Magsafe and iGo (or other third party adapter)

I'm not sure if this is the right place to post this plea, and I'm guessing it isn't, since I can't believe nobody else has said this before:
Please either produce a Magsafe auto/car/air adapter for the or license the technology to a company like iGo. Traveling as a second class citizen to PC users is extremely frustrating.
If anyone knows of a better venue for this suggestion/request, don't hesitate to point me in the right direction.

When a PC user has a device that does multiple things and makes their business travel much less cluttered and on a Mac you don't have that option because Apple won't sell or license the technology, it says little for the business savvy of Apple and/or their support of the customer. To use a device that people are quite happy to own and use (the iGo for instance) people are buying a MagSafe power supply cutting the cable and soldering their own. You wouldn't do that if there wasn't a really compelling reason to do it. Apple should want to address this (license or sell their own) for either of two reasons. 1) Because their customers want it and 2) it is silly to talk about being green and constantly (unnecessarily) create new things that could have been just a tip and save the landfills. Unless of course, they don't really care about the planet
and yes I already called and sent an email. This discussion has been going on for quite some time and if they were listening, they could have heard. I'm disappointed in them. I also know the kind of comments there would be if it was Microsoft with a proprietary connector that did this.

  • Is there any dependency between third-party adapter and XI system service?

    Hi Friends,
    I'm developing a thrid-party JCA adapter(deployed under sap.com) on SAP XI? In the adapter, it will use "ModuleProcessor" EJB system service.
    I found sometimes if the JCA adapter cannot be started correctly, the other system service also not started. And checking the log, I found the reason the JCA adapter not started, is because the "ModuleProcessor" EJB system service is not started.
    so just want to know is there any dependency between third-party adapter and XI system service?
    Thanks & Regards,
    Jason

    Hi soo.richard,
    You say it could be intruders cutting in - same problem/solution as for any network I think. Access can be password protected or access limited via MAC address filtering. I'm not sure how Apple Tv works with a hidden SSID but that would be another option.
    Airplay itself can be password protected through the airplay settings.
    I'm not sure if Apple TV works with other authentication such as a password but maybe the manual will assist with this?
    Hope this helps.

  • Issue with Third Party Adapter for custom JCA Connector in Oracle 11g.

    Hi,
    For a proof of concept, I have created my own JCA Connector. I have deployed this connector in Weblogic and it works as expected.
    Now I am trying to call the JCA Connecter from the SOA Bus. For this I have create a SCA Composite with a simple Web Service to expose the composite, a Third Party Adaptor to wrap the JCA Connector and a Mediator to wire the Web Service and the Third Party Adapter together. For the Third Party Adapter I have created both the needed *.wsdl and _3P.jca file my self. The problem is that I could not find any documentation about the _3P.jca file, and it looks like it that this file is new for 11g.
    After some puzzling and debugging I am able to deploy the SCA Composite with the Third Party Adapter. Though when I test the exposed Web Service with the Enterprise Manager I get errors and a stack trace. The problem is that the Record Converter I have created receives the default XMLRecord implementation (oracle.tip.adapter.fw.record.XMLRecordImpl) and not the implementation of the XMLRecord I have created my self.
    So the question is does anybody know how to configure the Third Party Adapter so that it will use my custom implemenation of the XMLRecord interface (oracle.tip.adapter.api.record.XMLRecord) instead of the default implementation of the XMLRecord (oracle.tip.adapter.fw.record.XMLRecordImpl).
    I would suspect that it should be configured in the _3P.jca file, though I don't know how. The following is the content of the current _3P.jca file I am using.
    <adapter-config name="DiskAdapter" adapter="Disk Adapter" wsdlLocation="JCADiskConnector.wsdl"
                    xmlns="http://platform.integration.oracle/blocks/adapter/fw/metadata">
      <record-converter className="com.osc.jcaadapter.convert.DiskRecordConverter"/>
      <connection-factory location="jndi/diskcf" adapterRef=""/>
      <endpoint-interaction operation="Send" portType="Send_ptt">
        <use-record-converter addonNamespace="http://somecomp.com/DiskAdapter"/>
        <interaction-spec className="com.osc.jcaadapter.impl.DiskInteractionSpecImpl">
          <property name="FunctionName" value="do-it"/>
        </interaction-spec>
      </endpoint-interaction>
    </adapter-config>So I am hoping that some one knows how you should configure the Third Party Adapter so it uses my own implementation of the XMLRecord interface.

    Hi Simeon,
    That is a good suggestion, and I would certainly try to do that if I was not making a proof of concept. It would solve my problem of not getting the sub class of the XMLRecord.
    Though for making my proof of concept I found a 10g example that used sub classes of the XMLRecord, and that is why I wanted to get the same example to work on 11g.
    The alternative of passing a parameter through with InteractionSpecs, is an interesting though can not solve this problem. I don't have a problem with the javax.resource.cci.Record, I can determine the implementation of that in the conversion class it self.
    The problem is the XMLRecord generated by the Oracle SOA Adapter Framework, some how I need a way to influence that to generate the correct implementation of the XMLRecord.
    So your post is certainly helpfull if I was not trying to get this specific problem to work :).
    But I am afraid that I will end up in implementing your sugestion.
    Regards
    Maikel.

    Hi CCT,
    thanks for your response that helped me very much in my decision to buy MS3 or not.

    But they don't show how to import these third-part-plugins.

  • Home Monitoring and Control with a third party also monitoring and controllin​g?

    I was wondering if anyone has tried to install Home Monitoring and Control with a third party monitoring, and or controlling the same devices. I know many systems offer multiple control points such as auxilary control touch screens. Has anyone made this work? I have Z wave devices on my home security system (lighting), and would also like to monitor them via Verizon. Possibly also adding some energy monitoring and control, that is not available via my security company. My security monitoring company provide support through Alarm.com, but has limited energy monitoring to thermostat control and such.
    The only interactive control with my security company is for alarm monitoring and control, with limited lighting control. All of my devices are GE in the wall mounted lighting controls, and I would prefer to pay Verizon the few extra dollars for the additional features VIA the web, rather than pay Verizon. There used to be an energy package, that included the main power panel load and I thing Thermostat, but I believe some of the bundles have been split up.
    There are other options out there now, but I have neen exploring. My GE Switches are from the Lowes Iris system. Much less expensive, and can replace existing wall switches, not like the power cord switches. Plus the store is four miles from my house.

    I started with Verizon home monitoring, but if you read through the threads the service is extremely unreliable, still to this day. I am stillusing it, although I am waiting for a refund on the services that I have used since it is so bad but I bought a MiCasaVerde Vera3 system.  You pay appoximately $300 for the unit and there is no monthly charge and you get all the features plus pretty much unlimited types of z wave devices to use on it. I would seriously consider using that before Verizon.

  • Ship to party and vendor relation in third party process

    Hello Experts,
    I need your precious suggestions on my business requirement.
    When we create the third party sales order system creates the Purchase Requisition and further PO is created through purchasing department.
    Suppose in my third party sales order I have two items X & Y, and both need to deliver at two different ship to party XXX & YYY respectively. in order system determine plant 1000 for both materials based on plant determination (CMIR >> CMR >> MMR) and system generates PR.
    I know while converting the PR to PO system check Source list (ME01) to determine the vendor. my requirement is I want to determine Vendor based on ship to party in sales order. suppose ship to party locations for XXX and YYY are Bangalore and Pune respectively and in both place we have different vendor. Both vendor manufacture product X & Y. so I want system should pick the vendor according to ship to party.
    Is there any relation between ship to party and vendor which will work in third party processing ?
    Kindly explain how I can achieve this requirement.
    Thanks,

    I doubt this can't be achieved by SAP standard functionality. You may need to use user exit. Check Third party to purchase req user exit or purchase req user exit to fulfill the requirement.

  • Link between Inbound Delivery and Sales Order for Third Party

    Greetings Gurus,
    My client is using a third party business model in a retail setting that fulfills sales order via purchase req --> PO --> Inbound delivery with GR posting --> customer billing document created through batch based on the delviery quantity ('G' in item billing relavence) --> vendor invoice reciept happens subsquently.
    My question is this, is there an inexpensive (performance wise) way to link the customer billing and the inbound delivery?
    Since the inbound is not in the doc flow i don't think VBFA will suffice. I think the best route would be via schedule line back up, but i have yet to find a link.
    There are process implications for this link for reporting and customer service which are a critical to the business. Point will be rewarded for sound advice.
    Thanks for your help.

    Hi Daneil,
    Through the document flow VBFA you can capture the PO number and the link for what you have asked can be found from table EKBE. check out for field BELNR.

    Hi,
    What do you mean by saying "to RESTORE .EXE and .RAR file extentions " here?
    Any applications(or softwares) that with .EXE extention could not be run on your PC or only related to some specific application?
    Please take a look at the KB below:
    Can't open .EXE files in Windows 7 or Windows Vista
    Regarding .rar files, we might need some 3rd party tools to extract them and then take the install option.
    Hope this may help

  • Use NI LabView and LabView RT with third party PXI chassis

    I want to use NI LabView and LabView RT, some PXI chassis of N.I and
    some PXI chassis of Third Party( not N.I ) for diversity, How I will Install
    Pharlap ETS ( LabView RT ) on those third party PXI's.
    More simply
    Third party PXI chassis and controllers support LabView RT or not?
    Note: Mark Andre Hary [email protected] of Sensing Systems LLC answer to this question as:
    "You can't.  I think NI bought Pharlap, and they do not offer board support packages (BSPs) for non-NI PXI controllers.  There is no way to get LabVIEW-RT running on a controller not purchased from NI.  You will have to use a standard RTOS like Linux,VxWorks, or QNX.
    Regards

    As described in the web links below, the only way to run LabVIEW Real-Time for ETS on a third-party system would be to follow the procedure for desktop PC computers. You may find that your third party PXI controller may meet the requirements listed in the below link and you will be able to run Real-Time on the controller. If you decide to do this, you will need to purchase the LabVIEW Real-Time Desktop Deployment license (also linked below). After purchasing the deployment license, you will be sent boot disks that will install the real-time OS onto your system. There is no need to purchase Pharlap ETS from Ardence directly.
    http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/3efedde4322fef19862567740067f3cc/cb3434da94466dd286256e9e006bb775?OpenDocument
    http://sine.ni.com/nips/cds/view/p/lang/en/nid/13751
    Instead of using LabVIEW Real-Time for ETS, you could use LabVIEW Real-Time for RTX instead. This system allows you to run Windows and the Ardence Real-Time eXtensions (RTX) real-time kernel concurrently on one machine. Currently device support for LabVIEW RT for RTX systems is limited to RIO devices. This is all described in the below link.

  • Problems with enhancers, haxies, other third party apps?

    Many posts in Apple Discussions have blamed haxies and various third party apps for many opperational problems. I found the Dock so irritating (and the Launcher) that I primarily used OS 9 until 3 haxies were released with the classical drop down Apple Menu. I installed FruitMenu, Xounds and Application Enhancer November 11 2002 on 2 computers. I also have 3 GUI's installed. I have installed every OSX update and have had no problem of any type with computer operations. With each OSX update you should update your third party apps when required.

    Stick with Brand name RAM and reputable distributors.  Mac is finicky about low quality RAM
    Try OWC http://www.macsales.com/
    Crucial http://www.crucial.com/
    Most RAM comes with Lifetime guarenntee so return it where you got it.
