Skype Translator for the Deaf community in ASL (Am...

It would be amazing if skype can include a translator for the deaf community and provide a translator for them. This would extend the deaf community comunication's via skype with any speaking person not just deaf people.

Great idea, not sure how it would be implementated - would a dialogue box pop up showing ASL hands ?

Skype Translator For Skype

I can not access Skype account on your desktop through outlook Account

There is only one "Skype Translator" app: It's a full screen app following the Windows modern design pattern. So it looks very similar to "Skype for modern Windows" (also referred to as "Metro").
There is no "Skype Translator for Windows desktop" app which would be providing the Translator functionality via the classic Windows desktop app.

Error with clob column: "No pl/sql translation for the blind type given for this bind variable"

This is reports 11g
I've got a clob column. Reports seems to recognize its type, but if I try to reference it in a format trigger, I get this error at compile time:
"No pl/sql translation for the blind type given for this bind variable"

Actually, Reports is in something better than Forms.
Neither Forms nor Reports do not have "complete" SQL engine (both have only "complete" PL/SQL engine), but have their own SQL parser, which does not understand SQL commands after the database 8.0.
But, in Reports Data Model - SQL Query Statement, we can write "modern" SQL statement (> database 8.0), because Reports sent it directly to the database, without using their own SQL parser.
For example, in Reports Data Model - SQL Query Statement, we can write this (scalar subquery expressions, in bold):
select empno,
       ename,
       deptno,
       (select dname from dept where deptno = emp.deptno) dname
from emp
order by empno;
although scalar subquery expressions was introduced in the database 9.0.1, and in databases 8.0 and 8.1 we should write someting like this:
select emp.empno,
       emp.ename,
       emp.deptno,
       dept.dname
from emp,
       dept
where dept.deptno = emp.deptno
order by empno;

I signed up for the Technical Communications Suite Subscription yesterday. Now when I launch FrameMaker, it says I can either use as a trial or buy whereupon it propts for a serial number.

Signed up for the Technical Communications Suite Subscription yesterday. Now when I launch FrameMaker, I get a dialog box saying I either have to use it as a trial version (for 30 days) or buy it. If I click buy it prompts for a serial number.
On installation when I tried to access my adobe account in the dialog box that appeared. It said I didn't have an internet connection. My internet was working fine and I got the same message even once I launched my browser.

Did you install using an account with admin privileges? Do you have any Group or other security policies on machine that may restrict new software installs?
For installation issues, it's best to contact customer support.

Skype translator for Mac/iphone/ipad??

Just got email about Skype translator with info about Windows, Microsoft account etc. How about your customers on Mac? Would be nice to add info for them wouldn't it?

I am DEAF, avid user of Skype and have all Apple devices. I have been waiting for Translator as I need captioning. Please POST when you get how to download this with my Skype on Mac. Big thanks in advance as I know that Microsoft & Skype support their Deaf and HOH customers. I can't imagine you would stick it to us just to give up Mac/IOS. As a business person, I get that you want great consumer adoption of Windows and Microsoft products. I get it but to hold hostage Deaf and HOH consumers who love and need Skype while having Apple, is just not good business and not in line with Microsoft values. So I know you will always start with your Microsoft product but know that I am a Microsoft customer too as I have loyalty having bought Office software and continue to do so for decades. TIA.

Skype Number for the Channel Islands

I am new to Skype and am trying to get a Skype number but am unable to get one as I live in the Channel Islands, least it looks that way, is there anyway around this? I would like to use skype to contact my mum who lives in SA via Video maybe I do not need a number, sorry if all these statements seem rather random!

Hi, telephony in the Channel Islands is complex. The Channel Islands are part of the British Isles but not part of the UK (Isle of Man is same too).
These offshore islands still use the +44 UK internatinal prefix, but when phoning from the UK by either landline or mobile the calls are classified as international and a premium is applied. This charge is particularly hefty from mobile networks and can be as much as 70p/min (T-mobile). UK telecom providers no longer include calls to offshore islands in their UK inclusive call bundles, however Channel Island providers do include calls to the UK in their inclusive bundles.
The good thing about Skype is that it doesn't differentiate between offshore islands and the UK, you get charged for the same +44 rate which currently stands at 1.7p/min to landlines and 5.8p/min mobiles on PAYG. The rates are even better in bundles.
You have several choices, you can video chat with your mother in SA for free via Skype provided she's on Skype and is able to use a PC or mobile device. You could buy a UK Skype number for people to contact you on or you could buy a SA number on Skype so friends and family in SA could keep in touch with you at local call rates.
If you buy a Skype subscription (bundle of calls) first, you then get a 50% discount on a Skype number purchase which is well worthwhile.

Apple Outreach for the Aging Community?

Hello,
My mother in law is an intellectually active 80 year old who is, although sharp and an avid reader, extremely intimidated by technology.
My wife and I are concerned that she is becoming increasingly isolated by her age, the demands of caring for her husband, an the challenges
of getting around.
We think that getting her on line might significantly enrich and improve the quality of her life, as well as the life of her husband, but she has rebuffed our efforts to get her on line because the interfaces scare her, and I suspect that she doesn't want to be made to feel foolish.
Apple certainly was successful with their college and high school outreach program to get young people accustomed to the Apple environment, and has been successful at marketing Apple products as being more intuitive than their competitors.
My mother in law and her husband live by themselves a considerable distance from any family, so I was wondering whether Apple or any of the Apple Communities have ever mounted a geriatric outreach effort to introduce aging people to the Apple internet and communications environment. If so, I would appreciate any information that anyone could offer in this regard. I would appreciate any information that anyone might be able to offer regarding any similar internet/computer outreach programs for the aging or geriatric communities offered by educational or research institutions, or social service organizations.
I submit this query to the iPad support community, as I thought that iPad might be a logical hardware platform for aging people due to its light weight, but I am open to other suggestions.
Thanking you in advance,
Charlie

Those are big questions, from the specific to univeral.
1. Trying to hook someone up to technology who is 80 and is [still] intimidated by consumer computer technology... remember that the technology has been around since that person was in her 40s so there was never sufficient motivation to get her started.
You might take an activity she enjoys daily, solitaire or crosswords can be done in a different and perhaps more convenient form. If she is a reader, show her a Kindle or iPad reader app. Then feed her other stuff. Everyone here will have different suggestions to hook someone.
The trick is getting her motivated to adopt it herself: "what's in it for me?" * is her unspoken question and will be your guiding light.
2. Regarding geriatric outreach, try searching for government or university sites regarding access to senior citizens. e.g.
"senior citizens" "internet access" ipad site:gov or
"senior citizens" "internet access" health site:gov
"senior citizens" "internet access" Kindle readers site:gov
Or do same for state or county or government library programs. Libraries have preached and practiced community outreach for years. Best wishes.
"what's in it for me?" is also the question on the part of tech industry and your "geriatrics" audience.
Answer that and you will have built a better mousetrap.

Muse validation issue & Adobe's disregard for the professional community

The subscription service is ridiculous.
It took 4 hours troubleshooting with Adobe Support both on the phone and via their online chat feature on why my Muse subscription wouldn't validate. Finally, a tech told me that there is an issue with the Muse activation servers. So, I cannot use Muse at all, and I am going to miss a client deadline now.
Adding to my ire, there is no way to complain to Adobe - no direct e-mail address to customer service, and there is really is no "customer care" option on their phone service.
I cannot see how their subscription service is a teniable business model for their pro-users. We cannot have our production schedule impacted so severly on a product that we are licsensed to use.

I purchased the CC yesterday, and downloaded all applications. In my creative cloud it says everything is up to date, i'm running windows 7 ultimate and I have a custom built computer with specifications for Adobe for the next 100 years.
When I open Muse for the first time, it says I don't have a subscription and I have to buy it or try the trial. I used the chat help service which told me to call a phone number for support with muse. I called the number and went through the menu options only to be directed to www.adobe.com/go/muse and this thread is all I could find to help me, not to happy right now but I'll keep the software for now.
I want to use the Muse application I purchased, so what should I do now? I can't get a rep on the phone to help and I can't get a chat rep to help.

Unresovable Skype Method :-) For the peeps that ha...

First make an msn email/account if you don’t already have one.
After that visit http://skype.com
Click "Join Us"
You will see at the top "
Skip this step by signing in with your Microsoft or Facebook account"
Click one "Microsoft account" text.
If you’re not already signed into your Microsoft Account then it will take you to the sign in page. Just sign in like normal on that page.
After you have signed in it will take you back to http://skype.com on a page where it says already have an account or create a new one, you’re going to want to choose already have an account.
After that it is going to ask you to merge together, all your Skype settings with stay the same it will just merge with your email.
After you have merged you’re now unresolvable to all resolvers! When they try to resolve your username it will just load or give an error!
PS: If this does not work, make another msn account and click create new Skype account instead of merging and try it that way. It does work merging but sometimes doesn’t. It will 100% work if you create

Hi, Aquella, and welcome to the Community,
If you can not re-set your Caller ID to your Skype Number (check your settings and remember to Save any changes), then the next step would be to contact customer service to unravel and resolve any problems.

Elaine

Different language translations for the same user ID

Hi all,
We have a custom program which is run as an overnight batch under a user ID that is specific to batch jobs.
The purpose of this batch job is to validate certain requests saved in a custom table and trigger e-mails to individual users who have raised the requests. These e-mails have to be either in EN or FR, according to the language that is maintained in user master of individual requestors. However all users receive e-mails in EN as the user ID that runs the overnight batch has EN. But our requirement is that each user should get email in his language.
Is there a possibility to explicity choose a language for each iteration of the program, before retrieving the translations so that each user gets e-mails in his language.
Regards,
KC

I already have Exp definitions based on folders -
I am looking into the Experience Rules option; it looks like there are some options there, but nothing works after login.
After login the user is directed by the experience definition associated with user folder.
Any clues?

NO CUSTOMER SERVICE OPTIONS FOR THE DEAF!

I have been trying to get information on the Visa gift card I was sent. I placed an order online with Staples. AFTER the order was placed, I received an email saying they apologize, but the tablet is not in stock. The CSR at Staples claimed that my Visa card was not charged. However, when I took a look, the money had, in fact, been removed from the account. I was told to call the number on the back of the card, which is what I did or TRIED TO DO. The relay operator dialed, listened all the way through, then came back and said THERE IS NO OPTION FOR A LIVE CUSTOMER SERVICE REPRESENTATIVE. None. Also, when you enter the requested information like the tracking number, etc. you get your current balance, then you are cut off.
This is the type of thing that I abhore about Verizon. I want to know why they still have that charge listed on the card! Why is it necessary for it to remain there forever? As long as it is listed, I CANNOT MAKE ANOTHER PURCHASE. The tablet I ordered was $330.00, which took up almost the entire balance of the $400 Visa card. How in the heck is a hearing impaired person supposed to get any help if you do not provide the necessary services? It's as if you seem to think WE DO NOT EXIST! Why tie up those funds for days and days so that nothing else can be ordered?
I pay my bill on time EVERY MONTH! If I said to you it would take 3-5 days for me to make the payment past the due day, would you wait before cutting off my service? I don't think so. So why would you tie up the funds on my card, because you can't keep the accounts up to date? How much longer do I have to wait?????

1. This is a peer-to-peer support forum. If you want to get a message to Verizon, you should contact them directly via one of the options on their Contact Us page.
2. I would assume the number on the card goes to a VISA support line, not Verizon. Verizon doesn't own the card, they just give them out.
If a forum member gives an answer you like, give them the Kudos they deserve. If a member gives you the answer to your question, mark the answer as Accepted Solution so others can see the solution to the problem.

Online support for the deaf does it exist?

I am deaf and I do not have a special phone that I can use to get support. Is it possible for Apple to support me online or by email? What are my options for support?

No. According to their Contact Us link - "If you have a hearing or vision impairment, call 877-204-3930 for direct access to Apple representatives who are trained in providing support using accessibility services."
