Dual display problems when using keynote, powerpoint etc..
I can run my macbook in mirroring mode and extended desktop no probs but as soon as I run programs such as powerpoint, keynote or presenter software it will run the slides on the MacBook screen and put the control/operators screen on the projected screen/secondary display!!!!
Any idea's as I would like to see the control screen myself and the MacBook screen is obviously to small for me to use to present slides! It sort of defeats the object of having second display...
Any idea's???
Hi,
Under preferences for Keynote - Presenter Display - there is a checkbox option which seems to change which display is used to show slides/information.

Display problem when using external monitor
Got any ideas about this? My friend has extended his imac (intel) display to another monitor using the mini dvi to vga. He can't see a thing on the imac but the system is up. He see a faint outline of the windows on the imac but its really dark. The extended monitor is showing fine. He plugged it out, shut it down and all of that but the screen just does not display.
Same problem. I have always extended my monitor though. Today I went to lunch... came back... no display... I am using it right now though, I finally was able to figure out how to get the external monitor to act as a clone. The support guy said there wasn't a way to do this, but if you hit option F7 it will switch to clone, then you can go to the display settings and set the external monitor to have the white bar.
So its all functioning, but the laptop lcd is blank. Actually its just a white screen, which apparently is 'blank' though to me blank is black. It flickers and weird outlines show here and there.
The support guy was insistant it was a boot issue. But it can't be, everythign else works. Everywhere I look, there are people asking, and nobody from apple answering. He is sending me a box to send to support. 7-10 day turnaround... 7-10 days that I am going to be out of the water.
The support guy's computer crashed twice while I was on the phone with him. -
NLS support problems when using AL32UTF8 in dads.conf
Hello,
Following a post by Joel Kallman, in one of the forum threads, about the mandatory use of AL32UTF8 in dads.conf, when running HTML DB v2.0, I changed my PlsqlNLSLanguage parameter accordingly.
Prior to the change, I experienced some problems when using non-English characters some application items appeared as gibberish when contained non-English characters, and the LIKE operator didn't perform as expected. After the change, it all seems to work OK, but now I have a different problem.
All the non-English characters in my HTML page source code appears as gibberish. On screen, at run time, everything display correctly, but the source code seems to be corrupted. It is very difficult, and very annoying to debug the pages that way. Is there a way to enjoy both worlds Using AL32UTF8 in the dads.conf, as required, and still getting a coherent HTML source code, containing non-English characters?
Thanks,
Arie.Joel,
I use the following settings and they work fine for me:

Using AL32UTF8 resulted in the same problem as described ( and fixed ) here: Re: Strange - HTML not written correctly
So, what is the proper configuration of the DAD, perhaps there are different ones for Unicode instances and non-Unicode instances.

ORA-01403: no data found Problem when using AUTOMATIC ROW FETCH to populate
ORA-01403: no data found Problem when using AUTOMATIC ROW FETCH to populate a form.
1) Created a FORM on EMP using the wizards. This creates an AUTOMATIC ROW FETCH
TABLE NAME - EMP
Item Containing PRIMARY KEY - P2099_EMPNO
Primary key column - EMPNO
By default the automatic fetch has a ‘Process Error Message’ of ‘Unable to fetch row.’
2) Created a HTML region. Within this region add
text item P2099_FIND_EMPNO
Button GET_EMP to submit
Branch Modified the conditional branch created during button creation to set P2099_EMPNO with &P2099_FIND_EMPNO.
If I then run the page, enter an existing employee number into P2099_EMPNO and press the GET_EMP button the form is populated correctly. But if I enter an employee that does not exist then I get the oracle error ORA-01403: no data found and no form displayed but a message at the top of the page ‘Action Processed’.I was expecting a blank form to be displayed with the message ‘Unable to fetch row.’
I can work around this by making the automated fetch conditional so that it checks the row exists first. Modify the Fetch row from EMP automated fetch so that it is conditional
EXIST (SQL query returns at least one row)
select 'x'
from EMP
where EMPNO = :P2099_EMPNO
But this means that when the employee exists I must be fetching from the DB twice, once for the condition and then again for the actual row fetch.
Rather than the above work around is there something I can change so I don’t get the Oracle error? I’m now wondering if the automatic row fetch is only supposed to be used when linking a report to a form and that I should be writing the fetch process manually. The reason I haven’t at the moment is I’m trying to stick with the automatic wizard generation as much as I can.
Any ideas?
Thanks PeteHi Mike,
I've tried doing that but it doesn't seem to make any difference. If I turn debug on it shows below.
0.05: Computation point: AFTER_HEADER
0.05: Processing point: AFTER_HEADER
0.05: ...Process "Fetch Row from EMP": DML_FETCH_ROW (AFTER_HEADER) F|#OWNER#:EMP:P2099_EMPNO:EMPNO
0.05: Show ERROR page...
0.05: Performing rollback...
0.05: Processing point: AFTER_ERROR_HEADER
I don't really wan't the error page, either nothing with the form not being populated or a message at the top of the page.
Thanks Pete -
Another dual display problem - GeForce FX 5200
I've seen lots of questions about dual display problem, situation when trying to connect two non-apple vga displays to your graphic card.
I have GeForce FX 5200 graphic card, with 2 display output's. And two DELL 17" vga LCD displays.
I manage to connect 1 display regulary with dvi to vga converter, but for other display I tried several difrent converters ADC to DVI to VGA, and it just did NOT work.
G5 could see other display in display settings, in arrange option I coud see two identical displays, but I don't get anu picture (desktop) on other display???
Is it problem with output's on my graphic card (Gforce FX 5200), could it be soloved with some ADC to VGA converter?
P.S. Dr. Bott ADC VGA Extractor is not compatible with GeForce FX 5200????

problem, situation when trying to connect two

This won't work if the ADC to DVI adapter is not passing through the analog signals needed for VGA.

Yes.

It should work. On Dr. Botts web-site it says:

Why do I get no sound through the i-pad speakerts when using Keynotes but when external speakers or headphones are plugged in sound is there. Also how do you get back to the program page when in play mode on i-pad?
Whoa, I found the answer by clicking on one of the questions in the "More Like This" box to the right. I do wonder how to find that box before posting my dumb question. The answer turned out to be checking the youtube volume control. I turned that up and it solved the problem for Comast as well.

Coercion problem when using Shared Variable
I have a curious coercion problem when using Shared Variables. I want to share the state of a State Machine, which is an enum saved as a control (typedef) called TYPE State (see attached). I create a shared variable called State and define it as a Custom Control, using the just-mentioned typedef. So far, so good. I've attached three simple VIs -- the first one, Init State, simply wires a constant to the input of the Shared Variable to initialize it -- the wired constant is, of course, defined by the typedef. However, the Get State and Set State, meant to wire an indicator (for reading the state) or control (for setting it), develop coercion dots when wired into the Shared Variable. Why? How do I get rid of the dot? [I suppose I could abandon my typedef and custom control, but the beauty of typedefs and custom controls is that it "enforces" rules, lets you use enums for clarity, keeps the code "honest", etc. -- I'd hate to give that up just to get rid of a dot!].
On a related note, the code seems to work. This is much too simplistic to do anything, but if you open Set State and Get State, set the state to anything, run it (it immediately stops, of course), then run Get State, you'll see the chosen state appear in the indicator. So it does appear to work. The "error" (coercion dot) may, I suppose, be a "bug" in Labview because it can't figure out the mapping of the (very simple!) Custom Control, but if so, I hope it gets fixed quickly!

Coercion Problem1.zip 38 KBHello Bob,
I am also seeing this behavior, I will escalate this question to our LabVIEW developers and post again here no later than next Tuesday, November 27th as National Instruments will be closed for the remainder of this week.
If this issue does turn into a product suggestion, I would suspect the workaround would to live with the coersion dot for the time being.
Enjoy the holiday

Problem when using Javabeans in ADF?
Hi,
I encountered a problem when using ADF.
Please look at the following 2 classes :
public class Person
private String name;
private String city;
private int age;
public Person(String name, int age, String city)
this.name = name;
this.age = age;
this.city = city;
public Person()
public void setName(String name)
this.name = name;
public String getName()
return name;
public void setAge(int age)
this.age = age;
public int getAge()
return age;
public void setCity(String city)
this.city = city;
public String getCity()
return city;
public class PersonFactory
public PersonFactory()
public List getPersons()
List list = new ArrayList();
list.add(new Person("peit", 18, "dalian"));
list.add(new Person("robin", 22, "shenyang"));
list.add(new Person("Joe", 30, "York"));
list.add(new Person("Edi", 23, "Beijing"));
return list;
public List getNames()
List list = new ArrayList();
list.add("Peit");
list.add("Robin");
list.add("Joe");
list.add("Edi");
return list;
public void commit()
System.out.println("Data commited");
I created the PersonFactory class as DataControl, so I can use the getPersons() and getNames()(just for test, so they are simple), I drag the names from
the DataControl palette as Table in a JClientPanel, good luck, it works and displays the 4 Strings in a table, but when I drag the persons from
the DataControl palette as Table in the same JClientPanel, it does not work and raises exception :
java.lang.NullPointerException
at javax.swing.JTable.prepareRenderer(JTable.java:3731)
at javax.swing.plaf.basic.BasicTableUI.paintCell(BasicTableUI.java:1149)
at javax.swing.plaf.basic.BasicTableUI.paintCells(BasicTableUI.java:1051)
at javax.swing.plaf.basic.BasicTableUI.paint(BasicTableUI.java:974)
So, I confused why? How to edit it properly?
Thanks.

[email protected]Hi, Frank
Thank you for your reply.
I am sorry for not explaining well. I mean that the getNames() works fine, but getPersons() does not. The only diferenece between them is the former is simple string and the latter is javabean, but when I made the PersonFactory as DataControl, I set the bean class Person for the getPersons()(list of persons) bean class.
I debuged the class, the exceptions raised when the table for getPersons() setModel() method called.
So, where is the problem?
Thanks. -

Hi Rodney
Welcome to Apple Discussions
This sounds like one of those "oddities", contributed to by a few sources.
I can clear the Safari cache files as a temporary solution, but I encounter the same difficulties with the “problematic” files once they have been opened again.
Wondering if you disabled the Safari Cache would the refresh function work correctly? As a test you can disable the Safari Cache by Emptying the Cache first via the Safari menu, then Quit Safari. Now go to the Finder>Your User Library>Caches>Safari. Single click on the Safari folder, then Apple Key + I to open Info panel. There, check the "locked" box. This prevents further additions to the cache. The downside, you lose your ability to upload images etc. within Safari (my cache is disabled, so I use Firefox for the uploads).
Then restart Safari. Try the PDF from within Safari.

Display problems when antialiasing is enabled
I've written a Java app which uses a JPanel-derived class to render images and text in the paint() method.
This works fine unless I've enabled antialiasing in my video card settings (GeForce FX 5200 w/128MB RAM, Windows XP), in which case nothing but a gray window appears. Disabling antialiasing in the video card settings fixes the problem. Multiple users with different video cards have reported the same problem (so its not something specific to my card and/or drivers).
Is there something in my code I can do to ensure my app will properly render regardless of whether or not antialiasing is turned on on the user's machine?
Note that I also tested with a simple frame containing a progress bar and saw the same issue, i.e. the Swing components themselves didn't properly render with antialiasing turned on.
Any ideas?Hi,
Thanks, that seems to be doing a bit better. I am still having a bit of trouble though, mainly, the TV seems to be flickering very slightly throughout. Strangely, I did not have this problem when using a composite connection. Is there a setting somewhere to make for a clearer picture? For example, when I run the external display calibration application, and it asks me to adjust the background so it is the same color as the apple logo in the picture, the apple logo is constantly flickering (changing color from white to gray to black or so very rapidly).
Also, I am mainly using the TV connection to watch front row. How can I get front row to operate on the external display if I do not have them set to mirror each other?
Thanks a lot,

Problem when using About Operator in Contains Query
Hi,
I'm new to Oracle and this forums too. I have a problem when using about operator in contains query.
I create a table with some records and then create a context index on 'name' column.
CREATE TABLE my_items (
id NUMBER(10) NOT NULL,
name VARCHAR2(200) NOT NULL,
description VARCHAR2(4000) NOT NULL,
price NUMBER(7,2) NOT NULL
ALTER TABLE my_items ADD (
CONSTRAINT my_items_pk PRIMARY KEY (id)
CREATE SEQUENCE my_items_seq;
INSERT INTO my_items VALUES(my_items_seq.nextval, 'Car', 'Car description', 1);
INSERT INTO my_items VALUES(my_items_seq.nextval, 'Train', 'Train description', 2);
INSERT INTO my_items VALUES(my_items_seq.nextval, 'Japan', 'Japan description', 3);
INSERT INTO my_items VALUES(my_items_seq.nextval, 'China', 'China description', 4);
COMMIT;
EXEC ctx_ddl.create_preference('english_lexer','basic_lexer');
EXEC ctx_ddl.set_attribute('english_lexer','index_themes','yes');
EXEC ctx_ddl.set_attribute('english_lexer','theme_language','english');
CREATE INDEX my_items_name_idx ON my_items(name) INDEXTYPE IS CTXSYS.CONTEXT PARAMETERS('lexer english_lexer');
EXEC ctx_ddl.sync_index('my_items_name_idx');Then I perform contains query to retrieve record :
SELECT count(*) FROM my_items WHERE contains(name, 'Japan', 1) > 0;
COUNT(*)
1
SELECT count(*) FROM my_items WHERE contains(name, 'about(Japan)', 1) > 0;
COUNT(*)
1But the problem is when I using ABOUT operator like in Oracle's English Knowledge Base Category Hierarchy it return 0
SELECT count(*) FROM my_items WHERE contains(name, 'about(Asia)', 1) > 0;
COUNT(*)
0
SELECT count(*) FROM my_items WHERE contains(name, 'about(transportation)', 1) > 0;
COUNT(*)
0I can't figure out what 's wrong in my query or in my index.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks,

i tried everything in this article, but still have the same problem when using Rapidweaver software. NOT with other software. I am converting my iWeb site to Rapidweaver, whenever there is a calmer period in my office. I have 16 Gb RAM on my NEW iMac and have Parallels desktop, mail, safari, iWeb and Rapidweaver running simultanious.
I never have the problem if i don't use Rapidweaver, but after i have added several pages to Rapidweaver, the problem begins. my iMac won't start up. the only thing that works is re-installing Macos OS X 10.8. i tried even whiping the completeharddrive, and reinstalling with a complete new user, the same problem.
I had it on my previous iMac also, and bought a new one because i thought the problem was in the iMac first. i hadn't noticed it only happens with using rapidweaver.
i sent my complete rapidweaver project to the programmers from rapidweaver at Realmacsoftware, but they couldnt reproduce my problem, there macs started up without any problem.
i deleted all the rapidweaver addons and extra stacks, and started a complete new project.
saterday i had the problem again, after adding about 5 new pages to my rapidweaver site.
i think i have reinstalled Macos OS X 10.8.2 20 or 30 times by now
