General question regarding Nike+Ipod

I just received my first Ipod and it is a new 5th generation ipod nano.
Not knowing anything about an Ipod, realized there is a pedometer feature which seems pretty cool and did more reading and if you have this Nike+ program, you can track your workouts, and the main reason for getting the Ipod is to have something to listen to for my workouts.
I will never get a nike shoe to use this with, so my question: Is it worth getting if I can't put the device inside my shoe or are there other programs that work similar that you can download and purchase for the Ipod??
Thanks!

If I'm not mistaken, I think the pedometer works with out the nike+ sensor. Just make sure that you calibrated first. Hope this helps.

General question regarding "parallelism" of iPhone execution

I've got a general question and hope somebody can shed some light on this.
While I'm relatively new to iPhone development I've been in software programing for more than 15 years now and have a solid background in Java, C, C++, C# and other languages. I've created a couple of applications for the iPhone, easy and complex ones, some using UIKit, others using Open GL and Open AL. With that said I think it would be fair to say that I know pretty much what I'm talking about.
For those who tend to refer everybody back to the Apple Samples or PDF guides, please believe me, I've read them all.
Here's my "question":
I occasionally ran into a situation where I got the impression that code on the iPhone got executed in a "non sequential" or "parallel" manner even when I did not explicitly created threads. I'm not referring to code buried in a framework or so, I'm talking about code I've written. (English is not my mother tongue, so please excuse me if my explanation might be somewhat difficult to understand.)
I try to give an example. Assume a code snippet like this:
_gameEngine = [GameEngine alloc];
[_gameEngine initSomeStuff];
In my understanding the second statement (the initSomeStuff) gets executed once alloc returns and _gameEngine for sure is a valid pointer. Is that fair to say? I sometimes got the impression that the iPhone starts executing code without waiting that a method returned.
I had similar issues when I tried to show an ActivityIndicator while another method was doing a lengthy operation. Pseudocode like this:
[_activityIndicator show];
[self longLastingOperation];
[_activityIndicator hide];
In code like the one above: Can I be 100% sure, that the hide message is not sent until longLastingOperation returns? I ran into a situation where I had the impression that show and hide got called immediately without waiting until longLastingOperation returned.
Final example:
[self performSelectorOnMainThread:@selector(doSomething) withObject:nil waitUntilDone:YES];
[self nextStatement];
-(void)doSomething {
[self longLastingOperation];
1.) In the above code, I understand the idea is that doSomething will be executed on the MainThread and that nextStatement will in no way be executed before doSomething has returned. Is that true?
2.) doSomething is supposed to run on the MainThread but does this hold true for longLastingOperation, too? Or could it be that longLastingOperation WITHIN doSomething gets dispatched to another thread and doSomething returns PRIOR to longLastingOperation been finished?
This might all sound pretty wired but as I said from time to time I ran into a situation where I got totally confused as to how stuff executes in – or out of – sequence. I helped myself with using NSNotificationCenters etc. but I'd like to understand what's going on in detail and crystal clear here.
Your help is more than appreciated.
Thanks,
R.

It is never safe to assume that any allocation was successful, and while it's incredibly unlikely that you're running into any such situation, it's entirely possible for a formal protocol to declare that a given message send should return immediately without waiting around:

An "impression" doesn't prove much unfortunately, so I'd recommend getting friendly with the debugger to see what's really going on.

General question regarding environment files in APPL_TOP

Hi. I will be passing my OCP (hopefully) next month and I am now turning my head to teh Applications side since my job involves a lot of Oracle Financials.
I just did a clean installation of 11.5.10.2 but at the level of seeting environment files, my boss swooped in and did them all. I would love to know which ones need changing, or even which ones do what ...
I am using the Oracle doc Re: Generate the Database Context File
to follow with, but what I see before me in our own (9i, AIX 5.2) set up doesnt always mirror what the doc says.
I need some general information about these env. files. In our <ORA>APPL directory we have the following env. files:
APPSORA.env
DEV.env
DEV_davidcl.env
APPSDEV_davidcl.env
DAVIDCUST.env (I have changed our firm's name to David)
In the doc, it explains that there is a "main applications env file", and a consolidated applications file". <CONTEXT_NAME>.env and APPS<CONTEXT_NAME>.env respectively. Which ones are those in my directory listing?
I have also checked in the .profile of the appcldev and the appdbdev users, and they both point to the same two environment files -
$APPL_TOP/DAVIDCUST.env
and
$APPL_TOP/APPSORA.env
Sorry this is a bit scrambled message - is there any other source out there to explain environment files?
Thanks
DA

Thanks - they are the same! That's why the DEV_davidcl.env has all the parameters that according to the doc APPDDEV_davidcl.env should have.
Thanks - very helpful. The DBA here never has any time to explain this stuff, since I think he's been doing it for so long that he doenst understand why anyone would not know it too. Its very hard working for him sometimes since nothing is explained.
All of my questions are stemming from this clean installation of 11.5.2 that I have done.
I am still wondering about the .profiles of each user we have on the system though. I understand that we had to copy the profiles from TEST to this, our DEV side, then we edited the profiles to match the DEV parameters. Fine.....but the actual .env files themselves - I am looking at them and dont understand at all.
Each .profile and each user are as follows:
appdbdev:
appdbdev@TEST:more .profile
APPL_TOP=/oradbi3/oracle/testappl;export APPL_TOP
. $APPL_TOP/DAVIDCUST.env
. $APPL_TOP/APPSORA.env
appcldev:
appcldev@TEST:more .profile
APPL_TOP=/oracli3/oracle/devappl;export APPL_TOP
. $APPL_TOP/DAVIDCUST.env
. $APPL_TOP/APPSORA.env
So these two, both on the cl node, appear to be pointing to same env files.
Then comes the db node:
oradbdev:
oradbdev@TEST:more .profile
. /oradbi3/oracle/devdb/9.2.0/DEV_daviddb.env
. /oradbi3/oracle/devappl/DAVIDCUST.env
I think I can understand the .env that are pointed to on the cl node, but I dont understand the oradbdev .profile, since its pointing to oradbi3/oracledevdb for one env file, then oradbi3/oracle/devappl for another.
I asked our DBA about this, and he said "dont worry about it". I have to try and run the script to start the application server this morning, but every time I try to su to the db node user I get this:
doralcl:/> su - appdbdev
.profile[2]: /oradbi3/oracle/devappl/DAVIDCUST.env: not found.
Like I mentioned, I pinted this out to our DBA and he told me not to worry.

I have a question regarding the iPod Touch and iPhone batteries.

Hello,
I started asking myself questions lately about my iPod Touch 5th generation battery. A few months ago, when a friend of mine asked me to plug her iPhone 5S in the wall (the battery depleted), I noticed that her phone was at 1% of battery power. Then I compared my iPod Touch battery with her phone's battery, and discovered that my iPod Touch stops working when the battery is close to 10% battery power. This is concerning to me because I feel like I only have about 85-90% of battery power available when I use my iPod Touch, while my friend has over 99% of battery available. It's a huge gap, I can't use this 10% that I wish i had. I'm wondering why iPods can't stop functioning when the battery is close to 1% instead of 10%? Can you imagine not being able to use 10% of your battery! And it was like this since iOS 6.1.3. My iPod Touch would shut down automatically when the battery would be depleted, but in reality, it still had 10, maybe 15% left. Why is that?
Thank you.

Hey Lil'fighter, First, stop comparing an iPod with an iPhone. They may look a like on the outside, share the same iOS, and some of the components, but that is as far as it goes! The biggest reason your friends iPhone out last the iPod is a bigger battery, greater capacity. Secondly, the phone is configured a bit differently and uses power a little more effectively. Third, it is impossible to completely drain the battery in either device. A safety circuit prevents you from doing that. With Li-ion batteries if you completely drain one, it will de-ionize and become useless; never charge again. I suspect the threshold is set higher for an iPod then on an iPhone. But if you feel your iPod is not performing as it should, and a reset or restore does not improve function, then by all means take it to Apple and have it evaluated. Hope this helps. Cheers.

General Questions about the iPod Touch

Hello,
I'm considering buying a new iPod touch after the Keynote Yesterday. I have a few questions though that I'm on the fence about:
1. Does the iPod Touch Mail Client Sync with the OSX Mail Client. Does it sync in Tiger? Does it sync in Leopard? Or does it only sync via .Mac
2. Does the Calendar Program allow you to create new events on the calendar like an iPhone, or can you only view existing events like on the iPod. What about the Address Book?
3. When the Wifi is not connected can you view your email messages?
4. When the SDK kit is released in February, will I be able to purchase developer's apps for the iPod Touch, or will they be exclusive to the iPhone?
Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks!

1. The mail client works with POP or IMAP, it does not "sync" with the OSX Mail app that I am aware of however if you are using OSX Mail to access a POP or IMAP account they can be configured to work together.
2. You can add events to the calendar as well as contacts to the address book directly
3. You can view emails w/o WiFi if you have configured Mail to do so
4. I don't have an official answer for this one, but I would assume the answer is yes.
Hope that helps, all of this information is avaliable on the iPod Touch product pages.

General questions regarding capturing electronic signatures

Hi Guys,
Have some questions....
Are electronic signatures supported in BPM and if yes any idea what types of signature? what standards are used, whether they are legally accepted and whether this is part of the package or a separate application.
can the processes support multiple signatures at multiple stages, signifying different levels of approval?
Could you provide some idea on how electronic signatures are recorded and retained and how the process or document remains fixed once signed?
Thanks in advace.

this is more application related. nothing to do with BPM.

Questions regarding itunes/ipod + found potential bug (itunes 7 + 5G ipod)

I'd love to be proven wrong here.. but...
Okay I've got an iPod 60GB video model (5G) and using itunes 7.0.2 on the imac and powerbook...
now... my main storage point for music is the imac (so I automatically sync the ipod to itunes on the imac) and I like to take the ipod and powerbook with me to friend's places or what not.
I found it stupid to have two identical libraries on two of my computers, so I got rid of my music collection on the powerbook (as all of it is on the imac). Now.. the dillema here, or dillemas I should add...
a) before I used to use automatic sync, I ticked "manual manage music and videos" and thought life was peachy.. until I was at a friend's place, with my laptop, and wanted him to have a listen to a couple of tracks from the ipod, so I plugged it in, fired up itunes and it worked... however!
(BUG RANT) The view mode settings keep reverting back to it's default when ever I plug the ipod back in again! as in "Show Browse" or cmd-B, which I want kept there when I listen to music, having to press cmd-B every time I want to scroll through my list is very f**ng annoying.
Also having to change it to manual management of music every time. ***? (END BUG RANT)
b) So I decided to try the automatic synchronising method, but when it is in automatically sync, I can't browse my music on my powerbook's itunes, and it keeps asking me to synchronise with the itunes library on the powerbook, which is blank!
Can't there either be a 3rd party app which is like itunes in the sense you can browse/listen to the music on the ipod, or a simple method of management/maintenance when plugging in ipods to other computers without it synchronising with their libraries (for listening purposes only of course)
So.. folks... Apple tech support gurus... WHAT ARE MY OPTIONS!??!?!?!?? :\

You are on the right track!
+--the entire iTunes folder found in My Music+
This contains the itunes library database files (iTunes Library.itl which has metadata on ratings, play counts) and all the itunes library content files (Artist/Album, movies, etc.)
The lyrics are inside each songs' file.
The Artwork should also be in this folder.
+-User Name\Application Data\Apple Computer+
+-User Name\Local Settings\Apple Computer+
These include the backups you need for the ipod and apps data.
You don't need to deauthorize if you are simply reinstalling itunes. You only need to deauthorize if you are reinstalling Windows itself.
+--Can I copy the iTunes folder from the external HDD and paste it back into the same location after I recover my laptop+
Yes
+if the version of iTunes is slightly different (I have 10.1.0.54)?+
If the new version is at least 10.1.0.54
It won't work to go backwards to an older version such as v9.0

General question regarding problems

Is it possible that most of the problems that people are having with the 5th is going to be eventually corrected with updated software?

Many of the problems people are having can be divided into these areas:
1. Poor Manual that ships with the IPOD. Most don't read the IPOD 101 before getting frustrated.
2. Computer and Operating system is a mess before they load ITunes and connect IPOD.
3. Bad manufactuered IPODs that have problems.
4. Folks load corrupted files from P2P networks that further hang problems during transfer and play.
5. Video files that are converted wrong that cause stuttering and audio/video snyc issues.
6. Improperly disconnecting IPODs from Windows based PCs that cause the IPOD to lock up frequently.
I could go on and on.
Firmware could improve some things and maybe smooth a few areas out, but the majority of problems can be directly traced to the above.

General question regarding NWDI!

Hi experts,
I'm using NWDI since two months as a developer and as a post-installer.
According to your experiences, I would like to know when should we have to use NWDI ? With how many developers ? In which condition do we need NWDI ?
Thanks for your answers.
Regards

Hello Berthe,
You would use NWDI if you have the following conditions.
1. You need to customize some sap delivered functions like ESS/MSS. NWDI becomes your build and transport environment in this case.
2. The number of developers can range from 2 to n.
3. You need to be able to have versioning and release cycles of the product you are developing
Hope that helps

General question regarding System.out.println

Just for my knowledge fellas,
When you have a few System.out.println's in your code, what happens to the lines written to standard out when you run your application from the executable jar file? I know if you run your app in cmd prompt, then the lines are outputted to the cmd screen, and in Netbeans, in the output section...but where do those lines go when you run the app as an executeable? Are they still written, but there's nothing to show the written lines?
Thanks.
...DJVege...

Just for my knowledge fellas,
When you have a few System.out.println's in your
code, what happens to the lines written to standard
out when you run your application from the executable
jar file?They get written to standard out, usually the console... doesn't matter at all if it's a JAR or not.
I know if you run your app in cmd prompt,
then the lines are outputted to the cmd screen, and
in Netbeans, in the output section...but where do
those lines go when you run the app as an
executeable?cmd screen. Or Java console if you run javaw.

General Questions regarding Unity 7.x Architecture

I am a seeking high-level information about how a decision to prevent a Unity 7.x system from delivering WAV files to users' OSTs/main Exchange email mailboxes would impact hardware requirements and server administration burdens if a company is using Exchange Server 2007.
I would appreciate any suggestions on where to find prior discussions that address this issue, or other online resources.
Thanks in advance for any assistance that you can offer, and my apologies in advance for lack of more technical language in this post.

You can install Exchange on any of them, obviusly the recommendation is the secondary.

SAP GRC Process Control - General Questions

Hi all,
We have the following general questions regarding SAP GRC Process Control:
1) Assume that we have set up 5 different SAP Connectors in Process Control. When you configured a specific rule and control and then, schedule the job for such control, how does the system (SAP Process Control) knows which back-end system needs to be accesed for such control?
2) In which language are the out-of-the box rule steps's script coded? In which different languages can those scripts be coded, what is to say, in which language can we code our own scripts?
3) How is the detailed flow between SAP Process Control and SAP Back-end system?
Many thanks. Regards,
