    NAS noob question now.
    how do you transfer files between folders and drives etc?

    i think thats whats putting me off is ease of file management

    Ooh thats an interesting question, that you would think simple to answer. NOT!

    So lets say you have the NAS with 4 internal drives and say an external off usb.

    The 4 drives will typically be in an array, so one protected filesystem. Off this you can have one or more network shares using this one filesystem, each can be restricted user/pc access and can have a usage limit set.

    External drives are seperate filesystems so a network share would normally need to be set up to show the contents of the external on the network.

    So we end up with something like:

    Internal 4 drives = Filesystem 1 = Network share 1
    External 1 drive = Filesystem 2 = Network share 2

    So say you had a file on the external and you needed it on Filesystem 1?

    Option1: mount both network shares from your PC and copy from 2 to 1. SlOW
    Option2: SSH onto the NAS (It's just a linux server) and type cp /filesystem2/filename /filesystem1 (Eveything is copied locally on the NAS, you're well l33t now)
    Option3: SSH onto the NAS and create a softlink connecting the external drive as a folder under Filesystem1. ie. ln -s /filesystem2 /filesystem1/External (External drive will appear as a folder under the Network share 1 , now you are super l33t, proceed to IT godlyness)
    Option4: Setup RTRR (real time rsync replication) the qnap NAS' can have jobs set up to replicate between filesystems. (Not as l33t, but everything is duplicated nicely)

    3 Means that everything will appear under 1 big filesystem. 4 means you do it once and then never repeat it. Moving files under 1 or 3 from a pc will result in a lot of network traffic. :cool:

    There's a risk that the :apple:-logo will break. Make sure it's protected. How much does your head weigh, btw?

    I don't know how much my head weighs. Can I break the screen? I can put the laptop in my backpack, its mesh and only has a padded back.

    Charge him 20 dollars and a lap dance at your favourite strip club for it. That's a fair market price for a 4 year old computer.

    I don't know if this is occurring here, but in many other instances of touting/scalping, people deliberately sabotage the auctions by putting in high fake bids - it's possible the highest of those isn't a genuine offer.

    There is a minor difference - the new iMacs have an ambient light sensor which will provide ideal brightness whether you are in a dark or well-lit environment.

    From Apple's site: "To conserve power and relieve eyestrain, a built-in ambient light sensor automatically adjusts the screen brightness on MacBook, MacBook Pro and iMac to suit the ambient light of whatever room you�re in."

    Hi there,

    If you don't mind, can you link me to the info on the ambient light sensor on the new iMac's?

    I participate in folding@home because I believe their work is most immediately beneficial. I have a tremendous amount of computing power that for various reasons needs to stay on 24/7, and I feel that it is the right thing to do.

    Beyond the "I know someone who..." thing, I feel that it is our responsibility as humans to help push to cure preventable disease. I feel like it is the conclusion that anyone curious about the world would come to.

    The only logical thing, should anything get released, would be Final Cut Server.

    Other related products are DVD Studio Pro 5, Blu-Ray Drives, Phenomenon (Shake Successor) and Cinema Displays. I do not expect the first three until NAB at the earliest. The Displays maybe at the developers conference.

    Apple would not announce Newton 2 at a Final Cut User Event.

    Altogether accurate except for the fact that FCS wouldn't qualify as much of a secret. If you read the thread on the original appleinsider article, you'd get a hint as to why Jobsy didn't show:

    The organizer of the LAFCPUG Supermeet in question claimed he started this rumor. I'm not sure if he was joking or not.

    Fairly annoying really. In all my years visiting rumour sites, I've never got my hopes up about something only to learn that it was a fabrication by a singular person in the industry I work with some kind of agenda (presumably to increase turnout at his FC Meet). But then, that's the nature of the rumour beast, I guess. Phenomenon, Bluray, DVDSP5 and the ACDs will just all have to wait.

    I could see the close or even possibly an overwrite happening. At the same time, that is kinda what I want to be able to detect with one of the cases mentioned above.

    It's a compiled-from-source version of PHP 5.3.5.

    I could be wrong, but I think the function is only intended to be used to determine if the server itself has closed the connection for a timeout.

    I don't think it works for connections which you have explicitly closed yourself, as that connection effectively doesn't exist anymore.

    Just from people that have it installed, are the rumours from TechCrunch true regarding it being a golden master?

    It seems like Apple have a long way to go regarding what they've posted in known issues, so how can it be a golden master already?

    As for as I know, it's extremely unlikely for someone to brick an iPhone or iOS device. You can certainly mess up during the process if you are careless, but you would just have to restore it or go into DFU mode. So I wouldn't be afraid.

    Peter...

    Thanks so much for taking the time to reply. Your suggestion look good and I'm gonna spend the time to look at some of those options :) Hopefully if I have any additional questions, you might be willing to sprinkle some more of that wisdom around :)

    Thanks again :)

    One more question: Is the soap essential or is it just to keep the skin sliding for readjustment?

    The iPhone 4 was a failure at launch. The antenna is broken. It drops Internet connections and calls if held a certain. The glass claiming to be strong is weak sauce and the only good things on the phone are the cameras and screen.*
    Am I the only one who feels this way?

    Have you had trouble with your claws scratching the glass?

    Unless being mobile is a necessity, go with the G5 iMac. The extra horsepower will pay off. The 17" screen also comes in handy when you start adding tracks.

    I don't know about the tech spec. You should be able to find this info on Apple's web site.

    As for speakers. I use JBL Creatures and have been very pleased with them. They come in white and silver, both of which would compliment the iMac.

    Good Luck

    This thing is like Bigfoot: every claims it's out there somewhere, but we never see proof.

    9to5mac is reporting some stores already have the physical units in hand and are instructed to keep them in their back safe and not open until the 27th.

    hi,
    I'm having trouble with vertical distance in GoLive.

    eg: my home page.

    I want to have a certain distance between various headings and sections of www.eclispenow.org but really can't seem to get the "box" tool working properly. Any ideas for guaranteeing vertical distance... without getting into html? (Html scares me at this stage.):eek:

    these Maps enable you to use maps offline without internet connection. This includes maps street names detail. This will give peace of mind when traveling aboard knowing you will not be charged with roaming fee. So if you live or travel in that city, it will help you much in your life.
