Can someone explain whats happened here...

Hi guys, it appears something has gone wrong with my website somewhere.
www.allroots.org - page not displaying - www.allroots.org/retreats
Ive just made a new page from .dwt called retreats. When i preview the template on its own it all looks fine
but when i preview the retreats page made from template it doesnt display any of the images ive used in the
template or on the editable region of the retreats page.
Does this have anything to do with where my images are being saved or the name of my .html pages?
Not sure whats gone wrong, id appreciate any help you can offer.
Thanks
Benn

You are having us on, yes???
In case you are not, have a look at the following lines and tell us where the link to the images are. As far as I can tell there is only one link, that being the very first one.
<div id="sarkphoto"><img src="retreats page images/sar/www.allroots.org/retreats/retreats page images/sark.jpgk.jpg" width="439" height="146" alt="sark photograph" /> </div>

Can somebody explain what happens here??

Hi everyone.
I was just wondering if someone could explain the following piece of code to me.
Thanks a lot.
Transform3D t3d = new Transform3D();
Transform3D ct3d = new Transform3D();
Matrix4d matrix = new Matrix4d();
t3d.rotY(angle);
viewingPlatformTG.getTransform(ct3d);
ct3d.get(matrix);
ct3d.setTranslation(new Vector3d(0.0, 0.0, 0.0));
ct3d.mul(t3d);
ct3d.setTranslation(new Vector3d(matrix.m03, matrix.m13, matrix.m23));
viewingPlatformTG.setTransform(ct3d);
////////////////////////////////////////////////////

Well I think the following task shall be accomplished:
1)The rotation around the y axis should be concatenated to the rotation already done with the object.
2)The rotation center shall be the center of the object (here the Viewingplatform), i.e. the center of the local coordinate system.
For 2) first the translation part is saved in matrix (in fact the whole transformation is saved), then the translation part is set to 0,0,0 which leaves only the rotation part (thus the center of local coordinate system is center of global coordinate system). Then the new rotation is concatenated. Then the translation part (contained in matrix.m03, ...) is restored thus the object is at the original position again.
Hope that helps.

I have taken it back to the Apple store genius bar, but they say they don't see anything wrong. Well unless you use it all day and experience the problems when they happen, you wont see anything wrong. But there are lots wrong with it. But this would be the same store as I purchased the phone. And they backed up my old Iphone 4, but were not able to get anything to load back onto my new phone. So, I lost pretty much everything. But over time, some of my contacts have started showing up, although i am still missing over 800 of them.

GarageBand won't open! I can't explain what happens, so here's a video I made of the issue...

Please help! This is very important, as I work with music.

Hi Duckman,
I've asked for this thread to be moved to iLife > GarageBand. Hopefully you'll get a better response there here than this forum which is GarageBand for iOS.

Since syncing with iCloud all my photos in my photo app are much lower resolution than they were before. Can anyone explain what happened an how I might get back my high resolution photos?

Thanks again.
Unfortunately I don't have iPhoto (running Windows).
I did, however, figure out a work-around.
I created an empty directory on my computer, and told iTunes to "Sync Photos from..." that empty directory. This deleted all the photos from the iPod (go figure).
I then set the "Sync Photos from..." dropdown back to directory that actually contained all my photos, and sync'd again.
And, yes, they all loaded onto the iPod at their better, higher resolution.
Thanks for all your help. Photos (and wallpaper) are perfect, again

Can someone explain what DHCP is and how I do I connect to WiFi hotspot?

Can someone explain how a wireless network/router with an internet connection allows computers with a wireless card to connect to the internet? For instance, In an internet cafe with WiFi, how does my macbook get the IP address for the ISP that the cafe uses to allow me to open a webpage with Safari? What is DHCP and how should I set my internet preferences to allow me to use a network other than my own.
The reason I ask so many questions is that I can connect to the internet with my Airport Express base station network at home but not in my local WiFi cafe. Can see the network but not connect.

Most Internet Cafes utilize DHCP to dynamically provide a wireless client with an IP address for that session. DHCP is a protocol used by networked computers (clients) to obtain IP addresses and other parameters such as the default gateway, subnet mask, and IP addresses of DNS servers from a DHCP server. It facilitates access to a network because these settings would otherwise have to be made manually for the client to participate in the network.
You Mac's AirPort, in turn, is set up to be a DHCP client by default. This allows your Mac to accept the dynamically provided IP address information from the Internet Cafe's DHCP server.
The reason I ask so many questions is that I can connect to the internet with my Airport Express base station network at home but not in my local WiFi cafe.
It sounds like the AirPort settings that your Mac is using is no longer at their default settings...and my be the reason you cannot connect to the Internet at the Cafe...or, the Cafe has additional settings required. I suggest that you check with the Administrator of the particular Internet Cafe you're having trouble connecting with to find out what settings are necessary to use their wireless network.
A typical AirPort is set up as follows:
System Preferences > Network > Show > Network Port Configurations
- Verify that AirPort is "On" (checked)
- Verify that AirPort is at the top of the list. If it isn't, you can drag it to the top.
Systems Preferences > Network > Show > AirPort
AirPort tab
- By default, join: Automatic
TCP/IP tab
- Configure IPv4: Using DHCP
- Configure IPv6: Automatically or Off
Proxies tab
- Configure Proxies: Manually
- Select a proxy server to configure: <All proxies should be unchecked unless you specifically require a proxy for Internet access.>
- Exclude simple hostnames (unchecked)
- Bypass proxy settings for these Hosts & Domains: <leave blank>
- Use Passive FTP Mode (PASV) (checked)

Can someone explain what has happened to the "Classic" Text Tones such as Glass, Tritone? It was on my phone and last night they disappeared and I can find them anywhere.

All of the sudden those Classic tones are gone and I can't access them anymore. What happened to them? Makes me really upset because the new tones are so long.

> Go to settings
> Go to sounds
> Select ringtone
> Scroll down and you will see a "Classic" option , Select it
VOILA!!

Updated to Yosemite recently, keep on getting efi and kernel panics. Can someone explain what this report means?

This is the crash report I just got. I am just doing random work and this happens. I would really appreciate it if someone could explain what this means. I have fixed my computer with DiskWarrior 3 times but this just keeps happening. I also have bootcamp and it's doing absolutely fine.

You have the MacBookPro6,2—the Edsel of Macs. It may have the logic-board defect that was covered by a recall program that has now ended.
Residents of the EU may be entitled to warranty service for up to six years after purchase.
Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store, or go to another authorized service provider, to have the machine tested. The routine hardware diagnostics used by service providers do not detect the fault. There is a specific test for this issue that Apple calls "VST" (for "Video Switching Test.") Ask for it. A "Failed" result means that the fault is present.
You may be quoted a price of about $300 (in the U.S.) for a "depot repair," which involves shipping the unit to a central repair facility and takes about two weeks. For that flat fee, anything found wrong with it should be fixed, not just the logic board.
Sometimes the replacement part is also defective, so be prepared for that possibility. If you decide to pay for a new logic board, test thoroughly during the 90-day warranty period on the repair. Some owners have reported that they went through as many as three replacement boards before getting one that worked.
If you don't want to pay for the repair, you may (or may not) be able to work around the problem by disabling automatic graphics switching. To use the discrete graphics processor, you'll need a third-party utility to switch to it manually.
Often the problems start after an OS upgrade. If the upgrade was recent, and you have backups, then you can revert to a previous OS X version.

Streaming, can someone explain what I am doing wrong?

I have two ATVs both synced to one computer. I have a large music library on a second computer but can't find how to stream to one of the ATVs.
I followed the instructions in the booklet, opened iTunes on the relevant computer, chose sources on the ATV, "Connect to New iTunes" and noted the passcode, selected the ATV icon and "Click to set up", entered the passcode and the ATV icon disappeared. "My Library" shows in the sources but the ATV icon only re-appears on the computer if I switch to "Connect to New iTunes". If I then click on the icon the ATV page opens up with details of the ATV and a message saying that the ATV icon will only appear when "My Library" is selected on the ATV, but as soon as I do that the ATV icon disappears. The help file says in System Preferences sharing pane make sure "iTunes Music Sharing" is on! There is no "iTunes Music Sharing"!!
Please, can someone take this idiot through the process step by step, including how you start streaming once you have successfully made the connection?

Glad to see everything is starting to work out.
You might consider two user accounts (that's logins) with a music library in each. It's a little more work to operate, but probably less than having two libraries in one user account and providing both users are logged in and have itunes running you should get both libraries available to you at the same time on the tv (obviously you would need to switch between them on the tv).
Otherwise I'd consolidate them by opening itunes (with library 1) and then dragging and dropping the music files from the music folder of library 2 onto itunes, I'd start by doing a few tunes to satisfy yourself that all is OK, you can probably do them in large chunks but I'd probably not drag them all at once, if something did go wrong you probably wouldn't lose any files but it might be difficult to figure out what files had been added and which hadn't before the problem occurred.

Can someone explain what Automater is to me, in simple terms?

Hi, anyone out there wanna explain what Automater is for what it does etc.
Thanks in advance
Tracy

Hi Tracy
Launch Automator and select "Help Viewer Help?" from the Help Menu. One of the things you'll see listed there is:
*+Discover Automator+*
+Create time-saving automations without programming a single line of code.+
I'm currently on a mac running 10.4 but I can't see it being that different for 10.5? If you click on the link you get this explanation:
+Automator is an innovative personal automation assistant that makes it easy to automate repetitive tasks. Automator lets you skip the complex programming and scripting that is normally required to create automations. Individual steps called actions can be assembled into a complete task by dragging actions into an Automator workflow. You can run your completed workflows repeatedly, and even share them with others.+
If you scroll down that help page there are more explanations and examples. Is that simple enough for you?

Can someone explain what "gfx-surface-win32" is in about:memory?

I have an extension that causes "gfx-surface-win32" in about:memory to use excessive amounts of memory. I have tried to contact the developer of the extension without any success. I was going to try and see if I could fix it but I can figure out what "gfx-surface-win32" is. Can some please explain what this is?

It's a graphics memory usage. The only solution I see is to [[How do I upgrade my graphics drivers?|update your graphics drivers]] because it's not recommended to change an extension you are not going to maintain.
Note that in Firefox 15 (released on August 28), leaky extensions won't leak in Firefox. See [http://blog.kylehuey.com/post/21892343371/fixing-the-memory-leak Kyle Huey's blog post].

Bluetooth: can someone explain what you can do with it?

On the iPhone, is bluetooth only for pairing with a BT headset? no data transferring/receiving whatsoever with a powerbook? if so, has Apple gone mad?
thanks

It is easier to explain what it cannot do.
• it does not support OBEX file exchanges
• it does not support DUN connections via Bluetooth to connect your computer through it to the internet
• it does not synchronize contact, events or media files
Support for synchronization and file transfer it available only via USB through iTunes 7.3 or later.

Can someone explain what exactly is involved when it comes to Time Machine snapshots?

Can someone give me a brief and succint description and tutorial on how Time Machine snapshots work?
I use Time Machine (on Mac OS X obviously, ML 10.8.4) to backup my HD onto a separate external drive at least once a week.
However, like so many other users I'm online in a variety of places so most of the time (about 99%) my laptop isn't able to be connected to the external designated for HD backups and I've heard and read that the application Time Machine can use "snapshots" to create temporary backups to hold until you've connected your external the next time.
I wonder how that works?
How do I go about setting up this snapshot option so that my laptop can be regularly backing up my files without me having to be tethered to the external at the same time?
Won't that fill up my entire drive due to virtual memory or sleepimage or swapfiles or something along those lines?
And last but certainly not least, how can the user take use of this option but also prevent the TM snapshots from hogging every availabe byte of memory.

Local snapshots are made automatically in portable Macs with OS X Lion or Mountain Lion. Simply disconnect the Time Machine drive from your Mac and your Mac will start making local snapshots.

Won't that fill up my entire drive due to virtual memory or sleepimage or swapfiles or something along those lines?
These snapshots are stored in the hard drive and they consume a lot of space, as they are backing up the whole hard drive. A lot of users complain about the space they take, but in general, you don't have to worry. See below.

And last but certainly not least, how can the user take use of this option but also prevent the TM snapshots from hogging every availabe byte of memory.
Local snpashots will be deleted automatically when the hard drive is full, so don't worry about it. If you want to remove them, simply open System Preferences > Time Machine, and turn it off. Leave it for some minutes or hours, and turn on Time Machine again, but there's no reason to do that

Can someone explain whats happened here...
