How can i determine what the most recent os my iMac will run?
Serial Number QP6*****VUW
Processor 2.16 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
Currently running Version 10.5.8

You CAN run 10.7, but I don't advise it, buy the 10.6.3 upgrade disk from the Apple Store online and then backup files off the machine and upgrade to 10.6.3., then Software Update to 10.6.8 would be the BEST option for your older hardware and it will run most all of your 10.5 software and be faster than 10.5 or 10.7.
If you go to 10.7 it won't run nearly any of your 10.5 software and you will have to buy all new ones for a machine that's getting a little bit dated, near it's end of life stage. 10.7 will slow your machine down, especially with low RAM.

At your machines stage, the hard drive is getting old, the vents are clogged up with dust and it's going to cost a bit to get the drive etc upgraded. You can if you wish, but 10.7 really needs more RAM (4GB) and a faster hard drive.
But your still subjected to the video card going out etc.
IMO upgrade to 10.6.8 and stay there until the wheels fall off, then buy a new 10.8 machine being released after this summer or 10.9 machine.

When I upgraded from v4 to v5 my bookmarks was lost. I do have the one that is in the firefox toolbar. Apparently I had a bookmarks add-on. V5 changed my browser how can I determine what the program was and if the bookmarks are still there?

Apple TV sorts my photos only in ascending order, how can I change so the most recent EVENTS appear first?
I'm looking for an answer to this, too, since I have thousands of Events, and so scrolling down to the bottom every time I want to show my newest photos makes it almost unusable.

What is the most recent APPLE system that will run Tiger server?
What is the most recent APPLE system that will run Tiger server?
Hi Steven,
I highly suspect by deduction that since the latest 10.4 Server was 10.4.7, that these would be the latest since they came with 10.4.7 client at least...
Mac Pro - MA356LL/A - MacPro1,1 - A1186 - 2113
Mac Pro - BTO/CTO - MacPro1,1 - A1186 - 2113
But if you have 10.4.0 or 10.4.3 Server then likely A Late 2005 G5 would be the latest. -
How can I determine what the type actually is?
I already posted this in "Java Programming", so I apologize if you are reading it for the second time.
I'm a CS3 student coding a data structure that uses generics. One of my methods has a possibility of much nicer results than the default if the type happens to be Character. I have been trying to figure out a way to test if the type is Character, but I can't find how to do this. Here are some things I've tried:
1. Stuff that works with variables but not types, like
if (E instanceof Character) // does not compile
if (E extends Character) // does not compile2. Something suggested by someone in "Java Programming":
if (E.class extends Character) // does not compile 3. Something along these lines:
E testOb;
if (testOb instanceof Character)The last one won't work because either I don't intialize testOb, in which case it won't compile, or I initialize it to null, in which case it will always evaluate to false anyway.
It seems there must be a way to do this. Anyone?If your project is heavily concerned with Generics then you might want to have a look at this extremely comprehensive FAQ:
http://www.angelikalanger.com/GenericsFAQ/JavaGenericsFAQ.html
I learn best by reading technical documents from beginning to end so that's what I am doing (just about halfway through). It's nearly 500 pages in its PDF version so you may or may not want to do it my way. -
How can I automatically load the most recent photo gallery?
I would like to add a "Recent Photos" section to my home page. Is there any good way to do that?
What are "Recent Photos"? Which module are you using for that? If you're using a web app you can display the list of the latest web ap items on your homepage by embedding the module into it.

How can I use only the most recent data in an average?
I have a class which has regular listening quizzes. If a student's average from the last three tests falls below 10 points (out of 20), then that student has to come in for extra practice.
My Sheets are set up with the students' names running down column A. Test 1 is column B. A a check box for whether students handed in the pre-listening homework is in column C. The test and homework column pattern is continued for tests 1 through 20.
I then have an average for all the tests for that student further over to the right.
Next to the overall average, I would like to make a column with an average showing only the latest three test scores. So, for example, the students have just finished test 10, the average of test 10, 9 and 8 would appear, but everything prior to that would be ignored.
I appreciate any suggestions on a formula for how I could make that happen.
Thank you!CB,
Here's one approach. Note that I used Header Columns to make the programming easier. If you choose not to use Header Columns, you can adjust the formulas to account for the difference.
The formula in Overall Average is: =IFERROR(AVERAGE(2:2), 0) for Alice. Fill Down.
The formula in Last Three Scores average is: =IF(COUNT(2:2)<3, B, AVERAGE(OFFSET(D2, 0, (COUNT(2:2)-3)*2, 1, 6))) for Alice. Fill Down.

Where is my refresh button on the toolbar?
Why change the right-click options order?
Are you trying to be Apple?
WTF??
Please help me get back to the latest version of Firefox 3. I would really appreciate that. Sorry to be such a dick, but this new stuff is frustrating because it is not useful.I found it - it's on the right of the address bar - like Explorer I guess (been a while since I used that but that's what made me look there). Guess like all things new, it's gonna take a while to get used to it .... another learning curve, yippeee ... sigh

How can I determine what dns server the wifi client use within airport
How can I determine what dns server the wifi client use within airport
I want to use dns servers other then the one that airport extreme is using. For example I got the 172.16.1.1 (the default gateway - airport extreme), but I want to use the office dns servers, that are in a 10.x.x.x range.
Is there a possibility?
Thanks and happy easternThe Airport Extreme uses the DNS servers assigned by the network that it connects to. Is you Airport Extreme on the 10.x.x.x network? if it is then you are already using the 10.x.x.x DNS servers. Check your Airport Extreme with the Airport Utility and you will see in the Internet tab, the DNS servers used. The devices connecting to the Airport Extreme are assigned a DNS address of the Airport Extremes IP, In your case 172.16.1.1 but all DNS searches and resolution are done with the DNS servers you see in the Airport Extreme.
If you want to use some other DNS then you can override in the Airport Extreme which will be used by all devices connecting too the Airport Extreme, Or you can edit the DNS address in each devices wireless settings. -
I can't shut down my MacBook Pro. Each time I try, I get the following message: "The Finder can't quit because some operations are still in progress." How can I determine what is running?
Yea,
I bought an original CRT iMac two day's before they were launched, which got the reseller into trouble, and had it replaced by APPLE.
This was a great learning process for me dealing with the glitches. :-)
I LOVE MAC. Now own 4 and on my 10th. in 15 years + 7 bought for family.

How to I find out the most recent deductions to my account from the app store (say, for a recent download for additional functionality on a iPad game). Much as I try, I can't seem to get to see my account in enough detail to see what I have spent downloading apps to the ipad.
You need to punch in the passcode for any purchase right, not just for new apps??
If one of the other students, or anyone else, got access to your iTunes Store account, necessary to make any purchases, then they'd have all the information they'd need to also make in-app purchases. But an in-app purchase can only be made through the account through which the original app was purchased. Either your son bought the game (free or paid) and then shared it with someone else along with the account information (necessary to authorize the app on someone else's device), or someone else downloaded the game as well, not just made in-app purchases.
In any case, changing your iTunes Store password should now have cut off any such unauthorized activity, though of course if your son gives the new password out, you'll be back to square one.

Hello. I would like to write async tcp client and server. I wrote this code but a have a problem, when I call the disconnect method on client or stop method on server. I can't identify that the client or the server is no longer connected.
I thought I will get an exception if the client or the server is not available but this is not happening.
private async void Process()
try
while (true)
var data = await this.Receive();
this.NewMessage.SafeInvoke(Encoding.ASCII.GetString(data));

Have you debug these two applications? Does it go into the catch exception block when you close the client or the server?
According to my test, it will throw an exception when the client or the server is closed, just log the exception message in the catch block and then you'll get it:
private async void Process()
try
while (true)
var data = await this.Receive();
this.NewMessage.Invoke(Encoding.ASCII.GetString(data));
catch (Exception exception)
Console.WriteLine(exception.Message);
Unable to read data from the transport connection: An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host.
By the way, I don't know what the SafeInvoke method is, it may be an extension method, right? I used Invoke instead to test it.

Mac shut down due to problem; I rebooted fine. how do I determine what the problem was?
mac shut down due to problem; I rebooted fine. how do I determine what the problem was?
When shut down and rebooted, the Mac OS X does background maintenance on the system. That can solve minor issues.
Beyond this, it is a good idea to run Disk Repair yourself just to make sure.
Reboot with the option key held down. On the screen that comes up select the Recovery disk icon and Continue.
On the next screen Clcik Disk Utility and Continue.
In DU, in the list on the left select the drive to be repaired - click the item that is indented to the right, not an an item whose name starts on the far left.
Click First Aid, then Repair Disk.
After that is done, quit DU and restart as usual. -
