Request to have subsections in forum for each mo

Many of the MP3 players Creative makes are called Zen.
Searching the forums is very tedious since searching for Zen will pull up almost every post.
Searching for the other models Zen X-Fi or just X-Fi will give you a message: "x" is a very common word and was not included in your search.
The MP3 player forum also has over 550 pages...What normal person can sort through 550 pages.
On top of that there are many titles that don't say anything except "need help" or "have question"
It would be nice if everyone would put the model they are referring to in their title, but I doubt that will happen.
Creative, it might be better to add subsections for the MP3 Player section for each model MP3 player, so users with Zen players can get information from other Zen users, and not vision or X-fi...etc
Of course moving the existing 2800+ posts into the appropriate subsections would costs millions in man-hours, so make an archi've subsection, and move threads with no activiy for 6 months into that section. If a new user asks a question that an archi'ved post would answer, a more experienced user can help point them to the archi'ved post.

Can we put a link to it on this thread?
Lavinog,
The poll is still on, you should see it just below the Announcements on the main forums page. It should show you the results after you have voted.

  • How do we create a a main podcast category with sub-categories similar to the way many bands have subcategories and artwork for each of their albums?

    How does a content producer create a main category with sub-categories similar to the way many bands have subcategories and artwork for each of their albums?

    I think you're talking about an 'Artist Page' in which several podcasts are 'aggregated' into one iTunes Store page?  This Apple Tech note deals with the subject (scroll to the bottom of the page):
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/podcasts/creatorfaq.html
    Although your mention of albums makes me wonder whether there you are talking about albums and songs in the music Library? - podcasts don't come in albums.
    You've also asked this in another forum:
    I have created a feed for our podcasts, but they are all under one umbrella. We would like to have subcategories under one main category.
    'A feed for your podcasts' doesn't make sense - a podcast has one feed (and vice versa). Are you confusing 'episodes' with 'podcasts'? A podcast is a collection of episodes - you can't categorize the episodes separately. The category shows only on the Store page and applies to the entire podcast. The 'Artist' page may again be what you are aiming for - if not perhaps you could post an example of what someone else is doing that you would like to.

  • I have 3 iphones, an ipod touch and an Ipad on the same itunes account.  should I have a different account for each device?  If so how do I get all my purchases, like music on all the devices?

    I have 3 iphones, an ipod touch and an Ipad on the same itunes account.  should I have a different account for each device?  If so how do I get all my purchases, like music on all the devices?

    You can sync as many devices as you want to the same iTunes account, there is no limit. You can have the same content on each device or different content, the choice is yours. iTunes will keep everything straight, by device, including separate backups. I'd suggest giving each device a unique name, to make things easier.

  • I bought an iphone for my daughter and was unaware that we should have a seperate appleid for each.Now we share an id and get eachothers contacts and face time calls. I recently bought another iphone and want to change ids without loosing items and music.

    I bought an iphone for my daughter and was unaware that we should have a seperate appleid for each.Now we share an id and get eachothers contacts and face time calls. I recently bought another iphone and want to change ids without loosing items and music. How do I do this? The new phone is a 5.

    All purchases are always going to be associated to the ID that was used to purchase/download them.
    If you create an ID for your daughter you will want to check everywhere it is used to make sure you are not sharing messages and stuff. These would be iTunes/app store, iCloud, iMessages, and FaceTime.
    Go thru settings and find all mention of your ID.

    No... u can click on your purchases holding down the option key and it will allow you to download lion again
    copy this from your applications folder to your other mac's application folder and just click install
    that's what i did.

  • Still have to change Context for EACH ODI Object

    Correct me if I'm wrong - Even though ODI touts the ability to have one set of code for various physical environments, it doesn't make moving from say DEV to TEST any much easier.
    What I mean to say is, even if I create 'InterfaceA' under the Logical Schema 'Phase1' and my Context is 'DEV' pointing to the Physical Schema for 'Development Data Server'; when I want to chance the Context to say 'TEST', I have to go into 'InterfaceA' and make that change to Context 'TEST'.
    Now, I have to do this for 'InterfaceA' through 'InterfaceXY' and so on for each Package, Scenario, Procedure and so on.
    Point being, there's not centralized mechanism to change all the Contexts for all the objects - therefore this functionality is nothing great.
    Might as well copy all the objects to a New Repository and change the Contexts there. Have a Master Rep for each DEV, TEST and PROD.

    What you need to do is ensure that you don't explicitly specify the context inside your ODI objects such as the interfaces. There is a setting called Execution Context which is what should be selected. Then when you execute your ODI scenarios you choose the execution context and this will be applied to all objects in the execution cycle

    DDL for DimTime
    CREATE TABLE DimTime(
    TimeID NUMBER(6) PRIMARY KEY,
    Year NUMBER(4) NOT NULL,
    Season VARCHAR2(20));
    I have the following analysis request to perform on this data mart:
    Top 5 clients by value of ticket sale for each season
    For this requirement I came up with the following query:
    SELECT * FROM
    (SELECT FacTIC.ClientID, DimCLI.Name, SUM(SumtotalAmount) SumTotalAmount, DimTIM.Season
    FROM FactTicketPurchase FacTIC, DimClient DimCLI, DimTime DimTIM
    WHERE FacTIC.ClientID = DimCLI.ClientID
    AND FacTIC.TimeID = DimTIM.TimeID
    AND Season = 'Spring'  AND Year = 2010
    GROUP BY Season, FacTIC.ClientID, DimCLI.Name
    ORDER BY Season ASC, SumTotalAmount DESC)
    WHERE rownum <=5;
    As you can see, in line 06 of the above query, I am explicitly specifying the season for the query to return.
    However what I would like to do is just one query that could autocratically go through the seasons and years available in the time dimension in a fashion similar to a FOR-EACH statement. This way, if we get more years added to the time dimension, we wouldn't have to amend the query.
    Is this possible?
    Regards,
    P.

    I think I fixed it!
    The trick was to look into the r_num value. As soon as I added it to my query I started to see how r_num was being calculated and I realised that I had to add Season to my partition, right after Year.
    SELECT Year, Season, TotalAmount, Name
    FROM (
       SELECT   DimCLI.Name
       ,        DimTIM.Year
       ,        DIMTIM.Season
       ,        SUM(FacTIC.SumTotalAmount) TotalAmount
       ,        RANK() OVER (PARTITION BY Year, Season
                             ORDER BY SUM(FacTIC.SumTotalAmount) DESC
                            ) AS r_num
       FROM     FactTicketPurchase FacTIC
       ,        DimClient DimCLI
      ,         DimTime DimTIM
       WHERE    FacTIC.ClientID = DimCLI.ClientID
       AND      FacTIC.TimeID = DimTIM.TimeID
       GROUP BY DimTIM.Year
       ,        DimTIM.Season
       ,        DimCLI.Name
    WHERE r_num <= 5 -- Need to amend this line on my data sample to show 2 rows.
    ORDER BY Year, Season, TotalAmount DESC;
    Looking at my data sample, I got the following:
    YEAR
    SEASON
    TOTALAMOUNT
    CLIENTID

  • How to have a unique value for each record??

    could any 1 help me out in this...
    I want to have a column name 'Order No' which should be unique.
    How to generate a unique value for each record.??

    could any 1 help me out in this...
    I want to have a column name 'Order No' which should be unique.
    How to generate a unique value for each record.?? If you are using SQL PLUS to create the table try something like
    this:
    CREATE TABLE ORDER_TEST (
    ORD_NO NUMBER (8) NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY,
    ORDERDATE DATE,
    CUSTID NUMBER (8) NOT NULL,
    SHIPDATE DATE,
    TOTAL NUMBER (8,2) CONSTRAINT TOTAL_ZERO CHECK
    (TOTAL >= 0),
    CONSTRAINT ORD_FOREIGN_KEY FOREIGN KEY (CUSTID) REFERENCES
    CUSTOMER (CUSTID),
    CONSTRAINT ORD_UNIQUE UNIQUE (ORD_NO)
    -- or a simpler table example
    DROP TABLE ORDER_TEST;
    CREATE TABLE ORDER_TEST (
    ORD_NO NUMBER (8),
    ORDERDATE DATE,
    CUSTID NUMBER (8) NOT NULL,
    SHIPDATE DATE,
    TOTAL NUMBER (8,2) CONSTRAINT TOTAL_ZERO CHECK
    (TOTAL >= 0),
    CONSTRAINT ORD_UNIQUE UNIQUE (ORD_NO)
    note: ORD_NO can also be a primary key
    If you are doing the INSERT during runtime from a form first
    create a sequence in SQL PLUS to handle the ORD_NO value:
    Create SEQUENCE ORDERNO_UNIQUEVAL_sqnc
    START WITH 000001
    NOMAXVALUE
    NOCACHE;
    and reference it as the ORD_NO parameter in your INSERT
    statement:
    ORDERNO_UNIQUEVAL_sqnc.NEXTVAL
    note: to maintain data integrity you must use the sequence
    everytime you insert a new order to table. To start a new
    sequence drop the sequence and re-create it with whatever "START
    WITH" value you want.
    Hope this helps

  • Tax Accounts - Is it necessary to have separate tax acct. for each state

    I am new at this:
    Is it necessary to have separate AR/AP/ account for each tax jurisdiction like state county etc?\
    Or do the sales tax reports for payments in SAP produce outstanding taxes per jurisdiction.
    I would prefer only one Sales Tax account and hope to have SAP produce the taxes due per jurisdiction.
    Mike

    Thanks Suda.
    So I only need to setup two tax accounts:
    1.  One tax account for tracking the AR taxes
    2.  One tax account for tracking the AP taxes
    So, to report the taxes to the different tax jurisdictions, SAP should be able to break then down individually for us to pay them.
    I am new at this ... so please be patient.
    Mike

  • Why do applications have to be packaged for each distribution?

    Hi,
    Sorry this is probably a stupid question, but i don't understand why it's necessary for each application to be packaged (and patched) by each distribution.
    Example: (as i understand it) Mozilla Firefox. Arch has it's own version derived from Mozilla's, and so do the other distributions with their own variations.
    Is anyone able to explain how this works and why it's done this way?
    Bonus points: If anyone has a link to an article explaining in detail, would be very interesting to read

    When packaging software there are a bunch of questions you're facing. Many have been mentioned before.
    This starts with the compile-time configuration regarding which parts of the software should be compiled/used, eg some libraries can use different backends and you can only choose one. Sometimes it's even a matter of licensing. Some distros like to enable experimental features if they don't break the rest of the software, some let you choose (like gentoo's useflags mentioned above).
    Filesystem layouts differ: Some prefer /usr/lib/pkgconfig, some /usr/share/pkgconfig; some like /usr/libexec, some don't, some (eg FreeBSD, which isn't linux but with regard to package management faces the same questions) use /usr/local for packages. Some distinguish between binary-only packages by putting them into /opt, some don't. Some actually have /bin, /usr/bin and /usr/local/bin as separate directories
    Or you might go a completely different way, too, nobody's forcing you to stick to "standards". I'd also like to point to haiku, also not a linux distro, but there too you have most of the same software packages available, which have to follow different directions there, too.
    Default configurations: Some get patched (themed for the distro or for other reasons), some don't.
    Init systems: Gentoo (at least last time I checked) defaults to openrc. Most people do not provide openrc scripts in their source repositories, so the packager is responsible for creating these.
    Gentoo actually brings up another thing: it allows for some packages to have multiple versions installed, and you can use them explicitly and/or switch your default with `eselect`. (It probably does more than that, I haven't used gentoo in years.) For this of course you need to package your software in a certain way. Eg put your binaries and libraries into a separate folder and symlink them to their desired locations, rather than installing them there directly, since they'd be overwritten by the other versions of the package...

Maybe you are looking for
