Ppgrade Dilema

Hello. I recently updated and reinstalled my OS from OS 10.4.9 to 10.4.11.Using iTunes version 4.7.1. I placed my old iTunes Library file in Home/Music/iTunes but my tunes are not showing up in the Library........anyways .......I'll probably figure that one out, I assume its just a mater of importing it properly into iTunes. My bigger problem is that when I go to the iTunes Store, and select an artist or album in order to view the songlist and possibly purchase a song..........there is no songs being listed under any of the albums regardless of which album or artist I select. This seems strange as this version of iTunes was working for me with my old OS.I'm therefore wondering if I should update to a newer version of iTunes to solve this problem? If so......which version? I think 9.0.2 is the latest but wondering if this is a "stable version"? I've learned through past experiences that the latest version is not always the best version.......sometimes they're riddeled with bugs and instability.Would appreciate any advice with this dilemma. Thanks.

The iTunes Store will not work with that old version of iTunes. There have been too many changes to the Store that require newer software. So you will need to upgrade. You'll also need to upgrade QuickTime and Safari as well.
I think 9.0.2 is the latest but wondering if this is a "stable version"?
I have it on several systems and have had no problem, so I would consider it "stable". That doesn't mean that problems aren't possible, but the chances are that you'll have no issue.

Thanks for this mha007 - I can now open FF with a new profile. Can I copy my settings from the old profile or will this bring over the same problem, maybe a corrupt file. If it would bring the same problem, is there any way I can check which file is corrupt, apart from taking them over one by one?

Step 1
Remove "MacKeeper" as follows.
"MacKeeper" has only one useful feature: it deletes itself.
Note: These instructions apply to the version of the product that I downloaded and tested in early 2012. I can't be sure that they apply to other versions.
IMPORTANT: "MacKeeper" has what the developer calls an “encryption” feature. In my tests, I didn't try to verify what this feature really does. If you used it to “encrypt” any of your files, “decrypt” them before you uninstall, or (preferably) restore the files from backups made before they were “encrypted.” As the developer is not trustworthy, you should assume that the "decrypted" files are corrupt unless proven otherwise.
In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Applications
from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-A. The "MacKeeper" application is in the folder that opens. Quit it if it's running, then drag it to the Trash. You'll be prompted for your login password. Click the Uninstall MacKeeper button in the dialog that appears. All the functional components of the software will be deleted. Reboot.
Failure to remove MacKeeper will result from neglecting any one of these points:
Quit MacKeeper before dragging it to the Trash.
Don't empty the Trash after dragging the application to it. Let MacKeeper delete itself.
Don't try to drag the MacKeeper icon in the Dock to the Trash.
Here are some general suggestions. If you want your computer to be usable, don't install crapware, such as “themes,” "haxies," “add-ons,” “toolbars,” “enhancers," “optimizers,” “accelerators,” "boosters," “extenders,” “cleaners,” "doctors," "tune-ups," “defragmenters,” “firewalls,” "barriers," “guardians,” “defenders,” “protectors,” most “plugins,” commercial "virus scanners,” "disk tools," or "utilities." With very few exceptions, this stuff is useless, or worse than useless.
The more actively promoted the product, the more likely it is to be garbage. The most extreme example is the “MacKeeper” scam.
The only software you should install is that which directly enables you to do the things you use a computer for — such as creating, communicating, and playing — and does not modify the way other software works. Never install any third-party software unless you know how to uninstall it.
Step 2
Restore from the last backup that predates the unwanted changes.

Bit of a B.T Dilema ?

Hi All..I,m kind of in a dilema & puzzled It says on Open Reach website that my Exchanhe ( sg6 4pr ) is now Accepting Orders for FTTC but on the B.T Checker it says i,m not due until March 31st , well i posted on here and was told it might be end of June until they connect the cabinet ,what i,m wondering is it worth calling B.T to ask what this means ? seems strange one website tells you one thing and another tells you something else

yeah good idea at least i,m not right in the back and beyond like some of the people in the uk ,who will never seen fibre for years ! I have a friend who lives ina village ,but because they are outside of the main village high street they can,t get fibre at this point in time

Upgrade Dilema.....

Fellow aperture users,
I have been using aperture since its initial release on my G4 powerbook 1.33ghz 1.5gb and although at times it is sluggish, I persevere. I should mention, I shoot with a Nikon D70 in RAW format, so my files are only approx 5mb each.
I am considering upgrading my system, but am in a dilema as to what to go for, either the new mac book pro, or a Power Mac G5 DC 2.0GHz /512MB /160GB /SD /GF6600LE.
I would appreciate any feedback as to which performs better using aperture, as well as generally.
i tend to feel I would be better with the mac book, as I like to have my files when I travel, and that way could get away with just one machine, rather than 2. However, I use photoshop also. How are people gettign around this without the intel version? Does it work ok for the meantime? can you still open a file direct from aperture?
thanks in advance,
Svendo

The MacBook Pro will be faster than that particular G5.
If you want a faster G5, you need a couple things:
1) 512 MB of RAM won't work at all. 2 GB is a practical minimum.
2) You need the 7800 GT graphics card and not the GF6600LE. Video card is VERY important. VERY.
Photoshop will be a bit slow on the MacBook. How much are you using it? Adobe's saying it's around 9 months before a UB version of it ships, so do keep that in mind. From a rough guess let's say Photoshop on a MacBook is about the same speed as on a 667 Powerbook G4.

Dilema over Plant / Organization Structure

Hi,
We are a Service Provider Company based in Orissa.
We receive Contracts from other Companies & execute them across India (different Project Sites). We have different Project Site across India.
In SAP, do we need to create all the Project Locations as PLANT.
Or, we can simply create a SINGLE PLANT & treat all the Project Sites Storage Locations.
As of now I have treated all the Site Locations as Plant.
For example, in Jharkhand, we have got two offices, one in Ranchi & another in Dhanbad. The Ranchi Site is taking care of three different projects running near by & Dhanbad Site is taking care of two different rojects. We have created both Ranchi & Dhanbad as Plants.
But while discussing the Organization Structure with our seniors, some one suggested that there is no need to create Project Sites a Plant; the same can be managed using Storage Locations only. They have proposed to create Jharkhand as a Plant; Ranchi & Dhanbad as Storage Locations. The problem with me is that there are different people handling purchase & stock both in Ranchi & Dhanbad.
Also there is some Stock Transfer from Ranchi to some other States (for example, Guwahati & Silchar in Assam).
If we create Jharkhand & Assam as Plants and Ranchi ,Dhanbad, Guwahati & Silchar as Storage Locations, will be logically true.
I am in a dilema as I am not aware of how the Project Systems people map the Plants in SAP. Here in our case, the Project Systems guy is thinking of STATE as Plants while I personally think that Office Locations from where purchase & stock keeing is done as Plants.
I am confused about the process for transfering Materials among the locations (withinn and outside State)
Pls. guide.
Regards
Aditi..

Discuss with your client , How they are handling the procurement in Legacy..
IF you they are using de-centralized Procurement then you need to define the respective procurement centres as Plants.. (Which will allow you to address the taxes & Valuation of Material )
If they are using the sites only for monitoring the stocks & goods movements, then you need to define them as Sto Locations..
It all depends upon the inputs from the client & the Legacy business scenario..
Prepare a Presentation detailings the advantages & dis-advantages of defining as a Plant or Sto location..
First Discuss the same with your colleagues and then with the client..

IPod Touch restoring dilema

I'm trying to restore my iPod touch and all that I see, is the screen with the iTunes icon disc and usb cable. When it starts to restore, it gets stucked in the part where it says "+waiting for ipod+".I can see the Apple logo and a continuous loading bar. It just stays like that even after the whole night. I even tried it on a different computer, but the problem occurs as well. When I disconnect the usb cable it says: The IPOD "iPod" could not be restored. An unknown error occurred (9) Please help me, I've done everything that I've read, I even went to a local store, but they couldn't help me, it seems that the only thing they do it's sell, not help. The problem is that I live in Puerto Rico, and there aren't any Apple store, or at least in the area where I live. And to worsen my dilema, the product replacement option excludes Puerto Rico, I don't know why, because it's name is shown on the states list. All the help and support, would be appreciated, Thank you.

Disable all antivirus (do you also use Window defender?) and disable the computer's security software.

A dilema!

I know that this is a shot in the dark. It's highly unlikely that anyone reading these forums has had intimate use of BOTH of the following laptops. I.E. - has used both and can form an opinion on the tradeoffs given the hardware differences.
A505-S6025 has a Core i3 330M processor (i5 chipset). Discrete video is the Geforce 300M with 512MB onboard memory. I purchased this laptop, 12 days ago and love it's performance. It is a bit marginal, in gaming, but obviously it is not designed as a primary gaming laptop. Paid $799.
Now... A505-S6986 has a Core2Duo T6600 processor. Not sure on the chipset, but my last gaming rig I built with the desktop version of that processor. Think the chipset was 975 or something like that...right before the 'i' motherboards were released. Video is the GT 230M with 1GB onboard memory.
So this is my dilema. Clearly, the i3 processor is nice and probably will whip the c2d on processing/multitasking.
Also what is clear is that the GeForce GT 230M would stomp the mainstream 300M. So, what I need to know is how does this level out in the end?
Is the performance loss in processing power (cpu) versus the gain in gpu power mutual? ie... Does the gain make up for the loss...over all.
Couple things need to be thought about here: different motherboards/chipsets will affect things. Might also be differences in power consumption/cooling as well. c2d is a bit old. My gaming desktop is now 3yrs old with a c2d. So, that is another concern.
Any thoughts or suggestions are welcomed. They just put the S6986 on sale for $599 at Office Depot. This is why I'm in a dilema. I still have 3 days before I'm literally stuck with this laptop.
Only other caveat is that the latter laptop comes with Home version of Windows 7. I always use pro versions as I like control over my operating system and group policy without using registry hacks. Only costs $89 to upgrade to pro, from what I understand.

Solved!
Go to Solution.

I think I've already come to a conclusion. Writing the initial post just helped me think about it. This is even after comparing both gpu's and cpu's separately.
I'm going to stick with the i3. It's very snappy. 4 cores (2 virtual) may not seem like a lot, but couple that with the lower power (read: less heat) and the noticeable performance boost while multitasking (i do that, a lot, especially editing photos while doing other things).
My desktop E6600 c2d can barely handle Vista. I shudder to think what a mobile version of that die process would mean for Win7. I can live with 'marginal' performance gaming for the laptop. When I game, I prefer the desktop with the 40" Samsung 1080p hdtv anyway (yes, it's my monitor...not a tv).
Thanks for reading. Thoughts still welcomed but I think I'm gonna stick with the S6025 after weighing all of the pros/cons.

Hi jamjar62, you know you are the only person who can answer that question.
Why not just leave well alone for a few weeks/months and see how things go. You might save yourself sheds of money.
I just had Infinity installed about three weeks ago and I'm doing the same for now. Down the road if I feel like I need a better modem/router or need to free up a power socket I may consider getting something else.

A new dilema, code review for newbie

OK, now my dilema is taking input values from an applet and working them into my methods. I have read several tutorials, but I'm not finding any help. So far, I have written this code which does not complie (as expected). My methods seem solid, but my integration of the methods into an applet is far from decent. I have a feeling that I'm just going in circles here.
package membership;
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import javax.swing.*;

public class MemberFee extends JApplet
String typeMem;
char memType;

boolean endProgram = false;
//DecimalFormat twoDigit = new DecimalFormat("0.00"); //page 171-172 in New Dietel Book
public void init ()
while (!typeMem == 'Q')
memType = JOptionPane.showInputDialog("Enter Type of Member: ");
typeMem = memType.charAt (0);
typeMem = Character.toUpperCase(typeMem);
if (typeMem == 'F')
numYears = JOptionPane.showInputDialog("Enter number of years:");

//end kids calculation
if (numYears >= 2)
memFee =2500.00;
else
memFee= 3000.00 + kFee;
return memFee;
//end family method
This is what I think my problems are:
1. I am confusing java application commands with java applet commands (shouldn't they be similar?)
2. Can applets even allow for pop up dialog boxes?
This problem keeps me up at night. Any help would be great.
THanks,

CS5 Graphic card dilema

Hello,
i'm building a new PC for use of only Photoshop CS5 extended + Illustrator (OS=Windows 7 64bit).
I have chosen all the components (i5-760, 8 GB DDR3, P55 chipset etc...) except the graphic card.
Main dilema is getting over these two cards:
1. Sapphire HD 6850 1 GB
2. MSI GTX 460 Hawk 1 GB
Since ive had a lot of problems with AMD/ATI drivers on HD3850 card (BSOD with catalyst), i was thinking to "switch" over on nVidia (there's many info on the web regarding Adobe support for nVidia CUDA, OpenCL, etc...)-
The only requirements for the graphic card is: SILENCE and STABILITY (drivers).
I would like to know if there is anyone with any experience on usage of these cards (6850 or GTX 460), so the questions are:
a) Image quality on nVidia (colors etc?) + driver/openGL experience?
b) any problems with OpenGL functions on HD 6850 (basic, normal, advanced available)?
Any help and comments is appreciated.
Thank you in advance.

The only thing i have to say about normal updates. Frequent driver updates to me does not say, Ohh they provide good support." It tells me Ohh they found lots of bugs, but thats me, I have a beta tester mind frame.
It's not frequent, it's monthly (as in "on a plan"). Monthly driver updates don't say any such thing. It says "ATI has a clear policy of supporting their cards with software updates after the sale", and "They have their software development act together". A company that avoids making updates in today's environment may do so because it's expensive or risky to do so.
function(){return A.apply(null,[this].concat($A(arguments)))}
But as we know there is no such thing as a perfect video driver set, if there was .. they would not have jobs.
You seem to be fixated on new releases being because of bugs...
Software is never "done", so it cannot be "perfect". When new functionality is being added, new releases bring that functionality out to users of existing hardware. Think about that for a moment... At first blush it doesn't seem to benefit ATI sales to make it possible to play the latest game on a card someone bought a few years ago. But think how it builds brand loyalty. I suppose I'm a poster child for that.

Wireless Network printing dilema

I have a Photosmart 2525 All in One. I have Apple MacBooks/Ipads at home, and have just upgraded from ADSL broadband to cable broadband. The printer was previously ethernet cable connected into the ADSL modem, but now the printer and cable modem are in different parts of the house. How do I get the printer to connect to the cable modem to enable network printing. Reading the manual it looks like I need a wired solution, but that is not physically possible. I have an Apple Airport device I can plug into the printer, but I still cant seem to get the printer to connect to the cable modem. Help!

ArchLinux on Macbook pro mid 2012 - Internet wifi dilema

Hello Everyone,
I've been using Arch Linux with i3wm in my machine for the past 20 days and I am really enjoying and learning a lot about everything. I have a real problem with my wifi, I can connect but after some minutes or even hours (sometimes) I need to turn it down and on again because it just stops working. I already searched a lot in the forum and I am getting stuck with this situation.
I am using
Wicd 1.7.3 (bzr-r933)
but already tried the networkmanager (nm-applet) and it's even worst.
I am posting some informations about my drivers.

I also disabled the dhcpcd.service because I read that it may cause some issues.
I imagine that this problem is due to some interferences happening between the packages I have installed to handle the wifi connection. I really need some guidance here.
Thank you guys. This is my first post in here and any Arch community forum, so if there are some wrong formatting above, please point out.
Thx!!

Hello,
I'm no pro, started using Arch recently myself. Not sure about disabling dhcpcd.service. However, you might try blacklisting unneeded modules, more on that in https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Kernel_modules. You may need to blacklist b43 and b43-legacy.
Here's how my /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf looks like:
blacklist bcma-pci-bridge
blacklist ssb
blacklist b43
blacklist brcmsmac
blacklist brcmfmac
blacklist bcma
install bcma-pci-bridge /bin/false
install ssb /bin/false
install b43 /bin/false
install brcmsmac /bin/false
install brcmfmac /bin/false
install bcma /bin/false

Apple id dilema

way back in 2008 i created my id with apple with @mac.com. then apple changed it to @me.com then i got a free @icloud.com. i am happy with icloud.com but my problem is i desperately want to change my id's identifier. i,e, [email protected] there seems to be no way.
making another apple id does give me that identifier. however, all my purchases from all these years of using apple devices are on [email protected] and using [email protected] just for communications on a single device seems complicated. whats worse is all my documents from my mac are on sandboxes of various iWorks apps of [email protected]
while its ok to not let people change their id's identifier, apple should atleast let people transfer their purchases to a new id if they verify them selves with credit card information!? there seems to be no way to achieve that either.
also, i dont know if i can provide my new icloud id as a contact address with an apple developer account in id "identifier1". i dont mind if identifier 1 does all the store pucrhases and developer account work but i want identifier 2 to be my contact id. simple.
is there anyway to get that done?

It seems like there's a lot of confusion online about this, so here's what I *think* is going to happen.
In your iOS5 settings app there will be an iCloud login section AND a seperate iTunes Store login section. So, everyone in your family can get there own iCloud login which they use for Mail, Calendars, Contacts, Reminders, etc and these are all independent.
http://www.cl.ly/1q0E122M1h12263g2X20 is a screenshot from the settings app in iPad iOS5.
Then have everyone use the same original Apple ID for the Store stuff which will be for Music, Apps and Books. This way your personal info is kept seperate but the store purchases are shared. As you and your family might have different tastes in media you might want to turn off automatic downloads tho.
Longer term you might want to try and stop using the same Store account tho and go independent from each other before you've invested TOO much in a shared library. You can use Home Sharing to share music and media between each other if you're under the same roof.
Hope that helps!
