If you are using FileMaker, there are all kinds of ways you can improve your experience. Here are a few ways FileMaker allows you to stay connected to your important data:

• Reconnect to the server: If you are working on a solution in FileMaker and lose your connection to an internet server, or it happens to go down, FileMaker Pro automatically reconnects to the FileMaker Server once it becomes available again. This will put you right back where you left off in your solution before being disconnected, so you can continue your work without having lost anything.
• Security enhancements: The great thing about FileMaker 14 is how the security system has been updated extensively. When you are setting your initial passwords, the admin control will indicate how strong it is, whether it is weak or strong. You will also be able to set a hint that will allow you to remember what the password is in the future. FileMaker Pro will also encourage setting a four digit pin that can be used to reset the password entirely.
• Standby server: For those experienced server administrators, there is a new standby server option in FileMaker Server 14 to ensure higher availability of crucial business data. If the primary server does happen to go down, you will be instructed to type in a set of commands via the Command Line Interface to switch over to the standby server. Data on the standby server is also included in any scheduled system backups.

Here are a few of the new design tools available for the FileMaker Pro Advanced system:

• Button bar: FileMaker Pro Advanced now allows users to create groups of buttons that can be used for navigation or as custom toolbars. Each button, created automatically, maintains equal proportions as the window is resized, whether you have two buttons or 60. The button bar can be displayed horizontally or vertically, and the active state of each button can be shown.
• Color selection: One of the most common issues people face while creating a solution is choosing the perfect color for the layout. The color palette in FileMaker Pro Advanced displays colors that coordinate with the theme you have made so it is easier for you to choose. Once you select a color, additional options will be available to match what you have already chosen.
• In-field labels: FileMaker Pro Advanced allows you to simply your layouts by adding placeholder text or instructions inside of a specific field. The text will then disappear when you type the final text you want to have displayed within the FileMaker solution.
• Top and bottom navigation: You can easily move through your solution with new navigation options. FileMaker Pro Advanced will allow you to add buttons to the top and bottom bars that allow you to navigate through the entire layout. These parts remain static on the layout itself, so when you scroll through the entire solution your navigation will always be visible when you need it to be there.

Hey everybody and welcome back! Today we’ll be discussing how the latest software update for FileMaker Pro has improved user solution creation.

For Windows users, the software update will result in the program being more streamlined and intuitive. It has corrected issues that many people experienced in the past, including the number of field repetitions resetting to one after an auto-enter calculation was created, and database administrators being able to lock users out of a file by using basic security settings.

For those on OS X platforms, FileMaker will no longer have an error which causes the program to switch erratically to Browse mode and cause the program to close completely. As long as users download the update, they can look forward to a more rewarding experience.

If you are looking to get investments to lift your company off the ground, there are different aspects you will need to keep in mind. Here are a few tips that will help you secure capital for your tech startup:

• Be clear about financial needs: When you are making your pitch to potential investors, it is crucial that you are completely upfront about the financial needs of your company. If you have a plan laid out and you advocate your needs in order to expand your company, venture capitalists will feel more confident investing in your tech startup.
• Build a strong case for investors: Of course, when speaking to investors, it is essential that you have a detailed description of what your company actually does. You do not, however, want to get bogged down in too much technical jargon, as this can have the effect of alienating those who might not be as well-informed as those within your startup.
• Have business-savvy partners: Your tech startup will need more than just people who are good at programming or creating new applications. This means having partners who are able to communicate with venture capitalists in a meaningful way. As long as you have employees who can do this, you will be in strong shape for forming lasting business bonds.

Spreading positive word of mouth about your tech startup is one of the most essential parts of your overall success. Here are a few tips that will help you expand the client base necessary for your company to thrive:

• Highlight existing problems: The product or service that you create should exist to address a certain problem that exists out in the world. What hole are you looking to plug up with your company? As long as your tech startup is striving to meet a specific goal, it will help keep every aspect of the business focused and as on task as possible.
• Identify your customer base: Of course, chances are that when your company is first starting out it will not address something felt by everybody. While it is a good idea to strive for universality, having a strong customer base will help your business to expand at a healthy rate. Identify the group you can work with the most and start there.
• Market your company toward them: When you are developing your tech startup's marketing strategy, you will want to tailor it to the specific group of people that you are trying to reach. If your main client base is younger people, for example, reaching them through digital media ads will be more effective than traditional spots on television.

If you are launching a tech startup, you will want to do everything possible to ensure its overall success. By planning ahead and working diligently, you can avoid the common pitfalls that can sink new companies. Here are a few tips that will help you successfully launch:

• Grow steadily and cautiously: When you are first launching your company, you want to make sure that you expand cautiously to avoid overextending yourself. A vast majority of startups fail within the first year of being launched, so pulling back on your spending and plans to expand can help ensure your long term success.
• Focus on one specific area: Instead of trying to conquer multiple areas of the tech world all at once, you should focus on one product or service at the very beginning. This will build the word of mouth for your business and ensure that the quality you offer is superior.
• Work with people you trust: While you are launching your tech startup, you should surround yourself with people you respect and can trust. If your company is populated with people you do not get along with, this can harm morale right off the bat, not to mention make it more difficult to get the work done in a timely manner.
