Symbol question

What does the symbol ~     stand for ?
I asked where a folder would be located and was told it would be in       ~/desktop.
i have no idea what   ~   represents.

Your "Home" directory.
Or Finder -> Go -> Home
Or Finder -> Command-Shift-H
Or
$HOME
Or
/Users/yourShortUserName
If you have multiple users on the system, then you can specify the home directory of another user using
ls ~theirShortUserName/

Battery Symbols Question

Hey guys I'm using an external charger case on my iPhone 4. So my question... What's the difference between the lightning bolt and plug symbol? Thought i would ask you guys cause I'm not sure. Thanks

So if my battery is slowly draining (% symbol) going down and I have the plug symbol showing... Does that mean I have a defective charging case?

Chord symbol question

Hi,
I often make simple Lead Sheets with the song's melody, lyrics, chords and maybe some repeat symbols.. Nice and easy in Logic.
What I don't like is that if I have a chord like G/F, the letter F is placed lower than the letter G. It does accentuate that the "right hand chord" is G and the bass note an F, but it takes much more room on the staff, and I find it a bit messy next to the "normal chords".
Is there any option that I can choose to have the letters these chords on the same height??? I have been searching the manual and the menus, but no luck so far.
Thanks!!
Regards,
Jaap

thanks - I hadnt thought of the resize tool... it does not seem to work on chord symbols but useful of course for other objects. Click and dragging with the size tool shows the scale change from + to - 16 but no change occurs in the size. Best workaround as been to fiddle with the chord and root font size...

Quick Symbol Question

I saw a portion of code just now and i cant seems to identify a symbol in that code
w = w << FIXED_POINT_SHIFT;
if(x > w - EDGE_REPEL_DISTANCE) {
vx -= (( x - (w - EDGE_REPEL_DISTANCE)) * EDGE_REPEL_FACTOR)
>> FIXED_POINT_SHIFT;
}what does << and >> do?
unclear
kelkel

during what scenario will we use << and >> shift operators?
whats the purpose of using these operators?
extracted:
13 >> 1;
The binary representation of the number 13 is 1101. The result of the shift operation is 1101 shifted to the right by one position-110, or 6 in decimal. The left-hand bits are filled with 0s as needed.
does it mean that when i do
13 >> 2;
the result will be -11?

A cannot resolve symbol question

I have this code: CurrencyTable is just a class extended from JTable and has only one constructor with string parameter. So I get one error for each those lines:
euro = new CurrencyTable("euro");
dollar = new CurrencyTable("dollar");
chf = new CurrencyTable("chf");
Could you explain me why I can't declare my variables like this ? Thanks
import javax.swing.*;
public class YearPane extends JTabbedPane{
private String name;
private int index;
private CurrencyTable euro;
private CurrencyTable dollar;
private CurrencyTable chf;
private GraphicPanel gpanel;
public YearPane(String aname, int anindex) {
name = aname;
index = anindex;
euro = new CurrencyTable("euro");
dollar = new CurrencyTable("dollar");
chf = new CurrencyTable("chf");
gpanel = new GraphicPanel();
}

In fact I don't use the package instructions... Here are the errors:
Chargement/YearPane.java [28:1] cannot resolve symbol

Some symbol questions

I'm working with symbols for the first time (amateur here), and I'm confused about a couple of things.
I've created some symbols and saved them into a user defined library under 'some name'. Then I open a file in which I'd like to use those symbols. But when I open the symbol library user defined library, my 'some name' symbol library isn't there. Is there any way I can continue to access my symbol library without having to shut down and reopen Illustrator?
I'm developing a slight tremor in my hand. So when I want to spray one instance, i often get two or three. Is there any way I can control the number of instances sprayed at onece? ( I only have a mouse, not a graphics tablet.)
I'm running CS6 on a 64-bit Dell PC.

Use the command to open "other library" (it can be found in several places)
There you can navigate to any AI document to open its symbols as a library

Operating symbol question...

String s= Integer.toString((pixel & 0x00FF0000) >> 16)
What does (pixel & 0x00ff0000) mean? Thx!!

String s= Integer.toString((pixel & 0x00FF0000) >>
16)
What does (pixel & 0x00ff0000) mean? Thx!!
pixel is most likely a defined long value, which is then logically combined with the octal number equal to 1111 1111 0000 0000 0000 0000.
the & means that if pixel be something like 1010 and the other term being something like 1001 that both are combined to :
1010
1001 &
1000
Then the entire term is shifted by 16 positions to the right, thus making the long to an int, and then the value of the int is put into the String s.
Hope that helped

Key down to play symbol question

I am trying to move a character when they have a button being pressed. This works but the issue I am having is that it does not loop for me. As soon as that cycle is done it stops dead.
Here is my code on creation complete
var myChar = sym.getSymbol("character");
$(document).keydown(function(e){
          if (e.keyCode == 37) {
                         myChar.play("running");
                         return false;
and then at the end of the running cycle I have this
sym.play('running');
This works well when I press and release the button but if I hold down left key it stops at the end of the animation.

ald if you wanna have your animation keep repeat add this before return false;
if ( x > y)
x = 0; //return to the first position in your animate, could be any value in your project for your specific animation
y should be your end timeline in milisec
for examle if your animation will finish at 153264
if ( x > 153264)
x = 0;

Chord Symbols: 3 Display Questions

Been using Logic for a while now (first with Express 7.2; then Logic Studio since its debut) -- though would still label myself a novice. Am hoping some of the pros here can help clarify a couple of points re the display of Chord Symbols:
Question 1):
I was happy to recently discover that unlike both the Transport window and the little box in the top right of the Piano Roll, the Chord option within Global Tracks does show the inversions -- “F/C” as opposed to simply “F” for example.
is there any way to set the Transport window, the Piano Roll, etc. to do the same?
Question 2):
Other than simply repositioning those blue chord symbols which appear in the Score window (after selecting the Insert Chords function), or editing them by double-clicking on them, are there any cleverly-hidden formatting options as well: font, font size, making the bottom letter smaller than the root letter, etc? Or has that kind of window-dressing not yet been built in?
Question 3):
If I change the actual notes of a chord (say by dragging some of them up or down in the Piano Roll), and if the chords in that region have already been analyzed, is there a way to “re-analzye” just that one chord, or just the one region of which it’s a part, without everything going wonky?
By wonky, I mean that when I’ve tried to do this, many of the other chord symbols suddenly change, some go out of alignment with the measure to which they belong, and chords from other regions disappear altogether. And in the Edit Menu it talks about how I’ve just Inserted a Transposition Change, even though the region I had selected contained no transpositions whatsoever. (And the same thing seems to happen regardless of whether the “Change Display Only” option is checked or not.)
So I simply Undo, and then manually enter the correct new chord name. But I’m guessing the above paragraph reflects some basic misunderstanding I must have about how the Analzye function is supposed to work. So if anyone could set me straight (or point me in the right RTFM direction) on that point, I’d be grateful.
Thanks,

Well, no takers after two weeks, but at least I can now answer one of the above questions myself for the benefit of anyone searching this topic.
Re Question 2, yes you CAN format the chord symbols imported onto a Score Editor page. Just click on the small Text button near the top of the Score window, and from the drop down list which appears choose "Text Styles...". That gives you a window with a list of a dozen or so elements (two of which are "Chord Root" and "Chord Ext."). Double-Clicking in the column to the right of any of those elements in turn opens a standard Font window which lets you format away -- it even offers options for that particular element to be boxed or circled. Only restriction is it looks like any changes you make are global to that Project for that particular element, which is what you'd want (for the sake of visual consistency) 99% of the time anyway.
Only follow-up question would be: is there any way to make any of those text formatting changes the default for all future projects when accessing the Score Editor?
Meantime, would still like to hear from anyone with thoughts on Question 1 (getting the Transport window to display chords with their inversions, a la the Global Tracks display) and/or Question 3 (is there a clean way to re-Analyze a region in which you may have changed some of the chords -- or is that just an unpredictably "buggy" area still to be avoided?)
Thanks in advance for any thoughts.

Cisco Prime LMS 4.1 - Support for Cisco Catalyst 3560-C Series Switches

Hello together
I have a customer which uses the following switch. Last year I have installed LMS 4.1 for him to manage the switches. Unfortunatly the switch model is not supported. According to the information found on the following site the switch is supported for most of the modules in LMS:
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/net_mgmt/ciscoworks_lan_management_solution/4.1/device_support/table/lms41sdt.html
The oid object of the device is the following: 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.1.1465
Supported Software: 12.2(55)EX (Customer has 12.2(55)EX3
Version Support Type: Device Update
So I updated all device updates I was able to find.
Step 1: For that I went to Admin > System > Software Center > Schedule Device Downloads and created a job where I have downloaded the latest versions of all packages.
Step 2: Installed the downloaded packages Admin > System > Software Center > Device Update and installed all the packages.
Unfortunatly I don't see the same result like described in the Supported Device Table for LMS 4.1.
- Cisco View -> works
- Inventory and Config Collection -> works
- Fault Monitor not working -> Error Code Unsupported
- Network Topology Layer 2 Services -> Device Type ciscoProducts.1465, Symbol Question Mark
- VLAN Management -> Doesn't work
- User Tracking > seems also not to work
When I open the report for supported devcies (Reports > System > Device Support) and search for C3560C... I find the following devices, but not mine which i need:
C3560C-8PC-S     .1.3.6.1.4.1.9.1.1466
C3560CG8PC         .1.3.6.1.4.1.9.1.1317
C3560CCG8TC     .1.3.6.1.4.1.9.1.1318
wsC3560CPD8ptS     .1.3.6.1.4.1.9.1.1368
Does anybody have experience with the same switch type / model? Am I doing something wrong or is this type of switch not implemented correctly till now? Further the docuemntation supported devices would be wrong.
Thanks for any feedback Erich

Thanks but I just heard back from my Cisco SE and he assures me that an AP will NOT use up a license.
I've asked him to verify his answer for me.
Is your answer based on real world expereince (the best there is)? That is, are you running Prime LMS 4.1 and does it indeed use up a license for each light-weight AP it discovers & manages?
Thanks for mentioning options 1-3 but I do not wish to employ any of them. I don't mind buying the additional licenses for APs ... I just need to know if I have to or not.
Ian.

A question viewing certifcate information via the padlock symbol in IE 11 (works on Chrome brower)

Hello All
Can someone please help me with the following questions,
J
1:
I have a CA whose CA certificate has an Issuance (aka certificate) Policy.
Next I created a CSR for a WEBServer certificate, I created the CSR by first creating a .inf (request file) containing the usual including the following
[RequestAttributes]
CertificateTemplate=WebServer
OID=1.3.6.1.5.5.7.3.1
IssuancePolicy="My Certificate Policy"
OID=1.3.6.1.4.145389.1.1.1
Turned the above into a CSR (base64 encoded) then submitted and retrieved the relevant certificate from the CA
If I open the certificate flat file the resultant certificate has the relevant Issuance Policy listed under the section
‘This certificate is intended for the following purposes’
So all good so far
Next I install the certificate to the WEB Site and bind it etc. When I go the WEB Site e.g.
Https://TestSite the certificate works and the traffic is encrypted etc… e.g. click on the padlock in Internet Explorer provides the expected information, but when I click on View Certificate via this padlock symbol; in Internet
Explorer the certificate come up OK but under
‘This certificate is intended for the following purposes’
It does not show my issuance policy e.g. just the standard application policy for a WEBServer cert.
If I then look under the details/extensions tab of the certificate it does show certificate policy under the certificate policies extension, so looks OK from the extensions tab, but policy does not show up under ‘This certificate is intended for the following
purposes’ when certificate is viewed via padlock on IE but does show up if I open the certificate flat file (either original certificate file or copy to file then view certificate as a flat file).
The OID for the policy is registered in both active directory and local OID databases.
So the question is why do I not see the issuance policy when viewing cert via padlock in IE but does when viewing flat file.
I am using IE 11.x
When doing the same thing from Chrome browser the certificate policy does show up OK, therefore is this a possible bug with IE 11.x
Thanks All

Hello Brian
Thanks for the reply,
The OID is in the Issuing CA Certificate (online CA) e.g. was part of the CAPolicy.inf file when installing the Issuing CA. The OffLine Root and OffLine Policy CA have the All Issuance Policy set in their CA Certificates.
briefly as mentioned above when opening the cert (.cer) as a flat file by double clicking on it you can see the Issuance Policy listed as expected. When viewing the same cert via Internet Explorer (v11.x) PadLock > View Certificate it shows the Application
Policy, but not the Issuance Policy (e.g. in the general tab) but does show the Issuance Policy under Extensions Tab. If I use Chrome, click on the PadLock > View Certificate it does show the Issuance Policy (as it always does when opening the flat
file).
Therefore was kind of wondering if a Bug in IE, when doing a CertUtil -f -urlfetch -verify Cert.Cer it passed all tests and shows it was validated against the Issuance Policy OK, therefore perhaps bug in IE
No big deal, just wanted to know if any one else saw this or was another explanation
Thank you

Every once in a while when I open my mail or a page I get nothing but strange lines of symbols. Many of the symbols are black triangles with question marks in the center. I completely reset it like new, but problem still exists

Every once in a while when I open my mail or open a page I get lines of strange symbols like black triangles with question marks in the center. I have reset the ipad2 to new condition but the problem still exists.

A reset does not make tthe iPad "like new."
First, let's ensure that we agree on just what is a Reset...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod. As before, say "yes." Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time. If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device. Corrective action is simple - choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.

OK. I have a copyright question. Do I have to put a copyright symbol on each of my photos to protect them from being stolen ? I'm referring to photos of paintings here. What is to stop readers of the iBook from using the photos?

Ok, I have a question concerning copright. Do I have to put a copyright symbol on every image I use- I'm refering to photos of paintings here. What is to stop readers of the ibook from using my images? They are all my own photos.

You do not HAVE to put a © symbol on each photo. If you own the photos, you hold the copyright. However, nothing stops a viewer from downloading the photo and using it without your permission.
To protect yourself there are alternatives: put a ©2013 by ME in the description of each photo. Always add your copyright notice to the metadata in every photo.
I once had several of my photos taken off the internet and then used in a commercial catalog without my permission. I was outraged, the catalog company was naive, and in the end I received $100 compensation and an apology. - Fabini

I'm using a macbook pro, running snow leopard. Yesterday I got around to emptying my trash for the first time in quite awhile and was surprised by how much there seemed to be in there. Immediately after a question mark symbols appeared on all my hard disk

I'm using a macbook pro, running snow leopard. Yesterday I got around to emptying my trash for the first time in quite awhile and was surprised by how much there seemed to be in there. Immediately after a question mark symbol appeared on all my hard disk folders. If I click on these question marks I get a message saying ' the item can't be found'.

Not sure where these hard disk folders are located that you are referring to? Finder, Finder tool bar, Finder side bar, Desktop, Dock?
More then likely they are an alias that not longer point to the orginals, thus the question mark.
I would reboot. Delete icons if an alias and just recreate by dragging from the source. Try right click (control) click to remove.
