Timing difference between Macbook and WIndows system

I uses a web content management system for my website which was developed in windows, IE and firefox compatible. I notice that if I open up the website in a Macbook Pro, the system time is always 8 hours ahead of Singapore time although the Macbook time settings is set locally. I use firefox, safari, IE5, same result. Which means whatever contents I saved only appears 8 hours later. I use Windows IE or firefox and it works just fine. I don't think is the CMS system problem. I thought it might just be on this Macbook, I got someone to try it out using another Macbook, same result, 8 hours ahead. So it it something about the Macbook settings?
na   Windows XP Pro  

Hi Keonigt,
There are definitely hardware differences between the MacBook and its bigger sibling the MacBook Pro. You pointed out the first difference of screen sizes. Another perhaps obvious difference is the MacBook Pro's external construction is aluminum as opposed to "plastic". Another difference which may affect performance is that the MacBook Pro utilizes dedicated Video RAM as opposed to the MacBook's sharing it's VRAM with its RAM. This will affect gaming and other graphic intensive applications.
Depending on your needs and objectives - these differences will affect your decision. Of course, both are fantastic machines.
Good luck.

  • Difference between view and window ?

    Hi All,
    Can you tell me a basic difference between view and window , maybe you can correlate your answers with concepts of HTML.
    Rajeev

    Hi Rajeev,
    A window is a place for displaying your views. Your view is not available to the outside world. View is available only to your component. However, your window is an interface view, which can be displayed in other components.
    A view contains your UI elements. It has a layout (a window does not). A window contains embedded views.
    In the window, you can define how navigation between views takes place (by creating navigation links).

  • Inventory value difference between SAP and leagcy system

    Hello Gurus,
    My client has inventory value difference in SAP and Legacy system during cutoff activities due to following reason.
    a. Rounding off
    b. GRN done
    C. Goods issue done
    Can I do the manual posting for Value difference?.if yes then how?
    Please guide me on the same.
    Regards
    SAP FI

    Hi
    It is not just difference in Valuation...
    1. If GRN is done in Legacy system, you will have to upload stock in SAP also
    2. If Goods issue is done in Legacy system after you got the stock file, then you will also have to post Goods issue in SAP
    The Qty uploaded should match between Legacy and SAP systemj...  If the qty matches and difference is in value, you will have to decide which value is final i.e. Legacy value or SAP value.... Accordingly, you will have to pass a JV in Legacy system (If SAP value is Final) or in SAP system (If legacy value is final)

  • Differences between AIX and Windows for SAP

    Dear All,
    I have a problem regarding SAP Software.We want to change our company software .First we order SAP On Windows with Oracle10g But Now We want SAP on AIX with Oracle10g.
    SAP delivered us software on Windows platform.
    Please Suggest me for this as what are the differences between the above two platforms and what are the differences between the above 2 platforms.
    Regards,
    Pankaj Kalsayan

    hi Pankaj,
    well, this is a very general question. perhaps you could specify a little more.
    in general i would see no difference regarding the end user sitting in front of his pc using sapgui.
    as far as i know all server side sap software is available for aix and windows (and many more).
    for administration on the other hand there is of course lots of difference. AIX is a UNIX operating system running on special hardware with power processors. it offers quit extensive virtualisation abilities using so called LPARs and supports real big number of CPUs and large RAM. Windows is a completly differnet operating system running mostly on x86/amd64 hardware.
    therefore you should also consider what know-how is available in your system administration.
    not shure if that is partly answering your question ...
    btw. if you are going forward with AIX you should perhaps consider switching oracle with db2. so you have a consistent IBM based landscape. also to me, sap and db2 seem to "like" each other more than sap and oracle

  • Byte count difference between Unix and Windows

    Hi,
    I use sun.net.ftp.FtpClient to transfer files from a windows machine to a unix server.
    The transfer works fine.
    However, due to a problem I had a few days ago with the file not completing it's transfer but no side (not my FtpClient object nor the UNIX Ftp server) has thrown an exception or reported an error, I need to verify the transfer is complete.
    from the byte count I see that on my machine, the file size is 120743 bytes, and on the server side it's 121047 bytes.
    The file has 14172 records, when the last one is an empty line.
    There is a 304 bytes difference between the 2 reports.
    I downloaded the file I transferred there manually and compared the 2 and they match.
    How can I know from my program if the transfer is complete?
    Thanks,
    Omer.

    The file size isn't 304 byte, that's the difference between the 2 files.
    I use FtpClient.binary() to set the mode to binary prior to sending the file.
    The file has 14172 records which should add up to a total difference of 14172 bytes (maybe 1 or 2 more if there is a difference in the EOF), but not 304.
    here's the code:
    putClient=new FtpClient(host, port); //initialize the client object
    putClient.login(user, password);
    putClient.binary(); //set transfer mode to binary
    putClient.cd(remotePath); //change directory to the target one
    FileInputStream fileIn=new FileInputStream(sourcePath + File.separator + sourceFileName);
    long fileSize=fileIn.getChannel().size(); //get the size of the file
    TelnetOutputStream telnetOut=putClient.put(remoteFileName);//acquire an input stream from the server
    byte[] byteBuff=new byte[8192]; //8 kb buffer
    int readSuccesfull=0;
    while((readSuccesfull=fileIn.read(byteBuff))!=-1){ // now transfer the file
    telnetOut.write(byteBuff, 0, readSuccesfull);
    totalByetsSent+=readSuccesfull;
    fileIn.close();//release the file stream resource
    TelnetInputStream inStream = putClient.list(); // acquire a stream for verifying the file was received
    /* now I read the lines of the list() command and parse the lines for the size and date and I get that the file that I sent has a size of 121047, and the line that represents it is this:
    -rwxrwxrwx   1 owner    group          121047 Jan 10 17:49 ivory.txt
    However, the size from my machine's report is 120743 which I get from the fileSize variable*/According to what has been said here, and to my intuition, the size on UNIX should be smaller than the size on Windows, but yet, it's not the case.
    This would add up fine if the file that I downloaded from the server wouldn't match the file that I sent, but they do.
    I'm pretty much a noob at developing and even more a noob at Java, so there is a very good chance that I do something wrong here, could be with the use of the FileChannel.size() method usage.
    Thanks.

  • LabVIEW 8.5.1 Student edition - differences between Mac and Windows version?

    Hi,
    I've just bought the student version of LabVIEW 8.5.1 and am using Mac OS X 10.4.11. What are the biggest differences between the Mac and Windows versions since the box came with a Mac installer CD and a Windows installer DVD?
    Cheers 
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Looks like you got the LabVIEW Student Edition Software Suite DVD.
    It comes with 6 toolkits, and from the product spects, some (or all?) of those are windows only (at least in 8.5), e.g.:
    Digital Filter Design Toolkit
    Modulation Toolkit
    SignalExpress
    Since you have 8.5, you are also missing a few basic things that only recevied MAC support in 8.6, such as Mathscript, Control design and Simulation, and Native 3D graphs.

  • Internal Differences between MacBook and MacBook Pro?

    I was wondering if anyone has concrete information on whether on not the un-coustomizable, internal workings of the MacBook and MacBook Pro are different, such as the motherboard, logic board, other interfaces, etc.
    I have been talking with Apple reps and none have been able to give me a deffinate answer or written proof. Does anyone have info. supporting or refuting the statement that MacBooks and MacBook Pros are condigured/maunfactured with the same parts, aside from the Video Card?
    Thanks

    They are not the same; the disassembley pictures for both are here so you can compare for yourself

  • CS5 differences between mac and windows

    Hello all, we just installed CS5 on a new PC and are now comtemplating purchasing a MAC to run CS5 on as well.  I was wondering what the differences are and limitations now that they're both on Intel processors.
    Our designers are concerned that with out a MAC they won't be able to "if we get any native mac files, we won’t be able to access them—it does happen sometimes"
    They mention that some portions of one of our publications are done completely on a MAC.
    Any input or justification would be appreciated!

    There are no differences to speak of between the applications on the two platforms. The only possible issue would be fonts. Mac Type 1 fonts are not compatible with Windows but almost everything is OpenType today and that's totally crossplatform.

  • Difference between mac and windows

    I'm a beginner user of Adobe Presenter in Japan.
    I don't know why the price of this app differs between for Windows($499.00) and for Mac(Video Express:$1.99).
    Although I tried using both version(Win and Mac), I confermed no differences in functions, abilities, and so on.
    Please tell me the reason why. i think it's unfair.

    Hello,
    Welcome to Adobe Forums.
    Adobe Presenter 9 for windows works as a plugin in MS Powerpoint (2007, 2010 & 2013 [32bit])
    You can add quizzes, create videos, publish SCORM content and you can convert your Powerpoint Presentation into interactive content.
    Adobe Presenter Video Express for MAC is an app which is used for create vidoes and publish them as MP4

  • Difference between MacBook and MacBook Pro

    I'm wondering why someone would choose a Pro model over the non-Pro model. Is it worth the extra $.
    The difference I see are:
    Screen size
    Only have firewire port on Pro
    Only have back lit keyboard on Pro
    While the Pro I'm looking at has faster Processor (2.4/2.0), the bus speed is slower on the Pro (800/1066).
    Thanks for any tips/advice.

    I recnetly checked both machines at a local Distributor (scNet), and there's quite the difference apart from what you posted. Despite the fact that I rrrreally like the cute very mobile 13" form factor, I decided for the 15"machine. The display of the larger notebook is amazingly better, the 13" display really is a disgrace, it's washed out and doesn't feel as high end as it should. Coming from an Asus W2J 17" glossy, I'm used to reflections, but the 13" inch would have been a step backwards. Also, the 15" has the better processor options (larger L2, higher speeds and the 7200 rpm harddisks, which you really should spent 50 or 90 bucks for, as they will make a LOT of difference in terms of performance). However much I may like the compactness of the smaller machine, it's pretty clear that the macbook pro is well worth paying 600€ more.

  • Difference between MacBook and Pro?

    Hi there. Just a quick question...
    I looked at the MacBook for the first time today (rather than the MacBook Pro) and saw I could get the same spec for less. The only difference I could see was the screen size. I'm sure there's more to it. Can someone explain? Thanks

    Other than the obvious screen size difference, the other major difference is the video chipset. The MacBook uses an "integrated" Intel GMA 950 with 64MB of shared videom memory, while the MacBook Pro uses an ATI Radeon x1600 Mobility with 128MB or 256MB of dedicated video memory. This translates to much better performance in games and thing that make heavy use of the graphics card.
    To me, this is the only real difference, and if it weren't for that, I would own one right now. As it stands, though, I need to do a little more thinking about whether I'm ok with essentially giving up the option of playing graphic-intensive games in XP. I'm not a huge gamer now, so it might not bother me much, but the idea (for me) was to get a MB/P as a desktop replacement, and in case I want to play games in the future I'll need to go back to the desktop...
