Problems with blank CD-Rs

I seem to be having trouble with not only burning blank discs, but reading them too. On the MacBook, I get errors no matter what program I use to burn a disc. And even when I burn discs on other computers and use them on the MacBook, they all come up as blank, but only on that computer.

I am having a similar problem with my wife's MacBook and Dynex CD-Rs. I cannot burn playlists from iTunes or photos from the finder. I have tried lowering the burn speed and it still has not helped. An interesting note is that they work fine in my MacBook Pro. Is the superdrive in her MacBook more sensitive to cheap CD-Rs or is there a problem with her superdrive?
Her MacBook will read CD/DVDs fine (have not tried reading burned CDs though)... just no burning to Dynex... I will be picking up some higher cost CD-Rs to see if anything changes... in the meantime what are some decent quality (but still cheap) CD-Rs that are MacBook compatible??

Qosmio G30-126 - start up problem with blank screen

My laptop was running perfectly untill i suddenly found it booting with the start up sound enable but without any picture appearing on the display untill i got the windows login page at which the picture appeared with its normal perfect resolution.
The operating system is Windows 7 which was working smoothly, with all toshiba drivers installed from more than 3 monthes and the device was normally shut down the time before the problem appeared.
I tried using the recovery disc but the problem is that i cant see any thing! the computer is working but the display is black as if the laptop is completly turned off.
I tried to connect another external LG LCD but it didnt give any results but only a blank screen.
I really need help in this issue as this laptop contains all my work and i depend on it alot.

Hi Jeka-??
First, thanks for the reply. Second i think i can fully access the BIOS using F1 but the problem that the screen is totally black. You will ask how do you know that you entered BIOS? the answer is that it do the restart when i press the right combination of keys to save and exit i.e. After pressing F1, i press the end key which supposed to give me a message of save and exit and i press Y so the laptop restarts.
Third, are you sure that this is a defected GPU card? as if there are any possibilities to try before sending the computer to Toshiba service center, i'll be glad to them on my own.
By the way the graphic card works perfectly when the computer log on the windows even with games i.e. the monitor starts to display picture starting from the choosing profile page of windows. The original recovery disk is VISTA Ultimate and i'd like to restore it back instead of the installed windows 7 as a trial but unfortunately i cant see the process as i have to enter some data to continue installation and i cant remeber them to do it blind.
Do you know a method to reinstall the bios update again? as when i try to install it through windows 7 it keeps saying " [Error] BIOS Update is not supported OS. Unsupported OS or service pack is installed "

Cascading Select Statements - problem with blank drop-downs

Hello,
I have posted a number of questions about Cascading Select Statements in APEX and though I've received some good information, I still get a blank drop-down when I select the first LOV.
I also found "How to test an On-Demand Process used for AJAX" on the web. Here is the link to the web page:
http://www.inside-oracle-apex.com/2006/12/how-to-test-on-demand-process.html
When I try to test the ON-DEMAND Application Process in the Address Bar of my browser by typing the following, I get an error:
http://beta.biztech.net:2020/pls/apex/f?p=4000:0:211233229176642:APPLICATION_PROCESS=CASCADING_SELECT_LIST:::P6_PROJECT_ID:CASCADING_SELECTLIST_ITEM_1
The error I get is:
Unexpected error, unable to find item name at application or page level.
ERR-1002 Unable to find item ID for item "P6_PROJECT_ID" in application "4000".
As perhaps a last ditch effort, I will post all the steps, all the code and a link to my application.
Here is a link you can visit to view my application:
http://beta.biztech.net:2020/pls/apex/f?p=112:1
You can log in with the following ID and Password
ID: tsimkiss
PW: TS92
Here are the steps that I have followed and the code that I have used.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
1. Create an application process in Shared Components
- On Demand CASCADING_SELECT_LIST - like this:
Process Point: On Demand
Name: CASCADING_SELECT_LIST
TYPE: PL/SQL Anonymous Block
BEGIN
OWA_UTIL.mime_header ('text/xml', FALSE);
HTP.p ('Cache-Control: no-cache');
HTP.p ('Pragma: no-cache');
OWA_UTIL.http_header_close;
HTP.prn ('<select>');
HTP.prn ('<option value="' || 1 || '">' || '- select tasks -' || '</option>');
FOR c IN (SELECT newops.task_name AS task_name,
newops.task_id AS task_id
FROM NEW_OPPORTUNITIES newops
UNION
SELECT DISTINCT pt.task_name AS task_name,
pt.task_id AS task_id
FROM pa_tasks@bizdev pt,
pa.pa_projects_all@bizdev prj
WHERE prj.project_id = pt.project_id
AND prj.project_id =
CASE
WHEN TO_NUMBER(:cascading_selectlist_item_1)=1
THEN prj.project_id
ELSE TO_NUMBER(:cascading_selectlist_item_1)
END)
LOOP
HTP.prn ('<option value="' || c.task_id || '">' || c.task_name || '</option>');
END LOOP;
HTP.prn ('</select>');
END;
2. Create an application item in Shared Components:
Name: CASCADING_SELECTLIST_ITEM_1
3. Create an LOV in Shared Components
- This is the Primary LOV (name it similar to it's select list page item):
List of Values Name: PROJECT_ID
Source: Lists of Values Query
SELECT newops.CLIENT AS project_name, newops.PROJECT_ID AS project_id FROM NEW_OPPORTUNITIES newops
UNION
SELECT ppa.NAME AS project_name, ppa.PROJECT_ID AS project_id FROM pa.pa_projects_all@bizdev ppa
WHERE ppa.project_status_code='APPROVED'
AND (ppa.COMPLETION_DATE IS NULL or ppa.completion_date > sysdate)
AND (ppa.CLOSED_DATE IS NULL or ppa.closed_date > sysdate)
ORDER BY project_name asc
4. Create a javascript and put it in the header of the page where cascading drop-downs are:
<script>
function get_select_list_xml(pThis,pSelect){
var l_Return = null;
var l_Select = html_GetElement(pSelect);
var get = new htmldb_Get(null,html_GetElement('pFlowId').value,
'APPLICATION_PROCESS=CASCADING_SELECT_LIST',0);
get.add('CASCADING_SELECTLIST_ITEM_1',pThis.value);
gReturn = get.get('XML');
if(gReturn && l_Select){
var l_Count = gReturn.getElementsByTagName("option").length;
l_Select.length = 0;
for(var i=0;i<l_Count;i++){
var l_Opt_Xml = gReturn.getElementsByTagName("option");
appendToSelect(l_Select, l_Opt_Xml.getAttribute('value'),
l_Opt_Xml.firstChild.nodeValue)
get = null;
function appendToSelect(pSelect, pValue, pContent) {
var l_Opt = document.createElement("option");
l_Opt.value = pValue;
if(document.all){
pSelect.options.add(l_Opt);
l_Opt.innerText = pContent;
}else{
l_Opt.appendChild(document.createTextNode(pContent));
pSelect.appendChild(l_Opt);
</script>
5. Create two Select List page items:
P6_PROJECT_ID <-- This is the primary drop-down
P6_TASK_ID <-- This is the secondary drop-down
6. In your primary select list, put the following into HTML Form Element Attributes:
HTML Form Element Attributes: onchange="get_select_list_xml(this,'P6_TASK_ID')"
Other settings on the page:
Name: P6_PROJECT_ID
Display As: Select List
Source Used: Always, replacing any existing values in session state
Source Type: Database Column
Source value or expression: PROJECT_ID
Named LOV: PROJECT_ID <--- Choose from drop-down (this is the Application LOV created earlier)
Null display values: - select project -
Display Null: Yes
7. The second select list is based on an LOV and depends on the value of the first select list:
Name: P6_TASK_ID
Display As: Select List
Source Used: Always, replacing any existing values in session state
Source Type: Database Column
Source value or expression: TASK_ID
Null display values: - select project -
Display Null: Yes
List of values definition:
SELECT newops.task_name AS task_name,
newops.task_id AS task_id
FROM NEW_OPPORTUNITIES newops
UNION
SELECT DISTINCT pt.task_name AS task_name,
pt.task_id AS task_id
FROM pa_tasks@bizdev pt,
pa.pa_projects_all@bizdev prj
WHERE prj.project_id=pt.project_id
AND prj.project_id=:P6_PROJECT_ID
ORDER BY task_name asc
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
If you need an actual running copy of my application, I'm not sure I can upload to the Oracle APEX website since uses datalinks to some tables. If necessary, I will give you my login into if you email me directly, however.
If someone could just straighten my code out especially on the ON-DEMAND Application Process, I think that would really help me out.
Hope someone out there can help me.
Thanks
LEH

Sorry, looking at your code that testing URL is still incorrect. You should be passing name / value pairs in the last arguments, and your passing P6_PROJECT_ID as the name part and CASCADING_SELECTLIST_1 as the value part. In your application process you are using CASCADING_SELECTLIST_1 as the parent ID for the P6_TASK_ID dropdown, so it is this name / value pair that you'll need to test. So your URL should look something like this...
http://beta.biztech.net:2020/pls/apex/f?p=112:0:211233229176642:APPLICATION_PROCESS=CASCADING_SELECT_LIST:::CASCADING_SELECTLIST_ITEM_1:[some project id]
(Note: Where [some project id] should be an ID for a project in your database, that has tasks.)
And I'm with Dan here, I still can't access that link you provided. apex.oracle.com should be your next move if you can't resolve it, as you've got at least two people willing to go and have a look at your code.
Hope it helps,
Anthony.

Problem with blank forms being returned by users:

I used Acrobat 9 Pro for Mac to create fillable form for a nonprofit. The form is downloaded from the nonprofit's website and is to be returned by email. The forms are coming back blank. Any clues as to why this is happening? Have tested on Safari as well as Internet Explorer and have been unable to duplicate the error.

This is typically caused by people using the Preview application on a Mac to fill-in and save the form. Preview corrupts PDF forms (and regular PDF) in a number of ways and should be avoided.
What you can do with the returned form is export the form data using Acrobat, and then import it back into a blank, non-corrupted form. In Acrobat 9 you do this by selecting: Forms > Manage Form Data > Export Data
I'd suggest using FDF as the format.

Problem with BLANK Value in SSRS Subscription

I have a report that I designed in Vis Studio 2005 and have deployed to SSRS 2005. I have no issues what so ever when running it interactively out of Report Manager. However when running it scheduled via a subscription, I am running into trouble.
This report has a parameter called "Label". It is set up as a String parameter, Allow Blanks, and Multi-Value. (It does not allow me to select Null values...tells me "The properties for the currently selected item are not valid.") I am getting Available and Default values from a query I have created in a separate dataset. This query pulls in all possible values for Label, including a BLANK value (there are values that are and should be Blank).
In my subscription, I want to select all Labels but label 98, including the BLANK. So when I go in to create or edit a subscription, I simply uncheck the 98 label. I can see a blank checked as well. However when the subscription runs, the subscription status tells me " Failure sending mail: Default value or value provided for the report parameter 'Label' is not a valid value." This ONLY occurs when I have the BLANK label selected in my dropdown list!
However, when I run this interactively out of Report Manager, doing the exact same thing (selecting all labels other than label 98, INCLUDING the Blank), it works properly.
What could be going on here? Kinda new at this and totally stumped.
Tony

Hi Tony,
I met a similar issue before. If I understand correctly, there has Null values in the list not Blank values.
Using Null values in a parameter in subscription is not allowed.
To solve the issue, please change the Null values to Blank values by modifying the query statement of report:
SELECT ... IsNull(column, "") FROM...
By the way, please update the SQL Server Reporting Services to latest version too.
For SQL Server 2005, the latest version is Cumulative Update package 6 for SQL Server 2005 SP3.
SQL Server 2005 SP3: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?displaylang=en&FamilyID=ae7387c3-348c-4faa-8ae5-949fdfbe59c4
Cumulative Update #6 for SQL Server 2005 Service Pack 3
For SQL Server 2008, the latest version is Cumulative Update package 4 for SQL Server 2008 SP1.

If there is no loading bar, it's usually a problem with a third party kext file in OS X itself.
You can press the power button down to force a hardware shutdown, then reboot holding the shift key down on a wired or built in keyboard, this will disable them and you go around and update your third party software.
Gray, Blue or White screen at boot, w/spinner/progress bar
Also take this time to backup your users files off the machine if possible.

Hi Noob Søren
There are a few things that are confusing in your question.
As far as I know, you dont have to install Time Machine on this OS as it is already installed for you. You only need to connect a hard drive to your computer via firewire or usb, click on the Time Machine icon, Open Time Machine Preference in the drop down menu and select a disk: your connected hard drive.
You can of course reformat this connected device, partition it into a few volumes to organise data if you so wish.
I find it strange that your mac's hard drive is divided into two volumes... perhaps this was created through bootcamp?
You can access the configuration of your hd through Applications/Utilities/Disk Utilities.
Clicking on one of the icons on the right hand panel will bring the details of the contents of your hardDrive and volumes. From there you can decide to erase a partition, reformat etc....
If your hd contains more than one volume, and one of them is empty, you could decide to remove it. Back up all your important data before doing so.
Hope this helps

Hi, bamboo64.
Try closing all open applications in multitasking and power cycling the device. Once this is done test the results. If the issue persists, I have included a couple troubleshooting articles that I would recommend going through.
iOS: Force an app to close
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137
Troubleshoot issues on an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
If you haven't been able to connect to the iTunes Store:
Make sure your date, time, and time zone are correct in Settings > General > Date & Time.
Note: Time Zone may list another city in your time zone.
Make sure that your iOS software is up to date by tapping Settings > General > Software Update (iOS 5 or later) or connecting your iOS device to iTunes and clicking Check for Update on your device's Summary page.
Check and verify that you're in range of a Wi-Fi router or base station. If you're on a device with cellular service, make sure that cellular data is turned on from Settings > General > Cellular.
Note: If connected to cellular data, larger items may not download. You may need to connect to Wi-Fi to download apps, videos, and podcasts.
Make sure that you have an active Internet connection. You can check the user guide for your device for help with connecting to the Internet.
Make sure that other devices (portable computers, for example) are able to connect to the Wi-Fi network and access the Internet.
Try resetting (turning off and then on again) your Wi-Fi router.
If the issue persists, try troubleshooting your Wi-Fi networks and connections.

Priscilla,
if your Mac is still in warranty, then you should contact the Argentinian technical support service. If it is out of warranty, then we can try to lend a hand. (We’re just fellow Apple product users here.)

Well, it seems waiting is not my strong suit..! I renamed a javascript file called recovery to sessionstore. This file was in the folder sessionstore-backups I had copied from mozilla 3 days ago, when my tabs were still in place. I replaced the sessionstore in mozilla's default folder with the renamed file and then started mozilla. And the tabs reappeared as they were 3 days ago!
So there goes the tab problem. But again when I started mozilla the window saying "a script has stopped responding" appeared, this time the script being: chrome//browser/contenttabbrowser.xml2542
If someone knows how to fix this and make firefox launch normally, please reply! Thank you
