How can I tell if a sound is playing in Flex application?

Hi All,
Simple question but I can't seem to find an answer to. How can I tell if my Flex application is currently playing sounds from a SWF file?
What I'm trying to do is load a SWF file dynamically into my Flex app. However, these SWF files have sounds in them and they don't seem to stop even after I unload the SWF files.
I'm trying to get around this by stopping all sounds using the flash.media.SoundMixer.stopAll() but it's getting called too early, before the SWF files are fully loaded and rendered in the application.
I searched around and it seems like many people are having issues with this. Maybe someone can help me find a solution.
Thanks,
Colin

In player 10 you can use unloadAndStop()

Hey davma1
All you need to delete the songs then go through the process of downloading the past purchase again.

How can I tell if replacement LCD is "good"?

Hi everyone
I bought a used 20" Intel iMac that supposedly only needed a hard drive and a new LCD panel in order to work. The hard drive was easily installed. I ordered a replacement panel off eBay and installed it, but I'm seeing a grey screen with lots of tiny black rectangles on it. I figured that maybe there's a problem with the video card, so I scrounged up a Mini-DVI to DVI adapter, and connected an external monitor. However, nothing ever displays on that external monitor. If there is truly a problem with the video card (the logic board?), I'm going to stop buying parts and sell the carcass....
Anyway, how can I tell if the replacement LCD is good? Does the weird pattern I'm seeing on the display indicate a problem with the panel or with the video card? And shouldnt the iMac automatically output to the external display when I connect it via the adapter?
Thanks!

Hello, does it sound like it's booting up at all?
If we could get it to boot, we could take a screen grab & that would tell us, if the screen capture was indentical to wahat you're seeing then it'd be the graphic card, since it captures it from the card/VRAM, not the screen actually.
As far as the adapter I think you have to have it at least booted up part way for a second monitor to even light up, not positive though.

How can I tell if my computer orweb surfing is being monitored?

How can I tell if my computer orweb surfing is being monitored? just got Apple Remote Desktop 3 at the office and want to know if Big Brother is watching me....how can I know?

If you set up your mac yourself and it was never touched by an admin, then you have nothing to worry about. If your IT dept set up the mac and gave it to you, then they could have a hidden admin account and turn on ARD without your knowing. well, you'd have to go into the Sharing preference pane to see if it's turned on. the icon is turned off and on from the ARD preferences within the Sharing pane.
it sounds like your account is an admin account so you have the ability to change the ARD client preferences. if your IT dept wants this on, you should leave it on so they don't take away your admin privs.

How can I tell what control the modulation wheel is assigned to?

Hello,
I understand how to reassign the Mod Wheel and other controls with Command-L. However, once I deleted my learned assignments I realized that the modulation wheel had not been working as it should with the thousands of other presets. Apparently, when I assigned it to the EVP88's Tremolo, it became deactivated from controlling all sorts of fun stuff on the synths.
My questions is in a two parts:
1. If I open up some presets in the ES E (for example), I hear the mod wheel tweaking the sound, but I don't see the control it's manipulating when I'm looking at the instrument window on the screen. How can I find out what control the mod wheel is linked to in each instrument?
2. If I want to reassign the mod wheel on a particular instrument preset, how can I tell logic that this assignment should only be aplicable in a particular preset, and to forget that reassignment when swiching instruments or presets?
Thanks in advance,
I'm proudly 10.6.8 and staying there

I don't recall there being a way that I've seen to find out if the Hotspot is connected to Band 4 or Band 13. The diagnostic pages are very basic.
A good rule of thumb with Band 4 is to consider the following. If you have 3 bars or less, you're likely not on Band 4. The device will head to Band 13 as it will usually provide better signal reliability. If you're indoors, you're more likely to be on Band 13.
Also take note that Wi-Fi is a common limiter on the speeds you'll get. You'll usually see nothing more than 30Mbps on most Wireless N devices. Connect to the Hotspot using USB Tethered mode and speeds should be a bit better.

How can I tell if fan between front and rear bay is working?

hi all
How can I tell if fan between front and rear bays is working? I put my hand behind G4 MDD to feel for air flow and it seems minimal. I hear a wind tunnel sound but I feel more heat than air flow. Please help as I don't want my Mac to overheat
Thanks, Web dude

You can run your mac with the side "door" open - down flat to the right of the computer. You should be able to see the fan do (or not do) its thing.
I have done this (run the mac with the side open) many times. For safety, I turn the mac off before opening / closing the door.

How can I tell which catalog a missing image belongs to?

How can I tell which catalog a missing image belongs to?
Beating a dead horse.....Everytime I need "missing images" in LR4.2, I cannot access them, even though I am looking right at the location they presntly occupy because thye image is ALREADY IN ANOTHER CATALOG.
HOW frustrating is this...going on 8 months now. But I need the images and I suppose I could just go back and reprocess 10,000 images that are missing in my collections but I have tried many solutions offered over the months that are just impractical.
So Now I want to approach this thing from the other direction...
If let's say one image is already associated with another catalog that houses that collection, ( and the collection is important because it has the edits), i want to go to that catalog instead.
How do I do this?
Any Ideas?

It sounds as if you have been using separate catalogs for sets of images which are in separate folders. Perhaps you have had good reason to do that. But I would now make three linked observations:
It seems that you are now more able to both find, and distinguish, things via a folder structure - rather than via whatever classification of different catalogs you may have thought were going to be helpful to you
accordingly, having these mutiple catalogs is now getting in your way
using folders works just the same inside one big catalog, as it does inside each of two smaller catalogs.
The solution to the first two, IMO, is to merge your separate catalogs into one catalog. Then the third will kick in. You can still keep the current separate catalogs for archive or reference purposes, but the "Import from Another Catalog" function will MERGE copies of all their contents into a combined, larger catalog that you can use going forward. (The images and folders themselves, do not change in any way when you do this.)
If you wish to track which catalog each image is currently inside, you could apply some kind of keyword across all images in that catalog, before carrying out the merge. However, it sounds to me as if your folder arrangement currently mirrors the different catalogs in some way anyway - and will continue to convey the same information once combined.
Lightroom is designed to be able to work with large numbers of images more or less the same as with small numbers; and this has been anecdotally confirmed in many cases. AFAICT the main performance issue is not the size of the database, but the size and nature of the image data involved and the complexity of things you do with that, per image, also the ability of your computer system to carry these operations out, per image. (Another overall productivity issue is: do you need to keep navigating to and opening different catalogs; or... not!)
Even if you merge catalogs and then change your mind about all or some of that, you can either: retain and go back to the previous un-merged catalogs - or: to preserve further work done since merging, you can use Export as Catalog to copy out a certain highlighted set of images. Then you can Remove what you wish from the main catalog - using the exact same means of identifying which images require this - for example, the image set you have only just exported to a new catalog will still be highlighted inside the source catalog.

How can I tell when my monitor calibration is "right"?

I have had good success with the built-in Mac calibration routine in the past with my Viewsonic CRT. It seems to work OK with my 20" Cinema Display, and another flat screen, but I have trouble with the first step of the calibration settings - there isn't any position on the left slider that looks right. I recently got a Spyder 3 Pro monitor calibrator and the results are SO different from my Mac calibration I don't know what to do next. I had good results before.
How can I tell if the Spyder profile, or the Mac profile is "right"?
Does the Spyder work properly with the Cinema Display?
With the Spyder I am using 2.2 and 6500 as starting points. I have important projects going to press so I need to know that I am sending out good files.
What is the final standard of "rightness" when it comes to monitor calibration?

There is not one standard because it depends on your output. For you, it sounds like the standard is that your screen gives you a rendering as close as possible to the press proofing standard that your company and your clients sign off on. In other words, a neutral gray and certain colors look the same on screen and on the print on your proof under your standard lighting. Your starting points sound OK, but for example, they would be wrong if your lightboxes are D50.
It's highly unlikely that the built-in profile is better than the Spyder. A hardware sensor is far more objective and accurate than the human eye.
I'm mostly repeating stuff I read in Real World Color Management so if your paycheck really does depend on this stuff you might read it or any other color management book. ColorWiki and the Chromix newsletter are other good resources for this.

You would have to create the ringtones.
Google will find several way to do this.
You cannot buy ready made ringtones from your computer.

My ipad does not have the amount of GB on the back and in the settings it says 56gb! Also there is no setting called regulatory. It is an ipad 4 retina w wifi that i got as a Christmas present. Could it be a fake? How can i tell?

The amount of storage that is shown on the box and in Settings are calculated differently - the package uses 1 billion bytes as a gig (i.e. decimal), whereas in Settings it's shown as the binary definition : http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2419
Also some space has been used for iOS, the built-in app and some space is lost due to formatting.

How can I tell what is "Auto Launching"

User's (me) tech background:
Fairly technical user here, but getting pretty rusty. In a past life (late '90s) I was a network administrator as well as server admins for NT 4, Novell (up to 4.11), AIX, and HP-UX servers. Used to be really good at a command prompt ($ or #) in AIX and HP-UX as well as MS DOS. I do have ROOT enabled on my Macs and I am not afraid to use it. However, I know how severe the consequences can be (trashed a customer's AIX server once using a -R switch in the root directory), so I am extremely cautious and must be confident of the instruction. Can probably fix most anything with some guidance........
Here is the problem........ I have recently developed an error on boot, say within the last couple of weeks, where it tells me that some Vista application won't run because VM Ware will not initialize. The problem is VM Ware is not loaded on this computer (15" MBP model 8.2, i7 processor, 16MB of RAM, OS 10.7.4........ bought as a "refurb", never had a problem, have used this workstation for several months now). Boot Camp is not configured on this machine either. Nothing is in the Dock that would knowingly trigger this. When I go into System Information, I find nothing set as a "Startup Item" (screen shot attached) , making me think that I am looking in the wrong place. Where should I be looking?
Interesting enough, when I go to System Information, and look under "Applications", I do see a lot of Vista items, including apps from an older MBP that I do not connect to (on same network, they have "rights" to connect, I just never do as there is nothing on there I need). I have attached a screen shot of this as well.
Please, someone, can you give me some advice here?
How can I tell where this auto loading of this Vista app is coming from
How do I get rid of it
Why did it happen "suddenly"?
Can I go into System Info/Applications and delete any Vista or VM Ware apps?
If I cannot do this via "System Info" can I remove (rm OR mv) the files from whichever system directory stores this data?
This is puzzling and quite concerning. I would be deeply grateful if there is a "Yoda" out there that knows how to fix this.......
Thanks in advance,
Bill

Managing your data usage is very important Bag02231958. I would like to thank ttipgem for the great suggestion to see what is using data on your phone. However, when you access the internet, social media apps, stream data, videos, music, etc. that uses data on your phone. Unfortunately, we do not have a list of what specifically is being accessed on the device to incur data.

"Volume not found" I have 3 iphoto_libraries stored in a external disk, while the actual files are in other external disk. Ive moved together iphotolibraries and files but: HOW CAN I TELL THE LIBRARIES WHERE TO FIND THEM NOW?

I have three iphoto_libraries stored in a external disk PASSPORT (one for each trip imovie Im making -Ive managed this way the libraries so to not confuse the trips) while the actual files are in OTHER external disk LACIE. And everything was fine: imovie find each library, could work with it, or iphoto could edit the files.
But one day everything crashed at the same time: i opened iphoto to find 3 different scenarios:
1) iphoto_library GREECE was there, but not the albums i prepared. no events. when double click in any of them: "Volume not found"
2) iphoto_library ITALY was there, and the albums i prepared too, but empty.
in both cases I can only see the photos in 'photos' because 'events' shows some events with photo preview and some with no preview, just some kind of preset clipart palm tree, but if i enter the event, photos are there but again: when double click in any item: "Volume not found"
3) iphoto_library ISRAEL was there, the albums too, when double click in any of them: all OK
The 3 libraries was managed the same way. Meaning: Ive imported photos to iphoto from external disk LACIE in a iphotolibrary stored in another external disk PASSPORT. Also: I don't have unchecked the option "copy to file" or something like that. photos where moved, not copied. Also i have all the movie_libraries in the PASSPORT as well. What happened??
Solution? Nothing yet. Ive moved now all the photo folders from LACIE together in PASSPORT with the iphotolibraries but problem persist:
HOW CAN I TELL THE LIBRARIES WHERE TO LOOK FOR THE VOLUMES NOW?
"Volumes" are the original files aren't them?
Please help. this is so annoying to try and find in the forum, to tricky to explain
I have a Macbook pro retina Yosemite 10.10.1 / iphoto 9.6 (910-29)/ iMovie 10.0.6
THANK YOU
Vicky

This is not clear, especially when you say
I don't have unchecked the option "copy to file" or something like that. photos where moved, not copied.
Especially as the message you're getting is typical of a library where the ' option "copy to file" or something like that' is unchecked.
So it's a simple question:
Are you these Managed or Referenced Libraries?
A Managed Library, is the default setting, and iPhoto copies files into the iPhoto Library when Importing. The files are then stored in the Library package
A Referenced Library is when iPhoto is NOT copying the files into the iPhoto Library when importing because you made a change at iPhoto -> Preferences -> Advanced. (You unchecked the option to copy files into the Library on import) The files are then stored where ever you put them and not in the Library package. In this scenario you are responsible for the File Management.
