C8180 starts and stops on it's own.....

My 3yr old, but seldom used, C8180 All-in-One color printer is acting weird and won't stay operating.
I've always shut it down when not in use, but yesterday I went to my home office to boot up my desktop pc and noticed my HP printer was trying to startup all on it's own, then it shut down after just a few seconds on it's own without me touching it. When it tries to start up, the little display screen comes on and the task bar at the bottom of the display is scolling across like it's trying to start up. But before it can start up, it shuts down on it's own.....then the whole process starts over again in about 20 secs or so.
I've disconnected the power cord to be sure it's reset, but that seems to have no bearing on the start/stop thing going on. So, now I've unpluged it until I can find some answers here.
Is there another way to "reset" the whole printer other than just the power reset? I've been researching all the HP support pages on their website, but my issues is not addressed.....that I can find anyway.
Please help!!!!!!!

Hello Fixvet. I will send you a private message on how to perform a more powerful reset. Please check your inbox.

You don't need to upgrade your software. But if you're struggling with Spry, IMO you should cut your losses and switch to something better for the longrun.
If you have a budget to work with, I highly recommend Project Seven's Pop-Menu Magic 3. It's easy to use in DW CS4, 5, 6 or CC. More importantly, it's bullet proof and works in all devices.

If you don't have a budget to work with, you can roll your own menus with jQuery plugins. A bit more effort on your part, but they perform better than Spry.

Starting and stopping applications via a Java-application on Windows/Unix

Hello,
I want to start java and other applications via a java application.
This java application should start several different applications on windows and
on unix systems and take care of their current state (e.g. running/not running).
For all applications to be started there are .sh-scripts for unix and .bat-scripts
for windows. In the scripts there could be a java call, e.g. "java someApplication",
or some executables could be called. These scripts set the applications' environment etc.
and start the application finally.
My java application calls these scripts via the ProcessBuilder API, which is working fine.
But there is the following problem: on windows, when executing a script that starts
some other application, the ProcessBuilder gives me process-handle to the started
process. If calling destroy() on this handle, only the cmd.exe gets killed which
started the application. The application itself is running on. This is undesired behaviour
since I want to be able to control the started applications, at least start and stop it which
is impossible that way.
On unix, it is working when using
"exec java someApplication"
instead of just
"java someApplication"
in the .sh-scripts. The exec command substitutes the shell process with the underlying
process started in the script, so everything is working as expected on unix.
But how could I get this working on windows systems? Is there any equivalent to the exec
command on unix? Any suggestions appreciated.
If something's unclear in my description, please let me know.

Yes - after looking at this option - I think that's the direction I am going to go. It probably makes sense to give my JMS topics and my BPEL server their own OC4J instances anyway - for a number of reasons.

Starting and stopping video and MP3

I can't seem to get around my video and audio files starting when I arrive at the page. I'm even using some example code with start and stop buttons. This is in CS4 Flash. I expect it's because the ActionScript is in the wrong place because when I run the movie it flashes through all of the pages on the site without stopping at the home page. Is there some generic code that will allow me to simply swap out the name of the video or audio file I want to start. If there is, do I need to locate it on its own layer at the top of the timeline? Thanks to anyone who can help.

>>Why is it that the default setting for a video player placed on the stage
is to start playing when the page appears? I would think it would be
paused.<<
I don't know it doesn't seem any more logical to have it paused. I assume it
is just a preference on the part of the developers of Flash.
>>Is there some piece of script that can correct this situation<<
There are several ways to pause the video playback at teh beginning of the
Flash movie. It actually depends on how you have the movie inserted into the
time line. If you used an FLVPlayback component, then all you have to do is
click to select the component, open the component inspector
(window>component Inspector) and se the autoplay value for the component to
false. If you have the video inserted another way let me know.
>>Forgive my naivete but I am trying to learn the ways of Actionscript
wherever I can find it and builds something at the same time.<<
Thats always hard. What tecnology do you normally work with Ajax? C++
The comment about the behavior of video suggests you work with a technology
that has the opposite autoplay behavior.

Starting and Stopping an Instance

We are looking at setting up our CF10 server such that each application will be in its own instance, and allowing the developers access to their own instance. Is there any way to start and stop the instances from within the instance? We are hoping that there is some way to do this without logging into the cfusion administrator to manage the restarts of each instance. We are installed on Windows.
Thanks!
Jenn

The administrator could run the following code:
<cfscript>
instanceName="bkbk";
createObject("component", "CFIDE.adminapi.administrator").login("admin_password") ;
serverInstanceObject=createObject("component", "CFIDE.adminapi.serverinstance");
// start the instance of given name
serverInstanceObject.startInstance(instanceName);
// stop the instance of given name
// serverInstanceObject.startInstance(instanceName);
</cfscript>

Flash video is just awful - starts and stops

10.6.8 iMac 4Gb ram. Main browser Firefox.
Flash video has gotten progressively worse with Adobe updates over last 3 months. Used to run youtube smooth as glass.
Now yt video runs for a 30 sec then stops, restarts after 5seconds, runs for 15, stops for 5. If you rerun the same video (see wrchd.com for Argentine Rally preview video), it stops and starts at the same spots.
I have Little snitch running a you can see a nice buffer load of data come in to start the video, then there is a period when there's no activity until it stops. It sort of like Flash gets carried away watching its own display and forgets to get more info.
Same results watching dailyshow.
I've tried turning hardware acceleration in Flash off and on with no change in performance.
So why does Flash fail now?
Thanks for any advice.

Is the video starting and stopping or just the audio? What OS, browser, and Flash Player Version are you using? Can you also provide us with a URL to try out?
Thanks,
Chris

Using the spacebar for starting and stopping a clip does not work

Hi!
The spacebar for starting and stopping the playing of a clip in the viewer of a sequence in the timeline has a live of its own. Without changing any setings, it sometimes works, but mostly not. Is there a seeting, I have not figured out yet? While in a session with Final Cut Express, it does not change its behavior. It starts with a working or not working spacebar. The same applies to the arrows to go back and for a frame, or back and for a clip. If the spacebar does not work, the arrows do not work either.

thanks everybody. But my spacebar and arrow keys still do not work.
As uggested, I deleted the preferences in the library (which is also what is suggested by fcpbook.com/Misc1.html)
I am used working with Final Cut for some time now. And just got myself a new iMac and the program. So everything is quite new. I did not change any settings so far.
The first 2 days everything was fine.
Then, one day, the spacebar and the arrow key stopped working. Not in the middle of a session, but when I started the FCE new. Inbetween, it worked for some time. Now, the spacebar is gone again.
It's just the function of playing the clip that does not work. In whatever window (timeline, viewer). The function of the spacebar to make a space (for example in te name of clip or in a text file) works fine.
I would not mind the spacebar that much, but I miss the arrow keys to go from frame to frame, or from clip. It's strange.

Start and Stop Trigger using PXI-6120 and DigitalStartAndStopTrigger.vi not working :-(

Hello,
I've been trying for a while now to get my PXI unit to capture a waveform between a Start and Stop (Reference) Trigger using the NI example DigitalStartAndStopTrigger.vi downloaded from the NI website. However, whilst the start trigger and stop trigger seem to be working i.e. the VI runs and stops at the correct times there is never any data read from my DAQmx compatible PXI-6120 card. So I can see the VI is running around the aquisition loop but the Property Node AvailSampPerChan is always returning zero... this has me slightly puzzled. I thought this might just be a driver issue so I've updated my box to the following software versions (see below) and installed the latest drivers e.g. DCDNov07.exe (also from the NI site) but nothing has changed.
my software as of now.
Labview 7.1 (with the 7.1.1 upgrade applied)
Max 4.3.0.49152
DAQmx 8.6.0f12
Trad DAQ 7.4.4f7
before I updated I had the same problem but with the following versions:
Labview 7.1 (with the 7.1.1 upgrade applied)
Max 4.2.1.3001
DAQmx 8.5.0f5
Trad DAQ 6.9.3f4
So to cut a long story short I still have the same problem with the triggers... does anybody have any ideas what is going wrong?
To add insult to injury it the traditional DAQ example ai_start-stop_d-trig.vi was almost working correctly before I did the upgrade. It had the strange behaviour of capturing the AI0 channel but on the wrong edges (e.g. if I set Start on Rise and Stop on Fall it would do the opposite, Start on Fall and Stop on Rise).
I'm going to leave my box doing a mass compile over night but i'd really like it if someone could suggest a solution or point me in the right direction.
Many thanks,
Mike

Hi Graham
I'm out of the lab today but I'll try and answer your questions as best I can...
1) What are the values you have set for Buffer size, Rate, samples per read and post trigger Samples?
At the moment I have all the values (e.g. sample rate, buffer size etc) unchanged apart from the ones I mentioned in my previous post (see above). I have in the past played around with changing the buffer sizes and rates in the example VI but as this appeared to have no effect on the behaviour I now have them setup as in the download.
2) Does the program end after the stop trigger is implemented?
Yep, if I toggle the trigger line high then low I see the program exits the read loop and the VI stops running as expected.
3) Lastly can you give me the details of triggering method. Are you
using a digital train of users set digital pulses? how long is the
program running.I'm using the WriteDigChan.vi to manually toggle the first digital line of the PXI-6733 card which is wired directly to PFI0 of the PXI-6120 card. Generally, I just start the VI running and then toggle the line high, wait a couple of seconds and then toggle it low.
To me it all looks like it should be acquiring samples but as I said yesterday it just refuses to fill the buffer with any data (and hence no samples are read).
Any ideas? and thanks for you help,
Mike

Need help getting Tomcat 5.0.28 to start (and stop, eventually)

Hi!
I am such a newbie to the Terminal and writing scripts, so please forgive my naiveté. I have successfully installed Tomcat in my /usr/local directory, but I am having trouble creating files to start and stop Tomcat, per the instructions on the following page:
http://developer.apple.com/internet/java/tomcat1.html
I've followed the directions but continue to get the following error after I execute ~/bin/start_tomcat.
-bash: start_tomcat: command not found
My file contains the following code:
#!/bin/sh /n
export CATALINA_HOME=/usr/local/jakarta-tomcat-5.0.28 /n
export JAVA_HOME=/usr /n
$CATALINA_HOME/bin/startup.sh /n
If anyone can help me, I would really, really, really appreciate it!
Thanks!

Why are there all those "/n" there? Either you or the place you copied from has the wrong slash. But still, it's wronger than that to have them at all: "\n" means a newline (i.e., press "return") not the actual "backslash en" characters. Sometimes people post code with those \n visible: by making it explicit where a line-break should be, one doesn't have as much trouble when a web browser reformats the text and puts line breaks where they don't belong.

Report on active sync actions (like starting and stopping the sync)

Is there a way to report on who stopped or started an active sync? I'm guessing it has to be stored somewhere, but I can't find it.
Thanks!

Hi Smit,
I believe you are talking about FMS AWS instance and you may be using a centos 4.0.2 instance AMI or lower?
Well ... earlier, options for stopping a centos AWS image was not available, but recently they are there in place, so I suppose if you use a new centos 4.5.1 AMI then probably you can start stop the aws instance on yuor will. Give ut a shot and let me know.
Regards,
Shiraz Anwar
I again cross-checked and found that you were right, start and stop is not supported there .... an alternative method is to take a snapshots of the runinng instnace and terminate that instance after that, later you can use your snapshot to attach to the EBS volume to run your system again. You may need to use the Elastic IP address, because you wont like your users to update each time you terminate the old instance, and create new instance from snapshot. I have never used it in this way, but this is one of the approach.

Music starts and stops during playback of burned DVD

I really need help with this problem...I made a slideshow and added music from itunes in the program IDVD. Once I burned the DVD the music will start and stop throughout the DVD and not at chapters as I read in other threads - but in random places on the DVD. The DVD sounds like it gets hung up and then starts again. This is my first project using IDVD, so any help would be great.

Debra,
Do your project have music purchased from iTunes? If so, that could be the cause of this problem. Music from iTunes is DRM-protected and can cause problems in playback. To take care of this, first burn all of your purchased music to a CD, then reimport in an aiff format. To do this, in iTunes, go to iTunes>Preferences>Advanced>Importing. Look for "Import using", and use the drop-down menu to select AIFF encoder.
Good luck.

In Month View, showing start and stop times for appointments

Hi, I want to show both the start and stop times for all appointments in my iCal Month view and have not been able to figure out how to do that. Any suggestions? - Dave

I would also like to know how to do this if possible. I want to print month-view schedules with start and end times for events. Thought I'd bump this up to see if anyone has any ideas.

Printing event start and stop times

In month view, is there any way to have both the start and stop times for an event show when you print the calendar so you can see the duration of an event - thanks.

You might be able to use this script to reset the start/stop times to zero. Try with a small selection and see if it works for you.

Start and stop a loop automatically subtracting at each iteration

Hi there,
I know that there are some topics about it, but I could not find any solution, especially because I use the version 7.1 and cannot open new version files.
My problem is as follows:
I need to charge a tank from 6 to 10 in the morning, every day during 3 days. The process must start and stop automatically, which means, no bottoms to start or stop. The start and stop conditions come from the hour.
I start with a big loop of 72 iterations, which corresponds to 72 hours.
The tank must start at level 6 every time it starts.
After the start, 1 unit must be subtracted in each iteration. Which means, that at 6 am the tank has level 10, at 7 am level 9 and so on. In the end, at 10 am the tank level is equal to 2.
In the next day, the process must start again and the tank must start at level 6.
Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.
Solved!

While this may work it can be improved significantly. This really isn't a state machine. This is basically the same as your flat sequence with the exception of using a While loop with a Case statement to implement each frame.
You should define what your actions are and create a typedefed ENUM naming them. State names of 1 through 24 are meaningless. Not to mention in your code many of the cases are duplicates of others. That would mean that all of those can be one state with logic to determine what action/state comes next. A properly defined state machine would not need the outside For loop. Without knowing your specific needs some examples of reason state names would be the following: Start, Stop, Exit, Error, Initialize, Get Tank Level, Fill Tank, Drain Tank, Idle, etc. Can you see how these are easier to understand than 1 through 24.
There are lots of examples of state machines here. Try a search and take a look at some of them.

Adding Start and Stop characters to a text field???

"For 1D bar codes, there are two options depending on the type of PDF form you want to use. Forms that you create in Acrobat (acroforms) can be set up to use a bar code font with a standard text field. If you want to include the standard start and stop character (*) and/or a check character, you can use JavaScript to add them. The check character would have to be calculated, but that can be easily done with JavaScript."
How would i go about doing this. My current PDF form will pull a last name and first name onto the form in a Barcode format, but i need to add in *LNM to the start and another * at the end of the data that was pulled from a SQL data base. example the pdf has a Text Feild named "borrower1_last_name" and that filed pulls the last name.. So i was thinking there should be an easy script like you said to add in to that feild properties.
posting here now, becasue no one seems to be able to point me to the correct resourse on the reader forum.

okay.. so now how do I change the space between the first name and middle inital (and even the last name) in that same field?
something like this looks like it should work but doesnt seem to do anything.
str.replace(/ /g, "_");
// Add an asterisk to the beginning and end of the value
if (event.value) event.value = "*FNM" + event.value + "*";
//Replace black spaces with an Underscore
str.replace(/ /g, "_");
