Can Pages 09 be purchased stand alone? And Online

I dont have Mac stores near me and can't afford to wait for it to arive where I live if I buy the physical version online.
Can it be purchased as a software for downloading?
And can Pages be purchased stand alone? I dont need numbers, etc
thanks

You can indeed purchase a download-only version of iWork -- just download the free trial, and in the trial version there is a procedure for purchasing a license online.
Apple does not sell Pages separately from the other iWork suite applications. (But at $79, it's still pretty cheap for an extremely functional word processor/page layout app.)

Purchased stand-alone copy of LR in 10/2013. Got a message that Development module is disabled.

I upgraded from LR 4 to LR5, purchasing a stand-alone version of Lightroom in 10/2014 (less than three months ago) for my PC. In accordance with instructions from Adobe HELP, I downloaded a second copy of the software to a new Mac in preparation for switching computers and discontinued using the original PC version. I had to hire a consultant to assist with the transfer of photos due to lack of specific instructions from Adobe regarding a PC to Mac transition, but by early December the transition had been accomplished and LR (now 5.7) was functioning for approximately two weeks. Shortly thereafter the Development module was disabled with a message that I needed to renew my membership to reactivate the Develop Module! I never had a membership... I purchased the stand-alone version of the software and wish to use it rather than the subscription version.
Added to all my problems with the transition is that we hosted guests for the holiday season and I was unable to show them any of my recent photographs due to the Develop module being disabled. (My guess is that Adobe is not going to compensate me for this inconvenience!)
As far as I can determine, this is nothing that I have brought on myself. Adobe allows the download of two copies of the LR software and I haven't exceeded that, and I called Adobe Help specifically to ask how to accomplish the PC to Mac transition and was told to download the LR software to the Mac.
So how do I reactivate the Development module without paying additional money for a subscription?

But to answer your question directly, you have installed the creative cloud installation of Lightroom which requires different licensing. You have to uninstall and then download from the standalone website.

MP3 CDs from iTunes on stand-alone DVD players

I was reading a couple of threads in this forum on that topic and here are my observations:
Until now I have been burning MP3 CDs in iTunes only as a backup, not for actual listening.
Recently we have purchased a rather cheap stand-alone Grundig DVD player for watching movies, it is also MP3 CD-R/DVD-R compatible. It will play any CD-R or DVD-R with MP3 files on it that has been burned in the standard ISO 9660 or Mac-Hybrid format, either on a PC or using Toast.
The player will not recognize any MP3 CD burned using iTunes 4.x or 6.x, either on an iBook G3 or a Powerbook G4. This is not due to bad or cheap media, all of those CDs show up in iTunes and play correctly. I'm using Sony CD-Rs and I haven't had a single problem with hundreds of them in the past few years. I use them mostly for data backup or for sending client's files to a print office.
If I copy the data from an iTunes MP3 CD to Toast and burn them as an MP3 CD using Toast, the CD will play fine in the DVD player.
So, my summary:
There's definitely something wrong with the way iTunes creates an MP3 CD.
Personally, I don't care much though. If I ever "desperately" needed an MP3 CD to play in that DVD player, a copy of my backup CDs using Toast is done quickly and costs near to nothing.

Export from iMovie to stand-alone DVD hard drive

I want to preserve camcorder home movies edited in iMovie. The DVD recorded from iDVD won't play on my existing DVD player. Could I use the hard drive of a stand-alone DVD recorder/player to import from iMovie? I don't currently own one.
iMacG5 Mac OS X (10.4.3) Tapes from miniDv Canon Optura 60

A key consideration is the amount of free space on your boot hard drive. You will probably need a minimum of 15 to 20 GB to complete your project in iDVD. If you will have this amount of free space after copying over the files, go ahead.
BTW, if you plan on making several copies, make your first 'burn' to a disk image on your hard drive (it's an option under 'File' if I remember correctly).
Verify the disk image with Apple's DVD Player and then burn the copies you need with Apple's Disk Utility. See http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=42724 and http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93006

How do we get our Free Lion upgrade for recently purchased Macs

Afraid to purchase stand alone 27" apple lcd monitor

That's right. I've had a heck of a time with dead pixels and faded displays with my iMac so against my better half's advice to just call it quits with apple and get another PC, I said why not just get a macpro and buy the apple monitor separately? I realize I'd be spending WAY more than I ever have before but I'm tired of having nothing but issues with my iMac.
So, does anyone know the inside scoop on the LCD panels Apple is using in their iMac's and their new 27"displays? When a tech came out to swap my bad panel out on my iMac I saw a "LG" on the panel.
I'm looking to see if I should avoid apple display's all together if their reliability and quality control just isn't what it should be.

You need the Mini DisplayPort version of the 27" display.

The Thunderbolt version will not work with a Mac Pro.
Mac Pros started coming with Mini DisplayPorts in 2009 but you can install a Mini DisplayPort graphics card in earlier models (if you update to at least Snow Leopard),

Issue with Mini getting Self Assigned IP from recently purchased AEBS

I'm having a strange issue with the Airport Extreme Base Station I got got today. It can connect to the internet fine but it appears not to be assigning a network ID to my Mini. I can manually assign the proper IP Address & Subnet Mask settings but using "Using DCHP" yields an IP address of 169.254.x.x, a Subnet Mask of 255.255.0.0, and a nonfunctional internet connection. The situation occurs using both Ethernet & AirPort. My Vonage router seems to operate fine so I know the router is working otherwise.

Can you open the Airport Utility, and open the internet connection pane.
Yes
Make sure the connection sharing is set to: share a public IP address (this will turn on both NAT and DHCP on the AEBS)
Did that, no effect
This way, when the Mac is set to "Using DCHP", the IP address should be assigned to the Mac automatically.
Did that, no effect
But make sure you turn OFF the DHCP on the Vonage Router, there can only be one DHCP on a subnet.
Still trying to figure out how to do that on the Vonage router but I should point out when I powered down & completely removed the Vonage router and reset every other device on the network it made no impact.

How to invoke a pdf from the java stand alone application

I have a JFileChooser and i select a pdf through that . And i should be able to invoke the file in an acrobat reader.
The acrobat application should be invoked on a click the button upon selection.
Thanx in advance.

Try to use Runtime.exec() method like this:
String exePath = "path to acrobat reader executable";
String filePath = "path to the file to execute";
Runtime.getRuntime().exec(exePath+" "+filePath);

Can not upgrade from CC LR 5.7 to CC LR6

CC Lightroom 5.7 says upgrade available. I installed the desktop installer (many times, signed in signed out, restarted Window 8 as a test). After running the installer it says all apps are up to date. No proposition for LR 6. At one moment a message came saying Adobe has to upgrade my catalog to version 6. It was done. Then starting LR again it was still 5.7. Synchronization had been disabled and LR said that this was a security catalog copy.
Still unable to upgrade t version CC LR6

I have LR CC and only 5.7 installed "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Lightroom\lightroom.exe" .
Adobe support asked me to uninstall and remove Lightroom CC (2015) "with app preferences" ...than re-install.
I did this procedure but it is still LR 5.7 and still can not upgrade to LR 6 ... even so LT updater tells me that there is an update but Creative Cloud Setup still tells me that Lightroom CC(2015) in Up to date. No progress from before.
The story with the catalog update to LR6 seem odd, but it seems that my catalog has really been updated, it is hardly possible that LR6 has installed without me noticing as it takes one hour on me connection to download.

Student discount for Lightroom 6 upgrade (stand-alone version)

Hi!
I was just wondering, if there is a student discount for the new lightroom 6? I would buy it as an upgrade and as a stand-alone version.
Thanks in advance for insights!
Cheers

JimHess: Yep, I just got LR 6 as an upgrade from LR 5 for $79. Thanks!
opdesigns: It is the upgrade which you can get for $79. However, the upgrade will only work if you have a valid licence key for your previous version. I faced the issue that I did not have mine with me, since I am travelling at the moment. But this page helped to find my key : Preference and other file locations in Lightroom 5

Any Proactive measures for 10GR2 when upgrading from W2K3 to W2K3 EE

We are planning an OS upgrade from windows 2003 stand edition to Windows 2003 enterprise edition.
1) From the ORACLE prospective will there be any bottlenecks.
2) Are they any proactive measures i need to take.If so can you provide me link to a doc which might be helpful
Any comments are appreciated.

Both Windows 2003 Standard Edition and Enterprise Edition are certified platforms for Oracle 10g Rel. 2.
I can see you are currently working with patchset 10.2.0.2.0. You didn't mention if you are planning to upgrade to 10.2.0.3.0 but if you are willing to do so, there are several issues reported by the oracle community, I have included verbatim transcripts from the referred sites, just to name a few:
http://www.pythian.com/blogs/356/oracle-10203-patchset-known-issues-and-bugs
Other platforms to watch out with 10.2.0.3 patchset are Windows and Linux 32 bit - Metalink Note 403616.1 “Many Child Cursors create in 10.2.0.3 on Windows and Linux”. This will likely affect applications with heavy usage of bind variables (perhaps, ones with cursor_sharing=force/similar as well) and busy OLTP is a good candidate. See for yourself the note I mentioned above - it describes some symptoms and consequences (latch contention, ORA-4031, ORA-600) pretty well. The good news is that Linux platform has one-off patch available already - patch 5705795.

Oracle 10.2.0.3 patchset is out
December 5th, 2006 - by Marc Fielding
My colleague Vamsi Chikkam noticed that the Oracle 10.2.0.3 patchset has been released for Linux and Windows 32-bit. The major bugfixes are the same as my original post with a few additions:
* Identical SQL run in different schemas may modify the wrong schema’s tables (bug 5458753)… we have run into this problem at a client site and it’s not pretty. Workarounds include qualifying schema names in SQL and one-off patches for 10.2.0.2. MetaLink note 329673.1 has more details.
* When cursors are being reloaded frequently in the shared pool, PLS-306/ORA-1722/ORA-1858 errors can occur (bug 4752541)
* Under Windows platforms, triggers referencing :NEW/:OLD using NCHAR/NVARCHAR character sets can error out (bug 5388136)
* The same issue as bug 5388136 above also causes compilation errors on 10.2.0.2 databases upgraded from previous releases under Windows(bug 5383828)

Will Lightroom stay a stand alone product?

I have to say that I am very disappointed with the whole CC concept. Actually that is not quite true I don't mind if a company wants to offer a subscription service - I just don't want my software that way. I have no desire to pay for software as a subscription. I want to buy the products I want and have the right to use them for as long as I want. So, the fact that Adobe is going to stop offering upgrades to Photoshop as stand alone product is disappointing and means I will be staying with CS5.
But more importantly if the plan is to make Lightroom available only as a subscription then I need to start planning a transition now. I realize Lightroom is currently going to be sold as a stand alone product. I am worried about the future. Can Adobe make some kind of statement about their intentions? I get that they cannot predict the far future but I would like some indication that the sky is not going to fall next year.

I agree with the Op and Mr Electron et al.
Remember Adobe is primarily a marketing company these days, with LR, CS et al their product. What (you might think) Adobe says today does not always match what Adobe will do tomorrow.
I have spent quite a lot of money on LR and Photoshop/CS over the last 10-12 years, not missing a release, keen to upgrade as early as possible (including Betas). But that has been at my time of choosing & if/when I felt I could afford it or felt the software was at a stable enough level because you can't accuse Adobe of going over board on releasing bug-free or even bug-lite software. (The thought of frequent update from Adobe is actually quite scary, all that time spent sorting the mess out ! )
But I have absolutely no desire to, and WILL NOT, use a subscription service/ cloud for this software be it CS or LR.
It definitely looks to me that its the way they're moving. I feel this way because it not just about what they say its about what they don't say. They are not saying it will not happen, only that no decision has been made - which could easily be deferred final decision until feedback on CS changes have had time to be measure. It quite legitimate (business-sense) marketing approach. It means you can give an honest answer - 'not in the foreseeable future, no decision taken' - whilst still knowing with almost certainty what the decision will be.
So, as I've 30,000 or so photos, I'm starting now to look at the alternatives, as even with such a modest number it will still take time to work out how easiest (and cheapest) to transfer to something else. And also to come to terms with what I will lose. But better now than when I have 40,000 or 50,000 photos.
Sad days, but it was fun while it lasted

Is a stand alone Lightroom compatible and will interface with a cloud PS?

I've been using stand alone versions of LR5 and CS6 and want to convert to the cloud. I am told that there will be conflicts if there is a stand alone and cloud version of LR. True or not? and, will a stand alone LR5 interface with a cloud PS

there is one, just search with spotlight "Calculator".
It works great!
Hope this helps.

Upgrade from recently purchased stand alone LR5 to LR6
