DV7 keeps blinks 4 times in Caps Lock, even after motherboard swap

OK guys, I really need a good advice here, because I am going nuts on this case.
I have a Pavilion DV7 in which the motherboard died (Caps Lock keeps blinking infinitely when power on). I then replaced the motherboard with a new one, but the new motherboard then blinks 4 times when powering on (after CPU cooler stops). According to HP that means "graphics failure". Then I got the new motherboard replaced (under warranty) with another new one. This second new motherboard also blinks 4 times when powering on. This can't be right, because what is the odds for receiving two motherboards with similar defects. None of the motherboards work with external monitor (VGA) neither.
Now I wonder if a defective LCD or LCD inverter could cause this 4 times blink?

Well the promise is that they will fix it for a year. HP did not make the hard drives so you cannot really blame them on that although the motherboard is their issue. I would say keep rolling with it until the warranty is out. If you have another issue ask to escalate to a supervisor, but HP hews pretty close to the terms of the warranty. A few states have non-auto lemon laws and you might do a bit of a google search to see just what your rights may be in the place you live.

Data lock even after commit work and wait

Hi Experts,
Data is still locked even after commit work and wait step has run, which made me very confusing.
The following are the details:
These steps are in a FOP.
Step1: Change Move-in Date of a move-in document in background after get the new move-date from user.
Step2: Run BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT and pass the wait parameter.
Step3: Bring move-in document transaction to the user for other information changes.
After the user confirms the changes and presses SAVE button, error message shows that the move-in document is still locked. But no other transaction is opened for the specified move-doc changing.
Does any1 have any idea on this? How can I solve this issue?
Thanks in advance and points will be rewarded.
Vincent

Hi,
Normally every BAPI will work on Update task so that the data will be updated once the commit work is done. For the commit work, we will normally call the bapi function module - BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT. It should work.
In your case, just try the below option:
Please call the bapi - BAPI_ACC_DOCUMENT_POST & BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT in a seperate function module and call this function module in your program (just pass the import / export / table parameters accordingly).
For the information, I had once a similar type of issue and it got solved once I did like the above.

My HP DV7 4107 doesn't work. Caps Lock flashing in loop

Hi, my HP (Entertainment Notebook HP Pavillion dv7-4107sl) has a serious problem and has stopped working.
The only signals of life are the Caps Lock (that flashing in loop), the fan and the CD player.
I tried to restore the BIOS through the USB Flash Drive and through resetting the jumper.
The laptop returns to work, but after few hours the problem returns. I don't have any idea how to fix it.
Thanks for the help.

IPhone 6 Plus no longer shows time on the lock screen after iOS 8.2 update

Question as seen above. after updating my iPhone 6 Plus to iOS 8.2, it no longer shows the current time on the lock screen. It also takes a couple of seconds for it to load the status bar at the top of the screen. Restoring from iTunes didn't fix it. Please help!

My cursor keeps blinking every 30 secs or so even when no app is being used. How can I stop this?

Hi there!
I hope you can help me with this. Just today, my cursor keeps on blinking (or loading?) every 30 seconds or so for no reason at all. At first I thought it was the auto-save for my MS Word, but even after I closed it, it's still blinking even when I'm not
using any apps. Tried killing spooler in task manager as I saw in other forums but it's still blinking.
Would very much appreciate your help.
I'm using a Toshiba Satellite L40D-A, Windows 8.
Thanks in advance!

Hey Readie85,
Thanks for the question. This alert usually appears if there is debris in your dock connector. Check to make sure it is free of any debris:
“This cable or accessory is not certified and may not work reliably with this iPhone."
"This accessory is not supported by this device."
If either of these alerts appear and nothing is connected to the dock connector, make sure that the dock connector is free of debris.

SEM BPS locking even after user switches to a new variable value

Hi,
This is locking related question & appreciate any kind of suggestion.
Users are locking previously planned variable value even after changing to a new value which is causing another user with a locking issue.
I've a variable GROUP defined at planning level & included in the planning folder.
let's say USER1 is planning for GROUP1 & saved the data after planning.
same user has changed the variable to GROUP2 & is planning now without leaving UPSPL session.
at this point, when USER2 tries to plan for GROUP1 & is faced with a message "USER1 is currently processing the data".
currently, USER1 is planning for GROUP2 right? so, why it's still giving locking message (locking GROUP1).
I even followed SAP note 635244 & created a DB table & included GROUP characteristic in to the table but of not much help.
even after this, I still see that USER1 is locking both GROUP1 & GROUP2 in report UPC_ENQUEUE_READ.
Appreciate if any one can share your ideas to deal this kind of issue.

Hi Hari,
You indicated in your 1st post, that User 1 is able to access both Group 1 and Group 2. I am assuming in your configuration, multiple users share the same values in the Group variable and they are making selections on execution of your planning application.
If this is the case, User 1 switching to Group 2 using, e.g., a drop-down menu does not remove the lock on Group 1. Hence User 2 will get the lock message.
You defining a table in DDIC only specifies Group as a lock relevant characteristic. It will not prevent locking in this fashion.
The probable options could be:
1. Consider dividing Groups amongst users, and use user-specific values for your variable;
2. Consider additional characteristic that will separate data sets.
The central question I would ask about this planning process, is why would different users be editing the same group at the same time? Is there a way to differentiate their planning needs? That might help in your modeling.
Hope this helps.

I keep getting the error message "could not open a scratch file because the file is locked" even after resetting my preferences. I have to use Ctrl, Alt, Shift to start photoshop every time

Why does my ipad4 keep on locking even after only a few seconds?

Ipad 4 keeps on locking while using an app

Is it one particular app or any random app? It really helps to be specific when you post your questions. The more information that you can supply, the better your chances are of getting meaningful suggestions.
Try these basic troubleshooting steps first.
Close all apps. In order to close apps, you have to drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the app that you want to close and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
Next, reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
If those things made no difference, try this. Reset all settings. You will not lose any data, but most of the device settings will have to be entered in the settings app again. Settings>General>Reset>Reset all Settings.

HT3275 My Time Machine Error persists even after changing from ex HDD to a new 3G Time Cap and using DU: "An error occurred while copying files. The problem may be temporary. If the problem persists, use Disk Utility to repair your backup disk."

Thanks for your thoughts on this!

Thanks for this Pondini! I swapped back to my original 2TB back up from the new 3TB Time Cap with still no luck. It last succesfully backed up 16th June 2012 but has failed since then. I'm getting multiple error -36's from the same folder ...Backup/599c... but involving different files eg .../02f... and .../03e... etc. This is going to be a nightmare to exclude them all one at a time. Can I just exclude the entire ...Backup/599c... folder?
Dimitri.
