What is an easy way to get to my app store on my computer? I can never just go to it and usually end up there by pure luck.

what is an easy way to get to my "app" store on my computer? I usually just stumble upon it my chance.

If you mean the App Store for your iOS devices, that is in iTunes. If you are running iTunes 12, then you would select the App icon in the toolbar, then select Store:

What's an easy way to determine what the user typed is a date object?

What's an easy way to determine what the user typed is a date
object?
Thanks!

Thanks for trying. Sorry for not being clear. but I figured
it out.
the user can type in a date, or a name to search. The format
they type in date has to be in mm/dd/yyyy.
I was able to use:
if (new Date(textEntered).toString()=="Invalid Date") {
// not a date entered
else {
// a date is entered
To do what I need to do.
Thanks.

Easier way to rename music files and locate them with iTunes? Help, please!

A while back, I used a 3rd party software (Yamipod) to move all my music off of my video ipod to a new computer. Yamipod converted all of my music file names to read "album name - artist - song name", instead of how iTunes imports music "01 song name". Yamipod also created a sub-folder "1" for each album the artist has in my iTunes music folder.
For example, when in my iTunes music folder, if I click on Justin Timberlake, it will show the two albums I have "FutureSex" and "Justified". If I click on "Justified" it shows a folder "1" which I have to click on to get to the song which is then named "Justified - Justin Timberlake - Rock Your Body" instead of "06 Rock Your Body"
When in my iTunes folder, a lot of my music cannot be found (even though it is not technically lost), so I manually have to click through all my iTunes music folders to "re-attach" the file so iTunes can then play the music.
Here's what I am looking for:
1. I want to rename all of my music files back to iTunes format of "track # song name" (i.e. 06 Rock Your Body) without manually retyping every song title.
2. An easier way for iTunes to "find" all of my music instead of me manually pointing to each and every file. I have all the music, I just have to manually show iTunes where each of the 1600+ songs is located, which is a long and tedious process that I do not have the time or patience for.
I would greatly appreciate any advice on how to manage this without going bonkers.
Thank you!!

Well, the one problem you have is that for the "Move" function, the source file input should be wired to the output of the "Build Path" function, not to the duplicate path out of the "List" function. Also, you need to pass the error cluster around with a shift register. Otherwise you will not catch an error that may have occurred during one of the file rename operations.

What's the easiest way to rename applications in Launchpad

One of the problems with Launchpad is that it shortens long app names, like "Adobe After Effects CS 5.5" to "Adobe Aft...ects CS 5.5" which is not very useful!
I figured out one way to edit the name displayed by Launchpad, which is to use a SQL editor (I used MesaSQLlite) to edit the database that Launchpad uses
(it's located in ~/Library/Application\ Support/Dock)
Opening the database was unnecessarily tedious - the editor couldn't "see" the folder, so I had to navigate there in terminal, open it ("open ."), move it elsewhere (for some reason copying is not allowed), edit it, then move it back.
Editing itself is not hard (look in the table apps) and after editing I have to force reload the dock ("sudo killall Dock")
Is there an easier way to do this?

I had exactly the same thing in mind: to get rid of the truncated "Adobe Ill... CS5.5" titles in launchpad. Renaming in Applications didn't seem to work at first, but then I noticed that the actual program, e.g. Adobe Photoshop CS5.5 is nested in a folder with the same name and same icon, so at first I had mistaken the folder for the program and renamed that one.
When I finally noticed the little arrow I got into that folder, renamed the actual app, cleared out the database for the launchpad (see here: http://gnuu.org/2011/07/21/clearing-launchpad-and-other-osx-lion-tips/) and voilá!
Neat short names in Launchpad, plus I got rid of all the helpers and tools that annoyingly hung out there (except for the adobe uninstaller, which still clings on, god knows how).
Maybe you can check if you tried to rename the folder or the app inside it?

What is the easier way to edit a captured slide?

I have created a demonstration animation and there are several slides that need a little graphics editing.
So far, I have not found a way to automate the process of editing slides.
The only method I can determine is by selecting "Copy Background", then opening a graphics editor, pasting to a new window, edit accordingly, save the edited graphic background, import into the slide.
Isn't there anyway to edit inline?.. meaning, the background is automatically sent to your choosen graphics editor, you edit the graphic, click save/exit, and the graphics background is automatically updated. That is how Captivate 4's competitors do it.

Hi Shawn
It really depends on what exactly you need to do. For example, if all you want is an easy way to blot out some words, use a Highlight Box object at zero percent transparency. Then merge it into the background. Or maybe you need an image added in. Add the image separately and merge it.
Last week we needed to render an option button as unselected. In that case I just right-clicked and opened in Microsoft Paint. Duplicated another and overlaid the errant one. Closed and saved. Total update time from start to finish was less than two minutes.
Cheers... Rick

What is the "easy" way to get to 3.1.2?

I've "loved" the Oracle database for many years, and is thrilled with Apex. I no longer work as a DBA, but tries to keep my technical stuff close.
I have an Apex 2.1 installation on an 10g database on Ubuntu 8.10 server. I did the lazy install then, and installed via aptitude (more or less automated install).
I would like to install 3.1.2, but must admit I almost lost courage when I read the requirements.
My Oracle install right now can be discarded, so I wanted to ask: what is the easiest way for me to get 3.1.2 installed on Ubuntu?
Install the latest version of 11g? Run a magic script, that automates all that Oracle exhaustively describes?
Thanks in advance
Yours
/Kim
End note/rant: given that oracle can describe everything in such details, why oh why, not just build an installer around it?! the chances of errors are multitudes greater with all these nitty gritty commands. My SQL Server DBAs routinely updates, installs and patches SQL Server without much of a hassle. Oracle DBAs gets ticks thinking of the testing needed...

Just to be clear, you're probably running Oracle Express Edition, or "XE" based on the fact that you installed it via aptitude and it has APEX 2.1 pre-installed. It may say 10g when you login, but please refer to it as XE in the forums so people know what db they're dealing with.
There is no "easy" way to magically install 3.1.2. You have to follow the install guide to the letter now matter what path you take. Even if you install 11.1, it only has APEX 3.0 pre-installed. Even though I really prefer 11 to 10, I think your best off sticking with XE, especially since there are no licensing issues. For what it's worth, I've suggested that APEX needs a GUI installer (such as Oracle Universal Installer) for several years now since the install / upgrade process can be a bit daunting. Until the community demands it, I don't think it's going to happen, so please, speak up if you think the install process is too hard.

Is there an easy way to rename my startup disk?

I would like to rename my startup disk. I had it my MacBook Pro reprogrammed at the Apple store and I got the name "Snow Leopard 11" added at no extra charge (just kidding). Now that OS X Lion is here, I would like to change the name to reflect this update. Is there a simple, easy way to do this? Thanks in advance J.F.G.

On the start up disc icon on your desktop, right click and select "Get Info". This should bring up a window. Open the "Name & Extension" tab and from there, you will be able to edit it.

Is ther an "easy way" to rename my iweb pages?

Here is my dilema
I have a iweb site hosted on go daddy so I have to update via an FTP which as you know each time to re-publish to your folder it creates a new time stamp and MOST ftp clients then reupload the entire site...
Well I fould this prorgram called "webecho" thanks to James Steng
and I "finally" figured out that indeed it works just like updating to .mac change 1 image on 1 page >publish to folder> update and it only uploads that one image cool huh?
Here is the drawback you can't have any spaces in your page names so instead of a page called "About Me" you have to name it "AboutMe" (no space between "about & Me" which of course looks foolish in your navigation pane
So my question is this
Is ther an "easy way" to name your pages wihtout spaces ~BUT~ still have spaces in the navigation pane?
Thanks in advance!
and
Happy New Yerar to all the great folks in this group!
Jim

This gets very convoluted very quickly, but there actually is a way to eliminate spaces in your filenames and keep the spaces in the navigation menu...
There is another handy utility called "iWeb FTP Utility" that is available here:
http://www.brokenropesoftware.com/iWebFTPUtility
This is a command line tool that will strip out the spaces in your filenames AND alter the HTML references to these files to reflect the new "spaceless" names. There's no easier way of doing this.
So your workflow then becomes:
1. Design and "Publish to Folder" with iWeb
2. Run iWeb FTP utility against the published sitefolder
3. Upload to your server with WebEcho or similar FTP.
Since iWeb FTP Utility only changes the filenames and references after publishing, the navigation menu images never get touched and will still display the names with spaces!

What is an easy way to log and share lists (grocery, mileage) with my wife?

My wife and I have all the Apple devices and would like an easy way to share lists; specifically, a grocery list and a mileage list. The latter is for whenever each of us drives our personal vehicle for business use.
If it was just me, I can create a Numbers spreadsheet and save it to the Cloud. Then, it's accessible from all my Apple devices. But she and I need to be able to hit the same documents.
I've seen some apps in the iOS AppStore, but don't need all those bells and whistles. Can't I just grant her access to my Numbers document in my cloud or something?
Thanks for any advice.

Hi rcook,
If you are both on the same iCloud account, then by far the easiest way to share (and update) notes is to use the Notes app. I use it for all of my "to do" and "grocery lists" among other things. I can updae it on my Mac, and with I go to the store - it is there waiting for me on my iPhone! No syncing, required, If is check somethng off, or delete it, then if my husband is looking at/using the same list, he knows that itm is taken care of.
Not sure if this fits your needs, but it works great for us!
Cheers,
GB

What's an easy way to start an agent in current JVM after it is running?

I want to be able to start a Java agent in the current JVM. I cannot control how the JVM is started, therefore I cannot specify -javaagent on the java command.
I know the attach API lets me attach to a JVM if I have its PID. But unless I have missed something there is no platform-independent way of getting the current PID to pass to VirtualMachine.attach.
I have run an experiment that seems to work in which my code:
1. Uses File.createTempFile to create a unique temp file.
2. Sets a system property to the temp file's path.
3. Uses VirtualMachine.list to get VirtualMachineDescriptors for all known VMs.
4. For each VMD:
4a. Attaches to the VM using theVirtualMachineDescriptor.id().
4b. Retrieves the system properties from the VM.
4c. Searches the Properties for the system property name and, if found, checks its value.
4d. If they match, the VirtualMachine in the loop is the currently-running VM one and do what I want.
4e. If they do not match, detach from that VM and check the next VM in the list.
This is terribly cumbersome, plus it requires that tools.jar be available.
Is there no simpler way to establish an agent in the current VM? Or to attach to the current VM?
(I also tried passing an empty string and "-1" as the PID to VirtualMachine.attach with no luck. Not that I expected those to work, given that the JavaDoc said nothing about these special values.)
Thanks.

Edited slightly for clarity by: tjquinn on Jan 23, 2008 4:26 PM

Thanks a lot for the pointers, Alan.
The real underlying difficulty I didn't mention earlier is that Java Web Start is launching the applications of interest here. The JNLP spec currently provides no way of indicating an agent in the JNLP document, the -javaagent command line option is not one of the ones that Java Web Start chooses to handle (for the obvious security reasons I presume), and JNLP provides no mechanism for defining environment variables. So perhaps this is a lost cause until the JNLP spec and/or the Java Web Start implementation evolve.
(There is a bug from years ago filed against Java Web Start asking for the equivalent of the -javaagent feature.)
My questions in this thread reflect my (unsuccessful) attempts at side-stepping those Java Web Start restrictions.
It does seem to me that the management enhancements over the past several Java SE versions have done a nice job of allowing different JVMs to manage and monitor each other. The special case of a JVM managing or monitoring itself is not so easy. In my particular case I don't really need the ability to attach to a different JVM. If I could just get the VirtualMachine instance for the current JVM (without needing tools.jar) I'd be done and on my way.
Is that worth an RFE against management/monitoring do you think?

What is the easy way to create a crossword with InDesign CS5 for a interactive pdf?

I mean I want to create a pdf magazine and i like to include a crossword. I read somewhere that one way is create a crossword with an external software and include it in the ID project but I don't know any crossword software and if I add in my ID project, I only need to export like a interactive pdf? I would like that the users can use the crossword in online version.
Regards from Lima, Perú

Hi.
I'm not sure about what to you mean. But I create first the crossword with Excel, I mean to put the words in the right order and the questions and/or cue too. Then I create a table in InDesign and format some cells with black background and some borders. I upload both captures, from Excel and from InDesigne. Then with Adobe X Pro I create a form, so I can create singles inputs for the crossword.
I hope i understand your question.
