Which monitor to use for graphic and web design?

I've tried searching these forums in vain.
I work as a Web/Graphic Designer and I've been using my ancient Samsung SyncMaster 740N plugged in to my Macbook-2.13GHz Intel Core 2 Duo for the last five or so years. I need to upgrade my monitor pronto.
Any recommendations for 22-24 inch monitors? Btw, where do I check to see if my MB has DVI?
I was thinking about the Samsung SyncMaster XL2370 or the Samsung P2370.

I recently purchased, from BB, a Samsung 23" LED monitor that has made my life so much better! I intended to buy the new external monitor, but my MBP is two years old and not compatible with the monitors. The Samsung is comparable and far less pricey.

IBook for Graphic and Web Design

Hello,
I'm thinking of buying my sister's iBook (since she doesn't really use it). I was talking to a mac rep about using the iBook for Graphic and Web Design purposes and I wanted to get other people's opinions on how Adobe Creative Suite and Dreamweaver have performed in other people's iBooks.
Thanks!

Running a lot of applications simultaneously, or a few high processing type applications such as Adobe's is what takes up RAM. OS X utilizes Hard Drive available space to make up for memory (RAM) deficiencies. This will "slow down" a system's ability to manage the files. So if you like to multiple applications opened at the same time, buy more RAM. Personally, 1 gb ought to be the minimum for today's systems.
By contrast, a computer's processor, including logic board, video board, etc. are the engine of the system. The iBook has a small engine. So no matter how much RAM you feed it, it's still going to operate like a small engine. If you want more processing power, you would need to purchase a more powerful notebook (eg Power Book) or a more processor oriented machine such as the Intel iMac or Mac Pro.

Which codec to use for editing AND motion graphics (ala Final Cut Studio)?

I have a prosumer-level AVCHD camcorder (Panasonic HDC-TM700) and am working with Final Cut Studio. After doing a great deal of research it appears that there is NO real benefit to using any codec other than ProRes 422 for straight editing (a camera at this price point doesn't shoot images of a high enough quality to warrant using 422 HQ, which also requires more processor power, and not only does 4444 require rendering it also takes up a ton of space). However, I have read (many times) that there may be some benefit to using 422 HQ if I am doing motion graphics work (ala Motion 4). Can anyone verify this? Would it make any discernible difference when shooting with a camera like this? Even though it is a prosumer camcorder I am trying to squeeze as much value as I can out of the entire production.
Any input or advice?
Thanks!

Please don't double post.

I want to create a document in Illustrator that i can use for Print and Web - using 2 different colourspaces.

Is it possible to do this? I need to create a document so that I can export as a high quality CMYK for print and export the same file as RGB jpeg / pdf for web and email use. Do I have to create the document with 2 different colourspaces, or can I change / convert the colourspace after I have created and finished the document? or is there some simple way to select an RGB / CMYK option when saving/exporting?
look forward to your reply!
Tom

Tom,
In addition to what Monika said, the document can be either CMYK or RGB Colr Mode, but not both.
And you are right in starting with the CMYK because that will ensure (to the degree possible) that the CMYK and RGB versions match in colour (gamut, the CMYK gamut being the more linited and almost entirely included in the RGB gamut); this will prevent more vivid RGB colours which will make the CMYK colours seem duller.

Which ink is used for documents and photos

I have a Canon MX922 printer. It is ink-intensive; but I like the output. I want to make best use of the ink cartridges.
I assume that 250 BK is used for documents
I end up with unused 251 PGBK. I assume it is used for color photo printing.
Can I redirect that ink cartridge to be used on documents rather than the 250 BK large cartridge to equalize out the ink useage?
Thanks.

Someday - and no one knows when that day will come - maybe all applications will be able to take advantage of the Retina display. But for the present, not many do: including all Adobe applications. There was a demo of Photoshop at the Apple World Wide Developers Conference of Photoshop running at native Retina resolutions but no one at Adobe in marketing is saying when, if or how the upgrade may be coming. It could be a week, it could be a year, it could be 2-3 years. No one knows. And only Apple app's (for the main part) are really utilizing the native Retina display.
I've seen some demos of some applications (Apple's) that take advantage of the Retina display and they're awesome. But in actually working in the here-and-now I've heard quite a few gripes, particularly on the Photoshop forum, of menus looking pixelated and/or 'blurry' so I'm not quite ready to jump into the Retina display boat just now. Don't get me wrong - others have ad are very, very pleased with their selection. But until Retina displays are available on larger monitors, the maximum work area that you're going to be able to use is 15" - and that's simply not enough room for full-blown graphic design. Then there's the cost factor - for the $4,000+ you spend for a completely full-blown Retina kit, you can get a standard MacBook Pro, 16 GB of RAM, a fast SSD and even the Apple Thunderbolt Display for the same amount.
The standard MacBook Pro isn't better than the Retina display: it's just different. And I think (and this is only my opinion - other graphic designers should feel free to jump in here) that it's the best computer that you can get for your specific purposes. And, towards that goal, I have to recommend a very good external monitor (there's nothing more annoying than having to use InDesign in a single-page mode rather than side-by-side because your monitor isn't big enough).
Remember that this is only my opinion and that others might jump in with their own. But I was in the electronic pre-press business for more years than I care to admit and we always - always - worked with at least 19" monitors (and that's back when dinosaurs actually ruled the world).
I hope that others will jump in with their comments. I'm going to follow this thread and see!
Good luck,
Clinton

I accidentally set up two accounts. One account with my old e-mail address which I've been using for years and has all of my purchases on it. Now I have a new account with my current e-mail address. How do I disable this new account?

How do I disable this new account? I need to disable the new e-mail address account so that I can add it as an additional e-mail to my old account. THEN, how do I make this new e-mail address my primary e-mail for this old account?

Did yoo go to Settings>iTunes and App Stores and sign out and sign back in?

How about this? Use Delete array subset to extract chunks for averaging, and a shift register to retain the remaining array.
It is typically not advisable to use "delete from array" in a tight loop. The constant memory reallocations due to array resizing are probably inefficient.
Here's one simple way to do it..
(If the number of points is not divisible by 10, the excess tail is discarded. You can easily modify that behavior if desired.)

Using same project for Desktop and Web (?)

Is it possible to manage a same codebase/project for compiling both for AIR and web release (?) Also, on a distant thinking, can ANT able to help on this way?

To elaborate further, in Flash Builder create:
Core Library : Actionscript Library Project - This project contains 90% of your code as CWBenccw mentioned.
AIR Core Library : ActionScript Library Project (Linking AIR libraries) - This project contains AIR-specific implementations of core functionality.
Web App: ActionScript Project (Web) - This project links with Core Library and contains a basic entry point for web (a Main Sprite)
Desktop App: ActionScript Project (Desktop) - This project works like the above, but with a Desktop entry point and Application descriptor, and links with AIR Core Library
Mobile App: ActionScript Mobile Project - Same as above, but for mobile
The way you use your AIR Core Library is to provide overrides for things that are different in AIR. For instance you might want to be able to save files differently, but transparaently to the Core Library. In this case you create an interface for saving in Core Library, e.g.
interface Saver
function save(filename:String, data:String) : void;
You also create an implementation for your non-AIR core:
class FlashSaver implements Saver
function save(filename:String, data:String) : void
     var so : SharedObject = SharedObject.getLocal("something");
     so.data[filename] = data;
     so.flush();
And then an AIR implementation that might use AIR features like direct File IO.
Your various entry points are responsible for providing the correct implementation of Saver to your Core Libraries via some form of dependency injection.

Can the WLPI be used for a perl web site

We have a client, which has a perl(Apache/mod_perl) based web site. Cutomers submit orders on the web site and right now there is an order-processing system, but the client is looking for workflow/process product which will ease with all this order processing stuff like acknowledgement, approval, shipping, etc....So my question here is, can they use the WeBLogic Process Integrator for this purpose? The reason I am asking this is, looking at the WLPI docs, it looks like a Java/WebLogic only product and cannot be used for a perl web site.Thanks,Shireesh Thanneru

Yes.
However I would not recommend it, at least as your primary connection for the SmartTV. Relying primarily on VZW data plans is a bad way to view video services such as Netflix at the moment. It is very easy to chew through your plan with only a few videos depending on the resolution and a few other factors. Not only that but a smart TV may be periodically checking the internet from time to time to download firmware updates or provide reporting stats to the manufacturer.
VZW Jetpacks continue to be a poor choice for home primary internet replacement. The data plans that come from VZW and all other metered wireless providers are not friendly to this kind of internet traffic. Letting your guard down for a moment could result in costly overages and once you accumulate them you will be liable to pay them. A normal cable or DSL line with a high/unlimited cap would be more appropriate.
If the Jetpack is a backup or temporary internet connection then go for it. This is what a Jetpack is designed for, you can get by every now and then without too much risk. Just make sure you are powering your Jetpack down as soon as you are done streaming and keep a close eye on your data plan before and after any major viewing.

How to specify which cert to use for software virt server?

Is there a way to specify which certificate to use for each software virtual server? So, for example a user hitting https://somewhere.com would get the certificate for somewhere.com while the virtual server https://somewhereelse.com would use the certifcate with the name somewhereelse.com in it?

No, this is not possible due to limitations of the underlying protocols.
HTTP requests are sent over TCP connections which deal with IP addresses and port numbers (i.e. hardware virtual server properties), not hostnames (i.e. software virtual server properties). The HTTP protocol adds software virtual server support by allowing a client to identify the hostname (e.g. "www.iplanet.com") of the server it wishes to communicate with. This is achieved by including a "Host:" header with each HTTP request.
Unfortunately, the SSL/TLS protocols require that the web server present its SSL/TLS certificate BEFORE the client sends its HTTP request. Since the software virtual server information is contained in the HTTP request, it is not possible for the server to select different certificates for different software virtual servers.
You will need to use hardware virtual servers (i.e. virtual servers that have different IP addresses and/or port numbers) if you wish to use distinct SSL/TLS certificates.

After reopening Firefox does not remember which desktop was used for each window. Can you help, please.

I'm using two displays and several desktops on my Mac (OS X 10.9.4).
When I need to restart Firefox, it remembers to open windows from last session in correct display, but does not remember which desktop was used for each window. So when the application starts, it opens all windows on a desktop which is currently active instead of reopening them on desktops used during the last session. How to fix the issue?

Hi Nerva,
Thank you for your question, there is a add on I have been recommended to custom set up of opening windows in new monitors. It's called [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/monitor-master/ Monitor Master].
However, in regards to the session remembering which monitor the window was open in, in the profile folder there is a file that stores window positions and dimensions. It is called localstore.rdf.
Please stay tuned for more investigation, as there are definitely bugs on file for similar issues. Pinpointing it is the hard part.
