Playbook Orders Canceled, does RIM know about this?

I have seen several posts about discounted playbook orders canceled on shop.Blackberry.com or with extremely long wait times to receive the merchandise. Do the head executives and board of trustees of RIM know about this problem? I can't imagine that
they could given the magnitude of this problem, does RIM still love us as much as we love them? Certainly doesn't
seem so! I've been a Blackberry user for a long time and I planned to upgrade my Bold 9700 to a Torch 9810 because of this PB deal. If RIM doesn't right the ship I don't know how long I could continue to support/advocate them. My contract is up Feb 2012 and I certainly hope by then they will have all their ducks in a row. With that said I am willing to wait for my Playbook given it is one hell of a deal and it's Christmas time, big companies such as RIM always get inundated with massive orders. So I propose this... Given RIM glorious record in the past I say we give them a chance to make things right! What do you say?

Yea, there's a whole long thread here on the issue with shopblackberry.com backorders with statements from the CIO of that company about what they are doing ongoing to right their problem.
Does RIM know? I dunno. It's a big mess regardless, that certainly deserves some attention.

  • I have a related but different problem... I prefer that the photos/events on my iPhone and iPad be in "date created" order. Does anyone know if this is possible? Apple...please give us some options.

    This response is a little late as I just read about your problem. I have a 2012 Dodge Charger and a 2012 Chrysler Town and Country and both worked flawlessly with the iPhone 5s my wife and I had. However, we just upgraded to the iPhone 6 and Uconnect will receive calls but you cannot answer them. You can callout successfully, however. the annoyance being the inability to answer incoming calls in the HandsFree mode.

  • Management workstation question - how does AD know about this?

    We are trying to setup MBAM 2.5 for the first time. The test client isn't running bitlocker automatically like we hoped.
    We copied the policy templates to a pc and configured the GPO settings.  I don't understand how AD is supposed to know about this "management workstation"?  What are we missing in the documentation? 
    I am thinking this is the step that is keeping it from working.  At least one of the steps...
    Thanks.

    The GPO settings can be applied either from AD or from the management workstation.  The 2.5 docs still say that a management workstation is required.
    I think this might not be the case with MBAM 2.5.  We were able to get it working, and I'm sure our clients are not accessing the management workstation.
    Apparently the documentation needs to be updated.

  • Does anyone know about this user interface?

    I just came across a few videos on Youtube showing a kind of LabVIEW user interface. I think there should exist a sort of template project for this, because I have seen more than one person using this. Does any one know where can I find it?

    It sure would have been nice if you posted a link to the youtube video instead of a screen shot of it.
    Since I can't see how it works I will go based on how it looks.  It appears to be a modified version of this GUI inspired by Ubuntu.

  • My I Pod touch....after charging it...asked me for a pass code..I have owned it for 4 years now...I have never set up a Password to turn it on...suddenly It is asking me for one...does anyone know about this problem?...now It is disabled...please help

    Cannot open my Ipod touch...never set it up to open with a password...suddenly it is asking for one...Now it is disabled,can anyone help...??

    iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212
    If you cannot remember the passcode, you will need to restore your device using the computer with which you last synced it. This allows you to reset your passcode and resync the data from the device (or restore from a backup). If you restore on a different computer that was never synced with the device, you will be able to unlock the device for use and remove the passcode, but your data will not be present. Refer to Updating and restoring iPhone, iPad and iPod touch software.

  • Does someone knows about this tool on LMS 3.2?

    I am quoting from the LMS 3.2 Deployment Guide:
    What’s New: Generic Device Support in RME
    Day one device support for network management applications is a continuing challenge. As new hardware platforms
    come to market, device support may be lagging. The CiscoWorks Incremental Device Update team announces
    availability of a new "automated" update tool, providing device support for inventory and configuration functionality
    within Resource Manager Essentials. This tool allows customers to quickly get support for new hardware platforms
    where complete device package support through the Incremental Device Update program has not yet been
    delivered. This new tool can be downloaded from
    http://www.cisco.com/cgi-bin/tablebuild.pl/cw2000-rme andinstalled on the LMS 3.01, 3.1, and 3.2 code base. The following features are enabled for devices using the
    automated update tool:
    Device Management in RME:The Device Manageability Status Report provides details as to whether the device is officially supported or
    managed using automatic IDU.
    Inventory Management in RME:
    ◦System-, port-, memory-, Flash-, and bridge-related information will be queried using Entity or the OCCM
    MIB.
    ◦Support for CDA will be provided.

    Config Management in RME:
    ◦Sync archive using CLI and TFTP protocols
    ◦Ad-hoc template in NetConfig deployment
    ◦Partial NetShow if MDF association is available
    ◦Raw mode in version summary and version tree
    ◦Partial out-of-sync summary and compare configuration
    ◦Config Editor support for editing in raw mode only
    An announcement regarding similar support capability in Campus Manager and Device Fault Manager will be sent
    when it becomes available.

    You can go to Common Services > Software Center > Device Update, click the the RME link, and search for GenericDev.  If you find it, then you have the package installed.  For any device which has a sysObjectID which RME doesn't recognize with a specific package, this package will be tried instead.
    If you find that the package is not already installed, perform a device update for RME, and download and install all available device packages.

  • Does anyone know about this !!!!!!

    hi all,
    I am using Tomcat 4.0 and wanted to setup a database connection pool to a oracle database server. I am able to configure a datasource and get the connection using the web.xml (resource-ref) and server.xml (ResourceParam) tags.
    My questions are
    1. Does tomcat provide a connection pool impl. or is it left to the database driver provider to do that???
    2. if i put a ejb-ref entry in the web.xml how can i specify the ResourceParam entries in the server.xml so that i can point to a weblogic or jboss app server running on a different machine.
    regards,
    venky

    I am using Tomcat 4.0 and wanted to setup a database connection pool to a oracle database
    server. I am able to configure a datasource and get the connection using the web.xml
    (resource-ref) and server.xml (ResourceParam) tags.I never done that (using web.xml & server.xml to define the DB), however I'm used to work with oracle connection pool.
    Here's an example (I'm using the latest JDBC drivers of Oracle available on the OTN) :
    public static class DbConnectionPool {
      private static OracleConnectionCacheImpl myConnectionPool;
      private static OracleConnectionPoolDataSource myDataSource;
      public void initConnectionPool(){
        try{
          //Create & configure datasource
          myDataSource = new OracleConnectionPoolDataSource();
          myDataSource.setDriverType("thin");
          myDataSource.setNetworkProtocol("tcp");
          myDataSource.setServerName  ("hostname or ip address");
          myDataSource.setDatabaseName("oracle instance");
          myDataSource.setPortNumber  ("1521 is the installation default");
          myDataSource.setUser        ("scott");
          myDataSource.setPassword    ("tyger");
          //Create & configure pool
          myConnectionPool = new OracleConnectionCacheImpl(myDataSource);
          myConnectionPool.setMaxLimit(20);
          myConnectionPool.setMinLimit(2);
          myConnectionPool.setCacheScheme(OracleConnectionCacheImpl.DYNAMIC_SCHEME);
        }catch (Throwable ex){
          log.error("initConnectionPool() - Exception catched:",ex);
      public OracleConnection getDatabaseConnection(){
        try{
          return myConnectionPool.getConnection();
        }catch (Throwable ex){
          return null;
      public void closeDatabaseConnection(OracleConnection connection){
        try{
          connection.close();
        }catch (Throwable ex){
          log.error("getDatabaseConnection() - Exception catched: " , ex);

  • HI my name is Luca. I have heard about workshops that apple stores are offering on LOGIC PRO X. I live in london but unfortunately nobody offers such workshop anymore. Does anyone know about this?

    Hi
    my name is Luca, I live in London.
    Is there any workshop I can book for Logic Pro X?
    Has Apple stopped to offer such workshops? It doesn tm appear to be on their list anymore..
    Where can I find it? Who should I contact?
    The store regent street referred me on their online workshop list being unaware that the logic workshop doesn t appear there.......mmm

    Apple Stores are allowed to offer these workshops if and when they can. Some of them do, but not all of them.
    The One To One program is excellent if you are looking to get trained on Logic at the Apple Store.

    nowadays have many user have problem with update to ios7 and need active with apple id maybe in the future in order escape from these problems must be stop use these products else. Because of simple user don't know about this technology and sometime just hear from other user that it 's difficult to use then force they change phone that use to handle to another.

    It is a feature to discourage the theft of iPhones by making them useless if resold. It's not going anywhere. It's simple: just don't buy a phone until you make sure that the activation lock has been disabled.

  • Apple Campus Rep - does anyone know about doing this in Canada?

    Hi Guys,
    I was looking on the American Apple website and noticed the opportunity for students to be a "apple campus rep'. I couldn't find this on the Canadian website. Does anyone know if this is available in Canada?
    Any info would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Brandon

    HI Brandon,
    I looked on Google without any results except the American site for this. Very bottom right side of the page http://store.apple.com/ca click where it says Contact Us.
    Also, check Macintosh User Groups. They might be able to answer your question. http://appleusergroups.com/locator/find/locate.cgi?country=4

  • Does Apple know about bug in Timer that shows minutes but counts down seconds?

    I have a couple of times changed my timer from a few minutes down past zero to 59 or so to time out about an hour.  But the timer, while still showing minutes count down seconds.  This image is a captured screen shot as it is counting down seconds.  But when I cancel the timer, I get which shows the 59 minutes I expected to get.  If I press Start at this point, it will count down seconds.  If I attempt to reproduce conditions, by going to 8 or 9 minutes, then canceling and going to 59 minutes, it works.  It may be that you have to run the timer down to alarm and then try the lower setting.

    Does Apple know about bug in Timer that shows minutes but counts down seconds?
    How would we know?  Call them and ask.

    I just got my replacement phone from Warranty. The phone was on for just 2 hours and it crashed. I was told that motorola knows about this "possible" issue. I got a new sim, hard reset, If it can be done I did it. They are now sending me the same phone again. Number 3. I would hope this one doesn't crash but I rather have a different phone so I can enjoy using my account. The phone's most recent error was today. " Unfortunately, the process com.motorola.widget.circlewidget3d" has stopped. At least the error message works and it's polite. I told tech this and they could not answer my question or help me other then "let's do a hard reset" My warranty replacement is coming on Monday. Let's hope this one works. Anyone else havinbg the same problem. it says "such and such as stop working" on all sorts of stuff! Help! I want my iPhone Back!

    I just did a google search on this issue. OMG, I got a ton of videos on this or similar issues. Each one says in some way to clear the cache, reset the data, etc. Why in the world would this continue to happen and they not do a fix that resloves this without having to lose or stop what your doing. This is a very long and constant issue it seems with Android phones as there must have been pages and pages of what I now call "Unfortunately"  So I am going to pray that Verizon helps me  out and gets me away from this issue and helps me go back to iPhone or try the Samsung.
