How to deploy manually the Smart Ticket1.1 from the JavaBluePrints?

Hi,
I will like to know that how to deploy the Smart Ticket1.1 which from the JavaBluePrints with the use of J2EE1.4 SDK?
I had deployed the .ear file under the Enterprise Applcation. However, the problem is how to establish the database connection on it?
Thanks...

Smart ticket 1.1 uses CMP for DB access.
You should be able to tweak in deploytool and change the connection pool via the admin gui or the cli.
I would post your questions going forward to the blueprints alias from java.net going forward (project under the enterprise community)

How to Turn Off the Smart measurements box off in CS4 MAC

We just switched to CS4 at the office and I found a new anoying feature to me. When I resize or move a box in the page, a black box with measurement appears near my cursor. I truned off the "smart guide" in view and I un-checked all the smart guide option. Please tell me how to took that off please!

I agree with Sandee that the transformation values are a great feature, and I wouldn't think of turning it off. It's not accessible from the contextual menu, only from preferences.
Robert, holding down the Control key on the Mac (after you start moving an object), disables the display of smart guides, but not of transformation values. The only way to turn off transformation values is to turn off the preferences Sandee mentions in post #1.

How to/What is the best way to do a game speed rate...

I've been trying to do a game for J2ME, but i realized that some actions like moving the sprite around would need to do things like "thread.sleep(etc)" if i want to actually see it moving, i've tried to do directily and nothing happened on screen, or happened so fast that i didn't see. But as far as i went trying to do something to work i couldn't come with a good solution for my problem. I did one that "worked" but i could only get the ship to fire one shot at time that would move on screen, as soon as i shoot again the other sprite would stop moving and became stuck on screen.
So please, anyone know a good sample that can give me a path to follow? I'm sorry i don't have the codes anymore i modified and right now i have a non working code and totally diferent from before.
Thank you.

I don't do J2ME, but the best way I've run across is offscreen rendering and javax.swing.Timer
If there is an equivalent in J2ME I highly recommend it.

Is to ask a question the only way to create an account on mozilla support?

It seems so.
I started looking at a question (https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1012153) and wanted to reply. No luck with that. Not on the 'sign in' page (https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/users/auth), not anywhere else. I've been looking for a couple of minutes.
Besides, passwords with numbers (which you enforce) are not necessarily more secure: http://xkcd.com/936/

Do you think that this is acceptable usability?
Viewing a question, I have to click 'Mozilla', 'Volunteer' (?!?) and scroll down quite a bit to create an account? How am I supposed to guess that the 'create account' functionality is hidden there?
Compare this to other sites. How many clicks do you need on the first attempt to create an account at:
http://www.dell.com/support/article/us/en/19/SLN143153/en
http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-8/install-latest-update-windows-8-1
http://edition.cnn.com/2014/12/10/showbiz/sag-awards-nominees/index.html
Now, go to some non-tech people and tell them to create an account, viewing https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1012153.
TL;DR:
Add a 'create account' button to the 'sign in' page. From nowhere on support.mozilla.com any non-tech person should need more than 10 seconds to see the signup form.

Updating to iOS 7; the Smart Way!

Heya! For anyone who has not yet installed iOS 7 on their device, here's a few tips on how to optimize your update experience:
First things first! Keep in minf that there are peaks times during which people are not only updating, but restoring their device, activating it, or activating services like FaceTime and iMessage. During these times, you might encounter errors in reaching the Apple update server. Just remember, perserverence and patience! Keep on trying!
Now on to the updating!
1.) Install the latest version of iTunes (version 11.1). I recommend doing so by going to apple.com/iTunes and downloading iTunes again from there, even if you already have it installed.
2.) Turn off Find My iPhone. Since iOS 7 will have activation lock, which I do believe requires a passcode or password of some sort, you don't want that to be on as soon as you begin setting up the device with its new iOS 7 on it. And it will be turned on if you leave Find My iPhone turned on.
3.) Connect your device to iTunes and back it up, or perform an iCloud backup. Just remember, if using iCloud backup for the first time, this could take a LOOOONG time!
4.) After backing up, you might also need to transfer purchases to the computer from the iPhone (or whatever iOS device you have). You do this in iTunes by clicking File, then click Devices, then click Transfer Purchases From (your iPhone's name).
5.) You can also sync Contacts, Calendars, Notes, and other important personal data to an approved program on your computer, or you can sync with iCloud. I recommend doing this not only before an update or restore, but as a general routine, same as backing up your iPhone. Apple even has a support article on how to save your data! http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1296?viewlocale=en_US
6.) Click Update! Have a tasty beverage, read a magazine, tuck your kids into bed, whatever tickles your fancy. Even with a good internet connection and a nifty new computer, the software download and update process might take a while. A nap is also a good idea!
7.) Set up your device, if needed. Sometimes you'll need to set up your iPhone from the backup you just created again. Go through the setup process as you normally would and choose the backup you want to use.
8.) Sync or redownload (you can see how in this link: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519) any missing content.
9.) Enjoy! Play around with and get the feel for iOS 7 and you'll be loving it in no time! If there's a feature that's been changed or is missing, Apple's got a great way to let their Engineers know your feelings about it! apple.com/feedback
If anyboday has problems and they can't be solved via discussions, go to getsupport.apple.com and you should be able to work your way through the prompts to get the various Apple contact methods. They're usually really nice and don't mind t help out!
Thanks for taking a look!

Wups, forgot the 4S doesn't have LTE. I was thinking of my Ipad 3rd gen. My friend is stuck using the 4G signal now though which constantly drops.

When using a Foscam FI8910W IP Camera, how do I get the 2-way audio function to work? I have VLC as a video app in my applications folder. I am running OSX 10.8

Again, I am on a 2011 MBP, running OSX 10.8.4, and I use VLC as my default player. I bought a Foscam FI8910W Pan&Tilt camera, which has 2-way audio capability through the browser. I have looked online and the only people who have this camera who can also use their audio functions are those individuals who are on a PC running IE. The Foscam website says to fix this issue I must download VLC player. I had VLC before I ever heard of Foscam. Still no audio. When I sign onto my IP camera by inputting the IP address, the user name, and the encryption password, I can then view the camera. At the bottom, it has a URL that says (audio). Clicking this does only one thing - it tells me that I need a plug in to have audio support. The plugin is the VLC player. So I am back at square one. Please help.

I just went to the IP address to access my camera's software; however, there is no mention of audio settings or anything called ADPCM. The included software (CD) does not work with 10.8 - a fact left out by the manufacturer
In regards to .wav files as you had previously mentioned, I have only 6 (.wav) files on my Mac that could be located using finder. They are all involved with my MacMail application. I could not find any other .wav file.

How to import video the right way

how do i import video so it will look like in VLC player?

Ok - your original is 720x480 -- but it is obvious from the distortion in FCPX that it is *anamorphic*. You need to manually set up a Custom project and select NTSC DV ; 720 x 480 DV Anamorphic ; 29.97 (p or i... I can't tell from the image if the original is progressive.) Then, when you apply your clip to the storyline, it *should* be in the correct aspect ratio...

I can't figure out how to ask if the size of the arraylist is equal to sqrt

This is what I have so far. I need to cofirm that the size of the array is equal to a square root. But I don't know enough to figure out how to do that. Maybe I shouldn't use an if?
Help?
Thank you
import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.Scanner;
public class SquareTester
private ArrayList <Integer> magic;
* Constructor for objects of class SquareTester
public SquareTester()

System.out.println("Enter value for magic square: ");
int input = in.nextInt();
ArrayList<Integer> magic = new ArrayList<Integer>();
boolean continueLoop = true;
while (continueLoop)
magic.add(input);
System.out.println("Enter the value 000 when you are through ");
System.out.println("Enter next value ");
input = in.nextInt();

How do you use the smart guitar without the notes sounding odd

i cant play any real notes that sound good on this app for itouch can someone give me some pointers

Sorry if I'm not being clear. Here's a simple example: I'd like to fit the square with the black circle on the top side of the cube:
With transform tool, I'm limited by the bounding box and cannot drag the corners of the square to the cube's top corners:
With envelope distort, when I drag a corner point the edges become warped:
This can easily be done in Photoshop. I can drag the corners to distort the square:
How can this easily be done in Illustrator CC 2014?

I'm frustrated with the bookmarks. I so long to be able to right click on any bookmark and choose to have them in alphabet order. Would also like for the little icons to go away. Never been able to figure out how to do this the MAC way. Help.

I am frustrated with the Bookmarks. I want so much to be able to right click and alphabetize the list. It's been a year and I can get my mind around the process that's there. Also I'd love for those pesky little icons to disappear. Help me please.

After the release of Firefox 29, several people noticed that after using the Customize feature, most items on the right-click menu for the Bookmarks menu on the menu bar became ''grayed out'' and unusable until you closed and started Firefox back up again. That seems to still be a problem for me in Firefox 36.0.4, so if you used Customize, that could be the explanation.
You still should be able to click and drag bookmarks around the menu even with the broken right-click context menu.
And if it's easier than restarting, the context menu still works in the Bookmarks Sidebar (Ctrl+b to open/close) and Library dialog (Ctrl+Shift+b or "Show All Bookmarks").
