Oracle Press book gives incorrect information about when you are certiifed

SQL Certified Expert Exam Gudie: ISBN: 978-0-07-161421-4
Page: 12
... and I left (the testing center) a happy and Certified SQL Expert.
THIS IS WRONG.
When you leave the exam you receive a score report indicating you have passed the exam (I beleive subject to review).
BUT
You are not certified until either:
- (1) you receive a success kit from Oracle or
- (2) it is shown on the Oracle Certview Database.
The distinction is really important as until that time you have agreed not to represent yourself as certified.
This should have read something like .....
... and I left (the testing center) happy knowing that in a few weeks time my certification success should be confirmed in the Oracle Certview Database and my Certification success kits should arrive in a few weeks.
I am forever screaming at people on the Oracle Forums not to represent themselves as certified until they get a success kit or see it on Certview and an Oracle Press book goes against this!!!!!!
=:-O
I know this is possibly apparent nit-picking in the case of this certification ... but it isn't. I've never heard of it happening, but the exam score can be revised until its confirmed (not that I've ever seen this happen ... and wold be almost impossible except for cheating). For instance the exam delivery software/configuration could glitch and deliver 1z0-051 questions instead of 1z0-047 invalidating ones result. I know we all know this is impossible but would you be prepared to stake all your worldly goods that this has never happened and will never happen.

They should write a big "THIS IS A DRAMATIZATION" around it!
LOL!

I have installed Elements 13 on my Mac but can't see how to open it. When I click on the disk icon it takes me to an information page that gives no information about opening Elements 13.

I have installed Elements 13 on my Mac but can't see how to open it. When I click on the disk icon on the desktop it takes me to an information page that gives no information about opening Elements 13. How do I open the software so that it can be used?

Unfortunately, when I open applications, adobe photoshop elements 13 folder does not appear in the adobe folder. It appears as a disk on the desktop, only.

Search Bookmarks gives NO information about the FOLDER in which the bookmark is contained!!

A sub folder containing Bookmarks has disappeared. The Search facility finds the individual Bookmarks ... however it gives NO information about the FOLDER in which the bookmarks are contained!! How can I retrieve the lost folder when the Search facility gives NO information about folders? The folder information MUST be part of the Search result, otherwise the Search itself is useless in most cases!

@TXGuy: Many thanks, that was a very helpful addon, and neatly solves my problem!
Also, I found out that the [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/7377/ Go parent folder addon] solves the same problem, although the one you pointed to does it even better.

Incorrect information about computer with serial number?

In the Support section of the Apple website, I get some incorrect information about my MBP when I enter my serial number (to see my warranty status). It says that my computer has a glossy screen, when in fact it doesn't.
What can I do to fix this? I need to have some work done on my computer screen and it would suck getting it back with a glossy screen

go to the genus bar or call applecare

How do you send information about whether you've received and read a message on messages?

Apparently there is a feature where you can either show or hide when you are sending information about whether you have read a message and when you are typing. Where can I access these features?

Hi,
You will see a checkbox for "Send Read Receipts"
When you have the iMessages account as the Listed/highlighted Account.
You can also Auto reply with the Away Message in any other account (Mostly AIM based)
Go to Messages > Preferences > Messages section and tick the box at the bottom "Auto Reply with My Away Message"
Of course you have to set an Away Setting (with or without a Messages) for it to be sent. (it is better though of you choose or create an actual message)

Welcome to Apple forums
We don't know when Apple will implement this in Siri, so wait at least to iOS 6

How recently did you switch? If it's less than 60 days, then Verizon simply reinstates your previous account. The fact that you were on the EDGE plan and mailed the devices back, and they apparently are somewhere in the system, could cause complications, and it might just work out that you just go back on the same plan and they set you up with the same devices. I'm not sure how it will go - but since you are still being billed for the devices...

Is there a location aware wifi option (or app) that enables wifi at a specific location (home) and automatically disables it when you are away from the specified location?

I manually turn off my wifi when leaving home for several reasons:
1. I don't want my wifi to be on and constantly scanning wifi networks while I am away from home due to privacy reasons. Many retail stores and airports are now tracking users based on their smartphone's wifi pings. They can then store your phone's MAC address (the unique identifier of your phone) to determine how often you visit the store and where you go within the store. It's just a matter of time before they match up your phone's MAC address with your credit card/payment info and then to your identity. The only way to subvert this is to turn off your phone's wifi.
2. For security reasons: Wifi access points can track devices that broadcast their wifi signal, even if they don't ever actually connect to the access point's network. These access points can then store your device's details including your phone's MAC address. Once your phone's MAC address is discovered, it can be targeted by a hacker. In addition, there are multiple well known hacker tools that can be used to scan for smartphone wifi signals in order to detect and then hack your iphone. Bottom line: if your wifi is discoverable, then your device is hackable.
3. I believe it would save battery life if the iphone's wifi is not on and constantly scanning for networks all the time.
There are other reasons as well, but the above are my 3 main reasons for asking about this.
The reminders app is location aware - you can set reminders to alert you when you are at a specific location. So, why not provide the option (or an app) to only enable wifi when you are at home - or any other location where you have an authorized or trusted wifi?
As it is right now, the iphone's wifi is broadcasting 24/7 everywhere you go. Not great for privacy & security. When I turn off my wifi, the phone uses my 4G plan for data and GPS for location services... so wifi is not needed at all for data or location services while I am away from home (and no, wifi does not improve location accuracy, that is a fallacy... there is nothing within the wifi protocol that could ever improve location accuracy). But the point is, wifi should have a location aware option. Otherwise, it's just a matter of time before there is a headline story about how not having this feature is a huge security/privacy problem.

Understood. However, the point that I'm trying to make is that it's not the WiFi access point's security that's in question, it's having your phone's WiFi in an always-on mode that's in question. It's simple: if your phone's WiFi is on, then it is both discoverable and hackable... even when it's not connected to a WiFi network or access point. Here's an article about a drone in London that was created to hack smartphone WiFi signals (and hackers have been doing what this drone does for years):
http://money.cnn.com/2014/03/20/technology/security/drone-phone/
The point is that it's not secure to have your phone's WiFi in an always-on mode. It would be better for privacy and security if Apple made WiFi location aware so that it is only enabled when you are at a trusted location (e.g. your home or office). Or, at least give us the option of location aware WiFi so that each user can determine the best mode for their phone:
(1) Always-On (current default - not secure and many privacy issues).
(2) Trusted mode (only on at trusted locations).
(3) Off.

[TIP] Always wipe when you are done :O

Something I came across today, a handful (like a hundred or so) of WiFi Xooms got sent out as refurbs but still had some of the previous owners personal data on them. Sooo, AndroidCentral.com posted an article about always wiping (or hard reset, or factory reset) your phone if you ever sell, throw away, donate, give to a friend, your old phone when you are done with it. Good advice, I would say, no telling where it will end up, or if the company you send it back to won't miss resetting it before sending it out as a refurb. The original article is here: http://www.androidcentral.com/gentle-reminder-erase-your-android-device-getting-rid-it have a read don't forget the SD card and, always wipe when you are done!

I wish the phones didn't have those water damage stickers on them. I'd use a bidet.

HT1461 For Boot Camp, if you save a file when you are on the Windows side, when you return to the Mac side, can you see the file or can it only be "seen" on the operating side you create it in?

For Boot Camp, if you save a file when you are on the Windows side, when you return to the Mac side, can you see the file or can it only be "seen" on the operating side you create it in?

Why don't you (generic most every post lacks critical details) be clear and say you never used Mac OS etc.
But, I did try to anticipate and give you what you needed.
Excel is one of those rare programs that, if they are extremely large complex spreadsheets still tend to run better under Office for Windows.
A VM won't do for that but it does make it easier to transition. As in: install Windows natively, then use VMware Fusion or Parallels to attach to the partition and OS. That way you can run Windows as Guest OS VM under Mac; and still run Windows natively dual-boot when needed.
The word "see" was not what you wanted, was it? really? you want to open and make changes and keep it on Windows side rather than Save As or copy to Mac
You use Windows and don't know it has NTFS (NT FileSystem)?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NTFS
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hierarchical_File_System (HFS) native file system used by Apple
And there is much more UEFI style "bios" and other things I suppose.
Great thing about Google and encyclopedias or dictionary, you can look up what you don't know.

When you are pulling music from a hard drive and it says music can not be found, is there a way to stop it from doing that every time I play music from my computer? It used to find all music now it only finds 1 song at a time

When pulling music from a harddrive and it say music can not be found, is there a way to stop this from happening every time I play music on my computer? It used to find all music when serching for song but now it only finds 1 at a time. I have over 2000 songs so I can't go through this every time.

1) However I do not want to move my itunes Music onto the flash drive, only my Movies, and want to keep my music on my hard drive.
Is this possible?
Yes
2) Do the MacBook Air's not have a separate program other than itunes that can play movies? If so, is there a program I can get to solve this problem? I went onto the App Store to see if there was something I could download, but all the apps were for creating DVD's, not simply playing them.
If you can play the movies in iTunes, you should be able to open the movie files using Quicktime, which should already be on your system. If you have already transferred the files to your flash drive, open the flash drive in Finder, and hold control when you click on the movie file (or right click if you have the enabled) and select Open With Quicktime Player. This should play the movie directly from the flash drive.
If you want to set all .m4v files to open with Quicktime by just double clicking on the file, you can follow the steps here: http://www.tech-recipes.com/rx/2573/os_x_how_to_change_default_application_to_op en_file_type/
3) If 1. & 2. questions are solvable, will it then be safe to delete the movies from my itunes?
You can move the TV shows to your flash drive by dragging them from the iTunes window to your flash drive in Finder or the flash drive icon on the desktop. When you are sure everything is transferred over to your external device, you can delete the movie from iTunes. I recommend playing the videos from the flash drive first before deleting them in iTunes.
To delete the videos from iTunes, you can highlight them and press the delete key on your keyboard. In the next prompt, you would want to move it to the trash so that it is deleted from your internal hard drive.
I hope that helps!

Is anyone else having trouble seeing their screens when you are outside?

Is anyone else having trouble seeing their screens when you are outside?

When is sunlight, absolutely. Not a problem with the Droid Ultra but rather all phones.
You ever see the commercial about the Nook devices. The have a special screen to reduce glare allowing you to see your screen in sunlight.
As far as I know, companies have not implemented this on anycell phone.
There are after market anti-glare screen protectors
Check Amazon or eBay, they should be relatively inexpensive.
Good Luck
