Using multiple harddrives for one project

I'm about to purchase a new iMac and Final Cut Studio, and I have a question about harddrive setup. Currently, I have two external 320 GB harddrives I'm planning on using, and the iMac will come with an internal drive of 320 GB. This should be enough space to fit the estimated 468 GB of footage I'll have (36 hrs * 13 GB/hr for HDV is my calculation), but I've heard that there can be problems splitting a project across multiple harddrives. Should I upgrade the internal harddrive on the iMac to 750 GB so I can fit the project all on one drive?
Thanks very much!

Listen to what David said,
don't use your internal disk as scratch disk, it will slow down your system, put it at an unnecessary risk .
Are your drives FW connected or USB? If the case is the latter use your drives as back up drives and for more efficiency get at least FW400 drives and in the future do take into consideration bigger drives, 320 GB when editing video on a regular basis is peanuts.
Here some suggestions:

Multiple TOCs for One Project

Is it possible to split the topics in one help project into
two toc (hhc) files? I have a master project that merges about 53
chm files. Some of the slave projects are rather large and over the
years have had several types of information added to them. The
information in the projects are related to each other, but they
need to be organized separately in the master TOC. Splitting the
projects themselves is not a good solution. I would like to have
multiple hhc files for the projects so that the topics can easily
be inserted in their logical place in the master TOC.

Hi,
I am TW working jointly with another TW on a huge multifirm
project for a same client. He is well versed in RH, while I am a
beginner (with using RH) not with TW. He and I each produce large
parts of what will be merged into a single huge context sensitive
.chm file. Having experimented a bit with possibilities such as the
ones you are exploring, I thought we could use it for our project.
But the other TW felt we would have problems down the road.
Just to confirm what John says. But then, I also am not
adding anything positive by way of solution. Hope somebody else
reacts to these two successive negative answers, and comes up with
help for you.

Can I use multiple IDs for one iTunes and multiple devices

We have one family computer with iTunes, my older brother has an iPhone and I have an iPhone. A family ID was previously used to purchase songs for the family to share. My older brother has created an apple ID for his iPhone, and l have a yet unused apple ID. my brother downloaded songs etc onto the family iTunes that I would like to share, there are songs on the family apple ID that we would both like. Can you download purchases from multiple apple IDs into one iTunes account, then sync that data onto multiple phones that each have a separate ID? Is iTunes linked to one ID? Can purchases from multiple IDs be grouped together in our family account. Also do I Actually need a separate Apple for my iPhone to prevent private messages and contacts being shared?
Thanks for any advice

I forgot to add my iPhone is brand new and unused, and also that the iTunes account has non purchased songs on there. Can these be shared. As it is a new computer the purchases from the family ID have not been downloaded yet

Recommended design for using multiple PGs for one ACD

Ref: ICM 8.5 with Avaya Aura CM 6.3 and AES 6.3
We have been told by Cisco that we should not have more than 3000 agents+CTI on our current PG pair. Since we project we will exceed 3000 agents before the end of the year, we are planning to add another PG pair (with CTI). We have several different lines of business so we just assumed that we should migrate some to be exclusively on the new PG pair. Of course, that means we will also have to Translation Route calls transferred between the LOB.
This set us to thinking that there might be a better way. Does anyone here currently deal with ICM and an Avaya ACD with more than 3000 agents? If so, can you please share your architecture? Specifically, do both of your PG pair share the same AES with different Signal ID? If so, do you share or separate the Switch Links?
Thank you in advance for taking the time to respond.

Thanks for responding, Chris. We are not using CUCM. We have Avaya Aura CM. As such, our Cisco Sales Engineer was quite definitive that our PGs will support 3000 with CTIOS. We do not use CAD.
The dual-PG design was our plan. However, my question is more about whether each PIM needs a separate AES Signal ID and, if so, whether each Signal ID needs a separate CTI link. I know those are more Avaya-specific question but I'm hoping there is someone on here with a similar environment.
I had an additional thought today: It is possible to configure PIMs on two different servers with the same Logical Controller ID such that we would not have to change any Translation Routes. The Services and SkillGroups would still be separate, of course.

How to use multiple events on one project?

I want to make a show reel, this obviously involves using various events.
I'm worried if I do this the whole file system will be a mess. Surely I should be sopying any files I want to use into the new showreel folder?
How can i do this?
Or is using various events ok?
Hope someone ca recomend the best way forward

You can edit from any event into the project. There is no need to copy the clips into a new event. When you're done you can archive the used clips into a new event.

Can you use multiple TOCs in one project at different times?

I am new to RoboHelp and I have version 11. The premise is that I have inserted a map of the United States and I have placed and image map for each state to direct them to the individual state's topic I have created. But I want to customize each state's table of contents. Is that possible? If so how is it done? Any help is much appreciated.
Thank you.

Can we step back and clarify what you mean by customising each state's TOC?
The image map takes the user to a topic for that state. If the project is set to keep the topics synchronised to their position in the TOC, the user will see what you have set up in that states chapter.
What is it that you want to happen that is not provided by that?

Project Report for One Project Using Excel

Hi,
Is is possible to create a report for one project using excel?
I want to create a pdp with an Excel Viewer web part and have the following tabs with data specific to the one project.
1. Cover
2. Issues
3. Risks
4. Deliverables
I tried passing the ProjUid to an Excel doc via the Excel Query Filter Web Part and was able to filter the Issues lists only but don't know if its possible to filter out the other tabs by using the same paramater. Is this possible?
I have not looked at Odata but was wondering if it was possible to pass a paramater to the odata query and still have the spreadsheet work in a web view in SharePoint?

Hi,
I'd say that as far as you promote the Proj UID field as a filter in all sheets of your Excel workbook, using the Excel
Query Filter Web Part should work fine. But testing it should be easy, since you already did half of the work.
See excellent article from Andrew on this topic:

How to use multiple hierarchies for a single char in single query

Hi,
Is there any way that we can use multiple hierarchies for a single char in single query. I tried and it just allows me to select one hierarchy even if I use hierarchy variable.
I have a requirement where user wants to see information related to a cost center with different cost center groups in different hierarchies (every year has different cost center group hierarchies).
Suppose I want to see information related to a cost center from year 2001-2004.in these four year cost center may have been associated to different groups depending upon that year hierarchy. How can I do that?
Thanks
Jona

Nope. Now way to do this.
There is always just one hierarchy assigned to a characteristic. And even if the hierarchy was time dependent, it only reads it for one key date and not according to transaction data.
Regards,
Beat

Can you have multiple users for one account?

Can you have multiple users for one account? if so how do you set it up.
We are using it for our department and it would be great to see who created what form instead of it being all one name.

Each person should have their own account. You can easily share the forms with other people in your department. You will be able to see who the author of the form is.

Using multiple ipods on one installation if itunes

Please help - Is it possible to use multiple ipods with one itunes install with Win XP? background - we have one pc in our family with itunes, I am the only one with an ipod (a nano) my mum and sister want to get ipods too and we have been told all the music would be transferred from the main itunes library to each ipod. We each want our own music area. Is it possible for us each to have a library (or music folder) that won't write over each others ipod? hope this makes sense...I can't find anything clear in the itunes or ipod manual..Jake, aged 9.

I have the exact same problem..
Please please email me when you get an answer

Can you use multiple plugins on one piece of media?

can you use multiple plugins on one piece of media?
...so for example have one plugin for a UI control bar, another for tracking, and another for advertising?
If this is possible how? What types of plugin would each plugin be and what sort of media element would be required?
Or is this not the correct approach? If not what would the correct approach be?
Thanks in advance for support.

I have got this plugin to set it's proxiedElement.
To do so, I needed to follow David_RealEyes advice too.
But I still can not acheive what I set out to find out, all I was trying to do was trace the current time of the videoElement, to begin to understand how plugins work. Can anyone advise please? Thanks in advance for support.
I thought to acheive this I would just need to add a listener for like this:
dispatcher.addEventListener(TimeEvent.CURRENT_TIME_CHANGE, onTimeChange);
Then write the function like this:
private function onTimeChange(e:TimeEvent):void
             trace('**********onTimeChange: '+ e.time)
...But this doesn't work.
What am I doing wrong?

Can we use multiple queries on one template

Can we use multiple queries on one template

Hi,
if you're using data templates for your data set, you
can put multiple queries in the XML data template.
The queries may then be linked (or not) by the "link
name" tag ...
Grtz.Following you answer here...do you know eventually how/if possible to preview a report (with XMLP Desktop) that is using data templates for the data set?
