Noob help with screen icons

I just got an 8830 and have fumbled through figuring out what most of the icons are. I read all the manuals and asked Sprint for help. They were stumped. I figured out the message icon and how to clear it but sometimes instead of a yellow envelope, it looks like a wireline drawing of an envelope. There are other icons that there is no way to figure out what they are.
For example, next to bluetooth icon, there is something that looks like a crosshair for a rifle scope, next to it, something that looks like speaker waves. Sprint was as clueless as I was.
Is there a sticky or something that could guide us noobs through the unknown icon jungle?

Click here, I think you have a text message: 8800 home screen indicators
For example, next to Bluetooth icon, there is something that looks like a crosshair for a rifle scope, next to it, something that looks like speaker waves. Sprint was as clueless as I was.
That would be your GPS icon. When you have the ))) waves that means it's on. I turn it off when I don't need it.
It saves both battery and memory. Go to the options icon, click on it, advanced options, GPS.
To turn off and on toggle GPS service to 911 or location on location aiding to enabled, disabled.
Thanks,

Need help with screen sharing/VNC

I can't seem to get screen sharing to work. I got my dad an iMac this Christmas and thought I could help him learn it with screen sharing. Not going so well. I tried experimenting with a friend's Macbook and I was able to screen share when we were within wireless range via iChat and Bonjour. But when more remote, the "share screen" icon on iChat is grayed out. My friend tried setting up an AIM account (v 4.7 I think) and we still can't screen share.
So I tried the VNC option with my dad's computer. I went to Finder >Go >Connect to server >entered vnc://Dad's IP address and got the message that it couldn't be found.
All three of the computers in this message have screen sharing turned on, firewall set to accept anyone, and have 10.5.1. We all use DSL modems (from the phone company), connected wirelessly; and I'm the only one with a dot Mac account.

2 ideas
The DSL modems that are provided by my Telephone Company (Centurytel) are all Westell and Netopia routers. The phone company calls them modems, but they are actually routers with a built-in NAT firewall. This means you have to set up port forwarding for VNC to work. The TCP ports to forward are 5500,5800,5900. VNC doesn't use UDP.
If you are both using Leopard, then the free .mac account takes care of the port forwarding problem, and also finding the other party's IP number (the .mac id continues to work for iChat even after the 60 day trial). You both login to .mac, start the chat, and then request to share screens. It's working so well for me that as soon as the 400mb 1.5.2 update becomes available I will start moving my clients over to Leopard

Noob help with workflow

hi. Noob here.. so forgive my stupidity !!
what I am trying to achieve is this ... trying to get infopath form submission repeating values into a sharepoint library as fields.
So I have managed to get the following fields promoted to sharepoint.
Product - product1;product2;product 3;product 4
Price - £50;£60;£70;£80
Qty - 1;50;10;60
How can I parse these strings and extract the substrings into list fields ? Can I do this with a workflow ?
Appreciate any help with this ! thanks

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you wanted to use the workflow to extract the substrings.
To achieve your scenario, we should first retrieve the data from the InfoPath form.
If your workflow is running on an InfoPath form, you can use the technique described in How to retrieve InfoPath form data in a SharePoint
workflow.
If your workflow is running on a list item or document that is not an InfoPath form, you will have to download the InfoPath form from the library in which it is located, and use XPath expressions to access and modify data in the form. See
Specifying namespaces to use XPath queries in InfoPath for examples.
Then we can use the Utility Actions, such as the
Extract Substring from Index of String to extrach the substrings.
There is a good article, you can hava a look at it.

Need help with screen zoom please

I just upgraded from Tiger to Leopard. When I had the old Tiger software installed, I was able to zoom in and out on my screen by holding down the Control key while scrolling with my mouse. But since I installed Leopard (not Snow Leopard, since I am using a G5 Tower PowerPC), this key combination no longer works. This former screen zoom feature is important to me because I am a graphic designer with a neurological condition (tremors in my hands) that makes selecting fine points in graphic applications (like Illustrator) difficult unless I zoom in to make selection points larger and more manageable. Note: using Illustrator's magnifying glass feature does not help me, because the select points still stay small when I magnify and image, but using the old screen zoom method made the points larger and easier for me to select. Can anyone help me?
F.Y.I. I also updated my trackball drivers as well, but my trackball preference settings did not change.

Thanks for your input. I hear what you are saying. I have found a couple of applications that worked better with my old Tiger system than with Leopard. When I contacted the developers of these mis-behaving apps, I learned that while Intel machines seem to have no problem with their app's Leopard updates, they do report problems with those of us who still use our old big honking tower PPC's. Maybe that is what I am experiencing here.

Need help with screening possible applicants

Hi, I am have great difficulty determining a candidate that can handle a consulting assignment I am looking to fill.
I was hoping to get a few questions or ways to screen through folks, everyone is saying they can do it but when put infron of client are all failing and I really want to do good work.
I am told that all are failing in one area.
I need someone that knows about UI can integrate OBIEE with another user interface, can customize it etc.
for example one task is to integrate OBEII without OLTP application.
With this is there some questions I can use to make sure applicant can truly do this job.
They only have OBIEE in test lab, and are moving it into production.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks in advance
Randy

customizing the UI is always very hard to budget!! Because you can't know how long you are taking about something.
What I know out experience that it is always very expencive to get EXACTLY what you want.
If you only want to see your housestyle back in OBIEE, then you can do that in a couple of days, but also in a couple of week. Depending on how precize everything has to be...
But if I understand you correctly, you have to hire someone to do the job? Why don't you do it fixed price? Just say, I give you this amount of money, will you do that for me!
If someone don't have the skills then he won't do it! ;)
Hope this is a good idea for you..
When you can do everything from remote, then I maybe know someone in holland who can do the job for you (however it's a concurrent of my, but I don't care about that ;))
best regards,
Remc0

HELP WITH SCREEN-SAVER FILE CONVERSION

Hello;
I have a family member (sister) who does web design and animation on her mac, but she has had a hard time finding a program or utility that would allow her to convert a mac screen saver to a windows screen saver.
She is familiar with the "iScreensaver" program, but that is very expensive, and she was hoping there might be a more basic mac utility to get the job done.
Does anyone here know of a reasonably priced mac program or utility that would allow conversion of a screen saver from mac to windows format? Your help is much appreciated.
Thanks,
Damon
Ps.
She is on an eMac 800 chip machine, running Tiger.

Thanks;
Think my sis was looking for a program that would not expire. But thanks.

Noob Help with inserting frame- is there a better way

Hi,
I am trying to create a frame in dreamweaver mx, but rather
than have a whole frameset, i just want 1 frame. (i dont know if i
am going about it the wring way).
The page is at this link
http://www.cryptomnesian.com/CryptomWebPage.html
I want the large box with the KPA to become the main content
box (this would eb the framed box), so that the mp3 player in the
top would not reload when a link was clicked. The links would
hopefully load up a new box.
Are frames the best way to so for this?? I am a noobie as far
as frames and css goes. Any suggestions or solutions much
appreciated.
Thanks,

Noob Help with While Loop

Sorry for the "Noob"-ness on this one. I am working on a program for class and I am having a problem with a while loop. So I opened a new document and began to code a while loop that is basic to test my while looping skill. Apparrently, I have none. Can anyone tell me why this While Loop will not work:
public class test
     public static void main(String[] args)
     int LoanTerm = 0;
          while (LoanTerm < 3);
               System.out.println (LoanTerm);
               LoanTerm++;
Thanks.
FatherVic

to explain, the ; means that the while loop body is empty, and you will just spin forever testing whether LoanTerm < 3, without doing anything else.

Buying a new Mac Pro, need help with Screen

Hello everyone, Im getting a Mac Pro, and I need a good lcd monitor to go with it. At the same time I would like to be able to have a LCD screen in my room to watch tv. Is it possible to watch tv with the Apple displays, any other displays or should I buy a LCD TV that has capabilities to be connected to a computer. I read a post that suggested a Dell screen to somebody for the purpose of watching tv.
Please any advice would be appreciated.

Elgato <http://www.elgato.com> lets you watch a record TV programs on the Mac's screen.
There are some non-Apple monitors with video, as well as DVI inputs. Some even contain TV tuners and speakers.
Some TVs can be used as computer monitors but there are potential problems:
Low resolution
Overscan (menu bar and dock off the screen)
Computer display not filling screen
Non-square pixels

Noob help with creating a new function module

Hi everyone,
I'm just learning SAP and trying to integrate a WMS system towards it and I'm losing hair over it hehehe
The scenario is that I want to extract Purchase Order Rows details and that's not a hard thing to do since there are multiple BAPIs that can be invoked, for example BAPI_PO_GETDETAIL.
I'm using .NET Connector 3 to talk to SAP.
The problem however is that I want to see how many articles that have already been delivered into the warehouse using BAPI_GOODSMVT_CREATE. There is no information returned when using BAPI_PO_GETDETAIL that specifies that a Purchase Order Row has a quantity of 30 and that 20 has already been delivered.
That information can be retrieved by using BAPI_GOODSMVT_GETITEMS.
The problem with using BAPI_GOODSMVT_GETITEMS is that it returns all of the rows and I am only interrested in retrieveing the rows with quantity for a specific purchase order.
So i decided to create my own BAPI or Function Module (or whatever it's called) that would take a PO_NUMBER and PO_ITEM and return the quantity of already delivered items. For example if one of the PO Rows (10) has 100 items and there has been 2 partial deliveries of 20 and 30. The function should return the value of 50 because it's the sum of 20 and 30.
My code looks like this:
FUNCTION ZBAPI_GOODSMVT_GETITEMS.
""Local Interface:
*" IMPORTING
*"     VALUE(PO_NUMBER) TYPE BSTNR
*"     VALUE(PO_ITEM) TYPE EBELP
*" EXPORTING
*"     REFERENCE(ENTRY_QNT) TYPE ERFMG
SELECT SUM( MENGE ) INTO ENTRY_QNT FROM MSEG
WHERE
EBELN = PO_NUMBER AND
EBELP = PO_ITEM.
ENDFUNCTION.
The problem is that when i try to Activate it it says:
REPORT/PROGRAM statement missing, or program type is INCLUDE.
What am i missing? Is there an easier way to extract already delivered quantities when extracting PO information?

Noobie Help with a FX5600-VTDR128 required, Regarding TV Input

Ok, I am stumped with this one....
I am under the impression I can get Terestrial TV from this card, as some of the drivers allow me to configure channels? and some web sites state it does?? but it doesn't work for me...
I have managed to get a picture from the SVHS connection, into the pc, and I have managed to get an ouput from the pc, to a tv via a Composite connection.....
But I am wanting to get a Normal Arial connection, into the card, I have obtained a cable that has a coaxial at one end and a Composite at the other end, but as I am not too tachnically minded, I think I might be doing something wrong??? Does the card have a onboard Tv Tuner? I had a Haupage (however you spell it) card in a pc a while back, and I connected an aerial to the back, and that worked fine, but this card doesn't have the similar connections?
Can anybody help me, have you succesfully achieved anything......
Oh, I am from London, Uk, if that help anybody.......
Regards.
Paul.

The VIVO function doesn't include a TV tuner so you can't watch TV like that.
If you have a cable reciever box or a VCR you can hook them up to the card with composit/S.Vidio and watch TV that way, but you need to change channels on the reciever/VCR.

Help With Screen

So a few weeks ago I went to check my computer and a small section of the screen was dead and discolored. Slowly it got worse and now half of my screen is black, green, pink etc. I've heard the best way to fix this is to get a monitor but I would rather get it fixed. How can you get it fixed?

Hi
I'll try to help you here,
Troubleshoot the problem, do the hardware tests from BIOS, See if you get the problem in BIOS environment (utilises lowest video settings), Update BIOS & drivers from HP product site.
Go through this document, follow it promptly. If that does not resolve it, you have to Contact HP in your region for repair:
