Beware the new Kid Deleter...

There's a new kid on the block... quick on the draw... quicker still to shoot...
Apart from arbitrarily locking threads, s/he's now taken to deleting them.
Beware folks! The thought police are here!! (Or should it be speech police?)

I believe this particular forum has been a bit on the wild side.
Quite... driven to despair by the state of the forums and sheer indifference of Adobe. There are some Adobe foks like John C and Kanguyen who are making a definite attempt. However, my feeling is too little, too late.
Matters are definitely not helped by hosts arbitrarily locking and / or delteting threads. There was a moderator called Zoro or Zero or something... he vanished after a while and now we have 'Kid Deleter'...I posted a comment earlier about this and it just vanished. Without even a by-your-leave.
The pomposity of these guys...
There are always other ways to steer things back on track.

  • After backing up on iTunes, the new update deleted everything!!

    Hi!
    I have an iPod 4g.  I backed up my information on the iTunes, then followed the steps to download the new update.  After all is said and done, which took about 20 minutes, everything is gone.  The music is what gets me hot since I do not have the cds anymore to upload from.  Any suggestions?
    Thank you!!!

    The backup that iTunes makes does not include music or the apps themselves (it does include app data) and some other things.  If those items are not in the iTunes library of the computer on which you did the update they are gone from the iPod and can't be synced back to the iPod at the end of the update.
    If in the USA and other places with iTunes you can redownload most iTunes purchases by:

  • Extract the new , changed , deleted  vendor  master data -urgent pls

    Hi all,
    I have require ment like i need to extract all new, changed and deleted data from SAP TO MAXIMO
    i need to send to a windows environment which both systems share,
    i am using LFA1 ,CDHDR , CDPOS Tables , i will get the reuired information , can i use gui_download
    to download to windows environment which both system are mapped to a common shared folder.
    i will extract the infrmation and sent to a shared folder.
    this a backround job  schedule daily once.and also i have to sent the file contents to spool also.
    please suggent some code existing or how to do the logic behind.
    shall i use open data set
                    read data set
                    close data set.
    please suggest ways of doing............urgent.
    regards
    kodamanchili

    With regards to the writing out of the data that, you are correct that you should use the Data Set commands if you are attempting to write a file out to the application server.  If you are using any sort of EAI tool then there maybe are other ways specific to the tool for sending data, such as some of the tools utilize RFCs to send the data.
    For the actual identifying of the changed records, it is best not to write delta interfaces directly against the change document tables (CDHDR and CDPOS).  Instead you should be ustilizing change pointers.  Change pointers are transient data stored in the BDCP and BDCPS tables (combiend togehter into view BDCPV) or stored in BDCP2 if configured to use this newer change poitner table for much better performance.
    An instance of a change pointer in the change pointer tables will indicate the record that has changed and point to the changed document in the change document tables that can be referenced to extract more specific information.
    The nice thing about change pointers are:
    - They are transient, at the end of your extract you clear the ones that you've extracted so that the next time you will get the ones that have been pulled since then.
    - You can setup instances of your change pointer object that are specific to an extract program so that two extract programs for similiar or even completly the same data won't itnerfere with each other.
    - The CDHDR and CDPOS tables are great for extracting changes that have occured over time for a specific instance of a buisenss document (ex. Vendor) but do not perform well over time for extracting all changes associated with all instances of a buisness document (ex. All vendors that have had changes since the last run of the program).  Programs that extract directly against CDHDR and CDPOS do perform delta extract functionality are oftern a performance problem as time progresses and the tables grow in size.  If used properly Change Pointers are efficient becuase the tabels can be kept small and are optimized for the extracting of deltas.
    For any tables that log change documents in CDHDR and CDPOS you can configure change pointers to be populated in the BDCP* tables.
    Change pointer configuration:
    - BD61 - Activate change pointers globally within the SAP instance
    - WE81 - Need to create an ALE message type (even if you're not actaully going to connect it to an IDoc)
    - BD50 - Activate change pointer functionality for your message type
    - BD52 - Define the individual change documents, tables and fields that you want to have as part of your tracking
    Your extract program will use two functions:
    - CHANGE_POINTERS_READ - Use this to get a list of all change pointers since the last execution
    - CHANGE_POINTERS_STATUS_WRITE - Use this to mark the change pointers as extracted so that they won't get picked up on the next execution
    Transaction BD22 (Program RBDCPCLR) should be scheduled to run regularily to delete from the change pointer tables the records that have been marked as processesd.
    Note - A common mistake that is made is that the change pointers are read, some filtering is done for specific ones that should be extracted and then only the extracted ones have their change pointer status updated.  It's important to update the status on all of the change pointers because otherwise they'll be picked up again on the next run of the program and will be filtered out again, so over time the number of selected change pointers will keep growing since they will never get purged from the change poitner tables.
    Note that the BDCP and BDCPS tables have a number of performance issues when the selections are done against them due to the way they are joined and the crieteria that is used for selecting.  Becuase of this SAP has implimented a new change pointer table BDCP2 which is a single table as opposed to using a join.  In order to utilize BDCP2:
    - Used SM30 to update V_TBDME.  For your message type turn on the checkbox for BDCP2.
    - Run program RBDCPMIG for your message type, this will migrate existing pointers over to the BDCP2 table.  If you can guarentee that there are no existing pointers then you can use SM30 to update for your message type the target of the pointers as being BDCP2

  • Sync new and deleted Outlook entries -- but not changed entries

    Mate,
    I'm using a basic 8700.  When I sync my Outlook Calendar (with multiple PCs per protocol where I start AND end with my base PC), the new and deleted entries transfer in the sync to mulriple PCs, but entries which I have revised (changed appointment time or text, for example) do not reflect the revisions.  I've doubled-checked all of my preferences, conflict resolution, etc.  It's not a settings issue -- I don't think -- because all new and deleted entries upodate, plus I get a conflict screen if both sides of the operation change the same discreet entry.  I've researched it quite a bit but can't find anything on-point about why all new and deleted entries transfer, but old entries which are altered entries do not get updated.  Certainly, someone out there syncs with more than one PC (desktop and laptop, for example) and has seen this or resolved it...

  • HT5772 The new version/ update is not allowing me to delete purchases movies nor audiobooks.

    I am not able to delete movies nor audiobooks I with the new operating system for the iTunes Store! Also, I have stuff to hide from my kids! How do I put parental controls on my private stuff!

    What happens when you try to delete them ? If the films are downloaded onto your iPad (i.e. you don't have purchases that are only in the cloud showing via Settings > iTunes & App Store > 'show all' fo Videos) then you should be able to delete them via the Edit button at the top right of the film selection screen in the Videos app (and similarly for TV programmes).
    Audiobooks you should be able to delete from the Music app via Settings > General > Usage > Music - swipe across their name from right to left on there and you should get a Delete button. But audiobooks are currently a one-time only download from the store, so do you have copies of them on your computer's iTunes ? If not then File > Devices > Transfer Purchases should copy your iTunes purchases over (films and TV programmes also can't be redownloaded in all countries, and even where they can be there is no guarantee that they will remain in the store).
    For parental controls, you can only use what is in Settings > General > Restrictions e.g. age ratings for films, tv programmes.

  • HT4915 Since downloading the latest iTunes, I am unable to delete songs from my iPhone 4s and songs I have purchased on iTunes are not available on my iPhone 4s. My computer no longer seems to recognise my iPhone or iPad. How do I work the new iTunes plea

    I hate the new iTunes, I can't find anything and can't delete music from my iPhone4S. I can't find my iPhone or iPad when I plug them into my computer and I now have a whole lot of stuff I don't want on my phone. I have relaxation music on my iPad (for work) and other music on my iPhone. The new iTunes has now put everything on my iPhone and I can't get it off. I've disabled Match from my iPad to prevent the wrong music from appearing. Help please someone, I'm going insane.

    In iTunes go to View>Show Sidebar.  This will make it look and behave more like previous versions.  Then connect your phone, click on it's name on the left side, go to the Music tab and make sure you haven't selected Sync your entire library.  You may want to check the songs in your library that you want on your phone, then go to the Summary tab of your iTunes sync settings and select Sync only checked songs and videos, then click Apply at the bottom to sync your phone.  This should transfer only the checked songs and remove the rest.

  • I recently purchased a new macbook and am having trouble syncing my iPhone with the iTunes. It won't allow me to delete any of the music on my phone, so I am unable to make room for the new software upgrade. Does anyone know how to fix this?

    Does anyone know how to enable editing on a new computer? I only have an 8gb phone and over 4gbs of music, half of which I don't even listen to anymore. I really want it off my phone, but when I plugged it into my new macbook nothing would delete. My old computer barely turns on so I can't even plug it into the old one to delete anything. I hit the sync button on the new computer and that didn't help either. I'd really like to upgrade to the new software but don't have the room on my phone until this music/a few apps are deleted. Any help would be appreciated!!

  • I have two podcast folders. I can't delete and redownload the old ones because they are not available any more. How can I get them into the new folder?

    The problem of having 2 'Podcast' folders / menu items after adding a new podcast through clicking on a link in the browser has been addressed on the forums by instructing users to resubscribe to existing podcasts, which then appear in the new folder, and delete the old folder.  This will not work for me as most of the podcasts I listen to are BBC, which vanish from the web 7 days after they were first broadcast (about which much swearing, but that's unalterable).  Consequently I can't adopt this solution.
    I have resubscribed to the podcasts using the link in a browser method, so that they all appear and (in theory) will download new episodes again. However, this leaves the old episodes missing. What must I do to get the episodes downloaded from the old podcasts recognised as belonging to the new subscriptions?

    I found a very fast and easy solution: I selected all the podcasts in the first window, copied them using the command in the Menu>Edit (Command+C did not seem to work). I then pasted them into the new empty folder. All the podcasts already downloaded appeared. The only problem is that some podcasts did not remember which had been viewed or not, while did keep the information. I just had to re-subscribe to the ones I still wanted by clicking on button.
    For some reason, the previous Podcasts folder was only recogized as a list by iTunes, this showed up when I deleted the previous folder (contextual menu). I also had to re-select which ones I wanted synced with my iPad and iPhone.
    (I did make a backup of the Podcasts folder in the Finder, just in case, a bit like voodoo computing)

  • How can i get all of the new music I loaded into iTunes onto my iPod without deleting the content that is already on it?

    I just loaded a bunch of music from my CD library into iTunes in the hopes of loading it onto my iPod. The problem is now I can't figure out how to do it. Two issues... First it says that if I synch it will delete what is already on my iPod which I absolutely do not want. Second, is there a way to load each of the albums without having to create a play list?
    Ugh... Always a frustrating experience trying to deal with iTunes.

    You can only sync your device to one iTunes library at a time. You can either copy the music from the library on your other computer to the one you have loaded the new CDs onto, or you can purchase an external CD Drive and load them to the iTunes library you are currently sync'd with:

    http://store.apple.com/us/search/External-CD-DVD---SuperDrive
    For syncing, I am not familiar with the drag and drop method. I have always used the normal sync process:
    iTunes 12 for Mac: Sync iPod, iPhone, or iPad
    iTunes 12 for Windows: Sync iPod, iPhone, or iPad

  • Why does the new operating system not delete the moved files from their original location - it seems like an enormous waste of space, time and effort to clean up every file once you've moved it

    Why does the new operating system not delete the moved files from their original locations - it seems like an enormous waste of space, time and effort to clean up every file once you've moved it - also, when transferring large amounts of files it becomes a very large problem remembering which files were transferred and which not.

    You're going to need to be more specific, as I'm not quite sure I understand what you're talking about.
    If you're referring to copying from an external hard drive or flash drive, and you want to actually move files rather than copy them, you can hold down the option key to force it to do a "move" rather than a "copy." This is not new behavior, though... the Mac OS has worked this way as long as I can recall (and I've been using it since 1984).
    If you're having a problem with trying to move files from one place to another on a single drive causing them to be copied instead, that is likely because of some permissions issue preventing you from actually being able to move them.

    What is the GarageBand version that your friend is using?
    If it is GarageBand '11, version 6.0.5, you can buy GarageBand '11 as a boxed retail version with the iLIfe '11 bundle, e.g. from Amazon.
    Then you can upgrade GarageBand '11 to 6.0.5, using this upgrader from the Support page:
                     GarageBand 6.0.5
    GarageBand 6.0.5 will work well with your system.  But if your friend is using the newest GarageBand 10, this will not help. Then ask your friend to send you audio files for each track, so you can recreate the project from the audio.  Or your friend could also use GarageBand '11 for the projects you want to share, that will run well in all newer MacOS X versions, even with GarageBand 10.0 installed on the same system.

  • I downloaded the new Firefox for my Mac and it won't open. I deleted the old version. What am I doing wrong?

    I can't get firefox to open now that I erased the old version and tried to install the new version (6.0.2) on my Mac. I was hoping I could update it and have my bookmarks and everything intact, but when I drag the firefox symbol into my dock it won't do anything after downloading. I have put it in the trash to delete it and re-downloaded it, but nothing seems to help. On top of it, the fan on my computer goes on when I am trying to get firefox to work ????
