Error 1603: Need some help with this one

When installing iTunes I first get an error box saying
"Error 1406: Could not write value to key \Software\classes\.cdda\OpenWithList\iTunes.exe. Verify that you have sufficient access to that key, or contact your support personnel."
The second one (after I click on Ignore on the last box) I get it this one:
"Error: -1603 Fatal error during installation.
Consult Windows Installer Help (Msi.chm) or MSDN for more information"
Strange thing is that I do have full access to my computer (or atleast in all other cases I have had since I am the only one with an account on it).
I have done my best in trying to solve it myself but I'm running out of ideas. I have downloaded latest versions from the website and tried installing Quicktime separately. I have also tried removing Quicktime using add/or remove programs though I just I didn't dare to take full removal because it said something about system files.
Anyway I really need some help with this, anyone got any ideas?

Do you know how to count backwards? Do you know how to construct a loop? Do you know what an autodecrementor is? Do you know how to use String length? Do you know Java arrays start with index 0 and run to length-1? Do you know you use length on arrays too? Do you know what System.out.println does?
Show us what you have, there isn't anything here that isn't easily done the same as it would be on paper.

Could i get some help with this one

the aim of this project is to make a n by n maze and traverse this. if, while traversing the maze the system realises that there is a dead end it turns back. My problem is that sometimes it turns back and sometimes it doesnt. Here, below is the method for traversing the maze. Could i get a second pair of eyes to help me out a bit with this code?
     * Prints out the current maze
    public void show()
         for (int i=0;i<array.length;i++)

System.out.println();
* traverses through the maze
* @param row: the current row

public void traverse(int row, int column)
if ((row==3)&&(column==column-1))//checks if the array has reached the end

That is truely one of the better threads that I've seen on the net for maze traversal.Forget "for maze traversal".

Need some help with this Design. Not sure if it can be done.

I am a full time RVer. I have a complex system installed in my RV. I am trying to share a wireless or use my AE to feed internet to the devices in my rack and allow my Apple TV to connect to my MBP over gigabit for streaming reasons.
Is there a way to share my internet to the AE so that it will feed the 3 ports? Can I somehow connect to a hotspot and share that internet connection to the other devices on my network wired and wireless?? I am mainly concerned with getting internet to the ATV while connected to it via ethernet for the gigabit connection.
It seems that I can connect the AE to a hotspot or WAP, but then I loose the ability to turn bridged mode off so that it will hand out DHCP ip addresses to the ethernet devices. I cannot extend any network unless the hotspot is using an apple device for its WAP. This is what apple told me when I was trying to extend my Linksys WAP4400N.
Any ideas or advice here would be great. I am just stuck for a solution to what I want to accomplish.
Thanks

One possible solution....(if I understand correctly what you're trying to accomplish with what you have to work with) I'm assuming that the Linksys has no internet connection in the RV and isn't really needed in my idea below.....or do you have a satellite connection (or some other internet source besides a public wireless network?
You could have your MBP join the wireless network, set up internet sharing (see OS X help) and share from airport to ethernet, connect an ethernet cable from MBP to WAN port on the Extreme, set the Extreme's connection sharing to "share a public IP", ignore the double NAT error (or you may be able to bridge it, I can't remember if the MBP will hand out several IPs but I think it will), and plug your Apple TV into a LAN port on the Extreme. Come to think about it, you really don't even need the Extreme unless you need other clients to connect, just plug the Apple TV into the MBP.
hope it helps

I'm getting a error saying Paragraph is not a function, but nor is mystory.paragraph(0) , so i'm just trying to figure out what synax goes before that.
=============================
The text that is bold is the prolbem i'm having. I just got a Javascript bible on how to program in javascript. How would i make that function work. I'm sure its simple. I'm just hoping I have If some Then ({) command follow by what I want it to do is correct. And I'm understanding this. there is so many different syntax's to choose from, any help would be appreciated. I work for a Newspaper company, and Indesign CS3 Javascript coding is a bit diffrent from normal javascript.

Okie, I'm making progress now. Because well it didnt crash, but then again, LOL the script didnt apply the paragraph styles when I selected the text!
any suggestions?
I'm also getting a weird error now with the loop, but I also dont think its working because maybe the myStyle and myStle1 aren't applying themselves correctly, in the first part of the script.

Need some help with this new setup I have

This is what I got for my new setup
A64 3000 939
K8N Neo4 Platinum MSI
1 gig of Mushkin duel chan. ddr 400
Gigabyte GeForce 6600 GT PCI-E
The ram I have is duel chan. I have no idea what this means Or what the ram needs to be set to is it faster than non duel ddr?

Quote from: igmox
it is like water flowing through two parallel pipes instead of one.
Quote from: mrbell84
Another example you could think of duel channel memory could be like a 2 lane motorway. You close one lane and cars can only go down 1 lane, but when you open another lane up thats another path for the cars to travel
Quote from: omnikron
One more thing is my psu going to be ok with that setup
Quote from: mrbell84
Yes your Power supply has 24 pin atx connector and also its a ATx2.0, which means its SLI/PCI-E Complient

Really need some help with this low earpiece volume issue.

I'm taking my iPhone to an Apple Store Genius tomorrow to check out the low volume in the earpiece. Has anyone else taken their phone in to an Apple Store and had the issue addressed? Are Geniuses just saying it is within spec? Has Apple published an article on this?
I realize that people are also frustrated over the low speakerphone volume, but the low volume in the earpiece is particularly concerning.
While traveling down the road it is very difficult to hear the person on the other end of the phone when using just the earpiece (no earbuds, no BT headset). The volume while using the earbuds is plenty loud.
Can anyone please shed some new light on this? I have had my iPhone for one week and I've got a bad feeling in my gut that this is a hardware issue and the earpiece speaker can't go any louder. Bummer.
(Obviously, all of my volume settings are maxed out).
-Joe

When the iPhones were first released, some people reported on their posts that they were able to take them to the Genius Bar, have a tech test it out, the tech would agree that the volume sounded low, and get their phone swapped right away. Unfortunately, there is no cut and dry answer because people have reported all sorts of different things- that the various software updates have fixed their volume, messing with the volume setting within iTunes, etc.
Personally, I think it is a software glitch. Why? I did this: I was playing the iPod without the earbuds and the volume was only set midrange. I covered the speaker on the bottom, cranked up the volume, and the sound coming out of the receiver was MUCH louder than it ever is when I am using the iPhone on a call. That to me indicates that the low volume it just a glitch that can be fixed, because it CAN obviously sound louder, just within a different function. Hope that makes sense.
Good luck tomorrow.

Need some help with this project (methods)

Ok. in this project it states the following:
Write an application that rolls a die and displays the reuslt. Let the user pick the number of sides on the die. Use the Die Class to represent the die in your program.
This is what i have so far, but im confused on how to utilize the Die class because it keeps giving me errors:
P4_3.java:
Code:
import cs1.Keyboard;
import java.util.Random;
// extends the Die class...
public class P4_3 extends Die
public static void main (String[] args)
{ // asks the user how many sides of the die there is.
int userSides;
System.out.println("How many sides of the die do you want?");
userSides = Keyboard.readInt();
System.out.println ("You rolled "+Die.die);
}Die.java:
Code:
// the die class
import cs1.Keyboard;
import java.util.Random;
public class Die extends P4_3
public static void Die()
// rolls the dice
Random generator = new Random();
int die;
die = generator.nextInt(P4_3.userSides) +1;
}It keeps giving me:
cannot resolve symbol
symbol : variable die
location: class Die
System.out.println ("You rolled "+Die.die);
^
cannot resolve symbol
symbol : variable userSides
location: class P4_3
die = generator.nextInt(P4_3.userSides) +1;Can somebody point me in the right direction?
Thanks, ps2cho
(PS: Please keep it as simple as possible, dont give me some crazy wacky tough code because i wont understand a word of it, no matter how hard you try to explain it. Simple simple simple!)

Concentric Circles---I need some help on this one...

I'm trying to figure out how to change the color of my concentric rings. Here is my code:
import java.applet.*;
import java.awt.*;
public class SvnRings extends Applet {
public void paint(Graphics g) {
int RectLeft, RectTop, RectHeight, RectWidth;
int AppletHeight = this.getSize().height;
int AppletWidth = this.getSize().width;
for (int i=8; i >= 0; i--) {
if ((i % 2) == 0) g.setColor(Color.red);
else g.setColor(Color.white);
RectHeight = AppletHeight*i/8;
RectWidth = AppletWidth*i/8;
RectLeft = AppletWidth/2 - i*AppletWidth/16;
RectTop = AppletHeight/2 - i*AppletHeight/16;
g.fillOval(RectLeft, RectTop, RectWidth, RectHeight);
Can anyone tell me what I am forgeting?

Well, what colours do you want them to be?
You could generate them randomly, based on a sequence or from an array. I'll do the latter 'cos it's easiest.
// 9 colours (for the 9 rings)
private Color[] colors = new Color[] {Color.RED, Color.ORANGE, Color.YELLOW, Color.GREEN, Color.BLUE, Color.CYAN, Color.PURPLE, Color.PINK, Color.WHITE};
for(int idx = 8; idx >= 0; idx--) {
g.setColor(colors[idx]);
}If you want a mathematical approach then you've got to create a new color in each iteration of the loop based on the loop value.
Hope this helps.

Need some help with threads...

Hello all,
I am working on a project at work, and I am not the best programmer in the world. I have been trying to get my head around this for a couple of days and just cannot get it to work.
I am writing an instrumentation control program that will have three threads. One is the GUI, one will receive control information and set up the hardware, and one will check the hardware status and report it to the GUI periodically. I plan on using the invokeLater() method to communicate the status to the GUI and change the status display in the GUI. Communication from the GUI to the controller thread and from the status thread to the controller thread I had planned on being piped input/output stream as appropriate. I have a control class and a status class that need to be communicated over these piped streams. In some trial code I have been unable to wrap the piped input/output streams with object input/output streams. I really need some help with this. Here is the main thread code:
package playingwiththreads1;
import java.io.*;*
*public class PlayingWithThreads1 {*
public static void main(String[] args) {*
* PipedOutputStream outputPipe = new PipedOutputStream();*
* ObjectOutputStream oos = null;*
* ReceiverThread rt = new ReceiverThread(outputPipe);*
// Start the thread -- First try*
* Thread t = new Thread(rt);*
t.start();*
// Wrap the output pipe with an ObjectOutputStream*
try*
oos = new ObjectOutputStream(outputPipe);*
catch (IOException e)*
System.out.println(e);*
// Start the thread -- Second try*
//Thread t = new Thread(rt);*
//t.start();*
/** Send an object over the pipe. In reality this object will be a
class that contains control or status information */
try
if (!oos.equals(null))
oos.writeObject(new String ("Test"));
catch (IOException e)
try
Thread.sleep(5000);
catch (InterruptedException e)
I read somewhere that it matters where you start the thread relative to where you wrap piped streams with the object streams. So, I tried the two places I felt were obvious to start the thread. These are noted in the comments. Here is the code for the thread.
package playingwiththreads1;
import java.io.*;
public class ReceiverThread implements Runnable {
private PipedInputStream inputPipe = new PipedInputStream();
private ObjectInputStream inputObject;
ReceiverThread (PipedOutputStream outputPipe)
System.out.println("Thread initialization - start");
try
inputPipe.connect(outputPipe);
inputObject = new ObjectInputStream(inputPipe);
catch (IOException e)
System.out.println(e);
System.out.println("Thread initialization - complete");
public void run()
System.out.println("Thread started");
try
if (inputObject.available() > 0)
System.out.println(inputObject.read());
catch (IOException e)
System.out.println(e);
Through testing I have determined that no matter where I start the thread, the thread never gets past the "inputObject = new ObjectInputStream(inputPipe);" assignment.
Could someone please help me with this? There are other ways for me to write this program, but this is the one that I would like to make work.
Many thanks in advance,

Thanks for the help, but that did not work. I tried flushing the ObjectOutputStream and it is still hanging when initializing the thread.
Here is a better look at the code since I was helped to figure out how to insert it:
The main method:
package playingwiththreads1;
import java.io.*;
public class PlayingWithThreads1 {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        PipedOutputStream outputPipe = new PipedOutputStream();
        ObjectOutputStream oos = null;
        ReceiverThread rt = new ReceiverThread(outputPipe);
        // Start the thread -- First try
        //Thread t = new Thread(rt);
        //t.start();
        // Wrap the output pipe with an ObjectOutputStream
        try
            oos = new ObjectOutputStream(outputPipe);
            oos.flush();
        catch (IOException e)
            System.out.println(e);
        // Start the thread -- Second try
        Thread t = new Thread(rt);
        t.start();
        /* Send an object over the pipe. In reality this object will be a
         * class that contains control or status information */
        try
            if (!oos.equals(null))
                oos.writeObject(new String ("Test"));
                oos.flush();
        catch (IOException e)
            System.out.pringln(e);
        try
            Thread.sleep(5000);
        catch (InterruptedException e)
}The thread code:
package playingwiththreads1;
import java.io.*;
public class ReceiverThread implements Runnable {
    private PipedInputStream inputPipe = new PipedInputStream();
    private ObjectInputStream inputObject;
    ReceiverThread (PipedOutputStream outputPipe)
        System.out.println("Thread initialization - start");
        try
            inputPipe.connect(outputPipe);
            inputObject = new ObjectInputStream(inputPipe);
        catch (IOException e)
            System.out.println(e);
        System.out.println("Thread initialization - complete");
    public void run()
        System.out.println("Thread started");
        try
            if (inputObject.available() > 0)
                System.out.println(inputObject.read());
        catch (IOException e)
            System.out.println(e);
}Does anyone else have and ideas?

Need some help with ".png" image.

Good day everyone. Here's the run down. I need to add an
image (image "A") ontop of another image (image"B"). Image "B" is a
paterned background. And Image "A" a logo with a transparent
background.
As it stands I have image "A" as a "png" and as you know....
they are fri**ing huge! Haveing it as a "gif" only presents me with
the IE6 problem of it adding a colored background to the image.
So I'm stuck! Can any one tell me or point me in the
difection of a tutorial to tell me the best way to add an image
with a transparent background in Dreamweaver.
Really need some help with this!
Thanks all!

Before going much further I'd recommend reconsidering the use
of a textured background. They are usually included for the benefit
of the site owner only, and likely to annoy visitors. Studies on
the subject suggest they often lead to usability problems. I do
like to header graphic, but at 200K it's kinda heavy and can
probably be optimized.

Please I need some help with a table

Hi All
I need some help with a table.
My table needs to hold prices that the user can update.
Also has a total of the column.
my question is if the user adds in a new price how can i pick up the value they have just entered and then add it to the total which will be the last row in the table?
I have a loop that gets all the values of the column, so I can get the total but it is when the user adds in a new value that I need some help with.
I have tried using but as I need to set the toal with something like total
    totalTable.setValueAt(total, totalTable.getRowCount()-1,1); I end up with an infinite loop.
Can any one please advise on some way I can get this to work ?
Thanks for reading

Need some help with a Macally enclosure and a spare internal drive

Need some help with a Macally enclousure

Aloha:
I have a Macally PHR-S100SUA enclousure that does not recognise,my WD 1001fals hard drive. It has worked just fine with other internal drives, but not this one?
This is a spare internal drive that I am trying to make an external drive to store back ups for a lot of data. But so far I can not get it recognized by the computer. Maybe I need different drivers?
Any suggestions?
Dan Page

Hi-
Drivers aren't typically needed for external enclosures.
Macally has none listed for that enclosure.
The same is true for the WD drive, internal or external; no drivers.
With the exception of high end PM multi drive enclosures, I can't think of any that use drivers.
How is the external connected?
Have you tried different cables, different ports?
Bad/damaged cables are fairly common.
Have you verified connections inside of the enclosure?

Need some help with putting a folder in users directory

I'm not sure how to do this, but what I want to do is put this file in C:/My Documents, but I need to be able to verify that C://My Documents exists, if not put it in C:/Program Files.
Can any one help me out?
try {
                    String[] contactArray = parseDatFile(fc.getSelectedFile());
                    Document document = createXMLDocument(contactArray);
                    saveToXMLFile(
                    document,
                    new File(
                    "C:/Program Files/xxx/",// looks for directory for list
                    "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"));
                } catch (Exception exc) {
                    File f = new File("C:/Program Files/xxx/");// setting directory for list if not there
                    boolean yes = true;
                    yes = f.mkdir();// creating directory

                        Document document = createXMLDocument(contactArray);
                        saveToXMLFile(

                        new File(
                        "C:/Program Files/xxx/",// used only if the directory didn't exist
                        "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"));

Need some help with putting a folder in users directoryI recomend using System.getProperty( "user.home" ) not a hard-coded value.
This will use the users home folder ( C:\My Documents ) on Win9X (I guess), C:\Documents and Settings\<current user> on Win2K +, and ~ on Unix-a-likes.

Need some help with MDX formula

Hello, I am not finding any good documentation on MDX formulas, there is a specific one that I need some help with....could someone please elaborate what exactly does this formula mean? thanks.
(MEASURES.[SIGNEDDATA],
CLOSINGPERIOD([%TIMEDIM%].
[%TIMEBASELEVEL%]))

If new MEASURE gets added to Measure's table , in BPC Client , etools->client Options-> Refresh Dimensions should get the new measure into the CurrentView .IF not try etools->client Options-> Clear Local application information .
Formula 2 :
(MEASURES.SIGNEDDATA,
CLOSINGPERIOD(%TIMEDIM%.
%TIMEBASELEVEL%))
This formula is used to retrieve AST & LEQ account values.
If current time member is at monthlevel ,ie ClosingPeriod of 2011.FEB is the current member it self ,and would retrieve 2011.FEB value.
If Current time member is at quarter level then ClosingPeriod of 2011.Q1 is 2011.Mar ,and would retrieve 2011.MAR value.
If Current time member is at year level then ClosingPeriod of 2011.TOTAL is 2011.DEC ,and would retrieve 2011.DEC value.
Formula 1 :
MEASURES.SIGNEDDATA
Irrespective of the level of the Time , MEASURES.SIGNEDDATA would retrieve current Time member value.This formula is used to retrieve INC & EXP account values
if current time member is at month level,2011.FEB , 2011.FEB value is retrieved.
if current time member is at quarter level,2011.Q1 , 2011.Q1(JANFEBMAR) value is retrieved.
if current time member is at year level,2011.TOTAL , 2011.TOTAL(JAN,FEB,....,DEC) value is retrieved.
Hope this helps.

Error 1603: Need some help with this one
