Dumb question about searching these discussion boards

I used to be able to search these boards, but now I can't find where to do this. I tried using the top right corner search box, but that searches the Apple site for everything except discussions.
Am I blind, mad or has something changed?
Judging by my wife's comments, the first seems most likely.
Grateful for anyone that can point me in the right direction, and give me a white stick.

In the mean time you can use google with "site:discussions.apple.com" as part of the search query.

  • AutoSPInstaller - Question about Search Topology

    Hello,
    I would deploy a new sharepoint infrastructure with autospinstaller and i have some questions about search topology.
    This infrastructure will host at end 2 EDM (10-20TO) and probably some user sites.
    I will provision 2 WFE and 2 APPS.
    Search Topology (4 servers) =>
    - Crawl Component :
    SRVA & SRVB
    - Query Component :
    SRVC & SRVD
    - Search Query and Site Settings Service :
    SRVA & SRVB
    - Admin Component :
    SRVA & SRVB
    - Index Component :
    SRVC & SRVD
    - Content Processing Component :
    SRVA & SRVB
    - Analytics Porcessing Component :
    SRVA & SRVB
    I read many articles about this subject but all were different !
    Anyone can apply my choice or make me a proposition ?

    Hi,
    I just want confirme that the infrastructure is correct before deploy it. Do i really need to isolate admin component, for now i put it on only one app server.
    For "Distributed caching", i planned to install it on both WFE servers.
    Thank you for your help.

  • I Have 1 Question About The Apple Discussion Message Boards?

    I Think Apple.com & Apple Discussion Message Boards needs to come up with an Apple App for Apple iPhone & Apple iPod Touch 1 reason is cause I Try to go on The Apple Discussion Message Boards on My Safari on My Apple iPhone 4 32GB from Verizon Wireless & The Internet is very Slow on there so maybe if Apple.com & The Apple Discussion Message Boards had an App Specialty for The Apple Discussion Message Boards for Apple iPhone 4 & Apple iPod Touch maybe then The Apple Discussion Message Boards will Run more Faster cause My Apps for My Apple iPhone 4 32GB From Verizon Wireless are always faster then The Internet on My Apple iPhone 4 in Safari, I Hardly use My Safari in My Apple iPhone 4 cause it's always slow, Sometimes it's Fast but sometimes more it's Slow, so maybe I Thought we should make an Apple Discussion Message Boards iPhone App for Apple iPhone & Apple iPod Touch? it was just an Idea it was more a Suggestion to come up with an iDea of it & I Did not mean to post this in the wrong forum if I Did? Maybe My iDea's & Suggestions may not be great? but at least I Tried, you don't have to come up with any Apple Discussion Message Boards Apps if you don't want to? it's really up to you or whoever creates this part of the Forum? i'm only trying to give you some help or Suggestion or an iDea whatever you call it & i'm sorry for posting this when i know it will get deleted maybe? or maybe in The Apple Discussion Message Boards we can have a Apple Suggestion Forum for Future iDea's or whatever it may be that you want to call it? maybe some people would like to post there Thoughts & Suggestions & Future idea's to Apple on here of what they would like & want to see as long as there is no Bashing & trashing & arguing with each other & i'm sorry if I Got carried a way to much if I Did? just thought I Would have a Suggestion/Idea on an Apple Discussion Boards App for Apple iPhone & iPod Touch maybe someday on The Apple iTunes in The App Store? but if you don't think my Suggestions are so great? its ok i'm Sorry I Bothered anyone on this Forum about this, ok peace & take care from Byron.

    Apple sells unlocked iphones now.
    They can be used with any compatible/GSM carrier.
    Iphones are not compatible at all with Sprint.

  • Dumb question about cycling a battery. Sorry!

    I just received by new mac book pro replacement battery today and I have some questions regarding it. First of all, my original battery lasted 2 yrs, 2 mos. I purchased another apple battery for my 15 inch mac book pro (computer originally purch. Aug. 2007). I've seen on these boards that I'm supposed to "cycle" the battery once a week to get the maximum life out of it. I think a cycle means using the battery until it's power is used up and then charge up to 100% again. Is that right? Anyway, my question is, "What is the proper care for this new battery? Does it damage it to have it plugged in when it is fully charged? Or should I always keep it unplugged and use the battery until it runs out and then charge it again? And what does it mean to cycle it once a week, if I'm already using the battery and recharging it when needed?" Sorry if these are dumb questions. I'm not really computer savvy! Thanks.

    You should use the battery for a while every day but not drain it right down, before re-connecting the power and re-charging it to 95%+ this is not a complete cycle but partial/normal cycling.
    _Every couple of months_ you should re-calibrate the battery which means you keep using it until it goes into emergency sleep itself (you will see a warning then 5 minutes later it will go off by itself) and then _leave it in this state for at least 5 hours_ before you re-connect the power supply and fully charge it (without unplugging) - this is a proper re-calibration.

  • A dumb question about wifi...

    I'm not as 'literate' as some are when it comes to computer technology...but here is the question...If I walk into a place that has wifi and my iphone is set with wifi ON, how will I know if there is a charge for using the wifi? Will my iphone automatically kick into the wifi or will there appear an invitation to pay a fee to connect...and how do you pay and do you have to have a password and if so, how do you get that? I know....dumb question...Thanks.

    Not a dumb question at all.
    First of all, set your iPhone up like this:
    1) Go to Settings on the main screen (looks like gears)
    2) Click on "Wi-Fi" (second option from the top)
    3) At the bottom of this page (Which should say "Wi-Fi Networks" at the top) turn "Ask to Join Networks" to the "ON" position.
    Now when you walk into a place that has Wi-Fi, your iPhone will display a little window that asks you whether you want to join the network or not.
    In some places, you may even see a list of more than one Wi-Fi network to join. This is quite common in New York City. The reason is because so many people have Wi-Fi in there apartments, and they all live so close together, that sometime your iPhone can detect multiple networks. The coffee shop near my apartment has their own network, but I can also connect to the Wi-Fi network in my apartment because I only live about 50 feet away.
    Anyway, when you see the list of Networks to join, you may notice a little padlock symbol next to some of them. This means these are closed networks that require a password to connect to. (My network is "Closed", ie requires a password so that everyone in the coffee shop next door doesn't use my internet).
    Networks that DO NOT have the little lock symbol are "Open" which means you can join them without a password. But there is a catch... A lot of coffee shops have open networks, but as soon as you try to browse the web, they redirect your browser to their own page, no matter what web address you enter. Basically, they are letting you connect to their network without a password, but not letting you browse the internet without giving them some money.
    So (as the previous poster said) the page that the coffee shops redirects you to, usually has instructions, and of course a place to put in a credit card. Once you do all that, then you can browse the internet without getting redirected to their little payment page. Its sort of confusing because you don't need a password to connect to their "open" network, but you do need one to browse any web pages. How you get the password differs from coffee shop to coffee shop, but usually they give it to you right inside your web browser once you give them your credit card number.
    T-Mobile provides wireless for Starbucks (at least in a lot of places they do). So once you have an account with t-mobile, you can use it in any starbucks or "T-mobile hotspot"
    Now this all sounds kind of complicated, but more and more these days, you can just walk into a place, find an open network (one without a lock next to it) and start browsing without being redirected or dealing with credit cards. Basically these places are providing free internet to try to attract customers.
    Good luck
    P.S. Wi-Fi eats up battery life. If you aren't going to be using it to browse web pages, you can go into settings, then Wi-Fi, and turn Wi-Fi off. This will save you battery life, but you have to remember to turn it back on. Even without Wi-Fi on, you can still browse the internet if you see a little "E" at the top of your screen. The E stands for the AT&Ts Edge network, which isn't as fast as Wi-Fi, but covers pretty much everywhere that your phone can get a signal.

  • Question about searching

    Hi all,
    I'm considering Oracle BDBJE for a project that stores visited url's (data) based on a key of ip-address (4 bytes) combined with a date (long) to make the keys unique.
    If want to search on date (ignore ip) do I have to make a secondary database that has the date of the visited url's as primary index?
    Does a method like Cursor.getSearchKeyRange, if supplied with partial key, always search a the beginning of the key? Or could I use it to search for a date by only supplying the date-part of the key? Prop. in this case the bytes for the date will be mistaken for the bytes of the ip-address that comes first in the key.
    Thanks for any help.
    regards,
    Jeroen

    Hi Jeroen,
    I'm not sure I have all of your data model yet, but I think you've given us enough for me to say you should likely try one or possibly two secondary databases.
    If you have not already done so you should review the documentation on Secondary Indexes as found here:
    http://www.oracle.com/technology/documentation/berkeley-db/je/GettingStartedGuide/indexes.html
    Inserting/Modifying records is faster without using a secondary index. But the queries that you have identified would perform better with secondary indexes. But you should experiment with a few different approaches and compare that with your performance goals.
    Also, if you have not already thought about this, I would consider using DPL to implement this, especially since you will be evaluating alternative database designs. You will find that the implementation time is faster and you can also make changes quickly.
    http://www.oracle.com/technology/documentation/berkeley-db/je/PersistenceAPI/BerkeleyDB-JE-Persistence-GSG.pdf
    You know your data best, but based on the info you provided here are my thoughts/alternatives:
    Primary Database key = IP/Date or Maybe Date/IP is better if the Secondary for IP address exists
    data = URL plus other data not sure what
    Secondary Database Key = URL (I left out date because you said it is not likely that the same URL will exist for multiple dates).
    Possible Secondary Database Key = IP address (Which URL's were visited by IP X).
    Again, I think you may want to try out something like this a model your inserts and also your query performance. Feel free to post further questions about any results you are getting as you move forward.
    Also, if you have not already seen this I would keep this URL handy and consult with it before you post:

    I hope this helps!

  • Dumb Question about multiple BSSIDs

    This is probably a dumb question, but enquiring minds want to know...
    When using Yosemite's built-in Wireless Diagnostics scan I see many unique WiFi BSSIDs (MAC addresses) associated with my Time Capsule: 5 for my Guest Network and 6 for my "main" network. I see that not all have the same 802.11 protocol, but not all have unique 802.11 protocols. Also I see my "main" network is the 802.11ac network.
    So my questions are:
    - Why are there so many different BSSIDs and how should I interpret them?
    - Which of these BSSIDs are "relevant" that I should pay attention to?
    Thanks,
    Kevin

    Why are there so many different BSSIDs and how should I interpret them?
    The 5 GHz band on the main network is one unique BSSID
    The 2.4 GHz band on the main network is one unique BSSID
    If you have the Guest Network setup......
    The 5 GHz band on the guest network is one unique BSSID
    The 2.4 GHz band on the guest network is one unique BSSID
    If you have multiple AirPort routers, repeat the information above for each router.
    Which of these BSSIDs are "relevant" that I should pay attention to?
    Personally, I pay no attention to this, but some users place great importance on this.
    The BSSID tells you which AirPort.....if you have multiple AirPorts....and which band....2.4 GHz or 5 GHz.....that you are connected to at the current time....as well as whether you are connected to the "main" network, or the "guest" network.....if you have enabled the guest function.

  • Dumb question about user_sdo_geom_metadata DIMINFO entries

    I'm sure that this is a dumb question!
    I create a new entry in user_sdo_geom_metadata as follows...
    INSERT INTO USER_SDO_GEOM_METADATA
    VALUES ( 'PR_A', 'GEOM',
    MDSYS.SDO_DIM_ARRAY(
    MDSYS.SDO_DIM_ELEMENT('X',190000.0,640000.0, 0.05),
    MDSYS.SDO_DIM_ELEMENT('Y',120000.0,680000.0, 0.05)
    NULL );
    But when I select the DIMINFO from the table...
    SQL> select diminfo from user_sdo_geom_metadata a where table_name = 'PR_A';
    DIMINFO(SDO_DIMNAME, SDO_LB, SDO_UB, SDO_TOLERANCE)
    SDO_DIM_ARRAY(SDO_DIM_ELEMENT('X', 190000, 640000, 0), SDO_DIM_ELEMENT('Y', 1200
    00, 680000, 0))
    The sdo_dim_element and sdo_tolerance
    elements show no decimal places.
    Is this because I have not set some
    display number format option in SQLPLUS
    or for some other reason?
    regards
    Simon

    Simon,
    If you are using an old sqlplus client
    (815) then you won't be able to see the decimal places in the diminfo object.
    But if you hace a newer (816/817) sqlplus
    client you should be able to see the decimal places.
    If you are not seeing them in these clients
    then there might be some format paramter set
    to show numbers without decimals.
    You can do a
    show numformat
    in sqlplus to see if there is any format set for that paramter.

  • Maybe a dumb question, about which power connectors to use, but....

    This may sound like an incredibly dumb question, but here goes anyway....
    I upgraded my system a few weeks ago, and will be slapping in a new ATI X850 Pro AGP card in a few days.  My current graphics card is a p.o.s. Radeon 9550, so it doesn't have its own power connector or even a fan.  My PSU is a dual-rail Antec model, and I'm wondering if it should matter any about how many or which devices I have connected to each power cable set.  My psu came with cables to attach, only 2 of the 4 though are the 4-pin molex - the other 2 are pci-e power connectors I believe.  Should it make a difference which or how many devices I connect to each cable?  For ease of plugging in, I believe my DVDRW and CDRom are using 1 cable, and my ide drive and floppy are using the other cable. Also, I have a pci fan and a case fan running off 1 or the other.  I'm likely to jump the power cable for the video card off the one the hard drive is using, unless someone has some suggestion to offer to the contrary.
    If it makes a difference, can anyone recommend how they would have them connect?
    My list of devices to plug in would be:
    1)IDE HDD
    2)Floppy
    3)CDRom
    4)DVDRW
    5)Case Fan
    6)PCI Fan
    7)Video Card
    Thanks for any thoughts!  SAB - you seem to be the man on builds.....any ideas? 

    Well, I put the new card in and connected it on a cable with the optical drives.  Also, I had unwittingly connected my cdrom on the same ide channel as my hdd    , so I changed that so both optical drives are on the secondary ide.
    So far, so good.  3dMark03 jumped up from 3300 with an overclocked Radeon 9550 to 10570 with the stock Radeon 850 Pro 
    I wish I could find some local source to purchase additional molex cords for my Antec SmartPower 2.0 psu, though - I've got 2 more 'outlets' just sitting there on the psu doing nothing, because the other cables are for pci-e, and I'm not using pci-e......  If I could buy some additional molex cables to plug in like the ones that came with it, I could have the vid card on its own cable....

  • Question about Kurts comments discussing the seperation of AIA & CDP - Test Lab Guide: Deploying an AD CS Two-Tier PKI Hierarchy - Kurt L Hudson MSFT

    Question about the sentence in bold. What is the meaning behind this comment?
    How would you separate the role of the AIA and CDP from a CA subordinate server? I can see where I add a CES and CEP server which has those as well, but I don't completely understand his comment. Because in this second step, (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/tlg-key-based-renewal.aspx)
    he shows how to implement CES and CEP.
    This is from the guide located at: http://technet.microsoft.com/library/hh831348.aspx
    Step 3: Configure APP1 to distribute certificates and CRLs
    In the extensions of the root CA, it was stated that the CRL from the root CA would be available via http://www.contoso.com/pki. Currently, there is not a PKI virtual directory on APP1, so one must be created.
    In a production environment, you would typically separate the issuing CA role from the role of hosting the AIA and CDP.
    However, this lab combines both in order to reduce the number of resources needed to complete the lab.
    Thanks,
    James

    My concern is, they have a 2-3k base of xp systems, over this year they are migrating them to Windows 7. During this time they will also be upgrading hardware for the existing windows 7 machines. The turnover of certificates are going to be high, which
    from what I've read here, it worries me.
    http://blogs.technet.com/b/askds/archive/2009/06/24/implementing-an-ocsp-responder-part-i-introducing-ocsp.aspx
    The application then can go to those locations to download the CRL. There are, however, some potential issues with this scenario. CRLs over time can get rather large
    depending on the number of certificates issued and revoked. If CRLs grow to a large size, and many clients have to download CRLs, this can have a negative impact on network performance. More importantly, by
    default Windows clients will timeout after 15 seconds while trying to download a CRL. Additionally,
    CRLs have information about every currently valid certificate that has been revoked, which is an excessive amount of data given the fact that an application may only need the revocation status for a few certificates. So,
    aside from downloading the CRL, the application or the OS has to parse the CRL and find a match for the serial number of the certificate that has been revoked.
    With the above limitations, which mostly revolve around scalability, it is clear that there are some drawbacks to using CRLs. Hence, the introduction of Online Certificate
    Status Protocol (OCSP). OCSP reduces the overhead associated with CRLs. There are server/client components to OCSP: The OCSP responder, which is the server component, and the OCSP Client. The OCSP Responder accepts status
    requests from OCSP Clients. When the OCSP Responder receives the request from the client it then needs to determine the status of the certificate using the serial number presented by the client. First the OCSP Responder determines if it has any cached responses
    for the same request. If it does, it can then send that response to the client. If there is no cached response, the OCSP Responder then checks to see if it has the CRL issued by the CA cached locally on the OCSP. If it does, it can check the revocation status
    locally, and send a response to the client stating whether the certificate is valid or revoked. The response is signed by the OCSP Signing Certificate that is selected during installation. If the OCSP does not have the CRL cached locally, the OCSP Responder
    can retrieve the CRL from the CDP locations listed in the certificate. The OCSP Responder then can parse the CRL to determine the revocation status, and send the appropriate response to the client.

  • How do I get refund for App not performing well? Report problem link takes me to these discussion boards

    I downloaded this App for ringtones (Ringtones 500.000) , purchased a full version of it, so I should be able to download unlimited number of ringtones. The problem is, it won't let me download any ringtones after 10, which is how free version of this App performs.
    I have contacted developers, but they keep sending the instruction book to me with step-by-step inforamtion, which is out of date itself, but that is not a problem, I think in my case.
    When I try to report a problem to Apple , using hte link on my receipt, it just takes me to a page with discussion boards and FAQ.
    I would like to get $1.99 back instead of troubleshoot this any longer, because it seems App help support people are not understanding the problem.
    I did try re-loading the App -didn't help either.
    Thank you!

    Apple's policy on sales of digital content is that all sales are final. If however you wish to appeal to Apple, select the content which is causing a problem and use the 'Report a problem' button in Your Purchase History on your computer.

  • Round trip workflow with proxies between Premiere and AE / a more general question about how these programs work?

    Hi all,
    I'm new to editing with proxies in Premiere and have some questions about how to handle the relationship with After Effects. Say I have a rough cut (with proxies) and I want to send it to AE to do some effects. The simplest thing to do seems to be to replace the proxies with the originals in Premiere, send the project to AE and do my thing. But if I then want to send the project back to Premiere, it will involve the original files, which are too machine-intensive for me to edit. In theory, it seems like there should be a way to send the project with original footage to AE, do effects, send it back to Premiere, and then replace it with proxies to do further editing while retaining the effects.
    This leads to a confusion about how AE works. When I do an effect, am I correct in assuming that it does nothing to the original file? If that's the case, it seems like it shouldn't matter (in the editing stage) what file AE "applies" an effect to (proxy or original). But I feel like there's a hitch in this workflow. The same question could also be asked about going back and forth in Speed Grade.
    Perhaps there is no real answer to this and the best option is to save effects and grading for after I have picture lock, but sometimes that's not entirely possible or convenient, etc.
    Hopefully this makes some sense—It's a little hard to explain.
    Thanks.

  • Dumb question about browser dectection

    I have a web application that looks awesome in IE but in Firefox it looks clunky and blocky. What I need to perform is a validation to see what browser the client is using. I have done this before on simple html pages javascript browser sniffing. Well it seems that I can't for the life of me to be able to get this working in Creator.
    My web project is a Sun Creator Web application. My OS is Windows
    Does anyone have any idea or references that you could supply to me?
    The following code works in an html environment but in a jsp I cant get the different style sheets to work.
    document.write("<link id="link1" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="/WebDemoExtractor/resources/introductionFireFox.css" /> ");
    U jave tried many variations of the following
    document.write("<ui:link binding='#{introduction.link2}' id='link2' url='/resources/introductionFireFox.css'/>")
    I have tried performing many variations with the the above and I have had no success.
    Is it even possible to perform this function??
    Thank you

    Not a dumb question at all.
    I think you mean how is it possible to view YouTube videos in Safari on iPad, right?
    Basically, YouTube senses the browser you're using. Because Safari on iPad doesn't support Flash, YouTube delivers the movie in a format the iPad can play (like H.264, as a previous post mentioned). This happens with YouTube videos embedded on other web sites, too.
    I hope this helps.
    I was in an Apple Store a few days ago, and a teenage kid really wanted an iPad. His dad said, "but it doesn't play flash, so you won't get to see YouTube videos that you love." Kid said, something expletive deleted.
    The son then picked up the iPad, and he clicked on the YouTube icon. Walked out of the store with it. Sales guy and I laughed. Made my day.

  • A question about search level

    In the parameter :"DEADLOCK_DETECTION".
    It's explain include a substantive it's named :"search depth".
    I can't find the explain about "search depth".                                                   Please help me.
    thanks

    Hi,
    the search depth specifies how far the deadlock detection should search for the reason of the deadlock. A higher value would search deeper for the reason, but would also increase the time needed to search (and find).
    We normally recommend <b>against</b> changing the default value of this parameter. Normally also share locks are used, where we can't really specify all tasks that hold sharelocks (as opposed to deadlocks consisting only of tasks holding only exclusive locks), but only the number of tasks in total. If the deadlock isn't found, the Request_Timeout comes into effect.
    Does that help you understand this parameter?
