Highlighting TEXT - not the field - and clearing the set value for a new one

I have a form in which various text fields are set with a message to inform the user as to what kind of information I want typed in. My goals are:
1. Have the text get highlighted so when the user starts typing, the "old" value gets replaced with the "new"
2. Or, when the user tabs or clicks in the field all of the "old" value is deleted and they can start typing the "new" value from the beginning of the field.
I am trying to eliminate having to manually highlight the field in order to type in the needed information. But each field needs to start with a value so the user knows what kind of information I am looking for.
Does this make sense? By the way, I have no JavaScript experience...uh oh!

Use the Media Manager (under the File menu bar item).

Creating a dynamic query by choosing the field and getting the report

Hi,
Is there a way to create a report by allowing the user to choose a field from the table and design a query based on that field.
Ex In a table students with fields
(StudentNo, StudentName,Age,Qualification,Hobbies, PlaceofBirth)
Is it possible to generate a query
select * from students where Hobbies=programming;
where the user can be given the option of selecting the field and the value (Hobbies, programming), the query is generated for that, then the report is designed for that query. How could the query be generated?
Regards,
Reshma

You sure can ;)
Here's an example.
You can create a JComboBox and have the different categories of hobbies in there and then use ActionListener on the JcomboBox.
The code will be something like this
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent ae)
if(ae.getSource()==combo)    //assuming the JComboBox object is combo
    String query=new String("");
    String st = combo.getSelectedItem().toString();
    Connection connection=DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:odbc:DSN","user","password");
    Statement stmt=connection.createStatement();
    String qry="SELECT * FROM tablename WHERE hobby=";
    String query=qry+st;
    ResultSet rs=stmt.execute(query);     //Then do whatever you want with the ResultSet object
}

Can you swap out the logicboard of an older model mac for a newer one?

So i just bought a mac on ebay, its in good working condition, however i was wondering if i was able to swap out an older model logicboard for a new one. The mac i currently have is a unibody mac, MB466LL/A, and the logic board i was looking to possible switch it out with would be the (Logic Board 661-6158 820-2936-B.) Let me know if this is possible. Work on computers often and have built many pc's so that aspect will not be a problem, im just wondering if this request is feasible.

Yes, its possible.
Step one: Buy a second, fully working MacBook of the model you want.
Step two: Sell the first MacBook you bought.

Yes, as long as the power supply has the requirements as needed (maybe you need a new one or an adapter).
Depends on the model - see here.

Can I recover text messages from an old Iphone that has now been wiped? Some of my messages got lost in between the process of turning my old phone in for a new one-which I have since restored from a backup a few days old

In the process of exchanging my defunct Iphone for a new one, some important text messages were lost. The messages obviously did not transfer over to my new phone as I had to restore my new phone from a backup performed a few days ago. Is there a special trick that will allow me to somehow enter my cell number, since it is still the same, in order to recover texts that were received in between wiping my old phone and getting a new one?

You can use an iPhone file explorer such as TouchCopy to get the messages off the old phone. But you can't put them on the new phone as messages. You could put them in a pdf file that you could read on the new phone.
Normally when you get a new phone the first thing you should do is transfer the contents of the old phone to it (Transfer content from an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to a new device - Apple Support)). Then the problem does not arise. You are even prompted to do this when you activate the new phone. Once you have started using the new phone without doing this it is too late.
To tell Apple your concern go to http://apple.com/feedback. This is a user to user forum; Apple does not read or participate in it.

I can't add a scene, I don't know why. I have finished making a scene and I'm trying to start a new one but the option to insert a scene is not highlighted so I cannot carry on please help

you can't use scenes in html5 projects.
that's also no significant limitation because there's never a situation (afaik) where you need to use scenes. they are strictly a convenience for designers.
i don't know any programmers that use scenes.

Hi Guys!
I'm German, so my english writing might not be perfect
I had the same Issue on a 5 i bought. Exact same screen and writing. Battery was totally drawn, first thing I had to replace. The screen had been replaced and since then it wouldn't work anymore according to the previous owner.
It took me a couple hours, after recieving a few errors like 4013 it just never completed the restore, got really hot as well. The Flexwire of the Dock Connector seemed damaged, replaced the dock, but that didn't help.
I almost gave up, thought the Logic Board was bad.
BUT! Then i deceided to check if it has anything to do with the Screen assembly, and it did.
Long story short, on mine the front facing camera, and sensor assy were bad.
Anyhow, the phone works ''perfect'' when i leave them unplugged. So I just ordered a new one and we will see if thats the problem or if the damage is in the Logic Board.
If so, i can live without the sensor and front cam.
Just wanted to share, good luck everyone.

Is there any way to search for a term using the Firefox search field, and have the results automatically open in a new tab?

Is there any way to search for a term using the Firefox search field, and have the results automatically open in a new tab? When there was support for Google Toolbar, I was able to do this; now, whenever I want to search for something, I have to open a new tab to do it, and cut-and-paste my search into the search field in the new tab. I used to be able to highlight, drag, and drop something into the search field and have it automatically open in a new tab. This is enough for me to switch to Chrome . . .

Set a preference to have searches from the Search Bar (upper right) automatically open all searches in a new tab
#type '''about:config''' in the URL/Location/Address bar and press the Enter key
#if you see a warning, accept it (promise to be careful)
#Filter = '''browser.search.openintab'''

Required field, UPC, is missing. Please add UPC to the listing and retry the operation.

What to do about this: "Required field, UPC, is missing. Please add UPC to the listing and retry the operation." ? We sell cassette tapes and sometimes they are are of a vintage that predates upc codes.

forester_studios wrote:OK thanks for the input; but selecting 1 item leaves the other 4 or 5 unsearchable I would think. Seems like a typical ebay answer (which is not much better than no answer as far as problem solving goes). I have to wonder if ebay thought this new requirement through. Often upc codes on Canadian items are not in ebays system at all. So are these items which have upc codes un-listable since ebay does not acknowledge they exsist? In that case, here is what I intend to do.... List the most important item's UPC in the actual required UPC field and then create as many other 'custom' item specific UPC fields as are allowed. You need to be on the long form selling form to do it. Call them Other UPC and Even More UPC or something. And then, just to be sure, I'll list all the UPCs in the item description. Buyers probably won't search for UPC (unless they're standing in a retail store with their smartphone in hand and looking for cheaper pricing online) but search engines do. When I look for the products that I sell on google, I get amazon results 19 times before I see one from eBay. I'm certain that's the UPC talking there. We do need Product Identifiers on eBay. Implementing them is the difficulty. Ebay is aware that the UPC for Canadian packages may be different than the exact same in an American one. I've raised it and was told they were looking into it. Use the MPN identifiers too. Pretty much nothing I list can be found in the product catalogue on ebay.ca (is there one?) so I don't know what to expect for resolution there if and when the Catalogue version of the Product Identifiers are shown to be clearly wrong but I know it happens, here and elsewhere. The last order that I placed with Amazon had a new UPC pasted over an old, similar product. It was not what I ordered. Close but no cigar. Hopefully, when all of this becomes 'official' in two weeks, there will be a timely manner to address item misinformation within the Product Catalogue. In the meantime, I would state all the item properties in the Item Description area to cover my butt.

Try turning the account off and on : Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars , then tap the account on the right, slide Mail to 'off', exit settings and go back into the Mail app, and then go back to Settings and slide Mail back to 'on'
If that doesn't work then try closing the Mail app completely : from the home screen (i.e. not with the Mail app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Mail app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
Also do a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

I have a PowerBook G4 with a non-functioning monitor. It used to work with an external monitor, but I reinstalled the OS, which cleared the display preferences and now when I restart it won't detect the external monitor. This means I can't use the computer anymore. How do I fix? I tried using the Command+F2 keyboard shortcut, but it doesnt' work. It's possible that since I reinstalled the OS, it still needs to be set up, so there's only a welcome screen (but since I can't see it I'm not sure).

How can I start anew with Photos and clear the (minimal) stuff it has uploaded

I've about had it up to here with this new Photos scheme. I reorganised my Aperture libraries on both my iMac and MBA in preparation for this, delayed turning Photos on for a couple of days until I thought everything was ready based upon the limited advice that was out there, and then got stuck in an endless loop of "uploading" and "preparing" every time I opened Photos. There are 19,975 images in my Aperture library on the iMac. I was stuck at Uploading at anywhere between that number and 19,000 with no progress after hours of waiting. I tried all the tricks mentioned here including re booting, restarting the app, repairing/rebuilding the database, killing the "cloudd" process, etc.today Today when I restarted Photos, it now said I had 23,775 images to upload- 4000
more than I have-and of course it got stuck there, like it has for the last week.
I copied the previous Aperture library (pre Photos migration)back to my iMac and opened it in Aperture. Thankfully, all the photos I had taken on my iPhone this week during this Photos clusterphuck transition were in the Aperture Stream so I didn't lose any of those. I'm willing to give this whole thing one more shot. So i need some advice. How can I start anew with Photos and clear the (minimal) stuff it has uploaded (about 6000 of 19,000 images in the last 7 days) ? If I simply delete the Photos.photolibrary file will that do the trick and lt me start a new fresh library using?

It is hard to say from your post, why the migration did not succeed in your case.
by "stuck on upload" do you mean, you opened the Aperture library in Photos, and Photos converted it to a Photo Library, and then the upload to iCloud Photo Library did hang? Or did already the upgrade to the Photo Library fail?
If you want the Aperture library to upload to iCloud Photo Library, it needs to be on a disk formatted MacOS Extended (Journaled) and the original image files must not be referenced. Referenced originals will not upload.
Also, the upload may hang, if you do not have enough free iCloud storage, orr if one of the videos or photos in your library is in an unsupported format or corrupted.
To start over, try to repair and rebuild the Aperture library before opening it in Photos. Try all Aperture Library First Aid options - starting with repairing the permissions. (Repairing and Rebuilding Your Aperture Library: Aperture 3 User Manual)
If I simply delete the Photos.photolibrary file will that do the trick and lt me start a new fresh library using?
You will have to delete the photos that are already in icloud too; otherwise you are risking duplicates.
Can you launch Photos at all? If yes, delete all photos in Photos and empty the Recently Deleted album. Wait for the deletion to sync to iCloud. Then delete the Photos.photolibrary.
