Blackmail scammer - story, info, tips, and assuran...

well this scam happened to me yesterday. you would think people would learn ha ha, i have seen posts on here date back to 2012 regarding this if even 1 out of 10 people scammed paid the money (i would imagine this number would be higher than just one though) multiplyed but the amount of scams they can execute in 1 day over a 2 and a half year period. these guys will be quite well off.
anyway my story started on a dating website. someone mailed me after liking my profile and what i was kind of taken back because she was very pretty (obviously fake). so after a little conversation she asked for my facebook acount which i stupidly gave her, however the other stories i have read all say that they were added on facebook where as i was not. anyway there was a video call made and it got...lets say fruity lol. after around 5 mins or so the call was ended and a video of myself...being fruity was on screen andi glanced to see that it was getting sent over facebook. i instantly pooped my pants and slammed the laptop closed contemplating my options i went to my mothers laptop and checked. happy days nothing is there. i return to my laptop to find they are still conversing with me.
like i said at the start we were never friends on facebook but this is exactly what was said to me. 
"I just sent your video has (name removed but it was my mother) and I'll send it has all your other friends now, I swear I'll rot you life with this video and do not think that you got me your facebook personal you wrong you I have all your friends list and I am even friends with some of your contacts" as i stay with my mother i then went back to the computer to check and there was nothing there. obviously scare tactic and he probably didnt know we lived in the same house. so this made me think how he actually got the contacts because my facebook is private.
anyway he demanded 2000 euros so i asked him if he was daft that amount of money cant be raised in one day plus it is 10pm here everything is shut. so he very kindy gave me till 9am this morning, it is now 10:45 and i have heard nothing. after watching a youtube video and reading on here i am going to do absolutle nothing about this. as i said before i have read posts on this site dating back to 2012 on this same scam. if the video had been leaked there would be something about it in that period from then to now.
i am also led to believe that if the video is released that is exactly how they would get traced and caught. i really dont think they would ruin a very successful and lucrative scam. the number of people that will instantly pay this will massivly out weigh the people who wont pay.
what i have done is change every password i had, reported the scammer to skype. reported the video to youtube telling them i want it removed as it is being used against mein a blackmail scam and the video was labeld "my name perverse masterbating infront of 8yo child" i tols youtube that is this video surfaced it would undoubtably have severe concequences. i refreshed the page and it was gone. on facebook i have changed my actual name to something different. changed alot of privicy settings to only me. made my friends list available to only me the final thing i am doing right now is making a file of all the screen shots, pictures and everything else and sending it to interpol. i understand telling people to go to your local police station, if they have any their powers to get anythingdone will be very low. as this is an international crime it should be interpol that is notified documenting the information they gave you of where to send the money.
my scammers name is - stephanie.pleint
i hope that this post will put some peoples mind at rest a little. i suppose its still early days yet but i am confident that nothing will come of it.

  • CSS General Tips and Tricks, Please if you can add to this, thanks

    I thought of some general guidelines in CSS and XHTML, please feel free to add some more if you think i missed, thanks in advance !
    No Empty Divs
    Use text-indents in hyperlinks for images and images background so that the  div does not remain empty
    Even if you have a division marker that contains a backgrounds and is  embedding another inner-container (or any other reason), use a  text-indent:-9999px so that it does not appear empty.  This misuse has led to  many misinterpretations by search engines
    Validate your codes on W3C
    Even if there is a warning, there’s always this possibility to wipe it out  and write the right piece of code for it.
    No Ids! Classes & inheritance
    We’re in 2010 now ladies, things have changed and now it’s the new era.  Like  for me, it was quite a bite that day I got those slaps (uhh… let’s call that  e-slaps for the sake of this article) from my boss, who clearly mentioned the  important generic methodologies of using inheritance techniques in everything we  do… And that included CSS my oh my..
    Besides, even if you are using ids, make sure that they are unique and that  they are not being duplicated elsewhere on your page.  That’s the good thing  with the W3C validator: it doesn’t miss those
    Comment your lines of codes
    There are many advantages for this, the major one I’m considering is to help  situate the programmer in line who will be taking your codes elsewhere.  It’s a  form of diplomacy, hence good practice.
    No Styling in your html pages: out!
    It’s better to transfer all the related style, with comments alongside on  your generic style sheet
    Insert Images on web pages only if necessary
    Whenever there is an opportunity not to insert an image as an <img  src>, do it; the best practice is to load it as a background image and if  possible use write any text that’s ever found on the image instead of importing  the image from photoshop or any app you’re using down to tyou
    Anti-aliasing of gif images for better image  quality
    I have this luck of having a chief who knows quite a sleek stuffs in  photoshop and image rendering techniques and that includes gif images.
    Integrators love gifs: light, minimal use of colors.. when they’res no  curves in any way, but what about transparency ?
    There are possibilities to avoid the use of pngs, which are usually heavier  and take quite some time to load.  Sometimes when gifs are being exported, codes  or designers forget the background image on which the gif will be laid onto.   That is why anti-aliasing techniques are very important for keeping the design  intact.
    use overflow: hidden instead of clear:both
    More information can be found on this link:
    http://www.quirksmode.org/css/clearing.html
    To brief a bit, using clear is like ol’ school teaching stuff which was the  fast-driven solution while the overflow:hidden seems to satisfy the major  browsers like MSIE, FFx , Chrome, etc…
    Minimise the use of style sheets
    Avoid using different style sheets for different browsers. Use one generic  style sheet,  unless you have different themes for different pages, but that  depends.   All this creates confusion and that might also mean you are not be  using the right html codes and the right css styles
    To minimise the use of multiple style sheets, use:
    i.e. <!–[if IE  6]><div id=”IE6″><![endif]–>
    Validate your css codes on  http://jigsaw.w3.org
    Jigsaw is the CSS passport for integrators.  I never knew it, but now O I  know !
    It’s the haven.  The hide in our line of business.  It’s what keeps our ego  hmmm strong and heavily proud, the reason why integrators are so needed in the  web business.
    * Squeak *
    Always have this final habit to validate your css in the following  link
    http://jigsaw.w3.org/ to make sure that you are in line with your css  standards.  Even if there are warnings, that would mean you are wrongly  interpreting your css codes or that some styles have been duplicated here and  there.
    Conclusion
    That’s all for now folks.  I think , whenever I’ll have some more time, I’d  probably create a CSS tips and tricks Part 2, cos amending what’s already there  would sound so cheap and it’s not like facebook, uhh Sheran changed that  article, etc..
    It’s good to have some feedbacks and all, well, that’s probably interesting  to know what’s out in the CSS jungle, so jot in some lines, criticise, be blunt  and bold and don’t hesitate to contact me (except ma okes at work, you know who  you are, ladies) for any info ya need
    À La Prochaine !

    use CSS, it will save you time no matter how much DW does things automatically for you
    if you don't know how it's done, ask or view source. css is client side code and can be viewed.
    use divs instead of tables for layouts
    firefox has a great plugin called HTML Validator (http://users.skynet.be/mgueury/mozilla/). you don't have to keep going to the w3c website to validate. when viewing your page within firefox it will validate it and tell you any errors and warnings. saves me a lot of time. it's also great if you're development environment is behind a firewall - you won't have to view source, copy & paste onto w3c validator. they don't have support for html5 yet
    this could be more of style and preference but i use multiple files of css. usually 2 or 3. one is for the layout (layout.css), one is for forms (form.css) and one for display data. anything more can become more work when it's time to make any changes, especially with multiple people working on the same project
    create a standard workflow. naming conventions for file names, class names, etc.
    i'm not sure you can get away from those IE specific css. i've tried a campaign at work to not support IE so that we become fully compliant with the web but unfortunately, IE still has a lot of users. what we've done is support IE but the latest versions only. M$ is at least getting better with being compatible.
    view the page in firefox and IE. if they work, then you should be fine with the other browsers. as a developer, it's my responsibility to ensure that any user whether mac or pc can view the website - as long as they are running the "latest" version of the browser. latest as in what the software developer still supports.
    well that's my tips, tricks and a little pet peeve here and there

  • [INFO TIPS] How to survive with Ovi Maps 3.0 insta...

    Quick info tips. I wanna made this post earlier but I was on few days trip so didn't have a chance... but it's good coz I was tested GPS in real touristic environment.
    I'm from Europe so I don't know how all links posted below will be works for people outside Europe. 
    My hardware: E63 with latest firmware + external GPS module LD-4W
    Everything what we do here, we do with phone connected to the PC via USB cable in PC Suite mode and with fully battery charged.
    If you have Maps 2.0, everything works well for you and you payed for any of licences - better stay with that version and don't touch Ovi Maps 3.0. Waste of time and nerves. 
    1. Please make phone data backup in PC Suite. Please make data backup of your memory card.
    2. Check if you have firmware upgrade for your phone (click on some icon in PC Suite). But if you have cracked Symbian and you using cracked software better stay away from firmware upgrade. There's new cracking method for newest firmwares, ask Google. I don't use it, I'm clean. If you have new firmware - update the phone.
    3. Download MapLoader - http://europe.nokia.com/explore-services/maps/down​load-maps/map-loader Do fresh install or update old MapLoader
    4. Bluetooth MUST BE turn in phone. Why? Ask Nokia. -_- Just kidding but unfortunately it's not funny. Without Bluetooth Ovi Maps 3.0 installed in next step (6.) is crazy as hell. Application is completly unusable, skipping, switching... one big hell on the screen. I don't know how it looks like in phones with build in GPS module.   
    5. Download Ovi Maps 3.0 - http://europe.nokia.com/explore-services/maps/down​load-maps and update with this installer old Maps 2.0 in the phone.
    6. Run Ovi Maps 3.0 and allow to download via Internet connection in your phone (wifi, gsm, 3g) some portion of initial data - 300 or 400kB - something like that, up to 1MB maximum then disconnect from Internet. It's needed to save some file (I don't remember name) and make structure of catalogues on memory card.
    7. Leave Ovi Maps 3.0 and run MapLoader. This application is one big pain in **bleep**. Sometimes doesn't see your phone, sometimes doesn't recognize correctly your memory card size (when you are finished downloading your map/s data that stupid soft can say to you "you don't have" or something like that)... horrible! If something goes wrong - try restart your PC and phone then connect again via USB cable - still in PC Suite mode.
    8. When luckily you have maps on your phone, try to pair your phone with your GPS module via Bluetooth or turn on build in module in other models (I think it works like that?).
    9. When you will be look out for licence for walk navigation... you cannot find it. You can see only your region name (in my case it was Europe) and you have an option to buy... licenses for drivers. ROTFL!  Licence for walk navigation is "hidden option". You must go here - http://europe.nokia.com/get-support-and-software/p​roduct-support/maps-support/how-to/how-to--use-map​... - it's mini FAQ how to obtain it.
    What I see, there's NO MORE free trial licenses in Maps v3.0 You must pay from day one. I buyed that licence for walk navigation for 10,12E (10 euro 12 euro cents) and it's not time restricted - looks like lifetime, ofc for the phone that you use (I think). Other licenses (for drivers) are time restricted (30 days and up as I remember).
    Everything works fine for me. I was over 220km away from my hometown in awesome town Wrocław and Ovi Maps 3.0 helps me A LOT with navigation and searching for monuments in this town.
    Marcin
    NOKIA IN USE: N8

    Ad. 1) "...Please make data backup of your memory card."
    Because maybe you must be format memory card for proper maps installation (instead upgrade from Ovi Maps 3.0 installation level old installed maps from v2.0).

  • Can anyone recommend tips and best practices for FrameMaker-to-RoboHelp migration ?

    Hi. I'm planning a migration from FM (unstructured) to RH. I'd appreciate any tips and best practices for the migration process. (Note that at the moment I plan to import the FM documents into, not link to them from, RH.)
    For example, my current FM files are presently not optimally "chunked", so that autoconverting FM file sections (based on, say, Header 1 paragraph layout) won't always result in an optimal topic set. I'm thinking of going through the FM docs and inserting dummy paragraphs with a tag somethike like "topic_break", placed in more appropriate locations that the existing headers. Then, during import to RH, I'd use the topic_break paragraph to demark the topics. Is this a good technique? Beyond paragraph-based import delineation, do you know of any guidelines for redrafting FM chapter file content into RH topics?
    Also, are there any considerations/gotchas in the areas of text review workflow, multiple authoring, etc. after the migration? (I've not managed an ongoing RH doc project before, so any advice would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks in advance!
    -Kurt
    BTW, the main reason for the migration: Info is presently scattered in various (and way to many) PDF files. There's no global index. I'd like to make a RoboHelp HTML interface (probably WebHelp layout) so it can be a one-stop documentation shop for users.

    Jeff
    Fm may produce better output for your requirements but for many what Rh produces works just fine. My recent finding re Word converting images to JPG before import will mean a better experience for many.
    Once Rh is set up, and it's not difficult, for many its printed documents will do the job. I would say try it and then judge.

  • Recording Graduations, creative tips, and advice

    Recording Graduations, creative tips, and advice. Can someone direct me to some where I can find real creative graduation footage tips and advice. I have a proposal to make to a school and I do not want it to look like a traditional recording for a graduation

    visit the school newspaper people and school student organizations and clubs etc ( including sports, drama, music, chess club, science labs, computer IT, all the departments in school.... )
    Get samples of news articles ( you can scan headlines and stories and use in your film ) and photos and information about graduates ....
    pick out a few that show promise of telling " story" about how the school and community of students ( neighborhood , students as a whole group ) helped one another over the years to get to the graduation...and have fun with it...have some funny stuff as well as some serious "promises" the future holds for students...
    highlight those few stories among the general "story" of how great it is to get to that point of graduation and moving on...
    shoot the ceremonies and so on, and then add your "story" elements in post with some music ( maybe local music from graduates in bands )

  • Are clean my mac and mackeeper legit? i am nervous as i got caught with mac defender. both of these programs i found on my mac tips and tricks app on dashboard and thought they would be approved. not sure and don't want to go ahead and use the samples etc

    are clean my mac and mac keeper legit? i am nervous as i got caught in the macdefender scheme but these two i found on the mac tips and tricks app on dashboard so downloaded them but haven't used them yet. just don't want or need another mac defender hassle. thanks for any and all info in advance

    once again thanks for more info. what i am still not clear on is if i haven't installed mackeeper can i just drag the icon of the open box [in one case] and the mackeeper icon in my app folder. i somehow downloaded two copies of mackeeper. clicked on one and it was put into my app folder. then i decided to use it and clicked on it and it started asking for email address and stuff. while i put an address in i didn't finish installing or hitting the button that would have probably got it completely installed.
    checked the email address i gave it and no notice from them that i had completed the install or any other info. makes me hope it is still un installed.
    given the givens should i use the apple help writer "how to uninstall mackeeper" on one or both of them or just hope that dragging them to the trash will suffice?
    one of the many great things about apple is this support communities and folks like you and paul. have been rescued from my stupidity by others and you guys. thanks again

  • Advanced APEX Tips and Techniques (tool tip, VCF), queries...

    Hi everyone,
    First of all, I would like to thank the community for their help.
    I have been working with APEX since a few months (December) ago, since then it has captivated most of my attention, because of what can be done with it…
    This time I would like to ask for your advice about some new topics (tool tip and VCF or saving contacts) in regard to APEX, I created a calendar application –works as it meant to be- but now got some question to which I have not yet found an answer, (I have already looked on some online info).
    1). Regarding to tool tip: as I mentioned before I have created a calendar application, and on it I am linking the events (specifically on calendar region) on it to some other pages, in the link that leads to the page I have put this:
    select '<a title="TGB SCHEDUL" href="f?p=&APP_ID.:5:' || :APP_SESSION || '::::P5_ID: ' || ID || '">' || EVENT_NAME|| '</a>
    ' EVENT_NAME, START_DATE
    from APP_TGB
    This script does what it is meant to do link to a specific page. As I understand tool tip, if I want some message I have to place the comments on the title=''#COMMENTS#'' as I am using mozilla, as you can see I have a phrase and I would like to adjust it to every event in particular, I thought in using bind variables, so I look in google about how to create it, found how to... but no where to apply.
    2). In concern to the VCF, I saw an example and tried to adjust it to my needs, but apparently I have done something inappropriate.
    DECLARE CURSOR member_cur IS
    SELECT id, quarter_fy08, kind_of_campaign, event_name, owner, partner, associationcollaboration, location, presales, marketing, chanel_manager, territory_manager, start_date, end_date, list, emailing, telemk, status, source_code_omo, attendees, leads, opps, budget, pipe_estimado, objetives, comments
    FROM app_tgb
    WHERE id = (
    SELECT ' f?p=&APP_ID.:5: '||:APP_SESSION||'::::P5_id: '||id||' '
    FROM APP_TGB
    BEGIN
    htp.init; -- wipe out the buffer
    owa_util.MIME_HEADER('text/x-vcard; method=request');
    for member_rec in member_cur loop
    --Get the member information
    htp.print('BEGIN:VCARD');
    htp.print('VERSION:3.0');
    htp.print('Event Details:');

    htp.print('END:VCARD');
    end loop;
    END;
    3). Referring to user groups, I have read on chapter 8, that creating groups I will be able to restrict access to various parts of an application, so I did create them and applied them but once again something happens.
    Re: authorization scheme methods/techniques
    What I am trying to do with the users, is to restrict their access to specific pages, so for example let's say that I do have these pages.
    Start, calendar, insertion, update and report, on the start page I have a link to the insertion page, that I want it to be accessed just by those users who have some privileges (which I understand can be done with groups, to manage who can access to a page and who can not.), and to allow other user to go around to the allowed areas.
    I do appreciate any kind of help or guidance.
    Best regards,

    ABOUT VCF IN APEX
    Hi everyone,
    This time I will like to ask you for some advise in regard to VCF, the picture is this.
    VCF in theory is working and on practice is working more or less… I say more or less because of this…
    This is a small idea of my application.
    I have a test application on APEX that is a calendar to insert data, on the page where I do have the calendar I have some hyperlinks for insertion and for viewing the reports, and on the calendar itself I do have a link for updating the event.
    I have assigned the VCF file to the updating page (page that is linked from the calendar) and bring in the values that are meant to be, in theory it should create the VCF file well but it does not.
    The only way it does create the VCF file is when I insert a new registry, click insert and then on the status bar of the browser (in my case mozilla firefox) hit the back button, then the VCF file is created as it’s meant to be.
    I will appreciate if anyone can give me a hint, a suggestion, anything :)
    I will attach the code I use for the VCF file.
    declare
    cursor user_cur is
    select ID, OWNER
    from APP_TGB
    where ID = :p2_ID;
    l_ID number;
    l_OWNER varchar2(60);
    begin
    htp.init; -- Wipe out the buffer
    owa_util.MIME_HEADER('text/calendar; method=request');
    -- Get the event information
    htp.print('BEGIN:VCALENDAR');
    htp.print('PRODID:-//Microsoft Corporation//Outlook 9.0 MIMEDIR//EN');
    htp.print('VERSION:2.0');
    htp.print('METHOD:PUBLISH');
    htp.print('BEGIN:VEVENT');
    htp.print('ORGANIZER:MAILTO: [email protected]');
    htp.print('LOCATION: Application ' || :APP_ID);
    htp.print('TRANSP:OPAQUE');
    htp.print('SEQUENCE:0');
    htp.print('Today is: ' || to_char(sysdate, 'yyyy-mm-dd') || ' ' || to_char(sysdate, 'hh24:mi:ss'));
    htp.print('OWNER: (' || nvl(v('P2_OWNER'),l_OWNER) || ') ');
    htp.print('PRIORITY:5');
    htp.print('CLASS:PUBLIC');
    htp.print('BEGIN:VALARM');
    htp.print('TRIGGER:PT60M');
    htp.print('ACTION:DISPLAY');
    htp.print('DESCRIPTION:Reminder for account expiring');
    htp.print('END:VALARM');
    htp.print('END:VEVENT');
    htp.print('END:VCALENDAR');
    end;
    The distribution of my pages is the following:
    1. pag_inicio, the form of referring to it is p1_”any-atribute”… on this page there are the hyperlinks (insertion and report viewing) and the calendar itself.
    2. pag_insertion, the form of referring to it is p2_”any-atribute”… on this page there are the insertion fields and a VCF button, create and cancel ones.
    3. pag_update, the form of referring to it is p3_”any-atribute”… on this page there are the fields where the information is brought up, and a VCF, update and cancel buttons.
    4. pag_report, the form of referring to it is p4_”any-atribute”… on this page you can see the fields in a report format.
    5. checking_events, the form of referring to it is p5_”any-atribute”… this page is like the updating one, but with letting the user modify any value, it has a VCF.
    6. pag_VCF, where the VCF code is.
    I do appreciate your help and guidance.
    Best regards,

  • Regarding Info cube and DSO

    Hi,
    Generally reporting will be done on Info Cube rather than DSO.
    Suppose If we assign the same data source to Info Cube and DSO then both contains the same data.
    Info cube have additive and aggregated functionality where DSO have the overwrite functionality .
    Are we using cube for this functionality only ?
    What about the Dimensions in Cube how they differ from data fields and key fields in DSO when we are developing same Bex Report on both ?
    Please advice me .
    Thanks in advance.
    Thanks & Regards,
    Ramnaresh.p

    It is hard to compare Cube and DSO.
    Both thier own usage.
    1. InfoCube is always additive, while DSO supports overwrite functionality.
    2. In InfoCube, combination of all the characteristic value is a Key in the Fact Table, while in ODS, you can specify your own Key Fields based on which you want to generate unique record in the DSO.
    3. DSO supports many delta modes like D, R, N, X, after image, before image, while cube does not support all the modes. You can not delete the record based on the key from the cube by just loading the data. While DSO automaitcally deletes the record from active table and generates the reverse entry for Cube.
    4. DSO is a flat structure and therefore, it is used to store information at detail level, while cube is used to store information at aggregated level.
    So both the structures are very much different from each other. One can replace other at some places, but both the objects have thier own functionality.

  • I want to write for firefox tips and tricks. What can I do?!

    I found some of basic Firefox tricks that I think very few knows about it!

    Hello Hossmf, see already known [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/products/firefox/tips tips and tricks]
    and : http://www.tweakguides.com/Firefox_1.html

  • Office 2013 APP-V Tips and Tricks

    Hi there, 
    I got Office 2013 working with APP-V 5.0 Sp2 and rolling it out globally. 
    Out of the box nothing goes wrong, but i'm testing a lot and whenever I unpublish and do not delete the old programdata directory my computers go nuts. 
    Does anyone have any tips and tricks for troubleshooting the Office 2013 APP-V Package? 
    For Example I unpublished the Office 2013 APP-V package because I needed to update it with a connection group and add an excel plugin. After I updated the excel plugin and connection group, the connection group was configured succesfully. Whenever I try
    to open Office 2013 on a already used account it won't start without an error message. 
    When I log in as as different user everything goes fine. 
    However everything i'm trying to fix this for a particular user on the computer fails. 
    Manually removing the packages gives an error. Something with a rollback error. Really strange. 
    Does anyone have tips and tricks on rolling out App-v and publishing/unpublishing the application and modifying application connection groups. 
    This is driving me bananas because we have a dynamic changing environment. Out of the box it works fine but don't try to change anything because the computer goes nuts. 

    So I found out this value:     <Wait RollbackOnError="true" Timeout="30"/>
    So if I perform the remove-appvclientpackage command I guess it sticks on this because something in the script goes wrong but how do I found
    out what goes wrong? 

  • Must-know BlackBerry Z10 and BlackBerry 10 tips and tricks

    Check out the following must-know BlackBerry Z10 and BlackBerry 10 tips and tricks to get the most out of your new BlackBerry 10 smartphone.
    1) BlackBerry 10's Built-In Screen Shot Feature
    Capturing a screen shot on a BlackBerry 10 device is simple. Just hold both the volume up and volume down keys simultaneously for a couple of seconds until you hear a shutter sound. Screen shots are saved to your BlackBerry 10 camera gallery.
    2) Volume Up/Down Keys as Media Controls
    You can use your BlackBerry 10 device's volume up and volume down keys to skip through songs in your music librery. To enable this feature, open your BlackBerry 10 Settings by dragging down from the top of your display while on your Active Frames screen or a home screen panel. Choose Settings from the dropdown menu and click System Volume. On the following page, slide the Music Shortcuts button to the On position.
    3) Volume Up/Down Keys and the BlackBerry 10 Camera
    You simply tap your BlackBerry Z10's display with the camera or video camera open to snap an image or start recording a video clip. But it's sometimes easier to use the volume keys. Just tap the volume up or volume down keys with the camera open to snap and image. And you can also use these keys to start and stop video capture when your camera's video mode is enabled.
    4) Instantly Launch Voice Control
    The BlackBerry Z10 can initiate lots of different actions based on voice commands thanks to its Voice Control app. And you can instantly launch Voice Control by holding your device's mute key for a couple of seconds.
    5) Launch BlackBerry Camera from Lock Screen
    BlackBerry 10 lets you quickly launch your camera application from its lock screen, a feature that can be valuable when you want to take spur-of-the-moment shots. A camera icon appears in the bottom-right corner of the locked display screen, and you can hold it for a couple of seconds to launch the camera app.
    6) Advanced BlackBerry Hub Inbox Controls
    The BlackBerry Hub is the central inbox for all of you various BlackBerry 10 application notifications and messages. You can access basic Hub controls by clicking the Menu key at the bottom right of your Hub screen. (The Menu key looks like three dots stacked on top of each other.) But you can also access some advanced BlackBerry Hub controls from the date bars that appear in the inbox stream at the start of each new day.
    Just hold a finger on a date bar to bring up controls that let you skip to the start of the past day, the start of the next day, jump to the top of the BlackBerry Hub, jump to the bottom of your BlackBerry Hub or mark all prior messages as read.
    7) Speedy BlackBerry 10 Navigation
    The BlackBerry 10 OS can be broken down into three main components: The BlackBerry Hub; the Active Frames screen; and your application panels. You can do navigation through these components using a basic set of swipes and gestures. But you can also use the tiny slider tray that appears at the bottom of the Active Frames screen and all of your home panels. Just tap a specific panel in the slide to navigate directly to that panel without scrolling. Touch the Active Frames square, which is composed of four smaller squares, to jump directly to your active apps page. Or tap the Hub button, which looks like three horizontal lines on top of each other, to navigate right to the Hub.
    8) See Your Battery Life Status as a Percentage
    The BlackBerry 10 OS does not currently allow you to set your battery-status indicator to show a specific percentage, only a battery icon. But you can check your device's hardware settings for a more specific battery status. Just open your device's Settings by sliding down from the top of your Active Frames or application-panel screen and choose Settings from the dropdown menu. Then click About. On the following screen, change the Category menu from General to Hardware. You'll see a battery percentage listed in the Hardware information.
    9) BlackBerry 10 Boot Status as a Percentage
    Whenever you restart or power up your BlackBerry 10 devices, a BlackBerry logo appears with a status bar that encircles it. The status bar shows you start-up progress, but you can also view that progress as a percentage number. Just hold your finger anywhere on the BlackBerry logo and a progress percentage appears.
    10) BlackBerry Z10 Keyboard Tips, Tricks and Shortcuts
    You can type special characters using the BlackBerry 10 virtual keyboard by holding your finger on top of a letter with associated special characters (e, a, i, o, u, y, etc.), and then sliding your finger over to the character of your choice.
    Quickly sliding your finger downward from the top of your keyboard to its bottom cycles through the number and character screens so you don't have to tap the number/character screens button, which can slow down typing.
    And you can delete an entire word instead of just individual letters by swiping leftward from the backspace key toward the center of your keyboard.

  • Material Group in the Info Record and PO

    We have the scenario of an info record that is "standard" and "sub-contracting".  When you display the info record for either category using ME13, it has the value for material group in the general data screen.  Technical Assistance tells me this value is found in EINA-MATKL.  However, when I do an extract for the info record from EINA, the field is blank.
    My two info records (standard and sub-contracting) in EINE were created differently.  The standard one was created using ME11 and a plant was entered.  Because a plant was entered, the material group value was not required.  The sub-contracting info record was automatically created when the PO was created (InfoUpdate button is on).  In the PO, the material group was also entered; however, a plant was not added to the info record because we do not have EVO set up to include the plant when the info record is automatically created.  (This is something I can change).
    This is very confusing when we are looking at these info records and it appears data should be there but it is not.  This most noticeably happens with the ones that are getting created automatically and then a different category is created using ME11. Are we are missing some addl requirements in configuration when these records are being created automatically????
    Can someone please explain????  I need to come up with a solution to this problem.

    If you want to enter diff ordre unit than in the PIR
    In this case in the material master purchasing screen you have to activate the var order unit
    enter 2 here
    now go to your info record and on general data screen you will see the field var ordre unit
    here enter 2
    than click on conditon from menu
    system will popup the order unit screen
    here keep cursor on box and click choose
    now it will allow you to maintain the box price also
    once you do this than it will automatically defult in the Po upon selection.

  • How to make the price in PO to adopt from info-record and not changeable?

    Hi Xperts,
    Can somebody explain to me how to set the PO price to be adopted from the info-record and is NOT CHANGEABLE at the creation and change of PO screen. I know that i can configure the field selection for the PO type to be "price as display" only. Any other solution?
    Thanks.

    Hi!
    tick the check box info-update at the item detail under master data tab in a PO.
    its significance is as follows:-
    Info record update
        Determines whether the prices and conditions of this purchase order item
        are suggested in future PO items.
    Use
        Selecting InfoUpdate causes one of the following situations to occur:
            -   If just one info record (with or without plant) exists, it is
                updated.
            -   If no info record exists and "plant condition requirement" was
                specified in Customizing, an info record with plant is created.
                Otherwise, an info record without plant is created.
            -   If two info records exist (that is, one info record with plant
                and one without plant) the info record with plant is updated.
    Dependencies
         You can specify that prices and conditions in purchasing info records
         are only allowed at plant level in the Purchasing IMG, under Conditions
         -> Define Condition Control at Plant Level.
    Hope this helps you,
    Regards,
    Archit.
