I need help regarding my microphone and playback for a VHF app just bought

I have purchased the Royal Yachting Association VHF SRC App for my iMac and downloaded it.
The programme asks me to test that my microphone is working and the playback is working.
I have been to System Preferences and can record my voice to get text onto Word by pressing fn fn - so I know the mike is OK
I have no idea whether the App does record my voice because when I press Playback nothing happens.
My iTunes is working perfectly so I can listen to music and watch videos.
Please help tell me what to do?

Can we have more information on this.
This problem might be because of:
1. Wrong settings for kernel parameters
2. Wrong environment variables
3. Wrong access privileges to oracle database files and folders
4. Improper shutting down or startup of database
Please provide more information so that we can have some clues. As well, let us know which platform are you running the database on.

I need help understanding export options and optimizing for web

I have been using FCP X for a short while now and have a pretty good grasp on the editing capabilities. What I'm having a horrible time figuring out is the export/share options. The videos I create are typically approximately 1 minute in length and get posted to a web site (we have our own CMS and video player so I'm not using YouTube or Vimeo or anything like that). In order to post them I need them to be MP4s and then I have to create .webm and .ogv files. The source material I work with is generally great, high quality stuff, so I end up with very large output files from the initial FCP share master file options.
When I use MPEG Streamclip to make my MP4s I end up with files that are still quite large and I can't seem to ever get the file size manageable without losing tons of quality. I do not have Compressor, though if that will solve my problem I will put in for the expense of it. What I'm trying to understand is what sorts of settings I should be trying out to get my file sizes to be manageable without completely compromising my quality. And I know this can be done, because the company I work for pays for a great quantity of video work each year (from an outside production firm) and the clips provided are beautiful in quality and small in file size -- for example, I recently worked on a video and got it into the 40MB range before quality went to crap, working off the same material the production company we do work with had theirs down into the teens and looking beautiful!
To throw an even greater wrench in the works, I am working off a mac. But when my boss, on a pc, saves the mp4s I create (raw files -- not what is posted to the web) locally on his machine and views them from there the sound is always off a tad and the people in the videos look like they're lip synching.
Any advice on either of these is MUCH appreciated. I've been trying to figure this out properly for months, and only today decided to stop seeing if someone else had the same question and just post my own.

Thank you Karsten, this was helpful I have utilized the Quality slider and the frame size options before though with limited results. I've never messed with the Limit Date Rate option as I don't know what I'm doing with it, I see you put 5Mbps. Is that a typical setting that I could use?
Using stream info, here's info on my original source file:
Stream: Charles_0023_2.mov
Duration: 0:00:51
Data Size: 96.51 MB
Bit Rate: 15.77 Mbps
Video Tracks:
H.264, 1920 × 1080, 29.97 fps, 15.64 Mbps
Audio Tracks:
MPEG-4 Audio stereo, 48 kHz, 127 kbps
Stream Files:
Charles_0023_2.mov (96.51 MB)
As a comparison, here's the info on a similar clip that the company we sometimes use created:
Stream: Charles_0019_4.mp4
Duration: 0:00:49
Data Size: 4.66 MB
Bit Rate: 0.80 Mbps
Video Tracks:
JVT/AVC Coding, 710 × 400, 29.97 fps, 635 kbps
Audio Tracks:
MPEG-4 Audio stereo, 48 kHz, 162 kbps
Stream Files:
Charles_0019_4.mp4 (4.66 MB)
I'm fine with bringing the frame size down some and modifying the limit data rate, but sometimes I feel like I'm forcing my video into something it's not and the quality suffers -- this is where my understanding of video work breaks down LOL. Any suggestions of how I can get my .mov into something like the the .mp4 above?
Also have you had any experience with mp4s not playing back properly on pcs?
Again, thank you!

Need Help regarding separate GUI and logic class

Hi,
I was given this assignment and I'm stuck big time.
Basically I have a GUI class for a stopwatch interface.
public class WatchGui implements Gui{
    JButton b1, b2;
    JLabel minutes, symbol1, seconds, symbol2, hundredths;
    StopWatch stopwatch;
    public WatchGui(){
         stopwatch = new StopWatch();
         b1 = new JButton("RUN");
        minutes = new JLabel("00");
        ActionListener al = new MyActionListener(stopwatch);
        b1.addActionListener(al);
    // Called to connect a watch to the GUI
    public void connect(Watch w) {
    public void setDisplay(String mm) {
         minutes.setText(mm);
    public void addComponentsToPane(Container pane) {
        pane.setLayout(null);
        pane.add(b1);
        pane.add(b2);
        pane.add(minutes);
        Insets insets = pane.getInsets();
    public void createAndShowGUI() {
        //Create and set up the window.
        JFrame frame = new JFrame("XXX");
        frame.setResizable(false);
        frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
        //Set up the content pane.
        WatchGui Pane = new WatchGui();
        Pane.addComponentsToPane(frame.getContentPane());
        //Size and display the window.
        Insets insets = frame.getInsets();
        frame.setVisible(true);
}I have a watch class which function as the engine for the stop watch
import java.awt.event.*;
import javax.swing.*;
class StopWatch implements Watch {
     WatchGui watchgui;
     public StopWatch() {
          running = false;
          count = 0;
    public void connect(Gui g) {
         watchgui = (WatchGui) g;
         watchgui.createAndShowGUI();
    public void runStop() {
         mm = String.valueOf("100");
     watchgui.setDisplay(mm);
class MyActionListener implements ActionListener {
     StopWatch stopwatch;
     public MyActionListener(StopWatch stopwatch) {
          this.stopwatch = stopwatch;
     public void actionPerformed (ActionEvent e) {
          stopwatch.runStop();
}To get the StopWatch to work, I have this driver class
import java.lang.reflect.Constructor;
public class Driver
    public static void main(String[] args)
      throws Exception
     if( args.length!=1 ){
         System.err.println("Usage: Driver WATCHNAME");
         System.exit(1);
         return;
     String watchName= args[0];
     Class cl= Class.forName(watchName,true,Thread.currentThread().getContextClassLoader());
     Constructor c[]= cl.getConstructors();
     if( c.length==0 ){
         System.err.println("There is NO constructor in your watch class");
         System.exit(1);
         return;
     if( c.length>1 ){
         System.err.println( "There is more than one constructor in your class");
         System.exit(1);
     //Construct the components
     Watch w=(Watch)c[0].newInstance(new Object[0]);
     Gui g= new WatchGui();
     //Connect them to each other
     g.connect(w);
     w.connect(g);
     //Reset the components()
     g.reset();
     w.reset();
     //And away we go...
     try{

          Thread.sleep(10); //milliseconds
          w.tick();
     }catch(InterruptedException ie){
         System.exit(1);
}My currently problem is that when i click on the button in the GUI, it will go to MyActionListener class and call the runStop method.
public void runStop() {
     mm = String.valueOf("100");
     watchgui.setDisplay(mm);
The problem is that when watchgui.setDisplay(mm) is called, exception is thrown instead. I'm suspecting it has something to do with the initialization of watchgui. Can anyone advice?

Need help with IPhone 4S and upgrade for IOS 7

I upgraded my phone last night to IOS 7.0.2 and this morning I went through all the initial set up questions and my phone was working. Once I walked away and it turned off, it is asking me for a passcode to get back into my phone. I did NOT have a passcode before I upgraded do not know what passcode it would be asking me to enter. I have tried a couple different passcodes and nothing is working now my phones says it is "DISABLED". Can anyone help?

The upgrade to iOS 7.0 automatically turns on Passcode Lock....whether you want it or not. You probably don't remember the passcode you entered when prompted, but regardless, one was setup on the phone. To fix, & remove the passcode, follow the directions here to force the phone into recovery mode & restore it:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808
This will remove the passcode.

Need help deciding between AI and EPS for use in XML

I am using a non-Adobe XML editing package/publishing engine. The vendor who set it up suggested that we use native AI files for editing and creating images, then export EPS files for use in the XML (it doesn't work with AI). The challenge is to keep the AI and EPS files in sync throughout the revision process.
My question is around whether we really need to keep the AI files or not. What are the actual elements we would be missing if we skipped the AI and just used the EPS files? Are EPS files less editable? I plan to test this, but I'm looking for issues to keep an eye on through testing.

I'm not sure whether PDF would be compatible, but I would not be surprised if it was not. If I create an image in Illustrator and save it as a PDF, will I be able to edit the PDF like an AI later? More importantly, is there anything from the AI format that would be missing in the PDF file?
Bottom line is, I don't want to have to store two files for each figure, but I don't want to compromise the editability or rendering quality.
Thanks for the quick answer!

Need help asap about point and shoot for inside

trying to take pictures for auction listings, don'thave a lot of experience. have been told about canon powershot and panasonic lumix - could you tell me what will be the easiest for me to use and give me the best inside pictures of objects to list - thanks!!!!

The key to getting a good picture is to make sure that you can control the light and less about the exact camera as long as you do not purchase any junk.
For auction images, you should invest in a small light box setup with multiple strobes/flashes that illuminte the item properly. In order to do this, then you should get an inexpensive SLR. You should also get a small tripod and remote shutter release that will allow you to make correctly focus pictures.
Currently, Nikon and Canon are head to head when it comes to image quality with Nikon edging out Canon since they have recently introduced some really great lenses. Sony is doing OK, but remember Canon and Nikon own 90 % of the camera market and the other 10% is left to everyone else. Sony is having some problems with ISO images that contain a lot more noise than Canon or Nikon.

Is this the senario that you are talking about?

Need HELP regarding installinfg CR2008/Visual Advantage

Hi Shamish
Actually you were on the right track, i think you just have to increase PSAPTEMP a bit and you will be fine. 358 MB seems just too small, i suggest you increase it to at least 2GB.
1. what will be the difference in use of PSAPUNDO and PSAPTEMP while copy is running. ( i.e. what will be entered in PSAPUNDO and what will be filled in PSAPTEMP.)
PSAPTEMP: is needed for large sort operations, as mentioned when you have a select with an ORDER BY clause, or if you do join two tables. During the client copy some sorting might be needed for special tables (cluster tables) where data is stored sorted.
PSAPUNDO: undo space is only needed for DML (data manipulation), if data is changed undo is generated. This obviously is heavily the case during a client copy.
2. the target client already has a copy taken 1 month before. so I think while importing it first delete existing data and then copies the new one.
So If I first delete the target client and then take import on it; will it have advantage in regards of getiing UNDO or TEMP segments getting filled ?
Deleting the client first might help for the undo problem, but you already solved that. I cannot imagine, it will help for the PSAPTEMP issue. As i said i would just increase PSAPTEMP and restart the copy.
One more add: if you are doing the client copy with parallel processes, this will influence your requirements on temp and undo space, because of the concurrently running processes.
Best regards
Michael

We have got one user form and we have got one choose from list and one matrix, on click of choose from list the value will be displayed in the text box and at the same time matrix should get enabled. But it;s not happening in our case. The value is coming in the text box through choose from list but matrix is not getting enabled. We are able to change the back ground color of the matrix, make first column invisible and all but not able to enable the matrix. We need help regarding this one.
Regards,
Jayanth

Hey first bind the columns of matrix to any user datasource
and then you can enter any thing into your matrix
following code may help
suppose you have one column
oForm = SBO_Application.Forms.Item("URFRM")
oUserDataSource = oForm.DataSources.UserDataSources.Add("URDSName",
SAPbouiCOM.BoDataType.dt_SHORT_TEXT, 20)
oMatrix=oForm.Item("URMATRX")
oMatrix = oItem.Specific
oColumns = oMatrix.Columns
oColumn = oColumns.Item("URCOLName")
oColumn.DataBind.SetBound(True, "", "URDSName")
oMatrix.Addrow()
hope this will help
additionally you can look at this sample

Here is a good link that indicate that JavaBean is not only for applets
http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/javabeans/whatis/beanDefinition.html
quote:
The JavaBeans API makes it possible to write component software in the Java programming language. Components are self-contained, reusable software units that can be visually composed into composite components, applets, applications, and servlets using visual application builder tools. JavaBean components are known as Beans.

What generation of iPod touch do you have? If you don't know, see:

If you have an first-generation iPod touch, it can only go to iOS 3.1.3 and hence will not run the Facebook app. If you have a second-generation iPod touch, see:

I need help regarding resetting my mail accounts on macbook pro

What kind of accounts do you need to reset? IMAP or POP accounts using one of the many web-based messaging systems? An Exchange server account? Were they working and now just not working any longer?
You're going to have to be a little more specific in what you need...
