Can't use my dashboard translator?

When i try to use my translator, I get an error message and it won't translate the phrase into another language. Can anyone help?

Are you getting this result?
For reasons unknown to me this has been discontinued. I have down loaded 'Fox Lingo' which seems to work fairly well (I generally use Firefox browser).
Ciao.

can I use my translator app when I travel to France?

I don't see how an App could care what SIM card you have in your phone. The SIM is used to connect to the cellular network for voice and data. If you have an unlocked phone, you can use whatever SIM you want from a compatible carrier. If your phone is not unlocked, then make whatever arrangements you need to for international roaming service from your current carrier. Be aware that international roaming can be very expensive.

Can we use Evaluate Function in Dashboard Prompt

Hi
Can anybody tell me
Can we use Evaluate Function in Dashboard Prompt.
If yes...How
Thanks in Adv

Yes ! You Can!
while creating the dashboard prompt, under "Show" pick SQL results and you write the SQL statement and include the EVALUATE function.
I have several such examples. Most of of dashboard pages are parameter driven.
1. 1st paratmeter - users specify the dates
2. 2nd parameter - constrains the results for the period specified in 1st paramter and my SQL for 2nd paramter looks like this -
SELECT table1.column1
FROM table, datedim1, table1,table2
WHERE datedim1.date BETWEEN EVALUATE( 'TO_DATE(%1,%2)','@{presentation variable1}','dd/mm/yyyy') AND EVALUATE('TO_DATE(%1,%2)', '@{presentation variable 2}','dd/mm/yyyy')

Thanks

Hi ILya Cyclone,
Thanks alotfor the reply. Can you tell me where should i include this in the jspx page.
Step 1)
I have the js file as js/ifl_messages_US.js and i created a resource file as you mentioned: JS_FILE_PATH=js/ifl_messages_US.js
Step 2)
Then added the entry in faces-config.xml for the resource file as follow:
<resource-bundle>
<base-name>resource_en.properties</base-name>
<var>resource</var>
</resource-bundle>
<locale-config>
<supported-locale>en</supported-locale>
</locale-config>
Step 3) This is my jspx page. In which a table is dynamically created on page load. Can you help me where should i enter the "#{resource.JS_FILE_PATH}"

Can't use dashboard. It launches my browser. Very strange.

Whenever I open Dashboard it starts up and after about a 1 second pause, it launches my browser. I can't use it or the widgets at all as I'm back in the desktop in my browser after 1 second. If I keep hitting F12 it will send me back to the desktop, opening a new browser window, as fast as I can hit it. It is the strangest thing I've ever seen and I wonder if it is something my daughter did when I wasn't looking.

Hi, Tron.
1. Hot Corners you define for Dashboard or Exposé are saved in your Dock Preferences, i.e. the file com.apple.dock.plist in your Home > Library > Preferences folder.
Note:You will need to reconfigure your Dock after performing this procedure as it will reset the Dock to its default configuration. If you want a record your Dock setup before undertaking this procedure, take a screen shot of your Dock.
1.1. Trash the Dock preferences: com.apple.dock.plist in your Home > Library > Preferences folder. This file contains the settings for your Dock and any Hot Corners you defined for Dashboard or Exposé.
1.2. If you altered the keyboard shortcuts for Dashboard or Exposé in System Preferences > Dashboard & Exposé, the changes are saved in the com.apple.symbolichotkeys.plist file in your Home > Library > Preferences folder. Trash that file as well.
1.3. After trashing these files, either log out, then log in, to your account or restart your Mac.
1.4. Empty the Trash.
1.5. Reconfigure your Dock and any customization you performed in System Preferences > Dashboard & Exposé for hot corners and keyboard shortcuts.
Note: If you are running any Dock "hacks" or "add ons" you might want to disable or delete these as these can contribute to Dock problems.2. Given the other issues you described As a general check, run the Procedure specified in my "Resolving Disk, Permission, and Cache Corruption" FAQ. Perform the steps therein in the order specified.
Good luck!

How can I delete the page in dashboard if I it will not stay open? I can't use anything in dashboard becasue it keeps closing and opening the login page from the internet. I have tried logging in to the site that the page came from but that doesn't work/help.

How can I fix the sound cutting out when I use the dashboard?

When I use the dashboard feature to look at the calendar etc. the sound on my computer cuts out. It is not on mute, it shows as high volume but when I use the volume buttons to turn it up, they make no noise and if I am trying to listen to music, no noise comes out the computer. I have to restart the computer ever time this happens before the sound comes back.
Any ideas what the problem might be??

I convert old vynal records to c d but i have problem with the sound setting

Can we use Evaluate function in Prompt

Hi all
Can we use Evaluate Function in Dashboard Prompt?
I need some exposure on how to use it.
I am working on a HRMS-OLTP Source where I need to work with Oracle Functions from OBIEE.
IF somebody can tell me that, It will be a favour for me....
ThanQ
Anand V

Hi All,
Here's an example of how to use evaluate. This use calls the Oracle TO_DATE function: EVALUATE('TO_DATE(%1,%2)' as DATE, '03/03/2009', 'MM/DD/YYYY')
Here's how it works: EVALUATE( '<FUNC>' AS <DATATYPE>, VALUE1,VALUE2,etc)
FUNC) Is the syntax for the function you are calling. Any parameters have to be replaced by %<number>, where number refers to the order in which you specify your parameters.
DATATYPE) The datatype that the function will evaluate to. In this case, DATE.
VALUE1) The latter part of the formula is a comma separated list of all the parameters used in the function. In this case, it's the date I want to cast
VALUE2) This is the second parameter. You need as many as you referenced in your function. In this case, it's the date format.
Good luck and if you found this post useful, please award points!
Best regards,
-Joe

Issues with Using Data Dashboard and Using Web Service

After running a system for many months it has suddenly decided to not work at all. I am using Data Dashboard to read variables on a host. I'll outline the system here to get a baseline:
I'm running LV 2012 SP1 f5.
I collect data from one Ethernet port and interfact it to another Ethernet port to form a proxy.
I use a fixed IP address from my DSL along with port forwarding/port triggering in my router for data observation and control.
So, what have I done so far?
1. Repaired my original LV 2012 SP1 and tested system.
2. Upgraded to LV 2012 SP1 f5 and tested system.
3. Ran service.msc and checked all the NI services that should be operational. Started and stopped several of them and rebooted computer.
4. Deployed all my SVs (multiple times)
5. Disconnected second Ethernet interface becasue sometimes the variables would deploy to this IP address.
6. Turned off my wireless because sometimes the variables would deploy to this IP address.
7. Checked "Web Server Configuration" "Application Web Server" for correct port number.
8. Checked "Web Services Management" and under "Deployed Web Services" there is one category: SV is marked as running. NOTE!! WebService is NOT listed and this could be a problem
I can use the following to retrieve data&colon; localhost:<port number>/sv/variable. But when I substitute my DSL IP number, I can no longer get any data.
So, what am I missing?
Thanks,
Paul.

Siana,
Thanks for your response.
I haven't touched the NI code in months. It is running on an XP laptop and I have the Windows updates turned off. McAfee is running on it and of course that updates regularily. This laptop is a dedicated machine that I only use for this function, nothing else. I haven't added or subtracted any programs for many months.
There have been no changes to the DSL from me. AT&T is constantly trying to get us to upgrade to U-Verse but we have resisted. All DSL modem and router hardware is the same.
Confusing, huh?

How can I use my Html/CSS Navigation bar to control an Edge Stage?

I have an HTML/CSS navigation bar set up in my EDGE created page. The Navbar is not created in edge. I would like to use these buttons to control the stage.
Inside the stage the main timeline has labels and stop actions every 1.5 secs to create a horizontally sliding site.
The labels are as follows: home, work, blog, profile, and contact. I can easily use a symbol created inside edge for example:
sym.play("home");
and animate a 6000px width symbol across my 1000px stage in 1000px increments.
I do not want to use a symbol inside of edge to do this because I cannot create the effect that the html/css navbar has on mouseover inside of edge.
So I am interested in knowing if I can use this bar to control my main timeline so I don't have to sacrifice design for functionality.
currently the link list is setup with the standard hyperlink. What code would I use to play the stage on click of the html navbar?
Many thanks to anyone who can help with this!
Here is the code for the navbar:

I've come across this from the Edge API:
Edge.getComposition(compId)
Anyone having trouble with this same issue should try this:
var targetComp = AdobeEdge.getComposition('TARGETCOMPID');
 targetComp.getStage().play();
in their trigger or event handler.

Can I run the currency translation for multiple years at the same time?

Dear Friends,
I set up currency translation on our BPC NW 7.0 system and it is working fine ONLY if I run it for any one year at a time. But if I select multiple years in the data package (FX Restatment) selection it only calculates for the first year in that selection.
say if I run the data package for years: 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, it only performs currency translation for the year 2009.
Can I run the currency translation for multiple years at the same time ?
Note: The year is determined from the YEAR property of the "Time" dimension
appreciate any inputs,
thanks

You can run currency translation for multiple years.
I think the problem it is actually related to how you are sending the parameter to currency translation script.
Just review the script logic log and you will see with what parameters was called currency translation FXTrans.
My expectation is that actually the script is called just with first year and that's the problem.
Log of script logic you can find it into:

[2]. after I run it, LocationTest will popup and a red ball in a panel will dsiplay, after I change red ball's position, I hope to persist it to xml, then when I read it back, I hope to get same picture, ie, red ball stiil in old position, How to do that??
Thanks a lot!!

Positive feedback? Then please take this in a positive way: if you want to work on persisting Java objects into XML, then GUI programming is irrelevant to that goal. The 1,000 lines of code you posted there appeared to me to have a whole lot of GUI code in it. You should produce a smaller (much smaller) example of what you want to do. Calling the working code from your GUI program should come later.

What are the uses of Dashboard

what is the uses of dashboard for mac mini?
where i can find dashboard widgets?
can i put widgets on my desktop?
thanks a lot!

You can download and install Dashbord widgets here > Apple - Downloads - Dashboard
No... widgets cannot be used directly on the Desktop.
Just click the Dashboard icon in your Dock to access installed widgets.

What Floppy Drive can I use with Mountain Lion to read and write floppy which can be read by SE30 with 7.1

I want to File Exchange between an iMac with 10.8.4 and a SE30 with 7.1.
All I want to do is install some software, such as Word 5.1 and a Chess game and some Fonts.
I have an external USB Floppy Drive but my iMac can only write to it IF I format as FAT, if I format it with the SE30 it can only be read and not written onto by the iMac.
Is there a way I can actually format/read/write Macintosh extended (HFS+) with Mountain Lion?
The external USB Floppy is a generic black one I bought from Amazon last week.
Someone else said I should get a Macally USB Floppy Drive and that reads/writes HFS+ etc with 10.8 no problem.
Is this because the Macally was released along with the Bondi Blue iMac?
I have tried using Apple Exchange on my SE30 - recorded some files onto the FAT formatted Floppy, and read it using Apple Exchange, but when 'translating' the Files transferred over as generic files which were no longer Macintosh programs or Files (eg Word 5.1 application or extensions/ Font suitcases etc) and could not be read.
Is there a way round this?
Or is there any way I can mount/read/write from the generic USB Floppy DRIVE with Sheepshaver (with 7.5.3)?
Any help or advice would be most appreciated.

>surely there must be some Terminal command or workaround for 10.8 to be able to Format in HFS?
Using dd to write an existing HFS disk image to a floppy may still work (but formatting/writing HFS from the operating system does not). You may want to compare this with the technique described in the article below. Obviously, this is only of interest if one wants to try creating floppies from certain (Disk Copy 4.2-style) downloaded 1.44 MB disk images.

>If I got hold of an old iBook or Powerbook G4 (my sister has one) could I plug the USB Floppy drive I have into one of these and copy files over this way?
At least according to the following Wikipedia article, writing HFS has not been supported since Mac OS X 10.6. This should mean that your idea with the USB floppy drive connected to one of the older computers mentioned could work. BTW, I do not think that the USB floppy drive type/make/model is of importance in this very context.
Another idea could possibly be to use an even older intermediate computer for other file transfer methods (without a floppy).
A PowerBook 520/520c/540/540c could run Mac OS 8.1, if at all necessary. It has built-in Ethernet (an external AAUI to RJ-45 transceiver is used), which would allow TCP/IP connections over a network. A LocalTalk connection to the SE/30 can be established via a plain Macintosh MiniDIN-8M to MiniDIN-8M printer cable. With the correct SCSI cable/adapter, one could also use the PowerBook as an external hard disk for the SE/30 in SCSI disk mode.
A PowerBook 5300 can run Mac OS 8.1 or higher, if necessary. It does not have built-in Ethernet, but a PC Card (PCMCIA) network card can be used. Furthermore, with an inexpensive PC Card adapter for CompactFlash and a CompactFlash memory card, the computer would have a simple removable "hard disk". The CF card (in Mac or PC format) can be read by a modern computer (a USB reader may be needed), making it ideal for file transfers. LocalTalk can be used here too, and so can SCSI disk mode (HD target mode).
