Q from a non-user to current users - menu, screen protector

Hey there
Am in Hong Kong, so have a little longer to wait until the iPhone reaches us. Have two little questions for current users:
1) Can you choose what items appear in the menu and in what order they are in? For example I would never use the "stocks" button and would prefer that it not be there if I had an iPhone. Or are you stuck with the menu as Apple created it?
2) Is a screen protector necessary? I've seen a few messages saying that it wasn't, but I am one of those people who puts a screen protector on everything on day 1 - my phones, my nano... I pity my firstborn child, as I'll probably put one on them too. Just wondering whether people feel that a screen protector is needed or is simply unnecessary?
Thanks
NK

1. No, you use it in the order Apple has them. It isn't a big deal because the buttons are so big and beautiful there's no problem finding what you want.
2. It isn't really necessary. The screen is optical glass and if you look on some web sites people have tested in in a bag of keys, chains, dropping it, carrying it around in pockets for hours on end and there's no sign of a scratch. It's totally different from the iPods.

Unable to Open Bex report from SAP APO User Menu

Hi All,
I am an SAP APO consultant, and have not miuch expereice in BEx reporting. As APO uses Build in BI for reporting and pulling history from either external BW or R/3.
Now my issue all BEx reports we use are assigned ot my user menu and when I select a report, I would expect report to open but an excel sheet opens and closes and nothing happens. However I am able to open this reports from my desktop menu selecting Business explorer and Analyzer and linking my SAP system. I use Excel 2007 , Is this some compactibilty issue or is there anything I need to do?

Hi KV,
There's a couple of possible root cause why you dont see properly the Bex Report.
Can you share to me the APO version and the BW software component being used?
In case this is still in the 3.x, 4.x APO, I think, a separate BW add on is needed for you to run your BEx report properly. You can ask your basis team for this separate installation.
Btw, is this report working before, meaning was it pulled successfully already in the past?
Can you try doing this again in a separate workstation, as the BW add on is installed separately per workstation.
Its possible that this is also an auth issue that the user you are using is not capable enough to run BEx.
As of now, I have not encountered any Bex issue that is related with the Excel version, I have tried running Bex in Excel 2007 no issue also. I think it maybe more related with the OS you are using, if its in Vista already what I know is you need to add your excel as a trusted document before you can run bex fro Vista.
Let me think of other possibilities.
Hope this helps.

Ibook G4 stuck at 'select user' menu screen

hey....been reading through this forum about and realised that many have the same problem i'm currently facing with my ibook g4...
i'm able to boot up my ibook normally then it'll get stuck at the blue screen where the 'select user' menu is supposed to pop up....
tried the various method like repairing disk on disk utilities but the DU reports that my disk does not need any repairs...the thing is i'm able to boot up as per normal via safe mode and thats as far as i can get...any help? thanks in adv!

If you have the original boot installer disc set which accompanied the
computer when new, there is an Apple Hardware Test on there.
The computer may have some hardware failure behind this anomaly
and may require troubleshooting to get an estimate on what may be
wrong, if a hardware defect is the cause of this problem. Otherwise,
tech time and a hopeful cure may take one of several possible paths.
In some computers, the wireless won't work when in SafeBoot mode
perhaps in more than I know. I have not tried to go online in mine while
they are in SafeBoot, since that is a reduced boot set and is for testing
or checking the computer mostly.
Was there a report in Disk Utility from running the booted installer disc's
version of that utility? Sometimes, when it is repairing a disk drive, and
some report says it can't fix something, then that may indicate failure in
the hard disk drive; or some directory issue, or perhaps a low-level one
where the drive may need to be over-written with zeros using the option
in Disk Utility from the booted installer disc, & reformat to APM or HFS+
before running the Installer to put a new system on the wiped empty HD.
You may need to try different things in order to further troubleshoot this
computer, to include Disk Warrior or other third party disk utilities, or
have someone who already has the correct disks and is trained, to do it.
There may be an error in the hard disk drive, so if you haven't tried using
the options in the Disk Utility to zero the drive, that may be something. If
you have work on this computer and had not backed it up to other media,
it will certainly be lost; if not before now, very surely once it gets wiped.
A third party utility such as Disk Warrior can be used to try and fix the
issues, as best it can and only do what it was intended, at most; but may
allow you to fix the system enough to recover your data and move on...
Since the computer does boot into SafeBoot, you can recover files from
the hard disk drive. It probably will also boot into FireWire Target Disk
Mode, so using a FW cable to another Mac could occur, to move files.
The moved files could be saved to DVD or CD-R media in another Mac.
Of course, once you'd tried the reinstall (not just use the menu bar choice
of several other functions prior to launching the Installer) your old System
may be in the hard disk drive with a name 'previous' and it won't boot it.
Other ideas on hard disk drive issues, can be found in other forum posts;
some are not exactly the kinds of symptoms your machine exhibited.

Freezes when I try to log in and goes back to the user menu screen every time.

A few weeks ago I was on Google Chrome and it froze up a little bit. The bell rang for me to go to my next class so I shut my MacBook Pro and was on my way. Later, I opened my laptop to see Chrome still frozen on my screen even though I have it set to require a password after the laptop has been in sleep mode.
I restarted my MacBook and tried logging in. I got the beachball spinny wheel cursor thing, the screen froze for a few seconds, and it went back to the user login screen. I have tried safe booting it, restarting it many times, and many other things but this problem is still happening and I cannot log into my main account.
I had that main account account and a guest account so I logged into the guest, set it as an administrative account, and have been using that account ever since. I've also uninstalled and reinstalled Chrome. It sucked but hasn't been too big of a problem because I have just been spotlight searching files whenever I need them.
Now another problem is coming up. My iTunes. I cannot access my normal iTunes library from this guest account. I want to put some new songs on my iPhone but can't.
Does anybody know how I may be able to fix the logging in issue to my main account?
Does anybody know how I can get my normal iTunes transfered to this new account, even though I can't log into my old account?

Sending notification from workflow to non users

I have a workflow requirement where I would like to send notification to Email
IDs of People who are not defined anywhere in the Content Management System.
Basically the workflow is to review Documents for various Projects being
carried out for our Customers. At the end of the workflow we would want to
just notify the Customer that the document has been reviewed and approved
and that they could collect them from our office. The email ID of the
Customer is being stored as a metadata field and the purpose is to send a
notification to this Email ID for the respective content.

Hey There,
This is a great question and a common request.
Here at Fishbowl, we have an add-on component called Subscription Notifier that will do exactly what you are asking. It gives you the ability to define your own email templates so you can easily tailor the look and feel of the emails, it will email users and non users alike on a triggered and/or scheduled and/or event basis which gives you maximum flexibility. Furthermore as long as there is a look-up vector then email addresses can be pulled from anywhere they're stored (e.g. metadata as you currently have it, a data provider, database table join, IDM system etc.). Subscription Notifier also has built-in hooks to handle callbacks so that after a notification is sent out additional business process steps can be automated.
Please take a look at the specs here: http://bit.ly/ENRwq

[SOLVED] Wireshark from a non root user

Hi,
Recently I've tried to install wireshark. I wanted to use it from my everyday user. However I encountered a problem during the installation
Failed to set capabilities on file `/usr/bin/dumpcap' (Operation not supported)
usage: setcap [-q] [-v] (-r|-|<caps>) <filename> [ ... (-r|-|<capsN>) <filenameN> ]
Note <filename> must be a regular (non-symlink) file.
After installation I added my user to wireshark group.
So first thing I did was checking if /usr/bin/dumpcap is not a symlink to something else but it isn't.
Then I went to the wireshark page which gave me this solution:
setcap 'CAP_NET_RAW+eip CAP_NET_ADMIN+eip' /usr/bin/dumpcap
But it gives the same error. I figured out a simple workaround. I gave dumpcap a +s bit.
But I'd like to know if it's secure or is there a better way of doing this?

Oh, silly me. I forgot to compile the capabilities support for ext4 in my custom kernel. Topic may be closed.
And also if any mod feels it's in a wrong category it may be transferred.

Can't receive text messages from other iphone users but can receive them from non-iphone users

I had to recently reinstall mavericks to my MacBook and suddenly I haven't been able to receive text messages from iphone users on my iphone. I can send them but not receive them. Recently I was able to receive a text from an iphone user who turned off his imessages before he texted me. That came through. Of course, this would be difficult to ask every iphone user i know to turn off imessages in order text me. I've also tried to turn off my imessage on my macbook, iphone and ipad and still can't receive them. Lastly, I've also tried resetting my networking settings and that didn't help either. Any suggestions???

I am having the same problem minus the fact that I don't have a Mac computer I just can't receive any messages from iPhone users and I can't turn my iMessage back on at all it keeps just turning it off every time I try to turn it on. any help would be greatly appreciated.

How to copy the International settings from current user to default user/welcome screen on Windows 8.1/ Server 2012R2 via PS script?

Hi,
I have to script the international settings in virtual machines which are Win Server 2012R2 or Win 8/8.1.
For the current user, it's quite easy.
new-WinUserLanguageList nl-BE
set-WinUserLanguageList nl-BE
Set-WinSystemLocale nl-BE
set-Culture nl-BE
But how can I copy these settings to the Default user/Welcome screen? I cannot find a solution for that. Even on the site of Microsoft,
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh852115.aspx all CMDlets are only for the current user.
Maybe I'm looking with the wrong keywords, but... With Powershell v4 it should be possible, isn't it?
Thanks for looking together and hopefully we can find an answer.
Kind reg,
Dirk

Questions like this would best be answered in the deployment forum.
The default lock screen tracks the current user. The system lock screen tracks the local system admin account.
There is a SYSTEM profile which, I believe, can be set via registry.

Fire non-user defined event inside another event

I want to call a normal/non-user defined event after an operation has occured inside a different normal/non-user definded event. Is this possible?
The reason I don't want to use a user defined event is that if this can be done this way it would be much cleaner implemenation. Also, cleaner than using a sub-vi which would require a lot of wiring.

From my experimentation with this, it appears that the fired event
will not actually execute until the event currently being executed
(the one that fires the other event) is completely finished. The
"time" terminal of the second event idicates the time when it was told
to fire, but it does not actually execute then. You cannot say do
steps 1,2,3 in an event, temporarily leave that event to do code in
another event, then come back to the first event and complete steps
4,5. If the second event is fired after step #3, then steps 4 and 5
will finish first before the second event executes. This contrasts
with other languages such as Delphi were you can leave one event
temporarily.

Limiting Number of connections from a single user

Hi ,
I am using 9.2.0.6 DB, i need to restrict the number of connections from a single user to 100.
Currently the user is having DEFAULT profile, this profile is having several other users associated to it.
What are all the available options to create restriction for a single user.
Create a new profile and add the user to the New profile is the option i have.
In that case can i create a copy of the Default profile and changing the SESSIONS_PER_USER to 100? will it work.
Appreciate your suggestion.
Thanks,
Sathis
Edited by: user7043544 on Feb 22, 2010 9:46 PM

Hi,
Since it is a default profile you can just create a new profile with the resource type you are interested it.
And if you want to copy the existing profile extract its ddl through below command, change the profile name and required resource and run against the db.
select dbms_metadata.get_ddl('PROFILE','<Profile_name>') from dual;Regards

Non user-specific layout in Tx KOC4

Hi all.
We´re trying to create a not user specific layout on tx KOC4, but the option "user-specific" is check and grayed out and can't modify it.
We´re using the standard report.... I search on the forum and on sap notes for a solution, but I can´t find it.
Thanks in advance for your help.

If you want to be able to create non-user-specific layout from the actual/planned cost report in you have to flag the field "layout visibility - shared" in transaction OKN0. Then you will see that the user-specific field is no longer greyed out anymore.
I leave the solution, if anyone needs the help sometime
Thanks any way!

You didn't install Oracle correctly, especially you didn't run the root.sh and rootpre.sh scripts.
If you would have read the error message at all, and researched it, you would have known this.
Regrettably however you decided to ignore Forums Etiquette and to abuse this forum with Yet Another Doc Question.

Error message in creating EBP users from existing SU01 users

I am getting the following error messages when i try to create EBP users from existing SU01 users using users_gen: Error during creation of user: User not created or error(s) occurred during user creation. ``Central person`` already exists for user (BBPU_MESSAGES 042). Pls what does it mean and how do i solve this?

Babalola-
The message is indicating that the user you are attempting to create was previously created in the EBP system.
First I would try to correct the user via users_gen using the "check users" option. This may repair the user, but if the user has lost the association to the org then you will need to take some manual steps to re-establish the links for the user in the org details.
If this doesn't correct it, then use transaction PP01 to correct/verify the following relationships for the user. Start with the org unit and work your way down looking for the broken link/s.
Here are the required relationships for the objects:
ORG UNIT:
Relationship     Object
B 003          Position(of user)
POSITION:
Relationship     Object
A 003          Org Unit
A 008          Central Person (of user)
A 008          User
CENTRAL PERSON:
Relationship     Object
B 008          Position
B 207          Business Partner
B 208          User
USER:
NONE
BUSINESS PARTNER:
NONE
Hope this helps you.

Iphone 5 broke switched to old iphone 4 but cant get texts from other iphone users cant do anything with iphone 5 like i said its wayy broke

IPhone 5 broke switched to old iPhone 4 but cant receive texts from other iPhone users cant do anything with iPhone 5 screen does not work

I'm guessing that you turned off the iPhone 5? If so, then are you using the same phone number as the 5? You need to go into Settings>Messages>make sure that iMessage is turned on and activated. Then go the Send & Receive and find out if your current number is checked.

TS2755 Texts from other iphone users not coming through while roaming.

I am roaming daily in the US. Ever since I upgraded to ios 7 my phone won't receive any texts from other iphone users unless I am on wifi. Texts do come through from non-iphone users. I do have cellular data shut off while roaming (I don't want to be charged roaming fees for facebook notifications, emails, etc.) but this never stopped texts from arriving before updating. I pay $20 a month to text from the US and want to be able to utilize this feature! Any suggestions?

Settings -> Messages --> see what is checked for receiving messages
Does your iPad have 3G/4G?
If not then most likely the messages are going to your Apple ID email
You can uncheck that and just leave your number checked
It should then come to your phone
