Forms behavior differences switching from JInit to Sun's Plug-in?

What differences are there in Forms behavior after switching from JInit v 1.3.1.26 to Sun's 1.4.2_06 plugin?
We are running Oracle Forms v 10.1.2.2.0, Internet Application Server v 10.1.2, and IE 7.
Thanks
KenV

The biggest differences I have seen has to do with fonts and space between lines.
If you have a tightly built form where prompts and items are close together, they might be aligned slightly differently.
Prompts for column headings that may be on two lines might have more space or less space between the two lines.
In LOVs, the lines are farther apart or closer together.
Same goes for fields where word wrap is allowed (where text in the item displays on more than one line).

Switching from MSJVM to Sun Virtual machine

I am a developer who wants to switch from the old MSJVM to the Sun virtual machine, I wanted to know what are the differences between them?
What does one has more than the other?(besides support).
Also i have heard that my software might not be totally compatible with the Sun's JVM. I have compiledin 1.3
Thank you.

If in Java code written for MSJVM you do not use MS Java specific classes then you can compile your code with any SUN Java compiler. MS Java is the same as SUN Java ver.1.1.
While writing Java code MSJava I used pure AWT classes instread of MS specific GUI classes. Then this code I recompiled with SUN Java without changes.

Creating PDF forms in Frame (switch from Word?)

Here's another "can I switch from Word" question. I am an old (5.5) Frame ACE now in a new job where we use Word. Frame would be a much better choice in many ways, for many reasons.
I could use some help figuring out whether Frame creates forms that convert easily to PDF. As an end product, what we need is a PDF form with a large number of fixed-length text fields; users must be able to download the form and fill it in at their leisure, either all at once or in stages, saving their work as they go.
These files are currently constructed in Word out of tables. They are a terrible mess and must be recreated from scratch. If Frame handles forms well, we can start that work fresh in Frame and dump Word completely. (This is a question I could answer for myself in a few minutes if I could download a trial. Bad timing.)
Can somebody with a current copy of Frame tell me how it handles forms and whether it's possible to use Frame to create PDF forms with plenty of fixed-length text fields, some of them quite long?
Your help is much appreciated. Thank you!
V. B. Beck

Thank you, Sheila.
Users are most likely to simply have Adobe Reader.
Sorry to be asking for so much help--it is rather maddening not to be able to download the trial and take a quick look for myself.
Are form fields defined directly within Frame, or is it necessary to hack the PDF? If within Frame, how is length of input defined--by number of characters? Or, as with LiveCycle Designer, can you "limit length to visible area"?
Thanks as always and in advance for the help.

Weird behavior when switching from windows to mac

I encountered a very strange behavior that I thought all of you should be aware of, and maybe one of you has an answer for me.
Let me begin by saying I have a MacBook Pro with a 24GB windows partition.
I was working in windows and I restarted to go into mac. The typical mac login window then appeared and I typed in my password as usual. Once my desktop, menu bar, and dock came up, the dock and menu bar disappeared almost immediately, and then it would go back to the mac login window. It would repeatedly do this no matter how many times I logged in.
By the way, it might be important to add that I only had about 12-15% battery remaining.
Anybody know what's happening here?
If not, maybe I should notify apple?
Thanks a lot
p.s. I didn't know if this was a problem with MacBook Pro or boot camp, so I posted it in both forums. So don't get all upset about that like some of you sometimes do.

OK now I plugged in and switched back to mac and it is working properly...
I think this is a weird problem...

Strange Behavior when Switching from/to Library

Some annoying behavior has presented itself in my copy of iTunes. It didn't used to work this way but now when I've made a selection in my Library (say an band or a particular album), click play, then switch to some other source (say the Music Store), then switch back...my entire Library is shown...not the selection I had just made.
So instead of being in Genre (All), Artist (Galaxie 500), Album (All), for example, iTunes switches me back to Genre (All), Artist (All), Album (All).
This is really annoying and only started happening a month or two ago.
Any ideas?

Thank you for the swift replies.
After Bill asked about the ID Query, I decided to try a few things that I had already gone over just to double check. I was suspspicious that timing was the source of the error. Using a timed while loop, I set the wait time to 10 seconds and got results. As it turns out, 5 seconds is not long enough, but 8 seconds is a sufficient wait time for the program to work. With the problem solved, I am still mystified as to why waiting 8 seconds is required.
I think that the oscilloscope must be given sufficient time to display the signal on-screen before the Start Aquistion or Get Waveform functions are used. With this logic in mind, the breakpoints were acting as a sort of wait, allowing the signal to be displayed before continuing through the program.
In response to Jeff, I am indeed using an external direct trigger. The hardware is sound, but apparently, my coding could use some work.
I have attached the modified code. I am certain that there is a more elegant solution to the timing than simply slapping a timed while loop on the code. Any suggestions?

Sun Java Plug-in with Developer forms 10.1.2.0.2

Someone ask me (here at my work) if we can switch between JInitiator to Sun Java Plug-in.
I am not sure about Sun Java Plug-in implementation or even more, I don't have any documentation about it.
Is these possible?
We can use our web application through the internet using Sun Java Plug-in instead of JInitiator?
How can I setup to do that?
thanks a lot.

HI people:
I have a wear behavior in my web application using Java Plug-in.
Let me put my environment straight:
1. iDS 10g Rel. 10.1.2.x
2. OC4J Enbedded on iDS
3. Webutil 1.0.6
Problem:
I can test one module at time, and they works just fine, without any problem or error or bad behavior.
But, if I access my complete application, which has menu, modules, reports, etc. It has some wear and strange behavior. If I try to move to any item on any module with the mouse it can be possible.
I don't really know which are the problem with this behaivor but these issues occur as soon as I connect to the application. The main module is a log in screen. It works fin, let me move with the mouse or with the keyboard. But after write the user, password and string info and press the connect button, the behavior change.
It doesn't matter which module I access, I can't move or use my mouse to execute any operation on any module.
The only moves I can do is press the button bar or the menu options associated with the main module.
Does anybody has an idea of these wear behavior.
I need help ASAP.
Thanks in advanced.

Unfortunately there is little you can do, Lion will not run on your machine.
However it is possible to access some features of iClould while staying with SL. If you go to iCloud you will see the web interface for the cloud.
Some but not all functionality is here. Check it out and see if it meets your needs.

Windows Explorer hangs when I switch from InDesign CC to my desktop. Also weird mouse behavior.

I am using a brand new computer running Windows 7 64-bit.
I am also using Adobe CC for the first time. Downloaded InDesign, Photoshop, Illustrator, and Acrobat last week, and I'm using mostly InDesign so far.
My issue: When I switch from InDesign to, say, check my Outlook in box, sometimes I can't click on anything at all, including "Show Desktop." I am only able to get functionality back by doing a Ctrl-Alt-Del and then cancelling the Task Manager when it appears. Then the mouse forgets that I mouse left-handed, for a few seconds. After that, everything works right.
Anyone else see this issue?
System specs:
Processor: AMD FX 8350 8-core 4.00 GHz
RAM 8 MB
Windows 7 Professional SP1
64-bit OS
Dedicated graphics card with 1 GB memory

RT does work, but the exact same description as the original post is what I observe.
Specifically:
0. using Surface (original) RT
1. added RWW site to Compatibility Mode
2. added RWW to trusted sites
3. installed self-signed cert
then can:
a. log into RWW
b. connect to server desktop - choose server
c. get IE 32-bit only error - click ok
d. get prompted for connection settings
e. get vbscript error
f. back at connect to server desktop screen - choose server again
g. get IE 32-bit only error - click OK
h. get prompted for connection settings
i. get username/password/domain login screen
j. successfully login
I was glad to find this post, because I just figured it didn't work the first time I tried it, and never tried twice in a row. Nice to know I can use my Surface to remote in using RWW when needed.

Painless switch from PC to MAC

As many people do so, i will be making the switch from PC to MAC in 2009.
Since i want to do this as painless as possible, i want to be prepared as good as possible. I already found some information about licensing but i'm also much concerned about the technical issues.
- Creative Suite CS2 / Photoshop CS3 : can i take all my actions, custom settings, brushes etc to the other side? All compatible. Concerning third-party plugins i know i will have to contact them seperately
Working a lot in Indesign and Illustrator, i expect to have many Font issues. Any advice on this?
- Lightroom: i have 5 collections and some 100,000 photos in DNG, JPEG and PSD format on 3 different (internal and external) drives. I backup on another external drive. I'm concerned making the switch, Lightroom's database will either not be compatible or will not take along all settings (presets, keywords, sets, etc).
- color consistency / calibration. I know the colors displayed on my current monitor are correct. Can I expect differences when displaying my photos on a mac?
Anything else I have to think about? I don't want to lose years of work neither spend weeks switching from one platform to the other. Any advice is really welcome.

Mr. Isaacs,
Please note this definition of the word misinformation:
"False or inaccurate information, esp. that which is deliberately intended to deceive..."
I am not a lawyer, and you might not be either: but when I am repeatedly given misinformation by representatives of a corporation, I must consider the possibility of fraudulent behavior. Whether or not the persons giving out the misinformation are employees or outsourced contractors is immaterial to me; the ultimate responsibility lies with Adobe's management.
Here's another example for you of misinformation. I discovered yesterday (after quite a bit of searching) that Adobe Acrobat Pro for Mac does not include the application LiveCycle Designer. However, when I looked at the product description on the Store page, I saw no mention that this is a Windows-only feature:
From http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobatpro/features/:
"Create dynamic forms
Use Adobe LiveCycle Designer, a professional form design tool included with Acrobat 9 Pro, to further customize and automate dynamic XML forms."
I have several forms that I have created for clients using LiveCycle Designer. However, now that I have a Mac, I will be unable to edit those forms in Acrobat Pro, which I purchased as part of Creative Suite. From Help files http://help.adobe.com/en_US/Acrobat/8.0/Professional/help.html?content=WS58a04a822e3e50102 bd615109794195ff-7dfd.html:
In Windows, you can use LiveCycle Designer to edit forms that were created in Acrobat, but Acrobat can’t edit form fields that have been opened and saved in LiveCycle Designer.
So now I will need to purchase a full copy of Acrobat Pro for Windows ($449.00 USD) in order to continue to use the forms that I have created for my paying clients.
Just out of curiosity, I decided to ask a sales representative about whether or not LiveCycle Designer is included in the Mac version. I clicked the Chat button on the Acrobat Pro product page, and initiated a chat with "Randy." Here's the important bit of our conversation:
"Adrienne: Just to clarify, the Mac version of Acrobat Pro 9 does have LiveCycle designer included?
Randy: Yes."
"Randy" was only too eager to take my money then and there. Of course, if I had purchased Acrobat Pro 9, and once I opened, installed, and ran the software, I would have discovered that I did not in fact have LiveCycle Designer. I could then initiate a return, which would hopefully be completed within the three-week time frame specified.
I repeatedly requested that I be given an ID for the chat, either the representative's ID or a reference number for the chat. "Randy" told me he couldn't give me any "personal information," (I did not ask for his last name, just a way to identify him) but said I could email myself a copy of the chat. I entered my email address as instructed but never received a transcript of the chat.
I can only conclude two things from this experience:
One: Adobe's management of its Customer Service and Sales departments is incompetent;
OR
Two: Adobe is deliberately trying to deceive me, the customer, with "bait and switch" tactics.
If it's the first case, then I am only too eager to stop buying products from a company that cannot manage its Support and Sales teams. If it's the second case, I must consider filing a complaint with the FTC.
Mr. Isaacs, if you were in my position, what do you think you would do?

Elements 9 Switching from Windows to Mac - two big issues

I've just started looking into the process of switching from Elements on Windows to Elements on the Mac. For the most part, the two versions appear to be quite similar in looks and functionality. There are however two major gaps (in my opinion) in functionality that really make me question whether I'll move forward with Elements on the MAC. Hopefully these are planned enhancements and I was hoping that someone would have some insight on the issue.
First, there is no EXPORT feature that I can see on the Mac version. I used this all the time on Windows(Organizer->File->Export as New File). A huge gap if one uses the product for building personal photo websites.
Second, and maybe I just missed some setting, but the SAVE behavior when you EDIT photos places both the original and Edited version of the photo in the default Save Location as indicated in the product Preferences. So what I have seen is that it takes both the originals and edited versions and moves them. Again, this seems to be a major difference from how the Windows versions handles this. Seems as if the default should be to leave the photo's where they are.
If anyone has a solution to these issues I'd appreciate the help.

First of all, I know for a fact there was another user on a Windows platform indicating Shutterfly was an option.
Secondly, right on Elements' website it indicates it is partnered with Kodak, Shutterfly and even Costco (now Costco, I think you need to buy the program right at Costco warehouse if I understand the disclaimer, which would mean a trial, downloaded or purchased anywhere else would not have Costco listed as an option). http://www.adobe.com/products/photoshop/family/partneroffers/

I know have a mobile me account and so my apple id is switched from my email address. i am trying to update my apps but it won't let me as it won't recognize my new 'ID'. how can i fix this on my iphone?

I have mobile me account now and so my apple id is switched from my email address to my mobile me address. Since I have made this change I can't update my apps. Everytime I try to sign in it won't recognize the switch. I have updated all the proper information on my iphone, however, when updating apps it still shows my apple id as my email address and not the mobile me account address. I am not sure what else to do??? I have even sync'd my iphone and tried to do it through my pc, however, it says that it can't update (nothing to update). I have ten updates sitting on my iphone apps...What to do...what to do? Very confused.

Where are you trying to log in? You should be able to change your ID at http://appleid.apple.com - can you log in there?
Before you change your ID you should log out of the iTunes Store and on any devices which are logged into iCloud. Then once you've changed it you can log back in with the new ID. (Your iCloud synced data will disappear from the device when you do this but will reappear when you sign back in - give it time).
If you are unable to sign into http://appleid.apple.com you will need to contact Support. Go to http://iforgot.apple.com and sign in with your iCloud login. A new password will be sent to your associated email address. If this doesn't work you will have to contact Support. Go to https://getsupport.apple.com . Click' See all products and services', then 'More Products and Services, then 'Apple ID', then 'Other Apple ID Topics' then 'Lost or forgotten Apple ID password'. If you have any problems with that try this form: https://www.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html

I am writing to this forum to ask for help in determining whether Aperture will satisfy my needs when I switch from Windows to MAC in the near future.

I am writing to this forum to ask for help in determining whether Aperture will satisfy my needs when I switch from Windows to MAC in the near future.
I am currently using Photoshop Elements 8 on Windows 7. After several years of use, I am self taught and adequately proficient for an amateur. What I didn't realize (until I started researching my upcoming migration on the Internet) is that I actually use PE8 for two functions: digital asset management and digital editing.
Regarding Digital Asset Management: My research leads me to understand that PE on MAC does not provide the same level of organizational capability that I am used to having on Windows, instead providing Adobe's Bridge which does not look very robust. Furthermore, iPhoto, which come on MAC will not support the hierarchical keyword tagging that I require to organize my library of photos. The two SW applications which I am thinking of switching to are either Aperture or Adobe's Lightroom. Frankly, I'm thinking that it would be smoother to stay within the Apple product line.
So the remaining question is whether Aperture will support my digital editing needs. The tweaks that I do to my photos are not very complex (no, I do not want to put people's heads on other animal bodies). But could someone who uses Aperture tell me whether It will allow me to do the following kinds of edits?:
- If I have a photo where someone's face is too shadowed, can I lighten just that person's face, and leave the rest of the photo as-is?
- if I have a photo where the background is cluttered (eg, 2 people in front of the Parthenon which is undergoing renovation), can I remove just the construction cranes?
- Can it splice together several separate photos to give a panoramic?
If, once I get Aperture, I find that it cannot enable the kinds of editing that I do, I would probably get PE11 in the future. However, if people in this forum tell me that Aperture will definitely not support the kinds of editing which I've described in the previous paragraph, I would prefer to get PE11 with my initial configuration (since someone will be helping me with my migration).
Thanks in advance for your consideration and help!

I am concerned, however, about using a non-Apple Digital Asset Manager in OSX. I would really like to avoid integration problems. Is using PE11 to import and catalog my digital photos likely to cause conflicts?
Thanks for any insight on this
Amy,
Not so much conflicts as maybe a little less seamless integration with Apple software and perhaps some third-party software providers in the Mac App Store where some programs build in direct access to iPhoto and Aperture libraries for getting images into those programs easily. Typically, there is a manual command to go to Finder (think Windows Explorer) to browse folders.
One caution to mention however, is that the organization you set-up in PE Organizer is unlikely to transfer over to either iPhoto or Aperture if you decide to change at some point.
The only real stumbling block that I see in your opening comment is that you want hierarchical keywording (Kirby or Léonie can go into the details on keywording limitations as I stay at one level). If you can work with the keywording schemes of either iPhoto or Aperture, then using PE for your external editor (either program supports setting an external editor) would probably be ideal since you know PE well. This is the idea with the Mac App Store version of PE (editor with no organizer).
Note - I use Photoshop CS6 (full version) with Aperture and it works really well. The only downside is that Aperture has to make either a TIFF or PSD file to send to an external editor so that the original file is protected by not sending it to the pixel editor. While TIFF or PSD files protect the integrity of the image information without degrading it, they are typically much larger file sizes on disk than either RAW or JPEG files. Therefore, your library size (iPhoto or Aperture) will balloon quite a bit if you send a lot of files to external editors.
One other possibility for an external editor would be a program called Pixelmator. It is pretty similar to early versions of Photoshop, but built for Mac. Other than the panoramics you want, it will do most pixel editing that PE can do. It is not an organizer, so it is built to go with either iPhoto or Aperture. It does have differences in how you complete certain procedures, so there is bit of a learning curve when you are used to doing it the Adobe way.

Auto switch from tray 1 for envelopes to tray 2 for letters on HP Officejet Pro 8500A Premium

Hi I have a HP Officejet Pro 8500A Premium e-All-in-One Printer - A910n My Operating System is XP Media Center. I haven't been able to get it to switch from one tray to the other automatically. Also it only remembers 1 type of paper at a time. I can't get it to show in Properties, Paper available, more than one type of paper. I open device settings, Form To Tray Assignment, Printer Auto Select :Letter. Tray 1 : Letter Tray 2 : Letter. Now I change Tray 1 : to Envelope #10 click apply, click ok, it closes out. I open the Properties back up & Tray 1 : is back to letter. Is there a way to get the printer to remember the it is set up with 2 Trays with 2 different types of paper ? I think the problem lies with the Printer Auto Select : But I am not sure. I would like to be able to print an address on an envelope when working in works. Without having to manually change the Tray settings. Does any one Know How to set this up ? Thanks in advance for taking the time to read this issue.
This question was solved.
View Solution.

Hi MrHope,
Make sure that the printer is set to have tray 2 as the default tray, and then try setting the paper types for each tray in the printer settings.
