==About this article==
This article provides an overview of Microsoft's OneDrive for Business (formerly known as SkyDrive Pro) [[cloud|cloud storage]] service. It is intended for both '''students''' and '''employees'''.

==What's OneDrive for Business?==
Microsoft [https://onedrive.live.com/about/en-us/business/ OneDrive for Business] is an industrial-strength, business-class file storage and management service built on Microsoft's SharePoint technology. OneDrive for Business provides you with 1 TB of space '''in the cloud,''' a geeky way of saying that your files are stored off campus on a Microsoft file server that you can access via the Internet. OneDrive for Business is an important component of Microsoft's new vision for business productivity and collaboration, anchored by their web services: Office 365 and SharePoint Online. Every WSU student and employee has a OneDrive for Business. Whether you decide to use it or not is entirely up to you.

[[File:windowslivemoviemaker.jpg|200px]]This is the Microsoft application for editing movies.
==Do you have the current version?==

Check Start>Windows>MovieMaker>Help>About... to make sure you have most recent version installed on your computer for your version of [[Windows]].

Go to [http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com/ Windows Updates] and Microsoft should automatically check for updates on your computer.

=== Windows 7 Version of MovieMaker ===

Your Windows 7 does not come with MovieMaker installed on it.

You will need to download it in order to use it. Go [http://explore.live.com/windows-live-movie-maker here for installation.]

::'''SPECIAL NOTE: the current version of MovieMaker for [[Windows 7]] has fewer editing features than the older versions available for Windows Vista and XP. For example, you can no longer do a "voice-over" recording to your movie; and you can no longer reverse or slo-mo the video. These features may be returned with updates. But for the present you will need to use some other editor if you wish to do these things.'''

==Converting FVL or MP4 Files to Edit in MovieMaker==

There several utilities that can be used to convert files from FLV or MP4 to AVI which is the file format used by MovieMaker.

Go to [http://download.cnet.com/windows/?tag=hdr;snav CNET's Download.com for Freeware and Shareware files]. Search for "MP4 to AVI Converter" or "FLV to AVI Converter." You will find many options. Some of the Shareware software requires purchase for full use and may come with serious limitations in the demonstration mode. Freeware software can be, on the other hand, a bit clumsy in design, not easy to use, and can be faulty.

Here are two freeware apps that are reliable, but you may find them a bit confusing to use. There is help documentation for them.

:*For Converting between MP4 and AVI -- try this: [http://download.cnet.com/Pazera-Free-MP4-to-AVI-Converter/3000-2194_4-10784027.html?tag=mncol Pazera MP4 to AVI Converter (Free)]

Draft:Setting the Mac Energy Saver

2015-01-07T18:06:27Z

DSantiago08:

{{TOC_Float_Right}}

==About this article==

[[File:enerysaver.png|100 px]]This article includes instructions for configuring your '''Energy Saver''' system preferences on a [[MacBook Pro]]. It is intended for all members of the campus community who use an [[Apple]] MacBook.

==What are Energy Saver system preferences?==
These are settings that affect how your MacBook attemtps to conserve power, both when on battery and when plugged into a power outlet. The default settings maximize batter life when on battery and provide moderate savings when plugged into an outlet. You may want to change the Energy Saver settings for the following reasons:

*You want to prevent your MacBook from conserving power (e.g., going to sleep) when on battery in certain situations (e.g., when presenting in class or in a meeting)
*You want to prolong your battery life in certain situations (e.g., when you are traveling)
*You want to tweak the power management settings for some other reason

==MacBook levels of arousal==
*'''Awake''' - Your screen is on, applications are running, and all systems are functioning
*'''Display sleep''' - Your screen is black, but your applications are running and all systems are functioning
*'''Computer sleep''' - Your screen is black and other components of your MacBook are in idle mode
*'''Off''' - Your screen is black, all of your applications are terminated, and your system is powered down

==How does your MacBook react to inactivity?==
*'''Display sleep''' - After a certain number of minutes of inactivity (e.g., no keyboard or mouse movement), your screen will go into display sleep mode. The number of minutes of inactivity is set by default, but can be changed by you in the Energy Saver settings. You can recover by simply moving your mouse, touching your trackpad, or pressing a key.
*Computer sleep - This is a deeper state of sleep during which applications and resources will either shut down or run at reduced capacity. In Mavericks, computer sleep coincides with display sleep
*'''Screen lock''' - After 15 minutes of inactivity (e.g., no keyboard or mouse input), your screen will return to the login screen and you will be required to log back into your MacBook. The screen lock timing is set centrally based on MnSCU security guidelines and you cannot change it by adjusting the settings on your laptop.

==Preventing sleep during a classroom presentation==

[[File:EnergySaver.png|right|frame]]

There is nothing better than a good discussion in the classroom. But if it occurs in the middle of your presentation, you can easily exceed the time-out of your Mac and have it go to sleep. Maybe not a huge problem, but certainly an inconvenience that can be avoided by changing the Energy Saver settings.

The default Energy Saving mode for MacBook Air's saves power and battery life. This darkens and then turns off your display and attached devices in a relatively short amount of time.

Fear not, it is really simple to adjust this item. Click on the Apple menu and select '''System Preferences'''. In the second row, you will see a light bulb. (See the image at right.) This is where the '''Energy Saver''' settings are stored. Click the light bulb, Energy Saver will open and you will see a window with two tabs at the top: '''Battery''' and '''Power Adapter'''. Select the tab for the power source you use '''in the classroom''' and it will a display slider for that mode of power.

[[File:EnergySaverBattery.png|left|400px]]
[[File:EnergySaverAdapter.png|right|400px]]

If you use your MacBook Air on battery in the classroom, you will want to modify the Energy Saver settings on the Battery tab. (See the image on the left.) To increase the timeout period, move the slider to the the right. You may want to set the slider to fifteen minutes to match the network timeout. This will give you maximum time to discuss before the network times out.

If you use the power adapter in the classroom, you will need to use the Power Adapter tab. (See the image on the right.) Set the slider to the time you desire for timeout.

In the case of both tabs, check the boxes to set the other parameters for energy usage as you see fit for your needs.

==Regulation Enforcement==

Winona State University (and its appointed administrators) reserve the right to refuse approval for any submitted material that is not compatible with the University’s educational mission.

==Fees/Charges==

Use of the digital signage system is at no cost to Winona State University recognized and registered clubs and organizations; entities and departments within the University; or members of the MnSCU Campus System.

*EXCEPTION: A select group of Campus Vendors have been approved to display signage, and fees are included in their individual Campus Support contracts.

==Content & Format Requirements==

'''General Considerations:'''
The creation of content for the Digital Signage system requires consideration of technical, legal, and aesthetic factors. The technical considerations deal with the system's capabilities and limitations. The aesthetic or creative considerations relate to making the digital slides and/or digital videos visually interesting and effective communications.
When creating content for Digital Signage, it is important to consider the system's 16 x 9 horizontal aspect ratio, graphic readability and balance, graphic colors, compatibility and overall style.

'''Minimum Requirements:'''
Content submitted for display on the Digital Signage system must meet the following minimum requirements before it will be approved and scheduled for display.
Digital slides must be in JPEG format. For an "inset" slide, the optimal resolution is 950 x 600 pixels, formatted in widescreen- 16 x 9. For a "full-screen" slide, the resolution is 1366 x 768, also formatted in widescreen- 16 x 9.

Digital video must be 60 seconds or less in length and may not contain audio. Videos may be submitted in a variety of formats, including: mpeg, mov, mp4, avi, dv, and wmv file types.
At this time, Digital Signage does NOT support including an audio track in a submitted video. Audio will be removed from any videos played.

Digital slides or digital video using a solid red background will NOT be scheduled for display. Solid red backgrounds are reserved for Emergency Communications only.

Do NOT incorporate any element into digital signage content that violates copyright laws. If there are any questions regarding copyright issues about submitted content, that content WILL NOT be displayed until it has been verified there is NO copyright infringement.

===Digital Slides===
Digital slides can be produced in any program that can create a JPEG (Joint Photographic Experts Group) or PNG (Portable Network Graphics) file such as Microsoft Office PowerPoint, Microsoft Office Publisher, Photo Shop, etc.

===Aspect Ratio===
It is important to realize that Digital Signage content should be created in a horizontal format. The areas of the Digital Signage screens reserved for display of digital slides use a 16 x 9 aspect ratio (16 units wide and 9 units tall). This means that when preparing digital slides the width of the slide should be approximately 1.77 times greater than the height. For Campus presentations, digital slides should be formatted at 950 x 600 pixels, @ 72 dpi.

===Readability===
Campus digital slides are typically displayed for up to 8 seconds at a time. Therefore, it is best to limit the number of elements (text and graphic images) in a digital slide so that viewers have sufficient time to read the slide during its brief display time. A good rule of thumb is to “Keep it Simple”.

===Text and Fonts===
Limit the number of characters (letters, spaces, etc.) in a line and the number of lines on a slide. Forty characters or less is a preferred line length. A maximum of ten lines per slide is a good target. Be sure to allow sufficient white space between and around text so that it appears balanced and visually pleasing.
The resolution limitations of the Digital Signage displays require the use of simple, bold text or type. It is best to avoid light, ornate fonts with fine thin lines or fonts with delicate serifs (even in larger sizes) because they are difficult to read. As a general rule of thumb, avoid font sizes any smaller than 24 points.

===Graphic Images===
When using graphic images in digital slides, be sure to use images that are visually compatible with the other elements in the slide. Use images whose formats are compatible with creating slides in either JPEG or PNG formats.

===Color and Contrast===
Other readability considerations are color and contrast. Insufficient contrast between text and background colors can make reading difficult. Some color combinations may provide sufficient contrast but still be difficult to view because one or more of the colors is extremely bright.

===Digital Video===
Supported Formats
Supported file types include: mpg, mpeg, mov, mp4, avi, dv, and wmv file types.
Recommended Quality Settings
MPEG-4 is best. Using a bitrate setting of 10Mbps - 15Mbps is recommended for high definition video.

===Audio===
Digital video may not contain audio. The audio portion of any submitted video will be erased, and NOT played over Campus Signage.

===Aspect Ratio===
It is important to realize that Digital Signage content should be created in a horizontal format. The areas of the Digital Signage screens reserved for display of digital video use a 16 x 9 aspect ratio (16 units wide and 9 units tall). This means that when preparing digital video the width of the video frame should be approximately 1.77 times greater than the height.

===Copyrighted Material===
Do not use digital video clips or incorporate elements into digital video content that infringe upon the copyright or trademark rights of others. Digital signage content that infringes on the copyrighted or trademarked works of others will NOT be approved for display. Copyrighted and trademarked material may include, but are not limited to, logos, digital images, photographs, paintings, movies, videos, and written works.
