views as you like.
4) Log out and log in as another user - views should be set.
5) Undo step 2, by putting original owner of sharepoint back.

How Are Your Controllers Setup for BYOD/Guest and OEA

I am in the process of building a new wireless network. The network will include BYOD/Guest and OEA for teleworkers using ICE and MobileIron for MDM. In the past I have setup an anchor controller for guest, but for this design I have a cost constraint that prevents me from adding the anchor controller. I know the Cisco SE’s push to include an anchor controller in the DMZ for this design, but I wanted an unbiased opinion from folks who may have a similar design and how your controllers are setup. For this design can I deploy a BYOD/Guest and OEA network without a DMZ controller?
Thanks in advance.

UK users - How's your network ?

Whats everyone's experience like with the network your on?
Hows your 3g coverage and would you recommend your network?
I'm with orange am hoping when they flick the switch my coverage gets better then what is is because we'll be able to use t-mobile. Aside from sliding service from orange they are OK but i wouldn't rush to recommend them, and the poor 500mb data allowance is rubbish.
Hows everyone getting on with their networks who's the best?

How are your app sales and download numbers?

Does anyone want to share their app sales and download numbers?
Perhaps with knowledge of which apps are doing well and which are not doing so well we can all better understand how to present our apps on the marketplace.

The productivity category seems to suffer on Mondays
Our downloads suffer on Wed and Thur.
There do appear to be some intra week cycles going on.
Quite frankly, we've made no progress on the understanding 85% drop in download cliff we've gone over. I don't wish that on any app developer. Especially in this environment of lots of questions and no answers :(

Adobe Creative Suite 3 users - how are things going with Leapord?

I am a graphic designer as a profession. I am strongly considering picking up a copy of Leapord but I want to make sure things are smooth and functional with the Creative Suite before I dive in. Any horror stories or perks?

Upgrade on my Macbook went fine with no problems for Photoshop.
However if you do what I did for the desktop there is much more hassle. I replaced my G5 with a new iMac so not only did I have to get all the files and applications over but then upgrade to Leopard as well. After a Super Duper backup of my old G5, I deactivated Photoshop. After deactivation, you should use the Photoshop install disk to completely remove CS3 from the old computer before starting Migration Assistant. I did not do that but moved the CS3 folder to the trash figuring migration assistant would not move it. Evidently there are files that are installed by Adobe but are not removed unless you run the uninstaller. Migration went very well for my files and other applications. There was no sign that anything CS3 was moved.
After I verified that things were working correctly on my new iMac, I ran the Leopard upgrade. That also went well with no problems. Then I tried to install Photoshop on the new machine and it would not install. I had to run the uninstall option first. Evidently there are many shared components that had to be removed. After successful uninstall, reinsert the install disk, Photoshop installed normally. I then reactivated and all is well.

How are your iPhones shipping?

For those of you with preorders that have actually shipped (lucky you, by the way, and congratulations!), what does your reference number on the shipment look like? Some combo of your location and order number? Your order ref? Or just your order? Shipping by FedEx or UPS? Wondering if I can try to discover my tracking number, if any, via the carrier. Thanks!

My order is being shipped via FedEx, my tacking number is 12 digits long, but my purchase order number is a combination of my location followed by an underscore followed by 4 zeros and my order number.
Example: W123456_000091xxx

British Columbia BC users - how are you dealing with the PST Exemption for Youth Products?

Hi BC Community,
Reaching out to everyone and anyone to help with this. Has anyone had any luck (in British Columbia) dealing with PST Exemption for Youth product? More specifically if a product has a full tax item (12%) and a Youth Exempt Item (5%) in the cart, at the same time.
As you know, if you add to British Columbia Tax Codes (BC-12% and BC-5%) and you have product in your cart, like the above mentioned - the Destination State overrides any product level Tax Codes.
Looking for some help with this one.
Thanks,
Aaron

Canadian BC users, how are you dealing with HST, GST and PST/QST?

Hi, I'm new here and I've been building my first BC eCommerce site for a client for almost a year. It's a business to business site, dealing with about 5000 SKUs. It's currently in trial mode, and we're about to go live with it. I have a problem with taxes I hoped I'd be able to sort out, but haven't found a solution.
My client's head office is in Ontario and they sell from there, and also from Quebec, though online sales will be limited from Ontario for now. Ontario, like B.C., where I am, and a number of other provinces have HST. The remaining provinces have GST and PST/QST, except Alberta, which only has GST. My client sells thoughout Canada, and also to the U.S.
Scenario 1) When one sells from an HST province to a customer in another HST province, the seller must collect and remit the HST for the buyer's province. For example, I work from B.C. with 12% HST, and my client has 13% HST in Ontario. I have to invoice them for my services, collecting and remitting 13% HST.
Scenario 2) When one sells from any province to a customer in a non-HST province other than Quebec, the seller charges GST and is encouraged, and depending on the province they are selling to, required, to register for that province's PST and collect and remit that tax as well. Otherwise the customer is required to self-assess the PST on the purchase.
Scenario 3) When one sells from any province to a customer in Quebec, they must apply the GST to the purchase, and then apply the QST (Quebec Sales Tax) to that total. Again, out of province sellers are expected to collect and remit the QST.
Scenario 1 is fine. Currently I've set up all HST provinces with their corresponding rate.
Scenario 2 is problematic from a legal taxation standpoint. I've set up all GST+PST provinces and Quebec with 5% GST only. This will not be acceptable to my client as their sales volumes are quite high and they have to remit other province's PST.
Scenario 3 seems impossible on BC, but will become a lesser problem until January 2013, when Quebec changes to Scenario 2 (i.e. the QST will no longer piggy-back the GST but will be raised so there is no change to the total tax)
Further, most businesses will want to see the GST and PST appear separately on the invoice, not calculated together as seems to be the case now.
Has anyone managed to set up GST and PST/QST in the system, so both taxes appear in the cart/checkout process, and separately on the invoice?
Thanks for any assistance!

This might require the discussion to move to the advanced code development section, but I'll post it here first anyway.
So after about 2 weeks, I'm not sure there's a solution to this. I've tried a variety of JavaScript and JQuery approaches to do a show/hide of the appropriate tag based on the province chosen in the {tag_shippingoptions} drop down. The cleanest way was with JQuery and I got it to work outside of Business Catalyst, but not when implemented in my cart.
The problems seems to be threefold.
1. The onchange of the "shipping state" dropdown calls ApplyTaxRate() in an unmodifiable back-end .js file. If I try to have local JS or JQ work on the same function call to do my show/hide, not only does the show/hide not work, but it breaks communication with the back-end .js so no taxes get calculated/updated.
2. If I create my own shipping menus calling the same functions (acutally just copy/pasted the inspected HTML), the taxes update OK, but the menu selections don't persist, AND if I then inject my show/hide, the show/hide doesn't work and all the functionality of the ApplyTaxRate function breaks.
3. If I try to call an additional function for the show/hide, from the onchange of my own menu, the ApplyTaxRate function works, but the additional fucntion doesn't work as it does outside of BC.
Here is my partial code. Any help?
<div class="shippingStateDiv"><span id="shippingStateSpan">Destination State<br />
            </span><select onchange="ApplyTaxRate(this.value,4638834,1,1,332304);taxDisplay(this.value);" class="shippingDropDown" id="shippingState" name="shippingState">

How are Sprint iPhone speeds in San Diego?

I heard about how many people experience very slow speeds on Sprint with the iPhone 4s. Is that a problem that affects most people in a given location, or is anything being done to fix it? How are your speeds with it, especially if you are in San Diego?
I heard that in some places it's ok and others it's very slow, and I heard where it's slow on the iPhone, Android phones on Sprint are ok, and I know the iPhone is just as fast as Android phones on Verizon, so I'm confused about what the problem is. Still, I am interested in an iPhone and am trying to figure out the scope of the problem.

Thanks slattum99. By any chance can you check speedtest.net's app to see what the speed is exactly? I'm guessing by "good" you mean around 1Mbps, but I ended up getting the iPhone with AT&T and that gets me around 4Mbps. Maybe by the time my contract is through Sprint's speeds will improve even more.

How is your intel IMac ?

Hello all,
I'm soon to be leaving the MS world - I work with them daily as a system tech/MCSE and I have seen for yeard how they act/patches, etc....
I going to replace a 6 year old Gateway notebook which is runing ME and Linux. The notebook is really too SLOWWWW to run Linux, if not I would run Linux, and I can't do more upgrades.
So ---- I initially wanted an IMac once the Macbook came out I started thinking MB. But ----- I reas about alot of MB problems - run hot, random power off, white notebooks turn yellow....and I don't want to gamble.
How are your Intel IMac's ----- any problems - I'm not going to buy tomorrow, just want to get my options lined up. I may wait to see if the new Intel chips come on IMac.
Please share your experiences.
Thanks,
Bob

I just purchased my iMac this past weekend so I haven't had a lot of time to mess around with it. But so far I think it's great. I have Office 2004 for Mac installed and Photoshop Elements 3 and while they are slower than on a G5, they don't seem slow. If I didn't know they were running through Rosetta, I would think the speed was just fine. The UB versions should really fly.
All the normal apps that came with the iMac are fast - Mail, Safari, iLife '06, etc. I can add iWork '06 to the list as well. I thought my upgraded G4 was fast but I can tell a big difference. Everything is just faster on the new iMac.
Regardless of whether you get a MacBook, MacBook Pro or iMac, you should get at least 1MB of RAM.

How difficult to create a user login area, and where to start?

I have a website which I created in Microsoft Expression Web 4. I would like to add a user login area and tie it to an existing SQL database which is updated frequently. I am not sure where to start or how likely I am to succeed. It is for a client's
website, so I am willing (and hopefully able) to learn, but do not want it to turn into a long drawn out project.
I can code in html and css and use java scripts. I don't know visual basic or how to work within the database (it will be provided by the client). I'm open to any advice on how easy or difficult this will be without other forms of coding knowledge, and would
love any advice on the best place to start. I have found some tutorials and downloaded MS Visual Studio Express 2013, since it was coming up as the best program for this.
Thank you for any advice!

You want to create a login in SQL? any way you need one to access the database. You may need to contact your DBA to do it as you maynot be authorized to do it. Use below link to know creating SQL logins/Users.
