First opinion :questions ans suggestions.

Hi All !
I did install your browser on XP pro as administarator. I did allow to my firewall all protocol's that it need to browse. But i can't use it on limited user. This limited account is my default system account on XP. An administrator i am using for configuration, installation and unistallation only.The big problem that safary can't browse to any page on limited user.
So, why i need browser that can't reach any web-site ? Very secure- yes, useful - no
More about security: i didn't find any extention/plagin for full contol on scripts on each page(like NoScript in firefox), cookies( coockiesafe in firefox), refferer (refcontrol in firefox)on each site ,SecureLogin (in firefox)
Other things that i didn't find :
online translator for different languages,spell check for other languages, advertisement blocking on sites and google, bookmarks recorder.
Suggestions: if you want really that safary will be the best browser in the world :
1.enable running on limited user
2.full support for firefox extensions( at least those, that i did mention )

Put Safari v. 3.1 on a PC. Never used a Mac so I know nothing about its OS or appearance. Been looking over these posts and cannot figure out if I am lacking features that did not install or if features are not available in Safari.
One example (there are many), the address bar has no pull down arrow to access already entered URLs. Is this normal?
One other annoyance, with FF or IE, once I've visited a URL that requires an ID/Pass (or other data box entry), when I return, typing in the first character calls up the ID and loads the Pass, or performs similarly with any data entry. Not Safari: always got to retype the entire string. This normal?
I guess my problem is not knowing if Apple's description of Safari's features on v. 3.1 are identical in the Mac as well as the PC.
By the way, I am trying Safari because FF (which I have been using for at least three years) is slowing to a crawl - even in Safe Mode with all extensions disabled. Safari far exceeds FF speed but, then too, Safari seems to be a skeleton of a browser.
Thanks, Monk

Issue with First Quiz Question

When I try to go back BEFORE answering the first quiz
question, when I move forward again to the first question, it tells
me that "You did not answer the question completely"and it will not
allow me to answer this question or any additional questions. (I
have set the option to use the BACK button in a quiz.) If I answer
the FIRST question, it allows me to go backwards on any additional
questions. Why can't I move backwards before I answer the first
question? Is there something I am missing?

As Mzedella said, my understanding is that backing out of the
quiz (going backwards past the first question) costs the user an
attempt, so if you've only allowed one attempt, the questions are
considered not answered....
We have a mix of content and questions (not a single block of
quiz questions), and wanted to allow backward movement. We solved
this problem by making the first slide a question. That way, the
user is always in the quiz and they can move backward as much as
they like.
If you can't think of a good question for the first slide
(often a question about their background knowledge is good), you
can always make it 'are you ready to begin?'. A little clumsy, but
you get the functionality you want.
We further required all questions to be answered, so users
can't skip ahead past unanswered questions. By removing the nav
bar, but including a menu (via skin), users can easily review the
material, but are still required to at least click through all the
slides. This works for our application, but you many want something
different.

Opinion question

So, I "took the plunge", and decided to buy my first mac. I decided on a Mac Book Pro. So I go to the apple store, and pick out the 15" MBP with the glossy screen. I take it to check out and it all looks good. They apply my $200 student discount, but they can't do the expedited checkout, because I have a miniature credit card. So they put me in the big line.
Finally, when it's my turn to check out, they guy is asking me some questions (he was ecstatic that I was a grad student in CS that decided to switch to Mac). Anyway, he stops checking me out and tells me to hold on a sec and returns from the back of the store with another box. It's a refresh. Exactly the same specs, except with the matte screen. So at first I'm ambivalent, because I've had many laptop issues with dead pixels before, and "refresh" scares me. After he re-re-re assures me that it's treated as a brand new product, and all return / warranty stuff applies, I decide to go for it. So instead of $2500, I pay $2000, $200 student discount, $300 refresh.
The laptop is in perfect condition, no dead pixels, no dents , no scratches. The question of opinion I have for you guys is the following. Do you think it's worth it to take the screen I like less to save the $300. I do like the glossy better, I think it's brighter and richer. On the other hand, it's not like I love glossy and hate matte. The matte screen is nice, and I don't at all dislike it. I know this is a very subjective question, but what do you guys think. Should I save my $$ and stick with the screen I like slightly less, or should I take it back and tell them that after thinking it over I want to pay the extra $ and go for the glossy. I have until Jan 7 to decide.
Thanks for your input,
Rob

I just bought a MBP last weekend. I looked at glossy, compared it to the matte, and bought the matte--and that is after reading many posts about the "grainy" effect of the matte screens. Here's what I think about that. Its all blown out of proportion. The MBP line has much brighter screens than any previous Mac laptops. So, you are going to see the matte overlay more than if it was dimmed a little bit. Dim the screen by maybe 20% and that "grainy" effect disappears. I also think the whole "grainy" thing is so "diffuse" an issue, no one really knows if there screen is a problem. A dead pixel is a dead pixel. Nothing subjective there. Banding at the bottom of the screen is banding. Not much subjectivity there (mine has it, but barely, and I don't really care). But "graininess?" I wonder how many people heard that, then looked at their mattes screen, and said to themselves, you know, now that you mention it.... I did this same thing to myself. Then I hooked up my MBP to my beautiful external 22" matte finish monitor, loaded two Pics in PS CS3, slid both around, and notices almost no difference--especially when I turned down the brightness on the MBP screen.
Now, having said all that, one of the main things I do on my Mac is digital photo editing. I would say I have a pretty picky bias against a bad screen (and have had a few--not on the MBP). This screen is so much better than the screens on my two previous iBooks, and on my son's PB 12" it isn't even funny, and that is despite having noticed that, if I wanted to think it was grainy, I could say it was. I think any matte finish LCD screen, with brightness turned way up, will end up looking grainy.
This reminds me of the argument that surfaces in D-SLRs, where camera companies have to balance good sharpening against noise. More sharp equals more noise. Less noise means softer shots. Apple decides to issue a brighter (and probably more expensive) monitor so its easier to see during the day, especially with a glossy screen competing with glare, the tradeoff being graininess at such bright levels. People notice the screens are much much brighter, but also more grainy. They take their MBPs to the genius bar, and so on. I for one am glad Apple gave me the choice: bright screen for office work during the day (who cares about graininess--I can see the screen more easily for Word, email, Safari), dimmer screen in my home office during the day and night (when detail matters, and I want the screen dimmer for more accurate color rendition, and easier to deal with when using Logic). Thanks Apple. Its about balance and choice.

Oracle Interview Question&Ans

I want to download Oeacle interview Ques.&Ans.
Plz any body can tell me the link of most frequently asked Oracle 9i,10g interview Que&Ans.
Thanks&Regards:
M K SINGH

MK singh,
As mentioned,Google search with the same search term would give tons of the results. Remember , cramming some questions and going for interview will be a "really bad" idea. If you can answer ,
1) How a select works,
2) How a DML with committ rollback works
3) How Instance recovery works
Than most probably you may clear the first round. Rest would depend on the position you are applying for. So better is, prepare yourself for the big picture. Don't worry about the questions most asked. Those who cram most asked questions, they are crushed in first few minutes within those questions only.

Questions and Suggestions

Scott:
My apologies for using a wrong thread to post new items. I hope you can now spare some time to look into these and provide insight.
Regards!
Erick
Greetings colleagues!
My message is not an answer to the above-referenced topic/subject. I want to bring in some more substance and see how our friends at Oracle Support--or other colleagues, can address them.
But first let me thank Oracle support for the answer to my recent posting! Regrettably, that didn't much address my question fully. Maybe, I wasn't just more clear.
I agree--please bear with me-with you that there might be limitations and there. Not only on this item, but to many other. These are all inherent to a new technology. I will try T list some, and suggest improvement whenever possible. Let's call these "improvement opportunities" instead of limitations/bugs.
(1). My previous question. We are dealing with a relational database, and our requirements, I dare suspect, might be more than O HTML DB CAN, actually deliver? Suppose, again, I have 4 tables. PRODUCTS, VENDORS, PRESENTATIONS, PRESENTERS. Why these last 2 tables? Before any technology enters our corporate IS environment, it must be approved. It goes through a strict technology acquisition process. Vendors that are selected, say for the bid, must do presentations. At the end, the Technology Committee will make a decision (after doing a Technical Proof of Concept (TPOC).
Now, we want to be able to list presenters and presentations for each product (whenever available). There are more than 1 presentation for a given product and there also situations where you have more than 1 presenters for a presentation.
Can you generate this using a tabular form? I double. I tried, using the Wizard. You can only select 1 table when building this tabular form. However, you can get the SQL script using the SQL Command processor.
(2). The dilemma: We want reports for presenters and presentations o be displayed on separate pages. Here is where it gets more tricky, maybe because I just stated with O HTML DB 2 months ago.
My SUGGESTION to Oracle Developers: Can you make it possible to decide, when creating a region, to display it on a different page other than the one on which you generate the, say the report script? I think that depending on redirection creates confusion, and makes the tool less user-friendly. When you allow a developer to decide, at time of region creation to display the report on this page, or another page, you really create user-friendliness and increase application maintainability.
(3). Buttons: Why has Oracle re-invented the wheel here? Is it possible, in the next release, to make it possible to have graphic insertion icons within a region (just like most tools we are used to do? This would save us a significant amount of time. Having to upload graphics 1 at a time, then include these in the app is time consuming (especially if one has many graphics).
(4). How Tos: I do sincerely commend you guys on a fantastic job. However, we all (developers and Oracle Support team/Developers) must admit that the tool is still immature and there are many improvement opportunities. May I ask why is it that I crete a region now, code an SQL script. Everything works now. I backup the application. The next day, however, when I access the same app, what worked yesterday fails to work now! This has happened many times and it is pretty frustrating.
The best books are those that provide good examples, but also show the result of each code (for instance). Many people learn faster when they look at a code, then see the result. Reading text like a history book, in the development context is taste-assassination.
Do other experience this instability? If so, could you please share with me what you do? I suspect an application level "bug.
Again, I know the product is new and really commend Oracle's team for a fantastic job.
Tanks so very much in anticipation!

1. Can someone make a resume application. In this day of unemployment you may never know who you bump into who is looking for a job or needs a job to be filled. This way you at least have your resume that they can take a quick look at and will remember you when you do give them a personal copy.
You could just email yourself a PDF of the resume or use an app like AirSharing to store the resume on your phone.
2. Can Apple make it so that when you sync your iPhone to iTunes you have the pages, as they are on your iPhone, on your home screen. That way it is MUCH easier to arrange your applications and when you sync again they will be arranged as you did on your computer.
You're not speaking to Apple here. Send feedback - http://apple.com/feedback
3. I am sure everyone has asked this question before but will SMS ever be able to a) recieve picture messages and b) type in landscape?
You can already receive picture messages on the phone. All the sender needs to do is put your email address in the TO field of their MMS client.
As far as landscape, send feedback through my previous link.
4. Eventaully will we be able to print emails, SMS messages, etc from iPhone? We have a wireless printer so all you have to do is load it on your iPhone.
Thanks to all who respond.

Adding first server questions

We are moving and are going to be adding a server (Quad 2.5 G5 w/ 2x500 HDs). We are currently have the internet connection coming in (static IP) to an AEBS running two printers and an AEX on the same network running the other. All the machines use the wireless network for internet access and printing. Email is via a hosted Exchange solution and another company hosts our web site. We have one spare machine that does limited file server work, but most folks have stuff on their hard drives.
I have read the manuals on OS X server and a couple of after market books and, since much of it is somewhat familiar, I am relatively confident about many of the software setup issues. However, I have gotten some conflicting advice about the physical configuration and hoped you guys could help.
We want to be able to use the server as a file server, with better access control than the sharing preference, have remote users connect with a VPN, use the wireless network for internet access and printing. We might want to host web sites via an intranet or be able to access them from outside, but don't want them to be associated with the domain name that is the real web site.
My first question is about the interface between the airport network and the server. I was originally told that the cable to the internet should go into one of the servers ports and the other should connect to an AEBS. I should set up the server to act as a firewall and serve up DCHP addresses. However, some of what I have read says that this is a bad idea--that the AEBS or something else should be the first in line and that the server should be connected to the LAN port of the AEBS. Which is best?
Other questions:
Should I use the server print services or just the bonjour through airport?
I don't need to set up the mail services, correct?
Anything else I should consider?
Thanks

Since no one else has chimed in yet I'll pipe up and suggest you consider another configuration: connect your internet modem to a standalone firewall/router. (You'll either need one with a built in switch, or you'll need to connect a standalone switch to it.) Then connect both your server and Airport to the switch. The Airport will be set to bridge your wireless network to the wired network.
This way you focus your server resources on real server stuff, while the router takes care of grunt work like NAT and DHCP. You also gain some isolation for your server compared to having it function as your firewall and gateway.
Just an alternative to think about.

Why is it when I type the first few letters it suggest (in voice) the word? Where do I go to stop it on the new 7?

Why is it that when I go to send a message and type the first two letters the phone speaks a suggested word to use? Where do I go to change this?

Review Quiz button does not navigate to the first quiz question..

Hi,
so I have created an interactive software simulation guide for users of my organisation. At the end of this guide there is a quiz (multiple choice, true or false questions) with 15 slides. At the end of the quiz the results screen is displayed with the "Review Quiz" button. Clicking this navigates the user to slide 72/245 rather than the beginning of the quiz, the first question.
How can this be fixed?!
Many thanks,
Achello

You have an interactive object somewhere on that slide that is scored to be added to the quiz.
Open the Advanced Interaction dialog (F9) and look for the object there. Remove the score.

5310 - questions and suggestions

Hey everybody!
I bought a red 5310 last week and so far have been really happy with it. My previous phone was 5140, used it for a few years and was really happy with it...like I have been with all of my Nokia phones. Now I have a few questions regarding my new phone, these are more like me wondering if it can be done rather than something actually being wrong with the phone.
1) Is there any way to use the wallpapers from the Nokia media player (like Sine waves, Vivid burst etc) as the theme background image for the phone? Do I have to download a theme editor to modify an existing theme to use a different background image? Where/how can I get the media player wallpaper files? Any recommendations on the software required to do this?
2) Is there a way to make your phone connect to the internet via a pc? Yeah, the other way round =) I'm living abroad for some 5 more months and won't be having internet access for my phone (don't really need it for anything). Still there's a few things I'd like to try on it, so is there a way to relay my internet connection to the phone via Bluetooth or the usb cable?
3) Is there a way to modify the sound volume +/- steps? Basically when you come up one step from mute, it's already quite loud, there's no middle ground between mute and average listening volume. The steps after the first two are too loud for listening inside. I'm using Sony MDR-818E earphones. Since the phone's internal speaker is quite worthless and can't see anyone seriously listening to music with it, I feel the volume steps should be geared towards headphones and therefore the steps should be much more subtle. At the moment I'm often left feeling I would've wanted to set the volume between two steps. Yeah, Nokia, if any of your people are reading this, please take note! It's a software thing, options could easily be added! It's a music phone after all and should be optimized for maximum listening comfort as far as cellphones go =)
Anyway, so far I've listened to a couple of hours of music on it and the phone hasn't crashed or restarted or anything like that. Working perfectly fine. I'm using WMA audio 128kbps, as it's totally indistinguishable from the original cd source if you're not plugging in to some high end hi-fi equipment. Fortunately I've been ripping all my music into WMA since mp3-players held like 256mb and don't have to convert my files from MP3 for the phone =)
Thanks in advance for any answers =)

To leoruoskas 2nd Q.
Yes there is. If I got this right you want to download and upload data from and to your 5310 from the net. You can connect with a Bluetooth USB dongle, if your computer does not have any other bluetooth device. I bought my Prodige Bluetooth Dongle v2.0 from Verkkokauppa.com before I even got my phone. When BT is active the phone and the camera on the phone will be visible on the folder tree on your resourcemanager, if using WIN OS. The connection quality has been no less than good all times, when I've used my gismos.
There were some connection problems, when the previous version of Nokia PC Suite had only connections available by the type Nokia phones have or used to have. The radio buttons were on n/a state when trying to connect.
The never V 6.85 has configuration setup to manage other installed devices that can connect the phone and PC. You can also connect Audio gateway from the Bluetooth objects and listen the music on the phone with your PC or laptop. I have SPDIF sent to 6.1 DigiAmp and most High-Q MP3- and AAC-files sound almost as if they were orginals on a CD for that matter.

Inteview questions: Please suggest

Hi SAP Gurus
I have a few questions, could you please answer them:
1) which of the following is relevant for delivery ; item category or sched line category and why. because both have a check button and what it is significance then.
2) From where does item category usage comes and what is its significance.
3)Shipping conditions are maintained for which partner function in customer master.
4)Storage location is determined on the basis of storage condn, shipping point and plant. Then what is the use of storage location rules and how they are applied.
5)When the pricing is done, is it applicable to header level or item level.
6) What are group conditions and header conditions, in which one of these there is no access sequence. Could somebody give me a scenario in which we can use group condition and what are the configuration needs to be done for this.
7) In consignment stock process there are 4 steps involved, which of them are not mandatory.
Thanks in advance
Naveen

Hi
Please donot post more questions in a single thread. If you post it separately, you will get many responses and detailed explanations from more members.
Regarding your queries.,
1. Relevant for delivery field in Item Category is for TEXT Items and for others you should configure the field in Schedule lines.
3. Shipping conditions will be defaulted from the CMR of SP. If a value exists in the sales document type (eg. OR) then it will have priority and will replace the value defaulted from CMR.
5. The pricing applies to Item Level only. But you cannot determine different procedures for different line items.
6. Header conditions will not have access sequence and you cannot create condition records for header conditions in VK11.
7. In consignment process - the first two steps are mandatory i.e., Consignment fillup and consignment issue.
The other two steps are required only if there are returns from the customer(not consignee) and if there are any unsold stocks at the consignee.
Thanks,
Ravi

First mac, questions on managing external drives

Have been using iphones, ipods, apple tv's, ipads for a long time. Finally got my first mac (macbook air). Hoping some people can help with a few questions on external drives, I have two nas drives on my network:
- In finder each drive shows up with its official name, is there any way to give it an alias type name (in windows I would map it to a letter).
- On the NAS there is a 'share' folder with all of my content. I added this to my devices section for easy access, but again, is there a way to give this an alias? Both NAS's have 'share' folders and I can't tell the difference between them. I see an option to create an 'alias' for folders within share, but can I create an alias name that apps can recognize for the 'share' itself?
- I added the 'share' to my login list for my account to mount it on startup, is that the best way to do it? I checked the box to hide it but the finder still pops up with it on startup.
- General question on finder. When I download and install software it usually shows up on the desktop and in finder with an 'eject' button next to it. Aren't these just folders with files in them or are they something different that causes them to have an eject button? Just trying to understand how things work behind the scenes and it is confusing to see downloaded software behave like an external device that you would eject.
Thanks in advance for any help you can provide. Really like the mac in general, but just need to adjust to all the new concepts.
Thanks,
Peter

i may have an alternative:
if you are comfortable with AppleScript, you could edit this script to suit your situation:
try
mount volume "afp://<AirPort Extreme Name>.local/<Share Volume Name>"as user name "<Share Username>" with password "<Share password>"
end try
this script just places the drive's icon on the desktop. save it as an application and add that to your login items.
credit for the script goes to Tesserax.

those are .dmg's (disk images).

And I'm getting:

Ensure that the name is correct and that the component or

The 1 question I have with your code that is different than
mine is the
query. Mine, I had hoped would take the info from the
previous event,
and add a number of months to it before adding it into the
table.
It looks like yours simple duplicates the event without
changing that
date, correct?

Question regarding suggestion of new features

I'm probably going to touch on a sensitive topic, but please hear me out. In working with some legacy systems and I have the need to deal with unsigned values. Needless to say this is difficult to do in Java. There are some work around solutions, but they are hardly ideal. I would like to suggest this feature be added to the language. The question I have is how do I go about suggesting a new feature and get the ball rolling? Is it as simple as forking and developing it all yourself hoping it gets merged in or does it mean you have to go through the JCP?
Thoughts?

TuringPest wrote:
you still havent shown that you NEED unsigned ints.
That's kind of an odd statement. Let me see if I'm hearing you right. I don't NEED unsigned ints because I can always cast them up to longs, etc and handle them that way? Does the fact that one is not the other play a role? Say like I were to commit that back to a database (or worse, a binary file). I'd have to always do some conversion and handle an overflow possibility because I'm treating it as a long...
also, there might be another good reason beyond the fact that they arent really necessary:
the java opcodes were made to fit into a byte.
as it is now, a lot of those opcodes are used
for primitive conversions and every permutation of primitive arithmetic.
if they added 4 more primitives to the existing 6...Couldn't that statement apply to any language addition? "I'm sorry I shouldn't do it because I've only got a byte and need to save it for more useful stuff."

I'm getting ready to edit a project that is going to be shot on a Panasonic HVX 200- onto 8 gig "P2" cards, downloading them on set to a mini mobile editing system to a Digital Hard drive. The production company is going to send me the hard drive. It will apparently be shot 24p advanced. Normally, everything I've worked on for years has been shot on 35mm or 16mm and transferred to beta or Dbeta for me to edit with. I will not be finishing this project - only offlining, but I have some questions:
I can edit 24p Advanced HD with FCP, correct?
Since It's only going to be on a hard drive, should I transfer it to my CalDigit SATA RAID to edit with?
I use an AJA io SDI box and the new JVC flatpanel HD/SD broadcast monitor. Will I be able to output this on my monitor with this setup?
Anything special to look for when outputting 24p EDLs?
Basically, any advice on workflow with this would be greatly appreciated. I'm an old-school, film and Avid convertee and I hope to make a smooth transition to HD.

The raw P2 files. They're in a folder with the job name. It's listed "Card 1", "Card 2", etc... I'm copying them over as we speak to the RAID.
No no no. STop...stop now. That is NOT what you are supposed to do. You need to import the footage FROM that drive using the P2 IMPORT (or Log and Import...whatever the FCP 6 term for it is)...LEAVE the raw on the Lacie. Importing them converts them to Quicktime files you can edit.
You gotta watch this tutorial before you go ANY further:

When I create a Capture Scratch folder, I tend to get several "Capture Scratch" folders inside of that folder (as opposed to having them all in the OMFI folder in the Avid). How do I keep them all organized into one folder (or do I need to do this?)\
Stop thinking in Avid terms now. Get that out of your head.
When you choose the CAPTURE SCRATCH, choose the drive itself. NOT A FOLDER ON THAT DRIVE. This way you'll have all the right folders on the base level of the drive.
How do I keep them all organized into one folder (or do I need to do this?)
Click on Underdog to get to my blog...then click on the DVD on the right hand side. This is my tutorial DVD on how to organize yourself in FCP. FCP does things VERY differently from an Avid, and if you take the Avid approach you'll get lost and burried, FAST. Buy this DVD (shameful plug) and watch it. But watch that tutorial first.
Again, this will be conformed elsewhere, but hopefully, my EDL and ref tape will do the trick.
Get this figured out now. Talk to who is finishing it because this workflow is VERY different from a tape based one. There is no offline, you are cutting at full resolution. There is no conform, as there will be no recapturing of the footage. It is unnecessary. They need to talk to the finishing house now and get this figured out before you do something you shouldn't.

Question or Suggestion

I have spent the last few months digitizing my library of DVDs Movies and TV Shows. Now I've got them imported into iTunes, however when I have a long list of episodes in my playlist it can take forever to scroll down to the point.
Is there a quick way to jump to the most recently or unwatched/played item in the list? And if there isn't it would be nice if a double tap down on the remote would kick that in.
Also I'm coming up on filling a 2TB HD. I've got a second 2TB HD that I'll be adding the new content too. Will I have to manually organize those or will iTunes still organize but not copy the media to the other drive?

If you uncheck the option to 'copy files' then iTunes will leave your files alone exactly as you've organised them - all it does is add the information about the file into the iTunes library database so that e.g. your Apple TV can find them. So, if you want to organise your files in a particular way on your second hard drive it would be best to do this first, before adding them into iTunes.
I agree with your suggestion re: Apple TV, in fact there's a few things they could improve but having looked at some other media streamers I still think Apple TV is ahead of the game - hope they keep it up with regular updates!

First opinion :questions ans suggestions.
