Give me an iBreak already!!!!!

I few points I would like to make in response to the iPhone 4.
1. I am experiencing reception problems with the iPhone 4 i never experienced with my iPhone 3g.
2. The 'death grip' is fact not fiction.
3. I paid a lot of hard earned money for the iPhone 4, it should work as it was intended without the addition of a BUMPER.
4. Apple SHOULD replace the phone, not offer a plastic band aid that I do not want.
5. Apple isn't receiving a lot of complaints about reception problems because the iPhone is still in demand.
6. Steve Jobs, You can't be the media darling and not expect to receive criticism from the media when your wonder product begins to fail. I work in the media, guess what, my iPhone is failing. We are reporting the facts, not trying to tear you down.
7. If the media criticism is just hype, then why are you spending millions of dollars of your own money to offer a fix? You wouldn't do it unless it was legit.
8. Yes, I am using my first 30 days to try your bumper fix and OS fix, but I am going to cross the street to check out the Droid. I want to see what it does and compare it to what yours doesn't.

I have read over each of these points carefully and without bias. My official suggestion to you is if you are not happy with a product you purchased with your own hard earned money, return said product. Use your beloved 3g again and save yourself (and everyone else on this forum) from overblown issues and complaints.
No one is forcing you to keep the iPhone 4. Get back that hard earned money of yours with Apple's offered full refund. I (and most likely many other people on this forum) have no sympathy for people who complain about a product that they do not like, when they have the option to get all of their money back and forget this all ever happened.

  • HT3275 Why would Backup suddenly stop and give me sparse bundle already in use error message?

    The error message I keep getting is:  The backup disk image “/Volumes/Data/Brenda Glim’s MacBook Pro.sparsebundle” is already in use.  Help!

    Because you are running ML and that is one of its bugs.
    Even Lion can do it.
    Wireless makes it worse.
    Reboot the TC.. or reboot the network and it should go away.

  • ITunes will not let me authorize to play music. Claims I already authorized 5 computers. I have not (to my knowledge). Bug? My computer crached last year and a new HD was installed. Computer is Mac from 06 with Mac OS X10.5.8

    Have a Mac Power Book  bought 2005 when living in the US. Installed iTunes and set up an account. Have since dowloaded music, videos etc worth $1000s to my computer.... Last year 2012 my HD crashed and I had a new installed with operating system OS X 10.5.8. Can't upgrade to later systems. Before the crash I had long  since moved out of the US and forgotten my old user ID and password for iTunes as I hardly ever purchased any music or used the program. Luckily I had my library saved on external HD and on my iPod. I just bought an iPod Nano this Xmas and when I was going to download music to it I realized I had problems. iTunes claims being the latest version (10.6.5) but the Ipod Nano want 10.7 to be able to work with iTunes. I then started to try to access my music and  iTunes that I had not been using since the crash. It was an upgraded version and had new unfamiliar functions. I tried, to the best of my ability, to set up the account but to my frustration I can no longer access the $1000s worth of purchased music and music videos. ITunes just give me " I have already authorized this computer Including this one, you have authorized one computer out of your available 5". I only have this computer with iTunes! Is it a bug and how can I access my music?? I undestand I most likely will have to purchase a brand new computer to be able to use my iPod Nano I allways loved Mac and it's programs for its simplicity as I am no computer vizard but I am now desperate and at my wits end HELP!!

    In iTunes, do Store->View my AppleID
    Click "Deuthorize ALL"
    Then, on any computers you still have, do Store->Authorize this computer.  If there are less than 5, you will have no problem.
    You can only do "deauthorize all" once a year, so in the future, if you ever throw a computer away, remember do to "Store->Deauthorize this computer" first.

  • Document already exist error for our user screen

    Hi All,
               In SAP 2007 PL 13,after Removing record by right click remove ,I am not able to add the document. It gives error "Document no already exist". After diagnosis Of ONNM and NNM1 table ,I got that next no does not increases in NNM1and ONNM Table.
    but this problem came after upgrading from 2005 to 2007.
    it happens for some times.
    I could not find any reason because I had generated Document no by sap object.
    Is it any patch required,I had already run PL 09,10,13
    please help me
    thanks in advance.

    Hi Atun,
    This issue comes if the connectivity is poor.
    Standard procedure.
    Step 1
    open SAP Business one
    check the last added record.
    Note down the number.
    Step 2
    Open SQL server
    open the table ONNM
    Check for the specific number of the object(your user documents)
    Note down the number.
    The number in this table should be (last addded record in SAP business one + 1)
    Generally this error comes when the ONNM table number and SAP business one last added record number is equal.

  • Atttempting to install KB2553407 on Sharepoint 2010 server, getting 'already installed'

    I am basing this on information that I was given.
    Sharepoint Server product version:  14.0.7015.1000
    Sharepoint Server 2010
    Windows 2008 R2
    Based on a vulnerabiity scan of the server, i am being told to install this patch. A colleague followed the instructions in Microsoft Security Bulletin MS13-024.
    Attempting to install this gives an error message 'already installed'.
    Has another patch superceded this?  Based on the product version, I believe we are on Sharepiont Server 2010 SP2.  The documentation in the article refers to SP1.  This patch is from March of 2013, and we have patched the server since then.

    The scanning software may be dumb, specifically it may be checking the registry for that particular patch to be installed (since it would be bundled with SP2, MS13-024 should not show up as "installed" on the system).

  • Satellite C670-11Q - "e give " keyboard issue

    Hello everybody,
    I have a problem on a Toshiba Satellite C670-11Q with windows Seven
    When I pouch on :
    e gives "
    t gives (
    u gives
    i gives !
    o gives
    And If i use SHIFT :
    e gives 3
    t gives 5
    u gives 7
    i gives 8
    o gives 9
    I uncheck already the Filter keys and the problem persist. It's strange beacause it's the same with Ubuntu (also installed on this laptop).
    All work as well with an usb keyboard.
    The problem comes since the cat sleep on the keyboard :)
    Do you have an idea ?
    Sorry for my bad english
    Thanks a lot
    Have a nice evening
    Jluc

    > All work as well with an USB keyboard.
    For me it sounds like the keyboard would be faulty.
    The point is that if the USB keyboard is OK then the issue cannot be related to the software settings.
    So it has to be hardware fault.
    Get in contact with an Toshiba ASP in your country and ask for a keyboard check and replacement

  • Bug in Tabular form Not Exist Validation, fails when creating multiple rows

    Hi,
    I have a Not Exist validation created for a Tabular form:
       select 1 from my_table where col1 = :col1 and col2 = :col2Execution State: For created and Modified Rows
    which is working fine when a row already there in DB
    and I am trying to enter a new row with same data.
    but when there's no data and I enter two rows with same data, validation does not fire, first row should allowed to enter
    but for second row it should give error that data already exists, which is not happening.
    for example,
    let's say I have a row in DB with: 1, 2, 3
    when I try to add a new row with same data ie. 1, 2, 3 validation fires and showing error, which is fine.
    but let's say there's no data in DB and I am entering two rows with:
    1, 2, 3
    1, 2, 3
    validation is not working this time, it is allowing to enter both the rows.
    do I need to create a manual validation for this or what?

    Hello Tauceef,
    >> Now I got it, I was under impression that it will validate one by one row before insertion,
    >> but it's going to check all the rows first, then do the insertion.
    Just to clear things up, the APEX engine works exactly as you describe, but this is your problem.
    The APEX engine do check\validate all the rows first, one row at a time, and only if all the rows pass validation, the DML processes kick in. The DML processes work on the entire Tabular Form record set (per page view, of course).
    In order for your type of validation to work (the one that queries the database), as you want it, the validation and DML actions have to run together, row by row. This is not how things work, because it’s less efficient/optimal, and may lead to a situation where a certain row can fail validation, but other row(s) already been inserted/updated/deleted into/from the database. This could be a very tricky situation.
    Vikram has suggested to rely on a database constraint, and control the APEX error message. This is possible, although I’m not sure that in this case, the Tabular Form will retain all the user changes, in case of validation error. You should check it.
    Another option, which Marc hinted on, is to manipulate the G_Fxx arrays. In your case, you should loop through the new rows, compute their MD5, and make sure that all the rows have different MD5 values. This is on top of the current validation, which makes sure that the new rows do not already exist in the database.
    Regards,
    Arie.

  • ITunes purchases appear on some devices, not all...

    I bought a movie in iTunes yesterday (Prometheus) using my Apple ID on my MacBook.  This is the first movie I've purchased in iTunes so this all may be user error, so please bear with me.
    On my iPhone I see the movie in iTunes under ... More > Purchased > Movies.  However, on my iMac using same Apple ID it does not appear in my Library. In iTunes on the iMac under the menu Store > Check for Available Downloads I get the message "All purchases have been downloaded for this account." 
    I've tried signing out and back in, I've rebooted the iMac and the Macbook (just in case), deauthorized and reauthorized my two Mac's, still no luck.
    Reading over some of the comments in this forum I've attempted to 'repurchase' the movie and here are the two prompts I get;
    "Are you sure you want to buy and download 'Prometheus'?  Your credit card will be charged for this purchase and your purchase will begin to download immediately."
    Clicking Buy give me;
    "You have already purchased this item.  Would you like to buy it again?  If you buy it again, you may have duplicate items.  If you can't find it in your iTunes library, make sure it's been downloaded by selecting Check for Available Downloads from the Store menu."
    As mentioned, I've already gone down that road several times now.  I'm hesitant to Buy it, and then be charged for the same movie twice.

  • Brain pick on an old problem of mine (squealing and poping sound when system is under heavy loa

    Firstly, my apologies if this post gets double posted as I am on a barely functional dsl connection?<SPAN> It get?s flaky when it rains which is only periodically for about 2 months of the year?
    I was wondering if someone in the know might be able to clue me in as to any fixes for this VERY old issue of mine.
    I have already searched a bit and all I found was the squeal and crash issue, mine is similar but not identical.
    History:
    I have been a creative card user since the first SoundBlaster came out (and jammed it into a 286 system). Well I think it was the first since I was new to computers then?
    Anyway I have had an SB, SB6, SB6AWE, SB Li've, and now SB li've Audigy 2 ZS. Pretty sure I had an audigy pro card (a family member was upgrading so I grabbed theirs for cheap).
    Since around the audigy series of cards I have been working on friends and family member?s (and their friends/family) on the side.<SPAN> Though these days I am not a happy camper.
    Problem:
    I am having this problem that I have now learned to li've with where when I am playing sounds (game or music) and the system gets under some type of heavy load I get LOUD squealing and popping sounds (mostly the squealing kind). The sound can be in excess of my volume settings and I tend to wear headphones (I can't believe I wasn?t deafened the first few times and occasionally recently when I forget, actually I have been having trouble understanding people lately, need to get my ears checked I guess).
    Heavy load defined:-On occasion copying files from one dri've to another (usually large files in this case).
    -Always when copying files over a network to or from my system.
    -in few cases of a network heavy or hard dri've heavy application (lan games anyone?) ? Mostly when I am hosting.
    NOTE: for the most part the card works fine in games as I usually don?t do something else while playing a game, usually.
    For how long?:
    This is hard for me to place.<SPAN> I remember wanting to upgrade to 2k when it came out but I heard from friends that had tried to upgrade that the drivers for the sb6 awe or any other creative card were garbage so I delayed upgrading to win2k till I got my first + ghz system and didn?t have much choice. I have been dealing with this since (also at the time I had an audigy or perhaps just a li've, hard to place).
    Steps to solve this (not resolved yet):
    I have tried several different configurations, this problem has been present on both an amd and 2 (or more) different intel chi
    ps.
    The problem has not been present on non-creative products under 2k (yes I had a card made by the company that creative bought out a while back), driver updates have done nothing or made it worse (though recent drivers seem to be a little better).
    A while back (on the amd machine) I tried dealing with creative via e-mail and got canned responses of things I had already tried (and had noted in my request for help that I had already tried them) even as far as completely clean installs and as I mentioned different systems.
    I am now using completely different hardware besides the sound card.<SPAN> Swapping out for other soundcards doesn?t help if they are creative cards (I even went as far as trading someone else identical cards to no avail).
    I have even tried windows xp to see if that would help, nope.
    The only solution to this so far has been not to use the card and for a while now I have been suggesting to friends and family to just use the internal on mobo sound instead of an add on creative card.
    I have even had someone else build me a system (as apposed to my building it) just in case I was doing something weird, no help.
    That and just not listening to anything when I am about to put my computer under a heavy load (and making sure to disconnect the phones just in case since sometimes it happens without sound playing, RARELY).
    Current system specs:intel p4 2.66 ghz
    Audigy 2 zs (platinum if memory serves, pretty sure here)
    Geforce 6800gt
    gig of ram
    (I would have to hunt around for other details like mobo)
    I have to say all this effort to get one companies hardware to work just sucks and what sucks more is I have no choice on the market, there is only one noteworthy sound card company when it comes to gaming, on the plus side there isn?t much for me to look forward to in gaming these days? I don?t like MMOs (if I can't play in on a lan and just the people on the lan I don?t care for the game much). Halflife (the reason I bought the geforce 6800 gt card) renders the world in such a way as to make me motion sick (just like all the quake games) so that was a waste of money?
    The reason that there isn?t much to look forward to in gaming is because I can just disable my creative card and enable my onboard mobo sound and actually hear sound while doing stuff as apposed to garbled deafening screeching sounds that I do now when I forget to stop sound before doing something hard on the system?
    Personally this is a last cry for help before I completely give up, I am already a very disenchanted customer hoping there might be some way that I can just listen to music or play games without much worry about sound (the squeals can be heard from across the room from the headsets set at a normal volume so you can imagine what that?s like when they are on my head). I have already, for the last couple of years, been steering people away from creative products in general touting their core product a failure and the people that didn?t believe I just let them sit and listen to some music and then copy a file?
    Sound and music are almost more important to me than graphics btw, I have returned games for poor (in my opinion) quality sound tracks (mostly EA products) and have bought games that had good sound/music but poor graphics, heck I still play some old dos games (loom anyone).
    Sorry the end there got a little ranty, so anyone have suggestions to the problem section?
    One last thing: This took me a while to find and is a bonus to anyone that read all that? For some relati'vely cheap 5. headphones (all I had looked at were over $00) check out the zalman headphones. I have had mine for well over a year now and they still sound just as good as when I got them (even after the ear shattering squeals) and only cost me $50)<SPAN> They are sturdy too (more than I expected), I tend to break headphones within 5 months even some nice $50 stereo ones and these things are still intact.<SPAN> By break I mean break a wire, blow a speaker (squeals) (not literally exploded), snap the headpiece?<SPAN> I can't seem to see a direct link to the speakers so google zalman and headphones?

    I don't know if anyone is following this or cares much but I thought I would add some info for those that like me before signing up, simply searched and found some useful tidbits. I also didn't see an option to edit my previous post as most boards I post on have that option to give you an alternati've to double posting...
    My system was gigabit however I only had cat5 cable with a megabit switch. Now the switch is gigabit with a cat5e cable and a short distance from me to the hub (same system otherwise). The gigabit is onboard.
    I figured I would see a bit speed boost with the new network and indeed in games I did see an improvement on large data transmitting games (American Conquest 4x4 maps in multiplayer LAN) however I expected file transfers between me and other gigabit on mobo cat5e systems would be significantly better. Instead I saw speeds only slightly better than before, around to 2 megabytes per second (using a measurement tool Netstat li've from AnalogueX) and that annoying screeching. At those speeds that might explain why the game was still on the jerky side (a full blown 4x4 map the way we play stresses all computer components but network seemed to be the bottleneck).
    My solution to getting fast file transfers? Disabling my sound card by going to device manager right clicking on the Creative SB Audigy 2 ZS item and choosing disable. With an acti've file transfer (large single file rather than small files) I saw about -2 megabytes per second. Within moments of disabling the soundcard I suddenly had about 20 megabytes per second and the estimated time went from 0 minutes to almost finished...
    I have to say on an aside that this just adds to my disappointment with this card (and the fact that I have seen similar poor performance in other peoples cards set up by me or not). This continues to cast a light of doubt for me and future creative products. I have to say though that the X-Fi (after fully updating drivers) seems like it *MIGHT* be worth a try? I certainly won?t drop any money into a new creative card (or recommend creative computer equipment) until I see some good proof that problems such as those that plagued this and other creative cards are gone.
    Now remembering several posts I read here (and why I am even posting this), I tried disabling some of the features of my nice Creative card (through the various consoles for example the EAX console). Indeed I did see a performance boost (more on that later) as well as death to the squeals (though oddly I did hear that odd electrical interference noise that is supposed to be why onboard audio sucks) and my ears thanked me for that. As for performance my transfer rates went from -2 megabytes per second to a whopping 4-8 megabytes per second (mostly 5). I am definitely leaving those special features disabled for bandwidth intensi've games, after all they are mostly meant for movie and music enhancement (though they make some games sound nice too). I should note that the squeals, though not deafening, are present with other separations in playback, during file transfers. This isn?t much of an issue for me since win2k (and XP) lets me disable and enable my sound card at will without reboots (most of the time) and it has become habit to work around my sound card in this way already.
    I know that there is a limited bandwidth on the system bus between all devices however I just have to wonder why my SB Audigy card is using up so much bandwidth when not doing jack... That and I thought that limit was much higher than 20 or so megabytes per second which has me wonder just how much this sound card is wasting (and possibly stressing) in my system when not doing anything. My guess though is the sound card is merely interfering with PCI traffic and not acti'vely using it (though I am not aware of tools to check this). This might explain why I have gotten less than stellar performance out of other hardware though I have yet to try pushing my system with the sound card off yet?
    While I still can't recommend creative sound cards to customers at least I can't say that Creative doesn't make anything worth buying anymore (and I used to be a huge creative advocate). The new Zen mini player got pretty good praise (search maximum PC for the review).
    Assuming this thread stays open I will add more of my hopefully useful experience with this sound card. If on the other hand it'ss closed up (since there were a few unkind comments) I should have to assume that Creative has completely turned it'ss back on me as well as my current and future customers (unless some other reason for closing is given of course). As it is now I see signs of improvement in the companies? products (which pleases me to no end) though not yet enough to justify my spending or recommendations, besides the portable device, though I have no interest in devices that don?t allow for flash memory expansion I have been asked about them on occasion.

  • Adobe Reader 9.0 has delay when downloading PDF file through proxy server

    There is an issue with the Adobe Reader (and Acrobat) 9.0 PDF Link Helper ActiveX control for Internet Explorer (6 or 7) on Windows computers with respect to proxy servers. Due to this issue, there is a 2 minute delay for any Internet Explorer web browser on the Deere network before any PDF file will open from the Internet within the IE web browser if In-Place activation (Display PDF in Browser) is enabled in Adobe Reader 9. This problem does not affect Adobe Reader 8.
    What we are seeing is that when someone on the Deere network clicks on a links to a PDF file in the Internet, the PDF file downloads immediately. But then, after the PDF file is downloaded, the Adobe Reader 9 PDF Link Helper ActiveX control tries to talk directly to the Internet web site. The Adobe Reader 9 PDF Link Helper ActiveX control does not know how to negotiate our proxy server. So after a minute or two, the Adobe Reader 9 PDF Link Helper ActiveX control times out (gives up) and allows the IE browser to display the downloaded PDF file in the IE browser.
    We work around this issue by disabling In Place Activation for PDF files in IE (uncheck Display PDF in Browser). But we would like a fix for the PDF Link Helper ActiveX control.
    [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Adobe\Acrobat Reader\9.0\Originals]
    "bBrowserIntegration"=dword:00000000
    [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Adobe\Adobe Acrobat\9.0\Originals]
    "bBrowserIntegration"=dword:00000000
    Here's what our proxy people see when they do a trace of a PDF file download through their proxy server with IE 7 and Adobe Reader 9 with Display PDF in Browser checked.
    The browser tells the proxy to download the pdf, it does and sends it to the browser. Before the browser opens it something in Acrobat ( or I.E. ? ) tries to make a connection back to the content server that hosted the pdf. Unfortunately this agent does not ask the proxy to make the request for it, but rather asks local DNS to resolve the Internet server name. This request dies because our internal private network does not know anything about the Internet. Only the DNS used by the proxy can resolve Interent names. After two unsuccessful DNS queries into the private network, the agent tries to resolve the same Internet name with NBNS ( netbios name service) queries again into the private network, with the same results. These requests persists for more than two minutes ( over 200 unresolved queries ). Then for whatever reason the agent gives up and the already downloaded pdf file loads into the browser.
    I have a TCP capture file if you want it.

    Hi,
    I have the same problem with some specific PDF files. For more than 90% it hangs when opening the file, but sometimes it works (with the same file).
    The workflows where it sometimes worked:
    a) Loading the PDF, the reader is started the first time and displays license dialog.
    b) The reader was already runing and file is loaded with Drag&Drop or File/Open in the Reader
    But most times it does not load.
    I could not find out which file is missing or trying to be opened. So I tried with the CP949.TXT.
    I found no CP949.TXT in Reader 8 installation, so I took it from the link, pasted into notepad and stored in the respective directory
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Reader 9.0\Resource\TypeSupport\Unicode\Mappings\win\
    Now it seems to work fine, opening PDFs with double click from exporer.
    But why did Adobe Reader 8 not have the TypeSupport directory at all?
    Even when having found a fix (hack?), I think I did not understand the cause of this problem.
