Is there anyone who has a G3 who can read my floppy?

I wrote a book in the mid-1990s and stored it on what was available at the time: double density 3.5-inch floppies. I would like to see if the data are retrievable and have read that G3 powerbooks can read these discs. Is there anyone out there with a functioning G3 who can help me? (I have purchased 3 different 3.5 inch floppy readers in past month and none of them can read the doubles density disks, although they read my 1.4MB disks ok.) Or is anyone familiar with another product or solution other than the G3 that can help?

As you have discovered, a USB floppy drive is not capable of reading the special 800K Macintosh format (on DSDD/2DD diskettes). The same is true for a PC floppy drive. The reason for this is that the 800K Macintosh format requires a drive with a variable speed.
What you need is a pre-1998 Macintosh desktop or PowerBook with a built-in floppy drive. A Macintosh computer from approx. 1991 to 1997 will have a floppy drive that can handle both 800K and 1.44 MB (earlier models could read maximum 800K).

I cannot find the next and previous button in iTunes get info menu?
Is there anyone that has also experienced this problem that can help me please
I have the lates version of Itunes

I have managed to figure out how to solve this problem, after looking around I saw a lot of people kept saying makesure it is list view however this still did not work, I found the only way for me get these buttons back was to change the Movie to a TV Show and only then did the "Next" and "Previous" button appear. Right Click> Get Info > Options > Media Kind and then Select TV Show, this is extremely inconvienent but the only way that I found that has worked so far.
Hope this works for you too!!

Is there a text to speech app that can read text books to me?

Is there a text to speech app that can read text books to me?

The Apple Support Communities are an international user to user technical support forum. As a man from Mexico, Spanish is my native tongue. I do not speak English very well, however, I do write in English with the aid of the Mac OS X spelling and grammar checks. I also live in a culture perhaps very very different from your own. When offering advice in the ASC, my comments are not meant to be anything more than helpful and certainly not to be taken as insults.
You don't need an app for that text to speech is biult into OS X.

IS THERE ANYONE LEGITIMATE THAT KNOWS WHY I CAN CONNECT TO INTERNET WITH A IBOOK G3 AND NOT OPEN WEB PAGES? ONLY HAPPENS WITH MY LANDLORDS ROUTER THAT HE HAS PROVIDED THE PASSOWRD FOR. ONLY WAY I CAN CONNECT TO HIS SERVICE IS IF HE HAS FIREWALL DOWN. WE

PLEASE ONLY RESPOND IF YOU KNOW HOW TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM. I'M CONNECTED TO MY LANDLORDS INTERNET VIA AN EXT NETGEAR ROUTER, PASSWORD PROTECTED, THAT HE HAS PROVIDED WITH A G3 IBOOK. FULL SINGAL, CAN'T OPEN WEB PAGES. HAS NEVER HAPPENED BEFORE.

That's because your landlord probably is using WPA2 encryption or 802.11g or 802.11n wireless. The iBook G3 lacks support for WPA2 encryption, which is much stronger than WEP and the original WPA.   It also only has support for 802.11b.     If you want to join a newer router with a secure firewall, get an 802.11g or better wireless ethernet bridge.
P.S. Please avoid from using all UPPERCASE.     It is hard to read, and in internet etiquette it means you are attempting to shout and be rude. I'm sure that was not your intent. So please avoid from doing that again. Thank you.
P.P.S. 10.7.1 can't run on an iBook.   Are you sure you have an iBook and 10.7.1 is on it? If it doesn't say iBook on your screen frame, or Apple menu -> About This Mac doesn't say Mac OS X 10.7.1, it is not 10.7.1, or an iBook.    MacBooks, which replaced iBooks in 2006, and later came out with Core2Duo and Core i processors, are the only Apple notebooks that can run 10.7.1.

How to find out who has release the purchase requisition?

Hi,
I have a Purchase Requisition Number with me and I want to know who has released it. Can any body please help me how to find this?
Waiting for your valuable responses! Thanks in advance.
Regards
Faisal

Hi,
Thanks for your response. However, is there not any tcode by which we can find it out?
By the way I have done the following to find it. Kindly confirm if I have done it correctly:
1. Executed tcode me23n
2. Menu Purchase Requisition->Other requisition
3. Specified the PR number.
4.Menu Environment -> Item Changes
5. Here in this screen, I got some information saying :
Person responsible (user id), Date, Time, Transaction, Change Doc etc..
Here it says that, one user executed tcode me54 and release indicator is changed to 3.
I think this is only the user who has released it.
Anyway, kindly confirm the same.
Regards,
Faisal

How can you tell who has FaceTime?

My brother called me on FaceTime a couple of weeks ago. He said that he'd "opened FaceTime, saw you were on and figured I'd say hi." How could I tell who has FaceTime and who doesn't, and how someone who has it is "on"?
I have Mac OS X Lion 10.7.5, as well as iPod Touch 6.1.5

Suddenly there are people sharing my library,
How do you know?
but they do not show up under "Shared" on my side bar.
That shows libraries that others are sharing. It does not show who is connected to yours.
There's an AppleScript I saw somewhere to show who is connected to your shared iTunes library.

Is there anyone from ASC (moderators perhaps?) you can contact if harassed or insulted in the ASC forums?

After reading the ASC terms, it seems they are more for show than actually enforced. If you do a google search on any user who has been rude, you can easily find endless threads of the same tone which have been left as is. Can trolling/bullying be ignored and does it comply with terms?
In my own experience, it seems as though repeat offenders are free to carry on. If anyone is being bullied or harassed whilst using the ASC forums, is there a way to contact the appropriate people in charge of maintaining these terms?

You need to be a Level 2 user before you can directly report a post as being in violation of the terms of use. Until then, posting in these forums is your best avenue.
I can assure you that the Hosts do monitor the forums, but with thousands of posts to sift through they can't read all of them, so they depend on users notifying them of problems. They also have to make judgement calls as to when a post or thread crosses the line and should be removed. Given the language and culture differences with users here from every country in the world, what can seem rude or harassing to one person may just be low language skills or a difference in how things are phrased on the part of the writer. The Hosts do the best they can to balance between allowing abuse and censoring too much.
If there is a specific post or thread that you feel is indeed abusive, post the URL in this thread and we can, as Klaus said, direct the Hosts attention to that thread. They may also contact you via email as a result of your first post, though again with thousands of posts to have to deal with they may not have time.
Regards.

Is there anyone out there who pre-ordered on the 3rd and still has not received their iPhone???

I pre-ordered on the third and received an email on the fourth saying my phone had shipped. I checked FedEx with the tracking # Verizon provided and I still get the same status that I got on the 4th. It says the order has been "initiated". The next step would be "picked up", but here it is nine days after I pre-ordered and no phone!!! Hasn't even shipped!!!
Is there anyone who is experiencing the same problems???

I have been going back forth with Verizon and UPS and Verizon is blaming UPS and told me it's out of their hands once it ships. UPS is saying they're doing their best to get the package back to NJ where I am. I also tried cancelling my order with Verizon and was told it could not be cancelled because the package has shipped. I was told if I wanted another phone I'd have to pay for it again. No one knows where my phone is UPS says they have misrouted a trailer full of Iphones. I don't know how true that is.

Is there anyone who has used Freescale's SimpleSUB.dll and DEMOJM board?

Hello,
I am trying to connect Frescale DEMOJM board over USB connection. I am adding SimpleUSB.dll to my visual instrument thorough .NET constructor node and giving an mscorlib class GUID to the GUID property, than calling OpenConnection method from an invoke node referencing the SimpleUSB reference. But there is no valid connection to the device as DeviceConnected parameter return "False".
I am using LabVIEW 8.6 trial, .NET Framework 3.5. So they are up to date I guess. Is there a limitation of these for using .NET dll? And also I can use the dll in Visual C# successfully.
At first there was another problem using the .NET constructor node in LabVIEW because of Vista OS. The vi was blocking when i added the node to the vi. I changed the "language & regional settings" to English(USA). The problem seemed to be solved. Can Vista's bug be still a problem?
Is there anyone who has used Freescale's SimpleUSB.dll and DEMOJM board with LabVIEW?
I will be thankfull for your helps.
Emre

Hello Anna,
Here is one of my poor vi trials. I have also tried putting some conditionals in some other files but it didn't helped.
http://rapidshare.com/files/176194859/EXTDLL1.rar.html
Here is a link for the Freescale's DEMOJM board. It shows how to make a GUI for the board using SimpleUSB.dll & C#. You can also download the dll from that web page and there is helpfull documentation for the dll.
http://www.freescale.com/webapp/sps/site/prod_summary.jsp?code=USBJM_TRAINING&nodeId=016246fNrgVJ4Cx...
I am trying to make the same thing with Labview instead of C#. But I am not familiar with the SW issues so am in trouble.
Thanks,
Emre

Is there anyone at all here who has successfully compiled and deployed an SSRS custom report item in VS2012?

Is there anyone at all here who has successfully compiled and deployed an SSRS custom report item in VS2012? Is there a demo out there that actually works in VS2012? Is there anyone who has actually been able to compile and deploy that
apparently obsolete Polygons demo? (Pardon my impatience but I'm running a bit short of time here.)
After much hacking and googling I was able to get Polygons to compile but I still can't deploy it to the toolbox. ('The custom report item type PolygonsDesigner is not installed'). I've modified the RSReportDesigner.config
as instructed but I have no rssrvpolicy.config file on my local machine and
as yet I have no idea if that is necessary for local development.
In order to get it to compile I first added the reference C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 11.0\Common7\IDE\PrivateAssemblies\Microsoft.ReportingServices.ProcessingCore.dll to both projects.
To the PolygonsDesigner Project I also added the references:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 11.0\Common7\IDE\PrivateAssemblies\Microsoft.ReportDesigner.Controls.dll
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 11.0\Common7\IDE\PrivateAssemblies\Microsoft.ReportingServices.Designer.11.0.dll
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SQL Server\110\Tools\Binn\Microsoft.ReportingServices.Interfaces.dll
Are these the correct references?
Exactly what software do you need installed on your local machine in addition to VS2012 in order to create a custom control?
(Designer.11.0 was added per the instructions in reference: https://connect.microsoft.com/VisualStudio/feedback/details/783391/unable-to-integrate-previously-working-ssrs-custom-report-item-to-vs-2012s-toolbox
After that I added the alias RSDesigner to it's properties and extern alias RSDesigner; at the top of the PolygonsDesigner.cs file. )
As of now, the top of the PolygonsDesigner.cs is as follows. I don't recall making any other changes to the code. As far as I can remember this is all I did in order to be able to compile the code in VS2012.
extern alias RSDesigner;
using System;
using System.ComponentModel;
using System.ComponentModel.Design;
using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Diagnostics;
using System.Drawing;
using System.Windows.Forms;
using Microsoft.ReportDesigner;
using Microsoft.ReportDesigner.Design;
using Microsoft.ReportingServices.Interfaces;
using Microsoft.ReportingServices.RdlObjectModel;
using System.Xml;
using System.Xml.Xsl;
using System.Xml.XPath;
[LocalizedName("Polygons")]
[Editor(typeof(CustomEditor), typeof(ComponentEditor))]
[ToolboxBitmap(typeof(PolygonsDesigner), "Polygons.ico")]
[CustomReportItem("Polygons")]
[ToolboxItem(typeof(RSDesigner::Microsoft.ReportDesigner.Shell.CRIToolboxItem))]
[System.CLSCompliant(false)]
public class PolygonsDesigner : CustomReportItemDesigner
{ etc...

Just fixed this myself.
It appears the documentation online is wrong and the sample code is missing a reference to a reporting services dll and an attribute.
What you need to do to get it working in VS2012 is add a reference to: Microsoft.ReportingServices.designer.11.0.dll to the PolygonsDesigner project and then add the following attribute to the PolygonsDesigner class: [ToolboxItem(typeof(Microsoft.ReportDesigner.Shell.CRIToolboxItem))]
I also removed the [System.CLSCompliant(false)] attribute.
You then recompile and place both dlls in C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 11.0\Common7\IDE\PrivateAssemblies directory and the PolygonsDesigner.dll into the C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSRS11.MSSQLSERVER\Reporting Services\ReportServer\bin
or what ever is you reporting services path.
You also need to change the Microsoft example for the rereportserver.config file to:
    <ReportItemDesigner>
   <ReportItem Name="Polygons" Type="Microsoft.Samples.ReportingServices.PolygonsDesigner, PolygonsDesigner" />
    </ReportItemDesigner>
    <ReportItems>
   <ReportItem Name="Polygons" Type="Microsoft.Samples.ReportingServices.PolygonsCRI,PolygonsCRI"/>
    </ReportItems>
Notice that I changed the namespaces and class to what is in the actual code so if you change it make sure you change it here.
And here in the RSReportDesigner.config:
<ReportItems>
      <ReportItem Name="Polygons" Type="Microsoft.Samples.ReportingServices.PolygonsCustomReportItem,PolygonsCRI" />
    </ReportItems>
    <ReportItemDesigner>
      <ReportItem Name="Polygons" Type="Microsoft.Samples.ReportingServices.PolygonsDesigner, PolygonsDesigner" />
    </ReportItemDesigner>
    <ReportItemConverter>
      <Converter Source="Chart" Target="Polygons" Type="PolygonsCRI.PolygonsConverter, PolygonsDesigner" />
    </ReportItemConverter>
Notice I haven't changed the last part as I didn't know what the PolygonsCRI.PolygonsConverter was.
And make sure the rssrvpolicy.config looks like this:
     <CodeGroup class="UnionCodeGroup" version="1" PermissionSetName="FullTrust" Description="This code group grants PolygonsCRI.dll FullTrust permission. ">
       <IMembershipCondition class="UrlMembershipCondition" version="1" Url="C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSRS10_50.SQLSERVER\Reporting Services\ReportServer\bin\PolygonsCRI.dll" />
    </CodeGroup>
After a restart of ssrs and relaunch of VS2012 I opened a test project and added the PolygonsDesigner.dll to the toolbox and it works.
