  • How do you get the maps app to speak turn by turn directions through a car audio system?

    When using maps app in route in my car, I get a bluetooth icon at the bottom right of the screen.  When I tap on it, there is a choice to either play sound either through the iPhone or through an audio device.  If I select audio device it still plays through the iPhone, not the audio device.
    The device is connected.  My phone calls, music, and siri all work fine with it.

    Hello JaeRoc48,
    I understand that the sound is not working.
    Go to start.
    Type Sound.
    Select sound.
    Select speakers as default.
    Click OK.
    Let me know how everything goes.

  • How do you get Oracle 8i to work with j2sdkee 1.3 B

    I had the j2sdkee1.2.1 working with Oracle 8i and I had the following line in the ~conifg/default.properties files
    Here's what worked:
    jdbcDatasources=jdbc/EstoreDB|jdbc:oracle:thin:@localhost:1521:ORCL|jdbc/InventoryDB|jdbc:oracle:thin:@localhost:1521:ORCL|jdbc/jcampDB|jdbc:oracle:thin:@localhost:1521:ORCL
    In the j2sdkee1.3 beta 2, the resource configuration file format seem to have changed and I am not sure how to get oracle to work. I have tried modifying the new format but it does not seem to work. Can anyone tell me where set drivers for Oracle 8i or any place I can look to figure how to.
    jdbcDataSource.5.name=jdbc/Oracle
    jdbcDataSource.5.url=jdbc:oracle:thin:rmi:??;create=true
    jdbcDriver.0.name=COM.cloudscape.core.RmiJdbcDriver
    jdbcXADataSource.0.name=jdbc/XACloudscape
    jdbcXADataSource.0.classname=COM.cloudscape.core.RemoteXaDataSource
    jdbcXADataSource.0.dbpassword=
    jdbcXADataSource.0.dbuser=
    jdbcXADataSource.0.prop.createDatabase=create
    jdbcXADataSource.0.prop.databaseName=CloudscapeDB
    ==============
    Any pointers on how to get Oracle 8i to work with j2sdkee1.3 b2 will be appreciated. thanks.

    You are right. It seems the format has changed.
    However, now there is and admin tool that comes with J2EE SDK 1.3 Now you don't have to touch the config file by hand.
    You can use this tool to get the configuration done.
    To add JDBC driver the command is...
    j2eeadmin -addJdbcDriver oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver
    and to add a data source the command is...
    j2eeadmin -addJdbcDatasource jdbc/Oracle jdbc:oracle:thin@rtc:1521:acct
    Read details about this and other configuration you can do using this toll in the file %J2EE_HOME%/doc/release/ConfigGuide.html

  • How can you get the itunes app onto your computer so I'm able to get music off my ipod?, how can you get the itunes app onto your computer so I'm able to get music off my ipod?

    i got a new computer and im unable to get the itunes app on there to conect my ipod to it and get my music and pictures off of it. does anyone know how im able to download itunes on a laptop?

    Click Itunes at the top of this page and download it.
    The ipod is not a storage/backup device.  The sync is one way - computer to ipod.  The only exception is itunes purchases:  File>Devices>Transfer Purchases
    You should copy everything from your old computer or your backup copy of your old computer, to your new one.

  • How can i get the map app to show Spanish street and avenue names in that language ... not in English

    i have ipad 4th gen and ipad original ... using both in Bogota Colombia thru the Colombian Apple Store.  I have the map app in spanish on the ipad original but cannot change the ipad 4 map app to show the streets (calles), avenues (carreras / avenidas) in spanish ... such as Calle 100 .. or Avenida Suba, etc.
    i have changed "always english" to off, changed the overall language to Spanish, rebooted, etc, etc ... but to no avail. 
    Please assist
    Thank you

    @Peizoandme ... that i have done and that results in changing the tag info language ... direction -> direccion but the map itself does not change ... shows the street name as Street 100 rather than Calle 100 ... what this all causes is when trying to establish routes from home to pin drop for example, message is cannot find.  So, still stumped.  Thanks for the reply though. 

  • How do you get core audio to work with maverick. I'm using logic pro X

    i'm having problem with core audio and maverick

    It sounds as if you have altered the Tempo after recording the Audio ( but before selecting +Follow Tempo+ ).
    This would make your Regions adapt from the old tempo to the new one, therefore changing their timing.
    Here's a bit more info:
    Audio files recorded in Logic Pro can follow the project tempo—inclusive of tempo changes—set in the global tracks.
    +Note: These audio files can also follow the first key signature set in the global tracks.+
    As an example: If you record a bass solo at 100 bpm, you can change the project tempo to 120 bpm and the bass solo will automatically be played back at the new tempo.
    The function works with all audio files that were recorded in, or bounced/exported from, Logic Pro.
    The function only works in the parent project (the project the audio files were created in). If you drag a file recorded in a given project to another project with the Finder, the file can not follow the project tempo.
    Bounced or exported files can only follow the project tempo if the “Add resulting files to Audio Bin” option was enabled in the Export or Bounce window—prior to the bounce or export.
    Files copied between two projects retain the ability to follow the project tempo.
    The project’s tempo information is used to tag the beats in the recording. The function works best if your audio files match the project tempo as precisely as possible. The longer your audio files are, the more RAM is required for this functionality to work properly.

  • How Do you get Time Machine to work with a network drive?

    I have not been able to choose a Drive for Time Machine on a Network Drive. The network drive is active and shown on my desktop. How Do I use it?

    Correct. Back up to a network volume (other than Time Capsule) is not supported, so if you want to do it you have to use the command line to set something as shown in the article.
    Another option you could do would be to create a large disk image file on the NAS device and mount it on your client and back up to that. You'd use Disk Utility to create a large (say, 200 GB) sparse image on the network storage and then double click it to mount it on your machine and set TM to back up to that. I could show you how to do this in 30 seconds but instructing it over a forum post... not so easy

    Unfortunately the Apple TV doesn't have a web browser so you can't do that.

    Hi Michael-
    I do not have any problem with using shift registers in timed loops.  What version of LabVIEW are you using?  Can you please elaborate on why neither shift registers or local variables meet your needs?  I have attached a VI that saves a previous iteration and then computes and displays the difference.  Let me know if you have problems running it.
    Thanks-

  • HT3310 how do i get my headphone to work with the iphone?

    how do i get my headphone to work with the iphone? Are there some settings
    that I need to turn on so I can use my headphone while talking on the phone?

    Are you using the earbuds that came with the iPhone? If you are using other earphones, it's possible that they need an adaptor to work with the iPhone's recessed headphone jack. 

  • If you deleted a  device off of find my iphone.how do you get the device to start back up agian and put it back on find my iphone?

    if you deleted a  device off of find my iphone.how do you get the device to start back up agian and put it back on find my iphone? becuase i have delted my dads iphone acedentily of find my iphone and it is nownot working. his phone is just staying at a black screen with a loading circle on it. i need to know how to fix this..like do i go the to apple store or the carrier store or can i fix it at home?

    Try these two ways to fix the iPhone (in order).  If neither works, you would have to take it to the store.
    1.  Reset the iPhone.  Hold the on/off and home buttons togehter for about 10 seconds.  If it works, you'll get the Apple logo and then something good should happen.
    2.  Try recovery mode as described here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808
    If one of these work, you can then re-introduce the iPhone to Find My iPhone by doing Settings > iCloud > Find My iPhone = "On" on the device.

  • Iphone 3GS- How do you get the pictures to show up larger when someone call

    Iphone 3GS- How do you get the pictures to show up larger when someone calls? I know this seems trivial but I have difficulty seeing, so one of the reasons I actually purchased this phone was for this feature. When the photos do come up they come up in the top right corner in small boxes / windows. I already google'd this topic and they suggested importing the photos - to itunes and than directly on to the iphone, I did this and it didn't work. Additionally I took a few test photos from the iphone and tried setting them to contacts. This didnt work either. I looked in settings and could not find anything that discussed this issue. Although I do believe I have seen iphones that ring with large pictures. Am i Crazy?

    You aren't crazy.
    Adding the photo to contacts on the computer gets you the smaller pix when people call.
    Assign the photo on the phone itself and you get full-size pix.
    Additionally I took a few test photos from the iphone and tried setting them to contacts. This didnt work either.
    So, that certainly should work. Try it again? Try it with a brand new contact, maybe it is not overwriting a previously existing picture.
    I suppose there is a small possibility that Apple thought this differing behavior was a bug instead of a feature and "fixed" it with a recent update, but I doubt it.
