New to Tiger - Can Someone Explain Bonjour
Hi!
I'm new to Tiger (stayed stuck at 10.3.7 for ages). I have an Airport network (office). All computers now at 10.4.5. I use Appletalk. I can't find anything simple (A, B, C, ... See Spot run) to either explain Bonjour, what I might do with it, or how to set it up, activate it, or use it. I've scoured the forums and the Apple website and find a bunch of technical stuff far beyond my understanding. Can someone either give me a lesson or point me to some links/articles that might simply give me an overview, let me decide if Bonjour is something I need, and if so, how in the world to use it?
Thanks!!!

I think you will find that you are not using AppleTalk. Appletalk is not used for file sharing in Tiger. It can be used to connect to older appletalk printers however.

If you have file sharing setup on your macs you can connect to them using their bonjour name you don't need to use their ip addresses. If you goto your sharing preferences and give each of your macs a logical name such
imac1, mac2, g5 etc
you can connect to each of those macs using the syntax
afp://imac1.local
Another example say you order a new network printer it arrives. You no longer need to get your network guy to install it. When you add a printer it auto discovers a bonjour printer and it will configure your mac to be able to print to it with requiring any advanced network settings.

New to listeners: Weird mouseListener, can someone explain structure?
Can someone explain the following structure:
MouseListener mouseListener = new MouseAdapter()
As in the following:
MouseListener mouseListener = new MouseAdapter()
public void mouseClicked(MouseEvent e)
int selRow = tree.getRowForLocation(e.getX(), e.getY());
TreePath selPath = tree.getPathForLocation(e.getX(), e.getY());
if(selRow != -1)
if(e.getClickCount() == 1)
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "Single clicked\n", "One", JOptionPane.PLAIN_MESSAGE);
else if(e.getClickCount() == 2)
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "Double clicked\n", "two", JOptionPane.PLAIN_MESSAGE);
else
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "SelRow == -1\n", "-1", JOptionPane.PLAIN_MESSAGE);
}//mouseClicked
/* Empty method definition. */
public void mousePressed(MouseEvent e) {
/* Empty method definition. */
public void mouseReleased(MouseEvent e) {
/* Empty method definition. */
public void mouseEntered(MouseEvent e) {
/* Empty method definition. */
public void mouseExited(MouseEvent e) {
};//mouseListenerThe MouseAdapter implements empty methods of the methods defined in the MouseListener. So when you choose to extend the MouseAdapter instead of implementing the MouseListener, you don't have to add empty methods to those methods you don't care about.
What you actually do when you say new AClass { ... }, is creating an anonymous class. You extend the MouseAdapter class and override/add methods to it. When you compile it, you will see a .class file called something like MyClass$1.class. -
Please can someone explain how to delete and email address that when typed in brings up one name but when you hit return to confirm it jumps to another name. I can't find them in my contacts list but they do come up when you type the first few letters of a name.
EG If I type xyz and the name of the person comes up, when I press return to confirm that's the one I want then it jumps to [email protected], always the same def address.
I can't fathom it out.
Thanks
TerriTry this:
Start a new email. In the To address bar, type in xyz like you normally do, press return to confim, and when the address you want to remove shows up in the address bar, move your cursor over the address you want to delete.
A small triangle next to the name will show up. click on it, a drop down menu will open, click Remove from Previous Recipients List. Then do the drop down menu again and Remove Address.
Good luck. -
Can someone explain me why LabVIEW embeds the graphic in sheet 1 if i specify location as "prueba"? The vi is for LV 5.0.1f1 and Excel 2000, it just creates a workbook, adds some data and creates a chart. I've tried to ask a NI engineer but i receive no answer.

CAN SOMEONE EXPLAIN ME THE DISPLAY QUALITY
I have just purchased a new macbook pro 15" 2.4ghz. Im a designer, i havent even created my appleid, im on my sisters... i made a sacrifice to buy this $2700 laptop.
and Im so dissapointed...
I CANT SEE SMOOTH GRADIENTS.. all i see are ugly lines... i dont get it, for such a high class LAPTOP.
Apple support please help me solve this. ive been reading forums about 6bit screens for this laptop.. i dont want to believe that. can someone explain? im returning this...I can verify that all of Apple's laptops use 18 bit (6 bits per Red, Green Blue) color, which is about 260,000 colors. The OS then using dithering to fake the missing colors. Despite what you have read, they are incapable of 24 bit 'millions of colors'.
The problem with this argument is that, when it comes down to it, the color displays are made up of dithered red, green, and blue elements anyway. We accept that this form of display gives us "full color", so it's difficult to argue that millions of colors can't be represented using the same mechanism. It's not quite 16.7 million (more like 16.3 or something) but Apple's text has always taken care to read "millions of colors" rather than 16.7 million (which you'll still see on the specifications for the Cinema displays).
Just for informational sakes though, these kinds of 6-bit displays don't rely on OS spatial dithering; they actually make use of their very fast switching to perform temporal dithering, switching a pixel between two shades very quickly to generate an in-between shade. That's why for most people the result is usually visually indistinguishable from true 8-bit color, and doesn't look like what you'd see with traditional dithering.
If the OP is noticing severe banding on gradients, it's more likely to be an issue with color profiles than with the display being 6-bit. -
Can someone explain the hyperthreading settings in cmos (the 4x,5x, etc.)?
Someone once said admitting you don't know something is the first step on the road to knowledge....or something like that
Can someone explain the hyperthreading setting in the CMOS Setup - mine is set to 5x, which I think is correct for my cpu - Venice 3500+, but I don't really know what it does. What does that setting affect? I think it was 4x by default, until I loaded optimal settings, and it went to 5x.....HT = Hyper Transport
Q: What is HyperTransport™ technology?
A: HyperTransport™ technology is a new high speed, high performance point-to-point link for interconnecting integrated circuits on a motherboard. It can be significantly faster than a PCI bus for an equivalent number of pins. HyperTransport was previously codenamed Lightning Data Transport, or LDT. HyperTransport technology was invented by AMD and perfected with the help of several partners throughout the industry. It is primarily targeted for the IT and Telecomm industries, but any application where high speed, low latency and scalability is necessary can potentially take advantage of HyperTransport technology. HyperTransport technology was invented in order to unleash the tremendous power of the AMD microprocessors. HyperTransport is planned to bring the computation experience to a new level.

Can someone explain the code for having the Accordion panels closed?
I located the answer to my own question (how to get all the accordion panels to remain closed when the browser opens) but I still don't understand the answer. Can someone explain this?
This feature is only supported when using variable height panels, so you must pass a false into the Accordion's constructor for the "useFixedPanelHeights" constructor options, and a -1 for the "defaultPanel" option:
<script type="test/javascript">
var acc1 = new Spry.Widget.Accordion ("Acc1", { useFixPanelHeights: false, defaultPanel: -1});
</script>

Hi Angela,
You are right, the only way it will work is by setting the fixed height to false. As for the for the default panel option, -1 is not a panel and if you had 3 panels we could have used the number 3 (panel1 = 0) or 99 or whatever as long as there is no panel with that number. If we had used the number 1 for instance, then the 2nd panel would be opened by default.
Hope this helps.

I have downloaded ios 5.1.1 and the wifi has stop working or it would stay on for less then 20min its only 9 months old can someone explain what is happening and if some know how to fix it
I have taken it back to the Apple store genius bar, but they say they don't see anything wrong. Well unless you use it all day and experience the problems when they happen, you wont see anything wrong. But there are lots wrong with it. But this would be the same store as I purchased the phone. And they backed up my old Iphone 4, but were not able to get anything to load back onto my new phone. So, I lost pretty much everything. But over time, some of my contacts have started showing up, although i am still missing over 800 of them.

Can someone explain purchasing, activating and signing up for iPhone.
Hi, iPhone hits UK in November and I'd like to be prepared. Can someone explain to me how it's going to work. In the USA where do you buy the phone - the Apple store, and what do you do just walk in a buy the actual phone as if it were an iPod? And then how does activation work? What is it, just registering the iPhone with Apple or signing up with the network provider? What stops you from just buying the phone and putting another AT&T or O2 sim in and not signing up for one of the contracts?
Presuming that it will look pretty much the same as it did for US customers, it will be something like this..
You walk into your local Apple store and purchase an iPhone, or you can order one through the UK online Apple store (or, presumably, O2 will sell them in their local shops).
You connect the iPhone to any computer which meets the minumum system requirements. It will recognize a new, unactivated iPhone and take you through the activation, which includes:
1. Entering your name, address, and payment info
2. Create an iTunes Music Store account if you do not already have one
3. Select which type of call plan you want (how many call minutes, how many text messages, etc)
4. Specifying whether you want a new number assigned or want to port your number from another provider (assuming this can be done in the UK)
You will then wait while the activation is completed, which can take several minutes. Once your phone is activated you will be able to make calls, send text messages, and use all the other functions of the iPhone, including syncing your contacts, calendars, and music to it. If you are porting a number from another service, once the port is complete you will be able to receive calls. If you are being assigned a new phone number, you will be able to receive calls right away. -

Can someone explain why upgrading to PSE 12 resulted in two kinds of people tags?
Can someone explain why upgrading to PSE 12 resulted in two kinds of people tags? One is the new Group tag (with its own two-person icon) and the other tag is the original People tag (one perswon silhouette icon) from previous version. If person already had been tagged the new People Group will not work. Anyone else having a problem or has found a solution?
jlovettjr wrote:
I would have no problem with using the new People tabs except for two things:
1) There are pictures of people that facial recognition cannot handle. An example would be a profile view. These have already been tagged with old people tags. The new People Tab is dependent on facial recognition and will not accept these.
I don't use facial recognition at all, sorry.
2) The mystery is that the conversion from old to new was not automatic during the upgrade. Hours on telephone with Adobe tech did not resolve how one reconciled the two different tags. It appears to be more than a problem of naming the tags.
As I explained, there was no conversion at all with my own categories, and I was too happy for that. From a number of other posts on that subject, I don't think that reconciling the two different kinds of tags is possible. I think I'll try a new conversion from an old PSE6 catalog so that I can play with the new scheme; that should work even without face tagging. -
Can someone explain wireless internet to me?
Ok so I have a new macbook pro (purchased yesterday).
I don't really understand wireless internet - can someone explain what I have to do to get wireless internet.
I'm currently on ADSL. I did notice that I was able to pick-up a wirelesss internet connection in my lounge room. So I'm assuming neighbours near by have wirelesss iternet (would that be correct)?
Do I have to purchase a base station for wireless to work correctly in my house?
Help would be appreciated.Hi, Tea. Hope you like your new MBP.
I'm not the expert, but I have a Airport Express base station. I plug my cable modem into it, my speakers, and my printer, and I can do everything wireless. Airport was (and maybe still is) $100.00. I know you can get other stations (non-apple) far cheaper. And if others do, more power to them. But I don't know whether they work with itunes. You can get the extreme base station for more. I think it gives more range and may be faster.
It's pretty simple to set up. You plug it in the wall. And then plug in your usbs into the airport. You then set it up by clicking on your internet activity button near the top right of your screen.
As for using other neighbor networks, I don't know what the legalities are. But I've heard it's not safe --- and that's enough for me. When you set up your network, you can encrypt it with a password. I see several neighbors' networks too, but theirs are password protected. You should do the same. Plus, theirs may be slower than you'd like, or sometimes out of range.
Good luck!

Multithreading - Can someone explain this ...
Hi Java Gurus:
Can someone explain this to me why my multithreading worked in once case and not in the other.
First a little background:
My application lets the user create multiple JInternalFrames. Each frame has an OK button. When the user presses the OK button, the frame goes about it's business in a new thread, thus returning control to the use, so he/she can press the OK button on the second frame .. and so on.
Following is the event handler for the OK button that creates the new thread:
case1 - doesn't work:
btnTranslate.addActionListener(
new ActionListener() {
public void actionPerformed( ActionEvent e ) {
txtOutput.setText("");
txtBadParts.setText("");
Translation trans = new Translation(inst);
trans.run();
);case2 - works:
btnTranslate.addActionListener(
new ActionListener() {
public void actionPerformed( ActionEvent e ) {
txtOutput.setText("");
txtBadParts.setText("");
new Translation(inst).start();
);Thanks,
