Not sure where this question belongs

I am looking for a Free software program to create Abstract Art from a photo in Iphoto. For example..distort a photo into psychedelic art or what some call computer art. Then also have the ability to print. I have just purchased Photoshop Elements 6 & waiting for delivery, not sure if this program can do Abstract art.
Any info would be appreciated.

JSP default error page - not sure where this goes

So I am not sure where the jsp section of the forums is but Ill post here ....
Any ways I dont like the look and feel of the current default error page when you throw an error on a jsp so i created my own cutom error page and set that as isErrorPage="true" then in the header.jsp I placed errorPage="error.jsp."
It doesnt work.
I have a jsp, a servlet and the error page. the jsp sends information to the servlet which sends the result back. if that servlet throws an error then it should be displayed on the error.jsp page where I told it to...How ever - it just goes to the default error page.
How do I fix this.
Sorry if this doesn't belong here not sure where else to put it. and in theory - it is java.

user8974754 wrote:
Yes its shown in the jSP. so how do I make the servlet be like "oh...thats the error page I want to display the error on"I'm pretty sure you can't, since it's a JSP mechanism, not a Servlet mechanism.
And even if it was possible, it's not something that could be recommended.
A normal way would be to catch the exceptions in your servlet and handle them there (log the exception and redirect to an error page).

Need urgent help with preview (not sure where this goes)

Hi,
Ok so I have a Mac OSX and I was editing one of the best pictures I have ever drawn, I have spent weeks working on it! I was absolutely finished it and admiring it in Preview and I was using Sketchbook Pro to edit it. Suddenly Sketchbook Pro quit working then I force quit it thinking nothing would happen! Then Preview stopped working and I quit that too. When I clicked to reopen the file I could not open it! The pop up reads when I try to open it that the file may be damaged or use a file format that is not recognized by Preview. Also the icon before was a small preview of what the picture looked like and then it was turned to the default image of preview. Preview could previously open it and now it can't, the file format the picture was in was .tiff and I checked if preview could open any other tiffs and it CAN! I hadn't activated Time Share either so I can not go back before my file was damaged. This is so maddening and I hope I will not have to start all over again! Please help me!!!!

I thought you might have saved it at the transitional spot iCloud. This transitional spot iCloud automatically saves changes. If it is not there and you dont have a backup of it, I wish i knew more. Sorry. This is my open screen in preview.

Not sure where this goes but...Firefox

Hi all,
I've installed Firefox, and when I log in/start up Mac OSX 10.4.11 Firefox starts. Also, the program always generates a window, upon startup, where the program wants me to add Firefox to my apps folder - this is already done. Why does it want to keep doing this? How can I get this window to stop appearing? How can I get Firefox to stop automatic start-up?
All help is appreciated,
Vincenso

Go to System Preferences > Accounts > Login Items tab and remove Firefox, i.e. select it and click the minus ( - ) sign.
Hope this helps...

Not sure if this question should be here or not. It's about Thunderbolt ands DVI displays.

On the Thunderbolt info page on the main Apple site, it states that it is possible to put a Thunderbolt Display in the same daisy chain as an Apple LED. How about 2 DVI displays?
The displays in question would be a Viewsonic VX2433wm (currently running off a MacbookPro) and one of 2 Viewsonic VG2230wm's I have collecting dust. Will they continue collecting dust? 8-/

Let me amend that if I may. To focus the question a bit: I'm about to drop the hammer on the purchase of a new Mac. I'm a pro photographer and my current set-up is the 2007 Core 2 Duo MacBookPro with the VX2433 external monitor mentioned above and all my storage (and Time Machine) is/are (?) on a variety of USB and Firewire drives totaling about 12 Tb. So the system is pretty modular. I don't really use the mobile aspect of the laptop much anymore with an iPad for presentations, so I'd like a little more horsepower than a new MacbookPro but I don't want to break the bank doing it. I guess the one thing I am trying to retain is having 2 screens, because that has allowed me to become spoiled in Photoshop (and shhhh, Lightroom) where I keep most of the palettes on the laptop screen and the work on the calibrated external monitor. So what I was thinking about is a Mac Mini with the faster 2.6Ghz quad i7, the 1Tb Fusion Drive, max'd out to 16Gb of RAM and additionally a Superdrive and wireless track and keys (cuz I wore mine out and am limping on 3rd Party crap). All of that would be $1,666 and probably a pretty kickin' machine for the price I think
But now that I've read a little more, it looks like I would need to get a Thunderbolt Display and run a DVI monitor with the included DVI to HDMI adaptor. OR IS there a way to run two DVI displays on the HDMI. There's a sentence on the Mac Mini info pages that implies there is, but it's kind of ambiguous. So clarification of thes issues could help me pull the purchase trigger ASAP - cuz the shooting biz marches on daily! ;-)

Not sure where this goes...

How do I change my settings (name that's displayed, email address, etc.)? I tried the preferences, but when I clicked "edit my preferences" the window where it's displayed is locked.
Thanks for your help!

Are you talking about your preferences here, in the forums? If so then go to the main Support page. Down in the lower right hand corner you'll see, I Need to Update My Contact info. Click the link and follow the steps.

External hard drive, sharing, itunes? Not sure where to post this?

sorry guys but i'm not sure where this belongs, but anyway. I just bought my macbook and purchased a Western Digital harddrive ( external ) anyway I have like 80gigs of pics and music and want to get it from my iPod back onto the computer. Not a problem............My problem is that I can't put it directly onto the external drive I first need to put it on the macbook then transfer it to the externak hardrive. When I do this is winds up on my mac HD and also on my external hardrive. I only want it in one place. Ok, my ultimate goal right now is to buy an iMac which I'm doing this weekend. Got rid of my PC's ( Go Apple !) LOL. I want to put all my music ,videos,pics, movies on the external hardrive and be able to share it with both my Macbook and my imac. I simply want to be able to access my everything from both pc's but get it all from the EHD. Right now it's all on my macbook and I want to free up the space, plus learn how to do it for the future. Sorry to ramble. So far I've posted a few times and someone always comes through. Everyone here is awesome, it's like another planet compared to the PC world.
thanks

Put your iTunes folder on the eternal hard drive, and make a alias to it from your home directory on the MacBook (Cmd-L). Do the same when you get the iMac.
I didn't quite get how the two computers are sharing the hard drive, or maybe you'll put the hard drive on the iMac and share the library. There's a lot of ways to make this work. You made a good decision.

Hi everyone, not sure if this is the right forum to ask this question, however any redirect is appreciated. Where can I get the download for the latest old mozilla browser. The one with the dinosaur icon before the browser turned firefox. Thanks, Jen

Hi everyone

Phoenix and Firebird were what Firefox was called before Firefox was settled on in 2004, and both used "birds" as the logo. IIRC, the dinosaur was used in the Mozilla Suite.
Here are the earliest versions of the Mozilla Suite. <br />

I hope this request for a historical purposes of where Mozilla came from, because those old versions aren't safe to use on the internet any longer.

This is less a question and more of a suggestion and I am not sure where to put it..... I would like an update that would allow you to have a tone for each individual email account

I am not sure where to put this but I would like individual tones for all my email accounts

Wonderful suggestion.

I bought my MacBook Pro in 2010. This is the first Mac I have owned and recently it is having some difficulty loading we pages, often timing out. This Mac environment is entirely different for me and I am not sure where to begin troubleshooting/clean-up.

I bought my MacBook Pro in 2010. This is the first Mac I have owned and recently it is having some difficulty loading we pages, often timing out. This Mac environment is entirely different for me and I am not sure where to begin troubleshooting and/ or clean-up. I have moderate computer skills and try not to download or access questionable material, however recently I visited the Ap Store and purchased a couple of different aps to use in record keeping and for making a flyer. I am not even sure how to remove these programs to see if it helps.
Any tips or tricks are appreciated.
Thank you!

Time to see about the PRAM battery.
By the way iOS and OS X are different systems.
iOS is the operating system for iPads, iPhones, and iPod touch.
Mac OS X is the operating system for Mac labelled computers.

HT4623 i just bought an iPad from a friend. I think is generation 1 or 2 not sure where to look for this. Bottom line, I would like to update it to iOS7. Is this possible? It does not have the option for software update.

Identify Your iPad
http://www.ifixit.com/Info/ID-your-iPad
If you have an iPad 1, the max iOS is 5.1.1. For newer iPads, the current iOS is 7.0.4. The Settings>General>Software Update only appears if you have iOS 5.0 or higher currently installed.
You can no longer update to iOS 6.x, or down grade the iOS.

How to install iOS 6
http://www.macworld.com/article/2010061/hands-on-with-ios-6-installation.html
iOS: How to update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4623
If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect the iPad to the computer, open iTunes. Then select the iPad under the Devices heading on the left, click on the Summary tab and then click on Check for Update.
Tip - If connected to your computer, you may need to disable your firewall and antivirus software temporarily. Then download and install the iOS update. Be sure and backup your iPad before the iOS update. After you update an iPad (except iPad 1) to iOS 6.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).
Tip 2 - If you're updating via wifi, place your iPad close to your router to preclude getting a corrupted download.
How to Upgrade to iOS 7
The iOS 7.0 update requires around 2.5 GB of storage space, so if your iPad is almost full, you may need to clear up some space. You can check your available space in Settings -> General -> Usage.
There are two ways to upgrade to iOS 7: You can use your Wi-Fi connection, or you can connect your iPad to your PC and update through iTunes. We'll go over each method.
To upgrade using Wi-Fi:
Note: If your iPad's battery is under 50%, you will want to plug it into your charger while performing the update.
Go into the iPad's Settings.
Locate and tap "General" from the menu on the left.
The second option from the top is "Software Update". Tap this to move into the update settings.
Tap "Download and Install". This will start the upgrade, which will take several minutes and will reboot your iPad during the process. If the Download and Install button is grayed out, trying clearing up some space. The space required by the update is mostly temporary, so you should gain most of it back after iOS 7 is installed.
Once the update is installed, you may have to run through the initial steps of setting up your iPad again. This is to account for new features and settings.
To upgrade using iTunes:
First, connect your iPad to your PC or Mac using the cable provided when you purchased your device. This will allow iTunes to communicate with your iPad.
You will also need the latest version of iTunes. Don't worry, you will be prompted to download the latest version when you launch iTunes. Once it installs, you may be asked to setup iCloud by logging into your iTunes account. If you have a Mac, you may be prompted on whether or not you want to enable the Find my Mac feature.
Now you are ready to begin the process:
If you upgraded iTunes earlier, go ahead and launch it. (For many, it will launch automatically when you plug in your iPad.)
Once iTunes is launched, it should automatically detect that a new version of the operating system exists and prompt you to upgrade to it. Choose Cancel. Before updating, you will want to manually sync your iPad to make sure everything is up to date.
After canceling the dialog box, iTunes should automatically sync with your iPad.
If iTunes doesn't automatically sync, you can manually do it by selecting your iPad within iTunes, clicking on the File menu and choosing Sync iPad from the list.
After your iPad has been synced to iTunes, select your iPad within iTunes. You can find it on the left side menu under Devices.
From the iPad screen, click on the Update button.
After verifying that you want to update your iPad, the process will begin. It takes a few minutes to update the operating system during which time your iPad may reboot a few times.
After updating, you may be asked a few questions when your device finally boots back up. This is to account for new settings and features.

I have been having problems with e-mails coming through to my 3g iphone recently, my e-mail provider recommended diabling the SSL as a default option but im not sure where to find this on the phone can anyone help?told

Please can you advise how to disable the SSL on my iphone, i am not sure where the setting is.
Thanks
Tania

Go to Settings/Mail, Contacts, Calendars. Tap the name of the email account. If you don't see a bar labeled "Advance" near the bottom, Tap Account. Tap Advanced. Under Incoming Settings, there should be an option to Use SSL. If it is ON, tap it to turn it off.

Not sure if this is the right place...Recovery or Finding missing files

Hi,
Again, not sure if this is the right place to ask, but its worth a shot.
so i've been transcribing video all day using microsoft office for mac, and was saving the project (i thought) to an external hard drive. at one point the HD came unplugged, and i plugged it back in. no big deal. i continued to save, to type, save, type, etc until finished. so when i finished and saved the project, seemed okay. when i closed word, it kept asking me if i wanted to save changes...i said yes, and it would just ask me again, did this a few times. i assumed it was asking me to save it to a new location, which i didn't think i needed so finally said no.
i then find out that somehow when the HD was unplugged it erased Words ability to save to said location. so my last save was really before the HD was removed, which is odd, because i kept saving and never was prompted the path was interrupted or anything.
so my question is two part...
1. where would i find in the depths of the computer the saved files? if i was saving, they had to have gone somewhere, but i dont know how to find them.
2. also, assuming it wasnt saving, my word prefs say it autosaves every 5 minutes, so those files must exist somewhere also, yet can't find them...
does this make sense, can anyone help me?
thanks
austin

Hi there,
In Finder, select Go menu>Go to Folder, and go to "/volumes".
Volumes is where an alias to your hard drive ("/" at boot) is placed at startup, and where all the "mount points" for auxiliary drives are created for you to access them. This folder is normally hidden from view.
Drives with an extra 1 on the end have a side-effect of mounting a drive with the same name as the system already think exists.
See if it may be in one of those with a 1 or 2 added to it.
