What is the best company for simple archive and storage in the cloud.
Yes, I moved to iCloud a while ago. Yeah, I realize that time is running out for my items stored on my MobileMe iDisk!! Has anyone found a company that offers cloud archive and storage with good encryption? I am really not interested in sharing of any sort. Once I load it up, I will remove it from my computer. I have no intention on downloading these files to any other computer or iOS device. I will also store it locally on an external device as an additional backup.
Yes, I know about Box, Drop and the other popular ones, but again, I am don’t want sharing to be the selling point.
Any help much appreciated.
James,
If you DoubleClick the Pencil Tool or the Paintbrush Tool you can see the options. I believe you will wish to have both Keep Selected and Edit Selected Paths unticked for what you describe, but you can try all the possible settings and see what they do.
Help>Illustrator Help can give you some more, and you can make searches of this kind here (shown for Pencil Tool):

What is the best App for simple sketching and maybe coloring in the drawing?
Hello I am James,
I am brand new to graphic arts. I just purchased a Wacom pro pen & touch medium and my yearly plan to the CC suit of apps. I want to jump right in and get used to the Tablet by doing some simple sketches to get the hand eye thing down. What app should I use?
Thanks for your help,
JamesJames,

Whats the best software for photo editing and creating product catalogues that can be saved as PDF's
Whats the best software for photo editing and creating product catalogues that can be saved as PDF's
You are asking two different questiions:
1. What's a good photo editor? Answer to that here is probably obvious.
2. What's a good desktop publishing/page layout program for creating PDF files for production? Answer, not PSE. It's a photo editor, not a page layout program. -

my daughter is a college student. she needs to write and compile c programs on her mac for a class this semester. what is the best place for her to start to get the correct compiler etc. to use ? thanks
If you know that you will not be asked to design GUI interfaces, and the C programming course will adhere to command line compilation environments, then get the Xcode command-line developer tools, and skip the extra complication of Xcode until you absolutely need it. Apple has kicked GNU C to the curb and is rightly so, using Clang/LLVM compiler technology.
Sign up for a free Apple Developer account using your Apple ID, and then visit the Mac Dev Center, and towards the bottom of the page, you will see additional downloads. Click on the associated, all down loads link. Know your OS X version beforehand, as the command-line tool releases are tied to general operating system versions, and the most recent Xcode version. That said, there are currently two March 9, 2015 command-line tools for Xcode 6.2 — one for OS X 10.9 Mavericks, and the other for OS X Yosemite. -
With supervised ipads, what is the best way to transfer photos and videos to the PC? Wireless transfer is not an option in our circumstances.
There are only two ways of transfering things on the iPad.
- via WiFi
- via usb cable
From what I have read, you need to connect to iTunes on the supervising PC.

how can i hold a spot in a clip, let the audio continue for a moment and then resume the clip and audio together?
you want to use the retiming tool. you can select what you want to hold, then use the "Hold" command (shift-H) to create a single frame of a default duration, which you can then change to whatever length you want by dragging the retiming handle.
Here's the page in the help manual that describes the hold feature in detail:

The best practice for data archiving
Hi
My client has been using OnDemand for almost 2 years, there are around 2M records in the system(Activities), so just want to know what is the best practice of data archiving, we dont care much about the data in the 6 month ago.Hi Erik,
Archival is nothing but deletion.
Create a backup cube in BW. Copy the data from your planning cube to the backup cube, and then delete that data region from your planning cube.
Archival will definitely improve the performance of your templates, scripts, etc; since the system will now search from a smaller dataset.
Hope this helps. -
What is the best practice for full browser video to achieve the highest quality?
I'd like to get your thoughts on the best way to deliver full-browser (scale to the size of the browser window) video. I'm skilled in the creation of the content but learning to make the most out of Flash CS5 and would love to hear what you would suggest.
Most of the tutorials I can find on full browser/scalable video are for earlier versions of Flash; what is the best practice today? Best resolution/format for the video?
If there is an Adobe guide to this I'm happy to eat humble pie if someone can redirect me to it; I'm using CS5 Production Premium.
I like the full screen video effect they have on the "Sounds of pertussis" web-site; this is exactly what I'm trying to create but I'm not sure what is the best way to approach it - any hints/tips you can offer would be great?
Thanks in advance!Use the little squares over your video to mask the quality. Sounds of Pertussis is not full screen video, but rather full stage. Which is easier to work with since all the controls and other assets stay on screen. You set up your html file to allow full screen. Then bring in your video (netstream or flvPlayback component) and scale that to the full size of your stage (since in this case it's basically the background) . I made a quickie demo here. (The video is from a cheapo SD consumer camera, so pretty poor quality to start.)
In AS3 is would look something like
import flash.display.Loader;
import flash.net.URLRequest;
import flash.display.Bitmap;
import flash.display.BitmapData;
import flash.ui.Mouse;
import flash.events.Event;
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
import flash.display.StageDisplayState;
stage.align = StageAlign.TOP_LEFT;
stage.scaleMode = StageScaleMode.NO_SCALE;
// determine current stage size
var sw:int = int(stage.stageWidth);
var sh:int = int(stage.stageHeight);
// load video
var nc:NetConnection = new NetConnection();
nc.connect(null);
var ns:NetStream = new NetStream(nc);
var vid:Video = new Video(656, 480); // size off video
this.addChildAt(vid, 0);
vid.attachNetStream(ns);
//path to your video_file
ns.play("content/GS.f4v");
var netClient:Object = new Object();
ns.client = netClient;
// add listener for resizing of the stage so we can scale our assets
stage.addEventListener(Event.RESIZE, resizeHandler);
stage.dispatchEvent(new Event(Event.RESIZE));
function resizeHandler(e:Event = null):void
// determine current stage size
var sw:int = stage.stageWidth;
var sh:int = stage.stageHeight;
// scale video size depending on stage size
vid.width = sw;
vid.height = sh;
// Don't scale video smaller than certain size
if (vid.height < 480)
vid.height = 480;
if (vid.width < 656)
vid.width = 656;
// choose the smaller scale property (x or y) and match the other to it so the size is proportional;
(vid.scaleX > vid.scaleY) ? vid.scaleY = vid.scaleX : vid.scaleX = vid.scaleY;
// add event listener for full screen button
fullScreenStage_mc.buttonMode = true;
fullScreenStage_mc.mouseChildren = false;
fullScreenStage_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, goFullStage, false, 0, true);
function goFullStage(event:MouseEvent):void
//vid.fullScreenTakeOver = false; // keeps flvPlayer component from becoming full screen if you use it instead
if (stage.displayState == StageDisplayState.NORMAL)
stage.displayState=StageDisplayState.FULL_SCREEN;
else
stage.displayState=StageDisplayState.NORMAL; -
What is the best media for long-term video storage?
I will be loading several MiniDV tapes into my Mac and want to store the video long-term (in a safe-deposit box). These are going to be home movies with some digital photos or scans as well.
I am curious what folks believe is the best medium for this. I am considering a Passport-style HD like those from LaCie, Western Digital and others. Has anyone had good luck with these? Or am I on the wrong track?
Thank you in advance for your opinions,
jfI considered getting one of the DVD recorder products from Sony (they say you can plug right into the camera, hit a button and get a DVD copy of the footage in real time)
You understand that a DVD recorder will convert and seriously compress the material in the transcode from DV to mpeg2?
DVDs like this are not a storage system if you are looking to keep original material in a) as close to original quality as possible and b) in an editable format.
40 1 hour DV tapes is just over 500 GB when captured. Get 2 1 TB drives and make two copies of the material. Use one for editing on-line and put the other on a shelf (not in your house). Just be sure to get it back and spin it up every month or so.
The tapes need to be seriously secured. If the safety deposit box is too small, look into a fireproof home vault. 40 tapes do not take up that much space. Just store it in a cool and not humid location.

What is the best format for ripping CD's to get the best quality?
I'm sure this has been asked before but I wanted to see what was the latest thinking. Any ideas of the additional Hard Drive usage? Thanks

My questions are: What are the best settings for ripping cd's in the AAC format?
It is a matter of opinion, but I suggest 256 kb/s, CBR, and leave all other settings on automatic.
Will I be able to burn cd mixes with the tracks I import into itunes after importing using the AAC format?
Yes. Just put them in a playlist and burn.
Does the AAC format have VBR like the MP3 format?
Yes. You will see it as an option in the Import Settings.
Is there other ripping software such as dbPoweramp and Exact Audio Copy that does a better job ripping cd's in the AAC format?
EAC does a better job of correcting errors in damaged CDs, but for normal CDs iTunes does a fine job of ripping to AAC. -
What is the best way for my partner and I to share our work across computers?
What is the best way for my business partner and I to share our work (projects, libraries, images) across computers without emailing items? Is there creative cloud storage place we can share?
Can't I just purchase the 200 GB storage, throw our photo library in it, share it with her, and have both of our new and future pics dumped into it? If so, how do I do that?
The iCloud Photo Library cannot be shared between users, unless you are using the same AppleID.
You can share selected photos with shared albums: iCloud: iCloud Photo Sharing FAQ
Or create a Photos library on an external drive, that you both can access, as described here for iPhoto: iPhoto: Sharing libraries among multiple users -
What is the best app for address labels and mail merge?
What is the best app for address labels, mail merge and keeping track of customers information?
Whilst this will work, it's intended for merging information (e.g. producing personally-addressed letters to a list of people).
If you simply want address labels, open Contacts and then choose which contacts you want (either a group or hold down Cmd and click on those you want - if they're together, click on the first and use Shift when you click on the last). No need to select any if you want all.
Then press Cmd-P and click on Show Details (at the bottom). Choose Labels (at the right hand side) and choose the size labels you have. You can even adjust the font and colour if you wish. -
What are the best practices for Database management and performance tuning?
Hello,
I want to ensure that I am using the best practices for managing and maintaining our Database.
Is there any documentation out there that outlines how to maintain and ensure top performance out of our database?
Thank you!
John SeftonI appreciate the responses, however this is not the information I am looking for.
I am specificaly looking for best practices invloving the managment and performance tuning.
Example: are their tools that I can install that will monitor the size and response time of the database and alert me if there is degradation in performance?
Are there specific periodic activities I should be doing to garuntee that my database will continue to function that way it is supposed to?
Or is this a fire and forget solution that does not need this attention? -
Anyone have any idea which is the best application for taking notes and essay writting?
im starting my first year of university and i was wondering what would the best application for taking notes on be? and also whats the easiest, most reliable and effective way to transfer documents off the ipad? Any thoughts on printing aswell?
will be appreciating all the help i can get!You're going to get as many answers to that question as there are people to answer it. You don't state if you want to take handwritten notes or if you will be typing. For handwritten notes, I really like Noteshelf. It has lots of export options, my favorite being to Evernote (which you might want to look into as well for storage). For typing notes, I'd go with Pages, Documents to Go or QuickOffice. For working with PDFs, I like PDF Expert.
I've recently heard good things about Note Anytime. It is free for a limited time, so it'st probably worth downloading to try out.
