Screen question since i dont understand

so i have been reading all of these issues with the macbook pro's (late 2008) display hinges problems (where they will not hold the screen open if the computer is tilted (towards the user) at more than 45 degrees the screen will just shut almost completely)....
so since i ordered one, i got really concerned (but since i live 2.5 blocks from the fifth avenue store in nyc i walked there.... i tested 6 of the 8 display units (macbook pro's) and saw that the screen would only shut wen i passed the 45 degree line.... so this would make me think that it isnt that bad since i dont think i ever tilted my macbook more than 45 degrees as i dont sit upside down or lay on the floor keeping the base 90 degrees from my body.....
and as the sales agent said (it is a pretty heavy screen considering its made with glass)... i think it isnt that much of a downer.....
give me ur opinions..... as i am awaiting mine to arrive on monday

For some people, they do need to pull the lid down over 45 degree. Especially when you need the computer to stay on and leave it in the open, you'd want to protect your screen from any physical disturbance that might happen (i.e. pets/bugs attacking the monitor, etc.).
The solution I can think of is getting some soft rubber pads and put it under the bezel to prevent it from completely closing down.

Ok so I got my mac mini today and I am trying to set it up but my wireless keyboard does not sync up. I have tried entering the code that the mini displays but still cannot get past the sync keyboard screen. Since I dont have a wired keyboard ...any ideas

Happy Thanksgiving. Any ideas on how to sync up a brand new man mini with a wireless keyboard. My attempts at following the directions have been frustated so far. Entering the numerical code has not yet led to a successful sync up.

Alright, very good.

Hi all, i need urgently your help please. My touch screen on muy Iphone 5 is not working, i dont understand as it has not been damaged at all, i dont know what happened and need urgently somebody helps me please

Please anyone there can help me what I can do??!! touch screen of my Iphone 5 is not working at all and dont understand as it has not been damage and it is only 2 months and half!! it is not an old iphone and it has not been damaged, has happened right now and cannot turn off the mobile at all. Tried to take out the nano sim as i though it will be turned off but it has not been! i dont know what i can do and i am desesperate!!! thanks All for your help!!

Removing the SIM has no affect on the power of the phone. It is just the part that facilitates connecting to your carrier. Try holding the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo on the screen and then release the buttons. The phone should reboot. You may need to hold the buttons together for 15-30 seconds.

I dont understand creating classes they seem a waste of time and efficiency

I dont understand why we would want to create classes with constructors and get and set statements... I know that VB and Java did not create these just to have us writing extra code so I am missing something in my thinking.
I read about data hiding and that I understand I guess...but everytime my professors want me to create a class then create an object from that class to access it I dont really get it. I know how to do the basics of it but I can do all of it in my main or the primary class whats the benefit of creating a whole entire class such as the following?
Everytime I get an assignment and they are like create a class and I try to rack my head for a good idea but the nearest analogy I can come up with is this... creating your own class seems like one of those old straws you drink out of with all the loops, yes you can make it go around in a big loop but why waste time? you want to get to point A to point B so create the most efficient way to get there if possible.
I am sure the problem is I am not seeing something and there is some logic missing but I just am getting irritated as I am not seeing it and I am finding it, its like I add an extra obstacle course to my code for no other reason than to run through a bunch of extra tasks that I could perform in my main class or main.
input is welcome to help me arrive at some type of enlightenment thanks
Class may not be the correct wording for this as I know we have to have a class but what I mean is a non application class. The class I have below goes with another class that actually does a lot of stuff but I am forced to push data through this class that basically does nothing but run water through some different pipes if you will. To me thats a waste when I can do everything in my original class which was called menu that I am messing with and that creates an array for a user who wants to keep a list of his items and prices of those items in inventory.
public class Item
private String itemName;
private double itemPrice;
 public Item()
public Item (String item, double price)
setName(item);
setPrice(price);
public String getName()
 return itemName;
public void setName(String item)
 itemName = item;
public double getPrice()
 return itemPrice;
public void setPrice(double price)
 itemPrice= price;

What I was plugging into it and please forgive the code as its not finished... (I am still messing with it) its just for learning and I am required to have certain parts in the Item Class and Certain parts in the Menu class..... But you it pushes through the input to the java bean.... in a case like this I just dont see the need for doing it not that I can think of anyway.
import java.util.Scanner;//my imports for scanner so can read from the screen
import java.util.*;//imports for my array I used astrix to just import it all as the book said it does not have any negative affects.
public class Menu //My application class Menu that contains my main
 public static void main(String[] args)//Main method
 final int NUMBER_Of_Elements = 30; //created a symbolic constant so that I only have to change the constant
 //to edit the size of the array if I should want to change it.
 Item[]inventory = new Item[NUMBER_Of_Elements];//I create a new array object with the constant as the number of elements.
 Scanner sc = new Scanner (System.in);//created object from the scanner class used to get input from the console screen.
 System.out.println("Please enter Item on first line and price on second line.");//outputted text to prompt user and give instructions.
 System.out.println("Enter STOP to exit");//instructions on how to exit the program. I would have rather used a different
 //word than stop here. If my choice I would have used "exit" as its more widely used and to promote uniformity.
 int count;//count variable used to count my loops very important as we use it to control our arrays and loops here.
 double price;//our variable that we plug in values from the user via the console.
 String item;//same as previously mentioned for the "price"
 System.out.println("Wings Coffee Shop Menu");
 System.out.println("");
 System.out.println("Menu Item Price");
 for (count=0; count<inventory.length; ++count)//This is our for loop it uses the length method to control how many times
 //it runs. In this case inventory.length = 30 elements so would run 30 times unless it stopped early.
 item = sc.nextLine();//reads the input from console into the item variable.
 if(item.equalsIgnoreCase("STOP"))//if statement that states if = stop (ignores case sensitivity) then it will break out of the loop.
 break;//the break command which is executed if the if statement is true.
 price = Double.parseDouble(sc.nextLine());//
 inventory[count]= new Item(item, price);
 Item Call = new Item(item, price);
 System.out.printf("%-13s %.2f\n", Call.getName(), Call.getPrice());
 System.out.println("Wings Coffee Shop Menu");
 System.out.println("");
 System.out.println("Menu Item Price");
// for(int x = 0; x < count; ++x)
// System.out.printf("%15s\n",inventory[x].toString());
// System.out.printf("%-13s %.2f\n", Call.getName(), Call.getPrice());
// String[] namesOfItems = {"Coffee", "Milk", "Soda", "Bagel", "Croissant", "Donut"};
// double[] prices = {3.99, 2.99, 2.49, 2.99, 2.49, 1.99};
// for(int x = 0; x < prices.length; ++x)
// System.out.printf("%-13s %.2f\n", namesOfItems[x], prices[x]);
// Item arrayPrice = new Item(); HOW COME I CANNOT CREATE THIS OBJECT?
// Item call = new Item ();
// Item Call = new Item("item", 4.9);

Hi,
OK. That means the default display lange of the OS is Thai. That is what was purchased.
You can try downloading and using the language appropriate LIPS (language interface package software) from Microsoft to change the display language.

I initially used the swipe gesture to go to the full screen, and since then have not been able to revert to the screen where I can see my program icons. I have reverted to using Firefox. Any suggestions?

When I installed OS 10.7.1 I used the gesture in Safari which displays the full screen. Since then I have been unable to revert this action in order to see my program icons. I have had to use Firefox since then. Any suggestions? Or will I have to wait for an upfate?

EgisTec, who now provide the HP Simplepass application, have made an update of the scanner software for Firefox 4, for details see https://support.mozilla.com/questions/814397

Dont understand what i should put down for host name for creating an email account?

Dont understand incoming and outcoming server. dont know what to put for host name.
can someone help?

Do you have your email account set up on your computer e.g. on Outlook on a PC or Mail on a Mac ? If you have then you should be able to sync the settings from that to your iPad via the Info tab when connected to your computer's iTunes. Or you could just look at the settings for the account on your computer's email program and copy them over to the iPad manually.
The incoming and outgoing server names are the servers that your email provider uses for your account to recieve (incoming) and send (outgoing) emails. A lot of accounts should be covered by the options that are listed on the 'Add Account' screen - for my Yahoo based accounts I just chose Yahoo! and the settings were set for me. If you have an account that isn't covered by those types then you could try logging into your account via a browser and see if they have any help for what settings you need to use. Different account providers have different settings, so if your can't find anything on your provider's site if you say on here who your provider is there might be somebody else here who has the same provider and can tell you what settings to use.

Why cant apple track my stolen iphone if it connects to the internet after reset. the IMEI number stays the same so i dont understand why they just dont shut it off and call me and the police to inform me about the whereabouts of the phone

Hi, my iphone was stolen around a month ago. After the phone popped up on find my iphone in central london the police decided to be really helpful and instead going to get it they closed my case. Since then it has been offline because the "lovely" individual who stole it obviously reset it. I was just wondering why doesnt apple track phones through the IMEI number. The number stays the same, so if the phone connects to the network they should be able to know that its my stolen iphone. I just dont understand why they dont do that. They have a huge ecosystem, and if someone signs in to my iphone with their itunes account (which they pretty much have to in order to use most of the phones features) the IMEI number gets associated with that perticular account. Would it not be possible for them to realize that its my stolen phone?
Thanks to anyone that answers.

Your carrier can lock the IMEI number, try contacting them. At least you'll have the satifsaction of knowing the theif can't use it anymore. My guess is Apple doesn't block IMEI numbers because they don't want someone selling a phone without record, and then reporting it stolen and causing problems that way. But that's just a guess, I feel for ya. Good luck either way, if it's a locked phone you should be able to call the carrier it's locked to and have the IMEI blocked.

TS1398 my ipad is connected to my wi-fi but the app store and itunes store never open, the internet nev    er works and it is always loading. i dont understand as it is a brand new ipad.

my ipad is connected to my wifi but the app store and itunes store never open, the internet never works and it is always loading but never working. I dont understand why as my computer works for my wifi and my brand new ipad should too.

Some things to try first:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
    •    Launch Settings app
    •    Tap on Wi-Fi
    •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
    •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

HT1490 i dont understand what apple is saying!

Plug in the power adapter and fully charge your PowerBook's battery until the light ring or LED on the power adapter plug changes to green and the onscreen meter in the menu bar indicates that the battery is fully charged.
Allow the battery to rest in the fully charged state for at least two hours. You may use your computer during this time as long as the adapter is plugged in.
Disconnect the power adapter while the computer still on and start running the computer off battery power. You may use your computer during this time. When your battery gets low, the low battery warning dialog appears on the screen.
QUESTION!
i dont really get no. 2.
So, we allow the battery to rest in full state for at least two hours and we may use the computer during that time? Are we suppose to use it while it is resting or leave it to rest?
and does it mean that, once it has been fully charged, with the adapter still plugged in, we can use it as long as we want ?

so , what is the right way of maintaining a battery? i should let it run dead right? what is the right time for me to plug my charger in? once it hits 10 percent?
No NEVER let it run down to Zero. That is very bad for the battery. Other then that use it as you like.

I had a similar problem and after deleting endlessly...and weeks of frustration I (without even realizing what I was on to) deleted my text messages. I had been letting them add up since it seemed easier to text someone if it were readily available. Needless to say, I ended up with nearly double the space/memory available.
