Help with installing a program

I hope someone can help me with this problem. I have a late 08 model Macbook Pro with Snow Leopard 10.6.7 installed. I just bought a new CAD program, actually from 05, but still factory sealed, and I cannot install it. I then learned from the seller that it is a program for PowerPC and I would need to use Rosetta to install it. I have researched installing with Rosetta and after booting the disc up, selected "get info", but no option for "install with Rosetta" appears. Any suggestions would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Installing After Upgrade
If you find out after your Snow Leopard upgrade that you need Rosetta, no problem. Mac OS X will let you know, and it will handle the Rosetta installation for you, too.
Snow Leopard can add Rosetta even after installation.
If Rosetta isn't already installed when you try to launch a PowerPC-based application, Snow Leopard will display a dialog asking if you want to install Rosetta. Clicking Not Now stops the installation process, and your application won't launch. Clicking Install downloads and installs Rosetta from Apple's servers so your app can properly launch.

PLEASE CAN SOMEOME HELP ME INSTALL THIS PROGRAM????

PLease can someone help me install this program?? I am not computer literate.

What program specifically are you struggling with? What operating system are you using? What happens when you try?

Installing Elements 11 on Mac. Need help with install error "Setup wants to make changes."

Installing Elements 11 on Mac 10.8.2. Need help with install error: Setup wants to make changes. Type your password to allow this." After entering Adobe password, nothing happens. Locked from further installation. Any ideas? Adobe phone support could not help.

Just before letting changes (installation in this case) be made on the system, Mac OS prompts for password & this has to be the Mac system password. This password prompt is the system's own native prompt & would accept the system password only. Please make sure it is the right system password (all/admin rights) and the installaion should run.

Help with installing 10.6.3

Hello, I'm looking for a bit of help with installing Mac OS X 10.6.3 without screwing up.
I currently have a Macbook with 10.6.3 on it, and I want to COMPLETELY reset my Mac. I want to have a pretty much brand new Mac with 10.6.3, which I have the disk for. I actually just updated from 10.5.8, hoping that it would erase my hard drive and re-install, but it didn't. So I would like help with how to completely reset my Mac, and re-install 10.6.3.
Thanks in advance!
~Dan

Use that disk, but after booting from it and before running the install, choose Disk Utility from the Utilities menu and erase the drive.

RedMoose:
Congratulations on installing an upgraded HDD into your PowerBook.
I am not sure exactly what happened in the formatting process, but here are some directions that should help:
Formatting, Partitioning Zeroing a Hard Disk Drive
Warning! This procedure will destroy all data on your Hard Disk Drive. Be sure you have an up-to-date, tested backup of at least your Users folder and any third party applications you do not want to re-install before attempting this procedure.
Boot from the install CD holding down the "C" key.
Select language
Go to the Utilities menu (Tiger) Installer menu (Panther & earlier) and launch Disk Utility.
Select your HDD (manufacturer ID) in left side bar.
Select Partition tab in main panel. (You are about to create a single partition volume.)
Select number of partition in pull-down menu above Volume diagram.
(Note: 1 partition is normally better for an internal HDD. External HDDs usually have more than one. See Dr. Smoke’s FAQ Backup and Recovery for tips on partitioning external HDD.)
Type in name in Name field (usually Macintosh HD)
Select Volume Format as Mac OS Extended (Journaled)
Click Partition button at bottom of panel.
Select Erase tab
Optional: (Select the sub-volume under Manufacturer ID (usually Macintosh HD).
Check to be sure your Volume Name and Volume Format are correct.
Select on Security Options button (Tiger) Options button (Panther & earlier).
Select Zero all data. (This process will map out bad blocks on your HDD. However, it could take several hours. If you want a quicker method, don't go to Security Options and just click the Erase button.)
Click OK.
Click Erase button
Quit Disk Utility.
Open installer and begin installation process.
Please post back with further questions, comments or an update.
Good luck.

Problems with installing new programs

Dear all,
since the update to OS X Yosemite, I have some problems with installing new programs.
I tried to install the Fitbit App to connect my Fitbit to my Mac but the program can't be started after installation. I have the same problem with Blackberry Blend, too. I am able to install it but it doesn't start running.
Does anybody have an idea what's the problem?
Thank You,

Did you receive any errors during the installation itself or does this happen when you try to open Photoshop?

}the only problem now is about how it should display the right info about the person whenever i click its name on the list.. something about file reading or something, i just cant figure it out.
and also about how to make it scroll once it exceeds the list.. i cant make it work, maybe something about wrong declaration..
thanks in advance..

Like said before, do one thing at a time. At startup, something like:
//put all the content in a list
ArrayList<String> lines = new ArrayList<String>();
while(String line=rand.readLine()!=null) {
    lines.add(line);
}If you follow the good advice to create a class to encapsulate the entries, you could populate a list of such entries like this:
static final int ENTRY_SIZE = 3;//you have 3 fields now, better to have a constant if that changes
ArrayList<Entry> entries = new ArrayList<Entry>();
for(int i=0; i<lines.size(); i+=ENTRY_SIZE) {
    Entry entry = new Entry(lines.get(i), lines.get(i+1), lines.get(i+2);
    entries.add(newEntry);
}You could also do both of the above in one run, but I think you will understand better what's happening if you do one thing at a time.
If you don't want to put the entries in an encapsulating class, you can still access this without looping:
int listStartIdx = <desired_entry_index>*ENTRY_SIZE;
String att1 = lines.get(listStartIdx).substring(1);
String att2 = lines.get(listStartIdx+1).substring(1);
String att3 = lines.get(listStartIdx+2).substring(1);

Help with Installing flash error- metafile cannot be loaded

I read the forum on this but it ended last year and there was no response to some recent questions on this and the direct email to the Adobe rep. on there got no response.
I am having this problem with installing Flash- it gets about 30% of the way and then a message comes up that says the metafile cannot be loaded.
I am running 10.7.5 on Mac, all browser software is current. I use both Safari and Chrome. After it said Flash was out of date I tried to update but got the metafile error. So I uninstalled Flash to install it fresh but the same error came up. I tried everything recommended from the forum. I also did all the steps from the help list direct from Adobe ( deleting Flash files, folders, rebooting, etc.) The offline link Adobe provides says the "file cannot be found" so I can't download that either. So I tried the online link download, but even after doing all the steps in order etc. I still get the error when I try to install it.
I have no firewall and have no virus software running. I also tried the direct offline links that others have provided from 2013, (unfortunately they are old) in both clicking on them and also downloading by right click but they are dead links and even the download for it has no content.
Any help that is more recent than last year? If this is in the wrong place, apologies. New to the forum.

I tried all solutions but one posted in adobe support. I am local administrator but IE security settings are set by group policies and buttons in tools security setting are grayed out.
After three days with "The ActiveX control for Flash Player could not be registered" message I tried registering the activeX control manually.
Bingo! that made the trick.
So open a DOS window, type "regsvr32.exe C:\WINDOWS\system32\Macromed\Flash\Flash10d.ocx" -first check if this directory exists and contains the Flash10d.ocx (no quotes needed) and you should receive a confirmation that it registered correctly.
I must say that I've tried so many ways that I cannot repeat the correct order before this has worked ;-(
Hope it works for you all

Help with a java program

Hello. I'm posting in these forums because I really don't know where else to go. I have been trying for the past several days to figure out how to go about writing my program but to no avail. The project requires reading many lines each containing several different elements from a datafile named "DATA". A few examples of some lines from that file:
Department number/Number of units received/Date on which the shipment arrived/Expiration date/Name of Object
0 78 02/03/2001 02/12/2001 apples
0 26 06/03/2001 06/10/2001 lemons
3 62 03/06/2001 03/14/2001 hamburger
What we have to do with this data is read all of it from the file, separate all the different elements, and based on input from the user, sort everything and print it out to the screen. If the user enters 03, the program will show everything that arrived and expired within the month of March, sorted by date.
It is a pretty basic program, but my problem is that I have no idea how to go about reading in this data, putting it into a vector (probably the easiest method) or separating the different elements. I've gone to websites and looked through my textbooks but they didn't help much. If anyone has any resources that could help for writing such a program, or if anyone could offer help in writing the program, I would really appreciate it. I can also show what I've managed to write so far, or more details on how the program should work. Thanks in advance.
Matt

since im not a pro like some of the guys on here :),
and believe me thiers people here, who could write your whole app in a hour.
anyways my advice , would be to do a search on the forums for useing.bufferReader()
i think you would need to read the file in with bufferreader then split up each line useing the stringTokenizer and then use some algorithm to compare
the values and split them up into your vector arrays as needed.
thier is also fileinputStream i think you can use that too.

Need help with a rudimentary program

I'm sort of new at this so i need help with a few things... I'm making a program to compile wages and i need answers with three things: a.) what are the error messages im getting meaning? b.) How can i calculate the state tax as 2% of my gross pay with the first $200 excluded and c.) how can i calculate the local tax as a flat $10 with $2 deducted for each dependant. any help is appreciated
Here is what i have so far:
public class WagesAsign1
          public static void main(String[] args)
               int depend=4;
               double hrsWork=40;
               double payRate=15;
               double grossPay;
               grossPay=payRate*hrsWork;
               double statePaid;
               double stateTax=2.0;
               statePaid=grossPay*(stateTax/100);
               double localPaid;
               double localTax=10.0;
               localPaid=grossPay*(localTax/100);
               double fedPaid;
               double fedTax=10.0;
               double taxIncome;
               fedPaid=taxIncome*(fedTax/100);
               taxIncome=grossPay-(statePaid+localPaid);
               double takeHome;
               System.out.println("Assignment 1 Matt Foraker\n");
               System.out.println("Hours worked="+hrsWork+" Pay rate $"+payRate+" per/hour dependants: "+depend);
               System.out.println("Gross Pay $"+grossPay+"\nState tax paid $"+statePaid+"\nLocal tax paid $"+localPaid+"\nFederal tax paid $"+fedPaid);
               System.out.println("You take home a total of $"+takeHome);
and these are the error messages so far:
WagesAsign1.java:23: variable taxIncome might not have been initialized
               fedPaid=taxIncome*(fedTax/100);
^
WagesAsign1.java:29: variable takeHome might not have been initialized

Need Help With D&D Program

Hi, I'm not sure if I'm allowed to post questions on this forum but I can't find anywhere to talk to helpful people about programming.
I'm making a dnd interface for JComponents. So far I've made a simple program that has a Component that can be lifted from a container and braught to the glass pane then later moved to anywhere on the screen and dropped into the container below it. Here's where my problems come:
1) Rite now my 'Movable Component' is a JPanel which is just colored in. I want to either take a Graphic2d from a JComponent/Component and draw it on the JPanel or change the JPanel to the component I want to paint and disable the component.
The problem with getting the Graphics2d is that if the component isn't on the screen it doesn't make a graphic object. I tried messing with the ui delicate and overriding parental methods for paintComponent, repaint, and that repaintChildren(forget name) but I haven't had luck getting a good graphics object. I was thinking of, at the beginning of running the program, putting 1 of each component onto the screen for a second then removing it but I'd rather not. I'd also like to change the graphics dynamicly if someone stretches the component there dropping and what not.
The problem with disabling is that it changes some of the visual features of Components. I want to be able to update the Component myself to change how it looks and I don't want disabling to gray out components.
I mainly just dont want the components to do any of there normal fuctions. This is for a page builder, by the way.
Another problem I'm having is that mouseMotionListener is allowing me to select 2 components that are on top of one another when there edges are near each other. I don't know if theres a fix to this other than changing the Java Class.
My next problem is a drop layout manager, but I'm doing pretty good with that rite now. It'll problem just move components out of the way of the falling component.
One last thing I need help with is that I don't want the object that's being carried to go across the menu bar and certain areas. When I'm having the object being carried I have it braught up to the glass pane which allows it to move anywhere. Does anyone have any idea how I could prevent the component from being over the menu bars and other objects? I might have to make 1 panel is the movable area that can then be broken down into the 'component bank', 'building page' and whatever else I'm gonna need.
This is all just test code to get together for when I make the real program but I need to make sure it'll be possible without a lot of hacking of code.
Sorry for the length. Thanks for any help you can give.

The trick to making viewable components that have no behaviour, is to render them onto an image of some sort (eg a BufferedImage). You can then display the Image on a JLabel that can be dragged around the desktop.
Here is a piece of code that does the component rendering for you. This particular example uses a fixed component size, but you can modify that as you choose of course...public class JComponentImage
     private static GraphicsConfiguration gConfig;
     private static Dimension compSize = new Dimension(80, 22);
     private static Image image = null;
     public static Image getImage(Class objectClass)
          if (gConfig == null)
               GraphicsEnvironment gEnv = GraphicsEnvironment.getLocalGraphicsEnvironment();
               GraphicsDevice gDevice = gEnv.getDefaultScreenDevice();
               gConfig = gDevice.getDefaultConfiguration();
          image = gConfig.createCompatibleImage(compSize.width, compSize.height);
          JComponent jc = (JComponent) ObjectFactory.instantiate(objectClass);
          jc.setSize(compSize);
          Graphics g = image.getGraphics();
          g.setColor(Color.LIGHT_GRAY);
          g.fillRect(0, 0, compSize.width, compSize.height);
          g.setColor(Color.BLACK);
          jc.paint(g);
          return image;
}And here is the class that makes the dragable JLabel using the class above...public class Dragable extends JLabel
     private static DragSource dragSource = DragSource.getDefaultDragSource();
     private static DragGestureListener dgl = new DragMoveGestureListener();
     private static TransferHandler th = new ObjectTransferHandler();
     private Class compClass;
     private Image image;
     Dragable(Class compClass)
          this.compClass = compClass;
          image = JComponentImage.getImage(compClass);
          setIcon(new ImageIcon(image));
          setTransferHandler(th);
          dragSource.createDefaultDragGestureRecognizer(this,
                                                      DnDConstants.ACTION_COPY,
                                                      dgl);
     public Class getCompClass()
          return compClass;
}Oh and here is ObjectFactory which simply instantiates Objects of a given class and sets their text to their classname (very crudely)...public class ObjectFactory
     public static Object instantiate(Class objectClass)
          Object o = null;
          try
               o = objectClass.newInstance();
          catch (Exception e)
               System.out.println("ObjectFactory#instantiate: " + e);
          String name = objectClass.getName();
          int lastDot = name.lastIndexOf('.');
          name = name.substring(lastDot + 1);
          if (o instanceof JLabel)
               ((JLabel)o).setText(name);
          if (o instanceof JButton)
               ((JButton)o).setText(name);
          if (o instanceof JTextComponent)
               ((JTextComponent)o).setText(name);
          return o;
}Two more classes required by this codepublic class ObjectTransferHandler extends TransferHandler {
     private static DataFlavor df;
      * Constructor for ObjectTransferHandler.
     public ObjectTransferHandler() {
          super();
          try {
               df = new DataFlavor(DataFlavor.javaJVMLocalObjectMimeType);
          } catch (ClassNotFoundException e) {
               Debug.trace(e.toString());
     public Transferable createTransferable(JComponent jC) {
          Transferable t = null;
          try {
               t = new ObjectTransferable(((Dragable) jC).getCompClass());
          } catch (Exception e) {
               Debug.trace(e.toString());
          return t;
     public int getSourceActions(JComponent c) {
          return DnDConstants.ACTION_MOVE;
     public boolean canImport(JComponent comp, DataFlavor[] flavors) {
          if (!(comp instanceof Dragable) && flavors[0].equals(df))
               return true;
          return false;
     public boolean importData(JComponent comp, Transferable t) {
          JComponent c = null;
          try {
               c = (JComponent) t.getTransferData(df);
          } catch (Exception e) {
               Debug.trace(e.toString());
          comp.add(c);
          comp.validate();
          return true;
public class ObjectTransferable implements Transferable {
     private static DataFlavor df = null;
     private Class objectClass;
     ObjectTransferable(Class objectClass) {
          try {
               df = new DataFlavor(DataFlavor.javaJVMLocalObjectMimeType);
          } catch (ClassNotFoundException e) {
               System.out.println("ObjectTransferable: " + e);
          this.objectClass = objectClass;
      * @see java.awt.datatransfer.Transferable#getTransferDataFlavors()
     public DataFlavor[] getTransferDataFlavors() {
          return new DataFlavor[] { df };
      * @see java.awt.datatransfer.Transferable#isDataFlavorSupported(DataFlavor)
     public boolean isDataFlavorSupported(DataFlavor testDF) {
          return testDF.equals(df);
      * @see java.awt.datatransfer.Transferable#getTransferData(DataFlavor)
     public Object getTransferData(DataFlavor arg0)
          throws UnsupportedFlavorException, IOException {
          return ObjectFactory.instantiate(objectClass);
}And of course the test class:public class DragAndDropTest extends JFrame
     JPanel leftPanel = new JPanel();
     JPanel rightPanel = new JPanel();
     Container contentPane = getContentPane();
     Dragable dragableJLabel;
     Dragable dragableJButton;
     Dragable dragableJTextField;
     Dragable dragableJTextArea;
      * Constructor DragAndDropTest.
      * @param title
     public DragAndDropTest(String title)
          super(title);
          dragableJLabel = new Dragable(JLabel.class);
          dragableJButton = new Dragable(JButton.class);
          dragableJTextField = new Dragable(JTextField.class);
          dragableJTextArea = new Dragable(JTextArea.class);
          leftPanel.setBorder(new EtchedBorder());
          BoxLayout boxLay = new BoxLayout(leftPanel, BoxLayout.Y_AXIS);
          leftPanel.setLayout(boxLay);
          leftPanel.add(dragableJLabel);
          leftPanel.add(dragableJButton);
          leftPanel.add(dragableJTextField);
          leftPanel.add(dragableJTextArea);
          rightPanel.setPreferredSize(new Dimension(500,500));
          rightPanel.setBorder(new EtchedBorder());
          rightPanel.setTransferHandler(new ObjectTransferHandler());
          contentPane.setLayout(new BorderLayout());
          contentPane.add(leftPanel, "West");
          contentPane.add(rightPanel, "Center");
     public static void main(String[] args)
          JFrame frame = new DragAndDropTest("Drag and Drop Test");
          frame.pack();
          frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.DISPOSE_ON_CLOSE);
          frame.setVisible(true);
}I wrote this code some time ago, so it won't be perfect but hopefully will give you some good ideas.
