Need help using iErase to zero out iphone 3GS

I'm about to buy an iphone5 and need to wipe my iphone 3GS. After backing it up on itunes, I restored the old iphone to erase everything. I had planned to then install iErase to zero out the free space. Here's my problem. After I restored my phone I couuldn't figure out how to put iErase back on it. While in itunes, I selected the iErase app to install and hit sync. Itunes proceeded to sync everything back onto my iphone (apps, contacts, etc.). I must have missed a step.
I tried to restore again. After this eraseed everything, I connected it to my Mac and itunes started to automatically back up my now "restored" iphone despite the fact that I have automatic back ups deselected. It eliminated my previous backup that had all my stuff. Fortunately I was ables to select an older backup to restore and was able to retrieve my data.
This has been a major pain. I need to do all of this before I trade my phone in at AT&T when I go to buy my iphone5. Can anyone help?
Thanks

Because that doesn't really erase the content. It just designates it as free space. Anyone who knows what they're doing can still find and retrieve all the "erased" data unless it's been zeroed out. IErase replaces everything in the free space with zeros, thus makng it impossible for anyone to find and retrieve the data.

HT4356 Need help using my air printer and iphone 5s...it prints but the page is SMALL.

When using my air printer with my iphone 5s the pdf comes out very small. I've tried numerous times to print different pdf files (from attachments in email) and it won't print an 8 x 11 page, only 3 x 5 size. I finally tried again by opening it with adobe and it printed correctly. Is there a way to get it to work without using adobe?

The paper size would normally be coming from the application rather than some setting in the driver. I've never seen the Generic PCL driver send a request for B5, but then I do use A4 rather than Letter and I don't have a PCL printer at home to check this. But I do think it has more to do with the application/document being printed.
For the application that you are using, is there are a separate Page Setup menu?
If the page and document is correctly set to Letter, you mention a wireless secure. If you mean something more than a wireless network that requires a password to access it, such as using https to connect to a remote server, then it could be settings for the shared printer queue. Although these shared printers are usually just an access point (throughport) for the remote client. Still, if you do have some additional network server for this secure wireless network, then this could be contributing to the incorrect paper size call.

Need help with itune 10.7 and iphone 3gs, ios 6.

Hi,
My husband dropped my old computer that my itunes was on. My iphone is 3GS that was using IOS 4.3.2 that it was synced with.
Got a new computer and downloaded itunes 10.7.
Was told to backup my iphone on itunes, update my iphone to the latest IOS (6) then to restore from backup.
My husband did that but he feels something happen with the restore from backup.
First we can't add any of the app's or songs to the phone or to get it to sync to itunes.
It will not let us apply only revert.
Any thoughts?

Got it to work by following a "More Like This".
Held down both the home and power buttons until the apple icon showed up.
Waited until the apple icon went away the pushed the home button and slid to unlock.
Hooked up the phone to itunes and surprise, iphone and itunes synced up!

Need help to install & use iErase app to zero out iPhone after restoring/erasing

I plan on buying a ew iPhone5 and trading in my iPhone 3GS. After doing much research on the topic, I've learned that the best way to ensure that no one can find personal data on my old phone is to restore it to the factory settings thus "erasing" all of my data and then to install and run the iErase app that will zero out the hard drive. I bought iErase on itunes and t's on my computer. I restored my old iphone (erasing all my purchased apps including iErase) but when I connect it to my computer to reinstall the iErase app, it syncs and reinstalls all of my personal settings, data, etc.. Am I missing a step? After restoring my phone, it seems that I might have to go into itunes on the phone and repurchase iErase ($6.99). The app iis designed to zero out the free space on the phone and will not touch whatever is installed. Thus I will have to enter my itunes password etc. which won't get zeroed out. I suppose I can just change that later. Any suggestions?
Thanks

What's a DFU mode restore?
Also, I read the reviews as well as others on different sites and it seems that some people aren't using the app correctly. It only zeros out free space on the phone. Many seem to think that it will delete everything on the phone. That's incorrect. If you install and run it without restoring or ersaing your phone first, it will look like nothing happened. All of your info, apps and personal data will still be there. You have to delete all that stuff first (thus designating it as free space) and then run ierase to zero out the deleted info. At least, that's my understanding of how it works.

Need help using dbms_scheduler to submit an immediate job on the database

Hi. I need help using dbms_scheduler to submit an immediate job on the database. Essentially I want to issue a one-time call to an Oracle Stored Procedure - this procedure will then send an email. I've never used dbms_scheduler before, but here's what I have so far.
So my Program is a stored database procedure named 'TTMS.dropperVacationConflict_Notify', but my problem is that I need to pass 3 parameter values to this job each time I run it. This is what I can't figure out. The procedure expects an 'Id' as number(5), begin_dt as a date, and end_dt as a date.
How do I pass these values when I run my job? Can anyone help?
begin
    dbms_scheduler.create_program(program_name=> 'PROG_DROPVACCONFLICTS_NOTIFY',
     program_type=> 'STORED_PROCEDURE',
     program_action=> 'TTMS.dropperVacationConflict_Notify',
     number_of_arguments => 3,
     enabled=>true,
     comments=> 'Procedure to notify PCM of a Dropper Vacation Conflict. Pass in Dropper Id, Begin_dt, and End_dt');
end;
begin
    dbms_scheduler.create_schedule
    (schedule_name=> 'INTERVAL_EVERY5_MINUTES',
     start_date=> trunc(sysdate)+18/24,
     repeat_interval => 'freq=MINUTELY;interval=5',
     end_date => null
     comments=> 'Runtime: Every day all 5 minutes, forever'
end;
begin
    dbms_scheduler.create_job
    (job_name => 'JOB_DROPVACCONFLICTS_NOTIFY',
     program_name => 'PROG_DROPVACCONFLICTS_NOTIFY',
     schedule_name => 'INTERVAL_EVERY5_MINUTES',
     enabled => true,
     auto_drop => true,
     comments => 'Job to notify PCM of Dropper Vacation Conflicts'
end;
/And I use this to execute the job as needed...
begin
    dbms_scheduler.run_job('JOB_DROPVACCONFLICTS_NOTIFY',true);
end;
/

There's no official way to do that. Downgrading was never supported since the first iPhone.

Ai changed my email for my apple id, but i can't change my iCloud ccount because i can't remember my old password, and now i need to use iCloud for my new IPhone but it isn't working, how do i fix that?

i changed my email for my apple id, but i can't change my iCloud account because i can't remember my old password, and now i need to use iCloud for my new IPhone but it isn't working, how do i fix that?

If the old ID is yours, and if your new ID was created by editing the details of this old ID (rather than being an entirely new ID), go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID. Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change. Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address. You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iDevice, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll. When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud). Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was. Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

I need helping using iAds in my application.

I need helping using iAds in my application. I currently am not using any storyboards. I am using Sprite builder for my UI.
I attatched an image ot show all the different file name I have.
Everyone is being used & they all work fully.
The "iAdViewController.h & .m" files are just example codes I looked up and was messing with so that my iAd can work.

I wouldn't even be able to use the Mathscript node in an executable?
What I am trying to do is make a user configurable data stream.
They tell me how many bytes are in the stream and what parameters they
want to be put in to it. Currently I have to make vi's that are
called dynamicaly to make the parameters.   Then recompile
the code and send it to them. This is somewhat of how the config
file is set up so I know how to make the data.
Data_Type foo
Bytes 30
parameter_name
function
   byte#          format
sync
foo_sync
29               int
time
foo_time
1,2,3,4    double
If I can't use MathScript to allow the user to make there own functions
is there another way that I might be able to do this so I do not have
to recompile the code atleast? Were I might just be able to make
the new function and send that to them.
Any Idea would be great.

Re: Beginner needs help using a array of class objects, and quick

Dear Cynthiaw,
I just read your Beginner needs help using a array of class objects, and quick of Dec 7, 2006 9:25 PM . I really like your nice example.
I also want to put a question on the forum and display the source code of my classe in a pretty way as you did : with colors, indentation, ... But how ? In html, I assume. How did you generate the html code of your three classes ? By help of your IDE ? NetBeans ? References ?
I already posted my question with six source code classes ... in text mode --> Awful : See "Polymorphism did you say ?"
Is there a way to discard and replace a post (with html source code) in the Sun forum ?
Thanks for your help.

You aren't addressing anyone from Apple here. This is a user forum.
You might want to call a neaby Apple store to see if they have a free class you could attend.
