Different advice from every employee lol

Hi I have been researching so much that everything is becoming a blur. I have gone to a Best Buy every day for the last 8 days and every person I have talked to has suggested something different , so hoping for some help here.
I will be using my next camcorder for filming painters/artists demonstrating how to do certain techniques. They will range in length from 15 minutes to 60 minutes I believe.
I have narrowed down my choices to Canon FS20 (this is from Best Buy only) and Sony SX41. Here is why I chose them.
Pros:
Dual or Hybrid (not sure the correct term) storage. Both to internal flash or memory stick. Memory stick included with both.
Supposedly simple to use.
One click transfer to computer. Sony has option for direct connection to DVD burner.
Good battery life.
The lowest prices I have found are reasonable to what I can pay.
Cons:
Canon: From guy I talked to at Best Buy who had just retured his to exchange for a different one. "great all round camera. Returned because of the very noticible click noise when turning on. Not great if you are a hunter."
Sony: A review I read said that there is a noticable purple haze around pictures.
If anyone can offer up any help on these cameras or something that has the features I am looking for, I would appreciate it.

1) The internal flash of most camcorders isn't worth the extra money. Save a bit and go with an SDHC-only unit w/o internal storage. Definately go for flash memory.
2) Sony is obsessed with proprietary memory technologies that no one else uses. Canon uses standard memory technologies (SDHC) which many computers have built-in readers for now. 90% of the time using a dedicated reader (or a PC's built-in reader) will be far faster than most camera's USB cables (and won't drain the camera battery either). I think I've lost the USB cables for every camera I've owned due to disuse...
3) The one bad thing about the Canon FS series is that they have electronic image stabilization and not optical image stabilization. (Their HF series high def units do have OIS - I love my HF100!)
4) Most camcorders have really bad internal microphones. Make sure to get a unit with external mic input. Most Canons have this, not sure about the Sonys.
Due to the lack of OIS, I'd consider looking into a Panasonic flash memory based standard def unit. (Not sure if they have mic jacks though.)
As you can tell, I am in general NOT a fan of Sony, mainly due to the memory compatibility issues. My SDHC cards work in every device I own. (Panasonic point and shoot camera, Pentax DSLR, Canon camcorder, noname GPS receiver, multiple PCs.)
Actually not quite true, my phone and handheld Garmin GPS use MicroSDHC (which fits in everything else with an adapter).
*disclaimer* I am not now, nor have I ever been, an employee of Best Buy, Geek Squad, nor of any of their affiliate, parent, or subsidiary companies.

Hi, My name is Bheki Yende
I'm experiencing a problem with an app I've just purchased from iTunes, I have tried every piece of advice from the "iOS: Troubleshooting applications purchased from the App Store" and still nothing is working. I would like to get my refund on this pls.
This is an inconvenience, I don't understand why I have to contact the developer for a faulty product in your store.
I've paid iTunes to get this, so iTunes must fix this problem for me or give my money back.
Thanks

This is a user forum, you are not speaking to Apple here.
You will need to contact iTunes support here, regarding this issue. They will usually respond within 24 hours.

Is it too much to ask from apple, an option for different volumes levels from different apps, including alarm, text, email, basically from every posible app?

My daughter has had her Razr for about 9 months now. About two weeks ago she picked up her phone in the morning on her way to school when she noticed two cracks, both starting at the camera lens. One goes completely to the bottom and the other goes sharply to the side. She has never dropped it and me and my husband went over it with a fine tooth comb. We looked under a magnifying glass and could no find any reason for the glass to crack. Not one ding, scratch or bang. Our daughter really takes good care of her stuff, but we still wanted to make sure before we sent it in for repairs. Well we did and we got a reply from Motorola with a picture of the cracks saying this was customer abuse and that it is not covered under warranty. Even though they did not find any physical damage to back it up. Well I e-mailed them back and told them I did a little research and found pages of people having the same problems. Well I did not hear from them until I received a notice from Fed Ex that they were sending the phone back. NOT FIXED!!! I went to look up why and guess what there is no case open any more for the phone. It has been wiped clean. I put in the RMA # it comes back not found, I put in the ID #, the SN# and all comes back not found. Yet a day earlier all the info was there. I know there is a lot more people like me and all of you, but they just don't want to be bothered so they pay to have it fix, just to have it do it again. Unless they have found the problem and only fixing it on a customer pay only set up. I am furious and will not be recommending this phone to anyone. And to think I was considering this phone for my next up grade! NOT!!!!

How can I Generate two different reports from single execution of Test cases in NI teststand

Hi,
My requirement is to generate two different reports from NI teststand. One for the Logging of error descriptions and the other report is by default generated by the Teststand. How can i generate a txt file that contains error descriptions other than that mentioned in the default report?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Do you need to do that just for these two sequences but not for other sequences? I don't see a problem to use SequenceFilePostStepRuntimeError. Create this callback in both sequence files and configure them to log into the same file. SequenceFilePostStepRuntimeError callback is called after each step of the sequence file if it has runtime error. You can access the calling step error information via RunState.Caller.Step.Result.Error property. Take a look to attached example.
The "other way" is useful if you need to log errors not for every step of the sequence file, but for some of them. This is more complex, because you need to create a custom step types for these steps. For the custom step you can create substeps (post-step in your case) which will be executed every time after step of this type executed. Then, this is you job to determine if error happened in the step, acces to step's error information is via Step.Result.Error property.
Also, be aware that step's post-expression is not executed in case of error in the step.

Advice From An Old Guy

Times change, moderators come and go. Here is some advice from an old timer to any new moderators, and those that may desire to be one in the future. I was never an official full fledged moderator here at this forum or at others. Be that as it may, there are in my opinion, 3 'basic' elements to make a good moderator 'tech' wise, as I won't discuss the other factors such as maturity level and that kind of thing. Those 3 elements are;
#1 - Experience with the brand products, experience with other brands can also be helpful.
#2 - Product research, research, and continued research. Tech is a continuous conveyor belt on the move and changing all the time.
#3 - Sharing the experience and knowledge learned.
Additional advice, download the product pdf manuals, quick guides, etc.. and study them! Using Intel based as an example, start with the MSI 6 series boards, i.e. P6N Platinum SLI, P6N Diamond, then move to P45 Platinum, X58's, P67's, Z68's, and so forth. Same for graphics cards, etc.. Create an easy to use comprehensive set of categorized library files for yourself. Again, using Intel as an example, download their current product datasheets and Thermal and Design Guides on both CPU 'and' chipsets. Get a copy of the current JEDEC sheets concerning RAM industry specifications. Experience and shared knowledge, of which there is not a substitute for.

Yes, as a matter of fact, I 'am' trying to 'guide' you into being a better moderator. Speaking SATA III vocally is different than in print is it not? It is not an apples to apples comparison. You are held to a higher standard, and 'printed' SATA3 is 'not' right 'technically when discussing SATA other than a SATA port, but SATA 3 is at least 'somewhat' better acceptable than SATA3. MSI uses SATA 3 in the BBX II I am using at the moment in the BIOS, and it is technically incorrect. We could also debate IDE nomenclature, SATA, PATA, flat cable, etc., and what it all means. 'IDE' Mode when running a SATA drive? It can get confusing to some people. That is why the more correct the nomenclature is written, the easier to understand what a person is really trying to convey.
In the future? I don't actively contribute in the regular threads anymore, only active here in AUTS once in awhile, so my comments are going to be done in here, and it was applicable to 'this' thread. The whole purpose of this thread was actually drafted for your benefit, if you hadn't figure that out already.

Folder/ file icons are different sizes from one window to another!

Hi there
I am having an extremely annoying problem where all my folders and files (in icon view) are totally different sizes from each other from one window to another. For example, I might click on a folder that's icon is small sized (64x64), but when that folder opens up, the icons of the subfolders inside are huge (276x276) and need to instantly be resized and re-arranged. Then if i continue to open one of these subfolders, the file icons inside it are now medium sized (96x96). Each new folder that I go into on my hard drive will be differently sized and I end up spending ages resizing and re-arranging them before I can do my work. This problem never happened in Leopard and Im despairing of what to do.
Is there a way of setting a default icon size and spacing that can then be applied to every folder and file on the hard drive? I have used the 'Use as defaults' option on the 'View options' window but this doesn't apply it to anywhere else besides the current window you are on.
Surely, Im doing something wrong as Apple could never have overlooked such an obvious problem like this?
Can anyone advise?
Many thanks
Dan

The Finder will (theoretically) remember the view settings for each individual folder that you visit. If you have not opened a particular folder before, you should get the default view settings, but once you have changed the view then that is what you will get on subsequent visits. You can erase the previous settings by deleting the (normally invisible) .DS_Store file that is created in a folder when it is opened, but this file can contain other Finder metadata.

ODI 11.1.1.5 on different server from OBI 11.1.1.5

I am basically facing a problem with installing ODI 11.1.1.5 (Developer, Standalone and Java EE installations) on a different server from OBI 11.1.1.5. Basically, the thing that did cause this type of installation is that I cannot find a version of ODI to run a 64-bit machine like OBI 11.1.1.5. Hence, I installed the OBI on the 64 bit machine and shared the entire drive on which the home of the BI exist. The share process referenced all the folders contained inside the home with full permission given for read and change. This was being done to provide the bea home for the ODI Java EE installation which is required as a part of the installation process.
The problem is when I specify the middleware home location in the ODI installation with the given shared bea location an error appears saying: INST-07058: unexpected error occurred while validating Oracle home location.
I would be grateful to receive some advice on how to overcome this obstacle with regards to installting ODI on a 32-bit server where the weblogic AS is resided on a different machine running in 64-bit.
Help is very much appreciated...

EPM 11.1.2.1 is certified with 10.3.5.6+
To be honest if you are using 10.3.5.x then it worth patching the latest patch releases as many bugs have been addressed.

Enterprise structure -work from home employees

Hi all,
We are in the process of setting up our Enterprise Structure. PA will be set up as 4 physical offices of the company in US. PSA as to be set up as Divisions of the company. We also have work from home employees working at different locations (15 states) in USA. Right now they are tracked statewise. They are categorized by work from home- per state. Also all work from home employees are treated the same way as other employees who work from office locations in terms of benefits and pay. They are considered as Active employees in current legacy system.
I want the advise on how to go ahead for setting up PA, PSA, EG and ESG for thses emplyees. One option is to set up 15 personnal areas as 15 states which will divide the work from home emp (in addition to 4 PAs as offices) or the other is just to set up one PA for all homebase employees in US and then maintain their locations/states somewhere else.
Has anyone come across the same situation ? How the work from home emp. in other companies are categorized? Any suggestions are welcome.
Thanks.

Thanks Manoj and Sikinder.
And how to categorize them under PA? As I said ealier, we have 4 PAs as physical offices and I am confused where to put the work from employees in Enterprise Structure.
Kindly suggest.
Thanks.

I am having problems using my ipod 7g with Nike Fitness. When running when I press the button between the volume buttons, I get a different action almost every time. And usually I end up either turrning volume up very high or ending the workout. I need to be able to pause workout, and get spoken feedback regarding time, distance, and pace, that's all. I'm using a Griffin brand armband, that covers all of the buttons. I've read the online manual. no help. I'm just about ready to return it and go back to my 5th gen with its smaller song capacity and no blurry. Any help or suggestions very welcome.

Jeff:
I have had both good and bad experiences with Acronis True Image. I got the recent copy of ATI via a Newegg.com bundle. I haven't tried it yet on any Windows 7 editing systems. ATI installs some services that I would rather not have running in the background.
What made you change from ATI to ShadowProtect Desktop Edition?
Are you running Windows 7?
What do you see as advantages to running ShadowProtect Desktop Edition as opposed to Acronis True Image?
Thanks

Problem with ODI 11.1.1.5 on different server from Web-logic

Basically a problem is being faced with installing ODI 11.1.1.5 (Developer, Standalone and Java EE installations) on a different server from OBI 11.1.1.5. Basically, the thing that did cause this type of installation is that I cannot find a version of ODI to run a 64-bit machine like OBI 11.1.1.5. Hence, I installed the OBI on the 64 bit machine and shared the entire drive on which the home of the BI exist. The share process referenced all the folders contained inside the home with full permission given for read and change. This was being done to provide the bea home for the ODI Java EE installation which is required as a part of the installation process.
The problem is when I specify the middleware home location in the ODI installation with the given shared bea location an error appears saying: INST-07058: unexpected error occurred while validating Oracle home location.
I would be grateful to receive some advice on how to overcome this obstacle with regards to installting ODI on a 32-bit server where the weblogic AS is resided on a different machine running in 64-bit.
Help is very much appreciated...

If you no longer have, or access to, the computer(s) you want to deauthorise,
Log in to iTunes, go to "view your account info" on the itunes store, deauthorise all five, (Please Note: this can only be done Once every 12 months) and then re-authorize your current Computer(s) one at a time.

Different behavior from the PRE function based on BMRS and WMRS

Hi All,
We are seeing different behavior from the PRE function based on whether the type is Before Modified Record Saved or When Modified Record Saved. Should the PRE function work the same for both as long as there is not a Wait action in the WMRS workflow?
(((PRE('<plTier_ITAG>') <> [<plTier_ITAG>]) AND ([<plTier_ITAG>] = '2 - BA')) AND [<IndexedPick4>] = 'FSCM')
Explaination: The Tier field changes AND now equals Tier 2, AND Application is equal to 'FSCM'
The same expression fires only as designed in BRMS, but in WMRS it fires every time a SR is in Tier 2 and IndexedPick4 = 'FSCM', regardless of whether a change was made to the Tier field.

Try changing your syntax around to something like -:
PRE('<plTier_ITAG>') {NOT EQUAL} '2 - BA' AND [<plTier_ITAG>] = '2 - BA' AND [<IndexedPick4>] = 'FSCM'
+i.e. Previous value of Tier is not equal to "2 - BA" and current value of Tier equals "2 - BA" and IndexedPick4 equals "FSCM". Replace {NOT EQUAL} with the appropriate syntax+

Cam
