Has anyone used one of these powermats to charge their iPhone(s)?

I've been thinking of maybe getting one of these powermats (see link) and I'm wondering if the IP will charge from one of these mats just by laying on it? The description talks about some "tip" and I'm also wondering if an IP would have be actually be plugged into one of these mats in order to charge? At $90+, it's not a cheap way to go, but I like the idea of just laying my IP or Nano down on it and having the unit charged when I'm out-the-door again. Sounds too good to be true, but I do like techie gadgets .

  • Has anyone used one of these with success.

    I have my eye on a Adaptec fireconnect afw-1430 but I have a 333 Lombard and the system requirements say a 400 or later. I know from some programs that say similar claims usualy work with less but I would hate to order this and it not even install because it see's I have a 333 and not a 400 ( have had that happen also ) .

    freefour,
    FireWire PC cards work just fine in any powerbook that natively supports CardBus (32-bit) PC cards, and Apple added this technology to the Powerbook G3 Series Wallstreet and newer. Earlier powerbooks would only support the PCMCIA (16-bit) standard. I run a FireWire PC card in my Wallstreet and it works just fine.
    There are a few limitations with FireWire and USB PC cards:
    -You cannot boot an external FireWire HD through a PC card; only built-in FireWire ports support this feature.
    -FireWire and USB cards supply only minimal bus power, so you will want to have your external devices powered by their own power supply. For example, if you wanted to run a 2.5" FW HD, you will need a power adapter for the HD. This adapter is optional on some 2.5" FW HDs but all 3.5 HDs come with their own power supply.
    If you are running 10.x, the necessary FireWire drivers are already installed. If running 9.x, you will need to install Apple's FW drivers, so post back if you need help adding these drivers.

  • Has anyone used MC Helper to reset hotmail on their Mac?

    Has anyone used MC Helper to reset hotmail on their Mac. I just did and I'm am worried as I gave them access to my computer over the phone. They have solved access to my hotmail account though, but they charged $200 for it plus a years free support. I was very suspicious but in the end went ahead. I now fear that they may be a scam of sorts. They could have implanted or encrypted something on my mac. Is this likely? Does anyone know? I'd be most grateful.

    LogMeIn Rescue is for one time support. This is a common tool used to support users. Microsoft uses it when they do support. I use one of the LogMeIn products myself when working with clients.
    In the future if you need help with a Microsoft product you can get free help on the Microsoft forums.

  • Has anyone used BootStrap Tour or PageGuide.js with their SAPUI5?

    Hello,
    Has anyone used any of these guide frameworks or something similar on their web applications across multiple views?

    This is a menu that has been created using Fireworks as can be verified by the following statement
    <!--Fireworks CS3 Dreamweaver CS3 target.  Created Wed Mar 24 11:44:39 GMT-0400 (Eastern Daylight Time) 2010-->
    The creation date tells me that the menu was created just on a week ago.
    So you are now having a problem with the newly created non-Spry menu! What better place to drop in then our trusty Spry Forum that deals with Spry related issues.
    We will help you though.

  • Has anyone tried one of these $40 eBay batteries...

    ...found this on eBay. Price sounds good but we all know what that usually means:
    http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=220396594649
    Has anyone tried one?
    -Alan

    While the ad says "new in box", that box may well have been sitting on a shelf for more then 5 years. And if so, it's worthless. LiOH batterys begin to decay from internal self-oxidation the minute they are assembled. Even just sitting idle on a shelf, under perfect environmental conditions, they will only last for 4-7 years, after which, their capacity to hold a charge is pretty much shot.

    You can put your iPhone 4 in a 4S case and it will work just fine. You shouldn't put a 4S in a 4 case (like the Otter Commuter) since the camera sensors are different.

  • Anyone using one of these processor upgrades?

    Is anyone using this processor upgrade from Other World Computing?Its this one:
    Motorola/Freescale PowerPC G4/7447A Processor running at 1.6GHz
    # 512K of 1:1 L2 Cache @ 1.6GHz
    # 100MHz or 133MHz bus operation
    # Bus Ratio of up to 16:1
    I have just recieved a Quicksilver 733(was supposed to be a dual 800,but it was defective),and I would like to max it out without spending nearly $400.00US for one of the 7448's.Is this worth $200.00US?Will I notice performance close to my dual 1.25 MDD?Or is this just a waste of money?Any info at all on this upgrade would be very appreciated,thanks!

    Well,duh,I should have just looked at your sig japamac! I forgot you were running one of these,nice to know its reliable.Good to know it will keep up with my current computer as well.Thanks BDAqua as I actually wanted to know if it would at least be better than the dual 800 I didnt get.Dont mind spending the cash,just dont want it to get out of hand if its just a small increase in performance.This will be paired with a 9800pro and sata Hitachi 1TB upgrades,so this shouldnt be a slowpoke with Leopard.And of course I maxed the ram out.Again thanks for the info(and FAST!!)!

  • 6212 Classic. anyone using one of these?

    i love the idea of contactless payment but has anyone with this phone set up the NFC payment system? i'd be interested to here how everyone is getting on with it?
    Nexu 5

    Yes, I am using my card and its real good as no need to carry the credit card.
    Not much to worry about currently as new and the wallet is locked and connected to the bank security (if advised it has been lost/stolen - Just need to ensure its locked most of the time for additional safety). 
    Also its a Java phone.
    It's real cool, just one swipe, the best thing is the bank informs you in 1-2 minutes of the transaction with the balance. 
    Did it help?

  • Anyone using one of these SSD?

    looking at buying one of these bad boyz to run my OSX with Logic and PTLE on my MAC PRO 3.2 8 core.  I have a UAD solo and an additional FW card as well and a SATA card running 4 external HD with Port Multiplier.  My concern is that this may kill my PCI BUS.  Any advise before I buy this thing?

  • HT1515 Will Airport Express work in hotels in China? They require user name/password to connect. Has anyone used one there?

    I will be traveling in China with my iPad2 and want to use hotel wireless. It requires a sign-in with user name/password.  Can I use an Airport Express for this purpose? How do I set it up for that? I have an old Express (pre-2007); can I use it or do I need to upgrade to the new model?

    OK - I have never been to China but the posts here say that it can be done - the cable from the hotel should be connected to the WAN port of the Express - the Express should be in bridge mode and set to create a wireless network with a name and password of your choice - you can do this with a computer before you leave for China or with the iPad if you have previously downloaded the Airport Utility app - you would then connect to your network and attempt to bring up a web page such as Google - the hotel should then intervene and ask you for the login info that they have provided.

  • Has anyone used Migration Assistant to move services from one system running Server to a new system?

    So, I've purchased a Mac mini to replace my aging Mid 2009 mini on which I've been running Mavericks Server.  In trying to answer the question of how best to move services from the old machine to the new, I've stumbled into the fact that Migration Assistant can apparently migrate not just user data for workstations and laptops, but also service data for servers.  The problem is there isn't much detail in the docs about how good a job it does when going from one machine to another without changing OS releases.  There's a very detailed document in the KB about going from older versions of Server to new (OS X Server: Upgrade and migration from Lion Server or Snow Leopard Server) and a general doc on migrating from another Mac under Mavericks (OS X: How to migrate data from another Mac using Mavericks) but that has no details about Server.
    Has anyone used Migration Assistant to move services from one system running Server to a new system?  Are there any details that are particularly important to get right?  Are there things that require manual steps after Migration Assistant is done?
    There are other ways I could tackle the problem, of course.  I could simply swap drives between the systems, but the new system has two drives that are bigger, faster, and I intend to mirror them.  That would complicate such an approach.  I'd really like to keep the conversation constrained to a discussion of Migration Assistant as the primary method.

    yes. I migrated a server frm lion to mavericks following these notes a while back:
    OS X Server: Upgrade and migration from Mountain Lion
    i do not recall having any problems with it.

  • Has anyone used MDC for R/3 Systems?

    Hello,
    We have a custom transaction that we run against our R/3 (ECC 6.0) system that's performing poorly.  Adding an index helped but it's not enough to make the transaction run within the 10 minute timeout period configured for dialog processes.  I am testing defining the table as an MDC table.  I know SAP supports this for BI systems but has anyone tried it for R/3?
    Thanks,
    Florencio

    Hello Florencio,
    here I have to correct Maltes statement.
    INCLUDE columns in an index, MDC tables and some other DB2 features are "supported" in the ABAP DDIC. Supported here means that if a database object which uses one this these DB2 specific features needs to be changed (for instance during an upgrade) the ABAP dictionary will ensure that these features survive the modification.
    We know that there are scenarios where it makes sense to use these DB2 specific features. So, if you know what you are doing, you are free to use MDC organized tables, INCLUDE-columns in indexes etc. in your R/3 OLTP system.
    To find out what exactly is supported by the ABAP DDIC, please refer to chapter 7.3 ('Tables and Indexes') in the [DB2 Database Administration Guide|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/f03d5fb8-b619-2b10-c383-c6d56872829e]. Not all features are supported in all R/3 versions.
    Also note that the support for specific DB2 features is continiously extended. For the forthcoming version of DB2 e.g. we plan to support table partitioning in the ABAP data dictionary.
    Regards,

  • Has anyone used the new 5K retina iMac with Lightroom

    Has anyone  used Lightroom with the new 5K Imac. If so any problems ?

    Just bought one - arrives next week. From what i can tell it's should be the fastest mac for lightroom. Processor speed is most vital. Doesn't really use all the mac pro multiple cores as I understand 4 is plenty (correct me pls?) and 16Gb ram should hopefully do it. Getting a raid thunderbolt 2 drive for image storage which will daisy chain with my eizo monitor. Choose 3tb internal fusion as I understand full SSD doesn't really help too much. 2GB graphics plenty unless you're doing video maybe?.
    Only issue is I have a series of archive 3TB firewire 800 drives which are daisy chained. the questions is how will these work with an adapter but this remains to be seen....
