Point system-why are there points?

Why are there points?  Is there a list somewhere that shows what specific actions you get what points for?  Why do people want more points...what do you get for accumulating points?

Ok...I just found the info about the reputation points and how many you need to get to different levels...and the privileges you get at those levels. Only thing left that I don't get is what's this privilege about "lounge access, MVP Meetups"?  What is this lounge? Why do people want to be an MVP at a meetup?  What's all the info about these Meetups...

    what is watch point and break points?what are there types?

    Static Breakpoints
    Static breakpoints are always user-independent if there is no specification of a user name. Once a user has inserted the statement BREAK-POINT or BREAK name in an ABAP program, the system always interrupts the program at that point for that user or only for the user name. This procedure is only useful in the development phase of an application when program execution is always to be interrupted at the same place. For more information, refer to the chapter Static Breakpoints.
    In HTTP sessions, a static breakpoint is skipped if you did not set additional dynamic HTTP breakpoints in the editor of a BSP page. Instead, a corresponding system log entry is written, which can be checked using transaction SM21.
    Dynamic Breakpoints
    Dynamic breakpoints are user-specific. Therefore, you should use them if you only want the program to be interrupted when you run it yourself, not when it is being executed by other users. All dynamic breakpoints are deleted when you log off from the R/3 System.
    Dynamic breakpoints are more flexible than static breakpoints because you can deactivate or delete them at runtime. They have the following advantages:
    · You do not have to change the program code.
    · You can set them even when the program is locked by another programmer.
    · You can define a counter that only activates the breakpoint after it has been reached.
    Special dynamic breakpoints are useful when you want to interrupt a program directly before a particular ABAP statement, a subroutine, or an event, but do not know exactly where to find it in the source code. Event here is used to refer to the occurrence of a particular statement, for example, or calling up a method. Special dynamic breakpoints are user-specific. You can only set them in the Debugger. For more information, refer to the chapter Dynamic Breakpoints.
    In HTTP sessions, the system stops both at static and dynamic breakpoints if a dynamic breakpoint was set in the editor of a BSP page before program execution.
    Watch point are used to put logical break point for a certain condition..Example..If you want to know when the internal table is getting append..Then you have to give the program name and the internal table in the watch point.. 
    Steps to create a watch point.
    Start debugging '/H'.
    In the debugging screen press the create watch point button in the application tool bar..
    In the program give the program name..
    in the field give the field name.
    In the relational operator given '='
    In the comp. field/value give the value ..
    Hope this helps..

  • Why are there virtually no mobile apps for the Android operating system?

    I am trying to find mobile apps for my android tablet. Why are there virtually no mobile apps for this system?

    Adobe's attitude is not only incredibly insulting and ignorant, it is also short-sighted, particularly considering the top android handsets would actually allow their apps to be more flexible and powerful as they have more RAM at their disposal and the very popular Galaxy Note series would be a perfect device with its integral stylus. This is not acceptable and makes me reconsider staying with my CC subscription. I guess it is time to start looking for adobe alternatives or at the very least demand a discount in our subscription as we are unable to use a large chunk of the subscription portfolio.

  • Why are there no iPhone 6 battery cases with a lightning input port for charging instead of a micro USB?

    Why are there no iPhone 6 battery cases with a lightning input port for charging instead of a micro USB?
    Does it have something to do with the MFI certification? Is micro USB just cheaper?
    I don't want to have to carry around another cable and it seems like this would be a good product. What am I missing?

    Valid point.
    So can I ask why there are no MFI certified lightning female ports on battery cases? Or more so, does this certification even exist?
    And why not?
    This is a user-to-user technical support forum. There is no one here from Apple to answer "why". Again, I would recommend contacting the manufacturers or use the Contact Us link at the bottom right of every page for information on how to contact Apple directly.
    I suspect that manufacturers may view the more standard microUSB charging port as a selling point. Those types of cables are cheaper and ubiquitous.

  • Why are there so many flash updates?

    Why are there so many Flash updates… I have had two in the last week and at least one more since the start of the year. It seems to have really got silly this last 12 months, is Flash really that unsecure and unstable that it needs this many fixes and updates?
    I know you can tick the install in background box when updating but I like to know what is going onto my computer and given Adobe's knack of crashing my system when using PS and AI I don't really want them silently installing anything.

    99% of the time the update gets prompted by Youtube or BBC when videos won't play on there sites and I follow the links through them. You would like to think that big sites like these would not allow false links to malware to crop up, but it isn't out of the question. Next stop, up to date anti virus…..
    As far as Youtube goes I thought they had adopted HTML 5 now as standard and didn't rely on Flash?

  • Why are there 3 library folders on my MB Pro?

    Why are there 3 library folders on my MB Pro? (1) in the HD folder; (2) in the system folder; (3) in the user folder?

    Your home/Library folder contains support and preference files for you. It includes all your mail, if you use Apple Mail, as well as things like contacts, calendars, Safari bookmarks and caches, and so on. It also includes any fonts which you have installed for your user. 20GB seems a little high, but if you have a lot of mail/attachments, this could explain it.
    The /Library folder contains support files (usually third-party) for all users. Adobe tends to put files in here, for example. It also includes iLife template/loop files, so you'll find GarageBand loops here, for example. Fonts which can be accessed by all users can be found here.
    The /System/Library folder belongs to OS X, and contains support files for the system.
    Don't delete any files from any of the folders unless you know what you're doing...

  • Why are there no sounds located in the Library/Sounds folder in Home Directory? My Mail alerts, etc

    Why are there no sounds located in the Library/Sounds folder in my Home Directory? Since upgrading to Mountain Lion most of my sounds are not working, in my Mail alerts, etc.

    Did you put any sound files there? Because if you didn't, that will explain why it's empty.
    The ~/Library/Sounds folder is where any sound files that you add go, and they are only available to you as the "logged in" user (if you have other users with their own accounts, they each have their own ~/Library/Sounds folder). Apple doesn't put anything there.
    The sounds that come with Mac OS X will either be in the /Library/Sounds folder (which is the shared location for all users) or the /System/Library/Sounds folder (don't mess around with anything in the /System folder!).
    But I doubt your problem has anything to do with the sound files. Try deleting your sound preferences file, or even just clicking around in the Sound system preferences until they start working again (seriously - I had one Mac that had some audio problems after upgrading, and just turning things off and on a few times eventually worked. It seemed somehow tied to Dictation, so try twiddling those settings too).

  • HT1386 why are there 0's in some folders that i put photos in in iPhoto when I veiw it in iTunes?

    why are there 0's in some folders that i put photos in in iPhoto when I veiw it in iTunes?

    Those files should be being created in folders of the form:
    <User's Music>\iTunes\Album Artwork\Cache|Download\<GUID>\<##>\<##>\<##>
    The <GUID> in your case is 0CDB362F24AD473A...
    If they are appearing anywhere else I would suspect a permissions problem. iTunes just spits them out where it can. Similar problems can sometimes cause it to drop files on the desktop.
    Repair Permissions
    Right-click on your main iTunes folder and click Properties, then go to the Security tab and click Advanced. If necessary grant your account and system full control to this folder, subfolders and files, then tick the option to replace permissions on child objects which will repair permissions throughout the library. This is the XP dialog but Windows 7 shouldn't be too different.
    Once you've repaired the permissions search for all files of the form *.itc2 in the music folder and delete them, then start iTunes. iTunes will rebuild the artwork cache in the correct location as you scroll through your library.

  • HT204150 Why are there contacts on my iPhone that are not on my Mac (syncing through iCloud)

    Why are there some contacts on my iPhone (and my older Mac) that aren't getting synced onto my new MacBook?

    First check that all your settings are correct, that contact syncing is checked on all devices (system preferences > iCloud on a mac and settings > iCloud on a iPhone, iPad or iPod).
    Make sure the contacts you are adding are added to your 'iCloud' group and not an 'On My Mac', 'On My Phone' or other non iCloud group (you can do this by checking in groups), non iCloud contacts will not sync.
    If you are sure that everything is set up correctly and your contacts are in the iCloud group, you might try unchecking contact syncing in the iCloud settings, restarting your device and then re-enabling contact syncing.

  • Why are there so many more choices on the USA iTunes Store? Surely having an iTunes account should let you access all itunes availability the world over? Also how do you request films/tv series to the UK itunes?

    Why are there so many more choices on the USA iTunes Store? Surely having an iTunes account should let you access all itunes availability the world over?
    Also how do you request films/tv series to the UK itunes? There's tv series I'd like but they're incomplete like The Batman &amp; Xena Warrior Princess. And films theta aren't available for download but you can purchase in a store like HMV?  Apple isn't doing itself any favours by secluding countries by their store. They'd make billions if you could just select the iTunes Store you want to search &amp; purchase from just by signing in! If anything what they're doing is putting themselves into a corner, other companies like Samsung &amp; HTC are already on too of them for innovation &amp; ease of use. The people they're attracting are predominantly existing Apple users not new customers. What do you guys think?

    It's not Apple's choice, they can only sell a particular item where the content provider/rights-holder has granted them a license to sell them. Content is licensed by the rights-holders to Apple on a country-by-country basis, each country therefore has to have its own store, and you have to be in a country to use its store - they want control over where their content is available.
    You can try requesting that an item be added to the UK store via this page, but unless the rights-holder agrees to then Apple won't be able to sell it here : http://www.apple.com/feedback/itunes.html

  • If i am the only user and owner of my macbook, then why are there 78 users in the directory editor?

    Hi guys just wanted to know little bit about the open directory as my MacBook Pro has been playing up on and off at least a couple of years.  I have been advised by Apple over the phone or as well as over the genius bar in trying to get my mac to behave.  This normally solves whatever problem that has been happening at the time. "Great, job done!"...  Not so much, as another problem eventually shows it's ugly pixelated face again and then we end up going round the Infinite loop ride one more time...  And this ride ain't always free!  I have forked out about £600 on it so far and it wasn't cheap in the beginning!  Anyway I have just got off the ride and before I get punched by a plyst to get back on I would rather learn about the things I don't understand so hopefully I can resolve the matter without hair loss.  So my main question so far is why are there 78 user names (most of which are computer related names, not all) are found in Directory Utility?  I do not play games on my Mac it is mainly used for media such as iPhoto, iTunes, pages, mail and surfing the net.  So which out these 78 users do I select as a server?
    If you have any suggestions or pointers then please post a reply.
    Thanks for reading
    Orion

    So which out these 78 users do I select as a server?
    None. It's normal. Make no modifications.
    It's not clear what trouble you are experiencing, or if anything is wrong at all. If your Mac is not behaving as you expect it should, describe what's wrong in as much detail as possible.
    Include all relevant details regarding your MacBook Pro starting with which one of its three dozen models you have. Posting the results of EtreCheck will help with that. Read about it here.

    Is it possible that you or someone copied them to that folder or an automated progress making a backup to that folder.  Normally if you upload the photos then will be stored in your iPhoto library folder. 

  • Why are there no CC Apps in my Creative Cloud Folder?

    Why are there no CC Apps in my Creative Cloud Folder? Just finished cramming Adobe Creative Cloud Flash Professional info. Tried to use it and found that it wasn't in my Apps Folder, nor anywhere else. During my search I discovered that none of the other CC apps were there either. All CS6 Pro apps are there, but no CC.
    IMac 21.5" desktop;  OSX 10.8.5;   2.5 GHz Intel Core i5:   1333 MHz;   4 GB DDR3;   500 GB HD + 500 GB external HD 

    Could you try to scroll down a bit and look into the "Find New Apps" section. I have attached a screenshot for your reference.
    In case you still do not see any CC applications, login to https://creative.adobe.com/products and try to download any CC app and then check if it gets installed and you see it under the "Your apps" section of CC desktop app.
