Need help locating a Polygon class that works in double precision
The title says it all even though a class with floating points would be good too. ty :)
You could always make your own polygon class that encapsulates
java.awt.geom.Line2D
Line2D has float and double implementations

I need help with a PDF file that is an image, the "Read Out Loud' option does not work, please help!
I need help with a PDF file that is an image, the "Read Out Loud' option does not work, please help!
You mean an image such as a scanned document?
If that is the case, the file doesn't contain any text for Reader Out Loud to read. In order to fix that, you would need an application such as Adobe Acrobat that does Optical Character Recognition to convert the images to actual text.
You can also try to export the file as a Word document or something else using ExportPDF which I believe offers OCR and is cheaper than Acrobat. -

I need help in resolving a problem that prevents me from accessing the iTunes store. Message reads " iTunes cannot contact the iTunes store" and also says that my laptop is no longer authorized to access my account. Help!
Go up to the top of your screen on iTunes and click on 'Store'. Then go down to 'Authorize This Computer'. That should cover part of it unless you've already authorized a bunch of other computers to use your account. If that's the case, you'll have to go to one of those computers and click the button just below it to 'deauthorize your account' from that computer. If you're not able to access the store, check your internet connection to make sure you are connected. Hope this helps.. good luck!

on Windows 7, CS6 all products, but especially need help with ID. Fonts that are showing in other applications are not showing in ID.
The ID Program folder will be relevant to your OS...
I took a shot and right clicked on my Scripts Samples, choose reveal in Explorer and opened up the ID Program folder.
As shown, there is a Fonts folder.
Drag/Copy/Paste fonts to this folder. -
I need help locating where and how to update Mac OS-X to Mountain Lion.....Thanx....Jay
First update your 10.6 version to 10.6.8 from the software update under the Apple Menu.
This will add direct access to the Mac App store via a new application.
Now launch the App Store from your Applications folder - Its the new icon a letter A formed from a ruler pencil and pen on a blue circle !
Once launched you need to add your iTunes account details or create an account add payment details etc...
Sign in purchase download and follow install processes to upgrade to 10.8 Mountain Lion.
OH and to be safe BEFORE you install backup your current system to an external drive ! -
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.

Need help getting Adobe OnLocation CS3 to work with windows 7 64 bit. Any ideas?
Need help getting Adobe OnLocation CS3 to work with windows 7 64 bit. The program installed ok and the S/N took.
The program does record video and audio HDV M2T.
The problem is video doesn't display or play back on the monitor component @ 16:9 or 720 p. 4:3....
The scopes respond as do the audio components when recording. (with a blank monitor component).
The video does play back on my system no problem.
Any ideas?

I need help - My illustrator CS2 just quit working. Can anyone help?
I went to open a file yesterday and illustrator just freezes on me. won't open. I have uninstalled and reinstalled but no luck. My photo shop is working fine but Indesign now asks for serial number and then tells me it is not valid. Panic here as Adobe states they will not support/help me even if I pay. They say illustrator CS2 is to old. It does what I need for my business and must have it up and running again. Short of buying the update - does anyone out there know of something I can try to resolve this? HELP ME PLEASE???? Karen
You are a life saver!!!! It worked! Thank You so much - Why couldn't
Adobe just sent this to me in the first place. It would have made my life
soooooo much easier. Back in business again - just in time to get a rush
order handled for one of our customers. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU

of course all the commented out lines are not being used in the program anymore but just there till i have the program working with everything in it runs and performs the actions required now though ^_^

I NEED HELP My cellular data is not working! I called and went to Apple INC. And At
So after July 4th 2013 I experienced wi-fi problems. I wasn't able to keep connected and i kept getting kicked out my own wi-fi. I left it continue a while because i thought it was only temporary. But i noticed my cellular data with at&t hadn't been working properly for about a month. Then it started getting worse till the point now I cannot use nor wi-fi nor cellular data. I called Apple Inc., they thought it was a bug, and we took procedures for trying to fix it. We restarted it, and reset network settings. Finally they suggested calling or going into at&t. I called first and we did almost same exact procedures as apple. So I decided going into At&t, they changed my original sim card and was only recieving 1 bar of signal, but i was bad. I couldn't do anything. After they scheduled and appointment at Apple store, ugh! which was such bad service. People everywhere and rushed through my problem and he didn't even let me explain. He only suggested I buy their ipad exchaging mine. In which come on. I couldn't back up my photos and stuff that instant. I asked him to give me a minute and he never came back. Like what was the point of that appointmet? After leaving I walked about 2 streets down and all my cellular data bars and 3g were up. It only worked there and when i was driving home and got home nothing once again. Not even inside the store. i mean others wi-fi works in some areas and my cellular data was good until now . I know At&t told me they were not experiencing any technical issues and everything was good, so i know its not due to that. My siste's mini ipad is working fine, so is my sisters ipod. I really need help and someone to take time in reading this and or helping me.Please thanks!
Has any had you try a reset yet? Sometimes the WiFi & Cellular anntennas get wacky.
Hold Sleep/Wak & Home buttons until the screen goes dark and you see the Apple logo -
I need help with a backup file that was deleted and now undeleted from my hard drive
Last month (May 6, 2011), I was updating my iPod Touch 4G with the new software that came out. I always make a backup of my iPod's data before I update it. While my iPod was updating I left my iPod and computer alone and was doing things around the house with my mom. And when I was done I went in my room to see if it was done and my computer decides that it was going to freeze and crash on me (with my iPod plugged in and stuck on the updating or verifying software mode.) I managed to get my iPod back to working condition again but losing everything on my iPod. I formatted my computer hard drive but I managed to get back the backup I lost. I need help on getting the backup into iTunes so I can get my data back. I am not Jailbroken and I plan not to Jailbreak. I however saved the backup file in a folder other than the Mobilesync folder. I am also running on Windows XP. Someone please help me and thank you in advance!
I was able to backup my iPod and I tried to restore my iPod again and it goes through the process and everything but it restores the temporary data that I had on there. It didn't restore application data or the current photos and videos that I had saved in Camera Roll before this all had happened. It is almost like it goes back to factory settings but I have some photos that were saved on the other backup that I was temporarily running on. The backup that I am looking to restore is the only backup file in the Mobilesync folder as of right now the others are saved somewhere safe for right now. Why doesn't it restore my application data or my Camera Roll pictures and videos that I saved before my computer crashed last month? Can this problem be fixed?

Random freezes-please, somebody, help me find a solution that works!
I feel a little stupid posting a new thread for what seems to be (at the moment) a rather common issue, but almost every related thread I've come across seems to pin the blame on different things, and I want to consolidate all that I know about what's going on in one place.
On January 5 I reinstalled Arch on the family computer in my house, and for the first few days it seemed to be working OK, but as I was getting everything installed and set up correctly, I started experiencing random freezes. Every package has been up to date since this was a brand new install, and the whole reason I was reinstalling was because the old setup was really messy and on a really old hard drive. The old setup didn't experience any of these issues, however, which rules out hardware issues (the current hard drive was in the system, it just wasn't used for /). The computer passes memtest86+ and mprime stress tests.
First, the problem(s): random lockups. These range from application lockups that still allow mouse movement, but not clicking, with the keyboard remaining accessible, to full X lockups which disable mouse and keyboard functionality. The former have only occurred a handful of times while the latter occur much more often. I don't have an ssh server set up on this computer to know whether it would respond to use that way, but my assumption is that, yes, it would. This seems to be a rather prevalent issue right now, but like I said, a lot of people identify different causes and workarounds/fixes only work for some people.
A few weeks ago I looked around and everything I was finding suggested it was a video driver issue. I was using xf86-video-ati, so I switched to xf86-video-vesa. Things worked fine for about a day (which, for the record, is not uncommon; the problem seems to come and go, as for about a week the computer worked fine and then today I had four lockups in a row) but then it started to hang again. It's not a video issue. It's not a hardware issue. It's either a Gnome/GDM issue or an Xorg issue, a combination of both, or something else that is conflicting with either of those three.
I found this thread about X hanging whenever one presses enter. My issue seems to match the user in this thread (with it's corresponding bug report), because sometimes it hangs when I press enter—but only sometimes. The majority of the crashes, by my estimation, have nothing to do with whether or not I press enter. Often I (or someone else in my house) will simply click something and everything will freeze.
Beyond this I cannot really describe much else. However, here is some additional info which might help diagnose the problem.
From Xorg.0.log.old:
Fatal server error:
Caught signal 3 (Quit). Server aborting
.xsession-errors doesn't seem to contain anything worth noting.
When booting X also launches on tty2 instead of tty7. In the first few days after the install I seem to remember it launching on tty7 initially, but it's possible that my mind is playing tricks on me and this is not the case. If it is I do not know what accounted for the change. /etc/inittab is identical to the file on my personal PC which runs GDM and openbox, but which is experiencing no problems whatsoever, and X opens on tty7 on it (and which is also completely up to date). At post #13 in this thread there is a suggested edit for /etc/gdm/custom.conf, but it does nothing for me; X still opens on tty2.
GDM is the last daemon listed in /etc/rc.conf. I've tried loading the daemons before it backgrounded (with @) and also regularly (without), and neither makes a difference. The freeze often occurs when logging in or switching users, but I must emphasize that for the most part the lockups are completely random.
I am really hoping to find a fix, and the sooner the better, because 6 people regularly use this computer and constant freezes are unacceptable to my mind. I also fear that the exact same error has been occurring on my friends' business computer which I recently updated some packages on, since I've been getting emails about the computer locking up. Of course with that one I could simply downgrade everything I just updated, even though it'd be tedious to do so.

Actually, how will running gdm from inittab help with this issue?
And I didn't understand what you meant by "remove agetty from tty2"
You know, I am pretty sure that the issue has to be with xorg. I was having this issue a lot a month ago, but then, a certain upgrade of xorg fixed the issue. I was fine for a few weeks. My computer never crashed. But, unfortunatly, a package in that same upgrade was broken and I ended up upgrading the system again a few weeks ago. xorg also upgraded at the same time. Now, my computer keeps crashing randomly and in random ways.
I think that the best thing to do is to keep up with the xorg updates, find one that works for your system and have pacman ignore all upgrades to xorg after that.
Actually, if anyone can tell me how to downgrade xorg to its state 3 weeks ago, it would be absolutely awesome.
Thanks
Because if you use runlevel 5 you dont have agetty on TTY2 so it won't try and kill xorg all the bloody time
The problem is caused because GDM is starting so fast the XORG server it loads up checks for free VT's and finds TTY2 is empty and starts on it. THEN your inittab fires up agetty on TTY2.. which promptly causes hell to arrive in a handbag.
You really need to be less critical of people offering you advice.. and possibly even check what they have posted in the past.. like the threads from months ago dealing with this issue. (search is great you know) -
Need Help In "Custom" TopBar Class
New to Plumtree and need help to get rolling. Req's is simple thus far: To supress render of "Login" link in TopBarView for Guests if certain URL is captured at Request.
There were some topics here that suggests extending from the Class PlumtreeTopBarView.CS, I just need to identify which UI part that renders the "Login" html link to supress this. I got the function to use to capture the URL string -> GetRequestURL(), I am fishing info on where or what function in PlumtreeTopBarView I need to override to plugin a condition that if this URL string == <something> then suppress "Login" link, or the Search, or whatever elements in the TopBar I need to suppress if need be??
Is there some Help file in PT that I can reference that will enable me to find what namespace does GetRequestURL() belongs to? Please bear with me I am very new to PT code infrastructure, still trying to find stuff with strict deadlines. Much Obliged in advance...You just need to create your own version of PlumtreeTopBarView (original in com.plumtree.common.uiparts), and use CustomActivitySpace.xml to override that view with your own view. Your version would use some kidn fo logic to determine whether or not to display certain elements. TheUI Customization Guide should help quite a bit, and we have several quickstarts for overriding views you can start from.
Is there some Help file in PT that I can reference that will enable me to find what namespace does GetRequestURL() belongs to?I would simply do a string compare. Tokenize the URL into the base address / control arguments, perhaps splitting on the "?" symbol; then tokenize the base address on the ".". You'll end up with three strings. For portal.plumtree.com, the three strings would portal, plumtree, and com. You can then use those string in the logig you add to PlumtreeTopBarView.
