Has anyone ever convinced somebody to buy a Zen Micro over an iPod Mi

I'm just curious to see your responses, personally, I convinced many people that the Zen Micro was superior in terms of features, function, and battery, and yet, after telling them that the Micro was better, they still said "Eh....but I still like the iPod better".....and then i ask "why, it's better in terms of function and features", and the respond "iPods look really cool, and i like that spinning wheel thing" :angry:

Have you looked at the belkin case? It is nice and works for the Touch 20gb and 40gb.
I showed one of my ipod using friends my touch, and convinced them that they should have gotten a touch (hopefully they will get a touch once their ipod breaks (the ipod is 5 months old, should break any day now )) And I convinced one of my other friends that the micro is better, but even though they belei've the micro is better, they bought a ipod mini because "it looks cooler and everyone else has one" Grrrrr, why would you want the same mp3 player as every other person at our school :C

  • Has anyone ever been quoted more than $500 to replace a failed logic board?

    Has anyone ever been quoted more than $500 to replace a failed logic board? A Genius buddy of mine swears that it'll never be over $500 but I' convinced he's high out of his mind.

    I doubt it. They don't even take the same kind of RAM.
    What makes you think a replacement "will most likely go bad in the future"? Some have had to go back more than once; many haven't. (And many have not gone in at all.) There are many iBook users out there, happily iBooking away without any knowledge of the iBook Logic Board Repair Extension Program because they've never had a problem.
    Get it replaced, free, NOW, and worry about the future when it gets here.

  • Has anyone ever lost a ringtone that they purchased and downloaded? I have; completely gone. And when I searched and attempted to download it again I got the message "you've already purchased this; do you want to purchase it again?"

    Has anyone ever lost a ringtone that they purchased and downloaded a ringtone and then it just completely disappeared? When I tried to download it again I got the message "You've already purchased this item; are you sure you want to buy it again?"

    You are aware that there the app may have downloaded and been placed on the second screen.  Not the main one.  Can you swipe to the right to see if it is there?

  • Has anyone ever SUCCESSFULLY gotten iTunes to back up library to disc?

    I've tried numerous times over different versions of iTunes, and I can NEVER get iTunes to back up my purchased library to disc.
    It offers to do it to DVD, to regular CD--- and nothing works. It spits the tray out, says to put in a blank CD and I do-- and it "checks Media" and never accomplishes anything. I'm starting to doubt the function even works and was put in there to make it look good.
    Has anyone ever successfully gotten the "Back Up Library to Disc" function to work?
    im running the latest version of iTunes.

    GOOD POINT. You cannot backup to an external hd. Who wants to use dvds OR cds for backup anyway? The whole reason for buying an ipod was to avoid these two optical disc nightmares and get with a hard disk management solution. itunes doesn't recognize external hard drives for backup. Ridiculous. Try using an ext hd as the itunes location for your music if you really want to see problems develop. Managing music instead of playing music has become my past time since I got into the ipod/ itunes mess. All I do is try to clean up it's messes. The software developers need to be accountable. Class action? No support, except forum, unless you want to pay.

    Hi pholewinski!
    I have a couple of articles for you here that I believe will help you with this issue. The first is an article on advanced troubleshooting, and it can be found here:
    iTunes: Advanced iTunes Store troubleshooting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3297
    If following that article's steps doesn't take care of the issue, you can try the things listed in this article, which is about permissions issues in iTunes:

  • Has anyone ever seen this error

    We just launched a vaccation tracking app with a coldfusion
    front end and an access 97 backend (dont ask). The app was tested
    for over a month and passed all tests. However we never tested for
    volume, or amount of users hitting the app. On the backend, we have
    an access table linked to a text file. Again, this tested out
    perfectly over the past month. This morning after release to the
    entire company of about 2,000 people, users began reporting this
    error:
    The text file specification 'EmployeeList Link
    Specification6' does not exist. You cannot import, export, or link
    using the specification.
    Some users logged in to the app successfully and some
    recieved this error. For those that recieved the error, we had them
    back out and re-login and then the app worked just fine.
    Has anyone ever seen this or have a guess as to what is going
    on?

    Hi,
    The right way would be to use a "real" database server.
    But you can test if db-caching can improve the issue.
    With each <cfquery> you can set a cachedwithin
    parameter. Using that should allow you to query the Access db once,
    and then have CF keep the query results in memory (for the DB as
    well as the text-file).
    You could query the complete database with no filtering this
    way, and then filter the data using QueryofQuery to output only
    records for specific users/groups/regions.
    You also need to make sure the settings in CF admin are
    configured right for this.
    The more often the database content is updated, the slower
    this solution will get though.
    cheers,
    fober
    ps. for the cachedwithin parameter in the query set a
    timeframe of forever, so the recordset never gets updated, and then
    actually execute a new query to update the recordset at the end of
    your "save a vacation" or "updated a vacation" functions. This way
    the app would only read the db when a real change to the records
    occurred.
    But like I said with 2000 users, even that may not be enough
    to get the app performing.

  • Has anyone ever ran Logic using VMWare Workstation on a Windows PC?

    Has anyone ever emulated Mac OS X and used Logic on their x86 Microsoft Windows systems? I was thinking about doing this to use some synths and stuff with some Windows designed software. I'm not sure if it is possible to use both operating systems at the same time with VMWare Workstation operating system emulator. Help me out guys. Has anyone ever done it? Can it be done?

    VMWare Workstation will not run the client version of Mac OS X in emulation, and likely won't run Mac OS X Server either.

  • Has anyone ever succeeded to use the scope_identity() from the LabVIEW DB toolkit ?

    Hi,
    Using LabVIEW 2014 DS, and MSSQL 2008R2.
    I have configured a table with identity, so the indexed will be incremented automatically.
    I am trying to get the ID of the last Insert command that I am using.
    I am trying to SELECT SCOPE_IDENTITY() but with no success.
    I read about trying to so it with a procedure or transaction, but I just could not succeed myself.
    Has anyone ever succeeded to use the scope_identity() from the LabVIEW DB toolkit ?
    If yes, can you please elaborate more or even share the code ?
    Thanks, 
    Amitai.

    Yes I have...let me dig out some code...
    I do my INSERT query (with a semicolon at the end) and in the same query string do a "SELECT SCOPE_IDENTITY() as inserted_id;" - essentially what you're doing here is running two queries in one - one to insert your data and the second to retrieve the ID. From what I remember of when I did this (last year?), I think scope_identity() is valid for the same connection so as you're doing both queries in the same connection it should always be valid.
    I then do this to get the ID (pardon the crappy VI snippet):
    Essentially I execute the query and the result is a 2D array that contains one row/column which is your last inserted ID.
