Need some headphoen replacements, 5.1 or n

I'm sure this has been discussed to sdeath, but my headphones are dying, the crackling and static noises has been getting worse recently, and I'm quite sure it's the headphones, as the gedimensional headsets are infamous for being crackly at a certain bass levels. My xfi needs new headphones.
So here's the thing, I need some new headphones, and the question ot multi layered. Firstly, 5. or not? Some people swear by the new 5.'s, but others have said that using 5. headphones on a creative xfi is an absolute waste. The problem is good stereo headphoens with a boom mic is hard to find. Everyone screams sennheisser, but I need a little more choice than just sennheisser. So, what ever I should go, 5. or not, which ones work well with the xfi thats under 50 canadian pre tax? It's gotta have a boom mic, as I game quite a bit. I'd prefer stereo, as not to waste the CMSS3d, but if there's something for a respectable cost that will outdo a good set of stereo with CMSS3d, I'm all for it too.

these are worth a look !!
nice sounding comfortable and most importantly the mike can be separated from the headset as it is a separate wire and plug!! I normally have the mike clipped on to a shelf about 8 inches from my mouth and can be heard very clearly in skype! this is useful if you have surround speakers and do not want to keep fiddling arround the back when swapping between headphones and speakers. There is a problem with the mike out (mike2) on the front I/O box on the x-fi that a lot of peeps have found including me in which it is difficult to get the mike working properly when plugged into the box though it works well on the mike port on the soundcard!! speakers automatically mute when headphones are inserted. the cmss3d takes a bit of getting used to but i am a bit deaf ;-)
Though in hindsight i feel that although the x-fi does sound good I could have spent my money elsewhere and carried on with my old audigy which was rock solid!!
I did speak with creative support on the phone but they could not help me to get the mike 2 port working correctly!! (and in case soembody posts ref the difficulties with certain games the issue is with the creative hardware and software and not the battlefield issue !!)

Need some clarification on Replacement Path with Variable

Hello Experts,
Need some clarification on Replacement Path with Variable.
We have 2 options with replacement path for characteristic variables i.e.
1) Replace with query
2) Replace with variable.
Now, when we use "Replace with variable" we give the variable name. Then we get a list for "Replace with" as follows:
1) Key
2) External Characteristic Value Key
3)Label
4)Attribute value.
I need detailed explanation for the above mentioned 4 options with scenarios.
Thanks in advance.

Replaced zd8000 motherboard and need some troubleshooting help please............

Hello All,
I just replaced the motherboard on our HP zd8000 (pentium 4, 3.0ghz, 2gb ram, Win XP) with a used but tested good MB and need some help with the following.
1) I now cannot play DVD movies as the error no "dvd decoder" present which was not an issue before? Where can I go to get a free decoder that will work, as Windows only shows paid versions? We have the dvd burner/reader with lightscribe. SOLVED! CNET HAD DECODER.
2) The internal temperature, according to SpeedFan, is running around 140 degrees with just some Internet browsing. Is that a normal temperature because I only have one of three fans running on the laptop? Is there anyway of making all three fans run to be sure there are no issues? I am positive I hooked up everything but again only one fan seems to be running?
3) I discovered some of the pins were damaged in the card reader. I may get the Seller to give me a discount, no intention of tearing it apart simply for that, but is there any concern of short or otherwise?
4) Our battery stopped charging years ago, these were notorious for such, but I purchased a new one last year and hoped the replacement MB would allow charging again. No such luck though. Is there anything I can do, BIOS update etc, to make the battery charge?
5) Anything you folks can think of for me to test to insure the new motherboard is working properly?
Thanks, Ralph
P.S. This was a correct replacement board according to MB serial numbers. Everything else seems to be functioning properly other than mentioned. Our graphics went out on the original MB.
This question was solved.
View Solution.

Some of the wires had pushed out of the harness that connected the other two fans. I double checked and re-attached those so now the laptop is running quite a bit cooler.
EVERYTHING IS GOOD TO GO!

Problem 2
2.1 If user account of the sap* is lost u can retrive by loging into os level as sidadm type this command
DELETE SAP<sid>.USR02 where BNAME='SAP*' AND MANDT=100
This 100 is the client in which u want to delete the sap*
after that restart the server and login as sap* with the default password as pass
there is also another way of doing this if needed u can catch me at [email protected]

I am lost and need some guidance

Please bear with me for being so explicit on my posting, but I don't have a simpler way. But need some ideas to create a simple, safe workflow that includes back up.
I only use my Int HD (350GB), to install and run Apps; otherwise, I use Ext HDs. I have approximate 150GB of images, and another 50 GB of misc. files.
I have the following Ext HD:
1- 2 TB FW/USB -got a great deal brand new
2- 1 TB FW/USB already in use. I have 1 Partition (250 GB) while I was using Tiger
I used it to create a Boot up Dr, backing up Apps. But no longer use it.
I have been having some difficulty with this drive; sometimes it doesn't get recognized or stays on. I will be replacing the electric power cord, and all cables.
I am not sure if I should invest the time to re-format the entire drive and eliminate the Partition or just leave untouched.
3- 500 GB USB - secondary copy (non-RAI)
4- 350 GB USB - third copy (off site)
I am trying to decide how to use these drives, and hopefully, without the need to re-formatting them, but who knows. In addition, I would like to take advantage of TM for my back up.
5 Which DR should I set up as my destination DR for TM?
If I use the 2 TB is it better to set as RAID 0,better performance but if one drive fails, I'd be SOL, right?
On the other hand RAID 1, the redundancy factor would increase overhead. Any suggestion.
I also use Lightroom and would like to know how I should set it up to back up LR (non-image).
And lastly, about TM can I be select a specific source files for back ups? And can I back up different source Drives?
Is there a way that I could prevent TM not to back up Cache, because it will increase the overhead
Again, any suggestion would be appreciated

crossover wrote:
I called Applecare yesterday and told me that TM only works with the Internal HD, no other DR, not sure about that. I usually get better answers here than wasting my time calling them, go figure.
That's just plain wrong. Some of them don't seem to know much about Time Machine except the basics (and, to be fair, most Mac users don't have data on external drives, so it likely doesn't come up much). But yes, TM will back-up any internal or directly-attached external USB or F/W drive/partition, as long as it's formatted Mac OS Extended. In fact, in most cases it will do that by default -- if you don't want something backed-up, you have to specifically exclude it.
I have never tried TM and not sure if that would be a good workflow or just use other Apps like the one you mentioned
There are advantages and disadvantages to TM, as with any other app. One of the main advantages of TM is the very fast, hourly, incremental backups of additions and changes. This gives you an excellent chance of recovering a previous version of something that was changed or deleted in error (such as "Save" instead of "Save as"), or somehow corrupted.
And there really isn't any workflow, once it's set up (which is also quite easy). TM just does it's thing.
First it does a full backup of everything on your system (less some caches, system workfiles, logs, trash, etc.). That, of course, is a lengthy process.
Thereafter, it will do an incremental backup hourly, as long as your Mac is awake and the external drive is attached.
It automatically "thins" your backups, including when the TM drive/partition gets near full, deleting the oldest backups to make room for new ones.

Error: Ink Needs to be Replaced - HP Officejet 4635

Hello! I've been having some issues with my HP Officejet 4635. I just enrolled with HP Instant Ink and recieved the two cartridges. The black cartridge is the only one working. The printer keeps saying that the color cartridge must be replaced. Before I enrolled with HP Instant Ink, I was using HP genuine cartridges and do use another older HP printer.I have tried *everything* in the help FAQs: wiping the electrical contacts as instructed, restarting the printer by unplugging the power cords, re-inserting the cartridge, etc. So please spare me those instructions again, ugh. I also checked for driver updates and such. I'm going to guess that the electrical contacts in the printer are damaged? The error says the cartridge needs to be replaced. Is there a way to hack or bypass this because the color catridge is brand new. Please help and thank you.

Thanks - I chatted online with HP and that is exactly what they had me try but still had no luck so they seem to think it is a defective cartridge and are sending a new one. I don't think that it is the cartridge but maybe in the compartment where the cartridge goes. Unfortunately it is really hard to get your finger in there to clean. I put in a new hp cartridge yesterday and for the time being it is working. If it happens again I guess I will figure a better way to clean in the unit.

Older MacPro Tower - Optical Drive needs to be replaced

I have an older MacPro Tower (OS X 10.7.5) and my original optical drive needs to be replaced. I need to read and write CDs and DVDs. I also occasionally need to read and write DVD+R DL (dual layer) media.
Could I use a unit like the Pioneer BDR-209 DBK? Will it work reliably with CD and DVD media? The reason I ask is that as BDR media drops in price, I would like to start using this (due to the higher capacity) for backing up data.
I'm hoping to be able to confirm this unit will work before purchasing it. If there is a better alternative, please let me know. If there is a reason to stay with a traditional CD/DVD writer, then please tell me and recommend a good unit that is reasonable and reliable.
Thank you.

here's my 2 cents on this: there should be 2 sata ports on your logic boards. However, getting to them is a pain in the rear. If you want to try that way, by all means do so. However, you can get a Sata to Pata bridge board which attaches to the rear of the Sata drive and lets it be used without having to try to find the sata connectors. That way you can use more modern drives. I bought something from MCE and it worked just fine (it's a blu-ray, btw). Installation was a snap. My original CD/DVD drive failed and I didn't want to mess around trying to find a replacement ATAPI (or PATA) drive. The only real caveats I have to tell you are: If you want to play and view Blu-Ray discs in your MacPro tower, you'll have to buy a 2nd party blu ray player. Same with burning Blu-ray discs. You'll have to buy some kind of upgrade to Toast if that's what you used to burn stuff before. however, if all you want to do is burn standard CD's and DVD's then it'll work just fine. the pioneer may have issues with sleeping, but I can't confirm this for sure either way
just my opinion on this.

IPhone 5 reboot loop. Need some help

My iPhone5 suddenly reboots and it repeats that every 5-10 mins. The problem gets worse when connected to the computer. Sometimes, when battery is low, it goes off and doesnt turn on, but when connected to the computer, it shows the white apple screen and then goes off and does this repeatedly.
On reading some blogs online, i tried to restore the software but it didnt help. I even tried restoring it through a downloaded IPSW, even that didnt help.
Can someone please tell me what could be the solution? As my phone is out of warranty, service centre execs tell me to go for a replacement by paying an amount which is significant, dont want to spend so much. Need some urgent help.

Restore as a NEW device (not from a backup). If the problem continues, that means you have a hardware problem and have no choice but to replace the device. If the problem is solved, that means there is some corruption in your backup file or maybe one of your apps is causing it. Try adding your apps back one at a time until the problem returns.

HT1222 I need some help.... I Have the iPhone 4S and downloaded the new software (6.0) and everything seems great so far except when I try to open a link in safari from a different app (messages, Facebook, ext..) it glitches and won't load. Any advice?

I need some help.... I Have the iPhone 4S and downloaded the new software (6.0) and everything seems great so far except when I try to open a link in safari from a different app (ie..messages, Facebook, ect..) it glitches and won't load. The blue loading bar will just jump back and forth and the page will not load properly if at all....

It sounds like you may have multiple problems, but none of them are likely to be caused by malware.
First, the internet-related issues may be related to adware or a network compromise. I tend to lean more towards the latter, based on your description of the problem. See:
http://www.adwaremedic.com/kb/baddns.php
http://www.adwaremedic.com/kb/hackedrouter.php
If investigation shows that this is not a network-specific issue, then it's probably adware. See my Adware Removal Guide for help finding and removing it. Note that you mention AdBlock as if it should have prevented this, but it's important to understand that ad blockers do not protect you against adware in any way. Neither would any kind of anti-virus software, which often doesn't detect adware.
As for the other issues, it sounds like you've got some serious corruption. I would be inclined to say it sounds like a failing drive, except it sounds like you just got it replaced. How did you get all your files back after the new drive was installed?

Need some help with: implement email notification on note board within a page layout (javascript)

Dear all,
I have a quite specific issue in which I'm in need of some guidance and help!
Within our SharePoint I have created a custom page layout. This is a simple page to post some content (news) and a standard Note Board is implemented.
Every time a news item is placed, this is done by our communication departement, this page with standard layout is placed as a page in a page library. When there are no comments on that particular item/subject I found a solution to replace the standard SharePoint_no_posts-text
by placing a contenteditor web part in the Page Layout with a reference to a textfile with some javascript in it. This works perfectely.
The only thing left is that I want to automatically send an email to the contact (which is defined when making the news item) everytime someone posts a new comment. Here is where I need some help!
We don't really use mysites so I was wondering if someone could tell how I could do this by for example some code (javascript) which I can implement in the Page Layout.
Can anyone help me?
Thanks in advance,
Gr Matt

Try below code:
function sendMail() {
var link = 'mailto:?subject=insert subject line&body=';
var curntLoc=window.location.href;
link +=escape(curntLoc);
window.location.href = link;
// window.location.href = link;

Having some serious issues with my iPhone and need some advice

I'm going to these two issues which have been occuring with me for the past weeks-
1.) I am facing a problem with my iPhone 5's lightning port or the cable. This started happening all of a sudden; one second my phone is charging, and the other it is not. Even if it is slightly moved from its position, it would stop charging, and further shaking starts it again, so on and so forth. At first I thought the issue might be with my cable, so I asked my friend to bring his lightning cable to my house so we could test that. It happened again- one shake the phone will charge, another shake stops it. (Note that any kind of movement does this, not only shaking) I'm a bit skeptical about his (my friend's) cable too, though- it shows NOT CHARGING on his iPad while it is in fact actually charging. His cable is only 3-4 weeks old though, so this confuses me even more. I think the issue might be with my port, but as of now I cannot draw a valid conclusion to my problem.
2.) The second problem is that I've noticed my battery drains a **** lot faster now- ever since the first issue started. I manage to get my phone charging by placing it very carefully on the table and it charges overnight. However, when I pick it up in the morning, and read some news, it drains from 100% to 99% in ~60 seconds. This never happened before. Before this, it used to be at 100% for at least 10-15 minutes (might be even more). If I reboot my phone, it shows 100% again, but it still drains a lot faster now. I know because I've been using this phone for the past 4 months now, and I know when it drains and when it does nots
Please, help! I need some advice as to how I should approach this problem. My phone is in the warranty period, however, I would like to have an expert's opinion first.

Hello,
First: I've experienced the same problem with my iPhone 5. I've bought a new charger and it still did the same thing. I went to the Apple Store to get my iPhone checked out and they said that the pins inside my iPhone we're damaged, and I had to get a replacement.

Hello fastuca. Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
Let's double-check your base stations' settings ...
o If practical, place the base stations in near proximity to each other during the setup phase. Once done, move them to their desired locations.
o Open AirPort Utility and select the Time Capsule (TC).
o Choose Manual Setup from the Base Station menu, or double-click the base station to open the configuration in a separate window. Enter the base station password if necessary.
o Click AirPort in the toolbar, and then click Wireless.
o Choose “Create a wireless network” from the Wireless Mode pop-up menu, and then select the “Allow this network to be extended” checkbox.
o Next, select the 802.11n AirPort Express Base Station (AXn) that will extend this network, and choose Manual Setup from the Base Station menu, or double-click the base station to open its configuration in a separate window. Enter the base station password if necessary.
o Choose “Extend a wireless network” from the Wireless Mode pop-up menu, and then choose the network you want to extend from the Network Name pop-up menu.
o Enter the base station network and base station password is necessary.
o Click Update to update the base station with new network settings.
