I need some people who can test the following for me - Wake on Ethernet Acc

Hey there,
i am sorry for crossposting but i need someone who can confirm something like a bug in 10.6.2 SL.
What you need:
Two Macs running 10.6.2 SL which are in the same Network.
The following settings need to be activated on both Macs:
1. System Preferences -> Energy Saver -> *Wake on Ethernet Access*
2. System Preferences -> Energy Saver -> Computer Sleep set to never
3. System Preferences -> Sharing -> Screensharing and File Sharing
What you need to do is simple. Start both Macs so that they see each other in their finder.
Now connect with one Mac to the other and wait a bit until you can see the folders of the distant Mac. As soon as those folders show up, click on the "Screensharing" Button on the upper right side of the finder. Enter your PW (if set up) and wait until you can control the other Mac. Now simply go to Apple -> Sleep on the Computer you just connected to via this screensharing session (by using this screensharing session and not the keyboard or mouse of this distant Mac). After this Mac went to sleep close the screensharing session.
Now you need to wait for 2 hours. You are not allowed to start or use the Mac you just set to sleep.(The other one which you used for connecting to the other Mac may be used just as normal).
Now here is the point where all of this gets "interesting". Because you enabled "Wake on Ethernet Access" the Mac you just set to sleep will wake up in about 2 hours to perform a sleep proxy announcement. Usually this Mac will wake up for 15 seconds without turning on the screen. After 15 seconds it should go back to sleep.
What i found out: As soon as you set your Mac to sleep by using a VNC Tool like this Screensharing App (i.e. because you are not in the same room/city/country as the other mac and you cannot put it to sleep manually with the attached keyboard) the Mac will wake up but will NOT go to sleep again. This makes the whole Back to my Mac and Wake on Demand feature useless as it was designed to safe power and not to start a Mac (that was set to sleep by Screensharing) after 2 hours without automatically put it back to sleep.
I need some proof that i am not the only one with this problem so i would really appreciate your help in this.. it will cost you 2 hours where you cannot use your second mac but it might be really useful to me if you have the same issues.
What i already did while troubleshooting:
-Reinstall the Firmware of my Cable Modem and Router
- Restart every of my 3 Macs which behave like this
- Reset PMU, SMC, NVRAM, PRAM and everything that is possible on every Mac
- Reinstall the OS (only thing i installed were the updates to 10.6.2) on every Mac. Same issue on a clean fresh install.
Thank you and happy new year from germany everybody
greetings
André

*Important notice for Macbook/Macbook Pro/Macbook Air Users:*
The "Wake on Ethernet Access" Option is only working when the Mac you just set to sleep via Screensharing is *connected to your power supply* *and its lid is NOT closed.* Please consider this in your testing.
Thank you!

  • I need someone local who can write the software for a new application.

    Hello:
    I need someone to write the program for a new application.
    This person should be local to the Pittsburgh area.
    I'm not really sure if this is the right forum for this as I am not computer literate.
    Any help is appreciated and I live in SW Pennsylvania.
    Thanks

    This isn't really the right place.  But you can try elance.com or others like it.
    Good luck.

  • Weird MAC Crash; anyone who can decipher the log for me?

    My Macbook Pro (mid 2009) with a recently clean installed Mountain Lion experienced a weird crash. I have never had one like this: suddenly the screen turns white and informs that the computer has been restarted due to a problem. As I restart, the log below pops up.
    I had several software running behind: Safari 6.0.2, VLC media player, Microsoft Mac Outlook, Soulseek Mac, and Text Edit.
    I have no idea how to decipher this or where to identify the problem. Is it a virus? (I have firewall ON) Or worse: is my hard disk dying?
    Any help in troubleshooting this appreciated!!
    Many thanks!!

    That panic was not caused by third-party software. If it's happened only once, and is not repeated in at least a few thousand hours of use, a reasonable choice would be to ignore it. Machines don't work perfectly. They never will.
    If the problem is recurrent, the possibilities are (1) a damaged OS X installation; (2) a fault in a peripheral device, if any; (3) an internal hardware fault; and (4) an obscure bug in OS X.
    You can rule out the first two possibilities by reinstalling the OS and testing with non-essential peripherals disconnected and aftermarket expansion cards removed, if applicable. Sometimes a clean reinstallation (after erasing the startup volume) may solve a problem that isn't solved by reinstalling in place, without erasing.
    If you've recently upgraded the memory, reinstall the original memory and see whether there's any improvement. Be careful not to touch the gold contacts on the memory modules when handling them. If necessary, clean them with a mild solvent such as rubbing alcohol.
    The Apple Hardware Test, though generally unreliable, will sometimes detect a fault. A negative test can't be depended on. Run the extended version of the test.
    In the category of obscure bugs, reports suggest that FileVault may trigger kernel traps under some unknown conditions. Most, though not all, of these reports seem to involve booting from an aftermarket SSD. If those conditions apply to you, try deactivating FileVault.
    Otherwise, make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store to have the machine tested. You may have to leave it there for several days. There isn't much point in doing this unless you can reproduce the panic, or if you can't, it happens often enough that it's likely to be repeated at the store. Otherwise you may be told that nothing is wrong.
    Print the first page of the panic report and bring it with you.
    Back up all data on the internal drive(s) before you hand over your computer to anyone. If privacy is a concern, erase the data partition(s) with the option to write zeros* (do this only if you know how to restore, and you have at least  two independent backups.) Don’t erase the recovery partition, if present.
    *An SSD doesn't need to be zeroed.

  • People who have ordered the otterbox for iPhone 4

    I've read some have already received their otterbox in a few other discussions, so I just want to know how yours was shipped? I ordered my fedex ground and it still hasn't shipped. I ordered on Saturday, so that's two business days and still no email about it shipping. I've read where some of you received yours in just a few days after ordering, so I called Otterbox today and they told me that it's 7 to 10 days before it ships and another 5 to 7 for it to be shipped to me. I understand it's new, but that's no adding up with all of the posts I've seen on here where people are getting it a lot sooner. Please post when you ordered, how you requested it to ship and when you received it. If you add of those days up, it could take 3 weeks to get a case for my iPhone. I may just cancel if they hadn't shipped by this week.

    Did you not see where I said that I had called Already? I know it says 7 - 10 days, but people are getting it much sooner.

  • Who could give the license for the use of the songs?

    Hey guys
    Does anybody know the real names or authors of the songs "Dogma" and "Strategy" (both under "Intense" list) and also "peach Cobbler" (under "Cheerful")?
    Basically, I need to know who could give the license for the use of these songs. Do you know any companies that license them or is Apple?
    Thank you
    Sinisa

    Apple's license agreement says:
    You may use the Apple and third party audio loop content (“Audio Content”),
    contained in or otherwise included with the Apple Software, on a royalty-free basis, to create your own original
    soundtracks for your video and audio projects. You may broadcast and/or distribute your own soundtracks that were
    created using the Audio Content, however, individual samples, sound sets, or audio loops may not be commercially or
    otherwise distributed on a standalone basis, nor may they be repackaged in whole or in part as audio samples, sound
    libraries, sound effects or music beds.
    So you're fine as long as you add something to the loops or jingles - what's forbidden is to distribute one of them as a song. But that's probably not what you want to do.

  • I can't send iMessage to some people who I used to be able to, prior to iOS7 upgrade.

    I can't send iMessage to some people who I used to be able to, prior to iOS7 upgrade. I'm sure these people are still using iPhones. Is there something to do with my settings? Or theirs?

    I got my problem solved but I'm not sure what solved it. I DFU mode my iPhone and then restarted it, the other person only restarted it and now we can iMessage normally. Recently I had the same issue with a new contact but the next day got solved but I didn't do anything.
    I hope this gives you some answers insetad of more questions =S...

  • I'm new to itunes and need some help. Can anyone tell me if it is possible to download an album which has explicit content without actually downloading the explicit songs?

    I'm new to itunes and need some help.  Can anyone tell me if it is possible to download an album which has explicit songs without actually downloading the songs that are explicit?

    See if there's a non-explicit version and download that?  Just download the individual songs you want, and not the others?
    Honestly, your phrasing doesn't make sense.  You're asking how to download an album without downloading its tracks?

    There is no such thing as an "unlock code" for an iPhone. It's done through iTunes after being approved by the carrier it is locked to.
    Go back to the carrier it is locked to and find out what the status is. If you paid someone else to unlock it, you got ripped off.

  • So my iphone 4 that is using ios5 keeps freezing when i want to dial, or receive call. i can use all my other apps but cant use the phone to call because the freezing problem. i know some people that are having the same problem too. what can i do?

    so my iphone 4 that is using ios5 keeps freezing when i want to dial, or receive call. i can use all my other apps but cant use the phone to call because the freezing problem. i know some people that are having the same problem too. what can i do?

    I got the same problem. The percentage of getting this problem is around 10% of all my dial/receive calls.
    The problem usually appears when I receive calls. The phone app will freeze, and I cannot dial or receive calls even I closed the phone app, however, most other apps work properly.
    Once this problem happens, I will not be able to turn off the phone by holding sleep button, the only way I can get rid of it is holding sleep and home button at the same time to reset the iphone.

  • I am sending text messages to some people who think they come from my husband.  Also evertime I send a text to my husband, a copy is sent to me too.

    I am sending text messages to some people who think they come from my husband.  They have both my name & number and my husbands name and number in their contacts.  Also everytime I send a text to my husband, a copy is sent to me too.  I do however receive text message from people to my phone and it seems to work fine if they do not have my husbands info.

    You don't necessarily need separate AppleIDs, but you need to set the Send and Receive for Messages to different addresses (Settings App > Messages).

        which can pose a sure SoD Risk, lets say Create Vendor Invoice(FB01) and Make an
        Automatic Payment(F110).
    2. Now run the Risk Analysis by choosing the Default SAP GRC ruleset library and do a  
        Role level Analysis.Then Assign the Test Roles to Test Users and then do a User Level Analysis.
    3. You may have create some Custom Rule sets with appropriate naming of Conflicting functions
        like Creation of Purchase Order (P001), Approve Purchase Order(P002)
        in different Application Areas like Purchase 2 Pay(P2P), Order 2 Cash (O2D) and try to do
        the same as above two steps.
    4. Test the functionality of Risk Remediation by removing the conflicting tcodes and do the
        Risk Analysis.Your previous Risk Roles must not appear
    5. Test the functionality of Risk Mitigation by placing a mitigation Control on the Conflicting tcodes
       and do the Risk Analysis.Your previous Risk Roles must not appear if you have properly
        configured your CC
    Testing the functionality of FF
    1. I would say create a few Firefighter IDs in different functional areas like FI, SD, MM, and then
       create some test users for Firefighter Owners, Controllers and Firefighters who can use
       the functionality of FF.
    2. Create some FF roles which have exceptional access in those functional areas
        encompassing transaction codes and authorization objects that are not used in normal incidents.
    3. Assign each of the FF roles to the respective FF IDs and then to the test Firefighters.
    4. Pull the log reports in FF and see if it gives exact details of the FF usage.
    5. You may have take some assistance of the Functional team members to do the testing.
    Testing the functionality of AE
    1. Create a workflow scenario of hiring a new user.
    2. Create the request under a test requestor. Assign the request to some test approver
    3. Also Assign some roles and test the functionality.
    Hope this helps for a good start

    Hi,
    You lucky guy... I did something really close to what you need. I modified the code a bit (there might be some glitches) to match your requirements:DECLARE

         FUNCTION hextodec( h IN VARCHAR ) RETURN NUMBER
         AS
              h2 VARCHAR2( 10 );
              i NUMBER( 10 );
              j NUMBER( 2 );
              d NUMBER;
         BEGIN
              h2 := LTRIM( h, '0' );
              d := 0;
              FOR i IN 1 .. LENGTH( h2 )
              LOOP
                   SELECT DECODE( SUBSTR( h2, i, 1 )
                        , '0', 0, '1', 1, '2', 2, '3', 3, '4', 4, '5', 5

  • Is there a way to restrict access to who can change the TVARVC table?

    Hi experts,
    We have a requirement where we need to restrict access to who can maintain the variables in tvarv table.
    How do we go about it?

    Hi,
    We had kind of a same scenario. We have table where we enter the Average Item values week wise. We wanted to restrict change and delete access to users for the entries which has already been saved. For this purpose we had created an ABAP program in the "Table Maintenace Generator".  The basic idea about this program is when you create an entry in the table or delete it, a specific event generates. We check the event id whether its "delete" or "change" on the click of save button. If it is Delete or Change, then an error message will be generated saying "You dont have authorization for deleteing or changing the data".
    You can try this approach.
