Mac dev for OS 8 and up! I have 3 questions.
I need to develope a program for Mac users. These are the questions I need before developement. Please help with any suggestions or answers on these issues. Thanks.
1) What are advantages and disadvantages between creating a JAR in comparresion to an applet.
2) If I create a JAR using JBuilder 5 will it run on OS 8 and up? Am I restricted to AWT or can I also use SWING? Is there any restrictions I should be aware of?
3) What browser versions of IE and Netscape support JAVA and is there any restrictions that I should be aware of?
1) If you want to create a highly functional, large program, you should create an application. If you want to create a less functional interface, usually for small games, or to communicate with a central server, you should use an applet. Also, if you want to have an applet get files off the users machine, or communicate in any way, then you have to use a securitymanger and sign it, which means buying a certificate from Verisign.
2/3) Java will run on any operating system as long as the have the proper VM for the version you are developing. You can use swing, but if you want an applet to be properly displayed in Netscape of IE you can't use Swing unless your users are willing to download the newest version of MRJ, in that case you would be better off doing an application.
Hope this helps

I currently use an iPhone, an iPad, and a Mac computer for business. The three devices have Contacts Managers that sync with each other through both Google and through Mobile Me. Currently, this has created a mess of duplicate contacts. Please advise me on the steps necessary for removing these duplicates and establishing a syncing solution that doesn't regenerate the duplicates. There are several applications available that remove duplicates, but I am not sure which ones work or don't work. I want information on this, but most importantly I want to understand how to fix this problem permanently. Also, I read somewhere that Mac's new operating system, Lion, can help deal with duplicates. I don't have Lion, but I would be willing to get it, if this would fix the problem.
Had the same problem with 4 devices (two computers, an iPhone and an iPod). The solution is simple: open the Address Book application in your mac, ask it to locate duplicate entries (under one of the top menu items, "edit" I think), and then ask it to consolidate them: it took me all of three seconds after I figured it out: worked like a charm! PS: if you have more than one mac with unconected Address Books, repeating the operation in the second one may be a good idea.

Purchased a early 2008 Mac Pro in 2010. Yesterday I updated my mac to System 10.9 and now I have a dialogue box in system preferences saying I need to update the NVIDIA CUDA drivers but the servers are unavailable. I download a driver from the site but the Mac would not open it. This system has an ATI Radeon HD 2600 XT 256 MB graphics card. What do I need to do. Do I need a new Card?

I've had very little trouble in two years. And now I do like Windows 7 but also eager for the RC.
I've been using the latest Nvidia. There is a method to the madness of how to uninstall/delete and install graphics drivers, or madness in the method. The W7 drivers are easier.
Nope. Something else. More sensitive to disk errors. You aren't running a program to boost fans. Something.
And some AV software is more prone to causing trouble. But all you need is a good AV/malware program, and even Norton AV 2009 is acceptable, or Avast or one of the others.

Here I am using Java Type IV for database
connection.
So,there was no necessity of creating DNS.How your app communicates with db shouldn't matter for the end user. Still, you may want to use a functional network name also for the thin client driver connection string.
So,is there any other way to solve this problem.What is the problem really? Do you not use dns for network naming? Maybe you have to manage the hosts file on every client then. -
