Good luck with this one folks..

Just came back from vacation and dowloaded my photos to Iphoto in Guest status. ( I did not realize I was logged into guest until much too late) I logged off and the photos are gone. I let the laptop wipe my SD Card as well. Tried to recover from the SD Card..Apple does a good job of deleting items....Ouch. Two weeks and 1000 photos gone like that. Any ideas? My stupidity definately, however I think the engineers should have built some redundancies in to alert you when you are dealing with this much data. Why it even alows me to sync my I pad to a guest profile is beyond me....I think I have the perfect storm here....So it goes.
Any last ditch efforts will be taken..ideas?

A quick google search turns up many "recovery services". I've not used any of these but here's one:

Good luck solving this one... (installation problem)

Alright, so I must have created some kind of administrator password a long time ago, and can't remember what it is. This means I can't install any new programs...which isn't good.
It tells you to insert the OSX dvd (I'm running 10.2), and you can reinstall. The problem is I don't have that disc anymore. I have a 10.4 disc, and also my original G4 dvd, but that's it.
Any ideas on how to reinstall the OS or reset the password??

Did you boot from the Mac OS X 10.4 DVD? When you boot from the Mac OS disk, you shouldn't have a dock at all.
Hold down the letter 'c' when you tell your computer to restart, which will tell your computer to use the CD-ROM drive to startup (in this case, the DVD-ROM).
If you do that correctly, then you'll be in the Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger installation process. Follow the previous poster's instructions and go to the Utility menu and choose the option to reset your password.

RAM: Has anyone else had good luck with Corsair?

First of all, thanks Bas and Scottg26 for pointing out the correct version of Memtest86+.
I know that Corsair has a crappy rep around this forum when it comes to the Athlon 64. However, I've had nothing but good luck so far (knock on wood). I've been up and running for almost a month now with no BSODs and the computer has booted every time so far. I'm using Corsair TwinX 1024 LL in slots 1 and 2 with the speed settings on Auto in the BIOS with a voltage of 2.6. I've run Prime95 for up to 10 hours or so with no errors and I just ran one pass of Memtest86+ v1.00 with no errors. It took 18:50 and showed the following settings:
Memory: 1024M 1447MB/S
Settings: RAM: 200Mhz(DDR 400) / CAS:2-3-2-6 / Single Channel (64 Bits)
However, I will point out that the only real world test it's really passed so far is playing Call of Duty.
Here's a link to the actual RAM on NewEgg: http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDesc.asp?description=20-145-435&catalog=147&manufactory=BROWSE&depa=1
Is anyone else happy with their Corsair RAM so far or did I just get extremely lucky?

Yeah They are neat at that. Question is how well do they overclock?
I'm getting a 28Mhz fsb overclock out of these dimms that I have and They are used I admit, But like the seller said they are great overclockers!

"File ... already exists, but it is inconsistent with this one." error

I've previously used ALPC to profile a Zuiko 12-60 on a E520 and I had no trouble at all. I had 33 different sets of 9 pictures each, and they all merged nicely into one consistent profile. The profile worked perfectly and corrected lens distortion better than any other software I've used. Now I'm trying to profile my Nikkor 10-24 on a Nikon D7000, but as soon as I try to append the 2nd set to the 1st one (same focal length and focus distance, different aperture), I get this message: "File <filename> already exists, but it is inconsistent with this one. Please select a different location or use a different file name.".
My brother has been having this same issue and he's also using a Nikon D7000, but with a Sigma 17-70 2.8-4.0. Any ideas why this is happening? Some sort of D7000 raw conversion issue, maybe? I used ACR to convert NEF to DNG. The first profile is created and works well, though apparently not very accurate.
I tested the one profile that is saved, at 10mm and f/3.5, and it's not very good. Distortion is clearly over-corrected. The one difference between the profile I did for the Olympus and this one is that I refocused after every shot for this one (since the wide angle really throws corner focus off when you reframe it). Could this be it? If not, what else?
I'm using an A4 13x21 chart. It's enough to fill the frame with 9 shots at minimum focus distance.

I am having the same problem with my d7000. This happens regardless of software used to convert NEF files, so if I had to guess at why this is happening I would say that the d7000 maybe has a different format for its makernotes, which is where the lens information is stored, and the lens profile creator doesn't read it.
Here's what happened when I tried to profile my 50mm f1.8 nikkor: I took 9 pictures at f1.8 and nine at f2.8. The profiling worked fine on both. So I ran it first on the f1.8 set, and saved it. Did the same for the f2.8 set and tried to save it, but it wouldn't allow me to append the file to the existing one, giving me the "inconsistent" error discussed here. I then save the second profile separately.
I opened both on windows notepad, and this is the lensID inconsistency already discussed here:
The profile I did with the f1.8 set had this line in it:
<stCamera:LensID>76</stCamera:LensID>
And the profile I did with the f2.8 set had this line:
<stCamera:LensID>179</stCamera:LensID>

Hi..I have an AirPort Extreme base connected to my DSL Modem and has been working fine. But I recently bought another DSL modem along with the latest Airport Express. With this one however I can't get it to connect to the Internet. Any suggestions?

Hi..I have an AirPort Extreme base connected to my DSL Modem and has been working fine. But I recently bought another DSL modem along with the latest Airport Express. With this one however I can't get it to connect to the Internet. The light on the Express is flashing green though. Does it mean I have to re-set the settings on Airport Utility? I.e. the old settings haven't been cleared yet. Any suggestions?

Let's see if I can get this straight.
You have an Airport Extreme base station that is set to "Create a wireless network" and you have the box checked for "allow this network to be extended"....
Then you have an Airport Express that is set to "Extend a wireless network" which you selected the name of your network in the box...
Correct?
See this Apple document:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4259?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
The wireless unit on the right of the diagram can be either of the newer Apple base stations.
Extreme, Express, Time Capsule

AV works for me, except with this ONE friend... same thing for him.

I can AV chat with everyone on my buddy list (I use AIM on a Macbook Pro), but when I try to AV chat with this one friend (who has the exact same laptop as I do), it fails to connect. He can also AV chat with everyone else on his buddy list... I've searched the net and found other people with this same problem but no solutions yet. Any ideas?
Thanks.

It may be the way the individual Modems or routers that are involved do NAT.
NAT (Network Address Translation) is a global term for various ways of achien=ving the same thing.
Some devices don't "Play Nicely" together.
One option is to use UPnP if the devices have it to open the ports

I have problem with my iphone 4s my battery is not keeping charge. how can I get help with this one. it is less than a year that I purchased this cell.

I have problem with my iphone 4s my battery is not keeping charge. how can I get help with this one? it is less than a year that I purchased this cell.

I would like to know the answer to that one. I realized this was happening just after upgradeing my iOS to 6. Then when I looked up my purchase date, I was about 5 days past my one year warranty. So I'm dead in the water. Apple will replace the battery, but it will be about $80+. I took it to the Apple store, and they checked a bunch of stuff, but said that it seemed ok. I'm debating getting a battery for a more reasonable price off of ebay. But if it's the iOS thats draining the battery, then I'm not going to be able to help it. I wish I knew a better way to tell if its the battery, the phone, or the iOS.

Why do I get the answer on trying to open the application skygo, limit reached, want to use skygo on this device visit manage devices to replace a registered device with this one. How do I do that. ?

Please see http://help.sky.com/tv/sky-go/register-devices-on-sky-go . Note that if you have in the past already removed one device you will have to wait for a month to elapse before you can remove another.

Not again...help with this one....

Good luck with the forum + ePub feature request

Good idea about the new forum! I'm sure it will thrive.
EPub creation in InDesign has advanced by leaps and bounds. Last week I created a fairly heavily illustrated fiction ePub out of InDesign in "one sitting", and -- amazingly -- without having to touch the resulting ePub in an external editor! (This was a book that I had typeset for print in InDesign as well, so of course that makes it easier.) Just a little custom CSS, and some custom paragraph styles and object export settings. I think that's great, and thanks to Douglas Waterfall who is clearly doing an amazing job, plus is very attentive to listening to users' requests and ideas.
Avoiding the use of an external editor is in my opinion very desirable, and currently, InDesign's Achilles heel when it comes to that is the navigation pane. The navigation pane is constructed according to a TOC that the user has created in InDesign, but not everything can be created with an InDesign TOC.
On the most basic level, chapters in the actual ePub might be formatted as so:
CHAPTER 1
Trains
CHAPTER 2
Planes
CHAPTER 3
Automobiles
... but in the nav. pane, one would prefer:
1. Trains
2. Planes
3. Automobiles
As far as I'm aware, the only way to achieve that currently is by opening up the ePub after export with an external editor and editing the nav pane manually.
So if InDesign could offer some way to have more flexibility with that, and avoid the need to edit externally, that would be great.
Ariel
PS And of course, some sort of live preview when editing for ePubs in InDesign is also crucial.
PPS I still can't help wondering if a separate Adobe ePub editor wouldn't be better than foisting it all on InDesign. Obviously, this ePub editor should be able to open InDesign files.

You have a wonderful positive attitude, Pierre, but two things:
1. They shouldn't be a work in progress - they should be polished and complete. As it is it gives people the impression that the company's products are unpolished and lacking in function.
2. We may have a say, through threads like this one, but it rarely seems to make any difference. Again that seems to reflect Adobe's overall current philosophy for product development and release... Consider the fact that they virtually always plan to release what they already have built - even though people may feed back many problem reports during beta testing. It happened with the Photoshop CS6 beta, it happens with the Camera Raw betas, and we have this forum software that, despite being released in an unfinished state, isn't being actively modified per anyone's requests.
There's only one good reason for exposing unfinished software - to solicit feedback to help find what's unfinished and prioritize what needs to be done to finish it.
It's not working, Adobe.
Hello? Is this thing on?

I'm totally lost with this one........

i is an int with the value 778899
return new Color((i >> 16) & 0xFF, (i >> 8) & 0xFF, i & 0xFF);
When I run this through a debugger and step into this line, the 3 parameters in the constructor of the Color object contains the values 11, 226 and 147.
I don't understand what the code above is actually doing hence the reason why I don't understand how the color object gets these values.
Can someone explain this one. I've had a look about but no luck so far.

A color is expressed by a 24bit RGB value, which describes the Red, Green and Blue component. Each component is 1 byte (8 bit) large. So you can express a color as an hexidecimal number in the form 0xRRGGBB.
Take your decimal number 778899. In hexadecimal, this is 0x0BE293. So, I'll do it step by step
1) extract Red component: 0x0BE293 >> 16 = 0x00000B & 0xFF = 0x0B = 11 decimal
2) extract Green component: 0x0BE293 >> 8 = 0x000BE2 & 0xFF = 0xE2 = 226 decimal
3) extract Blue component: 0x0BE293 & 0xFF = 0x93 = 147 decimal
These are the three values that are passed to the Color constructor.
Hope it helps,

Has anyone else honestly had GOOD luck with the Kin TwoM?

I recently purchased a Refurb Kin TwoM off ebay...I havent yet activated it but I did want to pass this along to others (as I was curious about) that I WAS able to take my old Samsung Intensity to a VZW Store and they transferred all my contacts within about 5 minutes! I wanted to make sure that would work first before anything! Also, I tested out the wifi @ home and Mcdonalds and it connected just fine!..its like a Wifi-Enable Mp3 player right now and it only cost me $40, so hopefully once i fully activate it the actual PHONE will work! There are a few quirks Ive noticed like others have pointed out..such as the screen lock doesnt actually lock the volume controls on the side....and the browser is awesome for a basic phone but isnt quite as smooth or 'fluid' for webpages like our Ipod Touch is...(but you really shouldnt compare it to any smart' devices that like) Im not sure if its true for all Kin's but I havent been able to play videos offline like Youtube? anyone else have this issue? I also wish with there were some simple Apps like FB / Twitter/ Maps available but I suppose I cant expect too much!

I know I'm tempting fate by posting this, but yes, I've been quite happy with my KIN TWOm.
I got mine originally in June, 2011. A couple of weeks later, it dropped from the holster on a dirt path and must have hit a pebble or something, because a small section of the screen stopped working. VZW sent me a "Certified" replacement (cost me $99 because of the apparent physical damage), and it has been performing fine for the past 13 months.
Sure, there are some software quirks (It's Microsoft, remember?) but the benefits clearly outweigh those. Probably the thing I miss most is the lack of any voice recording/command function. But I love that it has WiFi, and the nice camera and 8GB memory let me take over 400 pictures when my normal camera was stolen on the second day of a trip to Europe. The Zune music player is nice as well, and the e-mail client, while limited in function, is much nicer than the one on my previous phone.
As for the actual phone functions, I text more than I talk, and the physical keyboard is very nice for that. As for voice calls, I do that pretty seldom, but have not had any problem with dropped calls, volume, etc.
OK, the big elephant in the room is the "black screen" that seems to affect so many people. It's happened to me a few times as well. I think my background as a computer guy has helped me deal with this. When this has happened to me, it's always been when the device was "sleeping", and just didn't want to wake up. Like maybe it wasn't recognizing the interrupt from the "back" button. In those cases, I've found that holding the button down a little longer, opening the keyboard, or briefly pressing the power button will get its attention. Or sometimes I just need to let the device rest for a minute or two and it manages to untie itself. There have just been a very few times when I've had to do a cold boot (remove/replace the battery).
You also need to be careful as to how you put the device in your pocket or belt holster. Make sure that you don't position it in a way that the power button can be accidentally pressed when you sit down. There have been a few times when I take the phone out of my pocket and the little power off confirmation box is displayed. If that happens, be careful not to touch "OK" -- unless you want to power off.
Anyway, maybe mine is living on borrowed time, but overall I've been very happy with it so far.
I know there are others who have not had such a good experience, but this thread asked for people who were happy with their KINs, and I am.

Does anybody know how to get help with this one?

Hello there!
I wanted to get an advice on how to get in touch with the appropriate person at BT that could help with my situation.
I have tried telephone help, complaints by email and unfortunately still waiting for somebody from the customer services to help me out.
I have recently moved home. I contacted BT on 26th June to organise the line transfer to the new address. The date was set for 18th July. I also ordered line rental saver and paid for it over the phone. All went smooth, telephone and broadband was working fine at the new place, but on the 23rd July I was sent an email that "BT is sorry that I am leaving".
I thought it was a mistake, but the lady in the on-line chat said somebody stopped my service. Later she rang and left a message saying that I must have requested to move to another provider. Did not manage to speak to her again, but phoned the help line this time.
There a gentleman was trying to convince me that I called BT and cancelled my service on the 18th July and to him I was not a BT customer anymore. The truth is that I did not request to stop my service, anyway - why would I do that after paying for a year in advance. This has no logic, but because computer says so then he thinks I did it.
He also added that my account is a 'mess'. He then promised that somebody would get in touch to sort it out as my line rental was gone and my phone and internet could go off any minute.
I did not get any help. After that I wrote to them 3 email complaints to request assistance. They called and aknowledge they will help, but 3 weeks down the line nothing was done to explain the situation. Left the messages to the person from email complaints to ring me or email me -never happened.
Last week I got 2 emails welcoming me to BT and outlining the call plans that were diferent from each other and the one I agreed to on the 25th June. When I called help line 2 days ago a lady confirmed on which one I am on, but could not sort out the most annoying thing - the 'final' bill.
I was sent a bill for over 200 pounds due to premature termination of phone and broadband service , which I never ordered. They already took the money this week. My line saver is gone as well. So I am 360 pounds short. I aslo have no access to myBT to monitor my phone activity or make orders.They also did not send any confrimation of the call plan I am currently on.
It is a very annoying situation, because somebody at BT made an error and I am unable to get to anybody that could help. Everytime you call the help line you speak to somebody else and despite me thinking the email complaints would be the way forward they are not. Would appreciate some advice on how to tackle these issues: false accusations from them, inappropriate billing, problem with myBT.
Thanks Lukasz

Could i get some help with this one

the aim of this project is to make a n by n maze and traverse this. if, while traversing the maze the system realises that there is a dead end it turns back. My problem is that sometimes it turns back and sometimes it doesnt. Here, below is the method for traversing the maze. Could i get a second pair of eyes to help me out a bit with this code?
     * Prints out the current maze
    public void show()
         for (int i=0;i<array.length;i++)
            for (int j=0; j<array.length;j++)
System.out.print(array[i][j]) ;
System.out.println();
* traverses through the maze
* @param row: the current row
* @param column: the current column
public void traverse(int row, int column)
if ((row==3)&&(column==column-1))//checks if the array has reached the end
System.out.println("array is solved");
}else
if(array[row-1][column]=='.')//checks if should move up
array[row][column]='x';//marks path
array[row-1][column]='x';//marks path
System.out.println();
show();
traverse(row-1,column);
}else
if (array[row+1][column]=='.')//checks if should move down
array[row][column]='x';//marks path
array[row+1][column]='x';//marks path
System.out.println();
show();
traverse(row+1,column);
}else
if(array[row][column+1]=='.')//checks if should move left
array[row][column]='x'; //marks path
array[row][column+1]='x';//marks path
System.out.println();
show();
traverse(row,column+1);
}else
if ((row!=3)&&(column!=0))
if(array[row][column-1]=='.')//checks if should move right
array[row][column]='x'; //marks path
array[row][column-1]='x';//marks path
System.out.println();
show();

//checks if up is clear to move back
//checks if down is clear so could move back
//checks if right is clear to move back

System.out.println("MAze cannot be solved");
}else

System.out.println("MAze cannot be solved");
}else if (array[row-1][column]=='x')//checks if behind as been marked
array[row][column]='*';//marks as dead end
array[row-1][column]='.';
System.out.println();
show();
traverse(row-1,column);
}else/*3*/ if((array[row+1][column]=='#')||(array[row+1][column]=='*')&&(array[row][column-1]=='#')||(array[row][column-1]=='*')&&(array[row][column+1]=='#')||(array[row][column+1]=='*'))

That is truely one of the better threads that I've seen on the net for maze traversal.Forget "for maze traversal". That was one of the most interesting of all the threads I've seen here in quite a while. My sincerest admiration to those who contributed and eventually worked it out (and it wasn't me that's for sure), and especially to Keith. Impressive!

Need good suggestions on this one - anyone?

I am designing a database in Oracle 10g Express Edition - Database looks fine and I am in the final phase.
I am twisting my head over (have been looking at websites to see how they do things in general and am not yet convinced) how to create the process booking request on my site when it comes to how a customer will be registered.
I am creating booking requests on 6 categories: hotels, vacation rentals, camping, home exchange, tours and flights (only business charter flights).
I have started with making the Customer table where customer is identified with a number and same Customer ID can be used in all booking requests for that particular customer. Now... it is unpopular to have to log in to be able to book things, maybe it is something that is supposed to be or maybe not. So I am thinking and twisting again, my head i.e., how to do this? What would be the ideal process of creating a booking and what would be an ideal identificator on customer? In this world of spam I do not want to use customers e-mails for mailing news etc., so that is said.
Should I let the customer write his/her info again and again in every new request or should I keep some sort of register on them?
Anyone who has been around with this dilemma?
Suggestions?
Smart ideas highly appreciated :)
Anyone? ? - Obviously I am not the most experienced one - therefore need the forums even more.. I would appreciate a discussion on this one - since I am sweating over studying Oracle process ;)

Hrefna,
We had the same problem when we created www.teetimes.com which is a golf course teetime website for hundreds of golf courses. What we ended up doing is what most web sites do, let the user create a user id and password pair. We also asked them to pick out two challenge question and give us the answers which we stored and used to validate a request for a forgotten password. You have to make sure there are no duplicate user/password pairs by the way. This allows you to give the user a 'global' identity which we used to let them play on any of the courses we served. You might also want to filter for bad words and sql injection.
Hope this helps
Bob R

Good luck with this one folks..
