Microsoft DPM 2010 no longer works for WSS 3.0 SP3 farm since moving farm to new SQL cluster

Hi,
I've had Microsoft DPM (first 2007, then 2010) backing up my WSS 3.0 SP3 farm since 2009. This weekend, I had to migrate the WSS farm to a new SQL 2008 SP1 cluster. I am using a SQL alias after the move. I mean, I set the alias up several
weeks before the move, but the alias name and server name were the same - SQL01. Now the alias name is SQL01 and the server name is SQL02. I know, that's exactly the way you shouldn't do it, but this farm is just months away from being decommissioned,
so I don't want to rock the boat.
So, here's the problem. Right after the SQL migration, I get a warning in DPM at the start of a recovery point creation session that states that all of the content databases have been deleted from the farm and are no longer protected. I thought
the best thing to do would be to delete and recreate the protection group. Big mistake. I deleted the protection group, that was just protecting the farm, and kept the replica data (14 weeks worth). When I try to create a new protection group,
I can expand the SharePoint farm underneath the assigned WFE, but I get the dreaded pop-up: "DPM cannot protect this SharePoint farm as it cannot detect the configuration of the dependent SQL databases. (ID: 32008)" I've verified that the three
suggested items in the error message are indeed functioning correctly, but I cannot get past this error. The WFE appears to be configured correctly, as I have run the enablesharepointprotection command using an account that is both a farm admin and a
local admin on the WFE. When I run resolveallsqlaliases, it does show all of my content databases with the appropriate alias name and logical path. On the SQL server, both the SQL Server VSS writer and Volume Shadow Copy services are up and running,
as well as the DPMRA service, which I manually started when trying to create the protection group. I have the SQL Server VSS Writer service running as the same farm admin account that I configured on the WFE.
So, I'm not sure where to go next. It appears that the issue doesn't lie with the WFE since it can enumerate all of the content databases correctly. Is there something I'm missing on the SQL server? Oh, and I have the VSS and DPMRA services
set up the same on both nodes. I've been working on this since yesterday and I'm at my wits end!
Any help or suggestions would be much appreciated!
Thanks,
Mike

How much content is in the farm and when are you planning to decommission it?

My ringer is no longer working for text and email notifications. Only working for phone calls. I have gone through all the settings to see where something is off. Not finding anything. I have tried changing the tone and it just vibrates on everything.

Ok so I happened to figure it out while on the phone to apple support. Even though the guy was very nice, I think I knew more than him! He was explaining very basic resolution principles I played about. I had the second option in displays resolution. All I did was unplug the HDMI cable, click on 'best for display' then plugged the HDMI in and my resolution on the normal monitor changed to the normal blue, then went black momentarily and then changed to a strange resolution but another window appeared that said SONY BRAVIA HDMI at the top! Hey presto! Don't know why it didn't do it yesterday - I probably left the HDMI cable in or something! Oh well. Problem solved!

Command plus is no longer working for me correctly in Safari 8.0.2.

Command plus is no longer working for me correctly in Safari 8.0.2. When I use it to zoom in a safari window, it makes fonts bigger instead of scaling the entire page bigger like it used to. What changed or what did I accidentally change? This is only happening in Safari. When I use Command Plus in a Chrome or firefox browser window, it works perfectly still.
To explain this a little better, I have a 27" iMac. When I open a browser widow in safari like yahoo.com, The content fits in about a 10.5" section of the screen. If i go to full screen or enlarge the window to fit the full screen the same 10.5" content is centered in my screen. Previously, I could use Command Plus to zoom and the entire page would scale increasing from 10.5" to eventually filling the screen. Now when I use command plus, the font's get bigger and bigger but the page width stays at 10.5"

Hi petraidm,
Welcome to the Support Communities! If I'm understanding you correctly, it appears you have updated Safari to the latest version, but are still using Mountain Lion as your operating system, is that correct?
You may need to adjust your screen resolution, or the zoom settings in the Accessibility pane of System preferences. Usually, zooming changes the size of text or content in a window -- not the size of the window itself. So I usually go to full screen mode in Safari, and then zoom in if I need to enlarge the text.
OS X Mountain Lion: Zoom content on the screen
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH11488
If you have difficulty seeing or reading items on the screen, you can use Accessibility preferences to magnify items on the screen. You can zoom the entire screen or zoom the area that has keyboard focus in a separate window.
Set up zoom
Choose Apple menu > System Preferences, click Accessibility, and then click Zoom.
Do either of the following:
To zoom with keyboard shortcuts, select “Use keyboard shortcuts to zoom.”
To zoom with your mouse or trackpad, select “Use scroll gesture with modifier keys to zoom.”
Choose where the magnified content appears with the Zoom Style pop-up menu.To display it in a window near the mouse cursor, choose Picture-in-picture. To display it on the entire screen, choose Fullscreen.
To set options for zoom or the zoom window, click More Options.More Options panel
You can also turn on zooming by pressing Command (⌘)-Option (⌥)-F5 and selecting options in the Zoom section.
Zoom with keyboard shortcuts
To zoom in, press Command (⌘)-Option (⌥)-Equal Sign (=). To zoom out, press Command (⌘)-Option (⌥)-Minus Sign (-).
If you chose Picture-in-picture zooming, a window appears near the mouse cursor with the magnified image. If you chose the Fullscreen zooming, the entire screen displays the magnified image.
Zoom with a mouse or trackpad
To zoom in and out, hold down the modifier key you specified while you perform the scroll gesture.
For example, if you have a trackpad and used the default settings, zoom in by holding down the Control (^) key while you drag two fingers up on the trackpad. Zoom out by holding down the Control key while you drag two fingers down on the trackpad.
If you chose Picture-in-picture zooming, a window appears near the mouse cursor with the magnified image. If you chose Fullscreen zooming, the entire screen displays the magnified image.

My facebook app no longer works for my iphone after i sync it to my laptop!

Why does my facebook app no longer works for my iphone after i sync it to my mac book pro?
I added this app for facebook and then i synced it up with my mac book pro, but afterwards it lost the app, and I can't download it anymore... why is that?
And how do I manage to put it back on my iphone?

Hello hersheygirle,
Welcome to the Discussions Boards.
Re-download the Facebook APP on your computer and then sync it to the iPhone.
Make sure your computer is logged into the same iTunes ID that shows up on your iPhone when you try to download an APP on the iPhone.

Bluetooth no longer works for incoming calls after recent update

When I updated my Bluetooth to iOS 6, the Bluetooth no longer works for incoming calls. I press button to answer call, it makes a small cracking noise, and then sends the call to my phone. I can use the Bluetooth for outgoing calls and it works just fine. I was hoping when I updated to iOS 6.0.1 that the problem would be fixed. I have uninstalled and reinstalled Bluetooth but that has not helped either. I am frustrated. I have a LG HBM-905 Bluetooth that I loved prior to this problem.

Magically started working today after I synced.

I suggest you do one of two things:

RoboForm Lite no longer works for Firefox 17 windows 7 and server 2008r2

Greetings,
RoboForm Lite no longer works for Firefox 17 windows 7 and server 2008r2 I tried to reinstall but none of the tabs function . Thank you for your assistance

'''roboform_firefox:'''
The original poster (OP) reported his/her OS as Windows 7 in the body of the question, therefore, your solution would be of no use to the OP. You can also see the OS for the system used by the OP to post the question to the right of the original question in this forum .
Additionally, using an old version of Firefox is ill-advised as old versions contain uncorrected security vulnerabilities. Roboform has been very good lately in keeping their products updated for new Firefox releases and any problems with their products should be reported to them so that they can address any issues and release an update if needed.

E no longer works for my company

I need to reset my new work phone that is a iphone 4. The only problem is it won't let me because its been set up by the person who had the phone first and he no longer works for my company

Have your IT department get proof that the company was the original purchaser of that
iPhone 4. Then either take that proof and the iPhone to a physical Apple store or whoever
provides iPhone support for your location or contact Apple for assistance.

When you say "mouse button", do you mean clicking on the controls in the upper left of the iTunes window or do you mean that you have special media keys on your mouse?
