File Vault using the same password as a user account?

As my computer is password protected is what advantage is there in the use of File Vault especially if it will have the same password as my user account?

Without FileVault, anyone who is in physical possession of the computer can read and edit all your files without knowing your password. With FileVault, it cannot.

  • Tecra 9100: I want to use the same settings in all user profiles

    I use it on a Tecra 9100 (if it matters).

    Is it possible to export my settings (best for all profiles at a time), to copy it to another windows user? and any other laptop Tecra 9100? I work with two user accounts on my laptop (one for businesses, a private), I did all the settings as I want, but in the other user account, it comes with factory settings, so I guess that these settings are stored for each user separately.

    And if it's possible, I want to copy the settings for laptop computer to my colleague too.

    Hello

    I have gift? t know exactly what settings you use, but as far as I know just administrator have full control over the tools pre-installed and utilities. As an administrator, you can give an administrative access level.

    On the copy on another machine I can't tell you much, but I guess it must be configured individual.

    If not, go to tools > Internet Options, click on the "Programs" tab, click on 'Use default', click on 'OK '.

  • How to cut a clip and export using the same file format

    I use CS6 on a Windows 7 system. I have a MB 304, 8 HR record from a workshop that I put on recently and I would like to extract the different sections of the workshop in their own files.

    Here's the info from the source file:

    Type: MPEG Movie

    File size: 304,0 MB

    Image size: 1920 x 1080

    Frame rate: 5.00

    Audio Format: 16000 Hz - compressed - Mono

    Project Audio Format: 32000 Hz - 32 bit floating point - Mono

    Total duration: 07; 35; 20; 25

    Pixel format: 1.0

    My ideal solution is to delimit work areas that cover the section I want to extract and then export it to the target file by using the same parameters as the source file.

    So far, the resulting files have been considerably larger than the source file, so I hope that there is a simple way that I'm missing.

    THX!

    So, can you go down to set rates manually? It's been a while since I used CS6, but I think that the option was there... and something you can do to help, is to say MediaInfo on your computer...

    Media Info: https://mediaarea.net/en/MediaInfo

    Drag & drop your clip on that, it will tell you the exact wrapper and the codec used, including the bitrates & such. You will know exactly what your current clip is this way. Build a preset to match.

  • Make more small size svg file using the same drawings?

    Hello

    I am a beginner Illustrator, so I have a question, maybe it's stupid, but I've still found answer.

    I use the same design on a single document, copy this drawing and when I save the file, it is large (about 5 MB). I was wondering is it better that this, perhaps some option to see the drawing as a file which is located in different places on the file, then he remembered only one form and locations, file size if would increasingly small?

    If I understand correctly, you want a unique description of an object that you can use as many times as you want without bloating the size of the file.

    It is a symbol:

  • Adjust overall color of the process used in multiple files open at the same time?

    I often draw series of illustrations (maps) using the same overall color of the process and later to adjust the value of the color in all the files.

    In previous versions of Illustrator I just all the open files and adjust the color values in a single file and all other files automatically got the same values and could still be saved.

    This does not work in Illustrator CC 19.1.

    How to do this in a way effort now?

    Please tell the history of the ease of sharing 'lost in versions '.

    I asked at the start of the best technical sharing and setting/editing of uniform colors between multiple documents.

    We cannot link to a shared color palette and just edit this palette because the colour palettes apply only to the actual document when used.

    I tried a work-around, which probably works for my needs, is the attached illustration.

    I work with a set of four-color CMYK defined as Global colors, so I only need to adjust the CMYK values in the color chart to affect all the colors used in the document.

    But this only applies to the actual document and does not, when objects are copied/pasted between similar files.

    Instead, if I name the Global CMYK color chart (e.g.Pink) definition instead of simply use process values (0-70-20-0), give me a change to update a definition when copying objects between similar documents. If I choose "Merge swatches" in the dialog box "Swatch Conflict", the old 'Rose' (original) color will be updated to the new definition of the "Rose".

    Yes, I assumed that was the case, and I thought that this link addressed to her.  I would have thought it was more a function of your network and the OS than Photoshop.

  • Several plugins using the same JS file dynamic action

    Hello

    (Apex 4.0.2)

    I created two plugins for dynamic action, say Plugin1 and Plugin2. These two plugins are most of the time used together, so to keep things simple and ease of maintenance that all the JS need to the code specific to each plugin as well as of the common code is in a single file, for example plugins.js. So I download the same JS file to each plugin.

    In the generated page, using two plugins the JS file is loaded twice, as planned. Of course, at Apex, they are two different files even if their content is exactly the same.

    This is not ideal for me. What is the approach suggested in this case? Always keep the JS separate files for each plugin? And on any common code plugins share, duplicate in each JS file?

    Thank you
    Luis

    Hi Luis,.

    apex_javascript.add_library currently does not allow to specify p_key as for example apex_javascript.add_on_load_code is. It automatically calculates the value of 'key' based on the directory and name. I'll add an enhancement request to allow to override this default that will allow both plug-ins use the same 'key' to just load the file once.

  • Multimedia file sharing only works if the two devices are connected using the same protocol

    So I'm frustrated!

    I spent an hour trying to get my Windows 7 computer to share my music with my XBox 360. I have two machines on my network, one connected by Ethernet to the router and the other connected by WiFi. I tried everything I could find online to get the WiFi connected machine appears in the "Music Player" on my XBox system - follow all sharing, make sure that my router has UPnP, restarted a bouquet of services, etc..
    Nothing! During this time, my machine connected to Ethernet was watching me in the face. He has appeared on the XBox without problem. I started to compare the settings on both machines and found no difference.
    Then I remembered, boredom, I had setting up WiFi sync for Windows Phone my wife. In fact, it was this session of troubleshooting that lead me to put this machine on the WiFi in the first place! Seems to set up WiFi sync, Windows Phone and the target of the machine must be, not only connected to the same network (obviously), but for some reason any the $ @$ crazy, both connected by WiFi. I just connected this computer by WiFi - not happy, a faster speed with my wired connection - and immediately fixed the problem itself.
    Then, remembering that, I moved my XBox WiFi network and - presto - my second machine appears without a problem.
    My question is... WTF! ???
    This is ridiculous - this is the same network! Why things must be connected using the same protocol?

    Hi, Edward Petersen,.

    Please contact the Microsoft community. I'll help you solve the problem with sharing music using media sharing.

    Some routers isolate the cable connections and wireless, you can check if you have the option in the configuration of the router to share media

    If the problem occurs, you can contact the router manufacturer for assistance.
