-remove the javascript directory since it is getting cleaned and recreated during the build process.
-this should make SVN happy and get the builds working again
Removed Paths:
flex/sdk/trunk/frameworks/javascript/FABridge/samples/srcview/source/fabridge/javascript/- Where? That depends upon what you what. But, going by the letter of what you asked, you shouldn't deploy any applications or packages if you want them on your newly images systems, you should make them a part of the TS using Install Software and Install
Application tasks.
- How many times? You should only need one although depending upon what you are deploying and if you are using offline updates, some folks add more. I typically use two one right after the Setup Windows and ConfigMgr task (just like the task sequence wizard
builds for you) to update the OS and "things" in the image and one at the end to catch additional updates for apps and components added during the TS. Note that you also have to initiate an update scan cycle for additional install update tasks to work. Do
this by adding a run-command line task before the second Install Updates task with the proper WMIC incantation.
- Offline Updates only injects CBS updates into the image which are typically just core OS updates. You should also update your image though to include non-CBS updates. Using a build and catpure task sequence makes this easy.

i connected my iphone 3g to itunes which was in 4.1 firmware and itunes ask for an update which i downloaded an updated the phone to version 6.1.3 but my phone cannot start it shows no service my sim card is not getting network and i cannot use the phone. what should i do.?
First, you do not have a 3G if you could upgrade it to 6.1.3, because 4.2.1 is the last version that will work on the 3G. So you either have a 3GS or you somehow hacked the phone to install an incompatible version. You can check the model you have by entering your serial number here: https://selfsolve.apple.com/agreementWarrantyDynamic.do
Assuming you have a 3GS the most likely reason for your problem is you have a gray market phone that was hacked or jailbroken to unlock it. When you upgraded it you removed the hack, so the phone is now locked to its original carrier. -

What is your operating system & version?
What exactly means "cant"? And what is the error you get? -
Are you still able to get apps and games that use the 4.2.1 version?
are you still able to get apps and games that use the 4.2.1 verson on a second generation ipod touch?
Yes. To more easily find compatible apps:
iOSSearch - search the iTunes store for compatible apps.
Vintapps 3.1.3 - paid app.
Apple Club - filter apps by iOS version. -
when i scrolling down/up in safari and firefox the display gets brighter (for instance when the screen and texts in a page is blue it gets light blue and little blurs by scrolling) and when i stop scrolling the screen gets plain.
If it is only blurring on the words and not the stationary dock then it is because the screen does not have a great response time.

IMac G5 17-inch display slowly getting brighter
I have a 3-year old iMac G5. The 17" display is slowly getting a brighter and brighter white point and is noticeably blowing away subtle lighter colors. Adjusting brightness or recalibrating the monitor doesn't seem to work. Is there a way to fix this?
I have not read anything similar to your post here at the Apple forum...
You can try resetting your Display to Factory settings... Utilites > ColorSnyc Utility > Devices > toggle Display > iMac > Current Profile: Set to Factory - this should set your display as orginal, now you can go into System Preferences and calibrate a profile display to your liking...
You should also take a look at the Repair Extensions here: http://www.apple.com/support/exchange_repair/imac.html

How to get Aperture and iPhoto to use Pentax *ist DL RAW images natively
Using some techniques that I found in various places in these forums, I am going to give step-by-step instructions to get Aperture and iPhoto to recognize Pentax *ist DL RAW images natively.
Note: This worked for me using 10.4.6 with the latest iPhoto 06 and Aperture updates. I do NOT know if this will work on older versions of OS X, iPhoto, or Aperture.
Note: If you also use a Pentax *ist DS camera, these instructions will probably disable support for that particular device due to the modifications made to a system file. Only complete these instructions if you want to use a *ist DL camera.
** These instructions involve modifying system level files using a HEX editor. If you are not comfortable with this, do NOT attempt to do this or you could kill your system. Remember, BACKUP BACKUP BACKUP. These steps worked great for me but follow at your own risk!! **
Ok, lets begin...
1) Download this great patch by macintosh_tech
http://idisk.mac.com/macintosh_tech-Public
This patch contains an updated raw.plist file which includes the RAW information for the *ist DL. This patch also contains an updated libRaw.dylib file and an updated Raw Presets file for Aperture.
** Do NOT copy the libRaw.dylib file from this patch to the folder listed in the patch Read_Me. This file did not work on my Intel-based Mac and crashed my system!!
I was able to modify my original libRaw.dylib file using a HEX editor to get it to work on my system. Instructions for this modification will follow.
2) Open the .dmg of the patch in a Finder window
3) Open a new finder window and browse to /System/Library/Frameworks/ApplicationServices.framework/Frameworks/ImageIO.fra mework/Resources
*4) Backup the libRaw.dylib and Raw.plist files. Copy them to a safe location. For extra safety, you can just copy the whole Resources folder to a safe location (Make sure that you COPY it and dont MOVE it)*
5) Right-click the libRaw.dylib file and select "Get Info". Look at the bottom of the info window and expand the "Ownership & Permissions" tab. In this section, expand the "Details" tab. If the lock icon is in the locked position, click it to unlock it. Change "Owner" to your user name. If requested, enter your system password at this point. Close the info window. This step lets you modify the libRaw.dylib file.
6) Complete step 5 for the Raw.plist file.
7) Copy the Raw.plist file from the "Place In System Folder" folder from the patch to the Resources folder. It will ask you if you wnt to overwrite the existing file. Click "Replace".
8) Open a new finder window and browse to the /Users/YOURUSERNAME/Library/Application Support/Aperture/ folder.
* 9) Backup the "Raw Decode Presets.plist" file *
10) Copy the "Raw Decode Presets.plist" file from the "Place In Home Directory" folder from the patch to the /Users/YOURUSERNAME/Library/Application Support/Aperture/ folder. Click "replace" if it asks you.
11) Here's the tricky part. Download a HEX editor if you don't have one. I used 0xED. It is free and can be downloaded from
http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/29521
12) Open the libRaw.dylib file from the Resources folder in your HEX editor.
Note: This is your original libRaw.dylib file from your /System/Library/...../Resources/ folder, NOT the file from the patch.
Use the Find function and search for the string "Pentax *ist DS". Make sure you are using "Search Type: Text" (or equivilent in your editor) and that you use proper case. When you find this string, change the "S" in the "DS" to an "L". The string should now look like "Pentax *ist DL". Use the "Find Next" function to find the next instance of "Pentax *ist DS". Again, change the "S" to an "L". There should be two total instances that you need to change. Save the file and exit the editor.
13) Open Disk Utility and repair permissions. This will set the raw.plist and libRaw.dylib files back to their original permissions.
14) Reboot the system.
15) You should now be able to view .PEF files natively in Aperture and iPhoto. I appologize in advance for any typos. Let me know how this works, as this is my first tutorial of this nature.
Macbook 2.0 Mac OS X (10.4.6)It would appear that my last post was a moot point as the 10.4.7 update adds support for the *ist DL. It's nice to have it biult into the operating system now.

Desktop display randomly getting smaller and moving to the upper left of the screen.
Hi all.
I am hoping someone can shed some light on an issue I've been expierencing. I have scoured the web and have been unable to find much, if anything, in way of solutions.
All little difficult to describe, but I will include a pic as well as a visual.
We are using some Q180's as media players for digital signage. For the most part they have all been working fine except for 2. Randomaly, the signage presentation will re-size itself and move into the upper left corner. This happens randomly and not at the same times each day. They are hooked up to a LED tv via HDMI. I have tried switiching the HDMI cables, ensuring all drivers are current and tried most all the basic troubleshooting.
A simple re-start will get everything back looking and running fine. Again, this is a digital signage application so we cannot tell if this has occured until the client calls to let us know which is not good for us.
I do apologize if this is not too clear of a description. Please refer to the image for a visual. Also, please feel free to ask me any questions you think may help you.

I found if you adjust the refresh rate (in display settings) then back again it stopps snapping.
Do you all have an AOC monitor connected by HDMI? -
Ipod with "apple" on it alternates between bright and dark - can't reset?
I have a 5th generation ipod (30gig) and I just downloaded the most recent (March 23rd) software update.
The screen (with the apple logo in the middle) goes from "light" to "dark" and when it goes to dark the ipod sounds like it wants to close down but it doesn't. It just continues in this bright/dark sequence.
I've tried resetting to no avail.
Can anyone suggest how I deal with this

Backlight alternating bright and dark spots
Just a few days ago my backlight started acting weird and now I have these dark and bright spots at the bottom of the screen. I went into system preferences and turned my auto adjust brightness off thinking that might be the problem, however, the screen still has the same problem.. I have attached a picture of what my screen looks like.. I am operating on system 10.7.5
You have to take the computer to the Apple store to have it checked out.

Since installing the latest update firefox stops responding and hangs during use.
The only way I can get it to work is to shut it down and restart the application. I can open IE and access the sites which don't respond so it is definately a firefox problem. All firefox tabs stop responding including downloads. This is occurring every 2nd or 3rd page I open. Help - it's driving me insane!
