Adapter Settlement

I've got a MacBook with the original power adapter that is showing definite signs of "Stress Relief Damage", and I'm eligible for a replacement. The site says,
"If your Adapter shows signs of Strain Relief Damage now or in the future, you may claim a replacement under
Apple’s Adapter Replacement Program by taking your Adapter and computer to an Apple Retail Store or Apple
Authorized Service Provider or contacting AppleCare."
The settlement site is here:
https://www.adaptersettlement.com/FileClaim.aspx
and the specifics about obtaining a new adapter when it's the original are here:
https://www.adaptersettlement.com/MPA_NOT.pdf
So I called my local Apple Authorized Service Provider. They claimed that I would need to bring the adapter in, where they would test it, and if it 'passed the test', they would then send the adapter to Apple, who would then issue the replacement. When I asked what I would do for power in the interim, they said, "Well, I don't know... borrow one from a friend? Buy a replacement?" Ummm... what?!? Why would I buy a replacement to use while I waited for my replacement? This makes no sense, and is not the way Apple does business. Has anyone else attempted to get an original adapter replaced and if so, what process did you go through? Suggestions?
Thanks for the help!

I've heard this, too. But since I have never been satisfied with this particular authorized dealer, I called first and got what I expected - a hassle. According to the settlement, I should be able to bring in the adapter and the computer, and walk out with a new adapter. But I'm at their mercy; the closest Apple retail store to me is 300 miles away.

Why did the Santa Monica Apple Store Refuse to Replace My 85 watt 'Magnasafe' adapter as per the legal settlement paperwork that was emailed to me???

Went to Apple store in Santa Monica, with "ol Sparky", my faulty 'magnasafe' adapter that came apart at the strain relief...
The "Genius" there, refused to exchange it unless I also brought the computer. The legal settlement paperwork just said to bring adapter, not the computer. Store puppet said no deal, come back later. I asked if there weren't sales records that could be used to facilitate the transaction, since I walked from the Canals to the Store, miles away. Store puppet said no, handed me my legal notice I recieved via E-mail, and walked away.
Grrr. 6 mile walk for nothin'. Thanks Apple!
So, here are my thoughts...
1. There IS a sales record, or I would not have gotten a legal notice via email about the settlement. The guy at the store lied to me.
2. The paperwork DOES NOT mention a requirement for bringing in the computer to replace the power adapter. Guy lied again.
3. Apple does not apparently want to fix the problem. Guy was consistant with this outcome.

You need to bring in both the mac and the adaptor. You were misinformed, I don't know why the legal notice you recieved didn't mention that. Read this article: http://www.topclassactions.com/lawsuit-settlements/lawsuit-news/1456-apple-macbo ok-power-adapter-class-action-settlement- in which it states the following
"If you did not buy a replacement but your MagSafe adapter shows signs of Strain Relief Damage (e.g.; fraying, melting, straining, sparking, weakening, discoloration, bubbling, overheating and/or separation of the Adapter’s strain reliefs) now or in the future, you can claim a free replacement under Apple’s Adapter Replacement Program by taking your adapter and computer to an Apple Retail Store or Apple Authorized Service Provider or contacting AppleCare. "
Here is also a KB document from Apple that also states "Be sure to bring in the computer used with the adapter; it is required to process potential adapter replacements." http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4127
You can get one, just go back with your mac. I know this is probably inconvenient (I wouldn't want to carry my mac 6 miles either), but it will resolve your issue. Good luck

Error during automatic settlement rule creation

Hi Gurus,
For the investment project, I maintained as follows, first level WBSE - Only planning element - no settlement. 2nd level WBSE - settled to AuCs. For level three & below settled to Superior WBSE. I had created the Settlement type with '5'. When I am executing CJB2 to create the Settlement rules automatically, I am getting the following error message for level 3 & below WBSE.
Enter a valid value for the settlement type :
Message no. KD199
Diagnosis
The system found a settlement type settlement type in the settlement rule which either does not exist or is unsuitable for the sender.
Procedure
If possible, enter a suitable settlement rule. Remember that the rules for preliminary settlement ("PRE") of capital investment measures are different from those for period settlement ("PER") of other settlement senders. Periodic settlement only makes sense for capital investment measures. They must not have any "PER" rules.
To enter an investment profile (in the control data for an order or WBS element) or to remove it. However, first delete the PER or PRE rules (in the settlement rule) and er zu in internal orders, you can first change the investment profile and then adapt the rules before you save.
Error(s) during creation of settlement rule :
Message no. ORB509
Diagnosis
Errors occurred during the check on settlement receivers.
System Response
Processing stopped.
Procedure
Check whether the:
Specific receiver Account assignment e actually exists
Settlement profile Z7 permits account assignment to the specified receiver
can anyone help me where I am making mistake or what is the procedure to be adopted for such scenario.
somebody else also had discussed the same issue in this forum but there is no answer for this.
thanks in advance

hi Sreenivas,
Thanks for your reply,
I tried this, system is giving the following error now

Message no. CJ115
Diagnosis
The system could not find a superior element for a WBS element while it was executing the function 'Derive structure'

What could be the reason ?

MagSafe adapter replacement program in Thailand?

Hi,
2 Hours ago I heard spark/ticking sound from the macsafe.
Instantly I unpluged it (a panic here) and then I saw the cord where it connected with the adapter has been torn and broken.
To confirm my bad luck, I plugged the power in again this time my runnig MBP shut it self down (more panic here). Many times, over 2 years my MBP has been foced to shutdown but this time it finally got me to think it might not start up again juding from PC experience usually when PSU went wrong the mother board also gone with it. Luckly I still can start it up but the date/time was reset to 2008. I searh for the magsafe failure and found a class action in 2009 for a free replacement.
Question:
- Is it free to get a replacement magsafe in Thailand?
A little info:
I visited them once for the tear and break to macsafe cord they said it's still working they can't do anyting.
The MBP was bought in Sydney,AU I'm living in Bangkok,TH
Any help would be most welcome
<Edited By Host>

I have been to that page, but it seems to partially conflict the info at the adaptersettlement.com site it links to.
Apple page: "Whether your product is in or out of warranty, you can take your adapter to an Apple Authorized Service Provider or Apple Retail Store for evaluation and replacement if necessary."
Settlement page: "For Adapters shipped with a Subject Computer, you will have three years from the date of purchase of the Subject Computer or May 21, 2012, whichever is later, to claim a replacement adapter. ... If you do not claim a replacement adapter within these time periods, you will lose your right to obtain a replacement."

Replacing "T" Mag Safe Adapter

Typically, I do not participate on these sorts of boards; however, I have had a pretty unfortunate experience today with Apple which I'd like to not only communicate but also seek help. As a preface, the city I live does not have an official Apple Store but only an Authorized Servicer.
As some of you might know already, there was a recent class action lawsuit put against Apple regarding the model "T" Mag Safe Adapter. Rather than going to court, they decided to settle. For those that purchased replacement cords, they were able to be refunded the full or partial amount; for those that did not, but experienced fraying (http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4127), they'd be able to receive a new adapter under Apple's Adapter Replacement Program by either going to an Authorized Servicer, an actual Apple Store, or by calling Apple Care.
When I went to the Authorized Servicer, they were of no help, stating that I would have to go to an actual store.
When I called Apple Care they incorrectly told me that the replacement was only good for up to three years since the purchase of the laptop. This was told to me despite the clear statement communicated on the Class Action Lawsuit website, https://www.adaptersettlement.com/.
Under the FAQ it was stated:
"For Adapters shipped with a Subject Computer, you will have three years from the date of purchase of the Subject Computer or May 21, 2012, whichever is later, to claim a replacement adapter. For Adapters purchased separately, you will have three years from the date of purchase of the Adapter or May 21, 2012, whichever is later, to claim a replacement. If you do not claim a replacement adapter within these time periods, you will lose your right to obtain a replacement. Apple will continue the Adapter Replacement Program until December 31, 2012; Apple will have no obligation to honor adapter replacement claims made after December 31, 2012. "
Obviously, May 21, 2012 has not occurred yet and therefore I ought to be able to replace my adapter.
Since I am still a poor college student, I'm not in the type of situation where I can simply drop $72 for a new adapter... Oh, yesterday the adapter completely stopped working due to the fraying...
Today Apple may have lost me as a customer.
If anyone has any suggestions for how I ought to proceed, please let me know.

Call AppleCare, ask to speak to a senior advisor, and give them the name and location of the AASP you went to that told you you had to go to an Apple store. When you call, be firm, but civil and demand Apple get in contact with that store. They will then most likely comply and give you a new charger. If still no resolution, call Apple Customer Relations 1-800-676-2775. If you can, follow up with the results. I'd be interested to hear. Good luck.

Commitment Line Item report - BE and Settlement Unit issue

Dear experts,
Request your kind help.
This is with respect to viewing the commitment line item report in ECC 6 for RE-FX master data objects. There are two scenarios.
Scenario 1
Purchase requisition (PR) is created with a business entity (BE) as an Account Assignment object. After the PR is released the same is used to create a Purchase Order (PO). After the PO has been successfully created, I am running the Commitment Line Item report (REISCOLIBD) giving the BE number as a search parameter. The report shows perfectly the PO and the amount of commitment.
Scenario 2
Purchase requisition (PR) is created with a BE as a Account Assignment object. Further to that under the Settlement section, inside the RE Obj box I am also specifying the Service Charge Key, the Settlement Unit and the Ref Date. After the PR is released the same is used to create a Purchase Order (PO). After the PO has been successfully created, I am running the Commitment Line Item report (REISCOLIBD), again by mentioning only the BE number as the input parameter. This time the report does not show the PO at all under commitment line items and instead gives the message "no line items were selected". But here is the catch. When I am running the transaction KSB2 and I am clickng on 'further selection criteria' and then 'Ref Doc num' and then typing the PO number and then running the report, it shows the result perfectly.
Can someone please tell me why in the second scenario, the transaction REISCOLIBD is failing to capture the data related to commitment line items?
Please refer to Note 1271310 to see how to adapt the transaction REISCOLIBD to suit the needs for Commitment Line Item report.
Regards,
Suvarghya Dutta

Hello all,
I have been able to find the answer. As of now Commitment Line Item report for any master data for service charge settlement does not exist and and as such wont be available.
Kind regards,
Suvarghya Dutta

Reading an external property file for adapter configurations (How-To)

One thing that has bugged me is having to change an Adapter's property settings in the context file and then build and re-deploy the bundle to effect those changes. This really becomes a problem when you want to test a bundle in different server environments (Development, QA, Staging) and then finally deploy that same bundle to Production. Here at EnerNOC, all those environments have different message servers and database schema names, making it a real challenge to insure you're building the same bundle each time for the different environments.
I played with a number of different ideas, but I wanted the solution to be Spring based. I finally settled on a rather simple solution to use external property files with the <util:properties/> tag of Spring, and then injecting the bean created from this into the adapters requiring different configurations.
First, in the context file, I needed to add a new Spring namespace - http://www.springframework.org/schema/util:
+<beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans"+
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"*
xmlns:osgi="http://www.springframework.org/schema/osgi"*
xmlns:wlevs="http://www.bea.com/ns/wlevs/spring"*
xmlns:util="http://www.springframework.org/schema/util"*
xsi:schemaLocation="*
http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans*
http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans.xsd*
http://www.springframework.org/schema/osgi*
http://www.springframework.org/schema/osgi/spring-osgi.xsd*
http://www.springframework.org/schema/util*
http://www.springframework.org/schema/util/spring-util-2.5.xsd*
http://www.bea.com/ns/wlevs/spring*
http://www.bea.com/ns/wlevs/spring/spring-wlevs-v11_1_1_3.xsd">*
Next, I defined a bean for my property file:
+*<util:properties id="serverProperties" location="file:./applications/MyApplication/server.properties"/>*+
And then finally, I modified my adapter to inject a Properties object and use that to define the other properties in the Adapter:
+*<wlevs:adapter id="MyMessageAdapter" class="com.enernoc.cep.message.adapter.MyMessageAdapter" >*+
+*<wlevs:instance-property name="properties" ref="serverProperties"/>*+
+*<wlevs:listener ref="HAInputAdapter"/>*+
+*</wlevs:adapter>*+
With this change, I can now build and deploy a bundle once to whatever servers I choose, and modify the server.properties file in each environment to make the necessary changes for message servers and databases. In a multi-server enviroment this becomes really handy as our deploy script needs to only create and push server.properties files and not new bundles.
As a nice-to-have feature someday, it would be great if Oracle could enable their <wlevs:/> namespace to recognize the Spring PropertyPlaceholderConfigurer feature, so that we could use placeholder variables for property values of <wlevs:/> specific tags.

Jim,
You can use com.bea.wlevs.spring.support.ConfigurationPropertyPlaceholderConfigurer, which is based on org.springframework.beans.factory.config.PropertyPlaceholderConfigurer. For example,
<bean class="com.bea.wlevs.spring.support.ConfigurationPropertyPlaceholderConfigurer">
<property name="location" value="file:config/test.properties"/>
</bean>
<wlevs:adapter id="myAdapter" class="oracle.cep.sample.MyTestAdapter" >
<wlevs:instance-property name="serverAddress" value="${serverAddress}"/>
</wlevs:adapter>
Manju.

Power adapter sparks

I just received email notice of the class action settlement on the MagSafe adapter for MAcBook Pro. I have a Samsung adapter - it sparks and overheats, just as the one in the recall, but I don't htink it's same one. How can I find if If I can get mine replaced?

Apple only supplies Apple adapters. If yours doesn't bear Apple's name, it isn't the original adapter that came with your computer.

Validating Internal Order Settlement Rule during creation

Does anybody know of a user exit, badi, anything, that can be used to validate assignement data when creating/changing the settlement rule on an internal order?
Appreciate the help...
Sam

Hi, I just wanted to come back and add this extra information incase someone else needs it in the future:
I think we were finally able to come up with an acceptable solution.
The Problem:
============
SAP does not provide an easy way to validate detail section of a settlement rule for an internal order. The user exits that are available do not import the COBRB structure that contains the screen data entered by user in the detail screen.
Solution:
===========
Watch out for wrapped lines!
(1) Implement the BADI: CO_SRULE_CHECK; NO filter; Settlement Rule Custom Validation BADI
(see current thread for details)
Inside the DISTRIBUTION_RULE_CHECK method of your BADI, implement your custom validation. You can call out to your standard CO validaton module, or whatever.
(2) Implement user exit: EXIT_SAPLRKIO_002(include zxaufu02): Call settlement_rule_check.
(3) Implement a subroutine as shown (adapt to your business environment):
FORM settlement_rule_check.
DATA: exit type ref to IF_EX_CO_SRULE_CHECK.
DATA: lt_cobra LIKE cobra OCCURS 0 WITH HEADER LINE, lt_cobrb LIKE cobrb OCCURS 0 WITH HEADER LINE.
don't validate in display mode
CHECK I_ACTVT NE 03.
Call function to get the current settlement rule from
memory buffer (this is the crux of the solution)
call function 'K_SETTLEMENT_RULE_GET'
 EXPORTING
 objnr = i_aufk-OBJNR
 x_all = ' '
 TABLES
 e_cobra = lt_cobra
 e_cobrb = lt_cobrb
 EXCEPTIONS
 not_found = 1
 others = 2.
if SY-SUBRC <> 0.
raising E_MESSAGE.
endif.
Now Prepare/call BADI to check the custom rules
class CL_EX_CO_SRULE_CHECK definition load.
create an instance of BADI
call method cl_exithandler=>get_instance
 changing
 instance = exit.
call the check method of the BADI
call method: exit->DISTRIBUTION_RULE_CHECK
 EXPORTING
 DISTRIBUTION_RULE = lt_cobrb
EXCEPTIONS
 not_allowed = 1
 not_allowed_with_msg = 2.
either use a standard message function or create your
own
IF sy-subrc = 1.
 PERFORM message_send
 USING 'KD' 'E' '027' space space space space space.
ELSEIF sy-subrc = 2.
 PERFORM message_send
 USING sy-msgid sy-msgty sy-msgno
 sy-msgv1 sy-msgv2 sy-msgv3 sy-msgv4
 space. "...
ENDIF.
endform.
(4) Test, Test, Test. Hope it works for you.

I'm running V10.6.8 and the system is not recognizing a San Disc adapter that I plug into the side of the keyboard. This always worked in the past. Whats changed?

I'm running V10.6.8 and the system is not recognizing the presence of a San Disc (SDHC) adapter that I plug into the left side of the keyboard. This always worked in the past. Whats changed? I can't upload my images to a folder.

Another item I'd found when getting an SD card for an older camera was the lack of backward support from the SD card if it was too new, while a newer camera can sometimes use an older SD card at a slower read-write speed. There are limits and ceilings on what kind of card works with old/new stuff.
So I ended up taking a nice SD card back to one store and had to settle on a 'walmart kinda dubious kingston two pack a cure' for the older Panasonic Lumix. Smaller capacity but seems to work OK for the era. I don't trust kingston with macs, but this 10 y/o Lumix seems to not care about that.
Hopefully you can obtain the correct cards, because some stores only sell parts for their inventory of cameras. And some adapters are limited too.
Depending on what I'm doing with the card and the camera it goes with, I attach the camera to the computer and not just the card in a reader. That way I can file items inside the camera SD card in a way the camera won't overwrite them. Later when I save everything from the card into an external hard disk drive, all my filed folders of images by date (I created in the SD) appear in order, in the later archive. Easier too, when I burn to DVD or CD media, to create yet another archive away from the computer or the camera.
Good luck & happy computing!

Delaying a service until a kernel module has loaded and "settled"

Hi,
I have a problem: a certain program is started too soon before a kernel module has had time to settle down. That means that the program needs to be restarted manually after each reboot, otherwise it won't detect the hardware.
The service in question is tvheadend (from aur) and the module ddbridge, which I've installed from outside of the kernel tree (since the one in kernel is out of date). That is a beta driver so probably it should settle sooner, but it doesn't.
From the recent boot (and others) I can see this:
$ journalctl -b | grep -i ddbridge
experimental: 1969cdc5388b711e2aef3d1747b5f7dd1cd965f3 experimental/ddbridge: Fix 'inlining failed in call to always_inline ...: recursive inlining'.

But the tvheadend unit file is run right after the module is loaded at 20:26:00, which is too soon before the device nodes have actually populated:

Any ideas how to 'delay' the service? Is there a .target or service (or similar) in systemd which can see if the kernel modules have settled down?
Is my only option making a dirty script that will check that the device nodes are there, or hard-coding a delay in the unit file? How would one do that?
Cheers!
Last edited by Wild Penguin (2015-04-27 21:15:44)

A simple way to do that would be to use a systemd timer unit, named '/etc/systemd/system/tvheadend.timer':
[Unit]
Description=Delaying tvheadend start
[Timer]
OnStartupSec=20
AccuracySec=5
Then:
# cp /usr/lib/systemd/system/tvheadend.service /etc/systemd/system
# cd /etc/systemd/system
# vim tvheadend.service
# diff /usr/lib/systemd/system/tvheadend.service tvheadend.service
14c14
< WantedBy=multi-user.target
> #WantedBy=multi-user.target
Edit: The above part is superfluous, sorry, see the next posts
Finally:
# systemctl disable tvheadend.service
# systemctl add-wants multi-user.target tvheadend.timer
# systemctl daemon-reload
This timer will start the 'tvheadend.service' 20 seconds (+~5 seconds) after systemd start time.
To my opinion, this is the easiest way to do that (no udev rule to write with the systemd device unit features which is much more complicated).

Problem with changing settlement rule

In a serviceorder when a user changes the wbs element in the additional data tab he or she also needs to change the settlement rule accordingly
further on their needs to be a check if the new wbs element is not TAFS and if the element is a wbs element (since also projects can be filled in here)
I have managed to programm the check in user exit EXIT_SAPLCOIH_009
there I can find out the new value entered by the user and check if it's correct
I only can't get the new filled in values before save from the settlement rule
when I use
 ASSIGN ('(SAPLKOBS)dkobr') TO <dkobr>.
 CHECK <dkobr> IS ASSIGNED.
the new values for the wbs element are not filled in dkobr when the user exit is running
is there any other way to find the new values for the settlement rule in memory in the user exit mentioned above ?
or is there a bapi or function to adapt the settlement rule automaticaly ?
I have looked at K_ORDER_SETTLEMENT_RULE but I don't see where you can enter the WBS element in this function ?
kind regards
arthur

You can achieve this by using the BADI - CO_SRULE_CHECK. ( Use Transaction SE18).
You implement this BADI - in the method DISTRIBUTION_RULE_CHECK you will be getting the Settlement lines. ( returned by COBRB - this table stores the settlement rules by object numbers - Object number of the Order is stored in AUFK).
From the above mentioned method - DISTRIBUTION_RULE_CHECK , you call a FM - READ_NOTIFICATION_BUFFER. This will return all the buffered data for Notification/Order. You can check the ncessary conditions and raise exception message.
You can use these follwing FMs from your customer exit - EXIT_SAPLCOIH_010 for changing the Settlement rules ( if you want to go that way) -
K_SETTLEMENT_RULES_UPDATE
K_SETTLEMENT_RULE_COPY
or search with K_SETTLEMENT_RULE* to get the list of usefull FMs.
Hope it helps.

Lenovo u410 Settlement Outside of US

Hi, I have been reading about the settlement regarding the U410 & U310 in relation to the wi-fi issues. Is this settlement applicable to customers outside of the US who also experienced this issue? I had to self repair my U410 to make it usable. The online application form seems to be geared towards purchases made in the US only which I would extremely unfair considering this product was also sold outside of the US. Seán

Yes, I spent 3 years at a Toronto Bank who bought say 500 systems or so plus notebooks. ThinkPad's and Think Center product. I supported did the warranty work while there. When the warranty was up it was up!! Even if a lowly optical mouse fail and a number of them did. Too bad nor replacement.
I've delt with IBM, Compaq and HP. There customer relations is entirely at at different level and would and did on may occasions provide one time post warranty repair even for catestophic issues well after warranty was over. This is a case by case basis. You could reach them and talk to them (locally) and not haveway around the world having no sense of what significance your case it.
There is a difference as was the turn around time 48hrs max and not weeks.
