What is the best practice to move from Outlook 2010 to icloud. I want to sync primarily contacts and calendars.

I would like to move from Outlook 2010 (originally on Exchange) to icloud, however I read lots of bad experiences about this. Has anyone developed a good practice procedure for this? I primarily want to sync Outlook 2010 calendar and contacts with a cloud service and my iphone. I currently use a Dell latitude PC, outlook 2010, have upgraded to iOS 5 on an iphone 3GS (soon to be an 4GS).

I was trying to find the answer to this myself.
I found it.
Use iCloud Control Panel for Windows: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1455
I found that you don't need to create separate iCloud contact and calendar folders before installing this, it does that for you (in fact, you can't choose what these new folders are called, or where they go, but I guess you're unlikely to have anything else in your Outlook named "iCloud" before you start.)

What's the best practice to upgrade 3GS from 3.1.2 to 4.2.1

I was reading the thread which was very helpful:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2665989
But there is a slight difference here with my situation:
-- I'm planning to upgrade from 3.1.2 to 4.2.1, yet in that thread the guy was trying to upgrade from 4.1
And recently a friend told me he had an error 1013 during upgrade. Google also mentioned another error code, 1015, related to upgrading to 4.2.1
1. Does anyone know what exactly caused Error 1013 and 1015?
2. what is the best practice to upgrade from 3.1.2? Upgrading to 4.1 first and then upgrade from 4.1 to 4.2.1? Will that eliminate the occurring of these itunes errors?
*(Yes, I know apple has officially terminated supporting upgrading an iphone firmware to anything below 4.3. But can we just discuss my questions hypothetically?)*
Thanks people.

What is the best practice to handle JPA methods in JSF app?

I am building a JSF-JPA web app(No EJB).
I have several methods that has JPA QL inside.
Because I have to put those methods inside JSF beans to inject EntityManagerFactory (am I right about this?).
And I do want to separate those methods from regular JSF beans which are used by page authors.
And I may need to use them in different JSF managed beans.
My question here is that what is the best practice to handle that?
I. write a or a few separate JSF Beans and inject them into regular Beans?
II. write a or a few separate JSF Beans and access them into regular Beans using FacesContext?
III. others?
Waiting to hear from you opinions.

You can create named queries on your Entities themselves then just call entityMgr.createNamedQuery("nameOfQuery");
Normally, we put these named queries in the class of the entity which will be returned. This allows for all information pertaining to a given entity and all ways of accessing that entity (except em.find() and stuff, of course) to be in one place. As long as the entity is defined in your persistence.xml file, any named queries which reside on that entity will be available through the EntityManager.
As for the EntityManagerFactory, we normally create an application scope bean which holds the factory itself (because this is a heavy-weight object) and then just get all EntityManager instances from that by injecting this bean into whatever needs it. For example, I might have:
//emfBB is the injected app scope bean which holds the entity manager factory.
private EmfBB emfBB;
private void lookupSomeData()
EntityManager em = this.getEmfBB().getEmf()
I hope this answered your question?

What's the best way to migrate from an old iMac to a new iMac?

What's the best way to move files from my old G3 to my new Intel DuoCore?

I just received my new Intel DuoCore 17" iMac. For years I have been using a much-loved G3 500 mHz iMac. The new Intel iMac is still in the box, but I believe it shipped with OS 10.4.4. The G3 runs 10.2.6. I have a dial-up connection to the Internet; currently DSL is not available in my neighborhood. What is the best way to move my files from the G3 to the Intel dc? Can I simply connect them with an Ethernet cable and transfer files directly? Or is my best bet to simply save the files I want to transfer to a disc and do it the old-fashioned way? Please forgive me in advance for my ignorance; although I have been a Mac user and supporter for many years, I am astonishingly ignorant when it comes to the best way to using both Mac hardward and software.
iMac Intel DuoCore Mac OS X (10.4.4)

There are two issues - 1. Getting the files moved over, and 2. Being able to open them on the Intel iMac.
1. This can be technically easy if you are willing to spend the time. I moved all my stuff from my old Mac to my new one by hooking the two together with an ethernet cable, directly. You would need both machines to have appropriate IP addresses. (go to the network preferences and pull down the built-in ethernet panel.) Some addresses such as 192.168.1.100 and 192.168.1.101 would work with a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0) Now go to the new iMac and make sure the finder is selected (click on the desktop) and under the "GO" menu select "Connect to Server". You will need to put in the IP address of the old machine, and later it's administrative password. Then select its hard drive from the list (possibly only one choice) and it should appear as an icon on your iMac desktop. You can open this like any other drive and just drag items to the new iMac.
2. Whether you can use all the files moved over from the old G3 is difficult to answer. You may be using Classic mode sometimes on the G3 and have some stuff created with a Classic application. You are probably aware that the new Intel iMac does not support Classic mode, so some of these files may not be useable without a bit of work (or at all, perhaps.) For instance I had to purchase Appleworks to handle some of my old Clarisworks documents because Pages couldn't understand them. Once I had them converted to Appleworks documents, I could then convert them again to Pages documents.
I had some old MacDraw Pro documents that were equally problematic.
I would advise you to get the new iMac out of the box and connected to your dialup internet connection first. Do all the software updates until running software updater says there is nothing new. Then you will be at 10.4.7 with all the latest security and fixes etc. Then disconnect from the internet and use an ethernet cable to get the stuff off the old computer.
There will be lots more to do such as moving your mail, address box entries etc. later, but this is a start.

What are the best practices for generating an EPS logo from InDesign?

Our costomer is running into technical issues with the logo we sent them, which was exported from Indesign. Images were not embedded and fonts missing. I was able to embed the images and fonts. However, we DO NOT want them to be able to make any text changes. So after exporting an eps, I opened the file in Adobe Illustrator and made all the text outlines. I hope this works. But I just wanted to post the question on what are the best practices for doing this?
The client needs the logo with transparent background, images emebdded and type in outlines. Also, they need some space around the text. When I exported the eps, the file is right up on the edge of the type.

It sounds like you are pretty far from "best practice" with regard to logo design and delivery.
These days, the very use of the EPS format should be considered bad practice, and some other terms in your post, (i.e., 'images,' 'missing fonts'), make it sound like there is not a seasoned logo designer involved.
That said, you probably already got the advice you need to get out of the immediate jam. However, without proper logo design, you and the client will soon be facing other problems. You should be delivering a 100% vector graphic in single-color (black) and corporate-color(s) versions, with no live font data, that has been test-scaled to very small and very large sizes; ensuring it will work at postage-stamp size and on the side of a truck or building, with specific spot color(s) and proportions that will enable it to be offset printed, embroidered and screen-printed on apparel, and cut into signage materials and decals.

What is the best practices recommended from microsoft to give access a intranet portal from internet externally

Hi
what is the best practices recommended from microsoft
i have a intranet portal in my organization used by employees and i want to give access for employees to access external from internet also
can i use same url for employees access intranet portal from internally and externally or diffrent url?
like ( https://extranet.xyz.com.in) and (http://intranet.xyz.com.in)
internal url access by employees is( http://intranet.xyz.com.in)
and this portal configured with claims based authentication
here i have a F5 for load blance and
a request from external to F5 is https request and F5 to sharepoint server http request
and sharepoint server to F5 is http request but F5 to external users it is https response so
when i change below settings in alternate access mapings all links changed to https
but only authentication link is still showing http and authentication page not opened.
adil

Hi,
One of my clients has an environment similar to yours with an internal pair of F5s and a pair used for the access from the internet.
I am only going to focus on the method using an F5 Load Balancer and SSL Offloading. the setup of the F5 will not be covered in detail but a reference to the documentation to support SharePoint and SSL Offloading will be provided
Since you arte going to be using SSL Offloading you do not need to extend your WebApps to use separate IIS WebSites with Unique IP Addresses
Configure the F5 with SSL Offloading
Configure a Internal AAM for SSL (HTTPS) for each WebApp that maps to the Public HTTP FQDN AAM Setting for each WebApp
Our environment has an additional component we require RSA Authentication for all internet facing Sites. So we have the extra step of extending the WebApp to a separate IIS WebSite and configuring RSA for each extended WebSite.Reference:

What is the best way to move data from one array to another

I'm going to be moving data from one array to a larger array on the same RAID but different controller. (I have some extra extra drives I'm also going to be installing Retrospect so I can't just restore from a backup.)
The RAID has 450GB of production files, fonts etc.
What is the best way to move the data over?
I saw that someone had suggested using ditto. Would that be better than MacMV?
I also own Bru LE so I could use that.
Any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Paul

Ditto is a great option -- probably the best.

What's the best way to move my contacts from my current iPhone5 to another iPhone?

What's the best way to move my contacts from my current iPhone5 to another iPhone?

Use iCloud. First, on your iPhone, open Settings > iCloud, and enable Contacts, so your contacts will appear on all your devices logged in iCloud.
Then, on the other iPhone, open Settings > iCloud, log in with your Apple ID and enable Contacts, so they will show up on this phone.

What is the best way to move multiple formats of songs/photos/podcasts to a new computer?

For most of my life, I have used my family's home Windows desktop to establish my iTunes account with my iPod Classic (5th gen). On this computer I have:
iTunes store purchases
CD imports
Other MP3 files
Podcasts
Photos downloaded from online
Now I am in college in another city, and I won't be able to come home much, so I'm setting up iTunes on my laptop as my new "home base", as it were. I've already authorized it under the same account that I use on my desktop. What is the best way to move all of this stuff from my old computer to my new one? I'm thinking an external hard drive is the best decision, but I want the input of the Apple community. You guys are much more knowledgable than I am! Thanks!

Hey Alayna,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities, and thanks for the question! I'm not really in a position to recommend a "best" option, as there are several different ways to go. You can read over your options in the following document and decide which one works best for you:
