Forum software problem

Is anyone going to fix this forum software? If I've browsed to the posts from a week ago, say the 4th page of postings, and view a post; when I click 'back' in firefox, I'm taken to the first page of the forum (ie the most current posts). I hope we don't have to live this this...

Hi,
agreed ,  these forum needs a bit of an overhaul, maybe a nice shiny new flex based one with cocomo(or what ever they are calling it these days), just think you could interact with people directly exchange thoughts and code to quickly establish solutions to requests for help. Now that would be a real community based support system.

  • Windows xp pro stalls - blank screen- hardware or software problem?

    Hi Guys,
    My system is about one month old and has been awesome in performance and graphics.
    Suddenly it (windows xp pro) stalls after flashing the windows loading screen and it goes blank. Looks like a software problem?
    I am posting on this forum because when I check cmos, no hard drives are registered.
    I can't get into safe mode, can't get past the administrator/user screen because no mouse operates here and can't select icons with the keyboard.(No admin passwords were set up anyway)
    Booting from CD, repair console doesn't work because it can't find any hard drive.
    Reluctant to do a complete reinstall because of precious stuff on the hard drive.
    Using f8, "last known good..." just gives the same blank screen.
    Using floppy boot, no other drives are recognized.
    If my root directory has been wiped out by a virus or something, how come it gets past post and starts to load windows? If it's merely the graphics driver or similar not loading, how come the cmos shows no hard drive?
    Is this a hardware or software problem? Any help much appreciated.

    THE ANSWER !!
    Hi Guys,
    I finally got to talk to the guy who set up this system and he said that it is normal for RAID drives not to show on BIOS/CMOS. 'Think of it like a vrtual drive' he said. When the black and white initialization screen shows something like: 'Nividia Stripe-healthy'...then THAT is the hard-drive.
    He said that as long as Windows was getting to the loading screen, that means that the computer itself was functioning okay, so don't worry about BIOS, the problem is a file corruption in windows, or virus etc.
    Also he said that when trying to use recovery console or reinstall windows, because the system can only read the RAID drives through a SCSI interface, you have to load the Nvidia SCSI drivers from floppy by pressing f6 when asked to at the bottom of the pale blue screen (from Windows cd boot), before trying to do anything with windows (or windows will just tell you it can't read the drives, as it did before with me.)
    So in the end, I reinstalled windows by that method and everyting seems fine so far. YAY!
    Thanks you people for being kind enough to help someone out. I really appreciate it.

  • Code Formating after Forum Software Upgrade

    Hello SCN Forum Administrators,
    it seems that all code formating which was done with the
    [code]
    Tags was not automatically converted during the Forum Software Upgrade. What can I do to correct my code in the Forum Topic Re: Display ALV GRID with PHP? The message was posted by myself but I can't edit it.
    Best regards
    Gregor

    Hi all,
    the new forum version does contain a filter that can handle the old [code] tags. The problem was that we had to turn it off because it permanently ran into Stackoverflow errors and thus bringing the whole landscape into trouble.
    Now we have to convert all the old [code] markup in all messages with the new {code} markup. We are currently testing this.
    In other words: [code] is no longer supported, the usage of {code} is recommended.
    Regards,

  • Forum software in java

    Hello everyone,
    First of all i am not sure if i should post this here, sorry if it is the wrong place.
    I have been googling looking for forums software made in java but i could not find anything at all. I was wondering if any of you could tell me a good forum software i could use for a web site (open source if possible...)
    Thanks in advance

    Actually this is a rather nice product. It's the custom features created by (or for) Sun that cause the problems.

  • Officejet j6480 sometimes not printing entire image: printer or software problem or conflict?

    Dell Inspiron, windows xp-pro, version 5.1 sp 3,
    software: microsoft digital image 2006
    I've been using digital image (DI) for several years and have never encountered this issue before now, but my printer is new and has some features I may not entirely understand.
    I've created 4 separate images for a t-shirt transfer using DI.  2 images each are set up on an 8.5 x 11 layout, landscape mode.  They were "cut out" and placed on each layout for printing.  On my monitor, each image is a complete image: ie, no part of either image is missing or blocked out.  However, when I print the document, sometimes part of one image doesn't print.  The actual printed piece looks like an object or "blank" box was placed on top of the sheet of paper before printing, printed, and then taken off the printed paper leaving no ink beneath it.
    DI allows you to cut out a photo and use the cut out with no background which is what I've done. The cut out follows the line of the object, dogs head, for example.  The edges are not straight as if in a frame, however when the object is selected for editing, a dotted frame does appear around the edge.  More than one object can be selected at one time and there can be an overlap of these frames, but once the object is deselected the frame disappears.  
    What really has me baffled is that the missing part of the image is squared off on two sides, is always in the same spot on the paper, completely different documents print the same way, you can see where the edge of the missing piece printed, but very light in color, and the document does print out correctly, sometimes.
    Sorry to be so long winded.  I'm trying to preserve the transfer paper since it is expensive and don't want to chance an incomplete printed sheet having to discard it and start over, hoping "this time it will work!"
    Does anyone have any ideas?  I know it sounds like a software problem but it also sounds like a printer problem, or both.

    Hello @rslade , and welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience!
    I see you're having problems printing in colour.  I would like to help!
    Do you have any issues making a colour copy, as opposed to a print?
    I would suggest deleting the printer from your print system, using this document: Uninstalling the Printer Software.
    Once you have deleted it, I would suggest verifying and repairing the disk permissions: About Disk Utility's Repair Disk Permissions feature.
    I would also suggest running your Apple updates:  OS X: Updating OS X and Mac App Store apps
    After the updates, I would recommend reiadding the printer:
    Installing a Mac Printer Driver Using Apple Software Update
    Good luck and please let me know the results of your troubleshooting steps. Thank you for posting on the HP Forums!

  • Is the forum software falling apart?

    Yesterday I posted a note about the stuck communications counter, which happened again, but this post was nowhere to be found and still has not appeared anywhere. And apparently, others make the same experiences. Seems like there are some problems with the internal forum notification system.
    I think some confirmation or note from the forum administration whether or not this is a known issue would be necessary.

    Dude        ! wrote:
    Maybe what the forum management needs is someone in charge with an IT management background understanding the needs of IT professionals when exchanging information. My impression so far is that the people in charge of this forum are some sort of social media analysts, perhaps playing around with Facebook and Twitter all day long. I mean, nothing personal, but the forum software priorities and quality acceptance hardly meets the current community expectation of what the software should do or even how it works or looks like. And it does not even play nicely with any of the new-age computer devices.
    Good point.  I was looking at the installation docs for Jive yesterday, and the thought occurred to me ... how many forum admins (perhaps, "especially Jive based forums") have, by the very nature of the forum subject, a community that is capable of reading and understanding the documentation of the forum software?  Who are professionally equipped to do the admins job themselves?  In other words, who are quite capable (and willing?) to back-check and fact-check claims about the capabilities of the forum software ...
    As I move about other technical support forums, I seem to see a lot more of whatever is used by forums.virtualbox.org, www.unix.com, etc.  Just good, basic forum software.  Nothing fancy, and certainly no attempt at being "social media".   At this point, I think a case could be made for throwing out the idea of 'backward compatibility'.  Just archive the current content, and move to a more appropriate platform with a link to the archives.

  • Thanks Adobe! I LOVE this new forum software!

    As someone who belongs to many, many forums over the years, I've gone through a lot of forum software changes. Generally, the vocal majority raise heck about it, but eventually things settle down and people go about their regular forum use with little effort.
    These new forums are so much "easier on the eyes" than the mind-numbing sea of text we currently have. Some like the new colors, some hate it. Some like avatars & signatures, and some don't. But the reason you come here is for the information, and this new software WILL make it easier to find what you're looking for.
    Macworld.com switched to this very same software last year. They had an obscenely large user base, all of which voiced their opinions repeatedly, to the point where many simply stopped visiting until the switchover was complete. In general, those that don't like change tend to voice their opinions the loudest. The vast majority though, tend to keep quiet and roll with changes. Today, Macworld's forums are running just fine, offer a plethora of new features, and are more active than they ever were previously.
    I have no heavy interest in what Adobe does with these forums because I rarely visit the current ones - mostly because I find them absolutely unreadable. But I'm also betting I'll be using them a whole lot more once this switchover is complete. In fact, I KNOW I will.
    Rather than complaining about change in general, colors, icons, avatars, signatures, bloated code, or whatever silly reason some are coming up with, time would be better spent simply helping to find bugs with what is there. Once the bugs are worked out, Adobe will most likely start looking at "fine-tuning" the look & feel.

    > What I have noticed is that there is a totally different set of aesthetic values being exhibited here between the Users of the Adobe Professional Graphic Arts applications (Photoshop, Illustrator and InDesign) and the people who are almost entirely geared to AV or to web site work and the use of the formerly Macromedia products (such as Dreamweaver).
    Ann, you may be correct. But if functionality is truly the most important feature of Adobe Forums, the WebX format falls dramatically short for my own applications:
    WebX screws any code or script posted, generally making it unusable. For this reason, the Script and Expression areas of the After Effects forum are virtually non-existent. Users go to other places to discuss these features, because it's not practical to do so on the current forums.
    A picture tells a thousand words. When new users come to the WebX forums and want to post a screen grab of their problem project, it's embarrassing to tell them they need to use an external image host to do so.
    Video tells ten thousand words. The ability to easily embed YouTube and other online video content into a post is not just a great convenience, it's a way to teach, inform and demonstrate within the forum, rather than sending users somewhere else mid-discussion.
    I share a number of your criticisms about the Jive Forums, but for me and the community which uses my frequented forums, the Jive system also offers features which are essential for productive use. As I suspect the new system, like the old, will evolve over time, I'm happy to embrace the positives of the change, and hope that any major problems can be resolved in time.

  • Zen 4GB - Software Problems - Don't

    I've had this player for more than 3 months. There are big software problems, every updated firmware is useless and I suggest a big button for reset (you have to use it many times).

    There's one important lesson that I've learned with MP3 players and that is leave firmware updates alone. I've a Sandisk Sansa as well as a Creative V4 and you only have to have a quick look at both forums to see that a large proportion of problems occur as a result of installing these so-called updates. I also have an old i-ri'ver player that is about 5years old and has never been updated and has never given any trouble. In any case why update if it's working okay? What do these updates improve anyway?

  • OpenSource Java/JSP forum software with threded mode support ?

    Hello, could you please help me with finding some (not alfa/beta version) openSource forum software package in Java, which would support tree mode (threaded mode) view over the forum ? I went through all http://java-source.net forums, but with no success.

    I would either complain to Belkin for a fix if there is one or return the card and try a different one. You should not have the problem, but Belkin USB hubs and cards appear to have more problems like yours than other manufacturers' products.
    You might try Sonnet's Tango FW400/USB 2.0 multi-card, for example, or Firewire Direct's 6-port FW800/USB 2.0 card.
    You may also want to check this page for some user reports on related products.

    This is an iPad user to user forum, so you are not addressing Apple. Depending on how many user helpers are on-line, it may take several hours, or longer, to get a response.
    Try this  - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased.

  • NOkia E63 All Software Problems listed, Ignored by...

    here are NOkia E63 All Software Problems listed.
    -- Picture Editor:
    You can Zoom, Rotate a Picture but E63 never allows to Save the edited Picture, Worst SOftware Engeering.
    -- No Calendar Sync with Address Book Events
    Add a Birday/Annivesary event along to a contact, you will never see the event entered to Calendar/neither gets a remainder alarm on that occassion.
    Very Sad to say Nokia has very less knowledged engineers who are not even capable of giving a software which Rs 500 mobile gives with colors.
    -- Memory Card COrrupted and needs a restart of MObile to recongise the Mem Card
    3 to 4 times a day and every time when you switch off and switch on You need to re-insert the memory card(which is supplied along with MObile by Nokia)
    -- Picture Viewer
    Awesome, you cannot open pics with folder wise,
    Open a Pic from folder, delete the that pic, you will be routed back to Home screen instead of folder.
    What a Testing Engineered SOftware.
    and after encryting memopry card, and after decrypting i am not able to see pics on pic viewers.
    but can access to files directly going to Mem card folders.
    ENcrypt and decrypt are juts for name sake, not for functioning and serving the need.
    -- Contacts
    Enter one or two char in search, Say
    Ma
    it lists out
    Mahesh
    Manikanth
    Martin
    Mariya
    though i see the contact Mariya, i cannot scroll down to select that Mariya Contact
    i should have to enter full name.
    then why we need Search option, lets go scrolling down from begining.
    -- Message Inbox
    Wow, Interesting Area,
    1. Just Say i received a message from Number 123456789, now go and save 123456789 as Balaji in Contact.
    Now get back to your Inbox, Surprise, you never see 123456789 updated with COntact Name Balaji, it will stay as 123456789 only, even give a try of Swithc off and Switch on 100 times, its same.
    its new nokia software getting back to 1950s.
    2. Now, one more test:
       You have already saved a friend number 12345 as Balaji in contacts.
       you get a SMS from 12345, well the inbox now promptly shows message from Balaji, now go back to Contacts, and change the number 12345 to any number,
       so now Contact Balaji's number is changed but you will never see this reflected in inbox.
       you will be still shown as message from Balaji, though that number is not at all saved.
    One more roboustness testing:
    You delete the contact Balaji, still you see in Inbox SMS from Balaji.
    -- Wi-Fi.
    Even with dedicated Wirelss internet connection, E63 just detects the connection but when started browsing, i just get5 this.
    "No Gateway Reply !"
    you give a try for 1000 times you wont get internet brrowsing in E63,
    i get heavy headache if i start thinking why i paid RS12000/- for Junk.
    if i meet any of NOkia people at my office i will kick to them for sure.
    Nokia should be Sued.
    if i keep on digging the non-sense behavior of Nokia E63 i dont know, instead i can write a pretty good software.
    Dear Nokia,
    I need all this and every software problems to be fixed, else i will go to COnsumer COurt,
    this is cheating All indian Customers, Taking RS 12000/- and not even providing a sofwtare which a RS 1000/- gives.
    And if i wont get all this erros fixed by 15days, i will publish all this info at all leading weblinks, and will ask none to go for Nokia,
    because Nokia has forgotten what is SOftware.
    Regards,
    Balaji M
    EVen after Several Mails to [email protected] i got mail as "All the mobile phones do not support all the features. Further, we endeavour to address any concern or suggestions that may be raised by our customers. We thank you for your valuable feedback and have forwarded the same to the relevant department for their due consideration."
    i really dont understand why Nokia Customer Care perdonals are always so dump like Nokia SOftware Engineers, i am asking for existing features not working properly but they comment saying "All the mobile phones do not support all the features"
    Again they say, if any questions ask at Nokia !!
    I am listing out the problems that your very high end Mobile Costing Rs. 12000/- INR which is failing to give even Rs 1000/- worth mobile.
    This is all the questions I have, again why should I have to go and ask the same at Ask Nokia" at  www.nokia.co.in/asknokia ?
    once listed problems are answered again and again just for formalities they are asking ask question.
    I want the Board or Directors and Senior responsible personals to attend to this, and get me bug free mobile for what i have paid RS12000/- else return our money, else i will soon file a Cheating case of not providing a said fetaures working phone by Nokia at COnsumer COurt, India.
    Iam not the one facing this, just visit mouthshut.com, you will see people crying with erros on NOkia even after paying RS 30,000/- who's money is all this ?
    I am awaiting for the response with bug fix by 24 hours.
    and also i need my money back by 1 week.

    Nokia E63 has a name sake encryption and decryption. Once you encrypt and decrypt it is difficult to find any of your old saved files. Paradox is that the memory status will show a huge quantity of used space. But GOD only knows where the files are. Nokia support centres have no answer for this problem. I lost a large chunk of my pics n files. Shame of Nokia.  

  • Pearl 9105 Keyboard Fault or Software Problem?

    Hi,
    I have had my BB Pearl 9105 for about 3 months now, it my first BB and I am overly impressed with it as it does everything I need and more.  However I have noticed over time that when I am writing text (either email, or SMS or anything that uses text input), I find that when I push a key once, the equivalent letter or number will output multiple times.
    For instance if I set numlock on and press the number "2" once, it will write "222".  This sometimes happens on other letters on the keyboard also, but the worst is mainly when using key 2.
    I have done a reset by removing the battery when the device is on, and that temporarily fixes the problem, however after a couple of hours it goes back to outputting multiple letters or numbers.
    Has anybody else seen this?  I would have thought this problem was actually something physically wrong with the keyboard, but it moves around randomly and can happen to any of the keys or multiple keys at once, which suggests a software problem to me?
    Any help would be much appreciate. My details are below.  Thanks and regards,
    Jamie
    BB Pearl 3G 9105
    V5.0.0.689 (Platform 6.2.0.54)

    It sounds like what I have seen multiple times on a device with moisture damage.
    Even sitting on a bathroom counter during a hot steamy shower or bath can cause keyboard and trackball problems UNTIL properly dried out.
    It really is more common than you think.
    1. Remove the battery immediately!! Do not attempt to turn on your BlackBerry.
    2. Let the device dry in a warm, dry place for 3 to 5 days* (see below)
    3. DO NOT "check it each day" by placing the battery in. Leave it be to dry completely. This takes time. Replacing the battery to check it can only damage it more (moisture + electrical current = disaster).
    3. If the device is warm after the drying period, allow it to cool to room temperature before placing the battery back in.
    *Suggestions on drying your BlackBerry in a warm place (open, with the battery out):
    Place the BB in a container of dry UNcooked rice, and then you might also place it in any of the locations mentioned below.
    On top of any dry heat emitting electronic component: TV cabinet or CRT, LCD, cable TV/Satellite converter box or plasma monitor
    On the dashboard of your car on a sunny day

  • Kernel panic but software problem

    Kernel panic (the "You have to restart your computer" message at startup) is said to come from hardware problems but this seems to be a software problem - maybe somebody can help me!
    It started slowly with the fans coming on more often than ususally. Then, I had some kernel panics at startup, usually after two or three false stars, the system would load. Hardware Test said everything was OK, Disc Utility corrected a few permission errors, but the problem persisted. I tried everything: Disconnecting everything, removing PCI card, you name it, nothing helped.
    Only thing that did help was start over. "Archive and install" was not good enough, I had to start from zero. Which means that all my iTunes library and all the rest waas lost. Made a disc image on an external HD and went for it.
    After that, I upgraded to 10.4.11 and tried the migration assistant. Left some of the programs out from the old installation, but took my Documents folder with me. Imported my iTunes library and iPhoto pictures. Until then, everything was perfect. After that point, the fan started its strange behavior again, and today guess what: You have to restart your c.!
    So it must have to do with the programs and data that I imported, and not hardware. Have no idea though - anyone run into similar problems?
    Apart from standard apps, the only thing I use is Cubase but I haven´t touched it for a long time.

    Hi, thanks for your reply! I am now trying to rebuild everything using 10.4.7 ... seems the driver for the audio card (m-audio) was at least causing problems. I´ll see if it was the only one. I did the system updates whenever they popped up in software update but there wasn´t even a driver available for 10.4.11.
    If that´s not it, I´ll try to use your tips! Thank you!
