MS Word on G5's - how long to load ?

I'm getting near to replacing my ibook and looking at either G5 Mac / Intel Mac
The main application I use is MS Word. On my 1Ghz ibook it takes 30 seconds to load Word after booting the computer.
I've noticed on colleagues Intel Laptops that Word loads in about 3 seconds.
How long does it take to load on the G5 Imac ? G5 Powermac ?

This is indeed safe, p=preferences here.
Move the Microsoft .plist files to the trash.
To do this, follow these steps:
a.      Quit any Office 2004 for Mac programs that are running.
b.      In the Finder, open the Hard disk:Users: user name :Library:Preferences folder.
c.      If you are experiencing an issue with Microsoft Word 2004 for Mac, drag the com.microsoft.Word.plist file to the Trash.
d.      Close the hard disk windows, and then start the Office 2004 for Mac program.
e.      If the issue no longer occurs, the issue is caused by a damaged .plist file.

Activated new phone. How long to load OTA software upgrade?

I activated a brand new phone this morning that I purchased on E-bay (Verizon, Boulder C-711, made by Casio). I followed the steps on the Verizonwireless web site and dialed *228. I was told that Phone was successfully activated. However, I was advised that the phone was going to receive a OTA software update. The phone immediately went into some type of download mode and the screen on the phone shows the VerizonWireless logo.
I have been waiting over an hour for the phone to do something. The screen still shows the VerizonWireless logo and all keys (including the "END") do not respond. This is to say that I tried to depress the "END" key to shut the phone off and it would not shut off. I did this thinking the phone may have locked-up and I was trying to turn it off in an attempt to re-boot it.
Question 1 - How long shoud it take for the OTA software upgrade to load into my phone (1 hour, 2 hours, more, less)?
Question 2 - If phone is in fact locked up, where do I go from here?
Any help would be sincerely appreciated.
Thanks, Bill.

Please disregard my question. My son, who is very impatient, came home and learned that I had been waiting over hour and a half for phone to do something. He called VerizonWireless support and got a very helpful service Rep. on the line. She told hime to remove the battery then re-install the battery and turn the phone back on. The phone re-booted and the necessary software downloaded (it only took one minute for the software to download). The phone then re-booted again and everything seems fine. I have been able to make and receive calls now.
Hope this helps anyone else with similar problem.
Thanks. Bill.

How long should Loading Installation Information take with a formatted Drive?

The OS was corrupted when installed over an incompatible 10.6 version of Centrify. It should have been uninstalled prior to installing Lion, so I was hoping to do a fresh install without restoring anything related to older applications to sort out network hang conditions. Restoring from Time Machine does not appear to offer selective restore in terms of Apps and Users.
I am now waiting for more than hour at a window over the prompt "To set up the installation of Mac OS X 10.7, click Continue" that says:
To download and restore Mac OS X, your computer's eligibility will be verified with Apple. This just has a throbber spinning in front of the message
Loading Installation Information... " I have about 16mbit/sec Internet connectivity, how long should this phase of the reinstall operation take?
When I first installed Lion, a bootable image of the initial version of Lion was made that was able to restore Lion to an erased drive in about 28 minutes. It seems that image has been disabled by changes the MacBook boot flash. Is there a way to be better prepared, and how long should this process take starting with an erased drive?

Sorry to hear that saga. This time download another Lion installer from MAS by going to purchases and holding the option key. When downloaded it will appear in /Applications. Save it off to several different places on your disk and off.
Also, consider keeping bootable clones with SuperDuper or CarbonCopy Cloner.
That way if you have a problem, just boot up from the clone and keep on working until you're ready to fix.

How long does load the Creative Zen V Plus 1GB MP3 Player with a USB (Compute

Hello,
This my question: Thanks,Rubenjb

That would depend on what you are loading. If you are loading a very large file, or a lot of music tracks it can take ahwile but I find that one song only takes about 5 seconds to load.

How long editing a Pages file?

Hi. I'm wondering if there is a way to see how long you've spent working on a document in Pages. I know with Word you can see how long you spent editing a document. Is there anything similar in Pages? Thanks.

No, such feature not available in Pages.

How long is the Battery your Macbook Pro 15 Inch (2011)

I might get a Macbook Pro 15 Inch 2011 with the 256GB SSD and the High Resolution Screen!
How much Battery Life would I get?
1) Going on the Internet
2) Running Skype
3) Playing Flight Simulator
4) Running Word
OR just list how long your battery is on your Macbook Pro!
Thanks!!!
(Will the higher resolution display affect my battery life)?

I was saying all of those combined on the newest MBP
if you're just worried about word, depending on the version, it might not even run on the computer.
And surprising as it may be, web browsing, depending on how you browse and what plug-ins you have installed, can be a very intensive task that takes up CPU and memory.
I found a very good discussion specifically about your issue but the site is riddled with ads so just google "MBP battery life 2011" without the quotes for further information. (it's very vast)
Long story short, bring your power brick with you if you take your computer out. There are also extra battery options that are said to help you charge your computer however, the magsafe power adapter is Apple propietary hardware that no one is able to make unless it's an Apple branded product so these batteries usually have a three prong plug (depending on where you're from) to pluginto with your power brick.

How long load-on-startup servlet stays in weblogic6.1 sp2

does anybody know how long a load-on-startup servlet exists (before
          gets destroyed) in weblogic6.1 sp2. What i want is in load-on-startup
          servlet, I want to schedule a java.util.Timer and when application
          gets undeployed, i want to cancel that timer. if load-on-startup
          servlet exists for the whole application life span then i could do
          timer.cancel() on the destroy method of load-on-startup servlet.
          any suggestion?
          thanks in adv,
          soumik


You can simply use ServletContextListener instead - that way you do not
          have to worry if (or when) WebLogic decides to destroy the servlet.

HOW LONG TIME YOU NEED TO MAKE GPS TO WORK WITH OV...

Question to NOKIA:
HOW LONG TIME YOU NEED TO MAKE GPS TO WORK WITH OVI MAP 3.1 in N97?
On all N97 I know and as you can read here in forum the GPS doesn't work usable in N97 and with MAP 3.1.
I believe that this is a software problem because often I get a GPS signal inhouse and in the wood, but from one second to the other N97 lost the GPS signal. And this in the best weather condition under free sky. Sometimes gps signal works for 15 minutes, then the signal will drop every minute or so.
The current position on map is shift (past) abaout 40-50 meters from the real position, so its unable to use.
The calculated speed is always changing between 0 and the current speed.
I have updated phone to de newes software and firmware also to ne newest maps also has hard reseted and reformatet and the problem ist still the same. If I switch off the option "Maps improvment" (which SENDS DATA TO NOKIA!!!) the the drop outs are fewer. But evreytime the position on maps is shift about 40-50 Meters from right position. Is there a mistake in calculation the position? Also the speed is jumping sometimes from 0 to x and back.
CAN NOKIA TELL US WHEN THIS BUG WILL BE FIXED, AND CAN NOKIA OFFER US A REFUND.
I have payed a lot for N97 and alot for the navigation licence and a lot for accesoires and a lot for the traffic security assistance. So I want a working phone! I dint have payed money for e alpha-stadium phone.
If this is realy the quality of nokia phone, then It is the latest phone I have buyed from nokia.
By the way, the phone has many many many many other bugs as described in this forum.
Really bad work NOKIA! :-(
I was so excited with my N95 and now this mess...
NOKIA please answer us forum members, what you plan to do with the N97 bugs. When we can hope that the bugs are gone? Otherwise I will return my phone and want my money back and I sue for compensation.

I have no word to disagree with you and hoping that Nokia soon will make some press statement or something else to tell us what they do with their flagship, sorry bugship Nokia N97.
Could be a shame recognize errors, but it's worst not to say nothing ant let the bad news of Nokia N97 spread for internet even if they want to sell a Nokia N97 Mini in the near future.
I understand and supose that we will no have no new version till september because we are in the last week and july and the activity in august decrease really high... but at least someone of Nokia could tell something about this problems and if it's possible all the other problems.
Why Nokia Beta Labs Forum there is a direct contact with Nokia workers, and in discussions is relly rare to find?
Yesterday is history.
Tomorrow is a mistery.
Today is a gift.

HT5429 How long after you report a problem does it take for the fix to be picked up in maps?

How long after you report a problem does it take for the fix to be picked up in maps? The street I live on is misspelled. It's shown as one word, but it should be two words. Maps cannot find the address when it is spelled correctly, so I have it purposely misspelled it as one word in my contacts, which helps for the most part, however it still tries to place my home on an entirely different street all together. Fortunately this new random street is at least close to where I live. When I used to spell my street correctly with two words, maps would try to send me to the next town over. So it kind of works, as long as I misspell my street, and ignore the fact that it is showing where I live to be a couple of streets down from where I actually live. I live in Connecticut - not in the most populated of areas, but not in the middle of nowhere either. Amazingly enough Google Maps will correctly find my address whether it's spelled with one words or two words. Google Maps also shows my apartment complex, which Apple Maps does not. I really wish Apple would just do a quick pass of the area to fix these issues. I’ve reported the problem several times, months ago. How long will it take for there to be a fix? I keep trying to use the Apple ecosystem, but Google is clearly the better solution for me.

Apple does not do the GIS data for maps. That comes from 3rd party vendors like Tom Tom. I have read it takes some time to update map data. The only thing you can do is report it.
Not to belittle your complaint, but on my end it is Apple that is clearly better. When looking at my house in Google, the satellite photo is more than 4 years old, and the Apple one is much newer. I can tell because of the condition of my home and the neighbor's. They had an above ground pool which was removed 4 years ago and it shows on the Google Map. I had remodeling and roof work done to my home that started 3 years ago and Apple's satellite view showed this work done, which took over a year to complete. I live in the middle of a block in a rural town. Both Apple and Google split the block into 100 parts and put my home close to the beginning of the block instead of where it actually sits. I've reported it to both Google and Apple and no one has changed. Just one of those things. But, keep your chin up, it will get corrected eventually.

How long does it take for iCloud to sync to my devices?

I just discovered that I could drag Word documents onto the iCloud web site from my computer. Pretty handy trick. Drag and drop should be how this works. So to test it I dragged a document from my My Documents Folder onto the iCloud web site in my browser (I wish my company would update to Windows 7 so it would be easier to align windows on screen). It appeared to upload just fine. So I went to my iPhone and opened Pages to see how badly the file translated from Word 2007 to Pages for iPhone. And no document.
I have waited about 20 minutes so far. Am I being to impatient? Just how long does it take for iCloud to promulgate my documents to my iDevices? I am hopefully getting an iPad for Xmas so I need to get this worked out before I actually need this for work.

It actually goes pretty fast once you are on a WiFi connection. I found an open WiFi connection at Starbucks and when i got back to my desk the files were all there on the web site. I fond the Use Cellular connection to sync in settings and decided that I didn't need to sync my docs all the time so I will just wait to connect when I can get to a WiFi.
Now I just need to figure out how to sync my contacts. iCloud doesn't seem to play nice with Google contacts when they are on an Exchange connection.

How long is it to implement JSSE on a client-server architecture?

Hi all of you,
Since I'm not a developper but more a system admin, I'm wondering how long approximatly it would take to adapt an existing JAVA client-server architecture to use JSSE or SSL communication over the internet. Is it a simple task or are we talking about weeks of work? Where would be installed the SSL certificate, on the web server or the database server? In brief, what are the main steps that a developper has to go through?
Architecture:
JAVA client
Web server (RMI server), Microsoft IIS5.0
Database server (MySQL4.0)
Thanks you all for your precious time,
AD

If your webserver has a server certificate from one of the "Big Boys" in the CA business, and if you don't need client-authentication (and almost no-one does) - in your client, write "SSL" in front of everywhere the app currently has the word "Socket", and scratch out "HttpUrl" and replace it with HttpsUrl,." and change your access-urls to start with "https:" and change your socket-connections to talk to your server's SSL port, and you're done. I've taken a Socket-based app and made it SSL/Plain bilingual in two hours once (admittedly, it was a small and well-designed app).
If your server-cert isn't signed by a known CA, then you have to play some games to get the client side to accept it - but they've all been discussed to death in this forum.

How long charactors can stored in 'STRING' type?

HI
I'm just curious how long charactors can stored in 'string' type.
and if there is limit number to store what kind of type is unlimited length type?
and is it possible send a parameter page to page with 'form' 'post' way unlimited length of string?
and is there any type of DB field which is save last number of records automatically when one record is inserted like MANDT?
MANDT is client number though.
Regards.

Here is what ABAP key word documentation says about string
The elementary data type STRING is similar to data type C and refers to a variable-length string. Accordingly, the elementary data type XSTRING is similar to data type X and refers to a variable-length byte sequence.
In contrast to a C or X field, the length of a string is not static but variable and adjusts itself to the current field content at runtime. Dynamic memory management is used internally. Strings can have any length.
The initial value of a string is an empty string with length 0. A structure containing a string is seen as deep. A deep structure cannot be used like a C field. Strings can be displayed in the ABAP Debugger and used in the ABAP Dictionary.
It is not yet possible to use strings in screens or database tables. However, strings can be stored in database tables as clusters using EXPORT and transferred using IMPORT.
As far as I know the limit is 4 Giga Byte which equals more or less no limit. I donnot expect that you will meet this limit in practice. Its very likely that will run out of memory before you reach this limit.
In short there is no limit to the data stored in STRING var but the system memory has a limit....
This can be proved with the below program:
For the program system dumps with mess.
"Unable to fulfil request for 127683972 bytes of memory space. "
here's the test prog.:
TABLES ekko.
DATA testmax TYPE string.
DATA z(16) TYPE i.
SELECT * FROM ekko.
CONCATENATE testmax ekko INTO testmax.
z = strlen( testmax ).
IF z = 63841496.
BREAK-POINT.
ENDIF.
ENDSELECT.
