How to force the "Bluetooth Communications Port" to be one of COM1 to COM8 ports?

Dear Lenovo Community, Happy Holidays to you all and wish you a great happy new year. Recently purchased a Bluetooth OBDII device and have difficulty making it to work with its provided software on my T61 (running original XP Home). My short story and question/problem is that I can open "My Bluetooth Places" and pair with the OBDII device as an "OBDII SPP Dev", but my T61 assigns serial port COM19 to it. The OBDII software which came with the device only can let user set to one of the COM1 to COM8 ports and in the properties of Bluetooth pairing, there is no way that I can select which COM port to use. I looked at the Device Manager and I do see these COM port assignments: COM4,5,6,7: Sierra Wireless (the HSDA modem in the laptop which I have never used BTW) COM 9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17: Bluetooth Serial Port COM 18, 19: Bluetooth Communications Port and I don't see anything for COM1,2,3, and 8 My question is how to force the computer/OS to assign one of the COM1 to COM8 ports to my device upon pairing? Can I disable the Sierra Wireless model from the COM ports list and hope this will happen? Thanks for your help and inputs beforehand. Regards, AL

Hi, AL_K
Have you attempted to change the port number in device manager itself? If you navigate to Device Manager and open the list of Ports, you can right-click on the device you wish to assign a different port number. After right-clicking, click Properties. There should be a tab called Port Settings. In here, you should find a setting to manually assign a port number.
Good luck, and let me know how it goes,
Adam

I want to use serial port to commnucation between pc and hb34970. In gpib mode, it is ok. But in serial mode, report error. just like this:
for setting com2:
16:11:47.359 2009-8-26 [Init_dq_Device]error:-1073807339--HP34970A Initialize.vi->Init_DQ_Device.vi->main_app.vi VISA read.visa name:ASRL2::INSTR

Hi, Dennis Knutson
very glad to see you.
For my vi, i only provide a UI for user to select GPIB or serial mode, and setting related port.
About "Also, the 34970 llb you are using should be replaced with the 8.x project library.", What do you
mean? There is a new driver for 34970,right?
I search the forum and find a old thread:Agilent 34970 Visa Timeout.
There is your answer:
I made a mistake. The initialize function already had a timeout function. I just didn't look at the VI closely enough. There is a case statement that sets either the serial port parameters or just sets the VISA timeout. If you are setting the timout right after the VISA Open, it's just getting set back to 10 seconds. Change it in the case statement and see if that works. Sorry, and I hope this works.
Do you think this is the same with my problem? Your mean to modify default 10 seconds to more longer timeout,right?
Thanks.

How to prolong the bluetooth timeout session on ipad and iphone

how to prolong the bluetooth timeout session on ipad and iphone?
I understannd that the standard timeout setting is 3 mins. what if I want to prolong the connection duration, how should I do?
thanks

To my knowledge, there is no "time out" on a device. A mouse, KB, etc will go into a low power mode after a short period of non-use.

How to change the bluetooth name? in my pc,

Hi there!
How to change the Bluetooth name for my N70.
I can change it in my N70, but the first installed name still pops up on my computer. Can't find it anywhere so i can have the same name in my phone as on the computer. Is there some kind of registry that keeps the first name maybe??
Any ideas?
Owned: Nokia 1600 - 3120 - 5110 - 6110 - 7110 - 6310i - N70 - N72.
Using now: 6310i & N70 - N72

I am not sure about how to change SERVICE_NAME in PL/SQL Developer (if at all it can be done in that ), but you will have to change the SERVICE_NAME in the TNSNAMES.ORA file.
1. Locate the entry for PLSExtProc in the file tnsnames.ora at:
$ORACLE_HOME/network/admin/tnsnames.ora
2. Change the SERVICE_NAME = ORCL
3. Save and reconnect

How to force the Netscape Browser to open the "Open or Save" dialog box?

Hi, I tried to force the browser to open the "Open or Save" dailog box for downloading a file.
response.setContentType(context.getMimeType(file.getName()));
response.setHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment; filename=\"" + file.getName() + "\"");
This works fine with IE for all file types( Even though he prompts twice to Open the file directly). but Netscape opens the file directly in the browser with showing any dialog box for text and html files. Anyone knows how to force the netscape in this case or for any file type? Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks

any one has the solution for this issue ? I tried the search and I didnt find any answer.
when your trying to open a pdf file as attachment is seperate window, it works well in IE but in netscape it opens up in the same browser, it doesnt open a seperate window
res.setContentType( "application/pdf" );
res.setHeader("Content-Disposition","attachment; filename=\"" + cofcFileName+"\"");

How to Force the Good Plan present in dba_hist_sql_plan for an SQL_ID

Hi Folks
Here i have a question on how to fix the query execution plan for which we are facing the problem. The current execution plan of the SQL ID is bad , but the execution plan in dba_hist_sql_plan or v$sql_plan is showing good one's.
So how to force the plan_hash_value present in dba_hist_sql_plan or v$sql_plan to the current sql. Where in we cannot try using any kind of hints in the SQL so my question here , is there any way to update manually to update the plan_hash_value for the SQL_ID so that it can use the execution plan which we want to force.
Regards,
Phani.

But my question is i have the good plan for the SQL_ID which is now running with the bad plan ( I am able to see the good plan in dba_hist_sql_plan view ) , my challenge here is how to force >the SQL_ID to take good plan PLAN_SQL_HASH_VALUE. Once the query is parsed and in memory I'm not aware of any way of changing the plan :(
A day later a similar situation came up with one of our clients. I'm still not aware of any way to manually change the execution plan of an already parsed SQL but suspect histograms and/or bind peeking may be a way to explain this phenemenon

Hi
Thanks, that will work, but then I'll have to insert code into all my reports.
I can see that "Application Server Control Console" is able to rerun a report.
This must mean that the Report Server has access to the runtime parameters.
But how?

"com1.com" -> "vp.com1.com" -> "server group" -> "Directory Server(VP)"
Then open "Direbory Server(VP)" -> click tab "Directory"
Got a tree as following:
vp.com1.com(389) --> dc=com1,dc=com
o=NetscapeRoot
Now I wanna create a new entries, which is "dc=com2,dc=com"
How to do?
I had checked almost all the related doc but failed to get the valuable info.
Would you like to do me a favour? Or forward me some reference?

Thank you.

You can log out of an account (you can't 'cancel' an account) by tapping on it in Settings > iTunes & App Store - any content that you downloaded with that account will remain tied to that account. You can then create a new account via the Create New Apple ID button on that screen. If you don't want to give credit card details then follow the instructions on this page when creating the new account : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534

How to force the request to be ssl

Hi,
I have wls7.0 with plugin, and ssl is installed on web server, how can I enforce
the request be under ssl?
Thanks

The webserver might allow to specify which files can be accessed via which port.
This would depend on the webserver you are using.
You might want to crosspost this in weblogic.developer.interest.plugin group as
well.

How I got the Bluetooth Magic mouse and Aluminum keyboard to work in XP

NOTE: The following steps fixed my issue. I thought I would share what worked for me but I really don't ever visit these discussion groups. I used a combination of Sysinternal tools to isolate what was causing my issue and rectified it.
I couldn't for the life of me get the bluetooth magic mouse and keyboard working in a bootcamp'd windows xp. Here are the steps that I performed to finally get it to work. The assumptions are that you are running a clean XP build with SP3 and all windows updates installed.
1. Using a USB mouse and keyboard. Insert the OS X install disc into the drive and run through the bootcamp drivers install. (These steps are outlined at Page 12 in the Apple Boot Camp Installation Guide: http://manuals.info.apple.com/en/bootcampinstall-setup.pdf). Let the installers run per apple instructions in the bootcamp installation guide. At the end it will want to reboot. Reboot the system.
2. After the system reboots login and run the Apple Software Update utility to update from bootcamp 3.1 to 3.2. It will run through a bunch of installers and ask to reboot at the end. Reboot.
3. After the system reboots login and go to start=>run and type "services.msc" to bring up the services control panel.
4. Double-click the "Bluetooth Support Service" to open the properties.
5. Go to the "log on" tab and look to see what is set. If it is set to "NT Authority\LocalService" then click above it to change to "Local System account." Then click "OK." It will tell you the changes won't take effect until the service is restarted. No worries.
6. You will be back in the main services control panel. Make sure the "Bluetooth Support Service" is highlighted and look up to the left and select "restart the service."
7. Close all the open windows and then go to start=>run and type "control panel" and hit enter.
8. Double-click the "Bluetooth devices" control panel applet and follow the Apple instructions provided on Page 18 of the guide referred to earlier. Start with the mouse first. Stop when done with the mouse and don't continue on to the keyboard yet.
9. At this point my mouse was "installed" but did not show "connected" in the bluetooth devices applet. I then highlighted the mouse and clicked the "properties" button down to the right.
10. Once in the properties of the mouse I selected the "services" tab. My issue before making the switch to "Local System" account for the Bluetooth services was then when I tried to click the check box to enable "Drivers for keyboard, mice, etc (HID)" I would get an "access denied" error. Now that the switch has been made you should be able to click that check box without error. Click OK after enabling.
11. You will suddenly see systray (lower right of the screen where the clock is) saying that new hardware has been detected and enabled. Once this is all done you will see "connected" below the device in the Bluetooth applet. Give your mouse a go. It should be working now. Sweet!
12. Follow the steps in the Apple guide for your keyboard. This should work too now. Sweet!
Best of luck.

It depends on how far it is and how thick your walls are. If there plasterboard partitions and only 10 feet apart then probably.
If you have a mobile phone with bluetooth, then try sending the computer a picture of file from similar distances to that you intend using the keyboard, if it works then a bluetooth keyboard and mouse should.

Hi,
You canr use text modules in script. You have to use standard texts .
Standard text are maintained in SO10 transaction.
you can create translation text for other languages also . So based on logon language it will print translation text.
go to SO10
give textname it say Ztextname id as ST and language as EN
say create, then you will get editor there maintain your text and save it . then come back . Now change language (say for german DE) say create and eneter translation text and save it.
so now you have created a text called ztextname which you can use in your script.
Inorder to insert the texts in your script do as below
go to any window editor and select path
Insert->texts->symbols->standard symbols
then you will get popup in which you have to mention all the parameters that you have created earlier.
after inserting just change language EN to sy-langu
Reward points if useful
