HT5731 Why in the world do I have to CONTINUALLY ENTER MY PASSWORD EVERY 5 (FIVE) SECONDS? I ENTER IT CORRECTLY FROM THE BEGINNING & IT NEVER ACCEPTS IT! What's the problem?

Please assist me with this issue: Ever five seconds the iTunes Store asks for my Password! It continually pops up and after entering the correct password, it begins as though it was going to allow me to purchase an applicaction, song, video, movie, etc., but just pops up again and again, again and again wanting the password! it's irritating as **** that it won't stop...Can ANYBODY HELP ME PLEASE!

I have the problem as well. It is NOT a locked account problem.
The problem is new with the 11.0.3 update and may be related to Mountain Lion (I finally updated).
If I quit iTunes, restart, and enter the password, it recognizes the password and continues. If I do the password reset routine (I have now created FIVE new passwords since the 11.0.3 update!), it accepts the new password. I suspect it's a poor coding practice inside iTunes, aggrevated by the address space randomisation added in Mountain Lion.

Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

My mailing system won't work, and I see many here have had the same problem. so I tried the suggestions I could find. Last thing I tried was deleting my mailing account, so that I could restore it again. Internet is working, everything else is working, plenty of space BUT now my email won't even be restored. Not any of my other mailing accounts either for that matter.
Background information:
I use yahoo (the one I prefer by far), sometimes gmail, hotmail if I absolutely have to
My ipad is ipad 2, 1 year old
problem with the mailing system started less than a month ago
iåproblem was that it wouldnt refresh and find new mails, also took a long time sending mails

You might give VueScan a try. It should work with your scanner. There's a demo version that you can use initially.

I have a MacBook and am running Mac OS X 10.6.8, I thought I couldn't get a virus but a friend recently told me she got one of those stupid link emails from me that I never sent. What can I do?

I have a MacBook and am running Mac OS X 10.6.8, I thought I couldn't get a virus but a friend recently told me she got one of those stupid link emails from me that I never sent. What can I do?

When a virus infects a Windows PC one of the first things it does is mine the PC's e-mail address book. It will then send out e-mails containing itself to addresses in the address book using another address from the address book as the sending address.
The only way you can tell where the e-mail comes from is to look at the long headers. In Mac Mail View>Message>Long Headers.
So it probably wasn't sent from your Mac but from a PC who has both your addresses in his mail .

Why is the problem? String Manipulation. Help Please.

Ok I have two while loops that run with two different String arrays. The problem that I have is that I have a String LeadPI that looks like this: "Dr. Ayusman Sen, Pennsylvania State University".
I would like to separate the String where the first half "Dr. Ayusman Sen" = String investigator; and "Pennsylvania State University" = String institution;
basically separate the string into two separate String variables.
can I do this in 1 while loop, and why is my output not functioning correctly?
Lead PI: Dr. Ayusman Sen, Pennsylvania State University //*** String to manipulate***//
// what the output should look like.
Institution: Pennsylvania State University //*** this should be institution ***//
Investigator: Dr. Ayusman Sen //*** this should be investigator ***//
// This is the current output!
Institution: Dr. Ayusman Sen
Institution: Pennsylvania State University //*** this should be institution ***//
Investigator: Dr. Ayusman Sen //*** this should be investigator. ***//
Investigator: Pennsylvania State University
Investigator: Dr. Ayusman Sen
Investigator: Pennsylvania State University

            int count= 0;
            char separator =',';

               ++count;
               ++index;
               index = LeadPI.indexOf(separator, index);
            while (index != -1);
            String[] insti = new String[count];
            index=0;
            int endIndex = 0;
            for(int i = 0; i < count; i++)
                endIndex = LeadPI.indexOf(separator, index);
                if(endIndex == -1)
                    insti= LeadPI.substring(index);

One of the problems with the String's split method is that it will nto handle the spaces properly. You will still need to trim it.
In the class, below, I have coded for you two methods that will do what you are asking for.
The first method (split) uses the String's split method, but then has to go through and trim down the strings to remove the space after the comma.
The second method, tokenize, does the same thing, but uses a string tokenizer.
Both work - I was just trying to illustrate both methods. The tokenizer method is about three times faster than the split method (in my tests) - but the split method is a little cleaner (IMHO) - but we're talking sub-millisecond differences in one execution.
You would get the name from the [0] index of the returned String array and the institution from the [1] index, like so:
System.out.println( "Name: " + info[ 0 ] );
System.out.println( "Institution: " + info[ 1 ] );There are some issues with this code... if there is a comma in the institution name or the person's name, if messes things up - if, for example, the persons' name is "Paul Leska, Jr." - the routine splits the string in between Leska and Jr.
The same thing happens in the institution name - if, for example, the name of the place is "University of Minnesota, Duluth" - we tokenize or split between Minnesota and Duluth.
You'll either need to (1) watch your data, (2) make these routines smarter or (3) Change your input to already be split (from the source, perhaps).
Here's the code:
import java.util.StringTokenizer;
public class Splitter {
public static String[] split( String s, char c ) {
    String[] chopped = s.split(String.valueOf( c ));
    for( int idx = 0; idx < chopped.length; idx++ ) {
      chopped[ idx ] = chopped[ idx ].trim();
    return chopped;
public static String[] tokenize( String s, char c ) {
    StringTokenizer st = new StringTokenizer( s, String.valueOf( c ) );
    int count = st.countTokens();
    String[] chopped = new String[ count ];
    for( int idx = 0; idx < count; idx++ ) {
      chopped[ idx ] = st.nextToken().trim();
    return chopped;
public static void main( String[] args ) {
    String[] info = tokenize( "Michael A. Riecken, Jumping Mouse Software", ',' );
    for( int idx = 0; idx < info.length; idx++ ) {
      System.out.println( info[idx] );
    info = split( "Michael A. Riecken, Jumping Mouse Software", ',' );
    for( int idx = 0; idx < info.length; idx++ ) {
      System.out.println( info[idx] );
}

Why encounter the problem when i create a table

hi,all
I want to make a news release application,therefore i have to create tables,firstly,i have created a categories table:
just like :
category_id(number)
category_name(varchar2);
secondly,i created the second table which is for storing the news contents,so i created the second table news,just like below:
news_id(number)
category_name(varchar2)----this column is refered from the categories table
news_title(varchar2)
news_content(Blob)
news_editor(varchar2)
release_time(timestamp);
there comes the quetion,when I was creating the second table,an error occured,which said,matching primary key(s) not found.what is the problem ?somebody konws,and does someone have the news board application developing experience ?who can give me a guide ?
best regards
hlee

Hi Hlee,
Have you specify category_name as primary key of the previous table. Then only you can refer the column in the other table.
Thanks and Regards

Why is it that I need to put in my id password every time I want to erase a file on my laptop?

Why am I requested to put my Id password everytime I want to delete a file on my Macbook pro.I think I must have done a change in the setting somewhere. But it was not like that before. Thanks in advance.

Back up all data before proceeding.
This procedure will unlock all your user files (not system files) and reset their ownership, permissions, and access controls to the default. If you've intentionally set special values for those attributes on any of your files, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. Do so only after verifying that those settings didn't cause the problem. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it, but you do need to follow the instructions below.
Step 1
If you have more than one user, and the one in question is not an administrator, then go to Step 2.
Triple-click anywhere in the following line on this page to select it:
sudo find ~ $TMPDIR.. -exec chflags -h nouchg,nouappnd,noschg,nosappnd {} + -exec chown -h $UID {} + -exec chmod +rw {} + -exec chmod -h -N {} + -type d -exec chmod -h +x {} + 2>&-
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Paste into the Terminal window by pressing command-V. I've tested these instructions only with the Safari web browser. If you use another browser, you may have to press the return key after pasting.
You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
The command may take several minutes to run, depending on how many files you have. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign ($) to appear, then quit Terminal.
Step 2 (optional)
Take this step only if you have trouble with Step 1, if you prefer not to take it, or if it doesn't solve the problem.
Start up in Recovery mode. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
Utilities ▹ Terminal
from the menu bar. A Terminal window will open. In that window, type this:
resetp
Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
resetpassword
Press return. A Reset Password window will open. You’re not going to reset a password.
Select your startup volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected.
Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button.
Select
 ▹ Restart
from the menu bar.

HT204053 Do I always have to put in my password every time I purchase/download an app?

I only have the 1 iOS, the new iPad. I don't use or sync other devices. Can I somehow disable that so I don't have to write in my pw EVERY time I download something new!? It's kind of annoying. Lol I'm using the same device every time, it should remember me! Thanks for help.

Not sure exactly how long it is, but yes you get a period of time before you need to re-enter your password. So far as the security questions are concerned, Start here, change your country if necessary and go to Password and security.

HT5731 why are the episodes of the season passes I bought not downloading, even though I have recieved the notification mail telling me that they are available?

the episodes of the season passes are not downloading, when i try to download it from the link sent to me in the notificaition mail, the message "Unable to Process Your Request" appears.
thanks for your help
George

Apologies if this is an off-target question, but had you bought the HD season originally or just the SD version?
The reason I ask is that I have had similiar difficulties with the autodown load and when I check for available downloads on season passes, it says all downloaded.
Then, when I go to the store and search for the season, it first brings up the HD season indicating I would need to make a new purchase, but if I select on SD, there are my purchases and I can freely (and manually) download the latest episode without new cost.
Needless to say, neither of us should have to go looking. Here is the iTunes technical support email: <[email protected]>. I encourage you to email them. I have already done so but I think it helps for anyone with this problem to also do so, so that they will realize it is a wider spread issue and not a human error by a single user.
