Need help with imessage and someone else getting my texts.
Yesterday i bought a phone, NOT A IPHONE, a samsung. And i got a brand new number. The number i got belonged to someone else before they changed theyre phone, the Person has an iphone but changed their number. They CHANGED their number, but for some reason they are receiving MY TEXTS (only from my friends with iphones/imessage
) i was able to get a hold of him and i told him to just turn off his imessage. I read online about that youre supposed to turn off imessage and reset network settings etc. but i did not know at the time i am worried he will sign back into his apple id and get my messages again, or because he turned off imessage and put it back on while my NOW number be erased from his phone? thanks.
Wow...OK...let me see if I can understand that...if I boil all of that down, I think we are at this point.
You still want to send SMS to an email account -- I stand by what I said before; I know of no method that an SMS can be sent to an email. Now, if you are meaning some other kind of "text" or "messages" (there are many many kinds of those), then you will need to clarify exactly what you mean. What I gather from what you've said so far continues to mean "SMS sending to Email".
You do not have BlackBerry Internet Service on your BB plan from your carrier. As such, you will be limited as per this guideline:

You may think that BIS is ridiculous, but that is a core function and feature of BB's. Period. Without it, all you have is a phone (IMHO).
Good luck!

Need help with trim and null function
Hi all,
I need help with a query. I use the trim function to get the first three characters of a string. How do I write my query so if a null value occurs in combination with my trim to say 'Null' in my results?
ThanksHi,
Thanks for the reply. What am I doing wrong?
SELECT trim(SUBSTR(AL1.user_data_text,1,3)),NVL
(AL1.user_data_text,'XX')
FROM Table
I want the XX to appear in the same column as the
trim.The main thing you're doing wrong is not formatting your code. The solution may become obvious if you do.
What you're saying is:
SELECT trim ( SUBSTR (AL1.user_data_text, 1, 3))
, NVL ( AL1.user_data_text, 'XX' )
FROM Tablewhich makes it clear that you're SELECTing two columns, when you only want to have one.
If you want that column to be exactly like the first column you're currently SELECTing, except that when that column is NULL you want it to be 'XX', then you have to apply NVL to that column, like this:
SELECT NVL ( trim ( SUBSTR (AL1.user_data_text, 1, 3))
, 'XX'
FROM Table -
If you need help with CPS and Contribute
After over a month of contacting support, I have come to the conclusion that Adobe does not offer advance support for CPS. The only thing that the low level tech support agents are capable of doing is
1. transferring you to someone else,
2. Sending you links to the online manual and livedocs that you have probably already read.
After spending over a month and roughly 100+ hours I have determine that CPS cannot handle multiple client certificates sent via a Department of Defense Common Access Card. I did learn the following info that you might find useful.
1. Contribute must be able to write a file to the root (when you 1st connect it writes TMPjaisd8ua89ua.htm then deletes it) If this failes for any reason, contribute gives you the ever so helpful could not connect error
2. contribute must be able to write / delete files in root/_mm
3. If you want users to send drafts contribute must have access to root/MMWIP
4. If you are using Contribute CS3 or newer and you remove a connection from a computer, the connection isn't really removed 100%, you must go into regedit, current user, software, adobe, contribute41 and clear out keystore, trusted CPS Server, Admin Servers. Just leave the defaults. This might be different for version 5
5. Work with an LDAP admin to get the correct LDAP settings so CPS can view the directory
6. If using multi LDAP servers ensure that replication is working correctly on them all otherwise your users won't be able to access the site if connected to a faulty LDAP server. Also make sure users can get to the directory via windows if using local/Network connection
7. Work with Network admin to have security logging enable on the web server so anytime contribute gives an error they can check the log to see exactly what your account was trying to do at the time of the error.
8. Read the Manuals, in fact memorize them.
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/Contribute/4.1_CPS/help.html?content=con_overview_ov_3.html
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/Contribute/4.1_CPS/help.html?content=con_setup_install_si_18.h tml
http://livedocs.adobe.com/contribute/311/deploying_en/wwhelp/wwhimpl/js/html/wwhelp.htm?hr ef=00000049.htm#134387
I hope this will shed a little light on CPS and contribute or if not then at least give you some direction on how to debug your problems since Adobe will never help you.Addition:
9. Create a folder on your desktop called "ctnetperformancelog" and then launch Contribute. Information logged in these files can provide invaluable insight in pinpointing where problems originate.
For example:
135 07/05/11 12:31:53 PM mmoreno netio/LAN PutData ACCESS_DENIED 5 5 0.0017 file://webdev/Dev/ /Dev/_mm/contribute.xml
This was the result of /_mm/contribute.xml inadvertently being marked read-only due to a dreamweaver misconfiguration.
See http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/195/tn_19506.html for more details.
Don't forget to delete or rename this folder (e.g. "ctnetperformancelog-DISABLED") after debugging since the log files can grow quite large. -

I need help with CSS and floating
Okay, I know I need to get up on CSS and get rid of tables in
my sites.
However, I'm running up against a problem, and after banging
my head
against it for a while, I realize I need help. I've stripped
this down
so as to only show the area where I'm having difficulty.
What I want is a page that has everything down the center,
taking up no
more than 750 pixels and no more than 550 pixels of width. No
problem there.
After the header and the top content, I'd like to have two
"columns",
each in it's own separately-colored box. I would like the
right-side
column/box to be a static size, while the left-side
column/box sizes
dynamically.
Where I'm having problems is that when one column is boxed,
it's fine,
but whenever I wrap each column in its own box, the
fixed-size box
either jumps below or above the other box (depending on which
one has
been floated and which order the div's appear in the code).
Here are the links:
CSS:
http://www.afice.org/stylesheet/floatmestyles.css
ex 1:
http://www.afice.org/floatme1.html
ex 2:
http://www.afice.org/floatme2.html
Before sending, I took a look again, just to see if I was
missing
anything. I did notice that it doesn't seem to be that the
box is
jumping down so much as it is that it's getting written over.
Anyway, sorry for the long-winded explanation. I hope I've
managed to
explain what I'm trying to do well enough that someone can
tell me where
I'm going wrong.
Thanks,
--KevinDo you want something like this:
http://www.pmob.co.uk/temp/spointfooter.htm
You will need to look at the code to see how it was done.
Otherwise, there are different examples here on Pauls' site:

Noob needs help with Logic and Motu live setup.
Hello everyone,
I'm a noob / semi noob who could use some help with a live setup using 2 MOTU 896HD's and Logic on a Mac.
Here's the scenario:
I teach an outdoor marching percussion section (a drumline and a front ensemble of marimbas and vibes). We have an amazing setup of live sound to amplify and enhance the mallet percussion. There is a yamaha PA system with 2 subs and 2 mains which are routed through a rack unit that processes the overall PA balance. I'm pretty sure that the unit is supposed to avoid feedback and do an overall cross-over EQ of the sound. Other then that unit, we have 2 motu896hd units which are routed via fire-wire. I also have a coax cable routing the output of the secondary box to the input of the primary box (digital i/o which converts to ADAT in (i think?)..?
Here's the confusion:
There are more then 8 inputs being used from the ensemble itself, so I need the 16 available inputs to be available in Logic. I was lead to believe that the 2nd motu unit would have to be sent digitally to the 1st motu unit via coax digital i/o. Once in Logic, however, I cannot find the signal or any input at all past the 8th input (of the 1st unit).
Here's the goal:
All of my performers and inputs routed via firewire into a Mac Mini running OSX and Logic pro.
I want to be able to use MainStage and run different patches of effects / virt. instruments for a midi controller keyboard / etc.
I want to be able to EQ and balance the ensemble via Logic.
Here's another question:
How much latency will I be dealing with? Would a mac mini with 4gb of ram be able to handle this load? With percussion, I obviously want the sound as latency free as possible. I also, however, want the flexibility of sound enhancement / modification that comes with Logic and the motu896hd units.
Any help would be REALLY appreciated. I need the routing assistance along with some direction as to whether or not this will work for this type of application. I'm pretty certain it does, as I have spoken with some other teachers in similar venues and they have been doing similar things using mac mini's / logic / mainstage / etc.
Thanks in advance,
ChrisYou'll definitely want to read the manual to make sure the 896HDs are connected together properly. ADAT is a little tricky, it's not just a matter of cabling them together. Go to motunation.com if you need more guidance on connecting multiple devices. Beyond that initial hookup, here are a couple of quick suggestions:
1. Open CueMix and see if both devices are reported there. If not, your connections aren't correct. Be sure to select 44.1kHz as your sample rate, otherwise you are reducing the number of additional channels. For instance at 88.2kHz you would get half the additional channels via ADAT.
2. You may need to create an aggregate device for the MacBook to recognize more than the first 896HD. Lots of help on this forum for how to do that. Again, first make sure you have the 896HDs connected together properly.
3. As for latency with Mainstage on the Mini, no way to know until you try it. Generally MOTU is fantastic for low latency work but Mainstage is a question mark for a lot of users right now. If the Mini can't cut the mustard, you have a great excuse to upgrade to a MacBook Pro. -
Hi, I'm trying to develop an application on a Machintosh OSX 10.2.8 machine.
I'm having a herrendous time trying to get quicktime to work on it.
I've somehow managed t oget 1.3.1 and QTJava.jar to work together but now i need encryption, however that requires 1.4+
Now 1.4.1 doesnt work with quicktime
I've downloaded the latest software upgrades but Ive got no idea how to set up quicktime to work with java 1.4.1
Now to add on top of that mac reports it can use AES encryption. this is from source code ripped striaght from this website.
But first and foremost can anyone, annyonee help me out with setting up 1.4.1 with quicktime?
Thank youIf you need encryption with Java 1.3.1, download the JCE from either Sun (http://java.sun.com/products/jce/) or Bouncy Castle (http://www.bouncycastle.org/).

URGENT! Currently abroad, need help with iMessage on 4S in Airplane Mode.
Hey guys,
As stated in the description, I need help turning on my iMessage on my iPhone 4S that's in Airplane Mode. Before I left California for vacation abroad, I accidently turned it off, now having problems turning it back on. It reads, "Waiting for activation..." under the iMessage switch. I tried turning my phone off then back on, but the message was still there. Any tips on what I should do? Since I'm in another country, I don't want to take it off Airplane Mode till I'm back home in California.
Thanks for your help in advance!James Ward4 wrote:
should it?
Yes.
I've never had to deal with that, and have turned iMssage off on the iPhone a number of times.
But you'll always had the ability to send an SMS, correct? Big difference.
I seen this before with users who turn off iMessage, as the OP did, put their phone in Airplane Mode, go to a foreign country, & then can't re-activate it. -
Newby to Flash -- need help with Drag and Drop
I have been trying to create a drag and drop in Flash where I have five different places for an instance of a mc to be dropped. I want to be able to drop only three instances to each place and these three instances are specific to one of the five "drop places". I also want the mc instance to go back to its original position if it is not dropped on the right place. I've got the actionscript working to drag and drop the mc instances on the "drop places" but I cannot figure out how to do the if statements so that if it doesn't match the correct drop place it will go back to its original position.
Here's some of my code:
Analyze1_mc.objName = "Analyze1";
Analyze1_mc.val = 1;
Design1_mc.objName = "Design1";
Design1_mc.val = 4;
Analyze1_mc.buttonMode = true; // sets mouse pointer to hand
Design1_mc.buttonMode = true;
Analyze1_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, fl_ClickToDrag);
Analyze1_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, fl_ReleaseToDrop);
Design1_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, fl_ClickToDrag);
Design1_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, fl_ReleaseToDrop);
var originalPosition:Point;

event.currentTarget.startDrag();
event.target.parent.addChild(event.target);
function fl_ReleaseToDrop(event:MouseEvent):void
var target:MovieClip = event.currentTarget as MovieClip;
var item:MovieClip = MovieClip(event.target);
item.stopDrag();
if (event.target.hitTestObject(AnalyzeTarget_mc) && (event.target.val == 1)) {
trace ("Analyze1");
event.target.x = AnalyzeTarget_mc.x + 42;
event.target.y = AnalyzeTarget_mc.y + 5;
updateItem(Analyze1_mc);
} else {
returnToOriginalPosition();
if (event.target.hitTestObject(DesignTarget_mc) && (event.target.val == 4)) {
trace ("Design1");
event.target.x = DesignTarget_mc.x + 42;
event.target.y = DesignTarget_mc.y + 5;
updateItem(Design1_mc);
} else {
returnToOriginalPosition();
function updateItem(item:MovieClip):void {
buttonMode = false;
removeEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, fl_ClickToDrag);
I put the trace in to check the function -- and I do get the output when the mc instance is dropped on the right place -- but there is no return to original position if the instance is dropped in the wrong spot and there is no update to the mc instance.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!That line you speak of is merely declaring a variable, nothing is being assigned to it.
One way of assigning the original position data to each object is to just assign it like follows:
Analyze1_mc.originalX = Analyze1_mc.x;
Analyze1_mc.originalY = Analyze1_mc.y;
etc...
Another way to do it with less code is to assign it generically just before you start dragging each of them...
function fl_ClickToDrag(event:MouseEvent):void
event.currentTarget.originalX = event.currentTarget.x;
event.currentTarget.originalY = event.currentTarget.y;
event.currentTarget.startDrag();
event.target.parent.addChild(event.target);
One thing I noticed in your code earlier is that you switch between using event.currentTarget and event.target. If you want to be sure that the object your code is targetiing is the object that has the listener assigned to it (your movieclips) stick with using currentTarget. target can end up pointing to something inside that object instead of the object itself. In the following lines...
var target:MovieClip = event.currentTarget as MovieClip;
var item:MovieClip = MovieClip(event.target);
You could very well be assigning target and item as being the same object. I don't think that is what you want. You might wanting to have one of them be the object you drop it on, which would be the dropTarget, not the target -

Need help with GetStringUTFChars and JAB
Please help,
I want to use the JNI function GetStringUTFChars with JAB (Java Access Bridge), without having to call JNI_CreateJavaVM as no matter what I do, JNI_CreateJavaVM fails. I have JAB successfully loaded, and I have used GetAccesibleFromHWND to get a valid jobect. Is there any way I can go from the jobect to use GetStringUTFChars?
If not, is the source code availabe for GetStringUTFChars? OR is there an Windows/C++ equivalent available?RPhilbrook12, you've reached the right place for information regarding how to suspend your line while you're deployed.

I am a rookie and need help with max and min values
Hello all, i am into this intro to java class. my assignment is to write a program that prompts the user for two integers and then prints the sum, difference, average, product , distance (absolute value of the difference) Maximum(largest of the two) and Minimum(smallest fo the two) here is my code so far
import java.io.BufferedReader;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.InputStreamReader;
import java.lang.Math;
public class Sample4
public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException
try // attempt the following
{ // create the stream to read from
InputStreamReader istream = new InputStreamReader(System.in); // create a buffer to hold the stream
BufferedReader console = new BufferedReader(istream); // prompt the user
System.out.println("Enter a number please"); // get input as a string
String input = console.readLine(); // convert to an integer
int num1 = Integer.parseInt(input);
System.out.println("Enter a number please"); // get input as a string
String input2 = console.readLine(); // convert to an integer
int num2 = Integer.parseInt(input2);
int sum = num1 + num2; // get the sum of the two inputs
int difference = num1 - num2; // get the difference of the two inputs
int product = num1 * num2; // get the product of the two inputs
int average = sum / 2; // get the average of the two inputs
int abs = Math.abs(difference); // get the absolute value of the two inputs
// new section
// display the number
System.out.println("The total sum = " + sum);
System.out.println("The total difference = " + difference);
System.out.println("The total product = " + product);
System.out.println("The total average = " + average);
System.out.println("The total absolute value = " + abs);
} // if something breaks, catch the exception
catch (IOException e)
System.out.println(e); // displays the exception
System.exit(1); // quits the program
}what will be the right syntax or code to find the MAX and MIN values of two numbers a User Inputs, hope someone can help with this. thank you for your help.Thanks alot man, sheesh i do not know why my book
doesnt give me all the static methods. but i do really
appreciate your help. peaceA complete list of the java.lang.Math methods can be found at http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4/docs/api/java/lang/Math.html
btw,
max(a, b) == (a > b) ? a : b
min(a, b) == (a < b) ? a : b -
Need help with backup and clean install
Need Assistance with G5
Background
I'm an inexperienced Mac user with a G5, twin 2.0 gig processors and 1.5
gig ram. The OS is v10.3.6. It is the latest OS that will not slow down
internet (Safari/Mail) applications. Anything newer has really slowed internet applications down big time.
Current Problem
I've probably messed up my hard drive by switching back and forth
(archive/install) from newer to present OS. I now have corrupted data and
while my Mac is useable, several things do not work (disk utility, printing
and possibly more). I have a mixture of new and older versions of
these applications/utilities in my OS.
Going Forward
I believe I need to wipe out my hard drive and do a clean install. I also have a Mac mini which I can use (I believe) for backup via firewire.
Backup
Is everything I need to backup in the "User" folder? My spouse and I have
separate accounts and a shared account on the same Mac, with a total of 8.5 gig of data, mostly photo's and music. We want to save that and the usual preferences and favorites/bookmarks/addresses/email, etc. It would be nice if all I had to do was drag the user folder into the target drive.
I'd appreciate any assistance. I have more questions which I'll get to later, but I need to start somewhere.
Thanks all
Mac G5Backing up your Users folder will save everything in all the accounts on the computer including pictures, music, preferences, etc. as long as they were kept in that folder.
If you have File Vault turned on you should turn it off. The "correct" procedure for transferring to your Mac Mini is as follows:
1. Turn both computers off. Connect them together with a Firewire cable.
2. Boot the G5 into Target Disk Mode.
3. Then boot the Mac Mini normally. The G5's hard drive should be present on the Mini's Desktop.
4. Create a new folder on the Mini and name it something appropriate like G5 User Backup. Drag the Users folder on the G5 into this new folder on the Mini.
After the transfer completes you should verify that everything has been transferred and is there in the folder.
5. Drag the G5's hard drive icon from the Desktop to the Trash or CTRL-click on its icon and select Eject from the contextual menu.
6. Shutdown the G5 and remove the Firewire cable connecting the two computers.
You can now proceed to fix the G5. Because you are planning to erase the hard drive I would like to suggest you do an extended format to prep the hard drive properly for your restoration:
1. Boot from your Panther Installer Disk. After the installer loads select Disk Utility from the Installer menu.
2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
3. Set the number of partitions from the dropdown menu (use 1 partition unless you wish to make more.) Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled, if supported.) Click on the Partition button and wait until the volume(s) mount on the Desktop.
4. Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
5. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled, if supported.) Click on the Options button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
6. Click on the Erase button. The format process will take 30 minutes to an hour or more depending upon the drive size.
You can then quit Disk Utility and return to the installer. Now proceed to reinstall OS X. Be sure you set up your accounts with the exact same usernames and passwords as you used before.
Once you have completed your reinstallation on the G5 you can restore your Users folder from the Mac Mini.
1. Shut down both computers. Connect them with a Firewire cable.
2. Boot the G5 into Target Disk Mode.
3. Boot the Mac Mini normally. G5's hard drive should appear on the Mini's Desktop.
4. Open a Finder window on the G5's hard drive and drag the Users folder to the Trash (don't delete yet.)
5. Now copy the saved Users folder from the Mac Mini to the G5 (only the Users folder, not the folder in which you stored it.)
6. Eject the G5's hard drive from the Mini's Desktop and shut down the G5.
7. Disconnect the Firewire cable.
Now restart the G5. If all worked well it should start up normally and you should find everything normal in your accounts.
There is one potential problem in all the above. All your account preferences are contained in the Users folder. If you have any corrupted preferences, they will still be corrupted and may continue to cause problems. If that's the case you may need to trash the /Home/Library/Preferences/ folder's contents. Hopefully, this won't be the case, but you should be aware of the possibility.
If eveything is working normally you can empty the Trash and delete the contents. Same on the Mac Mini.
