Question about running flash from a DVD

I'd like to create an install splash screen which is
developed using Adobe Flash or Flex because if the rich
capabilities in Flash. When a user inserts the DVD, I want my
splash screen to autorun. The only problem I see is that the user
is required to have the flash player installed. Is there a way to
carry runtime libraries on the DVD so that I can run the splash
screen without requiring the user to install Flash? Thanks.

Thank you. Exactly what I needed. I'm new to Flash and Flex,
but am getting hooked fast!!!!!

Question about updating Flash from Internet Explorer.

Why is it when I update Flash Player 10 on a Windows 7 machine that the ActiveX control is updated first then maybe a day or two later I'll get another update to install the Flash plugin? How come they are not updated at the same time? I can download the Flash executible from Safari within Windows and update the plugin manually. Usually I look in Programs and Features and the ActiveX control is the first one updated.

Because the ActiveX and plugin are two different installers.
If you want to download and install them at the same time, download both from

Question about tranferring data from iPhone 3gs to iPhone 4

I just had a couple quick questions about transferring data from my old phone from my new iPhone 4. The reason i am wondering is because i am worried about whether i will encounter any problems when doing so.
First off i have already sold my phone today, i reset all data and settings from the phone and gave it to my buddy so its gone. I did a full sync and backup yesterday so all the necessary files should be on my computer(windows 7). Now, im basically wondering if i will run into any problems if i restore my iphone 4 from a backup. My 3gs was running 3.1.2 on att. Now i know IDEALLY i would have updated it to iOS 4 before backing it up and used the newest version of itunes, but i did not. Does anyone think this will be a problem for me?
Now with that out of the way, my biggest fear is losing my old data(text messages and notes mainly because i am a pack rat for those type of things) so id like to be SURE that none of my old backups will be deleted in any scenario. The reason i dont just restore it right now is because i want my new phone to be as clutter free as possible. I am going to be putting on here only the apps that i used often and would basically like to transfer over the BARE minimum; texts, notes, and highly used apps... So i guess my main question is can you transfer over only certain things like texts and notes after setting up the phone as a new phone. And if i were to set up the phone as a new phone what would happen to my old backups? Would i be able to selectively restore?
Im afraid that it might not be a possibility to transfer only certain things even though it should be.. i should be able to select a text messages folder and put it on my new phone and be done with it... But anyway i dont want to rant. Can anyone explain to me how this all will work?
ULTIMATE GOAL: Transfer only texts, notes, certain apps(and their data) and NOTHING ELSE.
MOST IMPORTANT THING: Not losing texts and notes. I can deal with putting all the old **** on my new phone and cluttering/slowing it down if i NEED to.
Thank you in advance, sorry for the long post.

If the most important thing for you is keeping old text messages, notes, and voicemail, then you'll need to sync the phone from your existing backup. I know of no other way to access those items.
Once you have synced to the new phone, check that you have those items that were important. Then you can reconnect your phone to iTunes, and change the sync settings to remove the apps or other items you no longer want to keep on the phone.
iPhone backups are stored by iTunes; you can see them by opening your iTunes preferences, clicking on "Devices" and then looking in the window. You can delete old backups from here. I don't know how you can open/read the backups though.
I don't expect you'd have any problems syncing from your old phone's backup, but it's definitely an either/or situation. Since you got rid of the old phone already, it's too late to email yourself your notes, or copy the text messages. Your previous backup is your only solution.

Question About Adding Ram from other laptop to T-series Thinkpad

Hi,
I have a question about adding additional RAM. Right now I have a 4gb ram stick in the t510. I have an acer laptop which I do not need and there is a 4GB ram stick onboard (maybe two 2gb ram sticks) there in that older laptop. Would it be possible to add one stick of 2gb ram (or 4gb i need to check if it is 2 or 1) from the acer to the lenovo thinkpad making the total ram in the thinkpad over 4gb????
Thanks in advance

Hi Richk,
Yes, I am using a 64-bit operating system. I am running on windows 7. And as for reported incompatibilities....technically taking a RAM from another laptop and placing it in the laptop should be the same as purchasing a RAM card from ebay or something and putting into the laptop right?

Question about Offset printing from Indesign

Hello everyone, I have a question about printing too a DPX rip platemaker from Indesign. When I print my file to the rip, it seems to bold the text when it should not be bold, I do not know if this is an Indesign or rip error, but if anyone has a solution I would be grateful for any assistance.
I dont know if it's necessary, but the OS with Indesign is Mac OSX, printing to a ripmate on Windows 2000.

Have you applied an outline to the text?
Try unoutlined text
Is the text near an effect like drop shadow or other filter?
Move the text to top layer or above any effects.
Is it just this file or any file?
Need to figure out if it's just this job or all of them or at least let us know.
Have you got the fonts installed at the RIP end, perhaps it's rasterising text that the RIP has not got the font?
You could try exporting to PDF first, that would embed the fonts in the PDF.
Let us know if any of this helps?

Basic PL/SQL Question about running context

We are trying to create some generalized tools with PL/SQL procedures that would be used by a number of different Oracle Users/Schema. The idea was to store them in an administrative schema (call it ADMIN), create public synonyms for them, and grant execute to public. Then we could run them from the user schema (call it USER) to do the work.
It was my assumption, that while the procedures were stored in ADMIN, when they were run by USER they would run in the USER context. EG, a table (call it MYTABLE) that was referenced in the procedure without a schema reference (SELECT * FROM MYTABLE) would expect to find MYTABLE in the context of the schema which called the procedure. In other words, call the procedure from USER, I expected the procedure to look for MYTABLE in USER. However, we are getting errors that indicate that even though the procedure is called from USER, it is looking for the table in ADMIN (the procedures creation context), no in USER (the running context).
QUESTIONS: How is PL/SQL supposed to operate in this situation? Are there any options/parameters that can be set so the procedure will use the runtime context for table lookup, or do we have to write dynamic SQL which will fully qualify the table with the owner schema?
Thanks for your help
John Conroy

Hy,
from the manual:
The AUTHID clause is allowed only in the header of a stand-alone subprogram, a
package spec, or an object type spec. The header syntax is
-- stand-alone function
CREATE [OR REPLACE] FUNCTION [schema_name.]function_name
[(parameter_list)] RETURN datatype
[AUTHID {CURRENT_USER | DEFINER}] {IS | AS}
-- stand-alone procedure
CREATE [OR REPLACE] PROCEDURE [schema_name.]procedure_name
[(parameter_list)]
[AUTHID {CURRENT_USER | DEFINER}] {IS | AS}
-- package spec
CREATE [OR REPLACE] PACKAGE [schema_name.]package_name
[AUTHID {CURRENT_USER | DEFINER}] {IS | AS}
-- object type spec
CREATE [OR REPLACE] TYPE [schema_name.]object_type_name
[AUTHID {CURRENT_USER | DEFINER}] {IS | AS} OBJECT
where DEFINER is the default option. In a package or object type, the AUTHID
clause applies to all routines.
Note: Most supplied PL/SQL packages (such as DBMS_LOB, DBMS_PIPE, DBMS_
ROWID, DBMS_SQL, and UTL_REF) are invoker-rights packages.

Some question about receiving messages from Skype ...

Hello there,
I have a question or two about recieving messages from Skype users, who are not on my contact list"
1. If I have enabled to only receive messages from people in my contact list, will they be notified when they try to send me an instant message, that they need to add me first?
2. Will I still be able to see messages sent by contacts who are not in my contact list and them see my messages*, if we are both in a Skype conversation group but not on each other's contact list? *The messages either one of us posts in the Skype group conversation
I appreciate the information
Thanks
Solved!
Go to Solution.

1. The person sending this message will not receive any notification about failing message delivery. The message will just disappear in nowhere.
2. Messages exchanged in group chats will be seen both by you and the other person, even if this person is not in your Contact List.

Question about Removing Permissions from the System Folder with chmod

Hi
I have a question about the removal of permissions from the System folder (and sub directories and files).
Background
Since installing a new HD, clean install of 10.6, application of updates and moving over backed up user directories I have had several issues with permissions.
I have read several threads on this and using disk warrior and other tools I have been able to fix most of the issues.
The Problem
The issue that remains is a permissions check using Disk Utility keeps reporting
ACL found but not expected on "System".
followed by an extensive list of sub directories and all.
Attempts to repair take hours and the same errors are reported.
Found Solutions
I have read about changing and/or completely removing the ACL from the permissions from the System using two different commands:
sudo chmod -R -N ./System/* ( to remove all ACLs)
or
sudo chmod -R -E ./System/* ( to replace all ACLs )
My Question is ( to the UNIX gurus):
What is the difference between the usage with -E and -R and which is the best approach for a Systems directory and (subordinates)?
Many thanks!!

OK
So I misread on the your instructions about the PW reset, did it, no harm in that. I did also select the options to reset all the permissions for all the accounts and the ACL issues were not resolved. My bad, I forgot to note that.
You do suggest getting and expert opinion but alas these are rather elusive. In most cases the Apple solutions is to do a complete reinstall... I have found that unless you completely wipe a drive and rebuild everything there are often artifacts left behind. Since I have full and redundant back-ups I would rather explore and hack a little instead of a dull old system reinstall. The irony is the system issue I had was it was the result a reinstall and combo update on a new drive. I recognize the risks of entering the realms of the System folders but I am willing to explore knowing full well that I have a path to recovery.
Thanks again for your insights. I come to the forums looking for insights and ideas but not a lecture...

hi Chris951,
For the PowerDVD, is the image below the same error that you're getting?
- Link to picture
If it is, can you try the following:
1. After running the Power DVD 10 BD installer, close the error message and navigate to the C:\Drivers\PowerDVD 10 BD folder
2. Right click on Custom.ini and choose Edit (this will open Notepad). From here, look for the LEGEND Dragon entry and change it to Lenovo then save. When finished, run the setup.exe and PowerDVD should now install successfully.

Questions about "Restore System From Time Machine"

Looking to fix an apparent system corruption problem on my work machine, I discovered the "Utilities > Restore System From Time Machine" option of the Leopard installation disc. I have some questions that are not answered in http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1177:
1. Does this option erase the hard drive and install a fresh system from DVD, or do I need to do that in a separate step?
2. What about software updates - when are they applied?
3. Will third-party system extensions be reinstalled OK?
4. I tried launching the process on my home machine, just to see how it works. At work I have a dedicated disk for Time Machine, but at home I have a Time Capsule, serving two Macs via Ethernet. I've also configured the TC to give us a shared volume; so in normal operation I have two network volumes, <Username>, containing Time Machine's sparsebundle file for that user's Mac, and "Shared". When I boot from the installation DVD and run "Utilities > Restore System From Time Machine", the backup volume list only shows the "Shared" volume. If I select it, I'm prompted for my TC username and password; I enter it, TC spins up, and then nothing. I cannot continue the restoration process, and reselecting the "Shared" volume does nothing. ???
Thanks in advance for your help.
-- Phil

For the record, here's what I've found out so far:
1. The "Restore System From Time Machine" option seems to want to restore everything, including the system, from the Time Machine backup. I wanted a clean system install, so I did an "Erase & install" followed by a "Restore from Time Machine" in the Migration Assistant. That got me most, but not all, of my settings back; exceptions include the printer configurations, the desktop picture, and the Dock settings.
2. Software updates can be applied after the new system is rebooted.
3. Most 3rd party extensions seem to have been restored OK, but some (like MacFuse) were not.
4. I'd still be grateful for any hints concerning how to get "Restore from Time Machine" to work with a Time Capsule.

My MBA is being shipped, question about transferring files from old PB

Hey guys,
I just ordered a new 13" MBA and am anxiously awaiting for it to arrive... I currently have a 12" Powerbook G4 with 10.5.8 that I use an external drive to back up with time machine.
My question is this; when I get my MBA will I be able to use the time machine back up to migrate my files even though my old computer has an older version of Mac OS on it?

A Basic Guide for Migrating to Intel-Macs
The Knowledgebase article Intel-based Mac: Some migrated applications may need to be updated refers to methods of dealing with migrating from PowerPC chips to Intel with the Migration Assistant safely. The authors of this tip have not had a chance to verify this works in all instances, or that it avoids the 10.6.1 and earlier Guest Account bug that caused account information to get deleted upon use of the Migration/Setup Assistant. However, a well backed up source that includes at least two backups of all the data that are not connected to your machine will help you avoid potential issues, should they arise. In event it does not work, follow the steps below.
If you are migrating a PowerPC system (G3, G4, or G5) to an Intel-Mac be careful what you migrate. Keep in mind that some items that may get transferred will not work on Intel machines and may end up causing your computer's operating system to malfunction.
Rosetta supports "software that runs on the PowerPC G3, G4, or G5 processor that are built for Mac OS X". This excludes the items that are not universal binaries or simply will not work in Rosetta:
Classic Environment, and subsequently any Mac OS 9 or earlier applications
Screensavers written for the PowerPC
System Preference add-ons
All Unsanity Haxies
Browser and other plug-ins
Contextual Menu Items
Applications which specifically require the PowerPC G5
Kernel extensions
Java applications with JNI (PowerPC) libraries
See also What Can Be Translated by Rosetta.
In addition to the above you could also have problems with migrated cache files and/or cache files containing code that is incompatible.
If you migrate a user folder that contains any of these items, you may find that your Intel-Mac is malfunctioning. It would be wise to take care when migrating your systems from a PowerPC platform to an Intel-Mac platform to assure that you do not migrate these incompatible items.
If you have problems with applications not working, then completely uninstall said application and reinstall it from scratch. Take great care with Java applications and Java-based Peer-to-Peer applications. Many Java apps will not work on Intel-Macs as they are currently compiled. As of this time Limewire, Cabos, and Acquisition are available as universal binaries. Do not install browser plug-ins such as Flash or Shockwave from downloaded installers unless they are universal binaries. The version of OS X installed on your Intel-Mac comes with special compatible versions of Flash and Shockwave plug-ins for use with your browser.
The same problem will exist for any hardware drivers such as mouse software unless the drivers have been compiled as universal binaries. For third-party mice the current choices are USB Overdrive or SteerMouse. Contact the developer or manufacturer of your third-party mouse software to find out when a universal binary version will be available.
Also be careful with some backup utilities and third-party disk repair utilities. Disk Warrior 4.1, TechTool Pro 4.6.1, SuperDuper 2.5, and Drive Genius 2.0.2 work properly on Intel-Macs with Leopard. The same caution may apply to the many "maintenance" utilities that have not yet been converted to universal binaries. Leopard Cache Cleaner, Onyx, TinkerTool System, and Cocktail are now compatible with Leopard.
Before migrating or installing software on your Intel-Mac check MacFixit's Rosetta Compatibility Index.

Transferring data with Setup Assistant - Migration Assistant FAQ
Because Migration Assistant isn't the ideal way to migrate from PowerPC to Intel Macs, using Target Disk Mode, copying the critical contents to CD and DVD, an external hard drive, or networking
will work better when moving from PowerPC to Intel Macs. The initial section below discusses Target Disk Mode. It is then followed by a section which discusses networking with Macs that lack Firewire.
If both computers support the use of Firewire then you can use the following instructions:
1. Repair the hard drive and permissions using Disk Utility.
2. Backup your data. This is vitally important in case you make a mistake or there's some other problem.
3. Connect a Firewire cable between your old Mac and your new Intel Mac.
4. Startup your old Mac in Target Disk Mode.
5. Startup your new Mac for the first time, go through the setup and registration screens, but do NOT migrate data over. Get to your desktop on the new Mac without migrating any new data over.
If you are not able to use a Firewire connection (for example you have a Late 2008 MacBook that only supports USB:)
1. Set up a local home network: Creating a small Ethernet Network.
2. If you have a MacBook Air or Late 2008 MacBook see the following:
MacBook (13-inch, Aluminum, Late 2008) and MacBook Pro (15-inch, Late 2008)- Migration Tips and Tricks;

MacBook Air- Migration Tips and Tricks;
MacBook Air- Remote Disc, Migration, or Remote Install Mac OS X and wireless 802.11n networks.
Copy the following items from your old Mac to the new Mac:
In your /Home/ folder: Documents, Movies, Music, Pictures, and Sites folders.
In your /Home/Library/ folder:
/Home/Library/Application Support/AddressBook (copy the whole folder)
/Home/Library/Application Support/iCal (copy the whole folder)
Also in /Home/Library/Application Support (copy whatever else you need including folders for any third-party applications)
/Home/Library/Keychains (copy the whole folder)
/Home/Library/Mail (copy the whole folder)
/Home/Library/Preferences/ (copy the whole folder)
/Home /Library/Calendars (copy the whole folder)
/Home /Library/iTunes (copy the whole folder)
/Home /Library/Safari (copy the whole folder)
If you want cookies:
/Home/Library/Cookies/Cookies.plist
/Home/Library/Application Support/WebFoundation/HTTPCookies.plist
For Entourage users:
Entourage is in /Home/Documents/Microsoft User Data
Also in /Home/Library/Preferences/Microsoft
Credit goes to Macjack for this information.
If you need to transfer data for other applications please ask the vendor or ask in the Discussions where specific applications store their data.
5. Once you have transferred what you need restart the new Mac and test to make sure the contents are there for each of the applications.

Question about running EverQuest on a Boot Camp MacMini

Hey all,
I'm trying to get EverQuest working on my MacMini running Windows 7 via Boot Camp. Browsing through the archives of the internet, I've found many posts from 2007-2010 of people having success with this on a MacBook Pro (a few posts of which I found in these community archives), and I'm 99% certain that my MacMini hardware is more than sufficient. Anyway, I haven't even got to loading the game yet so performance my question isn't about performance.
My issue is that I'm trying to run the EverQuest LaunchPad to start patching the game, and it won't connect right from the outset. I've followed all of SoE's EQ LaunchPad Troubleshooting tips (here: http://help.soe.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/29017 ) and I've also gone in to my router settings and opened/forwarded all of the necessary EQ ports to this computer's IP address. I was hoping that would do it but no luck.
I also contacted the SOE Support staff and they were categorically unhelpful as usual. I used to play EQ a decade ago and I wasn't surprised to see that their customer service hasn't changed one bit. Well, here's to hoping that the Mac community is much more positive and helpful than SOE Support.
Has anyone experienced similar problems getting EverQuest to run on a Windows Boot Camp machine like this? How did people get their LaunchPad client to connect? I'm hoping there's some really dumb, obvious fix that I'm missing here because it really does seem like many have gotten this to work successfully and I'm a bit stumped at the moment..
Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

the hardware of macs today and windows computer is pretty much the same
so when one use bootcamp it's really just a bootloaded which collects the windows partition from the harddisk and then let it take over and apart from one having to install the apple drivers and software to get it running well
it's the same as any windows computer
I do all my my gaming on windows on my imac and face no different challenges then I did when I had a windows computer really
so If I were you I would broaden my googling for solutions not just to include bootcamp but all windows issues with newer windows versions and everquest could as easy be a issue there with newer video card drivers and the likes
