Not fair, not fair!  It's not fair!

Mark (Finnern) !!!!! -
You've scheduled my session in the same slot as Ed's.
But I'm going to Ed's!!!
Anyone who's not going either thinks he/she knows more than Ed (doubtful) or is from the "dark side" (Java-side).
So I guess I won't be giving my session after all.
Hmmm ... maybe that's what you intended ...
Do I detect the fine hand of Craig Cmehil in here somewhere ?????
Just kidding, Craig ... just kidding.
Seriously, though -  please cancel my session cause I ain't missin' Ed's.

Mark -
I'm really sorry you misinterpreted the tone of my post ... I'm not frustrated or angry or even annoyed or anything negative like that.  To the contrary, I think it's kind of funny and no big deal at all.
Here's why.
There are only two reasons for anyone to attend my session:
i) they're interested in the issue of whether SAP is going to eventually force folks to call applets at the portal level, because it's too much of a support nuisance for SAP to have to tell people that they're using a WDA iframe unsafely (see my long conversations with Thomas about this in various theads);
ii) they agree with my basic premise that SAP should market NW7 as a stand-alone IDE without any SAP applications at all.
The number of folks in (ii) is vanishingly small, so no loss there if I dont' give the session.
And as far as is concerned, eventually some one in MM is going to wake up and say:
"Hey, I'd like a WDA application that presents a BOM tree and when I double click a component in the tree, it triggers an external app that lets me rotate a 3-D view of the component (not just display a "static" Documentum or Maximo picture, or a "static" picture that's a static attachment in a native content server.)"
And when that happens, folks will realize the point of the session I had in mind, so there's no loss on that side either.
Really - I mean it.  I wasn't being "pissy" at all - in fact, I found the whole thing kind of funny. 
To me, the Jung/Heilman/McWeeney/Hermann sessions are probably one of the main reasons for going to all of Tech Ed ... I just wish they had been scheduled in a regular track on Tues, Wed, or Thurs.

  • Aperture 3 Not perfect but fairly good so far

    My experience so far... Ordered A3 and downloaded trial whilst I waited. Had similar issues that many have had with disk size messages so looked for tips. Read many horror stories here so became very nervous. Here is what I did. Copied my library (managed-mostly RAW) containing around 26k images on 220gb over to another drive. (4th internal 1TB). My main library is supported by two vaults normally on separate drives. I did not want to rely on a vault. If things went wrong I intended to ditch A3, and go back to A2 with my library. I repaired and rebuilt the database-took a few minutes. I deleted the previews in my library as I read they could be troublesome-not sure. I repaired permissions. On install I unchecked faces and turned off preview in prefs. I checked for updates-did that. (can't remember, I think I repaired permissions again-old habit. I got the disk space warning and then became stuck. A3 would not launch, neither would A2. I hit option and opened Aperture to choose my other back up on a 75% free drive. In effect A3 would now be working for this. Presto. The upgrade began and I prepared to leave my Mac for a day to work. Less than two hours later it was done! Note I have not converted each image to RAW 3 conversion and am not sure if that is what takes the time but frankly I don't see the point. Just hit 'reprocess' when you want to work on an image-it takes but a second.
    Everything seems fairly speedy, no faster than A2 I don't think but not slower. I am only one day in so time will tell. I am still prepared to revert to A2 if it drives me crazy. I remember last year a buggy RAW update for A2 plagued us for weeks. Aperture was unusable for me until I reverted to the previous RAW update.
    I have noticed the odd glitch when I quick preview an image. Blacked out in parts-this remedies when I click another image and try again. Also the quick preview 'light' remains lit. I need to look at the adjustments panel to see if the quick preview is actually on or off. Strangely my images render on screen in a second without quick preview but I suspect a bug. Running in 32 bit as plug ins are only 32 bit. Will test if A3 behaves better in 64 bit. Frankly, at the moment I just want it to be stable and work. I updated for the brushes- not faces, not places, not speed. My main concern is stability and safeguard of my library. I have yet to use one of my vaults for Aperture #. Both are still waiting for my return to A2. I am taking my time.
    My system has shown a couple of anomalies here and there but nothing serious and nothing I can say is due to Aperture. Aperture has crashed once and locked once, both requiring a restart. Repaired permissions and dust has settled. Overall pretty good so far. Not super smooth but not a disaster, far from it. My apologies for rambling but just felt the need to share my experience in the hope that something might help somebody.
    Cheers.

    Hi,
    I have the same problem. I was to the Apple Shop and ask the Apple Retail Peoples, but nobody can give me an answer.

  • Sony, it's not fair! Sony is selling unlocked Z3 starting from today!

    While we are locked and afraid of unlocking our bootloaders for decreasing camera quality ( meaning no root ), Sony has started selling unlocked Z3 from today!!
    How about us with locked bootloaders? It's not fair!
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    On several markets, there are phones that are sold and not locked to an operator. But they may have a customized software which in some case can deny the boot loader from being unlocked. No phones that are sold have an unlocked boot loader from the start, this is something that you need to do on your own.

  • I am unable to use my external CD player. I am told that the player is being used by another application, and that is not true. I have quit everything and restarted. I've unplugged the unit. I have a fairly new mac mini 10.8. What can I do?

    I am unable to use my external CD player. I have a fairly new mac mini 10.8. I am told that the player is being used by another application, but it's not true. I've forced everything to quit and restarted. I've even unplugged the unit and let it rest. I've turned off and unplugged the mac too. I cannot make a CD. Why?

    I misread your message. I thought it said I did not have burn support with the Samsung hardware.
    When the CD goes in it says You inserted a bland CD. choose an action from the popup menu or click ignore
    open finder
    open itunes
    open disk utility
    make this action the default
    eject         ignore           ok
    However, when I am making CDs. I am in itunes. That is where my recordings areI haven't tried to do it from this vantage point.
    I don't know how to make a screen shot on a mac.
    I go to my playlist and click on the little gear icon at the bottom left and I leave things as they are - preferred speed - maximum. I leave it on audio CD - and then I select BURN.
    When I tried this the other day, I could not get it to burn, no matter how hard I tried - everything I could think of, using a different CD, force quitting everything I was not using, restarting the computer, unplugging the CD hardware and plugging it back in after a little while, nothing worked. I got that message that said my player was being used by another application every time I tried to make the CD.  This took over an hour. I don't know of another way to make a CD on the mac; I was not using another program or application. Now it seems to be working fine. I am burning another copy of something I gave away.
    I wish I knew what caused this. It was a real problem Saturday morning.

  • Lifetime affiliate commissions is not fair!

    Hello everyone  I recently put together an affiliate program for my website www.hashems.com  I went through all the trouble of having some custom programming done so that customers can actually link to one product and not just a catalog.   So now i run into a different problem.... From what I understand the cookies for affiliate referrals last for one year. Not only do they last a year but if a customer is referred to my site and make another purchase within the year, the cookies will extend for another year.   So if a customer places one or more order per year, I will be paying commission to that affiliate member for the life of that customer thats making the purchases.  That is not fair. Is there a way to limit cookie expiration dates to lets say 90 days or six months even?

    Actually something does seem to be screwy here.
    Why is it that I can have 2 seperate users subscribed to 2 seperate Affilate Programs yet the returned ID is the same when they log in?

  • Bought the Galaxy S4 at Full Price, But Not Eligible for the $50.00 Rebate Card. Sound Fair?

    Recently bought the Galaxy S4 for the full retail price and afterward come to find out the rebate offer of $50.00 is only good for subsidized phone purchases. How is this fair when I paid full freight? The offer should have been for either type purchase.
    What gives, Verizon? Only care about getting those 2 year contracts extended???

    I just looked, the rebate is clearly posted for 2 yr contracts only.
    If you switch the screen to Month to Month the rebate is gone.
    But even on the two year contract screen this is shown.
    Full Retail Price $649.99
    2-Year Contract  $249.99
    Online Discount -$50.00
    PRICE with 2-Year contract  $199.99
    You are not going to be able to keep your unlimited data (if that is why you purchased at full price) if you receive any discount.

  • My printer is a fairly new all-in-one Brother MFC-7860 DW. It is not listed in the iPad AirPrint printers. Can I get it to work with my new iPad2?

    My printer is a fairly new all-in-one Brother MFC-7860 DW. It is not listed in the iPad AirPrint printers. Can I get it to work with my new iPad2?

    If it's not an Airprint enabled printer, you can not natively through your iPad.  BUT, there are apps you can purchase in the App Store, like Print Central ($9), which is what I use myself and works well for my needs.

  • This is not fair

    Hello everyone. I live in turkey and Im a student at university. 10 days ago my aunt went to US and she bought a gift to me from there. that was a macbook air mc505. everything was okay but then I saw black letter and there is writing macbook air mc505 price: $2.000 then I checked it where she bought this macbook air, there is international electronics superstore. Now I want to ask a question, is this fair? this model should be $999 or a bit more but shouldnt be $2.000, am I right?
    I'm waiting an answer from Apple Family. If you need a document, I can send scan this black letter then I can send you.
    Please I'm waiting.
    Can Başcı

    Sorry, I wish I could be of help, but I cannot call long distance (I live a couple of thousand miles from Florida) to a store in Miami to ask about a price for you. You'll need to call them yourself.
    Please note that from what I can tell, International Electronics Superstore is not an authorized Apple dealer, so they can charge whatever prices they wish and there's nothing Apple can do about it. International Electronics Superstore also has a very bad rating with the Better Business Bureau, so it appears that other customers have also had problems with them.
    Anyway, any problems with that store and their pricing will have to be worked out directly between you (or your aunt) and that store.
    Regards.

  • Je suis incapable d'ouvrir l'application "Notes". Quoi faire?

    J'ai écrit des notes super importante dans l'application que Apple me donne à la base appelé "Notes" . J'ai écrit une dizaines de notes et plus tard j'en ai supprimé une et l'applation à subitement fermé et je ne suis plus capable d'y accéder j'essaye le double-clic et il m'apparaît la note que j'avais supprimé mais je ne suis quand même pas en mesure d'ouvrir l'application. J'ai aussi essayé de vider ma batterie puis la recharger mais sans succès. Je ne sais plus quoi faire et j'en ai besoin au plus vite ! Quoi faire?

    Non, il faut faire le sleep/wake (coin en haut à droite) et le home en même temps pour faire le reset.
    Pour fermer les applications ouvertes, il faut double presser sur le bouton home (donc le rond en bas au milieu) et ensuite tu restes presser sur une des icones qui sont apparues en bas, jusqu'à ce qu'elle bouge. Là tu appuies sur tous les signes "sens interdit". Ca va quitter toutes les applications.
    Le redémarrage ne quitte pas spécialement les applications.

    Hi,
    After I purchased snoopy's street fairs' exclusive offer on 19th July12, I did not receive any snoopy coins till now(Suppose to have 150 coins on the game for $1.99). And APPLE charged me $1.00 on 19th, and charged $1.99 again on 21th July12, totally charged me $2.99, but still haven't recieved any snoopy coins in the game, it sounds unreasonable.
    thank you

    My daughter has had her Razr for about 9 months now.  About two weeks ago she picked up her phone in the morning on her way to school when she noticed two cracks, both starting at the camera lens. One goes completely to the bottom and the other goes sharply to the side. She has never dropped it and me and my husband went over it with a fine tooth comb. We looked under a magnifying glass and could no find any reason for the glass to crack. Not one ding, scratch or bang. Our daughter really takes good care of her stuff, but we still wanted to make sure before we sent it in for repairs. Well we did and we got a reply from Motorola with a picture of the cracks saying this was customer abuse and that it is not covered under warranty. Even though they did not find any physical damage to back it up. Well I e-mailed them back and told them I did a little research and found pages of people having the same problems. Well I did not hear from them until I received a notice from Fed Ex that they were sending the phone back. NOT FIXED!!! I went to look up why and guess what there is no case open any more for the phone. It has been wiped clean. I put in the RMA # it comes back not found, I put in the ID #, the SN# and all comes back not found. Yet a day earlier all the info was there. I know there is a lot more people like me and all of you, but they just don't want to be bothered so they pay to have it fix, just to have it do it again. Unless they have found the problem and only fixing it on a customer pay only set up. I am furious and will not be recommending this phone to anyone. And to think I was considering this phone for my next up grade! NOT!!!!

  • J'essaie d'importer les notes de mon Iphone sur mon Mac Book Pro?? comment faire??

    J'aimerais pouvoir importer les notes et les mets contacts téléphonique de mon i phone 5. Je me demande si je dois avoir la même adresse i cloud pour faciliter le contact? Merci de me répondre!

    Bonjour ..
    1-Je voudrais avoir mes apps achetees sur mon iphone 4gs, aussi sur mon mac book pro.
    Las aplicaciones que se ejecutan en el iPhone no se puede ejecutar en Mac OS X. Se trata de dos Sytems operativos diferentes.
    2-Je voudrais pouvoir controler idealemente mes depenses de argent pour les achats sur appstore sur mon iphone mais je ne trouve pas comment le faire car il me montra la liste des app grauites et payant sans distinction.
    Autant que je sache, il n'y a pas de applications disponibles pour le faire.
    Apres j ai trouve un petit programe que c est appel App Store Expenses Monitor mais je n arrive pas a le faire marcher.
    Ce soft est conçu pour les achats iTunes seulement. Pas pour le Mac App Store pour le Mac OS X.
    La meilleure façon de garder trace de vos dépenses et iTunes Mac App Store est de vérifier l'historique des paiements sur une base opportune.
    Lancez iTunes. Sélectionnez iTunes Store dans la liste des sources sur la gauche, puis cliquez sur Se connecter sur le côté droit de la fenêtre iTunes.
    Dans la fenêtre Informations sur le compte cliquez sur Afficher tout pour le droit de l'historique des achats.

  • Comment faire une numérotation continue des notes de bas de pages (inD CS6)?

    Bonjour à tous,
    Mon document (livre) indesign comporte 5 parties et beaucoup de notes de bas de page.
    J'aimerai pouvoir numéroter les notes en continue pour que la numérotation ne recommence pas à [1] à chaque changement de partie.
    Comment faire? J'ai déjà exploré toutes les options du menu "options des notes de bas de page"
    Milles mercis si vous pouvez trouver une solution à ce problême !

    Pour que le chainon soit visible au survol de l'article 2, il faut que le premier bloc de texte de l'article 2 soit sélectionné (en faisant Cmd Clic sur ce bloc)
    Par exemple ici :
    • Article 1 en bleu et Article 2 en rouge
    • En cliquant sur le carré encerclé avec l'outil de sélection, le pointeur de texte chargé apparaît.
    • Je sélectionne maintenant le premier bloc de texte de l'article 2 en maintenant Cmd enfoncé (pour accéder à l'outil de sélection temporaire et conserver mon texte chargé)
    • Le pointeur de texte chargé est maintenant visible au survol du bloc de texte sélectionné
    • Je clique pour lier les 2 articles
    ATTENTION, le texte de l'article 2 va maintenant continuer juste à la fin de l'article 1. Pour conserver sa position, il faut ajouter un saut de bloc à la fin de la première partie depuis le menu Texte > Insérer un caractère de saut
