How to make Home button work properly

Hello, before my Ipod went missing, my Home button stopped working 3 months after purchasing it brand new. The home button suddenly felt weird one day and I had to press hard for it to eventually go to the home screen. Does anyone have anyone any solutions to make it work all the time. Trust me it could get really annoying.
P.S. I've never dropped it.
P.P.S. I've checked and it is a common thing with Apple products unfortunately.
P.P.P.S. I hate using the accessibility button.

  • How to make Windows Update work properly after a fresh XP Home Installation

    1. Set up Boot Camp 60 gig partition.
    2. Install full copy of Windows XP SP2 on the Boot Camp partition.
    3. Using the OSX Disk, Install the Boot Camp 2.0 Drivers for Windows.
    4. Download the Boot Camp 2.1 Update from apple.com and install it.
    5. In Windows, run the Apple Software Update.
    6. In your Windows systray, you probably have notice of "automatic software updates". Install them from the systray notification and they will install correctly.
    7. Now manually visit Windows Update. You can view all available updates but if you try to actually install any updates this way you will hang immediately at the "Downloading" status. No actual download even starts.
    This problem will persist across reboots, etc. It will occur if you try to upgrade from Windows Update to Microsoft Update, and even if you then uninstall Microsoft Update and go back to Windows Update.
    The only action that corrects this problem is to perform the following steps:
    1. In Windows, choose Start > Run and enter "msconfig".
    2. In the MS Configuration utility, choose to restart Windows in diagnostic mode. (You must perform the following step in diagnostic mode or some of the files you need to delete will be locked by some running service or whatnot.)
    3. After Windows comes up in diagnostic mode, open the C:\Windows\Software Distribution. Delete everything inside that folder (but not the folder itself).
    4. Run msconfig again and select to restart Windows in normal mode again.
    5. When Windows comes up in normal mode, it recreates the entire default contents that you just deleted in the previous step, and Windows Update will now work properly.

    I kept running into this same problem with Windows Update every single time I restarted into Boot Camp from the OSX side of things. (System Preferences > Startup Disk > select Untitled > Restart.)
    I could clear the problem every time by rebooting (while in Boot Camp) into Diagnostic mode, clearing the contents of the C:\Windows\Software Distribution folder, and then restarting back into Normal mode.
    On a hunch, one time I did not bother with the above steps, but just restarted Windows (Start > Shutdown > Restart). Whaddya know? That worked to clear the problem with Windows Update too!
    So at this point I think the root cause of the problem is something about Boot Camp itself, particularly when you first switch from OSX over to your Boot Camp partition. It is 100% repeatable that Windows Update will run and find your various uninstalled updates, but if you try to actually download any of them, the process will hang right at the start of "Downloading".
    Simply shutting down and restarting Windows while already in Boot Camp solves this problem completely.
    It's also interesting to note that if you use VMWare Fusion to run a VM of your Boot Camp partition you do not have this problem at all. Windows Update will run perfectly each and every time you run your Boot Camp version of Windows under VMWare Fusion. You only need to do this restarting of Windows if you are actually in Boot Camp.

  • How to make a Button to work Actively even if there is a mandatory field..?

    Hi All..
    How to make a Button to work Actively even if there is a mandatory field to be fulfilled..???
    I am badly in need of this logic, as i have to incorporate in my code..
    Points will be rewarded without fail..

    Hi Pavan,
    I also faced the same requirement. U can do one thing like remove the obligatory keyword of that parameter/select-option. U can handle the same using the program in at selection-screen event. See this sample of code,
    SELECTION-SCREEN BEGIN OF BLOCK b2 WITH FRAME TITLE text-001.
    SELECT-OPTIONS:  s_land1 for T005-LAND1 <b>[Needs to be mandatory]</b>                 no intervals no-extension.
    SELECT-OPTIONS:  s_panid FOR zoindex_val-zopanid.
    SELECT-OPTIONS:  s_effdat FOR zoexchrate-zedate.
    SELECTION-SCREEN END OF BLOCK b2.
    *-- AT SELECTION-SCREEN
    AT SELECTION-SCREEN.
      CASE sscrfields-ucomm.
    *-- Obligatory Country Code
      IF s_land1[] IS INITIAL.
        MESSAGE e050 WITH text-050.
                     "Please select the Country Code
      ENDIF.
    So whenever u do F8/Enter other than that push button, it will prompt u to enter the country code first then only u can proceed.
    Hope this would help u in some way. Please do reward the helpful answers.

  • YES! How to make PRINT QUOTAS WORK with 10.4

    How to make PRINT QUOTAS WORK in 10.4
    After struggling for quite some time, I finally found a pretty simple way to make print quotas work.
    First, I’ll tell you our setup. We have 3 different computer centers with a variety of eMacs and new Intel iMacs, all clients are running 10.4.8, and each of those 3 centers has its own HP Laserjet 4200 printer. Our dual G5 server is running Server v.10.4.8. Client computers and printers have static IP addresses. All clients are bound to the server with the standard WorkGroup Manager/ LDAPv3 Directory Access scheme - such that all students login to the clients with their network username/password to mount their home directory on the client.
    Next, I’ll tell you what does not work. IF YOU WANT PRINT QUOTAS TO WORK, you cannot use Workgroup Manager to assign a printer to any managed user account, user group, or computer group. Why? Because when you go to a client, and Show Info on the printer that is being pushed by Workgroup Manager, you’ll see that the queue name is not the queue that you’ve setup in Server Admin. Instead, you’ll see the queue name is “MCX” or something along those lines. Even if you manually edit the Workgroup print preference file that is being pushed to clients, it still will not work.
    Drawbacks of my technique: In my case, students will see all 3 printers (1 from each lab) available to them no matter which lab they are in. Not the best, but for now I think it’ll be worth it to be able to control wasteful printing. Students may be able to move/delete the preference file (see below), but they’ll only be hurting themselves, as they won’t have any printers at all then.
    Okay, here’s how I did it:
    1. If you have setup any printers to be pushed out via Workgroup Manager’s preference enforcement to individual users, usergroups, or computer groups, turn those preferences off and leave them off.
    2. Delete any existing printers in your Printer Setup Utility and/or Server Admin. Add and setup a new printer queue using the Server Admin> Print service. I added the printer through the Server Admin application, not Printer Setup Utility (may not matter). However, I did go into that latter utility to set the model of the printer. Now, back in Server Admin, edit the printer queue to turn on these services IPP, LPR (bonjour off), and of course check off the enforce quotas box. (No student Windows clients, so I didn’t tinker with SMB print service). I went ahead and specified the standard cover sheet – it will be handy while troubleshooting.
    3. In Workgroup Manager, select the users that you want to enforce quotas upon, go to the Printer Quota tab (not the preference pane) and, in my case, I selected All Queues and specified a quota, and clicked Save.
    4. Delete all printers that appear in the Printer Setup Utility from each client computer (I know, UGH).
    5. For all network users, you need to edit a preference file and put it into each user’s home directory. That file is “com.apple.print.favorites.plist” and as you guessed, it needs to go into the Library> Preferences folder of every one of your network users’ home directories. Now, the content of that file is crucial… what it should show is the name of the queue(s) you created in Server Admin above, and be immediately followed by an “@” and the address of the server that is hosting that queue. For example, my queue’s name is TCStudentQ and the server’s address is student.mydomain.org… so my preference file has this entry: [email protected]. If you have more than one queue, you’ll have more entries. Be sure that the network user has at least Read level access under Group or Others. I’d recommend making the server System account the Owner of the file, and be sure to lock the file so the users can’t easily trash it. If you don’t know how to create this file in the first place, what you can do is go to a client computer, and log into the client with a dummy network account. Then open Printer Setup Utility, and you should see the queue you created in step 2. Add that printer, and then the file will be created in your dummy account’s home directory under Library> Preferences. Now you can use that file to distribute to other user’s folders… but don’t forget that each user needs Read level access.
    6. That’s it. Works for me. When they exceed the quota, all that spits out is the cover page. It’d be nice if there was a quota monitor utility on the client side so users can see how many pages they have remaining and when the quota will automatically reset. I plan to start the quota on a Monday morning and go on a weekly duration. Not sure what a good starting point is… perhaps 25 pages every school week.
    7. Hey Apple Computer, Inc. Server Developers & Project Managers, I truly hope you’re reading this and can explain why print quotas don’t function as you have documented and advertised. I don’t mean to toot my own horn, but I’ve spent way too much time discovering this workaround, and I know it will help thousands of others with the same problem. I can see where your Print Quota system breaks down, and I think you need to fix these issues or at least document them. Don’t forget to fix serious 10.4 Server bugs before leaving it behind for 10.5 Server – many of us will continue using 10.4 Server for at least another year or two.

    David,
    Your assumption that I didn't read the documentation is incorrect. I read that 10.4 documentation over and over - followed it to the letter to no avail. Perhaps it was updated in the last few weeks? So, do you have a fully operable printer quota system in conjunction with a managed computer or user group that has a managed printer pushed to the group via Workgroup Manager? I can push a managed printer to a managed group without a problem, but the quotas won't be enforced unless I use the workaround above and cut Workgroup Manager's managed/pushed printer out of the picture.
    I know this is a user-to-user forum - however, I'm also aware that Apple tech support often chime in here, so it doesn't hurt to post a message to them in the context of a larger posting about a 'known issue'. I have used the server feedback form... hasn't seemed to me to be very helpful in the past.

  • How to make a button to search something in sql

    I am trying to make a button that can search for something like for example if like say i type yes, it will show me things that is under yes.But I am not sure how to make the code work as I cannot change the php code as it is under the requirement that I make the button work and not using the php code to make it work which means that I cannot type the yes to show the information and the button must somehow have the "yes" in the function to show the information.Please help me and Thanks for your help.
    This is my flash code.
    package  {
      import flash.display.MovieClip;
      import flash.net.NetConnection;
      import flash.net.Responder;
      import flash.events.MouseEvent;
      public class main extends MovieClip {
      var gateway:NetConnection;
      var responder:Responder;
      public function main() {
      gateway = new NetConnection();
      gateway.connect("http://localhost:8088/amfphp/gateway.php");
      responder = new Responder(OnPass,OnError);
      showAlBtn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,doAvailable);
      function doAvailable(evt:MouseEvent):void
      gateway.call("Books.getBooksAvailable",responder);
      function OnPass(res:Object):void
       var i:int;
      albumDG.removeAll();
      for (i=0;i<res.length;i++)
      albumDG.addItem(res[i]);
      function OnError(res:Object):void
      trace("Error");
    .This is the code for the php code that works because I already tested it out because it allows me to type yes and it shows me the required information that I need and it is not tested on flash cs6 but on local host things that allows me to test it out.
    function getBooksAvailable($avail)
      $this->connect();
      $sql = "SELECT title as 'Book Title', author as 'Author', price as 'Price', available as 'Available'
      FROM tblbookinventory
      WHERE available ='" . $avail . "'";
      $result = mysql_query($sql, $this->_connection);
      $rows = array();
      while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result, MYSQL_ASSOC))
      array_push($rows, $row);
      return $rows;

    use the urlloader class to call your php file. 
    the php function you showed is expecting a variable ($avail)  that might accept a value of 'yes'.

  • How to make 'Cancel' button go back to page before

    Hello,
    In Oracle Sales module there a lot of pages e.g. Customer, Oppty and Lead Histories etc. Where button 'Cancel' is used. I need to create one on custom page.
    The custom page is called from update contact page and 'Cancel' button should return user back to 'update contact' page. I copied/pasted oracle code but then my 'Cancel' button returning me to Sales Dashboard page not update contact.
    My page's controller when 'Cancel' is clicked executes:
    processTargetURL(oapagecontext, null, null);
    Could you please tell me how can i get Cancel button work properly?
    thanks a lot

    Hi,
    I am not sure, but are you looking for passing information through destination URL. In the case of a 'button' (not Submitbutton), you can set the destination URL like "OA.jsp?OAFunc=<func_name>&Parameter1={@value}"
    Also if you use setForwardURL, then you can pass parameters in a Hashmap. See the syntax of Hashmap.
    public void setForwardURL(String url,
    String functionName,
    byte menuContextAction,
    String menuName,
    com.sun.java.util.collections.HashMap parameters, //note this
    boolean retainAM,
    String addBreadCrumb,
    byte messagingLevel)
    This way your requirement to send multiple parameters together can be addressed.
    Hope that helps.
    Thanks

  • How to make the buttons INVISIBLE in the Application toolbar

    Hi All,
    I have a requirement to create a button in the Application toolbar of the Module Pool Screen. The field should be made Invisible by default. and it should be displayed based on one condition.
    Could you please let me know how to make that particular button INVISIBLE. I think we can make it invisible by using EXCLUDING statement. But, How to make the button VISIBLE again when the check is satisfied.
    I found from the portal that the FM 'VIEW_SET_PF_STATUS' can be used to make a button INVISIBLE. Could anyone help me out how to pass the parameters to this Function module?
    or is there any Function Module available to make the button VISIBLE and INVISIBLE? Please help me on this issues.
    Is there any possibility to make the button VISIBLE or INVISIBLE as we do for the screen fields using LOOP AT SCREEN..?
    Thank you in advance.

  • How to make a button to stop and run a for loop?

    How to make a button to stop and run a for loop?  and if it is stopped it shall start from where i t stopped.

    Your VI has some very fundamental flaws.
    The start/stop button is outside the FOR loop, thus it will NOT get read during execution of the FOR loop, but only before the FOR loop starts. Think dataflow!
    Thus the terminal of the start/stop button belongs inside the FOR loop.
    Your FOR loop iterates 20x, which probably takes about a nanosecond. You will NOT be fast enough to reliably press the start/stop button during a specific iteration of the FOR loop.
    Your code does not "stop and run" a FOR loop (sic). The loop always spins, but executes an empty case when "Stopped". I guess that's what you actually want?
    Once you solve (2), the x indicator will contain a random value whenever you "stop".
    As soon as the 20 iterations complete, the outer while loop spin an things start over, another nanosecond later.
    Place e.g. a 500ms wait inside the FOR loop to solve this.
    Don't place terminals of indicators on top of formula nodes.
    Your formula does not produce any output, so really has no purpose.
    Use a real "stop" button to terminate the while loop (mechanical action: latch when released). Right now you are using a plain switch, which does not reset to false before the next run. This means that you need to manually reset it before running the program again.
    It is oftern useful to operate the VI in execution highlighting mode. You will immediately see that your button does not get read during execution of the FOR loop. Try it!
