Successful VB2008, CR2008 test deployment, but have 2 questions

Background -
Updated CR10 to CR2008 (sp3)
Updated my Windows Client app from VB6 to VB2008
SDK - Visual Studio 2008
Current Status -
Successfully deployed VB2008 app with the CR2008 Runtime using "ClickOnce" to a test Windows XP client.
I had some issues with deployment and found this thread to be most helpful
[SAP Note 1353836 - How to add Crystal Reports 2008 Runtime SP1 package as a prerequisite in a Visual Studio .NET setup project?|http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/com.sap.km.cm.docs/oss_notes_boj/sdn_oss_boj_dev/sap(bD1lbiZjPTAwMQ==)/bc/bsp/spn/scn_bosap/notes%7B6163636573733d36393736354636443646363436353344333933393338323636393736354637333631373036453646373436353733354636453735364436323635373233443330333033303331333333353333333833333336%7D.do]
Step 9 within that thread states for a project prerequisite, "Select Crystal Reports 2008 and .NET Framework 3.5."
Question 1 - My Windows XP test Client had .NET Framework 2.0 so I selected 2.0 in the Project Prerequisite. I haven't had any issues in testing reports. Any downside to using .NET Framework 2.0?
Question 2 - Within VS2008 when I "build" the project I don't get any errors or warnings. When I "publish" the project I get "'Crystal Reports 2008' could not find dependent item 'Microsoft.Data.Access.Components.2.8'" warnings.
Looking in the registry is FullInstalVer 2.81.1132.0 and Version 2.0.0. There seems to be no adverse affects deploying and testing the app. Any advice on how I can correct this to get a clean "publish" without the warnings?
Thank You!

Should not be an issue. CR 2008 ia able to handle framework 2.0 and higher (not 4.0)
Question 2 - Within VS2008 when I "build" the project I don't get any errors or warnings. When I "publish" the project I get "'Crystal Reports 2008' could not find dependent item 'Microsoft.Data.Access.Components.2.8'" warnings.

Looks like you are missing the 'Microsoft.Data.Access.Components.2.8' runtime which is a dependency. See if the following will help:

Considering Lightroom, but have some questions

Interested in taking my photography to a new level...currently have a Mac and two Cannon DSLRs. In the past I have used I photo for 'developing' however it is limiting. I have used Photoshop and even taken a class in it at a JC however I find that it is not intuitive for me and am looking for something different....Loved Illustrator when I used it many years ago doing graphic design work so not totally discouraged by Adobe products. Hear someone talking about Lightroom recently and wanted to find out a little more about it...my questions are as follows:
What are people's impressions of Lightroom? More intuitive than Photo shop?
More functionality than iPhoto?
Does Lightroom work well on the Mac? I have never used any adobe products on the mac, assuming they are similar, but have to ask the question.
Can you buy the software without using the cloud and paying monthly fees?
Thanks!

Most people love it, once they learn how it works. All editing is non-destructive and adjustments are saved to a database (catalog). You don’t save files as you do in Photoshop or iPhoto. The settings are saved automatically and applied on export.
Lightroom is more like Aperture than iPhoto. But Apple has dropped support for both apps so it’s a good time to consider Lightroom. LR6 is expected very shortly and you can take a 30 day free trial.
Yes works well on Mac OSX
Lightroom is available for outright purchase if you prefer not to subscribe to the Photography Plan ( LR+ Photoshop $9.99pm without any upfront capital outlay) however LR Mobile functionality and synchronization with iPad/iPhone is only available with a subscription.

Looking to buy but have some questions

I'm currently using a Mac Mini and Frontrow, I'm hoping to replace this with the AppleTV but have a couple of questions I hope someone can help with.
1) Can the screen saver display photos from iPhotos on the Apple TV, same
way as a Mac does.
2) I'm looking to export all my movies from EyeTV to the AppleTV format, all
my movies have descriptions in them and I know these are exported to the
AppleTV format. However does AppleTV show you this information when
you browse your movies, I know Front row doesn't
3) Can you just "copy" movies to the AppleTV or do they have to be synced,
as I have a small drive on my Macbook, it would be great to just copy them
over to the AppleTV and deleted them from my Macbook.
A lot of questions I know but would really appreciate any help

1) Can the screen saver display photos from iPhotos on the Apple TV, same
way as a Mac does.
Slightly differently, I'd say better.
2) I'm looking to export all my movies from EyeTV to the AppleTV format, all
my movies have descriptions in them and I know these are exported to the
AppleTV format. However does AppleTV show you this information when
you browse your movies, I know Front row doesn't
The tv shows some fields on the tv screen, eyetv doesn't always put these descriptions where tv can best use them, however it isn't too difficult to move them around in get info.
3) Can you just "copy" movies to the AppleTV or do they have to be synced,
as I have a small drive on my Macbook, it would be great to just copy them
over to the AppleTV and deleted them from my Macbook.
No they have to be synced. You can use an external drive for your itunes library though.

Thinking about moving to X1 platform, but have many questions.

So, for the last two months, I have been getting emails offering me a free "upgrade" to the X1 platform. My current setup:3 Tivo DVR's - two 4 tuner and one 2 tuner Mainly use one of the 4 tuner boxes and the 2 tunerStandard def cable box that is not connected, 105Mbit Internet, Xfinity Voice The Tivo's work real good, but are costly at nearly $60/month for their service Plus the 9.99 cable card fee each. My questions on X1 If I were to go to a single X1 DVR, and two X1 "Terminal Boxes" (That's what the local xfinity store called them), What do the terminal boxes use from the main DVR? To clarify, If the DVR is recording 4 channels I was told it could view one other. In a situation like that what could the Terminal boxes view at that time? Could they only see one of the 5 channels (the four recorded ones or the live one) or could they stream something else that was recorded earlier? Could they stream on demand content or streampix content? The local xfinity store said I could only have 1 X1 DVR in my household, but from what I've been reading here, several people seem to have two, so was the rep at the local store wrong? Thank you in advance for any answers or recommendations. Rick

The situation in regards to available tuners and recordings is changing rapidly. X1 DVRs just activated the 6th tuner and they placed a priority on recording over live TV. So at the moment you can record 6 programs as long your are watching one of the 6 recordings.
There are two X1 Companion boxes. The Xi3 is the more desireable Companion box but it does "steal" a tuner from the X1 DVR in order to watch live TV. Please study the comparison because it will answer your questions: http://customer.xfinity.com/help-and-support/cable-tv/x1-hub-vs-companion-box/
Multiple DVRs are allowed in most markets but some still don't. I have three but I had to pull strings. Please be aware that multiple X1 DVRs are not independent. They pool their resources. You cannot "hide" the recording list on one DVR from the other X1. You can prevent the actual playback but all X1 boxes in the house will see the record list on all DVRs.
Pricing aside, most people would agree that TiVo is a vastly superior DVR to the X1 DVR. The X1 DVRs have an almost appalling lack of basic features and flexibility. They have almost no adjustments over guide views. Ability to customize favorites is extremely limited and inflexible.
I would STRONGLY recommend that you spend more time reading in this forum. I also think that you should go to a Comcast location (or a friends house) and test X1 before you order.

I am going to buy a GX60 - but have several questions!

Hello folks,
Im a huge fan of MSI products and have decided to upgrade from my CR630 to a GX60. But I am trying to find out what upgrades I can do with regard to storage/SSDs. I keep finding mixed information and I am struggling to clarify what I am buying. The model specifically I am looking at buying is the "GX60 3CC-296UK".
So:
1) Does this have two standard 2.5" SATA bays i.e. one standard 2.5" HDD and one 2.5" SSD? Because I have found one website that seems to think it has one standard HDD and two mSata slots.
2) I have found another website which claims that it can have one standard HDD and "up to 128Gb SSD". Why is it limited to 128Gb on a particular SATA channel? Or perhaps that some websites sell this with a 128Gb SSD pre installed!?!
and
3) Usually when a device has USB3.0, it also has SATA 3. Does this laptop take advantage of the 6gb/s of SATA 3 if I did put a SSD into it? I have found another website which seems to think the laptop is only SATA 2 i.e. 3gb/s.
For anyone who has taken the time to read this, thank you for your time and would greatly appreciate anyones thoughts if they are able to assist!
Regards,
Iain

Well It arrived today and sadly I am a little disappointed.
First I have never used Windows 8 before, but couldn't even get into windows without being coerced into making an account with microsoft (not going to happen) and agreeing to terms and conditions with Norton Symantec (again, not going to happen).
So, within minutes - cheerio windows 8, hello windows 7 ultimate. So to BIOS we go! Before I could change boot priorities and what do I find...
HGST 1Tb - yeah not going to happen either.
I didn't spend all this just to be stuck with a deathstar in my laptop. It's like saving up for a BMW 5 series only to find a Renault engine.
I actually had a stopclock running for a laugh. It took 9 mins 23 seconds from opening the box to me removing the warranty sticker to rip that piece of S£%$ HDD out and replace it with a WD Black.
As for the RAM? Something generic would be nice, you know something I can buy another of. A specially made Kingston RAM module with a model number starting MSI - oh goody, so when I upgrade to 16gb I need to buy a whole new set just to get a matching pair.
MSI, I love you to bits - but this is testing my patience and better be bloody good once I get it going...
1) Get used to it. Windows will keep the windows login authentication (any hotmail.com account works btw) in windows 9 and up. It isn't going away. So have fun when windows 7 loses support in 2-3 years from now.
2) As for norton.. you could have just removed it, it is not tied to anything with MSI and really is just a standard free bloatware crap you get in any computer these days.
3) Hitachi has been purchased and fully owned by WD. Your WD Black is simply a HGST these days.
4) The MSI ram in it, is nothing more but a rebranded Kingston ValueRam, so any Valueram from kingston works as long as it uses the same specs as the laptop.
Also turn of Fast Boot in the Bios to allow the laptop to boot from the DVD, or simply press F11

Slower than slow. Not the first I know but have some questions please.

Hello fellow Verizon users. First let me tell you about my pc. It's second hand, HP Pavilion, Windows Vista, 32-bit, Windows 7, sp2. Hope this helps. My router is Gateway Westell 7500.
I have been reading the replies to others who have posted that their connections are very slow, but do not understand the replies and don't have the technical know-how to report back all of the info.
There was one link that I did click on where I typed in the IP address and it brought up my router information. All but two headings read that , more or less if you don't know what you are doing..Don't! However I did write one thing down. One was the down speed which is 3360 Kbps, and the up speed is 864 Kbps. Does this say anything about why my internet is so slow?
In task manager I noticed that there is information .... Processes, performance, CPU Usage and so forth. Although these numbers mean nothing to me, do these stats say anything about why I am having this issue? I was told at one time that the Services tab that shows a listing of the names and status of functions that are running, needs to be cleaned up. Here again, I do not know what these functions are and what they are for.
When I first signed on with Verizon High Speed Internet, everything ran fine and fast. I have talked to tech support about this and they took control over my pc, but did not fix anything.
Off of the topic, but when I would try to get help on Verizon Help Page, all I'd get is IE Cannot Display This Webpage. Called tech support and they installed Google Chrome. So what did that do? Anyway....
Also, when the Verizon Internet Security Suite is scanning while I am online, most of the websites stop responding or it takes so long to open a website that I just shut down.
I am at a loss here and getting ready to trash the thing. Could it be the router, or something else? I have cleaned up, done defragging, deleted cookies and so forth.
Thanks for reading and for any advice that someone could give to a not so technical user.

Sounds like you've done much of what would cover a slow computer. if the system, booted into either Windows Vista or Windows 7 isn't feeling slow it's most likely something up with the Internet connection. We'll sort that out for you and also work with anything that needs to be tweaked on the PC to get the most out of the service.
We've established one thing already. Your line is synchronized properly for 3Mbps service, which is 3360/864kbps. This also signifies you are on G.DMT ADSL or another ADSL1 standard. ADSL2 and ADSL2+ modes display different sync rates for the same speed.
If you could, can you supply to us a Speed Test from this website: http://web100.rit.edu:7123/ (needs Java) or for that matter, use http://www.speedtest.net/ to supply a speed test? The second site is easier to get results from as it gives you an image link. The first test is often more reliable for testing but you'll need to take a screenshot as lately they haven't been allowing Clipboard access due to tightened browser security.
In addition, if your service feels slow, does it only feel like this during the evening and night time hours or is it like this constantly, even in the morning?
Since you mentioned the machine getting really slow during a VISS scan, that makes me wonder: How much RAM is installed in your system? To find out go to the Start Menu, right click on Computer and then click on Properties. Under "Memory" it will display how much memory the system has, and if there is a certain amount of memory that can be used. Knowing that bit of information would be good too since a virus scan should not cause slow net performance unless the machine itself is loaded down. Your browser should be operating in RAM and using limited disk resources (which virus scans consume, due to Disk I/O).

Considering Airport Express purchase, but have some questions...

Hi people.
As per title. I'm considering purchasing this in the near future, but although i understand how it works, i just have a few questions...
1) The unit has a USB port correct? I have an external HD & DVD drive, scanner and printer aswell as my iPod dock running off a USB hub. In theory, i should be able to connect a USB device to the AE to get it to work wirelessly, yes? So would it be the same if i ran the USB hub off it? (USB hub has it's own power supply too).
2) I have a 2008 Aluminium Intel Mac, all up-to-date. Am i correct in thinking all i need to buy is the AE? Obviously i have the correct equipment to connect to the internet, and the Mac does have airport.
3) The unit won't be that far away from my Mac-how reliable are the connections? Do they suffer from much interference? And how secure is the connection?
Any advice or experiences welcomed!
Dan

1) - The USB port on the AX is usually a printer only port but I don't see why it would not function with ANY other USB devices. I am using a Time Capsule as the main router with a 500 GB Seagate drive and 3 printers connected (and working!) and supporting 3 AX units. You will have to find connected printers and drives via the Sys Pref ->Network menu (Browse)
2) - That should be OK. You get the advantage of having a router firewall between you and outside. FWIW, I just sold an Airport Extreme for just under $100 on the "Bay" about the price of a new AX. Lacks an audio out port tho' but supports a USB hub system and passes AirTunes
#) - Security.... once you have set up your passwords properly (big words with U/L case, symbols and numbers) it should be pretty secure to casual evesdropping. RFI - use AP Grapher (free) to see traffic on adjacent channels and choose accordingly.
Hope this makes some sort of sense.......

About to Purchase but Have 3 Questions....Help?

Hi,
I am looking at Logic Express to work with tracks imported from my 3k+ Vinyl collection (I sold off all my analog DJ equipment). I am hoping I have found my ideal program but Apple Tech suggested I asked the wizards at the boards.....so here goes.
1. Can you bring in music tracks from iTunes (either from my imported vinyl, cds or iTunes Store), and edit / improve them (change the tracks levels & pitch)? Oh and then export them back:-)
2. Can you take these tracks and sample sections of them and layer those samples back onto the tracks (or just lengthen the existing track by adding some fill)?
3. Can you have multiple tracks imported from Itunes Library at once (so you can sample and edit), or only one track at a time?
I realize these are very rudimentary questions and more typical DJ functions, but any help or advice is most appreciated. In any event, I no longer have the space for all that gear!
Thanks,
MuNgEr
G3BW, G4 PB 1.25, G4 D1.25, G5 D2.0, Alienware A51

1. You can import them and clean them up but for the most part you are to expect what you do will affect everything so....if it is a full ensemble you can't just fix the pitch in it. On the other side of the spectrum, you can apply EQ and other mastering effects to improve the quality-if applied properly.
2. Well, to get really crazy with samples you'll just want to use them as noncompressed audio, so conversion is in order. For example, you can't fade a MP3 unless you convert it first. Once again, you can't easily remove or extract instruments from a stereo mix. Just using the stereo file works great though.
3. Well, Logic should support up to 256 at once...if your machine can handle it. Actually there are ways to increase upon that (use a sampler for example). I don't think anybody here uses 256 audio tracks at once though...it's overkill.
I just realized you are asking about express..there are differences but for what you're asking....you'll have a blast.
Cheers, J

I need to restore iphoto library from time machine, but have a question

I need to rebuild my library but already have 5 libraries which are taking too much space on my HD to finish a complete rebuild. Is it safe to move those 5 libraries to the trash and restore the one from time machine???
thanks in advance,
Kari

IF nothing goes wrong - hardware - software - human - then you will be fine
Personally my photos are important to me and I'd purchase an external harddrive and backup everything to it first - then do the deletes/rebuild etc
Then I would continue using the new EHD for a second backup using a clone package (Carbon Copy Cloner or SUperDuper)

Thinking of getting my FIRST MAC, attracted to iMovie, but have a question

I have a Canon DC210 that records my movies onto mini-DVD. If I record in "Video mode", then I am able to take out my mini-DVD and play it directly into most DVD players and CPUs with DVD capabilities. I believe the format of the mini-DVD is a VOB file. But I am not sure if it is any type of file type at all really, since it is basically just a DVD (albeit mini). So my question is this: If I were to go out and buy a Mac, mainly for iMovie, would my mini-DVD's be compatible with iMovie? i.e. would I be able to stick this mini-DVD into the Mac and get started using iMovie?
PS. My camcorder also has a recording option of "VR mode" but I found out the hard way that this results in a "VRO" file format, which is a new, largely unsupported file format.

Two things:
1. Never put a miniDVD into a slot-loading Mac such as a laptop! It'll get stuck inside, and the Mac will have to go to a Mac specialist (expensive!) to be dismantled and have the disc removed! So miniDVDs can only go into horizontal tray-loading Macs, such as a big MacPro floorstander.
2. iMovie can't normally natively handle the files from all standard-definition miniDVDs; they'd have to be descrambled using other software first, such as Handbrake (click on that blue link) or MPEG Streamclip. The output of those programs, which read .VOBs, can then be imported into iMovie. iMovie '08 can handle AVCHD, but - apparently - can't handle hi-def miniDVDs. See Apple's statement about 'compatible' camcorders, which does include some DVD models ..here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1014#4
..Note that the Canon DC 220 and 230 are shown as being compatible.
P.S: Note that "..New, basic Mac desktop system "Off the shelf" as sold at Best Buy .." doesn't actually mean much here ..is that a vertical-screen iMac (if so, which model?) or d'you mean a cheese-grater-looking PowerMac/MacPro, or what, exactly..?

Power supply is missing for Satellite P205D-S7474 but have a question...

... I have other Power Supplies that can give the right voltage but after trying to find a photo of the original P/S to check the voltage polarity and plug by diferent means I've failed in doing so. That's the reason for asking here for help. Any site link with the correct info or photo generated and posted here by any user will do. Thanks in advance for any help with this issue. PS. A few times tried to specify the model and/or serial # for the laptop at the Toshiba site but always got a message stating that there was an error in the supplied info. ???

Satellite P205D-S7479 - close enough
The spec calls for PA3290U-3ACA. I think the picture shows center to be +.

Possibly moving from a Lenovo y50 to a gs60 pro but have a question.

Hello everyone.
I have a Lenovo y50 touch that is about to be past its return date friday, I love the laptop but sadly there are 2 things wrong with it that are bad enough to make me want another computer.
The first thing is the screen, I have adjusted the color as well as I can and it is still mediocre at best.
Second thing is, you can not use the HDMI out with the gtx 860m, it will only use the Intel graphics. Thus making the idea of the laptop a desktop replacement impossible, that and the terrible screen ruin the laptop.
My main question is if you hook HDMI cable (or the display link) to a monitor will the laptop allow you to use the graphics card for display?
If I go into my nVidia display settings when I have HDMI connected it will not show the external monitor, only the intel software shows it.
I have a week till Friday to fill for an RMA and I would like to get both laptops to compare beforehand. But if the gs60 pro will not be able to function as a true desktop replacement then there is no point in spending the extra cash.
Here is the model I am looking at.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00JKCHT1C/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER
Also what do you guys love/hate the most of the gs60 line?
Thank you!

You can't change the design of external display port.
For GS60, the HDMI port is connected with the Intel Graphics, thus you can only adjust the display settings by using Intel Graphics Properties.

Nano in the washer died so I'm probably getting another but have a question

If I buy another nano will the new one download the songs we have on the computer from the old nano?
Do I just install the new one and let it do it's thing and hopefully it will load the songs on the computer?
help?

I'll check them out. I'm in Ontario so I checked this site
http://irepair.ca
After I told them that it had been put thru the wash and wasn't turning on or anything they said it would cost more to repair than to replace. I then wondered if it was just the battery but they replied and said if it doesn't come on at all, then the whole thing is cooked. They said that if it was the battery, it would still turn on (or show some signs of life).
I'll check out the link you provided too though!! and thanks for telling me the new one will download the songs already on the computer
Thanks!

Need a new Apple id for my daughter, but have a question first.

My daughter had an ipod touch and we used my wife's apple id to put songs on it.
Now we just bought her a new iphone and think its time she had her own apple id. If she creates one, can we still put her music from her ipod onto her phone?
Thanks for any help.

Hi CMoe,
If the music purchased for your daughter is housed in the same iTunes Library that your music is in, and the same library that she will be putting her purchases in (i.e., a single iTunes library on a single computer), then she can download any music in that library to her devices.
My husband and I share a single iTunes Library on his Macbook Pro. He logs onto iTunes and buys stuff. I log onto iTunes and buy stuff. All of the music in our library is set up to go into Smart Playlists so we don't have all the music on everything. I have smart Playlists for Christmas, for my Nano, for my husband's iPod, for my iPad, etc.
When we plug in our various devices for syncing, we go to the Music tab and tell it what Playlists we want loaded onto that particular device.
Since music isn't updated, there really is no need to know or use the purchasers ID (unless a re-download was needed). The only thing that I have found that requires me to use his ID is updating apps.
So, if you all are sharing the same Library, then she can continue to get any music you purchased for her when she syncs her device to that Library.
Hope this helps!
Cheers,
GB

I am looking to buy an imac but have some questions...

Is it possible to use "windows only" software on any mac? I have some photo editing software that I use that is windows only.
Thanks!
Kari

As Duane mentioned yes you can use Boot Camp which is part of Leopard to boot your machine to either Leopard or Windows. Again as Duane mentioned you will need a license of Windows to do it. By using Parallels or VM Ware's Fusion these allow you to run Windows inside of Leopard, again you need a license of Windows to install. Personally I use Fusion, the performance on my iMac is faster than my new new Windows notebook supplied from work. The main advantage of Parallels or Fusion is you don't need to turn off your machine and reboot into a different OS.
Depending on the Windows software you are running you may find a Mac equivilant and rather than investing in Parallels or Fusion you can invest in that and run everything in Leopard's native enviorment.
If you have a Apple store close by drop in and they can show you exactly what I've described.
