Website on different platforms

How do you ensure consistency between different platforms
(mac vs. p.c.)? Our web site was created on a Mac using Safari as
our primary web browser and recently have been receiving phone
calls from "potential clients" stating they could not view the
website from their P.C.'s. Originally we thought it might have
something to do with our webhoster; however, we received
confirmation that all connections were working properly from their
end (webhosting company).
Is there a workaround for this, it is very important for our
marketing purposes and crucial that these "potential clients" are
not steered away due to a website technicality.
Thank you all for your help,

A website whose pages validate will likely look the same on
all platforms.
It may not look like what you intended, but it'll probably
look the same.
Do your pages validate?

Why does Muse website look different Mac vs. PC

Why do adobe muse websites look different on a Mac vs. PC? www.915day.com for example. Looks great on my mac, but when you go to the PC version it looks zoomed in at least 25-35%? Why? (I have thus adjusted it to look good on a PC.) Frustratingly, to center the Logo for one platform, means to put it off center on the other. Defeats the whole purpose of Parallax scrolling. Also, who would pay so much a month to the creative cloud if they can't even offer their clients continuity? I understand there is a difference between older browsers and new, but it tests the same way even on a new browser (Windows 8 browsers). I have tried adjusting the canvas to the exact measurements of the screen on my PC but it renders the same. Also I have turned on the HiDPI just to see if that was the case. Still no fix. There is only one instance of this in the forums and it has still gone unanswered. So I am asking in greater detail why this is an issue.
Anyone?

I tried to check the site display in multiple browsers on both Mac and windows , but I was not able to verify the issue.
I believe you have already resolved the issue.
Thanks,
Sanjit

How difficult is it to update a website with mobile platforms as well as desktop?

I just updated my Adobe CC for Photographers to the full version of CC mostly to get Muse. I thought it was fully adaptable to mobile devices. Now I'm finding out that that isn't necessarily true. Is it true I have to run three different platforms to have the mobile comparability? If this is true will I have to update all three every time I change or add to my website? How difficult is it to do this?
Also, I read somewhere that if it isn't hosted at Adobe some of the add-ons like forms and blogs may not work. Is this correct?
Thanks for any help,
Linda

Multi-platform support depends on what templates/ themes you use and their associated CSS and widgets. Not everything works everywhere and that's something you have to live with, was e.g. support for JavaScript on mobile devices is generally a pain in the rear parts. Otherwise you get what you pay for - if you need more forms or other features, you have to move on from your limited options included in MU and look around. Though I really don't see the issue. You can have anything from blogs to forums for free these days, you may just have to live with the fact that then you wouldn't use Muse at all to manage them and add content.

AP Divs (layers) move when I open my website on different window size.

First of all, this is my first time trying to make a website.
I'm doing an assignment for my class and i found it difficult for me to fix. I have spend 4-5 hours researching online but nothing work for me.
Well,the problem is the AP Divs (layers) move when I open my website on different window size(iphone,ipad).
The website only look right on 1366 x 786 resolution. Please take a look at my 2 pics below:
And I don't know how to make the website to fit on the iphone and ipad so that I don't have to scroll down or sroll to the right to view the whole thing.
Please someone help me!

That's what APDivs do. This is the single most common problem new people have with web page layouts. DO NOT use positioning. You don't need it. Start over. Learn to use CSS floats, margins and padding to align elements.

Urgent! Application tier and Data tier on different platforms

Hello!
I would be very grateful if someone confirms that the deployment of the Beehive, where Application tier and Data tier are placed on different platforms, is supported.
For example, Oracle Database (Data tier) on Linux, and Oracle Application Server (Application tier) on Windows.
Thanks in advance.
Dima.

Hi Dima,
Yes, this will work.

Building and Deploying Java applications in different platform (OS)

Hi all,
We currently have a J2EE based web services application that is built (compiled) and deployed on Windows 2000 Advanced server. But in future, we will be using WIndows 2000 server for development only and HP-UX for production.
So, we are planning on executing the build (compilation) of our application on Windows 2000 server and deploy the same binaries (WAR) on HP-UX also. So, I wanted to know anyone has faced issues in the past by deploying an application on a different platform than the one on which it was compiled. Is it recommended by SUN to compile and build Java applications on the same platform on which the application is deployed.
Note that in my case, the JVM versions between Windows server and HP-UX would be the same. But the JVM for Windows server has been provided by Sun and the JVM for HP-UX has been provided by HP-UX.
Your inputs are greatly appreciated.

Well, it's all Java, right? So what's the problem? Since the JVM for HP-UX isn't made by Sun, so there could be compatibility problems, but I would expect that would be minimal if a problem at all. But you can't know unless you run it.
I don't know about building on the different systems. Java's supposed to be write once, run anywhere.... The byte code should be compatible no matter what. I've never heard of Sun saying "compile it on each platform". If the HP JVM isn't going to like bytecode compiled on Windows or another OS, then something isn't kosher with someone's JVM or compiler.

Adobe Pro on 2 different platforms?

Why is it not possible to install Adobe Pro on 2 different platforms? It allows me to install on 2 computers but not 2 platforms? I'm having issues understanding why I'm not allowed to install on 2 computers regardless of the platform.

It's an issue because they chose to do it that way, and sell serial numbers which work on Windows, or Mac. They make the rules. You won't find Adobe here defending or commenting on their policies.
Allowing two computers is more generous than some companies.
I've heard it said that, if you subscribe instead, because you don't get a serial number, you can have one Windows and one Mac.

How to apply metrics for different platform

Hi,
If a metric has different code for different platform, or the metric only runs on some specific type of system, how can we apply it to a group of hosts?
For example, I have a metric that checks only Sun T3 types of systems. I can create a group of hosts that are T3 type system, but how do I apply the metric to this group?
The other example is the way to collect data is different for Soaris and Linux platform, can I have 2 metrics, one apply to the group of Solaris machines, and the other apply to the group of Linux machines?
Thanks.

Hi,
You can use EM groups and monitoring templates to accomplish what you want to do. For example, create a group for Solaris hosts and a template to push out appropriate metric settings for the group.

LabVIEW Embedded - Performance Testing - Different Platforms

Hi all,
I've done some performance testing of LabVIEW on various microcontroller development boards (LabVIEW Embedded for ARM) as well as on a cRIO 9122 Real-time Controller (LabVIEW Real-time) and a Dell Optiplex 790 (LabVIEW desktop). You may find the results interesting. The full report is attached and the final page of the report is reproduced below.

Analysis
For microcontrollers, single loop programming can retain almost 100% of the processing power. Such programming would require that all I/O is non-blocking as well as use of interrupts. Multiple loop programming is not recommended, except for simple applications running at loop rates less than 200 Hz, since the vast majority of the processing power is taken by LabVIEW/OS overhead.
For cRIO, there is much more processing power available, however approximately 70 to 80% of it is lost to LabVIEW/OS overhead. The end result is that what can be achieved is limiting.
For the Desktop, we get the best of both worlds; extraordinary processing power and high efficiency.
Speculation on why LabVIEW Embedded for ARM and LabVIEW Real-time performance is so poor puts the blame on excessive context switch. Each context switch typically takes 150 to 200 machine cycles and these appear to be inserted for each loop iteration. This means that tight loops (fast with not much computation) consume enormous amounts of processing power. If this is the case, an option to force a context switch every Nth loop iteration would be useful.

LabVIEW Desktop has many attractive features. This explain why LabVIEW Desktop is so successful and is the vast majority of National Instruments’ software sales (and consequently results in the vast majority of hardware sales). It is National Instruments’ flagship product and is the precursor to the other LabVIEW offerings. The execution platform is powerful, available in various form factors from various sources and is competitively priced.
LabVIEW Real-time on a cRIO/sb-RIO is a lot less attractive. To make this platform attractive the execution platform cost needs to be vastly decreased while increasing the raw processing power. It would also be beneficial to examine why the LabVIEW/OS overhead is so high. A single plug-in board no larger than 75 x 50 mm (3” x 2”) with a single unit price under $180 would certainly make the sb-RIO a viable execution platform. The peripheral connectors would not be part of the board and would be accessible via a connector. A developer mother board could house the various connectors, but these are not needed when incorporated into the final product. The recently released Xilinx Zynq would be a great chip to use ($15 in volume, 2 x ARM Cortex A9 at 800 MHz (4,000 MIPS), FPGA fabric and lots more).
LabVIEW Embedded for ARM is very OEM friendly with development boards that are open source with circuit diagrams available. To make this platform attractive, new more capable Tier 1 boards will need to be introduced, mainly to counter the large LabVIEW/OS overhead. As before, these target boards would come from microcontroller manufacturers, thereby making them inexpensive and open source. It would also be beneficial to examine why the LabVIEW/OS overhead is so high. What is required now is another Tier 1 boards (eg. DK-LM3S9D96 (ARM Cortex M3 80 MHz/96 MIPS)). Further Tier 1 boards should be targeted every two years (eg. BeagleBoard-xM (ARM Cortex A8 1000 MHz/2000 MIPS board)) to keep LabVIEW Embedded for ARM relevant.

I've got to say though, it would really be good if NI could further develop the ARM embedded toolkit.
In the industry I'm in, and probably many others, control algorithm development and testing oocurs in labview. If you have a good LV developer or team, you'll end up with fairly solid, stable and tested code. But what happens now, once the concept is validated, is that all this is thrown away and the C programmers create the embedded code that will go into the real product.
The development cycle starts from scratch.
It would be amazing if you could strip down that code and deploy it onto ARM and expect it to not be too inefficient. Development costs and time to market go way down.. BUT, but especially in the industry I presently work in, the final product's COST is extremely important. (These being consumer products, chaper micro cheaper product) .
These concerns weight HEAVILY. I didn't get a warm fuzzy about the ARM toolkit for my application. I'm sure it's got its niches, but just imagine what could happen if some more work went into it to make it truly appealing to wider market...

Output from same script on two different platforms produce different outputs.

I'm running a command prompt script on two different platforms (Windows 7 desktop and a Microsoft Server 2008 R2 Enterprise platform) and the output the script produces is different on each platform.
Specifically; the script is
For /f "tokens=2-4 delims=/ " %%a in ('date /t') do (set mydate=%%c-%%a-%%b)
For /f "tokens=1-2 delims=/:" %%a in ('time /t') do (set mytime=%%a%%b)
echo %mydate%>> log.txt
echo %mytime%>> log.txt
and the output from the Windows 7 desktop is:
2014-07-31
0249 PM
While the output from the 2008 server is:
ECHO is on.
0249 PM

Hi Dave,
There's some very good learning resources here:

Also, there's a script repository full of examples you can learn from and tweak to meet your needs here:
http://gallery.technet.microsoft.com/scriptcenter
As an additional suggestion, I'd highly recommend upgrading PowerShell on Win7 and WS2008R2 to v4. v2 was okay, but v4 makes life much easier (make sure you read the system requirements first though, there's still a few incompatibilities):

Data guard between different platforms?

I'm pretty sure the answer is no but just want to be sure, so my question is...Can you have a data guard physical standby server that is running on a different platform than the primary?
For instance, We have just been informed by our sakes rep that Oracle is dropping the Itanium platform because future releases of red hat will no longer be supporting the Itanium platform and that Oracle is following the red hat model...
Can we setup dataguard to migrate off of current hardware platform to a new X86_64 platform?
Thanks.

Thanks.This would follow the same rule that both, primary and standby must run on the same platform and o/s. So I guess, the answer would be that you would need to move both of your servers. But, just to be assure, you should raise the same question on the dedicated forum of dataguard where product manager of DG , Larry Carpenter hangs around as well. That would be the place where I would ask my data guard doubts.

Determine component height for different platform

Hi, all
It just came to me, how can I determine optimal component height for JLabel,JTextField while calling setPreferredSize on different platform? Different screen dpi,fonts,etc. Is there a guide line, so each component will be not too small?
Thanks,
Vincent Chen

But I need to call setPreferredSize to arrange screen display while using flow layout. Under some situation, flow layout is my only choice. Any solution?

DB Copy / to a different platform on 9i R2

Hi,
is it possible make a database copy(using unix cp) on 9i R2:
from platform: HP-UX pa-risc 64 bit // Big Endian
to AIX5L 64bit // Big Endian
or this is only possible using imp / exp utilities.
Thank you,
D.

or this is only possible using imp / exp utilities.It may be possible to copy the database through different platform without imp/exp.
Steps:
1. install oracle10g software in HP-UX
2. upgrade your original database to 10g
3. install oracle 10g software in AIX5L
4. use TTS to clone your databases in 10g version.
5. downgrade to 9iR2 if you want.

HELP! Please :) my website looks different in different browsers. Link boxes are showing in IE!!

Please help me! I'm pretty new to web design. Built this website from scratch - designed in photoshop and put together in dreamweaver. I launched the site and it looks great in safari, but had a friend look at it with explorer and the blue link boxes (the one that lets you know you have something linked in dreamweaver) are showing up on the interent explorer browser and I can only assume there are issues in other browsers as well. Please help if you can. Here is a link to my website:   www.shandryntrumble.com Thanks

Thanks for your help!Should I create an external style sheet? I'm still unsure of where and what to put in the document. Where are the CSS tags? And what exactly do I place in them? Sorry, I'm so new to this. Thanks for your patience.

Bad information. You don't need a class for this. Simply add the following CSS code to your style sheet. An external style sheet is preferred but it if you don't have one yet, add this code to the CSS inside the tags of your HTML document. /*remove borders from all linked images*/a img    Nancy O.
