Does Microsoft have any iAnywhere Mobilink like tools?
Hi guys
We have a project that involves 2 or more disconnected field worker that need to sync data to a master repository. The requirements are still evolving, but it's possible there may be complex rules where a record in the master repository may only be
changed if some other condition exists.
I worked on a similar project back in the early 2000s and at that time we used Sybase's Mobilink platform to establish those update rules and sync the data. I'm wondering if Microsoft has similar technologies now? I realize I can write the rules
manually for the sync in an SSIS package, but wanted to know if anybody can recommend other means of accomplishing this?
Tks
Steven
It is called merge replication. SSIS will work, but is not scalable.

Does Microsoft have anything even remotely like JCP?
I know this is an odd place to post a question like this. But I was wondering if Microsoft had anything even remotely like Sun's Java Community Process Program ( http://www.jcp.org/ )?
It seems like such a great idea, and if Microsoft is going to compete with Java, it would seem like a good idea for them too. Not having it would be a real turn off for .NET, to me anyway.
AnthonyHi,
I have great disdain fo MS (I do not like MS), but what they have done with Visual Dot NET is beyond cmprehension.
I have to admit, that part of it is a pure copy of java, with a few changes and called C##.
It is actually very good, sadly!
So, is MS competing? Too right they are.
It appears that the big players , i.e. IBM, SUN and MS are developing together.
That's nice,
best

Does Apple have any good way of managing iPhones for business?
I finally broke down and allowed iPhones into our company when Apple introduced the ability to provision phones like phones (e.g. don't have to teather them to a computer to set up). This and the "business" management tools opened the door, so we got about 30 of them.
WHAT A HUGE MISTAKE!!!!
Apple is now going backward. When a phone comes into our shop, we have to load up iTunes and get the phone to sync before we can do simple things like wipe the phone or troubleshoot "why did my bluetooth quit working". All of their "enterprise focus" seems to be around security and app control, with nothing I've seen for the day-to-day keeping things running. (Not saying app control and secuirty are unimportant, just not enough).
Does Apple have any good business management tools that I'm missing? I know about MDM, but too much setup for a relatively small number of phones. Besides, my understanding is the MDM only does app management / security policy. Right now we use Apple's stand-alone configurator. Fine for pushing policy and apps, but useless for troubleshooting and day-to-day management (like resetting a phone back to factory configs).
Also, is my carrior correct that Apple will not allow them to replace phones that have gone bad under warranty? They told me for the iPhones we have to physically take them to an Apple store for troubleshooting / replacement even after 100% identifying the issue! That is an hour (at least) wasted to send one of my folks to the store. I know we don't just have a bad carrior, becaue they happily send out replacement on other brands after troubleshooting over the phone.
I actually do like the overall look/feel of the iPhones. But unless Apple becomes much more corporate-friendly, I can only recommend that companies refuse to purchase any iDevice. BYOD, sure...but when you buy tens or hundreds of phones stick to Android, Blackberry, or even (sorry) Microsoft based devices.Does not seem to work that way for us. We plug the phone in, and the first thing iTunes does is say the phone needs to be "authorized for this computer". It also states that the phone can only be authorized for x computers.
It then goes through it's jig while we wait, and finally comes up with the phone. Only then can we try to wipe / update the phone. We do stop the sync process, that automatically starts wanting to run. Maybe has to do with a version difference between what you use and what we use. I did notice that an older version of iTunes seemed a bit friendlier, but would not support our iPads.
However, when we were troubleshooting the bug where wireless / bluetooth quits working it was quite a bit more difficult than this for a phone a user handed us. Troubleshooting steps required that the phone be "restored" in iTunes. However, iTunes insisted on our providing a password that neither we nor the user knew. Maybe just learning curve, but it took about an hour before we were able to get that phone to a point where we could reset it.
Here is a sincere question for you, since you say you support a fleet of phones. Do you really NOT get annoyed when your tech has to take a iPhone to a computer with iTunes, plug it in, and work from there whenever there is a user issue that needs to have the phone wiped back to factory standard? This compared to being able to punch a few buttons on a different phone, right there in the users office, then hand it back to the user and say "your are fixed".
My only assumptions are that IT staff want to solve issues as quickly and efficiently as possible. Requireing a tech to deal with iTunes for simple procedures is not, IMHO, "as quick and efficient as possible". -
Does Arch have any tool to check what services needs restart?
Does Arch have any tool to check what services needs restart after software update just like `checkrestart` from Debian flavoured distros or `needs-restarting` from Red Hat ones?
Maybe there is some other temporary file that is not a library but deleted that slips through. I got my awk version now to replace my old hack code.
__pids="$(sudo lsof -F pfn |
awk '
/^n/{
# if this file is a deleted library or binary, show it
if (del == 1 && match($0, "bin|lib")) {
print pid;
del=0;
del = 0;
/^fDEL$/{
# the next file is deleted
del = 1;
/^p/{
# we check a new process
del = 0
pid = substr($0, 2)
}' |
sort -un |
paste -sd ' '
)" && [ -n "$__pids" ] && ps -p "$__pids" && unset __pids || unset __pids
Edit: Reorder logic, don't execute ps if no processes are found.

I would like to reload IOS5.1.1 on my ipad2 does anyone have any ideas other than buying a refurb?
You cannot customize the Safari toolbar on the iPad.
What you can do on the iPad is go to Settings>Safari>Always show Bookmarks Bar>On and that will add a bookmarks bar on to the Safari browser. -
Does Anyone have any idea why this happened?
Did something happen to it like sliding off a table or something similar? You might want to consider making an appointment at your nearest Genius Bar and have them look at it.

Resizing a TIFF File: Overwriting TIFFFields does not have any effect
Hi,
I have some TIFF files that I am receiving through a FAX server. Some of the TIFF files have an image length of *1077 pixels and a DPI of 200x98*. These images open fine in generic viewers like Microsoft Image Viewer and IrfanView and the image size in the information dialog shows up fine (1752x2158). But when I open the images in a LeadTools viewer (that works off TIFF Header tags), the image appears stretched out.
I am trying to re-sample the image to make it a true Letter size image (1700x2200) with resolution of 200x200. I have been able to set the TAG_X_RESOLUTION and TAG_Y_RESOLUTION which I can see changed in the Tag Viewer. But changing the following tags does not have any effect on the resulting image:
TAG_IMAGE_WIDTH
TAG_IMAGE_LENGTH
TAG_ROWS_PER_STRIP
the following is the code I am using, I have tried all possible ways (removing TIFFFeilds and then adding them), but it has no effect. The last options is to use a Print Driver from within Java and Print the image (that re-samples it into a 8.5x11 inch image with 200 DPI). At this point, I am just curious about writing TIFFFields with images. Any ideas are appreciated:
Thanks,
Manuj

The resulting image with this carries the updated DPI values (200x200) but still carries the old values of 1752x1077, the length being exactly half of what Irfan view is showing.
Edited by: Manuj on Nov 2, 2010 10:48 AMYour problem for some reason sounds familiar.
EDIT
Ok, now I remember. Your post is like this one in the old forums,
http://forums.sun.com/thread.jspa?forumID=540&threadID=5425983
Basically, for viewing purposes Irfanview scales the image's height by 2 and changes the dpi to *200x196*. It does this to achieve a 'square' pixel. The image that appears on screen now looks roughly how a printer would print it. However, the image data is still the same squished 1752x1077 image. -

My MacBook5,1 pro screen blinks during startup. Does anyone have any suggestions?
I bought my Mac in December 2008 and for the first time today, I see my computer screen blinking when I started up the computer. Does anyone have any recommendations?
When you say the only tool available was to restart... do you mean Disk Utility wasn't there?
"Try Disk Utility
1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu at the top of the screen. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.
3. Click the First Aid tab.
4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
5. Click Repair. Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
Then try a Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
(Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)
I also tried safe booting and holding down the options key..
Shift key invokes a "Safe Boot", the Option key should bring up the Boot Options screen where available boot drives are shown.
Do you have another Mac with Firewire around and does this one boot into FireWire target disk mode...
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1661
If so this Mac will look like a big Firewire drive to the other one, and if the other one is the same OS or higher you can try Disk Utility on the other one to attempt repair of the iMac's drive. -

I've been in an administrative job at my university, in which I needed to be able to access lots of past email conversations. I ended up saving *everything* religiously, by copying each email or conversation into an "On My Mac" folder on either my home or office machine, flagging it as copied, then unflagging it and moving it to a like folder on the other machine. As a result I'v now got a trillion folders for various aspects of my job, filled with quite a few messages that I probably no longer even need, but they're way too many to go through and delete one by one. Unfortunately, I haven't made much use of the iCloud folders, but I'm so tired of having to essentially manually sync my stored mail in the manner I just described, that I'm thinking of starting to file everything to iCloud folders. The downside of that is that obviously if the internet is down and a given folder wasn't refreshed before it went down, I won't have access to the saved mail.
Moreover, I'm about to step down from the admin post -- within about 6 months a lot of what I saved won't be needed at all, and going forward, I won't need to save nearly the same quantity of messages for later reference. I'd like to come up with some viable "triage" strategies for limiting the mail I do save.
This is really just an open question: Does anyone have any good mail filing and storage techniques that you'd be willing to share? I'm especially interested in criteria you use for what you save and don't save, and where/how you save it.Well, the one set up on exchange 2k3 is now working fine, although no changes were made on either the iPhone or the exchange side, so that's fun, but it still is throwing errors when connecting to the other 2 exchange accounts. The common elements are that both non-functioning exchange accounts are google apps for business accounts. So is one of the ones that's working, by the way. The settings on both accounts are the same as the one that's working, and both worked fine before the 8.3 upgrade. I have no issue accessing both of these accounts on my ipad which is currently on 8.2.x. If it's not the iphone OS at fault, I'm at a loss as to what it could be.
