Sync question (Newbie warning)

Hi,
  I have a small question regarding pacman. I installed from [unsupported] rtorrent (rs_rtorrent) and libtorrent (librtorrent) since the packages in the [community] are not up to date (I need the bleeding edge because of some stupid torrent site). I have now few questions:
1) Let's say the packages in [community] got updated for even a newer version, since I don't have them installed I would get no notification, right?
2) Even if the packages in [unsupported] got updated I would still get no notification since I only have the .pkg on my own machine without any sync to a central database.
What is the most simple way (newbie-wise) to keep package in [unsupported] updated, other than repeatedly checking the rtorrent site/AUR site (through web browser) for updates? Can pacman do this for me?

It might also help if you posted comments describing your problem on the aur.
Thanks for the solution, I subscribed to my packages at AUR.
No problem with AUR whatsoever, just wondered about solution to the "notification about updates" problem.

  • FCP Sound Syncing Question

    Hey Everyone,
    I have an audio syncing question for you. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
    I am cutting in FCP. I logged and captured my footage and with timecode breaks, etc. the tape was cut up, and I was left with eight files, let's call them Footage1-Footage8. I have completed my cut of the piece using the in-camera audio that was linked to the video on the DV tape that I imported. Our sound guy in the field used a DAT recorder to record the production audio and apparently captured the timecode to the audio files, so that it matches the video (i.e. the DAT recorder and our cameras - DVX-100s had synced timecode during the shoot). The DVD he gave me has 20 audio files as .wav, let's call them Audio1-Audio20. My question is, now that I have finished my cut, I would like to replace the current audio tracks with the production audio. How can I sync the audio with the video and replace it in what I've cut. Or perhaps I can't, in which case - how can I sync them up and THEN cut, but I'd really rather have to not do that, lol!
    Thanks for your advice!

    Sorry about the long winded post, though.
    I guess my real question, summarized is - is there a way to sync separately recorded production audio (that has timecode) with the footage that I shot (that has the same timecode as the audio, but also has in camera audio that accompanies the video track - I would imagine I can just "cut" the extra audio tracks, however).
    I'm at my bay trying to figure this out, and I've got nothing, and the people I work for don't want to spring for that bwf2xml program you were talking about What's the emote for pulling one's hair out?

  • Ical newbie sync question

    I have a macbook 2 GHz intel core 2 duo, with 2gb of ram, running mac os x 10.7.1.
    I'm a long-time mac user, but total ical newbie....in that I've never really used this feature much in the past.
    What I'd **like to be able to do is use ical on my laptop & sync it to my [semi] smart phone, a samsung SGH-A877.
    *SPECIFICALLY* I need appointments made on my cell phone to be sync'd to ical, and vice/versa, and then be able to print out a 'report' from ical as to the month's activity. I'm sure this is very very seamless for iphone users, but the buy in $$ for an iphone is prohibitive.
    So, I need to know 2 things:
    1. Can I do what I want to do with my existing phone? and if not...
    2. Can I do what I want to do with a *different phone, but not iphone or any of the other top drawer big bucks phones?
    Thanks.

    Entourage only syncs to iCal with the "Entourage" calendar. So, in iCal, you can have several other calendars in addition to the "Entourage" calendar, and Entourage will never touch them.
    So, if you download your husband's calendar from icalx, you will not lose it when Entourage syncs w/ iCal.
    Also, you will be able to publish your "Entourage" calendar to icalx (via iCal) and he will be able to subscribe to it in iCal no problem.
    However, it is going to be more work for you b/c you can't set iCal to subscribe to a calendar and have that same subscribed calendar sync w/ Entourage. Out of the box this option isn't available.
    So, as far as free options go, you could:
    1) Use iCal for calendaring.
    2) Manually drag in the .ics file into Entourage each time.
    3) Create an applescript to assist with this (one idea would be create a "husband" category in Entourage, and use an applescript to import the .ics, assigning it the "husband" category. Each time you import a new .ics file the applescript deletes the old items in the "husband" category).
    If you are willing to invest some time in it, applescript is worthwhile to learn and you will find excellent help in the applescript forums.

  • Apple TV Newbie Syncing Question/

    I'm getting an Apple TV tomorrow, and I'm just wondering if the only way to sync it with iTunes is over my network, or can I do it as I would with my iPhone or iPod?
    Thanks

    I've had this ATV for a couple of years. I did a 3.0 update and saw some of my content from iTunes that was on my ATV disappear.
    I updated my software to 3.0.1 and then checked content - no change. I decided to disconnect ATV from iTunes (in settings on ATV) and reconnect. This had the effect of wiping all content off of my ATV.
    In trying to re sync over wireless, my old problem of the airport wireless dropping the connection has reappeared. This only seems to happen on the initial sync. I concluded the simplest way (and the fastest would be to sync the first time over a hardwire connection.
    You mentioned that I need a cross over cable. Is this different than a standard ethernet network cable? When connecting with a standard network cable and not connected to a TV at the same time ATV does not show a green light and doesn't show up in iTunes.

  • ITunes Sync Question

    I have some iTunes sync issues when iphone 6+ is plugged in as far as not seeing Music on iTunes under the Summary list. And when I select Sync it gives no choice to select only certain items and says phone will be wiped.
    I already put all the music on iphone a short time ago, and when I selected Music under Summary before all music showed and let me pick what I wanted to sync.
    "Are you sure you want to remove existing music, movies, TV shows, books, and tones from this iPhone and sync with this iTunes library?
    Music, movies, TV shows, books, and tones synced to “Ken's iPhone” from other iTunes libraries will be removed and items will be synced from this iTunes library."
    It has done this and went back to normal, now doing it again. I never synched from any other library. A confusing UI for newbies--:)
    My iTunes library contains no purchased songs from iTunes. And when I check the Sync no options come up to just select certain songs. Only all.

    thanks for the reply
    the summary is same one you are talking about
    if you are saying go to itunes music library before plugging in phone, i cant just select songs that way. there is no option to do that
    when i plug in phone and see the "Summary" there is a list below it to include music. If I click on Music no music shows. The Sync All area is greyed out and you see "Entire MUsic Library" is checked by default. If I check the Sync Music box that is when I get the warning it will wipe all music, vides etc and sync all too phone. I don't get offerd the choice to select only certain songs. Same thing on movies. iPhotos works ok and lets me select certain photos, albums.
    I did have this working originally as I got all my music, pics, vids on phone. Maybe I changed something in settings. Am new to this.
    On the Summary page under Options I have "Sync only checked songs and videos" and "Manually manage music and videos" checked.

  • HT1719 I have music on my Shuffle and want to transfer it onto iTunes but when I go to Sync it, it warns me that all the music on my Shuffle will be deleted and replaced with what's on my iTunes. I have a new mac-mini and my old computer was an HP.

    Can anyone tell me how to tranfer the music that is on my Shuffle to iTunes? When I go to Sync it, it gives me a warning that all the music on my Shuffle will be deleted and replaced with what is on my iTunes. I recently changed computers from an HP to a Mac-Mini and did not transfer/sync the itunes prior to getting rid of my itunes. So the music I had on itunes does not appear in my library. Help please!

  • Log file sync question

    Metalink note 34592.1 has been mentioned several times in this forum as well as elsewhere, notably here
    http://christianbilien.wordpress.com/2008/02/12/the-%E2%80%9Clog-file-sync%E2%80%9D-wait-event-is-not-always-spent-waiting-for-an-io/
    The question I have relates to the stated breakdown of 'log file sync' wait event:
    1. Wakeup LGWR if idle
    2. LGWR gathers the redo to be written and issue the I/O
    3. Time for the log write I/O to complete
    4. LGWR I/O post processing
    5. LGWR posting the foreground/user session that the write has completed
    6. Foreground/user session wakeup
    Since the note says that the system 'read write' statistic includes steps 2 and 3, the suggestion is that the difference between it and 'log file sync' is due to CPU related work on steps 1, 4, 5 and 6 (or on waiting on the CPU run queue).
    Christian's article, quoted above, theorises about 'CPU storms' and the Metalink note also suggests that steps 5 and 6 could be costly.
    However, my understanding of how LGWR works is that if it is already in the process of writing out one set of blocks (let us say associated with a commit of transaction 'X' amongst others) at the time a another transaction (call it transaction 'Y') commits, then LGWR will not commence the write of the commit for transaction 'Y' until the I/Os associated with the commit of transaction 'X' complete.
    So, if I have an average 'redo write' time of, say, 12ms and a 'log file sync' time of, say 34ms (yes, of course these are real numbers :-)) then I would have thought that this 22ms delay was due at least partly to LGWR 'falling behind' in it's work.
    Nonetheless, it seems to me that this extra delay could only be a maximum of 12ms so this still leaves 10ms (34 - 12 -12) that can only be accounted for by CPU usage.
    Clearly, my analsys contains a lot of conjecture, hence this note.
    Can anybody point me in the direction of some facts?

    Can anybody point me in the direction of some facts?It depends on what you mean by facts - presumably only the people who wrote the code know what really happens, the rest of us have to guess.
    You're right about point 1 in the MOS note: it should include "or wait for current lgwr write and posts to complete".
    This means, of course, that your session could see its "log file sync" taking twice the "redo write time" because it posted lgwr just after lgwr has started to write - so you have to wait two write and post cycles. Generally the statistical effects will reduce this extreme case.
    You've been pointed to the two best bits of advice on the internet: As Kevin points out, if you have lgwr posting a lot of processes in one go it may stall as they wake up, so the batch of waiting processes has to wait extra time; and as Riyaj points out - there's always dtrace (et al.) if you want to see what's really happening. (Tanel has some similar notes, I think, on LFS).
    If you're stuck with Oracle diagnostics only then:
    redo size / redo synch writes for sessions will tell you the typical "commit size"
    redo size + redo wastage / redo writes for lgwr will tell you the typical redo write size
    If you have a significant number of small processes "commit sizes" per write (more than CPU count, say) then you may be looking at Kevin's storm.
    Watch out for a small number of sessions with large commit sizes running in parallel with a large number of sessions with small commit sizes - this could make all the "small" processes run at the speed of the "large" processes.
    It's always worth looking at the event histogram for the critical wait events to see if their patterns offer any insights.

  • Aperture 3 library syncing question

    I want to move to Aperture, but I need some advice first. (I have considered Aperture in the past, but my expectations and demands were unrealistic. Now I am trying to be as realistic as possible about what I want from Aperture.)
    I have learned that Aperture 3 in fact supports syncing libraries between computers. Before I attempt this however I want to find out from you people whether what I want to do will work.
    First let me describe my situation.
    I have Mac Pro which contains the following types of files dating from 1997:
    RAW + JPEG pairs from my DSLR, mirrorless, and compact cameras
    JPEG solo images from DSLR, mirrorless, and compact cameras
    TIFFs, PSDs, and JPEGs from film scans
    TIFFs, PSDs, and JPEGs that are saved, edited versions of the above (edited files have the same filename as the original, plus a few letters added to indicate which changes have been made; s = sharpened, a = converted with ACR, c = cropped, w = web resolution, etc.)
    AVI, MOV, MP4, and MTS (AVCHD) movies shot with various digital cameras
    There are 160,383 files in total, although the number of photographs is probably less than 100,000 due to RAW + JPEG pairs counting as two files. The total space used is ~1.2TB. The files are on an internal 2TB RAID volume, which is constantly backed up to an external Time Machine RAID.
    The files are all organized into folders by year up to 2009, and inside each year's folder are sub-folders that organize the pictures by event. All photos taken after 2009 are organized either by event or by subject matter, depending on which seemed more relevant to the particular shoot. I have been using Adobe Bridge to sort them. After they are sorted, I use a wonderful gem called ChronoSync to sync the JPEGs only (but not the RAWs, TIFFs, PSDs, or movies) to my MacBook Pro. That way I have my photos with me in the field in case I want to make some prints, upload to Flickr/Facebook, etc.
    However, I am feeling many limitations of this workflow -- hence why I am considering Aperture.
    Here are the main things I want to do with Aperture. Please tell me if this will work, and what any gotcha's might be.
    I want to have a "master" Aperture library on the Mac Pro. I will add all my existing files into the master library in a 'referenced' fashion -- they will remain where they are in the current directory structure on the 2TB RAID.
    I want to also maintain a "satellite" Aperture library on the MacBook Pro that contains only the JPEG versions of these files. I would use ChronoSync to copy over all the referenced JPEGs such that they exist in the same places in the directory structure of the laptop as they do on the desktop (i.e. /Users/me/Pictures/etc.), so that hopefully when Aperture looks for them it can find them. (I am guessing that I would create the "satellite" library by simply copying the "master" library to the laptop, rather than creating a fresh library there.)
    I want to use the "satellite" library on the MacBook Pro to perform tagging, adding location data, rating, further organizing, etc. and then sync those changes back to the "master" library on the Mac Pro.
    I know that Aperture 3 has the ability to sync/merge libraries, but my questions are:
    If the "satellite" library has only the JPEGs available on the local drive, then will any metadata changes made in the "satellite" library properly sync back to the JPEG+RAW pairs in the "master" library? I.e. will Aperture still apply changes in metadata to both the RAWs and JPEGs, even though the RAWs were not present on the "satellite"?
    Will Aperture allow me to group other versions of the file besides the RAW and JPEG on the master library? Will metadata to just the JPEG also be applied to these other versions upon syncing, as described above?
    Is it a "two-way sync" -- i.e. will changes made to the master library also sync back to the satellite library? (If not, that's OK with me, because presumably after merging the satellite into the master, I can delete the satellite library, then re-copy the master back to the laptop to make a new satellite library -- I am also going to have copy over any new JPEG files to the laptop as well, so I don't mind copying one extra file [the new satellite library].)
    I'm sure I've forgotton something important here but, my time is limited so I'll leave it at this for now and post any other questions later. Thanks for any tips, I know this is a complicated issue.
    -=DM=-

    I still need to do some experimenting to see if the file references are volume-specific or if they are volume-blind -- i.e. if they just use paths starting with "/[path]" instead of paths starting with "/Volumes/SpecificDriveName/[path]".
    I am not sure I understand you fully - what kind of file referencing are you speaking of?
    If you use managed master image files, the master images are stored inside the Aperture library, and if you move the complete library to a new drive, then thereferences to  files inside the package still work. So obviously Aperture uses relative pathes here.
    If you use referenced master image files - let's for example assume the Aperture library is on Volume A, the referenced master image files are  on Volume B, and you move your Aperture library now from A to Volume C:  If you open the Library on Volume C, it will still find the master image files on Volume B, so the library stores the absolute path for referenced masters. This even works with referenced masters on network volumes, but I really cannot recommend to store the masters on remote volumes; you will have to make sure the volume is mounted, when you launch Aperture.
    Is that what you were asking about? if not, please rephrase your question.
    Regards

  • Syncing question

    I have some songs on my ipod that I would like to keep on my iPod.  I'd like to add some songs to my iPod by syncing it with iTunes on my computer.  My question is, will I lose the songs that are on my iPod, if I sync it with my computer.
    Also, vice/versa--I have some songs on my iTunes account on my computer that I downloaded from a CD.  I'd like to get these songs onto my iPod.  Will I lose the songs I currently have on my iPod  if I sync it?  (Not everything that is on my iPod is on my iTunes account on my computer. 
    I hope this makes sense!
    Thanks for any advice!

    If this computer is one you've not synced the iPod to before, then yes, without taking extra steps, anything on the iPod not in iTunes will be erased. Check out this user tip from TuringTest:

  • Sync Question

    I have a question regarding syncing my Touch. I recently moved my library to a external drive, however when I go to Itunes I can't pull anything up. I know the transfer was successful, because I can see everyhing on the external drive. I currently still have everything on my ipod, so my question is can I sync my ipod back to itunes. I can reload my music if i have to, However I have videos of my own that I do not have anymore, that I want to keep. I also don't wan't to lose the apps that I have downloaded. Any help would be appreviated. Thanks.

    You already asked this, and the answer is you just can't move your music.
    It may have copied over, but you have a lot more work to do, depending on what you've already done.
    I posted the Apple article, but here is another one.

  • Resolution, audio, alpha channel, and backup questions (newbie)

    Hello!
    Well, after a few weeks of fidgeting around with FCE, I've come up with quite a few questions:
    Image/Audio questions
    A. What is the best still image size for import to a NTSC DV movie? Is it the 720x480 px (3:2 aspect ratio) standard of the DV image, or the 4:3 ratio of your generic CRT TV?
    I know it depends on pan/zoom. This brings up the next question:
    B. I have a still image - literally a blue and black two-color image - that I'd like to zoom. It will start out with a very close shot - and zoom out until it takes up around 10% of the screen. The ending frame (the DV size) will be about 10-12 times smaller than the original image. Does this mean that I should make the original 10-12 times bigger (in both directions) than a DV frame?
    This clip is essentially an imitation of the opening of the movie "Home Alone", where the screen begins blue, and as it zooms out, you see it's a stylized house, which zooms out to a tiny size. That's essentially the effect I'm going for.
    Audio/Video sync issue
    C. Some of the clips I've imported from old iMovie projects are a little out of sync. It's not a conversion issue, but an issue with bad editing on my part . So, I have a still image that's about 1.5 seconds too short - it cuts to the next still, which is 1.5 seconds too long. I've added edit points at both ends of the out-of-sync clip, so that I have a 1.5 second clip, with its own audio and video.
    The problem is that the audio is perfect, but the video is bad. So, I need to replace the video, without changing the audio. How is this done?
    D. Sometimes, I'll end up with either audio or video that's not quite right after importing a movie. However, FCE locks them together. Is there a way to unlock them so that I can change either? Essentially, is there a way to change the audio and video from one clip into two seperate clips?
    E. Can I export a single clip or two only? (eg - the same as the "Share selected clips only" check box the iMovie's share menu)
    Alpha channel/marquee question:
    In one idea I had for this short, I have a still image (and some video) where I'd like to highlight a small area in one part of the image. In one part, it's a small object in the background that I'm highlighting. If you've seen a documentary where they have a group photo, and highlight the face of one particular person, that's the effect I'm going for.
    I've made some Photoshop images that can achieve this effect - using a transparent background, a black top layer (at ~40-80% opacity), and an eliptical marquee for the highlighted portion. I then import it, and fine tune the location/size. It works, but it takes a lot of time to talor each shot. Is there some way to do this IN Final Cut Express? A filter perhaps?
    In addition: (alpha-video)
    is there a way to turn part of a video into an alpha channel, so that it's transparent in the final movie? It's not so much a solid color (as the bluescreen/chroma key technique would need), but more of background. For example, I would like to take some footage of my family walking in front of trees, remove the background, and place an entirely different video/still in. Is that possible?
    Backup: FInal question:
    I have my source media organized fairly well on my external drive. However, if my drive should die, It would be incredibly tedius to re-link all the files. (I do have a fairly current backup of the external files). Not to mention finding the orignal capture files, re-timing the project, and so on. The project file itself is probably the easiest to back up.
    So, how do you back up EVERYTHING? Some projects may have hundreds of files, all over my external drive. Is there some easy way to back up all the files into a single place, like a single folder or DVD, so that if my drive should fail, all the files are in one spot?
    I can export them back to a miniDV tape, but I don't have that many, plus they're $5 a pop. I can do this with Toast, but I'll likely end up missing some out-of-the-way files. If only .Mac's Backup had a Final Cut preset.....
    I know that's a BUNCH of stuff up there, so if you can help with any of them, i'd be appreciative.
    Thanks,
    Daniel

  • Mail syncing question

    Hi,
    the scenario is this:
    On my macbook, 10.6, one of the POP accounts is acting strange. It's a BT internet account. Symptoms are it starts to download messages and just gets stuck. Also duplicates are appearing. I've tried deleting the message from the server via webmail, and recreating the account. The messages do reach the iPhone no problem.
    So , i'm assuming that there's something lurking inside "My home directory"/Library/Mail.
    I'm going to delete this Mail folder, along with Mail preferences.
    The question is, can i sync the accounts (one bt internet, the other @me.com) from my iPhone / ipod to the Macbook via either MobileMe or iTunes?
    Am i right in thinking that you can sync accounts from a desktop / laptop Mac to an iPhone / iPod, but you can't do the reverse?
    Many thanks in advance.

    The +iPod touch+ doesn't offer Mail syncing. All it does is sync the account details. Emails are downloaded separately when you next get a suitable WiFi connection.

  • 2 Sync questions

    Hi!
    I have 2 things to ask to the experts!
    1. My Ovi Suite doesn't sync my SMS since I realized an Hard reset... I had installed also PC suite to see if that program was better than this one, but the 2 were in conflict (Ovi suite asked to install a phone support program or something similar, but it didn't find it), so I deleted PC suite also with PC Suite Cleaner... And now OVi is "good" and sees there are new messages, but when i try to sync them, the program says the Synchronization is ok and no new messages are added (in Ovi memory). How can I solve it?
    2. If I want to change computer, how can i save all Ovi suite files (SMS, notes, notebook,...) and move them to the new PC?
    Thx

    Can't answer your Question but want to add something..
    I am never comfortable with the Sync process and hence always Save my Data thru' Back-up... I can choose the location / name of the file I want to.. and can easily transfer it to othe PC using a Pen drive.. (though never needed it..)
    Also tested the functionality.. Take Back-up ( all important / not so important data..) Delete not -so important from the phone.. and restore to confirm..

  • Another Library Sync Question

    Hi. A slight variation on an often asked question - but one I haven't found asked elsewhere on the forums:
    So, my old computer died and I don't have a backup of my iPhone contents. I'm trying to sync to a new instance of iTunes on my new laptop.
    I have my mp3 collection on an exteral hard drive, so I can just rebuild the collection on my iPhone if it comes to it.
    The thing is, my mp3 collection is up in the 50,000's and I want to transfer the same 10,000ish to my iPhone out of it ... if possible without starting from scratch.
    So the question is, is it possible to get itunes to recognize that the songs on the iPhone are actually in it's library - but only a subset of the library needs syncing?
    Thanks!

    I didn't find any other free ones, and Tuneranger is discontinued and doesn't work right anyway.  I resorted to using itunes on the mac mini and the option to show files not in it's library to do a manual sync.  I did not try rsync on the w8 machine to push files over because I was worried it would mess up the database files.

  • Calendar Sync Question

    Nice forum,
    I have a question re calendard. in my 9000 I have a work account using BES and one more e-mail work acount using BIS (since they are pop3). When I shcedule an appointment from outlook and choose to send the invitation the pop3 account the appointment is synced with my BB fine (BB calendar shows it in blue).
    But in case I use my 9000 to to add an appointment (BB calendar shows it in orange) using the pop3 account (the default is desktop BES account) then this appointment is not synced with outlook.
    Does anyone know if there is a way to sync these appointments with the outlook calendar(s), too?
    Thanks!

    Hi Donald,
    It's be a pleasure to help you on this!
    As you said, you events created on your computers will show up automatically on my iPod Touch's calendar (if activated). But also, if you make any change or add a new event directly on your iPod, they will definitely appear also on your computer, the next time you access it!
    If this is not the case can someone explain to me how I get the events I have added on the iPod Touch to show up on the calendars at the other locations?
    Have you ever read [this article|http://www.apple.com/mobileme/setup> from Apple. It should be helpful, to teach you how to setup your devices!
    Hope this helps!
