Is anyone else having problems with voicemail displaying number of messages in box?

My phone displays missed calls but never that a voicemail was left. I have to dial in to hear messages. Anyone else having this issue? I am 4s with ATT.

Okay, Just off the phone with ATT. The visual voicemail server is down and has been down for a couple of days. In order for them to respond and escalate an issue a certain number of clients need to be affected. That happened at 950am yesterday morning. According to the gentlemen I spoke with, they have no idea when it will be repaired. He did offer a monetary compensation for the inconvenience.

I don't really know what that means, but trying to fix an issue with code that has that many errors is something like chasing your tail. If you fix the validation errors, there is a pretty good chance it will clear up your problem.
Something else about correcting validation errors, once you fix one, revalidate the page, because many times errors have a cascading effect that cause other errors.

Problem displaying data in Crystal Viewer

Hi,
First time posting on here, so apologies if I've got the wrong thread....
Currently developing an application that uses ASP, via a COM+ object to connect to SQL Server 2005 Db. My problem is that since the users default printer might not be visible on the application server anymore, we have had to use a Crystal viewer on the front end to print. To do this we have moved some code from the COM+ and placed it in an asp page.
This page then creates a connection and runs a stored procedure, putting the results of the query into a recordset. This is then used to populate CrystalRuntime Application, Report and PageEngine objects. This page #Includes the SmartViewerActiveX.asp file which then in turn calls rptserver.asp.
The viewer is displayed on the screen, but with the fields displaying only the field types, no data from the Db is displayed. I have no idea why and am at my wits end!!!   Can anyone give any advice or hints that I could investigate. I've never used Crystal Viewer before and could do with any helpfull advice.   The SmartViewerActiveX.asp and rptserver.asp files have not been ameneded. Do I need to do anything with the ttx files????
Thanks in advance....
Code of the originating asp page :-
<object runat=server progid = Print.print id=objPrint></object>
<object runat=server progid = com.session id=objSession></object>
<object runat=server progid = com.login id=objLogin></object>

Fireworks having problem displaying fonts?

I'm using Fireworks MX 2004 and have found that several fonts are displaying incorrectly in that only the botom half of each letter is displaying.
I've looked at the font file and thats fine, tried it in other applications such as flash, word, powerpoint where it's absolutely fine, so am guessing its a fireworks problem. Tried reinstalling the font, but cant seem to work out whats causing the problem. They are all .ttf files.
Any suggestions? been scratching my head over this one for days.
Thanks

Another workaround I've done in that situation is to add a small character (such as a period) above, below, or to the side of the character I want, separated by a considerable amount of whitespace. I'll try to get the periods off my canvas or to an area where I can cover them with a solid color rectangle. It's a silly solution, but I can usually get it to work.
Or! If you don't have areas of solid color, you could still add the periods and white space, then apply a vector mask to the object so that only the desired character shows. (Wish I'd thought of this idea before today. Would have saved me a bunch of stupid rectangles! )

Problems displaying fonts

Hello.
I am developing my first application using JavaFX 2.2 and I am not able to get a good visualization of the texts. The majority of texts in the application are displayed using Label controls, and I have read that, since Javafx 2.1, font rendering has been improved, including anti-aliasing and subpixel LCD treatment. However, I see some problems in my fonts, like wrong letter glyphs, unexpected colors etc.
As Linux is my execution environment, I have tried to configure fonts in the system through Gnome options, but it does not seem to affect to the application. I have also checked that my FreeType version is quite modern and I have changed the configuration of the fonts.conf, but neither it worked.
I have tested some JVM parameters, like -Dawt.useSystemAAFontSettings, but it only works if the graphical aceleration is disabled, so it is not a solution for me.
The only thing that I can configure and seems to affect to the application is the antialiasing level in the NVidia controls, but it has the drawback that the smoothing is lost and the overall result is even worse.
The operating system is a RHEL 6.2 and the grhaphic card an NVidia Quadro 2000D. The JavaFX version I am using is the 2.2 Developer Preview b19 and the fonts in the application are Arial and Consolas.
As I have read in the JavaFX documentation, although with Text you can make some adjustments regarding fonts, that is not the case when using Label.
Is it possible to change the configuration of fonts rendering in JavaFX to improve the visualization? How?
Thanks.
Regards.

I have also tested the application in some PCs with Windows and the visualization problems are significantly lower.

Problem displaying an error message

I'm having a trouble displaying text stored in a session scope variable, and I'll try to explain this here with a small example. ps: I'm using IBM's RAD (Eclipse Enhanced IDE) to develop JSF.
Let's just say I take the following steps:
1 - I create a new Dynamic Web Project Called Test
2 - I add a new Faces JSP File called index.jsp (into WebContent folder of
course)
3 - I add a command button to the page (using the extended
hx:commandExButton tag, inside a form and, inside a scriptcollector,
this is all added automatically)
4 - I add an output text component to the page (outside the form but still
inside the scriptcollector tag, and visually below the button)
5 - I add a new java.lang.String Session Scope Variable called test
6 - I add to the command button tag the atribute action with the value
"#{pc_Index.proceedAction}"
7 - I check faces-config.xml for the correct mapping between pc_Index and
the Index.jsp backing bean
8 - I create a new method in the corresponding pagecode file (backing
bean) - public void proceedAction () - with only one line:
getSessionScope().put("test","xpto");
which should put the String object "xpto" into the test variable
9 - I drag and drop the test variable to the outputText in the IDE (i believe all
it does is to add value="#{sessionScope.test}" to outputText tag)
And everything runs ok, the message is displayed when the button is clicked, just as I wanted. The thing is, I have a slightly more complex application in JSF on which I can't make this work.
Basicly i have radio buttons and different destinies upon click of a "next" button. And an error message in an output field should be displayed when no radio button is selected, since the page remains the same. but I can't make the message appear, it only appears when I click "Previous" on another page to get back to the first one. Then the message magicly appears (and it shouldn't even appear those times...)
Any ideas? Any help would be most apreciated, thanks.

How to access MailItems within the Message View?

I'm working on an Outlook 2013 plugin that needs to access the emails currently displayed in the Message View.
I already searched around a lot but I could only find ways to list emails by folder (and also the current folder). E.g.
Outlook.MAPIFolder curFolder = this.Application.ActiveExplorer().CurrentFolder;
Outlook.Items mailItems = curFolder.Items;
MailItem item = mailItems.GetFirst();
This would work fine if the user didn't apply any search filters; but if a filter is applied via the instant search bar this code would produce the same list of MailItems as if the filter wasn't applied.
I thought of two ways of potentially solving this but couldn't find any resources online that worked for either. 1) Preferably, get direct read access to the MailItem list currently rendered within the Message View. 2) Alternatively, read the value in the instant
search text-box and apply that to the currently selected folder using the Items.Find()
command.
From what I've read I don't think either of these elements have supported direct access in the Outlook Object Model; but there must be some way to solve this problem. I've also tried using
this.Application.ActiveExplorer().Filter;
but this appears to output a DASL query in the format ("http://schemas.microsoft.com/mapi/id/{00062008-0000-0000-C000-000000000046}/85700003" = 0) so I'm unsure if this is could be reformatted or be used as a filter.
Any guidance or explanations would be greatly appreciated; thanks in advance.

Hello Davon,
The Filter property is useless in that case. I spent some time researching that and found the following way:
The
GetTable method of the TableView class returns a Table object
that represents all of the Microsoft Outlook items that are contained in a TableView object.
Here is what MSDN states:
The GetTable method of the TableView object
returns a table of items from one or more folders in the same store or spanning over multiple stores, in an aggregated view. For example, an aggregated view obtained by a search across all mail items by using Instant Search. This behavior differs from the GetTable method
of the Folder object,
which obtains a table object that contains items from the same folder.
private void DemoViewGetTable()
// Obtain the Inbox folder.
Outlook.Folder inbox =
Application.Session.GetDefaultFolder(
Outlook.OlDefaultFolders.olFolderInbox)
as Outlook.Folder;
// Set ActiveExplorer.CurrentFolder to Inbox.
// Inbox must be the current folder
// for TableView.GetTable to work correctly.
Application.ActiveExplorer().CurrentFolder = inbox;
// Ensure that the current view is a table view.
if (inbox.CurrentView.ViewType ==
Outlook.OlViewType.olTableView)
Outlook.TableView view =
inbox.CurrentView as Outlook.TableView;
// No arguments are needed for View.GetTable.
Outlook.Table table = view.GetTable();
Debug.WriteLine("View Count="
+ table.GetRowCount().ToString());
while (!table.EndOfTable)
// First row in Table.
Outlook.Row nextRow = table.GetNextRow();
Debug.WriteLine(nextRow["Subject"]
+ " Modified: "
+ nextRow["LastModificationTime"]);

No display of error message log in dialog box

Dear MM Experts,
During enter incoming invoice (MIRO), when we click simulate after entering all necessary data, all error & warning messages are displayed in a dialog box if there is red traffic light. In our case despite red traffic light error messages are not displayed as shown in below screen shot. Only warning messages are displayed & document canu2019t be posted. Please let me know if anyone has encountered such behavior & knows the solution. We just want to see the error messages in dialog boxes so that necessary data can be entered and document can be posted.
Additional information: 1. No GR needs to be done, 2. GR based IV is unchecked in PO, 3. No validation is active for the company code,
Thanks & regards,
Avinash

Hi,
Thanks for your response.
Our problem is not to post a particular invoice doument, the main problem is that error log is not displayed in MIRO. For example if balance is not zero then this error should be displayed in error log dialog box, which is not happening due to which we are not able to post any invoice document as error is not known to the user. Please let me know if any suggestions.
Additional information: We have deactivated all validations & BADis. We also tried to compare with other systems where error log is displayed properly however our ABAP consultant could not find any difference. Any Input on how to compare is also welcome.
Thanks & best regards,
Avinash

How to change color of background and font in Message Boxes

I have a req, where I have to display a warning message for certain condition. I did that using pagecontext.putDialogMessage(msg).
But the business wants to have the displayed message in a more bright color. I didn't come across any documentation on how to change the background and font of a Message Box. Can you please help me out in solving this issue ??

user597481 ,
Here are my responses:
For displaying a warning message, putDialogMessage takes only an OAException bean.
OAException is a java class and not a java bean.I'm not clear on how to use a OARawTextBean to display a warning message. I tried looking thru dev guide but still am not clear on how to do it.
>>
1)Add a raw text bean in pagelayout region at the top.
2) Now in ur code whenever u need to throw exception, set some page parameter say xxx=true and then, use pageContext.redirectToCurrentPage
that will redirect the flow to process request.3)In process request based on page parameter xxx=true, u can get exception message and use setValue in raw text bean to show it.
I hope this is clear

Problem displaying the output in the same view

hi Gurus,
I have developed an web dynrpo application and have three views, in the first view I am having an input field from which I am calling a BAPI by giving that input field value as input to the BAPI.
Now is it possible to display the output also retrived from the BAPI on the same view.
Thanks and regards
kris

hi LM,
Thanks for your fast response.
I think I was not clear in explaining my problem.
I have a view in which I have an input field which is the input to the BAPI, now on entering the value in the input field I have a submit button, on clicking the BAPI should be executed and also the the output should be displayed on the same view.
Now regarding the mapping both the input and output are in the same context, would that a problem.
And also after getting the output from the BAPI I have to do some validations based on the output from the BAPI and get some message printed on the view.
Please help me in this issue.
Thanks and regards

Mail Composed, and incoming messages displayed Font too small.

Most emails I receive and my outgoing composed messages use a font size around 12 point. People who receive my emails see a normal size, but while I am composing or reading incoming messages the font displayed is too small and difficult to read.
When I use other applications where I also use or view a 12 point font, and have the viewing magnification set to 100%, the displayed font is just fine. I think this is due to my screen resolution which is set to 1280x800 on my 13" MacBook.
When I change my screen resolution to 1024x768, the mail displayed 12 point font becomes readable, and in other applications the 12 point font at 100% magnification is the same as when I was using the 1280x800 screen resolution.
I have tried entering Command-Plus to magnify the displayed mail message, it actually increases the font size in the message rather than magnifying the message and keeping the font the same.
Is there another way I can magnify just the displayed message without magnifying the whole desktop/screen?
Thanks in Advance.
Jeff Cameron

Yes, setting the monitor to the default resolution, it does look fine. But for applications like Word, Pages, Preview and many other when you set the display zoom magnification to 100.00 regardless of the screen resolution the text seems normal, but in Mail, there is no screen zoom magnification, and so the higher the screen resolution, the smaller the text in composed and received messages is.

Mail not displaying Message Viewer window

Hi,
Just installed Lion on a 2.8GHz Intel Core 2 Duo Mac. After installing Lion, Mail refuses to display the message viewer window. I can open 'file > new message' and 'file > new note' windows but when selecting 'new viewer window' nothing happens, the same if I select 'Mail > Preferences'. Mail seems to be connecting and downloading messages okay but I can't view them!
Any help appreciated!
Chris

Simular problem:
Its iMail Version 6.3 (1503) which comes with a fresh install of 10.8.3.
Any email base64 encoded is corrupted or not shown.
eg Any message from and Exchange Client that has both plain text and html in the same message where the plain text section is Base64 encoded.
eg
Content-Type: multipart/alternative;
boundary="_000_CD848A046C8D3_"
MIME-Version: 1.0
--_000_CD848A046C8D3_
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64
base 64 encoded block
-_000_CD848A046C8D3_
Content-Type: text/html; charset="utf-8"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64
base 64 encoded block
The work arround it to switch to the classic view, open the message there, then switch back to the modern view and the text of the message magically appears. Its probably something to do with the way in which the new iMail processes message bodies, that the older style viewer had fixed. (You can switch between classic view and modern view under the Vieweing preferences tab)
It also seems to impact sent messages or anything thats been base64 encoded.
Hopefully its such a major bug it will be fixed soon. (lol, like some of the bugs in iMail on 10.6.8 were fixed ?)

Even though I have LCD font smoothing disabled, Mountain Lion still uses it in PDF views, Safari's location bar, Mail's message view, and the dialogs for mounting encrypted disk images.

Even though I have LCD font smoothing disabled, Mountain Lion still uses it in PDF views, Safari’s location bar, Mail’s message view, and the dialogs for mounting encrypted disk images. Is there any solution to this problem? Also diabled the Smoothing in the SystemPrefs and also via Terminal. Font smoothing is still there. Very annoying, especially in PDF attachments in Apple Mail.

Try feeding Safari a user-defined CSS file with font-smoothing tweaks (including none). The filename and its filesystem location are arbitrary. Use your favorite coding editor.
Safari > Preferences > Advanced > Style Sheet:
Here is an example with all elements uncommented. Pick the one that works best for your Safari viewing and comment out the others:
Preview. Try Preview > Preferences > PDF > Smooth text and line art (uncheck)

Using Boxes or Compact display option in Messages

Is there a way to return to the Boxes display option in Messages under Mavericks? I was never a fan of the Balloons, which appears to be the only display option now.

HI,
Open a Finder window.
Go to the View Menu and chose View Options
In here chose to display the Modified column.
Now use the Go Menu and hold down the ALT key and select the Library that appears.
Now navigate to the Preferences folder
Find the com.apple.ichat.plist item and highlight it.
In a view that display the columns such as Cover Flow check the date (and possibly time) that the files was last Modified.
Now open Messages.
If the setting in Mesaages > Preferences > Viewing have Changed again remake them to what you want.
Does the Modified column show the current time that you do this ?
If it does not then you may not own the file or have Permission to write to it.
with the file still highlighted use the CMD and i keys together (Get Info)
In the panel that opens scroll to the bottom.
Your shortname should be lists with Read and Write permissions.
Also if you highlight your name and then use the cogwheel type icon it should have, in greyed out text as if already done, "Make yourShortname (me) the Owner"
If you have Read and Write Permissions and the "Make" item is greyed out then you Own the file and have the correct permissions.
