Automatically working out the domain for a cookie
Hi all
We have a couple of web sites that we want to share cookies between
we have one site www.mysite.com and another, registration.mysite.com
If, when I add a cookie and hardcode the domain to '.mysite.com' everything
works fine. However I would like to dynamically work out the domain because
we deploy our sites within a number of countries and i dont want to hardcode
the domain name (eg uk would be www.mysite.co.uk, so the domain would be
.mysite.co.uk )
If someone enters www.mysite.com/request.jsp i want to be able to extract
.mysite.com out of the url and specify it as the domain when adding cookies.
Does anyone know of any servlet related methods that can get the url that
was requested - including the server name?
request.getServerName() wont work because it returns the machine name (ie
the name of your machine within a network). request.getRequestUrl() also
wont work for the same reason.
If anyone knows how i would extract the url the user typed in then that
would be great
Thanks

Hi
After Some googling I could find out this for you. I think it is a bug with IE.

The idea is to use a virutal host.

I updated my iPad os and now my iBooks app automatically closes as soon as I enter and none of my books are on it.
Do a hard reset ie hold the power and home buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears (ignore the red slider).

i think this problem startedafter some online installations . there is a black window appearing everytime i open it. I tried reinstalling firefox but i dint want to lose any of ma plugins so during reinstallation i kept ma plugins. And the problem still exists.
The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
To Reset Firefox do the following:
#Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
#Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
#Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
#Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.

I just got this MacBook and it is refurbished. Yesterday, I went to put music CDs into iTunes, and it wouldn't even read that I put in a CD. About 15 to 20 seconds later, it spit it back out. I tried several CDs and it did the same to all of them. I also tried a DVD and a computer disk and they both were read and worked. Only a CD won't be read. What do I need to do?
Take it to an Apple store or AASP.

My four year old iMac is running much slower than when it was new. Does anyone have any suggestions on what I can do to "clean it up" and get it running like it used to?
What year, screen size, CPU speed and amount of RAM installed?
To find out info about your system,
Click on the Apple symbol in the upper left of the OS X main menu bar. A drop down menu appears.
Click About this Mac. A smaller popup window appears. This gives you basic info like what version of OS X your iMac is running, the speed of your iMac's CPU and how much RAM is installed.
Click on the button that says More Info. A larger window appears giving you a complete overview of your iMac's hardware specs.
Highlight all of this info and copy/paste all of this into another reply to this post, editing out your iMac's serial number before actually posting the reply.
This will tell us everything about your iMac so we may begin to help with your iMac issues.
How full is your Mac's hard drive?
Locate your iMac's hard drive icon on the OS X desktop. Click the icon once, then use the keyboard key combination Command-I. This will give you additonal info about your iMac's internal hard drive.
Post this info in your reply here, also.
Here are some general tips to keep your Mac's hard drive trim and slim as possible
You should never, EVER let a conputer hard drive get completely full, EVER!
With Macs and OS X, you shouldn't let the hard drive get below 15 GBs or less of free data space.
If it does, it's time for some hard drive housecleaning.
Follow some of my tips for cleaning out, deleting and archiving data from your Mac's internal hard drive.
Have you emptied your Mac's Trash icon in the Dock?
If you use iPhoto, iPhoto has its own trash that needs to be emptied, also.
If you store images in other locations other than iPhoto, then you will have to weed through these to determine what to archive and what to delete.
If you use Apple Mail app, Apple Mail also has its own trash area that needs to be emptied, too!
Delete any old or no longer needed emails and/or archive to disc, flash drives or external hard drive, older emails you want to save.
Look through your other Mailboxes and other Mail categories to see If there is other mail you can archive and/or delete.
STAY AWAY FROM DELETING ANY FILES FROM OS X SYSTEM FOLDER!
Look through your Documents folder and delete any type of old useless type files like "Read Me" type files.
Again, archive to disc, flash drives, ext. hard drives or delete any old documents you no longer use or immediately need.
Look in your Applications folder, if you have applications you haven't used in a long time, if the app doesn't have a dedicated uninstaller, then you can simply drag it into the OS X Trash icon. IF the application has an uninstaller app, then use it to completely delete the app from your Mac.
To find other large files, download an app called Omni Disk Sweeper.
Download an app called OnyX for your version of OS X.
When you install and launch it, let it do its initial automatic tests, then go to the cleaning and maintenance tabs and run the maintenance tabs that let OnyX clean out all web browser cache files, web browser histories, system cache files, delete old error log files.
Typically, iTunes and iPhoto libraries are the biggest users of HD space.
move these files/data off of your internal drive to the external hard drive and deleted off of the internal hard drive.
If you have any other large folders of personal data or projects, these should be archived or moved, also, to the optical discs, flash drives or external hard drive and then either archived to disc and/or deleted off your internal hard drive.
Good Luck! -

Windows automatically ejects my OS X disc; unable to install drivers
I've just installed Windows XP using Boot Camp. I've successfully gotten through the installation and am able to start and run Windows. I'm at the part where I'm supposed to insert the OS X disc so that drivers can be installed. However, whenever I insert the disc, after several seconds it's automatically ejected.
The disc is a 10.5.4 retail copy. I've also tried using the Snow Leopard update disc, since I didn't know if that included the drivers, too, but that disc is also automatically ejected. I do not have access to the OS X disc that came with the computer, but 10.5.4 is newer than what came with this particular computer (a 15.4" MBP bought in Feb. 2008, about a month before the last revision of non-unibody laptops were rolled out).
I have successfully installed Windows XP (from the same Windows XP CD) on this same computer in the past, using, I'm very certain, the same 10.5.4 retail OS X disc to install the drivers. I'm not sure why it's not working this time, if it's a problem with the disc, the drive, or something else. I understand that Apple doesn't really provide a method to get those drivers other than installing them from the OS X disc. So I'm at a bit of a loss on how to proceed.
I do have the OS X disc and it is readable in OS X itself. Is it possible, perhaps, to copy the appropriate files from the disc, while in OS X, onto the Windows partition, so that I can reboot into Windows and update the drivers from the copied files rather than from the OS X disc? If so, what do I need to copy from the OS X disc?
Or is there some other workaround I should try first?
Message was edited by: Justin J. Rebbert (Clarifying problem in subject)I too am having this issue. I originally installed Vista using Boot Camp and used the OSX install disc that came with my Macbook Pro to install the Apple drivers.
I just removed the partition last night and have now installed Windows 7 using boot camp. I can read the disc on my regular PC just fine - but Windows on my Mac keeps on ejecting the disc.
However, I have had huge problems with this Macbook disc drive. I think the disc drive is the sole reason that I would never purchase another mac. I hate it. It's noisy and unreliable. I constantly have to share disc drives off of other computers to run discs. -

Help! How can I take out the mini-disc stuck in mac?
Help! How can I take out the mini-disc stuck in mac?
I insert it into the mac, but the OS cannot load the disc and the disc cannot be ejected even i pressed the "eject" button.This happened to a family members macbookpro. A mini-cd inserted, couldn't be mounted or ejected by the drive.
I cut a rectangle from a cereal box about two inches wide and 6 inches long. Abour an inch and half from one end in the middle I cut a notch and bent it down a little.

I then inserted it slowly into the drive notch down and slowly pulled out. I did this few times and caught the mimi-cd and removed it. The drive has worked flawlessly for several years
A few days after this happened I was in BestBuy and an Apple rep was there displaying new Apple products. I asked him about it and he said they have a tool that ***** it out. -
SuperDrive automatically ejects blank DL DVDs (which worked before)
Hi. I'm going to repost here something I (incorrectly) posted on the iMac G4 thread (just in case it's a hardware related issue, which I don't think it is).
Anyway, I usually burn a "Bulkpaq DVD+R DL 2.4x 8.5GB" every month or so with my iMac. It's been ok until the last time I tried: the blank DVD is now automatically ejected from the computer a few seconds after I insert it.
I've read other people's threads asking about this same problem, and it is usually a media problem (testing with some other branch usually does the trick).
However, in my case, it cannot be the media (or, at least, it cannot be just the media) because I usually buy them in 25 unit packs, and all previous units from the current pack (6) worked, but now none of the remaining DL-DVDs (19 of them) do work anymore.
So... it could be that somehow the extreme hot in my room has ruined the remaining blank DL-DVDs however, since I recently upgraded from 10.5.6 to 10.5.7, I would blame the software upgrade. What do you think?
It could also be a hardware problem, but I still can burn other media (I haven't tested with other DL DVDs, but I have just burnt some CDs and single layer DVDs and they do work).
In some other thread, they have already explained me how to "revert" to 10.5.6 (basically do a fresh install on an external HD and then update up to 10.5.6), and I will try this later this week.
In the mean time, I would like to know if the "revert" process is worth the time. Mainly because the 10.5.7 changelog (here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3397) does not say anything about the SuperDrive.
Also, any other idea would be highly appreciated
Thanks.Ups... I some how missed this other thread here: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1644860&tstart=0 where they are experiencing this same problem.
Could anyone please remove my thread?
Sorry for the inconvenience. -

I burned photos to a CD-R and the CD-R automatically ejected. The photos are now on the CD-R. Now I keep getting an error message that says to complete the burn before I can quit iPhoto. I can not shut down the computer until iphoto shuts down.
Hit Command + Option + esc on your keyboard and force quit iPhoto. I'm sure it just got stuck talking to your optical drive.
Hope it helped -
When I insert an audio CD into my iMac, it automatically starts playing
When I insert an audio CD into my iMac, it automatically starts playing, and I can't figure out why, nor how to stop this behavior. When I click in the upper right corner of my screen where it says "Finder", it shows the Finder as the only application running, and yet SOMETHING must be causing the CD to play. If it is an Extension that is being loaded, is it possible to terminate the Extensions one by one without restarting the computer to see which one is playing the CD?
Is the OS9.1 operating system supposed to automatically play audio CD's when they are inserted into the iMac? Or could it be an Extension that is doing it?And if so, why is no means provided to actually CONTROL the playing of the CD (such as a control panel with PLAY, STOP, SKIP, etc. buttons)?
On a PC, I can press Control/Alt/Delete to bring up the "Task List" that will show me ALL applications and processes currently running, and then terminate apps and processes one by one without having to restart the computer to see which one is playing the CD. Is there an equivalent way to display this information on an iMac that will show me which application or process or extension might be causing the audio CD to play, and allow me to terminate them one by one without restarting the computer until I can see which one is the "problem"?
JerryHi, Jerry -
Welcome to Apple's Discussions.
Finder uses QuickTime in the background to do that, hence no specific app is shown in the Application menu (the far right item in the main menu bar) in addition to Finder.
To unset automatic playing of CDs (and DVDs) -
Open the QuickTime Settings control panel (Apple menu > Control Panels > QuickTime Settings).
In that control panel, select AutoPlay from the pulldown menu in the control panel. Uncheck both the items shown in the new window. Close the control panel.
No restart should be needed in order to make the change effective.
Doing this will also guard against the (now ancient) AutoPlay virus, which could still be lurking somewhere on the net.
