First impression​s and fast feedback

Hello, I just bought 3 days ago a PB and it's nice but, so far is not so helpful as I wished.
Mainly is insane that is not possible to work with messages (emails) without bridge. When I fly what I can do? ...nothing... But also it should be possible to reconfigure an account without a bridge! or a system that will sync emails/messages with device in case Rim doesn't want let us use emails like Ipad does. And I cannot understand why.
Browser is awesome but I had to restart PB couple times because no error displayed but flash player was unable to start. The load bar was unable to run to the end so no error displayed....just guessing....then restarted PB....
Sometimes the Wifi is freezing acquiring IP.
keyboard is not so good as on the iphone like, i think it's just  a sw trouble.....and when you try to copy/paste sometimes display is vibrating up&down unallowing to do any of the actions above....
I will hope in every single update i will see

The native PIM (email, calendar, etc.) is coming... hopefully sooner than later.
I personally like the Bridge, as it exactly mirrors my on-device email and there is no "second-editing" of the device email messages to delete and reconcile back to my Playbook. To me, that has been seamless.
But good luck, I think you are going to see some great things happening here.

  • T500 first impressions and questions

    I just received my computer this afternoon and I have been playing with it for the last couple
    of hours. I thought I would share my first impressions:
    Like I have been told, the build quality seems solid and quite impressive.
    I am surprised by how much I like the simple, dated appearance of the notebook. The
    off center screen isn't something that I find noticeable. And although I don't like how much
    the 9 cell battery sticks out the back, it is one of those things where the performance
    is worth the price. All in all, I feel that the appearance is very discreet.
    I don't like that there are only 3 USB ports, but I knew what I was getting into. I didn't realize
    how close together they are and I hope that I don't run into problems when I need to plug
    multiple items in.
    Thus far, the system runs extremely quiet and quite cool.
    The startup/shutdown is much slower than I thought it would be (windows vista, SSD,GHz)
    but I haven't really tried to optimize it because I am waiting for the arrival of my windows 7
    disk. I just anticipated a faster and more responsive boot/load/etc time with the build
    specs I chose.
    I do not find that there is any noticeable flex in my keyboard. I obviously haven't used it much,
    but so far so good. I was surprised by how small the touchpad area is, but I hope that is something
    I get used to and something that is balanced out by the touchpoint technology.
    I haven't tried to watch or listen to anything yet so I don't really know how I feel about that
    aspect.
    I still haven't figured out many of the intricacies and options presumably because I come
    from using XP (which I regret not downgrading to) and am also not used to business class
    laptops.
    I was wondering what the best way to get the gunk left behind after the removal of the windows vista sticks offer?
    Am I correct in assuming that I can use the fingerprint reader as my master password for firefox?
    If so, is there an easy to follow guide that someone can link me to? I have tried to look it up, but
    haven't encountered anything that has been too helpful. I am not extremely proficient when it comes
    to setting up these types of things.

    I know that I also responded to your other posting on this matter, but especially during video playback you can improve the colors quite a bit using the video drivers options.

    You may have noticed my other post about the display. I am overwhelmingly disappointed.
    I brought it to a non-discerning friend for a second opinion and after watching a short
    amount of video and looking at a couple of pictures side by side with other computers
    she seconded the extreme lack of quality.
    One of the video clips involved a lady with blond hair and my friend noted that on the t500
    her hair appeared almost white because of the lack of colour

  • Good Morning! As a feedback, I still prefer the physical purchase instead of downloads. It suppose to be easier and faster and always end up being slower, annoying and frustrating. I just want to download the software Mountain Lion that I have purchased

    Good Morning! As a feedback, I still prefer the physical purchase instead of downloads. It suppose to be easier and faster and always end up being slower, annoying and frustrating. I just want to download the software Mountain Lion that I have purchased. Redeem is a pain. How do I redeem my purchase without ERROR or COULD NOT RECOGNISE , the code that you have sent to me!!!

    It appears PowerMacs (your profile) aren't supported.
    Check that your computer is compatible with Mountain Lion/Mavericks.
    To check the model number hold down the option/alt key, go to the Apple menu and select System Information.
    iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) model number 7,1 or higher
    MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) model number 5,1 or higher
    MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) model number 3,1 or higher
    MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer) model number 2,1 or higher
    Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer) model number 3,1 or higher
    Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer) model number 3,1 or higher
    Xserve (Early 2009) model number 3,1 or higher
    Your Mac needs:
    OS X v10.6.8 or OS X Lion already installed
    2 GB or more of memory (More is better - 4 GB minimum seems to be the consensus)
    8 GB or more of available space

  • Lenovo ThinkPad T430s - first impressions and issues

    I bought ThinkPad T430s last week and just wanted to write down my thoughts, first impressions and the issues I ran into.
    I am very pleased with the laptop in terms of hardware - solid and nice build quality, understated style and (relatively) light weight. The screen is sharp, sound is good enough for me (I am no audiophile) and I am getting used to the chiclet keyboard - which feels just a little springy.
    But I am not pleased with the software. There is just too much bloatware on the system and some of it is hard to get rid of.
    SugarSync
    Evernote
    Lenovo MyCloud
    VeriSign VIP Access
    Intel AppUp
    and the biggest offender - Lenovo SimpleTap -- You can't get rid of the SimpleTap without uninstalling the individual apps first.
    It would be nice if the system showed a dialog box that said "Hey, here are some cool apps we highly recommend and you may want to look at", instead of pre-installing all these stupid apps.
    On top of that I ran into the Windows updates failing issue.
    So I ended up specnding 4+ hours just to get the system right.
    Lenovo and Microsoft need to understand that they need to deliver an excellent and functional experience to users and not push any stupid system that they have come up with just to make an extra buck.
    Look at Apple products. People love Apple products (I don't, but I do admire them) because of the simple and functional experience they provide.
    In short install just what is necessary. You can let users know that there are other goof programs but leave it up to the users.

    Thanks for your response ThorsHammer.
    In fact that is exactly what I am going to do this weekend.
    I am in the middle of posting another message asking for recommendations and experience on the absolute minimum I can get away with.
    Right now I am thinking Windows 7, System Update and Power Manager.
    In my case, I installed the following:
    Windows 7
    Intel chipset drivers
    Intel WIFI driver (wifi driver only)
    Intel Ethernet driver
    Lenovo Power Management driver
    Lenovo Power Manager
    Optimus video drivers for Intel HD 4000 and NVIDIA 5200M
    RealTek audio driver - I think this also installed Dolby Home Theater v4
    Ricoh Media driver
    Lenovo Ultranav driver
    Webcam driver
    I don't install much more than that.  I like to manually check the download areas for updates so I don't install Lenovo ThinkPad System Update.

  • CS-4 First Impressions

    First impressions. I know, quite out of date but with all the apparent problems...
    System is a Lenovo 3000 series AMD 64x2 3800+
    Power supply upgraded
    Memory 2 gig Crucial (maximum for the MB)
    Video card is Nvidia GeForce 7300 GS - Latest drivers. Not on the supported list.
    Display is 1280 x 1024.
    Windows XP Home SP-3, Net Framework 3.5 SP 1, and other Forum recommended updates that aren't handled by Windows Update.
    1.05 TB in three drives. (1 K=1024)
    Working with a 6144x4111 pixel 16 bit ProPhoto digital photograph:
    As installed, in the trial download, GUI settings, Photoshop swap file is NOT on the system drive.
    The start up time is about the same as with CS-3. Faster than CS.
    Top menu bar text is rough and appears broken until I put the curser over the text. Then it clears up.
    Click & drag zoom works like a charm.
    "Toss" has a quarter to half second delay before the image moves.
    Lag behind brush is quite noticeable even when zoomed in.
    Brush border is rough & jagged. An indicator that the brush smoothness slider is set to full smooth?
    I saw no delay with typing. (I have to look at the keys and when I looked up after the last letter it was there and sharp.)
    A new learning curve for the palates IS going to need to be climbed. Or is there a "Look like CS, CS2, CS3" toggle somewhere? (NOTE the "First Impressions" above!)
    Now for the interesting part. This test showed the same results as a test, same file but reduced to 3074 pixels width and in 8-bit color. I was doing a "see if file size makes a difference" test.
    There was no difference in behavior with the system running "free" or with ZoneAlarm Pro and BitDefender running in the background. I have BitDefender set to NOT load on computer boot.
    With the stock Open GL settings and a below grade video card, the brief test gave better than expected results with the main down grade being brush lag.
    Just my observations with a video card that may be pushed beyond what can be reasonably expected of it and settings not tuned as per recommendations here.
    One thing that I haven't seen mentioned before is the new ability to re-tune the settings in adjustment layers. There have been many times I would have wanted that ability in the past.
    Bill

    let me make sure I get this; the phone, it is a phone after all, does not have good signal, and it will not pair properly with bluetooth, but you are saying 'everything else is fine'!!!!!!! Why don't you return it, and go get yourself an itouch? You will have all the apps, etc. Then get a mifi from sprint/verizon and you are all set. Then, go get yourself a proper phone with a decent carrier and you will be all set.

  • First impressions (mixed bag)

    My first impressions after having BT Infinity installed on Friday are a mixed bag. Speed tests extremely good, 76Mb down/ 18Mb up, pretty maxed out on a short line (cab < 300 metres). However, my gripes.....
    P2P is heavily shaped. No problem, afterall I was on BT ADSL and used to traffic shaping being lifted in early hours of the morning to do download. However, uploads are permently 24/7 throttled to 1Mb, which I do not think it acceptable.
    I run an FTP server and regularly upload to it. FTP port is permentaly throtlled to 8Mb upload. I know this is still fast but I think to artificially slow FTP upload down 24/7 is again unacceptable.
    Home hub 3 is rubbish and a security risk. It permently keeps port 161 open (as tested by test my shields) and port forwarding seems broken. I thought I had a faulty one but after doing some research it seems that these are common issues!
    Needless to say initially impressed, but now I'm more annoyed with the service. Like car with a top speed of 150MPH but can never do more than 60MPH, even on a empty road!

    Thanks for your advice guys. I already subscribe to SwissVPN as I have always done on ADSL to bypass traffic shaping, and it used to max out my 4Mb connection but that seems capped too at 8Mb down and about 1Mb up. I pay about £6 a month.
    Can you recommened another VPN provider that can provide higher speeds than this? I wouldn't mind a US VPN as I guess this would allow to access media content in the US (hulu etc) but would really prefer highest speed VPN possible for under £10 a month? What VPN speeds to you get using StrongVPN?
    A basic feature such as port forwarding I would expect on the cheapest of routers. What the point in a router if it can't route? This must be causing BT support calls that aren't really needed if router worked as intended.

  • Aperture 2.0 - first impressions are very good!!

    I downloaded and installed the trial. My hobby is underwater photography so I need an application that provides flexibility with expose. I have imported photos and I am very impressed with how they have turned out. Aperture 2.0 is the best I have used to this point and that includes LightRoom, Photoshop Elements, Bibble, and several others.
    Several improvements I have noticed in the first hour:
    1)much faster in all aspects. Faster generating previews, updates moving around in the application. I didn't get the spinning beach ball at all.
    2) Repair and Clone - this is much better than the patch. This is something useful in underwater photography as it helps to eliminate minimal backscatter.
    3)Recovery
    4)Definition
    5)Vibrancy
    6)Photos of RAW files look very clean
    There are other items as well, but I will leave it at this.

    Yep, so far so good.
    I really liked the adjustments being on the right, but I'm sure I'll get used to it on the left.
    The added screen-space is handy when not in FS mode.
    RAW D70 files look cleaner and less noisier.
    Repair/Clone tool is pretty sweet!
    Feels pretty snappy when adjusting. Crop/Straighten work well together and don't lag.
    Highlights/Shadows still slows things down if checked, but not a big deal for me, as I do things in a certain order.
    Anyway, lookin' good. Cheers.

  • 5.7 for iPhone: Smarter and Faster Chat

    At Skype, we work hard to incorporate your ideas to continue building a great app that helps you do more with the people you love, whenever you’re apart. In fact, on the Skype for iPhone team, we personally read each piece of user feedback and categorize comments by hand to determine what to work on next, so your input really matters.
    In the Skype 5.7 for iPhone update, we addressed some of the most common user suggestions. We can’t wait for you to download the new version to take advantage of the new features inspired by your feedback:
    Save and delete photo
    If you want to save a memorable photo to your camera roll or delete a sent photo from a chat, simply press and hold the image and the options will appear.
    Faster chat load time
    Now when you receive a notification and tap it to open the app, the message will be there waiting for you without any delays.
    Avatars for all chat
    You can now see all avatars for groups and people, and if they’re changed on other platforms, they’ll update in the app too so you always have the latest showing.
    People list UI improvements
    In 5.7, we’ve made it easier to find the people list search and filter options, so you can quickly and easily find the person you want to chat with and get started.
    Have a great idea that you want to share? Let us know via the new iOS Ideas group here in the Skype Community. If you’ve not yet downloaded the latest version of Skype for iPhone, you can get the update from the App Store – all you’ll need is iOS 7 or later.

    Does this latest version now show photos immediately in the app if they are sent from another iOS device with the latest version, or from a windows pc with the latest version?
    It still seems confusing about when this works and when this doesnt. Is there some sort of table we can refer to that shows this information based on the sending and receiving devices and versions?
    In fact, I didnt even get the link to open the photo in the cloud, instead I got a message saying it wasnt possible/compatiable (or words to that affect).
    We don't have such "file transfer compatibility matrix" yet. You currently cannot send files from Skype for Windows desktop to Skype for iOS yet. Skype for Windows desktop hasn't received the update yet to add support for the new cloud file transfer option.
    @Claudius
    I continue to shake my head in dismay at this, given that Windows is by far the most widely used desktop platform in the world...
    However thanks for taking the time to answer, its appreciated.
    But it does confirm that Im sticking with v4.17.135 on iOS. 
    I hope you can understand and provide feedback to your developers how totally ridiculous it is that users are forced to stay on old versions in order not to be locked out of such basic functionality as photo sending? Normally the first question developers ask is 'are you running the latest version'. In this case, its the latest version(s) that break the functionality.
    In addition, as a paid user for many years (10 years or more i think) owning two SkypeIn numbers what I havent seen is any roadmap or comment about when the numerous problems associated with receiving skype calls, voicemail, and call forwarding will be resolved?
    How long are paid users expected to wait?

  • Galaxy S6 - First impressions.

    I upgraded my Sim only deal to refresh deal and got myself a non edge version of the Galaxy S6 in the process - I am still playing with it but here are my first impressions. Build quality is excellent (even the packaging is very well made!), the phone feels very solid and very well made - I was worried that the glass back would make the phone 'slippery' in the hand, but the opposite seems to be the case - the phone fits very well in the hand and feels safe. The buttons are very well placed and the seperate volume buttons seem better than the rocker type. The phone did get quite warm during the initial setup and update phase, I put this down to a lot of updates and wifi activity - no sign of this since. The phone responds very quickly and is very smooth - I don't notice any lag at all. One thing I do find myself doing on this phone is catching the capactive buttons by accident, I am putting this down to me just getting used to a larger phone. Camera - I am no photographer but the camera is excellent, taking very good pictures. I took the dog out last night and took some photos see how it worked in low light and I was very impressed. Video is equally impressive and the Ultra HD video is simply excellent quality - one issue here is while the UHD video plays ok on the phone, my laptop is having issues playing the video without it breaking up - I am assuming this is a media player issue. I will try the UHD playback on the TV later to see how this works. Call quality seems much better than my A3 - and texts seem to send a lot quicker, I am assuming this is just because of the extra grunt of the S6. It came with Lollipop 5.0.2 and asked to do an update, which I did and it updated to 5.0.2! It appears O2 have rolled back the 5.1.1 update I was expecting it to update to, no doubt this will be addressed in time. Lollipop - this is the first time I have used this on a phone, and it seems pretty good - I especially the quick camera or dialer launch from the lock screen - from the lock screen simply drap the camera icon and the camera launches pretty much instantly, same for the dialer. I also like the improved notifications and the ability to do a quick reply to a text directly from the notification. It comes with a adaptive fast charger, and indeed does charge fast - while charging there is a notification of how long left - as a bit of a test today I was on about 50% and plugged it into a normal charger, it told me three and half hours to charge, when plugged into the fast charger it the notification said 48 mins! It appears you can get a full charge in about an hour and ten mins - impressive. Screen - it has to been seen to believed - I would say this is the best screen I have ever seen on a smartphone, it will be interesting to put it side by side with my friends Note 3 for comparison. One last thing that impressed me was the bundled earphones - they sound quite impressive! I will do a fuller review once I've used it for a few days but my initial opinion - everything I expected it would be, and then some!

    I really like your first impressions ! Not too technical, everybody can understand it (even me!) and addressing details that are decisive for a lot of people when choosing a new mobile.I can tell that you have put "heart" in this review/first impressions....I can imagine you having like a "little" list, in your head,of things you are curious to know about the phone and trying them one by one... well done! I find it truly useful!

  • Got my mac mini intel singel core yesterday!! first impressions !

    hi to all,yesterday i got my mac mini singel core 1,50 GHz 512 ram 60 s-ata, here are my first impressions:
    of course it looks like the same;ir-sensor for the frontrow remote control is at the right side,inside the drive slot (very nice solution).It boots up faster than my old mac mini G4 1,25 Ghz 1GB ram.first of all i did a xbench test,here are my results:old mac mini g4 1,25 1 Gb ram xbench points=36,37; new mac mini intel single core xbench points=63,37 !!!Very nice and smooth system import from the old ppc os x was no problem using firewire. virtual pc 7 does not work any more.
    overall rating after 1 day, very good outstanding product
    greetings tobias
    mac mini / pb G3 wallstreet   Mac OS X (10.4.5)   mac mini single core 1,5 GHZ

    I also got the Core Solo and so far am very much satisfied with it. One of my highest Xbench scores was 65.40, twice as fast the score of the lowerend G4 Mac Mini. The feel of the system's respondsiveness is certainly on par with other Intel based Macs I tried at the local Apple stores. Boot time is under 30 seconds most of the time. One weird thing I noticed is that when open " About This Mac", the system identifies the processor as a 1.5GHz Intel Core Duo. However, System Profiler says it's a Core Solo. Well, I will only open "About This Mac" from now on
    To answer your question, Tobias, 720p plays awesome but 1080p not looking good. The new graphic eventhough integrated is still an improvement over the graphic of the old model. Why? It supports Core Image and you get all the nice effects in Dashboard, also HD contents play much better obviously.
    512MB of RAM is not enough. I'm glad that I didn't buy the Core Duo because with that $200 in difference, I can up the fund to buy a pair of 1GB DDR2 memory and a 7200RPM hard drive for upgrades. The hard drive on the Mac Mini has always been a weak link. SATA is supposed to be faster than the old IDE ATA, but from what I've seen so far, it's pretty much the same.

  • FiOS TV: First Impressions of a New Customer

    I’ve been a DirecTV customer for about 10 years. D* has been my primary provider except for 2 years when Dish Network was. I had switched to E* because D* had something like 12 HD channels while E* had the VOOM Network channels. I dropped E* like a hot potato when they dropped VOOM, and D* took the lead in HD content.
    I’ve had DVRs for the past 10 years. I have a 55” Hitachi plasma HDTV, as well as HD DVD and Blu-ray players. So basically, I’m a well-educated consumer with lots of grounds for comparison.
    I just had FiOS installed over the weekend. I switched for 3 reasons: to save money, get more HD content, and to get better HD quality. Here’s how I think that FiOS TV measures up to D* and E*:
    HD Quality: D* and E* both have very good HD quality, E* probably a little better than D*. FiOS is better than both though; it simply has the best HDTV picture that I have seen – the colors are more vivid and the picture sharper. It is very near Blu-ray quality. It’s beautiful, really.
    HD Content: I’m a big fan of premium movie channels; yes, good old fashioned linear movie channels. I use NetFlix too but sometimes I just want to channel surf. As I write this I’m watching “Shooter” with Mark Wahlberg. I never would have rented this movie, or watched it on demand, but it’s pretty good.
    Including East and West Coast feeds, FiOS has 42 HD premium movie channels compared to 15 on D*, and for just $30/month. There’s no comparison really.
    Pricing: Bundling my phone, Internet and TV with FiOS will save me $90/month for the first 3 months and $50/month for 9 months after that, for a total savings of approximately $720. Plus my Internet speed went from 3 mbps with DSL to 20 mbps with FiOS.
    DVR: The best DVR that I’ve had was an UltimateTV DirecTV receiver that I bought 10 years ago – that box rocked, it had PIP, a great guide, and it was very responsive.
    When I upgraded to HD I got the original DirecTivo – {please keep your posts courteous}  No PIP, a super-slow guide, no video or audio when viewing the guide or menus, etc. This crappy D* HD DVR was part of my motivation for switching to E*.
    Dish Network’s DVR was very good, almost as good as UltimateTV. It had PIP, a true 16:9 guide, and was easily extendable via a USB hard drive.
    When I went back to D* I upgraded to their HR2* series DVR and it was pretty good, much better than the old DirecTivo. It had a big hard drive. The guide was OK, 4:3 stretched to 16:9. It was hard to change Favorite lists though. It was also a little sluggish, and it didn’t have PIP.
    The best thing about FiOS’s DVR is that it is very responsive; when changing channels, the channels come up quickly. The DVR controls are also quick. I like the idea of the guide – different colors for different types of shows (red for movies, green for sports, etc.) but the non-stretched 4:3 aspect ratio is TERRIBLE; I don’t need a true 16:9 guide but at least stretch the 4:3 guide to 16:9!
    The hard drive is tiny – only 20 hours of HD content. However, I’ve seen rumors on the Internet that Verizon will be adding external hard drive support in ’09.
    No PIP currently but the box has DLB and technically will support PIP; Verizon just has to do the work on the software side. And they should!
    Installation: The install went OK. The installer was an older guy and he was very good. The only bummer was that when another contractor previously ran the fiber to my house he cut it for some reason. So the installer had to call in his boss to splice it. I don’t know if this affects the quality or not but it freaks me out a little bit.
    Customer service: Poor so far. I was supposed to have the Extreme HD package but only had the Essentials package when the box was activated. I had to talk to literally a dozen people before I got to someone who could actually help me. With D* and E* I usually got someone who could help right away, and they could push the signal immediately. With FiOS, it took hours to upgrade the service.
    Every system has its warts and FiOS has a few. However, all in all FiOS seems like a darn good deal! IMHO, it’s a keeper!
    Message Edited by KaLin on 12-15-2008 10:35 PM

    Welcome to the forums!
    I had DirecTV before I made the switch to Fios.  We had plenty of issues with DirecTV that made my wife and I so frustrated that we had to switch to something else.  DTVs hardware was a joke and we would always lose our satellite signal during your average rain shower, even though our sat signal always showed high 90s during clear days.  Their DVRs were the worse and we found ourselves resetting them several times a week just because they frequently locked up or started behaving strangely.
    Fios definitely has their issues, especially their DVR.  I'm crossing my fingers that most of their issues will be resolved with this upcoming major firmware release.  You should report back to us in a month and give us an update on your impressions after having Fios for a while.

  • Reg Drag and Drop Feedback in Captivate 7

    Hi,
    I have a drag and drop in a slide (Captivate 7) as a knowledge check.
    Problem: I need a drag and drop interaction's correct feedback to reset when the learner returns to the drag and drop slide later or clicks the back button from the next slide. Currently the correct feedback is present.
    Background: The learner completes the drag and drop and gets the 'Correct!' feedback from show action and 'Incorrect' feedback from the existing captivate failure feedback. The learner then continues the lesson by going to the next slide. The problem is that, if the learner returns to the drag and drop, the 'Correct!' feedback still shows even though the drag source items have reset to their original locations and the learner can redo the drag and drop interaction. Clicking the 'Reset' button does not remove the existing 'Correct!' feedback. Even if the learner redoes the interaction and does the opposite (e.g. if the learner got it wrong the first time, but then gets it correct this second time), the existing feedback does not change from 'Correct.'
    Any ideas on how to fix this? I understand we have to create advanced actions. Please tell me the exact steps in this instance and whether i have to execute the actions on enter or exit.
    Note: I tired to read the posts related to this. But creating the advanced options step was not given.
    Thank you.

    OK.  Just asking because I saw one of the Adobe people chime in on a similar question a day or two back.
    Unlike quiz questions, the Success and Failure Captions for drag and drop interactions appear to have Item Names which suggests they can be hidden via Advanced Actions.  You should try setting an On Slide Enter action to hide them and see if that resolves your issue.

  • First 'impression' of Safari 3.0 Beta in the first 5 minuites of use.

    I'm using Windows Vista Home Premium and just downloaded Safari 3.0 for Windows Public Beta (Not included Quicktime)
    The installation is processed smoothly.
    I used it 5 minuites and my first impression is nothing but BUGs BUGs BUGs.
    Alway Crash:
    1. When click anything concerning Bookmarks, Safari crashes. (In other word, cannot use Bookmarks.)
    2. When fill in any form, Safari crashes.
    3. When access any pages with Javascript, Safari crashes.
    Sometime Crash:
    1. When access some pages, Safari randomly crashes. Ordinary pages such as this website itself. The symtom is both CPU core work reach 100% and needed to restart computer.
    2. Randomly show message like "file not found, need reinstall." in any page, of course, even this page.
    Bugs:
    1. Cannot click on the button on the taskbar to minimize.
    2. When minimize and restore, the Safari window going in restore down state.
    3. Memory leak as I monitering RAM usage: increases more than 100MB when open Safari.
    4. Font smoothing shows almost illegible.
    Let down function:
    1. Safari 3.0 for Windows Public Beta is the slowest web browser among all of browsers in my notebook. (IE7, Firefox, Opera, Cameleon Browser.)
    STOP! saying "This is just a BETA!".
    I love to test beta software and report bugs. I'm not a techical geeks so my testing method is to use them just as I always use in everyday life. No tweak or special use I squeesh to the program. I understand the BETA is not FINAL and of course, have more bugs than FINAL.
    But this is not what I call bugs. I call "cannot be used."
    How can you guy call this "PUBLIC" Beta? Have your programmer even see it in action in Windows before release to public?
    This application is the second Apple application I experienced. (The first is iTunes.) It totally let me down because when compare with Internet Explorer 7 Beta 1 I tested last year, Safari 3.0 Public Beta is not in my sight.
    How can you apply guy convince me that Apple is better than Microsoft since I compare just an essential small program and found no pros, even both are in beta state?
    Hope to see Beta 2 with no major crash in the first 5 minuites usage.

    Downgrading via Archive and install is notoriously unreliable. It is much safer to simply retrieve your backup you made before you installed the update after an erase and install. Of course you make at least two backups. Selective file recovery may be in order, such as found in migrating from PowerPC to Intel Macs:

  • ITunes 11.0 First Impressions

    1. My first impression of the user interface is that it's "square" and "flat".
       Esthetically I don't see it as an improvement. To the contrary, I think
       the former interface is nicer.
    2. After starting iTunes 11.0 it sat there for 1/2 an hour with the message
       "Sending Information to Apple", then a dialog box displayed with:
       We cannot complete your iTunes Store request
       An unknown error occurred (4002)
       Note that three subsequent attempts resulted in the same iTunes match error.
    3. Could not find a way to change the BRIGHT WHITE background.  I hate the white
       background for various reasons.  I'm sure many other customers preferred the dark
        background as well.
    4. Tried syncing my iPhone and had to cancel.  It was copying 49 apps, I believe
       some of these were from my iPad.  Had to then restart iTunes.
    5. Movies in grid view have large gaps in between the rows of movies.
       It is UGLY!  Is it just me, or do others have these huge gaps?
    6. Looking at my music, I see no way to view the songs in a list view.
       Where are the convenient buttons which quickly allowed changing views?
       Now there is just unused space where they used to be.  And all of
       the menu items under View -> Column Browser are disabled. 
       Why???
    7. Hey, at least they brought back color icons, which Apple deemed that
       no one liked!  (That was sarcasm).
    Overall I am extremely dissapointed with this update, and it has me wondering how the
    most valuable company in the world could release something that looks more at home
    on a Linux desktop.

    It's terrible. There is no symmetry in the views anymore. It is so bad, that it will take a lot of testing for me to figure out what is wrong with it. The only view that allows different views is the playlist view. I can't get an "artist list" for all my music. I can only get it for the currently selected playlist. I suppose I could make a playlist with all music. Where did sort by album by artist/year go? That's the view I used the most. I found it in the songs view. But there I can't see the album covers. It's so unsymmetrical now. Where did the status bar go that told me how many songs I selected and what the total play time is? I don't know if all my songs are there. The albums view and the videos views are worthless if you have 15,000 songs and videos. They just rearranged things. There's nothing new. There are things missing. The thing that needed fixing was synchronization. All that should be removed from iTunes, but they didn't make any changes to that. Can I go back to iTunes 10?

  • Encoder and analog feedback together

    I am using a PCI 7344 board that will operate up to 4 axis with both encoder and transducer feedback.
    The user will have the ability to switch between the two types of feedback whilst on the fly with the system momentarily executing a stop command before re-configuring itself in the other mode be it encoder or transducer. This works fine.
    My problem is - when I am in encoder feedback mode, I do not get a feedback reading from my transducer as my primary feedback device is the encoder and as such the output given is for the primary device. I need to be able to see the analog feedback device whilst operating with the encoder and primary feedback.
    I may have a solution to this, by using one of the feedbacks as the secondary feedb
    ack although could not find any information regarding secondary feedback on NI's web site.

    Hello,
    First of all, analog feedback can not be used as secondary feedback. When you are running on analog signal as your primary feedback, you should be able read encoder data calling the Read Encoder Position.flx. When you are running on encoder as your primary feedback, you should be able read analog data calling the Read ADC.flx. If you do the enabling/disabling properly when you are switching from one feedback mode to other, you should be able to read all the signals.
    Hope this helps!
