Why I can not unlock the record when close a page?

I develop a jsp page as client,the jsp application use a business componment with statefull application module.i call a database rowset's lock function in jsp page to lock a record,now,after i close the jsp page without commit and rollback,the record is not unlocked,until i restart the oc4j application server.how can i unlock the record when close the page without commit and rollback?????

Li Ping:
If you lock a row in the course of a transaction, you cannot unlock the row until the end of transaction (either rollback or commit). DBMS doesn't allow this.
Alternatively, you can try to delay locking of the row. E.g., you can try using optimistic locking. Please see the Java Doc for oracle.jbo.Transaction if you're interested in optimistic locking.
Thanks.

Iphone 4 is stuck. I have tried a master reset and it didn't work. it won't slide to unlock or power off. I did somehow get to the passcode screen but it didn't let me enter anything. I have also tried on a pc through itunes but since I can't unlock it, it won't let me do that either.

Can an unlocked at&t be used on verizon now that verizon is using SIM's?

Can an unlocked AT&T Galaxy s4 be used on Verizon now that Verizon is using SIM cards?

No, because the AT&T model doesn't have the CDMA radios for the voice network that Verizon Wireless uses. The data probably won't work either because AT&T and Verizon Wireless uses different frequencies for their data networks.

My Ipad is in a locked rotation. How can I unlock it? carolynmunson

My Ipad is in a locked rotation. How can I unlock it? carolynm.

Is there a lock symbol at the top of the screen next to the battery indicator ? If there is, then depending on what you've got Settings > General > Use Side Switch To set to (rotation lock or mute notifications), then you can lock/unlock the rotation by the switch on the right hand side of the iPad, or via the taskbar : double-click the home button; slide from the left; and it's the icon far left; press home again to exit the taskbar. The function that isn't on the side switch is set via the taskbar instead : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4085
If there isn't a lock symbol then try a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

Any way to unlock the ipad without having to restore it through itunes? Or some how pull photos and videos prior to restoring? Any help please. Thank you. CHRIS

When you have important videos/photos on your iPad, you should backup frequently.

‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just canceling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.
 Cheers, Tom

My ipod is locked. I have forgotten my password. How can I unlock it?

I have forgotten my password. Have tried combinations and now my ipod is locked.
How can I unlock my Ipod?

You do not have to restore as new. You can restore fom backup since the screen-lock passcode isnot in the backup. ALso, if iTunes asks for the passcode andyu can't enter the passcode place the iPod in recovery mode and then restore. For recovery mode:

Hi,
Try a Reset of the Phone... You will Not Lose Any Data...
Turn the Phone Off...
Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
The Apple logo will Appear and then Disappear...
Usually takes about 10 - 15 Seconds...
Turn the Phone On...
If that does not help... See Here:

How can I unlock an iPhone through a computer?

So my phone got water damage, and the screen no longer works. It still functions but I have to use siri for everything. So i just decided to buy a new one. I wanted to back up my phone to itunes on my computer so I can put the new stuff on my computer, but since it wont let me back it up if i have no pass code for the iPhone, and clearly i cant enter it because my screen is not functioning. Is there a way i can open my phone with out touching it or enter the code in on itunes? Without touching the touch screen? oh and it's still asking me for the code on the last computer I backed up to.

No, you can't unlock it from the computer. If you previously synced it to a different computer, and you still have that, it won't ask for a passcode on that one.

I have 2 ipod touches. I backed up the new one with old's info. The old one will not unlock with the password I had wrote down and I tried my new ones password. How can I reset the old ipod without affecting the new one and how can I unlock the old one?

Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

how can i unlock my iphone from the us?? please help

If you are referring to a lock to a specific cell carrier, so you can use the iPhone with a different carrier, only the cell carrier to whom the phone is locked can authorize unlocking. You will need to contact the carrier.

ADMIN CAN'T UNLOCK SYSTEM PREFS!!! THIS IS A BUG, PEOPLE!

Ever since I upgraded to Maverick, I haven't been able to change my locked system preferences. They just won't unlock, no matter what I do. Everywhere I've gone to get some clarity on this problem, all anybody asks is if I'm the Admin, like I'm some kind of moron who doesn't know that if you click the lock and enter your password, the lock will unlock. Yes, I'm the Admin, mine is the only account on my MacBook Pro, everything worked fine before I upgraded, and now what I get is this:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ubGAD-v_ODs
For those of you who require a visual of the problem to see that it's NOT happening because users just don't know how to work the lock, I beg you…please look at this 7 second YouTube video. Every lock in system preferences behaves just like this. That's the only consistency I've found. I've been researching this for days now and while it seems that tons of people are having the same problem, completely unable to either lock or unlock their preference settings, nobody anywhere seems to have a clue as to how to definitively fix this problem. It's not Maverick because I've read posts from other users who are complaining about the same behavior from Lion and Mountain Lion. I've exhausted what little Unix I know with killall commands and I'm tired of shooting in the dark, trying solutions that work for some people but haven't worked at all for me.
I'm not a new user. I've been using Macs since the first Macs came out, so I know how to click the lock to change my preferences. It's not my keychain as I've already done repairs on that. I've restarted every time I tried something new, but that didn't help. The fixes that I've read people have tried and found success with are not consistent and none of them have worked for me.
I'm just guessing but in my opinion, the most likely reason for this is that something has gone horribly wrong with my permissions. I'm just not sure how to fix that, assuming my permissions are even the problem. And since everything was fine until I upgraded to Maverick, my best guess is that it happened during my last system update. It would explain why sometimes the fixes people are trying work and sometimes they don't. Maybe the update changed different settings for my Mac than the people who've fixed their issue had. I'd love to know if anyone else noticed that the problem started right after a system update, particularly since it's also happening to people who are using older OS versions before Maverick.
But more than that, what I REALLY want to know is how to fix this. I don't want to keep randomly trying stuff. I need a good, clean fix. Since none of the Apple experts here seem to have any idea as to even why this is happening, much less how to solve the problem, I can only conclude that THIS HAS TO BE A BUG and the only fix is yet another system update that patches whatever is making this lock thing happen. Could it be an installer issue that's fouling things up? Could it be a problem with the App Store's delivery of the updates? I sure hope somebody finds a solution real soon, because while I can't unlock my prefs, at least they're locked. I really feel bad for the people who can't lock theirs. I really believe that the two problems are related.
CAN ANYBODY TELL ME WITH ANY CERTAINTY HOW TO FIX THIS AND WHAT TO DO TO KEEP IT FROM HAPPENING AGAIN?!!!
(sorry for all the caps )

Hi Mac Warrior,
I have the same issue. Just after a restart, everything works but after few minutes, the issue comes back.
Moreover, when I try to switch to another user account, a white screen appears without the possibility to do anything else than using the power button to shut it off.
I hope a fix will come faster.
Not sure that will help but I have error logs when I open User preferences :
