Colour distortion when running Keynote through data projector

I regularly hook my MacBook up to a data projector, using (I think) a DVI to VGA connector, without any problems; have recently found some problems with colour distortion, though, to the point of everything on the data projector display appearing in shades of blue. Running the attached PC through the data projector, everything was absolutely fine, so it seems to be a problem with my MacBook display settings? Any suggestions for a quick fix?
Thanks!

When you bring up the monitors control panel, does it show on BOTH screens (internal and projector)? It should, and if you're not mirroring, ONLY change it on the projector. Make sure it matches the default for the projector. There no reason it shouldn't work, but that's the first place to check.

Why does my iMac temperature go up when running games through Windows using BootCamp?

Hey guys,
These are my current specs: iMac 27 inch, intel i7 quad core 3.5 ghz, 16gb ram and 1tb sata hardrive with nvidia gtx 780m.
Ive installed windows on my mac and have discovered that when running games the temperature is much higher. For the same game on Windows i've had my CPU run at 80-81 C on roughly all cores and my GPU temp went up to 85 C. On mavericks same game runs at temps of 58 C for CPU and 71 C for GPU. However on mavericks the frames rates are lower even when running same settings as on windows.
I tend to think that mavericks is somehow limiting my hardware in order to keep the temperature down whereas on windows on my mac I can really feel the kick of the system yet the temperature goes really high. Is there any way to sort this out?

gpu driver optimising is much more used in windows it give better fps but less stability and as you notice more heat and more noise as the fans work harder
lower the eye candy and resolution is a cure

Distortion when connecting iBook to Sony Projector

I have an iBook G4, 1Ghz, 10.4.11, 1.25GB RAM, Keynote '08
When I connect the iBook to any TV using composite, S-video, or 15-pin VGA I get a crystal clear picture. But when I use it at work with a Sony VPL-CX86 projector the picture is distorted on the screen. There is a slight distortion (scratch marks) using the 15-pin connection, and a terrible distortion (flowing lines of "noise") using composite and s-video.
I cant imagine that there is something wrong with the iBook since it works fine when connected to a TV, but Im wondering if there is? Or is there something I can do with the projector to fix the picture?
Thanks for any input!

OK... problem solved! But new questions arise.
I found that when my iBook was plugged in to the AC adapter, it created "noise" on the projector picture. But when I connect the iBook to the projector and use battery power, the picture is crystal clear. Weird, but now I know that something in the power supply causes the picture to distort... Now I just charge up the iBook before I need to use it.

Converted access app to apex when run get no data found; table does have da

COnverfted MS Access app to apex. WHen I run the appliation I get no data found.
However the table does have data. HOw do I see what is actually running?
The pre-converted form saids its based on a query. The form and the query shows up as valid. I then converted the form. When I run it I get no data found. If I take the query that the form is based on and run in sqlplus I get data.
Another confusing thing is when I look at the page for the converted form, there is nothing in the source area for the region where the converted query results should be.
Did the conversion not work? How can I tell what is the source? Where should the results from the query be located?

Its a standard SQL query:
SELECT xtbl_MSDS_to_CAS.msds_id,
xtbl_MSDS_to_CAS.cas,
xtbl_MSDS_to_CAS.alias,
xtbl_MSDS_to_CAS.amount,
xtbl_MSDS_to_CAS.veh_prod,
xtbl_MSDS_to_CAS.compliance
FROM xtbl_MSDS_to_CAS
The name of the above query lets say for example purposes is MYQUERY.
After looking at the page def I see that the way the conversion tool worked is that in the page definition it has this in the Processes Section:
After Header:
Fetch Row from MYQUERY.
Then it says automated Row fetch.
I compared this to another form that was converted thru the migration APex tool as well and on that form that does work I found that:
The query(form) was converted and placed in a region and the source has the query. THat is, it was not in the process section but in the region: source section.
So why does the conversion tool decide to convert one and populate as a region source and the other as a process in the page definition?
THis is all very confusing.
Hope you were able to follow me.

Getting SQL*Net more data from client waits when running a query through web based interface

Hi, you all,
We are having this weird behavior when running query through web based interface, we get a lot of "SQL*Net more data from client" waits, the OEM indicates that the current wait event is SQL*Net more data from client
It's just a very simple query wich invokes a db link.
When I execute the same query on any PL/SQL tool like toad or sql developer it works fine, but that query inside an application executed through a web based interface, it hangs for ever.
Where can I start looking for the problem.
We are working on a 3 Node RAC 11gr2, both databases are on the same RAC.
Thanks.

Hi ,
we managed to reproduce the case in test environment, below are the steps:
1)have 2 databases on different machines, will call the first one local, the other one remote.
2)in the local database create:
a - DBLink to remote database.
b - read data from remote database(we simply used select count(*) from dummy_table )
c - insert data into a table on the local database
d - terminate the connection between the 2 databases (disconnect either machine from the network)
e - commit on local database.
what we noticed was the following:
1)when the local database is disconnected from the network(the machine is not connected to any network at the moment): almost immediately throws an error, and issuing the following:
select * from dba_2pc_pending;we found some data .
2) when the remote database was disconnected(the local database is still connected to the network):
after 7-8 seconds an error is thrown, and issuing the following:
select * from dba_2pc_pending;did not return any data.
since this is pretty similar to our case ,we concluded that it's a network issue.
is this the correct behavior ?
as a temporary solution till the network issue is fixed ,we did the following:
1) changed the call of the remote procedure to calling a local procedure that calls the remote procedure.
2) added pragma autonomous_transaction to the local procedure.
3) at the end of the local procedure rollback the autonomous transaction.
it seems that since the global transaction does not use the DBLink database does not issue a 2PC commit.
this works in my cases since the DBLink is only issed to read data.

Hand Held application not recognising a database instance when running in cradled mode through Windows Mobile Device Centre.

How do I get a Hand Held application to recognise a database instance when running cradled through Mobile Device Centre?
I have a database instance on a networked machine as NZTESTSERVER2\NZ2008.
If I run the Hand Held application in WI-Fi connected mode it resolved this database connection name without any problems.
This database connection name also works from a Desktop application running on the PC that I have cradled the Hand Held to.
But the instance isn’t being resolved when I run the Hand Held application in cradled mode, without a Wi-Fi connection. In this case it still recognises the server address part ‘NZTESTSERVER2’ but it doesn’t recognise this with the database instance included
(\NZ2008).
I even tried using it with the servers IP and the instance (192.168.0.14\NZ2008), but again it recognises the server IP address (192.168.0.14), but not with the instance (\NZ2008).
So why does the app run in WI-Fi but not cradled mode?

It would better to understand your problem if you can share some code here,

Strange issue when running sql with false condition

Hi,
I'm running this query from the application:
select 22
from DUAL
where ( to_number(0) <> 0 ) and exists (
select 'X'
from TABULA.macdent$FNCITEMS
where ( macdent$FNCITEMS.QIV = to_number(0) ) );
And it takes a long time because it is checking the second condition.
Even though the first one is False.
When running it through sqlplus it takes nothing. and of course no rows returns.
The 0 in to_number is a bind variable
it looks like this:
select :intvar
from DUAL
where ( to_number(:QIV$) <> 0 ) and exists ( select 'X'
from TABULA.macdent$FNCITEMS
where ( macdent$FNCITEMS.QIV = to_number(:QIV$) ) )

Why are you using "to_number(0)"? the zero is already seen by oracle as a number.
The to_number function expects to get a character string as the argument: to_number('0')
See the difference?
As you currently have it coded, you are forcing oracle to do an implicit conversion of the number zero to the character string '0' in order to pass it to to_number to convert it back to the number zero.
And what is the point of "where to_number(0) <> 0"
When would that EVER be true?
And it takes a long time because it is checking the second condition.
Even though the first one is False.

So the query you showed at the top is not the query we are really dealing with. What is the data type of QIV$? At least now we know that comparison to zero is not a fixed value.
1 - filter predicate: ( IS NOT NULL AND 0<>TO_NUMBER(TO_CHAR(:QIV$)))
This suggests QIV$ is already a number, else why would you pass it to to_char? And as I said above, if it is already a number, why pass it to to_number? Here you appear to be explicitly doing what I described oracle as implicitly doing in your first query above.
But in sqlplus the filter predicates is different.
1 - filter(NULL IS NOT NULL AND EXISTS (SELECT 0 FROM "TABULA"."MACDENT$FNCITEMS" "MACDENT$FNCITEMS" WHERE

Load oracle jdbc driver error when run applet via the web

Hi All,
I have built an applet which connect to database via jdbc thin driver. It works fine when I run it through the applet viewer, but got a problem when run it through the web.
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: oracle/jdbc/driver/OracleDriver
I am using jdev9i 9.0.4 and jdk 1.4.2. The jdbc version is 9.0.1
I have added both the classes12.zip and ojdbc14.zip in the class path and also pack them together with my applet class. Here is the code
public class MyApplet extends Applet
implements Runnable
public void start()
if(theThread == null)
theThread = new Thread(this);
theThread.start();
Retrieve R = new Retrieve();
this.MyMap = R.retrieveDesc();
public class Retrieve
public Retrieve()
DriverManager.registerDriver(new oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver());
conn=DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:oracle:thin:@babyruth.wvu.edu:1703:devdw", User, Password);
conn.setAutoCommit(true);
connectStatus = true;
public HashMap retrieveDesc()
return map;
I have also built one HTML page NewApplet like this
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE> My New Applet</TITLE>
</HEAD>
<APPLET CODE="MyApplet.class" CODEBASE="menu" ARCHIVE="MyApplet.zip" WIDTH=300 HEIGHT=485>

<param name="bgcolor" value="255,255,255">
</HTML>
Any advice is highly appreciated

Sir,
Well you haven't "packed" them correctly. Why don't you just add the driver bits to the soucebase tag? or something like that anyway...

RRCPT does not add the URL (update sites) when run the AUT.

Hello,
I would like to ask two question:
1 ) Why RRCPT not add the update sites url of my Eclipse when running it through RRCPT.
I have checked it by running the APP without RRCPT and the urls are ok (by default), but not when running it with RRCPT.
Is it a bug or am I missing something? I have attached a screenshot of both situations in order to clarify.
2) Is there a problem when a make a test which restart the AUT? Basically, when I run this kind of test, the AUT does work similar as the first run.
Regards,
Agustin Celentano

I believe you need to go into System Preferences > Displays > Arrangement so the image you want appears on the projector.

External projector not being detected when running Leopard

We have recently upgraded a number of our instructor laptops to Leopard. Since the upgrade, we have confirmed an odd problem.
We have a number of multimedia carts in classrooms. The carts use an Extron VSW2 splitter to supply video to a ceiling mounted NEC LT280 projector. One input on the Extron device gets video from a CPU in the cart, the second input is for the laptop.
We have tested identical computers (2 - PowerBook G4 12" laptops, and 2 - MacBook Pro 15" laptops). In each case, one laptop is running OS 10.4.11, the other 10.5.1.
The computers running 10.4.11 detect the the projector and mirror the display. The computers running 10.5.1 will not detect the projector. The computers running 10.5.1 blank the screen when the video cable is attached, but nothing is displayed through the projector. System Profiler reports under 'Hardware -> Graphics/Displays -> Display Connector:' No Display Connected.
If I bypass the VGA splitter (plug the laptops into the VGA port at the wall plate which goes to the projector), both the 10.4 and 10.5 computers function perfectly.
If I do not have a desktop connected to the VGA splitter, both the 10.4 and 10.5 laptops seem to work fine.
I have contacted the vendor that installed the units – Extron has never heard of this problem.
Right now this issue is affecting several instructors, but later in the term, as students need to give presentations, this will turn into a major impediment.
My speculation (unfounded, at this point) is that Leopard may be reducing the signal/voltage being delivered to the video port; the result being that there is not enough signal to trigger the switchover in Extron device.
Any guidance or direction would be greatly appreciated.

I think that Extron has an loop through on Input 1 for a monitor. You're probably using it for the CPU on the cart. Try running the Macs into Input 1 instead of Input 2. You may get it to work. The proj output on Extron stuff is usually buffered so that the projector doesn't pass info back to the computer. If you go into input 1, the computer will "see" the monitor and output properly.
Maybe.
Mind you, that doesn't help a whole lot 'cause you need the monitor for the CPU, right?

When i run report through OC4J Application i get a exception message

When i run report through OC4J Application i get a exception message saying Server returning invalid xml and the exception number is JBO -29000. The Reports Server is installed on machine having IP 10.191.99.254.
Below is the exception message:
(oracle.jbo.JboException) JBO-29000: Unexpected exception caught: oracle.jbo.JboException, msg=JBO-29000: Unexpected exception caught: java.io.IOException, msg=Server returned HTTP response code: 500 for URL: http://10.191.99.254:8888/reports/rwservlet/showjobidnull
Anybody Please help me out with this issue.....because I am really fed up with this problem....want some urgent help.....
One possible workaround which I could make out is there needs change to be made in the .rdf files in Report Builder and then inside the User Parameters we change the Initial Value to * from % because the Reports Server encodes every value as %Initial_Value% and hence if the initial value for the parameter is % then it does not get a valid value and hence it returns as an invalid xml
But unfortunately it seems this workaround does not work.Please help as soon as possible.

Hi,
you said that some changes were made in the .xml files but i had said that all the files present in Reports Developer or Reports Builder are .rdf files and I had made changes in the .rdf files for this articular report and then compiled it thereitself and then ran a paper layout of the report but the report did not comprise any data.
There was sufficient data also to populate the report. So this may not be a database issue. Please help if you can ASAP.

Performance slowdown when running through report server

There is a considerable difference between running a particular report through the report server. It is slower than when run directly from ReportBuilder.
Each points to the same data/application server. There is very little formatting or other work required of the client.
The difference is about 10-fold, i.e. a report taking 1 minute to run via ReportBuilder takes about 10 minutes when launched through the report server.
I have no idea how to begin diagnosing this. Our DBA says it is possible for the 'explain plan' to differ because the SQL is contained within the .REP file (and not as a stored procedure in the database). Even so, how/where would one begin looking to discover the reason for the dramatic performance difference?
Performance monitors on both the app/database server and the Oracle engine show that the slow running report consumes about the same amount of resources as the faster report. The slower report simply takes 10 times as long to run.
Perhaps we're not looking at the 'best' performance monitor parameters?
Anything else we can use to trace execution differences?

When we get this we try the following.
The dba's have some tool which can view the sql running under the server and the builder - you can then see if the plan is different.
Ordering - if there is a lot of ordering we get the SQL to pre order using the ORDER BY clause, this means the IAS server has less work to do (depending on your PC we find a PC is always quicker at formatting than the server).
Userlogon - we have a different user logon to that used by the server, this sometimes gives rise to different plans. You can change this in reports using ALTER_SESSION. E.g. we find this can speed up reports:
srw.do_sql('ALTER SESSION SET optimizer_index_cost_adj=50');
srw.do_sql('ALTER SESSION SET optimizer_index_caching=90'); if put in the before report trigger (nb the values may differ depending on your environment.
