I have a file with the (.rar) extn.  how do I unzip this file.

Rar is not zip so you need a unrar utility to expand it.  The one above is one example of many.  If you follow that link you will see a "Related Software" section on that page that lists a bunch more.
FWIW, my current favorite is UnRarX.
There's also the unrar cammand if you need to do it from the terminal (or script).

    Under the answer you want to mark as correct you should see a box that says Correct with a green symbol to the left and a box with Helpful with an orange star to the left. Click on the one you want.
    And thanks for thinking about that, it is appreciated.

  • When I try to access GameCenter on my Mac it says "The requested operation could not be completed due to an error communicating with the server." How can I fix this?

    When I try to access GameCenter on my Mac it says "The requested operation could not be completed due to an error communicating with the server." How can I fix this?

    This usually caused by a customised hosts file.
    These need to be the only entries in your /etc/hosts file:-
    # Host Database
    # localhost is used to configure the loopback interface
    # when the system is booting.  Do not change this entry.
    127.0.0.1       localhost
    255.255.255.255 broadcasthost
    ::1             localhost
    fe80::1%lo0     localhost
    Remove anything below these entries, then try and reconnect with GC. Once GC starts properly you can put the extra entries back in your hosts file, GC should start normally afterwards.

  • The circuit of my macbook is dead yet the hard drive is fine.  I need to access a file from the hard drive, how can i do this? is there a cable i can connect to another mac that will let me transfer the file?

    There is another option if the Macbook will start up in Target Disk Mode.
    Restart the computer while holding down the T key. If you see the firewire symbol moving around on the screen you can connect this one to another one in TDM. You will need a suitable cable to connect the two Macs.

    Take it back where you got and and get your money back.
    As has been pointed out, if there was a "previous owner", the phone is not "new". Thephone you purchased is most likely stolen. If whoever you bought it from won't give you your money back, turn it over to the police.

  • Static Files with same name. How does apex determine which files to serve?

    Hello, I'm using apex 4.2.1.00.08 and I cannot figure out how apex manages the static files and cannot find any help in the docs (other that some high level UI description).
    The application is serving some file and I cannot find which one it is in any easy way.
    I have a workspace where there are several files that have the same name, and I cannot understand how apex figures out which one to serve, and also don't understand what is value of associating a file with an application.
    There are files associated with application 0, which don't appear to show up in the "shared components", but can be seen as
    SELECT *
    FROM wwv_flow_files
    WHERE flow_id = 0;
    and can apparently only be deleted using "SQL Commands" inside apex.
    the URL called is something like
    wwv_flow_file_mgr.get_file?p_security_group_id=13498126233076320&p_fname=myfile.css
    so apparently the only parameters that matter are the workspace and the file name. The associated application is irrelevant.
    apparently files linked to flow_id 0 have precedence over all the other files ...
    Thanks for clearing up a bit of "fog" on this issue.

    I have a workspace where there are several files that have the same name, and I cannot understand how apex figures out which one to serve, and also don't understand what is value of associating a file with an application.Static files can be uploaded to apex with optionally associating with an application within that workspace.
    Files associated with an application are referenced using *#APP_IMAGES#*
    Files not associated with an application are referenced using *#WORKSPACE_IMAGES#*I referenced with #WORKSPACE_IMAGES#, but now I see that if I use #APP_IMAGES# the URL generated will also contain the application ID. This would help to discriminate between different files with the same name but linked to different applications ...
    There are files associated with application 0, which don't appear to show up in the "shared components", but can be seen asWhy are you particularly interested in application 0?Because somehow APEX puts the files that I uploaded there ... they can be seen selecting from wwv_flow_files. Do they take precedence over all other files with the same name?
    Filename is unique for the given workspace[and application]I disagree. I have multiple files with the same name ... the root of this problem ...
    so apparently the only parameters that matter are the workspace and the file name. The associated application is irrelevant.How is your static file referenced??
    But not always, try associating an static file with and application and reference it using #APP_IMAGES# instead of #WORKSPACE_IMAGES#

    Thanks, but the documentation doesn't give much details ... apparently files referenced with #WORKSPACE_IMAGES# can still resolve to files linked to specific applications ... I would like to understand the actual workflow for the various cases (file references with APP_IMAGES, referenced with WORKSPACE_IMAGES, file associated with the application, with another application, with no application, with application "0" ...).
    Also, I find it somewhat misleading that you can have files associate with applications that don't exist anymore (e.g. have been deleted).

  • I have a problem with the Rar archive.

    Archive is either in unknown format or damaged. How can I restore it?

    Recovery Toolbox RAR differs from other software in is that it is extremely easy to use. The interface of the RAR recover tool is implemented as a step-by-step wizard. You have to perform
    only one operation in each step of this wizard. To recover information from a
    corrupted RAR archive, the file recovery .rar tool it is enough to make literally several mouse clicks altogether. Thus, any computer users can use software, including those who have just started working with
    a PC.

  • My Macbook pro 13 inch is stuck on a gray screen with the apple logo, how do I fix this?

    Sooo, I was using my laptop for a while and the charger was kind of broken, it was dip in and out, and slowly I got a "Service Battery" notification. I updated my system and now everytime I try to boot up my computer it'd show a gray screen with the apple logo and a loading bar with a circular loading icon but it never actually boots up. It stays stuck at that loading screen. I don't think it's because I uploaded my system that it happened, but I'm wondering if it's because I didn't change my charger/battery, and I'm wondering if I have to get the harddrive changed or is there a way for me to recover my files and whatnot without having to whip it. Please help, and thanks in advice to any help offered.

    Dwaniej,
    you can try this: boot your MacBook Pro into Recovery mode by holding down a Command key and the R key as it starts up. Once the  OS X Utilities menu appears, select Disk Utility. On the left-hand side of the Disk Utility window, select your internal disk’s boot partition (typically called “Macintosh HD”). On the right-hand side, press the Verify Disk button if it’s not greyed out; if it is greyed out, or if it reports that errors were found, press the Repair Disk button. Once the verification/repair is completed, exit Disk Utility and select Restart from the Apple menu to restart in normal mode. Does it get past the grey screen now?
