Which OS is best alternative to windows embedded ?

Hi
I am looking for a suitable OS for my application. The app. will be deployed in industry or POS. The only requirement is that it must support multiple screens, thus it should support modern graphiccards. the application now runs on windows embedded (and it works quite good, thanks JavaFX!). I also tried Ubuntu, I am very new to linux, but I already faced problems during installation because Ubuntu seems to have problems with newer NVidia graphiccards.
What Linux compilation focuses best for a JavaFX application with rich multimedia support and nothing else?

i currently use vista but i think that it is a pain
in the butt. i want to use either linux or solaris
(which is better). but i don't know if it would
hinder my use of java are other os as good at running
java a widow os's.I am currently using Vista (machine has XP/Vista). I am new to Java Programming but I know computers wise hardware and software just not programming. I have also use Gentoo in the past. Is much cleaner and less lag. Overall I am back in Vista for now. :)
I just did a quick search don't know if the link is correct,

Repartition and format the drive for a Mac:
Drive Preparation
1. Open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder.
2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. 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.

Which is the best suitable version of internet explorer for windows 7 ultimate 32 bit

which is the best suitable version of internet explorer for windows 7 ultimate 32 bit

Hi,
Yes, Internet Explorer 11 is now available for Windows 7. It's the latest version of Internet Explorer for Windows 7. It's more smooth, stable and fast.
IF you have some incompatible website, you also could use compatible view to load.

Anyone heard about Windows Embedded POSReady 7 Pro?

Has anyone heard about Windows Embedded POSReady 7 Pro? We manufacture ATMs and were forced to switch from Windows Embedded POSReady 7 to Windows 7 Professional FES last year due to changes in the additional terms (ATs) which stated that
POSReady 7 (without the "Pro"-suffix) must not be used with ATMs.
Since then we started implementing OA 2.1, for being able to activate our machines automatically and had to inform all our customers that we now have to buy more expensive licenses with reduced functionality (no BitLocker in Win7Prof, no Embedded Enabling
Features, no LP support, etc.).
Last week I found a very interesting EULA on MyOEM.microsoft.com for the new OS-variant "Windows Embedded POSReady 7 Pro", which suddenly is allowed on ATMs explicitly:
2. ADDITIONAL LICENSING REQUIREMENTS AND/OR USE RIGHTS
a. Specific Use. You may use the software on a device with automated teller machine (“ATM”) as the primary functionality.
See
https://myoem.microsoft.com/oem/myoem/en/topics/Licensing/emblicres/Pages/DP-WinEmbPOSReady7ProEULA.aspx for details.
Our distributor supported us and already found the ATs for Windows Embedded POSReady 7 Pro, but was also surprised that Microsoft introduced this new variant.
Does anybody know more about it?
Where can we (indirect embedded OEM, who purchases through distribution) get such relevant information earlier? ( The only source of information I know is the MyOEM-portal) And why did Microsoft release the new variant now?
Best regards, Roman Maier

I have never heard of a Pro version for POSReady 7. It is not listed in the life cycle:
https://www.microsoft.com/windowsembedded/en-us/product-lifecycles.aspx
Nor is there a download for it:
https://www.microsoft.com/windowsembedded/en-us/downloads.aspx
Sounds like someone is doing some funny business. The successor to POSReady 7 is Windows Embedded 8.x Industry, which comes in two flavors - Pro and Enterprise.

I cannot get iDVD, what is the best alternative app to enable me to burn my projects to DVD?

I cannot get iDVD, what is the best alternative app to enable me to burn my iMovie projects to DVD? why do Apple think that no one needs to burn DVDs?

Why is there no iDVD on my new Mac?
Apple insists that the entire world has access to fast broadband (and are prepared to pay for the considerable bandwidth usage) and wants to distribute home movies to friends and relatives via download (iCloud, YouTube, Facebook, whatever) rather than mailing them a DVD. The fact that in reality not all users do, has so far had no effect on this policy. If you scream and shout loudly enough down the phone Apple may send you a free copy of iDVD. Stating that they would return their brand new Mac unless they received a copy of iDVD worked for some, but that is now said to have been withdrawn by Apple. Also, you can complain bitterly here, perhaps suggesting that Apple could have provided a choice between burning DVDs and distributing home movies by other means:
http://www.apple.com/feedback/
Whilst Macs with a Superdrive continue to be able to burn video DVDs, the software for so doing, iDVD, is no longer included in the iLife bundle that comes with OS 10.7 Lion (which also omitted iWeb) or will come with OS 10.8 Mountain Lion. And it is no longer included in the iLife 11 from the online Apple Store: http://www.apple.com/ilife/. Your only solution is to look on Amazon or eBay and try to get an older version that includes iDVD 7, i.e. iLife version 9 onwards. You should also do this if you plan to buy a new Mac anytime soon, as stocks of iLife that include iDVD will not be available for ever.
However, the vastly more expensive FCPX can burn a DVD without iDVD or DVD Studio Pro involvement, but lack the themes etc of iDVD. Also, of course, there is Roxio Toast, which is the best software for burning anything but again does not offer the flexibility of iDVD.
And if you think Microsoft are any better, their new Windows 8 operating system will not play DVDs, or burn them, unless customers buy an extra upgrade, the company has announced: http://www.gizmag.com/windows-8-no-dvd-playback/22443/
In other words, computer manufacturers have declared optical media as dead, long before consumers are ready to stop using them, which is fine as long as they offered us a choice, but they won’t even do that. Flexibility and intuitive use of a computer seems to be a thing of the past.

Can Adobe Flash Player support Microsoft Windows Embedded 8 version?

Flash Player seems still have bugs on Microsoft Windows Embedded 8.
Does any one know which flash player version is fully support WES8?

The Windows IE plugin is modified by Microsoft. Adobe writes the code, but once it goes in the browser, it's Microsoft's baby. It cannot be updated or replaced here unless you remove a specific Windows 8 update KB patch.
It IS fully supported but IE11 has been a "rolling train wreck" since it was released. The pages can't recognize the browser, so they don't recognize any of the plugins, like Flash Player. So far, Microsoft has made NO indication that they have any plan to fix it soon.
Microsoft's recommendation is to use Compatibility View for affected pages, and "pretend" you're using an different browser. Trouble with that is it has seen limited success at best, and you have to individually enable it for EVERY page that has problems.
I'm not big on "pretending" so I recommend actually using another browser.
Firefox (from Mozilla)
Opera (from Opera)
Safari (from Apple)
Chrome (from Google)
ANY of those will work where IE11 won't, with the Flash Player Plug-in (For all other browsers), and Chrome doesn't even need that because it has its own Flash Player plugin built in.

For unknown reason, why would I be getting many new re-directs to Ads via FiuneDeaalSuoft which seem to come through Microsoft Windows webpages?

A program from FiuneDeaalSuoft somehow appeared in my Firefox Add-0ns as of 2 days ago (08212014) according to Control Panel-Programs. I don't recognize it, but possibly I mistakenly clicked on an acceptance interface without realizing it. The ad re-directs which it caused were onerous and invasive. The re-directs first started appearing when I received a message advising me to update some other programs. I have a list of most of them. It seemed to start I went onto a Windows web page, for Windows Live Movie Maker,
< http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-live/movie-maker-file-types-faq?wlexpid=FC1B09C67C184525852C59C15A0F465E >
which had 3 block ads at the top from FiuneDeaalSuoft. The links for those three ads were:
< Microsoft.iYogi.com > phone 855-558-2498,
< Microsoft-Windows.iYogi.com > phone 855-558-2498, and
< Microsoft-Support.pchelpdesk.co > with no phone showing in my screenshot of the ad but it is probably the same as given later herein, 855-677-5531.
I removed the FiuneDeaalSuoft program from Add-ons, but I still seem to be getting some pop-ups and re-directs. Looking in Control Panel, I see that the program name is slightly different: FuineDealSOfti from FineDealSofT. This program was extremely aggressive and persistent. In Control Panel, I see other programs which I am also concerned about. IDT Audio from IDT has been on my computer a while, but I can't remember much about it. Pinger from Pinger, Inc. shows that it was installed in Dec. 2013 before I bought the computer. WidgetServ 1.0 from Softomate, LLC. is through Firefox. WinSpeed from 24soft installed in April 2014 is another program which I don't know much about. Can anyone offer further analysis and review or comment of any of these programs, please, with advice as to whether you have found them useful or problematic?
The software from FiuneDeaalSuoft will be uninstalled from Control Panel since I am convinced that it is very invasive and a lot of trouble. An Install Manager from dwnllistsoft.com was part of the pathway. It wanted to re-direct to < http://uhi.inureknittingrectrix.com >, which had code sections referring to < plh.tractionize.com >; < WhiteLabelBidRequestHandlerServlet >; < www.srv2trking.com >; < LTSanitizer.aspx >; and < www.ascentive.com >.
The original message seemed to be one which advised that "Video Update Recommended".
Another had the Firefox logo and advised that "You are currently browsing the web with Firefox and your Video Player might be outdated". The webpage address was:
< http://www.lpmxp2129.com /7655407A3F26415F243E342D4D472B54AE35515F1068A175E1CFD6181CD0B859E09383E5EAA7EDFE90932B3B86A7E9D8?tgu_src_lp_domain=
www.dnwyoursoft.com&ClickID=426139843&PubID=1258 > (which could have a small editing error).
A smaller front screen appeared as an overlay which said "Recommended" and then " You are currently browsing the web with Firefox and it is recommended that you update your video player to the fastest version available. Please update to continue."
Some other urls which appeared were:
< http://www.srv2trking.com/LTSanitizer.aspx?u=http%3a%2f%2fwww.ascentive.com%2frun%2fclick%2fSEC_CPA%2fgo%2fFFTV%3fc1%3d08_107761803_ed31ad73-fc16-40f5-9cad-cccc044ea1f4

which offered a Windows 8 update with a small front screen overlay message saying "WARNING! Please Install Update To Continue." while the main screen had a message that it was a "Windows 8 Update" with the admonition that "You are currently using - Windows 8 - which is now outdated... Please install the latest update to enhance your computer's security and performance." (part of the window screen capture was missing the full text, so I had to guess part of the message);
(NOTE that the previous entry may have a disconnect between the url and actual screen, since i could not reproduce the result);
< http://pmptrk.com/t/o/12/ > was another redirect;
< http://updatingdriversnow.com/ujp1/?source=MG_EBT-RED&kw=ubid >
another which offered a Java Update (13?) which had a front screen "Java Recommended" and "It is recommended to have Java in order to proceed.";

appeared with a front screen overlay message saying "UPDATES RECOMMENDED! It is recommended that you install the software to ensure your browser is the latest version. Please update to continue.";
the previous link had "Transferring data from static.getclicky.com" in the bottom left corner of the screen;
another screen with url
< http://pckeeperapp.zeobit.com/land/7.13/index.php?affid=mzb_196.8233409.1408767556.2.mzb&utm_source=ldmpcts&utm_medium=popunder&utm_campaign=pck_ldmpcts_15aug_ff&utm_term=&utm_content=&userDefiner=mzb_2380&installer=&trt=33_22526071&alert=301&tid_ext=antivirus >
was very realistic (and for all I know is legitimate), showing a logo for PCKeeper, a front screen block titled "Important Message" with "Your PC Performance is Poor." and a "Fix Now" selector button;
the main screen of the previous url had the overhead title of "How to Fix The Windows 8.1 error" which is somewhat peculiar since "The" is capitalized while "error" is not;
also the previous screen had 1. a picture of an attractive smiling young man with a reference book titled "Microsoft Certified Technology Specialist", 2. several links for various PCKeeper options, and 3. at the bottom, block ads for AAA and alleged referrals from "The Wall Street Journal", "MAXIMUMPC", and "Business Wire" and 4. a warning that "You may be presented with an optional offer(s) during INSTALLATION" which was the link followed another link for "learn more";
< http://pchelpdesk.co/cp/support-for-microsoft.php?affiliate=63783-86_777 >
was a web page for pchelpdesk.co which gave a phone number of 855-677-5531 for "Instant Tech Support for Microsoft r-copyright Products by Expert Technician";
< http://techieschoice.com/l2/support-for-microsoft.php >
gave a phone number 855-677-9945 with another convincing webpage which even had several testimonials;

had the header "Recommended Download!" followed by "You are currently browsing on Chrome 35" and "Please Install the RECOMMENDED SOFTWARE -< which was the link > to Confirm You are Using the Recommended Version." along with other embedded links, options and disclaimers;
< http://landing.driverrestore.com/ldimp/02/en/?brand=Windows&subid=US|EN|windows*download >

I may have missed a couple or so urls, especially the intermediate transition urls, since they tended to change very quickly. Any of my screenshots are freely available if they can offer any further value.
Since you probably have too many emails and too few volunteers, I don't expect that anyone has time to send me a personal individual response, but a universal message or warning (if appropriate) to all users would be great. I am still uncertain if I am making this a bigger deal than it actually is.
Thanks to everyone at Firefox. It has been my favorite browser for a few years now.

Why do I have to use View Message Best alternative to view graphic?

Often in the last 3 years, back to when I was using Leopard, Mail messages would appear in my mailbox which obviously contained graphics or pictures but which didn't show up in the email. (There would be paperclip icon in the right column.)
By going to View>Message>Best Alternative I can get the picture to show up.
Why do I need to do this? I recall in earlier versions of Mail this never happened.
Is there a way in Mail Preferences to change that? I can't find any setting that relates to that.
I am using 10.7 Lion, I have Mail set to Classic Layout. Thanx.

Netflix determines which program their movies are to use. Firefox has no control over it.

Windows XP Pro

Try this software:
Firefox or IE7.
Go to these forums.
Search these forums.
This question is asked 1000 times a month. So try a search , honest it works. (Google has a few thousand answers as well).
Note DVD's are already encrypted, so you will be looking to decrypt them, then convert to MP4 for iPod..

What is the different between various version of windows embedded 8.1

Hi,
I found the following various Windows Embedded 8.1 OS names:
Windows Embedded 8.1 Industry
Windows Embedded 8.1 Industry Pro
Windows Embedded 8.1 Industry Enterprise
There is also some OS with "retail as its suffix.
Is there a comparison table to clarify the issue?
Thanks in advance
Avi Wertheimer

Really? Having been dragged kicking and screaming into the 8.1 Industry Pro nightmare.
I have 2 different product keys from oasign.
Windows(R) Embedded 8.1 Industry Pro (ESD)
Windows(R) Embedded 8.1 Industry Pro Retail (ESD)
It really is hard to tell which one I want since I have yet to find something laying out the differences.
Not helped by the fact that I need to have several of these in production next month -.-!

What is the future of windows embedded compact ?

as the architecture has changed totally on windows embedded phone 8, and there is windows 10 on ARM. so what is the future of this platform?

I don't believe Microsoft can let you know exactly. But it may be a good idea to move towards WPF for new applications developed as WPF has much greater capability, is more in line with above Windows 7 OS apps and even though more difficult to learn than
Windows.Forms is a move forward in developing UI's with much greater flexibility than Windows.Forms. Also nothing is being upgraded with regard to future development for Windows.Forms while apparently not the case with WPF (see bottom link).
Support for Windows Forms will end whenever Microsoft removes the capability from .Net Framework I suppose. As far as I know
Windows 10 supports Windows Forms applications because whatever .Net Framework comes installed on it supports Windows Forms applications.

Adobe Flash Player on Windows Embedded

Hi,
My company produces a software product used for training purposes. In addition to the software we also provide customers with standard desktop PC hardware with Windows installed on it. In order to comply with Windows distribution licensing we provide Windows Embedded rather than a professional edition of Windows (we satisfy the Embedded terms as the PCs are single purpose). As part of this product we'd like customers to be able to install the latest version of Adobe Flash Player on the system to access e-learning content they've paid a third party provider for which is in SWF format.
I note in the Flash Player license the phrase "You will not Use any Adobe Runtime on any non-PC device or with any embedded or device version of any operating system." Given that our PCs are very similar to a standard desktop PC, does this phrase still apply to us? If so, is it possible to obtain an exemption?
Regards,
Darrell

Hi Ani,
I can't see anywhere in the Adobe Flash Player FAQ that you linked that answers my question, can you point it out for me?
I'm not asking for the ability to distribute (I'm happy for the end user to install the latest flash player on the system themselves), and the distribution summary says:
Usage of Adobe Web Players is only permitted for supported platforms; usage rights on non-PC devices or embedded systems are not granted by this license.
which seems to disqualify my particular use case that I am asking about.
Darrell
