XFI Drivers - Whats the correct way

Considering that after I installed my XFI Extreme music card into my PC and installed the drivers from the CD played games, rebooted and it asks me to reinstall the drivers for the multimedia device.
What is the correct way to install drivers for these cards so that you can reboot your computer without it freaking out?
The only way i've been able to successfully keep the XFI installed is by doing these things in order.
Uninstalling the software
Uninstall the drivers via the CD uninstall tool
Cleaning the registry with aggressi've options (JV 6 power tools)
Using Driver Cleaner Pro and removing all creative audio and Creative audio lite files.
turning the machine off and moving the Sound blaster card to another PCI slot.
Turning back on and using the drivers off the CD.
If i use any other drivers, the Web update 2 or Beta 3, the card will not install.
this is on this system:
AMD Barton CPU 2500+
ASUS A7n8X-x motherboard 00 bios rev
WD800 80 GB hard dri've
Nvidia Geforce 6600 GT vid-card
GB IBM ram

Well this is a strange problem... So what you are essentially saying, is that Windows doen't keep the the records of your newly installed hardware... Or the hardware may be assigned to new resources after restart, which might cause the Installation to commence.
The 2nd can happen pretty often on an ACPI System, or if you change the "Plug and Play OS" section in your BIOS Setup. But even if this happens, Windows should have still kept the Installation Information in its registry, so it wouldn't bother you searching for the drivers.
So I believe it has to lie with your Windows installation...
What exactly do you mean with "the card will not install" with the newer drivers? Are you getting an error message?
Have you tried the?infamous manual installation? (Extract your downloaded drivers, then go to the \Drivers subfolder and execute Setup from there. Select the "...Creative shared files" option.)

I have a macbook air late 2010 and keep getting a warning that my hard drive is full and to delete things so I purchased a external hard drive (1TB) but I'm just not sure what the correct way to transfer and store files to the external drive is. First MAC

I purchased a macbook air about 5 months ago and lately i keep recieving a warning that the hard drive or disk is full and that I will need to move items to trash in order to free up space on it. I purchased a external hard drive 1 TB but I'm very new to mac and ios and unsure as to how I'm suppose to transfer my files (video, pics, music etc.) from my mac over to the external hard drive in the correct way so I won't end up deleting them permenately or screwing anything up with my mac as far as the applications and programs being able to run. Am I supposed to just copy to the external hard drive and then move to and empty the trash? That's pretty much all I could come up with, but then what if i need or want to access that file again at a later time. Also, I have an i Phone and i pad so with i cloud it automatically syncs all my purcheses and if i delete something from itunes on my mac it deletes from my ipad.
I'd appreciate any kind of input i think im just a little lost here. I have to say i love my Mac and wouldn't trade it for anything (except maybe a macbook pro w/more memory)... Is there something I'm missing???

To free up hard drive space the best bet is to move data files that you don't need access to all the time. Likely candidates are music, video, and photos. Things like word processing and spreadsheet files can also be moved but they tend not to be very large and so don't free up much space. The problem with moving the above mentioned files is that iTunes and iPhoto need to know where the files are stored.
Here's an article explaining how to move the iTunes folder. You can move the iPhoto library using the Finder but there is a slight complication. Start iPhoto, open the Preferences and click on the Advanced tab. The first option is "Copy items to the iPhoto Library". If this option is checked, copy the iPhoto library to your external folder (drag it from the Pictures folder to your external drive) and then delete it from your Picture folder. If this option is not checked, it is a bit more complicated and we'll need to talk a bit.

[JSF 1.2] - Role Based Web Application: Whats the correct way of doing it?

Hello,
i have a web application that in some pages is role based. I have two database tables, Role and Permissions. Role can have 1..N Permissions and vice versa.
In one page i need to render some forms depending on user role.
What is the best approach to this?
1. I have a sessionBean and on login load all the permissions (it's less secure but faster) based on user role;
2. Everytime i use rendered="#{sessionBean.checkPermissions['can-create']}" i query the database. This checkPermissions gets the user role and retrieve all permissions of that user on demand;
The first option is faster but while the user is logged if permissions changes we might have problems.
The second, if i user 3 rendered attributes i do 3 queries to the database.
Is rendered attribute the correct implementation?
Regards.

Yes, the rendered attribute is the correct way to accomplish this.
As to the question of caching the result or querying the database each time, that is something that needs to be answered on an application by application basis.

Re: Whats the correct way to layout a JFrame

Hi,
I am fairly new to Java and have just started to put together my first big application. Its a simple application written in Swing where the user is first shown a login screen, when he presses the login button and is taken to another screen where he/she is asked 10 questions and then when they finish this they are taken to a results screen and then exit.
To do this I have a JFrame and three different JPanels (one for each screen - login, question and result) and when a user presses a certain button on each screen it triggers an actionEvent and the next JPanel is loaded onto the JFrame.
This is fairly standard stuff, but my query is this. As my program gets bigger and I have more and more JPanel screens linked in with each other. Putting them all in one class seems very messy, but if I put each of the JPanels in a different class (for example) - how does my main class with the main JFrame in know when an actionEvent has been triggered inside one of the JPanels.
My question is really this... what is the best way to lay out a bigger program like this?
Many Thanks
David Wraith

How do I call a method in my mainClass, when that is where I loaded the JPanel class from?
I understand how to call a method from my mainClass in the JPanel class.. but not go the other way?!?
many thanks

What is the correct way to add styling to drag-and-drop created calendars?

I have a working instance of a rich client calendar. I generated the view with the required fields (start, stop, provider, ...), put it into the App Module, and dragged it onto a JSF page to create a calendar.
Next I created an activityScope object in a class called CalendarBean (no inheritance)
Class CalendarBean()
private HashMap<Set<String>, InstanceStyles> activityColorMap;
+..+
+public CalendarBean() {+
super();
activityColorMap = new HashMap<Set<String>, InstanceStyles>();
HashSet setEd = new HashSet<String>();
HashSet setLen = new HashSet<String>();
setEd.add("Work");
setLen.add("Home");
activityColorMap.put(setEd, CalendarActivityRamp.getActivityRamp(CalendarActivityRamp.RampKey.ORANGE));
activityColorMap.put(setLen, CalendarActivityRamp.getActivityRamp(CalendarActivityRamp.RampKey.RED));
+}+
+}+
Next, I linked this up as a backing bean and associated the ActivityStyles of CalendarBean to it:
+#{backingBeanScope.calendarBean.activityColorMap}+
I populated some records in the database with properties "Work" and "Ed', but they show default blue.
As I understand it, I need to do something with the getTags() method of the underlying CalendarActivity class, but I'm not quite sure how to do that.
Took a stab at creating a class, CalendarActivityBean, that extended CalendarActivity, and pointed all the CalendarActivity references I had to the new class, but it didn't seem to fire (in debug), and I got into trouble, when inserting records, with
public void calendarActivityListener(CalendarActivityEvent calendarActivityEvent) {
currActivity = (CalendarActivityBean) calendarActivityEvent.getCalendarActivity();
being an illegal cast
What is the correct way to add provider-based styling to drag-and-drop create calendars?
Ed Schechter

A colleague of mine was kind enough to solve this:
The calendar has ActivityStyles property = #{calendarBean.activityStyles}
CalendarBean looks something like this:
package com.hub.appointmentscheduler.ui.schedule;
import java.util.HashMap;
import java.util.HashSet;
import java.util.Set;
import oracle.adf.view.rich.util.CalendarActivityRamp;
import oracle.adf.view.rich.util.InstanceStyles;
+public class CalendarBean {+
private HashMap activityStyles;
private String dummy;
+public CalendarBean() {+
+// Define colors+
activityStyles = new HashMap<Set<String>, InstanceStyles>();
HashSet setPending = new HashSet<String>();
HashSet setArrived = new HashSet<String>();
HashSet setApproved = new HashSet<String>();
HashSet setCompleted = new HashSet<String>();
setApproved.add("APPROVED");
setPending.add("PENDING");
setArrived.add("ARRIVED");
setCompleted.add("COMPLETED");
activityStyles.put(setApproved, CalendarActivityRamp.getActivityRamp(CalendarActivityRamp.RampKey.GREEN));
activityStyles.put(setPending, CalendarActivityRamp.getActivityRamp(CalendarActivityRamp.RampKey.ORANGE));
activityStyles.put(setArrived, CalendarActivityRamp.getActivityRamp(CalendarActivityRamp.RampKey.PLUM));
activityStyles.put(setCompleted, CalendarActivityRamp.getActivityRamp(CalendarActivityRamp.RampKey.LAVENDAR));
+}+
+public void setactivityStyles(HashMap activityStyles) {+
this.activityStyles = activityStyles;
+}+
+public HashMap getactivityStyles() {+
return activityStyles;
+}+
+}+
Now, go into the Bindings tab on the calendar page, double click the calendar binding, and specify the column you've defined as the calendar's Provider in the Tags dropdown.
Should show colors.

1.4.2 - What is the correct way to format output in the java.io.PrintStream

With Java 1.4.2:
What is the correct way to format output in the java.io.PrintStream?
The following is incorrect, even though it is still used in the The JavaTM Tutorial at: http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/essential/
System.out.formatThis returns "cannot resolve the method 'format'"
Any detailed suggestions or information is greatly appreciated.

The following is incorrect, even though it is still
used in the The JavaTM Tutorial at:
http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/essential/
The whole format thing has been introduced in 1.5. The tutorial also states it's been "updated to 1.5.".
That's all I've got to say for I don't know how you can format a PrintWriter, let alone a PrintStream, prior to 1.5. I'm not really sure there is any way. Any "legacy way", that is. There almost certainly are third-party API which achieve similar results.

What is the correct way to upgrade 5.0.4 to 5.1 Universal?

I just received Final Cut Studio Universal, and I have Final Cut Pro 5.0.4 installed what is the correct way to upgrade all the Final Cut Studio applications? Do install over or delete each application and then reinstall?
As always thanks in advance for reading and replying to my Post,
Sebastian

WHEN I do it, I'm going to archive what's necessary and desirable to keep, erase my hard drive, reinstall Tiger, do the upgrades, then install 5.1 clean and do the upgrades.
Might sound like overkill, but I really love a clean, fast machine and nothing does it better!

What's the correct way to handle changes in RDBMS/DBadapter?

In my project all changes to the database are not done via Jdeveloper but via TOAD. This means DBadapters must be made aware of changes in the database.
I tried to re-run the DBad.apter wizard twice (2 different services) - to make it aware of changes in the DB. Both times it failed. I think was after the import database tab. The next tab was just blank.
So what's the correct way of reconile changes in the db backwards into Jdev?
BTW, in the DBadapter wiz its not possible the remove a already imported table. How do I come across the situation where I want the DBadapter to point to af different table? - and possibly remove old references to another one - which might have been removed in the DB.
As It is now - I have to re-work all my DBadapters, which is not very much fun...
Rgds, Henrik

Trust me, I hv done that umpteen nbr of times.
I hate BA's coming to me with changes, for which I hv to modify the DB adapter.
One big loop-hole with BPEL is if we try to modify the adapters/toplink, it doesnt tend to work properly.
The manthra for such modifications is ... "recreate", which is definetely not a good practise.
You may not like but gottu live with it, my friend.
Pointing to a different table, I achieve it by doing a "Shift+Delete" to all the references of the old table in the BPEL project ... :|
There isnt a specific provision in the wzd (I am not sure of the latest version, though).

What is the correct way to call older version of Adober Reader?

What is the correct way to call older version of Adober Reader? Specifically version 8? Acrobar Reader 8 or Adober Reader 8? Is is necessary to include "Reader"? We are creating a form and are adding instructions that it works with version 8 and newer. We want to make sure it is worded correctly!
Thanks!
Danielle

When you "Save as" and you select the "compatibility with" for older versions, the document will be compatible with whatever version you choose, be it 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, or higher. If you want to "test it", you'll need a computer with Reader 8 installed, but I've never seen the "Save as" make something that was incompatible with the version it was saving for.

What is the correct way to format file paths and names in the structapp file?

I am trying to create a structured application to export fm files as xml, and probably read the xml back to fm.
In the structured application file (structapp), I need to specify the locations of the various files (DTD, read/write, template, etc). I would like to place these files on a shared server so others can use the same structapp file (that is, a cop of it). What is the correct way to format the file paths and names? Can folders folder names and file names have spaces in them? I tried the following, for example:
\\serverName\shareName\folder 1\folder 2\file name.dtd
I use the same format for the template file and the read/write rules file.
When I try to save an fm file to xml, FrameMaker says that it cannot read the DTD; however, the resulting xml file appears to be well-formed. The DOCTYPE element in the resulting xml is formatted with forward slashes and spaces replaced with %20.
I tried using forward slashes and replacing spaces with %20, but then I get an error about reading the read/write rules.
NOTE: I have another structured application to read xml into fm. This application does not have a DTD file. The template and read/write rules files are specified as above. Except for complaining about a lack of a DTD, the application works fine; it even applies an XSLT in the process. Again, when I DO add a DTD to this latter application, I get the same complaint about not being able to read the DTD.
I am using fully patched FrameMaker 9 in Windows XP.
Thanks,
Van

Hi Van,
The XML parser and FrameMaker are not the same thing. The Error Log says which component created which message. The XSL processor is another option that can throw messages. The "\\server\path\some.dtd" syntax in structapps.fm seems to be fine for some tools, as Internet Explorer with XML tools successfully finds the DTD which appears as "//server/path/some.dtd" in the XML. But apparently Xerxes, the XML parser bundled with FrameMaker, does not like this notation.
If you have a path with a drive letter, "H:\path\some.dtd", FrameMaker turns that into "file:///H:/path/some.dtd". It seems, Xerces would like to see "file:/" in front of absolute paths.
This is what I have in structapps.fm:
Template: \\server\path\projecttemplate.fm
DTD: some.dtd
Read/write rules: \\server\path\projectrules.txt
DOCTYPE: …
Entity locations
Entity search paths
1: \\server\path\
In the structapps.fm I have the DTD without path information. The resulting XML (without XSL postprocessing) then contains just the file name with a relative path back to the book folder (when saving a book as XML). It therefore requires the DTD to be available at this place. I handle this using an event script that fires for NotePreSaveXml and copies the DTD to the folder of the original document.
As I always use XSL postprocessing and using XSLT1 it is not possible to have the doctype-system as a parameter I have this in my XSL stylesheet:
<xsl:output doctype-system="some.dtd" />
For the resulting XML the DTD is expected to be in the same folder as the XML file. This is handled by the same event script as above, it therefore copies the DTD to the source and the target folder.
Bottom line: If you want/have to use UNC paths, you have to do some programming to work around a FrameMaker bug.

What is the correct way to add behaviors to text?

I seem to be having trouble adding behaviors properly.
What I'd like to do is select a few words of text and apply a behavior to them, in particular the behavior Open Browser Window when a user clicks on the selected text. I've gotten this work in what I'm sure is not the correct way. The only way I can get it to work is if the text link also has an a href link set up (through the Properties Inspector) pointing back to this same page. Now if I simply select some text and go to add a behavior to it through the tag inspector panel a lot of my choices are greyed out. I'm not super code-savy but do I understand that these behaviors should / can only be applied to tags?
You can see samples of what I'm talking about here: http://www.philasecurities.com/luncheon_meetings.html. In the luncheon schedule, click on the "more…" links and a new, small browser window should open.
How should I be applying these correctly?
Thanks,
John

Pop-up Window in Dreamweaver (Behaviors Panel)
1. Insert an image or type some text.
2. Select it and go to the Properties Panel link field. Browse for the file or type the full URL (http://example.com).
3. Go to the Behaviors Panel and hit the plus sign to add a new behavior.
4. Select Open Browser Window.
5. Browse to file or type the URL (Yes, a 2nd time).
6. Set the height, width and other optional attributes for your pop-up window. (See link below for details)
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/dreamweaver/cs/using/WSc78c5058ca073340dcda9110b1f693f21-7b07a .html
7. Hit OK.
8. Verify that the behavior's trigger event is onClick. If it's not, click the event box to show other trigger options.
9. IMPORTANT! Go back to the Properties Panel and replace the first URL in the link field with javascript:() which makes the primary link into a null link. If you don't do this, the link will open twice: once in the pop-up window and again in the parent window.
Save your page and preview in browsers.
PS. It takes longer to explain all these steps than it does to do it.

What's the correct way to set up an external style playing keyboard

Hi
what's the correct way to set up an external style playing keyboard?
i want the keyboard to use the Logic's voices, and also to record the midi that is being inputed.
I can do it on One Channel, but when I selct multiple channels, all the channels seem to play all of the input data!!!
anybody??

Check the formatting. It need to be formatted as Mac OS Extended (journaled). This is also known as HFS+.
FAT32 and NTFS formatting will not work with iMovie.
If necessary, you can reformat using Disk Utility.
Make one large partition. No need for multiple partitions.
Do moves or copies to the external drive through iMovie as detailed in iMovie Help. If you move Events in the Finder, they may become unlinked from the projects that use them.
