Question for ALL*MYTEE

Hello, in your post re: Halo vs. Ensemble, you mentioned a work-around for logic control surfaces. I've tried the bit where I turn on the Ensemble after the controllers are recognized, but the controllers, though recognized, still exhibit buggy behaviors like one surface mirrorring the other etc. Is there something more to the work-around that I am missing? Thanks.

I graduated from university with a degree in graphic design and while i feel that you don't always need to be 'artistic' to succeed in this area... it does help.
There will be those who work in design who can't draw and do better than those who can. With skills in writing you may find yourself gravitating towards the 'copy writing side of design and advertising. It's is an important skill to have, as, along side the creative element you also need to be able to put words on paper to make those scribbles 'work'
I personally work in illustration, T shirt design and print... i welcome all areas of design and art equally... but really gte off on doing what makes me happy...I've experienced the 'corporate' side of design.. and it opened my eyes up to what i want from my life... as for me, i live and love the thing..
IMHO... you can't take tests to work out where you will fit in best.. what career with suit you.. you have to try new things, meld and mould your way into tight spaces.. hard times and even tighter deadlines... as ultimately... working in design is never predictable..
Have fun, start sketching and don't worry about what anyone else thinks

SOME SIMPLE QUESTIONS FOR ALL OF YOU

hi,
I have some questions for all of you.
1. Oracle uses cgi (even asp!!! I've seen an asp page somewhere on an Oracle's site but this moment I don't remember where perhaps it is asp->cgi). Why ?
Oracle doesn't support their techologies
(Pl/SQL, Jsevlets,XML) ?
2. Oracle says that has just released a
new product for mobiles called "Portal2Go".
I tried to install this product on NT with OAS 4.8.1.
I had many problems during the installation and after many tries finally I did it(thanks God). but the problems continue...
many Jsp errors (from the "tested" supplied apps). My question is:
a. This product is in an early stage (many installation errors.. just a baby) and I think is stable for Sun Solaris but not on NT.
b. You Oracle "experts" (i.e. oracle staff, NOT YOU guys) tell me ONE advantage to use you product (I'm an oracle developer for 6 years now):
You say that I can PORT my existing app in any device and Web (through XML). This is a joke. Mobiles,PalmPCs,Web etc. have different requirements (content,display etc).The scope is different.. so this is absolutely FALSE (to use a boolean).
This release is user unfrienlty. Why.. tell me WHY to pay for a product and for extra hardware (read the product technical reqs!!) to do the SAME THINK
I do NOW with existing sources.
I've developed an app for my company's employees using existing version of DB (8.0.5),pure pl/sql and a WAP GATEWAY.NOTHING LESS NOTHING MORE.
please answer. Any comment welcomed...
maybe I'm wrong maybe I'm not.
PS.WHERE THE WAP GATEWAY/SERVER IS. I searced the cd and..nothing :-) ?
thanks

Portal-to-Go is a wireless portal server, the first version was released November 1999.
The problems you describe that mobiles, Palm devices, etc all have different characteristics is one of the key reasons for Portal-to-Go. It allows any service to be displayed on any device by generating content in an appropriate format for specific devices. This way you can take into consideration the size of the screen, the display characteristics, etc.
It is 'stable' on Solaris and NT, though it is true that the installation procedure of the CD is for Solaris only. The product is not currently available on OTN, so the installer restrictions should have been explained to you when you obtained the CD.
Why Portal-to-Go? Here's three reasons:
1. Inherent problems of the User Interface for a wireless device, so we provide a way personalise the UI to improve navigation and allow commonly used parameters to be saved as stored preferences through the portal.
2. Differences in the characteristics between wireless devices make it hard to support all type without re-creating content and applications for each specific case. With Portal-to-Go, the same service can be accessed from any device.
3. Lack of content available for WAP and other wireless devices. We have tools to quickly create wireless services from existing Web sites as well as an application platform for creating new Java or database applications for wireless devices.
You are correct that the product does not have a WAP gateway.
I'm not sure where you are located, but feel free to contact me offline. I can answer any specific questions, or get you contact with a local Oracle representative.
At the moment, if anyone wants to obtain a copy of Portal-to-Go, you should contact your local Oracle representatives.

Okay. Question for all those IT wirzards (

Okay. Question for all those IT wirzards (& iTunes) experts out there. Anyone know why a playlist (Purchased) keeps dropping off my playlists in iTunes??l This has happened at least 15-20 times to me in the past couipe of years. Fofrtunately for me, I saved these songs to an external hard drive, so retrieval won't be so painful. Guess I just want to know how to avoid this going forward.

Just that one playlist goes missing and no other content? No idea. But it is clear you ought to have a backup so you can restore the database should it happen again.

First of all, uninstall it with the uninstaller.
Then:
Install the ENGLISH version.
Change the language in the CC app to Korean.
Install the Korean version. (DON't uninstall the English version)
Change back the langauge in the CC app to English.
When your OS is running in English, InDesign will run in English with Korean functionality added, if your OS is running in Korean it will take the Korean User Interface, so let your OS run in English.
Every installer language will add needed plugins for the work with that language. E.g. If I install Hebrew, I get RTL functionality in German version, only if I would change the OS language it would change the language of InDesign, InDesign takes always as UI language the language of the OS if available, if not (in your case you have uninstalled English before), it takes any version which is available in the order of languages specified in the OS.
If you need to run your program in a different language than the OS but you have installed it in the language of the OS it becomes more difficult. You would have to use some system tools which are able to force a program to open with a different language. Most of those tools are freeware.

So what do you do when you import - a questions for all??

So far I have not had them time to dive into LR 1.1 as I would like to.
Although lately that time has been free'ing up. While I currently do use LR
to import and tag my photos, I have not tried much else except the album
part, but even that has been minimal. I shot mostly in jpeg, but some raw as
well. So my questions to you all, other than just importing as I do, what
else do you do? I mean, do you do auto adjustments as you import? Sometimes,
when I import, I will have 200-600 photos. I know I do not want all of them
and will delete some. And then some, I think I will want to eventually move
into collections to create a digital portfolio of sorts. I know LR is just
in it's beginning stages, but still presents a lot of power.
Secondly to this, do many of you use LR in conjunction with Bridge and PS
CS3 and if so, how do you bring it all together?
I know this could warrant some exhaustive answers, but I think it could be
fun to see what all we do and whatnot and maybe get some ideas from one
another. So let's hear from you!?!?

I don't use any develop preset. I do apply a metadata preset with basic contact and copyright. It also applies a purple label (the only label with no shortcut) which means Rate and Add Metadata. I apply the same keywords as Robert and any others that apply to all photos. I apply the lens and camera tags because folks on flickr appreciate it. Different cameras write lens identity differently so a lens tag is actually easier to use than the MB. After import I'll apply a metadata template for location.
Further use of labels:
none - keep but don't work on further
Red - process
Green - Raw/DNG done
Yellow - full size derivative
Blue - reduced size for web
CR2/CRW files that I process are also flagged as Pick. I export/import a DNG of these to serve as a local backup. The DNG's are not flagged. This allows me see just what I want very easily. I have CR2/CRW files and DNG of the keepers so that I have the native files in case I decide to develop with something that doesn't handle DNG and the DNG's for the possibility that the native Canon files will become obsolete.

Question for ALL Bootcamp Pros....

Ok so i am currently on a PC (and have officially decided that I hate PCs) and I want to switch over to the New Macbook Pro-15". See I have a rather advanced question about the Bootcamp program (cause i understand it's basic premiss). I was wondering, is it possible to use a Thumb Drive (like a 60GB USB Drive... and yes I do have one) as my hard drive partition instead of actually partitioning my hard drive on my new Mac. The reason why I am asking this is because I use up a lot of hard drive space (quickly) and I don't want to have to worry about using up my New Mac's hard drive.
So yes, my question is: Can I set up Bootcamp to use a 60GB USB Drive as my hard drive partition for Windows XP on my Mac? In addition, if I were to do this would anyone know how I would go about doing it?
Thanks for the help!

Why do you need Bootcamp at all. I'm not a gamer, and if I were, I'd find Mac versions, or a new game
Parallels 4 will let you boot XP from any drive you choose to move the Virtual Drive folder to. You can even store multiple copies of XP or run XP and Vista at the same time, with MacOS. Get plenty of ram for this...
Backing up Windows becomes so simple. Zip the folder and copy the file to a backup drive. Hose up your XP? Just delete the folder and move an uncompressed copy back to the right location. XP just runs again. No mixed partition drive, and the problems people have when they screw up removing the Windows partition.
Exclude the XP folder from Time Machine, and when working with XP save documents to the 'Shared' folder that Parallels creates (that isn't excluded from Time Machine) for hourly backups of your files.
If you trash XP on a Bootcamp partition, you are stuck with the same format and reinstallation of everything that you are trying to leave.

Easy question for all you ActionScript wizzkids!

I have created the following Actionscript to control a 'Next
Question' button. The idea is that it will choose a random frame to
link to in the current scene (Part2).
nextQ_btn.onRelease = function (){
gotoAndStop("Part2", n);
n = Math.random()*1+3;
At the moment, when I click the 'Next Question' button,
nothing happens. What's up with my script? My programming knowledge
is very limited and this is just about all that it can manage!
The button works when I take out the n variable and put in a
frame number manually.

monkee,
There appear to be two issues with your code:
1. you're calling n before you have defined it
2. you need to generate a random whole number and the random
number generator will have decimals
The solution is
1. call for n after you define it
2. use a rounding action to make the random number a whole
number
So:
nextQ_btn.onRelease = function (){
// generate a rounded random number between 0 and 4
n = Math.round(Math.random() * 4);
trace (n)
// go to the random number +1, making the range 1-5
gotoAndStop(n+1);
As you may already know, the trace action helps solve these
types of issues by letting you know the value of n if it is
defined... when you test movie, the results of the trace statement
show n has a value in the output window. In your original code, it
would show undefined.
Hope this helps. One other thing you may face is figuring out
a way not to ask the same question twice. You probably will want to
use an array of eligible questions before long.

Question for all programmers who use Xcode

Hi,
What style of indenting do you use?
1)<pre>
int myFunc(int num){
//some code
}</pre>
2)<pre>
int myFunc(int num)
//some code
}</pre>
I uses style 2, but I cannot get Xcode 2.4 to properly indent nested braces. Here is an example:
<pre>
class Test
public:
Test()
int x = 0;
while(x < 10)
{ <font color="2200cc"><------- should be moved to the left</font></pre>
Can anyone get that to indent properly in Xcode?

So, for instance, the
character sequence 'f' can be used to insert a for
loop in your code. It's amazing how fast it is to
write code with that feature.
Textmate has that. Make sure you have the proper language selected at the bottom of the file window. If you have "C" selected, all you have to do is type "for", then hit the tab key and you'll get a "for" loop. And you can even tab from bit to bit to fill in the parameters you want. I've poked around with adding my own completions, too. It's a little non-obvious to me, but it might not be to someone else.
Also, Xcode has something similar, just look at "Insert Text Macro" in the "Edit" menu. You can assign key bindings to any of those. So, for example, I bound "option"-"f" to the "for" loop. If you haven't already discovered it, there's an easy way to move from parameter to parameter, just use the "control"-"/" key combo.
Also, just tonight, I discovered the free Completion Dictionary plugin. It's really easy to define your own text macros. One thing I found puzzling was the key binding to expand the macro. Completion Dictionary comes with a key bindings file, but I couldn't make it work, so I just added a key binding to the "Expand Macro" submenu. Works a charm.
Finally, as to your original question, about the indenting. Did you want the "{" to line up directly below the "while"? If so, Textmate does that for me:
<pre class="command">class Test
public:
Test()
int x=0;
while (x<10)
// something.
}</pre>But that's a language I never use (Java or C++?), so I'm not real sure about that.
Finally, I should put in a word for BBEdit. It's what I actually use most of the time for work, since I work on a web site all day long and I've been using it forever. It has a slick feature where you can build various kinds of macros using Perl or other scripting languages, which is great for creating really complex (or tedious) bits of code. But it doesn't have the same kind of autocompletion as Textmate or Xcode does.

2 questions for all the iTunes PROS out there

I currently have the latest itunes software. I have recently formatted my pc, and need to add all my songs back into the itunes library. I have over 7000 songs all in the general folder
"Music". I do to File->Add folder to library->Then select that folder. It works for a bit scanning though files asks me to convert some, then it just crashes..... It would take me soooo long to do this folder by folder, does any1 know what is going on?
Since i have formatted my pc, when i plug my ipod in it says that it has been synced up to another itunes would i like to delete it all, any way around this? Or maybe can i somehow sync my ipod to my itunes, thus fixing the problem in my first question?
Thx soo much for any help
Myles

"Since i have formatted my pc, when i plug my ipod in it says that it has been synced up to another itunes would i like to delete it all, any way around this?"
When your iPod is set to update automatically you just need take care when connecting back to your computer and an empty iTunes. When you get the message that your iPod is linked to a different library and asking if you want to link to this one and replace all your songs etc, press "Cancel". Pressing "Erase and Sync" will irretrievably remove all songs from your iPod. Your iPod should appear in the iTunes source list from where you can change the update setting to manual and continue to use your iPod without the risk of accidentally erasing it. Check the "manually manage music and videos" box in Summary then press the Apply button: Managing content manually on iPod
You can also use a keyboard command to prevent your iPod auto-syncing with iTunes. While connecting the iPod to the computer on Windows with iTunes 7 installed hold down the Control and Alt keys (or Shift + Ctrl keys in older versions). This will stop the iPod from auto-syncing with iTunes and the iPod will appear in the source list. Wait until you are sure the iPod has mounted, and that it will not auto sync and then you can let the keys go. This may take between 20 to 30 seconds depending on your computer: iTunes 7 Keyboard Shortcuts for Windows
"Or maybe can i somehow sync my ipod to my itunes, thus fixing the problem in my first question?"
If you have any iTMS purchases the transfer of purchased content from the iPod to authorised computers has been introduced with iTunes 7. A paragraph on it has been added to this article: Transfer iTunes Store purchases using iPod
The transfer of non iTMS content such as songs imported from CD is designed by default to be one way from iTunes to iPod. However there is a manual method of accessing the iPod's hard drive and copying songs back to iTunes on Windows. The procedure is a bit involved but if you're interested it's posted in this thread: MacMuse - iPod to iTunes
If you prefer something more automated then there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod. This is just a selection, you'll find that they have varying degrees of functionality and some will transfer movies, videos and photos as well. Have a look at the web pages and documentation, they are generally quite straightforward. You can also read reviews of some of them here: Wired News - Rescue Your Stranded Tunes
YamiPod Mac and Windows Versions
iGadget Windows Only
iPod Access Mac and Windows Versions
PodUtil Mac and Windows Versions
iPodCopy Mac and Windows Versions
PodPlayer Windows Only
CopyPod Windows Only
Whichever of these retrieval methods you choose, keep your iPod in manual mode until you have reloaded your iTunes and you are happy with your playlists etc then it will be safe to return it auto-sync again.

QS1 MasterCard to QS MasterCard product change approved! Follow up questions for all.

My co-worker called in and requested a product change from QS1 to QS MasterCard with no annual fee after having the card for little over a month. My question is will the refund a portion of the annual fee and do you think they will make this card a World MasterCard? Her credit line is currently $3K.

In answer to the OP's other question, it will likely not be a World MasterCard. Capital One's frontline CSRs typically do not perform upgrades to the WMC version (although, once in awhile they will, usually if the limit is over $5000). Often to get the World MasterCard upgrade on your QS MasterCard, you will have to contact the EO like I did. Actually my co-worker called this a number and spoke with an Account Manager who then transfered her to another department. The person she spoke with put in the request and it was approved for a reular QS. She did not think to ask for a WMC or a cli. I did read in another post that folks were upgraded to a WEMC from a Platinum MC with cl as low as $2K, so shes hoping for a WMC or a WEMC. I think you misread my post. I never claimed that frontline customer service doesn't do upgrades from QS1's to QS's (in fact, MY upgrade to a QS MC originally was from a frontline CSR!) I stated specifically that frontline CSRs are not normally the ones who process the upgrades from QS MCs to QS World MCs (although once in awhile they do). However, myFICOers have had A LOT more success with the EO for this particular upgrade, as the frontline CSRs are usually powerless here.I understood what you were saying, I was just pointing out that my co-worker spoke with an Account Manager wh then transfered her to another department.

This is a question for all my adobe applications in the CS6 suite. How do i manually update them? I have not gotten any updates in about 6 months and they are running really slow. I really think this is the issue. How can i do this?

I am a full sail university film student and I need all my adobe applications running strong. Everything is running slow and sluggish. I think this might be the issue. Does anyone know how to manually update the adobe Cs6?

What does your computer's sluggishness have to do with any potentially missing updates? That's pretty much nonsense. The last AE update was the 11.0.4 one from November, anyway, and it's only relevant for Mac people more or less. Whatever issues you have have nothing to do with that but rather poor system configuration and maintenance - fragmented cache disks, disks almost full with temp files, too many other processes/ programs running and gobbling up resources, aggressive external tools like virus scanners blocking access to files and functions and so on. Really, you are completely looking in the wrong place. Bring your computer up to speed and AE will run a lot better.

A Few Serious Questions for ALL Programmers

I am fairly new to programming ,and ,so far, have only finished 2 programming classes at the college I attend.
One class was a mix of Program Logic and C++.
The other was Visual Basic.
Right now I am in Java 1.
I absolutely LOVED C++ and Visual Basic, especially the latter.
I know a lot of people bash VB but I really liked it and I don't know why so many people "Pick on" it.
Anyway, I finished TOP in my class for VB and am well on my way to finishing top in the Java class.Not because I am a genius, but because I really put alot into it and even the smallest things sometimes takes me hours.
I sit at my computer and when I get an idea, I usually do not stop until I have it figured out.
I find the answers most of the time but IT COMES REALLY HARD TO ME!
The problem I am having is this: When I come here and see some of the sample codes and sample codes that I see elsewhere, like for a " 3D Molecule viewer" I get VERY frustrated because I feel like, to get anywhwere, I will have to be a genius like the people who write such code.
My fear is that I will only get to be mediocre at best and there will be no place for me in the Programming world...
I guess what I am really asking is this:If you are a great programmer, like somone who can whip out code for ANYTHING, did you always "Get It" or did it seem like you never would and eventually had an epiphany and "Got It".?...
Also, how much of programming is about using existing classes and how much is totally writing your own Classes and Methods.
I know the phrase, "Why re-invent the wheel?" but how much good does it do for me if I parse code all the time?--what are your thoughts on this?

Not because I am a genius, but because I really put alot into it and even the smallest things sometimes takes me hours. I sit at my computer and when I get an idea, I usually do not stop until I have it figured out. I find the answers most of the time but IT COMES REALLY HARD TO ME!You have hit on a key component here. Your willingness to sit there for hours on end trying and trying and trying. Even then, when it still won't run properly, you get back at it tommorrow and try some more. Many people do not have this patience, and get distracted by the TV, or by their friends, or by their friends and TV ...and they walk away after an hour.
I too received the highest marks in nearly every class I took at school. Classmates used to say "Ya, but this stuff comes easy to you." No it didn't, I just spend more time with the labs than they did ...thats why I always received the better grades. I appeared to know more, but really I had just made more mistakes than most of my classmates. When it came to the exams, I was like "Oh, I made that mistake last week". My peers, however, had not made these mistakes yet and got tricked into choosing wrong answers on their exams.
I think programming experience creeps into our brain subconciously while we do it. One day, certain things that once boggled your mind will seem second nature. This comes from just doing it. I think you sound like you are on the right track. And don't worry, even though I know about a few things in Java ...I am constantly in awe of most of the good people I see throughout this forum. Everyone has something to teach, and everyone can always learn something new. What is important is that you don't get discouraged and give up. Now enough of the pep talk, where's my coffee and my compiler. Ah, there they are.
Good luck and I wish you all the best.

Question for all you vets of iweb

i am wondering- with all the probs with iweb which yes, most are fixable, albeit with a lot of hassle and/or html knowledge, why would you not use one of the other programs listed elsewhere on the forums--like rapidweaver, softpress, etc?
it seems that they are all multi-os/browser compatible and the designs/templates look as good and easy to use as iweb. Or is this not correct?
Just wondering if any of you use them and why you choose Iweb instead?
thx

Okay quick easy question for all who have successfully uploaded videos

hi, this is my first post in the Apple forums!
my quick question:
I have Quicktime Pro, and am currently exporting a video to the iPod
but it is taking an unusually long time...
is this normal (and by long I mean I'm @ 16% and it has been 5 minutes)
do I just need to be more patient?
thanks
^_^

don't say that...
I successfully uploaded videos to my iPod I just was not doing it right
my question has been answered already so STOP BRINGING IT UP AGAIN
also, look... many people just got their iPods today and are kinda anxious to see the video capibilities work on them, so If you do not have anything constructive to say (by calling us n00bs), then I suggest you don't say anything at all
