More or less activated in Alaska

All right, 2 days into this thing and I have dealt with 10 AT&T people - with about a 50% chance of getting someone helpful.
Okay, so I ordered an iPhone and had it shipped to Anchorage - Knowing full well of the situation I would endure trying to get it activated. Someone had to try. So I did.
On Monday night (after receiving my iPhone earlier in the day) I went through the iTunes process of porting my Alaska # with a 907 area code to an address in Washington state. No go, I expected that. I got the standard "more info required" email and called the #. The person I spoke with (who was obviously given the job out of some sort of required hiring practice, he had no idea what he was doing) kindly canceled out the process so I could start over.
So I tried again - This time using a suggestion of porting my AK 907 # and using the "other" option of where the phone will be used during the activation and entering the Washington address I tried before.
Processing. . Hours later. . . More info required.
So we canceled the process again, and started over.
note the iPhone is still in brick mode.
This third time around I accepted I had been defeated and tried to sign up using my WA address and getting a new # (using the 'GoPhone' method).
Well, I got an email almost instantly saying "more information needed".
So I called. Aparently the SSN # Method is being screened for now and failing a credit check will not fly.
SO, being it was still daylight out here in Alaska - I was feeling curious and tried porting my AK # one more time using the 'other' option again. I got the email asking for 'more info' and called... again...
And the guy I spoke with thought since Alaska was in the process of getting AT&T that he could port my # to the WA address and we could transfer it back to AK once the 'Switch' had been made.
And to my suprise my iPhone sprang to life. I received an email saying my '907 ... ....' # was being ported! Happy day!
But. Its been 22 hours and nothing has happened with my #. I can still use my old cellphone. I called AT&T support and they show my # is in the porting process. One rep said I needed to wait the full 24 hours. Another said this should not be possible. One hung up on me. One answered the phone and said the wrong company name and hung up.
So now, I wait. I check the status of my port with the automated # and get a "its in process message". Somehow I doubt anything will come of this. I'll let you know.
Sorry if this is really long. 24 hours on the phone with AT&T - no sleep.
iMac G5 (2.1GHZ) Mac OS X (10.4.10)
iMac G5 (2.1GHZ) Mac OS X (10.4.10)

No phone number from Alaska can actually be ported to AT&T right now. They don't have a license agreement with any cell providers up here. So, until the merger - no 907 phone numbers will actually be ported to the iPhone.
I was told by the reps that I could register the phone at a Washington address AND get a Washington area code.
My iPhone sim card was registered with my 907 phone number.. so without a new simcard from AT&T (and it has to be their sim card) I'm out of luck.
Remember the porting process takes place in 2 stages. The phone number is imprinted to the sim through iTunes with an approval from AT&T and that activates your iPhone.
AT&T will then submit a porting request. This second process is totally detached from iTunes and Apple. Since its a 907 number is in Alaska they will be unable to do the second step.
Any AT&T rep has the ability to activate your iPhone through iTunes by registering your sim card with a phone number. This will take your iPhone out of brick mode. They can activate your phone without giving you an actual account.
This is what happened to me by accident. I don't think they will actually do this to be nice.
You can register your billing address in AK and choose a different place that you will primarily be using your iPhone (and thats where the phone's area code will be registered).
I'm not sure the AT&T edge network will work in Alaska though. But, if you use more than 50% roaming time in AK, they may shut you down. I doubt it, especially with the coming merger, but it's worth trying.

How can you create an activity as subsequent act. of more than one activity

Hi.
I want to create an activity as subsequent activity of more than one activity.
I am using FM CRMXIF_ORDER_SAVE, but if I write data structure CRMXIF_DOC_FLOW with more than one item the system shows the error CRM_COPY 010 More than one predecessor was entered for data transfer.
However I have customized multiple relationship allowed, and if I do multiples links in transaction crmd_order it works all right.
Only it doesn't work with FM CRMXIF_ORDER_SAVE. I need create activities with FM because they are interface R/3. What FM can I use to create multiple subsequent activities?
Thanks and best Regards
Sorry for my english.

Hi,
I have got some activities creates in the system. (e.g. Act. 1, Act. 2, Act. 3 and Act. 4). With the FM CRMXIF_ORDER_SAVE filled the structure CRMXIF_DOC_FLOW you can create subsequence activity of one of them (e.g. Act. X.1). I need create the same activity (Act X.1) from another activity, (e.g. Act. 2). I know to do this in transaction CRMD_ORDER by link tab. But I don't know how to do this using FM or BADI or another thing.
Act. 1 Act. 2 Act. 3 Act. 4
.....Act. X.1
Thanks in advance.

Hi Experts,
    I'm working on service process, my client requirement is to create a Service PO, SES and Invoice using BAPI's.
    While creating Service PO using BAPI_PO_CREATE1 with
    Item cat 'D' and Acc *** Cat 'P' and more than 1 activity number at the services level,
    service PO is getting created only for the 1st activity and not for the rest of the items.
Can you please help me in solving this issue.

Hi,
The profile you would need would look something like this:
Object Type: P
Object ID: <blank>
Maint flag: not checked (for display access)
Eval Path: <blank>
Status Vector: <blank> (though the system will probably set it to 12 anyway)
Function Module: <The name of your function module that returns the second pern of the current user as type HROBJECT. See standard module RH_GET_MANAGER_ASSIGNMENT for an example>
This profile can then be used to grant users access to their "second PERNR".
Kind regards,
Brent

I am trying to copy more or less 30G from my MacbookPro to an external hard drive and it is stuck in the "preparing to copy" step. But that for more than one hour. What should I do to make it faster? Thanks a lot in advance!

Thanks Shootist007, by blockd files I mean files that I have changed to blocked and when I tried to move then for the first time, I had to unblock again. I am trying to backup my pictures, my songs and other files like word documents and excel tables. First I put all of them as blocked, what caused the first problems on trying to move them. Then, I've unchecked the block option and if I try to move one by one, there is no problem. The issue is to move all together, because it gets stuck in the preparing to copy files step. Anyway, if I cannot do all by once, I'll do it one by one, event though that was not suposed to happen if we are talking about technology, right? Anyway, I thank you again for trying to help me!

Hi Lèonie, it is still recording only 8 minutes (more or less). I take off the 'metronomo', time is 'on', the section timing is on 'automatic'. What do you mean saying 'set the tempo to a very low value' ? Thank you again. Ipad Retina ...

Enrico,
in your previous post you said:
GarageBand (used with a Mic microphone) is stopping to record after only 7/8 minutes.
In which way I may record a complete concert or at least one hour of music ???
If you want to record at least one hour of music, you need to make the max. of 320 bars last for a long time - for example:
With a maximum of 320 bars, a song with160 bpm and a 4/4 measure will only last for 8 minutes; to make it last 32 minutes, reduce the tempo to 40 bpm.

My iPhone 4S shows I have over 6 GB of memory used for mail yet the mailboxes are more or less empty. Where is the memory going and how can I reduce it?

I found a post with this solution that worked for me - .Do a backup, then download ibackupbot. It lets you look into the contents of that backup. Look in system files>mediadomain>library>sms>attachments. I found a ton of huge files related to long deleted texts. ibackupbot let me delete all that old crap. I then restored the phone with that now modifec backup and Bingo! freed up 9 GB. No problems.
But note, if you are not technically inclined you probaly don't want to be digging around and deleting back up files. You delete the wrong thing and you could jack up your phone badly. Be careful.

okay i want to go to smart phone with 2 year contract. i am wavoring between the 2g to 4g plan. verizon has decided not to chat with me for the moment. because i'm annoying. my question is, can i alter the G factor as i go if i need more need less and leave everything else the same?

you can start out low and increase your data allowance as you need throughout the month, backdating it to the beginning of the billing cycle so you don't have overages; however, I found out the hard way that you cannot decrease your data allowance during the month and backdate it so you don't overpay for unused data.
what I do now is reset my data allowance to 2GB at the beginning of every bill cycle and then increase it if I get warnings that I'm going to go over... and I check it 3 days before my bill cycle ends to see if I think I might need to bump it up before the end of the bill cycle
it's annoying, but otherwise I end up paying thru the nose for overages or overpaying for data I don't use
BTW, I'm on the More Everything plan, which is the same plan you'll get unless you go Edge (where you pay the full price for the phone but don't get the 2-year commitment to it)

Mac bought friday,says the SSD memory is already finished, full, for more or less 100 GB of "other" but doesn't explain what it is... help please!

Empty the Trash if you haven't already done so. If you use iPhoto, empty its internal Trash first:
iPhoto ▹ Empty Trash
Then reboot. That will temporarily free up some space.
According to Apple documentation, you need at least 9 GB of available space on the startup volume (as shown in the Finder Info window) for normal operation. You also need enough space left over to allow for growth of your data. There is little or no performance advantage to having more available space than the minimum Apple recommends. Available storage space that you'll never use is wasted space.
If you're using Time Machine to back up a portable Mac, some of the free space will be used to make local snapshots, which are backup copies of files you've recently deleted. The space occupied by local snapshots is reported as available by the Finder, and should be considered as such. In the Storage display of System Information, local snapshots are shown as "Backups." The snapshots are automatically deleted when they expire or when free space falls below a certain level. You ordinarily don't need to, and should not, delete local snapshots yourself.
To locate large files, you can use Spotlight. That method may not find large folders that contain a lot of small files.
You can more effectively use a tool such as OmniDiskSweeper (ODS) to explore your volume and find out what's taking up the space. You can also delete files with it, but don't do that unless you're sure that you know what you're deleting and that all data is safely backed up. That means you have multiple backups, not just one.
Deleting files inside an iPhoto or Aperture library will corrupt the library. Any changes to a photo library must be made from within the application that created it. The same goes for Mail files.
Proceed further only if the problem isn't solved by the above steps.
ODS can't see the whole filesystem when you run it just by double-clicking; it only sees files that you have permission to read. To see everything, you have to run it as root.
Back up all data now.
Install ODS in the Applications folder as usual. Quit it if it's running.
Triple-click the line of text below on this page to select it, then copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):sudo /Applications/OmniDiskSweeper.app/Contents/MacOS/OmniDiskSweeper
Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Paste into the Terminal window (command-V). You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning not to screw up. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
The application window will open, eventually showing all files in all folders. It may take some minutes for ODS to list all the files.
I don't recommend that you make a habit of doing this. Don't delete anything while running ODS as root. If something needs to be deleted, make sure you know what it is and how it got there, and then delete it by other, safer, means. When in doubt, leave it alone or ask for guidance.
When you're done with ODS, quit it and also quit Terminal.

Find Duplicate Members in more than two Active Directory Groups

hi,
I am trying to find out duplicate members in more than two active directory groups. I am new to powershell and only found one script that gives me only duplicate members in two groups. If any one can help

I have this script that find duplicate members in two groups
$GroupAMembers = ""

$Members_A = ""
$Members_B = ""
$GroupAMembers = Get-ADGroupMember (groupname)
$GroupBMembers = Get-ADGroupMember (groupname)

Hi musicfan,<br />Sorry you are having problems with Firefox. Maybe you should have asked earlier and we could have fixed it.
Reading your comments I do not see that rolling back to an insecure Firefox 22 will actually help you much. You are probably best using IE, unless you have also damaged that.
*[[Export bookmarks to Internet Explorer]]
You should not use old versions they are insecure. Security fixes are publicised and exploitable.
* [[Install an older version of Firefox]]
* https://www.mozilla.org/security/known-vulnerabilities/firefox.html
Most others will not be having such problems. We are now able to say that with confidence because after developers missed a regression in Firefox 4 telemetry was introduced so that data was obtained. It may be an idea to turn on your telemetry, if you have not already done so, and decide to stick with Firefox.
*[[Send performance data to Mozilla to help improve Firefox]]
Trying safe mode takes seconds. Unfortunatly if you are not willing to do even rudimentary troubleshooting there is not anything we can do to help you.

My MacBook Pro was recently stolen, is it possible to more or less "shut down" that laptop if I have the serial number?

my macbook was recently stolen, is it possible to more or less "shut down" that computer if i have the serial number?

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
First, report this to the police. Then, you can't do anything with your serial number to track the MacBook.
Instead, if you turned on Find my Mac, you can track it if it's connected to Internet. You can track it with the Find my iPhone app from any iPhone, iPad or iPod touch, or from http://www.icloud.com at any Mac or PC.
If you didn't turn on Find my Mac, there's not anything else you can do apart from reporting that to the police

EIM 4.3.1 More than 1 activity per IPTA agent

Does anybody know is it possible to get more than 1 current activity per IPTA agent? Seems EIM "Mail user max load" setting makes no effect on IPTA agents. May be there are some ICM or ICM script settings to accomplish this?
PS. IPTA agents are also handling voice calls.

I have not upgraded this particular customer who has EIM to 4.3 yet, still on 4.2(5) with ES5 - but I have had no trouble at all with agents having a number of concurrent tasks - in the US, we have that set to 20. We only use integrated queues (IPTA Skill Groups).
There is no setting in ICM for this - it inherits it from EIM.
The setting we use is on the Queue in EIM - max concurrent tasks. Once you set it for a given agent on 1 queue it applies to all queues.
Try that setting. I don't know the one you refer to.

Geoff

More Pixels, Less Quality?

Following the recent discussions on here about camera quality, this makes interesting reading:
http://news.zdnet.com/2100-1040_22-6156398.html?tag=nl.e539

Just found this in the NY Times Circuits Newsletter. A quote from the author of Imatest software which is used for measuring sharpness and image quality by imaging-resource.com, DigitalCameraInfo.com, and CNET, as well as many print publications:
"Incidentally, where the megapixel myth really goes berserk is with cameraphones. Limited real estate forces the camera modules to be tiny, which means that the pixels get tiny--well under 2 microns--when the marketing people force the engineers to increase the pixel counts, because megapixels sell. Unfortunately, tiny pixels are noisy, work poorly in low light, and may not be utilized due to a physical phenomenon called lens diffraction. Engineers are well aware of the problems, and they keep butting heads with the marketing people. Guess who has the real power?"
And from a former Kodak manager: "Too many megapixels can actually impair a camera's performance. For example, the typical sensor in a consumer camera is 0.5-0.7 inches. The more millions of pixels, the smaller each pixel must be-and the smaller the pixel, the less light-gathering efficiency it has, and the worse the camera performs in low-light or stop-action shots."
And finally, from David Pogue (the NYT writer) says "The sensor size is far more important [than the pixel count]. After all, it's undisputed that a 6-megapixel Nikon D40 digital S.L.R. takes better pictures than a 10-megapixel shirt-pocket camera, because its sensor is relatively gigantic. Its individual pixel sensors can be larger and soak in more light, even if there are fewer of them."
So there you go.

BAM 11g - creating new report - More options not active

I am creating new reports in BAM 11g. 11.1.1.3.0 Build 8553
I can select the Data Object and Data Fields, but.... When I select any of the More options.... such as Create a filter or Create a calculated fied etc... I get the View Prompts screen and I cannot get out of it.
The Properties object works, but as soon as I go back to the Data Objects - I am on the View prompts screen with several unlabelled tabs... and I can only OK, Cancel or Save.
If I re-edit the reprt - I go straight to this View Prompts Screen... and can do nothing on the data objects.
Rebooting makes no difference....
Has anyone else seen this.
I am using JDK 1.6.0_14... which i picked up from a post in the forum.... but this has made no difference.
Thanks
Cliff

There must have been a typo or something when I reset the Java version.... re applying the copy of JDK 1.6.0_14 and restarting, Fixed the problem.
