How Does Apple Determine What Posts Are Not Allowed to Remain?

Apple has deleted 2 posts that, while not favorable to Leopard, do not seem to violate any of the rules. I noticed that not all posts are favorable (naturally) but remain posted. Does Apple just search for the poster's user name and remove on that basis? I'll try posting the same message under another user name and see if it get's deleted or not. I am assuming that this message will be deemed to violate Apple's policy and Apple will remove this post very quickly.

So if one just says: I installed Leopard and lost all data and all third party applications and the Genius Bar could not fix and the data recovery place could not fix either in response to a posted question: "how was your experience with Leopard?" ..... is that a violation of the policy? It does not seem like it should be but that's the fact scenarioc
Yes. It has nothing to do with asking a specific technical question and asking for an answer.
This is not the Daily Agony Column that Holmes likes to read. It's not what you "seem" to want for a message board post.
The title here is Installation and Setup. I would ask a deeper question, however, which is why you would want to make such a post? To scare others? To make yourself "feel" better? What would be the point? You don't walk into a Post Office and start ranting about a letter you got from an Aunt who just cut you off in her will. I mean, you might, but why?
The fact is that there are many posts here on these boards that are unfavorable towards Apple and Leopard and even Apple staff. But they contain enough "meat" that they are not deleted.
Of the posts that I have seen vanish, most had nothing in them of any value. It's also interesting that many rants are from people who purportedly speak English but cannot spell simple words and know nothing about punctuation. In my holistic view of the world, I am not surprised that their computers crashed upon upgrading to Leopard. I keep repeating that it is all attention to details.

    I have about 5,000 images in a Folder.  How can I determine which images are NOT in a Collection?

    Create a smart collection with criteria "collection" and "does not contain"; and also with criterion Folder contains (or folder contains all)
    That works if you are thinking about a specific named collection.
    If you are interested in finding photos that are not in ANY collection, the usual trick is "collection" "does not contain" "a e i o u y"

  • How can I determine what sites are being referenced within Central Admin Upgrade and Migration Manage Databases Upgrade Status?

    When I go to Central Admin > Upgrade and Migration  > Manage Databases Upgrade Status, I have 2 content databases which have the status:
    Database is up to date, but some sites are not completely upgraded.
    How can I determine which sites are not completely upgraded?

    Manage Databases Upgrade Status will provide you all active and offline DB details, you can get same result
    using below PowerShell cmdlet.
    Get-SPDatabase and Get-SPContentDatabase will provide all active database/Content DB in Farm which include Service application db, central admin DB.
    Get-SPDatabase | Format-Table Name, ID
    Coming back to your question, if you find that there are some site are not completely upgraded then run below command and understand the cause if issue on specific DB.
    Test-SPContentDatabase WSS_ContentDB_Name
    If you find any missing file issue in DB then resolve these issue to upgrade content database.
    (verify all customizations referenced within the content database are also installed in the web application. This cmdlet can be issued
    against a content database currently attached to the farm, or a content database that is not connected to the farm )
    Use the Upgrade-SPContentDatabase cmdlet
    to resume a failed database upgrade or begin a build-to-build database upgrade against a SharePoint content database
    Upgrade-SPContentDatabase WSS_Content

  • How do you determine what shows are in free video on demand?

    How do you determine what to include in the free on-demand shows?  The Mentalist was always there before but is no longer.  This is especially important for shows like the Mentalist and The Good Wife which come on Sunday nights after sports events.  Even if I set my DVR to record 60 minutes over it doesn't always catch the entire episode.  Would also like to see Person of Interest  there.   And last but not least, you should have a way for people to access netflix or other services from your service.  

    If you go to BROWSE then the FREE folder you will find that everything in there is free viewing. If you go elsewhere and try to watch a paid show, you will get a prompt asking you to purchase. It also shows the amount of the movie before purchase.

    Hello Tonchee
    If you are seeing an Apple ID that is not yours, then you have purchased content on your iPad that is tied to that Apple ID. You would need to know that password or remove the content that is associated with that Apple ID.

  • How do I determine what xtras are needed?

    From the searching I have done it appears that xtras equired are mostly trial-and-error.
    Is there an efficient way to determine what xtras are needed for each lindividual movie?
    My programs are divided into a series of sequential movies.  At the end of each movie
    there is a goto statement to launch the next movie.  Does that require me to determine
    xtras for each separate movie? 
    In a perfect world there would be a way for Director to search a  folder for and present an aggregate list of all xtras required for that set of movies.
    If no such method exists, what is the recommended hunt and peck system?

    Thanks for the response, rduane.  But I refer to the procedures as a bit random for the reasons you mentioned in your explanation.  For example, you stated that, "Director will normally add all of the Xtras that you need to each movie as you build it".  And, yes, I know that it does add some automatically.  But, if Director really does "add all of the xtras that you need to each movie as it is built", how could I ever jump to one that is missing a needed xtra?  If it needs it, why wasn't it added when it was built?
    So, that's the reason I mentioned "trial and error", and "hunt and peck".  The system is not reliable in its handling of xtras, or which ones are needed where.  I am familiar with workarounds such as going to each movie and selecting Modify>Movies>Xtras to see which ones Director has added,  But that is all it tells you.  It does not tell you if it has added all the xtras "needed".  And when the error message comes up, it does name the missing xtra, but not which movie needs it.  So, one has to go find the named xtra and copy it over to the Xtras folder. 
    At least, that's what I do to fix it.  But I asked the question because I wanted to know if Xtras handling itself is unreliable, or if I'm doing something incorrectly.

  • How do I determine what applications are communicating using SMB?

    I would like to try to determine if there is a way to determine what applications are using SMB to communicate to the network. Any thoughts?

    Thanks Kurt. We are attempting to find the cause of the notorious two-minute spinning beachball delay. Not sure if you are aware of this problem, but it holds up Finder, Adobe InDeisgn, and other applications for two minutes while it is waiting for a response from a windows server. It shows in the log as:

    Very frustrating. While Lion seems to have fixed the issue for some users, EMC is telling us that Lion will not play nice with the Celerra share we use.

    How can I determine what computers have been authorized on my iTunes account?  I've reached my limit and now I'd like to deauthorize one computer.
    Thanks,

    There is no list.
    You can only deauthorize a single computer from that computer.
    If you do not have access to the computers, then you would have to deauthorize all.

  • How do I determine what commands are associated to Priv 2 - 14

    I don't want to create Command Authorisation sets just used a priv level. I'm having trouble determining what commands are assigned to what priv level?

    By default, there are three command levels on the router:
    privilege level 0 - Includes the disable, enable, exit, help, and logout commands.
    privilege level 1 - Normal level on Telnet; includes all user-level commands at the router> prompt.
    privilege level 15 - Includes all enable-level commands at the router# prompt
    Commands at level 2-14 are blank by default BUT you always have access to all commands at your level and below so if you are at level 4 you have access to commands at levels 0 and 1
    Hope that helps, rate if it does
