          myRobot=new Robot();     
          myRobot.mouseMove(offX,offY);
          myRobot.delay( 1000 );
          myRobot.mousePress(InputEvent.BUTTON1_MASK);
          myRobot.delay( 1000 );
          myRobot.mouseMove(40,555);
          myRobot.delay( 1000 );
          myRobot.mouseRelease(InputEvent.BUTTON1_MASK);
          myRobot.mousePress(InputEvent.BUTTON1_MASK);
          myRobot.mouseRelease(InputEvent.BUTTON1_MASK);
          myRobot.delay( 1000 );
          //myRobot.keyPress(Event.ENTER);
public static void main( String args[] ) throws AWTException
          System.out.println("start");

  • Purchased the Sony Tablet in June 2012, started to shut down during regular use (blank screen, swirl

    I am a long time Sony customer… mostly TVs and other entertainment items.
    Purchased the Sony Tablet in June 2012, started to shut down during regular use (blank screen, swirly lights comes on, and soft reset required) in September 2012.
    December 2012, issue started to take place more frequent (to the point it was too annoying).
    Sent the tablet in for repair before X-Mas and just got it back from the TX repair center yesterday (1/14/13).
    They replaced the motherboard.
    1/15/13, 11:49AM, the same issue happened.
    I am asked to mail it in again, so they can fix the issue.
    I like Sony products, but this is something new for me.
    I like to know if this is common for the tablet, please share story.
    My concerns are:
    They replaced the motherboard (that is pretty much the core of the tablet!)
    What do I do when my warranty expires in June 2013 and the issue is still there?

    I and many others have the same issue. You can an find some links to reported issues in my thread.
    Sony has yet to acknowledge the issue and define whether it is software or hardware based. This lack of communication is very disheartening.

  • My I phone 3gs shuts down suddenlly but when i removed the sim it is working without shutting down suddenlly again when you insert the sim it started shutting down suddenlly

    My I phone 3gs shuts down suddelly but when I removed sim card it started working without sudden shut downs, again when I insert sim card it started shutting down suddenlly.

    I have Satellite A300 and until now everything works OK.
    I would like to know what happen when you remove the battery and use notebook with power supply only. Does notebook shuts down again.
    If not let OS run and put the battery.
    Is the battery recognized properly? Does notebook switch off again?
    To be honest I cannot imagine this issue has something with software or background processes. Recovery image you got with your notebook is designed for this certain notebook mode. Recovery image is tested and I dont think preinstalled OS has anything to do with this.
    Full diagnosis?
    And how to do this? You know very well that diagnosis can be done with diagnostic tools only and such tools have services only. I hope you will find answers but Im 99% sure there is nothing you can do about that. Maybe you should contact service, explain the situation and ask for help.

  • Shutting down Essbase Service on Windows

    Hi,
    I have some intermittent problem on shutdown application on windows platform, after executing MaxL script "alter system unload application all;" some application process "esssvr.exe" still running on the system and then executing shutdown operation "alter system shutdown;" hung up.
    On OS Event Application I see these information:event: EssbaseService error: 997, Shutting down Essbase Service.

    application process "esssvr.exe" still running on the
    system and then executing shutdown operation "alter

    IvanEssbase will not unload the application (or database) if there is currently a calculation or dataload in progress. Has some user fired off a calculation (from the Excel addin perhaps) or do you still have a calculation still running in AAS as a background process (which doesn't require the AAS console to remain up)?
    It may also be helpful to know what application is running in the specific esssvr.exe process instance. Essbase creates a process in a new PID for each application started. You can find out which application belongs to that PID by searching through the essbase log.
    Here's a simple DOS batch file that I use when I suspect that I have a runaway calc and need to know which application is running it. Use the Windows Task Manager to discover the PID for the esssvr.exe process in question and pass it in as a parameter to this batch file.

  • Satellite Pro A10: after 3 years now just started shutting down

    Hi
    Can anyone help with this problem?
    I've had my Sat Pro A10 about 3 years now and it's just started shutting down.
    I've had the fan replaced and the unit cleaned out.
    In the power options I've set the processor to minimum speed and the cooling to max.
    Has anyone got any other suggestions.
    Cheers

    There is a good way to test if you have a CPU/RAM related problem. Just use Superprime or prime95 which is excellent for testing these two core components.
    I am a heavy overclocker, so I need prime95 like my breath, and it works perfectly. It shows me when the CPU is exceeding a limit of overclocking (the same for the RAM) and if something is wrong with it.
    If you then test it on your own machine, and you get an error, then you know that you probably have a hardware fault. But make sure that you quit all unneeded applications, which can disturb the test, so there were some reports, that applications cause error with these program.
    I hope I could give you a new idea.

  • My iMac 10.8.5 recently started shutting down and giving me an warning about why asking me to send a copy of the issue to Apple.. what can I do?

    Recently my iMac running 10.8.5 started shutting down in the middle of things like saving pics or emailing.   An accompanying error message told me to contact Apple support.. here I am.  If I rebooted it runs ok for a few more days.   I enjoy YouTube and Hampster any suggestions?
    D from Boston

    First of all thank you for your help.  Second, I edited out the Anonymous UID.. and do not see anything named shutdown, Stall, Spin or Hang ....  If there are any other suggestions you could make, I am so listening.

    Every time I try to turn on Genius in iTunes, iTunes get shut down - I'm using a Windows 7 pc with iTunes 10.5.1.
    It started after I bought a new PC, everything worked fine at the old one.

  • MY macbook Air just started shutting down suddenly

    MY 2011 Macbook Air just started shutting down when I watch Hulu and Skype. What is wrong?
    It turns back on fine then within 15 mins, it'll shut off completely. So far, it only shuts off when I'm using Skype or watching videos...

    After it restarted, did you see a dialog box resembling this one:
    If so, next time it occurs click Report...
    Before you send it to Apple, copy the text of the report. Paste it in a reply. Remove or obscure any personal information, should it appear.

  • HT5302 shut down unneeded services

    We're setting up a public facing server for Profile Manager use only. Profile Manager uses the following ports:
    2195, 2196 TCP Used by Profile Manager to send push notifications 5223 TCP Used to maintain a persistent connection to APNs and receive push notifications 80/443 TCP Provides access to the web interface for Profile Manager admin 1640 TCP Enrollment access to the Certificate Authority
    Our internal Security people are asking us to disable the following ports for security reasons:
    88: Kerberos 389: LDAP 464: kpasswd 749: Kerberos 5 3659: SASL (Password Server)
    1) Can this be done given what we're trying to do (iOS Policy Management via Profile Manager only).
    2) What are the Terminal Commands for toggling these ports on and off for testing?
    3) Is it better to shut down associated services rather than the ports assuming some ports might be shared?

    Opmn may not be up.it means OPMN is already down. You can do

    if all are down then you are good to move on to next step.

    I have an iMac running 10.7.3 that will not shut down or restart using the apple menu.  The only way to get this machine to shut down is to hold down the on/off button on the back of the computer.  This has been a problem for quite some time and may have started with Lion, but I’m not sure.  Any help is appreciated.

    Hi...
    Before you shut down, make sure you "quit" all open applications. Applications are running if you see the small blue reflection under the app's name in your Dock.
    If necessary, you can force quit apps... several ways to do this.  One, from your Apple menu > Force Quit or using the Activity Monitor located in /Applications/Utilities.
    If it's not a question of open applications, try Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)

    If not of the above works and you have AC, call them.  Let them deal w/it.  Otherwise, take your iMac down to your local AS or an AASP.  Diagnostic testing is FREE!

  • Can anyone answer why photoshop CS3 shuts down when I use the scanner?

    Can anyone help me with why photoshop CS3 shuts down when I use the scanner? I recently upgraded to OS X Yosemite.

    Ask in the PS forum and be much more specific. You have not provided exact system information, crash logs, scanner details. That said, this may be a compatibility issue that can't be overcome.

  • IMac from 2009, 4 GB RAM. System shuts down when I use safari or make much moves on the trackpath.

    I've got an iMac from 2009, 4 GB RAM. System shuts down when I use safari or make much moves on the trackpath. Use Mavericks, installed Mavericks again on clean system. Problem still exist. What now?

    The 2009 iMaccan take 8 GB ram, while it should run ok with 4 it might be a rather inexpensive test to put in 8 and see if that clears up the problems.  Mavericks is going to use almost 2 GB itself so, unless you are opening a lot of applications, you should get by with 4 GB.  But I would go for 8 and see how it does.

  • My ipod Nano generation 7 shuts down unexpectedly while using the NIKE  app, has anyone experienced this problem?

    My ipod Nano generation 7 shuts down unexpectedly while using the NIKE  app, has anyone experienced this problem?

    This is not a problem I have only had with 7th gen. iPod.  I have had this problem with the 5th gen.  It goes back a few years.  Nike and Apple are aware of this.  Nothing has been done.  It appears that when the iPod voice commences (whether to update you on the status of your run) and you touch a button to prompt a mileage update or song change yourself (or even brush the device wrong when taking off a jacket), the operating system overloads and cannot sort it out.  It then shuts down and reboots.  Your mileage is lost.  So sorry.  Have a nice day.
    Love the other aspects of running with a nano (small and light weight).  I can keep it high and dry and out of the way.  Like the software.  Use it almost everyday.  Hate the unknown dropped runs.  I have logged over 2,000 miles with these devices.  Today I lost another 3 miles - probably the 30-40th time it has happened.  Frustration is somewhere between time for another device to time for another system - Map My Run indeed!
    This probably occurs with my iPod once or twice a month.  Went to the Apple Store - three times.  The first time was maybe two years ago and they first tried some magic dust and then on the second visit, they swapped out my nano - it was a bit flimsy.  The problem returned.  I then upgraded.  The problem returned.  The third time they did a reset and it seemed to help.  Then, it returned.  But to download an older software version, verify the fidelity of the UBS cable, jump from computer to computer, make a trip to the Apple store, and perform so many two steps on one leg just to get what we paid for seems . . .  well, lame.  And, Apple told us the thingy would work using all the different computers and software (Vista, Nike, etc. etc.).   
    Oh, one other thing.  The Apple Store told me to complain to Nike.  Nike said their software is fine.  This is like dealing with General Motors or the government - but, worse.  Not my problem man.  See the guy over there.  Got it.
    I note that no one from Apple is jumping in the chain here with a fix.  So much for customer exuberance.  Generally like Apple.  We have about 20 Apple devices in our family (desktops, portables, phones, pods, tablets) and are lining up for the watches . . .  but, maybe Apple is an idea who time has come and gone, . . . like the wind.
