Can this be done a better way?

I have text in three columns in a JTextArea with a Titledborder. The Titledborder is trying to double as column headings as well, not very attractive.
Anyone have any suggestions on how to improver the gui?
Below is a link of what the gui looks like.
Any feedback would be appreciated.

Use a JTable instead. It solves all your column problems.

I want to have 2 seperate libraries with content in different locations, can this be done?

Hi there, I have 2 uses for itunes, one is for my mobile DJ business and for this I store all of my music on a 2TB external firewire 800 HDD I use Traktor Pro to mix, but find itunes very good for creating playlists. I would however like to be able to store seperate content on my internal drive in a different library for personal use as a great deal of the stuff in my DJ collection I personally have no time for, and do not want the inconvenience of needing to connect my external HDD to be able to listen to my own collection. I have a SSD installed and have tried depressing the CMD button during startup of the application although no option for creating a new library presents its self, it may be that the start up is too quick for me to be able out this. Any ideas guys? Many thanks.

Can this be done? If so, how?
there may be other (better) ways out there but all i can think of is this:
1) make one iTunes library the main one and "consolidate" files that aren't in it, but in the other computer's libraries, to it.
you can use home sharing for this but home sharing won't copy ratings, playcounts, and original "date added". a 3rd party tool such as PowerTunes would be very useful if those details are important to you.
2) once the "main" library is created, copy the entire iTunes folder (not just the iTunes music or media folder) to the media server, launch iTunes while holding the option(⌥) key, click on choose library when prompted, and select the iTunes folder you copied to the new location.
3) repeat with the other Macs.
with a setup such as this, be aware that only one iTunes at a time can access the library. if your intention is to enable multiple machines to access the library simultaneously, you will probably have look into a NAS with a built-in iTunes server.

Can this be done with css rollovers?

Hi,
I'm using Dreamweaver CS4 on a Windows PC. I understand the basics of css rollovers where you change the background image position up or down but the text used will still end up being a common font that will suit every pc. What I'd like to do is use an uncommon font in my navigation bar. I made an image in photoshop that had two versions of a word like home for example one on top of the other like you would for a css rollover but once I created a link I had the link color border around the image, so it didn't work. Here is a link to a website that is similar to what I'm trying to do http://www.inksmithtattoo.com/. Look at the navigation, can this be done using css rollovers? If not how do you think it was done? Is there a way to use uncommon fonts in a navigation bar? I even did some research on using Dreamweavers hotspot function but found that there were issues in using it for navigation. I'm getting pretty familar with Dreamweaver but I'm not that good at coding so if anyone does have any ideas please include some keywords that I can google and read more about what your trying to say, links to the info would be even better but I realize that if your as busy as I am you can't take that kind of time.
Any ideas or help will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you to all, dluthier

That site is using images only. It is not a text based link:
here is the css they are using:
#navAbout a {
-moz-background-clip:border;
-moz-background-inline-policy:continuous;
-moz-background-origin:padding;
background:transparent url(../_img/navAbout-Home.gif) no-repeat scroll 0 0;
left:473px;
top:318px;
As you can see it is an image only. See the attachment with this post. Also since it is a background image it won't show up if you right click on the so seemed text
Please install firebug or webdeveloper plugin if on Firefox and you will be able to inspect the elements and know what exactly they are.
Hope it helps

Vinay

I want to shoot a movie on my iPhone and edit it on my iPad using the iMovie app. How can this be done via iTunes on my computer?

I want to shoot a movie on my iPhone and edit it on my iPad using the iMovie app. How can this be done via iTunes on my computer?

You can't drag video into the filesharing pane of iTunes, you can only transfer projects.
Videos need to come in via the photos tab of iTunes.
The easiest way to get videos from the iPhone to the iPad is via the project export import.
Projects can be exported from the iPhone, then imported to the iPad like this:
iPhone Send a project or trailer to iTunes
If the marquee screen isn’t showing, tap the My Projects button .
Scroll to center the project or trailer you want to share.
Tap the Share button at the bottom of the screen, and then tap iTunes; tap OK when iMovie indicates that export is complete.
Connect your device to your computer, and then open iTunes on your computer.After a moment, your device appears in iTunes, below Devices on the left.
Select the device, and then click Apps at the top of the iTunes window.
Select iMovie in the Apps list below File Sharing. (You may need to scroll to see it.)
In the iMovie Documents pane, select the file you just shared, and then click the “Save to” button; save the file to your computer in a place where you can find it easily.You can also save the file by dragging it to the desired location on your computer.
Disconnect the device from your computer.
iPad Import a project or trailer from iTunes
Connect your device to your computer, and open iTunes on your computer.After a moment, your device appears in iTunes, below Devices on the left.
Select the device, and click Apps at the top of the iTunes window.
Select iMovie in the Apps list below File Sharing. (You may need to scroll to see it.)
Click Add below the iMovie Documents pane; in the window that appears, navigate to the file you want to add.
Select the file, and then click Open to copy the file to your device.The file appears in the iMovie Documents pane when copying is complete.
Open iMovie on your device; if the marquee screen isn’t showing, tap the My Projects button in the upper-left corner above the viewer.
Tap the Import button at the bottom of the screen, and then tap the name of the project you want to import.When the import is complete, the project opens and can be edited like any other project.

UCCX 9.0-Customer wants only ziptone in headset for new call to agent, no ringing on Phone. Can this be done?

UCCX 9.0- My customer wants only ziptone in headset for new call to agent, no ringing on Phone.
Can this be done? I can't seem to find a way to do this natively.

Yes, I looked into that option. They don't want that because some agents have been known to walk away from their desk without going not ready.
Thanks for the quick response!

Can this be done? Emailing a completed form without emailing.

When using a standard html form, a user can fill in the required fields, press post, and abracadabra, the results of the form are emailed to the specified account and the user is redirected to a page that says your form has been submitted.
Can this be done using a .pdf? The email button is simply retarded. Why do users have to go through the hassle of having their email client opened just to submit the form they just completed? There probably isn't any other way, but would be nice if there was.
Is it possible to create a submit button that will automatically email the completed .pdf form to a pre-specified email address and then redirect the user to a "thank you" page? I don't want to annoy my customers by forcing them to email me the form. I just want it sent when they click "submit."
Is this even possible? If so, is it relatively easy?
Any help is greatly appreciated!

>Can this be done using a .pdf?
Sure. The principle is exactly the same: you submit data to a script
which runs on a web server. You are limited only by what the
programmer has made the script do. Don't be under any impression that
it is "magic": if you have a web form which submits and then you get
an e-mail it's because there is a script on a web server that a web
programmer wrote to make it happen.
> The email button is simply retarded.
I prefer to think of it as a handy tool for testing, but nothing
anyone would use for the real solution.
>Why do users have to go through the hassle of having their email client ...
They don't. Did you know that you can "submit" an HTML form to e-mail?
But nobody does, because it just isn't a good way of working. Everyone
expects an HTML form to submit to a web script, but for some reason
hopes they can use direct e-mail of PDF forms.

Demo & Video - Can this be done?

My client would like to have a captivate demo of their
software on the right side of the screen, while on the left there
is video of a manager explaining the demo.
It would look like this:
link
Can this be done with just Captivate? From what I can tell
your recording has to be the full size of your project. If not,
anyone know what tools could be used to do this? I assume Flash,
but would imagine the difficulty would be getting the demo and the
video to be in sync.
Any suggestions/thoughts are very appreciated.
Edit: I think I should have put this post in General. Anyone
know how to have it moved? I don't want to create multiple posts of
the same topic.
Thanks!

Welcome to our community, Choksi
I'm pretty sure you can do this with Captivate, some
imagination and another little Adobe product called Visual
Communicator.
Click here
for the Visual Communicator site)
Basically, you would record the demonstration at the smaller
size. Then you would create a larger Captivate presentation that
would hold the whole thing. You would then have the basic
demonstration occurring in the left side of the screen as your
image shows. Now for the fun part. You would use Visual
Communicator to record many smaller video segments that describe
what is occurring over on the left side of the screen. Once
recorded, you would produce them as .FLV files and insert them onto
the Captivate slides as needed.
I suppose you may be able to also work the other way around.
Create the Captivate projects and insert them into Visual
Communicator. Not sure if it supports that quite yet, but may be
interesting.
Hopefully that helps... Rick

I need to block someone from emailing me, its is also important that they receive an undelivered message when they attempt to email me. Can this be done?

I need to block someone from emailing me, it is important that they receive an undelivered message when they attempt to email me. Can this be done? I do not mind deleting the whole account and starting again, but i have not found a way as of yet.

You can go to the Mail page at http://icloud.com , click on the cogwheel icon at top right, choose 'Rules' and set up a rule that moves all messages from this person to the Trash. However there's no way of producing an 'undelivered' message.
As to deleting the account, this isn't possible; you can abandon using it and start another. If you do this, messages to it will pile up until the storage limit is filled, at which point they will be bounced with an 'Account over limit' message. Alternatively you could set up a 'Vacation message' in the Preferences which would inform anyone sending to that address that it was no longer in use.

1 repository serving 2 OBIEE servers - can this be done?

Hi Gurus.
I have a question that I though might be better answered in this forum.
Is it possible for us to configure 1 repository and have 2 OBIEE / Web Logic servers running from it?
We are thinking of having one OBIEE server for external and the other for internal layers.
Can this be done? With each running off / out of the same repository?
I did find this http://www.rittmanmead.com/2010/07/obiee-11gr1-scaleout-clustering-and-high-availability/
Any comments?
Thanks in advance,

I have 220 photos on my camera. I want to create 6 different folders for a download. Can this be done? I need instructions on how to do this.

I have 220 photos on my camera to be downloaded to Lightroom. I want to organize them in 6 different folders. Can this be done? I need instructions to do this.

You cannot direct a single Copy Import operation from your card into multiple folders, but you can either import multiple times, selecting different photos each time from the Import grid, and specifying a different destination, or you can import everything into one folder, then use drag-and-drop in LR with different selections of photos into various folders you create within LR’s Library module folder panel. As long as you do the folder creating and photo moving within LR then LR will know where the photos have been moved to.
What I do is move the photos into multiple folders on the card, itself, outside of LR, using Explorer’s thumbnail previews to guide me, then drag-and-drop those folders to their final destination on my hard drive still outside of LR, then do an Add Import, by dragging and dropping those folders onto LR Library’s central area, so that’s another way.

I I am trying to create a collage with 4-6 photo so I can print them on one sheet. Can this be done in IPHOTO?

I am trying to create a collage with 4-6 photo so I can print them on one sheet. Can this be done in IPHOTO?

Here are 3 options for future reference:
1. With the setup you've described, apply a Match Move behavior to the text and make the rectangle the source. Change the Transform parameter to Mimic source. This way you can still adjust the text postion as needed, but the rectangle will drive the animation.
2. Use a group to do the animation. Put both your rectangle and text in the same group and animate the group's postion.
3. Use the Link behavior.
Each of these has it's advantages depending on what you need.

I am trying to sort my documents into folders and name each document. Can this be done

I am new to Pages. I want to put different letters (documents) into a folder - is it possible to name each document within a folder?
Also, I have blank headed paper that I then pull in to use for letters but I then want to retain the blank headed paper afterwards. Is there any way of doing that as it appears that once I have used the headed paper for a letter, it gets filed as the new letter and I lose the blank headed paper.

can this be done
Of course. That's standard behavior.

IDVD on ext.HD. can this be done?

I have my iMovie files on an ext. hard drive. When I launch iDVD (which resided on my iBook hard drive) it doesn't allow me to make the DVD. When I moved the iMovie files to my iBook, iDVD worked fine. However, I want the ext. hard drive to process the DVD. Can this be done. Can any assist with the "how"?
Merry Christmas and thanks!

May I assume you are launching iDVD from inside of iMovie ? I suspect so 'cause when you do this, the system wants to put the iDVD project in your home directory.
The only way around this I know of is to not do it this way. Instead, quit iMovie, launch iDVD and create a new project on your external drive. The drag the reference movie from the iMovie project onto the iDVD window. You are now at the same point as if you launched iDVD from inside iMovie.
If these terms are not familiar to you, just holler and I will get detailed about it.
Good luck.

Syncing between iPhoto on your iPhone and iPhoto on your Mac is one-way. You can sync selected albums, events, faces, places albums from your Mac to iPhoto on your iPhone using iTunes. This will not delete any albums you created on your iPhone, just add new albums. But albums you create on your iPhone cannot be synced to your Mac.
See this page on how to transfer photos from iPhoto on your iPhone to your Mac:

Need to upgrade to version 11.1. can this be done remotely or do I have to tac my imac to the apple store?

Need to upgrade my Mac OS 10.5.8 to 11.1 or higher. I cannot access icloud, iphone updates, flashplayer, can't watch movies, or use itunes (I'm sure there are other options I can't access but haven't found them all) unless I upgrade. Can this be done remotely or do I have to take my PC to an apple dealer?

Version 11.1 of what? There is no version of OS X with that number so presumably you are referring to iTunes, which requires an Intel Mac running Snow Leopard or better:
Start by checking if you can run Snow Leopard:
Requirements for OS X 10.6 'Snow Leopard'
http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
The OS 10.6 Snow Leopard install DVD is available for $19.99 from the Apple Store:
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
and in the UK:
http://store.apple.com/uk/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
but nobody knows for how long it will be available.
When you have installed it, run Software Update to download and install the latest updates for Snow Leopard to bring it up to 10.6.8, or download the combo update from here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1399
Check via Software Update whether further updates are required.
You should now see the App Store icon in iTunes, and you now need to set up your account:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4479
To use iCloud you have to upgrade at least to Lion, but some functions are only available in Mountain Lion:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4759
You can also purchase the code to use to download Lion (Lion requires an Intel-based Mac with a Core 2 Duo, i3, i5, i7 or Xeon processor and 2GB of RAM, running the latest version of Snow Leopard), or you can purchase Mountain Lion from the App Store - if you can run that:
