Bug in new WiFi sleep option may explain 'battery killing'?

Although the WiFi sleep option defaults to the supposed old behavior (WiFi stays connected), it doesn't have any effect. In fact, from what I can tell, WiFi always disconnects when you're sleeping, now, after a minute or so, regardless of the setting.
I've tried re-doctoring without any effect - this option just seems broken (and set to the new, less battery-friendly option permanently).
Perhaps this helps to explain why people are saying 1.4 is 'killing their battery'?

Previously, it seemed that the phone stayed connected to WiFi - thus, if I was logged into AIM, or waiting for email, and I was in a low coverage zone, I would stay connected to the network.
Now, regardless of the setting, after a minute or so the phone disconnects from WiFi. (I can't really tell if it's powering WiFi off completely - it doesn't seem to be.) So, I'm logged out of AIM, and don't get email. If I wake up the device, things reconnect.
That's definitely not how it seemed to behave in 1.3.5.1 -- or, at least, there's been some other change, since the behavior is quite different. I don't think I'm remembering wrong... it was only a few days ago!

New iOS 4.1 is a battery KiLLER!

As i bought my iPhone 3Gs I used the normal 3. ... iOS versions .Some weeks later i updated the iOS 4. Ok! nothing to say. But with 4.1 my battery is down on 55% after play 40 minutes, 30 minutes of music and 5 min at 3G internet. Also on Standby Mod, i lost 5% each hour.! ***????

Same here. But besides the battery drain (it's not constant, sometimes it behaves normally), there's an abnormal data exchange. Doing absolutely nothing, I can even have MBs of useless data downloaded; so annoying. Should we blame gamecenter for this? Time will tell (hoping it will be a short time, I think this is a widespread issue).

Doug's got it right. It sounds like you are trying to open a later version file in an earlier version. This will always be handled as opening the PDF portion of the file. Try Googling AI_openMultiPagePDF for a script to open these or Resave from the newer version to the older.

Do you clean your iPad screen? Do not use standard window cleaners, with ammonia or alcohol, like Windex, but a damp towel, followed by a micro-fibre cloth is recommended. There are also cleaners you can buy which are specifically designed for iPad/iPhone devices, such as iClean from Monster.

Can't log in with my Apple id password, so can't set new wifi up

Hi, first time on my iPad since new wifi set up, and I now can not get into my iPad to set up the New WiFi keycode, I keep constantly getting the "sign into icloud, enter Apple id password", and I can't get to any settings annoyingly.
Now I had not changed my Id password prior to this problem, yet I have since changed it through another device, yet without WiFi on my iPad this will not update.
I have shut down and restarted, to see if this helps but it didn't, can anyone help with this annoying little problem so I can set up the New WiFi?

Hi I am facing some bug in new Firmware V50.0.005
1) In the music library it is not showing any song.(i am having arround 500 songs in memory card)
2) If i try to refresy the library, it will not complete the process. (i.e. continuesly it will show refreshing and i have manuly stoped after 1 hour). and still no songs in all songs list.
3)While playing radio it will hang after some time.(After 15 min to half an hour). you have to restart your phone to close that radio application. (no other go)
If any Solution is there for this please let me know.
Thanks in advance
Ssandesh T S

For the radio problem, You may have to try to reinstall your firmware, or failing that, you may have to do a reset.
For the music library:
1. Connect your 5800 to you PC in Mass Storage Mode
2. On your PC you will need to have allowed to “Show” hidden files, do this from Explorer/Tools/ Folder Options/ View and select “Show hidden files and Folder”
3. Open your SD memory card/Removable Disk in My Computer on PC
4. Go to E:\ Private there you will see 3 folders 101f8857, 101ffca9 and 10281e17 .
5. Go to Private\101f8857\Cache\E there you will see .dat files. Delete all the .dat file BUT NOT the E Folder. Shown above right
6. Now go to Private\101ffca9 there you will see another .dat file, Delete the dat file NOT the folder.
7. Finally go to Private\10281e17 There you should see 4 files 2 are Mp3 files other are Podcast files. Delete mpxv2_2.db & mpxv2_2.db-journal for Mp3 files list and Delete pcv6_1.db & pcv6_1.db-journal for Podcast files list. Shown above right
8. Close all windows and disconnect your Phone. Go to Music Library and it should automatically start a refresh.

Install RAC 11gR2 and Apply Patches with OUI New Software Updates Option

Has anyone tried the installation with the New Software Updates Option?
I will install 11gR2 RAC Grid and I plan to do the following steps:
1) Install Oracle Grid Infrastructure Patchset 11.2.0.2
2) Do all the configuration with OUI
3) Create ASM disks
4) Install Oracle Database 11.2.0.2 Software Only
5) Apply Oracle Recommended Patches 11.2.0.2.2 (12311357) and 12431716. (ref. MOS doc [ID 756671.1])
6) Create RAC Database (advanced option) with DBCA
With these steps:
Grid and ASM disks would be configured without the recommended patches, but the database will be created with the patches applied.
I would not like to do a "Software only" install of GI and then apply the patches because later I would have to manually do all the configuration steps.
If I use the OUI Software Updates Option to apply the patches, will OUI do all the patching and then let me configure GRID with OUI ?
Quote from Oracle® Grid Infrastructure Installation Guide 11g Release 2 (11.2) for Linux - Part Number E17212-11:
" Use the Software Updates feature to dynamically download and apply software updates as part of the Oracle Database installation. You can also download the updates separately using the downloadUpdates option and later apply them during the installation by providing the location where the updates are present."
I could not find more detailed information about this feature on documentation and MOS .
Thanks

Wake From Sleep Option Dimmed DBT-120 ver. C1

The bluetooth wake from sleep option is disabled for my Apple wireless keyboard and mouse. I'm using the Apple recommended dlink DBT-120 adapter, version C1. Bluetooth firmware updater 1.2 says my hardware is up to date, so it won't install. Updater 1.2.1 will not run on either of my Macs (G4 MDD or G5 DP), which are both running 10.4.8.
Any ideas on getting the wake from sleep option working with the DBT-120 version C1 adapter?
G5 2GHZ DP Mac OS X (10.4.8)

Good news - I now have full bluetooth functionality with keyboard & mouse, including wake from sleep, as well as certain start-up key combos. Here's how it did it, after reading numerous related Discussion posts:
- I gave up on the DBT-120 version C1 adapter, and got an older D-Link DBT-120 version B3 on eBay. The collective experience in the Discussions, and my own, show that the current Apple bluetooth firmware updaters (1.2 & 1.2.1) do not work with the newer DBT-120 version C1. Too bad this isn't clearly explained on Apple's download pages, or in the updater readme files.
- To help ensure a successful firmware update, I unplugged all other USB devices except the wired mouse & keyboard, booted Panther 10.3.6 from a firewire backup drive, ran no other applications, and prevented the Mac from sleeping.
- I used bluetooth firmware updater 1.2 (not 1.2.1) to update the firmware on the version B3 adapter. It does indeed take about 15 minutes to complete the firmware update, and goes through several write and wait cycles during the process.
- After the update was completed, I shut down, and totally removed power from the computer & all peripherals for a few minutes before restarting.
- Upon restarting, I had to delete the old C1 adapter based keyboard & mouse pairings from Bluetooth Preferences, and create new pairings using the upgraded B3 adapter. (I also marked the keyboard & mouse as Favorites.) I'm guessing this was necessary because some of the bluetooth pairing information must be stored in the bluetooth adapter - it's not all stored in OS X's preferences.
Aside from being able to wake from sleep, the Apple-upgraded DBT-120 (B3) enables smoother mouse operation and more reliable right-clicking.
Guess I'll have to find another use for my new DBT-120 version C1 adapter, unless Apple eventually comes out with an updated bluetooth firmware upgrade for it. Hello, Cupertino?

Hi folks, you might know how to fix this: my wifi shows (no hardware installed) then I went to system preferences and deleted the wifi connection, I went also to system information and I can not see wifi listed on Network, how can I create a new wifi ?

Hi folks, you might know how to fix this: my wifi shows (no hardware installed) then I went to system preferences and deleted the wifi connection, I went also to system information and I can not see wifi listed on Network, how can I create a new wifi or simply solve this, I have tryied shotdown pressing keys like P and R, option, etc. Please help me .

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a Fusion Drive or a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

My ipad2 has lost wifi connectivity at adistance while all other devices connect to new wifi.

After getting new wifi network, my ipad2 loses connectivity unless it is right beside the router. All other devices have good wireless connectivity.

Some things to try first:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
    •    Launch Settings app
    •    Tap on Wi-Fi
    •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
    •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

I need to get a new wifi card for my mac air. do i have to buy this from a apple store? i live fare away from an apple store.

I spilled some red wine on my keyboard and i cannot connect to the internet any more. it says on the internet icon: Wi-fi: no harware installes. so i guess i need to get a new wifi card for my mac air. do i have to buy this from a apple store? i live fare away from an apple store. Also, I do have a macbook with software system:
System Version: Mac OS X 10.6.8 (10K549). can I take out the wifi card from that mack and use that one for my mac air?

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
Consider yourself lucky that your MacBook is still working. Now, turn it off. Wine may have damaged other parts of your computer.
Then, take the MacBook to an Apple Store or reseller. It will be a very expensive repair, as it's not covered by warranty and the logic board has to be replaced. In some cases, it may be better to get a new MacBook.
If you can't take it to an Apple Store, contact with Apple > http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57

CRVS2010 beta - New Page Before option non consistent

Hello,
The New Page Before option is on the paging tab on the section expert.
If I select this option on a group header report section, a new page is not inserted at the beginning of the report like it did in the previous version. Instead the first group prints on the first page.
On a report that has 2 group header sections, the new page before option does insert a blank page at the beginning of the report.
I've tried it with the "Keep Together" option on the common tab, selected and not selected and both of above situations still happen.
I guess my question is whether or not the code for the New Page Before option has been changed since CR2008 first came out. I know that there are service pack upgrades, but when I was using CR2008, I didn't install any of them.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you

I re-tested this again and still notice the same thing.
Below is how I tested.
I opened a report that only has one group. When I applied the new page before option for the group header section, the page break was created in the right place.
When I used a report that has 2 groups, regardless of which group header section that I applied the "new page before" option to, the page break was not right, as explained below
When applied to the group header 1 section, the first page of the report is blank
When applied to the group header 2 section, the first page prints the page header info and the group name and no detail records.
For reports with more than one group, it doesn't seem like the new page before option works as I thought it would (meaning that the page break is applied properly), so I created a formula for the new page before option.
What I'd like to know is if the output that I described above for reports with at least 2 groups is the way that the "new page before" option is suppose to work or if the option is really only meant to be used on reports that only have one group.
Thank you
Tracy

Issue with : Stateful BSP Applications: New State Management Option

Reference:weblog by Thomas Jung - /people/thomas.jung3/blog/2004/11/09/updated-stateful-bsp-applications-new-state-management-option
I see a comment by one user to send the complete code... I am not sure what else can be sent - try it out rather than getting spoon-fed. - getting offline - sorry...
I had two issues with this ITSM way of session handling.
First - if you are using an SP42 environment, check CL_BSP_RUNTIME=>ON_SESSION_CMD() to see if CANCEL is defined as an option. If not make sure that you use &sap-sessioncmd=CLOSE" instead of the &sap-sessioncmd=CANCEL" . If CANCEL is not defined , it will give you shortdumps...
Second - when I closed the window, the session was not terminated. I used onbeforeUnLoad="exitBSPApplication(); instead of onUnLoad="exitBSPApplication(); and it worked fine. Not sure if it has any other issues.
But now I am facing a new issue... all but one application is not ending... I have no clue on why this is happening.. I am still checking..
Thanks Thomas, you are the best, as always...

Thanks for checking the code in your system.
After some investigation, I found the behavior as explained below.
If the actual url has any fields passed as parameters, e.g.. /default.htm?var1=a&var2=2 ...
- if I use CANCEL as the option, a shortdump is created and the session is not closed. if I use CLOSE, Session is terminated and no shortdump happens.
If the actual url does not have any parameters, e.g.. /default.htm ...
- CANCEL does the work, but CLOSE does not exit the session.
In my applications I used request->get_form_fields to see if there are any parameters, and if there are, then I use CLOSE as the option and else, I use CANCEL. So now, the session
management works beautifully...
There is a good chance that I am doing something wrong here too.

Sleep option grayed out after apple update

Hello,
We have had several issues over the past few weeks where about a dozen macs (Macbook Pros, Airs, iMacs, Mac Pros) have all had the same issue, and vary in OS as well; from 10.7.5, 10.8.5 to 10.9.2. They have all updated recently with Apple's new updates. Since then, the sleep option on the Macs have been grayed (greyed) out and it will not sleep or go on screensaver if left on. We want to avoid the burning of an image on the LCD screens.
I've reset the PRAM on a few to see if that will solve it. No go. I read online that manually updating some plist files would fix it or deleting them, and nothing. We need an answer quickly, users are complaining that their macbooks are heating up incredibly, and others feel like they were about to "burst into flames".
If anyone out there has had the same issue and fixed it, please advise.
Also, don't say "Just reformat and start all over"... we run a large business and need a systematic fix, not a bandaid. We are talking also about a dozen (and growing per day) computers having this issue. I am guessing we are not the only ones.
Thank you.

I know this is pretty old but there is an apple article that tells you how to fix this.
sudo pmset -a disablesleep 0
Do the above in terminal and as long as you have credentials to do so you will reenable your sleep.
