Newbie Q: How can I use swing on a Mac

Can anyone tell me how I can get the swing class libraries installed on my Macintosh? According to the MRJ 2.2.5 (Macintosh Runtime for Java) this is compatible with Swing 1.1.1. But where do I get the class library and where do I put it when I have got it. The only info I have is to see:
http://java.sun.com
Well here I am.
Anyone got any ideas.
Thanks.

You can use Parallels desktop or VM Fusion to run both operating systems at the same time. Both programs work well, but I personally perfer VM Fusion.

How can I use Back to My Mac using my Apple ID

I'm having problems accessing my other computers using Back to My Mac. I've gone into System Prefference>iCloud and turn on Back to My Mac on all mey devices. I've have also gone into my router settings and opened the appropriate ports. I can see my other divices in Finder. When I go to connect I am given a choice of "As a registered user" which works sometimes and not others and also "Using an Apple ID" when I choose this option my Apple ID appears in the drop down box (and is the only option in the drop down box). Howevere, when I click "Connect" it comes up with Authentication failed to JQ MacBook Air.
Any Ideas

How can I use Back to my Mac when my ISP blocks port 1900?

I was just forced to switch ISPs (don't ask...) and it turns out that my new ISP (Astound) lied to me and actually does block port 1900, which means that Back to my Mac (on which I rely) does not work.
Has anyone seen this and found a viable workaround? Preferably one that is easy for my non-technical family to use also, but all suggestions are welcome.
Thank you!

So, I convinced my ISP to open port 1900 and they did, but it's still not working.
I get two messages that make no sense to me, but I hope indicated something that someone here can help me undertstand...
When I open the iCloud preference pane in System Preferences, It says just below the Back to my Mac setting "Configure Router for better performance" - My Airport Extreme is configured with Back to my Mac and it looks like my account shows a green indicator.
Second, next to the Back to my Mac setting in the iCloud preference pane, there is a button labeled "Details..." When I click that it tells me that "Back to my Mac is not working properly because the DNS server isnt' responding" and suggests I contact my ISP for a different DNS server.
All other internet services - including iCloud services - are working fine. I even tried changing my DNS servers to Google's public DNS servers and nothing changed.
Any suggestions are very much appreciated! Thank you!

How can i use Mail on 2 macs with the same mail address?

Hi,
I have two Macs, connected through WLAN. From each Mac I can use Mail (sending and receiving) with the same mail address. This worked well; on each Mac I have separate files storing the mails (input, sent, trash, …).
Some days ago I had to change the provider. (Perhaps this may be the reason for my problem?) Now both mail systems are connected - in the way that if I put on Mac *1 a mail into the trash it is automatically thrown into the trash on Mac *2.
What is to be done to separate the two systems (i. e. make them independent of each other)?
Hans

It looks like you are using a IMAP mail account, a protocol used by most email providers nowadays. Read -> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_Message_Access_Protocol
The main feature of IMAP is the sync of all the changes you do on your mail account. If you want to keep your mails on one Mac, have a look at this site -> http://kb.mit.edu/confluence/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=3908294

How can I use IMac speakers on Mac Bk Pro?

I wantto use my Older IMac speakers (small, clear, round,cute) on my Mac book pro. Of course, it can't be a simple as "plugging them in". The plug on the speakers is larger than the openning on the PRO.
I'm thinking a gadget between the two should work but What?

If you're not going to use the drive on a Windows machine, you should use Disk Utility (Applications>Utilities folder) to erase the drive and format it as "Mac OS Extended (Journaled)" with a single GUID partition (default):
Good luck,

}OK, My questions are:
[1]. what I generated XML by XSTream is very complicated, especially for object LocationTest, Can we make it as simple as others such as Person object??
[2]. after I run it, LocationTest will popup and a red ball in a panel will dsiplay, after I change red ball's position, I hope to persist it to xml, then when I read it back, I hope to get same picture, ie, red ball stiil in old position, How to do that??
Thanks a lot!!

Positive feedback? Then please take this in a positive way: if you want to work on persisting Java objects into XML, then GUI programming is irrelevant to that goal. The 1,000 lines of code you posted there appeared to me to have a whole lot of GUI code in it. You should produce a smaller (much smaller) example of what you want to do. Calling the working code from your GUI program should come later.
