Banjaxed by 3rd Party Synch Cable or is there hope?

I gave my old 2nd Generation iPod Nano to a nephew who had an old 1st gen iPod. He had a 3rd party usb connection/synch cable. We connected the Nano and its tiny screen flashed something about unable to synch using a firewire cable. We disconnected it and tried to use my cable. Now, no matter what cable we use, the Mac does not recognize the Nano.
I took the Nano back home. Tried it on my Mac with no success. My Mac recognizes my iPhone and other iPod using the same cable without a problem. I tried connecting it to a PC and Windows flashes up a warning saying there is an error with this USB device. I suspect I corrupted the iPod OS or the thing.
I tried resetting it by holding down MENU and SELECT. It reboots dutifully but still isn't recognized anywhere.
I tried putting it into disk mode by holding down MENU and SELECT then quickly holding down SELECT and PLAY/PAUSE. It enters disk mode without a problem but still will not be recognized by Mac or PC.
With exception to being recognized so it can synch or, in my case, BE RESTORED, it seemingly works just fine. It charges, it does everything. It has always been well cared for and is in PERFECT condition... not a blemish or scratch on this sucker. I would hate to have to toss it.
Is there anything an end user can do to force it into something like an iPhone's restore mode? I think it just needs to be lobotomized unless I really did banjax its circuits with that 3rd party synch cable.
Help?!

Usually, in these cases the iPod does need to be restored. And it is best to have your music backed up on something (like an external hard drive or even burned to a data CD). It seems to me that when programs other than iTunes are continually used to put songs onto the iPod, the iPod starts to run into problems.

Connecting my iPhone 4S with 3rd party composite cable; error "accessory not supported by iphone". Sound comes through and it charges but NO Video???

Connecting my iPhone 4S with 3rd party composite cable; error "accessory not supported by iphone". Sound comes through and it charges but NO Video??? I have verified the cable, I can play video with sound from iPod Nano 4th gen.

composite don't support mirror so it will only display on the tv when the app being used support tvout option
the build in video app does so it should display on the tv at least my composite cable does with my iphone4
the audio always works it's pretty much works like a headset

3rd party USB cable

Just a note to be careful with 3rd party USB cables and the iPad. I have one that works fine with an older iPod, but causes serious issues when used with my iPad. It causes disconnects during syncing and even causes several restarts of my iPad.
Definitely stick with the original cable.

Not surprising as the dock connector changed after the early iPods. Your iPod could easily be one from the older dock pinout. If it isn't then something strange is going on.
Definitely stick with the original cable.
While it is always good to be careful it is likely not really necessary if your cable is relatively new. I have a mix of cables from by 3G, 3GS, iP4, iPad, and various 3rd party cables. All work interchangeably.

3rd Party Charging Cable Does and Doesn't Work

I've got:
Apple Charger
3 ft Apple Cable
6 ft 3rd party cable
MacBook Pro
My 6 ft cable & Apple charger has been charging my iPhone 5S for months.
The other day when I tried plugging it in, I got the "not official charger or cable" message on my phone and it would not charge.
Using the Apple cable, no problem.
Using the 6 ft cable with my MacBook, no problem.
So why does it now complain about using the 6 ft cable with my Apple charger? (Also tried another Apple charger, same result.)

Hi,
Try a Reset... You will Not Lose Any Data...
Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
The Apple logo will Appear and then Disappear...
Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds...
Release the Buttons...
Turn the iPod On...
You may have to try this several times...

3rd party video cable "Not designed for iPhone" message

Ok i got the original Apple Component Video Cable...works fine and everything...i went to a friends (he has the 3GS) house and we are going to use my iPhone 4 to watch NetFlix on the big screen...he has a RocketFish brand(looks a lot better than Apple ones)...i hooked it up and says "not designed for iPhone" but works perfectly and even better picture quality...
So Why do we get a message like that were its pretty much the same cable just different brand? Is there like a chip inside that says original apple product or something?

you know i wonder the same thing im guessing that its the pin layout that does it and not a chip but thats my guess...

3rd party cables on iOS7

I made this post before but it was removed because iOS7 wasn't out 'officially' yet even though the GM was available for anyone to install without a dev account. Now that it is out I'm reposting it.-
So I just updated to iOS7 and found out that my 3rd party lightning cables no longer work. The charging indicator shows up but my battery keeps going down. The popup "This cable or accessory is not certified and may not work reliably with this iPhone" shows up and I dismiss it expecting it to be purely a warning to proceed at your own risk but instead the phone completely blocks the cable from doing anything. This is ridiculous, I've been using these cables daily for months because my original lightning cable stopped working reliably. Plus I wanted one in my car and one in my office and was not going to spend more than $7 for a cable. I know these cables work absolutely fine, this is purely malicious behavior by Apple to block them. It's my choice if I want to risk my hardware by using 3rd party cables, I'm well aware of what I'm doing. I know I'm not the only one in this position. Please chime in if you're in the same position and maybe we can get this ridiculous restriction reversed.

To bypass the software based block do the following.
Turn phone off.
As the phone is powering down, when the spinning icon is on the screen plug it in.
The phone will now charge to full
This doesn’t work if the phones fully powered down because it auto powers up the phone and recognises the chip and blocks it.
Its not ideal but it WORKS and is great for emergencies.
I suggest you search ebay for MFI / ios 7 cables there’s a lot out now. And NEVER update you're iphone again. Better yet just get a Samsung or htc or Google.
Its things like this that sent blackberry and nokkia down the tubes. Apple just did the same thing. They reached their tipping point. I've give the iphone 3-4 years before its just a memory like the nokia ringtone or the blackberry qwerty keyboard. We'll remember iphones for their touch screens I think. Great example of a company not learning from other companies mistakes and failing to innovate.
Apple blocked a lot of cable keys. Including offical keys that were suspected of being used on non-MFI cables.
Sony, Panasonic, belkin etc all pay big $$ to have a licence to use the proprietary 'lightning' cable. Which is basically a USB cable that apple wants everyone to use. The EU has laws against creating these kinds of devices due to the ewaste but because Apple is a monopoly they can do anything they want. USB, more particularly micro-USB is the standard for every phone and tablet device. Apple is the only manufacturer who appears to ignore ewaste laws and anti-competitive laws and continue to insist on ID chips in everything it makes. They would put them in your food and brain if they could lol. Welcome to aple.
If I was a business I'd do it too money money money! its the name of the game.
USB cables have never killed anyone yet somehow apple is trying to convince everyone they do lol... At least thats what their marketing team is trying like the devil to say. I wish I could make a 50cent cable and charge $25 for it.
PS I called apple twice and spoke to 2 'genius’s'. I took in 16 cables. They denied there was a problem and then said maybe try an apple cable... which of course worked. Their solution was to recommend buying 16 new cables... I walked out. Sickening. They were all scripted to say 'we've never had this problem' and simply deny what’s happening. Anyhow my company has stripped apple off recommended status and moved to replace the 230+ iphones we supplied to companies with other brands. No one can copy files over without itunes, no ones cables work anymore. No one can Bluetooth files. No one can use music. Our head bosses thought it would be a good idea to keep everyone uniform. Now they are trying to ditch apple products as fast as they can due to these kinds of screw ups every 6 months on top of zero innovation.

My MBP shut off after plugging in 3rd party USB and won't start up again

After I plugged in my phone to my MBP with a 3rd party USB cable it shut off and it never turned back on. I read online to wait it out and let the battery die and then plug the MagSafe charger back in. I waited about 24 hours and it still won't turn on. Should I remove the battery and re-insert it?

Try resetting SMC first:
Reset SMC
http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201295
Reset NVRAM
http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204063
Have you had battery issues recently?
"Should I remove the battery and re-insert it?"
If the SMC reset doesn't help then that's the way that the SMC was reset when you could remove the battery. We've had luck unplugging power adapter and the battery, pressing the power key and replugging the battery after a few minutes.
Late 2011 Macbook Pro refuses to boot. SMC reset doesn't work
"Thanks for your help. Disconnecting the battery and leaving it disconnected for minutes rather than seconds did the trick. I was able to then reset the SMC and it's fine now. Ordered a new internal battery as the one in use is 3 years old now. Maybe that will help."

How to publish a 3rd party webservice ?

Hi Guys,
I have a wsdl file of the 3rd party webservice and now i need to consume this service in ABAP on ECC 6.0.
I am following the video presentation by Thomas Jung
/people/thomas.jung/blog/2007/12/17/consuming-services-with-abap
while doing so the service already exists in SOAMANAGER under services so that it will be aviable for consuming. How can i make my 3rd party WSDL to be available there. Do i need to publish my service ?
any suggestions or ideas would be appreciated
Thanks,
Raj

Hi Rajeev,
I have consumed the the 3rd party WSDL and created the consumer proxy object with out publishing the service.
I have tried to define the Logical Port for this proxy in the SOAMANAGER and when i have provided all the details of the URL and Login details for the WSDL access settings with the option HTTP access.
I am getting the errros as below
SRT Framework Exception: Error in WSDL access: Exception occured in communication Framework:
Error in HTTP Framework:
I have tried the same URL in the browser with the login details and i am able to access the WSDL but from different server.
I am tryinng all these by logging into ECC 6.0 from the webgui on a different server. Do you think the actual ECC 6.0 server from where the request goes the might be blocked?
any help or suggestions would be appreciated
Thanks,
Raj

Migration of EmbeddedLDAP to 3rd Party LDAP

Hi,
Is it possible to migrate the complete authentication process of EmbeddedLDAP
used by Weblogic 8.1 to any 3rd Party LDAP system ? Even the system user (default
user : weblogic created during the domain setup) authentication should happen
on a 3rd Party LDAP system. EmbeddedLDAP can at the most act as a bridge between
Weblogic 8.1 and 3rd Party LDAP system. Is there any solution to this problem?
Thanks in advance.
Mandar

I do not believe there are any restrictions on removing the default authenticator.
When you boot the server make sure the user/pass is valid in the 3rd party LDAP
and they have the proper admin/oper privileges to boot the server.
You might want to configure the server with two authenticators first to verify
you can successfully authenticate to the 3rd party LDAP before removing the default
authenticator.

3rd Party Support?

I'm doing alittle research on Flex vs Silverlight - and i was
wondering what level of support does Flex have from 3rd party
vendors?
I know there's ILOG Elixor UI components, and this
Salesforce.com toolkit for Web Service API - is there a central
place where i can see these "addons" for Flex?
Thanks much

Hi,
Flex itself has a huge list of components and also has huge
list of components created by third party. Please find the
components at the URL below.

Communicating with a 3rd party system using webservices

Hi all,
I have a scenario
3rd party <-> XI<->CRM.
here im using SOAP between 3rd party <->XI, xi<->CRM im using ABAP proxies.
scenario 1. 3rd party would send messages(client request) to cRM to get some data. CRM has to respond for that.
scenario 2. CRM would request the 3rd party to get some data, then 3rd party would respond.
scenario 3. there is no request from 3rd party but crm has to send the data.
So 3rd party would communicate using webservices sends the request to cRM. if there is any request from cRM then 3rd party have a webservice to serve.
My question is
1) for cRM side i should create a webservice? if i create this where shold i create? i mean i should put this webservice on WAS of CRM or on XI ? If i create this webservice and put on CRM WAS, could this communicate with XI by using ABAP proxies? when CRM sends a request to 3rd party, to send this i should create another webservice ?
could you please anyone tell me about this?
thanks a lot in Advance

Hi,
<i>for cRM side i should create a webservice? if i create this where shold i create? i mean i should put this webservice on WAS of CRM or on XI ? If i create this webservice and put on CRM WAS, could this communicate with XI by using ABAP proxies?</i>
As to your first question, you dont have to create webservice on CRM side, all you have to do is to define an outbound interface in XI, and generate proxies for that outbound interface in CRM.
<i>when CRM sends a request to 3rd party, to send this i should create another webservice ?</i>
You havent specified who the 3rd party is DataBase/R3/etc. Let us assume the end system is truely external from your landscape. if the 3rd party provides you with a webservice, you can import taht webservice into XI and use it as an inbound interface.
Hence, you would then map the outbound interface from CRM-> XI to your inbound interface XI->3rd party.
3rd party provided webservice could be written in java/.net.

Any 3rd party armband suitable for Nokia 5630?

Hi,
I've been thinking about getting a Nokia 5630 Comes With Music, but there's one thing that has been stopping me.
Isn't it little odd that this phone is targeted to music lovers, but there are no official armbands (for sports and jogging)? This is kind of a deal breaker to me, as I would love to listen to music whilst jogging.
I couldn't even find any 3rd party armbands, and with those there's always the risk that the phone doesn't fit snuggly (annoying when jogging and the phone keeps moving).
Please help me get rid of my money by recommending something to solve this problem :')

Why not try the Nokia CP-402?
(Two colours available)

Contracts Management 3rd Party Software

Good afternoon,
I have been asked to implement a Contracts Management solution using SharePoint 2010. I am by no means a professional and I feel this is beyond my abilities. I created a custom list with expiry date. Also it lists the contracts ending in 60days and ending
in 120days. There will be roughly 500 contracts uploaded to the custom list/library. I have since been asked to have the contracts sorted within groups (not folders) I am not sure how to do that. A SharePoint Designer workflow is needed to alert someone when
the contract is up for renewal. I have read all the threads and Google info regarding that step and I can not get it to work.
Is there a 3rd party Contracts Management software out there that can be used via SharePoint? I have a feeling my simple solution will not be good enough as I am sure they will need files archiving and more functionality down the road.
Thank you.

To group the items in the list is really easy once you know how. Let's say you have a choice field called 'market area' which might be Public, Education, Finance etc.
You can then create a 'view' in the list that groups the items by that column.
http://office.microsoft.com/en-gb/sharepoint-server-help/create-modify-or-delete-a-view-HA010377693.aspx
There's a dozen ways to do the notification emails bit. The simplest, and best, is to create a 'Policy' in the list for that document.
This is an example of someone doing what you wanted (and asking for a bit more which is trickier)
http://sharepoint.stackexchange.com/questions/83019/email-group-when-documents-reaches-expiry-date
There's going to be a million 3rd party tools that can work with SharePoint to greater or lesser degrees. If you really want to determine what to go for you'll need to do a full requirement capture exercise to identify exactly what the system needs to do.
One of SharePoint's strengths that is often underrated is that it's highly flexible compared to most software at that scale.

I have a 3rd party hard drive with movies on it ,it is connected to my airport extreme. The AE is connected to my tv via ethernet cable. Can I stream my movies to the Tv ?

I have a 3rd party hard drive with movies on it ,it is connected to my airport extreme. The AE is connected to my tv via ethernet cable. Can I stream my movies to the Tv ?

Not without a player..
The AE is a dumb file server.. the hard disk you plug in is an even dumber hard disk.
There are no smarts in this setup.. not even DLNA. So the TV would have to be an extremely smart one to read raw files on a network drive.. none do that I know of.
A solution is WD live TV.. it can read files from just about any file source on network and play them to the TV.
Nothing apple makes will do that.. ATV is a streamer not a media player. Everything in the Apple world is tied up with itunes. So you must have a computer running itunes to use it.
You can download a more generic player for ipad, and put that as part of the network.. but you still need ATV to display the video.

Banjaxed by 3rd Party Synch Cable or is there hope?
