Broadband failure in the heat

My broadband has failed mid to late afternoon on 6 occasions since 15 July. Each time I have spoken with the very polite helpdesk who have elevated the issue through level 1 to level 2. However, this has involved 1 hour on the phone and then a 24-48 hour wait for an engineer who informs me that the problem is with the local exchange - no fault found on my line. I have written to the Customer Service Director in Durham, but no reply. In the meantime I am sent glossy literature telling me that 'I'm important' and that I should take advantage of BT Sports and Infinity. Problem is BT has not invested any money in the local exchange and Infinity remains unobtainable.
My frustration is that there is a very friendly remote helpdesk who follow a set protocol - level 1, level 2, engineer - but above this sits a anonymous (un-contactable) and detached level of management. As a result, time is lost and money expended on nugatory engineer visits.
Can anyone give me the name and address of someone who I can discuss this issue with please? Many thanks

Intermittent Broadband Failure

I have BT Home Hub 2, worked fine for the last couple of years. Recently started to get intermittent Broadband failure, sometimes twice a day, sometimes twice a week.
When it fails the 'phone light' flashes orange, the rest of the lights are steady blue. At this time the BB phone is dead, the main phone line is OK. After some minutes it comes back OK, reset also seems to fix it.
Anyone any ideas?
Thanks

Are you sure it's the phone light that goes orange ?
I'm in the same boat. HH2 was ok(ish) for a while then started to drop out, just for a couple of seconds at a time. On mine, the BraodBand light goes Orange.
I've had new cable and new main connection box (with built in filter), but to no avail.
If yours is like mine, BT will have a log of the outages. The engineer that visited me called the appropriate office when he was here. I like that idea, as you sometimes get the impression that BT / Engineers etc don't always believe what you say.
Mine still does it, in fact it dropped out for 3 hours the other day, but I think that was a separate issue.
You will see lots of other people on these pages with the same problem. I don't know what causes it,,,,,, and apparently, neither do BT,,,, or it would be fixed.
Good Luck

The lcd screen of my 15-inch Macbook Pro (mid 2009) is separating from the case. The glue failed due to the heat. How can I get Apple to fix this factory flaw?

The heat vented from the back of the laptop caused the glue to fail and now the screen is separating from back of the lcd case near the hinges. I know for a fact that this issue is known by Apple as I have seen the issue reported at least a dozen times. This laptop was considerably more expensive than any comparable laptop at the time I bought it. I bought it believing that I was buying a quality product from a quality company. I've owned many laptops and I have never seen anything like this. My laptop is out of warranty but this is really besides the point. This is clearly a factory defect that Apple should remedy. What do I need to do to get Apple to fix this design flaw?

Ask Apple.
We're just regular users here, nobody from the company shows up except for the invisible moderator who purges your posts, threads or self. And if any employee is around, the lawyers probably prevent them from identifying themselves.

HT1212 my ipod screen is cracked and i can't sync my ipod on to itunes becauseit it is locked with a password and i can't enter the password because the heat sensor is messed up and i don't want t restore it and lose everything so how can i get passed tha

My ipod screen is cracked and i can't sync my ipod to itunes because it is locked with a password and i can't enter the password because the heat sensor is messed up on the ipod becasue of the screen and i don't want to restore it and lose everything. What can i do?!

All you can do is to restore and thus erase the iPod unless you can get a data recovery company to preserve the data.
Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings

Is it possible to do something about the heat generation of the phone when using 3G? I would like to know if the new iOS is going to deal with that issue.

It is a disapointing regarding the heating issue when using the 3G

Instead of steaming you can just download directly from the cloud. Don't you see the cloud icon with a downward arrow? You may have already downloaded then then. Turn off iTM and see if the songs are still present.

Hi,
What is the status of those concurrent requests (Completed with Warning or with Error)?
1) Do we need to delete any temporary files from server related to printer.Usually, you do not need to delete any files manually, temp files will be created by the application, and there should no issues with the files permissions (unless you have some other instance running on the same node with different applmgr user). However, you can safely clean (.t and .tmp) files as per the following documents.
Note: 435437.1 - Most Common Solutions to FRM-41839 and .tmp Files Not Being Deleted
Note: 145487.1 - Files Types .t and .temp and .tmp, are Saving Under /var/tmp
Note: 162232.1 - Why Does Oracle Forms Create .TMP Files Which Fill Up The Filesystem e.g. /tmp ?
I would also suggest you search Metalink for APP-FND-00500 and you will get many hits, go through the documents and see if it helps.

HT4972 Has anyone had issues with failure of the music player to launch after updating to OS5? My Gen 3 will no longer play music!

Has anyone had issues with failure of the music player to launch after updating to OS5? My Gen 3 will no longer play music!

I think a few have.
Try the standard fixes:
- Reset. Nothing is lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory defaults/new iPod.

HP LaserJet M1212nf MFP Printer - Communication Failure with the scanner

Dear all,
May I kindly ask if there are any known resolutions in terms of a scanning issue with the HP LaserJet M1212nf MFP Printer?
When it starts scanning the printer only scans the up to the 3rd or 4th page, it stops in the middle of the sheet and produces an error message stating the following: Communication Failure with the scanner.
Are there any steps that may be followed in order to resolve the incident?
Many thanks in advance.
Best regards,
Ryan

Hi @Ryan_HP ,
I see that you are experiencing a communication error during scanning of multiple pages. I would like to help, but I will need some more information to provide you with the correct steps to resolve this issue.
If you are using Windows, download and run the Print and Scan Doctor. It will diagnose the issue and might automatically resolve it. Find and fix common printer problems using HP diagnostic tools for Windows?
Temporarily turn off any Antivirus Software, just to rule out any interference.
Try scanning again.
What operating system are you using?
How to Find the Windows Edition and Version on Your Computer.
Mac OS X: How Do I Find Which Mac OS X Version Is on My Computer?
How is the printer connected? (USB/Ethernet)
What were the results when you ran the Print and Scan Doctor? (did it print or scan, any error messages)
What scanning software are you using?
Have a wonderful day!
Thank You.

End of my Tether with Broadband fault at the excha...

Evening All,
I've reached the end of the line it seems with BT technical support and Im now heading for a deadlock situation. Heres a bit of background from the past 7 weeks or so to try and outline the problem I've got, whether it inspires any suggestions from the community as to how to proceed or potentially makes others aware of the tragic failings of this massive organisation in the semi rural areas across the country.
Had a new line installed as part of home move order which was placed 3 weeks in advance of our move. The engineer attended on the 31st July 2013 to install our phone line. We had a new line from the telegraph pole in the street wired directly to a newly installed socket in our living room. This is the only socket in the house. Unfortunately, the phone line did not work for calls, and I had to raise a fault with BT immediately. By the 5th August we had a working phoneline after finding several faults on what was a newly installed and tested line. Good work engineer #1. I then phoned BT back to say I wanted the broadband component of the homemove order fulfilling. I was told that I would need to phone again to get this once the phone line was installed as they couldnt raise the broadband order against a line which didnt yet exist. I found this slightly frustrating but liveable as I was told it would only be 48 hours from placing the order to having the service activated.
I phoned BT again on the 9th because my broadband had still not been activated. I was told the order had an error and had not been placed. My order was then expedited and filled on the 10th to activate my services. By this point I thought “great” as it seemed the ordeal was over.
Once the connection was enabled, I noticed the speed was very slow to use. My homehub indicated a sync speed to the exchange of 8mbit downstream and 0.45mbit upstream. After the first 3 days had passed and the line training should have been complete I ran the BT wholesale speed test to reveal my line had a 2mbit profile assigned to it. I phoned BT again who informed me of the problem and offered to reset the IP profile which would then lead up to the full line potential within another few days. For a period of 3-4 days this produced results at a maximum of about 6.5mbit, even though my sync speed to the exchange still showed 8mbit downstream. At this point it seemed to be resolved as much as it would so I considered closing the fault out. The same evening I noticed the speeds started degrading, to the point where the connection was completely unusable (a few kbit). I could not even ping a basic site.
I phoned BT again and they offered to send an engineer once I had convinced them of my competence to plug a router, microfilter and phone into the only socket in the house. The engineer turned up, completed the checks within the property and found the line to be fine in terms of noise/gain/etc etc. He surmised that the problem was within the exchange and bounced the issue back to wholesale. I was not informed of the results and BT helpfully offered to close out the fault because no fault was found. This is even though my connection was still fully useless.
I then phoned BT several more times going through the same infuriating conversations. Another engineer was produced. He did the same again.
We then repeat this same process a few more times. Sometimes the connection worked between engineer visits, sometimes it did not. However the same fault emerges over the course of a couple of days and we start the loop again.
I am now in the lap of the UK based resolutions team in Newcastle. However, they are not getting anywhere with BT wholesale who are still not recognising and resolving the exchange based fault. The really frustrating thing is that this is not just affecting myself. There are at least 7 other customers in the same exchange complaining of the same fault. BT have not recognised these may all be related and have been sending engineers out the tackle the individual problems of us incompetent customers setting up our routers incorrectly. However this is now turning out not to be the problem, and it is in fact the exchange. But BT broadband aren't getting anywhere with wholesale who seem to be refusing/unwilling/incapable to accept that the fault is within the network.
I am 7 weeks into this fault and hence heading for the stage where I will be requesting a deadlock letter from BT to take to the ombudsman. I have no ADSL alternatives at the exchange, being in a semi-rural area and BT is the only supplier in the area. Basically, I can either stick with BT on a connection which works intermittently and occasionally, or look at a more expensive laggy satellite system. However, this seems a tad unfair as I have plenty of neighbours enjoying the 8mbit max speeds in the area. Also, the exchange is under consideration for fibre upgrade so others in the area will be enjoying even more modern age tech, the unlucky few will still be getting ignored by BT as it suppose its difficult to fix all of the problems so if a few customers are left out, who cares?
I have requested multiple times that someone pick up this issue and own it to resolution because we, the BT customers, are paying for the incompetence of the whole organisation to resolve faults in a fair and reasonable time scale in a number of engineer visits befitting the problem. This seems to be falling in deaf ears. I have requested multiple times that the issue be escalated to avoid going round the same loop. That seems to fall of deaf ears also. The same team of BT resolution personnel are bouncing the same issue round and round to try and stop the issue escalating. One person told me the issue would be passed onto the tier 2 manager but that was a week ago and I've since heard nothing more.
I've guestimated that I've had at least 7 engineer visits to either the property or exchange on behalf of my fault. I know of 7 other people in the same boat (I know this because our local post office has a list of known broadband “problem” customers) who will have arguable had a similar number of engineer visits over the course of their faults or complaints. So I would round up to 50 visits to the one fault which hasn't fixed it. Thats at least £5000 wasted, going on BT's charge to customers for a wasted engineer visit at £99.
I feel its a very sad situation that the small percentage of “difficult” problems such as mine are being kept under wraps in order to conceal the multiple failings of this thoroughly salami sliced organisation which Im sure presented plenty of opportunities for statistics to become lost. Not to mention glorious overheads of multiple engineer visits.
So there it is, I have 7 days before the 8 weeks are up and I involve the ombudsman. I have got no where with BT on any front and my fault is still being thoroughly contained by the faults team as they are completely unwilling to raise a serious complaint about the handling of the case while the faults is still existing. A very clever trick which I presume waits for the satisfied customer to develop before receiving feedback on their wonderful experience.
So if anyone reading this happens to be a BT employee/share holder/director feel free to offer up suggestions on how to progress this anywhere. And anyone else reading this – if there is any alternative provider for services in your area, I would use them. BT will not help.
Apologies for the increasing sarcastic tone but reliving the situation in word form is even more laughable as a state in the year 2013. I had broadband 10 years ago that was faster and more stable.
Kind regards

FRM-92101- There is a failure in the form server during startup.

Hi,
I'm deploying a forms 10g application . I'm using Oracle Application Server Forms and Reports Services 10.1.2.0.2 under Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5, along with an Oracle 10g Database on another server. Every time I try testing the form services using http://10.0.4.114:7778/forms/frmservlet it brings out the errorFRM-92101- There is a failure in the form server during startup. This could happen due to invalid configuration. Please look into the web server log file for detail
Right now, I'm a bit lost. Can anyone please tell me if there is some parameter I have to set, or something I should do to make it work?
Thanks a lot

Fabian,
I did not make changes to those files. The forms services are working on another server with Red hat Rel 4 and 3 . What I did is to configure a new server with Red Hat Rel 5 , took the backup of all the forms binaries and the HOME and restore on the new server. I did the same thing for a server running rel 4 and it has no issue:

Do latest macbook pro's still have the heat issue? (7/10/06)

wondering if the latest revisions of macbook pro still have the heat issue.. i heard the issue of the fan going off/on causing that 'whine' is gone and now the last thing holding me back from making the 'switch' is this heat dealy.

My week 12 MBP has never had heat issues. It's fast, stable and comfortable to use.
The case bottom of my 5+ year old TiBook gets hotter than the MBP. I've used a tilt stand for PowerBooks for years, both to reduce heat and because I prefer the typing angle.
People are not getting burned. Really. If I were to charge a battery at the same time I'm running processes that load up both CPUs, the metal strip behind the function keys would get quite warm. It might be uncomfortable to touch (but doesn't have to be touched to use the computer). But it will not result in a physical burn, unless one loves discomfort enough to keep touching it for a protracted period. Even then, not a serious burn. A cup of coffee or tea is far more dangerous than a MacBook Pro.
I've encountered several hot-running MBPs owned by people that I know in my local area. In each case, the problem was caused by software that was loading up the processors at full blast. One case was a runaway process that was initiated by software that was incompatible with the Intel processors. Another was caused by a stalled startup item -- again, software incompatible with the Intel CPU. In both cases, Migration Assistant had been used and the applications had not been updated for Intel compatibility.
And still another case was a large collection of Widgets, some of which are badly written and load up the processors. Deactivating all but 3 or 4 Widgets made that computer run cool and quickly.
Complaints about heat on this forum dropped dramatically after the last firmware update.
If you want the most powerful notebook computer Apple has ever designed, get a MacBook Pro. I'm delighted with mine. No fix necessary, thank you.

Has anyone felt the heat from their monitor?

I have a Penryn 2.8 GHz 24" iMac and I park my face fairly close to the screen (about 12 inches (30.5 cm) and I can feel the heat of the screen.
I took temperature readings with a lab thermometer on 9 points distributed on a grid across the screen and it averages about 103 degrees F(39.4 C), ranging from 101 F (38.3 C) to 107 F (41.6 C). These measurements were taken while the computer was idle with just the screen saver running and the brightness at maximum.
Has anyone felt the heat of their screen like this? Has anyone ever tried to measure it?
Where does all the heat come from, is it all derived from the backlight or from the computer itself (107 is from the upper left and the 101 is from the lower right)?

You might be interested in running SMCFanCOntrol to keep your temps down. I'd recommend keeping the HD under 50C and the Power Supply under 60C.

Create a report using the HEAT Call Logging Systems Hours of Operation

In the HEAT Call Logging System we have set up the 'Hours of Operation.'
Now when creating our Crystal Reports we would like to incorporate those hours of operation.
What I am needing to know is how we can use the hours of operation we set up in HEAT in our Crystal Reports.
An example of how I picture this working is as follows....
A call ticket within the HEAT Call Logging System is created at 4:55 pm and assigned to a tech.
The tech does not get to the ticket to acknowledge it prior to 5:00 and leaves for the day.
The tech comes in the next day at 8:00 am and first thing acknowledges the ticket.
What I would like to see in the reports is by using the 'Hours of Operation' the actual time against the tech is from 4:55 pm to 5:00 pm and then again from 8:00 until the time they acknowledge the ticket.
This tracking only the hours of operation for every ticket.
Hope you can help.
Thank you in advance!

Here is a link to a sample report that calculates Business Days and Hours during hours of operation. https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/a011c418-a375-2b10-2b9c-b070fdba0f84
It should provide you with the logic to track your ticket hours.
