Hi Guys,

Many thanks
Ian

Are you saying that you have an iWeb blog hosted on a 3rd party ftp server which allows visitors to add comments? That would be a first since the following has always been part of iWeb's Help file:
Features Unavailable When Publishing to a 3rd Party Server:
◼ Password protection
◼ Blog and photo comments
◼ Blog search
◼ Hit counter
The following is a screenshot of iWeb Help on publishing to an ftp server:
Currently if the site is published directly from iWeb to the 3rd party server the RSS feed and slideshow subscription features will work. However, if the site is first published to a folder on the hard drive and then uploaded to the sever with a 3rd party FTP client those two feature will be broken.

I want to play an Elder Scrolls game on my iPad. What's the next best thing?

You know, like Morrowind, Oblivion, or Skyrim. A full on rpg. I would settle for something with a similar feel to it, a science fiction setting might even be ok. If I can't play an Elder Scrolls game on my ipad, what's the next best thing?
Thank you.

A fair number of folks ask here for certain types of apps. In you search the app store you will get at least a couple that look like rpg games. But the form factor is not real good. Rage hd would give you a feel for what tou and cannout get on tablet. Pretty good graphics, pretty rough controls.

Physically disable wi-fi & bluetooth or the next best thing

We have updated our Mac Pro towers and on the old towers I was able to open up the tower and disconnect the airport and bluetooth cards. I don't see any option for doing that on our newer 12-core units, or am I missing something?
If I can't unplug Airport and Bluetooth, what is the next best thing?
I have tried terminal commands sudo ifconfig en2 down but that's the same as selecting Turn Wi-Fi Off and a user can simply select Turn Wi-Fi on.
For now I have turned wi-fi and bluetooth off and removed them from the network menu which is pretty good, but someone can probably easily press + on the network prefs page and be back online, so I'm looking for a little more security that what I've done to remove possible outside connections.
(FYI: please don't ask why, this is a security measure and we only want clients to access the local network FTP server to send files to the outside world. This has saved the company a few times from blame as files need to physically leave our system or go thru the FTP server)

a user can simply select Turn Wi-Fi on
Instead of deleting, use the gear Icon and choose "Make Service Inactive"
This appears to require Admin access to make unlock the lock to make active again.

What is the next software update for my Mac OS X v10.5.8? What do i need to to do?

What is the next software update for my Mac OS X v10.5.8? What do i need to to do?

10.5.8 is the last free update available for your system. If you wish to upgrade to newer versions of Mac OS X, you will first need to purchase and install a copy of Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard. Snow Leopard is back on the online Apple Store, at least in some countries. In the US:
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
If it's not listed on the web site of the Apple Store in your country, call the online Apple Store, they may still have copies of Snow Leopard available.
Once you have upgraded to Snow Leopard, you then will have the option to upgrade to Mac OS X 10.7 Lion or 10.8 Mountain Lion, if you wish to do so and your system will support it.
Regards.

What is the next software update for ipod touch 4

will ipod touch 4th generation ever get iOS 7
What is the next software update for ipod touch 4

No.
All the iOS devices compatible (iPhone 4 and later, iPad 2 and later, and 5G iPod touch) with iOS 7 have at least 512 MB of memory. The 4G only has 256 MB
I would not expect any more updates for the 4G

So Apple is making it too hard to buy the new iphone, what is the next best

The nearest apple store is about an hour and a half away for me. I'm told that to get a 3G I should show up at the store at around 7:00 a.m.
WHAT? Apple thinks that they can treat longtime customers like this? I am appalled!
I have already waited weeks to let the buzz die down a bit, But this is just nuts.
My Dumb phone is dying, and I will soon buy a new phone, I wanted it to be the new iphone but I don't think that I will risk the gas and time to drive that far with a maybe.
What do you think is the next best choice and why?

The fact that I have spent my money on over a dozen Apple computers over the years sure should matter to them. But no, the other people should get good service also!
I'm a little confused. Why do you think you're getting bad service and being treated badly at all because they recommended you come early to get the phone? The iPhone is a very popular item. A lot of people want it, and the phones are being made quickly and shipped out by the boatload to stores around the world. Apple has started opening their stores at 8am (that's two hours earlier) in order to help with demand, to make sure there is more store time to serve all the customers (is that not good service?).
If the store is a first-come-first-serve situation, then you're being given exactly the same service as all other customers, and it's not bad service. It's just the best they can manage given the huge demand for this product. If you were running the store, what would you do? Ask everyone who called to bring all receipts to show how much they've spent at the store and the ones who spend the most get to come in first and get the iPhones while the rest wait? I mean, it'd be nice if all Apple stores treated everyone like kings: "Hello, sir, there's 500 people in the store buying iPhones, but we STILL have one for you, and a private table over there to fill out all AT&T forms. Would you like someone to wave a peacock fan over your head so you don't get hot? Come right this way...espresso?"
I don't think they have enough employees or room for that. Not to mention iPhones.
Now some stores have allowed customers to reserve phones. You might talk to your store manager, discuss your situation (the long drive) and see if this can be done.

HT4623 I don't have iOS on my iPad. What's the next best software upgrade?

iPad runs very slow. Do I need to upgrade software?

Yes you have iOS on the iPad - you have to have some version of it. You may want to trouble shoot the slow iPad before you update to to iOS 6 which is the next version.
Try this and see if it helps. Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
Try this a well. Quit all apps completely and restart the iPad. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the task bar will appear with all of your recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar. Restart the iPad.
Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.

Liquid: What are the suggested best practises for multiple languages?

Right now we are doing this:
{% if globals.country == "EU" %}
{% assign login = "Log in" %}
{% assign userName = "Username" %}
{% assign password = "Password" %}
{% assign rememberMe = "Remember me?" %}
{% assign confirmLogout = "You are now logged out!" %}
{% endif %}
{{login}} would output "Log in"
Another thought would be to have it all in a string with commas and split it, like this:
{% if globals.country == "EU" %}
{% assign strings = "Log in;Username;Password;Remember me?;You are now logged out!" %}
{% assign lang = strings | split: ";" %}
{% endif %}
{{lang[0]}} Would output "Log in".
What are the best practises here?
I would imagine either being slower than the other as well, maybe Adobe have some input?

Hi Machinette,
Use your first option in my opinion:
A webapp where each item would contain a field for each language. i.e. item 1 name login; en -> Log in; es -> Iniciar sesion. item 2 name logout; en -> Log iout; es -> Cerrar sesion....
Here's an example of my multilingual web apps:
FAQs:
EN Question
JP Question
EN Answer
JP Answer
Testimonials:
Title-NZ
Title-JP
Quote-Preview-NZ
Quote-Preview-JP
Quote-Full-JP
How did you hear about us:
Title_En
Title_JP
Multilingual Text:
Text_En
Text JP
As you can see above, the items in the web apps form the different multilingual text - the different FAQs, the different Testimonials, the different Multilingual Text. The domain name needs to determine the language. Very important. And use a globals.site.countryCode to determine the language.
The key is when you want to reference that item. I think Abhishek was onto it using JSON files, easy to select the text you want. If JSON files don't work, here's what you do:
{module_webapps id="Multilingual Text" filter="i" itemId="4951580"}
{module_webapps id="Multilingual Text" filter="i" itemId="4951611"}
{module_webapps id="Multilingual Text" filter="i" itemId="4951612"}
Else place everything into a collection, but I have hundreds of items, so I don't want to collect too many records. Only the ones I need per page.
Finally, here's my code for one of the web apps, FAQs.
{% assign countrycode = globals.site.countryCode -%}
{% case countrycode -%}
{% when 'JP' -%}
<div class="faq-question">
    <h4>{{this['JP Question']}}</h4>
    <div class="faq-details">
        <div class="answer"><p>{{this['JP Answer']}}</p></div>
    </div>
</div>
{% else -%}
<div class="faq-question">
    <h4>{{this['EN Question']}}</h4>
    <div class="faq-details">
        <div class="answer"><p>{{this['EN Answer']}}</p></div>
    </div>
</div>
{% endcase -%}

Is jQuery the next big thing for APEX? If so, where do I start?

Hi Folks
I have been looking to get my APEX application to have a highly polished look and feel.
Having looked at different options, plug-ins etc. I get the impression that using the functionality of jQuery will really help me to acheive this.
What I want to know is...
Does the APEX community agree that it is worth investing time getting up to speed with jQuery?
What resources would you recommend for a jQuery newbie? (books preferrably as I'm old school like that)
Thanks in advance
Simon Gadd

Book to look at: [Learning jQuery 1.3 (Packt Publishing)|https://www.packtpub.com/learning-jquery-1.3/book] .
And also: [jQuery UI 1.7: The User Interface Library for jQuery (Packt Publishing)|https://www.packtpub.com/user-interface-library-for-jquery-ui-1-7/book] because APEX 4 is also using the jQuery UI libraries.

What's the "Line-in" thing for on my Zen Nano Pl

I have a Zen Nano Plus and I want to know what the "Line-in" thing is for and how do I use it's

It's for connecting a line-out level signal to for recording (this should be documented in the manual as well, although it isn't available for download at Nomadworld.com so I can't check).
A line-out level signal could be from an amplifier (e.g. a headphone socket, or even better a proper line-out level connection) or a pre-amped microphone. Be warned though, a lot of people are saying the line-in on this (and I think the predecessor MuVo N200) aren't very good.

Running a Mac G3, having been using a Laserwriter Select 360, but it and two others are now dead. What is the next best or better printer to use?

I am running a desktop beige Mac G3 and have been using a Laserwriter Select 360, but it an two others are now dead.
What is an equal or better printer to use with the Mac?

Hey, BD, I looked at Brothers last night in connection to this questiona and it looks like their newest/current laser print-only units go back to 10.4 but no further.
Brother is the best hope but the OP may need to look for an older model still in stock. For example, for our older Brother HL5250DN, they still show OS9 drivers:
http://welcome.solutions.brother.com/bsc/public/us/us/en/dlf/download_top.html?r eg=us&c=us&lang=en&prod=hl5250dn_all
Gary, web-check for stores that still have older models on teh shelf. You can also look at "newer-but-not-new" and then use the Brother site to check for OS9 drivers.
Founds some of my model on eBay:
http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_nkw=Brother+HL-5250DN
We paid US$199 for ours new about seven years ago. It's been a real workhorse and trouble-free. Well, except for the time my wife tried to feed it a odd paper stock that was not on the printer's official diet!
A Beige G3 consideration: The Big Beige doesn't come with USB ports. You must add a PCI USB adaptor card, and the ones that worked in the Beige are harder to find today.
However, the Beige has built-in ethernet so if you get a printer with an ethernet connector, you will be in bisiness with neither the expense of an extra adaptor card nor the occasional buttheadedness of USB printing. The "N" in our Brother model designates it as a network printer so it has an ethernet port. Many others do also.

What is the recommended 'Best Practice' for retaining object instances

I have a window that is constructed in Interface Builder such that the 'File Owner' points to an instance of one of my classes. In this particular case, the entire interaction is between the window and the class instance (which has a file opened to a serial device with a radio at the other end which is being controlled).
Thee are other components of the application that have no interest in what goes on between the window and my class instance.
I'm also using 'garbage collection' memory management.
I can create the class instance which creates the window from the XIB definition and this works well. My understanding of what is happening in the background is that the application is keeping a reference to the window which in turn is keeping the 'File Owner' reference to my class instance. As long as the window is open, my class instance is also kept alive.
Now to my question: Is it OK to rely on this mechanism to keep my class instance alive, or should I also be retaining a pointer to my class instance from some other part of my program myself?
Thanks
Susan

Aussie Susan wrote:
Thanks for this etresoft - I've always maintained my own pointers, but an 'accident' while I was debugging some code (where I didn't set my own pointer but the class instance still remained, I'm assuming because of this mechanism) got me thinking as to whether this was a mechanism that could be relied on.
If you do some research on exactly how you are doing those connections, it may be safe. For example, when you call "NSThread detachNewThreadSelector:toTarget:withObject:" with a target of self, you can immediately release self because the thread will retain the pointer to self. When the thread goes away, the object that spawned it will be released. This is very handy.
I only do this because the documentation explicitly says this is what happens. In your case, I'm not so sure because you are dealing with Interface Builder elements such as the Window class. I'm not entirely sure what happens with a "one shot" window. There are details and options in Interface Builder that could impact your pointer lifetimes. It is safe only if you do the research and prove to yourself it is safe.
I only mentioned the garbage collection aspect because I knew that the retain/release calls do nothing (thanks for the reminder Orangekay) and I've stopped using them in my code. However, I wanted to avoid the "your instance will stay around until you 'release' it" answer.
You might want to consider leaving them in. If you leave them in, then the same code can be used in a non-garbage collected environment.

What is the latest & best version for OS X 10.5.8 PPC-(NOT INTEL)?

The question is self explanatory.

Firefox 3.6.x is the last version of Firefox available from Mozilla for PPC Macs. <br />

For older Macs that aren't supported in Firefox 4+ versions, try TenFourFox for PowerPC's running Mac 10.4.11 & 10.5.8 . <br />
