Transferring TS files to a PC? One for the Experts.

Right, here we go.
1. I'm using iMovie4 to burn DVDs, using the PAL compression setting and the standard single layer burner in the Mac G4.
2. Coincidentally, I've just bought a Dual-Layer DVD burner for my PC.
3. The Dual-Layer burners that are available for Macs apparently have problems when connected to my type of Mac, (a G4). Also, they cost a bunch.
4. I thought it would be a good idea if I could copy the uncompressed video files that I make on my Mac, to my PC, where I can burn them to DVD with my Dual-Layer burner without any compression, thereby getting the best possible quality. I know there is a compression setting under the "Share" option which allows for no compression at all.
I believe you can't just connect a Mac and a PC together to transfer data from a Mac HDD to a PC HDD.
Question: Are the video files that are made on a Mac with iMovie, the same as and compatible with a PC? Also, would it be possible to copy those uncompressed video files on to an external hard drive using the Mac, and then import them to a PC to burn them with Nero to a dual-layer disk?
Thanks.

did you try to connect your new burner to your Mac...?
anyhow:
I believe you can't just connect a Mac and a PC together to transfer data
well, that is a everyday process in many companies, called a Local Area Network, LAN.. only problem is: a Mac does read/write PC stuff, a PC does NOT have direct access to a Mac's drive... but establishing a LAN, the Mac translates everything (PCs can be so dumb...;-) ) you just need a ethernet cable plus some settings on the PC...
the pros in the Networking Area of this forum will help you:
http://discussions.apple.com/forum.jspa?forumID=733
compression:
the "no compresion at all" is dv in iM, which is supported byPCs, ... BUT! iM puts any content into a socalled .mov container... you need to install Quicktime For Windows to make the PC accept such containers (they prefer .avi); or you need QTpro, to strip of the container and get a clean .dv file..
happy networking..

New company requirements - a really good one for the experts

What is the quickest and easiest way to stop trading as one company and start trading as a new company, under the same company code. We want to retain all the history of the customers, vendors, etc.. but not their balances. We want to start with zero balances in the new company. This has to be done very quickly so not enough time to create a new company code?
Any suggestios or if you require additional information please let me know.

Hello,
You can transfer all customers, vendors and G/L account balance amount to dummy G/L account. After transfering operation, you can see all customers, vendors and G/L account balance is zero. Then you should clear all customers and vendors open line items. After this, please check all accounts balance with using F.08 report.
Then you should post new opening balance for all G/L accounts, vendors and customers.
I think, this is the one way without using new company code.

Burak

I have been working on a procedure to send pdf email attachments and have come across a problem that is testing my patience.
I am trying to send two types of pdf, one created in oracle reports and one created in microsoft access.
The pdf i send from oracle reports opens ok and the pdf can be viewed, however the pdf from access opens ok, regonises the number of pages but it is just blank pages.
I am using oracle 9i db and the files are stored on the server in the same place. We transfer the pdf from ms access over by ftp in binary mode.

Just a question,
What was so disastrous with the base64 encoding?
If you are leaving the encoding of your file as 8bit you may run into issues with maximum line lengths imposed by SMTP standard of 1000 bytes (including the trailing two byte CRLF). I may be grasping at straws here, but if your Access generated PDF has data that exceeds the 1000 byte limit (998 bytes excluding the CRLF) you may be running into data corruption issues when the SMTP standard either truncates or breaks your long line to insert the the required CRLF characters.
You may also be interested in some of my notes on base64 encoding:
* Oracles RAW data types can hold 2G of data but PL/SQL is limited to a
* MAX LONG RAW SIZE 32760 (~32k)      BASE64 ENCODING HAS A CODE
* MAX LINE LENGTH 76                  BLOAT FACTOR OF 4:3 SUCH THAT
* MAX LINES / BLOCK 431               IT TAKES 4 BYTES TO REPRESENT
* MAX LONG RAW BLOCK SIZE 32756       EVERY 3 BYTES OF ACTUAL DATA
* Oracle's BASE64_ENCODE outputs 64 character lines instead of 76.
* MAX LINE LENGTH 64             USING A 76 CHARACTER LINE LENGTH DOES WORK BUT
* MAX LINES / BLOCK 511          RESULTS IN SOME LINES LENGTHS OF 64AND SOME 0F 76
* MAX LONG RAW BLOCK SIZE 32704 WHERE TWO ENCODING BLOCKS ARE APPENDED TOGETHER
MAX_BASE64_BLOCK_SIZE CONSTANT PLS_INTEGER := 32704 / (4 / 3);
MAX_BASE64_LINE_WIDTH CONSTANT PLS_INTEGER   := 64 / (4 / 3)

I have tried a lot to find an app or some way in email to attach multiple of pdf files in one email. I could not find anything that sends multiple pdf file in one email and still keeping the file in simple pdf format for the recipient.

I am not aware of a way except for photos that allows you to select multiple files in an email. I even checked settings in the Adobe Reader app, and it does not show that ability.

The file to download the app for Android is not working from my phone--it says that the file isn't there. However it does see the one for the Iphone (even though it can't use it). I've tried it multiple times and continue to get the same message: "NOT FOUND The requested item could not be found". I also tried through the Market application on the phone but ended-up with the same result.
I'm very computer literate and am pretty sure the problem is on your end. If this is the case then no one can download the app. I considered that perhaps because it's still in Beta that it was removed due to some other type of software issue. I would really like to use Firefox on my new Droid (2.0); when with this be available?

Firefox will not appear in the Market for most phones with incompatible hardware. You can check if your phone is supported here:
https://wiki.mozilla.org/Mobile/Platforms/Android
Even on some supported devices, a bug in the Market software prevents Firefox from showing up. This may be related to the fairly recent Android Market app update. If you go to Settings/Applications/Market and choose "Uninstall" you can uninstall the update, and then search for and install Firefox from the marketplace.
Or, if you have a supported phone, you can download the app directly by typing this address into your phone's browser: http://bit.ly/fxbeta3
(Note: To download the app directly for an AT&T phone, you will have to search for instructions on "sideloading" the APK file, since AT&T disables the option to install from non-Market sources.)

- A while back, i did something to where when i open a file in photoshop, it no longer is one window, now it's two separete ones. one for the program itself, and another for the actual file how do it get it back to where it's all one window without having to be in full screen mode? I've managed to go some time like this, but right now it's just really annoying me. HELP!!!

Just drag the small window to the top right below the toolbar, you'll see the area highlighted and when you drop it the file should dock.

How can I manage several ID on my computer, one for my iPhone and another one for the iPad of the family?

Hi everybody
Just have bought an ipad2 and i would like to manage several IDs on my computer (i.e keep my iPhone ID and create another one for the ipad to manage apps for my iPhone (4) and the apps for the iPad).
How can I resetup the iPad to create that new ID on itunes?
Thanks for your help
Jp

If you have separate iTunes accounts for the two devices then you'll need to buy 2 copies of any app that you want on both device - you can't copy or move apps from one account to another (they are tied to the account that bought/downloaded them). If you want to reset the iPad then logout of the account on it (Settings > Store and tap the id on the right-hand side) and then Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content And Settings will reset it back to factory defaults.

How can I use two single-dimensional arrays-one for the titles and array

I want to Use two single-dimensional arrays-one for the titles and one for the ID
Could everyone help me how can i write the code for it?
Flower
public class Video
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception
int[][] ID =
{ {145,147,148},
{146,149, 150} };
String[][] Titles=
{ {"Barney","True Grit","The night before Christmas"},
{"Lalla", "Jacke Chan", "Metal"} };
int x, y;
int r, c;
System.out.println("List before Sort");
for(c =0; c< 3; ++c)
for(r=0; r< 3; ++ r)
System.out.println("ID:" + ID[c][r]+ "\tTitle: " + Titles[c][r]);
System.out.println("\nAfter Sort:");
for(c =0; c< 3; ++c)
for(r=0; r< 3; ++ r)
System.out.println("ID:" + ID[c][r]+ "\tTitle: " + Titles[c][r]);

This is one of the most bizarre questions I have seen here:
public class Video
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception
int[] ID = {145,147,148, 146,149, 150};
String[] Titles= {"Barney","True Grit","The night before Christmas", "Lalla", "Jacke Chan", "Metal"};
System.out.println("List before Sort");
for(int i = 0; i < Titles.length; i++)
System.out.println("ID:" + ID[i]+ "\tTitle: " + Titles);
System.out.println("\nAfter Sort:");
for(int i = 0; c < Titles.length; i++)
System.out.println("ID:" + ID[i]+ "\tTitle: " + Titles[i]);
Generally you don't use prefix (++c) operators in you for loop. Use postfix (c++).
Prefix means that it will increment the variable before the loop body is executed. Postfix will cause it to increment after.

I have an apple ID for the South african i Tunes store. How do I get one for the US one? I want to use Mind Snacks.

You will need a valid billing address in the US and be in the US when you want to buy anything from it. You can try requesting that it be added to the South African, but ultimately it's the app's developer that will have to grant Apple a licence to sell it there : http://www.apple.com/feedback/itunes.html

Welcome to the Apple community.
You cannot download a backup from iCloud, the only way to access it is to restore to the backup with your new phone, which you should have done when you first connected it. If you restore now, you will lose all the new information you have added to your new phone.

Only you can make that determination. All things being equal the 2.5 GHz model is slower.
