My Dock is gone and I can not launch an application from my desktop.

I need to recover my dock and be able to launch files from my desktop. What happened and how do I restore it.
Also, when I attach my power cord the light turns orange and the battery icon shows that it is not chargine.
This all happened when I opened my screen this morning. I tried shutting down and it does not fix it.

Hi.
To recover your Dock, try this: From the Finder Menu bar, Go/Home/Library/Preferences and move com.apple.dock.plist to the Desktop
Then, from he Finder window go to Macintosh HD (or whatever your startup disk is named)/System/Library/CoreServices and doble click the Dock application.
Good Luck.

Can not launch swing application from Java Web Start 1.6.0_37

I have a dynamic generated jnlp file from a serlvet. When I used Java Web Start to start the swing application, it failed. The exception showed

I used janela to validate the generated jnlp file. It was valid. I also checked the tomcat access log, it showed that the Test-1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar file was accessed correctly (with a 200 return code).
Can anyone help me what was the problem?
Thanks,

The hardware on the 2G does not support an iOS version higher than 4.2.1. If you want apps that require a higher version you will need to get a newer model iPod.
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.

Your phone is carrier locked to a carrier other than the one you are trying to use.
It was apparently hacked to unlock it prior to your attempt to update. Updating has re-locked it to the original carrier.
Contact them and find out what their policy is.

You access Facetime through the Contacts app - there is no Facetime app on the phone.

My MacBook Pro does not recognize my Android Incredible 2 cell phone and I can not transfer my photos from my cell phoen to my Mac. I was able to do this in the past, but can no longer do so. i havenot upgraded to any new software.

My MacBook Pro does not recognize my Android Incrdible 2 cell phone and therefore I can not transfer any photos from my cell phone to my Mac. I was able to do this in the past, but can not do so now. I have not upgraded to any new software. My USB cable is plugged in properly and I just get an error message -- "No Android Device Found". What could be the problem?

I had the same issue with the Galaxy S4 trying to see what the hype was about and was my first and last android phone. With that being said unfortunately it is a hit or miss with the Mac recognizing an android device or not. It worked perfectly fine the first time around and then it stopped working for no apparent reason. Through trial and error nothing I did solved the issue. I did however plug it in my Mac and left it connected for about 30-40 min to charge for a bit and all of the sudden it recognizes the phone. So I just launched Android File Transfer and everything else became fluid after that. I have no explanation as to why it happened that way, but what I gathered from this is maybe you just have to let it sit for a minute while plugged in before the Mac recognizes it, after all they are opposing software. On a side note this is why I will always be an apple user, Iphones and the like never have this problem

First Time Discussion User - My photos are gone and I can not replace them?

I had been working along fairly well. The Apple TV was being synchronized with a file on my XP PC when I brought up I Tunes (that's another problem). I was loosing too much of the picture when looking at my photos. I thought that I had made an error in the set up that told the Apple TV to expand the picture to fill the screen. I thought maybe this was causing the photos to be cropped.
Anyhow, I went into the setup area of the Apple TV and tried a lot of areas. Nothing sounded like it fixed the problem. Somehow in this exploration of the menues, I deleted all of my pictures on the Apple TV. So I went to iTunes on the PC to resynch the photos. Somehow the iTunes lost track of the Apple TV.
I used the help to lookup how to reestablish contact. I received some sort of message that said that I had a problem with a firewall. I don't think that I changed anything since it worked last.
I'm about ready to give up. Apple TV and iTunes are not useable by a Windows person.
Does anyone have a suggeston better than - "Try a different solution."?

A possible cause is a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

Can't launch Photoshop items from the desktop

After recently upgrading to Tiger, I can't open an item in Photoshop after double-clicking or dragging onto the Photoshop icon in the dock. I have to go into Photoshop first to open it. What a pain!
I'm sure this is an easy fix, but obviously I don't know it....
H-E-L-P M-E.......
G4 desktop Mac OS X (10.4.8)

First off, sounds to me the Photoshop icon in the dock was made from an alias, and not the actual application. If the alias lost its way to the original file at anytime, that can break the connection on the Dock. Remove Photoshop from the Dock while it is closed and reopen the application directly, and click and hold the Photoshop icon in the Dock, and select the menu item in the Dock for Keep in Dock. That at least should fix it so dragging an item to Photoshop will launch it if Photoshop recognizes the file format.
Note, if your open/save dialog box is open in Photoshop, it won't allow you to open documents from the Finder. Only when a file is already open, or just the application is open with no user clickable dismissable dialogs are open, will files launch from the Finder.
If none of these applies, you may need to change the Open/With settings by control-mouse clicking the said document and select Open With... Navigate to the Photoshop application itself in the file browser that comes up, and check off the checkbox "Always Open With".

Can you Launch External Applications From Within InDesign Ebook?

Hi all,
I was wondering if it is possible to open an external application from within an ebook (created with InDesign) e.g. click on a link and have an external ssh client open up for instance?
Thanks in advance for any advice.
Regards,
RG

It's possible to include hyperlinks in an InDesign file and export them in an EPUB file. Since I'm not familiar with working with SSH clients (in fact, I just had to Google it to have a clue what you're talking about), is this something that can be invoked in a standard URL format? If so, you could probably include it.
The next issue is whether the link would work. The link couldn't be used directly in any eBook reader I know of, but at least the iBook on an iPad or iPhone would switch to to Safari to let you follow a URL to its destination. But I don't think that's possible on most eBooks.
