Is there any way in Firefox for android to use native handlers?

In Firefox for windows or Linux, I can register a URL handler (e.g. mailto:) but android takes this to a new level with intents which can register responders for individual URIs as well as for and mine types.
Are there any plans to natively support android intents (e.g. to handle a transition from twitter.com to the native twitter app), or perhaps an add-on to support something similar? I have already found https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/android/addon/open-native-app/ but it's a manual process, rather than an automatic one.

http is a website, Firefox browses websites. We are not planning on kicking people to the native app for such things. We do support loading resources that list helper apps. For example if you load a Google Maps page there is an Android icon in the address bar that will take that page info and pass it to the Google Maps app.

Is there any way to search for a term using the Firefox search field, and have the results automatically open in a new tab?

Is there any way to search for a term using the Firefox search field, and have the results automatically open in a new tab? When there was support for Google Toolbar, I was able to do this; now, whenever I want to search for something, I have to open a new tab to do it, and cut-and-paste my search into the search field in the new tab. I used to be able to highlight, drag, and drop something into the search field and have it automatically open in a new tab. This is enough for me to switch to Chrome . . .

Set a preference to have searches from the Search Bar (upper right) automatically open all searches in a new tab
#type '''about:config''' in the URL/Location/Address bar and press the Enter key
#if you see a warning, accept it (promise to be careful)
#Filter = '''browser.search.openintab'''
#in the lower panel, double click the item (or right-click and choose "Toggle") to change the value to "true"
#close the about:config tab and test
#See:

About Google toolbar............
Google decided that they will no longer produce the Google Toolbar for Firefox 5 and newer version. It is best to move on to other alternatives than to try any "hacks" to the toolbar that may or may not perform in the future. Future versions of Google toolbar will only work with IE7-9. Google Toolbar is not available on any other browser, even Google's own browser.

Yes; I see that I can add words to the dictionary so that firefox no longer flags them as wrong, but is there any way that Firefox will actually suggest the added words, so that if I do misspell them, they are pressented as suggestions?

Spell check not only underlines words that are not in its dictionary, but suggests words when the flagged words are right clicked. However, if words have been added to the dictionary by a user, it does not appear that spell check incorporates the new words into to the suggestions for proper spelling. As a result, if I misspell a word that I have added to the dictionary, I have to manually correct it, because the correct spelling that was added to the dictionary is not offered in the drop down list when the word is right clicked.

''is there any way that Firefox will actually suggest correct spelling''
Right click on the indicated word, and choose, the spelling, add to dictionary,
or close the right-click context menu to allow without changing anything.
You probably have other dictionary lists on your computer of words that you've already verified and added, open that list or a copy of it in Firefox and add the ones that show up as invalid using your better judgement that you have now than in the past.

Check the drive health with the free demo of SMART Utility.

Reformatting and zeroing out might keep a drive going a bit longer, but once bad blocks become noticeable, it's not a drive you should trust any longer.

Is there any way to get around having to use iDVD to burn DVD?

Is there any way to get around having to use iDVD to export FCE to DVD?
I've been trying to burn a FCE2 sequence to DVD. A friend of mine told me all I had to do was put a blank DVD in, click on the icon on the desk top, export the sequence to Quicktime and drag the QT sequennce into the DVD icon and click burn.
Well something happened! But there's nothing on the DVD!! What am I doing wrong? I loathe iDVD. i don't want to author. I just want to burn the project on a DVD. Please advise. Thanks.

If you export a sequence at full resolution to can burn it onto a DVD as a data DVD, but this is for transportation purposes only. At full resolution the DVD, especially as it fills up, will not have sufficient throughput to sustain good playback of the material. That's why the material is encoded into MPEG-2 for DVD authoring. If you want to make a DVD for set-top playback it has to be authored to include the DVD format structure. There is no way around that. If you don't like iDVD, take a look at Final Cut Studio, you might prefer DVD Studio Pro. Or you might what to look at Roxio's Toast. It has basic authoring capabilities. Personally I don't think direct playback hardware solutions (except for seriously expensive ones) produce acceptable quality, but that's just me.

Only an exclamation point shows up when I click a thumbnail in my iphoto folder. Is there any way to recover these photos by using the thumbnails?

Only an exclamation point shows up when I click a thumbnail in my iphoto folder. Is there any way to recover these photos by using the thumbnails? Please help. Thanks!

That exclamation mark is displayed when iPhoto cannot link to the original file. First make sure you are running a "managed" library by checking iPhoto's Advanced preference pane to make sure the checkbox to copy files into the library during import is checked.
Click to view full size
If it is checked you can try the following: make a temporary, duplicate copy of the library and apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
Fix #1
Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
Select the options identified in the screenshot.
Fix #2
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
Click on the Create button.
Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

is there any way else to do it without useing quicktime pro....hope apple fixes this in ios 7 the video should come out in landscape regardless of the way you hold your phone or if you start in portrait and go into landscape while recording

You used the data. Verizon can not see what it was sued for. However your phone can see whats apps used the data. go to settings-data usage- there will be a place that says data usage cycle. line the dates up with your cycle. then there will be a bar graph below that extend bother white bars one all the way to the left and one all the way to the right. after those are extended below that will be a list of apps, there should be one that used over 2 gb and that will show you what app used that data in her purse

With just ONE inatentive sweep of my finger one page of my note was disappeared! Is there any way it can be recovered without using the help of iCloud backup?

1. With just ONE inattentive sweep of my finger one page of my note disappered. Further more, the same page in my iPad was deleted automatically too! How could this happen? Is there any way it can be recovered without using the backup feature from iCloud? The data is vey important to me?
2. I havn't connect the power code to my iPad yet, the backup copy in the iClout was before the accident as I checked in iPad. Is there any way that I could open my notes in iCloud backup so that I can copy the missing page and move back to my iPad and iPhone?
Thanks a lot for any help!

Sorry, no. The only way to restore this note is to restore from a backup that contains it.

Is there any way to generate Gantt chart by using oracle 9iDS?

Is there any way to generate Gantt chart by using oracle 9i reports builder
Can you please send me the link or more information on oracle 9iDS.
Thanks

Hi,
Oracle9iDS itself doesn't support creating Gantt charts. The option oyu have is to use Oracle Graphics 6i, because there is no Graphics in 9i, and configure it to run with Oracle9i Forms. There exist a whitepaper at otn.oracle.com/products/forms that explains how to make Graphics 6i work with Forms 9i.

Is there any way to listen for OS-commands like LINUX/UNIX "kill myApp"?

Hello, world! ;)
I would like to get help on the following problem:
Situation:*
Implementing my first server-daemon I was wondering if there is any way to listen for OS commands/events affecting the application.
One particular handling I intend to implement is after an OS termination command (like *"kill myDaemon.jar"* on LINUX/UNIX) to shut down the daemon.
This would be really helpful, because in this way I would not just shut down the daemon brutally but being able to handle an event like this to shutdown the Thread pool, send all connected peers that the server/daemon will be down for a while, close all connections ...
Need help:*
Am I completely forgetting something which solves this problem really quick? :D
Is there any Listener Interface which I can use to achieve this?
Is maybe the JVM/JRE handling this and running garbage collectors?
Is there any site/tutorial/... focusing on problems like this?
Thanks in advance for any help on this subject!
JAVAnetic

Thanks, this was indeed very helpful.
I implemented a shutdownHook and it works like I hoped it would:
    Runtime.getRuntime().addShutdownHook(new Thread(new Runnable() {
      @Override public void run() {
        // shut down commands
    }));After typing *"kill process_ID"* in a terminal the shutdownHook is invoked (like mentioned before) and the shut down commands are executed.
Works fine.
Am happy. :D

Is there any way to wait for a value without using JDialog or JOptionPane?

I am implementing a dictionary program by detecting word in a JTextPane and asking a user to choose one of available meanings from JOptionPane or JDialog. The program runs under a while-loop until all dictionary words are detected or a user clicks cancel.
However, I don't want to use JDialog or JOptionPane because it is sometimes annoying to have a popup window on every detected dictionary word.
So, I use JList with Buttons on the same Frame as the JTextPane. However, now, the program does not stop when it detects a dictionary word. It just uses a default value of the JList for translating word to meaning.
Is there any way I can simulate the JDialog or JOptionPane without using it?
I mean I'd like to stopp the program temporary, wait for an answer from other components, and then continue to detect the next dictionary word.
Thank you.

I'm probably reading this all wrong, but instead of the while loop,
the method just looked for a dictionary word from a particular caretPosition,
so, to start, it would be findWord(0)
when found, add whatever to wherever, note the caretPostion at the end of the 'found' word, and method returns.
when the user selects whatever button, the button's actionListener also calls the method again, using the noted caretPosition
findWord(42);
so, it starts searching from 42 (instead of the start)
basically it is event driven
findWord sets the button/s
click a button starts findWord
