Another yahoo thread...

Ok, well I've been using Yahoo to view my PC using friends' webcams successfully for over a year now, but lately I've been having the problem where it says their webcam is not online, even when it is. Sometimes I was able to view it. But now I can't view it at all. I've read on these forums that it "isn't even an option anymore", but is this actually true and if so, where is the evidence of that? I've read on other forums that this is a server side issue that yahoo is trying to fix, but is there any conclusivity to it? What is going on? I've also read that they hired a new developer to work on the next version of Yahoo for OS X... but this is all very frustrating. I've been toting my Acer laptop up and down steps to my room from time to time just to view my friend's webcams.

So it appears that they aren't even supporting webcam with the current Mac version of yahoo IM... which is incredibly disappointing. I've been looking around the yahoo site for a contact us page, yet I can't seem to find one... I'd like to ask them myself if they plan to release an updated client that will support webcamming...

Another process (thread) is applying transactions for this client:

Has anyone seen this error
'Another process (thread) is applying transactions for this client: MNEWMAN Try again later.'
We seem to be getting a few upload transactions put into the error queue for this reason, sometimes just executing the transaction clears it, but more often the data actually looks to have been correctly posted to the server as well as appearing in the error queue, as itf two threads have picked up the same transaction, one has applied it without error and the other failed
any ideas?

latest update from Oracle is to
1.Set MAX_APPLY_TRIES=5
2.Set APPLY_TRIES_DELAY=10
Done this, but waiting for sufficient activity to see if it solves the problem.
I had thought about knocking max_threads down to 1 (and might do this to try and isolate some odd performance issues), but the problem is that this would make the apply and compose process take three times as long (we use 3 threads), and that will not be acceptable for long on the live system

Yahoo account tied to iCloud account is not receiving pushed emails but another Yahoo account does

3 days ago, I signed up for an email account through my previously established iCloud account which is tied to my Yahoo email address. Since then, I have not been receiving any Yahoo push notifications as I used to. This problem seems to be tied directly to the fact to my signing up for an iCloud email account. I say this because I set up another dummy Yahoo email account on my phone for testing purposes and it is receiving the Push Notifications without any problem.
Here are all of the steps I've taken so far without any sucess:
Removed my Yahoo account from my phone and restarted the phone and then re-added the Yahoo acount
Reset my network settings
Changed my Apple ID (and iCloud account) to another email address besides my Yahoo account
Reset the phone and restored from a backup
Tried installing the 3rd party Yahoo app
Turned push notifications to off and set to manual, reset the phone and then turned it back to Push
Deleted all email accounts on my phone (iCloud, Gmail, Comcast, Yahoo) and restarted the phone and then added them back again
Removed the troublesome Yahoo account from my Macbook Pro and my iPad and restarted them and then re-added the account
None of those steps have seemed to help fix the issue. Also, it should be noted that my iCloud email address also has no problem receiving push notifications, only my original Yahoo email account seems to be having the problem.
I don't believe this is a hardware issue since I can receive push notifications on a different Yahoo email account. Not sure what steps I should take at this point.

Another halting Thread problem

Hello,
I want to make a benchmark software using Java, and I want to add capability to stop the test if such setting was selected that the test would take forever. I know that I can do this with using such code like:
public class MyBenchThread extends Thread {
boolean toldToStop = false;
public void run() {
while (!benchmarkEndConditionHasMet && !toldToStop) {
// Run heavy benchmark here
public void haltTest() {
toldToStop = true;
}and calling haltTest() from another Thread.
However, this has two problems:
1) To have the benchmark at its purest level, I would like
to avoid extra computation as much as possible. Is there a way to give the same effect of killing the thread without constantly checking a condition variable?
2) If the benchmark involved some I/O operation (not necessarily over a socket to which you can set a timeout) that takes a while to complete, I would not be able to halt it using the above code or interrupt() function in Thread class. I know that stop() is likely to cause problem... So is there any way to force interrupt execution of the Thread including I/O, do whatever cleanup is needed, and gracefully exit?
Thanks in advance

Sorry for late response... Had been away for weekend.
Well, interrupt() does not seem to work on I/O operation. It only works on a Thread that is actually sleeping or waiting on a monitor. If it was doing some heavy number crunching or I/O, I think it will only set its interrupted status to true, and does not actually suspend its operation. (This is my assumption; correct me if I am wrong)
Hmm... so I guess there is not really a way to get around this. I was having problem with using a proprietary library that established a CORBA session inside it, and it did not provide any way of halting the operation externally. Unless I Ctrl-C whole VM, the library call just kept on going for about 30 secs till it finally gave up.
I don't know... Is force trying to stop a problematic thread that dangerous thing in general to do in multiprocess programming, even if you knew what you were doing?

Another Freezing Thread

After the latest update(I just got my ipod working after it was broken for a few months from another porblem, so I just now got the latest update) my Ipod has been locking up anywhere from 3seconds to 3 minutes after I start playing a song. I can reset it (by holding menu and select) but seeing as it happens EVERY time, that's not much of a solution. I've seen many threads like this and the only advice I've seen is to do the 5 R's, which I have done many times, with no luck. I even tried formating my Ipod with HP USB Disk Storage Format Tool but that hasn't helped either. Can anyone give me some advice BESIDES doing the 5 R's? Any help would be appreciated.
Edit: I have the 5th generation 30gb Ipod if that helps any.

might a low-level format help in this case ?

Another UnsatisifedLinkError thread

Hi all,
I've had a look around and not yet managed to find a solution to my problem. Some of the other issues have been of help with errors I was getting previously, but I'm totally stuck now.
I've got a DLL file supplied by Intuit (company that makes the Quickbooks accounting packages), which connects to the quickbooks application and sends off queries using COM. I also have 2 java classes that I have got to work on their own (in a standalone directory - without putting them in a package).
The problem I am having is when I try to move the java files (without making any changes to them (except adding the a package declaration)) into my web application. The DLL file is in my windows/system32 directory, and I know it's getting loaded because if I remove the file then I get the "can't find dll file" exception message.
This is what is being printed out when i execute the code:
<Amount>10000.00</Amount>
</TotalBalanceFilter>

...Anyone got any ideas why moving the source files to another directory, and adding them into a package would stop this from working? FYI the package I'm adding it to is org.quickbooks.
Thanks

FYI the package I'm adding it to is org.quickbooks.If the source file you're moving is supposed to link with the DLL, probably because the exported names in the DLL have the package name as part of their name. If you change the package name, the DLL would need to be changed as well.

Sorry Another Trackpad Thread!

Hi Guys,
Sorry I do realise that their are thousands of threads on trackpad issues. But I feel that this particular issue hasn't been addressed yet - or at least I couldn't find it!
This is for my GF's 800Mhz IBook G4
The issue:
- The track pad is speratic when being used normally - very rarely does it work properly these days.
i.e. when scrolling it will only move slightly in the right direction, then it flys off to another part of the screen.
I've already tried:
- I've tried that reset command a few times and it doesn't seem to change anything.
- I try reseting the capacitors or what ever it is by putting my whole hand on the trackpad for 20-30 seconds, but it doesn't seem to do anything.
- Something that seems dodgy is that sometimes it can be fixed for a few minutes by "flexing" the laptop! i.e. holding the base of the laptop on either side with my fingers underneath in the middle, and push a bit!
- The outside edges of the trackpad seems to work fine just about all the time, just the middle (and main) area of the trackpad cause crazy tracking!
- I've even tried downloading the "sidetrack" program that has fixed other peoples trackpad issues, but this hasn't changed our problem.
- Using a USB mouse connected works fine, but she wants to use the laptop in university lectures (And any uni student would know that uni lecture theatre note tables are no good) so a USB mouse as a long term fix is no good.
- It's also nothing to do with the preference settings, believe me, I've tried just about everything i can think of!
I'm begining to think that the only fix is a completely new trackpad, but I wanted to come on and check to see if there were any good ideas before forking out the dough!
Any help on this issue would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers,
1.5Gh 12" Powerbook Mac OS X (10.4.6)

Hi Brod(d)ers,
Welcome to Apple Discussions
Some of your techniques sound pretty strange to me. I have never heard of reseting the capacitors or "flexing" the laptop.
You may want to look at...
Knowledge Base Document #17228 on Portables: Jumpy or Erratic Trackpad Operation
Knowledge Base Document #58389 on Your PowerBook and iBook's trackpad doesn't respond
Ronda made a great suggestion about reseting the PMU; that should be your first move.

Yet another HTPC thread

Hi, there is probably a thousand posts on this forum about this topic, but I dont have time to read all of them atm due to hectic work.
But I want recomendations on what software to use to build a simple mediabox. What I want it to do: I simply want it to play videos that I have, either from the computer itself or mounted trough the network. I do NOT want to record anything at all. And remote access to control it would be a big plus too, like a web interface or ssh, I'm not to picky.
Tried MythTv with MythVideo earlier today, but that seems to run way to slow on the box (see specs below), but it might just be me doing something wrong and I will give it another shot after work.
Specs:
AMD Athlon 1300 MHz
384 SDRAM
Radeon 9200
Edit: I dont want to run the myth-live distro based on knoppix either, as I have other services running on the computer when its not playing videos.

I run freevo 1.6.3 (it's got fewer dependencies and quirks than 1.7.0), using TV-out only. version 1.6.3 is no longer in the AUR, so i would be happy to provide you my own PKGBUILD.
I'm using openbox as a WM (login with this method http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Aut … on_startup . Use the "C" method and modify it to also execute startx), even though freevo can "be it's own window manager". Xorg is _highly_ recommeded though, as you get accelerated video output.
Then I bought a cheap'o ir remote (usb receiver), and it "acts" as an extra keyboard, with keycodes sent to xorg (most ir remotes work this way). Some of the keycodes already mapped to "real keys", and some that i've mapped with xmodmap.
It mounts DVDs and CDs automatically through freevo (no setup...), and i just had to point it at a samba mountpoint at my download server to watch shows that i download regularly.
Too bad my "media" computer is unable (too old) to suspend with powersave, since this can be done (as well as shutdown) from freevo!

Yet another comping thread

Sorry, but I can't seem to find this specific problem in a search of "comping" so here's yet one more thread.
Personally, I'm loving the comping feature. I've gotten some great results from it, and I find it easy and intuitive to use.
However, my problem comes when I try to "flatten and merge." Just flattening seems to work okay, and I'm left with all the separate regions and all the fades that were created using the comping feature. But if I try to flatten AND merge, the resulting region does not even remotely resemble the comp that was flattened. Some of the fades appear to be missing as you can hear some of the transitions from region to region, sounds that did not exist in the comped regions come up. In short, it's a mess.
Is anyone else having problems with this? Maybe the solution is to never merge, but only flatten for now and wait for an update. Or perhaps there's some preference somewhere about how the merged and flattened region is created that is set incorrectly.
Any advice?
Thanks.

Try to keep things simple
If it works without security, then you need to add security in ONE step at a time
First be sure that MAC address filtering is DISABLED in your wireless settings on your router
Next, pick a simple passphrase like 1234ABCD check off WAP or whatever you are using realizing that WPA algorithms must be checked as well (TKIP or AES)
Make sure you save the changes on your router and then go to your itouch and enter in WPA or whatever and the pass word
If it doesn't work, unplug the modem, then the router then shut down your pc or mac and turn off the itouch completely, till when you see the bar on the top of the itouch to slide off. Then plug in modem, wait till lights stop flashing, only the activity light should flash, power up the router, then the pc then turn on itouch

Another KeyListener thread...

Hi, I'm new here. Me and a friend are trying out some java on our own because we feel our teacher gives us boring tasks (word games etc. UH...).
We just started making a simple platform game. I'm handling the character movement etc. but I've ran into some troubles with Key Bindings.
The code compiles and I can move the character around, but I would like to have control of Key_pressed and Key_released events for all the keys. I've tried adding a keylistener to the JPanel but off course that doesn't work (the compiler says the JPanel is not abstract). I want to know how I can acces the Key events. I've read alot of threads about this already but they all use different methods and I can't seem to figure them out.

Your question is about implement a KeyListener. You where asked for a SSCCE. It does not require a jar to write a simple SSCCE. It should only take about 10-20 lines of code to write a simple KeyListener.
We don't care about your actuall use of the KeyListener in you program. You just use a simple System.out.println(...) to make sure the key listener is invoked the way you expect it to be invoked. Once you understand the basics, you incorporate that knowledge into your main program.
You can start by reading the Swing tutorial on [How to Write a Key Listener|http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/uiswing/TOC.html].

Another EARPHONE thread

i have been reading lots of reviews about earphones / earbuds and i have seemed to have already purchased one of the top ones i keep reading about. The Sony MDR-EX5's .... i have to say this is my st set of ear canal or bud style earphones... they fit really tight in my ears, actually if someone is talking to me i have to pull them out to even hear what they are saying.......But to me they are just not the right ones for my MuVo TX...... The TX just doesn't have the power to dri've these..........i am at max. power all the time and useing the custom eq. settings.........i am worried that if i go out and buy a different set of earphones i will have the same results....what do you think?
These are Impedanced at 6ohm, and the frequency response is 6-23khz.
Am i being too picky? am i asking too much out of the little MuVo? ....i just want louder music, with a little more bass.
Thanks for listening...............PEACE

<FONT face="Comic Sans MS" size=3>I hear what u r saying about tightness and believe me the Sonys are tight fitting....but i for some reason the MuVo TX just cannot push these earbuds.
<FONT face="Comic Sans MS" size=3>
<FONT face="Comic Sans MS" size=3>I went to the Creative store (cambridge soundworks) a couple days ago looking to purchase yet another set of earphones......the sales girl that was there actually opened 3 different earphones for me to try out......i tried the Sennhiser 400 and i wasn't impressed, and also the Creative 880 Earphones and they didn't have much sound to them either.............the set that sold me was the Creative EP 480. The bass was really there for me........ so for now i have purchased these for $29.99, the sound is really nice...........................have you heard the Creative 630's?..........i only can find them on-line at www.cambridgesoundworks.com

Another DSDT thread

Hello fellow Archers,
Although a brand new Arch user, I am really excited with Arch and hopefully I will stay on this distro till the end of days. Anyway, enough with the introductions... let get to business...
I am having issues with problematic DSDT from my laptop and I would need some assistance if possible...
I have extracted my DSDT and I have it uploaded in github here https://github.com/progtologist/dv6-610 … r/dsdt.dsl
I have managed to correct the errors (wasn't hard) and compiled it with just a warning but using it caused a kernel panic so I am guessing I am doing something wrong! The uploaded version contains the errors so one with more experience can see what I was doing wrong.
Thanks!

Another Twitter thread ...

There have been several threads complaining about Safari 5 and Twitter. Here is my experience (more of a confirmation that it may be a Twitter problem rather than Apple's).
Since yesterday, running Safari 5 on an iMac G5 and 10.5.8, I've not been able to post anything on Twitter. I get my home page and can type into the Tweet box, but there is no "characters remaining" countdown, and clicking "Tweet" has no effect at all (not even the whirling gear). However, I can post in Firefox and Camino and Opera, so it's clearly an issue between Twitter and Safari.

Another keyboard thread...

Well, I've read many threads as to a similar problem I'm having, but nothing exactly like it...
I'm working on a MacBook Pro, and when at home I use one of the new Aluminumem keyboards, but am not too happy with it, here's why:
I want to use the function keys as their defult settings - no volume control, no exposé, whatever. So I turn on that option in the system prefs...
But with that option turned on, my Arrow keys work as Pg Up, Pg Dn, Home, and End keys, the "backspace" delete key works backwords - a frontwaty delete. Basically it works like the laptop keyboard if the fn key is constantlly being pressed. Very cannoying, I just want to do an insert edit without holding the fn button.
Note: I delibertlly left words misspelled as a tribute to my frusteration of the afore mentioned problem...

I forgot to mention this only is an issue with "Sticky Keys" turned on, due to my physical condition this is an option I cannot operate without...
