Guarantees about atomic access in the ISR
Hi,
I have a global variable "x" in my DDK kernel-mode continuous data acquisition driver that I access several times in my ISR. In my particular case this is a fixed-size buffer in kernel space that I store read data in. I would like the access to that variable to be atomic in the ISR. Do you have suggestions how this can happen? I am thinking of three ways, but I have doubts about each:
1) Disable other interrupts from my device (at same DIRQL).
A. What happens if a higher-priority interrupt writes to "x"? Is this something I cannot avoid?
B. Is it true that another device wired to memory directly can write to this location?
2) Delay hardware writing to "x" (such as a DMA transfer running at the same time as the ISR).
A. Is this a scenario and a option?
3) Copy "x" to a temporary "y" in the beginning of the ISR.
A. Is this really a solution? In my opinion this might be expensive for a big buffer and someone can write to parts of it while I am copying.
Thanks.
I have found the answer to this question. Thank you.

I am trying to update my itunes and iphone. Everytime I trie comes out a message about 'key access'. I've done all the steps from the support and nothing worked out. I cannot unistall and now I can't open it anymore also. What should i do, please?
Isn't that only used when a PC will not boot?
What options does booting with this give me?
Thanks

Hi,
USB recovery disk was used to recover your system when it encounter problem. You can try to use it to fix your problem instead reinstall system. However, there is no method to keep your program whenreinstall system.

Great, first post, sorry for the title. But to repeat it:
I'm modifying someone else's website for the first time (noob = yes). I only have ftp access to the site server. Before uploading changes, is there a easy/quick/recommended/etc way to make a copy of the files I'm about to replace?You can use the Dreamweaver FTP (or a different FTP client) to completely copy the original website to your development computer, then, before making changes, you can copy the whole thing to a directory called something like "website original"
If you want to run both the old and new sites on the remote server, this is often possible. Add a folder/directory to the server and call it something like "new" and upload the new files there until you are ready to replace the old site
All of this you can do with FTP -

Is it possible to access to the path property of a shape layer by AEGP API?
Hi everyone! I recently started depeloping AE plug-in and trying to access to the path of shapes on the layer from AEGP API. Sorry in advance if my question has been already asked by someone before, but I couldn't find exact answer to my question so let me ask.
In a composition, I have a shape layer and the shape layer has a vector shape depicted by the pen tool. The constitution of the layer looks like below.
Apparently, those streams of the layer like Anchor Point, Position, and Scale can be accessed by AEGP_GetNewLayerStream. However, I have no idea how I can get the pointer to the Shape 1 and get the Path from it because the these valuse are not categolized into any AEGP_LayerStream types.
Very similar question was asked in the following link and the it was advised to use MaskOutlineSuite, PathQuerySuite, and PathDataSuite, although these suites are for making effect plugins, not for AEGP plugins, so I am not sure if they can be used here.
http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1068528
So would someone kindly enlighten me about this??
Thank you very much.hi hagmas! welcome to the forum, where there are plenty of existing answers
but never for exactly what you seek.
first off, every suite who's functions name start with AEGP, were actually
created for AEGP's plug-ins use, but most of them (including the suites you
mentioned) can also be used in effects. (and not as you thought, the other
way around)
the shape layer's stream indeed are not indexed, and that's because then
are added dynamically by the user and can be re-ordered.
look into the "dynamic stream suite", using which, you'll get the first
stream of the shape layer, and start navigating though there by getting the
stream name, type, parent group ect...
you'll eventually find the "content" group, and in it the "shape" groups,
and in them the... you get the picture.
yes, it's somewhat tedious, but since nothing in these gourps order is
pre-determined or guaranteed, there's no other way to go (that i know of). -
How do I delete an iCloud account from my iPad that I no longer know the password for and have no access to the email account to change it?
You will need the password. If you can't get it reset via http://iforgot.apple.com (if you remember the answers to the account's security questions then you should be able to reset it via them) then try contacting Support in your country, they should be able to reset it.
Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT569
If your country isn't on that page then try this form and explain and see what they reply with : https://ssl.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html -

I have denied all access to the hard drive on my i mac what can i do to be able to use it again
I have denied all acess to the hard drive on my Imac I purchased a refurbished imac about 6 months ago and im still not really familiar with every thing as i used to use a windows computer so ill try my best to describe what i have done. On the desk top it had a hard drive icon I open it. There was a section about allowing access. There were three different ones (now Im not exactly sure but i believe it looked something like this
System Read and Write
Read only
Write to drop box
User
Read and Write
Read only
Write to drop box
Shared Read only
deny access
I then changed the bottom one to deny access, the middle one to write to drop box and then the top one to write to drop box ( I quickly realized how stupid this was) It then wouldn't let me do or open anything. I ended up turning it off by pressing the button on the back of the I MAC. When I turned it back on it asked for my password which i entered, then it went to the screen with the apple in the center and the loading icon underneath and has not changed.
What can i do so i can use it again?
I think it was OS 9.5.? I dont really know and cant even access this info anymorein the folders on the left your will have your mail account and local folders.
Anything in local folders is stored only on your local hard disk.
* Right click the mail account. Select settings
* Select copies and folders for your university account
* Click archive options and select the type of structure you want the archive in. (keep existing folder structure would be important to you think)
* in the copies and folders, change the archive folder to other and select the archive folder for local folders (the local folders account entry in the list will expand if you hover the mouse over it)
Now some other points. ''
* Holding shift while clicking select everything in the list between clicks. Holding Ctrl while clicking will hold the selections and allow other entries to be toggles on and off by clicking them.
* Ctrl+A will select the entire list
Finally''
Pressing the A key when mail is selected archives it. -
A family member recently downloaded an iBook on my device using their apple I'd. Now I don't have access to the material I've purchased using my apple I'd for 90 days! So frustrated! Any tips? ITunes won't allow me to download the books I've paid for!!
That wasn't something that I was aware of, but looking at this http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4627 I'm not sure that there is much you can do about the device itself. I'm also not sure whether it only affects downloading directly on the device itself or whether you can connect the iPad to your computer and sync content across to it from your account that way - or even whether restoring back to factory defaults on the iPad will bypass the 90 days

My grandson's school needs him to have his own email address. For some reason, his is not able to use my address. I do not want him to have general access to the internet. His older brother caused my computer to be infected with a virus in a very short time. It took three weeks and one hundred dollars to get the use of my computer back.
I do not want him to have access to the internet, but his school wants him to have an email address to communicate with him about school work. I am concerned that once he has an email address, someone (not the school) will send him a web site address in a message and he will be able to just click on it to get into the internet.You can use an email program (e.g. Outlook Express or Windows Live or Thunderbird) and disable HTML for that email (text only mode) to access the email account. You can create a new email account if your your ISP supports it or use a online service that allows POP3 access with an email program (most popular services allow that).

How can I migrate data from an old MBA to a new one without having access to the screen of the old one? The screen of the old MBA is damaged !
If your "older" MBA has a Thunderbolt port then it isn't that old. See Target Disk Mode about how it's used. Note that without a monitor you won't be able to tell from the screen when it has fully started, and if it succeeded in starting in TDM. If it did, then the hard drive should appear on the Desktop of your new computer. You can then access it to transfer your files. You can even use Migration Assistant or any backup utility to transfer data. Just don't try to transfer system files.

I have been using firefox for years. I downloaded the latest version and at the conclusion of the down load I was refussed access to the internet. Something about Proxy???? I checked my firewalls and security and they said that mozilla was allowed but everytime I attempt to gain access I am refused. I cant access the internet and I cant download another program to access the internet. I uninstalled Firefox and attempted to reinstall but after uninstalling Firefox I have no means to reinstall because there are no traces of it on my computer and I no longer have access to the internet. What do I do? I cant access my e mails, stored messages, favorites etc etc.
No. After I select "Choose" the dialog box expands to provide only three choices. This is a new bug. I have only seen it in the past week or so, but it is maddening. I have observed that, while the Mozilla Foundation focuses on trivialities like which search engine should be the default, the Firefox application becomes buggier and buggier. Most of my family has switched to Chrome, and I will be following shortly. Firefox used to be a great program. Not any more. Getting assistance with a problem has also become very difficult.
