Recommendations Needed Please

I just purchased a 13 inch MacBook Pro (2011) and I want to get a Case and a carring sleeve for my new laptop. Can someone please direct me to a high quality Case and Sleeve with a link to a official place to buy it. I am thinking about getting the Speck 13" SeeThru Case
and the Incase Neoprene Slim Sleeve but if anyone can show me better products with a reasonable price please let me know.
                                                                                        Thanks
                                                                                      Daniel Sims
                                                                                    @SimsDaniel

I recently bought a macbook air sleeve (danish) from Pack & Smooch, which in my opinion is the best sleeve on the market. Take a look at Pack & Smooch, but if you don't like sleeves in wool, then I suggest you go for a incase sleeve (the one that shldr2thewheel isn't unique, but it does what you would expect from a sleeve).

What type of Mac do I need please?

Hi ,
I would like some advice on the type of Mac and Spec I need please for my business. I am unsure about whether I should get a macbook pro, imac or desktop mac pro. Most computer jargon goes straight over my head so please if you answer use small non technical words!!!
This is what I need the computer for:
1. Top quality Video Editing - Final Cut Pro. I will be using the computer for a lot of Video Editing. I need a computer that is capable of rendering video at fast speeds without compromising the performance too much.
2. Multi-tasking - I want to be able to be working on photoshop, whilst encoding or compressing video, downloading something from the web and running a few programmes at the same time such as InDesign etc
3. Disk Space - I will have a lot of video content (raw footage and edited that I need to store) but having said that, I'm guessing a slight upgrade to a 2TB hard drive would do.
4. My business works with the latest Online Games such as World of Warcraft and so the Graphics Cards / Memory / Processor Speeds needs to be able to run these online MMORPGs at the optimal speeds, frame rates etc
That is pretty much it. I am unsure about what type of Mac computer to get. My budget is tops £5k including VAT but I'd prefer not to spend that if I don't need to.....I just want a computer (27 inch screen) that can do all the above comfortably.
Thanks very much for any help that is offered, much appreciated,

MHz and GHz matter.
Also, dual processor has overhead.
6-core single processor is the equal or better and optimized even to an 8-core (which would be 2.93GHz and BTO$)
Blame Apple for "hiding" the 6-core.
Poor web site design: have a page for single processor configurations, not "Quad-core models" where there is BTO 3.33GHz for $1200 extra. Buy your own 2.8 and buy W3680 $600, then sell the 2.8, and you walk away with $900 saved.
Buy the Special (not avail in UK) 2.8 for US$2119 and upgrade processor in under hour.
Refurbished Mac Pro 2.8GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon - Apple Store (U.S.)
Offer a dual processor 12-core @ 3.33GHz for the high end most demanding (and US$7.5K or more?)
That is what MPG and OWC Mac Pro Turnkey Program can do. And MPG does sell custom configs configured and tested.
I would never recommend 8-core at this point. You spend $6200 for 2.93GHz x 8, ($2500 more than 6-core and still 400MHz slower per core); 2.4GHz is a joke, and even the 2.66 US$5000 is not even close! Nope.
Build a workstation, that's another matter and gets interesting if your primary apps and OS run on Windows.

Help needed please, with Iphone stuck with apple picture and progress bar after software update attempted

Help needed please, everytime I try to update the software version on my iphone it comes up with a message saying it could not be completed and is now frozen with the apple picture and progress bar on it. Do I unplug it and hope the macbook pro sees it again, I also stupidly did not back up before starting the download which I realise I will have to go back to the previous back up. This keeps happening, everytime I do this type of update, I'm starting to think I should just give up on updating my software on the Iphone. I thought it was happening because I was using a window based computer to do the updates, this time I used my Macbook Pro. Please somebody help

Everything is not working fine, and a pop with sparks is not a normal result from turning on a power supply. If you got it from Tiger send it back and get this one.
I talked to the rep earlier, but I had to go to a meeting. When I called him back he said he was on the phone with Intel to make sure my CPU would work with that board. I know it will work so I have no clue why he called them. He didn't seem to concerned about the PSU though. I told him that the PSU popped and made sparks and it didn't phase him at all. I already told him I wanted to exchange the RAM with different kind and I wanted a new PSU. When I give him the new RAM and the PSU I want I will give this one a try.
Thank you for your help.

Hi
That screen grab helps a lot. There’s a much easier way of doing what you’re doing.
Remove all your tabs and set the text in justified paragraphs.
I’ve typed in dummy text in the example I made below, but after “19.1” put in a space and put your blinking cursor after the space and before the ’N’ of ‘Notices'.
Then hold down the Command key and hit Backspace (on Mac at least - it’s the key between the Inverted commas/ apostrophe key and the return key).
The text will jump into place the way you want it to.
Hope that helps
Paul
PS You can set a tab, instead of using a space, in the description I gave above. So, after 19.1 or 19.2 or 19.185 etc etc insert a tab, then hit the Command Backspace after every paragraph number and they'll all line up exactly together. You'll find that editing text within the paragraphs
after you've set it will be LOADS easier this way.
You can put the tab anywhere you want it to be using 'Command-ShiftT' and putting a 'left align' tab just after the number. Just type the Command Backspace after the paragraph number and it'll work

Suggestions needed please!

I just bought an ipad 3 and when I connected to my computer it said "Not Charging". Also, not able to sync with itunes. Suggestions needed please!

Most usb ports do not provide enough power to charge your ipad, plug into a wall outlet to charge. If you leave it plugged into the computer and the computer goes to sleep, it can actually drain the battery.

Have you guys been able to activate your iphone yet? I bought an iphone 4s from eBay and it worked fine, but the previous user had left some data on it, so last night I used the "erased all content and settings" to restore it to factory setting so I can start fresh and restore my backup. But now I'm stuck at the activation screen (I get the same "the activation server is temporarily unavailable") and can't get it to activate, even if I use my old deactivated AT&T sim card (I'm on straighttalk now).
I might try activating it with an active AT&T sim card from my fiancee's phone when she gets home, so I'll let you know how that works outs.
If it's true that the server is down; anyone know when it will be back up again? Thanks in advance.

Need Recommendations on Best Configuration For My SW Needs Please!

Ok,
Besides all the "normal" stuff, I run Apple Aperture and Pixelmator (may one day move to PhotoShop). My finances limit me to either a 4 core @ 2.93Ghz or an 8 core @ 2.26Ghz. (Assume the RAM is the same at 6G.
Which unit will deliver me the best performance for these applications? If you need more info, please just let me know.
Thanks in advance!

Hi,
Don't forget about places like this:http://www.powermax.com/parts/code/PMCNMP
I saved $400 in taxes buying my Mac from them. And they are darn fine people to boot.
Also keep an eye out for what Apple sells as refurbished. Not that much of a price break, but it is some. Plus, Applecare is almost essential for these machines and that still covers their used models.
The 8 core will give you a little more speed and offers more options for growth, but I think the Hatters advice is very sound.

Ipod & itunes library Hwelp needed please

Hi, I need a little help please organising my itunes library before I synch with my ipod.

I can create a new playlist and drag & drop into this but not into the new Audiobook Library were they really need to be. I must have some settings

May thanks.

You can use one of the many 3rd party programs that copy music from the iPod to the computer.
One of the most recommended is Yamipod. This is a free program that transfers music from iPod back to the computer. However, it does not transfer playcounts/ratings etc.
Another free program is Pod Player.
SharePod is also freeware.
If you want to recover just the structure of playlists from the iPod (and not the actual song files themselves), there's iRepo for Windows. which I understand has this feature along with all the standard features for these programs.
iPodRip also has the feature enabling you to reconstruct playlists.
There is also CopyTrans. This does preserve ratings/playcounts etc if those are important to you but this program is not free. It also supports video transfer.

Java Book - Recommendations Needed.

Recommendations for a good BEGINNERS book please.

If you're completely new to programming then I'd suggest checking out some of the older books on first principles that they'll have available in your college library.
This kind of foundation will massively reduce the learning curve for any language.
Then hit the 2nd hand bookstores and find an earlier edition of one of the books mentioned above. All the marketing crap claiming that a new edition is completely updated is irrelevant to your needs. The core language has changed very little in about 6 years, (since the abortion that was the 1.0 event model was justifiably taken out behind the chemical sheds and shot), so anything 1.1 and onwards will suffice as long as you can get access to the errata pages on the web.
Of course, the best approach is simply to use the free resources on this and other sites because the programming manuals aren't overly useful to students entering the field for the first time. I say this because you'll probably be looking at two types of task:
1) Practical programming (probably so simplistic that you'll be able to solve with reference to the API docs)
2) Theoretical stuff (Better to look to academic books, trade journals, etc.)

Recommendation needed on: Locking Down BW Client / Object Changeability:

Hello Experts,
We recently had a problem on our production box and we found the need to lock down the environment with scc4.
We further used object changeability to control the environment and it has been hell ever since. Users have had difficulties running queries, etc.
In a typical BW production environment, what is the approach and what is the common practice?
(Please for each recommended approach include any command you mention)
For example, what transaction do we use to see various users and their authorizations, etc. Who made modification on which object, etc.
Thanks.

Hi Amanda,
In SCC4, you should maintain following values.
Under
>Changes and transport for client specific objects
no changes allowed
under
>Cross client object changes
no changes to repository and cross client customizing
objects
Under
> Protection : Client copier and comparison tool
Protection level 1: NO OVERWRITING
Regards
Sriram
