Question about adding tracks from computer not your own

Hi, Before I ask my question I'll just describe the situation. I have a primary computer which is archaic in that it does not have a cd rom drive. Therefore, I have to download mp3's to put them on my playlist because I can't access them through cd. Now, my sister has a computer with a cd-rom drive and an itunes too. However, when I connect to her computer, itunes does not recognize my playlist and pretty much says that I have to erase my playlist in order to create a new one. So, I have to sacrifice the tracks I have in order to upload my cds in my ipod. Now the question which you all probably have guessed: What can I do so that this does not happen? I'd like to put some of my cd's on my ipod because I do like particular albums that is not necessarily available to download. Anyone who can help in bringing light to the situation would be great.

I'm not sure I understand you entirely, but you could put the CDs on the computer with a CD ROM drive and then boot that computer as a firewire drive to the computer without a CD ROM drive and then copy your music over.

Question About Adding Ram from other laptop to T-series Thinkpad

Hi,
I have a question about adding additional RAM. Right now I have a 4gb ram stick in the t510. I have an acer laptop which I do not need and there is a 4GB ram stick onboard (maybe two 2gb ram sticks) there in that older laptop. Would it be possible to add one stick of 2gb ram (or 4gb i need to check if it is 2 or 1) from the acer to the lenovo thinkpad making the total ram in the thinkpad over 4gb????
Thanks in advance

Hi Richk,
Yes, I am using a 64-bit operating system. I am running on windows 7. And as for reported incompatibilities....technically taking a RAM from another laptop and placing it in the laptop should be the same as purchasing a RAM card from ebay or something and putting into the laptop right?

Question About Copying Tracks From a CD Into iTunes

Newbie here.
I currenly have about 700 songs on my Ipod Touch. (I put them on there from several old CD's I have of Napster tunes which I obtained when Napster was, well, you know . . . let's just say I donwloaded these tunes a long, long time ago.)
Anyway - so now I want to load a commercial CD onto my Ipod. "Spamalot," as a matter of fact. I put the CD into my computer, open up iTunes and press the magic button to import all of the tracks from the CD into iTunes. And it does it, very quickly, as a matter of fact.
The only problem is that all of the songs on the CD (25 of them) are scattered throughout the 700 songs already in my library. I have to spend way too much time hunting them down and schlepping them into my newly created Spamalot playlist.
Surely there is a better way to do this. I would think that I should be able to create a playlist and then load all of the songs from any CD directly into the playlist.
How do you do that?

What I would like to do is (1) create a playlist and then (2) copy or import tunes from a CD directly into the playlist I have just created.
From what I am hearing, I don't think that can be done. From what I am hearing here, you must first import the tunes into your iTunes general music library and THEN move them into a playlist.
no you can't do it directly, music must be imported into the library first, then copied into the playlist. i'm not sure why you would need to - sure it would save part of the work if you could do it all at the same time, but it's not exactly difficult to import, then create a playlist.
you could create the playlist before you import and add the tracks in as they are importing, but that's not much easier than creating it afterwards.
HOWEVER
Have you considered my 'Smart Playlist' suggestion? I think this will do what you want. Smart Playlists update automatically to coincide with any relevant changes in the itunes library. If you create a Smart Playlist with the album title, as tracks that have that album title are imported into itunes, they will automatically go into the Smart Playlist.

Question about tranferring data from iPhone 3gs to iPhone 4

I just had a couple quick questions about transferring data from my old phone from my new iPhone 4. The reason i am wondering is because i am worried about whether i will encounter any problems when doing so.
First off i have already sold my phone today, i reset all data and settings from the phone and gave it to my buddy so its gone. I did a full sync and backup yesterday so all the necessary files should be on my computer(windows 7). Now, im basically wondering if i will run into any problems if i restore my iphone 4 from a backup. My 3gs was running 3.1.2 on att. Now i know IDEALLY i would have updated it to iOS 4 before backing it up and used the newest version of itunes, but i did not. Does anyone think this will be a problem for me?
Now with that out of the way, my biggest fear is losing my old data(text messages and notes mainly because i am a pack rat for those type of things) so id like to be SURE that none of my old backups will be deleted in any scenario. The reason i dont just restore it right now is because i want my new phone to be as clutter free as possible. I am going to be putting on here only the apps that i used often and would basically like to transfer over the BARE minimum; texts, notes, and highly used apps... So i guess my main question is can you transfer over only certain things like texts and notes after setting up the phone as a new phone. And if i were to set up the phone as a new phone what would happen to my old backups? Would i be able to selectively restore?
Im afraid that it might not be a possibility to transfer only certain things even though it should be.. i should be able to select a text messages folder and put it on my new phone and be done with it... But anyway i dont want to rant. Can anyone explain to me how this all will work?
ULTIMATE GOAL: Transfer only texts, notes, certain apps(and their data) and NOTHING ELSE.
MOST IMPORTANT THING: Not losing texts and notes. I can deal with putting all the old **** on my new phone and cluttering/slowing it down if i NEED to.
Thank you in advance, sorry for the long post.

If the most important thing for you is keeping old text messages, notes, and voicemail, then you'll need to sync the phone from your existing backup. I know of no other way to access those items.
Once you have synced to the new phone, check that you have those items that were important. Then you can reconnect your phone to iTunes, and change the sync settings to remove the apps or other items you no longer want to keep on the phone.
iPhone backups are stored by iTunes; you can see them by opening your iTunes preferences, clicking on "Devices" and then looking in the window. You can delete old backups from here. I don't know how you can open/read the backups though.
I don't expect you'd have any problems syncing from your old phone's backup, but it's definitely an either/or situation. Since you got rid of the old phone already, it's too late to email yourself your notes, or copy the text messages. Your previous backup is your only solution.

Question about the updates from a computer-moron

Hey, um, I see there are a few versions of the OS X update, so I'm wondering, what's the "combo" version? And which should I download? And is it neccesary to download it?

It's only necessary to download the update if you wish to update to the new version. You can do so via Software Update or you can download the standalone updaters directly from Apple's download site. There are two basic versions of the updaters: The Delta version can be used to update only from 10.4.8. The Combo updater can be used to update from any prior version of Tiger (10.4 - 10.4.8.) Combo updaters include all prior updates. Delta updates only include the code needed to update from the last version.
Before updating you should:
1. Make a bootable backup of your current system to an external Firewire drive.
How to Clone Using Restore Option of Disk Utility
1. Open Disk Utility from the Utilities folder.
2. Select the backup or destination volume from the left side list.
3. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (journaled, if available) and click on the Erase button. This step can be skipped if the destination has already been freshly erased.
4. Click on the Restore tab in the DU main window.
5. Select the backup or destination volume from the left side list and drag it to the Destination entry field.
6. Select the startup or source volume from the left side list and drag it to the Source entry field.
7. Double-check you got it right, then click on the Restore button.
2. Repair your hard drive and permissions. You will need to boot from your OS X Installer Disc to do this.
Repairing the Hard Drive and Permissions
Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Installer menu (Utilities menu for Tiger.) After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer. Now shutdown the computer for a couple of minutes and then restart normally.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior (4.0 for Tiger) and/or TechTool Pro (4.5.2 for Tiger) to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.

Question about setting track level

Hi I finally got my new macbook pro and moto 8 pre and have just today tried a bit of recording just to get used to it. I am at the moment using garage band. I have a question about track levels. In Garage Band when I select a track to record there is a slider for input level or an option of clicking the automatic level control. But for some reason they are both just that color of grey you get when something can not be selected on a computer. How do I activate this? It's strange as I did actually manage to record the track, I just can't seem to really adjust the level. I thought maybe it has to do with the motu and I can only select the track level there, and that garage band level setting are (rightfully) disabled? Maybe that's what I should be doing, but just a bit confused. Anyway, thanks in advance for whoever takes the time to help out a newbie.

Ah, ok. Good to know. Thanks for the info.

Question about taking music from mac to pc and pc to mac

I have a mac book and ipod nano that are only about 4 months old. Well the disk drive on my mac isn't working and I want to add some music to my ipod from a CD. I just downloaded itunes to my dad's PC(windows vista) so that I could upload the music. My cousin told me that she did this once nad t completely whiped all of her music off of her ipod when it synced. Will this really happen?
If I can't use the other computer is there a way I can use a flashdrive to add the music?

If your iPod is formatted for Mac it won't run natively on a PC because Windows operating systems don't recognize Mac OS-formatted disks (HFS or HFS Plus formats). Mac formatted iPods can only be used on a PC that has a third party helper program such as XPlay or MacDrive installed. XPlay is currently only compatible with Windows XP, 2000, Me or 98SE, a new version for Vista is planned for release later this year. Alternatively since Macs can read Windows formatting the other way to use an iPod on both platforms would be to restore the iPod in iTunes for Windows which of course would erase any content from it, not a viable alternative in your case I'm afraid: How to determine your iPod's disk format
As for using an iPod on multiple computers, to do this you need to change the update preference in the iPod Summary tab to "Manually manage music and videos" and click Apply. In this mode you can directly access the content of the iPod and play it through iTunes and you can drag and drop whatever you want to the iPod from either library:
Using iPod with Multiple computers
Managing content manually on iPod
iPod 101: Fill 'er Up
Something else to be aware of when using an iPod in manual mode is that the "Do Not Disconnect" message will remain on the display until you physically eject the device: Safely Disconnect IPod

Some question about receiving messages from Skype ...

Hello there,
I have a question or two about recieving messages from Skype users, who are not on my contact list"
1. If I have enabled to only receive messages from people in my contact list, will they be notified when they try to send me an instant message, that they need to add me first?
2. Will I still be able to see messages sent by contacts who are not in my contact list and them see my messages*, if we are both in a Skype conversation group but not on each other's contact list? *The messages either one of us posts in the Skype group conversation
I appreciate the information
Thanks
Solved!
Go to Solution.

1. The person sending this message will not receive any notification about failing message delivery. The message will just disappear in nowhere.
2. Messages exchanged in group chats will be seen both by you and the other person, even if this person is not in your Contact List.

Question about Removing Permissions from the System Folder with chmod

Hi
I have a question about the removal of permissions from the System folder (and sub directories and files).
Background
Since installing a new HD, clean install of 10.6, application of updates and moving over backed up user directories I have had several issues with permissions.
I have read several threads on this and using disk warrior and other tools I have been able to fix most of the issues.
The Problem
The issue that remains is a permissions check using Disk Utility keeps reporting
ACL found but not expected on "System".
followed by an extensive list of sub directories and all.
Attempts to repair take hours and the same errors are reported.
Found Solutions
I have read about changing and/or completely removing the ACL from the permissions from the System using two different commands:
sudo chmod -R -N ./System/* ( to remove all ACLs)
or
sudo chmod -R -E ./System/* ( to replace all ACLs )
My Question is ( to the UNIX gurus):
What is the difference between the usage with -E and -R and which is the best approach for a Systems directory and (subordinates)?
Many thanks!!

OK
So I misread on the your instructions about the PW reset, did it, no harm in that. I did also select the options to reset all the permissions for all the accounts and the ACL issues were not resolved. My bad, I forgot to note that.
You do suggest getting and expert opinion but alas these are rather elusive. In most cases the Apple solutions is to do a complete reinstall... I have found that unless you completely wipe a drive and rebuild everything there are often artifacts left behind. Since I have full and redundant back-ups I would rather explore and hack a little instead of a dull old system reinstall. The irony is the system issue I had was it was the result a reinstall and combo update on a new drive. I recognize the risks of entering the realms of the System folders but I am willing to explore knowing full well that I have a path to recovery.
Thanks again for your insights. I come to the forums looking for insights and ideas but not a lecture...

Transferring CD tracks from computer to ZE

While transferring cd tracks from my computer to my ZEN V player, I changed my mind and cancelled the RIPPING CD TRACKS.
I also disconnected my player from the computer and now have the docked image on my screen and cannot remove it.
Can anyone help me?

Yes, I gave many of the CDs away - if I don't like most of the songs on the CD, I put the ones I like in iTunes and don't take up storage space keeping the entire CD. I assumed since I bought them and put them in iTunes, that it would let me put them on my new iPod, or burn a CD or whatever. Maybe I'm not doing the sync correctly. I plug my new iPod in, and when I try to select the songs and drag them to my new iPod, it tells me it can't find the original. For future reference, will iTunes ALWAYS not let me copy songs that I don't have the original CD to?

Could someone help with question about PNG export from Illustrator?

I am having issues with PNG exports from Illustrator not opening up once exported.

ANd exactly sorry, this is useless. You have not provided any details about your export settings, version of AI, system info, how you are trying to view and so on. Just saying that it doesn't work is simply not good enough.

Question about Offset printing from Indesign

Hello everyone, I have a question about printing too a DPX rip platemaker from Indesign. When I print my file to the rip, it seems to bold the text when it should not be bold, I do not know if this is an Indesign or rip error, but if anyone has a solution I would be grateful for any assistance.
I dont know if it's necessary, but the OS with Indesign is Mac OSX, printing to a ripmate on Windows 2000.

Have you applied an outline to the text?
Try unoutlined text
Is the text near an effect like drop shadow or other filter?
Move the text to top layer or above any effects.
Is it just this file or any file?
Need to figure out if it's just this job or all of them or at least let us know.
Have you got the fonts installed at the RIP end, perhaps it's rasterising text that the RIP has not got the font?
You could try exporting to PDF first, that would embed the fonts in the PDF.
Let us know if any of this helps?

Another one question about how to download applet (not using external tool)

Hi
i write tool for downloading applet on card. I use apdu trace from NXP eclipse plugin as source of information and i read also about cap-file format in Java Card Virtual Machine specification. And i have questions about data transferred by LOAD command.
As example - from apdu trace i see that transferred data are "C4820E33 DATA1 DATA2". Full length of transferred data is 0x2EE2.
C4 - OK, this is "Load File Data Block" tag as specified in Global Platform
820E33 - OK, this length of tag, =0x0E33
DATA1 - sequence of cap-file components: Header.cap, Directory.cap, Import.cap, Applet.cap, Class.cap, Method.cap, StaticField.cap, ConstantPool.cap, RefLocation.cap. Length of DATA1 is 0x0E33, i.e. DATA1 = 'C4'-tag value.
DATA2 - sequence of two cap-file components: Descriptor.cap and Debug.cap. These components are out of 'C4'-tag.
the questions mentioned above... here they are:
1. Global Platform does not define any data in LOAD command except 'E2' and 'C4' tag. Why DATA2 is transferred out of any tags?
2. Whether the sequence of cap-file components is important? i.e. Can i load Header.cap, Directory.cap etc. in other order than i see in DATA1 field from apdu-trace?
3. Debug.cap seems to be optional component. And what about Descriptor.cap component? Need i load it on card?

666 wrote:
1. Global Platform does not define any data in LOAD command except 'E2' and 'C4' tag. Why DATA2 is transferred out of any tags?Because the components are either optional or only required when communicating with a JCRE that has debugging capabilities. I assume you ran the project in JCOP Tools in debug mode against the simulator? If you did this against a real card it would fail as it does not have an instrumented JCRE capable of debugging code. You could try running the project as opposed to debugging to see the difference.
2. Whether the sequence of cap-file components is important? i.e. Can i load Header.cap, Directory.cap etc. in other order than i see in DATA1 field from apdu-trace?Yes it is. It is defined in the JCVM specification available from the Oracle website.
3. Debug.cap seems to be optional component. And what about Descriptor.cap component? Need i load it on card?No, it is optional and is not referenced by any other CAP file component.
Cheers,
Shane
