IOS 7 Control Center - Otterbox and Griffin Armor Case Users

I have had similar problems with both my iPad and iPhone getting the control center to swipe up from the very bottom of the screen...the only solution right now is to try and wedge your finger at the very bottom of the screen and swipe up and hope that works, or take your front cover off and leave the screen exposed or put a screen film over it and use it that way. You could cut some of the bottom plastic away to give you a spot to swipe up but that would make the case look ugly.
There is however an easy fix and it is up to Apple to do this or not:
Just as you can swipe down anywhere on the screen to do a spotlight search, release a patch that does the same for the control center...anywhere you swipe up on the home row area, the control center comes up.
Problem solved...you didn't think this one through by only make it a small strip area at the bottom of the screen and not taking into account armored cases.

I did solve the issue....
If you have a Griffin case you can push the protective cover film away from the case and then use a dremel tool to lightly sand the plastic in the right corner to the shape of a half-circle. Be careful not to dremel the plastic, but once you are done you can put the cover back on and now control center works perfectly as long as you use your finger in the bottom right corner.
Easy mod and fix.

I cannot find the AirPlay icon for the life of me. I have iOS 7.0.2 on my iPad Mini. Connected to my WiFi network just fine. I swipe up to get to the control center badges and all I see is the AirDrop icon. Trying to disable mirroring on ipad for Netflix streaming and don't know what to do. Any luck out there?

If you last used an Apple TV to mirror your device and have updated to the newest Apple TV software, go into settings and turn airplay back on. The icon should then appear on your iPad mini when you swipe up allowing you to disable it for Netflix. After updating my Apple TV software for some reason it turned airplay off.

I can't open the control centre with a Griffin Survivor Case on my iPhone 5.

The title says it all really. The plastic of the case ends really close to the screen and there is an inbuilt screen protector. This means I can't register touch on the bottom edge of the screen, which is apparently where you have to swipe to open the control centre. I have no problems opening the notifications, swiping down from the top.
Does anyone alse have this problem, which the same or different cases? I know there are similar issues with Otterbox cases too.
I hope Apple will notice the problem and make a fix soon. It should be simple enough - just move the swipe spot up a little like the one at the top of the screen.

I have the OtterBox Armor case which has a similar design and thus problem. After much practice I can now open CC with about 3 or 4 attempts. Much better than when I started and thought it just couldn't be done. I really have to start at the exact middle of the bottom of where the screen meets the case.

[SOLVED] Gnome 3.6.1 Control Center Printers and Users "unlock"...

I have an Arch system running Gnome 3.6 with systemd, and without consolekit as is now the standard.
After upgrading from Gnome 3.4 to 3.6, the unlock buttons in both Users and Printers section of gnome-control-center no longer work. (In 3.4, the printers dialog could authenticate but it never actually worked properly - I heard they fixed this in 3.6. I never tried the Users panel back then)
Anyways, I sifted through the source code for the Printers dialog, and it points to the polkit 'org.opensuse.cupspkhelper.mechanism.all-edit' rule. Reading the rule file for cupspkhelper (which exists), it specified "allow_admin" is what this rule wants. Following further research, I added myself to the 'wheel' group which apparently should work. And after all of this? It still doesn't work. I imagine that there is a similar problem for the Users panel, but I haven't investigated in detail.
Any ideas to get this working? Is it broken upstream? Is it my fault?
Thanks
[edit] I guess I should post some logs, bug running gnome-control-center in terminal doesn't actually output anything. -v adds nothing other than to say it is in debug mode.

Additionally, I have a newly added suspicion that gnome just needs ConsoleKit.

I should note that this cleared up on its own after a packagekit update it seems.

Logitech Control Center Software and Slow StartUp

Has anyone noticed that startup and login are slower after installing the Logitech Control Center software?
After installing it I get the beach ball when I log in which I didn't before the installation.
Thanks for any thoughts.

Even before getting to single user mode access and the like the boot process calls on the OS, Scott (in the form of the "BootX" bootloader, which lives at System/Library/CoreServices/BootX.)
You can read more about the boot sequence used in OSX at http://www.kernelthread.com/mac/osx/arch_boot.html and http://www.kernelthread.com/mac/osx/arch_startup.html
These may not be quite up to date, as they were written when Macs were running on PPC chips rather than intel, but essentially the sequence of events is much the same.
http://developer.apple.com/documentation/MacOSX/Conceptual/BPSystemStartup/BPSys temStartup.html should fill in any changes with the new architecture

Control center location source and targets

Hi,
I'm trying to document an OWB 11.2 repository and I'm trying to find a OWBSYS view that holds the assigned source and target locations for a control center in the design repository (what you see in the control center properties in the Locations tab) . Does anyone know where I can query this information?
Cheers,
John

Perhaps the table is repurposed between 10g and 11.2?
When I query that table I see a list of modules (information_system_name) and it's associated location (location_name) but I do not know if the location is a source or a target. A lot of these tables have been around since 9i so I guess in 9i speak I want to see the equivalent of the module type ('data source' or 'warehouse target').
In 11.2 the module no longer has this source or target concept directly via the module properties - it held against the control center properties - not that all_iv_control_centers shows this information - that is just a list of control center names and their associated remote server/workspace/workspace owner properties - which is similar to the old 9i runtime repository connection properties when using the deployment manager and pretty much the same as what you see when querying all_iv_runtime_repositories.
So, still not quite there yet...
Cheers,
John

Boot Camp - Windows 7 (64-bit) - Catalyst Control Center

Hi,
This topic is all about running Catalyst Control Center on your Mac in Boot Camp.
Setup:
Mac Pro 2.66 (early 2009)
ATI Radeon HD 5870
Boot Camp 3.2
Windows 7 (64-bit) SP1
Case:
First I uninstalled all graphic drivers that came with Mac OS disc. After that I booted up in safe mode and removed all left-overs with Drive Sweeper. After verifying that everything was gone I booted up in standard mode and installed latest version of Catalyst Software Suite (v.11.2).
Notice! To get through with the installation of CSS I had to uncheck features like drag and drop decoding. If I did not uncheck those features the installation process would fail...no clue why. After a "successful" installation it still does not work. When I right-click the CCC shortcut or try to start the application from its folder nothing happens.
*Solution (if any):*
Any ideas?
<Edited by Host>

I had trouble accessing catalyst control center (for my AMD Radeon HD 6700M Series display adapter) on my Windows partition (64-bit). I tired installing the drivers from the mac os x cd and from AMD's web site. While I could successfully install the driver, I couldn't get the control center up and running. The interesting solution to this problem was downloading the AMD Catalyst™ 12.2 Preview Driver. After installation, i was able to access the catalyst control center and solve a problem that I was having (undersize on my monitor when using HDMI). I hope that this helps solve the problem to others who are experiencing it (I thought I'd post as this page came up in my solution searching).

Control Center Manager - blank grey window .... forever

I'm running OWB10gR2. Many times a day I will choose Tools->Control Center Manager from the OWB Design window. The Control Center Manager window comes up but is just blank. In most cases I must bring up the Windows Task Manager to kill the process. Occasionally even the Task Manager won't kill the process and I must reboot.
Has anyone seen this situation? Please send me your thoughts/ideas?
Could this be Java version related?
Thanks,
Bob Larsen

Bob,
You could try removing the file owb/bin/admin/DeployMgrLayout.xml - this stores the layout of the Control Center Manager, and if it's become corrupted, may result in an empty window as you've described.
Failing that, try running the owb client from command line using owb/bin/win32/owbclient.sh, and check the displayed log for any errors when the Control Center Manager is invoked.

Error on Control Center while trying to run jobs

Hi,
I got a problem while trying to run the scheduled jobs or process flows.
We tried restarting the control center service manually. It is started without throwing any errors at the backend. But when I open the control center service and try to start or stop a job, its throwing the below error.
The error is as below.
ORA-20029: The control center service is not currently available

I am not able to resolve it. Could any one of you please help me in resolving it?
It is very urgent. Thanks a ton in advance

Hi Oliver,
Thanks again!!
There are a lot of queues in DBA_Queues.
But how can we know which queues should be enabled and which queues should be disabled? As I observed, All the Exception queues are disabled and the reamining queues are enabled.
About the parameter aq_tm_processes, we have not changed the value of it. Previously, all the jobs used to execute perfectly with the same setting. So, I dont think the value is a problem.
Recently, we had the below problem in database, because of which all the jobs got stalled/hanged. The system DBA had resolved this problem by extending the SYSTEM tablespace. After that all the database is fine except the OWB jobs. Is there any impact on the on the owb jobs because of the below error?
ORA-00604: error occurred at recursive SQL level 1
ORA-01653: unable to extend table SYS.AUD$ by 8192 in tablespace SYSTEM
ORA-02002: error while writing to audit trail
ORA-00604: error occurred at recursive SQL level 1
ORA-01653: unable to extend table SYS.AUD$ by 8192 in tablespace SYSTEM
Thanks in advance,

Control Center problem (Following migration from 9.2)

Hi,
I've performed migration from 9.2 to 10.2 following chapter 3 of the install guide. I can deploy / upgrade my objects OK using my default control center but if I try and debug a mapping it cant connect. The debug info pane sits on 'Connecting to Control Center schema' and then pops up with an error offering a retry.
Im stuck as to whats wrong, I've set up a new control center, re-registered my target location with that and still I cant debug.
Has anyone seen this before following a migration?
Thanks in advance !

did you check whether synonym exist in the database? use below sql to see the synonym.
select SYNONYM_NAME,owner,TABLE_NAME,TABLE_OWNER from dba_synonyms where SYNONYM_NAME='XMLCONCAT';
Regards

Can find E-Business Control Center

I'm running portal 4.0 on solaris and currently trying to get things working. I've managed to get most up and running but I can't the e-business control center up and running? It looks as if I'm missing the files which has something to do with the EBCC?
regards
Stig

Stig,
For the GA Release of WebLogic Portal 4.0 EBCC is available on Windows NT/2000 only.
You have to download EBCC separately and then install it on a Windows NT/2000 box.
If you go to download site and select the "Sun Solaris" platform ans then "Procees to Download",
you will find the link for downloading EBCC just below the link for dowloading portal 4.0.
EBCC for Solaris will be available with Service Pack 1 which is planned to be available around
mid-December.
Hope that helps,
Michel.

How do I get the Brother Printers Control Center to work again?

The Brother Control Center for Brother's MultiFunction Printer/Scanners disappeared after upgrading to Snow Leopard. The previous files were erased in HD\Library\Printers\Brother\Utilities\ and the Control Center is gone. The Brother USA website http://www.brother-usa.com only lists software updates for 10.5. 10.6 is not listed as an option
How do I start the Control Center to scan documents and chose between different Brother printers?
Thank you for your help.

Thank you for this link. It helped me find the solution.
1. Take the Brother Install DVD and reinstall the printer software.
2. Ignore that there is newer software on your computer.
3. Restart the computer
4. Go into the HD\Library\Printers\Brother\Utilities\Control Center directory and restart the ControlCenter
5. Run Software Update and install the SL printer update
6. Reconfigure the ControlCenter software buttons via the customize buttons as needed
Everything seems to be working fine again.

MSI P67A-C45 problems after OC Genie in MSI Control Center

Hi ,everyone! Yesterday i try press OC Genie button in MSI Control Center 2 and after reboot my computer hangs, video not initializing,
i think motherboard working fine, but problems with BIOS. I tried clear cmos by pressing button on motherboard, but situation not changed.
I,m also took two strips of memory from the motherboard, and boot, after it issued two beeps.
My system configuration
MSI P67A-C45
BIOS 1.13
i5 2500
Samsung Original 1333 CL9 2 x 4GB
WD Caviar Green 2TB
Powercolor Radeon 6950
Chieftec 600W
I think MSI Contol Center OC Genie section have bugs!!!
Please help!!!
Thanks for reading. Sorry for my English.

I had similar problems. I resolved them removing all pci cards and battery also. Turn pc on without any cards on pci slots until windows boots.
Don't forget to adjust your system time. When windows boot normally I shut down the computer and put all the cards on pci slots. That procedure resolve my problems.
I suspect of the version of my bios. Recently I upgrade my bios version to the 1.E version avaiable on the MSI site.
I hope that you can fix your problem.
Sorry for my bad english. I'm portuguese

Why is ios 7 control center inaccesable with ipad case?

My iPad case is cloth and in Landscape, which is how I use it, the ios 7 control center is completely inaccessible. I have to actually bend back the cover and stick my finger down in between the iPad and the cover in order to swipe, and it still only works occasionally. Not to mention the damage to the case. Why doesn't Apple provide another option or raise the swipe point a few centimeters? It is very frustrating as I rely on quick access to the brightness control and suddenly my work is negatively effected.

None of the screen itself ifs covered. Just the black border. So there is no obstruction. But to swipe ones finger must have a sort of head start I guess. It is a ridiculous problem. There should be a shortcut or another option
