How To Get Sound To Play Out From MBP Onto HDTV?
I hooked up my MBP to my HDTV last night using the DVI - HDMI cable and had no issues with picture.
This is the model of HDTV I have: http://www.hitachidigitalmedia.com/product_techspec.do?pt=17&pg=69&proid=593
I then connected plugged in a phono L+R to 3.5mm Jack Audio Cable from the headphone port on my Mac to the PC Audio Input on the TV. Nada sound.
Then tried connecting to the Audio Input points on the TV. Still nothing.
The only Audio sockets my HDTV has are:
Audio Input •
PC Audio Input •
Audio Line Out •
Headphone Socket •
Component Audio
so don't think I can use TOSLINK either.
Can anyone help? Spent last night with picture off the HDTV but sound off a set of external Creative speakers hooked up to the MBP.
Thank You,
Arivind Abraham
I think that the audio cable from the MBP to the audio inputs on the TV would have worked if you had gone to System Preferences -> Sound -> Output and assigned the output there. YMMV

How do I get sound to play on my Samsung HDTV from my macbook pro?
I've been trying to figure out how to get sound to play on my TV from my laptop for several days now and was wondering if anyone had any suggestions for a solution to this. I bought an Mini Display Port to HDMI converter (Kanex Iadapt) off Amazon that is supposed to have audio support. I connected it with the HDMI cable to my TV and changed my display settings to mirror and the picture comes up fine but when I tried to change the output in sound settings to my TV my TV didn't even come up as an option. I went out and bought a Y audio cable figuring my laptop may be older than 2010 and needs an additional cable, plugged the audio cable into the same HDMI outputs in the TV and still no sound. I can't think of anything else!
I have an ancient LG 32" and a Thunderbolt/miniport-HDMI adapter that I bought from monoprice. I go through my Denon receiver through one of the HMDI ports and get sound and video on my TV. This is the one I bought - it carries audio and video and is under $7.
Could be worth a shot...

Can't get sound to play from my mac to Bose system
Can anyone tell me how to get sound to play from the Macbook earphone jack into a Bose system? I have the adapter plugged into the Bose as directed by Bose so it is set up but won't play.

After connecting my Apple TV this morning, I have no sound. It is hooked up to play through my television speakers. Any ideas on how to get sound? Also, I tried hooking it up through my surround receiver, but could not get it to come up on my ty screen, what can I do to correct this problem?
Have you tried adjusting the "Audio Out" and the "Dolby Digital" settings in settings > audio and video? It may be worth trying several combinations of these settings, although typically it is the "Dolby Digital" setting that causes most problems for users.
Also make sure that you have correctly mapped the input port on your sound system to the output, if you are unsure about how to do this, refer to the manual that came with your sound system.
Have you tried playing various content sources (i.e. podcasts, music, iTunes Store video, other video etc), do you have the same problem with all types of content? If you use optical you might also check that you can see a red light at the end of your optical audio cable. Is your optical audio cable plugged straight into your sound system, or does it go through a switch or other device? -

How do I get sound on my TV from mo macbook pro?
Depends on what you want to do, do you want to play music or video?
If you have a Macbook that supports thunderbolt just connect it with a hdmi cable (if you want picture as well). If your mac doesn't support thunderbolt you could connect via the standard headphone jack. But still it depends on what you want to do. So...
What do you want to play... (music, video)?
What does your tv support (hdmi, digital audio (s/pidf?)?
This helps narrowing down your solution. -
I just purchased a new laptop after my old computer broke,im tryna figure out how to get all of my songs from my itunes library on this computer.....any ideas???
Restore from backup if you have one.
You can also transfer stuff from your iPod if you have one:
https://discussions.apple.com/message/11857427#11857427
If you are in the US or Canada you can download purchased music from the Purchased link in the iTunes store.
Otherwise if the disk drive is OK in your Old PC you can remove it and put it in a USB drive enclosure and then use it as an external disk on your new PC, then you copy the muisc from there. -
Can't get sound to play using audio line in
I am trying to play audio from my iPhone by connecting mini plug cable to the headphone jack and the audio line-in mini plug. The input level indicator in System Preferences > Sound is showing that audio is playing but I don't hear sound. I do have sound playing through my Mac Pro with iTunes, steaming audio/video, etc., so I know it works. Any ideas how I can get sound to play audibly using line-in?
Another option not involving any additional software - see:
http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/87046-play-line-in-through-macbook-pro-in ternal-speakers/
Just came across this problem myself (10.8) and that solution works great - just open Quicktime, there under File: choose a "new audio recording". In the upcoming controller switch up the volume.
Weard that it works this way but nowhere else in the sound System Control panels ... -

I have lost sound on my iPad in apps unless I use headphones ,does anyone know how to get sound back without them .I have used the mute volume on the bar at bottom of screen and the slider volume control there only shows when headphones are plugged in !
I also tried resetting settings all to no avail ...I looked up some advice and watched utube video advice on how to fix without success..
The volume control button on side does not work ,I got the iPad last August and wonder if it is a fault that means I must return it for replacement from where it was purchased ?The Retrospect you used way back when is no longer around. The company was sold and that company produced a new version of Retrospect - Retrospect 8.x
So, as you've been told, you would have to be running a Tiger system with an old version of Retrospect software (5.x or 6.x - you would need to know) assuming you can find the software.
As best I can remember you cannot extract files from a Retrospect backup except using the software since Retrospect did not normally make a file by file backup rather it created an archive of the files in the backup. I'm assuming that the EMC/Retrospect people have told you that old Retrospect backups are not accessible by Retrospect 8.x? -

{code}Sure, if you have other data that you haven't mentioned yet, then you need other columns, and maybe even other tables, to store that data.
Talking about this would be a lot easier if you described what you were trying to model in these tables, and what the different entities are.

{code}What do checkseq and checkdate represent? What is the realtionship between them? If there is another row with checkseq=3, will it necessarily have checkdate=01/01/2011? If there is another row with checkdate=01/01/2011, will it necessarily have checkseq=3?
Shouldn't I need to have the extra seq(PK), then use check seq to group the data report to meet users' target format ? Please adviseIt depends on what your entities are. If you explain that, then perhaps I can give some advice about how to model them.
In general, every type of entity requires a separate table. It looks like xcert represents one kind of entity, uniquely identified by certno. I assume there is some other kind of entity, uniquely identified by checkno, and that you have a table for that which you haven't needed to show in this thread.
Are you saying that there's some other entity, that is uniquely identified by checkseq? If so, it probably needs a table of it's own.
Every table should have a primary key. I had assumed that checkseq only served as the primary key of the xcheck table. If it serves some other purpose, then yes, you would need another column.
Many-to-many relationships usually require a separate table. I was guessing that xcheck was intended to record a many-to-many realtionship between xcert and some other table. Guessing is not always the best way to solve problems. I think it would be better if you explained what you want to do, rather than have me guess at it.
So far, what you've shown is analagous to an order entry system. One kind of entity is customer, another is supplier. Say you're running a company that sells products from many suppliers to many customers. There is a many-to-many relationship between customers and suppliers. Any customer may buy from many suppliers; any supllier may sell to many cutomers. You may have an orders table that keeps track of that many-to-many relationship. You may also have another entity, salesman, that also has many-to-many relationships with customers and suppliers. Depending on what exactly you consider an "order", there are lots of different ways to model this. Can a single order involve many customers? Can a single order involve many suppliers? Can a single order involve many salesmen? If an order always involves one customer buying from one supplier using one salesman, then you may only need four tables. If the situation is more complicated, then you may need more tables. -
How to get a pdf document out of a Document form
Hi all,
I have a question of how to get the actual PDF out of a Document Form, when I take the @document value I only get some xml representation of the form, but I need to get the actual PDF.
Thanks in advance
Sincerely
KimThe @document is the way to get the PDF out from the DocumentForm varibale. If you get just the data, it's because the DocumentForm was populated with just the data in the first place.
Make sure you submit PDF from your form and not just the data.

How to get password as string back from encrypted password byte array.
Hi All,
I am storing encrypted password and enc key in the database.(Code included encryptPassword method for encryption and validatePassword method for validating of password). Problem is that for some reason i need to show user's password to the user as a string as he/she entered. But i am not able to convert the encrypted password from D/B to original String.
Tell me if any body know how to get the string password back from the encrypted password byte array after seeing my existing encryption code.
//********* Code
private Vector encryptPassword(byte[] arrPwd)
try
// parameter arrPwd is the password as entered by the user and to be encrypted.
byte[] encPwd = null;
byte[] key = null;
/* Generate a key pair */
KeyPairGenerator keyGen = KeyPairGenerator.getInstance("DSA", "SUN");
SecureRandom random = SecureRandom.getInstance("SHA1PRNG", "SUN");
keyGen.initialize(1024, random);
KeyPair pair = keyGen.generateKeyPair();
PrivateKey priv = pair.getPrivate();
PublicKey pub = pair.getPublic();
/* Create a Signature object and initialize it with the private key */
Signature dsa = Signature.getInstance("SHA1withDSA", "SUN");
dsa.initSign(priv);
/* Update and sign the data */
dsa.update(arrPwd, 0, 12);
/* Now that all the data to be signed has been read in, generate a signature for it */
encPwd = dsa.sign();
/* Now realSig has the signed password*/
key = pub.getEncoded();
Vector vtrPwd = new Vector(2);
vtrPwd.add(encPwd);
vtrPwd.add(key);
return vtrPwd;
catch (Exception e)

Help upto any extent would be appreciated.

Moti SinghHi All,
I am storing encrypted password and enc key in the
database.(Code included encryptPassword method for
encryption and validatePassword method for validating
of password). Problem is that for some reason i need

Tell me if any body know how to get the string
password back from the encrypted password byte array
after seeing my existing encryption code.It is impossible to retrieve the original text out of a signature.
You should read up on some encryption basics in order to understand the difference between signing and encrypting. Then you can find examples of how to encrypt something here: http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4/docs/guide/security/jce/JCERefGuide.html.
Actually there is one class specifically for keeping keys secure, KeyStore http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4/docs/api/java/security/KeyStore.html

How to get the attribute values out?
Hi everyone,
<root>
<category name="Mens Clothing" id="0">
<subcategory>Active/Baselayer Tops</subcategory>
<subcategory>Active/Baselayer
Bottoms</subcategory>
</category>
<category name="Womens Clothing" id="1">
<subcategory>aaa</subcategory>
<subcategory>bbb</subcategory>
</category>
</root>
How to get the attribute values out? For example "Mens
Clothing" and "Womens Clothing".
// the line below returns "Active/Baselayer Tops" and
"Active/Baselayer Bottoms"
var myXml:XML = new XML(event.result);
Thanks,
MayHere is attribute identifier operator from FB Help:
@ attribute identifier Operator
Usage myXML.@attributeName
Identifies attributes of an XML or XMLList object. For
example, myXML.@id identifies attributes named id for the myXML XML
object. You can also use the following syntax to access attributes:
myXML.attribute("id"), myXML["@id"], and myXML.@["id"]. The syntax
myXML.@id is recommended. To return an XMLList object of all
attribute names, use @*. To return an attribute with a name that
matches an ActionScript reserved word, use the attribute() method
instead of the @ operator.
Operands attributeName:* — The name of the attribute.
Example
How to use examples
The first example shows how to use the @ (at sign) operator
to identify an attribute of an element:
var myXML:XML =
<item id = "42">
<catalogName>Presta tube</catalogName>
<price>3.99</price>
</item>;
trace(myXML.@id); // 42The next example returns all attribute
names:
var xml:XML =<example id='123' color='blue'/>
var xml2:XMLList = xml.@*;
trace(xml2 is XMLList); // true
trace(xml2.length()); // 2
for (var i:int = 0; i < xml2.length(); i++)
trace(typeof(xml2
)); // xml
trace(xml2.nodeKind()); // attribute
trace(xml2
.name()); // id and color
} The next example returns an attribute with a name that
matches a reserved word in ActionScript. You cannot use the syntax
xml.@class (since class is a reserved word in ActionScript). You
need to use the syntax xml.attribute("class"):
var xml:XML = <example class='123'/>
trace(xml.attribute("class")); -
How to get the Portal Page name from PLSQL?
Can anyone tell me how to get the portal page name from my dynamic page using plsql?
Apparently you can get the page id and work it out from there, but my calls to get the page id are not returning any values anyway.
My code for attempting to get the page id is below.
<oracle>
declare
v_pageid varchar2(30);
begin
v_pageid := wwpro_api_parameters.get_value('_pageid', '/pls/portal30');
htp.print('Page is '|| v_pageid);
end;
</oracle>
Ideally I'd actually just like to get the page name. Is there a straightforward way to do this?
Thanks in advance!
SarahFew clarifications -
1. wwpro_api_parameters cannot be used to get default portal
page parameters such as '_pageid', '_dad', '_schema' etc.,
2. Page information can be obtained through any components which
are available in that particular page. For example, in case of
dynamic page, we need to publish it as a portlet and add it to the
page. This process creates necessary packages in the DB, but we
will not have access to the portlet methods.
So, I would prefer creating a simple DB provider & portlet and access
page title from its show method as follows -
//Declare local variable l_page_id, l_page_title as varchar2
select page_id into l_page_id from wwpob_portlet_instance$ where
portlet_id = p_portlet_record.portlet_id and
provider_id = p_portlet_record.provider_id;
select name into l_page_title from wwpob_page$ where id=l_page_id;
More information on DB provider can be found at
http://portalstudio.oracle.com/pls/ops/docs/FOLDER/COMMUNITY/PDK/articles/understanding.database.providers.html
Secondly, usage of wwpro_api_parameters.get_value method is
incorrect. This method expects two arguments -
<ul>
<li><b>p_name : </b> The name of the parameter to be returned.</li>
<li><b>p_reference_path : </b> An unique identifier for a portlet instance on the current page.</li>
</ul>
p_reference_path would be something like 99_SNOOP_PORTLET_76535103 and not some type of path as its name suggests.
The following code fragment fetches all parameters available
for a portlet.
Note : Copy this code into 'show' method of your portlet.
//Declare l_names, l_values as owa.vc_arr
* Retreive all of the names of parameters for this portlet
l_names := wwpro_api_parameters.get_names(
p_reference_path=>p_portlet_record.reference_path);
* Retreive all of the values of parameters for this portlet
l_values := wwpro_api_parameters.get_values(p_names=>l_names,
p_reference_path=>p_portlet_record.reference_path);
//Loop through these arrays to get parameter information
htp.p('<center><table BORDER COLS=2 WIDTH="90%" >');
htp.p('<tr ALIGN=LEFT VALIGN=TOP>');
htp.tableData(wwui_api_portlet.portlet_heading('Name',1));
htp.tableData(wwui_api_portlet.portlet_heading('Value',1));
htp.tableRowClose;
if l_names.count = 0 then
htp.p('<tr ALIGN=LEFT VALIGN=TOP>');
htp.p('<td COLSPAN="2">'
||wwui_api_portlet.portlet_text(
'No portlet parameters were passed on the URL.',1)
||'</td>');
htp.tableRowClose;
else
for i in 1..l_names.count loop
htp.p('<tr ALIGN=LEFT VALIGN=TOP>');
htp.tableData(l_names(i));
htp.tableData(l_values(i));
htp.tableRowClose;
end loop;
end if;
htp.p('</table></center>');
Hope it helps...

How to get the byte[] size dynamically from the StreamMessage object
Hi all,
Using JMS, I am receiving the FDF file as StreamMessage from the queue and attaching it to the PDF file which is present in the local system.
For that, I have written the code as follows:
{color:#0000ff} Message msg = jmsTemplate.receive();
if(msg !=null && msg instanceof StreamMessage)
StreamMessage message = (StreamMessage) msg;{color}
{color:#ff6600}//hardcoded the byte array size value
{color}{color:#0000ff} byte[] bytes = new byte[{color:#ff0000}856{color}];
System.out.println("read msg="+message.readBytes(bytes));{color}
{color:#0000ff}PdfReader pdfreader = new PdfReader("D:\\Managing_Workflows_No_Comment.pdf");
PdfStamper stamp = new PdfStamper(pdfreader, new FileOutputStream("D:\\12345.pdf"));
FdfReader fdfreader = new FdfReader(bytes);
stamp.addComments(fdfreader);
{color} {color:#0000ff} stamp.close();
{color}{color:#000000}The above code is working fine except with the hardcoded of {color:#ff0000}byte array{color}{color:#ff0000} size value{color} which is given in {color:#ff0000}RED{color} in color.
Can anybody know, {color:#000000}*how to get the byte[] size dynamically from the StreamMessage*{color} object ?
Any help would be highly beneficial for me !!!!
Thanks and Regards,
Ganesh Kumar{color}When you create your stream message you could add an property to your message, something like streamSize that would contain the number of bytes in your stream message. Then you could get this property from the message before declaring your array.
