RE: possible glitch with conditional questions

I've been designing a form with mulitple conditional questions. On testing, a 'glitch' seems to be occuring. If i a) check and answer to a question which leads to a secondary conditional question, and then b) check a response in that conditional question, and then c) change the response to the original question, the response to the conditional second question remains. i think this may be due to the fact that once you check an answer in a single choice question, you cannot "unanswer" or uncheck the whole question, that is you cant "remove" the check all together.
Any workarounds?

I'm not quite sure I understand. Can you create a simple form illustrating the issue and send it to me. Please enumerate the exact steps that cause the issue.
Thanks for the clarification.

Is it possible to create a Column with Conditional Mandatory with another Column?

Is it possible to create a Column with Conditional Mandatory with another Column?
For example
In a Table we have column A, B, C.
A is Primary Column.
B is Optional
C is Conditional Mandatory.
A B
C
12345 ABC
OK
12346 NULL
NULL
12347 ABC
OK
Only if the B Column has the value then only C column should be mandatory

I guess you can't create a condtional mandatory column directly. However, you can use check constraint to on the column
create table YourTable
A int primary key,
B char(3),
C int,
constraint ch_con check(
B
is not null
or C is null

It depends on what country you're in and whether or not they're still available in the iTunes Store. Some purchased movies and all rentals won't be available.

Possibly a very basic question but I have set up a spread sheet in Numbers and have viewed help videos but I can't get it to give me sums for the columns I highlight. Keeps coming up with the figure zero. I have version 09 2.3(554). Can anyone help

Possibly a very basic question but I am going nowhere without a solution. I have set up a spreadsheet in Numbers but it won't give me sums for chosen columns. I have viewed the run through videos and used the formula but nothing happens apart from giving a figure of zero or a red arrow. The sum icon in the bottom left hand section of the window does not highlight or show any total as I understand from the video that you can drag whatever total is here onto the relevent position on your spreadsheet. I have Numbers 09 version 2.3 (554). Can anyone advise. Thanks.

Hi Sohojools,
To sum a column, use a formula such as this one in Cell A6
Type this in a cell below your data:
=SUM(A2:A4) or whatever range of cells you want to sum. The easy way is to type:
=SUM(
and then drag or shift-click to select the range of cells. Close the formula with a final bracket ")".
The sum icon in the bottom left hand section of the window does not highlight or show any total
To see the sum (and other simple statistics) in the bottom left, select a range of cells. That tells Numbers which cells you are refering to.
The videos are good, but the Numbers'09 User guide, and the Formulas and Functions User Guide are better. Download them from the Help Menu in Numbers.
Regards,
Ian.

I have just deleted Macintosh HD. Now I have reset my computer and there is just a flashing glider with a question mark. I don't know what to do, I'm really worried about this so please May you get back to me as soon as possible?

I have just deleted Macintosh HD. Now I have reset my computer and there is just a flashing folder with a question mark. I don't know what to do, I'm really worried about this so please May you get back to me as soon as possible?

Why did you delete the hard drive? If you delete the contents of the Macintosh HD you have no system to boot into. That's what the flashing folder/? means. What system were you using before deleting everyting.
You're going to have to install a system on the HD before you can boot.

Possible little glitch with the Nano(second generation)

It may just be my iPod i'm not sure, but if I select a song by author then go to my songs directly it dosn't show that that song is playing with the "<))" icon. This leads to other smaller glitches with song selection. Again, this is only minor so it's nothing to freak out about. Just wanted to put it out there. Has anyone noticed this besides me??<br>
Nano(second generation) Windows XP Pro

Do you mean this by any chance?
See: Some songs don't don't show under artist on my iPod.

I am very excited with this ios 6, but now am very regretful that why did i updated my ios because the new ios 6 did not live up to my expectations, Youtube was gone, iTunes cannot automatically sync with my iPad, iMessages is logging out automatically, even facebook is acting wierd. facetime connection is very poor there are so many glitches with this ios 6. And I know that it is impossible for me to turn back safely to ios 5.1.1 now. Are there any suggestions you can give me? I just want my iPad 2 back to its normal and efficient stage again. Thanks

I am sorry to tell you that Apple does not provide a downgrade path for iOS. There are unsupported methods for doing so, but we are forbidden to provide that information on these forums.

UPDATE multiple columns with conditional SET parameters

I have a procedure that updates multiple columns of a table using the procedure's parameter. Is it possible to have one update statement with conditional SET parameter?
CREATE TABLE TEMP
(POL_NUM NUMBER,
OED DATE,
TERM NUMBER,
TRANS_CD CHAR(2));
INSERT INTO TEMP VALUES (1, '1 AUG 2009', 12, 'NB');
INSERT INTO TEMP VALUES (2, '4 AUG 2009', 12, 'XL');
INSERT INTO TEMP VALUES (3, '2 AUG 2009', 12, 'RN');
COMMIT;
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE TMP_PROC (
pPOL_NUM NUMBER,
pOED IN DATE,
pTERM IN NUMBER,
pTRANS_CD CHAR2)
AS
BEGIN
IF pOED IS NOT NULL THEN
    UPDATE TEMP SET OED = pOED WHERE POL_NUM = pPOL_NUM;
END IF;
IF pTERM IS NOT NULL THEN
    UPDATE TEMP SET TERM = pTERM WHERE POL_NUM = pPOL_NUM;
END IF;
IF pTRAN_CD IS NOT NULL THEN
    UPDATE TEMP SET TRANS_CD = pTRANS_CD WHERE POL_NUM = pPOL_NUM;
END IF;
COMMIT;
EXCEPTION
WHEN OTHERS THEN
     NULL;
END;Is it possible to replace multiple IFs from the code to have only one UPDATE statement with condition that update the column only if the passed parameter is not null? In real scenario I have more than 3 columns and I don't want to write many IF blocks.
Please help Gurus!!

Hi,
You certainly don't want to issue separate UPDATE statements for every column; that will be really inefficent.
SQL has several ways to implement IF-THEN-ELSE logic. CASE is the most versatile, but NVL will do everything you need for this job. You can use one of those to set a column to itself (and therefore not really update that column) when appropriate.
For example:
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE TMP_PROC (
pPOL_NUM   IN       NUMBER,
pOED          IN   DATE,
pTERM          IN   NUMBER,
pTRANS_CD IN       CHAR
AS
BEGIN
     UPDATE temp
     SET     oed      = NVL (poed,       oed)
     ,     term      = NVL (pterm,       term)
     ,     trans_cd = NVL (ptrans_cd, trans_cd)
     WHERE     pol_num      = ppol_num;
COMMIT;     -- Maybe
END    tmp_proc;"EXCEPTION WHEN OTHERS THEN NULL" is almost always a bad idea. If there's an error, don't you want to know about it? Shouldn't you at least log a message in a warnings table or something?
Think careflully about whether or not you want to COMMIT every time you call this procedure.
Just as it's inefficient to issue a separate UPDATE statement for every column, it's also inefficient to issue a separate UPDATE statement for every row. If efficiency is important, it should be possible to UPDATE several rows in a single UPDATE statement, using NVL (or CASE, or COALESCE, or NULLIF, or NVL2, or ...).
This was a very well-written question! Thanks for providing the CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements, and such a clear explanation.

I keep getting the little blue box with the question mark

Hi
I have 10.6.7 system software and my safari is 5.0.4
I have called apple twice with this problem already but nothing has helped except for short times.
I have reset safari about one dozen times and when I do I reset the top 7 items and I've emptied the cache in addition just in case. I've also taken my safari preference plist out of my library and trashed it.
And I've run disk utilities many times and restarted my computer. Each thing I do will solve the problem for a short time, even up to a day or more (or less) but then it comes back. For instance on Facebook maybe 1/8th of the thumbnail images have the little blue boxes with the question marks but most don't. I can't figure it out. Sometimes even the iPAD safari gets them too but my firefox doesn't show them and neither does Safari on my eMac.
Yesterday the question marks even showed up in ONE mailing on all 3 computers with the question marks in the blue boxes (meaning my iMac, my eMac and my iPad) but then it just all resolved after a few hours. This does sound like possibly a server problem except today it's happening (in Safari again) only on this iMac in Safari (not firefox) and not on the other two devices.
One more thing, since they changed my radio on the roof for my wireless internet, the 5.8 phone cuts out the internet when I use it. The problem has gotten worse since they changed the radio to the same frequency as the phone, it's a much faster service than the 2.4 radio. I don't know if this is related or not.
Thank you,
Martha

<Contact your ISP.
Is it possible, Carolyn, that this would mainly and almost always be only affecting the iMac and Safari in the iMac if it were a server issue? Right now Safari has more blue boxes with question marks than ever and the eMac and iPad have none. Firefox on the iMac has none also.
I should try a direct connection and by pass the router and see if that makes a difference.
I will contact them tomorrow but I want to get clear in my head first all the facts and possibilities.
Thanks!
Martha

Errors/Glitches with my brand new Equium A200 15I (incl video hardware)

Hi,
I just treated myself to a new laptop last Saturday and have thus only had it for about 3 and a half days so far but I noticed a few small things that I weren't sure were errors/faults or if they were just because its new, such as the fact that sometimes I type things with the keyboard and some of the letters don't appear on screen, which I think is probably more to do with me not typing or pressing heavily enough on the keys rather than anything else, its not happening so much now...the touch pad gets a bit sticky too and it thinks I want to scroll up and down when I want to move the cursor not scroll sometimes but I manage to get it to work, I think most laptops have glitches like this and presumably I could help fix it by calibrating the touch pad(?) I haven't had time to look into that yet though... there are a few other things though and most worryingly just this morning I got a video hardware error message, so now im a fair bit worried/suspicious that there may be a real fault with it and would like to know if this is the case, whether its something I can possibly fix (im no real expert especially with hardware but I can always try downloading and installing updates/fixes and that sort of thing if it'd fix problems).
The main thing which is worrying me most, is that this morning a message suddenly came up on screen, warning me that there had been a video hardware error, yesterday evening, which I clicked on a button I think to load more info. and I took this screen cap of it:-
http://img528.imageshack.us/img528/724/errorscreencapcw1.jpg
I thought it may help to show the actual full message rather than just trying and pasting the info., well ok to be honest I didn't notice it let you copy it to clipboard but oh well (oops lol).
I know there's a topic about a similar error but I didn't want to butt in on that discussion as I presume that should be for that persons error to be discussed, mine may be slightly different I don't know... I followed the instructions given in that discussion and checked the device manager and no hardware faults are showing up there, btw it says in the device manager, under display adapters, that its a Mobile Intel 945GM Express Chipset Family, im sure all the A200 15I laptops have the same card but I thought I'd just clarify that. Incase that wasn't the right thing to check I also checked under 'sound, video and game controllers' (as the error said it was a video hardware error) where it lists the only one as being 'Realtek High Definition Audio' and I checked the properties there, on both under properties it says that the device is working properly, with no signs of any faults...
The thing is, I had read online somewhere that there is some issue with the graphics or video cards. I'd read that they can be glitchy and sometimes break down after the one year. I'd also asked my dad about this and we checked that it was an Intel graphics card that came with this laptop, which it is, and we reckoned that Intel chips should be as reliable as any other brand really... so I didn't think that there should be a problem, though if there is I have until next September to get it fixed before the warranty expires!
What surprises or kind of worries me though, is that the error message was only presented to me this morning. It dates the error as having occured at 19:53pm... I was using it last night and infact I went to have a shower and I put the laptop screen down before I went to shower at around 7:35pm, I presumed that its ok to just close the lid and it would automatically go into hibernate mode or something similar(?) im wondering if that had something to do with it, as I 7:53pm would have been roughly when I came back and lifted the lid/screen up again to use the laptop again... I can only presume, given the time it quotes, thats what caused the fault?
It does give me the option to 'update driver software' and 'scan for hardware change' within the device manager, should I run both or either of those perhaps? is this a common glitch? should I be worried at all etc...
Any help is much appreciated, if more info. is needed then let me know and ill clarify what I can. Also in terms of whats installed, I have quite a few programs, for graphics I have an old version of Paint Shop Pro which I installed yesterday morning, it seemed to install fine, thats Paint Shop Pro 7 from Jasc, I also have some converter programs (for vid files, 3GP and stuff), AVG Virus scan, Spybot Search & Destory, DBPowerAmp, FTP Commander, Quicktime and Real Player, fairly basic stuff like that, nothing much else just my old pics and vid files I transferred from my old XP laptop to this one, in my documents... I don't have any high powered or complicated games or anything else like that installed. Also at the time the video hardware error message states, all that was running when I had the lid down (or before I put the lid down) would have been Windows Live Messenger (though im pretty sure I signed out before putting the lid down) and an IE window, im pretty sure thats all, I wasn't working on anything else just checking the 'net...
There are some other things I've noticed too that I thought perhaps I should mention(?), one thing I've noticed it doing is the screen going blank and then coming back very quickly, alot. I've already asked about this a day or so ago as by then I realised that it was only doing that before loading the 'Windows needs your permission to continue' window/message, which apparently its supposed to do and is something to do with the computer switching from displaying the normal desktop to the secure desktop, which I sort of understand lol.
So I believe that isn't anything to worry about but I have noticed over the lastday or so, that the screen seems to do this more, going blank then coming back again, even when that permission message doesn't show up.
For instance this morning when I first put it on and went to check my home page, I clicked on a link at the bottom of the page or wherever to load another page within the website and the screen went blank for a moment before coming back a second later with the requested page. Is this normal too? or a Vista related glitch, or is there a possibility there may be a glitch with the monitor? im guessing it may be more of a Vista thing but I thought I'd ask here just incase, I decided not to pay for any extra insurance/extended warranty as I'm very careful with my items and take good care of them and so I'm being careful to try and spot any faults early on while they may be fixable under the basic warranty and what-not...
Another thing I've noticed is that to start with, when I pressed and held the 'FN' button, a range of black and white icons appeared on screen which told me which F button(s) to use to make certain adjustments, it still does that when I try it now but at other times, it doesn't show the icons, no matter how long I hold the 'FN' button down. That doesn't really matter since I can tell from the symbols on the keys on the keyboard which buttons to press but its just inconsistent, is there a reason why sometimes the row of icons on screen will show up when I press and hold the 'FN' button and other times it won't show at all?
Also sometimes if I move the cursor right to the top of the screen, those icons load as they seem to always be located at the very top of the screen but sometimes this is a problem, if im trying to click on something else and one of those icons comes up instead... im sure you can switch this option off somehow but should I be worried that the icons don't always show when I press and hold the right button(?) just trying to be cautious!
I think this post is long enough and I can't think what else I could possibly add to help, so I'll leave this here. I don't mean to seem too paranoid but thought it best to mention this stuff incase anyone recognises these glitches/errors and can recommend a quick way to fix any problems before they may develop into anything worse... many thanks in advance for any help with any of these issues!!
(mods let me know if im wrong to include so many things in one topic, I kind of did this quickly and I apologise if im breaking any rules I don't mean to, if possible please break this into a few different topics or I can do this, though ill be at work frm 2-9pm today so might not be back and able to check here until Thursday morning (October 4th))

Hi Isla
Your message is really, very, very long. I think its too long to read it twice ;)
. Regarding all your issues on this notebook well. it looks like you have installed many 3rd party programs and applications. In such case its not easy to say if such issues are software or hardware related. But I presume its software.
I checked your screenshot pic but I have never seen such error message. But it looks like something wrong with the graphic card driver. The message says something about Live Kernel Event
A kernel's services are requested by other parts of the operating system like graphic card driver for example.
In such case I would recommend updating the graphic driver. According to you message its a Intel GPU. So you could check the Intel page for the compatible graphic chip driver.
Regarding the FN key issue;
The Toshiba FlashCard utility controls the FN key functionality. I have read in this forum that this application does not run smoothly and in some cases it causes some issues. The new update should solve the problems. You should check the Toshiba driver page. The FlashCard Utility is a part of the Toshiba Value added package.
So finally one more hint:
You should always check for the Vista updates on the Microsoft page. This OS is not perfected and Microsoft releases very often patches and fixes
Hope it could helps a little bit.
If necessary just ask for more info :)

My computer has some serious problems, my iphoto only shows thumb size pics when I try to open them, i tried to rebuild my files from folders that had the pics in them. originally all the photos has a large delta with a question mark. also I can't back up

my computer has some serious problems, my iphoto only shows only shows thumb size pics when I try to open them, i tried to rebuild my files from folders that had the pics in them. originally all the photos had a large delta with a question mark. also I can't back up the library file because its not there. I went to time machune and tried to find the file but I can't find it or I am looking in the wrong place. I also lost my Idvd file, only have broken chain showing.

Details please
What version of iPhoto and of the OS?
i tried to rebuild my files from folders that had the pics in them.
Exactly what did you do and how did you do it? this ay be the cause of your issue but without details we can n=ony guess
my iphoto only shows only shows thumb size pics when I try to open them,
where do you see htis? In the iPhoto window? what does "try to pen them" exactly mean?
originally all the photos had a large delta with a question mark.
Ok - this usually has a simple solution - do you still have a copy of the library that has this problem?
also I can't back up the library file because its not there.
This makes no sense at all - all of your previous statements indicate that you do have an iPhoto library but have some problems with it
By default your iPHoto library is located in your Pictures folder and is named iPhtoo library - if tha tis not the case the you have moved or renamed it and only you know what you did until you tell us the details
I went to time machune and tried to find the file but I can't find it or I am looking in the wrong place.
Again unless you actually share what and how you are doing thing but continue to simply state abstract problems it is no possible to assist you - details on using Time Machine are here -- http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1427?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US -- and -- http://pondini.org/TM/FAQ.html ---
I also lost my Idvd file, only have broken chain showing.
This would be better addressed in the iDVD forum - but again unlesss yu share detailed information no one can assist

I have a problem with iphoto (have a mac book pro): the icon in the dock appears with a question mark, and the application is gone!!! Can someone tell what's going on? Yesterday I had the same problem with itunes: I downloaded the last version (it's free), but I cannot do the same with iphoto, and more important: I need to know what is happening!!! Please help me!

Applications should not disappear all by themselves.
If they are then that coud indicate serious problems with your hard drive.
Backup everything up as quickly as possible.

Merge text file with condition

I have two text files (report1.txt and report2.txt) that I want to merge with conditions:
- Matching rows that have same "ID" and same "TranVal", will keep only one instance
- Mismatching rows that have same "ID" both rows from 2 file, but column "TranVal" has different value, then the row from report2.txt will replace row in report1.txt
- Any "ID" that exists in one textfile but not the other one, will be copied to the final merged file
report1.txt:
TranDate,ID,TranVal,Comment

Hi,
I just checked Import-Csv option. I will be able to manage this problem if i can get it in CSV format and work with objects, BUT the problem is in my real file
the file-format is different which is not comma-separated, instead have "-" as seperator. To simplify the problem i used comma in my question.
TranDate,ID,TranVal,Comment
061211-9840-40-done
Could
you suggest me if there is any way to convert "-" separators to CSV?

IMac crashed & on reboot I get the folder with a question mark

This happened last night when I went downstairs to put my computer to sleep, it was frozen. On reboot, I would get the chime, but not the apple logo—just the gray screen. Finally, after a minute or two, the folder with a question mark appeared. I tried resetting my PRAM and that didn't seem to work. I tried rebooting from the install disk to repair permissions, but my volume wouldn't even mount. It wasn't there.
Since this was 10:30 at night, I just went to sleep and when I woke up this morning, I turned it on just to see what would happen and lo & behold, it turns on, apple logo appears and ultimately takes me to my login screen. Needless to say, I was thrilled.
However, when I went to login on either my account or my husband's account, neither of our passwords will work now.
I have tried everything—typing the letters one by one. Nothing. How on earth am I supposed to login now? I'm afraid of restarting for fear of that infamous folder with the question mark appearing.
Any suggestions on how I could possibly login? Not only that, why are our passwords no longer working? Our names and avatars show up (they're custom avatars), so something is showing up on my HD, but why don't our passwords work? Weird.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Oh, my specs are below and the only thing that I have done differently is I upgraded to v10.5.6 a few days ago. Otherwise, this never happens. No, I have not installed new RAM or anything like that.
Thanks!!!
Suzanne

Thank you so much for your replies, but I wanted to give you a heads up.
After speaking with tech support yesterday morning, and trying to verify disk via install disk, it was recommended that I bring my computer into Apple to have my HD replaced. I took it to the Genius Bar yesterday and yup, I need my HD replaced. Pain in the butt, but oh well, it could have been worse.
I pretty much back up all of my work (I'm a graphic designer) on a regular basis, but hadn't backed up my recent iTunes purchases, which I was told yesterday I could easily transfer from my iPod back to my "new" iMac—since they're purchased from iTunes. What a relief.
I guess the only thing that's a pain is pretty much all of my bookmarked websites (and there were a lot) and my photos, which I believe for the most part, were backed up.
Regardless, a lesson learned—never take advantage of the fact that your computer is what you think brand new (less than a year and a half old), and thinking it won't die, because you never know. This guy that was sitting next to me at the GB had a brand new MacBook Pro and it died after one week. Ouch!
I am going out right now and purchasing an external HD and having Time Machine back up on a regular basis. What a pain, but a harsh lesson learned.
Thank goodness for Apple Care.
