What's your'e recommended iMac ?

i'm a indie game developer and designer,
i want to buy imac,
i have two choices,i5 late 2013(16GB ram,GTX 775M 1GB video card) and i7 late 2011(16GB ram,hd 6970 1gb video card) whats the best imac for my works?
i'm using adobe collection,unity and maya.
thank you.
p.s-sorry for my bad English.

I am gonna say neither.
For game developing you need both the i7 CPU, but you need a lot better performing GPU than a 1 GB VRAM chip.
VIdeo games need a lot of both CPU AND GPU power. RAM is a factor, too, to a lesser extent, but for games, it's all about fast processing and powerful graphics processing.
Try and find a Mac that has a fast i7 CPU and, at least, a 2 GB VRAM GPU. Some i7 IMacs had the option of a 4 GB VRAM GPU.

Backlight Bleed, What is Your Suggestion?

My iPad 2 has bad backlight bleed. My original iPad is gorgeous. I wouldn't need it perfect, but it's very prominent on my iPad 2.
What is your guys recommendation?
I'm a bit far from an Apple store to try to do an exchange, and I'm a bit nervous they are all like this.
Many thanks.

Apple store swapped mine with a new one already and it's still has the same issue. When I called Apple I talked with a supervisor or something he tried to ******** with me that it's very normal for iPad 2 to have this problem it's just its nature, so I told him that my Ipad 1 LCD's doesn't has this issue at all. he said that iPad 2 has a different design that iPad 1 which make iPad 2 thinner so this is what to expect. so I told him that (which is the truth) I bought 2 iPad 2 on launch date one for myself and one for my friend, but my friend's iPad 2 doesn't has this problem at all, so he made appointment for me with Apple store in The Grove, Los Angeles and my genius guy tried to ******** too that it's normal because all the iPad 2 in his store has the same backlight bleeding too! so do all of his friends and his manager's iPad 2, but he said that he will order a new one for me anyway but it's most likely that it'll still has the same problem. I'm so ******!

Thinking about getting a new iMac to use as the main computer. Has anyone done this? What is your experience and recommendations?

We have a 2009 MBP, 2010 MBP, 2011 MBA, an IPAD 2, and several ipods. Currently, my 2009 MBP is the main computer, holding all the music and pictures. This has used up the majority of the available storage and definitely slows it down some. I do back up the full computer to a backup drive and also remove the large movie files to another external drive. I'm thinking about getting a new iMac to use as the main computer. Has anyone done this? What is your experience and recommendations?
I look forward to all responses.
Thanks,
Brad

Thanks for your response. I look forward to hopefully learning something new here.
A good share of my music was added via my CDs, but now everything is added via itunes and occasionally amazon. Almost all my pictures and video are added through my cameras via iphoto although I have added some with the 'add image to iphoto library' function also.

I recently upgraded by iMac iOS to Yosemite, and I find that my best buy provided Trend Micro stopped working. Question, what security software is recommended, if any for an iMac. Thanks

I recently upgraded by iMac iOS to Yosemite, and I find that my best buy provided Trend Micro stopped working. Question, what security software is recommended, if any for an iMac. Thanks

Uninstall Trend Micro software. It is not needed and could prevent your computer from operating properly. If there is no uninstaller for the software, then see the following:
Uninstalling Software: The Basics
Most OS X applications are completely self-contained "packages" that can be uninstalled by simply dragging the application to the Trash. Applications may create preference files that are stored in the /Home/Library/Preferences/ folder. Although they do nothing once you delete the associated application, they do take up some disk space. If you want you can look for them in the above location and delete them, too.
Some applications may install an uninstaller program that can be used to remove the application. In some cases the uninstaller may be part of the application's installer, and is invoked by clicking on a Customize button that will appear during the install process.
Some applications may install components in the /Home/Library/Applications Support/ folder. You can also check there to see if the application has created a folder. You can also delete the folder that's in the Applications Support folder. Again, they don't do anything but take up disk space once the application is trashed.
Some applications may install a startupitem or a Log In item. Startupitems are usually installed in the /Library/StartupItems/ folder and less often in the /Home/Library/StartupItems/ folder. Log In Items are set in the Accounts preferences. Open System Preferences, click on the Accounts icon, then click on the LogIn Items tab. Locate the item in the list for the application you want to remove and click on the "-" button to delete it from the list.
Some software use startup daemons or agents that are a new feature of the OS. Look for them in /Library/LaunchAgents/ and /Library/LaunchDaemons/ or in /Home/Library/LaunchAgents/.
If an application installs any other files the best way to track them down is to do a Finder search using the application name or the developer name as the search term. Unfortunately Spotlight will not look in certain folders by default. You can modify Spotlight's behavior or use a third-party search utility, EasyFind, instead.
Some applications install a receipt in the /Library/Receipts/ folder. Usually with the same name as the program or the developer. The item generally has a ".pkg" extension. Be sure you also delete this item as some programs use it to determine if it's already installed.
There are many utilities that can uninstall applications. Here is a selection:
    1. AppZapper
    2. AppDelete
    3. Automaton
    4. Hazel
    5. AppCleaner
    6. CleanApp
    7. iTrash
    8. Amnesia
    9. Uninstaller
10. Spring Cleaning

Your What are Your Recommended TextPad Embellishments

As a long-time TextPad user I've been quite impressed with the editor's amazing and powerful features and is why I have been feeling lately that the ESTK is coming up a little on the short end as I begin this journey into writing attempting to write ExtendScript /JavaScript for InDesign.
With Theunis's compiled CHM help file as an added tool available from TextPad, I may try scripting away from the ESTK, but will miss ESTK's visual enhancement of the code.
There are so many add-ons available to the TextPad user to use, and as many of you have traveled this road already; what are your recommended clip libraries, macros and syntax definitions that would be worthwhile to the aspiring InDesign script writer?
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
Kelly
PS. Thanks to Theunis (aka Jongware) for making the CHM available to this community!

You're welcome, Kelly!
Personally, I use TextPad "as is", as it already does a great job on syntax highlighting Javascript. Actually I cannot remember if it did this natively, or if I had to download it somewhere -- have been using it for years like this. The only thing I added was a hotkey to the CHM help file (instructions to do so are in TextPad's Help on running external files).
But I'm as curious as you: does anyone else have suggestions to further enhance TextPad?
On the same: on my Mac I use TextWrangler to code. Are there any useful additions for that as well?

What is your recommendation to improve data export time - MaxL?

We have scheduled data export for backup everyday using MaxL and takes 2 hours and would like to decrease it to 30 min or less.
What is your recommendation?
1. Hot back-up
2. Parallel Calc (if possible)
3. Copy DB files on Unix box.
4. ???
Environment 9.3.0.1
Thanks in advance!

CL,
I have done the following and my results are very encouraging.
With 1 ExportThreads:
0 lvl     9.40 min     2.8 GB
All lvl     123.00 min     2.8 GB
With 2 ExportThreads:
0 lvl     4.55 min     2.8 GB
All lvl     72.78 min     2.8 GB
With 3 ExportThreads:
0 lvl     3.32 min     2.8 GB
All lvl     50.5 min     2.8 GB
With 4 ExportThreads:
0 lvl     2.56 min     2.8 GB
All lvl     36.8 min     2.8 GB
Only issue with exporting 0 level data is aggregation. But it is a small inconvenience than taking long to export data that we very rarely need.

I downloaded a job application with Adobe. What is your suggestion on editing it? What is the best way on my iMac?

I downloaded a job application with Adobe. What is your suggestion on editing this? What is the best way or best program? Thanks!

Simply, export the data from this esy share system to standard formats like jpeg, making sure to preserve all metadata on the way. How to do that? YOu'll need to post on a Kodak forum I'm afraid.
Then copy the files to the Mac and import them.

What's wrong with my iMac G3?

What's wrong with my iMac G3?
Ok. I'm going to attempt to be as thorough as possible on this one. When I first got my iMac G3, it was stated to be non working. I got it from freecycle. The lady who provided my with the machine said that "one day it just wouldn't turn on". So, I still took it home. After I set it up, it turned on and booted into Mac OS 8.6 no problem. After about two days of using it, I turned it on again and it said something about "finder could not be started because draglib-setdragimage (or something like that) could not be found." It gave me a restart button, which I clicked. After about a day of messing around with it, I found that holding the shift key to disable extensions would allow it to boot properly. I decided to re-install 8.6. However, the cd was not recognized (perhaps because it was an ISO, not DMG). So, I proceeded to install panther. The first time it booted with the panther cd (and ever since), there has been no startup chime. It also will only get to the apple logo, without the spinning thing, where it freezes. Only the button on the keyboard works to start it up. And, occasionally it will boot into open firmware. I don't know what to do from here. I can still boot into os 8.6 with extensions off.
Help?
Thanks so much in advance,
-Don

And, occasionally it will boot into open firmware.
Seems odd to me. All by itself? Did you press any keys?
I don't know what to do from here. I can still boot into os 8.6 with extensions off.
Most likely, you have a bad extension. They are in a folder called extensions What you need to do is create a new folder and move extensions to this folder. Move extensions to the folder in groups. try 1/2 first. Move back & forth between folders. See which extension is causing the problem. command + n to create a new folder
verify that you have the correct firmware.
Figuring out what level of firmware you have?
1) Mac OS 9.x or 8.x, you need to use the Apple System Profiler.
Apple -> Apple System Profiler
2) Mac OS X, use the System Profiler.
Apple -> About This Mac
click on the More Info... tab
click on Hardware
read the Boot ROM Version
3) Open Firmware, boot into Open Firmware.

What are Best Practice Recommendations for Java EE 7 Property File Configuration?

Where does application configuration belong in modern Java EE applications? What best practice(s) recommendations do people have?
By application configuration, I mean settings like connectivity settings to services on other boxes, including external ones (e.g. Twitter and our internal Cassandra servers...for things such as hostnames, credentials, retry attempts) as well as those relating business logic (things that one might be tempted to store as constants in classes, e.g. days for something to expire, etc).
Assumptions:
We are deploying to a Java EE 7 server (Wildfly 8.1) using a single EAR file, which contains multiple wars and one ejb-jar.
We will be deploying to a variety of environments: Unit testing, local dev installs, cloud based infrastructure for UAT, Stress testing and Production environments. **Many of our properties will vary with each of these environments.**
We are not opposed to coupling property configuration to a DI framework if that is the best practice people recommend.
All of this is for new development, so we don't have to comply with legacy requirements or restrictions. We're very focused on the current, modern best practices.
Does configuration belong inside or outside of an EAR?
If outside of an EAR, where and how best to reliably access them?
If inside of an EAR we can store it anywhere in the classpath to ease access during execution. But we'd have to re-assemble (and maybe re-build) with each configuration change. And since we'll have multiple environments, we'd need a means to differentiate the files within the EAR. I see two options here:
Utilize expected file names (e.g. cassandra.properties) and then build multiple environment specific EARs (eg. appxyz-PROD.ear).
Build one EAR (eg. appxyz.ear) and put all of our various environment configuration files inside it, appending an environment variable to each config file name (eg cassandra-PROD.properties). And of course adding an environment variable (to the vm or otherwise), so that the code will know which file to pickup.
What are the best practices people can recommend for solving this common challenge?
Thanks.

HI Bob,
As sometimes when you create a model using a local wsdl file then instead of refering to URL mentioned in wsdl file it refers to say, "C:\temp" folder from where you picked up that file. you can check target address of logical port. Due to this when you deploy application on server it try to search it in "c:\temp" path instead of it path specified at soap:address location in wsdl file.
Best way is re-import your Adaptive Web Services model using the URL specified in wsdl file as soap:address location.
like http://<IP>:<PORT>/XISOAPAdapter/MessageServlet?channel<xirequest>
or you can ask you XI developer to give url for webservice and username password of server

What is up with my iMac?

So here is what is happening to my iMac, (by the way its a power g5 non iSight leopard OS)It began to freeze and slow down , got the grey screen and would not boot up again. Tried all of the combination of command + keys available, nothing. Tried target mode, etc, pretty much tried it all, moved to beleiving that my hard drive had fried, I replaced it.
Placed the original dvd and booted into it, after a very long time, and I do mean long time, I was able to get into disk utilities, also the old hard drive, the one I thought was dead, I put into a slay and pluged it into the mac.
Disk utilities saw my newly installed drive, and saw my old drive, I proceeded to do a scan and fix on the old drive and thought it would all be okay. Went back installed my old drive and removed my new drive, since I thought that the problem had been solved, but nope. I was unable to boot into the mac again, so I went into it again and replaced the hard drive again, with the new one, and booted with the original dvd.
Once inside the installation I did the disk utilities, and tried to format the drive, erase the drive , but nothing it gave me an error and was unable to install the os.
Does anyone one have any idea what is going on? I am pretty certain that the hard drive is not the cause, but what can it be?
Anyhelp appreciated!!

You can't format it before putting it in the Mac, I just wondered if you had bought one which came already Windows formatted, many drives do. Did Disk Utilities from the install disk come up with any errors? Do you have DiskWarrior or TechToolPro?
It could be that your logic board had failed, but give resetting both your PRAM and SMU a go.

What is the maximun recommended number of probes, rservers, server-farms

Team,
What is the maximun recommended number of probes, rservers, server-farms, class-maps, policy-maps per context on an ACE module?
Regards,
John...

John,
A practical limit on ACE module is 4k each for probes, serverfarms, class-maps & policy-maps. Rserver instances can be up to 16K. These limits represent total per system. They may exist all in a single context if desired. These numbers will vary based on specific configuration requirements.
For more specific guidance please reach out to your account team or technical marketing engineer.
