IMessage question - texting, data, etc.

My friend just got the iPhone 3rd generation. His parents are very strict about texting, so they've disabled it from the plan with their carrier. But we can easily communicate with each other through iMessages when we are both connected to a wifi service (I am on my iPad). I was wondering if it cost anything if you sent messages through wifi. I know it doesn't cost me anything, but I'm primarily concerned if it costs him anything. Also, can you use iMessages without wifi on your phone when you are sending to another apple user, and you don't have texting capabilities? Just wondering, because we never get to talk outside of school, and this would definitely be a great way to communicate without having to call.

Imessages does not cost anything when on wifi. cellular data would need to be used to do otherwise and if it disabled through the carrier then i dont believe he could.

Phone Number= Problem with texts, data etc?

Does anyone know if a phone number is a reason for slow data, text messages etc? Are there any phone issues that can be a result of having a "bad" phone number?
When I had the iPhone 5, my pic messages were not sending and I was having severe data issues. The replaced the phone twice and the SIM card and I ended up taking the phone back and switching back to my S4 before I got the 5s opening day. What does switching out a SIM card do? Does the SIM card have anything to do with how a phone is receiving data/network signals?

My friend was telling me she knew someone who had to change their number because their texts and MMS messaging were being funny and not sending/recieving O_O. Well they switched out the SIM when I previously had the iPhone 5 but this time they didn't do anything, now that you mention it, I think I might just go there after work to have a new SIM inputted because now I'm on 3G 90% of the time instead of LTE and the LTE switch is on. All they did (technician online) recommended a network extender -_- hello that doesn't help me when i'm away from home. smh.

Is imessage charging my data or texting usage?, Is imessage charging my data or texting usage?

I'm currently using Tmobile. I have 4g data and unlimited texting, when i use imessage without wifi, is there a way to message them without using my data, and charge it to sms instead? thank you!

imessage uses wifi if available. If it is not available then it will use cellular data (part of your 4 GB) and not be part of your text plan. When you have no wifi and you send an imessage using cellular data there is no way to do that by charging to your unlimited SMS plan. If you are converned that imessage will use up you r4 GB (which is unlikely) you could turn off imessage and just send the message as SMS text and then turn imessage back on

Issues with iMessage when switching data carrier (wifi - cellular)

So I have had this issue with my 5S and now my 6+ in iMessage. Not *always* but often enough I've run into issues sending messages via iMessage when I associate with wifi in that they don't send. I'll get an error message saying "not delivered" and it will stack as many outgoing messages I try to send. However, if I force the first message to send as text, subsequent messages will go through afterwards without issue. If I go from wifi to cellular I have no issues whatsoever and when I have these issues on wifi, my data works fine (incoming emails, Facebook notifications, etc.). I used to run cellular data only because I had unlimited but now I have a cap so I intend on using wifi when possible...but to have to send my first message as a text just so I can use iMessage is annoying...

Hi there BigDogg795,
I would recommend taking a look at the troubleshooting steps for iMessage found in the article below.
iOS: Troubleshooting Messages - Apple Support
To resolve issues with sending and receiving iMessages, follow these steps
Check iMessage system status for current service issues.
Go to Settings > Messages > Send & Receive and make sure that you registered iMessage with your phone number or Apple ID and that you selected iMessage for use. If the phone number or Apple ID isn't available for use, troubleshoot iMessage registration.
Open Safari and navigate to www.apple.com to verify data connectivity. If a data connection isn't available, troubleshoot cellular data or a Wi-Fi connection.
iMessage over cellular data might not be available while you're on a call. Only 3G and faster GSM networks support simultaneous data and voice calls. Learn which network your phone supports. If your network doesn't support simultaneous data and voice calls, go to Settings > Wi-Fi and turn Wi-Fi on to use iMessage while you're on a call.
Restart your device.
Tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings on your iPhone.
If you still can't send or receive an iMessage, follow these steps
Make sure that the contact trying to message you isn't blocked in Settings > Messages > Blocked.
Make sure that the contact you're trying to send a message to is registered with iMessage.
If the issue occurs with a specific contact or contacts, back up or forward important messages and delete your current messaging threads with the contact. Create a new message to the contact and try again.
If the issue occurs with a specific contact or contacts, delete and recreate the contact in the Contacts app. Create a new message to the newly created contact and try again.
Back up and restore your device as new.

The Entity Extraction transform enables you to process unstructured text, such as web pages, news articles, maintenance logs, text from a spreadsheet, or even from a database column, to extract key pieces of information that you can use in query and reporting.
-- Using Text Data Processing Blueprints: this 6-minute demo explains how to get up and running with TDP quickly using a series of jobs contained in a blueprint. A blueprint is a sample end-to-end solution available on SAP Community Network.
-- Creating an Extraction Dictionary: this 13-minute demo explains how to create an Extraction Dictionary, which can be used to customize a TDP Entity Extraction transform to improve results.

Thanks for sharing your use case. I have a few questions if you don't mind:
1) What file formats are typically found within these compressed containers? For example, html, xml, txt, pdf, MS Office, etc.
2) Do these compressed containers ever have other embedded compressed containers within them? For example, a zip file containing other zip files within it.
3) If the intention is to process document files, do any of the document files have other document formats embedded/nested within them? For example, a MS Word document with a spreadsheet embedded within it.

Texting/data

I ordered a 4s this morning, the process was simple and took just a few minutes. I transferred the upgrade from my mom's line to my line and we are still on an old family plan so I had to chose a new data plan. During the order process the new data and my current text package ($10/1000messages) stayed on the list and then during the final page, the texting price was dropped. So, can I add that back on when I get the phone? I know texts are not part of data but iphone to iphone messages are free so is that why the texting would have been dropped?
As a side, for those who have iphones and text with other iphone user often, do you find you still need a texting package? (this is for old plans, not the new unlimited talk/text shar plans).

You can add the plan when you get the new phone. If your haveing lots of imessage to iPhone iPad macs etc then you might not need alot of messages.
I would after you get your phone when your closer to the end of your bill cycle you can backdate the text plan if you go over $10. If you don't go over $10 you would save money if you don't add it right away. I noticed sometimes when I iMessage sometimes it sends as a text but if you see that when you don't have a text plan you can complain and get that adjusted because There is a setting saying don't send iMessage as text that should stop it.

An example Installation with Data, etc. a la Contoso?

Hi,
we are a company focused on delivering MS Solutions. Of course SAP is important and as we have no person with skills in that area, it was decided that I should become aquainted with the whole thing. I've been able to figure out how to install a standard SAP ERP 2004 ECC 5.0 System and been able to work with it so far. On the other hand there is no data, etc. in such a installation. MS offers VPCs which has an example company called Contoso using the MS products with an already setup system including example data, etc. I think I've run into something like that on the SAP Pages, unfortunately I can't remember where or how. Is my memory correct and where could I find it?
Thanks for your help

Are you wanting to upload the file through an Oracle Form or just upload a file? If it isn't via forms, then you should probably post your question here: {forum:id=732}
You also should post the version of Forms, Database, etc...
As far as uploading files via a text file, I personally like to use Oracle External Tables even in Forms. You can Google that and there is plenty of information. If you search this forum, then you will see lots of people use UTL_FILE in forms, but you can Google that also for more information.

How to print text/data in flex 3 using printer???Plz help...

   Hi,
          plz tell me the way to print text/data using printer in flex. I tried the FlexPrintJob class. but it takes object of a container to be printed & prints the visible content of that container(along with scrollbars), bt i want to print all contents of the container(including invisible).
      I have tried to print bitmap image through FlexPrintJob but it takes lot of time for spooling... So plz help me out in printing(fast with all content) in flash
I am using flex 3 (flex Builder 3 IDE).
Thanks in advance!!!

Hi Sagar,
Don't worry You can use the below work around to print all the contents of the Container including the invisible contents under scrolll with out scroll bar..
So what the idea here is we are seeting the container height to full size with out scrolls before sending the container object to printer and as soon as you print the object you are restoring it to the original height with scrolls...so that you can print the full contents without scrolls...
You may have doubt that by chnaging and restoring the size the user may see momentary resize of the container but it is not so as it is a fraction of a second and user cannot notice this change... Give it a try ..I had already run into this problem recently and I have found a work around for this which is as below:
// Here mainContainer is the container or box id the contents of which you want to print
   private function doPrintContainer():void
    var printJob:FlexPrintJob = new FlexPrintJob();
    if(printJob.start() != true) return;
    try
     var mainContainerHeight:int = mainContainer.height;
     //Increasing the height of the desired component to be printed.
     mainContainer.height = mainContainer.measuredMinHeight;
     mainContainer.verticalScrollPolicy = "off";
     //Adding the resized Component to our FlexPrintjob and then sending the print request
     printJob.addObject(this,FlexPrintJobScaleType.MATCH_WIDTH);
     printJob.send();
     //Resizing the component back to normal size
     mainContainer.height = mainContainerHeight;
     mainContainer.verticalScrollPolicy = "auto";
    catch(error:Error)
                 trace("Error : " + error.message);

Infoobject change for extracting texts data.

Hi BW guys,
Here is my requirement.
I have one info object 'salesmen', which is already used in some other ODS & Cube's.
Now I want to extract texts data for the object 'salesmen', for that I will need to change my infoobject (changes are : adding credit control are object under compounding).
But while i am activating the info object again it is giving errors.
Error messages:
1) InfoObject XXXXX (or ref.) is used in data targets with data -> Error:
2) Characteristic XXXXX: Compound or reference was changed
3)InfoObject XXXXX being used in InfoCube XXXX (contains data)
etc....
But i don't want to delete the data in any data target.
Is there any way to solve this problem?
Thanks in advance......

Hi,
If you have not many cubes and ODSs with this salesman, you can consider another, beter, but more time-consuming way.
1. Create a new IO for your salesman, add a compounding attribute as you want.
2. Load master data for the new IO.
3. Create copies of your infoproviders.
3. In each of them delete an old salesman IO and insert a new one.
4. Create export datasourses for old cubes.
5. Create update rules for new data targets based on old ones.
6. In URs map your new IO with the old one. All other IOs should be mapped 1:1 (new<-old).
7. Reload data targets.
That's all.
The way I proposed earlier is less preferrable. Because anyway you'll have to change loaded into data targets data. And in this case it's better to change data model as you want.
Best regards,
Eugene

HP PhotoSmart C309g Printer no longer prints Black Text, Graphics, etc

Hi:
We have an HP laptop.
We have an HP PhotoSmart All-In-One C309g Wireless printer/scanner/copier.
It has been working fine for a couple of years, until 2 days ago.
It will no longer print anything in black (colors and Photo Black work fine).
We have taken it apart...removed all ink cartridges, removed the cartridge caddy,
cleaned all electrodes, replaced the caddy, installed 5 (all) new cartridges,, etc.
We went through the process of removing the cartridges, caddy, shutting down,
removing the AC cord, waiting for several minutes, then doing the reverse process.
When we turn the printer on, it does its auto-check/install, and after about 4-5 minutes
tells us that the installation failed, the to press the OK button.
We went thorugh this process several times, and the installation failed every time.
In the past, installing printer cartridges, cleaning, calibrating...executed quickly.
The printer will not print anything that is Black, whether it me a print from Word, Notepad,
doing a direct copy from the glass, etc....both, with the laptop On or Off, but it will not
print anything in standard Black.
The colors and Photo Black print fine, but the regular Black does not.
The output from the other 4 cartridges are sharp, crisp, etc.
Anything... text, graphics, etc., in standard Black does not print.
Any ideas.
Thank you

JSF - Read a text file and diplay lines of text data on the web page

Hello,
For one of my projects, I need to display lines of text data on the web page using Java Server Faces Technology. The raw data could be from simple text files or sockets or anything. (Getting the data is not my issue but displaying is). Could anybody send answers with sample code. In servlet, one could do this by -
public void doGet(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response)
throws IOException, ServletException{
PrintWriter out = response.getWriter();
out.println("<html>");
out.println(DATA);
out.println(DATA);
out.println("</html>");
I am looking for similar solution.
Thanks in advance

Thanks mjolinor. Works great!
Two questions.
1. Could you plz suggest how this could be modified so this code would read the file in or accept it from the pipeline instead of wrapping the (@' around the data?
2. Could you plz briefly describe some of the details of the code so I can further research and understand.
Thanks for your help.
Thanks for your help! SdeDot
1. It already reads in the file. The (@' .. '@) bits are just there to create a file using your test data to demonstrate that it works.
2. Not user what kind of "details" you want. There really isn't much there, and get-help on the cmdlets used should provide information on what's going on with them in that script.
[string](0..33|%{[char][int](46+("686552495351636652556262185355647068516270555358646562655775 0645570").substring(($_*2),2))})-replace " "

Use of MIN with text data

I am not familiar with using MIN with text data as in the sample below and could use some help in deciphering what it is doing. This SELECT statement is taken from a larger CREATE OR REPLACE VIEW statement. The first line of the WHERE clause is making the connection to look at the correct user's information. The section after the first AND is what I am trying to interpret correctly. I have moved into a new position and wasn't around when this view was created. The statement is designed to assign the correct DOMAIN_ID to each user based on values in the elms.elms_dom_lkup table ed. This table consists of 4 columns: DOMAIN_ID, PROC_LVL, LOCATION, AND POSITION. The DOMAIN_ID is the only field that is not nullable. The primary key for the table is a combination of the 4 columns. The section after the first AND matches the PROC_LVL from the ed (lookup table) to the PROCESS_LEVEL in the cd (reference table) and confirms the process level is associated with the users primary position. It then looks for one of three conditions:
1. process levels match and LOCATION and POSITION are NULL
2. process levels match and LOCATION matches user's location in a reference table
3. PROC_LVL is NULL and POSITION matches user's position in a reference table
(SELECT MIN (domain_id)
FROM elms.elms_dom_lkup ed, mici.const_dept cd
WHERE c.constituent_id = cd.constituent_id
AND ( (ed.proc_lvl = cd.process_level AND cd.pos_level = 1
AND ( (ed.location IS NULL AND ed.position IS NULL)
OR (LOWER (ed.location) = LOWER (loc.campus))))
OR (LOWER (ed.position) = LOWER (c.job_desc)
AND ed.proc_lvl IS NULL))), /*Domain ID*/
My question revolves around the priority on those matches. The ed table is not organized in any manor. The records are in the order they were entered. Does the MIN in the SELECT statement cause the DOMAIN_ID

Hi,
Welcome to the forum!
If v is a string column (such as a VARCHAR2), then MIN (v) is the first string in collating order (that is, alphabetic order, but with numbers and punctuation symols given particular values in the ordering).
It lookw like the code fragment you posted is a Scalar Sub-Query , that is, a sub-query used where an expression is exprected. For example, in a query like this:
SELECT *
FROM    scott.emp
WHERE   sal     > 1200
;You can replace the literal 1200 with any kind of numeric expression, even
SELECT *
FROM    scott.emp
WHERE   sal     > (     --Begin scalar sub-query
                SELECT AVG (sal)
                FROM    scott.emp
            )     -- End scalar sub-query
;You have to be careful that a sclar sub-query produces exactly one column, and either 0 or 1 rows. You'll get a run-time error if the sub-query ever produces 2 or more rows.
People sometimes use MIN in situations like yours when the sub-query might otherwise return 2 or more rows, and either:
(a) all the non-NULL rows will contain the same domain_id, or
(b) it doesn't matter which domain_id is used, just so long as it is one that actually exists in the result set.

Rows in a relational table are never in any intrensic order.
It looks like the question got cut off. Does the MIN in the SELECT statement cause the DOMAIN_ID to do what?

I see you corrected your first post.
842436 wrote:
... My question is does the MIN in the SELECT statement cause the DOMAIN_ID from the first record that meets any of the 3 conditions to be returned?Yes, it makes the sub-0query return the first domain_id ( in alphabetic order ) that meets all the conditions. If there are 1,000 rows that meet all the conditions, the query will ind all 1,000 of them, keeping track iof which one is first in alphabetic order. Remember that
'127.255.255.0' is less than
'25.0.0.0' in alphabetic order, because '1' is less that '2'.

Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder
from the menu bar. Paste into the box that opens (command-V), then press return.
A folder window will open. Inside it there should be files with names as follows:
Envelope Index
ExternalUpdates.storedata
Move those files to the Desktop, leaving the window open. Other files in the folder may have longer names that begin as above. Move those files, if any, to the Trash.
Log out and log back in. Relaunch Mail. It should prompt you to re-import your messages. You may get a warning that the index is damaged and that Mail has to quit. Click OK. Warning: The process may take hours if you have gigantic mailboxes. For reasonable-sized mailboxes, it should only take a few minutes.
Test. If Mail now works as expected, you can delete the files you moved to the Desktop. Otherwise, post your results.
