What is the best option

Hi,
I am looking for a wireless hard drive to use with Windows Vista that;
1. I can access wirelessly when at home, and
2. I can also access over the tinternet when away from home.
Is the Time Capsule the only option and the best option?
Thanks

I have a MacBook and yes it is incredibly faster than my old powerbook. However I am thinking of upgrading to a MacBook Pro primarily for the higher internal RAM capability, as well as the faster processor.
What I find is that when I am running windows in a parallels environment and also running Mac concurrently, I have a problem with system freezes. If you have a lot of memory hog programs going on at the same time in both Mac and Windows, it is difficult to allocate the RAM satisfactorily. If you allocate it to maximize your Mac OS performance you can wind up with virtual memory issues and windows programs freezing on you and becoming non responsive. If you allocate to maximize your Windows use it slows down your Mac performance.
If you plan to run programs concurrently that take up a lot of RAM, for the little bit of extra money you may be much happier going with a MBP with 4 GB RAM. The limit on the MB is 2 GB. I wish I had bought a MBPro so that I would not be in a situation of outgrowing and upgrading my computer this soon.

I have Logic Pro 8.0.2 and would like to upgrade. I'm running OS Lion on a 2010 MacB Pro. What is the best option? Logic Pro 9 App or Logic Studio? Can't find upgrade price. Or should I just stay with Logic 8?

Same here, I have Logic Studio 8 and wouldn't mind staying with that version, except that the installer won't run on my new Macbook Pro as PowerPC apps are no longer supported. That's the message I get in any case.
I use to run Logic on a 2006 Macbook Pro.
I guess that makes me a very unhappy Apple user! I've been using Logic from the Emagic days, bought every upgrade only to see Apple kill what used to be one of the best Pro Audio application. Imagine if they had done the same to Photoshop, there would be a lot of unhappy designers out there
Paying the full price for years to slowly see your daily app go down in price & efficiency until it's given away at $199 for semi pro users. Well, at least ProTools is stil alive & kicking so I guess that's the way forward now.

What is the best option for tethering my IPhone 4s with my iPad? (the iPad is wifi only)

What is the best option for tethering my IPhone 4s with my iPad? (the iPad is wifi only)

#1. Understand that if you switch carriers, you can NOT take your existing iPhone with you. It won't work. You will need to purchase a new one.
#2. Your only choices are Sprint and Verizon. Decide who has the better coverage in your area. Keep in mind that you will NOT be able to get simultaneous voice and 3G data on either of these, as their CDMA networks do not support it. The U.S. T-Mobile network is not supported and is not fully compatible with the iPhone as it operates on a rarely used frequency compared to the rest of the world.
#3. What in the world are "niners"? Do you mean you want to be able to keep your existing "phone numbers"? If so, that should be no problem. Most numbers in the US are now portable.
#4. Consider WHY you want to switch. If the issue is really price, you're not going to see much of a difference. A few dollars a month at best for comparable voice and data plans.

What is the best option to get a wireless connection please?

Hi, I have a 1.6 GHz G5 with Tiger (soon to install Leopard).
I currently have broadband through an ethernet cable but I want to set up wireless. My understanding so far is that I need either an airport card or an external device such as airport express (in the system profiler it says no info found under AirPort card).
Can someone please tell me if I am correct and if so, what is the best option to buy for my G5 model?
Thanks very much
Adam

BD, I declare an interest!
Look here if you would: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4229088?tstart=60
I like the look of the one in your third link, but the only similar one I can find in the UK is this:

but it comes with a 3 inch CD which is utterly useless to me!
If you can confirm that the MXP2802GU2 will work for me I will buy that!

What is the best option today for an external DVD Drive self powered

I am planning to remove the internal DVD-ROM and use the MCE OptiBay to install a second SSD in RAID 0 configuration, what is the best option today for an external DV-ROM, ideally self powered via USB or Firewire ?, thanks

can't say I agree with the RAID 0, if that messes up or one drive dies, you lose it all. Not to mention, The SSDs made like that aren't made for RAIDs...
The ones that can are really expensive, high end stuff.

I was told that it takes about 10 years to outdate a MAC desktop, which I think is the case, but I have ran out of storage. What is the best option?

I was told that it takes about 10 years to outdate a MAC desktop, which I think is the case, but I have ran out of storage. What is the best option?

There is no one best for everyong.
For most though: a dedicated boot drive. $105 Samsung 840 SSD is best in that category
WD Black in 1 to 4TB (1-4 drives) for up to 16TB of storage.
Sonnet Tempo Pro PCIe SSD card to boot from and boost SSD speed, as well as free up your drive bays for the other drives.
2-4 backup sets. One or two used for TimeMachine. Two or three clones of your system. Even clone your critical data.
And then there is external storage of unlimited size, capacity and expansion.
Upgrade your system drive every year or two and move the current drive to use as a backup set.

I lost my I phone 5 2 months ago what's the best option to block them

I don't think it would really matter at this point. A lot can happen in 2 months. Did you report this loss to your carrier? If the carrier supports blacklisting phones, they probably did that. If they don't, there isn't much you can do.

What is the best option for 'update.... set' in owb?

Hello.
I have been reading on a number of ways to implement following query in OWB:
update TABLE A
set Value F = (select Value B
from table B
where (nvl(trim(A.valueC),trim(A.valueD) = trim(B.ValueF)
and substr(A.valueG,1,2) = trim(B.valueH))
or ( nvl(trim(A.valueC),trim(A.valueD)) is null
and trim(B.valueF) is null
and substr(A.valueG,1,2) = trim(B.ValueH)
The table A and table B do not have a relationship.
Key lookup - some of you recommend not to use it as it is not very good.
Set Operator or Joiner? What would be better?
I created a function for this query, but i cannot use it in the map because i get this error:
API8003:coonection target attribute group is already conncted to an incompatable data source. Use a Joiner or Set operator to join the upstream data first before conncting it into this operator.
What would be the best way to do it? how i can pass the parameters from two different tables into my function? What feature of OWB would be the best option i cannot use for this?
Or my best bit to re-create it as a procedure and run it that way?
Thank you very much for your help
Kind Regards
Vix

Hopefully this is helpful and it makes sense written out.
First, I'm not sure if there are some parenthesis missing in your update statement because I can't tell for sure whether the statements separated by the 'or' should be considered separately [ as in "(a = b and a=c) or (c = d)" vs "a = b and a = c or c = d" ] or if the logic is exactly as written. My suggestion is based on the idea that the query is exactly as written -- if parenthesis were missing, insert them as appropriate.
My suggestion is to use a join. Even though you say A and B don't have a relationship, they sort of do based on the update statement.
I would suggest that you start with source A and insert an expression operator. You'll send in ValueC, ValueD, ValueG. You create three outputs:
BValueF = nvl(trim(A.valueC),trim(A.valueD))
BValueH = substr(A.valueG,1,2)
NullValue = nvl(trim(A.valueC),trim(A.valueD))
Then add source table B and insert another expression operator. You'll send in ValueF and ValueH. You create two outputs:
TValueF = trim(B.valueF)
TValueH = trim(B.valueH)
Then insert a join operator. For ingrp1, you'll drag over whatever can uniquely identify A and the three outputs from the expression. For ingrp2, drag over ValueB and the two outputs from the expression.
Then your join condition will be
BValueF = TValueF
and BValueH = TValueH
or NullValue is null
and TValueF is null
and BValueH = TValueH
Then add your target table A, set it to update on the unique key. Drag the unique key from the joiner to the unique key on A, and drag ValueB to A's ValueF.
Hopefully this makes sense written out. I didn't test this, but it looks logically correct on paper.
Good luck,
Heather

What is the best option for storing my iphoto library on the cloud?

I was curious as to what people are doing (other than backing up to external HD) for backing up the iphoto library? Anyone using any cloud solution out there for storage? What are some of the best options? I have around 30,000 photos in my iphoto library.

There is no good solution for storing the Library in the Cloud. The amount of data involved means that uploading or downloading is very, very slow. We do see posts on here from people trying to restore from a back up to the Cloud wondering if it's possible to speed up the download currently estimated in days. Running a Library from the cloud is just painfully slow - people have tried it and that is the consensus.
However, as part of a comprehensive back up plan there is a lot to be said for backing up your Photos to the cloud. Not as good as backing up the whole Library, but as a "last line" you at least have your photos. There are many options: Flickr, Picasa, SmugMug etc. However, check the terms of your account carefully. While most sites have free uploading, you will often find that these uploads are limited in terms of the file size or the bandwidth you can use per month. For access that allows you to upload full size pics with no restrictions you may need to pay.

I use Aperture on my Mac and have approx 450Gigs of raw files for my photos and growing. I'm running short on space and system is starting to slow down. What are the best ooptions to improve performance and increase space space.?

important to note that what you are talking about is not a backup
It is simple to ahve your iPhoto library on an external drive -
Moving the iPhoto library is safe and simple - quit iPhoto and drag the iPhoto library intact as a single entity to the external drive - depress the option key and launch iPhoto using the "select library" option to point to the new location on the external drive - fully test it and then trash the old library on the internal drive (test one more time prior to emptying the trash)
And be sure that the External drive is formatted Mac OS extended (journaled) (iPhoto does not work with drives with other formats) and that it is always available prior to launching iPhoto
And backup soon and often - having your iPhoto library on an external drive is not a backup and if you are using Time Machine you need to check and be sure that TM is backing up your external drive
And you can have multiple i{Photo libraries - one can be on your internal drive and other on an external drive -- iPhoto Library Manager - http://www.fatcatsoftware.com/iplm/ - is a very helpful tool for managing multiple libraries

What is the best option to edit the PO delivery address for third party

Dear Community members,
first of all have some sunny greetings from Germany and thanks for my last question.
Standard SAP third party process - Create SO - Purchase requisition - Create purchase Order.
In the purchase order the ship to address from SO is shown greyed what is standard.
So now our user requests to be able to enter another address because e.g. :The customers ship to address is in Berlin, but the vendor delivers to Hamburg. From there we take over the delivery and bringing it to the end customer address. So some vendors require to see the Hamburg ship to address instead of the one in Berlin.
So our customer service people print the PO out and edit it manually atm.
So now I am asking you if you had simililar issue and what is the best way to solve it. We could use some new partner function and assign it to the relevant customer and choose that one in the PO. Maybe it is also possible to change the address into the edit mode and overwrite the address in the PO?
Thanks for your help
Goran

It will not be possible to edit the delivery address in the PO in standard. You will need to change the ship-to in the Sales order.
Refer to this note Point 8: 550192 - FAQ: Changing third-party and individual PO items

What is the best option for generating .wmv video working on Mac?

I am working on a mac. I need to generate my output in .wmv. I am exporting as .mov then using MacX converter to convert to .wmv. The quality degrades too much. What is the best way to generate .wmv?
Thanks in advance.

YOur statement is way too generic and vague. You have not provided any exact settings, version info, details about the footage etc. That asude WMV is a compressed format and wil always degrade.

What is the best option to upgrade oracle 9i to 10g with standby?

I have a production DB with standby on 9.2.0.6. We plan to upgrade it to 10.2.0.4. The database is about 500GB. The network between primary and DR is limited at 10m bit/second. Primary is at Atlanta and DR is at Virginia.
The choices are, I think, that I can do an upgrade at primary and send the db copy to DR to build the standby db (this may take a whole day at least). Or I can upgrade primary to 10g. At same time bring the standby to normal database to upgrade to 10g and then bring it back to DR mode (can I do this technically?).
What is the best in term of minimum down time? Or do we have any other choices? Thanks.

Hi
Thanks a lot for prompt reply! My understanding is that you recommend option1:
Option1 (in my understanding way):
0. Stop both application and standby database
1. upgrade primary to 10g
2. Re-start application to point primary on 10g
3. Take a backup (eiterh rman or manual hot) - this could take while 3-4 hours
4. Send backup to standby site - this will be while 6-8 hours
5. Create a standby control file from primary to send over to standby
6. Create and start standby DB and let it apply all logs generated during the priod of step 2,3,4,5. (this could be while as the database is very active)
I thought possible option2:
Option2:
0. Stop application, primary, and stadby databases.
1. Upgrade primary to 10g. At same time, activate the standby to normal db and upgrade it to 10g. At end of the step, hopefull, both primary and standby is still in sync.
2. Re-start the application to point primary on 10g
2. Create a standby control file from primary to send over to standby
3. Create and start stadnby DB and let it apply all logs generated during the period of step 2.
It looks that option2 will be taking shorter time overall as no duplication needed. Would that be possible technically and practically?
Thanks for any advice!
