Part II of question posted right before this one

The movie I'm making is of still photos that I've scanned in. I'm not importing anything from my camcorder.

Wow, totally disgusted by FF support. THERE IS NONE. At least I used to get some answer, now NONE. FF Fail.
I sent you a COMPLETE crash report, and you don't even reply. So unprofessional.

I just bought Final Cut Studio right before this new version...

I just bought Final Cut Studio right before this new version came out. Am I eligible for a free upgrade to the new software?

I'm sorry, but these replies have been ludicrous. To actually answer your question, I would think they would honour their usual 14-day return policy, but you would need to speak with Apple directly.
As to the whole "which is better" debacle, there is no doubt that Final Cut Pro 7 is the more polished and fleshed out piece of editing software, and what everyone is most familiar with to boot. But let's be honest, what do you expect for software that is ten years old versus three days. The fact of the matter is that pretty much everyone editing with Apple's software in the not so distant future is going to be editing on Final Cut Pro X, hands down. It's fundamentally that much better. You nay-sayers out there, if you don't switch to Adobe or Avid, you will go to FCP X! There is a reason for that, and there will be an even stronger reason for that with every update. People don't seem to understand that.
In your situation, if you don't own either, it makes a whole lot more sense to me for you to just roll with the hiccups FCP X brings if you can at all handle it. If not, you are going to spend $999 now on FCS 3 and another $400 in the near future when you decide to take the leap. Is there something worth $1000 to you in FCS 3 that FCP X doesn't offer? If so, then great, go ahead. It's an amazing piece of software. If not, enjoy the head start on what editing is going to look like for the next ten years.
All the best talking with Apple. The way that they are pushing FCP X I would hope you don't run into any trouble.

Thinkpad T400 reboot after post (right before boot)

After update bios to 2.03 i noticed, that sometimes my thinkpad reboots after post (right after system booting). First I ignored this issue, because i thought it's caused by vista cd in drive, so i was removing it and everything seemd to be fine. But now i know that this is compleatly cd-independed. It happens in almost every second boot, and is independed on boot priority or boot media (cd, usb, hdd). I tried to downgrade bios to 1.20 and 1.23, but it still happening.
If anyone know what is going on, please let me know. I'm little stressed.
I noticed one more think. After change to "diagnostic boot" in bios, after reboot I hear beep, which is clearly longer, than when reboot not occurs.

This is still happening... but I think I've noticed some things.
I think what the problem is, and I'm sure this'll sound retarded, is Arch is restarting "too quickly". I say this because there are some times when reboot works properly. When this happens, I notice all of the hardware shut completely down for about a second. I hear sort of a "click" indicating to me that discs have stopped and power is off, like the very last sound you hear when you completely shut down a computer. Instead of a blank screen, I can tell the monitor is completely shut off. After about a second of this, everything comes back on, the Thinkpad splash screen appears, and then goes away and I am taken to GRUB. Everything is peachy.
When the reboot fails to work properly, however, I don't get that total shutdown "feeling".. no click sound, and my screen just goes blank, but not totally off. The Thinkpad splash screen reappears sooner, but this is where I hang and eventually get the error I reported in the original post.
I hope this additional info helps, as this problem is really annoying.

Duplicate post, please delete this one. sorry

this is a duplicate post. sorry guys, didnt mean to.

When I encountered this in CP 1 or 2, it was because 'export
as .zip
file' (or whatever that option is) was not checked. You gotta
publish to
a .zip file to get the supporting SCO files...?

A few questions on N810 before buying one

Hey All!
I am planning to gift N810 to my brother and I have a few questions. I have been doing some research on the following questions I feel there is a mixed feeling amongst users.
How good is N810 to be used as a multimedia player?
Some of the reviewers on Amazon.com say that if someone wants to use N810 primarily as a multimedia player, then he/she should look for something else. What are your experiences?
How good is the video quality? How is the audio playback?
I understand that video player is not as intuitive as other players like iPod Touch. Is this a deal breaker?
I have also seen some youtube video reviews that say that web browsing/ web page loading is not quick. Now assuming that internet would be primarily used for checking emails and sending one liner replies and using meebo for messaging, how does the device perform for these uses?
Can you use webcam on meebo for video chat?
My brother would use the device as a multimedia player + email + chat (video chat on google chat would be a bonus) For these uses how much would you rate N810 on the scale of 1 to 10 with 10 being the best.
How would you rate it against iPod Touch 8 GB 2nd generation?
Thanks much for your time!

I owned the N810 for about a month and I liked it a lot. However, the main thing I used it for was the RSS feeder on the homescreen. I would prop it up on my desk at work and just glance over to get all the interesting updates from various websites I follow. The second thing I used it for was web browsing and the third was using it for Rhapsody.
Now, I have to say where I was very disappointed was video playback and music playback, so I don't think you will like it. I downloaded a very low quality episode of a tv show from google video and it could barely play it back without constantly freezing and playing flash videos like youtube was generally the same. But I think what really bothered me was the scrolling through web pages because I would constantly trigger links, accidentally opening new pages anfd then taking forvever to get back to where I was. The music playback was disappointing because I own Nokia bluetooth stereo headphones and it's not compatible with that. I was able to connect them but the sound so atrocious it was unlistenable. So, I can only recommend it if you don'tplan on browsing sites that have flash video, or want to listen to music wirelessly, and video playback in general is very poor. But if youy want a three hundred dollar RSS feeder then I can recommend it. In all honesty, I got it because I was disappointed with the web browsing on my N95 and since I have replaced it with the 5800 it makes up for those problems, so if anything get that instead.

My daughter was trying to update her itouch and somehow lost everything on it. She had a different ipod before this one, and I think we never registered this one, so it seems the computer restored her itouch to what was on her previos ipod. Any ideas?

My daughter was trying to update her itouch and somehow lost everything on it, but itunes seems to have restored it back to what was on an older ipod she used to have. I don't think we ever registered her itouch, and I know she didn't back it up to the computer. Any chance of getting her stuff back? She lost hundreds of pictures.

- You can redownload iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
- On the computer go to iTunes>Preferences>Devices and see if there is a backup of her iPod.
Note that the backup does not included synced media like apps and music.
- Is she update the iPod via iTunes on other then the computer she syncs with the media on the iPod gets erased. Same for if on the syncing computer if the media was not in the iTunes library.

This page has .png files of old logo 128*128 works well:
https://blog.mozilla.org/faaborg/2009/06/18/the-new-firefox-icon/
Use this page to convert to .ico file:
http://www.convertico.com/
Save the created icon to local computer.
Then download this and use to replace icon, you need to load your FF application, change appropriate icons, and save. FF can not be running when you save.
Also go to desktop and taskbar, right click icon, go to properties, and change icon.

I am being charged for 3 GB that apparently Verizon hadn't caught up on that I had used!! The last night of my cycle I called and checked and I had .5 GB left and right before midnight when the cycle ended it caught up on 3 GB!! I now have to pay for this

SO CRAPPY!!! SO FED UP WITH VERIZON!! WE ARE GETTING SCREWED OVER!! I am being charged for 3 GB that apparently Verizon hadn't caught up on that I had used!! The last night of my cycle I called and checked and I had .5 GB left and right before midnight when the cycle ended it caught up on 3 GB!! I now have to pay for this data I know I did not use! I never have my data on!! Now it says I used 7 GB last month!!!

Data usages are always estimated...I don't believe any carrier post data usage in real time. I've had my data increased due to a large chunk being unaccounted for at the time of my cycle. Thankfully when I'm billed for it...it has never pushed me over my limit.

Ultra 40 hangs right before memory test during POST

While I do enjoy using my Sun Ultra 40 Workstation, there is one thing that bothers me. And I am wondering if I can get a help from you guys.
Before I describe what I am experiencing, I politely ask you not to tell me to go other place for using Windows O/S. :)
Anyway, here's what happens:
Ultra 40 hangs right before Mem check during POST (Power-On Self-Test) when rebooting after running h/w monitoring software such as Speedfan or EVEREST Ultimate Edition to see CPU temps or Fan speed of my Workstation.
It seems that my keyboard is working since I can warm-reboot by pressing Ctrl+Alt+Del and I can see Num Lock light goes on when pressing Num Lock key, but that's about it.
Even rebooting my system (either cold-boot or warm-boot) won't help me getting through POST. And I won't be able to go into the BIOS (CMOS) Setup Menu, since Menu screen comes up after Memtest during POST. As I stated before, it just doesn't do anything when it's supposed to run Memtest during POST. Plus there is no BIOS (CMOS) menu to turn Memtest off.
Only way to make my system to pass the POST process is to disconnect the actual power cord and reconnect it. Then it reboots fine.
Does anyone know what's going on?
Is this BIOS firmware related bug?
I am desperately seeking for help.

Unfortunately, this shining blue globe we all live on
is split into regions of responsibility as far as Sun's techsupport is concerned.
Consequently, system serial numbers are registered for their respective geographical regions.
Asia and Pacific is referred to with an abbreviation of APAC.
Europe, Middle East, and Africa is the EMEA area for support.
The Western Hemisphere is further split. North America is one support region
and Central America is grouped with South America for their own support responsibilities.
In this way, Sun gets local people to help where the equipment is sold, without any language barriers.
You need to go back to your local support center, refer back to your case number,
and request they go through an escalation procedure for a second examination.
If this effects you there is a chance it may effect thousands of owners of that model computer.
They send it through escalation reviews in your APAC support,
and they may decide to open a North American case, for the sole purpose of a review of the issue.
(After a local escalation, they may not need to consult North America,
because there may already be an answer in a database that your first engineer overlooked.)
There is no mandatory rule that they must escalate out of their region.
Your local Sun Microsystems people get back to you on your local case number
when there is any sort of an answer.
This may all seem complicated or maybe have too many layers of procedure,
but it is done so that everyone in Sun gets it all documented
into the troubleshooting databases, and gets trained where to find the answers.

HT1583 When burning a DVD of photos and music from iDVD, the photos blur right before the transitions and the music has about 5 second glitches here and there before the music starts again. Is there any way to burn the DVD without this happening?

Each year I am in charge of making a slideshow of photos and music for my annual company meeting. I always use iDVD to set up my photos and music and then burn the DVD to play at the meeting. Every time I burn the DVD, it blurs right before the transition of the photo. It has always done this and I'm not sure why. It will also make the music glitch in a few spots for about 5 seconds or more. If I burn another DVD to try it again, the glitches will still be there, but in different spots. I've tried the highest quality of DVD's possible and this still happens. What can I do to fix this problem?

Try disabling transitions altogether!
There is a technical reason that this breakup happens - it is to do with how slideshows can be saved within the DVD specification, they can either be recorded as 'video streams' or as a collection of 'still images'.
When you add transitions iDVD has no option but to use a video stream, this can result in terrible 'breakup' because the mpeg 2 encoder isn't designed to handle scenes that are static with a sudden short change. You can see 'artefacts' in the video stream…
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compression_artifact
'Still image slideshows' avoid the issue altogether by only showing a static image, no video compression is used & because the scene doesn't transition so it shouldn't breakup.
NOTE: Music on the slideshow is irrelevant, both types can use a soundtrack.
I cannot remember if it is possible to force iDVD to only make still image slideshows, I always use DVD Studio Pro to correctly setup DVD's. I'd suggest you use the option to save the DVD to a disk image & then open that disk image so that DVD Player can preview it, that should save on the number of test disks you burn.
If you cannot make it avoid using video streams you may be ether off making your own video slideshow in iMovie & then import that into iDVD. It may eventually look better despite being a video stream!
iDVD isn't really condusive to professional levels of control.

Finder question: "right size this column"

Finder question: how do I get the "right size this column" feature to work automatically each time I open Finder or move between columns? The column widths reset each time I close/open Finder or move between columns.

Finder columns:
Option dragging the resize widget || will resize all columns, wide or narrow, all the same and seems to stick.
Otherwise:
Double clicking on the resize widget || will expand that column to show all.
Option double click on the resize widget || will temporarily resize all columns to the largest width needed..
The last option may help but it isn't permanent.

Thanks so much Meg. Unfortunately, iTunes is the program I use to perform syncing. I don't really have other outside options. It is also the location of the backup I would use to restore my phone, and my only way to reclaim important data. I am concerned that, since the last backup occurred when the "other" bar was only moderately huge (around 29G I think), that a backup would replicate the problem back onto my phone.
My contacts, etc. are all in address book and the calendar app on my Mac. As far as I know, iTunes is the way to get them back, but iTunes is where the problem is.
Any thoughts on this?

Change of ship-to party right before dispatch

have a client that consistently has to change the ship-to party right before dispatch. the client has customers that are dealers, who in turn have sub-dealers. the dealers very rarely accept shipment to their address, they want the delivery posted to the sub-dealers and this can change at the last minute. as of right now, the addresses for sub-dealers is not maintained by the client, but they would like to have this option. so, a 2 part question, do we have to maintain the addresses for the sub-dealers or can we use them as a one-time customer? and 2, how would be change the ship-to address last minute right before dispatch?
thanks a bunch!

Hi Astro,
Option 1 - Since most of the Deliveries are shipped to the Sub Dealers, it is better to maintain Ship to Party Master Record for these Sub dealers and assign the same to the Sold to Party. Here, you have to justify the correct Ship to Party and maintain or change in Sales Order before the Delivery is created.
Option 2 - Maintain one single Ship to Party for all the Sub Dealers and you can change the address of the Ship to party as required at the last minute before goods issue.
Hope this will be helpful to u. let me know if anything.
Rgds,
Ravi.

Imac G5 freezes, but mouse works. Wierd pixels right before it freezes.

Hello everyone (Miriam, I hope you find this post).
Problem:
I have an older imac G5 (20" - without isight). Worked fine for the longest time, then lately it started freezing at main screen. Mouse pointer works, but nothing is accessible. First, started freezing after 5-10 minutes of use. Then, in the span of a few days, it locked up right after entering the main screen (after blue apple screen startup).
What I did so far:
Following the imac manual, I did a hardware test after reading about logic boards and power supply issues. Used hardware utility from startup disc and everything passed. Therefore, I reasoned that it was a software issue.
Next, I used disc utilities to repair a few permissions and HD volume. Minor repairs done. Started getting passed blue OS loading screen, but still freezing at main screen.
Finally, I tried to reinstall my OS, using archive/install feature (don't want to fully reformat because I can't access files to back up). First disc - no problems. When it asked for second disc, comp froze again. Now, it freezes at blue screen, before blue apple loads the OS. Can't even get to main screen anymore. Tried it again, but same deal.
Question:
Any suggestions before I take it to apple? My warranty has long since expired, so I'm afraid of incurring large fees. I would try a full reformat, but there are certain files I need to backup, but can't do so due to the inability to even open a folder. Also, it'd be greatly appreciated if someone could point me to a thread relating to backing up files when comp freezes, therefore main screen inaccessible. If I could back up certain files, I could do a full HD reformat, then report the results here.
Not sure if this matters, but my imac version was one of the models that needed the free extended warranty for the power/capacitor issues. Repaired for free, no problems until now. Also, fan spins hard during startup, but very quiet during gray apple load screen - then freeze at blue screen. No hardware or software added recently.
Sorry for such a long post. I figured the more detailed the info., the better the responses would be. Thanks again Miriam for the redirect. I'm indebted to you!

I hate to say this, but the pixel anomalies indicate a faulty V RAM chip, which is soldered to the logic board
You may have more that one problem, the pixels being one, and the hard drive and/or the PSU being another.
At this point, you probably need to take it in and have it looked at, then you will have to decide whether it's worth repairing, or whether you will just get a new one.
In any case, please let me know what happens,
