    I have a football game recorded on a DVD+R disc that I was trying to view on my MacBook using DVD Player.  The video comes onto the screen, but immediately freezes, and then disappears.  An error message comes up saying that DVD player unexpectedly quit.  My MacBook operating system is Mac OS X, version 10.5.8.  DVD Player is App version 5.0.3, framework version 5.0.7.
    However, the DVD+R works on both my Dad's and my brother's laptops.  My Dad's laptop is an iBook G4 with Mac OS X operating system, version 10.3.9.  The DVD Player is version 4.0.  My brother's laptop is a MacBook Pro with Mac OS X operating system, version 10.7.2.  The DVD Player is App version 5500.26.1 and framework version 5.5.0.  The DVD+R plays fine on their laptops, but will not play on mine.

    Lao Bo,
    yes, you can locate and copy a file from your HD to a USB key using UNIX commands. If you know the exact name of the file which you’re trying to locate, try this:
    find / -iname filename -print
    This command will search your entire internal disk for the particular filename. If you know that it’s within a particular user account, then you can save search time with this variation:
    find /Users/username -iname filename -print
    Either variation of this command will print all files found which have the given filename. Presuming that you’re able to identify the correct file, you can copy it to a USB key using the command
    cp -p filename_returned_by_find /Volumes/USB_volume
    If you’re not sure which volume name your USB key has, this command will show you what the possibilities are:
    ls /Volumes
    Please let me know if you have any trouble with these commands.

  • My ipad mini says to connect to itunes, and I try to restore it, but after its done extracting a message comes up saying that device is not found, is there anyway i can fix this? I don't care if i don't get my stuff back

    My iPad mini says to connect to iTunes, and I try to restore it, but after its done extracting a message comes up saying that device is not found, is there anyway i can fix this? I don't care if i don't get my stuff back, i just want my iPad restored to its starting settings.

    If everything else that you try fails, I would try using another computer. Since you don't care about saving any data, any computer that is running the latest version of iTunes might be able to restore the iPad. You could make an appointment at an Apple Store Genius Bar and they can do it for you.
    If that isn't feasible for you, try using a different cable, a different USB port. reboot the computer, and reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10 seconds until the Apple logo appears on the screen. Then try again.

    Whenever I try to open iPhoto, a message comes up saying that 148 photos have been found in the iPhoto Library that have not been imported. It asks me if I want to import them and I say NO but then it places them in a recovered photo folder. I keep deleting the empty recovered photo files but it just keeps asking me every time I go to open iPhoto! I'd love to just get rid of the "found" photos (I can't open them anyway!)
    How do I get rid of them so that I can just open iPhoto straight up without this?
    Linda

    Open your iPhoto Library package with the Finder.
    Click to view full size
    look for a folder titled Import or Importing and move it to the Desktop. Launch iPhoto to see if the message goes away.  If there is no message  check the contents of the Import folder to see if you want to keep any of those image files (usually they have not been imported into iPhoto). If you want to keep them then drag the folder into the open iPhoto window to import.

    No, I do not mean just the music.  Copying just the media/music files or the media folder creates problems.

  • How do I know a user has been logged out from another screen

    If one user is already logged in to the web application and another user with the same user name and password trying to log in to the same web application, i need to logout the first screen's user session. In other word, I want to disable first screen access right since it has been logged out.
    I have a user log class to record users login activities. A new user log object will be created for every login.
    How should I do that?

    Try to write an implementation of HttpSessionListener and HttpSessionAttributeListener something like the one down below and configure it accordingly.Believe tht should very well cater your requirment.
    public SessionAttributeListener implements HttpSessionAttributeListener,HttpSessionListner{
       List<HttpSession> sessionsList;
        public SessionAttributeListener(){
             this.sessionsList = new ArrayList<HttpSession>();   
        public void sessionCreated(HttpSessionEvent se){
        public void sessionDestroyed(HttpSessionEvent se) {
                this.sessionList.remove(se.getSession());
        public void attributeAdded(HttpSessionBindingEvent se){
                    if(se.getName().equals("userInfo"))
                         this.appAction(se);
        public void attributeRemoved(HttpSessionBindingEvent se){
                  if(se.getName().equals("userInfo"))
                            this.sessionsList.remove(se.getSession());  
        public void attributeReplaced(HttpSessionBindingEvent se) {
        private void appAction(HttpSessionBindingEvent se){
                    UserBean ub = (UserBean)se.getValue();
                     for(HttpSession session:this.sessionsList) {
                             UserBean ub1 = (UserBean)session.getAttribute("userInfo"); 
                             if(ub1.getUserName().equals(ub.getUserName())){
                                    try{
                                       session.removeAttribute("userInfo");
                                       session.invalidate();
                                   }catch(Exception exp){}
                    this.sessionsList.add(se.getSession());
    }Hope this might give you a brief idea of how to go about. :)

  • I am trying to put the music from my ipod onto my new computer. After installing itunes and connecting my ipod touch a message comes up saying that my ipod is already synced with another library. What can I do to sync it with a new library?

    I recently got a new computer and got rid of my old one. I am trying to put the music from my ipod touch onto my new computer but keep getting a message saying that my ipod is already synced with a library and cannot be synced with more than one. How do I access that library on my new computer and if I can't are their other ways for me to put the music on my ipod into my new computer?

    Syncing to a new iTunes library or computer will erase your ipod. Only if you back up your iPod manually before syncing, you can restore your device from that backup again. A manual backup does not include the sync process.
    Disable autosync in iTunes, connect your iPod to your new computer and right click on it in the device list and choose backup. iTunes will backup your ipod without syncing.
    Transfer your purchases the same way, choosing "transfer purchases" this time.
    When you connect your iPod for the first time, all media content will be erased. But you can restore your settings and app data from your manual backup afterwards.
    Don't forget to set up at least one contact and event on your new computer to be able to merge calendars and contacts when you sync the ipod for the first time.
    Music is one way only, from the computer to your device, unless you bought the songs in itunes and transferred your purchases.
    There is 3rd party software out there, but not supported by Apple, see this thread:http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2013615&tstart=0

  • The HOME BUTTON in the top row of Firefox does not bring me back to Firefox Home Page. A message comes up saying that HOME BUTTON URL is not valid and cannot be processed. Why?

    Whenever I use the Firefox browser to go to another site, Ican't get back to Firefox home page by simply pressing the Home button at the top left line of the page.

    Open the page that you want as the home page in a tab and drag the tab or the favicon from the left end of the location bar on the toolbar Home button.

  • When I try to download any app, a message comes up saying that it couldn't download minecraft and 6 others, then it goes to download minecraft and then fails to, even though I haven't asked my iPad to do so.

    Whenever I try to download any application, a motification pops up saying, "Could not download Minecraft: Pocket Edition lite and 6 others". The application that I am attempting to download does then pop up and start installing but beside it the Minecraft lite app appears and then fails to download. It's not a real issue, it doesn't stop me from doing anything but it's rather annoying. If anyone could help me out it would be much appreciated

    I'm having the exact same problem! It's rather annoying, I know. I haven't completely solved it yet, but a temporary solution is going to App Store > Purchases, find Minecraft - Pocket Edition lite, swipe it from left to right and tap hide. The problem should now be fixed. You can always unhide it using View Account and bring up the list of hidden purchases.
    I think the problem was caused by a temporary 'black out' of Minecraft (both lite and full), which made the app unavailable in the App Store for a short time and gave people who wanted to update the app the same message as you're getting right now.
    I hope I helped you out a little.

  • Error :- Another User has altered the quantity of Batch B01

    Hello Experts,
    I have created a addon through which in Sales Order while entering the quantity and pressing tab automatic Batch allocation
    is done row wise for items . This process is working fine while entering .
    But from last two days while adding the Sales order with batch allocated sap is throwing an error message that
    "Another User has altered the quantity of Batch B01 in Warehouse SYD in row - 11"
    This is not my addon error message .This error is thrown by SAP which has blocked the Sales Order Entry.
    I am confused about what to do with this .Since this problem need to be resolve urgently .
    Please help me regarding this.
    thanks ,
    Amit

    Hi Jisha,
    The problem which i was facing is not yet fully solved .
    Since in SAP 8.8 the message is much more understandable as this is happening because another user has allocated the
    batch quantity for the same item and the Batch is allocated for another user.
    If you can try creating a Item - X of Quantity - 10 into two Batches A  and B
    A- 5 Qty
    B - 5 Qty
    Then if one User say "User - A'" opens the Sales Order Form and select the Item - X  with Quantity - 5 and then select the Batch option system will automatically allocate the first Batch (A) for 5 Qty  and the Order is not yet saved.
    Same time if another user "User - B" opens a sales order and select the same Item - X with quantity - 5 and then select the
    Batch Option system will automatically allocate the first Batch (A) for 5 Qty (But actually the first user has already allocated the
    5 Qty for Batch - A ) . Then while adding the Order "User - A"  order gets allocated with Item - X 5 Qty into the Batch table.
    When the second user tries to add the order with Item -X allocated in also Batch - A system generates this message
    " Another User modified the quantity of Batch A" since this batch is already allocated by user - A.
    This was the cause for this message and still i have not found any solution for that.
    Just told the clent to reallocate the batch for the items where this message is thrown .
    Thanks & Regards,
    Amit
