  • I have LavVIEW 8.6 full version installed. I tried to upgrade to 8.6 professional version by just installing the new disks, and it didn't upgrade. Do I have to un-install, or is there a trick ?

    I have LavVIEW 8.6 full version installed.  I tried to upgrade to 8.6 professional version by just installing the new disks, and it didn't perform the upgrade.  Do I have to un-install first and re-install, or is there a trick ?
    Solved!

    Look into the License Manager in the National Instruments folder of your Start menu.  It is probably just a matter of activating LabVIEW 8.6 and possibly some other features with your new license code instead of your previous full version license code.

  • Blackberry Playbook Overheated but works fine, screen is dark from edges about 1 inch and the rest is a light color

    Hi,
    I woke up this morning and tried picking up my playbook but it was very hot and also still charging, then I took it off of charge and I let it cool down. The playbook turns on and functions fine, but the screen is dark from around the edges (about 1 inch)  and then light from the inner side. Also I never took my playbook into the sun or any other hot place and I think my factory blackberry playbook charger might be at fault. I didn't get any notification or any other type of hint from my playbook that it was hot or overheated. My playbook was turned off when it was charging and my bedroom was cool because of my A/C and ceiling fan. I don't understand how this happened and how can I make the screen go back to normal, It has been about 1 hour now and nothing has changed about the screen.

    My Playbook is fine now, the screen is normal again and the charger was at fault, but charge your BB playbook when itis turned on because my playbook was off and overheated and this was overnight. Also I resolved the screen problem by leaving it in a cool room in my home, and the LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) crystals were probably just very hot and they had to cool down also the battery life is still the same . But the BB playbook is fine and works fast, also I still have all my files and every function work perfectly. I wrote this from the BB playbook.

  • Upgraded to Windows 7, now iTunes thinks it's a new computer and is making me authorize it

    My computer was recently upgraded to Windows 7, and iTunes now thinks it's a new computer and is forcing me to authorize it as a new one (which uses the number of computers I can authorize). Not only that, but it's making me do it more than once, so this same laptop has now been authorized 3 times. Any way to let iTunes know it's confused, and/or to put it back?  Also since the upgrade it will only download sporadic episodes of TV seasons I have purchased, not sure if it's related....

    Go into iTunes, select the iTunes store, and in the upper right hand corner of the browser, you'll see your account name.  Clikc on that, and you'll access an area where you can edit the details about your account.  One of the choices is to de-autorize all your computers.  Do that.  Then authorize the one you want.

  • Forum Mods, Please make this a sticky: BlackBerry PlayBook battery power charge, discharge characteristics, and guidance on extending battery life

    BlackBerry PlayBook battery power charge, discharge characteristics, and guidance on extending battery life
    KB27705
    Overview
    The BlackBerry PlayBook may come to a power state where it is unable to power on; a Yellow LED may flash in a sequence of 5 flashes, the BlackBerry PlayBook may boot up to the BlackBerry PlayBook Logo and then power off, may not power on at all.
    Discharge behavior under normal use:
    Under normal active use, a battery drained to 10% will cause the device to prompt the BlackBerry PlayBook user (notification and audible beep)
    Without connecting a charger the device will automatically shut down at 3.53V (0%)
    Pressing the power button may allow successful boot, but it will turn off again very quickly
    Discharge behavior under no use:
    A device left unused but in ‘Stand By’ will warn the BlackBerry PlayBook user at 10% (notification and audible beep)
    The warning may not be noticed and the device will go back to ‘Stand By’
    Letting the device drain in standby mode drains the battery slower, but more completely
    Device will still shut off at 3.53V (0%), but it less likely to successfully boot afterwards
    Discharge behavior under 3.53V (0%):
    If the device is left to shutoff, the battery will continue to drain below 3.53V due to quiescent current draw from the motherboard and the battery fuel gauge
    With the battery between 2.7V-3.53V, pressing the power button causes the LED to flash a pattern (1 solid red light followed by 5 yellow blinks)  to indicate low battery (PlayBook Tablet OS version 1.0.5, and above)
    Below 2.7V there is no activity, or LED pattern displayed
    Charge Behaviour:
    The provided charger should be used to charge the device. The optional 12 volt rapid charger is may reduce charging times
    to approximately 3 to 4 hrs. Standard Blackberry smartphone chargers, other AC adapter USB chargers, or computer USB ports
    are not recommended for the sole purpose of charging the PlayBook as with these methods it may take more that 12 hours to
    charge the BlackBerry Playbook.
    If the battery voltage is below 3.53V(0%) then the charging behaviour is dependent on the software version.  The charging code will limit the charging current to under 400 milliamps, during which time, it may take an hour to reach 3.53 Volts. Once the battery voltage rises past 3.53 volts, then "high-rate" charging will start. If, after charging the Tablet for 4 to 6 hours still does not result in LED activity, attempt to force power on the BlackBerry Playbook by pressing and holding only the Power Button for only 20 seconds.
    Prior to BlackBerry Tablet OS 1.0.5:
    A BlackBerry PlayBook will never charge while powered off in BlackBerry Tablet OS versions prior to 1.0.5.
    The device will show a red light when the charger is connected and then nothing more
    Repeated connection of the charger can recover the device in some instances. 
    Once the battery voltage rises above 3.53V the system will boot and the UI will show charging
    Starting in BlackBerry Tablet OS 1.0.5:
    The device will show a solid red LED, followed by a solid yellow LED as the device boots into charging mode.  This is followed by a yellow pulsating LED indicating charging in progress.
    The time span between the red and yellow lights can be as long as 45 seconds as the device boots into charging mode. 
    Once the yellow LED illuminates, the device can be started, but it is advisable to let it charge for at least 3.5 hours to achieve a sufficient charge.
    The device will show a solid green LED once the device is fully charged.
    Starting in BlackBerry Tablet OS 2.0.1:
    Once the yellow LED begins pulsating indicating charging mode, if the BlackBerry PlayBook is disconnected from the charger, the following graphic will be displayed on the screen, indicating charging is not complete, and to reconnect the power source. The graphic will be displayed for 20 seconds before the BlackBerry® PlayBook powers off if the power source is not reconnected. The same graphic will also be displayed if the BlackBerry PlayBook is turned on and there is not sufficient power to perform the boot process.
    If the BlackBerry PlayBook is plugged into a power source, and the power button is pressed to power on the device, the following graphic will be displayed if there is not sufficient power to perform the boot process. If this occurs, the BlackBerry PlayBook should be left plugged in to gain enough charge to boot.
    Additional Information
    Turning off the BlackBerry PlayBook and using standby mode.
    Checking the battery power levelOn the status bar, tap the battery icon. When the battery power level is low, the BlackBerry PlayBook tablet will display a notification.

    Pause apps when you show the home screen or switch between apps  On the status bar, tap the Options icon, select the General tab and set the Application Behavior switch to Paused
    With the upgrade to PlayBook OS 2.1.0.1032 the following message may be displayed when connecting the Playbook to a PC using the micro-USB cable:
    Unable to charge battery with connected source
    This message is displayed because the voltage provided is insufficient for charging. The USB voltage is limited to 384mA even if the maximum tolerance is 500mA. The voltage is limited to 384mA by design to avoid violating the USB specification which states USB devices cannot draw more than 500mA from the USB port.

  • BlackBerry playbook operating system.

    Good afternoon, 
    I have recently purchased a blackberry playbook 32gb with operating system 2.0.1.358.
    My wife also owns a playbook 16gb with operating system 2.0.1.668.
    When I check for system updates I am advised both via the playbook and when connected to a computer that my playbook is up to date and no update is available.  
    Can I assume that the operating system is dependent on the gb?
    Any advice would be appreciated. 
    Thank you.
    Regards.
    Solved!

    No. The OS version for the Playbooks are the same across the board, regardless of memory size.
    The .668 update was pulled from the servers a few days after the upgrade was released. It has not be been put back or replace, as noted in this other thread, here, on the same topic.
    You're fine with .358
    Rumors abound of the official release of the 2.1 OS very soon.

  • Bought app in order to sync itunes with a blackberry playbook.  Now Itunes will open on my computer but when i plug  my ipods in to charge or sync, itunes is not showing that they are plugged in. Cant charge or anything!

    Obviously not too smart with all this technology.  I puchased a Blackberry Playbook Tablet and wanted to sync my itunes music, so following directions on the Playbook, I downloaded this app - Daniel Bingham Itunes sync - and when I went to my pc, I pulled it up, plugged in my Playbook and it did sync all my music from my Itunes library to the Playbook.  However, now when I plug an ipod in my pc to charge or sync more music, my pc is not showing it recognizes any of my ipods being plugged in.  It makes no mention of any of my ipods being connected!  I also keep getting this "Found New Hardware Wizard" box that keeps popping up everytime I plug an ipod in - it originally showed up when I had Playbook plugged in to download all its info (I think) but it never completes, saying not compatible - so I click cancel. I have since clicked on remove New found hardware but it still pops up. Why does it continue to show with every Ipod now?  Any idea on what I can do to repair this situation?  Please help!

  • HT204266 I am trying to connect a blackberry playbook to the Mac.  I have OS 10.5.1 and it says I need OS 10.6.  Is that a free update or do I have to purchase a new OS?  I just want to load music on to the playbook.

    Trying to connect a blackberry playbook to the Mac.  It says I need OS6.  Is that a free update or do I have to buy a whole new operating system?  Just want to download some music to the playbook.  Also, is it possible to use a iTunes card directly to the playbook and bypass the Mac?  Thanks for any info you can provide.

    The Snow Leopard 10.6 DVD should still be available from Apple for $20. You will have to call Apple Customer Care 1-800-692-7753 or 1-800-676-2775 to purchase it. It may still be in the Legacy Products list. The App Store which is required to download 10.7 or 10.8 is part of the 10.6.6 update.
    If they no longer have any in stock you will have to buy it from eBay or Apple resellers that still have stock. But you will have to pay a premium since the DVDs are no longer being made. Snow Leopard DVDs are already up to $100 on Amazon.
