Hi! As usual, no comments. That's good will save me money. I sure wish we could work together and leave our ego's at home. Doesn't look like that will happen very soon. That's Ok. I'm doing what makes me happy here. Helping other Toshiba owners to the best of my ability.

Solved It ... any experts care to explain this one...
ok, for 4 years ive had excellent broadband, in fact i checked the line myself as a BT engineer, I run my router off an upstairs extension, fitted it myself properly.
BT email me 2 weeks ago and say ill be on asdl2 and may experience some disconnections, ... i did .
The next day, my BB keeps going down, i work out that it happens when an xbox in our porperty is switched on, it cuts out the BB and i got an orange flashin BB light on my HH2
I phone BT, they fail to diagnose it and although i say it will do no use they send out an openreach engineer, i used to work with him in fact, he calls anyway and checks my line, all ok, he gives me a HH3 and it appears fixed
but for the 10 day signal to noise reset period we have sporadic fast and slow BB
more phone calls and i find out that the card in the exchange will not be reset for 10 days
when its finally reset is it fixed ........
Nope, now when an xbox is switched on and played, we have two, down goes the BB to 1/2 a meg, same problem as day one, i swapped the xboxes, phoned MS, open ports, open port forwarding for live ... all in vain
Could it be the power, i disconnect everything except the 50" plasma tv, it cant be that right !!!!!! its not internet able after all ..... errr yes it is the tv, everytime the tv goes on down goes the BB
i go to the master socket, take off the face plate my old work mate removed and there is a loose extension wire.
i reconnect it, and everything works fine
HOW could one loose extension wire give me 12 megs all day and night unless the plasma is on, i can only think that the wire was allways loose but has carried 7megs fine, then along comes adsl2 , this extenuates the issue and turns the dead wire into some sort of super aerial.
the plasma goes on and is picked up by this aerial and down goes my network

Hi. Welcome to the forums.
What initially struck me was interference, which is was only noticeable at certain frequencies and "effective" when a certain bit of kit was turned on - and hence in resonance with the loose wire perhaps.
Over the years, various bits of kit have affected the BB signal, in particular Christmas lights/trees (so I expect there might be a few folk reporting drop outs soon ), lift shaft machinery, faulty power adaptors and all sorts of stuff outside the property (e.g. next door). A lot are very hard to pin down. The lift shaft one took a few months and a very interesting online blog.

Hi,
When I insert a lightscribe DVD/CD into a lightscribe optical drive, then when I click to open the DVD, I faced this error 'How do you want to use this disc', although the DVD was full of data. When opening these
lightscribe DVD/CD via NON lightscribe optical drive, I noticed that the DVD/CD opened well without any problems at all.
Also, how can the System show to me 'How do you want to use this disc' , in particular when a DVD is non rewritable(DVD-R) and also contains data)?
Bear in mind, not all DVDs/CDs were not detected. However, only full lightscribe discs' (having data)
However, even blank lightscribe discs were detected without problems. When insert a lightscribe disc having data, then I faced that error. However, when inserting blank lightscribe discs I found that the disc were opened. Also,
non lightscribe discs were opened well.
When checking the device manager, I didn't see any issue with DVD/CD drive. If there were a problem unrecongnising, then I would have seen 'a remarkable mark' in front of it.
Note: I have faced this problem after trying formating a rewritable CD inserted onto the drive. Althouthg the format failed, all data on the disc was deleted. Anyway, after that, then inserting full-lightscribe discs are unregonised
Do you think the problem wth my optical drive. IF so, I would be saying why it wasn't happened with all other non lightscribe discs. If my lightscrib discs were corrupted, then why would they have opened well on another laptop.
I have done:
Press the Windows logo key+R to open the Run dialog box.
Type devmgmt.msc in the Run dialog box, then press Enter. If you are prompted for an administrator password or for a confirmation, type the password, or click Allow
In Device Manager, expand DVD/CD-ROM drives, right-click the CD and DVD devices, and then clickUninstall.
When you are prompted to confirm that you want to remove the device, click OK.
Restart the computer.
But the same prolbem is existing.
yes there is a virtual CloneDrive program installed on my PC, however, there is no any CD mounted into it. Even if a CD was mounted into Virtual Clondrive, there would be no problem at all, because the virtual CloneDrive is used to only
mount ISO disc images into it, and not physical discs.
Any I have do what you have said, when inserting a light-scribe disc having data, then I open it, I found this
NOTE: in the above screen shot there is a lightscribe DVD having data inserted. However, in the screen shot below, there a ightsrbe DVD not having data inserted. In the first screen shot, the disc is not reconginsed by Windows, however, in
the second is recognised.
Even when I have inserted a lightscribe disc not having data(empty), it opened well regardless of what virutal CloneDrive is enabled or disabled.
But when cliced on my problem didn't solve,
A man should convert his anger and sadness into strength to continue living in this life.Hi,
The product Name of my computer is: HP Pavilion dv6-6093ex Entertainment
Notebook PC support
The number of my computer is : LM610EA#A2N.
Could anyone please at this splendid forum take some of their precious time
out to really reply my questions and solve my problems?
FIRST OF ALL:
My HP Pavilion Laptop is about 3 years old.
My
sister's Dell Inspiron laptop is 3 years old.
My HP lapotp is well-cared, as opposed to my sister's Inspiron Dell laptop,
which is always thrown in dust without caring at all. Also, its battery is
always inserted even when it is fully charged while the laptop is plugged in to
the main power supply.
However, my laptop is either used on only battery, or on plugin. Also, it is
kept from the dust.
But, I really found that the battery of the Dell laptop
still lasts about three and half hours, and there is no problem cooling fan is
not oproperly preporly.
I only remember one thing differently done on my laptop battery which is I
charged it fully, then I stored it without using it for about four months, then
when I reused it, I found it got worse over time. I.e. first time of using it
after storing,I found it empty, then I charged it again fully, however, then it
lasted about 2 hours, then 1 and half hours, next an hour, now it is only
lasting about 20 minutes without performance. If there is high performance, then
the computer shuts down suddenly.
My problem is follows:::
First: Whenever I inserted any Containing Data OR Data
CD/DVD-R LightScribe discs, I found that HP optical driver was
unable to read them. When clicking on the optical disc drive
'duble-click', then I find that disc opens as this way(NOT: With a CD/DVD player
is grayed out)
Blank Or Used CD, DVD±R,RW lightscirbe is unable to be
read:(clicking on it let it Open like a USB FlashDrive or With a CD,DVD player:
NOTE: with CD/DVD Player is grayed out)
Used CD/DVD±R/RW Non-LightScribe disc opens normal:
Blank CD,DVD±R,RW Non-LightScribe opens normal(Opens like a USB FlashDrive or
With a CD,DVD)::

I tried running the below command line to fix potential disk issue 'Chkdsk
/r /f'
I cleaned the drive, discs, and so on.
I have uninstalled the all third-party data recording software.
I have uninstalled the Cyber DVD suite, lightscribe system software which
came pre-installed with my HP pavilion Notebook.
I have recovered my system from the Factory Recovery discs.
I have tried opening all those LightScibe discs not opening on my HP optical
drive, on a Dell optical drive, and all of them were opened well, although Dell
optical drive did not have a lightscribe feature at all., nor third party disc
recording software
However, the problem is still with opening the discs LIGHT-SCRIBE
Thus, my questions are:
How to determine if the drive is corrupted and needs to be replaced with
another one.
I think there something needed to be done on the BIOS Of my HP
laptop[[[A similar problems happened on my Desktop computer's optical
drive which is as follows:::(ALL discs are opened as empty by Optical Drive of
My Desktop Computer) ---while my optical drive of my desktop was connected to
the primary slave IDE, and the HDD was connected to the
primary master IDE, the optical drive and hard disk are functioning
well. However, I remember that while burning an image with Nero essential V: 5,
something went wrong, and then the Optical Drive of My Desktop Computer
(HL-DT-ST DVD-RAM GH22NP20) became NOT recognised/Installed on
BIOS, although it was still shown on the device manager as a
recognised device. Also, it was listed on my computer, however, when entering a
disc(blank or with data) into the drive, I found it was not recognised, and it
opened empty(no files at it), although it contains data. Thus, I decided to boot
to BIOS, and clicked on 'Autodetection for IDE', then I found that only HDD was
still shown as installed on BIOS. However, the optical drive was not. Th I tried
clicking on it on BIOS and then clicking on 'enter' to try to let the device be
re-recognized. However, that made no difference. I had to take part my computer
,and then reconnected the optical drive onto the secondary slave
IDE , and let HDD connected to the same primary master IDE.
Then, I found that the problem solved and all discs became being read
normally. Aslo, optical drive became installed on BIOS]]]

Trying to sync ipod with itunes library, but I keep getting this message, " The ipod is synced with another itunes library. Do you want to erase this ipod and sync with this i tunes library?"
I do not want to erase my ipod!!! Any suggestions?? please help!Another way. You can use a USB flash drive & the camera connection kit.
Plug the USB flash drive (works the same with an SD card) into your computer & create a new folder titled DCIM. Then put your movie/photo files into the folder. The files must have a filename with exactly 8 characters long (no spaces) plus the file extension (i.e., my-movie.mov; DSCN0164.jpg).
Now plug the flash drive into the iPad using the camera connection kit. Open the Photos app, the movie/photo files should appear & you can import. (You can not export using the camera connection kit.)

I have an iPhone and my 9 year old has an iPad, they are both linked to my Apple ID however I want his to be separate now so that we can send messages and face time. Any suggestions how I do this???
Thank you. I tried changing his id but it changed it on both devices:( Don't really have a clue:( I have set up an email account so that he can get an Apple ID.

My husband got a new ipad and set up his own apple id without looking into the implications of that. Now I want to sync this ipad with our itunes so we can access it on here, but our itunes has a different apple id. Any way to do this?
You should be able to accept this message, it will cause existing music, photos (not camera roll) and videos (also excluding those in camera roll) to be removed and replaced with those from this computer. All other user data on the iPad will be unaffected.

My iphone screen and lock button are broken, I bought a new phone and want to get all the information off my old phone. My old phone will not sync with itunes because it has a pass code on it. I have no way to enter the pass code. Is there any way to get around this so I can still retrieve my information from it?
If you are using the computer that you normally sync with, it should sync without entering the passcode. However, if this is not the computer you normally sync with, you cannot get past the passcode, it has to be entered.

My location services in iPod Touch 5 is not working. Any help?? I really want to fix this issue.
You do have it turned on ins settings>Privacy, right?
For location the iPod uses the location of nearby wifi routers that are in Apple's database. You do not have to be connected to the network/router to use that router's location. Thus, it appears that the iPod can't see a nearby router that is in Apple's database. Apple continuously updated their database based on info they obtain from iPhones. No one has been able to find a way to inform Apple of a router or correct is location.
You can confirm that by going to place with a know located router like Starbucks or McDonalds -
I have a Pioneer VSX-1012-K airplay amp and I want to change the name of it when i am using AirPlay. Is there any way i can do this?
If it is showing off line, either the battery is dead, the SIM has been removed or the iPhone has been restored. Report it to you carrier. Some offer blacklisting. You can also send a remote wipe to the phone via iCloud. There was also the option to send you an email if the phone is located when you were in Find My iPhone. Report it to law enforcement, change the passwords on all accounts that were on the device. Did you have a passcode on it?

Sorry ... I read but was unfortunately distracted from your original post. You have a system that came with Lion. The Lion that is on your system is only for your computer and cannot be downloaded from the app store again because you never purchased it officially through the App Store.
Try this for making an external USB/DVD copy of Recovery on an external disk. internet is still required for reinstall, though, I believe: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4848. But at least you have a separate Recovery Partition if you ever need a fully new and empty internal disk.
Your assumption is incorrect. Although he may not be able to download it from the App store he can download it directly for the Apple servers using the recovery partition on his original drive.
All you have to do is start the install routine and then point the install to an external hard drive. Once the download is finished the computer will reboot to start the install. At that reboot disconnect the external drive so the install can not start. Boot the computer back into the OS on the internal hard drive, which is what will happen automatically once the external drive is disconnected. Then connect the external and copy the files from it that were downloaded. Right click on that downloaded package file and select Show contents. In the contents of that package is a file called InstallESD.DMG. Copy that file out of the package and burn it down to a DVD or USB thumb drive and you now have the Full Lion Installer. I have several of them laying around on different hard drives and 2 USB thumb drives which I have used to reinstall Lion on my 15" MBP.

select count(*)
from CONF_dtl
where CONF_nbr = '1';Does this query return a count of 1? I doubt that, but that's what Oracle estimates in the EXPLAIN PLAN output. Based on that assumption you get a cartesian join between the two CONF_DTL table instances, and the result - which is still expected to be one row at most - is then joined to the SHIP_DTL table using a NESTED LOOP.
If above assumption is incorrect, the number of rows generated by the cartesian join can be tremendous rendering the NESTED LOOP operation quite inefficient.
You can verify this by using the DBMS_XPLAN.DISPLAY_CURSOR function together with the GATHER_PLAN_STATISTICS hint, if you're already on 10g or later.
For more information regarding the DISPLAY_CURSOR function, see e.g. here: http://jonathanlewis.wordpress.com/2006/11/09/dbms_xplan-in-10g/
It will show you the actual cardinalities compared to the estimated cardinalities.
If the estimate of the optimizer is incorrect, you should find out why. There still might be some issues with the statistics, since this is most obvious reason for incorrect estimates.
Are your index statistics up-to-date?

I have a new macbook pro and want to transfer my Mail autofill from my old mac. Never used Time Machine or Migration Assistant -- looks complicated. Any easy way to do this?

Thanks -- I would like to try this. I do not know how to reach hard drive from old mac to new. Can you help me with this?
There are two ways - you can boot your old Mac in Target Mode (reboot your Mac, and as soon as you hear the startup chime hold down the T key on the keyboard until you see the yellow/orange Firewire logo on screen). You can then use a FireWire cable to connect your new mac to your old one. The old Mac hard drive will appear on your new Mac as if it is an external hard drive.
Details on Target Disk Mode: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1661
If you don't have a firewire cable but you do have a home network (i.e. both computers can access the Internet at the same time), you can share the hard drive on your old Mac and then connect to it on your new Mac.
Good article on sharing your hard drive: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1549
Finally, if the above doesn't thrill you, you can hook an external drive to your old Mac, copy the mail folder over to it, then connect the external drive to your new Mac and copy it over. It's two steps, but if you don't have a firewire cable and aren't comfortable with sharing over a network it will work just as well - you just have to wait for the mail folder to copy twice instead of once.
If you get stuck post back!
