Can't reconnect, strange popup message

I find after a long period of inactivity forms will ofter lose its connection. Am learning forms at home so server and client soft is on ssame machine. When i go to the file menu and choose CONNECT or DISCONNECT I get a popup box containing a large X symbol and some unintelligible ascii characters, anybody know how I can resolve this.

I have found if my Windows laptop goes into standby mode, the connection to the Oracle DB on the laptop gets screwed up like that. Set your system to NEVER standby, and see if that helps.

  • Strange popup message

    I just started receiving a strange popup message saying that the device is not compatible with the select device. I do not have my iphone connected to anything nor any network. How do i get it to stop or do i take it back to apple??

    Clean out the docking port as dirt/lint may be in there.
    Next reboot the phone:
    Hold BOTH the HOME and LOCK buttons.
    DO NOT let go when it says slide to turn off.
    KEEP holding both until screen turns off and comes back on to Apple Logo.

  • Very strange Popup - can't get rid of it

    I've been getting a very strange popup lately when I go to certain sites and I can't get rid of it. It's an advertising thing that thinks for some reason that I live in Oakland (which i don't but is nearby). I also noticed that on certain websites now autofill puts in Oakland and some sites say i am logging in from Oakland.
    The popup looks like an XP window but is messed up and the text hangs over the edge of the box. It bounces around in the middle of my screen and makes accessing anything under it impossible.
    I have cleared cookies, cache and history. I have pop block on. This happens in Safari and in Firefox. I can send a screen shot but can't seem to paste one here.
    If I have accidentally gotten some adware installed, how can I find and get rid of it???
    Any help would be hugely appreciated!
    Thanks,
    Ed

    Thanks for the quick response. I pretty much always get it at this site:
    http://www.alluc.org/alluc/tv-shows.html?action=getviewcategory&category_uid=822
    A friend just tried the site too and said he gets the same popup but with an advert for Seattle (where he does live), so perhaps this isn't something installed on my computer after all... it is super annoying, though, so i'll give that program a try. do you have any other thoughts?

  • I have a MacBookPro, an iPad and an iMac using a wifi connection with an airport extreme base station. Lately I am having trouble with connection time outs. Right now the laptop and ipad are connected okay but the iMac has timed out and I can't reconnect

    Please help. Just the last week or so (maybe since Apple released a new software update for my Airport, I keep getting kicked off the net and can't reconnect - it doesn't even show my wifi network in the list of available networks. I am considering resetting the airport as detailed in the manual. If I do this will it act as a new one and can I set it up as from the beginning. My Mac is running OSX 10.6.8 and if I try to use the airport setup assistant it tells me i can't use this version of the app with the version of my OS (because I have upgraded my OS ) I assume
    I get a message saying my network requires a WPA password and when I put it in it says connection timeout - meanwhile here I am on my laptop and connecting okay to the net that way - so strange.
    If I connect directly to the computer I have a good connection so it is not my ISP
    I am 64 and a woman and I thought I was reasonably savvy having had Macs since 1992. This has me stumped and I really would like some advice - otherwise I think I'll just go iout andf buy a new airport.
    And just so you know . . . I have a smart TV and it is connecting to the net okay!

    The Utility transferred all of the AE's settings, so I still have to change the password, which leaves me with only 2 other questions, I think:
    1)  I assume it's just a matter of using the Utility, entering a stronger password and checking for it to be remembered in Keychain Access.  But do I have to  change the password for each individual unit-- the TC, the Extreme and both Expresses-- or will changing it just for the TC alone work for the entire network?
    Resetting the password you will need to do for each device... the utility cannot even see those old units.
    So you will have to do it for each one.. think it through.. because as you change passwords the others will lose connection.. so start from the express which are wireless extending .. change those first.. and go back up the chain.. as each one changes it will drop off the network.. until you reach extreme and change that. Then you might need to reboot the whole network to get everything talking again. If something goes wrong.. just pluck that one out of the mix and plug in ethernet.. reset and redo the setup. That is my preferred method anyway.. do everything in isolation one by one. By ethernet and then nothing goes wrong.
    2)  Who's the treasonous SOB who spilled the beans to you about the ICBM in my back yard?!?
    N.Korean hackers.
    [Edit] Whoops-- one more question:  I want to partition the TC's disk, but Disk Utility doesn't see it.  What do I need to do?
    You cannot partition a network disk. And apple provided no tools for it in the TC itself. You can pull the disk out and partition it but that voids your warranty. (although done with care who is to know).
    Look at Q3 here.

    Mixing TM and data on the TC is worth planning carefully. They don't necessarily sit happily together.

    String Url;
    try {
    Url = WDURLGenerator.getWebResourceURL(wdComponentAPI.getComponent().getDeployableObjectPart(),"close.html");
    wdThis.wdGetAtpEmpDetailsWinInterfaceViewController().wdFirePlugExitPlug(Url);
    } catch (Exception e) {
    wdComponentAPI.getMessageManager().reportException("Technical Exception occured in the application : " + e.toString(), true);
    4.Create a html page called u201Cclose.htmlu201D with Javascript code for closing a browser window.
    5.Place this html page in SRC -> Mimes -> Components -> Project Structure(Create this folder and place the html page in this folder)
    I have used Ie 7.0

  • Strange error message when I tried to use the "collaborate" function under "File"

    Has anyone else met this before? : I am trying to share my project with my team members. Tried File -> Collaborate and then try three options under it. Non e of them works. It asks for your Adobe ID in order to sign in and upload. However, every time I typed in my Adobe ID and password, it gave me strange error messages. The first time it says: User has not verified email address yet. I have been using this Adobe ID since 2008 or 2009 and of course I have verified my email address. But to make sure, I went back to my email box and search for emails about Adobe ID verification but I didn't find any (I never delete emails such as this).
    Then I tried to register a new Adobe ID. This time when I tried to singn in with the new Adobe ID, it will either say "Network may not be available" (which is not true because I am able to surf on the Internet at the same time), or it says "User has not accepted user condition/agreement".
    I feel so frustrated because I feel this is definitely not my mistake which caused the failure of log in.
    Hope someone can tell me what the reason is and how to fix it though.
    Thanks a lot.

    Hi Lilybiri,
    Thanks for your quick response. I followed your suggestion and verified my Adobe ID on acrobat.com.
    Now I can enter the collaborate function. However, everytime when I tried to send it to myself (for test purpose) I got another error message "You need to enter a valid emaill address". I saw someone else on this forum has met the same problem. Do you have any suggestion on what is the possible reason for this to happen?
    Again, thanks for the fast response. You have been helping me and other ppl so much.

    "Current browser"? When viewing anything, or just when using an APEX app?
    Ans .. Just when using apex app....even if the apex app is minimised ..The current browser will be the one where I am using apex app...
    What i am looking for some scheduler .. to check ..in the table every 5 minute for change if there is a change..then a popup alert be shown...
    Split it into [at least] 2 components, database and browser. I'd expect someone calling themself a "DBA Architect" to have some ideas about the database side of things, even if not clued up on JavaScript and AJAX?
    I dont think its a database isssue... When i say to check every 5 minutes ..it could be easily done via dbms_scheduler ...I am having issue in getting the popup alert message...
    in apex... Dont know wether there is a plugin like modal window(available from skill builder) which shall help in this scenario,.Or might be have to use java scripting and ajax ..
    and if it is that (Java scripting and Ajax) .....then shall have to be familiar with java scripting and Ajax...and this shall be a bit time consuming..
    Had a feeling this could be accomplished via java scripting and ajax.. ...but still looking for some easy way..

  • To display a popup message alongwith ALV grid

    Hi Experts,
    I have a requirement where I need to display data using ALV Grid. Also, in case there are any errors encountered during the data extraction I need to inform the user about it by using either a popup message or a status message stating that he needs to check the error log. To display the error log I have provided a push button which will take the user to another screen where he can see all the errors encountered.
    Can anyone please let me know as to how to accomplish the task of displaying a status message alongwith a ALV grid display?
    Looking forward to your reply.

  • Can't reconnect Missing Referenced Masters

    I have a library which is a mixture of Managed and Referenced Masters.  Library on SSD and Referenced Masters on HDD.
    A very small number of Masters have gone AWOL and I can't reconnect them.  Using Spotlight, I can locate the actual Masters with Finder - they are just where I expect them to be, in a subfolder in a Folder called "Aperture Masters" on my HDD.
    Here is an example
    The badge on this image looks like this
    When I choose Update from Master, I get this message
    So then I try to reconnect via "Locate Referenced Files..." and get this message
    These images are findable by filtering on "Missing" or "Offline"
    All but one have the badge with the arrow and the yellow triangle.
    One has a badge like this (a kind of inverted MobileMe sourced badge
    Any ideas on how to reconnect?

    Interesting.  The User Manual I was reading is a PDF and it defines the badge as this.  Note that the badge is flipped in the two versions and the PDF doesn't mention FaceBook or Flickr.
    Seems I should re-download the User Manual

  • How do I show and hide a popup message by the program

    Hi,
    I've the following problem. Sometime the program must wait to open a seriel port. On slow machines, this could take some seconds.
    During this time I'll display a popup message with the message "please, be patient....".
    After the port is open, the message should be hide by the program.
    JOptionPane could be good, but without a "OK" button. Everthing should be controlled by the program.
    I would implement the Runnable interface for the showing of the popup message.
    Any ideas? Thanks in advance.
    Hans

    You can use a JDialog... this will act like JOptionPane, but you can put on it whatever components you like... so no OK button!
    For example:
    JDialog dialog = new JDialog(parentFrame);
    dialog.add(new JLabel("Please be patient", BorderLayout.CENTER);
    dialog.pack();
    dialog.setLocation(100,100);
    dialog.setVisible(true);
    dialog.setVisible(false);
