Midnight opening question

If a store is open for a midnight release on a few games and one of the games coming out on that day is not one of the three listed, would I still be able to pick it up at midnight with the others?
WWE 2K15 isn't on the midnight releases, but say if I want to get that with Dragon Age at midnight, would I be able to do so?

Hey kingofoldschool,
Good question! Many of our stores will allow customers to purchase other titles released the same day during our midnight opening events, but this varies by location. The best advice we can give would be to contact your preferred location and ask an on-site rep for details.
I hope this helps.

Titanfall Midnight Opening Question

I just joined GCU recently and attempted to preorder Titanfall in store but was told it was too close to release to preorder. So I went home and preordered Titanfall from bestbuy.com with in store pickup on release day.
If my Best Buy does a midnight launch what is the chance that I will be able to pick up my copy at midnight? Thanks.

Hello hoofrog,
I wanted to chime in real quickly to let you know that we have posted the store listing for the Titanfall Midnight Opening so you can check to see if your local store is participating. To do this, visit the Titanfall landing page and scroll down to “Related Offers.” You’ll see a link for “March 11 Midnight Store Openings” there that you can click on and select your state. The stores that populate for the chosen state are the ones that will be participating.
Thanks again for posting and let us know if you have any questions!

Destiny Midnight Opening and Release Week FAQ

Destiny finally releases on 9/9/14 and select Best Buy stores will be opening at 12:01 a.m. that night to let you be the first to play. To help answer any questions you may have about the midnight opening process and the release in general, we’ve put together this FAQ.
Midnight Opening Questions
Q: How do I know if my local store is participating in the midnight openings for Destiny?
A: You can visit BestBuy.com/GamingEvents to find all participating locations for the Destiny release. Once you’re there, select your state to view a list of participating locations in the selected state.
Q: If I pre-ordered Destiny either in-store or for Store Pickup can I go to any Best Buy that is having a midnight opening to pick up my reserved game?
A: If you pre-ordered on BestBuy.com and your order is to be picked up at a Best Buy store it must be picked up from the location that you selected when you placed your pre-order. If you pre-ordered in-store, you will need to go to the location where your order was placed to pick up your game.
Q: Do I need to be at the midnight opening event at my location to pick up my pre-ordered copy of Destiny?
A: All pre-orders will be held for a specified number of days after launch so you do not need to attend the midnight opening. For BestBuy.com Store Pickup pre-orders, your items will be held for 8 days. For pre-orders placed in-store, your items will be held for 5 days. After those timeframes, any orders that have not been picked up will be made available for purchase to others.
Q: If I’m attending a midnight opening to pick up a pre-order, what do I need to bring with me?
A: If you placed your pre-order on BestBuy.com for Store Pickup, please bring the following:
Your government-issued photo ID
The credit or debit card used for the purchase (if a credit card was used)
Your order number
If you placed your pre-order in a store, please bring the following:
Your government-issued photo ID
Your deposit receipt you received when you placed the pre-order
Q: What time should I arrive at the store on the night of the midnight opening?
A: The processing of pre-orders can begin at participating stores at 11:30 p.m. local time. While your pre-order may be processed before midnight, no copies of Destiny will be given to customers or allowed to leave the store until 12:01 a.m.
Q: I didn’t pre-order a copy of Destiny. Will I be able to show up at a midnight opening and purchase one?
A: Pre-ordered copies of the game will be held and processed first during the midnight opening. Any copies still available after all pre-orders are accounted for will be made available for purchase.
Q: Will I be able to get the advertised Destiny T-Shirt if I attend a midnight opening?
A: Our midnight opening stores will have a limited number of Destiny T-Shirts for those in attendance. These will be available on a first-come, first-served basis and will only be available while supplies last. Stores will have sizes ranging from small to extra large of the shirt, but again, they are limited quantity and only available while supplies last.
General Release Questions
Q: I pre-ordered Destiny for Store Pickup. Will I receive an email when it is ready?
A: You should receive an email the day before release indicating your order is ready, but you will still need to wait until the release date of 9/9/14 to actually pick up the game.
Q: I pre-ordered the Digital Guardian Edition of Destiny. When will I receive my download?
A: The codes for the Digital Guardian Edition will begin to go out shortly after midnight CST on 9/9/14.
Q: How will I receive the Vanguard Armory pre-order bonus if I pre-ordered Destiny?
A: The codes for the Vanguard Armory pre-order bonus will be included in the packaging of the game.
Q: I am a My Best Buy member and should receive $10 in reward certificates for pre-ordering and purchasing Destiny. When should I receive this?
A: The 500 point bonus equal to $10 in reward certificates will post to your My Best Buy account within 15-20 days of the pre-order being fulfilled.
Q: There is an offer this week to get a free Gamers Club Unlocked Membership with the purchase of an Xbox One or PS4 console. Can I get this offer if I pre-ordered the Destiny PS4 Bundle?
A: If you pre-ordered this bundle and would like the free Unlocked membership, there are a couple ways to go about doing so.
If you placed your pre-order in-store with a deposit, the store should be able to add the membership to the pre-order redemption transaction.
If you pre-ordered for shipping or Store Pickup, your best option will be to fulfill your pre-order and then return and re-purchase it in-store with the Unlocked membership. This is to ensure that you still receive your $10 in reward certificates from our “Get $10” offer, provided you are a My Best Buy member, and because we are currently only able to process Unlocked membership enrollments in-store. If you are not a My Best Buy member and therefore not eligible for the “Get $10” offer, you could also cancel your pre-order and then purchase the console in-store with the Unlocked membership.

Hi wowzors,
I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but we aren't able to change the name associated with any pre-order. Friends and Family pickup options can also only be added to BestBuy.com orders at the time of checkout, and cannot be added once the order has been placed. You may, however, want to speak with a manager on duty at the store if you haven't already done so. While I cannot make any guarantees, they may be able to help you find an alternative solution.
For additional information on the midnight opening process and for more release week information, please view our post here.
Thanks for reserving your copies of Destiny with us!

Destiny Midnight Opening

I have a quick question regarding the destiny preorders I placed.
I have one preorder for the Ghost Edition and one prorder for the Limited edition, will I be able to pick these up at my stores midnight opening? If not how long will these be held?
I recently found out today that I am being sent out of town on a business trip from September 9th till September 12th so if I can't pick them up at the midnight openeing the earliest I could would be Friday night. Can I permit someone else to pick them up for me?
Thank you for your help.

Open question on lines TOUCHing or CONNECTing

posted as an open question/discussion:
the TOUCH mask for spatial operators between lines is both valid (among others) for
|
|
|--------------
|
Horizontal Line boundary intersecting with Vertical line interior
as
|
|
|__________
Horizontal Line boundary intersecting at Vertical line boundary
The question is:
could it be useful to have a specific operator distinction between the first and second situation, to distinguish those situation?
this could allow for quickly query/analyse lines that are CONNECTing excluding the first situation, using only sdo_relate with a CONNECT mask?
this means the following 9i element matrix cases (now all TOUCH) could be CONNECT:
10*0*1*11, allowing only 1 or both line boundaries intersecting at another line boundary(ies).
(I know an alternative is using sdo_relate with one of the spatial functions in the select clause.)

Luc,
Thanks.
I think that it would be a good idea. I am sure if I sat down and thought for a moment I would come up with a good business situation that it would help with.
My current client is a UK environment organisation and they capture certain environmental features as invidual lines which join together to make a feature. Within the Oracle table the component parts are stored in separate rows with attributes to piece them together. I am sure your proposal would help to provide another easy solution.

Open Question: question to those who comment about the lack of apps for Windows Phone 8

We have read every Lumia review and we are listening. An open question to those who comment about the lack of apps for Windows Phone 8.Tell us which apps you miss? Nokia/MSFT Customer Care

The major apps that are missing are Banking Apps. There are a few, but major banks like Regions Bank, Capital One Bank, are nowhere to be found for Windows Phone. Microsoft should be pursuing these banks to develop apps for the platform. Maybe bribe them with free software or tech support or something. Also some of the dating apps like Grindr for the gay community, Blender for the straight community, are lacking as well. Perhaps Microsoft could assist them in developing the "unified" app for both Windows and Windows Phone?
In fact, Microsoft would do well to begin a "Developer Assistance Program" where developers could (for a small fee) contact the DAP Center and get assistance with issues creating apps for the Windows Platform. If developers know they have a source to go for assistance, they may be more inclinded to develop better apps.

Closed Auto Loan Reporting As Open Question

I have an auto loan reporting across all bureaus as open but in good standing. I suppose that is well and good except for the fact that the loan was closed in Dec of last year. My question...would having the loan shown as open reduce my credit score or do you think it's helping? I've heard having a loan of that nature close can reduce your score so I'm not sure what to do about it. Any input is appreciated. Thanks!

Well, see whether you get any other feedback from other folks on here. But if I were you, I'd just end up having some low grade anxiety if I had a record on my report that claimed I owed a big chunk of money for something I didn't. The explanation, I assume, is that the creditor never updated the record to show that you paid off the loan. Unless someone here tells you differently, I'd reach out to the lender and confirm with them that they agree that you paid off the loan in December. If they do agree, explain that they haven't yet updated the final status of the account to show that you paid it off -- and ask them to do that. That way you'll end up with an accurate report that shows future creditors that you can manage and pay off a car loan. I have allowed incorrect data to stay on my report when it is absolutely 100% positive. This is a bit of a mixed bag: a record that falsely asserts you still owe a creditor a good chunk of change. Whetever benefit you get out of it being "open" doesn't seem worth it to me. But see what other people say.

Window.opener question

Hello,
I understand that the windeo.opener reference the parent window. My question is, if I have a parent page and this page calls page2 and page2 calls page3, how can I reference the parent page from page3?
I am using window.opener."the applet name" but I get an error:
Something like:
The callee server is unavailable and has disappeared.
Can anyone help me solve this problem??? Please let me know if I can provide more information..

When working with javascript in multiple windows like this, it is very easy to get lost.
I think what you missed in accessing your applet was a "document" object.
There are a couple of hints for writing javascript:
1 - you can type javascript into the address bar like so:
javascript:alert(window.opener)
You then follow the path to the object you want as long as you can. Build it up slowly, so you see where the chain breaks.
javascript:alert(window.opener.opener)
javascript:alert(window.opener.opener.document)
javascript:alert(window.opener.opener.document.applets)
javascript:alert(window.opener.opener.document.applets.length)
2 - General design: Don't reference stuff on other pages - call functions on the page only.
Rather than calling window.opener.opener.document.applets[0]. (ie referring to the applet from window 3)
do this
window.opener.opener.saveApplet() (from window 3 call the saveApplet function on window1)
and on the first page have
<script>
function saveApplet(){
document.applets[0]. ...
</script>
This provides a sort of interface for other pages to use, so they don't have to refer to details on the page.
If you change the layout of the page, or the name of the applet etc etc, you only have this one place to modify it. It can save you a nightmare in javascript errors later on.
Good luck,
evnafets

I have not preordered, will that affect anything at all?
Thanks

A midnight opening for the Iphone 4S?

I wish best buy would open at midnight for the Iphone 4s release. I doubt this has ever happened. They would get a great jump on the other stores as far as sales go.

Check out www.safeware.com or www.worthavegroup.com, but AppleCare + is new and it covers 2 instances of accidental damage and pay a $49 fee for avreplacement

Self-closing an open question

How can I mark a question as answered when I've managed to determine the solution myself and posted it as a reply to my own question? I marked the "My Question is Answered" checkbox, but it was ignored when I submitted my reply. (I am the only one to have posted to the thread).

If you give the link to that thread, I can post an "Already answered" message, and the you can use that to declare the question as answered. Too simple to be true?

Photo images from dig. cam [one is error and other won't open] questions

My wife inserted the sd card in the card reader and copied about 70 photo image files to the Mac. The camera that took all the 70 photos was a Panasonic DMC-LZ5 but I don't think the camera model matters much here.
For the first time, 2 of the many images seem to be corrupt. Mac X reports one photo image has an error while trying to open and reports the second image won't open.
My main concern is whether or not to just delete the two error/corrupt jpg images. My other main concern is that I don't want to keep the two images if it could affect or corrupt my hd or Mac system in some way.
I normally just trash corrupted files; however, in this case I went ahead and attempted to open both of the 2 troubled files myself later and they both opened up in Preview and didn't report any error or corruption. However, one of the jpg images defintely is corrupt when viewing it as the bottom of the image is definitely messed up. However, the other image now opens perfectly and looks fine to the eye as if nothing is wrong with it.
Here is a link to the one photo image that isn't quite right [note the obvious distortion at bottom of image]. Link is http://mysite.verizon.net/vzenvo78/question595.jpg
Further very relevant information: The SanDisk sd card that all the 70 images were on is a 1 gig card and the sd card seems to be a total loss. The sd card can't be initialized/formatted by disk utility and furthermore the sd card is no longer recognized by the Panasonic camera - the Panasonic camera won't even preview the images off the card or allow me to format the card even from the camera.

Hello,
I see what you are talking about. I just discovered this same exact problem on a friends G5 after he uploaded pics from his Leica.
This is what I did: I ran Disk Utility from the system restore disc to verify and repair the drive. DU reported Volume Bitmap problems. DU was able to repair the disc. Next, I created a new user account and tried uploading the images from the camera to the G5 and it worked just fine. The images loaded like they should.
I also reinstalled the drivers that came with the camera.
Delete any files that your Mac reports as a problem. It's just not worth leaving them on the drive.
So...... run Disk Utility from your system restore disc. If it reports errors, hopefully DU can repair them. If not, one option is to get DiskWarrior here:
www.alsoft.com or TechToolPro4 here: www.micromat.com
One other idea is how old is the card?
Next idea is to create a new user acccount: System Prefs/Accounts. Try using that account to upload the same images. See if they upload as they should. If they do, then the issue isn't system wide, it's just in the other user account.
Remember to always back up your images/audio/data often as you never know when you might need to do either an Archive or Erase and Reinstall.

Another iTunes won't open question

When opening iTunes, I receive the "iTunes has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience." My system is a Microsoft Windows XP Professional Version 2002 with Service Pack 1. It is equiped with McAfee EPO, McAfee Virus Stinger, and McAfee Virus Scan (work computer, of course). I ran the updated version of iTunes, which didn't fix the issue. I ran a system restore to correct anything changes made to my laptop over the holiday break, but that didn't help either. I also attempted to remove QuickTime, but my system won't allow me to do so. Any suggestions?

Progress of sorts....
Go to Start > Control Panel > Add/Remove
Get rid of any iTunes or QuickTime, if you find them there.
Then download QuickTime standalone
http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/standalone.html
Save it to your hard drive and run the install from your PC.
Then go get iTunes, run the install from your hard drive.
Let us know...

Midnight commander questions. menu file & associations file

hi! i use tuxcmd all time, but find myself interested in try mc, first because it can be transparent and integrates with my transparent desktop:
but i read this manual http://www.chm.tu-dresden.de/edv/mc/mc4.5/manual1.html and dont know how to make a couple of things in first place...
1. when i start mc it sorts files in a confusing (for me) way tuxcmd shows me first the "dot" directories, next the "not dot" directories , next the "dot" files and finally the files, all in alphabetic order. how to achieve that sorting in mc?
2. in tuxcmd i have the options to sort (maintaining the number 1 item sort fashion) by date (newest files first) by name, by extension. how to do this in mc?
3. in tuxcmd i add to it a lot of file associations to my common use files, like when i right click a media file, i have my programs like open with mplayer, xine, vlc, ffmpeg -i (shows me info about the file), etc. what file or what i need to do to have file associations like that in mc? so i can just double click the file and it opens with his associated program?
THANKS!!!
