Accessing CMOS memory via UEFI

Hi,
I want to read the CMOS (128 bytes NVRAM that the PC uses to store RTC and other system related data)
http://www.bioscentral.com/misc/cmosmap memory map via UEFI. Is this possible? If so can you please let me know the functions?

Which models provide access to handset memory via ...

Hi
Many Nokia models with a memory card inserted will allow the user to browse the contents of that memory card by connecting via cable and then selecting "Mass Storage" on the phone.
*Some* Nokia models allow the user to access the internal handset memory in a similar way - e.g. N95 8GB, 6500 Classic, N96 etc. Other models don't allow this (e.g. N95 will say that mass storage mode is not accessible without a memory card inserted).
My question is, which specific models allow this ability to access the internal handset memory via mass storage? Is there any kind of list somewhere?
Thanks
Kevin

"User data area" is too vague.
If there is no memory card inserted in the phone and if there is no built-in mass storage then the user data will be stored in the phone's internal memory (C: drive). Even in this configuration, the data is not accessible via mass storage mode.
Take the case of the N95-1. It has a 160MB C: drive and a slot for a memory card (E: drive). If there is no card in the slot then you won't be able to connect the phone in mass storage mode in the first place. If you do stick a card in the slot then that card is what you'll have access to in mass storage mode.
Now take the case of the N95-2. It has the same 160MB C: drive but also 8GB of on-board memory (E: drive), which behaves exactly like an 8GB memory card in the N95-1. It's this E: drive that's visible in mass storage mode.
Finally, take the example of the N96, which has both 16GB of on-board memory and a slot for a memory card. In mass storage mode it's the 16GB of mass memory (E: drive) that's visible. Whether there's a memory card in the microSD slot (F: drive) or not, it's the E: drive, and only the E: drive, that's visible in mass storage mode.

Can we conform in memory via in memory only query?

Can we conform in memory via in memory only query?
In other words, if I do in memory query only, does the query result will represent changes done in the UOW so far?
I thought that was the case, but then I saw this comment in EclipseLink 1.1.3, class ReadAllQuery:
// PERF: Fixed to not query each unit of work cache (is not conforming),
// avoid hashtable and primary key indexing.
// At some point we may need to support some kind of in-memory with conforming option,
// but we do not currently allow this.

We want to be able to do conforming against session via uow so include state in uow, and also only against uow.
Please show us how it can be done using existing API.
Scenario 1:
We have 1000 organizations loaded in the session cache, we always cache all of them, so we know we don't need to hit the db. So we would like to do query in memory via UOW to pick-up the cases we are in the middle of a transaction modifing/creating/deleting an organization and also get the session object not yet transfered to the UOW.
Scenario 2:
I do not want to flush before each query, it is a popular query. The class queried against have many thousands objects in the session cache, also there is no garanty the objects are already loaded. I send to the db the query truncating all the columns of the select except for the primary keys columns, so using report query asking for primary key only. I then verify if the objects are present in the cache, if some are not present, I retrieve the missing objects in batch from DB using the ids. Most of the time we have 100% cache hit. Then I transfer all the objects to the UOW. Then to get modification done so far in the transaction, I query in memory only in the UOW not accessing session cache because would have to iterate thousands of objects. That sound convoluted scenario but it's actually very useful in our application to get better performance without introducing stale issue. Similar scenario is that we have some query that are repeted many times during the same UOW. We can keep trace that the query have been executed one time against the DB, so that the result is loaded in memory. But then, we still need to execute again to pick-up the change in the transaction but we don't want to pay the price of iterating the many thousands instances in the session cache, when we already know UOW has all the objects that the query needs.
Thanks for helping us to leverage query in memory, an exclusive feature of TopLink/EclipseLink.

Can't access CMOS/BIOS - BLACK

I can see the very first part of POST. If I press pause/break, it tells me that DEL will take me to CMOS. If it does, it is not displaying and I can't see it.
I thought perhaps it was my USB keyboard, but I've changed that out to a regular keyboard. Then, I thought maybe it was my AGP graphics card, so I changed that out to an old Diamond S3.
I know it's not my monitor backlight, since I can see the first part of POST. I can also display fine from within Windows98 from a DOS prompt.
What I CAN'T do is:
Restart to DOS (screen is black)
Access CMOS information (screen is black)
Any other suggestions? I need to be able to SEE my CMOS information and change something.
Everything works just fine in Windows.

Hjongste,
Thanks for the reply.
In addition to the above-mentioned change-outs, the LED on the monitor stays green, just as it does when displaying the first part of POST, when I press DEL to access CMOS. I believe it is probably GOING INTO cmos, I just can't see it.
Today I tried another monitor and still no go.
I also changed the resolution. No go.
I at first thought it was the USB keyboard, or that the graphics card was windows only, but changing all these things out has proved that wrong.
The builder is a 5-hour trip by car for me, so I was trying to solve this myself. I suspect either there is some weird setting in CMOS which I can't change since I can't see it, OR, that there is a chip on the motherboard that is bad.
I'll check back in on Monday night after my long drive and tell you what happened. I've stumped people in 2 other tech forums, so we are all waiting with baited breath on this one!

"Unable to access selected memory. Messages will b...

I have noticed that sometimes my Nokia 5530 gives me this message, usually after I download pics to my computer, but not always. Sometimes, it just happens randomly.
"Unable to access selected memory. Messages will be stored to phone memory."
Is there any way to prevent this?
I have to switch the default location back to E memory, and then everything works again. It's just annoying.

Hi, unfortunately, this is a 'trait' of many Nokia phones after being connected via usb, admittedly it is a little irritating, but it doesn't happen every time, and to be honest I've just got into the habit of quickley checking messages on my phone whenever I disconnect it. I have a shortcut on my homescreen , so it only takes a couple of seconds, and I don;t really consider it a problem, and for the sake of a couple of seconds I'd rather keep my phone memory as clean as possible. Good Luck PS the search section at the top of the page may solve many of your problems without posting a thread, as most things, however 'silly' you may think they are will have been asked and answered before. I'd been using this forum for acouple of months before I actually posted a question or response, and the more threads posted the harder it is for people with much more knowledge than me to fond them and help;

790FX-GD70 - have to boot several times - CMOS Memory Wrong - 2E?

Well I just recently bought this mobo and have some problems already.
My config ============
- Phenom X4 955
- 4GB GoodRam 1333MHz
- Sapphire Radeon HD4890 Vapor-X
- Intel SSD 80GB Gen2
- Samsung H3EG 500GB
- PSU BeQuiet! PurePower L7 530W
All power cables are connected to motherboard and the GPU (even both extra 12V).
========================
At first it worked fine, I installed Windows 7 without any problems, all of the programs etc.
The only thing I changed in BIOS is the CPU Fan speed - because I have a very loud AMD box fan I just set the desired temp. (60C) and set the lowest fan speed for 25% - that's all.
Then, on the next day I started the PC up and all I saw was a black screen - no graphic info on the monitor, all fans running and POST led showing 2E.
I turned it off and the next boot went fine. The PC was running fine and stable the wholeeee day, no problems whatsoever.
After two or three days the problem worsened - it now takes not one but several (probably around 10) reboots to make the PC running. At all times the POST-LED shows "2E". After it finally starts then I see the message CMOS Memory Wrong Hour and Date not set etc. After I set it up all works fine further on (I usually keep my PC running for 10 to 16 hours).
However, there's one other thing - AFTER I turn the PC off it starts again by itself! And it's again with an error! Now, that's sick...
My guess is that something is interfering with the CMOS mem or the chipset. A good indicator of that is the CPU fan - at normal boots I can hear its RPM going down just after the PC starts, way before it gets to initializing memory. With an error-start the fan works at full speed all the time.
So, in short:
1. I have to boot my PC several times before it starts correctly.
2. I get the CMOS Memory Wrong message after a successful boot.
3. When running the PC is stable, has no problems, shows no errors or signs of instability.
4. When I turn it off (Windows -> Shut down) the computer starts again by itself - and with an error again (CPU fan is working on high RPM, screen is black etc.).
Any idea? I unplugged all small cords (Power LED, Power Switch, HDD etc.) and start the PC with a button on mobo - but it made no difference.

OK, it's not the PSU - I have just found what causes the problem.
I followed the trace left by my monitor and apparently my computer will not boot without the monitor turned on before.
I tried several times - every time my screen is off, the PC won't start. When it's on (before the PC itself) everything works fine.
I guess I have to wait for my new screen and check it out again. As I said - I use an old CRT Dell with VGA -> DVI adapter - and I believe it is the cause.
I noticed that even putting the adapter itself on the cable when the monitor is on, makes it react to it. Maybe there's some electric charge that goes through the card to the mobo? I don't know. Odd enough - this is the source of the problem - 95% sure
Anybody has any idea why it happens?

I bought iCloud memory via that same account no problem.
When setting up iCloud on iPad you cannot have a primary iCloud account unless it has an email address .
Made new account as per instruction ie [email protected] works fine
BUT as I want to utilise the money spent on the additional memory it would be great to use the initial account set up as my primary HOWEVER as far as I have tried the initial apple ID CANNOT be changed. Bit confused actually any usefull guidance will be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Can access Apple TV via airplay, but can't get to internet or iMac from Apple TV

Can access Apple TV via airplay, but can't get to internet or iMac from Apple TV. Whenever I try to put my info in it says to try later. When I test network it says network time has not been set. It has worked previously.

Try the following steps, check whether things are working after each step where appropriate, before trying the next.
Check AirPlay is turned on on the Apple TV (turn it off and on if it already is)
Check that both devices are on the same network (Settings > Wifi, on the mobile device and Settings > General > Network, on the Apple TV).
Restart the Apple TV (Settings > General > Restart).
Restart the Apple TV by removing ALL the cables for 30 seconds.
Restart your router. (Also try removing it’s power cord for at least 30 seconds)
Restart your mobile device.
If you are still having problems, the following article(s) may help you.

There is no such account. The iPod is really a one-user device
Create a NEW account/ID for her using these instructions. Make sure you follow the instructions. Many do not and if you do not you will not get the None option. You must use an email address that you have not used with Apple before.

I had a problem with a 5.0.3 project that would cause 5.0.4 to crash. Apple asked for a copy of the project and later told me it was because there were some empty text layers. Apple is aware of the issue and is working on a fix.
In my case I still had 5.0.3 on another Mac and could clean up the project. If empty text layers might be the problem, do you know someone with an earlier version who could open it and remove the empty layers? I'd be willing to give it a try if you'd want to send me the project.

I receive a not connected to the internet message several times daily on my iMac connected via airport to a time capsule which accesses the internet via cable modem.. When I input my password to enter network preferences, the connection re-establishes.

I receive a "not connected to the internet message" several times daily on my iMac connected via airport to a time capsule which accesses the internet via a cable modem. Software/firmware is up to date on the iMac (OSX 10.6.8) and Tme Capsule(7.5.2). Browser is Safari 5.1.
When I input my password at the prompt to enter network preferences, all the lights go green (ie... ethernet, ISP etc.) and the connection re-establishes immediately and states "the connection appears to be working normally".
It more of a nuisance than anything and seems to have started ocurring over the past couple of months. I also have a windows XP box also connected to the same cable modem that I never have internet connectivity issues with. I've verified all the physical aspects of the connections and can't see any evidence of any actual drops in the modem logs. I suspect it is just an intermittent communication loss between the Imac and the Time Capsule, but I am not very familiar with Mac equipment yet.
Just wondering if anyone has experienced a similar problem and what you did (if anything) to resolve it?
Thanks.

The AirPort Express will connect to your existing wireless network if the network is using WPA2 Personal or WPA/WPA2 Personal wireless security settings.
So, it can join the network as a client and then provide an Ethernet signal to your Time Capsule.
Be sure to configure the Time Capsule to operate in Bridge Mode so that it will be operating on the same network.

You need to do a clean reinstall.
Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
* Firefox 5.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
* Uninstall your current Firefox version.
* Do not remove personal data when you uninstall the current version.
Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
* It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored elsewhere in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder] and won't be affected by a reinstall, but make sure that you do not select to remove personal data if you uninstall Firefox.

Sorry, no. Apple does not support downgrading.
Have you tried to go into your settings, reset, reset network settings? It'll erase your current network from your iPad and let you start over.
