2 quick question please?????

hi
ive just got a macbook pro and have seen that people have changed there macintosh HD logo to a pic of there mac (I.e macbook pro), what program is used to change icon pictures?????
2nd question to check the temp of your macbook what programs is used?????
thanks

to change icons, you can just select the HD (or any folder) and go to Get Info. The you do the same with a downloaded icon (get info). Now you can just copy the new icon and paste it into the icon preview of the HD's Info window. And there it is!
Alternatively you can create your own icons in Photoshop and through IconBuilder and CandyBar software apply them systemwide.
check Iconfactory for more on that:

and for checking the temperature of your mac, you can use one of the many widgets for system stats.

Quick Question **PLEASE HELP** .jar file?

Hey everyone, im pretty new to the java scene but I have a really quick question that hopefully someone can help me with.
I'm really interested in making a .jar file out of my code. And basically I just want to make one. but i understand there are certain things like main class's, etc. that need to be made in order to make a .jar file.
So basically Say I opened up a new project in blueJ. I made 1 new class called "main." Inside of it I had nothing for conductors and no variables declaired untill the bottom part where i write my code.
say i write...
System.out.println("hello");
and that is it.
What steps from there do i do to make a jar file and have it be able to be executed and SEE the "hello" printed somewhere NOT in blueJ??
(I understand there is something about a "static" method? Im not really sure but if somoene could enlighten me on how to make a .jar file that would be great.)
Thanks a lot everyone!
Tom

I don't know anything about BlueJ, but this section of Sun's tutorial explains how to
write a program that outputs a single line of text to the console:
http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/getStarted/cupojava/win32.html
Deploying an application as an executable .jar file is covered here:
http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/deployment/jar/index.html
The first two sections - "Using JAR Files: The Basics" and "Working with Manifest
Files: The Basics" - contain the information you need to understand this process.

About to buy a Mac Pro, have quick question please.

Hi all,
I am going to more than likely buy a Mac Pro 2.66 tonight or tomorrow, but I was wondering something in regards to graphics cars if any one could assist me.
I am planning to go with the ATI card and 2gigs of ram since I do some gaming on the side and plan to use bootcamp for that.
My question is that if I buy the machine in retail store, they do not credit the stock GeForce card and just add the ATI card in, so if I go that rout can both the ATI and Nvidia card both reside in the machine at the same time and be used in SLI mode?
EG: can I get the power of both cards or will I only be able to use the processing power of one card? If only one card then would I be better off configuring the machine online since they credit you the difference of the Nvidia card which saves roughly $150.00 off the order from doing it in a retail store?
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I am not worried about the $150.00, it would almost be worth it to spend the extra since the shipping time on the online configuration may end up costing almost the same unless I want to wait a few weeks for the machine.
Whats your thoughts on this? Is it worth it to buy in the store and use both cards or just buy online from apple and get the credit for the Nvidia card?
Thanks in advance!

can both the ATI and Nvidia card both reside in the machine at the same time and be used in SLI mode
No… SLI requires two Nvidia SLI capable cards. In addition, SLI is not supported under Mac OS X although does work, apparently, under Windows and Boot Camp. ATi's comparable technology is CrossFire.
would I be better off configuring the machine online since they credit you the difference of the Nvidia card which saves roughly $150.00 off the order from doing it in a retail store?
Financially yes as the Nvidia card is ultimately useless to you. One consideration though is the CTO conditions of return, or lack there of, in case you receive a DOA. In the US, amongst other countries, CTo unit are not returnable even if they are DOA so you should check the terms of sale in the country store you would buy from.
Whats your thoughts on this?
I, like many others, bought CTOs from the Apple Store so I don't think it's such a bad way to go. It also means you won't have any pressing need to open your new Mac Pro right away.
One thing you might want to consider though is to downgrade the standard 250GB hard drive to a 160GB drive and use the saving on a drive of your choosing. Apple tends to use OEM desktop drives that have unimpressive performance. The 160GB drive in my Mac Pro didn't even get turned on. It was a Seagate Barracuda 7200.9 if you're interested.

Quick Question, Please He

I'm trying to set my sister up with her new Zen Nano Plus. This is the problem we are encountering. When she plugs in the MP3 to the USB cord, the screen on the MP3 shows the USB connection but nothing comes up on the computer screen for us to drag and drop files into.
I know with mine, when I plug it in the E: Removable Hardware (I think) comes up on my taskbar along the bottom of my screen.
I'm thinking that she might not have installed the entire CD that came with it.
Does anyone agree with that or could there possibly be another problem?
Any suggestions wold be helpful.
Thanks,

Quick question please re: iMac

Yippie! I've finally saved enough. . .Would you buy the standard 27" iMac now (Jan. 2012) or wait to see later this year?
Thanks,
Rusty

If you want one right now, buy one. Otherwise wait for the next model perhaps with better specs.
Did not hear any news from Apple about future products.
Until Apple says something nobody here can say anything.
Best.

Quick question please re: gain/mPress/adlimt

which order ? would it be staring from the top of the out channel. gain/multipressor/adaptive limiter ? thank you

That order is fine. You would want the AdLim at the end, regardless of how you do the other two. Mind you, considering that the Multipressor has gain capabilitites built in, you may not have a need for the gain plug-in.
Just remember to get the mix right first, before introducing any "mastering" plug-ins.

Quick Question PLEASE HELP!!!

How would I get the length of the array calling this? I tried this and that doesn't seem to work...
    public int numRows(){
        return this.length;
    }

platypus1 wrote:
I have an array, sorry I am new to this stuff...but I want this to work on whatever array I call it on. So if i call myNums.numRows() or myArray.numRows() so that it returns the length of myNums or myArrayYou can't add a method to an array. You need to write a class that aggregates the array, and then you can write that method, and that method should then return myArray.length.
Another option is to make the method take an argument.

A really quick question- please help!

How do I find out the MAC address of my airport card in my laptop! Just moved from PC to Mac so don't have a clue where to start!
Thanks,

Click the apple in the top left corner > click "About This Mac" > Click "More Info" > Scroll Down to Network > Click "Locations" > Scroll Down in the Right Pane about 3/4ths of the way to "Airport" > There it is

One very simple quick question please

I am needing to admin one computer from remote sites. As the admin computer will have different IP addresses each time I work, I don't imagine this will be a problem. However, which IP address should I use for the one client. The client machine is connecting through Qwest DSL, and has an external IP and a local IP. When I use the admin computer at the same location as the client, the external IP match and the local IP are different. How do I get to the correct machine when I am imagining that all of the Qwest DSL connected computers on the same node will have the same external IP. Can I "stack" IP's? - e.g. 123.111.11.182, 222.222.222.255 ?
Thanks in advance for all of your help.
Al

Normally you use the externally-facing IP address Qwest will assign to the modem, or the IP address the router picks up if a router is in use. If a router is in use, you may also have to open the appropriate ports for ARD and forward them to the client's internal IP address.

Quick question-please answer.

Hello, I have a 13.3 inch Macbook. All I want is for me to be able to connect a cable from the laptop to the television(whether it's S-Video or with the red-white-yellow cables) and it will display what's on the screen. What products do this?
Thanks!

Hi
You need Apple's mini-DVI to video adaptor. I can't link to the apple store page, but search for "mini DVI video", and you'll find it. You can either run an S-video cable, or an RCA (the yellow part) out to your TV.
For audio, you can run a cable from your 3.5mm mini audio jack to the red and white stereo RCA inputs on your TV. Here's one at random; Monster Cable probably has a good version.

Two quick questions about Library after moving beginning on a new computer

Hi there,
I just moved from Windows to Mac, meaning I had to move my iTunes library from the old PC to my new MBA.
Just a couple of quick questions.
1. When I started iTunes on my new Mac, in the preferences I directed the media folder to the folder with all my itunes music/podcasts etc, and then I imported the Library XML file. Is this incorrect? Should I have imported a different file? Should I have used the itl file instead?
If so, should I delete the library and start again? (if this is the case, please suggest the best way of doing this without affecting my media)
- a kind of sub-question to this one: some of the media files arent showing up in the iTunes library, but they are in the media folder on the ext HDD. Is there a way I can find out which ones havent been recognized by iTunes? Whats the best way of getting them in to my library?
2. Pretty much half of my podcasts have not been loaded in the new iTunes. The ones that havent were ones that I subscribed to on my iPhone, whereas the ones that show up in iTunes were ones I downloaded from iTunes. When I connect my iPhone and sync it with iTunes, will those podcasts show up in iTunes? Or is there a risk that they will be deleted from my iPhone?
Cheers,

The .xml is lacking some information such as ratings, date added, and play count. Using the .itl includes this information but cannot be imported using the method you did.
A complete library is everything in the iTunes folder. By using the method you did you left the artwork behind in the artwork folder on the other machine.
Selecting the media folder in preferences does not get iTunes to recognize the media. All it does is tell iTunes to start storing new media in that location.
Using the method I outlined nothing will be missed (with the exception of WMA) because you aren't rebuilding your library, you are using the one that already exists.
You don't have to re-copy everything as long as you get the stuff you missed and re-assemble it all as it was before except not on the Mac.

Installing OBIEE on Windows 7, quick questions

Dear Experts,
Last year, I struggled installing OBIEE on Linux 5.5.
Now I want to install it on Windows 7 Ultimate.
It will be stand alone, for my own use only.
Both a client, and a server.
Some quick questions:
1)
Does the Windows server need to have a Domain (as Linux did)?
(I'm having some trouble with the same dummy domain that worked fine
in Linux, since it doesn't exist on the web.)
2)
Does the Windows server/client require a loopback adapter?
If so, does it require a static IP?
3)
Does the windows server/client require a static IP address?
4)
If static IP addresses are required for both 2 and 3,
is the static IP address supposed to match, or be different?
I hope these questions aren't too dumb. But I haven't found
anything online addressing them for windows yet.
Thanks a lot!

Hi,
1)
Does the Windows server need to have a Domain (as Linux did)?
(I'm having some trouble with the same dummy domain that worked fine
in Linux, since it doesn't exist on the web.)
A. Not required.
2)
Does the Windows server/client require a loopback adapter?
If so, does it require a static IP?
A. Yes it is require for Loopback adapter and static ip for installation -- Client installation is not required -- You can go for Simple installation in your laptop.
3)
Does the windows server/client require a static IP address?
A. Yes
4)
If static IP addresses are required for both 2 and 3,
is the static IP address supposed to match, or be different?
A.
Please refer my blog.
http://satyaobieesolutions.blogspot.in/2012/06/obiee-11.html
Please verify the below steps.
1. Please check whether are download 64 bit software or not.
2. First you have to install jrockit-jdk1.6.0_31-r28.2.3-4.1.0
3. before installing software you have to give full permissions to everyone on your installation location drive (C drive or D drive).
4.Create Looppack Adapter.
5. Database installation 11g 64 bit.
6. RCU 32 bit
7. OBIEE 11.1.1.6 64 bit
Hope this help's
Thanks,

Quick questions (bulk operations, WAN, provisioning, split brain)

Thank you for your assistance with the following questions..
1. Can I use the "disk overflow" feature when using the "partitioned cache" topology? I need to just do puts and gets.
2. Are bulk operations (i.e. bulk put, bulk get, bulk erase) available in all cache topologies? I am interested in bulk put/get when using a "partitioned cache" and when using your "WAN capability" to connect geographical dispersed clusters (Coherence*Extend). Do you guarantee data and event delivery over the WAN?
3. Does the WAN capability (Coherence*Extend) allow multiple clusters to talk with each other (N:N) or does it only support a "star topology" (1 main cluster connected to N other "peripheral" clusters)?
4. As a result of a load bottleneck (i.e. a cache server(s) running too hot) in a "partitioned region" topology, can I "on-the-fly" add new cache servers/boxes to load balancing my "client load"? What client load balancing policies are typically recommended (i.e. sticky, random)? How does dynamic provisioning of new servers (e.g., adding more RAM to my distributed cache) affect the hashing of my map regions and my network bandwidth? What kind of performance would I expect if I add one or more new cache members when I was close to have an OOM on one or more of my already running cache servers? Even if I was not close to an OOM, what kind of network spike would I expect and what kind of client operation latency should I expect?
5. Could I have more information to understand your "data location transparency"?
6. How do you solve "split brain" problems (i.e. sets of members get separated and later try to rejoin cluster)? Do you have or is it possible to implement a "quorum-based policy" to decide who should live and who should die? We have seen "split brain" problems with messaging retransmission storms in the past and are looking for options.

Hi user614602,
1 - 3. Yes to all.
4 - 6. Those are quite advanced and open-ended questions (and by no means "quick"). Please contact your sales rep to schedule a conference call to discuss your requirements and how Coherence addresses the issues you rise.
Regards,
Gene

Silent installs - quick question

Hi All
We like to confirm if silent installations both 32-bit and 64-bit java jdk installs support installation directory option.
Eg
On 64-bit JDK
jdk.exe /s /v/qn INSTALLDIR=C:\software_installations\jdk1.6\ /L C:\software_installations\scripts\auto-install.log\
We ask because we keep getting pop-ups on options to install but it doesnt have INSTALLDIR option.
Does 32-bit JDK have different options ?
What are the exact command string including option of install directory ?
We like to silent install our 32-bit and 64-bit JDKs with our custom install directory, not using the default.
Thanks

No multiposting, please. One thread is enough.
