Can i turn off the computer which songs are transferring from
i am currently transeffering songs, via homesharing, from an old computer to a new one, i have selected all the songs i want to be importe ad and theyre currently being imported, but there are many more songs whic remain to be imported. My question is can the old computer now be turned off or can it only be turned off once all the songs have been imported?
This can easily be done using a Hot Corner. Bt for this to work, you should set the computer to Never Sleep.
To Setup a Hot Corner to put the screen to sleep:
1. Open your System Preferences.
2. Click on Desktop and Screen Saver
3. On the top you will see 2 tabs Click on the one that says Screen Saver.
4. On the bottom of the Screen Saver Window click on Hot Corners.
5. Hold down the Control Key and click on one of the 4 screen corners
6. Continue holding down the Control Key and then select Put Display To Sleep.
You shoudl see something like this.
Click on OK and quit the System Prefs.
Now whenever you want to run a process and have the screen off, just hold down the control key and move the mouse to the corner you designated. The screen will turn off and your process will continue.
Don't forget though that you should set your sleep prefs to Never otherwise your Mac may go to sleep before your calculations are done.

How can I turn-off the apps which I have opened once in ISO 7.0.2. In previous version of ISO it was easy to turn-off the opened apps by double clicking on home button and then click and hold on respective apps then click on cross sign but in this version I could not do so and my iPad appears slower.
Close inactive apps
1. Double tap the home button to bring up the multi-tasking view
2. Swipe the app's windows upwards to close
3. The app will fly off the screen -

Well, if you're running linux you could use Runtime.getRuntime().exec() to execute 'halt -p', if the process was being run as root. Not terribly elegant but I suppose it would work. Although I wouldn't want an unattended process running as root.Yes, this is how you can do it, but on Windows machines as well. I'll go into pseudocode:
App1: Server (running on every lab machine)
open server socket on port X
wait for connection
verify connection is yourself so that not everyone can shut it down
if not, wait for connection again
if it is, run halt for linux or shutdown for windowsApp2: Client (running on just your computer)
open a socket to each machine running the server app (or you could use multicasting)
validate yourself however you did that
close socketThere are some implications of this though - unless your validation mechanism is decent, pretty much anyone can shut down anything they want. Also, if you don't check for a logged-in user, you may destroy someone's work. Just keep those in mind.
Also, if it is a Windows setting, there are usually better ways to do this - a well-managed windows network has built-in functionality to shut down computers remotely.

Hello! I got my computer today and then I wanted to transfer all my pictures from my Iphone to the computer so I could delete the pics on my phone. So I plugged the phone in and started the process. Suddenly it stopped to transfer pictures and was standing still for a long time so I canceled the transferring. Then it asked if I wanted to keep the pictures that were already transferred so I confirmed it twice but the computer didn't react so then I clicked on delete. So I tried to start the process again by plugging the phone in and out one time. I clicked on transfer all but it was saying that they have to finish the first one first that I had canceled. So then I tried with my camera and it still said the same thing. I have tried to close Iphoto but that didn't work either. I can't even turn the computer off because then it says that I have to close Iphoto and I couldn't do that. So everything just stands still right know and I really need to transfer the pictures and I need to turn off the computer. Sorry for the long question but I really need help, hope the question is understandable / Linn

All the websites doesn't allow you to turn off the sounds, but that is just the thing I need to do. So how can I turn off the web browsers sounds? This is so small thing, that I refuse to believe that this kind of button doesn't exits.
In Vista you can set the volume and mute setting for each application separately in the volume mixer.
You can click the Volume icon on the Windows Taskbar near the clock and click the Mixer link at the bottom to open the mixer.<br />
You can adjust the volume level for each application in that window.<br />
You will only see the Firefox program in the Mixer if you are on a website that plays sound. -

Can I turn off the monitor for Mac Mini and use it as a music server?
I am in the process of upgrading my PC most likely to a Mac product. With the non-server version of Mac OS X, can I turn off the monitor connected to a Mac Mini and use it as a streaming server? Or I have to get the server version of OS X to do that?
I plan to run Logitech Media Server on the Mac to stream music to players. Each player interacts with the Logitech Media Server to select songs to stream. When I turn on a player, it will wake up the computer from the sleep mode.
Currently, this Logitech Media Server runs on a Windows Vista machine and it will keep the PC from entering sleep mode while playing the songs. After I play the last song, the PC will start the idle count down and then enter into sleep mode.
Do you see any problem with my intended use of a Mac Mini? -
Dear Colleagues,
I am currently developing a J2EE application using WLS 6.1.
My team and I have to implement a security requirement to suit our company's needs.
The security requirements are that, users' password need to be aged (30 days maximum) and we need to provided a GUI front-end (JSP) to allow users to change their password when these expire after 30 days.
Our internal contacts in the company, have already taken the lead to find out about whether we will be able to use the WLS 6.1 platform to do this and the answer we got back, was.
Now we need to develop our own security module.
I have 2 questions:
1. How can we turn off the WLS security in order develop our own application-based security module?
2. How can we develop a security module that allows us to age users' password and provide them with facilities to change their passwords when these expire?
At the moment, we are using the default BEA WebLogic login.jsp page and there some configuration in the web.xml for this. I will be grateful if you could advise me on how to turn this default security off so that we can write our own security module.hi,
1.You can write your own realm in 61 which can plugged for your security
calls.
2. once you write your ownrealm.. you can access it through weblogic
api/ur api..
thanks

How can I turn off the sound from the original midi or audio tracks when I edit or listen to the duplicate tracks in Logic Pro 9 ?
I'm using iMac desktop with Mac OS X Version 10.7.3. Pls advise.Dan,
It sounds like one of your preferences has changed.
Go to preferences > audio > general, and make sure "track mute/solo" is set to "CPU saving (slow response)". It is probably set to "Fast " at the moment.
This setting (fast) basically causes immediate muting from the channel strip while your song is in play. This is because the audio is still being read from the hard drive, but the channel strip is simply muted.... like a hardware mixer. When set to "CPU saving", the audio from that track, when muted, is actually stopped from streaming from the hard drive, but there is a couple second delay before the audio is actually muted.
One would think that the fast setting is generally preferable, except when you need to do what you are doing. The only way to keep duplicate copies of channel strips acting independent of one another is to leave this setting on the "CPU saving" setting.
Hope that helps
Maybe you are looking for
