Has anyone here gotten any notification from VZW that tiered data plans are coming on July 7?

I have heard on the internet, as well as my TV local newscast, but not once have I gotten an email, text, phone call or postcard in the mail that there will be tiered data plans beginning 7/7/11. I am not one to complain about vzw, but I have to say something here; this is to say the least pi** poor customer service. Here we are t minus 6 days and counting, and I haven't heard one peep from VZW. I hate to think that they are trying to catch people off guard with tiered data, but their silence just reinforces that fact.

That actually makes a lot of sense!

JSR 94 Compliant Search Engines: Has anyone here used any?

Folks,
We're currently migrating a 3270 application to a servlet/jsp application. As part of this migration we're
getting rid of our mainframe rules engine (largely because of horrendous licensing I understand).
I've done some research and found out about JSR 94 (the proposed standard API for Rules Engines).
Is anyone here currently using or in the process of implementing a JSR 94 compliant rules engine?
Did you decide against JSR 94?
Any input is appreciated.
BTW - Here's the link for those who haven't seen JSR 94.
http://www.jcp.org/en/jsr/detail?id=094

There are a number of complient rules engines. however it would seem that the APi development has
not quite finished yet (although I doubt there will be any further changes).
Part of the Reference Implementation is a wrapper that uses the Jess rules engine
http://herzberg.ca.sandia.gov/jess/
Another free engine that claims support for JSR94 is drules
http://drools.org/
Please note that I have not used either of these implementations.

Has anyone here gotten an email that contains the following? I got it (I don't think is legit) that's why I'm asking in here, thanks for any response I get.

THis is the complete email I got:

It's a phishing attempt to get your account and payment info, Apple send emails like that (accounts aren't 'suspended', the English in it is poor, it's not a personalised email, and the links don't take you to an Apple site). You could forward the email to Apple : [email protected]

Anyone else gotten a request from this person?

Has anyone else gotten a request from xxxxxxxxxxxxx
My gut tells me its a BS account, and I'm going with it, but just curious if anyone else knows.

Hi, Sherkauf,
NO! Deleting the contact only removes the contact from your contact list. You must Block them to prohibit the contact from ever being able to reach you again. After Blocking, the contact will appear on your contact list with a red circle that has a line through it; you may delete the contact from your contact list at that time; the blocked contact remains behind-the-scenes on your Blocked contact list.
More information including screen shots is here in this FAQ article:

Has anyone here tried BSD?

Hi there,
We all know that Archlinux is BSD-like.However,has anyone here really experienced BSD,like FreeBSD,OpenBSD,NetBSD......What about that?:D

I'm using FreeBSD on my desktop that I'm typing from right now, Arch is on the laptop.
About a year ago, I started to get really frustrated with Linux distros -- thanks to Linux itself. You upgrade the kernel and stuff breaks. Kernel devs implement shiny new stuff instead of making sure that it at least works. I thought that using some less bleeding-edge distro than Arch would make things better, but I can't stand Debian, Gentoo is broken, Ubuntu and Fedora are too overcomplicated for me. So I switched to Windows. I was happy for some time, but my fingers are too used to the shell, and stuff like Cygwin just doesn't cut it. Then I found FreeBSD and been using it ever since.
The system itself is very simple and clean. Documentation is excellent so there's no smashing your head against the keyboard involved. All you really get is a basic Unix system: you have a shell, an editor (vi, ed), a compiler and the base necessary tools. You then build the rest yourself.
Third-party software management is a bit different from Linux distros. Linux distros are almost all about package management. Some distros also provide shiny stuff and patches everywhere, but we're on Arch forums and we know well Arch doesn't do that: Arch merely packages stuff and makes sure the packages work well together. Arch devs don't develop the kernel, they just package it. They don't develop base system utilities, they just package them. FreeBSD, on the other hand, is the kernel and the base tools. It does provide rather simple tools for package management (pkg_add, pkg_delete), and you can optionally install the Ports Tree, which is just a system of makefiles that take care of fetching, configuring and building software for you. Or you can install stuff yourself, though that's not recommended. FreeBSD isn't about the software that you install or how you install it, it's about providing you with the base platform on which the software can run.
That said, I find the Ports Tree very mature and easy to use. You can install third party scripts that will help you with software management, like portupgrade or portmaster (the latter being my favourite). But the system itself is very simple and thus easy to understand -- there's no magic involved.
(Some posters before me have mentioned packages being outdated. You probably were running a -RELEASE version, which is all fine and great, but it also means that the packages that are fetched by default are the packages that were available and built when -RELEASE was released. You can define the environment variable PACKAGESITE to point pkg_add to newer packages. It's all explained in the handbook -- especially the grey note may be of interest to you.)
During my day-to-day desktop usage, I don't see any difference from my previous Arch desktop. I have Xfce running, with Opera, Pidgin, Transmission, ePDFReader, and a bunch of terminals. I don't like shiny stuff, I didn't have it on Arch, I don't have it here. If you want, though, you can have it, there's no difference -- GUI software doesn't usually suffer any portability problems between Linux and FreeBSD. If I sat you at my desktop, I think you wouldn't even tell this is not a Linux distro, until you typed "uname -a" into the terminal.
HAL may be even more pain on FreeBSD than it is on Linux, but I hate HAL, I hated it when I was using Arch, I had it disabled back then, I have it disabled now. I have seen people reporting they got it to work successfully on FreeBSD, though. So if you like things like automounting, I believe you can have them. But I'm not of the sort of people who like auto- stuff, myself.
All in all, if you like barebones simplicity and like learning new things (it's different from Linux!), I don't see why you couldn't just give it a try. You can install it into VirtualBox, if you don't feel like messing up your primary PC and get some feel for what the system is and is not about.

Has anyone actually gotten the 2.2 Software Upgrade to work?

I know there are numerous threads about the 2.2 Software Upgrade and how it's not working.
Has anyone actually gotten it to work??
If you have, please reply with what you did to make it work, how long it took you, etc..
Thanks in advance!

Thank you, Thank you Henry1---I hit update, unplugged my iPod-touch,and whala!! the update downloaded to my itunes account. I did have to pay when I had first bought it thru itunes- I tried updating, and syncing several times in the past week or two without success. While my ipod was unplugged I also reset my network settings on the ipod under the settings, general, reset menus before I plugged it back in. When I plugged it back in I had to hit update again to download it to the ipod and then sync to get any applications/games to go on to the ipod. Thanks again Henry1--we were racking our brains trying to figure out if we had the "right network settings" on the computer and/or the computer.

Has anyone had deleted photo's from months ago reappear? I have a 3gs running iOS 4.3.2

Justin,
Ok, if that's the way it works that's the way it works. Atleast until you suggest a feature change and it gets reprogrammed. And an option (other than the SHOW DATE/SHOW TIME) is not necessary, just the time showing WHEN the channel info disappears.
I have also seen and heard what looks like RF interference. A small amount of line noise (a couple partial lines only) and crackling that does not happen all the time. Is it possible that some device or appliance in my house or the houses on either side of my home can cause RF interference with the FIOS equipment??
As for the issue with the guide, IMHO that sux! Basically you are telling me I am forced to pay an extra $8/month just to have the channel guide? Even with basic Cable (Time Warner) a guide was available! How about a guide channel like TWC

Justin wrote:
1) That is the way it works. There is no option to change this, other than the option to display either the channel number or the time. Actually the time is displayed once the channel is changed when the time in the STB reaches the next minute, so the delay can be very short or up to one minute.
2) Most of the time I do not see the flash or hear the pop. But occasionally I do, on any channel change, SD or HD. I have never been able to figure out what causes it to start doing that, or what causes it to stop. It starts, does it for a while, and then I realize it is no longer doing it.
3) No Guide on the DCT-700. Plus no VOD, widgets, or HD. If you want the Guide, you have to get one of the 6xxx or 7xxx STBs.

Has anyone resolved the whirring sound from the Macbook late 2008 Optical Drive Self-diagnostic yet?

Has anyone resolved the whirring sound from the Macbook late 2008 Optical Drive Self-diagnostic yet?

Reinstall OS X without erasing the drive
Do the following:
1. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
If the hard drive does not appear in the DU sidebar list then it has died and will have to be replaced. No need to proceed beyond this point.
2. Reinstall Snow Leopard
If the drive is OK then quit DU and return to the installer. Proceed with reinstalling OS X. Note that the Snow Leopard installer will not erase your drive or disturb your files. After installing a fresh copy of OS X the installer will move your Home folder, third-party applications, support items, and network preferences into the newly installed system.
Download and install the Combo Updater for the version you prefer from support.apple.com/downloads/.

Same here. Seems to download great, but upload is a problem. Searched for some type of file size / type restriction, but the help pages do not seem to be in place yet.

Has anyone ever had an email from Apple asking them to update their details for their Apple account on IPad? Kinda worried as it asks for my bank details and bank account number and security code on the back of the card. Thanks :)

Has anyone ever had an email from Apple on IPad asking them to update their account details? The email seems genuine enough as it asks you to sign in with your Apple ID and password and takes you through to the Apple site but am a bit worried as they ask you in the section Update Your Apple account for bank and credit card details and for the security number on the back of the card. Also in the section where it asks for my mobile number it will only take 10 numbers and when ai try to put in the final (11th number) it won't let me. Sorry am new to all this and a bit confused! Any help is gratefully appreciated.....Thanks.

That is phishing attack

Has anyone used SuperDuper to go from C2D to SR?

Has anyone here upgraded to the new santa rosa MBP from the C2D MBP and used SuperDuper to clone their system? I need to do just that and was wondering if the computer will boot and be fully functioning. I think this is the easiest way to transfer everything since I won't have my C2D MBP when I receive my SR MBP.
If this is not possible because of hardware issues, will the clone of my current system mount as an external fw drive on the SR? This way I guess I could manually copy my files over to SR.
Thanks

I would not advise doing this unless the build number on the SR machine is exactly the same as the one on the C2D. With most all new hardware releases the OS X build is usually unique for that hardware until the next general version of OS X is released. Therefore, cloning from the C2D very likely won't work.
To check the build versions select About This Mac from the Finder's Apple menu. Click on the OS X version number (10.4.9, for example) to reveal the current build version. If the build version of the SR installed OS X is not the same as that of the C2D then do not clone either operating system to either machine.
Instead use Migration Assistant.

Has anyone removed the screen protector from Otterbox?

I have the Otterbox on top of Apple's anti-glare screen protector as suggested in this forum. I'm having way too much trouble getting a response out of buttons on the edge of the screen or in the corners. I touch and touch, even press hard but no response. Even getting the phone to snap a picture is near impossible. I have no problems when I remove the Otterbox case, so I know it isn't a screen issue. I love the feel and protection afforded by the Otterbox case and would like to use it. Has anyone removed the screen protector from their case, and if you have, can you comment on the subsequent performance of it? Of note, I use the Otterbox case because I have young kids who use the phone - we don't have a landline. In other words, it's not dust protection I'm looking for, but impact protection. I hate to tear up a $50 case if it won't function anymore.

I removed the screen protector that was part of the Otterbox case and it now works much better. Still have the Power Support anti-glare screen protector on it. Also removed the small cover over the camera lense and now my pictures are more clear. Finally, I removed the covers over the speakers and I can hear the speakerphone again. These mods made the case an A+ for me. A little less protection but much better functionality.

Old school, has anyone here been able to install and run Logic Pro 9.1 on a dual 1.8 G5 PPC? I know LP9 is not officialy supported on non Intel CPUs, But 9.0.0 and 9. 02 are ok on the G5 PPC as it is universal Binary, while I hear 9.1 wont work

ok thanks, that's what I tought,looks like apple machines are only good for two - three years, the software developers are ahead of the hardware to a certain point, love macs but this is forcing us to buy new macs just to keep up with development. There was a time it was the opposite.
By the time we get up on new stuff it's time to change again. Gotta be rich to deal with macs ...LOL
