Will my PB G4 handle 10.4xx?

Hi,
I have a Powerbook G4, 500mhz, 512mb ram (256mb pc100 + 256mb pc133) and 80gb hd.
Is 10.4 heavier than 10.3 - I mean, will my PB be slower if I install 10.4xx?
Is it easy to upgrade? (my thought was to clone harddrive before I start)
Would my PB be faster if I get more RAM?
thank you!

Hi thaa, Welcome to Apple Discussions.
if you're running 10.3 now without issue, you'll be fine with 10.4. Here are the System Requirements for 10.4 While you exceed them, the added RAM will help. IMO it needs at least 512MB the more the merrier.
Yes, the upgrade install is like any other install. (Oh, you may find you get a double boot on restart only the first time. This would be normal for a 10.4 installation.)
Cloning your hard drive is ALWAYS a good idea!
And be sure to run "Verify Disk" in Utilities/Disk Utility before you begin the upgrade and repair permissions when finished.
Good luck. Let us know if you have further questions.
EDIT: After the upgrade apply the 10.4.10 Combo Updater PPC and repair permissions again.

Will Lion install correctly handle multiple accounts from Snow Leopard?

Will Lion install correctly handle multiple accounts from Snow Leopard? Will current settings, DOCS etc be carried over?

I found the solution to my problem after I upgraded and it lies with the X509 Anchors.
SOLUTION: Go to /Library/Preferences/com.apple.security-common.plist (it may be a hidden file) and change it to /Library/Preferences/com.apple.security-common.plist.bak. This should remove the system calling to old outdated anchors and allow it to use the new security protocols under Lion's sandboxing feature.
It worked for me and mail runs fine.

Will a RV router handle this?

I'm looking to verify that a RV180 or another RV router will handle the scenario below. Also, I need to share 1 internet connection and need to be able to reach the router remotely, the IP Cameras remotely. I'm really trying to educate myself with VLANs by watching online training videos but I'm still getting confused. In order to utilize VLANs, do you have to use static IP addresses on all the PCs? This would be a deal breaker because the public wifi obviously would not consist of static IPs. The cameras as well as the Point of Sale terminals would be static. Also, as noted in the diagram, I have 3 rooms in this old building to home run to so that complicates things a little. Of the switches in the POS VLAN and SURVEILLANCE VLAN will be workstations and printers (POS) and cameras and NVR (SURVEILLANCE). I'm hoping the RV router can use port based VLANs so I can set individual ports up for each VLAN and then go swich to switch. Lastly, does the RV support Layer 3?
Thanks
Ken

>In order to utilize VLANs, do you have to use static IP addresses on all the PCs?
No.
> I'm hoping the RV router can use port based VLANs so I can set individual ports up for each VLAN and then go swich to switch.
RV (e.g. RV180 and RV042G) support port-based VLAN.
>Lastly, does the RV support Layer 3?
RV supports inter-VLAN routing.

How many client connections will iMQ 2.0 handle?

My main concern is what the number of concurrent client connections (in a single instance) iMQ
can handle? This also depends on Hardware/Software configuration, JVM version (if it pure Java implementation), etc. But it also depends on Vendor implementation. For example FioranoMQ claims that can handling more than 5K concurrent client connections in a single instance of the FioranoMQ server without leading to any substantial performance degradation when a low number
of clients are connected to the server.

With proper tunning iMQ 2.0 can handle thousands of simultaneous connections.
For example on a modest Sun system (Sun Ultra 60/2300 (2x300MHz) 512MB ram)
We have run 4000 active connections without a problem. With more memory the
system could have supported more.
The iMQ FAQ gives some tuning guidelines for configuring the iMQ server
(the broker) to handle large number of connections. I'm attaching the
relevant excerpt (the online FAQ is a bit out of date).
When I try to connect more than 500 clients to the Broker's JMS service, performance gets really poor. Is there a way to configure the
Broker to handle more connections with better performance?
Yes. By default the JMS service's thread pool is limited to 1000 threads. The Broker runs best when it can allocate two threads per
connection. Once the thread pool limit is reached, threads are shared and performance decreases.
The solution is to:
1.Increase the thread pool limit for the JMS service so threads are not shared.
2.Configure the broker's socket read timeout so read threads fully block.
3.Configure the JVM to improve performance in highly threaded applications.
4.And if you are running on Solaris and plan on going over ~1000 connections you will also need to:
Increase the maximum number of open file descriptors per process.
Step 1: Increase thread pool limit for JMS service
Set the jmq.jms.max_threads property to be 2X the maximum number of connections you wish to support. For example if you want to
support 1000 connections you will need to set the property to 2000. You can do this by adding the following line to
$JMQ_VARHOME/stores/<broker instance name>/props/config.properties:
jmq.jms.max_threads=2000
Or by running jmqcmd:
jmqcmd update svc -n jms -o maxThreads=2000
Step 2: Configure the broker's socket read timeout
Set the jmq.protocol.timeout to 0 to cause read threads to fully block in read. Do this by adding the following line to
$JMQ_VARHOME/stores/<broker instance name>/props/config.properties :
jmq.protocol.timeout=0
Step 3: On Solaris pass additional parameters to the JVM
If you are running the broker on Solaris you should pass the following parameters to the JVM:
-Xss128k -Xconcurrentio
The first parameter reduces the per-thread stack size to 128k. The second adjusts several internal JVM parameters that significantly improves performance of highly concurrent applications.
You may pass these to the broker by using the -vmargs option to the broker command or you may choose to alter the $JMQ_HOME/bin/jmqbroker script by adding "-Xss128k -Xconcurrentio" to the line that starts with with "def_jvm_args". For example you would end up with a line that looks like:
def_jvm_args="-Xms8m -Xmx128m -Xss128k -Xconcurrentio"
Note that if your system has sufficient RAM you may also want to increase the JVM max heap size parameter (-Xmx128m).
Step 4: On Solaris Increase the maximum number of open file descriptors per process
This is covered in the iMQ 2.0 documentation. One way to do this is to run 'ulimit -n unlimited' in the shell you are going to run the broker in.

Will more RAM help handle large Excel files?

Hi everyone,
I know this message may be better suited to the Office for Mac Forums website, but the site hasn’t been able to validate me as a new user so far (it's been weeks of trying!), and I’m therefore unable to ask a question. So I have to resort to annoying you here.
I run Excel 2008 (12.1.7) on a 8-core Mac Pro (early 2008) with 6 Gb of RAM (OS 10.5.6). I encounter a lot of problems working with big files, such as a 385 Mb file comprised of over 600,000 row and 50 columns of mostly data (only a few columns are filled with simple formulas).
After loading the file (which took quite a while), the Activity Monitor indicated that Excel was using 1.12 Gb of Real memory an 2.11 Gb of Virtual, while 3.66 Gb of RAM was free. When I then attempted to create a PivotTable with this data, the amount of memory used by Excel gradually rose to 1.94 Gb of Real an 2.93 Gb of Virtual (2.85 Gb of Free memory was still available) while reading the data. At this point I then got a message stating that there’s not enough memory. I had to resort to breaking the file up into smaller ones to analyze the data, which is quite annoying.
I was told that being a 32-bit application, Excel 2008 was limited to handling 4 Gb of RAM. But I thought that 4 Gb being way more than the size of the file on disk, and having 6 Gb of RAM on my machine, I shouldn’t have any problem working with it. Obviously I was wrong. Can someone please clarify what’s going on here? Would more RAM significantly help?
Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Yes, I bet the Windows version of Excel is better. I think it’s definitely time to try it.
When you say “having 8 DIMMs”, do you mean filling up the 8 memory slots, or having 8 Gb? I believe I remember seeing that 10 Gb was the sweet spot, with all 8 memory slots occupied. Is that right? And what brand of RAM do you like currently, still OWC?
Thank you Hatter.

How many ip addresses will an airport extreme handle?

I have about 60 devices in my home that need an IP address and can only imagine with the Internet of Things, wearables, security etc. that it will go higher in the future.
How many IP addresses will an Airport Extreme or Time Capsule handle reliably?
Thanks -

About 250 total wireless and Ethernet addresses, with a limit of 50 for wireless devices........assuming that it is the AirPort Extreme or Time Capsule that is acting as the router handing out the IP addresses.

Will the Corsair CX430 Handle the MSI N560GTX-Ti Video Card

The Corsair +12V rail is rated at 28A and 336 Watts.
If this won't handle it, what do I need for the N560GTX-Ti twin frozr II?
What will be the system signs if it cannot handle it?

I upgraded the power supply to a Corsair TX750 with 62 Amps and 744 Watts on the +12V rail, but am still having problems with the video card. Here are the symptoms:
With the computer turned off through windows there is still a voltage trickle that causes the blue LEDs on the DRAM fans to stay on. The blue LEDs on the CPU fan also stay on and there is a slight jerk in the fan blades twice every second. Again the computer is off and this is happening.
If I unplug the power cord then everything goes off. But if I plug the power cord back in and the computer is still turned off, I get the trickle and same symptoms.
This happens even if I turn the power supply off at its switch on the back of the power suppply.
If I take the MSI video card out the symptoms go away.
This symptom appeared before I ever switched the computer on with the MSI video card.
Also, If I take the MSI video card out and install a PCI-E 16 Radeon video card, there are no symptoms, so the problem does not seem to be in the PCI-E bus or the motherboard.
The video card seems to be functioning otherwise.
Any Suggestions?

How many CS Increments will it take to handle ProRes Correctly

Two Simpleton-tests with AE 5.5 revealing that AE still hasn't learned a darn thing in regards to the ProRes Codec
Test 1:
1) Import ANY Canon 5DMKII into AE CS5.5
2) Add it to a new Comp
3) Add that comp to the render queue
4) Select ProRes 4444 as output codec
5) Render and compare with your original Canon Footage
Expected Result in the Quicktime Player 7:
The ProRes File Should look somewhat like the original.
It does NOT.
Actual Result
Gamma is WRONG
Color is slighty shifted
And Noise/banding has been increased significantly.
Test 2:
1) Open Apple's Compressor
2) Import the same Canon File
3) Setup a 4444 Codec like in AE
4) Render out
Expected Result in the Quicktime Player 7:
The ProRes File Should look somewhat like the original.
It does.
Actual Result
ProRes transcode looks 100% identical to the source
Test 2 Expanded
Import the Compressor-created 4444 file into AE and repeat test 1
Expected Result in the Quicktime Player 7:
The ProRes File Should look somewhat like the Compressor-Created file.
It does NOT.
Actual Result
Gamma is TOTALLY WRONG
Color is LESS shifted than when exporting the Canon file directly
Noise/banding is MORE than the compressor created file but LESS than when exporting the canon file directly...
I am more or less speechless. I have been reading about this problem on a million blogs. Including adobe's own.
Since at least since CS3. There have been several invain work-arounds. And now this. CS 5.5 - with the same problem.
Adobe, how many versions do you need to get it right.
Perhaps, you could look a little a Apple's technology, as it seems to be much more effective and advanced than yours.

Hi Rick,
first things FIRST ;-)
Thank you very much for taking the time to make that post.
My color settings in AE are correct. And I am using a color managed workflow -)
It plays NO PART whether I enable the "Use Legacy Gamma"....
Your example is correct in BUT it only applies to the realm in which you created it > RGB
and it does not exhibit temporal H264 artifacts stemming from a YUV 4:2:0 (609 Color Space) Matrix
You dont exaclty round-trip the way that I was describing a rountrip in my initial post.
I know that a ramp can reveal certain things but it is a highly virtual comparison and does not really apply to live-worl footage.
At least in this case ;-)
You take RGB-generated grays and then output to ProRes
I took a YUV-color-realm movie entered into the realm of RGB (AE) and then exported to ProRes
And THAT is where the problem lies.
I am uploading the file in question. It is a movie from the 5DMKII.
That is the source I have been testing with all along.
It is great in that it has a dark area with quite a bit of noise. THAT noise after AE has encoded it to ProRes will look banded and become worse.
Not so when encoding with Compressor.
Besides, and this I cannot wrap my head around, when compressor is compressing the exact same file it is 295MB in size but when doing it with AE it is 413.
Something wrong there ?
Anyway, here is the link to the file if you wanna try with that.
I am uploading a screen shot to show you which area you should look out for.
And rememeber this is NOT visible when looking at it in AE. you HAVE to rountrip and open the source and the rountripped file in the Quicktime Player.
Remember, most folks are WATCHING the movies in the quicktime player on OS X... So I would LIKE my files looking identical to the source when watched in the QT player. I dont believe that any consumer out there, just aiming to watch a movie has AE installed so that he can watch the movie in the way I (all AE users) intended it to look.
Adobe we NEED this to work.
When/if you do the test - make a real world comparison.
Open the Original source in AE and out-encode it to PR4444.
Then open the quicktime player and load up both (PR4444 and ORG source)
Put them on top of each other and flip back n forth. Huge difference in the area that I have hi-lighted in SS below.
The noise in the original is very present in the original file in that area...
When looking at adobes encode the noise has become large square fields(almost) looks a little like banding.
When using Apple's compressor to rountrip it looks exactly like original.
Might I add, taking the original file and opening it directly in AME (bypassing AE altogether) will have the same impact on the file
as when exported directly from AE. So it seems as if adobes Quicktime encoding framework has a bug altogether. I tried all of this with the
cineform codec as well. When using adobe to encode to cineform it displayed the same artifacts.

When will we get better handling of Fuji raw files?

Why is it that Fuji raw files (I'm using a Fuji X-T1 camera) are treated so badly in Lightroom? I have just tried Irident Developer and just exporting random photo of my son with default settings in Irident got me a vastly better result than I able to get from Lightroom.

Joergen,
I was quite concerned myself when reading some of the posts about LR processing X-trans files, even after the fix done in LR 4.4 (Adobe's Fujifilm X-Trans sensor processing tested: Digital Photography Review)
What I noticed though, is that the articles with "comparisons" are biased and usually talk about "detail" and trying to "fix" it to no avail. My experience with every single raw file available was, however, that it is possible to do a much better job with LR than what the articles present, leading me to think that the authors are either clueless or marketing agents in disguise.
Moreover, some of the files that are presented as "better" are in fact quite over-sharpened showing an obviously digital result.
My recommendation is to try and see with your own eyes. I was able to test the packages using trial periods and finally ended up sticking to LR for the overall way it handles the images.
Here go a couple of raw files for you to try:
Dropbox - DSCF2432.RAF
Dropbox - DSCF2425.RAF
100% comparisons between LR (PROVIA profile) and OOC jpg (PROVIA Film Simulation):
1.A 2.B
2.A 2.B
Any preference?
1.A and 2.A are the Raw files processed with LR. 1.B and 2.B are OOC JPG, PROVIA

Will the latest iMac handle FCP and Canon 5d Footage

I have an older iMac 2ghz (white model). Obviously it is struggling with the Canon 5d footage.
Anyone using the new iMac's with success or I am going to need to go the pro route?
I was hoping to go with the cheapest 24" and load it with 8mg of ram.
Any insight would be greatly appreciated!

Spring 2008, I edited on campus with a 20" iMac with a 1gb ram and a processor speed of 2.4 Ghz if I'm correct. I'll be honest I was so impressed with that machine. Today, I own a 2.6Ghz Macbook Pro and edit Full HD footage everyday at work. You'll be amazed at just how nice that new iMac will work. Actually, your thoughts are the same as mine, with the exception of the ram. I don't think that you need it. In fact, you might not even notice it. Stick to your guts on the pure power of the basic iMac, it may be much stronger than you think. I know that my next purchase will also be the basic 24" model. Why? Well, because my Macbook Pro 17" 2.6 Ghz with 4gb ram and 512 graphics card seems really similar to the 20" iMac I was using back in Spring of 2008 -- at a third of the cost.
Pretty cool, huh?

Will my MD101ll/a handle 1.5v ddr3 1600 ram

Will 1.5v ddr3 1600 ram work in my MD101ll/a laptop?

Go to crucial.com and let their memory advisor app scan your Mac. It will tell you exactly what RAM is compatible. Once you have the results you will know what crucial RAM will work, and the specs you can use for other manufacturers' RAM. For what it's worth, crucial RAM is among the best, and the prices are very reasonable.

Exporting Large Backup Set will not pass test - handle is invalid (6)

I am trying to export and initial backup set for a client on a Windows 2012 R2 server to an external HDD. I have tried this several times with the same error occuring when I test the lmb file of handle is invalid (6). As it takes a while to do each test and the client is a distance from me I am making sure the export is corrct before I have it sent to me to import. I have no encryption on and no Compression and tried single block. I have also turned off UAC but not rebooted. This is the 3rd attempt and tried on 2 different drives. Anybody any ideas? Thanks

I can't promise that your backup set is okay, but I've tried on several occasions to use the "test" feature when exporting a backup set. (We always use encryption and compression.) It always said the export failed. However, those same supposed failed exports have all imported just fine. Now I just export and never test. The backup set always seems fine. I can say that I've never yet tried an export on Server 2012 though.

Will the Officejet 7000 handle 10 mil glossy photo paper, can it pull that thickness through it?

I had an older DesignJet 1220c that would not feed the 10 mil photopaper through it, I had to manually feed it from a paper slot in the back.
What about the Officejet 7000? Is 10 mil photo paper approved for it?
Thanks,
MG
