Difference between Gmail and Exchange when setting up email

Hi all,
When adding my Gmail email details in Settings in iOS7 (Via Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Add Account) I’m presented with the options to use Exchange or Google.
I know back in the early days of the iOS it was always preferable to use Exchange as it synced everything on your phone perfectly (mail, contacts, calendar) but it seems that now the Google option is just as good…?
Other than the capability to push emails to my device (a function that I don't use anyway), is there any other difference between the Exchange and Google options when setting up email?
Thanks,
David

I've tested it out on my iOS7 5s; the calendar and contact syncing seems to work absolutely fine though?
This was in reference to the Google option. It syncs mail, calendar, contacts and notes all absolutely fine as far as I can see - I wanted to check I wasn't missing anything.
Any need to get narky there?

Difference between CS3 and CS4 when placing images, percentage not kept

There is some kind of difference between CS3 and CS4 when placing images. The images I've dealt with right now were vector images but it might apply to all kinds of images.
When replacing an existing image, the CS4 behaviour is to let the image fill up the frame. In CS3 the percentage was set to 100% as default (the % you see when selecting the image, not the container).
Also when replacing an impage in CS4, the "inner" image frame is kept, while in C3, the percentage was kept.
Is there some kind of placement preferences / settings to let CS4 act the same wat as CS3 did, when placing an image?
-- Andreas

Yes, the behavior was changed in CS4 (and many users, like me, prefer the new system).
If you click and drag a loaded image place cursor the entire image will be be scaled to fit the proportionally drawn frame -- a huge timesaver if you mostly place uncropped art. If you want 100% of the image at 100% scale, just click and release -- same as before, or as before you can pre-draw a frame and place into it and your image will come in cropped at 100% (unless you've changed the fitting options for the frame before placing).

Difference between IMAP and "Exchange" account in mail?

Hi,
I'm using a Hosted Exchange 2007 account with Entourage 2004 actually. Now I want to try using Mail as an alternative application. As the server offers IMAP I could setup a new IMAP account in Mail and receive my Mails from Exchange. But Mail offers an "Exchange" account additionally. Can anyone explain me the difference between theese two Mail accounts? Is one better, faster or whatever?
Best regards,
Heiko

Exchange uses a proprietary mail exchange protocol, while imap is standard. You can use a lot of different mail clients on different platforms with imap, and you don't have to worry about synchronization or conflicts since its server based. When you establish an imap connection, though, you stay connected to the server, so it's a relatively high resource user. Exchange is more verbose, and although its fundamentally server based using different exchange clients from different places doesn't synchronize well. Exchange will also update your outlook calendar, while imap will not. If it's just for mail, I vastly prefer imap.

What is the difference between IMAP and Exchange IMAP account type?

At the server side there is Exchange 2007, but I don't want to use that as there is no possibility to assign mailboxes for sent mail, so which type of account should I set - IMAP or Exchange IMAP? What is the difference between the two?

Difference between Cabinet and Exchange

So, I might be being a little dumb here (which would not be the first time) but I feel I must be missing something and its probably in my understanding of the terms...
Exchange = The big building that houses all of the tech that occasionally members of the travelling community like to relieve of copper
Cabinet = The shiny green box at the bottom of my road that recently set up shop next to the dull old green box enabling me to receive FTTC
Providing the above is correct, why do all the "exchange checker" tools including BT's own measure the distance between my house and the exchange when calculating my potential speed? Surely the whole point of FTTC is that the fibre (with its massive capacity) is run to the cabinet... Isn't it (within reason) irrelevant how far I am from the exchange?
If the speedchecker says "your X distance from your exchange and can expect a speed of Y" wont Y actually be quite different it I'm only actually 0.25X distance from the cabinet?
OR... am I just being an idiot?
Ross

You are right. For FTTC, only distance from the cabinet matters.
The main estimator tool does take this into account.
On some of the tools you will see a figure called 'uplift' quoted.
This is the improved speed to expect from a connection to your cabinet rather than a connection to the exchange.
eg, you may have an ADSL speed of 18, an uplift of 3, and an estimated 54 for FTTC.
I don't remember any tool that actually quotes your distance from the cabinet.
For example: http://fttc-check.alc.im/ gives an uplift.
The telephone number based http://www.dslchecker.bt.com/adsl/adslchecker.welcome is informative.
~~~
Of course, as always with estimates, there is lots to go wrong. They are estimates, not promises, despite many posters complaints about 'not being given what we were promised' or 'not being given what we are paying for'.
Most people find they are a bit above the estimate, but it looks as if as more people join FTTC, crosstalk between them will lower their speeds to near the estimate. Some get much lower; aluminium lines is a particular bugbear for FTTC/VDSL which the estimator does not take into account. And for a very few, the records are just screwed up and the estimate rubiish.

Difference between SXPG_COMMAND_EXECUTE and Open data set mechanism

Can you please help me to know the difference between moving a file using FM "SXPG_COMMAND_EXECUTE" and moving file using "open data set - transfer file- close data set" mechanism?

Through 'SXPG_COMMAND_EXECUTE' u can execute a External command (ie.. UNIX /Windows/OS/400) In ABAP programming..
for Conversion Of Aplication server File/Move the file from one directory to Other...
The Command must be present in SM69.
Using this function module'SXPG_COMMAND_EXECUTE' , you can check the authorization of a user to execute a particular external command and run the command:
With the arguments specified in ADDITIONAL_PARAMETERS
On the target host system defined by OPERATINGSYSTEM and TARGETSYSTEM
If an SAP profile parameter is inserted in the portion of the command stored in the database, then the value of this parameter is substituted into the command. If an SAP application server is active on the target system (TARGETSYSTEM), then the profile parameter values are read from the profile that is active on that system. No parameter substitution is made in ADDITIONAL_PARAMETERS.
After substitution, the command is checked for the presence of "dangerous" characters such as the semicolon ( ; ) on UNIX systems.
If an additional "security function module" is specified in the command definition, this function module is also called in the course of processingebenfalls. This function module can prevent execution of the command.
If the authorization checks complete successfully, the command is run on the target host system.
Through Open Data Set u can read and write the file in the same directory...
Thnaks,
SD

Difference between 'Continent' and 'Country' when ...

I couldn't find an answer to this on either this forum or on another medium.
My phone is C5, I live in the Netherlands and I use the most recent updates of my firmware, Nokia Maps and Nokia Suite.
On the Maps-tab in Nokia Suite (also in former Ovi Suite), we can download:
-map-data country per country;
-every country in a continent by clicking 'Download All' in the top of the screen;
(with both of these, the countries indeed are downloaded separately when I check the "downloading"-tab)
-the whole continent at once by dragging-and-dropping the name of the Continent to the "On device" part of the screen (then, I see only e.g. "Americas" in the downloading-tab)
It all starts downloading, works perfectly.
Sometimes I noticed a difference between the data in the application when downloading the continent-at-once and downloading country-by-country (or clicking 'Download All'). However, I can't pinpoint it. There's also a difference in the total amount (MB's) of data stored extra on the device.
Is it that some countries (say, "Nepal" or "Ecuador") are not included in the country-by-country, but are in the continent-download?
Is it that the continent only downloads all the low-detail info (so until you zoom in), while the separate country-by-country gives me the exact opposite; High detail but no 'terrain-view' if I zoom out?
Sorry for a lot of text... , and thanks for any advice!

@Newgarden
Just to add to the confusion there are anomalies with some island(s) which neither seem to be included as a country's dependencies nor are included with the nearest land mass, but yet data is present if World map data is downloaded; whether the reasoning is that as probably small amount of data it can be downloaded with Ovi Maps in "Online" mode if needed I know not.

Difference between Firefox and Safari when viewing iWeb created content.

Greeting Mac fans,
I've noticed that my iWeb pages load 2-3 times faster when viewed in Firefox than Safari. I find this a little suprising.
Also, my hit counter shows when the page is displayed in Firefox, but not in Safari.
Any ideas?
All content was created using iWeb and is hosted at my dotmac account. I have a domain name and I'm also using "masked URL fowarding"
Peace
super_tee
Emac 1.25ghz Mac OS X (10.4.8) Packed to the eyeballs with goodies....

There are two things that I think are at play
here...
First, the difference in loading times between
FireFox and Safari.... I haven't noticed that huge of
a difference myself, but what I have noticed is that
FireFox is much faster at pulling up cached
material....or maybe figuring out whether to pull
from cache vs. anew. I've noticed that FireFox also
hangs on to cached material more tenaciously than
Safari, meaning that sometimes I have to go in and
empty FireFox's cache in order to see something
update...I have to do this much more often in FireFox
than Safari.
Second, about your counters. If you turn your
masking off from your domain forwarding, you .Mac
counters will be visible to all. Using masking will
make them invisible to certain browsers under certain
conditions.
James, I guess I should download and use Firefox, but remember feeling burned the last time I did. I downloaded it, and soon after, things went awry with my computer. I am hoping that the were unrelated events, since Leo Laporte, the KFI techie guru, also recommends using Firefox for various reasons. He says that it is very safe because, basically, it is "dumb" (his words). But he meant that it's lack of bells and whistles made it go very fast, and made it avoid all the problems of Internet Explorer.

Viewing free/busy time between gmail and exchange

I have a need to allow users in a partner organization to see free/busy time in our calendars for scheduling. We are using Google Apps for Business. The partner organization is using Microsoft Office365.
If both were using O365, I know federation is possible. Is there anything similar with Gmail or any third part tools to allow both parties to see free/busy time on the others calendars?
This topic first appeared in the Spiceworks Community

Hi Brian,
I think the root cause is that the external URL was not on the E2K7 CAS servers for EWS.
You can set the URL using the below command:
Set-WebServicesVirtualDirectory -identity "CHIEXCH-CAS-P1\EWS (Default Web Site)" -externalurl https://***.***.com/EWS/Exchange.asmx
Set-WebServicesVirtualDirectory -identity "CHIEXCH-CAS-P2\EWS (Default Web Site)" -externalurl https://***.***.com/EWS/Exchange.asmx
Thanks,
James

One hour time difference between Palm and Exchange calendar items

Calendar items on Exchange and Palm are off by one hour.
Exchange server, desktop PC and Palm are all set to PST with the same time. Versamail account on Palm has been deleted and rebuilt.
See screen shots at http://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/kPKBDS28rhdVsextLM1PPQ?feat=directlink
What is interesting is the appointments entered in Outlook show up on the Palm one hour early however they show the correct time in (parenthises) so the Palm seems to be somewhat aware of the problem.
This same issue occurs on different Palm T/X 's with different Outlook accounts.
Any suggestions are welcome

Differences between Linux and Solaris command set

Hi,
It is complicated to learn Solaris? Is the set of commands the same of Linux?
It is because is more simple for me to find a Linux Admin book than a Solaris book.
Thanks.
Lorenzo

BTW: You might want to start with this peace if information:
http://wwws.sun.com/software/whitepapers/linux/linux_overview.pdf
One remark: this Blue/white paper is written for audience known to Solaris and new to Linux, but usefull the other way around.
Specially table 1 is very usefull !
Good luck, and Welcome as new Solaris Administrator.

Difference between DBMS_FGA and DBMS_RLS

Hi all,
I've learnt that both DBMS_FGA and DBMS_RLS can be used to apply fine-grained policies on tables with some more procedures for the later.
My simple question is What is the main difference between DBMS_FGA and DBMS_RLS when it comes to add a policy? When shall I use either of them?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
I believe DBMS_FGA is being kept to support the old oracle version, but is being replaced with DBMS_RLS from 10g onward.

Difference between do-while, do-when, do-until and do-select in app engine.

Hi can anyone please tell me the difference between do-while, do-when, do-until and do-select in app engine.
I read the peoplebooks, but i was not able to keep up with that.
I know like do-while is like WHILE loop in any programming language.
here my question starts. WHILE has a condition inside the parenthesis and it will check whether that condition is true or not. where do we have that condition in do-while(is it the where conditions inside the do-while)?
Please clarify me.
Thank you,
Bye.

Hello user609854,
Do-While
in simple words it is like, keep doing specified task , up to / when the condition is matching. once this is over, terminate the loop and come out. :)
If the Do While does not return any rows, the step is complete.
DoWhen - Select statement that allows subsequent actions to be executed if any rows of data are returned.i.e.when a particular conditions is matched like emplid='A2200' or may be a role based criteria etc
A Do When statement runs before any other actions in the step. If the Do When statement returns any rows,the next action is executed.
If the Do When conditions are not met, the remaining actions within that step are
not executed. Your program executes a Do When action only once when the owning step executes.
The only property that you can specify for the Do When action is the ReUse Statement property, which applies to all SQL-based actions.
Do-Until
Keep performing certain task , every time a particular task is being performed. its like keep doing task B until task A is accomplished.
A Do Until action is a Select statement that runs after each action when a step completes. Use aDoUntil action if you want the processing actions to execute at least once, and to execute over and over until a certain condition is true, such as until a Select statement returns some rows.You can also use a Do Until action to stop a Do Select action prematurely.
Do-Select
a) Select/Fetch : AE performs a Fetch statement for each iteration of the loop to get each row from the Select statement
b) Re-Select : For each Iteration , opens a cursor and fetches the first row. The cursor is reopen for each iteration. we put certain criteria by which the conditions should not match else this can be a deadlock
c) Restartable : This is same as ReSelect accept, Restartable flexibility.
We can restart this select/fetch as AE performs a checkpoint in the middle of the step. SQL in this mode,during restart will recognize where the previous run failed&where to restart processing.
Please Note: When AE is not set up for restartability, then commits are not controlled, monitored, or restricted by PeopleSoft Application Engine.
In Do Actions & Do Select we can specify ReUseStatement ~ SQL-based actions.
Please , let me know if this is fine with you.
