HT1689 What is the meaning of the small arrow icon top right corner, please.

I am puzzled by the arrow icon at the top right corner of my iPad. Bluetooth, capacity used and battery condition are self-explanatory, but the arrow icon?

It's there to let you know the application you are in is using your location data.
Like if you use the Target App, it will tell you what stores are close to you.

My computer now has the 'new scan' and 'accept' buttons on top right corner & does not scan

my computer crashed. I re-installed my PSC 1510 drivers( updated from the HP web site) and when I hit the scan button, the 'new scan' and 'accept' icon appear in the top right corner of my monitor(they use to be on the bottom right corner) and the scanner does not respond. Even if I hit the new scan button, nothing happens. Any ideas what to try next? Thanks

hi kreeze,
Thanks for the Video that really helped a lot,
That small black circle there is a Windows 8 / 8.1 touch input indicator,
Everytime you touch the screen is shows where you touch by showing that black circle right there.
See this video as it shows on 00:29 the black circle you are seeing on your screen, only that in this video this is what should happened normally.
If you are not touching the screen in that posistion and the computer is detecting a continous touch in that position then I believe that there is an issue with the touch screen.
Can you try Removing the AC adapter and hold down the power button, eventually the computer will turn off and still hold down the power button for atleast 10 sec after the computer turned off.
This will clear the hardware of static
also try resetting the touch calibration and re calibrate it
http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-8/touch-pen-settings-faq
and hopefully will fix the touch issue.
If not I suggest you call technical support right away and report the touch screen.
Regards
Solid Cruver

Images have ? symbol on the top right corner of the thumbnail what does this mean and how do I remove it?

Q - My images have a
? symbol on the top right corner of the thumbnail what does this mean and how do I remove it?
A - The
? symbol is used to identify a file that Lightroom can no longer access; probably because it has been moved using OS drag/drop or Move command rather than Lightroom.
Click the
? symbol will cause a small dialog will appear. This dialog will provide information as to where the file was originally located along with an option to find (Locate) it again.
As you'll quickly realise, clicking the
? symbol is fine for finding individual files that may have been relocated, but not for large numbers. There must be a better way
Look at the Folder panel (left side of Library module) and you should find that the folder/subfolder containing the files that Lightroom can no longer find are shown in Red text. It is the red text that Lightroom uses to help you identify a folder/subfolder that contains files that it has lost track off.
On the Mac you should
Ctrl-click (right-click when using two button mouse) the folder/subfolder, a pop-up menu will appear. From the pop-up menu choose the command
Locate Missing Folder, a dialog should appear. The dialog gives you access to every hard disk connected to your computer or CD/DVDs if they're in the tray. Use this dialog to navigate to the location where the folder is now located, then select this folder (not the files). Finally, press the
Choose button and allow Lightroom to do its stuff.
The method described above also applies to the PC version although the dialog is called
Browse for Folder and the
Choose button is replaced by
OK.
You can avoid getting into a situation were Lightroom looses track of your folders/subfolders by using a variation of above.
A tutorial demonstrating above can be found

In the top right corner of my i phone screen there is a small padlock with a circle around it, what is this for and how do i get rid of it,, it has only just popped up

in the top right corner of my iphone screen there is a small padlock with a circle around it, what is this for and how do i get rid of it, it has just popped up...

That is the orientation lock indicator. It means that you phone will not go into landscape mode when tilted on it's side.
To turn orientation lock off double tap the home button, to access the multitasking menu, then swipe your finger to the right over the multitasking bar at the bottom and touch the big button on the left with the padlock.

What does "other" mean at the bottom of the sync page? It is taking up a large amount of space on my phone.

What does "other" mean at the bottom of the sync page? It is taking up a large amount of space on my phone.

The other section contains temporary files, such as text messages, iMessages, voicemail, and other storage that is meant for small short term use. If the other section of your phone has grown quite large and you can't account for what it could be then you may have experienced a syncing error to iTunes.
I have experienced this problem frequently during my years with the iPhone. The other portion of my phone grows with every sync of my phone to iTunes. There comes a point where it takes up the majority of the space on my iPhone, making the device near unusable.
When it grows to this extent is usually cased by an error during the syncing process. Any information iTunes can't reconcile during the syncing process is saved out of sight, out of mind, in the 'other' section.
You will never be able to see or recover this section unless you are very savvy and know how to poke around the archived iPhone back-up on your computer. (if you are thinking of trying, stop. It will not be worth your time and effort, or if using third party software, the money or spyware associated with it *cough* iTools *cough*).
The only fix I have found that works is to back up your phone to iTunes, and preform a 'restore'. This erases the content of your phone, and restores it to factory settings.
That is you phone will be as if you took it fresh out of the box. You can preform a restore from back-up through iTune, or iCloud to get your content back.
Lo and behold your have trimmed the mystery meat.

What's the meaning of the various .bin files used by SAM?

hey everyone,
I'm trying to understand why exactly there are so many .bin files used by the SAM, and how to compile each one of them.
My .rc file for the simulation contains:
load bin reset.bin 0xfff0000000
load bin q.bin 0xfff0010000
load bin openboot.bin 0xfff0080000
load bin nvram1 0x1f11000000
load bin 1c1t-md.bin 0x100000
load bin 1c1t-hv.bin 0x180000
load bin disk1.img 0x1f40000000
I don't understand why I have 3 different files - reset.bin, q.bin and openboot.bin when I would have expected only one bootfile.
I also don't know what's the meaning of the 1c1t-md.bin file (what md stands for).
If anyone could clear this subject for me, and also point me to the sources of each such file (if they exist in the project, and assume they do, at least for most of them), I'd be grateful.
Thanks,
Mintz Yuval

Hi,
Sorry I haven't replied sooner.
I get your project now and it sounds pretty cool.
Let me answer your last question first. The service processor resides a separate motherboard running independently of the N2 processor. The SP and N2 processor communicate via a I2C link which allows the SP to read and alter the state of the N2. The cpu, caches, NIU, memory, etc. are all connected by this link. Once the N2 is running, the SP and the N2 firmware may exchange messages via a mailbox protocol over the I2C.
nvram1.bin is a configuration file that is OBP specific. On HW, it would be a little ROM that obp reads during the boot. Since it's in memory, SAM doesn't make any assumptions about it. You can remove it or rework it to suit u-boot.
disk.img is the contents of a virtual disk which contains the root filesystem. This is essentially a ram disk which has been added to SAM's version of the hypervisor and/or obp. On HW, the firmware does not support this kind of virtual ram disk. For SAM, I'm pretty sure that obp is extended to create a device tree node for the virtual disk. Hypervisor may not know about the virtual disk.
Since disk.img is a UFS (or other Solaris-oriented) filesystem, you will probably want to replace it with a ext3 or Linux-oriented filesystem. Since Linux has direct kernel support for ramdisk, you might be able to build/configure the kernel with the location of the root filesystem image in memory. Or this might be a u-boot option.
As to 1c1t*.bin and reset.bin. On HW, the service processor is responsible for discovering all the devices and cpus on a system and writing the machine description file (e.g. 1c1t*.bin) and the reset firmware (e.g. reset.bin). These files are used during boot and various resets to initialize or reinitialize machines state for the cpus and all the i/o devices. Since SAM doesn't include a service processor, these files are static and created completely outside of SAM. The md*.bin files contents must match the configuration of cpu's in the sam.rc file -- firmware will fail if it tries to run code on a strand that is missing.
The md and reset.bin files are used during the boot process to set-up CMT registers and do a little bit of i/o device initialization. SAM doesn't support reset modes such as warm reset.
I hope this helps. Let me know if you need me to track down more details.
Cheers,
Stephen

Hi Siva,
don't you remember Re: Net service name and service ? :-)

What is the meanning of the following ?

hi , db 10g ,
What is the meanning of the following :-
1- Literals .
2- Expressions in Sql .
3- PL/SQL Expressions .
4- Padded blanks .

It is all documented.
1 - Literal: https://web.stanford.edu/dept/itss/docs/oracle/10g/server.101/b10759/sql_elements003.htm#sthref377
The terms literal and constant value are synonymous and refer to a fixed data value. For example, 'JACK', 'BLUE ISLAND', and '101' are all character literals; 5001 is a numeric literal. Character literals are enclosed in single quotation marks so that Oracle can distinguish them from schema object names.
2 -SQL Expressions: https://web.stanford.edu/dept/itss/docs/oracle/10g/server.101/b10759/expressions001.htm
About SQL Expressions
An expression is a combination of one or more values, operators, and SQL functions that evaluates to a value. An expression generally assumes the datatype of its components.
This simple expression evaluates to 4 and has datatype NUMBER (the same datatype as its components):
2*2
SQL (simple) expression: https://web.stanford.edu/dept/itss/docs/oracle/10g/server.101/b10759/expressions002.htm#sthref802
simple_expression::=
3 - PL/SQL expressions: https://web.stanford.edu/dept/itss/docs/oracle/10g/appdev.101/b10807/02_funds.htm#sthref211
Expressions are constructed using operands and operators. An operand is a variable, constant, literal, or function call that contributes a value to an expression. An example of a simple arithmetic expression follows:
-X / 2 + 3
Unary operators such as the negation operator (-) operate on one operand; binary operators such as the division operator (/) operate on two operands. PL/SQL has no ternary operators.
The simplest expressions consist of a single variable, which yields a value directly. PL/SQL evaluates an expression by combining the values of the operands in ways specified by the operators. An expression always returns a single value. PL/SQL determines the datatype of this value by examining the expression and the context in which it appears.

What does radio mean in the contact selection instead of mobile or home, and why is it the default?

What does radio mean in the contact selection instead of mobile or home, and why is it the default?
When adding a new contact, the number shows up as "radio" instead of "mobile" or "home" and I have to change it every time. What does "radio" mean and why is it the default? can that be changed?

Radio is a type of phone service offered by certain carriers. Sprint for instance offers their Sprint Direct Connect Phones (a.k.a Nextel) which have built in Radios. Short Wave or CB radio type features. Also referred to as Push to Talk services.
http://shop.sprint.com/mysprint/services_solutions/category.jsp?catId=solution_s dc&catName=Sprint%20Direct%20Connect
Think a walkie talkie in your Phone.
I get the Radio option when using Hotmail contacts as the default Contact creator. If I change it to iCloud or Gmail I no longer get the Radio option in the labels.
If you are using a service such as Hotmail/Outlook.com for your contacts the radio option may be present.
You can change which service is the default service to create new contacts with by going to Settings->Mail Contacts & Calendars->Contacts->Default Account
The Radio label is just an identifier for those types of Phones so you know its a number for a radio phone.

In Numbers, I can see my documents but they have the top right corner turned over with a down arrow, what does that mean?

In Numbers, I can see my documents but they have the top right corner turned over with a down arrow, what does that mean? I touch it and nothing happens.
I have recently done a full restore because my iPad and iPhone were mis-behaving and wouldn't work they way I expected with Windows XP and Outlook 2003 and now when I check iCloud.com, all my documents are gone, yet my iPad hints that they may still be somewhere but where are they?

That is the orientation lock symbol, you can not go to landscape orientation. Tap the home button twice, swipe the task bar to the right, tap on the 'circle' icon at the left to unlock the orientation. You will then be able to view items in portrait and landscape mode.
