  • I am trying to download skype, but it asks to agree to the terms of service. So I go to my email and check the terms fo service, but I don't know where the "agree" button is. Can someone please help me?

    I am trying to download Skype to my ipod (my friend gave me his old ipod touch, which is about 1-2 years old, according to the year 2014) And when I tried to install it, it said that I have to agree to the terms of use. So I go onto my computer and review the terms of use there on my email. I could NOT find the "agree" button. Please, can someone help me?

    The button would be on your iPod version of Skype, not the computer version. They are not the same.

  • Don't know where the error is!!!

    hi again
    i wrote the code for the add button ,, but when i enter the path of the .au(eg a:\piano.au) in the text field and click add it will be added to my database and the .au file will be saved as a long binary data in the db,, when i come to search for it in my application i get in the voice text field something like that 61003A005C007000690061006E006F002E0061007500 not(a:\piano.au), i don't get the path so when i come to play it it will not play i don't know where the problem is ..
    this is the code:
    if(e.getSource()==vadd)
    //User has not populated all the input fields.
    if(vname.getText().equals("")|| vaddress.getText().equals("")|| vphone.getText().equals("")|| vsex.getText().equals("")|| vdob.getText().equals("")|| vtemplate.getText().equals("")|| vvoice.getText().equals(""))

    }//else
    }//else if
    So plzz can some one help..

    The characters you get is just the (reversed) unicode representation of the string you want:
    class Printit{
    // this shows the two representations are equal:
    public static void main(String [] args){
         String tu = "" + '\u0061' + '\u003A' + '\\' /*'\u005C'*/
                           + '\u0070' + '\u0069'
                           + '\u0061' + '\u006E' + '\u006F'
                           + '\u002E'
                           + '\u0061' + '\u0075';
         System.out.println(tu);
    }shows this - well the '\' is only allowed escaped, so I may not use '\005C' directly.
    I suppose the field in DB has a wrong format or you do not read it the right way. The writing seems OK to me.

  • HT3819 how do I share movies/music between my computers. I have opened shared on both computers and both are on, but i am not able to drag anything from one to the other. Does anyone know where the settings button is on the bottom of the itunes screen?

    how do I share movies/music between my computers. I have opened shared on both computers and both are on, but i am not able to drag anything from one to the other. Does anyone know where the settings button is on the bottom of the itunes screen?

    Oops, I forgot a step between 7 and 8 ... before syncing the iPhone I need to explicitly send the document back to iTunes on the iPhone, or the changes won't come over at all ...
    and then one more thing ... Numbers on iOS does NOT recognize a number of key features of the OSX app, such as conditional formatting ... so after editing my document on iOS and syncing it back to OSX on my Mac, all of those settings are lost (no more conditional formatting, have to do it all over again)
    What am I doing wrong ?

  • How do you sync contacts with gmail, not other place on computer? I don't know where the contacts came from on that are now on my new phone. There are way too many and it is not my list of contacts I have on gmail. Where else is this from?

    I don't know where the contacts came from on that are now on my new phone. There are way too many and it is not my list of contacts I have on gmail. Where else is this from? I spent a LONG time on gmail going through my list of contacts. There were about 400 and I got it down to about 90. When I went to sync my new phone, ALL 400 synced.
    Thank you for any help!

    Sorry for the repeat...new here. OBVIOUSLY.

    It is the subclass of a class that has all the methods used here (it wouldn't allow me to add that too as it said it was too many characters, I will post it if need be)
    Thanks in advance!

    It's what we are supposed to use for class.
    I've tried to get a more complete error message because then maybe I could figure out whats wrong but that's all that comes up. and it highlights the last bracket. At first I thought it meant the brackets were off but I've triple checked that and I added an extra one in to try that out too and it changed nothing. I've even tried removing certain chunks of code to see if I could isolate the problem and the same error came up no matter what I did.

  • Can´t do Ichat Video, don´t know where the problems are

    I have an IMac with built in ISIght and I want tu use Ichat Video. I can chat and if I press the button beside my pic, I see a normal moving pic of the cam. If I want to open a videochat, my pic in the new opend window just stopped moving. I can the the other person moving, and we can talk, but I don´t move for the other person.
    If i look at check connection, my rame rate and Bitrate are 0.
    SO what can I do to get it working, I already tried to open the ports, written in the support article. I connect wireless to my router.

    Hi
    Have you set your Quicktime setting, goto sys prefs/quicktime/streaming/streaming speed, set to 1.5mbps(dont use automatic)
    In ichats prefs click on video and change bandwidth limit to NONE.
    Restart iChat.

  • Don't know where two commands go .... Need Help!

    I have three files: ExpressionConverter.java, postfix.java and postfix2.java.
    ExpressionConverter is the base file that sets up the frame which has four fields InfixField (The user types in a math formula like 5*(2+1)), PrefixField (Another file, prefix.java-which I am still tweaking, will review the characters in the InfixField and transform them into a prefix format like *5+21), PostfixField (the postfix.java file will review the InfixField characters and transform them into a postfix format like 21+5*) and ResultField (the postfix2.java file will review the created PostfixField stack and generate the actual formula's result like 15).
    The ExpressionConverter.java file works right now, but it includes a postfix formula that is incorrect (it messes up when parenthesis are used) and the prefix and result fields do not have anything associated with them, so they are blank; however, you can run this program and see the general idea of how I want it to work.
    ****THIS IS WHAT I NEED!*****
    I have been told that the postfix.java file and the postfix2.java file need to have "PostfixField.setText(findPostfix(InfixFieln.getText()));" and "ResultField.setText(calculatePostfix(PostfixFiels.getText()));" placed in my ExpressionConverter.java file for the whole thing to work - minus the Prefix formula. I need to know where they go and how I can delete the postfix formula out of the ExpressionConverter.java file so I can use the formula in postfix.java without causing errors.
    I KEEP RESEARCHING BOOKS AND INTERNET, BUT CAN'T FIGURE IT OUT.
    Here are the codes - with a lot of spaces between them to differentiate them. Thanks for the help!

  • Lost document on my new MAC because I accidentally saved on another account that I had no permission to save to..now I don't know where the doc is but I just know its somewhere on the computer..maybe the temp files or something?!sos! please help me!!

    I saved a document, while logged in as a Guest, to another user account [it was set up for some reason to save like that (I guess the person who used computer last did that) and I didn't check before "saving"] on accident. Of course I didn't have permission to save on the other user's account but I was in a rush and so I figured everything was fine but later I found that there was a message warning me saying it did not save because it couldn't save because I had no permission to save on that account and gave me the option to duplicate or cancel.. I wasn't paying attention so I can't remember which button I hit but clearly it wasn't "duplicate"
    I took hours perfecting this document and now I can't find it.. anywhere!
    Where do these types of things go when this happens.. I know it's somewhere on the computer but where?? SOS I need the doc and I'm hoping I can find it
    I guess it's the same as someone who accidnetly hits "don't save"... question still stands.. please anyone help me!!!
    I'm trying to use Disk Drill but I only found things from November and it seems like it only shows files that have been physically/manually deleted..and my TIME MACHINE WAS NOT SET UP..because we recently got this MAC computer and had no clue what it was
    maybe its in some temp files somewhere..where do not saved documents go.. i know that it is probably writable but I know that is probably still exists
    ANYONE WITH INFO PLEASE PLEASE HELP!!

    tis true
    I know, I always do that but I was in a rush to get somewhere and I was relying on my thousand dollar Mac to do some kind of recovery or something. I know Microsoft always keeps temporary files (I think Mac does too, part of me asking here in this forum was for someone to tell me where I can find those files) and when you go to open Office Works then it gives you the option of opening the last recent documents, saved or not saved.
    I usually copy paste into my emial just in case something goes wrong with the created document but I just didn't have the time to login and do all that My loss, you live and you learn, BUT still if ANYONE got any info on this, PLEASE DO CHIME IN *keeping the hope alive*

  • After having my hard drive replaced, I tried restoring files from time machine. The restore completed but I don't know where the files were restored to. I can see they are taking up space on my hard drive but I can't get at them.

    My hard drive failed and so was replaced, luckily everything was backed up on time machine.
    I tried to do a full restore, and it went through the process but I couldn't see my files anywhere on the HD. I tried again and same thing. Eventually I used Migration Assistant and this worked fine.
    However my hard drive is now full - all my previous restores went somewhere but I can't get at them.
    Can anyone please help, I need to delete them from my system.
    Thanks

    Is the HDD in the 2009 15" MBP dead?  (The original source of your data)  If not, you might want ot take it out and put it in an enclosure.
    You might try spotlight on know files to see if that gives you any clues where your data is located.
    You might down load from the Internet OmniDiskSweeper (free) and open it.  It should show you all of the files you have on your MBP and enable to locate them.
    Ciao.

  • HT204053 I have an iCloud ID on my iPad 2 which is different to my Apple ID.  I don't know where the reset email is going to? It's not recognising my birthdate.  Could be a hacker.  What do I do?

    My iCloud Id is different to my Apple ID on my iPad 2. Trying to make them the same but cannot reset.  Reset goes to my Apple ID gmail.  This password is fine.  Gmail sees both my gmail addresses as belonging to the same person because they do.  One has a . in the name and one doesn't.  They marry up the two addresses.  This is confusing iCloud and Apple ID.  Have tried to access account through security questions but its not recognising my birthdate.  This is weird as no other matching names globally.  Maybe a hacker has taken over the iCloud account ID.  I'm not sure how to resolve.  Help please?

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    If you are unable to remember your password, security questions, don’t have access to your rescue address or are unable to reset your password for whatever reason, your only option is to contact AppleCare (or Apple ID Support), upon speaking to an operator you should explain that your problem is related to your Apple ID, this way you will not be charged for assistance, even if you don’t have an AppleCare plan.
    The operator will take you through some steps you may have already tried, however they need to be sure they have exhausted all usual approaches before trying to reset your account, so you should try to be helpful and show patience with the procedure.
    The operator will need to verify they are speaking to the account holder and may ask you some questions that only the account holder could know, and you will need to answer them if the process is to proceed.
    Once the operator has verified your identity they will send a message through to your device which contains an alpha numeric code, which you will need to read back to them.
    Once this has been completed they will send an email to your iCloud email address after a period of 24 hours, so you should check that mail is enabled in your devices iCloud settings.
    Upon receipt of the email, use the reset link provided to reset your password, after which you should be able to make the adjustments to iCloud that you wish to do.
