Date woes

I have a query that returns records when i do not use a where
clause. I want to return records for a range of dates.
I have used between and >= and <= but no records are
returned. The dates are stored in an msacess table as long dates. I
tried with single quote both on and off the dates - the code
follows - thanks
jim
and btw the search on these forums returns an error message.
anyone else have the same results?

Or, best yet, <cfqueryparam...> tags with

  • DataGrid n000bie - headerText and data woes...

    Hi,
    So, I haven't worked with the DataGrid before until now; what I'm trying to do is grab the data from the first line of xmlDP, '<team>', and utilize those attributes as the column headerText(i.e.: 1. Chk, 2. Nam0rz, 3. Average, etc...). I can get that going, but I can't insert my data after I alter the col.headerText. via addColumn. See the comments in the code below for more of a description, but seeing how the DataGrid is a new paradigm for me, I know I'm doing this all wrong.
    If anyone can help me wrangle this code together in order to get the desired outcome, or explain how to better construct the below code in order to achieve the desired outcome, I would greatly appreciate it.

    Hi again kglad,
    Thanks for the response. I was trying specifically not to use ["checkBox", "name", "avg", "data", "data2"] and instead use the values of the attributes of <team>. Regardless, I've scrapped that idea for now, as that seems to go against the paradigm of the dataGrid(like I mentioned, I'm n00b to this component).
    The thing that's really got me stumped right now is this: When using the code below, the columns are constantly shifting when I compile(i.e.: the "name" column(or any other column for that matter) is never in the same place, they shift all over. Is there something you need to enable in the DataGrid to get consistent column placement results? What I'm expecting to see per my xml is:
    checkBox | name | avg | data | data2
    but instead I'll see:
    data2 | name | avg | data | checkBox
    or:
    data | name | checkBox | data2 | avg
    etc. The columns are never consistent.

  • Woes of the Z10, and now i want to use it as a backup phone for my contacts and data. Can I?

    Ok, this has been a real nightmare. I am an extensive user of BB since OS4. Wanted to try the new Z10, so I got myself a spanking new one. With my prior experience in switching devices, it would be a cinch. Transfer device over via blackberry desktop software, change the emails via BIS, and I'm all sorted out. 
    OMG dear blackberry. You made me jump through so many hoops I felt like a circus dog.
    Blacberry desktop doesn't work with the Z10. No one told me. I had to find out the hard way after not being able to detect the phone. wasted half an hour of my life. Downloaded Blackberry link. Transferred my contacts and everything over, couldn't be happier.
    Hurrah, thought the nightmare was done. It was just starting.
    Micro sim. Not everyone has a microsim cutter lying around. Great. Troop off to the shop. Figured after I get the sim cut, I could also transfer the emails via BIS server. So that's what I did. (oh by the way, having to buy a micro SD card was also a pain in the A but still acceptable). The BIS server detected the change in device so it disabled my emails. No problem. Until the technician told me at the store-sorry-BIS DOESNT WORK WITH Z10. Whaaaaat? Come on blackberry! Now its just normal emails, similar to that of iphone and samsung. Emails were your best feature. Ok, this I can stomach. What I cannot stomach is...blackberrry, you just killed your frequent traveller who needs international roaming. BIS emails and BBM was wonderful. I could get by travelling from country to country on 50mb a month unlimited. Apparently not anymore. I need a full fledged international roaming plan that will cost me an arm and a leg. This is insane. 
    Finally I had the Z10 working. I manually entered all my emails. ( i have 9 emails. Thank god they are all gmail based, especially for work, if not I would have ripped all my hair out). For the whole 2 hours, I looked at it and hated it. It was hard to use, I had to keep swiping up and to the right, sometimes it wouldn't swipe well, sometimes I couldn't tell if it was swiping or not. Neither did it help that Whatsapp hasn't even been sorted out on the Z10. Whatsapp is my life. My family's on it. My friends are on it. My suppliers and my customers are on it. Oh wait. Z10-well, you can download it from the appworld, but it doesn't install. Thinking it was a problem with the downloads, I kept at it..only to have the technician tell me, "sorry, Whatsapp not working on Z10, too bad"...anyway I made up my mind to go back to the Torch. So thinking it would be as simple as changing the hub ID on the Z10 and then reactivating the Torch. All will be well. Wrong. 
    I had to run to another tel shop to beg for a spare sim shell so I could stick the micro sim into it and have it back as a normal sim. Another 2 hours of my life later, I realise-changing the hub ID on the Z10 doesn't change anything. It doesn't mean you can just use the original hub Id and all systems are go on the first phone. Changing the hub ID means changing the original one. Argh. This was so frustrating especially when the BIS server refused to switch back to the old device. Ever clicked on detect device 200 times? Well that would be me. Eventually I figured it out. Change back to the old hub ID, security wipe the horrible thing, log in with the original hub ID and reset the device via BIS server. Finally, order is restored.
    Which leads me to my question. I am thinking of porting over my contact list and data to the Z10, and using it as another phone in another country. However I want to use a different Id from my Torch since it is considered a different device but with the same data. Will blackberry link allow me to do this, or will it only switch the data provided the hub ID is the same?
    Blackberry, hand over heart, I'll use the Torch till it dies ( I just changed out the nav pad cause it was completely worn out and would act wonky in sunlight- I call it the blackberry vampire version) and after that I'm off to another smart phone platform. You've made my life miserable. It was great while it lasted, but I'm going to be migrating to another platform eventually. Thanks for the memories.

    Hello,
    BlackBerry 10 has always been advertised as a revolutionary change from prior...not an evolution. And you have both now learned the hard way just how detailed that change is. As with so many things, the assumptions made from past experience with BB are not useful for this very significant change. Rather, research done prior to purchase is the most useful activity one can undertake.
    For BB10, BIS is not required. Indeed, on some carriers, having BIS on the account actually impedes some services for BB10. BB10 uses a full on-device ActiveSync client for email now. BIS-handled email is gone...as are "hosted" email accounts (though you can get 1-year of forwarding).
    Migrating of data from old to new involves many choices before beginning. For example, if you are not afraid of placing your Calendar and Contact data "into the cloud", the Z10 can excellently synchronize that against many different providers (many more than BIS ever could). Done correctly, one can attain full end-to-end OTA synchronization of Calendar/Contact data between Outlook desktop client (and perhaps others, though I've not tested), a Z10, a PlayBook, and more (for me, I've got 2 Outlook client instances, one Z10, one PB, and one Droid...all working beautifully OTA).
    Traveling is no more challenging than in the past...your specific device must be able to function on the networks upon which you wish to roam...this is no different from before (e.g., a GSM-only device simply cannot roam on a CDMA network). To compare specifics, I've found this useful:
    http://www.bbin.in/en/2013/03/03/4-types-blackberry-z10-models-fits-better/?utm_campaign=4-types-of-...
    There are many other differences...but please try to let go of what was before, for pretty much none of it applies anymore. BB10 is revolutionarily different from before.
    Good luck!

  • DV and FCPX woes - no stereo and incorrect date

    Man.. this never ends. FCPX just DOES NOT want to play nice with DV footage.
    I'm importing some miniDV tapes shot on a Canon GL2 in 2009. At the moment, I'm letting FCPX run through the tapes to create a "tape archive" so I can easily import things in my events later.
    The first issue I'm having is that FCPX is importing all the clips with the wrong date. Specifically, it repeatedly applies the correct timestamp but the date is set to a day earlier. When I look at the timestamp on the camera, the correct date shows up but in FCPX (whether imported direct from camera or from tape archive), the timestamp is a day earlier.
    The other issue is the stereo/mono problem others have been having. When I import clips from a tape archive, they show up as mono. When import directly from the canera, they show up as stereo.
    What the **** FCPX?! Does anyone else have any workarounds?

    The fact that FCX has trouble with DV media is a known bug. This thread contains some workarounds:

  • One record in the master Query, many in the child. Data Template Woes

    Hi Folks.
    Can't get my head around this and I wonder if anyone could shed some light.
    I have the following simple data template set up.
    <dataTemplate name="Invoice" description="Default Invoice" version="1.0">
    <parameters>
    <parameter name="P_INVOICE_ID" dataType="character"/>
    </parameters>
    <dataQuery>
    <sqlStatement name="Q1">
    <![CDATA[select invoice_id                  
                 from vw_invoice_summary
                 where invoice_id IN (:P_INVOICE_ID)]]>
    </sqlStatement>
    <sqlStatement name="Q2">
    <![CDATA[Select invoice_line_item_id
                from invoice_line_item
                 where invoice_id = :invoice_id]]>
    </sqlStatement>
    </dataQuery>
    </dataTemplate>
    When I set the Parameter to a valid invoice ID, I only get the following result. There should be two sets of data being returned. One set with the single parent record and the second set with roughly thirty records.
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
    - <INVOICE>
    <P_INVOICE_ID>16946</P_INVOICE_ID>
    - <LIST_Q1>
    - <Q1>
    <INVOICE_ID>16946</INVOICE_ID>
    </Q1>
    </LIST_Q1>
    </INVOICE>
    Where is the Q2 data set? Can anyone see what I'm doing wrong? Can anyone point me to the right section of the documentation? I have read and re-read the BIP Users Guide (Section 4) but I guess I must be missing something.
    Any help gratefully received.
    Many thanks.
    Simon

    Hi Ike.
    Quick question for you.
    I have the Groups defined and my template is working well with them.
    My final sticking point is the incorporation of a parameter.
    My template starts like this...
    <dataTemplate name="Invoice" description="Invoice">
    <parameters>
    <parameter name="invoiceid"/>
    </parameters>
    <dataQuery>
    <sqlStatement name="Q1">
    <![CDATA[select * from vw_invoice
                       where invoice_id IN(:invoiceid)]]>
    </sqlStatement>
    <sqlStatement name="Q2">
    <![CDATA[Select.................
    I am trying to call it using a SOAP Envelope containing this...
    <parameterNameValues>
    <item>
    <name>invoiceid</name>
    <multiValuesAllowed>true</multiValuesAllowed>
    <values>
    <item>18421,16946,19178</item>
    </values>
    </item>
    </parameterNameValues>
    The result being recorded in BIP Schedules is "Data not defined".
    What am I doing wrong? Any thoughts?
    Kind regards.
    Simon.

  • Sending print data..... Epson printing woes

    Connected to my Macbook Pro 17" (10.6.2) is my relatively (Important bit) Epson R285 printer. The other day it started to refusing printing full stop. I would send a print job, and get the external 'Sending print data....' and that would be it. I thought I was going mad, I reinstalled the drivers, deleted loads of preferences, ran Onyx a few times and nothing.
    At the same time, the 'low ink' light was flashing but like everyone else i just ignored this. I was ready to reinstall the OS and all my apps I was so desperate! I have VMWare Fusion running XP so I thought, worst case I can always print from there. Time to put the new ink in. Since it was a new printer it had those 'test, half-empty/half full cartridges' installed so €45 later, 3 new inks were installed.
    On a whim, I tried printing again from 10.6 and low and behold..... it printed! Now this raises a couple of questions:
    1. Why doesn't the print dialogue be more explicit in this situation: Hey 'I am not going to print unless you top me up' Granted there is a 'low ink' light and icon but not a 'bugger off, I'm not gonna print icon'
    2. Is this Epson forcing the user to buy new ink? I always use to print regardless what ink was missing, invariably I just needed to print and could handle an odd colour. Now, low ink means, 'go buy more ink and I shall print!'
    Anyway, anybody who has similar 'Sending print data...' print issues with an Epson printer, check you ink as it may just solve your printing problems!
    regards, chris

    By any chance are you using the "Gutenprint" driver for your printer? A poster in another thread noted that switching from a Gutenprint driver to a driver from Epson enabled the ink status capability.

  • JTable woes (JDK 1.5): Sorting and updating data

    So I've been working on this project for a while here that is essentially the front-end to a database system. The data itself is displayed in a JTable derivative. Column 1 is a JComboBox containing a list of companies, Column 2 is a JComboBox containing a list of employees, and the rest of the columns contain information specific to that employee.
    The data for each row is actually contained within a custom TableRowData object, which is used to assign listeners and such:
        private void initComponents() {
            this.organizations.setSelectedEnum(this.data.getOrganizationNumber());
            organizations.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
                public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
                    if("comboBoxChanged".equals(e.getActionCommand())) {
                        clearData();
                        try {                 
                            updateEmployees();
                            fireRowDataChanged();
                        } catch (SQLException ex) {
                            Logger.getLogger(VenosTeammateRow.class.getName()).log(Level.SEVERE, null, ex);
            pocs.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
                public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {               
                    if("comboBoxChanged".equals(e.getActionCommand())) {
                        try {
                            data = getEmployeeInformation();
                            fireRowDataChanged();
                        } catch (SQLException ex) {
                            Logger.getLogger(VenosTeammateRow.class.getName()).log(Level.SEVERE, null, ex);
        }Ideally, I would like a change in Column 1 to load the employees for the selected company into Column 2. This is working as expected.
    I would also like a change in Column 2 to load the information specific to the selected employee into the rest of the columns. This is also working as expected.
    The problem I am having arises when the data is sorted and THEN a change is made to either column.
    To sort, I am using a custom comparator that keeps track of the sort direction and current sort column.
    In the JTable derivative class, I have a method, sortByColumn(int col):
    public void sortByColumn(int col) {
            this.getColumnModel().getColumn(col).getCellEditor().cancelCellEditing();
            if(this.getSelectedRow() > 0 && this.getSelectedRow() < this.getRowCount())
                this.removeRowSelectionInterval(this.getSelectedRow(), this.getSelectedRow());
            DefaultTableModel mdl = (DefaultTableModel)this.getModel();
            comp.setSortColumn(col);
            Collections.sort(mdl.getDataVector(), comp);
            // Declare and initialize the header
            JTableHeader header = this.getTableHeader();
            // Reset all headers to their identifier values
            for(int i = 0; i < mdl.getColumnCount(); i++) {
                String identifier = header.getColumnModel().getColumn(i).getIdentifier().toString();
                header.getColumnModel().getColumn(i).setHeaderValue(identifier);
            // Find the sort order (for the sorting indicator)
            int sortOrder = comp.getSortOrder(col);
            // Store the identifier text temporarily
            String headerText = header.getColumnModel().getColumn(col).getIdentifier().toString();
            // Declare and initialize the sort indicator based on the sort order
            String sortIndicator;
            switch(sortOrder) {
                case TableRowComparator.ASCENDING:
                    sortIndicator = "  \u2191";
                    break;
                case TableRowComparator.DECENDING:
                    sortIndicator = "  \u2193";
                    break;
                case TableRowComparator.UNSORTED:
                    sortIndicator = "";
                    break;
                default:
                    sortIndicator = "  \u2193";
                    break;
            /* Set the Header to display the text with the indicator. Since
             * this will automatically set the Identifier to the same value,
             * reset it to the value we stored previously.
            header.getColumnModel().getColumn(col).setHeaderValue(headerText+sortIndicator);
            header.getColumnModel().getColumn(col).setIdentifier(headerText);
            // Make sure all the changes are painted
            header.repaint();
            this.repaint();
        }After the sort, the rows are updated and displayed correctly. However, for example with three rows, if by sorting row 1 and row 3 swap, changing the JComboBox in row 3 also updates the data in row 1.
    I'll be converting my code into a short self-contained program momentarily to post on here for a better understanding of what's going on. However, I decided I would post this just in case there were something painfully obvious I missed.
    Thanks.

    Thanks, you've been really helpful :) However, I realized while trying to copy my code to a smaller, self-contained form to illustrate my problems... I never changed the row number in my TableDataRow! So of course the update information, which was relying on the row number stored in the TableDataRow object (and not the actual row number in the model's data vector) updated according to the old row numbers.
    Basically, I coded myself into a corner :P
    Fixed it by making a new comparator to compare TableDataRow objects, and I stored an array of those objects in my custom table model. So the hard work is done on the TableDataRow objects, the data vector is cleared, and then each TableDataRow is added back as a vector.
    Not sure if this is the most elegant solution, but... it works.

  • Data migration woes

    I swapped out my 160G internal drive on my Macbook for a 500G. After formatting the new drive, and installing Lion, I was given the option to bring my files over from another drive. I checked all the options of which parts of my 'stuff' I wanted to bring over, e.g. users, files and data, etc. I plugged in my Time Machine backups disk, selected it as the drive to pull from, and initiated the process. Hours later when the process was complete, the new drive showed 122G space used, but ..I can't find my files ANYWHERE with a Finder window.
    I downloaded and ran GrandPerspective, which shows all my stuff from the backup DID transfer. When I hover over a file in the GrandPerspective interface, and read the path to that file it shows 'Macintosh HD' as the volume, but the new internal drive is named 'Mac 500'. Macintosh HD does not appear in the Devices list in a Finder window; Mac 500 does.
    Oh...I'm running version 10.7.3 of Lion, on a 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo Macbook.
    ...you have my gratitude in advance for your willing assistance.

    Good question, Andrew. No...only one user acct is showing, and none of the migrated data is showing under that user.

  • 6102i Data Cable Woes

    Okay, This all started 2 weeks ago. I was on amazon and found a CA-42 cable from BargainCell.com for dirt cheap. Since my phone is all but useless now (both screens mysteriously shattered in the middle of the night) I wanted to back up pics of my baby girl and others I'd hate to lose. Eagerly I bought the cable. When it arrived, I noticed it looked different than the one from the Nokia webstore. I tried the cable and version of PC suite it came with. My computer couldn't read the cable, nor could my phone, which gave the error "Enhancement not supported). After research I've come to find it's a clone from China. Furious I called them only to find that they don't open until nearly noon EST. I waited, called back and ripped the poor boy a new one. He passed me off to his boss, then on and on. I was passed off to 5 different people before the snooty person on the other end explained "Oh, well, it's not OEM. That's why it's not working." "Why sell a bootleg if it's **bleep**? Does the BBB need to step in here?" "Nowhere on the amazon page does it even mention the cable OEM" "Well, it certainly doesn't say it's a phony either. I want this handled TODAY!" "Well, if you send it back we'll refund purchase price" "No, you're sending me what I ordered. The real deal or bad publicity" "Yes sir, we'll send it out right away".
    Yesterday, the package arrives. It's a freaking DKU-2 cable (108382622101)that Windows says is malfunctioning. Drivers and software are all installed (except for the ones from microsoft.com which seem to be no longer available) and updated, uninstalled and re-installed, and nothing. Am I doomed to lose these amazing pics of my beautiful child? I mean, $50 is a bit steep for just a cable I'm only going to use once, I don't have multimedia messaging available on my Cingular (AT&T) plan (Already at $81/month for 2 phones).

    Aug 2007-long time ago. If you are still there I'm saying you probably found out that there are not any drivers for that phone to be found. Maybe there are, but I have been on this Nokia site for a half hour trying to find out if there drivers available. What a letdown this site is as Nokia is "state of the art?" Unbelievable. No gain in being angry, but I just wanted to tell Somebody that the cable you bought is the same one I got and it doesn't seem to be the problem. I keep getting the message that I need drivers for the phone and one page went from 6101 to 6103.

  • Data Pump Woes - REMAP_DATAFILE

  • Continual Mac woes (no question, just a rant)

    It's Tuesday, and I am having terrible problems with my Mac. But then, why should Tuesday be different from any other day of the week.
    Here is a typical day for me. The computer appears to be working OK. I need to watch a DVD for my work. I turn on DVD player, and put one in. The machine can't read the disc. It clicks and whirls, but the icon does not show up on the desktop. Meanwhile, so distressed is the machine that it freaks out. What was up until now was a fluidly operating machine suddenly reverts back to its old ways (i.e., its ways of two days ago). The hold ups and spinning pinwheels begin to eat of hours of my work day. (Remember the old days when computers made life easier?) The machine becomes sticky, gummy. Oh, I can move the curser and it seems to work for a second but then gets stuck in the dock, which explodes in icons and then freezes for five minutes. Yes. Five minutes.
    Would love to use Force Quit, but the cursor is spinning, and nothing is responding. Funny about that old Mac. You can't force quit Force Quit. I guess I need to leave it open all the time.
    Of course, FQ usually works on Safari. I have never just "quit" Safari. It always requires Force Quit, otherwise I can't turn off my computer. It stalls shut down.
    Now I have a DVD trapped in there and can't get it out. [But I just got an answer from another posting.]
    In the old macs, there used to be a pin hole you could stick a needle into ... can't find one on my flatpanel iMac.
    I bought my Apple flat panel iMac in August of 2002. Yes, I know that that is a long time to have a computer, but I am not rich nor attached to a corporation that can splurge on computers. The first weekend I had the machine, I had three kernal panics.
    Among the other problems I have documented are the following: the dock hiding itself unbidden and other features checking and unchecking themselves (Aug 2002); bus errors connected with OS 9 (Sept); some problems that inspired the tech person (Eric)) to talk me through deleting my user i.d., resulting in the loss of two months worth of e-mail (Thursday, 12 September); Preview problems (September); a bizarre box with an unmovable and undeletable red stop sign in it that no tech person or other Mac user I know had ever hear of (Monday 30 September); printing problems; computer won't shut down, numerous disconnection errors, which turned out to be caused by an OS X update (beginning December, 2002, or later); Kernel panics (Feb); computer won't shut down (March); Faxstexx problems, program won't allow me to set it up, finally just deleted the software (April); keys like "V" freeze and repeat endlessly (May 21); DVD Player freezes (May); Safari and Mail begin quitting unexpectedly (May); cursor begins to blink and fade out, plus odd sounds come out of the speakers, a constant error beeping (Sept 9); DVD Player problems (Oct 4).
    I called AppleCare while I had it about once a week (the total between August 2002 and the time it ran out was about 155 calls). Naturally, some of these calls are motivated by user error. On the other hand, many of the issues I have called about were unprecedented as far as the Tech person was concerned, such as the blinking mouse, the red stop sign, and the DVD Player woes.
    Things improved with Panther, but in Tiger many of the same old issues have returned.
    I have been having so many problems with my Mac that I once wrote a letter to the company asking when do I qualify for a new replacement machine. I never received an answer, but I felt better for about a day. Then I turned on my Mac again.

    The spinning ball of death as we used to call it is often caused by a lack of RAM, it is hard to be sure as I am not working on your machine, but sometimes things can be improved with additional RAM, it makes it seem like a whole new computer.
    A lot of your problems sound like stuff that can be fixed easily enough, and although frustrating things happen here and there with updates. It sounds like you are in fairly good spirits with it all, I would suggest just researching a bit more into maintenance you can do to help maintain the computer and educate yourself a bit more (sounds like you already have learned quite a bit along the way) and you will find a lot of these issues take you a few seconds to rid yourself of. I would start by making sure you are repairing permissions regularly and running the most up to date software. If a lot of problems persist, try creating a second user that is a "test" user to see if the problem is replicated on that user (don't delete your other one, but if you do find the problem not on the other user, you might have a corrupt user, however you don't have to lose all your emails there are plenty of ways to back it up and import it in, or even just bring the entire Mail folder from your library over to the new user). Another thing you can do if you find a lot of system problems is archive and install the OS, it takes a bit of time, but doing it overnight shouldn't be an issue, and you won't lose any of your stuff.

  • ICal woes - any help please

    Hi everyone, I am having some major iCal woes that I hope someone has the answer to.
    Ok this is how I handle my workflow. I have numerous calendars such as "call", "viewing", "meeting", "work misc", "personal" etc. All colour coded and I use the month view as standard.
    Under SL I would double click the day I add an event go through the boxes (name, location, time, etc) click save and job done.
    Now under Lion when I double click a day I get an event box but only the header. So I have to type the header hit return then double click on the event again to get the box up so I can assign the event the right time and calendar to use. This is taking twice as long as it did before under SL and is a pain when you have a client on the phone. Am I missing something here? Why is it now so hard? - and I have tried that quick entry business but it doesn't work for me, I simply want the whole calendar entry box when I double click in month view.
    Next problem is all new events go in as a all day event. Again another click I didn't need to do in SL. Then untick all day and enter a time LionCal doesn't set the end time 1 hour later anymore it sets it hours later for me, sometimes into the next day so I have to click into the date box and type the end date, again a massive slow down in my workflow.
    Finally and most annoyingly in month view I cannot for the life of me get a 12 hour clock with AM/PM. I checked my international page in sys prefs and all is ok but LionCal is not playing ball.
    Any help would be appreciated as I love iCal and run my life with it over MobileMe.

  • Constant Your Set Top Box Has No Data Connectivi​ty/Poor DVR Performanc​e

    For the past few months I have been dealing with very poor performance out of my multi room DVR. Often in the middle of watching shows, the DVR will just disconnect and look for the hub which means rebooting the cable box and a constant stream of, “your set top box has no data connectivity” messages. This has elevated to beyond a nuisance. I have been in contact with Verizon Fios' live chat multiple times however they fail to solve the problem. The picture on the DVR is extremely choppy as it is having difficulty streaming and then it just drops and once again searches for the hub.
    I have also recently upgraded to the 75/35 internet and the router has been cutting out and resetting at least twice an hour ever since. I love Verizon Fios and have recommended it to many of my friends who have also signed up. I am just looking for a solution to my DVR and internet woes.

    You need to have a tech come to your house. You could have bad light at the ONT., bad router, bad ONT or bad coax somewhere.

  • Hp Warranty Woes & Hard Drive Heartache

    HP – Warranties Woes & Hard Drive Headaches.
    Dear Internet Community (I.C)
    I need your help.
    I would like to know if I’m being unreasonable in my expectations or is Hewlett Packard (HP) not living up to its both moral & legal obligations as a good corporate citizen & what it alleges to be – a Customer Focused Global Computer Services company.
    Apologies if this is a little long winded but in the interests of fairness I need to put as many HP comments in as possible – to give you a clear picture.
    So bear with me, you will not be disappointed & there are a couple of questions you might like to answer & feedback to the appropriate parties.
    Keep in mind at all times we are talking about approximately a $200 (NZD) fix – less than the lost profit on one lost sale for an HP PC ( you might think twice about HP products after reading this).
    There are two parts to this problem :
    Part 1 :
    I purchased an HP Touch Smart a few years ago, I registered the product & warranty with them & over the years have received have received numerous emails stating “buy this, upgrade now”.
    But I don’t recall ever receiving an “WARNING – Critical Failure Issue (CFI) apply attached patch immediately” email while under warranty. Why is this relevant?
    Ø Seagate makes Hard Drives – in this case a Barracuda 7200.11
    Ø HP buys said HD’s from Seagate
    Ø Seagate finds a problem with firmware in HD’s & advises HP & supplies a fix
    Ø HP knows which Customers have these HD’s, because you know what goes into your machines – right ? - see below
    Ø HP FAILS to send email to Customers with the fix (a simple email with attachment would solve problem) or issue recall.
    Ø HP even offers previously to fix problem FOC & puts fix on its Website - but only if the Customer knows somehow of the problem.
    Ø Should the Customer intuitively& telepathically know of problems in HP Products in advance before it fails, because of course HP is not telling their Customers.
    Problem or Outcome: My HD has bricked itself & will not operate as I never received notice of the firmware fix at any time either in or out of warranty.
    Paul Boshoff - G M -Personal Systems Group- HP NZ (PB- GMPSG) says
    “It would be very difficult, if not impossible, for any computer vendor to proactively notify it’s customers of component-level updates”
    “Failures of the kind you’ve experienced are usually related to a specific batch of serial numbers and often those component serial numbers aren’t available when the user is registering that particular computer.”
    Now let me know if you think I’m wrong, but it sounds like HP does not know what goes into its machines or at the very minimum does not keep track of this.
    HP, a Global Computer Services company cannot possibly be expected to track what goes into its machines. HP apparently does not record or match the serial number of the HD with the machine it goes into.
    If Ford & Toyota can track & record what tyres go on which make & model of their cars which are in the millions each year & can recall cars dating back 8-10 years just case of a manufacturers component malfunction why can’t HP link & record the HD details.
    I can just hear it now “I’m sorry we don’t know which engine we put in your car”.
    And let’s be real clear here – we are not talking about some small screw at the back of a PC – Along with the CPU & the RAM, the Hard Drive is pretty much up there in the top 3 of important components of any computer.
    I.C – Do you feel
    ü That fills you with confidence in HP products & services ?
    ü Should HP be required to tell its customer of CFI’s with its products – particularly while under warranty?
    ü Has HP tried to limit their liability & cost by directly NOT telling Customers of CFI’s while under warranty?
    Part 2 :
    When your HD bricks itself – apparently all is not lost – some very clever person has found a solution so you can get the HD going long enough to apply the firmware fix & then your HD is a good as new – Here is the link that spells it out with pics http://www.overclock.net/t/457286/seagate-bricked-firmware-drive-fix-with-pics)
    You’ll see the relevance of this shortly.
    After much messing about I received the following email from PB- GMPSG : “I have escalated your issue and have just received the go-ahead to repair your unit at our cost. We will be utilizing our own, authorized service provider to re-install the original hard-drive and to run the software fix on that unit.” (This guy most likely earns a six figure salary & isn’t able to sign off $200 fix).
    NOTE : it does not limit or restrict what type of fixes will be used & also at this time HP was aware of both the Seagate fix & above fix.
    I delivered the PC & bricked HD into the HP Authorised Repair Centre (ARC) as requested –their ticket instructions read “do firmware update…HP to incur costs. NO COST to customer”.
    Obviously it’s not rocket science but you need the HD going before you can apply any firmware fix including this one – HP knew that to get the HD going they would need a special fix to enable them to apply the Seagate fix.
    After all this is not an isolated case & I did point out to HP that they would need the fix I supplied (or something similar HP approved or designed if that made them more comfortable) prior to their offer of fixing the HD.
    HP said their ARC’s had all the right software for fixing their machines. In addition I have been told on several occasions, the ARC’s are the bee’s knees, the cat pajamas, the whiz kids of the PC service world “The first port of call for the repair centre agent is to download all the latest service advisory notices and updates. This is a very fundamental part of the repair process and one that we spend a great deal of time emphasizing with our authorised repair centres” Keep this in mind.
    A week later I received a call from Peter Gasporaratos, HP CS Melbourne (poor guy – caught in the middle) & stated “there is nothing else we can do for you”. When I asked if they had applied the fix he said “its not our responsibility.. its not part of our guidelines.. the ARC does not practice unauthorised methods..& this ARC will not go down this path”
    Ironically the day before, Barry from the ARC said “we can attempt it, but we will charge you too”. So HP’s own ARC will do it, but there will be a cost – but hang on a minute, didn’t PB- GMPSG say “to repair your unit at our cost. We will be utilizing our own, authorized service provider to re-install the original hard-drive and to run the software fix on that unit” & HP CS put on the instructions “HP to incur costs. NO COST to customer”.
    I.C – Do you feel
    ü HP have said they will fix it at NO COST to me, regardless of what the fix entails ?
    ü Should HP honour this commitment ?
    ü Would you do business with a company that says one thing & does another & does not honour its commitment ?
    ü That given the bricking fault did not need to happen if HP had been proactive in letting their customers know of the firmware issue & this is not an isolated case– shouldn’t they then be responsible in finding or developing a fix for getting the HD going long enough to apply the firmware fix if they are not going to use other recognised fixes.
    Abstract
    So that’s it – what do you think I.C. ?
    Would you want HP computers & servers controlling the Traffic Lights, Air Traffic Control, Patient records & Medications at Hospitals knowing that HP will not tell these organisations that there is CFI with their products & they could suddenly lose everything. All dead while they try to find a back up computer with all the data – god forbid if President Obama’s “football” is powered by an HP – Nuclear War before we know it.
    But seriously – I would love your feedback – Am I being unreasonable in asking them to honour their commitment for a $200 fix ?
    And of course HP being a Customer Focused Global Computer Services company, would welcome your feedback.
    Here are a couple of the players contact details who would love to hear from you :
    ü Keith Watson – CEO –HP NZ -I initially contacted him & he thanked me for bringing it to his attention, then nothing.
    Email : [email protected]
    ü Paul Boshoff - G M -Personal Systems Group- HP NZ – well of course you now know who he is now – he would love feedback.
    Email : [email protected]
    ü Jessica Rangi – She’s the Spokes person/PR/Marketing for HP NZ & has just help launch HP new PC range in NZ – She would love your feedback as it might impact on her marketing & she is quoted as having helped out in warranty situations before & has worked at HP head office.
    Email : [email protected]
    ü Meg Whitman - President and Chief Executive Officer of HP Global
    Email : [email protected]
    They would all like to hear from you J
    I.C
    J Thanks for being patience & reading through to the end – now it’s up to you
    L buy HP Products & Services or not.
    L Do HP deserve your hard earned money if you now believe they aren’t going tell you about problems with their Product & Services.
    Be kind to one another & take care.
    Regards
    Smithie
    P.S - I sent this blog to HP for fact & quote checking prior to uploading (I gave them over a week to reply) – the silence was deafening from HP.

    When requesting assistance, please provide the complete model name and product number of the HP computer in question. HP/Compaq makes thousands of models of computers. Without this information it may be difficult or impossible to assist you in resolving your issue.
    The above requested information can be found on the bottom of your computer or inside the battery compartment. Please do not include your serial number. Please enter the model/product information into HP's Online Consumer Support page and post it here for our review.
    I doubt the hard drive would be covered by buying an extended warranty after the fact. There is also no reason to buy a new hard drive from HP. Almost any 2.5" hard drive on the market will work in your computer. You will need your personal HP Recovery Disc set to return the computer to a factory like state. If you didn't create these discs, you will need to order a set.
    If you have any further questions, please don't hesitate to ask.

    The question is no longer if, but when you'll move your backup-and-recovery storage to the cloud.
    As a genius IT pro, you know you can't afford to ignore cloud as a solution for your backup-and-recovery woes: exponential data growth, runaway costs, legacy systems that can't keep pace. Public or private clouds offer near-infinite scalability, deliver dramatic cost reductions and promise the unparalleled efficiency you need to compete in today's 24/7/365 marketplace.
    Moreover, an ESG study found that backup and archive rank first among workloads enterprises are moving to the cloud.
    Okay, fine. But as a prudent IT strategist, you demand airtight security and complete control over your data as well. Good thinking.
    Hybrid Cloud Strategies Are the Future
    Enterprises, large and small, are searching for the right blend of availability, security, and efficiency. The answer lies in achieving the perfect balance of on-premises, private cloud, and public services to match IT and business requirements.
    To realize the full benefits of a hybrid cloud strategy for backup and recovery operations, you need to manage the dynamic nature of the environment— seamlessly connecting public and private clouds—so you can move your data where and when you want with complete freedom.
    This begs the question of how to integrate these cloud resources into your existing environment. It's a daunting task. And, it's been a roadblock for companies seeking a simple, seamless, and secure entry point to cloud—until now.
    Enter the Game Changer: NetApp AltaVault
    NetApp® AltaVault® (formerly SteelStore) cloud-integrated storage is a genuine game changer. It's an enterprise-class appliance that lets you leverage public and private clouds with security and efficiency as part of your backup and recovery strategy.

    Four Ways Your Peers Are Putting AltaVault to Work
    How is AltaVault helping companies revolutionize their backup operations? Here are four ways your peers are improving their backups with AltaVault:
    Killing Complexity. In a world of increasingly complicated backup and recovery solutions, financial services firm Spot Trading was pleased to find its AltaVault implementation extremely straightforward—after pointing their backup software at the appliance, "it just worked."
    Boosting Efficiency. Australian homebuilder Metricon struggled with its tape backup infrastructure and rapid data growth before it deployed AltaVault. Now the company has reclaimed 80% of the time employees formerly spent on backups—and saved significant funds in the process.
    Staying Flexible. Insurance broker Riggs, Counselman, Michaels & Downes feels good about using AltaVault as its first foray into public cloud because it isn't locked in to any one approach to cloud—public or private. The company knows any time it wants to make a change, it can.
    Ensuring Security. Engineering firm Wright Pierce understands that if you do your homework right, it can mean better security in the cloud. After doing its homework, the firm selected AltaVault to securely store backup data in the cloud.
    Three Flavors of AltaVault
    AltaVault lets you tap into cloud economics while preserving your investments in existing backup infrastructure, and meeting your backup and recovery service-level agreements. It's available in three form factors: physical, virtual, and cloud-based.
    1. AltaVault Physical Appliances
    AltaVault physical appliances are the industry's most scalable cloud-integrated storage appliances, with capacities ranging from 32TB up to 384TB of usable local cache. Companies deploy AltaVault physical appliances in the data center to protect large volumes of data. These datasets typically require the highest available levels of performance and scalability.
    AltaVault physical appliances are built on a scalable, efficient hardware platform that's optimized to reduce data footprints and rapidly stream data to the cloud.
    2. AltaVault Virtual Appliances for Microsoft Hyper-V and VMware vSphere
    AltaVault virtual appliances are an ideal solution for medium-sized businesses that want to get started with cloud backup. They're also perfect for enterprises that want to safeguard branch offices and remote offices with the same level of protection they employ in the data center.
    AltaVault virtual appliances deliver the flexibility of deploying on heterogeneous hardware while providing all of the features and functionality of hardware-based appliances. AltaVault virtual appliances can be deployed onto VMware vSphere or Microsoft Hyper-V hypervisors—so you can choose the hardware that works best for you.
    3. AltaVault Cloud-based Appliances for AWS and Microsoft Azure
    For organizations without a secondary disaster recovery location, or for companies looking for extra protection with a low-cost tertiary site, cloud-based AltaVault appliances on Amazon Web Services (AWS) and Microsoft Azure are key to enabling cloud-based recovery.
    On-premises AltaVault physical or virtual appliances seamlessly and securely back up your data to the cloud. If the primary site is unavailable, you can quickly spin up a cloud-based AltaVault appliance in AWS or Azure and recover data in the cloud. Usage-based, pay-as-you-go pricing means you pay only for what you use, when you use it.
    AltaVault solutions are a key element of the NetApp vision for a Data Fabric; they provide the confidence that—no matter where your data lives—you can control, integrate, move, secure, and consistently manage it.

    Putting AltaVault to Work for You
    Four common use cases illustrate the different ways that AltaVault physical and virtual appliances are helping companies augment and improve their backup and archive strategies:
    Backup modernization and refresh. Many organizations still rely on tape, which increases their risk exposure because of the potential for lost media in transport, increased downtime and data loss, and limited testing ability. AltaVault serves as a tape replacement or as an update of old disk-based backup appliances and virtual tape libraries (VTLs).
    Adding cloud-integrated backup. AltaVault makes a lot of sense if you already have a robust disk-to-disk backup strategy, but want to incorporate a cloud option for long-term storage of backups or to send certain backup workloads to the cloud. AltaVault can augment your existing purpose-built backup appliance (PBBA) for a long-term cloud tier.
    Cold storage target. Companies want an inexpensive place to store large volumes of infrequently accessed file data for long periods of time. AltaVault works with CIFS and NFS protocols, and can send data to low-cost public or private storage for durable long-term retention.
    Archive storage target. AltaVault can provide an archive solution for database logs or a target for Symantec Enterprise Vault. The simple-to-use AltaVault management platform can allow database administrators to manage the protection of their own systems.
    We see two primary use cases for AltaVault cloud-based appliances, available in AWS and Azure clouds:
    Recover on-premises workloads in the cloud. For organizations without a secondary disaster recovery location, or for companies looking for extra protection with a low-cost tertiary site, AltaVault cloud-based appliances are key to enabling cloud-based disaster recovery. Via on-premises AltaVault physical or virtual appliances, data is seamlessly and securely protected in the cloud.
    Protect cloud-based workloads.  AltaVault cloud-based appliances offer an efficient and secure approach to backing up production workloads already running in the public cloud. Using your existing backup software, AltaVault deduplicates, encrypts, and rapidly migrates data to low-cost cloud storage for long-term retention.
    The benefits of cloud—infinite, flexible, and inexpensive storage and compute—are becoming too great to ignore. AltaVault delivers an efficient, secure alternative or addition to your current storage backup solution.

    You didn't say what phone you have - but you can set it to update and backup and sync over wifi only - I'm betting that those things are happening "automatically" using your cellular connection rather than wifi.
    I sync my email automatically when I have a wifi connection, but I can sync manually if I need to.  Downloads happen for me only on wifi, photo and video backup are only over wifi, app updates are only over wifi....check your settings.  Another recent gotcha is Facebook and videos.  LOTS of people are posting videos on Facebook and they automatically download and play UNLESS you turn them off.  That can eat up your data in a hurry if you are on FB regularly.
