    I have a Satellite P300 Q01 - there have been two BIOS updates since I bought it W360 and W390.
    Where can I find the release notes detailing what is fixed/changed in each release?
    Thanks

    We are performing transition from 5.5 to 7.0.
    We do not need full description, it is too large.
    Just differences from the previous version.

  • HT4972 I have an Ipod touch version 4.2.1 and the instructions do not detail how to update to iOS 5. Can you help with me step by step instructions.

    I have an Ipod touch version 4.2.1 and the instructions do not detail how to update to iOS 5. Can you help me with step by step instructions.

    iOS 4.2.1 suggests that you may have 2nd generation Touch, which cannot be updated past iOS 4.2.1
    Check http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1353  for help in identifying your model. A quicker method may be to check the back casing. If your iPod has Model No.A 1288 etched into it, then it's a 2nd gen Touch. 
    Assuming that you are using the latest version of iTunes (today, that is 10.6.3), to check if your iPod can be updated, connect it to your iTunes and look on the Device/Summary pane. Select Check for Updates. If there is one, you will see a message telling you that and how to install it. However, if you see a message saying that your iPod is up-to-date, then it cannot be updated.

  • Release Notes - Spotify for iOS

    Hello everyone.
    From now on you'll be able to find the latest release notes for iOS right here. Subscribe to this topic and you'll be updated as soon as there's a new version.
     

    Hello. Here's the latest update of Spotify for iOS.
    What's new in this version (0.8.0):
    New: Now compatible with iOS 7
    Fixed: Some bugs that were irritating us
    Fictitious: This app cries at weddings
    #0.8.0 #ReleaseNotes
    If you'd like to discuss this latest update please come here.
    Important to note
    When reporting issues, always mention what version of the Spotify app you're using
    Apple now supports users whose devices run older versions of iOS, and thus can't update their apps to the latest version.
    Engadget has a good article about what it is and how it works.
    Basically, regardless of your iOS device and version, you can go to Apple's app store and press "update." The app store will then automatically detect the latest, compatible version of that specific app, for your specific device
    If you're still having issues using your car stereo with Spotify, please come here and provide us more information
    This update beings the menu navigation more in-line with iOS 7, but, some might say, it's also become slightly trickier.
    To get to the main menu from any screen, just swipe right, from the top-left of the screen. have a look:

  • Does iOS 5.1.1 break or fix anything not mentioned in release notes?

    When I got the 4S stock with iOS 5.0 (gripes about the Apple-imposed limitations aside,) the phone was fine. Come 5.0.1, I think it was fine as well. When I updated to 5.1, however, it seemed to make touch less responsive and increased the latency. It was much more noticable when trying to utilize pinch to zoom. Often times in the browser or photo viewing, I'd pinch and nothing would happen and I'd have to try a second time or my input would be really delayed. I'm wondering if 1) anyone else noticed this, 2) if it's fixed in the recent release of 5.1.1 and 3) if anything else gets screwed up in the update. Because of this, I'm hesitant to update.
    Also, anyone know of a website that makes note of unmentioned changes that don't appear in Apple's release notes?
    Thanks.

    Don't know anyone with a touch latency problem with either 5.1 or 5.1.1.  Troublshoot your phone as described in the User Guide, Appendix B. 
    As fan as any unannounced fix or enhancement with 5.1.1, I've heard that the proximity sensor no longer requires that  you be warm blooded or alive for it to work.  It now will presumably work for the undead (and reptiles), but haven't had the chance to confirm...

  • RELEASE NOTES R180 - scheduled for September 25th 2012

    We are announcing a new Business Catalyst release, scheduled to go live on Tuesday, September 25th.
    This release includes some great improvements to our module templates, new features for our email marketing system, admin interface improvements, a few infrastructure updates and lots of bug corrections.
    Read through the following sections to get detailed information about this release:
    Features and enhancements
    Issues fixed by this release
    You can jump to the corresponding section by clicking the above links.
    Features and enhancements
    Modules improvement
    Starting with our September release, we have enabled users to use a html page or a static template as a module list template (layout) for all modules that are using templates today. The new addition allows partners to create different views for the same data for a personalize experience. To use this new functionality, just create a new module template and update your module properties by specifying the template to use.
    Ex: {module_blogsitepost,2 template="/ModuleTemplates/Custom/MyTemplate.tpl"}
    Note: although you can use any extension you feel comfortable with, we recommend using a .tpl extension for two reasons: help locate the template better and avoid having these templates being displayed in Page list.
    Email marketing application improvements
    This is release is packed with new features and enhancements to our email marketing system.
    Dynamic modules in email campaign - you can include modules (a subset of 19 modules) in the Email Campaigns content; the system will render these modules right before the campaign is sent, making sure your customers always receive the latest content;
    Fresh, new email templates - the release includes a set of new of new email templates that look much better; along with these new templates, the template selection page was re-done to show better thumbnails;
    Improved recipients selection - we have improved the recipients wizard step, replacing the checkbox list with a smart search and select control; additionally, with this release you will be able to  select multiple lists (including Customer Reports) to exclude from your campaign.
    Improved campaign status screen - before sending the campaign, you will now be able to view the exact number of recipients before sending the campaign (Note: reports and list requiring a long time to compute will be approximated); additionally, while the campaign is sending, we are displaying a meaningful status, that indicates that the campaign is being sent.
    Email clients reporting - the campaign report screen has also been improved to include a report showing you the email clients used to read your campaigns.
    Admin console improvements
    We have updated our new admin user interface and replaced the insert module and insert tag panels with the new Business Catalyst toolbox almost everywhere. With the new toolbox we'll make it easier for partners and business owners to insert and customize module or tags into pages, templates or system emails. The toolbox user interface will opened by default for partners for faster access to tags and modules.
    Other changes
    Some  FTP improvements (better error codes, performance, etc) and SFTP support
    DNS improvements (support for setting up Google Apps email out of the box, several bug fixes)

    Thanks Mario, what is missing from the post and this notification is a fundamental pieces of information "TIMES". This is not just your info but also the release by Jackson Palmer on the blog - totally missed there also
    We need to be notified of the sceduled timing of this release not just a vague date which is not specific globally
    25th but we are global - what time specifically 0100am PST is very different to 1030pm PST , the latter being 26th in AU
    Why - because campaigns scheduled for around this time can be impacted, and also if the sites go offile during the maintenance window campaigns can be a wasted exercise.
    Previously mid week schedules have been a matter of heated discussion, yet the support guys say that schedule ahas not been decided upon
    Not planning is planning to fail, and we have witnessed that all to ofetn in the past. BC unfortunately has a history of failing to plan and inform, and this does little to activate confidence in the community.
    I have discussed with Dragos on numerous occassion how the missing ingridents at BC like communication, UX, planning and most importantly understanding from the customer perspective (rather than backroom coders).
    eg at 645am 26th of Sept 2012 we have a email campaign scheduled ( and can be rescheduled ), the issue I see is without your maintenance window timings being published in a timely manner how can we tell if we move to a sooner or later timing. You have to agree it is disasterious marketing to blast out a campaign and find systems down when customers open newsletter offers and want to shop then.
    If the time schedule is listed somewhere else even more shame that it is overlooked as an inclusion here plus that Chat team are not informed and kept up to date and the blog is just fluff sales and chest beating. That is not support of partners regargless of paid or free status.
    To much time is wasted with this sort of unthinking about unpublished / incomplete notifications, Live chat guy wasted > 15 min of his and my time becuase they don't know either, how many others are being inconvenienced by fialing to plan and notify information to  act upon, this communication in the blog is good info but by itself useless and creates more doubt and lack or faith. Just look at the "hope in the comments"

  • ITunes Release Notes

    Is there anywhere to get the detailed release notes for iTunes? I see that v.7.6.1 is out but all I can find for release notes is stuff about renting movies and "bug fixes", etc. I want to know what bugs were fixed. I have noticed that iTunes has been getting progressively worse in the performance category with just about every update...yet I keep updating thinking that the "bug fixes" may be addressing the issue. It now takes my iTunes (v.7.6.0.29) about 2 minutes to load up on a 3.0ghz Pentium 4 with 3 gb RAM when nothing else is even running (after a fresh reboot). In that 2 minute span, iTunes is frozen. It also seems to hang when I shut it down. I do have a large library of music (about 21,000 songs) and several playlists. Currently, my "iTunes Library.itl" file is 38,808 KB. I have tried deleting several playlists to shrink the size of the database file. I like the iTunes UI, but if these problems continue I think I'll be switching back to winamp or another media player. Any help is appreciated.
    Thanks.

    Apple has always been very tight-lipped about bug fixes in their releases. The exception is security updates. For these, they will typically reference a bug number from CVE or something.
    But for bugs -- you will not get any info unless you are part of the beta seeding program.

  • I have iOS 4, I want iOS 5, NOT iOS 6

    I have iOS 4, I want iOS 5, NOT iOS 6.
    I have an application that I want to run that is known to work well with iOS 5,  but has troubles with iOS 6.
    Knowing Apple, I assume they do not allow this. I have been told that jailbreaking is the only way (which I do not want to do).
    Any ideas?

    You would have to find a signed copy of the .ipsw file, copy it to your computer and update your iPhone on your computer without going to the iTunes server. This is not supported by Apple as you well know and you have no guarantee that the copy of the .ipsw file you get has been corrupted, has malware, etc.
    Knowing you, and how long you stayed with 3.0.1, I'm surprised you haven't looked for a different app that runs under iOS 4.
    Maybe you should just wait until the developer fixes their app or iOS 6.1 is released.

  • ISE profiler feed policies update changelog / release notes

    I often notice that updated feed policies are skipped because the policy was canged by an admin (me).
    In the past the cisco provided policies weren't detailed enought to use them for secure authentication policies, so I modified/added a lot of them.
    Is there any changelog/release notes of the automatically distributed feed policies updates?
    How can I find out the difference between the policies I created/modified and that ones that the cisco updater provides?
    How can I reset the modified entries to the cisco provided values? (in case that ciscos modifications seem to be better than mine)

  • When will Cisco Prime 2.2 Release Notes be available?

    I see that CPI 2.2 has been released. However, there are no release notes. Any sense when the release notes will be available. 
    Also, will an inline upgrade from CPI 2.1.2 to CPI 2.2 be possible?
    Phil

    Yes, no upgrade path available. You need to build fresh 2.2 server & then you can restore a back up taken from previous version (2.1.0.0.87 or 1.4.x)
    Refer below for detail steps that involved.

  • PR overall release not working

    Dear SAP Gurus,
    I have checked the following setting,
    1.Document type (NB & FO) - Overall release activated
    2.Characteristic (3) - ZRPLANT,ZRPURCHGRP,ZRDOCTYP
    3.Class - ZRPRRELEASE
    4.Release Group (P1) - Overall release activated
    If i have deactivated the Overall release then the item wise release strategy is working well.
    Kindly guide me and extend your help on this
    Thanks in advance
    Thanks and Regards,
    R.Diwakar

    In cl30, if you have provided all the entries, and still it is not being picked, then your characteristics are not assigned properly to your strategy - NO VALUES ARE UPDATED,I have forcibly provided it, is it ok
    Did you reach the second screen after putting the class,how many characteristics were appearing, were they same as what you have setup?
    1. spro-mm-purchasing-purchase re-releasestrategy-setup procedure with classification-release strategy, can u select your strategy and go to details and click on classification and get the class name.... it would come written above the tab called general - Class Name - PRRELEASE, I obtained the name also.
    2. Go to the node called edit class, execute it , and provide your class, and click on characteristics tab., get all the characteristics names from there. - PRPLANT & PRPURGP
    3. Go to Edit characteristics nodes and check them individually, the status of all characteristics should be released - ALL THE CHARACTERISTICS ARE RELEASED
    Please check the values that are maintained for the characteristics?  Is it the same as on the P.R?
    4. Then check Groups, only one release call should be present there, please check whether overall release has been ticked or not. - OVERALL RELEASE BUTTON TICKED
    How many Classes do you see in Release group setup?
    Please check this and let me know.
    Alternatively, you can check EBAN for fields FRGGR and FRGST, for the release group and strategy that you have setup - YES I AM ABLE TO VIEW THE FIELDS FRGGR and FRGST
    If you find a P.R, create another one with reference to this and then check. - no OVERALL RELEASE NOT OCCURED
    Are you saying, you found a P.R which was released earlier, and when you created a new P.R with this reference, the overall release did not occur?
    Regards
