Using ALEKS with Mac (math class review for college)

Hi. I'm taking a math review class for college, and it's online. They want me to do it through something called ALEKS. Has anyone used this before? I've paid for the class, and tried downloading what they wanted me to download, but I got this error message:
An error occurred during installation.
This installer is not allowed to write files in your Java Plug-in lib/ext directory.
When I clicked the error link, it said:
mework/Versions/1.5.0/Home/lib/ext/test.tmp (Permission denied)
Error #12: Error UseS_IP : 2, java.lang.Exception: sudo return 1
Error #13: Error UseS_P_IP : 0, java.lang.Exception: Password null
Info
I've sent email to my professor, and to the ALEKS company about it, and I'm sure they'll respond. I just wanted to try asking here, in case anyone had done this before and knew what to do.
Thanks.
Hope everyone had a good Easter/Spring Break/etc..

  • Using  the current version of photoshop CC with Mac OS 10.9 for the next 5 or so years on same mac?

    I am intending to upgrade to photoshop CC from photoshop CS6, my concern is is my computer is 6 years old and probably I will not be able to upgrade to a later mac operating system as I have mac os 10.9, and I may not be able to upgrade to a future version of photoshop, will I be able to use the current version of photoshop CC with Mac OS 10.9 for the next 5 or so years on same mac?, I know I can do this with Photoshop CS6.

    There's no reason why you can't do both.  You will always have CS6 to fall back on if the need should ever arise, the same as most of the regular posters here.  But you could enjoy CC for as long as it suited you, and it has some very features and more are coming all the time.
    We've seen two nice updates to Photoshop CC in the eight months since the subscription model went live.  (Have I got that right?)  So we can expect three a year or more, and there were some killer new features in 14.2.  Heck, it would already break my heart if I had to go back to CS6.  In another four years...   It ain't gonna happen.

    New to using Firefox with MAC: How does one save a single jpeg from the internet, similar to using the right mouse click on a pc?

    If your question comes about because you have a single button mouse, it's time to visit your local computer store and get a ''real'' mouse for that MAC. I don't "get" Apple, they sell their hardware for almost twice what a comparable PC would sell for - and then they leave out what is probably the most important time saving control, the right-button.

    I use lightroom with the soft proofing feature for my printing. I used to make a copy proof, but all of the sudden something changed, and even if I'm on the copy in the developing mode it prints the original. Also, If i chose a file that was already in light room to print, even though I have the chosen file up in the developing mode, it will instead print the most recent file that I added to lightroom. If found a way to work around these problems, (check make this the copy in the soft proofing, and copy my settings and delete and reload the old files) but it's a slight hassle and it didn't use to do this. Not sure why it changed. Could I have accidentally changed a setting?

  • How Do I Use Generics with Framework Extension Classes?

    Hi Guys and Gals,
    I've been writing alot of duplicate code lately for ViewObjects that are all basically the same. So it occurred to me that perhaps I could put shared code in a Framework Extension Class. My problem lies in the fact that I do quite a bit of class casting as well. I thought perhaps Generics could come to the rescue. But uh ... I don't really know anything about them, which makes asking the right questions or even researching difficult.
    Here's an example of what I would like to accomplish.
    I have many different Master-Detail ViewObjects which are all pretty much the same. For example ...
    PurchaseOrder (1-*) PoRows
    SalesOrder (1-*) SoRows
    Invoice (1-*) InvoiceRows
    etc...
    Here is sample code for the PurchaseOrder / PoRows
      public void cancelDocument()
        RowIterator ri = this.getPoRowsVO();  // access the detail view object
        RowSetIterator rsi = ((RowSet)ri).createRowSetIterator(null);
        while(rsi.hasNext())
          PoRowsVORowImpl next = (PoRowsVORowImpl)rsi.next();
          next.cancelRow();  // call a detail view object method exposed to the client
        rsi.closeRowSetIterator();
      }However, these two lines are cause for ponderance
         1.  RowIterator ri = this.getPoRowsVO();
         2.  PoRowsVORowImpl next = (PoRowsVORowImpl)rsi.next();Which leads me to two questions:
    1) How do I access the Detail part of the relationship in a framwork extension class generically?
    2) If I have to cast, is there a way to read the class type through reflection and cast using a generic method with what I've found?
    I would think writing common methods in a Framework Extension class would really help make maintaining my code easier, and I could see how it would be a powerful tool. But how would one get around these ViewObject specific problems?
    Will

    Hi,
    you are correct, Generics has a different meaning in Java then what you ask for.
    Actually to access a detail row set from a parent row, you can use code like this:
        public void voRowCancel(){
            for (int i = 0; i < this.getAttributeCount(); i++)
                   if(this.getStructureDef().getAttributeDef(i).getAttributeKind() == AttributeDef.ATTR_ASSOCIATED_ROWITERATOR){
                     RowSet rs = (RowSet) this.getAttribute(i);
                    // ... to do ...
        }However, the code you invoke is on a custom implementation class, which makes it difficult to get to this from here.

  • I installed 5 but now I can't use it with Mac osx - how do I go back to my old version?!

    I was prompted to install Firefox 5 on my Mac. Now when I try to open it says I can't use Firefox with osx. How do I go back to using the previous version - has it been written over? My previous version was fine!

    Firefox 4 requires at least OS X 10.5 and an Intel Mac. There is a third party version of Firefox 4 that runs on OS X 10.4/10.5 and PPC Macs, for details see http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox
    If you prefer, you can get the latest version of Firefox 3.6 from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
    Mozilla are working to prevent Mac users with non-compatible systems from getting the notification about Firefox 4, and also not displaying the "Download Firefox 4" button on http://www.mozilla.com

Searching the 9.2 doc set turns up a reference. Looks like you are trying to use an option that isn't available in your version of Oracle.

  • Cant use POP with mac mail from yahoo

    everytime i try and set up my POP account from yahoo into my mac mail, it says the server isnt responding. tried it weeks ago and now today. my trial of .macs expiring soon and i need to import my email onto my desktop. anyone know how to make it work???

    I'm having the same problem. Have been running Mac Mail for several months using POP with Yahoo without any issue at all. In just the last day though I haven't been receiving any inbound mail, but I can send outbound. I've called Yahoo and they say they don't support Mac Mail. They've tried to help, in fact found one setting at their end that was off, but they don't have the tools to troubleshoot Mac issues very well. I suspect it's a problem at Yahoo because I have two other non-Yahoo accounts that are coming in through Mac Mail just fine. So I'm going to call them back and see if they can find anything else.

  • Use iPod with Mac AND PC?

    Hello all!
    I use an iMac G5 at work and a PC (running Widows XP) at home. I plug my iPod in on both computers and everything seems to work just fine. Not too long ago, when I plugged my iPod in at work (Mac) I get the 'there's an update for your iPod' message. I might be paranoid, but I'm worried that if I start installing Mac updates, my iPod won't work on my PC. Am I just being crazy? I would say that my PC is 'home' for my iPod since I load most of my music, video, and photos from that computer. I'd be really bummed if anything went haywire & had a hard time using it with my PC.
    So - if that was a crazy notion I had......is there anything else I need to consider using my iPod with a Mac and a PC??
    Thanks to you all in advance!!

    Thanks, but i was just really looking if it was possible with Mac Messenger. I've tried aMSN in the past and it gave me a lot of problems so i don't want to go down that route again.
    It doesn't really matter if it isn't possible i just though it wouldn't hurt to ask.

  • Using Nano with Mac and PC - can I?

    I have an eMac and a Nano. Initially, I am using it with my Mac, but I will soon be using it in the office, which has a PC. Is it possible to use the same nano with iTunes on a PC, that I am currently using on my Mac.
    If I cannot use on both, can I at the very least use the PC to charge the nano when I am away from my Mac, which could be a week at a time...or do I need to get a wall adaptor.
    Sorry for the very basic questions, I have searched t he board but did not find the answer - so any help would bbe most appreciated!
    Thanking you in advance.

    If your iPod is formatted for OS X there is no way to convert the file system to Windows format (FAT32) without a complete format. All the data on the iPod (music, files, contacts, ect.) will be lost. But it is OK! You have all that stuff on your eMac. After you have formatted it with the newest iPod Updater for Windows, found at http://www.apple.com/ipod/download , you can go home an put all your music back on.
    Another good thing to remember is that whenever an update is available for the iPod you must update it on a Windows PC. For example, if I tried to updated my Windows formatted iPod on my Mac so that I could, for example, use the new Podcasting feature, the computer will try to format the iPod to the OS X file system. All iPod updates from now on must be made on a Windows PC. Hope this helps.
