You could always add it
And slurpy for good measure.

Hi why when i plug in my ipad to my macbook the apps wont update that need updating on macbook and ipad

Hi i am baffled as to why when i have apps sitting in my Itunes on the Macbook that need updating used to start straight away once i plugged in the ipad or iphone ,now all updates on ipad or iphone i do manually same with the macbook .Any help would be most grateful thanks guys..

Hi, I had the same problem. I finally figured it out. Plug in the USB cord to your ipad, but beofre plugging it into your computer make sure your ipad is not in the locked or sleep mode. Once I did this, my photos showed up and started downloading. Hope that helps you!

When i go to the app store to update the one app that needs to be updated, the screen is blank. It used to list all the apps that need updating and have a button called update all. Now nothing. Just a blank screen.

There's been a problem with this all day. Seems to be a server problem - wait a day and try again, or use itunes on the computer to update, that works.

TS1702 Thanks. I had 6 Apps that needed updating on my iPad original. I hit "Update All" and that ruined four Apps. They won't download the updates, nor will they launch and be useable either. I lost Splashtop 2, Bible!, and Mercury Browser! Suggestio

Am I the only fool who clicked on update all when my iPad told me updates were available? Two updates loaded just fine, but the other four never updated and now lie useless and grayed out. I had 6 Apps that needed updating on my iPad original. I hit "Update All" and that ruined four Apps. They won't download the updates, nor will they launch and be useable either. I lost Splashtop 2, Bible!, and Mercury Browser! Suggestions?! I don't want to ruin my access to Splashtop 2 for sure.

I fixed it by going through a few steps using iTunes while hooked to my computer.

What are the rules for AUR packages that rely on Alien bins [solved]

Hi,
I use ArchLinuxArm and want to create an AUR package that gets binaries from, lets say Fedora ARM, extracts them and modifies the config files in order to make it compatible with the Arch way of Linux. Of course, the PKGBUILD I am going to write will limit installation on the appropriate arcitecture, e.g. armv7h, then.
Is this generally allowed or will my package be deleted after submission to AUR?
Best,
RaumZeit

AUR queries should be posted to the aur-general mailing list.
As indicated in the thread linked by Karol above, it is permitted to append unsupported architectures to the arch array of a PKGBUILD that builds on officially supported architectures. That does not necessarily mean that we will allow packages that only build on unsupported architectures. This should be discussed on the mailing list. I have a vague memory of this coming up before and I think the consensus was that such packages would not be supported, but that consensus may have changed. Personally, I do not see a problem with such packages right now and I expect official supported to be extended in the future, so I am in favor of allowing them.
Packages that install pre-compiled binaries should be distinguished from normal packages with a "-bin" suffix. Such packages are permitted as long as they do not violate applicable licenses.

HT4623 Have just updated to the latest version of ios6 on my iPhone 4S and now I can't see the apps that need updating. Is showing 8 but just left with blank screen.

Have just updated to the latest version of ios6 on my iPhone 4Sand now I can't see the apps that need updating. Is showing 8 but just left with blank screen- how do I fix this?

Look for the little Flag button in the lower left corner.

I have 4 applications that needs updating, but when downloading it fails. what can I do to update.

Are you trying to update only that one app or more that one app (via Update all)? You have to log into the account that purchased an app to update an app. If you have apps purchased by more than one account you have to update tem one at a time until the remaining apps were purchased from one account.

I have 5 apps that needed updating. I updated and now apps are "frozen" in updating stage. They won't even delete after I hit delete button. What to do?

Reset time, press and hold both the power and home buttons for 10-15 seconds till the Apple logo appears. Release both buttons. Wait 15-20 seconds till your iPad starts on it's own. Check the downloads.

AUR package that depends on pyglet

I maintain the PsychoPy package (https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/psychopy/). PsychoPy is an applicaiton written for python2 and an upcoming release will depend on the 1.2 alpha version of pyglet. The community repository already has python2-pyglet (https://www.archlinux.org/packages/comm … n2-pyglet/), but it is version 1.1.4 of pyglet. The AUR has pyglet-hg (https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/pyglet-hg/) and python-pyglet-hg (https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/python-pyglet-hg/) which both pull in the correct version of pyglet, but for Python3.
I would be willing to maintain a python2-pyglet1.2alpha (or possibly python2-pyglet-hg) package, but not sure if adding another pyglet package to the mess is really beneficial. Further, the same source of pyglet is used for both python2 and python3, so it seems like maybe the current AUR package should be a split package. Finally, all the packages "provde" pyglet and hence conflict with each other, but it is not clear to me why a python2 package should conflict with a python3 package. Is there a reason for this?

You can specify in dmenu-hg's PKGBUILD the minimal version of libdraw-hg's pkgver
depends=(..."libdraw-hg>=1000"...) (for example)
so that makepkg, if it sees an older version installed (for example, 999) it will demand a newer one, so the user will update libdraw-hg

My iPad shows that I have apps that need updated but apps do not update.

My App Store shows I have apps needing updated but nothing is there to update. I have signed out, shutdown & restarted but still nothing. This worked last time, but now same issue again.

Many people are having this problem for the last couple of days. This is a problem that Apple has to fix. If you look around the forum, you will see many, many discusssions about this and they have been going on for a few days.
According to Fly150 in another discussion, this is a workaround - for the time being.
If you want to update the Apps while waiting for Apple to fix Updates:
1. Go to App Store
2. Select Purchased
3. Select All
4. Scroll down to find the Apps showing update
5. Select update on the Apps
This should update the Apps and get rid of the update count in App Store.

Wanted: script to list uninstalled optdepends and packages that need t

I had a thought today that a script to list package that are optdepends but not installed could be quite useful... I have not written one, but thought it would be good for pacman-contrib if someone wanted to contribute.
Example output:
tk - optional for:
ruby - for Ruby/TK
python - for IDLE, pynche and modulator
fakeroot - optional for:
pacman - for makepkg usage as normal user
So get script writing! Preferably in bash or perl (which the current pacman-contrib scripts use).

I cheated and used my perl ALPM module. I think the logic is sound, though, and you can replace the module calls with backticking pacman (preferably functions wrapping them). I planned to but ran out of time.
#!/usr/bin/perl
use warnings;
use strict;
use ALPM ( dbpath => '/var/lib/pacman/' );
my %reverse_depends;
my $db = ALPM->register_db;
OPT_SEARCH:
for my $pkg ( @{$db->get_pkg_cache} ) {
my $pkg_optdeps = $pkg->get_optdepends;
next OPT_SEARCH unless @$pkg_optdeps;
my $depender = $pkg->get_name;
my %reason_for = map {
/\A([^:]*):\s*(.*)/ ? ($1 => $2) : ($_ => '')
} @$pkg_optdeps;
DEP_LOOP:
for my $dependee ( keys %reason_for ) {
next DEP_LOOP if $db->get_pkg($dependee); #ignore installed
$reverse_depends{$dependee}->{$depender} = $reason_for{$dependee};
for my $opt_dep ( sort keys %reverse_depends ) {
print "$opt_dep\n";
my $reason_of = $reverse_depends{$opt_dep};
for my $depender ( sort keys %$reason_of ) {
my $reason = $reason_of->{$depender};
print " $depender",
( $reason ? ": $reason\n" : "\n" );

I have 3 drivers that need updating wondering if I should update.

I still have vista and have never added this driver updates listed below. Would adding them now cause problems to my laptop. I seems to be running hard and a recent scan from microsoft mentioned that my hard drive was unstable. I don't want to take a chance and cause my pc to crash. Thank you.

Your bigger problem is the "unstable" hard drive. That must be addressed before you do anything else. Can you tell us the exact meassage? You should run the hard drive test in the BIOS, not the microsoft test.

Why does the App Store keep telling me I have apps that need updating?

My iPhone keeps displaying the little notification that I need to update 1 or multiple apps even when I don't. It happens all the time and it's just a quirky thing. Are there any fixes for this?

TS1702 I was notified that I had two aps that needed update. I tried to update the two and they froze for over a week in the downloading phase! So I removed both and tried to download as e aps...new. Same problem. They froze in the installing phase.

I was notified that I needed to update two of my current apps. I tried to do so and they both froze in the install-update phase. So I discontinued them and tried to download as new. they froze again During the install phase. So to test the apps in general I tried to install a completely new app. It also froze in the installing phase also! Please help me. Thanks.

Once one app stalls in the downloading phase, every other app behind it will probably stall as well. Do not try to downloads any other apps until you get this resolved.
If the Apps are showing the "waiting" icons, try some of theses suggestions and see if one of them will get you out of this predicament.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
Make sure that you do not have a stalled download in iTunes - a song or podcast .... if you have a download in there that did not finish, complete that one first. Only one thing can download at a time on the iPad so that could be what is causing the problem.
If that doesn't work - sign out of your account, restart the iPad and then sign in again.
Settings>iTunes & App Store>Apple ID. Tap your ID and sign out. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Go back to Settings>iTunes & App Store>Sign in and then try to update again. Tap one waiting icon only if necessary to start the download stream.
You can also try deleting the waiting icons - tap and hold down on an icon until it wiggles - the tap the X on the icon to delete it. Then try to download again.
You can try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your device settings again.... All of the settings in the settings app will have to be re-entered.
If all else fails, download the updates or the apps in iTunes on your computer and then sync the content to your iPad.

Problem with primary key field that needs updating on commit

Taking on someone else's form and trying to tidy it up as it has no primary key on tha table.
The only primary key i can apply is (invoice number, line number)
This has to be displayed on the form as a provisional number when the user enters the form. So it need to show for example inv number 1000 with each line on the invoice being 1,2,3,4 etc.
The form then has a linked table for the lines per invoice that inserts invnumber and line number into a seperate table on PRE INSERT trigger. This means that if they put on various lines i need to do a post.
My problem comes because more than one person can use the form at the same time so user a will go into the form and see inv number 1000, user b will also see 1000. The original form was making these null and updating to correct number on commit but i wanted to add a primary key.
Im jusat wodering the best way to do this as if user a does not save before user b. there is a potential for a lock to occur on the post. Also they must be updated to a new number if someone else saves before them

either you create a sequence for this by create sequence command and populate the sequence value. but in this case if the form is cancelled the sequence is missed and the next sequence will appear. Another way to do is to generate the invoice number when the user press save button and then assign that value to text item. It is the best way to do. So the user will see invoice number only when they save and it happens in milli seconds so there is no question of overlapping invoice number.
Hope this helps.
