Some Synch Questions (A frustrating experience)

Hello,
Sorry if this is a repeat. I could not find an answer. I have had some very frustrating experieces with iTunes where I lose all my songs. I have some questions below that I hope someone can direct me to right place. I love my iPod Touch but I must say I do not like iTunes.
1. All I wanted to do was just add one video. I clicked Manage manually check button. It did put that one video on my iPod Touch but all songs and playlists were gone. Can I not just load one file and leave all else alone?
2. In one case, I forgot to turn on my external drive where I store some music. So, iTunes of course cannot synch and gives me a correct message. I exit iTunes and turn on the drive (mapped to same drive letter). Launch iTunes again. It still cannot find those songs. I have to one by one point to the right plance and file to re-establish the link. This is just frustrating. What should I do? other than rebuild my playlist.
3. Suppose I have my iTunes library at my home computer. I want to load some news pod in office so I can see/listen on train back home. How do I do that without destroying my music/playlists and other videos.
Thanks in advance

I guess no answer! Love my iPod Touch but hate iTunes. Never know when it is going to wipe out my library.

  • Some generic questions on BPM of NW CE

    Hi Gurus
      i have over 6 years of ABAP business workflow experience and over 3 years of XI experience. Now i'm getting tough with this new stuff, BPM of NW CE. Here i have some generic questions of it:
    1. How can i trigger a BPM task while a document, like a sales order , has been created in the system? is there any processes to catch the event of R3 in NWDI?
    2. Can BPM consume RFC/BAPIs in R3?
    3. Is it possible to make message mapping in BPM? i found there is a 'mapping' choice in the context setting of NWDI whereas it is quite simple compared with PI.
    4. Can the BPM be integrated with webdynpro ABAP? or send the relevant tasks into R3 directly? Actually what i mean is , can i bypass java programing while dealing with BPM of CE, if possible.
    thanks

    Hi Stephen,
    In the first released version of SAP NetWeaver BPM it is not possible to catch events of R/3 directly. Anyway. In case you have the possibility to trigger a web service in that situation you could start off a specific (BPM) process instance that handles the situation.
    The same is basically true for the question regarding RFC: In the initial version you'd need to wrap the RFC into a web service in order to consume it.
    The mapping possibilities in SAP NetWeaver BPM are meant to perform data flow between different activities in a BPMN based process model. This way you could transform a message that came into the process in that way that if fits your needs in regards to the BPM process (data) context.
    Bypassing Java when using SAP NetWeaver BPM would be difficult as the supported UI technology is Web Dynpro for Java. In addition the possibility to add more flexibility to your mappings by defining custom functions is based on EJB, thus again Java.
    Best regards,

  • Worst and most frustrating experience in twenty years of software use

    February, 2010 I purchased Photoshop Elements 8.  I registered it, got a website dedicated to my screen name, etc.  I finally got the time to accumulate all my photos into organizer and organize them.  It took me two days.  I went in today, the third day, and the software won't open because there's a popup screen from Adobe for me to upgrade to Photoshop Elements 9.   The pop-up doesn't have a close button on it.  I can't get into the software I've paid for because Adobe wants to sell me more software.  After two days of use, I have no intention of sending them more money to use software I already have.  So then I called Support and waited on hold for 25 minutes only to be told I need TECH support and am put back on hold for another five minutes.  After 1/2 hour total on hold time, they tell me that Adobe Photoshop 8 is a pay-for-support product.  YOU ARE KIDDING ME!  They want $39 from me to answer the question of why the software they sold me won't open because they are trying to sell me an upgrade and forgot to put a Close button on the pop-up? 
    The guy says there's an answer on the forum for the problem.  Well, I searched the forum.  I didn't see an answer.  Maybe it's here.  I don't know. 
    So I'm really just trying to scream here and see if anyone at Adobe listens or cares enough to be able to address their failure. 
    By the way, I was working with the purchasing department on a competition for use of imaging and document management software to satisfy regulatory compliance requirements for the global consulting firm where I work.  Probably a multi-million dollar long term deal.  Nice that they've blown that over $39 Support fee trying to get a $60 upgrade out of me after two days of using properly purchased, licensed, registered software. 
    Oh, I forgot to mention that the e-mail with which I registered doesn't show as registered, despite my having a web-site set up for me and despite them being able to find me to try and sell me upgrades, they can't find me when it's time to provide assistance.   
    This is hands down the worst product support and most frustrating experience of using software I have had in well over twenty years as a software user.  Nothing else has even come close - including situations that resulted in lawsuits!

    Derek,
    Off hand I don't remember the remedy for your predicament, there is one, but in the meantime go to the PhotoshopElementsEditor.exe file (or similar, this is PSE9) and hopefully start the software by double clicking on it.

  • Some quick questions before I purchase LE8..

    Hi all,
    I'm a longtime mac user and I just got into music production. I plan on mainly making Hip Hop beats and also record me playing bass on sampled tracks. I have already purchased an audio interface( PreSonus Firebox 6x10) and some monitors (KRK RP5's). I'm going to be purchasing LE8 and a MIDI keyboard soon, as well as a turntable for sampling vinyl sometime this week.
    I got some quick questions though. If I'm loading samples off vinyl into the ESX24 sampler in LE8, what program can I use within LE8 to cut the desired parts of the sample? Then assign them to my MIDI keyboard or Akai MPD24.
    I plan on hooking everything up to my 2.16ghz w/2MB Macbook and was wondering if it could withstand Logic. Also, will I need to update any drivers for the firebox? I remember reading problems about it working with Logic.
    Any help would greatly be appreciated. If any Hip Hop heads here have any tips/ suggestions, lemme know!
    Thanks,
    JC

    I'm not a big expert on audio recording, but other than the video card (which would not be a big factor for audio) you can't really upgrade it to much further than what you specified. You could increase the internal storage, but I've always been inclined to keep most of my personal files (things I am not actively working on now) on an external drive, and keep the OS, applications, and my current ongoing work on the internal drive, along with plenty of free space. I think that improves performance. If you did get the larger internal storage option, you might consider partitioning it into two volumes. You could keep your OS, apps, ongoing work, and that free space on one volume, and use the other volume for the long-term storage of your user files. Or maybe for your audio work, it is better to have a separate volume that is a dedicated +scratch space+, so if you had the larger internal drive, you can use that space more flexibly.
    One other consideration is the CPU speed. There is really very little difference between 2.93 GHz and 3.06 GHz. It's about 4%, but in the real world, the performance difference is probably even less. So you could trade the $150 for the slightly faster speed and get the extra internal storage for $100, saving you $50.
    Also, the online store has a page for clearance and refurbs (Special Deals). For example, this one is currently listed
    http://store.apple.com/us/product/FB419LL/A?mco=MjE0NDk5Mw
    It is the current gen iMac model. Note: Many of the items on the Special Deals section are previous generation Mac models (so keep that in mind if you look at other listings). My current iMac is a refurb. In my experience, the one Mac and two iPods I have purchased as refurbs have looked new. They just come in a plain brown box instead of the fancy retail packaging. The warranty is the same as new.

  • Some quick questions before purchase of MBP

    Hey Guys/Gals,
    I've been a PC user all my life, but will now be making a permanent switch to Macs. I've been wanting to buy a MBP since they have been released, but have been hesitant (like many others I think...) about the issues of whine, extreme heat, warped screens etc...
    With the recent updates of the logic board and even battery, I think I'm ready to go for it. I just had some quick questions before I place my order:
    1. I could order my MBP from the computer store at my university. Do you guys think that will get me the newest possible MBP or will they maybe get me one that they have had in stock for ages? I really don't want to get stuck with an outdated logic board and/or battery. Is it safest just to order directly from the site?
    2. Although the issue with really hot MBPs seems to have gotten better, I am still quite shocked that people say that temperatures well above 70 Celsius are "within spec". I understand that Apple officially states this and that the Intel chip can handle up to 100 Celsius, but this seems crazy to me Basically, I want to ask if I am correct in my observations that the new Intel chips don't get much hotter than other chips around, but rather Apple has chosen to set the temperature mark that sets off the fans pretty hight (around the 70s if I remember correctly?)
    I would assume that in following their "mission" of creating beautifully designed computers, Apple also wants to have a really silent one. Now I'm all for a quiet machine, but I feel as though if fans were on either (a) all the time or (b) when the CPU reaches the high 50s lots of people would be happier.
    Anyway, it's just a thought. I noticed there are lots of experts around here, so I'm just interested to hear what you guys think about this approach that Apple seems to have taken. I don't think the heat will stop me from getting this amazing notebook, but it certainly is a little frustrating.
    Any responses are greatly appreciated.

    No matter where you take possession there's no assurance of when the machine was manufactured. There is really just as good a chance of getting a perfectly good computer regardless of place of purchase. If there is a problem it's covered under warranty. You can have the computer replaced within the first two weeks. Afterwards they will replace or repair. Without Applecare's extended warranty the computer is warranted for one year after purchase.

    You are wrong in your assumption. The Core Duo's maximum temperature is 125C before shutdown. Normal operating temperatures according to Intel's own documentation is 50-70C under average load. MBPs under heavy load will typically reach core temperatures over 80C. Then there's the added heat from the hard drive and GPU. The aluminum case acts as a partial heat radiator hence the case temperatures can get high. The MBP User Guide specifically states this and issues a warning about using the computer on one's lap.
    I would assume that in following their "mission" of creating beautifully designed computers, Apple also wants to have a really silent one. Now I'm all for a quiet machine, but I feel as though if fans were on either (a) all the time or (b) when the CPU reaches the high 50s lots of people would be happier.
    In fact the fans in the MBP are very quiet at least mine are. Unless you are in the hardware design business with intimate knowledge of using Core Duo chips in portable computers, then your observations, although certainly your opinion, are not based on anything factual.
    Anyway, it's just a thought. I noticed there are lots of experts around here, so I'm just interested to hear what you guys think about this approach that Apple seems to have taken. I don't think the heat will stop me from getting this amazing notebook, but it certainly is a little frustrating.
    More likely there are a lot of people around here who think they are experts. As the remark goes, "An 'expert' derives from ex, meaning 'has been', and spert, meaning 'drip under pressure.'"
    You'll read lots of opinions on these forums. Don't take for granted that everything you read is factual or truth. A lot of the opinions expressed are without any basis in fact.

  • I have a Macbook Pro june 2011... I have 8GB ram but I only have 256mb VRAM... I've read some other questions about this and I realized... Why do I not have 560mb of VRAM since I have 8GB of RAM? Is there any way to get more VRAM to play games on steam?

    I have a Macbook Pro june 2011... I have 8GB ram but I only have 256mb VRAM...
    I've read some other questions about this and I realized... Why do I not have 560mb of VRAM since I have 8GB of RAM?
    Is there any way to get more VRAM to play games on steam?
    I've learned  by reading other topics that I can't upgrade my graphics card on my Macbook Pro because it's soldered into the motherboard or somthing like that, but please tell me if there is any way to get more video ram by chaning some setting or upgrading something else. I'd also like to know why I only have 256MB of VRAM when I have 8GB of RAM, since I have 8GB of RAM I thought I was supposed to have 560mb of VRAM...
    So the two questions are...
    Is there any way to upgrade my VRAM, so that I can play games on steam?
    Why do I only have 256MB VRAM when I have 8GB total RAM?
    Other Info:
    I have a quad core i7 Processor.
    My graphcics card is the AMD Radeon HD 6490M.
    I am also trying to play games on my BOOTCAMPed side of my mac, or my Windows 7 Professional side.
    THANK YOU SO MUCH IF YOU CAN REPLY,
    Dylan

    The only two items that a user can change on a MBP are the RAM and HDD (Retinas not included).  You have what the unit came with and the only way you will be able to change that is to purchase a MBP with superior graphics
    If you are very much into gaming, the I suggest A PC.  They are far superior for that type of application to a MBP.

  • Some basic questions on File Adapter

    Hello all,
    I have some basic questions on XI and File Adapter and hope you can help me. Any answer is appreciated.
    1. Can I use NFS transport protocol to poll a file from a machine in the network, which is not the XI? Or do I have to use FTP instead?
    2. If I understand it correctly - when using the FTP-File Adapter, XI has the role of a ftp client. I have to run a ftp server on my distant machine. XI connects to FTP-Server and polls the file.
    Can it also be configured the other way round? The scenario I think of would be: FTP client installed on distant machine, which connects to FTP-Server(XI) and loads up a file. So XI would act as FTP Server.
    I know this works, if I install a ftp Server on the computer my XI runs on, and use the NFS-File Adapter to observe the folder. But I want to know, if I need a second, independant ftp server for this.
    3. And last but not least: When do I need the active ftp mode instead of passive?
    Thanx a lot for your answers!

    <b>It depends on your firewall configuration. The best and the fastests is active mode but not always available.</b>

  • Some interview Question?

    hello all, as this forum has many brilliant minds, i have some interview question, if you mind please let me know the answer....
    q1. default level at which validation accurs?
    q2. in which case property pallet display **** as a property value, what its meaning?
    q3. best way to ensure that item can not accept query criteria?
    q4. what is the use of key-other trigger?
    q5. what is the use of forms module validation unit. if it is set to form then data block pre-text-item trigger at point will raise?
    i tried but did not find any relevant answer.

    Hi yash...
    q1. default level at which validation accurs?Well, the default level is where ur trigger exist ( Form Level ,Block Level or Item Level )
    q2. in which case property pallet display **** as a property value, what its meaning?Conceal ; it means hiding displaying data and it is almost used in password text item.
    q3. best way to ensure that item can not accept query criteria?Well, actually i don't have any forms now but u could try it urself item property > query criteria (any related query allowed property ) >NO
    q4. what is the use of key-other trigger?A Key-Others trigger fires when an operator presses the associated key.
    A Key-Others trigger is associated with all keys that can have key triggers associated with them but are not currently defined by function key triggers (at any level).
    A Key-Others trigger overrides the default behavior of a Runform function key (unless one of the restrictions apply). When this occurs, however, Oracle Forms still displays the function key's default entry in the Keys screen.
    Hope this helps...
    Good Luck :)

  • Some simple questions regarding the Xcode.

    I have some preliminary questions regarding the Xcode (objective C):
    What is the difference between the programming files followed by .h and .m?
    What does an asterisk * followed by a text mean (i.e. *window;)?
    Is there any source that briefly explains the most common codes with examples (nsstring, nsarray, iboutlet, inaction.....etc)?
    Any other tips will be highly appreciated.
    Many thanks.

    Xcode is the IDE.
    Objective-C is the most common language used within Xcode.
    UIWindow *window .....  the * means return the address of the instance variable 'window'.
    An * is called a pointer to a variable.

  • Some basic questions from a mac newbie

    hi,
    i have been using linux and windows all this while, and recently began using an apple too. have some simple questions here that i hope to get some answers for.
    1. is there something similar to /etc/hosts in linux where i can add the IP address of a server? this is for me to use the 'ssh' command in the terminal
    2. when i open up an application, say safari or chrome, i want the window to fill the entire screen automatically, instead of having to drag the bottom right of the window to fill the screen. how to configure that?
    3. when i close an application by clicking on the 'x' at the top left, why is it that it still appears in the list when i press command+tab? to remove the application from the list, i have to right click on its icon on the dock, then click 'quit'. this is rather troublesome.
    appreciate any help!

    1. is there something similar to /etc/hosts in linux where i can add the IP address of a server? this is for me to use the 'ssh' command in the terminal
    The /etc/hosts file is there, but the /etc/ folder is hidden. You can use the Terminal (in /Applications/Utilities/) to access it via Unix, or could enter "open /etc" in the Terminal to open that folder in the Finder.
    However, I'm not sure how this relates to ssh... I have not needed to modify that file, yet I can ssh all I need to. Are you trying to connect to your new Mac via ssh, or connect to other machines from the Mac via ssh?
    2. when i open up an application, say safari or chrome, i want the window to fill the entire screen automatically, instead of having to drag the bottom right of the window to fill the screen. how to configure that?
    Just drag the window out to full-screen and the browser should remember and open new windows at that size in the future. There are also some utilities (one called "Right Zoom" IIRC?) that will make the zoom button (green + button) behave more like the Windows zoom button.
    3. when i close an application by clicking on the 'x' at the top left, why is it that it still appears in the list when i press command+tab?
    Applications shouldn't quit just because you close their last window, unless the application's entire user interface is contained within that window. That is the case with ALL Windows apps, since there's no global menu bar, but only in some Mac apps. This is something that always ticked me off big-time with Windows... there have been times when I carelessly closed a window I didn't need anymore, but wanted to keep using the app, and then had to wait for it to load again. That won't happen on the Mac.
    If this bothers you, just use the key combination command-Q to quit apps.
