Changing cursor apperiance..How?

I'm working on some school project and I have three frames. I need to change cursor apperiance while it's over those three internal frames. I know how to handle listeners, and all other stuff I need just I cann't find any way to setup cursor apperiance...I was looking in swing but nothing..or my docs are not good...

All descendents of Component inherit setCursor. Use it as follows:
component.setCursor(new Cursor(Cursor.WAIT_CURSOR));

How to change 'cursor'

Is there a way to change the 'cursor' so that it is always a 'hand' or something else that is easier to see - this is for one of the users that I support. They're looking for the cursor to always be this way, no matter what (ever, regardless). I have not been able to find this feature and other Adobe users I have talked to haven't found anything like it either.

Hi, showing some messages when moving over a button can be done by standard-functionality useing property "tooltip-text" for the button.
If you want your own bean start with overwriting the class oracle.forms.ui.VButton, use method with code similar to the following
protected void processMouseEvent(MouseEvent p0)
    if ((p0.getID()==MouseEvent.MOUSE_ENTERED) && this.isEnabled())
      // Add your code for changing cursor here
      super.processMouseEvent(p0);
    } else if ((p0.getID()==MouseEvent.MOUSE_EXITED) && this.isEnabled())
      // Add your code for changing cursor here
      super.processMouseEvent(p0);
    } else
      super.processMouseEvent(p0);
}hope this helps

How can I change cursor while it does something?

hi, all
following code dosen't change current cursor.
I want to change cursor to wait_cursor while it opens file,
but, it doesn't change cursor at all.
What's problem?
class aClass extends JFrame{
btOpen.addActionListener(new ActionListener(){
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e){
int returnVal = jfcFileDialog.showOpenDialog(SourceEditor.this);
if (returnVal == JFileChooser.APPROVE_OPTION) {
openedFile = jfcFileDialog.getSelectedFile();
setCursor( Cursor.getPredefinedCursor(Cursor.WAIT_CURSOR));
//read openedFile and return text
String fileContent=readSourceFile();
setCursor( Cursor.getPredefinedCursorCursor.DEFAULT_CURSOR));
thank you.

I finally figured it out. You have to set the cursor on the JFrame's GlassPane. The solution was alluded to in the Evaluation section of a couple of bug reports:
http://developer.java.sun.com/developer/bugParade/bugs/4357573.html
http://developer.java.sun.com/developer/bugParade/bugs/4320939.html
There is also some discussion about this in various Forum threads. (Search for topics using "+getGlassPane +setCursor".)
My corrected code follows. With this method, you don't even need to start up a secondary thread to get the cursor to change. I do, however, because I have other UI elements that I want to be updated (such as a sort indicator on my column headings.) I also reduce the priority of the sort thread a bit so my UI gets priority.
Note that I removed the code that tries to remember the original cursor, since, with all the asynchronous execution going on, the wait cursor could actually be the frame's current cursor when this gets executed. If you're not doing a sub-thread as I am, you don't have to worry about this. Also, I have extended JFrame to JFrameBase to handle threading issues and consolidate redundant code (among other things not pictured here). The JFrameBase class definition follows the example code.
Component lTopLevelComponent = JTableSortable.this.getTopLevelAncestor();
final JFrameBase lFrame;
if ( lTopLevelComponent instanceof JFrameBase )
    lFrame = (JFrameBase)lTopLevelComponent;
    lFrame.setFrameCursor( Cursor.getPredefinedCursor( Cursor.WAIT_CURSOR ) );
else
    lFrame = null;
Thread lSortThread = new Thread( "JTableSortable" ) {
    public void run()
        ((SortableTableModel)lModel).sortByColumn( lSortCol, lAscending );
        if ( lFrame != null )
            lFrame.setFrameCursor( Cursor.getPredefinedCursor( Cursor.DEFAULT_CURSOR ) );
lSortThread.setPriority( Math.max( Thread.MIN_PRIORITY, Thread.currentThread().getPriority() - 1 ) );
lSortThread.start();
public class JFrameBase extends JFrame {
public void setFrameCursor( final Cursor aCursor )
    SwingUtilities.invokeLater( new Runnable() {
        public void run()
            getGlassPane().setCursor( aCursor );
            getGlassPane().setVisible( true );

How to change cursor when need to open a new dialog?

Hi,
I try to change cursor to WAIT when client open a new dialog, which it tell user the program was running to ready display new dialog.
My code was like the following
scene.setCursor(Cursor.WAIT);
someclass.showMyDialog(); // The dialog was a new stage with StageStyle.UTILITY style
scene.setCursor(Cursor.DEFAULT);
But the cursor didn't be changed, I didn't know it why? Anybody know it? thank in advance!
I had search the google, and didn't find the perfect answer, most of they was like to use setCursor(Cursor.WAIT) mode.
the current ENV in my host was: windows 7 and Java
java version "1.7.0_13"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.7.0_13-b20)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 23.7-b01, mixed mode)

If you have a long running process ("long" means anything the user will notice), you need to run it in a thread other than the JavaFX Application Thread. In other words, you need to change the cursor to the wait cursor on the FX Application Thread, launch a user-defined thread for your long running process (connecting to the database), and once that thread is complete, show the dialog and change the cursor back on the FX Application Thread again. If you try to do everything on the FX Application Thread, you'll likely block that thread and prevent any changes from being visible to the user until the long process is complete (so you'll never see the wait cursor).
All that said, and as jsmith said, there are some bugs in JavaFX 2.2 with the appearance of the cursor. So on my system (Mac OS X 10.7.5) the "correct" behavior is only observed with JavaFX 8.
This is an example of doing things wrong. Here I don't see any change to the cursor, even on JavaFX 8:
import javafx.application.Application;
import javafx.event.ActionEvent;
import javafx.event.EventHandler;
import javafx.scene.Cursor;
import javafx.scene.Scene;
import javafx.scene.control.Button;
import javafx.scene.layout.BorderPane;
import javafx.stage.Stage;
public class WaitCursorDemo extends Application {
@Override
public void start(Stage primaryStage) {
    final BorderPane root = new BorderPane();
    final Scene scene = new Scene(root, 600, 400);
    Button button = new Button("Do something time-consuming");
    button.setOnAction(new EventHandler<ActionEvent>() {
      @Override
      public void handle(ActionEvent event) {
        System.out.println("Starting...");
        scene.setCursor(Cursor.WAIT);
        try {
          Thread.sleep(2000);
        } catch (InterruptedException exc) {
          exc.printStackTrace();
        scene.setCursor(Cursor.DEFAULT);
        System.out.println("Done");
    root.setBottom(button);
    primaryStage.setScene(scene);
    primaryStage.show();
public static void main(String[] args) {
    launch(args);
}This works on JavaFX 8: after pressing the button I see the wait cursor for two seconds, then it reverts to the default cursor.
import javafx.application.Application;
import javafx.concurrent.Task;
import javafx.concurrent.WorkerStateEvent;
import javafx.event.ActionEvent;
import javafx.event.EventHandler;
import javafx.scene.Cursor;
import javafx.scene.Scene;
import javafx.scene.control.Button;
import javafx.scene.layout.BorderPane;
import javafx.stage.Stage;
public class WaitCursorDemo extends Application {
@Override
public void start(Stage primaryStage) {
    final BorderPane root = new BorderPane();
    final Scene scene = new Scene(root, 600, 400);
    Button button = new Button("Do something time-consuming");
    button.setOnAction(new EventHandler<ActionEvent>() {
      @Override
      public void handle(ActionEvent event) {
        System.out.println("Starting...");
        scene.setCursor(Cursor.WAIT);
        Task<Void> task = new Task<Void>() {
          @Override
          protected Void call() throws Exception {
            try {
              Thread.sleep(2000);
            } catch (InterruptedException exc) {
              exc.printStackTrace();
            return null;
        task.setOnSucceeded(new EventHandler<WorkerStateEvent>() {
          @Override
          public void handle(WorkerStateEvent event) {
            scene.setCursor(Cursor.DEFAULT);
            System.out.println("Done");
            // Display your dialog now you have the data from the database...
        new Thread(task).start();
    root.setBottom(button);
    primaryStage.setScene(scene);
    primaryStage.show();
public static void main(String[] args) {
    launch(args);
}

I recently changed my apple ID but the old on is still on my iCloud account. The old address is dimmed on iCloud on my iPad so I can't change it. How do I change to the new address? I don't want to delete the account as I don't want to lose the pictures

To change it, you have delete the existing account. However you can avoid losing any pictures in the process. To avoid losing photo stream photos, save them to your camera roll (if not already there) before deleting the account. To do this, open your my photo stream album, tap Edit, tap the photos, tap Share, then tap Save to Camera Roll. (Camera roll photos are not effected by deleting the account.)
Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, then sign back in with the new ID. This deletes the account and your iCloud data from your device, but not from iCloud. Provided you are signing back into the same account, your iCloud data will reappear on your device when you sign back in.

Hi ccharat,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities! It sounds like you did a good job editing your Apple ID and primary email address, but you didn’t sign out of iCloud on your iOS device before hand. What you may need to do in this situation is go back to the Apple ID website and edit your Apple ID and primary email address back to the email address that is signed in with iCloud (there is no need to verify the account after editing it back to the old account, just changing it back is enough). Once your Apple ID is back to the original account, delete the iCloud account from the iOS device and be sure to keep all info on the device when prompted. After you delete the iCloud account, go back to the website and edit your Apple ID and primary email address back to the new address. Once it is back to the account you would like, you can sign into the iCloud on the iOS device with that new account and merge all of the data when prompted. Please use the following article as a reference.
iOS 7: If you're asked for the password to your previous Apple ID when signing out of iCloud
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts5223
Change your Apple ID temporarily
If signing out and back in to iMessage or FaceTime didn't help, try these steps:
Change your Apple ID to the Apple ID you used previously. You shouldn't need to verify the email address.
Go to Settings > iCloud. Complete these steps only if the Find My [Device] setting is turned on:
Scroll down and tap Delete Account, then tap Delete to confirm.
Tap “Keep on My [Device]” or “Delete from My [Device].” In either case, your data remains in iCloud and will be updated on your device when you sign in to iCloud again.
Enter the password for your previous Apple ID.
Change your Apple ID to the new email address that you want to use. You'll need to verify the email address.
Return to Settings > iCloud and sign in with your new Apple ID.
I hope this helps,
-Joe

I entered the incorrect password for my home wifi network and now I can't change it. How do I clear out the wrong password so that I can enter a correct one?

I entered the incorrect password for my home wifi network, and now I can't change it. How do I clear out the wrong password so that I can enter a correct one?

Settings > wi-fi then tap on the little blue arrow next to the network you want to change. You have to tap on the blue arrow and not on the name.
Now at the top tap on "forget this network".
After that, the iPhone will think your home network is a new network and will ask you for the password to connect.

Apple sends emails to me in Dutch to one of my email addresses. My language is English. An Apple employee told me my initiating profile shows Dutch. He did not know how to change it. How do I?
(Note: When I bought my first Apple product, I used a Shaw email address. This year I changed my primary email address to a gmail one. The gmail one is apparently on my Apple profile. Nonetheless, the Dutch messages go to my Shaw email address.)
Thanks!

Hi, ruthrr.
This sounds like your language preference is set to Dutch on your Apple ID. I would go to My Apple ID, Manage Your Apple ID and change the language and contact preferences.
Cheers,

I have a rather old iMac 20" (mid 2007) and I want to upgrade the Hard drive. How do I change it? How do I transfer all my applications? May I just copy the old hd into the new one? Thanks.

I have a rather old iMac 20" (mid 2007) and I want to upgrade the Hard drive. How do I change it? How do I transfer all my applications? May I just copy the old hd into the new one? Thanks.

There are many online tutorials on how to change out the HD on a mid 2007 iMac. One of the originals is from 2007 and is Upgrade your iMac 20" or iMac 24" aluminum (mid 2007) to 1TB Hard Drive and 4 GB RAM - DIY Guide. As far as migrating your system Apple helps out with that in Setup Assistant which automatically starts when you turn on a new Mac for the first time. After you have installed the new HD you will have to format the new HD to Mac OS Extended (Journaled) and then you will have to install OS X. The first time you turn it on Setup Assistant will start. Follow the directions and you will be fine. In order to restore your information you will need to backup what is on the current internal HD first. I'd recommend using Time Machine (Assuming you are using Leopard or later) AND also creating a bootable clone using either SuperDuper or Carbon Copy Cloner.
Please complete your profile so at the very least we know what version of OS X your machine has installed.
