Forum Question

Hello. I'm new here. I've notice that many questions are posted and viewed but it seems many go unanswered. Are there any Apple people who come here and answer questions, or is the forum users only? Thanks!

Thanks very much, Jim. As I suspected, I am the problem! I had changed nothing but apparently a setting changed itself. Problem was not exactly as you proposed but it led me to a solution. Under Settings/Preferences/Display/Show all posts in a topic was selected and I changed it to Show first post in a topic and number of replies (Default).
Your very prompt help is much appreciated. It hasn't escaped my notice that you help lots of folks on here and my guess was that my answer would come from you.

Forum question: How to set Show All Messages as default?

I seem to remember there was a way to set this as a default, so that when one clicks on a topic, all new (unread) posts are shown. Currently, I only see a subset of the new postings, and I have to click on "Show All Messages" to see them all. The number shown initially seems to be arbitrary. I know that postings that I've read will not show up, but how can I get all unread postings to show by default?
Thanks!

OTN Discussion Forum questions are gone

My OTN Discussion Forum questions seem to have been deleted. They were only about 1-2 months old. Does anyone know if they are deleted or archived after a certain time period? I'd like to find them for reference if anyone knows how to do that?

You are posting today's question with username 18e07053-637d-44a1-97ce-f070d9c69384
That is a system-generated name for a new account.
Were those other posts created with the same user account?
Have you recently tried to change your login name (which has been known to totally muck up user profiles, by the way) ?
The site software has no possible ability to magically merge postings from multiple accounts.
I suggest you try to remember older threads and find them using the site search function.
If you can find those threads, you might be able to see if they were posted with the same user account or some previous account.
Once you do that, you can return to this thread and give us all more information on what you may have found..

Can iPad or Android tablets reply to forum questions?

Can the iPad be used to write replies to forum questions?
I ask because I have been using an Android tablet recently and though it can be used to input text into browser etc. text fields, it stubbornly refuses to reveal its keyboard when I try to respond to forum questions.
I don't know whether it is a fault with my device, user error or whether iPads and other tablets just can't be used for this purpose.

It completely depends on the specific forum/post you are thinking about.
As stedman1 pointed out, the mobile versions of browsers (i.e., iPad safari, etc.) are almost always limited with respect their desktop versions. For example, if your forum uses flash to post messages, you will never be able to post a message using an iPad at this moment since iPad does not support flash.
That being said, the web has started to be more mobile (and getting more in each day). Most of the websites (and forums) have either dedicated mobile web versions, where they make sure that you can access all information as you were in a normal computer. If that does not work, they even create dedicated apps (there are iPad apps for some webpages) so that you can post/explore the webpage through the app.
Also, one final (and maybe not yet good solution) is to use cloud browsers. The idea with these browsers is that they run on servers and transmit the webpage back to you as images. Your actions (click, keyboard input, etc.) are also captured and transmitted back to the server. This way, you can emulate a real desktop browser on your iPad, which will have the same limitations (or unlimitations) as a desktop browser.
If you have a specific webpage, etc. in mind, just tell us and we can check on your behalf.

Cannot View Older Forum Questions and Bookmarking

Hi,
I noticed in the Lightroom for Beginners forum that you can only view one page of forum questions. You cannot view older forum questions/posts (i.e. pages 2,3,4...). There also is no way to bookmark and/or follow questions/topics/discussions.
Unless I just have a crazy computer
Is it possible to update the forum for these features???
Thanks
Andrew

lov2bugu, you said things the exact way I wanted to express them! It was like watching me talking to a SONY’s CEO.
I don’t really think they are not aware of the problems. SONY used to be the 27th largest company in the world, according to Forbes. They are now at the 456th place!!
They are aware of their problems and I think, the move to buy the remaining stocks from Ericsson, is a move to bounce back into the market. They found the right time, where the stock is too low and the economics around the globe don’t look promising enough. I have to recognize them, all the bad phases they went into this year … hacking attack, loss of their factory in London, global economic climate etc.
But these are not excuses good enough not to produce quality, reliable and technologically advanced goods. I think that SONY is not to blame for the bad course SE has had. I think this is what SONY wants to revert. They want to “embody” all their technology … BRAVIA engines (TV Tech), Walkman and Cybershot tech (using Carl Zeiss lenses), VAIO (Comp tech) and finally PS3. Ericsson tried to integrate them, unsuccessfully.
Overall, I thing SONY, did not have or did not attempt to have the control of SE, hence, the answer you got back from SONY “… anything related to SE must be posted on the website of SE”. I think they will bounce. Just give ‘em some time. I’m willing to give them time, but not too much though. Just because I’ve always loved this brand!

Response to forum questions and latest updates

We have prepared the following FAQ to address some of the common concerns and questions on this forum; thank you for your feedback to date.
I have opened a seperate discussion thread http://forum.stage.creative.com/showthread.php?t=6283.
Driver & Application Questions
• Where do I download drivers and applications for my product  To download drivers and applications, please follow these steps: Click on SupportClick on DownloadsChoose the region you are in, and the countrySelect your product type, then your specific product/model and click next Choose your Operating System (such as Windows Vista 32-bit or 64-bit)Begin to download the various programs needed.
• Will future driver releases be certified for Windows Vista  Yes, all of our future releases will be Microsoft certified.
• Applications from the original Sound Blaster X-Fi CD do not work in Windows Vista. Will there be downloads available for all missing applications and when  Driver downloads and basic software such as the Audio Console are available for download from our web site. A free CD containing the full application suite will soon to be available to order from our Online Store (a Shipping & Handling charge will apply).
• Why does the packaging say Windows Vista Ready when there is no Vista-compatible install CD in the packaging  This is to indicate that drivers are available online to support Windows Vista.
• Is there a difference in the Windows Vista and Windows XP implementation of the X-Fi CMSS3D feature  Yes. The architecture of Vista doesn t allow a feature like CMSS-3D to operate in hardware for applications that use the Microsoft API s. If a game for example uses OpenAL, then CMSS-3D will run in hardware but if a Microsoft API is used it operates on the host within Windows Vista s application level effects architecture.
• Is there a difference in the Windows Vista and Windows XP implementation of the Crystalizer feature  No.
• Why is it taking so long for Creative to provide full driver and application support for its products in Windows Vista, given the 6 year development time of the OS  Even though Windows Vista has been in development for several years and in public beta for a long time, the key reason for delays in providing finalised signed drivers for Windows Vista which affected several manufacturers is that the audio features in Windows Vista were incomplete until a few months before its final release. Other features in Windows Vista such as APO s (Audio Processing Objects) could not be installed for our products until do***entation and tools were available from Microsoft. This was an issue for all aftermarket sound card vendors. Since we received the correct tools and do***entation for implementation, we began working diligently to finish the development and release the driver updates for our range. Given the considerable number of products, it is not feasible to release everything at once, so we staggered the driver release schedule.
• There is a lengthy gap between driver releases. Would it be possible to have more frequent beta-version releases  We focus on delivering stable driver sets as this is more efficient than multiple interim releases. We anticipate releasing a further X-Fi update in the end-May/June timeframe. Feature Loss
• Why is SPDIF passthrough not working with Windows Vista 64-bit's Will it ever  SPDIF passthrough is available in the latest X-Fi update. For the Audigy Series, we cannot support this feature in Windows Vista 64-bit.
• Will decoding of Dolby Digital and DTS signals be supported in the future If not, why not  These functions are not supported at driver level in Windows Vista and going forward will be supported at application level by applications such as Power DVD or WinDVD.
• Will DVD-Audio be supported in the future  We are not supporting DVD-Audio in Windows Vista.
• Will 6.1 speaker mode be available in future drivers If not, is this because of Creative or Microsoft  No, as Windows Vista does not support this speaker configuration.
Bugs/Specific Issues
• Why is the CPU utilization on some Windows Vista systems significantly higher when using X-Fi CMSS-3D than on Windows XP  This is a 3rd party product issue on which Creative cannot comment. We have made CPU utilization improvements in the forthcoming X-Fi update.
• Why do I get BSOD and system instability when an X-Fi card is installed in my Windows Vista system with 4GB or more of RAM  This issue will be addressed in the next X-Fi driver update. It is also recommend to check with your motherboard manufacturer for the latest version of the motherboard BIOS.
• Enabling the Crystalizer during ASIO Playback with an Elite Pro causes reproduceable BSODs (CTEXFIFX.DLL) why  We have reproduced this issue and are working on a solution.

Oh and where are my manners!
Please, and thanks
Gift.

Option to change a Subject Line in a Forum question

Hello,
In Forums, many times I see that people create duplicate questions because after posting a question and getting some responses, they realize that the Subject Line is not descriptive enough .
e.g
/thread/1520926 [original link is broken]
/thread/1519271 [original link is broken]
I personally feel that if we provide an option to a question's owner to change the subject line at any point of time( even after many replies) if needed, it could avoid some duplications in questions.
(Let me know if its already there and I dint know about this feature
Regards,
Pooja Pandey

Hi Pooja,
You can change the title and the post itself, but you need to realize the mistake.
If I remember correctly, you have 15 minutes time for this.
There were some strategists in the past who posted "place holders" or went back and edited their posts once someone had provided a better solution. This is not main the intention of the forums and sharing you knowledge at the time of posting.
My recommendation is to do a quick check on the OP before answering by checking their recent posts via the user profile, and if you find the question interesting but are not sure about aspects of it, then don't rush in but take your time to work it out.
A respectfull OP should appreciate this, and the quality of the discussion around the solution.
Personally, I have also learnt very valuable skills from SDN when someone stepped in to say "Sorry Julius, but that is a legacy approach and you can now use XYZ..." or "That is bad advise, because you have not considered ABC.." etc.
Such discussions are worth gold to everyone, and there is nothing wrong with making "innocent" mistakes.
My 2 cents of thinking before posting,
Julius

Thanks for the images to help explain the problem. What happens when you hit F5 (refresh the page)? What happens if you hit Menu? What happens if you hit the AVSIM icon and let the page reload? I doubt there is a fix for this but Tom, the owner and garbage cleanup maintenance worker here at AVSIM Headquarters, will have to take a look to confirm. I’m guessing that your I-Pad browser is trying to conserve space and shrinking the Icon which contains the search engine. Thanks for bringing it to our attention. As far as I know you are the only one who has reported this problem which indicates to me the issue is with your I-Pad browser.

Responses to forum questions

after i post a question on the forum do i get notified by email when there is an answer or solution or do i have to go in and change some setting?

Yes, KNKR is right. As far as I know, there's an option to 'subscribe' to the posts, but when you create a topic, this option is already pre selected. So you can uncheck the box too (I know it's not what you want, just an option ) and you can also subscribe to other posts. For example, you can search in the Forum to see if other people have the same issue you have, then subscribe to their posts to see the responses/solutions. PS: see the screen capture below. When I reply to this topic, the option is pre selected

General Forum Question: What Contact Synch Method Are You Using?

This is a question directed towards all forums members using SynchManager to synchronize B2B customers between Web Tools and SAP Business One.
Of the four possible methods listed below:
- WebTools UserID Field
- Email Address
- BusinessOne InternalCode
- Seek and Choose
Which one are you using to synchronize your data?
We're trying to decide between Email Address, BusinessOne InternalCode, and Seek and Choose.

Hi Micheal,
I can not tell you what people are using, but the pros and cons are as follows:
Webtools UserID (the exposed field on the BP contact)
This is the best option if you are willing to do the work of setting this property for all of you users in a meaningful way.
Pros: Allows you assign a meaningful login name for users of the website
Cons: You have to assign he userids (a lot of work if you have 10s of thousands of contacts)
EmailAddress
Pros: hopefully, everyone knows their email address. So this is a meaningful login name.
Cons: B1 does not require email address, so the user will probably end up with an OCPR ID if they don't have an email address.
B1 internal code
Pros: it always works
Cons: no wants to be a number. Your login name will be "1234", password = "whydoIhavesuchahorriblelogin"
Seek and Choose
I consider this the best option, unless you have a better algorithm to populate NPUserID than described below (let me know if you do )
The seek and choose routine works as follows:
1. if they have an NPUserID, user that
2. if they have an email address, user that
3. use the B1 internal code
Pros: User will have the best possible login name.
Cons: You do not know which option the user ended up with
One last note:
v630 (p10--or whatever we are calling it these days), has added a login name to the Webtools user. This addresses the glaring problem of not being able to change login name. Now the user can change their own login. (why did this take 5 years?). Hopefully, this will make this decision less daunting.

How to close a forum question

Once I've received a complete answer to my question in Forum, how can I close the question and at the same time give a thanks to the expert?

You have confirmed that the given reply worked for you and you have marked the thread as solved.<br />
That is all that you can do.

More of a forum question...

I am wondering why some of my past posts aren't listed in "My Posts." As far as i know, I've haven't said anything inflamatory. Funny, yes, inflammatory, no.
Anybody have any ideas?

well
if it isn't on your list "MY POSTS" and the thread it was in is gone then they are gone
if you were the "reason" a thread got pulled you would have gotten an email from the Hosts informing you of that. if you weren't the "reason" then there would be no email.
if you have any more questions about how the discussions work it would be best to ask in the FEEDBACK Section at the top level of the discussions http://discussions.apple.com/forum.jspa?forumID=1076

IPhone Forum questions

Everyone has been extremely helpful to me on this forum. Just about everything I have needed to know about my iPhoneI have gotten here. Just 2 questions.
When I post a topic or question I notice that it sometimes disappears. Is this because there have been no replies in a specific time frame, and space needs to be freed up for other posters? If that is the case, it would make perfect sense to me.
I've seen replies that simply say "bump". What does that mean? I hope this is not a stupid question.
Thanks again to all for your help here.
CD3

When creating a new topic or when replying to an
existing, the thread or topic moves to the top.
Someone enters bump in a posted reply to an existing
thread moves that thread/topic to the top of the
list.
A thread or topic that has no replies gradually moves
down the list but it doesn't disappear. It may be on
page 2,3, or 10, etc. and the Discussions also
include a search. You can also select My Posts to
view all your posts and go straight to the
thread/topic that you participated in.
Thanks Allan. I wanted to give you a specific thanks for your help and support on this forum. I'm glad you replied.
