How to tell if you are buying a 5th or 5.5gen iPod.
I'm looking to buy a new iPod, upgrading from my trusty 3rd gen. I want to buy a 30gb model but is there anyway I can tell between the new ones and the old ones? The only store near me is known for selling outdated products so I want to be sure.
Thanks
I am really glad that someone asked this question. I have just been given my Christmas prezzie early, and I was slightly worried that it might not be the 5.5 or Sept 2006 version.
Anyway, I have a very cheeky picture of Mr Depp on the box complete with the tricorn hat, and my serial number ends in V9P!
(My main concern was the extra resolution for the movies which as doubled i believe from the first version).
Thanks

So I bought a 2GB black Nano at Best Buy on Saturday, and the center button acted funny, so I returned it about 2 hours ago. They had no more in stock, so I got my refund and went to Circuit City. They had tons in stock. But this is what I noticed: on both the front and back of the NEW Nano box there is a silver Apple logo in the upper right corner. There were NO silver apples on the box I got from Best Buy. And even the clerk at CC knew what he was doing because he pulled it out from behind 2 Nano boxes with no apples.
So when I opened the box, I saw my SLIP CASE! I have an iSee Nano on order, but this will do in the meantime.
I hope this helps you all!!!!!
KenWell it is hard if you are ordering it online like I did (but I ordered it online way before the slip cases anyways).
And until you get you iSee nano case, DO NOT REMOVE THE THIN PLASTIC COVER THAT COMES ON THE FRONT OF THE NANO. Even if you do have the slip case. -
How to tell if you are buying a full version or upgrade
buying adobe premiere pro cs3 - how can you tell from the numbers on the packaging if it is a full version (commercial) or educational or just an upgrade, I was on hold for nearly 2 hours with adobe customer service and nobody picked up.
cheersAre you buying from the Adobe Store? The package WILL state whether it's the full, an upgrade (see Phil's comment), or the eductional version.
Are you buying from a certified reseller? The package SHOULD give the full details.
Are you buying from eBay? Who knows what you'll get, or whether it will work?
Are you buying from an individual? Other than asking them, and trusting them, I'm not sure that there's a way to tell. Maybe a certain UPC on a clean shrink-wrapped box could yield a clue.
Note: if you need a key-gen, or similar, for the installation key and for a S/N, it will certainly be bogus. I realize that you know this, but I felt that I had to include it for any others.
Good luck,

How to tell if you are running an exe or vi
My searching skills suck today.
I am building an exe using the application path to find certain files that need to be included. It works great in the exe, but when making changes to the VI all the paths are broken because of the application path. But I remember back a while someone had a way to tell if you were running the program as a VI or an exe. Then when the program starts it can choose the correct paths to use.
Any ideas on how to do that? Or is there a better way to run the program as a VI and an exe without breaking paths?
Thanks
Solved!
Go to Solution.Drop a property node of the 'Application' class, select Application->Kind. The output is an enum of Development vs. Runtime vs. Student vs. Embedded... you get the idea.

How do tell if you are on wired vs wifi
Hi, I have a mac mini 2010. I have it wired into an Airport extreme and I also have the WiFi on. How do you know for sure if you are using one vs the other? Meaning, I'd like to get the speed from the direct connection when browing the web at my desk. Should I turn off the Wifi?
Thanks.Turning off the Wi-Fi on your computer will insure that the Ethernet connection is active.
Unless you have changed some settings on your Mac, if both Ethernet and Wi-Fi are "on", the Mac will automatically default to the Ethernet connection over wireless.
To see if your Mac is setup to do this.....
Open System Preferences (gear icon on the dock)
Open Network
Click the small gear icon at the bottom of the connection list
Select Set Service Order
If Ethernet is at the top of the connection order list, then your Mac will default to Ethernet whenever you connect an Ethernet cable to it....even if the wireless is on at the time.
Still, it makes sense to turn off the wireless on the Mac if you don't need it. -
Change Data Capture How to Tell which you are running Sync or Asyn
Hi ,
I am taking over a new system that has change data capture running, but Im really confused how this is running. Most of the CDC is set up using Sync(triggers), but I have about 5 tables that DO NOT have system generated triggers on them. I know Streams is NOT running/configured. I know Capture is not running/configured (because nothing in DBA_CAPTURE table). I can tell that these 5 tables are still getting updated in the change table schema. I can not figure out how the 5 tables that DO NOT have triggers on them are updating the change data set tables.
I had thought the the 5 tables, must be configured with HOTLOG, but when I look at the CHANGE_SETS table they all (including these 5 tables) are set to CHANGE SOURCE NAME = SYNC SOUCE. I would expected that to be HOTLOG_SOURCE. So I "assume" they aren't set up using Asnc. hot log mode. So maybe the other Async modes are used, but not pushed to another database? Is that possible?
Any other ideas on how to figure out how the CDC is set up for these 5 tables?
thanks for your help.Thanks for the reply, but I think I must have not stated the problem clearly. I dont WANT to set the source I want to figure out how this CDC is working. I see ALL the sources are currently set to SYNC_SOURCE. Almost all of the tables are set up with system triggers on them, but 5 dont have system triggers, yet the source says SYNC_SOURCE. I did validate that the change tables are getting updated for these tables. my question is how are they getting updated? I "assume" since they dont have system triggers ont eh table they aren't synchoronus cdc (like the other tables are). yet the source says SYNC_SOURCE. What am I missing? How can I tell if the redo log is populating those changes tables? Im pretty sure it is (Becuase there aren't triggers or jobs running), but Im curious if there is a way to tell for sure.
Thanks, -
How to tell if you are saturating g5 bus
Hi,
I went ahead and hooked up an OWC Enterprise RE SSD 50 gb drive on the board controller. I am still hoping the Delock Sata2 adapter will work but I thought i would try it with out to compare, After instal I xbenched it, and got a combined score of 152.53. Although It seems as if I remember xbench getting some criticism for its accuracy I will post the report anyway. Does this show the sata1 bus being saturated by the SSD or is this not the correct way to test for it.Ya, I was just B**ch7678.

I have a 4th gen iPod touch that won't power up! I tried all the traditional stuff. I want to know how to tell if the battery is good. itunes see's the ipod in recovery mode. Tried dfu mode and did not work. Any ideas? I can hear the PC beep when plugging it in! I suspect a bad battery and trying to charge it ina wall charger made it hot!
Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order. The appointment is free.

How do you tell whether you are on an iPad or an iPhone?
HOw does one tell the hardware you are running on, iPhone vs. iPod Touch vs. iPad? and how does one do this in such a way that it won't break later on as later revisions of the iPhone etc are released. Does apple have a generic + specific hardware coding system? Remember the old Carbon Gestalt() calls?
Suggest using the confidential forums that are currently in place for iPad questions, etc.

How to tell what fonts are missing in a Photosohp CS5 document?
Hello! I have received some work from a graphic designer. I need to modify some of the text in the document. When I open the document I get an error message:
Some text layers might need to be updated before they can be used for vector based output. Do you want to update these layers now? [Update] [No]
If I click [Update] it replaces the font with Myriad Pro. If I click [No] the text looks the way the designer intended, but I have the exclamation mark-triangle symbol over the layer with the text. If I try to edit the text I get another warning:
Editing or rendering the text layer "Text Layer" will cause its layout to change. Continue? [Cancel] [OK]
The same behavior described above occurs. If I click [Cancel] I obviously can't edit the text. If I click [OK] it changes the font to Myriad Pro.
I would like to determine what font the layer is using. I could swear that previous versions of Photoshop would tell me what fonts were missing when I opened a document. I can't use the text tool to select the text without it changing the font. Other posts have mentioned using the text tool to look at the text drop-down to find a greyed-out font which indicates the missing font. I do not have that. I only have perhaps 200 fonts installed. Can anyone tell me how to determine what fonts a .PSD document is using? I would prefer not to bug the graphic designer if possible. Thanks much!
~ DanNot sure why you are getting ""Font is present on the system but requires a layout change.", usually you do not get that instead the name of the font shows.
We use extensis Universal Type Client, so the fonts load automatically upon opening files, and never really get missing fonts in Photoshop.
Actually fontbook has auto font loading if you want to give that a try. Fontbook >> Preferences -
How to tell which maps are the latest?
I have Maps v3.01 loaded on my 6710 Navigator (came with free worldwide licence) and Map Loader v3.0.28 on my PC.
How do I tell which maps are loaded on my Nokia and what version/date the maps availalble on Map Loader are?
Map Loader does not state which maps are already on my phone, nor does it state the date or version of the maps which can be uploaded.
Obviously, I'd like to install newer versions of my country map if and when it is available, but how do I know which version is available and which I already have?
Ovi.com does not seem to be the answer either as all maps were downloaded using Map Loader.
Solved!
Go to Solution.If you already have a free worldwide license and V 3.01 is working well for you then you are right to leave it for the moment. I hear of problems searching for addresses etc with V3.03. Can always update later when everything is sorted.
I believe if you delete all your maps and then use Ovi Suite to download new maps, Ovi Suite will at least tell you what maps you have on your phone. I haven;t tried it myself because I can't stand Ovi Suite.
Speed warning is available for Ireland but just like you I have to import the speed camera locations as landmarks. Hopefully, we will see these as new features in future updates. -
Amber Update: How to tell if you have it
I just got a replacement 928 and it went through some updates and now shows the phone is up to date. I have some of the amber features like clock on the lock screen but do not have double tap to wake. In extra+info it shows nokia enhancements but does have any reference to amber. Can someone tell me how to tell if I have amber? Thanks in advance for your help.
Ok, so, here is what I found. Apparently, the issue is was in the replacement and the backup.
So, when I restored my replaced phone data, I noticed there were some downloads in the app store that had errors and weren't updating. Thinking this was just because I didn't have the Amber update yet, I left them, thinking they'd update when my OS updated. After a few weeks, I finally gave up, and removed the downloads. Low and behold, the moment I removed them, I had a ton of new updates, some of which were Amber features. Once I let the new apps update, I checked, and I now have Lumia Amber. Apparently, I had the OS, but the individual app features couldn't update, because of the download errors. Once I removed that, it was fine.
So, in summary, if you have replaced your phone, but it doesn't seem to be updating to Amber, go into your App store, and check your downloads page for any errors, if there are any, it should tell you on the front page of the App store. If there are errors. Press and hold to remove each individual error. Once done, you should have new updates available. Once those updates are done, you should now have Lumia Amber.
Good Luck :-) -

Hello MengyaLiu, and welcome to the forum,
I’m honestly not sure why our delivery team would have told you they were on their way to your home and then not arrive without an explanation as to why. Our delivery agents should be notifying you of all necessary changes in their delivery schedules, as we realize the inconvenience any possible delay may cause, so it’s regrettable to hear we failed you in this regard. I truly apologize for any frustration this oversight may have caused.
While I’ve personally documented your feedback here at the corporate office to ensure something of this nature doesn’t happen in the future, I’m glad to hear our delivery team was able to make this right and successfully delivered your TV yesterday. Please feel free to let us know how it went and if you have any further questions for me. I’ll be glad to help.
Best wishes,
