Request for USB and/or CF card reader

As a serious photographer, I would like to see USB ports added to the iPad. The size is perfect for traveling; I'd love to replace the laptop with an iPad. My camera uses Compact Flash cards, so at the least, if adding USB ports is not part of the plan, having a CF card reader for the iPad will be essential for some of us.
My ideal: a way to charge AND download images at the same time. Some days I take quite a few images.

I agree with you, but I doubt that Apple will add much of what we like.
However, you can attach a compact flash reader via the camera connection kit USB dongle and the photo app will import from a CF card in the reader.
When attached to a computer the imported photos on the iPad will appear as an import source in photo app. like Lightroom, Bridge, Aperture etc.
I have successfully imported from my Nikon d3 & d200 compact flash to the iPad and then imported them into Lightroom and Bridge when the iPad was connected.
It handles raw, and raw+jpg and preserves them at full resolution
What's missing in my mind is:
Simple ability to manipulate/collect/organize the images.
Rename
Add Metadata
Backup to external drive(s).
Beyond that I'm willing to wait until I get back to a computer.
When in the filed with my MacBook I:
Upload the images, delete obvious duds, rename them and add metadata.
Then back up to 2 external drives.
Put CF cards back in Camera and format and start shooting again.

  • Security: Read-only for USB and FireWire

    Is there a way to secure the external data ports on a Mac so you can't write to a USB and/or FireWire drive? Obviously we need the SATA / InternalHD to be regular read/write. I've swapped out the optical drive so it is a read-only device, but it would be nice to have a solution that prevents writing to optical media as well.

    I found two links that provide a solution.
    http://images.apple.com/server/macosx/docs/TigerSecurity_Config021507.pdf
    http://images.apple.com/server/macosx/docs/LeopardSecurity_Config20080530.pdf
    I can't find the page(s) that reference these PDFs, so you have to download them directly.
    Within the two documents are information about "removing support for mass storage devices" by trashing certain files (IOUSBMassStorageClass.kext for USB and IOFireWireSerialBusProtocolTransport.kext for FireWire).
    One caveat seems to be that these files may be restored through system updates, so you need to write a login script (script provided in Leopard PDF) to ensure they are removed or simply be aware of the issue when installing system updates.

  • Does Java Card require a USB CCID-compliant smart card reader?

    Hi experts,
    Does Java Card require a USB CCID-compliant smart card reader? I'm currently working with PC/SC usb token and it requires usb CCID-compliant smart card reader, which seems very inconvenient for my clients and I'm wondering if Java Card has the same issue? (I'm thinking about switching the project to Java Card)
    Any help will be much appreciated!
    Z.Zen

    Hi,
    You will still need to install drivers for some card readers to function correctly. I know some work out of the box on Windows and OS X (10.5+ at least) ships with the pcsclite CCID driver from the Muscle card project. When I view my reader in Windows device manager the Manufacturer is "USB CCID Compliant".
    The only real difference between what you are doing with the USB CCID token and Java Card is that the card and reader are separate in the Java Card option where as the USB token has the reader and chip in one package.
    Cheers,

  • How to enable password request for restart and shutdown?

    Hi,
    I'm neither a Linux nor an Arch Linux newbie, but inexperienced regarding this particular issue.
    I want to enable password request for restart and shutdown and want to know if I'm mistaken, because trial and error might become to time-consuming while working on a project.
    I read https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Al … o_shutdown.
    $ ls -hAl /usr/bin/shutdown
    lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 9 Apr 22 03:02 /usr/bin/shutdown -> systemctl
    If I try to run $ shutdown -hP 28 or $ shutdown -c nothings happens, I need to run $ sudo shutdown -hP 28 and $ sudo shutdown -c and type a password. That's the way I want it.
    If I e.g. run $ shutdown -r now no password is needed. I want to disable this. It should behave the same way as shutdown -hP/-c behave. I want to type
    $ sudo shutdown -r now or $ sudo systemctl reboot etc. and then the password should be required.
    $ sudo grep -vn "#" /etc/sudoers | grep [[:blank:]]
    72:root ALL=(ALL) ALL
    73:rocketmouse ALL=(ALL) ALL
    The user "rocketmouse" should have all permissions after typing a password, but not without typing the password.
    IIUC what's written at https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Polkit, I need to edit
    $ pkaction | grep login
    org.freedesktop.accounts.set-login-option
    org.freedesktop.login1.attach-device

    IOW I need to replace every yes and no etc. with auth_admin in $ grep -v lang /usr/share/polkit-1/actions/org.freedesktop.login1.policy.
    Am I mistaken?

    You'll need to create a rules file which uses javascript.

    // /etc/polkit-1/rules.d/10-admin-shutdown-reboot.rules
    polkit.addRule(function(action, subject) {

  • Requesting for Vehicle, and

    HI,
      How can map to the Transpotation Process as well  Vehicle information,
         My company process is own manufacturing and  internal transpotation arrangement, when delivery is required, thay are making delivery document and as well raise for the request arrange vehicle, then after making shipment document , when arrange vehicle maintain vehicle meter reading and time of going outside and time of comeing inside these details maintained here. and any problem of vehicle also maintained.
        where can i map of this process , please anybody help to me
    Regards,
    Kishore.

    I have a really hard time understanding that requirement.... in none of our projects has this come up so far. What's the reasoning behind that?
    I mean, if you do that, a can't request for a, and b can't request for b, but a can request for b, and b for a, right?
    So, the only reasoning behind that would be some kind of SoD separation between requester and user (which serves no real purpose, does it??).
    If you want to limit the people that can request at all to a certain group, set authetication source to UME and give only those users a UME account.
    Or, if you want SoD, set "approve/reject own request" to "no" in end user personalization, so the approver can not be the same persoin as the requester.
    If none of these suit you, maybe you can explain in a bit more detail what you're trying to achieve.
    Frank.

  • "Enable for Commenting and Analysis in Adobe Reader

    Hi all,
    Adobe Acrobat Pro Extended has a feature to enable measurements and comments in a file when that file is then subsequently opened in Reader.
    It is in Acrobat Pro Extended under Comments -> Enable for Commenting and Analysis in Adobe Reader
    My question is, if I convert large batches of files to PDF, how can I enable measurements and comments for Adobe Reader without opening each file and selecting that option from Adobe Acrobat Pro Extended?
    Thanks for any info,
    Jesse Perry

    Try the Batch Process feature in Acrobat Pro Extended. You'll still have to do it after the files are converted, but it may keep you from having to set that feature one PDF at a time. Go to Advanced > Document Processing > Batch Processing...
    This 'might' be able to do what you need.

  • Batch file enable for commenting and analysis in Adobe Reader

    I have over 18000 GeoPDFs created and want to enable for commenting and analysis in Adobe Reader.  Can anyone step me through how to set this up in Adobe LiveCycle?

    To enable the Commenting in Adobe Reader you can either use Acrobat or LiveCycle Reader Extentions.
    But, in Acrobat (even in Acrobat X) you cannot enable those Usage Rights via batch.
    This means you will have to do this for each file separately.
    Attention: The commenting will only be enabled for static forms (PDF-forms), not for dynamic forms (XFA-forms)!
    Possible the LiveCycle Reader Extentions can do that, but this product is very, very expensive and I don't have it.

  • Recommendations for USB and FireWire Card

    Hi -

    The Sonnet PCI USB Express cards have this problem too - for the record. Sonnet know about the MacPro not waking with it installed, as do Apple.

  • Print automatically a request for quotation and purchase order

    hI,
    I create a new message ZNEU and I link a new form.
    I want the system creates automatically the message ZNEU when I save my request for quotation.
    In transaction NACE, I specify the output type ZNEU
    My Access sequence is 0001   DocType/PurchOrg/Vendor
    I specify a procedure RMBEA1 Purchasing RFQ
    Then I put in step 10 the condition type ZNEU and a requirement 101
    I just copy the message NEU in ZNEU.
    And in condition record ( tcode MN02)  I create the output type with combinaison purchasing output determintation document type.
    With all these datas I haven't anything when I save the RFQ?
    I have the same problem with purchase order.
    Anybody have an idea?
    Thanks a lot for your help
    Kari

    Hi,
    For RFQ create outut condition using MN01 transaction give your output tpe ZNEU and choose the option doc type as AN and give your purchase group.give transmission medium 1 and time 4.In communication method give printer name and tick print immediately and save.Then while creating RFQ for that purchase group message will come automatically.
    For PO create output condition using MN04 transaction and document type is EF.Repeat the same like RFQ.
    Hope it will solve your issue.

  • Search for a driver: Ricoh Multi Card Reader for Windows 8 - for my T61 (6463) -

    Hi!
    I`m searching for a Windows 8-Driver for my T61 (6463).
    I have a Ricoh Multi Card Reader inside and I can`t find a driver for this one.
    Can anybody help me?
    Thank you,
    Heiko
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Hello,
    Try downloading the following driver:
    Name:  Ricoh Multi Card Reader Driver for Windows Vista, XP
    Version:  3.54.02
    Date:  06 Mar 2008
    URL:  http://support.lenovo.com/en_US/detail.page?LegacyDocID=migr-68053
    The drivers will extract to a directory named "C:\DRIVERS\WIN\4IN1\", if I recall correctly.  Once extracted, run Device Manager (filename: DEVMGMT.MSC), go to the entry where the unrecognized card reader is located, and perform an update, using the "Have Disk" option and pointing it to the directory in which the drivers were extracted.
    I do not recall if a reboot is required, but in any case I would recommend doing one, at which point you should then be able to see the card reader from Windows 8.
