[searching] More powerful incremental save script

Hey dear community,
I am currently improving our pipeline and stumbled across AEs "Increment and Save". It kind of goes into the right direction but I need a more complex function. I got to know this incremental save workflow from Maya. Whenever you press ctrl+s or File/Save AE shall create a version in a subfolder called "IncrementalSaves" leaving the file name of the Scene your working on the same.
Example:
1) Artist A works on a project file called "001_sh01.aep"
2) Artist A saves the script. AE puts a copy of the file named "001_sh01_v001.aep" into the folder "IncrementalSaves"
3) Artist A keeps on working on "001_sh01.aep"
4) Artist A saves his work again. AE saves a copy of the project named "001_sh01_v002.aep" into the folder "IncrementalSaves"
5) Artist A keeps on working on "001_sh01.aep"
6) you know how it continues
The advantage is that the last version of a project file doesn't change its name, so other pipeline tools can easily link to the latest file without checking for "v###". Does anyone know such a script? Surprisingly, I didn't find anything via google or the forum search. Did no one ever needed such a script? Or does no one share it? Any help or hint is highly appreciated. Found a working python script for Nuke though.
Thanks a lot! Best regards,
Dziga

I haven't quite figured out what I think of your workflow idea. Versioning can be a challenge especially when you start versioning components of a project. I'm working on a project this morning that's gone through 6 major revisions to a logo included in about 20 delivered projects where there are a easily over a hundred uses of the logo.
It seems to me that the best option for a versioning script would be a simple UI panel that just saved a copy of your current project with an incremental name in a defined folder when you pressed the button. I'd want to tie a date to the filename rather than just a number. For versioning documents and contracts we use the a yeardaydate format so sorting alphabetically sorts by date. IOW clientNotes110909.doc would be the notes doc for today. If there were more than one version for the day I'd add a letter so the file name would be clientNotes110909a.doc then clientNotes110909b.doc. That's the way I still handle ongoing communication but I've found a much easier way to handle versioning.
I manage my projects with Gridiorn flow. It automates the process completely. I can't tell you how much time it's saved. The free version provides the best resource tracking I've ever seen and 4GB of cloud storage and the ability to sync projects between users. You can add paid services to track the time, versions, and add more storage. The enterprise version adds support for more artists at a budget just about any work for hire can easily justify. On the last collaborative project I worked on Flow provided time tracking for about 1/10 the cost of traditional bookkeeping charges just for generating the invoice. I'd check it out HERE. Updating the 20 projects mentioned above was a simple matter of changing one file then re-rendering the output. Took me about 20 minutes. Billed the client for a half a day. Before Flow I would have been at it for a couple of days and would have probably missed something.

Is the Mini more powerful than the 21.5" i5 iMac?

In need of a new home desktop for the family, media, projects, etc. I have been doing a lot of research on the i7 Mac Mini and the 2.7Ghz 21.5" iMac. All of the numbers actually suggest that the Mini is more powerful. Does anyone have any further numbers or anecdotal info that suggests otherwise. I don't want to necessarily search for a reason to spend more money but want to get the best future proofed machine while spending no more than $1400.

The only issue with the integrated graphics is if are
going to do things like advanced video editing, complex
3D development work, or heavy duty gaming. For use as
a general purpose computer or home theater computer
it will perform quite well. It will also work quite well for
any type of application that does any heavy duty number
crunching.
So, if gaming is a concern, just Google HD4000 and gaming
and what sort of performance is seen and what sort of level
of gaming you could expect to see.
As a music/video entertainment center, go with the Mini for
sure. Personally, I am using an old 2010 Mini for that purpose
and it handles any 1080p HD content I throw at it. So the new
ones should be more than adequate.

Saved Searches in Open and Save Dialogs?

Has anyone else notices that saved searches fail in Open/Save Dialogs?
I've got a date-based saved search that I've placed in the "Places" section of the sidebar — why? Because I felt like it.
However, when I access this saved search, I get incorrect results — or results from day or two ago.
I swear at one point that this functioned correctly.
Am I missing something?

[svn] 978: More changes to Ant scripts.

Revision: 978 Author: [email protected] Date: 2008-03-27 17:54:17 -0700 (Thu, 27 Mar 2008) Log Message: ----------- More changes to Ant scripts. 1. They now use the <mxmlc> task (rather than <java>) to compile SWFs such as checkinapp.swf. 2. I added comments to explain why the <taskdef> that loads <compc> and <mxmlc> from flexTasks.jar needs to be inside the <target> rather than simply in the <project>. (The reason is that our build process builds flexTasks.jar, so we can't load it until after certain targets have executed.) 3. All build.xml files within the 'frameworks' directory are now consistent about the following: a. They define FLEX_HOME. b. They load FLEX_HOME's build.properties file. c.

I just found the AppleScript documentation in /Applications/Adobe Photoshop CS5/Scripting/Documents/. But I don't think it's even accurate. Here's a very simple sample they give:
tell application "Adobe Photoshop CS5"
filter current layer of the current document using lens blur with options {class:lens blur, radius:13}
end tell
If I enter this in AppleScript Editor and try to compile it, it selects the word "current" and tells me "Expected end of line but found identifier." It doesn't even recognize "filter" as a command. If I just change that 5 to a 4, it works fine in CS4.
Here's one way to run a JavaScript file from AppleScript:
tell application "Adobe Photoshop CS5" to open file "Path:to:file.jsx"
Of course there's no way to pass any arguments this way, so that greatly limits its usefulness. But perhaps this will be helpful to some people. I'm assuming the JavaScript stuff all works fine, as that seems to be their focus these days.
The really strange thing is that certain things seem to work fine in AppleScripts that are already compiled (using CS4). But if I try to re-save those scripts with CS5 installed, I get errors.

I want a new and more powerful (non-Apple) wireless router but I still want to use my existing Time Capsule to continue with my Time Machine backups and I still need the Time Capsule's Network Attached Storage (NAS) features and capabilities

THE SHORTER STORY
My goal is to successfully use my existing Time Capsule (TC) with a new and more powerful wireless router. I need a new and more powerful wireless router in order to reach a distant Denon a/v receiver that is physically located in a master bedroom some 50 feet away from my modem. I need to provide this Denon a/v receiver with an Internet connection so that it can obtain its firmware updates and I need to connect this Denon a/v receiver to my network in order to use its AirPlay feature. I believe l still need the TC's Network Attached Storage (NAS) features because I am not sure if the new wireless router will provide me with the NAS like features / capabilities I need to share files between my two Apple laptops with OS X 10.8.2. And I know that I absolutely need my TC's seamless integration with Apple's Time Machine (TM) application in order to continue to make effortless backups of my two Apple laptops. To my knowledge nothing works with TM like Apple's TC. I also need the hard disk storage space built into the TC.
I cannot use a long wired Ethernet cable connection in this apartment and I cannot use power-line adapters. I have read that wireless range extenders and repeaters are difficult to successfully set-up and that they will reduce data speeds, especially so when incorrectly set-up. I cannot relocate my modem and/or primary base station wireless router.
In short, I want to use my TC with my new and more powerful wireless router. I need to stop using the TC to connect to the modem. However, I still need the TC for seamless TM backups. I also need to use the TC's built in hard drive for storage. And I may still need the TC's NAS capabilities to share files wirelessly between laptops because I am assuming the new wireless router will not provide NAS capabilities for OS X 10.8.2 (products like this/non-Apple products rarely seem to work with OS X 10.8.2/Macs to provide NAS features and capabilities). Finally, I want to continue to use my Apple laptop and AirPlay to wirelessly access and play my iTunes music collection stored on the TC's hard drive. I also want to continue to use my Apple laptop, AirPlay and Apple TV to wirelessly watch movies and TV shows stored on the additional external hard drive connected to the TC via USB. Can someone please advise on how to set-up my new Asus wireless router with my existing TC in such a way to accomplish all of this?
What is the best configuration or set-up to accomplish my above goals?
Thank you in advance for your assistance!!!
THE FULL STORY
I live in an apartment building where my existing Time Capsule (TC) is located in my living room and serves many purposes. Specially, my TC is at least all of the following:
(1) Wi-Fi router connected to Comcast Internet service via Motorola SB6121 cable modem - currently the TC is the Wi-Fi base station that connects to the modem and has the gateway address to the Internet. The TC now provides the DHCP service for the Wi-Fi network.
(2) Wireless router providing Internet and Wi-Fi network access to several Wi-Fi clients - two Apple laptop computers, an iPod touch, an iPad and an iPhone all connect wirelessly to the Internet via the TC.
(3) Wired Ethernet router providing Internet and Wi-Fi network access to three different devices - a Panasonic TV, LG Blu-Ray player and an Apple TV each use one of the three LAN ports on the back of the TC to gain access to the Internet.
(4) Primary base station in my attempt to extend my wireless network to a distant (located far away) Denon a/v receiver requiring a wired Ethernet connection - In addition to the TC, which is my primary base station, I am also using a second extended Wi-Fi base station (a Netgear branded product) to wirelessly extend my WiFi network to a Denon receiver located in the master bedroom and requiring a wired Ethernet connection. I cannot use a wired Ethernet connection to continuously travel from the living room to the master bedroom. The distance is too great as I cannot effectively hide the Ethernet cable in this apartment.
(5) Time Machine (TM) backup facilitator - I use my TC to wirelessly back-up two Apple laptops using Apple's Time Machine (TM) application. However, I ran out of storage space on my TC and therefore added external storage to it. Specifically, I added an external hard drive to my TC via the USB port on the back of the TC. I now use this added external hard drive connected to the TC via USB as the destination storage drive for my TM back-ups. I have partitioned the added external hard drive, and each of the several partitions all have enough storage space (e.g., each of the two partitions used by TM are sized at three times the hard drive space of each laptop, etc.). Everything works flawlessly.
(6) Network Attached Storage (NAS) - In addition to using the TC's Network Attached Storage (NAS) capabilities to wirelessly back-up two Apple laptops via TM, I also store other additional files on both (A) the hard drive built into the TC and (B) the additional external hard drive connected to the TC via USB (there are additional separate partitions on this drive for these other additional and non-TM backup files).
I use the TC's NAS feature with my Apple laptop and AirPlay to wirelessly access and play my iTunes music collection stored on the TC's hard drive. I also use my Apple laptop, AirPlay and Apple TV to wirelessly watch movies and TV shows stored on the additional external hard drive connected to the TC via USB. Again, everything works wirelessly and flawlessly. (Note: the Apple TV is connected to the network via Ethernet and a LAN port on the back of the TC).
The issue I am having is when I try to listen to music via Apple's AirPlay in the master bedroom. This master bedroom is located at a distance of two rooms away from the TC's current location in the living room, which is a distance of about 50 feet. This apartment has a long rectangular floor plan where each room is connected to the next in a straight line. In order to use AirPlay in the master bedroom I am using a second extended Wi-Fi base station (a Netgear branded product) to wirelessly extend my WiFi network to a Denon receiver located in the master bedroom and requiring a wired Ethernet connection. This additional base station connects wirelessly to the WiFi network provided by my TC and then gives my Denon receiver the wired Ethernet connection it needs to use AirPlay. I have tried moving my iTunes music directly onto my laptop's hard drive, and then I used AirPlay on this same laptop to connect to the Denon receiver. I always get a successful connection and the song plays, but the problem is that the connection inevitably drops.
I live in an apartment building and all of the many wireless routers in this building create a great deal of WiFi interference on both the 2.4 GHz and 5GHz bands. I have tried connecting the Netgear product to each the 2.4 and 5 GHz bands, but neither band can successfully maintain a wireless connection between the TC and the Netgear product. I also attempted to maintain a wireless connection to an iPod touch using the 2.4 GHz band and AirPlay on this iPod touch to play music on the Denon receiver. Again, I was able to establish a connection and successfully play music, but after a few minutes the connection dropped and the music stopped playing. I therefore have concluded that I have a poor wireless connection in the master bedroom. I can establish a connection, but it is intermittent with frequent drops. I have verified this with both laptops by working in the master bedroom for an entire day on both laptops. The Internet connection in this master bedroom proved to drop out frequently - about once an hour with the laptops. The wireless connection and the frequency of its dropout are far worse with the iPod touch and an iPhone.
I cannot relocate the TC. Also, this is an apartment and I therefore cannot extend the range of my network with Ethernet cable (I cannot drill through walls/ceilings, etc.). It is an old building with antiquated wiring and power-line adapters are not likely to function properly, nor can I spare the direct power outlet required with a power-line adapter. I simply need every outlet I can get and cannot afford to block any direct outlet.
My solution is to use a more powerful wireless router. I found the ASUS RT-AC66U Dual-Band Wireless-AC1750 Gigabit Router which will likely provide a better connection to my wireless Internet in the master bedroom than the TC. The 802.11ac band of this Asus wireless router is totally useless to me, but based on what I have read I believe this router will provide a stronger connection at greater distances then my TC. And I will be ready for 802.11ac when it becomes more widely available.
However, I still need to maintain the TC's ability to work seamlessly with TM to backup my two laptops. Also, I doubt the new Asus router will provide OS X 10.8.2 with NAS like features and capabilities. Therefore, I still would like to use the TC's NAS capabilities to share files on my network wirelessly assuming the Asus wireless router fails to provide this feature. I need a new and more powerful wireless router, but I need to maintain the TC's NAS features and seamless integration with TM. Finally, I want to continue to use my Apple laptop and AirPlay to wirelessly access and play my iTunes music collection stored on the TC's hard drive. I also want to continue to use my Apple laptop, AirPlay and Apple TV to wirelessly watch movies and TV shows stored on the additional external hard drive connected to the TC via USB. Can someone advise on how to set-up my existing TC with this new Asus wireless router in such a way to accomplish all of this?

Thanks Bob Timmons.
In regards to a Plan B, I hear ya brother. I am already on what feels like Plan Z. Getting WiFi to a far off room in an apartment building crowded with WiFi routers is a major pain.
I am basing my thoughts on the potential of a new and more powerful router reaching the far off master bedroom based on positive reviews on cnet.com, pcmag.com and pcworld.com. All 3 of these web sites have reviewed the Asus RT-AC66U 802.11AC wireless router as well as its virtual twin cousin 802.11n router. What impressed me is that all 3 sites rated this router #1 overall in terms of both range and speed (in both the 802.11n and 802.11AC flavors). They tested the router in real world scenarios where the router needed to compete with a lot of other wireless routers. One of the sites even buried this Asus router in a media room with thick walls and inside a media cabinet. This Asus router should be able to serve my 2.4 GHz band wireless clients (iPod Touch and iPhone 4) with a 2.4GHz Wireless-N band offering some 50 feet of dependable range and a 60 Mbps throughput at that range. I am hoping that works, but it's borderline for my master bedroom. My 5 GHz wireless clients (laptops) will enjoy a 5GHz Wireless-N band offering 150 feet of range and a 200 Mbps throughput at that range. I have no idea what most of that stuff means, but I did also read that Asus could reach 300 feet and I got really excited. My mileage may vary of course and I'm sure I'm making some mistakes in my interpretation of their data. However, my Winter 2009 Time Capsule was rated by cnet.com to deliver real world performance of less than that, and 802.11AC may or may not be useful to me someday. But when this Asus arrives and provides anything other than an excellent and consistent wireless signal without drops in the master bedroom it's going right back!
Your solution sounds great, but I have some questions. I'm using OS X 10.8.2 and Airport Utility (version 6.1 610.31) and on its third tab labeled "Wireless" the top option enables you to set "Network Mode" to either:
Create a wireless network
Extend a wireless network
Off
Given your advice to "Turn off the wireless on the TC," should I set Network Mode to Off? Sorry, I'm clueless in regards to how to turn off the wireless on the TC any other way. Can you provide specific steps on how to turn off the wireless on the TC? If what I wrote is correct then what should the rest of this Wireless tab look like, or perhaps it is irrelevant when wireless is off?
Next, what do you mean by "Configure the TC in Bridge Mode?" Under Airports Utility's fourth tab labeled "Network" the top option "Router Mode" allows for either:
DHCP and Nat
DHCP Only
Off (Bridge Mode)
Is your advice to Configure the TC in Bridge Mode as simple as setting Router Mode to Off (Bridge Mode)? If yes, then what should the rest of this "Network" tab look like? Anything else involved in configuring the TC in Bridge Mode or is it really as simple as setting the Router Mode to "Off (Bridge Mode)"?
How about the other tabs in Airport Utility, can they all stay as is assuming I use the same network name and password for the new Asus wireless router? Or do I need to make any other changes to the TC via Airport Utility?
Finally, in regards to your Plan B suggestion. I agree. But do you have a Plan B for me? I would greatly appreciate any alternative you could provide. Specifically, if you needed a TC's Internet connection to reach a far off corner of your home how would you do it? In the master bedroom I need both a wired Ethernet connection for the Denon a/v receiver and wireless Internet connection for the iPhone and iPod Touch.
Power-Line Adapters - High Cost, Blocks at Least One Wall Outlet and Does Not Solve the Wireless Need
I actually like exactly one power-line adapter, which is the D-Link DHP-540 PowerLine AV 500 4-Port Gigabit Switch. This D-Link power-line adapter plugs into your wall outlet with a normal sized plug (regular standard power cord much like any other electronic device) instead of all of the other recommended power-line adapters that not only use at least one wall outlet but also often block the second outlet. You cannot use a power strip with a power-line adapter which is very impractical for me. And everything about my home is strange and upside down. The wiring here is a disaster and I don't have faith in its ability to carry Internet access from the living room to the master bedroom. And this D-Link power-line adapter costs $90 each and I need at least two to make the connection to the Denon A/V receiver. So, $180 on this solution and I still don't have a dependable drop free wireless connection in the master bedroom. The Denon might get its Ethernet Internet connection from the power-line adapter, but if I want to use an iPhone 4 or iPod Touch to stream AirPlay music to the Denon wirelessly (Pandora/iTunes, etc.) from the master bedroom the wireless connection will not be stable in there and I've already spent $190 on just the two power-line adapters needed.
Extenders / Repeaters / Wirelessly Extending the Wireless Network
I have also read great things about the Amped Wireless High Power Wireless-N 600mW Gigabit Dual Band Range Extender (Repeater) SR20000G and the My Net Wi-Fi Range Extender. The former is very powerful and the latter is easier to install. Both cost about $150 ish so similar to a new Asus router. However, everything I read about Range Extenders points to them not being very effective for a far off corner of your house wherein it's apparently hard to place the range extender in the sweet spot where it both gets a strong enough signal to actually effectively extend the wireless signal and otherwise does not reduce network throughput speeds to unacceptable speeds.
Creating a Roaming Network By Hard Wiring with Ethernet Cable - Wife Would Say, "**** No!"
Even Apple seems to warn against wirelessly extending your network (see: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4145#) and otherwise strongly recommends a roaming network where Ethernet cable is used to connect two wireless base stations. However, I am in an apartment where stringing together two wireless base stations with Ethernet cable would have an extremely low wife acceptance factor (WAF). I cannot (both contractually and from a skill prospective) hide Ethernet wire in the walls or ceiling. And having visible Ethernet cable running from room-to-room would be unacceptable, especially to the wife.
So what is left? Do you have a Plan B for me? Thanks in advance for your help!

How come although iPads are getting more powerful, the iOS apps from apple are so mediocre and just not that great? We spend all this money for the latest ipad and all we get is these $5 video and music apps from apple. Why create the iOS platform and only offer so so apps like IMovie and GarageBand ? While other developers are offering much better apps like pinnacle studio for video, Cubasis and Auria for music production, apple has not showed much growth in terms of innovation. While there's nothing wrong with making an app like GarageBand where "anyone " can make a song, how about something for real musicians or an app not so basic as it get for video editing? After spending 0ver $700 on an ipad I'd be willing to spend more than $5 for a better video or audio app.

First, try a system reset although I can't give you any confidence. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. It could take well over an hour! Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod. As before, say "yes." Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time. If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device. Corrective action is simple - choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.

Search more than one location at a time?

Hello,
I spend a lot of my time searching for files in our studio (I maintain the archives, backups, file systems, etc.) and I have to search across a number of locations (a number of local drives, specific locations/folders on various servers, etc.). Right now all our machines in the studio are on Tiger and I'm considering upgrading to 10.5, but the one major roadblock I've come across thus far is the ability to search various locations in 10.5. In 10.4 I was able to select multiple locations (local machine, specific folders on file and archive servers, etc.) all at once to find what I need. In 10.5 I've been unable to find a way to search more than one location at a time. Am I missing something, or has Apple removed the ability to search like this? This would be a serious roadblock for me as it would mean each search I do would have to be done 2-5 times, depending on what I'm looking for and where it could be found. I've even tried created a "search" folder which contains alias folders to all the places I'd normally search, but this didn't work.
If anyone has any advice on how I could possible do this, it would be greatly appreciated!
Regards,
Kristin.

Yea, I understand how to search in 10.5 (either using the magnify glass in top right, or command-F) but what I'm trying to figure out is how to search "This Mac" AND a folder on a server at the same time. In 10.4 you could just click on the places you wanted to search, but in 10.5 this option is gone. When you search "This Mac" (no matter how you customize your search), it only searches the Mac your on and mounted drives via USB and FireWire. It doesn't search other networked computers and servers and you have no option to search a specific folder on a networked computer or server unless you actually navigate to that folder and run the search (at which point you're only searching that folder and no longer also searching the "This Mac").
You can customize a lot of things, but what feature that's lacking in the 10.5 searching is the ability to search specific/various locations across a network.
In the studio it would be specific the computer I'm working on (a Mac Pro [not Macbook Pro]) and it's connected to 20 other Macs (G5 towers, Intel iMacs and Mac Pros) and two servers (Xserves). I only need to search specific locations on these systems, which you can't seem to do in 10.5. In fact, I haven't even found a way to search all the computers on the network, let alone specific locations on these computers on the network, all at once.
I've been trying to figure this out all weekend (at home) via the following setup:
- Intel iMac
- External FireWire drive mounted on Intel iMac
- G4 Server "connected" via Intel iMac
In each of these locations I've placed the following folders:
#1 - FIND THIS FILE - IMAC DESKTOP (on iMac desktop)
#2 - FIND THIS FILE - FW HD (on external FW drive mounted to iMac)
#3 - FIND THIS FILE - G4 DESKTOP (on G4 Server desktop connected to iMac)
When I run the search, if I select "This Mac" it finds both folders #1 & #2, but NOT #3.
The only way I can get the search to find #3 is to navigate via Finder to the G4 and run a search. But, now it's only searching the G4 Server and thus only find #3 and NOT #1 or #2.
I can either search "This Mac" (and mounted drives) OR the G4 Server, but not both.
At this point I have tried everything I can to get this to work, but nothing. I believe there is NO WAY to search various locations (especially various specific locations) across the network and that Apple has removed this ability in 10.5. I would LOVE if someone could prove me wrong!?

How to switch off incremental save

Hello,
I am facing a similar problem as described in
http://forums.adobe.com/message/3881828#3881828
I have a very dynamic interactiv form with a workflow - sending one PDF to 6 e-mailUsers and I'm facing the problem that the size of the PDF grows.
After I sent it to the first user the file has around 144KB.
I use a trusted "save as" function and e-mail the file from Acrobat to the next user in the workflow and it grows to 281KB. Even I change only one field in the form.
This grows up to around 700KB in the end.
Is there a possibility to swith the incremental save function off?
thanks in advance for every response
Bern

Hi Pawel,
As A. Kerremans pointed out this is not possible, however if the item is not used to change the database you can set the AffectsFormMode property to false. This means that any change to the item will not change the form and B1 will not present you with message about saving the data (as it cannot detect that changes were made).
Good luck.
Best regards,
Pedro Magueija

How to I find a compatible, more powerful hard drive for my macbook 13 inch late 2008?

How to I find a compatible, more powerful hard drive for my macbook 13 inch late 2008?

There are many sources for compatible 2.5" laptop SATA interface hard drives and SSD's.
I've used Other World Computing (www.macsales.com) for a number of upgrades, and highly recommend them if you're in the US. OWC also posts helpful videos on YouTube showing step by step removal and installation instructions and the tools required for most Mac models. If your old drive is still functioning, but you're simply running out of space, you might also consider purchasing an upgrade kit that includes an external 2.5" drive enclosure with USB interface. Then you first install the new drive in the external enclosure and 'clone' the contents of old drive to it, then swap the old drive for the new one, and use the old drive in the external enclosure as a backup drive, to test new software and OS upgrades, or to store video, photos, and audio.

Where is the "search more" option in Gmail?

Currently using: Lumia 920 white - Windows Phone 8
I had a Lumia 800 before and when opening my email and searching for something, if it did not come up I could use the "search more" option and It would search in all my email. (not synced)
It looks like this option is not available any more in WP8.
However I can still use "search more" for hotmail or outlook but not for Gmail.
Anyone else experiencing this same problem?
How are you supposed to search through not-synced emails in gmail?
Thanks,

Several problems continuous since first installing Firefox. Personal google search settings don't save; remember me options on web sites like Facebook aren't remembered; Youtube and Flixy videos don't play despite removing/reinstalling/upgrading Firefox several times; upgraded the latest flash plugin today, but no difference, symptoms are black play box with youtube and white box with Flixy. Disbale AV and antimalware makes no difference either.

Why ABC's are more powerful 'interfaces' than interfaces

A simple answer as to what the value of Abstract Base Classes are is that
(1) They act like Interfaces, allowing for polymorphic abstraction of multiple implementations
(2) They allow for default implementations, but insist on derivation
For this question, please set aside any value that default implementations provide, and concentrate only on the 'interface'-like qualities of ABCs.
Why did sun decide to make ABCs more powerful as interfaces, than interfaces themselves.
Or... asked another way, in the following code snippet
public void doCoolStuff( ObjectOutputStream os, Fooable foo )
throws CloneNotSupportedException, IOException
    Fooable foo2 = (Fooable)foo.clone();
    foo2.changeMyselfSomehow();
    os.writeObject(foo2);
}If I said the Fooable 'thingy' has absolutely no implementation attached to it whatsoever, then, what kind of thingy is Fooable?

Functionally: A class can only extend one class,even
if the parent is an ABC, but it can inherit multiple
interfaces. public class Foo extends ABC1,ABC2
{} // won't compile
Yes that's the common logic. And yet Fooable
absolutely can not be an interface, but can be
an ABC.Interfaces can do X that ABCs can't do. ABCs can do Y that interfaces can't do. Which is more powerful?
This box is longer, but that box is wider. Which is bigger?

Which is the more powerful OS X for Mac?

   Thanks Barney, I get it! My English is not enough to explain exactly what I want to know... But I´ll try:
That is a simple question of a new mac user (Myself). I have bought my first Mac and it came with a version I do not remember the name. There was an update called Maverick available for download and I updated. Ok? I hope you are understanding me.... The point is: I just want to be always updated about the best system for my Mac, because I see and I hear many things about Mountain Lion, Leopard, Snow Leopard, etc... And doubts come in my mind.
   Doubts like these:
Which one is the best for my Mac?
Which one is the powerful one?
Which one over the Maverick (if there is one)I can run in my Mac no causing any problems?
Can you help me with it?
   My Mac is a Mac Book Pro 4GB/250GB... These are the information I can give you now, my Mac is not with me.
