What is the best way to do movie scoring and narrating

I am making a movie that requires voice narrating and some scoring. like sound effects. what is the best method for that?

In two words, FILM SCHOOL.
This is something that can't really be taught about in a forum. People go to four years of film school, or work with an editor for years to figure out what to do.
Cut the scene. Perhaps you add temp music while you are doing it, or after. Depends on your style and needs of the scene. The final music is added later, typically done by a composer who watches the final cut of the film. Sometimes you might use pre-produced music that you have on CD and then pay for the rights to use.
SOund effects. Typically I add temp sound effects while I cut. But, after I am done cutting the scene. I add them later for emphasis. Maybe in the middle if it is a key element, like a phone ringing.
Narration. Depends on the film. But typically I do the temp narration so that I can time the scene, then during the sound mixing phase a profesional narrator is hired to do the job. The final sound mix is typically where all the master sound elements like Music, sound effects and narration are added. All on separate audio tracks.
HOW is this all done? Go to film school to find out. Or become an assistant editor and see how the editor works. This is an art as well as a craft. Years to perfect.

What is the best way to back up iPhoto and create disc space

what is the best way to back up iPhoto and then remove the iphoto folder from the mac book and onto the external apple time capsule

Two different questions
the best qway to backup is to use TimeMachine or other automatic backjup program
However this does not allow you to reduce space since a backup need to be a copy of your existing library and as soond as you changge the library you no longer have a backup and sooner or later the photos will be gone form the bakcujp too
You need to run the iPhoto library on an external drive or had a complete library on and external drive and a smaller library on yoru internal drive using iPhoto Library Manager - http://www.fatcatsoftware.com/iplm/ - to move photos between the two libraries
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

We have always used one iTunes account and I want to crate a new account for my daughter. What is the best way to go about this and will she need to download free apps again?

Not going to happen the way you want it to.
When you add a gift card balance to the Apple ID, it's available for the Apple ID.
Probably best to create unique Apple ID's for each... this will also make things easier in the future as purchases are eternally tied to the Apple ID they were purchased with.

What is the best way to safeguard my files and pictures before I send off my MacBook Pro to get fixed?

What is the best way to safeguard my files and pictures before I send off my MacBook Pro to get fixed? I am running Mavericks and use an AirPort Time Machine to back-up all my files.

Back up all data on the internal drive(s) before you hand over your computer to anyone. You need at least two independent backups to be completely safe. There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional—ask if you need guidance.
If privacy is a concern, erase the data partition(s) with the option to write zeros* (do this only if you know how to restore to an empty drive.) Don’t erase the recovery partition, if present.
Keeping your confidential data secure during hardware repair
Apple also recommends that you deauthorize a device in the iTunes Store before having it serviced.
*An SSD doesn't need to be zeroed.

In the page I simply referenced the facescontext directly... no need for a custom servlet.
public void createcookie() {
FacesContext fc = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
HttpServletResponse resp = (HttpServletResponse)fc.getExternalContext().getResponse();
Cookie userCookie = new Cookie("cookiename", "cookievalue");
userCookie.setMaxAge(-1);
userCookie.setMaxAge(3600);
resp.addCookie(userCookie);
return null;
public String readcookie() {
FacesContext fc = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
ExternalContext ec = fc.getExternalContext();
Map cookiemap = ec.getRequestCookieMap();
if (cookiemap != null) {
Cookie cookie = (Cookie) cookiemap.get("cookievalue");
return cookievalue;
For reference I could not get getCookies() method of HttpServletRequest to work.. it would only return JSESSIONID.

What is the best way to back up photos and videos to a dvd from iPhoto, not in iPhoto format but just in jpeg format to access on either windows or mac

what is the best way to back up photos and videos to a dvd from iPhoto, not in iPhoto format but just in jpeg format to access on either windows or mac

When you export the videos out of iPhoto be sure to select Kind = Original. Otherwise you'll just get an image file of the first frame of the video.

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

What is the best way to captue current date and time?

I got a field in table to capute current date and time...i am
using SQL Server.
field name datatype length
enter_datetime datetime 8
What is the best way to get current date and time and insert
to table?.
Is this way?.
<cfset curtime = 'dateformat(#now()#,'mm/dd/yyyy')&"
"&timeformat(#now()#,'hh:mm:ss')'>
This way looks like time is not entered correctly.
or any other better way?.

> get current date and time and insert to table?
You can use cfqueryparam
<cfqueryparam value="#now()#"
cfsqltype="cf_sql_timestamp">
Or as was suggested, set the default for your table column to
getdate(). Then you won't have to insert anything. Sql server will
do it automatically when a new record is created.

What is the best way to transfer only Photos and Music from imac to imac?

hello i have an old 24" imac that is loaded down with iphoto pictures and itunes music. i recently got the new 27" imac and wish to only transfer the photos and music files to the new computer. i have a cloned hard drive of my old imac as well as a time capsule copy of it.
i don't want to just restore my entire old hard drive onto my new imac because there is a lot of junk on there i don't want on there. so, what is the easiest way to move just these two types of files? i don't know how to find these files and move them?
i know how to attach both imacs via firewire, i just don't know what is the best way to make the transfer of both these file types?
thank you!

copy the folders /users/username/music/itunes and /users/username/pictures/iphoto library to the corresponding locations on the new install.
note: itunes and iphoto should not be running when you do this.

I want to sell my old macbook air, what is the best way to get my files and programs off of it?

I am going to sell my macbook air (2011) as I am replacing it with a macbook pro retina. I want to remove my files and programs from it before I sell it. What is the best way to go about this?

1) Perform a Time Machine or Cloned image backup of your system.
2) Test the Clone tomake sure it works, by booting to it (using the option key).
3) Boot to the Recovery Partition, then perform an erasure, followed by a reinstallation of the OS.
4) Shut off the Mac, after instllation and before the reboot. This will permit the next user to experience a "fresh out of the box" experience.
5) Use the Time Machine or Cloned image to migrate your apps, users & files to your new system, using SETUP ASSISTANT. Do not use Migration Assistant.

What is the best way to run AirPort Extreme and Airport Time Capsule together?

I have cable DSL, and I was running an AirPort Extreme. DH was sold a time capsule, so I just daisy-chained off the airport. We had an issue with limited reach, so I tried to reconfigure. Now I have no wifi at all. Tried everything I can think of. What is the best way to handle these two products, or should one be left out? Any suggestions would be great.

Decide which one you would like to serve as your router, and configure the other one as a bridge. If they are both the most recent models of each neither one is particularly advantageous over the other.
Connect them to each other with an Ethernet cable if you want to create a "roaming network", or not, if you want to create a "wirelessly extended" network. A roaming network is the better of those two choices.
"Hard reset" the one connected to the modem and use AirPort Utility to configure it. Verify everything works to your satisfaction, then "hard reset" the other and configure it.
To "hard reset" an AirPort Base Station: make sure it's powered up, then press and hold its tiny reset button and keep it depressed for five to ten seconds, long enough for its LED to flash amber rapidly. Release the reset button. Then, the LED will glow amber steadily for about a minute. Then, it will flash amber, slowly, about once every second or two, waiting for you to configure it with AirPort Utility.

What's the best way to manage movie resolutions with iTunes/iPod

I've just been given a new video iPod, and am now considering importing movies into iTunes so that I can have them on my iPod. What I have is a bunch of MPGs (e.g., family movies from a camcorder, etc.); but I noticed that the iPod won't play them, presumably because they're not MP4 format. I know I can convert them all to MP4 with iSquint or a similar utility. But I want to keep the full-resolution versions in iTunes so that I can display them on a bigger screen as well. So, what is the right way to manage this - do I really need to keep and have in iTunes 2 versions of every movie - one scaled down for iPod as MP4, and one in original resolution? Or is there a better way?
Thanks in advance,
Mike

Welcome to the Apple Community.
iTunes is straight forward, just use the same ID on all of them.

You should think about what you want in calendars, contacts etc, on your shared devices.
