Do I have everything I need?

I am a college student in a CS program that teaches in C++. I decided to try to get a good background in Java this summer while out of school. I bought an interactive tutorial for Java that I find out now is outdated and unsupported.
I decided to download the J2SE Studio Creator bundle to use the IDE with the cyberclassroom that came with the tutorial.
What I need to know is if I have all the components. Such as the Java plug-in, Java Media Framework, or the SDK that I needed for the old software. I can't find them anywhere now. I thought that the latest version might no longer need them.
The software I've downloaded:
Java Runtime Environment (JRE)
Sun Java Studio Creator 2, update 1
Sun Download Manager (SDM) v1.3
and have updated using manager
downloaded all the tutorial modules
Can you think of anything else I need or might help with my learning process?

From the Java Studio Creator Website:
Sun Java Studio Creator 2 is an easy-to-use visual web development environment for the Java platform. Developers can build standards-based web applications and portlets visually using JavaServer Faces through a powerful drag-and-drop user interface. Integration with heterogeneous data sources such as relational databases, Enterprise JavaBeans, and web services is simplified, and many other convenient features are included as well
As such, it is not an IDE I would recommend to someone wanting to learn Java - it's too specialized.
There are 2 camps - one that says learn Java using an IDE; the other says learn Java using a program editor, then when one is reasonably proficient with Java's basics move to an IDE.
I recommend the 2nd way, you will learn Java faster and better. Once you've the basics, you can evaluate the different IDE's.
The Java technology forums, here: http://forum.java.sun.com/index.jspa
especially the New to Java forum, should be very useful. If you search the forums for "editor recommendations", you will find a number of suggestions.
The JSC IDE is based on the NetBeans IDE. The NB website provides a webpage that has good resource links and recommendations for people wanting to learn Java, here:
http://www.netbeans.org/kb/articles/learn-java.html
Sun also has a New to Java Center, here: http://java.sun.com/developer/onlineTraining/new2java/
Enjoy!

Need Help Putting Together a rMBP so I Have Everything I Need...

Hello-
I am having trouble getting the right kind of help from "Chat Now" on apple.com and calling in to get my questions/needs taken care of so that when I get the rMBP I will be sure I wil have what I need to go right online and teach the online courses. I even went to the local apple store and woked with a couple sames guys there, but they were not clear in a couple situations on what I would need with the different options the rMBP gives. so I am truning to the great apple forum for additional help. this might be too much to ask even for tis forum, but if I can learn a little at a time, maybe I can gradually gain the knowledge I need to have a complete and functioning home office for my personal computing needs and my needs as an online teacher at a university back East. My technical knowledge is not the best, so as far as the rMBP goes, a big problem for me is that I do not have the knowledge to make sure I order everything I need with the changes a new rMBP will bring to my current setup (which is just a basic MBP using a wireless router and a USB cable for the printer that I just connect when I need to print). I realizee my current set up on my desk is not the most advanced, but I would need a pro to come to my office and help me get the best set-up for what I am curently using. It seems that the agents I chat with and/or talk to on the phone are aslo lacking in knowledge to help me put together a rMBP that will be ready to fully use and have with the order all that I need so that I do not have to order additional items in a mad rush to be ready for the courses I am teaching online. I have read several articles about the rMBP so that I cold have some knowledge about what I will need but as I said my techie knowledge is lacking. I am looking at the 15" rMBP with all of the full upgrades that the configure option allows one to get. I am not clear if I do run into trouble with my wi fi and have to use my ethernet cable what I will need to do this. I also have programs that are older that I am guesing I will need to install using a DVD player. I would like to hook up the printer I have or a new Canon printer and use it wirelessly, but for now I will most likely be using it with a USB cable. I am not clear on the thunderbolt technology and if I should get any of these cables for any of the connections. I also would like to get a great speaker system and will need to hook that up, but I am not clear on the best way to do this. I have been wanting an iMac, but I am not sure what is a good slection to get and how to connect it to the rMBP or one of the other 2 older MBPs I currently have.
If somebody could list for me what I would need to have a complete rMBP that will allow me to do these hookups and connections and explain what would be the best way to complete the various connections so that I have all that I will need to get up and running, I would really appreciate it. Because I do not have any USB 3.0 cables or cables for various additional connections, I would need help/suggestions in this area. I realize this is hard to do not seeing my office, but since I will be starting new with the purchase of the new rMBP and hopefully an iMac (and a new Canon printer and new set of great sounding speakers) getting some advice on what I should order for the various connections would be a hugh help. Part of the problem is with the rMBP and not having used one of these in the past. I know some of the differences with this machine like the lack of an internal SuperDrive and the new ports, but I do not know what cables I will need that will utilize the newer technology this machine and an imac will bring to my office.
Any suggestions are greatly appreciated, even if you do not give me specific answers, but an idea, for example, of what I might need to connect the speaker system (knowing the best way the new speaker system shold be connected to the rMBP and/or the iMac. I am not even clear if I do want to use the iMac with the rMBP for teaching with a larger display what I will need to connect the imac to the rMBP. is this done by an HDMI cable and if so is there a specific type or example you could mention that is on apple.com?

There are many differences with the new rMBP. There are ports that I am not sure what I would use them for. Even the ethernet cable I use now to get the internet will not work with the rMBP. I thought there would be some additional help on here. as far as configuring the rMBP there are just a few options but the differences between an older MBP and the new rMBP is great. No need to reply I will turn off email notifications. I gave as much information as I did because in the past I was told to give more information.

Does my old HDD have everything I need for transfer to the new MBP?

I have last year's 2.4 GHz MBP (with an upgraded 7200 RPM drive installed). Can I just transfer my existing HDD to the new MBP, or will there be a problem with not having the correct drivers (i.e. for the new Penryn processor or upgraded, 512 MB VRAM)?
It this IS going to be a problem, can I just re-install 10.5.2 (keeping everything else) from the new CDs that come with the computer (or will it not even let me get that far)?
Thanks!

So, you DO think the drivers are a concern?
Yes.
I guess an "Archive and Install" is necessary then?
You may or may not need to do an Archive & Install as opposed to simply installing the new MacBook's software.

I followed everything I need to do to enable my Apple ID account multiple times. Yet I still am not able to purchase anything. Not even with apple credits I have already stored in my account. Is there something I'm missing or doing wrong.

I followed everything I need to do to enable my Apple ID account multiple times. Yet I still am not able to purchase anything. Not even with apple credits I have already stored in my account. Is there something I'm missing or doing wrong?

What happens when you try to buy something ? If you are still getting the disabled message then since resetting your password have you logged out of your account on your device (by tapping on your id in Settings > iTunes & App Store) or computer's iTunes (Store > Sign Out menu option) and then logged back in so as to 'refresh' the account on it ?
If that doesn't fix it then you might need to contact iTunes Support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page

I bought my iMac from someone. Everything was changed over to my name however when I try to update programs it only shows the old users apple ID and I can't update. How do I change this so I can update the applications and have everything fully under me?

The first thing to do with a second-hand computer is to erase the internal drive and install a clean copy of OS X. You — not the previous owner — must do that. How you do it depends on the model, and on whether you already own another Mac. If you're not sure of the model, enter the serial number on this page. Then find the model on this page to see what OS version was originally installed.
1. You don't own another Mac.
If the machine shipped with OS X 10.4 or 10.5, you need a boxed and shrink-wrapped retail Snow Leopard (OS X 10.6) installation disc from the Apple Store or a reputable reseller — not from eBay or anything of the kind. If the machine has less than 1 GB of memory, you'll need to add more in order to install 10.6. Preferably, install as much memory as it can take, according to the technical specifications.
If the machine shipped with OS X 10.6, you need the installation media that came with it: gray installation discs, or a USB flash drive for some MacBook Air models. For early MBA models, you may need a USB optical drive or Remote Disc. You should have received the media from the previous owner, but if you didn't, order replacements from Apple. A retail disc, or the gray discs from another model, will not work.
To boot from an optical disc or a flash drive, insert it, then reboot and hold down the C key at the startup chime. Release the key when you see the gray Apple logo on the screen.
If the machine shipped with OS X 10.7 or later, you don't need media. It should boot into Internet Recovery mode when you hold down the key combination option-command-R at the startup chime. Release the keys when you see a spinning globe.
2. You do own another Mac.
If you already own another Mac that was upgraded in the App Store to the version of OS X that you want to install, and if the new Mac is compatible with it, then you can install it. Use Recovery Disk Assistant to create a bootable USB device and boot the new Mac from it by holding down the C key at the startup chime. Alternatively, if you have a Time Machine backup of OS X 10.7.3 or later on an external hard drive (not a Time Capsule or other network device), you can boot from that by holding down the option key and selecting it from the row of icons that appears. Note that if your other Mac was never upgraded in the App Store, you can't use this method.
Once booted in Recovery, launch Disk Utility and select the icon of the internal drive — not any of the volume icons nested beneath it. In the Partition tab, select the default options: a GUID partition table with one data volume in Mac OS Extended (Journaled) format. This operation will permanently remove all existing data on the drive.
After partitioning, quit Disk Utility and run the OS X Installer. You will need the Apple ID and password that you used to upgrade. When the installation is done, the system will automatically reboot into the Setup Assistant, which will prompt you to transfer the data from another Mac, its backups, or from a Windows computer. If you have any data to transfer, this is usually the best time to do it.
Then run Software Update and install all available system updates from Apple. To upgrade to a major version of OS X newer than 10.6, get it from the Mac App Store. Note that you can't keep an upgraded version that was installed by the previous owner. He or she can't legally transfer it to you, and without the Apple ID you won't be able to update it in Software Update or reinstall, if that becomes necessary. The same goes for any App Store products that the previous owner installed — you have to repurchase them.
3. Other issues
If you see a lock screen when trying to boot from installation media or in Recovery mode, then a firmware password was set by the previous owner, or the machine was remotely locked via iCloud. You'll either have to contact the owner or take the machine to an Apple Store or another authorized service provider to be unlocked. You may be asked for proof of ownership.
If the previous owner "accepted" the bundled iLife applications (iPhoto, iMovie, and Garage Band) in the App Store so that he or she could update them, then they're linked to that Apple ID and you won't be able to download them without buying them. Reportedly, Mac App Store Customer Service has sometimes issued redemption codes for these apps to second owners who asked.
If the previous owner didn't deauthorize the computer in the iTunes Store under his Apple ID, you wont be able to authorize it immediately under your ID. In that case, you'll either have to wait up to 90 days or contact iTunes Support.
When trying to create a new iCloud account, you might get a failure message: "Account limit reached." Apple imposes a limit of three iCloud account setups per device. Erasing the device does not reset the limit. You can still use an account that was created on another device, but you won't be able to create a new one. Contact iCloud Support for more information.

Everything you need to know about Foxtel Go

Foxtel on T-Box customers can self register Foxtel Go on 2 devices per Foxtel on T-Box subscription. You are able to view content on 1 of the 2 registered devices. The T-Box device will automatically be registered on your behalf and cannot be deregistered. You can change the device they have registered once per calendar month.
To change a registered device you must log into the Foxtel Go app. As a Foxtel from Telstra customer please use your Foxtel My account details. As a Foxtel on T-Box customer please log in with your primary (i.e. the first username created and linked to your account) BigPond username and password.
Once in the app go to the settings icon and choose 'manage my devices'. Within this section of the app you will be able to select de-register for the device you wish to change. To register, download the Foxtel Go app and log in. You will be prompted to register the device.
Remember you can only change one device once per calendar month. If you are still able to make a change, you will be advised of the number of device registrations left this month.
If you recently registered your T-Box, you should have access to Foxtel Go within 1 hour. If you are experiencing errors please try closing the Foxtel Go App and logging in again. If you are still unable to access any content please contact us via Telstra 24x7 or Telstra Technical Support on 13 22 00
If you swap your Foxtel on T-Box service to a new device, your Foxtel Go service is not affected as it is associated to your BigPond username and password, and not the T-Box device.
When trying to make a second device change within a month the de-register' button will be greyed out, preventing the change.
Current channel rights only allow Foxtel Go to be registered on 3 devices per Foxtel Account. For Foxtel on T-Box customers, the T-Box counts as your 3rd device.
The parental control function is specific to Foxtel Go and managed in the app via the settings icon. To access parental control:
Go to the settings' icon in the app (top right)
Access parental controls'
Choose which classifications you'd like to restrict
All R-rated content is automatically blocked, but you can personalise your restrictions for other ratings. To do this go to Settings in the Foxtel Go app, turn on Parental Controls and restrict the classifications you would like to block. If this is the first time you do this you'll be prompted to set a 4 digit PIN specifically for Foxtel Go. You can use this PIN to change your parental controls in the future. This PIN is only applicable to the Foxtel Go app. For Foxtel from Telstra customers, the PIN is not the same as you use on your IQ or Set Top Box, and you will be required to setup a new PIN to restrict content on Foxtel Go. For Foxtel on T-Box customers, the PIN is not the same as you use on your T-Box, and you will be required to setup a new PIN to restrict content on Foxtel Go.
Foxtel Go content is unmetered with Telstra BigPond Home Broadband services. With other internet service providers this will be offset against your data plan.
If you use Foxtel Go on your device with any 3G/4G telecommunications service provider, including Telstra, usage isn't unmetered and you will incur data charges when using Foxtel Go. The below list provides an indicationof the data you will use per device on the various app settings, based on watching an hour of TV. To view your settings go to the 'settings' icon in the Foxtel Go App, turn on 'video settings' and choose your preferred quality:
3G Phone/Tablet Best: 320 MB per hour / Low: 170 MB per hour
Wi-Fi Phone Best: 420 MB per hour / Low: 320 MB per hour
Wi-Fi Tablet Best: 720 MB per hour / Low: 320 MB per hour
Wi-Fi PC/Mac Best: 1310 MB per hour / Low: 470 MB per hour
The size of each episode or Movie on Catch up TV can be found on the Synopsis tab.
You can use Foxtel Go at a Wi-Fi location or a personal hotspot when you are in Australia provided you have an internet connection. Some locations offer Wi-Fi hotspots where you can log onto the internet for free. e.g. McDonalds, Starbucks, etc. Any data charges incurred are charged to the business and not to you. When connected to Wi-Fi, you'll see a Wi-Fi symbol on your device.
Foxtel from Telstra customers with a Foxtel iQ or iQHD set top box can Remote Record and send a channel change to their set top box. Unfortunately this functionality is not available to Foxtel on T-Box customers.
You can pause and rewind the last 30 minutes of Live TV, even if you've just changed to that channel. Due to device restrictions users of Samsung Android devices are unable to use this feature.
Foxtel Go is a streaming video service. Streaming means that images and sound are delivered live to your device to view when you press Play, rather than being downloaded to your device to view at a later time.
Games you'd normally see on Foxtel from Telstra or Foxtel on T-Box on FOX SPORTS 3 are broadcast on Foxtel Go on the Footy Play Plus channel
There are no Catch Up of AFL games or magazine shows on Foxtel Go due to content restrictions.
The key symbol indicates that a channel isn't part of your package. You need to upgrade your Foxtel from Telstra or Foxtel on T-Box package to watch it. Your package can not be updated through the Foxtel Go app. For Foxtel on T-Box customers you can update your packages in the T-Box App, at www.telstra.com/tboxsetup, via 13 2200 or in store. For Foxtel from Telstra customers you can update your packages through the store or via 13 1999. The lock symbol indicates that, as part of your parental control setting, you've locked this classification of content, and can't watch it. If you want to change the settings then the primary (i.e. the first username created and linked to your account) account holder can change these by:
Go to the settings' icon in the app (top right)
Access parental controls'
Choose which classifications you'd like to restrict
No other username or password can change the parental control settings.
We may be required to block out specific programming from time to time, e.g. if a channel doesn't have the legal right to broadcast the programme over the internet. However, all live channels are the same as channels you watch through Foxtel from Telstra or Foxtel on T-Box.
The vast majority of the Foxtel on T-Box content is available via Foxtel Go. There are some minor exceptions. MTV Music and MTV Dance channels are not available. FOOTY PLAY and FOOTY PLAY+ (overflow) channels are not available on PC and Mac only.
Access to Foxtel Go is included in your Foxtel on T-Box and Foxtel from Telstra subscription. However, you will incur data charges when accessing the service on a 3G/4G network.

My iphone5 crashed Wed May 29 and I am not sure why.. I had to do a restore and have been trying to slowly get everything back on the phone... Yesterday June 6 it blacked out once and I don't have everything on the phone as before.... Is it damaged and should I try to get a new one?

Thank you again for all of your help!! I really appreciate it!
I think I am following -- I was able to upload to my iPhoto and all photos and videos are there that is a plus! I tried to create an Event in my iPhoto and put all of my photos in that event but for some reason, now my iTunes it not recognizing that Event in my iPhoto. It is not allowing me to import just that event at the moment but I may be doing something wrong. At least all of my pics and vids are in iPhoto so that is a plus and I know they are at least saved somewhere. Just for some reason, my iTunes it not locating the event that I created with only those photos.
Thank you for letting me know about my contacts! How do I know if I have the contacts app?
Also, I had no clue that my iCloud could be backed up via cellular data! However, is this a new feature with the most updated iOS?? Unforutnatly I am like 2 iOS updates behind because I don't have enough storage on my phone. I still get the notification that my phone needs to be plugged in and connected to wifi in order to back up to the cloud :-(
How can I sync using USB? Right now when i click on the info tab for my iPhone in my iTunes this is the answer that I get -- I am a little unclear as to what it means.
Sync Contacts:
Your contacts are being synced with you iPhone over the air from iCloud. Over-the-air sync settings can be changed on you iPhone

Sol10 u8 installed on a ZFS Root File System have different swap needs?

Does Sol10 u8 installed on a ZFS Root File System have different swap needs/processes?
Information:
I've installed Solaris 10 (10/09 s10s_u8wos_08a SPARC, Assembled 16 September 2009) on a half dozen servers and every one of them no longer mount swap at boot.
The install program commented out the old swap entry and created this one:
# grep swap /etc/vfstab
swap - /tmp tmpfs - yes -
Everything works like a champ. I didn't discover the issue until I tried to install some patches and the install failed. It didn't fail because of lack of swap - it refused to run because it found "No swap devices configured".
Here are the symptoms:
# swap -s
total: 183216k bytes allocated + 23832k reserved = 207048k used, 13600032k available
# swap -l
No swap devices configured
# mount | grep swap

Hi Nitabills,
I assume that you create a zfs entry for swap with the commande zfs create -V $size
did you launch the command :
swap -a /dev/zvol/dsdk/$ZPOOL/swap
Try this entry below in the vfstab :
/dev/zvol/dsdk/$ZPOOL/swap - - swap - no -

Everything I need to make an application

I am really interested in making an application for apple. I have no clue into what I need to get this done. Will someone please let me know everything I need to make an application? Where can I get a license for it? Thanks to whoever knows.

Hi, and welcome to the Dev Forums!
Your question is very broad and would best be answered by any one of a number of books. I really don't know which book to recommend without understanding a little more about your background and goals.
Firstly, we'll need to know whether you want to develop for the Mac, iPhone or Safari. It might also be good to know what kind of app you have in mind.
Secondly, it would be helpful to know whether you intend to design and program this app personally or whether you intend to hire people with expertise in developing Apple software. If you intend to develop the app yourself, it would be most helpful to know what you have developed in the past and/or your related college coursework or self-study.
There's a wealth of information at the Apple Developer sites, and I would recommend becoming familiar with the site that applies to your interest area: [http://developer.apple.com>. If you live near a good book store, I'd also recommend spending time in the Apple developer section. Typing +programming apple+ in the search field of an online bookstore will also give you lots to look over.
Hope that's helpful!

Automatic customization swu3----is it necessary to have everything in green

Hi Experts,
when i checked SWU3 there are few things which are in red like
under Maintain runtime environment-----schedule background job for event queue is in red means it is not configured.
under maintain definition environment ---maintain prefix number and check entriues from hr control table is not configured
under maintain additional---maintain web server maintain demo is not configured
under classy task as general---nothing is configured
under guided---nothing is configured
is it necessary to have everything configured here
please guide me.
thanks in advance

The event queue is used to distrubute the load on high-volume workflows (e.g. hundreds or thousands starting at once). Plenty of info in the help. Unless you configure workflows to use it, switching on the event queue job is a waste of resources so I do not suggest running it if you dont' use it.
I do not agree with comments that everything should be green. It is far more important to understand each options and then decide whether you need it. Therefore I suggest spending some time reading the comments with each. For example, why would you want to make test workflows available to all users? As I also mentioned earlier, prefix numbers should ONLY be defined in systems where development is carried out.

Why am I not able to download Adobe when it seems I have everything to do so?

why am i not able to download adobe when it seems I have everything to do so? What are the steps I need to be checking so I'll have no problem downloading what I just purchased?

Hi Joshua,
I see that your Acrobat Standard subscription order is still pending. But you should be able to download your software. What happens when you log in to your account at https://cloud.acrobat.com/acrobat? If you can't get it from that page, you can download it directly from Download Acrobat products | Standard, Pro | XI, X - Adobe.
Once your subscription order processes, you'll be able to log in and use Acrobat.
Best,
Sara
