G3 Lombard - Can't get started with anything except OS 8.6.

Hi,
I just bought a used Mac Bronze keyboard (Lombard). It was working great until i fixed it. (Yikes) By fixing it i mean I installed my software OS 9, and some other things that work on my 3400c. The Lombard didn't like that (OS 9.0) and wouldn't start. The Lombard Only boots with OS 8.6. After confirming that the CD reader was working fine. My Lombard would not start up with the OS 9 CD. (Flashing folder and question mark) Hmmmm Very strange. It also wouldn't go into SCSI hard disc mode. So I put the hard drive in my Mac 3400c and it worked fine. Hard disc mode and everything. While in Hard Disk Mode on the 3400c i put the OS 8.6 system and the finder back into the same folder and started up my Lombard. Perfect. It worked great. NOT leaving well enough alone I used the Norton disc utils on the hard drive. It fixed a few things and said it couldn't fix this last thing (i hit ok too quick to read what it couldn't fix). It also wouldn't start with the hard drive from the 3400c. (OS 9) Or even the hard drive from my Blue and white also OS 9. Any ideas?

OK i took the 8.6 system folder off the hard drive and replaced it with the 9.0 system folder.
Sorry, but I still don't understand clearly where an OS 9 System Folder came from, if you weren't able to start the Lombard with the installer disc. So which of these did you do:
Did you boot the 3400 to the installer disc, with the Lombard connected in SCSI Disk Mode, and then run the installer to install OS 9 onto the Lombard's hard drive? If so, the installation was tailored to the hardware of the 3400, because it was the host computer. That installation would be no more appropriate to boot the Lombard than the OS on the 3400's own hard drive is — and you know (now that you've tried it) that the 3400's drive doesn't boot the Lombard. In SCSI disk mode, the installer has no idea that the target disk is even part of another computer, never mind any information about the rest of that computer's hardware configuration. All it sees is the disk, and it assumes that that disk will be used to boot the host computer — exactly as if it were inside the host computer.
OR
Did you simply copy the System Folder from the installer disk (without actually running the installer) to the Lombard via SCSI Disk Mode? That wouldn't work either: the SF on an installer disk is only bootable when it resides on that disk. A copy of it moved elsewhere will rarely if ever boot any Mac.
OR
What other possibility is there? I can't think of another, but maybe you did. If so, what was it?

Can't get started with Metrowerks on Win98

I am having trouble writing anything more than a trivial program using the Metrowerks IDE on Win98. I have asked for help on the Metrowerks newsgroup but there appears to be a lack of expertise.
If I attempt to go in through the low level interface, creating the java code myself, the code compiles cleanly and creates a .jar file, but when I attempt to execute my class I get a class not found error message.
On the other hand if I try to go in through the high level interface, where the GUI creates the source code based upon my dragging and dropping components onto the screen, I lack control of exactly what is generated, and in any event the entire process craps out when I try to save the code.
I have been trying this with the 1.1.6 level of java which came with the Metrowerks compiler. I am in the process of downloading the 1.3 level.
I would appreciate it if somebody would tell me what I am supposed to do to actually compile and execute java programs in this environment, because this is creating a complete block to my learning java.

Jcobban,
What version of CodeWarrior are you using? Only version 6 and 7 will support JDK 1.3.
There should be a version of a JDK on the disk, install that one.
Let me know if you need any other help!
Cheers,
Chris

Can't Get Started With CF or DW

I'm very very new to DW 8 and CF MX7. XP Pro SP2. I got both
installed on my computer for local testing. I just can't make
anything work. I created a local server, several in fact, In DM
I've created several test servers. Nothing works. When I try to
preview a simple hello world cfm file I either get the I have to
create a testing server prompt and/or I get the open/save ie option
which opens my cfm file in notepad. or page not found.
I know I'm just being newbee stupid. Are there any idiot
proof install/setup instruction floating around?
Thanks Much
John

It sounds like you have Coldfusion set up to use its own
internal server. Here's what you can do:
1. Look for C:\CFusionMX7\wwwroot
2. Create a folder named "Test' there:
C:\CFusionMX7\wwwroot\Test\
3. Create a cfm page that says something like "Hello World"
in the body. Name the CFM Page "helloworld.cfm"
4. Open up IE Explorer and enter the following url:
http://127.0.0.1:8500/Test/helloworld.cfm
See if the page pulls up correctly

Can't get started with Airport Express; WPA2 problem?

Howdy,
I purchased an airport express about a month ago and am unable to get it set up, at all. My goal is what the setup guide calls "Using AirPort Express on an existing wireless network and stream music to powered speakers" (pg. 15 for those who have the book). The failure is that Airport Admin Utility doesn't recognize my third party wireless network.
My wireless hub is a linksys wireless-G cable gateway, and has been in use with multiple computers in the current setup for a couple years. It is setup with WPA2 personal, TKIP+AES encryption, and MAC access list enabled. SSID broadcast is currently enabled.
I am running OSX10.4.11 on the computer that I am using to attempt to configure this.
Following the instructions for "Connecting to an Existing Wireless Network" (pg 25), I am attempting to use Airport Utility. But there is no such program on my computer, so I am assuming that Airport Admin Utility is what the book refers to as Airport Utility. Airport Admin Utility presents a "window titled Select Base Station" but lists no base stations. I click "Other", provide the IP address and password, hit OK, and ... nothing happens. After 20 seconds the beachball appears, and after another 20 seconds it says "The airport admin utility was unable to read the configuration of the selected base station".
The IP address I used is the one that I enter into the web browser to access the linksys box (no secret here, 192.168.0.1). The password is the one used to access those settings (e.g., the linksys default is "admin", but I changed it). I know the IP address and password are correct, but I do not know if this is the IP address and password the program is asking for. I don't even know if I am running the correct program!
Thanks for any help,
Bob H

Actually, I have it working now.
What I did after posting my last message was I connected the AE to my wireless hub, via ethernet cable. Then Airport Utility was able to find it, initialize it, and load new firmware into it ("it" being the AE). During initialization stage I told it it would be connecting wirelessly to an existing wireless network, and I gave it the network name, security options and password.
Then I told the wireless hub to allow this device (MAC address = Airport ID), disconnected the ethernet cable, power-cycled the wireless hub, and relaunched Airport Utility. It saw the AE, so I quit that. Then I launched iTunes and selected my AE as the speakers. It told me I needed to enable iTunes Music Sharing in my firewall. After doing that, iTunes is now playing through my external speakers. Exactly what I want.
Now I just need to go set this up on my laptop, with the AE and speakers on the other side of the house where I want 'em.
As a recap, I think I basically had two problems, both related to documentation. First, the program that the Setup Guide tells me to use wasn't in my Tiger applications folder, and I was fooled by a program with a similar name (in the past I have seen such name changes between what the setup guide said I should use and what I really needed to use). Second, it wasn't clear to me that, regardless of how I wanted to configure things for usage, I needed to establish a valid wired connection to the AE to initialize it. I think that could be made clearer in the book.
Thanks for everyone's help.

Getting started with Java and XML

Hi,
Although I am pretty familiar with Java, I am a total newbie with using it to parse XML. I have been reading quite a few tutorials so am getting a good understanding of it and am thinking of using the DOM model for my purposes.
What I haven't been able to find, however, is how I can actually get started with this. I have tried compiling a few examples and have been getting errors such as:
xmltest.java package javax.xml.parsers does not exist
xmltest.java package org.w3c.dom does not existetc etc...
It looks like these packages don't come with J2SE. Can anyone confirm this? Do I need to download and install the Java Web Services Developer Pack to solve this problem?
Finally, I know I will need an XML parser but have read that JDK 1.4 has it's own parser (Crimson). Is this adequate for parsing XML files or will I also need a parser such as Xerces?
Thanks so much for any help!

Hi DrClap,
Thanks for the reply. I have JDK 1.4.1_02 installed on my server but the following error keeps coming up when I try to run my example:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/w3c/dom/NodeAre there any further packages I need to download in order to run Java with XML? I have read some people install JAXP and XERCES... are these necessary for parsing an XML document or should J2SE 1.4.1 be sufficient?
Thanks for your help!

Where can I find "Getting Started with AppleScript"?

I googled it. And it doesn't show any links from Apple. I'm trying to learn AppleScript and the Language guide says to go through the Overview first which in turn recommends going through Getting Started with AppleScript.
I even searched Mac Reference Library but it just doesn't show up!
Any help?
Neerav

No, certainly not. I mean, I don't know any AppleScript, but I can say with certainty that the answer to that question is no.
Objective-C is a programming language that is an extension of the C language. It is the language that is used to develop applications for Mac and iPhone. Other languages like C++ and Java can be used as well, but Objective-C is the language that Apple really intends for you to use for Mac and iPhone development, since it is heavily integrated with the Cocoa framework (for Mac developemt) and Cocoa Touch framework (for iPhone development). You need to know the C language to learn the Objective-C language, and you need to know the Objective-C language to work with the Cocoa or Cocoa Touch frameworks, but AppleScript is a totally separate and different animal from these things. AppleScript is a scripting language, and although it can technically be used to create applications from what I understand, it is mainly used as a mechanism for controlling applications. For example, you could use AppleScript to tell a certain application to perform a certain task everyday at a certain time. You can use it to create automated workflows and whatnot. I think that's what it's mainly meant for.
It's worth noting, however, taht there is a development environment called AppleScriptObjC. I don't really know anything about this, except that it allows for AppleScript to be used as the primary programming language.
I found a lot of this information at [Wikipedia's AppleScript page|http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AppleScript], so you might want to consider looking over it real quick -- it might be helpful. Here is the link to [Wikipedia's Objective-C page|http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Objective-c] and [Wikipedia's Cocoa page|http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cocoa_%28API%29]. As someone said on these forums, Wikipedia is far from the last word on any subject, but those links might be helpful for you for just getting an idea of what these things are all about.
Hope that helps some. Please let us know if you have any other questions.

I can't number pages starting with anything but 1.

I edit a newsletter for a non-profit using Pages in iWork. The pages have to be numbered consecutively through the year....the first issue begins with 1, the second begins with 17, etc. But I can't get the auto page numbers to start with anything but 1 and then number the rest correctly. If I click on Start With in "Section" and input, say, 49, nothing changes. If I input the numbers on each page manually, they are just as likely to change as I go. (I number the 1st 49, the second 50,...and suddenly the first now reads 50.) What am I doing wrong? Thanks.

Can not get example to work after following instructions given in "Getting Started with the NI LabVIEW C Generator" guide

We explored using sbRIO for our project, for different reasons we ended up going with a different embedded solution . We are currently evaluating the LabVIEW C Generator to convert some of the core analysis routines from LabVIEW to C so the team that will be creating the embedded solution don't have to re-implement them from scratch.
Before converting our code, I followed the instructions given in the "Getting Started with the NI LabVIEW C Generator" manual to create a static library created inCygwin using GNU Compiler Collection (GCC).
I managed to compile the code, but when I type "run GCD.exe" in the Cygwin console, I just see the window flash with no time to see if the result is correct or not. I modified the main.c cde to add a getchar(), but the window still just flashes and now I am left with the GCD process still running and have to kill it using Windows Task Manager.
Has anyone else got this example to run? I am sure I am missing an obvious setting or step, please help me.
More details below.
Thanks,
Fab
Here is a video showing the steps I followed
If you don't want/can't see the video. Here are some screenshots of what I have done so far:
GratestCommonDivisor.lvproj C Generation build specs Information:
C Function prototype definition:
I copied Makefile located at: C:\Program Files (x86)\National Instruments\LabVIEW 2011\examples\CGenerator\Tutorial\Cygwin
and replaced both Makefile and Makefile.cygwin in the directory where the C code was generated
I also copied main.c from the same location and replaced the one generated
Here is the snapshot of the results after executing "make GCD.exe"
Then to run it I just type
I see a window open and close really quickly and I never see the result. I have tried adding the getchar() line to the main.c file, but still I don't get to see the results.

Hi Kevin,
I hope you had a good Thanksgiving. I am attaching a zip file with the LabVIEW project, my build specification and my version of "Greatest Common Divisor.vi", which should be the same as the one that you have that ships with the LabVIEW C Generator, but just in case. I am also attaching a zip file with the C files generated by the LabVIEW C Generator.
You can also see the video I posted earlier with the steps I followed. I hope you are able to point out where I went wrong.
Thanks,

I upgrade firefox from 7 to 8 and now when i start firefox everytime it opens "getting start with firefox" page, in options i select the option 'show a blank page" how can i resolve this issue?

i upgrade firefox from version 7 to version 8, now when i start firefox everytime it open self the "getting start with firefox" website, in the options on firefox i select the 'show a blank page' but its not working. i am using firefox on windows XP- SP2.

Try restarting Firefox, the one time page(s) after starting a new release should disappear. Actually this last time with 8.0 they did not come up for me.
If that doesn't work then bring up '''about:config''' and place the url of the page into the filter. Right-click on anything that comes up and use "Reset".
