A few issues with my new BB Bold 9700

Hey, i have a few questions, i thought best to keep it to one thread. FYI i updated my blackberry software today using my computer so it all should be on latest versions
1: GPS never ever works, simple, ive run diagnostics, they time out, and i can never find satelites. My mobile provider does not block it (tmobile uk), is this some sort of joke feature? or is it meant to work.
2: Blackberry Messenger, i deleted it because i dont want to use it, but my update put it back on the phone. and now theres no way to delete it How can i get rid of it, its always running and that means using valuable memory that isnt needed for it
3: Prior to today i would press the lock button on my BB and then you would need to enter the password to unlock the phone, however for some reason the latest update now doesnt use my password when i press the lock button, if i go into the menu and click lock it does. Why.. and how do i make it work like it did
4: When people phone me, it shows me the number calling me and not the name of the contact. This is pathetic, at work i dont want to answer calls from other prospective jobs, but how do i know who they are if it just shows the number. I have to reject call and then go to my call log. which funny enough shows me name of contact and the number. Why does it not show me this when i am being called
Overall this is my first BB, i like it, but theres always something going wrong, and im no technophobe. It seems every few days BB releases new updates which screws up things i had working, and changes the options menu dramatically. its getting impossible to keep up
Any answers to these questions would be greatly appreciated, thanks!

1. GPS works. Refresh it this way:
On all model BlackBerrys, first make certain that you in an area of good signal coverage AND outside with a clear view of the sky in an open area of no tall buildings.
For GSM network devices, do this:
Click Options > Advanced > GPS > Menu > Refresh GPS.
Give it up to 10 minutes to refresh, and try 2-3 times in a row.

Few issues with BI 2004s

Hello there,
I am having few issues with BI 2004s system. Its a new implementation.
-         When you create Data source using DB connect in new system, it creates with old version. I could see the SMALL square box next to the Data source. I would expect the system to generate new 2004s datasource.
-         Obviously the generated D/S wont allow us to create New Transformations. We have to create old transfer rules/update rule. I do see the option to migrate the D/S when I right click on it. But I get short dump when I try that and then you have to discard the D/S and create new one.
-         Also, it wont allow you to delete the DBConnect D/S although you have option to do that?
Anyone has faced these issues?
Performance issue with reporting:
I understand that you have to have portal in order to execute reports which we dont have at this client. They dont have time and money to invest right now. So we have created reports using BW 3.5 BEx Q.designer/WAD to run the reports on web. The report takes long time when you try to drill down on Material/Customer with only 150,000 records in Cube. The cube has just three dimensions (two char each) and 4 key figures. Any suggestion to improve?
Thanks

Yes, I noticed it too and was thinking the same thing, blueaura.
I'm sure they want to ensure the scan is reliable. I keep my screen at a lower brightness to save power, and sometimes Starbucks scanners take a bit longer for it to register.
2) is already fixed.
3) is a feature, not a bug. If you are updating an app you already have installed, it doesn't bother to ask you for the password. Nice!
For Google maps, just use maps.google.com in the browser.

But I am not sure how to delete that operating concern.Even i am not sure if we delete the Operating Concern ..is it going to delete that field in BBESG Structure or not??
Please advise me..

Issues with the New Cloud

Missing options in Media Encoder, Premiere, and After Effects.
Just got done with this chat with Richa.
It appears that there are some issues with your new version of several of your flagship programs. No way to create SMALL size video files for use on slower networks (yes, they still exist out there, I deal with them every day). And the video files have to have alpha channels so they can be overlayed on top of graphics. I am still using flash because it can do things that just cant be done with HTML 5, javascript, css. And it is compatible across almost all browsers. I don't really care what Apple says it is still a very viable program. And if you want to play it on an iOS platform all you need is a browser app to do so. (people have safari, firefox, internet explorer, google etc. so get over the fact that it doesn't work with safari on iOS for iPads and iPhones and download another browser).
But now Adobe has started pulling some real stupid mistakes on purpose or by accident. Not everyone using your production suite is working on the next blockbuster movie for Hollywood. We use these programs for other applications as well. And you have opted to leave some of those tools out of your latest release of flagship programs. What are you thinking!
We in the industry need to make video files that are small in size, that contain alpha channels, and will download over slow networks at a reasonable rate. I don't have any use for a Quicktime mov the size of the Titanic (1.2Gig) when I can compress it to a reasonable size. BUT I NEED THE ABILITY TO INCLUDE THE ALPHA CHANNEL.
And if you read in the chat session below, I would like to be able to do this without having two copies of After Effects loaded on my system. Or any of the other programs as I come across issues.
You have 2.3 million people paying you a monthly subscription. Put down the champagne and start really looking at these new versions of software for your omissions.
I will climb down off my soapbox now and hope, no pray these issues get taken care of very soon. I use your software to make a living. I am not just playing with it as a hobby. Time is money, especially when you can't deliver something to a client after you upgrade your software because you have this wonderful subscription thing that is supposed to make the world better.
You are now chatting with Richa.
Richa: We appreciate your patience and regret the inconvenience due to high wait time.
Richa: Hello. Welcome to Adobe Technical Support.
Richa: Please allow me a moment while I look into your account & verify the details.
Richa: which application are you using?
Richa: We have not heard from you for some time. Do you wish to continue to chat?
david young: After Effects, Premiere, Media Encoder. Any of these. I have downloaded CC 2014 and you have done away with several options when creating video that I use to create interactive pieces for Flash presentations. I can no longer create flvs with alpha. I cannot create H.264 with alpha.
david young: Are you still there?
Richa: yes, please wait a moment
Richa: Open the preferences of After Effects and in the output tab, click on show depriciated formats
david young: Opened prefrences/output but dont see depricated formats.
Richa: I am sorry that option is available in CC as of now, so you need to save this project as AFter effects cc version and open in the previous version and work on it
david young: Well that Sucks. I removed the previous version of the program when I upgraded. How do I get to a previous version from the app manager?
Richa: go to creative cloud app
Richa: and click on the previous version
david young: The only version available is 2014. I don't see a previous version.
Richa: Please allow me to take the remote access of your computer, so that I can troubleshoot further accordingly.
david young: You may not have remote control of my computer. Walk me through the process. And how do I lodge a formal complaint about this issue. Do you not remember why people switched from Final Cut 10 to Premiere?
Richa: We already have posted this issue online on our blogs and forums. Secondly, for the older versions, it is just a simple step in creative cloud app
Richa: All you have to do is in the dropdown menu on uninstalled apps select "Previous version" and click on the version you need to install
david young: There is no drop down menu that says previous version.

Syncing issues with the new iTunes..

Hi,
I just downloaded the new iTunes (11.0.1.12) and am facing some sunc issues.
In my previous itunes, when i would download an app to my iPod over wifi and then connect it to my PC, iTunes would automatically sync and maintain a copy of the app in my PC. My iPod and the PC would be in sync.
But now after I've downloaded this latest iTunes, I downloaded an app to my iPod and when I tried to sync with the PC, the app no longer got copied to my PC. I've tried syncing many times. Its there on my iPod but never gets copied to the PC during sync. Why is is this happening?
Help!

There aren't any issues with the new iTunes. You need the most recent iTunes to sync your iPod

Is anyone having volume issues with the new Iphone 4S?

Is anyone having volume issues with the new Iphone 4S?

Yes, the volume on my iPhone 4s will max out without me touching any button or setting. When opening mail, for instance, the ringer icon will appear and the volume level goes to max volume - and I'm not touching the volume buttons. It seems to happen randomly, at least I can't identify a pattern, but thankfully it doesn't happen all the time, but at least once a day.
Anyone else seen this?

Few issues with N120

I got a few issues with the N120 netbook that I hope you could help me to sort out.
1.
First the brightness up/down keys. First I gave this fix a go.
http://www.sammynetbook.com/plugins/for … .php?29576
It works but its very unstable for me, sometimes it will get stuck and just turn the screen all the way down and then hang for some time before being able to turn the light back on. The icon will hang on the desktop too. Beside that it occasionally makes gnome panel freeze or really most of the time.
Then I gave .xbindkeysrc a try from the NC10 wiki.
#Brightness up/down
"xbacklight +10"
m:0x0 + c:111
"xbacklight -10"
m:0x0 + c:116
That seems to work fine however it is not binded to the Fn (just binded to up/down arrow) key I am sure I am missing something pretty simple here, but....
2.
Wifi Fn key binding is not working. xbindkeys -k gives me -
"(Scheme function)"
m:0x0 + c:75
Here I am simple not sure what "Scheme function" to use.
3.
I would like to blacklist the webcam just not sure what module to blacklist. I did check for a BIOS option but unfortunately there is none.

Other then these few issues all really seems to work really well. I have only had Arch installed for a week or so (not a lot of time on my hands atm though) but sorting these issues would would make it a 100% for me.
I would appreciate if you could help me out.

1. My "gadget" is a basic script:
#!/bin/sh
# display brightness script
# author: lswest
usage="usage: $0 -c {up|down}"
command=
increment=5%
while getopts h o
do case "$o" in
h) echo "$usage"; exit 0;;
?) echo "$usage"; exit 0;;
esac
done
shift $(($OPTIND - 1))
command=$1
if [ "$command" = "" ]; then
echo "usage: $0 {up|down}"
exit 0;
fi
display_brightness=0
if [ "$command" = "up" ]; then
$(xbacklight -inc $increment)
display_brightness=$(xbacklight|cut --delimiter="." -f 1)
fi
if [ "$command" = "down" ]; then
$(xbacklight -dec $increment)
display_brightness=$(xbacklight|cut --delimiter="." -f 1)
fi
icon_name=""
if [ "$icon_name" = "" ]; then
if [ "$display_brightness" = "0" ]; then
icon_name="notification-display-brightness-off"
else
if [ "$display_brightness" -lt "33" ]; then
icon_name="notification-display-brightness-low"
else
if [ "$display_brightness" -lt "67" ]; then
icon_name="notification-display-brightness-medium"
else
if [ "$display_brightness" -lt "100" ]; then
icon_name="notification-display-brightness-high"
else
icon_name="notification-display-brightness-full"
fi
fi
fi
fi
fi
notify-send " " -i $icon_name -h int:value:$display_brightness -h string:synchronous:brightness
It uses notify-osd and displays the bar/icon. If the icon is missing, you will have to copy the notification-* svg files over from the human icon theme. Just in case you'd like it.
Depends what you want to do with the wireless. You can just bring the interface down with
sudo ifconfig wlan0 down
Or else you can remove the module with
sudo modprobe -r <module>

Yes... There are issues with the new iMac, early adopters baby!

Hi, I am a new iMac owner.
Being a network engineer and having worked for the "devil" himself, let me tell you... I would rather be dealing with the tiny glitches with the new iMac than owning a Dell, Toshiba, HP but most importantly running Vista!
This is a new machine with new HW and drivers. I enjoy trying the latest and the greatest. I realize there will be hurdles to overcome with any new product, but come one people! Let's stop whining, and help everyone out here. We are all here to provide constructive feedback to Apple while helping everyone out.
Yes there Display issues.
Yes there are Keyboard issues.
Yes there are WoW issue and UT as well.
Target disk issues.. Yes
Lock ups.. sure!
My suggestion... If you think you are better off with a PC and Vista, well go to it mate!
Sorry for the ramble, but I just got tired of all the whiners thinking that buying an iMac was their solution to never having issues by leaving the PC world, or should I say MSWorld... LOL

I think few, if any people claimed they were going to ditch their new iMac for a PC. I like Macs, but I don't love them like I used to.
Half the reason people buy them, is because they think they can rely on Macs more. They are supposed to be stable, fuss free and easy to use. And they still are for the most part.
But these new iMacs make a complete mockery of that because they don't represent very well what Apple stands for. "If" I bought a PC I would honestly expect some problems here & there. Its just part and parcel of the PC package. And although I don't expect Macs to be 100% perfect 100% of the time, I certainly expect better than this diabolical shambles that is the new iMac.
Just as an example.. My 4 year old G4 powerbook.. Not 100% problem free, granted. But mighty close. However, it has not crashed once the entire time I have had it. My new iMac however, crashed 4 times yesterday alone, and it didn't even get used as much as my old powerbook.
Maybe now you get the picture a little better?
Just my 2 kernel panics worth...

Is there an issue with the new(2012-2013) 27" iMac using all bandwidth?

Hi, I just started up the new comp and my roommate began to complain about having no to little bandwidth.
I am using the Mac Airport Extreme with a strong internet connection. My Macbook Pro (2009 model) has no issues at all and we can have a wii system, as well as my roomie's desktop and my laptop streaming all at the same time with no lag in the connection. As soon as I went to download a file from the web with the new iMac all connections dropped.
I'm curious if anyone else is having these issues and what/if anything is being done to resolve it?
Thanks,
Ryn

Few issues with my MBP screen (warranty related?)

Hi all,
I have been putting this problem off for the past year now, but it's getting to me more and more. My MacBook Pro is still under warranty (MBP is a 2007 model just before the newer ones came out), and I have a few niggles with the display.
First off I have a dead pixel near the top, where the address bar usually is for Safari/Chrome. This one is shown in the tab to make it apparent. (http://img294.imageshack.us/img294/4168/img0278q.jpg)
Next is a dash of light to the far right of the screen about just under a quarter of the way up from the screen. (http://img17.imageshack.us/img17/6196/img0279d.jpg)
And finally I have something that looks like a hair has embedded under the screen and this is the most distracting part. I have included links to pictures of what I am referring to. (http://img17.imageshack.us/img17/2763/img0277ix.jpg) (http://img297.imageshack.us/img297/2985/img0276m.jpg)
My question is will any of these be enough to warrant use of my warranty (AppleCare)? I do graphic design and the hair like thing is the worst because it's consistently viewable. Thanks for any help.
Message was edited by: Shady Pioneer

You definitely need to ask about this before your warranty is up. The hair seems to be the worst thing. I believe that displays are supposed to be manufactured in clean room conditions and sealed. There should not be a hair under the display. The light dash could represent a break in the seal but I don't know if it does or not.
The only way to find out is to ask, and emphasize that you do graphic design. I have heard of people getting replacement displays for similar issues.
Good luck!

Anybody else having issues with the new 1.1??

For some reason, I have encountered two issues already.. Whenever I'm exporting my galleries as web pages, nothing happens! It creates a null folder that I specify but then doesn't export any photos or html pages.. If I delete the folder and do it again, the exact same way, for some miracle it then begins to export.. There is no logical explanation and its clear that its a bug..
Also, when exporting multiple images into CS2, that also fails for me.. It only opens up one picture and even though the others are selected, it doesn't seem to do the trick.. Its not my computer because i have a brand new quad w/ 4 gigs of memory.. I didn't encounter either of these issues with the older version..
Anybody else??

I tried both, and was successfull both times.
External Edit:
1. I selected 2 images (D200 RAW images).
2. Right clicked to get the contextual menu and selected Open with External Editor (I have my prefs set up for Photoshop).
3. Both images opened in Photoshop.
I can't image it being system specific. What camera and file type are you using?

My iPad 4 says not charging but it does slowly charge . I got it replaced on sat but the new one is the same . I have tried using a different power outlet and it is the same so it appears to be an issue with the new iPad

Can anyone help .my new iPad notes not charging when it is in fact slowly charging. I had it replaced 2 days ago but the new one has the same issue.it would appear this is a common issue with ipad4.can anyone advise on how to get over this problem. .thanks

Found this thread by searching the forum. I hope it helps.
