HT204053 What are the pros and cons of 1) choosing to use the SAME Apple ID for iCloud services on one side, and purchases on the iTunes Store, App Store, and iBookstore, on the other side; or 2) to have and use two separate Apple Ids for these "two sides

All is in the title, so I repeat it below with a better identation.
What are the pros and cons of
1) choosing to use the SAME
Apple ID for iCloud services on one side, and
purchases on the iTunes Store, App Store, and iBookstore, on the other side; or
2) to have and use two separate Apple Ids for these "two sides"?
P.S.
I have loads and loads of free podcasts in iTunes in my iMac, that are certainly more thant the 5 gigas the iCloud provides for free, so I don't want those to go to the cloud. But this is perhaps a different question...
Also need to mention that I have itunes on a mac, a pc and an iphone.
Sorry to look so silly with this question, but I don't get the "big picture".

You need to create a user account for your wife (or yourself depending on who has the current user account). When syncing, each of you should sign in as a separate user, login to iTunes and then sync. I had this problem when my sister got an iPhone. When we did her initial sync, everything on my iPhone showed up on hers. Apple gave me this solution.

What are the pros and cons of installing java+abap stack for portal?

Hi all,
1.What are the pros and cons of installing java+abap stack for portal?
2.what effect it does on the ume options to be choosen??
3.for the purpose of integration of r3,bw and crm on portal and crm 4.0 60.2.3 business package which option of stack(java or abap or both)will be good option and which ume option while installation should be choosen?
regards
Rajendra

Hi Rajendra,
The NetWeaver Installation Master Guide offers some good scenarios on the pros and cons:
https://websmp201.sapag.de/~sapidb/011000358700005412792005E.pdf
In a nutshell:
ABAP+JAVA
Pros
- Decrease # of servers required to administer the portal
- Less costly
Cons
- Upgrades could be dependent on ABAP and Java release level
- Additional load on the server due to ABAP stack
- Limited scalability
JAVA and ABAP on separate server
Pros
- Improved performance
- Allows each system to be single-use purpose therefore downtime does not affect other components
- More scalable
Cons
- Adds complexity to landscape
- Additional costs

What are the pros and cons re using an intel iMac vs MacPro with LP8?

I'm considering getting a new intel Mac in the near future (presuming a new MacPro will be released in the near future - maybe at the same time as Leopard). I compose largely for film and television and I am composing largely using a combination of loops, software instruments and some recorded live performance. I usually sync to a low res quicktime movie.
I do like the idea of a simple and uncluttered work environment with an iMac, added to which there's also a degree of portability with the iMac however the MacPro is obviously more powerful. I'm not sure how much the difference in power between the two computers would affect me.
Would I be compromising myself much if I went for the iMac over the MacPro? What are the pros and cons of the iMac vs the MacPro in relation to Logic Pro 8?

In the world large-scale music composition using samples, loops, etc (especially for film) your two biggest needs are RAM and HD speed/access. The imac looses big time in this department (as a single computer at least) as it can only be upgraded to 4gb ram, and only holds one internal HD, and also lacks any PCI expansion for DSP cards, audio interfaces, etc.
In generalyou want to separate your data vs applications as much as possible, to ensure both can be accessed quickly and easily by the computer. So its best to have your system software / applications on one internal HD, and your logic data (samples, audio recordings, loops) on another drive(s). You can do this with an iMac via USB, FW800, & FW400, but depending on how big your projects get, how many USB and FW drives / interfaces you use, and how much data you need to stream, you could overload the buss on the imac (not sure if it has multiple busses or not). Plus speed wise, internal SATA are much faster than external drives, and the mac pro with its 4 internal slots seems like a great choice for speed and flexibility.
However, if you dont find yourself doing large scale projects, then you might be better off going with an imac. We just purchased one for my father and it runs great! It blows the socks off of my Dual 2.5 G5 tower in terms of CPU speed! If you run into problems running things from the imac, you could always add a mac-mini down the road to stream sample libs, as a Logic node, etc, which seems to be a much more cost effective solution.
I hope this was helpful, but I probably just made the decision harder . In fact, if I were to start over today, I dont know if I'd go with a MacPro, or an iMac / mac mini combination. they both seem to have their advantages / disadvantages.
Best of luck!

Hi Swing masters! :)
I was told that I should post this Q here and that Camickr and a few other might have some more specific answers.
I'm new to Java and programming and trying to establish some good habits from the beginning. Therefore I'm very interested in knowing the Pros and Cons for each end every of the following approaches.
What is good, what is bad, should some of them be avoided etc?
I hope someone with Swing experience can answer these questions. Thanks. :)
Kind regards,

Well, in most of the examples I've seen on the net people use "...extends JFrame"Well, I'm probably one of the bigest offenders (in this forum at least)
google "composition vs inheritance", you'll most likely find some good reads Not know the difference between the two (I'm a problem solver, not a designer), I figured I should take up the challenge.
So one of the first links I read said:
Object composition and inheritance are two techniques for reusing functionality in object-oriented systems
So I'm thinking how do you reuse a JFrame? Maybe if you build the frame with a menu bar or toolbar you could reuse some of the components but you don't reuse the entire frame. So it seems to me that the reuse aspect of inheritance or composition doesn't apply.
Next link I read said:
Make sure inheritance models the is-a relationship
Now this makes sense to me. Lets say I'm creating a MineSweeper Game. Lets create a class with the following signature:
public class MineSweeper extends JFrameThis obviously does not follow the is-a relationship rule. MineSweeper is-a Game, not a JFrame.
So, I guess I'll have to update all my examples to use composition, so I don't mislead others on the forum.

What are the pros and cons using Active Data Guard vs Data Guard?

My understanding is that Active Data Guard is an additional database option for Oracle 11gR2 Enterprise Edition. I need to know the pros and cons using Active Data Guard vs Data Guard in order to decide whether to get pay extra for the Active Data Guard.
Thanks for any help.

Hemant K Chitale wrote:
Before jumping in to Active Data Guard, one needs to evaluate :
a. Is there really a need to run queries on the Standby ? The Standby could / should be at a remote site so queries are "across the network". Depending on the nature of the queries and the volume of output, the "performance" of the queries may not seem to be the same.
b. If the database is not in Maximum Protection mode, the data "seen" at the standby may not be in "real-time" synch
c. Not all applications are truely read-only when querying. Some applications use "jobs" that write to tables when querying. Such would not work with Active DataGuard. (example : EBusiness Suite). There are very complicated ways of handling this -- and one needs to consider if the complications can be introduced and supported.
Over the network accessing standby read only is really not an good idea, I think no one will compare performance with primary and standby,
But some of them they want to validate data which are very critical, as it is matching with primary or not, Its an added advantage with ACTIVE DATAGUARD
Prior to that until unless stop MRP, open database and then we need to validate, So there is an interruption of recovery, I can say its also an advantage where there is no interruption of recovery.

What are the pros and cons of running iTunes from an SD card with a Retina MBP?

Hello,
I'm thinking about getting a Retina MBP, but I think the default storage of 256GB is way to small to be used as a main computer and the upgrade to 512GB is very expensive. I was thinking of ways to reduce bulky files and was considering running iTunes from an SD card. Does anybody have any experience with doing this, what pros and cons did you discover?

I wouldn't even try storing multiple iTunes libraries on SD cards. Better idea - what I do - is store the majority of my music on an external hard drive and just my 'must have' tunes on my internal SSD. I have a 512GB SSD and use around 170GB for iTunes. On my external drive, I had about 440GB in tunes (last time I checked).
You can 'switch' libraries by holding down the option key when you launch iTunes. It's the best of both worlds - storage for on-the-go, must-haves, and an entire library of "all" of my music.
256GB should be plenty of space - I just store so much music on my internal SSD because I can!

What are the pros and cons of storing heavely used CFCs in the application scope?

I've been storing all the required CFCs for a site in the application scope. During onApplicationStart I do something like this application.objSomeCfc =CreateObject('component', 'com.someCfc').init().
Here is my reasoning.
Get the CFCs initialized once and stored in memory for better performance.
Using CreateObject several times on each page load can have a negative impact on performance.
Having one place to create application scoped CFCs makes it easier to manage code.
So is my thinking flawed? Are there any additional pros or cons for dealing with CFCs? Is there any docs, articles, blogs, videos, frameworks, ...... that I should check that may change my perspective on how I'm doing this?
Thanks

Your approach is fine, depending on how many and what type of CFCs you are talking about. If they are "singletons" - that is, only one instance of each CFC is needed to be in memory and can be reused/shared from multiple parts of your application - caching them in the application scope is common. Just make sure they are thread safe ("var" or local.* all your method variables).
You might consider taking advantage of a dependency injection framework, such as DI/1 (part of the FW/1 MVC framework), ColdSpring, or WireBox (a module of the ColdBox platform that can be used independently). They have mechanisms for handling and caching singletons. Then you wouldn't have to go to the application scope to get your CFC instances.

What Are The Pro And Cons About The Air

Can you please answer me because i want to get the best for my money
The Laptop in question is the 13'' thanks!
PLEASE ANSWER xx

Look there is No Best. Simple fact is, throughout your life, you will spend your money on things and they will either work or not. And you can be assured that at some point whatever you buy and whatever amount of money you spend on it, a lot or a little, eventually it will fail. Just like all people die, they fail eventually.
So stop worrying about it, go down to a store, Look over what they offer, take notes, go home and search the internet for problems, then go back and buy what seems to fit you the best.
Or be like me. I see something I like, I look at the price, if I can afford it I Buy IT.

What are the pros and cons of using a port system.

Hello All,
I'm a new explorer in the OS X UNIX world, and have installed macports, and, for the most part, succeeded in building and using a number of scientific applications.
I have noted a somewhat negative attitude by some on the use of port systems, while others seem quite content with them.
When making my decision to use macports, these "selling points" seemed desirable to me:
¤ Confines ported software to a private “sandbox” that keeps it from intermingling with your operating system and its vendor-supplied software to prevent them from becoming corrupted.
¤ Allows you to create pre-compiled binary installers of ported applications to quickly install software on remote computers without compiling from source code.
Especially the first point seems valuable, but am I deluding myself? Or, am I losing functionality/ flexibility? Or, am I just missing out on manually installing lots of dependents?
_I'm not trying to start a feud, here._
I'm just looking for some pointers (preferably well-substantiated) from those more knowledgeable than me, before I am any further committed to a choice I might later regret.
Thanks,
PWK

The biggest drawback/complaint I have is that you're bound by the implementation/installation policy of whoever built the port.
For example, take the installation issue - all software gets installed into some specific directory which is great one one hand - fewer compatibility issues with conflicting versions from what Apple provide. The downside, though, is that nothing on your machine will use these versions unless/until you tweak them.
For example, maybe you want to install the MacPorts version of PHP, great, but the standard Apache won't use that, so you either need to install the MacPorts version of Apache, or tweak your Apache installation to use the non-standard PHP version.
Well, what about PATHs, I hear you ask? well, sure, you could prepend the MacPorts/fink/whatever directory to your $PATH, but then you always use the MacPorts/fink/whatever version of any installed software which might not be what you want.
This becomes more of an issue in a multi-server environment where you have multiple systems that all need tweaking/maintaining - nothing worse than setting up a new server by copying an existing installation, only to find that it depends on MacPorts/fink/whatever being installed.
The corollary to this is that these package managers often install ancillary software that you do not need, nor want. It might have improved since I last looked, but installing either MacPorts or fink, for example, installs whole new versions of perl, GNU tools (gzip/gunzip, etc.), curl, and more - they even install new copies of openssl/ssh.
I don't want these. These already exist on my system so what are they needed for? Why can't they use the standard copies? Are they 'tweaked' in some way? How? why?
The secondary issue is that you are limited to the port's implementation - especially compile options - which may not be ideal for your machine.
Unlike most GUI-based software, much open-source software uses compile-time options to configure the executable. Now the port installer might do a reasonable job of tweaking the installation, but it's not psychic so there will be cases where you end up with sub-optimal installations. Sure, they might work well enough, but that doesn't beat knowing what those options are up-front and building your own.
Now there have been cases where I've tried to install software and almost given up when faced with a daunting list of dependencies (try RRD, or PHP w/ GD, for example) and have almost given up, but when you succeed the satisfaction of getting it working, plus the fact you now know how to do it counts for a lot.
Now, do I wish that Apple would do a better job of keeping up with the latest versions of the open source software they include in Mac OS X? absolutely - isn't that what Software Update is all about??). But I also wish the port maintainers would spend more of their time updating the original source configure and make scripts to incorporate whatever changes they're making to the code so that Mac users can easily use the same source distribution as other UNIX flavors.
And right there is the final rub IMHO - all the while the port managers create their distributions of common tools Mac OS X is treated like a poor step-child that's kept in the cellar. OK, maybe not that bad, but there's no reason why anyone who wants to install open source software on a Mac should need much more than:
(download>
./configure
make
sudo make install
it really isn't all that hard. Too often the port managers perpetuate the myth that Mac OS X is too different from other UNIX systems to work with the standard tools that everyone else knows.
Now, maybe I'm also too old for this game since you always downloaded and built tools yourself when I started, and maybe package managers on Linux (which may have the same issues I've complained about) have helped elevate Linux in the mindset of a younger generation who are looking for a quick fix. All I can say to that is…

What are the pro and cons on buying a refurbished ipod 5?

I want to save some money so i'm wondering if it's a good idea to buy a refurbished iPod touch 5th generation. I know that it was used and that it had some problems before, but that should be fixed and approved by apple. I've heard many positive results but aswell as negative results so, i can;t make up mind!

If you need to save the money buy the refurbished model. It will have the same warranty as a new one.
