What will be the significance change I will experience with 2GB memory!

Currently, I am using a SONY VAIO with 256 MB memory. I honestly felt that things ran pretty smoothly. I've had many applications open at the sametime. However, I do recall working with video usually was a pain. So IMAC with 2GB is like 8 times the memory I have with my SONY right? Can anyone explain to me the significant change I will experience with 2GB of memory versus 256MB? I'm expecting for things to run even faster/smoother (if that's possible). As mentioned, I've been content with my Sony. But it's so outdated, that I needed something new.

the 256mb video card makes a huge differance for me using Maya and Photoshop. Rendering and filter effects are dramaticly faster. Maybe later i'll go with 3gigs of ram, but for now the gigs is working great.
if you're coming from 256mb of ram I think you will be hard pressed to find a single thing that isnt many times faster on a core 2 duo with 2 gigs of ram.
for example: on my prior G5 imac 1.8 ghz w/ 2gigs of ram it would take almost 3 hours to encode a full dvd to mpeg4 format. on my core 2 duo with 2 gigs of ram it took 35mins.
hope this helps!

Migration Planning: What will happen with clients when changing namespace?

Hello,
We are planning to upgrade our EX2010 enviroment to EX2013.
Sadly our namespace in EX2010 is right now owa2.domain.com. The name owa2 is coming from last migration between ex2003 and ex2010. I'd like to remove this minor flaw if possible.
But what will happen with all the clients and mobile devices which are right now bound to owa2.domain.com? Is it possible to change the name back to owa.domain.com without manual interaction with the clients?
Kind Regards

Hi ,
Based on my knowledge for services like pop,imap and active sync we need to have the manual interaction.Without manual intercation we cannot achieve this.
Same time we need to have the new name on the SAN certificate .
For owa users you can simply communicate the new url via email and then for internal outlook and external outlook connectivity we need to repair the profiles to force the autodiscover service to fetch up the new name.On my experience most of the times repair
will not help.So again your only hope would be reconfiguring the existing profiles.
Note : Most importantly before renaming the host A record on the external and internal dns all you need is to reduce the TTL value for the existing host A record on the name owa2.domain.com.So
that external and internal clients will not have the dns cache for a long period.
Anyhow we will wait for some expert inputs on this case.Because their ideas might be good and different than me.
Thanks & Regards S.Nithyanandham

What will happen with the code?

What will happen with the code below?
for (i=0; i<=10000; i++)
Object[] obj = new Object[5];
In every loop, a new Array of Object wll be created. Will the Array of Object created in the
current loop( for example, i=2001), eliminate the Array of Object created in previous loop
(for example, i=2000 or 1999)? How the memory is allocated in every loop?
Thanks.

Each time through the loop, an array of five Object references is created. A reference to this array is assigned to the reference variable obj, causing the previously allocated array to be unreachable (except the first time through the loop, if obj was originally null). The garbage collector will collect these unreachable arrays if the memory gets low.

If I buy a MacBook pro now, what will happen with it once the Lion OS makes it's appearance? Will I need to buy a new one again?

If I buy a MacBook pro now, what will happen with it once the Lion OS makes it's appearance? Will I need to buy a new one again?

Lion will run on most Intel machines. It will not run on the following machines:
MacBook Pro (sold before October 2006)
MacBook (sold before November 2006)
Mac Mini (sold before August 2007)
iMac (sold before September 2006)
It requires an Intel Core 2 Duo (or later CPU). Those machines listed above were all Intel Core Duo machines and with the exception of one of the Mac Minis, an Intel Core Solo. So we're talking 4+ year old machines. I have not tested Lion on a machine with anything less than 2GB of RAM.
Wikipedia has a pretty good public summation of what's known so far and it's quite accurate - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mac_OS_X_Lion
The biggest thing of note so far is that you cannot install/run Rosetta. Which maybe problematic for some users.

Testing Lightroom 5 - What will happen with my Lightroom 3 catalogue??

I am currently working with Lightroom 3. What will happen with my catalogue file(s) if I start the test of Lightroom 5? Is it possible to switch bak to Lightroom 3 after testing without restore of the "old" Lightroom 3 catalogue?

In short, Yes.
When you install and launch LR5 it will find your catalog(s) and when it tries to open them it will promt you to approve conversion from 3 to 5.
This will duplicate your catalog (not the assets) and leave your version 3 catalogs untouched.
If you want to return to a version 3 catalog for some reason then you will simply open it with LR3 which will remain on your machine.
Note that the newer features will not be available or readable by the version 3 catalogs. So if you make changes to a raw file using new tools those changes will not show when viewing the file in LR3 catalogs.
To properly "test" LR5 for your purposes I recommend you catalog new files and not the existing ones you have until you are comfortable with LR5. When you are comfortable, then upgrade your current catalogs.

I have an old imac 27' with OS 10.7. What will happen with lightroom 6 ?

I have an old imac 27 ' with mac os 10.7.
I try creative cloud and lightroom 5. It works perfectly... But what will happen with lightroom 6 ?

It's pretty simple. Lightroom 6 will not run on OS 10.7. See http://blogs.adobe.com/lightroomjournal/2015/01/update-on-os-support-for-next-version-of-l ightroom.html
You will need to either stay with Lightroom 5, or upgrade your operating system.

I have a 2nd generation Ipod.
I have it connected to my computer and see (my name) ipod on my screen.
Everytime I try to add a new song to the Ipod, this message comes up and I am not sure what to do:
The Ipod, (my name) is synced with another ITunes library on A74F65. Do you want to erase this Ipod and sync with this ITunes Library?
An Ipod can be synced with only one ITunes library at a time. Erasing and syncing replaces the contents of this IPod with the contents of this ITunes library.
Then it asks me if I want to delete and sync.
I am not sure what to do for fear of erasing everything I have put on my Ipod.
I would appreciate if someone could help me out.

If I understand you correctly, you are trying to use iTunes to play the Music in your iPod but which is not in your itunes library. I don't think Apple design iTunes for use in your way. As to put and play music in iPod, the music has to be in iTunes first, so you play music in the iTunes music Library. the window with Ipod music is just to show you which music are already in the Ipod, in case you want to Manually Manage your huge music library.
Here is the iPod/iTunes manual from the Apple Support Site.

i want to downgrade my 2011 mac mini server to mac os x i have the disks but the mini willl not reboot the apple changing to a circle with a line please help-

bpruse, I may be completely off-track for your issue, but I had a similar situation where I wanted to downgrade a Mac Pro from Server to plain OS X and it would not boot from the OS X install disk.
I was attempting to use a full-install OS X.6.x disc with an earlier SL version than that which originally came installed on the Mac Pro. After two or three hours of fiddling, I figured it out and used the discs that came with the system.
However, I don't know how that would work in your case if this is the mini server-version. I'm sure the disks would only have Server on them. Worse-case scenario, find out which X.6.x the OEM disc is installing and get an OS X disc with a new installer.
HTH.

So, when will the networks allow 99 cent tv rentals? I think the first Apple TV has so much more to chose from. What will happen with the Apple TV 2?

Anyone know what will be the outcome of Apple TV 2 as far as being able to rent shows from all networks? You can get just about anything on the first apple tv.

TV rentals were not and are unlikely to ever be available on AppleTV 1 (although I think in some ways it is still better than AppleTV2).
Other than for direct purchasing as opposed to renting I've not noticed that much difference in content availability but our content is relatively poor anyway in UK compared to US, especially in terms of pricing.

To what extent can the VM change order of execution

Hi
I've been reading a book named "Java Threads, Third Edition" from O'Reilly Media by Scott Oaks and Henry Wong. The book has a subchapter named "The Effect of Reordering Statements" where it states that the vm is free to change the order of executement, and that the order of operations can therefore not be used to ensure that a class/code is threadsafe. Ill just point a snip from the book to illustrate. The example code:
public int currentScore, totalScore, finalScore
public void resetScore(boolean done) {
    totalScore += currentScore;
    if (done) {
        finalScore = totalScore;
        currentScore = 0;
public int getFinalScore( ) {
    if (currentScore == 0{)
        return finalScore;
    return -1;
}It then suggest that these two runs can take place. Run 1:
- Thread1: Update total score
- Thread2: See if currentScore == 0
- Thread2: Return -1
- Thread1: Update finalScore
- Thread1: Set currentScore == 0
Run 2:
- Thread1: Update total score
- Thread1: Set currentScore == 0
- Thread2: See if currentScore == 0
- Thread2: Return finalScore
- Thread1: Update finalScore
My question now is if this info is correct, and if so, to what extent can the vm rearange the order of executement? Say I have this code (simplified example):
class SelectorThread implements Runnable{
private volatile boolean keepRunning;
public void run(){
   while(keepRunning){
       //Dosomething
        internalSelector.select();
public void stopIt(){
    keepRunning = false;
     internalSelector.wakeup();
}Would it then be possible for the vm to rearrange the code in stopIt(), thus making it possible to get a : "T1: wake up selector, T2: selector checks keepRunning, T2: selector goes back to sleep, T1: keepRunning is changed to false" scenario? Or is the above code "safe" to use?

Thanks for the answer :)
Am I then right in concluding that the stopIT() method I described is then not guarantueed to deliver the wanted result? (that the select thread exits the loop). If the vm-orders the statements as you show and the thread timing is a bit unlucky you could end up with:
Thread A (the one calling stopIT()) executes internalSelector.wakeup();
Thread B (the thread in the loop) wakes up
Thread B checks the while condition which still evalutes true and ends back with blocking on .select()
Thread A changes the value of keepRunning to false
Thereby possibly leaving threadB blocked "forever" if no other events occur.
Is this intepretation of the mechanicm correct? meaning do I need to change the implementation of the stopIt() method to assure it will produce the wanted result?

Will leopard work with the current 2.16ghz mac book with 2gb ram?

hey just a quick question new to the whole mac thing and was just wanting to know will i be able to upgrade to leopard on my white mac book 2.16ghz with 2gb of ram and 120 gb harddrive?
will it run smoothly?
thanks simon

The terms of use actually says:
"Speculations or rumors about unannounced products."
I would take that to mean questions and speculation about products which have been announced would be okay. Stuff like "Do you think Leopard will be able to do this or that" would seem to be okay.
I think Apple's intent is to keep speculation and/or rumors about products which may not even exist to a minimum.
Granted, no one, apart from developers under a NDA, have experience with Leopard... and even they don't know what the "secret" features are... but I think we're okay chatting about that stuff. They have a major OS overhaul coming in just a few months. I can't imagine they wouldn't expect people to chat about it... beyond what they have posted.

I use XPSP2. I use FF 3.6.22 because of Roboform. I'm reluctant to update FF because I don't know what will work with XP XP2 (won't be using XP3). Which FF ve

Roboform lied to me when I purchased it, promising that I would receive all updates AND upgrades "for life." Then they apparently colluded with FF to turn that into a lie, because they didn't grandfather-in the customers to whom they made this promise for free upgrades. I will never buy any version of Roboform again.
I still use FIREFOX 3.6.22 because that is the last version that my version of Roboform works with. I use XP SP2. Because I don't want Microsoft's spyware and controlware on my PC, I won't be using SP3 or any version beyond XP. I will be moving completely to Linux when what I have no longer serves my needs.
I can't upgrade Firefox to any version more recent than 3.6.22 because FF has not made it clear which is the highest version that works properly with XP SP2. I can't run any version that requires XP SP3 to run properly.

Hi there! Actually, Roboform works with modern versions of Firefox. Please update to Roboform 7.9.0, and update Firefox to version 22 immediately. Continuing to use Firefox 3.6 is leaving your computer at risk for MAJOR security holes, plus known stability and performance issues. Please update immediately.
Also, Firefox will work perfectly fine with XP SP2, but there is no reason why you shouldn't update XP to SP3
