What is the best way to allow multiple presentations/presenters iOS devices to a video device(single projector)

I am sure there are several ways to do this but I am rather new to iProducts. The instructor wants to allow students to present either from their own devices or from a mac mini where the presentations had been sent to prior to the class.
At first glance it seemed that an AppleTV would work great for this but I have been told that AppleTV is unreliable when it comes to multiple iOS sources.(Likely trying it out anyways.)
The other method I am looking at is to either grant the class' roll access to a DropBox account or use a 3rd party attachment email service to get all the students presentations to one place. Then its a as simple as using Splashtop or some other remote desktop app/software. Only thing there is the instructor wants the students to use their OWN devices to control the mini/presentation. I can only assume this is a bad idea, but I really don't know.
I have heard but have been unable to confirm that the new mac minis can be controlled from an iPad without additional app downloads, is this the case?
I guess I am at the very start of putting this together but does anyone here have any thoughts or advice?
Also, just throwing this out there, I am a PC guy but seeing how easily Macs set up and integrate in commercial jobs is about to guide me to making a switch.

Sir, here is 10 points! This is the perfect solution for what we are trying to do. I am not sure if the instructor will want to replace their projector although I bet I'd be able to convince them that they'd spend just as much and get half the functionality trying to save the existing projector.
Do you know if Epson is working on a mirroring function? Or if any other company has some sort of dongle or box(and an app) to accomplish this with any brand projector? I am still searching for these answers somewhere online but likely coming up on a dead end.
Also, have you had any experience with AirServer or Reflections?
Thank you again for the article, very very informative!

What is the best way to sync multiple collections of contacts among multiple users?

(I originally submitted this question under the "Mac OS X Technologies" section, but got no response. I'm submitting a duplicate here because this is where all the smart folks are! My apologies that my question is only partially related to OS X Server . . . )
What is the best way to sync multiple collections of contacts among multiple users on iOS and OS X?
For example, suppose I have three collections of contacts: Bob's, Sally's, and Common. I want Bob to be able to access and sync Bob's contacts and Common contacts, and Sally to access and sync Sally's contacts and Common contacts. Bob and Sally never need to access or sync each other's contacts. Bob and Sally would both sync and share contacts in Common.
How would I best implement this? It's my understanding I have three options for managing contacts across iOS and OS X: 1. iCloud accounts, 2. Install OS X server, or 3. Install and manage Darwin CardDAV directly. Which method would best support what I wish to do?
I am a seasoned Unix geek well versed in the terminal, so I am prepared to get my hands dirty as much as necessary to achieve what I want. Also, it is sufficient if syncing takes place over WiFi on the local network, in fact, that is desirable versus syncing over the cloud.

Thanks for your reply Nick101. I see my example was oversimplified. When I say "multiple groups of contacts over multiple users" I'm really referring to N groups of contacts over N users.
So I need to add Fred, who can access and sync Bob's contacts, Sally's contacts, and Common contacts, as well as Fred's contacts. Can I do it with OS X server?
You mention you keep your and your partner's contacts administered locally. What keeps you from administering them through OS X server as well?
I am guessing this can all somehow be accomplished with multiple contact accounts, but I can't find any information on the web explicitly describing this.

What is the best way to manage multiple ipods using the same itunes?

Hi Everyone
i am trying to manage three different ipods through the one Itunes, all with very different tastes, not sure if I am doing it the best or easiest way so does anybody have a simple solution on what you're supposed to do, to keep it all simple!
Cheers
Liv

If you have created a new Windows user account you need to log out and then log back in with your original user name. By default each Windows profile will have an independent iTunes library.
If instead you managed to create a new library within the same profile. click the icon to start iTunes and immediately press and hold down the shift key, keep holding until asked to create or choose a library. Click Choose and navigte back to your original which should be at <User's Music>\iTunes.
Your question as posed was:
What is the best way to manage multiple iPods using the same iTunes {library}?
in which case Selected Playlists is probably the best approach. Simply create a playlist for each device, Alice's iPod, Bob's iPhone etc. and sync the device with the appropriate list.

As long as it is pointed to iTunes it will be accessible via home sharing on Apple TV.

What is the best way to send multiple pdf files to my ipad

what is the best way or app to send multiple pdf files to my ipad, so that I can then combine them into one folder

I have the app Readdle Docs. It allows you to move PDF files to your device and to move them around on your device. Might check it out. ( I think there's an iPad version of the app, but I have the iPhone version and it works, just not as pretty)
THere's also Goodreader, but I don't have experience with it to know if it has folder abilities.

What is the best way to have multiple devices on the same account so we can still share the same library. Right now I have 7 and I believe it's causing them to malfunction.

I have multiple devices on the same itunes library and they all starting to have the same issues. Not recognizing numbers previously stored, not sending/receiving tests. Do I need to get everyone separate itunes accounts?

What is the best way to set up itunes on our home network?
One iTunes library per person. One iTunes account per person.
If people wish to share songs, they can make copies.
When the inevitable day comes when the kids get older, you will not have to come back here and post asking how all that stuff can get separated!

What is the best way to allow one to send an email? Confused.

Hi,
I researched on the forum for the ability to have someone click a button and be able to have a blank email pop up. I use to use this all the time.
However my question is since Outlook Express (and for that matter now Windows mail) are no longer included in the new operatings systems ... meaning everyone has to buy a mail program ... what is the best way to have someone send an email? I am particularly not fond of forms and would rather have them be able to have an email pop up.
However now you will miss a lot of people ... I use Windows mail thus the Outlook express code gives me an error.
THUS MY QUESTION:
Is there general code (and if so what is it?) that allows a person to click a button and send an email no matter what type email program they have?
If not is there an other way to accomplish this?
If not, if I must use a form/action script 2.0 ... does anyone have a sure-fire 2.0 script that is easy to use/debug/modify?
THANKS.

I don't understand what you mean by "be able to have blank email pop up" but Yes you can send an email without the need of any email programs through ActionScript via PHP through the POST method. There is a simple example in http://www.kirupa.com/developer/actionscript/flash_php_email.htm

UI design - what is the best way to allow the user to set some kind of infusion at varying (non periodic) times?

I want to allow the user to specify a curve like this:
Such that some subVI outputs the value A2 when a time variable is within the range R1, A1 when the time variable is within the range R2, and A3 when the time is within the range R3.
My design looks something like this:
With error checking that looks like this:
My question is, is the array based approach optimal? How else could I tackle this?

I think I can summarize the conversation to this point as an answer to the original question (What is the best way ...) -- before starting to write any code, think carefully about what you want to accomplish, and write it down (otherwise known as "Write the Documentation First"). One of the points of a good User Interface is that it doesn't allow users to "make silly mistakes" -- it leads the user "by the hand", restricting the entries to "legal values" and requiring that entries be made in a logical manner.
So if you were going to have a list of Infusions to enter, it makes sense to decide on whether to enter Time Intervals (which are always >0) or Times (which, logically) are always in ascending order. You can (and should) decide which you want (or you could have a control that would let the User decide, but that might be too flexible) and then enforce your "rules".
Suppose you decided on "Intervals" (which seems, to me, to be more User Friendly). After the User has entered the intervals (and you've provided a nice plot of Infusion vs Time), you could allow the User to "split" an Interval, "Remove" an Interval, or "Edit the Infusion" of an Interval, or you could decide to have a simpler "Accept or Start Over" choice -- if you only have a few intervals, the last might be the simplest (and thus the Best) Design Choice.
Spending more time thinking before coding usually pays Big Dividends!

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:

What's the best way to sample multiple AI's with different sampling rates under one task?

I'm using a PCI-6221 card and CVI 7.1.
I have a tri-axis vibration sensor and two other pressure transducers.
I want to take 10k samples from each vibration axis at 80 kHz. This is
possible by configuring the scan rate of the "vibration task" to 240
kHz. (The card maximum is 250 kHz).
I want to take 1k samples from each pressure transducer at 250 kHz. This happens very infrequently.
Each measurement is required by a separate task.
I thought I could do this by setting up three finite tasks (1
vibration, 2 pressure), but DAQmx won't let me run more than one AI
task at a time. I've read other posts here, and I realize I have to
add/remove physical channels on-demand.
What is the best way to optimize this setup so that I'm not hogging up system resources?
Should I do the following?
1. Stop the task
2. Remove the vibration channels from the task
3. Add in a pressure channel
4. Configure the pressure channel
5. Start the task
6. Take the pressure samples
7. Stop the task
8. Remove the pressure channel from the task
9. Add in the vibration channels
10. Configure the vibration channels
11. Start the task
Also, the vibration portion is running in finite mode, but I'm looping
it. Should I switch it to continuous and run the "DAQmxReadAnalogF64"
to sample the latest 10k samples. (If the task is continuous, would I
pull the latest 10k samples, or would I pull some old buffered samples
instead?)
Thank you,
Nobody

Hello Nobody,
If you configure your task timing to acquire a finite number of
samples, then you can only read the number of samples that you
specified in your configuration. Once you try to read more
samples, you will receive the error you are seeing.
If you configure your task timing for continuous acquisition,k then you
can read samples indefinitely. Any given DAQmx Read will read the
oldest unread samples in the buffer.
If you are going to be switching between different tasks, you will definitely need to stop one before you start the other one.
I hope this helps!

What is the best way to preorder multiple iPhone 6s and take advantage of the $200 trade in deal?

Here's my scenario.
Currently: I have 2 iPhone 4 and 1 iPhone 4S
Plan: Upgrade all three to iPhone 6 Plus (16GB)
What is the best way to do the $200 trade in deal for each of the old phone?
http://www.verizonwireless.com/support/faqs/Equipment/trade_in_program.html#iPhone Trade-in Promotion
1. When I preorder at 12:01 AM do I have to pay $300 or $100 for each?
2. Do I have to send the old iPhones first in order to get the $200 gift cards?
What should I do to make sure each preorder can be discounted?

Vice_Actual,
Thank you so much for reaching out to us. We are super excited about the launch of the new iPhone. In order to get the trade in deal you would need to trade in the device and then you would get a Verizon Wireless gift card mailed out to you. If you pay for the devices with a credit card on pre-order the card will not be charged until the devices are shipped.

What is the best way to configure password in Cisco IOS?

I am running IOS 15.2(4) on a 1921 Router
What is the best way to configure the password for the router? I have already tried once and managed to lock myself out of another switch. I would like to use the most secure method which encrypts the password.
Current Config:
username admin privilege 15 password 0 cisco123

Cisco IOS will not let me use a type 5 password. This is the error message I receive:
ERROR: The secret you entered is not a valid encrypted secret.
To enter an UNENCRYPTED secret, do not specify type 5 encryption.
When you properly enter an UNENCRYPTED secret, it will be encrypted.
I tried generating an MD5 hash and inputting that in and that did not work either. When I do not specify type 5 it will default to using an encrypted type 4 password.
Also, what is the difference between these two enable secret commands?
enable secret 5 password
username admin privilege 15 secret 5 password

What is the best way to manage multiple devices with one iMac - different users with seperate itunes accounts or one mac user with different itune logons and libraries?

Hello
I have just purchased an imac which I am very happy with. In our household we also have two iphones (one mine and one husbands) and one ipod (my sons). We all have individual itunes accounts set up on our previous computer (not a mac). We have sepereate apps and music, although there may be the odd occasion where we would like to share a song (if this is possible) across devices.
I am just wondering the best way to manage these devices using the new imac. Should I create individual accounts to logon to the imac, then from within these launch our own itunes accounts and sync our devices with these. Or should I be using one version of itunes, logging on to this with our different itunes usernames and storing things in libraries.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

I am presuming that we cannot share downloaded apps and music between accounts because of the copyright issue,
Though I'm no copyright lawyer, as long as it's within a household, you can share content among users. Such sharing is, absent specific language preventing it not present in the iTunes Store terms of use, generally considered to be "personal use". So you can share apps and music amongst your users on your computer and with their devices. You just can't give any of that content to friends or relatives who don't live with you.
What I am not clear on, it making sure that this appears in each itunes account - is it easy to find the file storage folders that match the itunes accounts and what would these be?
The iTunes library and files are by default in a user's Home/Music folder. But you don't have to find the folder; in fact putting a file into the folder yourself won't add the file to iTunes. Just drag the file into the iTunes window. iTunes will copy it to the correct location.
Regards.

What's the best way to setup multiple iDevices?

I have three iPods (1-3 & 2-4) and 2 iPads2, they are all tied into my own Apple ID and with the new changes/upgrading to iCloud what would be the best way to set these guys up?
I have my own playlist that I like to listen on my iDevices, but some of the songs or even movies are not appropriate for my kids so how would I set it up so not all music/photos/videos are made available on all my devices?
With the library I already have, is it just best to nuke the iDevices and start fresh with iOS5?
Thanks in advance

Hi,
According to your description, my understanding is that you need to create multi websites on the VPS with one static IP address.
Your question is more about IIS instead of DNS server. IIS has provide the function about creating multi websites on one machine. You may post on IIS forum for official support:
