Accented characters on windows the mac way
It took me a while to write the accented characters in mac. For instance, option-E for acute, then vowel: like, opt-e then a= á
Now, I need windows for a series of reasons. However, I cannot make windows behave like this. I want windows to show the exact same behavior. What can I do?
You can't do it exactly like the Mac, but pretty close. You have to switch your keyboard layout to US International: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/97738

As soon as video touches my Source or Program windows the Mac Pro (3,1) shuts down
Linc,
You keep showing up when I search for this problem so I hope you can help.
I'm having the same issue in Premiere and Media Encoder (but not After Effects). My Mac just restarts itself as soon as video is loaded. I can start Premiere and open a project and go through relinking media, but as soon as video touches my Source or Program windows the Mac Pro (3,1) shuts down.
I've fixed the problem temporarily two times. The first time I was troubleshooting what was wrong and wound up putting in my old video card and after that fixed the problem, I switched back to my GTX 680. I also did a driver update. After doing that I was ok for a few days so I figured it was a driver thing or maybe the card just needed to be reseated. Then when it started acting up again I figured something was going on.
So I started searching again and came across one of your posts that recommended removing CUDA. I did that and it worked perfectly for a week until about 20 minutes ago. Crashed in the middle of an edit and now each time I restart Premiere it crashes as soon as video touches my monitors.
I found this post because I specifically searched for "com.nvidia.web.NVDAResmanWeb(8.2.7)" from my Problem Report.
Any thoughts?
Thanks,
Darren

<Re-Titled By Host>Thanks for the reply. Sorry for the shortened log. Here's the full thing. By the way, where do you learn to read these things? Are there keywords like "error" that you just learn to look for or is it something for in depth?
Thanks,

Accented characters in LR for mac.
Hi all:
I'm having problems with pictures with "accented characters" in the name. I can work with these pictures, no question mark is shown, and LR can show where the actual file is located. The problem is as following: if I try to sync a folder, then LR says there are x missing files and the same x new files. If I tell LR to proceed, then the "new" pictures loose keywords, tags, edits, etc.
I have the same pictures and catalog both in windows and in mac (both version 4.4), as I'm trying to swicht, and in windows there is no problem. So it is a particular mac version problem. I tried to check the problem: if I delete these accented characters, then no new nor missing files are detected in sync, but this is not a solution (I have thousends of pictures and I want to keep the accented characters).
Is there any other solution?
This same problem has been mentioned several times, but nobody find a good solution. For example in
http://forums.adobe.com/thread/608096 and in http://lightroomkillertips.com/?p=2778
Thanks in advance.> the problem is that I'm trying to put a "hat" over a consonant
I suspect you'll find that, the more precise and specific your question, the more greater the likelihood of getting a speedy and helpful answer.
> Looks like the software only allows the circumflex over vowels.

Nonsense. Nothing to do with your keyboard. Btw, you still haven't told us what character you're trying to insert.
> I guess I will have to use the Equation Editor.
That's an option, but not the only one. Just for the sake of argument, let's assume it's p-hat (not the party hat, but the symbol for sample proportion).
(1) Specifically in Word, you can use fields (overstrike). Go to Insert > Field… > Equations and Formulas > Eq; then type
EQ \O (p,^)
and confirm. (Note that "EQ" will be inserted by Word automatically, you don't need to type it again.)
Once you get the hang of it, you won't need to insert it using menu & submenu commands, but by typing and applying styles.
(2) The right way is Unicode. Currently, Unicode defines >100k codepoints, so, for obvious reasons, it's neither necessary nor practical for most keyboard layouts to be able to access anything but a small subset. You can enter Unicode characters using Character Viewer (aka Special Characters), or, more efficiently, using the Unicode Hex Input keyboard layout.
If the character is already defined as such in Unicode, eg, for all (upside down A), then hold down Option and type its Unicode hex code, ie 2200 -- ∀. However, p-hat isn't defined as such, so it must be entered as a combining character sequence. The sequence is ((Latin small letter p) + (combining circumflex accent)), or (p + 0302) -- p̂.
Unfortunately, all is not sweetness and light. Although this is how it should be done, the display may disappoint. Questions 12b and 12c in the respective Unicode FAQ explain what happens and why. -
Accented characters in Word for Mac: Option-i doesn't work
I am trying to type an accented character (e.g., a circumflex over a letter). Everything I find online says type and hold "OPTION-i", release, then type the letter, but it doesn't work. Instead I get the accent over empty space, next to the letter. This is MS Word for Mac 2008 software on a MacBook Pro. Any ideas?
> the problem is that I'm trying to put a "hat" over a consonant
I suspect you'll find that, the more precise and specific your question, the more greater the likelihood of getting a speedy and helpful answer.

I am frustrated with the Bookmarks. I want so much to be able to right click and alphabetize the list. It's been a year and I can get my mind around the process that's there. Also I'd love for those pesky little icons to disappear. Help me please.
After the release of Firefox 29, several people noticed that after using the Customize feature, most items on the right-click menu for the Bookmarks menu on the menu bar became ''grayed out'' and unusable until you closed and started Firefox back up again. That seems to still be a problem for me in Firefox 36.0.4, so if you used Customize, that could be the explanation.
You still should be able to click and drag bookmarks around the menu even with the broken right-click context menu.
And if it's easier than restarting, the context menu still works in the Bookmarks Sidebar (Ctrl+b to open/close) and Library dialog (Ctrl+Shift+b or "Show All Bookmarks"). -
Why won't the Mac Mini connect to the internet but won't browse
Here's an odd one...I hook up the mini with an ethernet cable to the cable modem - it finds the settings on it's own - IP address, subnet - the whole thing. That's just great - go to the activity monitor - and look at the network - packets going and coming - but when I go to Safari...it tells me that I'm not connected to the internet...that's funny - according to the activity monitor and the network settings - I am.
What am I missing here? I've tried the network assistant - and even my laptop can't connect to the cable modem automatically from that either and it is a never fail - plug and play.
Mac Mini Mac OS X (10.4.6)Try checking the settings in Safari. I'm not sure how safari work,(Don't have my mini yet) but if it's anything like firefox or IE 6, you should have a setting that says "Connection Setting" or something similar. Make sure it's set to auto detect or broadband or w/e your options may be. (Not sure exactly how safari works so i'm not sure what options you may have there)
If those settings are correct and nothing changes, another thing you can try is opening quicktime or visiting the itunes music store. If the internet works for these programs then you are defenately connected and it's a based safari problem. In fact, sometimes simply accessing the net through quicktime, itunes or windows media player (For windows) have re established my connection when it randomly stopped working with firefox. (I have no idea why) Browsers are weird sometimes so try opening quicktime and see how that works out. If quicktime or itunes connects, reopen safari and check to see if it made any change. If quicktime and itunes can't connect to the internet, then it might be a more complex issue regarding your network settings. (can't help at all there until I learn the mac ways of interneting)
Sorry I can't be a bigger help, like i said i don't have my mini yet (Or any other mac since my old g3 non tower :P). Hopefully just opening itunes or quicktime will be able to help you (not sure what it does but it works for me sometimes). Or maybe the settings on safari need to be reconfigured, and that could be ur fix.
Anyways Good luck,

Accented characters showing up as ? in JRE1.3 but ok in 1.2
I'm implementing a database web interface product that utilizes JSPs (on SunOS 5.7).
The problem is in the search form. When using accented characters (French language), the JSP calls on URLEncode, but all accented characters show up as '?'.
However, when editing a record, using accented characters is not a problem (i.e., the accented characters are properly stored in the fields).
Back on the server, I ran a small program to output accented characters and also to call java.net.URLEncoder to convert the characters.
The default JDK is J2SE (1.3.1). Compiliing and running the program results in question marks.
Using JDK 1.2, the accented characters show up fine.
It would appear that URLEncoder is not at fault, but instead, JDK 1.3.1 doesn't seem to handle the accented characters.
I figure there must be a setting somewhere, but I'm not sure where.
Here's the program I used (written in Win98, using standard Win-based character set and Unicode format \u00xx; in Unix, "more" displays the Win accented characters fine but "vi" displays them as \xxx; compiles and displays perfectly when using JDK 1.2):
import java.net.*;
class mine {
public static void main(String args[]) {
System.out.println("�����������") ;
System.out.println(URLEncoder.encode("�����������")) ;
System.out.println("\u00e0\u00e2\u00e4");
System.out.println("\351");
System.out.println("\351\347\356\364\373\340\350\342\344\374\357") ;
The output with JDK 1.2 is:
�����������
%E9%E7%EE%F4%FB%E0%E8%E2%E4%FC%EF
���
The output with JDK 1.3.1 is:
%3F%3F%3F%3F%3F%3F%3F%3F%3F%3F%3FBetween jdk1.2 and jdk 1.3 the default encoding of the vm changed.
You can get it by executing:
System.out.println("Default Encoding:" + System.getProperty("file.encoding"));
or
System.out.println("Default Encoding:" + (new java.io.InputStreamReader(System.in)).getEncoding());
The default encoding is used during the conversion of bytes to strings and vice verca.
Assume your default encoding is ISO8859_1. Then calling new String(byte[]) is equivalent to calling
new String(byte[], "ISO8859_1")
Now if you are converting a character from one encoding scheme to another and there is no mapping
for this character in the target scheme. Then the character will be replaced by a default character
which is (quite often) the question mark.
You can set the default encoding for a vm by passing it as a command line parameter
java -Dfile.encoding=ISO8859_1
java -Dfile.encoding=Cp1252 -
Reading of accented characters in US-ASCII format in Exchange 2010
I finished a migration from Exchange 2003 to Exchange 2010.
I have one unsolved problem. An internal application generates and sends automatically reporting mails using the US-ASCII format through an anonymous Exchange 2010 Receive connector. This connector was configured following the Microsoft recommandations (article
"Allow Anonymous Relay on a Receive Connector",
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb232021(printer).aspx).
The problem is that accented characters like "é", "è" or "à" are converting in "?" when the reporting mails arrive in the user mailboxes in Exchange 2010.
I made the following test :
1. When I generate from the shell in Powershell a mail in US-ASCII format, the accented characters are converted to ?
$encoding = [System.Text.Encoding]::ASCII
Send-MailMessage -To '[email protected]' -Subject 'Test' -Body 'Test mail avec des é è à et @' -SmtpServer '172.16.3.55' -From
'[email protected]' –encoding $encoding
2. When I generate from the shell in Powershell a mail in UTF7 format, the accented characters remains unchanged in the mailbox :
$encoding = [System.Text.Encoding]::UTF7
Send-MailMessage -To '[email protected]' -Subject 'Test' -Body 'Test mail avec des é è à et @' -SmtpServer '172.16.3.55' -From
'[email protected]' –encoding $encoding
Is there a solution to keep the accented characters without changing the US-ASCII message format in the reporting application ?
Best regards,
Pascalhi,
I think it is by design.
In an Exchange Server 2010 organization, content conversion is handled by the categorizer on a server that has the Hub Transport server role installed. Categorization on each message happens after a newly arrived message is put in the Submission queue. In
addition to recipient resolution and routing resolution, content conversion is performed on the message before the message is put in a delivery queue.
Please see this link:http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb232174.aspx

Accented characters in email fields
I'm using this script to have email sent to me through a mail form:
<?php
// initialize variables for To and Subject fields
$to = '[email protected]';
$subject = 'Een testmail';
$from = $_POST["from"];
$email = $_POST["email"];
$comments = $_POST["comments"];
// build message body from variables received in the POST array
$message = "Van: $from \n\n";
$message .= "Email: $email \n\n";
$message .= "Bericht: $comments";
$message = stripslashes($message);
//convert flash line breaks
$message= str_replace("\r", "\n", $message);
$message=nl2br($message);
// add additional email headers for more user-friendly reply
$additionalHeaders = "From: $from <".$email.">\r\n";
$additionalHeaders .= "Reply-To: ".$email."\r\n";
$additionalHeaders .= "MIME-Version: 1.0\r\n";
$additionalHeaders .= "Content-type: text/html; charset=utf-8\r\n";
// send email message
$OK = mail($to, $subject, $message, $additionalHeaders);
// let Flash know what the result was
if ($OK) {
echo 'sent=OK';
else {
echo 'sent=failed&reason='. urlencode('Er is een probleem met de server. Probeer het later nog eens.');
?>
The problem is that I can't get accented characters appear into the From: cc: bcc: fields. For example, when I fill the From field with 'René' it appears as 'RenX' in the From: field. I've set everything to utf-8 but that doesn't seem to matter. When I receive an html text mail, the From: fields displays accented characters as strange codes, like RenA@ or RenX for René.
In the message text itself it varies: it either displays René when the mail is viewed as plain text mail, or RenA@ when the mail is views as html text. How can I get accented characters appear inside email fields too? And also in the body text when the email is viewed as html text?It comes down to this. Since flash outputs in utf-8 I used utf-8 in here too. But narrowing it down to the most basic part:
<?php
$headers = "MIME-Version: 1.0\r\n";
$headers .= "Content-type: text/html; charset= UTF-8\r\n";
$headers .= "From: René <[email protected]>\r\n";
$OK = mail('[email protected]', 'A question', 'René is my name', $headers);
if ($OK) {
echo 'sent=OK';
else {
echo 'sent=failed&reason='. urlencode('There is a problem with the server. Try again later.');
?>
When I view this through webmail I get to see RenX in the From field where it should be René. Changing charset to ISO8859-1 won't work either. I get RenX in the From field and RenA@ in the message part. And when I switch in webmail from text/html to text/plain it says Ren? in the message part.
How can I make it display René in all headers and message? Both in html mode and in plain text mode? -
Hi guys! I have a new Macbook Pro purchased from Best Buy yesterday. I had the Geek Squad upgrade the RAM to 8 gigs (They only had PNY brand, I was concerned but went with it anyway). I had them install Boot Camp Windows 7 Ultimate. Today I picked it up and when I started playing with it I learned that they installed the 32 bit version of Win 7 Ultimate instead of the 64 bit version, why, I have NO IDEA.
So, I want to replace the Win 7 installation with the 64 bit version but have read that this can be tricky. What is the proper way to do this? I'm not sure I trust the Geek Squad to do this for me.
I assume I need to reformat the Windows partition, defragment and then install the 64 bit version of Win 7 Ultimate, but am not completely sure. I want to be sure that I do NOT do anything that could affect the Mac side

I think you should take it back to the Geeks and tell them what you want, I also think you should backup before you do.
You do not need to reformat or repartition, you need to reinstall Windows from a 64bit copy, 32 & 64 have identical requirements as far as partition and format go, defragmenting has nothing at all to do with your needs. -
If I use an SD Card on both the windows 7 and Mac OS (using bootcamp), is there any way to see the data seen on the Mac OS side while using the Windows OS?
Windows Aero style uses a different background image than Mac:
Windows Aero:
#nav-bar {
background-image: linear-gradient(rgba(253,253,253,0.45), rgba(255,255,255,0));
Mac:
#nav-bar {
background: url(chrome://browser/skin/Toolbar-background-noise.png),
linear-gradient(hsl(0,0%,93%), hsl(0,0%,83%));
I can't test hands on, but you might be able to clear that OSX "fog" using a rule such as:
@namespace url(http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul);
#nav-bar, #PersonalToolbar {
background-image: none !important;
background-color: transparent !important;
This could be applied using the Stylish extension or by creating/editing a userChrome.css file. -
I am going to buy a mac mini i7 with 3 thunderbolt displays for forex trading. the question is if i use bootcamp and run windows on the mac mini will the displays still run the same way as if i was running it on Lion?
No idea if Windows will do it, but you can run Windows without Bootcamp & have OSX available at the same time, which should give you all the Monitors that OSX uses.

What is the best way to run windows on my Mac? And What are the pitfalls I should watch for?
What is the best way to run windows on my Mac? What are the pitfalls/
If you need Windows as your main operating system you would be better off buying a Real Windows PC.
Running windows on a Mac is always a compromise. Whether in a Boot Camp partition or in a Virtual Machine.
In boot camp you can't easily Re-Partition and or Re-Size the drive it is installed on. You can't use both graphics cards as Apple has limited Windows to use the discrete graphics only, that is if your mac has 2 graphics cards (15" MBPs), which will shorten the battery run time in Windows.
The trackpad only has limited functions in Windows, less then is available on the Mac side and a real Windows PC. -
is there an easier way to transfer your iTunes library on windows to a mac than copying the library to a usb and plugging the usb into the mac and put the library in the iTunes file? I recently swapped to Mac and this is how i moved the library from windows to mac and library is in tact but is there an easier way? My cousin just imported her cd's again, but it was harder for me as i have an ipod with over 150 apps and i needed to move them. i think it would be helpful if i knew of an easier way so i can help a friend move his. Thanks
The general method of use is to download a script (double-click or right-click and use Download or Save As...) to a folder of your choice, e.g. your Desktop, Downloads folder or create a folder at ...\iTunes\Scripts. Select a playlist or highlight some tracks in iTunes and then double-click on the script to execute it. If no specific tracks are selected the script will try to work with all tracks in the current playlist or sometimes the entire library.
