Anyone else's dented out of the box?
Just picked up a new 15" 2.5 this evening, get home (after the store closed, natch) to find that there's a dent on my right speaker grille. Will have to take it back tomorrow, which I'm not too thrilled about. Anyone else have one dented out of the box?
I agree! I had bought a new macbook pro the day it was first available (15th) and I noticed a bad pixel a week later, even though it was only 1, i got a new one. There is no way I am paynig 2000 bucks for a laptop with a pixel out, even if its so little, its all I could notice on the screen that little red dot. So a day after I got my new one, the mouse pad didnt click right, it clicked very well on the left and not on the right and I was having the "sleep issue" as others are. I took that one back the next day and got ANOTHER NEW ONE...so far no problems with this one .
With the money we spend, i want a FLAWLESS machine out of the box, let me dent it, or break it, i dont want one that is already broken.

Anyone else received dented iPad air out of the box?
Anyone else received a damaged iPad air out of box?... 2 dents on back out of the box.
I just took a call from my local reseller and Apple have agreed to replace the iPad. A bit late for a Christmas present - but it appears to be ending well.
I'll be certain to unpack and check everything before leaving the store next time -
IPod Nano 7th Generation - Bad out of the box?
I just purchased the iPod Nano 7th generation today and came home to sync it with iTunes. iTunes recognizes the device for a second then I receive a "Disk was not ejected properly. If possible, always eject a disk before unplugging it or turning it off." message. I can see the iPod in iTunes for a second then it disappears. As I keep it plugged in it will recognize, disappear, reapear then disappear again.
I purchased an iPod Touch 5th generation today and that is working just fine (as well as synching my other iDevices). Is this nano bad out of the box?Same thing happened to me. It did download the playlists I wanted, but the next time I plugged it in it acted as though it was being plugged in for the very first time, (regsitration and set up etc.)
But the really bad news is the BATTERY LIFE. maybe get one hour of play time before it drains to zero.
Anyone else have this issue? -
T3i won't turn on out of the box
I just bought a Rebel T3i and it won't turn on out of the box. I've done everything exactly as the directions say, but each time I flip the "on" switch, nothing happens. I've managed to turn it on but ONLY by flipping the "on" switch, taking out the battery, putting it back in, then flipping the battery door closed (entire sequence with the "on" switch in place). So far, of all the things I've tried, this is the only thing that works. Has anyone else had the same thing happen or can help me figure out what might be wrong? I live in Africa and had the camera brought here with a friend, so unfortunately, just returning it isn't really an option at this point. Thanks!
And you are certain the battery is charged before you try?
Otherwise, returning, or warranty service may be your only options.

Out of the box behavior of the Pagination control
Why does the Pagination invoke the PageFactory callback upon page count change? And when it does invoke it, why is it with currentPageIndex=0? Should there be an API to remove this listener if this is undesirable behavior? If we know we may need to alter the Page Count after construction of the Pagination control, would it be best to remove the old one, and construct a new one for display at that point since the current implementation seems to behave inconsistently when one wants to alter the Page Count post-construction and/or callback configuration.
Please consider the following scenario:
The user is viewing a TableView of items. Below the TableView is a Paginator whose PageFactory callback fetches rows from a database and calls TableView.setItems(<results>). There are 3 pages and the user is on the 3rd page. Only 5 rows remain out of a possible page size of 20. The user decides to delete the 5 remaining rows on page 3 from the table/database. Now it would seem natural at this point to conclude that page 3 no longer exists and we would want to the user to return to page 2. If we simply call paginator.setCurrentPageIndex(currentIndex - 1) then we will correctly transition the user to Page 2, however Page 3 will remain displayed in the Pagination control and if the user browses back to that page, he is met with the "There is no content to display" label. So it would seem natural that we could presume this happening and instead call paginator.setPageCount(2), then paginator.setCurrentPageIndex(currentIndex - 1). That way the Pagination control reflects an accurate number of pages. Unfortunately, this results in TWO callbacks to the PageFactory method, one at currentPageIndex=0 and another at the correct index. Sometimes the widget that is constructed in the PageFactory callback (TableView) doesn't get displayed properly (disclaimer: speculation ahead) probably due to some asynchronous nature of the two competing callbacks (?).
I'm struggling to get a handle on this control. So far, my experience with TableView has been pretty good. I love the features you get with this Pagination control out of the box, but some of the choices that were made with regards with what APIs to expose confuse me. The frustrating thing about callbacks is that sometimes you can get caught in this callback hell where there are all sorts of callbacks being invoked and you don't really know why. Often times, the Javadoc does not indicate that there is a default listener being applied to certain property that may invoke one of these callback. I don't mean to sound like a rant. Overall my experience with JavaFX 8 has been very positive so far. I can usually always find a workaround if a come across a weird issue with an out of the box control. Worst comes to worst, I'll write my own Pagination control.
Thanks for your time.For anyone else that may come across this post. I was able to find a workaround by simply using a field, boolean pageCountReset, and then bounding all of the logic in my page factory call back with a condition checking for this boolean value i.e. if (!pageCountReset) // continue, else // noop. Then, if I need to reset the page count, I set my boolean to true so that the page factory callback results in a noop. Because the pagination control under the hood will make currentPageIndex=0 (as I talked about above) if the page count is reset, I then have to be very explicit and either call my page factory callback manually to refresh the current page if it still valid, or I call pagination.setCurrentPageIndex(<new index>) so that the page factory callback will be invoked and pageCountReset will be false at this point, so I can successfully transition pages.

Out of the box execution plan for Payables EBS 11.5.10
Has anyone else experienced performance issues with the out of the box execution plan for the Payables subject area for Oracle EBS 11.5.10? Our incremental ETL for this particular subject area is taking 8+ hours. I understand that there are several factors involved with performance and that there are a lot of AP transactions, but this is ridiculous for a nightly incremental ETL job.
In particular it is the SDE_ORA_APTransactionFact_Payment task that is taking forever. This query appears to have extremely high cost (see explain plan below). Has anyone been successful in rewriting or changing this query?

Thanks for the reply.
The payables documentation (i.e. User Guide) discusses about options that could be used in implementing EFT. However, if possible, we would like suggestions on what would be the better ways to implement EFT (US bank) using either XML or text formats. We would also prefer not using e-commerce gateway or EDI.
Thanks in advance.

Is the iPod video supposed to suck out of the box?
I just purchased a brand new 30 GB iPod video and it's awful right out of the box. Everytime I start it up for some reason I get that Apple restart screen but nothing is restarted. When I click on a song under and album it takes 30 seconds to a minute for music to even start and when it does it's two or three songs later than what I actually clicked on. It's also incredibly slow switching songs and menus, especially songs.
I heard the iPod videos can just be like this and many are. Is this true? If so, back to the drawing board, Apple.

I read it now supports firewire but i don't believe it. Well I got a new a 30 Gig Video Ipod too and it works like a charm, you probaly got a defected model, it happens, and if you have a warranty get it replaced because even the limited warranty from apple will take it back if its defected (just don't say you dropped it even if you did). -
Out of the box macbook pro 15" c2d problems
evening all,
right out of the box, i have had kernel panics every time i boot my new macbook pro c2d. i have also had the awake from sleep problem some people seem to be having. i am also unable to install either boot camp, parallels, or vmware. i have tried winxp, 2000 and vista in every combination. every time i try it corrupts the volume beyond repair and i have to wipe the hard drive and reinstall os x. i am getting worn out by banging my head against the wall. i thought this stuff was supposed to be easy. when i went to check on the firmware version for my macbook pro 15" c2d i noticed that i have the boot rom version and the smc version installed for original 17" macbook pro not the c2d version. it won't let me change the firmware back to a 15" c2d. it is showing MBP12.0061.B03 1.5f10 and i should have MBP22.00A5.B00 1.12f5 according to apple specs.
i will try to reset my smc, but the pram can not be reset via the usual keyboard combination because it just doesn't work like it did on my powerbook.
i am also going to try disabling the hibernate mode as suggested via terminal.
i am going to try trashing the plist preferences for the .AutoWake, PowerManagement and the systemuiserver.
i also have the problem when reinstalling os x several times that the optical drive gets stuck reading the original system disks and i have to start all over again. whew!!!
btw, i am a hardware tech but this is too much of a waste of time.
any other suggestions are very welcome.
macbook pro 15" c2d Mac OS X (10.4.9) tricked out powerbook 15"here is an update for everyone, or at least you will get a good laugh out of it. I sent the macbook to applecare to be fixed and I just got it back. they replaced the harddrive and restored the os.
guess what? I turned it on and it had a kernel panic! then I tried to set up a user account and it had a ......... kernel panic! I had to laugh, what else can you do at this point?
they didn't fix what i told the tech support guy was the biggest issue on this machine. the boot room version is still MBP21.00a5.B01 which is for the 17" C2D. it is paired with the smc version 1.12f5 which is the version apple has listed for the 15" version. tried to change the boot room but it tells me it does not need the correction. everyone knows best yet i still get ....... kernel panics.....! lmao
here is the last kernel panic log if anyone is interested:

Trouble with log in after my brand new, out of the box computer, sleeps.
I'm having trouble logging in after my computer sleeps, I cannot directly do so even though my user account option is displayed. I have to "choose another user" and re-choose my user account. Does anyone else have this problem? Does anyone know if it can be fixed?
Info: Computer is brand new, out of the box today. There are 4 other accounts set up on the computer.The warranty entitles you to complimentary phone support for the first 90 days of ownership.
If you bought the product in the U.S. directly from Apple (not from a reseller), you have 14 days from the date of delivery in which to exchange or return it for a refund. In other countries, the return policy may be different. If you bought from a reseller, its return policy applies. -
Help Please - on a VC that works out of the box with MAC before I sellup
I have to declare that I’m somewhat frustrated at the moment and I could do with some good advise please bare with me while I explain.
I have recently converted from all types of PC systems and MS OS to Apple. The conversion was based on a few drivers.
1, My wife finally has decided to “learn” how to do her own web work instead of asking me to look up this or that for her. So as she was starting from scratch I thought MAC.
2, At the same time I had a play with Vista at work and disliked it. I was using XP & W2K at the time.
3, I wanted to update my home hardware, which was 3 years old.
4, The accountant said I hadn’t spent enough on IT last year.
5, New project work in the planning that required video/audio work to upload onto the web and everyone said MAC was the best.
So having looked around and done what I thought was enough research I started investing. To date I’ve invested £4500 plus.
Started by buying
iMAC 24” 2.8 Gz Intel with 4GB ram (for the home office)
MacBook Pro 2.4 with 4GB ram (for out and about working)
iPHONE 16GB (which is great)
VMware Fusion was installed for those things that I couldn’t live without until I found a suitable replacement like MS Money, Paint Shop Pro, MS Office etc. Installed XP.
Tried Open Office found it to clunky and hard work working off files for MS Office that others sent/required. Ended up buying Office 2008 only to find VB macros don’t work in Excel and all my company spreadsheets still need PC MS Excel to run so back into XP via Fusion.
Then to MAIL which is great on the iPHONE as I can easily monitor my 5 email accounts, what a result. But now I come to attach JPG files as I would in outlook and they open into the content of text in the mail and will not stay closed but disrupt the message. Wholly unacceptable to my way of working with no cure.
Scanning next, so I down loaded GIMP to replace PSP which I find useless so back to PSP I go again via XP & Fusion.
Next and finally the VC project, Now please bare in mind that all I want to do is shoot film, upload it to edit it and then mount it on the web page. I have no desire to become any form of expert in the field just get the job done.
So reviewed iMovie to understand the spec. Realise it has limitation and reviewed FCE which seems to plug the gaps and boarders on being more professional.
At this point I must say I’m not totally new to this subject as I have used Studio8 and a JVC GR-DVL166EK video cam a couple of years ago and got on ok without any issues simple plug and play with great results.
Having reviewed the standards that the software is reported to work too without any publicly declared exclusions or exceptions by Apple I went shopping for the VC. (I didn’t know of the forum at the time and to the best of my knowledge Apple don’t advise of its existence in any product information on anything I have bought.)
I buy a Panasonic HDC-HS9 for £700 which doesn’t flaming work despite the fact that it should based on all the standards quoted by both manufactures and there are no disclaimers from either party that it won’t work.
I have reviewed the compatibility list on the support page (now I know its there) and find that the Panasonic HDC-SD5 does work. I reviewed the comprehensive detailed model spec on the Panasonic web site and there is no differences between the to models at all accept the HDD.
So why don’t it work?
*At the end of the day can anyone please recommend a VC that will produce high quality results without the need of a 3rd party software to connect and upload files convert and muck about instead of getting on with the job.*
And if all the publicised specs don’t allow you to conclude compatibility how can you protect your investment? Where do we legally stand and where is the accountability to the consumer.
<edited by host>
I am that fed up with the last 3 months of mucking about Bill Gat*es may just get me back.
Thanking anyone in anticipation for some meaning advise and help.
Regards
AlanHi, and thanks for you interest. The problems is that whether I'm using iMovie or FCE I get to a stage where the thumbnail image is present but if you try to play, import or any other action in either app it closes down and a message comes up " The Application Final Cut Express/iMovie quit unexpectedly - Mac OS X and other application are not affected" then asks if I wish to relaunch. I then hit the report to Apple button and afterwards relaunch. I was recommended to use Voltaic which I have tried, it worked but is to much mucking about for something that should work out of the box.
This problem happens on both the iMAC and the MacBook so quite sure it's not a OS software issue. All software update are up to date also.
Any ideas? -
Not able to start out of the box approval workflow programmatically
We have a requirement to start an out of the box workflow from a .NET web service.
We are using the StartWorfklow method:
wfManager.StartWorkflow(item, association, association.AssociationData
we are getting the below error message at the above line of code: Attempted to perform an unauthorized operation.. Data: System.Collections.ListDictionaryInternal
Then, we tried:
SPSecurity.RunWithElevatedPrivileges(delegate()
wfManager.StartWorkflow(item, association, association.AssociationData,
SPWorkflowRunOptions.Synchronous);
Now, the workflow got canceled automatically with "Failed on Start" status. In the "Workflow History", it is showing 2 records with "was canceled by System Account." & "failed to start" in the description
column.
Please advise.Hi Zhengyu,
1. I've already done that:
a) when "SPSecurity.RunWithElevatedPrivileges(delegate()"
is used, there are no errors showing up and code gets executed. However, the workflow failed to start.
b) When I don't use elevated privileges, the code is showing an error (Attempted to perform an unauthorized operation.. Data: System.Collections.ListDictionaryInternal) when
it tries to start the workflow (StartWorkflow method).
2. The workflow starts with no issues through UI. I tried it using "System Account" and another account.
3. I tried also "Collect Feedback" workflow template. Same results...

why is my mac so slow i have cleansed and cleaned it is a 2010 mac mini i5 but it runs like a 20 year old pc i have only had it for a few months and it was straight out of the box
I'm thinking that you have a > Mac mini (Mid 2011) - Technical Specifications because the 2010 model's only have Core 2 Duo processors and the 2011 had the first i5 processor.
2 GB of RAM is the minimum requirement for Mountain Lion, but it's hardly enough to really enjoy doing anything else.
see > Memory and Free Installation Guides for Apple Mac Mini
Plus I don't have any problems running Mountain Lion and a load of App's on my 2010 Mac Mini with 8GB of RAM. -
12GB already used on out-of-the-box refurb MBP?
Hi-
Just a quick question--
My refurbished 15-inch MBP (2.2 Ghz, 120 GB hard disk) just arrived. I took it out of the box, started up and registered, and was planning to shift things from my old Powerbook G4 in Target disk mode, etc, but haven't done ANYTHING else yet. Out of curiosity I clicked on About this Mac, and saw that my HD has a capacity of 111.47 GB (I understand that "120 GB" probably means about 111 GB in reality), but that there is only 99.05 GB available, and 12.42 GB already used. Is that how much is needed for the basic Tiger (10.4.10) and applications that came preloaded on my MBP? If not, any ideas why 12.42 already used? Should I do an erase-and-install with Tiger OS? Do you think Apple didn't fully clean or erase the disk?
Thanks,
SamanthaWhen Apple says "120 GB hard drive" they mean 120 billion bytes. But strictly speaking, 1 GB is 10243 bytes, not 10003 bytes.
So when Finder says "111.47 GB capacity", it means 111.47 gigabytes, which is 111.47×10243=119.69 billion bytes. So your question is actually what happened to the missing 296 MB (or 0.31 billion bytes), and the answer is one of rounding error, disk overhead, or an extra partition on the hard drive used for booting. (The Boot camp forum has comments about an "extra" 300MB partition on the hard drive.)
Unfortunately, the misleading "x GB hard drive" label for what is really an x÷1.0243 GB drive has become an industry standard, and is always stated in the fine print. -
Out of the Box alerts and messages. Necessary?
Hi,
I have installed Grid Control and I am monitoring a couple of Hosts and DB's and well, before I even did that I noticed that Grid had a whole bunch of Critical and warning alerts along with Policy Vioalations. Now I assume these are out of the box alerts and messages, cause some of them seems pretty dumb to me. I know we can change them to change the values but I just wanted to make sure if I should really worry about these or not? Are they really serious. Some of them don't make any sense to me and I have been trying to look online at places where I can find out what they mean exactly and how to correct them. Does anyone know how to. These messages are just annoying and I would like to log in to Grid and see no alerts or violations. Here are some examples of what I am talking about. Any advice or help is much appreciated :)
Examples Alerts:
-51.55% of all processes are in zombie state, crossed warning (35) or critical (50) thresho...
-Number of Active Agents exceeded the critical threshold (1). Current value: 0
**This one seems dumb to me since I only have one agent on the server and the threshold is set to 1!!!!
-Metrics "Current Open Cursors Count" is at 1673
-Target is in broken state...
**This one I would really like to figure out what it means. It is listed under the errors tab.
Example Policy Violations:
-Critical Patch Advisories for Oracle Homes
-Listener Direct Administration
-Use of Hostname in Listener.ora
-Oracle Home Executable Files Owner
Thanks-Critical Patch Advisories for Oracle Homes
Nice but pretty obvious - only need if you have a security policy at your company-Listener Direct Administration
Dont believe in that one ...-Use of Hostname in Listener.ora
Same with this ..-Oracle Home Executable Files Owner
Should be fixed .. a valid problem. -
OIM 11gR2 - Out-of-the-box Approval Workflows
Does anyone know of any good resources that describes the out-of-the-box approval/provisioning workflows of 11g R2? I have searched Google back and forth but found nothing. Some of the workflows are obvious by their name (such as default/BeneficiaryManagerApproval!1.0), but others are not so clear regarding their flows.
On that same note, can one of the out-of-the-box approval workflows be configured to route to an approval group instead of single users?
Thanks for your help!Instead of searching for docs in google i guess reverse-engineering on your own will be the best way to understand the approval workflows. Navigate to OIM_HOME/server/workflows/composites. It will contain all the approval workflow zip files. Unzip the required one which you want to understand and there will be a .jws file in it. Now open that in jdeveloper and open AprrovalProcess.bpel and composite.xml. It will show how the approval routes and what are the business rules written, everything. It is the best way to understand the approval workflows.
In the same way u can make changes to the out-of-the-box approval workflows also. See this OBE tutorial to understand how you can assign the approval to a group

Also please try the approval workflow given in the developer's guide which covers most of the basics.
