What to do once a New Program is downloaded?

I've just downloaded Open Office. I've even managed to put the icon on the dock. But the Open office icon inside the Application folder doesn't show the proper Open Office icon, instead, it has a white circle with a line across.
Also, there an OpenOffice.org icon that looks like a white hard drive on the top right desktop that I can't get rid of. What steps should I take every time I've downloaded a new program?

It should change to the correct icon if you logout or restart.

After you drag the application to the Applications folder, eject the disk image (click the triangle to the its right in the Finder sidebar) and drag the disk image file to the trash.

  • What is wrong with the new operating system download?

    When I try to download the new operating system it fails every time.  I get all the way to the end of the download and a screen pops up that says my internet connection failed.  It's connected 100% though

    no error code is given, it gets to the very end of downloading it (so obviously the internet is connected and working perfectly).  then when it tries to process the file it says, "Network Connection Timed Out"... every single time!!!!!!

  • How can I get a new program I downloaded to stay on my dock?

    Right clicking just opens it.  Whenever I log off the icon goes away.  A different icon stays on my desktop as well and I don't want it there.

    If the icon looks like a drive, open that icon and make sure you have copied the app to the Applications folder. If not, open a Finder window, choose Applications in the sidebar and drag the app icon to the Applications folder. Finally, move the drive icon to the Trash.
    If you right-click the app icon in the Dock, you will get a popup, and among other things, you will get an Options button with a "Keep in Dock" option. Try this. You can also hold the Control key and then press the app icon in the Dock.
    Another way of keeping your app icon in the Dock is to go to the Applications folder following the steps above, and then drag the app icon to the Dock

  • New programs not working and websites not displaying correctly

    I need a little assistance. My older G5 is running Mac OS X (10.3.x), Mac OS X 10.3.9 (7W98) - I don't have the funds to upgrade right now - and during an update to iTunes awhile back the power was accidently cut and then my mess began. ITunes would no longer open,
    I am good with PCs and can pretty much resolve anything on them, but have been absolutely stumped with this. I searched all kinds of troubleshooting and eventually decided to just erase and reinstall Panther hoping that would resolve the issue, iTunes works now, but Safari is not displaying web pages correctly (for instance Facebook is just a stack of words but other sites may look okay), and now any new program I download will not open after I install it like Firefox.
    Any ideas as to how I can resolve this mess?

    You can try do download Onyx, it is a good free Software that will repair many issues that you can have with your Mac. You are running the very last 10.3.x I suppose.

    hi help unlock the phone happened after we installed a new programa we can not get the activation password and ID, I know and still does not stop the phone bought in Israel and what documents should be sent to confirm that my phone Please read through the help

    What I am saying is ..........
    The iPhone HAS to be active making calls on the UK carrier network for the carrier to identify as "theirs" and therefore eligible for the Carrier to unlock
    The way to achieve this is to use a PAYG sim making and receiving calls to establish a customer relationship  with the Carrier and then follow the Carrier's process to unlock
    With a PAYG it usually means adding a specified (by the carrier ) amount  usually £15 /£20 depending on the carrier
    This is how O2 function and according to Gemma  this is how Vodafone work

  • Checking wether a program(s) follows stds/naming convenions in new program

    Hi,
    We are developing a new program what it does is it need to check all the naming standards/conventions which we follow in our project are in new program (or) not.
    In New program we are taking Program Name/Transport request as input.
    Once we run this program by giving Existing Program Name (or) transport request we have check wether all the includes/program as per input follows naming standards (or) not.
    We need to give message(s) in the output for each Naming convention/standard wether it is successfully implemented that convention/standard one after other.
    Now my issue is how can we implement the same.
    Is there any standard transaction in SAP where we can add our own naming convention/standard so that once we run that transaction it will take care of all the standards.
    If not as per our development first we are takng all the lines in program into one internal table there we are removing all the commented & blank lines and processing other lines.
    Now using those remaining lines we need to process to see wether they all following naming conventions and standards.
    Ex standards and conventions that need to be followed:
    <b>1. The names of components in classes, that is attributes, methods and events, must consist of the characters "A-Z", "0-9" and "_". They should not begin with a number.</b>
    <b>Error message in ABAP Objects if the following syntax is used:</b>
    DATA: field-name TYPE ...,
          1name TYPE ...
    <b>Correct syntax:</b>
    DATA: field_name TYPE ...,
          name1 TYPE ...
    <b>2. No LIKE reference to Dictionary types</b>
    <b>Error message in ABAP Objects if the following syntax is used:</b>
    DATA f LIKE dbtab.
    <b>Correct syntax:</b>
    DATA f TYPE dbtab.
    <b>3. No implicit specification of type, length and decimal places</b>
    In the statement TYPES, the type must be specified explicitly with type C, the length with types C, N, P, and X, and the number of decimal places with type P in ABAP Objects.
    <b>Error message in ABAP Objects if the following syntax is used:</b>
    TYPES: t1,
           t2 TYPE p.
    <b>Correct syntax:</b>
    TYPES: t1(1) TYPE c,
           t2(8) TYPE p DECIMALS 0.
    <b>4. Incorrect logical operators</b>
    The logical operators >< , =< and => are not allowed in ABAP Objects.
    <b>Error message in ABAP Objects if the following syntax is used:</b>
    ... >< ... =< ... => ...
    <b>Correct syntax:</b>
    ... <> ... <= ... >= ...
    There are lots of checks as mentioned above we need to implement all of those.
    Likewise we need to check wether the program is implementing all the standards & naming conventions.
    How can we add all such things[Checks] in my program.
    Can anybody help me in this regard.
    If anybody who has done such programs please pass on those ideas.
    Thanks in advance.
    Thanks and Regards,
    Deep.

    Hi,
    These things i am aware of.
    But here we will not be able to add our own standards/conventions.
    Is there any provision in SAP to include/provide our own checks along with SAP's own checks!
    Because it is not possible to add our own checks we are developing new program to implement our own checks.
    Thanks for your reply.
    Thanks,
    Deep.

  • New Program Guide - unusable

    I want to be tactful about this - what would be the best way to characterize your new program guide - Sick Joke? In what sense is it an improvement over the previous one?  It is in fact immeasurably WORSE.  How could anyone at Verizon have signed off on this?
    The biggest problem is that it is now unacceptably, absurdly, SLOW.  Was that the intention?  I asked Verizon Phone Tech support if  they slowed it down intentionally , because maybe the network traffic volume was too costly for Verizon and they wanted to cut expenses.  Amazingly, he did not give a flat denial to this.  As I recall he said He didn't have any knowledge that that was the case.
    The way it used to work is for example you would hold down the right arrow button, and it would as expected just briskly scroll through  all the programming selections for that day for whatever channel you happened to be looking at, scrolling through all subsequent shows on the channel that day.  (And also as a recall when scrolling through subsdequent days).
    Now you hold down the right arrow button, and it scrolls forward just one show, and then just freezes, doing nothing.  If a few seconds later you lift your finger off the right arrow button,  it immediately jumps to say 8 hours in advance.  This makes this feature unusable.  How could you not understand that, Verizon?
    The same situation exists when scrolling to different channels with the up or down arrows.  Press and hold down  the down arrow, and it does in fact scroll through the subsequent channel icons, but it does NOT,  as it did with the previous program guide, scroll through all the  program DESCRIPTIONS in real time.  So why was that feature ditched? 
    The fastest it can scroll in real time now either left/right or up/down  is 1 entire second.  So, iow, hit the down arrow, and...one one thousand two ...OK NOW it switches.  What is up with that? 
    For the record, this is not the high-def Verizon box.  The TV on the high-def box seem to work a little better.  Does Verizon only support high-def now?
    And I haven't even mentioned the bizarre color scheme and other bizarre design decisions for the new Program Guide layout.  So, how is it better to reduce the size on the screen where the actual program info is, and surround it with a a lot of unused white space (or shoud I say unused sickly pale blue space)?  Just as far as the aesthetics of the new guide, there is not a single aspect of it that is not drastically worse than it was previously.  (e.g.hitting the info button during a show and it covering a third of  the screen.) 
    But disregard the complaints about  the colors, etc.  - just go wild with that if you want.  Just please restore the SPEED of the programming guide to what it was previously.  Because the way it is now its unusable. 
    Is there any way to go back to the old guide?  There is in fact an option in the Menu for the Classic Guide, but it does not do anything except rearrange the new guide a little bit to make it even worse.
    What is going on with you people (Verizon).

    I'm sorry to hear your frustration with the new guide. There is no way to go back to the old style guide. If unplugging the power cord to the box and plugging it in doesn't speed up the guide maneuvering, please send me a private message.

  • Dvd/cd drive works but won't allow me to install new programs from disk, doesn't recognize the disk,

    dvd/cd drive works but won't allow me to install new programs from disk, doesn't recognize the disk, what can I do?

    Well I was able to obtain a work around download of Flash and it installed fine but Firefox tells me it needs updating so I go out, thinking I'm "IN" finally to update it and I get that issue of not being able to get the update for it.  It's a regular laptop, not a touch screen or one of those new fangled ones for todays world.  In fact it's a refurb so it's probably origin date was a year or so ago before all this MS stuff took off fully.  So not understanding why I'm feeling like I'm being BLOCKED from getting the updated Flash I need and desire.  If I click on the little "X" and tell it to ignore the warning the vid will play just fine but don't want to have to do that every time.  Must be a better way. 
    Again, I'm sorry for posting in the wrong forum, getting this posted in the Flash forum was my desire but the way Adobe has this set up I just couldn't figure it out.  I belong to ALLOT of forums and most are pretty straight forward but this one is confusing!

    You need the admin password you created when you first set up the machine.  Just about every installer running under OS X will require you to authorize the installation by entering an administrator password - even software update requires this.  You really should not forget your admin password, as it is required for many things in OS X since, unlike Windows, you often need to manually type in the admin password to proceed with an install or update (whereas Windows will take admin authority, if you are logged in as an admin, by simply clicking continue or yes).
    If you cannot remember your admin password, you can reset it from the recovery CD that came with your mac - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1274

  • I am getting a message "can't open because PowerPC applications are no longer supported"  What do I do about these programs?

    I am getting a message "can't open because PowerPC applications are no longer supported."  What do I do about these programs?

    In defense of the original poster, I just went through the Lion page (http://www.apple.com/macosx/) and the sub-pages linked on the top (including the 250 new features) and nowhere does it say anything about dropping Rosetta/PowerPC compatibility. A simple compatibility line in the tech specs page could help these kinds of threads. Nevertheless, the argument that Apple should have made this change more prominent is quite valid IMO.
    Remember that Apple prides itself on being simple so don't expect everyone to be as up to date on compatibility issues as you. With the big uptake of new users in the last couple of years, these kind of questions should be expected, especially since most users are coming from Windows where compatibility is king (I can run apps from 10+ years ago with almost no issues).
    Complicating the issue further is that there is no obvious way to see which older applications are PPC and which are not (who knew Warcraft 3 was PPC and not universal??).
    A simple solution could be for Apple to provide copy of Rosetta that users can purchase if they want compatibility. Who knows, maybe such a solution is going to come from a third party

    DUMP :
    Short text
        No more storage space available for extending an internal table.
    What happened?
        You attempted to extend an internal table, but the required space was
        not available.
    Error analysis
        The internal table "???" could not be further extended. To enable
        error handling, the table had to be delete before this log was written.
       As a result, the table is displayed further down or, if you branch to
        the ABAP Debugger, with 0 rows.
        At the time of the termination, the following data was determined for
        the relevant internal table:
        Memory location: "Session memory"
        Row width: 3704
        Number of rows: 230136
        Allocated rows: 230136
        Newly requested rows: 4 (in 1 blocks)
    How to correct the error
        The amount of storage space (in bytes) filled at termination time was:
        Roll area...................... 199624160
        Extended memory (EM)........... 251630992
        Assigned memory (HEAP)......... 484209696
        Short area..................... " "
        Paging area.................... 32768
        Maximum address space.......... 4294967295
        If the error occures in a non-modified SAP program, you may be able to
        find an interim solution in an SAP Note.
        If you have access to SAP Notes, carry out a search with the following
        keywords:
        "TSV_TNEW_PAGE_ALLOC_FAILED" " "
        "ZADI_V_R_869_870_STATUS" or "ZADI_V_R_869_870_STATUS"
        "GET_DATA_DBTABLES_NEW4"
        If you cannot solve the problem yourself and want to send an error
        notification to SAP, include the following information:
        1. The description of the current problem (short dump)
           To save the description, choose "System->List->Save->Local File
        (Unconverted)".
        2. Corresponding system log
           Display the system log by calling transaction SM21.
           Restrict the time interval to 10 minutes before and five minutes
        after the short dump. Then choose "System->List->Save->Local File
        (Unconverted)".
      3. If the problem occurs in a problem of your own or a modified SAP
      program: The source code of the program
         In the editor, choose "Utilities->More
