Windows client other than Sunbird / Lightning? (because they don't work)
After testing Sunbird + Lightning for a day, it has become clear, that neither software is ready for productive use. There are two major show-stoppers:
- Calendars set to read-only become read-write again after restart of the calendar client (*)
- Constant nagging about a username + password for "http://servername:8008" "/Search". This happens all the time, sometimes 15 times in a row while using Sunbird or Lightning and upon quitting Thunderbird (eventually leading to Thunderbird crashing)
So my question: are there any other Windows Clients that support CalDav? We need something that doesn't have an integrated e-mail client because it's company policy to use Thunderbird.

* We tried the sandboxed add-on that's supposed to fix this - to no avail.
+I'm afraid the developers haven't realized yet that this bug is a major show-stopper for any kind of business use.+
+Perhaps it'd be good if others, too, would contact the Sunbird developers team and point out that fact to them.+
If this is a major show stopper for your business, consider contracting for a fix. Pay somebody to find and fix the bug, and to then contribute the fix. If you don't want to do the work and contribute the fix (skills, local corporate policies, lack of access into the source pool, etc), then dangle some money publicly. Post a reward or a bounty for the fix. You could post part of the savings over a commercial purchase of a similar mail client, for instance, and see if you can move Sunbird and Lightning forward here.
This bounty works akin to tipping the bellman and the porter and other folks that provide you services. It changes your whole experience. Positively. In the world of open source -- just like in the commercial world -- money is how you prioritize the bugs.

I don’t know why but I create a WEB site and my friends who use a pc windows, have a lot of trouble when they open my movies. The other friends who use Apple, they don’t have problem. I have iMovie11 and my extension file is .m4v. Is it because the extension .m4v is bad for windows ?
No web site expert here but I would suggest changing the .m4v to .mp4 and ask one of those friends if they still have problems. .m4v is something I always associate with iTunes and don't really see it used elsewhere.

How to create a window with its own window border other than the local system window border?
How to create a window with its own window border other than the local system window border?
For example, a border: a black line with a width 1 and then a transparent line with a width 5. Further inner, it is the content pane.
In JavaSE, there seems to have the paintComponent() method for the JFrame to realize the effect.Not sure why your code is doing that. I usually use an ObjectProperty<Point2D> to hold the initial coordinates of the mouse press, and set it to null on a mouse release. That seems to avoid the dragging being confused by mouse interaction with other nodes.

primarily using the ipad air as an art portfolio but photos i upload in order get rearranged. other than changing the date they were shot, is there any solution to this? can they be reorganized in iphoto on the ipad?
You are welcome.
Sorting and organizing photos on IOS devices is one of the things that really need to be improved. It looks like the developers simply did not expect the users to want to keep large photo libraries on an IOS device, where the ordering would matter. I'd send feedback to the developer team, so that they see, what the users want and need:
You can use this form: Apple - iPhoto - Feedback -

I have IPhone 5. Songs on phone do not match songs in my itunes library. Can't get rid of songs on phone because they don't show up in library.
Hi there,
It sounds like you may need to hide these purchases in the iTunes Store in order to prevent them from displaying on the Apple TV. Take a look at the article below for more information.

Thanks Matthew.Hello,
The services you listed in your post will require a data plan which is provisioned by your wireless provider. You may want to contact your wireless provider to see if you have the correct plan.
Cheers,

I rely heavily on my earphones because well... I'm lazy but they don't work. They work on my friend's iPhone who hasn't updated yet but I've updayed and the mic and volume buttons don't work. Please make a correct update!
Nope, still same problem. I did an install, didn't work. Then I completely removed my IDT driver, restarted, installed the driver, restarted, same problem.
When I troubleshoot my audio it always asks me which one to troubleshoot. It only works if I do one of the "Speakers / HP - IDT" but I don't know why it has so many devices listed with the same name.
Also, after I troubleshoot and I can hear audio, if I go to "Manage audio devices" it still shows that no audio device is installed, which is why the webinars won't work. -
I had my Ipod nano 7th Gen factory restored. Nano touch works smooth without any song in-it but after i have any of the songs shifted from itunes, touch buttons get messed up. They don't work. Help me in over coming this issue.
Hello Rohantm,
Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with your iPod nano (7th generation) touch screen. I recommend the following steps for the issue you described (you can skip the steps you have already tried):
Touch screen does not accept input
Clean the screen with a microfiber polishing cloth.
Do not wear gloves while using the touchscreen. Do not use the touchscreen with wet hands or immediately after applying hand lotion. Moisture affects touchscreen behavior in the same manner as it affects a trackpad.
If you have a protective plastic sheet or film on the touchscreen, try removing it, because it may be preventing the touchscreen from working properly.
The current application may be unresponsive; try resetting iPod by pressing and holding the Sleep/Wake button and the Home buttons simultaneously for a least six seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
Sync with iTunes and restore the iPod.
Issue not resolved
If the issue is still not resolved, please read this information on servicing your iPod.

My i Pad 3 shows "cannot Access Find My Friends open the app and review your sign in information to continue sharing your location. And I have two buttons : Later and Open but they don't work. As long as I have this screen situation, I cann't do anything on my I Pad. Please help !!
I have the same problem on my iPhone4. It is obviously a bug in the software. Once it pops out I am locked out of my phone. I can't even begin to describe the frustration this causes. All that stuff about holding down the buttons is useless. the phone won't even shut off. I can take a screen shot like that or go to voice control. Even when I got to a wifi connection, I can't get on. This app blocks everything else. This is a serious bug and can have serious consequences. The only thing my phone would do is go to voice control and let me play iTunes or phone people. Some smart phone hey?
I have finally got to a place with a wide enough wifi to connect my computer and restore the phone. This has lasted over a day!
I don't even know why Find My Friends is on my phone. Is it part of the package and how do I turn it off? -
My macbook air will not connect to the internet due to a self assigned IP address. I have tried trawling the support forums for hours, but either I can't understand the suggestions, or they don't work. Please explain to me in simplest terms how I can fix this. Many thanks!
The warranty entitles you to complimentary phone support for the first 90 days of ownership.
If you bought the product in the U.S. directly from Apple (not from a reseller), you have 14 days from the date of delivery in which to exchange or return it for a refund. In other countries, the return policy may be different. If you bought from a reseller, its return policy applies. -
