THE GOLDEN QUESTION
Alright guys your responses determine my future in video editing.
So i have heard so many negative things about HDV (read the forums). I am starting to shoot in 2 weeks for a project i want to premiere for next summer. I shoot surfing and have been for the last 4 years. I currently use fcp hd and and xl2 with a 23" cinema display (never had a problem (EVER). If possible i would like to use my previous footage (DV) and incorporate it with the majority of my footage (yet to be shot).
I am not the best on HD terms and i feel like i need to convert because it might be better now than later. But yet if i keep shooting at 29.97 SD for ( a year) my footage and video will look outdated.
I love canon and willing to go out and but it today ( xh-a1).
i dont mind buying the matrox mxo, and the high quality tapes. but i do mind being outdated in 4 monthes with prehistoric hdv equipment
I am going to purchase the latest version of FCP regardless.?
PLEASE TELL ME WHAT YOU THINK
thanks steve, can u expand on the compression
problems.
Not much to say that I can afford the time for. HDV is an extremely compressed format. It also has temporal compression, which not only means the quality varies over time, but that FCP has to work really hard just to show it to you. It's a cool gimmick that is capable of giving a pretty good picture under ideal circumstances, but not without a lot of hassles.
The point was that if you do fall for the HDV gimmick, just make sure you don't subject your material to another HDV compression. That would seriously screw it up, and is completely unnecessary.
if i import as dvcprohd i can edit it the whole time
and monitor it in fcp without needing a mxo and still
get HD.?
You get whatever your source material and/or sequence settings say you get. You won't get true (CRT) monitoring on a tight budget in any HD format. So unless you can afford both the MXO or card and the monitor that justifies it, you would have to depend on the computer display. Which isn't great.
Here's more than you want to know about working in the various HDs: http://manuals.info.apple.com/en/FCP5HD_and_BroadcastFormats.pdf

I DO remember them but Apple chose to put them in Japanese and I can not change the language on Manage my Apple ID so I do not know if I made an error ,it threw me off , it was the wrong question Where did you fly to on your first Aiplane trip ? then I was unable to enter until 8 hours then called Apple Japan 4 times each time threy asked me would you like to speak with an English speaker,I said yes then they told me sorry today is Sunday no English speakers ,but they refused to speak Japanese, then I called 5th time and a kind guy could speak English we were on 1and 1/2 hours he got me to log in but the reset key chain could not be completed still pending.
He said do not mess with that ! then I got a text from somewhere to reset 4 pins suddenly it was very strange I said to him that I got this pin this morning but it said you can use maximum 3 hours it had a UK number and I told him I do not like this and will not enter the code he said do not do it if it is from the UK and then I said to him ok you did a lot to help but we can not go any further ! and we cut of I went back to my computer to re do the ID but I found everything a mess so I call and a stupid sounding Japanese women with a squeaky voice came on I was calm at first and they want your phone number your IMEI number your iPhone serial number date of birth Address email address it takes 10 munutes to check then they ask what are you caling about so I try to explain my keychain is broken or problems with language security questions and can not change my pasword because the security question have failed me so it is ONE BIG HEADACHE AND I START I GET STRESSED she says Do want an ENGLISH speaker ,I say yes ,that guy i talked to earlier but I never got his name and first time I ever talked to him but they said he is not here so I said ok and then she said today is sunday so call back in the morning ,I said ,well ok in Japanese but they make you feel stupid because they do not want to speak Jap@anese with none natives and they are to busy,And they feel that I should not bother them ,then I say that Apple Japan is trying to refuse Apple foreign customers and then she wants to hang up and ask me to visit the shop ,but they are the same I have a very bad time with Apple Japan since they do not discuss software problems or security with customer meaning if you have a problem they ask you to come on a time 20 minutes max so they do hardware test and say you phone is fine then I say no I can not reset my ID they say you must call call centre so I am going around in circles ,When I call English it is usually Australia so if my problem is in Japan surely if do not want me to talk to them in Japanese and they ask me to call Australia but every time my call charge is expensive after asking them is this free because I have Apple care they say yes but when the call goes to Australia 0120 277 535 it might change to paid call so I call then I have to ask is this charging they say we can not give you that information ! so what can I do I have have been at the computer and phone all day on my day off work and in tre week I am so busy and can not use my phone I can not work without it ,this new technology for you ,they can not cope with the fact that the customer have problems yet they do not want to deal with us because they can not solve it and so it shows them to be useless they like to walk around in their cool tee shirts and retro shop but when it comes to functionality we are unwelcome they got the money so do not return because apple is perfect that nothing should go wrong .
But it does somehow my English security answers do not work on a Japanese Question especialy if I did not choose that question I set up the multiple choice In English and wrote the answers in English or Roman and set them langauge preferences in English, do you really think you can correctly write english name or word in Japanese they write a police patrol car pato caa パトカア they do not have r and l .So it is my choice to make my security easy for me and as difficult for others to hack.But they also have patororoo choo meaning ' now patrolling ' so why they have pato caa patrol car and patoro patrol and have thousands of Chinese words kanji they can find patrol.

The Three Best Alternatives for Security Questions and Rescue Mail
1. Use Apple's Express Lane.
Go to https://expresslane.apple.com ; click 'See all products and services' at the
bottom of the page. In the next page click 'More Products and Services, then
'Apple ID'. In the next page select 'Other Apple ID Topics' then 'Forgotten Apple
ID security questions' and click 'Continue'. Please be patient waiting for the return
phone call. It will come in time depending on how heavily the servers are being hit.
2. Call Apple Support in your country: Customer Service: Contact Apple support.
3. Rescue email address and how to reset Apple ID security questions.

How to I burn to a DVD my project edited on mynew imac with Lion in imovie? I used some HD stills and some video from a non HD sony DCR-SX63..was ready to burn a DVD then saw the haunting question "Where is iDVD?" Please help..this wedding edit is long ovedue.
How to I burn to a DVD my project edited on my new imac
If you are still within your 15 day return period. Call Apple they will sent out iDVD at no charge. (There are no realistic substitutes.)
Nicely explain that you may return the computer without iDVD. You MUST speak to a senior advisor to get a free copy. The first tier people cannot do it.
408-996-1010
800-692-7753
If that doesn't work you can purchase iLife 11 (includes iDVD) on disk.
IDVD is a wonderful piece of software and well worth the low cost of $40.

I am currently running windows XP, using a 20” Phillips flat screen as my monitor. I have no issues what so ever with this monitor using XP. I am running from the VGA out on my laptop (company PC, IBM) straight into my monitor. TV DVI is type DVI-I.
I want a Mac Mini!!! So… The big question is.. Will I be able to use this monitor? As stated above, I have no issues with XP. The Mini comes with a mini DVI to VGA adapter. Shouldn’t I be able to plug right into this adapter and go using the cable I already have?
Thanks much!
Mac OS X (10.4.9)Welcome to Apple Discussions!
Indeed, given the presence of a VGA connector on the monitor and the DVI/VGA supplied with the mini, you should be able to plug the two things together and have them work with no problem. Unfortunately, without knowing the exact model of screen and there being someone posting here that has tried the same combination, it's impossible to tell you with absolute certainty that it will work - very high probability, but not certainty.
How readily the combination works depends to a great extent on whether the display outputs a standard signal which identifies it and the settings it requires, such that the mini can detect it. If it does, it'll work and offer you a range of suitable and compatible settings. If it doesn't, you may need to use a third-party utility such as SwitchResX - which isn't easy but many have used with success.
If the display also has DVI input, that's another option too of course. -

When I set up the icloud I was using my then email address. My email address has now changed.
I tried to access under the old email address to change it to a new email address but I couldn't remember the security questions and as I can't access the old email address, I can't change it. So to solve the problem I set up a new account under the new email address. The only problem is my iphone is still asking for the old email address password which doesn't work.
How do I connect my iphone to the new account as it wont let me delete the old account on the iphone without the password (which as mentioned above doesn't work)?Content and Apple IDs -
Content is forever tied to the Apple ID that bought it. Apple does not transfer content from one Apple ID to another. Apple does not merge Apple IDs. You will never be able to access your content bought with one Apple ID with a new Apple ID. -
can someone plz confirm me that how i can change or update the security questions related to my apple id? as i have been never put them since i create my apple id but now due to some security reasons its asking me again and again the answers. i am unable to go through the process. thanks.

How can I make a fill-in-the-blank question with partial score?
I need to make an evaluation test with some questions. Some of them is a fill-in-the-blank question and it has to have partial score.
I have:
4 fields (text entry boxes) with: retain text, validate user input;
also checked include in quiz, with points, add to total and report answers;
an action that disables the 4 fields when the student is on review mode (otherwise it would be possible to change the answer after submitting the answers);
Problems:
I can't give feddback to the student: if i turn on success/failure captions the student will see them while answering, if i turn them off he wont know what's the right answer. I tried to use a shape to hide captions but the captions are always in front of the shape;
When reviewing the test something happens and the second time we see the results slide it assumes that the fields in the FIB question are empty;
Notes: it will be used in Moodle, as a scorm package
What can I do?I have a test with some questions (multiple choice, FIB, matching, etc). I have just one button to submit all the answers, and after submiting the student can see his score and review the test to know where he failed. He can't answer again. However, he can change the answer multiple times before submiting.
"if i turn on success/failure captions the student will see them while answering" - before submitting
"if i turn them off he wont know what's the right answer" - after submitting
My results page is the default. I didn't use any variable. When i go to the results page after reviewing the test all the entry boxes are "wrong". -
I see there is no way to change the security questions i set up when I first purchased my ipod touch. All the answers I get do not work. Can't by another device until I get around this issue.

Another user had success doing the following:
I got some help from an apple assistant on the phone. It is kind of round about way to get in.
Here is what he said to do and it is working for me...
a. on the device that is asking you for the security questions go to "settings", > "store" >
tap the Apple ID and choose view"Apple ID" and sign in.
b. Tap on payment information and add a credit/debit card of your preference then select
"done", in the upper right corner
c. sign out and back into iTunes on the device by going to "settings"> "store" > tap the
Apple ID and choose "sign-out" > Tap "sign -in" > "use existing Apple ID" and you
should be asked to verify your security code for the credit /debit card and NOT the
security questions.
d. At this time you can remove the card by going back in to edit the payment info and
selecting "none" as the card type then saving the changes by selecting "done". You
should now be able to use your iTunes store credit without answering the security
questions.
It's working for me ...I just have to put in my 3 digit security pin from the credit card I am using.

Looking for information on the below questions on ASM
Scenario: (Oracle 10g on Windows 2003 with EMC storage)
ASM Partition table crashed for LUN 20 on 18th July
DB was up and running till 23rd July (New LUN (LUN 36) was presented and the RMAN backup used to restore the data that were residing on the corrupt LUN)
End of the day everything screwed up and the complete grid (4 nodes) was rebuild.
Links:
As mentioned in the link: http://www.exforsys.com/forum/oracle-database/487-what-asm-instance-oracle.html
"The ASM instance is only involved during the creation or deletion of files and when disk configurations change (such as dropping or adding a disk). When these types
of changes occur, the ASM instance automatically rebalanced the disks and provides the necessary information to refresh the extent map in the SGA of the database
instance. Of course, this process requires that the ASM instance run concurrently with the database instance, and only shut down after the database instance is
closed."
As mentioned in the link: http://www.orafaq.com/wiki/ASM_FAQ#ASM_disk_header.2Fsuperblock_backups.3F
"ASM disk headers (super-blocks) cannot be backed up and restored in Oracle 10g. By implication, if you use EXTERNAL REDUNDANCY and a single disk's header is
accidentally overwritten, the entire disk group will have to be restored."
As mentioned in the link: http://www.datadisk.co.uk/html_docs/oracle/asm.htm
"ASM is a special instance that does not have any data files, there is only ASM instance one per server which manages all ASM files for each database. The instance
looks after the disk groups and allows access to the ASM files. Databases access the files directly but uses the ASM instance to locate them. If the ASM instance is
shutdown then the database will either be automatically shutdown or crash. "
With the above scenario and the documents provided in the links above, I am unable to get the complete picture of what went wrong. Will be great if some one could
through more light on the below questions. (Note: we have multiple vendor engaged managing different part of this outage and unable to get the real fact of what went
wrong)
1, The ASM had given the details of the disk to the DB, and the DB is managing the disk directly. Also the DB and the ASM instance were up and running till 23rd is
what i understand going by the details given in the above links, in this scenario how can we confirm that the partition table is corrupt / missing. Is their a way to
check the same?
2, ASM disk headers (super-blocks) cannot be backed up, that means that it can not be read directly. Then is it possible to say that the ASM disk header is corrupt /
missing?
3, If the ASM disk header / partition table of LUN 20 is corrupt on 18th, can the DB run till 23rd without any issue? will the ASM & DB does not crash?
4, ASM will strip the data across the available LUN's, will it not be able to rebuild the data on the newly presented LUN 36 instead of using RMAN backup to rebuild the
data? or is the ASM not configured as it should be done. (WE have multiple LUN's presented to this Grid)
