Do ACE exams only focus on new features in that version of software?

Hello everyone,
A bit confused about adobe ACE certifications.
right,  i was looking at using some of the many prep kits from ucertify.com, and was a little baffled you see, in the notes theres is only 200 and something questions on the photoshop cs5 exam and when i looked on the photoshop cs4 exam prep there was like 600 and something?? most of these companies say that there prep kits feature 95% of the material required to pass the exam so looking at this it would be easier to pass the cs5 exam than the cs4 exam?
as i've never taken one of these exams before so this makes me think that the exams are only based on new features with the version of the software not a complete overview of the software.
is this right? or do they just not put it in the prep material as they expect you to have learnt it all from the previous exams?
very confusing.
hope someone can help
tom.

yea thats what i thought, thats the most sensible answer that they expect you to
know it.
but... have you taken any of the them? would love to hear from someone thats taken a few, i wasn't even sure if i'd put this post in the right forum to be honest.
just seems odd why they say 95% of the material is in the prep stuff seems too easy.
i'd have thought that since the cs4 exam had that many more questions that the cs5 exam would have even more prep material but obviously not so.

  • New features for each version of  Hyperion major planning

    Good morning,
    I'd like to work on the list of the new features for each of Hyperion Planning major version release: 9.0, 9.1, 9.2, 9.3, 9.3.1. But if there's already available guide/ chart for this, I'd love to refer to that particular documentation.
    Thanks a lot and have a nice day
    Adrian

    Please check the Release content document - Release 12 Financial Applications, which gives the new functionality of the GL module and there is no doc number for this document, I can send it by email if you want.

  • What are the new features on the iOS 4 software?

    I just finished downloading the new software update on my iPhone 3GS and so far having a wallpaper rocks. I see the multitasking, unified inbox for email, folders, different calendars, different note categories, geotagging pictures,5 times digital zoom(did we always have zoom?), but how do you see pictures organized by who is in them? Is there a status bar that lets us know if there's a message that we missed like on the android phones? And what other features are new that I haven't listed?

    how do you see pictures organized by who is in them?
    I think you'll only see the Faces icon if you sync with iPhoto/Aperture and have assigned Faces metadata there. No clue whether it supports Faces from other applications like Picasa, but it seems unlikely.

  • Oracle 10G New Feature........Part 1

    Dear all,
    from last couple of days i was very busy with my oracle 10g box,so i think this is right time to
    share some intresting feature on 10g and some internal stuff with all of you.
    Have a look :-
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    Oracle 10g Memory and Storage Feature.
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    1.Automatic Memory Management.
    2.Online Segment Shrink
    3.Redolog Advisor, checkpointing
    4.Multiple Temporary tablespace.
    5.Automatic Workload Repository
    6.Active Session History
    7.Misc
    a)Rename Tablespace
    b)Bigfile tablespace
    c)flushing buffer cache
    8.ORACLE INTERNAL
    a)undocumented parameter (_log_blocks_during_backup)
    b)X$ view (x$messages view)
    c)Internal Structure of Controlfile
    1.Automatic memory management
    ================================
    This feature reduce the overhead of oracle DBA.previously mostly time we need to set diff oracle SGA parameter for
    better performance with the help of own experience,advice views and by monitoring the behaviour
    of oracle database.
    this was just time consuming activity.........
    Now this feature makes easy life for oracle DBA.
    Just set SGA_TARGET parameter and it automatically allocate memory to different SGA parameter.
    it focus on DB_CACHE_SIZE
    SHARED_POOL_SIZE
    LARGE_POOL
    JAVA_POOL
    and automatically set it as
    __db_cache_size
    __shared_pool_size
    __large_pool_size
    __java_pool_size
    check it in alert_log
    MMAN(memory manager) process is new in 10g and this is responsible for sga tuning task.
    it automatically increase and decrease the SGA parameters value as per the requirement.
    Benefit:- Maximum utlization of available SGA memory.
    2.Online Segment Shrink.
    ==========================
    hmmmmm again a new feature by oracle to reduce the downtime.Now oracle mainly focus on availablity
    thats why its always try to reduce the downtime by intrducing new feature.
    in previous version ,reducing High water mark of table was possible by
    Exp/imp
    or
    alter table move....cmd. but on these method tables was not available for normal use for long hrs if it has more data.
    but in 10g with just few command we can reduce the HWmark of table.
    this feature is available for ASSM tablespaces.
    1.alter table emp enable row movement.
    2.alter table emp shrink space.
    the second cmd have two phases
    first phase is to compact the segment and in this phase DML operations are allowed.
    second phase(shrink phase)oracle shrink the HWM of table, DML operation will be blocked at that time for short duration.
    So if want to shrink the HWM of table then we should use it with two diff command
    first compact the segment and then shrink it on non-peak hrs.
    alter table emp shrink space compact. (This cmd doesn't block the DML operation.)
    and alter table emp shrink space. (This cmd should be on non-peak hrs.)
    Benefit:- better full table scan.
    3.Redolog Advisor and checkpointing
    ================================================================
    now oracle will suggest the size of redo log file by V$INSTANCE_RECOVERY
    SELECT OPTIMAL_LOGFILE_SIZE
    FROM V$INSTANCE_RECOVERY
    this value is influence with the value of FAST_START_MTTR_TARGET .
    Checkpointing
    Automatic checkpointing will be enable after setting FAST_START_MTTR_TARGET to non-zero value.
    4.Multiple Temporary tablespace.
    ==================================
    Now we can manage multiple temp tablespace under one group.
    we can create a tablespace group implicitly when we include the TABLESPACE GROUP clause in the CREATE TEMPORARY TABLESPACE or ALTER TABLESPACE statement and the specified tablespace group does not currently exist.
    For example, if group1 is not exists,then the following statements create this groups with new tablespace
    CREATE TEMPORARY TABLESPACE temp1 TEMPFILE '/u02/oracle/data/temp01.dbf'
    SIZE 50M
    TABLESPACE GROUP group1;
    --Add Existing temp tablespace into group by
    alter tablespace temp2 tablespace group group1.
    --we can also assign the temp tablespace group on database level as default temp tablespace.
    ALTER DATABASE <db name> DEFAULT TEMPORARY TABLESPACE group1;
    benefit:- Better I/O
    One sql can use more then one temp tablespace
    5.AWR(Automatic Workload Repository):-
    ================================== AWR is built in Repository and Central point of Oracle 10g.Oracle self managing activities
    is fully dependent on AWR.by default after 1 hr, oracle capure all database uses information and store in AWR with the help of
    MMON process.we called it Memory monitor process.and all these information are kept upto 7 days(default) and after that it automatically purge.
    we can generate a AWR report by
    SQL> @?/rdbms/admin/awrrpt
    Just like statspack report but its a advance and diff version of statspack,it provide more information of Database as well as OS.
    it show report in Html and Text format.
    we can also take manually snapshot for AWR by
    BEGIN
    DBMS_WORKLOAD_REPOSITORY.CREATE_SNAPSHOT ();
    END;
    **The STATISTICS_LEVEL initialization parameter must be set to the TYPICAL or ALL to enable the Automatic Workload Repository.

    Benefit:- Now DBA have more free time to play games.....................:-)
    Advance version of statspack
    more DB and OS information with self managing capabilty
    New Automatic alert and database advisor with the help of AWR.
    6.Active Session History:-
    ==========================
    V$active_session_history is view that contain the recent session history.
    the memory for ASH is comes from SGA and it can't more then 5% of Shared pool.
    So we can get latest and active session report from v$active_session_history view and also get histortical data of
    of session from DBA_HIST_ACTIVE_SESS_HISTORY.
    v$active_session_history include some imp column like:-
    ~SQL identifier of SQL statement
    ~Object number, file number, and block number
    ~Wait event identifier and parameters
    ~Session identifier and session serial number
    ~Module and action name
    ~Client identifier of the session
    7.Misc:-
    ========
    Rename Tablespace:-
    =================
    in 10g,we can even rename a tablespace by
    alter tablespace <tb_name> rename to <tb_name_new>;
    This command will update the controlfile,data dictionary and datafile header,but dbf filename will be same.
    **we can't rename system and sysaux tablespace.
    Bigfile tablespace:-
    ====================
    Bigfile tablespace contain only one datafile.
    A bigfile tablespace with 8K blocks can contain a 32 terabyte datafile.
    Bigfile tablespaces are supported only for locally managed tablespaces with automatic segment-space management.
    we can take the advantage of bigfile tablespace when we are using ASM or other logical volume with RAID.
    without ASM or RAID ,it gives poor response.
    syntax:-
    CREATE BIGFILE TABLESPACE bigtbs
    Flushing Buffer Cache:-
    ======================
    This option is same as flushing the shared pool,but only available with 10g.
    but i don't know, whats the use of this command in prod database......
    anyway we can check and try it on test server for tuning n testing some query etc....
    SQL> alter system flush buffer_cache;
    System altered.
    ++++++++++++++++++
    8.Oracle Internal
    ++++++++++++++++++
    Here is some stuff that is not related with 10g but have some intresting things.
    a)undocumented parameter "_log_blocks_during_backup"
    ++++++++++++++++++++++++
    as we know that oracle has generate more redo logs during hotbackup mode because
    oracle has to maintain the a complete copy of block into redolog due to split block.
    we can also change this behaviour by setting this parameter to False.
    If Oracle block size equals the operating system block size.thus reducing the amount of redo generated
    during a hot backup.
    WITHOUT ORACLE SUPPORT DON'T SET IT ON PROD DATABASE.THIS DOCUMENT IS JUST FOR INFORMATIONAL PURPOSE.
    b)some X$ views (X$messages)
    ++++++++++++++++
    if you are intresting in oracle internal architecture then x$ view is right place for getting some intresting things.
    X$messages :-it show all the actions that a background process do.
    select * from x$messages;
    like:-
    lock memory at startup MMAN
    Memory Management MMAN
    Handle sga_target resize MMAN
    Reset advisory pool when advisory turned ON MMAN
    Complete deferred initialization of components MMAN
    lock memory timeout action MMAN
    tune undo retention MMNL
    MMNL Periodic MQL Selector MMNL
    ASH Sampler (KEWA) MMNL
    MMON SWRF Raw Metrics Capture MMNL
    reload failed KSPD callbacks MMON
    SGA memory tuning MMON
    background recovery area alert action MMON
    Flashback Marker MMON
    tablespace alert monitor MMON
    Open/close flashback thread RVWR
    RVWR IO's RVWR
    kfcl instance recovery SMON
    c)Internal Structure of Controlfile
    ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
    The contents of the current controlfile can be dumped in text form.
    Dump Level Dump Contains
    1 only the file header
    2 just the file header, the database info record, and checkpoint progress records
    3 all record types, but just the earliest and latest records for circular reuse record types
    4 as above, but includes the 4 most recent records for circular reuse record types
    5+ as above, but the number of circular reuse records included doubles with each level
    the session must be connected AS SYSDBA
    alter session set events 'immediate trace name controlf level 5';
    This dump show lots of intresting information.
    it also show rman recordes if we used this controlfile in rman backup.
    Thanks

    I am glad there was a copy paste added but it would have been nice to use your own ringtones and I don't understand why they could not use gps for the direction of the phone too.
    I am sure if they can pinpoint you on the map they could tell what direction your holding the phone on the 3g.
    The cam is very poor on the 3g phone it,s more like an afterthought.
    I don't understand why apple did not have the function of moving your photos and ringtones with drag and drop onto itunes rather than sync to a folder.
    yes there are apps you can buy but even a £20 phone lets you do all of above without added cost to the user.
    and where is the software reset for clearing the memory or is that an afterthought too.
    PS not picking holes it's a fact.
    The HTC phone is a nice phone mate has one.

  • New Features for the Zen Mic

    So I have been buzzing around this board for the last week or so, reading up on my new Micro. And now that I have figured everything out and gotten the player to work with WMP0 properly (knock on wood) there are a few things that I would suggest to the developers for future versions of the firmware that I have not even seen mentiond. First off, I would like to see the ability to rate my music, I know that this is probably not the most commonly sought after, or even useful feature, but I like to have all my music rated, and the ability to do it right on the player would be nice. The other thing, witch I think of as more of a bug then a new feature, is that the second a song starts to play it adds one to the play count. I think that the play count needs to be updated AFTER the song has finished playing or, if possible, it would be best sometime in the middle of the song. As it is now, if I *accidently* play a song, the play count goes up, even though I stop playback or change the song only a few seconds into it. Another thing that I would like to see improved is the creation of playlists on the device. I know you can save the "Now Playing" list as a playlist, but you can't reorganize the list. I would also like to see some of the other more asked for features, EAX would be nice for instance. I Don't know, just my two cents.

    Sounds like something went south in the OS or actual mp3 decoder in the player. I might try a Clean Up in Resuce mode then maybe a Reload OS. You can get into rescue mode by turning off the player and taking out the battery. Push the power switch in the on position and keep it held over while you re-insert the battery. It should boot into Rescue mode. Try a Clean Up. It should display a status % complete and only take a few moments. Try the songs again and see if there's the same problem.
    If that doesn't work download firmware v.0.03 and select Reload Firmware via USB.
    If either of these things don't work and the source files are clean it might be a bigger problem that might require a replacement.

  • Pkgfile rewritten in python with new feature

    hi.
    I have made a rewrite of pkgfile from the pkgtools package in python to speed up search by using a sqlite db file.
    $ pkgfile -h
    Usage: pkgfile [ACTIONS] [OPTIONS] filename
    Options:
    --version show program's version number and exit
    -h, --help show this help message and exit
    -b, --binaries only show files in a {s}bin/ directory. Works with -s,
    -l
    -c, --case-sensitive make searches case sensitive
    -g, --glob allow the use of * and ? as wildcards.
    -r, --regex allow the use of regex in searches
    -L, --local search only in the local pacman repository
    -v, --verbose enable verbose output
    ACTIONS:
    -i, --info provides information about the package owning a file
    -l, --list list files of a given package; similar to "pacman -Ql"
    -s, --search search which package owns a file
    -u, --update update to the latest filelist. This requires write
    permission to /var/cache/pkgtools/lists
    A new feature is that it does not download files list if there is no new update, saving bandwidth.
    It's a fork on github so you can try it there git://github.com/solsticedhiver/pkgtools.git
    Or just change the _gitroot variable to git://github.com/solsticedhiver/pkgtools.git in the PKGBUILD for pkgtools-git from AUR
    I exchanged with Daenyth which showed some interest for it. And made me correct my style code ;-). But we're still waiting for him to accept the pull request on github (to a new branch in its git repo ?), and to possibly merge it upstream later.
    Tell me what you think about it.
    If you find bugs, you could report it on github.

    After just changing the _gitroot make complained:
    ==> Starting make...
    rm: cannot remove `/home/karol/test/t1/pkgtools-git/src/pkgtools-build': No such file or directory
    Aborting...
    'touch pkgtools-build' "fixed it" ;P
    Core, extra, community and local repo were OK, but I got errors for other repos:

    Can I just post here or do I have to report it on github?
    This pkgfile implementations still takes about 30s to find what I'm looking for but does so w/o thrashing my disk - good work :-)

  • With All These New Feature Packs........

    With all the new feature packs that have been introduced here is a list of features that i would like to see introduced also.....
    1. A password protected folder for all media files as well as document files
    2. Better use of the gallery/albums....if an image is stored in the albums folder it shouldnt also appear (still) in the gallery section
    3. Instead of all images being shown in the gallery irrespective of them being stored on the phone memory or memory card, users should be able to "switch" between images on phone, images on memory....only the albums folder should show images irrespective.(this feature was on previous S60 models)
    4.dual sim card slots....i have two sims one for personal and one for business sometimes its a bit annoying having to take the battery out etc. to switch sims.Plus while i have my business sim in i could miss a personal call and vice verce
    5.Bluetooth AD2P becoming a standard on higher end phones
    6.Text to speech becoming a standard on (higher end/all) phones
    7.settings in the camera should not return to default after the application is closed...if i set my camera settings for "night mode" and close the camera application when i return to "night mode" my settings should still be there rather than me having to do this all over everytime.
    this is what i have come up with please add constructive ideas here.....

    I really like the idea of the dual sim and the gallery being split to the mem c\rd and phone mem.

  • 100 New Features in iPhone OS 3.0? WHAT ARE THEY!?

    I've noticed apple saying there are 100 new features in the iPhone OS 3.0. What exactly are they? I've watched the presentation video that was like over an hour long and there really are only maybe 20 new features mentioned. That is, as long as they're not counting 'cut, copy, and paste' as 5 different features since it works for mail, safari, notes, etc.
    is there a list of the 100 new features? cause i want to know them

    I'm so simple that all I want is universal ringtones across all apps that have "alert" sounds (text messages, email, calendar- already available on phone calls & clock). Hate the provided sounds Apple gives us, would like to be able to assign specific music or self-made sounds so that I can hear them in a loud area, that are continual until answered, and that can be set as app-specific, just like ringtones can be caller-specific. Most phones have this feature, and I would use it daily, unlike many of the new features being touted. Anyone seen any mention of this (I watched the presentation, not mentioned). Oh, and please don't be a troll and tell me to contact Apple with a request- I do it on a weekly basis. Just looking for info, not basic noob advice.
    BTW, I am soooo happy that MMS will finally be provided, as it will put an end to the "old" technology vs. use an email to send pictures argument so prevalent here. That particular back-and-forth has become quite aggravating. (Don't really care that much about MMS, rarely use it, but if it puts those arguments down, good for Apple.)

  • IOS7 "hundreds of new features"

    this was stated in the software update description, just before I upgraded.
    but I can't find these "hundreds" of new features.
    does anyone have a list of them, so I can fully appreciate this super-awesome OS ?

    Thanks for this Wjosten, but you’ve pointed me at this article before and it doesn’t answer my question : what are the “hundreds of new features” as stated by Apple ?
    In this article I count 208 features in total but most of these are sub-features of existing features – such as “new animation” for “spotlight”.
    And of these features, I count only 5 or 6 which could be considered truly “new”
    So, Apple have actually misled their customers.
    IOS 7 is not full of new features.
    It has some very good, but only a few, new features.
    But on the downside, it has a hideous new paintjob which can’t be reconfigured - and some features, such as calendar and reminders, which have been ruined.
    I want my phoine to be useful tool, not a toy -  but, hey, Apple knows best
    Anyway, just wanted to make my point before this posting is removed as being “irrelevant”

  • What are the new features for the latest version ...

    what are the new features for the latest version of N6300? can you cite me the newest features?

    The latest update was just bug fixes and improved stability, no new features. That is nearly always the case with series 40 phones like the 6300.
    Nokia do not make the changelogs available publicly but often they do appear on unofficial sites. Searching google may provide you with more detailed info that cannot be posted here.
