How Can I Get Text Edit To Restore It's Previous Work Space?

I was having some buggy behavior on my MBP, and finally had to do a fresh install of OSX.
I was using 10.8.2 on the old setup, and the same now in the fresh install.
In order to NOT import any settings that were causing the bad behavior, I only migrated in my Applications.
On my old system, (before the fresh install) when I quit TextEdit I did not have to save any of the open docs, they would just be there as I left them restored when I relaunched it.
Now when I try to quit it asks me if I want to save the untitled docs, or lose them.
And now, when I launch the app, it opens a new blank text window.
I would really like TextEdit to automatically open all the previously opened documents, and not ask to save them.
Any advice?

It was staring me, well, in the face.
System Preferences: General
I'm actually kinda' embarrased... But then again, no one else had the answer either!
As a side note, the way I got to finally figuring it out, was when I launched Safari directly, it would restore the previous workspace.
But, when Safari would launch from a link in Mail, it would only open that single page, and I had to restore the workspace manually.
I then realized it was more system wide, which lead me to System Preferences!

How can I get photos edited in iPhoto to update previously uploaded images in photo stream?

As soon as I import photos to iPhoto on my mac they upload to photostream, which is great, exept when I edit them (for example to remove red eye) they don't update on the photostream so when I look on my iPad they are the origanal photos. Can anyone tell me if there is a way of refreshing the pictures on the photostream with the latest edit. I have tried editing the photostream version but it takes me to the version in my iPhoto library which has already been edited. Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.

You can't do this.
Photostream is simply - and only - a replacement for importing. Once the file is imported them that's it. Photstream has no further role.

How can I get the edited pictures from the thumbnails to full size?

I upgraded to iPhoto 11, the thumbnail photos show my previous edits, but when I click on the photo to make it bigger, it reverts back to the unedited, original picture. How can I get the edited pictures from the thumbnails to full size?

Verify you are using iPhoto11 ver 9.5
if not run the >Software update or check your apps folder and make sure the correct iPhoto is launched, not an older ver.

How can I get the edited value from the editor in JTable

I have a JTextField added as an editor to a cell in JTable.
I value gets changed when I press enter.
but in actionPerformed of the JTextField when I say
String txtEditorValue = txtEditor.getText();
I am getting the old value. How can I get the edited value? Thanks.

Hi,
I guess, your understanding of how JTable works together with its models is not good enough - for example the method getTableCellEditorComponent(...) of the TableCellEditor interface is used to get the component, that should be used as editing component - its second parameter is a value that should be used to setup the editing component - it is normally not the editing component itself.
JTable uses an underlying TableModel to store the cell values - if you have edited a cell, JTable gets the value of the editing component by itself and stores it in the TableModel using its setValueAt(...) method. To retrieve this data you only need to query the TableModel using row and column of this cell as parameters
say jt is your JTable, and row and column are the row and column of the cell - so to get the value, simply use
Object obj = jt.getModel().getValueAt(row,column);
if you know, that there is a String in this cell use
String str = (String) jt.getModel().getValueAt(row,column);
The editor component is used for the view of the JTable - you only want the data, which is stored in the model - you don't have to deal with the GUI components in this case.

Iphone4 would not restore Error -50. I have tried to restore and it restored it to the point that it created after 5.0 was installed. How can I get it an older restore point from my backups and restore it on another computer? The phone has been wiped out.

Iphone would not restore---- Error -50. I have tried to restore, and it restored it to the new point that it created after 5.0 was installed. How can I get it an older restore point from my backups and restore it on another computer? The phone has been wiped out. I can see earlier backups in my C:\Documents and Settings\user\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup folder. There are four subfolders in this address. I need my contacts, photos, and messages back. I know this is a common error but I can not figure it out. I have ran the other troublshoot items in the error steps for 13 and 14 like apple says. Is there a way to call apple and get a step by step of how to restore from another restore point? Does anybody have a solution????

It tells you to go to Error 13 and 14 if you receive error (-50).
Here is what I have tried...
Error 13 and 14: These errors are typically resolved by performing one or more of the steps listed below:
Perform USB isolation troubleshooting, including trying a different USB port directly on the computer. See the advanced steps below for USB troubleshooting. I have moved it around to different ports.
Put a USB 2.0 hub between the device and the computer. Didn't change anything.
Try a different USB 30-pin dock-connector cable.
Eliminate third-party security software conflicts. Removed all virus protection and firewall.
There may be third-party software installed that modifies your default packet size in Windows by inserting one or more TcpWindowSize entries into your registry. Your default packet size being set incorrectly can cause this error. Contact the manufacturer of the software that installed the packet-size modification for assistance. Or, follow this article by Microsoft: How to reset Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) to reset the packet size back to the default for Windows.Used the Microsoft fix it.
Connect your computer directly to your Internet source, bypassing any routers, hubs, or switches. You may need to restart your computer and modem to get online. Doesn't matter.
Try to restore from another known-good computer and network. I do not know how to do this or how to find the correct/full/complete restore point. There should be more information for this.

I always have trouble with my mailbox. It is always asking for my passwords but everything has been verified. How can I get it to stop doing it and start working????

I always have trouble with my mailbox. It is always asking for my passwords but everything has been verified. How can I get it to stop doing it and start working????

There is only one thing that happens -- the Server does not respond.
Your mac concludes that you must have entered the wrong password. That may happen once, but then other issues become more likely, and it keeps asking for a new password.
Sometimes the Server is down for maintenance. Sometimes something is configured wrong. Some services do this on purpose to get you to use WebMail (pick up your Mail with your Browser) so they can show you some ads.

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
See > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5404 AirPlay Mirroring is compatible with Mid 2011 and newer MacBooks Air, and OS X Mountain Lion.
As you have Mac OS X Snow Leopard, you haven't got a compatible MacBook Air, so you can't use AirPlay Mirroring. However, you can use a third-party app as AirParrot to mirror the MacBook onto your Apple TV > http://www.airparrot.com

Hi Michael-
I do not have any problem with using shift registers in timed loops. What version of LabVIEW are you using? Can you please elaborate on why neither shift registers or local variables meet your needs? I have attached a VI that saves a previous iteration and then computes and displays the difference. Let me know if you have problems running it.
Thanks-

How can I get Tex-Edit + to operate correctly again?

In June of this year I got help in this forum on how to use Tex-Edit+ to italicize some text in parentheses. HD came up with a script that worked with Tex-Edit + and was shown in the Thread "How can I get Applescript to work correctly again."
I tried to apply the same script to another document but I can't get it to work this time. The procedure requires copying the document to a Tex-Edit + window. I get this window by opening Tex-Edit + and selecting "New". When I copy the document to this window, the type becomes larger and is colored blue. When I try to run the Tex-Edit + script, it returns "Cannot open document 1". I am making some kind of mistake but I don't know what it is.
Would appreciate comments.

Yvan-- Good idea. Here's the script:
"I don't know why this is happening. But I would recommend that if you have a large document to process, you get Tex-Edit Plus (not TextEdit), copy and paste the contents of your original document AppleWorks document into a new Tex-Edit Plus window, and use the following script instead:
tell application "Tex-Edit Plus"
tell document 1
replace looking for "^c" replacing with "rrparmarkrr"
replace looking for "(" replacing with "^cxxbeginitalsxx("
replace looking for ")" replacing with "^cxxenditalsxx)"
set parcount to count paragraphs
repeat with x from 1 to parcount
if paragraph x begins with "xxbeginitals" then set style of paragraph x to italic
end repeat
replace looking for "^cxxenditalsxx" replacing with ""
replace looking for "^cxxbeginitalsxx" replacing with ""
replace looking for "rrparmarkrr" replacing with "^c"
end tell
end tell
Almost instantaneous..."

As noted, this script worked fine on the first document I tried. (I pasted it into a Script Editor window.) With the second document, it doesn't work properly, as I explained in the first post above.
I don't know what I'm doing wrong.

Help filling out PDF - How can I get text to fit in text boxes?

I need to fill out an application that is in the PDF format.

In other words, some of the text doesn't show.

How can I get the text to fit in the box?

Thank you so much for your help, try67!
Was hoping for a solution on my end, but judging by your MVP status, you seem to now what you're doing! :-)
