I accidentally quit my CC on my Macbook pro and now the cloud icon is grayed out and every time I hover over it with the mouse I get the spinning beach ball of death on the icon. I have no idea how to open it because when I use spotlight search to open it it gives me a message saying "Creative Cloud is not open anymore" help!

Since you didn't include any pertinent info such as the Mac model and OS version you are running, here is some general information:
Mac OS X: Gray screen appears during startup
Depending on which OS yours came with originally - and which OS you are now running - you would either need your original install disks - you can call Apple for replacements by giving them your serial number. Or you may be able to reinstall the OS by using recovery (again, depends on which model/which OS).

If after clearing history, I am still getting filled in suggestions in Firefox 3.6 user names using Mac OS 10.6, how can I eliminate the suggestions for users and searches?

I made an error when I was filling in a user name. Firefox is continuing to offer this as a suggestion in a drop down menu after using Clear Recent History. I used Clear Recent History, tried restarting Firefox after clearing history, and reinstalled Firefox. I did a search on Google, Firefox and Apple to see if someone else has reported this problem. All gave the same information that I have already tried.
Firefox 3.6.11
Mac OSX 10.6

In my case it seems that Firefox just doesn't "see" (or can't find?) the coupon printer application anymore after the FF update. (and yes, my add-ons are enabled - to answer the tech support people's first question).
For me, the coupon printer doesn't even show up in my Firefox "Add-Ons" list anymore. Is that what people typically see when they're saying the coupon printer "doesn't work" with FF? The coupon printer was visible on the add-ons list before my FF update, and now it's totally Gone! It seems that Firefox just doesn't "see" (or can't find?) the coupon printer application anymore since the FF update.
When I'm on the coupons.com site and I click "print coupons", it tells me I haven't installed the application. But it Is installed on my computer, I can see it in my folders, and it works on IE, so it's definitely there.
BTW - I have uninstalled/reinstalled the coupon printer application. I have tried all the suggestions on the Mozilla help/forum sites, as well as the Coupons.com web site. I have closed and re-started Firefox after the installation. I have also shut down and restarted my pc after installation. I tried installing the application with Firefox open, and tried it again with Firefox closed. I've even cleared out all my cookies/history associated with Coupons.com.
... I can't think of anything else to try, except for the "solution" of using IE for coupons.
If it Really is a problem on the Coupon.com end of things, do you think it's worth it if we bombard the coupons.com support team with messages saying they need to fix the problem? (or just a waste of time?) ;(

How do I eliminate delays in transmitting buffered CAN data?

My application using the PCI-CAN Series 2 card is programming automotive modules in a time-critical environment using a MSVC++ application running on Win2000. We need to send about 1.4 Mb of data to the module as quickly as possible, preferably less than 70 seconds. We are communicating with the modules at 500 Kbaud using standard frames (not extended).
Looking at the CAN bus on a scope, we see that the frames themsevles are about 240 microseconds wide, but after each frame of data, there is roughly 300 microseconds of delay.
In my C++ implementation, I have created a transmit object with a transmit queue size of 225 frames. The transmit object is configured to transmit "by call" and the period att
ribute has been set to 0. Using this configuration, I would assume that data would be sent as fast as possible. I am certain that the transmit queue is being filled faster than it can send the data out. What is producing the delays between frames, and how do I eliminate them?
(Attached file contains transmit object configuration and frame writing routine.)

Hey Glenn,
If all you want to do is transmit as fast as possible, I would recommend using the network interface object rather than a CAN object. This will reduce the overhead and should improve your performance. Use a large transmit queue length on the network interface object, and try to keep the queue full. This should maximize the output of the CAN card. Other things to be aware of: what is your total bus utilization? If other devices are transmitting on the bus and the CAN card is losing arbitration, you could see a big performance hit. Also, make sure you are using the latest NI-CAN driver (2.2). There have been performance increases over older drivers (1.6 and previous specifically).

How can I eliminate delays in one NIC when there is traffic on second NIC

Using LabVIEW TCP/IP VIs, my LV application is accessing a database though a LAN, and through a second NIC, it is controlling an instrument. The instrument is connected directly to the computer NIC with a cross-over cable. I have made a permanent route for the IP address of the instrument in the IP route table. The LAN and the instrument have different subnet numbers. Using a packet sniffer, I don't see any traffic meant for the LAN going to the NIC connected to the instrument. The OS of the computer is Windows XP and the NICs are PCI cards.
The message traffic to the instrument suffers from intermittent delays when there is traffic going to the LAN.
How can I eliminate the delays? What could be the cause of the delays? Thanks in advance for your recommendations and suggestions.

Hi LabBard,
Could you tell us a little more about the device that you are connected to? What you could try is to have a VI accessing the LAN, and a separate VI communicating with the instrument, and see how things play out.
Let us know how it goes!

Maybe, but if there are trailing blanks
SELECT REGEXP_REPLACE('Jahd Khalil , 2011 , Son , , , , , , LEG 09/20/2009 10:55:46',' ,', '') FROM DUAL;
you need to take care of that first:
Jahd Khalil 2011 Son LEG 09/20/2009 10:55:46 <-- no commas at all!
1 row selected.
I guess there are many ways, and the old REPLACE is more than capable.

In Finder, select the item. Choose File > Get Info (or do ⌘I). Look under General > Kind. Does it read "Alias" or does it read "Application (Intel)"?
If the latter, then it is likely that you're not allowed to delete because it's actually open. Quit Safari. Check if there is an item called Safari in your </Applications> folder. (In Finder, you can get directly to the Applications folder using ⇧⌘A -- that's Shift-Command-A.) Check if it's an application. If it is, then you have an unneeded copy of Safari. You can delete the one on your Desktop. If there isn't, them move the one on the Desktop to the Applications folder -- that's where it belongs.

How can I restrict certain apps to cellular data only?

Product Name: iPhone 6
Product iOS: 8.3
Background: I listen to Pandora at work through my iPhone 6. My work has pandora traffic blocked through their WiFi network. I want to keep my iPhone connected to the work WiFi because 1) I don't want to turn on and off my WiFi on my phone 2) I want to my email and other apps to use WiFi since they are not blocked.
Current Workarounds (not a solutions):
1) Turn off and on WiFi on iPhone 6- This is a pain/hassle and I forget to turn the WiFi back on.
2) Switching to a different streaming music providers that aren't blocked by work WiFi- I pay for Pandora One and I like this service the best. I really don't want to switch.
3) Download music to iPhone memory- I pay for Pandora One and I'd like to use it.
4) Jailbreak- Not sure if this a solution but I'd rather not jailbreak my device.
Question: How can I restrict certain apps (Pandora) to use cellular data only?

Chasen

The network settings in iOS are global and do not support assigning specific networks to specific apps. You cannot do what you describe.

How do I eliminate the space above a spry menu bar?

I made a table, set the CellPad and CellSpace to 0, and set
the width to 800 pixels. Then, I inserted an image (with a width of
800 pixels) into the table, and set the V and H of the image to 0,
and aligned the image to the top. Then, I copied a spry menu bar
(with a width of 800 pixels) above the table and pasted it in the
table underneath the image. There is a vertical space of 16 pixels
between the image and the spry menu bar. How do I eliminate this
vertical gap?

The Spry Updater is at:
http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/spry/home.html
If there is a spacing issue it is hard to tell without the
code. By default the Spry menu bar has 0 for margin and padding.
Make sure there is not a <p> tag within the table because the
<p> tag has an inherit padding/margin to it and could be
causing issues. The image and Spry should just be within the
<td> </td> without any <p> tags inside.
