How to suggest new tower location in Death Valley

The Death Valley travel season is almost over and this applies mostly to next one, in around 7 months. For some reason T-Mobile and to some degree At&t offers service near Furnace Creek. I am not sure why Verizon offers zero service there.... I mean out of all providers T-Mobile is not the one that comes to mind as the one that should offer service in fringe areas.
Neither does At&t. Its sort of embarassing to me as a Verizon customer with "the largest network" to have zero bars & be forced to use smoke signals.
The main usage of cell phones is to coordinate meeting points over large area and they help a lot in that respect. Any hand held devices are a bit out of range and / or a bit heavy to carry/ not widely adopted by others (hand held CB radio).
How does one suggest where network should be extended? Can this be based on the embarassing factor of others have it and Verizon doesn't?
For these that think this is a "fringe" market, please reazlize that in season DV is filled with people as all campsites are taken including the ones that can handle 1000+ campers. This means 1000's of people are there. I am not sure how many of these are Verizon customers... but I am sure they all are a bit dissapointed by luck of service.
As for tower placement in the valley near Furnace Creek, given the overall flatness of the area a signal could propagate for many miles. All it takes is just one tower.
When I talk above about DV I mean area around Furnace Creek... Through other small villages could get their towers as well

Please be assured that our goal is to bring Verizon Wireless coverage to any location where our customers can benefit from it and our Network Team as well as our Legal Team are always exploring the logistics involved in bringing coverage to a new market. It is not possible to bring one tower to a community and provide wireless service without having all the Network and Legal work done ahead of time. Additionally, keep in mind that certain areas may have some exclusive agreements with other wireless companies.
We understand that you would like to see Verizon Wireless coverage in certain areas; please be certain that we want to bring more coverage to more places as well.

How to suggest a new tower?

Any hints on how to suggest a new tower?
We moved to a new subdivision (Denver suburb) and get at most 1-2 bars (of 5). I work one mile closer to "civilization", surrounded by a large 15 year old subdivision, and still 1-2 bars. Incomplete, dropped calls, even if I run outside. Lived with it for 5 months, then it got worse and I finally complained; they said we're on the edge of service and a tower was down, but it has never improved. Next call they said they'd send a truck out to measure service and let me know; never happened. Next call they tried to sell me a $250 extender, then tier 2 said they'd give it to us and keep me informed; never happened. We got better reception recently in the middle of Kansas, not a sign of man in sight.
Neighbors and coworkers agree but won't call Verizon. My next move is to canvas the area with a petition. My place of work has offered land for a Verizon tower; no response. Looks like we'll have to get a house phone (can't call police/fire in an emergency), but that doesn't solve the problem at work.

Have tried to work with Verizon for two months, nada (see also my other post, "Someone posing as a Verizon rep?"). Rep says she'll call at specific time on my work land line, doesn't happen (twice). Another rep says extenders are in stock and she'll remind the tech to send me one; nothing. Eight times they have said they would do something and don't.
Now I'm told we won't be receiving an extender as promised (but they won't admit it was a lie). Does it say in their contract "Our service can be inadequate in populated areas; you will need to spend an additional $250 to use your phone."? Verizon constantly brags that their coverage is vastly superior to their competition (you've all seen their maps on TV), but their final answer to me: "You need to switch to another carrier for good service.".
I just took these pictures at work, (one mile closer to "civilization", a 15 year old neighborhood), 1 bar territory outside. I can't reliably make/receive phone calls at work (I don't have an office/phone) or home - maybe 1 of 20 calls miraculously connects and stays connected. Many incoming calls never even ring (I find out later). I get 5 bars elsewhere.
I'm done with Verizon. The only things I can think of doing: canvassing the neighborhood as mentioned, sharing these photos with their competition, reporting Verizon to the BBB, and paying for a land line at home.

How can I change the default start-up date for a new functional location?

Is there a way to change the default date when creating a functional location? Whenever we create a new functional location, there is a date populated in the start-up date field. This date is our go-live date from last year and I cannot find the location in the IMG (if there is one) to stop the date from automatically populating with the date from the superior functional location. I tried setting the field from input to required but the date still populates automatically. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to leave the start-up date field blank when creating a new functional location?

That field is generally picked up from the immediate superior FL in the hierarchy through the inheritance functionality.You will have to overwrite this date.I dont think you can clear this field through Configuration functionality.
If you are in Ecc 6.0, you could get the help of developer to use implicit enhancement to initialize the field contents.

How can I find out when new tower will be activated

A New tower is and has been standing at 37062. How to find out when it will be activated?

If you can see it in a Safe manner ) If the tower is just off the Road usually there will be a Brown style building next to it Located on the Door next to the Tower you should be able to see a Verizon Plaque.. There usually Red Silver to Red n White if you see orange then it's a at&t Tower.. The Tower could also be a Digital County Tower for Police Sheriff Fire and EMS.. as well and not a Cellphone tower..

Hi. I am using the iPhone 4S and when I'm searching for places using Google it does not automatically detect my location. How do I change this? FYI...under settings i have it set at "Use new precise locations from my device."

I want to set up my time capsule on a completely new network & location without losing the old backups. How do I do this?

I want to set up my time capsule on a completely new network & location without losing the old backups. How do I do this? I cannot find anything in the user manual.

The TC is very hard to just move.. it retains too much of the old network setup.. buried deep in the bowels of the firmware configuration files.. or even on the hard disk special partitions used by the TC.. invisible to you btw.. !!
Do a factory reset and setup from scratch.
That factory reset will have no affect on your backups.. even if you rename the TC.. not a bad things since you also want clients to respond to the new network.. simply reset TM to the new TC name and location.
See A4 here.
http://pondini.org/TM/Troubleshooting.html
Factory reset.
The Factory Reset Gen1-4.
Unplug your TC. Hold in reset. and power the TC back on.. without releasing reset for about 10sec. When the status light flashes rapidly; release it.
Be Gentle! Feel the switch click on. It has a positive feel.. add no more pressure after that.
TC will reboot after a couple of minutes with default factory settings and will wipe out previous configurations.
No files are deleted on the hard disk.. No reset of the TC deletes files.. to do that you use erase from the airport utility.
Factory reset Gen 5
Hold in reset for about 5sec until the status light flashes quickly.
If your AirPort Time Capsule still doesn’t respond, do a similar reset to the Gen1-4.
Unplug your AirPort Time Capsule .. hold in reset and power the TC back on.. without releasing the reset.. wait until status led flashes rapidly.

Creating a conditional index? How to suggest a new feature?

How can I suggest a new feature in Oracle?
Imagine a table of service requests to be processed, where a column named STATUS can be: 'N': New, 'C': Canceled or 'P': Processed. This will result in a biased distribution where 'P' will represent more than 99% of rows.
I know that Oracle accept indexes created using functions and I can create an index on decode(STATUS,'P',null,STATUS) to make index small. But it will not help a query on STATUS = 'N' condition.
I would like to create a conditional index like:
create index idx01 on service_requests (status) where status <> 'P';
In this example, only status 'N' and 'C' will be indexed resulting in a very small index that can resolve filters like STATUS = 'N'.
Or this:
create index idx01 on some_tables (column1 including null values); to resolve COLUMN1 is NULL
Is there a way to suggest new features like this?

A new feature isn't needed. Oracle provides the equivalent of that 'conditional index' by allowing you to create, and index, VIRTUAL columns.
This code uses a VIRTUAL column and then creates an index on it.
drop table test_status
create table test_status (col1 number,
status varchar2(1),
special_status generated always as (decode(STATUS,'P',null,STATUS)
create index idx01 on test_status (special_status)

New storage location created in R3- How to push to BW?

HI Friends,
Our R3 consultants created new storage location and how should i push it BW? I checked infoobject: 0Stor_loc. But this is not in 0plant as attribute . How to load the new storage location?
Regards,
Siddhu

Hi,
Storage location infoobject (0STOR_LOC) has to bring as attribute of 0PLANT. Move this from right panel to left so hat storage location will be visible in attributes of Plant.
Sometimes you can maintain as compounding attribute also. Adjust as per your requirement.
Check this once and then load data accordingly.
Also, check the relevant data in ECC before loading to BI.
Hope this helps,
Regards,
Rama Murthy.

How to change an existing site to a new local location

Hi!
Can somebody advise me ... I currently have ONE page defined with 2 spry JS functions ... I want to change wherever those files are currently being saved (since I am not sure where they are) - including the JS files) to a new local location on a drive. THEN - once I have redefined that new site - I then want to upload everything to my server.
My problem basically - the current page I have - I don't know where the files are going when they re-saved - especially the spry associated files ... so when I MANUALLY have uploaded everything - the spry widgets do not work.
Is there someway I can just redefine the current location(s) - then - everything will go to that new location???
Really appreciate anyone's advise! ~ Rick

Well ... maybe I can ask this differently. Assume I have a web page defined ... and I want to duplicate IT - to another newly defined local and remote directory.
In other words - I want to copy the entire site and it's associated files (images, Spry etc) to a newly defined folder .... if I have that site or page open - where do I go to have everything go into a new directory?
Sorry if this is a stupid questions - but I know I screwed up when I first defined the site / web page -and now - I can't get the page uploaded in it's entirety to my server. The site works great - when I view it in a browser ...
Thanks again for your quick answer and of course - PATIENCE!

How to move my entire iphoto library and all albums and mobileme galleries to my new tower?

What is the best way to move my entire iphoto library and all albums and mobileme galleries to my new tower?
I want to move it smoothly without hours of reconfiguring albums and Mobileme galleries. Already have a timemachine backup of the older iMac with the iphoto library.

Connect the two Macs together (network, firewire target mode, etc) and drag the iPhoto library intact as a single entity from the old Mac to the pictures folder of the new Mac - launch iPhoto on the new mac and it will open the library and convert it as needed and you will be ready move forward.

How to go to the location of file that I received ...

How to go to the location of file that I received on skype? I was able to do it easily in old version.
Now, I recieved the zip file. If I click on the file, it shows the Zip File View. I don't know where that file is downloaded. (of cuz, need to dip where I set the download path.) In old version of Skype, there is a link where we can open the file in windows explorere.
I would suggest that the Skype UX or development team needs to read "Don't make me think" short book.
Update: There are other people who reported the issues in 2013 http://community.skype.com/t5/Modern-Windows-from-Windows/Where-are-the-files-saved-that-someone-sen... Please don't copy all metro skype UI to skype desktop without thinking about usability and royal user expereince. Thanks!
Note: Another thing: THis forum seems like it let me post without me logging in. But when I submit the context, it redirects to login page. So, I chose to login with my account and it redirect back me to this forum and the post that I wrote a few min ago was totally gone.. Seriously?

Im trying to find the music I purchased thru Itunes...have a new tower...if u can point to where I can find my tunes..would be great..

Hi I am looking for my Itune purchased music..as this is a new tower for my computer...n if u can direct me to where I can locate my Itunes..would be appreciated...

You can copy your music from your backup of your downloads/library and add it to your new computer's iTunes via File > Add To Library, or if you have your library on another computer then you can copy it from that : How to move your iTunes library to a new computer.
Or you might (depending upon your country, if you've moved countries since buying the music, and if it's still in the store) be able to redownload it on your new computer via the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage.

How to hide new gear from your wife?

In light of a recent post ... any suggestions on how to hide new gear and make it look like you've had it for years and years .... long before you'd ever met?
Dee

I found out that it is much better to be totaly honest, If you want it go buy it, as long as you love her to death.
In a marriage your money is not really yours, and you dont have an house you leave in your wife house and even if you have a room totaly dedicated for recording with piles of electronics it is your wife room that she alow you to use until further notice.
We have tendencies to forget that when you get married we are actually owned by our wife,
The reverse dont work.
But this is good because that is how they love us. If you do great work (Songs etc...) a Women will allow you to buy what you need, they are not stupid they know we need our toys. But this is a women world the only way to freedom is extra love, When you truly love then you can do no wrong.
love is the key.....Always
