Why doesn't my media player work

media on my laptop dosen;t work

Seems to me, you have not attached any receiver to the sequencer's transmitter. How a sequencer will generate a sound, it is required to be attaced to a Synthesizer. Try do something like following in your starting code:
try {
sequencer = MidiSystem.getSequencer();
sequencer.open();
sequencer.addMetaEventListener(this);
// similarly you have to obtain a synthesizer
synthesizer = MidiSystem.getSynthesizer();
synthesizer.open();
// now wire a synthesizer to a sequencer
sequencer.getTransmitter().setReceiver(synthesizer.getReceiver());
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
Regards.

Why doesn't my flash player work?

I installed the Flash Player from Adobe, the message said it was successful. When it went to the Adobe page, it went black. I checked the control panel and it showed it as installed. When I tried it on Jib Jab, I could not see the video. It works on Google Chrome but not on Internet Explorer. I upgraded to IE 10 and that did not help either. I checked Norton and shut off the Antivirus, then did the Adobe debugging, and tried several times. Nothing seems to work. It seems like it installs but does not initiate.

Did you copy and paste that from your response in '08? Or maybe it was '07?
I wonder if I could apply this to other technologies...
Radio after tv invention:
The drop in Radio only programs, and increase in TV shows in such a short period of time has been staggering. As other programs move on without Radio, since it's signal band is no longer being updated, it will become something akin to the telegraph...if it hasn't already.
Boats after car invention:
The drop in Boat only shipping, and increase in shipping methods that are vehicle friendly in such a short period of time has been staggering. As other companies move on without boats, since they are no longer building new channels, it will become something akin to the horse and buggy...if it hasn't already.
etc etc...
See you in 6 more years.

Why can't JavaFx media player play .m4a file on windows xp sp3?

Hi All
Why can't JavaFx media player play .m4a file on windows xp sp3? I got an exception that 'Decoder is not available' when I played m4a file on windows xp sp3(it didn't work on vista either), but it works fine on windows 7 , so I guess Javafx media player needs some system dependencies or resources when it plays media files, do you have any suggestions for this ?

To allow playback on Windows XP, you need to install the correct software in addition to JavaFX.
Once the system has been upgraded to meet the minimum requirements for playback of a particular type of video encoding, then playback should work fine.
See the JavaFX Media portion of the JavaFX 2.2 System Requirements:
http://docs.oracle.com/javafx/2/system_requirements_2-2/jfxpub-system_requirements_2-2.htm
Note, m4a is just a container file and data streams inside the container format need to match a supported JavaFX format for playback to work:
http://docs.oracle.com/javafx/2/api/javafx/scene/media/package-summary.html
Some approaches you could take:
- additionally encode the media in VP6 format and fallback to VP6 playback if H.264 playback fails.
- use a 3rd party player like VLC.
- don't bother supporting Windows XP video playback.
- direct a browser to a divx install page if playback fails (http://www.divx.com/).

Why Doesn't the XIRR function work?

In Excel if you have 5 records from a1:b5 then XIRR looks like this:
XIRR(A1:A5, B1:B5) you get a nice neat answer like .35
Here is a version that works in Crystal that would require manual entry of any new quarters numbers and dates-- and if you plug this into Crystal it works:
(XIRR([1000000,-100000,-100000,-100000,-100000,10277.49,-100000], [DateValue(1999,2,1),DateValue(1999,3,1),DateValue(1999,6,1), DateValue(1999,12,1),DateValue(2000,3,1),DateValue(2000,6,1),DateValue(2000,9,1)]))*.100
You do get a nice answer of something like .035. But this is all done manually and I need it to function automatically when the report is refreshed.
So you have a range for the currency and a range for the date fields. I need to simulate this in crystal. Crystal has an XIRR function, and with the arrays, I should be able to fill in the range, but am having difficulty getting it to work.
After building the arrays, I made another formula to combine the arrays in the XIRR formula.
I am down to this error now after getting this formula this far --
"Numerical method did not converge; try another value for guess."
Here's where I am with the formula, although they don't want to use the guess part of the XIRR function - they just want to use the XIRR(number/currency, date). Maybe you could pass this on too?:
/{@Reset} for the group header (NOT using a repeated group header):
whileprintingrecords;
numbervar array x := 0;
datevar array y := date(0,0,0);
numbervar i := 0;
numbervar j := 0;
//{@accum} for the detail section:
whileprintingrecords;
numbervar array x;
datevar array y;
numbervar i := i + 1;
numbervar j := count({table.groupfield},{table.groupfield});
if i <= j then (
redim preserve x[j];
redim preserve y[j];
x<i> := tonumber({table.currency});
y<i> := datevalue({table.datetime})
//{@xirr calc} to be placed in the group footer:
whileprintingrecords;
numbervar array x;
datevar array y;
xirr(x,y)
The array works correctly. So why do I get that error and why doesn't the XIRR formula work like they say it should? Has anyone used this successfully in Crystal--maybe you could shed some light?
Thanks!

Hi,
I am receiving that same error when the last item in the array is 0, otherwise all works perfectly.
When I run the same group of numbers and dates in Excel it returns without issue.
-265500.00,-690000.00,-570000.00,16814.25,-855000.00,-619500.00,55293.46,30411.40,15183.76, 0.00

=XIRR(A2:J2,A1:J1,-0.1)
Is there a known bug in Crystal's XIRR function when the last value is 0?
Or a hot-fix that will repair this?
Thanks in advance,
Gary
PS. I am using Crystal XI Product Version: 11.0.0.2495

Why doesn't my VGA adapter work to connect my iPad2 to my projector. I haven't had any problems in the past?

Why doesn't my VGA adapter work to connect my iPad2 to my projector. I haven't had any problems in the past?

Hey MarieF-D,
Thanks for the question. The following article provides basic troubleshooting steps that may help to resolve your issue:
iOS: About Apple Digital AV Adapters
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4108
Troubleshooting
If you encounter an issue using the Apple Digital AV Adapter or VGA Adapter:
Disconnect and reconnect the adapter from the iOS device and display.
Connect directly to the TV, projector, or external display using a known-good VGA or HDMI cable.
Remove any VGA or HDMI extension cables or converters.
Note that accessories that convert a VGA or HDMI signal to other video formats (DVI, Composite, Component) are not supported.
Ensure that you are using the latest version of iOS. Some Apple Digital AV Adapters require iOS 5.1 or later.
Note: When using an Apple Digital AV Adapter manufactured before early 2012 with iPad (3rd generation), you may see the "This accessory is not supported" alert. Dismissing the alert will allow you to use the adapter.
For optimal performance, you may need to adjust the video resolution or settings for your display. If your display offers an "auto detect" or "factory default" setting, you may be able to use these options to optimize video resolution and display.
Thanks,
Matt M.

Lost my iPhone and why doesn't find my iPhone work

Lost my iPhone and why doesn't find my iPhone work

A friendly reminder: In order to use Find My IPhone Successfully, you need to 1. Turn on Location Services, 2. Lock Location Services (Using Restrictions in Settings, General, Restrictions) so that if some one else finds your IPhone, they can NOT turn off Find My IPhone And/Or Location Services itself! 3. Add your Mobile Me and/Or ICloud Account to your IPhone. 4. Lock Accounts (Again in Restrictions) from being changed or Deleted so that your Mobile Me And/OR ICloud Account can NOT be Deleted! 5. Look Up the Location of your IPhone Before Suspending Service to the IPhone, NOT after Suspending Service (simple common since applies here as well).

Why doesn't my duplicate frame work in photoshop 2014?

why doesn't my duplicate frame work in photoshop 2014?
I draw a figure in frame 0 then duplicate frame. After the frame is duplicated I move the figure over to make sure there are different frames but as soon as I check the first frame Ive noticed that both frames have moved together. So nothing has changed. Why?

I always create the individual frames in layer groups first. So build what you need, break them up or duplicate them, position them where you want them and then create your frames by turning off all the layer groups or layers you don't need.
Here is an example of one of my layer pallets:
Each scene is a frame and I turn them on and off as I need them.

Media Player works in FF, but not in IE. WHY?

I have placed video file on my home page, and the file works fine with firefox but not in internet explorer. I am not sure why, or how to fix the problem. Also, when I insert the media. I am inserting a plug-in and not dragging a media player object. When I drag, I never get mime, object/embed or class options stately. However, when I insert a plug-in, I get all of those options.
Also, I have been able to view video files only once in IE, and on that time when I looked at the inspector at the window media player, I noticed that it actually stated Windows Media Player as the player (the operation write-in words directly below classid pull down box. The same area where the clss write-in appears after it is chosen)
At this time, it states NONE for player chosen.
Also, I normally use FF as my browser and in the program I only see FF logos for html files --- would it work differently if the program recognized IE only?

I think I figured it out. Looks like the size of the XML file
returned is a factor. I validated my XML file (
http://www.w3schools.com/dom/dom_validate.asp)
to be error free. Then I decided to just show a set of names that
have "chris". EUREKA! The autosuggest worked with a smaller XML
dataset. Then I put the rest of the data back and the autosuggest
stopped working. But Firefox has no problems. Only IE.
There are 569 records in my xml file. Sample record:
<employee username="cchin">Christopher
Chin</employee>
Any thoughts?
Thanks!

Why doesn't the CC app work properly?

I've been using Creative Cloud for some time now and am really loving it, however I must say it is a source of annoyance that the Creative Cloud app just doesn't work properly.
Firstly, I used it initially to download all my apps, then after an update those apps no longer appeared in the "Apps" list. Now only those that have been installed since that update appear in this list. Why doesn't the "Apps" list display all of the Adobe CC apps that I have installed on my computer?
Why does it keep reinstalling fonts? I'm always getting "Lush Script Regular" and other fonts being added.
It regularly comes up telling me that Dreamweaver and Premiere Pro need to be updated, but always I get an error, then the update request disappears.
I'm regularly getting 4 files that it can't sync - even though they are the same files as others in the folder. If nothing else, why can't I say "Great, got the message". Also, why is the error message just "due to server error" with no advice on how to resolve it? Why is there a server error on only these 4 files?
It seems to me there are still some teething issues with the CC app, but what I don't understand is why they aren't being resolved much faster, given that this is the portal to the service.
Of course, given Adobe I doubt I'll get satisfactory answers – a little jaded with their responses. Anyway, thought I'd at least post the questions.

Questapo I am sorry you have been facing difficulties with your Creative Cloud experience. I don't believe it will be possible to address all of your concerns in one discussion. I would not be surprised if at least three of the issues are related to the same root cause.
First in order for the applications to be visible are you regularly needing to delete the OPM.db file? You can find this listed as solution 2 in CC desktop lists applications as "Up to Date" when not installed - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/aam-lists-removed-apps-date.html.
