You can't use icloud to store photos. There's a service called photo stream which is used to sync photos from one device to another, but this can't be used to store photos permanently.
Always sync photos from a device to your computer, Then you can delete them from the device.
Read this... import photos to your computer...

Newbie, i have some question

i'm starting a work and i have some question.
do i have any advantage in storing procedures and functions in my database?
what happen if i do the command : grant create any view to user_xpto;
this is some really dum question but if you can help me i appreciate. before starting to work i realy want to undertand this. i'm doing this in oracle 9i and i am programing in pl/sql developer.

Hi Ricardo,
I don't think you've picked the right forum for your question, but I'll try and answer it anyway ;)
Yes there are huge advantages to storing your procedures and functions in the database. Note however that I would suggest you really use packages rather than standalone procedures and functions. The main reason for this is that you won't have the nightmare (that most of us encounter at some time o r other) of broken dependencies.
For me, the database is the place to store the logic that affects my data. If you have a routine that you use to create a customer (for example)...if you store that routine in the database (in a package) then ANY client application (Forms, C, Delphi, HTMLDB etc) will be able to call that routine. If however you coded that routine into your client app then you would not be able to reuse it and you would end up having to implement it in each client application. If you then have to change that routine then you would have to change it in multiple client applications as opposed to a single routine if you held it in the database.
The other big big BIG reason to put your code in the database, is that it will be far more efficient to put your code in the database and to make use of bind variables (etc) than to code it outside of the database.
There can be exceptions to this rule, for example if you have an incredible complex calculation that could be written faster in C then it could make sense to code the logic externally...however those cases are few and far between (in my opinion).
There are two groups of Database users in my opinion...
1) Those who use the database only store and retrieve data, they do all their logic in their client apps...don't believe in constraints, believe that PL/SQL isn't a real language etc....
2) The ones with the smile on their faces....
As for your question about "grant create any view"....ummm it will allow the user_xpto to create any view....it's quite "dangerous"...they could replace another users view...do you really want them to be able to do that?

Newb here witha few questions.

Not a newb to macs but to my powerbook. I had a Powermac G3 all in one beige with 384 MEGS of ram, 9.2 OS and a factory speed of 233 MGHZ clocked to 280 and 4 GIG HD and CD drive. It since died a few years ago when the power unit/supply...i am guessing, crapped out. I now just purchased a Lombard 400 MGHZ powerbook G3 DVD/CD, with 64 MEGS of ram and a 6 gig HD. There is some things i need to get for it...ram, batteries and a bigger hardrive but i am happy with it. I am running 10.2 on it right now and REALLY need more memory. I am about to install 9.2 on it as well. My question is the PC slot on the left side, what can go there? I know the 333MGHZ Lombards use a DVD decoder there but mine does not since its built in. What sorta things can go there? Also i have a 10.3 CD here...should i install it as wellor will it make it run slower since i only have the 64 MEGS right now.

Brandon:
Here is one topic in Discussions that might give you some clues.

I'm a newbie: I have a question about threads

midp 2.0
Java SE 5.0
J2ME version 2.2
Below is my code I'm stucked with..... The code here shows a midlet class
and another class derived from Thread (NetworkThread). This NetworkThread
gets started from the main midlet... Search my code for the term ??????? and
there you find my trouble area... What I'm having trouble with is that at
that point in my code a NetworkThread has been given a url to access, and
putting network access in the main thread is a bad thing because one can
never know how long it takes to access the server... I want this line:
System.out.println("NETWORK COMMINUCATION DONE"); to be processed after
NetworkThread is done requesting the url.... I'm not sure how to solve this
code so that the midlet waits for NetworkThread to access the url... But
while NetworkThread access the url I want the midlet to response to user
input, I don't want it to look like the midlet has crashed......
Any tips on how I can solve this issue will be greatly appreciated...
By the way, if you see anything else that could have been improved in my
code, then please tell me about it too....
MY CODE:
NETWORKTHREAD:
package com.test;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.*;
import java.util.*;
import javax.microedition.io.*;
public class NetworkThread extends Thread
private boolean networkStop;
private boolean networkPause;
private HttpConnection httpConnection = null;
private InputStream inputStream;
private String Url;
private String netCommand = null;
private String netArg = null;
private LoginForm loginForm;
public NetworkThread(String serverURL)
Url = serverURL;
synchronized void requestStop()
networkStop = true;
notify();
synchronized void resumeGame()
networkPause = false;
notify();
synchronized void setCommand(String cmd, String arg)
System.out.println("setCommand = " + cmd);
netCommand = cmd;
netArg = arg;
networkPause = false;
notify();
void pauseThread()
networkPause = true;
public void run()
networkPause = true;
networkStop = false;
while (true)
   if (networkStop) {
    break;
   synchronized(this) {
    while (networkPause) {
     try {
      wait();
     catch (Exception e) {}
   synchronized(this) {
     if (netCommand != null) {
       if (netCommand.equals("LOGIN")) {
         //Here some networking processing will
         //be done
     else if (netCommand.equals("LOGOUT")) {
     netCommand = null;
   pauseThread();
THE MIDLET:
package com.test;
import javax.microedition.midlet.*;
import javax.microedition.lcdui.*;
import javax.microedition.io.*;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.lang.String;
public class Test extends MIDlet
private Display display;
private NetworkThread networkThread;
private String Url;
public Test() {
    display = Display.getDisplay(this);
public void startApp() throws MIDletStateChangeException {
    if (networkThread == null) {
      networkThread = new NetworkThread(Url);
      networkThread.start();
else {
     networkThread.start();
public void destroyApp(boolean unconditional) throws
MIDletStateChangeException {
   public void pauseApp() {
   public void commandAction(Command c, Displayable s) {
     if (c == okCommand) {
       networkThread.setCommand("LOGIN", "arg1");
       System.out.println("NETWORK COMMINUCATION DONE");
}

You will probably need to learn about HTTP and XML to complete this project. If you don't know Java at all then I would suggest starting with tutorials like these ones first

About to buy a Mac Pro, have quick question please.

Hi all,
I am going to more than likely buy a Mac Pro 2.66 tonight or tomorrow, but I was wondering something in regards to graphics cars if any one could assist me.
I am planning to go with the ATI card and 2gigs of ram since I do some gaming on the side and plan to use bootcamp for that.
My question is that if I buy the machine in retail store, they do not credit the stock GeForce card and just add the ATI card in, so if I go that rout can both the ATI and Nvidia card both reside in the machine at the same time and be used in SLI mode?
EG: can I get the power of both cards or will I only be able to use the processing power of one card? If only one card then would I be better off configuring the machine online since they credit you the difference of the Nvidia card which saves roughly $150.00 off the order from doing it in a retail store?
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I am not worried about the $150.00, it would almost be worth it to spend the extra since the shipping time on the online configuration may end up costing almost the same unless I want to wait a few weeks for the machine.
Whats your thoughts on this? Is it worth it to buy in the store and use both cards or just buy online from apple and get the credit for the Nvidia card?
Thanks in advance!

can both the ATI and Nvidia card both reside in the machine at the same time and be used in SLI mode
No… SLI requires two Nvidia SLI capable cards. In addition, SLI is not supported under Mac OS X although does work, apparently, under Windows and Boot Camp. ATi's comparable technology is CrossFire.
would I be better off configuring the machine online since they credit you the difference of the Nvidia card which saves roughly $150.00 off the order from doing it in a retail store?
Financially yes as the Nvidia card is ultimately useless to you. One consideration though is the CTO conditions of return, or lack there of, in case you receive a DOA. In the US, amongst other countries, CTo unit are not returnable even if they are DOA so you should check the terms of sale in the country store you would buy from.
Whats your thoughts on this?
I, like many others, bought CTOs from the Apple Store so I don't think it's such a bad way to go. It also means you won't have any pressing need to open your new Mac Pro right away.
One thing you might want to consider though is to downgrade the standard 250GB hard drive to a 160GB drive and use the saving on a drive of your choosing. Apple tends to use OEM desktop drives that have unimpressive performance. The 160GB drive in my Mac Pro didn't even get turned on. It was a Seagate Barracuda 7200.9 if you're interested.

Slower than slow. Not the first I know but have some questions please.

Hello fellow Verizon users. First let me tell you about my pc. It's second hand, HP Pavilion, Windows Vista, 32-bit, Windows 7, sp2. Hope this helps. My router is Gateway Westell 7500.
I have been reading the replies to others who have posted that their connections are very slow, but do not understand the replies and don't have the technical know-how to report back all of the info.
There was one link that I did click on where I typed in the IP address and it brought up my router information. All but two headings read that , more or less if you don't know what you are doing..Don't! However I did write one thing down. One was the down speed which is 3360 Kbps, and the up speed is 864 Kbps. Does this say anything about why my internet is so slow?
In task manager I noticed that there is information .... Processes, performance, CPU Usage and so forth. Although these numbers mean nothing to me, do these stats say anything about why I am having this issue? I was told at one time that the Services tab that shows a listing of the names and status of functions that are running, needs to be cleaned up. Here again, I do not know what these functions are and what they are for.
When I first signed on with Verizon High Speed Internet, everything ran fine and fast. I have talked to tech support about this and they took control over my pc, but did not fix anything.
Off of the topic, but when I would try to get help on Verizon Help Page, all I'd get is IE Cannot Display This Webpage. Called tech support and they installed Google Chrome. So what did that do? Anyway....
Also, when the Verizon Internet Security Suite is scanning while I am online, most of the websites stop responding or it takes so long to open a website that I just shut down.
I am at a loss here and getting ready to trash the thing. Could it be the router, or something else? I have cleaned up, done defragging, deleted cookies and so forth.
Thanks for reading and for any advice that someone could give to a not so technical user.

Sounds like you've done much of what would cover a slow computer. if the system, booted into either Windows Vista or Windows 7 isn't feeling slow it's most likely something up with the Internet connection. We'll sort that out for you and also work with anything that needs to be tweaked on the PC to get the most out of the service.
We've established one thing already. Your line is synchronized properly for 3Mbps service, which is 3360/864kbps. This also signifies you are on G.DMT ADSL or another ADSL1 standard. ADSL2 and ADSL2+ modes display different sync rates for the same speed.
If you could, can you supply to us a Speed Test from this website: http://web100.rit.edu:7123/ (needs Java) or for that matter, use http://www.speedtest.net/ to supply a speed test? The second site is easier to get results from as it gives you an image link. The first test is often more reliable for testing but you'll need to take a screenshot as lately they haven't been allowing Clipboard access due to tightened browser security.
In addition, if your service feels slow, does it only feel like this during the evening and night time hours or is it like this constantly, even in the morning?
Since you mentioned the machine getting really slow during a VISS scan, that makes me wonder: How much RAM is installed in your system? To find out go to the Start Menu, right click on Computer and then click on Properties. Under "Memory" it will display how much memory the system has, and if there is a certain amount of memory that can be used. Knowing that bit of information would be good too since a virus scan should not cause slow net performance unless the machine itself is loaded down. Your browser should be operating in RAM and using limited disk resources (which virus scans consume, due to Disk I/O).

I have a question please come

ok im doing a tutorial on how to make balloon shooter vin
flash, but then i come across this:
"4. Create a gradient panel with dimensions as 300px. X 35px.
and place it at the bottom of the stage"
WHAT IS A GRADIENT PANEL AND HOW DO I MAKE ONE!?!?!? please
help!

Sounds like they just mean a rectangle containing a gradient.
Use the Ractangle tool to draw a rectangle, make sure its still
seelcted and use the Properties Inspector to make it the
recommended dimension and add the gradient (click on the Paint
Bucket).
Does that make sense with the instructions after this step?

Migration Complete - SQL Server 2000 - But I Have a Question - Please Help

I just ran the Oracle Migration workbench and converted a SQL Server 2000 database to Oracle 8i. I did get a few errors and warnings, all from the stored procedures. Which I will correct manually. However, when I log into DBA Studio, I can see the new tablespace for my converted database under storage. But theres nothing under the schema. Do I have to create this in order to manipulate the database. I wanna be able to modify some of the tables and stored procedures, but all I see in DBA Studio is the tabelspace for the converted database.
I hope someone can help me with this.
Thanks

If your migration was sucessfull, then the schema's would also have been created on the target Oracle environment. You can go back to the Workbench and check the oracle model, to determine what schema(s) would be created. You can also check the log, or run a report to determine any errors during the migration phase.

Have a question,please help

class LessonTwoA {
text = "I'm a Simple Program";
public static void main(String[] args){
System.out.println(text);
The Error messages shows "non-static variable text cannot be referenced from a static context".
I think the reason is "the text is not static variable so I have to create an instance of the class(LessonTwoA)",right?
Thanks a lot.

public void static main(String[] args) is a static method, which means that it can only reference variables that belong to the class - i.e. static variables. Generally main is used to run an application and so should not have access to one particular objects instance variables.
Do this
public class Thing {
private static String text = "A string of characters";
public static void main(String[] args) {
System.out.println("text = "+text);
}- hope that helped, Edd.

Newbie here with a question....

Why did the scratch thread below get locked?

Thanks. Just curious. Although I somewhat disagree. I realize he is complaining about the scratching issue. But, I think his thread had some support related topics in it as well. Such as how to LEGITIMATELY keep scratches from happening. I too have issues with scratching and yes, I have a cover and have had one since the day I bought it but it still has scratches.

First post, newb here.. simple question..

I seen that 2009.8 is more "automated".. and the defaults (as i've read) will most likely work..
after it's all done and have i have a blank screen with the prompt and i type root and hit enter and enter again (no password yet)(unless i make one during the process of install)
if i type pacman -S kde (that should install all of KDE and X)?
i read there's lil need to set up X any more?
did i read all this right?
thanks..
base installation of 2009.8 is easy.. its the next step where the wiki kinda stops..(at least I cant seem to figure what step is next)
i'm really after kde 4.3.1 (im using gnome now in ubuntu) but all i've read , it seems that archs ' 64bit kde is faster, more stable then kubuntu/ppa version of kde 4.3.x
and will mp3, avi, flash etc work out of the box? or do i have to search the forums to figure all of this out?
any help would be most appreciated..

I to had trouble the first time I attempted to install Arch... I gave up for a week and then decided to try again... and the second time everything just worked... My only advice is that likely your missing a step in the Begginers/Installation guide... if you have another computer that can load up the guides and continually reference them while you are installing I am sure you will be able to successfully install arch... From your initial post it seems like you didn't even bother reading large portions of the guide. Arch isn't mean to be a GUI do-it-all install... it is meant to be customizable to the individual users needs... The ArchWiki is the best resource to date that I have found... it is very well put together... 90% of the all the problems I have ran into are quickly solved by doing a quick google search "problemX archwiki" and if for whatever reason their happens to not have an entry on it... "problemX archlinux" seems to pop up relevant forum posts. I really do not see how their could be a simpler guide while still retaining the ability to customize the distro to each individuals liking and personally I do not find it that difficult or convoluted... it separated into easy to follow steps... albeit I will grant you a semi-long process (once you have done it once... it doesn't seem so long the second or third time you do it). By the time you do get installed you will have learned more about your system and that knowledge will help you in being able to track down problems as they arise or at least be able to post up the necessary information that will help fellow forum users in diagnosing/solving your issues. That being said... if you enjoy your previous distro and it does everything you like... then stick with what works... but just realize you are missing the brilliance in simplicity that is Arch ; )
