Reading texts from Child's phone from somewhere other than the phone

Is there a way I can read texts my child sends & receives without having her phone (ie from my computer or table)? iMessage is not the solution because not everyone who texts her has an iPhone, not to mention iMessage uses a lot of data (see many scathing posts about this by other members). Technically, it is my phone. I paid for the device, and I pay for the monthly service. While I'm not interested in the mundane day-to-day conversations she has with her friends, it has recently come to my attention that some inappropriate information has been shared via texting. I'd prefer not to take the phone away from her, as it does provide a useful function (ie, my ability to get ahold of her when she is out with her friends), However, I am finding that part of my job as her parent is to monitor what is being sent and. I also have reason to believe she is deleting text messages she does not want us to see. I look forward to any recommendations that can be provided. Thanks!

Unfortunately, with a smartphone this would not be very helpful. For instance, iMessage normally uses data instead of texting for messages to other Apple devices. There are several other apps which ALSO bypass SMS/MMS capabilities alltogether. Blocking texting on a smartphone WILL NOT keep a user from being able to text, it would simply push them into a messaging type which bypasses the SMS/MMS infrastructure and works solely via data.

If I purchase an iPod touch from somewhere other than Apple, can I buy and put an AppleCare plan on it?

I want to purchase an iPod touch from Target, but I think that the AppleCare warranty plan is better than the one that Target offers.

So if I purchase the AppleCare plan right now to go along with my iPod, do I just go through the AppleCare registration process to get everything set up?

Playing itunes music track from somewhere other than beginning

I would like a piece of music to play from a minute into the track, rather than from the beginning.
I thought setting it with the play control QT inspector would fix it, but the track still plays from the beginning. I tried setting a different start point in itunes and reimporting the track, but it still goes back to the beginning. And as it's a protected AAC file, I assume I can't trim it anyway.
Looking at other posts on similar topics, I thik the answer is going to be "you can't".

You could burn it to a CD, re-import the MP3 file (which makes it an uprotected file), and then edit is as you like using an audio editor like the freeware Audacity, or even QuickTime Pro.

Finding files on an iPod Classic that were added from somewhere other than iTunes

I added files onto an iPod Classic from another source other than iTunes, but can't find that file on the iPod, either its not connected self, or when it is in iTunes.
So, how do I go about locating the file without going back INTO iTunes and adding the file into iTunes' library?

Hey thanks, Jim... Actually I do have a back up of my entire library on an external drive. Is the process just dragging the songs and albums from the Finder (from the external drive backup) onto the iPod when I plug it in to iTunes and they copy over? Is it possible to create new or update existing Playlists with this method? But is key is to never sync the iPod with iTunes or do I need to check Manually Manage Music & Videos?
Or am I looking at this completely wrong. lol

Using applescript to print from printers other than the default

Hi
I have this script to print from Quark which works fine:
tell application "QuarkXPress"
tell print setup of document 1
set separation to false
set printer type to "HP Laserjet 8150 Series"
set paper size to "A3"
set orientation to portrait
set bleed to "3"
set page position to center horizontal
set print spreads to false
set reduce or enlarge to "100%"
set registration marks to centered
set tiling to off
end tell
print document 1
end tell
It works fine but if I change my default printer to something else eg. our canon colour printer, then the document prints from there instead.
If anyone can help it would be much appreciated
Kind Regards
Andrew

Thanx Nova Scotian..
Didnt quite work but i got this from another forum which did in case your interested:
tell application "Printer Setup Utility"
set the visible of every window to false
if printer "ExactPrinterName" exists then set current printer to printer "ExactPrinterName"
get current printer -- debugging
if (current printer is not "ExactPrinterName") then display dialog "Please setup your 'ExactPrinterName'!!"
quit
end tell
Of course, ExactPrinterName is the name of the printer you WANT to use as it exists in the Printer Setup list.

HT204266 how can I buy from itunes other than the USA store?

Is it possible to open an account at a store located in a country in which you do not have a credit card?

Yes, I do have a payment method valid in that country (which is my usa credit card, accepted in that country), but what do you mean "to be in that country"? do i need to open a different account?

Start playing somewhere other than the beginning?

I am making my video and as I move things around, I want to start playing at the change and not the beginning of the movie. I grab the red line and pull it down to where I want to start playing. But it 'fights' me and it is just easier to start it from the beginning. But I know there has to be a way... what is it :-)?

Move the cursor to where you want to start playing and hit the space bar.
If you want to play a certain clip, select it. Then right-click/Play Selection.

Music in iDVD: Can it start somewhere other than the beginning?

I have loaded a song onto the main menu part of the DVD. I'd like the music that plays to not start at the beginning of the song. Is that possible? I'd like it to start about a minute in...

You could also get WireTap Studio http://www.ambrosiasw.com/utilities/wiretap/
It will record anything that can make sound on a Mac. You could start your song playing and then hit the record button on WTS just at the point you want. When finished recording, hit the stop button. You will have an audio clip of the portion of the song you want. Just drag it to the desktop and then into iDVD's audio slot in Inspector. Works great! WTS is a very versatile app and can do a lot more than just this, but this is the function I use most.
Costs $69, but well worth it.

Denying access from hosts other than localhost

I would like to prohibit access to Directory Server from hosts other than the localhost:
I am doing this from Administration Console. On the server node I set the ACI:
(targetattr = "*")(version 3.0; acl "deny_ip"; deny (all) ip!=dirservhost_ip or ip!=127.0.0.1; )
But the access is still allowed. What is wrong?

Purchase a device like this. They are offered by many cellular carriers

Reading text from server socket stream

I have a basic cd input program i've been trying to figure out the following problem for a while now, the user enters the artist and title etc and then a DOM (XML) file is created in memory this is then sent to the server. The server then echos back the results which is later printed on a html page by reading the replys from the server line by line.
The server must be run it listens for clients connecting the clients connect and send DOM documents through the following jsp code.

I'm suppose to modify the commented sections labled with #.
#1,2 are correct but i have doubts on the 3rd and 4th modification.
for #3 i changed so i serializes to the socket not to the "out" object:
from
XMLSerializer serializer = new XMLSerializer(out, format);
to
XMLSerializer serializer = new XMLSerializer(writer, format);
with "out" it prints out some of the results entered but it just hangs i'm thinking it might be the while loop that i added in #4. If i changed it to serialize the socket XMLSerializer serializer = new XMLSerializer(writer, format); it doesn't print out nothing at all; just a blank screen where it hangs.
I can post the rest of the code (server thats in java and cdinput.html) but since i want to keep my post short and if required i'll post it later on i also omitted some of the code where it creates the DOM textnodes etc to keep my post short.

On your previous thread, why did you say the server was using http POST and application/xml content type when it quite obviously isn't, but a direct socket communication that abuses XML comments for message end delimiters?
The comments imply you need to wait for "" on a line by itself, but your loop is waiting for "QUIT".

The SIM card included with an iPhone 4S that is activated with Verizon is not used to access Verizon's network. The SIM card is used when roaming internationally - to be used with a GSM carrier in another country at Verizon's international roaming rates - with a GSM carrier in a country that Verizon has a roaming agreement with.
An iPhone activated with Verizon can be activated with another Verizon account and line/number at a Verizon store, or this can be done over the air. When I was a Verizon subscriber many moons ago, any CDMA phone I had activated with Verizon would be done over the air without having to visit a Verizon store.
Regarding your MBP, you can perform an erase and install with the OS X install package that shipped with the Mac when new. This way it will be like opening the Mac for the first time for her. She will get the setup assistant to set up the computer with her name, address, and email address, etc. along with capturing a photo of her if she wants. After she goes through the brief setup assitant, you can run Software Update to get OS X and all includes apps up to date. She can then authorize the MBP with her iTunes account with iTunes. The iPhone can the be restored with iTunes as a new iPhone.

Indesign CS3-JS - Problem in reading text from a text file

Can anyone help me...
I have an problem with reading text from an txt file. By "readln" methot I can read only the first line of the text, is there any method to read the consecutive lines from the text file.
Currently I am using Indesign CS3 with Java Script (for PC).
My Java Script is as follows........
var myNewLinksFile = myFindFile("/Links/NewLinks.txt")
var myNewLinks = File(myNewLinksFile);
var a = myNewLinks.open("r", undefined, undefined);
myLine = myNewLinks.readln();
alert(myLine);
function myFindFile(myFilePath){
var myScriptFile = myGetScriptPath();
var myScriptFile = File(myScriptFile);
var myScriptFolder = myScriptFile.path;
myFilePath = myScriptFolder + myFilePath;
if(File(myFilePath).exists == false){
//Display a dialog.
myFilePath = File.openDialog("Choose the file containing your find/change list");
return myFilePath;
function myGetScriptPath(){
try{
myFile = app.activeScript;
catch(myError){
myFile = myError.fileName;
return myFile;
Thanks,
Bharath Raja G

Hi Bharath Raja G,
If you want to use readln, you'll have to iterate. I don't see a for loop in your example, so you're not iterating. To see how it works, take a closer look at FindChangeByList.jsx--you'll see that that script iterates to read the text file line by line (until it reaches the end of the file).
Thanks,
Ole

Problem with reading text from .DOC files through java and POI

I have used a jar file "poi-scratchpad-3.2-FINAL-20081019.jar" and "poi-3.2-FINAL.jar" to read text from a .DOC file. I used the "getParagraphText()" function of the class "org.apache.poi.hwpf.extractor.WordExtractor" to get the text.
I am able to get the text in the .DOC file but along with that i am getting the following messages/warnings

Can anyone explain me why I am getting above warnings and how can I remove them. Is it possible to fetch the text depending on delimiters.
Thanks in advance,

The jar files which were used are downloaded from http://jarfinder.com. Those jars created the problem of displaying those messages on console. I downloaded APIs from apache.org and used them in my application. Now my application is running good.
