Slightly off the wall question here folks
I have my iTunes library on my iMac (Mountain Lion). It backs up to an external USB drive via time machine so I'm covered for HD failure. The imac acs as the base to sync 2 iPhones.
I also have a mac mini running on the network (Leopard).
I would like to sync a copy of my main itunes library to the mac mini to act as a escond backup but ,mainly to act as a server using home sharing (the imac is not always on, but the mini is set never to sleep and is in a cupboard.)
Could I set time machine to alternately backup to the usb drive and the mini thus creating two time machine copies and then set itunes on the mini actually to USE its time machine copy as itsd itunes library? Bear in mind that I would not be changing anything on the mini. Would the mini TM library then periodically stay in sync via the time machine backups with the main iMac library?
I know that TM is not intended to be used like this but would it work?
If not is there another way of doing this (eg using SuperDuper or Chronosync to periodically copy the iMac library to the mini, and would this need itunes to be quit on the mini during the backup or would it not matter?)
I took a look at that site, and my opinion is that the legality is highly suspect. The disclaimer at the bottom of the page says "All copyrights are upheld with their respective game owners." Quite what that means is unclear. Did the site owner clear the copyright with each single game owner? Or does it mean that the copyright remains with the original game owners?
The quality of the site design is very amateurish, and it uses JavaScript to try to prevent anyone seeing the source code. I did check the source of one game, and saw that it was hosted locally in a Flash movie. Very suspect.

Off the wall question: network an Apple II?
Has anyone networked an Apple II to their current network? Is it EVEN possible?
I have my first computer, an Apple IIc and was wondering if I could get it and either my iMac G5 (Leopard) or my iMac G4 (Tiger) to "talk". The IIc runs ProDOS 8.
I also have a IIGS CPU, but no display, or keyboard and mouse for it.I don't know too much about the Apple II, and I'm not sure that there's many other people on these forums that do. It's a very old product.
You could try a Google search, there might be the answer to your question in a different forum on the Web. Or maybe someone who knows the answer to this will see your post. -
How do I remove a portrait shadow off the wall?
how do I remove a portrait shadow off the wall?
With whatever technique works, presumably cloning?! Sorry, but this is one of those "Can I fly to Mars?" questions. Anything is possible, but you have not provided nearly enough info, most importantly the actual image for reference and then info about your system, your version of PS, your experience level and whatnot.

I got to thinking which is never good I wounder if this would even be possible? (This is where i need input from you) I have no idea why or how i even came up with the crazy thing but got to thinkin that it just might work?
Could i take the 3.3v like of the molex connector, tie in a few resistors and lower voltage down to about 2.0v then soder the wire coming off the resistor to the back of mobo to give CPU more power.
1. Would i be right saying this could work??
2. Would the voltage back feed in the system and damage caps or chips on mobo?well, ahve a look anyway.
you might find that, for example. that board uses the exact same v-core controler chip as the nf7 ... in which case it shouldnt be to hard to make the same mod work for your board.
if your feeling brave - dig up the specs for whatever chip does the controling on that board. and work out if it works ona system like "v-core sence pin = voltage in from cpu, over 10 ohms. the lower the current seen, the more output fromt he regulator" if so, find the whatever value resistor, replace it. your done. instant volt mod. obv wont be as simple as this, but you get the idea.
the last resort i can think of, is to focus on makign those volts you have do more for you. eg, add extra capacitors, to smooth the output, run thick ol wire from the end of the regulating to the voltage pins on abck of socket. this kind of thing. Certainly, people see, or sued to see, good gains by feeding aditional lines to the regulators. eg, the classic 5V mod from te old KK266 was jsut get some THICK wire ,and run from 5V on atx header to the 5V in on the first stage of the power regulation. increacing the voltage a little (say .02v) thru reduced loss.
actualy...

pin mod.
selec the DEFAULT V-CORE you want with a pin mod maybe that will help. good luck - aparently this will alow .05V more.... lol -
Hey lads,
does anyone know off the hand, wheather there is a search class
already in the librarys, or do you have to write one yourself? Like,
can you just pass in a array, Vector etc. with the elements you want to search?
regards,
Brian (Student)Sorry I should have been more specific.
I want to sort through a list of names, but i need it
to be done in a generic way, because the setup of the
tables where im retrieving the data could be setup in
different ways. (its part of my 4th yr project).The collections framework is a set of dynamic data structures you can store any object in. Many of them can be sorted, like ArrayList and LinkedList. Others are kept sorted at all times, like ThreeMap. I'm sure you'll find something suitable if you have a look there. -

Bouncing off the wall: Problems with passing/using pointers to classes
I have a mostly completed "msPaint" (=assigment) program that is driving me nuts!!!
1. First shape you draw doesn't appear.
1.5 Draw a shape by clicking twice on Panel, can change shape, color, fill with what buttons you see.
2. Subsequently only the newest shape appears. Using System.println(); it appears to be drawing as many shapes as it has made, but it doesn't.
3. I owe much to anyone who helps me, here is complete code. Specifically will ask/reward you to reply to a diff link in which I have dukes, got no answer, and can't reallocate dukes. (=5)
Thank you very much.

I like what you've done but (in my humble opinion) it needs a lot of reworking.
Your problem is you're not storing the shapes. You've set up an array but you never assign the shapes to it. I would reccomend using a vector. Heres a quick bit of pseudo code.
Listener class
mouseClicked method
if first click
get mouse x/y
if second click
get mouse x/y
create new MyShape(x1, y1, x2, y2)
call data.addShape(new MyShape)
Data class
constructor
this.myVector = new Vector()
addShape(MyShape shape) method
this.myVector.addElement(shape) -- add new shape
this.myVector.remove(0) -- remove bottom shape
drawAllShapes method
Enumeration enum= this.myVector.elements()
while(enum.hasMoreElements())
MyShape shape = (MyShape)enum.nextElement()
shape.draw()
Feel free to ask any questions.

that's where my newly purchased "open box" UN65HU8700 came from.When I buy something for $2000+ I don't expect any problems when it is from BB.Great delivery,but delivery man could not turn on tv.After he left I played with the remote,replaced the dead batterries and turned it on.To the point.I was in formed all accessories were included with this particular set.I believe the tv should be ready for delivery and have the set tuned out of "Store Demo" mode,have the proper remote(s),some sort of paperwork for startup instructions to get to the e-manual.After calling the store to inform them there was no "3D" button on the remote I drove to the store and was given a remote that had the proper button from a very understanding sales rep.After replacing the "dead batteries" in the 2nd remote I was able to get into 3D but,that is all it does.So now to use my tv I have 3 remotes to operate.BB was not prepared to make this delivery and a training program should be set up for us "lowly open box buyers."I don't thinl BB will be getting to deliver any more items to me that were open box.They taught me a lesson.
E601i-A3,Samsung PN51D6500,Insignia NS39L240A13,Samsung BRD6500,Sony CT100.Hello tripod,
Open box items are a great way to get an amazing product for less than retail value, and I’m glad to hear that you were able to take advantage of one when you purchased a Samsung TV from our Wyomissing store. I can imagine your dismay though when you discovered the TV may have been missing some accessories, and I’m truly sorry for any frustration our potential oversight may have caused you, especially if you cannot properly connect your cable box and other home theatre products to your TV as a direct result.
When posting an open box listing online or in-store, our associates should be making sure to provide the condition of the item available as well as list the missing accessories (if any). In your case, I pulled up your TV and found we listed it as “Satisfactory”. This means your TV may show moderate signs of use that affect cosmetic appearance, but have no impact on performance. Additionally, your TV screen should be intact and fully functional, with no visible blemishes in the viewing area. (A satisfactory product will not include dents, chips, cracks or deep scratches.) In addition, original packaging is typically not present, and the manual along with nonessential parts or accessories may be missing, such as a commonly available cable or remote.
Having said this, it seems our listing fails to acknowledge that the remote provided doesn’t have the 3D button needed for 3D viewing and the IR extender cable is not included. Please know I’m partnering with our Wyomissing store leadership to see what options we may have available to us at this time. I hope to have some answers for you within the next couple of business days.
Thank you for your patience,
Alex|Social Media Specialist | Best Buy® Corporate

Why did I ever install ios 8.02. Nothing is right on my ipad. Jerky movement, screen freeze, pop up window telling me unable to download item ( what item?), wifi connection problems. My next tablet will not be an apple product.
In general theory, one now has the Edit button for their posts, until someone/anyone Replies to it. I've had Edit available for weeks, as opposed to the old forum's ~ 30 mins.
That, however, is in theory. I've posted, and immediately seen something that needed editing, only to find NO Replies, yet the Edit button is no longer available, only seconds later. Still, in that same thread, I'd have the Edit button from older posts, to which there had also been no Replies even after several days/weeks. Found one that had to be over a month old, and Edit was still there.
Do not know the why/how of this behavior. At first, I thought that maybe there WAS a Reply, that "ate" my Edit button, but had not Refreshed on my screen. Refresh still showed no Replies, just no Edit either. In those cases, I just Reply and mention the [Edit].
Also, it seems that the buttons get very scrambled at times, and Refresh does not always clear that up. I end up clicking where I "think" the right button should be and hope for the best. Seems that when the buttons do bunch up they can appear at random around the page, often three atop one another, and maybe one way the heck out in left-field.
While I'm on a role, it would be nice to be able to switch between Flattened and Threaded Views on the fly. Each has a use, and having to go to Options and then come back down to the thread is a very slow process. Jive is probably incapable of this, but I can dream.

Off the wall but is CL doing anything to promote the X-ram with develope
Just curious if CL is activly working with game dev's to encourage & promote the use of X-ram features?
bratboy,
I haven't really heard any specifics, but I'm sure they must be. I imagine that loading uncompressed samples to the card for use during gameplay has got to peak the interest of any developer interested in better sound quality with minimal system overhead.
I would think gunshots or other such frequently used sounds in multi-player games would be ideal for something like this. Would have to be much better to have many voices pulling from the onboard ram as opposed decompressing samples from system ram and passing them over the already busy PCI bus. I think as more developers transition to OpenAL, we will see more usage of the XRam in game titles.
The XRAM SDK from developer.creative.com lists the following usage scenarios in the docs.
X-RAM Usage Scenarios
Detecting the presense of X-RAM offers new possibilities to application developers. As a fixed resource dedicated to storing audio samples, an application can use X-RAM to improve the performance and quality of an application.
When X-RAM could be used: -
Improving Quality
An application that detects X-RAM can use higher quality audio assets that it might not be able to use otherwise.
Improving Performance
A game that detects X-RAM can decompress compresed audio samples at load time into the X-RAM so that the application does not have to spend precious processor cycles decompressing data during runtime.
When X-RAM should not be used: -
Streaming
There is an overhead involved with uploading data to the memory which means that X-RAM is not recommended for storing AL Buffers, whose contents will be constantly changing, e.g. when queuing buffers on an Open AL Source.
Again, this is not strictly on topic, but the functionality of the XRam must certainly be pretty interesting to game devs. Much like texture memory on graphics cards.

Iphone charger blown off the socket
literally 2 hours ago my iphone charger blown up off the wall and knackered my phone 5s.
has anybody else experinced similar issue if so whats steps except ring apple obviously! they said they are gonna give me a replacement, but dont want this to happen again!
thought someone was letting a firework off in my room lolodd I believed you brits had fused inside that huge connector to avoid something like this from ever happening
but as I see it then it is likely down to dodgy components inside the charger and as I havent seen many posts like yours here I would be a low % risk of it happening again at least to you -
My iPod touch 4g won't charge of the wall or computer?
My 4th gen. iPod touch will not charge off the wall or connect to a computer to charge. The computer doesn't even recognize my iPod but it does recognize an iPhone on both the wires we have. Neither wire works on my iPod though. I've tried all the apple solutions but it made no difference. I suspect the software may have corrupted when I plugged it into my computer because it was working earlier off the wall. I can't format it through settings for some reason. Also it wont even turn on it just sits ont he apple icon indefinantly.
Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Why my iPad 4 become very lag after upgrade to iOS 8.0.2 and not sensitive anymore when press the keyboard and programs it didn't respond when I type the word using the keyboard fast it lag until I cannot locked or switch off the phone
Same issue here both with my iphone 5S as well as my iPad2. THe sync to my macbook air does not complete and it shows a large overcapacity level when connected, but once I disconnect there is plenty of room (4 GB) available, not a 20 GB overage.

My wife ran the battery down in her shuffle. When I plug it in to the wall or computer, it will blink red solid for about 3 seconds and then shut off. Is the battery that dead, or is something else wrong. ITunes does not show the shuffle
Hi Jennsman40,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
If this symptom persists even after you charge your iPod Shuffle, see this page for some troubleshooting steps:

HDD Error -36 question: Am I on the right track here?
Hey folks,
HDD question here.
I have a 13” early ’11 MBP, 320 GB HDD, came with Lion, now running ML, anticipating a soon upgrade to Mavs. 16 GB of RAM. All updates current.
Started running out of HDD space with all my photo and video work and about a year and a half ago I bought a 1 TB WD portable, used it lots, no problems.
Last night, I bought a 2 TB WD portable. Started copying my Photo folder over, and I got lots of the dreaded Error 36, “The Finder can’t complete the operation because some data in “IMG_0596.CR2” can’t be read or written. (Error code -36)”
This is the first time I have seen this error with either/any drive.
So I have these two external WD drives with two cables, so I tried copying one of the offending folders to both drives
(both the 1 TB and the 2 TB, one at a time) using both/either cables. Both drives and cables give me the same error.
In short, either drive, in either USB slot, with either cable gets the same error.
In shorter, I think I have eliminated the external drives as the source of the problem.
Thoughts?
FYI, the 1 TB is Mac OS Extended (Journaled)
The 2 TB is MS-DOS (FAT32), though I am 99% sure I will be converting it to Extended/Journaled ASAP. (thoughts?)
In the last 6 months I’ve noticed things running slower…a LOT slower, at least it seems like.
Granted, my HDD has been a bit packed, but I’ve offloaded a lot too.
More beach ball action than seems to be normal, etc etc, even with all this RAM.
My total boot time (cold) is:
1:30 to login screen
1:57 to loaded desktop.
By way of comparison, this same MBP will boot to Snow Leopard off an external drive in 1:13 to a loaded desktop.
My question:
I’ve HEARD that the Error -36 can be a likely precursor to drive failure.
[U]Given what I’ve mentioned here, is the most likely candidate for a failed drive my main HDD?
Are there other things I should check first?[/U]
I have a chance to buy a Seagate Momentus XT 750 GB hybrid SSD drive out of a Mac, and it has very little use on it.
(I'd be buying from a family member I trust).
Thoughts on that?I might not explain my question well in my previous post -- there is no business logic involved in what I am doing to go from the first entity bean to the second entity bean and to go from the second entity bean to the third entity bean.
Based on the login information, I have to go through those entity beans to find the very specific row in the third table in order to get the data field I need. That is to say, only thing involved is searching for rows.
In my view, session bean -- > 1st entity bean -- > 2nd entity bean -- > 3rd entity bean
1. session bean -- > 1st entity bean: remote call and returns the key to the 1st entity bean for locating the 2nd entity bean
2. 1st entity bean -- > 2nd entity bean: local call and returns the key to the 2nd entity bean for locating the 3rd entity bean
3. 2nd entity bean -- > 3rd entity bean: local call and then returns the value of the specific field to the session bean
The alternative approach is:
session bean
|
+ + +
1st entity bean 2nd entity bean 3rd entity bean
1. session bean -- > 1st entity bean: remote call and returns the key to the session bean for locating the 2nd entity bean
2. session bean -- > 2nd entity bean: remote call
and returns the key to the session bean for locating the 3rd entity bean
3. session bean -- > 3rd entity bean: remote call and the session bean can get the value of the specific field from the 3rd entity bean
I do not know which approach to go for. Please provide guidance. Thanks.
