Remember, and store Processed files Q's ???

I've got "Process in Background" checked, so that while I'm working on my menus, it's "Ticking away"
This is great, storing the rendered Mpeg files in the dvdproj package.
However... EVERY time I want to burn a new DVD of my work, I have to wait for it to "Rendering Menu Video Asset", "Process Slideshows", and "Process Movies, Encode Audio / Play Movie", before it starts burning my second DVD.
The computer already "Did this work" rendering everything for the first one, and I can't find a Preference to "Store all rendering to the project package"
If i know I want to make several coppies, is it in my best interedt to select "Make Image"
Then, to make DVD's what do I mount the image with to burn ?? Disk Utillity ? or is it a special kind of image I have to mount with iDVD to burn ??

I turned off background processing and I have found that my system actually works better. The DVD burns cleanly without sync problems or other flaky issues, and iDVD does not go through the whole menu of processes after the first disk.

HT201250 Can I back up with time machine AND store additional files on the same external drive?

I just bought an external drive to move and archive some files off my iMac to free up some space. I'm being asked if I want to use the drive to back up files with Time Machine. Can I use this drive to do both? (Back up with TM AND store other files?
Your input is appreciated.

Technically you can but it is not a very good idea at all. The reason it is a flawed idea is if the HD fails (not really if but when) you will have defeated the whole idea of backup. A failure means you will lose the data files you stored on it and it's backup! A good backup plan has at least 2 forms of backup because backups can fail too. I would strongly recommend getting at least one additional external HD and use it for storing the data files you wanted off the internal HD and use the second for a Time Machine backup drive.
Personally I have 3 external HD's attached to my computer. Disk 1 is my Time Machine backup, Disk 2 is a Bootable Clone of my internal HD and Disk 3 stores my music, photography and movie libraries.
Please read these articles, they will discuss different backup strategies and I think you will see that each suggest redundant backups.

Export data in CSV and store the file in local drive

Hi,
Here is the requirements.
Fetch the values from table (around 60000 records), and export them into CSV file and store the file in local drive.
I have written servlet to to this and it is working fine expect saving the file in local drive. At the moment, it is asking to save as in local drive. i want to save the file automatically in particular path (/var/www/files/). Below is the code.
String file = "CandidatesDetails" + sd + ".csv";
                    queryString = "select * from candidate where candidate.status='A'";

          tryAt the moment, when i run http://localhost:8080/project/CandidatesDetail, it will ask me to save the file somewhere. I should manually mention the path to save the file. what i want is, it should automatically save it in the location C:\projects\files\.
thanks.

Best way to upload and store image file using struts

Hello there,
I'm having two choices for uploading image files(not huge image files) using struts a) to store the image in application server's directory
b) to store the image files as BLOB in database.
Although each of the image files have to be associated with unique ID to identify the image for re-display.
Which is the best option. application server's directory or database
josh

I think storing it in the application server directory would probably allow for faster access, is easier to code, and doesn't depend on db connectivity.
As for the unique id, you could probably use the File.createTemporaryFile method--it returns a unique id for every file in a directory, given a prefix & suffix. You just have to remember to change the extension from a .tmp to the image format you're using.
Anyway, that's my 2 cents.

Time Capsule- Can i use it for Time Machine and store media files?

Hi,
I'm very new to Time Capsule (have a 1TB TC), but have been using Time Machine to back up my MacBook Pro onto an external HD for a while now.
Here's my question. is it possible to use the Time Machine capabilities of Time Capsule while also using it to store music and picture files. Ideally I'd like to be able to have my iTunes and iPhoto library available on the Time Capsule. that way it could be centralized and readable from a few Macs in the house.
Thanks!

When you say the info on it won't be backed up. What do you mean "the info on it"? Do you just mean the mp3, AAC ...etc files aren't backed up because they live on the TC only?
I just want to make sure cause I did the same thing but I want to make sure I wont lose all my music and photos.
If the only place you have these music and photo files is on the TC HDD, then if the TC HDD fails, you lose all those files. Here's another option. TC has an archive feature. That means you can, via AirPort Utility -> Disks, use the Archive feature to clone the TC HDD onto a USB HDD attached to the USB port of TC. It's not like TM, making incremental backups. You have to manually archive it, but it is an alternative.
My photos remain on my iMac internal HDD. That means they are backed up by TM onto the TC HDD. If my iMac internal HDD fails, I still have the TM backups. I also backup yearly photos to DVDs. Photos are irreplaceble, you know.

Convert jpg image to array of integers and store in file

For a project that I am working on I need to be able to take the black and white jpg images that I am using and convert each pixel into either a -1 or +1 according to if the pixel color is white or black. Then, once I have an array of those values, I need to store the array to a file. Can this be done? Can PixelGrabber accomplish this task? Thanks in advance!
Keith Pemberton

Yes
PixelGrabber pg = new PixelGrabber(myImage, 0, 0, width, height, pixels, 0, width);

ITunes startup and store issues "file already exists"

Hi there,
I got a problem with iTunes starting up and i cant solve it with the suggestions available in the handbooks or discussion forums.
A) When i start up itunes i get an error message saying "the file already exists".
I can then browse my music and shop as usual.
B) When i try to buy something in the store a similar error message pops up, "File already existent"
What i tried so far:
- Deinstalled itunes and all other Apple producs + associated files and folders.
- System checkup incl. viruses and various cleanups
Operating System is Windows 7.
My Devices work on other machines without any problems.
Anyone has a solution for what file might be existent or where else the problem can be?
Thanks so much!

Hello Cuprastar,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities!
It sounds like these error messages are indicating there could be a problem with the iTunes library itself.
I would recommend recreating the iTunes library with the help of this article:
iTunes: How to re-create your iTunes library and playlists
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1451
When you do this, iTunes will offer to scan for media files, and you should let it perform the scan.
Take care,
Sterling

Which 'download and instal process' files to trash?

I am not clear about what these files actually are and whether I can dump them - after installing the apps associated with them -
.bin
.smi
.dmg.gz
.smi
.smi.hqx - with printer download
.sit
Also - I dumped the msn messenger .dmg (thinking I could dump all .dmg files) and of course I couldn't open messenger. Why was this?
Any pointers please will be appreciated.
Thanks
Gordon

Hi gordon,
all these files are compressed archives for applications and/or files. StuffIt Expander by default deletes them after it expanded them.
dmg-files are a disk images. It is also used as a "transport-container" for applications but can also be used as backup. In order to use a disk image simply double-click it and a hard disk icon will appear on your desktop. Copy it's contents to your hard disk and after that you can delete the disk image.

How to store pictures/files on icloud but delete off of ipad

Hi,
Does anyone know how to upload their files/pics/vids to iCloud while also being able to delete them off of my local iPad? My iPad is running out of space and I thought I could upload and store these files on the cloud while removing locally.
Thanks,
Dan

You can't do this with iCloud; iCloud is designed to keep your data synced across all your devices and to back up your device, not to serve as a way to expand the storage of your device. To do this, import your photos and videos to your computer and delete them from your camera roll, as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083.

Itunes processing file

Itunes is spending a long time (minute or two) "processing file" after download. This has been raised on the itunes for Windows forum without resolution.
Some people have had downloads aborted, I haven't been just taking a while.
Would be good if Apple were able to address this.
Ive turned off simultaneous download and also turned off Genius.
The incentive for Apple should be that Amazon is very quick.
Bill

I'm also having this problem though for me, I'm waiting for more than an hour for this to finish and STILL no official progress. I don't know how long this problem has been going on. I downloaded 2 tracks, each that were over an hour long (129 MB) and the "processing file" stage has 100%CPU utilization. I tried contacting support and they simply re-add it to my account so I can try again. It really doesn't solve anything if you can't process the file though.
For me, I'll stop using iTunes until this is fixed. I'm glad to hear I'm not the only person with this complaint.
Some other users have said removing verizon v-cast solved their problem, but I don't have that installed.
I'm running iTunes version 8.2.0.23
Any suggestions?

Download and store file for later processing

Hi
Is this possible without using the FileConnection API:
1. Download an archive (XML-File with images) from a webserver and store it into RMS
2. Read the archive later and open it
3. Store the contents of the archive into RMS and delete the archive
4. Process the XML with a parser
5. I am lucky
Kind regards
Mic.

Hi
I must confess that I don't see the utility of the FileConnection API in your situation. When you speak of RMS then the JSR 75 has no use at all. Using RMS you provide a 'universal' solution to storing data in any Java enabled mobile phone.
So, you would need knowledge of: HTTP communication (http://java.sun.com/developer/J2METechTips/2001/tt0820.html), RMS (http://developers.sun.com/techtopics/mobility/midp/articles/persist/) and XML parsing (http://developers.sun.com/techtopics/mobility/midp/articles/parsingxml/)

1) Next time use the CODE tags. this is way too much unreadable crap.
2) The problem is your String[][] data.... the only place I see you do anything approching initializing it is
data = new String[numLines][];I think you want to do this..
data = new String[numLines][3];anyway that's why it's blowing up on the line
data[row][col]=st.nextToken();

I was downloading updates for ipod touch 2nd gen and twice when I was to processing files stage it clicked off. There was no message on whether it was done or what I was to do next. I needed to reset the ipod. Now what do I do?

I was downloading updates for Ipod touch 2nd gen and when the process was to the processing files point the screen changed and I wasn't given any idea as to whether the process was complete or not and if it was what was to be done next. I needed to reset the Ipod and now I am wondering what to do . Spend another Hour downloading and whatever amount on processing files and end up where I am now . Whats the next step in finding out what to do? This was the second attempt to do this with the first try happening the same except I am not sure how long the processing files part was.. Any suggestions as to what to try will be greatly appreciated.. Thanks

Likely a batter problem since high temperatures destroy a battery. I wold make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store to see what they say. It is free except for your time.

Download and store files directly to TimeCapsule?

Hi,
I'm wondering is there a way to save downloaded files direct to the TimeCapsule. Normaly after download files to my Mac, I have to copy and store them in TC. TC. Its time consuming process.
Another is that safe when store files in Time Capsule?
Thank for support!

One should have an exclusive drive or partition for backup separate from one used just for storage. This assures a lower likelihood of damaging one or the other.
If it were possible to partition a TC, then you could use one volume for backup and the other for storage, but even that would risk the loss of both were the drive to fail.

Remember, and store Processed files Q's ???
