Help. Too much coffee.

I an not a newbie when it comes to computers, but I am not a software developer and don't want to be,
and I know little or nothing about Java and don't want to, but I am confused, very confused.  This all started
because I got into bit torrents (Azureus) but have decided that is not for me.  So I wanted to back out all the
stuff installed on my notebook related to this.  The installation of Azureus included the need for JRE 1.5.0.1
(jre-1_5_0_01-windows-i586-p.exe) which was installed.  I have uninstalled the Azureus software but have
a ton of Java stuff and need to know what I should do IF ANYTHING.  Thanks for bearing with me so far. 
What follows is all the information I have gathered about this matter.
C:\Program Files\Java contains the following folders.
  j2re1.4.2_04
  j2re1.4.2_05
  j2re1.4.2_06
  jre1.5.0_01
C:\WINDOWS\Downloaded Program Files contains the following folders.  Please note that browsers installed are
       Win IE Version 6.0.... but I mostly use Opera 7.54. Netscape has never been on my machine.
  Java Runtime Environment 1.4.2 (Properties show description 1.4.2_04 for Netscape Navigator)   Status is Installed
  Java Runtime Environment 1.4.2 (Properties show description 1.4.2_05 for Netscape Navigator)   Status is Installed
  Java Runtime Environment 1.4.2 (Properties show description 1.4.2_06 for Netscape Navigator)   Status is Installed
  Java Runtime Environment 1.5.0 (Properties show description 1.5.0_01 for Netscape Navigator)   Status is Installed
  Java Runtime Environment 1.5.0 (Properties show description 1.5.0_01 for Netscape Navigator)   Status is Installed 
      (a duplicate with the same date and time.)  (Why, who knows)
Windows XP Pro Control Panel/Add or Remove Programs shows only the following currently installed.
  Java 2 Runtime Environment, SE v1.4.2_04
  Java 2 Runtime Environment, SE v1.4.2_05
  Java 2 Runtime Environment, SE v1.4.2_06
Norton Process viewer shows only jusched.exe active with the path as
     C:\Program Files\Java\j2re1.4.2_05\bin\jusched.exe
And finally when executing http://www.java.com/en/download/faq/top_issues.xml I get a new page
           (address j2re1.4.2_05) that states
Congratulations.  The latest version is installed on your system.        
Your Java configuration is:
                    Vendor:    Sun Microsystems Inc.
                    Version:    1.5.0_01
                    Operating System:    Windows XP
                    OS Version:    5.1
OK that's what I know.  What should I do if anything to cleanup my machine? 
Your help will be most appreciated. 
You can direct replys to [email protected] if necessary.

I just hate all the effort involved with
reinstalls from the OS up. You certainly know as
well as I do that adding and removing software always
leaves residue. Whatever, I do appreciate the help I
received on this thread. As for your sense of humor,
it sucks! If you want to continue with this nonsense
let us get off the forum. E-mail me direct.
[email protected] should work for you.
Cool down, Glenn. I have to admit, when I read your post about BitTorrent, I thought pretty much the same as javajugs did... it just sounded like it. The situation was pretty much like the moment a (female) friend of mine once proclaimed on a party - without any context - "I'm a virgin". This lead to many a raised brow from those who heard it, and to curious glances at her boyfriend, until she finally muttered "I meant my star sign"...
Sometimes, people just associate the wrong thing. Don't be aggravated by that. Say it how it is, and everything's cool.
Back to your problem: does it still exist? You shouldn't need to reinstall the OS just because of Java, and the uninstallations of the JVM work relatively cleanly. If you want to really make sure that all of it is gone, check your file system, the registry and the environment variables - the PATH was extended and the CLASS_PATH was added.
After that, either re-install Java 1.5 JRE or don't, depending on how much you care. It's not necessary for everyday's use (except applets), but it basically doesn't hurt to have it either.

    N73 ME Battery HEATING TOO MUCH - Please Help
    Hi Friends,
    I am from India
    Need Help/Suggestion from Mobile Gurus right here
    I have 1 Year Old N73 ME and I mainly use it for Calling and Texting. Very Occasionally I use it for Music/Gaming and Browsing the Web.
    The phone is completely in excellent condition
    The problem is that: While charging ONLY the Battery gets too much HOT and it never shows Battery is Full (Charged it for Max 1 Hour 45 Minutes)
    This problem suddenly appeared, so I formatted the Memory Card as well as Hard Format/Reset the Phone, but still the Battery is heating too much
    After disconnecting the Phone from Charger, the Battery is FULL and I can use it without any problem and as usual. The Talktime right now is around 2.5 Hours and Standby time is around 2-3 Days
    Please tell me what to do
    If you want any additional details I will post here
    Thanks a Lot and With Best Wishes

    Turn the Phone Off...
    Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
    Wait for the Apple logo to Appear and then Disappear...

  • To upload photos from my pc onto my ipad using a usb stick. I bought a camera connector kit and tried placing the usb stick onto one of the white square adaptors, stuck it into the ipad2 and I got 'the device uses too much power'' message. Pls help.

    I am not very familiar with the ipad2. I wished to transfer some photos from my pc (not an apple pc but that is the only one I have) to my ipad2 as I thought it would be easier to cull them, edit, crop etc to create albums for our recent trip (the photos are already on the pc and no longer on the camera memory card). When I place the usb stick on the adaptor and stick it onto the Ipad2 I keep getting 'device uses too much power/ requires too much power' message. I read somewhere on the internet that a usb hub could be used to solve the issue but that did not work either. What am I doing wrong? Is there actually a way around this problem. If not why does apple sell this product for Ipad users at all?
    Thank you for any help/ solution you can offer.
    Regards

    I'd ask that on the iPad forum.

  • "Because a USB device was drawing too much power from your computer, one or more of your USB devices have been disabled." HELP!

    When I plug in my son's iPad I get this message "Because a USB device was drawing too much power from your computer, one or more of your USB devices have been disabled." I only have one charger for this iPad all my other chargers are for iPhone 4s. I have pluggerd it in different outlets around the house and the iPad will not charge. When I plugged it on my lap top to back it up it gave me the warning message. HELP!!

    I have the same problem on my Air. The message first came up while my iPhone was connected to it for some time. Since then, it pops up ALL THE TIME, whithout anything being connected to the USB port, at what appear to be random intervals that vary between about one hour and a few seconds. I have tried resetting the SMC and  the PRAM, but no results. A quick search revealed that thousands of users are facing this problem, but Apple has yet to provide a solution. Please help!

    Sometimes you have to reset the SMC two or three times for it to work, don't know why. I've seen that error message before and 100% of the time it was fixed with an SMC reset. I suppose it's possible that your keyboard or mouse IS drawing too much power, do you have access to another you could try?

  • I can no longer charge my iPhone5 through either of my macbook pros. I get the error message that a USB device is using too much power. Can anyone help?

    I can no longer charge my iPhone5 through either of my macbook pros. I get the error message that a USB device is using too much power. Can anyone help?

    I reconnected the original powered hub that I thought probably caused the problem and this time it shut down the whole computer. When I rebooted everything now works perfectly. The system reset. I tried another powered hub and it didn't have the same effect so the old one is heading for the bin and with fingers crossed all systems are now working perfectly. Trying to reset PRAM or reset the SMC didn't work but causing the same power issue did. Thanks for your input though. It did get me to think what was the original cause.

  • Hi, im trying to download pictures from my camera but when I connect the lightning to usb camera adapter i get the message that there is too much energy required to support the device, can anyone help me?

    Hi, I´m trying to use the lightning to usb camera adaper, but I get a message that ¨there is too much energy needed to support the device¨, so I can´t download my pictures, can anyone help me?

    This discussion may help.
    It mostly depends on the camera. Some cameras have a Transfer Mode, which does not attempt to charge while transferring pictures. does yours have such a setting?
    Alternatively you can try to plug a powered USB hub between the camera and the USB connector so the power is provided by the HUB rather than the iPad.
    Other than that, yes the Memory card reader may be a better option assuming your Camera uses Secure Digital (SD) type memory cards.

  • Combining clob taking too much time - need help

    Hello,
    I want to append clob values into another clob value like
    declare
    v_temp clob;
    v_c1_temp clob;
    cursor c1 as select clob_data from t;
    -- here t table contains clob_data column holding clob data
    -- t table have more then 1500 rows
    begin
    v_temp := '';
    open c1 into v_c1_temp;
    loop
    v_temp := v_temp + v_c1_temp; --------- combining clob (concat may be used)
    end loop;
    close(c1);
    end;
    above part also repeats in outer loop (not shown here)
    my problem is :- it is taking too much time - you dont believe 90% more time due to that concatenation.
    is it any smart way to do same thing?
    It will be very helpful to me.

    Hi ,
    You should also always try and have the latest BI content patch installed but I don't think this is the problem. It seems that there
    are alot of objects to collect. Under 'grouping' you can select the option 'only necessary objects', please check if you can
    use this option to  install the objects that you need from content.
    Best Regards,

  • Firefox uses too much CPU ff3.6.3 any HELP?

    Firefox uses way too much CPU. Running MAC OSX and ff 3.6.3 using "activity monitor" shows Firefox uses typically 96% of my CPU !!
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == I noticed my computer was getting s- l -o w- e -r

    Hello Kr.
    This kind of issues are, unfortunately, more common and the we'd like. Thankfully, 99% of the cases are very easy to solve. However, you do need to diagnose what your exact problem is. Do this:
    #run Firefox in [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode safe-mode] to disable all extensions, themes and plugins. If this fixes your issues, be them with RAM or CPU usage, then you know it's a problem with plugins, themes or extensions. Proceed to number 2. If safe-mode doesn't fix the issues, then read bellow, after this list;
    #update all extensions, themes and plugins in your Firefox. If this doesn't solve the issues, proceed to the following number;
    #disable all extensions, themes and plugins in your Firefox (not running safe-mode). Being certain that, as in safe-mode, the problems you're having have gone away, enable one plugin at a time. You should be certain that you WANT that plugin to be enabled, so keep your overall number of plugins as low as possible. When you encounter the problems, you know you've found a problematic plugin, so disable it for good. Keep enabling all plugins (except problematic ones) until you've gone through them all.
    #enable one extension at a time. Again, be certain that you WANT that extension to be enabled, so keep your overall number of extensions as low as possible. Also, try the theme you want to have installed so see if that is what's causing the problem. When you encounter the problems, you know you've found a problematic extension/theme, so disable it for good. Keep enabling all your extensions (except problematic ones) until you've gone through them all;
    #you're done! You've fixed your problems with problematic add-ons. If you want to keep using those problematic add-ons, please contant their author for support.
    Ok, if disabling all extensions and plugins through safe-mode didn't work to bring Firefox's CPU and RAM usage to good levels, then you have different issue. The most likely scenario is that you have a third party software running on your computer that is messing with Firefox. Do as follows:
    #try reinstalling Firefox. No data will be lost. You can get the latest version for free at [http://www.getfirefox.com/ getfirefox.com]. If that doesn't fix the problem, proceed;
    #do a virus/malware check on your computer. If this doesn't fix it, proceed;
    #disable all software running in the background that you don't want to have running in the background (in windows, this is done by pressing WINDOWS+R in your keyboard, typing "msconfig" (without the commas) and pressing enter. Now, under the "Startup" tab, you can uncheck the software you don't want, and reboot your system for changes to take effect. If you're unsure of what software you want running, ask someone with more experience). If this doesn't fix your issues with Firefox, proceed;
    #check your firewall/antivirus/security suite for enabled functions/features that you don't want and/or may be conflicting with Firefox. You'll find that these features are most likely tied to Internet Security features, such as link scanners or URL checkers and the like. If you're not sure they are conflicting with Firefox, simply try to disable them to see whether or not that's true. As long as you don't browse the web with your antivirus completely off and your firewall completely turned off, there should be no problems. If this doesn't solve the issues, proceed to the following number;
    #check your operating system security options, mainly advanced options that are not configured by default. While it's very unlikely that this may be the cause of the problem (after all, it's the last item on the list), it's remotely possible. If this doesn't work, proceed to the following point;
    #update your modem/router software. There have been some reports that some modem/router software may cause Firefox and other browsers to loose performance and/or stability. If updating doesn't fix your issue, try other versions of the software, if possible. If you need support with this, contact your modem/router manufacturer. If this doesn't help, proceed;
    #clean up your OS registry, using appropriate software. Make sure you've followed my instructions correctly, but if this all doesn't work, [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Managing+profiles create a new Firefox profile] (this can be temporary, of course) and see if the issues persist. Report here the results, so we can't help you further.

  • I just got an iPad 2 16 gb and was wondering how I can upload pictures from a micro sd card but my iPad is saying cannot connect device using too much power. I have tried a 16 gb micro sd card and 4 gb micro sd card. Can anyone help please??

    I got an iPad 2 and I cannot get my pictures to upload from a micro sd card as the iPad is saying device not accepted using too much power. Can anyone help? My iPad 2 is a 16 gb and my micro sd card is 4 gb

    You can use a USB flash drive & the camera connection kit. First download the pics to your computer.
    Plug the USB flash drive into your computer & create a new folder titled DCIM. Then put your movie/photo files into the folder. The files must have a filename with exactly 8 characters long (no spaces) plus the file extension (i.e., my-movie.mov).
    Now plug the flash drive into the iPad using the camera connection kit. Open the Photos app, the movie/photo files should appear & you can import.
