Quick question: What is "WDS"?

What does it mean? I keep seeing the term but not sure what it is. Thanks.

WDS stands for "Wireless Distribution Service" and is a technology used by some wireless routers to connect routers together in a network wirelessly.
If your router does not support WDS then it cannot connect wirelessly to another router, even if it itself is a wireless router.
i.e. a Netgear DG834G is a wireless router/modem and can wirelessly connect with wireless clients such as laptops and desktop computers that have a wireless adapter. It cannot however connect wirelessly to an Airport Extreme N wirelessly as the Netgear doesn't support WDS, the only way to connect the routers is with a physical ethernet cable running between the two, not always possible or desirable in the home!
Hope that helps, Grumpy.

Quick Question: What to import for SimpleList

Hi all, I am trying to use the SimpleList class but I get this error: "SimpleList cannot be resolved to a type". I cannot fine SimpleList on Sun's class documentation site. I tried importing java.util.* as I believed that SimpleList fit in with other things like containers but this did not work. Any takers?

Quick question: what is the difference between graphic and movie clips?

What is the difference between the two symbols: graphic and movie clips? They both contain frames..?

movie clips can have
instance names : so they can be controlled via actionscript
filters applied : drop shadow, glow, blur, color adjust etc
blend modes applied : difference, screen, lighten, darken, etc.
3d transformations
graphics:
none of the above
the only real practical reason to use a graphic is the reason jdehaan stated. a graphics internal animation can be scrubbed via the main timeline. graphics will only advance when the main timeline advances. when the main timeline stops.. graphics stops.
movieclips on the otherhand are said to run independent of the main timeline. so you can have a MAIN timeline with one frame only and the movieclip's interior animation will run constantly.
also via the properties panel you can tell a graphic to stay stuck on a certain frame or loop a set number of times.
always use movieclips unless you have a reason not too. as kglad said it will save you and others a lot of hurt in the future.

Quick question....What If I Delete Original Photos???

Hi, quick question...
I created a folder on my desktop and put some photos in it. I then imported these photos into iPhoto to make an album. Now, does this mean I can delete the original folder on my desktop? Or, if I do this will the photos in my iPhoto album not display?
Hope this makes sense, thanks for any advice!
Regards.

IF you are using the default and strongly recommended managed library (the iPhoto advanced preference to "copy imported items to the iPhoto library" is checked) then you can delete the photos form the source (disk or camera) after they are imported and you have verified that they are safely in iPhoto - It is also recommended that you never let iPhoto delete photos form the camera but after properly disconnecting the camera and verifying the import you use the camera format command to delete them
If you have a referenced library (the above mentioned preference has been unchecked) then you can not delete the photos - in fact even moving them can be problematic

Report Generation Toolkit Error Quick Question

Hi,
I created the most awesome LabVIEW report ever at my desk using a trial version of the RGT and Office 2003. I took this to my production machine and ")@#(&%(*#^%()^!!!" The production machine has office 2007 and a fully licensed version of the RGT. Both machines have LabVIEW 8.6.0. I've read all the stuff about these errors and something about classes and dll's and whatnot's. So my quick question, is: Instead of matching the versions of Microsoft Office as recommended, can I just rewrite from scratch the VI that creates this world's most awesome LabVIEW report on the production machine to create the same effect?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hi
Quick Answer: Probably
Slower answer: Microsoft changed a lot of things behind the scenes in Office 2007, but the Report Generation toolkit version 1.1.3 supports Office 2007 so you should be good to go. Depends on what functions are included in your VI. Liek the read me says "Several default settings in Microsoft Office 2007 differ slightly from previous versions. Reports you generate using Office 2007 might look different than reports you generate from other versions of Office because font sizes, cell sizes, and so on, differ."

Two quick questions about Library after moving beginning on a new computer

Hi there,
I just moved from Windows to Mac, meaning I had to move my iTunes library from the old PC to my new MBA.
Just a couple of quick questions.
1. When I started iTunes on my new Mac, in the preferences I directed the media folder to the folder with all my itunes music/podcasts etc, and then I imported the Library XML file. Is this incorrect? Should I have imported a different file? Should I have used the itl file instead?
If so, should I delete the library and start again? (if this is the case, please suggest the best way of doing this without affecting my media)
- a kind of sub-question to this one: some of the media files arent showing up in the iTunes library, but they are in the media folder on the ext HDD. Is there a way I can find out which ones havent been recognized by iTunes? Whats the best way of getting them in to my library?
2. Pretty much half of my podcasts have not been loaded in the new iTunes. The ones that havent were ones that I subscribed to on my iPhone, whereas the ones that show up in iTunes were ones I downloaded from iTunes. When I connect my iPhone and sync it with iTunes, will those podcasts show up in iTunes? Or is there a risk that they will be deleted from my iPhone?
Cheers,

The .xml is lacking some information such as ratings, date added, and play count. Using the .itl includes this information but cannot be imported using the method you did.
A complete library is everything in the iTunes folder. By using the method you did you left the artwork behind in the artwork folder on the other machine.
Selecting the media folder in preferences does not get iTunes to recognize the media. All it does is tell iTunes to start storing new media in that location.
Using the method I outlined nothing will be missed (with the exception of WMA) because you aren't rebuilding your library, you are using the one that already exists.
You don't have to re-copy everything as long as you get the stuff you missed and re-assemble it all as it was before except not on the Mac.

A quick question about WebDynpro SLD and R/3 with concurrent users

Hello ,
I have a very quick question about Webdynpros and SLD connecting to an R/3 system, when you configure a webdynpro to connect to an R/3 system using SLD, you configure a user name and password from the R/3 for the SLD to use. What I would like to know is when I have concurrent users of my webdynpro, how can I know what one user did in R/3 and what another user did? Is there a way for the users of the web dynpro to use their R/3 credentials so SLD can access the R/3? Like dynamically configuring the SLD for each user?
- I would like to avoid leaving their their passwords open in the code ( configuring two variable to get the users username and password and use these variables as JCO username and password )
Thanks Ubergeeks,
Guy

Hi Guy
You will have to use Single Sign On to achieve this. In the destination you have defined to connect to R/3 , there is an option to 'useSSO' instead of userid and password. This will ensure that calls to R/3 will be with the userid that has logged into WAS. You wont need to pass any passwords because a login ticket is generated from WAS and passed on to R/3. The userid is derived from this ticket.
For this to happen you will have to maintain a trust relation ship between R/3 and your WAS ,there is detailed documentation of this in help files. Configuration is very straight forward and is easy to perform

Quick question regarding best practice and dedicating NIC's for traffic seperation.

Hi all,
I have a quick question regarding best practice and dedicating NIC's for traffic seperation for FT, NFS, ISCSI, VM traffic etc. I get that its best practice to try and separate traffic where you can and especially for things like FT however I just wondered if there was a preferred method to achieving this. What I mean is ...
- Is it OK to have everything on one switch but set each respective portgroup to having a primary and failover NIC i.e FT, ISCSI and all the others failover (this would sort of give you a backup in situations where you have limited physical NICs.
- Or should I always aim to separate things entirely with their own respective NICs and their own respective switches?
During the VCAP exam for example (not knowing in advance how many physical NIC's will be available to me) how would I know which stuff I should segregate on its own separate switch? Is there some sort of ranking order of priority /importance? FT for example I would rather not stick on its own dedicated switch if I could only afford to give it a single NICs since this to me seems like a failover risk.

I know the answer to this probably depends on however many physical NICs you have at your disposal however I wondered if there are any golden 100% rules for example FT must absolutely be on its own switch with its own NICs even at the expence of reduced resiliency should the absolute worst happen? Obviously I know its also best practice to seperate NICs by vender and hosts by chassis and switch etc

Quick question about sim transfer

Hi all,
I have a quick question and hopefully one of you guys would be able to help me. My friend purchased his 3g iphone today and hes giving me his old iphone. I currently have a blackjack and I wanted to take the sims card from the blackjack and put into the original iphone. Will the iphone work with my sims card? It is an older sims card, says 64k on it. If not, would I have to bring it into at&t and get it activated w/a different sims card? Hopefully all this isnt confusing. Thanks for any help. Cheers!

You're welcome.
I guess that also means I would have to upgrade to the 20 dollar data plan without the text messages as well?
The unlimited data plan for the first generation iPhone still costs $20/mo and includes 200 SMS. The only thing you need to get from an at&t store is a new SIM card. Take the iPhone with you telling them what you plan on doing and they should give you a new SIM card at no cost.
You will activate this iPhone with iTunes on your computer. If you are an existing subscriber, your calling plan will transfer to the iPhone, and any existing data plan you are using with your current phone will be cancelled. If you are an existing subscriber, your only selection will be the $20/mo unlimited data plan which includes 200 SMS, and you can select 1,500 SMS for an additional $10/mo or have unlimited SMS for an additional $20/mo.

Quick Question (re:exporting from iMovie into iDVD)

Hello everyone!
I just have a quick question for you all... (I want to see if this is normal - I'm on a deadline and this is kind of freaking me out)
So, we have a 20 minute or so video in iDVD. It plays fine, etc etc. The goal is to burn it to a DVD.
I used the "Export -> to iDVD" function in iMovie, which launched iDVD.
But here is the weird thing: nothing comes up in iDVD. It doesn't make a new file, doesn't give me anything... it is just open, waiting for me to create a new project to work with.
YET, if I look in the Activity Monitor, I do see that EncoderServer (using 123% CPU) and ThumbnailServer (both iDVD processes) are running.... but shouldn't iDVD have told me it is working or that it is dealing with data?
This is very un-"apple". I totally would have expected a progress bar of some sort in iDVD telling me it is working or something.... or is something wrong and I should try to export it in a different way?
(I guess the underlying question is: when you export from iMovie to iDVD, does iDVD normally give you any 'heads-up' that it is working? how long does it normally take to open the project in iDVD?)

Hi Matt!
when you export from iMovie to iDVD, does iDVD normally give you any 'heads-up' that it is working? how long does it normally take to open the project in iDVD?)
Yes, and it's instant.
What you should see is iDVD opening and asking you to create a new project, It will suggest naming it the same as the iMovie project.
There are reports that exporting from Imovie to iDVD can produce problems. What I do is save the iMovie project and close iMovie. Open iDVD, create the new DVD project, then go the File menu in iDVD, scroll down to Import, and in the side menu select Video. This open your Movie Folder, wherein resides your iMovie project. Select it and it imports into iDVD in a flash.
Remember: iMovie projects go in the Movies Folder, iDVD projects go in the Documents folder. Change that, and they get very confused and unhappy.

Quick Question re Data Source

Hi
I have a quick question re datasource login.
I havent touched my Crystal Reports for about a year. Since I created the reports (which users have been using through Crystal Reports server) I have changed my PC.
I need to make a change in the formulas of the reports so I have reinstalled Crystal Reports 11 onto my PC and opened the reports. The forumula change is simple but I am having a nightmare with the data source login. The report runs against an SQL database. From memory all I did the last time was create an ODBC connection on my PC (which used the the SQL login sa account) and configured the reports to use that ODBC connection. When I open the report it asks me for the data source location which I tell it to use the one I created and the report runs fine.
If I close Crystal Reports and and then re-open, I press F5 to run the report and it gain asks me for the data source credentials.
Any ideas, I'm sure it is something simple I am missing?
Thanks

Guys
Thanks for your help
Ive managed to fix it but not really sure how although I'm sure a few of the things you have mentioned is what I have done.
I basically restored the reports from last nights backup (before I did the changes), re-did the changes and saved and now it seems to work. I think the difference here is that I had created the odbc connection prior to changing the reports - if that makes sense?
What I would like to do is fully understand how this data source connection works.
Don, when I open the report now and hit f5 the report presents me with the parameters and not the database login screen as it was doing before - how is this? What credentials is it using? The SQL sa account (which I configured the ODBC connection to use) or is it my domain account of which I assume permissions for this account must be set on the actual SQL database?
As you and Jeff suggested when I look at the datasource connection screen it shows "trusted Connection: 1" - what does this mean and how is this configured, have I configured this in Crystal somewhere?
Thanks
Andy

IMovie - quick questions about video files when importing and optimizing

Hi, have some quick questions. I think they are simple.
1. When I import a video (from say iPhoto), where does it get "Move" or "Copy" to?
2. Why would I want to do "Copy" instead of "Move", because isn't it then taking up more space?
3. I'm wondering if after I optimize a video, I can stash away the original (non-optimized video that I either "Move"d or "Copy"d earlier) into an external hd.
4. By the way, what is the new file name of the optimized video?
Though things are working fine in iMovie and iPhoto, I'm trying to manage hard disk space, and hope answers to these questions will help.
Do you guys have a guideline on how to manage hard disk space when it comes to iphoto and imovie?
Thanks.

As has been suggested you can encourage people to download QuickTime player by doing something like this...
http://www.mirroroftheuniverse.com/Songs.html
You can also present your songs like this...
http://roddymckay.com/Satellite/JukeBox.html
This is a SnoCap jukebox and you need an account to use it but you'll get the link to ESnips on the above page.
A 3 minute song has a file size of about 30 Mb in AIFF format. Converting it to MP3 reduces it to about 3.5 Mb and M4A to about 5.5 Mb.
iTunes will do these conversions for you and M4A is far superior to MP3 as far as sound quality is concerned.

Quick Question **PLEASE HELP** .jar file?

Hey everyone, im pretty new to the java scene but I have a really quick question that hopefully someone can help me with.
I'm really interested in making a .jar file out of my code. And basically I just want to make one. but i understand there are certain things like main class's, etc. that need to be made in order to make a .jar file.
So basically Say I opened up a new project in blueJ. I made 1 new class called "main." Inside of it I had nothing for conductors and no variables declaired untill the bottom part where i write my code.
say i write...
System.out.println("hello");
and that is it.
What steps from there do i do to make a jar file and have it be able to be executed and SEE the "hello" printed somewhere NOT in blueJ??
(I understand there is something about a "static" method? Im not really sure but if somoene could enlighten me on how to make a .jar file that would be great.)
Thanks a lot everyone!
Tom

I don't know anything about BlueJ, but this section of Sun's tutorial explains how to
write a program that outputs a single line of text to the console:
http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/getStarted/cupojava/win32.html
Deploying an application as an executable .jar file is covered here:
http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/deployment/jar/index.html
The first two sections - "Using JAR Files: The Basics" and "Working with Manifest
Files: The Basics" - contain the information you need to understand this process.

Hi. Quick question I am working with Panasonic GH3 footage and it is playing back in slow motion?

Hi. Quick question I am working with Panasonic GH3 footage shot using .MOV wrapper with their IPB 50mbps and All-Intra 72MBPS codecs and they are playing back in slow motion in Sg CC. The footage works fine in PP CC and I have no clue on how to fix it. Is this a bug or do I a have a setting wrong some place?

Yes it turns red this is silly PP and AE have no problem with playback for these codecs. So it is indeed Sg not handling the codec correctly and not my system?
What if I transcoded it to something else other than the previous what would you reccommend?
I was going to transcode to ProRes but 5DtoRGB does not work on Windows with GH3 codecs.
What is the correct time warp seting under clip properties? I screwed with it and forgot the default setting.
Is there a way to reset Sg back to defaults settings globaly. I tried to many settings trying to fix the playback and may have left something in the wrong state.
Thanks...
