World at start up

I am new to this Mac Experience and far SO FREAKING GOOD today is my 5th day and I haven't sleep the way I should but I have a question.
Whenever I boot or reboot my computer an icon of a world flashing for almost a minute before I get the apple logo and then the machine starts, coming from windows I am used to waiting for my machine to star up, i was just wondering what that was.
I am using a MacMIni 1,66 Core Duo and 512 RAM

The flashing world icon at startup means the computer is looking for a network startup disk. You should open System Preferences -> Startup Disk and re-select your internal hard drive. This should shorten your startup times.

Blinking world at start up

I wanted to use Disk Warrior today on my internal hdd so I switched my start-up disk to my external hdd and tried to restart. I only get a blinking world icon on the screen. I tried to boot from the Disk Warrior cd as well as the OS 9 cd but no luck. I've used Disk Warrior before from the ext. hdd with no problem. Any thoughts?
Thanks in advance.

You're right. The world icon indicates that the imac was looking for a network drive.
Well, the situation is a non-issue for the moment. I wanted to use Disk Warrior to rebuild the internal hdd as a maintenance procedure, not out of necessity. So my main hdd is basically ok.
What I found was that if I just left the imac 'on' then after about 5-6 minutes the flashing world icon would disappear and a folder would appear with an alternating blinking question mark/faces icon. Then, after about another 5 minutes, the computer would go into boot-up mode using the internal hdd. I've done it twice and the computer has booted successfully both times.
What I still don't understand is why I can't boot from either the OS 9 cd or the Disk Warrior cd. The computer sees the OS 9 cd and its contents. And I can choose it from the Start-up Disk option in the Control Panel. I can't seem to load the Disk Warrior cd. I suspect that there may be a problem with the combo drive. But that'll be a question for another day.
Thanks anyway for the help.

Z10 app world not starting

Hi there. Same problem, my app world gets stuck on the screen with the circle. Have restarted, taken out battery and sim, no change
Solved!
Go to Solution.

This is most likely due to a app update issue. The BB Music workaround should fix thhe problem.
Go to BB Music. Tap the three dots and selet blackberry world. Go to My World and them My Apps and Check for updates. Post this, the app world should function normally.

Macbook Pro Retina 15" flashing image/icon of world on screen at startup

My Macbook Pro (retina 15"), flashed an image/icon of the world when started up, and it had to be restarted before starting up properly. What's the reason for this? Is this an issue?

Search on globe at startup.
When I did up came some answers from way back in 2006.
It said to go to preferences startup & select the start up. I tried that & then restarted & while it seemed to take awhile then the rest has been faster.
It was saying something about losing where to find the start up so it was hunting until it found it. Something like that.
I'm on a 2012 13" MacBookPro running Mavericks.
Before this I had noticed it flashing back & forth between a gray screen & Mavericks screen on boot up (I was back & forth while booting & came back to see that. knew it wasn't good so shut down. Waited a few & then started up. It worked.)
It was funny since I had been wanting to go to Apple store & had talked about going w sister in law. That morning they said they were going in because hers wasn't working at all. So then I booted up & had that happen.
So I called & made a Genius bar appt. They checked & didn't find anything, but I had been getting the globe on bootup which kind of concerned me. Also its been rather slow booting & shutting down.

Dhcpcd starting by wich init-script? [Solved]

I have static ip on both eth devices. These configured by netcfg: with if1 and if2 files in /etc/network.d/
here they are:
cat /etc/network.d/if1
CONNECTION='ethernet'
DESCRIPTION='ethernet connection to internet'
INTERFACE='eth0'
IP='static'
ADDR='10.85.231.106'
NETMASK='255.255.0.0'
GATEWAY='10.85.231.65'
DNS=('10.85.224.33')
cat /etc/network.d/if1

DESCRIPTION='ethernet connection to localnet'
INTERFACE='eth1'
IP='static'
ADDR='192.168.225.222'
NETMASK='255.255.255.0'
But my resolve.conf sometimes is overwritten by dhcpcd.
in /etc/rc.conf I don't have any property connected with net set except HOSTNAME="ramazotty" and NETWORK_PERSIST="no"
my daemons are:
DAEMONS=(hwclock syslog-ng network net-profiles sshd samba xinetd @cupsd dbus @netfs crond)
Who in the world is starting dhcpcd?
p.s. The parent is process 1:
>ps -f `pidof dhcpcd`
UID PID PPID C STIME TTY STAT TIME CMD
root 497 1 0 15:09 ? Ss 0:00 dhcpcd -q

FYI you don't need the network init script when you're using netcfg.
This is not the answer you're looking for, just some useful information - unless you happen to be wrong about your rc.conf.

Got a new Mac, my iTunes is whack, (No Play Count or Date Added)

Hello, everybody. It's been a rough night.
I currently own a G4 iMac and I just got a brand new Macbook. The Macbook is very nice, it's extremely speedy and I am sure I will grow to love it. We've got just one hurdle to get through together: the organization of my music in iTunes. Now, I've had the iMac for five years, and not long after I got it adding music to it became something of an importance, it was my music player. Over the past five years I've not only added thousands of songs, but meticulously and very specifically organized them into playlists based on the number of spins they have and when they were added. To a lot of people I know this sort of thing isn't a huge deal, but for me this organization became, and I kid you not, a huge, huge part of my life.
So I get the new Macbook, fire it up and use Migration Assistant, (with the iMac in Target Disk Mode), to move my data over. When it's done I open the iTunes and am greeted with... nothing. Well, okay, all of my music is there, that's nice, (it's what iTunes is for, etc etc), but NONE of my play count or date added information remains. I weep inside.
Being that this is my first new computer in five years, (a long time!), you might be able to tell that I was hesitant about upgrading. Before getting my Macbook I asked experts at the Apple Store if this method would work, and even received assurance from several people online that everything would be preserved. So, I did my homework, but my Macs and I both apparently failed the test. Here's where we are now:
1. The iMac, (running Tiger), still has iTunes on it, with all the information, nothing seems to have changed on that end.
2. The Macbook has a hard drive full of music with no playlist, play count or date added data.
3. I do own an iPod where I backed up the music before the move. I know that the data information on playlists, play count and date added is on the iPod. I do not dare plug it in to the new machine for fear of the unknown.
Which brings me here, is there some way, any way of rectifying this? Here is what I would like:
1. For the Macbook iTunes to look EXACTLY like the iMac's does.
2. For it to work with both my old iPods without question.
This has been long, and I fear that some may pass it over as something too much of an banality to be needed help with. But like some collect shoes or hats, I collect music. It's a lovely collection and it's a large part of who I am. I could start all over, but that's sort of like saying the world could start over if it by chance happened to forget how to turn. It would take a lot of effort, and there would be some (more) tears, but I could move on. But I really, really don't want to. I just want things to be the way they were. I'd very much like to have this information present, and I thank you all for your time.

ADDED:
Now that I look at it, appears that nothing except for my applications transferred over. My old computer is listed in the Hard Drive, but I can't access any of the folders because I don't have that "level of privileges" or whatever, (odd, considering they're both my computers, do they need to be hooked up for this?). I don't really need for my old applications to be there, (Hello, iWork '06 Demo!), so can I just go and erase them, or am I better just starting all over again?

Labview 2009 32 bit not running on xp 64 bit

Hi all,
I tried to upgrade to LabVIEW 2009 from LabVIEW 8.6 on 64-bit windows XP machine. Following about a 2 hour removal of 8.6 and subsequent installation of LV 2009 it turns out that the device drivers are not compatible with a 64-bit machine. On launching LabVIEW 2009 (32-bit) an error box appears stating that it is corrupt or missing files and to correct this using control panel etc. I have tried this and still the same error occurs and LV refuses to start.
All the license files are correct and the compnents are activated.
Anyone know how to fix this? Or should I go back to 8.6 and cancel my upgrade subscription?
Secondly, I am using a firewire camera and was informed that Ni-IMAQ legacy are no longer supported and to go to ni.com/ifo and enter legacy1394 to see how to download drivers etc for this. I end up on a page that says "not authorized".
Any help gratefully appreciated.
Solved!

I agree that XP64 and LV 2009 are not compatible as I installed LV 2009 on another 32-bit machine with no problems. I was just surprised as there were no problems or issues that I came across for 8. on XP64. Ah well, a uninstallation and reinstallation lies in wait for me on Monday morning!!
As an aside why call it LV 2009 instead of LV 8.7 or even LV9.0...sounds reminiscent of an operating system!!
Regards,

LabVIEW 2009 is according to the internal version scheme actually equivalent to LabVIEW 9.0. Why they changed the naming? I guess marketing told them to do so. Why then? Well marketing has some funny ideas sometimes. I guess since THE software provider in this world has started to do this since about Windows 2000 someone must have thought it to be the best idea since sliced bread and decided to do it for LabVIEW too.
Another guess is that in about 2010 there would have been something like 9.1, and 10.0 would then come out in 2011 and that sounded somehow to someone like a bad scheme so they decided to change it now. But maybe it will be forgotten and everybody returns to the old versioning at the begin of next year when 9.0.1 will come out, which would then otherwise be LV 2009.1??? Or maybe LV2009 SP1?
It has already happened with LabVIEW 6i (iMacs, iPhones, iAnything), LabVIEW 7 Express and LabVIEW 8.20 (following 8.0.1 and marking the 20th anniversary of LabVIEW, and being internally LabVIEW 8.2). All some marketing fun or hysteria.

JMS UDD not working properly

Hello
First of all I new to weblogic world and started using it recently, the issue which we are facing is that we had a doc given by our client to create a weblogic JMS uniform distributed destination with queue. We followed it and everything came up properly. In our test env we have 2 Physical Machines on which each machine has a one node in a cluster and then we created JMS servers, connection factory with UDD. We started the nodes everything comes up properly.
But the issue starts when we tested it for the load balancing which I believe is a feature of UDD is not working properly. All the messages are going to the same node. The same documentation has been used by our client several times and it works fine for them.
What is the issue with our configuration? I have gone through the doc many times but cant find the issue.
Please help us.

Hi,
I think there might be some issue with the communication between the 2 machines, check that out also check if you have disabled the Server Affinity Enabled

Hi,
for the Points.
The Sending computer does not have to be in the United States (It used to with older versions of iChat)
However I would think you meant the phone is not in the United States either.
iMessages is still going to need to know where in the world a iPhone number is so the pic as a Contact number that looks too small.
It is possible that Yosemite may only do SMS in certain areas of the world to start with.

Javascript functions and Extendedscript -- newbie help

I am new to the Photoshop scripting world and starting with a basic script to gather folder names and then remove the path. When I use the code below ESTK throws an error that labs[i].substring is not a function. That I know, it's not...but it is valid javascript. Need an explanation please.
Thanks
#target photoshop
//Sizes Tab
//Lab Drop-down menu
var labSets = Folder('~/Desktop/Template Hub/');
var labSets = labSets.getFiles();
//Create Array containing Lab names from folder names
var labs = labSets;
for (i=0; i<labs.length; i++) {
    var v = labs[i].substring(labs[i].lastIndexOf("/")+1);

labs[i] is a file or folder object. Strings have a substring method. You could convert the file/folder to a string but I think it's better if you use a file/folder porperty. Something like this...
#target photoshop
//Sizes Tab
//Lab Drop-down menu
var labSets = Folder('~/Desktop/Template Hub/');
var labSets = labSets.getFiles();// this get all file and folders
//Create Array containing Lab names from folder names
var labs = [];
for (i=0; i<labSets.length; i++) {
    if( labSets[i] instanceof Folder ){
        var v = decodeURI(labSets[i].name);// decodeURI deals with spaces and other such chars in the folder name
        labs.push(v);

Unit test with JUnit

Hi all,
I use Eclipse IDE: Eclipse Java EE IDE for Web Developers. Version: Indigo Release
I use JUnit 4. For project properties> Java Build Path> Libraries: I have JUnit4 added. Also under the same tab: Maven Dependencies> I have junit-4.8.2.jar
In pom.xml I have:
<dependency>
      <groupId>junit</groupId>
      <artifactId>junit</artifactId>
      <version>4.8.2</version>
      <scope>test</scope>
    </dependency>Basically, I’m writing unit tests using JUnit in the past few months! All I needed to do was to create a test class, add a test method like below:
@Test
public void testMethod(){
          // Some test code
}Right click on method, Run As> JUnit Test
That’s all I needed to do to either run my unit test or do Debug As> Junit Test to debug my unit test.
All was fine with the world! Starting yesterday, when I add a new test method in a test class, and then do: Right click on method, Run As> JUnit Test
Nothing happens! I cannot run or debug any test anymore! Meaning I cannot add any new unit test!
Let me also add that after I add my test method, I do a clean build thru Eclipse and Eclipse sees the newly complied class which contains my new test method.
Since none of my configurations changed, I have no idea what went wrong!
Does anybody has any idea? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Yes, I have an idea: Post your code. I for one am not going to my waste my time speculating and guessing.Could also just be IDE crud. I've had similar problems with older versions of Eclipse. Never with current ones though.
OP: eclipse creates run/debug configurations for each class. If you search around a little you should find the dialog, I don't know the exact name. I think you can reach it from the "run as" menu options. You should try clearing the settings of your test suite to see if that changes anything.
