Is it possible to deal with long key press?

On android if you touch down for a long time it triggers a event, so it's not a tap, but like a long press...is there something similar built into adobe air / mobile? Or does this require duct tape, and crazy glue...

Nothing will make it work. The iPad doesn't have the drivers to work with a USB 3G dongle. Neither will a microSim in any kind of adapter.
If you want a 3G enabled iPad, you need to buy one with 3G in.
One possible alternative is a MiFi device, which is a standalone 3G device which shares its 3G connection to WiFi enabled devices over WiFi.

New uc540 Deployment, repeating numbers with long key press on SPA525G2

Isssue that I am having. My client has a new UC540 build with all SPA525G2 phones with the latest firmware. Since having the system for 1 day, they have accidentently dialed 911 5 times from dialing 9 then a 1 for long distance but if they press the 1 key too long, it repeats itself just like if you hold a key in on a keyboard. Before calling Tech Support, I thought I would ask the community to see if anybody has any suggestions for me on how to keep the numbers from repeating themselves when holding the key in for more than a half a second?

We had a couple 911 calls our first couple days with our uc540. What came up with was that our old phone system buttons had a different feel. With these cisco phones, if you press the button all the way down in a quick press, the nunbers never double for us. You can hold down forever and never get a duplicate. But if you press slowly or don't press the button all the way, I can get double numbers when pressing. I think that there's a point in the actuation that the button can float between on and off and that can give you double numbers (I think in the gaming community that this is called "spamming" the button). Our old system took less pressure to press the button all the way down and as soon as we told everyone to press harder we haven't had a accidental 911.
If you push a button half way down and shake it left to right you can see a good example of how to spam the button. Yeah, that isn't how a person dials, but the first few days we got double-numbers just with people making calls. We have a few spa and a few 7900 series and we had issues on both but more on the spa phones.
One specific person had the most trouble and this person doesn't have the most stable hands... She wasn't calling 911, but she just couldn't dial the right number because they'd get an unintentional double digit in the middle of their dialing. She really has to press every number deliberately to make calls--I wish I had a better solution for her because it makes here feel dumb.

I did force shutdown on my MacBook Pro (2006 year, 15.4"), so, when I tried to boot, it shows apple logo (as usual) and shuts down. When I booting MacBook with Option key pressed it shows lock icon and field for password. Please help me.

Wait for advice on repairing a damaged filesystem. Forceshutdown stops processs in mid-stream and leaves some parts not-valid.
Do not proceed until you get that avice.

How can I deal with long sql by the oo4o?

I am using VB and oo4o to develop a sql executor which is a extention of an old system.
For some reason, I have to use oo4o v8.1.7 to deal with Oracle Database 8i to 11g.
But when I send a very long sql(11KB) to it I got a error in the VB enviroment.
The Err.Description is "automention error. Started object is disconnected by the client.".
The Err.Number is "-2147417848 ".
The sql that I send it to the program is a simple select sql that like select a, b, c, substrb(d, 1, 2), substrb(e, 2, 3) .... from A_TBL where A=aa;
This sql is normally executed by the sqlplus but I got an error by the oo4o.
When I insert a '' between the 30Xth items, it got exectuted normally.
ex. select a, b, c, substrb(d, 1, 2), substrb(e, 1, 2) ..... substrb(303th, 3, 4), '', substrb(304th, 1, 2) ... from A_TBL where A = aa;
How can I deal with this problem? Thanks.

So how can use this function correctly?By learning what exceptions are, how they're used, and what you can do to deal with them. There's a tutorial here: http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/essential/exceptions/index.htmlAnd here's a quick overview:
The base class for all exceptions is Throwable. Java provides Exception and Error that extend Throwable. RuntimeException (and many others) extend Exception.
RuntimeException and its descendants, and Error and its descendants, are called unchecked exceptions. Everything else is a checked exception.
If your method, or any method it calls, can throw a checked exception, then your method must either catch that exception, or declare that your method throws that exception. This way, when I call your method, I know at compile time what can possibly go wrong and I can decide whether to handle it or just bubble it up to my caller. Catching a given exception also catches all that exception's descendants. Declaring that you throw a given exception means that you might throw that exception or any of its descendants.
Unchecked exceptions (RuntimeException, Error, and their descendants) are not subject to those restrictions. Any method can throw any unchecked exception at any time without declaring it. This is because unchecked exceptions are either the sign of a coding error (RuntimeException), which is totally preventable and should be fixed rather than handled by the code that encounters it, or a problem in the VM, which in general can not be predicted or handled.

How do I turn on long press keyboard to write the same character many times with one keystroke only? I can only write 1 letter at a time with each key press. To write "aaaaa" I need to press 5 times the A key. I didn't use to do this.

I know this has something to do with INSERT key in Windows I guess. But suddenly I was using Mac OS X Lion and a keyboard sign appeared in the top bar, and the keyboard didnt work as it usually does. I mean, I wanted the long press key to write multiple caracters of course. Please help!

It's now a hidden option that can be turned on with a terminal command. The easiest way to do this is to download TinkerTool from this site:
http://www.bresink.com/osx/0TinkerTool/download.php5
Then go to Tinkertool > General tab > Select "support key repeat".
Logoff and login again.

No long key press on bluetooth keyboard?

I'm wondering if this is a limitation of the actual keyboard itself, iOS or even the app I'm using. Where if you press a key on the keyboard and hold it, the iPad sends that key over and over until release. Unlike the normal behavior of the key action 'OnDown' remaining active it simply resends the key.
I am using the ZaggMate and Splashtop to remote into my computer a play a game. For this game, in order to move, you need to use the arrow keys. Since holding the key fires multiple 'OnDown' and 'OnUp' events, the movement is not fluid, more like stop, go/stop, go.
Is there a way to work around this/where is this key press event actually getting mixed up?

Help with On key press and Frame

Hi everybody,
I have been trying to make this work but not able to. It would be of great help if u can tell where i am going wrong. Here is my code ( it is prety small) :
I am trying to draw a random line when i do a keypress on the text field.
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import java.awt.geom.*;
public class KeyPress extends Frame{
Label label;
TextField txtField;
public static void main(String[] args) {
KeyPress k = new KeyPress();
public KeyPress(){
super("Key Press Event Frame");
Panel panel = new Panel();
label = new Label();
txtField = new TextField(20);
txtField.addKeyListener(new MyKeyListener());
add(label, BorderLayout.NORTH);
panel.add(txtField, BorderLayout.CENTER);
add(panel, BorderLayout.CENTER);
addWindowListener(new WindowAdapter(){
public void windowClosing(WindowEvent we){
System.exit(0);
setSize(400,400);
setVisible(true);
public class MyKeyListener extends KeyAdapter{
public void keyPressed(KeyEvent ke){
char i = ke.getKeyChar();
String str = Character.toString(i);
label.setText(str);
Line2D myLine = new Line2D.Double(5,5,100,100);

How to deal with LONG data type in RTF template

Hi,
I'm developing a PO request report in which I should print some attachments. The attachments are stored in the database in table fnd_attachments_long_text in column long_text which data type is LONG. In my case the content of the column long_text is always plain text.
The query I use to get the text from the table is something like:
select long_text
from fnd_documents_long_text
where <some_conditions....>
The query runs fine in SQL developer but when I run the XML report I get following error: "Stream has already been closed". The XML file generated is complete in its structure but the XML node which should contain the text of the attachment is empty, therefore I cannot print the attachment in the report.
I made some researches on metalink and I've found note 832903.1 which explains the same error I'm getting. Looks like I cannot execute more than 1 query using the same JDBC connection if one of these queries retrieves a LONG data type.
Any advice on how can I get the attachment text to show correctly in my report?
Thank you

Hi,
Thank you for your reply,
Yes, I tried to get the text as described in that article but maybe I'm missing something because my data template doesn't show the attachment text.
The article talks about support for BLOB, CLOB and RAW and at the end it states "but we do not have support for RAW and LONG column types at the moment - we're looking into that for a future release". So this makes me think that I won't be albe to retrieve my text since it's stored in a LONG column.
I think that the error I'm getting is not strictly related to XML publisher but it is in some way related to the JDBC connection used to get the data. Infact I have an old version of the same report I'm trying do develop which is made in Report Builder and it is retrieving the attachment text correctly.
Right now I'm trying to use the Report Builder engine to get the XML data and then use XML Publisher to create the PDF output. Anyway, if it is possible, I would like to avoid Report Builder and use only XMLP.
Thanks

Best practice when dealing with long clips

I have some long clips that I want to use more than once with different in and out points. I know this can't be done so is the best practice to make duplicates of the clips and set different edit points or somehow roughly split the large clip into smaller clips and name them accordingly.

Not certain what you think you can't do. Take a long clip and open it in the Viewer. Set In and Out points. Drop that into the Timeline. Now you can move along in the Viewer clip and set new Ins and Outs and drop that into the Timeline. Clips in the Timeline are created from the Ins and Outs you set in the Viewer.
Is that what you want to do? If it is, I don't where making copies of the clip would work for you
Later, if you want to match up a clip in the Timeline to that master clip, just use Match Clip (find) in the timeline to find where it correaltes to your main clip
You can have FCE automatically create subclips at camera cut points by using DV Stop/Start Detect if that is what you're looking for

On HTC Desire with the HTC android 2.2 (froyo) rom, when typing a number or a punctuation sign using a long key press, the cursor stay in place instead of advancing and positioning itself at the end of what you type.

Tested on login and password field (in sync settings). Other text input doesn't look like they have this problem. But I haven't run extensive tests.
Well when I was trying to register my self in sync I came across this issue. This can be solved by flipping the phone on landscape mode.

Thanks for the report! We were not aware of this problem before, but we will investigate it and work on fixing it.

Will not boot from CD/DVD drive even with "C" key pressed

I have a G4 with a hard drive that is (apparently) dead. I would like to boot off the CD drive, but that does not work. I press "C", then turn the power on, continue holding down the "C" key, and the hard drive just makes some clicking noises for about 20-30 seconds, then gives up. The computer will not boot at all. Same thing happens when holding down "Option" instead of "C"
Why would the computer not boot off the CD drive?
Any tips would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Safari tabs - Can I open links in new tabs (with no key pressed)??

I am a heavy FF user and one of the most important feature I use is the tabbed browsing. The problem with Safari is, it does not allow me to set a default option to open all links (that i click) in new tabs rather than windows. There is a clear cut option available in the preferences pane of safari but that does not work. I don't want to press any button to open a link in a new tab.
Note: I know about "Merge all windows" option. But that is also one extra step right?

I'm running 10.4.11 and when I right click on a link I have the option (in the menu) to select 'Open Link in New Tab'.
Is that missing on 10.5.2?

Problem with a key

I have the new 15" PowerBook since last Monday(the DL-DVD-writer version). But the 'i' key needs more pressure than other keys. It is working but it' s annoying. Is it possible to lift of the key without breaking it? Or is there another common known solution for this problem?
Thnx

Hi,
My Powerbook is 4 days old and I also have this "weak" key centering around the "Shift" and "ctrl" keys - it feels like the base of it gives in a little too much underneath
It won't happen when you hit it squarely but when done in conjunction with other key presses or right after another key - there goes, heave down and squeek!
Irritating.
In a quandry now- to bring in or not to bring in.......

Strategies for dealing with large forms

I've created a dynamic form that is about 30 pages long. Although performance in reader is OK, when editing, every change takes about 10 seconds to be digested by Designer. I've tried editing parts and then copying them across, but formatting information seems to be lost when pasting.
What are the practical limits to how long a form can be, and are there any suggestions for how to deal with longer forms?
Many thanks
Alex

Performance may be okay in Reader 8, but a 30-page dynamic form will probably by unusable in Reader 7. I have done work with very large forms before, and I have maintained each page in a separate XDP and then brought them together once all the kinks are worked out. I don't know why you would be losing formatting information.
There is a technique that I have used where you use dynamic subforms to show only one page of the form at a time. That approach allows a very large form to be used in version 7 with acceptable response time. However, it's a very complex approach, and I have come to think that it's too complex for comfort. The more complex your approach is the more likely it is to fail in a future version of Reader.

12 hour kernel panic, resolved with option key, but why?

i have no idea why my ppc G5 failed to start this morning.
booted up last night at 10:30, read mail, went to see new video from "within temptation" emailed to me from student - also went to their website and to the site of 'nightwish"
listened to 2 samples and then went to watch 24.
shut down computer about 2am, having forgotten it was on.
it is scheduled to autoboot at 6:16am with itunes playing as my alarm.
this morning it did not complete booting before kernal panic. it would not boot
ran diskwarrior 4.1, it found 33% out of order and fixed most - still are some problems with SUID files, that i understand may not be problems, just un-updated database files. it went into kernal panic when i tried to check my other 500gig seagate drive (i have 2 internal drives) that is home to timemachine and DVD movies (250gig of each). inserted leopard disc, ran permissions and several were corrected, some would not be repaired. verified both discs - both are good.
from apple site (run from my macbook) shut down booted with 'X' pressed - no go.
then booted with 'option' key pressed, selected my hard disc and everything booted normally.....why?
as a 10yr apple user, if you can tell me why this happened &/or how i can avoid it in the future i'd really appreciate it
thankyou

I have no idea what could have caused the kernel panic, how to read a back-trace, or why the problem may have corrected itself after an option-key reboot.
However, in an unrelated topic, this statement raises some concerns:
..."ran diskwarrior 4.1, it found 33% out of order and fixed most - still are some problems with SUID files, that i understand may not be problems"...
I have never used "DiskWarrior" so am not familiar with details of the versions, but if permissions were repaired while booted from the "Disk Warrior" disk (which I assume was done since the system was described as unbootable from the drive) and if the OS contained on that disk was 10.4, and if the system on the hard drive was upgraded to 10.5 from an earlier version, then it is likely that "DiskWarrior" has reset the system's permissions to 10.4 values, which are incompatible with 10.5.
Furthermore, if the SUID messages appeared as a result of such an action, "repair permissions" in 10.5 will not repair them, and the messages do not fall into the category of those that should be ignored, potentially indicating that the system is in a state with security issues. Those familiar with the command line may be able to manually correct the permissions, but otherwise, an "archive and install" is likely the only recourse.
from:
http://www.alsoft.com/DiskWarrior/support.html
..."Note: If you have used any utility to repair permissions of a Leopard startup disk while started from Mac OS X 10.4 or earlier, Alsoft recommends that you perform an upgrade install of Leopard over your existing Leopard install. This will restore any changed permissions to their original values without altering your data."...

Is it possible to deal with long key press?
