How to determine full laptop model when label is gone?

The label with the laptop model is gone and I don't know the full model name, so I cannot find the drivers I need. I tried using the Service Station application but it only displays the left part of the model name. Is there an application that can pull the full model name from the laptop?
Thanks!

How to switch off laptop screen when you connect external LCD?

Hello, being new to Mac I'd like to ask if it is possible to completely switch off the laptop screen when you connect an external LCD screen and use it as your main desktop. My MacBook Pro does that automatically when I launch a full screen game, say World of Warcraft, but I would like to be able to do it manually.

If you have it connected to a keyboard and mouse, you just shut the lid and use it that way. Of course, I'd be curious why you wouldn't want to use the screen. Having two screens can be extremely useful. The only problem with it is that then you may miss it when you are away from your second screen!

How to determine full version of latest adobe reader

Hi,
How can I determine full version of latest Adobe Reader without installing Adobe Reader?
I mean I need to know 4th digit of version, it is the most important for me.
Adobe Shockwave and Flashdownload pages provide such informations via JSON from
HTTP request.
Reader download website shows me only 3 digits 10.1.3 and I need to read 10.1.3.23
to automate my security checker.
Thanks in advance for reply.
David

No it's not true. latest version is 10.1.3.23.
Latest digit is probably security patch.
The latest digit is the build number. This may be different for different modules; you may find DLLs that have a higher build number than AcroRd32.exe
If there is a new security release, it will be identified by the first three digits.

How to determine the correct moment when Word has finished to write to a docx file

Hello,
we are currently passing a document to Microsoft Word for editing and want to take back the changed/saved document when editing is finished. But it seems we have issues to determine the correct moment when Word has for sure saved all changes and
it is save to take back the file.
To pass the document to Word we use ShellExecuteEx with the file name. Then we use the Running Objects Table and a File Moniker to wait for the file to be closed.
Sample code:
HRESULT hRes = S_OK;
CComPtr<IMoniker> spIMoniker;
CComPtr<IRunningObjectTable> pRT;
hRes = GetRunningObjectTable(0, &pRT);
if (FAILED(hRes))
TWTHROW1(TWERR_ANY_ERROR, hRes, _T("GetRunningObjectTable failed."));
hRes = ::CreateFileMoniker(m_strTempFilename.AllocSysString(), &spIMoniker);
if (FAILED(hRes))
TWTHROW1(TWERR_ANY_ERROR, hRes, _T("CreateFileMoniker failed."));
while (S_OK == pRT->IsRunning(spIMoniker) && !m_bShutdown)
Sleep(500);
continue;
So we wait for the file to be removed from the Running Objects Table and additionally wait until we can get exclusive access to the file before we take over the changed file. But still it seems to happen that we take the file too early. Hence it
seems the file is removed from the Running Objects Table by Microsoft Word before saving the file has completed.
Is this behaviour of Microsoft Word by design? What is the best practice to identify the moment in time when writing the file has completed. Some other applications like Winzip seem to do the same thing.
Thanks,
Wolfgang

How to see full size images when selecting multiple photos

In the Photos app, I click to view a photo and it shows up full screen like it used to. But now when I try to select multiple photos to upload to an email by hitting the send-to button at the lower left, suddenly all the photos are thumbnails at the top and a host of options fill the screen where the full-sized image used to be. Without full size previews I can't tell what photos in a series are really the better ones. Is there a way in iOS 8.1.1 to flip through your photos full screen and only select a few? It seems like this worked before but now this function has been removed? Thanks

Thanks for your answer. I think you are correct.
I did discover that when entering the first letter of a keyword in the box, a list comes up with suggestions. Frequently that list is only of the keywords that begin with the letter I entered. Once in a while I can get the entire list but I don't know how I do it. It seems intermittent but I suspect it is not. Any idea how that happens? Thanks again.

How to avoid full Table scan when using Rule based optimizer (Oracle817)

1. We have a Oracle 8.1.7 DB, and the optimizer_mode is set to "RULE"
2. There are three indexes on table cm_contract_supply, which is a large table having 28732830 Rows, and average row length 149 Bytes
COLUMN_NAME INDEX_NAME
PROGRESS_RECID XAK11CM_CONTRACT_SUPPLY
COMPANY_CODE XIE1CM_CONTRACT_SUPPLY
CONTRACT_NUMBER XIE1CM_CONTRACT_SUPPLY
COUNTRY_CODE XIE1CM_CONTRACT_SUPPLY
SUPPLY_TYPE_CODE XIE1CM_CONTRACT_SUPPLY
VERSION_NUMBER XIE1CM_CONTRACT_SUPPLY
CAMPAIGN_CODE XIF1290CM_CONTRACT_SUPPLY
COMPANY_CODE XIF1290CM_CONTRACT_SUPPLY
COUNTRY_CODE XIF1290CM_CONTRACT_SUPPLY
SUPPLIER_BP_ID XIF801CONTRACT_SUPPLY
COMMISSION_LETTER_CODE XIF803CONTRACT_SUPPLY
COMPANY_CODE XIF803CONTRACT_SUPPLY
COUNTRY_CODE XIF803CONTRACT_SUPPLY
COMPANY_CODE XPKCM_CONTRACT_SUPPLY
CONTRACT_NUMBER XPKCM_CONTRACT_SUPPLY
COUNTRY_CODE XPKCM_CONTRACT_SUPPLY
SUPPLY_SEQUENCE_NUMBER XPKCM_CONTRACT_SUPPLY
VERSION_NUMBER XPKCM_CONTRACT_SUPPLY
3. We are querying the table for a particular contract_number and version_number. We want to avoid full table scan.
SELECT /*+ INDEX(XAK11CM_CONTRACT_SUPPLY) */
rowid, pms.cm_contract_supply.*
FROM pms.cm_contract_supply
WHERE
contract_number = '0000000000131710'
AND version_number = 3;
However despite of giving hint, query results are fetched after full table scan.
Execution Plan
0 SELECT STATEMENT Optimizer=RULE (Cost=1182 Card=1 Bytes=742)
1 0 TABLE ACCESS (FULL) OF 'CM_CONTRACT_SUPPLY' (Cost=1182 Card=1 Bytes=742)
4. I have tried giving
SELECT /*+ FIRST_ROWS + INDEX(XAK11CM_CONTRACT_SUPPLY) */
rowid, pms.cm_contract_supply.*
FROM pms.cm_contract_supply
WHERE
contract_number = '0000000000131710'
AND version_number = 3;
and
SELECT /*+ CHOOSE + INDEX(XAK11CM_CONTRACT_SUPPLY) */
rowid, pms.cm_contract_supply.*
FROM pms.cm_contract_supply
WHERE
contract_number = '0000000000131710'
AND version_number = 3;
But it does not work.
Is there some way without changing optimizer mode and without creating an additional index, we can use the index instead of full table scan?

Any help is appreciated.

I found that tabindex is not applicable. But i think it is an important point for better handling.
Is there no easy way to do it?

How to determine a Bidirectional relation when add a related Content in UCM

Good Day All,
i want to use "ADD_RELATED_CONTENT" service that are defined within the LinkManager Component.
i use the following parameters in my code and it works fine
request.putLocal("IdcService", "ADD_RELATED_CONTENT");
request.putLocal("dLinkTypeID", "4");
request.putLocal("dSource", "CS");
request.putLocal("dID", "16162");
request.putLocal("addLinkID", dId);
what i want to do:
- add a related content of type Cross-Reference Class (dLinkTypeID=4) with Bidirection relation not unidirection. The above code add a content as a unidirection relation.
is there is any specific parameter that i need to specify in order to determine the Bidirectional relation?
Regards.

actually am working on related content services; handle them thourgh (JAVA + RIDC).My general recommendation is: turn on server-wide tracing on requestaudit (or perhaps sometimes even services) - see http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23943_01/doc.1111/e10792/c03_processes.htm#CSMSP535 how to do that, perform the scenario from GUI, and check what's being called. Often, you will find your answer there.

Canon Pixma pro 100 Ink how to identify the black cartridges when label was accidently removed

I just started putting a new Canon Pixma Pro 100 printer together- I was not thinking and removed two of the grey (light), and grey cartridges labels. Now I do not know which to put in the slots, I cannot see any gradient by holding them up to the light, and the actual cartridge is not marked. I am soooo dumb, any suggestions.

How do I make a DVD when iDVD is gone & iMovie exports in .m4v

I need to burn a DVD to play home videos in a DVD player. Since Apple killed off iDVD, I've wasted over 2 hours trying to figure out how I can create such a DVD-video. Someone suggested "Burn" but Burn only handles .avi or .mpeg files (which is the sort of thing one ought to mention when providing advice) and iMovie only exports .m4v files. So before I waste another hour trying to find a converter online, can anyone who:
has made a movie in iMovie
has exported it successfully
has converted it from .m4v to .avi or .mpeg
has successfully burned it to a DVD-Video
has played it in a DVD-video player
tell me what software they used to achieve this.
Thank you.

tell me what software they used to achieve this.
iDVD.
Apple sells iDVD on disk as part of iLife 11.
Yes, there are programs that will put a movie on a DVD. I have tried most of the other substitutes including Toast, Burn, and others. None of them come anywhere near the ease-of-use and power of iDVD. IDVD is specifically designed to work with iMovie.
With iDVD you can easily and quickly create DVDs with menus and graphics almost on the level of what Hollywood can do.
IDVD is a wonderful piece of software and well worth the low cost of $40.
http://www.amazon.com/Apple-MC623Z-A-iLife-VERSION/dp/B003XKRZES/ref=sr_1_1?ie=U
IDVD remains a popular application in the Apple community. For a variety of obvious reasons Apple would prefer your movies to be stored on the cloud. Many people however prefer to have a physical copy, that they can possess, that is easily playable on over 700 million DVD players worldwide.

Determining end of file when file consists of objects

Hi
I'm having trouble working out how to determine end of file when the file consists of multiple objects
I've written multiple Person objects to an XML file and I can read the first back
public Vector<Person> readVectorFromFile() throws CJException {
         Vector<Person> v = new Vector<Person>();
         try {
         XMLDecoder d = new XMLDecoder(new BufferedInputStream(new FileInputStream("VectorStore.xml")));
         // while there are Persons remaining in the file
         Person p;
         //for each p in the file
         do {
             p = (Person) d.readObject();
             v.add(p);
         } while(// can't work out how to test this);
         d.close();
         catch(IOException ioe) {
             throw new CJException("Error reading file: " + ioe.getCause());
         }al the books either give examples with the reading of a single object or reading multiple charaters...i've tried testing when p is null and using int c but these give ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsExceptions at runtime.
Please could someone point me in the right direction?
Thanks

True, but that is not the case in this instance, if that is what you're getting at. The problem is that the "read" method of this "Reader" throws an ArrayIndexOutOfBounds exception, without providing any way of figuring out if there is even anything to read. And that, in and of itself, is a remarkable event.
The only other ways I see to avoid are all cludge work-arounds or innefficient. You could have the first object in the file be an Integer to indicate the number of objects (but what if, then, for whatever reason, the Stream is "emtpy"). You could parse the XML stream counting the number of "object" elements then push it all back, or reset if the underlying stream supports one of those, or reopen the stream and parse it again (this time with the readObject method), all of which are highly ineffecient. You could transmit, beforehand, how many elements there are, or "define" that there will "always" be only so many elements, etc.
Everyone of those possible solutions (with the exception of the second, which is simply inneffecient) makes the entire thing rigid and inflexible, and, essentially, non-reusable.
The while (or whatever) loop and catch at least make it generally usuable in all situations. It is, I agree, less than optimal, but still the "best" option, in this particular instance.

Create a business model when we have only one source table

Hi,
How to create a business model when we have only one source table in Physical layer
Regards
Swathi

This is very much possible and feasible. Its called as Single Table model. Good example is SA System Subject Area where we just have a single physical source. No need to create Alias in Physical. Simply use the same table twice in BMM with one Logical Table as Dummy Fact..Like say Count of Users (aggregated). Then apply normal Complex join in BMM and present in presentation layer.

@Naiks, having suffered through unsuccessful synching attempts for Calendar and Contacts myself, l would suggest you try the following:
UNINSTALL iCloud control panel from your PC. Seems silly, but do it.
Go into Outlook, and look at the very top menu. Click FILE, then ACCOUNT SETTINGS, then click the popup box.
You will see a list of all your email accounts. Make sure that ONE of them has a checkmark against it. If not, select the account your want as your default, and click "set as default.
Exit out of Outlook and reboot your machine.
Now reinstall iCloud, check CALENDAR and CONTACTS, and do as instructed when prompted.
Reboot for good luck and now launch OUTLOOK. All that remains is to locate your iCloud Contacts and Calendar files, and make them your default.
IMPORTANT: Don't panic if you can't find your contacts -- they're there. Click CONTACTS and you'll see you have several available contact files. Locate the one label "iCloud" in grey type. Right-click on it, select PROPERTIES, then click the Outlook Address Book tab. Check the box that says something like "Make this my default Outlook Address Book." Keep clicking "apply" and "okay" until you've exited out of the dialog box maze.
You may have to do something similar with your Calendar files. I dd not, but if you need to, do it.
Everything should now sync pretty seamlessly.
I didn't have the exact same problem as you, but my dilemma was close enough. Good luck!

Have situation on a unprotected wireless when accessing I cannot get a router address. I'm on system 10.6.8 on MacBook Pro summer 2009. Any thoughts on how to determine what's up?

Have situation on a unprotected wireless when accessing I cannot get a router address. I'm on system 10.6.8 on MacBook Pro summer 2009. Any thoughts on how to determine what's up?

You have basically verified that the issue is NOT with your MBP, but with this particular Wi-Fi network. Even though it may be unsecured, the provider may have elected to configure it for MAC filtering. In this case I am referring to the MAC (Media Access Control) address and not your Mac laptop itself. If this has been enabled, your Mac would only be able to connect if the Mac's MAC address was added to that filter.

Overwrote (full) iPod contacts with Laptop Contacts when syncing in iTunes

Overwrote (full) iPod contacts with Laptop Contacts when syncing in iTunes. Can I get old (full) contacts back?
Bakstory: Laptop crashed, got restored, but without contacts. Mistakenly thought I could upload them from my iPod. I hit sync. Big mistake. When I disconnected, I saw my iPod has the measley 4 contacts I DID have on my laptop after the crash, instead of the hundreds I had on the iPod just minutes before.
Note: There is nothing in the desktop Trashcan that says "contacts."
I also tried to post this question in the iTunes section, but for some reason I can't seem to post there.
Thanks for any help!
(Man, everyone agrees this is a design flaw--in how you share info from iPod to CPU and can easily overwrite things you don't want to. They should fix that.)

Yes, you can do that.
On the computer that you only want to sync contacts & calendars to just unselect content like music, photos, apps, etc.
You can only sync content like music with one computer at a time, content like contacts with as many as you like.
Before you sync your contacts & calendar with the laptop, make sure you have one entry in address book & ical, select merge at the prompt, do not select replace.
Make sure you disable auto sync when a ipod/iphone is connected under preferences in itunes.
