while True:
and just indent everything else under it
Ends when you press ^C.
if you wish to have a way to break out of the loop, say, when you press enter at the VPC number without entering anything, add the following after your vpc input:
if not vpc:
break
which will break out of the while loop and end your program.

  • How can I stop my screen from going on and off when I play games ?

    HOw can I stop my screen from going on and off all the time when I touch it.

    Maybe it is a hardware problem, but you will not know that unless you start eliminating all possible software issues. Try this. Close all apps in the recents tray and reboot your iPad.
    Tap the home button once. Then tap the home button twice and the recents tray will appear at the bottom of the screen. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button twice.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

  • How can I find duplicate photos without going through all 5000  one at a time?

    How can I find duplicate photos withough going through all 5000 one by one?  I have numerous duplications and used to be able to click on Edit and Find Duplicates and could clean up all the duplicates easily.  Now that option is gone.  I still have lots to delete.

    I do backup everything using Carbonite.Please don't tell me it is bad, too :-)  Also, especially with photo files, I do have other backups of those I am concerned about. Probably not the best in the world, but a log better than many people who I know about.
    Again, I really have not seen any problems with MacKeeper.  I imagine that if people do not read and follow instructions, they could have problems. For example, it is possible to scan all your files and see them in order of size. If you start deleting things, without knowing what you're deleting, you could cause trouble. Even when the computer scans for so-called junk files, you can look at them and decide for yourself if they are truly junk. I've never seen any that were not.
    So, I will look at the complaints anyway to see them. I am open to change, although I hope I do not need to drop Mackeeper as it does things like keeping tracking of applications updates that I need. Please note that I definitely am not a MacKeeper employee or anything close. Just using it and happy with the the results.
    I did download the recommend file for finding photo dupes and ran it.  There were very few duplicates, in any case, As I said before, the MacKeeper dupe finder was very slow when I ran it over ALL my files. That was a year ago and it did find many non-text dupes.

  • In Lion, running on an i MAC (late 2006), how can I stop certain programs from automatically starting up when I start my MAC?

    In Lion, running on an I MAC, (late 2006), how can I stop certain programs (iTunes, Word) from automatically starting up when I start the computer?

    Any application that is open when you shut down will re-open when you restart unless you deselect this when shutting down/restarting:
    Also check System Preferences>Users & Groups>Login items tab and make sure there's nothing listed there that you don't want launched.

  • How can I stop my Macbook from going to sleep whilst I load the operating system (10.5) on?

    I'm trying very unsuccessfully to reinstall the system from scratch, so that I have a clean computer. I'm starting with 10.5 and then going to upgrade in increments from that to the last operating system the computer will run, which is 10.6.8.
    Firstly I've wiped the hard disk in Disk Tools and then started it up from the master disk of 10.5, and its telling me it will take 64 hours and some minutes to install, so I can't keep moving the mouse to stop it going to sleep for that long.
    I know it sounds as though something is wrong, but I have run both Disk Tools and Tech Tool Pro through it and both say there's nothing wrong with either the computer or the hard disk, and it was running fine (if slow - but that's its age!) prior to this clean install.
    This computer is the first of the intel Macbooks and is a single core intel processor with 1gb of Ram.
    What I need to do is to stop it going to sleep during the install, as every time it does it just halts the install and over night, for instance, I'm no further forward than I was the night before, even though I left it going all night.
    All I'm trying to do is get it to 10.6.8 so that I can run Bootcamp on it and turn it into a PC to do my accounts (and no, the software we use only runs on PC, but Paralles, VMWare Fusion etc still make it painfully slow to use, and It's bad enough having to do accounts without having to wait for it to do every move...)
    I can't go straight to 10.6 as the only copies we have of this are "drag and drop" upgrades that Apple supplied with 3 of our other Macs. Also the computer won't read dual layer DVDs (too old) so I can't load the full copy we have made of the OS.

    It's simply called Photos and there is no options/setting thing on it. I have windows 8, it's a stand alone photo library viewer.

  • How can we stop jre 7 from blowing us all out of the water?

    I would like to put forth a issue that greatly concerns me which is java 7. In recent times, some browsers have summarily decided that
    they only allow calls to "current" versions of java. So in Mozilla's mindset, the only current version of java now is 6. It is questionable how
    feasible it is for someone to manage to get firefox to call an "older" plugin like 1.5, 1.4 or 1.3. Sounds like it requires a lot of manual
    configuration on each user's pc. Mozilla has put out conflicting advice on this topic.
    http://kb.mozillazine.org/Java#Switching_Java_versions_-_Advanced
    http://plugindoc.mozdev.org/faqs/java.html#Issues
    So my big concern is that when java 7 is released, Mozilla and other browser vendors can then decide 7 is the current version and make
    it nearly impossible to call java 6. Which would be terrible. Oracle would take a fine amount of time to certify 7 and only certify it on the
    most recent versions of the software. I forsee great pain and suffering amongst the customers on this. How can this be prevented?
    (And why doesn't oracle write it's own browser? If you write your own browser you are free from worrying about this nonsense. Also
    the enterprise browser should only connect to enterprise resources and not be used for arbitrary web surfing by the users. Need a way
    to restrict such a program.)
    http://java.com/en/download/faq/firefox_newplugin.xml
    "Starting with Firefox 3.6, Java-based applications will NOT work unless you are running Java version 6 Update 10 or newer. "
    "Starting in Firefox 3.6, Mozilla foundation will drop support on OJI (Open Java Virtual Machine Integration) and will only support the standard NPAPI and NPRuntime interfaces. The Java Plug-in which is in Java version 6 update 10 or newer versions supports the NPAPI and NPRuntime interfaces. Therefore, starting with Firefox 3.6, Java-based applets will NOT work unless you are running Java version 6 Update 10 or newer"

    From the java download page:
    J2SE 5.0 reached its End of Service Life (EOSL) on November 3, 2009, which is the date of the final publicly available update of version 5.0 (J2SE 5.0 Update 22). So not only Mozilla thinks that Java 6 is the only version, even the vendor of java (oracle) thinks that.
    Why is it so that everybody thinks that software from the previous millennium (like JInit) of course has to work with software of this millennium (like firefox 3.6)?!? JRE 1.5 is desupported for nearly 2 Years now....and don't get me started on JInitiator which basically was released 11 years ago, but surely you will find someone who has a company standard of IE8 and JInit (and mutters why this does not work anymore). Now there comes the argument that they don't want to upgrade their forms servers or what ever else because they are afraid that the newer version does not work anymore, but surely they are update happy with their browsers, aren't they? So why just move foreward with parts of the configuration?
    If you look here you may notice that JRE 1.6 will reach EOL in 2012 (2013 with Java for Business) which is about the same time when Forms 10g will reach EOL, so you not only won't get new certifications with forms 10g, you also won't get new Security Patches etc. for forms 10g. This is a perfect reason why to move on to a newer version in both cases.
    I am working for a software vendor myself, and I perfectly understand why software vendors throw away compabilities and start desupporting software after a certain amount of time. If we didn't I still would have to develop my PL/SQL code so it operates flawlessly on Oracle 7 as there were surely customers out there which insisted that this version of the database runs so stable in their site, and they don't need to update as the old database software runs well. And not only that, but the point in time when it takes you longer to actually find the affected versions and patch the fix of a critical bug in all those versions takes longer than finding the bug itself (been there, done that) it is time to throw some old versions out of the window, desupport them and clean the trunk code.
    Bottom line is: if you want to keep one part of your software Jurassic you better keep the whole configuration at the same age. Old software is never meant to run against software from 10 years in the future, and in the opposite it is quite an impossible task to write an infinite backward compatible software.
    cheers

  • How can you stop a picture from going to Photostream?

    Hi,
    Please pardon the delicate nature of this question..it is not meant to be salacious.
    However, I cannot figure out WHY anyone would use photostream. Like any number of normal people, my IOS device might ocassionally take pictures that I do not want to be uploaded to photostream, and certainly NOT shared with other family devices.
    As I understand it, If I have Photostream enabled, any time I take a picture with my IOS device, I have NO WAY to stop it from going immediately to photostream or being synced on other computers or IOS devices?!?
    Given this beheavior, and my understandign of how it works, why would anyone ever sync their photos to Photostream?
    Aren't there a LOT of instances where you might be using your phone to take pictures that you do not want shared with family devices?
    For example, I use my iPhone for research in stores...I see a gift idea, I take a quick picture. Now I have the price, the name of the item, where I found it, and all that great info. I do this ALL THE TIME. However, I certanly wouldn't want my gift research to get synced with my home mac, where someone might see it and ruin a surprise.
    I have not yet enabled Photostream because there doesn't seem to be any way I have read about to Stop a photo from being shared, other than to simply never use the service.
    IS there a workaround?

    What you probably need to remember is that the iCloud account is intended to be a personal account not one that is shared between all devices belonging to the same family.
    If you have no use for photo stream at all, then I suggest you do as you do now, and keep it turned off all of the time. If however you have occasional uses for it, photos taken on your device will only sync with photo stream when photo stream is turned on, so you'll have the ability to take photos without them being synced to all your devices, if you wish to do so.

  • How can I stop my phone from going into the lock screen while talking on it? (New issue with ios 6)

    Prior to ios 6, I could talk on my phone and have the mute button available. Now it goes into lock mode while speaking on the phone. This is terribly annoying when on conference calls and you want to mute/unmute, or just hang up a call. I now have to swipe to unlock, go to phone, and hang up or unmute. I've tried upping my timeout, but that just delays the inevitable.

    Yep, it's a pain.  What's even more concerning is that at the Genius Bar, he was trying to tell me that this is the was it was supposed to be, so they probably fixed it in OS 6.  He said it is for people that are using "Bluetooth" and want to keep the phone in their pockets".  Ridiculous!  What compounds the issue is that the Apple Reps have no clue as to what's going on, and either do the senior tech's on the phone.  As I said in my message, this has made it very cumbersome, and makes it very difficult for those who need to use wired headsets.

  • How can I stop my ipod from going to my picture library when connected to my computer?

    A week or so ago I clicked the option that was saying "Transfer photos from ipod to computer" under the "What should this device do" option thing when you first connect your ipod to your computer. I have windows 8.1. Anyway, I thought the photo thing was a one time deal and it wouldn't ask me "what to do" again. Usually i ignore it but I did,in fact, have photos to put on my computer that day.
    Now every time I plug my ipod into my computer it takes me to my picture library to start "reading" my ipod photos and if you have windows 8 or greater, that is very annoying because it's its own separate "application". Is there a way to reset this setting without resetting my ipod so it doesn't take me to my picture library each time? I can deal with the pop-up when you first connect I just don't wanna have to keep exiting my picture library each time I connect my ipod.

    It's simply called Photos and there is no options/setting thing on it. I have windows 8, it's a stand alone photo library viewer.

  • How do i stop my programs from automatically popping up when i turn on the computer?

    how do i stop my programs from automatically popping up when i turn on the computer?

    When you log out or shut down, there will be a checkbox that asks you if you want to reopen windows when you log in. Just uncheck this box. If that isn't it, you may have login items turned on. Go to System Preferences>Users and Groups and then under your name click the Login Itens tab. Make sure nothing is there.
    If you want to stop windows from restoring when you open applications (so for example when you open Safari it doesn't open the 50 tab page you just had open when you quit) go to SystemPreferences>General and then hit the checkbox that says Close windows when quitting an application.
