Question about system requirements with upgrade

I want to upgrade to Leopard which has iLife '08 but as I was reading about iMovie '08, it says that the minimum processor spec is a g5. You can see in my signature, my Powerbook is a g4, will iMovie not run at all (or very well even) or will the installer give me an option not to install the entire iLife'08 suite over what I have right now? Thanks!

As the Prime Minister has pointed out Leopard doesn't include iLife 08. It is a separate $79 purchase.
Your G4 (and mine) can't even install iMovie 7 so a purchase would do you no good.
But, if you bought a new Mac it would come installed with Leopard ($129) and a free version of iLife 08.
Over $200 in savings right off the bat!

Questions about System Requirements for Adobe Air programs

     Earlier today I asked someone who runs Tweetdeck if they knew what the system requirements were for running Tweetdeck on my desktop (Windows)
they gave me a link here: http://www.adobe.com/products/air/systemreqs/
and I found this:
Windows
2.33GHz Intel® Pentium® 4, AMD Athlon® 64 2800+, or faster processor
Microsoft® Windows® XP Home, Professional, or Tablet PC Edition with Service Pack 3; Windows Server® 2003 or 2008; Windows Vista® Home Premium, Business, Ultimate, or Enterprise (including 64-bit editions) with Service Pack 2; or Windows 7
512MB of RAM (1GB recommended)
Here are my computer statistics:
Operating System: Windows Vista™ Home Basic (6.0, Build 6001) Service Pack 1 (6001.vistasp1_ldr.101014-0432)
           Language: English (Regional Setting: English)
System Manufacturer: Hewlett-Packard
       System Model: Compaq Presario CQ60 Notebook PC
               BIOS: PhoenixBIOS 4.0 Release 6.1
          Processor: AMD Athlon Dual-Core QL-65 (2 CPUs), ~2.1GHz

    DirectX Version: DirectX 10
DX Setup Parameters: Not found
     DxDiag Version: 6.00.6001.18000 32bit Unicode
Will me only having a 2.1GHz processor really affect how my performance is with Adobe Air products/apps in general?

Yes- I've had some lower price pc's using an Adobe AIR app and can tell the difference.
Computers where performance was a huge issue was Compaq CQ56 & Toshiba Satellite C655D
These computers are under 2.0 GHz and the app seems to freeze up on occassion or run slower.

Questions about system requirements w/FCE4 (AVCHD/Intel)

As you can see I have a Power PC Dual G5. I also have a JVC GZ-HD7 HD Everio camcorder. Im pretty dumb when it comes to this AVCHD. Can anyone tell me if this is the format my camcorder uses all the time or just when using the SD storage? Secondly, in regards to Final Cut Express 4 the Mac web site said:" For AVCHD: A Mac computer with an Intel processor" Is this true or just a marketing thing? I want to be able to edit HD clips that I capture with the JVC. I haven't bought the FCE4 yet. I hope someone would be kind enough to tell me what the best setup would be, (out side of buying a new Mac Pro). Prospectively, thank you!
Benjamin

Thanx Tom. Now that I know that my JVC does NOT shoot in the AVCHD & I don't currently have a Mac with an Intel, would you be so kind to suggest the best editing software for me to use with the current equipment I have. (Keep in mind I usually shoot in full HD) Maybe a previous version of Final Cut Express? I have been editing through my Power Book G4 with iMovie HD 6 but I would like to use my Power Mac, which has the new iMovie 7.1 ( I havent really used this yet because it didnt seem to have the effects options iMovie HD 6 has) Should I down load HD 6 to my G5 or is there a more highly recommended application? Pospectively thank you, Benjamin

A Question about Windows games with boot camp and system requirements

I don't plan to play many games on my Mac, but after seeing what can be done with it, I've been entertaining the idea of picking up a Windows game or 2 to play in Boot Camp (considering picking up a XP PRO with SP2 for this).
My question is about the listed systed system requirements and how they might apply to my Mac Pro. I have a dual 2.26.
As a specific example, I was looking at the game Fallout 3. The box lists a 2.4ghz processor required but I've read on this forum about people running it great with less on their Mac.
So I was wondering what I would need to consider when looking at those requirements or if games in that range do indeed run well...

Thanks Kap, you're always helpful.
That's exactly what I was wondering. How the requirement on the box applied to having an 8 core at a lower clock speed.
I was looking at XP home at amazon and newegg, but haven't been able to tell if they are 64 or 32 (unless that means just install that version from the disc).
It's nothing pressing, just something I was entertaining for now.

E-recruimtment: Question about landscape standalone with several HR Systems

Hi,
We are going to start with the implementation of E-recruitment , normally version 6.0.
The aim is to install 1 e-recruitment system as a standalone system who shall communicate with several HR systems of several companies (subsidiary company in different coountries Luxembourg, France, Belgium) and probably those HR systems (backend) runs on different versions.
So the aim is that every company shall search for its own candidates in the e-recruitment system and shall do its own hirings.
Up till now it isn't clear for us how this works ?
Thus anybody have already experience of such a landsccape who is willing to share his information ?
Wat are the benefits, the disadvantages, the difficulties, are there things we have to think about , ...
Kind Regards
Pascale

Hello Rachael,
you cannot split the so called pool of talents. every applicant has the option to release his profile in the system. if he does so, he agrees to be assigned / checked to any other requisition (=position) you open in your e-recruiting system. When you open a new requisition you can check if you already have suitable candidates in the system to get in contact with instead of finding new ones (you can just put him on the requisition). In the more strategic overall talent management topic one goal is to have a pool filled with critical applicant groups (engineers, sales people, researchers. ... - the short and strategic necessary applicant groups according to your business) to hire fast (and cheap).
This pool is accessable to every recruiter in standard. There is no restriction that if an applicant applied for company A a recruiter from company B cannot take him and get in contact with him.
For the requisition handling. Requisitions are always restricted to its recruiting team. If you create a requisition you assing the people who have to work with it (and the roles they have for the process). Recruiters can only access the requisitions they belong to. So this should not be a problem. By maintaining the company and branch for a requisition you can always find out which requisition belongs to which company and react on this in correspondences for example.
Managers are not really assigned to requisitions. Their task is restricted to request requisitions (of course in this case they become a member of the recruiting team). The candidate handling works by questionairs. The manager gets a list of requisitions and assigned candidates he is supposed to evaluate. The evaluation is done via filling the questionaire. He has no direct access to all candidates in the system.
The 2 ECC systems for one E-Recruiting standalone system are possible - unfortunately with some restrictions.
There are 2 ways of communication. The HR system has to deliver all employees and if you want to integrate OM all org.units, positions and jobs to the e-recruiting system. The employees get internal candidates for internal recruitment and even if you do not plan do use this every recruiter, manager needs a candidate to work with the system. The standard way for this is ALE. If you have a consolidated HR system infrastructure with non overlapping employee IDs and organizational unit IDs you can easily transfere data from both system into the e-recruiting system. If the number ranges overlap you will need special adaptions for mapping Ids for global identification. This might get a very chalanging task exp. if you include OM.
The other way is transfering hirings to the HR systems. This is more tricky. If you really plan to use this function (note that due to the restrictions in the function not all implementations use it anyways) you will need some custome developments. How much effort is needed for that would need more info on the systems and the requirements. I think in the best scenario I could imaging it would take me 5 days but as usual the sky is the limit if it's more complex.

A question about a method with generic bounded type parameter

Hello everybody,
Sorry, if I ask a question which seems basic, but
I'm new to generic types. My problem is about a method
with a bounded type parameter. Consider the following
situation:
abstract class A{     }
class B extends A{     }
abstract class C
     public abstract <T extends A> T someMethod();
public class Test extends C
     public <T extends A> T someMethod()
          return new B();
}What I want to do inside the method someMethod in the class Test, is to
return an instance of the class B.
Normally, I'm supposed to be able to do that, because an instance of
B is also an instance of A (because B extends A).
However I cannot compile this program, and here is the error message:
Test.java:16: incompatible types
found   : B
required: T
                return new B();
                       ^
1 errorany idea?
many thanks,

Hello again,
First of all, thank you very much for all the answers. After I posted the comment, I worked on the program
and I understood that in fact, as spoon_ says the only returned value can be null.
I'm agree that I asked you a very strange (and a bit stupid) question. Actually, during recent months,
I have been working with cryptography API Core in Java. I understood that there are classes and
interfaces for defining keys and key factories specification, such as KeySpec (interface) and
KeyFactorySpi (abstract class). I wanted to have some experience with these classes in order to
understand them better. So I created a class implementing the interface KeySpec, following by a
corresponding Key subclass (with some XOR algorithm that I defined myself) and everything was
compiled (JDK 1.6) and worked perfectly. Except that, when I wanted to implement a factory spi
for my classes, I saw for the first time this strange method header:
protected abstract <T extends KeySpec> T engineGetKeySpec
(Key key, Class<T> keySpec) throws InvalidKeySpecExceptionThat's why yesterday, I gave you a similar example with the classes A, B, ...
in order to not to open a complicated security discussion but just to explain the ambiguous
part for me, that is, the use of T generic parameter.
The abstract class KeyFactorySpi was defined by Sun Microsystem, in order to give to security
providers, the possibility to implement cryptography services and algorithms according to a given
RFC (or whatever technical document). The methods in this class are invoked inside the
KeyFactory class (If you have installed the JDK sources provided by Sun, You can
verify this, by looking the source code of the KeyFactory class.) So here the T parameter is a
key specification, that is, a class that implements the interface KeySpec and this class is often
defined by the provider and not Sun.
stefan.schulz wrote:
>
If you define the method to return some bound T that extends A, you cannot
return a B, because T would be declared externally at invocation time.
The definition of T as is does not make sense at all.>
He is absolutely right about that, but the problem is, as I said, here we are
talking about the implementation and not the invocation. The implementation is done
by the provider whereas the invocation is done by Sun in the class KeyFactory.
So there are completely separated.
Therefore I wonder, how a provider can finally impelment this method??
Besides, dannyyates wrote
>
Find whoever wrote the signature and shoot them. Then rewrite their code.
Actually, before you shoot them, ask them what they were trying to achieve that
is different from my first suggestion!
>
As I said, I didn't choose this method header and I'm completely agree
with your suggestion, the following method header will do the job very well
protected abstract KeySpec engineGetKeySpec (Key key, KeySpec key_spec)
throws InvalidKeySpecException and personally I don't see any interest in using a generic bounded parameter T
in this method header definition.
Once agin, thanks a lot for the answers.

Question about Logon ticket with user mapping at BI-JAVA environment

We're implementing BI 7.0 including BI Java and SAP EP for end user
access.
I have two question about SSO method when we're using BI Java.
I know we can simply configure SSO logon ticket with BI-Java(EP
included) and BI-ABAP through BI template installer and we already
succeeded in that case.
But the problem is we want to change it to user mapping SSO method for
some our internal reason.
After we configure user mapping SSO, we've got SSO failed error when we
call BI-Java stuff like BEx Web Application iView.
After many testing implemented, we found SSO Logon ticket with user
mapping (using SAP reference system). It seems working now.
But our question is "Is it no problem when we use SSO logon ticket with
user mapping?" Is there any restriction or issue?
One more question is we can ONLY use user base mapping when reference
system used. How can we assign BI-ABAP users to EP Group?

Using an SAP Reference system is allright. But if the reason u r going for this is because of different usernames in EP and BI, why dont you go for user mapping.
Anyways, on restriction of reference syetms is that you can have ONLY ONE reference system defined in portal. In you case you can only have the BI system defined.
Hope this helps!!

Questions about supporting TLF with Halo components in Flex 4.1

We recently decided to upgrade to the Flex 4.1 SDK after a year or so at 3.2. We have been asked to not use the new SPARK components yet because our products would then have a mistmatch of Halo and Spark components in the UI. We have built support for our Halo components to display html through the ".htmlText" property for the Text components. For example, we can display strings such as "<p>Choose <b>one</b> option:</p>". With the upgrade to Flex 4.1 a couple of questions about supporting bi-directional text have come up. My understanding is that in order to support bi-directional text we need to use the Text Layout Framework. Does anyone have a suggestion on how we can utilize the TLF with the Halo components in Flex 4.1? Can we still use the ".htmlText" property somehow or is there a new property that understands the TextFormat markup? We would love to still be able to use the limited html tags that are supported for the "htmlText" property. Is there an option where that syntax is still understood?
Thanks in advance!
David

The halo components use TextField, and the spark components use TLF. Both sets have support for some html markup to import and export text. To use bidi text, you have to use TLF; TextField won't work properly.
It is possible to use TLF to build your own components, and this can work well particularly for applications with specialized needs. But if you need bidi support for advanced components like DataGrid and List, then you should use the spark components.
Thanks!

Hi, Possibly silly question. System requirements?

Hi, I am thinking about buying an Imac, (All system info below). I work with game design/sound design and film design/editing (unreal engine, adobe premire pro, after effects, photoshop and Illustrator, pro tools and logic pro)
I just want to make sure that the mac I am buying will hit all the system requirements so I can work efficiently with no lag. Anyone with knowledge on this topic that can bring info help will be amazing. tried to call adobe, but its close to impossible
Mac System Requirements
21.5-inch: 2.9GHz
Specifications
2.9GHz quad-core Intel Core i5
Turbo Boost up to 3.6GHz
8GB (two 4GB) memory
1TB hard drive1
NVIDIA GeForce GT 750M with 1GB video memory
Thanks

The RAM is the minimum required for After Effects. I would want AT LEAST double that - quadruple that, if you can.

Problem\question about System.in and DataInputStream

Hello everybody,
I have the following code, trying to read an int and a string into two variables using System.in and DataInputStream:
package objectIO;
import java.io.*;
public class WriteStudentObject
     * @exception IOException Can not read the file
      public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException
          a loop could be used here to create more than one
          student object and write each one to a file
          Student mary = new Student("Mary Martin", 12345);
          // open inputstream to read data from keyboard
          InputStream is = System.in;
          DataInputStream dis = new DataInputStream(is);
          int g;
          String c;
          for (int i =0; i < mary.grades.length ; i++)
              System.out.println("Enter a grade for test" + i);
              g = dis.readInt(); //*QUESTION 1*
              System.out.println("Enter a comment for test"+i);
              Datainput stream can read String
             and store as text or reverse
              c = dis.readUTF(); //*QUESTION 2*
              mary.grades= new Grade(g,c);
try
FileOutputStream fos = new FileOutputStream("c:\\personal\\test\\studentObject.dat");
ObjectOutputStream oos = new ObjectOutputStream(fos);
oos.writeObject(mary); // write obj to file
oos.close();
} catch(IOException e) {
System.out.print("Error: " + e);
System.exit(1);
The class uses a Student object -attributes are name\String, id\int and Grades (Grade class has grade obtained\int and a comment from the teacher\String).
My questions are: (as bolded in the code)
1) at "g = dis.readInt()" I have to press Enter 3 times to finish the reading (one after entering a single int and then just 2 times Enter). Should I add bellow this line "System.in.read()" to clear the newline\return character?! What exactly does "System.in.read()" clears? After leaving the method readInt() the variable g has an enormous value... like 9 digits... why? I also tried "g = (int)dis.readInt()" but the results are the same... I want to read an int from keyboard, but using DataInputStream, not with System.in.read()
2) at this line the program never ends, it tries continuously to read characters... no matter what I enter it does not complete... I want to read a String from keyboard, but again using DataInputStream...
Many thanks in advance (and hopefully now I can assign the offered stars...)

don1983p wrote:
I read an int form keyboard with 'int read_int = System.in.read();' but why I must, after this line, enter a new System.in.read()? (what does this clears? the return character? )Yep. Note that InputStream.read() only reads the next byte of data. If your user had input something that required multiple bytes to represent, you would not have read all of it.
Fun Fact: Even if you had used Scanner.nextInt() to get your integer from the console, you still need to do a .nextLine() as .nextInt() only reads up to the newline and does not consume it.

Questions about PDF exporting with InDe CS5.5

Hey all,
A couple questions about exporting to PDF from the latest version of InDe.
First, I have noticed that it seems to take a lot longer to get to a PDF. Any suggestions for how to speed up the process? It took 8 minutes or so to generate a low-res PDF (for print) of a 24pp document with a few placed images and vector graphics. Wow, that's a long time to wait, especially for a proof.
Second, the background task... if I get it going on making that 8-minute PDF and then work some more on the document, what exactly is in the PDF? Usually I save before making a PDF or printing. So, is the last version saved what will be in the PDF?
(As an aside, this ability to work on the doc while generating a PDF seems kind of weird. Generally one makes a PDF for proofing, or even for printing, when all the changes have been made and everything is "final". So, I see no benefit to being able to work on my document while it's making a PDF, as I'm probably finished making revisions for the time being. I have to say that I kind of like the progress bar you get when you make an interactive PDF, as you know you can't work on the document when that's on the screen... )
Thanks as always.

Yes, this is abnormally long (and too long), something is wrong. What's the full version of InDesign you are running, as reported by holding down Cmd or Control and selecting About InDesign?
Second, the background task... if I get it going on making that 8-minute PDF and then work some more on the document, what exactly is in the PDF? Usually I save before making a PDF or printing. So, is the last version saved what will be in the PDF?
Saving is not related. InDesign makes a database snapshot of your document the moment you begin the PDF export, and makes the export relative to that snapshot, regardless of edits you continue to make during the export process, and regardless of saving. Of course saving first is a good idea, for several reasons, not the least of which it sounds like something's fairly seriously wrong with your document or your InDesign installation.
We recommend you trash your preferences and export your document to IDML and see if either of those things changes this 8-minute behavior...err, assuming you're running 7.5.2.318.

Yeah, I think the primary benefit is if you are likely to work on 2 or more files in parallel, so you can finish A and export A and then switch to B. If you'd like a dialog box to pop up when export is done, check out my exportPop script from this post: ANN: automatic dialog after background export (exportPop.jsx.

A few questions about using PS3 with 27" iMac display...

Hey people, I had a few questions about how I could possibly get my ps3 connected to the iMac's 27" screen. First of all, could you guys list some adapters that would be able to convert the HDMI to Mini displayport? That would be great. The only one I know of is that Dr. Bott Digital Video link.
Okay secondly, I was wondering if I do get the the ps3 connected with the iMac's display with an adapter to convert HDMI to mini DisplayPort, would it be in HD? Would I be able to play ps3 games or watch blu-ray movies in 1080p HD format?
Thanks!

Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
This has been asked a number of times here since the intro of the 27" iMac. The answer is very expensive US$149 or more converters and sometimes even more expensive to maintain the resolutions that you seek.

Question about 360 movieclip with cursor action

Hello Flash Forum
We have a question about a 360 flash / movieclip which comes
to a halt or jumps to whereever the cursor is moved horizontally
while any vertical movements is ignored. We are having difficulties
to implement this and would like to ask whether someone can point
us into the right direction in Flash 8 - read somewhere that this
is extremely easy in Flash 8 but we cannot find out how!?
An example would be:

Question about using iPod with a Mobile Mulitmedia system

Hi All,
I bought my wife a 16g 4th genration iPod Nano to use with her Valor Mobile Multimedia system in her car. When she plugs the iPod in the system via the iPod cable, all it says is "connecting". It seems to recognize the iPod but doesn't fully connect with it to play the music. I've tried my daughter's older generation Nano and it works fine as does my 60g video iPod.
I've tried to contact Valor but their website isn't very intuitive. I've left a message with their tech support as well as emailed them, No repsonses yet.
I would appreciate any suggestions. Thanks all.

EDirectory question about OES2SP3 to OES11SP1 upgrade

My apologies if this is not the correct place to ask this question but I decided to ask here becuase my question involved OES.
We are going to perform an offline upgrade to OES 11 SP1 of an OES2SP3 server that hasn't been patched in one year.
Novell Tech support told has told us in the past that prior to any server upgrade the server being upgraded should be fully patched but our concern has to do with eDirectory versions.
Our OES2SP3 server runs DS version 20608.00 (eDirectory 8.8.6 Patch7) but if we install all OES2 SP3 patches available prior to the upgrade OES 11 SP1 I'll be installing eDirectory 8.8.7 Patch4 and our understanting is that the version of eDirectory included in the OES 11 SP1 media is eDirectory 8.8.7 Patch1.
Will installing all OES 2 SP3 patches on this server cause eDirectory compatibility or eDirectory downgrade problems during the upgrade to OES 11 SP1 ?

There is code in eDirectory's pre_ndsd_start script in OES 11 SP2 to
prevent eDirectory from loading if it detects a downgrade during this
upgrade, for the exact reason you mentioned. Basically the code prevents
loading and instructs you to apply all of the current OES 11 SP1 patches
from the channel at which point eDirectory will load again.
With that said, I wouldn't worry too much about having all of the latest
patches before trying to migrate to OES 11, especially with a down server
upgrade. Upgrading from where you are should be supported since that was
an option back before all of the latest patches for OES 2 SP3 were available.
Another option may be to wait a couple of months for OES 11 SP2 to be
released, at which time you can upgrade to that directly with eDirectory
8.8 SP8.
Good luck.
