Resolved Apple's new trackpad\mouse buttons


frankly, have problem apple's new trackpads being mouse button, , guess it's irrational, but...

laptops, i'm kind of used using laptops trackpads , buttons being separate, have habit of tapping on palmrest instead (a lot) , find kind of awkward use lot of times. i've thought of them established 2 different things, guess it's more useful lot of people. thinking they'd still have mouse button have trackpad usable one, though. in cases, it's more useful use it, , since use ibook g4 trackpad has worn down lot can double button, i've used way. there possibility apple make them separate again? , there way mod notebook can 1 on there?
 

no , no 2 questions.

Anyone else think Apple is releasing a new device?


if bit, apple released ipod touch 6th gen classic ipod in 2007. going 6th gen of iphone , think may getting ready device in 5-7 inch range. 2 things make me think this. first success kindle fire , galaxy note have been having many millions sold. obvious there growing number of people want mobile device bigger phone smaller ipad. second way have been integrating ios os x. going more evident release of mountain lion.

thinking apple going introduce 5-7 inch device year run ios able work imac, mbp or mba. maybe have seen iphone , ipad sharing apps. if made device be looking @ list of apps, drag on right instead of going next screen, drag on imac or mbp? or working on document on new device , select option , appear on imac or mbp right left off continue working on or vice versa. there has reason trying integrate ios , os x , pretty clear people want larger iphone apple doesn't seem willing make bigger. thoughts?
 

i'll odd 1 out, think apple release @ least ipod touch year bigger screen. maybe iphone afterwards. backwards previous years, still possible.

Best Cleaner For Macs ???


hi

i'm looking round cleaner mac. wise install onyx cleaning programe? or ccleaner

recommend :rolleyes:

thanks.
 

you don't need "cleaner" or "maintenance" apps keep mac running well, , of these apps can more harm good. remove files/folders or unused languages or architectures, nothing more free drive space, risk of deleting important in process.

these apps not make mac run faster or more efficiently, since having stuff stored on drive not impact performance, unless you're running out of drive space. of these apps delete caches, can hurt performance, rather it, since more system resources used , performance suffers while each cache being rebuilt.

many of these tasks should done selectively troubleshoot specific problems, not en masse routine maintenance.

mac os x job of taking care of itself, without need 3rd party software. among other things, has own maintenance scripts run silently in background on daily, weekly , monthly basis, without user intervention.

  • get mpeg streamclip.
  • open .avi file in mpeg streamclip.
    [​img]
  • go file > export quicktime (cmd+e).
    [​img]
  • select "apple intermediate codec" under compression.
    [​img]
  • leave sound @ uncompressed , uncheck interlaced scaling, footage progressive.
    [​img]

if have several video files, can use mpeg streamclip's batch list:
[​img]

.mov files use apple intermediate codec, codec imovie understands , uses , doesn't need transcode anymore.

Syncing files locally from a NAS


difficult know put post. going purchase synology nas use in conjunction imac, windows laptop , ipad2. have heard , read synology product. question - wife worst person ever @ keeping documents current , synchronised. she's bending ear complaining document had completed on imac isn't available on laptop. when explain (or try explain) why shuts off , asks me fix it? :rolleyes:

anyway digress question. idea when create document , save nas there easy way without copying , pasting/dragging same document automatically saved locally either on laptop or imac when either 1 subsequently switched on? know don't need , perhaps overkill i'm trying save myself grief. :eek:
 

heard of dropbox?

better solution, , means when uses laptop out , about, won't have try , connect nas on network access files.

dropbox free (2gb allowance), , effortless keep in sync. dropbox folder can place on desktop, , in folder gets synced without having anything.

downside if dealing large files (depends on internet bandwidth), larger 50mb, uploaded dropbox's servers each time edits it.

Keyboard Unresponsive/Laggy During Heavy Logic


hey guys! hoping me little programming issue i've been having. i'm developing iphone app convert various base numbers between 1 (binary octal, example). have set multiple text fields, each field representing different base system. user can input of these text fields, , input's converted value reflected appropriate other text field (for example, if user typed in 101 in binary field, octal field read 5. works fine, until higher numbers. see, have set numbers convert live user types, , due heavy amount of string manipulation have going, begins slow app down input number gets longer. , result, keyboard input becomes laggy - on older devices - freezing during execution of number conversion code, becoming responsive.

kind of issue, if user inputs large number, take long time them input whole thing, between typing , waiting keyboard become responsive. therefore, wanted know if there way around this? maybe give priority keyboard above else? saw other app converts length values in same ui way mine does, though in app, when numbers large, updating of text fields slow down, keyboard input never gets laggy! it's if keyboard living in own world, unaffected whatever other logic going on in background.

please, if knows this, please give me hand. always, appreciated!

Advice for secondary machine needed


my boss asked me if need new computer office... don't know do.

background:

i've considered of following:
1. external (thunderbolt) display
2. mbp 15/17 don't have use own machine
3. 13'' mba (+ external screen?)
4. imac
5. windows/linux desktop

things would, in 1 or other way, me:
- large screen, or second screen
- data backup, or full mirror of working machine
- less weight carry around

5. useless. 2. great if mbp old, right wouldn't benefit much. mba lacks ram everyday use.

how easy keep 2 osx lion machines synchronized? leave mbp @ home, work on imac, , come home , continue work on mbp next day, without excessive copying? i'm using dropbox, , of files relatively small.

guess question whether benefit more imac or external display. i'm open other suggestions useful setup, , synchronizing.

:)
 

you mention burden of carrying around mbp, big consideration? if it's no-brainer: imac.

keeping them in sync of challenge, not if have dropbox. in fact that's i'm working on after getting new mbp, keeping , white macbook in sync. i'm upping dropbox account, should cover since of work i'd doing on macbook otherwise on remote servers.

said, considering using mbp everything. keeping multiple computers up, right i'm @ 3 laptops (mbp, macbook, , hp elitebook 8440p that's on it's way out) plus servers plus desktop gets annoying. i'd have 1 laptop, , hosted servers , done it. i'm on go, having in 1 spot instead of realizing needed edit video , left mbp @ home.. idea.

hope helps. personal opinon, though, have them thunderbolt display, external kb & mouse, , backup drive.

the results won't show in results text field. :mad:

i'm confident of connections set correctly, , have properties set public.
 

i'll remind again:

please don't make me have anymore.

and, yes, can edit title of thread after it's been posted.

Incase Oragami Workstation = Awesome!


picked @ best buy today ($30) , i'm loving it! use ipad lot while either reclined on couch or while laying in bed , hated having hold ipad 1 hand while , hated typing more.

had spare apple bluetooth keyboard laying around perfect. sturdy, angle perfect (there adjustability in angle depending on how connect velcro in back) , importantly, , reason didn't want 1 of other keyboard cases out there, fact compatible tablet, won't obsolete when change next ipad. plus, use apple keyboard better other ipad keyboard case out there since pretty tiny in size.

love having cmd+c/v again via actual keys , being able use arrow keys when typing/editing something.

1 thing love sturdy hinge position @ whatever angle want, pretty awesome , don't know why there isn't 1 available out there.

Keeping email "new" on home computer after checking on iPhone


hi there -

have things set can check email @ home on laptop , on iphone.

there setting somewhere allow me keep emails on laptop "new" though i've checked them on iphone?

in advance!

cynthia
 

do need messages (so remember @ them later), or universally emails?

on individual basis, mark particular ones "unread".

on general basis, not unless use pop3 instead of imap email interface on home computer. that's not ideal though.

my macbook unibody 13" got wet


hello everyone
have problem
yesterday macbook unibody white 13" got wet water.
have removed battery , put upside-down.
21 hours after macbook got wet tried start , works good, keyboard works aswell good.
turned off , removed battery again because read there might problems, water may still inside beucase never evaporates macbook.
should do? there chance water destroies macbook?
 

yes, make absolutely sure there no moisture in macbook.

first off remember pure water (not tap water) pure water in distilled water not conduct electricity therefore pure water cannot damage electronics passing on them. (rust matter in sitting water).

take rice , put macbook in big plastic bag rice , let rice pull moisture out of machine couple of days. rice pull water or moisture out.

let coffee spill on desk once old type mac mini. coffee got inside of mini through underside of machine.

took mini apart , "washed" coffee off distilled water. put mini in bag rice 3 days.

worked fine after forever.

Memory leak on MBA?


hello,

perhaps i'm in wrong forum post this, here goes anyways.

experiencing believe memory leak on 2011 mba. when boot up, i'm using around 1.2 gb of memory according desktop monitor. after while, using different programs, opening , closing them, end having majority of memory in "used" state, when programs have been shut down via quit. i'm wondering if normal lion , or 2011 mba's.

currently, according desktop monitor, have following memory usage.
used: 2.71 gb
free 904 mb
wired: 1.07 gb
active 1.64 gb
inactive 413 mb

advice/tips be appriecated, can notice program performance issues when i've got high amount of used memory.

ps - i'm going reboot , post desktop monitor saying fresh boot.

edit: fresh boot follows:
used: 1.29
free: 2.53
wired: 832 mb
active: 506 mb
inactive: 413 mb
 

lion uses lot of ram cache on startup, , continues cache ram use more apps. when app asks more ram current free amount, lion frees cache , allocates accordingly.

cache make sure things remain zippy , fast across. it's normal.

on side note, if have more 4gb of ram, it'll show 1.5gb 2gb used on startup. that's normal. windows 7 that, too.
