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

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 new TV shows rental with iTunes and Old Apple TV

Hello all. Been trying to find some FAQs or something but think only got partial answers, so I hope I can get some here, using 'Glee' as an example:
1. Can the (old) Apple TV rent new TV shows available? E.G. Glee Season 2?
2. If I use iTunes 10 to rent an episode (of Glee HD), can I play it on my TV via my (old) Apple TV? Like in the form some kind of streaming?
Thanks and cheers

You may be right, I'm just thinking there is no movie rental "movie menu" option on the current Apple tv either, but one can still rent movies.
Unless the tv show downloads are specifically designed to block usage on certain devices or there is something different about them, I would have thought that tv show rentals could be enabled at the itms end by adding a rental option on the specific tv show page, just as movies are done now.
If I were in the US, I probably wouldn't be holding my breathe for tv show rentals but I'm not convinced I'd rule them out either.

Question about the new Yoga 10 HD+

Hi
A few questions about the new Yoga 10 HD+ which I hope you can answer.
I bought the old model last year. Loved the design and long battery time but a few major issues made me return it.
Somewhere I read that it can't read NTFS over USB so I presume that's the same with an NTFS formatted microSD card?
Can it read exFAT formatted microSD cards?
Anyone observed issues regarding audio over bluetooth?
(I know BT isn't exactly High End HiFi but the old Yoga 10 for some odd reason - most likely a driver issue which nobody cared to fix - sounded *much* worse with quite noticeably distortion while both my phone and a cheap noname tablet I have zero fidelity issues - no matter which of my bluetooth audio devices I tried aptX or not)
So to avoid buying this only to return it too I really would like to see if I can have my questions answered before buying it.
While I love the form factor and long running time the above issues are just two mayor dealbreakers to me. Bad audio quality = no joy listening to spotify, local MP3s etc. No NTFS or exFAT = no large movies.
My old noname android tablet really could use an upgrade so I'm really curious whether this can be it or I should look at the competition and sacrify form factor and battery runtime.
Thanks in advance.
EDIT:
If it's not supporting either NTFS or exFAT on the microSD have anyone tried ext3 and/or ext4?
I mean with Androids Linux roots it should be a nobrainer to support at least when it comes to royalties unlike NTFS or exFAT where there *might* be some issues with Microsoft.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Thanks!
OK. Seems I should just stay clear of this and look elsewhere
Sony for sure I know support exFAT. I'm usure about Samsung. Odd it seems so hard to find out. File sizes of +4 GB should be taken for granted - it's not 199x anymore...
Oh well. Wonder whether to just go for one from the competition or perhaps just save the money and wait until 64 bit catches on. Rumors is that the next Nexus 8 will be 64 bit... (I really don't expect an answer on this)

Question about the new i5/i7 processors

I have been wondering if anybody had a definitive answer as to whether the new i5 and i7 processors are the desktop chips or their mobile counterparts? I know previous gen imacs use mobile parts but I've heard conflicting reports about the new 27 inch imacs. Some people say they are using desktop parts now while others claim they are still mobile processors...does anybody here know? I can't seem to find the information because I'm not really a techie so I don't really understand intels system for identifying their processors. The reason I ask is I recently placed an order for the i5 imac, I was comparing some i5/i7 benchmarking tests and ultimately decided the i5 was more than up to the job...however, now I don't even know if I was comparing the right chips (I didn't know there were different versions of the i5 and i7). Also, I had some concern with the heat issue, from what I've read the i7 produces tremendous heat so I also factored that in to my decision. I know Apple makes quality stuff (I love my MBP) and they placed the GPU and CPU on opposite ends of the imac, AND it has 3 fans AND the back is basically a HUGE heatsink lol...but I still wonder if the heat will cause the i7 to have a shorter expected life than the i5?(which is also pretty hot I guess). I thought I had my mind made up but this is turning out to be a very confusing process for me. If heat will effect the life cycle with only a relatively small power boost I'll stick with the i5...but if the versions of the chips they are using are mobile or not going to have this problem than I don't know what to do lol. Also, could you replace the i5 with an i7 later on down the road? AHHHH....can somebody help I'm spending so much money here I don't want to make a mistake :/

thanks for the help everyone. After reviewing all the information I think I'm gonna go with the i7...it will be $180 for me because of a student discount so in the end I guess thats not too much to pay for the increased speed and hyper-threading (which I probably will see no benefit from now but down the road...who knows). I had to cancel my order for the i5 anyway because after going into the Apple store last night to fondle the 27 inch imacs (which I hadn't seen in person yet) I realized I did not like the new keyboard ( don't get me wrong its a nice product but I use the Adobe CS4 software for digital art and animation so so lacking a numerical keypad for keystroke shortcuts is a little impractical for me).
Since I had to cancel and reorder anyway I'm now thinking I may as well upgrade to the i7 and be done with the doubting my decision lol. I haven't pulled the trigger yet but I will probably order today. Apparently the i5 and i7 have the same wattage so I guess if one will overheat the other will too so that kills that debate in my my mind.
BTW if anybody has not yet seen the 27 inch imacs in person yet they are behemoths...beautiful behemoths. I can't wait to have that much canvas space to paint in Photoshop.
Thanks again everyone.

Two separate questions about the new s3 update

Okay, so I just recently updated my s3 and so far I love everything about it, very nice job. Just two things bother me about it (not sure if the second one has to do with the update or not)
Firstly, when you receive a text message it pops up on your lock screen with about the first sentence of the message. Now that's a big problem for me, I enjoy my privacy, so if I'm texting someone, get up and leave me phone wherever I am at the time, someone could pick up my phone and instantly see who I'm talking to and what about without any type of security (I have the pin lock). If there is a way to disable it I cannot find it anywhere, maybe I'm not looking hard enough, any help would be appreciated.
Secondly, when sent a picture message instead of the message itself from the person sending it I get a message from "Me" or my own phone number saying "You've got a new PIX or FLIX message! To see it, visit *insert the vzw site here*. When going to the site it asks me to sign up and sync my phone to the cloud, which I do not want at all. Is this something with my service or the new update? It's quite infuriating to be honest. If either of these is true, is there a way to disable this feature and continue receiving pictures/video messages "normally"? PS: Picture/Video messaging worked all normal before I updated.
Thank you so much for any insight or help you can provide.

If you are using the stock Text messaging App. Open the app (while on the screen that shows all your people you have text, (not an individual person) click on your menu icon, the go to Settings> scroll down to >Notification settings>Notifications The box should be unchecked, or if it is checked there is a "Preview message" option that you can uncheck. That will take it off of the lock screen. Hth.
***Sorry, did not see the link that Tikibar posted ref the first question. If you leave the "Notifications" box checked, you can customize the rest of your notifications...and just uncheck the "Preview message" box.

Two quick questions about the new iMacs...

I work at a church, and this summer, we are breaking ground on a new building. I am hoping to get a new iMac to go in the new sound booth to run the Power Point. Two questions:
Would a church get a special discount when buying from Apple?
Did I hear somewhere that the new iMacs support an external monitor (a different output than the main monitor)?
Thanks!
Matthew

<<Would a church get a special discount when buying from Apple?
Did I hear somewhere that the new iMacs support an external monitor (a different output than the main monitor)?>>
I know Apple offers education and government discounts... I'm not aware of discounts for church organizations.
Yes, the iMac CD offers support for dual monitors, mirrored and extended.

I may have a relativly dumb question about the newer iTunes

ok, I got a video iPod for my birthday, which was in the first week of august, and I put iTunes on my comp, but I haven't updated iTunes since because I have been reading there were so many bugs with the iTunes they released. Then I see they came out with a newer version, but I haven't downloaded it yet because I was afraid about the problems and bugs. My friend told me that apple fixed the problems, but I read a thing or two here about people having trouble with it.
So I guess the question I'm building up to is, should I still be on the catious side and not download the newer iTunes, or is the newer iTunes ok?
Me being computer illiterate, I'm not too sure what my comps insides are running other than Windows XP home edition

Downloading videos on 7.0.2 hasn't worked as well as everyone had hoped. I still can't get mine to work, but i do know a few people who haven't had trouble with the newer itunes.

Two questions about my new Mac Pro

Just got my new Mac Pro up and running and have two questions (issues)
First, I had to buy the DVI to ADC Display adapter to hook up my Cinema Display but now I can't turn the computer on from the monitor like I use to. Is that right? It's no big deal to have to turn it on at the computer itself, just wondering if anybody else is having this happen.
Also, the audio out at the back of the computer doesn't work. I've tried plugging in my speaker as well as my headset and nothing. If I plug either of those into the headset jack in the front of the computer all is well. Any thoughts?
Otherwise, I sure do love my Mac Pro!
Thanks.

I had to buy the DVI to ADC Display adapter to hook up my Cinema Display but now I can't turn the computer on from the monitor like I use to. Is that right?
ADC has pins for power control and the power light. DVI does not have these signals so the display's power button cannot turn on the computer when used with a DVI to ADC adapter.

Question about the new JAVA Update J2SE 5.0 Release 3

Here is some info about this update:
Java 2 Platform, Standard Edition (J2SE) 5.0 Release 3 allows applications and applets developed for the J2SE 5.0 platform to run on Mac OS X v 10.4.2 and later.
This update does NOT CHANGE the DEFAULT VERSION of Java on your Mac from Java 1.4.2 to J2SE 5.0, though Java applications that require J2SE 5.0 may specifically request it. You can change the preferred Java version for applications and applets by using the new Java Preferences utility. This utility is installed by the J2SE 5.0 update at /Applications/Utilities/Java/J2SE 5.0/.
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=302412
HERE IS MY QUESTION---
This update makes me nervous cause I don't know much about Java. IF I change my default version to this new 5.0 will it mean that some of the older Java stuff on the web won't work? Should I just download this and ignore it? What should I do about this update?
Thanks for the help!
Renée

I too seem to be suffering issues with loading web pages after the 10.4.3/Java 5.0 update. I have reinstalled both updates, changed the java settings, emptied all the caches, and tried various combinations thereof, and I still have problems with web pages loaded. most of the problems appear to be related to rendering frames and images - In fact a couple of web sites I navigate to (upon looking at the source for the page" state "It appears your browser does not support frames." I think this is something broken in the latest release. Unfortunately, I cannot reinstall the latest copy of Safari, because the installer states "This version of Safari cannot be installed. It requires version 10.4.2." I guess I am in a pickle until Apple comes out with another update. BTW I have some pages that Safari will not render but IE running on the same box will. I also noticed that the problem propagated to other applications that use Java....For instance the Dashboard widget from google (Google Maps) no longer renders the tiled (framed?) map pieces...instead you get the ubiquitous "?" icon.

Question about the new iMac

Please Note: I am extremely sorry if this is placed in the wrong location. It says to post here if it doesn't fit the other categories.
Now I asked before about the Mac Mini, the features and etc... Well since I saw the August keynote and the new iMovie you guys presented, it made me want to start making the Mac as my new computer. The thing is, I am short on cash and have a few question between the First and Second versions.
1. My new computer will probably have to last 5-7 years, and I need to know, will the cheapest iMac be able to actually go that far? I mean I have read how some mac's that were purchased about that time still run perfectly good today.
2. Since Leopard will have bootcamp fully integrated and Windows can run at native speed, Will games like WoW (of course this is only an example, I know they have a mac version) run really good on it?
3. Say I buy my Mac in a retailer such as Best Buy, how will I go about a Hard Drive upgrade? I saw you can upgrade the memory, but they mentioned nothing as to a Hard Drive upgrade.
4. If I want to actually customize my mac (because if theres no way to upgrade in question 3...) can I do it by going to a Apple Store or do I have to order online?
5. Would 1 GB of ram be good or will I have to upgrade later to 2 GB to run good?
6. So in the longer run, would buying the 2.4 GHz Mac be better for a 5-7 year term or will the 2.0 GHz version do just as fine. (Please keep in mind that cash is hard to get... It might be until March until I purchase... This will give me an idea.)
I just want to make a good decision when buying a Mac and get rid of this trouble maker I have now.. Of course going with a Mac is already a good decision.
Thanks and waits for reply.

Hello darkpontiac
My you have lots of questions, so I'll cover as many as I can.
This is as good a place as any to ask about the iMac's.
Look at this link and you will see the you can have an iMac and make payments.
"The Apple Store"
1. I would buy the best from the upper end and Apple Care to get the longest life from it.
2. I don't run WoW, but others have reported that it runs fine even on the Early Core Duo Intel iMac's.
3. You can order a larger HD from Apple, look dow at "Configure-to-order options" in this link.
Intel iMac Spec's
4. Yes see #3 then up grade the ram yourself up to 4GB on the new models.
5. 2 GB of ram is great for most users, the current is shipped with 1GB and you can upgrade in steps of 2, 3 and 4 GB later if you wish.
6. Yes
Sorry it took me so long to respond, but I'm printing out some vacation photo's from iPhoto for the wife, jumping to e-mail back and forth with daughter, downloading some new CD's I just bought and replying to your post all at the same time on this 20 month old Early Core Duo with 2GB of ram. It's not having any trouble at all playing my loud classic rock with iTunes, but I'm working like h...!
Hope that Helps!

Question about the new Mail shiped with Lion

Hi,
I've this quick one to the Dev's which have already worked with Lion's Mail.
Would it be possible to do simple file copy from Snow Mail to Lion Mail ?
I am not asking about the migration possibilyties during upgrade because my current MBP is a Core Duo one and therefore can't use them for Lion.
My MBP 2006 needs to be upgraded soon :-) and will take place in the comming weeks. And I am wondering how to transfer my current mails to the new platform OS since Lion Mail is upgraded as well.
Is the Filesystem Layout from Lion Mail the same as in Snow Mail which allows me to do a plain FS copy ?
Thxs in advance
olbo

Hi,
I've just spent a good hour or so trying to work out how I can move my existing emails and mail accounts from my MacBook Pro (Snow Leopard) machine to my brand new iMac (Lion) machine.
Have not had much luck.
I copied over ~\Library\Preferences\com.apple.mail.plist and the files in ~\Library\Mail and ~\Mail Downloads.
When I start mail in Lion, it asks me for new email account information so has no idea of my existing accounts. Once I re-enter one of my email accounts, I get all my old folders but all the emails are missing....
Is there a simple way to copy accross the accounts and existing mails. I have tried the Migration Assistant, but I dont want to end up with a new account on the machine just to get the mail accross.
I'm pretty sure I did the same process between two snow leopard machines and it worked fine....
thanks for any help...

Question about the New ACR Corrections for Tonal Range

I find the new set of controls for tonal range in CS7 to be excellent! However, I am curious about what controls what. Black and Shadows work as I would expect but Highlight and Whites do not, at least in terms of traditional photography.
Highlights and Shadows are grouped together as I would expect, Black and White also. But if we are to continue with that progression, White should control the clipping point and Highlights the values a 2 stops or so above middle gray. I would expect Highlights to be similar to Brightness in CS5 except better behaved. It's reversed. Highlights =Recovery in CS5
It's confusing so I am suggesting that White control clipping and Highlight the upper values.

Thank you Patti for your response.
I think we are coming to this from different perspectives. Being so close to development of the current upgrade, I appreciate your insights as to how these controls work. I, on the other hand, am coming from long experience as a photographer and printer, exceeding 50 years at this point. So I have some legacy points of view, which is why I posted.
I spent this evening looking more closely. Here is a summary.
I messed with an excellent example for looking at this question, and I found something interesting. You can fix an image which already has clipping far easier with Highlights, but you cannot force an image with white values well below clipping into clipping using Highlights. The reverse is true with White. So, to fix a white clip, use Highlights, to force a white clip, use White.
Blacks and Shadows are different. You can both force and fix a Black clip with Black, but Shadows, while possible, has much less range. So Shadows are kind of vernier on Blacks. This is different than Whites.
I was basing my OP on only fixing clipping points, that is, bringing an image out of clipping, but not forcing into clipping.
So, indeed, what you and Jeff point out is closer to correct than my initial assertions. Yours are based on a broader range controls than possible in analog days. In naming these controls, one winds up with a foot in both the digital side and the old analog side, which gave rise to the names and the meanings.
So thanks to both you and Jeff for taking this up. It forced me into looking more closely at my conclusions, and while they weren't wrong outright, they were inadequate to the present state of the technology. Sometimes, experience can actually get in the way!

Some questions about the new Galaxy SIII

Ok, I am looking into the new SIII and there are a few details that I can not seem to find the answers to and considering I work at a Verizon Retailer I would like to know as much as possible on this particular phone. Especially since I am thinking about purchasing it myself.
1. How are the speakers? Are they loud enough to hear over a group of people talking and still get good quality sound?
2. How easy is the screen to crack and if it cracks does the entire screen "spiderweb" like the iPhone immediately does or will it do what my Breakout did and crack in one weak spot but still work fine and make it so the rest isn't as susceptible to cracking the next time its dropped.
3. How "music oriented" is this device? I am playing Pandora almost 90% of my day and I want a good phone for music in particular.
4. Random and I'm not sure if anyone can answer this, what is the quality of the voice recording software? How accurate/ sensitive is it? I like to record my own songs and if I could record some of my ideas onto my phone it would be so much more convenient.
5. Video and camera are supposed to be amazing? Is that true?
6. How is the memory/ storage? One of the biggest problems i have with cellphones is my storage is constantly full. What are the odds of me filling this phone?
I'm sure there will be other questions that I will have but for right now this is all I can think of. Thank you so much for your time.
Katie

What kind of phone do you have now? That knowledge would help when answering, but my input:
1. Speaker is about the same as any smartphone. You won't get "full sound" without external speaker(s). Bluetooth headphones or earplugs are the way to go.
2. There is at least one thread about displays breaking. I believe most of those people were carrying it in their pants pockets. I carry mine in a holster on my belt. I posted a link to a video from a site that "torture tests" phones. The SG3 was dropped several times and did not break. Could it? Sure.
3. I'd say it's as set up for music as other phones.
4. Haven't used voice recording apps.
5. Camera and video are excellent.
6. Buy the 32GB version. If you need more memory than that, buy extra memory.
Sorry I can't offer more.

I have a question about the new ipod touch

I just got a 32GB ipod touch a week and one day ago and now i hear that a new one with more features is coming out. This is'nt fair since the new one has more features but costs $100 less than when i bought mine. Since i bought it recently is there anyways i can return it and get the new one instead? My ipod is still brand new without any scratches at all since i put a case on it as soon as i took it out of the box.

I purchased a refurbished iPod touch 8g about 10 days ago. I am thinking of sending it back. The question is it really worth the hassle? In Canada the 8g is going to sell for $259. I think I will loose 10% restocking fee plus shipping it back. Thoughts ??
Is it worth it?
Should I just upgrade the software and call it a day? Or get the new one.
Ideas...thoughts...opions???
