Terms of use, explanation of points
The link to the community terms of use, and presumably to the explanation of the points system:
https://discussions.apple.com/static/apple/tutorial/tou.html
Is broken. Who would know how to fix it?
Thanks
HDThanks John, but that's a 404 for me too:
EDIT: It's Chrome. Both links work fine with Safari.
Thanks guys.

Feedback on Adobe's Term of Use Policy
Have you ever read the terms of use that you agree with when you install or download something? I'm one of those people who actually go ahead and reads the Terms of Conditions, or Terms of Use before signing anything. Not that it ever matters in most cases, I need the service that I was about to install anyway, but I always like to know what I agree with before I use it. And I’ve been doing it for years with all services that I use.
I'm a Dutch designer and I use Photoshop, Bridge, Illustrator, Reader X, Flash, Flash Player and Premiere. And after the last time I checked the Terms of Use for the Flash Player I feel I had to contact Adobe and give them some much needed feedback. However, if you wish to know the actual feedback you have to read and agree with the Conditions below… No just kidding, let me start off with a short summary.
Short sumary
If you want everyone to use your products please cater your services as simple as possible. That means that you should communicate your service in such a fashion that even those who have little to no experience with legal practices can read your legal documents and understand them.
This requires that you do the following every time you want a user to agree with your Terms of Use:
Directly link the user to the right document that they have to agree on, if they have to agree to several documents offer them several links and specifically state that the user agrees with all these documents at the same time.
List all possible languages that your service communicates with in the same document, that way you are always sure that, no matter what, everyone that you cater your services too can read your legal documents.
Start every Terms of Use document with a Table of Contents that lists all languages that you communicate in so that the user can easily find to the right language and the right page it is on.
Start every Language chapter with a title saying what language it is and then provide a table of contents that lists all the sections of the document so that all sections of the document are easilly navigatable.
Provide a short summary of the entire Terms of Use so that everyone knows what the document will be about and that even laymen who have no experience in reading contracts kan know what they agree with. (Albeit, be it in short terms.)
Provide a way that your user can contact you or your legal department in case your documents contain spelling errors, or in case the reader has questions about the document or the service that is attached to it.
And finally, if you insist on sending your users to one central website that lists all your documents, provide a “frequently used documents” section at the top of your website so that your most populair services can be found directly when needed.
So why do I say these things and why do I think Adobe needs to change his current policy? Let me tell you my full report using the example of Flash Player 12.0.
Product licenses and terms of use Website
In my experience Adobe is the absolute king of terrible terms and conditions. Now don’t get me wrong, this isn’t because their Terms are terrible or evil or anything. It’s just because most modern people have at least two Adobe products on their computer at all time and you'd expect Adobe to take a little responsibility because of this. I'm talking about the Flash Player, for YouTube use , and the Adobe Reader, for reading .PDF files. Adobe's products have regular updates that requiring you to accept the terms and conditions every time. So this is rather annoying if you actually read these terms and call me crazy because I always do.
Allow me to congratulate you if you ever clicked the link that you get when you have to agree with the Terms of Use. My guess is that hardly no-one ever does or obviously no complaint has ever reached Adobe, because the link that it provides is absolutely confusing. It links to this website, http://www.adobe.com/legal/licenses-terms.html and it’s a horror to behold, considering you only want to read the Terms and Coditions of this one service that you really want to use.
To many scaterred documents
If you’ve never seen it, the Terms and Conditions website is a large list of .PDF files that you can only access if you have an active internet connection. Now, note how all these files I'm talking about are .PDFs. Meaning that anyone who wants to read the terms and conditions of the Adobe Reader - before opening a .PDF someone sent him - probably has to already own a functional .PDF reader in order to read the terms and conditions. Be it madness, irony or a false assumption, I don’t know, but it’s a funny thought to start off on this website.
Can't find the right content
Well, there's that. But imagine you are like me and you want to update your Flash player to the new 12.0 version. You click the Terms of Use link before you tick the "Yes I agree box". You go to the website and then you look at this enormous list of documents. And you realise that there is not just one document that you have to read. You quickly spy there are several documents called “Flash” and only one of them is probably the one called "Flash Player version 12.0". But don’t forget the very important “General Terms of Use” of course. Because next to your Flash Player license you also accept Adobe's General Terms of Use. Now nobody tells you that you have to do this, nor is it written on the website itself, you just have to assume this. Because if you ever actually read a Software Terms of Use document before you know that most of them require you to also accept the General Terms of Use.
General Terms of Use may aply
The General Terms is the first document on the website, so that isn't that hard to find.
It’s this document - http://wwwimages.adobe.com/www.adobe.com/content/dam/Adobe/en/legal/licenses-terms/pdf/Ado be_General_Terms_of_Use-en_US-20121016_1205_web%20version.pdf
And on February the 17th, in 2014 this link downloads a English-only Terms of Use .PDF document that was last updated on October 16, 2012. That's right, it's two years old and English only, so it was written before the United States presidential elections of 2012. Oh and good luck to those abroad co-workers who really like to know what they have to agree with in order to read that necessary .PDF you just sent them.
But all silliness aside, download it, you open it and you read it and it's an OK terms of use document. Disappointingly enough there is no short summary at the start, so be ready to read all of it. And I mean be ready because this document takes about ten to fifteen minutes to read.
Not easilly accessable
Now, back to the main website, and directly notice how it doesn't provide Adobe’s most used Terms of Use documents at the top of this website. Instead one actually has to look up the specific document at the list of licenses below the General Terms of Use. And let me tell you that that is a long list on the main page, so better be smart enough to pop-up the search function or else you'll be straining your eyes to find what you're looking for.
I looked for the words "Flash Player" and this search function got me six different results called "Flash Player". The first one is hidden under the "downloads" tab of the website - you'll never see it unless you put a little effort into it - a third hit is the same as the second hit and the last hit is the same as the first hit but this time it's a "Download" tab at the bottom of the Website.
But the first interesting hit is found under the title "Services" and is listed as "Adobe Premium Features for Flash Player", which surprisingly enough links you to an actual website instead of a .PDF file.
- http://www.adobe.com/products/eulas/tou_premium_features_for_flash_player.html
This takes about seven to ten minutes to read and it's another fairly standard Terms of Use document. Again with no summary at the start of the document and again only in English, and also it probably isn’t necessary to read unless you got the Premium version of Flash Player.
Terrible to navigate
The third hit for "Flash Player" is a link just called "Flash Player", in this case listed under “Software Products” and it notes to be version "12". This is probably the most important document for anyone agreeing with the Terms of Use for their new Flash Player. Clicking the link downloads the following PDF file:
- http://wwwimages.adobe.com/www.adobe.com/content/dam/Adobe/en/legal/licenses-terms/pdf/Fla sh%20Player_12.0.pdf
And if you don't open it in Internet Explore or in Chrome browser, but, let's say for instance in Firefox or just download the document and open it on your desktop, you start at the absolute top of the document. Which is in some form of Arabic... And there is no Table of Content to help you out... And the entire document is enormous and in different languages... And the search term "Nederlands" - that's how Dutch people call their own language, and me being Dutch I’d like to start there - doesn't give any results. Where the search term "English" however has just two results, both in the same sentence of rule no.12 of the English version of the Terms of Use. And not at the top of the actual English language version...
This is again a fairly standard Terms of Use, but this time there is allot of "you can't use this product under these conditions" language used. Reading this document takes about seven to ten minutes and it also doesn't come with a summary at the start.
But search a word in your preferred langauge, scroll to the start of the chapter, read it, agree with it in your mind and go back to the main website because there is still one more hit under the search term "Flash Player".
To many documents with the same name
The last actual document that is linked is listed under the title "Mobile, runtime, and touch app products" and links to "Adobe Flash Player". Implying that there is a difference between Adobe Flash Player and just Flash Player. And also could start off a lot of confusion if I searched "Adobe Flash Player", instead of just "Flash Player". So this document isn't of any interest to you if you were looking for your Flash Player 12.0 update Terms of Use. But if you happen to open it, prepare yourself for the same problem as the last document. Because it also starts in Arabic, has no table of contents, it gives 4 results of the search term of English in the middle of the English language chapter and again no results for the term “Nederlands”. This document takes about seven to ten minutes to read as well.
No form of contact
All in all adding the time it takes me to find and read and agree to ALL documents that are somehow linked to the Flash Player Terms of Use it would costs the average person about an hour to find and read everything. And to me this is allot of effort to know what the hell you are agreeing with when you just want to tick that little box you had presented about an hour ago. And every time my Flash Player, or Acrobat Reader or support tool for one of my Adobe designer Software asks for a update I have to go through this time after time after time again. And I’m assuming that no-one ever does this because else any sensible company would put some effort into changing it.
So that’s why I have decided to write this three page long document and emailed it to Adobe. Since I figured someone has to be the first. But that is until you discover that Adobe doesn’t have a Customers support email address. Everything that they do that involves Support is directed to their Adobe Community Forums. For which I need a account to access and post to, for which I need to comply with another set of Terms of Use, (10 - 15 minutes of read)
- https://adobeid-na1.services.adobe.com/renga-idprovider/pages/tos/en_US/ADOBE_MASTER
And with their “Privacy Policy”, a link that directs you to a preselected language website and offers you another seven to ten minutes of reading material.
Postface
In conclusion I’m going to make a final bold assumption here. Because no-one ever bothers to read the Terms of Use, Adobe couldn't be bothered to make these contracts presentable in a user friendly fashion. Instead whenever you want to download a new update, Adobe just offers a link to the main Terms of Use website and hope you just tick the damn “I Agree” box already. And that is just an absolute disgrace for your company’s legal face, especially for a company like Adobe that frequently presents large and serieus Terms of Use Documents to it’s user base and demands them to agree or get out.I'm not being a smart alec, but... have you ever had a lengthy conversation with an copyright attorney... about what they do?
I know two personally. One because we went to school together decades ago, and the other because he is on retainer for a client of mine.
What you see in the terms of use (End User License Agreement) IS the revised version... I've never seen the FULL thing, but I'd assume it could hold it's own with the Affordable Care Act, in three areas:
1. The overall number of pages.... necessary or unnecessary.
2. The amount of sense it would make to the average person.
3. The number of people in the world who have actually read it.
I've read nearly all of the license agreements for every product I own from Adobe. Mostly because I have to answer questions about things like Norton, McAfee and Google Chrome being bundled and people say they never agreed to it... Well, by installing anything downloaded from here... they did.
BTW. You can'T install ANY legal, legitimate software from ANY company at all without agreeing to terms of use.
Here's where I will be a smart alec... If you have a problem with that... then you need to stop using computers immediately and permanently, or you're going to have a stroke from the self inflicted stress. -

I want to open the iTunes library on my new laptop with all the playlists and stuff I built on the old computer. I have all my music on an external drive. I have copied the .itl file from the old computer and opened it on the laptop, and it has all the playlists, but all of the songs that were added to iTunes up to a certain date have broken links. What am I doing wrong?
Moving library files around while leaving the data in the same place usually presents no problems. Moving the data around independently from the library usually breaks things. With Windows machines all you should need to do is make sure that the same drive letter is being used on the new system as with the old. If that is not possible you need to get your library into a portable layout before moving it between systems.
Typical layout of iTunes folders:
When the media folder is inside the main iTunes folder as shown above then the library is portable. Typically with a split library the iTunes Music or iTunes Media folder (everything inside the red outline) is moved to a different drive by choosing a new locaton for it and then consolidating.
To make the library portable again you need to copy the library files and album artwork folder into the parent folder of the media folder so that the nested relationship is recreated. (BTW If your media isn't already inside your designated media folder then you will also need to consolidate the files that are outside of it, before you copy the library files.) You can then use the hold-down-shift-when-starting-iTunes method to open the library file in that parent folder. Once the library has been opened, tested and closed you are most of the way there.
The iTunes window inherits its title from the folder holding the library files so, unless you created a folder called iTunes to hold the media folder, iTunes may now have an unexpected title when you run it. The parent folder can be renamed as iTunes, and the library opened again. Alternatively, if the parent folder is at the root of the drive, or has other data which you wish to leave in place, you can create a new top level folder called iTunes and move the library files, album artwork and media folders into it before opening and testing the library again.
If the library doesn't work after any step simply reverse it by undoing a move or rename or opening the previous set iTunes Library.itl file.
If all has gone well then the library is now portable. Once you've migrated the data to a new system you can copy the library files back to their usual internal location if you find that having them on the external drive affects performance...

[Solved] Help spotting broken links while using the shell
Hello, here I am again with another doubt (probably a very basic one ).
Is there any way to distinguish broken links from "good" links on the shell?
I'm using xfce and in thunar its very easy to spot that, it says broken link but I can't figure out how to see it easily on the shell.
I'm using bash by the way, just the way it comes out of the install.
Thanks in advance
Last edited by R00KIE (2008-10-16 21:41:45)Unfortunately no, I have tried with --color=always and with --color=auto its exactly the same thing, last one is used in the default ls alias (alias ls='ls -lh --color=auto'). I have seen this functionality in other distros, maybe if I fiddle with the file that decides which color to give to what will do the trick but I have no idea where to start
It would be nice to see this "addition" included by default in arch, little things like this do matter a lot
More on this ....
If I do dircolors -p both in arch and on a system where this is working the output looks the same, particularly this
ORPHAN 40;31;01 # symlink to nonexistent file, or non-stat'able file
... so I'm really lost here
Ok ... I think I solved it myself, so here it goes. In arch things are getting colorized by default but I have no clue where and how it selects the colors and on the other system I have tried (Fedora 7) the "default" isn't the same as in the dircolors default, but here there is a file with custom colors.
Anyway to solve this I have added
eval `dircolors`
to my .bashrc and that did the trick, I have also added it into /etc/profile.bash just in case I create more users and want it to be already set.

Dreamweaver 8 - Problematic Broken Link Check
On a regular basis I use Dreamweaver 8's broken link checker
to convert
relative links to absolute throughout single HTML files.
Once upon a time, I could use the results pane to quickly
replace all
of the broken links. Ever since installing Dreamweaver 8
(upgraded from
MX) I've had the following problem with the link checker:
1. It seems to find all of the broken links correctly,
however, when I
try to change them into absolute, it doesn't actually make
the changes.
2. Sometimes it even makes incorrect changes to the path of
the link,
such as changing the image link to a .html link randomly (I
have no
idea how this happens!)
3. When it asks if I'd like to replace the other references
to the same
file, and I respond yes, it does nothing.
After researching this topic somewhat, I have found temporary
solution,
but it's driving me crazy and I'm looking for a long-term
resolution
for this issue.
If I delete my WinFileCache-xxxxxx.dat file (under User >
Application
Data > Macromedia > Dreamweaver 8 > Configuration)
before opening
Dreamweaver, the problem is resolved until the end of that
specific
session. As soon as I close Dreamweaver and reopen it, the
problem
returns.
I understand that by deleting the WinFileCache file I am
basically
starting with a clean slate, which is why this method is
temporarily
effective. However, this is a daily problem for me and I'm
sick of
having to do it every single time I use the program....
SO...if any of you have any thoughts, suggestions, or similar
complaints, please share - I'm desperate to find a long-term
solution!

Give me an example of what it finds and what you want to
change it to,
please.

I would have to see this happen to believe it.

The real question is - why are you regularly getting broken
links? The only
reason I can think of is that your local site is actually on
a remote,
shared network drive, and there is intermittant connectivity
to it due to
some recurring network anomaly. Can you tell me how your site
is defined?

12. Your Warranty, Indemnification Obligation, and Waiver.

Hi,
Please help me with this broken link error in Office Excel 2010. Thank you.
The problem is: a broken link cannot be removed from the file. The link was used in data validation, which refers to a list of values. After the path was corrected, it still shows there’s a broken link. Here are the details:
I have 4 files named “000TVA_Test – 3”, “000TVA_Test – 4”, “000TVA_Test – 5”, and “000TVA_Test – 6”. The posterior files were developed based on the previous files.
In Test-3, sheet “Template “, cell “L4”, “O4”, “R4”… were built as dropdown list using data validation. The list source is in the “Library” worksheet. There’s no problem so far.
Test-4 was firstly copied from Test-3. In this file I renamed the worksheet from “Library” to “Setting” and the link was broken from here. I can also fix the broken link in this file. (While I didn’t realize there was a broken link.)
In Test-5 I fixed the path, but every time when opening the file, the broken link still shows.
In Test-6 I’ve removed the data validations. The broken link is still there.
I tried to find solutions online. I tried common methods, cannot find anything in the files is still using links. I also tried the “findlink.xla” add-in, but it only worked for Test-4, and couldn’t find the link in other files.
Please help. Thank you!
I uploaded files here: https://onedrive.live.com/redir?resid=1A97736E0ABBAA41!113&authkey=!AF5wAd9rwUPnYyE&ithint=folder%2cxlsm
Thanks again!Hi,
Based on my tested the files downloaded, I found that Test-5 & Test-6 included the "A defined name that refers to an external workbook", Test-4 had not. (Please click Formula Tab>Name Manage, you'll see them.)
However, the Break Links command cannot break the following types of links:
A defined name that refers to an external workbook
A ListBox control with an input range that refers to an external workbook.
A DropDown control with an input range that refers to an external workbook.
http://support2.microsoft.com/kb/291984/en-us (It also applies to Excel 2010)
Thus, we'd better try the workaround： re-build the Test-5 & Test 6.

Idea Exchange License
You grant to Verizon and its designees a worldwide, perpetual, irrevocable, non-exclusive, sublicensable, transferable, fully-paid up and royalty free license to use (i) any ideas, expression of ideas or other materials you submit to the Verizon Community (collectively, "Materials"), and (ii) any and all intellectual property rights you have that cover or are in any way related to the Materials, whether in patent, copyright, trademark, trade secret, or any other proprietary right, in each case without restrictions of any kind and without any payment or other consideration of any kind, or permission or notification, to you or any third party (the “License”).
The License shall include, without limitation, the right to reproduce, prepare derivative works, combine with other works, alter, translate, distribute copies, display, perform, and sublicense the Materials, and own all rights therein in the name of Verizon or its designees, throughout the universe in perpetuity in any and all media now or hereafter known. The License shall also include the right to, directly or indirectly (including through multiple layers of persons/entities), make, have made, use (including by Verizon customers), sell, offer for sale, import, distribute, and otherwise dispose of any product or service that includes any ideas, inventions, embodiments, or other concepts that are part of the Materials, and use any and all intellectual property rights you have related to such Materials. The License shall also permit Verizon and its designees to use the Materials (including portions thereof), rerecord or modify any audio tracks or visual images you provide, rewrite any Materials you submit, and/or incorporate other materials, either created by Verizon and its designees or any third party, with the Materials you submit. Any such works shall be owned by Verizon and shall not be subject to your approval or payment by Verizon of any compensation to you.
You agree that the Materials you submit: (i) are original to you and accurate, (ii) do not violate and will not violate the rights of any third party or any local, state, national or foreign law, including any right of publicity, right of privacy or any other proprietary right, (iii) are owned by you and are not subject to any claim of ownership by your current employer, a former employer, or any third party, (iv) do not contain the confidential information of any third party, and to the extent they contain your confidential information, immediately become non-confidential the moment you submit the Materials to the Verizon Community; and (v) are submitted by you on your personal behalf, and not on behalf of your employer or any third party.

But information posted on the Verizon Community is not protected and can be easily obtained and used by others.
Moderators
Verizon reserves the right to manage the postings on the Verizon Community to provide an orderly presentation of this information. To effectively manage the Verizon Community, Verizon may designate employees or others to act as moderators and administrators for the Verizon Community ("Moderators"). These Moderators are the only representatives of Verizon authorized to manage the Verizon Community. Any Verizon employees who are not designated as Moderators or Employees are not authorized to represent themselves on the Verizon Community as Verizon employees. Authorized Verizon Employees are distinguished by the Rank of "Employee" and/or an official Verizon logo as an Avatar. Verizon is not responsible for content provided by any Verizon employee who is not designated as a Moderator or an Employee.
Community Monitoring
Users are asked to help Verizon keep the Verizon Community a valuable and enjoyable information resource for all participants by notifying us of any offending messages or other violations of these Terms. To advise us of such a posting, click the confidential "Report Inappropriate Content" link on the applicable post. Repeat offenders will be contacted by email and eventually banned from the Verizon Community. If violations are egregious in nature, we will contact the appropriate authorities.
Modification and discontinuance of the Verizon Community
Verizon reserves the right at any time to delete, modify, suspend, or discontinue, temporarily or permanently, the Verizon Community (or any part of the Verizon Community, including any postings) with or without notice. Users agree that Verizon will not be liable to users or third parties for any modification, suspension, or discontinuance of the Verizon Community.

Upon such termination, the user must immediately cease accessing or utilizing the Verizon Community and agree not to re-register or otherwise make use of the Verizon Community. Furthermore, the user acknowledges that Verizon reserves the right to take action -- technical, legal, or otherwise -- to block, nullify, or deny the user's ability to access the Verizon Community. The user understands that Verizon may exercise this right in its sole discretion.
Disclaimer of Warranties and Limitation of Liability
MOST OF THE CONTENT POSTED TO THE VERIZON COMMUNITY IS PROVIDED BY THIRD PARTIES NOT AFFILIATED WITH VERIZON. THIRD-PARTY CONTENT IS THE SOLE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE PERSON ORIGINATING THAT CONTENT. THE USER AGREES THAT VERIZON DOES NOT CONTROL, AND IS NOT RESPONSIBLE IN ANY WAY FOR, THIS THIRD-PARTY CONTENT. ADDITIONALLY, THE USER AGREES THAT VERIZON IS NOT LIABLE FOR, AND THE USER SHALL INDEMNIFY AND HOLD VERIZON, AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES, AFFILIATES, OFFICERS, AGENTS, AND EMPLOYEES HARMLESS FROM ANY CLAIM, INCLUDING REASONABLE ATTORNEYS' FEES, MADE BY ANY THIRD PARTY RELATING TO OR ARISING OUT OF CONTENT SUBMITTED, POSTED, TRANSMITTED, OR MADE AVAILABLE THROUGH VERIZON COMMUNITY, USE OF VERIZON COMMUNITY, VIOLATION OF THE TERMS OR VIOLATION OF ANY RIGHTS OF ANOTHER.

YOU EXPRESSLY UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT YOU BEAR ALL RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH USING OR RELYING ON THAT CONTENT. VERIZON IS NOT LIABLE OR RESPONSIBLE IN ANY WAY FOR ANY CONTENT POSTED ON OR LINKED FROM VERIZON COMMUNITY, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, ANY ERRORS OR OMISSIONS IN CONTENT, OR FOR ANY LOSSES OR DAMAGE OF ANY KIND INCURRED AS A RESULT OF THE USE OF OR RELIANCE ON ANY CONTENT. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, VERIZON AND ITS REPRESENTATIVES ARE NOT LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES (INCLUDING DAMAGES RELATING TO LOSS OF BUSINESS, TELECOMMUNICATION FAILURES, LOSS, CORRUPTION, SECURITY OR THEFT OF DATA, LOSS OF PROFITS OR INVESTMENT, OR THE LIKE), WHETHER BASED ON BREACH OF CONTRACT, BREACH OF WARRANTY, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), STRICT LIABILITY, PRODUCT LIABILITY, OR OTHERWISE, EVEN IF VERIZON OR ITS REPRESENTATIVES HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES AND EVEN IF A REMEDY IS FOUND TO HAVE FAILED OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE. THE LIMITATIONS OF DAMAGES SET FORTH ABOVE ARE FUNDAMENTAL ELEMENTS OF THE BASIS OF THE AGREEMENT BETWEEN VERIZON AND THE USER.
Miscellaneous
The Terms are a complete statement of the agreement between you and Verizon, and set forth the entire liability of Verizon and your exclusive remedy with respect to your access and use of the Verizon Community. In the event of a conflict between these the Verizon Community Terms of Service and either the Verizon Privacy Policy or the Verizon Terms of Use applicable to Verizon, these Terms of Service prevail. The agents and employees of Verizon (including Moderators) are not authorized to make modifications to the Terms, or to make any additional representations, commitments, or warranties binding on Verizon. Any waiver of the Terms by Verizon must be in a writing signed by an authorized officer of Verizon and expressly referencing the applicable provisions of the Terms. Your privilege to use or access the Verizon Community may be terminated by Verizon immediately and without notice if you fail to comply with any of the Terms. Upon such a termination, you must immediately cease accessing or using the Verizon Community. If any provision of the Terms is invalid or unenforceable under applicable law, then it is to be, to that extent, deemed omitted, and the remaining provisions will continue in full force. The Terms do not limit any rights that Verizon may have under trade secret, trademark, copyright, patent, or other laws.
*If you feel you have a solicitation that should be posted to the Verizon Community Forums, please ask for pre-authorization by contacting Verizon at: [email protected] or you can reach out directly by private message to any official moderator or admin in the community.Looks to me (and I haven't been advised on changes) that this is a customer protection. I don't know what the previous policy was, but this guarantees that if FiOS is no longer serviced in your area, you cannot be charged an early termination fee if there remains time left on your account. It seems obvious that you wouldn't be he held responsible in such a case, but this is just putting it in writing.

Hi,
I am sorry. I know this is a wrong place to post.
Can somebody tell me how to tell Oracle to fix BROKEN LINKS. Particularly we will find hundreds of broken links in all Portal related sites.
ThanksI don't think using a VPN is a viable long term solution, maybe a temporary work around!
If you want to try using one take a look at hotspotshield.com, please note I can't vouch for them, I only set up the VPN to see if the problem was local to the UK.
I used the details for securing an iphone connection (http://hotspotshield.com/clientless/iphone/get_started.php) to set up an L2TP tunnel directly in Mac OS X (i.e. not using their client). I'm not sure how to do this in windows XP or Vista.
As for a solution to the problem I'm not sure I believe fast.co.uk when they say they can't reproduce it. It looks like an issue between fast.co.uk and apple/akamai to me, since more than one fast.co.uk user is seeing it and it is a problem for both the windows and osx version of itunes.
I have included my traceroute info if fast.co.uk or apple need it to diagnose the problem.

I have updated my RH8 to RH8.0.2 and then fix all broken link and did what was advised.i got result, everything was fine, I was a happy man. Today when i open the same project for updation, i found again plenty of broken links and unused file in the same project.
Is there any permanent solution of the problem of broken links and unused file or i have to fix it every time when i open my project?
Plz help!!!
Br,
RahulHi Rahul.
Two things. Firstly some of the paths you have in your project are very long. In the example you have given we are seeing less than half the path. This may not be the problem but it maybe in the future. Secondly, as Peter has suggested, the problem maybe related to source control. Do you use it? I have heard of instances where (e.g. .FPJ) files cause issues.

Broken link in Mozilla but not in Safari
New Mac User here and I'm hoping someone is willing and able to help me out.
I've got a PHP based website that I modify from time to time with a Content Management interface. It is professionally important that it comes up clean and reads clean. It is hosted by the web hosting agency that I have my domain name residing.
I noticed recently that the some images on some pages show up in Safari (I just migrated everything over) but it shows up as a broken link in Mozilla. I just cleared the cache, history and cookies and refreshed the page in Mozilla and no image.
Is there a good explanation for this?
I could try this in Explorer on the Mac and I'm wondering if there may also be some difference in terms of how this page shows up on these three browsers in /Windows.
Is it possible that I need to check six versions 2 OS's and 3 browsers to verify that this page is coming up professionally?HI,
does this sound like total malarkey to you?
No, not at all. JPG is the commonly used format for images for the web.
Open an image file in Preview. From the menu bar click File / Save As. Select JPG.
As an example go here: http://www.google.com/images?hl=en&source=imghp&biw=1277&bih=566&q=flowers&gbv=2 &aq=f&aqi=g10&aql=&oq=&gs_rfai=
Right or control click any image then click Inspect Element. Type in JPG in the search field on the right, press return or enter on your keyboard. You'll see JPG highlighted.

CR2008 and VS2008, broken links in documentation
Hi !
I'm using VS2008 which is delivered with CR2008. I'm looking at the provided online documentation and find there are broken links. For example, on the page http://msdn.microsoft.com/fr-fr/library/aa288402(VS.71).aspx there is a link http://www.crystaldecisions.com/products/dev_zone/net_walkthroughs.asp for CR documentation. That link is now broken.
Where can I find documentation, tutorials and sample programs suitable for CR2008 version delivered with VS2008 ?
Thanks.
FPietteHello,
As you've discovered, the Developer Zone (Dev Zone) has been retired. Most of the content from that site was moved to the SAP Community Network (SCN) and the SAP Developer Network (SDN) that is part of SCN. There is an [SAP Business Objects Community|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/boc] on the SCN/SDN site.
You'll see a link to Crystal Reports for .NET in the vertical menu on the left. This is where you want to start. You'll also see a horizontal menu with links to Support, the SDK Library, and Code and Samples. These links will take you to additional information about Crystal Reports and BusinessObjects products.
I'd like to also clarify your understanding of the version of Crystal Reports that comes with Visual Studios 2008. VS2008 ships with a bundled version of Crystal Reports. It is called Crystal Reports Basic, and it's version number is 10.5. It is not Crystal Reports 2008. Crystal Reports 2008 is the current version of our stand alone report designer and is v12.x. CR2008 can be integrated into VS2008, but it is not the version you are using at this time.
When you're ready to deploy your application you can visit the [Crystal Reports for Visual Studio .NET Runtime Distribution - Versions 9.1 to 12.0|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/wiki?path=/display/bobj/crystalReportsforVisualStudio.NETRuntimeDistribution-Versions9.1to12.0] wiki for deployment information.
Sincerely,
Dan Kelleher
