Hello and thank you for using the Palm Help Forums!
This is very possible. The easiest way is to beam the programs using bluetooth. Once bluetooth is enabled on both devices, from the main Apps screen, click the upper left hand side of the screen and you should see some menus drop down. Click App then go to send. Select the program you want to transfer and click Send.
Depending on the size of the program you are trying to send will determine how long it will take.
I hope this helps and let me know if you have any further questions.

Sharing a shared network variable between two PC's connected to a network

Sharing a shared network variable between two PC's connected to a network
Surely this shouldn’t be so difficult! I have a little LabVIEW program running in the background of PC1. The exe’s task is to collect and send OPC variables held on a SCADA system and convert them to shared network variables (as I thought that they would be easy to share over a network, easier than the nasty OPC and DCOM issues). I have PC2 which runs measurement studio and I have created a nice test VB program which either writes or reads the network variables which are on PC1. The PC1 collection software is working perfectly and when I change the values on the SCADA system I can see the network variable change on ‘NI Distributed System Manager’. I When I look at ‘NI Distributed System Manager’ on PC2 I can’t see PC1 on the list and when I use the basic measurement studio code below to read the network variable it times out at the TestVariable.connect() line.
Ok so what do I need to do to read a shared network variable sat on PC1 from PC2 on the network

Private WithEvents TestVariable As NetworkVariableSubscriber(Of Double)

Help with Paint program.

Hello. I am somewhat new to Java and I was recently assigned to do a simple paint program. I have had no trouble up until my class started getting into the graphical functions of Java. I need help with my program. I am supposed to start off with a program that draws lines and changes a minimum of 5 colors.

How to sync a iCal calender between two people?

Hello,
I'm trying to find a way to sync a iCal-calender between me and my wife.
We have two apple-computers, and I tried to publish my calender, and then my wife "subscribed" to it. So far everything works ok.
The "only" problem is that the calender is writeprotected in her computer.
My idea was that we should have a calender that is shared between us, so that we could cooperate with info in it. So that both could put info in it.
Could someone please help me out.
/Bernt

Hi,
With iCal you basically have two options: (1) publish and subscribe (as you describe below), where you each share a calendar, which as you point out is "read-only" to the viewer or (2) use a sync service (like .MAC) to keep the calendar synchronized (note: it sync's all of iCal, not just an individual calendar.)
The next version of iCal coming with Leopard is going to support the CalDAV standard, and will allow for better sharing/collaborating with calendars.

Sharing iPhone apps between two accounts on a single mac.

Firstly, apologies if this topic has been covered many times before, I've tried to look, but can't find the exact answer I need.
I have recently purchased two iphones and want to use them on seperate apple ID's - I want different iCloud storage for each phone.
I have a macbook which has two accounts (one for me and one for my wife). When I login to my account I have access to my itunes account and when my wife logins into her account she has access to her itunes account.
I have followed the instructions for sharing musics between two users on the same mac - by moving the itunes media folder to the shared folder on my mac. I have copied everything in that folder (music, movies, apps etc). I have also set up home sharing as I believe that you can share apps between itunes accounts using it. Everything seems to have worked ok in terms of her itunes being able to access the music, movies etc, but the apps don't seem to work properly. I went through the subfolders of the itunes media folder and changed the folder permissions to read and write for everybody (because I was getting a permissions error) and she now has access to the apps that are there (on my itunes account), but the apps that she has downloaded on her phone are not being transferred to the macbook. I've tried the reset warnings suggestion and that hasn't solved the issue.
Am I doing something wrong? Should the apps folder within the itunes media folder not be moved with the music when transferring to the shared folder? Any ideas why music and movies sharing is working ok, but not apps?
Thanks in advance!

This should help:
iTunes: How to share music between different accounts on a single computer
Note that when it says "publicly accessible location", it needs to be a place where everyone has read and write access. The most common such place is the Shared folder in the Users folder.

Need some help with sharing files from a Mac G3 to a Mac G4

I've read through some of the forum comments here and checked with help, but still have a great deal of trouble understanding how to share files between two computers, especially when one has OSX 10.3.9 and the other has 9.2.2. I have these two computers connected with a router, but just can't seem to pass files from my G3 to my G4. All of the instructions I read are very confusing- subnet mask, IP address etc. Is there an area I can go to to get a better understanding? It seems like this shouldn't be very difficult. Is there an inherent problem because of the different systems? Thanks for any help I can get.
Dick Skover

I printed the article from Francine, and followed all of the steps and it just doesn't work. Actually, one of the first steps is to go to AppleTalk under the control panels and select "Connect via Ethernet" which I did, but got a "no zones available in that box and no options shown in that box. Is there a problem with the fact that I am connected through a router? Should I have a direct connection between computers without the router?
I'm also reading the files sharing section of David Pogue's book on OSX The Missing Manual, but still can't get a handle on it. Any further help would be appreciated.

Need help with shared hyperlinks

I need help understanding the shared hyperlink option when creating hyperlinks in InDesign CS5 (Mac) and how to change a shared hyperlink destination.
I want to build a document that contains hyperlinks to files on the client’s server. The end use is to make a PDF in which the client can click on a hyperlink and it opens (for example) a Word document or another PDF on their server. When I started the project, I thought I would create shared hyperlinks because a single server document would be referred to by several links scattered through the InDesign document I was building.
From the Hyperlink palette fly-out menu I chose New Hyperlink, then Link To: File from the dropdown, and I clicked the Shared Hyperlink option, and then OK to close the window. I export the InDesign file as a print PDF, and the hyperlinks work.
Now I need to change the file paths, because the client moved their files to a new location. When I re-open the hyperlink in the Hyperlink palette by double clicking on it, the Edit Hyperlink window opens but it shows my link as:
Link To: Shared Destination (rather than File)
And the destination box underneath shows:
Document: [my document name]
Name [the file path I put in]
However, this link is not editable. I don’t understand why InDesign does this on its own.
I realize now that it was not necessary to tick the shared option when I built the hyperlink. Is there a way (a script? another method?) that I can remove the shared nature of the hyperlinks so that when I go to edit them they show as links to files (Link to: File, not Link to: Shared Destination) with a live Destination Path box where I can edit the link?
(If anyone tries to help with a script, note that my document also contains other hyperlinks to internet URLs and emails that I don’t want to disturb.)
Thanks for your consideration.

Well. I do feel sort of bait-and-switched, but...
I want to get the links back to the point where double clicking on the hyperlink name (number) in the Hyperlink palette opens an Edit Hyperlink dialog where the destination is Link to: File and the file path shows up in the File Path box as an editable string. Just the way I made them in the first place.
It's good that you're comfortable editing the IDML.
If you compare links made both ways in the IDML, the only distinction between the Shared and the not Shared seems to be the hidden attribute of the <HyperlinkURLDestination/> tag.
Allegedly you cannot edit this in Javascript (though you could, I suppose, create a new HyperlinkURLDestination with all the same properties and then chang eeach hyperlink to point to it).
But editing it in the IDML works fine. Open designmap.xml and change the Hidden="false" to Hidden="true". Of course, you only want to do that in the <HyerplinkURLDestination/> tags...
Something about this seems fishy to me, so you might want to verify it yourself in a single case before you put too much effort in. But I think it's right.

Sharing iPhoto Library between Two User Accounts

Is there any way to fully share a single iPhoto library between two user accounts on one machine (iMac 2.0GHz dual core Intel, 10.5.1, iPhoto '08), without using an external drive (because I don't have one)? By share, I mean each user has full rights and priveledges to the entire library, regardless of who uploaded the pics. Holding down the option key on iPhoto startup does not work because my wife can't access the pics I loaded even though she's pointing to the shared library in a shared folder.

If you want the other user to have the same access to the library as you: to be able to add, edit, organise, keyword etc. then:
Quit iPhoto in both accounts
Move the iPhoto Library Folder to an external HD set to ignore permissions. *You could also use a dmg*.
(Some people have had success putting the library in the Users/ Shared folder. If you do this make sure the file permissions are set to allow read/write access to everyone. But that's unlikely to work on 10.5 because of the way that the permissions have changed with the new OS.)
In each account in turn: Hold down the option (or alt) key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting dialogue, select 'Choose Library' and navigate to the new library location. From that point on, this will be the default library location. Both accounts will have full access to the library, in fact, both accounts will 'own' it.
However, there is a catch with this system and it is a significant one. iPhoto is not a multi-user app., it does not have the code to negotiate two users simultaneously writing to the database, and trying will cause db corruption. So only one user at a time, and back up, back up back up.

Sharing itunes purchases between two authorized computers not working

hello,
i currently own two apple laptops and want to be able to play my music that i purchased on one, on the other, as well. i have followed the instructions in other posts that tell me to 1, authorize the new computer, which i have done, and 2, if that works to go into a folder on my drive and delete it out to start fresh, which i have done, as well. however, when i click on the purchased songs, it is still telling me i need to authorize my computer. the computer, as i said, is already authorized.
can anyone help with this?

I'm not sure I understand your second step. Couldn't you use the Home Sharing feature in iTunes 9 to accomplish this, as long as it's enabled for each? Both computers should be authorized with the same iTunes Store account, as you've done.

You can't really believe that his brother did this
for him...I did miss that copyright line at the beginning when
I first looked it over, but you know, if it had been
his brother, I'd be kinda impressed. This wasn't a
25 line program. It actually would have required
SOME thought. I doubt my brother woulda done that
for me (notwithstanding the fact that I wouldn't need
help for that program, and my brother isn't a
programmer).I originally missed the comments at the top but when I saw the complexity of what was written then I knew that it was too advanced for a beginner and I relooked through the code and saw the comments.

Help with Recurrsion program

I seem to be having a little problem with my program. In my main program, depending on which method comes first, the other methods wont work for example the way my main program is not, with occurance method before removeLetter method, the occurance method works fine, but my removeLetter meth won't remove the letter. But if i switch the two and have removeLetter first then it will remove the letter, but my occurance method will come back say the letter is not in the word even when it is...can someone help me? Thanx in advance...
class CharacterRecurrance{
     private int i=0;
     private int occur=0;
     void inString(String s, char n){
          if(i<s.length()){
               if(s.charAt(i)==n)
                    System.out.println("Yes, the letter" + " " + n + " " + "is present");
               else{
                    i++;
                    inString(s,n);
          else System.out.println("No, the letter" + " " + n + " " + "is not present");
     void occurance(String s, char n){
          if(i < s.length()){
               if(s.charAt(i)==n){
                    occur++;
                    i++;
                    occurance(s,n);
               else{
                    i++;
                    occurance(s,n);
          else System.out.println("The letter" + " " + n + " " + "appears" + " " + occur + " " + "times");
     void removeLetter(String s, char n){
          if(i < s.length()){
               if(s.charAt(i)==n){
                    s = s.replace(s.charAt(i),' ');
                    i++;
                    removeLetter(s,n);
               else{
                    i++;
                    removeLetter(s,n);
          else System.out.println(s);
class Program3_10{
     public static void main(String[] a) {
          CharacterRecurrance find = new CharacterRecurrance();
          String word = "mississippi";
          char letter = 's';
          find.inString(word, letter);
          System.out.println();
          find.occurance(word, letter);
          System.out.println();
          find.removeLetter(word, letter);
}

Or make it zero in the last step of each function. Like this-void occurance(String s, char n){
          if(i < s.length()){
               if(s.charAt(i)==n){
                    occur++;
                    i++;
                    occurance(s,n);
               else{
                    i++;
                    occurance(s,n);
          else{
               System.out.println("The letter" + " " + n + " " + "appears" + " " + occur + " " + "times");
               i=0; // reset to zero.
     }

Need help with inventory program!!! someone please help me!!!

Ok I have to write this inventory program for one of my classes.
For part one i needed to Create a product class that holds the item number, the name of product, the number of units in stock, and the price of each unit.
Then create a java application that displays all of the above info plus the total value of the inventory. I have done this so far with success.
For part two i needed to modify the program so the application can handle multiple items. Use an array to store the items. The output should display the information one product at a time including the item number, the name of the product, the number of units in stock, the price per unit, and the value of the inventory of that product. In addition, the output should display the value of the entire inventory.
so create a method to calculate the value of the entire inventory.(i did this)
and create another method to sort the array items by the name of the product. ( i did this)
The program compiles and runs fine except it is not doing anything from part two. It just does the same thing that it did when i wrote part one.
Does anyone know why or what i need to do to my code.
Here is my code.
import java.util.Scanner; // program uses class Scanner
import java.util.Arrays;
class ProductList
Product[] products = new Product[100]; // an array of 100 pruducts

You will get more help if your code is formatted better:
* Only post code that is already formatted correctly including indentations.
* Get rid of all those comments cluttering up your code.
* Make sure your posted code compiles without need for any changes. Yours doesn't at present. Where is the ProductInfo class?
Again, you want it easy for a volunteer here to read your post, otherwise he/she simply won't do it. Good luck.

Help with a Program I am writing! Please!

Hello All,
This is my first post...I hope to find some answers to my program I am writing! A couple things first - I am 17, and have designed a comp. science class for myself to take while a senior in high school, since there was not one offered. My end of the 2nd term project is to write a program that encompasses the information I have learned about for the past two terms. I know the very basics, if that. Please help!
My program involves the simple dice throwing program, 'Dice Thrower' by Kevin Boone. The full text/program write out can be found at:
http://www.kevinboone.com/PF_DiceThrower-java.html
I am hoping to add a part to this program that basically tells the program if the dice show doubles, pop up a little GUI window that says "You are a Winner! You Got Doubles!"
I was thinking as I finished chapter 7 in my text book, that either an 'if/else' or 'switch' statement might be the right place to start.
Could someone please write me a start to the program text that I need to add to 'Dice Thrower', or explain what I need to do to get started! Thank you so much, I really appreciate it.

I know this seems like a lot of errors, but believe it or not, I actually had it up in the high teens and was able to fix some of them myself from going by previous examples, as well as looking things up in my text book. If anyone has any suggestions concerning the syntax errors of the code, please please let me know and I will work my hardest to fix them...thank you all so much for helping.

Help with Shared Libraries?

I don't have a "Look for Shared Libraries" under Preferences > Sharing (which the other two computers in my home do have), all I have is the "Shared Libraries" under Preferences > General > Sources (which this is checked). I have uninstalled iTunes and then installed it again, this did not work. The other two computers in my home are running off of Windows XP, but the trouble computer is running off of Windows Vista. Not sure if this could be the problem. Please help.

krysto wrote:Yes, I have used pacman before to install software, but what if I want to contribute to the development of a project?
Usually when you are developing software you don't install the package every time you compile it. You just make sure that you can run it from the location where you compiled it. That way you can keep the latest stable version that you can use for leisure time and the development version for testing. Also for contributing to a project you should directly interact with the project's repository (svn, git, ...). So I refer back to my first post here where the PKGBUILD can give you an idea how to go about compiling the source code yourself.
Just don't run "make install" because that will leave your system in a messy state, a simple "make" (with the proper configuration) should result in a locally build binary that you can run from where it was compiled.
