How to prevent use of previous JWS version

When I click on a URL that points to a JNLP file in my Internet Explorer Web browser, Java Web Start 1.2 is launched, even though I have installed Java Web Start 1.4.2 after installing Java Web Start 1.2. What is Internet Explorer using to determine which version of Java Web Start to launch?
I know I can control which Web Start version is used via a desktop shortcut, but is there a way to force Internet Explorer to use the latest version of Web Start?
Thanks in advance,
Mike

this can be done (for IE users only) in the web page before launching javaws. see:
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/guide/javaws/developersguide/launch.html#ie, or
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/guide/plugin/developer_guide/version.html
but there is no general solution to cover other browsers.
You could use your jnlp file to insist on Java Web Start 1.5.0 or above by saying:
<jnlp spec="1.5+" codebase=...
but there is no such specification version for 1.4.2
You could start you app by checking for a System property set by javaws 1.4.2 ..., such as
"jnlpx.deployment.user.home" (this should only exist in 1.4.2, to check for later you coulc check: for "deployment.version")

How do I use a previous email address with my printer?

How do I use a previous email address with my printer? I reset my printer and want to use the same email address as before.Thanks

At this time the printer's email address will not be available for for re-use for 6 months. This is a security measure once an email has been disabled. After that time, one can go into their account and then change the customized email address for the printer.

Is iTunes 11.1.5 compatible with Mac OSX 10.6.8? If not how can I restore the previous iTunes version?

Problem: Recently when I open iTunes it doesn't work; the little pinwheel just keeps spinning.
I have tried leaving it on, as suggested by another user, for over 12 hours. I didn't work.
I think the new iTunes version, 11.1.5, is not compatible with the operating system; Mac OSX 10.6.8. If this is so, how can I restore the previous iTunes version?

You need to be updated to iTunes 11.2.2.
You might want to consider running the combo updater over your install to refresh your files.
Combo updater: Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update v.1.1 - 1.09 GB
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1399
After running the combo updater, select Software Updater and update iTunes.
If iTunes fails to open after updating, hold down the Option key when launching iTunes. It will ask you to locate your iTunes Library.
Note: I've seen users with their iTunes Library on an external drive spin like this when the drive was failed to be seen in Disk Utility. Run Repair Drive on the external drive to fix this issue.

Too many web sites that I go to do not work with your latest version. How can I use a previous version? Right now, I have to switch to IE because I do not upgrade it until I absolutely have to.

I have to work with a lot of company web sites that are slow to adopt new browser features and expectations. The end result is that when Firefox updates my browser automatically, I frequently find myself broken, and in some cases, simply denied access, for having an "unsupported" browser or browser version. I would like to be able to open a previous version of Firefox, so that I can access that web site. But it appears that when you update, you remove/replace the previous version(s), and I am forced to use another browser.

I am currently using HP Simple Pass version 6.0, and it had been working like a dream until Firefox recently upgraded to v. 30. Now it doesn't work at all :( The current software won't have anymore updates (last one in 2013), because the omnipresent Apple bought Aunthentec (the company that makes (made) Simple Pass) back in 2012. Dear Firefox, please update whatever you have to to make the 2 compatible again, or I won't be able to use Firefox anymore. :(

As you can't go back, purchase a new device with the old OS on it, transfer your sim and restore it with an old backup that is still the old OS and learn your lesson.
DON'T UPDATE your device.
That only works if there is a previous backup that is using an iOS that is the same or older as the version of the iOS on the device. And if the OP ends up purchasing a device that, say is running iOS 6.0.1, but their backup is using 6.1.3, then they're still stuck with having to upgrade.
It's far easier to simply accept the newer iOS, get used to it, and provide feedback to Apple about what imrovements/changes you'd like to see. Functionally, iOS 7 is better. Aesthetically, well, your mileage may vary.

Sequence file Version number. How to prevent the automatic resetting build version number whilst auto-incrementing revision number?

Hi,
I've got my environment set this way that each save of the sequence file increase the revision part of version number. However, during that increase the build counter is reset to 0. How to prevent it?
TS 4.2

Mimi,
It is pretty common practice in software revisioning to reset a minor number to 0 when a major moves up 1. There are many different schemes out there. If you google or bing software versioning schemes you'll see what I'm talking about.
So looking at it from left to right: Major.Minor.Revision.Build = 0.0.0.1
if you change the Revision it would be expected that anything to the right (in this case Build) would reset to 0. 0.0.1.0!
Let's say your version is 8.34.56.23. It would make sense that if you were to change the Major number (which means a Major release) to 9 then your version would go to: 9.0.0.0.
A version number is just a unique way to tell someone which specific software you are using so it really doesn't matter that it resets to 0. Although it makes sense because if you kept your build number sequential and didn't reset it then it would get outrageously larger which would be more annoying than anything.
Again this is common accepted practice in industry.
Good Luck,

How to prevent upgrade to next major version

What is the standard practice to make sure a JDK or JRE doesn't upgrade beyond the current major version? I suspect the default behavior upgrades to the next major version?
Because of issues with SSL, I need to prevent some deployments from upgrading to JDK1.6.

Note this this does not prevent the user from upgrading their Java, it just ensures that a suitable Java is available for the app. - so the user might end up with multiple versions of Java installed.

How can I use Airport Express (2004 version) ethernet port?

I am using a Time Capsule to access the internet. Now I would like to use my old AE to "root" that internet connection via the ethernet port to my WD HD TV Live (or Notebook w/o wifi).
I know that it is possible with the newer airport express version coz a friend has it setup. But I could not make it work with the AE 2004.
The latest available firmware is 6.5.3 while on the AE 2008 it is 7.5.2
Any suggestions?

dirk2gently, welcome to the discussion area!
Unfortunately, your older version of the AirPort Express does not have the capability to "extend a wireless network", so you'll need to use the 802.11n version of the AirPort Express to do what you want to do.

How can I uninstall a previously installed version of Aperature from another owner?

Hi,
I purcased my iMac from a previous owner. His version of Aperature is still on it - registered under his AppleID. I would like to uninstall it as it is preventing me from using my own version of iPhoto. How can I do this? Would it be asvisable to uninstall it and then purchase a new version of Aperature and then convert my iPhoto library to Aperature? Right now, iPhoto wont launch becuase it wants me to upgrade Aperature, but I don't own a registered copy to my Apple ID, so I can't upgrade it.
My setup is:
iMac 27" 12,2
3.4 GHz Intel Core i7
32GB 1333 MHz DDR3
Graphics AMD Radeon HD 6970M 2048MB
OS X 10.9.2 (13C64)
Aperature 3.2.4
iPhoto 9.5.1
Thank you!

The previous owner of that machine should have wiped it and install the original OS that shipped with the system leaving the system at the point where the new owner takes over and enters all there own information.
Before you go much further with this machine you should seriously consider backing up any new stuff you have done and wiping it and starting from scratch. If you keep the system like it is you will be plagued with problems. Even doing OS updates will prove frustrating.
Right now the best you can do is to move the Aperture that is on the system into the trash, log into the App Store using your ID and buying Aperture. That should work but to be honest I have never had to do it so can;t say for sure.
You might want to look at this What to do before selling or giving away your Mac from Apple to read what they recommend.
good luck

How do I find a previous windows version. It's telling me to copy files and then delete old version.

It has a help column that says, "How do I backup my files from Window.old? When I do what it tells me to do, I can't find it. Could someone please help me? Thanks you.

Hi,
Looks like a new OS has been installed/re-installed. Do you want to keep Windows.old folder for just in case? Otherwise you can delete it using the following instructions:
