Transferring file over network? what can I use besides ssh?

What can I use to transfer file over network besides using ssh?
This is only for experimental purposes. I have used ssh before, by using command like this:
(time cat /run/shm/test/input/totalInput.tar | ssh username@ip-server "cat > /dev/null") 2>>/run/shm/test/p3_UC_ctime_tar.txt
or this, if I tried to compress a file and then transfer:
(time bzip2 -kfc1 /run/shm/test/input/totalInput.tar | ssh username@ip-server "cat > /dev/null") 2>>/run/shm/test/p3_ctime_tar.txt
However, I think ssh is killing my transfer speed. I am getting only 10-20Mbps.. Router should support over 200-300Mbps.
What can I use besides ssh? I was thinking about netcat, but what I don't like is that I have to open port on the other side for each new file transfer.

Well, what I am conserned with things like scp and ssh (I tried scp too) is encryption.
I just moved one file over to a server with scp, and I got about 2.1MB/s... which is about 16.8 Mbps..
I am using Linksys E900, which is wireless-N router. Connection exist between two computers only, nothing else is using that router. However, there is another wireless point outside of our room, which is used for public University network. I don't know how much of effect it would have on our set up.
Both computers have plenty of disk space. One computer (actually development board) uses sd-card for its OS and other disk space.
About 200-300Mbps.. is just something I saw on router's specs.

    I have 8mm films transferred to .avi files at 18fps.  Can I use Final Cut Express to convert to standard DVDs to play on a US TV?

    Hi
    I was hoping that FCE would be able to handle the coversion from 18 to 30fps but that appears not to be the case.
    It does - If I'm not totally wrong. Can be to much using FinalCut Pro (6)
    Start FCE
    Select type of project You want to do
    I guess - NTSC 29.97fps - Select that from FCE menu / Easy Set-up
    Start a new Sequence
    DROP A PHOTO in TimeLine - at beginning.
    Now project is locked to 29.97 fps
    Now import and drop the 18fps clip in TimeLine.
    Select to convert it to match the setting of TimeLine.
    IF THIS IS A GOOD WAY - I hesitate to say - It works - but if quality is OK or not - I don't know
    I DO : use JES_Deinterlacer (free from Internet) to convert the frame rate in my clips (usually 25fps) to 29.97 fps - Then and first then I import the converted clip into FinalCut to be used in my NTSC projects.
    The quality done in this way - is very good and the program is free - so I can not want any better.

    I just got a new iPhone 4S and tried to restore but it didn't finished downloading all the apps, tried to reset and restore again, but it wouldn't start over. What can I do?

    Check USB connections
    If there’s an issue with the USB port, cable, dock, or hub, or if the device becomes disconnected during restore, try troubleshooting the USB connection, then troubleshooting your security software.
    Common errors: 13, 14, 1600-1629, 1643-1650, 2000-2009, 4000, 4005, 4013, 4014, 4016, “invalid response”, and being prompted to restore again after a restore completes.
    To narrow down the issue, you can also change up your hardware:
    Use another USB cable.
    Plug your cable into a different USB port on your computer.
    Try a different dock connector (or no dock).
    Add (or remove) a USB hub between your device and computer.
    Connect your computer directly to your Internet source, with no routers, hubs, or switches.
    If you see your error after changing your USB connections, continue to the next section to troubleshoot your hardware.

  • What can I use as Microsoft office

    What can I use that is similar to Microsoft office for iPad?

    There are a number of apps that are compatible with Office documents. As Simon said, Apple makes iOS versions of their own iWork apps (Pages, Keynote, Numbers) that can be purchased separately. There are also 3rd party combined suites that cost less than the separate Apple apps. Ones often recommended include Documents 2 Go,  Quickoffice and Office2 HD.
    If you want access to the actual Microsoft Office applications and can accept needing a network connection whenever you want to use the apps, a server-based solution such as CloudOn might be an option for you.
    You'll find a number of other threads on the subject if you want to look for additional information and opinions.

    You can select 5 (or more images) and place them by dragging in Adobe InDesign. After creating document go to File > Place, navigate to images and select them. In InDesign start dragging and press right arrow key couple of times then release mouse button. You can export file as PDF, JPG, PNG image from File > Export.

    I want to burn dvd on my imac and iDVD is not available. What can i use now?

    What exactly do you want to do, if you simply want to burn some data onto a disc then right click the files and click Burn. However if you want something more robust you can buy something like Roxio Toast.

  • Transferring files over wireless?

    If I have two macs on the same wifi network, how can I use that to transfer large files (like lots of photos) from one to the other?

    Hi Terabithia,
    Just make sure that both Macs have file sharing turned on (under System Preferences > Sharing), and then you should be able to see each Mac pop up on the sidebar of any Finder window on the other machine.
    If you don't see the computers there, try going to Go > Network under the Finder menu.
    Hope that helps!

  • Kisight:- If I Don't Have or Want to Use My iSight What Can I Use ?

    kisight:- If I Don't Have or Want to Use My iSight What Can I Use ?
    Or What Cameras are available for Macs ?
    This question used to come up for Macs that did not have Internal Cameras and the User did not have an External iSight.
    Since the advent of Intel Mac and the Internal iSight and OS 10.4.9 (late Tiger) the question has broadened from "What can I use with iChat ?" to "What cameras can I use with My Mac ?" and from there into the current Question this User Tip plans to answer.
    On the whole it is a case of matching a camera for the type of application you are going to use it most with.
    A web cam can be used in iMovie to create Email or Video Blogs although Camcorders do a better job. Camcorders can be used as web cams.
    Camera Types
    These fall into three main categories that themselves have subsets.
    Your choice is going to be influenced by the Applications you want to use it with.
    1) Firewire Cameras (Plug an Play)
    a) The iSight (External) made by Apple and several other similar cameras have mostly disappeared off the market. (Although iSights seem to be still doing well on Ebay - See Version and Mounts).
    b) Firewire Camcorders. These vary as to which apps that work with dues to the different Signal outputs they can do.
    Apple Article TA26556 Highlights some that have issues due to their proprietary DV Format.
    2) USB 1.1 able Cameras. (Not Plug and Play)
    This includes most cameras pre Vista (more on that later)
    Most of these will need a suitable Mac Driver either from the Manufacturer or from one of two Generic sources (macam and IOXeperts). Some manufacturers will include a Mac Driver on the CD that comes with the camera some will supply it as a download from their Site.
    It is worth while saying at this point that iChat will also need this reasonably cheap iUSBCam Utility as well.
    This Utility was originally designed for getting the External iSight to work on computers less than the G3/600Mghz spec for iChat. Then it included the ability to get USB cameras to work with iChat.
    You will need one of these three options listed so far if you are OS 10.4.8 or below or have only USB 1.1 ports/sockets on your Mac.
    3) USB 2.0 Cameras. (Plug and Play in most cases)
    a) Those that are UVC (USB Video Class) Compliant (Also listed as Vista Certified)
    Apple added a UVC driver to the OS at 10.4.9 but your Mac also has to have an USB 2.0 port that you can plug such a camera into (Some keyboard ports are not USB 2.0). This means that the camera is Plug and Play although it may not have all the features it has on a PC
    b) Those that are USB 2.0 but are not Vista Certified/UVC compliant. (You are going to need Mac Drivers again)
    This site about Apple Compatible cameras may be of some help.
    A Note on quality of Pictures.
    Firewire cameras of either sort are best with Camcorders being the best of all. (Generally more pixels delivered faster to your Computer)
    The Newer USB 2.0 cameras are tending to exceed the 640 X 480 pixels that earlier USB1.1 cameras use with some currently giving 1.3Mp resolutions. It should be noted though that not all applications will use this format.
    Look closely at the maximum Frame rate (fps) a camera can produce. You may not get it is every applications but something that starts with a max of 15fps is going to give you no leeway.
    Applications
    You may get some more insight into what to go for by asking in one of these forums:-
    iSight Discussions,
    iChat AV Discussions for iChat 3 and iChat 2 and Earlier,
    iChat and iChat Sharing (in Leopard)
    and iMovie Discussions
    Please Note:- some of these are Category Links and you have to select a forum within the list at the top of the linked page.

    Versions and Mounts Which Version Am I Buying ?
    First off I will not say so much on Buying a second hand External iSight other than making sure you use a reputable Selling site or an Individual Seller so that you have recourse if the device turns out to be faulty. Try and get to see the camera working if you can, preferably seeing it plugged in and working or by iChat and seeing the Pic it produces (Get the person to show you live Screen shots (or Screen Share in Leopard/iChat 4) of System Preferences > Sound > Input as the iSight will be listed)
    What I will list here is info about the different versions.
    There were three versions before the External iSight was discontinued. There is little outward differences as the main change is the mounts that are included with each version. They all function the same way.
    The versions are distinguished by letters (Revision A, B or C) in addition to the base part number and an added slash (M8817LL/).The Last model included different mounts for Laptops, Desktop Stand, Magnetic mount and one for a Flat Panel iMac (the Lampshade one). See pictures in this PDF on page 6.
    Apple no Longer sell the External iSight or the Apple M9314G/B iSight Accessory Kit either but you may find it at other places as well if the mount you want/need does not come with the camera. Pics of Box and Contents
    It appears that individual iSight mounts and other items can be purchased though this iSight Service FAQ page
    Remember the youngest External iSight is likely to be at least 4 years old. Current anecdotal information suggests the cost of an Apple Repair to a faulty External iSight exceeds the cost of a USB Replacement (Or the value in real terms, of the camera itself - although higher prices seem to be quoted on Ebay and Amazon)

    Thanks Nubz
    I will review further an correct myself.
    The last reads the way I meant as in physically getting to see it.
    I am not sure you are reading it the same way.
    As a consequence your suggestion seems a bit ambiguous to my mind.
    Thanks for the input. I will read a digest context a bit more and see if I can rephrase.

    How much trade-in value can I get from VZW or BestBuy or Amazon?
