What is the difference between saving to "Documents" and "Macintosh HD" and when should you use each one?*

What is the difference between saving to "Documents" and "Macintosh HD" and when should you use each one?

When you save to the folder with the little house icon, the file is placed at
/Users/your_user_name/
You would really have to go out of my way to save at:
(the shortcut for the Boot Drive, regardless of its name).
I am not sure how you decided that Time Machine is not saving your files. The default is for Time Machine to do incremental Backups of everything on all attached drives, except for certain temporary information in Cache files. If you have four Users, Time Machine will back them all up.
Looking at the raw Time Machine backups will tell you very little, because it does lots of its work with Hard Links, and because it does incremental backups, so only files that changed since the last Backup are saved at thet cycle. The way to determine whether Time Machine is saving things is to display the window you care about in the Finder, then invoke the "Star wars"/ "Back, back, back in time" Interface.

  • What's the difference between defining a Thread within a class and....

    Guys,
    I am really confused when it comes to thread.
    What's the difference between defining a Thread within a class and implementing a Thread in a class?
    I just want to know about this. What is the difference between the two code classes?
    public class A
    public A()
    public Start()
    Thread th = new Thread():
    th.start(this);
    public class A extends Thread
    public A()
    *{*{code}*}*  
    *public Start()*
    *run();*

    My Googling show that the E/A may be a little newer but it appears that the E/A was not originally sold in the USA. The E/A appears to be sold in a Spanish speaking country.

  • What's the difference between keep cookies until I close firefox and clear cookie history when firefox closes?

    In the settings for Firefox 33.0 (I am using Ubuntu 14.04 but the functionality is the same for Windows 7) there are two different ways to delete cookies when firefox closes. Or at least there seems to be.
    First is the keep cookies until firefox closes
    Second is to check the box to clear history when firefox closes and in the settings check cookies.
    What is the difference between these two options?
    I usually have both setup but I was noticing that a login was not saving for td canada trust easyweb, even though I have an exception set for it. Now I unchecked to delete cookies when clearing the history on close and the login saves correctly.
    This login saves 7 cookes under easyweb.td.com and 10 cookies under td.com and I have exceptions set for both. If I clear history on close and include cookies, half of the td.com cookies are gone when I close firefox and re-open. The same is true if I don't set the exception.
    So currently I cannot figure out a way to keep all the cookies if I clear cookie history when firefox closes. What is the difference when this is enabled?

    Let all cookies expire when Firefox is closed to make them session cookies.
    *Firefox/Tools > Options > Privacy > "Use custom settings for history" > Cookies: Keep until: "I close Firefox"
    Create a cookie 'allow' exception for cookies that you would like to keep.
    *Firefox/Tools > Options > Privacy > "Use custom settings for history" > Cookies: Exceptions
    Clearing "Site Preferences" clears all exceptions for cookies, images, pop-up windows, software installation, passwords, and other website specific data.
    Clearing cookies will remove all specified (selected) cookies including cookies with an allow exception that you would like to keep.
    *Tools > Options > Privacy > Firefox will: "Use custom settings for history": [X] "Clear history when Firefox closes" > Settings

  • What is the difference between Ipad Air with code MD787B/A and MD787FD/A??

    Hi - what is the difference between Ipad Air with the code MD787B/A and MD787FD/A ??

    You can see the model number in Settings>General>About>Model. The model number has a two-letter code, a number and some more letters. The last part stands for the country/region. The first letter can be "F" (refurbished), "M" (normal retail), or "P" (personalized / engraved). For example MC605B is the model MC605 and B is for the region.
    What country does my device belong to?

  • What is the difference between a Serial ATA 3 TB Drive and 3 TB Fusion Drive

    What is the difference between a Serial ATA @ 7200 rpm 3 TB Drive and 3 TB Fusion Drive

    A Fusion Drive is a proprietary combination of a hard drive and a solid state drive (SSD) engineered to dynamically move data you use most onto the fast SSD - so it's a lot faster than the equivalent hard drive, but much cheaper than a pure SSD storage solution would be.

  • What is the difference between jdk version 1.3.1-b24 and 1.3.1_02-b02?

    Hi,
    This is a weird question. But I really need to know the difference between jdk vesion 1.3.1-b24 and 1.3.1_02-b02.
    Anyone has a clue?
    Thanks
    Wayne

    This is a weird question. But I really need to know
    the difference between jdk vesion 1.3.1-b24 and
    1.3.1_02-b02.Bug fixes only.
    When reading the strings above, ignore the part saying "-b##" (that's the build number). So you're looking at 1.3.1 (the base release), and 1.3.1_02 (patch 02 on 1.3.1).

  • What is the difference between Saved views and queries

    Hi all,
    Just i want to know the difference between 2 options in the Bex Analyzer.  Those options are "Queries" and " Saved Views". Please check it out and let me know the difference

    To add to the previous posts, saved views can also be useful when developing web templates. You can create and save one query and then save a number of views from this query, with different layouts, filters etc. web templated can then be developed using the saved views. BW 2004s introduces a whole load of standard functions to switch dataproviders in web templates. Thes can be used to switch between a number of views in a template. I have used this to present selections of key figures, switch navigation states etc.

  • What is the difference between iPod nano 6Gen darkgrey MC688ZD/A and MC688QB/A

    Hi everyone,
    I am looking for an iPod nano 6 Gen in darkgrey color.
    Now I found two models (both 8Gb, darkgrey, 6Generation) but different Part No.: MC688ZD/A and MC688QB/A
    Does anyone know if there is a difference between these two?
    Looking forward to your assistance.
    Kind regards, Erik-Jan

    The difference in the model numbers indicates the geographical location where the product is meant to be sold.  The first model number is for France, the Netherlands, and Germany.  The serial number may have the specific maunfacturing location coded in it.

  • What's the difference between  El Gato Eye Tv 250 Plus and Canopus ADVC110

    Is there any difference between these two devices? Both enable me to transfer videos/ Both enable me to hook up a television signal. So - is there any other significant difference?
    Thanks.

    Canopus will convert the analog source to DV format which is natively editable by iMovie.
    EyeTV 250 and EyeTV Hybrid will convert the analog source to MPEG2. To edit in iMovie you need to further convert the MPEG2 files using MPEG Streamclip (free) and the Apple QuickTIme MPEG2 Playback Component ($20). You can convert them to AIC or DV for best editing results. I deinterlace in this step, as well. If you don't plan to edit, you can sent the MPEG2 files directly to TOAST from the EyeTV software. You can also convert the MPEG2 files to h.264 format using the EyeTV software for use on AppleTV, iPhone, iPod, iTunes, etc.
    Personally, I use the EyeTV Hybrid, which is all you need if you have an Intel Mac. If you have a Power PC Mac, get an EyeTV that offloads the processing such as the 250. I have to go through an extra step before editing, but I am getting excellent results, and I also get to watch and record HDTV on my Mac.
    These days, I should also mention that the EyeTV solution connects via USB, while the Canopus connects via Firewire. Some recent MacBooks do not have a Firewire port, but if you have an older Macbook, or any iMac, Mac Pro, MacBook Pro, Mac Mini, they should all have firewire.

  • What is the difference between Ipad 3rd Generation,Ipad 4th Generation and Ipad with retina display?

    Are they all the same things?Can you please tell me the differences and model numbers?

    While the 3rd generation iPad also has a Retina display, it was marketed as simply "The New iPad." The 4th generation is referred to by Apple is the "iPad with Retina display."
    The latest iPad features the new smaller Lightning connector, Apple A6X processor, support for 5GHz band Wi-Fi and expanded LTE coverage. Externally, you can tell them apart by the 30-pin connector versus the smaller Lightning connector.
