Approximately 6% of all requests for help on this forum are ever "solved."

Approximately 6% of all requests for help on this forum are ever "solved." And approximately 34% of all requests for help on this forum are never responded to. Even with all the caveats, these numbers are embarrassing. Good luck everyone!

More facts and stats from the horse's mouth - http://www.mozilla.org/foundation/annualreport/2009/sustainability.html
"Total assets as of December 31, 2009 were $143 million compared with $116 million at the end of 2008, an increase of 23 percent. Unrestricted net assets at the end of 2009 were $120 million compared with $94 million in 2008, a 28 percent increase."
"Mozilla consolidated expenses for 2009 were $61 million, up approximately 26 percent from 2008 expenses of $49 million. Mozilla operating expenses in 2009 continued to remain highly focused on people and infrastructure."
"At the end of 2009, Mozilla was funding approximately 250 people working around the world."
Yes, Mozilla is indeed doing very well but they're a bit worried about the IRS audit that is currently going on.
Now, if we take the figure from the 2008 cnet article that 80% of expenses are spent on Mozilla employees as a relatively stable benchmark for 2009, we see that employee salaries averaged out to around $200,000 dollars annually for each employee, which obviously isn't what each employee is actually getting paid, but what it does mean is that given typical corporate scaling of salaries, some folks in this non-profit are making lots and lots of money.
The individuals who should be the most upset about Mozilla's unwillingness to invest even a fraction of its profits into building a real and responsive user support system are the collective-community-driven-volunteers who commit their free time so Mozilla can continue to cash in big time at their expense. A brilliant model!
Again, Firefox users appreciate the work that you and the other unpaid/unacknowledged volunteers do here.... Mozilla appreciates it more.

iOS 7 Basically it looks like Apple has introduced globally a bug in their notification center software with no known solution, every app using notification center throws a pop up on startup. All I find on this forum are overkill solutions like reinstalling/rolling back the os, which no real user should to be forced to do for a minor bug of this nature.

It throws a popup only the first time you launch the app, to confirm whether you wish to have notifications enabled for that specific app.

Windows Live Mail ? Links to this forum not working correctly.

I got a new computer running Windows 7 and have been using Windows Live Mail.
This is where I get my e-mails for updates to messages on this forum.
The link for the message thread has a link that includes the # sign with the correct message to go to on the page.
Now with Windows Live when I click the link it leaves the number after the # sign and just goes to the top of the thread instead to the exact comment.
I can copy and paste the link into a browser and it works fine but if I just click it it does not work like it used to with Outlook Express.
Any ideas if this might be fixable.
Thanks: GLenn

I still have outlook express running on my OLD SLOW windows XP
My new Windows 7 only has Windows Live Mail so I have to use it unless I get another program.
I just thought that someone here might have figured it out.
I dont know what the extra part after the # sign is called so i havent been luck searching google for an answer.
Here is the link to your message:
http://forums.adobe.com/message/2965072#2965072
but when I click it it just puts this link in the browser:
http://forums.adobe.com/message/2965072
it does work but just takes me to the top of the thread.
Im not sure why it doesnt use the part with the # and number that follows it.
It does see it and if hover over it it sees the whole link.
Just something new to figure out.
I will try a Windows Live Forum too but if anyone knows any hints that would be great too.
Thanks: GLenn

Why did they change this forum area

From what I see here and from what I read in the rumors columns, Apple is making wholesale changes in everything. The old forum was very easy for me to use and I could find what I needed and ask questions and get answers. Things here are far less intuitive.
Is there any way we can get them to go back to the old ways? I really know the answer before I ask it. From what I've seen Steve Jobs has a vision of what things should be. Sometimes he is right and at other times he is not. But right or wrong, he is the autocrat and the customers are made to like it. Or what? I really cannot imagine going back to the Windows world and I don't find the Linux world with a many ready made profession applications as I find in Apple or even Windows. Gimp is a great product. But it still doesn't touch Photoshop (even Elements) or Aperture or Lightroom. I don't see those apps on Linux.
I know this sounds like heresy, but if you had heard about some of the things I've heard about Lion, many of you would (will) shudder. It is like they are taking my 24" iMac with 8 GB of RAM and TBs of hard drive and making it into a large model iPad. I love the iPad. But it doesn't do the jobs I need to do nor for the jobs it does, does it do as well. Someday, I see the world of iPad and the full size Mac merging. But they aren't there yet, but they are treating it as if they had. We ARE NOT in a POST PC (a Mac is also a Personal Computer just not a Windoz computer) world. We are moving there.

I've compared the iPad 2 to the Kindle and the Nook. I have two daughters and each have one of them. They are very impressive and the eInk is quite impressive. If I needed to read in natural light more, I would be dependant on eInk. But that is not the case. I use a lot of apps, and btw, none of the apps I've installed are games - I don't have the time or energy for gaming. I work a very complicated schedule and I found an iPhone / iPad add that keeps track of it very well so I can tell what days I work two months from now when setting up the next doctor's appointment. My Banks and my credit card companies have very nice applications for managing these as well as Pay Pal. Applications that let me play my favorite radio stations on my iPad or iPhone. Accordance bible program which is by far the best Bible study program and research tool out there works very well on the iPad and with some crowding on the iPhone. the reduced capability iWorks (Numbers and Pages) that let me do certain work on my iPad. Has been very valuable. Applications which help me find the next bus in a city and find its expected arrival time at a particular stop. These are only a quick list of the things I like the most that I have here. Android is a challenge but for now, Android suffers from versions. Many people cannot load the latest version of Android because of details of the hardware platform they have. I remember those days with Windows on non-IBM hardware very painfully. Linus also suffers that problem too because some of the big PC makers (HP in particular) sell hardware that took so many shortcuts that drivers for Linux are not available. Android is something to watch and some people are quite happy with it. The disadvantage it has is that without the control Apple exerts on what can be loaded on non-jail broken iOS devices, malware can creep in even more easily. But Android itself isn't currently offering EInk as far as I know.
I expect the EInk devices will move in time into the tablet market. It is an obvious move. But the investment to do that and the low success rate from a number of courageous companies is daunting. The only explanation I have for Apple's dominance is that they were the fastest to the market and their products do seem to work as advertised with a few well advertised missteps.

How to effectively ask a question on this forum

Ok, so this'll take a little explaining. I was kinda bored over my lunch break, so i decided I'd write a general reference for how to post well on this forum. I realize that many people aren't gonna read this the first time they post, but i thought it would be a good thing to reference when replying to people who post a poor question.
_10 Ways to Post a Good Question on this Forum_
_1) Write a descriptive subject line_
This is the first thing that people see, and it influences how they read a question. Subjects like "Java error" tell people nothing about your problem. Subjects like "How to implement a SAX parser for use in multiple classes" are infinitely more useful.
_2) Don't use phrases such as URGENT or HELP ME!!! or IT'S DUE IN AN HOUR!!!!_
The people on this forum don't have the same priorities as you, and therefore don't care if your problem is urgent. In fact, they find it rude to assert that your problem should be solved before somebody else's just because you procrastinated. They also don't pleas for help too fondly. Typically posters who write this sort of phrase in their post has given up and become helpless, making it very difficult to guide them to the answer. Also, keep the caps lock off. THERE IS NOTHING MORE ANNOYING THAN ALL-CAPS POSTS. IT SEEMS LIKE YOU ARE YELLING, and people will make you aware of how it annoys them.
_3) Dont post your homework assignments asking for "teh codez"_
You will get flamed like none other for this sort of question. You may get codes, but when you submit them to your instructor, you may get suspended or expelled (depending on your school's cheating policy). The people on this forum are more advanced than you in Java, and can make it painfully obvious to your instructor that you cheated.
_4) Write in normal English_
Think of this forum as your supervisor or instructor, you want to sound professional and convey your question effectively. SMS speak or any other sort of abbreviation of the English language becomes difficult to read, and many people on this forum won't even try. This forum is filled with professionals in the Java world, and they are accustomed to reading true English (full sentences).
_5) Don't be helpless_
This forum is here mainly to help with specific problems, not to teach you Java. If you don't know where to start, a person is most likely going to tell you to write the solution out on paper first, breaking it down into small steps that can be accomplished by the computer.
_6) Do your research_
Many of the questions posted can be solved with a quick Google search. You should check a few places before you even post a question. They include: this forum (do a forum search), Google (do a Google search), the API's (http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/api/), and the Java Tutorials(http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/)
_7) Post code and errors with your question_
The answer to your problem is in the error messages and the code. Instead of asking a general question about for loops, post the code that you have written and the error info that you get. When asking a question it is IMPERATIVE that you have tried to do it your own way, because the people on the forum mostly won't do it for you, they'll only point out where you have done it wrong and try to help you fix it. Don't paraphrase your error messages, because there are subtleties in the actual messages that you may unknowingly edit out.
_8) Don't Multi-post_
It is rude to post the same question multiple times or in multiple places in the this forum. This is for the same reason as #2, it makes it seem that you think your problem is more urgent or important than others' problems.
_9) Don't resurrect dead threads_
If a thread is 3 years old, nobody is going to remember it, so make a new thread to ask your question. If you have a question about something in the old thread, reference it through a hyperlink.
_10) Take it easy_
As long as the people in the forum see that you're legitimately trying to help yourself, they'll help you as much as they see fit. The biggest problem that newbies have is they rely on the forum to spoonfeed them the info, and it's not going to happen. They'll either get flamed or ignored. The people on the forum aren't trying to find "fresh meat to flame", they legitimately want to help you, and they'll typically give you fair warning if you're doing something annoying or unorthodox.

There does seem to be a way to sticky posts, but I think only mods and admins have the power to do it. There's one over on the Generics forum : http://forum.java.sun.com/forum.jspa?forumID=316
I've been trying to add a pseudo-signature to my posts as far as possible, with a link to a page which pretty much covers this stuff, only it's on JavaRanch:
People on the forum help others voluntarily, it's not their job.
Help them help you.
Learn how to ask questions first: http://faq.javaranch.com/java/HowToAskQuestionsOnJavaRanch
But I've had a couple of occasions where the OPs thought it was directed at them and they got a tad upset :)
And without hyperlinks, I'm not quite sure how many people actually take the pains to go to that page.
Ah well, no one can say I didn't try.

Searches in this forum.

Searches in this forum are never fruitful for me even when I know a topic exists because it's one that I posted. I can enter the entire subject line of my post in the search filed and turn up lots of unrelated posts but the one I was looking for is no where to be found even when it clearly should be right at the top of the list assuming the list is sorted by relevancy and I typed the exact subject line in to the search field. Not a very intuitive style of searching when that can happen. I hope this eventually gets fixed someday.

Hi Matthew!
I found a Topic you started, using the Search Terms "new voices in leopard", and searching your alias for the text field Restrict by Username:.
View the Search Results.
Alternately, using the Search TermS new+voices++in+leopard, with no Username, produces the Same Results.
But I agree with you, that the Search function is very inadequate.

Upon opening Mail this morning to check when I'd sent a draft I wrote yesterday, I noticed all my sent messages are missing.

Upon opening Mail this morning to check when I'd sent a draft I wrote yesterday, I noticed all my sent messages are missing. I had mail dating back ten years in there. When I go to Time Machine to restore, only today's Sent Mailbox is available. Time Machine has been backing up seamlessly for months, so there should not be a problem finding a backup. What's going on and how do I restore the Sent Mailbox?
I am using 10.7.4 on a MacBook Pro
Laura

Unless your TM drive is messed up, the backups should be there. So relax a bit.
The mail is stored in your Home Library folder, not the hard drive Library folder. The Home Library folder is hidden in Lion. To get to it, select Go in the Finder and hold the option key down. Select Library in the submenu. A Finder window will open up in your Home Library.
From there, you will navigate to the Mail folder, then V2 folder. All main mailboxes for each account will be in their account folder. There is another folder called Mailboxes which will store all local folders.
If you select the V2 folder in the Finder window, then enter TM, you should be able to go back into time.
Before doing anything else, first open Disk Utility and verify that your hard drive is OK.
If it is, go into the hard drive and navigate to the Home Library/Mail/V2 folder. Open each mail account and click on the mailbox your messages were in, like the inbox. See if the messages folder contains messages.
I just want you to see if the mailboxes are in the account folders and that they contain data. If so, we will continue from there. There's no use in trying to restore if there are problems just yet. Let's verify this first, then we will proceed.

What are rules of etiquette for this forum?

I have posted a few basic questions in recent times about java programming issues. Right now I am using JBuilder2005. I am relatively new to the Java progarmming community, and I don't know if JB2005 is considered evil over say, WebSphere, Eclipse, etc. But responses I have received for my basic questions (which I ended up finding my own answers to) have been less than friendly.
Case:

Re: assing which servlet is the startup page? Author: IanSchneider Mar 11, 2005 3:54 PM (reply 1 of 1)
You gots to be crazy if you think I'm helping you with your assing. Whats JB2005 anyway? Whatever it is, it sounds like its an impediment to you knowing whats going on. Try looking in your web.xml and actually understanding how servlets work.
<<
I have received responses similar to this for other posts where people are conscientiously steering me in the wrong direction. Well, I am not posting to ruffle any feathers, but since I have not seen any specific rules on what to post/not post other than no disruptive stuff, my question is if this forum is like a Pay forum and/or an anti Borland forum (vs a forum for exchanging information on Java programming).
While I'm at it I am trying to use a DataExpress control from JB2005 to connect to an Access Database (for practice - we have Oracle but I am practicing on Access). I select the driver
sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver
then it asks for the URL, it gives me this option in the ...:
jdbc:odbc:MS Access Database
so where do I add the location of the mdb file? I can't get the control to connect. I can connect to Access if I just use code and read/insert rows of data, but I want to use a DataExpress TableDataSet control so I can load it up with rows of data from a database file in a client application. I can load up an html table of data in a servlet for display . But how can I display data the same way in a client app?
Is this forum even the correct forum for me to ask this question - or should I look for a Borland forum?
Thanks.

Hi All,
I posted a thread a couple of days ago without response (subject: ORA-20001: get_dbms_sql_cursor error ORA-01747: invalid user.table.column). If no help is forthcoming through this forum, what are other avenues I can pursue to get assistance?
Thanks,

Good afternoon Kristina,
I don't think you are getting no responses because people are just ignoring you. For APEX issues, this is the place for answers. I believe that the issue might be that everyone that looks at your question may think that it is more of a SQL or PL/SQL question - when infact, it is an upgrade question.
I do not have any APEX 4.1 experience so I can only speak to generalities. However, I would suggest that you might want to make sure that all of the access rights are the same for your 3.1 application and your 4.1 application.
Did you convert into a new database? or in place? If a new database, you may need to make sure that APEX_PUBLIC_USER (or whatever user you have designated) has access to all of the tables/views and the like that you are using... and has proper execution rights on stored packages, functions and procedures.
I realize that this should seem a very simplistic answer, but again, having no experience with APEX 4.1, it is all that I can offer.
I hope this helps. If not, I hope that my response can at least prompt those that might know to go back and review your [url https://forums.oracle.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=2333915&tstart=60]original post.
Good luck,
Don.

          I have been encountering the same problem for two weeks, but I couldn't solve it yet since I am using WebLogic not Websphere, and I'm not using SAPJ2EE server.

          The configurations are right on LD_LIBRARY_PATH. I mean, the file "librfccm.so" and "libsapjcorfc.so" are being refered. Also the sapjco.jar is set to CLASSPATH.
          I am using JCO in Linux and deploying it in WebLogic. I already put the
          APP_CLASSPATH=$APP_HOME/sapjco.jar. I guarantee you that the configurations on path and classpath are correct.
          Is there anything to do with "application.xml" of the j2ee? Do I need to add some tag there?
          I tried also putting the "sapjco.jar" in WEB-INF\lib but it doesn't wiork.

Why is it Adobe has over 6000 posts in this forum that they are completey ignoring.

Why is it that Adobe has over 6000 posts on this web site and obviously Adobe(who has taken my computer hostage}, has done nothing to rectify this situation. They have placed a botched up piece of software out for distribution and have done absolutely nothing for the consumer who unknowingly tried to use it. I for one would like to see some sort of response from Adobe. Are they working on this? Are they going to send us something so the can get 9.3 uninstalled? What?... And by the way, I think you have some program developers that should be looking for another field of work... just a thought..... this was neither developed properly nor was it tested thoroughly. It should never have been sent out for use. And now no doubt there are hundreds of thousands of consumers sitting at home not knowing what to do. Many probably going out and buying new computers becasue they don't realize it is a program issue. Shame, shame, Adboe.... Now you are right up there with WOW

Ok.
A. This is not an avenue to contact Adobe. It's a user to user forum. Just people helping other people.
B. Many post get ignored for many reasons (mostly due to lack of information from the original poster). I'm pretty sure there aren't 6000 post from people with the exact same issue as you.
C. The odds of hundreds of thousands of people having a certain issue is a little blown out of proportion don't ya think? I mean, out of 6 sytems, I'm having problems with zero of them. I'm sure there are others like me.
So, maybe we can all calm down here, explain the problem you are having (be sure to include all details even if you think it doesn't matter) and maybe one of us "users" can give you a hand?

Hi there how are you guys out there of this forum? I got a question for y'a

Hi there how are you guys out there of this forum? I got a question for y’all
I wanted to know how I could record different folders using iTunes
Cause when recorded 2000 thongs on the DVD
There were 2000 songs to go through
So I really wanted to have had folders and then the music recorded inside them
So I could get right to where I wanted real quickly
Could anyone please teach me how to do that real quickly?
Can we do it with iTunes?
I know we can do it with Nero.

1) Go to file, select new playlist. Creat the playlaist.
2) Download your music into iTunes.
NOTE: CHECK 'Recently Added' before you download your music.
If the select boxes has a check in them, turn it off by
holding down the 'ctrl' key and selecting one of the
checked boxes. This shold turn off all the checks.
It would be better to clear 'Resently Add' of all
previous downloads, but I don't know how to do that
yet.
3) under 'PLAYLIST' on the right, select 'Recently Add'.
all of your song should show there with a check in the selection
box.
4)Hold the shift key and select the frist (selete records name),
then the last recorded tune. All of the recordings shouls light
up blue.
5) While holding the 'shift' key, drag one of the records to your new
playlist. All of the blue highlighted song will transfer to the new
playlist.

Are the [expletive deleted] at Adobe doing anything to improve this forum?

We were informed some time back by an Adobe representative that frequents this forum that he would look into why we keep having to login each time we revist the forum.
Although we have this 'tick to remember your details' box on the login page it never works. Now I am finding when I login I then get logged out for no reason but still says I'm logged in.
I keep getting an 'internal server error' jump up on my screen.

JIve absolutely DOES NOT have access you your AdobeID account. That's why the SSI process is complicated - you sign in on the secure adobe.com server, then your verified session is passed over to Jive's network using a chain of session cookies. All Jive can see is your userID, name and email address (the stuff shown in your forums profile) - not your password, bank info, etc.

These forums are managed by Jive and so it must be a security nightmare for them to have access to people's personal data including credit cards and bank info!!!
Adobe made a policy decision that all services will be accessed via AdobeIDs - that goes for websites, SaaS subscriptions and product activations. It's done for perfectly valid reasons - for example if a customer asks a question in the forum about a purchase, Customer Care can immediately pull up the order history as they can search for the forum user's email address (which is unique to an AdobeID, so the forum user must be the same person). Since we switched to AdobeID logins, hundreds of people have been helped this way with activations, lost serials, etc. so it's not going to change back.
