How to get my iPhone to work in the UAE

This is for anyone who knows about iPhones in the UAE
I have an iPhone 3G which was purchased in the UK and i have an O2 contract
I am going back to Abu Dhabi for holidays where the network is Etisalat. I have an old etisalat sim which which i used to use whilst i was living there.
Now that iPhone is officially released on etisalat in the UAE, technically if i put my Etisalat sim card into my iPhone 3G i should be able to use my iphone in abu dhabi, however it just comes up with no service.
is there a way to fix this?

You can not. The iPhone sold in the UK is SIM locked to the O2 network and can not be used with any other networks SIM card, even in countries where the iPhone has been released.

How to get online apps to work with the Verizon DSL modem firewall set at "Medium" level, not "Low?"

How to get online apps to work with the Verizon DSL modem firewall set at “Medium” level? Xbox 360 Live, FTP, and the Windows sntp Time checker native to Windows XP WON’T WORK unless the Verizon firewall is first reset down to “Low.” Then all works well, but I then risk low firewall protection. Setup: · Westell 6100 DSL modem (Software Version: VER:4.04.03.00 Transceiver Revision: 7.2.3.0 Model Name: C90-610015-06), · D-Link DIR-655 wireless router (Hardware Version: A3, Firmware Version: 1.21), For Xbox 360 Live the “canned” port forwarding rule for provided in Verizon’s drop-down list for the Westell 6100 modem forwards ports 88 and 3074 for both TCP and UDP. This does not meet Microsoft’s forwarding recommendations for Xbox 360 Live stated at http://support.microsoft.com/kb/908874. Instead, for the Verizon modem (Westell) I made a new port forwarding rule to comply with those Microsoft instructions. It forwards ports 53, 80 and 3074 for TCP and ports 53, 88 and 3074 for UDP. These same ports are also forwarded in the D-Link router configuration. For FTP, port 21 is also forwarded for TCP and UDP in both modem and router. But they don’t work until I first cripple the Verizon firewall down to “Low.” How to get them to work with the Verizon firewall up to Medium?

While I do not know the answer to your question, BUT since you have this modem and another router - you could just follow.

How to get my Addon to work with the license key?

Hi,
Can someone tell me how to get the Addon to work with the license key?
I've follow the steps as stated in this thread:
[Re: SBO 2005 A - How do I get a Connection string from SAP B1.|Re: SBO 2005 A - How do I get a Connection string from SAP B1.]
1) i've registered a BASIS key and get a 'BASISXXXXXX" string
2) then i paste my BASIS key in "Solution" of Add-On Indentifier Generator and generate the Add-On Indentifier Code
3) then i paste the string to my source code
which is the "XXX" of the sample code in that thread.
static string AddonIdentifierString="XXX";
int lRetCode=0;
int errCode=0;
string errMsg= string.Empty;
string connectionStr ="";
link = new SAPbouiCOM.SboGuiApiClass();
connectionStr =Environment.GetCommandLineArgs().GetValue(1).ToString();
link.AddonIdentifier=AddonIdentifierString;
link.Connect(connectionStr);
oApp = link.GetApplication(-1);
vCompany = new SAPbobsCOM.CompanyClass();
string cookie = vCompany.GetContextCookie();
string conStr = oApp.Company.GetConnectionContext(cookie);
vCompany.SetSboLoginContext(conStr);
lRetCode = vCompany.Connect();
4) then i add my add-on using manager role at Add-on admin
5) then i can see my add-on there. it not suppose to be there since i've not installed any of my add-on license for my own add-on.
what steps did i miss? Can someone please advise? Thanks
ps : i'm coding in VB

Hi,
i think you have to change the license file attributing the number of licensing for your addon, then download it from https://websmp202.sap-ag.de/smb and then install it on SAP License manager, then I think you should give the license for your addon for individual users (example manager)
I hope it helps.
Best regards

Help - How to get our PF keys working on the web?

We just successfully built a 9iAS server on a W2K platform - it was quick, easy and works perfectly with simple FORMS. However, the main FORM product we want to move from client/server to the web uses function keys -i.e F8, and these just don't function in the web environment. We've checked all the documention, even ghoing back to OAS and WebDB manuals, with no luck.
Apparently we've missed something in the 9iAS setup, or need something else on the client. THe clients run IE5.x, with the latest Microsoft VM package that shows Java COnsole.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Richard Staron

look for FMRWEB.RES in your server is the key definition file for WEBFORMS

How to get custom graphics to work with the animator object

I Have a costom graphic that I wish to have change color depending the position of a Pot, and have tried using the animator object. However the animator object fails to change color when the pot is moved, when i replace the costom graphic with a standard one (a pipe) the color changes perfectly. The costom graphic is in wmf format so it should work. what am i doing wrong or is this just not possible?

Hello,
That's a little odd. Did you trying playing with the Gray Proximity settings? If it's not too difficult maybe you can create various colored versions of your graphic and use the Multistate object instead.
Is it possible to post the picture here so we can try?
Regards,
Khalid

Are you using the earbuds that came with the iPhone? If you are using other earphones, it's possible that they need an adaptor to work with the iPhone's recessed headphone jack.

HT4623 how can i get my iphone to work without itunes

how can i get my iphone to work without itunes

You don't need a computer at all to activate and use a phone running iOS 5 or 6.
Turn it on, go through the activation steps on screen, and you're up and running.
Are you having some kind of problem you'd like help with, or is this just a hypothetical question?

I suggest contacting your carrier, typically if there is an issue with caller id its an issue with the carrier.

How can I get my iphone to stop losing the signal?

How can I get my iphone to stop losing the signal?

Thanks for the tip. If only I could find somewhere where I did not lose the signal.
I am based in the United Kingdom. The carrier is Orange.
I lose the signal inside buildings and outside of buildings. It happens at work and at home. It happens in Centarl London in the open air and inside. It happens in small towns.. It happens in the countryside. It happens in motor cars. It happens in airports. It happens when the battery is fully charged, when it is half charged and when it's low on charge. It happens using the phone, when reading messages and when using the internet.
Hope this helps.

How do I get iTunes 11 to work as the old iTunes did in this respect: after playing a song in one playlist, I click on another playlist, highlight a song, press play, and get the result of that song playing & that playlist continuing?

How do I get iTunes 11 to work as the old iTunes did in this respect: after playing a song in one playlist, I click on another playlist, highlight a song, press play, and get the result of that song playing & that playlist continuing? As it goes now, one clicks on the song in the new playlist where the arrow is and then chooses 'Play Song Next.' So, it plays next, but then the song after that is back in the old playlist. I want to use iTunes smoothly without the extra clicks I've had to do in order to get the playlist to continue. This is music for background while I play the violin at restaurants, and extra clicks and hassle is quite unappreciated, especailly since it worked fine in the previous iTunes.
Thanks.

At the top of the playlist where it shows the playlist title and the number of songs, there are two icons. Click the "play" triangle to add the entire playlist to "Up Next", or the "shuffle" symbol to do the same thing but in random order. But the currently playing track will stop playing, and all the songs in "Up Next" will be removed (replaced by the ones from this playlist).
If you hold down the "option" key while clicking those icons, the currently playing song will continue playing, and the new playlist will be added to "Up Next" (above the songs that were already there).

Update to kichat: FAQ 2 - How to get my router to work with iChat?

kichat: FAQ 2 - How to get my router to work with iChat? December 2008 version 3
(Note to Hosts. to be removed on acceptance. Please use this to replace http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=121775 )
Getting your router started with iChat.
Appropriate for using iChatAV 2 upwards. Edits have been made for iChat 4
Glossary for this FAQ
Routers: Any configurable device that sits between your computer and the internet link you have. This includes Modems that Route as well as "routers"
Routers seem to fall into two categories
Those that work straight from the box. See Apple Article HT1787
NOTE :This Article has not been updated in content since Jan 04 Only being changed to an Article from the Previous Doc listing
Even then some list that they need tweaks.
and those that do not.
This post will deal with what you may need to look at.
First off make sure your device is acting as a DHCP server. (if you are already on the internet you may not have to bother with this.)
Check in the Tiger System Preferences > Network Preference Pane, in the "Built in Ethernet" option from the "Show" drop down list.
In Leopard the Networks are listed on the left with icons. The Airport Option will need you to access the Advance Button for the Next bit.
Make sure the TCP/IP tab is the 'front' one. You should be able to see Configure IPv4 and it most likely reads Using DCHP. Make a note of your IP address. It will start 10.xxx.xxx.xxx or 192.168.xxx.xxx (the 'x' s will stand for any number between 1 and 255). The range 172.16.xxx.xxx is also a possible value at this point. Rarely used, but it is part of the RFC for Address Allocation for Private Internets.
Your router is most likely to be configurable from your browser. You will need to find the IP address to type into the browser from any Readme or PDF files that came on the install disk or visit the makers website and download a manual.
The Port Forward.com site lists many devices and clicking on one will take you to a list of Applications. This iChat will open an page that will start by telling you the defaults to access the device
Opening or Allowing ports. Several Methods not all devices have all of them.
DMZ (Demilitarised Zone)
This is a less secure setting that basically opens all ports and points the incoming data to your computer. (not helpful if you have more than one computer on your LAN). It can be considered as an extreme form of Port Forwarding
Port Forwarding (also Virtual Server or Pin Holes)
These settings are usually found in an Advanced setting.
You may need to set an incoming IP address (Usually 0.0.0.0 to any outside server), a port that data will arrive on, the Inside computer's IP address (your computer) and the port it will deal with the data on and the protocol it will use.
See this pic for an example of the description above.
In this example shows that on some Port AND Protocols need to be listed.
iChat uses TCP and UDP so some devices will need the ports listed one by one and some settings done twice, once for each protocol. The example above has a "Both" setting
See Apple Article HT1507 Previously Doc 93208 for more information. This is the Tiger iChat 3 list. The same ports are needed for Leopard except for these changes
My Note 2:
On the first link Note 1 under tables in that link would be better if it read:
" 1. All iChat AV traffic is UDP -
except for ports 5190 and 5298, which need to be open for both TCP as well;
and 5220, 5222, which need to be open for TCP only. "
Note 2
GoggleTalk needs port 5223 on TCP. Also note the Server name for iChat 3 set ups
UPnP Universal Plug n Play.
This is a simple Plug and Play type of setting. iChat can find it's own way through a router if the device has this capability.
By Not doing Port Forwarding, Triggering or DMZ and enabling UPnP the application is allowed to control the modem and the ports that are open.
They close after the application has finished with them on a timed basis.
On some devices the number of "hops" (how far away the UPnP can be "seen") can be reduced from a default of 4)
Trigger Ports
Some devices offer a security measure that works by a first or trigger port receiving a data packet and then opening further ports when accepted.
The first port for incoming Video or Audio invites is port 5678.
Pre iChat 4
When you click on the invite window the process moves in to port 5060 (so these will need to be opened by the trigger port) for negotiating the final group of ports from the group of 20 (16384-16403 These will need to open when the trigger says so as well). Therefore port 5678 triggers ports 5678, 5060, 16384-16403. All on UDP. Port 5190 neeeds to trigger port 5190 for both TCP and UDP.
See this variation where only the ports listed above are completed.
The other single ports need to be set one by one in addition. (5220,5222, 5223 5297, 5298, 5353)Replace
iChat 4
The port used in IChat 4 is port 16402 instead of port 5060. The group of 20 ports is reduced to 10 (16393-16402). This is because all the In and Out Audio and Video data is on one port. Other that than the settings are the same.
At this time there is no Info on the ports the Screen Sharing in iChat 4 uses.
Wireless
Here you will have to read around but this Apple Article TA25949 Previously Doc 58514 might be a good starting place.
Essentially whether you are wireless or Ethernet to your routing device makes very little difference to the way you do things.
Your computer will get two IPs from a DHCP server if you are connected by both methods. (iChat does not like this)
Multiple devices
Make sure only one is acting as a DHCP server. Make sure wireless devices are bridged properly.
