What's up with Java Zero Day, and is Snow Leopard endangered?
That.
Patched or not and regardless of the version, I'd keep Java disabled, period. Best place for Java is shackled, locked up and caged.

If you do not need Java, get rid of it, and if you do need it for specific applications or sites, limit your use of Java to those sites and applications, using a secondary browser for that purpose.

How can i partition my hard drive with lion on it and install snow leopard from time machine
How do I partition my hard drive which has lion on it and reinstall os6 from my time machine?
You going to need a second harddrive. It is riskie to resize your haddrive with live data on it. You need a backup of the data. That said, you might as well copy your data to the second harddrive. Repartition. Then copy the data back. I bought a 128gig flash drive from walmart for $32.
There were repartition commands introduced in 10.4.6 to repartition the harddrive.
For what it is worth, you can non-destructively partition a harddrive from single user mode in 10.4.6 or greater. Of course, you should have a backup of the harddrive.

Problem with java swing button and loop
Problem with java swing button and loop
I�m using VAJ 4.0. and I�m doing normal GUI application. I have next problem.
I have in the same class two jswing buttons named start (ivjGStart) and stop (ivjGStop) and private static int field named Status where initial value is 0. This buttons should work something like this:
When I click on start button it must do next:
Start button must set disenabled and Stop button must set enabled and selected. Field status is set to 1, because this is a condition in next procedure in some loop. And then procedure named IzvajajNeprekinjeno() is invoked.
And when I click on stop button it must do next:
Start button must set enabled and selected and Stop button must set disenabled.
Field status is set to 0.
This works everything fine without loop �do .. while� inside the procedure IzvajajNeprekinjeno(). But when used this loop the start button all the time stay (like) pressed. And this means that a can�t stop my loop.
There is java code, so you can get better picture:
/** start button */
public void gStart_ActionEvents() {
try {
ivjGStart.setEnabled(false);
ivjGStop.setEnabled(true);
ivjGStop.setSelected(true);
getJTextPane1().setText("Program is running ...");
Status = 1;
} catch (Exception e) {}
/** stop button */
public void gStop_ActionEvents() {
try {
ivjGStart.setEnabled(true);
ivjGStart.setSelected(true);
ivjGStop.setEnabled(false);
getJTextPane1().setText("Program is NOT running ...");
Status = 0;
} catch (Exception e) {
/** procedure IzvajajNeprekinjeno() */
public void IzvajajNeprekinjeno() { //RunLoop
try {
int zamik = 2000; //delay
do {
Thread.sleep(zamik);
PreberiDat(); //procedure
} while (Status == 1);
} catch (Exception e) {
So, I'm asking what I have to do, that start button will not all the time stay pressed? Or some other aspect of solving this problem.
Any help will be appreciated.
Best regards,
TomiThis is a multi thread problem. When you start the gui, it is running in one thread. Lets call that GUI_Thread so we know what we are talking about.
Since java is task-based this will happen if you do like this:
1. Button "Start" is pressed. Thread running: GUI_Thread
2. Event gStart_ActionEvents() called. Thread running: GUI_Thread
3. Method IzvajajNeprekinjeno() called. Thread running: GUI_Thread
4. Sleep in method IzvajajNeprekinjeno() on thread GUI_Thread
5. Call PreberiDat(). Thread running: GUI_Thread
6. Check status. If == 1, go tho 4. Thread running: GUI_Thread.
Since the method IzvajajNeprekinjeno() (what does that mean?) and the GUI is running in the same thread and the event that the Start button has thrown isn't done yet, the program will go on in the IzvajajNeprekinjeno() method forever and never let you press the Stop-button.
What you have to do is do put either the GUI in a thread of its own or start a new thread that will do the task of the IzvajajNeprekinjeno() method.

Want to display no. of ser. orders closed with in 1 day and outside 1 day
Hi Experts,
Im displaying a summary report for Closed call.
I want to display the Number of Service Orders Closed With in 1 day and Out side 1 day.
For example:
Brand......ASP...................With in 1day...............................Outside 1 day
ABC1........ALPHA Tec...........24................................................5
BCD2..........BETA Tec.............76................................................7
The difference of days I have brought using 2 variables (1. is for closed date and 2. is for service order created date)
In the Formula Variable I have (Subscrated Closed date - Created Date)
I'm not very sure how to bring the count of the service order that are closed with in 1 day and outside 1day.
Please help.
ThanksHi,
This could be achieved through Data model level as well:
1. By assuming you have two date char Created date and closing date.
2. Create a char (On-time) flag and populate flag by ABAP coding if Closing - Created = 1 then field should be Check ("X").
3. Restrict your report with this Flag to find out number of Service orders on-time.
4. Define a counter KYF in your data model and maintain fixed value = 1 in your cube / ODS.
This is one approach let me know if any further information is required.

What is wrong with the app store and how long before its fixed, im downloading atna very slow pash and i have a 10mb uncontested line.
Sorry, its on both my iphone 4s (2 iphones) and ipad2 that the app store is slow, I have done all the above and still when i download a 1 mb app it take about a half a hour just to download and previously it wasn't even a second. When browsing the web the devices are fast and internet speed is good, but when going in to app store it takes long to load and show me the new app, updates, featured app ect. We watch movie online and the streaming is brilliant. Even on my windows pc the app store is slow and sometimes says that i store could not be opened, i have also tried on my buddies wifi and there it does exactly the same which makes me think that its on apples side, but why do you not have any problems?

Is the Java "Zero-Day" bug dangerous for MountainLion users?
Is the Java "Zero-Day" bug dangerous for MountainLion users?
It is not yet dangerous, to my knowledge, as it is currently being used only to distribute Windows malware. But users of Java 7 are certainly vulnerable, should a hacker start distributing Mac malware through this vulnerability.

I just purchased and downloaded snow leopard and now I cant access my parallels 3.0 application. What do I do now so I can get back into my windows
I just purchased and downloaded snow leopard
Uh…no, you didn't. Snow Leopard is not available as a download, and never has been. So that means you're running Lion, in which case Parallels 3 definitely won't be compatible with it. You need to check what you're really running and use that information to post in the correct forum, as well as provide the necessary information about it. -
I recently upgraded to Firefox 13.0.1 and I’m operating a Mac Powerbook Pro with OS of 10.6.8 (Snow Leopard).
Now I’m having intermittent problems with sending emails where Firefox freezes up. There is often a yellow warning above suggesting 32-bit mode, sometimes I can click to shift it that way, sometimes not.
Anyone having these problems?

I have a mid 2010 Macbook Pro running Snow Leopard and foolishly upgraded to Yosemite. Now have numerous problems. Is it possible to go back in time with Time Machine and reinstall Snow Leopard? Then upgrade to Lion or Mavericks? Any other ideas on how I can exit Yosemite?
Once you get yourself back to Snow Leopard, if you still want to upgrade somewhat, I would suggest the following:
1. Get an external hard drive that you can use for experiments with new OS versions. You could partition it into 2 or 3 partitions. You could then clone your existing Snow Leopard system to one partition using Carbon Copy Cloner (well worth $40) or SuperDuper ($25).
2. Buy OS X Mountain Lion for $20, through the Apple online store (I don't think it's available through the App Store). Apple has decided to make it very difficult for anyone to get Mavericks unless they have already downloaded it.
You will receive two e-mails from Apple, one containing a PDF with a redemption code, and one with the password you will need to unlock the PDF. Using the code, you will download Mountain Lion from the App Store, where it will appear among your Purchased items.
After ML finishes downloading, its installer app will launch itself. When you see this launch screen, QUIT the install app immediately! Go to your applications folder, find the Install OS X Mountain Lion app, and copy it to a safe location outside of your Applications folder. Keeping one or more copies will allow you to reinstall without unnecessary aggravation if you later need or want to do that. At this point, you can re-launch the Installer in the Applications folder and let it run. You can install it on a clean partition on your external HD, or you can allow it to upgrade the Snow Leopard clone you created on your external drive, or you can do both. This should allow you to test how everything works for as long as you like.
3. If you left yourself a free partition on your test drive, try a clean install of Yosemite and set everything up from scratch (do not migrate anything). This will allow you to see whether your problems with it were related to something in your Snow Leopard system. -
So, I've taken my panasonic printer back to the shop and exchenged it for a Canon MF-4430. Alas... the generic drivers do not make it print. Is it possible to get drivers to make this canon printer work with my lovely Mac Book Pro Snow Leopard, 6.8?
I could not find a MF-4430 at the Canon site. Are you sure the model is correct? They have a MF4450. The Mac drivers are here:

If you are sure you have a MF4430, look around the canon site for the drivers. -

i just brought a laptop on ebay with snow leopard on it and alot of programs i dont want. i want to erase everthing and end up with the snow leopard amd i can buy ilife which i want.
Erase and Install Snow Leopard
1. Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer Disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area. If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing. SMART info will not be reported on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
4. Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
5. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Security button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
6. Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to several hours depending upon the drive size.
7. After formatting is complete quit DU and complete the Snow Leopard installation. -
I have a 2010 Macbook, and have snow leopard on it. Do I need to upgrade to Mountain Lion first on order to be able to upgrade to Mavericks?

You shouldn't assume that someone with a 2010 Mac is going to have a lot of incompatible PowerPC software.
It's wrong for you to assume that they don't care about what they are about to lose, even if it's one PPC program.
It's not uncommon for people to keep their software up to date.
It's wrong for you to assume that all software is being updated or that there are Intel versions available.
I have a mid/late-2007 MacBook Pro 3.1 with 6 Gigs of RAM and a 750 Gig 7200rpm hybrid hard drive that is running Mountain Lion just fine. Performance benchmarks with Geekbench are equal between SL and ML, and the Mac runs about 20 F degrees cooler than it did with SL.
You took extremely good care of your almost 7 year old machine and judiciously used it, you added more RAM and a faster cooler hybrid drive to make up for the more feature rich yet slower performing Mountain Lion.
Congratulations, your a conservative.
It would be nice to have some empathy for the people you advise that they also also don't get suddenly ambused by a OS X upgrade that's going to disable software they care about using still. -
A Kernel Task runs at 700% processor power between every 5 minutes to 1 hour, slowing down everything I do. I have tried Onyx, zapped the PRAM and reinstalled Snow Leopard. Any suggestions?
pan did you solve it? i have the same issue. i see people writing 'oh no kernel on 200-300%... well my kernel runs up to 600-800% anytime. i'm running os 10.6.8, i have 2010 2GHz intel core i7, with 16gb ram and... go figure. even ssd drive, thinking i have the fastest possible hardware installed to ease up on any task i'm about to do. but when it gets slow then safari just 'quits' on me, mouse cursor gets so sloppy slow (that's how i always realize that kernel is knocking on the door again). but... i do use screen, 24 apple LED and i have the laptop still open, so dual screen. i think it happens way less when the laptop is closed and i use just the big screen... but i refuse, this is not a calculator, its god **** macbook pro, so if one extra screen kills my workflow then i have to... idont know what. help apple, wth! and your safari ***** so much it's not even nice, it's so buggy but i'm the crazy one, because i keep using it. that's all
