Looking for a bit of advice... (UK)

I'm going to be moving into a new place shortly, the house currently has a BT Voyager Router/Modem, with the USB port connecting the household PC. The ethernet port isn't used, so I could use that to connect my iBook, but my bedroom is at the other end of the house, with would restrict my use somewhat.
I'm now looking into working wirelessly.
Admittedly, I'm a little naive and new to the wireless set up, so I was wondering if any of you better qualified users could advise me on the most beneficial option to persue.
Does the Airport Extreme have the ability to plug into an existing modem? Like the one in my new house.

Yes.
You can plug an Airport Base Station into the ethernet port of your BT Voyager Modem/Router.

Hi looking for a bit of free anti - virus and firewall for osx 10.8.2

hi looking for a bit of free anti - virus and firewall for osx 10.8.2 any pointers also any one used Mac cleaner ?

1. This comment applies to malicious software ("malware") that's installed unwittingly by the victim of a network attack. It does not apply to software, such as keystroke loggers, that may be installed deliberately by an intruder who has hands-on access to the victim's computer. That threat is in a different category, and there's no easy way to defend against it. If you have reason to suspect that you're the target of such an attack, you need expert help.
2. All versions of OS X since 10.6.7 have been able to detect known Mac malware in downloaded files. This feature is transparent to the user, but internally Apple calls it "XProtect." The recognition database is automatically updated once a day; however, you shouldn't rely on it, because the attackers are always at least a day ahead of the defenders.
The following caveats apply to XProtect:
It can be bypassed by some third-party networking software, such as BitTorrent clients and Java applets (see below.)
It only applies to software downloaded from the network. Software installed from a CD or other media is not checked.
3. Starting with OS X 10.7.5, there has been another layer of built-in malware protection, designated "Gatekeeper" by Apple. By default, applications and Installer packages downloaded from the network will only run if they're digitally signed by a developer with a certificate issued by Apple. Software certified in this way hasn't actually been tested by Apple (unless it comes from the Mac App Store), but you can be reasonably sure that it hasn't been modified by anyone other than the developer. His identity is known to Apple, so he could be held legally responsible if he distributed malware. For most practical purposes, applications recognized by Gatekeeper as signed can be considered safe.
Gatekeeper has, however, the same limitations as XProtect, and in addition the following:
It can easily be disabled or overridden by the user.
A malware attacker could get control of a code-signing certificate under false pretenses, or could find some other way to evade Apple's controls.
For more information about Gatekeeper, see this Apple Support article.
4. Beyond XProtect and Gatekeeper, there’s no benefit, in most cases, from any other automated protection against malware. The first and best line of defense is always your own intelligence. All known malware circulating on the Internet that affects a fully-updated installation of OS X 10.6 or later takes the form of so-called "trojan horses," which can only have an effect if the victim is duped into running them. The threat therefore reduces to a battle of wits between you and the malware attacker. If you're smarter than he thinks you are, you'll win.
That means, in practice, that you never use software that comes from an untrustworthy source. How do you know whether a source is trustworthy?
Any website that prompts you to install a “codec,” “plug-in,” or “certificate” that comes from that same site, or an unknown one, is untrustworthy.
A web operator who tells you that you have a “virus,” or that anything else is wrong with your computer, or that you have won a prize in a contest you never entered, is trying to commit a crime with you as the victim. (Some reputable websites did legitimately warn users who were infected with the "DNSChanger" malware. That exception to this rule no longer applies.)
“Cracked” copies of commercial software downloaded from a bittorrent are likely to be infected.
Software with a corporate brand, such as Adobe Flash Player, must be downloaded directly from the developer’s website. No intermediary is acceptable.
5. Java on the network (not to be confused with JavaScript, to which it's not related) is a weak point in the security of any operating system. If a Java web plugin is not installed, don't install one unless you really need it. If it is installed, you should disable it (not JavaScript) in your web browsers. Few websites have Java content nowadays, so you won’t be missing much. This setting is mandatory in OS X 10.5.8 or earlier, because Java in those obsolete versions has known security flaws that make it unsafe to use on the Internet. The flaws will never be fixed. Regardless of version, experience has shown that Java can never be fully trusted, even if no vulnerabilities are publicly known at the moment.
Follow these guidelines, and you’ll be as safe from malware as you can reasonably be.
6. Never install any commercial "anti-virus" or "Internet security" products for the Mac, as they all do more harm than good. If you need to be able to detect Windows malware in your files, use the free software ClamXav — nothing else.
Why shouldn't you use commercial "anti-virus" products?
Their design is predicated on the nonexistent threat that malware may be injected at any time, anywhere in the file system. Malware is downloaded from the network; it doesn't materialize from nowhere.
In order to meet that nonexistent threat, the software modifies or duplicates low-level functions of the operating system, which is a waste of resources and a common cause of instability, bugs, and poor performance.
By modifying the operating system, the software itself may create weaknesses that could be exploited by malware attackers.
7. ClamXav doesn't have these drawbacks. That doesn't mean it's entirely safe. It may report email messages that have "phishing" links in the body, or Windows malware in attachments, as infected files, and offer to delete or move them. Doing so can corrupt the Mail database. The messages should be deleted from within the Mail application.
ClamXav is not needed, and should not be relied upon, for protection against OS X malware. It's useful only for detecting Windows malware. If you don't need to do that, avoid it. Windows malware can't harm you directly (unless, of course, you use Windows.) Just don't pass it on to anyone else.
8. The greatest danger posed by anti-virus software, in my opinion, is its effect on human behavior. When people install such software, which does little or nothing to protect them from emerging threats, they get a false sense of security from it, and then they may do things that make them more vulnerable. Nothing can lessen the need for safe computing practices.
9. It seems to be a common belief that the built-in Application Firewall acts as a barrier to infection, or prevents malware from functioning. It does neither. It blocks inbound connections to certain network services you're running, such as file sharing. It's disabled by default and you should leave it that way if you're behind a router on a private home or office network. Activate it only when you're on an untrusted network, for instance a public Wi-Fi hotspot, where you don't want to provide services. Disable any services you don't use.

IPhoto user looking for a bit more editing ability

I love iPhoto but I wish I could extract parts of pictures to go on other pics. Then I use a cloning tool to fix. I can't stand Adobe Elements is their any other program out their that people are using for this kind of editing. Aperture?

I don't think that Aperture is what you're looking for. Try Graphic Convertor

Looking for a web font - advice please

Hi, I know this isn't a DW question, but I'm hoping somebody might be able to guide me.
I'm looking for a font (preferably on google fonts) that resembles Edwardian Script. If anybody knows off the top of their head a font that is similar, could you advise me please?
Thanks.

Most hobbyists and bloggers sites could probably fly under the radar with unlicensed fonts. But commercial web sites could be in for a whole heap of litigation woes. It's not worth the risk for something so trivial.
Please cite a case where a commercial website was sued for violating the fonts license? In UK Harrods tried to sue a coffee shop for using Harrods fonts and they lost with heavy legal costs. Fonts can never be patented and people are free to use whenever they can.
Some bully boys will try anything but people have to stand for their rights. I am currently in dispute with easy Jet because I have registered one website with name like easy XXXXX. Now they tried to bully me for using the word easy and I challenged them to sue me. Their solicitors wrote to me and intimidating me and I won the first round. They are appealing and so the case continues. The court has decided that I should not promote the website until the appeal is heard but in the meantime, I have notified easy jet the revenue I am losing because of this restrictions. The court is aware of this and if I win the case, I shall be entitled to millions of pounds in compensation due to lost revenues.

Looking for 64 bit version of firefox, pre-release or Beta ok

I have Win7 Pro 64bit. Was having issues with continuous crashing of flash. I installed Adobe Flash Square version10 64bit with Firefox version4, reduced # of flash crashes.
When firefox pushed out version 5, I installed it & the browser kept dragging/crashing all over again. looked up Adobe Flash Square to see if any info avail, Adobe had Adobe Flash Square version11 64bit, so I uninstalled version 10 prior to installing version11 per Adobe instructions. Although it has helped, it is not where it was prior to installing Firefox 5.
I have tested Firefox 5 with the current Adobe Flash 32bit release as well, and what can I say, it's not work the effort on my 64bit system. for some reason this combo maxes out my cpu (2.8 dual core) & memory (4 gb + virtual), causing me to hard boot my system.
I understand Firefox devs are working on a 64bit version for Windows. I would like to volunteer to test it. I have many years of SW design & QA experience so any bugs I find I will fully document.
The 64bit version of IE works well with the 64bit Flash, lots better than 32bit version, but I prefer to use Firefox or Chrome (I often utilize both simultaneously, each on own screen).
Please let me know if a 64bit version of Firefox is available (pre-release/beta ok) & if it is not is there an expected availability date?
Thank you in advance,
Verta Tannehill

Nightly is a pre-release testing version of Firefox: bleeding edge and not necessarily stable. It is Firefox -- a rose by any other name, and all -- but it is buggy, as all testing software is (I'm using it right now). New Firefox versions are born from Nightly, so when a 64-bit version of Firefox is released, it will have come from Nightly development. Use it for general browsing and send feedback (Tools -> Options -> Advanced -> General) and you will be helping to beta test a new baby Firefox.

Looking for 64 bit Windows version of release 9.x of WebLogic

I'm trying to find a 64 bit version for Windows of any 9.x release of WebLogic. The only 9.x release I can find is 9.2.3 in 32 bit. Ideally, I'd like version 9.1, but any later than 9.1 will do, as long as it's 64 bit and Windows.
Can anyone help me?
Thanks

Choose "Oracle BEA"
Then either x64 or Itanium
Then click on the link for the one you want, say: BEA WebLogic Media Pack for Microsoft Windows x64 (64-bit)

Hi, I am looking for a bit of advise

I had a major meltdown on my MacBook Pro earlier in the year and had to have a new hard drive fitted. I had all my files and software backed up which I'd used to restore my system. Even though I've done this, I am still having problems with the Mac being flaky, so I want to go back to basics and do a complete fresh install of all my software including my Adobe CS6 Master Collection Suite - as I am reinstalling this on the same computer do I still need to deactivate the software first before I wipe my drive clean?

Thanks for the confirmation - I thought I might have to deactivate the software, but was unsure. I've downloaded the cleaner tool and will back everything up to Time Machine before I start. Just a quick question will I still need to run the cleaner if I am starting from scratch (I am planning on doing a clean install on my Operating System 'Maverick') or would you advice to do the cleaner no matter what as a precaution?

MacBook pro not starting. LOTS of issues trying to login. Looking for any kind of advice, I'm at a loss..

Basically my Macbook pro isn't starting up correctly. Every time I start it up, I get a loading bar. Once the bar is finished, the computer just shuts off. Sometimes when it loads without the bar - It instantly takes me to OSX Utilities instead of the normal login screen. From there, when i attempt to verify my Macintosh hard drive in Disk Utility, I get either one of two errors. First one being "incorrect number of thread records" and "Invalid volume file count". Once it finishes verifying, and I try to repair it, it says "Disk Utility can't repair this disk. Back up as many of your files as possible, reformat the disk, and restore your backed-up files". I have no time machine backups or a way to get into my computer to back anything up. Also, in disk utility, my hard drive will go from being greyed out to not being greyed out sporadically. If I have to erase everything on my hard drive to have a working computer then so be it. I just don't know if that's 100% what I have to do yet. I've tried every solution I've found to no avail. I don't have a second Mac or an external hard drive so i'm feeling beyond hopeless, especially with the fact that the nearest Apple store is hours away. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

The OWC web site shows a number of HDD options and prices. Other vendors can provide the same products. This should give you an idea what is available and the approximate cost:
http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/hard-drives/2.5-Notebook/
Installing a HDD is quite easy. Select your MBP from this list and watch the video:

You will need a #00 Phillips and a #6 Torx drivers for the installation.

Ever since downloading and opening Firefox 4 beta, when I try to launch 3.6.8, I get an error message saying that Firefox is already running; it is not. I have removed 4.0 beta from the computer, but don't know where else to look for any bits and pieces.

I need to restart the computer in order to launch FF 3.6.8. Also, in Dreamweaver CS5, I have defined FF 3.6.8 as my default browser, but when I try to view a page in FF, I get the same message that FF is already running. Where else do I need to look to find hidden files that are causing this?

Did you uninstall the Firefox 4.0 beta version ?
If you did then did you remove the personal data or otherwise removed to Firefox profile folder ?
Make sure that you still have a (default) Firefox profile folder.<br />

Data binding in swing (looking for some pattern or advice)

My primary window class looks something like this:
public class PrimaryWindow extends JFrame {
   private final Controller controller;
   // GUI components definition code
   public PrimaryWindow () {
           // GUI components initialization code
           // GUI components controller installation code
   private class Controller implements XXX, XXX, XXX {
         public void propertyChange(PropertyChangeEvent event) {
               if (OPEN_NEW_DIALOG.equals(event.getPropertyName())) {
                   SomeDialog dialog = new SomeDialog(/* Some data is sent to the dialog */);
                   dialog.setVisible(true);
}The problem I have here seems to be a classic one, but i'm not sure how to solve it.
When my controller receives OPEN_NEW_DIALOG event it sends some data into the dialog that is showed up the user. When user performs some actions I do not know what is the best way to send that data back to the controller.
Yes there are millions of ways of doing this but i'm not sure which option is better, which one is more scalable and maintainable as well? In future I might have a dozen of dialogs and rather complex data structure they deal with, so what is the best way to bind GUI components with data model?

Hi,
Just to make it clear:
We do not parse the XML on the event bean after the Coherence. We do it on the JMS adapter on multiple threads in order to utilize all the server resources (CPUs) and then we put it in the replicated cache.
The requirements from our application are:
- There is an aggregative query that needs to "see" all events (this means that we need to pass all events thru a single processor and we cannot partition them to several processors).
- Because this is a HA solution the events on both CEPs (primary and secondary) needs to be at the same order when reaching the HA inbound adapter and the processor.
- A single thread JMS adapter is not reading the messages from the JMS fast enough mainly because it takes time to parse the XML to an event.
- Using a multi-threaded adapter or many single threaded adapters with message selector will create a situation that the order of events on both CEPs will not be the same at the processor inbound.
This is why we needed a mediator so we can read in multiple threads that will parse the XMLs in parallel without concerning on order of messages and on the other hand publish all the messages on a single thread to the processors on both CEPs from this shared mediator (we use a replicated cache that runs on both JVMs).
We use queue instead of topic because if we read the messages from a topic on both CEPs it will be stored twice on the Coherence replicated cache. But if we use a queue, when server 1 read the message and put it in the Coherence replicated cache then server 2 will not read it because it was removed from the queue.
If I understand correctly you are suggesting replacing the JMS adapter with an event bean that will read the messages from the JMS directly?
Are you also suggesting that we will not use a replicated cache but instead a stand alone cache on each server? In this case how do we keep the same order of events on both CEPs (on both caches)?

Hi looking for a bit of help with Aperture 3.1.2

I have a digital image which has been taken in RAW. Is it possible to remove a unwanted brackground building from the image , can i aslo replace it with a different background.
Manythanks

That will depend on the image, how difficult that will be.
You can replace parts of an image by copying details from other parts of the image using the clone brush. This works well, if the item you want to replace is isolated in front of a background with not much detail.
If the background has plenty of structure close to the object you want to remove an external editor would be preferable, for example Inpaint is easy to use and fills in the space left by removed objects nicely, also PhotoShop Elements is good for this kind of retouche.
At the App Store: Mac App Store - Inpaint 5 - iTunes - Apple

Looking for some internet hosting advice.

I am working on a website and I am trying to get an idea of
what to expect in the future. If I wanted to add a video sharing
area to my site, like YouTube, what would be the most
cost-efficient way to do it? I would need a very large amount of
disk space and a very high bandwidth transfer. I don't know much
about internet hosting, but I have been reading into it. It seems
to me that I would need to use one of these colocation facilities.
Is that right?

Why not just use YouTube? Put all your videos up there...sure
would save a
bunch of money and time.

Stick to microsoft office. The macbook comes with a free 14 day (almost positive that it's that long) for both Office and iWork. No one can beat Microsoft Office because everyone already uses it and Office on the mac works seamlessly with pc's when transfering files. Also, with the purchase of office, you get 3 licences so you would be able to split the cost of it with 3 people/3 different computers. I have been using Macs for years and Microsoft Office works very well on the mac and you would easily be able to work with your students without worrying about compatibility problems.
I am sure Apple's iWork is great (obviously keynote is excellent) but depending on what you wish to do, Office might just be the easier solution.
If you look at the reviews of iWork you will notice many people love it, mostly for Keynote, and say that Pages needs work.
