Are there any other ways of backing up sms message...

Hi, I came across my old N95 8GB and realised it has old sms messages from someone very close who passed away recently. I want to sell the phone but don't want to lose my messages.
The problem I have is that I have tried every method to do this but all fail.
I have tried Nokia PC suite - just keeps showing 0 messages even though there are hundreds on the phone itself. Same with conatcs just won't show up so I cant back them up but there on the phone itself. Tried all the reinstalling stuff and updates and so on but have had no luck
Nokia Lifeblog - Same thing, shows no contacts or sms
Nokia Suite - This throws an error when trying to read contatcs "Reading the phone failed - "Reading contacts from Nokia n95 8gb failed. Reconnect USB cable to your phone or connect via bluetooth. Error code:80700004"
When viewing messages it just shows 0. I was able to view pics but nothing else.
I tried using xplore to manually find them but not sure where they are, I found private folders but they all seem confusing. I 've done a soft reset, restarts, everything.
Can anyone give me any ideas how I can save these old sms messages even if its just on my pc, I just don't want to lose them. Any help would be appreciated.

peterman50,
Welcome to Nokia Discussions
First, sorry to hear about your loss. Is the N95 8GB updated to the latest version? Maybe you can try removing the existing Nokia Suite and installing an older version which is version 7.1.180.94. Make sure you run the software "as administrator" on Windows 7 and 8 and when the phone prompt, choose Nokia PC suite mode.
If that does not help, try to back it up using bluetooth - dongle via pc or connection through a bluetooth enabled laptop.
Good luck

My new iphone was stolen today. I'm trying to track it via icloud but it shows the average ratio that the phone is disconnected. Are there any other way to track the phone. Thanks for your help.

If the phone is turned off, doesn't have an internet connection, or has been restored preventing "Find my iPhone" from being able to work, there is no other way to track it.

How can I configure iDS 4.12 for secureLDAP? Are there any other ways to avoid sending clear passwords doing a simple bind?

I want password-authentication in a secure way, may be secureLDAP is a good and cheap way to do. Or are there other functions that do a better job? What changes are needed?

If you want to secure LDAP,then SSL connections should be enabled.
If you want all the users of your Directory Server to use SSL or certificate-based authentication when they connect using LDAP client applications, you must make
sure they perform the following tasks:
? Create a certificate database.
? Trust the Certificate Authority (CA) that
issues the server certificate.

Besides "Find my iPhone", are there any other ways to track?

Hello,
So some tool stole my phone right out of the locker room today. This dude turned the phone off as soon as he could, so all I have is "offline" displaying next to the phone in "Find my iPhone". Is there anything else I can do to track it? It's 2014 and we're dealing with the most advanced smartphone on the market right now.
Thanks so much,
Johnathan

The good news is that with Find My iPhone and iOS 7, the device will be protected by Activation Lock. Go ahead and enable Lost Mode via icloud.com and Find My iPhone, and you can enter a custom message as well. Even if he restores the device 'as new' via iTunes, he won't be able to bypass iOS 7's Activation Lock.

Since I have the newest version of itunes, I can't back up like normally. The only way is to considilate files and then put them on an external drive which I don't have. Are there any other options? If I can't back up to a disc like I used to, can I instead just keep everything on my ipod and then if I have to get a new computer or something just download all my songs from the ipod to my new computer's itunes? Will that work? Will I still be able to keep all my songs that way?

I'm going to assume the consolidating files does not work due to hard drive space limitations.
Since you're moving to Windows 7, have you tried using the Windows files and settings transfer utility? That will move everything for you to the same location on the new computer, it also allows some control over what actually gets moved.
Alternatively, if you know the location of all of the media, it can be manually moved by copying it from the old computer to the new computer in the same location.
Also, using the Apple article on moving the library, take a slight twist on what it says. Move the iTunes library to the external drive, update the settings in iTunes to reflect the library being on the external drive, then consolodate it.
The options are endless for moving the library... it simply takes a little effort to make it happen and possibly a twist on existing "standard" methods depending on your unique situation.

I think you misunderstand... iCloud backups are stored in the cloud and not on the PC. So, if you do an iCloud backup, it won't take up room on the PC.
But, if you want to transfer the iTunes purchases over, set up Home Sharing. Also, see this link.

Is there anyway I can use my iPod Touch serial number or Apple ID to trace and find back my iPod Touch? Cause I lost it recently(as you know iPod Touch can only go online if there is WiFi). is there any other ways too, apart from contacting the police?

No.
- If you previously turned on FIndMyiPod on the iPod in Settings>iCloud and wifi is on and connected go to iCloud: Find My iPhone, sign in and go to FIndMyiPhone. If the iPod has been restored it will never show up.
iCloud: Find My iPhone
- You can also wipe/erase the iPod and have the iPod play a sound via iCloud.
- If not shown, then you will have to use the old fashioned way, like if you lost a wallet or purse.
- Change the passwords for all accounts used on the iPod and report to police
- There is no way to prevent someone from restoring the iPod (it erases it) using it unless you had iOS 7 on the device. With iOS 7, one has to enter the Apple ID and password to restore the device.
- Apple will do nothing without a court order

Additional things to try.
Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

I have photos on my iPad that I want to delete. This is my problem. I synced them from my ex-husband's Mac. We are no longer together therefore I don't have access to his computer or iTunes account. Is there any other way to delete them?

Is there any other way to limit the data a user can see

We are using Discoverer 10.2.xxx
We are running it against an Oracle applications database but we do not have Discoverer integrated with the apps. I have created database users for discoverer and granted access to the data at the db level.
We have about 40 salesreps and we only want each rep to see their own data. We have a high turn over with the reps
For now, I have created the row level security in that folder in my eul. If the username = XXXX then Salesrep = XXXXX
OR
If username = YYYY then DSM = YYYY
etc.. This goes on for about 40 users We have 3 levels of "users" - Salesrep, DSM or RSM (District or Region sales manager)
These users are setup in my apps and I can write a database procedure to select their salesrep name based on their username.
Is there any other way to limit the data that the salesreps can see ?
Possibly with a stored procedure some way?
Thanks
Angie

At a previous client's, I had created a system not too unlike what you're describing.
Basically, I created an Oracle table that stored information concerning the salesperson as in Oracle Apps the data was not reliable for what they were doing (ie: with adding Apps modules, sometimes salesperson data was there, but with say, CRM, it was in another place, etc.).
So, since this table was going to be used for driving everything about a salesperson (commissions, who they report to, when they started, territory, when / if they moved territories and/or manager, etc, etc.) I put lots of good stuff in it that would make life easier for them.
The end user in charge of all this had was given a Form to add, edit, delete all this good stuff and they were happy.
When it came time for security, it worked like a charm in that I used the concept of the BIS views where a user has an apps id associated to them and all data was filtered by that id. All I really had to do was to create this view that simply filtered data to that user's id. Then whenever I had a Discoverer report for salespeople, managers, etc. I just made sure the folder used had a join to this filtering view and I chose an item from the filtering view and all worked fine. All Discoverer reports only returned row level information for the salesperson who ran it.
Likewise, the same Oracle table was queried by another security view that only brought back the same IDs for the salespeople associated to each manager. When this simple view was joined to any sales Discoverer folder (and used in Disco), it limited all data to the salespeople the manager was responsible for.
Obviously this is just an overview and would take pages to explain, but essentially, if you can associate some kind of unique ID to each salesperson (I used the one returned in BIS views when someone logs into Apps, but you could just assign a different in your case), then you can create a view that filters to that id. Then when that view is brought into the EUL and joined to any other folder in the sales area (and you choose a column from the security view), you'll have what you're referring to - row level security for all salespeople and managers.
When it works - it sure does look impressive.
