How can I run a HDD diagnostic tool on the iPod.

Hi,
According to this page:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93936
There would be a possibility of doing a diagnostic check on the harddrive. However, the page doesn't say how and I didn't find any article explaining how to do it.
I tried reseting the iPod to default settings but when it's done, the Apple logo shows up, then the www.apple.com/support/ipod is shown then the thing turns off.
I don't want to have a brick ipod, please help!

Problem is, most of the test results are pretty meaningless because they're not meant for the end user, just Apple techs.

Ehm, I wasn't referring to you at all... read up,
there's a comment by jschell saying that CGI might be
easier/better for his purposes.
Yep.
I know PHP/Perl/whatever might be easier for some
purposes, but only if you happen to know them and want
to/are able to use them. Ok. But you aren't the one asking the question are you. And the person who asked the question seems to have absolutely no familiarity with Apache or applets.
So whatever they do they are going to have to learn a lot.
And that does indeed suggest that in all likelyhood they have not investigated the alternatives.
And for the vast majority of internet applications, especially with smaller projects (obvious this person is not working with a large team), using perl, or something besides java, is going to be the best business solution. It is simpler, and more secure (probably due to the fact that it is simpler.)
Since this is a Java forum, I
answer under the assumption that people have made a
choice one way or another to use a Java solution to
their problem, so I try to solve it in Java first, and
only when that fails (very seldom) do I turn to other
solutions.You approach problems by arbritrarily deciding to try to solve it in java first and only if you fail do you then look to other solutions?
My first step is to try to figure out which of the various avenues is going to cost less. (And a secondary, but non-trivial concern, is then to convince the customer that just because they have heard of a buzz word like 'enterprise bean' that it doesn't mean that is a cost effective solution.) We must come from different worlds.

How can i run 2 i tunes accounts on the same computer without songs duplicating?

my wife and I both have ipods, how do you run an account each on the same computer without files syncing on both ipods/ libraries?

Using More than One iDevice on the Same Computer
This applies mainly to couples who are adding another device and do not want their email, messages, etc. being duplicated on both devices. To begin read: How to use multiple iPhone, iPad, or iPod devices with one computer. You need to establish a separate Apple ID and password for whomever will use the new iDevice. See Apple - My Apple ID and Frequently asked questions about Apple ID. The easiest way is to do this on the computer using iTunes: iTunes- How to set up an Apple ID within iTunes.
On the computer create a new user account for the person with the new iDevice. This will be the user account that person will always use. He/She will no longer use the other user account. This way that person will have a separate iTunes Library
Start by transferring the new device(s) to a new account along with all your data. Save any photo stream photos that you want to keep to your camera roll (unless they are already in the camera roll) by opening your Photos app, tap on Albums icon at the bottom. Now, tap on My Photo Stream album; tap Select; tap on the photos you want to select;, tap the share icon (box with upward facing arrow) in the lower left corner; then tap Save to Camera Roll.
If you are syncing notes with iCloud that you want to keep then you need to open each of your notes and email them to yourself. Later you can copy and paste the text into new notes created in your new account.
Tap on Settings > iCloud > Delete Account (only deletes it from this device, not from iCloud; the person keeping the current account will not be affected,) provide the password to turn off Find My Phone and choose Keep on My iDevice when prompted. Sign in with a different Apple ID to create your new account. Choose Merge to upload your data.
Once you are on separate accounts, you can each go to icloud.com and delete the other person's data from your account.
Note: The essence of the above was created by user, randers4. I
have made substantial changes to improve readability and syntax.

How can I run two independant LabView applications from the same computer, without taking a performance hit?

I have two identical, but independant test stations, both feeding data back to a Data Acquisition Computer running LabView 6.1. Everything is duplicated at the computer as well, with two E-series multifunction I/O cards (one for each test station) and two instances of the same LabView program for acquiring and analysing the data. The DAQ computer has a Celeron processor w/ 850Mhz clock and 512MB memory, and is running on Windows NT.
I have noticed that when I run both the applications simultaneously, I take a substantial performance hit in terms of processing speed (as opposed to running just one program). Why does this happen and how can I prevent it? (In t
his particular case, it may be possible to combine both the tests into one program since they are identical, but independant, simultaneous control of two different LabView programs is a concept I need to prove out).
Thanks in advance for any tips, hints and spoon feedings (!)....

Depending on your application, you may or may not be able to improve things.
Firstly, each task requires CPU time, so a certain performance difference is guaranteed. Making sure you have a "wait until ms" in every while loop helps in all but the most CPU intensive programs.
Secondly, if you are
1) streaming data to disk
2) Acquiring lots of data over the PCI bus
3) Sending lots of data o ver the network
you can have bottlenecks elsewhere than in your program (limited Disk, PCI or Network bandwidth).
Avoid also displaying data which doesn`t need to be displayed. An array indicator which only shows one element still needs a lot of processing time if the array itself is large.... Best is to set the indicator invisible if this is the case.
I think
it would be best if you could give some more information about the amount of data being acquired, processed and sent. Then maybe it will be more obvious where you can optimise things. If you are running W2000, try activating the task manager while the program(s) are sunning to see where the bottleneck is.

How can I run two different versions of Firefox, the latest does not work with an important site I need to use?

With the latest version of Firefox I cannot send "Quick Mails" to my students using the college's ANGEL system. I had to uninstall it and go to an earlier version. I prefer the newest rev.
Any way to run two different versions. It does not have to be simultaniously. Seems to be a problem on both my Mac and XP systems.
Thanks,
Kim

Currently I don't think there is a way to run two version of firefox at the same time. But you can install Firefox Beta or Aurora instead (which is build for future release for firefox) and help test it! Here's the link:

How can i run Lion, SL and Bootcamp on the same disk?

Hi everyone,
I have an i7 Imac with Lion preinstalled so first of all i installed windows with bootcamp
and then for many reason i had to make a new partition with Snow Leopard using target disk mode from a mbp.
Now the problem is that i can't see anymore my bootcamp partition at the startup disk (when i press alt after the bong).
Even if i try to change startup disk from system preferences it says that the disk is not bootable.
I tryed to make the bootcamp partition active using rdisk fromt he terminal with no succes :/
I hope you guys can help me
Thank you

if you have two hard drives the easiest might be to install panther on the second hard drive. this way you don't have top partition anything. make sure the drive is properly formatted it should be formatted mac os extended journaled with APM partition scheme. then just boot from the Panther install disk and install panther on the second drive. note that this will only work if your mac originally came with panther. did it?
to switch between installs you can change the startup disk in system preferences->startup disk. then reboot. alternatively, reboot normally and hold option at the chime. this will boot you into startup disk manager where you can choose which drive to boot from.

How can I get my music to copy to the iPod Shuffle?

I have a new iPod Shuffle, it shows up under the Devices in my iTunes, but when I Sync it says there is an unkown error and cannot copy the song. It displays this message for every Playlist and every song. My iTunes is current and the software on the Shuffle is current. All the songs play just fine from iTunes on my desktop computer. How can I get my songs to copy?

If you have not done so, you may want to restart your computer.
That message (about the song file not found) means iTunes cannot locate the song file where it expects to find it. Are you sure you can still play the song in iTunes (?), because you may get a yellow exclamation point next to the song, meaning the same thing; iTunes did not find the song file where iTunes expected to find it.
The consolidate command would not help if iTunes can't locate the files.
That might mean they were moved or deleted. If you do a Get Info (from right-click) on one of those songs, the Info window should tell you the expected location of the song file, on the Summary tab next to Where. Follow that path (using Windows) to see if the song file is there.

The computer I was using to sync my iPod crashed how can I transfer my music and audiobooks from the iPod to my new ipad?

The computer I use to sync my iPod crashed. How do I transfer the music and audiobooks to my new ipad?

- Transfer iTunes purchases to the computer by:
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer
- Transfer other music by using a thrird-party program like one of thos discussed here:
Copy music
- Connect the old iPd to the computer and make a backup by right clicking on the iPOd under Devices in iTunes and select Back Up.
- Restore the new iPod from that backup. You will have to reeenter passwords since they only get restored to same device.

How can I run both Leopard and Panther on the same machine?

Hi,
I currently have a Powermac G5 with Leopard running nicely on it. I have 2 hard disks.
What I would like to do is install OS X 10.3 on the machine so that I can switch between the environments - please can someone explain how to do this?
I'm assuming I need to partition one of the hard drives and have done with the second hard disk (not the startup disk), but I'm nervous about what to do from there and really don't want to mess up what I've already got - please help!!
Many thanks.

How can I run multiple midlets in parallel via the raspberry pi cmd line interface?

I am trying to run multiple midlets at the same time on my raspberry pi.
From netbeans point of view I am able to deploy and run them. But for my applications I want to auto start multiple midlets on the raspberry pi.
On the cmd line interface of java me 8 I have commands to install a midlet and run a midlet.
But i am not able to start multiple midlets.
Can someone explain to me how I can do this?

Hi!
Could you please clarify a bit: do you want auto-start behavior of your applications or be able to start them manually via CLI?
Because "auto start" means that applications are started by Java once you start Java itself and in order to make it happen you shall mark your applications appropriately (check MEEP spec for "MIDlet-<n>-Type" application attribute value "autostart"). If this is the case, have you added this attribute?
If you want to run them manually you should be ale to do so via CLI just the same way as you start one application (via "ams-run" command).
Either way, could you also please clarify what are the symptoms of the problem? E.g. on CLI what are the messages you receive back (if start is unsuccessful what is the error message etc).
In addition please mind that there is limit on number of simultaneous VM tasks. If I'm not mistaken by default it is 6: 2 of them are used by system code and each running MIDlet consumes 1 VM task. If you want to increase it please change the value of "MAX_ISOLATES" property in jwc_properties.ini file. The maximum supported value is 16

How can I run Photoshop Elements4 with Windows7. The operating system will not open and run it.

My New computer has windows 7 installed, and it will not open and run my photoshop elements 4 programme. Do I need an upgrade, or can it be run in any other format on this computer.

Did it install and you're just getting errors trying to run it? If so, try clicking on your Start button. Then, go to All Programs, find the entry for Adobe Photoshop Elements 4 and "right click" on it. Select Properties, and in the Properties dialogue click the Compatibility Tab and try running it in XP Compatibility mode and see if it works that way.
If not, then it is really not compatible. Just buy the latest (Photoshop Elelments 9) while they offer $40 mail-in rebate (Ends January 5, 2011)
