Help with changing to Sky TV

Hi,
I have just cancelled my BT Vision service (OH does not like it) but still have BT Broadband and Calls which we are not changing. We have no phone line downstairs but a phone line upstairs and are using the BT powerline adapters. The powerline adapter downstairs is connected to the BT Vision box, the one upstairs is connected to the Home Hub which in turn is connected to the Internet part of the ADSL filter. Home hub upstairs is also connected via Ethernet to desktop PC. Downstairs we use wireless for the laptop.
My question is, we are thinking about getting a SKY TV package. They say that we need a telephone line to do this for the box to be connected to. We have spoken to a local SKY fitter who said we could use the powerline adapters to get around this problem, he didn't say how, but I assume by using the same set up as we have now.
Query: would using the powerline adapters which go from the socket upstairs via Ethernet to the home hub and then there is a cable from home hub to ADSL filter work? I am bothered that there will be something that will cause a problem with it.
Also having read bits from the forum it seems to suggest that you can connect to SKY using a wireless setup (as we already do with the laptop) does anyone know if this is true? We are thinking of getting a SKY+HD box.
Please anyone who answers speak in lay terms, above is about the limit of my technical knowledge.
Thanks to anyone who can help.
Solved!

I am actually asking if you can run SKY TV through BT powerline adapters and through the BT Home hub, which seems to be a question for BT not SKY as they will say as it is BT equipment contact BT.
If anyone with any knowledge of running SKY and BT in tandom (I am sure there must be some) have any ideas it would be appreciated.
You need to ask this question on a Sky forum. The fact you are using BT eqpt means didilly squat. As Guy said, the installation isn't your problem, its the installers.
But I can tell you one thing, the box does not plug into an internet hub/router. Nor have you been told it needs to be.
Just ask your questions on a Sky forum and you'll find all the answers you need.

Can anyone help with iPlayer and Sky Mobile?

Ok, I'm so close to giving up with this useless phone. There are 3 apps on my N97 which give me a constant headache.
BBC iPlayer
Sky Mobile*
YouTube
*I should point out that I only use Sky Mobile to set recordings on my Sky+. I do not use it for, nor have any desire to use it for actually watching Mobile TV.
All of these apps work absolutely fine over my home WiFi network. It's when I try to use them over 3G (my Vodafone Live! connection) that I start running in to trouble.
All 3 give me connection problems, errors, and simply refuse to load half the time when on 3G. I got so annoyed I just did a hard reset the other week, and magically all three started working again. However, now 2 of them are failing me again. YouTube (touch wood) is working fine at the moment, but iPlayer and Sky Mobile just aren't.
iPlayer sometimes works. But sometimes I get script errors (unable to load content), and sometimes it says something about checking my connection settings. I wouldn't mind but it's not actually possible to access any options for the iPlayer. Even in application settings there are no options you're able to set.
Sky Mobile simply flat out refuses to work ever on 3G. But it did after I did a hard reset for a couple of weeks, now it just stopped working! It wont even load. It just gives the error message 'Unable to connect to network - please check connection settings" or something along those lines.
I've tried so many different things. Tried setting my internet connections to 'always ask', tried setting it to default to Vodafone Live! all the time, tried setting my video streaming settings to WAP, all sorts. Every combination I can think of.
I just can't wait to get rid of this phone. I've put so many people off buying one. They see it and think it's all swish and cool, and I just say 'Don't. You'll regret it'. I can't wait for my contract to be up so I can upgrade to an iPhone now Vodafone have got them.
Can anyone help with these problems? Thanks in advance, but I don't hold out much hope...

About iPlayer.
Have a chat with Vodaphone. Streaming iPlayer over 3G IS allowed on Vodaphone contract, unlike my O2 contract. As long as your contract allows it, and you have the correct AP address, it should be fine. Vodaphone should be able to give you the setting.
Mine only works over Wlan.
FWIW, "... streaming over 3G is not currently available on iPhone handsets on any mobile network".
p.s. Just to be clear. You say "Tried setting my internet connections to 'always ask', tried setting it to default to Vodafone Live!".
iPlayer uses the Nokia browser "Web". So that's where you should make the setting "Ask when needed". It should then offer you the choice of whatever you've set in Destinations> Internet> then select whatever you've chosen as your GPRS connection.(as advised, or sent to you by Vodaphone).

Still need help with changing hostname on Solaris 10

Hello.
I have some difficulties with changing host name of my computer.
It is DHCP Client.
AS I understand there are the following steps that I have to do:
1. Edit the /etc/default/dhcpagent file and change the line that reads the following:
#REQUEST_HOSTNAME=no
to
REQUEST_HOSTNAME=no
2. There are two empty /etc/hostname files: hostname and hostname6.
Do I have just to put there hostname?
3. /etc/hosts has what I need to change.
4. I was unable to find /etc/nodename. Do I have to create it? What properties should contain this file?
5. hostname <new hostname>
In previous time when I tried to change host name with Management Console my system crashed, I changed: /etc/hosts, but it didn't work.
Thank you.

Hello.
Using DHCP you may really have problems changing the hostname.
The fact is: The DNS server may assign your machine a host name which has nothing to do with the host name you sent to the DHCP server. Depending on the server (typically DHCP and DNS server are the same machine) nothing will really work. (This is the case with my configuration where the servers are located on a DSL router.)
I solved the problem the following way:
* I created two host names (MyMachine and MyMachineNet) in the /etc/hosts file (Solaris 10 and newer: /etc/inet/ipnodes must be changed, too.)
* "MyMachine" is 127.0.0.1 (localhost):
127.0.0.1 localhost MyMachine
192.168.178.100 MyMachineNet* I assigned the name "MyMachineNet" to the network interface in /etc/hostname.networkcard.
* I use DHCP
The computer name (in /etc/nodename) is "MyMachine". Some programs (e.g. Gnome !) establish a TCP/IP connection to "MyMachine" instead of "localhost" (I do not understand why). These programs are now satisfied because the host name "MyMachine" represents 127.0.0.1 (localhost).
I know that there is a switch that tells Solaris to take the machine name from DHCP/DNS instead of /etc/nodename. Unfortunately I forgot where it is.

Can anyone help with changing colors without making a selection

I've been trying to work the the script below. All the front most paths are black I want to change them all to yellow without having to select them first.
Any help would be really appreciated. "I am a novice javascripter"
var myStyles = app.activeDocument.pathItems;
lastStyle=myStyles[myStyles.length-1]
lastStyle.remove();
frontStyle=myStyles[0]
frontStyle.filled=true;
// Sets the default fill color in the current document to yellow.
if ( app.documents.length > 0 ) {
//added
frontPath = frontStyle;
// Define the new color
var newRGBColor = new RGBColor();
newRGBColor.red = 255;
newRGBColor.green = 255;
newRGBColor.blue = 0;
// Use the color object in the path item
frontPath.filled = true;
frontPath.fillColor = newRGBColor;

A couple of pointers from one novice to another… With script there is NO need to deal with 'selections' to change the writeable properties of any object you simply need reference them with your code as you have done above… You can select art and you can deal with user selected art should you wish but as a rule for all else just target the object with your syntax… The best thing to do is to get your code working… as you know the current state to be ( a document open with you test objects in it ) once you have this then add to it by wrapping your conditionals around this… For example…
if ( app.documents.length > 0 ) {
     // All your code goes inside this statement
There is no point in getting the path items of the active document then checking later if there is a doc… Just a case of putting things in there respective order…
The property filled… I only use to check the state, giving an object a fill will automatically update this… So here are your lines with a little reshuffle and a loop example…
// Check there is a doc open
if ( app.documents.length > 0 ) {
          // set a variable to the front document
          var doc = app.activeDocument;
          //Make your new color
          var rgbYellow = new RGBColor();
          // assign some values
          rgbYellow.red = 255;
          rgbYellow.green = 255;
          rgbYellow.blue = 0;
          // set variable to the collection ( list ) you want
          var paths = doc.pathItems;
          // loop this using a variable 'i'
          for ( var i = 0; i < paths.length; i++ ) {
                    paths[i].fillColor = rgbYellow;
          }; // this is your loop ending
}; // this is the condition ending

Help with change log subscriber rights

Can someone help me give my change log subscriber object rights to see changelogs?
I am using OID 10.1.2.1.0 on RH Linux. I followed the directions for creating my change log subscriber in the OIM Integration guide under "Synchronization with Third-Party Metadirectory Solutions". I used the Oracle Ldap command-line tools from a windows box.
The cn=orcladmin user can see the changelog entries, but my subscriber object account get's "insufficient_rights" when it tries to see cn=changelog, although it seems to be able to browse the rest of the directory tree fine.
Here's a listing of my subscriber object:
C:\D\ldaptools_oracle>ldapsearch -h lynx -p 389 -s sub -D cn=orcladmin -w xxxxx -b "cn=Oracle Internet Directory" "(&(objectclass=*)(cn=miis_change_subscriber))"
cn=miis_change_subscriber,cn=Subscriber Profile,cn=ChangeLog Subscriber,cn=Oracle Internet Directory
orcllastappliedchangenumber=2600
orclsubscriberdisable=0
objectclass=orclChangeSubscriber
objectclass=top
cn=miis_change_subscriber
userpassword={SHA}8wNdwBiIGL4+QyKn06u...
authpassword;oid={SASL/MD5}ah1tJyQf8lp...
authpassword;oid={SASL/MD5-DN}Lt3/8l2R...
authpassword;oid={SASL/MD5-U}1XmqsqH9...
Here's my query for trying to see changelogs.
ldapsearch -h lynx -p 389 -D "cn=miis_change_subscriber,cn=Subscriber Profile,cn=ChangeLog Subscriber,cn=Oracle Internet Directory" -w xxxx -b "cn=changelog" -s one "(&(changenumber>=2600))" targetDN
ldap_search: Insufficient access
But the same query substituting the superuser gives me a list:
ldapsearch -h lynx -p 389 -D "cn=orcladmin" -w xxxxx -b "cn=changelog" -s one "(&(changenumber>=2600))" targetDN
Changenumber=2612, cn=changelog
targetdn=cn=instance1,cn=odisrv,cn=subregistrysubentry
Changenumber=2613, cn=changelog
targetdn=cn=instance1,cn=odisrv,cn=subregistrysubentry
Changenumber=2614, cn=changelog
targetdn=cn=instance1,cn=odisrv,cn=subregistrysubentry
etc...
Is there a particular group he should belong to?
Thanks!

Here I am answering my own question, after 10 days without a single response. Thanks, Oracle!
Through oidadmin (Internet Directory Manager) I added my change log subscriber account to the group: cn=odisgroup,cn=DIPadmins,cn=Directory Integration Platform,cn=Products,cn=OracleContext.
Don't know if this is the correct process or not, but this group has rights to see the changelogs. Now I can see 'em.
Thanks again!

Help with Change Password 11.0.3/8.0.5

Your help is greatly appreciated.
We have a requirement to change application end user passwords through an SQL connection. It is part of a password synchronization project. We will be making the SQL connection under "APPS" and wish to change the user passwords without knowing the old passwords. We do not intend to change the APPS user password just regular application user passwords.
We need to locate the user and then change the password for that user in the table FND_USER. The corresponding password columns are Encrypted_user_password, and Encrypted_foundation_password. From the literature both of these encrypted passwords are encrypted based off of the APPS user password.
1. What function does that encryption properly?
2. FNDCPASS is available in 11i, but can it be used on 11.0.3? Can anyone confirm it's use in 11.0.3, and if yes what components are necessary to get it to work properly.
Thanks for your help

A couple of approaches and all involve a bit of work.
Three steps:
Do the install of the 11.0.0 MSI at the command line
Then follow it with the 11.0.07 Updater MSP at the command line
Finally the 11.0.08 Security Patch MSP at the command line.
AIP
Create the AIP from the three files above then then run the MSI from the command line.

Need help with changing the name.

The proble I have with my pre is that I have added my email account to the phone, but when I send an email, they receive it in my uncles name, my name is lanny and they receive an email form cesar, I think you can see where the problem lies. Is there anyway I can change it to my name? Please help!

Hello and thank you for using the Palm Help Forums!
I would create a new Palm Profile. To do this you will need to go to the Device Info app, Reset Options, then select Full Erase. All pictures, videos, and anything else stored in the USB side of the device will be erased. I recommend that if you want to keep any of that to connect your device to a computer then click and drag everything you want to keep off of the device and onto your computer.
After you perform the Full Erase the device is going to reboot. It is going to come up with a screen to sign in to a Palm Profile or Create a New Palm Profile. NOTE*** You will need a data connection to do this. Select Create a New Palm Profile and fill in the blanks. Once you are back into the device you can set up your email accounts again and it should display the name you created the Palm Profile with.
I hope this helps,

HT1918 i need help with changing my billing information

hi iv followed the instruction on how to change my billing details and a message on my iphone 5c saying, your payment method was declined. please enter another payment method, i dont understand whats going on im not sure if i owe the apple app store money but i carnt see how i could when iv always had enough money in my account to pay for the product iv purchesed, this is causeing me alot of problems as i can not download important app that i need to proform my job.
please help
ashley

What are you trying to use as your payment method ? If it's a debit card then I don't think that they are still accepted as a valid payment method in all countries - from this page :
You may be able to use other payment types in your country, like debit and Maestro cards.
which implies that they are not accepted in all countries, and there have been a number of posts about them being declined.
If it's a credit card then is it registered to exactly the same name and address (including format and spacing etc) that you have on your iTunes account, it was issued by a bank in your country and you are currently in that country ? If it is then you could check with the card issuer to see if it's them that are declining it, and if not then try contacting iTunes support and see if they know why it's being declined : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Account Management

I need help with changing my iCloud account details

I have just change my email details on all of my other apple accounts. With this I also change my password but now I can't change my iCloud account details because my password and email are different. Can anyone help....?

On a computer, you sign out of the current account, then sign back in with your updated credentials. On an iOS device you delete the existing account then sign back in with the new credentials.

Need help with changing letter cases : (

Hey everyone, I have an assignment that needs to
1) allow the user to enter a sentence
2) count the number of upper case, lower case, spaces, and other characters in the sentence,
3) convert each first letter of a word into upper case if not already in upper case,
4) convert non first letters to lower case if not already in lower case
So, I have been successfull counting all characters, but I can't seem to find a way to convert the letter cases.
I understand I have to distinguish first letters and non first letters, and I did this by using a boolean.
Also, I tried to use a for loop and convert the letter cases accordingly by += 32 and -= 32.
This is what I have for now :
import javax.swing.JOptionPane;
public class Asg3 {
     public static void main(String [] args)     {
          String sentence = JOptionPane.showInputDialog("Enter a Sentence!");
          int length = sentence.length();
          int counter = 0;
          int uppercase = 0;
          int lowercase = 0;
          int space = 0;
          int other = 0;
          int total = 0;
          boolean firstletter = true;
          char thischarac;
          for (counter = 0; counter < sentence.length(); counter++)
                    thischarac = sentence.charAt(counter);
                    if ( thischarac >= 65 && thischarac <= 90 ) {
                         ++ uppercase;
               else if ( thischarac >= 97 && thischarac <= 122 ) {
                         ++ lowercase;
               else if ( thischarac == 32) {
                         ++ space;
               else {
                         ++ other;
                         ++ total;
          for (counter = 0; counter < sentence.length(); counter++) {
               thischarac = sentence.charAt(counter);
               if (firstletter == true) {
                         if (thischarac >= 97 && thischarac <= 122) {
                              thischarac -= 32;
               else
                    if (firstletter == false)
                         if (thischarac >= 65 && thischarac <= 90) {
                              thischarac += 32;
System.out.println("You have entered: " + sentence);
          System.out.println("Upper case Letters: " + uppercase);
          System.out.println("Lower case Letters: " + lowercase);
          System.out.println("The number of blank spaces: " + space);
          System.out.println("The number of other characters: " + other);
          System.out.println("Grand total: " + total);
          System.exit( 0 );
I am stuck on this for hours now, and all googling, asking friends, going over lectures have failed, and this is my last resort.
I understand it is frustrating when students come here for homework, but I would really appreciate any hints or help.
Thank you!

Oh, sorry I'm new and didn't realize the code button. Anyways, here it is
import javax.swing.JOptionPane;
public class Asg3 {
     public static void main(String [] args)     {
          String sentence = JOptionPane.showInputDialog("Enter a Sentence!");
          int length = sentence.length();
          int counter = 0;
          int uppercase = 0;
          int lowercase = 0;
          int space = 0;
          int other = 0;
          int total = 0;
          boolean firstletter = true;
          char thischarac;
          for (counter = 0; counter < sentence.length(); counter++)
                    thischarac = sentence.charAt(counter);
                    if ( thischarac >= 65 && thischarac <= 90 ) {
                         ++ uppercase;
               else if ( thischarac >= 97 && thischarac <= 122 ) {
                         ++ lowercase;
               else if ( thischarac == 32) {
                         ++ space;
               else {
                         ++ other;
                         ++ total;
          for (counter = 0; counter < sentence.length(); counter++) {
               thischarac = sentence.charAt(counter);
               if (firstletter == true) {
                         if (thischarac >= 97 && thischarac <= 122) {
                              thischarac -= 32;
               else
                    if (firstletter == false)
                         if (thischarac >= 65 && thischarac <= 90) {
                              thischarac += 32;
                                System.out.println("You have entered: " + sentence);
          System.out.println("Upper case Letters: " + uppercase);
          System.out.println("Lower case Letters: " + lowercase);
          System.out.println("The number of blank spaces: " + space);
          System.out.println("The number of other characters: " + other);
          System.out.println("Grand total: " + total);
          System.exit( 0 );
}The problem I'm having is converting letters to their right cases. I need to change the first letters of a word to upper cases, and non first letters to lower cases. For example, if the sentence the user entered is
"tHIS AssigNMent IS harD!" , I would have to convert it to : "This Assignment Is Hard!"
What I tried to do is use a for loop and a boolean.
If firstletter == true, and if the character was lower case, I would subtract 32 from that character.
If firstletter == false, and if the character was upper case, I would add 32.
The problem here is that, what do I have to do to make it print the converted sentence? I have tried System.out.println( "The new sentence is :" + sentence); which gives me only the original sentence,
and System.out.println("The new sentence is :" + thiscarac); which gives me all capital letters.
So there are two main problems:
1) Is my forloop and boolean correct in converting the cases? Am I using the right method?
2) If so, how do I get the system to printout the new converted sentence?
