  • How to know for sure something was made in Flash?

    If you right-click on a game of movie in a website and see a box with the bottoim line "About Adobe Flash Player..." does that necessarily mean that the content was made with Flash (Either Flash Pro, Flash Builder, FDT, Flash Develop)?
    Does it mean that the creators for sure used AS3, or could you in thery have an html5 or union project running in flash player?

    There may not be actionscript in a program per se but when it creates swf it must abide by swf rules to at least create a proper wrapper so that final outcome is perceived by the Flash plugin as something native. I will try it later but I am pretty sure it will have a lot of ActionScript code because Flash pluging is just a library of ActionScript classes from this perspective.
    Because SWF is an open source (sort of) I am sure there are tons of programs that will convert things to swfs with different level of success.
    If you are interested in other that Adobe provided compilers - you may want to start with OpenSWF forum:

  • How to know for sure that a message is finished?

    I need to know whether a message has finished processing through AIF so I can update a status. Some of our processes can take a couple of minutes to run.
    Would using the "End Date / End Time" in the COMM_IDX table work? Or, is there a better way?
    Thanks a lot!

    My full requirement is in this post:
    I need to trigger a procedure when a program ends.
    If you could take some time and read it I would really, really appreciate it.
    Thank you so much for your kind help.

  • Built-in iSight - how do you know for sure it is off?

    I have a new iMac with built-in iSight. I have been checking into security software for my iMac and came across the program called Undercover by Orbicule. One of the functions of that program is that is utilizes the built-in iSight camera to take pictures of the room/person who potentially stole your computer. So that caused me to wonder how do I know for sure my built-in iSight camera is turned off and not accessible by some program outside of my control? I know the green light comes on if I use it in iMovie or something like that, but how do I know it isn't being hacked and used without my knowledge?

    It was never free for the 3GS.
    It is if the initial sign-up is done on an iPhone 4, iPad or iPod touch 4th gen.
    From http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4436:
    After I sign up for Find My iPhone for free, can I use it on other iOS devices?
    Yes, if your devices are running iOS 4.2. For example, you can sign up for Find My iPhone for free on your iPad and use the same account information to sign in to MobileMe on your iPhone 3GS and turn on Find My iPhone.

    You need a valid payment method even for free items. If you know the payment method is valid then contact iTunes.

  • Does anyone know for sure the date that OS X Lion will be released?

    I've heard rumours about Lion being released on the 14th/9th but I would like to know if anyone knows for SURE the date and if possible, time that OS X Lion will be released?
    Thanks

    Apple hasn't announced a specific date.  Anything that you might find indicating a release date is speculation.  The good thing is that, since Lion is a download, it will be available immediately after it is announced (providing Apple's servers can handle the demand).

  • Does anyone know for sure that one can sync a Palm Z22 to Outlook on Mac?

    I am going to be getting a Mac in my office this summer, and I need a new PDA. The low-end Palm Z22 will be fine for my needs, but I must be able to sync with Outlook as that's what I must use for work. Does anyone know if I would be able to do this? If I have to have additional software and what it is?
    Thanks!

    I don't know for sure, if you have not seen this, you may want to look at it. All sorts of great conduits for palm and various mail apps. The developer is a nice fellow and helped me with a conduit for my Visor and mail app.

  • Speakers & headphone jack are dead

    I have a White MacBook, Intel-based, 2GB of RAM, 160GB of space.
    Since day 1 the headphone jack has NEVER worked, but I didn't bring it in for repairs because I was headed off for university. I figured it wasn't worth it to send off my laptop just to get the headphone jack fixed.
    A couple months ago I got fed up with OS X. It would make my fans go crazy. It wouldn't shut down (it would just do nothing- literally) unless I force quit everything but the Finder and then asked it to shut down. It would freeze every single time I opened System Preferences. iTunes would not play music- I would select a song, press play, and then it would stay at 0:00 indefinitely. Et cetera, et cetera. I could go on for years about things that OS X did to make me unhappy. Moving on.
    So I installed Windows 7 32-bit (yes, the Beta version) and I'm extremely pleased with everything that it does. It doesn't give me grief and it does everything I ask it to without question (even shutting down! Yay).
    The only thing is that now the speakers don't work. In Control Panel > Sound, it says that my speakers are enabled and working perfectly, and that the headphone jack is unplugged (it doesn't notice even when I do plug things in). The sound is at 100% and I can hear nothing. However, when the computer starts up, it does its little MacBook startup noise...
    Also, the headphone jack started to eminate this creepy red light once the speakers stopped working.
    I do realize that Windows 7 is only in the beta stages and that means it doesn't guarantee that my experience will be problem-free, but I just want to know if any of you can help me.
    Thank you!

    Great, I heard Win-7 was going to be very functional and without all of the Vista c$@p.

    Ok, your audio out has been set to "digital out" The creepy red light is in fact an optical digital output. When digital out is enabled you will have no sound.
    Open the full windows Mixer, (with all of the sliders..etc). Look for a tab or menu entry that says "Advanced". Hopefully you will find some place on the mixer to enable analog out. If you see a "digital out" option in the mixer and it's enabled (checkbox?) disable it.
    If there's no option you might check online and see if there's an audio driver upgrade.

  • Headphone Jack Appears to Be Loose

    It appears that my headphone jack is loose and this is causing me to hear static through my headphones whenever I play music. Should I call Apple and get this fixed? Am I still under warranty? I bought my iPod on 12/29/06. I actually still have the receipt to prove it. What should I do?

    your warranty is good for a year, so you are fine. I would call Apple.

  • I'm trying to load up webpages and am getting the error "URL not valid" but it's on sites and URLs that i know for sure are. Like when I click a link it'll do that but I'll close the notification box and click the link again and it'll load.

    I'll pretty much just get a message that says something like google.com is invalid when I know it for sure it. Even if I just click on a link on like Gizmodo or something, I'll get that message. I'll close the message and then I'll click the link again and it would actually load up now.
