New network (and much more) monitor for XFCE panel

A few years ago I wrote a tiny app to show a text network monitor in the XFCE panel, resembling the previous one I was familiarized with (in KDE?).
The past month I started fixing a bug and ended in a full rewrite, but keeping the original simplicity (at least in the panel bar) despite that now reports far more than the network activity.
The installation instructions are the same: download a single file (no dependencies), compile it, add a Generic Monitor Applet (XFCE) to the panel and configure it to load the new executable.
I have updated the wiki page, but the full instructions and code is now hosted at github: "Hacker's Monitor for XFCE". Yes, it has a new name also.
Here follows a screenshot with the mouse over the applet to open the tooltip (yes, I was intentionally doing a dd from /dev/sda into /dev/null ):

I use a Withings scale. Yes, it requires the Withings apps but syncing has been pretty seamless. The HealthKit framework is designed to allow applications to share information. At this point, it doesn't appear to be designed to allow devices to share information with the Health app directly. Given the fairly rudimentary nature of the way information is displayed by Health, this makes sense. Health is great for making sure that the weight data from my Withings scale gets synced to My Fitness Pal and Runkeeper. It's far more useful to me to see my weight data in MFP where it is used with the food diary and the movement data from my UP24 to give me a good picture of what I need to be doing. Health just doesn't really compare. It gives you basic graphs and that's about it.
So, I guess what I'm saying is don't discount the scales that require an app. The Withings app is very nice. It also lets me take my resting pulse every morning (which is sent to Health).

Just updated to itunes 12.1.0.71 - big problem - can no longer access the legacy "Get Info" where you could change multiple files, easily add artwork, add album name for TV show, and much more. In previous iTunes 12 you'd right click

Just updated to itunes 12.1.0.71 - big problem - can no longer access the legacy "Get Info" where you could change multiple files, easily add artwork, add album name for TV show, and much more. In previous iTunes 12 you'd right click and hold shift key and be able to get to it. Anyone figured this out?

The "legacy" metadata editors, for which there was a "back door" in iTunes 12.0, have gone from 12.1. However, the revised editors in 12.1 provide access to (almost) all the metadata elements that were available in iTunes 11, albeit in a different layout and with some additional constraints based on media kind. Some users have / will have an issue with the statement that "Get Info has been completely redesigned in iTunes 12 to focus your attention only on what’s necessary for the selected item" since that removes some metadata elements that people may have been using in creative ways. iTunes 12.1 basically gives you access to the fields that Apple think are necessary ... . Some of the things that have been excluded by this rule:
track and disc number fields for video media kinds
show and episode fields for music
description tab for audiobooks made up of more than one file
Obviously the first two examples can be regarded as "overloading" the metadata elements - i.e., using them in ways that the designers didn't intend - but given that some users do find valid cases for this it's a shame that they've been deprecated in the new UI. There are couple of workarounds:
in songs view (or any of the other columnar views), you can still select any fields to display, independent of media kind, and these can be edited (though only one at a time) by double-clicking in the relevant "cell"
you can (temporarily) change the media kind of an item (or group of items) to get access to metadata elements that would otherwise be inaccessible.
It may be worth submitting an issue via https://www.apple.com/feedback/itunesapp.html - I can't see it as a huge development task to have a user preference to switch between "show all fields" and "filter fields based on media kind".
One other oddity/irritation is that some of the tabs don't, by default, show all the available fields - you need to scroll up/down to access them or to expand the window by dragging on one of its corners. Fortunately, the latter seems to be persistent - once you've done this to make all the fields visible the editor will open at the same (larger) size when opened again.

Difference between new network and extended network

Difference between extended network and new network settings

An "extended" network acts as one large wireless network. Wireless devices can roam anywhere a signal is present and stay on the network without having to make any changes.
A "new" network will require that a wireless device manually "switch" to that network and enter the password for the network to connect whenever you want to use that network. In other words, a "new" network will use a different wireless network name and password, which will require that you manually log on to that network.
The exception would be if you created a "new" wireless network and used the same wireless network name, same wireless security settings and same password as the "main" network and connected the AirPort back to the main router using an Ethernet cable. In that case, you would have an "Ethernet extended wireless" network.

My computer was stolen so I deauthorized all computers that had iTunes on them on 10/28/2011. I have a new computer and it was authorized for iTunes. When I checked my account it says I have 2 authorized computers, but this one should be the only one.

I don't want whoever stole my old computer to be able to use my iTunes account.

Get all that music back in itunes and sync again.

I'm installing the new OS and iPhone is asking for a password to "restore" my iPhone, but I've never used a password for the phone and don't know what it is!

You selected Encrypt iPhone Backups in iTunes. Then you entered a password.
It would be that specific password it is asking for.

Thanks for the question Sandoss. This is something that we all come across at sometime.
Thanks & regards, Sumit Agrawal
The lack of this feature is an inexcusable oversight for an enterprise management product. They have some serious lightweights making design decisions on the SCOM team. 5 thumbs down.
BTW the answer is probably LOTS of stuff. Literally 100's of workflows are running on any server.
The following OpsMgr DB query will list all running monitors on a server. Change the name of @srv. I think this works pretty well. I'd like some feedback if something is missing.
DECLARE @srv varchar(30)
SET @srv = 'your name here'
SELECT mon.displayName as monitor, bme.FullName,bme.DisplayName as object,
case
    when s.HealthState = 1 then 'healthy'
    when s.HealthState = 2 then 'Warning'
    when s.HealthState = 3 then 'Critical'
    else 'N/A'
end as Health
FROM state AS s WITH (NOLOCK)
left join BaseManagedEntity as bme WITH (NOLOCK) on s.basemanagedentityid = bme.basemanagedentityid
left join dbo.MonitorView Mon WITH (NOLOCK) on Mon.ID = s.monitorid
where
bme.FullName like '%' + @srv + '%'
and s.HealthState <> 0
and mon.IsInternalRollupMonitor = 0
and mon.IsExternalRollupMonitor = 0
order by bme.DisplayName, mon.displayName

The new table and Columns to look for in picking headers, etc

Hi,
What are the new tables and columns to look for mapping the following old ones:
1) Pick_Slip_Number from So_Picking_Headers,
2) Sequence_Number from SO_Picking_lines
3) Line_ID from So_Note_References
Thanks and Regards,
Praveen

AUDIO TO SCORE is gone and it was much more precise for drum doubling than the doubling function itself.

AUDIO TO SCORE. I used that all the time for drum doubling for the following reasons:
In Logic 9 i always used audio to score for drum doubling because it had much more control over essential parameters than the drum replacement window. Parameters like: Granulation, Smooth Release and Attack Range made sure that i didn't have any flams, too few notes, too many notes etc etc. AND you could see in the sample editor (below the waveform) immediately the effect of the changes made in those parameters!
Now with these parameters gone and only the drum doubling function left, what was a real pro function has become much more cumbersome to use. You can no longer see in detail what changes in parameters does to the out-coming midi. And the lack of the detailed parameters makes drum doubling drop or miss notes, makes flams with the original drum track etc etc.... In short. The drum doubling function is inadequate for pro results.
So this is my suggestion: Apple probably wont reinstate audio to score as it was (i'd love it if they did, it's essential to me and others who does rock mixes in logic instead of protools). But you can do something that's even better:
In the audio file editor (previously the sample editor) make the old audio to score into an advanced drum doubling/replacement editor. Take the audio to score window and parameters and reinstate them BUT instead of outputting different note values make them output to a desired note of the users choice (e.g C1). Without opening the library. It cluters the window and often people want to use their own drum software than apples samples.
It's the realtime view in the bottom of the audiofile editor that makes a difference. And the missing parameters. Without these things a good outcome is based on luck rather than visual reference.

I was doing drum replacement ( adding ) with Audio-to-score for years, and must say, drum replacement is working for me without any flams and much better and 2x faster. I think it is pro feature, with advanced transient detector. Only problem is velocity,as in Audio-to-score.
If automatic threshold not working on some material, you can do fine transient edits in audio editor with visual realtime feedback, you can change output note and delay globally. Also you can hear ( in compare with Audio-to-score), that's why library is opened and sample replacement -after, not difficult to do.

AirPort Extreme extends my network and has worked well for three months. Now it can no longer extend the network and flashes Amber. I have restored to factory settings moved it closer to time capsule and rebooted the system without luck

i have a blinking Amber on my extreme now and it cannot extend the network. It was working fine and nothing has changed. I have restored to factory settings moved it to another room and rebooted the system without luck. Any suggestions

What OS are you running?
Please give me a screenshot of the current AE setup..
I strongly recommend if you have issues.. take control of all the variables. Apple routers have too much auto..
Here is a list that I use for setups when using Yosemite.. but it relates to any OS.
You will need to factory reset again to get going.
Factory reset universal
Power off the AE.. ie pull the power cord or power off at the wall.. wait 10sec.. hold in the reset button.. be gentle.. power on again still holding in reset.. and keep holding it in for another 10sec. You may need some help as it is hard to both hold in reset and apply power. It will show success by rapidly blinking the front led. Release the reset.. and wait a couple of min for the AE to reset and come back with factory settings. If the front LED doesn’t blink rapidly you missed it and simply try again. The reset is fairly fragile in these.. press it so you feel it just click and no more.. I have seen people bend the lever or even break it. I use a toothpick as tool.
Then redo the setup from the computer with Yosemite or whatever you are using.
1. Use very short names.. NOT APPLE RECOMMENDED names. No spaces and pure alphanumerics.
eg AEgen5 for basestation.
Use AE24ghz and AE5ghz for wireless on each band, with fixed channels as this also seems to help stop the nonsense.
2. Use all passwords that also comply but can be a bit longer. ie 8-20 characters mixed case and numbers.. no non-alphanumerics.
3. Ensure the AE always takes the same IP address.. this is not a problem for router but if the AE is bridged you can have trouble.. Try using the static IP method or control it via the main router dhcp reservations.
4. Check your share name on the computer/s is not changing.. make sure it also complies with the above.. short no spaces and pure alphanumeric..
5. Make sure IPv6 is set to link-local only in the computer. For example wireless open the network preferences, wireless and advanced / TCP/IP.. and fix the IPv6. to link-local only.
6. Set up the extend to the Express using 2.4ghz and then see how good or bad the connection is.. this is better in the old v5 utility but if you hover your mouse over where it shows connection an extra chunk of info comes up.
I have specifically used 5ghz to make the extend.. because by testing it works better.. but do not be fooled.. this good connection is poor.. the RSSI.. which is difference signal .. at -79dbm is down the bottom of the stable.. and it drops out on a daily basis.. you want to see that signal around -60dbm at min.
There is a lot more jiggery pokery you can try but the above is a good start.. if you find it still unreliable.. don't be surprised.

A simple selection of objects behind and much more

Selecting things under a different object in the Illustartor is sometimes very annoying.
For proper selection of objects was invented several tools. Please use them alternately depending on the situation.
- outline mode
- preferences = object selections by patch only
- menu Lock = lock selection, All artwork above other layers
+ isloate mode
+ smart guides
+ layers (pity that to this day can not enable the option automatically locates the object)
But still the selection of one object over time requires a lot of time and clicking. Especially if they are just above or below.
The Blender is such a great option. According to me, works well and is easy to use. You can work on hundreds of superimposed objects, and continues to act quickly. it is not perfect but I would very I would see in Illustrtaor. However, this requires a better reflection of the current use of the objects in Illustrator than it is today.
New Method of Selection:
1. Click on an object once and you select an object on top,
2. for any re-clicking LBM selects an object underneath. Simple, fast and understandable.
+. By clicking and selecting objects at the same time watching a dream in which Appearance palette name and see what properties of the selected object.
+. Adding to the selection or subtraction:
         - When I have selected the correct object can click on the layer name
          - Layer palette displays a view of all layers
          - New: Automatically expanding palette view to show the structure of the objectindicated in the structure of the layers and stack.
          - Now I can easily add or subtract to the selection of other objects or select just another object.
Important to work with this method to modify the interface illustartor.
1. Palette Appearance must expand and show more things. For example, as in this description:
    http://forums.adobe.com/message/3024803#3024803
2. This rapid work with objects should also improve the Illustrator interface and make it more useful.
     Quick change opportunity to give a name or a group or object.
     Even now it is missing this opportunity. Even now it is missing this opportunity. For example, click and change the name in these views:
     One Clik and change name of layers or object or group or patch...
Note. If it can be easily and quickly rename objects. RBM is an option on the menu will show that the category of the popup list of objects under the cursor.
It would be enough to click on the object and would be selected. Super for me!
3. New. The new functionality.
     - Appearance palette retains the settings of the object was last selected. Just as color palette ikon "Out of... Click to correct".
The appearance palette, she could be named: "Last appearance use. Click to Add or Click+Alt to show".
     - This allows me to select a different object, and quickly give it the properties of the previous one.
     - Or click on the icon of the previous appearance when they are showing up and I choose only the one I want to use the new facility, eg by drag & drop the icon of the appearance of the currently selected object. — Something like a story last selected object appearance to choose to use the newfacility.
Or better. Drop-down list to the history of recently used names of objects.
The choice would result in giving the highlighted current object stored Apperance.Alt + Click does not change the selected object apperance just simply list Apperance with the possibility of drag and drop individual features in the current Apperance select object.
Appearance to such a list could choose to display in the view layers palette by clicking on the icon Apperance.
Of course, the idea presented is not conclusive, show just the way we work withillustartor expect from a modern program.
After the present work in Illustartorze are really very complex and currentlydevotes much time on it just to check something.
Currently Illustartor reminds me of a Christmas tree with different ideas than theprofessional tool for my daily earning.
I spend my time like other colleagues on this forum because I support the idea, and Adobe Illustrator.
I hope someone appreciates it. I've been looking around for an idea for anotherprogram to work with vectors.

T-code SUIM taking much more time for generating output for profie change.

Hi All
We want to extract report for profile addition and deletion for Users in ECC 6. While executing the the t-code SUIM it is taking much more time (taking more than 20 hrs). This problem is coming after patch application
Please give the solution/Suggest to minimize the time taken in report generation.

Hello Prasad,
The reason for the performance trouble is a new feature regarding the user change documents. Since note 874850 and 1015043 you will get a more complete overview about the changes regarding a user.
The disadvantage of that new feature is, that in some customer system usage scenario, the performance is very poor. That's the case, if the central change documents are intensivly used also by other applications and the tables CDPOS, CDHDR, ... contains a very big count of rows. Unfortunatly the user change documents can not be searched by the key columns of the central change docs. - so the bad response time can explained.
What now ... ?
There are some work arounds to get the change documents on faster way.
1st. - You can get the former report output and performance if you
       would use the report RSUSR100 instead of the new RSUSR100N in
       separate mode.
2nd. - If you want to use the new report RSUSR100N directly and only
       want to get the information about the traditional topics
       (content of USH* tables) you should only mark the search areas
       on the tabstrip 'user attributes') to get a better performance.
     - furthermore limit the date range, if possible
3rd. - You should regulary (monthly) archive the user relevant documents
       for PFCG and IDENTITY from the central change documents.
       As per our note 1079207 chapter 3 you can reload that archives
       into more selective tables.
       The selection for change documents will be rather faster over
       reloaded archived documents than the documents in the
       central change documents tables.
Best Regards,
Guilherme de Oliveira.

Multiple (3 or more) monitors for PXI 8110 controller?

I'm just fishing for help from the NI community out there to help a customer: has anyone had success using the PXI 8110 with multiple (3 or more) monitors? I believe it can inherently support 2 monitors. We've tried ADlink and Peritek cPCI cards without success.
If so, please share how you accomplished it. Thanks!

The Apple OS hates unmatched video cards.. and Photoshop CS4 shows you that clearly.
I started with 2 nVidia 7300s... upgraded to 1 nVidia 8800 and kept 1 nVidia 7300... crashed every 10 minutes it seems.
Then upgraded to 2 nVidia 8800s. I still get 1 or 2 crashes a day but nothing near what I got with unmatched video cards.
Based on all my research and the crash reports posted it seems clear that the primary cause of the issue is Apple video drivers and their inability to tell the cards apart.In many cases my crashes were occurring because the drivers were asking the 7300 to do things it simply could not do. I found with the matched 8800 cards most days things run fairly smoothly. I will get a crash or two a day, but I can tell immediately when Photoshop is going to crash. Not that that is any help. But I can at least work now. I just must relaunch PS a couple times and save often.
From what I've found there's little you can do. Basically matched video cards help a great deal but they aren't perfect. Remove one card so you are only using a single video card, or wait for Apple to fix drivers (OS10.6 in Sept maybe???). This is clearly a case where Apple embedding drivers in the OS can be an issue because you can't simply download an ATI or nVidia update and install it.
The one thing I haven't tested with the matched 8800 cards is to turn off OpenGL since that's a primary reason for my upgrading (rotating canvas is a life saver). Turning off all Open GL features may make PS more stable on my system with matched cards. I'm not certain. I can definitively tell you that unmatched video cards are a nightmare and matching 8800s are pretty good. Nothing I'm up in arms about and I have the GL features to use.
