Why have you removed the bookmarks side panel button? This is THE most important feature of firefox.

Since last update of firefox, the button to open the side bar bookmarks have been removed (ctrl+B) equivalent.
I don't want to do a ctrl+B command in a graphical interface that I use so often. There is no good enough extension for that task.
This is THE reason I used firefox since the begining.
I have gazillions of bookmarks cleanly ordered since YEARS of web browsing. This is the way I use internet. If I have a project I create a folder and I put every interesting links I want to remember in it. There is no way to do that in a dropdown menu which close at every click.
I know people who use chrome and keep up to 60 tab open just to remember what they need.
I just spent half a day searching for proper extension in chrome and opera.
I feel so frustrated and powerless in front of browser developpement, I have to tell it. I would gladly pay 20$ per year to keep that function there, a single button sending ctrl+B command, so simple and already coded.
Firefox was my only browser for years, I leave you with that. Now I'm going to download and try the new internet explorer.

You can find the link to open the bookmarks in the sidebar at the top of the bookmark menu button list that opens if you click the folder button (Show your bookmarks) next to the bookmarks star on the Navigation Toolbar.
You can look at the Classic Theme Restorer extension to restore some functionality that was lost with the arrival of the Australis style in Firefox 29.
*Classic Theme Restorer: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/classicthemerestorer/
*You can check out the settings of the CTR extension via its Options/Preferences button on the "Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions" page.
*You can find extra toolbar buttons and more toolbar settings in Customize (3-bar Firefox menu button > Customize)
In current Firefox releases (29 and later), that have have the Australis user interface, the orange Firefox menu button has been replaced by the three-bar Firefox Menu button at the far right end of the Navigation Toolbar and this button is always visible, whether you have the menu bar visible or hidden A consequence of this location is that you no longer can hide the Navigation Toolbar
*There is a star like button next to the search bar on the Navigation Toolbar to bookmark the current web page and a "Show your bookmarks" button next to it to open the Bookmarks in a drop down menu. You can find "Show All Bookmarks" to open the Bookmarks Manager (Library) at the bottom of this drop-down list
*If you bookmark a page then "Bookmark This Page" in the Bookmarks menu changes to "Edit This Bookmark"
*You can make the title bar visible via the "Title Bar" button at the bottom left in the Customize palette window
It is still possible to have the menu bar visible via the right-click context menu of a toolbar to have menus like the File menu with Print (Ctrl+P) and Print Preview and the Bookmarks menu available.

Creative, the most important feature I use is Dolby/DTS decoding

And the current vista drivers don't include this. I really need this as I use my computer to decode the audio from my HDTV and ps3, as well as decoding the AC3 and DTS on DVDs. Ever since I got vista, I have needed to dual boot to XP to get this feature, we really need this for vista. Please make it a priority. I don't want to keep having to switch between XP and Vista.

Quoted from http://forums.creative.com/creativel...message.id=694?post #3:?Pre-mixed AudioSecond, with the way this new emulation structure, all ?MME? and ?Direct Sound? applications will ultimately result in pre-mixed PCM audio that is sent to the driver in one and only one format (in terms of sample rate, bit depth and channel count), and that format is governed by a control panel setting that Microsoft would prefer be configured only by the end user. This eliminates any opportunity for hardware to accelerate sample rate conversion or to take full advantage of advanced SRC technologies such as the ones used in the X-Fi product (http://www.soundblaster.com/products/x-fi/technology/lastinfo/ssrc.asp) when using standard operating system audio.

What are the most important functions you cannot bypass in acrobat?

I would like to know what are the most important functionalities that we can not bypass in Acrobat? What makes Acrobat more worthy than other PDF reader/editor?
Personally, I notice that Acrobat (adobe products in general) takes longtime to install or uninstall. I don't find a striking feautre in Acrobat compared with other software!
Worse, Acrobat doesn't support Multiple document interface! So, I don't know why I should pays for Adobe while other free PDF viewer/reader offer this great feature!
Adobe does like Microsoft was doing long time ago in ignoring people opinions! I don't understand why adobe persists not to include MDI (Multiple Document Interface) at least as optional feature?
Thanks

The MDI issue is caused by following Windows User Interface Guidelines. Complain to Microsoft. As to what functionality is most important. The most important is creating problem free pdfs. The other things I find important are the form related capabilities, preflight, pdf optimizer and redaction.

Laptop editing with Premiere Pro CS4: what are the most important specs

Laptop Editing: What are the MOST important specs?
Hello everybody, I have been a long time lurker, but I decided to join in and share my voice.
I've been editing, for a while now, various projects of various lenghts shot on my HV20, on an IMac using Adobe Premiere Pro. Actually, I bought the CS4 Extended Production Suite last year thinking that it made sense to be able to edit, do the coloring and effects+ sound all within the same suite.
AND, it came with OnLocation, wich is, I think, a fantastic tool. I really want to be able to record and monitor my future shoots using OnLocation. I've seen how useful monitors and scopes are on set, and the idea of being able to shoot in HD and actually checking the focus on something larger than a few inches is very appealling!
So a laptop is in my future. Now, what are the most important specs?
I could buy 1) a barely used Macbook pro early 08- 17" HD led display ,4g Ram ddr2 ,nvidia 8600M GT 512 VRAM ,800Mhz BUS, 200G 7200HD
and have enough money left to buy an Apple Display 30" refurb
OR 2) a new Macbook pro 17, 4 g Ram ddr3, 512 VRAm, 4g Ram ddr3, double procsessors 9400M+9600M GT 512 VRAM, 1066 BUS, 500G 7200HD
and wait for a second display!
Plus, of course, a portable External Scratch Drive on the Express Card. Now, if that fast drive is handling the footage, could'nt I settle for a 5400HD in the laptop,, they seem much less prone to problems-clicking noise, heat-than the 7200, especially in the new unibody model. Is 800 versus 1066 BUS a terrible trade-off? In terms of secondary displays , I've heard less than lukewarm things about the new Apple 24 LED (glossy is no-no for me).
My intentions are to make documentaries and short fictions as well. I make a living as an actor so I don't need to be performing as a director/editor business wise!
I do want to explore that side of the craft, in a professional and enjoyable way though. I know that, in addition to the laptop, I will get a MacPro in a few years.
Thanks a lot for the inputs!

Successful video editing (as compared to tear your hair out video editing) requires at least two hard drives... one for all software and one for all data... some people use 3 drives, with data on one and scratch files on the 3rd drive
I'm not sure about software, but everything I've ever read in this forum says 5400 is NOT fast enough for the data drive
If you want to edit video... you have to buy the hardware that works

CPU, RAM, bus speed, system HD, external HD, graphics - basically in that order
You should think in terms of purchasing for maximum future use. In that regard the new 17" MacBookPro is the way to go. The specs are significantly better than the early '08 MacBook and you will be much happier in the long run with performance, software support and longevity.
If you really need a large display, consider a 24" Dell, HP, NEC, etc. in the $200-$300 price range to stay within your total budget. You will be pleasantly surprised how good they are.
You could start out with the 5400rpm system HD - you can replace it anytime with a 7200rpm drive if necessary for hardly any more $ than it would cost in the first place; and replacing it does NOT void your warranty. But you WILL want/need a good external FW800 or eSATA drive (for eSATA you will need an eSATA expressCard/34 however) no matter what.
One other thought, if your primary use will be with an external display, and you don't actually need eSATA capability (FW800 will do you just fine at this point), then the 15" 2.66GHz or 2.8GHz MacBookPro models will be just fine at a significantly lower cost than the 17" model.

Hi Christie!
Actually the thing is that when we are so eager about designing and start using PS then it's hard to tell that what tool we use the most and what tool we like the most to use! Besides my personnal opinion is to use Lasso tool would be my favorite

I would like to combine multiple profiles into a new computer. Which are the most important folder or files to migrate?

The user profile in my old computer somehow became corrupted and I can no longer access it to log on. Unfortunately I was not aware of the Firefox sync feature at the time. I used a new profile and had to start from scratch to save new bookmarks and extensions/plugins. I did set up Firefox sync for this new profile. Now I have a brand new computer and desire to migrate the bookmarks to this new computer, including the original bookmarks in the old computer, as well as the bookmarks in the second profile. While I have located the profiles folder for each profile in my old computer (as well as extensions and plugin folders), the content of this folder is daunting. I would like to know which are the minimal folders I should select to migrate and would it be safe to simply copy and paste over the entire folder? Please note that I have also added new bookmarks into my new computer which I would not like erased. I hope these details are not convoluted.

Firefox has two methods of bringing in bookmarks from another Firefox profile:
* Restore a backup (JSON files in the bookmarkbackups folder): this completely replaces what you have, so is not the first step
* Import from an HTML file: this is additive and will create an Imported Bookmarks folder or add them under Unsorted Bookmarks
Restore is best if you tag your bookmarks because the JSON format preserves tags. If tags are not important, then it's easier.
What I suggest is:
(1) Export your current bookmarks to the HTML format; you can reimport these later. See: [[Export Firefox bookmarks to an HTML file to back up or transfer bookmarks]]. Open the file in Firefox (it's a web page) to make sure it looks complete before proceed.
Next, get the bookmarkbackups folders from each of your old profiles that you want to restore, and look for the most-complete-looking JSON files (they will have the most recent dates and largest number of bookmarks indicated in the file name). Proceed from the smallest set to the largest, or oldest to newest; basically, restore the most important one last.
(2) Restore a backup, then export to HTML. This article has the steps for a restore: [[Restore bookmarks from backup or move them to another computer]]. Then export to HTML and check for completeness.
(3) Repeat #2 until you get to the last/most important restore. You don't need to export that one.
(4) Import the HTML files you've made throughout the process.
(5) In the Library dialog, reorganize. Firefox doesn't have a deduplicator, but you might find one or more extensions to do the job on the Add-ons site if you find a lot of overlap.
Make sense?

Photos/Fotos: One of the most important selection features the is "Star" rating. How on earth can you stop supporting this feature ???

One of the most important selection features the is "Star" rating.
How on earth can Apple stop supporting this feature ???
My iPhoto lib contains >100´000 photos. All of them are rated with stars. Dependent on the rating I distribute the photos on >20 apple devices in our family.
Many friends of mine do the same.
It´s time for a severe request to Apple to take over that feature from iPhoto to Photos. They should start to learn, that people that liked their previously released software have spent hundreds of hours to adapt their data with that software to their needs. I´m using Mac´s since 1984. Might be that I start thinking about using different systems if they continue to through away my efforts from the past...
If you dislike Apples latest moves and like this feature too you need to provide feedback to them on the following web page: www.apple.com/feedback

Remember that star ratings are not part of standard metadata.

LV 8.5 just released - the list of most important features

It seems LabVIEW 8.5 has just been released. I went trough the upgrade notes and listed the most important new features for LabVIEW power users in my ExpressionFlow blog. Read the blog post...
Tomi
Tomi Maila

I just got the email about 8.5 and took a look at the features that were added. I'm really surprised there isn't more discussion about it. These new features look great. Conditional for loops, auto-populating folders (woohoo! I've been asking for this since the first time I made a project), this new in place element structure (looks interesting), the new cross-linking resolution tools.
Maybe I'm becoming too much of a LabVIEW nerd, but I got really excited reading about this stuff. It's always good to see a software company as big as NI listening so intently to its users and giving them a release like this with a lot of incredibly useful features that have been requested.
I'm downloading it overnight (slow connection at work), I'll test it out tomorrow. I can't wait to add the synchronizing folders to all my projects.

Which views are the most important for a dba admin?

Hi I am new to oracle, and I am wondering which views are the most important to monitore.
Can someone give me a usefull link?
I know the views depend of wich kind of information you wanna retrieve.
But I think about space left on tablespaces, segment information, backup information, status of the database.....
So any help would be appreciated.For example I am wonering which views would an admin taking a new job and database would look?

I would recommend you (if not already done):
- first read the Concepts manual:
http://download-uk.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14220/toc.htm
- then the Administration Guide:
http://download-uk.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14231/toc.htm
At the end of each chapter of this document, there is a section named "Viewing Information About ..." such as http://download-uk.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14231/create.htm#sthref482
that contains the related views.
