Hang when using UIManager.getSystemLookAndFeelClassName() and JFileChooser

i encountered this wierd problem when i used UIManager.getSystemLookAndFeelClassName() and JFileChooser on a machine with win2002 (no service pack installed) and on another machine with winxp (no service pack installed). the code works perfectly fine with other pc but apparently our client did something to make it hang whenever either of these were called. i was just wondering how this can happen since its no longer a code problem but rather betwen java and windows. our program runs on java 1.4.x.
for more info about this problem here's a simple test program that doesnt work on the said machines:
=== code start ===
import java.io.File;
import javax.swing.JFileChooser;
import javax.swing.UIManager;
public class Test {
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
// this portion works fine. this is to prove that there is no problem with IO on java
File file = new File(".");
String files[] = file.list();
System.out.println(file.getAbsolutePath());
for(int i=0;i<files.length;i++)
System.out.println(files);
// program hangs on this part. see thread dump of JFileChooser below
System.out.println("init JFileChooser");
JFileChooser fileChooser = new JFileChooser ();
// when code above is commented out, program also hangs on this part. see thread dump of UIManager below
System.out.println("init UILookAndFeel");
UIManager.setLookAndFeel(UIManager.getSystemLookAndFeelClassName());
System.out.println("done");
=== code end ===

WLS 8.1 hanging when using XA

I am having an issue with BEA 8.1 hanging when using XA. I have configured it
on several other Windows 2000 machines and not seen an issue. This particular

Running Windows XP (even fully patched up with SP3 and latest fixes), you probably will have an increasing risk of Windows and IE being attacked. Windows XP has been getting security patches every month for over a decade. So it seems likely that people will continue to discover vulnerabilities in Windows XP that, over time, will be exploited (i.e., used in attacks).
Windows 8.1? For a good experience, you probably would be better off getting a new computer than installing 8.1 on a system that is several years old. I realize not everyone's budget permits.
What else can you do? It remains useful and important to keep your third party applications, such as Firefox, and your browser add-ons, such as Flash, up-to-date. It's also a good idea to run quality security software. And practice safe browsing habits like avoiding questionable websites and peer-to-peer networking, and being suspicious of email attachments.

LabView (8.2) hangs when using I/O operations with traditional NI-DAQ 7.4.4 after aborting LabView program

Hello!
We have the following problem:
LabView (8.2) hangs when using I/O operations with traditional NI-DAQ 7.4.4 after aborting LabView program
We freshly installed LabView 8.2 (2006) and NI-DAQ 7.4.4 on a PC running Windows XP (Service Pack 3). We built a larger vi that remotely controls a traditional NI-DAQ card (AT-AO-10) on a second PC via NI-VISA 5.0.3. We were successfully running this program until a power failure caused the first computer to crash. After this crash we were unable to start the program again: LabView freezes while loading the vi. LabView itself can be started but freezes when adding I/O operations from the NI-DAQ palette to a block diagram.
We have tried to re-install NI-DAQ 7.4.4, but it did not help. We then re-installed all NI software, but still no improvement. In the end we decided to reinstall ALL software, first Windows XP, then LabView and finally NI-DAQ 7.4.4. This worked. However, after a few days of running the program we had to abort LabView via Windows Task manager and afterward we again experienced the same problem as before: LabView freezes when loading the program.
Obviously, we cannot afford to reinstall Windows every time. Are there any known Windows XP / NI-DAQ issues that might cause the freezing of LabView? We would be very grateful for any idea.
Best regards,
Matthias

Hello Sprice,
Browse the shipping examples according to “Directory Structure” and then select
DAQ to find the Traditional DAQ examples.
There a lot of examples that are written for counters (Counter >>
daq-stc.llb >> Count Edges (DAQ-STC).vi).
What kind of signals are your photons creating? Are they TTL compatible at a certain
frequency? You don’t care about overwriting
your buffer?

If no, install the SP1 and follow with instruction below
If yes, try this;
Start the msconfig and disable the Windows messenger and chicony webcam from automatic loading.
Just remove the ticks and save the settings.
Reboot the notebook and check if you can use the webcam together with the messenger.

After I installed the recent Apple security patch, I can no longer save PDFs when using Safari. And Firefox no longer can open website PDFs. Any suggestions?

If the previous Safari suggestion doesn't work try the following:
In Finder, go to Macintosh HD/Library/Internet Plug-ins and move AdobePDFViewerNPAPI.plugin to the Disabled Plug-ins Folder. Restart Safari. If this works you may just want to delete that FUBAR plug-in.
Thanks. This was the solution for me.

In Firefox 3.6.10 I was able to go forward and backwards between pages without the page defaulting to the top of the page. Is there any way to prevent the page from automatically moving to the top when using the forwards and back buttons in Firefox Four?

I like to be able to navigate backwards and forwards without having to scroll down and find where I was previously. In Firefox Four, when using the forwards and back buttons, the page will automatically return to the top of the page. Is there any way to change this setting in Firefox Four to prevent it from doing that?

Thanks for the response. No Time Machine, but I probably have a backup from a few months ago on an external hard drive. :/ I guess it'd have useful history, but not if it overwrote the last 3 months or so of Awesome Bar, that might not be so great.

Performance issues when using Smart View and Excel 2010

Hello, we are experiencing very slow retrieval times when using Smart View and Excel 2010. Currently on v.11.1.3.00 and moved over from Excel 2003 in the last quarter. The same spreadsheets in 2010 (recreated) are running much slower than they used to in 2003 and I was wondering if anyone else out there has experienced similar problems?
It looks like there is some background caching going on as when you copy and paste the contents into a new file and retrieve it is better.....initially. The size of the files are generally less than 2mb and there aren't an expecially large number of subcubes requested so I am at a loss to explain or alleviate the issues.
Any advice / tips on how to optimise the performance would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Nick

Hi Nick,
Office 2010 (32 bit) only is supported.

Panel contents overlap when using borderSkin style and layout=absolute

This problem has been reported on several occasions

Hi Andres, I haven't tried to verify your fix, but would you be willing to fill out a contributor agreement and submit an official patch?

"Could not complete scan" error when using Windows Fax and Scan

"Could not complete scan" error when using Windows Fax and Scan with a HP OfficeJet Pro 8600 Plus All-In-One network printer.
Printing is fine.
When using the HP Scan application, get the error "Scanner communication cannot be established".
When scanning from the printer itself it fails with the same message. In addition the printer panel displays the error:
"The scan could not be completed due to one or more of the following issues:
Connection to the computer is lost
The scanner is in use
OCR application is not installed"
My PC is a HP Compaq Pro 6300 SFF 64bit, with ethernet cable to the router and ethernet cable to the printer
Originally ran Windows 8.0; recently upgraded to Windows 8.1.
Older separate Netgear router and modem was replaced with a newer Netgear Router/Modem, but both experienced the same problem.
There was no problem with the original Windows 8.0 configuration and only after upgrading to 8.1 did the problem emerge.
On my home netowrk I have an HP ProBook 6550b running Windows 7 sp1 that uses wireless to get to the Router, and it has no problem with scanning.
I have followed the recommendations of a number of articles relating to this issue (including: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?cc=us&lc=en&docname=c02915410&product=4323659#N94), but there has been no change in behaviour.
The printer has a static IP address;
Power settings have been adjusted to Never for Turn off Hard Disk; Sleep and Hybrid Sleep.
Scanning has been tested with all firewalls and antivirus turned off and in Selective Startup.
The printer has been plugged directly into the power socket.
With all these settings the Windows 8.1 cannot scan while the Windows 7 laptop with wireless to the router has no problems.
Appreciate any insights into this problem.
I can only surmise that the problem is a compatibility problem between the 8600 Printer and Windows 8.1.
Any ideas?
regards,
Motorbike

You can determine if there is compatiblity between the printer and PC by checking the Windows 8.1 hardware compatibility list. I have done that and it is shown to be fully compatible. If the driver you installed before was only the basic driver,it would explain the lack of scan and copy functionality.
Download and install the Windows 8.1 full feature driver and software on the HP Compaq Pro 6300 SFF 64bit PC .

Try resetting >
Hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home button down at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
If that doesn't help, try restoring > Backing up, updating, and restoring your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch software

If i dont use the display when using the GPS and only listen to the voice instructions can that also makes the iphone overheat even if you dont use the display

because when i use the gps app in my iphone 4s in the car my iphone gets overheat so
if i dont use the display when using the GPS and only listen to the voice instructions can that also makes the iphone overheat even if you dont use the display
will that help?

When you use your GPS does your iPhone get hot enough to shutdown? The reason I ask is that I have run my GPS app with the screen brightness set to near max connected to power for hours. My iPhone got hot, but didn't shutdown.

Hang when using UIManager.getSystemLookAndFeelClassName() and JFileChooser
