No images on Mac: please help me!
Hi all,
I've the following problem: my java application (that is all written in awt to be used with Windows jview) run perfectly under windows but when I try to execute it on a Mac (with mac OS 9 with java 1.3.1) the images (all gif or jpeg) aren't displayed.
I use the following class to represent draw the image:
public class IconLabel extends Label {
private Image image;
public IconLabel() {
super();
public void setImage(Image img){
this.image= img;
public void paint(Graphics g){
int height = this.image.getHeight(this);
int width= this.image.getWidth(this);
g.drawImage(this.image,0,0,this);
this.setSize(width+5,height+5);
public void update(Graphics g){
int height = this.image.getHeight(this);
int width= this.image.getWidth(this);
g.drawImage(this.image,0,0,this);
this.setSize(width+5,height+5);
public void repaint(){
int height = this.image.getHeight(this);
int width= this.image.getWidth(this);
Graphics g=this.getGraphics();
g.drawImage(this.image,0,0,this);
this.setSize(width+5,height+5);
public int getHeight() {return this.image.getHeight(this);}
public int getWidth() {return this.image.getWidth(this);}
Anyone could help me?
Thx inn advance
Here is the code where I load it:
private Image image1;
private IconLabel label1 = new IconLabel();
this.image1 = toolkit.getImage("images/image1.gif");
label1 .setImage(image1 );
then I simply add it to a Panel.
Thank you.

My app store is not working after installing mavericks. When I open app store it repeatedly asking me to login with apple ID and to provide User name and Password for proxy authentication in a loop.I am a newbie to mac,Please help me.
Hmmmm... would appear that you need to be actually logged in to enable the additional menu features.
Have you tried deletting the plists for MAS?
This page might help you out...
http://www.macobserver.com/tmo/answers/how_to_identify_and_fix_problems_with_the _mac_app_store
Failing that, I will have to throw this back to the forum to see if anyone else can advise further.
Let me know how you get on?
Thanks. -
I followed this procedure to check my files:
Please read this whole message before doing anything.
The following procedure will help whether your system has been modified. Don’t be alarmed by the complexity of these instructions — they’re easy to carry out and won’t change anything on your Mac.
These steps are to be taken while booted in “normal” mode, not in safe mode. If you’re now running in safe mode, reboot as usual before continuing.
Below are instructions to enter some UNIX shell commands. The commands are harmless, but they must be entered exactly as given in order to work. If you have doubts about the safety of the procedure suggested here, search this site for other discussions in which it’s been followed without any report of ill effects.
Some of the commands will line-wrap or scroll in your browser, but each one is really just a single line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, and you can then either copy or drag it. The headings “Step 1” and so on are not part of the commands.
Note: If you have more than one user account, Step 2 must be taken as an administrator. Ordinarily that would be the user created automatically when you booted the system for the first time. The other steps should be taken as the user who has the problem, if different. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this paragraph doesn’t apply.
Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the page that opens.
When you launch Terminal, a text window will open with a line already in it, ending either in a dollar sign (“$”) or a percent sign (“%”). If you get the percent sign, enter “sh” and press return. You should then get a new line ending in a dollar sign.
Step 1
Copy or drag — do not type — the line below into the Terminal window, then press return:
kextstat -kl | awk '!/com\.apple/{printf "%s %s\n", $6, $7}'
Post the lines of output (if any) that appear below what you just entered (the text, please, not a screenshot.) You can omit the final line ending in “$”.
Step 2
Repeat with this line:
sudo launchctl list | sed 1d | awk '!/0x|com\.(apple|openssh|vix)|edu\.mit|org\.(amavis|apache|cups|isc|ntp|postfix|x)/{print $3}'
This time, you'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning not to screw up. You don't need to post the warning.
Note: If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before taking this step. If that’s not possible, skip to the next step.
Step 3
launchctl list | sed 1d | awk '!/0x|com\.apple|edu\.mit|org\.(x|openbsd)/{print $3}'
Step 4
ls -1A /e*/mach* {,/}L*/{Ad,Compon,Ex,Fram,In,Keyb,La,Mail/Bu,P*P,Priv,Qu,Scripti,Servi,Spo,Sta}* L*/Fonts 2> /dev/null
Step 5
osascript -e 'tell application "System Events" to get name of every login item' 2> /dev/null
Remember, steps 1-5 are all drag-and-drop or copy-and-paste, whichever you prefer — no typing, except your password. Also remember to post the output.
You can then quit Terminal.
I believe that I have a keylogger or some sort of spyware installed on my mac, please help!
POST YOUR OUTPUT FOR REVIEW/COMMENT.
After running these commands, here is the output. Can you please tell me if you see anything here. I would be so grateful.

my iphoto wont open since i updated my mac, please help? it says i need to install an iphoto library upgrader which I have installed but still cant see my photos.
What version of iPhoto are you using? 9.6 is the current version.
Do a backup.
Quit the application.
Go to Finder and select your user/home folder. With that Finder window as the front window, either select Finder/View/Show View options or go command - J. When the View options opens, check ’Show Library Folder’. That should make your user library folder visible in your user/home folder. Select Library. Then go to Preferences/com.apple.iPhoto.plist. Move the .plist to your desktop.
Restart, open the application and test. If it works okay, delete the plist from the desktop.
If the application is the same, return the .plist to where you got it from, overwriting the newer one.
Thanks to leonie for some information contained in this. -

On several occassions everything I had saved on my MacBook stopped working. All the icons I had once placed on my dock disappeared and my settings were changed. Some of the programs I had previously downloaded were no longer available and I lost all the information that was on it. In addition, my Idisk was removed from my desktop, the songs on my Itunes lost, and I wasn't able to even download all of the songs from Itunes (my friend downloaded the same album on his Mac and all songs downloaded). Now I tried to download AOL and it says "no mountable file system" and it works perfectly on my friends MacBook.
I've had this computer for 3 months...so I have NO IDEA what this means or what to do?! Can someon please help me? I use my computer for school and now I'm scared of using it because I might lose all my work.

I can't open an image in Firefox, please help..
I am using Firefox 11 UK edition on a HP Laptop running Windows 7.
I like to view images in FF instead of Micro-craps image viewer programs. Until recently I had no problem with that. I would right click on the image and select open with FF. Today all of a sudden it wont do it.
Today when I right click FF is not an option. When I do the browse thing and choose the program manually nothing happens at all.
I mean nothing at all, its like windows doesn't see FF at all. It is very frustrating.
The image will then open in MS Image Viewer.
What is so off is it will allow me to use ANY other program even programs that not designed for it. (I will just get an error of course when it tried to open).
It almost appears as though MS has done something to purposely not allow FF to do this.
Please help!do a reinstall on firefox

Pixelated images in safari, please help.
Hi everyone,
Hoping someone can help me with a issue i have with my new macbook pro.
When browsing the net, safari and firefox show really pixelated images. I thought it might be my internet connection compressing data or something, but i have tried other computers on the same internet connection and the images show perfect...
So this makes me think its the macbook. I have upgraded snow leopard from 10.6 to 10.6.2 and updated safari, but unfortunately this didnt help my problem. So now i have ended up here, asking you people, coz im out of ideas.
I will include some screen shots so you can see exactly what i mean.
Notice the bad quality images and even on google's banner it is pixelated heaps...
Please help if you can. Its very annoying. Cheers.

http://i134.photobucket.com/albums/q93/Bonustokin/randon/Screenshot2010-02-13at1 00814PM.pngYes, I see the big ugly squares. They are what appears whenever extremely heavy JPEG compression is applied to a low-resolution image tht has relatively large areas of similar colors. Something somewhere is applying such compression to the pages, or portions of them, that you are viewing in your browser(s). Your MBP is not doing that: it can't. Either the page images (or parts of them) are being compressed by the website owners or, if every web page is affected, they are being compressed by your ISP in the process of being transmitted to you, as Gordito suggests. That would greatly increase the speed of page loading, but at the expense of image quality. You wouldn't see the image degradation on an iPhone or cell phone — the screen is too small — but on the MBP's high-resolution display it would be much more apparent, IF the MBP were receiving the signal in the same highly compressed form as the phone. If the MBP receives the same web pages through an ISP that doesn't over-compress them, they'll look the way they ought to look. So if you are receiving these web pages through a cellular ISP rather than through a broadband connection, take the MBP to a wifi hotspot and connect through wifi instead. I bet things will look different then.
