I Am New To The Andriod Bionic With A Question About The Texting Interface
I fracking HATE the texting interface. Ima used to the Incredible. I liked being able to look at past conversations with out having to go to an entirely different program. I liked seeing the last conversation i had with a friend on my home screen. I looked at the options and there is no option for that. I think it's kinda stupid that once a conversation is viewed it disappears, and while I realize it's in the message box I find it annoying to see that stupid little message of "no unviewed messages" on my screen.
Is there a way to make it so that my messages are still viewable on my home screen? Is there an app or a viewer that I just am not aware of?
Any help would be appreciated. I like my new phone, now that it's working, I just wish it would let me see my texts on the home screen.
ps, is it showing my real name... cause I really don't want my real name out there

He said - Certain Firefox problems can be solved by performing a Clean reinstall. This means you remove Firefox program files and then reinstall Firefox.
I want to know - Will I still have my bookmarks, history, addons, plugins, etc.? I do not know what plugins and such that I had. What about my pinned tabs and my tabs that where open.
More information - When I try to start Firefox I keep getting the message that I need to restart my computer in order to complete a previous update attempt. I had Sweetpacks on my PC and I do not know where it came from, it took over my home page in Internet Explorer and Ithink caused the issue with Firefox.
Should I do the clean install or try starting Firefox now.Could you please stay in the thread where you posted the question and reply there instead of opening a new thread?

You won't lose bookmarks and other data in the Firefox profile folder as long as you do not remove personal data in case you uninstall Firefox.

You can open the Properties of the Firefox desktop shortcut via the right-click context menu and check the "Compatibility" tab.<br />
Make sure that all items are deselected in the "Compatibility" tab of the Properties window. -
Good afternoon! I addressed in the AT&T company with a question about untying of a sim card of AT&T from my iPhone, all of them made Iphone now is unlocked, I executed all points which were written:
To complete the unlock, simply
1 . Open iTunes on your Mac or PC and verify that you have Internet connectivity.
2 . Ensure a SIM card is inserted into your iPhone.
3 . Connect your iPhone using the dock connector to USB cable that came with your iPhone.
4 . Backup and restore your iPhone using iTunes. For information on backup and restore, please visit http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414.

Noob with a question about overclocking.
Good Afternoon,
I just picked up an MSI A6000-029US laptop and am looking to overclock it to get a bit more from the processor. For reference, hardware follows:
Chipset: NVIDIA MCP79MVL
Processor: Intel C2D T6600 2.2GHz; FSB 800MHz
GPU: GeForce 8200M G
RAM: 2x 2gb 800 MHz Samsung PC2-6400 DDR2
I have installed the 64-bit Windows 7 upgrade and checked out an overclocking guide on slickdeals.net, but could not use the tutorial as I am missing a couple of drivers that did not transfer when I changed the OS to 64-bit. (SMB/SMU memory driver being one of them)
I am new to overclocking and working with the BIOS, etc., so any advice is appreciated.
Cheers,

I'd be surprised if you find any overclocking related setting in your bios. Make no mistake laptops can be overclocked but tools for that aren't widely available. You may reach for modded BIOS versions if the lappy if popular enough, but looking at the specs I'd wouldn't say so, so my guess is that you'll fail to find any modified BIOS revisions.
On the other hand, you may very well succeed with tools like setFSB which has the biggest number of supported PLL's - clock generators among any software of that kind.
Oh, and since you're using a nVidia based chipset, you may check out the nVidia control panel, if you're lucky it may allow for some O/C.

IPOD TO MY SON. IT WAS FILLED WITH 3600 SONGS AND I STILL HAVE THOSE SONGS IN MY ITUNES LIBRARY. MY QUESTION IS CAN I BUY A NEW IPOD AND LOAD IT ON COMPUTER USING MY ITUNES LIBRARY--I MEAN WILL ITUNES AND MY COMPUTER RECOGNIZE THE NEW ONE. IF NOT, WHAT CAN I DO? JEFF
You should be fine, just make sure the new one has the current firmware, dock it to the computer, & away you go.

Potential new T61 user with some questions about product/support/etc.
Hi all!
I've been using Dell Latitude's for last 7+ years and been happy with them thus far, as I was able to stay within the C-series thru 3 systems and reuse some components such as batteries, CD-ROM, etc. but now that I'd have to go to D-series, that gives me the choice of going to new vendor...and IBM/Lenovo was the only other choice due to my OS requirement: XP Pro!
So now I'm here asking some questions that I'm still having issues with:
(I'm comparing the T61 to Dell D530 and/or my C610)
1) Features that I've used on existing Dell that I don't see on T61 :
a) Infared port --- I've used to transfer stuff from one sys to another
b) S-Video out --- I've used to display on TV for some situations
c) Serial port --- can't recall using it but with my luck, I'd need it sometime.
d) Parallel port (C610) --- for my really old printer used on rare occasions
e) Floppy drive --- yes, I still use it for some unusual situations
2) On Dell, I can put a 2nd battery or floppy drive in the media bay instead of CD/DVD...what about T61?
3) Support:
a) Dell forums have 7+ yrs of history and are well used...this forum seems brand new...was there another one before it?
b) My Dell's have lifetime tech support (ok, so sometimes understanding the folks from India can be an issue) but IBM seems to limit this to life of warranty.
4) Pricing: T61 would be seem to be, at minimum, about $150 more than similar Dell even with current "sales"...I'm having trouble justifying this...
5) Things that I see that T61 has that new Dell D530 doesn't:
a) built-in mike --- my current Dell has it and I use it now and then so this is a plus!
b) keyboard light --- nice feature, but couldn't I use a USB one instead if I really needed it?
c) fingerprint reader --- never used one...how often do people use it?
d) 2nd card slot for Express cards --- current Dell has two standard slots and I'm using both, though one is wi-fi which C610 didn't have built-in...and other is modem to replace failed built-in...D530 has only one slot, so having 2nd of any type is good.
e) middle mouse button --- is that what I'm seeing? Or is it something else?
f) recovery partition --- ok, nice but how much room does it take?
6) Things that D530 has that T61 doesn't:
a) 4th USB --- I'm used to only 1 now so even 3 would be big step up...
b) 15" standard screen --- T61 is only a 14.1" screen and that extra bit of size would likely help, but I'm limited on physical dimensions to 13.5" total width (unusual situation) so a 15.4" wide screen isn't possible...I'm looking at SXGA+ in either case to maximize usage.
c) recovery CD is standard --- so I'm presuming I'd have to create my own here?
That, I think, about does it...so...any users willing to help me decide if a switch is good for me?
Thanks!!!
Update: It seems that phone tech support is only available for warranty period with IBM, whereas with Dell, I can still call for hardware tech help (to diagnose problem at least) for "lifetime" or well past paid period, as I've already done in past...comments?
Update #2: Changed the incorrect "R"s to "T"! Duh!
Message Edited by J_Hallgren on 12-28-2007 07:50 PM
A current Dell Latitute user who was looking to maybe switch...But didn't.I finally made the switch to Lenovo and the Thinkpad line of notebooks and think this was the best move I have ever made in years! I've spent far too much money maintaining a separate notebook (Dell Latitude L400) several custom built desktops. This December, I sold my desktops, my laptops (I had 2 L400's), and my 20" Aquous LCD TV to finance my Thinkpad T61. It was well worth it! I will try to answer your questions in this checklist, which I found to be quite similar to my own .... frighteningly exactly like my own....:
Hardware Requirements
IR: This is pretty outdated but functional. I used to use a Palm with IR as well as an IR laser printer. I ditched both for a PDA phone with bluetooth. The laser printer is networked now
S-Video: You might be able to get away with a TV tuner cardbus or a expres card. There might also be external converters that convert from your VGA/DVI (DVI via port replicator) into any variety of video outputs.
Serial: My older Palm had a serial port for the docking station - bluetooth is a good replacement
Parallel port: I currently have a USB to parallel adapter in my bag just in case. These are cheap cables and work well.
Floppy: I keep a USB one of these just in case. I find that having fewer input devices on my laptop and leaving them external help keep the machine lighter for my mostly mobile usage (e.g., my L400 with no inputs at all except 1 USB port).
T61 Spare Battery: Uses ultrabay battery - I rarely use the DVDRW drive and leave the ultrabay battery in there while on the go. DVDRW drive stays in the bag until needed. I recommend you upgrade to the 9 cell battery with the advanced ultra bay battery, which will give u something like 9 to 12 hours of operating life. If you are not a fan of the battery pack sticking out like crazy, stick to the letter box format laptop (not widescreen), which will provide the minimum amount of battery pack stick-out with the 9 cell battery. The 6 cell will not stick out with the letterbox laptop but will stick out with the widescreen version.
Support Options: I rarely call support so I have no opinion here.
Pricing: Price was not really a concern for me. I purchased mine for the business look mainly, which Lenovo maintained well. I don't like the shiny/plastic/toy look of Dell and Apple computers these days. If anything, consider the premium an investment in the build quality of these machines (or a premium just for the good looks). I particularly like the roll cage as well as active protection system that stops the hard drive as soon as the system detects excessive motion.
Included Hardware Comparison:
I like the mic, use it often for Skype and the built in 1.3MP webcam as well.
Keyboard light.... kinda cute but not as functional because it simply is too small. It was a cute idea that could have been made better had Lenovo opted for a backlit keyboard instead. That would have been more functional and added to the "cool" factor.
With regards to the Express Card and PCMCIA card slot, I rarely use either because everything is built in. However, if you want that TV tuner, an express card or PCMCIA card slot is good. If you opt for the built in media reader, you will be unable to use the express card as the media reader takes up that slot (I might be wrong, but I think the card reader is large enough that it takes up both slots, so u can't add anything anyway - but you should call pre-sales to answer that question).
Middle mouse button: The three buttons in the middle are used for the trackpoint/joystick mouse controller. I think the middle button is configurable to do various things. I personally hate the joystick and can only use the touchpad. The lack of a touchpad was the only reason I did not stick to the smaller 12.1" X line of laptops, which was really more in tune with my size requirements (too used to using the L400 sized machine).
Recovery Partition: This is a cheap way for manufacturers to make it easy for people to recover their systems in case of crash - without the need for any documentation or disc media. However, it makes it hard for people like me who only use machines after a clean format and customized install of Windows. This partition is about 10GB and can be erased with special disk format or partition tools. Windows itself cannot read or delete this partition. With the minimum size of the hard drives available, this should not be an excessive space killer for most people. I personally need only 7GB total for OS and apps. The remaining data I work with is actually streamed from a 500GB gigabit NAS. I might switch to a 32GB solid state disk one of these days when their performance comes more in par or exceeds traditional drives.
Recovery CD: You can create your own from the recovery partition since Lenovo does not provide any.
4th USB: I only use 1 or 2 as well. 1 for an external micro mouse (I love my touchpad, but it's just hard to use with Photoshop or CAD apps) and a second for a USB memory key. My other devices i.e., scanner, external mouse, keyboard, are plugged in on my desktop through a USB hub that goes to a single port on my docking station. So yes, your docking station will probably remove the need for more than 2 ports. Although, I do find it odd there are only 3 ports... such an odd number.
Screen Size: I personally wish I could have gotten the X series of laptops but the 14.1 was the only other mobile solution. For the larger screen size, docking station to my 24" Dell 2405FP. The compact nature of the T series makes it pretty thin and compact though... it was not too much bigger than my L400 - at least, not uncomfortably bigger.
But yeah, I think if you make the switch, you'll be getting yourself a solid machine that will keep u going for years. The Latitude line of Dell's were really good, but overall, I feel that the nature of Dell's manufacturing process is making it too "cookie cutter" and reducing its overall quality level. Their earlier lines were awesome, like the D lines you mentioned. But unless you get the ATG line, you just won't get the same level of quality they used to offer (in addition, the ATG line is wickedly too expensive - I'd rather get a Durabook for military grade spec at a fraction of the price).
Anyway, have fun shopping! :-)
And moderators or employees of Lenovo, don't you guys get referral bonuses for giving your employee discount code to friends and family? *wink*

New MBP owner with a question about OS disks.
Just got a new mac book pro, I didn't get the OS disks in the box with the computer. Did I get short changed? A lot of the what I've read, there seems to be a need to use the OS disks, specially when partitioning the drive.
Is it normal for the Macs to come without OS disks in the package or am I missing them?
ThanksJust got a new MacBook Pro. I didn't get the OS disks in the box with the computer. Did I get short changed?
Yes. Where did you buy it?

New Member but with a question about my Predator and erecovery disks
So far I have tried several routes to recover my Predator AG-3620 desktop and so far it's been a "fail"each time. Originally tried to go with the recovery from the USB (will not accept USB for some odd reason),then decided, okay, let's get the erecovery disks from Acer (system specific) and they arrive scratched. Nogo there,...Acer sends a second good set and I go about the recovery steps and get a "Install incomplete. Windowsfailed to fully,..." Sooo, figure okay MAYBE, just maybe, it's the HDD,...go get a NEW HDD, and attempt anotherrun of restore,...again, no go. By this time I am really flustered,...(I've done recoveries on other systems, noproblem) SO I come up on Acer community in the Predator (Gamers) area and get a few good Ideas,...but nonehelp as I still have a dead (in my mind, you can't use it, it's dead) desktop that is a FANTASTIC system,...butnow I am having to resort to using the wife's laptop to look for ANY way I can get my system back up andrunning. I have checked cables, memory, and even gone the Ubutu route and Microsoft sys software down loadjust to get to Windows so I can get that puppy up and going again. ANY help is appreciated at this point and I mean ANY!!! Please save me from this Compac Celeron Laptop I amhaving to deal with in the meantime!!!
Hiya!
It would only use data when either you initiate the data (either connecting to the browser or other apps, or manually poll your email) or when your device pulls the email.
Now there are many variables to how much data is used, but in my travels of the interwebs, I have come across This data calculator which should help a bit. I'm with Rogers and don't use that carrier, but the tool works nonetheless.
Hope that helps

problem new browser
Starting Firefox in Safe Mode does indeed get rid of the behavior I find undesirable. Thank you.
However, I still wonder why one should have to go through the extra step (starting in Safe Mode) to avoid the second tab in the newly opened window.
I have not added any add-ons to Firefox on my PC.
The problem suddenly started occurring a while back, after an automatic update of Firefox to the latest version.
Any thoughts on WHY this is happening? -

You need to reset your AppleID to the old AppleID, delete the iCloud account then you can change the AppleID back to your new account and re-add the cloud account.
See this -> iOS 7: If you're asked for the password to your previous Apple ID when signing out of iCloud -
Any news when the text bubble text will change.
Hey friends, I know this was a highly question when ios7 was released. But by now did not know if any further info is avail. I've been a iphone user since 2008 loved the ios6 functions. Over the years my eyesight is not as good as it used to be. Since ios7 came out with the with the white text in the blue or green bubble its been extremly hard to read even larged with bold. I've read reviews dating back to sept on this issue. As of right now Ive had to switch phones and os to the other guys where I can download 3rd party text apps to read my messages. Does anyome know if any changes are coming up so I can switch back to the iphone. Wanting to upgrade to the 5s. Thanks for any info.
Anything related to any changes in the OS would be announced at the official Apple events. Everything else is just speculation, and speculation is not allowed on this forum.

Help me with some question about Worker/Service/Task in JavaFx 2
I have read some articles in the forum adout mutithreading in JavaFx2, and now I know if I want to do some long-run jobs, i should use Service/Task.
But my application needs a function like this:
1. here is a long-run job(something like getting data from database or other resources);
2. If I clicked a button, then the job started and get the data.
3. When the job is done, I show the data in the tableview of my JavaFx application.
4. then the job waiting some random time(such as 100 seconds).
5. then the job started again automaticlly.
so, the steps are 2->3->4->5->3->4->5->3->4->5->........
so, the important things is that the job runs many times automaticlly.
I know I should implements the job as a Service or Task in javaFx, But where should I put my "while(true){ job.start();sleep(random_time);}" loop code to make the job start automaticlly after some random sleep time.
I wonder what is the best practice for this use case.
My english is poor, but i hope you can understand what i'm dealing with.
Thank you very much!
Edited by: user9529194 on 2011-12-18 下午8:20Hi,
Based on the response from John,
I think you can acheive the functionality as below.
// Creating the tableview.
TableView<Person> personTable = new TableView<Person>()
// Instantiating the personlist.
ObservableList<Person> persons = FXCollections.observableArrayList();
// Setting the list to the table.
personTable .setItems(persons)
final Button button = new Button("Refresh");
final Timeline repeatTimeLine = new Timeline(
new KeyFrame(Duration.seconds(100), new EventHandler<ActionEvent>() {
@Override
public void handle(ActionEvent event) {
// Call the service method to update the list.
PersonService.updatepersons(persons );
button.setOnAction(new EventHandler<ActionEvent>() {
@Override
public void handle(ActionEvent arg0) {
repeatTimeLine.setCycleCount(Timeline.INDEFINITE);
repeatTimeLine.play();
});And in the Service class...
public void updatepersons(final ObservableList<Person> persons){
final Task<List<Person>> getPersonTask = new Task<List<Person>>() {
@Override
protected List<Person> call() throws Exception {
return getPersonService().getPersons();
getPersonTask .stateProperty().addListener(new ChangeListener<State>() {
@Override
public void changed(ObservableValue<? extends State> arg0, State arg1, State newState) {
switch (newState) {
case SUCCEEDED:
persons.clear();
persons.addAll(getPersonTask .getValue());
break;
case FAILED:
break;
ThreadManager.getInstance().schedule(this.getClass(), getPersonTask );
}I hope this code can give you some idea.
Happy Coding !! :) -

I am a Tiger user, with a question about Leopard's smart folders!
Hello!
I starting toying with smart folders under Tiger. It is my understanding that smart folders under Leopard have some different/improved features.
What I was wondering is, is there a way to EXCLUDE a certain string of alpha-numerics as a refining search parameter? I am looking to better sift through Logic Pro projects and it would be amazing if I could weed out any project that had ".0" in the project name (to weed out the backup projects while still finding showing the core Logic projects).
It would be very helpful to know if this is possible before I finally make the plunge into Leopard. Also, knowing might dictate how I am overhauling the organization of my files right now, at this time. Thanks!wow that is weird. Because I know that in tiger, you can check box as many folders as you like to be included in the search. In leopard, i guess they want you to have one smart folder for every folder you want to search the contents of?
Hopefully, people can get around that by just consolidating some of the folders (putting folders within folders) that they wanted to search through one smart folder.
But anyway, that is great news about the option to EXCLUDE! Tiger's is definitely missing that. I searched for Name Extensions that are ".logic", but that also gets me tons and tons of project backups. Those backups all have a number, such as ".01" or ".02" interjected before the ".logic" extension. Excluding ".0" would hopefully not include a file such as this one "mysong.01.logic"
Thanks for your help! I will look forward to this working in Leopard! -
New to smartphones and i have a question about data usage...
i bought my wife a droid 2, we are both new to these phones, ( i still have my ENVY3), but my question is, since she doesnt spend too much time on the web i got her the $15 data package, as i was told it should be enough for most people that are occasional web surfers. my question is though, if she has logged on facebook, since its constanly running and updating, would that mean its constantly using data?
thanks folks for any helpYes, anything that updates will use data. This can be turned off when not in use (menu> settings> wireless & networks> mobile networks, uncheck mobile data) or place the power control widget on your homescreen and it can be toggled from there.
