RSNAST00 Concern?

Hi..
I want to know how RSNAST00 calls the respective function module in the ABAB Coding.?
For Example in case of say any Delivery Document Number, when we run RSNAST00 for it giving the proper message type(say in our case LD00 with ALE as a medium)then at what point of time is the function module (say IDOC_OUTPUT_DELIVRY)called in that program. I didnt see a direct call of the function module as such in the program.
I hope I have made myself clear in framing a question.
Thanks.

Hi Subhash,
As most of reply said, RSNAST00 will call the subroutine ALE_PROCESSING or EDI_PROCESSING in the program RSNASTED. But this is link is defined in your message determination .. If you know place where you maintain the Program name script name for Printing the documents with output type.. it is the same place you maintian the subroutine and program (i.e. ALE_PROCESSING or EDI_PROCESSING in the program RSNASTED based on the output medium; A- Ale, 6-EDI).
So when you run RSNAST00, it basically selects all the output records ready for procesing from NAST table based on the seletion parameters you have give. From there it identifies the program and subroutine to be called, calls that particular subroutine (for printing it will be your ENTRY subroutine in Driver program) with the Nast record. RSNAST00 Job is done once it calls the subroutine..
Now the Subroutine being called takes the job of printing/faxing/ creating & sending the iDoc.
In case of ALE/EDI, your ALE_PRocessing & EDI_procssing routine determines the FM to be called in the following way.
It picks up the Message partner from the NAST record and check whether there is partner profile defined for that in WE20. If not defined error.. if defined, it will determine the FM to be called based on information given in the Output control tab and processed code give there (Process code is linked to your FM that fill the iDoc). Then it passes the iDoc internal table to ALE layer for further processing which stores that on DB and sends it our bsed on the WE20 configuration..
Hope this gives you the clear picture about how the iDoc is generated from output control.

Nagaraju Chidurupalli.

Is it safe/okay to use RSNAST00 program in a user-exit?

Hi Experts,
I got a business requirement and its:
After SAVEing the sales order......by using the user-exit USEREXIT_SAVE_DOCUMENT I have to trigger custom IDOC (currently its in the system and using for some other application) outbound direction to XYZ logical system.
But, the functional spec is asking me to to use RSNAST00 program in the above said user-exit.
So pls clarify,
1) Is it safe to use this RSNAST00 program in the user-exits?
2) If so, Wht is the best/safest approach to use it? is it by using SUBMIT AND RETURN statement? or do we have any other?
3) Actually, guess this is not good approach (achieving via ABAP workbench/triggering IDOC outbound by custom code of user-exit) to meet this functionality.......its a configuration task need to done by functional guy.

Thank you Vinod.
If thats the ONLY concern, then I can write a seperate FM, where in I will use SUBMIT RSNAST00 AND RETURN statements, and I will call this FM in a SEPERATE / BACKGROUND TASK, which works in a seperate LWU.
Pls. shade some light
Thank you

HT5193 I want to use Apple TV in a hospital classroom setting and IT is concerned about security (patient information). Is this an issue and how can I put them at ease?

I want to use the Apple TV to create an interactive white board type setting in the classroom. I appreciate the help.

My first reply was probably a bit vague but it's not clear exactly what you're planning to do.
Anyhow first off, remember this is simply a user to user forum and is not an Apple staffed technical advice area so no one here can accept any responsibility for the implementation you attempt.
If you intend to do anything that could potentially compromise patient confidentiality you must get appropriate advice from suitable agencies including your IT dept and probably Apple itself. Depending which country you are in you will be subject to local healthcare laws aimed at protecting patient confidentiality.
As users we know next to nothing about AppleTV under the hood security.
AppleTV runs a version of iOS just like iPhones and iPads.
There is no antivirus/firewall software for iOS as it's already pretty locked down.
That does not mean it is 100% secure as nothing is, and all these devices can potentially be hacked.
AppleTV itself does not store any content permanently, losing data when it's unplugged, so that is probably not an issue unless someone was going to attempt a forensic style data rescue from the internal components.
If your IT dept allows iPhones or iPads on the network then in principle it's the same, and in many ways less of an issue as it doesn't support 3rd party apps, only a small selection of features from Apple and selected partners.
I assume for your whiteboard plan this would entail using a touch screen like an iPad for mirroring. Be aware that fullscreen mirroring will send a 4:3 image to the display as the iPad screen is 4:3 not 16:9 (widescreen).
You need to work with your IT dept to assess the feasibility of what you want to do - unless you need internet access, to me it would seem a standalone local network without internet connectivity might remove some concerns about devices connecting to the main hospital network. Maybe their concern is simply wifi and possible interecption of data sent to the AppleTV - this would likely be a proprietary screen sharing format for Airplay but it could still potentially be intercepted on wifi though I can't really see why anyone would want to as the data would probably be pretty useless to them unless this was a specific attempt to capture Airplay streams and people knew what they were doing and had compromised your wifi security.
Good luck.

Impact of Addition of New Value Fields in the existing Op. Concern-COPA

Hi All,
Want to know the steps of adding new value fields in the existing operating concern in COPA?
What is the overall impact of addition of New Value fields in the running Operating Concern?
How do we test the addition of new value fields?
Is the addition of New Value fields to the running Operating Concern advisable?
Your support and advice is highly anticipated and appreciated.
Thanks & Regards
9819528669
Ohter details are as follows...
VALUE FIELDS : Defines the Structure of your Costs & Revenues. (Op. Concern 120 Value Fields)
1)     The client requires three new value fields to be created. Value fields for :
-     Other Airport Charges - International
-     Cargo Commission Cost
-     Personal Cost (Direct)
2)     What are the Steps involved in creation of new value fields? The steps are :
1)     Before creating new value field we need to check whether we can use already existing UNUSED value fields (There are 62 value fields created for the op concern 1000, in production the value fields TBUL1-L7 i.e. to be used (I assume) screen shot1 provided. My predecessor has used value field VV291, VV292, VV380 original description being TBUL3, TBUL4, and TBUL1. I believe he has changed the description in development client and created a transport request ref screen shot 2)
2)     You can create new value field thru T-Code KEA6 (4-5 characters beginning with VV) u2013 My predecessor has reused the value fields originally created he has not created new one I believe. please provide give your comments)
3)     Specify whether this field is for Currency or Quantity (currency defined in attribute of op concern and quantity defined by its own field u2013 unit of measure) u2013 My predecessor has configured the three value fields as Currency.
4)     Describe how the values in this field are aggregated over characteristics. (SUM, LAS, AVG) u2013 My predecessor has aggregated all the three value fields as SUM and they are in Active status.
5)     After the value field is created you have to add the value field (active status only) to the operating concern by Editing the Data Structure. (I guess this is done in the next step)
6)     Assign newly created Value fields to the Operating Concern u2013 T-Code KEA0 (In development client the value fields are assigned to the op concern 1000 refer screen shot 3. In the production client also those three value fields exist (does it mean they are assigned? your comments please.) As they have the original description TBUL3, TBUL4, and TBUL1 refer screen shot 4.
7)     After the Data Structure is defined you need to activate them. (creates plan vs actual database) u2013 Go to the data structure tab and Choose Activate. The status in dev client is Active with correct description but in the production client it is Active with the OLD description. After addition of the value field you need to regenerate the operating concern. T-Code KEA0 u2013 right?
8)     Condition Types are assigned to Value Fields? Donu2019t know u2013 T-Code KE45 (I think this is NOT required in our case u2013 Please give your comments)
9)     Define and Assign Valuation Strategy u2013 Cost assigned to Value fields u2013 T-Code KE4U (I think this is also NOT required in our case)
10)     Define PA Transfer Structure for Settlement u2013 T-Code KEI1 (This step is crucial u2013 I think I have to to include newly created value fields, but am not aware how to do it and what is the connectivity or what happens after this is done)
Note: My predecessor has created a Transport Request No# KEDK902167 for the value fields created by him.
3)     Whether my predecessor has performed all the steps for value field creation? How to test it and check that?
4)     If yes then, Do I need to perform additional configuration or can I proceed to transport it to Production?
5)     What is COPA Allocation Structure & PA Transfer Structure? Where and Why It is used?
6)     What are the different methods of cost and revenue allocations in SAP?
7)     I have checked the status of the value fields across clients, It is as followsu2026
     Value Field     Value Field For     Description     Development      Quality     Production
1     VV291     Other Airport Charges International     TBUL3     Exists      DNE     DNE
2     VV292     Cargo Commission Cost     TBUL4     Exists      DNE     DNE
3     VV380     Personal Cost u2013 Direct     TBUL1     Exists      DNE     DNE
#DNE : Does Not Exist (assumed since the description given to value field is not the same as in development client.)

HI sree,
ofter creation value field and saving that time reqwest number appeare copy the reqwest number and go through the se01 select that reqwest number select and transport click the truck symbole, and draft a mail to basis guyw.

Info about a new value field in a live operating concern

Hi Team,
I'm working on 4.7 system.
I have a live Operating Concern with 120 value fields in "Active" Status.
Some of them never have been posted until now. I need a new "Quantity type" value field, but I can't create another one because I already have 120.
In addition, the value fields that have not been used until now are "Amount type" ones.
Is it possible to delete or modify one of these value files and create another "Quantity type" one, considering that Operating Concern is productive? And how can I do it? What kind of problems could I have?
Best Regards,
Gio

Hi Gio,
Good evening and greetings,
Please go through the SAP Note No.21207 on Deleting a Characteristic / Value Field from an active Operating Concern. This should clarify your questions.
Please reward points if the note is of some use to you.
Thanking you,
With kindest regards

Security concern/ application concerns and procedures for zeroing all data

Hi,
I've looked through the posts and can't find the answers to my questions so here goes:
I've had a MacBook Pro for about a year, and I may have to return it to my employer. In an effort to prepare the machine and make sure my information can't be accessed once it is returned I have read that the proper thing to do is zero all data (I have read the MAC how-to page on the process).
I was told that zeroing all data will remove my files and access to trashed items after I give it back to my employer, but I have a few concerns:
1. I have an external hard drive with more than enough room to transfer my files, but what exactly does everyone mean by "all my files"? Just my personal files in the various applications like iPhoto, iTunes, and even My Documents, or are there others as well?
2. Although I have the DVD/CD that came with the machine, there were additional software applications installed by the administrator at my place of work (Office - Power Point etc). Do these things get removed when I zero data or will they still be there?
3. Lastly, is it true that you should zero up to three times to make sure your data is inaccessible? I know it will take about 24 hours to do approx. 20 gb's....
Thanks so much in advance,
Goldilox

I have an external hard drive with more than enough room to transfer my files, but what exactly does everyone mean by "all my files"?
Well what do you mean by all your files? Usually all your things will be in your home folder, so as long as you have enough space to contain that, you'd be okay.
Although I have the DVD/CD that came with the machine, there were additional software applications installed by the administrator at my place of work (Office - Power Point etc). Do these things get removed when I zero data or will they still be there?
Zeroing data happens at the drive device level, so everything on that volume will be gone. It's akin to formatting.
Lastly, is it true that you should zero up to three times to make sure your data is inaccessible? I know it will take about 24 hours to do approx. 20 gb's....
It depends who you're worried the attacker is. For most people, zeroing a few times will be enough to prevent them ever retrieving the data. Very expensive specialised data recovery equipment can still recover data from a zeroed drive, though... so if you're afraid of the police, or the FBI, or the NSA, then you're better off physically shredding the hard drive.

Certain Pages do not show up in my history log. Why is that. I have a security concern as on site was my online bank site.

I have noticed that some websites will show up in the history log and some website will not. I have a concern that there might be a security breach on my laptop that I am not aware of.

You probably need to "Publish All" to make all of the
pages republish and fix their nav bars.
Hi Allyson
I did as you said but oh oh.......... it didn't work. I have also been told that I must add the name of the second site to my first site, so that it would look like this:
http://web.mac.com/lorna6/secondsitename
I am told to then use this URL and make it a hyper-link to my first site and then my sites will be linked. I take it to mean that when I hyper link it to my first site, this new URL has to be in the Navigation bar at the top of the page.
Can I name the second site anything I want or am I constrained as I was in the naming of my first site? (the .Mac constraint of having us all use our .Mac name in the URL. BTW, I don't mind this at all, and in fact I think it's a good thing, because that way I can spot another .Mac person.

Wifi speed and the new Apple TV concerns

One of the great things about my classic ATV is that I can start downloading a movie before dinner, and know that my viewing experience later won't be subject to variances in the wifi speed. In my experience, wifi speed and reliability can vary widely - and my worst nightmare is a video that stutters or freezes.
I new the new box has the faster modern chip, but I'm concerned Apple has no control over what might be the weak link: the wifi connection.
Is it time to make a run on a couple of classic boxes? Are they still in stock anywhere?

The problem is that all services are bundled with your Apple ID ([email protected]):
Your iCloud account (Mail, Contacts, Calendars, Reminders, Notes, Backups, etc.),
also iTunes & App Store purchases (Music, Movies, TV Shows, etc.),
and the iTunes Match services.
(I guess that all your devices - yours and your wife's are connected to one iTunes library, right?)
If you want that your wife gets her own iCloud account for Mail, Contacts, Calendars, etc. but gets also access to your media then you have two set up two things on her device:
iCloud (Settings > iCloud) with her account (e.g. [email protected])
and
iTunes & App Stores (Settings > iTunes & App Stores) with your account (e.g. [email protected]).
In this case she gets access to your library and could use the same iTunes Match account.

Concerns w/ MSI fx5600XT 256 Card

I am looking for a video card to go with my
New MSI kt6 deltaLSR mobo w/ 2500 barton chip
I have 1 GIG of samsung (512x2) PC3200 400MHz Dual Channel DDR sdram
waiting for the Mobo to arrive
I have 2 concerns about what was a soon to be purchased MSI fx5600xt 256 Video Card
1.) "Special notes for midrange graphics card buyers:
Avoid 256 MB versions and save money. 256 MB VRAM is useless with these cards and card manufacturers often use inferior memory in 256 MB cards"
Quote from Toms Hardware guide
2.) "GeForce FX5600 (non-Ultra)
Pros- DX9 support
Cons- Gets wasted by Radeons. Not good value for money
GeForce FX5600 Ultra rev1.0/2.0
Pros- DX9 support, fairly good DX8 performance (rev2.0)
Cons- Poor DX9 perforamance, Radeon 9600 Pro and faster cards are much better for both DX8 and DX9. Not good value for money
Now I know this is a MSI site and I don't want to get flamed
But i have a limited budget and can't upgrade all the time or waste money
I just want honest answers and opinions...
1.) Is the Toms hardware guide Skewed?
2.) is the 5600xt better than the Ultras?
3.) Is the 256 MB worth spending the extra money on instead of the 128mb
4.) Would the ATI cards be the better value right now for the price and time of the cards on the market

first off nvidia's "XT" models are the opposite of ATI's "XT" models. They are a lower end version and are like ati's "SE" models.
my suggestion would be to buy an old 9500NP and then softmod it to a 9700NP(which has 8 pixel pipelines compared to 4, which means better performance by nearly double). but, sometimes it doesnt work. so dont blame me if it doesnt work. u can always change it back later thought.
you can get it here(has to be this model and have the "L" shaped memory): http://store.yahoo.com/buyaib/atirad9512dd.html
and u can download the drivers for the mod here: http://www.ocfaq.com/softmod/download.php

I look forward to your reply and a resolution of this problem.
Thank you very much!!!

You are welcome. I'm glad you got it back up.
(1) You say you did the symbolic link. I will assume this is set correctly; it's very important that it is.
(2) I don't know what you mean by "Been feeding the [email protected] for several weeks now, 700 emails each day at least." After the initial training period, SpamAssassin doesn't learn from mail it has already processed correctly. At this point, you only need to teach SpamAssassin when it is wrong. [email protected] should only be getting spam that is being passed as clean. Likewise, [email protected] should only be getting legitimate mail that is being flagged as junk. You are redirecting mail to both [email protected] and [email protected] ... right? SpamAssassin needs both.
(3) Next, as I said before, you need to implement those "Frontline spam defense for Mac OS X Server." Once you have that done and issue "postfix reload" you can look at your SMTP log in Server Admin and watch as Postfix blocks one piece of junk mail after another. It's kind of cool.
(4) Add some SARE rules:
Visit http://www.rulesemporium.com/rules.htm and download the following rules:
70sareadult.cf
70saregenlsubj0.cf
70sareheader0.cf
70sarehtml0.cf
70sareobfu0.cf
70sareoem.cf
70sarespoof.cf
70sarestocks.cf
70sareunsub.cf
72sare_redirectpost
Visit http://www.rulesemporium.com/other-rules.htm and download the following rules:
backhair.cf
bogus-virus-warnings.cf
chickenpox.cf
weeds.cf
Copy these rules to /etc/mail/spamassassin/
Then stop and restart mail services.
There are other things you can do, and you'll find differing opinions about such things. In general, I think implementing the "Frontline spam defense for Mac OS X Server" and adding the SARE rules will help a lot. Good luck!

Should I have concerns about the integrity of Best Buy's Mac sales?

I bought my iMac OS X, Early 2008 Model from a Best Buy store. I was a naive & pensive 1st time [ever] PC buyer. The sales [kid] led me to an iMac that had been returned, and referred to it as an "open box sale." I was re-assured the Mac had been completely "wiped clean of all..." After setting it up at home, I found out different; and the previous owner had it for 4 months! Earlier at B.Buy the sales kid told me after asking "why was it returned?" His reply, "Because the screen was too big." His answer certainly didn't make sense to me then, or when I discovered [at home] that it took the 1st owner [him] so long to decide it wasn't what he wanted. So I packed up my Mac & returned to the B.Buy store to have everything cleared.
I knew I had a lot of trial & error lessons on my hands, not being a computer literate person, but evidently I like a good challenge; and that it has been! No complaints; at first I was concerned about 'doing something wrong'. I was re-assured by the Geek Squad, "You can't harm it; just explore your Mac to get to know it." Well, needless to say, not being able to follow instructions in Owner's Manuals, I'm more of a "slowly SHOW me HOW TO, and what's what" type of learner. I had to Google everything pertaining to PC terminology, steps on how to download & install, files, folders, using delete/trash, keeping all in place/order and NOT duplicating [and which one to keep if I did!] Please don't think I'm stupid; my Mac has been properly stored for 6 years, minus 8 months. I was not in the position in my life to have it set up in a secure environment. Since Jan 2014, my Mac & I have spent many hours, equalling weeks & months face-to-[screen] face!
I've had many problems since installing OS X Mavericks 10.9.4; and was very apprehensive updating due to the many unfavorable Reviews I had been researching. But I couldn't keep ignoring Apple's repeated recommendations of keeping every item updated. So I eventually found my way to all info, ON ONE PAGE! Yipee! I could not believe what I was reading! Even though I was aware my APPLE apps, plug-ins, utilities, etc. were not auto updating [set to do so]. I FINALLY found my Mac's PROBLEM. My main software, Snow Leopard (10.6.8) is GROSSLY OUTDATED! I totally spaced that due to my Mac being packed away for so long. So I'm working on that. I'M SHARING all MY INFO hoping to help other's who are at my technical level. SO all YOU COMPUTER WHIZZES can SCOFF, GIGGLE all YOU WANT . I take no offense, I'm kidding ☀️.
BUT!! Since learning how & where to navigate through the system's files & such, and seeing documents, folders and files that strike me as odd, I have a NAGGING ITCH something is there from the ORIGINAL OWNER. He CREATED SOMETHING, a way into my system, CURRENTLY. I've had to Google 'plist names', and with the help of a very longtime good Facebook friend in New York State, I am learning more from his knowledge & advice. ALL my APPLE security settings are set-up, deny's & allows, and I'm not downloading Videos from MeTube , or anywhere else for that matter. I only download SAFE game apps, and I'm the ONLY user. ANY IDEAS or SUGGESTIONS COMP WHIZZES? Besides updating my software; I'm just trying to find out [on that subject] if I have to buy, download/install all Software Programs of past to be able to run the current OS X Mavericks? Which I read already has a 10.9.5 version. I wanted to become a part of the "Preview Program" for Yosemite; but nope, I cannot!
REASONS for MY PREVIOUS OWNER Concerns: My system got so bad, while attempting to Chat on fb w/one friend; every letter I typed, the rainbow ball would spin forever, highlight & delete partial words, and would totally crash. I downloaded an anti Virus app for Mac; scanned my system [took forever]; ending w/a report of 55 VIRUSES!! Many files could not be scanned too. My Mac HD Encrypted Logical Partition Drive un-mounted at least two times, and there's one too many files than there should be. But the file name was not shown, only that the count is off. HELP?

While I am no fan of Best Buy and would not buy a lightbulb from them I doubt you issues have anything to do with your iMac and more to do with your lack of experience and simply getting bad advice. Judging by you post I suspect you have loaded your computer down with a lot of crapware and that has caused it's problems. For example running antivirus apps on a Mac not only is a waste of time, it's a waste of money, system resources and will eventually create more problems that it solves. Please begin educating yourself on the subject by reading Thomas Reeds articles on the subject, Thomas is a frequent and knowledgeable contributor to these forums. You can find his webpage at http://www.reedcorner.net/tech-guides/
The good news is here are absolutely no, zero, zippo viruses for OS X. There are other types of malware available (for example trojans) however they differ greatly from viruses in that the use has to download and install them, whereas viruses do not work that way. OS X is not like MS Windows and is extremely secure.
My suggestion at this point would be to clean your computer of the crapware (including antivirus apps) however before doing so please download and install EtreCheck and post its report. Then we can see how your computer has been configured and begin to give you some advice on the next steps.

Open Box Sales Concerns

I sent the below e-mail to customer support on 12/1/2014 but haven't heard back from a single person so I thought I would try here.
To whom it may concern,
I am very sorry to say this but I have been massively disappointed in Best Buy. Back on 9/30/2014 I purchased an open box 32 inch Vizio Television from the then closing Lewisville, Texas Best Buy for my in-laws to use when they came to visit us for Thanksgiving. The big sticker on the box says the price and "Missing Accessories: No Missing Accessories". The line below that says "Comments: No Damage". Without thinking twice I was grateful for the good price and was willing to put my faith in Best Buy telling me everything was okay. The TV sat in the sealed box in the guest bedroom until last week when my in-laws showed up for the holiday. My father in law was very excited and asked me to set it up so he could catch up on some Netflix shows. I happy obligated and opened the box and set up the TV. The first thing I noticed was that the remote wasn't in the accessories box. I assumed it had fallen out so I looked for it. There was, unfortunately, no remote to be found as it was missing from the box. I figured it was an easy enough fix to order a new remote online and went to grab a Vizio remote from a different TV. I found a remote and turned it on only to be greeted by a clicking sound coming from the speakers. I tried everything to get the clicking to stop but failed. After an hour of failed attempts I decided to try again later. The next day I found a few minutes and tried only to fail again. My wife was curious and looked at the box. On the side of the box was a slip of paper taped to the side that stated "Initial Problem Description from POS: Speaker is not working". There are 6 stickers on the box saying there are no accessories missing and no damage and one slip of paper stating there is a bad speaker. My first question is: why are there so many stickers saying there are no problems when someone obliviously knew there were? My second question: why would you sell a TV with a known speaker problem? Why wouldn't it go back to Vizio to be repaired so it could be resold in working condition? I have loved Best Buy for years and even managed to finally meet Elite status and I am sad to see all that go but I am completely frustrated with this situation. It is a problem that shouldn't have happened. I know it was my fault for not checking every inch of the box before purchasing and I accept that but I am frustrated that the TV was on sale in the first place. I hope this can help prevent the frustrations in the future.
Thank you,

Hi David,
Given your description speakers/soundbar are not going to work. It sounds like this clicking is a defect in the speaker itself and has nothing to do with the sound signal being sent to the speaker.
It seems like the only option would be to get the unit repaired, and any Best Buy store should be able to help you set this up. If you want me to reach out to a particular store to get the ball rolling on this repair just reply to this thread with the specific location you would be bringing this TV into.
Thanks,

A few days into having the Z10- MY pros/cons/thoughts/concerns/praises/etc....

*Let me preface this by saying I just want to lay it all out on the table- you may take it with a grain of salt, or feel free to comment!*
I have been a very loyal blackberry customer since 2007- I've had their curves, bolds, and torches, and I currently own the Torch 9810. Blackberry has been a fantastic company, and I've always loved owning a blackberry. I was EXTREMELY excited when I found out that they were releasing a new operating system as well as two phones, so, on the 22nd, when AT&T released the Z10, I went and bought it outright so that I could play around with the OS. Man on man, can I say how brilliant Blackberry has done with their new line of phones. The Z10 is sleek, sexy, quick, and unlike anything out there. I played around with it for quite some time, and the following are things that I've thought about it:
Good things/good features/wow effect:
- huge, bright, and wonderful screen
- quick interface and smooth OS
- loved being able to access the camera without having to go into the phone
- THE CAMERA!! WOW As all BB users can tell you, it is 100fold better; it's quick, it takes crisp and clear pictures, and comes with image enhancements, it's easy to use, and there are so many options within the camera application.
- I was able to transfer my texts, calender, contacts, and memos from OS7 to OS10
- I love being able to see my calender events on the 'lock screen'
- the HUB is quite a cool feature that consolidates many things
- call quality is great!
- the virtual keyboard is the best out there
- the 'sleep mode' screen is really awesome- the one that shows the clock, and alarm settings
- cool little features like when you want to power off the phone, and it prompts you to hold down the power button for 3 seconds
- NOT HAVING TO DO A BAT PULL EVERY TIME YOU DOWNLOADED A NEW APP!
- being able to folder up items on the home screen
- media sharing!!! connecting to a TV or PC or other DLNA supported devices
*this list isn't a fully extensive list, but these are the things I could think of right away*
Concerns/not so good things/problems/things I actually miss from OS7:
- Physical keyboard (YES, I know- the Q10 will be coming out soon... anyone know an official AT&T date???)
- back button and trackball/pad (that was blackberry classic!!)
- being able to determine how long the vibrate for text/bbm/emails/phone calls/etc
- APPS, APPS, APPS.... I just don't understand why so many apps from OS7 aren't there!! (BBuzz, Skype, Point, Shazam, Google Maps [not the blackberry version, but the regular google maps], and BBVA Compass Bank mobile banking were the ones that I HAD, but no longer would have on the Z10) <-- when developers ask what apps people want, well... simple.. GO LOOK AT WHAT iPhone IS DOING!
- facebook SUCKS on the new OS, and, well, it sucked on OS7 too, which is why I only used the 'mobile site'... now the BB10 mobile site sucks!! :/// I've only been able to check facebook from my computer except when I get updates!
- ACTIVE FRAMES!! WTF is that??? I had to purchase an LED/vibrate notifications app, but it only works if it's running in the active frames........ hate that... with a passion
- phone contacts and facebook contacts are merged and i hate that too!!! Ive tried all different ways to no avail to get that option off
- text messages, BBM, contacts, and 'reminders' lag
- the HUB and having everything consolidated... not a fan of that at all. I want email with email, texts with texts, and facebook with facebook. Maybe I'm paranoid, but consolidation scares me
- battery life is NOT very good, even though they tout the battery being the biggest yet
- I miss the way photos were categorized with BB7, and the whole media application was better on 7
- what happened to voice notes and voice notes recorder??
- I wish the 'memo pad' was back instead of it being called 'reminders' on BB10
- I feel like BB7 was just easier to use then BB10
- gestures, albeit being an awesome feature, is really hard to get used to. I want the back button and trackpad back!! made life SO much easier
*this too isn't a fully extensive list, BUT, because of most of these things, I am returning the Z10 tomorrow.*
I wish Blackberry would contact me and talk with me about the good/bad/neg/pos things about the new Z10!! There are some amazing updates and features, but I feel BB may have overreached a bit on a few things.
Phew! I just needed to vent and get all of that out there.
Let me end by saying that Blackberry has surly come around and made a dramatic turn around in the way they build phones. The phone itself is amazing, and there are great things about it. Unfortunately, MY cons have outweighed the pros right now- I just hope things get even better. BLACKBERRY- CONTACT ME AND TALK WITH ME....
Until next time, I hope you BBers have a fantastic week!!

Time to upgrade, but concerned...

Hi...I currently have an iBook G4, and while I love this little white book, it is deffently time to upgrade. I have droped this puppy more then once and now it is a permenent desktop due to hinge damage.
Anyways, im thinking of buying a new macbook, but a couple things concern me.
1. Ive heard the new macbooks overheat like a vintage PSX during ff7. haha.....you know what i mean...(if you don't, look up some PSX game system history...lol). Anyways, my ibooks fan never turns on. during the 2+ years that ive owned it, its maybe turned on 5 times, and that was usually during WOW. It also scared the crap outta me, because it would just turn on and id hear this wizzing noise.
2. Sence apple is still somewhat experimenting with the intell chips, im still concerned on how they are working out. Any personal thoughts, experiances...ect.
Any help would be greatly appriciated.
Thanks. Derek =]

1. Ive heard the new macbooks overheat like a
vintage PSX during ff7.
I got mine 5 months ago and when I first got it, it did run hot. But after the firmware update, it's been beautiful. I mean it never seems to get hot. Not even toasty-warm.
And I rarely noticed the fans running, though, of course, sometimes they do.
2. Sence apple is still somewhat experimenting with the intell chips, im
still concerned on how they are working out.
Again, there were some hiccups at the very beginning, but at this point the experimentation is waaay over. Every new Mac is using them and they're working out brilliantly. Lightening speed and great performance.
Upgrade, guy. You will be amazed not just by the speed and performance of this machine, but by its stunningly beautiful screen, the incredibly responsive keyboard and being able to use the built-in camera. It's really a fantastic machine.
