Can the 27" iMAC be hooked up to my SKY (non HD) box so I can use it instead of a TV? If so how do I do it?
I would like to be able to view my Sky programs through the iMAC rather than have a seperate TV set up in the same room. I have no interest in recording just a straight substitute for a TV.
Thanks for your help.

I took away my backup disk with me so just took it from there excellent. I am back home at present working on my imac. When I go to use my macbook air on these projects (when away on boat) is it easiest to simply copy the Project and Events folders in total from my imac onto the other machine and do the same upon my return in reverse? I don't use icloud

Hello JF.
I don't think that extension is supported. I believe Firefox can only read .json and .html.

Since the latest update of 3.5.11, firefox opens links in a new window. it used to open links in a new tab. how can i fix that?

The setting in "Tools > Options > Tabs" only works for links that would open in a new window.<br />
That option allow you to divert such calls to a new tab.<br />
For other links you either have to use a middle click or a Ctrl + left click or use the context menu.

GSX, if you're referring to Apple's service by that name, is available only to employees of Apple-authorized service providers or self-servicing accounts. Unless you are employed by such an organization, you cannot access GSX. If you are employed by such an organization, they should set you up and give you the appropriate login information.
If you are interested in becoming a certified Apple hardware technician, you can find information here:
http://training.apple.com/certification/acmt
Please note, though, that certification does not in and of itself give you access to any of the Apple resouces for support organizations; diagnostic tools, parts ordering, etc. You again must be employed by an authorized Apple support provider before you can gain such access.
I have no idea what "knowlaged" might be.

HT4528 If iPhone bought at Verizon is it unlocked so I can use put an Italian SIM card in and how can I use the phone as a hotspot

I bought iPhone at Verizon-is it unlocked so I can put in an Italian SIM card in when I am traveling there. Can I use the iPhone as a hotspot?

No.
If a 4S, Verizon must unlock the GSM portion which then can be used with another carrier's SIM card outside of the US.
Being able to tether the iPhone is carrier dependent.

I needed to change my i tunes e male address but i used this email address to open a 2nd account. I need to cancel the 2nd account so I can use it to change my old account. How do I do this?

I needed to change my i tunes address but I used the new e male adress to open a new account that I dont want. how do I cancel this account so I can reuse this emal adress for my old account.

I'm afraid that once an address has been associated with an Apple ID you can't re-use it in any way. You will have to create another address (such as a free on from GMail or Yahoo for example).

No FW! Can use USB instead?

While Pro owners still have one last measly remaining FireWire port, MacBook owners are out of luck. In order to safely recover from failures, transfer files and the like, will Apple finally certify the USB port for use of the computer in Target Disk Mode?
I know, I know, you would need a special cable to plug one Mac to another, but at least you could place a clone of the system on an extenal USB HDD, and hopefully be able to boot from it if the need arose,

I'm actually getting sick of the whinging about this online. It's not that big a deal unless you have multiple Macs and need to sync them frequently. If you need to migrate from an old Mac to a new unibody MacBook, all you need to do is put your old Mac's hard drive into a cheapo external USB enclosure and use Migration Assistant to transfer your files.
I've been doing this for years. It's just about the same speed as firewire, and you can have Migration Assistant treat it as "another drive on this Mac" or "another Mac" -- It doesn't matter. It will work.
So the big adjustment you have to make is pulling your old Mac's hard drive out and putting it into an enclosure. Seriously... It's not brain surgery.
Yes, provided you have such a drive case available to you. If you don't and, say, you are upgrading from a G4 series of computers which use a different interface, then you are left with a USB case that may be somewhat of a waste to have. A Firewire cable is quite a bit cheaper than a USB case.
Now, that being said, I do see the value in firewire for people with older video equipment or firewire-only backup solutions. I see the value for people who rely on TDM to syn their multiple Macs every day. If you're that user, then you can grab the new White MacBook, or pick up a MacBook Pro. There are plenty of refurb MBPs available from Apple for close to the price of the unibody MacBook.
I think that you are maybe forgetting about those of us who would like the small sized and lighter weight of the current Aluminum MacBooks and want to use them with audio interfaces that are predominately Firewire. If you add these people to those who want the speed and dependability of firewire for back-ups to their existing hard disks, video editing with their current cameras and the situation that you mentioned where you need to synch multiple computers of various ages (G4, G5 and Intel based machines) this lack of firewire is a much bigger problem.
As a consumer-level laptop, most people whom the MacBook is aimed at won't need firewire. If you're prosumer, and need firewire, it exists in other options.
But those options are not available (readily) to me.

Is there any development plan for iCloud Mail so I can use it instead of Gmail at some point?

I would like to leave Google services in favour of Apple, as I feel that Apple is much more serious about their users, more mature and more reliable. I also feel that my data is safer with Apple than with Google.
So I have some questions:
Is there a plan for introducing business service of Mail or icloud in general, so I can create multiple accounts in our business domain?
Is there a plan do extend Mail capabilities so it supports multiple identities including retrieving and sending through external email addresses?
Thanks
Michal

Apple doesn't allow discussing new products here, it is prohibited in the terms of use.
I would suggest you look at the history of Apple's online services…
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MobileMe (The sidebar lists release/ closure dates).
In the 14 years since iTools started they have never offered the ability to use custom domains. They haven't really added any multiuser support in one account (not at any level suitable for a business).
Apple also closed down the MobileMe sites and galleries features, causing many thousands of sites to disappear. Apple didn't even offer users the ability to redirect to a new domain. Apple also drop services for older Mac OS's, you may find a member of staff is left out of Apple services because they need to use some older software or don't want to use the latest OS etc.
iCloud is just like Apple's other online services - targeted at home or new users. The integration is good, but only for people who fit into Apple's intended audience.
My advice – do not setup your business accounts with iCloud if you plan on avoiding the disruption caused by the whims of Apple.
If you don't want to use Google use another provider for email, calendars etc (or run your own Mac server if you have the know how).
In the 10 years since Gmail started it has been consistent as is the 'Gmail for my domain'. Google have also removed and changed services, but the core features are still there & work on many older OS's.

Can use EL instead of fmt:message ??

I am using a custom tag ( to generate tabs for UI)
but it doesn't support internationalization.
I substituted the fmt:message tag in "title" attribute of the custom tag for giving it the localized title
but it seems that the fmt tag can not be executed inside another jsp tag,
so i am wondering if there is any way to access localized message through EL so that i can substitute in title attribute of the custom tag

There are two possible approaches to the issue of your custom tag not supporting EL
1 - Make it support EL. If you have have a JSP2.0 container (Tomcat 5 and above) then all tags will work with EL. Otherwise you have to leverage the EL classes from JSTL.
2 - Follow the struts paradigm and pass the name of an attribute to retrieve from scope which will have the relative text in it.
ie
<fmt:message var="i18nMessage" key="someKeyInI18nBundle" />
<my:customTag titleName="i18nMessage" ...>and then in the custom tag
String title = pageContext.findAttribute(titleName);Hope this helps,

John, are you perhaps already on Lion? I am a late adapter, so still on 10.6.8
I am not sure, whether I am able to put here a screen shot to help you ...
NO its not working :-(
But I am sceptic, that this will work. (I never saw pictures on this forum ... )

I just upgraded my iPad to ios6. Now my Epson iPrint crashes all the time. I called Epson and they had no answer...said to use AirPrint instead. But AirPrint stinks because you cannot change printer settings. Anybody know how to make iPrint work on ios6?

Anybody know how to make Epson iPrint work on ios6? Epson told me to use AirPrint, which stinks because you cannot change printer settings.

Epson needs an update to their app to support ios6. I'm sure they will in time.
Try deleting it and re download it. If that doesn't work, it's what I said above. :(

Can use the same thread safe variable in the different processes?

Hello,
Can use the same thread safe variable in the different processes? my application has a log file used to record some event, the log file will be accessed by the different process, is there any synchronous method to access the log file with CVI ?
David

Limiting concurrent access to shared resources can be better obtained by using locks: once created, the lock can be get by one requester at a time by calling CmtGetLock, the other being blocked in the same call until the lock is free. If you do not want to lock a process you can use CmtTryToGtLock instead.
Don't forget to discard locks when you have finished using them or at program end.
Alternatively you can PostDeferredCall a unique function (executed in the main thread) to write the log passing the apprpriate data to it.
Proud to use LW/CVI from 3.1 on.
