What's a compilation? I notice that on my iTunes ...

A compilation is just that: a compilation of songs and not a "regular" album.
An example would be the "Now That's What I call Music".
If it is not marked as a compilation, all the individual artists shows up under the Artist section.
Marked as a compilation, the album will show up under Artist -> Compilations by album name.

Sorry this is way off topic...NYC Petition, please have a look

I know this is WAY off topic for this forum, but this is the only forum I follow and contribute to. And since we will ALL be affected by this at some point or another if we visit NYC I think it is worth all of our attention.
Here is the text from the email I got from the APA...(link at bottom)
The Mayor's office in New York City is seeking to instate a new rule that would require permits and proof of insurance for any group of 2 or more persons using a camera in a public area. The regulations would require that anyone using a tripod or shooting in one location for more than 30 minutes (including set-up and break down time) must obtain permits and show proof of insurance of at least 1 million dollars per occurrence. Read more about the new rules here: http://www.nyc.gov/html/film/html/news/080107_proposed_permit_rules.shtml
We all need to act now to fight these proposed regulations which will place absurd restrictions on the freedom to photograph in New York City's public spaces.
This affects not only professional photographers but the First Amendment rights of anyone with a camera to spontaneously document what happens on the streets of this city.
Due to pressure from advocacy groups, the Mayor's Office has agreed to extend the period that it will allow public commentary until August 3rd.
Picture New York has initiated an online petition opposing the new rules, which over 12,000 indidivuals have signed so far. The petition is closing on August 3rd. Please take a moment to sign if you have not already done so.
Here is the link to sign the petition:

you have to be careful with your variables:
the declared variables inside the actionlistener(s) are not these in your main class!!
what you might do:
a) let your main-class implement ActionListener
public class MainClass extends PARENTCLASS implements ActionListener {
   public static void actionPerformed(ActionEvent ae) {
}b) create your own event handler
public class MainClass extends PARENTCLASS {
   public MainClass() {
      insert.addActionListener(new YourActionListener(this));
public class YourActionListener extends ActionListener {
   private MainClass main;
   public YourActionListener(MainClass parent) {
      main = parent;
   public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent ae) {
      main.year = "abc";
      main.id = "id";
      // or implement setXXX methods -> main.setYear("abc"); main.setId("id"); ...
}hope it helps...

WebAssist Cart help? I know it's off topic but... Could really use some help...

I've got a shopping cart that is working and I'm trying to update the
quantities in inventory by subtracting the quantity ordered from the total
inventory in a table called ITEMS.
I can update a record after a sale in the cart, but right now it is
updating by completely replacing the value of the items in inventory with
the quantity in the checkout cart. So, if there are 800 items, after the
update, there are -1 total in inventory, not 799.
The problem is that I don't know how to coordinate the item(s) in the stored
shopping cart with a call to their ID and quantity in the online database.
Here's what I have so far:

Ahhhhhhhh Jeff... If I can get this going... I spent days looking for this solution. Thank you very much. Just bought Dreamweaver CS3 and am battling through the bells and whistles.

Sort of off topic, but same old question looking for a new answer

Ok I'm ready to start a new site. I'm going cheap as it's all coming out of my pocket including hosting. I want to put a video chat room on my site. Is there anyway to capture a webcam in this fashion in director. I've done tons of searching but I can't really find anything. I'm trying to avoid using the flash communication server for three reasons. 1) I already have the director multiuser server that will host up to 1000 users (the room will never be anything close to that big 50 peeps tops) and my web host will support it and install it for me. 2) I can't find anything at a really cheap price. I'm looking at 25 cam users at once... 3) Actionscript is nothing I've every really worked with before, but I could do the lingo programming.
I have a few questions First of all I read something about putting a flash element on the stage, and that the flash player is what captures the webcam. But I assume that it still needs flash communication sever to upload the video. Is this correct?
Is there an xtra that will do what I want?
I read something about encoding the video to realvideo, but I have no clue how as I've never done anything like that before. Will this work and do you know of a tutorial for this?
Do you know of a really really cheap flash comm host?
Really off topic but, I could write the text chat end of it in cold fusion. Is there a known way to easily add the video in this way?
Does anyone know of a cheap off the shelf video chat room that I can put up on my site and just pay for the bandwidth overage that it uses?
Thanks for any help any of you could give me.

There are several 2.4 GHz MacBook pros shipped over several years.
If this is your Mac (2007 model) scroll down to the memory section and read:
http://www.everymac.com/systems/apple/macbook_pro/stats/macbook-pro-core-2-duo-2 .4-15-santa-rosa-specs.html
Standard RAM:
2 GB
Maximum RAM:
6 GB*
Details:
2 GB installed as two 1 GB modules. No slots free.
*Apple officially supports a maximum of 4 GB of RAM but third-parties have been able to upgrade the system to 6 GB of RAM using one 2 GB and one 4 GB memory module.
Site sponsor Other World Computing sells MacBook Pro memory, as well as hard drives, batteries, carrying cases, and accessories.
... and that sponsor is not a bad place to get RAM at all. They are experts, and back it up with a "money back if it does not work in your Mac" guarantee.

Slightly off topic but a query on open type fonts

Hi all
I went to buy the frutiger fonts (9fonts) from adobe. The format is open type which is what I want. B ut when going to buy them I am asked whether I want mac or windows format. I thought open type fonts were cross platform? We have both MACs and PCs, if I want the font on both do I have to buy both formats ?
Link to font:
http://store.adobe.com/type/browser/P/P_1186.jhtml
Thanks for any help, sorry for this being off topic but I couldn't see where else to post.

Yes, that's it, pretty much. Also, our download manager needs to know whether you're using Mac or Windows. The *contents* of the purchased file are the same.

I currently have a DROID RAZR M and I'm 1 year into my 2 year contract. Since the Kitkat update, the phone won't stay charged and it's very buggy. I know this is not Verizons fault but it's also not mine. I would like to change my phone to an iPhone 5s

I currently have a DROID RAZR M and I'm 1 year into my 2 year contract. Since the Kitkat update, the phone won't stay charged and it's very buggy. I know this is not Verizons fault but it's also not mine. I would like to change my phone to an iPhone 5s and keep my same plan but switch to the Edge program. Is this possible? I don't think I should have to pay an early termination fee or anything like that since my phone has become almost unusable. I know under normal circumstances you have to wait 2 yrs to upgrade but due to the update and the poor service I'm now getting I hope Verizon can make an exception. Thank you.

How recently did you switch? If it's less than 60 days, then Verizon simply reinstates your previous account. The fact that you were on the EDGE plan and mailed the devices back, and they apparently are somewhere in the system, could cause complications, and it might just work out that you just go back on the same plan and they set you up with the same devices. I'm not sure how it will go - but since you are still being billed for the devices...

I know this is supposedly not possible, but I need to retrieve a specific voicemail from my iPhone which was also "cleared" from the Deleted Messages box. Any suggestions?

I know this is supposedly not possible, but I need to retrieve a specific voicemail from my iPhone which was also "cleared" from the Deleted Messages box. Any suggestions?
This is highly important. I know the number from which the voicemail arrived, but have not been able to figure out how to retrieve it. I accidentally had the voicemail in the Deleted Messages folder, and then Cleared this folder. If there is any possible way I might be able to retrieve this message, even if there is a cost associated with it, please help me.
Thank you.

I think you maybe able to restore from backup if that voicemail was included in the backup. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766

I know this has been asked before But I Deleted 6 mths worth of Bookmark folders, Cant use Undo,

I know this has been asked before But I Deleted 10 mths worth of Bookmark folders, Cant use Undo & havent backed up (live & learn) Someone posted do a restore from "Import & Backup" My listing in Restore is only 2010-6-29 back to 2010-6-22. Is this the way to go to retrieve as much as possible or is there another solution?

Those dates are when a backup was automatically made by Firefox, not dates when you saved specific bookmarks. Try restoring the backup from the day before you deleted all those bookmarks. It will restore the entire backup file - not just what you deleted, you will lose any bookmarks that you saved after the date of the file you restore.

I know this is the wrong forum, but- (Mac question)

I know this is the wrong forum, but…
Can anyone enlighten me?
How did a folder named just "Adobe", containing only something called "Acrobat.com.app"), end up in my root Applications folder?
Double clicking on "Acrobat.com.app" launches an installer that wants to install something called "AIR". What is that and what is it needed for?
What forum should I be posting this in?
A global search and searches in the Acrobat Macintosh forum were not helpful.
Can I just delete that Adobe folder or ignore it? It has identical Creation and Modified dates of January 15, 2010 17:56, which raises more questions than it answers.
Any input will be appreciated.

P.S. what I wrote above is about the Windows version; I assume that the Mac versions are the same.
Maybe… kinda, sorta… There are no ".exe" files in the Mac world.
I've never downloaded or installed either Acrobat.com or Adobe AIR. It has to have been the Acrobat Reader 9.3 update for the Mac that installed that sucker on my Mac. I had certainly never seen it before.
That, on top of the inexcusable, abominably surreptitious "Growl" installed by Adobe behind my back, strengthens my resolve not to acquire any more Adobe products, free or otherwise.
What in blazes are the Adobe corporate folks thinking?

A bit off topic, but what time should I arrive at the Keynote?

I'm posting this in the FCP forum because this is the only one I read. I'm attending Macworld for the first time and I have the cheap tickets for the Keynote (user's conference). I have no idea how early I need to show up to wait in line to guarantee I get into the Keynote.
Thanks and sorry for the off topic post.

Just showing a pick of what I look like...hee.
I will have an exhibitors pass, so I wonder if I can get in any later and still get good seats? HA! I will bring my lappy, to keep me occupied (I hope they have wireless access).
For iChat reports I'd need all your iChat accounts. That would be one BIG group chat.

Off-topic but I don't know where to put this...

I have what should be an easy activity but I'm spending more time than it's worth. Below is a clipping from a photo of a stained glass window. The unseen figure above the text is Aristotle and presumably the clipping is a quote of his words in ancient Greek. Can anyone provide an English translation for me?
By the way, my initial frustration is in loading the Greek alphabet onto my iMac. The selection menu lists the languages in the actual languages. The word "Greek" is not there and I don't know how to spell "Greek" in Greek!

Thanks. I was in the wrong menu. I went to Preferences > Language & Text > Language
I should have gone to Preferences > Laguage & Text > Input Sources
In any event, my problem now is the difference between modern Greek and ancient Greek. It's either that or, more likely, the text is not a quote but, instead, an almost random collection of Greek letters. The beginning of the statement refers to the human soul and energy but the kicker is the last two words. I can't find a meaning anywhere, including one dictionary for ancient Greek. I tried Google Translate and others on the web as well as a local translator on my Mac.

It'x close but I don't think that I've got the cigar yet. As near as I can determine, the beginning refers to the human soul but the words at the end don't translate to anything. I'm beginning to suspect that the text is not intended to be real and is merely a random collection of Greek letters!
I translated your hunch into Greek and the Greek words in the second half don't even come close to what's on the window.
I do appreciate the effort, though.

JDBC connection in EJB (Sorry i know this is a JSP forum but someone might have the a

In EJBs, we can always spawn a JDBC connection using the internal server side driver through defaultConnection() or kprb. My question is, can we spawn any other kind of connection from an EJB to another database on some remote machine, this would involve using the thin or oci drivers, i try but get security exceptions and access privilege exception though the account i use is privilegded for database operations. Can someone answer my question please.
