Can i configure the appearance/elements of mac os x windows?

Allright. I'm using 10.4.11 (Tiger) on an iBook G4. In all my windows that open, the vertical scrollbar that appears on the right-side has the 'up' and 'down' buttons situated at the bottom, together, on top of one another. Can I configure it to have the 'page up' button at the top and 'page down' button at the bottom or both buttons at the top? Second, can I configure which side of a window title bar the 'Minimize', 'Maximize', and 'Close' buttons appear on, say left-side or right-side?
I know, I know ... the whole idea behind owning/using a Mac is to "Think Different" and believe me, I love my Mac, but sometimes I also "like what I like and like it the way I like it!"
Thanks.  :-)

On the Scroll arrows, System Preferences>Appearance>Place scroll bars at top & bottom.
The buttons, no, err... only with use of a mirror!

    Read and follow the Bootcamp Installation instructions that you were offered to view when you ran Bootcamp Assistant.
    Run Bootcamp Assistant again and select the option to download the Bootcamp Support software. Follow the instructions. Then boot into Windows and install the Windows Support software you downloaded and saved.

  • HT1145 I can't see my files on my USB shared drive.  It shows there is lots of space taken up, but I can't access the files via my Mac.

    I can't see my files on my USB shared drive.  It shows there is lots of space taken up, but I can't access the files via my Mac.  How do I see them?  I also can't see them on my iPad using FileBrowser.

    You don't have access to it to configure it via Time Machine? You lost me on that one, Time Machine is used for Backup.
    Here is a basic article on the first setup and what you should see:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1178
    To configure Time Capsule you should be using "Airport Utility" 5.3 or higher that is located in the Utilities folder. You can tell if its version 5.3 because the icon will have blue lines instead of orange lines like the older versions. Since you are running Leopard 10.5.6 and you ran Software Update you are probably already running the latest 5.3 version.
    The light flashing amber means you haven't entered enough information so that it can get to the internet. Once you have that info entered the light will turn green.
    If your absolutely sure your CAT5 cables are good you can try a hard reset. I think you have to push the reset button on the back and hold it for 5 seconds or so until the amber light blinks rapidly, then when you release the button it does the reset then.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1300?locale=en_US
    Hope this helps! If not I would probably call AppleCare support or see if you can exchange it.

  • Tomcat 5.5 context.xml, how to configure the Host element

    [Probably this question should be asked elsewhere, if so please advise]
    Dear all,
    I understand that Tomcat 5.5 prefers that your web application comes with a context.xml file under the META-INF folder.
    So I added a context.xml file under the META-INF folder of my web application,
    please have a look below.
    context.xml
    <Context path="" docBase="C://Program Files//Apache Software Foundation//Tomcat 5.5//webapps//test">
         <Resource
              name="jdbc/testDB"
              factory="org.apache.tomcat.dbcp.dbcp.BasicDataSourceFactory"
              auth="Container"
              type="javax.sql.DataSource"
              maxActive="10"
              maxIdle="5"
              maxWait="10000"
              removeAbandoned="true"
              removeAbandonedTimeout="60"
              logAbandoned="true"
              username="username"
              password="password"
              driverClassName="com.mysql.jdbc.Driver"
              url="jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/test" />
    </Context> Ok, that is good so far, but how do I configure the Host element.
    I mean how do you link a specific Host to a specific Context?
    Before, the Context element was a sub element of the Host element,
    now it is completely separated.
    Host in server.xml
    <Host name="www.test.com" deployOnStartup="true" debug="0" appBase="webapps" unpackWARs="true" autoDeploy="true" xmlValidation="false" xmlNamespaceAware="false">
         <Valve
              className="org.apache.catalina.valves.FastCommonAccessLogValve"
              prefix="test_access_log."
              suffix=".txt"
              pattern="common"
              directory="C://Program Files//Apache Software Foundation//Tomcat 5.5//webapps//test//logs"/>
    </Host> I assume that if I modify the appBase of the Host element from webapps to webapps/test then it would work, but if I have several
    Contexts for the specific Host, how should I configure it then?
    Please help by giving examples!

    OK, I have changed the Host's appbase to webapps/mytestapplication.
    I want to deploy a test.war under the appbase:
    webapps/mytestapplication/test.war
    The name of the host is www.test.com
    Because the war file is not named ROOT.war (instead it is named test.war),
    the URL to the test application would be www.test.com/test.
    Now I have several relative anchor links in the test application
    Say for example the test application is deployed and accessed through www.test.com/test.
    Clicking on the aboutus link would change to URL to www.test.com/aboutus.html.
    Instead, for this to work, the URL must be www.test.com/test/aboutus.html.
    Obviously, the easiest solution is to add /test before each anchor link:
    But the there must a different solution.
    Adding a path to Context element did not work:
    <Context path="/test" ...>
    </Context>
    Question:
    1. what is the solution for the anchor scenario above, should I add /test before each link?
    2. Is my configuration (can be seen at the bottom) correct?
    Basically, I have removed the path and docBase attributes from the Context element.
    I have also set autoDeploy to false in the Host element.
    Here are a few paragraphs from the docs:
    autoDeploy attribute of Host element:
    "Finally, note that if you are defining contexts explicitly,
    you should probably turn off automatic application deployment.
    Otherwise, your context will be deployed twice each, and that may cause problems for your app."
    OK, so I set autoDeploy to false since I am defining contexts explicitly, (META-INF/context.xml)
    docBase attribute of Context element:
    The value of this field must not be set when the Context
    is configured using a META-INF/context.xml file as it will be inferred by the automatic deployment process.
    So, I remove the docBase attribute eventhough I am confused a bit.
    This is the part that confuses me:
    If autoDeploy is set to false since I am defining contexts explicitly,
    how can then anything be inferred by the automatic
    deployment process? (please answer!)
    There should not be any automatic deployment process when autoDeploy is set to false.
    path attribute of Context element:
    The value of this field must not be set except when statically defining a Context in server.xml,
    as it will be inferred from the filenames used for either the .xml context file or the docBase.
    Same as the Context element.
    Thanks!

  • I've updated to the most recent version of iTunes and I can no longer see any of my old music on my mac.  All the music is still available on my ipad.  How can i download the music on my mac?

    I've updated to the most recent version of iTunes and I can no longer see any of my old music on my mac.  All the music is still available on my ipad.  How can i download the music on my mac?

    First, are you positive it is really not there?  Have you looked in your iTunes folder in your Music folder, and in the media folders there? Do you see your media files?
    If your media are gone it is a lot easier to restore from a proper computer backup.  Your i-device was not designed for unique storage of your media. It is not a backup device and media transfer was planned with you maintaining a master copy of your media on a computer which is itself properly backed up against loss. Syncing is one way, computer to device, updating the device content to the content on the computer, not updating or restoring content on a computer. The exception is iTunes Store purchases which can be transferred to a computer.
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848 - only purchases from iTunes Store
    For transferring other items from an i-device to a computer you will have to use third party commercial software.  See this document by turingtest2: Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device - https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991

  • I have updated my iPhone 3s to the latest software. I had backed up my phone before I did this. Now I have lost my music and apps. I can't sync the phone with my Mac, I can't re-download as the phone says I don't have any music or apps available. Help!

    I have updated my iPhone 3Gs to the latest software in an attempt to iron out a problem with a new telephone network provider (Tmobile). I had backed up my phone before I did this. Now I have lost my music and apps. I can't sync the phone with my Mac, I can't re-download from iTunes as the phone says I don't have any music or apps available to re-download although it all shows up on my Mac. The music and app content cannot be restored when I try to restore the phone from the back up I madeon my Mac. Help!

    Working on that now.  I'm just getting frustrated that everytime I run updates for the phone I end up with tech problems that I have to spend time solving as opposed to updates that actually improve my usage.  Now I will once again get to spend hours reloading my phone all for updates that didn't affect my usage in the first place.

  • How can I delete the files .DS_store in Mac OS Yosemite?

    How can I delete the files .DS_store in Mac OS Yosemite?

    The .DS_Store file is normal. It holds certain settings related to the folder it is found in. Removing these files is futile, as they will come back, as you have observed.
    If you are seeing them on your Mac, that means you have changed settings so that your Mac is showing invisible files in the Finder. To reverse that, run the following command in the Terminal:
    defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles NO
    This will hide them, and any other invisible files, from view.
    If you are seeing them on a Windows machine, just ignore them. They're not doing any harm.
    If you found a Terminal command that is supposed to stop them from being created, I would be extremely skeptical as to the wisdom of running it.

  • How can I access the selected element of a DropDownByIndex-box?

    Hi,
    I want to create a WebDynpro with two web services. I created the first request with the first web service and the results are displayed in a DropDownByIndex-Box. Now the user should choose one of the results and I would like to use this for the request with my second web service. How can I access the selected Element of a DropDownByIndexBox in the Code?
    Thank you!!
    Julia

    Hi Julia,
    when user select one element in drop down it automatically set lead selection of node binded to dropdown.
    For example if you bind a dropdown to node myNode with value attribute myAttribute the lead selection of node myNode is set in the position of element choose from user.
    So to take this chooised element use this code:
    wdContext.currentMyNodeElement.getmyAttribute()
    bye

    you can download the mac os x recovery hd and run the setup to a flash drive using another mac computer running os x 10.7,(so that while installation the os x setup can varify your computer's serial no. and provide you the installation setup through internet)
    or the time machine backup(if you have)

    If so have you done anything like update iTunes on the computer since it last successfully synced?

  • Can we configure the no of days an instance stay in engine db/workspace

    Oracle BPM 10.3 MP2 WL Version
    Can we configure the no of days , instance needs to stay in engine db after going to end.
    In process admin, under alengine - services tab - we have Disposer Latency and Instance Expiration properties.
    If Disposer Latency is set to 1 day, Instance Expiration is set to 15 days, does it mean that instance would stay in engine db / workspace for 15 days after reaching end of the process?
    If I want the instance level data to stay in engine db / workspace for 60 - 90 days, Can I achieve it by setting Instance Expiration to 60 / 90 days?

    The disposer latency specifies how often the queue of instances is looked at for disposal. If it is set to 2 days then the queue is evaluated every two days. If the instance expiration is set to 15 days then this is the minimum amount of time that an instance can sit in the End activity. Every 2 days the disposer looks at the instances that have sat in the End activity for at least 15 days. In theory, an instance can sit in the End activity for 16 days 23 hours and 59 minutes (15 days + almost 2 days).

  • Can we configure the dynamic IP address in receiver JDBC channel

    Hello,
    Can we configure the dynamic IP address in receiver JDBC communication channel at runtime.
    Thanks,
    Soorya.

    No, that is not possible.
    The simplest solution would be to define a service and communication channel for each server and then use the receiver determination to determine which service to send to.
    The only other way would be to use a receiver java proxy where you would have to code in the JDBC request yourself.
