Did you know Lion would not be able to run your older applications?

I'm asking this question because I'm seeing a lot of posts from people who didn't know.
Mac-heads knew, of course, but it seems many normal people with far better and more important things to think about, who just expect their Macs to work, didn't hear the news that with the discontinuation of Rosetta, applications such as Quicken, Office 2004, etc. would suddenly not function.
As a result, it seems that many users now find their work seriously interrupted.
So did Apple do a good job of letting people know about this?

Thanks Michael!
As it turns out, this isn't quite the answer but you've definitely helped in figuring this out. Based on some additional experimentation (triggered by your line of thinking!), it seems that a change to the project's task and/or resources will disable
the publish capability for that project's resource plan - unti the project is published again in PWA. So if you add a task, or resource, or change an assignment that will trigger this greyed-out behavior for the publish button in the ribbon of the resource
plan.
Also, I've found that publishing in project professional has no impact. The only way to re-enable the publish capability for the resource plan is to publish the project in PWA. Of course, the message that accompanies the greyed-out publish button
states this explicitly but people like me (who lack a keen sense for the obvious) sometimes miss these subtleties.
Thanks again for your response - quite helpful.

Your Roaming do you know it or not? But its still your money when you don't know

11/21/2010... I am absolutely disappointed right now. First because when a call comes into you, as a customer we may not know the phone is roaming and taking our money. I put $15.00 on my already pre-paid phone tonight and unknowing to me when I received a call, my phone started roaming and took ALL of the $15.00 I put on it. So I called in to Verizon and the 1st person couldn't help me so a supervisor got on, and would you believe that in the beginning of the call she told me she couldn't give me all my money back but she would give me half, so I said NO I can't except that and we continued to talk SO at the end of the call I told her " It's not the customers fault that we don't know when our calls start to roam and we then get charged above our pre-paid plan so give me half my money back and SHE DECLINED TO GIVE ME MY MONEY BACK BECAUSE AT THE BEGINNING OF THE CALL I TOLD HER NO... Profit over customer is what I've learned tonight... I'M SO DISAPPOINTED IN VERIZON RIGHT NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Most phones have a roaming indicator as well as a way to prevent the phone from roaming. If you post the type of phone you have, someone here may be able to help you learn what the indicator looks like and then turn off roaming so this doesn't happen in the future.

When i went to install maverick a screen said i would not be able to run my excel, word or power point apps. why is this and what do I need to do to run those apps? thanks.

I downloaded Mavericks and went to install it, but a message popped up that said I wouldn't be able run excel, word or powerpoint. Why is this and how do I fix this issue? Thank you.

Only MS Office 2008 or later will run on Mavericks. What version are you using currently?

Drawing attention to an FP object DId YOU know this?

Often when we are walking a user through filling out some required information we want to direct their attention to a particular control. The traditional wasy of oing this is to use "key focus" and if more "help" is required maybe change a string control with instruction saying "please fill in your name!". If you really want to get fancy you may even change the background color.
There is now a new approach available but I am not going to tell you what it is (yet). Instead I'll show you!
Run the attached VI (in LV 8.6) and press the highlight button.
The approach I used is in the code but I hid it so you can first ask yourself "how would I have done that?"
So did YOU know this?

From reading between Darren's lines, the method existed previously and thus if Ben saves a copy for previous versions it will work and the method can be cut and pasted to VIs and used in other versions. Ben, can you save a version 8.5 of this and see if it works and then post it? It would be a nice tool and some of us are stuck at 8.5 until further notice.
Oww you are sharp Scott!
Here it is saved as a invoke node. I did not test it since my 8.5 and 8.6 machines are unique boots of the same machine. If it works we may be able to go bak fartehr than 8.5.
Let me know if it works!

Did you know how easy it is to void your warranty?

Many things are in the terms and conditions but I feel some need to be brought to the attention of the buyer,in Particular this one!
Did you know that if the screen gets a scratch ,the warranty becomes void!!
so even if there is a problem with the device itself that has nothing to do with you,if you have a scratch on the screen they wont repair it,claiming that there is damage to the device and the warranty is void!!
Holy GOD,im shocked to find this out,but this is from Apple itself! A scratch on the screen means you have NO COVER!! Do me a favour and pass this on,as Im sure others will be as surprised as me to find this out!
Quote from Apple when I asked if a scratch to the screen would mean I have no cover
"Angelo:
Yes, if there is any damage to the device the warranty is voided.".

Not necessarily true as your post is too general. The warranty does not cover cosmetic damage, so a scratched screen will not be repaired/replaced to fix the scratch. However, Apple will determine, on a case by case basis, if the cosmetic damage actually indicates a cause for any functional or other hardware defect or improper function.
You can indeed bring in a cosmetically flawed device for service under warranty for defective components. The only time cosmetic damage will void the warranty entirely is if it is determined to indicate accidental damage, abuse or mis-use of the device in some way as to void the warranty. But that is decided on a case by case basis, and there is no blanket rule governing such instances.
You can read your warranty here - https://www.apple.com/legal/warranty (pick your country from the bottom right flag symbol). In the USA, for an iPad with retina display, the main paragraph covering the issue you raise would be:
"This Warranty does not apply: (a) to consumable parts, such as batteries or protective coatings that are designed to diminish over time, unless failure has occurred due to a defect in materials or workmanship; (b) to cosmetic damage, including but not limited to scratches, dents and broken plastic on ports; (c) to damage caused by use with another product; (d) to damage caused by accident, abuse, misuse, liquid contact, fire, earthquake or other external cause; (e) to damage caused by operating the Apple Product outside Apple’s published guidelines; (f) to damage caused by service (including upgrades and expansions) performed by anyone who is not a representative of Apple or an Apple Authorized Service Provider (“AASP”); (g) to an Apple Product that has been modified to alter functionality or capability without the written permission of Apple; (h) to defects caused by normal wear and tear or otherwise due to the normal aging of the Apple Product, or if any serial number has been removed or defaced from the Apple Product."
Note the separate statements - that cosmetic damage itself is not covered, nor is damage caused by accident, abuse or misuse. However, whether anything falling into the former criterion actually constitutes voidance of the warranty by the latter criterion will be determined by Apple when you present an item for warranty service. One thing does not automatically imply the other.

DID YOU KNOW?? - ABOUT ADVANCED COMPONENTS IN THE PALETTE??

<br>
Hi All,
DID YOU KNOW??
The IDE ships with the following Advanced Components in the Palette.
These advanced components are a set of JavaServer Page markup tags for advanced users. The components have no visual appearance and are useful to developers with experience in JSP and JavaServer Faces technologies.
* Encoding
* Faces Action Listener
* Faces Converter
* Faces Validator
* Faces Value Change Listener
* Faces Verbatim
* Link
* Load Bundle
* Markup
* Meta
* Parameter
* Script
Lets look at MARKUP component in more detail.
The MARKUP Component
You can drag the Markup component Markup component icon from the Palette's Advanced category to the Visual Designer to create a standard HTML tag. The Markup component enables you to insert HTML elements into the JSP page in places that HTML is not permitted.
When you drop this component on a page in the Visual Designer, you cannot see it on the page until you set the tag property. You can see it in the Outline window and you can select it there to edit its properties in the Properties window.
Use the tag property to specify the type of HTML element to insert. For instance, to insert an <hr> tag, set the tag property to hr with no angle brackets and select the singleton property .
To provide compliance with XHTML, if the HTML element you are inserting is a singleton element, you must specify the singleton property, which causes a trailing /> to be generated in the rendered HTML. For example, the <br> element is a singleton element that must be rendered as
to make it XHTML compliant.
If you want to specify HTML attributes in addition to id and style for the element you are inserting, use the extraAttributes property.

We would like to know the following from you :-
1) Are you using these Advanced Components in applications you are building? If so How and Where?
2) Did you face any challenges while using them?
3) Did you find any special usages/scenarios for using these components?

DID YOU KNOW?? - ABOUT DATE TIME CONVERTERS??

Hi All,
DID YOU KNOW??
That the Creator IDE provides a set of converters that you can use to convert component data. If your input field is for numbers, then you most likely need a converter. Converters are also good for formatting dates, times, and currency values. The standard converters, which you can use are located in the Converters section of the Components Palette.
The Date Time Converter
A Date Time Converter Converts between java.lang.String values in your component properties and data types of java.util.Date. The conversion usually applies to the property of a component used to display values and to pick up values entered by users, such as the text property of a Text Field component.
An example is binding a JavaServer Faces component to to a database column of type DATE. When you bind a component, the IDE normally identifies the data type for you and sets the appropriate converter when you establish a binding to the value property. However, you can also add this converter manually by setting the component's converter property.
* Note: If you are using an Oracle database, use the SQL Timestamp converter instead.

3) Did you find any cool ways of using these or build any cool custom converters?

did you know that sqlTimestamp converter returns value of java.sql.Date type if you are using sun's oracle jdbc driver. It will return the correct type if you use oracle's jdbc driver. Not sure why this happen, though. Bug?

DID YOU KNOW ?? - Number Converters?

Hi All,

Converters are also good for formatting dates, times, and currency values. The standard converters, which you can use are located in the Converters section of the Components Palette.
The Number Converter
Is a type of converter that Converts between java.lang.String values in your component properties and data types of java.lang.Number. The conversion usually applies to the property a component uses to display values and to pick up values entered by users. For example, the Text Field component uses the text property for this purpose.
The Number Converter returns a Long if possible (within the range [Long.MIN_VALUE, Long.MAX_VALUE] and with no decimals), otherwise a Double. If you need the converter to return a numerical type other than Long or Double, or you need to narrow the choice to a specific type. The other lists of converters to choose from include Big Decimal Converter, Integer Converter, Long Converter, Float Converter, Long Converter, Short Converter and Double Converter.
When you bind a component, the IDE normally identifies the data type for you and sets the appropriate converter when you establish a binding to the value property. However, you can also add a converter manually by setting the component's converter property.

I'm having problems converting from text input with a NumberConvertor back to text. I'm trying to take a pay amount, annualize it (x * 24), and convert it back to text for a database query. I got the following to work, but is there a better way?
Input field is "grossPay", output is "apay".
public String button1_action() {
Number n = (Number) grossPay.getValue();
float f = n.floatValue() * 24;
apay.setText("" + f);
return null;
}

Did you know that the carrier Verizon offer the merge conference call or internet while on call on the iphone? Only AT

Did you know that you can't use the merge function on a iPhone 4s with Verizon Wireless? They blocked the function only AT&T has it, also Verizon doesn't allow browsing the Internet while on a call like AT&T, huge mistake Verizon. For people that conference call, don't get tricked into changing carriers until Verizon changes this feature.

Not sure about the merging of calls, but being able to browse the internet while on a call can't be done with CDMA technology -- so it's not that Verizon doesn't allow it, it just can't be done on their network. This is old news ...

"You will not be able to publish your resource plan..."

Hi all,
Project Server 2010 with SP1 and Feb '12 CU.
We've started experimenting with resource planning and have found a situation for which I have no explanation. For some projects, the resource plan functions work just fine. But we have a few where the Publish option in the ribbon of the resource
plan is greyed-out and a message stating "Your will not be able to publish your resource plan until you publish the corresponding project schedule". I've found that by following the instructions and publishing the project in PWA works - the publish capability
for the resource plan is no longer greyed-out.
HOWEVER, I don't know what's causing this situation in the first place. New projects can be created and they don't seem to produce the greyed-out publish option. Most existing projects won't behave this way either - but some do. It doesn't
appear to be a permissions issue since when the publish button is greyed-out it remains that way for project managers and admin alike. Also, publishing the project from Project Professional doesn't work either, only publishing from PWA will do the trick.
Any advice about how to avoid getting the greyed-out publish button for resource plans would be most appreciated.

Thanks Michael!
As it turns out, this isn't quite the answer but you've definitely helped in figuring this out. Based on some additional experimentation (triggered by your line of thinking!), it seems that a change to the project's task and/or resources will disable

Did you know about "Arbitration and Mediation" FAQ?

I have just made a discovery that many of you frustrated Verizon customers will be very interested in knowing about. Did you know that you can type in legal action in the search verizon.com box and you will find a category called "Arbitration & Mediation" FAQ? For those of you, like myself who have been dealing with months and months of issues with Verizon and you are getting nowhere, you might check this out. It is very interesting.This may have saved me hours and hours of time and some over the top emotion that our situation has caused.

Proper names are known. But product names will not be - nor will acronyms.

Did you know this about bridge?

I'm just curious if I'm the only one who is this slow... :p
But did you know you could use Bridge to search your computer for images by dimensions? Man, I spent sooo much time this morning trying to find a way to 'trick' Windows into giving me a search by dimensions option. :D
Afterwards, I wasted even
more time googling for utilities or tools with that feature. :\ Then it hit me: I remembered seeing all kinds of neat bits of image information in Bridge last time I used it.
And there it was, in the "find" menu... lol

You are absolutely right, it is good business practice to check out the offerings from a company before you show or give it to your customers.
I guess I just assumed that there would be a cut-out on the front cover of the Aperture books, since the soft cover books I ordered from iPhoto did have the front cover cut-out.
My question, however, is where in the description of the Aperture hard cover book does it state that the cover photo is pasted on ? It is difficult to tell how the front cover is constructed from the photos on the Aperture web site.
...... I may have missed it.
A lesson learned!
Thanks for your comments.

Did you know? - 2

A follow-up to my first "Did you know?".
Did you know....
That when you are getting a call you can turn the phone screen down on a flat surface to silence the ringer?!
That by default EVERY new number you dial gets saved to Contacts?! To disable this select Phone on home screen. Then click Menu--> Phone Settings and uncheck "Save to contacts"
That there is a feature called "Quiet ring on pickup" on our phones? When the phone rings and you pick it up (not answer it), it starts reducing the ringer volume. The downside to this is that if you are walking around with the phone in your pocket on a busy street or the mall, you will not hear it ring!!! To disable it, select Menu--> Settings-->Sound and uncheck "Quiet ring on pickup". Some may find this useful, it annoyed the hell out of me though!
Hope someone finds this useful...

i actually love the quiet ringer feature. i do have it set to ring and vibrate though....that way if it's in my pocket and the movement triggers the ringer to decrease in volume, i can still feel it vibrate.

DID YOU KNOW?? - ABOUT DATAPROVIDER COMPONENTS IN THE PALETTE??

Hi All,
DID YOU KNOW??
Practically all applications entail accessing data of some sort, often data stored in a relational database table or some sort of list, such as a vector or an array. Usually you need to read in data from the data source, but many times you have to update that data, too. The Sun Java Studio Creator integrated development environment, as another enhancement to its application model, provides data provider components that simplify accessing data sources, regardless of whether the data source is a relational database table, flat file, web service, vector, array, or some other type of data store.
A data provider component is a nonvisual abstraction for wrapping sources of data, and it represents a more generic and flexible data binding mechanism. A glance at the Palette indicates that there are many different kinds of data providers available to you. These include data providers for cached RowSets, ResultSets, lists, arrays, maps, table rows, and method results.
These data providers constitute a layer between a web application's components and its persistence tier, such as a database table, Array object, or Enterprise JavaBean object. This layer enables you to access data in a consistent way, even though data may come from different sources.
Lets briefly discuss the CachedRowSetDataProvider
The CachedRowSetDataProvider Component
A CachedRowSetDataProvider is a wrapper to data held in a CachedRowSet. The primary purpose of a CachedRowSetDataProvider is to facilitate binding to components in the IDE. A CachedRowSet stores the data retrieved from a database. In fact, the only information held by the CachedRowSetDataProvider is a cursor position into the CachedRowSet. Multiple CachedRowSetDataProvider instances can reference the same CachedRowSet, and each instance will have its own cursor position into the CachedRowSet.

2) Did you face any challenges while using them?
3) Did you find any special usages/scenarios for using these components?
4) Do you have any feedback/comments/improvements which you would like to see with using Dataproviders?
