X61 max capacity for HDD and replacement help

Specs for the X61 say the X61 takes a  100(7200) or a 160 GB (5400 rpm). I replaced my original with a 120 from Seagate that failed and they sent me a Momentus 7200 250 Gb drive that won't clone with their Disk Wizard software.
Is the size a problem? Or is it their program? Should I try either Easeus or Acronis? Will the demo versions work?
I can't use Lenovo's R&R because I wiped the original Vista it came with and installed my own XP. If I need to reinstall Windows on the new drive because I can't clone it, after I format and reinstall XP, will R&R allow me to recover everything else or will I have to install everything from scratch and just recover my data from the old drive in a USB case. My old drive is not "dead" - just has errors.

Ahhh, well that's a new one on the market.
The iMac has Firewire ports (one of which is FW800, I believe, on the newest models) so you can add more storage externally. If you put in a larger drive you will need an external one at least the same size or larger for backups. If you plan to use Time Machine for backups then you need backup capacity about twice the size of the main hard drive. That means an external RAID array to provide 2 TBs to backup a 1 TB drive or 3 TBs for that big Seagate drive.

  • GUI Based tool for search and replace using regular expression

    Hi,
    I have developed this small tool which can be used for search and replace in multiple files using reqular expressions.
    Features:
    1. Full regular expression
    2. GUI based with Highlighted results
    3. Preview for replace available
    4. Pure Java based.
    5. Its like unix sed and grep
    Please visit below site for download/more information :
    http://sourceforge.net/projects/regexsearchrepl/
    Thanks,
    Hitesh Viseria

    I agree with you, it cannot compete grep/sed/awk combination. I couldnt find anything even close to grep/sed for windows which will also have a preview and most important, free. That is what made me write this tool. I am trying to
    improve its performance and more features like history etc.
    Any suggestions on additional features are most welcome.

  • Using applescript for Find and Replace All in Pages 2.0

    i saw that Pages 2.0 is scriptable
    i try to create a script for merge use to find and replace all occurence of a certain string using a script but Pages doesn't seems to respond to "Find" even using "System Events"
    how can i do to use this function with a script
    Thanx for any help
    S.B.
    ibook G3   Mac OS X (10.4.6)  

    OK, here's another example. This one gets the text as a string and uses the offset property to find "[", presuming it to be a merge delimiter. (Pages' text doesn't support "offset of").
    One failing of this scheme is that the offsets are incorrect if you have inline objects (pictures, shapes, tables, etc.). While it is probably possible to compensate for them, that's a trickier proposition.
    <PRE>-- Example merge replacements:
    property mergeText : {"[name]", "John Smith", "[address]", "1234 Anystreet"}
    on lookup(mergeWord)
    set theCount to count of mergeText
    repeat with x from 1 to theCount by 2
    if item x of mergeText = mergeWord then
    return item (x + 1) of mergeText
    end if
    end repeat
    -- If merge field is not found, delete it (replace it with the empty string)
    return ""
    end lookup
    tell application "Pages"
    repeat
    tell body text of document 1
    -- Get text as a string so that "offset of" can be used.
    set allText to it as string
    set startOffset to offset of "[" in allText
    if (startOffset = 0) then
    exit repeat
    end if
    set endOffset to offset of "]" in allText
    select (text from character startOffset to character endOffset)
    end tell
    set mergeWord to contents of selection
    tell me to lookup(mergeWord)
    set replacement to result
    set selection to replacement
    if (replacement is "") then
    -- Get rid of extra whitespace (space or return)
    -- Do it in a "try" block to handle edge cases at start or end of text.
    try
    set theSel to (get selection)
    set ch1 to character before theSel
    set ch2 to character after theSel
    if ((ch1 is " " or ch1 is return) and (ch2 is " " or ch2 is return)) then
    select character after theSel
    delete selection
    end if
    end try
    end if
    end repeat
    end tell</PRE>

  • How do I set-up my memory amount for max speed for FCP and Motion

    Hey all, I have a Dual 2.3 G5 with (8 Gigs) Ram. I'm working with a new client. I want to set up my memory or whatever else to provide MAXIMUM processing power for FCP and MOTION. Does anyone have any recommended settings. I've maxed-our RAM. My card is (ATI Radeon 9600-128MB of VRAM)
    Is there a setting in FCP that allows more processing power to be applied to that application ?
    Appreciate any replies

    Most of FCP's speed in performing functions is directly related to processor speed. The only way to increase performance would be to use a Mac with faster processors. Performance is also related to data throughput, so if you're working with high data rate video formats, a fast RAID and/or SATA (or eSATA) media storage solution would help.
    The exception to FCP performance is when rendering/processing FX Plugs; they are dependent on the power of the graphics card.
    Motion is mostly dependent on the power of the graphics card.
    There is no way that I'm aware of that you can speed up RAM. Having the extra RAM will just mean that you can successfully work with more applications open at the same time.

  • X61 Bizarrely Asking for HDD Password when one not set??

    Had some odd problems with my X61 last Friday with it dropping into 'stand-by' mode (Windows XP) every 30 seconds or so.  Trying to clear it I cycled the power and now it's asking for a HDD password - when I've not had a HDD password set since I installed PGP WDE 12+ months ago!!
    I've tried the current PGP password, together with all of the passwords I used around the time I installed PGP - nothing works.
    Removing the HDD and booting gets me to the BIOS settings and I've tried switiching the Passphrase setting (discussed in another post) and trying all the passwords again - still no good.  I've also tried the Drive in an alternate x61.
    Anyone heard of anything like this?

    Attach the HDD, turn on computer and press <Enter> if you are requested for the password.
    Sometimes it can happen, that the user is asked for a password, even none has been set.

  • Find and replace help needed, multiple variables

    Hi everyone,
    Im trying to find all urls in my code that start in a particular way but have a number variable at the end, see examples below
    <a href="/example/examplefolder/enquiry.asp?pid=123">
    <a href="/example/examplefolder/enquiry.asp?pid=485">
    <a href="/example/examplefolder/enquiry.asp?pid=284">
    and replace them with one url, see example below
    <a href="/example/examplefolder/default.asp">
    How can I use Dreamweaver find and replace to achieve this across my whole website?
    So far I only know how to find one thing and replace with another, rather than finding variables and replacing them with one thing.
    Thanks for your help with this!

    In the Find field of the Find and Replace dialog box, enter this:
    (href\s*=\s*\"\/example\/examplefolder\/enquiry\.asp)\?pid=\d+(\")
    In the Replace field, enter this:
    $1$2
    Select the "Use regular expression" checkbox.
    Explanation:
    The two sets of parentheses are capturing groups, which capture the actual values as $1 and $2.
    The \s* matches zero or more spaces.
    \" matches a double quote.
    \/ matches a forward slash.
    \? matches a question mark
    \d+ matches one or more numbers.
    I have written a two-part tutorial on using regular expressions, which can be found here: http://www.adobe.com/devnet/dreamweaver/articles/regular_expressions_pt1.html.

  • Links for tutorials and SAP Help

    Dear Moderators,
       Can you please provide us urls for useful tutorials and SAP help for developing the crystal reports and deployment. What is the infrastructure required for the development and deployment.
    Thanks!
    Surya.

    Hello Surya,
    I'm assuming from the context of your question that you're interesting in integrating Crystal Report to SAP - in the BI or reporting off of BW Queries.
    This is certainly possible via the "SAP Integration Kit" offered with BusinessObjects Enterprise.  Active discussion concerning the "SAP Integration Kit" and creating Crystal Reports can be found in the Business Objects forum:
    [https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/businessobjects-forums|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/businessobjects-forums]
    There's a "SAP Integration Java SDK" that allow web developers using BusinessObjects Enterprise Java SDK to develop web applications to interact with BW Queries in Crystal Report with SAP:
    [http://support.businessobjects.com/documentation/product_guides/boexir2/en/BusinessObjects_SAP_JavaSDK.pdf|http://support.businessobjects.com/documentation/product_guides/boexir2/en/BusinessObjects_SAP_JavaSDK.pdf]
    This forum is for discussions for Java SDK development outside of BusinessObjects Enterprise and SAP Integration.  The Java Reporting Component won't allow you to create or view reports if they're reporting off of BW queries. 
    Questions concerning the SAP Integration Kit is best asked in the "Business Objects" forums, and questions concerning the SAP Integration Java SDK is best asked in the "Business Objects SDK -> Java Development - Business Objects Enterprise"  forums.

  • Single sourcing tools for paper and html help

    Hi
    Today I started a new job where html help is made in RoboHelp
    and the paper manual is made in Word. Both are translated to 5
    languages, so the translators also use Word and RoboHelp.
    Unfortunately there is no single sourcing at all.
    I want to introduce single-sourcing so that I use the same
    source for output to html help and paper.
    I am used to FrameMaker for paper output and the WebWorks
    Publisher plugin for the html help output.
    If I were alone I might use FrameMaker and Madcap Blaze. I
    think however that I can introduce one but not two new tools for
    the 5 translators.
    What Is your suggestion? Which tools should I use? Word
    hasn't the conditional text feature I need. I don't belive that
    RoboHelp can create a Word output which lives up to the Company
    design standards. Besides, will Robohelp live, does it works under
    Window Vista?

    Hi Polle2. First of all there are many users on these forums
    who use RH to single source with no problems. Sure RH single
    sourcing requires a little thought and set-up - just like most our
    "true single source" tools. There's a new version of RH planned
    (version X6) and currently in beta test but we won't know what
    included in it until it's formally released.
    As far as product comparisons are concerned, I've not used
    Madcap Blaze and neither has anyone else as I believe it's not
    released yet. My two penneth worth is you are right to go down the
    single sourcing line and that RH - and other tools - could all fit
    the bill. It all depends on which one fits your specific
    needs.

  • Find and replace help needed deleting multiple Word bookmarks

    I'm importing sections of a Word document. The Word documents have bookmarks such as:
        <h3><a name="_Toc226886762" id="_Toc226886762">Fixed-variable</a></h3>
    I would like to do a sitewide search and replace, deleting all the bookmarks (they all start with Toc) but keeping the heading format and the text. I've tried various options, but nothing is working.
    Thanks.

    I just tried it again. When I clicked Replace All, the dialogue box disappeared. When I opened it again, I found a small square box at the end of the search string. When I tried to copy and paste it to here, it didn't show up.  <a name="_Toc[^>]+>([^<]+)</a>
    When I was searching and getting no results, I had copied and pasted a section with only one bookmark in it. It was in the child of a template, but I can't see how that would make a difference.
    Here's the code:
    <div id="mainContent">
        <h2><a name="_Toc227356382" id="_Toc227356382">Combine  trips</a></h2>
        <p>Unless you live across the street from the grocery store,  consolidating shopping trips will save you time, gas, and reduce emissions. Unless  it’s a staple on sale, don’t buy what’s not on your list. </p>
        <p><em>Costco sells gasoline  for less than the local stations. We wait until the tank is close to empty and  the let the savings on gas pay for the trip.</em></p>
        <h2><a name="_Toc227356383" id="_Toc227356383">Compare  prices</a></h2>
        <p>Keep a small spiral notebook with prices of items you  purchase regularly such as rice, pasta, and dog food. A credit card size  calculator makes comparing prices easier.</p>
        <h2><a name="_Toc227356384" id="_Toc227356384">Check the  receipt</a></h2>
        <p>Computers don’t make mistakes, but operators do. If sales  prices aren’t entered into the system, the scanned price will reflect the  regular price. Some stores will give you the item for free if the scanned price  exceeds the price on the shelf. </p>
        <h2><a name="_Toc227356385" id="_Toc227356385">Price  matching</a></h2>
        <p>Some stores match competitors’ sales prices. Look for a sign  that says “Guaranteed low prices” and show them the ad. That can save you both  time and gas. Some promise to beat prices by 10%, so you can save money as  well. </p>
        <p>Many big box retailers demand exclusive manufacturer’s  numbers so they can evade making good on price matching guarantees.  The product may have a meaningless difference,  such as the color of the icons. </p>

  • Search and Replace help. Please

    I have imported some text where in the original there is italic content but when bringing into IDCS4 that italic text shows up as _italic words_. That is as roman with _ characters surrounding it. Is there a way to search and replace. Needless to say the text between the _s varies.

    I would try a GREP find/change searching for (_)([^_]+)(_) and replace with $2 Set the change formatting to italics (preferably as a character style).  This translates to look for a _, then anything that is not a _, followed by another _, and replace with only the stuff in between. You can also use (_)(.+?)(_) which would match the shortest srting in between two _ characters in the same way (except it won't cross a paragraph break), but it will run a bit slower.
    Credit for this should go to Peter Kahrel and his excellent GREP primer....
