•What App. are you guys using as your library????????

Hi,
I own Aperture (bought recently) and am in the process of moving my large iPhoto library over. Are you pro users using Aperture as your primary image file library (as in the place you upload your cards to)? I was curious because it seems to store them in a proprietary format, and before I get into moving hundreds more images I thought I would ask. I have 2-300 gigs of usable space but Aperture seems like it could get huge with image adjustments.
Thanks,

Hi Eric,
I'm not a pro, but I wanted to clear up one of your issues. Aperture does not store or convert your files in a proprietary format. The image files that you store in the library will remain in their original format and untouched. The "Library" is a Mac OS X entity called a package. A package appears as a single file, but it's an illusion. If you ever needed to extract your image files, you can do so in the Finder (without Aperture) by option-clicking on the "Library" and selecting "Show Package Contents". Now you can navigate the file and folder structure to get at your originals. Of course, a much faster and easier way is to have Aperture export the originals. However, my point was to clear up the "proprietary" structure misunderstanding.
Also--as was mentioned--each adjustment doesn't create a new image file. Every new version of your original is merely a list of instructions or "recipe" used to apply adjustments to the original to recreate the version for screen and print. This is done dynamically, on the fly. A finished version of the original is never created and saved to a file until you tell it to export a version. Thus, every version is a very small addition to the database. This is very unlike iPhoto, where every new version of a file creates a new image to store...all the more reason to move to Aperture.
Hope that helps.

Iba allow others to make text edits. What workflow are you guys using to allow others to make text edits once the iBook has been layed out and formatted? Is it too late? Do I need to export txt then reimport the editted text and reformat it all again?

Hi Ken,
Thanks for the reply. The project I am working on is a test project for a customer. They could potentially want a number of their educational subjects presented as an interactive text book. The intent of this first project with them is to establish a logical workflow that will allow us to efficiently estimate costs and allow for review throughout the design process. Having worked with customers on creative projects in the past I can anticipate that they will want a number of changes made once they see a working version of the interactive text book.
It is a grim reality that no project can be fully edited and planned prior to working on it and I know revisions and changes are always made once the customer can see their product. It is ok with me if there is no easy way to pass the text back and forth from the customer and me without having to reformat everything but I just want to know that is the way it works in order to provide a realistic time estimate for the project.
My hope was I would be able to export the formatted text, allow them to make edits and then reimport that formatted text. The style sheets I am using are from one of the iBooks Author templates.
Do you know if there is a way to use (or export ) this style sheet so it can be used in a Pages Document?
Or, would the best option be to have the customer install iBooks Author? This would require the customer to have a mac and the software so it doesn't work for all cases.
Another idea I was considering would be to export the book as a PDF and have the customer add markup and notes to the PDF.
All of these options do not seem too great to me.
I am open to any ideas.
Thanks,
Rob

What functionality are you successfully using in your EO SuperClasses?

Hi Everyone:
We are very new to JHeadstart/JDeveloper and have just established the method we are going to use at the Entity Level to convert input to Uppercase by putting the following code into a superclass and extending the .xml files of the entities from EntityImpl to this superclass which we called UWEntityImpl.
What I am wondering is what other ways is this functionality being used by you more experienced JHeadstart Developers? I am trying not to re-invent the wheel and utilize methods that have worked well for you.
Of course I can think of toLowerCase, what else are you using?
Thanks so much in advance.

Example Code:
package its.sis.BusinessModel.model;
import oracle.jbo.AttributeDef;
import oracle.jbo.server.EntityImpl;
public class UWEntityImpl extends EntityImpl {
public UWEntityImpl () {
// This code converts the inputted string to Uppercase in the database.
// April 27, 2007 mb
protected void setAttributeInternal(int i, Object object) {
Object value = object;
AttributeDef def = getEntityDef().getAttributeDef(i);
if ("true".equalsIgnoreCase((String)def.getProperty("UPPERCASE"))) {
if (value != null && value instanceof String) {
value = ((String)value).toUpperCase();
super.setAttributeInternal(i, value);
}

What software are you guys using to encode the videos on the

Ipod? I'm using windows and right now I'm using the 3gp converter for the psp to put the videos on my ipod. What's other good software what's going to give me the best quality? I don't care how big they are i just want the best quality. Thanks alot!

I found this really grreat application! it "rips" a dvd and converts it to the setting the ipod can read. its called handbrake
here is the site that will guide you through the process(really great website):
http://arstechnica.com/guides/tweaks/ipod-video.ars/4
be prepared to wait a while....it takes a long time! i have an ibook g4 and what i did was start the ripping on a couple of episodes of king of queens and then just closed the ibook and when i woke up in the morning it was done.....even when the ibook went to sleep(idk how..l0l)
but yea try it out if thats what ur tryin to do...it works like a charm...real ez 2!
hope this helps!
btw- the quality is rather impressive 2!!!

What cases are you guys using?

my ipod touch is incased in,
http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.do?product_id=8145073
and then carried around in,
http://www.seidioonline.com/ProductDetails.asp?ProductCode=CSL4IPH%2DH

I tried the typical hard case...but I too found that the fm transmitter I was using wouldn't click in while I was using it. For that matter the USB cable wouldn't fit either. Other wise I thought it would protect my ipod decently. (I was worried about little specks of dirt sneaking in and scratching, but I didn't keep it that long.
I used one of the rubber kind, but discarded it due to excessive bulk and it not being very pretty.
I have one of the skins on my 30 G 5th Gen iPod, but its more of a sticker than anything, and I was disappointed with the outcome. (Though it does look awesome!)
For the last 5 months or so I've been using this one: http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.do?product_id=7983343 I love it! It looks nice, even though its a little bulky. I do have issues using it while I play some of the apps games since sometimes it wants to slide out.
I had thought for the longest time that I needed a screen protector, but with the case I'm using I don't really feel that is necessary. Since recieving my iPod in December I have not received a single scratch, so I don't see getting one anytime soon.

With the latest version of itunes, are you able to search your library by purchase date?

With the latest version of itunes, are you able to search your library by purchase date? My prior itunes software had Name, Time, Artist, Album, Genre, Rating, Plays and Purchased. With Version 11.0.3 of itunes, 'Purchased' is not a tabbed option to sort. Can this be added?
Thanks.

Hey jeffwcincy,
Great question, we simply need to check "Purchased Date" from the View Options menu.
In iTunes 11, click the "View" menu and choose "Show View Options". Located under "Stats" is the "Purchase Date" option.

So how is it fire fox keeps crashing for everyone but the firefox team. are you guys using Chrome or something?

Firefox 36.0.1
So firefox keeps crashing on youtube, Facebook, Brainjet, Answers.com. It's often sites that have either forums or auto start videos.
YET I keep seeing you guys asking for some "Error codes" as if you've NEVER had that problem. So how about this. Instead of assuming that my NON-ADD ON version is the corrupted puppy, tell us what in god's name you guys use.
Chrome, Safari, IE? there's no way in hell you're using Facebook, Youtube, things that use flash and NOT seeing the crash. So every time you guys ask us for those codes you're lying and hiding the fact that it also happens to you, or you're using something where it doesn't happen.
I'm amazed that if I open up 3 or 4 windows, sometimes 2 Facebook, a youtube. and something that has comments section, I'm getting this thing locking up and all the research I was doing is wasted where I have to start again.
So… Don't ask me for any codes. Just tell me what you're using because obviously it's NOT crashing. Frankly I'm shocked so many people keep having the same problems but not one of you guys seem to experience it. I'm beginning to doubt this "surprise" error stuff.

To be fair, I use a heavily modded version of Fx and my only complaint is memory leakage (starts 450,000K with a few tabs open, flash, etc. and gets up to 1,400,000K even if new tab page is the only thing open). That's probably a plugin issue for me though.
Usually when Fx crashes it pops up with the crash report menu. You should be able to find some more info about the crash there. It could be a corrupt Fx file, a problem with the JIT compiler, your video card drivers, or even your computer hardware like faulty RAM.
This help page also mentions a few common causes and how to fix them:

Is there a way to see what apps are on the phones under your account?

Can anyone tell me if you can see the apps that are on each phone under your account?

As noted earlier, your Google account lists the apps you've downloaded for your account. So unless someone has your Google credentials, they're only visible to you.
As Jakeman1 said, log into Google Play from a computer (or request the desktop version from a mobile device). On the left, click Apps. Then underneath that, click My Apps. Just to the right of that, click the drop-down next to All Apps and you can see what apps have been downloaded by device. You also can assign nicknames for the devices via the Settings (the gear in the upper right-hand corner).

UBER ANGERY TECHNICIAN..... WHAT ARE YOU GUYS THINKING!!!

Hi I've been in the business of end-user repair, training and servicing for about 20 years. I've owned computers from every major manufacture on the market and I've repaired computers from every single manufacture on the market. This will be the second time in my life that I've actualy taken the time to register and post to a manufacturer forum....
Today I serviced an IBM Lenovo PC Model#41V9706 Like any intelligent technician I backed up all the customers irreplaceable data prior to beginning, and was informed that the customer had NO disks to speak of for their system. At first I thought, "ahh, common customer disguarding their important disks... As usual, But then I looked at his face and realized he was 65 and rich... Any way I found the restore application on the hard drive, ran it and created a boot disk. I then proceeded to try to restore from the backups on the drive. Didn't work (Great job btw on making good working backups....) Finally I did a manufacture restore and the @#$@ing thing deleted the entire drive BEFORE it told me that I needed more disks to do the manufacture restore. Are you guys out of your mind creating a program that is so backward that it doesn't even tell you that with out the disks it leaves the system completely useless? As of yet all of the lenovo software is now gone, I've had to install a fresh and blank copy of windows using the customers install key and NOW I can't even get their factory software back onto the system because a copy of it doesn't appear to exist.
I'm sorry to be so frank but what the heck kind of restore program deletes all the backups before it tells you it can't help you?! Even windows doesn't do that. If I am ever to recommend or endorse another IBM product it will need to show some intelligence in it's design and include fail-safes or at least some kind of warning system to let people know that it is completely useless before it deletes data. I am in the process of contacting customer service about this but I am not hopeful as my experience shows that for a small fee of $49.99 I might have the software replaced... What a royal piece of crap.
Your backup product receives a lousy 2 in my book your only redeeming qualities are it's ease of use and it's ability to work when windows doesn't.
Jess

call lenovo 800 in your country to get the original software disk and drivers, if you are in warranty time you get no fee to paid, and is 3 to 5 days to receive the disks

What do you guys use for scratch disks on iMac?

We're about to upgrade to new iMacs / Mac Pros and I'm wondering what you guys use for your second scratch disk? Thunderbolt dock? Thunderbolt G-Raid?
Has anyone successfully made their global scratch disk their fibre connected shared storage (Terrablock) and not had Premiere behave strangely? That would be the best option I think, but found that Premiere froze up a lot more when we did.

I have a pair of 4-bay Pegasus Thunderbolt 2 enclosures attached to my Mac Pro, and one of the volumes in one of the enclosures is my scratch space.

*** are you guys doing???

I am getting really tired of the constant switching between different display modes!!!! What the **** are you guys thinking?!?! I always choose "list by release date" Sometimes you can list the TV shows appropriately by release date. Other times, iTunes list them by day of the week. Finally, just now, you can only list them by some other - have no idea - method!!! This is totally frustrating. BE CONSISTENT!!! I am getting ready to just say the **** with iTunes and go back to comcast. Seriosuly. This is untenable!! Fix it and be consistent or goodbye!!!!!!

How are you going to backup your system?

Are you going to backup your files to an external hard drive? If so what?
Are you doing to backup your files to your 2nd internal hard drive? How?

RAID is not a backup
Yes… it is. Backup is by definition is "the procedure for making extra copies of data in case the original is lost or damaged". Nothing more.
With a RAID mirror you have two or more originals which makes it a backup. Does it provide an archive or revision history of your data… no. But that's beside the point. It is a backup. Does it protect you against all circumstances that results in data loss… no. Again, that's beside the point.
A RAID mirror is still a backup,
RAID is protection from hardware failure. If a drive dies, you have a full working copy of everything... that's great.
Not always true! Under some RAID schemes a member failure will result in complete data loss. RAID is not always about "protection from hardware failure".
Only something that archives… [snip]
Not everyone is prepared to and sometimes not even capable of having such a rigourous scheme as you do. For the vast majority of users out there who have no contingency plan what so ever the best solution is in fact a RAID mirror as it's a no effort and cheap solution. It's a solution that protects against a very specific circumstance. For a more complete protection you are right, other means should make up the rest of the package.
While RAID mirrors shouldn't be a standalone solution it should be considered as part of a complete scheme.

Isn't there an app that can track what apps are using up your resources?

There really ought to be! My battery time stinks, I have to recharge my phone all the time, it's I took it off the charger at 8:15 and it's down to 84% and I barely used my phone today. I've tried every suggestion I found on here and it hasn't helped. The one thing that COULD help is if there was some kind of task manager like in windows that showed you what apps are using which resources so at least I could tell if there's something running that is constantly using up all the resources and milking my battery. This is really frustrating. I just checked and my battery is now at 83% and it's been locked this whole time. I'm sorry but that is not normal.

another symptom--after doing nothing but some light texting, she sent 30 mb of data in an hour. That strikes me as being way out of line.

How are you guys powering your laptops in your cars ???

Hi guys,
Although I have been using computers since the first pc appeared, I only recently decided to get a laptop. I got a Lenovo B560 and have been absolutely delighted with it.
However, I am perplexed at the fact that there does not seem to be any easy options for using the laptop in the car on long trips etc ? I do not see any type of 12 volt adapter listed in the accessories ?? A google search shows a few "generic" brand power converters but I have always been leary of using anything but oem type equipment.
Anyway, how are you guys powering your machines while mobile ??
Thanks,
Bill

Your tip size is 2.5mm x 5.5mm, 19volts, and your current adapter is 90watts, right?
Your tip size is the same as what is in the y450, y460, y550p, y550, y560, and the y730.
The y730 is listed under the adapter listed above as taking the 4R 4319 tip, which is the same size as yours.
The tip, Pt. # 46 4319 is listed as an optional tip for the ultraslim adapter, Pt. #4IN8460, that tip has to be ordered separately from the adapter, it doesn't come with it.
Scroll to the bottom of the link for the adapter and you'll see the listing for the 19 volt tip, pt. #4R 4319.
All this is assuming that you have integrated graphics.
