What type of hardrive would I use with bootcamp?

I've been using windows successfully with bootcamp! However I want to add more space. I dont mind deleting my bootcamp and starting over the only thing is I dont know if I buy a windows external harddrive or a mac one? Please answer, thank you.

As we both have said you can use any external hard drive on the Mac or the PC depending upon how you set up the drive.
1. Partition the drive GUID and format as Mac OS Extended, Journaled.
2. Re-partition the drive into two volumes. One remains as-is for use by the Mac.
3. Format the other volume for use on the PC: MSDOS (FAT) or ExFAT.
This can all be accomplished using Disk Utility. Before you make your external drive purchase you need to ask the vendor how the drive is pre-formatted. You want one that is already formatted for the Mac or has been formatted FAT32 for the PC. You do not want one pre-formatted for NTFS. I would recommend you get your external drive from OWC. You will find a choice of products that include both the hard drive and the enclosure. If you don't mind a little DIY then you can buy a bare drive and an enclosure separately. This saves a little money. If you have further questions at the time then talk to the staff at OWC's tech support. They are knowledgeable and helpful.

What type of repeater should I use with my new Airport Extreme?

what type of repeater should I use with my new Airport Extreme? Thanks.

If you want to repeat both bands of your dual band AirPort Extreme, another AirPort Extreme would meet these requirements.
If you only need to extend one of the bands that the AriPort Extreme provides, then an Airport Express would do that nicely.

Whats types of inputs can be used with DAQ 6527? (PNP or NPN)

I need to know what types of input device (PNP or NPN) can be used with a DAQ 6527.

Greetings,
The digital inputs of the 6527 require TTL signals. As long as your device, whether it be a pnp or npn transistor, outputs a TTL signal, it will be compatible.

What type of monitors can I use with the Mac Mini?

Hello,
I was thinking on purchasing a Mac Mini. I was not sure if the monitor I have at work with function with the Mac Mini. It is a: 20" ViewSonic Professional Series P815...
Does anyone know if this monitor will work with any Mac Mini? Is there an adapter for it?
Thanks.

It would be fine for them all - all minis have come with DVI video connectors and adapters to convert that to VGA, so aside from the possibility that the Viewsonic might suffer the greyish or dull screen problem that affected a small(ish) proportion of displays with the first generation mini, it should connect up using the adapter just fine, and be correctly recognized by the system.

What type of microphone should I use with Captivate 6

My IT guy wants me to select a microphone and/or headset to record the verbiage for the videos we intend to make. Do you recommend a microphone or headset? And which specific model do you recommend for the best quality?
I would appreciate any feedback, thanks!
Melissa

Hi Melissa. We have two different mics we use. The first is a headset mic - a Sennheiser PC323D. I costs about $150 list price. The other mic we use is a Rode Podcaster. I don't know its price, but it's considerably more. Both produce good results for recording narration in Captivate. My personal preference is the Sennheiser headset. It has a good frequency range and does a good job of reducing background noise, plus it maintains a constant position relative to my mouth, so I can move around and still sound good. The Podcaster is a fixed position mic. Other of our folks prefer its sound.
We also record our audio in small rooms with sound deadening foam on the walls. If you don't have that, at least find a quiet place. I've even recorded in my walk-in closet at home. The clothes do a good job of absorbing ambient noise and reflections.
I hope this helps.

What type of application would be useful ??

Hi Experts,
I have a requirement to develop an application to reset the pwd for SAP users on the system specified ie.R3 CRM or BW. I have to capture few information from the user like SAP user id , system and date of joining. After veryfying this data, Pwd will be reset for the user and will be sent through mail.
Now my question is, I need few suggestions as using what platform should i develop the same. WebDynpro Java , Guided Procedures or Offline interactive form or anything else other than these. Please suggest.
Regards
Ishita

Hi Ishita,
Web Dynpro java is simple to use in this case. Sending email after resetting the pwd can be configured in the backend.
Guided Procedures - We use generally where we need work flow and approvals.
Developing RFC applications is easier in WD Java than Interactive Forms.

Siva

What type of iviews can be used with WPC?

Can BSP, WebDynpro ABAP and JAVA can be added using WPC? Are there any limitations? How about Object Base navigation?

That's a very broad statement! Do you mean that you cannot deploy any web dynpro content at all, even if it is launched as a URL iView?
As I said, you need to try your own content.

What is the proper resolution to use with bootcamp and Windows 7 on a Macbook Pro Retina?

Hi All,
Let me start by saying I have read numerous articles and blog posts about choosing the correct resolution to use when running Windows 7 via Bootcamp on a MacBook Pro Retina (15"). I have not found the "silver bullet" (correct resolution). My eyes are sensitive to displays that are running in non-native resolutions (scaling).
When running the display in native resolution (2880x1800) everything looks great, except that icons and text are way too small to read. I have played with the zoom settings (150%, etc.).
When using any scaled resolutions, the display doesn't look as crisp and I get eye fatigue. I have also tried Windows 8, with the same results (no surprise).
I would love to use this Macbook to run Windows 7 because the hardware is great, but it looks like I may have to switch back to Dell/Lenovo/HP.
Is there a proper or "best practice" resolution to run at in this scenario? I want to give it one last try before putting the laptop away...
Thanks for any help!
Andrew

While I've never seen retina display, if you have not tried Hi-Contrast in Windows, you might find settings with it that are comforatable.
This is set with desktop rightclick->Personalize. You can vary desktop icon size in the View option above Personalize.
You can change most of what you see in Windows foreground/background colours & text with high contrast settings.
Also, text size in Windows browsers is variable with the Control an + and - key combo.
If the display you use is small maybe an external 24" or 27" monitor, if possible, would alleviate problem.
The attached pics are expadable by double click.

I have a new Mac with usb 3.0 ports. What type of cable do I use for an old usb 1 printer

I have a new IMac with usb 3 ports. What type of cable do I use for conncting on older usb 1 device?

AFAIK, use the USB 3.0 port to the printer. It should be backward compatible. If not, return the useless computer or get a new printer.

What XA JDBC driver should I use with Oracle 8i 8.1.6

I need to use an XA JDBC driver for Oracle 8i 8.1.6. I am using the driver in
a ConnectionPool in a TxDataSource for use by some entity beans using EJB 2.0.
I'm running WebLogic Server 6.0 sp2, EJB 2.0, Java 2 SDK 1.3.1 Server VM, Solaris
2.7, and Oracle 8i 8.1.6.
I know of three different Oracle XA drivers: WebLogic jDriver for Oracle XA, Oracle
OCI type 2 driver XA, and Oracle Thin tyoe 2 XA. Are there any other drivers
that I can use for Oracle 8.1.6? Which driver and which version should I use?
For example, can I use the Oracle 8.1.7 JDBC drivers with the Oracle 8.1.6 server,
or would the Oracle 9i drivers work with the Oracle 8i server? Which drivers
are faster, and which support more features? I assume that I should not use the
type 4 driver since I am not using an applet, but I don't know if there are bugs
in the OCI C library for Solaris or in the JDBC drivers that use it that prevent
XA from woking. Which version of the Oracle C OCI library should I use if I use
a type 2 driver?
Thanks,
Ross Goldberg

Hi,
I think you can't use the 8.1.6 thin driver for XA, you would have to
use the OCI driver or 2PC-enable your datasource. AFAIK this has been
changed for 8.1.7
Check http://e-docs.bea.com/wls/docs61/////jta/thirdpartytx.html.

Subject: Re: What XA JDBC driver should I use with Oracle 8i 8.1.6
I've asked this question before. This is the reply from Joe
Weinstein:
For reliability and JDBC 2.0 compliance, I recommend the
Oracle thin driver.
If not that driver, you should verify that a type-2 driver
actually does
deliver better performance, but then I would not have a
strong preference
between their type-2 and ours. Theirs may be faster, and JDBC
2.0 compliant.
Both are succeptible to OCI bugs, some of which only they can
fix, but we
listen.

What type of partition should I use? Range or Hash or ..?

Hi,
I am on Oracle 8.1.7.4 .
I have a table with 10 million rows and looks like its a good candidate for partitioning.
There is a varchar2 column and the data is evenly distributed on the string value. If I want to partition the table on that string value what type of partitioning can I use. How can I give the range, if I use range partition, on the string value ?
Can/Should I use hash partitioning?
I know that there is a list partitioning in O9i, but I am on 8i.
Please help.
Regards

</quote>
Table volume, in itself, is not enough to warrant partitioning â¦ hope you have some other reasons.
<quote>
â¦ but would like to partition the table on the mentioned varchar2 column, so that queries would be efficiant.
</quote>
Since you donât mention the actual query or class of queries, maybe it is worth mentioning that partitioning could speed up some queries but also can slow down a lot more other queries.
<quote>
So, how can i re-create the table partitioned on a varchar2 column
</quote>
No different than numbers or dates?
create table tp
( str   varchar2(10) not null
,fill char(20)      not null
partition by range(str)
( partition p1 values less than ('F')
,partition p2 values less than ('L')
,partition p3 values less than ('R')
,partition p4 values less than (maxvalue)
insert into tp
select substr(object_name,1,10), lpad('x',20,'x')
from user_objects
flip@FLOP> select * from tp partition (p2);
STR        FILL
F1         xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
GENERATE_R xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
IPSDEV.US. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxThe link to Tomâs article is fine â¦ it just happens to be one of the few threads heâs not mentioning that partitioning is not the magic fast=true mechanism â¦ look for some other articles on partitioning and youâll quickly discover his views on this subject.
There may be a case for partitioning â¦ but you havenât presented any reasonable justification for it â¦ so, why bother?

Not quite. Downloading the current version of NeoOffice is definitely not free (downloading the previous version is). The developers of NeoOffice (the most Mac-like of the StarOffice descendants) make a distinction between the application itself (which is free) and downloading it, for which they require what they are pleased to call a "donation" (since it's mandatory, I would call it a fee).

Would that include the report on the state of the US economy -- you know, the one President Obama asked you to deliver to the White House no later than 7AM on January 4? The one in two columns, with numbered paragraphs, table of contents, footnotes, mathematical formulae, 40 figures, 60 charts, quotations in Arabic, Japanese, and classical Greek, and 15 pages of references in APA style?
Grant Bennet-Alder is right -- "the real answer depends on what work you expect to do with it, and with whom you expect to do this work". There are dozens of word processors for Mac, from the venerable Word to the no less venerable Tex-Edit+. It would pointless to start listing them all, when many of them might be either too little or too much for your needs.

What type of Data target is used when the safety interval is used?

Hi ,
what type of Data target is used when the safety interval is used in generic delta in datasource?DSO or cube or cube?
Pls explain me ?
Thanks,
Nimai

It's up to your reporting requirement to go for dso or cube..
I prefer to having staging with DSO and then further reporting on Cube ..
It's always easier to manage when you have any changes to the cube .. you need not to extract data from R/3 .. if you have dso you can extract directly to cube
Another thing is -for any reason some of your records got corrupted so you can have full loads to dso which has the overwrite functionality... and sends delta records to cube. even in cube you can do selective deletion but we have to very careful to avoid double records in next loads

What type of pen do you use to take notes on a notetaking app like enotebook

What type of pen do you use on your ipad for a handwriting app like enotebook?

You want what's called a stylus. There are a huge variety of styli available; just make sure that the one you get works with iPad (pretty much all of them will say they work with iPad on the packaging). I personally just grabbed the cheapest one at Staples, but you can see a bunch of styli here: http://www.theverge.com/2012/4/10/2925937/best-stylus-ipad-review
