Upgrading kt4v mobo, some questions

hi,
recently I bought a Kt4v mobo, but I still use an amd 1.2 ghz duron as processor, therefore my mobo is set to 100fsb atm with is bad ;(
I'm thinking about upgrading to an AMD athlon but I have some questions.
I'd like to get my FSB at 166, I'm currently using 2 256mb DDR ram sticks with a speed of 333mhz, is that possible?
(well, actualy one is 400mhz, but as this mobo only supports one stick of ddr400, it's set to 333)
what is the fastest Processor my mobo can handle with that kind of ram?
and should I change other speeds when installing it like my AGP bus speed etc.. to prevent them beiing damaged after upping the fsb?
that's all, If someone could answer these I'd be very gratefull, thx
oh yeah, specs:
AMD duron 1.2 ghz 200fsb
KTV4 MSI mobo
Point of view Geforce 4 TI 4280 128mb
512 MB DDR 333mhz
Maxtor 80 gig 7200rpm
samsung 20 gig 5400rpm
Logitech mx 700 mouse
wondows XP Pro
3com nic etc etc etc

Quote
or is it set automatically?
Yepp!
Quote
are Athlon Xp's unlocked by default...should set the multiplier like this then: 12.5 X 166= 2158 mhz
Just let the board handle it, all bios-settings on AUTO.
Quote
250 watt which might be on the low side
I think the board wouldn't even boot... :D
Psu should have more then 25A/3.3V, 35A/5V and 200W combined power.

Sold 4GB iphone upgrading to 8GB Some questions?

Sold 4GB iphone upgrading to 8GB and was wondering what troubles if any i might run into?
Once i recieve the 8gb model can i just switch sim cards? that way my 8gb will have evrything my 4gb had on it and the person i am selling it too will have a sim card that hasn't been activated ?
Anyone know of any problems i might have? maybe having to restart my 2 year contract with at&t for some reason?
Any help would be great
Thanks

Good question.
I believe that your SIM card should be interchangeable between your old 4GB iPhone and your new 8GB iPhone. Of course, if you take your SIM out of the old 4G what will the buyer of your 4G use for a SIM card to get started - are you planning to give him the non-registered SIM from the 8G that you get?
If not, how do you expect him to get a SIM card unless you expect him to have to buy one from AT&T?
I think that if the old SIM works, there should be no need to restart your two (2) year contract but first the old SIM needs to work.
Let us know what happens.

9i to 10g (10.2.0.4) Upgrade... some questions

Hello,
I am currently analysing the upgrade requirements for my organisation to upgrade our Backend databases from 9i to 10g (release 10.2.0.4).
We are currently using a COTS application to interface the database. There are a number of things i am unsure of in regards to the prequisites etc that need to be completed.
Oracle is running on the HP-UX Operating system, our DBA's are quite happy with the upgrade process so not many issues here.
The questions i have are mainly from a Windows server interfacing point of view.
What versions of ODBC drivers are needed to talk to 10g?
Does the current version of SQL*Plus (8.0.5.0.0) need to be upgraded?
Do the version of Oracle Reporting still work? (9.0.2.3.0)?
Are there any deprecated SQL statements or such like that will be need to be checked for in current scripts / sql?
Is there anything else i need to be aware of during the upgrade?
Rgds,
Andy Paton
COTS Functional Analyst

Hi Andy,
10.2.0.4 is the latest release from Oracle. you can get more information from Metalink or oracle.com
On Metalink you can fin 10g Database Upgrade Companion for answers to most of your questions
Hope that helps

Z.K.

[Urgent] Some questions about OID/OSSO 10g - 11g upgrade

Dear all,
We are under doing upgrading assessment of OID/OSSO 10g to 11g for a customer. After reviewed the 'upgrading guide', we still have some questions as below:
1.     Whether the ‘10g DIP profiles’ will be still available after the OID 11g upgrade? Currently there are some sync of AD<->OID and DB->OID.
2.     Whether the ‘WNA’ function will still work after the upgrade?
3.     Is there a big change of OID API from 10g to 11g? If so, I think a big effort maybe on application modification.
4.     I found that there is a OAM Basic version for OSSO 10g upgrade. So if this OAM Basic will migrate the OSSO configuration (like external application) automatically, or it must be re-configed after the upgrade?
5.     Currently customer config OID 10g as BPEL/ESB’s identity store. So does BPEL/ESB 10g is certificated with OID 11g also? I didn’t find the certification so far.
Thank you in advance and any comment are welcome.

[Urgent] Some questions about Oracle Portal 10g - 11g upgrade

Dear friends,
We are under doing upgrading assessment of Oracle Portal from 10g to 11g. After reviewed the 'upgrading guide', we still have some questions as below:
1. Whether the 'Instant Portal' feature remain in Oracle Portal 11g? If yes, how to migrate the Instant Portal 10g sites? If no, any workaround?
2. Whether the old 10g Page Group and Pages will be still available after 11g upgrade? Also can customer import the old 10g transportset into Portal 11g?
3. How about the customized Portal 10g objects (such as customized template, style, attributes) after 11g upgrade? Still be usable?
4. Customer use PDK to develop many portlets in 10g. Can they use JDeveloper 11g to migrate their old project to 11g automatically?
Thank you in advance and any comment are welcome.

1. Whether the 'Instant Portal' feature remain in Oracle Portal 11g? If yes, how to migrate the Instant Portal 10g sites? If no, any workaround?Instant Portal is not available anymore in Oracle Portal 11g. The Instant Portal page groups will be migrated to standard Portal page groups. Maintenance of the Instant Portal can be done with the standard Portal tools. The Instant Portal tools are not available anymore.
Whether the old 10g Page Group and Pages will be still available after 11g upgrade? Also can customer import the old 10g transportset into Portal 11g?Old 10g Page Groups are migrated to Portal 11g. They will still be available after the upgrade.
Export/Import through transports sets has always been limited to instances of the same version. It is not supported between versions as documented in the Administration Guide :
[11.2.1|http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E14571_01/portal.1111/e10239/cg_imex.htm#CCJBCCGD] System Requirements
Before exporting and importing content, ensure that your system meets the minimum system requirements, as described in this section.
Notes:
* Export and import functions only within the same release of Oracle Portal and the same patch release, for example, release 10.1.4 to release 10.1.4 or release 11.1.1 to release 11.1.1. You cannot export and import between two different releases, such as release 10.1.2 to release 10.1.4 or release 10.1.4 to release 11.1.1.
How about the customized Portal 10g objects (such as customized template, style, attributes) after 11g upgrade? Still be usable?Customized objects get migrated as well. Certain types (e.g. PL/SQL item types) need to be checked after upgrade as the behavior of the PL/SQL code may differ between database versions. This is particularly of concern when the 10.1.4.x Portal uses a 10.1 database. A database upgrade to either 10.2, 11.1 or 11.2 is necessary as Portal 11g is not supported with RDBMS 10.1.
Customer use PDK to develop many portlets in 10g. Can they use JDeveloper 11g to migrate their old project to 11g automatically?Never done this, but the Portal framework is able to consume JPDK providers which are running in older versions of the toolkit. If the providers are running in standalone OC4J containers, you would be able to upgrade the framework and keep the providers in their OC4J containers. This will allow you to focus on the framework first and worry about your providers later.
Thanks,

I have some questions regarding setting up a software RAID 0 on a Mac Pro

I have some questions regarding setting up a software RAID 0 on a Mac pro (early 2009).
These questions might seem stupid to many of you, but, as my last, in fact my one and only, computer before the Mac Pro was a IICX/4/80 running System 7.5, I am a complete novice regarding this particular matter.
A few days ago I installed a WD3000HLFS VelociRaptor 300GB in bay 1, and moved the original 640GB HD to bay 2. I now have 2 bootable internal drives, and currently I am using the VR300 as my startup disk. Instead of cloning from the original drive, I have reinstalled the Mac OS, and all my applications & software onto the VR300. Everything is backed up onto a WD SE II 2TB external drive, using Time Machine. The original 640GB has an eDrive partition, which was created some time ago using TechTool Pro 5.
The system will be used primarily for photo editing, digital imaging, and to produce colour prints up to A2 size. Some of the image files, from scanned imports of film negatives & transparencies, will be 40MB or larger. Next year I hope to buy a high resolution full frame digital SLR, which will also generate large files.
Currently I am using Apple's bundled iPhoto, Aperture 2, Photoshop Elements 8, Silverfast Ai, ColorMunki Photo, EZcolor and other applications/software. I will also be using Photoshop CS5, when it becomes available, and I will probably change over to Lightroom 3, which is currently in Beta, because I have had problems with Aperture, which, until recent upgrades (HD, RAM & graphics card) to my system, would not even load images for print. All I had was a blank preview page, and a constant, frozen "loading" message - the symbol underneath remained static, instead of revolving!
It is now possible to print images from within Aperture 2, but I am not happy with the colour fidelity, whereas it is possible to produce excellent, natural colour prints using its "minnow" sibling, iPhoto!
My intention is to buy another 3 VR300s to form a 4 drive Raid 0 array for optimum performance, and to store the original 640GB drive as an emergency bootable back-up. I would have ordered the additional VR300s already, but for the fact that there appears to have been a run on them, and currently they are out of stock at all, but the more expensive, UK resellers.
I should be most grateful to receive advice regarding the following questions:
QUESTION 1:
I have had a look at the RAID setting up facility in Disk Utility and it states: "To create a RAID set, drag disks or partitions into the list below".
If I install another 3 VR300s, can I drag all 4 of them into the "list below" box, without any risk of losing everything I have already installed on the existing VR300?
Or would I have to reinstall the OS, applications and software again?
I mention this, because one of the applications, Personal accountz, has a label on its CD wallet stating that the Licence Key can only be used once, and I have already used it when I installed it on the existing VR300.
QUESTION 2:
I understand that the failure of just one drive will result in all the data in a Raid 0 array being lost.
Does this mean that I would not be able to boot up from the 4 drive array in that scenario?
Even so, it would be worth the risk to gain the optimum performance provide by Raid 0 over the other RAID setup options, and, in addition to the SE II, I will probably back up all my image files onto a portable drive as an additional precaution.
QUESTION 3:
Is it possible to create an eDrive partition, using TechTool Pro 5, on the VR300 in bay !?
Or would this not be of any use anyway, in the event of a single drive failure?
QUESTION 4:
Would there be a significant increase in performance using a 4 x VR300 drive RAID 0 array, compared to only 2 or 3 drives?
QUESTION 5:
If I used a 3 x VR300 RAID 0 array, and installed either a cloned VR300 or the original 640GB HD in bay 4, and I left the Startup Disk in System Preferences unlocked, would the system boot up automatically from the 4th. drive in the event of a single drive failure in the 3 drive RAID 0 array which had been selected for startup?
Apologies if these seem stupid questions, but I am trying to determine the best option without foregoing optimum performance.

Well said.
Steps to set up RAID
Setting up a RAID array in Mac OS X is part of the installation process. This procedure assumes that you have already installed Mac OS 10.1 and the hard drive subsystem (two hard drives and a PCI controller card, for example) that RAID will be implemented on. Follow these steps:
1. Open Disk Utility (/Applications/Utilities).
2. When the disks appear in the pane on the left, select the disks you wish to be in the array and drag them to the disk panel.
3. Choose Stripe or Mirror from the RAID Scheme pop-up menu.
4. Name the RAID set.
5. Choose a volume format. The size of the array will be automatically determined based on what you selected.
6. Click Create.
Recovering from a hard drive failure on a mirrored array
1. Open Disk Utility in (/Applications/Utilities).
2. Click the RAID tab. If an issue has occurred, a dialog box will appear that describes it.
3. If an issue with the disk is indicated, click Rebuild.
4. If Rebuild does not work, shut down the computer and replace the damaged hard disk.
5. Repeat steps 1 and 2.
6. Drag the icon of the new disk on top of that of the removed disk.
7. Click Rebuild.

Drive A + B = VOLUME ONE
Drive C + D = VOLUME TWO
What you put on those volumes is of course up to you and easy to do.
A system really only needs to be backed up "as needed" like before you add or update or install anything.
/Users can be backed up hourly, daily, weekly schedule
Media files as needed.
Things that hurt performance:
Page outs
Spotlight - disable this for boot drive and 'scratch'
SCRATCH: Temporary space; erased between projects and steps.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/StandardRAIDlevels
(normally I'd link to Wikipedia but I can't load right now)
Disk drives are the slowest component, so tackling that has always made sense. Easy way to make a difference. More RAM only if it will be of value and used. Same with more/faster processors, or graphic card.

Picked up a B/W.. have some questions

Hey guys. I picked up a B/W yesterday for a nice spare computer and i have some questions.
1. The former owner upgraded to 10.3 but the computer is lacking serious speed. I know it's not going to be fast but i have a feeling the Memory and video card is holding it back. It only has 256 megs of ram and i would like to add some more. What the max amount i can add? I heard 1GB but is it possible to do more? THe video card is the original and seriously *****. Whats a great card everyone runs? I was looking at the new HD series on new egg but i think it's designed for a pc. Will it work?
Also.. What's the best place to buy pieces for this mac? Any good online retailers? Thanks again
Ron

Before you even think about investing in this computer you might want to check if it is a Rev. 1 or Rev. 2 model. I can't tell you how because I have never laid hands on a BW but apparently the Rev. 1 starts behaving really erratically when you try to upgrade things like the hard drive, and you may quickly tire of a tiny hard drive.
As for parts, there's the old standby www.mac-sales.com but once you start buying new upgrades for that computer you will quickly outstrip just buying a used G4 instead. LowEndMac Google groups is a good place for aged machines, and of course there's e-bay. There's also a variety of used Mac and parts retailers, though I think a BW is even outside their interest range now since nobody wants to pay for parts for a G3 what they have to charge to stay in business.

Potential new T61 user with some questions about product/support/etc.

Hi all!
I've been using Dell Latitude's for last 7+ years and been happy with them thus far, as I was able to stay within the C-series thru 3 systems and reuse some components such as batteries, CD-ROM, etc. but now that I'd have to go to D-series, that gives me the choice of going to new vendor...and IBM/Lenovo was the only other choice due to my OS requirement: XP Pro!
So now I'm here asking some questions that I'm still having issues with:
(I'm comparing the T61 to Dell D530 and/or my C610)
1) Features that I've used on existing Dell that I don't see on T61 :
    a) Infared port --- I've used to transfer stuff from one sys to another
    b) S-Video out --- I've used to display on TV for some situations
    c) Serial port --- can't recall using it but with my luck, I'd need it sometime.
    d) Parallel port (C610) --- for my really old printer used on rare occasions
    e) Floppy drive --- yes, I still use it for some unusual situations
2) On Dell, I can put a 2nd battery or floppy drive in the media bay instead of CD/DVD...what about T61?
3) Support:
    a) Dell forums have 7+ yrs of history and are well used...this forum seems brand new...was there another one before it?
    b) My Dell's have lifetime tech support (ok, so sometimes understanding the folks from India can be an issue) but IBM seems to limit this to life of warranty.
4) Pricing: T61 would be seem to be, at minimum, about $150 more than similar Dell even with current "sales"...I'm having trouble justifying this...
5) Things that I see that T61 has that new Dell D530 doesn't:
   a) built-in mike --- my current Dell has it and I use it now and then so this is a plus!
   b) keyboard light --- nice feature, but couldn't I use a USB one instead if I really needed it?
   c) fingerprint reader --- never used one...how often do people use it?
   d) 2nd card slot for Express cards --- current Dell has two standard slots and I'm using both, though one is wi-fi which C610 didn't have built-in...and other is modem to replace failed built-in...D530 has only one slot, so having 2nd of any type is good.
   e) middle mouse button --- is that what I'm seeing? Or is it something else?
   f) recovery partition --- ok, nice but how much room does it take?
6) Things that D530 has that T61 doesn't:
   a) 4th USB --- I'm used to only 1 now so even 3 would be big step up...
   b) 15" standard screen --- T61 is only a 14.1" screen and that extra bit of size would likely help, but I'm limited on physical dimensions to 13.5" total width (unusual situation) so a 15.4" wide screen isn't possible...I'm looking at SXGA+ in either case to maximize usage.
   c) recovery CD is standard --- so I'm presuming I'd have to create my own here?
That, I think, about does it...so...any users willing to help me decide if a switch is good for me?
Thanks!!!
Update: It seems that phone tech support is only available for warranty period with IBM, whereas with Dell, I can still call for hardware tech help (to diagnose problem at least) for "lifetime" or well past paid period, as I've already done in past...comments?
Update #2: Changed the incorrect "R"s to "T"! Duh!
Message Edited by J_Hallgren on 12-28-2007 07:50 PM
A current Dell Latitute user who was looking to maybe switch...But didn't.

I finally made the switch to Lenovo and the Thinkpad line of notebooks and think this was the best move I have ever made in years! I've spent far too much money maintaining a separate notebook (Dell Latitude L400) several custom built desktops. This December, I sold my desktops, my laptops (I had 2 L400's), and my 20" Aquous LCD TV to finance my Thinkpad T61. It was well worth it! I will try to answer your questions in this checklist, which I found to be quite similar to my own .... frighteningly exactly like my own....:
Hardware Requirements
IR: This is pretty outdated but functional. I used to use a Palm with IR as well as an IR laser printer. I ditched both for a PDA phone with bluetooth. The laser printer is networked now
S-Video: You might be able to get away with a TV tuner cardbus or a expres card. There might also be external converters that convert from your VGA/DVI (DVI via port replicator) into any variety of video outputs.
Serial: My older Palm had a serial port for the docking station - bluetooth is a good replacement
Parallel port: I currently have a USB to parallel adapter in my bag just in case. These are cheap cables and work well.
Floppy: I keep a USB one of these just in case. I find that having fewer input devices on my laptop and leaving them external help keep the machine lighter for my mostly mobile usage (e.g., my L400 with no inputs at all except 1 USB port).
T61 Spare Battery: Uses ultrabay battery - I rarely use the DVDRW drive and leave the ultrabay battery in there while on the go. DVDRW drive stays in the bag until needed. I recommend you upgrade to the 9 cell battery with the advanced ultra bay battery, which will give u something like 9 to 12 hours of operating life. If you are not a fan of the battery pack sticking out like crazy, stick to the letter box format laptop (not widescreen), which will provide the minimum amount of battery pack stick-out with the 9 cell battery. The 6 cell will not stick out with the letterbox laptop but will stick out with the widescreen version.
Support Options: I rarely call support so I have no opinion here.
Pricing: Price was not really a concern for me. I purchased mine for the business look mainly, which Lenovo maintained well. I don't like the shiny/plastic/toy look of Dell and Apple computers these days. If anything, consider the premium an investment in the build quality of these machines (or a premium just for the good looks). I particularly like the roll cage as well as active protection system that stops the hard drive as soon as the system detects excessive motion.
Included Hardware Comparison:
I like the mic, use it often for Skype and the built in 1.3MP webcam as well.
Keyboard light.... kinda cute but not as functional because it simply is too small. It was a cute idea that could have been made better had Lenovo opted for a backlit keyboard instead. That would have been more functional and added to the "cool" factor.
With regards to the Express Card and PCMCIA card slot, I rarely use either because everything is built in. However, if you want that TV tuner, an express card or PCMCIA card slot is good. If you opt for the built in media reader, you will be unable to use the express card as the media reader takes up that slot (I might be wrong, but I think the card reader is large enough that it takes up both slots, so u can't add anything anyway - but you should call pre-sales to answer that question).
Middle mouse button: The three buttons in the middle are used for the trackpoint/joystick mouse controller. I think the middle button is configurable to do various things. I personally hate the joystick and can only use the touchpad. The lack of a touchpad was the only reason I did not stick to the smaller 12.1" X line of laptops, which was really more in tune with my size requirements (too used to using the L400 sized machine).
Recovery Partition: This is a cheap way for manufacturers to make it easy for people to recover their systems in case of crash - without the need for any documentation or disc media. However, it makes it hard for people like me who only use machines after a clean format and customized install of Windows. This partition is about 10GB and can be erased with special disk format or partition tools. Windows itself cannot read or delete this partition. With the minimum size of the hard drives available, this should not be an excessive space killer for most people. I personally need only 7GB total for OS and apps. The remaining data I work with is actually streamed from a 500GB gigabit NAS. I might switch to a 32GB solid state disk one of these days when their performance comes more in par or exceeds traditional drives.
Recovery CD: You can create your own from the recovery partition since Lenovo does not provide any.
4th USB: I only use 1 or 2 as well. 1 for an external micro mouse (I love my touchpad, but it's just hard to use with Photoshop or CAD apps) and a second for a USB memory key. My other devices i.e., scanner, external mouse, keyboard, are plugged in on my desktop through a USB hub that goes to a single port on my docking station. So yes, your docking station will probably remove the need for more than 2 ports. Although, I do find it odd there are only 3 ports... such an odd number.
Screen Size: I personally wish I could have gotten the X series of laptops but the 14.1 was the only other mobile solution. For the larger screen size, docking station to my 24" Dell 2405FP. The compact nature of the T series makes it pretty thin and compact though... it was not too much bigger than my L400 - at least, not uncomfortably bigger.
But yeah, I think if you make the switch, you'll be getting yourself a solid machine that will keep u going for years. The Latitude line of Dell's were really good, but overall, I feel that the nature of Dell's manufacturing process is making it too "cookie cutter" and reducing its overall quality level. Their earlier lines were awesome, like the D lines you mentioned. But unless you get the ATG line, you just won't get the same level of quality they used to offer (in addition, the ATG line is wickedly too expensive - I'd rather get a Durabook for military grade spec at a fraction of the price).
Anyway, have fun shopping! :-)
And moderators or employees of Lenovo, don't you guys get referral bonuses for giving your employee discount code to friends and family? *wink*

Some questions of BO Edge or Enterprise Xi 3.1 + updates

Good Morning,
I have some questions
I have SAP NW 7.01 EH1 SP5. sytem installed.
1- I want to install Bo Edge BI Standard 3.1
a) its possible have BO Edge Bi Stantard 3.1 SP2 ?
b) with Edge 3.1 (without sp) its possible Xcelsius Enterprise SP2 connect to BW?
2) I want to update/grade my BO XI 3.1.
How its work about support packages or fix? the sequencial? There is FIX and SP. After finishing BO XI 3.1, what I do next?
a)
1 - Install Sp1
2 - install fix 1.1 1.2 1.3 .... 1.x
3 - install sp2
4 - install fix 2.1 2.2 2.3 ....
b)
1 - Install sp1
2 - Install sp2
3 - install fix 2.1 2.2 .3
My question is, the SP2 for example has whole (sp1+ fix1.1 to 1.x) included? or just fix 1.1 to 1.x < sp 2.0 ?
Thx
Regards,
Amit

Hi,
1) a) SP 2 is not yet available for BO Edge.
1) b) If you ant to use the direct interface to BW queries within XCelsius then your dashboards must be stored/exported in the Netweaver. You do not need a BO Enterprise or Edge system for this. You can just install the XCelsius Designer 2008 SP2, create your dasbhoard and export it to SAP NW.
2) There is no SP1 for BO XI 3.1. BO XI 3.1 is considered to be BO XI 3.0 + Service Pack 1. You can say that BO XI 3.1 is the full (non-incremental) version of Service Pack 1 for BO XI 3.0. For Service Pack 2 exists currently only an incremental version ie. either you install BO XI 3.1 directly or you start from XI 3.0 and then upgrade to XI 3.1. In both cases you install SP2 at the end.
3) This depends on the type of the Service Pack (incremental or full version). I would recommend to always take a look at the release notes prior to the installation of a given Service Pack. Service Pack 2 for BO XI 3.1 can only be applied on a BO XI 3.1 system.

Some question about windows 7 and mini laptop

hi
i glad that i found this forum, i have the mini HP laptop 110 and i have some question
(i have intel atom 1.66 , 2G memory and windows 7 starter)
1. if i'll instal the windows 7 pro - is my performance will be smaller ?
2. what is the most light anti-virus that recommended for this mini laptop ?
3. what is the most light browser that recommended for this mini laptop ?
thank's in advance

Windows 7 is Windows 7 as far as the resources it consumes. So feel free to upgrade to 7 Pro and your performance should not take a hit. For light antivirus I recommend Avira. It is what I have on my own netbook. Lastly a good light browser is Opera.

Upgrading to 10.4 Questions:

Hi,
Upgrading to 10.4
I have some questions about upgrading to Tiger 10.4
This is my System, etc:
I have a Power Mac G4 MDD Dual Boot 1.25 (SP) Model M9145LL/A. Running Panther 10.3.9 - 7W98 - Darwin 7.9.0
2 New Internal SATA H.D.'s, and 2 GB's of Ram.
A few months ago I added a Seritek 1S2 SATA Card and 2 WD SATA H.D.'s. I took the original 80 GB drive out and put it in a Firewire 400 OWC case, that has my OS and all my files on it, and it's bootable. I cloned it to my new Boot Drive a 640 GB WD with 2 partitions. One for OS and Programs and second partition for my files. My second new drive a 320 GB WD has 2 partitions, first one for Photoshop CS2 Scratch, and second partition for Video Scratch, for Popcorn, etc. I used Super Duper to clone. I got a lot of Great Advise on how to do this on the Apple Discussions Forum at the time I did this!
I'm now running Panther 10.3.9 and very occasionally boot into 9.2.2
My Original System came with Jaguar 10.2.7 then Upgraded to Panther 10.3
Then did the updates to 10.3.9
I want to upgrade my OS to be able to get the newer versions of Safari and Firefox and heard that Tiger runs CS2 better and is a more stable OS overall. Eventually want to do the updates to 10.4.11 which I hear is the best thing to do.
MY QUESTIONS:
Part 1:
I want to Upgrade to 10.4 Tiger. I currently have a Dual Boot System running 10.3.9 and 9.2.2
I would like to install a "Fresh" OS of Tiger "Only" as my new OS. Can I do this by using the "Archive and Install" Option?
Would Using This Option give me a Tiger Only new OS, omitting OS 9? And can I do this with a Upgrade or do I need a Full Version of Tiger?
To be able to Keep my Internet and Mail and other System Prefs the way they are now without having to reconfigure them, would choosing "Preserve User and Network Settings", take care of this?
Also, before doing all of this, should I use Disk Utility to Verify and Repair the volume? If so, do I use Disk Utility from the New Tiger Upgrade DVD or do I have to use the Disk Utility that came with my Panther 10.3 Upgrade C.D.'s?
What would be the Steps to do this?
Part 2:
(I know I have to find a Machine Specific Black DVD-ROM of Tiger 10.4) Will I have to Register this Upgrade? Will it have a New Serial Number or Not? Because I know it's hard to find these, if I found a person who has the right DVD for my machine at a good price, I was wondering if this Upgrade needed to be Registered or not to be able to use it, and get the Updates etc?? Or do I have to buy a Brand New Retail Version if I can find one, from an online store? Do you know of any online stores that have a Tiger Upgrade?
Part 3:
Will I also have to Upgrade my Norton Antivirus to a Newer Version for Tiger? I have version 9.0.4 now. What version do I need for Tiger?
I would Really Appreciate some answers to my questions and any other advice on doing this Upgrade Right.
Thank You.

Hi...I finally found an Upgrade for Tiger at AllMac.com
http://www.allmac.com/shop/productinfo.php?cPath=5_10003&productsid=6911
The one I got also, included an extra CD with Updaters to OS 10.4.11 along with Java and Security .dmg files.
After loading it all in and updating the OS to 10.4.11, I used Apple Software Update to download the Latest Java and Security updates. Also, got the Latest versions of Safari and Firefox.
All seems to be running OK. And didn't have any problems with Photoshop CS2 activation or running. Didn't have any problems with the latest Security Updates, as well.
Thank you.

Thinking about purchasing a Macbook, but I need some questions answered

Hey everybody,
I got a response to my Craigslist ad, so it's looking like selling my iMac G5 and buying a new Macbook might actually happen. My only problem is that I have some questions about what to do with my money. I'm not a power user, or someone who really plays games (other than my Nintendo emulators) so I already know that a Macbook is the right computer for me.
(1) I don't have external storage, so how should I go about transferring my stuff? Buying the Macbook before selling my iMac is not an option because I just don't have that much money. I've read that some people buy the Macbook and then upgrade the HD, using the 60 Gig that comes with it as their external storage by buying a $20 case for it. I have about 50 GB taken up on my iMac, so I'm going to probably need around 100 GB at least. I know upgrading the memory doesn't, but does upgrading the HD void the warranty? Any brand recommendations for HD's? Heat and noise are very important to me. (7200 RPM is out)
(2) I never really used the Superdrive on my iMac, but it was nice to know it was there. Is the performance difference from 1.83 to 2Ghz noticeable? I hear it's not, but I also read that under Rosetta it matters. Since Office isn't universal yet, I'd like to know. Can anyone verify this?
(3) I read on MacOSRumors that Leopard is probably going to do some nice little graphic effects when it's released, and that the next revision of the Macbook Core Duo will probably still have integrated graphics. Since I don't plan on doing this again for at least another year, do you think the Intel graphics will be enough to keep up for a little while?
(4) Anybody have some experience with selling a computer on Craigslist? I'm smart enough to request cash, local buyers only, and have them meet me at my house to try the computer out. Any advice on how to make sure this runs smoothly? I might end up leaving some things on the computer for the buyer. Anything that I should make sure to delete (i.e. preferences, passwords, etc.?) A checklist of what I should remember to do would really help.
I think that about covers all of it...Thanks in advance.

I sold my computer on Craigslist. No problems. I think it's only really dodgy if you are buying one from there - then you should be very careful!
I'm not sure exactly the best way to go about deleting your stuff, but you have the right idea: get rid of your preferences and passwords, and your internet history as well.
I'm not sure how to look at 'Keychain', but you might want to make sure that this is empty.
In terms of processor speed, I can't help you: I have just got the 2Ghz, but partly because not having a DVD burner isn't an option for me. As file sizes and your storage needs increase, your need for a DVD burner will probably increase as well.
Leopard is not far away now, and I would guess that Apple would make sure that their new OS will work adequately on their new computers. I would be surprised if there is much of a noticeable difference in anything but the most graphics heavy applications. Could be wrong about this, but I think that the basic GUI will perform well on any MacBook.
In terms of moving info from your iMac... the cheapest thing apart from buying the MacBook before you sell is borrowing a HD or iPod from a friend. 50G isn't THAT much info, you could always burn it to DVD-Rs in a pinch.

Some question About title importer plugin

We are developing a title importer plugin for CS6, and have some question, hope forums could help me. Thank you very much.
1) Is there API to get title clip's in, out point in timeline ?
in imImageRec data structures, these is a in/out point, but it is trim in/out point, is not timeline in/out, how to get these point ?
2) Because we are also developing a subtitle importer for CS6, when user want to record the subtitle timecode, we hope we could control timeline play/stop, and get the playing/stopped callback, in same time, we could get the current playing position. But, it seems that these is no way to do this. I want to known, is there any plan to support these features in future ? Or, is there some work around methods to get these ?

I really appreciate your reply, I will look for VideoSegmentSuite to get the in/out point.
Q: Why we need timeline in/out of title clip ?
A: Our titler could do animation, when user strench title clip in timeline, clip's length will be changed, we hope we could scale animiation to fit the new length. ( I means animation will be slower or faster with new length), in imImporterImageRec, there is a in/out point and postion, but, we found they are not correct in sometimes, and SDK help PDF tell me there is a API bug in it, is it fixed or not ?
In another, in ImportImage API, we use (Rec->pos + Rec->in) / Rec->sampleSize to get real frame number for out title clip rendering when our title is imNoDurationNoDefault, we test it, it seems that it is right. But if our title is imNoDurationStillDefault, then Rec->pos and Rec->in and Rec->out are all based 90000+, and Rec->out was not right in some times (when we strench clip's outpoint in timeline), it is a bug or we missed something ? In this situation, we have to use (Rec->pos - Rec->in) / Rec->sampleSize to get the rendering frame number, it seems that it is right too. But, we could not use Rec->out, because it was wrong in sometimes.
New questions:
1) When we dragdrop our title files to timeline directly from windows explorer, Premiere will call imGetInfo8 (in here, we will allocate a private data for this clip), imOpenFile8, and there is no chance to call imGetPrefs8, so, when we close Premiere, imCloseFile will not be called for this clip, memory leaks for our private data. If we drag the title files to Premiere Bin firstly, then Premiere will call imGetPrefs8, imGetInfo8, imOpenFile8, there is no problem, imCloseFile will be called when we release this title clip.
So, my conclusion is: Premiere must call imGetPrefs8, else imCloseFile will not be called, I think it was a bug, isnot it?
2) We have a title template library (they are all based template title file), and, we use OLE dragdrop (COleDataSource->DoDragDrop), when we drag-drop these files to Premiere Bin/Timeline/SourceMonitor/TargetMonitor, there is a lots of memory leaks in oledobj2.cpp (microsoft source code files for COleDataSource), we are sure our code is correct, because if we dragdrop to our windows or other NLE (for example, EDIUS), there is not any problem. So, I guess, because we use MFC, and Premiere did not support it fully? Do you have see this problem before ? Do you have another suggestion to do these drag-drops ?
3) About to get sequence start timecode, we see a thread in forum which said there is new sdk headers, use them, we could get it through PrSDKSequenceInfoSuite. But its downloading link is broken, so, how to get new SDK headers? could you give me a new link to download ?
BTW, we are useing CS6 SDK Release2 + CS6, and will upgrade to 6.03 to test.
Thank you very much. and Sorry for these lots of questions, I am new guy in Premiere plug-ins developing.

Some Questions before I buy a Macbook

Hi all,
i have some questions - maybe some of you guys may help me.
here we go.
1. here in germany we have three options.
- Core Duo 1,83 GHz with combo drive, white (1079 Euro)
- Core Duo 2GHz with DVD Burner, white (1279 Euro)
- Core Duo 2GHz with 80GB Harddisk and DVD Burner, black (1479 Euro)
Is it worth to buy the middle option? 200 Euro extra for 0,17Ghz and a DVD Burner - sounds a bit expensive?!
2. Is the performance difference betweeen 1,83 Ghz and 2 ghz noticeable?
3. Why is a RAM upgrade to 1GB recommended? and is the performance difference betweeen 512MB and 1GB noticeable?
4. Is it possible to possible to deactivate "cleartype" (the display looks a bit blurred)
5. Is the DVD Burner ok? Does it burn any DVD? Are there some issues?
6. Is it (easy) possible to install +512MB (or 2x 512MB) RAM and a bigger Harddisk by myself? The guys in the shop said that I will loose guarantee if I will do this by myself. Harddisk costs 80GB (+40€), 100GB (+140€), 120GB (+230€) - Sounds more than expensive!!!!
Thanks in advance for your replies,
cheers,

2. Is the performance difference betweeen 1,83 Ghz
and 2 ghz noticeable?
Barely, but if you're buying a new computer, it's always a good idea to get the fastest that's currently out.... simply because it won't be outdated as fast as if you get the lowest option.
3. Why is a RAM upgrade to 1GB recommended? and is
the performance difference betweeen 512MB and 1GB
noticeable?
It's huge. As much as a 200%-300% difference. MacOS and Windows XP both take quite a bit of ram. I'd go all the way and get 2GB. It's only $150 or so if you buy from Newegg. Get the Gstar RAM.... I've tested it for over 3 hours with diagnostic tools and it's just as good as the crucial memory, which I tested as well. No differences (they both run at the same Mhz with the same timings.) You won't regret it.
4. Is it possible to possible to deactivate
"cleartype" (the display looks a bit blurred)
Yup.
5. Is the DVD Burner ok? Does it burn any DVD? Are
there some issues?
There are some issues with some Superdrives in some Macbooks. Mostly the scratching thing. But, of course, Apple will replace your Superdrive if it has issues, so I wouldn't worry about it.
6. Is it (easy) possible to install +512MB (or 2x
512MB) RAM and a bigger Harddisk by myself? The guys
in the shop said that I will loose guarantee if I
will do this by myself. Harddisk costs 80GB (+40€),
100GB (+140€), 120GB (+230€) - Sounds more than
expensive!!!!
Both the hard drive and the RAM is official 'user serviceable" parts with official Apple Manuals documenting just how to install them. Therefore upgrading them yourself does NOT void your warrenty (unless, of course, you're extremely negligent in how you install the parts, and damage your computer from not following directions.) But as long as you follow directions (and they're incredibly easy), you're good to go.
Thanks in advance for your replies,
cheers,

Hope this helps! Honestly, if you're worried about the $200, just get the 1.83 model and spend $150 to upgrade to 2GB of RAM (by far the biggest thing in performance.) But if you can afford it, the 2.0Ghz model with both the DVD burner and 20GB extra HD space will come in handy (but the extra RAM should be your priority.)

Some questions regarding the iPhone app

Hi, I have an iPhone 6 Plus using the app version as I don't own a computer, and am currently on my second day of the 7-day Premium Free Trial period. I just have some questions I'd like to ask about it:
1) I have an extremely large music library, and I'm pleased to see that Spotify has most of what I own. However, for the past several hours it refuses to let me add any new artists/albums/songs to my lists, and when a new album is added, it will vanish from the artist list the next time I turn on my phone. At the same time, I actually tried deleting one of my artists from my Artist list, only to have to reappear the same way. Is this an error, or is there a limit of how much content you can add to your lists?
2) What happens when the 7-day trial period is over? Does it just start automatically billing me, or does it give the option of opting out?
Thanks for your help in advance. :)

Hello , Welcome to the community! :)
I am unaware of a bug like that, is their any chance that it could be fixed by now
If you gave payment info/subscribed via itunes then yes it will start billing you, you stop this by folowing these steps:
Canceling your subscription reverts your account to the Free level.
Go to the subscription page. (Note: If you don’t know your password, go here to reset it.)
Under Subscription and payment, click cancel your subscription.
Select a reason (select Other reasons if you're canceling for a promotion). Click CONTINUE.
Click CANCEL MY SUBSCRIPTION.
Enter your password in the password field. Click CANCEL SPOTIFY PREMIUM SUBSCRIPTION.
Your subscription page now shows the date you will revert to our Free ad-based service. We hope you decide to upgrade again!
Note: If you subscribed through any other company than Spotify, you need to contact that company to cancel. If your subscription is through iTunes, please see Apple's instructions for canceling.
I hope this helped :)
