In iOS7 it writes from its own

Sometimes my ipad mini which runs iOS 7.0.3 starts pressing random pieces of the screen from its own!

  • 9.2.0.6 OUI cannot write to its own installation directory

    I would like to install the 9.2.0.6 patchset on a freshly installed 9.2.0.4_linux_x86_64 (AMD). The system is RedHat EL AS 3. I have installed j2re1.4.2_07 (because the Java brought by Oracle does not even start the VM ...) and edited the ./install/oraparam.ini to use our own JRE.
    runInstaller tells me that all system requirements are met. But - alas - OUI says that it cannot write into the directory that it created itself (tmp/OracleInstall...). The rights matrix of this directory is drwxr-xr-x oracle oinstall, even if I set umask to 0000. There are several GB free.
    The last message is
    : file or directory not found
    What is going on here (or rather what isn't)? What file is OUI looking for?
    Thanks in advance for kind replies

    Ivan,
    the rights for /tmp were already rwxrwxrwt. Even if I remove the sticky bit, the error remains. I have the strange feeling that this is not a rights problem. Do you have any idea what
    : file or directory not found
    is supposed to mean? What file is OUI looking for? Does OUI 10.1.0.3.0 check for temporary files of other OUI versions (e.g. OUI 2.2.0.18.0 bundeled with Oracle 9.2.0.4)?
    I think I will start from scratch: remove and reinstall 9.2.0.4 and then try the patch installation again.

  • How confgure applet to use latest jre from its own family and not the next

    Hi!
    I have configured oracle forms for using latest 1.4.2 sun jre. The problem is, that dynamic versioning uses the latest installed sun jre. This is in my case 1.5.0_02. But I have installed several 1.4.2 versions too. How can I restrict dynamic versioning to 1.4.2 family?
    Actual configuration:
    jpi_classid=clsid:8AD9C840-044E-11D1-B3E9-00805F499D93
    jpi_codebase=https://java.sun.com/products/plugin/autodl/jinstall-1_4_2-windows-i586.cab#Version=1,4,2,5
    jpi_mimetype=application/x-java-applet;version=1.4.2
    regard
    Torsten Kleiber

    I also have this problem - and I am looking to use a CLSID that runs the latest version of 1.4.2 but does NOT run 1.5, even if it is installed.
    Alternatively, I investigated writing a javascript to get the JRE version installed on the client machine, but this requires an Active X object and is only available for Windows systems.
    var javaVersion;
    var shell;
    try
    shell = new ActiveXObject("WScript.Shell");
    if (shell != null)
    try
    javaVersion = shell.regRead("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\Software\\JavaSoft\\Java Runtime Environment\\CurrentVersion");
    You could see if 1.5 is installed and then either not load java and request user download 1.4.2, or use the "dynamic CLSID" clsid:8AD9C840-044E-11D1-B3E9-00805F499D93 in the case where 1.5 is not installed and you will get the latest version of 1.4.2
    The CLSID would be the simplest solution - have Sun thought of this and are not telling!!?

  • My G5 iMac cannot boot up from its hard disk

    My G5 iMac cannot boot up from its hard disk - I get the alternating Mac OS folder and the ? Folder which I understand means the system cannot be found.
    On recommendation from a friend I tried replacing the battery - no difference.
    However, I can boot up from the CD/DVD drive from the OSX installer disk, DiskWarrior, Drive Genius and Techtools Pro. But none of these utilities can see my hard disk to see if it needed repairing.
    In fairness at one point DiskWarrior did see the drive and I was able to replace the directory safely. However, on subsequent reboots nothing can see the disk.
    Suspecting the hard disk I bought a new one and a USB/SATA casing to mount the old drive in to see if I could get anything off of it. The good news so far is that the old drive (now mounted in the new USB casing) can be seen and read on my daughters iMac. So all my information is safe and also now backed up.
    Having installed the new disk I found it also cannot be seen by any of the above utilities. I have since formatted it in the USB casing and put it back in the iMac but it still cannot be seen.
    As a test I installed a new system on an old 40Gig Lacie Firewire drive attached to my iMac. This works and boots ok - sometimes.
    I am now experiencing the necessity to force shutdown and restart from the startup button several times before the external disk is recognised. And most times it freezes after 30 minutes or so.
    I might also add that after some force shutdowns/startup I get little or no chimes. And sometimes when trying to reset the PRAM get no second chime. On other occasions I do.
    Now I am totally stuck and wondering if anyone can throw some light on why my iMac can boot up from a variety of CD/DVD utilities and sometimes an external Firewire disk but not from its own hard disk which, as I have already said, can be seen on my daughter's iMac but not by mine, so its not the disk.
    Does anyone have any suggestions at all before I bite the bullet and take it in for a diagnosis and repair (depending on cost).
    Thanks

    Could be the logic board, in which case you would need to take it in. Since the drives are good, and the directory was repaired, the logic board is about all I can think of.

    My daughter has had her Razr for about 9 months now.  About two weeks ago she picked up her phone in the morning on her way to school when she noticed two cracks, both starting at the camera lens. One goes completely to the bottom and the other goes sharply to the side. She has never dropped it and me and my husband went over it with a fine tooth comb. We looked under a magnifying glass and could no find any reason for the glass to crack. Not one ding, scratch or bang. Our daughter really takes good care of her stuff, but we still wanted to make sure before we sent it in for repairs. Well we did and we got a reply from Motorola with a picture of the cracks saying this was customer abuse and that it is not covered under warranty. Even though they did not find any physical damage to back it up. Well I e-mailed them back and told them I did a little research and found pages of people having the same problems. Well I did not hear from them until I received a notice from Fed Ex that they were sending the phone back. NOT FIXED!!! I went to look up why and guess what there is no case open any more for the phone. It has been wiped clean. I put in the RMA # it comes back not found, I put in the ID #, the SN# and all comes back not found. Yet a day earlier all the info was there. I know there is a lot more people like me and all of you, but they just don't want to be bothered so they pay to have it fix, just to have it do it again. Unless they have found the problem and only fixing it on a customer pay only set up. I am furious and will not be recommending this phone to anyone. And to think I was considering this phone for my next up grade! NOT!!!!

  • [E2013][C#] How to prevent user from updating its own events on Exchange

    Hi everybody,
    I hope you can help me. I have a system based on Exchange / Outlook 2013, and I would like to put on user's calendar some events that they can't delete nor update. I have tried to create appointments using
    Exchange EWS with an administrator account, but the problem is that those events can be deleted or updated by users. This is because the events are on user's own calendar, so usually user can update them. 
    How can I have "some" events to be readonly for a user, but must be visibile in its own calendar? (No other calendar overlay). Is there a way to throw an exception or something similar on Exchange Server when a user modify those events
    (some custom property must identify them, of course)? I have looked at transport agents, but I haven't found any example for managing calendar items server side. 
    I cannot use only an Outlook plugin because users could connect to exchange with smartphone, and they could update appointments from there. I have to prevent updating (from Outlook and from smartphone, basically from everywhere except for
    an administrator user) for some events (programmatically created by EWS, for example) which are in user's calendar. Can you help me?
    Thanks, 
    Antonio

    Hi Antonio,
    bad news for you: It's impossible. A User always has full control over all items in his or her mailbox (including his calendar), no matter what you do.
    If it's important enough to you, you can write a service that monitors all those specific appointments and undos all changes the user applies to them (it won't keep the user from changing the Appointment, but it will not have effect for long. Your users
    may feel a bit upset about that though).
    Cheers,
    Fred

  • How do I stop the cursor from having a mind of its own?

    I just received this computer T400.  A mac user wswitching over to pc - not famliar with the land.  I am using a notebook and the cursor clicks on its own when I let it rest and then transports me to whatever information/page that it happens to rest upon.  needles to say this is very tiring.  I have tried to go to the help section and there is not informaiton about how to stop this from happening.  There is informaiton for mouse control.  The information I found on the cursor only spoke to the rate of blinking.
    also, I would like to incluse word in my start up programs and can't figure out how to do that.
    the cursor information would be most useful to me at the moment.  Thank you.

    onlinebabe, welcome to the forum,
    you probably need to turn off or adjust the sensitivity of tapping in the UltraNav Touchpad properties. Go to Control Panel > Mouse and select the UltraNav tab and adjust the settings.
    Do you mean that you want word to start automatically when windows starts? Right click in an empty area of the task bar and choose properties > Start Menu > Customise and add Word to your Autostarts folder.
    Hope this helps

  • How do I stop Firefox from opening its own homepage tab on top of my homepage?

    Firefox keeps opening up its own website in my browser on top of my own home page even though I have reset the home page numerous times. Everytime I open firefox I have to reset my home page which works for a half-day or so and then ... we're back to the Firefox homepage. How do I keep Firefox from hijacking my browser?
    P.S. I've tried all the stuff that's recommended -- resetting my homepage, etc ... and I'm just getting tired of having to do this. This is getting so irritating I'm going to stop using Firefox and start using another browser.

    I am having a similar problem, I'm using "Show my home page" on start-up but firefox decides to always open to the last page visited regardless. I also generally close Firefox using the red X or with alt+f4. This problem is especially annoying when the last page 'visited' is an annoying pop-up ad that wasn't been caught by the pop-up blocker.

  • How can I stop my iPhone 5 from starting the music player randomly on its own?

    I have an iPhone 5 running the latest version of iOS.  Sometime last year (maybe shortly after I originally upgraded to iOS 7), the phone developed a nasty habit of starting up the music player during phone conversations when I connected to my Mazda's Bluetooth system.  Oddly enough, I can hear the music playing over the phone conversation but the person on the other end of the phone line can't.  To stop the music, I have to open the Music App and then close the App.  Note that the Music App did NOT have to be previously open for the music to start, and the Music App doesn't usually show as an open App even after the music starts on its own.  The problem has persisted through the last few iOS updates and it now happens in a broader range of circumstances (e.g., I have told the iPhone to forget the Mazda adapter, and it now does the same thing with my Plantronics Voyager Bluetooth headset).  I usually have to go through this sequence at least twice per Bluetooth pairing session before the phone stops trying to start the music player on its own during phone calls.
    The problem went away temporarily when I did a full reset of the phone, but it came back after a few days (even when I added apps & music back without restoring from an iOS backup).
    Has anyone found a way to fix this problem once and for all?  If I can find a fix, it's enough of an annoyance that it might convince me to go Android with my next phone.  Thanks in advance...

    I've tried syncing with itunes and icloud.  The missing contacts are nowhere to be found.  I just re-enter them on my iphone and proceed on my not so merry way.  Next time I look for a contact, it might be there or it might not.  It is not necessarily the same contact.  It appears that my oldest contacts seem to be the ones disappearing

    I deleted the " Private" folder ... and emptied the trash. So the folder and its contents no longer exists on my computer at all !!!
    I do have the OS 10.5 dvd that i purchased years ago...
    But my computer will not start from it on its own.
    My question is what is the open source or terminal language code used to tell my mac to look in the DVD rom drive for startup info?  I know that im not the only person in this world who has deleted the "PRIVATE" folder and emptied the trash so it no longer exists on their machine...
    That said theres gotta be a common fix for a Power PC G4 that has the OS X dvd in the rom drive but wont look to it to reinstall the vital contents of the PRIVATE folder.
    Once again there is not a copy of this file or its contents in the recycle bin...
    Also rebooting the machine , pressing and holding the letter C does not prompt the machine to look to the dvd rom drive.
    I was reinstalling pro tools and figured I would make some room by cleaning my computers HD...
    Lol It was a bad choice to delete this file ...
    Thanks guys

    Okay sorry it took forever to respond... But for a while there I gave up on this computer!!!!
    Money's been tight lately , so taking it in to a professional was not yet an option... though I did consider it eventhough.
    Anyway long story short im glad I didnt spend any money because I already had all the tools necessary to fix this issue but was going about it in the wrong way. Okay so here is my scenario and the breakdown... Though this may not fix the issue for everyone :( which *****... But I know we all will have different circumstances.
    Anyway here we go...
    Okay so first things first....  Years ago I purchased the OS 10.5.1 disk ... So that has always been in my possession!!!!
    I realize that some may not have a disk to reflash your OS to your hard drive... but if you do your in luck.
    2ndly ... I had an external harddrive with all of my itunes downloaded music so it was more than okay with me to delete my primary HD because all the important stuff could either be copied over or repathed to be located.
    -------If you dont want to read through the whole story the fix is summed up in the bottom section-------
    Okay so now the SOLUTION!!!!
    By trial and error , and pure boredom I opened up my computer to clean the inside...
    AND
    "Disconnected the primary HD"
    and just because ....... REBOOTED my computer. Just to see what it would do.
    Upon restart and though it looked like it would repeat its usual cycle...
    About 1 minute in to that process my computer froze for about 2 seconds and flashed to the OS installation screen.
    Mind you I havent seen this screen yet... Probably hasnt been since I installed the OS years ago.
    After a bit of trial and error...
    I decided to tell my computer to startup from the OS 10.5 disk located in my dvd rom drive and restarted once again...
    this setting is under
    Utilities / startup disk
    After a little more trial and error ... I realized that I could reconnect the primary HD , restart the machine and return to the OS installation menu.
    So upon this discovery
    I went to the Disk Utility located under Utilities
    Highlighted my primary HD located in the left hand column
    Once highlighted ...
    In the heading section on the right I selected the option
    Erase
    in which I erased My current OS on my primary HD ...
    I used the first option in the list under security... Because it seemed like the least invasive and would take the least amount of time to see if this process would actually work.
    I FORGOT to add something... 
    Another reason why I deleted my primary HD!!!!!
    I forgot to say that it WOULD NOT!!!!! Show up in the STARTUP list as an option...Even After multiple reboots....
    But like clockwork... Once I deleted its name IT SHOWED UP as an option!!!!
    So back to the next step...
    I returned to the STARTUP option under utilities ... And was then able to see MY primary HD now as a startup option...
    But ofcourse it had no name because it we previously erased it.
    So when Clicking my newly erased HD ... I was almost immediately prompted to REINSTALL the OS ...
    Which said it would take about 57 minutes ... But I believe was alot less...
    My issue was resolved ... My computer then stated the install was SUCCESSFUL!!!!!!! :))))))))))) lol ;)
    It was like I was setting up for the first time ;) asking for my registration info...
    The dilemma of deleting the private folder and emptying the trash is finally over resolved. Done ... and no extra money spent!!!!!!!!! 
    Its really crazy that the information for such a simple thing is not readily available. Especially being such a simple fix.
    I know im not the only person who's had this issue , because i've seen numerous posts with similar wording.
    I also know I wont be the last person to have this issue... So I hope this synopsis makes sense.
    -------One more time the fix------
    *Insert your OS dvd into your dvd rom drive.
    *Unplug your primary HD or corrupted startup disk
    *Reboot your machine...
    Upon restart your primary HD will not be recognized...
    * you will then be prompted to select your language.
    Once selected
    *Click Utilities/startup... Highlight the the selection that refers to the OS dvd located in the dvd rom drive.
    * Click restart...
    !!!!!!!!!!Be sure to reconnect your Primary HD Before your computer restarts and you hear the chime!!!!!!!!
    If you do not replug your HD before the chime it will not be recognized.
    In that case restart again.
    Upon restart once again
    *Choose your language...
    *Click Utilities / disk utility
    In the left column select and
    *Highlight your HD ...
    Then towards the top portion / center of the page
    *Click the heading Erase
    Then on the page toward the bottom
    *Click security options
    This will then provide erase options.
    I USED THE FIRST OPTION
    "Dont erase data"...
    *click OK
    * click erase...
    Once erased which should take a few seconds
    *Cancel the disk utility...
    * Click Utilities / startup
    And your newly erased HD should now appear in the list.
    * Select your drive from the list by highlighting
    It should no longer have a name.
    *Once selected, you will then be prompted to restart and install the OS to your newly erased HD...
    Thats it!!!!
    Once everything reinstalls re-add your personal info or registration info and you are up and running.
    Goodluck ;)
