Record and sample libraries from same HD?

My question is would it be okay if I for example used one large external hard drive and made 2 partitions - one partition for recording into logic and the other for streaming sample libraries. Is this a no no? Or, should I have 2 external hd's - one dedicated to logic recording and one for sample libraries?
I would like to just get one large hd if possible - so I won't have to lug around 2
Cheers

Hi
Generally, it is not a good idea to have samples streaming from the same drive as the audio (project) material... (though it would depend on the nature of the project (predominantly samples or predominantly audio files).
With 'standard' rotating HD's rather than SSD's, the drive would end up being slower because it was trying to find data from several places at the same time. Partitioning the drive would not help in this sort of situation either since the drive head would have to try to read/write to separate partitions at the same time.
With SSD's, the read/write speeds are so much faster that for most purposes one drive would suffice (provided that the external drive to Mac connection was fast enough to cope (Thunderbolt). No need to partition. You *might* get away with a FW800 connection, but you would not be getting the best from the SSD.
You run into similar issues with external (rotating) RAID drives... the overall speed depends on the controllers/connection bus (FW800 vs USB 3 vs Thunderbolt etc) as well as the speed of the drives themselves.

Any way to restore iTunes and iPhoto libraries from failed Time Machine backup?

Is there a way to restore iTunes and iPhoto libraries from an unmountable Time Machine backup?
Background: I received an update alert on my iMac (mid-2010, 1TB) from Time Machine (wirelessly connected to a Time Capsule, 2TB 2013) that it required an update and required rebooting, of course, it happened when I was in the middle of a project and I postponed the restart for later. That evening I turned off the computer and coincidentally the next morning, the iMac would not start; it loaded to the Apple logo and about an 1/8 of the progress bar would load before the iMac would turn off.
The iMac had been fine to that day (OS upgrades and all since 2010) so I was assuming something misfired when I declined the Time Machine update. I tried the PRAM and SMC resets mentioned in the forums but no dice. I then went into Disk Utility to try repairs and there were errors on the hard drive that could not be fixed. My next step was to erase the drive and restore from my Time Machine backup. Before doing that I checked Disk Utility and to my horror, it told me that my Time Machine backups were unmountable so of course my first thought was that all my files were gone.
The TC was under warranty so I called support and they referred me to the local Genius Bar. The Genius was great and showed me that my files weren't lost even though the Time Machine backup was unmountable. They recommended I erase the partitions, starting from scratch and I would have to transfer the Time Machine backup files manually by directly connecting an ethernet cable from the TC to the computer. If that didn't work, the hard drive was bad and needed replacement which they could take care of.
I followed their recommendation and the hard drive is fine. I was so relieved to hear that my files were safe that I forgot to ask about all of the metadata that was lost in iTunes (de-selected songs, playlists, rankings, play counts) and iPhoto (geotags, names, etc). Any ideas / help? I sank considerable time into my music and photos and would love to have that time back.
FWIW, I'm in the process of buying an external hard drive as a secondary backup to the TC as my confidence is a little shaken on the product line - the first time I ever actually need a backup and the backup is unmountable. My whole point of spending a little more and buying into the Apple ecosystem for a backup solution was to streamline the backup process and avoid these types of issues.

Thank you for the reply. I tried the Disk Utility to repair my TC's Time Machine backup disk with no luck, it stopped with the message:
Disk utility stopped repairing "iMac"
Disk Utility can't repair this disk. Back up as many of your files as possible, reformat the disk, and restore your backed-up files.
It took a night but I was able to copy all the TC Time Machine files to the external hard drive as a backup to a backup just in case. I'm still pretty bummed the TC's backup didn't allow for Disk Utility's restore functionality. Fortunately, the iPhoto library backup I dragged to the iMac from the Time Capsule backup worked without a hitch. On the downside, the "iTunes Library.itl" backup I dragged over is locked so now I'm checking out the forums for any ways to fix that. I temporarily created a new iTunes library with all my apps and music but plan on reverting to the old iTunes library if possible so I can start syncing my iOS devices again.

How can you create a playlist with music and music video and play those from same playlist through Apple TV?

How can you create a playlist on Ipod touch with music and music video, and play those from same playlist through Apple TV? I can download, create a playlist with both music and music video, stream that through the Apple TV with no problem. The sound and the information show up on the TV, but when it gets to a music video, it only shows the information and "artwork".
I also have a video playlist - videos play fine through the Apple TV, but will not shuffle through all videos - continues to repeat the same one. I have most definitely selected shuffle in both locations - from the playlist and on the ipod video screen while video is playing.

I finally got it... had to sync the photos with the music in iMovie, arrange the voiceover in GarageBand then export to iTunes, and then I was able to put it all together in iMovie and burn in iDVD... had a few glitches along the way but finally finished : )

HT1553 I want to do a clean install of Mountain Lion. Can I do this without a DVD version of the OS, and can I restore only specific things like iPhoto and iTunes libraries from Time Machine backup.

I want to do a clean install of Mountain Lion. Can I do this without a DVD version of the OS, and can I restore only specific things like iPhoto and iTunes libraries from Time Machine backup.

Mountain Lion is only available as a download, so there is no DVD to purchase. What you can do is download ML and then stop it from installing as soon as it's on your drive. From there you can make your own bootable ML flash drive.
When your purchase and download Mountain Lion, it will end up in the Applications folder and automatically want to install. Press Command+Q to stop the install and exit. The installer will remain on the hard drive.
1) Right click on the installer and choose "Show Package Contents".
2) A folder will open on the desktop. Drill down to Contents > SharedSupport and double click the disk image InstallESD.dmg to mount it on the desktop.
3) From here you can either burn a DVD, or copy the contents to a flash drive. Personally, I would strongly suggest using an 8 GB flash drive formatted as Mac OS Extended. You will be able to boot to it in about 30 seconds instead of at least 10 minutes off of a DVD, and it will install MUCH faster. Make sure the flash drive is empty, or you've copied anything off it it you need as it will need to be erased.
4) Don't just drag and drop the contents you see in the open disk image to the flash drive. It won't boot that way as it will be missing some hidden files. Open Disk Utility. You will something similar to this:
5) To accomplish the above, highlight either the flash drive's single partition (as I did), or the item at the bottom (Mac OS X Install ESD), which is what you will see with the Lion disk image mounted. It doesn't matter which one you pick. You'll then have the option to select the Restore tab towards the upper right. Drag and drop from the left column into the Source and Destination fields as shown above. If you've already erased the flash drive, you can uncheck the box. Click the Restore button.
You've just made your own bootable Mountain Lion USB Flash drive installer. Once you boot to the flash drive, run Disk Utility first to erase the drive you want Mountain Lion on, then continue with the install.
As far as restoring your iPhone and iTunes libraries, I couldn't tell you. So I wouldn't do any of the above until someone else chimes in with a way to do that after a clean install of ML.

Result Recording and Sample calculation

Dear Experts,
I have a concern regarding the sampling designed
According to the sampling plan in local SOP the samples to be taken for all ZAPI and ZRAW as per below points.
Withdraw sample from each container for Identification test. Here the sample size will very form material to material.
Make a pool of sample according to No. of containers /5 for Other tests, like Assay,LOD,Potency,Microbiological tests etc...
And there is Retention Sample.
To meet this requirement, I have designed the sample management like this......
There will be two partial Samples for Sample drawing procedure
Partial Sample 010 has formula for Primary Samples :- P2.
Partial Sample 010 has no Pooled Sample
Partial Sample 010 has Reserved Sample; Fixed No 1; along with Sample Size.
Partial Sample 020 has Primary Sample IF P2>=5 THEN P2/5 ELSE P2 to meet the pooling of containers for other test than Identification.
Partial Sample 020 has Pooled sample 1
Partial Sample 020 has no Reserved Sample.
No at the other end In inspection plan we have two operations;
Operation 0010 ; Identification where all the MICs will be linked with Partial Sample 010 and Sample size for Identification test will be assigned along with Sampling procedure.
Operation 0020; QC Laboratory where all the MICs will be linked with Partial Sample 020 and Sample size for Chemical and Micro Analysis tests will be assigned along with Sampling procedure.
For an example for Material X:-
Sample Size = 2gm, for Identification (ID) is maintained at respective MICs in Inspection plan
Sample Size = 50gm, for Chemical and Micro Analysis tests maintained at respective MICs in Inspection plan
Sample Size = 150gm maintained at SDP for Reserved.
If we receive a consignment 10 Containers for Material X. Then system will create sample as below.
10 Primary samples from Partial Sample 010 of SDP each have sample size 2 and result needs to be recorded for each sample. This is very lengthy hence not acceptable to business.
02 Primary samples from Partial Sample 020 of SDP each have sample size 25 and result not required to be recorded for it.
01 Pooled samples from Partial Sample 020 of SDP each have sample size 50 and result needs to be recorded for it.
01 Reserved Sample (There is no issue with this so not elaborating more)
Total Sample size is 220 (20+50_150)
{10*2=20 Primary Samples for ID
2*25=50 Pooled Samples for Chem and Micro
150 Retain Sample}
Now the requirement is We don't want to record result for all 10 Primary sample from Partial Sample 010 but want to calculate the sample size as per above quantity.
Kindly give me some guidance!!!!!!!
Regards,
Shyamal

I think what you'll need to do is create a sampling procedure for each container type you expect to receive. So if you get BUOM KG's in 55 gal drums, you'll need a sampling procedure for drums. If you get it in a 2000lb super sac, you'll need a sampling procedure for that. And of course separate inspection plans for the drum material and one for the super sac material since the same characteristic will specify different sampling procedures.
The sampling procedure will specify a sampling scheme for that container. I.e. for the super sacs with normal inspection you would specify 0-2000 = 2 g sample. 2001-4000 - 4 g sample. 4001-6000 = 6 g. etc. etc..
When the sample size for the ID characteristic is figured out, it will be 10g or 20 g. Whatever. It is based on the total lot size.
The sample drawing procedure will take the sample size of 20 g now, and apply that to the pooled sample. That will be divided by the primary samples, (P2 = 10) for a set of 10 primary samples of 2 g each.
A second alternative would be to create the inspection plan in the alternative UOM. Say super sacs. You receive in 10. You could create a large sampling scheme for this where a lot size of 1 = 2 g. 2 = 4 g, 3 = 6 g, etc... While it would be a large sampling scheme, you'd only need one sampling procedure and one sampling scheme. The inspection plan will see a BUOM of 20,000Kg but convert that to 10 super sacs. The sampling procedure would see an inspection lot qty of 10 super sacs. The sampling scheme calcualtes a sample size of 20 for a lot size of 10. The sample size is applied to the pooled sample and then distributed to the 10 primary samples.
This should work for all container types. If the plan was in drums, 20,000 kgs might calcuate out to 30 drums. The sampling procedure looks up 30 to find that is 60 and returns a sample size of 60g. That is applied to the pooled sample and divided amoung the primary samples, (P2 = 30), for 2 g per primary sample.

How to transfer iphoto and itunes libraries from NAS back to MacBook Pro

I recently upgraded my MBP hard drive, and decided I'd like to move my iphoto and itunes libraries back to my local drive from my Synology NAS. I thought this would be easily achieved by copying the libraries from the NAS and pasting them in the desired locations in the MBP, as I did to get them to the NAS in the first place. This will not work.
First off, when I try a simple copy and paste through finder, the transfer gets about half way through and suddenly stops with "You can't copy "iPhoto Library" because it has the same name as another item in the destination volume, and that volume doesn't distinguish between upper- and lowercase letters in filenames".
This occurs even if there is no Iphoto directory currently on the MBP.
I contacted Synology, and they attempted to have me use a windows transfer protocol to transfer the libraries, but when transferring this way I am stopped half way through with an "Error -8084" code.
I am aware that the MBP is formatted with MAC OS Extended (Journaled), and that the NAS is formatted differently, but there must be some way to get this back.
My itunes library contains all my family's ipad, and iphone back ups, in addition to around 35 gb of music. Additionally, I don't want to lose Event info in Iphoto.
Please help!
Thank you

Hi,
First thing U can't do this way in java. If U are executing this sort of database query, after retriving all the values, put inside Haahtable or HashMap as the application required and return it.
Otherwise execute this query at the same place where u r printing values in jsp page insted of writing it inside seperate method..It will work.
If still it's not workimg, please let me know.

R12: how to show ap invoices and ar transactions from same party id

Is it possible to see the open ap invoices and open ar transactions from the same party id
in one screen or report?

I'm sorry your posts keep getting locked despite you asking not to have them locked. To avoid this in the future, if you accidentally post in the wrong forum, edit the post in the wrong forum to remove the content, and change the titlte to please ignore or something similar.
This is the response I made on your post in the SQL PL/SQL forum since I will not be able to respond on that one.
The exists operator looks for a record that matches the criteria you give it. If it finds a record, it returns true, if not it returns false. So, when you say:
exists (select 1 from ap_invoice_lines_all
        where invoice_id = i.invoice_id and
              po_header_id is null)It is really asking is there a record in ap_invoice_lines_all where invoice_id = 100 and po_header_id is null. Since there is such a record, the exists return true and the record from ap_invoices_all is returned.
I'm not sure whether your last query should be against ap_invoices_all or ap_invoice_lines_all, and i'm also not entirely sure what result you actually want. If you want to find records in ap_invoices_all where all of the lines have a non-null po_header_id, then you need to reverse your logic, something like:
select *
from ap_invoices_all i
where invoice_num = '1010' and
      not exists (select 1
                  from ap_invoice_lines_all
                  where invoice_id = i.invoice_id and
                        po_header_id is null)That will show only invoices where all of the lines have po_header_id populated. Just change the is null to is not null to get invoices where no lines have po_header_id populated.
If you are looking for something else, try again to explain what you want, with some sample data for the two tables, and your expected results from that sample data. The sample data should preferabble be in the form of create table ind insert statements.

How do I record AND monitor at the same time?

I'm having trouble while trying to record from my XLR connected microphone. I have the mic going through a USB preamp and my speakers are outputting directly through my Power Mac. I cannot seem to be able to record at the same time I monitor. I can't playback my recordings without first changing the audio setting to Built in Audio from Mobile Preamp. I swear I could do this with Logic 7. Can't I have the monitor be going through the computer and the input going through my preamp at the same time? Thanks!
Appi

Logic can see two or more audio interfaces at once, but it has to be set up in the Audio midi set up program on your mac, as an aggregate device using your built in audio and your USB device. Then you can choose the aggregate device in your Logic>preferences>audio>driver. After you choose it, you should be able to access all inputs and outputs at once

Creating View based on Current and previous data from same table

I am trying to create a view based on a table called “my_companies”. The table has following columns: “company_id”, “start_date”, “product_type_code”, “partner_id”
The main purpose of this view is to obtain previous company_id’s associated with a particular “partner_id“and “product_type_code”. So basically, I’m looking to create an extra column, say “prev_company_id” in the view along with all the other columns. The “previous” data can be obtained depending on the “start_date”. I’m not able to write a query successfully to do this.
Can anyone help? Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Whenver you have a question, it helps to post:
(1) The version of Oracle (and any other relevant software) you're using
(2) A little sample data (just enough to show what the problem is) from all the relevant tables
(3) The results you want from that data
(4) Your best attempt so far
Executable SQL statements (like "CREATE TABLE AS ..." or "INSERT ..." statements) are best for (2).
Formatted tabular output is okay for (3). Type before and after the tabular text, to preserve spacing. The sample results should include any special cases that you foresee, such as one company having many previous companies, or vice-versa.
It sounds like might need a +self-join+, where you have two copies of the same table, as if the current companies were in one table and the previous companies were in another, even though they are all actually in the same table.

JFM recording and streaming at the same time

Hello Everyone,
I was hoping someone could help me with using a webcam device for sending and recording at the same time.
At this moment I'm only able to record. I tried to make another processor, and put the input of the streaming processor
to the one that is recording, but problem is the streaming processor outputs not a streaming format. If I could stream
with RTP I could embed a player in a website and view from there, while recording at the same time.
Could somebody explain to me what do to here, or provide me a snippet of code, I really need this to work.
I created this code, but this only records.

          } catch (Exception exception) {
               System.out.println("error!");
          System.out.println("finished");
