Question about content descriptor

what info does the content descriptor actually carry and who uses it

It has always been very basic to always maintain a  backup copy of your computer for just such an occasion.
All of your itunes content should be included ion your regular backup of your computer.
If for some reason you have failed to maintain a backup ( not good), then you can transfer itunes purchases from an iphone/ipod.  Without syncing:File>Transfer Purchases
When you sync to the computer when your get it back, it will erase the content of the iphone and replace with content from the computer.  This is why it is important to have a backup copy of your computer.
"Also, my second question. Is it possible to download a movie on my iPhone 4, sync it with my computer so that it is in my library and then put it on my iPad?"
Yes.  You can transfer purchases to wherever you want them.  You can buy on iphone, transfer to itunes ( as described above), then  sync to ipad/ipod/iphone.

  • Question about content of alert messages

    I created some alerts that are called via actions. I customazed for alerts alert categories with short and long texts.
    Now when the alert is generated I get in my outlook e-mail for this alert and in the e-mail I get short and long text defined for alert. And I have admin authotizations.
    On the other hand users without admin privileges get the e-mail but in e-mail is not displayed short and long text of alert. I added them authorizations for usage of all texts but it doesn't help. Are there any paramethers or special authorizations that I have to assign them.
    Thanks in advance.

  • Question about contents of Lion Installer...

    I created a Lion bootable installer by installing the file InstallESD.dmg onto a DVD and
    it works ( I found out the hard way, Lion OS became corrupted and would not boot).
    The InstallESD.dmg is found in the SharedSuppoort folder in the Installer bundle,
    1) What the heck does 'InstallESD' stand for it seems to be a peculiar name
    2) In the same folder there is a file named OSInstall,mpkg.  What is its purpose?
         the InstallESD.dmg seems be be able to do the whole install without any other files.
    I don't have a way to view *mpkg files....
    Enquiring minds want to know
    Jerry

    "InstallESD" is named as such because that's the name somebody in Apple chose. The function of OSinstall.mpkg doesn't matter.
    You (and many of us ) are delving into areas into which Apple did not intend us to go.  Keep exploring, and you will find several thousand files with inexplicable names. Way below the level at which the user operates, it is not necessary to make file names nice and self-explanatory. 

  • Questions about the content of download meeting recording .zip file

    I tried posting this on the resurrected Connect forum, but my Adobe ID wasn't recognized there....
    Concerning the files that are included in the .zip file of the meeting recording that can be downloaded:
    1) Is there any documentation describing the files and their contents (i.e. what each file represents, what each XML element and attribute in those files represent)
    2) Are there any files that capture mouse movement on a shared desktop?
    Thank you!

    Hi Sean,
    Regarding your first post:
    Thanks Jorma! I don't have access to an FMS build at the moment but I'm quite certain it's there. As for contacting Jaydeep, I am 90% sure he authorized us to broadcast his email on here if folks had questions about the tool, but, in the case that I'm wrong and he didn't - I'm going to double-check first.
    Regarding your most recent post..
    "To be clear, the most critical goal I'm trying to accomplish is to create an automated process that will download the recording meeting at its highest quality in a consistent and reliable manner".
    I personally believe this is possible; unfortunately, I haven't seen it done yet. If your recording contains:
    - audio
    - a camera feed
    - screensharing
    Then I think you might be able to get this going. If it contains shared content, like a shared PPT, this gets trickier.
    "To do this, of course, I have to reproduce some of the functionality that Connect provides, starting and combining video and audio streams according to the instructions in the control files."
    Exactly right. If your recording didn't contain shared content, then all you've got on your hands are a bunch of audio/video files that you could edit together as you wanted with your favourite video editing tool. If it contains shared content, here's (at a high level) what's happening.
    For shared PPTs or FTContent files:
    First (for version 9 recordings only), Connect reads the information on the Shared Content's location and SCO within mainstream and indexstream and validates it before loading it. I don't recall this happening to the same extent with version 8 or earlier, but maybe it was. Now, if the content is validated (ie. Connect can find it) the share pod will display as black, if it doesn't, you get an empty pod with an message like "No content is being shared" or something like that.
    Connect then looks at the actual FTContent file, and loads the content that is to be shared using the file path and sco ID listed in here. It's important to note that the SCO ID and file path in here will likely not be the same as the original file you uploaded to your room, it's a new SCO id (I believe SCOs of this type are called referenced scos) and new path.
    Now...if I was going to build some sort of player which would play all these files in one screen to make a recording...I might not want to use Connect's code here. If you know the file path to the shared content (from FTContent), you could easily view it with the content URL (conveniently also in FtContent). I'm not a coder, but I'm envisioning something like Presenter's GUI where you've got the presentation's content in the main area, and a video file (if there is one) playing back on the side.
    Anyways, food for thought if you want to try to go about this. Connect recordings are incredibly complex and they come with a big learning curve, but if you can make sense of them the knowledge is quite valuable.

  • Question about permissions in portal content

    Hi all,
    I'd like to ask you guys a question about permissions given to pages in the portal content (EP 6.0).
    When a user accesses a page that contains an iView (for example one for a Web Dynpro, or for a BSP), and the page permissions are correctly set for the user (or a group the user is member of), everything works fine and the user can see and use the application contained in the iView.
    If the Page has no permissions set and the user tries to access this page, an empty page appears instead and the "Detailed Navigation" column appears on the left.
    I know I should not let the user see the link to the page he is not authorized to use (this is done managing the roles given to the user), but I'd like to know from you if it is possible to show a message like "unauthorized user" instead of the empty page that appears.
    Can you also tell me how to keep the "Detailed Navigation" column hidden on the extreme left?
    Thank you for any hint you can give to me.
    Lorenzo

    Hi Lorenzo,
    a way how you might go ahead and hide or show content for specific user groups is via roles merging (see documentation <a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/53/89503ede925441e10000000a114084/content.htm">http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/53/89503ede925441e10000000a114084/content.htm</a>
    In essence, this means that you create for example 2 roles (A and B): A contains some content everyone can see, B more secure content for another group. You merge those 2 roles via a merge ID - and if a user has both roles, he sees the content in this workset with all the navigation options. If somebody only has role A, he will only see this content.
    Maybe this is someting that could help with you considerations (always depending on the number of items that are affected, this might be a useful way, or leading to too much confusion, because you have too much different roles).
    Best regards
    Jana

  • Follow-up question about forms and SharePoint Online

    I asked a question about life after InfoPath earlier, and got a good answer:
    http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/sharepoint/en-US/fb23b3d9-8a09-4267-aab5-09929f6a3082/life-after-infopath-seeking-advice
    After looking at all of the limitations of SharePoint Online, I'm wondering how developers are dealing with the limitations. Lets say you are asked to develop something that has complex logic, including fetching data from external web services, dynamically
    displaying parts of a process to people depending on role, and ending up with a printable document. In our on-premises environment, InfoPath is well suited to this task, with some code behind for some things. Or, if not using InfoPath, we would use application
    pages and workflow.
    Neither of those are available in SharePoint Online, so what would you do?

    Some things, such as the conditional display of content, can be done via JavaScript. More advanced items, such as integrating external web services would likely require a SharePoint "app". A SharePoint app is essentially a link to a separate site
    that is running an asp.net web app (or PHP, or whatever). This asp.net site can do anything it needs with any web services, or conditional formatting, or anything. Because it's registered as a SharePoint app, it can also call back into the SharePoint site
    and work with data. So, a SharePoint App could present the user with a robust form that simply sends the data back to a SharePoint list. The SharePoint app can also be surfaced on the SharePoint site itself in an iframe, so the user won't know that the form
    is hosted by another server.
    By the way, the ideas behind the app model permeate the entire SharePoint environment: instead of having the SharePoint server itself run all kinds of custom business logic, that workload is handled by other servers, so the SharePoint servers can be focused
    on running the core bits of SharePoint. InfoPath puts a large load on the servers, so it's out.  XSLT list views also put a load on the server, so they're also out. SSRS is an amazingly fantastic tool, but is not supported in the cloud (and there's no
    alternative). Timer jobs, event handlers, workflow, and many other things have been re-architected to take the load off the SharePoint servers.

  • General question about iTunes Match and multiple libraries

    Hello to everyone,
    I have a general question about the iTunes Match service, which is available since yesterday in my country (Italy). Currently my library situation is the following:
    Computer A (desktop, Windows 7): "big" iTunes library (about 20 GB), at the moment not associated with my Apple ID
    Computer B (MacBook Air 2011): "small" iTunes library (about 5 GB), associated with my Apple ID
    At the moment, both my iOS devices (iPhone 4 and iPad 2) are synchronized with the smaller library on the MacBook Air.
    Question is as follows: should I subscribe to iTunes Match, would it be possible to upload the "big" library (provided I associate it with my Apple ID) to iCloud while keeping my devices synchronized with the "small" one?
    Ideally, at the end of the day, the situation should be the following: both iOS devices with music from the small library + possibility of downloading songs from iCloud (coming from the big one). Is this possible?
    Maybe the question sounds stupid, but I want to be sure about this before paying for the service.
    Thanks a lot.

    Yes, you could also associate your larger library with iTunes match if you associated your Apple ID with it. However any purchases in the library made from another Apple ID will not be matched with iTunes much.
    If both libraries are part of iTunes match, then all your devices will see all of the content from both libraries, which content you choose to have on those devices and which you have accessible via iTunes match is entirely up to you.

  • Legality questions about Home Sharing

    I have some legality questions about Apple's Home Sharing technology.
    As I understand it, you can share (that is, copy it from one computer to another) your music, movies, applications and other iTunes-managed files amongst five computers. The only 'trick' is that each computer must have an iTunes Store account and must be logged in in order for it to work.
    My question concerns the copying aspect and the legality of it. For content that was purchased through the iTunes Store I can see how Home Sharing can provide a limitation on content sharing, since all of the machines would need to be connected to Apple's servers in order for the validation process to happen. But what about content that was added to iTunes through other means, e.g., ripping my own CDs or converting my DVDs? These items can still be copied via Home Sharing and as there's no DRM on them there's no way they can be protected against "illegal" or "unauthorized" use.
    It was my understanding that if I gave a copy of a song to someone else, that's illegal. Apple's Home Sharing technology seems to facilitate this action. If I rip a CD or DVD into iTunes and someone copies it out, isn't that making an illegal copy? Can I be held liable for distribution of content?
    And how far does this extend? If I live in a house with four unrelated people, are they legally (?) allowed to copy music and media amongst each another? Is there a perceived or actual difference between using Home Sharing to copy a movie versus, say, using a USB flash drive? And what if one of them moves out? Am I legally obligated to go through that person's hard drive and remove content that they copied from me before they leave the building?
    Does Home Sharing somehow retroactively change the copyright application on a given CD or DVD? Most of my CDs and DVDs contain notices and warnings against distributing copies. Can these warnings now be ignored, or at least amended with "...unless you're using iTunes Home Sharing" at the ends of them?
    I am not trying to stir up a hornet's nest here. I'm only trying to better understand the legal issues surrounding Home Sharing and particularly how they relate to unprotected content. It seems very contradictory that the RIAA and MPAA would be fighting so hard against peer-to-peer services like BitTorrent and Gnutella while apparently allowing peer-to-peer services through iTunes Home Sharing.
    Furthermore, I also understand that the intention of this system was to allow families who are living together to have common access to all of the "household" music, but my issues aren't about this. I envision, for example, a college dorm building where there's several hundred people living together on the same network subnet, and all of them have Home Sharing enabled and everyone is copying thousands and thousands of songs to/from one another. Is this now legal?
    Any insights would be appreciated. Thanks.

    If I rip a CD or DVD into iTunes and someone copies it out, isn't that making an illegal copy?
    RIPping of commercial, encrypted DVDs (most of them) is illegal to begin with. Or rather, breaking the encryption on a DVD is illegal and in order to RIP the DVD, you must break the encryption. SO you have already "broken the law" by having a copy on your computer.
    Most of my CDs and DVDs contain notices and warnings against distributing copies.
    Most of your DVDs have a notice about even simply making a copy, not only distributing copies.
    Much of your post has been cussed and discussed by many, many people (lawyers, corporations, organizations, individuals, etc.) and no one has come (or likely ever will come) to a complete agreement.
    Generally, "sharing" in the same house hold amongst family members seems to be okay. Outside the same household/family is almost always not okay.
    I envision, for example, a college dorm building where there's several hundred people living together on the same network subnet, and all of them have Home Sharing enabled and everyone is copying thousands and thousands of songs to/from one another. Is this now legal?
    No.
    This is exactly what Napster was and why they were sued & shut down.
    I imagine Apple lawyers have done their homework as well as consulted with the labels to discuss these exact issues.
    And it's called "Home Sharing" to indicate that it is not "Dorm Sharing" or "Workplace Sharing", or even simply "Library Sharing"etc. even though it may be possible to use it in other places than the Home.
    Users on other computers need to know your iTunes ID and password to enable it Home Sharing. Likely this is how Apple got the lables to be okay with it.
    Are you gonna give (and get) dozens/hundreds/thousands/any other users your iTunesID & password?
    You can contact Apple Legal here -> http://www.apple.com/legal

  • Question about iCloud. How do I change my e-mail address, I have the wrong one and want to change it.

    question about iCloud.  How do I change my e-mail address, I got the wrong address.

    There are a variety of options available to you, including creating an email "alias" or changing the email address associated with your iCloud ID.
    For all practical purposes your iCloud email address and Apple ID are interchangeable. To change your Apple ID read Apple ID: Changing your Apple ID.
    If you simply created an Apple ID in error, you might consider abandoning it altogether and creating a new one. On the other hand, if you already used that Apple ID to purchase iTunes or other digital content, don't create a new Apple ID, because any purchases you already made are inexorably linked to the Apple ID used to make them.

  • Question about Id3-tags and song managem

    Hello, I am getting ready to buy a Zen Touch 20GB in a couple of weeks and I have a few questions about the management software.
    (Correct me if I am wrong about something)
    ) Are songs organized into groups by Genre instead of just folders like on the Ipod?
    2) Are Id3-tags used instead of filename for identification?
    3) What parts of the tag are needed besides title and artist?
    4) Which version of tags does the Zen Touch recognize: Version or Version 2?
    5) If I edit my tags using an external program such as Id3-TagIT, will the tags carry over to the Creative software and to the player?
    Thanks a lot for your help. I want to make sure I have my music collection in order before I get my Zen Touch.

    euph_jay wrote:Ok, so lets say I have all my music in folders right now seperated into different categories on my hard dri've. Some folders denote the artist, some the album, and some a genre. Example: Folder: Chicago Contents: Chicago .mp3 files Folder: Techno Contents: various Techno artist's songs What is the best way of organizing my folder system, so that the transition will be easy to the player?
    Folders are pretty much irrelevant. What the software will do is look at the *tags* in the files and then use these to build the player's library.
    Will imbedded folders work on the player? (like Techno->Crystal Method->Cystal Method .mp3's)
    Again the player has no concept of folders, although if you set Techno as a Genre tag you will be able to view via this in the Music Library.
    Or, am I misunderstanding how music is stored into the mp3 player. Instead of storing music in a "folder like" system (like the Chicago folder or Techno folder), does it store all the songs individually on the device? Then you have to sort it by artist, album, or genre?
    Using your example, in the Music Library you have essentially three categories: Album, Artist, and Genre. So under Album you would see "Vegas" (the Crystal Method's album), under Artist you would see "The Crystal Method", and under Genre you would see "Techno" (and then either the album or artist under this... I forget which it is offhand).
    Make sense?
