Suggestion for a backup program w/ my specific setup:

I'm looking for a 3rd part program to backup an external HD (connected via FW800). Here is my situaiton:
I have an intel iMac 24 IN running Mac OS 10.6. I have hooked up an external HD via FW800 dedicated to my iTunes library. As it hovers near 300GB, I had to take it off my MacHD and put it on the external. I want to back it up for obvious reasons. I already backup my MacHD via time machine to a networked time capsule. I want to backup the External HD as well. My 2 choices for destination drives are:
1. Time Capsule connected VIA Ethernet
or
2. another Hard Disk connected to my network via Ethernet. This HD has no OS on it, and is simply used to store video files that I wish to share among my computers.
I tried Carbon Copy Cloner, and per the FAQ, it is not designed to sync to networked volumes that do not run an OS.
Please let me know if you suggest another program that can help me solve this problem.
Thank you!

If there's room on the TC's internal HD, that's the simplest solution. Just go to TM Preferences > Options, and remove the external HD from the exclusion list.
Once it's backed-up, you can, if you want, free up some space on the TC by deleting all the backups of the library when it was on your internal HD. See #12 in the Frequently Asked Questions *User Tip,* also at the top of the +Time Machine+ forum.

Any suggestions for an animation program using photographs that can be incorporated into iMovie or Final Cut express?

The MTS files will always be grayed out. Do not drill down into the folder structure. Select the top level of the AVCHD folder structure. If this is a hard drive it may take a very long time to load. People have reported 20 minutes to half an hour.
Other possible problems, conflicts with other software like Perian. Also if there is mixed media on the drive; media in different formats can make the directory unreadable. What are the exact specifications of your media? What settings are you using in FCE?

Looking for good backup program

sorry, i fail to understand. if your music is on the external, changes or new music would be done on/going to the external. so when the drive remounts what will be there to recognize ?
do you have a separate library on the external and your startup disk ? or did you split one library, partly on the internal and the rest on the external ?
also, why are you posting in the time machine forum (TM, incidentally, is a backup program) and not in the iTunes forum ?

Need suggestion for "hourly reservation" program

I'm using classic ASP.
I will have multiple rooms and the rooms can be reserved for various hours in the day i.e. 2:00-4:00pm and 6:00-8:00 pm.
My thought is a table with each column representing an hour, and then changing the background color if that hour is reserved. If I loop through the recordset of all reservations for that room...I guess this is where I'm stuck. What's the best way to know if 2, 3, 4, 6, and 8 should be colored. I don't want to have 24 fields in a database (representing each hour). Should I loop through the recordset before each room's row is written, and maybe use an array to show which hours are reserved? I may be missing a completely easier way to do this. Any suggestions?

Hi,
I am from chenna-Indiai. I am planning to take up this SAP Corporate Master Program. But in Hedelberg University there are Two different programs similar to this - MSc Science(approx-10,000 Euros) and Msc Computerscience(approx-10,000 Euros), Can anyone say the difference.?Also i need to know if this both is similar to SAP COrporate Master Program.
I also can NOT see any course which come under SAP Corporate Masters which costs 40,000 Euros,So which course you are talking about?Could you please advice me in just throwing different options. and Costs. I have also tried hitting some of the links given in these blogs,for some i can see in english but for rest no hope.

Suggestions for document scanning program/workflow

I am in need of a program/workflow for scanning a variety of mixed text/image media, including books, government and financial documents, university assignments, etc., which will at minimum allow one to crop and adjust the bitonal threshold, and produce djvubind files with OCR data. I have originally used a custom bash script to implement a scanimage - GIMP - djvubind + tesseract workflow, but it was inconvenient and djvubind was buggy in integrating tesseract (despite sending a bug report that was resolved). I also tried scanimage - scantailor/scantailor-cli - djvubind + tesseract, but scantailor had editing limitations and of course the OCR bugs were still an issue. My latest approach is gscan2pdf, a program that does properly integrate with djvulibre and tesseract, but the program is very buggy and therefore painful to use on a regular basis - for example, I have to manually verify every page twice (since sometimes it does not invoke OCR on certain pages, and sometimes it does not export all pages to the djvu file).
Ideally, it would probably be possible to achieve the benefits of both automation and a plethora of editing capabilities, while reducing redundancy, by some sort of GIMP plugin/extension. Any ideas?

Hi Referee06,
Thanks for getting back to me.
I do have a few more suggestions that we can try.
If you have a firewall or anti virus protection running, try disabling them and reboot the computer. Once the computer is back on, attempt to use the Solution Center again.
If you are still having issues, try running the HP Print and Scan Doctor.
Let me know if you see any error codes or messages.
Thanks again for your time.

Need Suggestion for SRH Heidelberg program of SAP masters

HI ,
There are two SAP masters program available in the SRH Heidelberg University of Applied Science.However, the masters of computer science which has specialization in SAP costs 10,000 euros and the SAP corporate masters program costs 40,000 euros. I am planning to join the Masters of computer science program which provides internship. I have tried to find the difference between these two program. The only difference I could find was that the two certifications that are offered in SAP corporate masters program (SAP certified associate) from SAP education and TERP10 certification are not available with masters of computer science program and also there are some differences in the study model. As there is not much clarity on the differences between the two program available anywhere on internet. I would like to know if you or anyone on this network forum would be able to answer me by letting me know the difference between these programs and is the Master of computers science from this university helpful for freshers who wants to make their career in SAP.
Regards,
Ashish

Suggestions for the interactive guide

I have been using FIOS TV service now for several months, and seen several iterations of the guide come through. I have a number of issues I would like to suggest for improvements.
First a suggestion about DVR and show recording. I have 2 DVRs, as we record a lot of TV and need the 4 tuners. I love that I can access recordings from either DVR as I want. However, it would be really great if I could just have a single schedule of shows set to record and let the two DVR's figure out what should record where based on the availability of tuners in the DVR's which would not produce conflicts.
I essentially need to put together my own matrix in order to figure out what set to record on which DVR based on when shows air. It would be great if the DVRs could talk to each other and intelligently figure out where to record.
A big issue I have encountered is that sometimes only part of a show will record. The biggest issue has been because for whatever reason, CBS's "Person of Interest" has only recorded 30 minutes of the show, and only the latter 30 minutes. There was no indication on the scheduled recordings view that the show would only partially record, it just showed that it would record. For most shows at least, they will either re-air the show, or I can get caught up on one of several streaming services. This is the only show that is not available as a re-run or on ANY streaming service.
If a show is going to only partially record, it should be clearly indicated, and it actually should just not record - it should show to me that there is an issue or conflict with another show recording into the 1st half of this show which would prevent a full recording. This is a huge bug in the recording logic that should be fixed.
From the menu guides, I would really like the option to set the default menu starting point. I do not way ANY pay preview, or pay for any on demand content. I have never done that with any TV provider I have had, and I don't plan to start now, the fact that the menu always defaults to searching on demand is annoying.
The entire menu experience feels not as if its designed to allow me to easily or quickly navigate and make the changes or selections I want, but instead it constantly wants me to basically buy a movie or TV show. There are plenty of ways to design an interface which allows you to promote your pay services and also allow me to get into the areas of the menu I need in an intuitive manner.
I do like that the DVR remembers some of my recent searches, a nice feature. It would be great for homes with multiple DVRs to allow the DVR's to act more as a "single unit" and share that information between the units so I don't have to go figuring out which DVR I previously searched for something. The search menu should also allow you to set some basic filters - when I go into search, 99% of the time I am going to search for something specific - the title of a movie or TV show. The search results should show me just that, I don't need to see actors or all the other options when I search by default - I should be able to go into advanced search to get broader or complex with what I am searching for. I should also be able to turn off searching in certain areas - like pay-per-view or on-demand options.
P.S. - the spell check component of the post message feature should really have "FIOS" and "DVR" in the dictionary.

Taking recommendations for good sync/backup program (other than Time Machine)

Hello everyone,
I'm on the lookout for a good file synchronization program (other than Time Machine) which I can use to make one-way backups of specific subdirectories. The ideal program would do the following:
1) Do one-way synchronization of user-selectable subdirecotries within a directory A to directory B either on same hard drive or on external hard drive
2) Can be set up to make sure that B has the exact subdirectories/files as A, deleting any that are not present in A and adding anything that is added to A or anything that has been changed in A
3) Will not generate useless junk files that require me to manually clean up after them
4) Will not alter files and directories in A in any way
5) Will be inexpensive
6) Will not interfere with Time Machine, which I already use to backup multiple volumes to a single external hard drive.
I checked the App store first, but was disappointed that all three apps had mixed reviews, and none had recent reviews attesting to their efficacy (which I always interpret as a bad sign).
I also did a quick search for third-party programs, but their websites will only have good reviews, so naturally I'm checking here first.
Basically, I want this program so that I can use it to sychronize files to my Cloud (Box, Google Docs, Dropbox) directory to share with my friends, and also to make redundant backups of sensitive files to additional external hard drives not being utilized by Time Machine.
Any input would be greatly appreciated.

CCC can be set up to copy just selected directories, or the entire disk. It does not need to make a full clone (although a full clone is a good way to have*something* that functions in case of emergency).
I take the approach of using a tool that can do much more than simple because it can do *that much more* in a pinch.
I gave my best advice, and have not investigated in more specialized tools.
Good luck to you.

Best backup program for iPhone 3GS??

I am looking for the BEST backup program for the above - not only a program which makes backups of the programs, but ALO the contents of the programs - of everything! Any recommendations, thanks!

I agree with the first reply UNLESS your iPhone is not being backed up by iTunes because it gets stuck. I actually just posted a question in re to this problem. For all you Apple owners I know, I should've bought an Apple. Well, I've owned three iMacs in the last 3 years and they are fabulous computers- u just didn't have 1300 laying around this time so I got a pretty powerful PC for 600.
Anyway, my point being iTunes works great as a backup app for the iPhone. I just think my issue is I'm using Windows 7 64-bit with iTunes 64-bit and there might be some glitch because as soon as I click the 'x' besides "Backing up iPhone..,." it syncs fine, I just don't have a backup. Unfortunately I didn't get the Apple protection plan for the iPhone, but I doubt it's the phone anyway. Thanks.

I am looking for a backup drive for my macbook pro, any suggestions?

I have a macbook pro and I am looking for a backup drive. There are so many out there and I would like suggestions for which one to purchase. Thanks!

Pretty much any drive will work, but for a laptop, you might like to get a portable drive (doesn't require that you connect it to power) with USB3. Thunderbolt drives are also available, but they're more expensive and no faster than USB3 for a single hard drive.
I personally like the Lacie rugged series: http://store.apple.com/us/product/H9377ZM/A/lacie-1tb-rugged-hard-drive-triple-u sb-30-5400-rpm?fnode=5f
If you shop around you should be able to get it a little cheaper than Apple's prices.

Hi Mark
Was just looking for the answer to this exact question and I just found something that worked for me so don't know if it might be of use to you or you might have already solved your problem! Basically when I was in iMovie and I clicked to import movies from the computer into iMovie and I found the clip I wanted to import, there are a few options. I think it asked which Event I wanted to add it to but most importantly it asked me what file size I wanted...I had originally been clicking Large because it advised me to because it reduces the file size...but just on a chance there I selected 'Full - Original' for size and it imported perfectly into iMovie in it's original vertical form!
Hope this helps!
