I need a little bit of help if possible that is

The required file cannot be found" is there anyway to fix that?????? Thanks

I know about the length method, what I dont knowis
how to use the length and substring methodstogether
to solve the problem i mentioned initially. There are three ingredients to perform this task:
- String.length()
- String.substring(int start, int end)
- for-statement:
http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/java/nutsandbo
lts/for.html
Pseudo code:IN <- input String from user
LOOP FROM 0 -> IN.length()
print IN.substring(?, ?)
print ":"
END LOOP
Remember, Im very new. ;)Remember that by just handing you the solution, you
will learn far less than finding things out by
yourself.
; )Thanks a lot, i should be able to figure it out froom the pseudo code. :)

Need a little bit of help with substring...

Im very new at java programming, and need a bit of help with a problem:
Here is what I have:
System.out.print("Enter a string : ");
Scanner scan = new Scanner (System.in);
stringy = scan.nextLine();
Now I want to split the string "stringy" like this: h:hi:hip:hipp:hippo
I know this uses substring, but I can't figure out how to do it.
Any help would be great, thanks!

Nokia 720 Problems - Need a little bit of help her...

Hi,
Few Problems with a 10 day nokia 720:-
1. Earphone volume while in a call - I can't change the earphone volume while in a call. This is very frustating. Is this a problem with my nokia 720 or is this a general issue with all 720.
2. Microphone doesn't work in certain directions, while in a sleeping pose or sometimes sitting. This has never happened to me in around 6-7 phones that I have used. Please tell me if this is a problem for my phone or device issue.
3. When I switch off mobile data connection, my overall mobile connection is lost after some time. Also I am experiencing too frequent call drops, Also my network just goes out of the picture, it just doesn't detect network. Facing a lot of issues with this,
4. Sometimes it zooms out and doesn't come back to its original position. I don't know what is the problem with this. I have to restart my phone to get back in normal position.
5. My bookmyshow app doesn't work after the update [this can be ignored ]
I expected more out of my nokia lumia but hard to say if the problems are with my phone only or for all nokia 720. Hoping for some help in this forum.
Also please tell me if nokia will change my device if this is a problem with only my device and not every device. Please help.
Thanks in advance

the screen zoom problem and mic problem is there in many phones.
hv not been able to sort mic /call drop issue, bt for zoom
the phone zooms by double tap on any screen, this is a feature in ease of access. go to settings->ease of access->screen magnifier->off.

Need a little bit of help

Hi, i'm trying to make my java files runable from other machines and using the jar utility to do it. I have 10 files that get added to my jar file, and they are as follows:
Tester.class, Deck.class, Suit.class, SavitchIn.class, Player.class Card.class, Pips.class, CardSet.class, Hand.class, BlackJackHand.class
I am using this command to jar them:
D:\ITAS186T\Project1>jar cvf Tester.jar Tester.class Deck.class Suit.class SavitchIn.class Player.class Card.class Pips.class CardSet.class Hand.class BlackJackHand.class
my public static void main is in Tester.class so I modified the manifest to include Main-Class: Tester.class
now when i try to run it with this command: java -jar Tester.jar
i get this error:
Failed to load Main-Class manifest attribute from
Tester.jar
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance,
Terry

Heh, now I get this.. will it ever end!! :P
Thanks for all the help.

Need a little bit of guidance

I need a little bit of guidance.
My plan is to make a PKGBUILD, but I've ran into a few snags. I'm trying to make PKGBUILD for ToME-223-src (Troubles of Middle Earth). But first I want to compile and install it locally so I'll have a good idea of how to make the PKBUILD right and to test it for awhile. So the PKGBUILD is something later on to worry about.
I have a bit of delimma. For some reason, the developer(s) of this game have the binary for it to use suid (I'm not sure their reasoning since I'm not a very experience programmer). Fortunately, in the makefile, it uses the variable OWNER=games by default. This is what is responsible for setting the ownership of all of the files when "make install" is ran appearantly. This presents a few challenges.
When you get to the point of where you make install it, it's install rule wants to recursively run chown on all the files being installed like a nice and tidy makefile does. So if you're not logged in as root when you do the "make install" it gets choked up a bit and doesn't copy/install all the files. So a regular user account doesn't generally have needed privileges to run chown and it has to be assumed when someone is going to install my tentative package they won't either.
Another delimma is that since it wants to utilize suid, this creates the necessity of a regular user account to be the owner of these files (I don't like the idea of this game running with root privileges personally). We don't want root ownership on whatever files have their suid bit set I would think. So this will require the making of the appropriate user. Again, this usually requires high enough privileges by the person building.
This of course could be solved by using useradd in the build function, and the having builder being logged on as root when they makepgk, but I really don't like that nor feel it's a very kosher approach.
Any idea of how I can come up with an elegant solution to this? How is this sort of situation normally handled with ABS?

If a package needs chown on install, or a new user created, this is typically done in the .install script. When pacman installs the pakcage, the .install script is run as root.
Based purely on your description, my suggestion would be to skip the make install stage, and use install commands in the PKGBUILD to put the files in the right places. In the .install script, create the required user and associated permissions.
Here's a typical example.

Little bit of help

Hi,
I wonder if anyone can help me with my problem.
Here is my piece of SQL.
I know what I currently have - *(CASE WHEN ITL.FROM_LOC_ID = 'W%' THEN 'D1' OR WHEN ITL.FROM_LOC_ID != 'W%' THEN 'D2' END) Site* is wrong.
And I was just wondering if anyone could show me how to set out what i'm trying to do in the correct way.
Basically, all I want is an extra column called 'Site' and if ITL.FROM_LOC_ID = 'W%' then display 'D1' if not then display 'D2'.
SELECT DISTINCT AU.NAME, ITL.REFERENCE_ID, (CASE WHEN ITL.FROM_LOC_ID = 'W%' THEN 'D1' OR WHEN ITL.FROM_LOC_ID != 'W%' THEN 'D2' END) Site
FROM INVENTORY_TRANSACTION ITL, ORDER_HEADER OH, APPLICATION_USER AU
WHERE CODE = 'Pick'
AND TO_LOC_ID = 'CONTAINER'
AND ITL.REFERENCE_ID = OH.ORDER_ID
AND OH.DELIVER_BY_DATE >= TO_DATE($P{Deliver_By_Date},'DD-Mon-YYYY')
AND OH.DELIVER_BY_DATE < TO_DATE($P{Deliver_By_Date},'DD-Mon-YYYY') + 1
AND ITL.USER_ID = AU.USER_ID
ORDER BY ITL.REFERENCE_IDThanks in advance.
Sam

Thanks Ibrahim,
I got some data back, adding that to my query. However I have just realised there may be something else I need to add in..
With adding that to my query each record displayed D2 in the Site column.
This is because my live data thats i'm pulling from the database looks like this;
Reference ID      Name               From_Loc_Id
0080107253        Sam Mardell        W0001
0080107253        Sam Mardell        W0003
0080107253        Sam Mardell        W0004
0080107253        Sam Mardell        W0005
0080107253        Sam Mardell        W0008
0080107253        Dan Smith          A07A
0080107253        Dan Smith          A45A
0080107253        Dan Smith          B37A
0080107253        Dan Smith          D34A
0080107253        Dan Smith          E02A   So my output I would like to look like this;
Reference ID      Name               Site
0080107253        Sam Mardell        D1
0080107253        Dan Smith          D2 Currently i'm getting;
Reference ID      Name               Site
0080107253        Sam Mardell        D2
0080107253        Dan Smith          D2 I think because the Reference_ID refers to both sites in the query.
Hope this makes sense.
SM.

I have an imac osx 5 mos.old. First time today I can not open my desktop folder/files. I need to read them. Message is: appleworks 6 quit unexpectedly. I need to read them. Is it possible that new software downloaded yesterday is problem?

I have an imac osx 5 months old. For the first time today I can not open my desktop folders which are very important to me. How can I open these folders.
The message when I click on the folder is "appleworks 6 quit unexpectedly". I can not open the folder. Is it possible that new software installed could cause the problem when I get the message "new softward available for your computer, install now. Maybe I should never install upgrade. Please help in layman's language how to open my folders. Thanks.

The curious thing here is that on the one hand the code cannot be loaded so how could the trojan code be ever executed. But you would expect the "Unexpectedly quit" message if the intel trojan did get executed in a ppc app. So this begs the question when (and how) does the trojan code get executed in conjunction with launching an app?
I understand code injected into a specific app like safari that uses the global environment variable to access the code in /Users/Shared. But I don't understand how that code could be executed by attempting to run an randomly chosen ppc app. Unless of course other code has been injected is in a more critical place than just safari and that is scary.
Some of this was explained to us a few weeks back by an infected user who reverse engineered the code, working with Intego to figure out why he was being re-directed on Google searches. At the time, nobody believed much of anything he was saying, but F-Secure explains it more fullly in this analysis. Note that there is a filter component to keep it from loading code into apps that would be unstable, so watch for the next variant to filter out ppc only apps.
In a related matter, I got word from the PC side of the house that similar techniques are being used by drive-by infections that were injecting code into a running app which would disappear when they quit the app. A one-time infection, so to speak. Makes it really hard to even know you were temporarily infected, let alone how, why, what damage, etc.

Little bit of help with the duplication process needed

Hi
I trying to duplicate a database from one server to a remote server. They are both running windows server 2003 (my first problem) , the primary server is running oracle 11gR1 and the (hopefully) receiving server is running 11gR2(is that going to be a problem?) and I'm a little stuck on some parts of the process.
The book I'm using says to edit the listener.ora file to include a SID_DESC of the remote database. Here is my listener.ora file with the modifications
LISTENER =
(DESCRIPTION_LIST =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = test.host.local)(PORT = 1521))
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = IPC)(KEY = EXTPROC))
SID_LIST_LISTENER =
(SID_LIST =
(SID_DESC =
(SID_NAME = CGARDMSTR)
(ORACLE_HOME = G:\app\administrator\product\11.1.0\db_1)
(PROGRAM = extproc)
(SID_DESC =
(GLOBAL_DBNAME = CGARDMSTR)
(ORACLE_HOME =G:\app\administrator\product\11.1.0\db_1)
(SID_NAME = CGARDMSTR)
*(SID_DESC* *=*
*(GLOBAL_DBNAME* *=* cgard)
*(ORACLE_HOME* *=F:\oracle\product\11.2.0\dbhome_1)*
*(SID_NAME* *=* cgard)
(bold is what i added)
it then said to chnage my tnsnames.ora
CGARD =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = test.host.local)(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVER = DEDICATED)
(SERVICE_NAME = cgard)
CGARD5DE =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = test.host.local)(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVER = DEDICATED)
(SERVICE_NAME = CGARD5DEV)
CGARDMST =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = test.host.local)(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVER = DEDICATED)
(SERVICE_NAME = CGARDMSTR)
cgard =
*(DESCRIPTION =*
*(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = live.host.local)(PORT = 1521))*
*(CONNECT_DATA =*
*(SERVER = DEDICATED)*
*(SERVICE_NAME = cgard)*
I changed the local domain to host for business reasons
The next step was to create a initialization parameter file which I am guessing is a pfile and hopefully not a spfile. It then says to only enter one param db_name and the conversion params if the filesystem is diffrent. Problem is I don't know what to do with this file, if I am suppose to switch the second database to this file then surly I would need some more params? Anyway thats the first of many questions.
When I try to run through the rman commands it describes it also trips up:
RMAN> connect auxiliary sys/*********@live.host.local
RMAN-00571: ===========================================================
RMAN-00569: =============== ERROR MESSAGE STACK FOLLOWS ===============
RMAN-00571: ===========================================================
RMAN-04006: error from auxiliary database: ORA-12170: TNS:Connect timeout occurr
ed
The other database is up and connectable via sqldevloper so I'm guessing it was my configuration of listener and tnsnames
Ok to reiterate my questions are:
1) what needs to be in the pfile I create for the database thats going to receive the backup and what do I do with that file when I have made it?
2) I am pretty sure my listener and tsunamis config is completely wrong so can I have some pointers on fixing that?
3) Was the reason I could not connect to the receiving database my tns and listener config or is it something else?
Quite a few other questions but untill I know some more about the above I doubt I will be able to ask properly.
Also if this helps the book I am using is Expert Oracle Database 11g Administration and the page is 835(the method that begins on that page) and I am willing to write out the whole method if you need more details.
Oh and if you havent figured it out I am very new to this so if some of this sounds very wrong or just stupid just say what I need to change and I will get right on it.
Thanks
Alex

So I am not quite sure what it wants. I read somewhere about a password file but I don't understand how it will help, also most things I have looked at wernt clear on how to do it. I took a stab anyway:
G:\app\administrator\product\11.1.0\db_1\BIN>orapwd file=orapwcgard password=*********** entries=20 ignorecase=n
Was run on the original database host.
File was then copied to "F:\oracle\product\11.2.0\dbhome_1\database" on the receiving database's host it was then renamed to PWDcgard.ora as there was file there already with that name.
It did not help(same error).
The book I am using mentions the 'PASSWORD FILE' param to be used with the duplicate command but I cant find a example on how to use it so any help with that would be great.
Thanks for the effort so far guys its really appreciated.

Just A Little Bit of Help Needed...

Hi.
My movie was edited in Final Cut Express 4. It's a web movie that will also be repurposed for DVD. I'll also have it duplicated at DiscMakers. In FCE, I applied a deinterlace filter. I make sure it's deinterlaced when it's exported so it plays great on YouTube and Facebook.
Now that I'm ready to burn this to a DVD using iDVD, I have a few questions.
1. Do I remove the deinterlace filter from FCE and send the interlaced footage right to iDVD by using export QuickTime movie?
2. Can I apply copy protection to this project in iDVD?
3. If iDVD doesn't allow for it, can it be applied at a place like DiscMakers from my provided DVD?
4. Can I sell my DVD that I produced with iDVD and not have to worry about copyright issues with apple templates?
Thanks so much.
Scott

Lots of interesting questions.
+1. Do I remove the deinterlace filter from FCE and send the interlaced footage right to iDVD by using export QuickTime movie?+
Doesn't seem like you'd need to, but I'd make a small project and test it both ways.
+2. Can I apply copy protection to this project in iDVD?+
No, but you could add a watermark to the movie in FCE, and to the menus in iDVD. You could also put the FBI warning at the beginning/end of the video, and/or copyright the material and mark it as such.
+3. If iDVD doesn't allow for it, can it be applied at a place like DiscMakers from my provided DVD?+
Check with them -- it's my understanding that the protection can be created when DVDs are pressed.
+4. Can I sell my DVD that I produced with iDVD and not have to worry about copyright issues with apple templates?+
I've not seen that issue addressed (I'd start by searching the forums). Perhaps get it in writing from Apple or use your own images to change to your own theme (I'm just offering ideas here; I have no legal background nor do I know what's on the rest of your DVD).

Need a tiny bit of help please!

Hey guys,
I have a full set of renders for a character. At this time I
have a 3 point stand and an 8 point walk motion. Basically 3
separate images for standing and 8 separate images for walking.
I want to use AS3 and have the character standing and doing
the 3 point animation. Then I want to make him walk via user
control with the 8 walk images.
To this point I have searched everywhere for a tutorial on
how to do this but all I end up finding is for artists and how to
draw the animations. But like I said, I have the animation images,
I just need to learn how to implement them into flash.
In the end to learn this, all I want to do is to properly
encorperate the images into flash so that I can do a test movie and
have the character doing his stand animation and then when I press
left or right have him do the walk animation. From there I will go
onto collision and whatever I feel like learning at that time.
Right now, just getting a standing animation and a user controlled
walk would be great.
Could anybody point me towards a good tutorial on how to do
this?
Thanks in advance for any help you can give.

A lot of the avi files made on Windows machines use variable bit rate mp3 audio, which QT will not play. One workaround is to use this freeware Windows video processor to change the format of the avi audio.
VirtualDub
Open the avi in VirtualDub, set the video menu to Direct Stream Copy and set the audio to Full Processor Mode. Then choose either uncompressed audio in the compression item in Audio Menu or IMA audio. Now open the avi and then use Save as Avi in the File menu. The video will be passed through with no change to the new avi but the audio will be changed to the new compression setting. The two compression types I mentioned will play in QT Player with no problem. You will need to have the video codec for the avi in Video for Windows form. If you can play the avi in Windows Media Player you have the right codec already.

Novice in need of a bit of help

The last time I put together a website was with Frontpage, so
this is the first time i've attempted to do serious work in DW.
I'm currently at a stage where i've done the website layout
in PS, have sliced it up in IR and am editing it in DW. I've also
done a Flash menu that i'm trying to integrate into DW.
I've run into a number of problems though:-
1. I can't seem to move the images around in DW - the center
of the website will be taken up by a white portion (where all the
text will go) and i've tried to delete that and put it back in as a
background image. But when I do that, the image that's directly
below it (a grey bar for the bottom of the website) get's pushed
up. I can't seem to move any of the images around. Is there a way
of locking all of the images, bar the one that's currently
selected, that I don't want to immediately move around (e.g. with
different layers in PS)?
2. When I try to import the Flash menu into DW, I can't move
it around either. It just sits in the spot it was inserted in.
Additionally, I can't find a way of giving the Flash menu a
transparent background. I just need the Flash buttons to sit over
the background image. Is that something I need to correct in Flash
or can I do that in DW?
3. When I eventually get the Flash menu sitting nice and
pretty on top of the background image, how do I link the Flash
buttons to the different pages?
4. How do I insert a pdf d/l function into the website?
There'll be a tonne of documents on there (it's for a small
accounting firm) and the client wants the ability to offer some of
the documents as pdf downloads.
Any help/advice'd concerning these issues would be greatly
appreciated, thanks.

While this is not surprising, it's a VERY bad start. One
should never use
HTML written by a graphics program for 'serious' work. It's
fragile, and
poorly formed, and will break at the slightest provocation.
I'd guess that
in excess of 20% of all the posts here are directly related
to the use of
such HTML.
In addition, Flash menus are bad business. You create a
monster for
yourself, since DW will not manage the links in that menu, in
the event that
files are named or moved from their current location. They
are also
inaccessible to those using screen assistive devices, and are
just downright
bad.

You are suffering from a well-known disease, called "trying
to build HTML
pages without knowing HTML", often also called "trying to use
an HTML
authoring program as if it were Microsoft Word". I'm not
trying to be
snarky here. You will just need to learn some HTML. When you
do this, you
will quickly discover that HTML doesn't allow you to just put
things on the
page as if it were a graphics program, or a printed page
layout program.

See above. Also, to make Flash transparent is a trick. You
can use the
Flash
wmode parameter (however, Safari does not support this
properly!).

You have to do this in Flash, not HTML - another good reason
not to use
Flash Buttons.

Zip them, and link to the zipped document as you would to any
other file.
You can force a download, but that would require
server-scripting that I
don't think you are ready for yet.
Good luck - there's lots of help here to get you up to speed.
Don't be shy
about seeking it!

Need a quick bit of help using Terminal

I have something simple I want to do with Terminal but I am obviously doing it wrong!
I want to change the format of screen grabs (I have to do a ton of them at work and I'm tired of re-saving PNGs as JPGs).
I've read I need to type the line into Terminal:
defaults write com.apple.screencapture type jpg
So I did. Then I logged out and logged back in to my computer (just for good measure? I dunno). It's still saving my screen grabs as PNGs.
It's got to be something simple that I'm doing wrong. Thanks in advance for any help!

As an easy way to change the user interface aspect of Finder to save
screenshots as jpg instead of png, I've used OnyX from Titanium
Software, a free running interface utility that can so several things.
{Not that I got it to do that, but found the extra options it allows can
be of some use, outside of the chance you could really mess up
the OS if you mis-use some aspects of this kind of utility.}
While there is a way, & someone had posted how to change it
in terminal (in single user mode, etc) I do not remember all that
because I use OnyX for general maintenance every so often &
have it in my computers. There is a version for your Mac's OS...

Good luck & happy computing!

Newbie question? Probably. I just need a quick bit of help!

Hi folks
I don't use iMovie too much, but can usually figure out the program enough to suit my needs... except today, I can't for the life of me figure out how to lop off the end of the video which is dead space!
I have 5min22 of content, with a 5min13 song. However, there is over a minute of dead space hanging out at the end of the timeline viewer. I tried to hover the mouse over the right side of the clip viewer to find some kind of editing ability that would let me squeeze in on the content and get rid of that extra minute of dead space. Can't seem to find it, though...
I'm TOTALLY missing something, right?!
Thanks in advance to anyone who can help me out!

Ah ha! Found what I was looking for by switching to the clip viewer-- an uninvited clip of 1min of BLACK.
Clip deleted, user pleased.

Little bit of help[ with a button.

Good day all!
I need help making a button. This is what I want to happen.
I have a bunch of text, One of the words "merino" is bule as
to say there is a link hear! And I want an image of the "merino" to
come up, like a "ALT" box. Or have an image in the "ALT" box?
I know how to do this in "Flash" i.e just drop in the image
on the over state of the button event. Easy as pie! This is why I
cant get to grips with Dreamweaver! I hate it!
But I am willing to learn and maybe in time love???
Thanks all!

HTML is a lot different from Flash! :-)
I believe you could do this using DW's Show-Hide layer
behavior - have
mousing over the link trigger a layer with the image to
appear. Someone else
may have a better idea.
Just FYI, having to mouse over a link in order to get more
information about
it isn't usually appreciated by users. You *might* want to
re-think this
plan..
