Calendar / Timezone question for anyone in Arizona

I was just looking at my calendar for next week and noticed that all items are 1 hour earlier than they should be. My first thought was that the timezone was set incorrectly (Arizona doesn't observe DST). In fact when I went to Settings -> General -> Date & Time with Set Automatically On it shows me in Cupertino. If I turn Set Automatically Off and type in Phoenix for the Timezone next weeks calendar is correct.
Not sure what else I should do to get the phone to automatically put me in the right timezone. I've made sure Setting Time Zone is on under location services. Went outside to make sure I had a good GPS signal while toggling Set Automatically On and Off.
Anyone in AZ or any other place that doesn't observe DST seeing similar issues?

Hey Dark,
Follow Allan's advice. You might just find an "Easy Out" that will fit perfectly. Otherwise you'll have to drill it out a bit to get a grip. There is a liquid that had carborundum grit in it that I've used with success.
One heads up, that power button lead is really tiny and can be easily ripped out. You have to detach it before the outer case is more than 5" or so off.

'Genius' related question for anyone with over 1.2TB of music?

Anyone out there with a iTunes library with over 1.2TB of music?
Reason I ask, is that I've not been able to solve a problem in updating Genuis - I'm getting the error - 'Genius results can't be updated right now. There is not enough memory available ~ Please try again later.' or the 'unknown 4002 error'. The steps I've taken to try and correct sometime back can be found in https://discussions.apple.com/message/12584815#12584815 and also shown here in sequence below.
I keep thinking this will be fixed with the next version iTunes but so far with the latest, things still the same. So looking to see if anyone with a similar size library is having similar problems and it just a limitation of the program or it's something specific on my end that I can fix.
Appreciate...
Up to this weekend I've had not issues with Genius. Worked beautifully and updated last Sunday as I have been doing every week since Apple added Genius. Yesterday I added a few albums and went to update and now getting the error of 'Genius results can't be updated right now. There is not enough memory available ~ Please try again later.' Now my library is well over >200,000 songs and only added 6 albums this time. Music sits on a external 2TB drive ~100GB free and my MacBook Pro has over 60GB open. Running latest Mac OSX and latest iTunes. Nothing new installed or changed since last Genius update.
To the points raised in this thread.
1. I've been updated weekly with a Library with over 200K songs till now with no problem. Majority is what I've ripped from my albums & CDs.
2. Deleted the albums recently added since last successful update - same result.
3. Connected directly to the network bypassing router as suggested here - same result.
4. Reinstalled iTunes program - same result.
5. Repaired permissions - same result.
Problem remains. Welcome any additional thoughts.
Question for anyone with a music library
https://discussions.apple.com/message/12584815#12584815
Ok, tried all the suggestions here yet the problem remains.
In addition what I posted above -
1) Dumped the cookies in user/library/cookies folder
2) Deleted the apple cookies found under Safari Preferences "Show Cookies"
3) Repaired disk permissions
4) Deleted iTunes Library Genius.itdb file
5) Reinstalled iTunes (with the new 10.1 version)
6) Restarted computer
7) Rebuilt iTunes Library folder http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1451
8) Deleted all iTunes dead tracks
http://dougscripts.com/itunes/scripts/ss.php?sp=removedeadsuper
9) Increased internet access speed
10) Removed all open "[" and '}' brackets from songs, albums & artists
10) Rebuilt my entire library from scratch!
Is there anyone out there with over 200K songs that can update their Genius? One thing I noted is the genuis.itdb file is just over 2GB. I'm wondering if there is a maximum size on this based on the error I'm getting. Any thought or know info on this?
Ok, think I may have found something here with this. I backed out all the music added prior to this problem occurring and ran the Genius update. All worked fine. I then started adding the music back little by little (running the update each time) until the problem returned. When the problem came back I ruled out the specific music added by backing that bit out, verified all was ok and added a different batch back in.
Bottom-line it appears that when my library exceeds exactly 1.208TB the problem appears. Interestingly enough it does not appear to be related to the number of songs, the size of the genius.itdb file (in fact when it was working the file was at 2.25GB - larger than what I reported before). It specifically seems to be related to the size of the overall library - when I have it for example at 1.2079 all is ok, 1.2081 it fails with this error.
I did try moving the library and related files to the external drive but same result. abavetta, I think your suggestion of this script may be a workaround for now - although from what I read, is this not the same that you can do anyway with iTunes by holding the alt/option key open start up? In fact I do have two libraries now - one with the 2TB drive which I use at home and another for 2x500GB disks I carry with me when i travel. I just reported the same back to Apple but doubt if any immediate solution will come for this. Too bad as one of the great things about having such a large library is the mixes you can generate via Genius. Anyway, such is life and will just live with this for now. I also just found this program called Tangerine! http://www.potionfactory.com/tangerine/ which creates playlists like Genius - although through a different technique I might also take a look at.

Just to let all know that may be having a similar problem, what I found by accident to fix this problem.
Reset all my Home Folder permissions using the resetpassword method from the startup utility in Lion. Then turned off/on to reset Genius and cleaned out the cache folder for good measure. Finally after more than a year without, have Genius up and running again.

Questions for anyone using this forum

is this forum only for people who have problems with apple stuff to go and complain so that we feel better, because i've posted numerous questions on this and other forums, non have gotten replies. i really feel as though this is only a place where people can go to vent some frustration with things. i'm not even sure if there's a guy (or team,which there should be,) out there just looking at these questions and trying as best as they can. now i understand if its only a group of like ten gpeople there to help us because there has got to be at least a million people, if not more, out here sing mac products and experienceing problems. i just want to know if its really that hard to get a little responce about things. we have problems, we come here for answers because thats where apple tells us the answers are.
now my latest question may not be able to be answered by an apple tech, but, where is the best place to hock an iPod for $$$. mine is dead and will not come back to life. i want to get another iPod but its not in my budget unless i can sell my current dead iPod to put a down payment on a new one. so if theres anyone out there with an answer, please respond, otherwise its like talking to a wall.
Windows XP Pro 20 gb iPod photo

No, this is definately not a place just to complain so you can feel better. These are user-to-user support forums. Nobody here works for Apple (other than an occasional moderator). We're just users like you who enjoy helping others.
I haven't seen your other posts, but usually if a post goes a while without a response, it's because the post either doesn't provide enough information, or is just a rant and doesn't ask a specific question. Post a detailed description of your problem without ranting about it and you will be very likely to receive help.
If your iPod is dead, you can either sell it on ebay or somewhere (people will buy non-functioning iPods), or take it to an Apple store and give it to them and receive 10% off a new iPod.
Cheers!

I have a question for anyone that can help me with ACER mini laptop!!

I am thinking of buying this laptop, i really just need it for internet, storing photos, and simple tasks...I dont really need a whole lot of bells and whistles. I would like to be able to watch movies on it when i'm traveling, and i'm assuming i would have to buy a attachable DVD drive for it correct? If anyone has this computer, or knows anything about it I would appreciate a response before I decide to buy it
Thank you in advance.

I have a 9" Aspire One and love it, although I wish I'd known about the 10" one coming out, it's less than what I paid for my 9" in December! (I also have a fullsized laptop for gaming and such, but many times I just bring the tiny AAO along - superportable and great battery life)
As previously mentioned, you can't legally save DVDs to the hard drive of a computer to watch on a plane (or whatever) even if you own the DVD. No real technical barriers, but it is not legal.
I do routinely take TV recordings from my MythTV (Computer-based PVR, kind of like TiVo on steroids) system and recompress them with Handbrake (http://handbrake.fr/) for my Aspire One. Recompressing broadcast TV recordings is legal.
FYI - The netbooks Best Buy sells are usually the same price as from other sources but frequently include a smaller 3-cell battery instead of a 6-cell battery, a fact which is not mentioned on Best Buy's online ordering systems, or at least wasn't a few weeks ago.
*disclaimer* I am not now, nor have I ever been, an employee of Best Buy, Geek Squad, nor of any of their affiliate, parent, or subsidiary companies.

A CR remote ODBC connection question for anyone brave enough to jump in.

Greetings.
Been working with CR 2008 for about a month now, having great success. Two days ago it all went south as I hit a brick wall. Yep, I'm a relative newbie to CR, but I've been doing IT for many years. This has really got me stumped. Any takers?
My testbed:
I have a segregated network with two PCu2019s (A and B). PC (A) is running XP-Pro (32-bit) at IP 192.168.1.104, while PC (B) is running Win 7-pro 64-bit at IP 192.168.1.100.
I installed CR 2008, Oracle 10g Express and MySQL Server 5.5 on both, so they are both configured identically from a database/server perspective. Both use Norton Internet Security 2011.
Oracle EX came with a sample HR database. I added a normalized Innodb compliant northwind database to the SQL Server and verified both installations.
Both CR programs on PC(A) and on PC(B) can connect without issue to their respective local databases. The HR database has been successfully (locally) accessed by CR. The Oracle northwind database has also been successfully accessed (locally) by CR.
The problem:
When running CR on PC(A), I cannot find a way to successfully connect it (i.e., CR) via ODBC to the other databases on PC(B) - or visa versa.
I have eliminated the obvious possibilities like firewalls or improper port addressing. Strangely, I can create DSNs on PC(A) that tells me it successfully connects to the target DB on PC(B), but for whatever reason I cannot get CR on the same machine to successfully use the same DSN that just successfully connected without CR. ARRRggggggg!
For example:
Step 1:
I set up a System DSN as follows on PC(A) in my attempt to connect to the target HR database on PC(B):
System DSN: HR-Fastsob
Driver: CR Oracle Wire Protocol ODBC Driver 5.3
Standard connection, Host: 192.168.1.100
Port: 1521
Service name: XE
Step 2:
I click on the Test Connect in the u2018ODBC Oracle Wire Protocol Driver Setupu2019 window.
It responds with a u2018Logon to Oracle Wire Protocolu2019 window, in which I am prompted to enter the User Name and password. On the Oracle Express setup, I configured the database instance with root access as User: u2018SYSTEMu2019 and Password: u2018Passwordu2019, so I figured these should be the correct credentials.
I click the u2018Test Connectionu2019 connection button and breathe a sigh of relief as it tells me Iu2019ve u2018successfully connectedu2019.
Step 3:
3.1 - I launch CR
3.2 u2013 I create a new blank form
3.3 u2013 I create a new connection
3.4 - I click on ODBC (RDO)
3.5 - I select the HR-Fastsob DSN from the list of DSNs.
3.6 - Click next
3.7 - An ODBC (RDO) connection window appears. Iu2019m prompted to enter the user ID and password (SYSTEM and Password respectively), then hit the u2018Finishu2019 button.
3.8 - A u201CLogon Failedu201D pop-up appears. I hit the u2018OKu2019 button.
3.9 - Another popup appears saying u201CDatabase Connector Error: u201808s01:[Crystal Reports][ODBC Oracle Wire Protocol driver]Connection refused. Verify Host Name and Port Number. [Database Vendor Code -1]u201D. I sigh, then hit the u2018OKu2019 button.
3.10 u2013 Yet another window appears saying u201CLogon filed. Details: 08001:[Crystal Reports][ODBC Oracle Wire Protocol driver][Oracle]ORA-12203: unable to connect to destination [Database Vendor Code -1]. I hit the u2018OKu2019 button.
3.11 - An ODBC (RDO) connection window appears with my earlier entries (from step 3.7). No matter what I enter, the results are the same.
Two days later, Iu2019m still scratching my head.
I'm really hoping there's a guru in here that can feel my pain and who can dumb down the solution to this perplexing problem I'm facing.
Iu2019m really at a loss. Obviously, I donu2019t fully understand ODBC connectivity well enough.
The next beeru2019s on me if you get this one.
Thanks to anyone willing to help me out

Hi Don....
Thanks for jumping in -- much appreciated.
Your suggestion seemed plausible, as I had alternated between the system32 (64-bit) and the sysWOW (32-bit) odbc drivers. I thought maybe I had mixed it up...but alas, that didn't turn out to be the source of my problem. Your suggestion is still valid though, had I been using the 64-bit ODBC driber with a 32-bit CR app.
I decide to try another approach -- by eliminating CR from the equation altogether. I ran Microsoft excel against the same remote databases using the same DSN and voila.... all worked as I thought it should in the first place. My connection was extremely fast and rock solid.
This would ( I believe) suggest that the issue is with my version of CR i.e., Developer edition (v12.3.0.601) running on Win 7.
I tried running CR in compatibility mode XP-Pro SP2, but got the same errors. So now I have to decider whether or not to upgrade to CR 2010 in the hopes it will work on Win 7 Pro 64-bit.
Thanks again for stepping up.
warm regards
Bob

Question for anyone who has the American Ball game

I've been spending a lot of time saving up my tickets in American Ball so I can unlock some more items.
I've finally reached 5,000 tickets and I'm wondering if the table that costs 5,000 tickets is worth it.
Is there any difference between the different skee-ball tables aside from the appearance? For example, does the skee-ball table that costs 5,000 tickets have a higher ticket pay-out than the one that only costs 1,000 tickets? Or is it basically just a different skin with all the same features?

Hi Julio,
I sat exam 98-364: Database Fundamentals just to see what the MTA exams were like and found the question difficulty and content very similar to what was outlined in the study guide available from Certiport. I found
the exam rather easy however I've had quite a lot of experience with databases and also have a number of other Microsoft database certifications.
You need to keep in mind that the MTA exams are designed for people who are just starting an IT career path or are looking to enhance their understanding of IT fundamentals i.e. These exams are really for beginners. As stated by Davin, you'd probably be
better off looking into the MCSD: Web Applications certifications.

Question for Anyone Using CS4 Production Premium with Windows 7

I'm testing Windows 7 at home with CS3 Production Premium and have not had any issues. Of course CS4 is quite a bit different.
Anyone using CS4 Production Premium on Windows 7 regularly? Any issues to report?
Thanks

Thanks for replying to my post:
mark_m wrote:
"I notice that when I open an old CS4 project and PPro asks you to locate the file, that the "show only exact file name" tick box seems to have no effect.
This is on Windows 7 RC 64bit."
On our systems at work that have XP and Vista + CS4 Production Premium. I've noticed this with preview files in particular and possibly some others, I don't remember. The "show only exact file" checkbox is greyed out. This is somewhat annoying because projects can have a huge number of preview files with long cryptic names making it a pain to locate the correct one manually to get the ball rolling. If I don't think it'll take too long to re-render, I just select "skip preview files".
We bought 3 licenses for Windows 7 and I'm encouraged by the performance, reliability and features on my home test system (RC 64) that has CS3 installed. Can't wait to get rid of XP and Vista.

Question for anyone using Modul8 2.5.8 with QuickTime 7.6?

Like the title says, please answer only if you're using Modul8 with the new version of QuickTime. There is no place for speculation, no matter how well informed, in this thread.
I've got a gig on Saturday night and I don't want to risk any degradation in performance necessitating an "archive and install" between now and then. On the other hand, if the improved Motion JPEG performance mentioned in the release notes is reflected in Modul8, then I'm all over it!

There is room for speculation, since others who might read this could benefit from it.
If you're in dire need of the system to work during your gig, and it's working now, then dont update to 7.6 until after the event this weekend. This goes for any update, and not just quicktime.

Questions for anyone who is familiar with Apple's Pages application

I'm writing something on page layout software and have some questions about Apple's Pages product:
Does Pages let you import native Photoshop files?
Import native AI files with PDF preview?
Regular PDF files?
Does Pages let you work in CMYK?
Spot colors?
Spot and CMYK together?
Export to PDF?
You don't have to answer all these. I can use any help I can get.

I just did a little testing. The current version of Pages in iWork 08 did better than I expected. It has both Word Processor and Page Layout modes. Page Layout mode lets you add real pages and word like a layout application.
It places Photoshop and AI files with PDF preview, and the first page of a regular PDF file (I couldn't find where you could choose pages). Choose Insert > Choose. The Help says it accepts all QuickTime-supported file formats.
"After importing an image into a document, you can mask (crop) it and change its brightness and other settings. You can place an image inside a shape, text box, chart element, or table cell. Pages also lets you work with graphics with transparency (alpha-channel graphics)."
Also supports adding 2 and 3D charts, sounds, movies.
I created objects and colored them with the CMYK sliders. I didn't see a way of choosing spot colors.
PDF is one of the export formats (without the choices of course of InDesign). It correctly exported the PSD, AI file, and PDF. It correctly passed the spot colors in the AI and PDF files into the exported PDF. And the CMYK-colored pages objects came out in CMYK!
Much better than Microsoft Word.

Question for anyone using WebEdit

We recently have turned on this feature and are seeing sporadic problems where the application opens however the document fails to display. In its place we are presented with a garbled version of our portal login screen - as though there were a gateway/security type of issue.
A PTSPY recently revealed that the user didn't have appropriate permission to a 202 object. After guessing which class that would be it seems most likely that this is either our Collab Remote Server or our Collab Crawler. Both of these are set with the everyone group to have READ access.
If you use Collab's WebEdit could you check your security on both of these objects and see if you have it raised to SELECT for your everyone group. I can't fathom that it would be needed to be set any higher than that. Or if you have any other guidance I'd be thrilled to hear it!

Geoffgarcia,
In our installation the Collaboration Remote Server and Collab Crawler the Everyone group has select permissions on them. However I suspect the issue isn't with either of these objects, but the Checked In Property. It is object 202. Check to see if it is set to select. Hope it helps!

Question for anyone who uses temperature monitor

i think my temperature monitor is broken..i had it on my last macbook and it worked fine..but this one says my computer is constantly at 21*Celcius...and i've tried uninstalling it and reinstalling it..what is the best temperature monitor?

None of these these temperature monitors are going to work right with the current Intel Duo Core chips. It's an Intel processor design fault. I got this info from the Hardware Monitor developer.
Q: I have a Mac with an Intel Core Solo or Core Duo processor.
Sometimes, the temperature readings seems to "hang" and are no longer
being refreshed. Is this a problem with the application?
A: No, this problem is caused by an internal design flaw of current
versions of Intel Core processors. The Digital Thermal Sensors may
stop working when the processor returns from a C3/C4 power saving
state. Intel plans to correct this hardware bug for future steppings
of the CPU.
Intel refers to this hardware problem as Erratum AE18. For detailed
information, please see Intel document 30922204

Question for anyone who loves Air Attack HD

I love this game, but can you tell me how to use more than one mission out of the eight available? I'm obviously missing something. I'm stuck on the same mission every time as far as I can tell.

Is it a progressive thing where you have to complete one level, without being destroyed yourself, before you can move to the next level? In other words, you can't just pick your mission?

I'm looking for a very robust Contacts/calendar app. Does anyone Know of one?

Have you had the opportunity to use a Palm PDA. It's Contacts/Calendar has many features that the built in apps do not address. e.g significant dates can be set to remind every week, month, or year without having to enter them manually. It can set up categories that can tie events/contacts together and can be sorted in different ways and searched in those ways. This is just a sample of its functionality.
