How can I use the F14 and F15 key for a shortcut?

Hi folks,
I've been trying to assign custom shortcuts to the F14 and F15 keys of my keyboard (wired, full sized type) on my Mac Pro 2008 running Mac OS X Lion 10.7.2 however every time I try to assign those keys to an app's "Record a shortcut" function I get the same error dialog from the OS:
The key combination F15 can't be used!
The key combination "F15" can't be used because it's already used by a system-wide keyboard shortcut. (If you really want to use this key combination, most shortcuts can be changed in the Keyboard & Mouse panel in System Preferences.)
(note: the same happens with F14, F13 and lower as well as F16+ work fine however)
I have looked into my system settings as the dialog suggests however there isn't a single shortcut that uses F14 or F15 anywhere in any of the shortcut groups.
If any of you have an idea of how I could "clear" or even just find out what these keys are currently being used for/by that would be super… they don't seem to do or trigger anything when I press them.
Here is another screenshot of the issue:
Note: This is not app specific, I've tried this in various apps and every time I get the same Mac OS popup.
Thanks for reading,
I look forward to your ideas and insights!

Hi,
Use the step reference to get a PropertyObject reference using the Step.AsPropertyObject. With this PropertyObject reference you can then get the values of Limits.High and Limits.Low using the PropertyObject.GetValNumber() method.
Limits.High and Limits.Low will be the lookup string for the PropertyObject.GetValNumber() method.
Hope this helps

How can I use the "Copy and paste" tool in order get stamps in the same position in different pages (Acrobat XI for PC)?

With Acrobat 6.0 I was able to copy a stamp in the same position (I mean "exactly" the same one) of different pages just by using the "copy/past" tool.
Now I am using Acrobat XI and it seems like it is not possible anymore: I am copying a stamp and I am trying to past it in anoter page, but it appears in the center of the page (or wherever it wants to...).
Does anyone have a solution?
Thanks in advance.

Thank you very much. I'll be waiting for you message.

How can I use the battery and let it be perfectly healthy?

Hello everybody!
I love this forum because everyone is a great helpful person.. .. However, I'd like to ask you couple things about the MacBook battery...
I know that now the battery has been improved, it leasts longer and it can support 1000 charging cycles.
(Right now I'm performing the battery calibration)
I'd like to know how can I use the battery and let it be perfectly healthy.
For instance,
1) If I connect the laptop to the MagSafe and let it charge, when should I remove the plug from the Mac and when should I put it in charge? I don't wanna continously waste cycles and let my battery die too soon (it's too young to die! :-D ) .. I use it mainly at home connected to the MagSafe: someone tell that even if you leave the MagSafe connected after the mac has been charged it stops charging (I can see this), and others say that is not a good thing to let the mac connected to the plug for a long time... with the old model I used to disconnect the battery from the mac so I didn't have these problems but with the new one it's a long procedure...
2) I usually use to calibrate the battery once a month... Is it a good thing?
Thanks!
Andrea

i think the first thing to do would be to check with Mackie support. two things noted on Mackie's website:
DRIVERS::
No Driver Required for Supported Windows (PC) or OS X (Mac) Versions
(note "supported")
and
For the Mac::
Mac OS X 10.4.11 – 10.7.1
ask if their firmware currently supports OS X 10.9.x

How can i use the SNMP and TCP/IP together in Labview?

I want to use the SNMP and TCP/IP together in the Labview to communicate between the two computers, If anyone know about it , please write back.

You can use LabVIEWs UDP functions to communicate with SNMP devices. The tedious part is converting the MIB information into the required hex message.
There is also a problem in using the UDP functions on port 161 (default SNMP port) if the Windows SNMP services is running.

How can I use the MPEG-2 DVD format for video rendering?

I have been trying to make a DVD out of my brother's wedding footage, but I've run into a wall. I would like to render out my footage in the .M2V format (MPEG-2 DVD), but I'm not given the option to use it. The only MPEG format I'm given is the .H264, and that doesn't work as well. How can I install the .M2V codec?

You should either:
Render to a suitable production codec and then compress for DVD in your authoring application.Use the Render Cue to render a PhotoJpg at NTSC or PAL file using default frame sizes for your AE rendering composition, then drop in Encore for authoring.
Open your AE project in Adobe Media Encoder, pick the composition you want to render from the list and pick the MPEG 2 for DVD preset.
Open Adobe Encore, select File>Dynamic Link>Import After Effects Composition and then set up your timelines and menu's as you like and select Build DVD.
All DVD authoring programs will compress standard def video in just about any format for DVD. After Effects, however, will not do multi-pass rendering which is required for high quality MPEG compression.

The computer I use for Itunes only has XP so I can't use ICloud. My desktop has Vista so I can use it. But I don't want to lose all of what I have on my Iphone 4S and my two Ipads. How can I use the desktop and retain the apps, music, podcasts etc. I have

The computer I use for Itunes (my laptop) only has XP so I can't use ICloud:(
I have a desktop that operates using with Vista.
I downloaded 10.5 and sought to sync my two iphones and two ipads with the desktop in order to use ICloud. However I got warning messages that if I synced with this computer that had none of my extensive library of apps, music, podcasts, etc. would be on it, I would lose it all.
I did authorize the computer. I knew enough to do that but am terrified that I will lose everything that I have accumulated and still won't be able to use ICloud.
Isn't there a way to do this? Shift my library FROM my devices to the desktop?
Thanks

This is a tedious solution, which is stupid! And some users report an inability to reauthorize a computer after an "en masse” deauthorization. I can’t believe Apple doesn’t provide a list or menu to find out which computers you’ve authorized! Obviously, APPLE knows (or else they couldn’t tell us how many computers we have authorized)--so why can’t they give us access to that information about our own computers??!!!
And for an already-authorized computer with a hard drive that’s since been replaced and upgraded from Mavericks to Yosemite, would it be recognized as a “new computer” and require authorization? Would its previous incarnation (i.e., with the old hard drive and OS) be considered a separate computer? Some users report they can’t authorize a computer after an OS upgrade because of that. Can’t believe we have to do such a bass-ackwards kludge!

How can I use the procedures and functions in my library

hello, all
I have a pl/sql library MYLIB.pld, MYLIB.pll and MYLIB.plx.
How can I invoke procedures and functions there in JDeveloper?
Thanks.

I am indeed using ADF BC to re-develop the oracle application.
Here is my situation:
We have an oracle form application.
Our objective is to try to re-use the existing sources in the form application as much as possible:
1. tons of procedures and functions in a pl/sql library(a file with extension name portfolioLib.pll or portfolioLib.plx);
2. tons of form-level triggers, data-block triggers and item-triggers;
3. tons of database stored procedures and triggers;
After doing a research on JDeveloper, we decide to use ADF Swing+ADF BC to re-develop the application.
My opinion for the above three kinds of sources in our form application is:
for 1: we try to move most of procedures and functions into database(except Form build-in);
for 2: we try to wrap those triggers in a SQLJ class;
for 3: we try to call database procedures and functions with PreparedStatment or CallableStatement;
I just do a test on a post-query trigger on a data-block:
I created a sqlj file, named testSQLJ.sqlj in the test.view package;
I tried to call it in createInstanceFromResultSet of testDeptVOImpl.java which is test.model package,
I was told that testSQLJ cannot be found there. why?
How can I call some classes from test.view package in some classes of test.model?
I read some documents about how to deal with post-query trigger in JDeveloper: create a view with SQL statement, but it seems that it does not support pl/sql statement there.
Can you give me some opinion about the above stuff?
I really appreciate your help.

I received an apple 5 from a colleague he cannot be reached anymore, how can i use the phone and use it with my apple id ?

I received an I phone 5 from a colleague
He is nowhere to be contacted
I do not have his apple id
How do I use this i phone without having his apple id
I have my own apple id
<Email Edited by Host>

If the phone is Activation Locked (which it sounds like it is) the only thing you can do is contact the person who locked it. If you can't do that the phone is not usable as there is no way to bypass Activation Lock. The following has more information, including what to do if the person can be contacted. iCloud: Activation Lock

How can I use the "home" and "end" buttons

I have an external apple keyboard (full style, with number pad and all) plugged into my macbook. However, the "home" and "end" buttons don't function the way I'd like (i.e. they don't go to the beginning or end of a line).
Can I ever get this to work or does it just not function with a laptop that doesn't have that function in the first place. I'd like to not have to use multiple keystrokes just to get a similar home/end result.
Thanks!

"on your hub dont use the phone it will cost you more.when i change over to bt they never told me that i would be charged for useing this phone so i dont now.crafty bt again.when my contract is up i will be leaveing bt for ever,georgesaa."
Not sure why you are charged for calls on this, as standard you would get free evening and weekends and there are packages for unlimited anytime.

How can I use the same thread pool implementation for different tasks?

Dear java programmers,
I have written a class which submits Callable tasks to a thread pool while illustrating the progress of the overall procedure in a JFrame with a progress bar and text area. I want to use this class for several applications in which the process and consequently the Callable object varies. I simplified my code and looks like this:
        threadPoolSize = 4;
        String[] chainArray = predock.PrepareDockEnvironment();
        int chainArrayLength = chainArray.length;
        String score = "null";
        ExecutorService executor = Executors.newFixedThreadPool(threadPoolSize);
        CompletionService<String> referee = new ExecutorCompletionService<String>(executor);
        for (int i = 0; i < threadPoolSize - 1; i++) {
            System.out.println("Submiting new thread for chain " + chainArray);
referee.submit(new Parser(chainArray[i]));
for (int chainIndex = threadPoolSize; chainIndex < chainArrayLength; chainIndex++) {
try {
System.out.println("Submiting new thread for chain " + chainArray[chainIndex]);
referee.submit(new Parser(chainArray[i]));
score = referee.poll(10, TimeUnit.MINUTES).get();
System.out.println("The next score is " + score);
executor.shutdown();
int index = chainArrayLength - threadPoolSize;
score = "null";
while (!executor.isTerminated()) {
score = referee.poll(10, TimeUnit.MINUTES).get();
System.out.println("The next score is " + score);
index++;
My question is how can I replace Parser object with something changeable, so that I can set it accordingly whenever I call this method to conduct a different task?
thanks,
Tom

OK lets's start from the beginning with more details. I have that class called ProgressGUI which opens a small window with 2 buttons ("start" and "stop"), a progress bar and a text area. It also implements a thread pool to conducts the analysis of multiple files.
My main GUI, which is much bigger that the latter, is in a class named GUI. There are 3 types of operations which implement the thread pool, each one encapsulated in a different class (SMAP, Dock, EP). The user can set the necessary parameters and when clicking on a button, opens the ProgressGUI window which depicts the progress of the respective operation at each time step.
The code I posted is taken from ProgressGui.class and at the moment, in order to conduct one of the supported operations, I replace "new Parser(chainArray)" with either "new SMAP(chainArray[i])", "new Dock(chainArray[i])", "new EP(chainArray[i])". It would be redundant to have exactly the same thread pool implementation (shown in my first post) written 3 different times, when the only thing that needs to be changed is "new Parser(chainArray[i])".
What I though at first was defining an abstract method named MainOperation and replace "new Parser(chainArray[i])" with:
new Callable() {
public void call() {
    MainOperation();
});For instance when one wants to use SMAP.class, he would initialize MainOperation as:
public abstract String MainOperation(){
    return new SMAP(chainArray));
That's the most reasonable explanation I can give, but apparently an abstract method cannot be called anywhere else in the abstract class (ProgressGUI.class in my case).
Firstly it should be Callable not Runnable.Can you explain why? You are just running a method and ignoring any result or exception. However, it makes little difference.ExecutorCompletionService takes Future objects as input, that's why it should be Callable and not Runnable. The returned value is a score (String).
Secondly how can I change that runMyNewMethod() on demand, can I do it by defining it as abstract?How do you want to determine which method to run?The user will click on the appropriate button and the GUI will initialize (perhaps implicitly) the body of the abstract method MainOperation accordingly. Don't worry about that, this is not the point.
