About X Window

Now we contemplate an upgrade from Solaris 8 to 10.
What kind of case are the operations of "X Window" needed when upgrading from 8 to 10 ?
In the following cases, we need the operations of X Window.
*installation and maintainance(?) of business softwares (ex: Oracle, Cisco, SMC...)
*a command can't use Solaris 10, previous version used it.
If it is necessaly to operate X window, any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks

In the following cases, we need the operations of X Window.
*installation and maintainance(?) No, you can install Solaris in "Text" mode with no GUI needed. The same goes for maintenance issues. You can perform maintenance tasks via telnet or ssh.
of business softwares (ex: Oracle, Cisco, SMC...)If it's something like SMC, which is a GUI tool, you could just export the display to another machine and run the gui on the non server machine
Some tools run a "Server" component on one machine and let you connect via a "Client" from another machine. The downside being the need to run additional software on the server but the software might be "Lighter" (for lack of a better word) on the machine then full blown X.
If it is necessaly to operate X window, any suggestions would be appreciated.Some environments work in a "Lights out" environment and Unix is ideal in this situation.

Advice on which Mac laptop to buy / Advice about using WIndows on it.

I'd appreciate some advice on which replacement laptop to get for someone in my family who just needs e-mail, the Internet, and iPhoto--something simple, small, and portable, like the iBook or the MacBook Combo. However, he has just complicated matters by saying that he'd like to be able to use Windows on his new computer (yech).
I don't know anything about using Windows on a Mac, not even whether this feature is now built into all Macs or not. A recent post I found on virtualization (February, 2006) quotes Microsoft as saying that Virtual PC won't run on an Intel-based Mac (MacBook), though it will on the iBook and the Powerbook.
Here are the questions I'm trying to answer: (a) Is running Windows on the MacBook Combo an issue? If Microsoft doesn't make virtualization for the MacBook, are there other companies who do? (b) Are there features/lack of features on a MacBook that mean it makes more sense to get the least-expensive iBook instead or vice-versa? Again, simplicity and ease of use are the goal here, not state-of-the-art technology. (c) Can you even buy a new iBook or Powerbook any more, since the Apple website seems to feature only the MacBook?
Thanks in advance for suggestions about any of this!

For what your
family member want to do the 1.83GHz MacBook will be
just fine. Just be aware that if they want to write
DVDs at any time they will have to purchase an
external DVD writer.
As for Windows, there are two options for running
Windows on a …
1) Use Apple's software, Boot Camp…
http://www.apple.com/macosx/bootcamp/
… which provides the ability to use you MacBook as a
Windows computer. Please note that a restart will be
required and only one OS will be available at any one
time. Additionally it is suggested that at least a
20GB larger drive be purchased to accomodate the
Windows partition.
2) Use Parallels…
http://www.parallels.com/
… which uses Virtualisation Technology. This allows
Windows to be used under Mac OS X just like Virtual
PC did with the PowerPC Macs. While this is far more
convenient it's performance does not match that of
Boot Camp although it is still rather snappy for more
requirements. It does vost money where Boot Camp is
free. Again, a larger drive is recommended.
For both Parallels and Boot Camp Windows will operate
at native PC speeds so do not consider an iBook or
PowerBook.
Thanks, that's helpful. One more question, now that I've looked at the MacBook more carefully: We use dial-up for e-mail and the Internet; this works very well for us and we have no immediate plans to change. Since the MacBook has no internal modem, would you or anyone else reading this say the Apple USB external modem works as advertised?
I see that the Apple USB modem gets very mixed reviews--some people say it's fine, others seem to find it slower than the internal version, and several think it's a piece of junk.
Would you (or anyone else reading this) have any experience using the Apple USB modem for dial-up connection? [That's not meant to be an insult. :-)] Would we now have to expect our dial-up connections to be slower than before? Or do we just have to be sure we have the right settings, compatible server, etc.? Or is the problem Apple's product, and would a 3rd-party product work better?

Does Verizon really care about the windows phones??

I recently bought the Nokia 928 and as a "tech-impaired" person I am really happy with it. This is my second smart phone and I find it much easier to navigate than my Motorola Droid 3. My co-worker (who is similarly impaired!) wanted to update to her first smart phone and had visited her local Verizon store to browse the various phones. All that was EVER mentioned to her or shown were various Razrs, the Samsung Galaxies, and of course I-phones. She saw the 928 demo phone there but it was never even offered as a choice so she didn't ask about it. When she saw my phone she asked my thoughts, and asked to "play" with it. I showed her some of the things she could do that I have found to be not difficult. Bottom line she decided she liked the ease of operation, knew she did NOT need Suri and thought the Samsung Galaxy S 4 had way too many features for what she would ever need. She went back to the store and they did not even have a 928 in stock. They did order her one, but she said that I knew way more about what the phone could do than anyone there. I told her to ask about the 25 dollar gift certificate available through the end of June that could be used for Microsoft apps, they knew NOTHING about that either. When I bought my phone I asked the store rep who was helping me (in a different town) and she was also unaware of it; but at least she found out and helped me set up a Microsoft account and got the certificate onto my phone. She laughed and admitted she really knew very little about the Windows phone set up. It really does seem that Verizon just doesn't care much about this platform and does not give their customers this choice since they virtually ignore that it even exists.

Thats why I normally do not get involved with writing on message boards, especially corporate boards, too many company employees write comments like that on behalf of their office…and yes, cellular service and home communications services are a little more that a “soda” and yes, I do expect loyalty to be a two way street….end of thread, unsubscribed from this farce….

I Need To Know Some Information About Installing Windows On A Macbook Pro 13

Hello !
Actually Playing My Favourite Games Is A Problem Because I Can't Find DVD Games (Mac Version) For My Macbook Pro So I Found Out That You Can Install Windows 7 Software On A Mac But I Wanted To Know Some Information Like :
- I Know That I Can Install It Using Boot Camp But I'll Need A Windows 7 DVD So Is There Some Specialized Version For Mac ? Or I Just Need A Normal Windows 7 DVD For PC ?
- If I Installed Windows 7, Will I Lose The Mac OS X Lion ? Or I Can Have Both Softwares Together At The Same Time ?
- If I Installed Windows 7, Will It Have The Same Specifications Of Macbook Pro 13 ? (Ex: 2.4 GHz Processor)
- If I Installed Windows 7 And I Already Had Mac OS X Lion, Will The Macbook Lag Or It Will Work Properly ?
- If There's Any More Info That You Know About Installing Windows 7 On A Macbook Pro 13, Please Provide Me With It, Thanks!

This really is a forum about the MacBook Pro hardware. The best place to ask your questions would be the Windows/BootCamp forum. Your MacBook Pro 13 has one weakness that's going to make gaming a bad experience. It has an integrated Intel HD graphics processor, whereas the higher end MacBook Pro's have discrete ATI graphics processors. But the forum will help you out.

Get Information About Open Windows

Hi everyone!!!!
I'm trying to make some kind of bot, the primary Idea is to automatize tasks. To do this, it would be really usefull to have information about the windows that are open, for example, if I open the notepad, It has a title, width, height, 1 menu with file help, etc. and it also has 1 control inside, 1 text area with with, height, etc.
So I know this can be done in Windows with the handler, I would like to know if there is a way to do this in JAVA and how.
There's a software called AutoIt, that has a small program called AutoIt v3 Window Info. This software shows the info I need, using the Finder Tool, but I need to make my own.
Thanks for any reply.
Daniel

Not in Java.
You could possibly write some JNI that interfaces with the relevant MS Windows API,
but that is no longer Java.

Microsoft opens up about more Windows 10 preview features in the works

Microsoft opens up about more Windows 10 preview features in the works
Carey Frisch

From that article:
Belfiore did officially acknowledge some of the coming Windows 10 under-the-cover features that were disclosed early in a Microsoft blog post which was later pulled —such as the fact
a Microsoft Account won't be required for login (users will be able to use Azure Active Directory for single sign-on instead).
Is there seriously any possibility that a true local account won't be possible?
That's "last straw" material. Microsoft needs to be careful.

Doubt about webDynpro windows

HI Experts,
I have small doubt about webdynpro windows.
1) If i have only one application in webdynpro DC , what is use of using multiple windows.
2) If i have multiple windows in a DC which has single application, how i can i navigate between windows?
3)if i have multiple applications with multiple windows, then how will i know which window belongs to which application.
4)If i have multiple windows and multiple applications, then how can we navigate between windows? It means navigation betn windows and navigation betn applications...?
Please explain me, i browsed in SDN, i found the threads but they are explaining my doubts exactly
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Bala

Hi.
Simply the Window is part of Web Dynpros public interfaces, and are needed whenever you want to access a graphic component from outside of your web dynpro component.
Web Dynpro uses the MVC design pattern. Model View Control.
In order to reuse components, Web Dynpro exposes the View and Controller to the outside world.
Internally the View and Control in MVC is just that:
Views
Component Controller and Custom Controller.
Externally the View and Control are exposed as
Interface Controller and Interface Views. The Interface View is the external part of a Window. (When a Window is created, an associated Interface View is created).
So, to be able to actually see anything from a Web Dynpro application. The browser would access a Interface View that opens the Window with some view in it.
An other example is that you have two Web Dynpro projects, where the first one have a View with an integrated view from the second Web Dynpro. The integration would be through the Interface View again.
Internally in your Web Dynpro component, you can use the views directly (i.e. navigate between views).
Opening an external popup would generate a new browser window. In order for the new browser window to display anything it would need to access an interface view. That's why you need to create a separate Window when you want to use a popup.
Regards.

Want to upgrade to lastest version - help/about Firefox window does not show "upgrade" as in instructions.

I want to upgrade to latest version but -Help/About Firefox- window does not show "upgrade" as in the instructions. I cannot find an "upgrade" function anywhere else. How do I upgrade? The version I have is -18.0.1- it came with this used computer.
I believe this computer was hacked. Word started doing very strange things. We wiped the hard drive and reloaded everything as it was originally when I bought it. I am now getting hacked online.
They originally got into one of my credit cards last fall. That is when this all started. They got my AOL email address. They also got the credit card current balance, minimum payment, due date and then even the payment amount. They got into my Barnes & Noble account and now checkout does not work. Now I believe they have gotten into my AOL account - one thing after another has started going wrong. I cannot change that AOL user id/email address since it is the master and I would lose about 15 years of "stuff".
The folks that sold me this computer told me to use a free version of an antivirus. I am very unhappy with it. I never had ANY trouble when I used TrendMicro's expense products. Those folks also told me to use Firefox, since AOL uses Internet Explorer - which I already knew is like Swiss cheese.
Now, I cannot seem to get an upgrade of Firefox. Is this also a hack?
Please help any way you can. Thank you for your time.

It's probably just the Firefox updater having some problems. go to www.getfirefox.com and download Firefox 20.0.1

Question about CS3 & Windows 7...

I'm actually asking for a friend. They have CS3 Master Collection and they are running Windows XP SP3. They want to upgrade their system to a Windows 7, but they don't want to be out of the Adobe products either, especially after the price they paid for them. They will eventually be upgrading to CS 5.5 by the end of 2012.
However, the friend has heard mixed feedback about it. Some people who have installed it on their Win7 system said it WORKED, but it made their system performance DRAG. Other people have said that it WILL NOT install... it gives errors and will not activate.
Has anyone successfully installed Photoshop CS3/CS3 Master Collection on a Windows 7 system? Will my friend need to run the programs in 'Compatibility for Windows XP' mode?
Thanks for any info you can provide!

I have been looking now for several weeks, months even for some resolve to the known issues. There are posts about the pdf printer that does not work in windows 7 on the adobe's tech site.. I just wanted geminigirl6879 to know that they may run into issues. Forums are for that reason and the idea that you want to sensor replies to the ligitmate question a user may have really defeats the purpose. I have called Tech Support on my issues, posted on forums and scoured the internet, all i can find is that Adobe does not support windows 7 and cs3. Not only that, the posts i read about CS5.5 on widows 7 concerns me about adobe and their attitude to us smaller users.

Instructions immediately talk about Firefox Window, but doesn't say how to get this window.

It's taken me almost an hour to get to this point. I am technologically challenged. I have an old version of Firefox. The instructions immediately launch into the "Firefox Window" but says nothing about how to get to this window. Where is this window? Maybe I should just download Opera?

What instructions are you talking about and what do you want to accomplish?
Note that it is not safe to use such an outdated Firefox version that has known disclosed security vulnerabilities, so please update to the current Firefox 33 release.

Question about use Windows Installer SDK

Hi,
I want to Use C# code to read .MSP file and get inside file list. Such as: you can get a hotfix from here
https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/3000847 and after extract the exe you can get a .MSP file. And 3 DLL files are including in the .MSP file.
What I want is Use C# code to read the .MSP file and get the 3 DLL file name. Here is how to read it with C++:
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/aa816375%28v=vs.85%29.aspx?f=255&MSPPError=-2147217396
But I don't konw about C++, So I'm trying use C# code to call Windows SDK. And I import the Windows SDK code into C# like below:
[DllImport("msi",
CharSet = CharSet.Auto)]
internal
static
extern
uint MsiGetPatchFileList(string
szProductCode, string szPatchList,
out
uint cFiles,
out
IntPtr phFileRecords);
My question is that: How to get the parameter information, such as
szProductCode. How to read the file information from phFileRecords in C# code?
Best regards,

Hello,
For MSI APIs, you could refer to
Installer Function Reference
It has helped us separate them to multiple parts. Like for getting product code, we could refer to
Product Query Functions part, like the
MsiGetProductProperty .
For getting file information, then refer to File Query Functions
part.

Question about installing windows in macbook

i've heard about a lot of things, something about os x, paralle, bootcamp...
wt are those? do i need to install ALL of those things? are those expensive stuff??
the main point of me installing windows is so that my kids can play their PC game, which is the best?

Actually the newest version of parallels allows you
to play games with 3D acceleration,
There are games that play under windows in BootCamp that will still not play under windows in Parallels. I have a Windows Game Pirates that uses a play disk. It works perfectly under Bootcamp but will not work under Paralells. It has problems reading the game disk while in Paralells.

Question about Setting Window Title/the use of AVWindowSetTitle()

Hi everyone,
I have a question about setting the title of the window in which the Acrobat viewer normally opens a PDF file. The documentation states that AVWindowSetTitle() cannot be used in this case. However, using it has worked with versions of Acrobat/Reader up until and including version 8.
Everything breaks down starting with Acrobat 9.
According to the documentation I am supposed to do the following: "To set the title of a window in which the Acrobat viewer opens a PDF file, you must replace AVDocOpenFromASFileWithParams() and pass the window title in tempTitle."
Unfortunately, there are 2 problems I have with this approach:
     I do need to be able to change the document title on document Save, not only on document Open
     I do not know what AVDocOpenFromASFileWithParams() implementation has to look like if I have to replace it using HFTReplaceEntry().
Is there a sample customized implementation of AVDocOpenFromASFileWithParams() somewhere that I could take a look at?
Is there a way to change a document Title inside Acrobat/Reader window after a Save operation?
Thanks a million,
Lana2010K

     I am sorry. I don't know how you tested this and came to conclusion that this works correctly in Acrobat X.
     I just tested our Acrobat plug-in with a trial version of Acrobat X and this did not work.
     When we open a file in Acrobat (doing it ourselves in the plug-in by adding another specialized open) we set the window title to something different from the default file name. Then if a file gets edited and saved (File->Save), the window title gets reset to the file name. In the PDDocDidSave callback we call AVWindowSetTitle() to set it back to a more descriptive window title we need. This has worked up until and including Acrobat 8, but does not work in either version 9.0 or 10.0.
     Also, I just modified the plug-in code to always change the Window Title of every document (even if opened through native File->Open) on document Save. It does not work.
     Please help,
          Lana2010K

Again about External Window in WDA

I have some troubles with running new processes in E-Recruiting.
It is necessary to run my process when I'm pushing the button in the requisition form. I'm creating external window with method CREATE_EXTERNAL_WINDOW and after that my process is running. This chain is workable. But when I'm closing this window with my process there is no new small window which displays that the session is completed.
Call method:
call method lo_window_manager->create_external_window
    exporting
      url            = lv_url
      modal          = abap_false
      has_menubar    = abap_true
      is_resizable   = abap_true
      has_scrollbars = abap_true
      has_statusbar = abap_true
      has_toolbar    = abap_true
      has_location   = abap_true
    receiving
      window         = lo_window.
I don't find any usefull parametrs in this method.

Sorry I might be about to be rude,
But are you/your users crazy? They actually will complain if a session termination popup doesn't appear? You must have the most observant and tech aware end users in the world. Most of the users I deal with install pop-up blockers that stop the portal session termination popup - the ability to deal without it in WDA was a blessing. If your users are really that "aware" of session management then explain to them that WDA handles this within the same window.
I really cannot understand this improvement in functionality offered by WDA is a problem...
