Flags and Follow-up

Unless I am going loopy and suffering a flashback to my Entourage days, there used to be a feature in Mail that enabled me, when flagging a message for follow-up, to also set a reminder to follow-up it up by a certain date and time (automatically setting it as an action in the 'To Do' list and offering an alarm in iCal).
Has anyone else lost these functions recently? Have they mysteriously disappeared in one of the recent OS X updates? Could it be that Gates has paid Jobs to have them removed in a conspiracy to coax people into shelling-out for the new Office 2008?
I would be grateful if somebody could help resolve this (or failing this, confirm whether I am, indeed, going loopy or becoming paranoid).
Thank you!

When I flag an email with my gmail account using Apple's Mail App how do I flag and set a reminder that at a specific to follow

When I flag an email with my gmail account using Apple's Mail App how do I flag and set a reminder that at a specific to time to follow up with that email ?

Welcome to the Apple community.
If you are unable to remember your password, security questions, don’t have access to your rescue address or are unable to reset your password for whatever reason, your only option is to contact Apple ID Support, upon speaking to an operator you should explain that your problem is related to your Apple ID, this way you will not be charged for assistance, even if you don’t have an AppleCare plan.
The operator will take you through some steps you may have already tried, however they need to be sure they have exhausted all usual approaches before trying to reset your account, so you should try to be helpful and show patience with the procedure.
The operator will need to verify they are speaking to the account holder and may ask you some questions that only the account holder could know, and you will need to answer them if the process is to proceed.
Once the operator has verified your identity they will send a message through to your device which contains an alpha numeric code, which you will need to read back to them.
Once this has been completed they will send an email to your iCloud email address after a period of 24 hours, so you should check that mail is enabled in your devices iCloud settings.
Upon receipt of the email, use the reset link provided to reset your password, after which you should be able to make the adjustments to iCloud that you wish to do.

Discontinuation indicator and follow up material.

Hi,
I am facing the strange issue for which i need your expertise. The requirement is like:
1. "X" material is discontinued and "Y" is as follow-up in two plants A & B. Discontinaution group and follow-up group has also been assigned in the BOM.
2. Now The client want to reverse the settings . means "Y" should be discontinued and "X" should be follow-up in both plants A & B.
Now I have removed the discontinuation indicator and follow up material from "X" in both plants. But when I am going to discontinue the "Y" material and putting " X" as a follow-up material, The system is giving the message "The specified follow-up material results in recursiveness
Message no. M3609
Diagnosis
You have entered a follow-up material. However, the BOM explosion for the follow-up material leads to the discontinued material, resulting in unpermissible recursiveness.
Procedure
Enter another follow-up material or cancel the entry.
Please suggest me where I am missing in my settings and what is the reason for this message.
Regards
Deepak Sharma

Dear ,
Check the following :
1.Validity of the Bill Of Material or any deletion flag is set in the present BOM.
2.Please check the following SAP notes :
Note 161742 - Consulting note: BOM recursion/low-level code 999
Note 839879 - Trace 'BOM is recursive'
Note 139517 - Recursiveness for follow-up materials
Note 42891 - Recursiveness check
Hope this will help you to figure it out
Regards

Display All Marked / Flagged for Follow Up Emails Separately

Display All Marked / Flagged for Follow Up Emails Separately
I was wondering, is there actually a way to display flagged emails in some sort of folder or separate view at least, as it is common within desktop mail applications and any other user interfaces from free email providers like Gmail, Yahoo!, or AOL and the likes?
It's very complicated and not very user friendly to mark an email for follow up, because you need to decide at what point in the future you want to be reminded. When that day arrives and you're not ready to reply yet, you will have to go through each follow up email again and repeat those steps to re-mark them for a later date. And that is really annoying. Or am I missing something here?
Can't I just simply mark my emails, like, star them in order to review them later and to be able to have a look at them from time to time, just like it is possible in other applications or in your browser?
I have noticed that there is an option to star an email within a Gmail account, but I'm not quite convinced that they sync both ways properly anyway. Also, that feature doesn't come with all email services. For example, how would I star an email in my AOL account?
I understand that BlackBerry is not based on IMAP and therefore has its limitations, however, it would be nice if there was another solution for this, or an explanation at least. It's simply impossible to go through hundreds and thousands of emails in order to find a flagged email.
It's already a pain that the emails themselves won't sync (read/unread) with your desktop and other devices, but do you have any advice or workaround to improve the synchronization of flagging or starring?
I have been using BlackBerrys for many years now, and I really still enjoy them, but the fact that it isn't based on IMAP is a big downside and no longer up to date. Times really have changed.
Another thing: When I mark as follow up, the default time always seems to be 5 p.m. -- probably because the calendar day starts at 9 AM and ends at 5 PM by default. I thought changing the "day ends" option would do the trick and also change the default time for the reminder, unfortunately it isn't. Is there another way to change that, or will I have to set the time manually every time?
Your help is very much appreciated.

Customer Service Miscommunication and a large lack of communication and follow through

I seem to be having a lot of difficulty with Verizon Wireless Customer Service the last few months and am becoming increasingly frustrated. Let me start by saying I have been with Verizon for years, my wife, kids, and in laws all have Verizon, and my Father and Step mother are soon making a decision to move their service over from AT&T. I may tell them to think again about that.
October to 2012 we bought my step daughter a basic phone. She has had a number of problems with it. It doesn't hold a charge, it restarts or shuts down randomly. They sent her a replacement, and that phone had the same issues. So we decided we would upgrade to an iPhone for her back in March. Customer service said her plan was grandfathered in for an early upgrade and she would be eligible in May. Great, so we waited a couple of months and when we looked into upgrading, the sales rep said she is not eligible until October, no early upgrades are available. We told him what the CSR said, he said thats not what his system said and he began walking away. I asked him to please call customer service. He did, and after 45 minutes on the phone between Customer service and him and then customer service and my wife, it was determined she could upgrade that day, but it would have to be through the phone. I wish she did it on the phone there so all of this time wouldn't had been wasted, but we had things to do so she said we would call back when in the car. The sales rep told us to ask about the free promotion Verizon is offering a free 32 GB iPhone 5C.
We got in the car, called the Customer Service number, talked to a rep who said that line was not eligible until October. We told him about the entire conversation we just had 5 minutes ago at the store, he just kept insisting we were not eligible. I asked to speak with a supervisor, he then put us on hold for 45 minutes and then we got disconnected.
We called back, spoke with another rep, told her about the upgrade, were told once again we were not eligible until October. Once again we went through the entire conversation from the store, told her about being on the phone an hour and getting disconnected, she said she would look into everything, put us on hold for 15 minutes, came back and said we would be eligible June 30th....not today. I asked about the Free 32GB 5C, she said that was for "select" customers and she could not offer that to us. This was now disappointing on a few levels, between the last 2 hours of getting nowhere and now we are not eligible for something others can get, this left a bad taste in my mouth. She put us on hold for a supervisor. After going back and forth on being told by multiple reps we could upgrade in May and now being told we can't and not being given any reasons as to why this changes from one person to another, the Supervisor said she would make us eligible to upgrade early that day, but that because it was before 6/30 we could not get the 5C promotion. We asked if we would be eligible for the promotion if we waited until June 30, she said yes, but we could not get it before then. We confirmed this 3 times and asked her to put a note in the system so we would not have to go through this again. She confirmed with me 3 times, we could upgrade that day and pay the discounted price for the 5C, but if we waited until 6/30 we would be eligible for the 32GB 5C at no charge. This was what we were looking for and were willing to wait.
The other day I called to confirm that when we walk into the store next Monday-6/30 the notes were in the system, and we would not have any problem getting the promotion. The rep said we would not be eligible to upgrade for any discounts until October....<sigh> Went through previous conversations once again, asked for her to please look through the notes, she saw the supervisors note showing we could upgrade at the discount but no mention of the 5C promotion and said Marketing had not "Flagged" us for that promo and we could not get it. I asked once again to speak to a supervisor, she looked through the account and repeated the same thing about not being flagged but she would send an email to the supervisor that added the notes and find out what was going on. I asked to be CC'ed so I can have this all in writing, she said yes, and to expect to hear back from someone by the end of the next business day.
It is now 4 days later, I have not heard from anybody, I figured today I would look at MY plan and see if I could at least use one of the lines on my account and see if I was eligible for the promotion. Mind you, last year when I upgraded to the 5S, I was talked into adding my Verizon iPad to it, and instead of going month to month on it, add it to a shared plan, and I would be able to use the line on my iPad to upgrade to a newer phone, he even showed me how to do it myself. So now when I was looking to do what I was promised I could do, I am not able to do it, it only showed I can upgrade to another tablet only. I did the online chat and the rep told me that policies can change from day to day without notice. This does not sit well with me at all. I get sold to do something based on what the rules are one day, and tomorrow the rules change, this to me is equivalent to Bait & Switch and I now have to question the ethics here. This also tells me Verizon at this point takes retained customers for granted where my past experience was so much better than it is now.
Due to the complete lack of communication and simply keeping notes of previous conversations in their system so you don't have to keep explaining yourself over and over and being told different things by every rep I speak to down the line, I am not just back at square one with my step daughters phone, but a step back on what I signed up for on my plan.
AT&T has a program now that pays the Early Termination Fee and gives full discounts and Promos for new customers. I may be forced to look into this as it will cost me much less down the line in time and money, and I can use talk and data at the same time.
All I ask from Verizon is to listen, communicate, follow up and follow through.

Feel free to sink this, I rang and sorted it.

Flag for Follow Up

Does anyone know of a way to send a javamail message with a flag that functions similarly to the Outlook flags?
In Outlook:
New Message> Actions> Flag for Follow Up...

Flags are specific to the mail store. This means that you cannot send a message and have the flag persist on the remote server.
You can set the "priority" of a message by adding a header but that doesn't mean the client will do anything intersting with it.

BADI to get GR done flag , Final Invoice flag and Delivery completed flag

Hi all,
An Idoc needs to be triggered for PO line items to indicate different flags. As soon as MIGO or MIRO is done for PO line item, I have to check three flags namely GR done flag , Final Invoice flag and Delivery completed flag and send information of these flags as set.
I want to know which BADI or User exit will give information to indicate that either of one or all above flags are set for PO line item as soon as MIGO or MIRO is used.
Thanks in advance,
Madhura

When Purchase order is created with reference to contract, system carry
out the check whether Document date of PO should be within contract

the "validity start" and "validity end" date of PO, message 06 040
"Validity period of contract does not start until &" or message
06 041 " Validity period of contract expired on &" is raised.
Same check is also carried out during any change in PO (txn ME22N).
Please use one of following option to close the PO.
1. Change the category of message 06041 as warning in customization.
Txn OLME.
Environment Data -> Define Attributes of System Messages ->System

Flagged for follow up emails in my reminders?

The new reminders and flagged email system is great BUT I cannot see flagged emails set as reminders in Outlook to appear in my reminders list. The process is:
- Email is sent out regarding a quote
- Flagged for follow up is created via a rule
- Flagged for follow up email is located in my tasks list in Outlook (Exchange Server)
- Email is flagged in the inbox of my iphone, but the reminder does not appear in my reminders list.
Does anyone have a suggestion for this? I can get the reminder to show up from Outlook if nothing is attached to the reminder.
This is a gab I would really like to close up, because it will become a pain if I don't. I essentially want to create list of emailed quotes to follow up on to appear in my reminders on my phone.
Thanks in advance for any help.

You obviously have never had a job that requires you to be in and out of meetings all day. I can't tell you how many times my phone has gone off in a meeting b/c I forgot to take it out of my pocket and use the switch when the meeting starts (as the presenter it's even more embarrassing). Even worse, times I have remembered to flip the switch, I have forgotten to flip it back after the meeting and end up missing calls for hours since sometimes I don't feel it vibrating.
Yes, I do attend a considerable number of meetings on a daily basis, and I, like EVERY ONE ELSE I KNOW, turns the phone to vibrate or slent during the course of meeting. The fact that you seem to struggle with this may well say more about you than the phone design. Being able to control your phone to prevent disruption is a pretty basic business skill.
The problem isn't that Apple didn't facilitate this feature, but that they lock any other apps out of creating this feature do to limited access to the iCloud Calendar. The only way to get around this is to jailbreak. I shouldn't have to adapt to taking the phone out of my pocket and flipping the switch before and after every meeting; the point of technology is to make life easier. If Apple truly wants to continue becoming the corporate platform of choice, then these types of changes are not "a waste of time and overhead."
Yes, third party apps are locked from a considerable amount of interaction with the other apps and Os functions. It is one of the characteristics of the system that makes it relatively safe from malware and other intrusions. A far more important corporate feature than trying to completely dumb proof a phone.
It wasn't my intent to hijack this thread, but it was obviously your intent based on your thoughtless fanboy comment.
Is your intent to make your self sound ignorant? If so you are succeeding.
Tying back the original post to this same topic, almost every corporate environment relies on Exchange server, so the inability to sync the Outlook flags as reminders in iOS is also a glaring absence. Has no one found a way to solve this?
I am connecting to Exchange and get my flags with no problem, regardless if they are set on Outlook on the PCor in the iOS mail app. Comms team here recently polled everyone using Active Sync on mobile devices and found zero instances of issues with this within my company. That's several thousand users globally. Obviously it isn't a universal issue, and very likely has more to do with Exchange deployments than the operating system on the phones and iPads, probably an issue with Active directory, Active Sync or similar Exchange/IIS function. That means Microsoft is going to need to provide some guidance to Exchange server admins to resolve, and past history would indicate that will be very slow in coming.
In the meantime, there are work arounds such as using dedicated action folders; a third party app that allows settings priority, dues date, etc. within it (Boxer does this); One Note; or applying some basic mail management process (which would be a good idea anyway).

A bug with flags and active view? Or is it a (bad) feature?..

As I mark an image in a folder view as flagged and then switch to a collection view and look on the same image, it's not flagged.
I expect, that information about marking the image as flagged remains on that image, not on a current active view.

It's as designed - Flags are local to a Folder/Collection.
>Or is it a (bad) feature?
It depends - some think it's a great and others hate it with a passion.

Same discontinue and follow up material?

I have used before this function having a follow up material with indicator 1 and effective-out date. However, this time I have 3 materials A, B, C.
The logic I want to use is the following but I'm not sure if SAP supports this:
A = discontinue material and B = Follow-up material. Using indicator 1
B = discontinue material and C = Follow -up material. Using indicator 1.
So far, SAP is not allowing me to have B as discontinue and follow-up material at the same time. Any insights?
Thanks for your help.

Hi Lee,
If you try to set the discontinuation for a follow-up material, then error message "Message no. 61224 -Multi Level Discontinuation not suported" will be generated when you try to run MRP. Refer Note 398238 - Error message 61224 for parts provided
For more information on Discontinuation data, refer Concept of Discontinuation Data - Material Master and BOM
Thanks & Regards,

If you need any additional info, revert.

I bought a brand new mac and follow through setting up process with my apple id but when I open App Store I don't see lion into the purchases list. why?

I bought a brand new mac and follow through setting up process with my apple id but when I open App Store I don't see lion into the purchases list. why?

Updates come through Software Update not the App Store. If you have to reinstall Lion that is done via Internet Recovery.
OS X Lion- About Lion Recovery
OS X Lion- Run Software Update to use Lion Internet Recovery
Lion maintenance and recovery operate via the Recovery HD. It's possible to create a separate recovery disk on a flash drive using OS X Lion: About Lion Recovery Disk Assistant.
To boot into the Recovery HD:
Boot to the Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.

If you have installed a new hard drive , you will need to have formatted it in Disk Utility correctly. This may explain your problem.
Boot into your 10.6 Install disk again at the top menubar > Utilities > select Disk utility and in there select your new hard drive, and select the tab Erase and choose to make the format as Mac OS Extended Journaled. When that is finished look in the main window to make sure that the partition map scheme says GUID Partition Table.
Now go to the Restore tab and reinstall from your backup.

Flags and colors not taking (seems like a bug to me)

I'm seeing a bit of an issue I am not sure I understand.
I have a folder called
"creative" with four albums in it:
1
2
3
4
If I select all the images in the folder and TAG them and add a ORANGE COLOR these tags and colors show up on all the images in the Folder.
However, /some/ of the images in some of the folders have images that are showing up without the Orange Color and in some case there are images without the Flag or the Orange Color.
This is so confusing it seems like a bug to me.
What am I missing?

Hi. The first image is where I selected all the images and FLAGGED AND COLORED THEM.
The next two images show SUB-Albums in this folder where there are images that are either not flagged or not colored...
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/15285654/all%20colored%20and%20flagged_FOLDER.png
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/15285654/not%20flagged_ALBUM.png
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/15285654/not%20colored_ALBUM.png
Is this something I am not understanding or not doing correctly?
Thank you!
