Multiple problems on multiple new 8330's

In september I bought an 8330 curve. It worked great, and other than a few small things (not comfirming bbm contacts) it worked awesome, solid, never unstable. The screen started to have bubbles on the inside of it, so I took it in on warranty, and was given a new one AFTER I was sent home to make a backup.
I get the new phone, came directly home and reloaded the backup. The next day, it started randomly rebooting. Even if it was just sitting there.
Sunday it shut off and when it tried to restart it just went to JVM error 102. If you reset it or did a hard reset it would always go to JVM error 102 when it tried to boot. I was out of town, and use my phone for work, so I was tickled pink, since its supposedly brand new.
Monday night they give me a new one AGAIN because nobody at the store can seem to fix it or figure it out. I go home, reload my data, wich is now a week old, and within a few hours it randomly starts rebooting agian. Then it wouldnt start, just flash the red LED, wich it did regardless of how many times I tried a hard restart. Eventualy this morning after 8 hours of flashing the red LED, I did a hard restart and it work.
I don't download apps. I use the phone, text, email, and I email pictures to my boss. Its the main reason i have a BB, so I dont get killed on MMS message charges, I just have unlimited email and I send the pics on email.
The odd time I browse. And I don't do any of the things ppl talk about on crackberry where they are farting around doing things they arent supposed to and thier phone crashes.
Any idea why my "new" curves keep doing this? 3rd one in 5 months, and 2 of them in the last week.
Apps? The ones that come on the phone from the factory. I live in terror that any thing else will brick my curve. I even talk nice to it.

Simpler than a three-step process (well, four if you include the inital backup)?
Nah, I've upgraded many many OSs on devices before, this I've instructed is the safest and simplest way.
I would not recommend the wireless upgrade, I've seen way too many problems and botched devices as a result.
Good advice give in the previous post, take it or leave it.

Multiple Problems Involving my new laptop [Keyboard][wireless mouse][application issues]

My laptop only gives me the following information on the stickers:
Lenovo G580
Model NO: 20157
I received a laptop from my dad and the more I use it the more stuff i seem to run into.
The first problem i noticed was that two of my arrow keys would not work on my keyboard and I need those keys to play a couple of low-end games that i like.
Next i noticed that my wireless mouse would act weird when I attempted to use it. It would constantly double-click when i only clicked once and i have replaced the batteries multiple times. It only happens on this computer.
Another problem is that i have the desktop version of skype installed. Sometimes it crashes and refuses to close. I've tried task manager and the command line. When I use "taskkill /F /IM skype.exe" it tells me i do not have permission even when i launched command line as administrator.
After using Windows 8 for a few months,i really hate it. I absolutely cannot stand the new operating system. I gave it a try and if i have to live with it for much longer I will go insane.
I have tried to install Ubuntu but the disk refuses to load. Im sure it has something to do with secure boot, but the option to disable it is greyed out and im unable to change it.
Anyone who can help me with any of these issues would be awesome.

[SOLVED]Multiple Problems after a new install on Arch Linux

Hello all,
I just finished installing Arch Linux from the core ISO which I downloaded from the site. The install went smoothly and booted up fine. Also I was able to install gnome and its extras fine as well. On the first boot after installing gnome I managed to get my resolution correct also. However later on after I installed compiz fusion everything with the resolution seems to be going wrong . My computer specs are shown below :
AMD 64 3200
Asus M2N MX-SE
2 GB Ram
Geforce 8600 GT
Viewsonic VA1918wm (Native resolution is 1440x900)
At the moment I can only manage to get upto 1024x768 and it looks quite bad at that resolution. I have attached the xorg.conf I have at the moment.

While I was trying to fix this I noticed I was encountering other problems also. For one I found that sometimes dhcpcd times out on booting up and I cant seemt o connect to the Internet on booting. Although I just thought of trying a static IP and I'll post if that helped later on.
Another problem is I found that I seem to get the following error randomly. Pressing ctrl + D after this just restarts the machine.
The superblock could not be read or does not describe a correct ext2
filesystem. If the device is valid and it really contains an ext2
filesystem (and not swap or ufs or something else), then the superblock
is corrupt, and you might try running e2fsck with an alternate superblock:
e2fsck -b 8193 <device>
Finally, while I boot up I noticed that it says "Mounting root partition as read only [DONE]" Is the root partition supposed ot be mounted as read only ? Attached my fstab just in case it is needed.
# /etc/fstab: static file system information
# <file system> <dir> <type> <options> <dump> <pass>

As you can see I'm quite new to Arch Linux so any help would be deeply appreciated.

Thank you for all your suggestions . I tried replacing the ID to Card0 but it didnt seem to fix it . However on the bright side I checked more threads on the forum and found some that helped out . :)

I copied the xorg.conf file from the third link and just made minor changes to it like removing all the resolutions I didn't need and now its working fine :).
Now Im just stuck with two problems. One is the following message which appears randomly.
The superblock could not be read or does not describe a correct ext2
filesystem. If the device is valid and it really contains an ext2
filesystem (and not swap or ufs or something else), then the superblock
is corrupt, and you might try running e2fsck with an alternate superblock:

A thread about the same can be found http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=295384 but there isn't a solution on it.
The second is the intermittent problems with the Network being setup. Sometimes when I boot up it just says dhcpcd timedout and I won't be able to connect . However I can connect on another machine at the same time.
Took a look at the drive in question with gparted and it shows the below information:
/dev/sdb1 ext3 / 32.59 GB 4.92 GB 27.68 GB boot
By any chance is any of the above information relevant :x ?

Multiple problems accross multiple programs

I'm running CS6 on Mac OSX 10.6.8.
I'm editing about a dozen short videos in Premiere with source footage in a variety of formats, although mostly in XDCam EX.
I created some simple opening and closing graphics in After Effects, and there are some lower third IDs as well. The lower thirds were originally created by someone else, I copied their project and saved Comps for each of the IDs I needed. I brought opening and closing graphics, and the lower thirds into my PPro project via Dynamic Link.
Everything was going fine, and then... ?
I shut down my workstation last night, and then remembered I had to export one of the lower thirds for someone else, so I rebooted. At that point, the After Effect project would not load. It would load to about 25%, and then freeze.
Eventually, I was able to launch an older version of the AE project, but was never able to launch the original again.
Then I started having problems with Premiere. Media that had previously been brought into the project was not loading, including, not surprisingly, the AE comps I'd brought in via dynamic link.
After repairing permissions and trashing preferences (more than once), and of course, so many re-boots I lost count, eventually things seemed like they were working correctly.
Until I wanted to export.
Trying to send a sequence from PPRo to Media Encoder woule launch Media Encoder, but the sequence would never show up in ME, and PPro would just show the horizontal loading bar, seemingly non-stop. When I hit the escape key, the loading bar would disappear, and then PPro would freeze. Spinning beachball of death.
I tried opening the PPro sequence from Media Encoder, but ME wasn't connecting to the Dynamic Link server.
So of course, I tried exporting directly from PPro. Seemed like it was working, until the very end of the export, when I got this message:
And so... no export.
I'm now on my way to a friend's place to try to use her system. I'm a recent adopter/convert from the FCP7 world, and up to this point I've been very impressed with Creative Suite, but this is really disheartening. Bad enough I'm working on a Saturday, but at this point I've accomplished nothing all day.
Any advice would be appreciated, thanks.

Flush the disk, media and project caches and let them rebuild.

Multiple problems with new x476DW

Hi, My company recently purchased this printer to replace an Epson Workforce Pro. It is our only printer and we have around 50 staff on Win8 laptops. We have had daily issues ever since installation including: - Printer shows as offline for some (but not all) users when it is online- Users unable to connect to it when installing software- Often (but not always) and extremely long wait for documents to start printing (up to several minutes)- Documents sitting in print queue indefinitely- Error messages displayed to user saying documents could not be printed even though print has completed successfully- Takes minutes to spool print jobs of PDFs containing scanned images of a MB or two. Larger scans will not print at all (I suspect because the software times out before the print job has finished)- Touch panel on printer freezes during use. After this has happened the on-off button also hangs so printer has to be rebooted by switching off at wall socket All in all not a good experience. We returned the first one in the hope that it must have been a one-off faulty item and that a new product surely wouldn't be launched with so many problems. However our new one is exactly the same. When it works, it's great. The software is much nicer to use than the Epson, it is super-fast once it actually starts printing and the print quality is excellent. I'd really like to keep it but I need to find out if HP is aware of these problems and if there is likely to be a firmware update to address them. The Epson was pretty flawless until the day when lots of the print nozzles suddenly blocked when it was 16 months old (still no idea why) and we discovered that the print head is unserviceable. Just for the record, I have tried repeatedly to call HP support but was unable to penetrate the voice recognition line of defence which apparently couldn't recognise the word 'printer'. Hrrmph!

Good morning I had these exact problems on multiple x476 units.
It was resolved once HP finally released a new firmware update. Go the Support site and download the latest firmware for your product and all your problems will go away. Jeff

Multiple problems with new retina iMac. Suspect graphics driver

New retina IMac, top spec, with latest Yosemite, and additional Cinema Display attached. Having multiple problems which I suspect are being caused by the graphics driver:
The long running issue with Adobe PS whereby under certain size options the tools cursor disappears and just has the arrow cursor.
With no warning, after doing an action such as opening an application the system reverts immediately to the login screen and does not show me as logged in.
After switching users, a blank screen other than the cursor is shown. Seems I have to power off to get past this one.
Can anybody shed any light on any of these, at least so that I can discount my theory of a single culprit?

So I went onto the Adobe forums and found a number of threads on this subject. A staff member replied with the following:
It's a video card driver bug introduced in MacOS 10.10 (which looks a lot like an old bug they fixed in 10.9).
Apple is aware of this, and the other video driver issues in 10.10, and working on solutions.
So thanks to Adobe we now know.

Having multiple problems with script - NTFS Permissions and AD Groups

Hi, all! I'm having multiple problems with my first script I've written with Powershell. The script below does the following:
1. Prompts the user for a corporate division under which a shared folder will be created, and adjusts variables accordingly.
2. Prompts if the folder will be a global folder or an office/location-specific folder, and makes appropriate adjustments to variables.
3. If a global folder, prompts for the name. If an office/location-specific folder, prompts for each component of the street address, city and state and an optional modifier. I've prompted for this information in this way because the information
is used differently later on in the script.
4. Verifies the entered information and requests confirmation to proceed.
5. Creates the folder.
6. Creates an AD OU and/or security group(s).
7. Applies appropriate security groups to the new folder and removes undesired permissions.

Set-ACL ($FSRoot + $FolderPath + $FolderName) $FolderACL
My problems right now are in the assignment/removal of security groups on the newly-created folder, and the problems are two-fold. Yes, I am running this script as an Administrator.
First, I am unable to remove the BUILTIN\Users group from the folder when this is an office/location-specific folder. I've tried to remove the group in several different ways, and none are having any effect. Oddly, if I type in the lines directly
into Powershell, they work as expected. I've tried the following methods:
$FolderACL = get-acl ($FSRoot + $FolderPath + $FolderName)
$FolderACL.SetAccessRuleProtection($True,$True)
$FolderACL.Access | where {$_.IdentityReference -eq "BUILTIN\Users"} | %{$FolderACL.RemoveAccessRuleAll($_)}
Set-ACL ($FSRoot + $FolderPath + $FolderName) $FolderACL
$FolderACL = get-acl ($FSRoot + $FolderPath + $FolderName)
$FolderACL.SetAccessRuleProtection($True,$True)
$BIUsers = New-Object System.Security.Principal.NTAccount("BUILTIN\Users")
$BIUsersSID = $BIUsers.Translate([System.Security.Principal.SecurityIdentifier])
$Ar = New-Object System.Security.AccessControl.FileSystemAccessRule($BIUsersSID.Value,"ReadAndExecute,AppendData,CreateFiles,Synchronize","ContainerInherit, ObjectInherit", "None", "Allow")
$FolderACL.RemoveAccessRuleAll($Ar)
Set-ACL ($FSRoot + $FolderPath + $FolderName) $FolderACL
In the first case, the script goes through and has no apparent effect because afterwards, I do a get-acl and the BUILTIN\Users group is still there, although when looking through the GUI, inheritance appears to have been broken from the parent folder.
In the second case, I get the following error message:
Exception calling "RemoveAccessRuleAll" with "1" argument(s): "Some or all identity references could not be translated."
At C:\Users\tesdallb\Documents\FileServerBuild.ps1:110 char:5
+ $FolderACL.RemoveAccessRuleAll($Ar)
+ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+ CategoryInfo : NotSpecified: (:) [], MethodInvocationException
+ FullyQualifiedErrorId : IdentityNotMappedException
This seems strange that the local server is unable to translate the SID of a BUILTIN account. I've also tried explicitly putting in the BUILTIN\Users SID in place of the variable in the New-Object line, but that gives me the same error. I've
also tried the solutions given in this thread:
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/windowsserver/en-US/ad59dc58-1360-4652-ae09-2cd4273cbd4f/remove-acl-issue?forum=winserverpowershell and at this URL:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff730951.aspx but these solutions also failed to have any effect.
My second problem is when I try to apply the newly-created security groups, I also will get the "Some or all identity references could not be translated." I thought I had found a workaround to the problem by adding the -PassThru option to
the New-ADGroup commands, because it would output the SID of the group after creation, however a few lines later, the server is unable to translate the account to apply the security groups to the folder.
My first Powershell script has been working well up to this point and now I seem to have hit a showstopper. Any help is appreciated.
Thanks!

I was hoping to stay with strictly Powershell, but unless I can find a Powershell solution, I may resort to ICACLS.
As for the problems with my groups not being translatable right after creating them, I think I have solved this problem by using the -Server parameter on all my New-ADGroup commands and this example code seems to have gotten around the translation problem,
again utilizing the -Server parameter on the Get-ADGroup command:
get-acl ($FSRoot + $FolderPath + $FolderName) | fl
$FolderACL = get-acl ($FSRoot + $FolderPath + $FolderName)
# Add the new normal users group to the folder with Read and Execute permissions
$GroupSID = Get-ADGroup -Identity $GroupName -Server chadc01.jacobsonco.com | Select-Object -ExpandProperty SID
$SIDIdentity = New-Object System.Security.Principal.SecurityIdentifier($GroupSID)
$Ar = New-Object System.Security.AccessControl.FileSystemAccessRule($SIDIdentity,"ReadAndExecute","ContainerInherit, ObjectInherit", "None", "Allow")
$FolderACL.AddAccessRule($Ar)
# Add the management users group to the folder with Modify permissions
$GroupMGMTSID = Get-ADGroup -Identity $GroupNameMGMT -Server chadc01.jacobsonco.com | Select-Object -ExpandProperty SID
$SIDIdentity = New-Object System.Security.Principal.SecurityIdentifier($GroupMGMTSID)
$Ar = New-Object System.Security.AccessControl.FileSystemAccessRule($SIDIdentity, "Modify", "ContainerInherit, ObjectInherit", "None", "Allow")
$FolderACL.AddAccessRule($Ar)
Set-ACL ($FSRoot + $FolderPath + $FolderName) $FolderACL
Going this route seems to ensure that the Domain Controller I'm creating my groups on is the same one that I'm querying for the group's SID to use in the FileSystemAccessRule. It's been working fairly consistently.
Still having issues with the translation of the BUILTIN\Users group, though.

Multiple problems with Mail

Here is the setup:
iMac Intel running 10.4.8
Mail 2.1.1
seperate user accounts, each with their own email address
email is valornet.com (local ISP), set up to download to Mail
Multiple problems with one of the user accounts (not affecting the others):
1. Multiple copies in the inbox of the same message. These are brand new, not a week old as some other threads have mentioned. When I go to Preferences/Accounts/Advanced I have already clicked the "Remove Now" button, also the "Remove copy from server..." is checked.
2. Mail will not stop retrieving new mail. The circle thing next to the Inbox on the left just keeps spinning, and spinning, and spinning...
3. Cannot quit Mail. Have to go in Activity Monitor and Force Quit.
4. My trash folder is gone.
If anyone can help me clean up this mess, I would appreciate it.

permissions), as described here:

Multiple problems with syncing deleting media off iPhone

The syncing process on the iPhone is very frustrating.
As all know, with the iPod, if I wanted to put a song I had in iTunes onto my iPod, all I had to do was connect my iPod, click on the song in iTunes, and drag it on to my iPod. Easy. No more. With iPhone, I have to sync in order to move anything.
What's worse, if I delete anything out of my iTunes for any reason, I ultimately have to delete it off of the iPhone as well. Here’s why: as mentioned above, in order to add a song, I have to sync. Let’s say I have my iPhone set up to sync certain playlists only, e.g., “red,” “green,” and “blue.” If I sync my iPhone and let’s say, song “A” is currently on my iPhone in the red playlist, but has been deleted out of iTunes, my iPhone will delete it. If I try to avoid this problem – i.e., I want to keep red the way it is, so I only want to sync green and blue, and thus uncheck red in the “sync selected playlists” section, my red playlist is deleted off of my iPhone altogether. Why?
This is a problem for multiple reasons. For one, my computer is running out of space. Media takes up a lot of space. I would like to be able to delete things off of my computer without having to lose them in order to sync my iPhone (for anything - iTunes, Outlook, etc). Similarly, I can’t import any songs into iPhone without buying them in iTunes on my computer and then syncing, so if I want to both add new songs and retain the songs I already have on my iPhone, I must keep them on my computer.
I've already suffered the consequences. I deleted 40 hours of lectures (which I have on CD) off of my computer once I put them onto my iPhone, and now the iPhone has just wiped them all out as well. Terrific. I’m not about to reimport all those lectures now. It would take hours, and I’ve already done it once. I am very angry that a $600 piece of equipment has a problem that did not exist on my three-year-old iPod.
And other similar syncing issues abound. If I try to tell the iPhone not to sync video with my computer, it DELETES the video off of my phone. Similarly, with photos – if I don’t want it to sync anymore, because I want to keep my photos the way they are on the iPhone, I can't just tell it not to sync photos. If I do that, it deletes them. This makes no sense to me.
If these syncing problems weren't enough, iTunes no longer lets me play songs from my iPhone on my computer. This was never true with my iPod, and I fail to understand how this enhances security issues, since I was already unable to move media from my iPod back onto my computer.
At the moment (it is 4 AM), I am now sitting at my computer re-syncing everything that I hadn't already deleted off my computer. It is incredibly, unbelievably, mind-numbingly frustrating, and I am NOT a person who gets frustrated by technology. Someone please help - I hope that I'm either missing an easy fix or that Apple is going to update the software immediately.

Tap Settings App>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings.
Take to place (Apple Center) that fixed it before and ask them to show you the steps to keep your iPhone working.

Multiple problems with PSE10 Organizer

I have Photoshop Elements 10 that I am using with Windows XP with Service Pack 3, a Pentium 4 CPU with 3 GHz, 2 GB of RAM and 48.6 GB of free disk space. I have had multiple problems with Organizer since I started using it.
When I first got PSE10, I imported 8 years of my photos into one catalog in Organizer. I'm not sure how many images were included in this catalog but from what I've read, there's no limit to the number of images that can be placed in a catalog.
Question: Is there any limit to the number of images that can be put into one catalog?
Catalog A
Problem 1) People recognition didn't work. When I tried to find people for tagging, the feature didn't work. After researching the problem online, I found that others who had the same problem solved it by rebuilding the catalog a few hundred images at a time. I deleted the original catalog with all of my images and created a new catalog with just 800 images from this year. Then, people recognition worked, and I was able to tag people. The only other feature that I have used in Catalog A is that I have edited a few images to improve exposure. I have not rated images, stacked them, renamed them or created albums. With this catalog, the Organizer and the Editor still work together so when I select a photo in Organizer to fix, the Editor opens up with the photo for editing like it is supposed to do.
Catalog B
I created another catalog that had about 900 different images from a European tour. I deleted some of those images so there are now 760 images in this catalog. At first, all the Organizer features seemed to work fine in this catalog. I was able to pull photos from Organizer to fix in the Editor. I rated all the images, stacked and renamed some photos and created several albums under an album category.
Problem 2) A couple of days ago, the Organizer and the Editor stopped working together. Now, when I select a photo in Organizer and click on Fix, Edit, the Editor window comes up but the photo does not appear in Editor. The only way I can get an image into Editor is to pull it directly into Editor. Then, when I want to save it as a Version Set I have to choose File> Organize Open File in order to save the image as a version set.
Question: How do I get the Organizer & Editor to work together again?
Problem 3) The Exif data has disappeared on quite a few of the images in Catalog B even though the Complete radio button is highlighted under the Properties panel. Some of those images were never edited or re-saved.
Question: How do I get the Exif data back into Properties.
Problem 4) Yellow question marks continue to appear on the top left of some images even though these images have not been moved. The Organizer searches for the "missing file" and finds it quickly but why is it "missing"? I have gone through the albums in this catalog, completed the missing file searches on all the images so that no yellow question marks appear and when I go back to the catalog the next time I find the yellow question marks are there again!
Question: Why does Organizer think the files are missing? Why isn't the file location remaining the same?
Problem 5) When I re-opened Catalog A with the general 2012 images, I got a message that my watched folder had new photos to import. When I clicked on ok, the next window brought up 3 photos that were already in Catalog B of my European tour that were taken in September. Somehow, the Date Created and the Dated modified had been changed from 9/12 to 11/12 so the Organizer thought they were new images when they were not.
Questions: Shouldn't the Date Created remain constant? The Date Created does not seem to represent the date the picture was taken, so what does that date represent? How can I keep the date created from being changed?
Both Catalogs
All of the images in both catalogs show creation dates that are later than the date modified, (example: date created of 6/12 and a date modified of 3/12).
Question: How is it possible that the date created is later than the date modified?

Hey Paysonite,
A lot of questions hmm!!! Let me try to answer few of them.
Question: Is there any limit to the number of images that can be put into one catalog?
Ans: No, you can import as many images in catalog you want. Just to add, as the size of catalog grows, Organizer's perfromance will be affected.
Question: Why does Organizer think the files are missing? Why isn't the file location remaining the same?
Ans: As you mentioned in your comments, you have deleted some files (i assume from explorer). But these deleted files are still present in Organizer. Since the deletion happened outside the organizer, so Organizer is unaware of the deletion. So when organizer tries to read the files (which were deleted), Organizer is unable to find then and thus thinks that files are missing.
Questions: Shouldn't the Date Created remain constant? The Date Created does not seem to represent the date the picture was taken, so what does that date represent? How can I keep the date created from being changed?
Ans: Date created represents the date on which the files was created on your files system (or into OS). It is not date when the images was shot (actual shot date is Date time Original in Organizer).
Question: How is it possible that the date created is later than the date modified?
Ans: A simple way to do it is-Suppose you have an image which was brought/copied on July (i am explaining this with the help of month only. Assume date to be 1st and year to 2012). Now change the system date to August. Edit this image in Editor (without creating a version set for easy illustration). Now date created is July and date modified is Aug.
Copy this fine on flash drive/pen drive. Delete the original file from windows. Change the system date to Sept. Now copy the file in windows and see its properties. It has Date created as Sept and date modified as Aug, which answers you question.
I am unable to fully understand your remaining questions. Please elaborate.
Also please let me know if you need more info with above answers.

Multiple Problems with Toshiba Satellite A505-S6980 laptop??

Hi,
We purchased the Toshiba Satellite A505-S6980 laptop at Best Buy about a week ago. However, we seem to be having multiple problems with it, that I wouldn't have expected from a brand new Toshiba.
Problems:
Whenever I'm in Mozilla Firefox browser, it crashes 90% of the time. Firefox was always my favorite on our previous computer, and still is, I just can't use it because it continually crashes.
In Outlook, whenever I try to open a message or reply, or basically any general command, it pops up an error message that says, "Could not install the custom actions," and then does whatever I'd wanted it too. It's a pain, as we do a lot of email and calendar through Outlook.
In Outlook, when I tried to import our Contacts, it says that we do not have the appropriate permissions to access the files. We are the only user account on this computer. We don't do seperate ones for each family member; we just turn on the PC.
It seems to me like the internet crawls on this computer. Every time we try to play a video (e.g. ABC, CNN, Youtube), it won't buffer. It just stops and starts all throughout the video about every 3 seconds. HUGE nuisance. We watch a lot of videos.
Minor issue: In Firefox, before it has crashed that is, on my old computer I used to be able to type "cnet" without the quotes into the address bar, and it would take me to www.cnet.com. If it couldn't find the page, it would take me to my default search engine's page (Yahoo) with the search results. On this one, if I type anything into the address bar (like search terms/keywords) it bring up search results with a My Start Incredimail search engine. I want my Yahoo search engine, and I want it to find the page if it can.
I cannot seem to get the Aero Flick (I think) to work. That was one of the main things I was looking forward to, but I can't figure out how to do it.
It seems to me like the Windows Explorer freezes a lot.
There have been multiple times when I'm typing that the keys don't work. Like I would have to press the A key about 10 times to get it to show up on the screen once. It's hit and miss and doesn't do it all of the time.
This isn't a problem - just a question. Is it best to leave the computer plugged in all of the time if it's stationary? Or once it's fully charged, should I unplug it and let the power run down, and then re-charge it?
**CLARIFICATION: It's not Outlook Express, it's Microsoft Office Outlook 2007. The one that you have to pay for. Surely it works with 7, considering it's Microsoft?!?!
If you can help me answer any of these problems/questions, I would really appreciate it.
Have a safe and Merry Christmas!

Yes, everything was fine with Firefox. However, I have uninstalled it, and am just using Internet Explorer for now.
Thanks for battery info...
I'm well within the return window, but overall really like the laptop. I've put a lot of time into it, and just want it to work right if possible.
Thanks for the info.

Also, that search engine you mentioned may have somehow been installed on your machine. Have you checked the "Manage search engines..." window available from the search bar? Check your add-ons as well. You could always reinstall Firefox from scratch.
As for the battery, it may not be best to continually run down the battery - followed by a long charge. Once a month or so should be fine. Otherwise, just try to give the battery some exercise every now and then.
Are you still within the return window? Your unit may have a bad install, some bad RAM, or...
I have the same model and it works just fine.

Multiple Problems with PDF InDesign, Bridge, and Acrobat Reader

I create proof books with a blend of Adobe Bridge & InDesign.
Here is my work flow: I will BOLD the errors I am having and need help with.
Step 1.) I create contact sheets in Bridge and save them as PDF's
Problem with Bridge ( I have another posting for this thread as well under Bridge) I cannot save PDF's larger than 400ish photos at 300ppi (important for my printer) without it saving as a blank PDF. COMPLETELY EMTPY! So I have to split up my photos into groups of 400 or less photos then patch them back together.
Problem with Acrobat: If I patch those PDF’s back together with Adobe Acrobat (a suggestion from another person on here) they save great but I get an error when I try to import them in indesign. The error reading: ERROR. Cannot determine page count.
Please open the PDF file in Acrobat, do a “Save As…” and try again. (99)
Step 2.) I use a script (MultiPageImporter2.2.1.jsx) to import the PDF's into Indesign. (if saved as one pdf in acrobat I get the above error)
Problem With InDesign: I run this importer script in InDesign to create my books with a template I use from my printers. Well since I have to import multiple pdf with multiple pages ( because I can’t piece them together without the above error. Then I have this problem:
I place a pdf with 1-226 pages in. I start this on page 1.
I place the next pdf with 1-141 pages in. I start this on page 227.
An error pops up that says I MUST start my import on page 226!!!!!!!!!! I don’t want to import on page 226 because I have two photos on that page!
I tried it several ways and no matter what I loose my last page of my first import.
PLEASE someone help me! I feel like I might be doing something really silly but I’ve spent 7.5 hours today working on this books with error after error.
I have done all the updates on my computers and nothing works. I use two macs and both have the same errors. I have a mac-book Pro | snow leopard and a Imac | snow leopard.
Thanks much!

All your problems seem to stem from the PDFs that you are making from Bridge. What you are describing should be perfectly possible, but the fact that Bridge doesn't want to make a PDF with more than 400 photos and it all goes downhill from there makes me suspect Bridge.
Here's a plugin that may help? Looks pretty cheap for what it does.
Apart from that I'd try to clean up the PDFs that Bridge is producing if Indesign doesn't like them. One way would be to print to a new PDF, after you've combined them as necessary.
As to the last pronlem you mention, where it forces you to place on page 226, have you tried creating a blank page 227 first, before you try placing?

How to search with multiple constraints in the new java API?

I'm having a problem using the new MDM API to do searches with multiple constraints. Here are the classes I'm trying to use, and the scenario I'm trying to implement:
Classes:
SearchItem: Interface
SearchGroup: implements SearchItem, empty constructor,
             addSearchItem (requires SearchDimension and SearchConstraint, or just a SearchItem),
             setComparisonOperator
SearchParameter: implements SearchItem, constructor requires SearchDimension and SearchConstraint objects
Search: extends SearchGroup, constructor requires TableId object
RetrieveLimitedRecordsCommand: setSearch method requires Search object
FieldDimension: constructor requires FieldId object or FieldIds[] fieldPath
TextSearchConstraint: constructor requires string value and int comparisonOperator(enum)
BooleanSearchConstraint: constructor requires boolean value
Scenario:
Okay, so say we have a main table, Products. We want to search the table for the following:
field IsActive = true
field ProductColor = red or blue or green
So the question is how to build this search with the above classes? Everything I've tried so far results in the following error:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException: Search group nesting is currently not supported.
     at com.sap.mdm.search.SearchGroup.addSearchItem(Unknown Source)
I can do just the ProductColor search like this:
Search mySearch = new Search(<Products TableId>);
mySearch.setComparisonOperator(Search.OR_OPERATOR);
FieldDimension myColorFieldDim = new FieldDimension(<ProductColor FieldId>);
TextSearchConstraint myTextConRed = new TextSearchConstraint("red",TextSearchConstraint.EQUALS);
TextSearchConstraint myTextConBlue = new TextSearchConstraint("blue",TextSearchConstraint.EQUALS);
TextSearchConstraint myTextConGreen = new TextSearchConstraint("green",TextSearchConstraint.EQUALS);
mySearch.addSearchItem(myColorFieldDim,myTextConRed);
mySearch.addSearchItem(myColorFieldDim,myTextConBlue);
mySearch.addSearchItem(myColorFieldDim,myTextConGreen);
the question is how do I add the AND of the BooleanSearchConstraint?
FieldDimension myActiveFieldDim = new FieldDimension(<IsActive FieldId>);
BooleanSearchConstraint myBoolCon = new BooleanSearchConstraint(true);
I can't just add it to mySearch because mySearch is using OR operator, so it would return ALL of the Products records that match IsActive = true. I tried creating a higher level Search object like this:
Search topSearch = new Search(<Products TableId>);
topSearch.setComparisonOperator(Search.AND_OPERATOR);
topSearch.addSearchItem(mySearch);
topSearch.addSearchItem(myActiveFieldDim,myBoolCon);
But when I do this I get the above "Search group nesting is currently not supported" error. Does that mean this kind of search cannot be done with the new MDM API?

I'm actually testing a pre-release of SP05 right now, and it still is not functional. The best that can be done is to use a PickListSearchConstraint to act as an OR within a field. But PickList is limited to lookup Id values, text attribute values, numeric attribute values and coupled attribute values. It works for me in some cases where I have lookup Id values, but not in other cases where the users want to search on multiple text values within a single field.

It is possible that there is a problem with the files [http://kb.mozillazine.org/sessionstore.js sessionstore.js] and sessionstore.bak in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Profile Folder]
Delete [http://kb.mozillazine.org/sessionstore.js sessionstore.js] and sessionstore.bak in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Profile Folder]
* Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Open Containing Folder
If you see files sessionstore-##.js with a number in the left part of the name like sessionstore-1.js then delete those as well.
Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups to get lost, so you will have to create them again (make a note).

Multiple Problems with my 3rd Reader

I've owned the right to a Sony PRS-600 Reader for the past Two years. After my first one broke down due to unknown causes, it was returned refurbished within the month. The second time the refurbished Reader broke down (same model) I waited six months for a refurbished model that was returned to me Tuesday last week. Now, I'm experiencing multiple problems; when I log on to my account with or without my Reader plugged in, I get a message that says, "This device has been reported lost. please contact our customer support." Seeing as finding customer support has been difficult for me, I figured htis was the next best place to go to find help. The Sony Reader Library has been attached to 9 computers (unsure of how that can be, considering how I only have five) and two Reader's that named themselves Device 2 and 5. I can't authrowize my new Reader to my account for a reason I don't understand. Has one of my past readers been reported lost? Or my account? What does that even mean? Before my last Reader was sent in after it broke down, I moved some of my 150 books (which I can't afford to loose) onto an SD chip, but whenever I try to read some of the books that are on my chip in my new Reader, I get a symbol with text that says "Protected Page". I've loved my past Readers, but after all that has happened, I'm starting to give up. What am I doing wrong? What do I need to do to fix this issue?

Thank you for your post and welcome to the forum.
It's appears that the authorizations have got mixed up - this is something Reader Store customer support can resolve for you. Give them a call and they can get the Reader authorized and registered properly for you - their number is on the following page:
