SSD: for OS and apps, or for samples and audio?

I'm thinking about adding a 256 gig solid state drive; I currently have two 1TB drives. I tend to use large sample-based instruments - Play, Ivory, Vienna, Kontakt, Omnisphere, etc. - but not particularly great track counts. If I used it as the startup disk, 256 gigs would be way more than enough (because audio and video files are on other disks.) As a sample disk it would hold my most demanding and most often used libraries.
What would be the most efficient use of that SSD speed - OS and apps, or streaming samples and audio?

Thanks for the recommendation on size. I found a great answer to my question about file locations at:
http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=12293000#12293000
Using the advanced Options (control click the active admin account) in the accounts pane in System Preferences, one can specify a new location for the home folder. Very practical and way easier than trying to go into all the app's libraries to tell them where their files are.
Now I can just copy my home folder to the internal drive, and delete it on the SSD. After a restart, this new location will be recognized as the correct home folder.

Looking for a journaling app that looks like and old fashion journal and alowws dictation and editing

Looking for a journaling app the allows dictation and editing and would look like and old fashion journal book that I can put in my iBook shelf.

You won't be able to put an app in iBooks. The only things you can put in iBooks are eBooks and PDFs. As far as narrowing down the list of possible apps, what ones have you looked at already when you searched the app store?

I have an iPhone 4 and getting a iPod touch for my child, my question is whether to create separate account or have a shared account? I want to share some music and apps but not all and I also want her to be able to iMessage and face time with her own iPod and own account . What's the best way to go?

You can use one Apple ID for purchasing (App Store & iTunes Store) and shared with your child whereas your child uses a different Apple ID for Game Center, e-mail, FaceTime, iMessage. Even on iCloud there you'll get an extra 5GB free.

I have over 20 songs and apps on my phone and when i connect it to my computer none will transfer over into my Itunes on my computer this is the first time this has done this and i dont want to loose anything

I have over 20 songs and apps on my phone and when i connect it to my computer none will transfer over into my Itunes on my computer this is the first time this has done this and i dont want to loose anything, everything is up to date so im not sure why this is happening

The computer must be authorized to the same account you have on your iPhone. Connect the phone and choose Transfer Purchases from the iTunes File menu.

Packager and App Store for Mac

HI guys,
With the app store for mac.... All we have to do is just have to create a "macintosh projector" in flash, convert to a zip file and
then just submit to apple as you do with the ipa files using application loader tool. Is it really as easy as this or is there some
massive gotcha.

There are two gotchas, at least. First, the app cannot have PowerPC code in it, so you have to use a utility that strips out PPC code from the app. The other thing is that the whole preparing for the store stage is tricky, regardless of what tool made the app. Read carefully the steps shown in the Apple pages for how to prepare apps. It's a lot of work in Terminal.

HT1918 How do I change the I-cloud and app password for this device to my husband's existing account?

Can I change the I-tune username and password for this I-pad to the username and password used on my husband's I-pad?

You can log out of the account that is used for purchasing content by tapping on the id in Settings > iTunes & App Store and you can then log back in with a different account - any content that was downloaded by the currently logged in account will remain tied to that account, so only that account will be able to download updates to its apps.
If you use iTunes Match, automatic downloads or redownload an account's past purchases then you may tie your iPad to that account for 90 days : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4627 - so you won't be able to any of those three things on a different account until the 90 days have completed
For iCloud you can remove the existing account via Settings > iCloud > Delete Account

What's the best way for a web app to handle logins and sessions?

I'm deploying in JBoss, using JSF. As is often the case, I keep User information in an entity bean. My question is, what's the best way to handle this bean?
My inclination is to create a login page with a LoginBackingBean atached to it. When the user attempts to log in, it will see if there is a User entity bean that corresponds to the given name and password. If there is no User bean that matches, obviously we show an informative error screen.
But what happens if there is a valid user?
In the plain old Servlet world (without EJB / J2EE) I would just put the User object (it's an object, not an EJB) into the HttpSession, and I would create a Filter that would check for the presence of that User object, and I would map the filter to something like /members/*, and that would be it. I would use Hibernate to persist the User object, and there would also be a filter that creates a Hibernate session and stores it in the Request so that the User object would work and persist.
How do I do this within the J2EE / EJB world?
My first thought would be to just do the same thing. Install the User bean into the HttpSession, and create a filter and do all the same stuff. Is that the right way to do it? It would work pretty well with JSF because I could just access things in the normal JSF way: #{user.firstName} would find the "user" object in the HttpSession scope. So that's good.
One question that comes up from that is if the user makes some change to the User object that is in the Session scope, will the EJB automatically do the right thing and make those changes persistent? Is there anything else I need to do?
I'm new to the EJB world, but from what I can see so far, it seems like it's the best way to think about a web application.
Thanks

hi ,
i think the best way is to create java beans ,in that bean call your EJB ,
and check the validation over there.
and make that bean scope to session.
in each and everypage try to check the session ,if it is not valid then forward to your login page...
otherwise continue to give access to him like guest

iBooks Author is for your computer... There is no "iBooks Author for iPad".
iBooks version 2 is in the App Store, for your iPad, and is required if you expect to be able to preview an ibook on your iPad from iBooks Author.
Don't let the ad tags confuse you ....iBooks Author produces ibooks FOR consumption only on iPad, not iPhone or touch.

Blend for Visual Studio's HTML/CSS WYSIWYG editor only usable for Windows 8 apps, NOT for web apps?

Hi there,
In the process of learning Visual Studio (VS) and ASP.NET, I initially thought that I could use Blend for VS's seemingly great HTML/CSS WYSIWYG editor to visually design the HTML pages and CSS for a web app developped with VS, whether it be with ASP.NET MVC
or Django (using Python Tools for Visual Studio).
But now it dawned on me that Blend for VS seems to only be meant to design HTML/CSS for native Windows
8 apps, and not
web apps.
Can someone confirm that this is indeed the case?
Thanks a lot in advance for clarifying this point for me.
PS: Maybe this a dumb newbie question, but from the outside, it seems rather counter-intuitive to offer a top-notch tool for web
standards (HTML/CSS) edition (Blend for VS), all integrated with a top-notch tool for web development (VS) but prohibiting the web developer community to leverage the productivity gains of both
the former and the integration. This is especially puzzling given that the latest components of the ASP framework (MVC, SPA projects):
- Pushes for reliance on HTML elements and CSS instead of ASP elements and Skin files;
- VS apparently also does not provide a visual design page view for ASP.MVC projects, which is sure to make many development teams wary of migrating from web forms to MVC.

I believe this the case, but I'm not familiar with asp.net development. As you point out: html is html so you can edit and copy the code. That said, the Windows Store apps forums are specifically about writing Windows Store apps. For discussion
of writing ASp.net apps and the best tools to use for that please post in the asp.net development forums on
http://asp.net.

iPhone User Guide (For iOS 4.2 and 4.3 Software)

In order to share music and apps but not calls and messages, should two iphones have different or the same apple id?

My sister started an itunes account when we were younger and she first got an ipod. Later I got an ipod touch, so we thought it was smarter that I use the same account so we can share apps and music. Since then my sister has gotten an iphone, my mom has gotten an ipad, and i have kept my ipod, with all of our devices on the same account. Now I got an iphone, and im wondering if i should keep the same account or if now is a great time to get a new one. Im not sure if you can have both iphones on one account without confusion with messages and whatnot, and likewise im not sure if you can have two accounts with shared purchases. Any advice?

Create a NEW account/ID for her using these instructions. Make sure you follow the instructions. Many do not and if you do not you will not get the None option. You must use an email address that you have not used with Apple before. Make sure you specify a birthdate that results in being at least 13 years old

Use the new ID on her iPod but only for:

Settings>FaceTime
Settings>GameCenter
and Settings>iCloud if you want her to have separate Contacts Calendar and some other things.
Continue to use the same/common Apple ID for Settings>iTunes and App stores so you can share purchases.
