E71 usage issue (Question no. 2)

please let me know about some application which i can store my ATM pins and other secured information on the E71 mobile. It should be encrypted by a pass code. is there any application like that on Nokia or free third party software.
Again i am referring to software like CODE MEMO which are available on Sony Ericsson  

 I have not seen any app that will do this. I am sure there are some around, like a file manager or something. But, I have not downloaded or tested anything.
what i do, is that make a Word.doc on my computer and put a passord on it. Then I bluetooth this document onto my phone and so, when ever I open the document on my phone, it will ask for a password. This, in a sense, is an encrypted file.
Good luck and let me know how it goes.

  • E71 usage issue

    I brought a new E71. this is my first Nokia mobile. before this i used Sony Ericsson mobiles. 
    Please let me know how to check the battery charge level percentage on my E71. On Sony Ericsson phone, we get the percentage of batter chearge left. Do nokia phones have that options???

    reading the manual on your new computer is very important. you will find many of your questions answered there.
    you can download Netphoneinfo. it is an .sisx file and when you open this it will tell you all the information about your phone. it might be a little bit of a pain in the neck to find your answer because it wil take many keystrokes.
    another way to do it, is to go into your google maps app and hit info. the information here will let you know the level of charge of your battery in a %.

  • WiSM Design and Testing Issues / Questions / Queries etc......

    Hi all. Heres hoping you can help........
    I hope you can grasp the following description of the test network I have. I admit a diagram would have been better but it's hard to send a whiteboard over the web : )
    I am currently in the process of designing and testing out a wireless solution and am having a few issues / queries. I have a 6509 with a Wireless Services Module (WiSM) installed in slot 3, one Cisco 1240 AP on a remote LAN and a DHCP server on a remote LAN (not the same as the AP)
    I am using LAG on controller 1 with port channel 1 and native VLAN 20.
    VLAN 20 is 10.1.1.0 / 24
    The management interface has IP address of 10.1.1.10
    The AP-manager interface has IP address of 10.1.1.11
    VLAN 11 is 128.88.1.0 / 24
    The service port has IP address of 128.88.1.10
    The Cisco 1240 AP on the remote LAN is picking up a IP address via DHCP (from a remote DHCP server) OK and can route to both the aforementioned VLANs 20 and 11.
    Issue/Question 1
    I can ping the management interface locally on the 6509 and also remotely from the AP so all looks OK there however I cannot ping the AP-manager locally or remotely.
    Is this expected behaviour? I would expect that if I can ping one I should be able to ping the other or is the AP-manager interface not routed and only used in some way to create the LWAPP tunnel>
    Issue/Question 2
    As previously stated the AP is picking up and IP address but it is not being passed the Option 43 parameter from the DHCP server (not yet ruled out the DHCP server as the cause of this). Due to this I have amended the DNS entry of the management interface (10.1.1.10) to CISCO-LWAPP-CONTROLLER as a last resort. With a console on the AP I can see that the AP tries to join by the "%LWAPP-5-CHANGED: LWAPP changed state to JOIN" output but then get;
    LWAPP_CLIENT_ERROR_DEBUG: spamHandleJoinTimer: Did not recieve the Join response
    LWAPP_CLIENT_ERROR_DEBUG: No more AP manager IP addresses remain.
    Is this related to the fact that I cannot see the AP-Manager interface on the network?
    Issue/Question 3
    I have chosen to hard code the IP address of the Service port rather than leave it to DHCP. I am more comfortable having static addresses for management. However, there is no option for a default gateway for the service port.... If I try to get round this by applying a static route via the CLI on the WiSM controller to point traffic out via 128.88.1.1 on VLAN 11 this seemingly overrides all routing on the controller and causes my management interface (10.1.1.10) to fall off the network. Is the routing table applied "en masse" to the Controller? If so this surely means that to use the Service Port you have to be on the local LAN segement?!?!
    Thanks for reading my ramble and heres hoping you can shed some light on my "niggles" !

    Hi
    I am having exactly the same problem.
    Getting the same error message "No more AP manager IP addresses remain."
    I'm deploying 200 AP's that will connect to 2x WiSM (4 controllers) in 2 seperate C6k Chassis
    (Controller 1a & 1b = wism 1, 2a & 2b = wism 2)
    I have had 1 out of the first 5 AP's physically connected, come online and register with Controller 2b (btw: this was not the master controller, it should not have registed with 2b). All others fail with the same error message as above.
    I have all Management and AP-Manager interfaces in the same vlan/subnet as my AP's.
    I place a console cable onto the failed APs and see the AP cycle though the motions of trying to find the controllers, download new software code from a random controller, then it reboots, gets DHCP assigned, then get the "No more AP manager ip addresses remain" and then issues a "Reload requested by LWAPP CLIENT.
    Then the AP does the whole cycle all over again.
    Not sure why the AP's don't register with the controllers when they are all in the same vlan.
    I have a couple of extra questions.
    1. what address do you bind to the dns entry cisco-lwapp-controller.localdomain, is it the management address or AP-Manager address ?
    I have bound it to the Management address for WiSM 1a.
    Also I have 4x controllers (2x WiSMs, 2 controllers per WiSM). Do I just bind controller 1a's address or do I have to put 4x DNS entries into my DNS server for all my controllers?
    2. DHCP option 43, Do I place all 4x management ip addresses in the option or do I put in the AP-Manager Ip address?
    I followed this guide but was still a little unsure http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/hw/wireless/ps430/prod_technical_reference09186a00804fc3dc.html#wp125304
    2. This final question is more around Dynamic Interfaces for my 4 controllers once I get the AP's resisted,
    Do I have to set up a dynamic interface ip address on every controller?
    e.g.
    Ssid = data, VLAN=10, VLAN10=10.0.0.0/24, I will bind AP's 1-8 to VLan group 10.
    Do I have to setup 1 dynamic interfaces per controller in the 10.0.0.0 subnet, taking up 4 addresses ?
    And if I only have to set up 1 or 2 dynamic interface, how does this work if the controller fails?
    Cheers

  • E71 - 2 quick questions abt screensaver and voice ...

    hi all, I have had the E71 for a week now and was wondering:
    A) if I turned off the breathing light in any profile, the time and date screen saver appears (ok nothing new right). However, if I turned off the breathing light I have noticed the breathing light is still on... yes still breaths... but that doesnt matter, what matters is that the time on the screen saver DOES NOT CHANGE... i mean if its 12:00 noon at the time when the screen saver kicks in, it will stay at 12:00 noon until I either press the center button to see the time light up or unlock the phone... the time in the screensaver does NOT update as the time changes.... is this a bug or am I missing something??
    B) you know the button between the volume buttons... the one that when pressed you can voice active certain applications to come up... my question is.. can I map this button to open another application as the voice app does me no good? Is there a software to map this or is there a setting in the phone?
    thanks

    The screen saver lag seems to be a widely known bug in the 200.21.118 firmware. People have reported that among other issues here: /discussions/board/message?board.id=swupdate&thread.id=45616
    Would you like to add your bug report to that thread too?

  • E71 - Replacement issue by Nokia India (disappoint...

    Dear All,
    Kindly find below the last email i wrote to Nokia Care in regards to my issue. Today (18nov) i got a replacement. My brand new E71 is replaced with a faulty used handset. Scratches on the panel,dust inside the display,stickers on the board,ink marks on battery.
    I rushed to the nokia care who casually responded saying they will send the phone back to Delhi and Nokia will decide what to do.
    Very disappointed with this i informed them that i will be taking legal action if i dont get a proper response from nokia in a couple of days. Im resubmitting my handset tomorrow.
    This email is to let everyone know my bad experience with the Nokia. Any suggestions are most welcomed.
    Dated : (09nov2010)
    Dear Sir/Ma'am,
    Sub : E-71 replacement due to manufacture defect.
    After 20days i got my Brand New E71 back from Delhi assuring me that the software problem it had has now been rectified. The phone was returned with minor scratches on plastic panel and ink marks on battery i excepted it and used it for a day but the very next day the phone started acting even more worst, i rushed to the Nokia care and i reported the issue.the phone was showen to the manager with the problem.They agreed that there is a Major issue,due to diwali holiday i was asked to come back on Sat (06/11) I wasnt able to use the phone till then. I made clicked screenshots of my phone whenever it froze (just like last time) please refer the attachment for the screenshots.On 06th i submitted my phone again to NCC this time since they witnessed the problem and im given some hopes saying the phone will be replaced and they would get back to me within 15days.
    Im very frustrated and disappointed with all this. 14000rs brand new handset hardly used is having a manufacture defect and its so hard to get it rectified or replaced. Im very much upset with Nokia,according to me if the phone is having an issue which cannot be fixed it should be replaced without a second thought because i have paid for it and i feel the pinch.
    I want a Manager or a Supervisor to attend to this case ASAP. I have a proof and the job sheets and i have all right to go to the consumer court if im not given a replacement.
    Old Job Sheet # 320465550/101019/72

    Agreed, Nokia is a waste of time, their support is pathetic. I have an E52, would be a good phone if everything worked as advertised. Problems with the speaker and random battery trouble make the phone kinda pointless, i mailed Nokia letting them know of my problems. ALL THEY SAY IS TAKE IT TO A CARE POINT, i state that there is no nokia care point in my city, they reply: We strongly recommend you take it to a care point. They don't respond to any questions or anything else.
    Nokia is releasing phones extremely fast, and as a result it fails for a year or 2. I agree legal action should be taken, otherwise they never going to give a damn about end - users who pay for their products but get **bleep** in return.
    I will most likely not buy a nokia phone again. Seriously pathetic support. Was thinking of getting Android OS phone, Acer Liquid Metal looks cool.

  • I am having a data excess usage issue with my Jetpack although I did not use the VZW network at all.

    Background: My home does not have access to landline internet and I am relying on a Verizon Jetpack device rather than satellite cable for internet access.  Within my JetPack wireless network I have several devices connected, iPADs, PC’s, printer, etc. (up to 5 devices can be connected with my system).  Recently, I had one device within my immediate wireless network that I needed to transfer data via FTP to another local device within my immediate network.  The receiving device FTP’d data from device (198.168.1.42) to local IP (address 192.168.1.2).  To understand the data path a Trace rout for this transfer is 198.168.1.42 (source) to 198.168.1.1 (Jetpack) to 192.168.1.2 (receiver).  Note that the VZW network ((cloud)/4G network) was NOT used in this transfer nor was any VZW bandwidth used for this transfer (of course less the typical overhead status/maintenance communications that happen regardless). Use of the VZW bandwidth would be something like downloading a movie from Netflix, (transferring data from a remote site, through the VZW network, into the Jetpack and to the target device).  I also understand if ones devices have auto SW updates that would also go against the usage as well.  I get that.  My understanding of my usage billing is based data transfer across the VZW network.
    Now to the problem: To my surprise I was quite substantially charged for the “internal” direct transfer of this data although I didn’t use the VZW network at all.  This does not seem to be right, and doesn’t make much sense to me.  Usage is should be based on the VZW network not a local Wi-Fi.  In this case, Verizon actually gets free money from me without any use of or impact to the VZW network.  Basically this is a VERY expensive rental for the jetpack device, which I bought anyway.  Considering this, I am also charged each time I print locally.  Dive into this further, I am also interested in knowing what is the overhead (non-data) communications between the jetpack router and devices and how much does that add up to over time?
    Once I realized I was getting socked in bandwidth, as a temp solution I found an old Wi-Fi router, created a separate Wi-Fi network off the Jetpack, but the billing damage was already done.  Switching each device back and forth to FTP and print is a hassle and there should be no reason the existing hardware couldn’t handle this and charges aligned with VSW usage. Is purposely intended by Verizon? Is this charging correct? And can I get some help with this?
    Logically, usage should be based on VZW network usage not internal transfers.  All transfers between IP addresses 192.168 are by default internal.  Any data that needs to leave the internal network are translated in to the dynamic IP addresses established by the VZW network.  That should be very easily detected for usage. In the very least, this fact needs to be clearly identified and clarified to users of the Jetpack.  How would one use a local network and not get socked with usage charges?  Can one set up a Wi-Fi network with another router, hardwire directly from the router to the Jetpack so that only data to and from the VZW network is billed? I might be able to figure out how to have the jetpack powered on but disable the VZW connection, but I don’t want to experiment and find out that the internal transfers are being logged and the log sent after the fact anyway once I connect…. A reasonable solution should be that users be able to use the router functions of the Jetpack (since one has to buy the device anyway) and only be billed for VZW usage.
    Your help in this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

    i do not have a backup of it, so i am thinking about replacing my old hard drive from the water damaged into this one, not even sure if that would work, but it did not seem to be damaged, as i recovered all the files i wanted off of it to put onto this mbp
    the previous owner didnt have it set to boot, they had all their settings left on it and tried to edit all the names on it, had a bunch of server info and printers etc crap on it.  i do not believe he edited the terminal system though--he doesnt seem to terribly bright(if thats possible)
    tbh i hate lion compared to the old one i had, this one has so many more issues-overheating,fan noise, cd dvd noise
    if you need screenshots or data of anything else as away
    [problem is i do not want to start from scratch if there is a chance of fixing it, this one did not come with disks or anything like my first. so i dont even know if i could, and how it sets now i am basically starting from scratch, because now all my apps are reset but working, i am hoping to get my data back somehow though, i lost all of my bookmarks and editing all my apps and setting again would be a pain

  • Jabber for Windows - Outlook Meeting integration issue/questions

    Hi,
    A couple of questions if anyone else has experienced or can answer:
    1. When you turn on Jabber it appears in the trace file to create a transitionlist of meetings in your calendar for the next four hours. Eg if meeting 8-9 it will show 8:00 BUSY
            9:00 FREE
    and this works ok. This transitionlist also seems to update each time a status change occurs from what I have observed.
    The problem we seem to have is if I open Jabber at 7.45am and have a meeting 8 - 9 then it shows "In a meeting", then if I create a meeting at 9.15am for 10am-10.30am, the meeting status does not change as it seems to operate of the four hour transitionlist. I have the setting in the CUPS server for exchange sync to happen every twenty minutes, but this does not seem to update.
    I'm be focussing on the wrong area but basically not all calendar appt's update status in Jabber, especially the one's created within the four hour pperiod.
    2. To have the presence status of a person in an Outlook email address field, do you need 2010 or does it work with prior versions, we currently operate 2003. I have configured the SIP component in AD, but no status or click to call facility from Outlook.
    Thanks in advance
    Mal

    Hi Mal,
    Thanks for your post. Issue (1) sounds like a configuration issue in your setup. Please open a TAC case for further assistance.
    Regarding (2), Jabber for windows does noot support Office 2003. List of supported MS Office applications is listed in Jabber for Windows administration guide.

    Hi, everyone
         I got a new t440p 20ANA00UHH (8GB RAM, win8 64bits) about one week ago. It works really well, but its memory usage  confused me. In Task Manager, the "Performance" option shows memory is 68% (5.4G in use), but "Users" option shows memory usage 66% (1019.5M in use). Is that normal ? I just opened some websites and word files.

  • MacBook Pro 13" Screen Issue Question

    Hey guys
    I have this strange area on my MacBook Pro screen that is noticalby brighter than the rest of the screen. I've tried using the screen capture function, but the patch doesn't show up on that images generated. Here's a photo i took with my iPhone
    xtjied.jpg
    It's the area near the centre of the photo where the issue is present. It is easier to see on the photo if you move away from the screen, so you're further away, then it stands out more. However i can see it clearly when using the MBP on my lap or on a table.
    My MacBook is still in warranty, so my questions are:
    A) Should i take my machine to the Apple Store to show them the issue?
    B) What are they store likely to do, will they replace the screen, replace the machine or simply turn me away and tell me the issue doesn't warrant action?
    Even though it might seem like a small issue, once i see it whilst working my vision is drawn to it, so i lose focus on the rest of my screen.
    Thanks in advnace
    Tom

    Thanks for you response, I just want to check you're seeing the same error i am, i know the photo looks like there's a large area with a different brightness, but that's just because of the way I was positioned when taking the photo.
    Here's a better photo to illustrate the issue i'm having
    http://i.imgur.com/mDogr.jpg
    It's the small area just off centre that is a different colour to the rest of the image.
    http://i.imgur.com/UF8c9.jpg
    it kind of looks like a thumb print, but it's not
    Would you still expect them to replace/repair my machine?
    Thanks again

  • Several issues questions with 865PE neo2 FIS2R

    ok first off thanks to the people here, the sticky's are great and very informative.
    although i do find the info outdated in that they all refer to old bios's. other than that this is a fantastic forum
    ok so on with the questions.
    im using a Silicon Image IDE U133 RAID controller (PCI CARD), , the ide hard drive(s) do NOT have to be in raid its just like a Promise card but its made by someone else.
    ANYTIME i have ANY type of hard drive hooked up to that, the motherboard takes nearly 5 minutes to boot to the active hard drive. even if i select boot menu and then the RAID hard drives the SATA drives i mean.
    my active hard drives are 2 Maxtor 160gig SATA drives in RAID0 mode.
    if i have NO hard drives hooked to the controller card the system boots directly to the active boot hard drive. without dealy.
    IF i have an ide hard drive set to boot off the SIL card, it takes just as long. which seems like ages.
    anyone know of issues with this mobo and certain IDE hard drive controllers. (PCI)
    i too am having blank sreen issues with my 9700 pro video card.  but mine is nearly 2 out of 5 times i boot i have no video, and many times i am forced to reach around the pc case and unplug the power cord for a few minutes, in order to get the system to boot WITH video.
    another issue that i have and this is the WORST.
    nearly 90% of the time, the motherboard will NOT i repeat will NOT boot from a floppy or cdrom, all i get is the message on screen, if i am using a bootable floppy, like "Starting windows 98" or "Starting Windows ME"  these are DOS boot disks made with windows XP.
    i then get only a blinking curser. and nothing else.
    OR
    i get a blinking cursor and then i must wait 5-10 minutes before anything else happens. and even then usually the cdrom or floppy wont complete the booting process.
    this happens regardless of if i have anything hooked to that IDE controller card.
    i am now using the LATEST bios offered for this mobo and nothing has changed in fact ,,well according to the readme i was expecting to see some changes within the bios but i seee none. maybe i read the read me wrong. (say that 5 times fast)
    i can NOT run the ram performance mode in anything other than slow. which is making me very angry.
    i have infineon ram not sure what model but i will report back when i find out.
    but i do recall sandra reporting it as supporting 2.5cas and other setting that appear to be FAST or TURBO and yet i cant use those in the bios otherwise my system reboots in windows or i get memory speed errors during post.
    overall im VERY pleased with this mobo but am discouraged at the way its treating me.
    i have a PentIV 3.0ghz HT which is a NON production model, it is a sample model with the multiplyer unlocked.  i can go with a lower multiplyer but NOT a higher one, so i assume its unlocked but the CPU itself is limited to 15x multiplyer.
    i have tried tons of configurations and can run very stable at 3.45ghz but i MUST make the dram 333 mhz  not 400. then raise the FSB to around 225 or 230.  but i still get serious power offs when doing any heavy work on the pc.
    i have CPU voltages at 1.575 yet  sandra reports it as 1.55
    DRAM voltage at 2.7  ( i am using DDR400)
    and AGP at 1.7
    with this CPU what is a GOOD voltage to use.
    is it ok to go higher than 2.7 with DDR400 ?
    and AGP  everything i have read said that 1.8v will fry the 9700 pro.  is this true ?
    sorry im asking alot of questions but if you can help me with any of them i would REALLY appreciate it, and i would pass along any info i learn.!

    Well as Far as your PCI IDE Controller Questions are concerned, I would not know as I have never Used one , And with the Available Promise controller, you should Try using this instead......As Far as your Memory Voltage, You can Raise the Voltage above 2.7 Volts, But unless you are Really Overclocking the PBS or FSB as some call it, then 2.7 Volts is the "Norm" For this Board, But if you do NOT have High Performance RAM you should check with the Manufacturer, before you Go any Higher than 2.7 V, as far as the AGP Voltage is concerned, 1.6 Volts is the MAX that you should Have it set to with any of the new NVIDIA-FX or ATI-PRO, or XT Series Cards, Because as you know, the Cards that are 8X AGP Speed only Require .8Volts to begin with, and the ABP Voltage is Further Reduced by the Cards onboard Electronics, And if you have one of the High Performance Cards, well as you know, these get 90% of their Operating Power from the 4 Pin Molex PSU Connector. Any higher AGP Voltage then 1.6 Volts will only increase the Temps. of Both the Motherboards Chipset, and the VPU itself.................Sean REILLY875

  • Home Hub 3 Port Forwarding Issue - Question to BT

    Question to BT
    Hello i have recently joined BT Infinity and have hit the issue of the Port Forwarding not working. My HH3 is on the following version of software. Will this version automatically upgrade to the latest version of firmware and will this fix my port forwarding issue?

  • Illustrator issues questions--I need help

    Illustrator CS4, MAC OSX 10.5.8...
    After struggling off and on for a few months with Illustrator, I'd like to be able to confirm a few things, so I know I'm not insane.
    1. Canvas/Pasteboard. Is there not an easy way to change that a bit so I can see more difference between the artboard and background? I found a workaround using transparency grid color and then putting a white picture block on the artboard (on a locked layer underneath). This is at least acceptable for various things. Is there some setting I'm missing?  Mostly I'd just like to change the color of the canvas so it stands out more.(And I'd rather have my own choice than whatever the preset tends to be because these blaring white/light screens are killer on the eyes...)
    1a. How do I save a "blank" version of the canvas set up I made so my "colorized" canvas  comes up in new documents? Is there a way to set a default document?
    1b. Is there a way to make the canvas a bit smaller?
    2. Scrolling. When I select an object and want to move it up the page/artboard, AI doesn't seem to scroll to the area I'm trying to get to. Is there a setting I'm missing or accidentally checked/unchecked? I have to go to the scrollbar and click that and move the item screen-by-screen up the page (alternatively, zoom out, etc.)
    2a. I noticed earlier today when trying to sort out text issues (point text, specifically) when I rotated a box... as soon as my cursor hit the edge of the document, the window view practically scrolled out of the universe! Why would it scroll to an out-of-view place in this instance and not scroll when I'm trying to drag an item to an out-of-view place in the document?
    3. I have tons of legacy Freehand 7 files. A decade's worth (not to mention apps prior to that for another decade). Every piece of text comes in as a "text area" box (ordinarily not a problem). But not a one of them shows all the text. I understand this is an issue with legacy files of all types (saving out old FH7 files as an older version of AI yields the same results.)
    Pages are cluttered with red + everywhere. Never mind the time sink, does AI have any way to "snap to" regarding a text area box to the text? How do you get multiple text boxes/objects to line up and be the same size? I'm not seeing H x W spec boxes to enter numerics in for text area boxes (as a start). Do I need to use grids or guides for this?
    4. Whatever tool I'm using persists and doesn't change to a regular arrow when I go to click a scrollbar. Program glitch?
    5. How do I set a default font? Or a default doc to open with the desired font preset in it?
    6. When saving out a graphic to be used in another app, is there no "save selection as.."? Or do I need to open a new doc, paste and save from there for each thing? (My master documents for some frequently used items tend to have many items)
    I know these are really newbie questions, but what used to be 5 minute tweaks in the past (in Freehand) now turn into all-day ordeals trying to figure out what I consider to be just the basics. So I'm not really learning about all the features and aspects of AI at this point.
    Can anyone confirm some of the stuff above or point out what I've missed?
    Thanks

    Hello Scott:
    Thanks for reassuring me I'm only partly insane
    Thanks also for the tip on setting up a default document. I'll pursue that tomorrow when I'm a little less bleary....
    Scrolling-- I have a group (or object selected) and I'm just dragging it along, but it doesn't go farther than the edge of the doc.
    I'm a whiz with a trackball, but useless with a scroll wheel.
    Ugh on the no default font thing.
    Magnifier glass icon on the scrollbar... well, it's disorienting but I'll live.
    I see the "save as" and "save a copy"-- but I don't see a "save SELECTION"? Where is that?
    Hmmm, yeah, I have some words but I don't think "turd" was one of them  lol. Too mild for this 16-hour day.
    Admittedly, I've been more than a little shocked with AI. 

  • Two issues, Question mark and Chinese

    Issue #1 - When I go to a URL such as the Apple.com location, OT files such as the iPhone (drool) currently featured don't appear. Instead I get a semi transparent QT logo with a Question mark superimposed over it. Same goes for QT files that are emailed to me as attachements.
    Issue #2 - When I click on the QT icon on my dock I get a small window that pops up titled "Welcome to Quick Time" and if clicked linking me to a QT promo which, consistent with issue #1 will not load. Quick Time opens but other than the name of the application in bold, all other words are in what I assume is Chinese.
    These two issues seem to have cropped up simultaneously, though I can't say for sure. How do I reset the language that QT is displayed in? Particularly when I can't read any menu/toolbar items in QT?
    Thanks for your help.

    Thanks for your assitance Jon, unfortunately I'm no closer to resolving this. The QT and VLC are both in the Applications folder, should this not be the case?Was not referring to applications here but the browser plug-ins in the "~root > Library > Internet Plug-Ins" folder. If there is a browser plug-in conflict, this is where you would start to look for it.
    As for the language issue, I checked International and found Chinese to be second under English in the list. I moved Spanish up to second to see the result and QT is now in Spanish. I moved Spanish to first position and English to second and all of my Apps etc were in Spanish including QT! I put English back on top and all are just that except QT which is still in Spanish. So evidently QT has developed a distaste for English?This seems to confirm that your problem is connected to the language list -- or rather how QT has indexed and is accessing the list. It is obviously off by one index and if QT is the only application affected, would assume it most likely the application is corrupted. Unfortunately, as embedded as it is in the current system, the best solution might be to reinstall the OS. On the other hand, if you can wait for the next upgrade, I was wondering you could get temporary relief by simply placing "English US" at the top of the list and use "English" as the second entry. At least you could read the menus.
    One other question....I was planning on upgrading to Quick Time Pro, will downloading this fix my problem?No, QT Pro merely unlocks editing/saving/exporting features.
    Can I delete QT and then start over with a download of QT Pro?QT Pro is not a separate application. With previous versions of QT, I might recommend removal and re-installation of QT. But with the current "tight" integrations of QT/OS I personally would worry about creating more problems than I would solve.

  • Table of Contents Issue/Question

    Hi everyone, I hope I can put my question accurately into words. 
    I'm working on a 450 page product catalog in Indesign CS5 for the mac.  The catalog has 7 main sections, in which there are numerous smaller sections. I need to create a table of contents for these smaller sections, however, my issue is this;  my table of contents is based on the product names which I've applied a paragraph style to, but, also included on the same line that the product name is, are several small icons.  I used the library function to put these icons into place.  I put my curser where I wanted the icons to be, went to the library, right clicked on the icon I wanted, and selected place item.  I found this to be the easiest way since there were approximately 1500 products in the catalog.  So, my issue is, now that I'm creating a mini-table of contents for these numerous sections, the icons are included in my table of contents, which I don't want.  I can manually go in and delete each icon, but I'm thinking there has to be a faster way.  I thought of possibly a grep style but can't figure out how to make that work.
    Any help would be appreciated!  It's going to take a while to delete each one of those.  I hope I've described this accurately; please feel free to ask any questions if it's not clear.
    Thanks so much!
    Annette

    Oh my gosh, that did it!  Thank you sooooo much! 
    I couldn't figure out how to choose just those characters because I hadn't designated them as anchored objects; that was throwing me, but I guess Indesign saw them as such.
    Thanks again, you've saved me hours of work!
    Sincerely,
    Annette

  • IPhone 5 Battery & Data usage issues

    Here's my journey.
    I had the iPhone 5 from the day it was realeased. Was with Vodafone Australia. Phone was awesome. Coverage was an issue, so decided to swap to Telstra recently. Got new iPhone 5 with the change over.
    From the beginning, the new Iphone on Telstra, the battery was draining completely in less than 3 hours. Looked at the support communities and spoke to Apple. I made the mistake of setting the phone up from a "BackUp". They suggested setting it up as a "new phone" in iTunes.
    Did that - phone had been awesome until 4 days ago when I decided to "Update All" of the pending App updates. After all was downloaded the phone returned to its draining self, also becomign VERY VERY HOT when charging. Warmer than normal. Also got a SMS from Telstra to say I have used 82% of my download entitlement. With 22 days remaining!!!! Something wasnt right, not only was it using the battery life, cellular data usage was being drained also.
    Spoke to Apple, they told me I would need to do a process of elimination to find the "corrupt" app that was draining the Battery & Data.
    I deleted every single App I had on the phone, yet it made no difference. I started to monitor the cellular data recieved on the phone. With no apps and nothing running, how is there data and battery being drained.
    Decided yesterday to"RESTORE" iPhone once again. Set up as a new phone. I had loaded my email settings, but nothing else. I hadnt even provided my Apple ID infomation so the App Store wasnt logged in. Phone was still not right. Played with some settings, decided to turn my "Exchange" email from "PUSH" to "Manually Fetch".  After this, the phone was back to normal. No cellular data being downloaded and battery OK. Turned Exchanged back to PUSH, then the battery decides to trickle away again.
    After all this ********, I have narrowed it down to the way my exhcnage server checks for new messages. I have ALWAYS had my Exchange server PUSH emails to me. Why with this phone, on 6.1 should I have to have it to Manually check for emails.
    I get the feeling from conversations with other people, there seems to be alot of unknown data usage which Apple need to make a priority in preventing. This is costing consumers time and money.
    Curious if anyone else has had same issue?

    The issue is pretty broad.   I see posts all over the internet on iphone 5.  I use the phone on 2 continents and both places have the issue.  Therefore, it is not a network issue, it's an Apple issue.  I use pccw in Hong Kong and AT&T in the US.  I have isolated the issue to the phone sending data, massive amounts of data, all on it's own.  At first I tried turning everything off like icloud, itunes, passbook, all downloads, etc.  Eventually, I shut everything off other than cellular data.  The phone will be fine for some amount of time then it randomly begins sending data.  It can send 100mb an hour, with nothing on at all.  You can view your send data under settings> general> usage> Cellular usage.  I went as far as taking screen shots every minute and watched it sending massive amounts of data.  Here they are, just a sample.  Apple's suggestion on chat is to turn data off or put it on airplane mode....   quite frustrating since those are the two reasons you buy a smart phone to begin with...  I'm hoping there is a solution other than not to use the phone.
