Hello, .lib files are dynamically linked, so the code contained inside these files is usually minimal, compared to the DLL files that have to acompany the .lib files. Usually when you get a .lib file, there's a header file (*.h) to go with it. You then add this to the …

OK, first off: for(int i = 0; i < message.size ; i++) `message` is part of the struct `Message`. You have to refer to an instance, or else you will get an error. void Encrypt::encrypt(int index) And here, it should be `Encrypt:Encrypt`, and since constructors can't return anything, remove the …

[QUOTE=LiBOC;269050]However, their VCD format outputs a MPEG. Which I think is still a computer format and not a VCD player format.[/QUOTE] VCDs use MPEG as their video format. All you need to do now is burn it to disk, but it must be burned with the right software. Assuming you …

[QUOTE=mesamb1;269072]i think this is the site bobthecar is talking about [url]http://www.killdisk.com/downloadfree.htm[/url][/QUOTE] Yeah, but that's only for Windows. I don't think that KillDisk is even written for Mac... As for your problem, I'd say try rebooting a few times, and if that doesn't help, either: a) some cables are loose inside, …

Is your battery alright? If you're not running off wall power, this could be a concern. If not, make sure that latest firmware updates for the Vaio are installed. Failing that, I'd say there's something wrong with the internal power supply.

Well, what [I]did[/I] you say in the first place? >Waiiit, this isn't at our IRC, is it? ;) No, I don't think so...

Many different ways of doing it. You can, for example, reformat the hard drive, although that would kind of suck if you had important data on there. There are lots of password retrieval tools out there. [URL="http://www.loginrecovery.com/"]Loginrecovery[/URL] can create a boot floppy you can use to recover it. (I'm assuming …

[QUOTE=sybillness;268607]Yeah, we thought that too, so we ordered a scanning software/driver CD from HP for OS X and installed it, with the same result when we tried to scan. I was hoping there was some setting or system preference somewhere that would let me designate which OS to open an …

It could be the brand. It's also a possibility that you're using the wrong type of blank DVD (+R instead of -R, or the other way around). If it worked fine before, and now it suddenly doesn't work, I would say your SuperDrive is probably breaking down.

Remember, this site does not discuss illegal things here. Hacking not only breaks into other computers, it also breaks the law. And you can face severe civil penalties if you get caught.

[quote=cscgal;264086]I haven't seen anyone use this tag since its inception. Is it not useful?[/quote] Most people probably don't even know about it (I only occasionally read Community Feedback), and I don't really see that many uses for it.

[QUOTE=jpjenkins;268365]My question is, if I have cable broadband access will it work? Or will I have to consider something else?

Hello, It almost seems like a DHCP problem. When a computer is using a self-assigned IP address and is connected to a router, then it's common to be able to get access to other computers but no Internet. What's the DHCP lease length set to in the router configuration page? …

Perhaps there's some kind of permissions problem? MS Office usually needs to open a lot of files, which can sometimes be locked up (for example, the preference files). You may want to make sure that not only the Applications folder is shared, but the main Library folder, and each individual …

The most known Mac OS X virus is called the Leap-A virus. It transmits itself by a Trojan horse, whose filename is "latestpics.tga". When opened, it executes some code, and copies some files onto your hard drive. It then tried to send latestpics.tga to everyone on your iChat buddy list. …

Can you post a screenshot? (This is kind of hard to understand...) The PrintScreen key on your keyboard will come in handy for this. Then when you post, choose "Go Advanced", and then under "Attachments" you can add the file. And can you please use punctuation so we can better …

Are you using a crossover cable? There are 2 different types of ethernet cables: straight-through and crossover. Straight-through is used for connecting to a router, whereas crossover is generally used for connecting 2 computers directly together, because it "crosses over" the wires internally so that the computer gets the data …

Which is why it's probably a better idea to put the badge in your signature, where you [I]can[/I] hotlink images.

Hello, I think you're experiencing these problems because the PowerPoint application that created them is newer than the current version available for Mac.

DNS lookup failed for ilikerps.net, and whois database had no information, so I would say that there's a problem with your domain hosting service, and not you. One possibility is that your IP address over port 80 is now blocked by your ISP (assuming that web hosting isn't part of …

[QUOTE='Stein;267320]Ahh nevermind, its a Firefox 2.0 thing. ;)[/QUOTE] Yep, although I haven't seen any other browsers that natively support it. (I think IE7 might have a plugin, but it's much nicer when they're built-in [[COLOR="Blue"]edit[/COLOR]]to the browser[/[COLOR="Blue"]edit[/COLOR]].)

Hello, I don't think the Lexmark X1180 is officially compatible with Mac OS X.

Something seems wrong with the DHCP. Your computer can't seem to get an IP address with DHCP, so it defaults to the 169.254.x.x series. It almost seems like you need to set the default gateway for this particular computer, which can be obtained from BT Hub. That's what their tech …

Gentoo Minimal is well, very minimal. It can be anything you want actually. You install the base system, and then you can add X desktop, other software, etc. Be warned! First of all, you need a lot of Linux know-how. Secondly, you need an internet connection to the thing, at …

[URL]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goobuntu[/URL] Dunno how it will turn out, or even if they're still working on it. Personally, I hate Ubuntu, so if Google bases their distro on this, I'm probably not going to use it.

Fedora was probably just being stupid when it installed GRUB. Normally, GRUB should be installed to the Master Boot Record of the first bootable hard drive, which in your case is /dev/hda. Sometimes, things get wonky, and in your case, I suspect Fedora was installing GRUB to the first partition …

Check your TCP/IP settings. As it was on a LAN, it may have a statically assigned IP address, whereas most routers are setup with DHCP (dynamic IP addresses). Go into the Control Panel, choose Network Settings, select your network card, and under its properties, make sure it is set to …

Probably. Most Applications are self-contained in their Application file, so there will be very little problems. They are smart enough to find the preference files, which you should leave on the startup hard drive. The only problems might come from large commerical applications, because they can contain more external files. …

Don't know about everyone else; I never use the forum jump buttons, mainly because it's too far down on the page, and mainly because I don't think of it.

It depends on what version of Windows you're running. If you're running Windows XP/NT/2000, choose Start->Settings->Control Panel. Under System, choose either "Enviroment" on NT, or Advanced->Enviroment Variables. There should be "PATH" listed, and then all you have to do is add the Python directory to the end of this list. …

Assuming you're paying for your internet, isn't there some sort of "higher-level" package available?
