  • Device Manager 1
    CHAPTER 1 Device Manager 1 This chapter describes how your application can use the Device Manager to transfer information into and out of a Macintosh computer. The Device Manager controls the 1 exchange of information between applications and hardware devices. Manager Device This chapter provides a brief introduction to devices and device drivers (the programs that control devices) and then explains how you can use the Device Manager functions to ■ open, close, and exchange information with device drivers ■ write your own device driver that can communicate with the Device Manager ■ provide a user interface for your device driver by making it a Chooser extension or desk accessory. You should read the sections “About the Device Manager” and “Using the Device Manager” if your application needs to use the Device Manager to communicate with a device driver. Applications often communicate with the Device Manager indirectly, by calling functions of other managers (for example, the File Manager) that use the Device Manager. However, sometimes applications must call Device Manager functions directly. The sections “Writing a Device Driver,” “Writing a Chooser-Compatible Device Driver,” and “Writing a Desk Accessory,” provide information you’ll need if you are writing your own device driver. If you writing a device driver, you should understand how memory is organized and allocated in Macintosh computers. See Inside Macintosh: Memory, for this information. You should also be familiar with resources and how the system searches resource files. You can find this information in the chapter “Resource Manager” in Inside Macintosh: More Macintosh Toolbox. If your device driver is to perform background tasks, you’ll need to understand how processes are scheduled.

  • Chapter 1. Origins of Mac OS X
    1 Chapter 1. Origins of Mac OS X "Most ideas come from previous ideas." Alan Curtis Kay The Mac OS X operating system represents a rather successful coming together of paradigms, ideologies, and technologies that have often resisted each other in the past. A good example is the cordial relationship that exists between the command-line and graphical interfaces in Mac OS X. The system is a result of the trials and tribulations of Apple and NeXT, as well as their user and developer communities. Mac OS X exemplifies how a capable system can result from the direct or indirect efforts of corporations, academic and research communities, the Open Source and Free Software movements, and, of course, individuals. Apple has been around since 1976, and many accounts of its history have been told. If the story of Apple as a company is fascinating, so is the technical history of Apple's operating systems. In this chapter,[1] we will trace the history of Mac OS X, discussing several technologies whose confluence eventually led to the modern-day Apple operating system. [1] This book's accompanying web site (www.osxbook.com) provides a more detailed technical history of all of Apple's operating systems. 1 2 2 1 1.1. Apple's Quest for the[2] Operating System [2] Whereas the word "the" is used here to designate prominence and desirability, it is an interesting coincidence that "THE" was the name of a multiprogramming system described by Edsger W. Dijkstra in a 1968 paper. It was March 1988. The Macintosh had been around for four years.

  • FCS Remover User Manual 1
    FCS Remover User Manual 1 FCS Remover User Manual FCS Remover enables you to completely remove Final Cut Studio, Final Cut Pro X, Final Cut Express and Final Cut Server from your system. This is essential as a troubleshooting aid or when upgrading to a major new version of the software. Last updated 09/15/14 FCS Remover User Manual 2 Quick Start 1. You will be presented with the following screen upon launching the application: 2. If you wish to uninstall all components of Final Cut Studio and you have no other Apple Pro Apps such as Logic or Shake on your system, skip to Step 4. 3. If you only wish to remove certain components, use the check boxes to select and deselect them or use the Preset dropdown menu at the top of the window. Last updated 09/15/14 FCS Remover User Manual 3 The following presets are available: All – Selects all components. All Final Cut Studio / Express – This selects all Final Cut Studio / Express components and not Final Cut Server. All Final Cut Server – This selects all Final Cut Server components and not Final Cut Studio. Compressor and Qmaster Only – This selects only Compressor and Qmaster, as these are the most commonly reinstalled applications. Maximum Compatibility – This removes Final Cut Studio but does not remove Final Cut Studio components that are shared by other Apple ProApps such as Logic and Shake. This allows you to remove Final Cut Studio without harming your other ProApp installations. Receipts only – This only removes receipts. Receipts are used by the Final Cut Studio installer to keep track of what has been installed, so removing only receipts is a way of causing the installer to overwrite the original files on the disk without actually removing them.

  • Motion 1.0: Late-Breaking News (Manual)
    1 Late-Breaking News About Motion Motion Clarifications Align to Motion behavior When using the Motion Path behavior, the Align to Motion behavior (from the Simulation subcategory) has no effect. Align to Motion is designed to work with a keyframed animation path. You can use the Snap Alignment to Motion behavior (from the Basic Motion subcategory) once a Motion Path behavior is applied to an object. Blend Mode The Premultiplied Mix blend mode performs an unpremultiply composite—the foreground image is assumed to be premultiplied. Artifacts may appear as result of unpremultiplying pixels whose RGB and alpha values are very small (resulting in pixels with values of 255). In some cases, the hardware performs bilinear filtering and then the blend mode unpremultiplies the alpha. Field Dominance Motion projects with field dominance set in Project Properties, will not be encoded or rendered with field interlacing unless Field Rendering is enabled in the View menu of the Canvas. Enabling this setting will also improve playback quality of motion on an interlaced monitor. Filters Pasting a filter does not paste at the current playhead location. Suggestion: Paste the filter, then press the Shift key while you drag the pasted object. As you approach the current playhead location, it snaps into place. Panning To pan the Canvas at any time, hold the Space bar down, then drag in the Canvas. The Pan tool is temporarily selected in the Toolbar. 1 Particles If you apply certain transformations, such as a scale, rotate, or shear, to an object used as a particle cell source, the transformation is not respected.
