Rezounds many technical issues

I have had my HTC Rezound for right at a year. I have replaced the SIM card twice, had the phone replaced once (in September 2012) and now it's spazing again. I now have issues where the screen will come up as a split duplicate screen, or it will go all fuzzy like it can't figure out what it should be displaying. When you press the power button to turn off the screen and press it again to bring it back up it clears it. Also, the volume button will no longer change the ringer volume, it will only change the media volume. I shut it off to reboot it and I get the message that this phone needs a SIM card to work (which it has) and then it goes away and finishes the boot process. I have not downloaded any new apps in over a month. My phone is in an Otterbox case and I'm careful with it....can someone please tell me if you are having the same problems and if I can fix it??

Kiwichik, we don't want your phone to keep spazzing out and getting fuzzy! Let's see what's going on. First, I would not recommend taking your phone apart while still under warranty, as it would void the warranty. Does the screen turn fuzzy after using any certain tasks or actions? Do you have an antivirus application installed? If so, please uninstall. When you adjust the ringer volume, are you on the main screen? Please boot the phone into safe mode http://bit.ly/UveVwG to see if these issues persist. If not, then it may be one of the apps that were previously installed. If the issue persists, I recommend completing a factory reset http://bit.ly/Q166KZ.
Let me know if you're still having problems.

Hi Marcelo,
Your particular configuration is not supported by our product out of the box - we require a unicode system.
What you can do is try out the installation using a transport that holds our RFCs, or alternatively, use an older install such as STVN 1.1 Orgchart, which does not require Ehp 4 specific items or Nakisa's ABAP add-On.
What applications are you installing?
Thanks

X1 Technical Issues

Welcome to the new "X1 Technical Issues" thread. We ask that you post all of your X1 related technical issues (Audio, Set Top Box, etc.) here.
Below, you will find links to X1 Help articles that may assist you in resolving your technical issue:
Xfinity TV: Basic Troubleshooting

Thank you in advance for posting!

Like many new X1 customers, you are having signal problems. What worked for the older legacy boxes doesn't always work with X1. X1 needs clean and stable signal both incoming and outgoing.
Call in to Comcast and get a service visit set up to have your signals looked at...

Temporary technical issues

This is disappointing. The app was fine and streaming happily to my Apple TV during the match build up, but about 1 minute into the game it suddenly stops, and trying to log back in to the app causes a "Cannot connect to BT Sport. Sorry we are having some temporary technical issues. Please try again later. (ID004)" error.
Same error on another apple device.
Have the servers gone down, or are too many people trying to watch?
Not a great start. I wonder if it will come back online before half-time?

Yep, after signing up last night and testing the online player successfully earlier, it comes to the game now and all I am getting is either an error message or I am just being 'logged out' and bombed back to a log in screen again!

Technical Issues Message When Trying To Submit My Podcast Feed

I have been trying to submit my podcast feed to the itunes store since monday and every time I get a message saying there is a technical issue and please try again later.
I sent an email off to apple to find out about this and options offered in the reply haven't worked either! I have had the podcast on itunes before but the site I was hosting it at back in the day (Mevio) decided to remove everything on its site, hence my original feed sat doing nothing and was then removed from the iTunes store, I have recently found a site that offered everything I was looking for (Podcasts.com) and signed up.
I posted my first show on Monday but now I have the issue of iTunes constantly telling me there is a Technical Issue and to try again later which I have repeatedly.
I even tried running my feed through feedburner and still nothing, I have changed the title of both the podcast and the show name like was suggested in the email from apple and still it wouldn't take. Its starting to get on my nerves now since I want to get my podcast back on iTunes.
Can anyone offer up any advice or suggestions on how I can sort this out!?

The feed can be successfully subscribed to manually in iTunes. There are a few minor issues with the feed which I wouldn't have expected to cause a problem, but the Store can be more touchy than the application.
You should have this as the first line in your feed:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
You have far too many words in the 'keywords' tag in your episode - the maximum is twelve.
Your 'itunes:duration' tag reads
<itunes:duration>81</itunes:duration>
which is meaningless, though the Store might read it as 81 seconds and play only that amount of your episode. It should have the duration in the format hh:mm:ss, e.g. 0:26:42
I wouldn't have expected any of these to be fatal, though you should address them. It may be that you've hit a glitch in the Store - it's been known - so when you've corrected the errors try again.

TS3297 I keep getting the error 306 cannot connect to the iTunes Network when downloading songs on iTunes. I've tried all the troubleshooting steps from the forums and my technical issues are still unresolved. I have Windows 7. Please help!!

I keep getting the error 306 cannot connect to the iTunes Network when downloading songs on iTunes. I've tried all the troubleshooting steps from the forums and my technical issues are still unresolved. I have Windows 7. Please help!!

iTunes Store loads partially or returns "Error 306" or "Error 10054"
Proxies, parental control settings and software, security or filtering software, or a bad iTunes Store cache can cause this.
To address proxies, Remove Internet Options proxy settings ( http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1490 ) and connect to the Internet without a proxy.
To reset iTunes Store cache:
In iTunes, choose iTunes > Preferences (Mac) or Edit > Preferences (PC).
Click the Advanced tab.
Click the "Reset cache" button.
Click OK and see if the issue is resolved.
Adjust Parental Controls in iTunes:
Open iTunes.
Access iTunes preferences:
On a Mac: From the iTunes menu, choose Preferences.
On a Windows PC: From the Edit menu, choose Preferences.
Click the Parental Controls tab.
Remove restrictions on Parental Controls.
For more information on parental controls or content filtering software, see iTunes 10.5 for Windows: May see performance issues and blank iTunes Store.

Is there an update to iOS 6? I've been having several technical issues since the upgrade. Uncontrolled zoom of the entire screen, Siri taking 25 seconds to respond and not recognizing names, locking up of the phone. All requiring a reset.

I would restore with backup and if that doesn't fix it try as new

Many forms issues in one spool

Hello,
Can we have many forms issues(smartforms) in one spool?
I need to send one print stream / PCL format not multiple spools.
Best Regards,

Hello everybody,
Thanks for your replies.
I found another way to resolve this situation.
For many invoices who are saved in nast. We initialize no_dialog to space.
After in the loop at the invoices : for the first one no_close to 'X' and the last one with no_close parameter to space.
After the call FM(Smartform) we pass 'X' to no_open .
I hope that answered for all.
ls_control_param-no_dialog = space.
LOOP AT t_nast INTO nast.
    AT FIRST.
ls_control_param-no_close = 'X'.
ENDAT.
AT LAST.
Close spool file
ls_control_param-no_close = space.
ENDAT.
    PERFORM processing.
ENDLOOP.

Is it possible to have a technical issue addressed...

For several years I have suffered with intermittent problems with my family's BT SMTP Mail services. Similar to another recent post, my SMTP mail is blocked on password/ID grounds even though I know the Password and ID are correct (they work on Webmail and I have made no changes to my PC, iPad or iPhone) Sometimes I can access via WiFi only, and sometimes access via 3G only - it varies, but the problem seems to be that the access is blocked because it appears to be coming from a novel route.
The support from BT is laughable - ranging from "we only support Webmail", "If Webmail works then the whole BT system is perfect so go away" to suggestions to change various port settings, none of which succeed permanently.
There is a problem with BT's SMTP service but they don't want to see it, and don't want to help. Does anyone know if it ever possible to get BT to look seriously a technical issue ?

For this problem BT in general do not give proper support.
I copy below my post on another thread.
There are several reasons why you get password rejected messages however based on the information you have supplied I have the following observations and advice.
1. The failure message incorrect in that your username and password is likely to be correct but is being rejected for another reason.
2. The most likely cause is some form of timeout.
3. Providing you have a reasonably fast connection the timeout is likely to be because your account is being accessed by two or more of your devices at the same time.
4. To stop this happening you need to do the following.
a) Do not use webmail unless you have to.
b) If you do you use webmail make sure that you sign out when finished.
c) Make sure that all your devices do not check for emails automatically but require manual intervention.
d) Use POP instead of IMAP in email clients.
e) Make sure smartphones and tablets have Email accounts Push "off "and Fetch data "manually".
5. If you have done all of the above and still get a failure then logging in and out of webmail will usually clear the problem. YOU DO NOT NEED TO CHANGE YOUR PASSWORD.

Is it a technical issue?

Adobe recently I wanted to download the tutorial files for aftereffect cc from (https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/learn/start/aftereffects.html) but unfortunately the file which i got from the side (that have to be tutorial files) contained a movie and readme txt but not the lesson files i think there is technical issue.... what should i do to get the files....

I currently use Firefox 8.0.1 and Aol mail. I have Windows XP SP3. When I try to open my email I get this message: "We encountered a technical issue. Please try again." After continually trying, after awhile it does open. I don't have this problem on IE.

DVR Technical Issues

I've found two technical issues with the HD-DVR.
1) If you click "INFO" while watching an On Demand selection, it will give you an info bar. Pressing info again (as you do when watching TV), will cause the DVR to Reboot and your On Demand selection will not appear in the "Recently Viewed", leaving you no choice but to re=order and fast forward to find your place.
2) If you are recording a selection and also viewing that selection on the recorder and then a second selection starts recording, the current program will skip to "live" and you will be unable to view the material you previously recorded.
On a personal note, has anyone found a less helpful technical support system than that employed by Verizon? The auto response is useless and the time required to speak to a representative is unbelievable!
Old Bill

This is not just a Verizon issue. All providers of the DVR and external drive combination have had to encode them to work together as a pair because of the copyright laws. Those laws were written before the evolution of cloud storage, and I suspect that the laws will be amended to allow providers to wed the equipment to a person's account rather than a piece of equipment. When I was with DISH, they had the same limitation, and you had to pay $40 for the privilege of marrying the hard drive to the DVR ( I guess that was for the marriage license). Providers will develope this capability at different paces, some quicker than others.

Many Specific Issues with Mac Performance after Yosemite Upgrade

I have a MacBook Pro Retina 15”--Late 2013
Ever since I upgraded to Yosemite, I have experienced the following problems:
Preview locking up after I attempt to open a document or photo
None of my files will be visible in certain views (e.g., Download Folder will appear empty)
Trash and Junk Folders will disappear in Mail
Spotlight will not search for anything when I attempt to use it
Google apps (e.g., Search, News, Gmail, Maps) will usually not open initially when I try to open them in Safari—will just time out with a message that website will not respond… If I close out the tab, then try to re-open it, it usually works. I also tried them out in Chrome, and they seem to load with no problems.
Initially I contacted Apple support. They had me delete several cache files, ran disk utility, etc. This seemed to help for a while, but problem returned.
The next step: I performed a clean installation of Yosemite. Eventually, the symptoms returned.
Last step: I took my computer to the Genius Bar at a local Apple Store. The tech ran several diagnostics and found no problems.
Finally, the Genius Bar tech. asked me how often I shut down my Mac; I told him ‘not very often’. His recommendation was that I restart my Mac every once in a while… (not specific on frequency)….
Restarting it every couple of days seems to be the only thing that works…
Any help with this problem would be greatly appreciated.

1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve the problem. But with the aid of the test results, the solution may take a few minutes, instead of hours or days.
The test works on OS X 10.7 ("Lion") and later. I don't recommend running it on older versions of OS X. It will do no harm, but it won't do much good either.
Don't be put off by the complexity of these instructions. The process is much less complicated than the description. You do harder tasks with the computer all the time.
2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. Backup is always a must, and when you're having any kind of trouble with the computer, you may be at higher than usual risk of losing data, whether you follow these instructions or not.
There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. As I wrote above, it changes nothing. It doesn't send or receive any data on the network. All it does is to generate a human-readable report on the state of the computer. That report goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. If you prefer, you can act on it yourself without disclosing the contents to me or anyone else.
You should be wondering whether you can believe me, and whether it's safe to run a program at the behest of a stranger. In general, no, it's not safe and I don't encourage it.
In this case, however, there are a couple of ways for you to decide whether the program is safe without having to trust me. First, you can read it. Unlike an application that you download and click to run, it's transparent, so anyone with the necessary skill can verify what it does.
You may not be able to understand the script yourself. But variations of it have been posted on this website thousands of times over a period of years. The site is hosted by Apple, which does not allow it to be used to distribute harmful software. Any one of the millions of registered users could have read the script and raised the alarm if it was harmful. Then I would not be here now and you would not be reading this message. See, for example, this discussion.
Nevertheless, if you can't satisfy yourself that these instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
4. Here's a summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed:
☞ Copy a line of text in this window to the Clipboard.
☞ Paste into the window of another application.
☞ Wait for the test to run. It usually takes a few minutes.
☞ Paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page.
The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. You don't need to copy a second time. Details follow.
5. Try to test under conditions that reproduce the problem, as far as possible. For example, if the computer is sometimes, but not always, slow, run the test during a slowdown.
You may have started up in "safe" mode. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
6. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this section doesn’t apply. Don't log in as root.
7. The script is a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, though you may not see all of it in the browser window, and you can then copy it. If you try to select the line by dragging across the part you can see, you won't get all of it.
Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:

Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
8. Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
Click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste by pressing command-V. The text you pasted should vanish immediately. If it doesn't, press the return key.
9. If you see an error message in the Terminal window such as "Syntax error" or "Event not found," enter
exec bash
and press return. Then paste the script again.
10. If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. If you don't know the password, or if you prefer not to enter it, just press return three times at the password prompt. Again, the script will still run.
If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for a password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator privileges.
11. The test may take a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. While it's running, a series of lines will appear in the Terminal window like this:
[Process started]
 Part 1 of 8 done at … sec
 Part 8 of 8 done at … sec
 The test results are on the Clipboard.
 Please close this window.
[Process completed]
The intervals between parts won't be exactly equal, but they give a rough indication of progress. The total number of parts may be different from what's shown here.
Wait for the final message "Process completed" to appear. If you don't see it within about ten minutes, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, press the key combination control-C or command-period to stop it and go to the next step. You'll have incomplete results, but still something.
12. When the test is complete, or if you stopped it because it was taking too long, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
At the top of the results, there will be a line that begins with the words "Start time." If you don't see that, but instead see a mass of gibberish, you didn't wait for the "Process completed" message to appear in the Terminal window. Please wait for it and try again.
If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
13. When you post the results, you might see an error message on the web page: "You have included content in your post that is not permitted," or "You are not authorized to post." That's a bug in the forum software. Please post the test results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.
14. This is a public forum, and others may give you advice based on the results of the test. They speak for themselves, not for me. The test itself is harmless, but whatever else you're told to do may not be. For others who choose to run it, I don't recommend that you post the test results on this website unless I asked you to.

Many-to-many performance issue

I realize that many-to-many joins have been discussed before (yes, I looked through many threads), but I'm having a slight variation on the issue. Our data warehouse has been functioning for a couple of years now, but we're now experiencing a dramatic degradation in report performance. I'll tell you everything I know and what I've tried. My hope is that someone will have an idea that hasn't occurred to me yet.
The troubling data links deal with accounts and account_types. Each transaction will have one account, but each account can have multiple account_types and each account_type is made up of multiple accounts. It ends up looking like this:
Transaction_cube --< account_dimension >--< account_type_table
Given the many-to-many relationship between account and account_type, this is the only architecture I could come up with that will maintain data integrity in the transaction cube.
I know that this is the cause of the performance issues because the reports run normally when this is removed. The volume of data obviously increases over time, but the problem appeared very suddenly -- not a gradual degradation that one would expect from a volume issue. The cube is partitioned by year and we're a little below last year's growth.
The other fact to throw in is that the account_type table did increase in size by an additional 30% when we first noticed the problem. However, the business was able to go back and remove half of the account_types (unused types) so now the table has fewer rows than it had before we noticed the problem (~15k rows in the account_type table).
We have tried pinning the table so that it remain in memory, but that did not help. I tried creating a materialized view combining accounts and account_types with a similar lack of improvement. I've tried adding indexes, but there is still a full-table scan. All database objects are analyzed nightly after the data load is completed.
I'm fresh out of ideas at this point. Any suggestions and/or ideas would be greatly appreciated.

I've thought about that. What it would mean would be aprox. 20 additional columns for each of the different account_types. Unfortunately, that would also mean that all the reports that use the account_type would have to have a condition:
WHERE acct_type1='Income Stmt." OR acct_type2='Income Stmt." OR ....
Since the account_types are not set up in a hierarchy and there must be only one row for account, I'm not sure that this is a feasible solution.
Thank you for the suggestion.
