Requirements for starting JSP

Hi,
I want to run a simple JSP pages.
Can anyone tell me about the requirements for running JSP and how to configure the server and related stuffs.
Also if you could let me know about the configurations and softwares required for installing and configuring the server.
I was suggested to use Tomcat, but what is
it and is that the only software I'll need
to run JSP?
Please be specify in your explanation as Im very new to this.
Currently, Im using NT and only got JDK 1.3 installed on my PC.
Thank you very much for your help.
Regard.
Tara

Do the following steps first
1. Install JavaWebServer2.0 on NT ServerJava Web Server is an outdated/unsupported product and currently not available for downlaod. Use Tomcat (http://jakarta.apache.org) or Resin (http://www.caucho.com) as JSP enabled web server.
Read the tutorials mentioned at http://www.jspinsider.com
2. Store your file with .jsp extension in
"public_html" folder
3. Start Services as following
- go to control panel
- double click on servercis
- look for JavaWebServer and select it
- Click on start button
- close it
3. Start IE5.0
4. put the following in URL bar
http://your_machine_name:8080/yourfilename.jsp
JSP file
<html>
<title>My first Jsp program </title>
<%
out.println("<h1> Hello welcome Jsp Prgrms");
%>
</html>
Get in touch, if any other probs.
Happy learning JSP

Requirements for building jsp pages

wht are the basic requirements for building jsp pages
or even 4 wrkin on j2ee..
new to j2ee and hv exp on j2se

It's depends what OS you have:
Windows -- IIS + Tomcat
Linux(FreeBSD) -- Apache + Tomcat (or Resin, but I prefer Tomcat);
Of couse you should have a text editor to edit *.jsp file :-)

Urgent Help Required For Starting RMI server from servlet.

I am currently working on rmi project.
I want to send request to remote machine(Web host) where my application is from desktop client .For that we are using RMI.
I am writing servlet and inside it i am binding object to registry for rmi server.
which will be deployed on remote server.
code ....
Registry reg;
reg=LocateRegistry.createRegistry(1099);
Server server=new Server("server");//class whose remote object to be accessed
//extends unicast remote object.Implement ServerInt interface which extends Remote.
reg.bind("server",server);
When i am trying to access this object i am getting following exception.

I can access naming enumeration of registry and object bound to it.
by following program.I shows corect objects.
Context namingContext=new InitialContext();
NamingEnumeration<NameClassPair> e=namingContext.list("rmi:");
while(e.hasMore())
System.out.println(e.next().getName());
While when i start RMI server from simple java program i can access these objects from registry.
I am not getting what is problem problem.Is there any other way to send request?
Plese give quick response.

Hi,
I have made entry in Microsoft Window's drivers>etc> host, but still following error message is coming "The IP address for the website you requested could not be found."
Technical Information (for support personnel)
Error Code 11001: Host not found
Background: This error indicates that the gateway could not find the IP address of the website you are trying to access. This is usually due to a DNS-related error.

What requirements do I need for starting web application?

We have Oracle7.3.4 Server, Developer2000, Forms4.5, and
Designer2000 2.1 in our company's development environment. The
Oracle7 Server deploys on Unix. However, we try to use
Designer2000 to creat web application.
What requirements in term of hardwares and softwares do I need
to start the Web applications? Our company is going to upgrade
the Oracle Server from 7 to 8.05. Do we need different
requirements for Web application if we upgrade?
null

On a webform what all local resources one can access, printer,
hard disk etc
Thanks

Java.rmi.UnmarshalException: skeleton class not found but required for clie

Hello everyone,
I am new to RMI and getting a strange exception. I am using Java 1.5.0_07 both on client and server. They are running on the same machine, the rmi registry is started inside the server application.
I am wondering why java complains about skeletons, I thought they are automatically created when using java 5.0?
Please have a look at the stacktrace below.
Thank you for your help.
Best Regards

List of Manual Setup required for iSetup to work

Hi All,
This is Mugunthan from iSetup development. Based on my interaction with customers and Oracle functional experts, I had documented list of manual setups that are required for smooth loading of selection sets. I am sharing the same. Please let me know if I anyone had to enter some manual setup while using iSetup.
Understanding iSetup
iSetup is a tool to migrate and report on your configuration data. Various engineering teams from Oracle develop the APIs/Programs, which migrates the data across EBS instances. Hence all your data is validated for all business cases and data consistency is guarantied. It requires good amount of setup functional knowledge and bit of technical knowledge to use this tool.
Prerequisite setup for Instance Mapping to work
·     ATG patch set level should be same across all EBS instances.
·     Copy DBC files of each other EBS instances participating in migration under $FND_SECURE directory (refer note below for details).
·     Edit sqlnet.ora to allow connection between DB instacnes(tcp.invited_nodes=(<source>,<central>))
·     Make sure that same user name with iSetup responsibility exists in all EBS instances participating in migration.
Note:- iSetup tool is capable of connecting to multiple EBS instances. To do so, it uses dbc file information available under $FND_SECURE directory. Let us consider three instances A, B & C, where A is central instance, B is source instance and C is target instances. After copying the dbc file on all nodes, $FND_SECURE directory would look like this on each machine.
A => A.dbc, B.dbc, C.dbc
B => A.dbc, B.dbc
C => A.dbc, C.dbc
Prerequisite for registering Interface and creating Custom Selection Set
iSetup super role is mandatory to register and create custom selection set. It is not sufficient if you register API on central/source instance alone. You must register the API on all instances participating in migration/reporting.
Understanding how to access/share extracts across instances
Sharing iSetup artifacts
·     Only the exact same user can access extracts, transforms, or reports across different instances.
·     The “Download” capability offers a way to share extracts, transforms, and loads.
Implications for Extract/Load Management
·     Option 1: Same owner across all instances
·     Option 2: Same owner in Dev, Test, UAT, etc – but not Production
o     Extract/Load operations in non-Production instances
o     Once thoroughly tested and ready to load into Production, download to desktop and upload into Production
·     Option 3: Download and upload into each instance
Security Considerations
·     iSetup does not use SSH to connect between instances. It uses Concurrent Manager framework to lunch concurrent programs on source and target instances.
·     iSetup does not write password to any files or tables.
·     It uses JDBC connectivity obtained through standard AOL security layer
Common Incorrect Setups
·     Failure to complete/verify all of the steps in “Mapping instances”
·     DBC file should be copied again if EBS instance has been refreshed or autoconfig is run.
·     Custom interfaces should be registered in all EBS instances. Registering it on Central/Source is not sufficient.
·     Standard Concurrent Manager should up for picking up iSetup concurrent requests.
·     iSetup financial and SCM modules are supported from 12.0.4 onwards.
·     iSetup is not certified on RAC. However, you may still work with iSetup if you could copy the DBC file on all nodes with the same name as it had been registered through Instance Mapping screen.
Installed Languages
iSetup has limitations where it cannot Load or Report if the number and type of installed languages and DB Charset are different between Central, Source and Target instances. If your case is so, there is a workaround. Download the extract zip file to desktop and unzip it. Edit AZ_Prevalidator_1.xml to match your target instance language and DB Charset. Zip it back and upload to iSetup repository. Now, you would be able to load to target instance. You must ensure that this would not corrupt data in DB. This is considered as customization and any data issue coming out this modification is not supported.
Custom Applications
Application data is the prerequisite for the most of the Application Object Library setups such as Menus, Responsibility, and Concurrent programs. iSetup does not migrate Custom Applications as of now. So, if you have created any custom application on source instance, please manually create them on the target instance before moving Application Object Library (AOL) data.
General Foundation Selection Set
Setup objects in General foundation selection set supports filtering i.e. ability to extract specific setups. Since most of the AOL setup data such as Menus, Responsibilities and Request Groups are shipped by Oracle itself, it does not make sense to migrate all of them to target instance since they would be available on target instance. Hence, it is strongly recommended to extract only those setup objects, which are edited/added, by you to target instance. This improves the performance. iSetup uses FNDLOAD (seed data loader) to migrate most of the AOL Setups. The default behavior of FNDLOAD is given below.
Case 1 – Shipped by Oracle (Seed Data)
FNDLOAD checks last_update_date and last_updated_by columns to update a record. If it is shipped by Oracle, the default owner of the record would be Oracle and it would skip these records, which are identical. So, it won’t change last_update_by or last_updated_date columns.
Case 2 – Shipped by Oracle and customized by you
If a record were customized in source instance, then it would update the record based on last_update_date column. If the last_update_date in the target were more recent, then FNDLOAD would not update the record. So, it won’t change last_update_by column. Otherwise, it would update the records with user who customized the records in source instance.
Case 3 – Created and maintained by customers
If a record were newly added/edited in source instance by you, then it would update the record based on last_update_date column. If the last_update_date of the record in the target were more recent, then FNDLOAD would not update the record. So, it won’t change last_update_by column. Otherwise, it would update the records with user who customized the records in source instance.
Profiles
HR: Business Group => Set the name of the Business Group for which you would like to extract data from source instance. After loading Business Group onto the target instance, make sure that this profile option is set appropriately.
HR: Security Profile => Set the name of the Business Group for which you would like to extract data from source instance. After loading Business Group onto the target instance, make sure that this profile option is set appropriately.
MO: Operating Unit => Set the Operating Unit name for which you would like to extract data from source instance. After loading Operating Unit onto the target instance, make sure that this profile option is set if required.
Navigation path to do the above setup:
System Administrator -> Profile -> System.
Query for the above profiles and set the values accordingly.
Descriptive & Key Flex Fields
You must compile and freeze the flex field values before extracting using iSetup.
Otherwise, it would result in partial migration of data. Please verify that all the data been extracted by reporting on your extract before loading to ensure data consistency.
You can load the KFF/DFF data to target instance even the structures in both source as well as target instances are different only in the below cases.
Case 1:
Source => Loc1 (Mandate), Loc2 (Mandate), Loc3, and Loc4
Target=> Loc1, Loc2, Loc3 (Mandate), Loc4, Loc5 and Loc6
If you provide values for Loc1 (Mandate), Loc2 (Mandate), Loc3, Loc4, then locations will be loaded to target instance without any issue. If you do not provide value for Loc3, then API will fail, as Loc3 is a mandatory field.
Case 2:
Source => Loc1 (Mandate), Loc2 (Mandate), Loc3, and Loc4
Target=> Loc1 (Mandate), Loc2
If you provide values for Loc1 (Mandate), Loc2 (Mandate), Loc3 and Loc4 and load data to target instance, API will fail as Loc3 and Loc4 are not there in target instance.
It is always recommended that KFF/DFF structure should be same for both source as well as target instances.
Concurrent Programs and Request Groups
Concurrent program API migrates the program definition(Definition + Parameters + Executable) only. It does not migrate physical executable files under APPL_TOP. Please use custom solution to migrate executable files. Load Concurrent Programs prior to loading Request Groups. Otherwise, associated concurrent program meta-data will not be moved even through the Request Group extract contains associated Concurrent Program definition.
Locations - Geographies
If you have any custom Geographies, iSetup does not have any API to migrate this setup. Enter them manually before loading Locations API.
Currencies Types
iSetup does not have API to migrate Currency types. Enter them manually on target instance after loading Currency API.
GL Fiscal Super user--> setup--> Currencies --> rates -- > types
Associating an Employee details to an User
The extract process does not capture employee details associated with users. So, after loading the employee data successfully on the target instance, you have to configure them again on target instance.
Accounting Setup
Make sure that all Accounting Setups that you wish to migrate are in status “Complete”. In progress or not-completed Accounting Setups would not be migrated successfully.
Note: Currently iSetup does not migrate Sub-Ledger Accounting methods (SLA). Oracle supports some default SLA methods such as Standard Accrual and Standard Cash. You may make use of these two. If you want to use your own SLA method then you need to manually create it on target instances because iSetup does not have API to migrate SLA. If a Primary Ledger associated with Secondary Ledgers using different Chart of Accounts, then mapping rules should be defined in the target instance manually. Mapping rule name should match with XML tag “SlCoaMappingName”. After that you would be able to load Accounting Setup to target instance.
Organization API - Product Foundation Selection Set
All Organizations which are defined in HR module will be extracted by this API. This API will not extract Inventory Organization, Business Group. To migrate Inventory Organization, you have to use Inventory Organization API under Discrete Mfg. and Distribution Selection Set. To extract Business Group, you should use Business Group API.
Inventory Organization API - Discrete Mfg & Distribution Selection Set
Inventory Organization API will extract Inventory Organization information only. You should use Inventory Parameters API to move parameters such as Accounting Information. Inventory Organization API Supports Update which means that you can update existing header level attributes of Inventory Organization on the target instance. Inventory Parameters API does not support update. To update Inventory Parameters, use Inventory Parameters Update API.
We have a known issue where Inventory Organization API migrates non process enabled organization only. If your inventory organization is process enabled, then you can migrate them by a simple workaround. Download the extract zip file to desktop and unzip it. Navigate to Organization XML and edit the XML tag <ProcessEnabledFlag>Y</ProcessEnabledFlag> to <ProcessEnabledFlag>N</ProcessEnabledFlag>. Zip it back the extract and upload to target instance. You can load the extract now. After successful completion of load, you can manually enable the flag through Form UI. We are working on this issue and update you once patch is released to metalink.
Freight Carriers API - Product Foundation Selection Set
Freight Carriers API in Product Foundation selection set requires Inventory Organization and Organization Parameters as prerequisite setup. These two APIs are available under Discrete Mfg. and Distribution Selection Set. Also,Freight Carriers API is available under Discrete Mfg and Distribution Selection Set with name Carriers, Methods, Carrier-ModeServ,Carrier-Org. So, use Discrete Mfg selection set to load Freight Carriers. In next rollup release Freight Carriers API would be removed from Product Foundation Selection Set.
Organization Structure Selection Set
It is highly recommended to set filter and extract and load data related to one Business Group at a time. For example, setup objects such as Locations, Legal Entities,Operating Units,Organizations and Organization Structure Versions support filter by Business Group. So, set the filter for a specific Business Group and then extract and load the data to target instance.
List of mandatory iSetup Fwk patches*
8352532:R12.AZ.A - 1OFF:12.0.6: Ignore invalid Java identifier or Unicode identifier characters from the extracted data
8424285:R12.AZ.A - 1OFF:12.0.6:Framework Support to validate records from details to master during load
7608712:R12.AZ.A - 1OFF:12.0.4:ISETUP DOES NOT MIGRATE SYSTEM PROFILE VALUES
List of mandatory API/functional patches*

Appendix_
How to read logs
·     Logs are very important to diagnose and troubleshoot iSetup issues. Logs contain both functional and technical errors.
·     To find the log, navigate to View Detail screens of Extracts/ Transforms/Loads/Standard/Comparison Reports and click on View Log button to view the log.
·     Generic Loader (FNDLOAD or Seed data loader) logs are not printed as a part of main log. To view actual log, you have to take the request_id specified in the concurrent log and search for the same in Forms Request Search Window in the instance where the request was launched.
·     Functional errors are mainly due to
o     Missing prerequisite data – You did not load one more perquisite API before loading the current API. Example, trying to load “Accounting Setup” without loading “Chart of Accounts” would result in this kind of error.
o     Business validation failure – Setup is incorrect as per business rule. Example, Start data cannot be greater than end date.
o     API does not support Update Records – If the there is a matching record in the target instance and If the API does not support update, then you would get this kind of errors.
o     You unselected Update Records while launching load - If the there is a matching record in the target instance and If you do not select Update Records, then you would get this kind of errors.
Example – business validation failure
o     VONAME = Branches PLSQL; KEY = BANKNAME = 'AIBC‘
o     BRANCHNAME = 'AIBC'
o     EXCEPTION = Please provide a unique combination of bank number, bank branch number, and country combination. The 020, 26042, KA combination already exists.
Example – business validation failure
o     Tokens: VONAME = Banks PLSQL
o     BANKNAME = 'OLD_ROYAL BANK OF MY INDIA'
o     EXCEPTION = End date cannot be earlier than the start date
Example – missing prerequisite data.
o     VONAME = Operating Unit; KEY = Name = 'CAN OU'
o     Group Name = 'Setup Business Group'
o     ; EXCEPTION = Message not found. Application: PER, Message Name: HR_ORG_SOB_NOT_FOUND (Set of books not found for ‘Setup Business Group’)
Example – technical or fwk error
o     OAException: System Error: Procedure at Step 40
o     Cause: The procedure has created an error at Step 40.
o     Action: Contact your system administrator quoting the procedure and Step 40.
Example – technical or fwk error
o     Number of installed languages on source and target does not match.

For my demonstration I am looking to Install the softphone in a windows PC.
My doubt is what all software combination required for Jabber technologies??
1)Either CUCM+Presence+Jabber(What Versons??)
2)CUCM+Jabber.(Versions??)
We have 3 MCS in our lab and running CUCM version 7.0.If we need a later version for this to support ??
I serached in google for good document but no luck.....Please give me a good documents for integeration and configuration for this requiremnets.

Help define the requirements for an Oracle Spatial management tool

Hi,
We are developing a tool that, we hope, will be indispensable for all Oracle Spatial and Locator dbas/users. We've released version 1.0, but we need your help to define the requirements for the next version.
What features would you like to have in a management tool for your spatial databases?
The features we've got so far:
1. Viewing of vector data in a map + attributes
2. Loading from shapefiles
3. Exporting to shapefiles
4. Validating metadata, indexes and spatial data.
We are adding editing of vectors in the next version - basic stuff for add, update and delete.
But there must be a lot more. What do you find difficult to do in Oracle Spatial/Locator? What would you like in a tool such as this?
Any feedback either to myself or the forum is much appreciated.
cheers,
Andrew
[email protected]
PS If you like to have a look at what we have done so far, go to http://www.geometryit.com/products/spatialConsole.php

Andrew knows what I have asked for but for others to think about and to start
the ball rolling, here's what they are:
1. Ability to enter own SQL commands but with PARAMETERS for attributes
and shapes as in the following examples:
SELECT ...
FROM my_spatial_table a
WHERE a.ATTRIBUTE = :attr
AND MDSYS.SDO_RELATE(a.shape,:polygon,'mask=anyinteract') = 'TRUE'
When executed the attribute value is asked for via a input box (data type?)
and the user is asked to define the SDO_GEOMETRY for the :polgygon parameter via mouse clicks on the screen.
Similarly, this would work for INSERT, UPDATE and DELETE...
INSERT INTO my_spatial_table (shape) values(:polygon)
The data type of an attribute parameter could be determined in two ways:
a) By querying the Oracle catalog;
b) By using a "PARAMETERS" command before the query as follows
PARAMETERS name type [(size)] [, name type [(size)] ...]
The PARAMETERS declaration has these parts:
name     The name of the parameter.
type     The type of the parameter.
size     The size of the parameter in characters or bytes.
2. When executing an SQL SELECT statement I would like the tool
to suggest the HINTS that are needed to improve performance.
3. Following on from 2, I would like to Tick an option that would return the
EXPLAIN PLAN that the query optimizer used when executing my query.
4. The tool has to support ALL Oracle's spatial vector data types.
5. It would be nice to be able to work with GeoRasters. Since Spatial Console
imports/exports shapefiles why not the same for rasters. However, the problem
with supporting foreign data formats is WHERE DO YOU STOP!!!!!
6. You could allow for the styling of the Spatial Console to be stored in the MapViewer catalogs or use the MapViewer catalogs when styling an Sdo_Geometry if it exists (I note that your tool extracts the SDO_METADATA
why not the MapViewer metadata as well)?

"The software required for communicating with the iPod is not installed..."

I realize my explanation of my problem is long-winded, so if you want a shortened version, here it is:
I've followed all the instructions trying nearly everything, and no matter what I do, iTunes gives me the error saying: "The software required for communicating with the iPod is not installed correctly. Please reinstall iTunes to install the iPod's software." My G5 iPod (60GB) works on two other computers (both without any music on them), so I assume there something wrong with my computer and not the iPod itself.
Now for the long-winded story of the last eight hours of my life...
I just got the Generation-5 iPod Video (60GB) a today and I'm having problems already. I followed the instructions and installed the iPod software and then plugged in my iPod (iTunes has been on my computer for a while now). I was expecting iTunes to open after plugging in the iPod, but my device manager only detected and installed "a new device". I manually opened iTunes and got an error saying: "The software required for communicating with the iPod is not installed correctly. Please reinstall iTunes to install the iPod's software."
After re-installing the iPod software and iTunes, and restarting my computer countless times, I came looking for help here. I found this page, which seemed to outline my problem exactly. My computer recognizes the iPod as a drive, but iTunes won't have anything to do with it. I have all the symptoms outlined in the heading, so I hoped to solve my problem there. I followed the instructions step-by-step, and after the final restart, I open iTunes to get the same exact error message.
I decided to determine whether there was a problem with my iPod or if it was my computer. I plugged my iPod into my uncles's powerbook, and got to the point where I can name and configure my iPod. I expected it to work flawlessly on a Mac (which it did) but there is no way for me to continue using a Mac (after tomorrow) for my iPod. This formatted the iPod for a Mac, so I went to another (different from the original) Windows computer, clean of any iTunes and iPod software, and followed the instructions exactly as they're supposed to be followed. After the installations, I plugged in my iPod, and although iTunes didn't open, I was able to format back to Windows and name my iPod (a step in the right direction). I should note that my (anti-iPod) computer is a Windows XP Pro, and the working one is Windows XP Home Edition. This was all well and good, until I remembered there was no music on this computer. So my iPod is completely working there, but there isn't anything I can do with it.
Next, I came back here and browsed around the discussion boards, hoping to find somebody with a similar problem to mine. There seems to be alot of errors concerning iTunes not recognizing the iPod, but none of the solutions I tried worked for me, including changing the drive letter. I get the "iPod Service Error" while trying to restore to factory settings through iPod updater.
Of course, I could transfer all 32GB of music from one computer to another, but the second (working) computer isn't mine and I won't have access to it in a couple months. It would be most convenient if I could get my iPod working on my own computer. Any help would be appreciated, especially from somebody who has solved this problem or know how to solve this problem.
P.S.
Here are some other minor details that my be important, but I didn't feel they were worth including.
- My brother has his iPod mini set up on my computer, under a different user login. He gets the same error once in a while, but re-installing iTunes always solves the problem for him. I had him try solving my problem his way, but nothing worked for him either.
- My computer is an AMD Athlon 64 Processor 3200+, 512MB RAM with Windows XP Pro SP2 installed. My internal hard drive is partitioned, using the letters C, D and H (C being my system files, D used for recovery files and H for my applications and games). My E drive is used as a DVD/CD-ROM Drive, and drives F and G are reserved for virtual drives (none have been running during this entire ordeal). My external hard drive uses the letter I, and I manually set my iPod to use the letter J (I've never used 'J' for anything else before).
- Yes, I have downloaded and installed the latest versions of iTunes and the iPod software.
- I'm assuming there is a problem with my computer and not my iPod, since it worked on both other computers I tried. I'm hoping it's as simple as changing a registry file or cleaning out (yet another) temp directory.

Solution to "Software required for communicating with the iPod is not installed"!
I battled this same problem for about 5 hours. Going through re-installations, the "5 R's", all these discussion boards. Nothing worked.
The problem is that iPodService was repeatedly crashing after minute or so. You can verify this by hitting Ctrl-Alt-Delete and noting that iPodService is missing from the process list (sort by image name), or by right-clicking on My Computer and selecting "Manage", then going to Services and checking out the IPodService service - if it gives you the option to "Start", then it's not running.
Here is what worked.
1. De-install iTunes and iPod (if you have the updater installed) completely by going to Start --> Control Panel --> Add/Remove Programs. Also delete the C:\Program Files\iTunes and c:\Progam Files\iPod\bin directories. (Don't worry, this doesn't affect your saved music files.)
2. Log in as an Administrator
3. Go into the registry (note this is dangerous - you should be careful) and remove the iPod entries that the uninstaller misses.
3.1 Go to Start menu --> Run.
3.2 Type in "regedit".
3.3 Go to HKEYCLASSESROOT --> IPodService.iPodManager.
There are two keys here, iPodManager and iPodManager.1. In my case, I did not have permission to view either of these. I think this is the root cause of the problem. I think the installer can't properly update these because it doesn't have permission. So you need to change the permissions:
3.4 Right-click on IPodService.IPodManager
3.4.1 Select "Permissions..." A warning will appear saying you don't have permission, but that you can change permissions.
3.4.2 On the window that launches, click on "Advanced..."
3.4.3 Click on the "Owner" tab.
3.4.4 Select a valid account (the one you're logged in under) under "Change Owner To".
3.4.5 Hit "OK".
3.4.6 Back on the main Permissions window, hit Add and add the same account as a valid user.
3.4.6.1 Where it says "Enter the object names to select", type in the account name, e.g. "Smith".
3.4.7 Click on the "Allow" checkboxes for "Full Control" and "Read".
3.4.8 Hit "OK".
3.5 Repeat procedure for the "iPodManager.1" key.
3.6 Now right-click and delete both of these keys.
I think that's all that's required, but I also searched through the registry and deleted the following keys.
4. Other keys I deleted:
4.1 HKEYCLASSESROOT --> IPodManager.IPodManagerUI.1
4.2 HKEYLOCALMACHINE --> SOFTWARE --> Apple Computer Inc. --> iPod
I think that's all I deleted, but I'm not positive. I seached for instances of "ipod" using the Find... and Find Next functions under the Edit menu.
5. Exit out of the registry editor.
6. Re-install iTunes. I re-installed iTunes and reconnected the iPod, and everything worked.
I want to repeat that editing the registry can completely mess up your computer if you modify the wrong things, so only do this if you're comfortable, and be extremely careful.
Hopefully this helps!
Apple support people: assuming this works, please add it to your solutions page, and feel free to reimburse me for spending half of Christmas figuring this out.

Repair your Apple software update.
Go to START/ALL PROGRAMS/Apple Software Update. If it offers you a newer version of Apple Software Update, do it but Deselect any other software offered at the same time. Once done, try another iTunes install
If you don't find ASU, go to Control Panel:
START/CONTROL PANEL/Programs n Features/highlight ASU and click REPAIR,

Is there a way to change the hotkey for starting firefox in safe-mode?

The current default hotkey is shift. Holding it when starting firefox will start it in safe mode (true story). My super duper favorite handy windows hotkey for starting programs pinned to the task bar in windows 7 is windows_key + shift + #, and that conflicts with the firefox setting, and i always end up starting firefox in safe mode because im that lazy.

Greetings!
I'm an irssi user, and I have awesome mouse gesture addon for it, and I'm afraid I can't live without it anymore.. But it requires Shift key for opening links, therefore Firefox, as my default browser, always starts in Safe mode :(
I'm not a programmer, easiest workaround would be modifying the irssi addon, but I suck on that, too.
If there's a way to bypass Safe Mode in Firefox, or at least a way to change the Shift key to something else, that would make my miserable life a tad easier.

SOLUTION to "Software required for communicating with the iPod is not insta

Folks, I can not take credit for this.....you should send your checks to MarkinMadison. I've included his post in it's entirety. For me, this was the Holy Grail !!
My only comment is make sure when you are in the registry that you hit the "apply" button to change and add things.
This probably won't solve everyone's problem but it clearly solved mine (and I tried all other "solutions"), as well as Mark's.
Apple: please find out who MarkinMadison is and either cut him a big check or offer him free Ipods for life.

I have also posted the same question, earlier today. I purchased two for my children and cannot get the iPod to communicate with the computer. I have the iTunes software on my system, but during the installation process I cannot click the NEXT button, once I plug the iPod cable in. The computer does not detect it. I have tried all 6 USB 2.0 ports. I even removed the Dell Jukebox and MusicMatch programs. I am not a computer savvy person - just a mom who wants to give these to my children for Christmas. This is the first "chat" site I have even registered on. I am so very frustrated. Hopefully, this can be resolved.

Perhaps let's first try updating your Apple Software Update.
Launch Apple Software Update ("Start > All Programs > Apple Software Update"). Does it launch and offer you a newer version of Apple Software Update? If so, choose to install just that update to Apple Software Update. (Deselect any other software offered at the same time.)
If the ASU update goes through okay, try another iTunes install. Does it go through without the errors this time?
