Authorization loss and the future

For whatever reason, my laptop lost track of the fact that I'd deauthorized it before sending it in to have its MB replaced (Nvidia recall).
When I reauthorized, the process 'ate up' my remaining 5/5 authorizations.
(A) Is there any appeal process for this?
(B) I'm pretty sure that, a few years ago, I 'reset' my authorizations (you try having two teenagers in the house) and was told no more resets would be made available. Do I have this right? Worried about what will happen if I need a fresh authorization in the future.

Thank you!!!

Yep: thus this from my initial post here:
"I'd deauthorized it before sending it in to have its MB replaced (Nvidia recall)."

  • Photo Organization and the Future

    Here's my concern - utilizing aperture to organize my projects and albums, departing from managing the file structure (which is getting impossible to keep up with) I have to assume that Apple and Aperture will always be around.
    What if in the future I want to switch to Light Room, or go back to windows? I have nearly 35,000 photo's now, and I imagine I'll have more in 50 years but I have no idea if Aperture will still be around in 50 years and If I stop paying attention to my file structure, I'll lose all the organization behind my masters.
    Aren't any of you concerned about the distant future? Apple could pull the plug on Aperture; somebody else could come out with somethign better; etc.

    No, I'm not concerned about my file structure. The fact that Aperture takes care of that for Managed libraries doesn't mean that there is no structure. The library normally resides in the Pictures folder. If you open the package you will find the folder for all your masters - the structure there can be easily decoded. There are lots of other files used by Aperture when manipulating or displaying images. If you need to get your original photo images at some time they are there. If you shoot in RAW then you might need to worry about some future time when no one supports your camera's version of RAW, but that's a different issue. You can also, in the distant future, export your edited photos to a new location.
    If you have a Referenced library then you are responsible for the storage, backup and structure of those images.

  • Portal and the Future.

    We are under going a major re-development effort on our internal and external sites. Part of the project will be using portal.
    We are planning the Portal part prototype on 1.0.2.2 but are a little concerned about the future changes of portal. We assume that the portal will have an upgrade script but we are worried more on the provider classes. Are they going to remain the same? Should we develop now or wait for the new version? Will it give us added access to the portal API to allow for addition functionality?
    Thanks,

    In iAS v9.0.2 (the next release of iAS), there will be 2 versions of the JPDK API - version 1 and version 2.
    Version 1 is virtually identical to JPDK 3.0.9 (no API changes), with some additional functionality for supporting mobile devices. Version 1 will be supported as long as Oracle Portal release 3.0.x is supported.
    Version 2 has some API changes and the packages have been re-organized. If you use the DefaultProvider and DefaultPortlet classes currently, the changes to you code will mainly be changes to import statements to reflect the new package structure. If you implement the Provider & Portlet interfaces or extend DefaultProvider/DefaultPortlet, you will have some additional code changes, but the changes are relatively simple.
    In addition, most of the interfaces have been replaced by abstract classes.
    These changes were made in the interest of future stability - allowing the API to be extended without breaking existing implementations.

  • ColdFusion and The Future

    Admittedly, I've been a bit out of touch ... however I was
    wondering what the future of ColdFusion is regarding Adobe... have
    they made any announcements about the future of ColdFusion? How
    will it compete with formats such as PHP/mySQL in the future? Being
    a long time fan of Cold fusion, I'm curious about this.

    >> 2. Image manipulation functionality -- provides both
    high-level tag
    based abstractions for common tasks like resizing, cropping,
    and
    format conversions
    That so slack how CF still doesn't have this functionality
    already - lets
    hope its not too late to make a difference. Nice feature
    though, sounds like
    it may be quite sophisticated.
    All in all though, based on what has been revealed here, it
    doesn't sound
    like much of an update - would still like to see some higher
    level
    framwework stuff, or maybe even a ColdFusion IDE (Heck, how
    can they sell
    this product at this price and not even offer an IDE for it?)
    Lets hope the future reveals something a little more exciting
    than what was
    mentioned here.

  • OWB bugs, missing functionality and the future of OWB

    I'm working with OWB for some time now and there are a lot of rough edges to discover. Functionality and stability leave a lot to be desired. Here's a small and incomplete list of things that annoy me:
    Some annoying OWB bugs (OWB 10g 10.1.0.2.0):
    - The debugger doesn't display the output parameters of procedures called in pre-mapping processes (displays nothing, treats values as NULL). The mapping itself works fine though.
    - When calling selfmade functions within an expression OWB precedes the function call with a constant "Functions." which prevents the function from being executed and results in an error message
    - Occasionally OWB cannot open mappings and displays an error message (null pointer exception). In this case the mapping cannot be opened anymore.
    - Occasionally when executing mappings OWB doesn't remember changes in mappings even when the changes were committed and deployed
    - When using aggregators in mappings OWB scrambles the order of the output attributes
    - The deployment of mappings sometimes doesn't work. After n retries it works without having changed anything in the mapping
    - When recreating an external table directly after dropping the table OWB recreates the external table but always displays both an error message and a success message.
    - In Key Lookups the screen always gets garbled when selecting an attribute as a join condition
    - Usage of constants results in aborts in the debugger
    - When you reconcile a table used in a key lookup the lookup condition sometimes changes. OWB seems to remember only the position of the lookup condition attribute but not the name.
    - In the process of validating a mapping often changes in the mapping get lost and errors occur like 'Internal Errors' or 'Null Pointer Exceptions'.
    - When you save the definition of external tables OWB always adds 2 whitespace columns to the beginning of all the lines following 'ORGANISATION EXTERNAL'. If you save a lot of external table definitions you get files with hundreds of leading whitespaces.
    Poor or missing functionality:
    - No logging on the level of single records possible. I'd like the possibility to see the status of each single record in each operator like using 'verbose data' in PowerCenter
    - The order of the attributes cannot be changed. This really pisses me off expecially if operators like the aggregator scramble the order of attributes.
    - No variables in expressions possible
    - Almost unusable lookup functionality (no cascading lookups, no lookup overrides, no unconnected lookups, only equal condition in key lookups)
    - No SQL overrides in soruces possible
    - No mapplets, shared containers or any kind a reusable transformations
    - No overview functionality for mappings. Often it's very hard to find a leftover operator in a big mapping.
    - No copy function for attributes
    - Printing functionality is completely useless
    - No documentation functionality for mappings (reports)
    - Debugger itself needs debugging
    - It's very difficult to mark connections between attributes of different operations. It's almost impossible to mark a group of connections without marking connections you don't want to mark.
    I really wonder which of the above bugs and mssing functionality 'Paris' will address. From what I read about 'Paris' not many if at all. If Oracle really wants to be a competitor (with regard to functionality) to Informatica, IBM/Ascential etc. they have a whole lot of work to do or purchase Informatica or another of the leading etl tool
    vendors.
    What do you think about OWB? Will it be a competitor for the leading etl tools or just a cheap database add on and become widely used like SAB BW not for reasons of technology or functionality but because it's cheap?
    Looking forward to your opinions.
    Jörg Menker

    Thanks to you two for entertaining my thoughts so far. Let me respond to you latest comments.
    Okay, lets not argue which one is better.. when a tool is there .. then there are some reasons to be there...But the points raised by Jorg and me are really very annoying. Overall I agree with both yours and Jorg's points (and I did not think it was an argument...merely sharing our observations with each other (;^)
    The OWB tool is not as mature as Informatica. However, Informatica has no foothold in the database engine itself and as I mentioned earlier, is still "on the outside looking in..." The efficiency and power of set-based activity versus row-based activity is substantial.
    Looking at it from another way lets take a look at Microstrategy as a way of observing a technical strategy for product development. Microstrategy focused on the internals (the engine) and developed it into the "heavy-lifting" tool in the industry. It did this primarily by leveraging the power of the backend...the database and the hosting server. For sheer brute force, it was champion of the day. It was less concerned with the pretty presentation and more concerned with getting the data out of the back-end so the user didn't have to sit there for a day and wait. Now they have begun to focus on the presentation part.
    Likewise this seems to be the strategy that Oracle has used for OWB. It is designed around the database engine and leverages the power of the database to do its work. Informatica (probably because it needs to be all things to all people) has tended to view the technical offerings of the database engine as a secondary consideration in its architectural approach and has probably been forced to do so more now that Oracle has put themselves in direct competition with Informatica. To do otherwise would make their product too complex to maintain and more vendor-specific.
    I am into the third data warehousing/data migration project and my previous two have been on Informatica (3 years on it).I respect your experience and your opinions...you are not a first timer. The tasks we have both had to solve and how we solved them with these tools are not necessarily the same. Could be similar in instances; could be quite different.
    So the general tendency is to evaluate the tool and try to see how things that were needed to be done in my previous projects can be done with this tool. I am afraid to say .. I am still not sure how these can be implemented in OWB. The points raised by us are probably the fall out of this deficiency.One observation that I would make is that in my experience, calls to the procedural language in the database engine have tended to perform very poorly with Informatica. Informatica's scripting language is week. Therefore, if you do not have direct usability of a good, strong procedural language to tackle some complicated tasks, then you will be in a pickle when the solution is not well suited to a relational-based approach. Informatica wants you to do most things outside of the database (in the map primarily). It is how you implement the transformation logic. OWB is built entirely around the relational, procedural, and ETL components in the Oracle database engine. That is what the tool is all about.
    If cost is the major factor for deciding a tool then OWB stands far ahead...Depends entirely on the client and the situation. I have implemented solutions for large companies and small companies. I don't use a table saw to cut cake and I don't use a pin knife to fall trees. Right tool for the right job.
    ...thats what most managers do .. without even looking how in turn by selecting such a tool they make the life tough for the developers.Been there many times. Few non-technical managers understand the process of tool evaluation and selection and the value a good process adds to the project. Nor do they understand the implications of making a bad choice (cost, productivity, maintainability).
    The functionality of OWB stands way below Informatica.If you are primarily a GUI-based implementer that is true. However, I have often found that when I have been brought in to fix performance problems with Informatica implementations that the primary problem is usually with the way that the developer implemented it. Too often I have found that the developer understands how to implement logic in the GUI component (the Designer/Maps and Sessions) with a complete lack of understanding of how all this activity will impact load performance (they don't understand how the database engine works.) For example, a strong feature in Informatica is the ability to override the default SQL statement generated by Informatica. This was a smart design decision on Informatica's part. I have frequently had to go into the "code" and fix bad joins, split up complex operations, and rip out convoluted logic to get the maps to perform within a reasonable load window. Too often these developers are only viewing the problem through the "window" of the tool. They are not stepping back and look at the problem in the context of the overall architecture. In part Informatica forces them to do this. Another possible factor is they probably don't know better.
    "One tool...one solution"
    Microstrategy until recently had been suffering from that same condition of not allowing the developer to create the actual query). OWB engineers need to rethink their strategy on overriding the SQL.
    The functionality of OWB stands way below Informatica.In some ways yes. If you do a head-to-head comparison of the GUI then yes. In other ways OWB is better (Informatica does not measure up when you compare it with all of the architectural features that the Oracle database engine offers). They need to fix the bugs and annoyances though.
    .. but even the GUI of Informatica is better than OWB and gives the developer some satisfaction of working in it.Believe me I feel your pain. On the other hand, I have suffered from Informatica bugs. Ever do a port from one database eingine to another just to have it convert everything into multi-byte? Ever have it re-define your maps to parallel processing threads when you didn't ask it to?
    Looking at the technical side of things I can give you one fine example ... there is no function in Oracle doing to_integer (to_number is there) but Informatica does that ... Hmm-m-m...sorry, I don't get the point.
    The style of ETL approach of Informatica is far more appealing.I find it unnecessarily over-engineered.
    OWB has two advantages : It is basically free of cost and it has a big brother in Oracle.
    It is basically free of cost...When you are another "Microsoft", you can throw your weight around. The message for Informatica is "don't bite the hand that feeds you." Bad decisions at the top.

  • I have just purchased a new pc and when I try to play 2 separate albums that I bought from the itunes store I get a message that my computer is not authorized. I then follow the steps to authorize it and the same thing happens when I attempt to play this

    Just purchased a new pc with windows 8. Transferred over my itunes. With 2 different albums in my library, when I attempt to play this music I get a message saying my computer is not authorized. I then sign in to authorize the computer, itunes  tells me it is indeed authorized, I attempt to play this music again and I get the same "your computer is not authorized" message again, and again....
    Any help out there on this one would be appreciated. If my question is not clear enough I will attempt to help.

  • ISight, Apple Care, and the future...

    Hi there. I have a few questions I am looking for answers for...
    First off I am definately going to buy a MacBook Pro. I need it for the end of September but am not sure when the best time to buy is. I heard that Apple were introducing a new chip type in September but I'm not too keen using publicly untested products (think the first week of the Pro being released). Can anyone confirm this is true? Also are Apple releasing/upgrading anything in the next few months?
    Secondly, can you use the in-built camera with MSN Messenger?
    And lastly what are the benefits to Apple Care? It's a lot of money. Is it worth it?
    Thanks to all in advance

    I heard that Apple were introducing a new chip type in September but I'm not too keen using publicly untested products (think the first week of the Pro being released). Can anyone confirm this is true? Also are Apple releasing/upgrading anything in the next few months?
    This first question is something no one here can answer, since only Apple employees under a nondisclosure agreement would know the answer. Also, speculation about future products is something Apple doesn't allow on their forums. But there are a lot of other forums where you can discuss this.
    Secondly, can you use the in-built camera with MSN Messenger?
    At least when this post was answered, it looks like the answer was no. But that could have changed since then, possibly, and there were also some suggestions in that topic for alternate MSN Messenger clients. Check for a new version of MSN messenger or any information about future plans for updates, maybe?
    And lastly what are the benefits to Apple Care? It's a lot of money. Is it worth it?
    That's for you to decide, but in my opinion it's worth it. It extends the hardware warranty to a total of three years, and since it's an actual Apple warranty, not a third-party warranty extension, it's very easy to get service under the AppleCare Protection Plan (APP). I find it valuable for notebook computers, which tend to have more odd issues over time due to more moving parts, etc. And it seems especially likely that one might need an extended warranty for a computer with as new technology and design as the MacBook Pro. For some details about how an APP works, see Is phone support and warranty service free?
    It does not cover accidental damage. For that kind of coverage you need to look to homeowner's insurance or a computer insurance policy.
    Keep in mind that while the list price of an APP for a MacBook Pro is $350, you can buy it from any Apple authorized retailer and pay significantly less, sometimes as low as $270, easily for $300.

  • A Question of HD DVD and the future

    Currently, iDVD 6 burns DVDs as SD 640 x 480 resolution, regardless of the source material.
    I am currently using Photo to Movie to create 16:9 HD movies with 1920 x 1080 pixel resolution, which I know will be scaled down to SD when I render this in iDVD.
    Is there any current software that can render my movie to that full HD resolution and, if so, what sort of HD burner would I need?
    Or, should I wait for iDVD 7 (assuming this will cope) and a new Mac DVD burner built in?

    Hi Karsten!
    It's me SDMacuser .....I'm considering upgrading my
    Sony TRV900 to a Canon HV10
    http://www.usa.canon.com/consumer/controller?act=ModelInfoAct&fcategoryid=177&mo delid=14059
    or I might just keep the Sony TRV900 as well since I don't know exactly how useful my G4's will be with HD content (if at all).
    Any words of wisdom (short of buying a new mac as well)?

  • T500 performanc​e loss and restart issue after low battery shutdown

    Hi,
    Some days ago I experienced a significant loss in performance of my T500. Unfortunately it seems to be a continuous loss and the games I play, e.g. empire total war that did run ok before are nearly unplayable at the moment.
    Additionally, when the computer shuts down due to low battery, it no longer manages to resume windows but always crashs during reboot (black screen and hard disk symbol is moving, no other activity for 10 minutes)
    I am working with the standard vista installation and installed all automatic updates, but also every time when I shutdown the computer, no matter how long it has been running (even after 1 minute and after a rebooting 3 minutes ago), the red shutdown symbol in start shows that an update needs to be installed.
    any ideas?
    Many thanks in advance !

    Well, the problem, seem's to have reoccured: Battery ran out (even the indicator leds on the side didn't show any life), Time reset  to 1.1.2001, again some rebooting and setting the time again...
    Is this a sign of a degrading battery health status?
    It looks like reseting the SMC didn't help after all.

    ‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
    Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
    I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
    Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
    1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
    2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
    3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
    4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
    5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
    6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
    7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
    8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just canceling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
    If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.

    Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.

    1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
    2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
    3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
    4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
    5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
    6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
    7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
    8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just cancelling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
    If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.

    ‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
    Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
