Bluetooth: An embarrassment to the whole industry

Due to bluetooth problems with the N80 I have now received a whole list of things to check and report back to Nokia's support departement. Some of the information I doubt I can even get my hands on -even if I spent all that time trying.
Now, the problem is actually that something that is being advertised as ONE standard does not work as it should!
I would have thought that after all these years of frustration with stupid bluetooth software and silly COM-port emulation and heaven knows what **bleep** the bluetooth inventors have heaped upon us, things whould finally have been straightened out a bit! But, oh no..
Why don't the bluetooth people get together now and iron out the problems, instead of **bleep** us customers off with endless compatibility problems? More to the point: Why does Nokia seem to have more problems than others? Perhaps Nokia should find out and fix the problem?

I really appreciate your assistance, but my original posting actually was about not having to sift through endless technical details and "incompabilities" just to get a stupid simple wireless wire-replacement technology to work!How come WiFi works so much better? (Rethorical question.)
I have the one and only (=latest) Belkin driver, as verified at Belkins web site.
I have a small GPS receiver which is self-contained, and can't be updated. The idea is that "it just works", which it does except with Nokia.
I don't have troubles with my laptop. PC Suite works OK with the USB cable. It can occasionally work with bluetooth for a couple of minutes.
There is a common denominator here: A Nokia phone.
I have had bluetooh problems before, due to fantastically stupid software that was impossible to comprehend, but that was a few years ago. I really believed bluetooth was sort of sorted, but then along comes Nokia...

Mavericks Issues: Comodo Free-Antivirus Crashing/Freezing the Whole System and Intuos4 Wireless Bluetooth Not Detecting

Hi. Has anyone successfully run Comodo free-anti-virus for the Mac? It crashes, freezes the whole Mavericks that I need to shut the iMac (late 2009) down using the 5 second power button turn off. It would boot and show the desktop and Dock then the beachball just keeps spining and you can't click the Dock nor the icons on the desktop or use the menu.
Also, the bluetooth Wacom4 Wireless used to work fine on Mountain Lion, now Mavericks can't detect it the Intuos4 is in wireless mode (it works fins when the cable's plugged in). Has anyone successfully run the Intuos4 Wireless with Mavericks?
Thank you in advance. Have a great upcoming sunday mass/great upcoming weekend.
God bless.

Just get rid of Comodo. It didn't do very well when I tested it back in January:

As for the Wacom issue, you should probably contact the company to see if they have updated drivers. They're probably not fully compatible with Mavericks, for some reason.

Which Mac Pro? More cores=slower speeds? And most of us know the speed matters or FPU for music and I don't understand the faster is for the least amount of procs. And while I get the whole rendering thing and why it makes sense.

The above is what the bar says. It's been a while and wondered, maybe Apple changed the format for forums. Then got this nice big blank canvas to air my concerns. Went to school for Computer Science, BSEE, even worked at Analog Devices in Newton Massachusetts, where they make something for apple.
The bottom line is fast CPU = more FPU = more headroom and still can't figure out why the more cores= the slower it gets unless it's to get us in to a 6 core then come out with faster cores down the road or a newer Mac that uses the GPU. Also. Few. I'm the guy who said a few years ago Mac has an FCP that looks like iMovie on Steroids. Having said that I called the campus one day to ask them something and while I used to work for Apple, I think she thought I still did as she asked me, "HOW ARE THE 32 CORES/1DYE COMING ALONG? Not wanting to embarrass her I said fine, fine and then hung up. Makes the most sense as I never quite got the 2,6,12 cores when for years everything from memory to CPU's have been, in sets of 2 to the 2nd power. 2,4,8,16,32,64,120,256,512, 1024, 2048,4196,8192, 72,768. Wow. W-O-W and will be using whatever I get with Apollo Quad.
Peace to all and hope someone can point us in THE RIGHT DIRECTION. THANK YOU

Thanks for your reply via email/msg. He wrote:
If you are interested in the actual design data for the Xeon processor, go to the Intel site and the actual CPU part numbers are:
Xeon 4 core - E5.1620v2
Xeon 6 core - E5.1650v2
Xeon 8 core - E5.1680v2
Xeon 12 core - E5.2697v2
I read that the CPU is easy to swap out but am sure something goes wrong at a certain point - even if solderedon they make material to absorb the solder, making your work area VERY clean.
My Question now is this, get an 8 core, then replace with 2 3.7 QUAD CHIPS, what would happen?
I also noticed that the 8 core Mac Pro is 3.0 when in fact they do have a 3.4 8 core chip, so 2 =16? Or if correct, wouldn't you be able to replace a QUAD CHIP WITH THAT? I;M SURE THEY ARE UO TO SOMETHING AS 1) WE HAVE SEEN NO AUDIO FPU OR PERHAPS I SHOULD CHECK OUT PC MAKERS WINDOWS machines for Sisoft Sandra "B-E-N-C-H-M-A-R-K-S" -
SOMETHINGS UP AND AM SURE WE'LL ALL BE PLEASED, AS the mac pro was announced Last year, barely made the December mark, then pushed to January, then February and now April.
Would rather wait and have it done correct than released to early only to have it benchmarked in audio and found to be slower in a few areas- - - the logical part of my brain is wondering what else I would have to swap out as I am sure it would run, and fine for a while, then, poof....
PEACE===AM SURE APPLE WILL BLOW US AWAY - they have to figure out how to increase the power for 150 watts or make the GPU work which in regard to FPU, I thought was NVIDIA?

Since I updated my Mac with iOS 7 I continually have pages open that get pixelated, either the whole page of parts.What can I do to fix the problems?

Are the JayBird Freedom Sprint Bluetooth Headphones good for the iPod air

Are the JayBird Freedom Sprint Bluetooth Headphones good for the iPod air

I have the motorola S9. Works great through the whole house. Listening to them right now as I type. Odd, I can hear the click of the keyboard through the headphones.

HT1430 I drive a 2011 Ford Escape with sync technology. My iphone 4 on the osi 6 would connect through bluetooth and allow me the handsfree access on the steering wheel to run my music. It won't let me change with osi 7

I cannot figure out why the new upgrade osi 7 will not allow me to use the bluetooth control in my 2011 ford escape to be able to change the song on the steering wheel like I could with osi 6. It's making me log into my phone to be able to change it and I don't text and drive so this is defeating the whole purpose of hands free.

you need a firmware update from stero mfg.
Peace, Clyde

InDesign and the Printing industry

Will future InDesign upgrades continue to support the features of preparing documents, brochures, pamphlets, etc., for prepress? I ran across a forum in the "InDesignSecrets" site and there was discussion of InDesign will continue in the direction of "paperless" only. This can't be true. Can you please clear this up? Hopefully I just didn't get the whole story.
We have been using InDesign for all our prepress needs for the last 5 years.
Thank you,
Gloria

InDesign's core user group is the print industry, so that support isn't likely to go away any time soon, but the reality of the world is that more and more of what used to be output to paper is now going to alternate media (look at how many newspapers and magazines have gone out of business lately, or are in financial hot water), and InDesign will continue to expand those capabilities in order to remain competitive.
Add to that the relative maturity of the print workflow and you can expect more in the way of enhancements and improvements of existing features for print than major new capabilities (though if you can think of some major lack, I'm sure the InDesign team would like to hear from you).

How to delete THE WHOLE Reading List of Safari iOS 8 in one shot?

I know how to delete individual items one by one by sliding them to the left, I know how to clear their cache in Settings and I know how to clear Safari's history but nothing clears the whole Reading List in one stroke.
How do you do?
Thank you very much in advance for your answer.

How to disable a single cell in a table (and not the whole column)

Hi there,
I've got a webdynpro table with a few columns, rows can be created dynamically through a button in the table toolbar.
Depending on the value of a certain cell I have to disable another cell (in the same row).
I tried to manipulate the view in the modifyview but no joy. I also tried to manipulate the attribute property through the coding below:
DATA lv_knttp TYPE knttp.
lo_nd_kostl = wd_context->path_get_node( path = `MULTIVALUES.KOSTL` ).
lo_el_kostl = lo_nd_kostl->get_element( ).
lo_el_kostl->set_attribute_property(
attribute_name = 'LTEXT'
property = lo_el_kostl->e_property-enabled
value = ''
but it disables the whole column!!!! I just need the cell to be disabled (I thought the code above, through the lead selection, would affect a certain cell only - but I was wrong).
Any ideas?
Thanks!!!

Hi,
using cell variants you can do this.,
check this article: [Cell Variants in WDA|http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/WDABAP/WebDynproforABAPCellVariants]
Instead of binding the read only property of table as a whole , just bind the read only property of column group of table., You can do this bu drill down the table and select the required column and bind the read only column.,
then In onAction Event of button .,
loop the table, if condition satisfied set the read only property to true else false.,!!
hope this helps u.,
Thanks & regards,
Kiran

I recently managed to get the whole casing of my 13" Macbook Pro (Mid-2009) replaced due to a missing foot and dodgy spacebar. The lid is dented and scratched so would like to know how much it would cost to replace? I know its not covered by AppleCare.

So i took my Macbook Pro 13'' (Mid-2009) into Apple because the spacebar was jammed and I had one of the feet of the bottom casing missing which was unusual (black circles). The unibody and bottom plate had a fair few dents and nicks and under AppleCare I was able to get the whole unibody and bottom case fixed for free. Saved myself a good £181!
This now leaves my lid which has one or two noticeable dents and the bottom right part is suffering from several scratches. I was wondering how much a new lid would cost if I took it into Apple? I know it won't be covered under AppleCare as its accidental damage but want to know whether its worth paying for to have a once again dent free Macbook Pro .
As a side note, do Apple upgrade your hardware at all, such as the hard drive or memory? I know it would be cheaper to do it at an independant computer shop or by myself but would like to explore my options first.

I made a 3-minute movie with my iphone 4S. When I attempt to share it via email or message I get a message that says it is too long, that I should try to make a clip. Of course I had rather send the whole thing. What are the possibilities? I think my music and likely my videos and pictures are in the cloud.

How to populate the whole path of the button in a field when the button is clicked.

Hi,
I have around 5 uploads in my file. I kept a hidden field on the header of the form. When ever i click on the upload button, the path of it needs to be populated in the hidden text field.
by using this.parent we can get the parent name of the element.
is there any method similar to the above one to get the whole path of the button????????

Try putting this script in the click event of the button
Hidden_Text_Field_Path.rawValue=this.somExpression;
This ought to work using either FormCalc or JavaScript. I'm not sure from your description whether you will need to use the full path name for the hidden text field or use a relative one, but that's not too hard to deal with.

How can I export a group email address to a .csv file. I can export the whole address book but it looses the group listings.

I have an address book in Thunderbird and want to export one group listing to a .csv file. I couldn't find a way of exporting one group so exported the whole address book then opened the .csv file and was going to remove the all addresses except the group but the group name was not in the file.
Is it possible to export the group listing.
Thanks
Ron

Open Address Book, select the mailing list in the left pane, then Tools/Export, select csv (comma separated) format, name the file, click Save.
