CR2008 KeyCode problem/question

Hello everyone,
I have Visual Studio 2008 SP1 and I just bought the upgrade version of Crystal Reports 2008. I installed the CR2008 without any problems. Every time I open Crystal Reports 2008 by clicking in All Programs -> Crystal Reports 2008 -> Crystal Reports 2008 I get a windows asking for a valid KeyCode. Then I then opened the License Manager and when I try to add the KeyCode it says:
License Type
Selected KeyCode: Production
All Keycodes: Production
Report Creating API
Selected KeyCode: NO
All Keycodes: NO
If I click OK it says that the KeyCode is invalid
Then I installed CR2008 SP1 and I get the same problem. So I installed CR2008 SP FP13 but I'm still having the same problem.
Is this normal for the upgrade version? if not, does anyone have any idea on how can I get this working?
Thanks

Hi,
Please try to check the Crystal Report, install first the Crystal Report and if it running ok and the if the error appears, if not then install the Visual Studio,
regards,
Clint

Few problems/questions! (cover flow, album art...etc)

Ok I finally added my songs to my new IPOD (replaced my old one) and this is my first Ipod with video, color...etc. Its the IPOD Classic 80 GIG.
Well I am having a few problems/questions:
---Why when I hit "Get album art" does it ONLY get art for my videos? It doesn't get any for all 1,500+ songs! Is it because they aren't downloaded from Itunes? If so then why does it do it for the movies then? They aren't from ITunes either!
---With Cover Flow I updated the Album Art myself and have about 700 songs with art now. But I have two problems.
1. It won't display all 700 songs under Cover Flow!
2. It won't show them in order by song name! Can I change that?!? If not then how is it showing them by? What do I need to change?
---Are there any other video types supported besides that on Mpeg4 and that other weird type? If not why not? Its a pain to have to convert everything. Its almost not worth having this video IPOD if you have to go through sop much effort just to watch 1 stupid video. I mean I spent more money on extra programs now for music and videos then I did on the IPOD almost.
---Is there any way to transfer your music from one IPOD to another? I know some people say you can't but why? What about people like me who have music ripped from our own cds and NOTHING from ITunes? Its a REAL pain having to rerip all the cds, put them back on, rename all the songs, fix all the info...etc. Its taken me 4 days now. Apple needs to think about a "IPOD TO IPOD" music transfer kinda program.
---How do you get pics on the IPOD without having to keep them on your PC? I notice it has to SYNC them every time I have it plugged into the PC! But if I tell it NOT to sync pics anymore then they won't stay on the IPOD if turn that option off and unplug the IPOD. Theres got to be another way to add them.

Cover flow on the ipod can only be done (as far as I know) on Album by Artist Name. On iTunes you can change it around

IMOVIE08/IPHOTO08 TRANSFER PROBLEM QUESTION... HELP HELP HELP!!!

IMOVIE/IPHOTO TRANSFER PROBLEM QUESTION... HELP HELP HELP!!!
much like the email above, i am having trouble importing movies --all taken with my same nikon camera and uploaded to iphoto-- from iphoto08 to imovie08. i did a software update today and half the movies i wanted from iphoto, somehow, ended up on imovie. not the half i need to work with, by the way. just came back from christmas with the family. the first time my dad has seen my son. the first time my wife has seen my dad. lots of pictures. my dad wants copies. i got great ideas about making him a DVD... in imovie, i choose, "import movies", follow the steps, create a new event AND... no movie clips show up in my new event... BUT, when i click "mac HD" on my desktop and go the "imovie events", i see the movies is just supposedly imported to imovie as files and can watch them. doesn't help me much when trying to create a movie to send to my dad. no video is played in imovie. HELP HELP HELP!!! i went so far as to trash my 15 movies from iphoto because i thought perhaps the computer was seeing them as photos and not movies. right now my vacation movies are on my desktop. how can i get them to show up in imovie and start my project? HELP HELP HELP!!!

I think you have set your iPod to an option which everytime you connect it to itunes, it will delete all songs on it and replace it with songs currently in your library. What you need to do is click on the ipod on the sidebar, and on the bottem of the new page click the tick box that says "Manually manage music and video". That way you can delete old songs from your computer and they will stay on your ipod everytime you connect it. Hope that helps ^_^

5610 problems/questions

Okay, i have a 5610, firmware v9.4, and i have the foll problems/questions...
1) The calender and alarm systems sometimes refuse to work. In the calender, i put reminders, but often it never gives any alarm, even though i have set it to alert me at such-and-such time. The alarm too, simply doesn't work at times. any solutions?
2) On starting the phone, while updating the library, the phone temporarily gets hanged. After about 5 minutes, its back to normal, and the library is updated, but in those 5 mins i can't do anythinh. any solutions?
3)On connecting my cell to the comp, i usually use memory storage mode, to access the memory card in windows explorer, cuz its faster than pc suite. afer disconnecting, my phone often says "not enough memory on phone. update cancelled", referring to the music player library update. any solutions?
4)In menu>steeings>security>security level, what do the options do, i've not noticed any difference...

security level is to either set passwords for start up of phone ,keypad locks,lock code for phone this enable you to put a pin on the phone where if it was to get stolen the person would need a pin the activate the phone with another sim in it
If i have helped at all a click on the white star below would be nice thanks.

PLEASE report what you've already tried when posting problems/questions!

A lot of threads have a common theme:
(1) The first post describes a problem, or asks a question.
(2) The second (or third, or fourth) post suggests doing or trying something.
(3) The next response, from the original poster, says "Oh, I already tried that!"
Please, when describing a problem or asking a question, be reasonably detailed about the scenario, what you did, what results you got, WHAT YOU'VE ALREADY TRIED, etc.
Vague undetailed problems/questions, not describing the N steps you've already taken to try to resolve it, etc. just waste time and bandwidth all around!
Doug

Hi Doug;
If we are going to start of list of things NOT to do when posting a question, the one I always think is the absolute silliest is when they say I am having trouble with an application and never ever tell up what application they are talking about as if we have a crystal ball which is going to tell us what mythical application it is. Well it turns out generally my crystal ball is foggy just then so I have to ask what are you talking about here.

MSI 925XE BIOS 1.3 to 1.4 Upgrade problem/question

Hi,
Today I upgraded my board from BIOS 1.3 to 1.4 (successfully, *phew*). The BIOS page on the MSI site states that it fixes some problems, but nothing related to temperature sensors is mentioned:
http://www.msi.com.tw/program/support/bios/bos/spt_bos_detail.php?UID=635&kind=1
Now the actual problem/question is that with BIOS v1.3 my full load temp was roughly 65 degrees celcius (3.4GHz LGA775 CPU). Now with v1.4 my full load temperature shows up as 47-48 degrees celcius.
This of course doesnt seem like a bad thing at first, lower temp = good, but I cant help but wonder whether the temperature was being inaccurately shown in 1.3, or whether it is being shown wrongly now with 1.4. A drop in full load temp of about 18 degrees celcius sure raises some questions.
If anyone knows anything about this, Id appreciate any feedback. Also if there is some kind of tech support email address that MSI has (I couldnt find one on the site), could you please pass it to me, thanks.
I didnt post my entire system specs because really all the other components are irrelevant, I didnt change the setup in any way other than the BIOS. If I needed to post some addition info, tell me what it is, and I will.
Thank you.

Sorry that I didnt reply for a while. Busy weekend. Anyways...
What kind of chassis cooling? When as I said the case is open right now cause Im still experimenting with everything, so really its like no chassis at all for now. What kind of fan do I use with the XP-120? Its a quiet fan, I cant seem to find the box. If Im not mistaken, its the green version of this:
http://www.thermaltake.com/dcfans/led/thunderblade120.htm
And finally... Yes of course I was able to fit the XP120 on the motherboard, how else would I be running the comp hehe? BTW, I wouldnt necessarily recommend it to others though, the installation was very problematic. But still, its possible.

IPhoto '08 to iPhoto '11 Upgrade PROBLEM & Questions

Despite all the negative reviews at the App Store about iPhoto '11, I decided upgrade from iPhoto '08 so I could conveniently upload photos to FaceBook from iPhoto. (The FaceBook Uploader for iPhoto never worked for me.) I thought the ratio of negative reviews were unbalanced because people who are satisfied with the product have less motivation to write a review. Maybe I was wrong.
My problem:
I only bought iPhoto '11, not the iLife package, from the App Store. When I first opened iPhoto '11, I was warned that my library would no longer be readable by earlier iPhoto versions. No problem, I expected that. As I had somewhat over 15,000 photos in my iPhoto '08 Library, I was also notified that that it would take an hour or longer to rewrite the library. No problem, I expected that too. iPhoto first read my old library, then started rewriting. When the rewriting progress bar was just past halfway, iPhoto '11 suddenly quit and sent an "iPhoto Problem Report" to Apple. This has happened about 5 times now, both before and after restarting my computer. It might seem related to free disk space, but I just put in a new 750Gb hard drive with over 400Gb free. All my other specs also meet or exceed iLife's requirements.
My Questions:
1. Can anyone suggest what they think the problem is and how to proceed? I couldn't find a similar problem in the Apple Support Community.
2. If I can't upgrade, how do I go back to iPhoto '08? I backed up everything to an external drive using Time Machine before trying to upgrade. I know there's a iPhoto Library file in Pictures but there's also another file somewhere that contains the data for titles, events, comments and edits. How do I find it and how do I restore them to my MacBook?
3. Can I get my $14.95 back from Apple? I don't see a way to talk to Apple without costing me more than the $14.95
Any help will be GREATLY APPRECIATED!

What's happening is that some file (or files) in the Library are damaged in some wy and that's tripping up the upgrade. This file (or files) may not necessarily be photos but could be one of the background database files. Unfortunately there's not any real way of knowing.
Any time you upgrade or update an app or the OS you run the risk of exposing a problem that has bee hidden heretofore. That's why you make back ups.
Possible solution: Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.
Reverting means restoring your Librry from Time Machine and re-installing 08. It's not a big thing to do.
Contact App Store support about a refund. There's an email link on the right hand side of the app store window.

Several Problems/Questions with IPhone 3G SMS

Just bought the new Iphone 3G in the UK and I am rather disappointed. Besides the fact that I have to recharge the battery once a day , I could not find the following standard functionalities for text messaging. Maybe somebody knows if there is an easy fix:
1) I want my iphone to ring when I am called but I only want it to vibrate when I get a text message. I cannot see how to do that
2) I would like to have delivery receipts with every text I send. Any way to do that?
3) I cannot see how I can forward a text message
4) I cannot see how many characters I type in a text message. This leads to me sending 2 text messages just because I typed in 1/2 more characters
Any solution to the abov problems?
Many thanks

Regarding your first question, have you tried changing the New Text Message sound option to None, while leaving Vibrate On under the Ring settings? These options are found under Settings -> Sounds.
As per your other questions, I don't think there is support for those features currently.

Printer Driver problem/question....

Using a MacBook with 10.5.1. A Linksys wireless network hooked to a desktop PC and an Epson Stylus Photo R380 printer also hooked directly to the PC.
Problem: When the Mac is hooked up directly to the printer it works fine. However, when trying to print from it via the wireless network, the print comes out in a light, weak shade of black and colors.
In setting up the printer, I used the only generic driver available in the list provided in the set up window for this printer, a gutenprint v5.1.3.
Spoke to the Epson people who say that the problem is probably because I am not using the Epson driver established specifically for the OX 10.5.x...the v3.68. Therefore, I downloaded that driver and have it on my desktop.
However, I cannot establish the printer with this driver. I am using the IP setup option. I have used the "Other" option under "Print Using" box. Then, click on downloads, then select the Epson driver, then "Open", but cannot get the driver to appear either in the list of drivers under "Select a Driver to use" or in the "Print Using" box. Nothing happens when I use "Auto" either.
Question: How can I setup the printer with the Epson driver that I have downloaded ?
I've spent 3 hours trying to reslve this with bot Apple Care and Epson to no avail.
Appreciate any assistance. Thanks.

Not sure if this helps or not, but I also have a MacBook running 10.5.1 and an Epson R380 printer. I have the printer directly connected via USB to an iMac. I then use Bonjour to print to it via my Macbook on my home network.
With both the iMac and MacBook running Tiger, I had no printing problems at all. I had a terrible time trying to print on the R380 from the MacBook running 10.5.1 when the iMac was still running Tiger. It alternately wouldn't let me select the Epson driver for the printer, or when I could select it, the print settings options weren't available to do things like change the print quality or paper type. I downloaded the latest Epson drivers and made sure they were installed on both Macs. I also tried the gutenprint driver packaged with Leopard and I couldn't get it to print at all.
However, when I upgraded the iMac where the printer was connected to Leopard, it started to work perfectly from the MacBook.
I know with your set up you have the printer connected to a PC so this isn't exactly relevant. But I thought I'd confirm at least there does seem to be something in general funky with the Epson R380 drivers and using Leopard.

Photoshop CS4 Experience, Problems & Questions

Hi all,
i just installed my Production Suite Premium on the following System (fresh install, clean System, no other versions of Photoshop):
Intel E8500 Dualcore
Nvidia Geforce 9800 GX2 (Driver Version 178.24)
3 GB RAM
Windows XP Professionel SP3
Photoshop has its own Scratchdisk assigned with at least 50 GB free Space.
I know that the 9800 GX2 is considered to be a "Gaming-Card" but as a freelance artist i work for the game-industry on many occasions and I need a decent gaming hardware to test what I am working on. As far as I know, the card meets all requirements for CS4 and Nvidia tells me, that their GPU's are perfect for CS4. (wasn't a problem with any version before, I use Photoshop AND Nvidia-Cards since Photoshop 4)
Here are the things that bug me:
- Photoshop disables the OpenGL Features on random occasions, stating, that it has encountered a problem. This happens either in Two GPU-Mode or One-GPU-Mode.
There's no obvious reason for any errormessage, because IF Open GL is activated it seems to work pretty good, zooming and rotating works quite well and fast. I noticed, that the problem happens either after saving my file or when i open photoshop.
- Photoshop crashed on several occasions mostly concerning heavy transforming of multiple layers. It simply didn't respond anymore in the midst of the transormation-process.
My guess is, that this is also linked to the GPU/Driver. System-Memory is checked, GPU works like a charm in all other applications. CS3 has not once crashed in one year, so i guess it has to do with the changes made in CS4.
Strange thing is, that even with open GL deactivated, the above written problems occur. I would have thought, that with OpenGL dectivated, Photoshop would somehow become kind of CS3 again, but it seems, there had been to much changes to simply disconnect photoshop from it's new OpenGL interface.
Apart from these two Problems, Photoshop CS4 is doing ok. It feels kind of sluggish compared to older versions, but that might also change with some new drivers.
Sad thing is, that the rotate canvas feature and the extended moverange for images, the main reasons why i upgraded to CS4, are only working with
OpenGL activated. I really hope there will be a fix in the near future.
There are other questions concerning PS CS4's usability:
- The Scale-Brush Feature uses alt + right mouse buttons, what seems kind of strange when using a stylus (Even more when using a stylus without buttons like the wacom layout-marker).
I would prefer another combination of keyboard shortcuts plus stylus movement ctrl + alt for example. so far i have not found a way to remap the keys. Am i missing something? Or is this impossible?
- Is there a way to get window behavior back the way it was in CS3? The new way of handling windows is ok, but i liked the old one better. If i disable "floating windows docking" there's no way to maximize a window INSIDE the photoshop workspace. The maximize button on top of every window is right now completely useless because it maximizes the window AND gets rid of all the menus and palettes. I don't see why i want to do that.
That's it. I hope this is useful either for the guys at adobe or for other users. Every new Photoshop-Version has had its problems, i hope that these will just be dealt with like the ones before.
All the best,
Pickman

Photoshop CS4 does cause crashes. I can vouch for that too. When it happens, the first instinct is almost always to assume that something is wrong with the computer and start from there. Comments to this effect are prominent in many threads. It is also Adobe's prevalent approach. So people experiencing these problems will tend not to post on these forums. Statements like 'because there are only a few posts, a significant number of people are not experiencing [these] problems' are therefore unfounded. There simply has not been time yet for people to resolve potential hardware/system problems.
In my case, I started experiencing unexplained crashed with CS3 in July (see below) but it was only when Adobe admitted that they could be partly to blame that I posted my experiences (elsewhere) on this forum.
Anyway, to cut a long story short, I have installed Photoshop CS4 on a newly reformatted HDD containing a fresh clean installation of Windows XP/SP3, fully patched, with everything working hunky dory, and no legacy installations of Photoshop or other CS software to worry about. All the same PS CS4 keeps crashing. The symptoms are unexplained total freeze ups occurring at random. I may get several hours use, sometimes a lot less, before I am forced to reboot and start all over again. Certainly the ability to do any useful work is severely compromised, and yes, the first inclination is to blame the hardware or system installation.
The thing is I had been chasing a similar, probably related, problem with CS3 (possibly caused by cloning my system drive, see http://www.adobeforums.com/webx/.59b6bd8d/ ) while Photoshop was still activated, so I have had several months head start over anyone who may now be experiencing similar problems with CS4. As a result, Dell, whose support has been great throughout, have replaced just about every component under the hood of my PC, certainly everything that could be causing a problem. (GPU, CPU, memory, MB, PSU, disk controller, disk cables...). As a result, I am running a virtually brand new computer. Hardware and system problems have been all but eliminated. I have all the latest drivers for everything. It is virtually a brand new computer!
Yet PS/CS4 keeps crashing for no reason that can be established. Adobe have given me lots of homework to do to try to find out what affects it or remedies there are. It is all very tedious, but so far, nothing...
I am coming to the conclusion that there must be something intrinsically wrong with PS/CS4 that makes it incompatible with some systems and software installations, but not necessarily because of any fault with the latter. I have to say that, after initially trying to push me away, Adobe are being very helpful and clearly want (need?) to get to the bottom of this. The trouble is that when the system locks up, it is completely and utterly paralysed, so any diagnostic and error reporting systems are inoperative. This suggests something beneath or beyond Windows, and, if it is not hardware, this points the finger of blame squarely at the activation software, which uses rootkit technology. (Would this be the same on a Mac, I wonder?)
For the record, my system is a Dell Precision 370 desktop with Dell/Phoenix BIOS A08, 3.2GHz Pentium 4 CPU, Intel 925X chipset, 2MB ECC SDRAM, Nvidia Quadro FX3450 graphics, 2x Seagate 146MB Cheetah 5.5k disks (SCSI) in non-RAID configuration. From the limited experience I have had, it seems perfectly capable of running the software (apart from when it crashes, of course.)

Color profile problem/question.

These two exports of the same file were taken on my spouse's D300s, and are good examples of a profile problem I cannot seem to solve. This is the identical problem I also experience on the Nikon D700 and D3. The following was exported with the "Camera Standard" profile, and notice the yellow sun reflection on the door panels:
The following was exported with a xrite generated lightroom profile. Notice the better overall contrast, but also the horrendous unnatural yellow on the same door:
This difference causes all sorts of distortion in natural animal hair that contains any red-orange. I use these doors because they are such a stark example. Any attempts to correct with the WB will usually result in too much blue elsewhere. Also I have created many test profiles under many light conditions (both manually and from LR), and they all cause this problem in all three cameras. This is not a matter of one bad cameral, or one erroneously created profile.
I have two questions: Does this example show up well enough to see what I am talking about? If so, can anyone speculate as to the problem or solution? Even guesses would be appreciated since I am out of my own, and not expert in this sort of thing. Thanks!

George, thank you for this information. I have a couple of things for you to try and another question. The ColorChecker Passport color patches are small, so I would suggest trying to reshoot a calibration image with the ColorChecker Passport in the center and filling at least 1/3 of the picture width. In the image you provided the ColorChecker Passport is about 1/8 the image width and far left of center. I know, I know, it should not matter, but give it a try. This is what I'm doing to create camera profiles for all three of my camera bodies (Canon 300D, 600D, 5D MKII), and I have not had a single problem with "color matching" using this procedure AND what I will describe next.
Concerning white balance procedure you say:
Using the grey card of the same product placed just outside the subject crop.
I assume you are referring to the large 60% reflectance white balance card on one side of the ColorChecker Passport, but you do not mention how you set white balance. I suggest using the LR white balance eyedropper tool with the smaller 80% reflectance gray scale patch on the ColorChecker Classic target side. This is the 2nd patch from the left bottom in your picture right next to the brightest 90% white patch. Two reasons for doing this! A higher reflectance patch reduces the influence of camera noise in the image with the LR 5 x 5 pixels eyedropper tool. Here's a LR forum post with a heated discussion on these issues (or lack thereof): http://forums.adobe.com/thread/854734?tstart=60 The second purely empirical reason is the "Classic" target side provides me with more accurate white balance than using the larger 60% card. Perhaps this is a defect with my ColorChecker Passport target, but I don't know.
When setting white balance with the LR eyedropper tool I suggest taking at least five (5) samples of the 80% patch. I use the center, TL, TR, BR and BL corner areas of the patch. Do not use any reading that has a large variation from the others. Please remember that the eyedropper tool is sampling a very small 5 x 5 (25 pixels) area, and image noise or a target paint defect can give you a bogus reading. Write down the temp and tint for each of the five (5) readings, add them, and divide by five to get the "average" white balance temp and tint. Enter the temp and tint values manually into the white balance tool. I create a user preset for each profile which contains only the ColorChecker created camera profile and manually adjusted white balance settings.
I would also suggest you check the readings of all six (6) grayscale patches for neutrality (R=G=B) using your new camera profile and white balance settings. I have found in some cases using the 65% reflectance patch (3rd patch in) provides the most neutral “overall” white balance setting for the six (6) patches. This is despite the fact it contains more camera noise than the 80% patch next to it. Again, this observation is purely empirical – I am not writing a scientific thesis! It works for me and hopefully it will get you closer to what you want.
One thing I am going to do tomorrow is borrow a friends color checker to rule out the possibility mine is defective. It doesn't look defective, but the problem is so consistent.
This is a very good idea! Having worked in a manufacturing environment for over 45 years, trust me when I tell you defective product from even the largest company ends up in the consumer’s hands. Please let us know what you find.

CR2008 Product Registration Question

I have a fully registered CR2008 SP1 version. I just upgraded to SP3 and now when I launch CR it states it's Not Registered. If I upgrade to a more recent Service Pack I have to re-register? Please advise. Thanks.

No, you should not have to. See if you can find licensemanager.exe in c:\Program Files\Business Objects\BusinessObjects Enterprise 12.0\win32_x86. Run that. Remove the existing keycode and re-add your existing keycode - even if it is the same one.
See if that helps.

How to check UC560 FXO Port Not Problem Question

Dear All,
We are newbie on Cisco UC560.
Our customer use Cisco UC560, ESW-520-24P and Cisco SPA 502G and 508G for their branch office replace old traditional PBX. Cisco UC560 have built-in VIC2-4FXO and VIC2-4FXS.
Our customer PSTN line connected to UC560 FXO port (1 line PSTN).
We receive report from our customer that they cannot make a call to PSTN and receive call from PSTN that connected to UC560 FXO port (on physical FXO port LED Green turn on). When the problem happen our customer has restart UC560 or shutdown FXO port from CLI.
We have do some test to our customer UC560.
- Moving PSTN line to another FXO port (example: port from 0/1/0 to 0/1/1). The result is same (cannot make call to PSTN and receive call from PSTN)
Today, We have checked on our customer UC560 via show voice port summary and found that port0/1/2 and 0/1/3 OPER status is up wihout cable connected to this port.
Our question:
- What command on UC560 to make sure FXO port on UC560 doesn't have problem?
We attach:

We hope you can give us information about this.
Thanks For Your Attention

Hi There,
If you cannot find the Indonesian "Disconnect Supervision" you may get away with using Singapores "Disconnect Supervision" as your carrier networks are similar to each other

CR 8.5 to CR2008 migration problem

I want to move from CR8.5 to CR2008.   I downloaded the trial and some reports will not work. I get the following error:
Failed to retrieve data from the database. Details: 42000[TopSpeed Corp,][TopSpeed ODBC Driver] Expected lexical element not found: <identifier> [Database Vendor Code: 1015]
This only occurs on some reports and it appears to be the reports with more tables.
One one report I got a similar error "Unexpected extra token". I changed my join from INNER to LEFT OUTER and it cured the problem.   The same action does not cure the reports with the other error.
I read and performed SAP note 1212698 - How to resolve join syntax errors in Crystal Reports to no avail.
Any help would be appreciated.   For someone wanting to give SAP money you would think they would have actual support.   I am not impressed.

Ensure the report is using the correct connection information. For example,
the data source name, server name, database name, and user name are
correct.
In a database-client test tool, ensure that the fields, tables, and procedures
used by the report exist and that SQL queries can be executed against them.
In the Crystal Reports designer, verify that the SQL query, as shown under
the Database menu Show SQL Query option, does not contain syntax errors.

Got a few problems/questions

first, i can't buy apps. i'm with bell, and i can't buy an app for my bb style or the pb. i'm trying to use paypal but i get an error message saying it exceeds my modile spending limit. on the style i get an error number and sorry but try later. does anyone have experience with this?
second, is there going to be a universal search on the pb?
third, i'm looking for a waterproof camera that supports eye-fi (a wi-fi sd card for cameras that doesn't need mi-fi to transfer to android or apple) and can be charged via usb so that i can charge it and the pb with a usb solar panel or crank charger (ya, they put out 5V x 2.1A) while camping and transfer media to the pb for editing without internet... pending the release of a few more apps. any suggestions? (yes it's a very long trip, and no, i'm not returning to my own comp, i want to rely on the pb to update people. i'm also not a big fan of uploading every raw video i have to youtube for editing with my phone, since i currently use an olympus tough 3000 + tripod and a 16g micro sd and have had to do that already)

The first problem seems to me to be due to a problem with your PayPal account, especially since its affecting both devices. Check your PayPal account settings, or try creating a new PayPal account altogether. Of course the alternative is to try paying directly with a credit card as you should have that option.
Unfortunately, I'll be unable to help with the second part of your question, but hopefully someone else will be able to.
