What CD installer to use when restoring mbp?

hi,
I want to restore my mbp but here is my problem:
I bought my mbp before the release of the snow leopard os. For after several months, i bought the SL OS and upgraded my computer.
now i want to restore it. Should I use the original CD OS installer that came with my mac THEN upgrade it to SL or can't i just use directly the SL OS cd to restore it?
thank you

You can use the Snow Leopard installer if you don't need any portion of iLife except iTunes, or you don't need the Microsoft Office or iWork trial that may have come with the machine.
Otherwise you'll want to use the original installer discs first, or a newer version of iLife than your copy of Snow Leopard.
Before you restore your machine, why are you doing this? Usually most system problems can be resolved by something much less drastic than a restore.
See my backup FAQ*: http://www.macmaps.com/backup.html before doing anything.

What does error 1015 mean when restoring my Iphone 3G?

As easily found by googling:
Errors related to downgrading iOS
The required resource cannot be found: This alert message occurs when your device has a newer version of iOS than what is available in iTunes. When troubleshooting a device that presents this alert message, go to Settings > General > About and check the version of iOS on the device. If it is newer than the latest released iOS version, the device may have a prerelease developer version of iOS installed. Installing an older version of iOS over a newer version is not supported.
Error 1015: This error is typically caused by attempts to downgrade the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch's software. This can occur when you attempt to restore using an older .ipsw file. Downgrading to a previous version is not supported. To resolve this issue, attempt to restore with the latest iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch software available from Apple. This error can also occur when an unauthorized modification of the iOS has occurred and you are now trying to restore to an authorized, default state.
In summary: your phone is likely jailbroken. If so, there is no more support available on these forums.

How can I change (or select) what is being being used when I share, as the file cover. When I Share lets say "Master File" i want to select a frame that is used as the file cover. So when its on my desktop I see this image as the file icon.

I don't think Finder does this (I've tried).
iTunes does though. Where you can set artwork or the "poster frame"...
This may not be what you want but if it helps, I know 2 ways do this is
Open the video in QuicktimePlayer7 | View | Set Poster Frame (even then, you might need to save it as .mov (ie in a 'mov container').
Drag the file into iTunes and set the artwork (as in http://www.dummies.com/how-to/content/adding-album-cover-art-or-images-in-itunes .html)
From there, iTunes will use that frame as the "poster frame" ie the photo/frame that shows when you browse your videos. Which is what you want, but limited to iTunes.
When I do either of these above, the frame I set does not show when exploring files in "Finder" (or in the other Explorer tool I use called "Pathfinder").
So it maybe, that exactly what you want, is not possible.

I partitioned my Mac Book so I could have windows and now i don't know how to switch back it also doesn't tell me what I want to use when I reboot it. How do I switch back to OS X?

What port numbers are used when creating temporary queues

Using the following code as an example, what port(s) are used when creating temporary queues? Is it a range of ports? Is it random? And is it configurable? If you have any insight on this, please let me know. Thanks.
QueueConnection con = connectionFactory.createQueueConnection();
QueueSession session = con.createQueueSession(true, Session.AUTO_ACKNOWLEDGE);
TemporaryQueue replyQueue = session.createTemporaryQueue();

The only ports I know about are the defaults ports:
JMS 7676
IIOP 3700
Are these the only ports that are used, even for temporary queues?

How to tell what recovery point was used for restore

Is there a way to determine what recovery point was used for a restore after the restore was started.

The question comes from the experience of having a package installed but not being able to build it from the same PKGBUILD (due to nontrivial issues). The package must have been built successfully by *a* build system, so ideally one would want to replicate that build. The relevant differences I could think of are the compiler flags and to a lesser extent the hardware build platform.
You should describe these supposedly non-trivial issues. I've never experienced what you describe in my years using Arch, nor have I ever heard it suggested that the famously vanilla Arch packages are built using some sort of unconventional compiler flags. I have heard multiple developers say using highly modified CPU optimizations and modified linking and such are mostly pointless, however. So I'd bet a week's pay that the build system uses vanilla GCC with the default settings. Why would the thing that actually builds Arch Linux be the one part of the Arch ecosystem that doesn't abide by the Arch standards? Why would only some packages have library linking problems and such when all packages are built on the same machine against the same library versions---and thus the conditions resulting in a failed build would be identical to those in a successful build? I could be wrong, but I think you're on the wrong track. The quickest way to find out is to describe what the real problem is, not what you imagine the solution to be.

What hardware is in use when i target disk on the computer that is the target?

Well, i have 2 macs, a 24" Imac and a C2D Mac Mini 1.83. I´m having some issues on my macmini and i want to troubeshoot it. But to do that i need to know what exacly hardware is in use when the Macmini is on target disk mode and im using it trhu the Imac. Also the other way around the Imac conected on MacMini. Thanks

In there doesnt say for exemple, that the memory or the processor, video card of what machine will be used for exemple. This is te kinda of information i need.
Lets say: The Macmini is on target, when i open prograns, say a game, will the macmini process it or the Imac? The memory that will be used, will it be from tha macmini or the Imac.
if its unkown, or a mixture of both, i cant use target to isolate the problem(s)
Many Thanks
My understanding is that the Target machine... in your example the Mac mini... behaves like any external hard drive...
Thus the processing will be done by the iMac...
In other words... Think of the Target as an External Drive...
Cheers,

What exception should I use when commit work fails ?

hi all:
I create a class with methods to insert , modify and delete trasaction data,
when commit work fails, I want to throw an exception, what exception should I use
for this case?

In general, you should do your commit using CALL FUNCTION IN UPDATE TASK. As this runs in a different process, you will never be able to catch an exception in your main task, even if you throw one in the Open SQL code. What you should do is carefully validate your data before posting it to the database, so that commit cannot fail for data integrity reasons. If it fails for technical reasons (DB down etc.) there is nothing that your code could do about it anyway, so in this case even getting an exception would be no use. What exactly is it you are trying to accomplish?

What PDF settings are used when creating DPS articles?

When you create a PDF file using Acrobat Distiller or InDesign you can modify settings such as font subsets, image down-sampling and compression which will have an impact on the final file size. Does anyone know what settings are used when articles are rendered in PDF format in DPS and can the settings be modified? Specifically, what type of compression is applied to images? If I were to place two images on a page, a png and a jpg with medium quality, would they be embedded in the PDF as is or re-compressed in another format and/or level of quality?

Thanks for your help.
So images placed in an InDesign retain their original file format and are unzipped when the article is loaded in the app.
I'm assuming that if compression is applied to the original image files it can have an impact on performance. If you were to use jpeg files in a document they would need to be unzipped and decompressed. I've read other forum posts that suggest the iOS jpeg decompression engine is too slow to present a fluid user experience in a DPS app. The combined processing time of unzipping and decompressing jpegs files may steer me towards the png format.

What Rendering intent is used when exporting with a different color space?

Hi,
I would be ever so grateful if any one can tell me what rendering intent is used by LR4 when exporting using a custom colour space as there is not an option as there is with the print module.
Thanks.

Actually, an RGB color space to RGB colorspace is always only Relative Colorimetric...and adding Perceptual would only work with certain V4 ICC color spaces (you can find perceptual V4 color spaces for sRGB and ProPhoto I think but I'm not sure they would work in Lightroom anyway).
When using an RGB print output profile you can select either Perceptual or Relative and have the intents actually applied.
True.
The case of interest to me is when I have to print a lot of files using a third-party profile and maintain the original filename so it appears on the back. That is why I made the request more than a year ago.
The problem with the Print module is that it clobbers the filename but does allow 2 choices for the rendering intent. Having to deal with weird filenames creates a mess when matching, say, 50 prints with custom notecards.

What light bulb to use when processing photos in Photoshop

The recommended temperature is 5600k Daylight balanced, now I'm curious - does it matter what kind of "brand" of lightbulb to use when lighting my room when working at night in processing photographs?
I am new at this and so far I have made sure my monitor is calibrated. I have also read on these forums that the brightness of a monitor has to match the brightness in the room. It sounds quite complex because I'm not sure when is "right". I can eyeball something but how do you know it is "correct" ?
This is very important for me because I want other people to view my work the way it shows up on my monitor but so far these are the only concerns I have. I have made sure to manage the color through photoshop (Adobe 1998) and when saving for web (sRGB) but so far the above questions are my biggest concerns. If a specific lightbulb matters (or any Daylight balanced will do?) and how to balance the room light with monitor brightness? I figure when the monitor is calibrated (default settings seem to be really correct when I go through the whizard) I don't need to adjust anything on the monitor, just the brightness of the light?
lastly, where does the light have to be? Behind monitor, or behind me. I heard that obvious thing is you don't want a glare created by light behind you...
Can anyone please help me out?

I find having diffuse light above and off to the side is what I prefer - and not too bright - though often I process images at night with no light on whatsoever. I have a shaded lamp that mostly lets the light out the top, where it bounces off the ceiling and makes the room lighting quite soft.
If you have daylight lighting coming in during the day (e.g., through windows as I do), for consistency's sake it might be good to try to match it (e.g., with something like the CREE LED bulbs Home Depot sells, specifically the Daylight model). Of course, if you put it in a shaded lamp it can end up a different color. For a long while I had CFL bulbs in the lamps in my office (where I edit) and the difference between my perceptions of things while editing actually WERE night and day, because the fluorescent light color is just nasty.
A bit off topic, but... I'm becoming a big fan of these new CREE LED bulbs. I took a photo of our kitchen lit by these (Daylight models) with daylight coming in a window in the photo, and the light color from outside and in matched surprisingly well - "Daylight" is actually a pretty accurate term. Indoor photos with windows usually show interior lighting looking a deep orange by comparison to overly bluish outdoor light.

What screen do you use, with your MBP?

Hiya,
im lookin for more screen real estate. what do you guys use? im kind of eyen' the Acds...???
Thanks.

I have been using a 23-inch Apple Cinema Display for two years now, and I have loved every minute of it!
I have never had any problems at all, and I have had the monitor running solid for those two years.
Before my Apple Cinema Display, I had tried displays from Dell and Samsung, both of which had to be returned due to defects.
In the studio, I connect my MacBook Pro to a Sharp Aquos TV, which has always performed exceptionally well too.
Good luck!

What user should be used when importing a Power Pivot model into SSAS tabular?

I created a Power Pivot model using my own userid.
In SSDT I can import that model but it saves the model in my own My Documents folder. In SSMS, other users can browse the data in that model.
If I tell SSDT to save the model in the Public user's My Documents, the model is not visible in SSMS for anyone to see.
If a colleague imports the model, it can be seen in SSMS but there is no data when it is browsed.
There seems to be a tie up with the user id I used when the model was first created. Is it possible to break that link, or should we have a user id specifically for creating and deploying Power BI models via SSAS tabular?
