Frustration and the flight from NOKIA/Symbian

Was looking for a Google Voice app for my 5800 and I came upon THIS web site and blog entry. I thought it really captured a wave of disappointment bubbling up around Nokia and Symbian at large.
I just bought a T-mobile HTC G1and had it unlocked for AT&T. I have to admit I am very impressed. I think I am done w/ Symbian and Nokia unless something changes real soon.
What a shame. Thanks Nokia...we had a great run.

PS - This is the second time I am posting this....the first one was pulled......"don't shoot the messenger".

BI process has gotten stuck and the data from CRM hasn't gotten updated

hai friends am working for BI in CRM....
BI process has gotten stuck and the data from CRM hasn't gotten updated in the BI cubes.
can any one help me to solve this issue???
WHAT MAY BE THE PROBLEM AND WHAT WILL BE THE SOLUTION???
IS THERE I NEED TO RESTART THE PROCESS CHAINS OR WHAT?

Is it already scheduled for a daily run or manually you are running the process chain?
If its manually running then you can select your process chain, and then right click on the start process --> Maintain variant --> Scheduling --> in the scheduler screen , you can click on the Immediate, save the changes and save in the next screen, once it comes back in the main screen, you have a scheduling Icon (Clock idoc). Click on it. Once done then it will be oK.
Or firs the process only failed, then you can right click on the failed process and then choose "Repeat" option to repeat the process.
Also you can check the source system connection is fine or not? RSa1 --> Source system --> CHECK

Hi Jacob...
A $1.00 credit or an authorization hold ...
The $1.00 charge is just an "authorization hold" > iTunes Store & Mac App Store: About credit-card authorization holds that will be credited back to your account usually within 24 to 48 hours.
is their a way i can merge both my balances to buy the new angry birds game!??
If it's a $1 credit from a redeemed iTunes gift card, sorry, but Apple's policy states that Apple ID accounts cannot be merged > Frequently Asked Questions About Apple ID

When doing goods receipt and the movement from QA to unrestricted use there

Dear all,
when doing goods receipt and the movement from QA to unrestricted use there is an yellow error message
Error in EXIT_ SAPMM07_004 : Object 10462311E06/52,Char."LOBM_UDCODE,Value 01 A0,error"VALUE_NOT_FOUND"
Inspection Lot : 10000283512
System Status : UD ICCO SPRQ

Hi,
Did you use the follow up action in the UD code selection? It looks from the error that program is unable to find the UD code.
Kindly check the configurations in QM and see that everything is working fine?
Alternatively, if you are using the follow up action, then remove that first. Do the GR using MIGO -- this will create the inspection lot. Confirm the inspection using QA11 by entering the UD code for acceptance. Thereafter the the stock will rest in QI status. Use MB1B and perform the transfer posting with movement 321 to bring the stock to unrestricted use.
Regards,
Sushant

Hi, I'm new to Labview...How do I export Data to a spreadsheet from an agilent 8510c using labview 6 and the VI from the NI site?

Hi, I'm trying to export data to a spreadsheet from an Agilent 8510c to a laptop(Win XP) using a PCMCIA-GPIB card, Labview 6 and the VI from the NI site. How do I do this? Ideally I'd like the Magnitude and Phase Data, as pairs for each frequency point, but the Real and Imaginary pairs can work just as well. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

When you say the "VI from the NI site", I'm going to assume that you mean the HP8510C driver. If that's the case, then VI called HP8510C Application Example should be your starting point. It returns two 1D arrays - real raw data and imaginary raw data. These can be combined with a Build Array function and the resulting 2D array can be wired to the Write to Spreadsheet File function. This will create a tab or comma separated file that Excel or any other spreadsheet program can import. The very simplest program would look something like the attached picture. You may need to modify the instrument program to suit your requirements but this should get you started.

View your landscape photo with your phone in the upright position.
Tap on the photo once so the background goes black
Take a screenshot now by pressing the round button and the top button together.
Go back into your photos and find this new screenshot - then apply this as your wallpaper. You should be able to resize it :)

How to get the most from Nokia Support Discussions

This forum is a community of users of Nokia products and services from around the world who share their experiences and help people to solve problems. I've been using this forum for a couple of years now, I originally joined because I work in telecomms and I was looking for answers to a few issues that I was experiencing, and like many of the regular members, I've been coming here ever since. There is a really good crowd here, and it is often fun to read the boards as well as informative.
If you have a problem, if nobody else can help, and if you can find us (it's not hard, Discussions all over Google whenever you search for something Nokia-related), then maybe you can hire: The D Team!
The communityThis is a peer-to-peer community, you are usually dealing with people who have an interest in mobile technology, albeit with a particular preference to Nokia, who can help on a wide range of questions - the advantage that we have as a community is that many users have experience of a range of devices and accessories, so you can often get help here about issues concerning Nokia products being used with products from other companies that even Nokia itself cannot offer. There has also recently been a presence of Nokia staff (their usernames are shown in green) who are also helping users on the forum in their own time.
Unlike many forums that we all use regularly, this is an official forum owned and run by Nokia, not the creation of amateur enthusiasts like you and I, so they are much more strict about behaviour than other forums, and the moderators will remove anything that is offensive or disrespectful to other users, or which may cause offence to users of a sensitive nature. Basically, you should treat other users the way you could treat another member of the public in a public place - too many people take advantage of the anonymity offered by the internet to behave in a way that they would not normally do.
This forum is not a source of official support from Nokia, for that you have to call or e-mail from the "Contact us" link. Most of us are just normal consumers like you, therefore we don't have information on when products, services, software updates etc. will be available so it's futile to ask. Nokia doesn't even publish this information in most cases, so even the Nokia employee members probably wouldn't be able to answer these sorts of questions even if they do have the information.
Tips for getting your question answered:
(1) Search firstSomebody else may already have posted the same question, so you can save yourself time by checking first if the answer you need is already published on the forum.
(2) Choose the right boardPeople are online at different times, we may be taking a break from our work, relaxing at home after a meal, flicking back to the forum whilst doing other surfing on the 'net or anything else, and people will look in boards where they have a specific personal interest so, for example, if you have a problem playing a video on your N96 use the Imaging and videos board in the Ovi and Mobile Media section or if you have a problem installing themes or applications on your 6220 Classic, use the Phone Applications under Software. Posting these questions on the Nseries and S60 smartphones board might see them get lost amongst lots of technical questions about the phone itself, you have a better chance of getting an answer by choosing the right place to ask it.
(3) Write a clear titleSpeaking for myself, I don't have time to read everything on the boards, so I look for topics that I might be able to answer; therefore don't just put the subject as a phone model number or the name of an application or users might just pass over your post without opening it to read. For example, a title like "Can't get GPS signal in 5800" is much more likely to catch the attention of an experienced GPS user or a 5800 user and get the question answered quicker.
(4) Explain your problem clearlyPhones and the software that we use in them and with them grow ever more complex, just saying "I can't send an SMS" or "Mr camera isn't working" does not give any information with which an experienced user can help you to troubleshoot. Whatever the case, explain exactly what you are trying to achieve, what you tried, and describe what happened, for example: did an application shut itelf down? Did the phone freeze? Was there an error message, and if so what was it? All of this will help other users to identify what is going wrong for you and the less questions they have to ask you back, the quicker they might help you.
Tips for making the right impression:
(5) Use normal textWRITING ENTIRELY IN CAPITALS does not convey a sense of urgency, in internet communities it is perceived as shouting or other generally agressive behaviour, so it will not win the hearts and minds of the people whose help you need. Also, using large characters or bright colours may look nice to you, but too much text written in very large, bold or colourful letters can simply fill the screen unnecessarily and is not always any easier to read, so it can also put people off from helping you. Use these features when you need to highlight a particular point, not all of the time. (6) Resize imagesIf you are embedding a picture in your post, resize it so that it fits into the frame of the normal page. A full screenshot of your PC or a megapixel+ picture will stretch the borders of the page so far that people have to scroll left and right repeatedly to read not only your post, but the entire page of the thread that it is on, and just as above, if you make it difficult for others to read the thread, they could miss some information or just pass over it altogether. If you want to share a large image, you can also add it as an attachment to the post so that people can view it when they choose without impacting on the display of the page for everybody.
(7) Pleeeeaaaaazzzzeeee don't do thisFar from making most users take pity on you and try to help you, this kind of thing can be just as bad as all capitals, especially is you make a word so long that it affects the display of the page like inserting large images does. You are also better off not using SMS shorthand and local slang in your posts, because users of the boards are from all over the world and might be speaking English as a second, third, etc. language, so the person who knows the exact solution to your question might not understand the way you have asked it.

You mention it is a DV/HDV Film - how did you edit it? Did you edit both formats on the same timeline in Final Cut? (What were the settings in Final Cut for the timeline?)
If you are using HDV in a timeline due to the length of time to conform the output, you may be better off exporting the entire thing for testing (small enough for HDV, though I often use AIC or 422 nowadays).
What settings are you using in Compressor? I know you mentioned many combinations, but did you use any frame controls? What was the rate? Did you use CBR/VBR?
One thing to try to get things started. Use 8 CBR and in the frame controls set them to to "Better" for all of them. Will take a bit longer using the filters but should give you an idea where you are at. (Also take a look at the self contained movie to see if there are any artifacts/picels there).
How are you watching the DVD - computer screen or burning to a DVD?

Another User Frustrated and the Disappointed

I am currently a producer for the NBA and a former segment director on ABC's Jimmy Kimmel Live. I started editing on 3/4" U-matic video tape years ago and now work with tapeless acquisition formats such as RED, the Canon MK II, and Sony XDCAM cameras. I do not currently have nor have I EVER had ANY problems adapting to new technologies and new directions in my field of work. The ability to adapt to changes in the industry keeps you competitive and insures you won't be left behind.
That being said, I am extremely worried about Apple and their dedication to its pro users. I have been a loyal Apple user since Mac OS System 6. Sacrificing functionality for simplicity is not always a good thing. Over the past two decades Microsoft Windows has been known solely as a creature of function, and a very frustrating one at that. I fell in love with Apple because they have always strived to achieve perfect harmony in the marriage of form WITH function. Their products were simple and powerful. Final Cut Pro X marks a defined shift in Apple's priorities (though when you look at Apple's history, this has been coming for a while). It is now very clear that Apple wants to be a consumer products company. It's probably a matter of time until the Mac OS and the iOS merge. Mac OS X Lion will be the first step towards that transition.
Fox Sports and the NBA invested in multiple Mac Pros and Final Cut Studio suites powered by Final Cut servers. After Apple discontinued their servers, we all began to worry about Apple's dedication to their professional customers. Final Cut X is another step towards Apple abandoning the very user base that helped keep them alive for 20 years. Fox Sports and the NBA will more than likely cease using Final Cut due to the lack of professional features in Final Cut X and the discontinuation of their media server. This has nothing to do with learning a new, modern system and everything to do with Final Cut X being a subpar product absent of the tools we need to GET THE JOB DONE.
The following timeline was pulled from a post from another user. I share his sentiments:
The real tragedy here is if Apple thinks all the anger over FCP X is just about that particular software, and not the growing fear over the last few years that pro apps and gear are a fading priority for Apple. For instance:
* It took almost 2.5 years to go from Final Cut Studio 2 to Final Cut Studio 3, and Final Cut Studio 3 was just a moderate update. Then it took almost another 2 full years to introduce Final Cut Pro X, which removed important tools and features that post houses require to function in this industry.
* Apple bought Shake, and then cancelled it almost immediately. Apple told us all that there would be a next-generation app coming in Shake's place, but that never showed up.
* Apple started letting Logic atrophy.
* Apple "phoned-in" the last few Mac Pro updates, just slapping in some new Intel chips, but not adding value such as 1) more expansion slots (three slots is not a lot for a workstation), and 2) never bothering to include an eSATA port, even though tons of media professionals started using eSATA, 3) never bothering to include a USB3 port, etc. etc. Many people are wondering if the new Thunderbolt port will be Apple's excuse to give up on the Mac Pro altogether. This is a real possibility.
* Apple stopped updating its "Pro" page almost two years ago, here: [url]http://www.apple.com/pro/[/url]
* Apple stopped attending NAB, and other standard industry events.
* Multiple rumors that Apple was trying to sell its Pro Apps division.
People have spent a lot of time and money building their businesses and careers around FCP. But since the iPhone launched, FCP and other pro apps and gear have gotten noticeably less attention.
That makes a lot of people nervous, and left to wonder what Apple's intentions are. You really can't help but wonder because Apple is so ridiculously silent about its intentions, which works fine on the consumer side but not when people are investing tens of thousands of dollars in apps and gear around Apple.
Combine that with Apple shipping a new version of Final Cut that is so radically different and so underpowered, and also discontinuing sales for FCS 3 suites and FCP Server (with no explanation about Server's demise or any intentions on bringing back multi-user functionality) and you can see how the dam finally burst in the Pro community and the angry flood waters rushed in.
Apple better start communicating better with its pro customers, and re-assuring them that it's committed to professional work in this new era of the iPhone/iPad. Otherwise, a lot of people will be heading for the doors.

Hello Derek,
I'm a Graphic and Web designer, but have on ocassion have had to do some video work for clients, and had a passing interest in what Apple was going to do with FCP. And then the 'Net exploded in Pro Rage.
But this is a kind of disturbingly familiar to me. The Design cimmunity had been feeling marginalized by Apples' full blown pursuit of the consumer market for a while. We've been put in the position of where a Mac Pro is TOO much, and often too costly for a small studio or freelancer, and the iMac is not flexible or expandable enough. Tho' they are now positioning the iMac as the "Mac Pro for the rest of us."
But I frakkin' cringe every timeI I hear the word "magical" come out the mouth of an Apple exec.
In the early 90's Apple virtually INVENTED "Desktop Publishing" with the Mac SE, Pagemaker, Postscript and the LaserWriter which changed literally everything in Publishing and Design... forever. They have since seemed to lose all interest in the industry they essentially created. Apple's attention seems to be fully consumed with the users of iThings, but hey, I work for a living.
a Pro Editor's take on FCP X:
"...these aren’t omissions. They’re mistakes. They’re conscious, deliberate choices Apple made and got wrong. And as long as FCP X shows you all your bins all the time, and as long as FCP X doesn’t have the concept of tracks in the timeline, it’s going to be literally unusable in commercial post." - Jeffery Harrell
http://jefferyharrell.tumblr.com/post/6830049685/what-went-wrong-with-final-cut- pro-x
It's very insightful, specific and worth a read.
Over the years, I have generally preferred the Mac as a platform. It's a more elegant and less maintenance-intensive user experience and (for the most part) gets out of my way and lets me work. With Apple's current relentless pursuit of the "consumer computing" market, they seem to have lost interest in the professional market. But who's creating the apps and content for users to "consume?" The Mac Pro is now the last in the upgrade cycle, and last years update was dissapointing for the lack of Pro level capabilities that were highly desired in the professional community. I recall when Mac towers were first to get the shiny. While they are still certainly heavy metal, and priced to match, they are no longer awesome. They are not the dominant machines the G4 and G5 towers were, and you can now purchase workstation class Xeon machines on the PC side from several makers
I certainly can't do pre-press or serious web design on an iPad, appealing little slab of electric crack it may be.
"Final Cut Pro X review: Apple will happily **** off 5,000 professionals to please 5,000,000 amateurs." - Daniel Jalkut, on Twitter (via Daring Fireball)
Pretty much sums up where Apple's seems to be. It's not the specific problems of FCP X that worries me, it's Apple's ATTITUDE. And illuminates why at times I feel Apple doesn't always have my interests as a Creative Pro at heart. At one time we were Apple's core and most loyal market, but I increasingly feel dismissed by Apple. Apple kicked the Design community to the curb years ago. And they antagonize Adobe at our professional peril. I literally live and die by Adobe's Design apps, without them I am literally irrelevant in the publishing world.
But Apple is so frustratingly close mouthed about EVERYTHNG, that it's particularly hellish to try to plan for one's professional needs.
I feel your pain.

Opening the Canvas window and the Timeline from the browser

I am on an Intel 2x2.66 Dual Core using OS 10.4.11 and working in FCP 6.04.
I know this is a stupid question but having been a composer all my life, I am not up to speed on FCP and I seem to be unable to find the answer in my manual.
I dragged a QuickTime movie to the browser window. It is 500x375 in dimension and uses a H.264, AAC codecs. (info I got from the Get Info window).
The video shows up and plays in the Viewer window but I cannot get the Canvas window nor the Timeline to open.
I have tried selecting the sequence from the list in the browser and then control clicking it and looking at the shortcut menu there. The manual says I should choose Open Timeline from this shortcut menu but that is not even a choice I have. I don't mean it is grayed out, I mean there is no Open Timeline choice on the menu.
As an alternate, the manual suggests selecting the sequence and then choosing View > Sequence in Editor. I tried this also. There is no Sequence in Editor choice under the View menu. There is a Clip in Editor choice but when I select that it simply opens the movie in Quicktime.
I am aware that I am probably forgetting something simple or doing something stupid but I cannot figure it out. Help would be much appreciated.
Thomas

the simple fact that is being eluded to here is that without an active sequence in the project (shown in the browser) there is no canvas or timeline. If you delete your sequence from the browser, the timeline and canvas will disappear, and you will have to create a new sequence, then open that sequence by double clicking it, to get those windows back. Canvas and Timeline display sequence content. No sequence, no c/t.
