Save an iPad backup for use later?

HI folks. I was wondering if there was a way to backup my iPad, then save it somewhere else so I can use it later if I want to go back to my iPad in it's currrent state without having to worry about new backups overwriting this specific backup. Possible? Thanks.

Hi Rider
Yes you should be do that by finding the back-up file and saving it elsewhere. and then come back in and replace your unwanted back-up. Then you restore to the desired back-up.

I have never done that but it makes sense.
BTW, icloud does daily back-ups and keeps three back-ups for you to choose from.

The device backups and iTunes library should be unaffected by uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes.

Save Data in Report to Use later

I have several names to report I need to combine data from several records of the same type with different codes. Not all names have the same codes. I want to report the data on one line. Is there a way to save date to be used later in the report?
For Example:
Name Code Start Date Code Transfer Date Code Promote Date
Sue
SD
01/15/2000
TD
01/15/2005
Mitch
SD
01/15/2004
Sam
SD
01/15/2003
PD
01/15/2006

Using the three records above I want the report to print (I'm using the Name Group Footer):
Name
Start Date
Transfer Date
Promote Date
Sue
01/15/2000
01/15/2005
Mitch
01/15/2004

What products are available to connect a electric guitar to a IPAD 4 for use with garage band???

what products are availabe to connect an ipad 4 with electric guitar for use with garage band???

I know this will sound a bit snarky but the best source for information is an Internet search. Typing in "connect guitar to iPad" produced pages of products. This one looked interesting to me...

I don't recall if the iPad 4 has the new lightning connector or not. If it does you'll probably need a 30pin-to-lightening adapter.

Who knows good iPad apps for using in school?

Hey,
Soon I'm gonna use my iPad in school. But I don't know good apps for using in school.
Specially for using my iPad a notebook.
I'm looking for an app that can write and draw. I also want to keep my notes organized.
Who has good suggestions?
Thanks in advance,
Thijs
PS. Sorry for my bad English

I would recommend Evernote, a cloud storage app that allows you to organize notes and access them anywhere, over the built-in Notes. For handwriting drawing, I use Notability and email my notes directly from there to my Evernote account; Penultimate is (in my opinion) not as good a writing app, but works better with Evernote. Paper is another good writing app. If you want handwriting recognition, check out Writepad (also works well with Evernote).

Created effect on clip in timeline. Want to save it for use later..

     I realize I can't drag a clip from the Timeline into the Event Library. So frustrating. So how do I go about setting that clip aside with the effects I have applied so I can use it later in various places in my timeline. I don't want it in the timeline now. I want to use it later with the effects I have created, or is that not possible?

   I can't seem to do any of that in the event library. As far as I can tell, I can only add effects to clips in the timeline. I have the clip in the timeline and I have created effects. Now I want to remove it from the timeline and not lose the time I have spent creating those effects. I don't want it cluttering up my timeline and I don't want to have to redo all the effects. Is there no way to do this? I'm assuming not. I did find that I could create another event and copy/paste a clip into the event and "save" for later use that way, which seems a really lousy kludge.
   If I'm correct that there is no way to save a clip from the timeline for later use, do you think this is just a temporary failing or just part of the way FCPx will always work. I am continuing to explore how FCPX deals with editing and playing with unimportant footage and keep hitting walls like this. I try to figure out if it's just a paradigm shift I need to make but things like this and the inability to copy/paste attributes and such just make me crazy. I'm working hard to move from the unsupported FCPStudio and I know that Premiere will have its own "make me crazy" issues but these limitations as compared to FCP Studio are really frustrating and I just can't tell when I run into problems that will be addressed in a .X release vs problems that are simply "how it's always going to work in FCPX".

I would like the ability to save a thumbnail preview for use by the OS on image export.

Hello,
I have been using Lightroom for about three years and one of the many features I would like to see is the ability to save a thumbnail for the image while exporting an image. This is an option available in other leading software, and also happens when you save an image in Photoshop. It isn't a huge issue when using a Mac because you have the option for the finder to force an image preview. It is however an issue when your client uses Windows since the OS doesn't allow the user to force a thumbnail preview.
The client is king, especially with the economy and market the way that it is. If the client wants thumbnails on their images in their OS, the photographer needs to be able to deliver. I don't expect myself or any other photographer to have to open files in Photoshop and save them to force a thumbnail for the image.
This software is in no way as expensive as Photoshop and it does have amazing features, but it is also not cheap and is intended for working professionals.

Your original links were ok, two JPGs and one PNG. BTW,the resizing wasn't necessary because the warning about it is only for viewing the photo in the message. You can always click on the photo and see the full-sized version, as long as it doesn't exceed the filesize limit, of course.
On my Windows 7, both JPGs show a Windows Picture Viewer program icon when set to the default settings, and both JPGs show a thumbnail icon when the icon-size is increased. This is a function of Windows, not the contents of the files, as far as I can tell.
No thumbnail Icons using the default view:
Thumbnail icons when switching to the next larger sized icons:
On the Mac the two images act differently, but you're asking for Mac-specific things to occur, and Adobe may choose to not do it based on it not being different on Windows.
For what Windows scenario does the PS-saved JPG show a thumbnail-icon instead of a program-icon when the LR-saved one shows only the program icon. I'm not asking about the Mac where your screenshot shows the difference, I'm asking about Windows. Is it only when you e-mail pictures or is it on the customer's hard-drive, somehow, and what is the customer using the view the images?

How to store values in session variables for use later

I am trying to read user input from a form, lookup some values from a database,
store the combined data into session to retrieve later in the subsequent pages
in a pageflow application. Could someone guide me as to how exactly to do this?
The documentation doesn't seem to be of much help.
Thanks,
Krishna K

Krishna,
     If you will be using the data within the course of the same page flow
or nested page flows then you should store the data in the page flow
itself. Simply declaring variables in the .jpf will do this. The page
flow is stored in the session for you and it is deleted when the user
exits the page flow. This is good because it keeps down session size.
     If you have data that you want to use across page flows then you will
need to store in the session or globalApp.
     Here is a link to "Using Data Binding in Page Flows" it has an example
of storing data into the session and it goes into the pros and cons of
using each data binding scope.

Norton AV suddenly blocked iPad backup for Heuristic Virus Bloodhound 115

Today Norton AV blocked the backup stage of syncing my iPad.   This has not happened before.   Norton settings havent changed.   Id have to check but there likely have bene one or two Apps updated on the ipad from the apple store.
The presumption tho has to be that its something on the iPad, rather than Norton suddenly seeing ghosts.   How do i idnetify the culprit and remove it?
All I have to go on is the roaming...\mobilesync\backup...\snapshot\.... file name
The Apple call centre was no help beyond suggesti8ng that I turn Norton off!!!!   (I hope it was just a bad day for the gentleman in question, I really hope they arent trained to say that!).
I get very nervous when things suddnely happen for no apparent reason!

Thanks, Thomas.
I agree, a false posiive is the most likely explanation.   I just try to keep security issues above the "most liely" level of confidence!
FWIW Norton scan of my "laptop" (Del XPS 1730 requires laps of steel lol) has come up clean.
At the risk of sounding like a broken record, my main concern is why this happened yesterday and not, say, last month (the last time I did a sync).   (No, I do not have auto update turned on in Norton, or anywhere else for that matter).   Its also curious that, supposedly, the number of reported occurrneces according to Norton is less than 5.
I can not think of anything on either of my machines machine that would be so unique.   Not sure I have the stamina to tackle Symantec customer service (I have a marginal preference for root canal), otherwise it would be interesting to get some follow up on the report that was logged to Symantec by the scanner.
Yes, I do have some spreadsheets shared between the devices (Excel in Windows and QuickOffice in iOS).
Good to hear this particular virus (?) cant harm the iPad; and the laptop looksc clean anyway.

Download the latest version of iTunes, then plug in your iPad.
Regardless of what OS you have you will have a photo sync option.
It may look different being windows, but it is not so dramatically different.
Here is a guide for photos, but works just as well for video:
Step A: Opening iTunes and Setting Photo Sync Up
Fire up the iTunes – Make sure that your iPad device is selected (see A1), and that you are switched to the Photos section (see A2) – finally – make sure you check “Sync Photos” Radio Button (see A3)…
Also make sure to Tick the Include Video button!
Step B: Selecting Photo Folders to Sync
You will be on the same screen – double-check that B1 is checked and move onto B2 – here you will chose folder that contains pics you want to move onto the device. Finally, for the purpose of this exercise – let’s chose “Selected Folders” as in B3 (I try to avoid “All Folders” as my photos folder has a large number of photos that would occupy pretty much all free memory space I have on my iPad)
Step C: Navigate to Photo Folder
This should be a straight forward step that you have probably completed many times before – navigate to the folder that contains photos that you want copied onto your device – the path to your folder will be something similar to C1 (emphasis on ’similar’ – but not “the same”). Once done, click C2 (“Select Folder”) as shown on the screenshot.
Step D: Excluding Folders from Sync (SYNCING)
In this step you will be able to exclude photo folders that you don’t want to see on your iPad – Verify that D1 and D2 are correct and then move to D3 where you will select what is being moved onto the iPad.
ONCE YOU ARE DONE HIT THE SYNC BUTTON (LOWER RIGHT CORNER OF THE ITUNES APPLICATION)
Step E: Open Photo App
Quick and easy – find a Photo app on your iPad (it’s likely it’ll not be at the same spot as shown here)
Step F: Opening Albums View
Once the Photo App is opened – hit the ALBUMS button (see F1):
Step G: Open Album
Once in “Albums” view of the iPhoto App – you will be able to see all albums that have been synced – the albums should contain the photos you would like to see. For the puprose of this exercise I’ll hit G1 (album with Bird Photos):
Step H: The End
Here is another guide:

Is there any possibility to upgrade the iPad mini for using more GB?

No, you cannot upgrade the amount of storage.

Save apps to phone for use with foreign sim card

I will be traveling in Europe with my unlocked iPhone5. I will be getting an Italian sim card. Are my apps on my sim card or on my phone or both? How do I make sure they are on the phone so that I can use them when I have a different sim card?

Apps are on the phone.

Layer Styles Not Saving for Use on Other Computers

I've been trying over and over for the last 6 hours to get the layer styles I save in my custom pallet to work on other computers. I mean, I have a bunch of pallets from other sources and somehow they achieved a way of being able to save theirs, now why can't I do it on mine?
So, here's the story of what I've done. I have a Text layer, I've added a list of FX to it via the Layer Styles menu. Now I save the document. I open up a new document and copy/paste the FX onto a new Text layer in another document window. It works great.
Then, I save the layer styles for use later, but no. When I do everything exactly the same way, my Layer Style that I saved has lost all it coordinates of shadows and stroke widths, bevels, you name it, it's screwed up. Now I've tried this so far on CS4 and CS5, 3 different computers. All 3 computers have different settings for how Photoshop is set up, so I know it's NOT my settings alone. Though, it keeps the colors and custom gradients how they are, everything is bonkers.
I'm ready to stop trusting in Photoshop to be there for me when I need it...or punch a hole in the wall. Whichever comes first.
I need help for this as soon as possible, for I have an assignment I need this for.
Running: Windows 7 64
Adobe Photoshop CS4 & CS5.

Seems to me you left out the most critical piece of information, that is, HOW did you save the layer style for later use ?
You might read this tutorial to see if you did it correctly.

Searching for an iPad Mini POS for Use with Square.

I am trying to set up an iPad mini for use with square POS. I would like a stand with built-in card reader and an automatic cash drawer. I do not want a receipt printer. Does anyone have any experience with this setup?

I would allow another one hour to trickle charge the battery (i.e. 4+1=5 hours)
