Is SUN Going to be here in a year?

That stock price is looking dramatically bad. 4 dollars. Ouch!
If not, how will that effect java...
What is happening to turn it around...

If SUN does go away I guess we can sell out to M$ and pick up C# seeing as how its almost identical to Java. As Windows is almost identical to the Mac OS that came out 10 years before it. And how MS Word is almost identical to WordPerfect and every other Microsoft program that looks like some other program because they stole someone elses bright idea and marketed it with thier billion dollar advertising team. I'm not a Mac user either I do use Windows and I do like despite its flaws, but I recognize that its a stolen idea and if Macs had the software that windows gets I would probably be using one.

  • I have a friend who was going to sync her phone with my computer to get the new update..  how do i add her phone with out her losing everything on her phone and not getting all my info on her phone..

    i have a friend who was going to sync her phone with my computer to get the new update..  how do i add her phone with out her losing everything on her phone and not getting all my info on her phone..

    First, create a separate login on your computer for your friend. Do this BEFORE you do anything else. Next, make sure iTunes is up to date. Then:
    1. Disable auto sync when an iPod/iPhone is connected under Preferences>Devices in iTunes.
    2. Make sure you have one contact & one event in the supported applications(Address Book, iCal) on your computer. These entries can be fake, doesn't matter, the important point is that these programs not be empty.
    3. Connect her phone, iTunes running, do not sync at this point.
    4. Store>Authorize this computer.
    5. File>Transfer Purchases(To make sure all purchased content on her phone will be in her itunes library).
    6. Right click in the device pane & select reset warnings.
    7. Right click again and select backup.
    8. Right click again & select restore from backup, select the backup you just made. When prompted to create another backup, decline.
    9. This MUST be followed by a sync to restore her itunes content, which you select from the various tabs, You'll get a popup regarding her contacts & calendars asking to merge or replace, select merge.
    You should be good to go.

  • Sun goes under!

    Where do all these "What will happen to Java if Sun goes under" posts come from? I mean, this is a company that spent over $400 million in R&D last year! Their turnover is comparable to small nations' GNP. What's the story, why the panic?
    And what about the "is Sun good for Java"? What does this quesiton mean? "Does Java benefit from Sun?" How would you even begin to quantify this? Would Java be better if IBM owned it? We can only speculate. I like to speculate that in this case Java would be spelt with a small j, and elseif would have no space...
    Sorry if this sounds narky, I'm a bit sleep deprived and the damn c++ program I'm working on has memory leaks. This doens't happen me with Java! Is java good for programmers? This we can answer :)

    Only the carrier to whom the device is locked can unlock it.
    If you do not meet their requirements or they do not offer unlocking there is no official way to unlock the device.
    Who is your carrier?

    I'm going to be a senior this year and my school is switching over to the iPad for classroom activities. Which iPad is the best for taking notes, researching, studying, reading, etc?

    I Recommend the iPad Mini Retina, it's not to big, and not to small. It has the speed of the iPad Air due to it having the same 64 Bit chips. ( And it's a lot cheaper!!) I have one myself and it's perfect for my school work!

  • "Not sure when your phone is going to be here."

    So I pre-ordered the iPhone when it was first available, and was very happy with how quickly it got here. I enjoyed it for a day until the screen froze. Called up Verizon, who said they were very sorry for the inconvenience and with so many phone going out, they expect there to be some problems. Said I should expect my new one in 2-6 days. Well on the 6th day, call up Verizon to hear this: Oh it seems that the phone rep. entered your phone into the backordered phones, so we are not sure when yours will come in. We will however, keep you updated on the status.
    So, I get a lemon for a phone, get placed on backorder status, and am not without a phone in a job that requires a cell phone. Thanks so much.

    I still have the previous phone, but can't even answer a phone call. Besides, I'm not going to pay for the data package on a phone that can't even access the internet.
    You don't have to pay for the data package (unless your old phone is a model that requires one).  Just reactivate your old phone by dialing *228 and selecting option 1.  Then, go online to MyVerizon and remove any data package that you don't want.  It will be re-added automatically when you activate your replacement iPhone.  In the meantime, the old phone will be active on your line and able to call and text.

  • HT5510 I am so sad that Apple now is going downhill after so many great years; amongst mang other issues, can anyone tell me why my Mom's iPad 2 cannot get Siri/dictation...other than greed?  Or, other options for her, bc she'd benefit greatly, but cannot

    I realize that Apple does not HAVE to upgrade their old devices; I'm just truly saddened after so many years of loyalty, and finally convincing others who do NOT like change (ie my mom) of their products, that this happened when iPad 2 seemingly has same software capabilities as iPhone 4S, and my mom is a user who can GREATLY benefit from this. It just has her bummed out, which now has me bummed out, so in looking for an solution that is not buying more product (since they now have decided to release new product every 6 months that are hardly different from their old ones).
    Thanks!!

  • My girlfriend has a 4 year old mac book, and I am going to buy her a new sleeve for it, what would the inches likely to be? (she is away, and I can't check on her laptop)

    The question says it all. I found a laptop sleeve, but I don't know what the average size (in inches) of a 4 year old macbook. Is it about 10 or 12"?

    Correct.   All MacBooks ever made only came in 13" screen size models. 

  • Any SUN certified java programmers here?

  • The order is under my dads name and he will not be here to give his signature, (he is going to be here the next day though) are they going to come the next day and see if he is here or do we have to go pick it up somewhere? iPod touch

    Im not sure, if anyone knows please let me know , thanks!

    Generally, they will accept a signature from anyone at the delivery address (unless the person is obviouslly under age).
    For example, I frequently have stuff delivered to work, and the mail room signs for it, then I pick it up from the mail room later in the day (such as a package I'm having delivered tomorrow).
    It is also possible to contact the shipping service and pre-sign so they will leave the package.

  • No longer have service at home....I've lived here for 3 years and never had a problem until now.

    I have been having issues for the last couple of months now with getting service on my cell phone at my house. Meaning, my phone literally says, "NO SERVICE" where I've always had service bars. I can't even send or receive a text message at home. Never, have I experienced these issues before. I've lived in this house for 3 years and have always been able to talk on my cell phone and send and receive text messages, until now. At first I chalked the issues up to the storms we had been having. Assuming a Verizon tower had possibly been hit. After several more weeks passed with the issue being unresolved, I went into my Verizon store and explained the issues I have been having. The rep I was working with suggested that I back up my phone and do a system restart on my iphone to see if that would fix the problem. I followed his instructions and the issue was still unresolved. I then went back into my Verizon store and explained the issue to the same representative I worked with the first time. He said it sounded like it was more of a software issue than a Verizon issue. Since my contract was up and I was good to get a new phone I decided to upgrade to the iPhone 5c (therefore I lost my unlimited data which irks me). When I got home I was shocked to see that I was STILL having the same issues. No Service. Can't text. Can't call. At this point I'm ready to lose my mind. Why am I paying for a service that I am not getting? We left on our family vacation this same day, so when we FINALLY reached a point down the road where I could receive service, I called my Verizon store to express my UNDERSTANDABLE frustrations. They were extremely helpful and have been since day 1. I ended up talking to a different representative than the one who had been helping me. She asked me to explain my situation and the issues I have been having since she hadn't been helping me she wasn't aware of what was going on. Once I explained my situation to her, she asked me where I lived at. Once I told her where I lived she IMMEDIATELY knew what my issue was. She told me that Verizon QUIT paying to use the Nex-tec tower that is by my house. She told me I'm not the first person that lives in my area to come in to their store with these SAME ISSUES. She told me that I needed to contact Verizon and complain and that hopefully if all of us kept complaining, Verizon would resolve the issue. I am WRITING you a complaint because I cannot CALL you off of my cell phone unless I drive SEVERAL miles down the road to a point where I can get service. I live on a busy highway that intersects with another busy highway a few miles down the road in North Central Kansas. I also live 3 miles from a STATE PARK with a VERY BUSY LAKE that doesn't have ANY SERVICE. I have talked to several friends, family members, and neighbors in my area and surrounding towns that are having the same issue as me and were told the same thing. Lovewell State Park is very popular and MANY people spend their weekends there. We have always had service there, until now, as well. Verizon customers that attend Lovewell State Park and that live in the surrounding towns cannot even call 911 off of their cell phone if their is an accident because we have NO SERVICE ANYMORE. I've been with Verizon since they ought out Altell. I have never had any issues with Verizon until now. Please take care of your customers. I trust that you care that you took service AWAY from customers who having been paying you for your service for several years and that you will resolve the issue quickly. We want our service BACK. We want to get service that we PAY FOR. If you cannot resolve the issues that I (and so many others) are having, I will be forced to switch to a new provider. As of right now, Verizon is doing me no service. Please change that. We live in an area where there are many accidents due to the types of jobs and winter weather we have in this area. It is necessary that we are able to make phone calls. I know that I am not the first nor will I be the last in our area to complain about this issue. Please fix these issues. Again, this information came straight from our Verizon store. They are just as upset as we are about the situation. The store doesn't want to lose us as customers and we would feel bad doing that to them when they have been such great people to work with. If the issues are not resolved we will be left with no other choice.

        @farmwife25
    After reading your post, I can certainly understand your concerns with this situation.  I would love to assist you finding a resolution for your service issues in your home area.  First, I'll need to ask you a few questions to help me in resolving.
    In what zip code do you experience this problem?  You mentioned service problems at your home.  Do you get a signal when you're outside at this location?  Have you spoken with our Technical Support Team regarding this issue in the past?  And if so, was a resolution ticket filed for this issue on your behalf?  Please let me know so that I can further assist.  Thanks!

  • HT202570 My buisness address does not show up on apple maps as a correct address.  The address is 1351 summit drive jasper AL 35501 and we have been here for 8 years.

    I have been at my buisness for 8 years and the address does not show up as an address in apple maps on any of my devices.  How can I fix this? My address is 1351 summit drive jasper al 35501. 

    @Kilgore-Trout, there is no "contact us" at the bottom of the Apple Map. All I get is report the problem...move the pin, which I have done numerous times. Google maps gets it right & due to that fact, we have to tell vendors to NEVER use Apple Maps when getting directions for deliveries. I love apple, own all their products and now my BMW i3 is using their maps & I would love to have them be responsive.

  • Is Oracle Forms is going to its death in two years???

    Some people say, that Oracle is planning to kill Oracle Forms because it is "dead-borned" project.
    IS IT TRUE???

    meant to add....
    However, we recognise that Client Server support is important for our existing customer base, so 6i, in Client Server mode, will remain supported until 2006 (with extended support available until 2008). So, even if you are embarking on a fresh Client Server development now, it has a potential of 7 years of life under a supported product, and, as we know from our experience of the Forms 3.0 user base, potentially many years beyond that.
    We feel that the majority of our customer base is moving towards web deployment and this is where we must satisfy the demand. Yes, a large number of organisations run Client Server today, but most new developments are being aimed at web deployment and so new versions of Forms must and will address this market.
