IMac Client Reports "Bluing" Of Windows. Where Do I Begin?

Dear Friends
I have a client who just bought a 24" iMac. I set up his iMac for him by transferring his files from his iMac G5 to the new machine with Apple's Migration Assistant. I then ran approximately 400MB's worth of updates, including the firmware update, which I successfully applied (at least according to the machine after the subsequent reboots).
My client, a very experienced and long-time Mac user with a PhD is business administration, reports:
This new computer is really, really strange. Many things that I
open (iTunes, Entourage for example), will turn baby blue and
show the name of the app in grey. I have to click again to do
anything. Sometimes I'm not fast enough and it turns blue again.
After I sent the previous e-mail, I was trying to delete some
other older e-mail. The background picture kept "flashing"
light and dark. Then when I clicked again on Entourage, it went
light blue. It took two more clicks before I could highlight
the e-mails that I wanted to dump.
However, when editing an image after each change I made, the
image would turn blue and show it's name. During that time I
could do nothing. Sometimes I was fast enough to click the blue
away and do some more with the eraser before it turn blue
again; sometimes it would come back before I could make another
change. (The blue is transparent, so I could still see the
scanned image.)
The same thing occurred in iTunes when I was creating a file to
burn for my daughter. Sometimes I was fast enough to move two
items and sometimes not.
I can't think of where to begin to help my client. Any suggestions are very, very welcome!

I can't offer a solution, but I've seen the situation you're describing. I've had it happen to my 17" core duo iMac several times. It's usually associated with dragging a file between windows. I've wondered if OS X has some kind of gesture recognition built in. I remember reading something about it in an application manual but I don't recall the context.

Windows 8.1 client reports as "Microsoft Windows NT Workstation 6.3 (Tablet Edition)"

Hey there,
I just brought our first Windows 8.1 client into our ConfigMgr 2012-R2 infrastructure and noticed that the Operating System and Name client attribute gets populated with Microsoft Windows NT Workstation 6.3 (Tablet Edition).
My question is, why does it also include "Tablet Edition" ? I must mention that because we do not have a Server 2012-R2 yet, the client is running in my local VMWare Workstation.
I would have expected that the client only reports "Microsoft Windows NT Workstation 6.3" like it did for previous versions. I do not have an issue with adding a % within our queries, but am just interested where the Tablet Edition comes from.
Thanks
Alex

Search engine broken?
Just search for Oracle 11g download and you get this link on the very first page

Then select 'See All' from the Microsoft Windows (x64) in the Oracle Database 11g Release 2 section

GroupWise client reports that there is no Default Mail Clien

Installation of GroupWise client reports that there is no default mail client. On clicking OK the next error: "The 'MAPI Session Handle' of the Novell GroupWise 'Object Request Broker' could not be accessed. The address book cannot run.
In our company we use GroupWise 7 on a mix of Windows XP Pro and A few Windows 7 Pro machines. On all machines where the GroupWise 7 client with hot patch 4 (HP4) was installed everything works fine along with other installed applications with a specific mention of MS Office 2003 or even MS Office 2010.
This morning (August 9, 2011) a new Windows 7 machine was deployed to a new Database Administrator. It was this machine that had these errors. The machine was deployed from a disk image.
The problem was baffling because we never experienced this problem on the other Windows 7 machines and un-installing and re-installing GroupWise even with Administrator privileges did not solve the problem.
Anyway, to cut a long story short, the bottom line is this: Don't trust an installation made by someone else even if they are Database Administrators! (Our IT dept consists of an IT Operations section and a Developers Section).
The installation of Microsoft Office by the IT Operations crew never includes the Microsoft office OutLook client. This installation had it included and that was what was causing the whole problem.
The Solution: Simply use the Microsoft Office installation to remove the Microsoft Office Outlook client and the problem went away immediately. We did not have to remove and re-install GroupWise after that was done.
Hope this helps someone.

Different display on client report builder and web reports

Hi all, I have build a report in report 6i version Report Builder 6.0.8.13.1.And I set the page to 8.5*11 ,and it runs well in the client ,but when I put it on the UNIX SERVER,and run it from web URL,It displayed different from the client report builder.The web report is "smaller" than the client report ,but the font size is as same as the client .
My HPUX is 11x,and display the Chinese report .
Any body know why ?give me some advice ,thank u very much.

Hi
If you had built the report definition on Windows and then moved this to Unix server, you may find different fonts in use. This is becuase your Unix setup does not have the same fonts install. At design time, You need to use fonts which are available on Unix also. The same fonts shaould also be installed for printer in Unix i.e. the AFM/PFM font files should be kept under $ORACLE_HOME/guicommonX/tkXX/admin/AFM or PFM directory. This would give you the same output and would lessen the porting affect.
Thanks

Hi for past 3 days i was thinking and breaking my head on how to add entire new at top table created in pdf report from c# windows forms with iTextSharp.
First: I was able to create/export sql server data in form of table in pdf report from c# windows forms. Given below is the code in c#.
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Configuration;
using System.Text;
using System.Data;
using System.IO;
using System.Data.SqlClient;
using System.Windows.Forms;
using iTextSharp.text;
using iTextSharp.text.pdf;
namespace DRRS_CSharp
public partial class frmPDFTechnician : Form
public frmPDFTechnician()
InitializeComponent();
private void btnExport_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
Document doc = new Document(PageSize.A4.Rotate());
var writer= PdfWriter.GetInstance(doc, new FileStream("Technician22.pdf", FileMode.Create));
doc.SetMargins(50, 50, 50, 50);
doc.SetPageSize(new iTextSharp.text.Rectangle(iTextSharp.text.PageSize.LETTER.Width, iTextSharp.text.PageSize.LETTER.Height));
doc.Open();
PdfPTable table = new PdfPTable(7);
table.TotalWidth=585f;
table.LockedWidth = true;
PdfPTable inner = new PdfPTable(1);
inner.WidthPercentage = 115;
PdfPCell celt=new PdfPCell(new Phrase(new Paragraph("Institute/Hospital:AIIMS,NEW DELHI",FontFactory.GetFont("Arial",14,iTextSharp.text.Font.BOLD,BaseColor.BLACK))));
inner.AddCell(celt);
Paragraph para = new Paragraph("DCS Clinical Report-Technician wise", FontFactory.GetFont("Arial", 14, iTextSharp.text.Font.BOLD, BaseColor.BLACK));
para.Alignment = iTextSharp.text.Element.TITLE;
iTextSharp.text.Image png = iTextSharp.text.Image.GetInstance("logo5.png");
png.ScaleToFit(95f, 95f);
png.Alignment = Element.ALIGN_RIGHT;
SqlConnection conn=new SqlConnection("Data Source=NPD-4\\SQLEXPRESS;Initial Catalog=DRRS;Integrated Security=true");
SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand("Select t.technician_id,td.Technician_first_name,td.Technician_middle_name,td.Technician_last_name,t.technician_dob,t.technician_sex,td.technician_type from Techniciandetail td,Technician t where td.technician_id=t.technician_id and td.status=1", conn);
conn.Open();
SqlDataReader dr;
dr = cmd.ExecuteReader();
table.AddCell("ID");
table.AddCell("First Name");
table.AddCell("Middle Name");
table.AddCell("Last Name");
table.AddCell("DOB" );
table.AddCell("Gender");
table.AddCell("Designation");
while (dr.Read())
table.AddCell(dr[0].ToString());
table.AddCell(dr[1].ToString());
table.AddCell(dr[2].ToString());
table.AddCell(dr[3].ToString());
table.AddCell(dr[4].ToString());
table.AddCell(dr[5].ToString());
table.AddCell(dr[6].ToString());
dr.Close();
table.SpacingBefore = 15f;
doc.Add(para);
doc.Add(png);
doc.Add(inner);
doc.Add(table);
doc.Close();
The code executes well with no problem and get all datas from tables into table in PDF report from c# windows forms.

Document doc = new Document(PageSize.A4.Rotate());
var writer= PdfWriter.GetInstance(doc, new FileStream("Technician22.pdf", FileMode.Create));
doc.SetMargins(50, 50, 50, 50);
doc.SetPageSize(new iTextSharp.text.Rectangle(iTextSharp.text.PageSize.LETTER.Width, iTextSharp.text.PageSize.LETTER.Height));
doc.Open();
PdfPTable table = new PdfPTable(7);
table.TotalWidth=585f;
table.LockedWidth = true;
Paragraph para = new Paragraph("DCS Clinical Report-Technician wise", FontFactory.GetFont("Arial", 14, iTextSharp.text.Font.BOLD, BaseColor.BLACK));
para.Alignment = iTextSharp.text.Element.TITLE;
iTextSharp.text.Image png = iTextSharp.text.Image.GetInstance("logo5.png");
png.ScaleToFit(95f, 95f);
png.Alignment = Element.ALIGN_RIGHT;
SqlConnection conn=new SqlConnection("Data Source=NPD-4\\SQLEXPRESS;Initial Catalog=DRRS;Integrated Security=true");
SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand("Select t.technician_id,td.Technician_first_name,td.Technician_middle_name,td.Technician_last_name,t.technician_dob,t.technician_sex,td.technician_type from Techniciandetail td,Technician t where td.technician_id=t.technician_id and td.status=1", conn);
conn.Open();
SqlDataReader dr;
dr = cmd.ExecuteReader();
table.AddCell("ID");
table.AddCell("First Name");
table.AddCell("Middle Name");
table.AddCell("Last Name");
table.AddCell("DOB" );

I’m sorry for the issue that you are hitting now.
This itextsharp is third party control, for this issue, I recommended to consult the control provider directly, I think they can give more precise troubleshooting.

Can you define "sometimes" a bit more?
Is it after a number of runs of a report?
Is it on a particular report?
Is it after you do certain operations on the report (paging, zooming, dill down, print, etc., etc.)?
Can you duplicate the issue if you isolate the report to a new test app?
Did you happen to notice if the issue existed prior to FP 3.5?
Is this on your dev computer or a client computer?
OS?

Just bought Ear Force Z11 - headset, can't get it to work on my iMac intel based on the Windows side

I have used Boot Camp on my iMac 21" early 2008 to partition and set-up Windows 7 so that I could use my FSX Flight simulator, I bought EarForce Z11 headset to use with my simulator and can't get it to work, has anyone else ran in to this problem? If anyone can help I would appriciate it, the computer recognizes that I plugged them in but I am only getting sound over the iMac speakers and nothing with the headset.

assuming it works on osx then
sounds like
1, the mixer in windows have muted the headset connection you can change that in the control panel
2. the driver for your audio card is not working 100% (read people say that the 32bit win7 don't have drivers from apple avaible)
with the right drivers it should work
my imac 21" have a splitter connected where I have external speakers from logitech and a skullcandy headset
connected both play and the internal imac speakers only make a sound at bootup at first
this is both in osx, was in win7 64bit and win8 64bit

Tunes: How to move [or copy] your music to a new computer [or another drive] - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527
Quick answer if you use iTunes default preferences settings: Copy the entire iTunes folder (and in doing so all its subfolders and files) intact to the other drive. Start iTunes with the option (shift on Windows) key held down and guide it to the new location of the library.
Downloading (using iOS or computer) past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store - http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519 - enabled with iTunes 10.3 and newer; not available in all countries; apps, books (not audiobooks), music, t.v. shows, and movies (some - not all studios have permitted this). Movies currently available in the USA only. Downloading previously purchased movies and TV shows requires iTunes 10.6 or later. Discontinued items not available. For items not included in the iCloud list (e.g., ringtones), or locations or computer systems where iCloud is not (yet?) available, you only get one download per fee paid. Apple notes it is your responsibility to back up your purchases.
Select the store on the left side of iTunes.
Click on Purchased on the right side under Quick Links.
You can re-download your available previous purchases.

I just upgraded to Snow Leopard and a new imac. Could someone tell me where the preference is to have a file open in its original file format. Right now my illustrator eps are opening in preview.

I just upgraded to Snow Leopard and a new Imac. Could someone tell me where the preference is to change file to open in original program instead of preview?

Right-click on one of the files and choose 'get info'. in the info box. Change the 'open with' setting to your correct application. Check the 'always open with' option before OK-ing the change, then click the 'change all' button before closing the info window.

Forms and Reports 6i with Windows XP

I have a problem with Forms and Reports 6i and Windows XP Pro. Forms crashes when the layout editor is starting. Also when Reports is starting a blue screen comes up. With another user, the problem does not occur! When the profile ist reset for the unsuccessful user it functions correct for a while.
It seems, that the user profile in certain situations will be corrupt with Forms and Reports 6i under XP.
The installation CD I have used is Forms and Reports 6i Release 2 for MS Windows 95/98/NT.
Can somebody help me to solve this problem?

I have read on Metalink:
MS Windows XP Professional certification: XP is currently not certified or supported on any release of Designer/SCM (Awaiting other related (IDS) products certification).
Maybe the problem is caused by this.

Since yesterday, clicking to read my email gets a blank window, not the email. Same w/ windows where data should be entered (like with online banking). Help!

Since yesterday, when I click to read my email I get a blank window instead of the usual window with the email itself. The same is happening with windows where data should be entered, like those virtual keyboards for online banking login, or windows where you can add records (like daily electricity and gas consumption). In all these situations, a window should pop-up and pop-up it does - but always blank.
I already unistalled/reinstalled Firefox and reset it "to its default state".
Thanks in advance for your help.
