Random Record Errors

Once in a while, I like to make a playlist and record it to CD. Once in a while, iTunes refuses to do so. Seems that many many many of us have this problem. I have read all existing threads and tried different brands of CDs, reinstalled software, etc. etc. etc. Last time I had this problem a Memorex disc mysteriously worked. Now nothing does. I guess I will have to backup online somewhere and pray that Apple fixes this someday?
Any recommends for backing up online?
I plan to post about this every time I think about it. We all deserve an answer.

  • Display Random Record

    Morning all
    Just a quick one.
    How do I display a random record in DW?
    I have a MySQL statement which is:
    SELECT * FROM
    tablename ORDER BY RAND() LIMIT 0,
    number of records to display
    The error message I get is:
    'Syntax error (missing operator) in query expression RAND()
    LIMIT 0'
    If I alter 'RAND()' to 'RND()', I still get the error. If I
    remove the '0' I still get the error.
    Any ideas how to make this work?
    I'm using Access BTW.
    Regards
    Martin

    Tell your SQL statement what to RAND - right now it doesn't
    know how to
    randomize it, by what field.

  • PPro CS4 "unknown recorder error"

    Premiere Pro CS4 and Premiere Elements 7.0 are both having the same problem on this machine.  During the digitizing process (F5 - Capture window) it will randomly stop digitizing and a window titled Recorder Error pops up with the unhelpful message "Unknown recorder error." and only an "OK" button.
    Here's the machine details:
    XP
    Professional
    Version 2002
    SP3
    HP Compaq dc7600 Convertible Intel(R)
    Pentium(R) D CPU 3.40GHz
    3.39 Ghz, 3.00 GB of RAM
    NVIDIA GeForce 7300 LE Graphics card
    We're digitizing video from a Canon GL2 via Firewire:
    Texas Instruments OHCI Compliant IEEE 1394 Host Controller
    What other info would a trouble-shooter want to know?
    This issue is consistent for mulitple users (this machine has multiple users with unique log-ins and user profiles in Windows).
    It's worked fine until a couple of months ago.  An identical machine is runing Production Suite CS4 just fine.  That machine has only one primary user (me).  The other gets used by a half a dozen people, but the admin. functions are all locked by our IT department.  Can anyone provide links to trusted trouble-shooting instructions or give me some idea of what the problem might be?
    Any assistance or insight would be greatly appreciated.

    We hauled three of our systems to the Mirage in Las Vegas last week where we had to do a live show record to disk and create a bunch of DVD's for
    the event attendees. We ran component from the staging company's equipment into the back of two DV Cam decks and from there we ran firewire cables into our 2 computers.  We were getting the dreaded "unknown record error" on both systems at first.  On both systems, I "Ran" msconfig and disabled all unnecessary startup items.  One of the systems never had an "unknown record error" after that. The other system continued to have the error approx 3-5 times during a 3 hour capture. OnLocation crashed when we hit the record button so we captured everything through Premiere CS4. I think the problem may have been the drive we were capturing to. We were bad.  Harm can probably guess what we did.
    BTW, on the last day before my flight home, I netted a whopping $6 at a craps table.  One of the young ladies I work with won $1100 placing daring but foolish bets.  I watched a guy, not with our party lose over $6000 in a matter of minutes. I asked one of the guys working at the table what was the most he ever saw someone win at the craps table. he said 1.4 million.

  • Random Record + Update

    Looking to create a random record repeat region where the
    random records being pulled updates a hit count. i.e. a simple
    banner rotator that counts how many times it's displayed. not all
    banners being rotated are in one folder... they are simply accounts
    designated as being featured. I tried the order by rand() limit
    5... error. changed to just rand() and that worked... but how do I
    update a file based on that?

  • How can I select the random records in u201Cstep loopu201D.

    Hi, Experts,
    I am using step loop to display the data on screen now I want to select the random records from this step loop display. Like 1st 3rd or 5th record, is there any way to select the records,
    like I did in Table control there was a filed in internal table named marked char length 1, I gave this field name in u201Cw/ SelColumnu201D it fill that field with u2018Xu2019 from where I can get the info about the selected records, in this way I can easily perform the operation on that internal table with the help of that marked field.
    Is there any way to select the records in step loop too ?
    Kind Regards,
    Faisal

    thanks for replay shwetali,
    but i just gave you example of random records with 1st 3rd and 5th my goal is not select only these records. i want to select the random mean any records from the step loop display.
    like we can select from the table control. and when select any record it place 'X' in the given internal table field.
    Thanks and kind Regards,
    Faisal

  • BI 7.0 - Duplicate Record Error while loading master data

    I am working on BI 7.0 and I am trying to load master data to an info object.
    I created an Infopackage and loaded into PSA.
    I created transformation and DTP and I get an error after I execute the DTP about duplicate records.
    I have read all previous threads about duplicate record error while loading master data and most of the them suggested to check 'Ignore duplicate records' option in the infopackage. But in 7.0, I can only load to PSA with infopackage and it doesn't have any option for me to ignore duplicate records.
    My data is getting loaded to PSA fine and I get this error while loading to info object using DTP.
    I would appreciate your help to resolve this issue.
    Regards,
    Ram.

  • Getting Duplicate data Records error while loading the Master data.

    Hi All,
    We are getting Duplicate data Records error while loading the Profit centre Master data. Master data contains time dependent attributes.
    the load is direct update. So i made it red and tried to reloaded from PSA even though it is throwing same error.
    I checked in PSA. Showing red which records have same Profit centre.
    Could any one give us any suggestions to resolve the issues please.
    Thanks & Regards,
    Raju

    Hi Raju,
            I assume there are no routines written in the update rules and also you ae directly loading the data from R/3 ( not from any ODS). If that is the case then it could be that, the data maintained in R/3 has overlapping time intervals (since  time dependency of attributes is involved). Check your PSA if the same profit center has time intervals which over lap. In that case, you need to get this fixed in R/3. If there are no overlapping time intervals, you can simply increase the error tolerance limit in your info-package and repeat the load.
    Hope this helps you.
    Thanks & Regards,
    Nithin Reddy.

  • How to avoid 'duplicate data record' error message when loading master data

    Dear Experts
    We have a custom extractor on table CSKS called ZCOSTCENTER_ATTR. The settings of this datasource are the same as the settings of 0COSTCENTER_ATTR. The problem is that when loading to BW it seems that validity (DATEFROM and DATETO) is not taken into account. If there is a cost center with several entries having different validity, I get this duplicate data record error. There is no error when loading 0COSTCENTER_ATTR.
    Enhancing 0COSTCENTER_ATTR to have one datasource instead of two is not an option.
    I know that you can set ignore duplicates in the infopackage, but that is not a nice solution. 0COSTCENTER_ATTR can run without this!
    Is there a trick you know to tell the system that the date fields are also part of the key??
    Thank you for your help
    Peter

    Alessandro - ZCOSTCENTER_ATTR is loading 0COSTCENTER, just like 0COSTCENTER_ATTR.
    Siggi - I don't have the error message described in the note.
    "There are duplicates of the data record 2 & with the key 'NO010000122077 &' for characteristic 0COSTCENTER &."
    In PSA the records are marked red with the same message (MSG no 191).
    As you see the key does not contain the date when the record is valid. How do I add it? How is it working for 0COSTCENTER_ATTR with the same records? Is it done on the R/3 or on the BW side?
    Thanks
    Peter

  • Invalid TLV record error

    Post Author: CHTClay
    CA Forum: Deployment
    We have an app that was originally written in VB6 (using the ActiveX viewer) with reports designed in Crystal 8.5.  A new executable was added to the app written in C# that uses (not embedded) two report files designed in Crystal 11.5.  The VB6 code was modified to include references to the 11.0 RDC.  The install program (before adding the reports to the C# module) used the following merge modules:
    Crystal11_NET_EmbeddedReporting.msm, CrystalReports11_RDC_Designtime.msm, CrystalReports11_RDC_Runtime.msm, CrystaReports85_ActiveXControl.msm, CrystalReports85_Crpaig80.msm, CrystalReports85_Cpre32.msm and CrystalReports85_Imploder.msm.
    This installation and the app ran perfectly.  After adding the reports to the C# module we recompiled the install (using the same merge modules as above) and reinstalled the app.  The VB6 reports ran as expected, but the two new reports failed because some Crystal Desicions components did not get installed.
    After researching, I created a new install package with the following merge modules:
    CrystalReports11_5_RDC_Designtime.msm, CrystalReports11_5_RDC_Runtime.msm, CrystalReports11_5_RDC_Reportengine.msm, CrystalReports11_5_RDC_License.msm, CrystaReports85_ActiveXControl.msm, CrystalReports85_Crpaig80.msm, CrystalReports85_Cpre32.msm and CrystalReports85_Imploder.msm.
    Reinstalled the app.  The two reports in the C# module work great, however, all of the reports associated with the VB6 code get an "Invalid TLV record" error.
    I have researched this issue here and on the web with no joy!
    Is Crystal Decisions and ActiveXviewer mutually incompatible?  Are we missing something in the installation build?
    Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

    <p>This has happened in the past when your code uses a generic prog id to create the object:</p><p>application.CreateObject("CrystalRuntime.application")</p><p>change to</p><p>application.CreateObject("CrystalRuntime.application.115);</p><p>Another thing you might want to try is to put the craxdrt115.dll into a COM+ package and give it administrative rights. </p><p><strong>KBase Article ID:</strong><span style="margin-left: 5px">c2017301</span></p><p>This is a very generic error so it is hard to say what the problem is with so few details but I tried my best. </p><p>Rob Horne<br /><a href="/blog/10">Rob&#39;s blog - http://diamond.businessobjects.com/blog/10</a></p>

  • CUCM Random disconnect errors

    I have a client who is getting random disconnect errors from his cucm servers.  They seem to encompass other network errors at times as well, but not always.  I'm having a hard time telling if its cucm or if it is a network issue in general.
    I pulled his core logs and at the time of disconnect messages from RTMT I'm seeing this:

    and lots of them, for a few minutes and then it stops.  When I search around for solutions for this I see "contact TAC" repeatedly.  Can anyone help me determine if I have a cm problem or a network problem.  He did reboot the cluster 12 days ago and it didn't stop the problems.  The disconnect errors related to all components of the phone system (cucm, cuc, uccx, cups) and have been anything from "SDL link to remote application is out of service", "OUT-OF-SERVICE AppID : Cisco UP Presence Engine ClusterID", "
    The Cisco UP Presence Engine service on the peer node of a subcluster has failed AppID : Cisco Syslog Agent ClusterID", "user 2 ntpRunningStatus.sh: Primary node NTP server, SVUCCX01, is currently inaccessible or down"
    So its just like all communication breaks and then comes back again.  I'd like to do as much leanring as possilble with this and not just run to TAC.  Any suggestions?

    Hi Dustin,
    Please see the explaination for the error you are getting:-
    CCM_CALLMANAGER-CALLMANAGER-1-SDLLinkOOS : SDL link to remote application is out of service  Remote Application IP Address [String] Unique Link ID [String] Local Node ID [UInt] Local Application ID [Enum]Remote Node ID [UInt] Remote Application ID [Enum]
    Explanation   This alarm indicates that the local Unified CM has lost communication with the remote Unified CM. This alarm usually indicates that a node has gone out of service (whether intentionally for maintenance or to install a new load for example; or unintentionally due to a service failure or connectivity failure).
    Recommended Action   In the Cisco Unified Reporting tool, run a CM Cluster Overview report and check to see if all servers can communicate with the Publisher. Also check for any alarms that might have indicated a CallManager failure and take appropriate action for the indicated failure. If the node was taken out of service intentionally, bring the node back into service.
    Reason Code - Enum Definitions
    Enum Definitions - LocalApplicationID
    Value
    Definition
    100
    CallManager
    Enum Definitions - RemoteApplicationID
    Value
    Definition
    100
    CallManager
    The most common Lost communication for CallManagers could be Callmanager server hang, network problems or high CPU
    You can use RTMT to monitor this.
    CM servers keep a TCP connection to other servers in the cluster. When that TCP connection is broken due to network connectivity or lack of server resources, the above error is generated.
    Also the sdi traces you have provided won't be useful to analyze the problem but rather please take detailed sdl traces.
    If possible then take SDL detailed traces with sniffer filtering TCP port 8002 in order to find out if this is a Network problem or not.
    Sometimes due to highly fragmented disk can cause heavy disk I/O utilizing all the CPU.
    Was there any upgradation or migration activity was carried out in network?
    Please check the server NIC and switch NIC or other NIC have the same speed/duplex settings.
    Regards,
    Nishant Savalia

  • CS4 on Dual Core MacBook Pro...Unknown Recording Error?

  • Duplicate Records error when processing transaction file....BPC 7.0

    Hi All,
    I have a situation. I am using BPC NW 7.0 and I have updated my dimension files. When I try to validate my transaction file every single record is validated successfully. But when I try to import the flat file into my application, I am getting a lot of dupplication records error and these are my questions.
    1. Will we get duplicate records in transaction files?
    2. Even if there are duplication, since it is a cube it should summarize not display that as a error and reject records?
    3. Is there something I can do to accept duplicates (I have checked the Replace option in the data package, to overwrite the simillar records, but it is only for account, category and entity only.
    5. In mycase I see identical values in all my dimension and the $value is the only difference. Why is it not summing up.
    Your quickest reply is much appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Alex.

    Hi,
    I have the same problem.
    In my case the file that I want to upload has different row that differ for the nature column. In the conversion file I map different nature to one internal nature.
    ES: cost1 --> cost
          cost2 --> cost
          cost3 --> cost
    In my desire was that in BPC the nature cost assume the result  cost = cost1 + cost2 + cost3.
    The result is that only the first record is uploaded and all other recorda are rejected as duplicate.
    Any suggestion?

    In some cases, it causes a logout (not reboot or kernel panic).  After logging
    back in the small "graphics error" box is there.
    It is always happening at least once during a browsing session in Safari, often
    more.  It is also not website dependent as going back and reloading the pages where
    the problem occurred will work without the problem.
    With Mail, it is even worse.  Simply getting email is not a problem.  It happens
    if multiple apps are open and I try to create a Mail message.  This is when
    I get the sudden logout situation.  The only way I can compose an email
    is to close all other apps.
    Memory is NOT an issue as I have 24GB installed.
    Anyone having the same issues or clues as to how to fix????
    NOTE:  Everything works flawlessly and as it should if I boot into
                 Mavericks.

    same problem here screen random glitches while surfing the web with macbook pro retina 13 late 24 model. Just graphic issues *for example i may zoom in  photo on the web and it may appear a random line or glitch) yosemite is really bad

  • Select Random Records with Group By?

    Hi,
    I currently select random records by using this type of SQL:
    (SELECT *
    FROM ( SELECT *
    FROM ( SELECT *
    FROM TABLEA
    ORDER BY dbms_random.value
    WHERE ROWNUM <= 100
    Based on the following data, I now want to still pick out random records but I only want 1 record from the same ID and START_DATE but where the FLAG could be Y or N.
    So with grouping by ID and START_DATE, I need to still be able to choose the record if it has anything from 1 entry or 10 entries per ID and START_DATE.
    Could this be performed with a GROUP BY?
    ID START_DATE FLAG
    1 12/12/2005 Y
    1 12/12/2005 N
    1 12/12/2005 N
    1 30/12/2005 Y
    1 30/12/2005 N
    1 30/12/2005 N
    2 10/10/2005 Y
    2 07/07/2005 Y
    Thanks for any help.

    Try this [not tested]:
    SELECT *
         FROM
              (SELECT *
                   FROM
                   ( SELECT
                              ID
                             ,START_DATE
                             ,FLAG
                             ,ROW_NUMBER() OVER
                                  (PARTITION BY ID,START_DATE ORDER BY dbms_random.value) RN
                        FROM TABLEA
                   ORDER BY dbms_random.value
         WHERE RN = 1
              AND ROWNUM <= 100
         ;

  • Duplicate records error?

    hello all
    while extracting master data am getting duplicate records error?
    how do i rectify this?
    in infopackage screen in processing tab,will i get the  option " ignore double data records",?
    when will this option will be enable?
    regards

    Hello
    This option will be available only for Master Data and not for Transactional Data. You could control the Duplicate Records for Transactional Data in ODS, there is an option in the ODS Settings.
    ***F1 Help
    Flag: Handling of duplicate data records
    From BW 3.0 you can determine for DataSources for master data attributes and texts whether the extractor transfers more than one data record in a request for a value belonging to time-independent master data.
    Independently of the extractor settings (the extractor potentially delivers duplicate data records) you can use this indicator to tell the BW whether or not you want it to handle any duplicate records.
    This is useful if the setting telling the extractor how to handle duplicate records is not active, but the system is told from another party that duplicate records are being transferred (for example, when data is loaded from flat files).
