What Resolution are you running your MBP-R at?

I got mine last Tuesday, I "Listened" to the fact that Apple has a "retina optimized' setting, right in the middle.  While Safari looks amazing at that setting, Firefox, safari, word and excel while looking VERY good are not as sharp.  Since then, I kept upping the resolution, now at the max, 1920 x 1200.  The non-optimized programs seem a LOT sharper, and life is good!  (Plus, I have oodles more screen real-estate.  I am 62 and prolly not the sharpest eyes, so wondering what others are finding works for them?
Bruce

Hi Bruce,
Everyones eyes are different, use what you like best. The retina display is awesome, and I find myelf changing the res. to fit a particular application, if I will be using it for a while., ei. flight sim, CAD, regular Apple stuff...
I say just enjoy what is best for you.

  • What resolution are you running your 30inch Apple monitor with?

    (NTSC)I have an 8core mac with the 30" cinema display. The only resolution that looks sharp with FCP is 2560 by 1600 but the motion adjustment window in FCP is too small. I've tried other resolutions but the only other one that matched the 30" side to side is 2048/1280 but the text looks a little blurry. The other presets don't fit the screen.
    Is there a way to be able to switch to other resolutions?

    In case you didn't know this to be fact - that's the nature of LCD displays (vs old-school tubes, that is), they only look right at a single resolution.
    I take it you can't resize the window in question? In case you weren't aware, you can drag a tab (say the Motion tab) from one window (the Viewer) into another (say the Timeline) to quickly give yourself more wiggle room. Or you can simply drag the tab out and it should stay open in it's own (floating) window, if my memory isn't failing me.
    Or does all that still not get to the heart of your problem?

  • What memory are you running in your KT6 Delta?

    I am looking at upgrading my memory. I am going for 1GB of pc3200 with decent latency. Please post your memory configuration as i want to know what works with the KT6 Delta before making a purchase
    I also wonder if i can use dual-channel memory even thought the board doesnt support it. So i wont need to upgrade my memory when i get a new dual-channel board.
    I would like to stay under/around $200

    HyperX as per sig.
    Don't understand your question "can I use dual channel memory even though the board doesn't support it." Makes no sense. Since the board doesn't support it the answer is surely no.
    BUT, if you mean "can I use 2 sticks which I'd normally buy for dual channel memory" then the answer is definitely yes. There's nothing special about dual channel memory kits - they are just matched pairs, that's all. The Delta series has 3 DIMM slots so go ahead and buy 2 sticks.
    Apologies if I've got the wrong end of the stick!

  • Error: X "does not have permission to write to the application's directory! Are you running off a disk image? If not, ask your system administrator for help."

    I have received to following error from at least three different applications when they have attempted to auto-update recently: X "does not have permission to write to the application's directory! Are you running off a disk image? If not, ask your system administrator for help." 
    I am not running off a disk image and I have admin privileges... Not sure what the problem is, but it just started happening (a week or two ago) and I have never previously had a problem with these applications auto-updating.  I have repaired permissions and attempted other "fixes" found on the interweb, but nothing works.  Also, this is only happening on my iMac (27" Intel i5) and not my MacBook Pro (17" Intel i5) -- both are running Lion.  Please help!

    If you updated using the default install (merge) from before Tiger, you may be seeing an issue that we saw when Leopard first came out last year.
    Not sure of the fix - it was not simple - but if you search back in these forums you might find something that will help. I believe it deals with the numbers assigned to accounts (501, etc).
    If you open your Accounts Preferences and unlock the padlock, right-click Advanced Options and read your User ID and Group ID. Let us know what they are.
    Now, in the other user admin account, do the same thing.
    One of the real experts who knows much more about this than I may be able to then help.

  • What functionality are you successfully using in your EO SuperClasses?

    Hi Everyone:
    We are very new to JHeadstart/JDeveloper and have just established the method we are going to use at the Entity Level to convert input to Uppercase by putting the following code into a superclass and extending the .xml files of the entities from EntityImpl to this superclass which we called UWEntityImpl.
    What I am wondering is what other ways is this functionality being used by you more experienced JHeadstart Developers? I am trying not to re-invent the wheel and utilize methods that have worked well for you.
    Of course I can think of toLowerCase, what else are you using?
    Thanks so much in advance.
    Mary
    U of Windsor
    Example Code:
    package its.sis.BusinessModel.model;
    import oracle.jbo.AttributeDef;
    import oracle.jbo.server.EntityImpl;
    public class UWEntityImpl extends EntityImpl {
    public UWEntityImpl () {
    // This code converts the inputted string to Uppercase in the database.
    // April 27, 2007 mb
    protected void setAttributeInternal(int i, Object object) {
    Object value = object;
    AttributeDef def = getEntityDef().getAttributeDef(i);
    if ("true".equalsIgnoreCase((String)def.getProperty("UPPERCASE"))) {
    if (value != null && value instanceof String) {
    value = ((String)value).toUpperCase();
    super.setAttributeInternal(i, value);
    }

    to)? I was curious because it seems to store them in
    a proprietary format, and before I get into moving
    hundreds more images I thought I would ask. I have
    2-300 gigs of usable space but Aperture seems like it
    could get huge with image adjustments.
    Hi Eric,
    I'm not a pro, but I wanted to clear up one of your issues. Aperture does not store or convert your files in a proprietary format. The image files that you store in the library will remain in their original format and untouched. The "Library" is a Mac OS X entity called a package. A package appears as a single file, but it's an illusion. If you ever needed to extract your image files, you can do so in the Finder (without Aperture) by option-clicking on the "Library" and selecting "Show Package Contents". Now you can navigate the file and folder structure to get at your originals. Of course, a much faster and easier way is to have Aperture export the originals. However, my point was to clear up the "proprietary" structure misunderstanding.
    Also--as was mentioned--each adjustment doesn't create a new image file. Every new version of your original is merely a list of instructions or "recipe" used to apply adjustments to the original to recreate the version for screen and print. This is done dynamically, on the fly. A finished version of the original is never created and saved to a file until you tell it to export a version. Thus, every version is a very small addition to the database. This is very unlike iPhoto, where every new version of a file creates a new image to store...all the more reason to move to Aperture.
    Hope that helps.

  • Is there any way to track what reports are actively running on BOE?

    Good Afternoon.
    I am looking for a way to track the names of what reports are currently being run on Business Objects. We are on Business Objects Enterprise XI R2 SP3 and from what Iu2019m aware, the servers can show the administrators how many connections and how many jobs are running, and the auditing command can track when a report has completed/failed (from what I understand), but nothing really tells us what reports are actively being run.
    The purpose of this is to measure impact for an emergency restart of the server, track down reports that are taking up system resources, and debugging issues involved with the SDK.
    Background: We have several reports hosted on Business Objects, both Crystal Reports and Web Intelligence.  These reports go to different universes and databases and use several different accounts depending on the project (no central generic accounts to the databases).  Sometimes when people are running several large reports (some being upwards of 1 million rows) the users will open one, leave it to run and go to open several others, killing our session limit and resources on the server. In addition, there have been times in development that restarts have been required but there was no way to tell what reports were running, just the number of them, and in several different spots (RAS, Page server, etc.).
    Wish list (If my first priority is answered, Iu2019m also looking for the following):
    - One to one associations of what reports are being run by what users.
    - A centralized location to see what reports are being run by users opening them and what reports are being run by users scheduling them.
    - The ability to u201Ckillu201D a report that is taking too long to run by a user.
    - Possibly an interactive dashboard showing the number of active reports verses the serveru2019s limit, what reports are set in queue, etc.
    - The u201Cstageu201D a report is running in, so if someone is running a report but its stuck at the prompt for a variable stage, querying data from the database, getting data back from the database, producing and processing the data to the screen, etc.
    If Iu2019ve missed something in the Business Objects tools or if someone knows of a way to extract this type of data from the Business Objects server (3rd party tool or custom fix) I would appreciate the assistance. Thank you for your time.

    Brian,
    I don't know if you tried using the Query Builder.
    The query below (or some modification of it) may be of some help.
    SELECT
    SI_SCHEDULEINFO, SI_NAME
    FROM
    CI_INFOOBJECTS
    WHERE
    SI_SCHEDULE_STATUS = 1
    The SI_SCHEDULEINFO.SI_SUBMITTER property in the query result will give you the BOUSER value of the user that submitted the job.
    SI_SCHEDULE_STATUS takes the following values:
    0     The job is currently being processed by the job server.
    1     The job completed successfully.
    3     The job failed. Check error message.
    8     The job is paused.
    9     The job has not started because dependencies are not satisfied (e.g. Events)

  • Are you running 4 GB?!

    With the recent AMD price dump I am planning to give my old Diamond some more umph with a x2 4600+ and some more memory.
    After reading several posts in here I am a hesitant to go for 4 GB. I have XP-64 so I should be able to see all the memory. But according to the posts it is a bit fifty-fifty if there will be an performance penalty with all 4 banks filled; DDR400->DDR333, 1T->2T etc
    Some posts states that the modules have to be single sided; but I have found nothing else on the net that backs that statement.
    And besides looking at the different manufactorers pages I can't find this information!!
    Been looking at:
    Corsair TWINX2048-3500LLPRO
    Corsair TWINX2048-4000PT
    So I need advice...
    Are you running 4 GB? at what speeds? which memory?
    Thanks

    Let me say again, and this is a proven fact:
    Adding more RAM when you comp is not using the RAM you currently has, does 0 for performance and in some cases slow the comp down.
    Take Care,
    Richard
    Very true...
    I seem to remember reading somewhere that BF2's "sweet spot" was at 2GB anyway. Any more, as Richard & others said, seriously impacts performance due to the memory controller limitation when all slots are occupied - that's an AMD thing, not mobo related.
    Allegedly it IS possible to run 4GB at rated speed but you need single sided RAM to do it - but when's the last time you saw a single sided 1GB RAM stick?
    You can always see if you need that extra RAM for anything else by observing the page file usage under the "Performance" tab in Task Manager while you're doing whatever. If it exceeds the amount of installed RAM, then the extra expense my be worth it in your case.

  • [Touch] What Case are you Usi

    I recently purchased the 40GB touch and I love it. I was a little upset that there aren't any cases out there which let you maintain fuctioinality or even see the display but I figured I'd give the supplied case a go.
    I quickly learned the value of the Lock switch after my carefully chosen selections were wiped out by the random button. Annoying but not deal breaking. 2 days into owning it and having filled the hard dri've, I'm wearing it on my belt. When I go to stand up, it falls off due to the poorly designed belt clip!! Now my $300 new toy is scratched and dented all along the top of the player :angry:
    SO, I'm posting to ask what cases are you using to protect/transport your 40GB Touch? Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

    Lack of case options was/is my frustration as well. I went this route for a case:

    For the URL string I use (asterisk)yahoo(asterisk)

  • Unable to shut down imac. dialogue - The Finder can't quit because some operations are still in progress. How do I determine what operations are still running?

    I have an iMac (Mid 2007) Intel with Mac OS Lion 10.7.4  For some reason I am unable to shut down my computer.  The dialogue box says The Finder can’t quit because some operations are still in progress.

  • Trying to capture what reports are being run and by what users

    Hi all,
    A few months ago, we upgraded to Discoverer 11g. One of the fixes I was hoping for was the updating of the query statistics table to see what reports are being run and who was running them.
    The problem is that most users are running Discoverer Plus but they are not "gracefully" closing Discoverer Plus via File -> Exit. They simply hit ths "X" to close the window. Oracle says that when users do this, their statistics are not written to the query statistics tables. I am finding that the EUL workbooks that we have installed are pretty useless due to this and really the only reason I have left the query statistics logging to be enabled. I am now seriously considering disabling this as it is very inconsistent (we do trim the query statistics table on a rolling 180 days of history via concurrent program that deletes stats older than 180 days).
    I am wondering if anyone here has done any logging of what workbooks are being run through some trigger? I see there is a EUL trigger function that we have in place, called post save documents, it records the workbook name, sql, etc. But it does not record the date that it was run. Has anyone modified this trigger so that every time a report is run it logs the report, sql, user and when it was being run to the table?
    I have an Oracle SR open, I've asked this in a couple different ways but they keep coming back to a canned answer of "if the user does not do File -> Exit, it will not log their session to the statistics table... blah blah blah".
    I hope I am making sense in what I am asking for.
    Thank you.
    Regards,
    Jerry

    Hi,
    I have never found the Discoverer stats to be very useful for some of the reasons you have given.
    I don't see that an EUL trigger will do what you want as unfortunately there is no open document trigger. So to get any information you have to rely on the user saving the workbook.
    One option you could explore is to use a DBMS_FGA (fine grained access) policy to audit some of the Discoverer query statements. For example, you can add a FGA policy to the EUL5_DOCUMENTS table that records all SELECTs on the table. That will show you which users are opening the workbooks you have in the EUL. Or you could add a policy to the views/tables used in the Discoverer workbooks and then audit the selects with an audit condition to audit only Discoverer sessions.
    How you do it depends on exactly what you want to audit.
