Whose lines are "crossed", mine or theirs?

I have a Verizon land line and use a cordless phone.  Today, I had a conversation with someone (insurance agent), and shortly after the conversation ended, my phone rang again.  The caller ID showed, "Unknown caller," which I usually ignore.  Sometimes, I'll pick it up and wait to see if someone will speak, so I know that it's not an autodialer -- then I give them hell because I'm on the DNC list  .
This time, I did pick up.  To my surprise, I heard two people having a conversation (nothing confidential, nothing completely identifying anyone, but coincidentally, the man's name was the same as my agent).  I pressed a button or two, then spoke, to see if they could hear me.  Nope.  I hung up. 
The phone rang again, also "Unknown caller,"  but I picked up anyway.  It was the same woman whom I had just heard!  I told her that I had heard part of her conversation with, as it turns out, my insurance agent
So, what are the odds that *their* lines are the troubled ones; or could it be mine?  I believe it's their lines, since he initiated the call to me, and then he called her.  We did complete our call (both of us hung up), so it's not as if he put me on Hold.
I don't know who their carrier is, but you can bet that I'll tell him about this!

Although I'm embarrassed to do so, I have to answer my own post.  However, it may help someone else in the same situation.
I just spoke with my agent (and they also use Verizon).  They were trying to add me to a conference call, although no mention of this was made in their conversation.
So, no crossed lines.  I was beginning to think that I was in the Twilight Zone!

  • Schedule line getting created for material whose stocks are maintained

    Hi Friends,
    I am having an unusual problem of schedule line getting created for material whose stocks are there in the system. I have created an SO for some material, and all the material is having sufficient qty in the system but still the system is generating schedule line.
    Can someone please advice what could be the problem and the solution to it.
    Regards,
    Wasim.

    Hello Wasim,
    - In TCode MM02, Check Scheduling in MRP2 Tab of Material master (if MRP is active.)
    - In Tcode OVZ9 - AvC control, for your Availability check maintain (eg. 02) in material & Checking Rule:A-SD order.
    Whether Check availability without replenishment lead time is unchecked, as this Indicates whether, during the availability check, the system checks the replenishment lead time. So, Items for which the delivery date falls within the replenishment lead time, but for which there is no inventory, are confirmed for delivery after the replenishment lead time. In the case of items for which the delivery date falls after the end of the replenishment lead time, the system assumes that everything can be confirmed.
    Thanks & Regards

    Here are a few things that you check and can try.
    Make sure that you do not have a stalled download in iTunes - a song or podcast .... if you have a download in there that did not finish, complete that one first. Only one thing can download at a time on the iPad so that could be what is causing the problem.
    If that doesn't work - sign out of your account, restart the iPad and then sign in again.
    Settings>Store>Apple ID. Tap your ID and sign out. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Go back to Settings>Store>Sign in and then try to update again. Tap one waiting icon only if necessary to start the download stream.
    You can also try deleting the waiting icons - tap and hold down on an icon until it wiggles - the tap the X on the icon to delete it. Then try to download again.
    You can try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your app preferences and device settings again.

  • OM: Sales order lines are cancelled automatically without backordering.

    Intercompany sales orders lines are being cancelled automatically on the delivery when a split line is shipped with a quantity of one remaining. This line should remain backordered. A quantity of 61 was entered and 60 was shipped and 1 remaining. This 1 should have been backordered but no new line was automatically generated and infact when I view the Additional information I can see that the quantity 1 is cancelled. The profile option OM: Under Shipment Tolerance is set to .5

    HI,
    You can cross check by running the AUDIT HISTORY REPORT in Order Management, which gives the in depth details of the sales order amendments.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    You could simply set each device to only use a single telephone number (settings > messages > send & receive, but this isn't really an ideal solution since the other person can always change their settings and see your messages and send messages that appear as if they are from you. There is only one real solution and that's to have your own accounts.

  • Unable to bold a cell verticle line in Cross-tab Format Grid Lines

    Hi
    I am unable to bold a random Cell vertical line inside the cross-tab. My cross-tab is having access database which pulls every data correctly,
    To elaborate , here is the images to make it clear.
    First one is the current output of cross-tab & 2nd one is the desired output :
    To make it more clear ,
    I am giving the screenshot of Format grid lines option,  when I have selected Cell vertical lines , I can change Line options (Like style,width,color) from it. When I change it, it changes all three lines simultaneously. But, in that, I just want to bold only the last line of this grid.
    The screenshot as follows (To denote the lines, I have put numbering under the vertical lines, where I want to bold only the third one) :
    Please let me know, if  any solution to this. I m using CRVS_13.
    Thanks in Advance.

    Hi,
    try to do this way..
    Right click on crosstab - > crosstab expert -> customize style -> select your particular column then goto Format Grid Lines -> select your particular one based view -> ok..
    I hope this not yet possible because select 1 automatically 2,3 vertical lines are selected..
    See how it works......Please update ASAP

  • I just upgraded to mountain lion osx and now my applications are crossed out and out of date. they will not run. how do i fix this?

    I just upgraded to mountain lion osx and now my applications are crossed out and out of date. they will not run. how do i fix this?

    Here is a recent post I assembled for a similar question:
    Unfortunately you got caught up in the minor miracle of Rosetta.  Originally licensed by Apple when it migrated from the PowerPC CPU platform that it had used from the mid-1990's until the Intel CPU platform in 2006, Rosetta allowed Mac users to continue to use their library of PPC software transparently in emulation.
    However, Apple's license to continue to use this technology expired with new releases of OS X commencing with Lion (and now Mountain Lion).  While educational efforts have been made over the last 6 years, the fact is that Rosetta was SO successful that many users were caught unaware UNTIL they upgraded to Lion or Mountain Lion.
    Workarounds:
    1. If your Mac will support it, restore OS X Snow Leopard;
    2.  If your Mac will support it, partition your hard drive or add an external hard drive and install Snow Leopard into it and use the "dual-boot" method to choose between your PowerPC software or Lion/Mt. Lion;
    3.  Upgrade your software to Intel compatible versions if they are available, or find alternative software that will open, modify and save your data files;
    3.  Install Snow Leopard (with Rosetta) into Parallels:

    As an overworked professional, I simply have to consider the very viable options out there. Never thought I'd be seriously considering a Cubase product.
    It's a Steinberg product, not a Cubase product.. in case you haven't been paying attention Steinberg developed the virtual instrument for use in it's programs way back in Cubase 3.55.. the plethora of virtual instruments and the advent of low-latency drivers can be directly traced to Steinberg/Cubase development.. Logic also borrowed Cubase's arrange page format back in the 1980's. Cubase has borrowed from Logic to be sure but Steinberg has long been an innovator for many of the things we take for granted today. It was Logic/Emagic who licensed the VST technology and ASIO low latency format to use in Logic 4.xx. It was Apple who adapted VST to it's own AU format. Also, Cubase and Nuendo have undergone a lot more innovation over the past three years, Yamaha has been good as a parent company. Cubase is not Nuendo's little brother by the way, they are very close, same exact audio engine, same robustness, they can exchange files, the only difference being Cubase doesn't have some of the high end post features that Nuendo has. I use both Cubase and Logic and occasionally Nuendo at the University here.. I know both programs fairly well, believe me, both Cubase 6 and 7 can hold their own with any DAW out there, they just don't come with a bunch of ready made loops and preset instruments.
    LogicX will never be able to use 32-bit instruments without a third party solution, nor will it ever include the Bridge. At least according to the people I know.

  • Libraries showing up on home share that ARE NOT mine

    I'm just starting college in another state so I enabled home sharing on my laptop so I could look at my content from back home on my laptop. At first the "Shared" tab on the left never showed up when I enabled it, but after a day, three different libraries appeared--and NONE of them are mine.
    How is it possible that different libraries are showing up? Aren't music libraries tied to our Apple account? I've never enabled home sharing on another computer, so I don't know how this is possible. Even more confusing, I have no idea who these people are. How did their music libraries appear on MY iTunes??

    sarahlove wrote:

    iTunes can see shared libraries on the same local network. In a dorm, that could be a lot of people. If you don't want to share, go into preferences and disable it.

    Absolutely not. You can buy or rip songs from various sources, and add them to your iTunes library.
    Even more confusing, I have no idea who these people are.
    Walk down the hall and meet them. Welcome to college!

  • Permanent lines on ipad mini screen

    I have had my ipad mini for 2 days. I have noticed that there are permanent lines "burnt" into the screen. In landscape mode the lines are vertical; in portrait, the lines are horizontal. It is really noticeable when viewing dark images or films. It also shows up when viewing web sites on safari.
    I don't remember seeing this at first but I've only just got around to putting any pics or films onto the mini. I would post an image but if I do a screen grab, the lines aren't there.

    Mine too. Ordered off Apple Online Store, opened box on 25 December, called Apple on 28 December, swapped out for new one at local Apple Store on 29 December. New one is fine. Guys at Apple store didn't argue and confirmed definatley a duff screen. I suspect you might be sorted now given the date of your last post...if not I'd get it returned.
    Eh Dash...how long have u had it?..have u asked for a new one...sounds like you're waiting for a repair?

  • How to find out the list of all user's whose passwords are expired

    Hi
    i had tried to find out the list of all user's whose passwords are expired.
    i had written some jndi code by finding the max age and then find out the current time and subtracted this current time from max age using the following code
    "Attributes attbts=ctx.getAttributes("cn=pwdpolicy");
    String maxAge=(String)attbts.get("pwdMaxAge").get();
    Date Today = new Date();
    System.out.println("maxAge"+maxAge);
    long curTime=(Today.getTime())-Long.parseLong(maxAge)*1000;"
    and then parse it and create a string time as follows
    String time=year+month+day+hour+minute+second+"Z";
    where "year" "month" etc were parsed from curTime
    now i can get the list by using following code
    "String filterCriteria="(&(objectclass=person)(pwdChangedTime>="+time+")";
    NamingEnumeration results = ctx.search(baseDN,filterCriteria, sc); "
    but the current time which i am getting is the time of my system not the time of ldap server
    so my questions are following;
    1.Can there is any way by which i can get the tivole sever's system time.
    2.If there is no way then can you suggest any other way to find out the list of user's whose passwords are expired.
    please help me.
    Thanks.

  • Hi. Downloaded iphone 6.0 and my video playlists in "Music" are now gone, but their names are still there. The videos are still in "Videos" and play from there 1 at a time manually.

    Hi. Downloaded iphone 6.0 and my video playlists in "Music" are now gone, but their names are still there. The videos are still in "Videos" and play from there 1 at a time manually.  It gets weirder:
    When looking at the empty screen with the name of my former playlist on top,  if I tap the edit button on the phone, tap the + button to add a 'song' to the playlist, and then tap 'Done' without adding anything, I can see all my videos in the playlist with the red minus symbol next to each of them. But as soon as I tap 'Done' again they all disappear!
    I saw on another forum that someone has had the same problem but fixed it by, and I quote
    "If you go to Get Info and change the Media Kind from Movie to Music Video under the Options tab, they all now appear in the playlists!"
    I'm happy this worked for him, but when I tap "File" in itunes, the "Get info" field is greyed out, so I can't test the solution proposed.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks
