HomeDock issues-on screen navigation

I installed a DLO HomeDock Deluxe. This allows me to use on-screen navigation of the iPod. It worked for a couple days and now everytime I go to the On-Screen mode it will not play thru the TV--instead it bouces from the iPod menu to a "checkmark" saying it is OK to disconnect----it yeilds no on screen navigation features. I took the DLO back to the store, thinking it was defective and obtained a new one. The same thing happens to the new one--so it is something in the iPod settings. Anyone have any ideas?

I've had the same problem. It seemed to start when the iPod was updated to the 1.2 software level. I had to reset everything (pull the power on the Homedock) and got it to almost work. It stopped the checkmark screen looping on the iPod and does show the TV screen, but it will only show the 1st song I play, doesn't update the time bar, nor change when the song changes.
I emailed DLO about it, they had nothing useful. They apparently do not provide a way to update the HomeDock software (the USB connection is straight to the iPod) and only suggested I reset the iPod. Tried that, no joy.
This kind of defeats one of the main features of the HomeDock.

Screen Navigation

Hi All,
I am maintaining an SAP application. In addition, I am new to SAP/ABAP. Is there a built in mechanism that tracks the previous screen that you were on so that you can get back to the previous screen. I see that most of the code is using memory parms and CASE to handle screen navigation; however, since I recently was required to skip a screen (out of the normal screen flow) this issue has risen. If I skip one of these screens, we will call it screen 2 and I end up at screen 3 from screen 1. Then from screen 3 I go to screen 4. How can I get back to screen 3 then screen 1. My code currently works as long as I do not go to screen 4 from screen 3. In other words, if I never go to screen for and I click the 'BACK' button I successfully get back to screen 1, skipping screen 2 just as I did going forward; that is what I want. It seems to be very convoluted to create all these memory variable to track screen navigation. Is there a built in function that manages screen navigation so that it can be as simple as setting the screen name before you leave a screen and calling some kind of previous command to get you back to the previous screen.
Thanks
Tom

I finally figured it out. Thanks anyway.

On click should open a new page, yes? So it won't matter.

Hi ,
use it this way....
firstly set flag for each screen when you dislpay them say for the first screen you set the flag = 1 and for second u set it to 2 and so on.... then in the call function use as used below... important user_command to be passed
CALL FUNCTION 'REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY'
EXPORTING
i_callback_program = sy-cprog
i_callback_user_command = 'USER_COMMAND'        " this is the subroutine of your program where you control the navigations....
i_callback_pf_status_set = 'PF_STATUS'
it_fieldcat = it_field
TABLES
t_outtab = i_final
EXCEPTIONS
program_error = 1
OTHERS = 2.
FORM USER_command using rs_ucomm type sy-ucomm rs_selfield type slis-selfield.
   case rs_ucomm.
     when 'BACK' or 'RW' or '%EX'.
           if flag = 5.
               flag = 4.
"               call the subroutine which displays the fourth ALV screen or call the FM reuse with the table used in fourth screen.
          elseif flag = 4.
             flag = 3.
"               call the subroutine which displays the third ALV screen or call the FM reuse with the table used in third screen.

Issue when using Navigation attributes for filtering in BEX

Hello,
We are encountering an issue when applying filter on Navigation attributes in BEx query built on top of a BW HANA Virtual Provider.
The interface is as below :
HANA Calculation View -> SAP BW 7.4 Virtual InfoCube -> Multiprovider -> BEx Query.
We have directly mapped the base Infoobject from HANA View to BW Virtual Provider and using this in BEx query free characteristics. We also have used the navigational attribute of this Infoobject in our Report variable screen as well as an Auth relevant object.
Eg if ZMATERIAL is the base infoobject and ZMATERIAL__ZXYZ navigational attribute is used in the report variable screen and as Authorization variable.
This is causing the query to fail.
The query also fails if I apply any filter values on any Navigational attribute with error message :
"Termination message sent ERROR DBMAN (305): Error reading the data of InfoProvider"
Using the navigational attribute with authorization variable fails with below :
"Termination message sent ERROR DBMAN (099): Invalid query;Failed to find attribute ZMATERIAL__ZXYZ [...]"
Appreciate any inputs on this issue and how this can be fixed.
Thanks,
Tintu

Hi Andrey,
Thank you for your input.
Based on the OSS note , it says to import BW7.4 SP7. We are already on BW7.4 SP7
We get error "Termination message sent ERROR DBMAN (099): Invalid query;Failed to find attribute
ZMATERIAL__ZXYZ" whenever we try to apply filters on any of the navigational attribute.
Thanks,
Tintu

Facing Problems in screen navigation after adding a New custom tab to MM03

Hi,
I have added a new custom tab to MM03 transaction by using SPRO.This new tab is appearing in between Basic data 2 tab and Classification tab in MM03.In my new tab i have 4 sub screens and the Last sub screen has table control.Now the problem is when i slide the vertical bar in my table control it is automatically triggering the Classification screen.
For preparing the New tab in SPRO ->SAP Reference IMG ->Logistics-General->Material Master->Configuring the material master ->Define structure of data screen for each screen sequence ->
Here i have created a new screen sequence 'Z5' by copying the already existing sequence '21'.Inside this new screen sequence i have created a new screen of mine by copying the already existing screen '4004'.
For maintaining the screen sequence i.e., to place the new tab between Basic data2 and Classification tab go to SPRO ->SAP Reference IMG ->Logistics-General->Material Master->Configuring the material master ->Maintain order of main and additional screens.I have changed the order of main screen sequence to make our new tab the third tab.
To make this new tab visible only for MM03 transaction i have gone to SPRO ->SAP Reference IMG ->Logistics-General->Material Master->Configuring the material master ->Assign screen sequence to User/Material Type/Transaction/Industry sector.In this in the Transaction screen reference, I have changed the screen reference number for MM03 and i have include this new screen reference entry in the screen sequence control column.
To create the sub screens required i have gone to SPRO ->SAP Reference IMG ->Logistics-General->Material Master->Configuring the material master ->Create Program for customized sub screens and have copied the standard Function group MGD1 and created 4 sub screens.
Now to place these 4 sub screens in the order required for us i have once again gone to SPRO ->SAP Reference IMG ->Logistics-General->Material Master->Configuring the material master ->Define structure of data screen for each screen sequence and i have selected the new screen sequence created 'Z5' created by me.Inside that i have selected the screen created by me '4004'. Now i have double clicked the Sub screen options and here i gave the sub screens numbers created by me replacing the standard sub screens.
Then I activated by custom function group and i started testing the MM03 transaction.
My screen was getting populated properly and the tab movement is also fine but only problem was when i slide the table control in the fourth sub screen of my new tab i am going to fourth screen (classification).
Can you please help me by suggesting what the problem may be, why this issue in navigation.

Hi ,
I have the same problem now ...
Did you solved it?
Thanks a lot!

HP Envy 15 Heating Issues and Screen Damage

Hello,
This is going to be quite long since I'm going to explain everything in as much detail as possible.
I bought my HP Envy 15 (j123tx) in September 2014 and for three months I had absolutely no issue with it (work wise and gaming wise) until one day I booted up the computer and noticed that a big rectangular portion of the screen (on the top - in the rectangular area that aligns with the touchpad when the lid is closed) was discoloured. Specifically it was much darker than the rest of the screen on a black background and yellow on a white background.
After checking to see if there was anything on the screen's surface, I realized it was a hardware issue and decided to use my warranty (of which I have another 8 months or so remaining). I told the retailers about the issue and they told me it could be because of the pressure applied on the lid (when it is closed) that affects the screen specifically in that area since the touchpad is a bit sunken in to the notebook's body. After expressing my displeasure at how inconvenient that is since I've taken very good care of my notebook and have only transported it in the HP notebook bag, they promised me that they would send it to the HP Service Center in Sri Lanka who would replace the display panel for me (obviously since my notebook is still under warranty).
After 10 working days, I went over to the retailer's warranty center and collected my notebook with the display panel replaced and the problem gone. I did however notice that the technicians had pasted a note next to the touchpad which read "Check the temperature of the touchpad. It could be heating up and damaging the screen". I asked the retailer's technicians what this meant and they told me that since the notebook has a magnesium (or magnesium based) body, it tends to heat up. The heat could also be heating up the touchpad (since that too seems to be made of magnesium). As a result whenever I close the lid of my notebook, the rectangular screen area directly above the touchpad could be heating up and thus getting damaged.
Now this to me seems like a huge product defect. I've been using HP notebooks for more than 8 years and I've never heard of this issue before. I asked the technicians how I could prevent this from occurring again and they told me to use the little cloth that came with the laptop when I bought it that is placed under the lid (between the screen and the keyboard) when the lid is closed.
While using that little cloth doesn't seem to be quite inconvenient, I'm very afraid that the problem will occur again and I'll have to get it fixed again which involves transferring all my data and losing my notebook for 2 weeks which is highly problematic for me as I require it for work. Should the problem occur again outside the warranty period, I feel I may have wasted a good amount of money on this notebook when I trusted HP over its competitors simply due to my past experiences with its reliability, durability and performance.
While I realize this is not a current issue - I would really like to know if this issue has been experienced before (my search did not turn up anything related) and if I do have to be worried about it happening again and if so, how I should go about handling it with the retailers (perhaps I should give it back and ask for a refund for selling me a defective product).
Thank you sincerely.
PS: I have attached a picture of the problem when it occurred for your reference.

Thanks for the prompt reply WeiH.
Sadly there doesn't seem to be an HP Service Center in my country (Sri Lanka). So now I'm really confused as to what my retailer's technicians meant by "we'll send it to the local HP Support Center and have your display panel replaced".
Whatever they did, the display panel has been replaced and I've been using it for less than a week so far with no issues. The touchpad hasn't really been heating up and has in fact been as warm as the rest of the notebook. Perhaps it's because I have now turned on the option of disabling the touchpad whenever an external cursor device is attached (since I primarily always use a mouse).
Needless to say, since we both have no clue as to how the touchpad overheated and damaged the screen (in the exact position and measurement as the touchpad) I feel like it's just a matter of time before it happens again.
Obviously I understand that there's little you can do on your side other than direct me to an HP Support Center. However I hope my worries are justified as I feel that as a consumer I shouldn't have to worry about my brand new product malfunctioning by no fault of my own.

Issue with broken navigation when implementing a SSO filter

Hello
I'm facing an issue when integrating the Jasig CAS SSO with Siebel Self-Service (which is an Oracle ADF application). When applying the CAS Authentication Filters, the navigation rules and page flows in the Self-Service application cease to work.
The Siebel Self-Service application is using adfFaces filter, adfBindings filter and the SelfServiceFilter as controllers for the pages.
For the integration with the Jasig CAS, a client lib is installed in the Self-Service OC4J. This CAS Client provides an "Authentication Filter" that is defined in the web.xml. The pages in Self-Service that are to be protected by this authentication filter (the pages that needs user authentication in order to be accessed) are also mapped in the web.xml. This authentication filter checks the user against the CAS Server and sends back a ticket parameter with the URL if the user is logged in. This parameter is used to validate the login attempt, and on successful validation, the CAS server provides the username of the user to a bean called by the SelfServiceFilter in the Self-Service app.
My problem is that any JSF navigation on a page (navigation rules and page flows) cease to work as soon as a page is protected by the Authentication filter. One example would be during the check out process (which consists of several steps - several jspx pages). When you click “Next” on the first check out step, you are not redirected to step no 2, but to the same check out page as you started on.
Since the Authentication Filter protects all the pages involved, it will intercept any request to these pages, fetch the request URL, redirect to the CAS server for user authentication, and on successful authentication it will redirect the user back to the URL that was fetched by the Authentication Filter in the first place.
I have been looking into this, and I think that the JSF navigation rules etc, cease to work because the JSF page flows are being interrupted. When clicking “next” the page would normally post information to the life cycle of the requested page (which in some cases in this app, is also a postback to the same page). This information is then used when going through the life cycle of the new page. But when the CAS Authentication Filter intercepts the request, send the user to the CAS server and then redirect back to the page, this page life cycle is interrupted, or the necessary data is not attached in this “new” request.
Does anyone have an idea for how I can solve this issue?
Thanks!
Jonte

Hi,
JSF pages use a postback navigation model. The filter works as expected but performs a redirect to the request page, which in the case of postback is the current page you see. To change this, you need to change the navigation cases to perform "redirect" navigation itself. Its ot an ADF Faces problem but default JSF behavior

IMac G4 OS 10.5.8 booting issues, blue screen

I'm trying to remotely help my mom to solve a big problem with her iMac G4 (2007 vintage.) It's running Mac OS 10.5.8. Everything was fine until a couple of weeks ago when it started refusing to boot. It starts to boot, you get the Apple and then it continues on to the blue screen, and never progresses from there.
It WILL safe boot, and I've tried all the things I can think of... disabled login items, reset PRAM, used Disk Utility to check the HDD and repair permissions. But it won't boot in normal (non-safe) mode.
So I decided the only solution would be to archive and install Leopard again. I figured the hardware was mostly likely okay, since it would safe boot. She couldn't find her Leopard install disks so I sent her mine.
But the system won't successfully start up from the install DVD. It does read from the DVD and starts the boot process, but again it hangs at the blue screen and does not continue beyond that.
I am not sure what to try next... I suppose it's possible that there some bad RAM or something which isn't accessed during the more limited safe boot but is used during a regular boot and causes the hang. It seems like the HDD is probably okay since it consistently safe boots without a problem. What else can I try?
Any suggestions are greatly appreciated!

The test as run from the original install-restore disc #1 should be accessible
when booted per instructions on the label. Usually, there's the method on how
to use the Installer (C key on boot) and also the other is there, on how to use
the same DVD to boot the Apple Hardware Test (perhaps Opt key.)
With an older computer, there is the chance the hard disk drive may be fading;
due to use and age factors. However, one could still (maybe) find information
on what else may be going on, IF the error and crash logs in the Console utility
could be accessed, then read through, by someone with technical knowledge.
The Console logs may be accessed if the computer can be started in SafeBoot.
And there are several, in there; some would not apply. Also, they're rather cryptic.
Sometimes, a section of a hard disk drive where the boot information is stored
could be damaged; or the Directory may be corrupted, so a third-party disk
utility on its own DVD or bootable volume can be helpful to correct that aspect.
Or to totally erase, zero, partition map and reformat the hard disk drive may do
to attempt to restore function of the computer to normal; while wiping user content.
A backup of content could be made; even a clone copy to an external, then that
could be transferred (via another clone, using Carbon Copy Cloner, etc) and if
the computer were wiped, that bootable clone could be moved back. Or, should
the internal drive be bad, the content of the computer can be put into a new HDD.
{The 'pizza box' iMac with the G5 PPC processor, had a few known issues in
certain models, some due to heat and other component failures; so the hard-
ware test may be helpful. So would an inspection of the power & logic circuits.}
Anyway, sounds like 10x the trouble at a distance, helping someone figure out how.
Good luck & happy computing!

Mac boot issue; gray screen, spinning wheel, and progress bar

Recently I shut down my Mac only to find when I tried turning it back on it was very slow and unresponsive. I proceeded to shut down a couple more times and this resulted in a gray screen upon startup with a spinning wheel, apple logo, and a progress bar. The progress bar did not fill at all at first, and as I left my laptop for about 40 minutes, it still hadn't moved. I proceeded then to boot in recovery and tried to repair my disk. This resulted in another issue, and would not repair, so I decided to just erase my HD, since there was not anything important on it anyways. I really just wanted my laptop to turn on so I could start my paper. Well it wouldn't erase my hard disk and this led to me becoming very impatient and just quitting the process. On the next attempt to boot in recovery, the hard disk doesn't even show up. Only the recovery disk (previously there were two disks as options, as well as the wifi selection). I'm now using safari through the recovery option. I'd like to simply get my computer back. If i can't get anywhere on here, i'm just going to bring it to the apple store and return it, most likely, as i've had nothing but problems with this thing. I've had it since the middle of September, and I can't hardly believe i've already encountered such an issue. Any help is much appreciated. Thanks.

I'd make a trip to the Apple Store - your hard disk may be dying (the Recovery partition is very small) or there might be something corrupt in your system. They'll be able to evaluate it.

TP Yoga numerous issues with screen and digitizer

Hello
Summary:
I bought a 20CD0001IV about two months ago (Demopool). I need it for work and drawing, but so far I have numerous issues. And right now I'm kinda lost: What should I do? Send a support question to lenovo/IBM EC? Contact my retailer? Are these common problems? I'm also not sure about my warranty. The Lenovo Solution Center says, I still have warranty. The different parts of the website say different things. I'll assume worst case: My warranty is likely expired.
I tried:
Fresh Installation Windows 8.1, newest drivers, newest Wacom drivers. Tried different settings. Calibration, Pressure Curves, all the stuff. Have 3 different Pens. Searched google, searches this forum...
Problems:
Massive Ghosting, I know, there is a solution on the forum. It says to replace the old screen with a newer model, but is this possible if the warranty is expired?
Calibration is a mess! The digitizer point wobbles under the pen, this is most obvious near the screen border, where straight lines turn into curves. But it's also an issue in the middle of the screen. In some places the cursor is 2mm top left of the actual pen tip, in other places it's bottom right UNDER the pen. I tried all kinds of calibration already... I know about a "dead spot" issue, but this was fixed with a firmware update and my issue is all over the place, not just one spot.
The screen is not very solid. Even medium pressure with the pen leads to dark and light display glitches near the tip.
Pen pressure "clipping". The 100%-Pressure is reached waaaay too quickly when I actually press with medium force. This leads to a very screwed pressure curve, where drawing lighlty or drawing medium is a lot harder, because there is not much scope. Basically, I draw with 100% Pressure 90% of the time. 100% should only be reached when I press intentionally hard.... I tried this with different pens, it's not an issue of the pen. (This is also not the first wacom device I use, so I can compare... I'm not just heavy handed...). The wacom settings themselves are not of real use, they only influence to curve from 0 to 100, but can't move the 100%-Point itself (maybe someone has a better understanding of the wacom settings and knows how to do it)
Edit: ...The ThinkPad Logo just came off, too o_O
To be honest, this is terrible quality for a lot of money. I could live with one or two issues, but this is almost unusable. I wonder if those are common problems and all Yogas have a screen like this. I had a Samsung Slate before and the screen was like solid glass and did not dent at all and I never had so many problems at once.
I don't expect solutions for those problems. But I hope that someone can point me into the right direction like "Yeah, this is a known hardware thing, read this...". If someone knows a good tool to troubleshoot/analyse Wacom Input let me know (I only tried the Pressure Curve Tool).
Is there any hope at all if my warranty is really expired?

I did some more testing with the maximum pressure issue. And it might be related to the pressure level of pens. As far as I know the Yoga supports 1024 levels. I have a new Wacom PL-900 and it has only 512, and the pressure problem is strongest. It is the same with the original Yoga pen, I'd say - even though this should have 1024 levels? But with an old Samsung Series 7 pen I need to press harder to reach 100% pressure - although it is still not really "hard". I'm not entirely sure how many pressure levels the Samsung Slate pen has, thought it was 510, but have seen some reviews mentioning 1024...
Anyway, I posted this issue in the wacom forums.

Format issue causing iBook navigation problems

Hello!
I created an iBook for a client, but some of the default functions of an iBook aren’t working when it’s previewed on iPad. My question is: since the file format seems to be the issue, what can be done to alleviate it?
Problems
When previewing the iBook on the iPad...
Framing features such as navigation bar, book info, bookmark tool, etc. are missing
The pages lack animated page turns
Right and left page edge riffles are missing
When the iPad is turned vertically…
Pages scroll top to bottom instead of left to right as they should
All images disappear
Basically, the iBooks works mostly well in landscape mode but not so much in portrait mode. The client checked other iBooks to compare and the iBook I created is the only one with problems with the interface functions.
Steps Taken To Save & Preview File
Saved the iBook file as an IBA file. I also Exported it as an iBooks file.
Sent IBA and iBooks files to the client to preview on his iPad (I don’t have one so I can’t preview it myself).
The client opened the IBA file using iBooks Author then clicked the “Preview” button.
The IBA file cross-loads to the iPad and the problems can be seen.
The client also attempted to load the IBA and iBooks files on the Book Proofer application (this application does accept IBA and iBooks files), but that didn't work either. The client told me that are some file format issues unrelated to content, leading me to believe that it's a format issue.
Technical Specifications
iBook Author version I used to create iBook
1.1 (the latest)
iBooks version client used to preview iBook
iBooks version 2.1.1 (April 16, 2012 release)
iPad version the iBook is being previewed on
1st Generation 64GB iPad
File being used to preview on iPad
The IBA and iBooks files for the iBook
Could it be file format incompatibilities? Has anyone had this issue before? I hope the information I provided is useful. Any insight about these issues is greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
Catrina

Again, sorry, a 'Shared' .ibooks file has the same format as what users download from the store.
You don't need to be in the store to circulate that file. 'private' as defined depends on you. Email that file if possible and/or put it on your own server/dropbox and share the link to trusted individuals.
If you're sending the .iba file to someone that then uses it in iBA, they need to use the 'Shared' menu to generate an .ibooks file, then drop that into iTunes and sync to their device.

Macbook Pro Boot Issue, White Screen with Apple

Having a similar issue with my macbook pro. When I press the power button, a white screen appears with an apple icon in the middle and a small cirle on the bottom that is like a timer. I thought that the computer might be downloading something, but I left it on for hours and the computer didn't get out of that mode. I have tried several things such as the installation cd, first aid repair, but both said repairs weren't needed and that the drives were fine. Any suggestions on why the computer is doing this? It's been several days and I shut if off, leave it off for an entire day and when I turn it on, the same screen with the apple appears and nothing else.
Any ideas are appreciated!
Thank you!

Hi Claudiat :
You could try a SMU reset, which may solve your problem,
from Apple:
MacBook, MacBook Pro
If the computer is on, turn it off.
Disconnect the AC Adapter and remove the computer's battery.
Press and hold down the power button for 5 seconds and then release the button.
Reconnect the battery and AC Adapter.
Press the Power button to restart the computer.

MSI CX61 issue - blank screen, amber power button. Help appreciated.

Good evening,
I have an issue with my MSI CX61. If anyone can help I'll be very grateful.
The notebook is unmodified it has all the original hardware straight from the box.
The issue is that the MSI, when turned on, seems to access the hard drive for a second before the blue led that indicates hard drive access stops blinking. The MSI doesn't even reach the logo. It is completely unusable, there is nothing on screen, at present I cannot access bios.
The battery led to show the notebook is charging starts off blue and then turns orange.
The power button is persistently Amber.
What I have attempted:
I have attempted to run the computer directly off the battery, battery taken out, and the problem persists.
I have connected my laptop, via HDMI cable, to a TV while turning the notebook on; the TV stays blank but appears to receive a signal
The harddrive is working while attached to another laptop, it can access all my data.
If this is important the last thing I did was install steam. The problem started when my computer cut out. No warning, it still had battery also.
Any help will be greatly appreciated

Ok hi, it seems like you might have the windows black screen error and its because of faulty windows updates, it usually occurs on windows 8 systems but might occur on others too. What i suggest is to set it back in time before you installed steam and now you can do this by pressing f8 or f9 or shift f8 or shift f9 or f10 or f11 when starting your laptop.
Try the different keys just spam click it really while restarting or booting cold your laptop and test all the keys im 100% sure one of them should work or maybe its another key but u should come to windows recovery options and from there u choose reset. Try it and tell me if it worked thanks!

T61p - sound issue when screen wakes up (Win7)

Hi all.
I am facing the following issue: the laptop plays audio (be it mp3, online radio etc.); Screen saver kicks in after the amount of minutes that I set (10min) > all is OK, audio continues. If I move the mouse, screen saver goes away, audio plays without problems.
The problem appears after the LCD monitor goes to sleep while audio is still playing: moving the mouse of touching a key > LCD powers on again but the audio is interrupted by 1-2 seconds of audio shutter exactly when the power is resumed to the LCD.
Is there any way to fix this?
I tried search on this forum .. I'm googling in an effort to gain some insight in this ... maybe I find a way out.
P.S. all the power management driver versions that I've tried make this happen ...
Regards,
W500 / T61p / T61 / R60

I think this is not normal lag when your system powers the monitor up again. My guess is an solid state harddrive might help, but it's pretty normal for the computer to be interrupted momentarily when something is powered on/off like your screen. If it bothers you, perhaps using a black screen saver instead of powering off the video would create less of a interruption.
