Buying MSDN renewal from a third party pros or cons?

I was looking at renewing my MSDN Premium subscription from a third party vendor due to pricing. What forum would I ask to see if other people have done this?

You could ask them over here.

Can I buy a phone from a third party and put my sim card in it?

My son has an Intensity 3 and I want to upgrade him to a smartphone but he's not upgrade eligible for another year. Can I buy a phone like a Galaxy S4 from a third party and put the sim card from the Intensity in it?

Yes. You can call Verizon and have them mail you a compatible SIM card or go to one of the stores to pick it up.
You will want to make sure the device you get has a clean ESN before you purchase it and has not been reported lost or stolen. If you have the device id CS can help you tell if it's clean. Or you can use the link below to check.

What happens exactly when you buy a phone from a third party?

My contract is going to end this month and I have a $50 gift card to Best buy. I already posted up a question but for this post I want to know exactly what will I get and what will I won't get.
I'm hoping to buy a Droid Incredible or a Droid X2 or a Droid 3. (Have any reviews about one, two, or all of them? if you can please type them up... I already read reviews from the webpage and on google but you know more reviews are better)
So first of all, I want to get the Droids from Bestbuy... I want to. Not I have to. Otherwise, I can get a phone in a nearby Verizon store. (And I know that sometimes third party stores are bad and this one person said she got hers from walmart. But a lot of technology from walmart is bad. Bestbuy is a lot better in having better condition, quality, etc technology.)
Will I get warranty/insurance from Bestbuy?
Can I do a little demo or something like that as I search through Bestbuy's phones?
Do I get like a return guarantee or something like that if I don't like it?
If there are other things that I will get or won't get, please state what they are
Finally, I've been asking specific questions about updating but since none of them apply to me, I want to know what I am eligible for.
For a brief description: I had an LG EnV 3 but I lost that one and instead of buying a new phone, I just traded my mom's old phone (which was broken so she got a new, same type phone that she graciously gave me). And according to the employee there, when I traded phones, I was still eligible in upgrading to a new phone... Anyway, my mom's actual phone (not the one that I have) is the first line on the family plan. I will ugprade my phone when my two year contract expires.
So what do you think I'm eligible for?
I thought I was going to get $100 off but someone says that that's only for the first line... which is kinda confusing since the verizon employee said that me and my sister will get $100 when we upgrade our phones.
I'm going to call Verizon either today or tomorrow but it's always good to know what non-employees know as long as its valid.

Will I get warranty/insurance from Bestbuy?----From what I heard they do have their own insurance program that hey take out of your card directly. If you get it and Verizon teels you that you dont have insurance, dont freak out cause they cant see that.----- Can I do a little demo or something like that as I search through Bestbuy's phones?---- I dont know what you mean by a demo, but they do have phones on display to demo last I checked.------- Do I get like a return guarantee or something like that if I don't like it?---- They have a 30 day guarantee I believe, but remember that's for the phone, not for the contract thru vzw.====$100 is for primary line only, rep at store apparently wasnt paying attention or somethin lol. other than that, best buy is a 3rd party, which probaly has their own contract you will probaly sign, so you will need to read their terms throughly!!!

What happens when you buy from a third party vender

I am wondering what happens when you buy a macbook form a third party vender. In my case it is amazon.com. I am reading about people returning their macbook's to apple for a refund due to the high pitched whine everyone is talking about. My understanding is that we can still send them to apple to get fixed for the noise, but even if they can't fix it we still can't get a refund right? If I try to return it to Amazon as a defective product who decides if it is? Apple or Amazon?
Kalel

Amazon's return policy on computers doesn't exclude any brands, so I'd say that you could return it. Here's a link to it if you'd like to read it:

Do you have antiVirus installed on the sharepoint servers?
These folders may have to be excluded from antivirus scanning when you use file-level antivirus software in SharePoint. If these folders are not excluded, you may see unexpected behavior. For example, you may receive "access denied" error messages when files
are uploaded.
Please follow this KB and exclude the folders from Scanning.

Receiving a calendar event message from a third party on a BB Z10

I have a BB Z10 on the UK Vodafone network. My Z10 is set to GMT time and correctly shows that I am in the "Dublin, London" time zone. This is the GMT time zone description that all BB devices that I have ever owned have shown.
This afternoon (UK time) i received a calendar event notification from a client who I have since established was at his desk in London when he sent the message advising me of a conference call to take place next week.
The advice on the Z10 has five clear sections: "Status", "Date", a bell symbol to indicate when the reminder will sound, and a fifth symbol indicating the number on which to call in, and the PIN code.
However, and this is my serious problem, there is a third section on the advice which has a globe symbol and appears to exist to indicate where the person setting up the event was located when he/she sent the message. In the specific case of which I write, the message states "This event is displayed in local time, but was created in Reykjavik (GMT) [sic}". The actual message shows the time for the event as one hour later than the actual time that the event is scheduled to take place - in other words GMT + 2 hours - namely the time in continental Europe and Reykjavik.
I have serious issues with this:
1) Is it the real intention to indicate where the sender of the message was located when the message was sent?
2) if yes, this is a serious breach of privacy
3) if yes, the location is wrong, as the person who sent me the message has confirmed that he was at his desk in London
4) if no what is the purpose in indicating where "the message was created" (BB's words - not mine)
5) the indicated time of the event is wrong - it has assumed a different time zone than that in which I and the sender are located.
Has anyone else encountered this problem and what has BB got to say about it???
Thanks

I received the e-mail notification on Microsift Outlook from a third party (i.e. not someone within my own organisation).
The same invite on both my lap-top computer and my BB 9900 Bold did not have any mention about the sender being in Iceland (or anywhere else!) and showed the correct time and time-zone for the agreed meeting - namely, 8,30am on Friday the 19th April.
I confirm that my Z10 is set to the "Dublin, London (+0)" time zone and is currently showing the correct British Summer Time of 16.31. The device switched automatically to British Summer Time on Sunday 31st March.
I would welcome your comments.
In every other respect (apart from the infamous Outlook USB synching issue about which I am sure you have heard more than enough!!), the Z10 is an outstanding device and deserves to be the device which at long last wipes the smile off the faces of those equine rumps in Cupertino, California!!
I am expecting the roll-out of the Q10 in the UK in a couple of weeks - please??!!
Thanks again for your help and assistance

How to call the RFC's from the third party applications or Non SAP applicat

For calling RFC's from the wedynpro , SAP has provided the modeling concept.
In the same way, if i want to access or call the RFC 's from the third applications or Non SAP applications what is the procedure and what is the methodoligy.
As per my knowledge, we need to expose those RFC's as webservices . Then we must be able to acces in hetrogeous environment from any third party applications..
Please revert back soon, It is very urgent.
Regards
Vijay

Calling IPC from a third party web application

ISA, IPC experts,
We have CRM 4.0 with IPC 4.0. We are developing an in house web application in jsp/java for dealer orders. Our office staff uses CRM Online for Order Entry.
We want to use the existing pricing procedures in the IPC to derive the pricing for the web project so our user can see the price for a given product prior to placing the order in CRM.
How can we call IPC from a third party order software in java? prefereably without installing a standalone IPC (heard that IPC 5.0 may not support standalone mode)?
Can you help us with ways to call the IPC from our in house web application, or point us to some documentation about the ipc client layer?
Your help in this regard is highly appreciated.
Yanhui Yu

Hi Yanjui,
if you have a CRM installation, an IPC is part of that installation. Connect your web application to that IPC. The IPC comes with its own web applications, which base on a package com.sap.spc.remote.client.object. These are APIs that you might consider using in your web application. The package should be documented with the API docs that come with your web apps, but I'm not sure about how this is delivered (sorry).
Concerning upgradability to CRM 5.0: The IPC there does not come as its own server anymore, but offers ABAP RFC functions that are actually implemented in Java using new Netweaver technology. The 5.0 RFCs are similar, but not identical to the old IPC commands / RFCs, so an upgrade is no problem, but some changes are required. The same applies for com.sap.spc.remote.client.object, which has changed a bit as a result of the changes in the IPC APIs below.
Alternatively to using com.sap.spc.remote.client.object, you might also try to directly call the RFC functions of the IPC server. Finding out what the various parameters that you have to pass do is not too tricky:
- in your IPC installation, a file <ipc>/lib/properties/servercommands.xml contains all RFCs that the IPC knows.
- for the RFC you want to use check the respective javaname in that file.
- for that javaname check class com.sap.spc.remote.server.command.<javaname> in the javadoc API Documentation that is part of your IPC installation. This will contain rather technical details on how to call the RFCs.
Please be aware that it's not an easy job providing all the data that IPC needs to do pricing.
I would recommend using the E-Commerce application which has done this job for you already.
Best regards,
Karlheinz

How do I sign an IPA coming from a third party developer with our Distribution Profile?

We have an app developed from a third party developer. We then received his IPA file.
Upon uploading the IPA using Application Loader, we are getting this error,
We tried sending our Mobile Developer and Distribution Provisioning Profiles to him, but he cannot build the IPA and told us he needs our Private Key (which we are not considering since we fear that he may be able to develop apps using our account).
We tried manually signing the IPA using terminal but we are getting this error:
What can we do?
Thanks in advance!

Open iProcurement Smart form from a Third Party System

Hi,
I have a requirement to open the iProcurement smart form from a third party system. We have the Single Sign on functionality so the user can log into the oracle apps without entering the credentials.
Please share if someone has prior knowledge on that.
Thanks & Regards,
Munish Mittal

If the ICX_SESSION is already available then the form(I am assuming you are refering to a web based form here) should open directly if the function should be accessible to the user logged in. When you say your custom application is included in Oracle apps are you launching these pages from the Ebiz home page through menus and functions ?

How can I call reports from a third party tool?

Hi!
I'm a Delphi 6 developer and our company has a customer that want to call reports created in Crystal Reports directly from our software.
What is the quickest way to open a report from a third party tool (passing parameters) ?
There is a way to do that without embedding Crystal VCL components in Delphi? I'm searching for a command line tool or a way to open it with URLs....
Thanks in advance!

Hey good day. i recently made a back up on my phone. then i took some pictures and videos. i accidentally restored the phone. some pictures and videos including pictures from my third party application were all gone. can i still have those back?

hey good day. i recently made a back up on my phone. then i took some pictures and videos. i accidentally restored the phone. some pictures and videos including pictures from my third party application were all gone. can i still have those back?

No. If you restored the device to an older backup, then the device was brought back to that date and time, which was before those photos were taken. When you restored the device, it deleted everything off the phone and replaced it with the earlier information.
