Need help in converting old LabVIEW instrument drivers to new version.

Hello,
I just rented a Tektronix DG2020A data generator. I did not find any instrument drivers for the DG2020A on the Instrument Driver Network, although there are drivers for DG2040 that could be used to some extent. With the instrument, I also received a floppy with example programs. This does include LabVIEW drivers for the DG2020A. However, when I tried to load the VIs, I received an error message that the VI version 3.1 is too old to be converted to 7.1. Can someone at NI help with the conversion? It would be very useful.
Thanks.

There is a driver available for the DG2020 on NI's site. Models supported are the DG2020, DG2030, and DG2040. Available in both 7.x and 8.x.

Do I need to uninstall the old Firefox before installing the new version?

I really don't have any problems with Firefox, just trying to find out if it is necessary to uninstall Firefox 4, before installing the new version?

no, in fact, it's better to update it instead of installing the new one separately so that you don't loose your bookmarks and such.
To update, open firefox and go to Help and chose About Firefox. you should see an update button there.

What labview package do I need to develop third party labview instrument drivers?

We have been asked develop labview 6.1 drivers for a third party data acquisition card. What Labview package do we need to buy, basic, pro etc?

The only way to really program for a third party data acquisition card in LabVIEW would be through a "call library function node". You would have to call the dll that third party card developer provided. As far as I know all LabVIEW packages contain a "call library function node". I would recomend buying at least the full development environment because of some of the additional features in that package.

I need help merging an old Mozilla Firefox with a new one, How do I do it?

Can Firefox merge my two Mozilla Firefox accounts?
Between 2010 and 2012 I created to separate Mozilla Firefox accounts. The first was under Teri Muckleroy with the Username savdXGodsgrace and email address (Email removed by mod) that has been changed as of 05/30/2012 to (Email removed by mod) and the second account that I created for my Firefox Personas that is under the name Teri Hinton with the Username CountryGirlsHeartAlways and email address (Email removed by mod) that as of 05/30/2012 has been changed to (Email removed by mod) so what I want to know is could Mozilla Firefox help me merge the two accounts into one. The only info I want to use is,
Username: CountryGirlsHeartAlways
Email address: (Email removed by mod)
I'd like Mozilla Firefox to send me an email with a link to enter my password or send me a temporary password once the merge of both accounts has been completed or if a merge is not possible a solution that will make it possible for me to merge the two accounts myself.

What do you mean with a Mozilla Firefox account? Note also that a moderator already removed your e-mail details to protect you from getting spam. Please don't post private information in this public forum, for your own safety. Thanks!

Best way to distribute LabVIEW Instruments Drivers.

Hello,
I'm trying to stick to the standards described just there:
Developing LabVIEW Plug and Play Instrument Drivers
Instrument Driver Development Tools and Resources
Instrument Driver Guidelines
However, I cannot see clearly what is the best way to distribute the LabVIEW Instruments Drivers, except that I need to be compliant with those standards to be on the IDNET (Instrument Drivers Network).
Here is a couple of questions I'm not really sure about their answers:
Is it okay to use a .NET dll and to make some calls?
Is it fine to hide the Block Diagram? With passwords in the Drivers
Can we put prevent the modification
In my situation several devices (or let's say modules can controlled through one communication medium), so basically I might have one instrument drivers for several things.,,
May I use some OOD? In order to control the equipment with methods and set some properties and encapsulate the communication stuff in classes, some equipments could be consider are inherited from others (more recent for instance), or this is totally prohibited by the guidelines above?
What is the most suitable Specification Build type: Packet Library or other? If packed library, how to handle the early version created issue when opening the lib with newer version of LabVIEW then?
How to deal with the copyright thing, do I need to copy and paste the copyright on both the Front Panel and on the Block Diagram?
Is this copyright enough: "Copyright (c) <Company Name>. All rights reserved"?

Not sure about 1) but 2) and 3) are definitely a no go if you want your library to be distributable through the ID network. The standard only allows for DLLs in that are really developed in C but would require you to also distribute the C code as far as I understand.
OOP may not be a problem.
Packed Library is definitely not something you want to do. They only work in the LabVIEW version in which they were created. You will hate the moment you decided to go with packed libraries as requests come in for other LabVIEW versions and your drivers are bashed on all discussion forums as being a pain in the ass to use.

I just created an iCloud email and I want to use that email for my iTunes account as well. I need help suiting the old apple I'd because I do not remember anything associated with that email and I don't know the security questions

I just created an iCloud email and I want to use that email for my iTunes account as well. I need help switching the old apple ID because I do not remember anything associated with that email and I don't know the security questions or the login for that old email.

You cannot do that. The AppleID you used to create the iCloud account is an active primary email address. The email address you created with the iCloud account is also an active primary email address (all Apple domain email address automatically become AppleIDs as well). You cannot replace the primary email address on one active AppleID with the primary email address on another, active AppleID.
You can use your iCloud email/AppleID with iTunes, but it will be a separate account, so all your previous purchases remain tied to the other AppleID you have.
I don't understand your statement that you could not remeber your old AppleID password, as you would have had to use it to create the iCloud account in the first place (the first step of creating the iCloud account required you to login with your existing AppleID and password)?

Need help in converting date format

Hi,
Need help in converting date format from 'DD-MON-YYYY' to 'YYYY-MM-DD' in an .rtf template as I believe xml publisher supports the date format as 'YYYY-MM-DD' only.
Thanks,
Raj.

I got the same problem, anyone know how to solve this problem? I allready found some date functions on http://blogs.oracle.com/xmlpublisher/2008/09/date_functions.html . I also tried <?xdoxslt:month_name(xdoxslt:get_month(xdofx:substr(NEED_BY_DATE, 4,3)), $_XDOLOCALE), 0, 'nl-NL')?>, but then it returns a namespace error (Caused by: oracle.xdo.parser.v2.XPathException: Namespace prefix 'xdofx' used but not declared.). Anyone know how to fix this?

I need help identifying an old Macintosh game: it was a painting game where you rode a roller coaster to an art museum and you got to pick what kind of art work you were going to make. This was the early 90's and I've been trying to hunt it down

I need help identifying an old Macintosh game: it was a painting game where you rode a roller coaster to an art museum and you got to pick what kind of art work you were going to make. It was animated, 2D i believe. This was the early 90's and I've been trying to hunt it down. I think there was some kind of animal in it, a giraffe maybe?

Could you be thinking of Microsoft Home's "Fine Artist" for Macintosh, as shown in this Amazon.com listing? This program was bundled with the Performa series of Macs during the mid-90s.

HT1349 I need help finding an old library that itunes states my ipod is already linked to

I need help finding an old library that it states my ipod is already linked to. My computer recently had a terrible virus and needed to be wiped clean. I had to redownload itunes and I bought several songs. I want to add them to my old library because I had several cd's that I had uploaded. Is there a way to find that old library and combine them without having to erase all the songs that are currently on my ipod??? Thanks

Umm. If you wiped the hard drive, then all old libraries are gone unless you have them on backup.

Loader (Need help to convert from AS3 to AS2)

Since I know this code works fine and that I use it into one of my AS3 flash, I need it in one of my AS2 flash and I don't know how to adapt it. I've searched in over 100 threads and I can't find something similar... Thanks to help me get it to work in AS2! Since I need it in AS2, I thought it would be the right place to post it.
I posted all the loading process code, but I would need help mostly with the Loader part. How to do it in AS2? Thanks!
var img = 0;
var image_total = 0;
var myImages_array:Array = new Array();
var myBitmaps_array:Array = new Array();
function Init();
// Images urls are loaded into an array before this call
LoadImage();
function LoadImage()
    if (img < myImages_array.length) // img is the current image index and myImages_array is my array of URLs
// I need help with this part please
      var loader:Loader = new Loader();
// returns the image full path and load it
        loader.load(new URLRequest(my_site_url + myImages_array[img]));
        loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, imageLoaded);
    else
        if (count == 0)
// When everything's loaded, I'll start loading my Bitmaps into a small slideshow
            count += 1;
            init_slideshow();
function imageLoaded(e:Event):void
    var image:Bitmap = e.target.content;
// Bitmap manipulation here (removed)
    image_total = myBitmaps_array.push(image);
    if (img < myImages_array.length)
        img += 1;
// Call next image
        LoadImage();
function init_slideshow():void
// Reserts the current index for the first one
    img = 0;
// Start the slideshow since everything's loaded
    animate_slideshow();

If you look at the Flash help documentation for the addListener metod of the MovieClipLoader class, there is an erxample there that you should hopefully be able to work from. It will be better if you get your stuff coded into AS2 before you pursue more help with it. IT is difficult to tell you how to fix something if you don't show what you are using.
