Hi, I' ll be San Antonio from 8-10th of Oct and want to buy an iphone 5. According to forums there is no unlucked yet. Thus, can i get simlocked but not contracted phone from any store? and is that possible to use that phone in Turkey without any prob.

If you purchase the phone at the full contract price and have no term left on your carrier contract, the carrier will unlock it for you. That's what I am doing with AT&T. I'll pay the full purchase price for the phone and since I don't have a contract with them, they will unlock it for you. It can be difficult to get it done since most of their customer service is very ill informed but I have had many discussions with them on their chat that I have records of them stating they will unlock any phone if you do not have an existing contract. It's the law.

My Macbook all of a sudden can't open Skype, Word, Excel, Powerpoint and Entourage. I have done research and read that it has something to do with malware and viruses. Please help I feel like I have tried everything!

This started a few days ago, when I noticed skype would not open and keeps quitting unexpectingly. Now it's all of my microsoft office programs. I have read horrible things on the internet about creeps building some sort of 'backdoor' through Mircosoft Word and are now able to access my macbook. I want to feel safe again and I want to be able to use skype again. I think I will delete Microsoft office until I find/can afford a better version.
I have tried deleting and re-installing the programs, PRAM-ing my mac, doing the utilities organizing thing, and I downloaded 4 different scanners (Cleanmymac, VirusBarrier Express, Bitdefender Virus Scanner, and ClamXav) to help get rid of this and only one scanner found a small file that was harmful. I need some advice PLEASE!
Thank you for your time!

Sorry I'm just getting to this now, but a lot going on today in this front. There is now a "K" version of Flashback and perhaps more going on.
A couple of considerations you need to be aware of.
It's clear from the results of your testing that the reason you were infected is because your Java is out of date, so it's important that you keep all your software up-to-date going forward.
But even that won't protect you from this new "K" version as Apple has not released the patch to it yet, so I encourage you to disable Java in all your browsers and consider doing so for everything by opening Java Preferences (located in /Applications/Utilities/) and unchecking the box next to "J2SE 6.0" and any other box that might be checked. If you find that some application(s) you need must use Java, then you should enable it only to run that application(s).
We cannot be certain that what you did totally killed the Trojan, so your best bet would be to restore your Mac back to where it was before you were infected using TimeMachine. If you don't have a TimeMachine backup or cannot determine the date of infection, then your safest solution is this one:
Courtesy of Linc Davis:
I suggest you take the following steps immediately:
1. Back up all data to at least two different devices, if you haven't already done so.
2. Boot from your recovery partition (if running Mac OS X 10.7 or later) or your installation disc (if running an earlier version of the Mac OS), launch Disk Utility, and erase the startup drive. This action will destroy all data on the drive, so you must be sure of your backups.
3. Install the Mac OS.
4. Reboot and go through the initial setup process to create an account. Don’t import anything from your backups at this stage.
5. If running Mac OS X 10.6.x or earlier, run Software Update.
6. Restore the contents of all the top-level subfolders of your home folder except “Library” from the most recent backup. You can also restore the files in the Library folder, but don’t restore any of its subfolders; only the files contained in those folders, and only if they’re visible in the Finder. Don’t restore any hidden files or folders, no matter where they are.
7. If you’re running Mac OS X 10.5.x or earlier, disable Java in Safari’s preferences, and leave it disabled until you upgrade to Mac OS X 10.6.8 or later, including all available updates. The Java web plugin is unsafe to use under older versions of the Mac OS. Note: I’m not referring to JavaScript, which is unrelated to Java, despite the similarity in the names.
8. Change every Internet password you have, starting with banking passwords. Check all financial accounts for unauthorized transactions. Take this step only after you’ve secured your system in the preceding steps, not before.
9. Reinstall your third-party software from fresh downloads or original media, not from backups which may be contaminated. If you use any third-party web browsers under Mac OS X 10.5.x or earlier, disable Java in their preferences, as you did with Safari in step 7.
Of course, as of this morning you should follow my instructions for disabling Java and ignore his, at least until Apple gets that Java patch out.
Pay particular attention to Step 8 no matter what you decide to do.

HT201272 I accidentally deleted an album from my iTunes library and now that i want to re download it is saying that it has already been purchased but i don't have it how do i get the album back?

I accidentally deleted an album from my itunes library and i want to buy it again but itunes is saying that i have already purchased it but i don't have it in my library. How do i buy the album again?

Sorry, but audiobooks cannot be downloaded more than once without charge, so if you don't have a viable backup, you may be out of luck. You can, however, contact the iTunes Store, explain the situation, and see if they can make an exception for you.

Limiting arrays and using lindex in regexp commands

Hello there,
Here's my second and extremely crap question/post with regards to EEM/TCL. I've been doing some googling and haven't really been able to find an answer to these questions. Probably more due to my lack of skill with the search bar than the information just not being out there. Hope you'll forgive me though.
1.     My first question is this. Say I want to get some output from a command. I'd like to see all the interfaces in the "show ip vrf interface command" for example. Not knowing how many interfaces there might be, there could be 10 or there could be 200, what's the best way of limiting a loop function after I have issued the following commands?
set _vrf_int [exec show ip vrf interface]
set _array_vrf_int [split $_vrf_int "\n"]
set $i 0
while {$i < 200} {
regexp {([A-Z]+[a-z]+[0-9]+).*} [lindex $_array_vrf_int $i] _complete_string _int
inc $i 1
Not 100% sure the syntax is correct, sorry. If I only have 10 interfaces then there isn't going to be a need to issue this loop 200 times for "$_array_vrf_int". It also wouldn't be great if I went over 200 interfaces. Is there a way I can limit this loop based on the number of lines that were captured after the split function?
2.    The value of the regexp above is output to the var $_int. Is there a way I can output the regexp to an array? a'la:-
regexp {([A-Z]+[a-z]+[0-9]+).*} [lindex $_array_vrf_int $i] _complete_string [lindex $_int $i]
Syntax there definitely isn't correct but I guess there might be a way to do this. Any thoughts?
3.     I've been doing some comparisons on some output to see if an access-list is present on an interface. I can get a regexp to pull back the name of the access-list on a particular interface but if no access-list exists can I do an if statement on nothing?
set _acl_name 0
regexp {.*ip access-group (.*) in} $_running_int _complete_string _acl_name
if {$_acl_name != 0} {puts "there is a access-list on $_int"} else {puts "there's no acl on $_int :-("}
In the output above I'm setting the value of "$_acl_name" to zero so that I can compare it in the if statement. This seems like a crap newbie way to do it though. Is there some kind of wildcard I can put in place of the "0" to match an empty variable. a'la {null}.
4.     Sorry last question. Can I also reset the variable to {null} using a similar wildcard. Again I can reset the variable to 0 but it just seems like I don't understand the syntax well enough and there is probably a better method.
5.     I've read several tutorials that cover alot of the basics. Is there a good reference anyone can suggest so I don't waste any more of your time with these silly questions? I'm afraid the scripts I've studied on this forum are still way over my head.
Many thanks in advance
Alex

Hi Joseph,
Thanks again for all your help. Sorry it's taken a while to respond. If I'm honest, you'd cooked me with your response and I wanted to give your reply some decent time to digest and gain some level of understanding. It's been a few years since I was 17, learning pascal and I'm finding the whole tcl scripting particularly hard to get my head around. After the third level of if/for/foreach with nested split commands etc my brain seems to lose the plot. Never the less I shall persist.
Using the information you've kindly provided I've since got a nice tclsh only script that will look through a routers vrf interfaces, pick out the ones that have a particular vrf, check each one for an inbound access-list, confirm the access-list meets certain criterial based on a switch/regexp function and finally report on lines that shouldn't be there or are missing all together. The "unset" command wasn't useful in this scenario unfortunately. It seems to explicitly delete the variable together and so I can't check if it's empty or not. I've instead resorted to setting the list variable I was using to 0 for all entries before with the switch function that if matched sets an individual entry to 1 before they are checked at the end to ensure they were all matched. I'm sure it's not the most elegant script in the world and due to the extensive use of the "exec" command, I couldn't actually use it. Still I'm getting there, abiet very slowly. The hours that I've spent playing with tcl are certainly racking up now. I just hope my knowledge is too.
Thanks for the suggestion on the book. I checked and it is indeed the one I purchased 2 years ago when my interest in eem was first captured. It's unfortunately very thick and slightly scary! It also doesn't have any examples of combining switch/regexp functions together, which is a bit annoying considering that's the first thing I've tried to use it for. Hopefully I'll find it very useful as my understanding gets alittle greater though.
Anyway, thank you again for your extremely helpful responses. Until the next stupid question!
Kind regards
Alex

Is there a way to select a certain box of elements from a csv file and read that into LabVIEW?

Hello all, I was wondering if there was a way to select only a certain "box" of elements from a .csv file in LabVIEW? I have LabVIEW 2011 and my main goal is to take two arrays and graph them against each other. I can import the .csv file just fine and separate each row and each column to be its own, but say I have an 8X8 but want to graph the middle 4X5 or something like that. Is there any way to extract an array without starting at the beginning and without ending at the end? Thank you in advance.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hi Szklanam,
as a CSV file is just a TXT file with a different suffix you can read a certain number of lines of that file. So you can limit the number of rows in your resultung array. To limit the number of columns you still have to use ArraySubset, so maybe it's a lot easier to read the full CSV file and pick the interesting spots with ArraySubset...

Is it possible to keep the outline auto formatting from Pages when copying and pasting that outline to the Presenter Notes on Keynote?

I have been using my iPad for my notes, but I want to start using it as a remote for my macbook. When I copy and paste the notes into the Presenter Notes section of Keynote on the macbook, it unformatted. Any bullet point formatting that I do on my macbook is not showing on my iPad's Remote view Presenter Notes. Is there a way to create consistency here that does not involved formatting each one separately?

Use Drag and Drop
Have both applications open side by side
select the text in Pages
with the mouse drag the text from pages into presenter Notes pane in Keynote

How to extract row_id from PL/SQL procedure and assign that to batch script

Hello Team,
I am stuck with a requirement, wherein I am running a batch script and within the batch script I am calling a procedure which inserts a record in a table (Including a column named l_id).
I need this generated l_id to be passed on as a variable to batch script after PL/SQL procedure completion. So that I can refer this same l_id to update the same record in the table again in the same batch script in the later part.
Looking for some suggestions!!!!
Thanks

Looking for some suggestions!!!!Don't do this using batch scripts. Batch scripts are very much inferior compared to stored PL/SQL code when it comes to managing databases processes and performing data crunching.
Why can't this be written entirely in PL/SQL? And execution managed from either DBMS_JOB or DBMS_SCHEDULER ? And before answering that, consider the following:
- what is the superior language, PL/SQL or shell script?
- what provides tighter integration with the database, PL/SQL or shell script?
- what provides proper security and access control, PL/SQL or shell script?
As you can call SQL*Plus from a shell script to run PL/SQL, you can call a shell script from PL/SQL instead to run external commands and processes.
Use the right tool for the job. And shell scripting is an excellent tool - but only when correctly used. Are you using it correctly? I strongly doubt that...

Setting from pp for FICO and activities that are related to that

Hi Can any one of you help to get list of settings including master data and configuration , the process activities related for FICO performed by PP Consultant.

Hi Kalyan,

2) Production / process order type & assignment of settlement rule.
3) Product base cost / order base cost.

LR 5.3 err on startup: LR encountered an error when reading from its preview cache and needs to quit

I just got this message today while i was trying to move some files via LR.
I've researched and found that everyone else was able to fix their issue by moving the preview database out of LR, tried that but it doesn't fix the problem.
I've moved all files except the new preview and catalog (only a single catalog) database from the Picture/Lightroom folder
I've rebooted the computer several times and tried opening LR, still no joy.
The size of my catalog is 3.8GB
The size of the preview is 6.5GB (77,186 files in 45,745 folders).
This is a new install from scratch on a new PC,
Specs are:
Intel i7 4770
32GB memory
2 x 250GB SSD drive in RAID 1 for OS and apps
1 x 6TB SATA HDD for images in a RAID 5
1 x 5.3TB SATA HDD for final images in a RAID 5
I've had nothing but issues with this system since day 1, images transferred and they do not show up correcting inthe individual folders (especially 2012). Total image count is about 320,000
Seems to me that LR cannot handle the numbers although LR3.6 was a lot stable this version is shakey all over the place. Have not had a decent day of work since some 6 weeks ago when i made the change. Victoria has been helping me a lot with working out the images issues and I think we ran into a corruption the other day.. after a few runs of the optimise feature in which case it crashed on the first 2 attempts I thought we had gotten past this, but instead today it presented me with a new error.
So I do hope this can be resolved as I'm losing time in getting work out...
Thanks...
Jon

Well, well what do you know.. it just came up..
I moved all files from the LR folder except the catalog, rebooted and it came up...
I guess the next thing to do is to get the previews back.
Hope this is a good sign...

Question Mark File, Holding Down Option/Alt, Cursor Appears But Usual Icons (HDD) and (Recovery Disk) Do Not

Hello out there,
My Macbook Pro (coming on 2 years old now) recently had issues with starting up. I found on Apple's website the support forum which stated holding down alt while booting will allow you to choose either your HDD or a Recovery Disk. For the past few reboots I was able to do this, maybe over a 36 hour period (I always chose HDD.) Now, though, when I hold down alt and power on the notebook, only the cursor appears over a gray screen. No icons show up at all. When I press "N" the usual globe across a disk drive blinks. I've also tried to boot up holding down shift but to no avail.
I have a ton of documents that weren't backed up. If I throw in the OS X Leopard disc and reinstall from there, I know I'll lose all my data. Is there anyway Apple could find those files after the reset, or does the Drive just get wiped completely? What do you recommend I should do? Take it into Apple? I don't want to lose these files but I also don't want to pay Apple to do something I can do — put in the original disk and reinstall OS X.
Thanks so much! I owe you a beer! ^_^

Could be more than the power. HDD could be old, or just the file system on the disk.
Try ...
Get the external disk, self-powered, at least 2x the current disk
Boot the system from install disks (original) and prepare that disk as two partitions (GUID, with Journaled partitions)
Load the OS onto one of those partitions
Download CarbonCopyClone, and clone the current install disk to the second partition of that external
If the filesystem on the disk or the disk itself is too damaged, copy what you can
You would have a bootable system if nto Lion, with a copy of the data that is on the disk (hopefully).
This is my best advice to at least try to save your data without relying on the internal disk for file operations. You may yet be SOL, but this is a darned good effort to avoid data loss.
And hope the repair bill does not cover so much that a new system is required.
