Interesting problem for all the DIYers out there

I'm sure you've all heard about the compact flash upgrade for the iPod mini, where you replace the microdrive with a compact flash card to get more storage/better battery life/better durability. I dropped my mini a bit ago, and broke the microdrive in the process. I figured that I'd try this hack, but instead of using a compact flash card, I decided to use a SD/SDHC to Compact Flash Type II adapter instead, since SDHC cards are even cheaper than Compact flash for similar capacities at the moment. When it was all said and done, I actually wound up spending less on the adapter + 32gb sdhc card than I would have spent on a standalone 16gb compact flash card.
However, whenever I restore my iPod, as soon as I reconnect it, iTunes tells me that it's corrupted and needs to be restored again. The thing is, the restore seems to be valid- after the restore process is finished, I can use the menu system on the mini perfectly fine. It's basically what it should be, the OS without any songs/media on it. ****, I can even play bricked. Still, the second I plug it back into windows, iTunes recognizes the iPod, fails to display a number in the capacity field, and tells me to restore it. Windows 7 RC1 also tells me that I'll need to format it if I want to use it with the computer. The memory stick is fine, as is the compact flash adapter. I can format the stick with or without the Compact Flash adapter just fine with my printer or PS3 (only two devices I own with a Memory card reader), but after I "restore" my iPod, if I try to just use the stick in either reader, it'll fail (the compact flash adapter becomes required). After restoration, if I view the contents of the compact flash adapter + sdhc, it appears with the volume label of "IPOD" with an empty directory listing. Finally, every time the mini "goes to sleep", it will prompt me to select a language on "wake up", which I guess means that it didn't write that setting to the disk....
Any ideas? Could someone give me an image of their iPod mini that I could try to use to restore, or the contents of their mini drive (minus the music) in a .zip/.7z/whatever that I could try to work with?
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Feel free to contact me at [email protected] if you feel that you have a solution.

Interesting problem for all students and programmers Have a look!

Hello. This is a very interesting problem for all programmers and students. I have my spalsh screen class which displays a splash when run from the main method in the same class. However when run from another class( in my case from my login class, when user name and password is validated) I create an instance of the class and show it. But the image in the splash is not shown. Only a squared white background is visible!!!.
I am sending the two classes
Can u tell me why and propose a solution. Thanks.

Hi Luis,
Use tcode XK99 for vendor mass change, select the Fax no field. You have to take note that this changes will be only 1 fax number for all vendors.
Else you have to use BAPI for mass change.

I am trying to update my apps on my 4s but says there is not enough space. It shows i have 19.3 GB of 25 GB. Also, in my itunes...it shows about a quarter of space on the bar is photos but I took all the photos out. Don't make sense.

It's telling you there's not enough space *on your 4S*. The 25GB you refer to is probably that on iCloud, that's different memory than that on your iPhone. You need to delete video, pictures, apps, or whatever ON THE IPHONE, to make enough room for downloading updates to your apps.

I am having problems with the month of October. When I have the full month view, the synced items from google calendars won't show. But they do for all the other months. There is definitely a glitch somewhere because if I am on day view and try to click on day 15 of October, it will not let me. It totally is acting weird.

Free fonts, fonts from a reliable foundry?
Have you tried removing them temporarily?
Do you still have problems if you create a new Windows user account and log in with that? How about if you start in Safe Mode?
And I would run a memory checker and see Troubleshoot font problems | Windows

Try the usual steps: restart, reset, restore.

If restoring using a backup doesn't help, try restoring the iPhone to factory settings and try for a while with just the Apple-included apps, to make sure it's not an issue with a third-party app. If it still has problems, it may have a hardware problem and will need to be sent to Apple.

In the box with the disk came the product key, have put it in and it doesnt work. Please help..x

unfortunately - you can not. you can't even buy outlook by itself at microsoft's own website.
does it have to be outlook? maybe you can get away with using something else that's outlook compatible.
how about trying Thunderbird for Mac OS?
or maybe you can call apple and let them know you purchase the wrong version - they might give you a break and just pay the difference for the home and business version.
good luck

I know the iphone 4s can turn off the vibrate for all sounds, but is there a way to keep the vibration on for just phone calls (with the ringtone also on) but off for everything else?

Urgent solution needed for the Problem ( get all the combination from table

we are having a table in following format
day | grpID | pktID
sun | 1 | 001
sun | 1 | 002
sun | 1 | 003
sun | 2 | 007
sun | 2 | 008
sun | 2 | 009

tue | 1 | 001
tue | 1 | 002
tue | 1 | 003
tue | 2 | 007
tue | 2 | 010
1. We have a combination of pkdIDs related with a specific grpID, for a particular day.
Ex: For Sunday, we have two combination list for grpID=1 is (001,002,003) and for group id = 2 is (007,008,009)
2. We need to get all the available combined pktid for each group id for all the days .
Eg the the expected result that is needed from the above table
(001,002,003)
(007,008,009)
(007,010)

SQL> with tbl as
2 (select 'sun' d, 1 grp, '001' pk from dual union all
3   select 'sun' d, 1 grp, '002' pk from dual union all
4   select 'sun' d, 1 grp, '003' pk from dual union all
5   select 'sun' d, 2 grp, '007' pk from dual union all
6   select 'sun' d, 2 grp, '008' pk from dual union all
7   select 'sun' d, 2 grp, '009' pk from dual union all
8   select 'mon' d, 1 grp, '001' pk from dual union all

10   select 'mon' d, 1 grp, '003' pk from dual union all
11   select 'mon' d, 2 grp, '007' pk from dual union all
12   select 'mon' d, 2 grp, '008' pk from dual union all
13   select 'mon' d, 2 grp, '009' pk from dual union all

16   select 'tue' d, 1 grp, '003' pk from dual union all
17   select 'tue' d, 2 grp, '007' pk from dual union all
18   select 'tue' d, 2 grp, '010' pk from dual) -- end of data sample
19 select distinct '('||ltrim(max(c1) keep (dense_rank last order by lv),',')||')'

Welcome to the Apple community.
A number of people have reported similar issues recently, many appear to have found a discrepancy of some kind in their account settings and making changes to these settings or simply resetting them has resolved the matter.
Check your account details are correct, check that you are using the correct details for Location, Region and Time Zone. You may want to change these settings and then change them back to see if that helps.
Also check your payment details, make sure your details are exactly how they appear on your credit card statement, you might also try changing some of those details, saving them and changing them back again.
You might also try logging out of and then back into your iTunes account (Settings > iTunes Store > Apple ID’s > Sign Out) and restarting your router. (Some have reported that after doing this, they need to check for rentals even though it may report that there aren’t any, after which rentals once again appear in the ‘movies’ feature)
Rentals should appear under their own heading in the ‘Movies’ feature, you might also check at Settings > iTunes Store > Check For Rentals.
At this point in time, I’m wondering if this could be related to (but not restricted to) the new feature that allows others to come into your home and use your Apple TV to download and play their content on your Apple TV without logging into their account on your Apple TV. The Terms of Use for iTunes Store content have always been to require you to only purchase and play the content from the store in the location where you live and to use a credit card registered in that location. Previously Apple seem to have been somewhat lenient on enforcing such restrictions, perhaps now they are not. However I don’t really have any evidence to support this suggestion, except that changes made to accounts in these areas do appear to be helping many.
If you are successful in resolving your problem, perhaps you would let us know exactly which action resolved the problem for you. If you are having this problem to begin with, can you also tell us your location.

In new iphone 5 very first call getting busy tone for all the numbers

in new iphone 5 very first call getting busy tone for all the numbers.

my son had this problem. I went to the apple store and they wiped out and restored the phone.. They said that was all they could do but that I should call our phone carrier and ask them. I did. They asked if in the top left side, next to battery power there was a icon of a half moon. There was. They said to go in to settings and go to "Do not Disturb" and turn it off. I did.....problem solved!!! Somehow "do not disturb" was turned on and that is what happens if it is!!
I hope this helps.

How to update the condition price in the sales order for all the items

Hi,
How to update the condition price for all the itmes in the sales order to carry out the new price automatically through a stand alone program, for all the orders in the billing due list table?
Thanks,
Balaram

Hi,
There is a change in the requirement.
Scenario:
I have created a sales order with some 4 condition types, in that 2 condition types are of class A & B and the other two is of class C. Here I need to update the condition price of class A & B only and the remaining condition types should not get update even though there is an updated price is available.
For the above scenario, I need to write a standalone program. Do we have any function modules to update the price of the single condition in the sales order? Please tell me how we can update the sales order at item condition level.
Thanks.
Balaram

How can I shut off all of the pop-up windows for all the Firefox updates?

How can I shut off all of the pop-up windows for all the Firefox and Thunderbird updates?
Apparently now Mozilla creates new versions of their browser and email apps every two weeks instead of just creating updates... I'm tired of all of the pop-up requests for these constant installation requests and all the problems that the new version installations create... I just want to use the software and be left alone.
I can't find a way to make Firefox and Thunderbird stop with the pop-up requests for new installations... is there a way to do this or has Mozilla just got it rigged so one can't just use the software without re-installing a new version every two weeks and running in to new plugin issues and missing features every time?
Help!
Thanks,
