Sorry, new thread on display buzz

I have a kind of different question about the display buzz that I think warrants a new thread. My MacBook Pro has it. Screen on full no buzz, screen off no buzz. Screen anywhere in between buzz. It really doesn't bother me. My question is, will it do the computer any harm. I.e. is this a sign that it is going to stop working at some point or is it just a pain in the butt that I'll deal with? Thanks in advance.

Michael,
I agree with erkthetech, however, please realize that none of us can speak for Apple on this or any other issue. As he mentions, I would call tech support, and while most of us cannot do without our notebooks for any length of time, I don't think I would wait on anything that seems to need repair.
My two cents....
Bob

How to create a new thread in display function -----Java OpenGL

use netbean 6.1 to do this work.
public void display(GLAutoDrawable drawable) {
      GL gl = drawable.getGL();
      //I want to create a new thread here to draw an object
      Thread dt = new Thread(new DrawThread(gl,2),"Thread0");    //create a thread,DrawThread is a class I define
      //but it failed when compiling
      //are there any other ways or how to improve my method?
}I want to do like this because I do not like to block the main thread when it is drawing an object

Well, the autocode in your application is maintained by your autocode module, any attempt at changing it will result in having it reset back to the original autocode--that's one of the gotcha's about using autocode.
Since it looks like you may not have the skills to do what you are asking and relying on the autocoder, you should probably start here:

And stay there until you are comfortable coding for yourself.

How can I get rid of a small "thread" in the lower right corner of my new 27" Cinema Display?

I recently acquired a new 27" Cinema display. Yesterday I noticed a small thread like piece of debris under the glass on the lower right side of the display. Any suggestions as to how I can get rid of it? Take it to the Apple Store? Return it for a replacement (which might have the same issue).

How can I use the same thread to display time in both JPanel & status bar

Hi everyone!
I'd like to ask for some assistance regarding the use of threads. I currently have an application that displays the current time, date & day on three separate JLabels on a JPanel by means of a thread class that I created and it's working fine.
I wonder how would I be able to use the same thread in displaying the current time, date & day in the status bar of my JFrame. I'd like to be able to display the date & time in the JPanel and JFrame synchronously. I am developing my application in Netbeans 4.1 so I was able to add a status bar in just a few clicks and codes.
I hope somebody would be able to help me on this one. A simple sample code would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance!

As you're using Swing, using threads directly just for this kind of purpose would be silly. You might as well use javax.swing.Timer, which has done a lot of the work for you already.
You would do it something like this...
    ActionListener timerUpdater = new ActionListener() {
        public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent evt) {
            // DateFormat would be better, but this is an example.
            String timeString = new Date().toString();
            statusBar.setText(timeString);
            someOtherLabel.setText(timeString);
    new Timer(1000, timerUpdater).start();That code will update the time once a second. If you aren't going to display seconds, you might as well increase the delay.
The advantage of using a timer over using an explicit thread, is that multiple Swing timers will share a single thread. This way you don't blow out your thread count. :-)

Paint JProgressBar in new Thread

Hi,
I have a DnD Applet for managing your computer(files and folders) at work from home and have a problem with painting a JProgressBar during the drop action. I've tried to paint the JProgressBar in a new Thread but it freezes. I can see the progressbar but it doesn't move.
I can't do the other things that I wan't to do in drop in a new Thread because of other circumstances so I have to paint the progressbar in a separate thread. Why doesn't the progressbar move?
Any ideas?
public void drop(final DropTargetDropEvent dtde) {
setCursor(new Cursor(Cursor.WAIT_CURSOR));
Thread t = new Thread() {
public void run() {
paintThread(); // THIS IS WHERE I PAINT THE PROGRESSBAR
t.start();
// HERE FOLLOWS THE OTHER THINGS I WANT TO DO IN DROP...
Isn't threads supposed to work side by side?

What you're trying to do is making a myThread method that extends Thread. It's not possible to make a method inherit from anything.
You can't make a class with void either, a class doesn't return anything. You have mixed a class declaration and a method declaration. It doesn't make any sense at all...sorry!
And I don't think you have got the idea with synchronized and what that means...

Does JDialog setVisible create a new threaD?

I am having a problem with my program and it seems that it may be because my call to JDialog setVisible is creating a new thread. In my program I have a JDialog which is a creation wizard that puts some specific files in the specified directory. After this is done I try and zip up the contents and bundle the zip file with some other files. My problem is that if I don't place a dialog after my call JDialog setVisible() then not all the right files will be in the newly created zip. It seems to me this is likely happening because the call to setVisible is creating a new thread and operation is continuing before the wizard is done placing all the right files in the directory. Does this make sense? Does setVisible create its own thread?

In the future Swing related questions should be posted in the Swing forum.
No a new thread is not created. setVisible() displays the dialog. If the dialog is modal then statements after the setVisibile are not executed until the dialog is closed. If the dialog is not modal, then the statements execute right away.

Message before posting new thread

How about displaying a message before posting new threads in abap devlopment forums which tells the members to use search button before posting new threads.
I think this may improve the quality of forums to an extent.
Plz give ur comment on this.

I think most people who answer simple questions do so because they are genuinely trying to help and are perhaps not familiar with the type of user IDs who ask such questions.
But they should heed the warnings (in most cases they realize this themselves before a warning is required). I also know a numer of people who stop visiting SDN when they realize this, and that is a big pity.
Users who carry on and on and on without heeding the warnings are deleted as well. This has happened already and there are two more in the pipeline. But Guestification is a last resort and not a perfect one either. It is only really effective when points are the reason for the misuse.
I am sure that without a points system in its current form we would have less noise, but we would only eliminate the childish points gamers.
What I think we need to work on is further improving the reputation of the SDN forums for quality content.
Eg. when someone posts something which is incorrect or questionable, then question it (politely as possible / appropriate).
That way people who answer will realize that their accounts have a track record for questionable quality, and will think twice before posting some bla-bla-bla or not reading the question carefully => if the question is "What is reports and tables" then when thinking twice, they wont answer at all....
Cheers,
Julius
PS: I will start drafting a sticky thread for FAQs and memorable discussions, and then we can make a team effort of contributing to it and the mods can update it as appropriate.

CRM PCUI (Imp): Adding new fields & Webpage display in ODC1

Hi Gurus,
Plz help in these PCUI related configurations:
Query 1.
PCUI: Adding custom created field in a new TAB (BSP Iview)
Steps Done
a. Custom field defined in an object (say Opportunity)
b. An event created.
c. A Group Tab Page created
d. A Field group created and a new field name added to the field group (What structure need to be added to this field group?)
e. Entry made in Application Layout for an application i.e. event / position / screen element / tab page / structure. (Again what structure to be added?)
To handle this new field & tab, plz advice
1. What needs to be entered in the screen structure? Do we need to create this structure?
2. The required the model access class defined for the screen structure.
3. Any changes required in the controllers
(Where is the linking between custom field defined in the opportunity object and the new field entry made in the filed group)
Query 2.
Calling a webpage in a tab (ODC1, Detail area)
Opening a webpage in an iview can be done easily by reating a URL iview.
If the requirement is to open a web page in ODC1, than what are the steps required for the same?
e.g. On clicking a user defined tab the webpage should open in the detail area 1.
Query 3.
We have extended an object (say field addition in opportunity header) through EEWB
Will the added filed be available in PCUI screen also?
Regards,
SAURABH

How to let new thread to access EJB

I start new thread in Servlet class and I want this thread to call EJB business method but I get following error:
javax.naming.NameNotFoundException: Name comp/env/ejb not found in context "java:"
Probablly because thread has no credentials and so on. I know this concept violates J2EE specs but I don't know how to make timer to call business mathod every N minutes (I use J2EE 1.3 so I can't use Tiemr EJB).
I suspect that this new thread has no credentials and no role. What happens if I set run-as some role in servlet? As I saw new thread still has no credentials and role.
Can anyone suggest me how can I set credentials to new thread so it can call EJB business method or how to implement timer service in J2EE 1.3.

I start new thread in Servlet class and I want this
thread to call EJB business method but I get
following error:

Can anyone suggest me how can I set credentials to
new thread I guess it's server specific.
so it can call EJB business method or how
to implement timer service in J2EE 1.3.Don't use EJB reference. Lookup EJB by it's global JNDI name.

Face time fades out and then tries to reconnect on new ipad retina display on WiFi. Iphone 4s has no problem with face time from exact same location and same contact. WiFi signal strong on both devices. What gives?

Face time fades out and then retries to connect (new Ipad Retina Display) on WiFi. Iphone 4s has no problem with face time from same location and same contact. What gives?

Is the router to small?
Not necessarily, if you are using Facetime all the data goes through your WiFi router, your cable/DSL modem, your ISP and the internet to Apple's Facetime servers and then, in reverse, down to the Facetime recipient. If your ISP connection is too slow or there is excessive traffic on the internet you can have Facetime problems.
Most WiFi routers can handle this unless others in the house are also using WiFi at the same time. The problem may be your ISP connection or congestion on the internet, etc.

As Requested New Thread DSL low speeds and drop outs ref: Anthorny Verizon.

Please see post by Jerrold concerning the form for information requested, I have never been able to fill this out. Note also I had to sign in three times just to access your private letter to me today.
Here is a summary of problem:
When my line was first installed line speed was always between 9 to 12 Mps, which is fine for a 15 Mps line, sometimes would even go higher, so line was ok.
In October 2012 my line speed dropped to about 5 to 7 Mps, I contacted support and repairs were attemped, but did not correct the problem in fact problem became worst. My line speed dropped to about 2 to 3 Mps.
Now from October to end of November, all repairs did not correct problem. I was told by chat tech support that the problem was being worked on and there was an open ticket.
In December my line speed returned to normal speed was between 9 to about 13 Mps. No one had contacted me about this so I again contacted chat tech support who said my line had been fixed and there were no open tickets so have a nice day. I accepted this at face value and accepted that my line was now ok.
In January 2013, My line speed dropped again to 2 to 3 Mps. I contacted chat tech support who tested line and put in a repair request. No one had responded back to me and a week later my line started to drop in and out losing the connection completely. I again contacted tech support who told me they had no open tickets on my account, they tested line and while we were talking on voice connection my phone started to have heavy static, both my DSL and Phone dropped out at that point. Tech support called me back and said he was putting a repair request and that my line had problems. That night Tuesday January 29 my Phone and DSL both died, no dial tone on phone and DSL showed only power light on. Contacted tech support by a friends cell phone and informed them of this, was told ok it would be fixed by open ticket for next day.
Repair was to be made on Wednesday January 30, no one showed up, called tech support and told repair would be made on Thursday. Thursday late repair person showed up around 4:30 or 5:00pm, landlord gave access to building. I did not know they were here at all, when he told me( my landlord) I tested my DSL and found it running at 1.7 Mps or below that. When I attempted to call tech support found my phone was still dead, no dial tone at all. Contacted chat tech support who told me ticket was still open and would be fixed by Friday, or Monday.
On Monday, phone still dead, DSL running at 1.7 Mps contacted chat support who had me take a phone to the junction box outside of building, plugged in two phones to this no dial tone at junction box (both phones work ok checked using a neighbors phone jack) should note that on the outside of building there are two junction boxes, but one has lock on it so could not use that one. Anyway told that DSL could not be fixed until phone is repaired. Tried contacting phone repair and all I get is auto wait then line drops using a neighbors phone and pay phone my is dead.
Tuesday again contacted chat support now told to bad, until phone is fixed cannot help me ( was'nt that suppose to be done in first repair, fix phone and DSL given both were reported dead).
So why am I upset well look at history I now sit with No Phone service, DSL running way below what I pay for and a tech support who has said to bad not our problem. I also do not want to hear that my line does not and cannot support the speed I pay for ( it has shown to support that speed at beginning of install up to October and again in December).
Well anyway your letter did not say where to start new thread should I do that here, or in open forum?
Oh, auto phone repair has given me a date for phone service as this Friday, I hope that at least gets done I cannot contact them any other way it seems.
You may also ref: my thread on ping rates over 600 on long distants calls for any other history, but as per your request here is new thread. Please note as of today I have No Phone so can only be contacted by email or here. Untill phone is repaired that's all there is.

How do I get my new 27" Thunderbolt Display to work with my mid-2010 Macbook Pro?

How do I get my new 27" Thunderbolt Display to work with my mid-2010 Macbook Pro? Or am I SOL?
Hardware Overview:
Model Name:    MacBook Pro
Model Identifier:    MacBookPro6,1
Processor Name:    Intel Core i7
Processor Speed:    2.8 GHz
Number of Processors:    1
Total Number of Cores:    2
L2 Cache (per Core):    256 KB
L3 Cache:    4 MB
Memory:    8 GB
Processor Interconnect Speed:    4.8 GT/s
Boot ROM Version:    MBP61.0057.B0F
SMC Version (system):    1.57f18

You can't. Theoretically, Thunderbolt devices that only transfer video and audio should work with Mini DisplayPort MacBooks like yours, but it's not the case of the Thunderbolt Display. Its firmware doesn't allow it to be used with non-Thunderbolt Macs, so you can't use the Thunderbolt Display with the Mid 2010 MacBook Pro.
Instead, you have to look for another screen, or you can get an adapter and connect the MacBook Pro to a TV

I am trying to have some LabVIEW code called in a New thread exit when the testStand sequence terminates

I have a Sequence that launches a sequence in a New Thread that happens to launch some LabVIEW code. The problem is when the LabVIEW code finishes, it will not close even when the TestStand sequence terminates. Is there a way to tell this LabVIEW code to Exit, I've tried the Quit LabVIEW function, but that causes a C++ RunTime Error. The LabVIEW code does end though, and it is set in the VI properties to:
Checked - Show Front Panel When Called
Checked - Close Afterwardds if originally closed
The sequence call that the LabVIEW code is launched from has the following options:
- New Thread
Unchecked - Automatically wait for the thread to complete at the end of the current sequence
Unchecked - Initially Suspended
Unchecked - Use single threaded apartment
Any clues on this would be appreciated.

Hi ADL,
Everything should close correctly if you check the checkbox "Automatically wait for the thread to complete at the end of the current sequence" in the thread settings.
With it unchecked, I am seeing the behavior you are.

I group messaged from my ipad and this has screwed up the way my messages are reveived by my friends (it creates new threads in their phones with my email in place of my contact name) I've stopped messaging from my ipad but the problem remains. Any help?

I have an iPhone 4S and use the group texting feature ALL THE TIME. I recently updated my iPad to the latest software and made the colossal mistake of continuing my group messaging from my iPad while connected to wifi. Doing this has successfully screwed but every group text thread I am in, to the point where its very hard for those involved in the thread to keep up. When I initially messaged those I was already engaged in text threads with it created a new thread in their phones replacing my name in their phones with my email. At first this was not a big deal but ever since then the people I am messaging have become increasingly frustrated with how my messages come through. If I am messaged in a group text and respond to it, sometimes when I respond it will create an entirely different thread in my recipients phones. So at that point they have to switch threads in order to read what I wrote. The new thread that my phone creates will send the message under my email not my name (related to the contact they have me saved as in their phones). The worst part about it is that there seems to be no rhyme or reason to why or when my phone will send the message as normal or under my email like it did with my iPad. I haven’t messaged from my iPad since these problems immediately began a month ago but the issues still continue. I have tried everything to get this to stop, I’ve turned off my wifi, I’ve had my friends delete the threads that my messages create in their phones. I’ve had them delete my email in their contact lists and nothing has worked. Can you help me? Any info you could provide would be greatly appreciated.
Note: My phone message no different whatsoever. All the threads have remained the same. The issue is what it is doing to the people that I am messaging.
Best Regards

I have this identical problem. For a while my group texts didnt show up on my ipad. Then one day they did, maybe everyone in the group started using the same os version or something. Ever since my first reply to the group there have been complaints of multiple threads. I can not find a pattern for when my group text's decide they want to create a new thread. (it doesnt happen every time) Everyone in the group has deleted the thread, we've all toggled imessage on/off etc. There still hasn't been a solution.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
