Problem With New LinkedIn App

When you sync your iPhone the first thing that happens is your iPhone data from all the apps is backed up on your Mac. With only a few apps, this has usually taken only a short time. However, recently this process for me has taken a very long time, and in fact it looked like it had hung.
However, when I looked at the location where the backup data is written,
~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup
it showed that the backup process was continuing and that files were continuing to be written. By the time I manually stopped the backup process, after 20 or 30 minutes, more than 5000 had been written and there was no sign the process was near being completed.
Examining the contents of a good number of the files showed they seem to be "person records" associated with the brand new LinkedIn app. I should add that I don't have that many connections in LinkedIn and these records seemed to represent people I'm not familiar with.
Sure enough, after removing the LinkedIn app the backup process once again is completed in a short amount of time, so it is indeed the culprit. As an iPhone developer myself I'm not sure why the developers of the LinkedIn app feel the need to create thousands and thousands of separate files to support the application, but clearly that is not a good idea.
Has anyone else noted this problem with LinkedIn, or is there something unusual with my particular setup?

I had noticed the extended backup times but didn't think to associate it with a particular App.
i removed Version 3.0 and reverted to version 2.0 and you're right - the backup times shrink dramatically.
Yet another reason for an update to the App which is their most buggy one yet.

  • Problem with new DB app, report+form, report works great, form says ORA-01403: no data found

    I have a new table, the PK is a varchar2(5) column, when I allow the default query in the report to do its work, I get all the expected data.  when I click on the edit icon (pencil), I get an error screen indicating ORA-01403: no data found.  I'm hosed!  This was generated by the app!  no changes were made to anything in the app, except to turn off tabs at create time.  I even left the default name.
    My ARF is hitting the right table with the PK column, but finds nothing.  I have the "success" message showing me the PK value.  What could be going on here, and how can it be addressed?  Today is the 1st time I have seen this matter.
    I'm running 4.22 as the workspace admin, I have other apps that work fine (to expectation), my browser is FF22, though I plan a downgrade to 18.  Our DB is 11.1.0.7.

    Jorge, thanks for your attention to my problem, I appreciate any insights, although there is a little clarification I can offer.  Also, if you can, please remind me the tags to use in my text that would properly set off the code snippets or prior message content?
    [you wrote]
    You said you have a "success" message showing you the PK value. Can you elaborate on this?
    The form page, under the ARF, allows for the display of a "success" message and a "failure" message.  I have seen my "success" message appear, but it didn't show my key field as a brought-back value (which I told it to include), and I think now this is not relevant any longer.  I found that there was a link on the report attributes page between #ROWID# and a P2_ROWID that was incorrect (probably from an earlier stage of dev in the app), and I changed this to my key field, and this altered the outcome of the ARF action.  This leads to ....
    [you wrote]
    Can you see the correct PK value in the URL? Does the item parameter match what you expect (correct page item and value)? Perhaps share that full URL here?
    I have expected values in my URL.  The URL does show my key value (tail end of URL underlined here):
    ../apex/f?p=120:2:7519563874482::NO::P2_VCODE:RB15
    [you wrote]
    Debug the page and see which process, item or step is actually failing. You could be running some other process on the form page and that could be what actually fails.  Treat it as if the ARF works correctly and see what else could be happening.
    I can add the detail that my 1st message was based on testing with a table where I set the PK as data type VARCHAR2, but in more testing on the actual app (whose URL piece is above) I am using a PK which is CHAR.
    The result of the debug effort is that APEX has built its own query for pulling back the row in the ARF, and it is joining on my PK field to an APEX item P_ROWID which I don't think I created.  Nor does it appear to offer me any avenue for correcting it.    debug snippet:    where "VCODE" = :p_rowid; end;

  • Problems with new Verizon apps

    The remote app worked great until the Oct 18th update.  It does not display the channel up/down volume buttons any more.  It also has an extra row of remote/widgets/keyboard that does nothing.  Can I go back to the old version that worked great?
    The My Verizon app has all the details cut off with no scrolling or zooming?   It's horrible since I can't even read most of the data.  What good are these apps if they don't have the basic of functions working and have very fundamental problems my two year old can find.

    Hello thetick1234,
    I LOVE remote apps for smartphone! I'm always losing remote controls around the house and remote apps are an excellent solution to this popular household issue. May I ask which remote app are you using? In most cases, returning to a previous version of an application isn't optional. I would recommend contacting the developer of the app to see if there are additional options available for you, other than downloading another remote app.
    As far as the My Verizon app, I can certainly assist with the functionality of this app! May I ask what part of the app were you trying to scroll through? Are you able to successfully scroll on other apps on the device? I logged in with my Droid Bionic & I was able to successfully navigate through my account options. If the navigation issue is still an issue then I would recommend uninstalling the My Verizon app and reboot the device. After the device boots up, reinstall the app from the app market or app store, depending on what device that you have. Once the app is re-downloaded, please retest and share your findings with the community, just in case additional assistance is needed.
    Thank you...

  • Laundry List of Problems with New Photos App...

    This isn't really a question, per se, but a list of complaints that others might have input on workarounds.
    1. I made a habit of downloading my photos to the computer after each activity that merited it.  As such, the images were naturally sorted into Events that neatly matched.  As far as I can tell, my images are all in one giant jumble of crap now.  Did I miss a step in the transition where it asked me if I wanted to keep my Events as Albums in the new app or is this just something I'm going to have to do manually?  (I guess I did have a question...)
    2. I try to avoid deleting my photos from my SD cards until I have them backed up in at least two locations.  As such, I end up relying on the app's ability to recognize the previously imported from the new.  This afternoon, I put the SD card in and it did just that, however the import buttons were disabled and even selecting the new images didn't re-enable them.  I had something else to do, so I properly ejected the SD card and came back later.  Now when I put the SD card in, it ONLY sees the old photos and doesn't even recognize the new ones as old ones.  They are completely invisible to the app.  And it won't let me import from an SD card with the Import function, simply "graying out" the folders on the card so they can not be selected.  I had to drag-copy the files into an empty folder on my desktop and then import from that location.  This is precisely n-1 steps too many.
    It really seems like this application could have used several more weeks of bug testing before being released.  I'm not prepared to say that it is definitively worse than iPhoto (which wasn't exactly phenomenal), but it really seems like a weak excuse to cram the iCloud down your throat.  That might be the corporate goal, since they keep putting tiny HDs in the MacBooks, despite the rapidly improving SSD technology and declining prices.

    In Photos your Events were converted to Albums. Easiest access is if you enable the sidebar (View Menu)
    I've seen a couple pf reports of oddities with importing from cards. Nothing to help you there I'm afraid.

  • Problem with new version 4.3.2 apps not working " after update to the new version "

    Problem with new version 4.3.2 apps not working " after update to the new version "
    i was in 4.3.1 then i do the update , but now after update i face this problem , so what i Supposed to do ?!!

    Hi There
    Had the same problem as you. App would terminate when launched.
    Solution to working You Tube app:
    -Go to playstore
    - Uninstall app (it doesn't remove the app, only removes the update)
    - "Et Voila", working again.
    This doesn't correct the problem, it's just a workaround for you to be able to use youtube app again.
    Hope it helped.
    Best Regards

  • Facebook problems with new macbook pro.

    Facebook problems with new macbook pro. I can't publish photo albums to timeline. I can't share items onto timeline. Photos I'm tagged in don't appear on my timeline. Any help?

    Yes! Been living in a hellish nightmare since Sept-Oct. Unlike you, however, Apple has been of no help. They say the iPad is unhackable, plist and crash reports are none of my business and who understands them anyway, their route tracing apps are probably not reliable. The best they could do was wipe the iPad clean. Lost photos they said would be in the cloud....
    Almost immediately was back in somebody's VPN, their remote controller, video, audio, working. Got the purple buddy for the first time today. I have been invaded, my iPad no longer feels like my own, I have lost thanksgiving, Christmas, new year trying to track down the invaders, signed up for a Cisco course, set/reset passwords.
    I don't know who else to contact... Or what next to do.
    I've read similar frustration in other posts, scattered around the support communities. Yours is the only one that has worked toward a solution.
    How did you get anyone at apple to look at your logs and acknowledge there is a problem?
    Would be happy for a suggestion on how to proceed. Already been the apple store genius and tech on phone route.

    How do i fixed my problem with my ipad apps every time i open that apps it takes 10min. to play the games ant its getting LOST MODE and the ipad system is crashing

    We are fellow users here on these user-to-user forums, you're not talking to iTunes Support nor Apple.
    Have you tried closing all apps via the iPad's multitasking bar and then doing a soft-reset and seeing that helps ? To close all apps :
    iOS 7: double-click the home button to open the taskbar, and then swipe or drag each app's screen from there up and off the top of the screen to close it, and click the home button to close the taskbar.
    iOS 6 and below : from the home screen (i.e. not with any app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of each app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    Soft-reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • Wifi problems with new ipad

    I'm trying to learn how to correct wifi problems with new iPad.  It is the wifi only, 64GB model.  I want to be able to use it at work, where we have a great wifi network.  I can usually connect to our network with no problem, but after an hour or so my iPad loses the network.  When I try to reconnect, I see that the network is showing full strength reception, but I get the error message from the iPad that I am "Unable to join" the network.  My iPhone connects to the same network seamlessly, as do all of the other iPhones of my co-workers and the older generation iPads that some of our staff has.
    At other locations, I typically have no problems (home, apple store, etc.) but I have had the same situation pop up at a coffee shop where I could see that there was a wifi network available, but I could not join it even though it was the shop's free wifi. 
    I have tried turning the iPad off, turning off wifi and turning it back on again, and forgetting the wifi network in question.  I can't think of any other methods that are available to an end user to correct the problem. 
    I have already gone to the Apple store to swap out the unit, and the newer one is having the same symptoms. 
    Can anyone offer any advice here?  This is quite frustrating.

    No problem! Have a read at this most interesting article which has special significance as regards your models!

  • List of Problems with new Web Mail

    List of Problems with NEW Web Mail :
    - At first doesn't open full page message list or retain full page as default setting, have to drag down bar
    - Only shows 20 message lines after “pulling down” the divider, screen partially empty until I scroll down.  It should show at least 26, preferably all available
    - After moving bar, bar moves back up after going back to inbox (not delete message) after reading a message, have to move it down again, and again...
    - Doesn't go to next message when delete message on screen is selected, no setting option for default to do this.
    - There is a drop down to select which folder to move a selected email to.  The initial display shows 7 usable choices, with the usual slider and arrow to show more choices.  The space on the slider clearly shows more choices are present (actually about 20 or so are there), but any attempt to use the slider or arrow to see more choices causes the drop-down to instantly disappear.  I can't move the selected field with arrow keys either.  I can select any of the visible 7 choices, and move an email to only one of the 7.  NOTE: This one works in both IE and Firefox, but if Verizon Webmail was fully web standard (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_standards) compliant it would also work in my preferred browser, Mozilla Seamonkey, the direct descendant of the original Mozilla browser.  Webmail should be FULLY web standard.
    - Occasionally a message will move from inbox to trash, without NO indication or command to move them.
    - Emails occasionally flash an error message and simply disappear - not to trash or other findable place, just disappear.  No time to read the error message either.
    - No way to set a whitelist for supposed spam emails, unless the whitelist for “Blocking” is the same.  Very unclear.
    - How can I switch my service back to the original, basic, email which works ok?  I know it’s still there, since some of my other accounts still access it!!!
    This seems my only way of getting this info direclty to the programming staff.  If it doesn't actually do this, will SOMEONE PLEASE FORWARD THIS MESSAGE TO THEM !?!  
    Thanks!

    Contrarily, it is Verizon's, as well as other companies like Verizon whose customer base uses a wide variety of web browsers, web page designers' responsibility to use only standard W3C-recognized code and not to use non-standard non-W3C-recognized code, e.g., Microsoft's Internet Explorer specific code, when designing their web pages. In my opinion based on my observations, Verizon's web page designers are too often guilty of using IE-specific code.

  • Strange problem with the mail app on an iPad

    I've got a bit of a strange problem with the mail app on an iPad - it's sending and receiving mail ok but won't let you delete mail. If you keep at it, it appears as if you have deleted mail (though takes a very long time as you just have to keep deleting it over and over again) -  but the size of the app still keeps going up - reached 600mb so far, even though there is hardly any mail or attachments (goes up quite a lot each time you try to delete anything) - any idea what's causing this and how I can fix it?
    It occasionally comes up with a dialogue panel saying to check my account settings, but I have checked those and they are fine. The little 'loading' icon just keeps spinning constantly too.

    go to Settings > Mail > your account > Advanced > Move Discarded Messages Into 
    and make sure that Deleted Mailbox is ticked, and not Archive Mailbox
    You can also adjust how long the deleted mail stays in the trash immediately below that.
    If you are talking about a gmail account, you may also have to login to your account on the gmail server and update the settings there.  This is what Barney previously posted about that:
