WAY off topic - Apple Store Video class... summer sessions

Last summer right before I took my family on vacation I saw that the apple stores were having a 'children's' video camp. Didn't match up with the time were were in town. Ugh.
Would there have been anyone here who went... or sent their kids? I'd love to send my older kids there with my DVX... um... D8.

Sorry this is way off topic...NYC Petition, please have a look

I know this is WAY off topic for this forum, but this is the only forum I follow and contribute to. And since we will ALL be affected by this at some point or another if we visit NYC I think it is worth all of our attention.
Here is the text from the email I got from the APA...(link at bottom)
The Mayor's office in New York City is seeking to instate a new rule that would require permits and proof of insurance for any group of 2 or more persons using a camera in a public area. The regulations would require that anyone using a tripod or shooting in one location for more than 30 minutes (including set-up and break down time) must obtain permits and show proof of insurance of at least 1 million dollars per occurrence. Read more about the new rules here: http://www.nyc.gov/html/film/html/news/080107_proposed_permit_rules.shtml
We all need to act now to fight these proposed regulations which will place absurd restrictions on the freedom to photograph in New York City's public spaces.
This affects not only professional photographers but the First Amendment rights of anyone with a camera to spontaneously document what happens on the streets of this city.
Due to pressure from advocacy groups, the Mayor's Office has agreed to extend the period that it will allow public commentary until August 3rd.
Picture New York has initiated an online petition opposing the new rules, which over 12,000 indidivuals have signed so far. The petition is closing on August 3rd. Please take a moment to sign if you have not already done so.
Here is the link to sign the petition:

you have to be careful with your variables:
the declared variables inside the actionlistener(s) are not these in your main class!!
what you might do:
a) let your main-class implement ActionListener
public class MainClass extends PARENTCLASS implements ActionListener {
   public static void actionPerformed(ActionEvent ae) {
}b) create your own event handler
public class MainClass extends PARENTCLASS {
   public MainClass() {
      insert.addActionListener(new YourActionListener(this));
public class YourActionListener extends ActionListener {
   private MainClass main;
   public YourActionListener(MainClass parent) {
      main = parent;
   public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent ae) {
      main.year = "abc";
      main.id = "id";
      // or implement setXXX methods -> main.setYear("abc"); main.setId("id"); ...
}hope it helps...

HT1918 Can you buy stuff off of apple store like head phones from a gift card?

Can you buy stuff off of apple store like head phones from a gift card?

Not with an itunes gift card.

When is the day off of apple store?

when is the day off of apple store?

I'm not even American! I'm British.
And anyways, I do understand that some countries don't celebrate Christmas. That's why I put 'Happy Holidays' to indicate this Christmas, the New Year and all the other holidays around this time period.
And I think over 50% of Apple Stores will have shut today due to Christmas anyway, mainly due to most Apple Stores being in the US and Europe.

Apple store videos won't import into Video iPod

I spent about 19 hours over the last few days talking with mac support phone people, my own Mac repair guy, and the "geniuses" at the local Apple store, and no-one seems to know why I can't get the tv episode I downloaded from the Apple store website to go onto my new video iPod. The Apple store "genius" I first talked to noticed I had an iPod programmed to work in Windows, even though I have a G4, running 10.4.3, with the newest versions of iPhoto, Quicktime, and iTunes, and told the guy that info when I ordered the thing in October. The "genius" did a system restore, and loaded a couple of music videos, which I could view.
When I synced it up to my computer, I got the dialog box asking if I wanted to associate the iPod with my computer instead of the one at the store. I did, and I lost the ability to import videos. When I clicked on the iPod icon at the bottom of the iTunes page to see preferences, both video and photo buttons were missing. Calls up to the 2nd level of iTunes support and Desktop support failed to restore it, even after I did an archive install of Tiger. I finally installed Tiger on another internal drive (it had Panther), updated everything, and when I boot from that drive, I see the video and photo buttons in the iPod preferences. After making my other drive point to my iTunes library on the first hard-drive, I re-downloaded all of my music files to the iPod, but it still won't import the tv show (it also no longer allows me to import my podcasts). Apple support personnel recommended I exchange the iPod for another one, but the folks at the local Apple store wouldn't let me, even though I have a case number (#56524834, in case any Apple monitors want to help out). I've lost so much time and have become so frustrated (I could have watched the show on my Mac 19 times by now; it does play on the computer, so I know the file works) that I'm thinking of dumping my Apple stock. After all, if the customer service is this lousy for a guy who's always used Macs, I think the company is going to lose ground to other companies. Any ideas on how I can get the videos into my iPod (and regain the ability to import podcasts)? thanks, in advance!

But it was the actual MP4 file downloaded from Apple's own website, so I doubt that it was encoded incorrectly. I think it's faulty software, and I'm waiting for Apple to release a patch to fix it. But I don't expect they'll admit it. On the other hand, I can't help but wonder if it has something to do with the fact that my iPod was originally encoded to work on PCs.
I'm not an expert but my understanding is that the files are supposed to be independent of the HD here. If you were able to load any files to the iPod before this problem, then I don't see why HD format should be a problem in this one particular case.
As to the file being from Apple's own web site, I don't consider that a guarantee that mistakes won't be made. However, as a commercial ($$$) enterprise, I consider their product in a "professional" light and hold them to a higher standard than I would others. The file I previosuly mentioned was, strangely enough, a tutorial on podcasting. It is from a series dealing with Apple products (like Aperture) and techniques (like exporting an iPod compatible file from iMovie or batch procissing in QT using Automator) so I assumed the authors are either Apple Techs or Apple "Specialists." That is why I was surprised when one of the podcasts would not sync.
In any case, the conversion of media to iPod compatible format and podcasting is in what... a 60-75 day infancy. So I do expect there will be problems. Especially based on the mistakes I've made in performing any own conversions and initial podcasting test of a public domain (old 1936 Republic "Saturday" matinee movie) Ray "Crash" Corrigan serial. Software, techniques, and workflows simply aren't "perfected" at this point, so I tend to try and learn from the mistakes -- both my own and others.
On the other hand, however, it might be a god idea to post a list of "problem" podcast files to see if these problems are actually file related, download related, or unique to individual iPods. In any case, best of luck to you.

Audio production education (way off topic)

Hi all, sorry for the off-topic Q but I'm thinking about "formalizing" my audio production learning. Has anyone had any experience, good or bad, with Berklee's online courses? It's pro tools heavy, but what one learns in one DAW can be ported to another I imagine.
Thanks much!

I've taken several online courses with Berklee, and found them to be very good. The only issue you really want to be clear about, is that you have necessary prior knowledge to take the class. The Pre-requisites.
You must already be computer savy. You may need to have a certain background knowledge too. For instance, I was taking an arranging class, and we had to upload homework every 2 days. They recommended using Finale. It might take me 2 hours to do the assignment, but then it took me another 5 to figure out how to use finale, to get the assignment to look right. I ended up using Logic's scoring, which was fine, but the benefit of using Finale would have been, all the other students could have downloaded my assignment, and played in in Finale, and heard it exactly as I did it..
Each subject you take might have a different pre-requisite knowledge.. Some classes really don't much of anything.. Some classes use textbooks, or require CD's, others suggest where you can find free materials to assist with. Most classes you need to do some kind of homework, and upload. Some students had trouble with that and dropped out..
I would say that Berklee online is an excellent experience... It is EXPENSIVE though. The only fault I could point out is the above, prior knowledge that one might need to know to take a course. In my experience, the administration was a little too lax with that, in order to sell you a course.
I'm not sure about taking a pro-tools course, and hoping it will give you a lot of knowledge about using cu-base or Logic.. Yes a lot of concepts will 'port over' to another area.

Way off topic ACR

Hi
I realise this is way off track but I can't find a solution anywhere. When I start up bridge and try to go to camera Raw I get told editing is not enabled.
I've searched the web abd it seems to be a well know issue but in the Bridge, photoshop or ACR forums there is no solution listed.
Has anyone else had this with the wen premium suite and found a solution?
thanks

Off-Topic - Apple Exchange!

Sorry for posting this here - wasn't really sure where to put it!
But - do Apple off some kinds of exchange/trade-in for up-grading you mini?!?
For example - I want a new Nano - do they offer the chance to trade in my 4 month old mini plus X amount of cash for a new NANO - it just seems a waste to get a new NANO and the MINI go to waste?!?!
Sorry if this is stupid!

Apple is selling refurbished minis for $160. I think you'd probably be able to get around $145-150 for yours, if it is in very good condition, because it isn't refurbished by Apple. Just my guess...

Way off Topic - Need to improve my vision with new glasses

I’m sorry posting this kind of question here but I thought since we are all all Mac users and some of us work in front the screen everyday I decided to ask a recommendation here.
I’m a EPP operator and my station is an iMac 27 hardware calibrated, at home I use the 23 aluminum cinema. My vision has degraded a lot in the past 2 years. I’ve seen a doctor who gave me a prescription for new glasses. Is it better to get a pair of glasses just for the computer (wich I have most difficulty to see) or a lens that is for both, long distance (which my is not that bad) and for arm distance (computer). Is there a specific type of lens grade that I should look for?
I asked this question for the Dr. he says I should get one pair that I can use for both but I’m having problems with that.
I really need to see the screen well for color correction and setup the files for the presses.
Thanks again and sorry this type of question

OK...I've spent weeks trying to find a way to save my library. Finally I came across a little program call
"Podup". This little application did the trick exactly right.
But...first application I tried was "Touchcopy". I'm sorry but this thing just didnt work good. Touchcopy tried to do way too much. Everytime I would try to send large selection of my music back to itunes Touchcopy would freeze. Touchcopy was not copying over all of my album work either. This was the slowest program! I spent at least 2 days trying different ways to make this thing work right but no luck. If you're looking for a simply way to save your ipod music dont waste your time or money on touchcopy. I'm hoping they will at least give me my money back.
Now...If you want a simple way to save your ipod music then try "podup". I've been looking everywhere for the right tool. I've read hundreds of reviews and all of the products seemed to have alot of problems...some people even losing their songs off of their ipods. I came across "podup" and did not see too many reviews but the few i read were all good. No cost and EASY to use. I was really tired of looking and gave it a shot. Plugged in ipod and hit the copy button. It was really about that easy. Now it took a very looooooooong time to copy 23,000 + songs but it did it! Album artwork copied over also. Out of 23,000+ songs Podup only had 446 errors (songs that did not copy) and i'm pretty sure these files were no good either way.
I hope this helps because it really saved my library. This was the only product i found that would work right with my mac. I had to do the same thing about a year ago on my windows pc and I used "tunejack" which worked just as good.
Good luck

WOT (way off topic): Site appearance

Where would I go to find out why some of this site doesn't display properly on my computer? At least I think it's not right--the font in the tabs at the top and some type at the bottom are outlined and hard to read.

Somebody gave an explanation of what's happening here:
http://doctype.com/browsers-showing-h1-text-outlines
"I encountered a similar issue to what Lee experienced, except that my situation was resolved by deactivating the Helvetica Neue Bold Outline face. Because of the way the font file is named, it gets loaded before regular Helvetica Neue Bold — if you notice, the fonts getting outlined are all bold-faced fonts.
There are a few bugs open for Safari and Firefox that address this issue - it looks like FF 3.5 resolves it, but Safari 4 still has the issue."

Adobe "Shapes" destroyed my display. No reset, no reboot. iTunes sees phone but no display. Off to Apple store.

I attempted using the new Adobe "Shapes" app and my screen went white. I tried shutting app with home button. Screen went black. Siri worked but no display. Tried reset with both buttons - screen totally dead and iTunes reload firmware, sees phone, still no display.

Hi ronrabun,
Thanks for the question. After reviewing your post, it sounds like the screen on the iPhone is blank. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help you isolate or resolve the issue.

WAY off topic, do horses have arms?

Off the wall kind of question, nothing to do with LV!. Does anyone here think that animals like dogs, horses, tigers (etc...) actually have two arms and two legs, rather than the conventional asusmption that they have four legs?
The front limbs are attached to the chest, surely this implies they must be arms!

CLA

Puns are always worth Kudos in my book.
After some additional research (with my wife's help) I have realized that it is not hands that make arms but rather sleeves. Any animal appendge coming froth from a sleeve is an arm.
Case in point:
A bear has paws until you put a shirt on him (Think Edward Bear aka Winnie the Pooh) and bingo they are now arms. The same priciple also applies to wings as in Donald Duck. This rule does not apply to legs where pants are not required.
