Being ahead of the game
First and Foremost absolutly love my mac book pro. its been great. my only complaint is being ahead of the game. what i mean is waiting for software to cross over to be universal. right now im waiting for pro tools LE 7 Mpowerd, reason 3.0, final cut pro, photoshop etc... now like ive told all my friends i would rather be ahead of the game but honestly i would rather be in the middle of it. most of these things will be available soon, but never soon enough. really this isnt a problem with my computer rather just waiting for the rest of the world to catch up with the speed it provides. cant wait to see what this puppy can really do. well i guess this is just for all of you out there who too are waiting. good luck and hold on best you can.
hm, lets see. we can be patient and get hot new binaries as soon as the world can figure out how to code them and have our computer experience, bizarrely enough, get faster and more impressive - instead of the typical "oo its fast - to - **** i need an upgrade". you're buying the technology once instead of buying what works now, just to buy something better again soon. personally its odd to me- its almost like buying a car and not have it devalue itsself the moment i take it home.

I am being prompted for the questions for my apple ID. I have put what I think are the answers and it is still not letting me purchase games from my account. I try to send the answers to my e-mail and I am not getting them. I had account issues about a year ago where my id was spelled wrong. Could this be associated with that?

Ravens Game 12/8/13 - Why is the Game being telecasted in Spanish on Channel 510
Why is the Ravens game being telecasted in Spanish on Channel 510??
I am calling Verizon Tech Support right now. This is ridiculous. I am listening to the game on WBAL. Comcast is broadcasting in English, according to my neighbor.

I play solitaire fr the (game center on I pad. I can be up 75 points but suddenly opponent jumps 50-100 points ahead of me. I tap the cards and know the original solitaire game. But ca cot understand how the win so quickly. I hv tried reading material abt this but find no answer. Anita
Read the reviews for the app and see if others have the same issue. If they do, then you know it's not just you and could be something with the app or something.

regarding of the game that I playing, its Dragonvale, I plan to buy a Gem. and after I desided to buy, but what happen is that the game centre it self didnt gave me the Gem but instead they said "Connection Error. The Game server had an internal error. Please try again later."
so if thats the case of error transaction..so why the BACKFLIP STUDIOS(DragonVale) charged me to my credit card for the Gem that I never received.

Is there any way to repeat grid shuffling at constant intervals while the game is being played ?
Hello all !
With the help of some generous members of this forum i have completed an "Alphabet Clicking" game. There is a grid of alphabet
movieclips which gets shuffled when the player clicks the "Start Button". Simultaneously, a count-up timer is trigerred. Depending
on the initial choice of incentive made by the player before clicking the "Start Button" , the player will either win or lose the incentive
based on the time-limit set for each incentive.
Eg., if the player chooses an incentive of 10 $ the player may have 90 seconds to complete the game. If 50 $, then the player gets
only 20 seconds, and so on.... To make the game more thrilling and exciting, i wanted to add an additional functionality for a
very high incentive, like for example, if the player chooses an incentive of 100 $, not only that the player gets just 20 seconds
to complete the clicks, but the Grids will automatically get shuffled at every 5 second interval.The code that i am using (as guided
by kglad of this forum) is as given below. Its a perfect code, but like i said, i wish to know how to add yet one more
functionality [eg. repeated shuffle at set intervals] to this code. I tried using (a) conditional statements or (b) running the shuffle code
inside a timer etc., but they dont seem to work.
startBtn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, trigGame)

function startF():void{

e.currentTarget.alpha=.5;
e.currentTarget.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN,downF);
if(mcs.indexOf(e.currentTarget)==mcs.length-1){
gameoverF(); startBtn.visible = true;
} else {
errors++;
function gameoverF():void{
// display congrats if errors 0 or some other low number
// when you want to restart the game, call startF().
function shuffle(a:Array) {
var p:int;

That didn't help. I want to completely delete the game from the store so it can not be reinstalled again
The only way your child could have installed an app from the App Store is that he or she has access to your Apple ID and your administrator account. Give the child his own standard user account, and change the passwords.
To delete the downloaded app, drag it to the Trash. You may be prompted for your password. -
This freezing problem that I am having only happens when there is a moving character in the game. For example, when I hit the left arrow to move them left, the game, in a way, skips the action, and then jumps ahead to after the character has moved. I am not sure whether that would be freezing up or just skipping. I have updated all of my plugins, and I do not know what else to try.
Hello,
Try disabling graphics hardware acceleration. Since this feature was added to Firefox, it has gradually improved, but there still are a few glitches.
You might need to restart Firefox in order for this to take effect, so save all work first (e.g., mail you are composing, online documents you're editing, etc.).
Then perform these steps:
*Click the orange Firefox button at the top left, then select the "Options" button, or, if there is no Firefox button at the top, go to Tools > Options.
*In the Firefox options window click the ''Advanced'' tab, then select "General".
*In the settings list, you should find the ''Use hardware acceleration when available'' checkbox. Uncheck this checkbox.
*Now, restart Firefox and see if the problems persist.
Additionally, please check for updates for your graphics driver by following the steps mentioned in the following Knowledge base articles:
* [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]]
* [[Upgrade your graphics drivers to use hardware acceleration and WebGL]]
Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
Thank you. -
Most of the games on my iPod classic 4g will not play anymore. I get a message that is of no help and when i synced the games they disappeared. What is going on and where have the games for iPods on iTunes gone ?
Apple removed the clickwheel games from the iTunes Store back in September.
Have you tried a hard reset of the iPod to see if that helps resolve the issue of not being able to play the games? To do this, first make sure the Hold Switch is in the OFF position, then press and hold both the Select (Center) and Menu buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.

Urgent complaint against the company for the game (Call of War 2)
HI Apple Customer
I want to lodge a complaint against the company for the game Call of War 2 where they were paid large sums of money to buy gold from within the game , and the problem is that the game does not work properly in this talk to my complaint on behalf of a lot of people affected by this game
The beginning of my problem with them is that I paid $ 10 dollars to buy gold from within the game and did not I receive gold and filed a complaint and you 've Pthoila link to the company and the amount demanded , but did not recover to now
Second, you then ship went at least $ 200 in order to increase my points within the game , but what happened unlooked
Where she lost a lot of points in the game through suspension compulsory in the game during the winning entry for the battle where the message appears ( There was an error in the game and is being re- loaded (
Causing heavy losses to me where I went in the amounts paid by the wind
I am not the only one suffering from this problem , but all the players in the game and what they are Arabs and our own website in English , they do not know how to make a complaint to you
Of the problems that I face when I entered I battle to download and try to destroy the enemy soldiers and earn points .. got an error message appears and the game is being re- uploaded because of this and lost a lot of points
In contrast, the enemy attacked by Ali and win and take the points, losing my points from both sides , not only one side
To prove that you have attached pictures
In addition to this when my complaint is they do not respond quickly , and that was answered say that Gary solve the problem for them and what has not been nearly two weeks to solve the problem
The tickets are closing the complaint without my consent and my advice so
Lost in the game nearly 100 points and lost a lot of mattresses because of their problems and in spite of my claim Ptaubi but they do not care about it any attention , where only care about attracting players to buy gold through without paying attention to the daily announcements technical support and solving problems of the game
Picture number one shows the attack, which I've done and lost it , and the reason is that the game is stopped and failed landing soldiers what caused the loss of points
The second picture shows the defense so that also lost a lot of points
I can not attack while the other players came to heavy losses and lost
I hope compensatory and accounting problems that the company did not end
And to you my thanks and appreciationPlease be aware that you are not communicating with Apple when you post in these forums. These are user-to-user support forums, so in almost all cases the only people who will reply to your posts are, like me, your fellow users.

After months of not being able to finish New York, the bottoms of the tiers allowed me to finish out that level.
Made it through Cuba just fine.
Then into Moscow, the same thing that was happening in New York is repeating in Moscow, but not in every tier.

Screen shots would be too numerous to try and load into this message. Too large a file.I am having the same problem with Treasure Island and PetVille. When I click on the "Play" tab on both of them, I get a blank blue screen; however, I have no problem playing any other games like Sorority Life. So why is the new version of Firefox having an issue supporting Zynga games and Internet Explorer isn't? Would reinstalling an older version of Firefox fix it, and where can you get an older version to download?

icreative,
To me if you are looking at current products (this would exclude the Zen Micro Photo, we haven't really seen it in action much yet) then my call would be the Zen Touch + the FM Wired remote. That puts it at about $299 and gives it features to match or exceed the others.
Jeremy
Maybe in hardware the Touch is better but you have to accept that when it comes to software ipods are a much better solution, plus also in the aviability of accesories ipod also wins by far. I own a Touch 40GB and I have been unable to find a decent cover for it, the FM Wired Remote is nowhere to be found, not being able to access the Touch like a dri've letter and having to install drivers in every PC that you want to use it is really annoying. Although this is relati've to who is hearing the music I do think the touch sounds better than the ipod, but not having some simple audio features like bass, trebel etc. is also something that I regret not having in the touch (the EQ is not that good in my opinion). And althogh I don't realy care about these extra features like the sleep, alarm, calendar, games, some users would apreciate this features. Maybe if you could merge the micro with the touch you could argue about it being better than the ipod. But sadly enough the micro doesn't have the storage capacity the the Touch has which for me is also very important. As SRR said, it alls comes down to what you are looking for a player.Message Edited by lsd_us3r on 04-05-2005 :02 PM -

The problem i am facing is :
the FIRE button is not functioning, i put a system.out.println and it didnt print.
i am unsure whether i put the key input listener at the correct function
this button is supposed to start the game again.
What i want to do :
i want to display the main menu when i launched the game
when game is over, it will display back to the main menu again
when i press the fire button it will play the game again.
i hope someone can help me on this :)kdoom wrote:

i hope someone can help me on this :)You didn't have to create a whole new post just for the formatted code, silly. You could have just replied in the old thread. Anyway:
Step through the program and think about what each line is doing. Most importantly:
public void run() {
while (!gameOverState){
update();
draw(getGraphics());
try{
Thread.sleep(frameDelay);
}catch(InterruptedException ie){}
gotoMainMenu(getGraphics());
}This says that while the game is being played, update( ), then draw( ). When the game is over, call gotoMainMenu( ).
private void gotoMainMenu(Graphics graphics) {
//do a bunch of graphics stuff
int keyState = getKeyStates();
if ( (keyState & FIRE_PRESSED) != 0 ){
System.out.println("game start");
gameOverState = false;
}This says to do a bunch of graphics stuff, and then to check the key states. If fire is being pressed, print something out and set gameOverState to false. This check only happens once. When the state is being checked, most likely the user will not be pressing any keys, so the code is done.
Also, simply setting the gameOverState variable to false outside of the loop you use it in won't do anything. For example:
boolean doLoop = true;
int count = 0;
while(doLoop){
count++;
if(count > 10){
doLoop = false;
doLoop = true;Would you expect that second doLoop = true to start the while loop over? -
Would like to know the name of the game pre-installed on an eMac.
I would like to know the name of the space ship 3rd-person shooter game pre-installed on an eMac.
Awhile back, I had used an eMac with a previous employer and there was a space ship 3rd-person shooter game loaded on the eMac.
This may or may not have been preinstalled. I just remember it being there when the eMac was purchased.
Thoughts?
Thanks,
--ToddHello Todd,
I think the game you refer to is called Deimos Rising. It can be purchased from here...
Deimos
Hope that is the one!
