  • What's the difference between MP3 and M4a?

    The "convert selecton to MP3" in itunes is giving me files labeled "M4a" What's the difference between the two?

    A .m4a file is in AAC format. Sure your menu option says "Convert to MP3" and not "Convert to AAC"? Check iTunes Prefs to see what import filter is applied.

  • Difference between Import and Add

    Just curious what the difference between Import and Add File/Folder in iTunes is? I know consolidate will create a copy of your files and put them into the iTunes library.

    Import is for audio files.
    Add to library is for MP3, AAC, Apple Aossless, aiff and wav files.
    I know consolidate will create a copy of your files and put them into the iTunes library.
    Close. The iTunes library what is in iTunes.
    Consolidate copies the files into the iTunes music folder.

  • N97 bad music player, difference between v20 and v...

    Hi,
    Can anyone tell me the changes of the music player made in firmware version 21.0.045 compared to version 20.0.019?
    All the changes logs I can find say “music player improvements” but I can't find any.
    The difference between v20 and the version before that ware obvious.
    “Improvements” like the “back” button going back to the home screen instead of the music list you ware coming from.
    The removal of the search function in portrait mode, you can only search songs with the hardware keyboard, so no portrait touchscreen keyboard search. (very annoying when using a car dashboard stand).
    And they ruined the search function all together. Now I can only search on the first word of a song, album or artiste. First I was able to search just a (part of a)word and all songs containing that word in the title would be found. I have almost 1500 songs on my N97 with only 1/3 of 32GB used. How can the expect me to remember all first words of about 4500 songs!
    And all the album art in the lists, which makes for less songs on the screen at once. I don't like that very much, but that's just me I guess.
    So overall the made an oké music player into an annoying player ware bey I have to remember way to much to use it properly
    Of course I hoped that v21 would bring some positive chances to the music player, but I cant find any. Can Anyone tell me the changes, if any. Or are they all under the hood? But I haven't noticed any performance boosts either.
    Hope to hear from someone.

    I do not think that N97's music player  is going to be fixed in any way...
    Why? Because N97 is the worst device Nokia has ever produced! They will stop N97 software upgrading   because  many things in this phone went wrong. Now they claim they can fix it. And I claim: no, they can not. If they could save the sinking ship of N97 we would wait for so long for the solution of the problem called N97.
    Look how irresponsible N97 becomes when you start music player!
    Is this CPU issue? Playing mp3 file with 400 MHz cpu is very big deal!
    My E71 has never stopped responding, and what I dit with E71 was multitasking torture!

  • Difference between Null and null?

    What is the difference between null and NULL?
    When is each used?
    Thanks,

    There is a null in java, but no NULL. null means no value. However, when assigning value, the following is different:Although the empty String has no special role. Null means, the referential type is not assigned (doesn't refer) to a specific object. The empty String is just another object though, so seeing it or pointing it out as something special when it actually isn't at all (no more special than new Integer(0) or new Object[0]) just adds to the confusion.

  • Difference between GUI_UPLOAD and WS_UPLOAD

    Hi,
    Please make me clear about the difference between GUI_UPLOAD and WS_UPLOAD. In which cases we need to use these modules...??
    Thanks,
    Satish

    I would suggest to always use the GUI_UPLOAD.  I say this because this is the function module which is used in the GUI_UPLOAD method of the class CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES.   Really, you should probably use the class/method instead of the function module.
      data: filename type string.
      filename = p_file.
      call method cl_gui_frontend_services=>gui_upload
             exporting
                  filename                = filename
                  filetype                = 'ASC'
             changing
                  data_tab                = iflatf
             exceptions
                  file_open_error         = 1
                  file_read_error         = 2
                  no_batch                = 3
                  gui_refuse_filetransfer = 4
                  no_authority            = 6
                  unknown_error           = 7
                  bad_data_format         = 8
                  unknown_dp_error        = 12

  • Difference between char and varchar, also the difference between varchar2

    Hi,
    Can anyone explain me the difference between char and varchar, and also the difference between varchar and varchar2...

    Varchar2 is variable width character data type, so if you define column with width 20 and insert only one character to tis column only, one character will be stored in database. Char is not variable width so when you define column with width 20 and insert one character to this column it will be right padded with 19 spaces to desired length, so you will store 20 characters in the dattabase (follow the example 1). Varchar data type from Oracle 9i is automaticlly promoted to varchar2 (follow example 2)
    Example 1:
    SQL> create table tchar(text1 char(10), text2 varchar2(10))
    2 /
    Table created.
    SQL> insert into tchar values('krystian','krystian')
    2 /
    1 row created.
    SQL> select text1, length(text1), text2, length(text2)
    2 from tchar
    3 /
    TEXT1 LENGTH(TEXT1) TEXT2 LENGTH(TEXT2)
    krystian 10 krystian 8
    Example 2:
    create table tvarchar(text varchar(10))
    SQL> select table_name,column_name,data_type
    2 from user_tab_columns
    3 where table_name = 'TVARCHAR'
    4 /
    TABLE_NAME COLUMN_NAME DATA_TYPE
    TVARCHAR TEXT VARCHAR2

  • The difference between SFP+ and X2

    Dear Expert,
    I need to know what is the difference between SFP+ and X2! and can I use SFP+ card and module instead of X2?
    Thanks,
    Mohammad Saeed

    Hi,
    They are both used for 10Gig interfaces.  The difference is the connector type.
    SFP+ is LC and X2 is SC.
    You can not put an SFP+ into an X2 slot or X2 optic into a SFP+.

  • Difference between ok_code and sy-ucomm

    Hi,
    Can any one tell me the difference between ok_code and sy-ucomm

    Hi,
    Actually OK_CODE and SY-Ucomm are the same. But experts suggest use of OK code for following reason:
    In each PAI event that a user triggers by choosing either a pushbutton on the screen or an element in a GUI status, the corresponding function code is placed into the system field SYST-UCOMM or SY-UCOMM and placed in the OK_CODE field (as long as the function code is not empty). Empty function codes are placed in neither the SY-UCOMM field nor the OK_CODE field.
    In your ABAP programs, you should work with the OK_CODE field instead of SY-UCOMM. There are two reasons for this: Firstly, the ABAP program has full control over fields declared within it, and secondly, you should never change the value of an ABAP system field. However, you should also always initialize the OK_CODE field in an ABAP program for the following reason:
    In the same way that the OK_CODE field in the ABAP program and the system field SY-UCOMM receive the contents of the corresponding screen fields in the PAI event, their contents are also assigned to the OK_CODE screen field and system field SYST-UCOMM in the PBO event. Therefore, you must clear the OK_CODE field in the ABAP program to ensure that the function code of a screen is not already filled in the PBO event with an unwanted value. This is particularly important when the next PAI event can be triggered with an empty function code (for example, using ENTER). Empty function codes do not affect SY-UCOMM or the OK_CODE field, and consequently, the old field contents are transported.

  • What is difference between abstraction and encapsulation ?

    Hi,
    I am trying to figure out the difference between abstraction and encapsulation but confused.
    Both are used for data hiding then what is the exact difference ?
    Thanks.

    Both are used for data hiding then what is the exact difference ?This is the picture I have:
    When you encapsulate something you get an inside and an outside. The outside is the abstraction. It describes how the encapsulated entity behaves viewed from the outside. This is also called the type. Hidden inside is the implementation. It holds detail information about how the type's behaviour is accomplished.
    It's a very simplified picture but I think it's quite accurate and it works for me.

  • What is difference between Iterator and Collection Wrapper?

    Hi all,
                  I dont understand the actual difference between Iterator and Collection Wrapper. I observed both are used for the same purpose. Could any one please let me know when to use Collection Wrapper and when to use Iterator??
    Thanks,
    Chinnu.

    L_Kiryl is right.
    Collections support global iteration (through collection->get_next( )) and local iteration (through iterator->get_next( )).
    Each collection has a focus object. Initially, the first object has the focus.
    Any global iteration moves the focus, which is published by the event FOCUS_CHANGED of the collection.
    If you want to iterate on the collection without moving the focus (and without triggering timeconsuming follow-up processes) you can use local iteration. To do so, request an iterator object from the collection and use this to iterate.
    And one more advantage of using iterator: it takes care of deleted entities. If you use global iteration then when you reach deleted entity it will be an exception. But there is no exception with iterator in the same situation.

  • What is difference between modify and update i am using

    hi
    what is difference between mofify and update
    my requiremen is to have three condition checkec while mofifying or updating from a internal table
    the three fields are
    cus no
    status
    date these all are primary key in the database table
    so which sould i use modify or update
    there might be entry already existing in database table or new entry to be created if already existin it should check on the primary keys and updatat if not it should add a record
    pls suggest whihc to use and how to implement the check on teh threee primary key
    like if modify ztable from table it_test
    now where condition ? can be used or not with modify? and if yes how
    if not should i use update will update create a new entry if no entry is there and please give syntex
    regards
    Arora

    Hi Nishant Arora,
    Modify: It works in performing two actions.
    They are: Insert + Update.
    For Example If a record that is exited in database, so you are modifying that record, it updates that particular record.
    Similarly, If the is not existed in the database, you are modifying it, it inserts a new record.
    Update: Update means just it updates the status, I mean it only updates the record. It doesn't inserts any new record if that particular record is not present in the database.
    These are the cases you need to write these statements.
    Syntaxes: :

  • What is Difference between SXMB_MONI and SXMB_MONITOR?

    what is Difference between SXMB_MONI and SXMB_MONITOR?
    Can any explain to this question.please?

    Hello,
    Both are same.
    SXMB_MONI is area menu which will contain all multiple transactions pertaining to monitoring.
    SXMB_MONI contains some functions viz monitoring for Bridging, Archived Msgs, Job overview, persistence layer analysis.
    SXI_monitor directly leads to the message monitoring for the IS, which is part of the SXMB_MONI.
    SXI_MONITOR directly executes the monitoring report.
