Annoying messages bug when using mass storage to s...

As you all well know the c: drive on n97 is quite small. I have about +2000 messages on my phone and I use the 32gb mass storage to store all of my emails and sms's.
It works ok untill I connect my phone to pc using mass storage mode. The first thing it does is it says e: drive unavailable - using c: to store messages. Ok - that makes sense BUT the darn thing doesn't switch back to using e: drive when I unplug it from the computer. Instead I have to switch it back to e: manually (from sms settings and email settings). It's also impossible to move messages that I have received while using mass storage mode to the drive e:
I really hope that nokia does sth about this matter. It's the single most annoying bug that this phone has.

To answer a few questions here...
The way the mass memory is broadcast to the computer when connected in PC Suite mode is called "OBEX". It's a kind of file transfer protocol. When it's connected in "mass storage" mode it uses an industry standard usb-storage protocol exactly like pen drives, external hard drives, external CD/DVD drives etc.
The difference between the two is that in mass storage mode, the phone relinquishes control of the storage space and hands it over to the host computer. That way, the computer sees everything on that device and it also happens to be compatible with more or less every operating system under the sun. In PC Suite mode, the phone retains control of the storage space and decides what to let the computer "see". Directories that are crucial to the phone's operation, such as "private" and "system", are not shown to the computer. Added to that, the computer needs specific drivers to be able to use the OBEX protocol, and this excludes non-mainstream operating systems.
As for being able or unable to transfer messages from one area to the other, the reason is fairly simple. Messages are stored in their own directory inside the "private" directory. If, for example, there's no such directory set up on E: when you want to choose that drive for storing messages, the phone considers that it has never been used for this and therefore asks you if you want to copy your messages from C: to E: so that they're still available to you once you switch over. If, OTOH, there is already a trace of E: having been used for storing messages (ie. if the messaging directory inside E:\Private does exist) then the phone considers that you might not want to clobber what's already there and doesn't offer to replace them with what's on C:.

How to do not insert the message content in the Message Inbox when use MFMessageComposeViewController control

Dear all.
In my app use the MFMessageComposeViewController control to send SMS message.The message content will be inserted to Message Inbox of iPhone.
How to do not insert the message content in the Message Inbox when use this control?Because my message content has been encrypted. I don't want user can see them.
Thanks

I can't remember the steps, but if i'm not wrong, there are many "next" to click, and at the last windows, there is one dialog box with "do not show this message again".Maybe something to do with the registry, to enable to view this dialog box again. Date: Thu, 2 Feb 2012 06:38:24 -0700

E71 Firmware Bug with USB Mass Storage.

Hi,
Just got a e71, it has the latest firmware, it's mostly good except for this bug.
If you install a new theme on a memory card and then attempt to use the USB for mass storage it will always lock the card no matter how you disconnect from the USB, it always reports Memory card in use.
What is supposed to happen is the phone is supposed to switch to a theme on the phone memory and unload the theme on the card, it does indeed switch themes, but does not unload the theme on the card, so the only way to free the card is to reboot the phone.
If anyone from Nokia is looking at this forum, you guys need to fix these little bugs with the firmware. A update to the OS the E71x is using would be nice by the way. I paid a lot of money for this unlocked phone and expect it to be rock solid.

I had this problem with the memory card. All you do is set the USB connection to PC suit and not Mass Storage. If it's in PC suit mode you don't loose the memory card and it always let you access it. I never bother with mass storage anymore. Also set to don't ask if you want. I ahve no issues since I di this and am using the 200 firmware.
To transfer files to the card I go into my computer, double click the picture of the nokia E71 and then double click the memory card and access it that way. Hope this helps as it's a pain installing everything on the phone.
Just another quick tip if you download the themes through your phone like me once installed and after a re-start something may try and install and fail once your phone starts up. It will do this everytime you re-start your phone. To fix the issue you have to browse the memory card with 'view hidden folders' selected in Windows and delete certain sis files from a certain folder. I can't remember off the top of my head but it explains it in another post in this forum. I can't take the credit for it.

Bug when using IBOT

Hi all,
has anyone had this kind of error?
I am using IBOT, and I set Schedule_ to Start Date=21/09/2009, Time of Day=08:00, Set Time Zone=GMT+01:01, and Recurrence_ to Every 1 week(s) on MON.
When I look overview of this IBOT, everything is fine, but when I go Show IBOTs acting on my behalf Next Run is not date that I had set. And IBOT is not running in time that he should. But when I set Recurrence_ Daily Every 7 day(s) every thing is OK. IBOT is running and Next Run shows correct date and time.
Thanks

This looks the same as bug 5539348 "Schedule an iBot to run immediately and weekly, the immediate run doesn't take place". According to that bug when you say start immediately and run every 1 week you are actually saying start the schedule now not start the ibot?! So a schedule is created in the scheduler to run your ibot every week on Mon but it does not run it immediately.
I think this is a bug with the weekly schedule though as setting it to 7 days seems to fix it. The bug database seems in infer that later releases of 10g fixed this problem so it might be worth upgrading to a newer patch release if it becomes a problem and seeing if this fixes it.

Data refresh bug when using inheritance?

I am getting unexpected behaviour when using the pm.refresh(Object) method.
Refresh works correctly and reloads data if the lock has been updated on
tables/objects with no inheritance. However, if I try to use refresh on an
object that is part of an inheritance hierarchy, the query that is executed
to get the jdolockx value is missing the table join.
Example:
Table Entity
id
displayname
jdolockx
jdoclassx
Table Individual (inherits from Entity)
id
firstName
lastName
jdolockx
Query executed when calling refresh and passing in Individual
SELECT
t0.JDOLOCKX
FROM
ENTITY t0,
INDIVIDUAL t1
WHERE
t1.ID = 1151
Problem
Missing crucial join t1.ID = t0.ID
These classes work correctly with correct SQL when inserting/selecting.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

"Resend" word at message subject when using GMail

When I send a message through Mail using the GMail server, the message is stored in the sent folder with the word "resend" in the subject. Why does this happen? Was the message sent or not?

I'm not computer-literate enough to answer your question, but I can confirm that the solution that was recommended to me has indeed worked, and I have had no problem with these pop-ups for the last week. - Chris.

Retrieving messages - FIFO when using Correlation ID

Hi,
I've implemented a dbms_pipe clone using AQ (we're using RAC which doesn't support dbms_pipe - long story). Basically I've simulated dbms_pipe message queues by using CorrelationID's.
Unfortunately, it seems that when retrieving a message by CorrelationID, the order is undetermined. It is critical in my scenario that messages are dequeued in the order they were enqueued.
Does anyone have a trick or suggestion to solve my dilemma.
Thanks,
Steve

Thanks for the reply. I should have explained myself a bit better. We had a number of existing apps that were developed using dbms_pipe. When we migrated to 11g RAC, of course everything broke.
So I built a package that provides an identical interface to dbms_pipe but uses dbms_aq under the covers (which is RAC-friendly).
I need to use the CorrelationID because I am implementing multiple 'logical' queues (similar to the dbms_pipe functionality) inside a single AQ queue. Messages are tagged with a CorrelationID which represents the logical queue.
If there are multiple messages for a logical queue, calling the dequeue method with a CorrelationID (logical queue) does not necessarily retrieve the messages in FIFO order. On re-reading the documentation I see this is the expected (but in my case undesirable) behaviour.
I hope this explains my dilemma a bit better :-).
Thanks,
Steve

Potential bug when using Parsley 2.4.1 and Cairngorm's module 0.17 in Flex 4.5.1

Hi
I have an issue when using cairngorm's ModuleViewLoader along with ParsleyModuleDescriptor to load a simple module consistig mainly of HBoxes, VBoxes and Datagrids.
The module consists of one child (let's call it ViewA) and that child consists of several children as its components.
When I use cairngorm's ModuleViewLoader along with the ParsleyModuleDescriptor and Parlsey to inject the modulemanager in my main app, the module loads, as well as ViewA but some nearly all of ViewA's children are not loaded (in fact they're initialized but creationComplete is not invoked).
When I use Flex's mx:ModuleLoader all ViewA's chikldren are initialized and creation complete is also invoked.
I will attach the source as a zip file later on....
but for now...this is all I can give http://dpaste.com/713503/
Thanks
Andreas

Did you ever find an answer to this? I am running into the same issue with needing to upgrade parsley to 2.4.x, but with parts of application heavily relying on cairngorm module, upgrading it from module-0.11 to 0.17 seems to break compile!

Strange UI bug when using People view/face recognition

I've started playing with the face recognition in LR6/CC and have encountered an odd display bug when viewing the groups of 'named people':
The thumbnail for each named person includes a count of how many images (or perhaps that should be faces) are attributed to their specific name. However, once the number of images for a person exceeds 100, LR only displays the first two digits in the thumbnail and drops off the third one, e.g. 254 is displayed as 25. If you hover over the thumbnail, the full count (e.g. 254) is displayed so long as the mouse cursor is kept on the thumbnail. Interestingly, once the number of images attributed to a named person exceeds 1000, it does the same thing, only it adds an extra digit (so 1400 becomes 140).
I'm running this on Win7.
Anyone else seeing this?

I guess I was primarily "testing the water" to see if the problem was specific to my configuration in some way, but you make a fair point John.
Here's my (possible) bug report: LIGHTROOM Facial recognition: thumbnails not displaying full number

BUG: When using HTML buttons, message view goes to the end

As suggested by Host Kady, we are now extracting Bugs and Enhancements from our consolidation threads, and re-posting them individually.
Reported by Da Gopha:
When composing a post, selecting text and pressing one of HTML formatting buttons causes the message display to snap to the end of the text.
Whilst not a problem for small posts, it makes editing longer ones very irritating.
Kind regards,

No, after you make the call, it's carrier business, the recipient has to contact Telstra about call that goes straight to the message bank.

Message looping when using g-mail

I need some help! I set up a new g-mail account on my MacBook and when I am using it, it automatically sends the message to my Blackberry Curve while I am composing the message. Then, when I move messages in my g-mail account to "trash" the system dumps them into my Blackberry. Is there a filter available to make this go away. It is really annoying to have to sit and dump 50 to 60 trash messages out of my Blackberry when this happens.
Thanks

Weblogic bug when using setProperty?

          Hello,
          We're using Weblogic 5.1 SP8.
          The bug (I think it's a bug) occurs when setting a property to an empty value:
          the old value keeps remained.(see attachment)
          The problem occurs when the scope is set to session (using request works fine,
          application I didn't test).
          Will this issue being solved with installing SP9 (or 10?).
          Is this a known bug? If not where should I submit it (I took a look at the site
          but for now I didn't find a place where one can submit bugs)?
          All answers are welcome,
          Frederic Marius
          [att1.html]


          It's not a bug???
          So it is logic that when the property is made empty (when you have previously
          assigned it a value)
          - the property IS CHANGED when the bean is in the request scope
          - the property IS NOT CHANGED when scope is session
          This seems pretty confusing to me, and I can't imagine what could be the reason
          for wanting such a behaviour.
          When the spec says you shouldn't change the value of a property when it's according
          parameter has "" as value, that implies that you can only set values in a form
          and not unset them anymore. Seems pretty strange to me.
          Most logic behaviour is that the property is set to an empty string when you delete
          the values from the input field.

ITunes 11.4 bug when used with OS 10.6.8 - won't sync or backup iPhone

I actually just wanted to post this in case Apple monitors these boards. iTunes 11.4 says it's compatible with OS 10.6.8 or later, but there is a bug in it when you're running OS 10.6.8 that prevents you from backing up or synching your iPhone (in my case, a 5s). Doesn't matter what iOS you're running. If you attempt to backup in iTunes 11.4, it immediately ends the backup and only displays "Other" content being stored on your phone. Also, the "Sync" button is greyed out, so you can't even attempt to sync.
No amount of restoring (even a DFU restore) or reinstalling iTunes 11.4 will fix this. The solution is to delete iTunes 11.4 and its related files and to reinstall iTunes 11.3.1, at least until Apple gets the bug corrected. After hours of restores trying to resolve it, I followed this process and it completely solved my problem in about ten minutes. I found the solution with instructions in this thread:
Upgraded to iTunes 11.4 and now it won't sync my iPhone 5s-sync button is greyed out.
Thanks to cwa2, enee and Zak for supplying the solution. I've also summarized the steps here.
(1) Use this link to download a copy of iTunes 11.3.1:
http://www.v3.co.uk/v3-uk/download-review/1957301/apple-itunes-for-mac-1110
(2) Delete the following iTunes 11.4 components (they will be replaced when you install iTunes 11.3.1) by dragging them to the Trash:
/Applications/iTunes.app
/Library/Frameworks/iTunesLibrary.framework
/System/Library/CoreServices/CoreTypes.bundle/Contents/Library/MobileDevices.bun dle
/System/Library/Extensions/AppleMobileDevice.kext

/System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/CoreFP.framework
/System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/DeviceLink.framework
/System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/iTunesAccess.framework
/System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/MobileDevice.framework
(3) Some people have had trouble seeing the contents of the CoreTypes.bundle to get to the MobileDevices.bundle. You can access it this way:
In the Finder, select Go To Folder under the Go To menu (or Shift+ Cmd+ G)
Type in: /System/Library/CoreServices/CoreTypes.bundle/Contents/Library/
The MobileDevices.bundle will be displayed; drag it to the Trash.
(4) Empty your Trash.
(5) Install iTunes 11.3.1, and go back to living your life. Remember, do not upgrade to iTunes 11.4 again until you're certain the bug has been resolved.

In Reply to all fellow Apple fans: It is great that someone found a work-around to the iTunes 11.4 no syncing problem. I think that is fine for the short term. And I am really glad that we customers have a forum to share information and experiences regarding Apple's products. However, as someone here said, we are all customers; and posting a problem here "IN HOPES THAT APPLE READS THESE POSTS" is NOT a way to resolve this issue or any issue.
PLEASE CONTACT APPLE: Apple Service Center: 1-800-275-2273 - Once you get a ticket number then and only then is this documented and then Apple can follow-through and alert the engineers who will fix this.
The "CWA2" work-around band-aid does several things in addition to reverting back to iTunes 11.3.1. :
1) It ensures that Apple continues to know nothing of the problem.
2) It ensures that the faulty code that is within 11.4 remains there and is perpetuated into future versions.
3) It ensures that YOU can never upgrade to future versions. (If the resident faulty code remains and perpetuates)
So once you have reverted back to 11.3.1, the problem APPEARS to have gone away (FOR YOU) but you have not solved the problem.
Again, respectfully,
1) Sending feedback to apple (using the "Report Bugs To Apple" menu item in Safari will get the information to someone, somewhere and add it to the pile of issues, complaints, suggestions, etc.
2) CALLING the Apple service/support Center at 1-800-275-2273 will put you in touch with a real APPLE person who will begin the process of documenting and forwarding this issue on to those who will fix it.
and
3) emailing Apple directly will make sure that they get the information.
lets get this fixed !!!!!!!!!

IPhoto 11 bug when using external editor (Photoshop Elements)

In iPhoto 11, my iPhoto database is confused/corrupted whenever I edit a picture in my external editor (Photoshop Elements 8). I believe this is an iPhoto problem because the picture is not corrupted until I quit iPhoto try to re-open the edited version.
Steps I take:
1. Pick a file, and "Edit in External Editor". Duplicate of the file is made (ThisPic.jpg becomes ThisPic_2.jpg), and that duplicate is opened in PSE. I edit the photo in PSE, and hit Save - PSE updates ThisPic_2.jpg. I close PSE, go back to iPhoto, and I can do whatever I want to the file - double click to view larger, export, everything seems fine. When I pick "File | Reveal in Finder" and use either the "modified file" or "original file" option, they take me to ThisPic_2.jpg in the finder.
2. Close iPhoto
3. Re-open iPhoto
4. Now, that file seems to be corrupt in iPhoto. I can see the thumbnail image for ThisPic_2.jpg, but nothing else works. I double click on the file, and I get a black screen with a triangle and an exclamation point in it. When I try to export the file, nothing happens.
The interesting thing is when I go into "File | Reveal in Finder". When I pick the "modified file", it doesn't seem to find it - I am shown the root of my hard drive in the finder. But when I pick "original file", it takes me to ThisPic_2.jpg, and I can use preview to see that my edits are still there.
I copied that file to the desktop, re-imported it into iPhoto, and I can access that photo again through iPhoto - everything works, even after I close and re-open iPhoto.
I reported this through the iPhoto Feedback option. I thought I'd share what I found in case it helps anyone else.

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. I get the same response when I follow your workflow. If you select the thumbnail of that photo and use the Photos ➙ Revert to Original menu option you will be able to view the photo in full size.
Evidently editing in iPhoto with an external editor puts the edits on the duplicated original file and puts that file in the same Masters subfolder as the first file was imported into. Once iPhoto is restarted the links are messed up and the Revert gets rid of the "edited" link and keeps the link to the file in the Masters folder.
It definitely is a bug. However, it's not taking up more space on the hard drive than the edit that resulted in a modified file linked to the original file. There still are just two files.
Subsequent edits to the file with the external editor result is the edits being added to the file with no problems if iPhoto is closed and relaunched. The downside is that if you make 3 edits to the file you can't go back one edit. It's non reversible. The edited version can be deleted leaving the untouched original version.
Subsequent edits to the same file with iPhoto work as usual, with a modified version being created.
So Old Toad, I have just gone from iPhoto 9 to iPhoto 11 and step by step this is what is happening for me.
In iPhoto 9 if I selected photoshop to alter an image it created one duplicate version of the image and put that into the modified folder and that edited image became the image you would see in the events viewer. All very logical.
Now iPhoto 11 is doing the same for me but is creating multiple duplicates ie. everytime I select photoshop to edit an image. One image I edited recently has now got 6 versions in the library. If that is the way iPhoto works then that will be fine as it is doing it's job for me but the caviat is have I got 6 times the memory space being used up or does it just appear that way? If the memory space useage isn't being increased then I am OK with this new way of doing things but if the memory space is being used up then it is a fiasco - especially as apple are concentrating on writing their systems to use up less space than before in line with current thinking.
Look forward to you clarifying this point if you can.
