Getting NSWindow from WindowNumber (not owned by my NSApplication instance)

Hi,
I'm trying to get an NSWindow of a 3rd party app.
I found a method called : [NSApp windowWithWindowNumber: 0L] ; which does exactly what I want, but it returns nil for Other Apps.
Alternatively can I get an instance of NSApplication that is owned by the system?
Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks!
Al

Is there another way to move an external processes window? SizeUp is doing it somehow..
Thanks

  • Imessage gets email from account not associated with it.

    iMessage gets email from my exchange email account I do not want.  This is not my apple id, nor is it associated with my imessage or facetime.  Nothing stops the problem. There has never been any email associated with my imessage account.  I added then deleted my apple id association from the iphone iMessage account leaving nothing but the phone number.  Turned off phone and restarted.  No help.
    I have upgraded to ios 6.  It happened it both operating systems and has gone on since I bought the phone 1 year ago.
    There are 5 email accounts including the culprit exchange account on my iPhone.  Only the exchange account ends up in iMessage.
    I deleted the Exchange email account, then restarted the phone, then left it for 4 hours.  Restarted the phone.  Readded the exchange account.  It stayed clean for 1 hour then the flood of exchange email started.
    Even with iMessage turned off the email arrives as a text as if by magic.  I checked my bill and the email "is still being sent by iMessage, even when its off!", as there is no sms charge as should be when iMessage is turned off.
    This application has gone rogue on me and no one else I know has this problem.  My work email is exchange and I get over 100 a day.  Its a flood.  Plus text messages must be deleted one at a time!
    How do I stop the monster. 
    Help. 

    I did not lose my contacts but my carrier support could not confirm prior to executing the above steps.
    I believe the reason your carrier is handing off to Blackberry on this is because the Blackberry ID is managed by Blackberry, not the carrier (I am not 100% on this). As such, they can't authenticate the BBID. That can be handled directly by the user here: http://ca.blackberry.com/bbid.html. Permission issues are always a pain.
    IF BBM won't behave following the solution that worked for me, I would call your carrier one more time and ask them to escalate the service tag to Blackberry. Without the service tag, its tough to get action. This allows the carrier to hand you off and creates the support trail needed for effective resolution. Push to get the service tag.
    In my experience on this, there was enough "grey area" for all support techs involved that Blackberry would be well suited to increase the knowledge base/training/support  to provide a smoother resolution. When support tells the user that the main messaging platform, for the top end device, won't function and "there is nothing we can do about it", I believe the user has not been serviced appropriately.

  • Can I control which sites Firefox does 'get's from or not?

    So many websites you visit put either a 1px by 1px "image" or iframe in the code Firefox reads. Firefox is designed to fetch or execute a 'get' command for each image tag it sees, whether the image is at the same host as the website or somewhere around the world from it. These one pixel 'images' and iframes are of course not meant to be noticed. Their purpose is to force a browser go and 'get' them. That URL then puts a cookie or other junk on your computer to do other sorts of snooping, like recording where you've browsed earlier to discover what your buying 'weaknesses' are, where you live and who knows what else..
    I have Firebug so I can see all this crap on pages, but I don't know enough to design my own browser controls with it. I know Firefox has an add on, but it only works if the site you're on is courteous enough to comply with your wishes. I for one, don't trust anyone when it comes to making big bucks. For instance I detest Microsoft's service for advertisers, http://s0.2mdn(dot)net.
    And this is just one of hundreds of such services growing every day.
    I'm on an iMac using X.6.8... about to update to (Lion).
    I love my browser. Firefox v. 7.0.1 for Mac

  • Is it possible for me to change the email I get notifications from but not my Apple ID?

    My Apple ID and primary email address are the same one. I tried changing it but that meant changing my Apple ID, and I don't want to do that. Basically I want to keep my Apple ID the same, but I want the email that's currently my Alternate Email to be my primary email. But not my Apple ID. Does that make sense? Can I do that???
    Thanks!!!

    You may have to get a third email address to swap around your email addresses. Try goggle. 

  • Im getting texts from some of my contacts that no longer show their name but come across with  1 followed by the phone number.

    after updating my iphone 5 c to the latest iOS version, i am getting texts from some (not all) of my contacts that no longer display the name but only +1 followed buy the phone number. Is there something that needs to be adjusted in the settings to fix ths problem?

    Open your contact list and swipe down from the top. You can filter your contact list by account. Anything not in any of the listed contact types is a local contact. It would help if we could narrow down where the contacts were stored previously vs. where they are stored now.

    Did you actually watch the movie? You get 30 days in which to view it and if you didn't watch it, that could be why you are getting that message. If you have watched the movie and you're sure that is has expired by now, contact iTunes Store Support and seek their help.
    Change the country in the upper left. - and click on Purchases, billing and redemption to proceed.

    I purchased keynote, numbers, and pages when i bought my macbook air in late september. the december update will not load because it says i do not own the software and returns an error messgae 100. i have read manuals and looked over the web but i cannot figure out how to get this software update to identify that i do own these three pieces of software. they are installed and usable. any ideas would be appreciated before i call apple support.
    This is my first mac so i am still learning...
    thanks

    First, make sure you are logged into the App Store with the same AppleID that you used to purchase the apps.
    If that is not it, look in the App Store under Purchases. Are they there?
    If not, go into your account in App Store and click the link to show hidden purchases.
    If they are still not there, use the support link in the App Store.
    If they do show up, copy all the apps to an external drive, then remove them from your Mac. Go to the App Store, Purchases, and install from there.

  • SWF-file not getting info from UI

    Hi All,
    I have a dialog that loads a flash-file. This swf-file gets info from my dialog and puts it in a datagrid.
    It works well, untill i try it the script on an other computer. The swf-file loads but is not receiving any information given through the UI.
    Is it a matter of installing extra options/software on the other pc?
    My computer (the script works) is a Windows XP with Adobe Design Premium.
    The other computer is also a Windows XP with indesign and flash player installed.
    Is there anyone who has an idea?
    THANKS
    Greetz,
    Glen

    Ok, i have the answer to my own question.
    I forgot that i had to change the settings in the settings manager of the flash player.

    You may have to do this several times.
    Saw this solution on another post about an iPad in a school environment. Might work on your iPad so you won't lose everything.

    ‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
    Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
    I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
    Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
    1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
    2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
    3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
    4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
    5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
    6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
    7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
    8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just canceling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
    If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.

  • HT2404 When I try to download free updates for apps, I've suddenly started getting an error message saying: You cannot update this software since you have not owned the major version of this software." But I do own the apps. And I haven't changed my ID

    When I try to download free updates for apps, I've suddenly started getting an error message saying "You cannot update this software since you have not owned the major version of this software".
    But I HAVE owned the software, for ages. (And, in any case, the apps in question are all free.)
    And I don't have multiple Apple IDs.
    What can I do?
    Any advice much appreciated

    This can occur if you bought the machine used and iLife was reinstalled with another AppleID.
    This also can occur if the "free apps" you downloaded have paid upgraded versions and/or are now payware and you can't get updates.
    All software from MAS is copy protected, it might be free as in "no charge" but it's not free in the sense you can share it with others.

  • When I use Thunderbird with Yahoo Groups, Google groups, and other email lists, I don't get a copy of my own emails back from the list (I do with Mail.app)...?

    When I use Thunderbird with Yahoo Groups, Google groups, and other email lists, I don't get a copy of my own emails back from the list. I *do* when I use Mail, so it seems like a Thunderbird thing. I'd really like to see my own emails come back to me in the conversation so that I know where my remarks fall in the discussion; it's very disorienting when you can't tell if your email has arrived at the list, or not. I can't seem to find the setting, and I've searched thru your help topics, etc., to no avail. Thanks.

    It's both gmail and mac.com email accounts, and it's all email lists -- including some privately hosted on servers, that are not Google groups, not Yahoo groups.
    I'm not sure what you mean by "saving a copy of your messages yourself" in Mail -- if I email to the lists with Mail on my laptop or iPad, I can see it on my desktop computer too, right in line with other email messages in the thread, after the list resends the message I've submitted. It's only Thunderbird that this "invisible posts" behavior happens, and it didn't use to happen this way. I used to get my emails posting right in the thread.

  • HT1918 I recently was unable to watch a movie I purchased & paid for because my credit card was out of date. Surely you cannot take access to items I have purchased away from me if I do not own a credit card?

    I recently was unable to watch a movie I purchased & paid for because my credit card was out of date. Surely you cannot take access to items I have purchased away from me if I do not own a credit card? Does this mean that I will no longer be able to view purchases if I decide to cancel my credit card. If this is the case, I will not be purchasing movies from iTunes again

    We are fellow users here on these forums, you're not talking to iTunes Support nor Apple.
    If you have a credit card on your account then it will need to be valid. If you don't have a card to replace it with then have you tried removing it from your account ? On your computer's iTunes you should be able to edit your payment info by going into the Store > View Account menu option and logging into your account, and on your account's details page there should be a payment link.
    Changing payment info : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1918
    If you don't get the 'none' option on the payment details screen then do you owe iTunes anything or have any pre-orders/subscriptions due : http://support.apple.com/kb/TS5366 ?
