What Are The Correct Gray OS X Discs For This Imac?

I got a free 700Mhz G4, 15" Screen, 512mb Ram, 40GB HDD and I was wondering what are the correct OS X discs (Gray) that came with this Mac?
There has to be a serial or model number right? I have Leopard installed on it and I missing having the DVD player so could I connect the iMac to my PowerMac G5 using Target Disc Mode, and then install Panther or Tiger onto the iMac through it?

The correct Mac OS restore discs are Mac OS X 10.1.2 and Mac OS 9.2.2. I have restore discs for a 600MHz Late 2001 iMac G3, which has the same identical software as the iMac G4. That part number for the disc set is 603-0372.
For the second part of your question, you can install Panther or Tiger through Target Disc Mode from your PM G5.

What are the correct Premiere Pro CS4 settings for producing WMV/MP4 to FLV/F4V videos?

Greetings.
I have recently purchased CS4 Production Suite. My task is to convert WMV/MP4 videos to FLV/F4V videos that contain titles, transitions, and credits for streaming from Flash Media Server.
My test videos are experiencing audio sync issues when using Adobe Media Encoder as the export tool. When I use Flash Video Export tool using the source WMV/MP4, I do not experience sync issues.
I can control the WMV/MP4 output settings since we record our own sessions using Windows Media Encoder. I can also utilize Flash Media Live Encoder to capture the source.
The video source comes from a video capture card (Osprey) that is connected to an IP based camera(s) which are controlled by video technicians.
We record from that capture card into WMV format.
My question is, what are the settings in Premiere to produce FLV/F4V for streaming in 480p quality?
I am new to video production and gladly appreciate any assistance.
Regards,
Shack

Jim,
Thank you for your response. I am a total noob at video, but have the requirement to produce recorded video to our FMS servers.
Here is my situation. We have classrooms and auditoriums hard wired with IP cameras. Our video techs can record to DVR and then finalize to DVD (VOB). We also have a control center that can capture those cameras using Windows Media Encoder to record.
I have been given CS4 to produce these videos. Each time that I transcode, the audio gets out of sync. I am trying to figure out a suitable way to take VOB and WMV files into PP and output to FLV/MP4.
Appreciate any advice...

What are the correct setup and system settings for importing HDV video from tape?

I keep trying different "easy setups" and system settings/preferences in order to import both the audio and video from HDV recordings on miniDV tape to no avail in either FCE4 or FCP5. I import via firewire from the camera. My computer "sees" the camera and controls playback (I can hear the audio) but no video displays for capture (just color bars).
My camera is a Canon Vixia HV40 and my computer is a MacBook Pro running Snow Leopard 10.6.8.
I've tried the HDV easy setup...no video...
I've tried HDV 1080i/60 as I saw recommended somewhere else...no video...
Captures standard video just fine but I'd like to try editing some higher def footage.
Any suggestions?
Many thanks.

The combination of all these helpful ideas solved the problem.
I set AV settings to HD and Apple Intermediate Codec HDV 1080i/60 AND set the cameras output to "locked" HDV. Funny, it had been on "A" (Auto) before and should have simply sensed the need for HD output. I then tried to capture using "A" again and this time it detected the difference between SD footage and HDV footage (I had clips of both kinds on the same tape).
I ran similar capture tests on FCP 5.1, FCE 4, and FCPX and all three programs captured HDV video and audio.
Thanks again everyone. Be sure the camera is set to output HDV or "A".

What are the best affordable external drive options for my iMac ?

Hello,
I am a fairly recent newcomer to Macintosh as my primary personal computing platform. I have recently installed Adobe CS4 Design Premium Student Edition on a late 2006 20in iMac and have several important questions about external hard drives. First of all, everyone knows that using any personal computer (whether you its a Macintosh, or a PC running Windows and/or Linux) without an acceptable way to backup critical data is no different than driving in your car without your seat belt fastened. I need advice for a good external hard disk solution for backup and several other important computing tasks given the following realities
1. Contrary to what I to originally thought, I do not have Firewire 800, but instead have access to dual firewire 400 ports in addition to USB 2.0. My concern over connection speed in regards to Adobe's recommendation to use RAID 0 arrays for scratch disks used by Photoshop CS4. Adobe also recommends that scratch disks for photoshop CS4 are assigned on a hard disk that is not your startup disk. Nontheless, Adobe has no objection to use your startup disk assuming it has plently of Free space (and mine does w/ 189.53 GB available)
2. Do really need RAID 0 to achieve the performance I would need? I had prior Mac based training with Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop, and Indesign, in High school. I have not used this software in 4 years and am not only trying to refresh my skills but to learn the software. In other words I am still in the beginner stage With practice and patience, I will certainly learn the software and use it to the best of my creative energies. Given the situation if my work becomes complex enough over time how important is RAID 0 when I make purchase of an external hard disk? I known that the disk utility in Mac OS X allows the user to create a Raid array. This seems like the cheapest way to accomplish the job. However, the purchase of an external Hard Drive must be able to safely backup my system and also provide adequate performance.
3. Speaking of backup, I am one of those users who is still stubbornly clinging to Mac OS X Tiger. However, updating to a new OS has been required ritual for my previous two PCs. That said given that Mac OS 10.6 Snow Leopard will be out in mere months, I do not see the wisdom now in upgrading to Leopard. After all as a higher education student, money is tight and see Snow Leopard as far more compelling and future-proof upgrade. Snow Leopard is getting better plumbing and will also include Microsoft Exchange Server support (possibly the biggest selling point). I also have interest in using Boot Camp in 10.6 (or 10.5) for running windows software (that are useful for my academics) and games (particularly Half-Life 2 and other Steam games that can run well within my Mac's fairly limited gaming capabilities. If I decide to use Boot Camp I have to partition my internal hard disk. This further complicates finding a very reasonable, affordable, and reliable external disk solution given everything that I have mentioned. Any help is highly appreciated.
Thanks.

I don't think you should worry about the RAID stuff. The only way you could create a RAID is by using external drives, or one those external enclosures with two drives inside. Any speed advantage of such a RAID would be mostly negated by the FireWire 400 connection.
Use your internal drive space for speed critical functions. Use a FireWire 400 external drive for additional storage space, where speed is important but not critical, such as storing your existing media (including your things like your iTunes library files). Use a separate cheaper USB 2.0 external drive for your Time Machine (or whatever method) backup archive, where speed is not that important at all (some people even use a network connection for their Time Machine backup).
You can get a FireWire 800 drive and use an adapter to connect to FireWire 400. The connection won't be any faster on your iMac, but you can use the drive later with a Mac that does have FireWire 800. There are drives that have FireWire 400 and 800, and USB 2.0.
I like the drives sold by OWC
http://www.macsales.com/
I often buy the drive enclosure empty and find a good deal on the hard drive mechanism that I want. OWC sells most of their drives empty. My current Time Machine drive is actually one of these USB adapters
http://eshop.macsales.com/item/Newer%20Technology/U2NV2SPATA/
connected to a Western Digital 750GB SATA drive that I got for about $70. Found that deal through dealmac.com. Couldn't think of a cheaper way to add that large amount of backup space, and it works very well. The internal drive in my iMac is only 160GB, so most of my personal data is on an external FireWire 400 drive; both drives are backed up by Time Machine.

What are the benefits of solid state drives for an iMac

I am thinking of getting a new iMac and would like to know the whys and wherefores of a solid state drive, please. The one that is sold with the iMac is 250 gig. Does that mean it's storage capacity is lower than a normal 1TB hard drive?
The views of anybody who has one would be welcome.
Thanks in anticipation.
Jim (West Riding)

The one that is sold with the iMac is 250 gig. Does that mean it's storage capacity is lower than a normal 1TB hard drive?
Yes! But you can access the stuff faster and of course boot faster. They are quiet, run cool, and have low power consumption.

What are the correct steps for installing Oracle Entitlement Server SSM?

Can somebody explain what are the correct steps to install OES SSM 10.1.4.3? I have installed OES admin 10.1.4.3 and applied the CP2 patch. it is allowing me to open Entitlement Administration, where I can define the policy.
Is it sufficient to have this Entitlement Admin to call the policy from BPM? Do I need a SSM ?

What are the correct domain settings @ Go Daddy?

I will set up a Mac Mini Lion Server using server assistant. I bought a domain name from Go Daddy. What are the correct domain (DNS, host) settings @ Go Daddy - need step by step guide; thanks in advance.

I do not fully understand how the PTR pointer works
PTRs map IP addresses back to hostnames - also known as 'reverse DNS'.
The way it works is that when you (or any client) looks up an IP address they first query the root servers that maintain a map of the main IP address allocations. You then query the server that's authoritative for the IP address in question. That server may respond, or may further delegate responsibility to another server.
As an illustration, imagine a company - MegaISP - who's been allocated a large block of IP addresses - say 1.0.0.0 through 1.255.255.255. As an ISP they provide access service in all 50 states so they may further subdivide their network into chunks and delegate control of each chunk to a different server, e.g. 1.1.0.0 - 1.1.255.255 -> CA, 1.2.0.0 - 1.2.255.255 -> NY, etc.
Now you, as a customer of MegaISP, connect to their server and are allocated a dynamic address from the 1.2.0.0 - 1.2.255.255 subnet - let's say 1.2.3.4
When you perform a reverse lookup on 1.2.3.4 your query first goes to the root servers which say something like 'hey, those IPs are owned by MegaISP's DNS servers, so go ask them'. You then query MegaISP's main servers which then say 'hey, that IP is somewhere in the New York subnet, so go query the New York DNS server. Your query then goes to MegaISP's New York server that replies something like 'host-1-2-3-4.ny.megaisp.net' and that' your reverse lookup.
(of course, this is greatly simplified, and the whole process takes a fraction of a second, but hopefully you get the idea).
The problem you now have is that MegaISP have no idea what services you're running on your connection, so they just return a generic response (e.g. host-1-2-3-4.ny.megaisp.net) and not something that relates to your domain (e.g. www.yourdomain.net). Nobody knows to ask your DNS server what hostname your IP address should map to.
In order for that last step, MegaISP either have to change their DNS servers to map your IP address to your domain name rather than the generic hostname, or they have to further delegate your IP address's lookup to your own server (i.e. add another link in the chain - like 'hey, that IP address is delegated to yourdomain.net, so go ask their server').
Most ISPs are happy to either delegate or have a custom entry for your domain, but not on dynamic or residential-grade connections - it's not worth the time and effort to keep it up to date as your IP address changes, which is why it's typically only something that comes with business-grade services.
and what limitations this will lead to
Any service that relies on valid reverse DNS is doomed to fail. For the most part, http doesn't matter/care, but don't expect to run a mail server or certain other services.

What are the correct Time Capsule Airport Utility Disk options?

During configuration of the Time Capsule what are the correct options/settins in the Airport Utility on the Disk tab? Does File Sharing interfere with Server File Saring>

You can turn on file sharing.. it will not interfere with your server since it has a different IP address.
You can use either device password or disk password.. do not use the profiles as that complicates things.. and Apple did not build in a link to Server to use standard user login which is a great pity.. when you have an active directory type setup it .. the TC could have been made a lot more business like.. However apple really have the TC aimed at the domestic market and users without a server.
What are you intending to use the TC for?
Most people would be better buying an airport extreme rather than TC when they are running business setup.

Transfer ADOBE creative Suite from an old Mac to a new Mac, I have the code but I don't have a CD. What are the correct steps?

Hi
I bought a new Mac and I want to transfer my Adobe Creative Suit CS6 to it from my old one. What are the correct steps? Please note that I don't have a CD because I downloaded it via the net. It was an upgrade for the student edition. I heard something about deactivation and reactivation but I don't want to do something wrong then lose my precious software. Please help. Thanks.

You can download the software and install it using the page linked below.
CS6 - http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/cs6-product-downloads.html
You are allowed to have the software installed and activated on two machines, so there should be no reason to deactivate it on your other machine, or at least you can wait until you see it loaded and working on the new one.

My new 4s cannot send emails; emails are rejected by server. What are the correct settings?

What are the correct settings when my new 4s can receive but will not send messages. The emails are rejected by the server,

You're going to have to ask your e-mail provider. We don't have the slightest clue who that is, much less what the correct settings would be.

HANA is a data source (which could contain non-SAP data)
For other Excel front-ends that may connect to "non-SAP" data look at Live Office or Power BI by Microsoft - see Excel and Power BI connectivity to SAP BusinessObjects Universes | Power BI

What are the steps to make it seamless for a customer to use the install program and then use the installed program?

I wrote an install program (.exe) that is downloaded from a website. When run, it 1) leads a customer to browse to a directory, and 2) copies files (.exe, .dll, etc.) from a website to that directory. When I run, the installed program works.

This site https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/vstudio/2kt85ked%28v=vs.110%29.aspx provides a basic description of the Visual Studio Windows Installer.
Near the bottom of the page is "You can unlock all the features of InstallShield by paying to upgrade to the full version of InstallShield." Where do I find info that describes the differences between the "free" and the "full"
versions?

Hello,
The default feature does support the task for your requirement, so there is no need to pay for the other features unless you want to use some feature which is not free.
In addition, as this thread
InstallShield LE not available with VS 2012 RTM? shared, even through there is a link to InstallShield LE in the New Project dialog under Deployment solutions, but it belongs to third-party that I would recommend you consider posting this issue
at the following forum to get supports about InstallShield.
