What screen sizes are best to use?

What screen sizes are best to use. Looking at the responsive design in Captivate 8, the screen sizes do not make a lot of sense. I am not sure if I am misunderstanding them or not. The tablet size is 768 x 627, yet an iPad 4 is 1024 x 768. The Samsung is equally different. The same goes for the phone size. Am I missing something? I would like to use my phone in landscape mode.
Thanks

You can edit the break points in Responsive Design. It is not the real resolution of the devices that is important, but the browser resolution. Moreover you have to take into account extra space like for the playbar (45 pixels).
To check the resolutions, this site can be useful: http://viewportsizes.com/
You'll see that for most smartphones the browser resolution is much smaller then the real resolution of the device. I have a HTC One, 1920x1080 but the browser resolution in Portrait has only a width of 360. in Landscape 640.
There are so many devices around, you'll have to choose the ones you are aiming at. It is a real jungle, sorry. Not to speak of the different browsers with each a different support of HTML5.

What wireless headphones are best for use with ipad2?thanks

I am a computer newbie?!!! I had not owned a computer device of any any sort.( I know in this day and age) and I received an iPad 2 as a gift. I think my friends were tired of me asking to use their computer to receive e mail ,etc. Any way, questions galore!!! I do not even have an Internet connection in my house!! I have Dish TV and a cellular phone. NO land line . Which company is best ? Verizon ( I don't get FIOS)Optimum or? I am overwhelmed with claims of faster speeds etc. I know I have to buy a wireless ROUTER. Which is best. ALSO which WIRELESS HEADPHONES for when I go to the gym? Thanks for your help!!!!

Wireless headsets, in my opinion, never work as well as I would like. Motorola makes some designed for athletic use. I'd check reviews on Amazon. You're really going to take an iPad to the gym?!?

What Router Would Be Best If Using Two PlayStation 3 Consoles?

What Router Would Be Best If Using Two PlayStation 3 Consoles That Are Connected To The Same Broadband Internet Connection? My Two Cousins Aren't Able To Connect To The Same Lobby Party Together As I Am To Play COD MW3. They Have Tried Having Both Consoles Hardwired to the Router But The Same Problem Of Having Only One Of My Two Cousins To Be Able To Connect To The Lobby Party While The Other One Can't Connect. Thanks For Any Help With This Issue.

My router easily handles 2-4 PS3s at a time during Uncharted multiplayer and its a few years old. Its a Linksys Wireless N (model no. WRT150N). Like I said, its not the newest but it handles all our consoles just fine. My internet speed is 24mbps, maybe your cousins need a faster connection? Hope this helps.

What screen size for revealing scroll effects?

Hello,
I'm currently designing a website in Muse for a motion graphics company which has quite a few scroll effects. As the user scrolls down (it's a one page site), elements either fade or animate (edge animate files) onto the page.
I'm designing it on a 27" screen but of course a lot people will be using smaller screens and laptops so I was wondering what everyone uses as a standard active screen area?
If I keep all the animations happening in the top 700px, I'm left with a big empty space below when using a larger screen. Does anyone have any suggestions?
(I will be doing a tablet and phone version once I've nailed this).
Thank you

I would suggest you to go with browser width animation so that it should render same with all screen sizes.
Thanks,
Sanjit

What screen resolution are all of you designing for?

I realize a liquid layout is ideal, but even liquid layouts have an "ideal" resolution the design is built around.
What minimum width are you guys designing for? (ie, 960px for 1024px resolutions)

Depending on the design I use anywhere from 950 to 1000 pixel widths.

Thanks for your answer. Mind if I pick your brain regarding these choices?
By my calculations (using latest Windows + latest IE, which represent the majority) the window border occupies 8px on each side.I just measured it a few seconds ago.
The scrollbar occupies an additional 17 pixels on the right side.
Total : 33px of the horizontal viewable area is taken up by the browser.
This would mean that when catering to 1024 screens - which you clearly are - the sweet spot would be 1024 - 33 = 991 pixels max with a borderless design (ie, margin:0 on the body).
Knowing this, why would you ever use 1000px wide? If you were catering to 1280, then you'd want 1280 - 33 = 1247 pixels max. Or are you referring to centered designs that don't scroll?
Is there a conscious and calculated reason why you'd limit yourself to 950px when you've got 40 more to work with, or why you'd unnecessarily force a horizontal scrollbar on all 1024 screen resolutions by designing @ 1000px?

Is there anyway to tell what Window Size a user is using?

I'd like to write a little class to only display one full screen worth of data at a time (rather than spamming the user with data that they must scroll back through). Is there a way to get the window size the current user is using?
(If it makes any difference this is a console program and not an applet)
Thanks.

Basically if you are extending JFrame, Frame or Window you get call getWidth() and getHeight() to get the screen size as these classes all extend the Component or JComponent class where these methods are defined. So for example if you have code like follows (application):
class myClass extends Frame
public static int screenWidth;
public static int screenHeight;
public myClass()
    super("FRAME TITLE");
    screenWidth = getWidth();
    screenHeight = getHeight();
}hope that is a little more clear

Applications in dashboard not opening/what movie formats are best?

what movie format is best to download onto macbook? None of my usual applications (vuze, VLC, quicktime player) are responding/opening! I've always had trouble happening upon congruent formats, so that's my first question. Secondly, vuze which I usually use, has just stopped opening. The 'vuze downloads' window will open, but none of the movies in it will open, and the application itself won't pop up with its usual big window. The little vuze icon is still in my dashboard, though. I tried re-starting vuze, but it didn't do anything. QuickTime player won't respond either. HELP!!

There has got to be a backup product out there to allow a system to be backed up to a NAS or Drive attached to a server that is as simple as CrashPlan or TimeMachine but that actually work and don't cost $50/month for a system.
Thoughts?
CrashPlanPROe, the enterprise version, is $60 per year per client, not $50 per month, so it may be worth looking into. It's what we run and it's been working very well for us, though you need a central server to run the software. That server can be Windows, Mac OS X, Linux or Solaris, any of which will work with any of the supported clients:

We tried Retrospect and had to return it for the limitation I mentioned above.

Which Laptop Screen resolution is best for use with Onlocation?

The choices are:
WUXGA 1920x1200
WSXGA+ 1680x1050
WXGA+ 1440x900
WXGA 1280x800
Also is a glossy (glare type)
or a mat finish screen better?

I should have mentioned earlier that the screen size of the proposed notebook is 15.4" and that most of my video work is in doors (live theater).

What screen resolutions are available on His-res 15" MacBook Pro?

Hi. I can see in the apple web site specs what the various screen resolution settings are for the standard resultion, 1440x900,
15" MacBook Pro (1440x900, 1280x800, 1152x720, etc.)
But what are the settings available for the 15" MacBook Pro with the hi-res (glossy to be specific) screen?
I know the native resolution is 1680x1050. Are the other settings as for the standard res also available?
And while I have your attention, does anyone know what type of LCD panels are used on the standard and hi-res displays?
TN, PVA, IPS ?

What Comp Settings are Best/Flexible for Animated Tutorials 4 Multiple Devices laptop, iPad, and TV?

I'm making animated tutorials on a particular subject. I will have these on a website and want them to be viewable on devices ranging from laptops to iPads to TV to iPhones. I believe one approach to setting my Comp Settings for AE is to use a Preset like HDV/HDTV 720 which results in 1280x 720 pixels, 720 pixel resolution, square pixels, and a 16:9 ratio. The advantage, as I understand it, is that it will work for HDTV and that, if I use something like YouTube, horizontal letterboxing will be the result in a 4:3 format (of course, with black lines top and bottom).
Unfortunately, this seems to make great sense if the content is, say, from video photography of scenes. My content is animation and enough text at times to make me think horizontal letterboxing will make that text too small to read... that I will sacrifice some content and quite a bit of readability in such horizontally letterboxed setups. Am I better off sticking with Comp settings at, say, a 4:3 ratio and accepting the "black pillars" on wide devices? If so, what should my resolution be and what should the absolute width and absolute height be in pixels? 640x480? 1280x960? Something else? My main concern hear is that I have enough pixels and resolution so that inages remain clear on TV.
Anything you can enlighten me on here will be greatly appreciated. Is there a great discussion/tutorial on this somewhere? Because I'm having the growing creepy sensation that the more movies I make, the more "fixing" I'm going to be needing to do when I start up my website. Please pull this thorn out of my paw! Thanks in advance!
I have a MacBook Pro with Snow Leopard... and CS5.5 Master Collection, so I have Media Encoder. I'm also on Lynda.com every day. So point me in the right direction and I'll attack.

Thanks Bogie san! This is a big help to getting me started. And the link got me a little farther into Media encoder as well as Group of Pictures, intra-frame, and inter-frame.
One more related question... which will no doubt look simple (minded) but have an answer fraught with complexity.
If you were me (don't panic!), and you're making animated tutorials in AE with lots of illustration (some created in Illustrator and some in After Effects) and a significant amount of text from time to time (e.g., sometimes there are several boxes with, say, five English words in them, plus some drawings in the same frame with the boxes so that, although the frames are not cluttered, I also do not have the option of extremely large font sizes)...
...AND you believe most of your users will view from laptops, from LCD desktop monitors, and from iPads and the like (not iPhones so much)... with HDTV being something you view as an option it would be "just nice to have" though not necessary...
...what parameters would you choose when you set up your AE files?
As a straw example, lets say I select 640 x 480 (4/3 pixel ratio) because I think, rightly or wrongly, that would be good on YouTube. Should I double each number, keeping the 4/3 ratio? Do nothing? Do something different? What about pixel resolution? Am I worrying about this too much?
And, yes, I did pay attention when you said, "That's not an After Effects topic." I'm just not saavy enough yet to know what that really means.
Thanks in Advance,
Road Quill

Which projectors are best to use with Keynote? I have twice had the same problem using the clients' equipment.

Some equipment has worked fine. But on 2 different occasions with 2 different projectors, I have had the same problem with not being able to view the presentor notes and the upcoming slide on the split screen on my computer. When I go to "play" mode then the audience screen and my screen are exactly the same. If I don't click "play" then the audience sees exactly what is on my computer screen (notes and all).
I am thinking of investing in my own equipment and want to be sure that whatever I purchase will eliminate this issue.
I have a Macbook Air with Thunderbolt. I last used a Thunderbolt to VGA cable for the most recent presentation and got through it without being able to see my notes. I need something easy to use that works the way Keynote is designed to work. (I have "Present on Secondary Display" selected under "Preferences")
Any suggestions? I would love to spend less than $500, but want a machine that is hassle-free, so I'm willing to go higher if necessary.
Thank you.

With the second display connected and powered on:
Apple > System Preferences > Displays > Arrangement: deselect mirror displays check box

What capture formats are available when using a Blackmagic Decklink 4K Extreme?

I will be capturing from a games console 1080p60 with Premiere in a Win7 environment and need a reasonable intermediate format for editing.
PC is high spec i7 with 32GB mem and SSD drives.
Thanks
Jean

I'm using cs6 and not capturing via decklink ...your specs here ..
http://www.blackmagicdesign.com/products/decklink/techspecs
but I like the mov wrapper with avid codec ( 10 bit 422 ) for stuff I'm doing on a win 7 PC . I would stay away from pro res cause that's apple stuff ( mac )...its good but win PC is not all that happy dealing with that stuff...
I would test some stuff using one bnc ( 422 ) and 2k ...just to see what you can get and how that workflow behaves with your software etc...
??? maybe someone here is using that card and can give you more exact info...

What email client is best to use withe apple

I use a pc but have had so many problems with yahoo email I want to change to whatever is most compatible with iphone.

Any standard POP or (preferably) IMAP mail server should work fine with an iPhone. However, if you're looking to change e-mail addresses to get away from Yahoo, I'd probably recommend GMail.
