Problems with focus on mac
I'm making a Comunity system for online games, and i got a problem with keyFocus in java.awt.Window on MAC (OS9 & X).
I have some popup dialog for P2P chat etc. The popup dialog is an extension of java.awt.Window and is not using standard awt or swing components. I use the keyListener to send key events to my own graphic implementation that generates a Image that is show i the window by drawing it in the paint method.
The problem is that I can't get keyFocus on the window, if I add a awt.TextField to the window i can get key focus by requesting keyFocus after showning the window, but if the window has been hidden by another window I can't get the key focus back.
Is there anyway to give the java.awt.Window keyFocus?
Is there anyway to make the java.awt.Window Focusable with out havning a focusable component on it?
I forgot to tell that main program is an applet and must be able to run under all jvm's from 1.1 to 1.4.

Problem with focus on applet - jvm1.6
Hi,
I have a problem with focus on applet in html page with tag object using jvm 1.6.
focus on applet work fine when moving with tab in a IEbrowser page with applet executed with jvm 1.5_10 or sup, but the same don't work with jvm1.6 or jvm 1.5 with plugin1.6.
with jvm 1.5 it's possible to move focus on elements of IEbrowser page and enter and exit to applet.
i execut the same applet with the same jvm, but after installation of plugin 1.6, when applet gain focus don't release it.
instead if i execute the same applet with jvm 1.6, applet can't gain focus and manage keyevent, all keyevent are intercepted from browser page.
(you can find an example on: http://www.vista.it/ita_vista_0311_video_streaming_accessibile_demo.php)
Any idea?
ThanksHi piotrek1130sw,
From what you have described, I think the best approach would be to restore the original IDT driver, restart the computer, test that driver, then install the driver update, and test the outcome of installing the newest driver.
Use the following link for instructions to recovery the ITD driver using Recovery Manager. Restoring applications and drivers.
Once the driver is restored, restart the computer and test the audio. If the audio is good you can continue to use this driver, or you can reinstall the update and see what happens. IDT High-Definition (HD) Audio Driver.
If installing the newest driver causes the issue to occur but the recovered driver worked, I suggest recovering again.
If neither driver works I will gladly follow up and provide any assistance I can.
Please let me know the outcome.

hello guy! I've got a problem with facetime for mac.My sister has a I-pod touch fourth generation with factime but i cna't phone her a message come on my mac.It say "xxx can't receive facetime's calls"!Can you help me??
Thanks, Dah•veed.
I did see mention of using Google Public DNS while I was searching the forums prior to posting, but to be honest didn't think it was a DNS-related problem.
However, to rule it out I've set the prefered DNS servers on my router to Google's, but FaceTime still disconnects after 4-5 seconds when calling between me and my brother-in-law. It doesn't matter who initiates the call.
As a test, before I made the changes to my router, I logged into FaceTime as him on my MBP and tried calling myself on my iMac, and that was successful.
The same test between the two iMacs when they were here was unsuccessful, so now I'm definitely thinking it's something on the '08 iMac.
Now I just need to figure out what... -
Problem with Twitter for Mac notifications
Hello,
I have a strange problem with Twitter for Mac. On both my home and office Macs. New posts appear in app window but there aren't any notifications even though notifications are set in preferences to show in both dock and menubar. Perhaps anyone noticed similar strange behaviour? I didn't find anything similar on Twitter forums.
Thanks in advance.Solved by

go to Terminal and post this:
/System/Library/Frameworks/CoreServices.framework/Versions/A/Frameworks/LaunchSe rvices.framework/support/lsregister -kill -seed
if it doesn't have that specific directory try this:
/System/Library/Frameworks/CoreServices.framework/Versions/A/Frameworks/LaunchSe rvices.framework/Versions/A/Support/lsregister -kill -seed
once the scanning is done (can be short or long, depends on how heavy your system is) RESTART the computer.
when you're back, go to Apple>system preferences>extensions.... guess who's there.
I hope it helped.

Problem with focus border and ListCellRenderer in custom listbox
I have a bug in some code that I adapted from another posting on this board -- basically what I've done is I have a class that implements a custom "key/value" mapping listbox in which each list item/cell is actually a JPanel consisting of 3 JLabels: the first label is the "key", the second is a fixed "==>" mapping string, and the 3rd is the value to which "key" is mapped.
The code works fine as long as the list cell doesn't have the focus. When it does, it draws a border rectangle to indicate focus, but if the listbox needs to scroll horizontally to display all the text, part of the text gets cut off (i.e. "sometex..." where "sometext" should be displayed).
The ListCellRenderer creates a Gridlayout to lay out the 3 labels in the cell's JPanel.
What can I do to remedy this situation? I'm not sure what I'd need to do in terms of setting the size of the panel so that all the text gets displayed OK within the listbox. Or if there's something else I can do to fix this. The code and a main() to run the code are provided below. To reproduce the problem, click the Add Left and Add Right buttons to add a "mapping" -- when it doesn't have focus, everything displays fine, but when you give it focus, note the text on the right label gets cut off.

I have problems with office for mac screen resolution, specially with excel
I have problems with office for mac screen resolution, specially with excel ?
For starters, make sure to Check for Updates on any of the Help menus, and make sure the product has all the latest patches. MS did come out with a patch addressing the display issues on Retina Macs. Latest patchlevel is 14.3.2.
We are talking about Office:Mac 2011, right? -
I just heard a news report that there is a problem with malware in mac computers that came through a recent java update. Is this true? If so, what should be done about it?
As usual those "news" reports mangled the facts and got most of the story completely wrong. This particular attack did not arise through a Java update, it was distributed through a fraudulent Flash download popup window, or malicious websites that Safari is designed to block.
If you run Java on your Mac you may be vulnerable to this malware. If you do not run Java there is no risk. If you routinely keep your Mac up to date with Software Update the risk is greatly reduced.
Shut off the mass market junk that masquerades as "news" and read this to learn some real facts:

Is Anyone else having problems with their I MAC 24" Foggy display?
Is anyone else having problems with their I MAC 24" having a foggy display in lower right hand corner after the computer has been on for 30 or 45 min? This is now the 2nd computer that has this same problem. Just wondering if anyone else is having this issue with the IMAC 24"? Does anyone know what might be the cause? I have only had the computer for a month. Thanks very much.
Thank you for the nice welcome.
Sorry about posting in the wrong area I found the correct discussion board. http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=7998535#7998535
Its seems that I am not alone in my problem but I do have good news to report that apple support has acknowledged the issue is happening and a fix is in the works. The support and assistance I received today helped greatly to restore my faith in apple product satisfaction.
Lets hope you don't have this experience in the future, hopefully a solution can be reached that is in everyone best interest. I may have to drive a greater distance to another apple store but for myself and others like me feel its worth the extra effort to get better customer service in the long run. -
Problem with focus and selecting text in jtextfield
I have problem with jtexfield. I know that solution will be very simple but I can't figure it out.
This is simplified version of situation:
I have a jframe, jtextfield and jbutton. User can put numbers (0-10000) separated with commas to textfield and save those numbers by pressing jbutton.
When jbutton is pressed I have a validator which checks that jtextfield contains only numbers and commas. If validator sees that there are invalid characters, a messagebox is launched which tells to user whats wrong.
Now comes the tricky part.
When user presses ok from messagebox, jtextfield should select the character which validator said was invalid so that user can replace it by pressing a number or comma.
I have the invalid character, but how can you get the focus to jtextfield and select only the character which was invalid?
I tried requestFocus(), but it selected whole text in jtextfield and after that command I couldn't set selected text. I tried with commands setSelectionStart(int), setSelectionEnd(int) and select(int,int).
Then I tried to use Caret and select text with that. It selected the character I wanted, but the focus wasn't really there because it didn't have keyFocus (or something like that).
Is there a simple way of doing this?textField.requestFocusInWindow();
textField.select(...);The above should work, although read the API on the select(...) method for the newer recommended approach on how to do selection.
If you need further help then you need to create a "Short, Self Contained, Compilable and Executable, Example Program (SSCCE)",
see http://homepage1.nifty.com/algafield/sscce.html,
that demonstrates the incorrect behaviour, because I can't guess exactly what you are doing based on the information provided.
Don't forget to use the "Code Formatting Tags",
see http://forum.java.sun.com/help.jspa?sec=formatting,
so the posted code retains its original formatting. -
Problems with DPS on Mac OS 10.8.2
Hi,
Two of my students (Digital Publishing at SintLucas Eindhoven, Netherlands) are having problems with their Folio Overlays and Folio Builder. They are working on Mac OS 10.8.2 and the Folio Overlays panel is there, but just doesn't work.
In the Folio Builder there is a message "you do not have a compatible digital publishing plug-in" with a download link. They have downloaded an installed this and the Application Manager says everything is up-to-date, but the Folio Overlays panel still doesn't work and the Folio Builder still has the same message.
Does anybody have a solution for this problem?

Problems with wrt610n and mac mini (MA206LL/A*)
i purchased a new wrt610n and one of the machines that is connected is a mac mini, 1.66 ghz intel core duo.
#ma2066/ll/a for those who want to compare notes. the computer is stock with the 802.11g wireless card
that came with the machine. it is running the current software and all the updates are up to date.
i am using wpa 2 personal w / aes
their is some kind of incompatibility or issue between the wrt610n and the mac mini.
either using the wireless connection OR connected directly to the router, web pages are very slow to load. sometimes it can take
up to 45 seconds for the mac mini to open up a webpage. for 45 seconds it is at 'contacting website'
when i try to run software update, i get a time out error -1001, make sure you can connect to the internet and try again.
hulu desktop is also running slow.
copying a file from the mac mini to a another computer over wifi averages about 1 mb/s
when i informed linksys about this problem, they took my phone number and said that a linksys technician / senior tech support employee
would call me back. that was a day or so ago. i asked if i can have any newer firmware, considering the latest is 5 months old.
i am considering returning this router, but i don't see a lot of good alternatives that have similar features. i have 21 days to return this. the restocking fee will be 15% i am also considering various 802.11n solutions for the mac mini, even including the dell 1500 wireless mini card, i heard it works as an airport card.
if i do get a different model router i would like external antennas.
my previous router was a 5 year old wrt54gs version 2.0, and it never had a problem with any of the computers with the network.
the trouble shooting steps involved changing the beacon to 75 and the mtu to something else, i forgot. it did not make a difference.
i moved the mini and connected it wired to the wrt610 and turned off the airport wireless card and there was no improvement.
when i disconnected the wrt610n and connected the mac mini directly to my dsl modem. the issues were suddenly gone.
theres some kind of problem with this particular unit. and i would like to hear from others who have solved this or are experiencing

Is anyone else having problems with Office for Mac and Lion?

Another problem that may not be related to Office is that opening Finder is so slow and most of the time it takes a minute to display folders in Desktop or Documents.

Problems with AEBS recognising MAC OS Extended USB hard drive
I've just bought the AEBS(n) and connected a hard drive via the usb port. Everything works fine - however when I get info it shows that the format is Appleshare! The hard drive is actually formatted as a MAC OS Extended (journaled) as this is confirmed if I connect the drive directly to my iMac.
Although this may not seem to be a problem as I can read and write to the disk, if I use iMovie it does not recognise the disk and therefore not show my iMovie events, even though there are on the drive and states that i must have a MAC OS extended drive.
I don't know how to ensure that AEBS shows the correct format of the drive so I won't have this problem?
The other thing is that when I use the Aiport Disk Utility it does not show the name of my hard drive in the window, instead the name of the AEBS shows!!??I think there are a number of problems with the AEBS USB disk support.
- I have a 1 GB flash drive (solid state) that works fine on the AEBS.
- however I also have a 75 GB 2.5 inch Hitachi external USB drive that works fine on all my macs but can not connect to the AEBS. After talking to Apple there seems to be a list of 'supported drives' for AEBS USB drives but I've never seen it and nobody at Apple has it (or at least could send it to me).
- my AEBS has crashed several times when I hook up the Hitachi drive, forcing me to attach the drive to a mac and run disk utility for a disk repair (I guess the AEBS has no disk repair function).
- and it is slooowwww ....
- if you use a USB hub there seems to be a lot more issues -- especially if the hub is USB 1.1 and not USB 2.0.

Problem with playback from mac to pc?
I recently Created a peroject on a mac containing a large quantity of markers and clips, when I transfered it to my home pc I recieved a notice saying that I needed a third party program for the video to play properly. When I did play the video, its frame-rate was terrible and couldn't keep up with the audio at all. Is this just a problem with the video transfered bit rate or with the actual changing of mac to pc? please help...
transfering has worked before between the two computers and the t3i I use works also with each computer, I wonder if any effects could create this?I've never seen that message. What exactly did it say? You're using the native media from the T3i, it hasn't been converted, it's never been inside of Final Cut Pro?
