Just one click away from Wayback Machine's archives of current page (Request JavaScript codes for bookmarklet)

I wish I can click on a bookmarklet on the Bookmarks bar to display the Wayback Machine's search results for the current page. In other words, I wish there can be a bookmarklet that opens the following URL:
http://wayback.archive.org/web/*/'''''URL_of_current_page'''''
I know I can drag a bookmarklet to the Bookmarks bar, and then, from its righ-click Properties menu, change the Location text to the JavaScript codes which opens the above Wayback Machine's URL. I just know nothing about programming.
So, could someone assist me with the needed JavaScript?
Thanks.
PS: I know there are some add-ons that deals with WaybackMachine, such as "Resurrect Pages" or "Wayback Machine 20100602". But I have not found one that does what I want.

Thank you very much.
I hide the label text of this bookmarklet and use a Wayback Machine favicon for it. Now I have an icon on the Bookmarks bar, a click on which takes me to the old vesions of the current web page.
I will drink a glass of champaigne for that.
The Wayback Machine favicon I use is here:

How to restore *just one iTunes playlist* from Time Machine?

Hi all --
I'm pretty picky about my iTunes playlists. There are several main ones ("Jazz Lite," "R&B," "Jazz Traditional," etc. etc.) and these playlists can overlap in their coverage/share certain songs.
So last Sunday I realized that I had fat-fingered things and had accidentally deleted the R&B playlist.
If possible I'd like to surgically restore *just that R&B playlist* from Time Machine and include it among all of the other existing playlists.
Although I've searched around on the internet for an answer, everything that has turned up so far seems to involve:
- restoring ALL playlists from Time Machine
- older version of iTunes (I'm currently using 11.0.3)
Your help greatly appreciated!

For posterity's sake, since i had this issue too, i thought i'd post my solution.
Locate and save a copy, locally on your computer, of a library.itl file that would contain the playlist you need. I'd suggest saving to your desktop. name it so you'll recognize it as the old library file.
Quit iTunes if open, and relaunch, holding down the Option key immediately after
when prompted, select "Choose Library"
Find the file you saved in step 1. this will launch iTunes with all the old playlists and such. Don't worry, it doesn't touch the actual songs themselves, so nothing is lost of from your current library.
Find the playlist(s) you want, right click on them and export. save them as .txt file (again, suggest desktop for ease)
Once all playlists you want to restore are saved, quit iTunes.
Launch iTunes, again pressing Option immediately after
Select "Choose Library" and select the Music -> iTunes -> iTunes Library.itl file. This will restore iTunes to the most current copy of your library
Select File -> Library -> Import Playlist and find the .txt file for your playlist on your desktop. et voila!

IPhoto library Gone! (replaced in just one click w/o ever dragging 2 Trash)

iPhoto library gone / replaced in just one click (w/ o ever dragging anything to the trash)!
I currently own multiple PowerMacs all sharing the same high speed local network. All of them run the latest / Mac OS X.4.9 and have multiple HD’s (both internal and external) as well as iLife’ 06. And all of them also have iChatAV3 and are able to video chat one with the other at will while on the same local high speed network.
This is my very first iPhoto library nightmare since I’ve owned a mac. and yes I’ve always been conditioned to backup everything one wishes to keep. This particular scenario is no different. (altho my back up HD for one of the three G4 computers involved was a bit dated by at least 6 months).
This was essentially triggered via two separate iLife ‘06 apps , namely iPhoto and iChatAV3 (combined with at least an ounce of stupidity on my part). That combined with 2 people not communicating properly / being on the same page (or rather the same Folder) when working on the very same task. Hey... I do NOT claim to be an expert at this particular application even though I have used macs since apple first introduced the Apple IIe decades ago. So this does not stem from lack of experience but rather not thinking things thru entirely in terms of all the possible consequences of simple, yet catastrophic actions when it comes to replacing or authenticating one particular folder containing the entire iPhoto Library simply titled “pictures”.
Starts like this, ichatav is open on 2 of three macs and my teenage daughter asks me to send her a roll of pictures she downloaded into my computer (since it’s twice as fast as her own) from her digital still camera. Now she wants all 12 photos on her computer as well. So I drag all 12 photos to my desktop and place them in a folder titled “Jackies pics”. I drag this folder to her icon on my buddy list and ichat AV simply refuses to allow sending the entire folder and ask me to send them one at a time. That should have been my first clue. Strange I thought. Always worked well in the past. Why not now? So I tell her over ichatav that the app simply won’t allow me to send her the entire folder and that I’ll have to send them one at a time. Please make a new folder on your HD called Jackie’s pics. She agrees and creates a folder on her end called .... (you guessed it) ...... “pictures”...... to which she drags each of the 12 images I sent over our local network.
Little did she realize this newly created folder has the makings of an atomic bomb when it comes to importing the entire folder into iPhoto’s library on her own mac. A dialog box quickly materializes asking that she “authenticate” or hit cancel. So she ask me what to do. I said that’s fine, hit authenticate (assuming she titled it Jackies pics). BIG mistake! She hits authenticate and now she has the 12 images I sent her in iPhoto....BUT .... the 1600 or so originals in the entire iPhoto library quickly vanishes. Her entire iphoto library is now wiped out or rather replaced with this new folder. She asks me, what happened? And in less than 30 seconds she in complete tears. Over 2-3 years of her photos (all 1600 images) gone in the click of a mouse.
Today is father’s day .... and I remembered that I have a complete backup of her HD (even though it is a bit dated). So together, we managed to recover about 90% of the lost images. If anyone reading this knows how I can possibly recover the final 10% (most current photos) then please help us.
Bottom line: We were fortunate. This Father’s Day iPhoto Nightmare ended happily....
TIA

Just another update .... Today, my daughter was multitasking on her G4 powermac working within iPhoto as well as email account and last but not least the latest iTunes. As she opened this final app (and I mean "final").... her entire hard drive bit the dust after she saw the spinning beachball and hence attempted to force quit. (I should also point out we are having a heat wave in San Diego today ...which also may have contributed to this hardware issue mainly).
This time, I had a complete updated copy of her HD and simply cloned it to a new hard drive. Took me a few hours to troubleshoot, clone and install a new drive in its place. But all is working normally again (sure hope it stays that way this time).
Friendly reminder to those who read this post .....
BACKUP, BACKUP, BACKUP .... ESPECIALLY IN IPHOTO & ITUNES!

Whenever I enter full screen on any video (yt, and other video formats) it crashes everytime...EVERYTIME I click away from it weather it be on a different window windows task bar anything outside the video. It crashes even if I use shortcuts to get to a different window. Why is it doing this? I get no crash report my computer just freezes and then I have to go into task manager and end tasks and restart firefox. It is really annoying because I have 2 monitors and I can't do anything else without firefox crashing. Any help would be AWESOME! :)

DW CS6 - Spry collapsible panels - How to have panel close when you click away from it?

I know typically onmouseout is used to close other items, but I could not figure it out with the spry collapsible panel. I have the panel opening onclick and closing onclick, but I would really like for it to close when you click anything else on the page outside of the panel.
Thank you!

Sorry, I did not mean other collapsing panels close when you click away from it. I simply meant in general for the closing after clicking away function, you can use onmouseout. I was working on something with collapsing panels and I wanted it to show the information when you clicked on it, but when you click on another panel, they both remain open. I really want both to close. I believe accordion does this, but not quite what I am looking for either.
Here is a better example of what I would prefer: Houston Public Library
If you visit their page and click "Find it" a box pops down with information and then when you click anywhere else on the screen, it closes that box. When you click "Research," it closes the "Find It" box and opens the "Research" box. There is likely a much better way to do this, but I am pretty new to this.
Any assistance is very much appreciated.
Thank you!

OS x 10.7.2 hangs, resumes when clicking away from active window

I have a 2010 iMac i3 running 10.7.2 - configured as shown in the About pic.
Lately, it has become very slow and unstable - by that I mean that Safari is very slow, mail hangs and I get a beach ball multiple times.. I did a Disk verify and repaired some issues. I have also verified and repaired permissions. The problem mostly occurs in Safari and Mail - I either get a beach ball when surfing or entering information, but have noticed that it corrects if/when I click away from the active window and return. Mail does a similar thing - a new message will 'hang' in that it is translucent and I cannot enter anything, but if I click away from the active window, it will correct and I can continue. I appears to be intermittant and I cannot get it to happen on command. I checked the Activity Monitor and do not see any processes that are eating processor and I have plenty of free memory - currently up over 6 days and 0 page outs. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I do have a PC laptop running Win & and a 2011 MBA both on the same network (wireless) and neither have any lag/slow issues.
Thanks!

You mentioned you have "plenty of free memory" but did not state how much is Free when you are getting beach balls. Leave Activity Monitor open and click the System Memory tab. OS X likes to have approximately 500MB or more of FREE RAM, if you get a beach ball and the FREE RAM is in the 500MB or less range then you would benefit by upgrading the RAM.
I would also STRONGLY recommend reading the XLab's Spinning Beach Ball of Death article, it's a valuable resource for troubleshooting this issue.

How do I just backup just one user account on Time Machine?

Hello everyone,
I've moved to a new computer with Mountain Lion and didn't have my backup disc available when I first set up the computer. Now, after restoring from my backup, I have two user accounts that I am trying to combine as per instructions here. I know it's challenging and I may have to reinstall the OS and start from scratch, so I'd like to backup before I do it. Unfortunately I haven't plugged in Time Machine since I've used Migration Assistant, because I didn't know if I could or if it'd overwrite my old data.
How can I back up the new computer without creating two user accounts (the ones I'm trying to combine) on my external drive? And please don't recommend just buying another external hard drive. Any advice is appreciated.
Thanks.

Aside from starting over, losing whatever you've done on the new machine, see Pondini's Transferring files from one User Account to another. If you haven't done much and can afford to lose that data, I suggest starting over, following the steps in Pondini's Setup New Mac guide. That should result in just one user account.

Whenever I hit BACK the history list stays open below it until I click away from it in the window.

It used to disappear once you moved the mouse away from the list/back button but it seems to stay up almost every time now until I hit a key/mouse button etc. I tried to take a screenshot but when I hit print screen the drop down list disappears.

Or double click on the bar to the far right and it will reset.

Restore one hard disk from Time Machine backup

Is it possible to restore only one disk from Time machine backup? I have a SSD with OSX 10.8.5 on it while user folders are on a separate 4TB hard drive. I also have a Time Machine volume for backups. Yesterday the user drive failed beyond repair, but fortunatly I do have a recent backup. When I tried to resotre following insructions provided in the Time Machine manual, it does not give me an option to resore a specific disk from the backup, and tries to resotre only the System disk backup, in this case the SSD. Is there a way to restore a disk on which no system is installed?

How can I delete just one little picture from my new ipad2 ?

This is my 1st Apple product an Ipad2. How in the world do you delete just one picture at a time??
Thank you in advance.

Only photos taken with the iPad, copied onto it via the camera connection kit, or saved from emails/wesites etc can be deleted directly on the iPad - either via the trashcan icon in the top right corner if viewing the photo in full screen, or via the icon of the box with the arrow coming out of it in thumbnail view. Photos that were synced from your computer are deleted by removing them from where they were synced from and then re-syncing.

Oracle ADF - multiple requests to server for just one click

Hi,
I am using jDev 11.1.1.4.0
In my application when I want to navigate from one page to another,
Two requests for server are,
one for current page and other for requested page.
The result is fine,
but why does these 2 requests?
I have used filters, one of those is,
<filter>
 <filter-name>SessionCheckFilter</filter-name>
 <filter-class>sample.webapp.filter.SessionCheckFilter</filter-class>
</filter>
<filter-mapping>
 <filter-name>SessionCheckFilter</filter-name>
 <url-pattern>/faces/*</url-pattern>
</filter-mapping>At first I thought it is happening because of URL pattern, i.e. both pages have same URL pattern.
But I have more than 2 pages which has same pattern.
Appreciate your help.
Thanks,
Madhav

I click a link and it opens on the current page and a new tab, how do i keep the first tab on the current page and only have the link clicked on appear in the new tab?

I go to click a link for any site and it opens the link in the current page and a new tab. I only want it to open the link in the new tab. I want to keep the original tab what it was.

you can try to write some web driver to do this particular job for you, one such driver is Selenium. know more about it at https://code.google.com/p/selenium/downloads/list.
But this thing will need a good programming skill. Otherwise you have Adblock plus addon (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/adblock-plus/), you can try this. you can also contact its developer to include this particular facility also in this add on

Restore one bookmark folder from Time Machine

Hello
I would like to know if it is possible to restore one folder of bookmarks using Time Machine. At some point, the urls of all the bookmarks in one of my bookmark folders in Safari appear to have been deleted. The descriptions of the bookmarks are there, but the icons next to the bookmarks are just empty boxes, and when I try to navigate to the bookmarks, nothing happens. I only have this problem with one folder -- all others are working normally. From the Apple Discussions I can see how to restore all bookmarks, but this would delete all the changes I have made to all bookmark folders since the date of the bookmarks.plist file I would use to restore. The bookmarks in this file do not appear to be organized into folders, and I cannot tell what they are pointing to just from their filenames. I believe that I tried to sort the bookmarks in this folder by name, by dragging onto the desktop, sorting, and redragging back to Safari.
Any help would be most appreciated.

As V.K. says, you can't do that . . . not exactly, anyway.
What you can do, is restore the file to an alternate location, such as your desktop (once you locate the file in TM, click the "gear" icon in the Finder window's toolbar and select +Restore <item> to..,+ then you'll get a prompt for a destination.)
Then choose Safari > File > Import Bookmarks and select the restored file. That will restore them to a separate folder, shown in the bookmark sidebar as +Imported mm/dd/yy.+
Then you can move a folder or individual bookmarks to the current bookmarks bar folder.

Falsely accused of installing 3rd party RAM into my macbook pro while just a month away from my warranty expiring

Hey, this is my first "post" here on Apple discussions.
Since i bought my Macbook pro in October 2011, my macbook has been given for servicing many times. We've always used the Authorised Service centre here in Singapore (QCD Technologies), and I can swear I have never taken my laptop to a third party. However, when I gave my laptop in for servicing yesterday because it wasn't booting up and instead beeped 3 times every time I tried to switch it on (suggesting faulty RAM), they told me that they can't work on the laptop until we talk to Apple because they claim that the RAM installed is not original (suggesting that we used a 3rd party for my macbook's repair). Needless to say we were extremely appalled because we have never consulted a 3rd party, and this makes it extremely clear to us that either QCD or Apple slipped up in their servicing/production without accounting for changing the RAM or are simply lying. If they don't have a log for it, then we know they made a mistake, however the problem is they can easily use this as an excuse to evade costs on their part.
Has anyone else experienced this? What should I do from here on? I need my laptop for college quite urgently and It's very convenient that Apple is doing this just 1 month before my warranty after extending it, expires finally.

Have you taken the computer to the same repair place every time it was repaired? If so, suggest to them that they must have installed third party RAM. And, another fact to consider: Apple does not manufacture RAM - it always uses third party RAM. They do change suppliers, so different machines may have different brands of RAM. And, as mentioned: installing RAM does not void your warranty - you may want to point that out to the repair place as well. Although, to be fair, a senior Applecare rep once told me to reinstall the original RAM before sending in the machine for repair so no one could possibly blame the problems on third party RAM.
You can easily install RAM yourself; use one/both of the links provided by leroydouglas to purchase the correct RAM as three beeps at startup usually mean there is a problem with the RAM.
