Which meta name="viewport" tag best used for Mac/Safari iPhone?

My test page URL using auto generated tag is: http://02ca0d2.netsolhost.com/action_appliance_02/index.html
Received suggestion as a result of posting question on the PVII forum, and included in the response was the suggestion that the DW CS6 automatically generates would be best changed to another, as follows:
DW CS6 tag:  <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">
The preferred tag for responsive pages suggested alternative was:
Suggested alternative:  <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width">
Can both be used in some way without conflict, or which one would be best, if indeed there is a preference or desired "best practice" across the broadest spectrum of available devices being in common use?
Again, this seems applicable to iPhones, and Safari, and as I'm Mac/Safari oriented, this opened another door in responsive design of which I am absorbing; or trying to understand.
I did research the following link but remain unable to make a decision at this juncture.
https://developer.apple.com/library/IOS/documentation/AppleApplications/Reference/SafariWe bContent/UsingtheViewport/UsingtheViewport.html
Thanks in advance.

Originally Dreamweaver CS6 used this:
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width">
The latest update of Dreamweaver CS6 and Dreamweaver CC now use this:
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">
The second version is considered to be preferable, although there's not much to choose between them. The important element is setting width to device-width. Without it, most smartphones will scale the page to fit into a nominal viewport approximately 960px wide.
By the way, there's nothing wrong with working on a specific operating system, but don't become blinkered by your Mac/Safari preference. It's the World Wide Web, not the Mac/Safari Web.

  • What's the best antivirus for mac???should i use one or not??

    Mac's use a Unix based operating system and other controls that make it hostile for viruses to thrive.
    However it's possible to carry Windows viruses to other Windows machines by a Mac, also there might be some corruption if your dealing with a lot of Windows files.
    So all you really need is a scanner to run when you need it, something like the free ClamXav is good.
    http://www.clamxav.com/
    Apple includes a anti-trojan/malicious program type anti-malware service built into all latest versions of OS X, it works and updates in the background.
    There has been many attempts at trying to "trojan" or trick Mac users into installing rogue software on web pages. If you see soemthing like this, best to just Force Quit the browser by clicking on the Finder and selecting Force Quit from the menu.
    A alternative browser like Firefox will offer more protection.
    If you run your typical day to day operations on a Mac in what's called "Standard User", with a separate Admin User account, you'll need to update your Apple Menu > Software Update and your Apple Menu > System Preferences > Security > toggle the "Automatically Update Safe Downloads List" check box on/off about once a week.
    Standard User provides more security restrictions, but is also designed not to intrude into those who are less capable use of the computer.
    Third party plugins for your browser like Flash and Silverlight (used on Netflix) require a once a week check for updates.
    Use a free service like the Mozilla browser check here:
    https://www.mozilla.com/en-US/plugincheck/
    Always back up your personal data and never install programs that your not 100% you trust the source of.
    If you have any questions or suspicions, simply ask the opinions of the more senior users here on this forum.
    Good advice is not to install any anti-virus like Norton that demands the operating system remain a consistent state. Apple changes things all the time, which breaks software like Norton or OS X itself when a Software Update occurs.
    There are two great free 3D games, simply search for: Nexiuz Classic and Cube 2 Sauerbraten.
    If this information helped you, please click "Helpful" or "Solved" thank you.
    Good Luck and enjoy your Mac.

  • What is the best online backup system to use for Mac?

    What is the best online backup system to use for mac?

    By online, do you mean backup to the cloud, where you pay a monthly fee for the service to host your data?
    If this is the case, then there are a lot of services (do not know them all, but DropBox, CrashPlan, Carbonite, Mozy, SugarSync, come to mine, and that is not a complete list.
    There are also services that allow you to backup over your home network or across the internet to your own storage.  CrashPlan has this option (for free), and Transporter come to mind.  CrashPlan talks to another computer also running CrashPlan that you own or have some control (could even be a friend or relatives computer).  Transporter is hardware that you either provide some storage of your choice, or they will sell the unit with storage.
    I'm mostly a CrashPlan to my own storage user.  I backup to a Mac mini for my Mom (300 miles away) and Wife (she is local )
    Can clarify your exact desires or needs.

  • Which application of Netweaver will be useful for JAVA professionals

    Hi,
    I am new to Netweaver and need to know which application of netweaver will be useful for me. I am basically a JAVA Programmer.
    What exactly i can learrn in netweaver. EP,Webdynpro or XI.
    Regards,
    Sujan.

    Hi,
        Netweaver Portal(EP) is a frontend which provides one solid interface to all your applications, whether they are SAP or not. It runs on the java platform.
    You can develop pure j2ee applications using the Netweaver Developer Studio, it has plug-ins which help in developing SAP technologies such as Web Dynpro, but you don't have to use it, you can develop your application using pure java technologies like EJB, jsp, etc. It also provides a solution for deploying your apps to the web application server.
    In EP & WebDynPro, you can easily code if you have Java knowledge.Java is a big part of being a Portal Developer.
    Hope this helps.
    Regards,
    Pooja.

  • H.264 What is the best use for this? H.264 Pros & Cons?

    I wanted to know since I am using DV what if any role can H.264 play in my workflow? What are the intended or best uses for this? What are H.264 pros and cons? Will it produce higher quality than DV?
    As always thanks in advance for reading and replying to my post,

    It will not make DV look better, it is a MPEG4 based compression format for material to be delivered over the web. As such, encoding your material to it it is the last step in the editing process.

  • Which GPU is Premiere Pro CC using for playback?

    Is there any way to tell which GPU PPcc is using during playback? For instance, on the new Mac Pro, which card does it choose to use for accelerating effects? Or lets say I have a windows system with two different video cards installed, how does it choose which one to use, and can I specify which one it should use?

    The OS determines most of it. As far as I know it is based on which PCI slot they are in, sorted by closest to the CPU to furthest, and independent of monitors being attached because the ordering is fixed at system startup while monitors can come and go. This can of course lead to some bad cases when the primary GPU doesn't have a monitor attached but those are edge cases. The one case of reordering we do over the OS list is we always put discrete devices ahead of integrated devices.
    Premiere will only use 1 GPU for playback and all others can be used for export.
    Hope this information is helpful.

  • Best software for mac book pro

    I am a new mac user and having trouble finding the best software for mac.  Windows for mac and parallels desktop have been recommended to me.  There is such a significant price difference between the two, is there a difference in what they offer? Are there any other software options for mac that I should be looking into?

    Windows is a operating system from Microsoft, that costs more money.
    OS X is the operating system on your Mac, it came free with the Mac you bought.
    Parallels and VMFusion are paid virtual machine software that can run other operating systems like a programs inside other operating systems, there is a performance penalty, but it's easier for new users and those who don't need the full power of the hardware.
    There is also VirtualBox, it's free virtual machine software with less features, but doesn't suffer from forcing you to upgrade for more money like the commercial versions do.
    Virtual Machine software has the ability to run other operating systems and a large portion of their software, which makes it attractive.
    There is Apple's BootCamp, it's also free, which allows one to section their boot drive space (called a partition) and install Windows 7 (only) there, this way one can directly boot a Mac into Windows 7 for better performance for 3D games and other heavy CPU uses. Although it's easy, it can be a lot more problematic if there is a problem.
    So you have those choices to run plenty of software, from Windows based programs, to Mac ones to Linux ones too.
    Windows in BootCamp or Virtual Machine?

    Which is the more powerful OS X for Mac?

       Thanks Barney, I get it! My English is not enough to explain exactly what I want to know... But I´ll try:
    That is a simple question of a new mac user (Myself). I have bought my first Mac and it came with a version I do not remember the name. There was an update called Maverick available for download and I updated. Ok? I hope you are understanding me.... The point is: I just want to be always updated about the best system for my Mac, because I see and I  hear many things about Mountain Lion, Leopard, Snow Leopard, etc...  And doubts come in my mind.
       Doubts like these:
      Which one is the best for my Mac?
      Which one is the powerful one?
      Which one over the Maverick (if there is one)I can run in my Mac no causing any problems?
      Can you help me with it?
       My Mac is a Mac Book Pro 4GB/250GB... These are the information I can give you now, my Mac is not with me.

  • What are best practices for managing my iphone from both work and home computers?

    What are best practices for managing my iphone from both work and home computers?

    Sync iPod/iPad/iPhone with two computers
    Although it isn't possible to sync an Apple device with two different libraries it is possible to sync with the same logical library from multiple computers. Each library has an internal ID and when iTunes connects to your iPod/iPad/iPhone it compares the local ID with the one the device normally syncs with. If they are the same you can go ahead and sync...
    I have my library cloned to a small 1Tb USB drive which I can take between home & work. At either location I use SyncToy 2.1 to update the local copy with the external drive. Mac users should be able to find similar tools. I can open either of the local libraries or the one on the external drive and update the media content of my iPhone. The slight exception is Photos which normally connects to a specific folder on a specific machine, although that can easily be remapped to the current library if you create a "Photos" folder inside the iTunes Media folder so that syncing the iTunes folders keeps this up to date as well. I periodically sweep my library for new files & orphans withiTunes Folder Watch just in case I make changes at one location but then overwrite the library with a newer copy from the other. Again Mac users should be able to find similar tools.
    As long as your media is organised within an iTunes Music or Tunes Media folder, in turn held inside the main iTunes folder that has your library files (whether or not you let iTunes keep the media folder organised) each library can access items at the same relative path from the library folder so the library can be at different drives/paths on different machines. This solution ensures I always have adequate backups of my library and I can update my devices whenever I can connect to the same build of iTunes.
    When working with an iPhone earlier builds of iTunes would remove any file not physically present in the local library, even if there was an entry for it, making manual management practically redundant on the iPhone. This behaviour has been changed but it will still only permit manual management with a library that has the correct internal ID. If you don't want to sync your library between machines on a regular basis just copy the iTunes Library.itl file from the current "home" machine to any other you want to use, then clean out the library entires and import the local content you have on that box.

  • Writing pad best suited for Mac.

    Hey Everyone,
    I have an IMac G6,1 Intel Core 2 Duo.
    This is my first time owning a desk top computer...I've only ever used powerbooks...I've also never used a mouse extensively...Well, after 3 months of intensive computer use, I'm getting shooting pains in my wrist. These are the first signs of carpel tunnel...Sigh.
    I'm in the market for a writing pad. I'm aware of the Wacom Intuit writing pad...Is anyone familiar with this pad? Can anyone suggest the writing pad best suited for Mac?
    Appreciate the help,
    SB

    Hi SB!
    Sorry, no help with a writing pad.
    But, I've had the same wrist pains, and mine came from using the keyboard and mouse on a regular height desk top of 28.5 to 30 inches above floor level, along with regular height chairs. Try using a typewriter stand or calculator stand height of about 27.5 inches instead, for your keyboard and mouse. That's why computer desks have a separate level built-in. Another alternative, that I'm able to use successfully, may be to raise the height of the seat on which you sit, best done not with an actual desk that has a center drawer, but with a table (or a desk with only drawers off to the sides). The key is that your wrists must be able to relax even while typing.

  • What is the best option for tethering my IPhone 4s with my iPad? (the iPad is wifi only)

    What is the best option for tethering my IPhone 4s with my iPad? (the iPad is wifi only)

    #1. Understand that if you switch carriers, you can NOT take your existing iPhone with you. It won't work. You will need to purchase a new one.
    #2. Your only choices are Sprint and Verizon. Decide who has the better coverage in your area. Keep in mind that you will NOT be able to get simultaneous voice and 3G data on either of these, as their CDMA networks do not support it. The U.S. T-Mobile network is not supported and is not fully compatible with the iPhone as it operates on a rarely used frequency compared to the rest of the world.
    #3. What in the world are "niners"? Do you mean you want to be able to keep your existing "phone numbers"? If so, that should be no problem. Most numbers in the US are now portable.
    #4. Consider WHY you want to switch. If the issue is really price, you're not going to see much of a difference. A few dollars a month at best for comparable voice and data plans.
