How it's possible?! Can I being hacked? Help me out please!

Hi there! I'm so begginer on MAC OS and I have heaps of questions. Hope people here help me out.
My English is not good so I apologise any gramar mistakes.
I tried to describe my problem above:
My macbook pro has a 320GB hard disk but when i click at volume account in order to get information about it , Mac OS shows me that the volume has 639.46 GB capacity where 305,42GB of this capacity are free and the other 334,04GB are used.
Because I had recent problems with hackers when I was using Windows this situation really concerned me.
How is it possible?
I send above more information about the volume:
1) I have File Vault option activated in my account.
2) The information show are: Type: Volume / Disk Image: /Users/.gus/gus.sparsebundle / Format: Mac OS expand Jounaled
PLEASE anyone ....
Thanks a lot
Gustavo

1) I have File Vault option activated in my account.

  • Really need help on how to write this program some 1 plz help me out here.

    i am new to java and i confused on how to be writing this program.
    i have completed the Part 1 but i am stuck on Part 2 & 3 so it would would be really great if any 1 could help me out on how to write the program.
    Part I
    An algorithm describes how a problem is solved in terms of the actions to be executed, and it specifies the order in which the actions should be executed. An algorithm must be detailed enough so that you can "walk" through the algorithm with test data. This means the algorithm must include all the necessary calculations.
    Here is an algorithm that calculates the cost of a rectangular window. The
    total cost of a window is based on two prices; the cost of the glass plus the cost of the metal frame around the glass. The glass is 50 cents per
    square inch (area) and the metal frame is 75 cents per inch (perimeter).
    The length and width of the window will be entered by the user. The
    output of the program should be the length and width (entered by the user)
    and the total cost of the window.
    FORMULAS:
    area = length times width perimeter = 2 times (length plus width)
    Here is the corresponding algorithm:
    read in the length of the window in inches
    read in the width of the window in inches
    compute the area
    compute the cost of the glass (area times 50 cents)
    compute the perimeter
    compute the cost of the frame (perimeter times 75 cents)
    compute the total cost of the window (cost of glass plus cost of frame)
    display the length, width and total cost
    The next step would be to "desk check" the algorithm. First you would need to make up the "test data". For this algorithm, the test data would involve making up a length and a width, and then calculating the cost of the window based on those values. The results are computing by hand or using a calculator. The results of your test data are always calculated before translating your algorithm into a programming language. Here is an example of the test data for the problem given:
    length = 10
    width = 20
    area = 200, glass cost= 100.00 (area times 50 cents)
    perimeter = 60, frame cost = 45.00 (perimeter times 75 cents)
    total cost =145.00
    Once the test data is chosen, you should "walk" through the algorithm using the test data to see if the algorithm produces the same answers that you obtained from your calculations.
    If the results are the same, then you would begin translating your algorithm into a programming language. If the results are not the same, then you would attempt to find out what part of the algorithm is incorrect and correct it. It is also
    necessary to re-check your hand calculations.
    Each time you revise your algorithm, you should walk through it with your test data again. You keep revising your algorithm until it produces the same answers as your test data.
    ?Now write and submit a Java program that will calculate the cost of a rectangular window according to the algorithm explained. Be sure to prompt for input and label your output.?
    Part II
    Write, compile and execute a Java program that displays the following prompts:
    Enter an integer.
    Enter a second integer
    Enter a third integer.
    Enter a fourth integer.
    After each prompt is displayed, your program should use the nextint method of the Scanner class to accept a number from the keyboard for the displayed
    prompt. After the fourth integer has been entered, your program should calculate and display the average of the four integers and the value of the first integer entered raised to the power of the second integer entered. The average and result of raising to a power should be included in an appropriate messages
    (labels).
    Sample Test Data:
    Set 1: 100 100 100 100
    Set 2: 100 0 100 0
    Be sure to write an algorithm first before attempting to write the Java code. Walk through your algorithm with test data to be sure it works as anticipated.
    Part III
    Repeat Part lI but only calculate the average, not the power. This time, make sure to use the same variable name, number, for each of the four numbers input. Also use the variable sum for the sum of the numbers. (Hint: To do this, you may use the statement sum = sum + number after each number is read.)
    For Part 1 this is what i got
    import java.util.Scanner;
    public class Window
         public static void main(String[] args)
              double length, width, glass_cost, perimeter, frame_cost, area, total;
              Scanner keyboard = new Scanner (System.in);
              System.out.println("Enter the length of the window in inches");
              length = keyboard.nextInt();
              System.out.println("Enter the width of the window in inches");
              width = keyboard.nextInt();
              area = length * width;
              glass_cost = area * .5;
              perimeter = 2 * (length + width);
              frame_cost = perimeter * .75;
              total = glass_cost + frame_cost;
                   System.out.println("The Length of the window is " + length + "inches");
                   System.out.println("The Width of the window is " + length + "inches");
                   System.out.println("The total cost of the window is $ " + total);
         Enter the length of the window in inches
         5
         Enter the width of the window in inches
         8
         The Length of the window is 5.0inches
         The Width of the window is 5.0inches
         The total cost of the window is $ 39.5
    Press any key to continue . . .

  • Can somebody help me out please?

    I have no clue in php or mysql. Just tinker with 'free' softwares that makes my life interesting and learning.
    I am trying to use this software:
    http://stanxterm.aecom.yu.edu/secondary/stocks/index.php
    Which uses http://www.dadabik.org
    I installed. Everything looks fine. But when I go to admin.php, my pages are blank-white. With the following errors:
    Notice: Undefined variable: head_extra in ./header.php on line 110
    Laboratory of so and so - Laboratory of so and so - Lab inventory
    Notice: Undefined variable: log_status in ./header.php on line 129

    And in other places, there are many errors. like
    Notice: Undefined variable: table in ./header.php on line 133
    Could somebody please help me out?
    Thanks,
    drb

    Have you read the application README file and confirmed that you meet all the requirements for installing it? The best place to start would be your apache error_log, which on some systems is located in /var/log/httpd/error_log .. (assuming you're using Linux).
    Just as a side note, I tried using dadabik one time, and I couldn't get it working right away.. it wasn't setup to handle the 10g "easy" connection format, and the traditional connection format wasn't working, either. I had to hack around in a few of the scripts to get it running, at which point I was underwhelmed with what it could do. It requires one of the "magic quotes" settings to be turned on, which can be a security risk in certain situations.

  • Hello! I've downloaded the latest version of iTunes, but since then my iPhone wouldn't sync! Can anybody help me out, please? I have a Windows8

    HI! As I've written on the title, since I've downloaded the iTunes latest version, I'm not able to sync my iPhone5 anymore... it just doesn't sync. I've already checked the usb cable, and uninstalled the software and downloaded again... and it's just the same. I have a Window 8 and I'm not receiving a running error problem... so... Can anybody over there, help me, please? I will really appreciate it. Thank you.

    Yes reinstalled itunes a couple of days ago but got it sorted now thanks, the problem was that when i wiped my computer last week and reinstalled everything using the discs the free McAfee anti virus that the computer came with was still in my all programmes list although i aren't using it. This morning i tried unistalling that (didn't think it would make any difference as the programme wasn't active) once uninstalled i pluged the ipod in and hey presto it is now recognised by itunes, THANK GOODNESS. So panick over for now, thank you very much.

  • How to process option value to database, plz help me out

    hi guys,
    can any one help me out in passing the option value to database.
    i have a 4 options, when any option selected, that should be processed to the database
    <form name="createfrm">
    <select name="select">
    <option value="1">1</option>
    <option value="2">2</option>
    <option value="3">3</option>
    <option value="4">4</option>
    </select>
    plz., can any one help me out by giving me the javascript code

    here's the part of the code:
    In th javascript this is the one that populates the array gender[].
    gender1[] array is where i put the values from the database so it is part of the jsp code. You will store what you fetch in gender1[] array.
    Then you store it in another array in javascript using the follwing codes:
    var gender = new Array(
    <%
    out.println("\""+gender1[0]+"\"");
    for(int ip = 1; ip < 3; ip++) {out.println(", \"" + gender1[ip] + "\"");}
    %>
    Now for populating the values of the dropdown list You will use the following codes:
    function fillGenCivil(){
    for (var jj=0; jj<3; jj++){
                                       document.registration1.gender.length++;
                                       document.registration1.gender.options[counta].value = gender[counta];
                                       document.registration1.gender.options[counta].text = gender[counta];
                                       counta++;
    the in the html tags: the form code will be like this
    <select name="gender" class="txtMed" > </select>
    These codes will automatically populate data in your dropdown list

  • How to stop an iPhone from being hacked

    Can an iPhone be hacked through your iCloud account or email account (meaning your Apple ID). I have found disturbing things on the internet to monitor phones such as auto-forward.com. For about $70 you can monitor everything on a smart phone. Of course they're disclaimer is that being a parent, you want to make sure what your kids are up to and it says "not to be used for illegal purposes". But I am an adult and someone is monitoring me. My Apple ID password only works when this person wants it to work. My email and texts disappear.
    HOW DO I STOP THIS??  I have already traded my phone in changed apple IDs, the techs at the apple store found strange software diagnostics.
    Law enforcement is not very tech savvy. Can data forensics trace the person doing this? About $2000, but worth it to catch the stalker.

    Your Apple ID can be compromised. That would allow a miscreant to buy things using your account, access your iCloud information and potentially wipe the phone remotely. If your concerned about that, make sure that you use a complex password and 2 step verification. Make sure your recovery email account is also secure.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5570
    You should also put a password on your phone to prevent people from gaining physical access to it.
    Don't believe everything you read on the internet. In order to use such software on an iPhone, someone would need to have access to your phone in order to jailbreak it. If you restore the phone as new and follow the advice above, no one will be monitoring your phone (except possibly the government and they are not going to be deleting your texts and emails).
    Best of luck.

  • Very Strange Email Occurances - Is it possible device is being hacked?

    Hi
    First of all I tried to check on similar occurrences by search prior to posting.  Sorry if this issue has been addressed and I missed it.
    Carrier: Verizon
    Model info and OS version: Curve 8530 v5.0.0.973
    The phone was purchased new in late August 
    Two seperate "strange" issues have been occuring which have been happening for the last week or so.
    (1) One Poker Forum I belong to has repeatedly sent me a "lost password" email which you can request if you forget your password and they send you the current password
    (2) I have gotten several "Welcome to Yahoo" messages on an account that I have had for almost 10 years.
    What is even more strange to me, is that the Blackberry Device is receiving these email messages from two different yahoo accounts, AND these messages DO NOT show up when I check my email via my home computer (and I have not erased them in any way).  All my other emails are showing up both on the phone and on my computer.
    Note: I have four email accounts hooked to the Blackberry
    Not sure if this is also connected to problem, but in the same timeframe I have had several "messages" with blank titles and the only information contained when I clicked that I can recall was something about my email address in small print at the top (I can not recall exact wording and somehow these messages are now gone)
    Any Ideas?
    Should I be concerned?
    Thank You 

    Yep, it's been covered in the Forum many times. There is not a chance your BlackBerry has been hacked, there is no way for it to be hacked.
    Your mystery poker emails... I don't know. You might ask that developer or site owner.
    The other Yahoo emails, were they asking for account validation?

  • How do I update CAN messages being transmitted as a periodic waveform?

    I am using NI-CAN 1.5 to transmit CAN messages with a CAN Object using the "Transmit Periodic Waveform" communication type. The CAN card I am using is a dual port PXI-8461.
    I wish to update the waveform message(s) but am running into problems. I configure the CAN Object with a write buffer size of 2 and then start transmitting 2 messages with one message going out every 500ms. These 2 messages are correctly getting placed on the bus. To update the messages, I successfully stop the CAN Object and attempt to write new data into the write buffer. This is where I am running into problems. The ncWrite VI is failing with an error of 0xBFF62008 (Write Queue Overflow).
    Upon further
    inspection, I noticed that when I stopped the Object and there was only 1 of 2 messages pending, I could successfully write one time; however, the second write would fail with the same error. If 2 messages were pending, neither write would be successful. I need to be able to update both messages. I thought maybe I could use the ncWait VI to wait for the write queue to empty and then write in 2 new messages; however, this will not work since the ncWait VI never returns before a timeout occurs in "Transmit Periodic Waveform" communication type. Either 2 or 1 messages are always pending so it never sees that the card is ready for new data.
    I looked in the Programmer's Reference Manual, and this is the procedure recommended. (A bit different, but I tried it and came up with the same results.) The Reference Manual claims ncWrite replaces the oldest data in the queue on page 3-30, but on page 2-40 it says ncWrite returns an error when called on a full queue.
    Does anyone see anyt
    hing that I'm doing wrong or have an alternate way to accomplish what I want? Thanks for your help.

    The "Transmit Periodic Waveform" section (pg 3-30) of the NI-CAN Programmer's Reference states, "Use this configuration to transmit a fixed sequence of CAN data frames over and over, one CAN data frame every period."
    The words "fixed sequence" denote that it was not intended to change as the program runs. I appolgize if this was not clear. Any suggestions for improvement to the documentation can be emailed to [email protected]
    If those two data sets do not change at run-time, they could be merged together. For example, make the buffer the size of both data sets added together. Start by Writing the first element of set one, then the first element of set two, then the second element of set one, then the second element of set two, etc.

    For anyone who's interested, apparently I'm not the only one with this problem, others have asked the developrs to remove printStackTrace() from the SAAJ code. For now we have to redirect standard error or ignore

  • How to prevent email id from being used to send out bogus emails?

    My yahoo email id was "hijacked" last week and bogus emails were sent out under my id to my contact list. I have a macbook with snow leopard and norton antivirus. What can I do to prevent this from happening again.

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    If you haven't already done so, change your Yahoo password to something extremely secure.
    Then go to Yahoo's recommendations for compromised accounts, found here:
    http://help.yahoo.com/kb/index?page=content&y=PROD_MAIL_CLASSIC&locale=en_US&id= SLN3420&pir=.ERun_NibUlqprOy6AQ5KLRAOrUdr0acOZBh12BjZ6uUgTx7O5KFy_g3RVY.usintguY mSbHjESfUDXQC_FwPo2Cxt_KEGnx3QnKIu6C7_5._vmX207fxMRD53yXCsEdulnEIA1af.bHN_fWp2R_ tQ_5VnaDSXZv1mCvr1ctsfKaP._9hTnsSqrM4SMQ6b_tNq7QQHsysg1qM14mLsADfJLF2DZmVIYIPDpo hK15cCGe_JhidaJ1Vxt5O07TuhoshHRCrQ3eaa0gkp6dnbqceRgKRWuaLKDL7L6ovGban7n4UzFvdWWp x4TDgNxgLv3ehjmTj0.Hnh1lHKWL6cG6iJ0E1xjY_jfBAX3d2cwKpgTDV_AI8T25LElgA_upWicMBpj_ OjZ9sk9asfCbAOTXnQ--
    It's likely the hacker sent spam to your Yahoo-account email addresses, without accessing your Mac Address Book. (Most of the time it's hard to tell, because you probably have many of the same addresses in both lists.)
    Next, change your password on EVERY account.
    Make certain that every site you visit as a registered user has a unique account name and password.
    Yeah, that can be a lot to manage.
    Let your Mac 'Keychain' help manage all that information by remembering which user ID and which secure password goes where. There are password manager programs for sale such as 1Password. I don't currently use it, so I can't recommend it.
    In my experience, there is ongoing and widespread 'hacking' at Yahoo, Hotmail, and other popular free email accounts. Why? Because most free email accounts permit unlimited unsuccessful login attempts and never 'lock' accounts for suspicious activity the way banks and brokerage firms do.
    So far, the hackers are primarily using the accounts send out 'spam' to your trusted email list.
    Hacking most often occurs when someone discovers or guesses the password to the email account, and it's about 99% certain that it had nothing to do with your MacBook, or any malware or virus on your physical computer. No, it doesn't hurt to run a virus and/or malware scan, but it is 99% unlikely you'll find anything harmful to OS X. You may discover a few of your incoming email attachments DO contain Windows viruses and malware!
    Virtually everyone I correspond with via a free Yahoo account has been 'hacked' in the last six months. Three Yahoo friends sent me the same 'no subject' email with a surreptitious link to a FoxNews video about weight-loss in the same day!
    When thousands or millions of passwords and/or account names are revealed and posted online (as documented here:http://www.latimes.com/business/technology/la-fi-tn-eharmony-hacked-linkedin-201 20606,0,4578300.story ) enterprising hackers worldwide will begin systematically testing them everywhere.
    If your email address is widely-used and widely-published and your password is not very secure, every account you have is eventually vulnerable.
    DO USE a combination of upper and lower-case letters mixed with numbers and permitted punctuation that does not contain common sequences, names, or dictionary words.
    If you don't want to buy software, use the first letters and numbers of phrases that are easy for you to remember, but meaningful only to you. The longer the phrase, the better:
    MyLimeGreen72DodgeDartHadA340Six-PackEngineAndATorque-FliteTranny!
    MLG72DDha340S-PEaaT-FT!
    Of course I don't actually use that, but yeah, there are still a few of those cars around: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kUk0jdmAKzM
