What is the best way to setup premiere sequence for export when mixing 24fps and 23.976fps for final

What is the best way to setup a premiere sequence for export when mixing 24fps (CG) and 23.976fps (live action) for final output at 23.976 (vimeo and such).
Right now my sequence is at 24fps, and when I export to 23.976, my dialogues seem to shift.
Should I set my sequence at 23.976fps instead of 24fps?
Thanks in advance for the help, and sincere apologies if this is a noob question.
David

That makes it easy. Remove the CGs from the project. Go to Edit>Preferences>Media... and set the Indeterminate Media Timebase to 23.976. Then when you import the image sequence, PP will assign it the correct frame rate.
Edit in a 23.976 sequence.

What is an easy way to get to my app store on my computer? I can never just go to it and usually end up there by pure luck.

what is an easy way to get to my "app" store on my computer? I usually just stumble upon it my chance.

If you mean the App Store for your iOS devices, that is in iTunes. If you are running iTunes 12, then you would select the App icon in the toolbar, then select Store:

What's an easy way to determine what the user typed is a date object?

What's an easy way to determine what the user typed is a date
object?
Thanks!

Thanks for trying. Sorry for not being clear. but I figured
it out.
the user can type in a date, or a name to search. The format
they type in date has to be in mm/dd/yyyy.
I was able to use:
if (new Date(textEntered).toString()=="Invalid Date") {
// not a date entered
else {
// a date is entered
To do what I need to do.
Thanks.

What is the easiest way to move my iPhoto library from my macbook to my new mac pro?

What is the easiest way to move my iPhoto library from my macbook to my new mac pro?

Surprisingly easy! Go into the Finder, then into the Photos Library. In there, there will be a file called your iPhoto Library. It holds all your photos, essentially a special type of folder. Using an external hard drive transfer it to the same location on your new Mac. Now, when you boot iPhoto on the new Mac, it will recognise it and you'll see all your photos instantly!
There's a really good video on it here...

What is the easier way to edit a captured slide?

I have created a demonstration animation and there are several slides that need a little graphics editing.
So far, I have not found a way to automate the process of editing slides.
The only method I can determine is by selecting "Copy Background", then opening a graphics editor, pasting to a new window, edit accordingly, save the edited graphic background, import into the slide.
Isn't there anyway to edit inline?.. meaning, the background is automatically sent to your choosen graphics editor, you edit the graphic, click save/exit, and the graphics background is automatically updated. That is how Captivate 4's competitors do it.

Hi Shawn
It really depends on what exactly you need to do. For example, if all you want is an easy way to blot out some words, use a Highlight Box object at zero percent transparency. Then merge it into the background. Or maybe you need an image added in. Add the image separately and merge it.
Last week we needed to render an option button as unselected. In that case I just right-clicked and opened in Microsoft Paint. Duplicated another and overlaid the errant one. Closed and saved. Total update time from start to finish was less than two minutes.
Cheers... Rick

What is the "easy" way to get to 3.1.2?

I've "loved" the Oracle database for many years, and is thrilled with Apex. I no longer work as a DBA, but tries to keep my technical stuff close.
I have an Apex 2.1 installation on an 10g database on Ubuntu 8.10 server. I did the lazy install then, and installed via aptitude (more or less automated install).
I would like to install 3.1.2, but must admit I almost lost courage when I read the requirements.
My Oracle install right now can be discarded, so I wanted to ask: what is the easiest way for me to get 3.1.2 installed on Ubuntu?
Install the latest version of 11g? Run a magic script, that automates all that Oracle exhaustively describes?
Thanks in advance
Yours
/Kim
End note/rant: given that oracle can describe everything in such details, why oh why, not just build an installer around it?! the chances of errors are multitudes greater with all these nitty gritty commands. My SQL Server DBAs routinely updates, installs and patches SQL Server without much of a hassle. Oracle DBAs gets ticks thinking of the testing needed...

Just to be clear, you're probably running Oracle Express Edition, or "XE" based on the fact that you installed it via aptitude and it has APEX 2.1 pre-installed. It may say 10g when you login, but please refer to it as XE in the forums so people know what db they're dealing with.
There is no "easy" way to magically install 3.1.2. You have to follow the install guide to the letter now matter what path you take. Even if you install 11.1, it only has APEX 3.0 pre-installed. Even though I really prefer 11 to 10, I think your best off sticking with XE, especially since there are no licensing issues. For what it's worth, I've suggested that APEX needs a GUI installer (such as Oracle Universal Installer) for several years now since the install / upgrade process can be a bit daunting. Until the community demands it, I don't think it's going to happen, so please, speak up if you think the install process is too hard.

What is an easy way to log and share lists (grocery, mileage) with my wife?

My wife and I have all the Apple devices and would like an easy way to share lists; specifically, a grocery list and a mileage list. The latter is for whenever each of us drives our personal vehicle for business use.
If it was just me, I can create a Numbers spreadsheet and save it to the Cloud. Then, it's accessible from all my Apple devices. But she and I need to be able to hit the same documents.
I've seen some apps in the iOS AppStore, but don't need all those bells and whistles. Can't I just grant her access to my Numbers document in my cloud or something?
Thanks for any advice.

Hi rcook,
If you are both on the same iCloud account, then by far the easiest way to share (and update) notes is to use the Notes app. I use it for all of my "to do" and "grocery lists" among other things. I can updae it on my Mac, and with I go to the store - it is there waiting for me on my iPhone! No syncing, required, If is check somethng off, or delete it, then if my husband is looking at/using the same list, he knows that itm is taken care of.
Not sure if this fits your needs, but it works great for us!
Cheers,
GB

DO NOT delete files in your Home Folder -> Library tree as there are things like your iPhone backups, your email messages, your application preferences, etc...
DO NOT delete files outside your home folder, as you may end up deleting something essential to Mac OS X, and turn your Mac into an expensive “Door Stop”.
I will point out that you will find some very large files in private -> var -> vm (these are the Mac OS X virtual memory paging files (swapfiles) and where Mac OS X stores the copy of RAM when your Mac is put to sleep). The swapfiles get deleted on reboot, and the sleep image is just going to be created again when you put your Mac to sleep.
If you think you have found something to delete outside your home folder, it would be best to ask first before deleting. There are many examples of people deleting files outside their home folder, or renaming files, or changing the ownership or permissions of files, and then their Mac stops running. Do not be one of those people. Ask first.

What's the best way to setup a media server/central storage for all of my?

I was wondering what the best way to achieve a central media server for all my iTunes content + iPhoto's, calendar syncing and contact sharing is? This is what I currently have:
iMac 20" Aluminum + External HD Backup (kids)
Macbook Black (wife)
Macbook Pro 15" (me)
Airport Extreme 802.11n (obvious)
TimeCapsule 1TB (wifi backup for wife/me)
I would like to replace my PC in my office with a brand new Mac Pro Nehalem 8-Core, 8GB Ram, and 4TB, and replace my PC laptop in my living room attached to my tv, with an Apple TV.
I want to centralize all our Photos from vacations, etc. Music, videos, movies, that are currently split up over wife's macbook, kids imac and my macbook pro onto my soon to be purchased Mac Pro.
I want to be able to stream everything from my living room via Apple TV for when guests come over, dinner parties, etc. (plus I love apple and it keeps things clean)
I'm currently using MobileMe to sync all of our Calendars and Contacts with my main account, which is great, but MobileMe doesn't sync to family members accounts =
What would I need to do to centralize all this onto my future Mac Pro so that everyone has access all the time when they are home and the key here is, modify/update/change from their machines and sync it back/update it on the Mac Pro.
Also, I'm hoping Snow Leopard has some changes to iTunes to make this a little more possible, since we're right around the corner from this release. I don't really want to spend an additional $900+ on Snow Leopard Server to have to achieve these results, but if it makes it easier, and does the job, then I guess I might. This is all speculation though, since it's not out yet. I'd like to get this all sorted and setup within the next month.
I was considering a Drobo, they say they can throw up iTunes Server but, I appreciate everyone for reading this, and taking the time to respond!
Thanks!

I'm in the process of setting up a smaller (and cheaper) but somewhat similar setup to what you want to do, so maybe one example might help point you in the right direction. My needs consist of a centralized location for data storage, which will include iPhoto libraries (I keep two separate ones), iTunes (which I also want served to the home theater system), something other than my laptop to play internet videos and downloaded content on my TV, all with ideally the lowest cost and energy use possible.
My solution was the new Mini with a FW800 external drive as the server/media hub and Airport gigabit as the network hub (it also handles the backup drive).
FW800 is fast enough to saturate a gigabit ethernet link, so I don't consider that much of a bottleneck. The Mini then has iTunes running at all times with its centralized library on it; it is hooked to the home theater via HDMI-DVI video and optical audio, so it can play music and also handle videos when desired; Front Row with the Apple remote is close enough to an AppleTV that I think it handles that well, and it's more full-featured than an AppleTV. It can further be used to display photos/slideshows/whatever on the TV for guests or such, or to surf from the couch with a wireless mouse/keyboard. You can also toss in an EyeTV for $150 and use that as a DVR if you feel like it.
When I want to edit photos or such on my desktop, the gigabit link is fast enough that I can run iPhoto without noticing any significant slowdown. Its also usable over wireless, though I have a dangling extra network cable to plug into a laptop for full gigabit speed if need be. iTunes, of course, shares its library, which can be played from any of the computers in the house if so desired (iPhoto can do that too if you just want to display).
If I REALLY wanted top speed (though I've even done video editing in iMovie via ethernet without issue), I could use a third party synch app (I like Sync) to mirror any of the content from the mini server to a local drive; this works fine with anything but multi-way synching, such as address books being modified in different locations. I'd probably try to set up one of those Mobile Me clone systems or use a 3rd party app if I needed to do that.
Again, maybe this isn't powerful enough or "synched" enough in terms of local storage for your taste, but the advantage is that a Mini uses a minute fraction of the power of a Mac Pro, so you're saving a lot on electricity if the computer will be powered up at all times as a server, and it's also a lot more full-featured as a home theater media hub than an AppleTV. And, heck, the thing is about as well equipped as my old top-of-the-line G5 tower for a 5th the cost and 1/15th the power and noise.
