Where's the Beef?

I'm getting Start Up Disk near full messages and I can't find what's taking so much space. I have been through my files and removed the big video files and pictures and I don't store music. It says my 1TB drive is almost full. My iPhoto library is 215GB and other than that I can't find anything to take up space. How can I get a look at where the hogs are or do I need some kind of defragmenting move like Windows?

Making a living with Dreamweaver; where's the beef?

Circumstances have put me in a situation where I need to put my Internet design/development skills to work as a self-employed person. My previous experience has always been in the corporate cubicle environment. For those of you here who are successfully self employed, where are some good places to look for information about making the right decisions and avoiding the mistakes? I found some highly recommended books for sale at Amazon, but noticed they're written for bricks-and-mortar entrepreneur types, not nerds with a service to offer. Tips?

Murray has offered some good suggestions. Here's a few more:
Register a domain and start a website for your nascent company. Make it as good as you can make it. Get business cards printed and spend a bit of time either getting a logo (having a great designer design it) or by doing it yourself. Find yourself a very good hosting company that answers its tech support phone 24/7 and prepare to set up a VPS with that company. VPSs tend to run $400 - $500 annually, but you can put loads of websites on them and charge the going annual rate for an hosted website for each one, pocketing the profit.
Join your local Chamber of Commerce. Go to Chamber meetups and, especially multi-chamber events. Hand out your business card and follow up. Learn to do a 30 second commercial about yourself and your company and tell people at these meetups exactly what you are looking for (eg: "This week, I'm looking for restaurants that need to put their entire menu on-line so that they can entice more to reserve").
If you don't own a copy of Dreamweaver, get one. Also get a copy of Photoshop. Experiment with your own website. learn to do things faster. I literally live in these two applications and do websites for small businesses.
I would try to learn either one server-side language (that is supported by your hosting company) or one client-side language (which ususally means Javascript) in the next year along with HTML and CSS. Be disciplined about learning new stuff.
Keep good books. I realize that you will find that your earnings are depressing at first and you'll want to not even balance your checkbook. Don't give in to that temptation. Every purchase you make for your business is a tax-deduction. Every mile you drive to see a client is, too. Record everything and keep everything together. See a CPA this fall to set yourself up to save money come tax time in April. You might consider using either Quicken or Quickbooks Pro -- but you should get a categories list from a CPA that you will use next year so that he or she will be prepared for the kinds of things you are spending money on.
Do not do a templated website and then do the same website for every client you come across. Make sure that what you do can be adapted to any kind of look you might want.
Realize that Dreamweaver "plugins" will save you lots of time, but never directly charge a client for one. Any plugin you purchase needs to work for several clients and one client ought not have to pay for the entire purchase, which is supposed to make you faster.
Realize that any technique done in any plugin also lives out there on the Internet. this includes drop-down menus, jQuery effects, image rotators, accordions and so on. The advantage of a plugin is to save you time so, if you are pressed for time, buy what fits your client's needs and try to make it pay you back with the next several clients.
Keep track of your hours spent on each client so that you know how long it takes to do a website. Then make sure you're making more than minimum wage when you quote one.
Do not do any website without a contract. Consult with a good attorney and set up your company and design a standard contract that you will have everyone sign before you start work. Always require a deposit for your work. Always insist on payment in full before you launch a website. I like my work, but I like my work for free not at all. My company is an LLC and that keeps anyone from going after anything I own, like my house, my car and so on. I have to pay an annual Business Entity Tax in my state, but it's an insurance policy that is more than worth it.
Now, I am certain my suggestions have all ready bankrupted you in purchases and fees. But I have fewer headaches because I set things up before I really knew what I was doing.
Now that I know a little more, I am very pleased to show it off a little.

Where's the data????? (said like the "where's the beef" lady) :)

I'm having some trouble with a network setup.
Sending box is a G4MDD w/10.3.9 receiving box G5 dual 2.0 w/10.4.
Had I not seen it with my own eyes I never would have believed it. But the sending box put up the progress bar and showed 644 megs of data going over. When we looked in the G5 one file (20.8 megs) actually made it.
So I didit again and the same progress bar report of 644 meg. But only 141 meg wound up in the G5.
The third time worked but.......... I can't have thing like this happen. What/where do I even begin???

DHCH controlled Gigabit ethernet. Both fileshare for two way traffic.
All the transfers I do involve a folder (drag and drop) with 30+ or more 18 meg files each.
Is it likely a cabling problem? I may have had "mis transfers" before to a windows box but didn't put two and two together till now. (If it is possible that windows 2000 would show a file icon that didn't transfer) ???

To paraphrase Clara Peller(Wendy's Where's The Beef lady).....where's the deals?

A few holiday seasons ago you guys spoiled us with game deals that were $20 or UNDER. When the @gamer magazine was having it's last hurrah we got not one but TWO free after coupon games(Spongebob Plankton something or other for 3DS, COD Ghosts PRESTIGE EDITION).
Even when @gamer was still a print magazine(which BTW I still never heard back from the publisher about being credited the YEARS I paid for with my GCU sub that I lost by it being cancelled altogether) we routinely received coupons that made games that were maybe a year old $5-15 at most.
Now since the elimination of the magazine and the addition of the 20% discount on new games it seems like the regular Gamer's Club offers are either on games that NEVER seem to get a sale price during the coupon's active period or if they do the coupons no longer stack with sale prices.
Not only that but the coupons are ONLY usable on BestBuy.com and by the time you stop getting the privilege of doing the touchstone two step on the phone lines with customer service any desire to fight for the discounts has waned.
It just seems like for the money the offers just aren't there anymore or if they are they're absolutely atrocious compared to what we early adopters had become accustomed to getting.

Greetings CheapestGamer,
As we've said numerous times before,we aren't able to provide details on upcoming sales or promotional events. Still, I'd encourage you to keep an eye on our weekly ad, BestBuy.com, and your inbox for future offers.
Thanks for your continued interest in the My Best Buy Gamers' Club program.

Where's the BEEF? Here's MINE!

Well here it is in black and white. I am guessing my iPod internally is having some serious issues now and again. And it is really annoying. Been doing it ever since I have gotten it. And I was wondering if Apple would give me a discount for a newer 4th gen or just replace mine for a small fee. Although I definately do not want this thing back, it has been nothing but trouble. And I reall have no need for the iPod Video's that are on the market. Anyone have any input, since apple's website is a maze of information.

ALright its a hard drive issue. I listen to it while I am exporting songs from my PC to the iPod and it spins then stops. And my PC reports errors. I mean I could attempt to give it a smack, afterall it is a hard drive but still it does it all to often and I was wondering if I would be able to get a newer one from Apple at a reduced cost. Not that I feel like spending even more money on this thing.

Where's the beef? I mean the audio...?

When I export a movie from FCP with audio (it gives me the option) and then import it to LT the audio channels do not appear. What am I missing?
Also, is there any upgrade for LT with newer Live Fonts and other stuff?
Thanks,
Carlos

There is no audio support in LT, never has been. You'll need to pop open the online manual and study what LT does and does not do and how to use sync markers for your audio hooks.
LT2 has a several new items and Motion comes with another bunch of cool animated fonts that appear in LT, too.

HP LaserJet Enterprise 500 551dn - where did the drivers go?

I go to the download page to download the drivers for this 551dn. I download all windows 7, 8, 8.1, 2008, 2012, so that i can put them on my print server. I downloaded them from here..
<http>//h20564.www2.hp.com/hpsc/swd/public/readIndex?sp4ts.oid=5081348&lang=en&lang=en&cc=lamerica_n...
when i get the file, lets say for windows 7/64bit, i choose...
HP LaserJet Enterprise 500 color M551 Printer Series PCL6 Print Driver (no Installer) 61.130.04.12834
24 Sep 2014 21.3
I get the file downloaded (LJEnt-color-M551-Drv-no-installer_12297.exe), i run it, get the security warning and Run. the file extracts - then POOF, the installer is gone.
where did the files go? They aren't on the root of the C: drive, a folder/files were not created on my desktop, no files or folder created in my downloads folder.
I was never asked for a file save location.... ??? really? is this this basic stuff?
Where are the files? this $$$ printer is a brick until i get drivers!
Thanks!
Jason
UPDATE- I FOUND THE FILES!!
First of all, HP... i'm not impressed.
All the files for all the drivers are in a series of temp folders...
C:\Users\-myusername-\AppData\Local\Temp\3\7zS4A73
really?
hope this helps someone.

There is no change to this problem after 6 months since the last post. Put simply, and as stated in the previous posts, there is no way to scan a document and receive the image on your PC. If you are working with graphics for any length of time or want to create an image for inclusion as an image in a document or web page using this piece of equipment will not allow you to do so.
Great shame as every other function works well - it cannot be beyond the wit of HP to include a Windows application that enables you to scan an image, receive it in the software you are using at the time (e.g. Outlook, Word, Photoshop...) and use it in your work.
HP Printers several years older than this £1000+ Enterprise printer were able to do this simple job and have done so for a great many years. Just being able to use Microsoft's Fax and Scan would be start.

Sometimes I can't get out of Day view in iCal. There is no where on the screen to select month view, even when I close it out and go back into iCal.

Sometimes I am locked in "day" view in iCal. There is no where on the screen to choose "month" view, even when I close it out and open again. Tapping anywhere on the screen or scrolling doesn't help.

Give this a try:
1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
User/Home/Library/ Preferences folder.
2 - delete the contents the following folder: User/Library/Containers/com.apple.iPhoto
3 - reboot, launch iPhoto and try full screen again.
NOTE: For Mavericks and Yosemite, go to your Home folder and use the View ➙ Show View Options menu to bring the this window:
where you can check the Show Library Folder checkbox.

Where did the Stream 7 drivers go?

The support page for downloading drivers for the HP Stream 7 tablet (any model) has disappeared from the HP website.
Navigating to the HP Stream 7 support page, Selecting "Software and Drivers", then "Go directly to software and drivers page", Operating System "Windows", then Version "Windows 8.1" (the only choices), then clicking the Update button, gives a message "No software or drivers are available for this product with the selected operating system. Please make a different selection, or visit the product homepage. " This happens using Firefox, IE 11, or Chrome.
These drivers have been missing for at least a few weeks, and multiple forum users have also had no luck finding them. Before that time the drivers seemed to come and go randomly, but they've stayed missing now for weeks. One dorum user has posted direct FTP links to the drivers, and they might be the latest version, but not really sure.
Where did the drivers go, HP?

This is for the 5701 as of a few days ago.

What/Where is the Value Lifecycle Manager (VLM)

What/Where is the Value Lifecycle Manager (VLM)
I was just reviewing an ASUG presentation from Soledad Alvarado Ganzhorn of SAP NetWeaver Product Management at SAP Labs. It describes a value lifecycle manager tool that includes:
&#56256;&#56457;Value Discovery content includes: Interview Questions, Pain Points, Best Practices, Solution Enablers, Value Drivers & KPI's, and Data Requests
&#56256;&#56457; A Knowledge Management Platform Retrieve and Enter content
&#56256;&#56457; A Highly Flexible and Customizable Business Case Building and Reporting Platform
&#56256;&#56457; Used by Value Engineers, Solution Engineers, ISG, Partners and others
Is anyone aware if SAP is using this tool already? Will customers get access to it? This sounds like a replacement for the business case builder which I haven't seen either. It would be nice if customers had access to these sorts of discovery tools. Since we don't utilize SAP consulting, we are often not able to access this content as we initiate new initiatives. It would be nice to have access as it seems like we are internally selling their software for them.

The tool is available. It is at the following URL:
https://sapvalueengineering.com/VLM2/client.page
SAP has nominated select Partners that have access to the tool. You can probably check with the SAP partner relationship manager in your organization to see if you have access to this tool.

Photoshop CC video: Where is the audio flyout menu? I want to set the audio level of a clip but when I click the little triangle the flyout only offers Motion options, no audio.

I created a video clip by ripping from a (non-protected) DVD & brought it into Photoshop CC for editing. I want the audio to fade in & out but cannot find any audio controls!
The info I've found online says to click the little triangle at the right end of the clip & I should get the audio flyout menu, but all I get is a menu with "Motion" options.
Please help!! Where are the audio options I see on the tutorials?
Thanks ...

The audio was indeed in there; I could hear it! But I found the fix:
Some Googling revealed that the timeline video sprites should appear *blue*, not purple as in my screenshot. I'm not sure how that happened, but I scrapped the project & restarted from scratch - and though I can't say what I did differently, this time the video sprite in the timeline was blue, and the audio flyout was there! So it's all good, thanks!

When I import files (copy from jpeg or copy as DNG from raw, where is the full size original stored?

I have the photos go here file, does LR5 put the untouched original there? Do I need my own file for originals and if so, how does LR5 know where to find the full size original? I have everything working but don't understand where my untouched originals go after import. Say I import off my card to My Pictures/Lightroom Catalog/ Photos go here ..... are my originals there? What if I erase my card now, do I only have partial size negatives basically? I don't understand why LR5 didnt put in an originals do here file that imports the full photo to a stock folder. I am so confused I am about ready to throw out LR5. I even bought your instructional DVD and it doesnt make where the original files location clear, it just repeats that LT5 does NOT import the original, just thumbnail and instructions, where is the program getting the photo when I double click to open it , or am I only seeing a lower resolution version of the photo and the full res is now gone because I formatted the card?

When you import photos, you can choose "Copy" or "Move" or "Copy as DNG", and then select a destination folder on your hard disk. This happens on the right hand side of the Import dialog box. So your original files go to this destination folder.
Alternatively, if your photos are already on your hard disk, you can import by choosing "Add" and the original photos remain in the existing location.
If you're not sure where the photos are, open Lightroom, go to the Library Module, and on the right hand side is the Metadata Panel. Set the dropdown to "Default", and it will show you where your photos are stored. Alternatively, you can right-click on any photo and select "Show In Finder"/"Show in Explorer" and Lightroom will take you to the exact folder where the photo is located.
So, bottom line, you are in total control of where the originals go, and if your forgot where you put them, or made a mistake, you can always find out where they are.
What if I erase my card now, do I only have partial size negatives basically?
If your import was successful, then the photos are now stored on your hard disk. So you have the full size original for Lightroom to work with.
it just repeats that LT5 does NOT import the original, just thumbnail and instructions
Lightroom does import the original, which means, in Lightroom jargon, that it records the location and metadata about the photo; in other words, Lightroom knows where the photo is, but Lightroom NEVER contains your photo, your photo is ALWAYS stored on the hard disk.
Because Lightroom now knows where your photo is located, it is important that you not manage your photos (move, edit, rename, delete) outside of Lightroom. Photo managements tasks now must be done in Lightroom. (There are advanced methods that let you manage your photos outside of Lightroom, but these would be NOT RECOMMENDED for beginners)

Where is the hyphen (-) on the apple TV? I am trying to set up my network and there is a hyphen in the password for the network

Where is the hyphen on the apple TV? I am trying to set up my network and there is a hyphen in the password for the network

A few options to try:
They hyphen should be next to the + on the character map.
If you are still having issues, provided your ATV software is up to date, you can now connect an Apple Wireless Keyboard through bluetooth connections.
Change your network password so it does not use a hyphen
Good luck!

Apple maps has received a poor performance rating just after introduction of the iPhone 5. I am running google maps app on the phone. Siri cannot seem to get me to a specific address. Where does the problem lie? Thanks.

Apple maps has received a poor performance rating just after introduction of the iPhone 5. I am running Google Maps app on the phone. SIRI cannot seem to get me to a specific address. Where does the problem lie? Also can anyone tell me the hierarchy of use between the Apple Maps, SIRI, and Google maps when the app is on the phone? How do you choose one over the other as the default map usage? Or better still how do you suppress SIRI from using the Apple maps app when requesting a "go to"?
I have placed an address location into the CONTACTS list and when I ask SIRI to "take me there" it found a TOTALLY different location in the metro area with the same street name. I have included the address, the quadrant, (NE) and the ZIP code into the CONTACTS list. As it turns out, no amount of canceling the trip or relocating the address in the CONTACTS list line would prevent SIRI from taking me to this bogus location. FINALLY I typed in Northeast for NE in the CONTACTS list (NE being the accepted method of defining the USPS location quadrant) , canceled the current map route and it finally found the correct address. This problem would normally not demand such a response from me to have it fixed but the address is one of a hospital in the center of town and this hospital HAS a branch location in a similar part of town (NOT the original address SIRI was trying to take me to). This screw up could be dangerous if not catastrophic to someone who was looking for a hospital location fast and did not know of these two similar locations. After all the whole POINT of directions is not just whimsical pasttime or convenience. In a pinch people need to rely on this function. OR, are my expectations set too high?
How does the iPhone select between one app or the other (Apple Maps or Gppgle Maps) as it relates to SIRI finding and showing a map route?
Why does SIRI return an address that is NOT the correct address nor is the returned location in the requested ZIP code?
Is there a known bug in the CONTACTS list that demands the USPS quadrant ID be spelled out, as opposed to abreviated, to permit SIRI to do its routing?
Thanks for any clarification on these matters.

siri will only use apple maps, this cannot be changed. you could try google voice in the google app.
