Is there a way to create/edit registry keys with Java?

I'm writing a console app and I'd like to have it so the users can change values in the registry. I'm not just talking about app keys I want any key. Is there a way to do this with Java?

Maybe a forum search on "Windows registry" would turn up some useful things. You're not the first to ask this. You might save yourself and everyone else some time if you'd simply do that.

  • Is there a way to create editable tags in a dashboard section?

    Is there a way to create editable tags in a dashboard section?
    The requirement is - User should be able to enter comments in a edit box for a section in a dashboard and save it. For other users, this should show up as a non-editable comment while for the user it should be editable box.
    Example: In a report in a section on dashboard for Supplier Trends, a Purchase Manager should enter the commments -" This weeks trends show no issues. Next week watch out for supplier X". For everyone other than him, this should show up as comments.
    1. Is there a way to achieve this functionality?
    2. Can this be achived using write back option?
    3. Or will this require java scripting?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    If you want to have a better experience of your music files, how about just use WMP to enjoy all the songs, you can
    sort by Artists or Album or whatever you like. There, you can have a better and easier way to organize all your music
    files.
    For Windows Explorer, did you mean
    medium size icons in artist, while list icon in albums, you can just organize as you want like the following screenshot.
    If I'm missing something, please free contact me.

  • Is there a way to create SQL Dev reports with validated binds?

    Is there a way to create SQL Dev reports with validated binds similar to the way user defined extensions can have <prompts> with a <value> that is a SQL statement returning a list of possible values?
    This sure would make select appropriate values for binds in reports easier and less error prone.

  • Is there a way to create a custom screensaver with pics/slides that display for different amounts of time?

    Is there a way to create a custom screensaver with pics/slides that display for different amounts of time? Or even add a "video slide" into the screensaver?
    My business has 3 TVs displayed in our lobby, each with its own apple TV and they are all linked to the same photo stream. Currently the Atv screensaver displays the photostream pictures of our products for the default 3 seconds. We just added pics/slides that now display messages and useful info for our customers but I want that info to be displayed for a longer period of time than the pictures to give people a chance to read it.
    I tried using flickr and powerpoint as a work around but no luck.  I created a slide in powerpoint with play length of 15 secs and saved it as a wmv file.  I added that file to a "screensaver" set in flickr and pointed the Atv screensaver to that flickr set.  It still displays everything, pics and the wmv file at the default 3 sec.
    I know I can increase the duration of all pics in the screensaver to display for longer but the goal is to have the pics display at 3 secs and the info slides to display at 15 secs.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    No that's not possible.
    If you have any suggestions that you think might enhance the Apple TV you can send Apple your feedback here 

  • Is there any way to create a file compatible with Premiere Pro

    Is there any way to create a file in Premiere elements that is compatible with Premiere Pro and that can be used in Premiere Pro

    Consternation
    The important information that I do not see mentioned nor offered by you.
    1.What version of Premiere Elements are you using and on what computer operating system it is running? What version of Premiere Pro do you want to use?
    The Premiere Pro Import Supported Formats seem to indicate that it will accept the Premiere Elements project.prel (project file) on Windows Only.
    Adobe Premiere Pro Help | Supported file formats
    This may or may not be possible depending on damaged projects or outdated elements.
    2. If you want to export your Premiere Elements Timeline to a file saved to the computer hard drive and subsequently import that into your Premiere Pro version, that "should" work. You would go to the Premiere Elements Publish+Share/Computer/ and make a selection based on what the Premiere Pro Import Supported file formats are and what you need. I can help you with that. But, details first.
    But, just a "beware"...when you get to Premiere Elements 11 or 12 (if that is the version involved) Publish+Share/Computer/ there are several categories, but all you see is Adobe Flash Video, MPEG, and AVCHD. The rest of the list that includes AVI and QuickTime which both need to be scrolled to all of the time to see them, not just sometimes, with the thin scroll bar to the right of the list of choices. You can export files
    with AVI file extension, under Publish+Share/Computer/AVI
    with MOV file extension, under Publish + Share/Computer/QuickTime
    And, if you do not have QuickTime installed on your computer with Premiere Elements, you are not going to have presets for the QuickTime export.
    Remember, there is more to an export than just its file extension. Know your other export properties as well.
    In many cases, you can customize the export settings to suit your requirements.
    Problems will exist if you are trying to go from Premiere Elements Windows to Premiere Pro Mac or vice versa.
    I would be glad for the opportunity to help you with this issue, but details are needed.
    Looking forward to your follow up.
    Thanks.

  • Is there a way to create 'Book Color's with CS Extension Builder?

    Dear all
    Is there a way to add a spot color with color mode "Book Color" as those from the swatch libary, the PANTONE color book for example.
    I see those Book Colors have fixed Lab Values and cannot be changed. So they would be fixed for the user.
    Is there a way to do this?
    thanks

    One thought is to do a pre- or post-build action VI that exports all of the revs (like you see in VI props>>revision) for the discrete VI's in the project .  You can set it to increment the rev every time the VI is saved. If the revs are the same you know nothing has changed but if they're different you won't know if the thing that's changed is significant. 
    Another thought is maybe TortoiseSVN or similar could keep track of what's-changed-and-why for you but I've never use it.  
    While that would serve the purpose of showing that the source hasn't changed (although I'm not so sure that relying onrev numbers is the best way to go about it - CRC check per file is probably better), it still doesn't gurantee that the build works.
    I just think that the whole process probably burns up several thousand dollars worth of unnecessary testing, V&V and paperwork.

  • Is there a way to create shared iTunes playlists with iCloud?

    For instance, if I were to create a playlist called "Playlist X" on my Macbook Pro, is there a way for iCloud to put that same playlist in my iMac's iTunes library? And if I were to add a song to the playlist on the iMac, could it appear in the playlist on the Macbook? This would be much more convenient than having to update two different playlists manually.

    This doesn't make sense. ...juat sayin'
    Location services are a part of your iOS device (or Mac). You don't "turn on" location services with iCloud. You can visit http://www.icloud.com and use Find My iPhone to see the location of the device if you want (assuming you have enabled this from the iPhone first).

  • Is there any way i can edit downloaded songs with this program?

Is there any way to do this with GarageBand? or if not is there another program that is already on my mac or one that I can download? any help would be greatly appreciated

    please don't post multiple thread with the same question, see the first thread you started.

  • Is there a way to create a slideshow viewable with a DVD player?

    Hi there, is there amongst the Apple programs (or else) something that would allow me to show my digital photos on TV with a DVD player? Manually commanded with the remote, or with auto time lapse, fading or transitions?

    I tested both Photo Magico and iDVD. Both produce a nice slideshow with good image quality when previewed on the computer. PhotoMagico has some really professional grade blending and zooming effects, and allows placement of multiple sound tracks, which is not possible with iDVD where you just drop one file and it plays in buckle.
    The problem with both is that when the slide show is encoded, it looses too much quality! Images loose their detail, their colour depth, and they flicker inacceptably. The worst is with PhotoMagico who sends the already compressed file to iDVD to be compressed again and burnt. The loss of quality from the very neat preview to the resulting DVD is enormous. Sent to Toast Titanium, it's a little better but aliasing effects are still very annoying.
    I then tried a slideshow made directly in iDVD. The quality is merely acceptable, still not professional. The images are so compressed that they loose their details, and the edges of the frames and every straight line in the images flicker...
    Compressing an original 5 Gb slideshow made of JPEG files to 1,5 Gb seems an enormous rate of compression. Is this the way it is with those programs, or have I missed some settings somewhere? Is there no way to preserve the initial image size when passed to DVD? Alternatively, would the pro version DVD Studio Pro have more flexibillity? It's there on my computer, but the interface is turning me away! ...
    Thanks again for any hints!

  • Is there a way to open/edit files made with Microsoft Publisher on my new Mac?

    I recently upgraded to a Mac from a Dell and I have documents that I made with Microsoft Word and Publisher that I still need to be able to use with my Mac but I can't figure out how to open them with it. Is there a program that I need to download?

    Word documents from your PC will open directly in Word for the Mac. If you have the ability to save your Publisher documents from the PC in PDF format, they can be converted from PDF to Word format and emailed back to you by this web site, free of charge:
    http://www.pdftoword.com/
    Note that not all features of the resulting Word files will be as completely editable as they were in Publisher, but they should look pretty much the same and open easily on the Mac.

  • Is there a way to create a text (key word) field that is searchable to help retrieve photos more quickly

    I would like to create a text field associated and linked to each photo in my iPhoto library so that I can more quickly retrieve photos. I would also like to have a field that describes what was taken for each photo that that information might be printed when printing a photo.

    You can do what you want by printing the photos on a contact sheet.  Add the keywords to the photos anb the description to the Description field in the Info tray at the right.  Select the Contact list as the layout to print, select the no. of columns  and, under settings, select Keywords and Description.

  • Is there a way to create a collection based on the "previous import"?

    is there a way to create a collection based on the "previous import"? that would make it easy to mobile sync the last import to my ipad, and do further picking/rejecting while away from my laptop.

    well, yes, of course i could do it that way. i guess i wasn't specific enough. is there a way to create a smart collection, with the photos in the "previous import" as members of the smart collection.  earlier i mentioned about using this smart collection to mobile sync with my ipad, to do further flagging.
    so my intention, use a smart collection to mobile sync with my ipad, and the smart collection to include the photos from my previous import.
    i guess another way to ask the question, is there a way to create a smart collection, by using some rule or condition in the smart collection, to automatically include previous import photos.
    the documentation says that "previous import" is a collection, even though it shows up in the catalogue side bar section. but i see no way to choose that collection when making a smart collection.
