What is the best way to restore very recently deleted partition ?, What is the best way to restore very recently deleted partition ?
Can anyone please advise the best course of action here:
I time machined what I thought to be my Mac Pro 1,1 but actually backed up my Macbook Pro 3,1
I was having problems with main hdd and repair was not working so i deleted partition... and when i ran time machine realised i had not backed up from march.
Is there anyway to revert to that partitioning or restore it? Any programs?
Or do I just have to recover the lost files ?
If the lost data is of high value to you, consider sending the drive to a professional recovery service such as DriveSavers. Otherwise, there's little hope, but some have had at least partial success with a product called "Data Rescue."

I have lightroom 5.7. Now I have apple TV to connect my Mac to the TV scree. I wish to do a slide show on the TV. However, on the Mac, using ITunes to share photos with the TV, I cannot locate all photo files. What is the best way to save the slide show and put it where the Mac sharing can find it? So far, I made on one folder in Lightroom, put some photos there and I found them easily. Can this be done with a slide show? Please help quickly! Also worried that the photos I put on the new folder are hard to find afterwards, when the show is done. Where do they go when I delete from from the new folder?I am not alone
Not that I'm aware of. You just export JPEG copies to a folder that you can point iTunes to. For instance, I have created a folder in my Pictures folder called Apple TV. And within that folder I have other folders of pictures that I can choose from in iTunes to share with Apple TV. But there doesn't seem to be any way to share a Lightroom slideshow. If you have laid to create a video file that would probably work. Apple TV is a little clunky in my opinion. Some things are a little more difficult to do now than they were a while back. I probably haven't provided you with much help, but just keep experimenting and I think you will figure it out.

I've replaced my 10.5.8 with another machine 10.6.8 which as we know doesn't support Apple Talk which has been used to print to 2 bulletproof older printers and an imagesetter. I wan't to keep using the printers and can use the 10.5.8 as a server. What is the best way to do this?
Hi
You could do this a number of ways. Using the LPD Daemon might work best for your location?
First: assign the machine you're going to use as the 10.5.8 'server' a fixed IP address.
Second: add desired printers to that machine using the usual methods.
Once added share them using the Print Sharing option in the Sharing Preferences Pane. On the 10.6.8 machine add the printer using the IP address of the 10.5.8 'server'.
System Preferences > Print & Fax and click the '+' icon. Click on the IP Icon and key in the IP address you previously assigned. Leave the Queue field alone and select the relevant PPD from the Print Using field (see below). You'll have to search for these yourself.
You don't have to 'install' the PPDs on the 10.6.8 machine as such. Simply copying them over from their location on the 10.5.8 machine (use a memory stick to do the transfer) to the same location on the 10.6.8 machine will be enough.
There should be no need to restart.
HTH?

What is the best way to deal with different audio sample rates on the same timeline ?
what is the best way to deal with different audio sample rates on the same timeline ?
You don't have to do anything special. If possible, start your project with a clip that has the desired target frame rate and audio sample rate, and your project parameters will be set automatically. Other sample rates will be converted under the covers.
For example, if your video is shot at 48khz, you can add music files at 44.1khz with no problem.
If you are recording audio that you want to synch with video (multicam), you will get best results if everything is 48khz, but you can use 44.1 if that is all you have. Once I forgot to reset my Zoom to 48,000 and it still worked. -
What is the best way to import word documents from a PC to the Ipad2
What is the best way to import word documents from a PC to the Ipad 2?
You first need an app on the iPad that supports word documents - the iPad doesn't have a file structure like a 'normal' computer, and every file/document needs to be associated with an app. If you don't have such an app then options include Apple's Pages app and third-party apps such as Documents To Go and QuickOffice HD. How you then get the documents on the iPad will depend upon the app that you have/get as different apps may use different methods e.g. via the file sharing section at the bottom of the device's apps tab when connected to iTunes, via wifi, email, dropbox etc.

I did ask this a while back and appreciate your responses. We did upgrade to TestStand 2.0. The basic problem is that I have written and TestStand sequence to test Avionics black boxes. We use Excel to specify the signal names and input data and expected output data for thousands of test cases. My LabVIEW VI's are small generic modules that refer back to TestStand to determine how to set or get the signals. This way, on other projects, we simple change a few signal names, instruments, and were good to go. We use Analog, Digital, Pulse Trains, Synchro Resolvers, LVDT/RVDT, power supplies, logic analyzers, ... to perf
orm these test. The TestStand sequence can run different black boxes on difference test benches based on the data contained with the TestStand FileGlobals. Now I have come across a special situation where in a couple of input signals are set based on a couple of output signals. I developed a short sequence to read the output signals, compute the values of the inputs signals, and set the instrument to send that data to the UUT for those couple of signals. Anyway, I have to reference the FileGlobals to determine what the instruments are and how to access them are used for the signals involved. Since I have a lot of FileGlobal data, I can not pass it as parameters to the parallel sequence.
What I would like to be able to do is just reference the main sequence's FileGlobals as if they were the parallel sequence's FileGlobals.
I am willing to send a copy of the sequence being used to whomever thinks they know a good way to accomplish this if it would help them to determine what I am t
rying to do. I will need to know who you are since we do not want this being published, as is, since it contains some signals names which the company that I am consulting at may consider proprietary. You can
email me directly at my company
[email protected]a) If the parallel sequence is in the same file and...
a1) ...you launch the parallel sequence as a thread in the execution of main sequence, you do not need to do anything. The sequences share the same file globals
a2) ...you launch the parallel sequence as a separate execution, you must mark the file globals as shared by all executions. You specify this in the Sequence File Global control on the sequence file properties dialog box.
b) If the parallel sequence is in a different file (or even the same file), you can pass the entire set of file globals as a single sequence parameter to the parallel sequence when you launch it. Make a Container parameter and right click on it to turn off type checking. Pass FileGlobals to the parameter. When you edit the subsequenc
e, you won't be able to see specific file globals under the parameter but they will appear at runtime. -
What is the best way to resize a JPEG and store it in the Filesystem
Hi All,
I have developped a CMS System that renders JPEGs if it does not have the images available within the desired width already. Within my development setup (Dell Latitude D800 with ubuntu dapper drake) everything works fine and fast, as expected. Then I uploaded the application to my V20Z Server with 4gb RAM and the systems performance goes to its knees. I have hooked in a Java Profiler to see where the problem is, and it showed me that it is hanging wthin

Kind regardsThis is a bad thing to do with JPEGs. You're better off just reducing the 'q' if you want a smaller/faster/lower resolution image. That way you're throwing away resolution intelligently. Using scaling you're throwing resolution away unintelligently. I was on a project where 40,000 images were scaled when they should have been low-q'd. Don't do it.

Need to reformat hard drive and restore Time Machine backup. What's the safest way to proceed?
I have a Mac desktop, purchased in 2007. We upgraded last year to Snow Leopard. It has been slow for a few days, and yesterday wouldn't go past the gray screen. Tried booting in recovery with no success, same for safe mode. Even tried fsck -fy. Eventually went to the Snow Leopard install disk and tried to repair disk, but got an "Disk Utility can't repair this disk. Back up as many of your files as possible, reformat the disk, and restore your backed-up files" message. I've got Time Machine back ups on an external hard drive, but I want to make sure I do this right and don't make things worse. What steps do I need to take?
In most of the cases, that Disk Utility message means that the hard drive is damaged.
However, you can try to erase the disk and restore the Time Machine backup to see if it works. Follow these steps:
1. Insert the Snow Leopard DVD and press the C key while your Mac is starting.
2. Go to Utilities menu > Disk Utility, select Macintosh HD on the sidebar, go to Erase tab and erase the disk. If there's an error during this step, take the Mac to an Apple Store to get a new hard drive.
3. Close Disk Utility, go to Utilities menu, choose the option to restore a Time Machine backup and follow the steps.
If the computer is slow after doing this, take the Mac to an Apple Store as soon as you can -
I have used (and liked) Firefox from the first time it was offered. I
typically upgrade to newer versions as they come out. Sometimes
the newer version doesn't differ markedly from the previous one, but, until now, they were not usually a step backward. Upon installing Firefox 4 the welcome page indicated several new features. Specifically an app bar, and a bookmark button next to the home button. However neither of these features are on my copy of the program. Frankly, the only change that I see is the new position of the home button; and I don't like it. Moving the home button all the way across the page from the other commonly used buttons makes absolutely no sense to me, especially if the touted bookmark button doesn't exist. The new speed, if it continues, is nice, but other than that I see no real improvement over Firefox 3. So what's so great?The new interface is only default on Windows Vista and Windows 7. To get it on Windows XP you need to hide the menu bar. To do that in the View menu select Toolbars, then click on the "Menu Bar" entry.
If you need access to the menus you can press either Alt or F10 to temporarily display them.
You can rearrange the buttons and place them where you want, for details on how to do that see https://support.mozilla.com/kb/how-do-i-customize-toolbars -
What is the best way to re-install my apps data when changing the hard disk
My MacBook (120Gb disk) is finally full and I have ordered a 500Gb disk to replace it.
I am fine with changing over the disk but can anyone tell me the best way to reload all my apps and data from the present disk please?
I have a Time Machine backup on a Network disk, a copy of SuperDuper and also my original 10.5 OSX install disks.
ThanksRoger, since you have SuperDuper, I think the easiest thing to do would be to make a clone of your current hard drive to the new one when it arrives. You will need an external enclosure for the new drive; make sure it's formatted to Mac OS Extended (Journaled); Disk Utility will do this for you. Then connect that new drive via firewire or USB, and create the clone from your current drive using SuperDuper. Next, remove the internal drive from your Mac, insert the new drive and boot up. You can then place your older drive in the external enclosure to use for extra storage, though it won't be large enough to use as a cloned backup with SuperDuper.
Good luck! -
Recent software upgrades has changed the way my iPhone syncs with my macbook and items entered on my iPhone are no longer uploaded to my macbook. I've tried to fix it and seem to have made things worse, my iPhone now has a long list of calanders that I don't want and can't delete and nothing is uploading to my macbook.
You need to look at Mac's iTunes, check > System Preferences > iCloud.
If you use iCloud for Calendar, Contacts then turn off those items in iTunes, Info tab with your iPhone connected and selected. -
What's the best way to deal with having different units plotted on the same graph?
They are all using Voltage, so I guess I could have a way to switch between voltage and other units. The main readings will be temperature and strain gage readings, which I've then configured using the Measurement & Automation Explorer as Virtual Channels.
Any ideas/suggestions from people who've dealt with this before?
I'm using Labview 6.1.
Thank you!
LaurenI attached an example jpg plot of an application that I had.
I did not necessarily divide the data arrays by their maximum, even though it is an option. In this case 100% equals the maximum.
I divided them by a value that the operator sets(it is defaulted to some value). If that changes, the graphed is replotted, with the new normalized data
