JDeveloper IDE Tool - Thank you Oracle/Sun and Java community

I am sure it has been done many times over within the JDeveloper community discussion but I felt compelled
to stop, think and acknowledge the efforts here.
To Oracle, Sun and others that have contributed to this software and resources a huge THANK YOU!
I started in this business as a COBOL programmer on the mainframe where the only option for you to learn
was to use a school or company mainframe to code. if you didn't have either your only
option was reviewing code in textbooks.
These tools are amazing for how much power they give those of us interested in furthering our skills but
limited in financial resources. The effort is staggering to me. Just lookng at the release notes and bug
fixes for the versions of this tool I am absolutely floored.
Your efforts are greatly appreciated. I hope that the open source concept continues. I applaud and urge
you to continue your efforts. You are all doing a wonderful thing really. In a time where the trend is to
charge charge charge for anything we do on our Droids and Iphones it is good to see a humane effort
flourish.

Always bear in mind that there is no such thing in life, called a free lunch.
I quote:
"Even if something appears to be free, there is always a cost to the person or to society as a whole even though that cost may be hidden or distributed.
For example, as Heinlein has one of his characters point out, a bar offering a free lunch will likely charge more for its drinks."

    Purchased a new desktop and when I try and download prior music purchases, I'm told I need to authorize my computer for the download.. Any ideas? Thank you.

    Have you authorised your iTunes account on that computer (this screenshot is from a Mac, but it should be similar if you are on a PC) :

  • Hi, I need to take my daughter off from our Apple account and set up her own. So, delete her from one account and create her own. Realize I sound imbecilic for not knowing how to do this. Any ideas? Thank you so much. Jules

    You don't have to take her off your account exactly: she needs to sign out from your account on her computers and devices. Then she can obtain an Apple ID at http://appleid.apple.com and use it to sign into System Preferences or Settings>iCloud.
    However, there are some issue about this. If she has been syncing her calendars and contacts to your account then the data will disappear from her devices, but remain on your account. Individual calendars can be exported  as .ics files and reimported into her account, but if she has her contacts mixed up with yours she will have to enter them individually in the new account (or export yours, import them into hers, and delete the ones she doesn't want.
    More intractable is the email issue. She cannot move an address from your account to hers, so if she has been using a alias on your account to have her own address she cannot transfer it. She will have to create a new email address.

    Are you using iCloud?
    If this were happening to me, the first thing I'd try is to remove the preferences files from your home library folder.
    Do you know how to do that?

  • Cannot create new folders on desktop. Cannot drag new items onto desktop. Desktop in Finder opens with Terminal. Not sure if this has anything to do with upgrading to Mavericks but I need help if anyone has ideas. Thank you.

    I can no longer create new folders on my desktop. The option to do that is now light gray on the drop down menu and can't be selected.
    I cannot drag new items onto desktop any longer either.
    The Desktop in Finder opens with Terminal.
    Folders and items on Desktop open and work normally.
    Not sure if this has anything to do with upgrading to Mavericks but I need help if anyone has ideas.
    Thank you.

    Take these steps if the cursor changes from an arrow to a white "prohibited" symbol when you try to move an icon on the Desktop.
    Sometimes the problem may be solved just by logging out or rebooting. Try that first, if you haven't already done it. Otherwise, continue.
    Select the icon of your home folder (a house) in the sidebar of a Finder window and open it. The Desktop folder is one of the subfolders. Select it and open the Info window. In the General section of the window, the Kind will be either Folder  or something else, such as Anything.
    If the Kind is Folder, uncheck the box marked Locked. Close the Info window and test.
    If the Kind is not Folder, make sure the Locked box is not checked and that you have Read & Write privileges in the  Sharing & Permissions section. Then close the Info window and do as follows.
    Back up all data.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    xattr -d com.apple.FinderInfo Desktop
    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
    Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    Paste into the Terminal window (command-V). You should get a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”). Quit Terminal.
    Relaunch the Finder.
    If the problem is now resolved, and if you use iPhoto, continue.
    Quit iPhoto if it's running. Launch it while holding down the option key. It will prompt you to select a library. Choose the one you want to use (not the Desktop folder.)

    A number of people have received similar messages in error. However their email doesn't usually get blocked. If you have confirmed that it is indeed blocked by sending yourself a test message, you will need to contact Support.
    If you currently happen to have AppleCare, either because you recently bought Apple hardware or have paid to extend the inititial period, you can contact them here:
    http://www.apple.com/support/icloud/contact/
    You will need the serial number of the covered hardware.
    If you are not covered by AppleCare, then - in common with other free email services - there is no free support and you may be asked to pay a fee. You should insist that this is a problem they have caused and you shouldn't be charged.

  • Oracle Linux and Java 7u10

    Hi all,
    I installed Oracle Linux Server 6.3 selecting "software Development System" (java 1.6.0 comes with it).
    but I need to use Java 1.7
    So I downloaded jdk-7u10-linux-x64.rpm
    when I try to install it, I get the following error.
    Unpacking JAR files...
         rt.jar...
    Error: Could not open input file: /usr/java/jre1.7.0_10/lib/rt.pack
         jsse.jar...
    Error: Could not open input file: /usr/java/jre1.7.0_10/lib/jsse.pack
         charsets.jar...
    Error: Could not open input file: /usr/java/jre1.7.0_10/lib/charsets.pack
         localedata.jar...
    Error: Could not open input file: /usr/java/jre1.7.0_10/lib/ext/localedata.pack
    I can't uninstall java 1.6 because other rpm uses it.
    Can someone tell me what the "proper" way to install Oracle Linux and Java 1.7 should be?
    OR is there a Oracle Linux Server 6.4 coming out soon with Java 1.7 as its default package set ;-)
    thanks in advance,
    c.w.

    You can ignore the errors. The files named in the error lines do not exist in the rpm package, but are there as .jar files
    The following works under Oracle Linux 6.3 x86_64 (and probably other versions).
    1. Open the following URL in a web browser on your PC:
    <pre>
    http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html
    </pre>
    2. Click the JDK download button, accept the license agreement and download the JDE rpm package.
    3. Copy the following file to your Oracle Linux server (SFTP):
    <pre>
    jdk-7u10-linux-x64.rpm
    </pre>
    4. Login as root and use the YUM utility to install the RPM package.
    <pre>
    # yum install ./jdk-7u10-linux-x64.rpm
    </pre>
    5. Register the new installed java version, then change your default Java:
    <pre>
    # alternatives --install /usr/bin/java java /usr/java/jdk1.7.0_10/bin/java 2
    # alternatives --config java
    </pre>
    Display your default Java version:
    <pre>
    # java -version
    java version "1.7.0_10"
    Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.7.0_10-b18)
    Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 23.6-b04, mixed mode)

  • Few people are "Oracle ACE" and "Java Champion"

    Few people are "Oracle ACE" and "Java Champion"
    What's whose icon ?:|
    I think that icon should not be only one.
    For instance,I am Pro (I have 570 points) and "Oracle ACE".
    Therefore I hope that My icons are "Pro" and "Oracle ACE".

    can't you create an icon with the Java character holding an Ace?It reminds me of award icons (achievements) one gets on Steam and Xbox Live. My favourite - the award of getting a fair number of WW2 tank commanders that pop head-out-of-turret, as an infantry rifleman (with a puny bolt action rifle). Satisfaction getting the commander of a crew that that hides inside the belly of an armoured beast, that tries to turn my comrades and me into roadkill or a 1000 pieces exploding bits (or pixels to be more accurate)... ;-)
    One option here could be a signature line - that lay bares one's claim to fame, knowledge and experience. This is often standardise by community agreement on some web forums (the gamer ones often include clan tags and titles with h/w specs). Or something like GeekCode.
    Never really fancied that myself - but it could be fun putting an Oracle based geekcode together. ;-)

    Back up all data.
    Triple-click the line of text below to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
    /Library/Internet Plug-ins
    In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder
    from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste into the text box that opens (command-V), then press return.
    From the folder that opens, remove any items that have the letters “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari, and test.
    The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can also interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it as well, if it's present.
    If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
    ~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
    If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again.

  • Everytime I open a comment tag 'pop-up,' the Thumb-Nail section opens, very annoying.  Have tried everything I can think of.  Any ideas?  Thank you.

    Every time (ALMOST) I open a comment tag 'pop-up,' the Thumb-Nail section opens, very annoying.  Have tried everything I can think of.  Any ideas?  No other problems elsewhere, either in Adobe or Word or my entire computer for that matter.  Very strange glitch.  Ran several deep virus checks - nothing.  Booted and re-booted.  Entered different ways into Adobe, no help.  Thought about my keyboard (wireless of course) might be doing it, but in other web-sites and in WORD - no problems.
    I use WINDOWS 8.1.  Also doubled checked my up-date status.  Is there a chance that this is a continuing problem that is still being encountered from the last major Adobe up-date?  Use Adobe for years with never a problem until the latest up-date.  Parting thought, maybe just my batteries in my keyboard are getting low, or a really low threshold virus of some sort, no idea.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thank you!   Charlie
