I have a subVI that is running in an infinite loop. Which subVI is it?

I have a top level VI that's running and it calls many subVIs. One of those subVIs is stuck in an infinite loop and won't let the top level subVI finish running. Is there and easy way to figure out which subVI is the culprit. The best I can figure is to go into the VI hierarchy and open every front panel until I find the one that has the "running" run arrow.

Greetings,
Even with many sub-vi's using the highlight execution in conjunction with breakpoints should identify your infinity loop pretty easy. If your code is "all over the place" it may take a little bit more time, but if it's done correctly should work like a charm. Just make sure to install breakpoints accordingly (after loops) so you're not waiting for any loops to execute hundreds of times in highlight mode. And if you never reach your breakpoint, well, you know it's in the loop prior to the breakpoint, and can debug from there.You should be able to systematically break it down in no time.
Good Luck.

I run into an infinite loop when I try and use this print method

Hi,
I have the following class. If i run it in stand alone, everything works out great. However, if I call it from a much larger application (which is why I have built this class), I run into an infinite loop. I have no idea why, but I have pinpointed it to the line: tableView.getTableHeader().paint(g2);
Any help is greatly appreciated. I have been tryin to figure this out for a week now, and I havent gotten anywhere. It makes no sense to me, since this works as a standalone application, but if i put a method similar to the main() inside a much larger application, I end up with an inifinite loop.
Thanks again!

Log the parameters passed to my print method?
The only parameter that would be relevant would be the pageNumber, and I can tell you that it continues to loop. Here is an example of the output:

No longer have a system that can run Freehand but have 1000's of old Freehand files. Can I convert them to something CC can open, like AI?

I had a graphic design business for 10 years and at the time found Freehand to be the best solution. Now I'm an InDesign convert but many of the old freehand files I wish I could open and convert to something in CC. I need to rebuild my portfolio and many of those old Freehand files are great works of art. I no longer have a system that will run Freehand, is there something I can run that would convert these files to Illustrator or something usable. I wish adobe would at least make a patch so I can run it on my Mac long enough to get the key files I want. Anyone have any suggestions or am I just screwed and 10 years of art is gone...

Your timing is actually good! This plugin was released this month for doing what you need into Illustrator CC:
Tensai FH>AI Plugins
As to InDesign, I have been using FreeHandMX to export my files to PDF and trying out these two converters:
PDF2DTP | Markzware
PDF to InDesign converter
The Markzware converter seems better and they have been eager to hear from FreeHand users. Where conversion isn't exact is text and takes some tweaking. Also any problems Illustrator had with converting FreeHand files shows up in InDesign.
As for running FreeHand on the latest Macs, virtualization with Parallels and Fusion running Snow Leopard is successful and seamless. Also using WIN versions of FreeHand with CrossWeaver and WINE on Mavericks.

I have a MacBook that is running 10.5.8 and I cannot update it to Snow leopard

I have a MacBook that is running 10.5.8 and meets the tech specs for Snow Lepoard. I am attempting to upgrade to SL using a "Mac OS X Install DVD version 10.6.3". However, when attempting to run the installer from the disc I recieve an error stating "This Mac cannot be upgraded to this version of OS X." No further information is given nor are there any buttons or clicks to recieve additional info. I receive the same error whether I'm running the installer when the Mac is already running or when holding down the C key as the computer starts up.
Does anyone know why this issue is occurring or how to resolve it?
Thanks

Start by checking if you can run Snow Leopard:
Requirements for OS X 10.6 'Snow Leopard'
http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
(NB: PowerPC applications can still be run in Snow Leopard using Rosetta, but they will not work in later versions of OS X.)
The OS 10.6 Snow Leopard install DVD is available for $19.99 from the Apple Store:
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
and in the UK:
http://store.apple.com/uk/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
When you have installed it, run Software Update to download and install the latest updates for Snow Leopard to bring it up to 10.6.8, or download the combo update from here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1399
Check via Software Update whether any further updates are required, particularly to iTunes.
You should now see the App Store icon in iTunes, and you now need to set up your account:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4479
You can now upgrade to Mavericks OS 10.9 for free IF you have one of the following Macs, with not less than 2GB of RAM, and at least 8GB of available space on your hard drive:
iMac (Mid-2007 or later)
MacBook (13-inch Aluminum, Late 2008), (13-inch, Early 2009 or later)
MacBook Pro (13-inch, Mid-2009 or later), (15-inch, Mid/Late 2007 or later), (17-inch, Late 2007 or later)

Lion uses Recovery to reinstall OS X. Press Command and R keys when your Mac starts, open Disk Utility, erase the drive and reinstall Lion. The other Mac has probably got its hard disk damaged, so take the Mac to an Apple Store

A possible cause is security software (firewall,anti-virus) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
Remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

HT201317 I only have one device that can run icloud. How can I bring my photos back to it?

I have one device that can run iCloud. It is my iPad. I backed up all my photos to the cloud, then deleted them off my ipad. I thought they would download
to my Mac and to my iTouch but then I discovered that those two devices are too old to run icloud. Now my photos are gone! Is there any way my ipad can access them again?
Thanks for any help. These photos were of our recent vacation in Ecuador. I hate to lose them forever.
Dorothy

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Photos in photo stream...
You can log into your iCloud account on another computer or device and enable photo stream to see your photos. You should do this as soon as possible because photo stream in the cloud only keeps photos for 30 days and each day you delay, you will lose another days photos.
Photos in the camera roll...
If you kept a back up of your device you can use it to restore to a replacement device, this will restore all of the photos in your camera roll and isn't time limited.

I have an older iPod Touch running iOS 4.2.1 which can no longer be updated. Is there a way to download older versions of apps that will run on this device? I am particularly interested in an older version of Minecraft PE. Thanks!

Is there some way to download older versions of games that will run in an iPod Touch running iOS 4.2.1? I want to give my old device to a child who recently went through a hard time and his device was damaged. It is no use if it only has music on it. Thanks!

To more easily find compatible apps:
iOSSearch - search the iTunes store for compatible apps.
Apple Club - filter apps by iOS version.
Starting when iOS 7 was released, Apple now allows downloading the last compatible version of some apps (iOS 4.2.1 and later only)
App Store: Downloading Older Versions of Apps on iOS - Apple Club
App Store: Install the latest compatible version of an app
You first have to download the non-compatible version on your computer. Then when you try to purchase the version on your iPod you will be offered a compatible version if one exists.

How to cancel a bpm running into an infinite loop

Hi all,
I have a business process in my file to file scenario and I am using a while loop to
process the messages and it is going into infinite loop.
Now I have corrected the problem and when I reprocess it ,it is using the same original condition for it again the infinite loop.
So what I understood is I need to cancel out the previous business process which is running into infinite loop .so can you please help me out how do I stop the message processing (and it is not error status also).i,e the business process before I start the fresh test case.
Thanks in advance,
Vengal.

Hi Vengal,
You can put a condition inside the loop, and whenever that condition will met, it will exit from the loop.
First of all declare one integer (Int_temp) under container operation.
Inside the container operation properties, give the variable name and other info as shown below:
Container Operation
Target -
> Int_temp
Operation -
> Assign
Expression------> Int_temp
Operator -
> +
Experssion -
> '1'
Now inside loop properties you can write the condition as shown below:
Condition -
> (Int_temp ≠ 2) (this is just an example)
The efect of this condition will be on loop till Int_temp is not equal to 2, as soon as it will become 2, it will exit from the loop.
above is one simple example, there can be several methods.
I hope it will help you.
Regards,
Sarvesh

Can anyone figure out why this runs into an infinite loop?

Hi,
I have the following class, and if i run it, I encounter an infinite loop. I have pinpointed the problem and it is because of the lines:
try {
 UIManager.setLookAndFeel(UIManager.getSystemLookAndFeelClassName());
 catch (Exception exp) {
 System.err.println("Failed");
 exp.printStackTrace();
 }Here is the class. Any and all help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

List of subvis that have front panel setup as pop-ups so i can beautify them

Hello,
I am upgrading an old project which has several subvis that pop-up if clicked on something asking for more information or confirmation during the operation by the user.
I want to make them look better and manintain consistent front panels with company logos and apprerance, how can programatically find and list all the subvis that are going to be open as pop-up so i can beautify them,
i dont care about the other subvis in the background that dont open-up.
Thanks

Bill,
One concern with that approach is the possibility of missing a subVI which very rarely pops up. Since the OP appears to be trying to clean up old code, missing something which becomes obvious to the end user only after it was supposedly cleaned up could be embarassing.
Lynn
I was just thinking about places I worked where everything was organized into user libraries and that included dialog boxes. However, even if that was the case, I hadn't considered that there may be subVIs - like maybe running tests - that pop up as needed also.

If I have a program that runs in windows under the command prompt and on Mac in the Terminal window, can it be run in iOS

I have a program that is ran using the command line in windows and the terminal window on Mac or LInux. Is it possible to create an app for the iPad that could run this program. This program does require admin rights.

No.

We have two users that have been using Creative Cloud for almost a year. Recently, sometime in the last 4ish weeks, the users can no longer run Creative Cloud apps. (Yes, our subscription is paid.) Error simply says administrator access is required

We have two users that have been using Creative Cloud for almost a year. Recently, sometime in the last 4ish weeks, the users can no longer run Creative Cloud apps. (Yes, our subscription is paid.) Error simply says administrator access is required to install. The apps have already been installed. The users cannot run them unless they are in the local admin group.Using "Run as admin" does not work. It gives the same error.
I have opened a case with adobe support and was basically told to suck it up and put the users in the admin group. Actually, what was said was that it is "mandated that the users have administrative rights".
There are a couple of things wrong with this. It was working for both users until recently - a recent required creative cloud update. The users have never been local admins yet the apps were working (poorly, but working).
We are in an enterprise environment and users simply do not have administrative rights on the computers.
I have changed permissions on all adobe folders, granting users or authenticated users modify or full control rights, did the same in whatever Adobe registry HKLM keys I could find. Nothing has allowed the users to run the apps - unless they are put in the local admin group.
Someone has to have a fix for this. Adobe apps have proved to have far too many vunerabilities to even entertain the idea of elevating user rights. I can't imagine that enterprise environments are allowing this.
Any help or suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Jeff,
Thank you for your response. The users in question are "standard" domain users. We do not reduce users permissions below the standard level.
The apps do not load with their current standard user permissions.
The thing that makes this odd, is that up until recently they did this issue with cloud apps. The only way I can make it work for them now is to put them in the local administrator group on their pc's - which is not going to happen.
This is what they now see. As I said before, this was not a problem up until recently they would see all their available apps. If I put them in the local admin group the apps are listed without having to install. Everything is there, just not accessible to the user.

I have a 2007 Macbook Pro that is running 10.7.5 and I am trying to use a 10.6.3 DVD to install Snow Leopard to an external hard drive.

I have a 2007 Macbook Pro that is running 10.7.5 and I am trying to use a 10.6.3 DVD to install Snow Leopard to an external hard drive. I've followed every possible instruction on every which website. The problem is when I boot to Install disc, I am unable to choose which hard drive I'd like to install the OS on. It says that it is unable to Install and automatically takes me to Restore and suggests that I restore to Time Machine backups. Any and all help is appreciated.

lovinlife5959,
have you tried booting from the grey Mac OS X Install DVD that originally came in the box with your MacBook Pro? See if you can install its version of Mac OS X (either 10.4.9, 10.4.10, or 10.5.0, depending upon when it shipped from the factory) onto your external hard drive. If that works, boot from your external hard drive, run Software Update on it, and then try updating your external drive to 10.6.3 via the white Snow Leopard DVD.

I have an IMAC that runs OS 10.6.7. I use Netgear for wireless. My computer keeps losing the network, so I can't use wireless.

I have an IMAC that runs OX 10.6.7. I use NEtgear for wireless. I have a laptop and Ipod that I use on the wireless. Recently, my desktop computer shows that it is searching for the wireless system (on the router). I contacted Netgear. They talked me into buying another router and their technical contract. Nothing is working. I can plug my 5200 modem directly up to my desktop , and the network is fine, but the wireless, of course, is not plugged in. When I go to connect the wireless, it doesn't work. This is not a computer program per se, nor is it a router program because sometimes it will work. It seems to me that the computer and router are not working together to hold the settings.
I have attempted to download the latest software for my computer, i.e., Imac graphics fireware. Each time I try, it says that the extensions are not valid for my computer.
Any suggestions?
Thanks, Vicki

Imac graphics fireware.
Did you mean to say firmware? You should only install firmware updates when offered to you via Software Update; other than that, whatever is offered is not appropriate for your model.
As for your Netgear router - I have a Netgear and set it up manually on their web interface setup site (the address should be in your manual). Did you call your ISP so they will recognize that there is a router involved? Sometimes my iMac also does not want to communicate with the router; however, my Macbook and printer have no problem. I solved the problem by connecting things this way:
cable from wall to modem > cable from modem to router > cable from router to iMac. The other things are wireless.

I have a subVI that is running in an infinite loop. Which subVI is it?
