Help on Some Specs-TIA

Hi all,pleased to meat you.just installed 745sis ultra with xp1800.Has AMI Bios setup.in Freq/Voltage Control setting i am lost.what to set the following....Spread Spectrum,CPU:Dram Clock Ratio.CPU FSB is set at 133 which equals 266.)

lerch,
133Mhz in the BIOS means the RAM is running at 266Mhz DDR.
Take Care,

I want to change my apple id password but I forgot the security questions please help me some using my icloud I'd and if confirmation is must so please phone number is mine please send a code please help me my apple

Welcome to the Apple community.
If you are unable to remember your password, security questions, don’t have access to your rescue address or are unable to reset your password for whatever reason, your only option is to contact AppleCare, upon speaking to an operator you should explain that your problem is related to your Apple ID, this way you will not be charged for assistance, even if you don’t have an AppleCare plan.
The operator will take you through some steps you may have already tried, however they need to be sure they have exhausted all usual approaches before trying to reset your account, so you should try to be helpful and show patience with the procedure.
The operator will need to verify they are speaking to the account holder and may ask you some questions that only the account holder could know, and you will need to answer them if the process is to proceed.
Once the operator has verified your identity they will send a message through to your device which contains an alpha numeric code, which you will need to read back to them.
Once this has been completed they will send an email to your iCloud email address after a period of 24 hours, so you should check that mail is enabled in your devices iCloud settings.
Upon receipt of the email, use the reset link provided to reset your password, after which you should be able to make the adjustments to iCloud that you wish to do.

Can anybody out there help shed some light on why no audio output using varispeed tempo only

Can anybody out there help shed some light on why no audio output using varispeed tempo only?
I am using Logic Pro 9 and finding no problems using the tempo and pitch option but when I just want to vari the tempo only I loose all output.
This includes no audio meter activity on channells.

Another worthwhile time/pitch related product is from Prosoniq. The version of Nuendo (not the latest) the University uses ships with the MPEX algorithm, which is related to to their flagship product.

I've used it a bit to create the double-time/+1 octave Les Paul & Mary Ford guitar sound for a class demo demo and thought it did a very good job.
Yes, there is a Demo.

Help with some java work ... :(

Hi, I was wondering can anyone here give me some help or show me the way with this programming assignment. This is my first week of programming in Java and is really struggling ...
I already have some very useful help from some people on here but still have no luck.
Below is what my assignment is about and what I've done so far, sorry if it's very basic but I'm trying my hardest.
You are required to write a program in Java that can store the details of three books. Their details are
Author
Shelf location
Availability
The program should give each book a unique shelf location starting from 0001. The details should be entered from the keyboard. The program should, on request, be able to print the details of each book to the screen. The program should terminate on request. The program should first ask for a preset password to be given before continuing executing any operation described above
public class Library {
public static void main(String[] args) {
String[][] books =
 { "Shelf Location", "Author ", "Book Name ", "Availability" },
{ "0001 ", "A. Smith ", "Hello World ", "1 " },
{ "0002 ", "C. Jones ", "Goodbye World ", "0 " },
{ "0003 ", "D. Wan ", "Whatever ", "5 " }
for (int i = 0; i < books.length; i++) {
 System.out.print(books[0] + " ");
for (int j = 1; j < books[i].length; j++) {
 System.out.print(books[i][j] + " ");
 System.out.println();
import java.io.*;
public class Login2
private static BufferedReader in;
private static BufferedReader keyboard;
public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException
keyboard = new BufferedReader(
new InputStreamReader(System.in));
String input;
boolean done = false;
while (!done)
System.out.print("Enter Password in UPPERCASE (QUIT to exit)");
input = keyboard.readLine();
if ((input.equals("LOGIN")) || (input.equalsIgnoreCase("QUIT")))
done =
true;
return.Library();
I was told to use cases, instances, etc ... nothing complicated is needed but it is still to much for me. I saw some examples of people's work and they only have approx 1.5 pages of code.
Thanx very much for people who reads this thread and offers me help.

Here's something to play around with (minimal error handling)

TS3938 I have a problem with the CD player plays some species, others give me this letter no longer supported PowerPC

I have a problem with the CD player plays some species, others give me this letter no longer supported PowerPC

Educational software suffers from having been written many years ago, but the financial market is not such to give the publisher much incentive to update the software.
The problem for you is that Top Notch 2 with ActiveBook was written and released by Pearson back when Macs utilized the PowerPC CPU platform. In 2006, Apple migrated the Macs to Intel CPUs, but released their Operating Systems with an invisible translation program, Rosetta, so that the user could continue to use their existing library of PowerPC applications and take time to update them as needed.
The problem arises in that Apple no longer continues to update Rosetta for inclusion in Lion and now Mountain Lion, so that your CD-ROM cannot be executed on your Lion Mac.
Since Pearson looks unlikely to rewrite and release an Intel version of Top Notch 2, you must find a workaround that will play your CD-ROM and allow you to continue utilizing your ActiveBook.
You do not indicate which model of Mac you are using. If you upgraded it to Lion from Snow Leopard, you have these workarounds:
1. Revert to Snow Leopard
2. Partition your hard drive or add an external hard drive and install Snow Leopard into it. This will allow you to "dual-boot" into Snow Leopard when you need access to run Top Notch 2. You would then have to "dual-boot" back into Lion when you needed access to those features required by Lion.
If you purchased a new Mac that came with Lion, you only have one workaround available to run Top Notch 2:
3. Install Snow Leopard (with Rosetta) into Parallels
[click on image to enlarge]
There is an easier way to run your Top Notch 2 in Parallels if cost is not a significant factor for you. You must purchase Snow Leopard Server from a third party souce, such as eBay, which when sold by Apple was $499 or more. I now see that it can be purchased on eBay for as little as $51. Parallels allows for easy installation of Snow Leopard Server into Parallels.
If cost is a factor, then use the link above the photo to follow my instructions on how to install Snow Leopard client ($19.99 from Apple) into Parallels and achieve the same result.
Lastly, you could purchase a used Mac that will allow Snow Leopard to be the boot OS X installed (wth the optional Rosetta installed). But this seems like an expensive alternative just to run one piece of software; and subject to hardware failure without notice or recourse.

Help with some fundamentals...

OK, still trying to play catchup after some years away from Java. I'm slowly getting back up to speed with the help of some of the gurus present on this site.
Here's the background: Working on examples from a Wrox book on JSP and moving to database connections. Programs compile fine but run into this NoClassDefFoundError. Here is a simple example:
public class HelloWorld
public static void main(String args[])
System.out.println("Hello World!");
Simple, heh? Compiles fine and when it is ran from the command line, this comes back:

Help with some beginner code

Hello, I am new to java and I need a bit of help with some code that I'm writing. here is the code:
import javax.swing.*;
public class Test{
 public static void main(String[] args){
 JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null,"We will now build a block with *'s","Block",1);
 String input=JOptionPane.showInputDialog(null,"Type a number: ","Number",3);
 int number=Integer.parseInt(input);
 int count=0; int count2=0;
 for(count2=0; count2<number; count2++){
 for(count=0; count<number; count++){
 System.out.print("* ");
System.exit(0);
}Now, all I need is to build a block of *'s with the number that the user inputs. With the code that I wrote I get the correct number of *'s but not in the form of a block. They just print out in a straight line. I know this is a very simple task but could someone please help me out? What do I need to modify in my code so that the *'s print out arranged as a block like so:
**********

Your code only uses the print method which prints without a carriage return/line feed. So you need to add a line of code to print a carriage return/line feed. Where? well that is your task to work out.

I need help getting some photos off a really old ipod

Ok so here it is.... My grandparents way back when gave me an ipod video, I just recently found it and realized it has photo's on it that I would like to keep. My problems are 1. I don't have the original computer I used for it 2. when I plug it in my computer thinks it's a hard drive 3. autoplay won't give me the option to import the photo's to my computer and 4. itunes doesn't seem to have an option to transfer photo's from ipods to your pictures folder.... if any one could help I'd appriciate it.

The photos you synced to your iPod through iTunes are no longer in their full resolution, but instead are scaled down thumbnails of those photos. So if you do manage to get them off your iPod, they will be quite small in size compared to the original ones you lost.
In order to get them off of your iPod, you'll need the help of some sort of 3rd party software. Here is one option. You can Google for more.

HELP FOR SOME MAIL app PROBLEMS IN MAVERICKS!

As many of you, I was having great difficulty opening Apple's Mail app in Mavericks. The type of problem I was having is this:
When trying to open Mail for the first time in Mavericks, I would get the message that the database needed to be upgraded; the process would start, but Mail would become unresponsive. The progress bar stopped in the middle and only a forced quit could close the application.
I noticed the following:
The actual files and folders in User/Library/Mail/V2, remained unchanged from the time before my attempt to open Mail, and for me no other changes were made.
I took the opportunity to move a copy of the V2 Folder to my Desktop for safekeeping. Trying to open Mail without this folder just caused the app to ask me to designate my accounts anew, which I had no intention of doing.
I then tried adding back items into the empty V2 folder. Adding back all of the mail accounts and mailboxes except for the Mail Data folder had no effect, except that a new Mail Data folder was created, and the Mail app still asked me to designate my accounts anew.
I then added back the first half of my old Mail Data folder contents and allowed the copy process to overwrite the files in the newMail Data folder; there was still a problem.
Finally, I took the remaining files and one folder from my old Mail Data folder and added that to the new Mail Data folder. When I was asked to relpace matching folders and files I did that and whatever was left untouched by the file copy, I let stay there.
The Yellow taged files were the first half I transferred back.
As long as you have a protected copy of your Mail folder, you can try variations of the above. This is what worked for me, and I hope it is helpful to some or all of you.

Finally I've figured out what happened for not syncing anymore what I did on the Mail.app mailbox of my Professional Exchange account.
So, the problem was the MailTags plugin: http://www.indev.ca/MailTags.html
I don't know if it was after the Trial Period that went rogue, or this has happen since the install, but when I've uninstalled it, it worked just fine.
Hope this help someone with the same problem.

Need some spec help looking on buying mac pro

Hello
I have been looking at getting a Mac for quite some time now I have used Windows all my life and I'm tired of it. I happen to have my birthday coming up and I have all this holiday money set aside for a mac pro. Here is my problem I only have around $800 so I cant really get an Intel Mac but I'm easily in the range for the Power Mac. I'm mostly going to play World of Warcraft and do iLife, iWork, and use Adobe CS3 when I get the cash. I'm a little scared though to buy a Power Mac because everything is going to Intel should I be worried. Also should I look for something else instead or just keep waiting for more money I have a 27' TV that supports HDMI and VGA and I would like to have a Mac I can upgrade because I'm going to College here in two years.
Thanks for all your help in advance

I would suggest to you to get a macmini.
its in your budget, and can run all the apps you mentioned.
In two years, you'll still be able to get something for it if you decide to upgrade to a macpro.
what kind of powermac were you looking at?

I need help with some technical YouTube Settings, third party tools page

How can I add ios mobile Safari, back to my google + third-party tools page? I updated my ipad 2 to ios7 and could no longer upload videos to youtube for my blog. YouTube had been saying unrecognized file type because it's not longer compatible with ios mobile photos app.
I went into settings via the google/youtube help files and removed some old stuff from the third party apps, like blogger-an inactive blog and obviously deleted the ios moblie too that was right underneath blogger. tried jumping through their hoops, add a phone number, verify your account, lengthen your video time, add 2 step verification (which was horrible and I went back in and removed it), add a password for ipad, etc.
They (youtube/google??) have been working on stuff because there is all kinds of new things the second day I tried to figure this out via their help/redirect links. ios mobile was there before and now it's gone, even though I did not choose/select it. But I have noticed that the ipad screen is much more sensitive than it was before the ios7 update. I don't even have to touch the screen for some things, it accepts and goes on it's own while my finger is hovering over the screen.
ipad2
ios7.0.2
Safari
YouTube
Google+

The Title of my post, should really be....I have ipad2 with ios7.0.3 and Safari, I can't upload videos to YouTube because of Google? or ios7?
It's now November 1st. LOL 53 folks have read my problem and it only gets better. I pleaded with Google/YouTube via Feedback form (because they are one and the same now) to please add ios mobile back to Google 3rd party apps and after checking every single day, someone finally added it back for me. Yay! Then I asked if I needed to "revoke" Google+ in the 3rd party apps because some of the help files suggested Google+ is attached to your YouTube channel and might affect uploading of videos? For the life of me, I could not figure out how to get it off my YouTube channel. And the help files didn't take me to a place to change it. Upon checking 3rd party apps, I could no longer find the page they were on, and the Google+ app icon now goes no where.
Hey, but there are new menus with all kinds of statistics now about your account, like how many subscribers you have, what the average number of minutes people watch your videos,etc. Hmm... so I tried uploading a video and it worked. I got the message that ios7.0.3 with bug fixes was available a few days ago and updated to that. I'm back to, no longer upload videos, yesterday it was still freezing on the upload screen, where you add the title of your video and all of the specs, it appears to be half uploaded with a solid blue bar half way and goes no where. I have to close the app after an hour or more. I have rebooted a couple of times every day. Today it says, we could not upload your video, we did not recognize the format of this file. And when I go to YouTube and can see all of my videos, my subscriptions, I can not remove the videos that tried to upload, they are blank gray squares. A few days ago I could edit them out. I guess they are still working on it. These are the same self recorded videos, that I have been uploading for a year, same ipad. I have sent feedback to Google/YouTube once again.
I'm completely at their mercy. I have yahoo mail, so I can't send my videos via email, even though my channel has a special email address to send videos to for upload. Yahoo will not send a video more than a minute or so. I created an AT&T email address today, and it's the same there, will not send a 15 minute video. The upload link on YouTube no longer works, there on the same page with your special email address to mail your videos in, even though there is no email that supports a 15 minute video. My husband suggested video compressing program. I have not tried to upload from a PC, I do have icloud, so that may be my next route. Other forums say they/Google/YouTube are fully aware of it and are working on it. Still 30+ days in...
It's a shame these companies can't work together, it's a shame that there is no answer, because we all have these devices we spent hundreds of dollars on and want them to work. I have been searching the web for 30+ days and no one knows the answer. Hard to believe I'm the only person having this ipad issue.

How about some specs on the Audigy/X-fi J1 hea

Many cases out there come with two front-panel audio jacks. One for headphones, and the other for the microphone. The Audigy and X-fi include a header (referred to as J) for OEMs to connect these. Information on using this jack is provided to large OEM's like Dell. However, Creative is a little hesitant tp help with the highly experienced mod community.Anyways, lets start with information on the passi've AC97 front-panel dongles that come with most cases. These are expected to be used with the onboard AC97 audio on your motherboard.Here is your typical NC (Normally Closed), switching type, 3 conductor (ring-tip-sleeve) mini-phone jack. This is the type of jack used on most front panels:
<IMG src="http://www.jve.com/images/typical.jpg">The connection to the sleeve is the rectangle on the left. The upper line with the notch is the connection to the ring, and the lower line with the notch is the connection to the tip. The jack also has two normally closed switches that connect to the contacts themselves. Wiring connections are illustrated with white circles. In a typical front panel setup, two of these are soldered onto a PCB with a header. Wires attached to this header are then run to the appropriate connections on your motherboards on-board audio.Now lets look at how an AC97 front panel headphone jack works:<IMG src="http://www.jve.com/images/fphp.jpg">
As you can see the switches in the jack are normally closed... So the signal passes from your motherboard, up the wire, into the headphone jack, back through the wire, into your motherboard. When a jack is plugged in, the switches are open, breaking the signal back to your motherboard.Now... I have to mention some ugliness. Some case manufacturers (*cough* Coolermaster, *cough* Silverstone) do something like this on the wires that connect to the motherboard:
<IMG src="http://www.jve.com/images/cooler.jpg">
This will result in your backpanel outputs (in other words, your speakers) continuing to receive a signal while you have headphones hooked up. Note that sometimes this is also accomplished with some trickery on the front panel dongle PCB.Here is how an AC97 microphone jack is expected to be wired:
<IMG src="http://www.jve.com/images/fphp2.jpg">
I haven't looked into the details of the microphone jack as much, but this is what you will see.Next I will go into Creatives J header. Here is the confirmed pin-out for the J header:
<IMG src="http://www.jve.com/images/fpoem.jpg">Note this is how the header is mounted on the card:<IMG src="http://www.jve.com/images/audigyj.jpg">
Pin 3, the headphone detection pin, is of particular interest. When this is switched to ground your back-panel connected will mute. These are the descriptions for the other pins floating around on the net, however I am not able to confirm their accuracy yet:
<BLOCKQUOTE dir=ltr>
#5 Back-panel Mute -- short to ground
#7 key pin (shouldn't be there)#9 MIC IN MUTE -- ground when mic isn't plugged in, +2VDC when mic is plugged in#0 Audio cable detect -- will be ground when headphones are plugged in[/quote]
Pin 3 mutes all the speakers from my tests, however despite the the descriptions of others... grounding pin 5 appears to do nothing... not even mute the back microphone.Pin 9 doesn't appear to mute the microphone either. I am thinking if this pin gives 2V when the microphone is plugged in, that it is intended for optional analog circuits present on some panels (Microphone volume for instance). The AC97 spec provides a 5V pin for this, although no one seems to use it. I don't have the equipment handy on me to investigate further.Now... backtracking a bit here... if you read my previous post, you should see connecting the signal returns on your AC97 front-panel headphone jack to the headphone detection pin (#3) is a useless exercise. This pin is expecting to be grounded when the headphones are present.Essentially for the headphones Creative is requiring OEM's use this sort of jack:<IMG height=343 src="http://www.jve.com/images/bettaj.jpg" width=47>
This jack has a switch which is normally open. When a plug is inserted the switch closes. This kind of jack is purchasable from Foxconn and is present on the rare Intel HD Audio front panel dongles.... so they are available. (Intel HD Audio front panels are a whole different discussion, and have no direct relation to the J header.)Onto a few other things.... There was some talk of the microphone front-panel jack being mute without something in the back-panel mic jack. I however found the microphone front-panel jack did work, however the signal sounded a bit poorer. I did not investigate further.
It is understood that AC97 front-panel dongles are of limited use with the J header. However modders and prefectionists like myself ARE capable of building a frontpanel that fully complies with the requirements of the J header. The smaller pins on the header are already sufficient to keep any newbie that may damage his card, far away.
Will Creative please save us some time and reveal specifications for the J header? I already know what most of the pins do.Message Edited by twistedemotions on 09-20-2005 2:50 PM

I haven't looked into the details of the microphone jack as much, but this is what you will see.Next I will go into Creatives J header. Here is the confirmed pin-out for the J header:
<IMG src="http://www.jve.com/images/fpoem.jpg">Note this is how the header is mounted on the card:<IMG src="http://www.jve.com/images/audigyj.jpg">
Pin 3, the headphone detection pin, is of particular interest. When this is switched to ground your back-panel connected will mute. These are the descriptions for the other pins floating around on the net, however I am not able to confirm their accuracy yet:
<BLOCKQUOTE dir=ltr>
#5 Back-panel Mute -- short to ground
#7 key pin (shouldn't be there)#9 MIC IN MUTE -- ground when mic isn't plugged in, +2VDC when mic is plugged in#0 Audio cable detect -- will be ground when headphones are plugged in[/quote]
Pin 3 mutes all the speakers from my tests, however despite the the descriptions of others... grounding pin 5 appears to do nothing... not even mute the back microphone.Pin 9 doesn't appear to mute the microphone either. I am thinking if this pin gives 2V when the microphone is plugged in, that it is intended for optional analog circuits present on some panels (Microphone volume for instance). The AC97 spec provides a 5V pin for this, although no one seems to use it. I don't have the equipment handy on me to investigate further.Now... backtracking a bit here... if you read my previous post, you should see connecting the signal returns on your AC97 front-panel headphone jack to the headphone detection pin (#3) is a useless exercise. This pin is expecting to be grounded when the headphones are present.Essentially for the headphones Creative is requiring OEM's use this sort of jack:<IMG height=343 src="http://www.jve.com/images/bettaj.jpg" width=47>
This jack has a switch which is normally open. When a plug is inserted the switch closes. This kind of jack is purchasable from Foxconn and is present on the rare Intel HD Audio front panel dongles.... so they are available. (Intel HD Audio front panels are a whole different discussion, and have no direct relation to the J header.)Onto a few other things.... There was some talk of the microphone front-panel jack being mute without something in the back-panel mic jack. I however found the microphone front-panel jack did work, however the signal sounded a bit poorer. I did not investigate further.
It is understood that AC97 front-panel dongles are of limited use with the J header. However modders and prefectionists like myself ARE capable of building a frontpanel that fully complies with the requirements of the J header. The smaller pins on the header are already sufficient to keep any newbie that may damage his card, far away.
Will Creative please save us some time and reveal specifications for the J header? I already know what most of the pins do.Message Edited by twistedemotions on 09-20-2005 2:50 PM

New to Solaris administration - Need some help with some issues

Hello all,
I am a new to Solaris administration and need some assistance with a few things. I was going to make separate posts but decided it would be easy to keep track of in one. I really do not know much about the OS but I do have a little Linux background so that might help me out. I am going to number my problems to keep them sorted, so here we go.
The machine:
Sunfire V880
4x 73GB HDs
PCI dual fiber channel host adapter
Attached RAID array:
Sun StorEdge T3 Array with 9x 73GB HDs
Sun DDS4 Tape Drive in a Unipack
OS: Solaris 5.10
Updates: Updated everything except 2 patches (Updating is a real pain isn't it? At least it seems that way to me.)
1. So I might as well start with the update issues! These 2 updates will not install:
-PostgreSQL 8.2 source code, (137004-02)
Utility used to install the update failed with exit code {0}.
-Patch for mediaLib in solaris, (121620-03)
Install of update failed. Utility used to install the update is not able to save files. Utility used to install the update failed with exit code 4.
No idea why the PostgreSQL update is not working, but the medialib patch seems to not have enough hard drive space.
2. Where are all the drives? I don't know how to find the RAID box or the other 3 internal hard drives. When I installed the OS, I think I installed it on only one hard drive and that might be part of the reason why the medialibe update above says that I don't have enough space.
3. I probably need more space for the OS and updates, is there a way to "add" space onto the hard drive that currently is running the OS?
3. Once I see the other hard drives I wish to combine them to make a RAID 0 and RAID 5 array, how do I go about doing that?
4. How can I find/see the tape drive?
5. Does my swap space really need to be 64GB? I know the book I have read suggests it, but I only made it 5GB because it didn't seem to make sense to make it 64GB.
Thank you in advance for the help. I know these are a lot of questions to ask but please go easy on me :)

-PostgreSQL 8.2 source code, (137004-02)
Utility used to install the update failed with exit code {0}.
Exit code 0 means there were no errors. When you run showrev -p 137004-02, does your system show that the patch is installed? You can check the log for a particular patch add attempt in /var/sadm/patch/+patch_num_rev+1- A bunch of stuff shows up, here is a portion (I am not entirely sure what it means, there must be a least a page of stuff like this):

When you run format command, how many drives are listed? Identify your root drive (compare with output of df command you ran earlier) Please post here.2. Output of df-hk, looks like I ran out of room. Should I just go ahead and reinstall the OS?

3. So I guess the general consensus is to reinstall the OS, is that correct?
4. There is nothing in \dev\rmt, and unfortunately I don't have a tape to test it with!
5. I guess 5GB will be ok for what we do.

1. I think the above text might explain why it failed, although I don't know how to correct it.

3. Judging by the above text I will be doing a reinstall huh?
4. Actually I am not familiar with tape backups let alone solaris backup apps! Any suggestions? (Preferably free, have to cut down on costs.)
5. No comment
Thanks for the help, hope to hear from you again!
