Need help somebody! (G4)

I have a pavillion G4-1001tx (old laptop?) and i have a question here.
When i want to photo in photobooth online, youcam, and skype, they said "cannot detect camera".
HELP MEH PLEASE!

If your Mac didn't original ship with a Superdrive (built in) then likely you didn't get a copy of iDVD. Certainly it wouldn't have been installed on the computer, but you might find the restore DVDs do not have a copy either, if Apple made up different versions for Superdrive vs. Non-Superdrive version of your Mac.
You might download and try an application called Pacifist...

If your restore disc has iDVD, then Pacifist should find it and allow you to install it.
Your other option would be to buy a copy of iLife 4 or higher to get iDVD.

    Recovery Mode
    1. Disconnect the USB cable from the device, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
    2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
    3. While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
    4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears, release the Home button.
    5. iTunes should alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click OK, and then click Restore to restore the device.
    Note: You need to be patient and repeat the above many times to recover your iPad. Data will be lost.

    I have my post dont want to duplicate it

    The problem doesn't lie with your feed, although it does contain an error - you have given a non-existent sub-category. You need to stick to the categories and sub-categories listed here:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/podcasts/specs.html#categories
    Subscribing to your feed from the iTunes Store page work as such, but the episodes throw up an error message. The problem lies with your episode media files: you are trying to stream them. Pasting the URL into a browser produces a download (where it should play the file) of a small file which does not play and in fact is a text file containing (in the case of ep.2) this:
    [Reference]
    Ref1=http://stream.riverratdoc.com/RiverratDoc/episode2.mp3?MSWMExt=.asf
    Ref2=http://70.33.177.247:80/RiverratDoc/episode2.mp3?MSWMExt=.asf
    You must provide a direct link to the actual mp3 file. Streaming won't work. The test is that if you paste the URL of the media file (as given in the feed) into the address bar of a browser it should play the file.

  • I would like to remove a short gray edge from two images. I need help in that I am not yet able to use PhotoShop. Could somebody kindly help me with this?

    I would like to remove a short gray edge from two images. I need help in that I am not yet able to use PhotoShop. Could somebody kindly help me with this?

    I doubt it Doc Maik, but I am certainly happy to learn The image is this one (and a similar one). They would be beautiful portraits if not for the "extra mouth". The grey edge that I would like to remove is the excess of (grey) mouth that is actually my horse's chin, but that in the pictures looks like a wider, looping mouth. Practically, looking at the picture, the "extra mouth" to the left. What I would love it to be able correct that to look like a normal mouth, which means that half of the protruding edge should be removed. I am not sure I was able to explain myself, but here is one of the two pictures. I thank you for you kindness in being available to advise me.

  • Need help in writing a vbscript

    Hi,
    I need help in wring a vbscript. I have serached for the vbscript on the net, but could not find any.
    I need to add a file to an msi using vbscript. - That's the requirement.
    For this I have done the following with the help of vbscript.
    1. With the insert statement I inserted a new copmonent in the FeatureComponent Table.
    2. Now the next thing I did is, I inserted a new row in the File table using insert statement again. The file is uncompressed.
    3. Since the file is a non-version file I also added a row in the MSIFileHash table.
    4. Also, now added the Component in the component table.
    After doing this I am able to see the chnages in the mst, however whrn I try to install it I get an error 2725 (Invalid database tables).
    Can somebody please post a vbscript which can add a file to an msi?

    Hi All,
    Thanks for all your responses.
    Yes, It is not so easy. I never said it was.  Thanks for pointing out Orca. We use Orca on a daily basis.
    What exactly I am looking at, is this.
    We have some standard applications which needs to be repackaged every month. The repackaging process is same and does not change at least for these packages. So I was actually looking at automating these things.
    What I did so far.
    First we have created an object for Windows installer. I have then taken a copy of the original msi and then opened the database of this temporary msi database in transact mode. Once the database is opened we can use select, insert, update
    and delete statements to update the database.  
    I could successfully add a registry to the msi. The component was also added successfully to the component table. I also could make changes to the Property table.
    The tricky part comes with the addition of file to the file table.
    The addition of file requires the following steps.
    1. Add a new row to the file table. This can be done with the Insert statement.
    2. We then need to associate the file to a new component or any other component already existing in the msi. In my case I am creating a new component.
    3. We then have to associate this components to a feature in the FeatureComponents table.
    4. Since the file I am adding is a non-versioned file, a new row also has to be added to the MSIFILEHASH table.
    I could see the changes that I have done using the mst. But when I try to install the msi with the mst, I get the error 2725. I checked everything. All the other steps except for the file addition works fine.
    To check whether I am indeed right, I have did this.
    Skipped the file addition part to the msi. Every other change that I make works and I am able to install the msi with the mst successfully.
    For obvious security reasons I will not be able to share the vbscript with you. If you guys think, that this is not a right forum for this question, please let me know the right forum. I have been stuck with this issue from the past 6 months. Any help would
    really be appreciated.

  • Need Help Putting Together a rMBP so I Have Everything I Need...

    Hello-
    I am having trouble getting the right kind of help from "Chat Now" on apple.com and calling in to get my questions/needs taken care of so that when I get the rMBP I will be sure I wil have what I need to go right online and teach the online courses. I even went to the local apple store and woked with a couple sames guys there, but they were not clear in a couple situations on what I would need with the different options the rMBP gives. so I am truning to the great apple forum for additional help.  this might be too much to ask even for tis forum, but if I can learn a little at a time, maybe I can gradually gain the knowledge I need to have a complete and functioning home office for my personal computing needs and my needs as an online teacher at a university back East. My technical knowledge is not the best, so as far as the rMBP goes, a big problem for me is that I do not have the knowledge to make sure I order everything I need with the changes a new rMBP will bring to my current setup (which is just a basic MBP using a wireless router and a USB cable for the printer that I just connect when I need to print). I realizee my current set up on my desk is not the most advanced, but I would need a pro to come to my office and help me get the best set-up for what I am curently using. It seems that the agents I chat with and/or talk to on the phone are aslo lacking in knowledge to help me put together a rMBP that will be ready to fully use and have with the order all that I need so that I do not have to order additional items in a mad rush to be ready for the courses I am teaching online. I have read several articles about the rMBP so that I cold have some knowledge about what I will need but as I said my techie knowledge is lacking. I am looking at the 15" rMBP with all of the full upgrades that the configure option allows one to get. I am not clear if I do run into trouble with my wi fi and have to use my ethernet cable what I will need to do this. I also have programs that are older that I am guesing I will need to install using a DVD player. I would like to hook up the printer I have or a new Canon printer and use it wirelessly, but for now I will most likely be using it with a USB cable. I am not clear on the thunderbolt technology and if I should get any of these cables for any of the connections. I also would like to get a great speaker system and will need to hook that up, but I am not clear on the best way to do this. I have been wanting an iMac, but I am not sure what is a good slection to get and how to connect it to the rMBP or one of the other 2 older MBPs I currently have.
    If somebody could list for me what I would need to have a complete rMBP that will allow me to do these hookups and connections and explain what would be the best way to complete the various connections so that I have all that I will need to get up and running, I would really appreciate it. Because I do not have any USB 3.0 cables or cables for various additional connections, I would need help/suggestions in this area. I realize this is hard to do not seeing my office, but since I will be starting new with the purchase of the new rMBP and hopefully an iMac (and a new Canon printer and new set of great sounding speakers) getting some advice on what I should order for the various connections would be a hugh help. Part of the problem is with the rMBP and not having used one of these in the past. I know some of the differences with this machine like the lack of an internal SuperDrive and the new ports, but I do not know what cables I will need that will utilize the newer technology this machine and an imac will bring to my office.
    Any suggestions are greatly appreciated, even if you do not give me specific answers, but an idea, for example, of what I might need to connect the speaker system (knowing the best way the new speaker system shold be connected to the rMBP and/or the iMac. I am not even clear if I do want to use the iMac with the rMBP for teaching with a larger display what I will need to connect the imac to the rMBP. is this done by an HDMI cable and if so is there a specific type or example you could mention that is on apple.com?

    There are many differences with the new rMBP. There are ports that I am not sure what I would use them for.  Even the ethernet cable I use now to get the internet will not work with the rMBP.  I thought there would be some additional help on here.  as far as configuring the rMBP there are just a few options but the differences between an older MBP and the new rMBP is great.  No need to reply I will turn off email notifications. I gave as much information as I did because in the past I was told to give more information.

  • I need help in getting VZ to fix my DSL speed - they refused to fix it two times

    I live in E. Boston and opened a trouble ticket on 8-26-13 for slow internet speed. Ticket number was {edited for privacy}Agreement was made for a tech to arrive on the 28th between 1 and 5 PM. Somebody showed at my door on the 28th at 11:15AM. He immediately said that he had already done some outside checking and there was a problem outside of my home. I showed him my slow connection speed and he left saying he would be back later. I saw him on poles around my home and he called later saying he needed help from his office and would let me know the status by 3PM or so. I never heard from him again. I continued to check the ticket status and it was open.
    On Friday, Aug. 30th, about 9:15AM, I received a call from a VZ telephone tech named Rich. He again did some outside checking and came into my home. I showed him my slow internet speed and he went back outside after telling me that he had no test equipment but he would go back outside to see what he could do and call his manager since he was not a VZ internet tech. He came back a little later and told me that he did all that he could do and asked me to run my tests again. I did so in front of the tech and the speed was at least 30% slower than it is supposed to be. The VZ telephone tech said he would call for help from his office to send a tech with proper test equipment and he left. A number of hours passed and the VZ telephone tech called and told me HIS MANAGER TOLD HIM TO CLOSE THE TICKET AND TO SEND THE MANAGER THE INFORMATION.
    I immediately asked for and got the name and office of the manager that did this and I have it. I will hold off posting it for a couple of days but then I will let everyone know how this Verizon manager performs as well as who he is. I wonder how his superiors will like that?
    Does anyone have any suggestions who in Verizon cares enough to get my problem resolved? I have already filed a complaint with the AGO today. Verizon does this to keep their numbers from being respective of what they really are as well as knowing that customers do not want to again walk through all of the crap in opening a trouble ticket in India. I have been in telecom for 45 years and this is just disgraceful. It is about time VZ developed some integrity.

    Your issue has been escalated to a Verizon agent. Before the agent can begin assisting you, they will need to collect further information from you.Please go to your profile page for the forum, and look in the middle, right at the top where you will find an area titled "My Support Cases". You can reach your profile page by clicking on your name beside your post, or at the top left of this page underneath the title of the board.
    Under “My Support Cases” you will find a link to the private board where you and the agent may exchange information. This should be checked on a frequent basis as the agent may be waiting for information from you before they can proceed with any actions. Please keep all correspondence regarding your issue in the private support portal.

  • Noob Needs Help! Please Please Please Help!

    MD doing reserach on Genetic Mutations, I really need help on this, I have never used PL/SQL. Can somebody help me with this?
    I have a view made of mulitple table that has following columns: diagnosis, patient_id, kindred_id, column_d, colum_e.... column_p where each distinct combination of column_d to column_p means one specific mutation. I want to group patients who have same mutation to find out the following:
    for each mutation(unique column d through column p), I want to find out how many families have diagnosis 1, diagnosis 2, diagnosis 3...
    The rule is the program will look at kindre_id first, to see if this person's kindre_id has been looked at. If
    so, jump it/ignore it. If this kindred_id has never been looked at, treat it as a unique family. Diagnosis count for that diagnosis will then increase by 1. Sounds easy, but I don't know how to write that for loop that will do for each unique (column d, column c, ... column p) do the following... Does such a thing exist?

    Hi,
    SELECT     diagnosis
    ,     COUNT (DISTINCT kindred_id)     AS family_cnt
    ,     column_d
    ,     column_e
    ,     column_f
    FROM     table_x
    GROUP BY     diagnosis
    ,          column_d
    ,          column_e
    ,          column_f
    ;     produces this output:
    DIAGNOSIS FAMILY_CNT COLUMN_D   COLUMN_E   COLUMN_F
             1          2 abc        bca        acb
             2          2 abc        bca        acb
             3          2 abc        bca        acbwhich is the data you want, but not in the format you want. You want to pivot the family_cnt column from the three rows into three columns in one row. For general information about how to this, search for "pivot" on this or similar sites.
    One solution is:
    SELECT     COUNT (DISTINCT CASE WHEN diagnosis = 1 THEN kindred_id END)     AS diagnosis_1
    ,     COUNT (DISTINCT CASE WHEN diagnosis = 2 THEN kindred_id END)     AS diagnosis_2
    ,     COUNT (DISTINCT CASE WHEN diagnosis = 3 THEN kindred_id END)     AS diagnosis_3
    ,     column_d
    ,     column_e
    ,     column_f
    FROM     table_x
    GROUP BY     column_d
    ,          column_e
    ,          column_f
    ;     which produces the following output:
    DIAGNOSIS_1 DIAGNOSIS_2 DIAGNOSIS_3 COLUMN_D   COLUMN_E   COLUMN_F
              2           2           2 abc        bca        acbThis technique assumes that you know exactly how many different diagnoses there are and what the distinct values of the diagnosis column are. (I.e., in this example, I knew that that there were three diagnosie and that their values were 1, 2 and 3. I used that information to write three COUNT expressions, with values 1, 2 and 3 hard-coded into them.)
    So, what can you do if you do not know the diagnosis values? The columns have to be hard-coded into the query, so how can you possiblly write something today that will have all the values that are in the table next month? You can't, but you can write something today that you can run (unchanged) next month which will write such a query. In other words, you can do dynamic SQL, where you run a preliminary query to get the different diagnosis values, write an appropriate query similar to the one above, and then run that newly-created query. The PL/SQL command "EXECUTE IMMEDIATE" can help with this.
    The code above works in all versions of Oracle. In Oracle 11, there is a more straigtforward way of specifyng PIVOT in a SELECT statement.

  • NEED HELP...FORMATING SIZE PROBLEM

    I've been succesfully building and formating projects that only lasted 30 minutes.
    I'm having some problems with my latest project (1 hour and 20 minutes)...
    I did compress with "90 minutes best quality".
    and when I import in dvdsp, the file size is 6 GB.
    Now it won't format into a blank dvd-R.
    I am kinda new at this and need to put it on a dvd for a client.
    Could somebody tell me what should I do ?
    Should I compress again or can I still burn it with another form of blank dvd?
    I need help...
    Thank you.

    Make sure to select A.Pack/Dolby (make sure that file is made) and use that in the project, not the .aif file
