I am looking for an application that would allow me to open a word doc, and take notes in the .doc using a stylus pen. I'd then like to convert those notes to text, and then be able to copy / paste those notes into an email. Does this app exist?

It seems like we were doing these same types of things with Palm Pilots years ago, one would think this would work with iPads?

I don't believe it will open a Word document, but Writepad allows for handwritten conversion of notes to text and then to email. Might help you some of the way...

i'm looking for an application which i can keep my data and password safe in my iphone

Look in the App Store on your iPhone 5S.
What 'data' and 'password' are you trying to keep safe?
Your data is best kept safe by regular backups to iCloud (which are only accessible via your Apple ID & password) or iTunes (which is stored locally on your computer, which has numerous security methods, including the ability to encrypt the iTunes backup).

i'd like to use the categories from my outlook contacts, i'm looking for recommended applications?

There is a third party I tried it. Didn't work for me because they wanted me to sync my contacts on their cloud. It doesn't work with USB Sync. But if you want to try it here:

Best would be if Apple adds the feature and supports the categories!!!

Detect if there is a new version for an application

How can I detect if there is a new version for the application?.
I want to know if there is a new version, and then restart the application to take the new version.
Is there an API for JWS or something similar to detect this?
Thank you

You can also specify that a jar should be updated on the server side by using the version="" tag on each jar resource. You also need a version.xml file that specifies a list of possible version numbers.
Having said this, I've yet to try it out. Have yet to find decent documentation on how to get it working (anyone?). But it sounds like a good idea since there are definite problems with the regular update mechanism.
For example, I've found that if my client tries to update while a copy of the App is running it won't work. Not only this, it seems to never work again until the client removes the App and does a full update again.

Including images in JAR for Swing Application

I am using a couple of images in a Swing application. When I create the JAR file I include all the images. The JAR executes fine but the images are missing. When I put the images in the same directory as the JAR file the images are properly displayed.
The code I use to display the images is:
JLabel label = new JLabel(new ImageIcon("pleaseWait.gif"));
Can anyone let me know what I need to do to get the image from the JAR? Do I need to look at ResourseBundle's?
Thanks for any help..

Does anybody know what is the reason of my problem??
I created a package called test in my eclipse env. and in that package I placed folder named graph in which there is a file Help.png.
Here is all the code I run in eclipse and it runs properly. When I create a jar file (using eclipse wizard) to execute without eclipse it can not execute and shows nothing (process starts and I have to kill it by myself in OS). Maybe there is some mistake with making jar... I do not know
So let someone try tu run my class or build jar file and try to execute and share his observations (solutions) ??
package test;
import java.awt.Toolkit;
import javax.swing.ImageIcon;
import javax.swing.JButton;
import javax.swing.JFrame;
import javax.swing.UIManager;
public class TestWindow extends JFrame {
     private JButton jButton1 = new JButton(new JARImage().getImage("Help.png"));
     public TestWindow() {
          this.getContentPane().add(jButton1);
          this.validate();
          this.setVisible(true);
     private class JARImage {
          protected ImageIcon getImage(String imageName) {
               ImageIcon image = new ImageIcon();
               try {
                    image.setImage((Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getImage(getClass()
                              .getResource("graph/" + imageName))));
               } catch (Exception ex) {
                    System.out.println("Image Error: " + ex);
                    ex.printStackTrace();
               return image;
     public static void main(String[] args) {
          try {
               UIManager.setLookAndFeel(UIManager.getSystemLookAndFeelClassName());
          } catch (Exception e) {
               e.printStackTrace();
          new TestWindow();

Looking for an application that has great time stretch capabilities

Hello all,
I have Logic Pro 8 and I am still learning its capabilities. I do alot of sound design stuff and am looking for a spectacular time stretching application. I've fiddled with Logic's time stretch algorithms but so far I'm not thrilled with the results. I'm interested in really stetching things out to create new sounds. Here is a great example from Nine Inch Nails. It's a remix of Eraser off of Further Down The Spiral.
This particular remix version is called "Erased, Over, & Out." Here is an amazon link to have a listen.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000VZOBGI/ref=dmmu_dptrk11?ie=UTF8&qid=1212078077&sr=1-1
The vocals are EXTREMELY stretched out and take the form of a pad almost.
He is actually saying, "Erase me." Keep in mind the original vocal is only about 3 seconds long. I'd like to provide that example but the Amazon sample isn't long enough to get to that part. Maybe download it to listen. It's called Eraser, it's from "The Downward Spiral" album. (1994)
Now, does anyone know if Logic is capable of getting this good a result like the sample I provided? I've seen PT Elastic Time stretching capabilities and it sounds awesome, at least what I've heard from their demo video on elastic time. Can the same results be achieved in Logic Pro 8?
If not, what plugin do you recommend that could achieve this EXTREME time stretching stuff. Or, does anyone know what Nine Inch Nails used to get that effect on the vocals for that particular remix? I just think it's a limitless tool for sound design, but right now I'm feeling limited in the sound quality department. I know I can keep stretching and stretching and stretching the sample region but that sounds a digital mess when I get it to the point were I want it, so please, don't suggest I do that, unless you know a way to make it sound REALLY GOOD in Logic using the algorithms that come with the program. Step by step info would be lovely.
Thanx in advance...

Loading Sound Clips For Swing Application

I have searched all the forums, din't find what i want.
I have many small sound files to be played in my application. Even on mouse Pressed, Drage etc etc....
Now I was looking for a better way of Loading the Sound files in memory as the application starts.....
If I use the Clip Interface of javax.sound and initilize them and open a stream, invoke the open() method, and store it in hashmap. So that when ever i need that file i will lookup for that clip and trigger the start() method which actually plays the sound. IS the approach the right approach, will not the Cip object keep the IO handle open, I have nearly 40 Clips to be loaded.
Can any one suggest me the better way of implementing this.
TIA
Zoha

Please be aware that this is a 4 day long weekend in some parts of the world and the day after a 3 day weekend in much of the rest, so patience please.
On your sound question, you have control of the AudioInputStreams and can close them as needed, you should check to ensure that there aren't a lot of unwanted threads hanging around. If the clips are short and encoded in PCM format you could use the Applet.AudioClip class, your code doesn't need to be an applet.

Hi,
Try the following
First of all, see if you can uninstall your current version of HP Support Assistant by using the Microsoft 'Fixit' on the following link - this is particularly useful in correcting issues that may prevent reinstallation on machines running a 64bit OS.
http://support.microsoft.com/mats/Program_Install_and_Uninstall
If this completes, restart the PC.
Next download and install the latest version of HP Support Assistant from the page on the link below - the download links are towards the bottom of the page.
http://h18021.www1.hp.com/helpandsupport/hp-support-assistant.html
After the installation, restart the PC again.

Guidelines for deciding directory structure for Swing Application

Hi,
We are developing a Swing Application for our organization. We want to organize the code and resources/icons/properties files in correct manner.
We have guidelines for arranging the code for web application. Is there any such guidelines available for desktop application as well? What is the preferred location for keeping the icons and properties files?
Regards,
Manu

Thanks Maran.
I have already checked many installation guides before posting here. All of them mention about creating folders like /admin or /oradata on various mount points but none of the naming conventions really indicate whether it is a 8i database or a 10g database.
This is required when you are having multiple Oracle installations under /opt and databases are running from different mount points.

New look for site; please comment

Hi there.
My question concerns (new look)
http://www.sincro.co.za/new-test.php
and
http://www.sincro.co.za
I have changed the background from white to gray and also
changed the
colour of the text.
My wife says the new look is very dull. Ignore the menu and
other graphics,
but just teel me what you think about the general look &
feel. You are
welcome to make suggestions.
Regards,
Deon

Hello there,
Now, I know it's not always easy accepting peoples feedback
but the thing you must remember is that there must be a reason for
saying it - it's also a lot to personal preference.
Personaly, I wouldn't use the grey, stick with bold colors,
for example, black or white. The menu doesn't really go with any
other colors on the page - try to stick with different shades of
the same color or perhaps similar colors. One thing which I really
am not very convinced with is the gradients in the menu (when
open), they make it look very amaturish. Also, try to combine the
three images at the top of the page.
I'd be more than willing to help you in whatever way (graphic
editing, etc).
All the best,
Kristopher (UK).

New look for Arch website?

Just noticed the Arch site has a new look, and the title graphic is now a link
Nice work! Still nice and clean, just like Arch.
My only (admittedly small) gripe is that it looks quite blue on my monitor here at work.
I think I prefer the #f9f9f9 background of the forums to the new #eeeeff, but otherwise -- LOVE IT!

Meh old one was perfect IMO
While I agree the old one was fine; MANY MANY people just couldn't/wouldn't see it. You could direct them to the main page and say search for a package there and WAYYYY to many ppl would come back and say "I can't find it"
Just my guess as to the reason for different size/bg color of the search box

Looking for an applications elegant like 7-zip, not 7zX

is there a archiving and unarchiving application like 7-zip for mac.
to compress files. a good one. that support all the extensions for compression

Hi.
If you look for some elegant and simple to use compression utility, you should check iArchiver (it's commercial software).
Or you can take the plunge, and get Stuffit Standard or Deluxe.
Good Luck.

License for swing application

Hello guys,
I need your help about a question.
In the next days I'll develop a java application (swing application) for a customer.
What I need is to forbid possibility to copy this application on other pc, so I need some license system.
How can I bind installation of application (that is running of jar) on a specific pc and forbid to use it on other pc?
I need to do it without key device, but via software.
What's best solution for this issue?
I would appreciate any help,
Thanks

How exactly is that going to keep a user from using multiple copies on a single subscription?It isn't. And my message is that it isn't worth worrying about this ...
The business "requirement" you have is usually not "how do I prevent my customer from making multiple copies" or "how do I prevent people from copying my application illegaly". Your requirement is (or should be) "how do I make more money with this".
History has tought us that focusing on making the software hard-to-copy is a bad idea because the cost of making a reasonably well-working copy-protection is very high and even those are easily broken (it need only be broken once, then everyone can get a copy).
Now if you make buying the software actually provide some additional value (automated, timely updates; online support; access to a feature-request queue; ...) and keep the price reasonable, then "copying + using only half a product" becomes more "expensive" to the user than "buying and getting the full advantage".
I have to agree, 'though, that in the case of custom-built software for a single client that's not really relevant. I'd agree that you should simply request that they pay enough money so that you don't have to worry about copy protection. Maybe offer them the source if they do, so that they actually get some value out of it (see the theme? providing value for the money helps you get the money).
