What version should be used on a Desktop Mac Intel Core running OS 10.8.5 and from where can I securely download it?

The desktop Mac I just bought used from a dealer came with Safari but I prefer to use Firefox. What version should I be using? The Mac is running OS 10.8.5. Please provide a trusted link I may use to download and properly install the correct version. Thanks.

Hello,
The latest version of Firefox is 32.0.3. You can download a fresh copy of Firefox at:
* https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/new/
or if you need a different localization:
* https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/
Please see [[How to download and install Firefox on Mac]] for more details and if you experience an issue, [[Firefox can't be opened after you install it on a Mac - How to fix]] may be helpful as well.

What OSX should I use on my 2009 MAC Book Pro? Will Yosemite run

Hi I have a Mac Book Pro from 2009 and I was wondering what OSX should I use on my 2009 MAC Book Pro? Will Yosemite run properly on this computer?

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
Your Mac supports OS X Yosemite. If you need to upgrade your Mac, do it, but if you are happy with the OS X version you are running or you do not like changes (OS X Yosemite has got an interface change), you can keep it always that it is not very old.
In order to upgrade to OS X Yosemite, it is as simple as opening the Mac App Store and downloading OS X Yosemite. When the download finishes, the installer will show up, so follow its steps. Before upgrading, it is important to make a backup of your files with Time Machine -> Mac Basics: Time Machine backs up your Mac - Apple Support You can also check that your applications are compatible with Yosemite in this website -> http://www.roaringapps.com
OS X Yosemite should run properly, but I recommend you to run it with at least 4 GB of RAM (you can check how much RAM you have in the Apple menu -> About this Mac). In case Yosemite runs slowly, the backup you made will let you go back to your old version.

You need Lightroom 5.5 or later (the most current version is 5.7.1). This is a free update if you have already purchased an earlier version of Lightroom 5.

Hi Archana-
I tried to analyse the following URLs.
http://www.koders.com/javascript/fidDEECF746921981FD9BD64B2B0EF7402979BF0570.aspx
http://www.wodeveloper.com/omniLists/webobjects-dev/2002/June/msg00804.html
function show_yearly_calendar(p_item, p_year, p_format) {
     // Load the defaults..
     if (p_year == null || p_year == "")
          p_year = new String(gNow.getFullYear().toString());
     if (p_format == null || p_format == "")
          p_format = "MM/DD/YYYY";
     var vWinCal = window.open("", "Calendar", "scrollbars=yes");
     vWinCal.opener = self;
     ggWinCal = vWinCal;
     Build(p_item, null, p_year, p_format);
Mainly in the code snippet from the second URL I could find that this is nothing but a variable.
for example vWinCal above , is a local variable which points to the calendar above.
similarly gWinCal is a global Calendar-Window object and nothing more.
You were not able to find it - since you will not find much of code level variable definitions
anywhere.
It is everewhere used as a object only which has reference to the calendar window.
I hope it makes sense to you.

Azure and Unity Master Server What Service Should I Use?

Hi all!
This is a noob question. I never buy cloud service before. I want to know, if I want to host my own Unity Master Server (an exe file as server) what service should I use? (Virtual Server? Mobile Services? Cloud Services?)
Really glad if someone can give a little explanation what they differ from each other in the simplest and practical way.
Thank you before.

Hi Sir,
Thanks for your posting!
Form your description, Would you want to deploy your exe file on Azure call it as a service on client? In your scenarios, I think VM and cloud service could meet your requirement.
Please see this code sample about host exe file on azure cloud service :

For hosting on VM, You could see this post:

I feel I must move beyond iMovie, what program should I use ?

I have been happily using iMovie and iDVD from versions 1 through 6. iMovie 08 was so bad that Apple made iMovie 06 available as a free download for buyers of iMovie 08. The newer iMovies were better, but they seemed “dumbed down” (even for me). Now, I am shocked and horrified to learn that the latest iMovie does not even set chapter markers!
So, I have continued to use iMovie 06 and iDVD 08 (they seem to work fine under OS 10.9.4).   iMovie 06 is now 8 years old! I feel compelled to move forward. A lot of my work is DV.    In the past, most of my source material came out of S-Video.   I used a Canopus ADVC300 analog-to-digital converter that gave good results.   Going forward, I will have more video utilizing Component Video, or HDMI.
I am looking into 2 possibilities, Adobe Premiere elements 12, or.........Final Cut Pro X.
The final result of my work is almost always a DVD.   It is hard for me to move from iMovie and iDVD. I never read the manuals for either program, yet, I was able to produce DVDs with nice menus and overall quality close to Hollywood.
It looks like Final Cut Pro X 'can' make a DVD directly without other software. However, from what I have seen on YouTube the result is primitive compared to what iDVD was doing 10 years ago.
Adobe Premiere elements 12 can make nice DVDs and Blu-ray's directly. I have no problem with using a separate program to make DVDs but I haven't got a clue how to do that with Final Cut Pro X.   I suppose I can still use iDVD, but now I'm back to using discontinued software.
I do not need any of the high-powered affects capability that Final Cut Pro X possesses. My “movie-making” is mostly confined to simple editing (the old iMovie 06 did all I needed).
Frankly, one motivation for choosing Final Cut Pro X, is the excellent, compassionate and understanding support that the kind people on this very forum provide. So, what program should I use?

to turn perspective for a second by 180°:
Why do you want to switch to a new editor anyhow?
• iM-a never did discs - that was iDVDs job = no big change in your workflow
• iDVD is still working, and aside obsolete, complex and $$$$ DVDSP (part of obsolete FC/p) or Encore (part of Adobes CC rent package) your only option left to create disks on MacOS is indeed iDVD (...ok, there's Toast and Burn and some weird 'shareware'-stuff...)..
• iMovie-b supports the new HDef formats (AVCHD) - you mentioned converters and DVDs = no HDef in use, in your habitat, correct?
• if you don't need FCPX' bling-bling (I can't imagine that ) - why not using FCPX-lite = iMovie? 15$ ...
• chapters could be done in iDVD - just to mention that ............
• AP and FCPX are following very different concepts in usage - my personal preference is 200% on FCPX, … I was one of the loudest nay-sayers, when iM08 araised, meanwhile, FCPX is my dream!! AP (tested it) is way too complex, crowded, 'optionalized' and did I mention 'complex' for me. A bit like Windows vs. MacOS: 'everything goes' (incl. getting lost) vs. 'convenience' (incl. restrictions) ... After 2y of practice, I'm editing my weekly hobby-projects with 6-cam-Multicam, incl. tons of custom graphics, slow-mow, effects (soccer games) in less than 2h ... awesome!
summary:
• why switching?
• use iMovie10 + iDVD
• Premiere (or Premiere Elements!) and FCPX are both avail as fee trial ... test it - but you need iDVD anyhow
• 'disks' is a dwindling niché, for years!- consider to switch to 'other' distribution options
... what are 'chapters' anyhow??... (kid din'!)

What software should I use to create a family budget?

I use my Mac mostly for internet and word processing so I know I'm not touching 90% of the functionality. I want to create a household budget but the template in my ('09?) version of Numbers is not robust enough. Are there any suggestions on how to create a household budget? What software should I use? Thank you!

There are dozens of apps designed to help with household budgets, but few are free. May I suggest you look for apps that have a free trial version, and try them out before spending money on something you may not like:

I am new with webservices. what platform should i use? wasp, glue, jwsdp .

hello i just study web services. i am very new of this. there
are many soap-based web services platform such as axis,
glue, wasp ,jwsdp etc. i don't know much about these
platform. what platform should i use in my project ? i use
java in my project. anyone have any recommend for me?
every recommend is important for me. thank you

If you're not currently involved with a web service project that is using a particular server (e.g., WebSphere, WebLogic, etc.), I suggest starting with Axis. Apache software tends to be adopted by other vendors as a basis for their products. Also, the Axis mailing lists are very active and you're more likely to get your questions answered quickly. Once you're comfortable with Axis, it's probably worthwhile to download the evaluation version of WebSphere or WebLogic to learn how to deploy web services on a commercial platform.
Good luck,

What setting should be used to make the smallest size quicktime video file.

What setting should I use to make a small sized movie for my family that lives 1200 miles away. I am using the iSight with QT Pro 7.0.4 and will be emailing them via Apple Mail to my mom that uses the most current version of AOL for PC with a 1 Meg DSL connection. The reason I am emailing them is she does not have a camera to live chat.
The first movie I tried was over 4 meg and these files have to go over the internet. It bounced back saying it was to big. It was only a minute long.
Mac Mini 1.42 8X DVD+-RW Dual Layer 24X CD-RW 250 Gig Ministack Version 2 Mac OS X (10.4.6) Apple Bluetooth keyboard 19" Nec VGA CRT Flat Screen 1 Gig Memory iSight

Make your recordings and then open the QuickTime movie.
Use the Share menu and choose the email small setting. You'll get an estimated file size in the dialog window.
Your viewers must have QuickTime 7 installed to view these files.

What tools should I use for Oracle Quoting enhancement?

Hi,
My company is using Oracle Application 11i (EBS) 11.5.10.
We want to do a small enhancement on Oracle Quoting (HTML not Oracle Form).
What tools and which version should I use?
Thanks!

Hi,
please ask this question on a an Oracle Apps forum here on OTN
Frank

What backend should be used?

well i m developing a card game in java.
i would like to know for saving the game settings like the cards and variables of the game what backend should i use. i want the application to be fully platform independent and also dont want to use any proprietory s/w like ms access.
should i store it in a txt/dat file or is there any such compatible db; not talking abt full fledged server kinda dbms like oracle or sql server. just a basic dbms s/w for a small need like this.
thanx

It really depends on the scope of the game. Will this be played on the web by many people at a time? Or is this more of a single player desktop app?
For a dbms MySQL is a free, easy to install and light weight solution. This is my usual go-to light weight dbms.
Outside of a database, one option is to serialize the objects that contain the states in which you want to save such as player info, card in players hand, and cards in the deck. You just need to make sure those classes implement the Serializable Interface. When the player saves or exits the game, the objects will be serialized saving their state. When the player is ready to start the game again you can deserialize those objects back into java objects on the stack with the same state they had when they were serialized.
Take a look at the "Serializable" class on the documentation page here [url http://download.oracle.com/javase/6/docs/api/index.html]http://download.oracle.com/javase/6/docs/api/index.html. It is in the Java.io package.
If you want a Java based DB that is super light wait (very little functionality), can be distributed with your game app, and completely platform independent you can take a look at SmallSQL [url http://www.smallsql.de/]http://www.smallsql.de/. I have not used this one myself but it might do the job you are looking for as well.
Again, choosing between a DB and data file/serialized objects as well as choosing which DB you should use will depend on the scope of the game. If you are hosting the game, a DB like MySQL will work great. If it is a desktop app than serialization of object or distributing the SmallSQL java DB with you app might be the better choice.
