Yes, another computer build but with a specific purpose.

Firstly, I thankyou if you have even opened this thread. Forgive me if my question seems innane!
I am planning a new computer build for the following purpose
PS CS6 - working files at 2GB plus
Premiere CS6*
*My video work is very specific. Projects are atypically less than 5 mins in duration and often 30sec TVC type spots.
Source material is AVCHD, PNG and in near future uncompressed files from the Blackmagic Cinema Camera (10bit)
Final output is to be broadcast HD quality at top end and many at web level via YouTube.
I try to be 'tidy' in my editing and keep track numbers to 4 (if that makes any difference?)
I am not the most tech savvy guy by a long shot, compared to Bill and Harm I'd be luck to rate .2 on the richter scale.
My thoughts thus far are this:
Full tower
3690 proc
64GB of ram
MOBO? Not sure if to wait for 'Blunderbolt'
****Numerous HDD's as required
GTX680
Win 7 64
****So the question I know will roll your eyes! Mother look away now... This may get ugly!
Given the short durations and 10bit source, can I avoid RAID? I know enough that a few layers of 10bit must be a huge amount of data (back to no other way than raid) but wondering how it compares to different intensive compressed codecs such as AVCHD? Should I put on my tin foil hat and hide?
I would really appreciate your thoughts.
Regards,
Peter Lloyd Culley.

I do not know enough to answer your question regarding RAID. However, I did notice that you wanted to get an i7-3960 CPU. I may not be a guru but from my experience with the i7-3930 and what I have read since those processors came out, there is not enough of a difference between the two chips to make up for the price difference. I'll even risk to say that you'd be paying an extra $500 just for bragging rights. The i7-3930 is just as good, just clocked a bit lower and has 3 megs less L3 cache. Once you overclock the 3930, it basically performs just as well as its much more expensive brother.
Save money on your CPU and put it somewhere else where it will make more of a difference to your system.

Moving iTunes to new computer..but with content from CD's

My wife has copied over 100 cd's onto iTunes many years ago. On her old computer they were all there, and also on her iphone.
I have moved folders, opens specific folders by holding the shift key etc, but nothing shows the copied cd's.
I still have the original HD..but thats it.
Is there a way to bring them over from her iphone? wife says that wont work which sounds irrational.
Last computer was Vista. New computer is Win 7...

Did you get an answer on this? I'm having the same problem.

Yet another chat applet, but with good reason...

Hi, I realise there are thousands of perfectly good chat applets out there (and millions of rubbish ones) but this is a last ditch to make something functional, fun and effective for my Computing Coursework. Thanks to AQA's sylabus, any remotely interesting topics are inplausable as it would result in me getting an instant U.
My questions on this topic are as follows...
What would be the best way to connect applets to server?
- Straightfoward Sockets
- RMI
- XML-RPC
With the last two would these run on joe user's browser without an additional extra bit being installed? Also, if sockets is the best answer is it possible to use XML as my data transfer medium? How can I encrypt this? If RMI is the best solution, are there any quick and concise tutorials kicking around? Will RMI be secure? How can I make it secure? Are all of the above clouding the issue too much and is there a better solution?
Thanks in advance. Sorry if that left your head in a spin...
- Andrew

I did this a few years ago with straight socket communication. I would say start off with that, then if you'd like to use XML you can still send XML through the existing socket connections and parse it on the other end. But, there's no reason to make it more complicated than you need it, especially if you'll get a bad grade.

How can my bf and I share are itunes on our computer together but with separate apple ID's so we DO NOT receive each others iMessages all the time?

My boyfriend and I both share an itunes together on my mac book pro, is there away to have seperate apple ID's but both are connected to the shared itunes and have access to all of our purchases? I am asking this becaue since my boyfriend and I both have iphones, we keep revieving each others messages and conversations, and not only is it annoying, but it is an invashion of privacy both ways, on his side and mine. What do we do?
Can you even change your apple ID on your iphone without losing your contacts, apps, music etc..? Can you even have two apple ID's on one shared itunes? Some help me out here, I am so confused.

All apps and purchases are linked to your apple ID, so you can't share them across 2 devices that are using different apple id's, it won't work. the purchases that are on your mac at the moment will only work with the apple id they were brought with.
the only thing thats possible to share is purchased music. you have to first covert it to mp3 within itunes, then your bf can import it into his own itunes library and sync with his phone.

How to access another computer's backups with Rescue and Recovery

Hi all,
I'm in the middle of a disaster. It is a long story, but basically, here is what I need to do now:
My laptop was backing up to my NAS using Rescue and Recovery (R+R). I no longer have that laptop. How can I access those backups and retrieve files using another Lenovo PC now?
Here's what I've tried on the Lenovo PC to access the laptop's backups:
When I open Windows Explorer and go directly to the NAS, I can see the RRBackups folder and the directory structure, but all the files are like Data0, Data1, etc. So can't restore those.
When I open R+R on my PC and try to restore individual files from Network, nothing shows, as if there are no backups on the NAS.
When I press F11 and boot into R+R, I can see the Scheduled Backups on my NAS, but when I click on them to access individual files, they appear empty.
Thanks for your help.

bighill89, welcome to the forum,
do you know which version of R&R was installed on the ThinkPad and did you by any chance create a cd?
If there are version differences between the two systems there may be problems recovering data out of the backups, using a rescue cd may help. The only doubts I have here is whether or not the correct network driver will be present on the cd allowing you to access the NAS.

ITunes will not open on win7 machine. It does under another user account, but not this specific one, although it is adminstrator and has access to everything. Please help.

User has all rights that I can see, set up as administrator.
O/S is Win7 and complete removal of iTunes and re-install of 64bit version.
Can not see the service running in task manager and no error message is given.
Have tried to run from .exe file and still nothing.
Quicktime runs fine.
Have also deleted AVG on a temp basis in case that was stopping it.
Please, any advise would be greatly appreciated as the young lad I am looking at this for has not been able to use
is Christmas present (iPod) to date.
Thanks in advance

Try this:
Start iTunes in iTunes Safe Mode:
1. hold down the Shift and Control key together and click to start iTunes.
2. when you see the iTunes icon in the task bar, click on it.
3. you will get a box that says "iTunes is running in safe mode. Visual plug-ins you have installed have been termporarily disabled." [I don't know what plug-ins I installed but you should clearly see that these so-called visual plug-ins are likely the cause of your issues];
4. click Continue to open iTunes.
Now press your sync button and everything should work fine.

No messages are dowloading for one account, but two others are working. Server settings are fine, messages are dowloading on another computer OK, but not mine.

My thunderbird has stopped downloading messages in one of my accounts, the other two accounts, from different providers, are working fine.
We have two PC's downloading messages from the same account, and it has worked fine like this for years. The other PC is still receiving the messages. I've checked my webmail, and can log in fine there, the settings in my account have not been changed in Thunderbird, and are the same as the other PC.
I looked in the error console in Thunderbird, this is what message I get :
"Timestamp: 23/03/2015 12:41:03 PM
Error: An error occurred during a connection to pop3.vianet.ca:110.
Cannot communicate securely with peer: no common encryption algorithm(s).
(Error code: ssl_error_no_cypher_overlap)
Thanks for any ideas you might have on solving this! Happy to provide more info if needed.

Hi，
I sugget you try to ping server so that we can verify the connectivity.
Can windows 8.1 access Windows Server 2008R2?
Also,please check the event viewer to see if some error log appeared when the issue occurred.

ITunes match stopped mid-matching and the programme told me to sign out then sign back in to iTunes. I did this but when I turned iitunes Match back on it told me it would erase my old library I'd partiall uploaded as it was "on another computer".

Any ideas how I can save my old library....I'd literally matched/uploaded 18000 songs!
What's more, the system is saying I've activated another computer leaving me with only 2 left out of my 5... Which is incorrect
Any ideas?

Go to the  menu/About This Mac - what OS version shows there?
Do a backup, preferably 2 separate ones on 2 separate drives.
Revert to a Previous OS X
Revert to Snow Leopard
If you do revert, I'd use Setup Assistant to restore your data. This process takes a while, so do it when you won't need the computer for several hours, based on my experience.

.tif files wouldn't open with Reader XI. It said they weren't supported or were damaged. I uninstalled readerXI and installed Reader DC and it still doesn't work. When I send them to another computer, they open without any problems. What can I do next?

Reader XI would not open several files. It said .tif was not a supported file type or it was damaged. I uninstalled Reader XI and installed Reader DC with the same results. When sent to another computer, they open with no problems. What do I do next?

The other computer must have something that opens .tif files. Adobe Reader has always only opened .pdf files.
If you are double clicking on a .pdf and Reader is trying to open the file, you need to set your systems file associations for the proper program to open that file type.

I lost my bookmarks after transporting hard drive to another computer, but I didn't save them in a specific folder, so how do I get them back?

Our computer crashed almost two weeks ago so my dad took it to Best Buy to get it fixed, and they said that we were very close to the hard drive going out and losing everything. Luckily, they said that they could easily transfer all of our data into another computer, but that they would have to keep it over night.
So they did, and when I got it back I immediately went to Microsoft Word (after we installed it again, of course) to see if all of my documents were there. (I am a writer, so it's very important to me.) Only half were there, so my father took it back and they said only half transferred, but they could transfer it all, no problem, it just has to stay over night again. (They also installed iTunes, etc. for us so we wouldn't have to. It was very nice of them.)
When they gave it to my father, they said my bookmarks should be on there. Well, when we came home and hooked the computer up, the only book marks there were some from years ago, but not mine. I DIDN'T ever save my book marks to a specific file; I would just click the Bookmarks tab, hit Bookmark This Page, and then click Done, and it would appear at the bottom.
Well, my book marks are not there and I cannot find them any where; no site has helped and they are VERY important. My dad refuses to talk to the tech guys again, so I would REALLY appreciate help.
Thank you!!! :)
P.S. I've made my own folder now. ( It seemed like a good idea. :] )

HT3819 I can use remote on my iPhone to connect with my iTunes library, but i can't connect to another computer using home sharing to access apple tv. I have used the same access ID and password that is used for the apple tv.

I can use the Remote app on my iphone to connect with my itunes library on my computer, but I can't connect to the Apple TV using home sharing with another computer in the house. I am using the same ID and password that the apple tv uses to connect with the other computer. Also how do I check what version of IOS that my iphone is using?

Version:
iOS Settings>General About (or it'll say when you hook it up to iTunes)
Are all the devices on the same physical network? I think you're saying all are set up using the same home sharing credentials.
If you've not done so restart all devices and your router.
If you can get any of the devices connected by ethernet to reduce the wifi burden that may help but to be honest I would not expect simply beoing on wifi to prevent devices/computers appearing in the list.
Does the other computer have any firewall or port blocking software running?

Yes, another computer build but with a specific purpose.
