Should I use Windows for Filetopia?

I'd like to download Filetopia but their info says it's only compatible with Windows.
At this point, I haven't used Windows for anything and am concerned about viruses.
BTW, I was invited into a secure chat group on Filetopia.

HI,
Installing Windows on your Mac requries doing your homework first. It can be a daunting task at best depending on your computer background and experience.
To install Windows on a Mac just for one application which would deem your Mac vulnerable to viruses (on the Windows partition only) doesn't quite seem worth the work.
If you were to install Windows using BootCamp, you might want to check out the BootCamp Manual here first. http://manuals.info.apple.com/en/bootcampinstall-setup.pdf

Mavericks Bootcamp! Should I use Windows 7 or 8? x64 or x86?

What version of Windows works best with Mavericks Bootcamp? Should I use Windows 7 or 8? x64 or x86?

My preference Windows 7 because Windows 8 is designed for and works best on a touch screen computer.. Regardless, use 64 bit.

Should I use "Windows Forms Application" or "WPF Application" or ..... ?

Hi everybody!
I want to become a master programmer.
I want to programming "Windows Desktop"
I am using Visual Studio Ultimate 2013 by language C# on Windows 8 OS
I am confusing because Should I use "Windows Forms Application" or "WPF Application" or .....?
which one is better?
Help me!!!!!!!! Please!!!!!
Thanks a lot!
if possible, please send me "step by step exercises about the WPF Application to email: [email protected]
thanks again

Although I don't have much experience with WPF, only Windows Forms, this blog post might shed some light on which decision you should make:
http://rachel53461.wordpress.com/2012/10/12/switching-from-winforms-to-wpfmvvm/
If you are looking to just add a quick and dirty UI on top of a small script or executable tool, Windows Forms would be the answer, as it is very easy to learn and use. However, since you have the best tools currently available, and you say you want to do
it the right way, I would say learn WPF now. You will benefit from it later on.

Can I use Windows for Mac in iCloud?

Hello, I would like to use Windows for Mac or any similar program, but I don't want to store it on my hard drive. Can I use it in iCloud, or any other Cloud environment?
Would you recommend a good Windows for Mac type of program?
Thank you!

A virtual machine is a program, see my above post, that lets you install Windows in a virtual environment on your computer. You can not run Windows from iCloud or any other cloud.
As for cost, you have to by the virtual machine (about $60). You also have to buy Windows (about $99). Or you could use Boot Camp Assitant to install Windows. Boot Camp Assistant is included with OSx. Windows will still cost about $99.

Should I use flex for my website

Hey, I am having trouble figuring out if I should be using
flex for a site similar to the BBC site:
http://www.bbc.co.uk. I have
started the site in flex but I am running into a lot of problems.
It could be that I am a newbie to Flex, but wanted to make sure if
I should still be going a head with this in Flex. Any advice would
be appreciated.
Thank you,
Vinny

I would say that if you don't know the answer to that
question, then the
answer is probably no. You need to have a pretty firm
understanding of how
sites like that work under the hood before trying to build
one in Flex.

Why should we use WSDL for developing webservices

I need to develop Webservice Application for our Client .
I dont know anything about WSDL4J
Hi from the net i found this
"The Web Services Description Language for Java Toolkit (WSDL4J) allows the creation, representation, and manipulation of WSDL documents.
Is the reference implementation for JSR110 'JWSDL' (jcp.org)."
But anybody please tell me why should we use WSDL for developing webservices ??
Is there any specific advantage we will get ??
And Can body please point me a link where to start for working with WSDL4j ?
Thank you very much

i seriously doubt you want to use wsdl4j unless you are doing really advanced webservice work. assuming you are developing this webservice from scratch, you basically want to use JAXWS: define an appropriate interface and your value classes, and let JAXWS do the rest. metro is the JAXWS implementation included in the oracle jdk and it has great tutorials and reference documentation online. i'd suggest you start here: http://metro.java.net/getting-started/

Used Windows for my Ipod for years, now switching to Mac...

I heard that you can only use one ipod per computer. How do I make a smooth transition with my itunes from my old windows computer to my mac without any problems?

Im not sure where you heard you could only use one ipod per computer, i use 2.
for transitioning easily all you have to do is go onto itunes on your mac and sign in to the same account that was on your PC and you should get all your music on your mac. i did this about 6 months ago and it worked perfectly.

SHould I use keynote for this?

We will exhibit at the Frankfurt ProLight+Sound this year and the task of producing the picture slideshow with promotional material has fallen on to my desk.
Plan is to have three plasma screens connected in to one giant screen so that images move from one screen to another, to the third, and so on.
Should I use keynote to produce this? Or is it better to do something in iMovie/FCE/FCP? Or is Director the software to use?
The other thing is that this will run either on a PC or off a DVD player and it has to be looped.
Thanks in advance.

I would suggest using FCP because I don't think iMovie can show 3 pictures at the same time. FCP does cost a lot and is used by many to edit movies (Like any movie you would see in a theater). I wouldn't suggest buying it if your not going to use it a lot. Then use Keynote. Make the pictures move with each slide. Loop it and make it a QuickTime (.mov). Click 'Manual Advance' and change it to 'Fixed Timing'. Click 'None' and change it to 'Loop'. Check 'Enter full screen mode when opened'. Click on 'Full Quality, Large' and change it to 'CD-ROM Movie, Medium'. Check 'Include transparency'. That should make it easy to burn to CD/DVD and play back on a Windows Machine. On a VCR I have no idea.

Should I use TimesTen for unstable table

Hi all,
I have a table that there are a lot of accessing operations to it, include: select, insert, update, delete. My table has 80 columns, about 1M rows, one primary key (2 cols), 5 indexes in other cols.
I want to increase select speed.
Should I use TimesTen Cache for this table? Which cachegroup type (read-only, awt, swt,...) I should use?
Thanks!

Sure you could use TimesTen to cache this table from the Oracle database. As you are performing DML against it I would recommend you look at the Asynchronous Write-Through (AWT) Cache Group.

Can I use Windows for Mac?

My boss bought me Parallels Windows for Mac.
Why would I want to use that?
Would it harm my Mac?
Would my Mac be suseptive to viruses with that?

He said in case I wanted to run something that would require windows.
I do not like Windows, I use it at work because I do not have a choice.
Whatever document or anything that anyone sends me that my iMac will not open I just delete.
He also bought me Acronis True Image for Mac, for Backups, but what he does not know is that I purchased a
WD My Passport for Mac 2TB and that is how I back up my Mac once a month.
I feel bad he is such a nice boss. But I really do not like installing things in my Mac that are unnecessary or that might be
harmful to my Mac.

How are Tab Groups superior to using windows for tab groupings?

With Mac OS 10.5 I have been using windows as a defacto method for tab groupings. When tabs get two crowded, I open a new window. I have to move between windows to get to all tabs in a group.
The Tab Grouping instructions don't address moving tabs from multiple windows into a single large group, say, for charts on a large number of stocks.
[A disadvantage with my multiple window system has been my occasional misstep, e.g., closing a window full of tabs with the red button when I intended to minimize the widow with the yellow button, or, worse, when I get the option after a Firefox crash or power loss to Restore windows and tabs or Start a New Session and I hit the Start New session Button; in either event I lose the tabs and/or windows affected.]

I don't ever use it because I think it is odd to have tabs floating around my desktop but you can drag Snippets, Connections and Reports outside the SQL Developer Window - Detail tabs and the Worksheet can't be. Not sure if this works on a Mac or if this is what you were looking for but wanted to mention it.

Using windows for mac

I am new to computing. My Mac is intel based with OS 10.7.5. I read on one of the communities that if I use boot camp
to download windows 7 it would open up my mac for PC viruses.
If I get windows for mac from the app store, will I be suseptible to PC viruses

Boot Camp installs Windows on a separate partition from OS X. When you boot Windows OS X is not running, so any malware from Windows cannot affect OS X.
Windows must be purchased separately as there is not 'windows for Mac.' There is Windows only.
Windows on Intel Macs
There are presently several alternatives for running Windows on Intel Macs.
   1. Install the Apple Boot Camp software. Purchase Windows
         XP w/Service Pak2, Vista, or Windows 7. For Boot Camp
         4.0 and above you can only use Windows 7 or later. Follow
         instructions in the Boot Camp documentation on
         installation of Boot Camp, creating Driver CD, and
         installing Windows. Boot Camp enables you to boot the
         computer into OS X or Windows.
     2. Parallels Desktop for Mac and Windows XP, Vista Business,
         Vista Ultimate, or Windows 7. Parallels is software
         virtualization that enables running Windows concurrently
         with OS X.
     3. VM Fusion and Windows XP, Vista Business, Vista Ultimate,
         or Windows 7. VM Fusion is software virtualization that
         enables running Windows concurrently with OS X.
     4. CrossOver which enables running many Windows
         applications without having to install Windows. The
         Windows applications can run concurrently with OS X.
     5. VirtualBox is an Open Source freeware virtual machine such
         as VM Fusion and Parallels that was developed by Solaris.
         It is not as fully developed for the Mac as Parallels and VM
         Fusion.
Note that VirtualBox, Parallels, and VM Fusion can also run other operating systems such as Linux, Unix, OS/2, Solaris, etc. There are performance differences between dual-boot systems and virtualization. The latter tend to be a little slower (not much) and do not provide the video performance of the dual-boot system. See MacTech Labs- Virtualization Benchmarks, January 2013 | MacTech for comparisons of Boot Camp, Parallels, and VM Fusion. Boot Camp is only available with Leopard or Snow Leopard. Except for Crossover and a couple of similar alternatives like DarWine you must have a valid installer disc for Windows.
You must also have an internal optical drive for installing Windows. Windows cannot be installed from an external optical drive.

Should I use Windows Live Mail or Outlook Express ...

I have always used Windows Live Mail, as it is a very simple and pleasant program to use - great graphics, interface and reminders.
I found Outlook way too fiddly and technical, with a very boring interface and comparatively poor reminders that email has arrived.
However, since getting my E71 setup with Nokia Messaging, I have overcome this for the sake of being able to sync my contacts and messages - Outlook 2007 is now set as my default browser.
This was ok, but now when I use Windows Live Messenger I get email reminders up - and clicking on those takes me into Windows Live Mail.
I just want one, streamlined email/messenger service - one of these email managers must be deleted!
- Can I sync my E71 into Windows Live Mail instead of Outlook?
OR
- Can I replace Windows Live Mail with Outlook 2007, as the email manager used by Windows Live Messenger to open emails?
I want everything done with one email browser!

You can use iCloud Mail with Windows Live Mail, but not Calendars or Contacts.
If you want to use iCloud on Windows download EMClient, you can access the core services (Mail, Calendars and Contacts) using it. Installation and configuration will be manual.

Why should we use BRTOOLS for oracle data backup?

Hi there,
Any one of you have any idea on specific advantages with using BRTOOLS for backup over using only Oracle RMAN?
Are there any advantages using brbackup in databackups which we do not get with RMAN alone?
thanks

Been using Windows for 25 years and I want a Mac book Pro?

Hello all, I am very afraid of trying to learn Mac, I need to run my eBay business and I take tons of photos that must be cropped and adjusted. I have been using Windows Live Photo to do all of my cropping and photo editing. Does a Mac book pro come with software to do photo editing or do I have to buy a program? I do have an iPad, iPhone and iPod and can use them properly. Does anyone have any thoughts, thank you.
