Advanvced problem. Can someone explain?

Once on my Performa 6360 I created a MS Power Point slide show using Office 98 for a class. I created the presentation, transfered it to floppy disk (you'd be surprised how fancy slideshows I've seen on floppy disks). I then tested the slideshow on my Windows 98 Compaq Armada laptop running Office 97 and the slidehsow including all the system sounds imported and the PICT imges loaded fine.
But when it came to show time on the Windows 2000/Office 2000/XP PC's none of the system sounds, nor PICT images loaded and I was embarassed.
Can anyone explain why Windows 98 read the Mac PICT and system sounds and Windows 2000 did not?
Yes I know that OSX has moved away from the pripitary system sound and PICT formats.
John

So you are saying that MS ofers less support for Macintosh PICT and system sound formats in the later oses than in the earlier oses? Or less support in their later MS Office versions? It was so strange why Office 97 for Windows 98 was able to play sound files and open PICT images that Office 2000 on a Windows 2000 machine could not.
Well no matter you cant get away from MS. PC's are dog cheap these days (I've seen laptops being sold during this thanksgiving sale for only $400)! My family owned a Mac (performa 6116) for 9 years and last year moved to a very nice PC. I however have been using a Mac for 12 years and recently moved to a nice ibook. Its more appropiate for my living situation, which is not permenant. But I will settle down one day an will get a desktop again.

Can someone explain how to set up an administrator account so that I can have my phone and my daughters have separate apple ids?

I mistakenly updated to the latest version of iOS and ever since then I can send messages to my daughter and I receive them but she does not. She has an iphone also and her phone is under my apple id also. Someone told me that I could set up an Administrator Account so that she can still be under my account but she has her own ID and that will fix the problem with text/imessages. I can't find anything on the website that explains how to do that. Can someone explain that to me?
Thanks!

I'm still not clear on what you are trying to accomplish. If you have an iPhone and she does as well you should have your own Apple IDs.
If you want to pay for any purchases she makes with her phone as far as apps/music goes than that is what Family sharing is for.
In my case my Wife and I are setup for family sharing. When she purchases music/apps it charges my credit card. This setup also allows me to share my past music/app purchases with her and vice versa.

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 order of things Using Swingworker?

Hi:
Can someone explain very clearly the order of things using Swingworker? Please do not refer the SUN tutorials. I am totally dead in the water with a very large application and the order of things is not sensible. Also, if the worker thread is too long, the GUI gets updated, but my progress bar (killed right after in the finished method) remains running in some instances only.
Can someone explain any debugging methods for thread work?
I am a veteran programmer of 19 years and this one's got me. The event dispatch thread returns immediate, the GUI responds well, but the progress bar setVisible(false); ... just after in the finished() method (on Event Dispatch thread) does not go away, continues running, only on very long (large query) work. I'm truly stumped. I have successful applications of the Swingworker use, the progress bar, and everything works fine. Not this one.
Debugging threads is what I need. Or some tool that visually shows threads as the program runs.
Thanks for any help,
PiratePete

Thanks. I guess I should count my blessings when using free stuff. But I have been impressed with what the J2SDK has to offer. I have been writing a complicated application that I am going to market and most of my problems have been "design" in nature.
Thanks again,

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 how data is fed to the usage details screen in My Verizon?

Can someone explain to me how I can view my data usage for a past date today and when I look at the same date a few days from now there will be additional data. Customer support were adamant that the data usage details come directly from my device so I commented that my device must be saving usage and sending it to Verizon arbitrarily to which I was met with silence on the line.
Here's an example - on 4/1 I checked my data usage details for the date of 3/21 and it looked like this:
03/21/12
08:43:00 PM
0.02518
03/21/12
09:17:00 AM
0.01475
03/21/12
07:20:00 AM
0.01730
then on 4/7 when I checked my data usage details for the date 3/21 it looked like this:
03/21/12
11:45:00 PM
1.15382
03/21/12
11:38:00 PM

The red rows have been added between 4/1 & 4/7, but where did they come from? This is just one example, it's happening all over my bill and Verizon cannot justify the anomaly and certainly won't consider removing the $40 in overage charges I have this month. Which brings up another question, why doesn't Verizon offer more than 10GB for the mifi? If I want to use more data and am willing to pay for it, I have to go to another provider?

Hi kellieh,
When you had your data overage (and the additional spurious charges), how did Verizon respond to you?
I have just reported a 2x discrepancy between individual device data usage (.89 GB total) and the reported 1.5 GB for my account. They claim it will take 72 hours to get back to me after they research the problem.
What avenues did you pursue to make contact?
I caled 611, then emailed tech support, then sent a private message to Verizon Wireless support.

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.

HT5463 In my opinion, when the Silence setting is "only when the device is locked", it contradicts the settings you set above, like Manual. Can someone explain how these settings work together?

Can someone explain how these settings work together? Manual seams to contraduct the SILENCE setting at the bottom of the Do Not Disturb page. It's very confusing.

You should have seen information in the support document that you linked from. It used to be with the first version of Do Not Disturb that it would only function when the device was locked. That changed with iOS 7, and not it can be active all of the time. With it on Manual, it is on, but if you have the device "awake" that you can still receive calls/texts, etc. Sort of like you have the phone awake, so it isn't a problem for you to receive things. If you set the settings for Always, this means you can be doing things on the phone and not be disturbed by anything else. Does that make sense?

I have two standalone servers configured on this machine (development box), and therefore two CMS configured to listen on port numbers 16575 and 16525. These are confirmed by the 12th and penultimate line.
Question: Why are another two CMSs also appearing on ports 48300 and 46093 (lines 10 and 11)?
Secondly, I have registered the Desktop Intelligence servers to ports 16535 and 16585 (as shown in lines 5 and 19). They are spawning
child processes on ports 1025 and 1026.
Question: Can I fix the spawned child ports to a fixed range instead of them being selected randomly?

I solved the CMS problem - I hadn't changed the CMS request ports. D'OH! Below are the command lines for the two child processes. Is there any documentation around port number controls?

Please can someone explain how to delete email addresses? I have people who when I type in their name it comes up with the correct email address but then when you hit return to confirm it promptly changes the name to someone else (always the same someone

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
Terri

Try 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.

Trying to understand RSTP - Please can someone explain this?

Hi Group
I am still confused about how RSTP is implemented. From what i understand the major difference is that STP
used Timers for Loop prevention whereas RSTP coordinates between neighbors via messages (proposal/aggreement) to turn on links
more quickly after topology changes and is "timer free".
However, I have not noticed any difference in the configuration from the legacy STP
configurations and the RSTP configuration on cisco devices. Or are there any differences??
I have read in documentation that RSTP natively includes features like UplinkFast, BackboneFast and PortFast. So are these features now obsolete
and not needed to be configured if you are running RSTP. (Although i have seen Portfast still configured along with RSTP on many switches)
Also can someone explain the below Points from Cisco Documentation
1) should STP be disabled on edge ports all together as suggested below?
"STP edge ports are bridge ports that do not need STP enabled, where loop protection is not needed out
of that port or an STP neighbor does not exist out of that port. For RSTP, it is important to disable STP
on edge ports, which are typically front-side Ethernet ports, using the command bridge
bridge-group-number spanning-disabled on the appropriate interface. If RSTP is not disabled on edge
ports, convergence times will be excessive for packets traversing those ports."
2) It seems RSTP relies on duplex setting to determine inter-switch links. What is the configuration to explicitly
configure RSTP link types? (I couldnt find this in the documentation)
"RSTP can only achieve rapid transition to the forwarding state on edge ports and on point-to-point links.
The link type is automatically derived from the duplex mode of a port. A port that operates in fullduplex
is assumed to be point-to-point, while a half-duplex port is considered as a shared port by
default. This automatic link type setting can be overridden by explicit configuration. In switched
networks today, most links operate in full-duplex mode and are treated as point-to-point links by RSTP.
This makes them candidates for rapid transition to the forwarding state."
Also i am a bit rough on my RSTP knowledge even after skimming a few Cisco documents. Can someone please explain this in simple way.
Thanks in advance

to configure it on a device:-
spanning-tree mode rapid-pvst
PortFast/UplinkFast & BackboneFast were cisco "Enhancements" to 802.1d STP. RSTP just incorperates them. If you want to configure portfast, the command is still "spanning-tree portfast"
OK
1) That is your choice - I have bitter experiance of users/IT admins just plugging hubs/switches in when ever they can. Also cabling the switch back to itself creating a cabled loop. So my advice to you is to leave STP enabled on all switch ports, BUT enable BPDUGuard - this is a life saver, if you have configured portfast.
2) duplex auto! or duplex full (overiding)
I really suggest that you read the 802.1d standard, once you understand normal spanning-tree - RSTP will come to you.
