How do I use the "double-layer" function with my iMac?

Hi,
Just wondering who can help me. I want to burn a dvd using the double-layer feature. The thing is I don't know if my iMac comes with that application preinstalled. I don't even know if I need an application and which one. The only thing I have for the moment is the "LightScribe DVD+R".
Thank you

"Double-layer" is a property of the media (the disk itself). There are no options in software necessary to support writing to it, it just uses the second layer if the data won't fit on a single-layer and the disk in the drive has a second-layer.
As far as software is concerned, there's no notion of "layers" on the disk. The software simply sees the disk as 4.5G (a regular DVD+R) or 9G (DVD+R DL). Handling of writing multiple layers is handled by the drive itself.
You'll note that you can't treat single-layer discs as double-layered ones. The drive can tell what sort of disk was inserted.

How do I use the double sided printing with my HP Officejet 6500A plus

I need help with learning to use the double sided printing with my HP Officejet 6500A Plus

Click on the Show Details button just above:
You can configure various options from the dropdown menu just below Orientation.
Printing two-sided requires a two-sided adaptor for the printer. Otherwise, you have to print out odd numbered pages first, turn them over and reinsert into the paper feeder, then print even numbered pages. If you do it right you get a nice two-sided document. If you do it wrong all the even numbered pages will be upside down.

How do I use the Match Pattern Function to exclude only 0.000?

Hi,
I'm trying to use the mattch pattern function to find the first string in a table thats is >0. My table looks like:
1,0.000000,0.000 %2007/01/13 00:16:19 196281
1,0.000000,0.000 %2007/01/13 00:16:22 196282
1,0.831262,0.000 %2007/01/13 00:17:20 196375
2,0.811154,0.000 %2007/01/13 00:17:20 196375
If I us the paremeter "1,[~0]" It doesn't find the line 1,0.831262,0.000... which is the one that I want. I also tried :1,[0-9].+[~0] and that didn't work either. the problem is that the first digit after to 1, isn't allways going to go from 0 to 0.0 sometimes it might go from 0 to 2.??.
Thanks for the help

Hi,
1,[~0] matches a "1" a "," and then any character that is not "0".
1,[0-9].+[~0] matches a "1" a "," and then any character that is "0-9", any number of anything!! (1 or more) and then anything that is not "0". Note that you have to escape a . to match a ".". Like this "\.".
There is no way to check if there is anything other then a "0" in the match, from within the match pattern function. So I think you won't be able to find a pattern that does the trick.
Why not use a whileloop to find the first item? Or use the Spreadsheet String To Array, and then compare the desired row or column with the string "0.000000"? (Or replace all ,0.000000, by a string like ",NULL,", then match the pattern?)
In LabVIEW 8 there is a new Match Regular Expression function. Haven't tried it, but it should be much more powerfull then the Match Pattern function. But also much more complex.

How can I use the MacBook Pro webcam with Windows XP apps under Parallel?

Thank you in advance for your help with this matter.
I have a MacBook Pro and I have just installed Parallel with Windows XP. I would like to use the webcam that comes with the laptop for applications that run under Windows XP (ex.: PalTalk).
The application doesn't seen to recognize the camera. Do I have to load the drivers for this camera in XP? If so where can I find them and what is the process?
Thank you again,
Enrico

You probably need to load the Boot Camp drivers that are on the Leopard DVD. Whether it works or not I can't say, but you may want to post your question on the Parallels forums, since it's not an Apple product, and if anyone has gotten it to work you'll find them over there.

How do I use the new search function for ipod?

itunes 7.0 and ipod is up to date:
when i scroll through the music, i get the nifty little grey box with the letter in it, but how do i get to the search where i use the click wheel to input a query and search through all items in my ipod?

Unless your iPod is one of the recently announced upgraded 30GB or 80GB iPods, you don't have the search function. It was not added to existing devices in the recent update. It may or may not be added in some future software update but there's no official word on that.

How can I use the procedures and functions in my library

hello, all
I have a pl/sql library MYLIB.pld, MYLIB.pll and MYLIB.plx.
How can I invoke procedures and functions there in JDeveloper?
Thanks.
Damon

I am indeed using ADF BC to re-develop the oracle application.
Here is my situation:
We have an oracle form application.
Our objective is to try to re-use the existing sources in the form application as much as possible:
1. tons of procedures and functions in a pl/sql library(a file with extension name portfolioLib.pll or portfolioLib.plx);
2. tons of form-level triggers, data-block triggers and item-triggers;
3. tons of database stored procedures and triggers;
After doing a research on JDeveloper, we decide to use ADF Swing+ADF BC to re-develop the application.
My opinion for the above three kinds of sources in our form application is:
for 1: we try to move most of procedures and functions into database(except Form build-in);
for 2: we try to wrap those triggers in a SQLJ class;
for 3: we try to call database procedures and functions with PreparedStatment or CallableStatement;
I just do a test on a post-query trigger on a data-block:
I created a sqlj file, named testSQLJ.sqlj in the test.view package;
I tried to call it in createInstanceFromResultSet of testDeptVOImpl.java which is test.model package,
I was told that testSQLJ cannot be found there. why?
How can I call some classes from test.view package in some classes of test.model?
I read some documents about how to deal with post-query trigger in JDeveloper: create a view with SQL statement, but it seems that it does not support pl/sql statement there.
Can you give me some opinion about the above stuff?
I really appreciate your help.

How do i realise the most basic functionality with my zen tou

I've been playing around with my zen touch for a couple of hours now and I have to admit I'm impressed. The zen has certainly opened my eyes and challenged my previous foolish preconceptions about portable mp3 players which should be open platform, plug-and-play, straightforward and easy to use, because my experience thus far has not been any of these.
In an attempt to stop wasting any more my time I was just wondering if someone could quickly tell me how exactly do I manage the files which are already on my touch? A couple of things I would like to do:
. view and music files on my zen touch from some interface on my computer
2. copy music files from my zen touch back on to my computer
3. delete all music files without manually having to go through each and every album
Now I've probably made another crass assumption that it is infact possible to actually do this, but here's to hoping.
Now, the manual says I can use the creative mediasource organizer to transfer music to my touch. And indeed, Creative MediaSource Player/Organizer 3.30.2 claims to be able to do just this (transfer music tracks to and from your Creative portable music player using Sync Manager and SmartFit*). My question is... how? I've run the organizer, it looks like yet another music library management tool, great except for the whole part about that mp3 player stuff. Is there a hidden setting somewhere only available to stonemasons that will let me access my mp3 player?
I've also installed the Creative NOMAD Explorer (Version 3.0.0). Now, at least this works - in the same way a person in a coma can be said to li've. When I open the 'music library' I get an empty explorer window to I can click and drag mp3 files into it and it copies them over. So, I guess I have some functionality, although it would be kind of nice to have some feedback about what files I have on there.
Now as it's not april fools I'm not quite ready to accept that zen touch as the great big joke it appears to be, so if somebody could provide some insight I would really be grateful.
edit: forgot to mention, running .0.03 firmware, and the model number on the back is DAP-HD004. Upgrading to the 2. firmware is unfortunatley not an option at the moment.Message Edited by adante on 02-24-20060:7 PM

Mosey: thank you for the information. Just out of curiousity, was I just not paying attention and was this made known somewhere? Or do creative just expect you to potter around endlessly installing software in the hopes that you might randomly stumble across the right configuration?
Perhaps I am just crazy for assuming that if the latest firmware does not have a superseded message, it is still acti've and valid.
Anyway, I'm happy to report that the situation has been resolved mostly to my satisfaction. I was able to fob off my zen touch to some other sod, and actually make a profit from it, no less! This was quite a pleasant surprise because I usually dispose of fecal matter by flushing it down the toilet (but then, I don't have to pay for it either).
I have since purchased a noname mp3 player which, while having some pretty severe firmware, provides some great additional functionality which I have to admit I really like over the touch. Primarily, this was being able to copy mp3s to and from it* and hence use it as an mp3 player! I know this concept is a little radical, but I really think creative should look into it because it would really add some value to their current line of paperweights and doorsto
ps.
So thanks creative for that hilarious little experience. I have to admit, you guys certainly do manage to distinguish yourself from the field and push the limits of mp3 player technology. Where I used to think of a nai'vely spectrum of good to bad, I have since extended this from the good, to the bad, to the creative.
* This alone is a great feature I was never able to realise with my touch, and made even better by the fact I didn't have to install all sorts of half-baked software to achieve it!

How can I use the latest Berkeley DB with SQL API in PHP app?

Hi,
I'm a PHP developer and I already use Berkeley DB in my applications using the [DBA Functions|http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.dba.php] . I'm very interested in the latest Berkeley DB release. How can I write a PHP program that uses the SQL API of the latest Berkeley DB release?

Hi Kurt,
I'm not a PHP expert (far from it), but the simplest way to get started with the Berkeley DB SQL interface is to run Berkeley DB's <tt>configure</tt> script with the <tt>--enable-sql_compat</tt> flag. This will create a library called <tt>libsqlite3.so</tt> that you can use as a drop-in replacement for SQLite at the API level. Database files still need to be converted with a SQLite <tt>.dump</tt> followed by a <tt>.read</tt> with the <tt>dbsql</tt> tool.
This should then allow the existing PHP driver and application code to switch over to Berkeley DB without any code changes by setting <tt>LD_LIBRARY_PATH</tt> to find the Berkeley DB version of <tt>libsqlite3.so</tt> ahead of SQLite. Note that any other code that relies on SQLite will also run against Berkeley DB with this configuration, which can cause problems if the system libraries use SQLite (for example, on Mac OS X). For that reason, a better long term solution would be for the PHP SQLite driver to have a mode where it loads <tt>libdbsql.so</tt> rather than <tt>sqlite3.so</tt>.
I hope this helps, please let us know how you go because I'm sure lots of other PHP developers will be interested in the answer.
Regards,
Michael Cahill, Oracle Berkeley DB.

How can I use the NI PXI-6508 with Lab View 7? what are the first steps to get started??How can I use the channels with lab view 7????

I have a 8 slot PXI system with 2 NI PXI 6508 and 1 DMM 4070 in it. I want to get started with programming the digital I/O cards (6508)! How can I use this cards with LabView 7?what is the best way to get started, or where can I get examples showing how to use the several channels?
Thanks!
Philipp

Philipp,
The best way to get started is to decide if you want to use traditional NI-DAQ or NI-DAQmx. Recently we released NI-DAQ 7.1 which provides NI-DAQmx support for the PXI-6508. In my opinion, NI-DAQmx is more efficient and much easier to use.
To get started with examples, simply launch LabVIEW and go to Help>>Find Examples. Then expand Hardware Input and Output>>DAQmx and select the appropriate digital group for your application. This should help get you started.
Please repost if you need addition assistance. Good luck with your application!

How can I use the remote that comes with MacBook?

I have a MacBook remote (old macbook, not the pro). I no longer have the macbook computer, but I hope I can still use the remote. I do not know how. Please help me.

Only if it has IR support. Otherwise, it cannot. You would need to connect an IR receiver to the USB port.

How do you use the same wireless keyboard with multiple devices?

My apologies in advance if this question has been answered previously. There was nothing in the owner's manual (for the keyboard) that answered this. I did do a rough search that did not yield an answer to this:
I have one wireless keyboard I am using with my Macbook Pro. I understand this keyboard can also be used as an input device for my Apple TV and my iPhone - both of which I currently own.
And although I am able to use the keyboard with those devices, I am forced to "forget this device" after having used it on either the Apple TV or my iPhone so that I can use it on my MacBook Pro. Is there any combination of keys that one can press on the keyboard that would cycle through my three devices? As it is right now, if I don't "forget the device" on my secondary units, it somehow defaults to a peripheral OTHER than my MacBook Pro and I'd like for it to always default to my computer.
Thank you for any information/advice.

How do I use the built-in microphone on my iMac while using Windows XP?

My iMac has a built-in microphone. My computer is set up with a partition to run either mac or windows. I would like to use the built-in microphone feature when I am using Windows XP. Is there any way that I can do this?

Hi and welcome to Discussions,
assuming you have installed the neccessary BootCamp Drivers from the OSX Leopard DVD the internal mic is useable with any kind of recording software.
Windows itself has a rather rudimentary Audiorecorder program built-in.
For a more sophisticated recording program have a look at Audacity http://audacity.sourceforge.net/

How do I use the same bluetooth device with different iOS devices without having to "Forget" then "Pair" every time?

Hi,
I have bought a pair of Sennheiser MM100 wireless headphones and they are great, however, I'm having trouble switching between devices.
I have an iPad2 and an iPhone 4s and the headphones connect to both with no problems. My issue comes when I want to switch from using the headphones with my iPhone (listening to music on the walk to the train station) to using them with my iPad (to watch a movie on the train). The iPad still shows that it is paired with the headphones but will not connect saying that they must be turned off or out of range. Even if I turn the headphones off then on again, they immediately reconnect with the iphone.
I've tried deselecting the headphones as the source for audio from the airplay icon before I make the switch and have also done this before turning them off and then back on again.
The only way I can make the switch is to turn the headphones off, tell the iPad to forget the device, turn the headphones on (by holding the on button for 5 seconds it automatically goes to Pair mode). I pair up the iPad and it connects fine. But I have to go through the same process when the train pulls into my stop to be able to use the headphones to listen to music to walk to work!
Is there an easier way? I thought I would just be able to use the airplay icon to deselect it on one device and select it for the other.
Any help would be much appreciated. I'm going to miss my stop on the train some day!!!

Here's the trick.
turn on the headphones.
It will connect to the device it last connected to ...assuming that its' on.
go to the bluetooth menu of your phone or ipad (if it's a computer you want to connect to I'll tell you that trick in a second.
and so now, hold down the S button on the headphones for about 4 or 5 seconds (the same button you use to turn on the headphones) ...the light goes from blue to blinking red....now you're in the pairing mode...which is good...now in the bluetooth menu simply select the mm100 and it will connect...
you won't have to type in the 0000 or tell it to forget the device..
but by holding down the button and putting it in pairing mode it frees it from being connected to the device it automatically connected to and lets it connect to the device you choose. this is true of any bluetooth headset.
if you want to connect to your computer, again...hold down that button on the headphones for 4 or 5 seconds till it enters pairing mode, then on your computer if you have a speaker icon in the menu bar, hold down the option key while selecting the speaker icon...you'll see a list of devices ...select the mm100 and your good to go.
if you don't have the speaker icon there..go to system prefences and choose the mm100's there.

How can I use the accordion panel widget with a footer?

Hi,
My question is may be not clear. So I'm gonna be more specific. I'm using a menu for my website with the accordion panel widget. The menu is working fine and when I'm opening it, it pushs the items below on the pages.
My problem is with the footer of the page. Because, when the items below the widgets are pushed, they go below the footer and the footer is not pushed.
Is there any way to pushe the footer when I use the accordion widget? I don t want to overlap it.

I assume this is what you want to achieve in the footer....
Make sure in Muse before you export that the panel is closed, and also as Brad suggested, make sure Overlap Items Below is unchecked. I would also check the "Can Close All" button.
