I'm not exactly sure what just happened
Hey,
So yesterday I was online, and searching for images on google (not adult content, it was a school related search).
I clicked on the the picture and then instead of seeing the picture, I get some kind of warning from safari. I don't exactly know what it said because it happened relatively quickly. All I know was that a pop up from Safari came up that said something along the line about "not closing out and something about scanning" and in the back of this Safari message pop up I saw something that looked like it was downloading (like when you download software, and it has those bars showing you the progress of the download).
I'm really, really sorry that my explanation is as descriptive as possible. It just happened really, really fast, I didn't even get to read the whole Safari message. And then Safari says that it wasn't able to open up the page (it was the page you get when Safari cannot make an internet connection).
So basically I wasn't sure if that was actually Safari scanning the picture before it was opened. (I was even downloading the picture, I was just doing a google search). Or if it was spyware/adware trying to download onto my computer. I don't know if it was successful and was wondering what you guys thought and if you think I should download some adware/spyware. I have Clam X and haven't really used it, but I just used it to scan my documents, and everything and nothing came up.
Sorry if I'm really confusing. I'm just nervous that I may have gotten something malicious on my computer. Thanks.
Btw I have Leopard. I don't know if that changes anything. I just got my Macbook, so i really, really don't want anything to happen to it. Thanks.
I don't think I actually downloaded something. I was just worried because after I clicked on the picture, there was a Safari pop up (containing that warning). And then something on the actual screen, it looked as if something was downloaded (it may have been Safari scanning the picture) because the picture didn't open up, instead the window screen just said that it was unable to open up the page.
I was just worried a trojan or something like that may have creeped in.
I did your window download and it's just says Bio 112 (I downloaded something for my class like a week ago).
Should I be worried? Should I get some type of adware installed?

Not sure what just happened...everything just slowed/choppy in the middle of my session
I was working on a project and all of a sudden everything with in PS got noteably slow and choppy. This first happened while using the selection tool (polygonal lasso), which was lagging behind and making late clicks. I finished my selection and noticed the cursor in general was slow choppy still. I saved my work, shutdown PS, then reboot my computer. I reopen my project, the cursor lag seemed to be gone but the brush tool was not working correctly. Instead of making smooth burst of color with one click (gradient like), it now looks like 256 4 bit (old nintendo style) bursts. Or you could say it looks like multiple rings getting smaller and darker, like counting the rings of a tree trunk.
This happens instantly after opening a file of any type and size. I work with CMYK and 300dpi and while working on a page, this just happened out of nowhere.
I have an ASUS G74SX, i7 CPU, GeForce 560M w/2 gig RAM, 8 gig of SDRAM, 3 each SSD 300gigs (this is basically a 6 month old gaming laptop and has been working fine with PS until now). I have my PS scratch disk set to my F drive for all art and there is nothing more than 2 gigs of space being used right now. My RAM used in PS prefs was maxed at 5205k as suggested by the program.
I would post a picture but this forum will not allow a big enough image to show exactly what I am describing.
PS CS6 is fully up to date as well as all drivers for my GPU and the rest of my laptop.
Thanks
JoshI personally like to Crop, and then use PNG for my screen-caps. If I need more images, say to show other Palettes, etc., then I do one each for those shots.
We see a lot of full-screen caps posted, where aggressive JPEG is used, and nothing can be read. That is especially true with images, like Adobe Encore's Flow-chart, where there is a lot of text and linking being shown.
Just my personal preferences.

Would appreciate some help - not sure what just happened?
This is my first post to the Forums, and I have only had my phone for a couple of days (I've never had a smartphone before either), so please bear with me if I sound completely ignorant.
I just got my HTC Droid Incredible over the weekend and I have fallen in love with it! I had no problems until just a few minutes ago. I went to answer a call, but accidentally hit the button to end the call. I just hit the "phone" button to get back into the phone dialer where I could call them back. At this point my screen just went black, and eventually brought up a little red triangle with a red exclamation point on the screen. I kept trying to turn it on but nothing would happen, so I took the battery out, put it back in, and turned it back on. It turned back on, but it brought up a screen that had a little picture of a Droid character and it had several menu options (One of them was recovery, can't remember what the other ones were). I kept hitting the volume up and power button and finally the phone turned back on, and now it seems as if everything is fine with it. Does anyone have any idea why it would do that, and what menu option I could have selected? I am afraid I did something that will mess up the phone.

I recently installed ICloud on my PC. Now my Outlook continues to freeze up and I have no emails in ICloud. Not sure what is happening? I logged into ICLOUD and mail is not there either.
Until Apple decides to accept responsibility and fix this issue you will need to get rid of iCloud. It's too bad because before Apple decided to throw out the patch/malware, it actually worked kind of neat. So, this is what I've done to regain control over Outlook and iTunes; re-boot the pc, launch iCloud control panel and sign out, saving data to your computer when asked. Under add/remove programs, un-install iCloud, re-boot again. Go to windows control panel under folder option, second tab (view) select "show hidden files, folders & drives" and select ok. Now double click on your "C" drive and do a "Control F" (for find). In the search box type APSDaemon.exe and hit search. Right click on this file and hit Delete sending it to your recycle bin. You may want to cut this file out of your recycle bin and place it in a temp folder until you are sure everything is working properly. You should now be able to use Outlook and iTunes without them hanging. In Outlook, under contacts you will need to move your contacts from iCloud contacts back to your default contacts folder. Under iCloud contacts do a "Control A" and drag your contacts back to their default location.
Hope this helps, in the future I would be vary leery of installing anymore Apple patches.

Not quite sure what I'm doing wrong.
As the topic states, not quite sure what I'm doing wrong here. I'm doing a problem for a class and maybe you guys could help me out, or point me in the right direction. The question states:
"Write a program that reads in investment amount, annual interest rate, and number of years, and displays the future investment value using the following formula: "
futureInvestmentValue = investmentAmount x (1 + monthlyInterestRate)numberOfYears*12
(numberOfYears is to the power)
import javax.swing.JOptionPane;
public class Investment {
public static void main(String[] args) {
double investmentAmount;
double interestRate;
double investmentValue;
int years;
String stringInvestmentAmount = JOptionPane("Please Enter An Investment Amount");
investmentAmount = Double.parseDouble( stringIvestmentAmount );
String stringIntrestRate = JOptionPane("Please Enter An Intrest Rate In Decimal Form");
intrestRate = Double.parseDouble( stringIntrestRate );
String stringYears = JOptionPane("Please Enter A Number Of Years");
years = Int.parseInteger( stringYears );
interestRate = 1 + interestRate / 12; //Monthly interest, I believe this is how you calculate it.
investmentValue = investmentAmount * Math.pow(interestRate, years * 12); //Now the exponent should be the number of months.
System.out.println("Your investment value is " + investmentValue + ".");
}My Errors are:

Edited by: Close on Oct 23, 2007 4:12 PMString stringInvestmentAmount = JOptionPane("Please Enter An Investment Amount");What is this line trying to do? If you are trying to create a JOptionPane object and pass that String to the constructor then you need the new keyword. If you are trying to call a method of the JOptionPane class then it would be a good idea to include the method name. I sure you are trrying to do the second option.
Once you fix that, it is likely the other errors will disappear. Or different ones will emerge. -

Please tell me what just happened...
OK. Here is what just went down when I went into a corporate AT&T Store:
1. I told the sales guy that I just purchased a 3G iPhone on June 3rd online, and would like to pay the 10% restocking fee and get a new 3GS.
2. He said that would be fine and started messing on the computer and said he took the phone off my account and opted me back out of my 2 year contract I renewed.
3. The manager then came over and said they cannot issue refunds from online purchases and I need to mail it back to AT&T.
4. The sales guy then let me pre-order the iPhone 32GB 3GS iphone for $299 and said he had to keep my 3G iphone until I pick up my 3GS next friday, unless I wanted to come by sooner and "tell them how to return it to AT&T".
5. He gave me my sim card out of my phone so I could use it on a backup phone I have at home.
6. Now I am home, and AT&T website is telling me I am eligible for an upgrade (although I just upgraded at the store).
Am I officially upgraded? If I order one online get I get the one next friday in the store AND in the mail and have 2, activate 1, and sell the other one on the side? If someone has any idea what just happened please let me know.

What just happened? HD password suddenly doesn't work...
Alright this is a tricky one. W520 w/ Intel SSD.
I've got a Supervisor (SPV) password set for my BIOS as well as a HD password set.
I don't think I had a Power-on password set but I'm not sure.
No problems, my password has always worked.
I'm working and I have my laptop plugged into my LAN via Ethernet and I shut down. I always use wireless but was working with my router settings so had it plugged in via Ethernet this time.
When I start up, it started trying to boot from LAN, I see the Intel Boot manager start up (screen saying Press Ctrl + S to change options), and of course there is nothing on my LAN to PXE boot from so it proceeds after failing.
Then it asks for my Supervisor password, I enter it, works, asks for my HD password, I enter it, doesn't work. I try again, doesn't work. Try a third time, locks me out. I restart the machine.
The next time it asks for my HD password first rather than my Supervisor password, which doesn't work again. I reboot again.
Third time through this charade and for some reason the HD password works now but only to get me into the BIOS -- meaning I've pressed F1 and it asks for my password and lets me into the BIOS settings.
From here I try to remove the User password on the hard drive but it does not accept the password -- the same password I just entered and it accepted.
Now I'm not fat fingering or anything, the password is simple and I'm making sure I'm typing it in exactly correct.
So somehow powering off and powering on with my Ethernet cable connected has majorly screwed up my passwords in the BIOS. I think it was set to re-order boot devices if Wake-on-LAN was enabled or something, but something in that process must have screwed up my BIOS config. I don't know what to do. I don't understand what the heck is happening here. Password works then all of a sudden doesn't?But the real question is why for the past year did the passwords work and then all of the sudden after this anomaly the disk password doesn't work? I'm not 100% sure of what my configuration was, but I know that most of the time it required one password -- supervisor, and occasionally it asked for 2 -- disk password as well I believe. This may have been related to the Password on Restart setting I think -- asking for the disk password on cold vs. warm boot. But I know both were exactly the same. But after this incident only the Supervisor password worked.

What just happened? - iTunes gone crazy
So, this just happened: I opened iTunes and EVERYTHING was gone, all the songs, podcasts etc. I can find them from my computer but they seem to have disappeared from my iTunes. Is there any sensible explanation for this? Has my computer been hacked or could I have done it myself by accident?
Windows XPGo to my documents/MyMusic/itunes/itunesMusic and see if there is anything there. if not it is a problem with XP.
If all your music is there go to edit... preferences...advanced there make sure your iTunes music location is C:\Documents and Settings\"Your computer name"\My Documents\My Music\iTunes\iTunes Music
if not change it to that.
