Aggregator Briefly Displays A Weird TOC Screen While Loading
In am using Adobe Captivate 5 on a Windows XP machine.
I have 14 Aggregator Files that each contain 10 - 15 swf projects.
When the Aggregator htm is loading, the following screen is briefly displayed.
This looks extremely unprofessional. Is there any way prevent this from happening?
Thanks!

Hi d.em,
Your post gives me hope for the first time since I've been having this problem.
I'm eagerly looking forward to the javascript.
THANK you in advance!
Hi John,
I've tried and tested this, and while it's not a complete solution it's certainly an acceptable workaround and has put us in a position where we have something decent to present to our client.
You can basically copy and paste all of this into your HTML file – you'll need to source a preloader .gif and name it 'spinner.gif' then drop it in the same folder as the rest of your files. Other comments relating to file names etc. are commented in the script.
Good luck!

Reg. Variable screen while loading bookmark
HI Friends,
We are working with WAD in SAP BI 7.01 ( With SAPKW70105 patch).
We are having some issue with variable screen display while loading bookamark.
Actually user wanted to show the Variable screen while running report, So we explicity switched on the "Display Variable" in web template
Even we have the option called "While loading Bookmark" in webtemplate.
We have given the option as HIDE for "while loading bookmark. This option is working fine, if the report doesnt have the mandatory fields in the selection screen. At that time if we create bookmark and click on created bookmark means.. it will show us the report without showing the variable screen (Selection screen).
But if the report is having mandatory fields in the selection screen and if we create the bookmark, click on the same.. it will prompt the selection screen (which we dont want to ).
So can anyone please help on this.
Thanks in advance.
Thanks & Regards,
RavishHI Friend
Thank you for the support.
We are abe to solve the issue by adding the JAVA patch.
Thanking you again -
Blank screens while loading .swf videos
I have several .swf movies on a website I am designing. The
smaller movies load fairly quickly but the larger movies just pop
up a white screen until the movie loads and it can take up to 7
seconds. I would like something like a bar or an animated
"Loading..." to pop up until the movie loads. Anyone have any ideas
on the best way to go about this? Thanks!I have the exact same question. I have a keynote presentation
which I have converted to an .swf file and want something to appear
on the screen while it is loading. It doesn't even need to be
animated - even ome text would do. Help please!!! -
Showing splash screen while loading...
Hi,
I'd like to show a splash screen while the application is loading (setting up hibernate session etc.) - here is my main method which is loading hibernate and starting up the application:
public static void main(String[] args) {
java.awt.EventQueue.invokeLater(new Runnable() {
public void run() {
MdbCheckerApp app = new MdbCheckerApp();
app.initializeLookAndFeel();
// preload Hibernate session
HibernateUtil.getSession();
// login successful
// if (app.login()) {
new MdbChecker().setVisible(true);
HibernateUtil.closeSession();
}How do I show my splash screen while simultaneously loading the hibernate session?
Thanks in advance
- StephanHowever, I'm not quite sure on how to proceed...
public static void main(String args[]) {
final TestForm tf = new TestForm();
tf.showSplash();
tf.runInitializer(new Runnable() {
public void run() {
try {
Thread.currentThread().sleep(3000);
} catch (Exception e) {}
tf.hideSplash();
public void runInitializer(Runnable r) {
Thread t = new Thread(r);
t.start();
public SplashScreen showSplash() {
// if a splash window was already created...
if(splash != null) {
// if it's showing, leave it; else null it
if(splash.isShowing()) {
return splash;
} else {
splash = null;
splash = new SplashScreen(null, true);
centerComponent(splash);
splash.show();
return splash;
public void hideSplash() {
if (splash != null) {
splash.dispose();
splash = null;
}I'm wondering why I do only see the splash screen (I was hoping that the splash screen would be disappearing after 3 seconds).
Here is the code of my splash screen:

Blue Screen while loading desktop
HP Pavillion Series P7-1003w
Windows 7 Home Premium
About 2 days ago I've started having an issue with my comp (HP Desktop, 8gb Ram, x4 Processor, ATI Video Card), It started when I noticed my Windows Firewall had shut down and would not restart, immediately I assumed a virus/rootkit had sneaked past my Avast! Anti-virus. So I began running scans. My first scan (Full system scan) came back with 38 infected files inside windows temp files folder, all were malware except for 2 Trojan, Avast immediately deleted these files and I restarted comp to see if I could restart the firewall.
Now about 10 seconds after loading the desktop I get the BSOD. I restarted and ran in safe mode to see if I could asses the issue but nothing worked, I tried running memory diagnostics, system repair (No recovery points found), startup repair, and even ran a CHKDSK but everything came back as fine. So I did a full system restore twice using HP's Built in partition recovery. The computer was fine immediately after restore, but I noticed every time I tried to right-click on something explorer would crash and then restart. The only thing I can think of is a bad video card, but I'd like confirmation/Other options before I throw money at a new one.
BCCode: a
BCP1: 0000000000000010
BCP2: 0000000000000002
BCP3: 0000000000000001
BCP4 : FFFFF80002AF2285
OS Version: 6_1_7601
Service Pack: 1_0
Product: 768_1
Now its gotten to the point it wont even load Safe mode, the boot screen comes up but after a few seconds a small line of corruption appears at the top. I need a quick solution to this please, this computer needs to be running at 100% again before 6/11/13.
Update: I just plugged in mouse, keyboard, and monitor to see if I could pull the product ID from the system properties before it crashed, it worked fine so I zipped up the dump file and plugged in the Ethernet to try and post a link to it here, but as soon as it became connected to the internet it blue screened again, I'm thinking the windows updater is to blame, even though its disabled.Hello Erose90,
I see you’re stating your computer blue screens,is that correct? I will be happy to help you.
I would like you to try and create a diagnostic disk, this disk can be run outside of the operating system giving the results more clarity.
This link will show you how to create the disk and run the disk once it has finished. When you open the link scroll down to the sectioned headed “Creating the HP Vision Diagnostic Media”, from there follow the information it provides.
Try to only have this program opened and running so it will lessen the chance of a possible blue screen during the process.
Please respond back at your earliest convenience.
Thanks

Hey everyone.
When firefox crashed last night, I figured it was just firefox being difficult, but when while using firefox my entire computer crashed this afternoon and rebooted with a gray screen, the spinny wait symbol, and a loading bar, I started to get concerned. After looking through console, I'm not sure what's caused it to crash like this so I'm hoping one of you bright people here can tell me what exactly happened. I'm running a mac book pro with 10.6.8, have no real addons on firefox aside from adblock plus, divx, memory restart, a french dictionary, and a skin I've been using forever and have also spoken to the developer in the past about. I'm also using Firefox 17.0.1. After trying to google some of the more unfamiliar/suspicious lines (mostly relating to launch agents), I typed into terminal the command to list all launch agents and received 3 replies naming adobe, divx, and google. I used terminal to delete them all just for safe measure (plus the adobe update window has been irritating me to no end so maybe it'll go away now, haha). I did three things when I tried to boot up again after the crash and the weird launch screen with loading bar came up: 1) I held down the power button again because a) the screen was weirding me out and b) I thought it got hung up again (bar seemed to stall for an unusually long time), 2) I tried to boot again and when the same gray screen came back I just figured I had no choice and had to sit through it. 3) when the bar was at about half way I pulled out my ethernet cord for safe measure in case something shady was going on. These three things are also reflected in the log below.
I currently live overseas and the nearest Apple store is over two hours away with no guarantee of a native english speaker working, so if anyone can let me know what caused the crash and if there's anything I can do about it, I would be extremely grateful. The following is my current console log in its entirety from today, including my attempted system update to see if that would improve things (which also resulted in a gray screen with loading bar later), and a really weird bit at the end that is also confusing (but possibly caused by me tinkering in terminal- not sure).
NAME is replacing my HD name, and my screen name here (caithris) has replaced my computer user name. NUMBER has replaced anything that looks like a serial number of some kind.
Thanks so much ahead of time-- please let me know if there's anything else I can share.

Thanks again- I mean it. It's lousy being stuck away from home when crazy thing happen to your main line of communication!
-CaithrisThe gray screen with loading bar issue is a at boot fsck (file system check) that has discovered something wrong with your boot drive/partition and was attempting to fix it.
OS X is booting but can't complete, so that means your hard drive is good, just likely has been either subjected to shock which damaged data on the platters, or bad sectors (the drive is dying if after fixing it, problems occurs again), or something messed something up in the file structure.
Firefox is currently at 19.02, so it appears your background auto-update has not been occurring, which makes me suspect the machine's data is broken in some manner or you have malware on the machine blocking the updates.
Your problems are multiple, in your case I advise a complete erase and install.
1: If you have a backup of your user data on a external storage drive (not TimeMachine as it might be corrupted and compromised with malware it's just going to restore back) then your good, else you have to do this.
Create a data recovery/undelete external boot drive
Copy your data to a blank plain jane external storage drive as you want no executable files on it when you connect to the cleaned machine later.
2: Once your data is safely copied (copy visible files manually and what you know is good, not folders that can contain invisible malware programs!) then disconnect the drive(s)
3: Next assume all writeable media is contaminated with malware and treat as so. Even if you erased it.
4: Stick in your 10.6 install disk and reboot holding the c or option key down. You want Disk Utility and you want to select the ENTIRE internal drive and MUST USE the Security Option > Zero All Data (unless your in the military then use 7x erase, do not use 35x as it will take weeks and is unnecessary)
The Zero/7x erase will do two things, do a low level format and erradicate everything (including hidden stuff and deleted files) also will map off any failing sectors on the hard drive.
5: Follow the procedure here to install 10.6
How to erase and install Snow Leopard 10.6
6: Reboot the machine twice, then once you set up the machine (using a alias of course and not allowing registration), use a secured network and IMMEDIATLY Software update to 10.6.8, if you can download the 10.6.8 Combo update on another secure machine to a (new) USB thumb drive and install it on the clean Mac, do that instead.
WiFi security issues, at home and WiFi hotspots
https://support.apple.com/kb/DL1399
Still run Software update afterwards as Apple might not have fully updated the combo update yet.
7: Once you machine is secure, download the free ClamXav and run a scan on the external storage drive with just your files, perhaps one or more PDF's or other files are not what they seem to be.
8: Make sure to install fresh copies of software from original sources and not from rewriteable media, update them to be current. Malware can be hidden in copies of programs.
9: Trash all your rewritable media, or use a Linux PC or Linux Mint in a virtual machine (VirtualBox) on another computer like Windows to scrub and reformat all the rewritable media before attaching them to the clean Mac. You have to make sure it's getting the entire media.
10: Once your machine is set back up, then make clones and time and date them.
Most commonly used backup methods
If your still having problems with the machine, it's likley a failing hard drive and you will have to replace it and repeat the steps above pretty much.
Really it's best to replace the drive in the interest of security.
Install/upgrade RAM or storage drive in Mac's
For performance of Snow Leopard, check out this tip
For Snow Leopard Speed Freaks
Your overseas, if your in a foriegn country you have to assume FinSpy is being installed on your machine (uses a older iTunes verison "update" to get on) or there is other tricks via the ISP to install something on your machine. So mix things up and don't stick any old USB you see laying around into your Mac.

A conversion error occurred while the program -- display data on the screen
HI all,
Iam getting a dump error described below:
A conversion error occurred while the program was trying to
display data on the screen.
The ABAP output field and the screen field may not have the
same format.
Some field types require more characters on the screen than
in the ABAP program. For example, a date field on a screen needs
two characters more than it would in the program. When attempting to
display the date on the screen, an error will occur that triggers the
error message.
Screen name.............. " Ztable_MM_MRQ "
Screen number............ 0100
Screen field............. "WA_PO_ITEMS-MENGE"
Error text............... "FX015: Sign lost."
Further data:
Give us step by step procedure to rectify the same with T.codes
Thanks
Regards
SirajRaymond
please give details in se51 where i have to put a "V" to allow negative amounts
whether it is in Text or I/O templates
name type of screen element Text or I/O field
WA_PO_ITEMS-MENGE Text PO_quantity__

Display splash screen while downloading applet jar file
I've tried to search the forums, but most results I get are how to display a splash screen while the classes are loading. Unfortunately, the classes do not begin loading until after the jar file has been downloaded. How does one go about showing as splash screen as the jar file containing the classes is downloaded?
Thanks for the help!"Java 5 provides a capability in this area"- Unfortunately, due to circumstances out of our control we are stuck on java 1.4.x.
"How you do that is your problem."- I'm so glad I can count on the helpful java community. Thanks.
Since it appears that "warnerja" is discusted by my question (mabye had a bad day) and is leaving me out in the cold, does anyone have any ideas on how I can implement her/his suggestion. I can break my jar file into multiple seperate jars and as each one loads I can update a progress bar. Unfortunately, I do not know where to begin with this code wise nor do I know if this is the best solution to this problem. I would think this to be a common problem.
Thanks for your help! -
I am trying to find a way to change the screen saver for my apple tv while I stream my music. Anyone have a solution? Besides my photos, can i show the awesome equilizer? Or can I show the album artwork screensaver that the macs have? I feel like this feature is much needed on the Apple TV while I stream my music to the Apple TV 2nd generation!
Hi byee322!
If you are using devices that meets these criteria:
iPhone 4S (or later), iPad 2 (or later), iPad mini, or iPod touch (5th generation)1
Apple TV (2nd or 3rd generation)2
Wi-Fi (802.11a/g/n) network
iMac (Mid 2011 or newer)
Mac mini (Mid 2011 or newer)
MacBook Air (Mid 2011 or newer)
MacBook Pro (Early 2011 or newer)
you may want to try using a feature called Airplay Mirroring to show whatever you'd like on the screen while your music is playing. We have a couple of articles about that online that can tell you more information about Airplay Mirroring. The first one here is about using Mountain Lion to mirror the display from your Mac onto the TV to which the Apple TV is connected, and can be found here:
About AirPlay Mirroring in OS X Mountain Lion
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5404
The second is an article with more information about Airplay Mirroring in iOS, and can be found here:

Display wallpaper on locked screen
I noticed about a week ago that my Z10 was displaying the BB_Blue.jpgp wallpaper on the locked screen. I saw it for a few days and then it stopped.
I thought it was odd because I had not chosen a wallpaper setting on the device to that point, so I thought it might be related to the OS update to 10.1.0.273 (although this happened several weeks after the update).
But I liked the look! It relieved the monotony of the dark background.
So then I set the wallpaper to BB_Blue.jpgp and it works on all screens except when the device is locked.
Does anyone know how to set the wallpaper to display on the locked screen?
Solved!
Go to Solution.The solution came to me after I realized what was different about my setup.
I had enabled Parental Controls as a means of screening telemarketer calls. With PC enabled only calls from numbers in my contacts would cause the phone to ring, all other calls would go directly to Call Answer.
What I further realized is that some settings applied while Parental Controls are enabled, apply only to that mode. My clue was the fact that I had arranged my icons one way, and when I briefly disabled Parental Controls they were back to the standard view.
I tested this by setting the wallpaper for the standard view to purple, then enabled Parental Controls and set the wallpaper to blue. While navigating in Parental Controls mode the wallpaper is blue, but when the screen locks the purple wallpaper is displayed.
So the bug (or undocumented feature) is that the wallpaper you choose with Parental Controls enabled is not the one used for the locked screen. The locked screen uses the wallpaper from the standard view. In my original problem, because I had not set a wallpaper for the standard view, the locked screen showed only the dark background. -
Error when displaying a field on Screen with Table Control
Hi,
It is going to 'Dump' when I am trying to display data on the screen with the help of Table Control. From the dump, What I have observed is , there is a field 'ZTSV_FSRDATA-ANZFEHLER'. If this field has negative value, then it is going to 'Dump' saying that the length is not enough. If it has a positive value then it is working fine. But the type of the field in the Internal table & on the screen are same.
Please help me to resolve this error.
I am posting here the Dump message also:
A conversion error occurred while the program was trying todisplay data on the screen.
The ABAP output field and the screen field may not have the same format.
Some field types require more characters on the screen thanin the ABAP program. For example, a date field on a screen needstwo characters more than it would in the program. When attempting to display the date on the screen, an error will occur that triggers the error message.

Turn off laptop screen while using iTunes? Or best screen saver?
Is there a way to turn off the iBook display and still let the computer use iTunes? I can't find anything on this. If that isn't possible, what would be the best screen saver for actually saving the screen? If you know what I mean....
That does work--thank you. I wanted this solution for iTunes. This came to my attention when a friend of mine was using his MacBook to run a movie on a television, and he was complaining about the fact that the MacBook display could not be shut off while exporting the feed to the tv. You've answered my question, but I'm going to amend the topic to include shutting off screen while exporting a video feed--perhaps someone knows the answer to that. (I don't have anything to port a feed too, or I'd try it myself.) Thank you!

last few days my mac got a black screen while working once ort twice a day. no idea why. it's only the screen and there is no way to wake him up. but the cpu didn't shut down and it sounds like he is working correctly. any idea? would make me happy!

First thing to try is a reboot of your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.
Still happen quit Safari like this.
Go to the Home screen and double click the Home button. That will reveal the row of recently used apps at the bottom of the screen. Tap and hold on the app in question until it wiggles and displays a minus sign. Tap the minus sign to actually quit the app. Then tap anywhere on the screen above that bottom row to return the screen to normal. Then restart the app and see if it works normally.
Then delete the safari cache and history in Settings. Hopefully then the problem will be corrected. -
Got a new laptop from work, no choice on the type, but want to plug it's docking station into my iMac so I can use dual screens while using the laptop. Can I use the Ethernet port for this?
Welcome to Apple Support Communities
Target Display mode only supports Late 2009 and Mid 2010 27-inch iMacs, and Mid 2011 and newer iMacs to use them as external displays, but it only works over Mini DisplayPort or Thunderbolt, not Ethernet.
Your PC needs Mini DisplayPort or Thunderbolt (depending on your iMac) to be able to use your iMac as an external display, so it is probably that you cannot use the iMac as an external display. Instead, look for information in the Internet about VNC viewers that allow you to do that

New Motorola SB6121 at only 1.5 Mbps download
Really frustrated.A few weeks ago our internet download speed dropped off a cliff; down to 1.5 Mbps. I'm paying for the "Performance" tier, so it should be 30 Mbps. Upload speeds are fine at 6 Mbps.Comcast phone tech said the modem was bad (SB6121).
