    If the population of the ObservableList (independent of any UI considerations takes a long time, then you probably want to do the populations off the JavaFX application thread (e.g. via a javafx.concurrent.Task)).
    If you do populate the list in a Task, standard threading cautions apply in terms of not updating items in the scene graph off the JavaFX application thread and ensuring that the system is absent of race conditions, etc.
    Look over the documentation of http://docs.oracle.com/javafx/2.0/api/javafx/scene/control/Cell.html and that may help you.
    The JavaFX controls such as ListView have been carefully designed to exhibit high performance even when backed by extremely large lists (through the concept of virtualization explained in the Cell documentation). For example, if the backing list is updated but the portion of the list being updated is not within the currently displayed list contents, (I would hope) the update would be very efficient.

  • File & folder sharing with privileges on my network does not work. What is wrong?

    My Timecapsule is creating a network between my iMac with OS 10.7.5 and my Macbook Pro Retina OS 10.9.2. I am trying to setup a folder on my iMac with controlled access privileges to work as a server for others using the Macbook as a client. I followed different tutorials to the letter, but it did not work, I could not get the connection. Then I called the Apple help line. It turns out that just setting it up with a 'sharing only' account etc. in 'sharing ' in the 'system preferences' is not enough. One also has to set up the same priviliges in the 'get info' window of the folder directly at the same time...so a double setup. They could not explain properly why and there is no mention of this whatsoever in any tutorial I found on the internet. Anyway, I tried that and it still did not work. When I add the user in the 'get info' window and press enter, suddenly the user does not show up in the privilege box with the user name but instead a line saying something like "searching for user" and something small dudeling next to it......I called Apple again. After two agonizing hours on the phone where I was treated like an imbecile it turns out one has to somehow go through the address book ??? Why, I have no clue and how, I do not remember, but suddenly it worked.
    Anyway, now two month later I had to add a new user account to my Macbook and I need to give it access to my server folder on my iMac. Well same problem again. I cannot remeber what we did 2 month ago an cannot call Apple, because my service period has expired. I tried myself and got the dudle in the folders 'get info' window again. Then by mistake I deleted myself as the only administrator account on the Imac from the access privileges to that shaered server folder. When I tried to put my account back into the folders privilege settings I got the same message and the dudeling thingy there too. Frustrated I thought it is best to just re-start the computer.......that was the end of it all: Now the startup window does not show my account name and icon anymore, just two lines to fill in the account name and password. The upper line has an arrow pointing left, the lower for the password an arrow pointing right. I filled in the account name and the password....the dudle circle comes and nothing happens, it seems to crash. When I click on the arrows the sign-in lines disappear, only the three buttons for going to sleep, re-start and turn off at the bottom are the only items left on the screen. I tried 10 times to no avail. This is turning into a nightmare!! My account is the only user account on this iMac.......
    What am I doing wrong? Or what is wrong with my iMac?
    Why is there nothing mentioned about these issues in the tutorials or anywhere else? Why do the tutorials say it is so easy, when even the staff on Apple's helpline cannot figure it out without having lengthy side conferences with their co-workers and managers???
    Does anybody know what I have to do again with the address book to add this external 'sharing only' user account to the folder's privilege settings?
    I assumme I have to re-boot my computer tomorrow and restore it from the Time Capsule. How do I do that? I cannot log in????
    With the setup I had working for the last two month there were still issues with acces conflict to new subfolders and files inside the shared folder between me and the Macbook account user. I have read that the solution is to create a group and give the group access privileges to the folder. However, I could not find any details on the exact steps to follow. I need the exact steps, otherwise this will turn into the next nightmare. Where can I find this info.
    I would really appreciate your help with answers and solutions to these complex issues
    Thank you

    JJust had problem corrected due to frozen imac, now HP printer will not print.  Says it is not connected.  What do I do to fix it?

    To reset the printing system:
    Choose System Preferences from the Apple menu.
    Choose Print & Scan from the View menu.
    Hold down the Option key while clicking the "-" (Remove printer) button. If no printers are currently added, hold down the Control key while clicking in the box that appears above the "+" (Add printer) button, then choose Reset printing system… from the contextual menu.
    When you've done the above you'll need to re-add the printer by clicking the + (Add printer)

  • I can't play a bought video in iTunes, and VLC only plays it but no screen. And I have to athourize all the time but it does not help. What's wrong?

    Hi all.
    Just bought my first video from iTunes Store and should watch it with my son. I had to authorize, this and that for some time, but finally I got the video in my iTunes, but it was just a black screen. Nothing playing and no sound (of course). So I tried VLC and it was at least runing there, but no screen and no sound. Quick time said I had to authorize my iTunes acount first (which I had done several times before) and did it again with just the same result, nothing happening. What's wrong? I'm no geek so please help me out with this, I thought it should be easy piecy with a iMac and iTunes, well, hope it was a one in a million problem.
    Thanks

    Your Mail is not gone. The problem you are having following the upgrade to Leopard (10.5.6) from Tiger, is probably what has been covered by the support document at the link below:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2537
    If you also find any files named to include MessageSorting (which would mean you once have upgraded from a version of OSX earlier than 10.4), remove those, also, but never restore those.
    To find the correct location for the Mail folder, open a Finder window, click on the icon of a house in the Sidebar (this is known often as "Home"), click on Library in that Home user directory, and then to open the Mail folder found there.

  • I just downloaded Photoshop Elements 13 and IMPORT is not functional.    What is wrong?

    I just downloaded Photoshop Elements 13 and IMPORT is not functional.    I reinstalled the printer /scanner and still not functional.   My computer is recognizing the printer.   What is wrong?

    I guess the first thing you now need to do is to get the latest drivers for your printer because as you say you uninstalled it from your machine and now reinstalled it again.  I don't know why you thought printer should have been uninstall;led but anyway, please reinstall the driver and then see if it is recognized by your operating system and try scanning something as a test from outside the PSE13 before going back to PSE13 and trying to scan your real image.
    Please post back so that Barbara or R_Kelly can help you as I don't use Apple Mac.
