PDA can't see the desktop

I can't sync my PDA (Handspring Visor Deluxe): I get "The connection between your handheld and the desktop could not be established."

Are you talking about the calendar widget? If so, hit F12 to bring up the widget you have running. Next click the + sign at the bottom left corner. Scroll through the widgets and look for iCal and click it. I hope this helps.

  • How can  we see the desktop through a java frame by using JNI?

    How to make a java frame transparent( so that we can see the desktop through it) by JNI? I have seen some code to take a snapshot of the desktop. But is there any code so that the desktop is fully or partially visible through a frame?

    Please take your time to write full words: "you" instead of "u", "your" instead of "ur". It makes your posts a lot easier to read, especially for those of us who don't have English as their native language.
    You can not really "modify" the behaviour of a method by using a proxy, but you can create a proxy, direct all but one method to the original method and provide a separate implementation for the target method.
    This way you'll have two objects with the same interface (not only in the Java sense, but all methods look the same), but differing behaviour: the original object and the proxy.
    Now if you pass around the proxy instead of the original object, then it'll look as if you changed the behaviour of your object.

    It appears what happened is the installer though it was looking at a empty drive and just went ahead and installed.
    I of course am assuming here you didn't use Disk Utility to format the drive first before installing, that would wipe out your files and programs for sure.
    So what to do, what to do.
    Well there is hope for you as long as the drive wasn't Filevaulted.
    I'll explain. When a hard drive writes data for the first time to a drive, it starts at the very top and works it's way down.
    When OS X was installed the first time, it was at the top of the drive, unless you upgraded then the upgraded OS X could have been written elsewhere.
    Now when you just reinstalled OS X, the new OS went on the top of the drive, overwriting any data that was there previously, so what was there you have lost forever which is about 8GB or so. If it was the previous OS there, then your more in luck because only the old OS X was overwritten.
    The remaining space on the drive still can have a copy of your files, provided it's not overwritten yet.
    It's because when a hard drive deletes data or reformats, it doesn't remove the data off the drive or overwrites it immediately, it's just made so it's SPACE is available for new files to be written there.
    So technically one can recover the deleted data off a non-encrypted/scrubbed hard drive with special software.
    The way it does this is it reads the 1's and 0's of the files themselves, and through a lot of figuring out, can tell what that file is and what it belongs too.
    So what you will have to do is this:
    Create a data recovery/undelete external boot drive
    or if you don't have the skills, then take it to a local PC/Mac tech and they can do a direct image of the drive and then you can run Data Rescue on it to rebuild your files.

    Do you see anything on the TV?
    If you just see your desktop, then your MacBook is defaulting to extended display mode. Try pressing the Command + F1 keys to see if you get the menu bar and other icons.

  • My computer blacks out randomly, not pitch black though if you hold it in the light you can faintly still see the desktop.

    My computer blacks out randomly, not pitch black though if you hold it in the light you can faintly still see the desktop.
    If you close and open it again it flashes on for a second and then goes black again.
    Sometimes after closing and opening it several times it works again, other times it doesnt.
    Does anyone know why this is?
    Thanks!

    My iPod touch does this and I need to find out why

  • When I launch a video from Finder the video is not visible, it's like it's playing on an extended desktop but I can't see the other screen - what is going on?

    Hi Dan - I'm not sure I know what you mean by 'kick in Expose', can you please explain?
    It's a weird one as it doesn't happen all the time.  Could it have anything to do with running Apple TV and the MacBook 'thinking' there is another display (extended desktop) and playing the video there?

  • HT4527 I tried home sharing between my desk top and my lap top. My desk top is the original computer with my iTunes library. On my lap top I can only see the music I have bought from iTunes. Is this all I should see? Not my entire library?

    I have tried to install home sharing between my desk top and lap top. I can only see the music I have bought from iTunes on my lap top. Is this normal? I thought I would be able to see my entire library.

    Yes I tried that. I finally turned off all home sharing settings, shut down my desktop and found them in my account settings in the store on the cloud. So at that point I just had it download everything. But I suspect that with the ipad somehow being on, the store was saying I had already received them? Regardless, my trip today whilst running errands, I was rocking out to vintage Police music! Thank you so much for responding.

  • ICal error - can't see the calendars on opening...

    iCal error - can't see the calendars on opening... unless i change the view - but then still the portlet in the top left hand corner remains blank.
    Re-installed the whole OSx system from original disks and still the same problem.
    cleared out the cache files, including trying to delete the metadata files... taken to my local Apple Centre (Academy) but no sucess so far.
    Any ideas? Is it because i have around 8 calendars? Is that too many?
    Could it be 'cos I sync with Missing Sync for my Palm TX?
    H E L P !!
    Powerbook G4   Mac OS X (10.4.7)  

    When a user launches iCal, they may have one of the following symptoms:
    * When iCal is launched the calendar is blank -- no calendars are listed on the left and no events appear in the day/week/month views
    * Switching views allows all events to appear but the calendars on the left are still missing
    * User can create a new event and designate a calendar but when the event is saved it cannot be seen
    * Clicking in the blank space where the calendars are supposed to be has no effect.
    This issue is a Sync Services issue and not directly related to The Missing Sync. Mark/Space has identified a couple of solutions to this problem that others have reported. For more information, see: http://www.macfixit.com/article.php?story=20060207074628694
    1) Quit iCal
    2) Locate the folder, User/Library/Application Support/iCal/Sources/ and delete the contents
    3) After deleting the files from this folder, lock the "Sources" folder. Do this by navigating up one level and selecting the "Sources" folder. Perform a "Get Info" (either through the "File" menu or by pressing Command-I with the "Sources" folder selected) then click the lock icon.
    4) Launch iCal and your calendars should reappear. Note that the relaunch of iCal will create a default 'Home' and 'Work' calendar, so make sure none of your calendars have the same names as the default .
    Do some backups first
    Follow those simple steps
    5) Go to Address Book, click on 'File' menu and choose 'Back up Address Book'. Go to iCal, click on 'File' menu and choose 'Back up database'.
    6) Go to Missing Sync and double click on the Backup Conduit and set it to backup all databases. Then run the sync with just that Backup conduit selected, disable all other conduits.
    7) Go to: /Users/<user name>/Documents/Palm/Users/<hotsync name>/ now hold the 'ctrl' key and click on the /Backups/ folder. Choose the option to 'Create Archive of "Backups"'. This is to safeguard your backed up data in case anything goes wrong.
    Now 'Reset Sync History' using the iSync preferences option. The first sync will likely be slower.
    8) Launch iSync
    9) Click on the iSync menu
    10) Choose Preferences (make sure the "Enable syncing on this computer" is checked)
    11) Click the 'Reset Sync History' button. Read and follow the onscreen directions.
    12) This may launch iCal. Also the status of the reset is showing in the iSync display. When the reset is complete quit both iSync and iCal.
    Launch Missing Sync and enable the Mark/Space Events and Tasks conduits and set them to Desktop overwrite Handheld. Disable all other conduits.
    Then sync, when you do, you will get a dialog box with an orange iSync icon on it. Check the box to erase the device, then click the 'Allow' button. It will overwrite your device. You will get one for events, one for tasks, and one for contacts. The next time you sync .mac or other devices that sync with iSync like an iPod, you will get these same dialog boxes for their databases and you should check the box and click 'Allow' in those cases as well.
    If you press the don't allow button you will need to reboot your computer.

  • Home sharing can't see my desktop PC

    I have some video files in iTunes on my desktop PC and I used to have no problems using home sharing.  Recently, the home sharing connection has being going down a fair amount and now my Apple TV can't see my desktop thru home sharing.  I've replaced the Apple TV but that didn't help.  As a test I installed iTunes on my laptop last night and I had no issues using hom sharing on it, so it seems the problems lies with something on my desktop.  I don't believe I've made any changes recently and my laptop should be conigured the same, only differernce is laptop is over WiFi and desktop is over wired ethernet connect (as is Apple TV) but that shouldn't matter. 
    Rather frustrating.

    >only differernce is laptop is over WiFi and desktop is over wired ethernet connect (as is Apple TV)
    >but that shouldn't matter.
    You would think that but there are a number of posts about pople getting MUCH better performance on WiFi that ethernet.  Which is completely  backwards, but it is happening for some people after the last two updates.  It is something I am seeing too.  Try having ATV use WiFi.

  • Making a slide show and can only see the top 1/4 of the bottem line of photos in the project.  help?

    I am working with beat markers and it was going along fine until suddenly everything went awry.  I dropped in a bunch of photos and the last photo assigned itself a time of over 3 minutes.  Beat markers are at less than 1 second.  I have removed the beat markers for the photos I want to remove, in order to try again.  When I try to delete the 3 minute picture the entire project loses its beat markers AND on top of all of that, I can only see the top 1/4 of the pics in the bottom line of the project.  I've tried several work arounds and can't fix this.  Anyone have suggestions?

    '''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode|Firefox Safe Mode]] is a troubleshooting mode that turns off some settings, disables most add-ons (extensions and themes).
    If Firefox is open, you can restart in Firefox Safe Mode from the Help menu:
    *In Firefox 29.0 and above, click the menu button [[Image:New Fx Menu]], click Help [[Image:Help-29]] and select ''Restart with Add-ons Disabled''.
    *In previous Firefox versions, click on the Firefox button at the top left of the Firefox window and click on ''Help'' (or click on ''Help'' in the Menu bar, if you don't have a Firefox button) then click on ''Restart with Add-ons Disabled''.
    If Firefox is not running, you can start Firefox in Safe Mode as follows:
    * On Windows: Hold the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * On Mac: Hold the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
    * On Linux: Quit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run ''firefox -safe-mode'' <br>(you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
    When the Firefox Safe Mode window appears, select "Start in Safe Mode".<br>
    [[Image:Safe Mode Fx 15 - Win]]
    '''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]] article to find the cause.
    ''To exit Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''

  • I can't see the double arrows to access to full screen mode

    I have a imac (the pretty big one) with OS 10.7 and i can't see the double arrows to access to full screen mode in any application. Even Safari or other native software don't work. Did anyone have a clue for me please ?
    The combiantion Ctrl-Cmd-F doesn't work neither.
    I have a macbook air with the same OS and it works perfectly.
    Thanks in advance.

    Ok, that didn't work and only closed out this window in discussions. After it closed this one I tried again doing the same but nothing. Makes sense though because if it closed this one out it would close everything else out on my desktop too. This is like a giant screen saver. All my other .jpg icons are still on my desktop over the top of this big pic. Is it possible this is what it is, just a screensaver? I did the same with another pic from the same website and it didn't do this. I clicked on my mouse to save a pic to the desktop and this monstrous thing appeared.  My dock is still there and the top bar that has the apple, Safari, edit, etc., but not anything else that you would normally click on to close a window.

  • I can't see the Copy dialog box - ideas?

    Yep, it's as simple as that. When I copy something, I can't see the dialog box showing the progress of the copy/move/etc. In the Window menu, it shows that there's a copy dialog open, but I just can't see it.  It's not on another desktop or in a corner of the screen, it's just honestly not there.
    Any ideas?

    The first thing I'd suggest is deleting the AppleWorks preferences. My user tip, AppleWorks has stopped working correctly, included the information on where to find them in OS 8.
    Even though you are using OS 8, I strongly suggest updating AppleWorks to at least 6.2.3 (included in the 6.2.4 for OS X update) or the newest 6.2.8/6.2.9. You can find the 6.2.4 updater here. You can find the most reliable link to the 6.2.9 updater on this page where you can choose the appropriate updater for your AppleWorks 6 installation. Be sure to pay attention to the two English version updaters. You'd want to delete the preferences mentioned above before launching AppleWorks for the first time after the update.
