Two questions about the future 17" display

1. Will we have still an option for 1680x1050? Is there any official info about that?
2. Is matte screen officially out of the picture?
I'm PC user for life, but there is none 17" notebooks besides VAIO and MBP that meets my standards and since VAIO's are not available with matte screen I was willing to buy a MBP and run Win XP in it. But now I read that it's not available with matte screen and 1680x1050 resolution and both are must features for me as I'm graphic desinger and I can't stand any random extra shapes on my screen. 1680x1050 for reason that 1920x1200 is way too much for 17" screen.

Welcome to Apple Discussions!
1. Will we have still an option for 1680x1050? Is there any official info about that?
Only someone with a time machine could tell you.
2. Is matte screen officially out of the picture?
Only someone with a time machine could tell you.
And the answer to both these questions is that I'm not talking about Apple's Time Machine software.
Apple's resolutions are quite sharp on the 17" matte displays. I've never had a problem with them.
Also I would add this:
http://discussions.apple.com/click.jspa?searchID=-1&messageID=7116662
If the displays on the current 17" won't suffice, look to see if the older 17" with matte displays do suffice for you. If neither does, visit http://www.apple.com/feedback/ for suggestions.
I would add, higher resolution on displays does NOT mean higher image quality. I've seen cases where too many pixels per inch were added, actually worsened the image quality of the display.

Two questions about the new iWeb

Hi
I've got two questions about the new iWeb.
1. Is it possible to blog online now? Meaning adding a new blog entry without having to be on your own Mac? This is a feature I've been waiting for since iWeb first was released.
2. Is it possible to choose the format of images? Earlier editions had the option to "optimize" images but that meant it changed it into .png meaning the site got a lot heavier than if .jpg was used. And since I have relatives who still only have an isdn connection I need to be able to have the website as light as possible.
thanks

Ah well... thanks for the quick answer

Questions about the future directions of InfoPath and Microsoft Access

Because I have been confused about the future directions of InfoPath and Access, I wrote a short blog post, which I have pasted below. My question is, can Microsoft provide some more guidance on Access vs InfoPath? If Access is indeed the
the future direction, can you please provide some pointers to resources that can help us transition.
A Short Review of MS Access, SharePoint ,InfoPath (2013)
After the November 2012 SharePoint Conference in Las Vegas (#spc12) there were a number of blog posts and people saying that Access 2013 was great and would be replacing InfoPath.
Marc Anderson and
Ruven
Gotz have short posts summarizing #SPC12 and touch on the subject of InfoPath and Access. I also spoke with several individuals shortly after #SPC12 and they were excited about Access 2013.
Since I rely heavily on InfoPath for much of what I do, I wanted to kick the tires and see what everyone was talking about. First, a few notes about SharePoint 2013 and Office 2013.
Microsoft should rename Access: If you have tried to
bing the word Access, then you know that the search results are overwhelming, because the word "access" is used for so many other purposes.
Use the RTM version of Office 2013! I was performing my investigations by leveraging the Office 365 Beta and the Office Applications that come with it. Not much was working! After I uninstalled the Beta
version of Office 2013 and Installed the RTM version everything seemed to work.
Windows 7 and IE 9.0: The drag & drop that is being touted as
"manna from heaven" seems to work well with Firefox, Safari, Chrome, and IE 10, but it does
not work with IE 9!
Non Microsoft browsers are still second class citizens (except for the drag & drop): Microsoft has finally done away with the Active X's for datasheet view (that is brilliant!) One can now see the newly
minted datasheet view in many browsers. But I still find that one needs to be in IE to do a number of key manual opeartions. For example pasting numerous rows of data from a spreadsheet into the new sheet view works only in IE.
Access 2013
Microsoft Access is touted as a non developer tool. I know a number of people who are on the business side and love Access. These people will like the renewed energy that Microsoft has applied to Access. One should note that conceptually
this functionality existed in SharePoint 2010. Here is what I see that is new:
+The new version works better:Although I haven't tested it fully, it seems that many more features that work on the Desktop version of Access, now work in the published Web Application which is hosted by SharePoint 2013.
+The new version has fairly robust browser based forms: End users can now fill in data using forms that are rendered in the browser.
+The published version that resides in SharePoint now uses its own SQL server tables. So the engine appears to be SQL Server, not a modified version of Access built for a server. This stands to be quite robust, but I imagine
that some quirks will surface due to new model.
The limitations are:
- Access is pretty much its own application and does not integrate with SharePoint building blocks. For example, an Access table is not easy to integrate with a SharePoint workflow. Further, although Access forms now are visible
in a browser, they are not nearly as rich as InfoPath forms. InfoPath forms cannot easily integrate with the Access tables. In order to integrate SharePoint features and Access, one needs to tie SharePoint list(s) to Access as data sources.
This overcomplicates the model and one may very well run into synchronization issues.
In short, although I believe there will be some people who will be happy with newly minted Access, I do not think that Access will be able to replace InfoPath and Workflow technologies. I do agree that Microsoft does not seem to have put much energy into
InfoPath. If they leave a vacuum in this space, then others may very well take over, for instance Nintex Forms.

Although I agree with the comments made by Ruven and Marc after the conference please note that those blog posts are their own personal opinions and that they don't work for Microsoft. A lot of people have asked Microsoft to clarify the future of InfoPath
and the response up until now has been a deafening silence. In my opinion speculations about Access replacing InfoPath are premature.
I should also point out that most of your comments about Access 2013 above are actually about Access Services in SharePoint Server 2013. Access Services are NOT Access they are a shared service offering in SharePoint that convert and publish Access
databases and forms. As you point out once an Access database is published through Access services it is converted to SQL Server and no longer resides in Access. Of course I don't work for Microsoft either so these are all just my personal opinion.
Having said that I doubt you will get the confirmation/response that you are hoping for from any official Microsoft channel.

Two questions about the NavBar.

Hi!
Two questions please:
1.
I'm binding my NavBar control to a simple Array() declared at my class.
When my class gets the event "applicationComplete" it calls a function which adds a few items to that array.
The NavBar updates correctly.
After a while I add more items to that array, but the NavBar doesn't update (no buttons added).
Should I call any function to make it update and add buttons?
2.
I did a test: By looping, I've created 20 items in an array which is bound to the NavBar and it seems like the NavBar adds these 20 items in a row without checking if it's becoming wider than the stage.
Is there any way to tell it "max items to display", and make it have some sort of "right/left" buttons? Let's say like IE or Firefox 's tabbing system.
See, my app is a bit complex and I can't just put static buttons up.
Thank you all!

Thanks Michael,
Look, I'm trying to use the NavBar for an application and the NavBar will be used to navigate through windows.
Simply as that (:
Now, you do know the Firefox or Internet Explorer browsers, right?
When you open 20 browsing windows on them, the tab bar (they call it the "tab bar") is filled with buttons but shows only few of them, not all of them because there's no space on the screen.
Yet, this tab bar puts two buttons from the left and the right, so the user can navigate in the tab bar to choose the current window.
How do I do that?

Two questions about the Nokia 920 to Nokia experts...

Hi,
I am considering the Nokia 920 for replacing my Apple 4. However I have two questions that nobody in a phoneshop can answer. Furthermore I can test it myself as about all Nokia 920 in shops seems to be a dummy for showroom purposes.
Therefore I would appreciate it if somebody can answer these two questions:
1. Which versions of MS-Office can be read on the Nokia 920?
2. I have heard there are some difficulties with the Nokia 920 to watch Youtube movies. Is this true? If so, what is the solution of Nokia. If have heard to load a Metro app that solves these Youtube problems.
I have seen many videos by now about the Nokia 920 but none does cover really these questions. Thanks for taking the time to write me an answer.
Regards,
Jan

Two questions about the PSD file format specicaition

I'm a programmer dealing with a project to parse PSD files. When reading the official file format specification, I found that some fields of the file are not clarified:
1. There is a rectangle structure containing 4 fields: top, left, buttom, right. I wanna know whether these 4 fields can be negative values and is there a rule that the buttom shoud be larger than the top and the right shoud be larger than the left
2. The PSD file contains a color mode section. But if the color mode is RGB, the color mode section contians no data but a 4-byte length field whose value is set to 0. This is true for files in RGB mode 8-bit channel. But after convert the files to RGB mode 32-bit channel using photoshop, the whole color mode section is no long exist.
These two questions may be somehow technical, I would be thankful if someone can give me a hand.

1) was covered in the documentation at one time. Yes, many of them can be negative, that's why they're signed values. Valid rectangles will have the bottom greater than the top, and the right greater than the left. But you can also have empty rectangles, and sometimes invalid rectangles (because the values don't matter).
2) Not sure what you're asking... color mode is just a single enumeration for RGB, CMYK, etc.

Two Questions about the SRP527W

Hello all,
The SRP527 is working fine with VPN however I can't ping my local netwerk on the client side.
The IP addres range is the same as from the remote side only start from 240.
My internal IP addresses are:
On the side where the router is:
10.10.56.1 <> default gateway from the router
10.10.56.3 <> a Server all the devices there are working and can map to local drives.
Local:
After connect the VPN I get IP address 10.10.56.240 who also become my default gateway.
Ping to a local printer on 10.10.56.110 give a reply from 10.10.56.1 destination can't be reached
In the client software I can mark Allow local LAN Network. It make no difference still not possible to ping local.
Second question:
Can I remote install the new firmware without getting problems with my VPN line? Can I still acces the router from remote even after update the firmware?
Thanks for your time to read this

Hello Luis Arias,
Thank you for giving me support on the issue.
About the suggestion to change the subnet mask on one side, which I did:
In the router a start address 10.10.56.240 is set with a subnet mask 255.255.0.0 when try to change that subnet mask to 255.255.255.0 the network address is already existent.
Playing with the IP number does not give met the final result 10.10.56.240 with subnet 255.255.255.0 so I needed to leave it with the subnet mask 255.255.0.0
I changed the client side to 10.10.56.20 with subnet 255.255.255.0 and marked the selection allow local LAN.
After make the connection with the VPN I get 10.10.56.240 as local address which also becomes my default gateway.
Still not possible to ping the local printer 10.10.56.110 and get from 10.10.56.1 destination can't be reached
The 10.10.56.1 is the VPN router default gateway address.
Hope it give you enough information to help to solve my problem,
Greetings,
Ronald

Two questions about the HP Envy 700-230ea before I buy

I'm looking at buying an HP Envy 700-230ea from PC World. The specs I've seen don't quite answer two questions I need to resolve before committing myself.
1. Is the Windows 8.1 OS installed the 64 bit version (I need it to be)
2. The machine comes with a 2TB HDD. But I need to add in a second 2TB HDD. Is there scope to do this within the machine?
This question was solved.
View Solution.

From your UK HP Site I'd say it comes with 8.1/ 64bit and it has 3 internal hard disk drive bays; 2 external optical drive bays.
Link http://www8.hp.com/uk/en/products/desktops/product-detail.html?oid=6753464#!tab%3Dspecs
Be forewarned HP ENVY desktops do not come with a owners manual, just quick pictorial international set up guides and there is no owner manuals available. The Windows 8.1 OS most can master, but for the computer itself no manual, it's like buying a brand new car trying to figure out all the switches, levers and indicator lamps. Most are easy to figure out but some are not But I would contact PC World and make sure it has the 64 bit OS.

Two questions about the E1000 and Xbox 360

Okay this is going to be a two part questions. ( both my friend and I have the E1000 )
1st
My friend and his brother are having issues with their Xbox 360's. My friend has his xbox set to dmz mode and his brother is just using I guess we'll say the default way. And when my friend is playing any game his brother tries to play call of duty black ops and the nat says strict or moderate. Now I was reading about port range triggering and how to set it up but there are different ways some people are doing it. I've seen a few videos that the people had different settings. Whats the correct way that my friend and his brother can both play xbox 360 and not have any nat issues?
( BTW their both hook-up wired )
2nd
I'm currently using dmz settings as-well ( wireless ) My home users only uses a few devices like laptops, ipods, kindle, and just one Xbox. Now I want the optimal performance I can get. I'm currently downloading mass effect ( games on demand xbox 360 ) The game size is 6.83gb and taking awhile to download. I say I've been downloading it for over 40 minutes and I'm currently at 77%, is this normal speed? Or can I boost my speed a bit? My Internet Provider is Cablevision in NJ "Optimum Online" download is 15mbps download is 5mbps.

Xbox live will only let you connect 1 xbox for every WAN IP address. Your ISP gives you only 1 dynamic public IP which will be pass down from the modem to the router. The router gives your other devices private ip addresses.
Strictly speaking, only 1 xbox will be allowed by xbox live to connect because of the reason you only have 1 public ip. You will be lucky if you can connect two.
Anyway, you can try the steps below:
Access the page of your router
Click Admin Tab, disable UpNP.
Then trigger ports: 3074/53/88/22728/33233
2869/10280-10284/1900/1024
Click Applications and Gaming Center Tab
Click Port Range Trigger
Ex:
Application name: xbox1, xbox2
xbox1--enter port 3074 on all 4 boxes and click enable
xbox2--enter 10280 on start box and 10284 on end box, same for the other 2 boxes and click enable.
Enter all number and on the applications boxes and save

Question about the new IMac display 2012 and pollution

The IMac late 2010 there is the problem that the fan behind the screen and glass environment pollution such as smoke, candle soot, heating dirt etc fans were absorbed and resulted in contamination streaks on the inside of the glass cover.
A new display technology is applied to the new IMac in 2012 and thus achieved a higher density of the display. Can Apple confirm that with this new display, the old dirt from the inside of the glass are excluded and will no longer occur?
Thank you for answer

Good question, but you're not talking to Apple here, just users like yourself, so I doubt you'll get a definitive answer.

Two questions about the new Apple TVs optical output

Question #1: Does the new Apple TV output audio out of BOTH the HDMI and optical outputs at the same time? I have my Apple TV connected to my TV by HDMI, but I'd also like to connect it to my stereo separately for times when I only want to use Apple TV as airplay speakers.
Question #2: Is this the best option for converting Apple TV's optical output to a stereo that lacks an optical input? All I want is a stereo signal.
http://www.monoprice.com/products/product.asp?cid=104&cp_id=10423&cs_id=1042302&pid=6884&seq=1&format=2

I'm posting a follow-up here, in case anyone else is considering this optical to analog converter. I bought the one from monoprice I linked to above. I've only had it for a day, but it's exactly what I was looking for.
I've now got two simultaneous outputs from my Apple TV:
- HDMI audio/video connected to my TV, which feeds one input in my stereo.
- Optical audio output connected to the monoprice converter, which feeds another input in my stereo.
This makes for a great setup, giving me the ability to listen to streaming audio without using my TV.
So... to answer my own questions:
#1 - yes, Apple TV feeds both outputs at the same time (HDMI audio/video and optical audio). There is nothing to 'switch' or set up.
#2 - yes, that monoprice converter is probably the best option for converting optical to analog. It's relatively cheap (under $30). It's very small. And it works perfectly.

Two questions about the 10.4.7 PPC update

1. After installation, my PowerBook booted TWICE before I regained control of my computer. Did this happen to others? Was some sort of firmware update included in this update? (I was running 10.4.6 prior to this)
2. On versiontracker.com, one user pretends that two-finger tapping (to simulate control-clicking), an Intel Mac feature, has been enabled, but I can't find any preference for this in Trackpad preferences. Has this feature been enabled for high-res November 2005 PowerBooks?

Hello,
1. After installation, my PowerBook booted TWICE
before I regained control of my computer. Did this
happen to others? Was some sort of firmware update
included in this update? (I was running 10.4.6 prior
to this)
Yes, the second reboot is normal. This happened during the 10.4.6 update as well.
Quite normal for 10.4.6 and 10.4.7.
So, don't worry it's fine.
2. On versiontracker.com, one user pretends that
two-finger tapping (to simulate control-clicking), an
Intel Mac feature, has been enabled, but I can't find
any preference for this in Trackpad preferences. Has
this feature been enabled for high-res November 2005
PowerBooks?
This is a MacBook feature. It's not enabled on my last generation iBook G4 either.
Some users get their machines confused. They interchange names out of confusion at times.
I suspect he is just confused. Don't panic
Hope this helps.

Two Questions about the Vision M: Zencasts and Organizing So

HI! If you can help me with these two issues I would really appreciate it. These are the only two major problems I have with my Vision M?. The first is that my songs, when I go to play them from the album are not in the order that they are on the CD, they are alphabitized... can I make it so all the songs are listed and will play in the order they appear on the CD?2. I am trying to do Zen casts, but I press the subscribe for free button and my Zencast organizer loads and then I recieve a message that says "subscription unsucessful, a connection could not be madewith the channel's server." I tried different zencasts and all wound up with the same result. Can you guys help me? I would really appreciate it!Thanks, AliciaMessage Edited by lillysha25 on 02-3-200703:23 PM

<strike>2. Is there any way to edit the tag information of a group of songs together once they're on the player? Change the genre of an entire album, for example. I'm sure I was able to do it before, but I can't any more.</strike> - Ignore this one, got it! Duh!Message Edited by eruanna on 02-25-200706:5 AM
