Pc sync does not handle foreign characters in cont...

i have lots of contacts with accents or umlauts in their names. After synching with my pc's contact book however, those names will show up twice or up to six times in my phone contact list. This also happens with any other details such as the street address etc..
Any ideas?

Flash upload form does not recognize foreign characters

i have a flash form which uploads multimedia files and submit
it to a java back-end along with other form fields. works for
english characters but when it submits foreign characters such as
chinese or spanish, the worlds are garbled on the other side. it
seems like flash default is not set to utf-8, has anyone ever had
seen this or had this problem before???

Thanks for the link. It didn't solve the issue on my mother in law's desktop, but it did contain a link to another solution for desktops (and for laptops not helped by the link you provided).
The link reads: "If you don't have a PC laptop or the steps above did not help, see this document for more information."
Essentially, putting the iPod into disc mode caused it to be recognized by XP and all was well.
Anyway, your help is much appreciated as it's particularly difficult for me to work in the Windows enviroment since I so rarely do it.

Dynamic Text Field is not displaying foreign characters... HELP!

I have a dynamic text field that is not displaying foreign characters properly. They appear as boxes.
Here's what I've tried.
Under properties for the text field, I clicked on the embed characters button. In there, I pasted all the special characters I would need and clicked okay. Shouldn't this be enough for the text to display properly? What am I missing? Please help...

More info: I'm noticing that in the actual dynamic text field in my .FLA file, if I type a foreign character like é, it pops up as a block. My family font is set to New Caledonia... is it possible that New Caledonia doesn't have those particular glyphs? The thing that doesn't make sense to me though is, last year when I made this card, it worked fine with New Caledonia... Any help is greatly appreciated!!

User Profile Incremental Sync does not views changes in profiles.

User Profile Incremental Sync does not views changes in profiles. I make full sync - all ok. then I change the phone number for example, and then start incremental sync and nothing moves to AD.
All the stages of FIM sync just state 0 records to process. Looks like it does not see the changes
1.profile property is set up to sync with AD attribute (with EXPORT).
2.no errors in Windows logs or FIM UI client, nor in sharepoint UI
3. sharepoint server 2010 SP1, "CU June 2012" 14.0.6123.5002
4. I have just reprovisioned sync service, set up AD connections and property-attribute relations. before
there was this problem http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/cb2b8aeb-d1b6-49a6-a788-2491ca45308a/critical-error-6398-userprofileimportjob-problem-profile-sync-malfunction?forum=sharepointadminhttp://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/cb2b8aeb-d1b6-49a6-a788-2491ca45308a/critical-error-6398-userprofileimportjob-problem-profile-sync-malfunction?forum=sharepointadmin,
which I resolved by clearing timer service cache.
Help with advice, urls or solurions please..

Hi VlH,
According to your description, the issue can be caused by the Profile or Profile Values table.
You can check the event log and ULS log to see detail error message.
To check event log, click the Start button and type “Event Viewer” in the Search box.
For SharePoint 2013, by default, ULS log is at
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\15\LOGS
For your issue you can refer to the similar thread:
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/sharepoint/en-US/bc3cd2ff-dc12-4223-a80b-e4cae616e861/user-profile-sync-doesnt-update-the-profiles-from-ad?forum=sharepointadminlegacy

Syncronizing my 3gs with itunes the sync does not finish because itunes allways crash and stuck i made some troubleshoots like reinstall again but nothing and my itunes is update and the system is windows vista home premium.Please help me...

Syncronizing my 3gs with itunes the sync does not finish because itunes always crash and stuck and i can not sync my device, i dont no whats wrong because the itunes even can not acess itunes store, still loading waiting for itunes store and nothing.I tryed reinstall itunes but just waste of time.
My itunes is update, iphone 3gs 4.3.4, system is windows vista home premium.
Please help me.

I also have the Mcaffe security centre so on the face of it we have very similar situations and I had not problems.
You asked what I meant about saving the installer on your PC.
When you go to the iTunes download page:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
And click on download, you should be offered the choice of running the installer or saving it. You need to click on save and then choose a folder on you PC where you want it saved. But I think you already did that.
After the installer file - iTunessetup.exe - is save on your computer, you double click on it to run it.
It's very odd that the installer fails at different stages. usually when the installation fails, it is at a specific stage and usually generates an error message.
I am afraid I am mystified. Have you had any other problems with your PC which might suggest a general problem not specific to iTunes?
The only other suggestion I have is to download a fresh copy of the installer - in case it got corrupted. You could also try using "run as administrator" to run the installer. It should be an option if you right click on the installer file.
The other thing it might be worth trying is to install it from another account, but you would need to create another administrator account if you don't a;ready have one. Or if you have another account that is not an admin account, you can temporarily promote it from the control panel>>User accounts.

Sync does not sync my passwords - EVER

i started using sync now since foxmarks went down and have a few observations:
bookmarks sync - that feature is very, very slow. sync happens in minutes and sometimes not complete and I have to manual start sync numerous times until everything has been syncd
passwords sync - does not happen, EVER, none of my passwords are syncd.
that addon is not very good, I can't even make backups or see the contents of my sync folder online. There should be a way to save all your data so you can import it when you reinstall. having to rely on a slow and buggy sync is not good.

1. Xmarks replaced Foxmarks a few years ago, when they added other browsers beyond Firefox to their service. Xmarks hasn't shut down yet, that was planned for early January 2011. That may not even happen - UPDATE: Xmarks Sync NOT Dead Yet - http://www.xmarks.com/about/shutdown
 
2. In Sync preferences there are 5 items to select for what type of data is sync'd. '''Firefox will: Sync everything''' is the default setting. Any chance you changed a setting there? 
3. "not very good" - in your opinion. Sync wasn't created to mimic other services, like Xmarks. The developers included the features that they think are important and are trying to keep it uncomplicated as they can. Being able to view your data on the Sync server would have greatly complicated the encryption of your data and the retrieval of that data from the server. Unlike Xmarks, your Firefox Sync data is encrypted as it leaves your PC and then unencrypted when it is downloaded to Firefox or Firefox Home on another device. Your "Sync Key" is only good in Firefox, so your data can only be read in Firefox - no one else has access to your data in an unencrypted format. 
4. To recover your data from the Sync server, you either install the Sync extension on Firefox 3.6 or install Firefox 4 which includes Sync (once it is released) and you setup your account information on the new installation. You then sync the new installation with the data that is on the server. 
5. As far as speed of the sync goes, while the initial sync might take 30 to 45 minutes, subsequent syncing is done very quickly depending upon the differences in your data between the device and the server.

Sync does not work on my mobile

How do I resolve this all my passwords, history and bookmarks are gone.

Ah! You are still using the old sync account. (deprecated) will be next to the Firefox Sync account. Try the new one :-) [[How to update to the new Firefox Sync]]

When I try to sync my iPod iCal with my MBP iCal via WiFi I get a message saying "Safari Downloading Safe Browsing Data" but I am connected to a local network and thus the syncing does not complete"

When I try to sync my iPod iCal with my MBP (OS 10.7) iCal via iTunes and WiFi I get a message saying "Safari Downloading Safe Browsing Data" but I am connected to a local network and thus the syncing does not complete because the downloading never completes because I am not connected to the internet.
Why does syncing iCal need Safari Safe Browsing Data? How can I turn this off?

See:
iTunes 10.5 and later: Troubleshooting iTunes Wi-Fi Syncing
"Safari Downloading Safe Browsing Data" is just some data that is synce with the computer. To turn off on the Mac go to System Preferencs>iCloud and turn off Safari

ITunes 10 does not recognize Greek characters

Hello,
When I import Greek songs with greek characters iTunes does not recognize the characters. The song is displayed with greeklish as shown in the printscreen below (don't know how), but the album not. Sometimes the title is also displayed that way.
Any suggestions?

Download and install *Tag Converter* application from isquare's webpage-> http://isquare.gr Click the Downloads image link and you will be asked to fill in a mailform and register first (it's free). Then you will be redirected to the downloads page. I also installed the "Proofing Tools" from the same list and GRupdate 6.3. *Tag Converter corrects all Greek characters in iTunes. Very useful!*

Sync does not work- multiple desktop FF

Sync does not allow adding more than one DESKTOP FF in order to sync multiple desktop FF (e.g: work, home, & friends , etc..)
I do not like to use an add-on.

Sync doesn't care about the type of device (desktop vs laptop vs phone) when trying to add a new device to a Sync account. Please explain what you want to do with Sync with a little more detail.

Sync does not come up in my options in Windows 7 so I can't set up sync

I am using version 3.6.28 in Windows 7. I go to Tools/Options and sync is not one of the options. Everything else shown in the tutorial comes up, but sync does not. Any suggestions of how to set up sync on my computer?

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).

Bravia Sync does not work with Sony Bravia XBR-55X900B and BDV-N8100W Bluray 3D Home Theatre System.

Bravia Sync does not function with my Sony Bravia XBR-55X900B and Sony BDV-N8100W Bluray 3D Home Theatre System. The Sony Bravia XBR-55X900B does not list the Sony BDV-N8100W on the Bravia Sync device list. Does anyone have an explanation or solution for this?

Please use a component cable. With either RCA or optical for audio. That is the quickest fix. For current HDMI issues.
1.7 upgrade has been known to fix most of the HDMI issues. Verizon is working diligently to roll out img 1.7.

Firefox Sync does not update automatically when I add a new bookmark.

I use one desktop and one notebook at the same time. Firefox Sync does not update bookmarks between my desktop and notebook when I add a new bookmark from one device or the other. Firefox Sync only updates when I manually sync my data from each device. When I used Google Chrome, the Sync feature updated my bookmarks almost instantly. Is there any way I can make Firefox automatically sync whenever I update my bookmark?

Your imported bookmarks from IE should all be in one folder named "From Internet Explorer". The imported Bookmarks are kept separate for easier identification by the user. You can move them to other folders outside of that folder if you wish; you can also delete any duplicates that you may have placed into Firefox Bookmarks/folders before the import.
