LV NXT toolkit 2.0 for mac

On the toolkit downloads page, the NXT 2.0 toolkit is for windows only.
However, there is Mindstorms NXT 2.0 for both operating systems.
I was wondering what might cause this discrepancy. Has NI simply not built this installer for mac, or are there some DLLs that aren't available?
From what I've heard, there's two differences between the two:
i2c color sensor
AND
floating point handling.

NXT Toolkit with V8.2

I've been working with LabView v7.1 and creating a number of applications that use Bluetooth to communicate between my laptop and the NXT unit. These were all built and tested for Windows machines. I want to also make them Mac compatible, but 7.1 doesn't support Bluetooth in the Mac.
So I've installed v 8.2. When I try to install the NXT toolkit, the installer finds the toolkit in 7.1 and opts to leave it on the local disk and not install anything into v 8.2. When I try to start my v 7.1 vi's in 8.2 the program starts asking for the location of nxt.ctl, and all the direct command objects like NXTToolkit.DC.CreateNXTObject.vi. I've done a mass compile on v 8.2 but that seems to have no effect.

The NXT Toolkit installer only allows you to install the software once right now. The most direct work-around is to un-install the toolkit from 7.1 and then re-install it in the 8.2 directory. Alternately, you can get creative and find the files in the 7.1 directory and manually copy them into your 8.2 directory.

Problems getting NXT toolkit to work with version 8.5

I recently downloaded the nxt toolkit to use with labview version 8.5 when i select tools and go to the nxt module it minimises the labview window for a few seconds and then the nxt module opens for around a secondand then disappears, does anyone know whats causing this any help greatly appeciated.

You could try to do a File->Save for Previous Version on the PID VIs that you want to use. However,
if one of the PID subVIs was saved without a block diagram then this
won't work. Also, I'm not sure if the toolkit is backwards compatible
in this way. Also, when you do this you will effectively be saving the
VI hierarchy into a new location.
However, your best bet (and my recommendation) is to contact your local NI sales rep to see if they can get you a CD with the 8.5 version. Since you have a license for the toolkit it's probably not going to be an issue.

LabVIEW NXT toolkit and Vista

Hi All,
This is not a burning problem, but have folks tried out the NXT toolkit with Vista? I've installed Vista Business Edition under our MSDNAA license on a development machine to start slogging through compatability issues with our current suite of software, and it appears the LabVIEW NXT toolkit may be an early casualty.
The toolkit installs fine under Vista BusEd, but the NXT console application crashes when I try to run it from the LabVIEW IDE menu.
Any thoughts/experiences with this?
Best regards,
-Bill =]

Hi Joel,
Thanks for your reply. The specifics of my development system are below:
OS: Windows Vista Business
Proc: Intel Pentium 4 CPU 2.80 GHZ
RAM: 1014 MB
Type: 32-bit OS
I chose to use the Vista UPGRADE of WinXPsp2 rather than a wipe and clean install. Before upgrading the OS I removed all previous versions of LabVIEW (7.1 and 8.0) and also removed the Mindstorms NXT-G system.
After the OS upgrade to 32-bit VistaBusEd, I installed LabVIEW 8.20, then Mindstorms NXT-G, several LabVIEW Toolkits and finally the LabVIEW NXT Toolkit.
When I try to load LabVIEW code that uses (for example) the sendDirectCommand.vi from the FantomSDK, I get the following block diagram error:
"Call Library Function Node 'fantom.dll:nFANTOM100_iNXT_sendDirectCommand': function not found in library
Details: The function name specified for this node cannot be found in the library. Right-click the Call Library Function node and select Configure, then choose the correct function name.
When I follow the Details procedure, I specify the exact location of the fantom.dll, select nFANTOM100_iNXT_sendDirectCommand from the Function name dropdown listbox, the Thread is set to Reentrant and the Calling convention is set to "C".........after closing the dialog I get:
Error loading "C:\.....path.....\fantom.dll".
A dynamic link library (DLL) initialization routine failed.
Also, when I create a blank vi and drop a function from the LabVIEW NXT toolkit, such as NXTToolkit.DC.FindNXT.vi on the block diagram, I imediately get the following similar error:
Error loading "fantom.dll".
A dynamic line library (DLL) initialization routine failed.
Does this help?
Many thanks,
-Bill =]
p.s. - BTW, the Minstorms NXT-G system works as expected under the 32-bit VistaBusEd using both USB and Bluetooth.....so I guess VistaBusEd is able to intialize and communicate through the fantom.dll when used by NXT-G.

Upgrading LabView 2011 to 2012 for Mac OSX

I am considering Upgrading LabView 2011 to 2012 for Mac OSX.
Is this a free upgrade?
Is a Mac OSX version available?
Is the NXT module still working in LabView 2012?
LabView 2011 ain't broke but I just recived a vi which requires a newer version :-(
Thanks.

It depends if you have a current service contract. You get a 1 year period where you will get updates to LabVIEW after purchase.

Teaching LabVIEW to engineering students: is the NXT Toolkit recommended?

We have used NXT kits in our freshmen engineering design course with great success. We may overhaul our curriculum to replace ROBOLAB with the LabVIEW NXT Toolkit (our second choice would be NXT-G). We would like to give our students an early exposure to LabVIEW. We are hesitant about the sparse documentation and programming sophistication needed to effectively use the Toolkit. However, we believe we can overcome these concerns by locating and/or developing appropriate teaching materials.
We would appreciate hearing comments and/or experiences regarding the suitability of the Toolkit for this purpose. We are especially interested in knowing if further documentation (beyond the three PDF’s on the NI website) is available or planned. If anyone else is teaching the Toolkit in engineering courses, we would be very interested in a mutual exchange of course materials.
Thank you in advance for any guidance!

Matthew,
I am currently in the process of getting some resources together that might prove very helpful for you. If you look at this site,
http://zone.ni.com/devzone/cda/epd/p/id/5221
you'll see some labs that were made in the NXT-G software for a high-profile university. They were used in a freshman entry-level engineering lab and they proved highly successful for all involved.
I'm working on getting them ported over to a LabVIEW version that uses the NXT toolkit, but by looking at the labs you'll see that this is a process that could probably be done on your end without much of a time investment.
I'll try to let you know when I'm done with the project and can share the labs with you!

Will "FormEntry for Mac" work on my laptop as well as my iPad?

Will "FormEntry for Mac" work on my laptop as well as my iPad?

No.
FormEntry for Mac is different thant FormEntry Touch (iPad). FormEntry for Mac is free and is the toolkit you need to create form-based iOS apps that work on iPads and iPhones.
You design your forms on FormEntry for Mac, either sync to your iPad using FormEntry Touch or export your forms to the .form file and email or host it on webserver/Dropbox and have your users load your forms via the Mail app or Mobile Safari.
Both FormEntry for Mac and FormEntry Touch work together and are required to work together. Both apps are free.
Cheers.

Does LabVIEW 8.6 support the NXT toolkit?

Does LabVIEW 8.6 support the NXT toolkit?, the NXT toolkit 1.0.1 patch does not give instructions on how to load it with LabVIEW 8.6. Does anyone know how to load the patch with LabVIEW 8.6?
LEGOAustin

Hi LEGOAUSTIN,
Check out the forum dedicated to Lego: http://forums.ni.com/ni/board?board.id=beta18. It is largely community driven but sometimes NI employees post.
I would also talk to Lego about NXT support. Check out his KB on the issue: http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/59F9356834A0E85086257244007A3354?OpenDocument.
What I can give you in the meantime is to ensure you've done the right order:
Install the LEGO MINDSTORMS NXT Toolkit v1.0
Restart the computer
Install the LEGO patch 1.0.1
As for explicit support in LabVIEW 8.6, it doesn't appear to be any right now and I cannot comment on the future.
A quick Google Search came up with this as a possible work around: http://forums.nxtasy.org/index.php?showtopic=3277

Opening animated gif in PSE 8 for Mac

I am switching from PSE for PC to PSE 8 for Mac.
I have always been able to open animated gif as layers and work with them, then resave as an updated animated gif.
WIth PSE 8 for Mac, I get a pop up that the file is animated and can only see the top frame. Any ideas on how to open up all of the frames in layers?

Do I need to enable this process for my Mac? Maybe I'm missing a plug-in or update?
I have been opening these files from others, tweeking and resaving for almost 2 years in PSE. It definitely will not shuffle the individual panels on an animated gif into the layers box.
My tweeking usually involves adjusting frame speed. Is that what you mean by 'frame rate'?
Thank you for your help.

How do i add multiple lines in a cell (like a list) in Excel for MAC?

I'm trying to add multiple lines (in the form of a list) in a individual cell in Excel for MAC. I used ALT Enter on my PC but that doesn't work on the iMac. Does anyone know how to do this?
Thanks!

It's been a while but I think you hold SHIFT while typing a page break (RETURN) to make a new line without shifting to another cell.
However, as Excel isn't an Apple product, I am sure you will get a faster and more current answer by using Microsoft's Office:Mac forums here:

They are very good.

What about OSX 10.11 "El Capitian"?
In the last few weeks I've seen some folks asking about 10.11, which is currently available as a pre-release. At the moment, SAV 9.2.7 *should* work if SAV is already installed before you upgrade, but the install will fail if you attempt to install a fresh copy post-upgrade. That said, we'll be releasing another update for SAV prior to the official release of 10.11 "El Capitain" which will ensure full compatibility, so at the moment we recommend upgrading with caution.
Questions? Feedback on SAV 9.2.7?
Post it here and we'll get back to you ASAP!

I can no longer read any material in nook for mac. I have a macbook pro running lion. I used to be able to but something changed and i can no longer read it. any help?

I have nook for mac loaded on my macbook pro. When I try to open a book or magazine nothing happens. I`ve downloaded the nook program twice thinking it was a bad download but to no avail. Any help?

I found the following suggested fix, posted by a user on Barnes & Noble's site:
1. Create a folder in your Applications folder, call it: NOOKforMac
Once you've done this, copy the Nook app to this folder. This should allow the app to run on the 1st or possibly second attempt to launch it.
2. Once you're done using the app always quit it by clicking on the X (red in some cases) button of the application window (upper left hand corner)
This seems to have resolved the issue and my guess is that somehow the .dmg volume path is somewhere hard coded in the app configuration.
Elsewhere in that thread, the administrator advises calling Customer Service Team at 1-800-THE-BOOK (1-800-843-2665) and choose option 2 for Digital Support.
Good luck.

Want to use my ipod for Mac @ home and PC @ work....

I have a Mac at home and have my ipod set up for the Mac I guess. So I brought the ipod to work today to hook it up to itunes here on my PC, but itunes says only Windows formatted ipods can be used and that I have to do a restore on my ipod to use it.
I thought you could use the ipod on multiple computers? I thought it didn't matter if it was set for Mac or PC because you could still use it on both.
Any help? I want to connect my ipod at work so I can get the music on this computer. Thanks!!

Windows computers cannot read the file format the iPods are in when they are formatted for Mac use. However, Macs can read the Fat32 file format that the iPods go in when they are formatted for Windows.
To use the iPod with both computers, you'll have to first restore the iPod on your Windows computer (putting the iPod into Windows format).
The only downside is if there is an iPod software update, you won't be able to install that to the iPod from the Mac, just from Windows computers.

How to format an external drive for mac AND pc use

i want to format my external drive so i can use it on my mac and on pc's as well. i've gathered that the MS-DOS format is the way to go. my question is this: would this create any problems for my mac then?
can i partion one part for ms-dos and part for macos extended?
cheers
-j-

MS-DOS format (or FAT32) will be fine for both Mac and PC. However there is a 4GB file size limit with FAT32.
You could use a dual partition, however the HFS+ partition would not be readable by the PC unless you installed the third party MacDrive.
Look at this page for more information on a dual partition drive for Mac and Windows.
