How to tell if the nano has a defective screen...

Ok, earlier today I had my iPod nano in my pocket with NOTHING EXCEPT THE IPOD NANO IN IT (not even headphones!). The iPod nano was in the iSee nano case and also had the decal girl crystal shield under it. I was wearing my favourite pants. They are very baggy and have huge pockets. Anyway, I was walking with the nano in my pocket for about 1 minute, and I didn't sit down. I pulled it out, and what do you know? The screen is cracked. A yucky blacky thing was in the bottom right hand corner. It looked like spilled ink (as another poster said a while ago). I turned the nano on, and the blacky thingy grew a bit and turned pixalized. The top of the screen just had a blue bar. The bottom of the screen showed a lighter blue bar. I could barely make out the menu items "Settings" and "Shuffle songs" through the bar. The total right hand side of the screen is either white of covered with the blob.
Here are some pictures. Note that the scratches are not on the nano, but they are actually on the iSee.

I contacted apple and they said that they were going to send me a box within 2 days to my house. I put the nano in and then they will decide whether to fix it or not. What I want to know is how can I tell if I really do have a defective screen? I've heard that if your screen cracks from the inside, then it is defective. If you drop your nano/put your car keys next to it and it cracks, it is your fault.
I think I have a defective one. The case itself emerged unharmed, with no new scratches (I still have yet to figure out how so many scratches could collect on the iSee nano case in little over a week). There is no dent in the case, because I didn't actually hit anything. I think my nano must be defective. According to apple's website, my nano's approximate date of purchase was October 18.
The thin clear layer of whatever it is that covers the nano screen is not cracked. Some part of the nano is cracked though. I think it is defective. How else could it crack without harming the case or the thin invisible layer or whatever without me dropping it.
Judging from this, can you tell me if it is faulty, or if it isn't faulty?

That is so stupid. Any additional pressure......
I can't believe this. When I first got the nano, I thought my only problem would be scratching, so it's been paired with a case and a screen protector since I got it. I never thought cracking would be a problem.
And why did they have to make it so thin anyways? Screw the 1GB nano, make a nano around the .33 inches thickness of a shuffle. The nano will now not crack or scratch, and I will have nothing to complain about.
I know that during the first 14 days from the date of purchase, you can get a refund on your nano. If I do get a new nano back, will I be able to get a refund, or not? The original iPod (the cracked one next to my computer) was engraved with my name. On the online form I asked apple not to engrave it, to speed up the process. My warranty will not restart, but will my date of purchse? I really want to refund this nano and forget about it. Screw the screen protectors and cases. I'll give them to my cousin. Her nano is scratched like ****.

    Since the only thing needed in that box is the small piece of paper with the (very long) registration code on it (usually found inside the booklet), see if that is actually there and, if it is, call Apple at 800-275-2273 and ask to be transferred to the Applecare department.

    The time capsule though blinks amber and the Airport Utility shows blinking amber light and has a red circle with the number 1 in it.
    There is an error.. probably trivial.. firmware update, default password..
    Open the airport utility and find out what the error is.
    Simply click the TC and see status in the summary page.. it will list all the errors and what you should do.. fix or ignore them. ie this TC has an error.. default password.. I chose to ignore.. when I "fix" the problem the LED goes green.
    Here is additional TC.. it is blinking amber with faults.
    Click the fault. eg default password.
    You can ignore or edit .. if you click edit it will take you to the full setup where you can change the settings.
    I ignored my errors and now it is green..

  • [Forum FAQ] How to tell if the DAC port is automatically changed or not

    Introduction
    Per Books Online:
    http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms189595.aspx
    SQL Server listens for the DAC on TCP port 1434 if available or a TCP port dynamically assigned upon Database Engine startup.
    Also, we can go to the following registry to specify the DAC port number manually:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL11.MSSQLSERVER\MSSQLServer\SuperSocketNetLib\AdminConnection\Tcp
    The error log contains the port number the DAC is listening on. Besides looking at the error log, how to find which port is used by DAC connection and how to tell if the DAC port is manually set by us or assigned automatically by SQL Server?
    Solution
    The following query can be used to check if there is an existing DAC connection and it also give us the port number used by dedicated admin connection.
    SELECT name,local_tcp_port FROM sys.dm_exec_connections ec
    join sys.endpoints e
    on (ec.endpoint_id=e.endpoint_id)
    WHERE e.name='Dedicated Admin Connection'
    Here is the scenario to test if the DAC port is automatically changed or not.
    There are two instances are running on one server. I specified the same DAC port number 5555 for the two SQL Server instances by modifying the registry
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL11.MSSQLSERVER\MSSQLServer\SuperSocketNetLib\AdminConnection\Tcp
    Opened the DAC connection to instance 1. Executed the above query, it returns the result:
    name                                                  
    local_tcp_port
    Dedicated Admin Connection               5555
    Then, opened a DAC connection to instance 2. It throw out the following error message:
    Sqlcmd: Error: Microsoft SQL Server Native Client 11.0 : Client unable to establish connection because an error was encountered during handshakes before login.
    Common causes include client attempting to connect to an unsupported version of SQL Server, server too busy to accept new connections or a resource limitation (memory or maximum allowed connections) on the server..
    Sqlcmd: Error: Microsoft SQL Server Native Client 11.0 : TCP Provider: An established connection was aborted by the software in your host machine..
    Sqlcmd: Error: Microsoft SQL Server Native Client 11.0 : Client unable to establish connection.
    Sqlcmd: Error: Microsoft SQL Server Native Client 11.0 : Client unable to establish connection due to prelogin failure.
    The above error message was thrown out because the DAC port number 5555 was not available for instance 2 which was occupying by instance 1. After restarting the SQL Server engine service of instance 2, if checking in the registry, you would see a new DAC port
    number has been assigned to the second instance.
    Then, the DAC connection to instance 2 succeed this time and executed the above query, it returned the same port number which is same as the one in the registry key and the port number was assigned automatically.
    DAC port will not change even SQL Server service is restarted only if the TCP port is available.

  • How to tell if a user has logged in to teststand

    I am using a custom LV UI. I would like to know if there is a way to tell if the user has clicked the cancel button on the standard TS login. I would like to keep using the standard TS login if possible.
    Thanks
    Joe.
    "NOTHING IS EVER EASY"

    Hi Joe,
    Unfortunately, the default TestStand login code uses a TestStand engine method (DisplayLoginDialog) to handle this dialog box.  The method returns a user object based on the user's selections, and cannot be modified.  However, a clone of theTestStand login code developed in LabVIEW can be downloaded from the developer zone.  This set of VIs does not use this method, and will allow you to configure what data is returned by the dialog.The files can be downloaded here:

    Let me know if you need any help configuring this code, and I'll be happy to help!

  • How to check if the user has log in when he log in again?

    Hi all,
    I was wondering how to track if the user has already log in?
    When this user using browser A to log in then he try to log in using a new browser, then hw I am I going to know that, and terminate his session?

    Hello!
    You can try this code if you want that if a user is login at a machine and tries to login from the other, then he can continue his processing at second machine ('cos it will get the high priority) but can not process from the first machine. This code allows to login but only second one will be active.
    <jsp:useBean id="monitor1" scope="application" class="java.util.HashMap"/>
    if(monitor1.containsKey(num)){
    HttpSession oldSession = (HttpSession) monitor1.get(num);
    oldSession.invalidate();
    monitor1.remove(num);
    monitor1.put(num , session);
    But if you want to restrict it at the time of second login then u can use any of the techniques discussed above.

  • How to check if the user has only the display authority of a message

    hi,
    How to check if the user has only the display authority of a message but does not have the change authority for a certain message?
    Best regards,

    hi blake
    though i am an application consultant and for authorisation u need to have help of BASIS person if u r not the one but still i can guide u regarding the same,
    Basically Authorization Management 
    Use
    You can use the following authorization objects to control the authorizations for maintaining business partner data:
    •        Authorization objects for the Business Partner:
    •     &#61601;        B_BUPA_GRP
    •     &#61601;        B_BUPA_ATT
    •     &#61601;        B_BUPA_FDG
    •     &#61601;        B_BUPA_RLT•       
    Authorization objects for relationships:
    •     &#61601;        B_BUPR_BZT
    •     &#61601;        B_BUPR_FDG
    In addition, you can assign an authorization group to a business partner in the dialog. The authorization group controls which users may maintain data for this business partner.
    You can also define authorizations for fields and field groups using the Business Data Toolset (BDT). Depending on the settings you have made, the system carries out the relevant authorization checks.
    In the dialog in the SAP GUI, you can display an overview of the authorizations assigned to you by pressing the button Settings.
    For more information on authorization management, see the Implementation Guide (IMG) of the Business Partner, as well as in the Developer’s Handbook for the BDT under  Authorizations.
    IntegrationAuthorization management for the Business Partner forms part of the  SAP authorization concept.
    Prerequisites
    You have made the necessary settings in Customizing of the Business Partner under Basic Settings--> -Address Management.
    Moving over
    AS ABAP Authorization Concept 
    The ABAP authorization concept protects transactions, programs, and services in SAP systems from unauthorized access. On the basis of the authorization concept, the administrator assigns authorizations to the users that determine which actions a user can execute in the SAP system, after he or she has logged on to the system and authenticated himself or herself.
    To access business objects or execute SAP transactions, a user requires corresponding authorizations, as business objects or transactions are protected by authorization objects. The authorizations represent instances of generic authorization objects and are defined depending on the activity and responsibilities of the employee. The authorizations are combined in an authorization profile that is associated with a role. The user administrators then assign the corresponding roles using the user master record, so that the user can use the appropriate transactions for his or her tasks.
    Authorization Checks 
    To ensure that a user has the appropriate authorizations when he or she performs an action, users are subject to authorization checks.
    The following actions are subject to authorization checks that are performed before the start of a program or table maintenance and which the SAP applications cannot avoid:
    •        Starting SAP transactions (authorization object S_TCODE)
    •        Starting reports (authorization object S_PROGRAM)
    •        Calling RFC function modules (authorization object S_RFC)
    •        Table maintenance with generic tools (S_TABU_DIS)
    Checking at Program Level with AUTHORITY-CHECK
    Applications use the ABAP statement AUTHORITY-CHECK, which is inserted in the source code of the program, to check whether users have the appropriate authorization and whether these authorizations are suitably defined; that is, whether the user administrator has assigned the values required for the fields by the programmer. In this way, you can also protect transactions that are called indirectly by other programs.
    AUTHORITY-CHECK searches profiles specified in the user master record to see whether the user has authorization for the authorization object specified in the AUTHORITY-CHECK. If one of the authorizations found matches the required values, the check is successful.
    Starting SAP Transactions
    When a user starts a transaction, the system performs the following checks:
    •        The system checks in table TSTC whether the transaction code is valid and whether the system administrator has locked the transaction.
    •        The system then checks whether the user has authorization to start the transaction.
    The SAP system performs the authorization checks every time a user starts a transaction from the menu or by entering a command. Indirectly called transactions are not included in this authorization check. For more complex transactions, which call other transactions, there are additional authorization checks.
    •     &#61601;        The authorization object S_TCODE (transaction start) contains the field TCD (transaction code). The user must have an authorization with a value for the selected transaction code.
    •     &#61601;        If an additional authorization is entered using transaction SE93 for the transaction to be started, the user also requires the suitable defined authorization object (TSTA, table TSTCA).
    If you create a transaction in transaction SE93, you can assign an additional authorization to this transaction. This is useful, if you want to be able to protect a transaction with a separate authorization. If this is not the case, you should consider using other methods to protect the transaction (such as AUTHORITY-CHECK at program level).
    •        The system checks whether the transaction code is assigned an authorization object. If so, a check is made that the user has authorization for this authorization object.
    The check is not performed in the following cases:
    You have deactivated the check of the authorization objects for the transaction (with transaction SU24) using check indicators, that is, you have removed an authorization object entered using transaction SE93. You cannot deactivate the check for objects from the SAP NetWeaver and HR areas.
    This can be useful, as a large number of authorization objects are often checked when transactions are executed, since the transaction calls other work areas in the background. In order for these checks to be executed successfully, the user in question must have the appropriate authorizations. This results in some users having more authorization than they strictly need. It also leads to an increased maintenance workload. You can therefore deactivate authorization checks of this type in a targeted manner using transaction SU24.
    •     &#61601;        You have globally deactivated authorization objects for all transactions with transaction SU24 or transaction SU25.
    •     &#61601;        So that the entries that you have made with transactions SU24 and SU25 become effective, you must set the profile parameter AUTH/NO_CHECK_IN_SOME_CASES to “Y” (using transaction RZ10).
    All of the above checks must be successful so that the user can start the transaction. Otherwise, the transaction is not called and the system displays an appropriate message.
    Starting Report Classes
    You can perform additional authorization checks by assigning reports to authorization classes (using report RSCSAUTH). You can, for example, assign all PA* reports to an authorization class for PA (such as PAxxx). If a user wants to start a PA report, he or she requires the appropriate authorization to execute reports in this class.
    We do not deliver any predefined report classes. You must decide yourself which reports you want to protect in this way. You can also enter the authorization classes for reports with the maintenance functions for report trees. This method provides a hierarchical approach for assigning authorizations for reports. You can, for example, assign an authorization class to a report node, meaning that all reports at this node automatically belong to this class. This means that you have a more transparent overview of the authorization classes to which the various reports are transported.
    You must consider the following:
    •     •         After you have assigned reports to authorization classes or have changed assignments, you may have to adjust objects in your authorization concept (such as roles (activity groups), profiles, or user master records).
    •     •         There are certain system reports that you cannot assign to any authorization class. These include:
    •     •         RSRZLLG0
    •     •         STARTMEN (as of SAP R/3 4.0)
    •     •         Reports that are called using SUBMIT in a customer exit at logon (such as SUSR0001, ZXUSRU01).
    •     •         Authorization assignments for reports are overwritten during an upgrade. After an upgrade, you must therefore restore your customer-specific report authorizations.
    Calling RFC Function Modules
    When RFC function modules are called by an RFC client program or another system, an authorization check is performed for the authorization object S_RFC in the called system. This check uses the name of the function group to which the function module belongs. You can deactivate this check with parameter auth/rfc_authority_check.
    Checking Assignment of Authorization Groups to Tables
    You can also assign authorization groups to tables to avoid users accessing tables using general access tools (such as transaction SE16). A user requires not only authorization to execute the tool, but must also have authorization to be permitted to access tables with the relevant group assignments. For this case, we deliver tables with predefined assignments to authorization groups. The assignments are defined in table TDDAT; the checked authorization object is S_TABU_DIS.
    You can assign a table to authorization group Z000. (Use transaction SM30 for table TDDAT) A user that wants to access this table must have authorization object S_TABU_DIS in his or her profile with the value Z000 in the field DICBERCLS (authorization group for ABAP Dictionary objects).

    iPhones require a SIM card for activation, regardless of whether it is being used as an iPhone or an iPod.
    Put a SIM in the device for the carrier it is locked to and activate it.  The SIM can then be left it it or removed.
