Smart Start Question

I posted a question and received a reply regarding a Viper Smart Start and I have one additional question. I have an appointment to have a couple of problems addressed this weekend at another Best Buy and noticed another possible problem today.
I have always remote started when it was dark outside and the headlamps on auto so the headlights and parking lamps turn on when using the Viper. I started the Taurus today (daylight) to warm it after a recent snow and looked outside, no parking lamps on so I attempted to restart and still no parking lamps. After the third attempt to start I went out to the Taurus and it was running and probably started and shut down each time I used the Smart Start App.
Shouldn't the parking lamps be on when the car is running?

Yes. They definitely should be on while it is remote started. You definitely want to bring that up to the Autotechs when you take it back in.
While I am employed by Best Buy, all of my posts here are in a non-official capacity. Any information or recommendations that are given are done so in an attempt to help in any way that I can and are not an official part of my job. If you feel that I have helped, feel free to give me Kudos or mark my post as a solution...I like to know how well I am doing.

Three Getting Started Questions with RV180

I recently purchased the RV180 router. I have a few quick "getting started" questions about using it:
1. Is the "Static DHCP" the screen I need to use in order to reserve DHCP addresses (see attached)? That's where I've been reserving all my DHCP addresses with. I'm just making sure I have the correct screen.
2. Do I need to do anything to "backup" my configuration, or will my settings still be around when the RV180 reboots?
3. Do I need to run a check for firmware update on the RV180, and how do I update the firmware on the RV180 (as well as the SG200-18), or does it usually come with the latest firmware out-of-the-box? If I go ahead and put a service contract on the RV180 and SG200-18, will I receive my firmware updates automatically? Are the part numbers for the service contracts the same for the RV180 and SG200-18?
Thanks!

Hello,
1. Is the "Static DHCP" the screen I need to use in order to reserve DHCP addresses (see attached)? That's where I've been reserving all my DHCP addresses with. I'm just making sure I have the correct screen.
Yes, that is the correct location to set DHCP reservations.
2. Do I need to do anything to "backup" my configuration, or will my settings still be around when the RV180 reboots?
Whenever you hit save after making a change you configuration is saved and will survive a reboot.
If you would like to save backup copy of your configration file just go to Administration >> Backup/Restore settings.
3. Do I need to run a check for firmware update on the RV180, and how do I update the firmware on the RV180 (as well as the SG200-18), or does it usually come with the latest firmware out-of-the-box? If I go ahead and put a service contract on the RV180 and SG200-18, will I receive my firmware updates automatically? Are the part numbers for the service contracts the same for the RV180 and SG200-18?
You will need to manually update the firmware on the RV180. That firmware is available here:
RV180 Firmware
It is simply one file, that you upload under Administration >> Firmware Upgrade. There is no bootcode for the routers (like there was with your switch)
You can locate this in the future the same way you did the SG200 firmware (because this link may change) on the Cisco website.
As for the service contract, the part number for both of those devices will be CON-SBS-SVC2.
Hope that helps, and I will try to get to your other questions sometime today as well. Also since you just bought there you are of course welcome to call in and get some support over the phone, both your devices do come with 1 year of technical support, and it sounds like you are getting or have contracts, so I guess make that 3 years.

Old Viper Security and Smart Start installed on a new car?

I bought a Viper Security and Remote Start system along with the Smart Start system about 1 year ago from my local Best Buy. They did the isntallation
in my truck and did a great job.
-But-
The engine in that truck died last week. So, I have since purchased a new 2010 Toyta 4Runner Limited. So my quesiton is this:
Can I take the Viper Security and Remote Start system along with the Smart Start system out of my dead truck myself, bring it to Best Buy,
and have them install it again in my new 4Runner? Is there any way I can have my old system transfered to the new car?
That way I only have to pay for installation and any new parts needed as opposed to a whole new system.
Thanks!

It doesn't happen very often but it is possible. Since there is no actual install sku/price to charge you to take it out of the old car, they could either charge by the hour (last I knew it was around 79/hr) or they charge you the cost of what it cost to install initially(if you have the receipt). It's really up to the installer. Uninstalling and re-installing doesn't always work though. A lot can go wrong during the transfer. Best thing to do is contact the install bay and ask if they have an installer willing to do it for you.

ITunes Podcasts & Smart Playlists Question

Hi everyone,
Thanks for taking the time to read my question.
I have a 60gb Colour iPod and have nearly filled it, so do not want to sync any of the podcasts to it. I've disabled Podcast syncing in the options tab after connecting the iPod, but Podcasts are still syncing because I have a large range of Smart Playlists which are set to show me what I added by date. This means they are treating Podcast content as being "Added On" a certain date and hence appearing in the Smart Playlist and being synced.
It is my understanding that to disable this I have to add a clause to the Smart Playlist which says "Kind, Is Not, Podcast" - is this the case? To go through every playlist I have would take ages and can anyone advise if it's possible to apply the same criteria to all playlists? I tried to select more than one by holding down Control or Shift but it didn't work.
Any thoughts would be very gratefully received!
Cheers,
Edd

This question has been answered in the general iTunes for Windows Forum.

"Smart update" question or how to overwrite the library in current use

Hello,
I would like to add a "smartUpdate" feature to an application i.e.
1. Read an updated library from the web (e.g. as archive- zip)
2. Extract files from archive and write them to a local drive.
3. After all the files are written, close the appliaction and restart it.
#1 is easy enough, there problems is with #2 and #3.
I will need to overwrite jar file that the running application is using.
Does anybody has experience with this. Any ideas how to do this.
Thank you.
Leo

Appreciate any other ideas...If you have to exchange classes in an application while it is still running, this will always be a bit tricky (if not
impossible). It is much easiser to close and restart the application (= make the OS call the Java-interpreter again). But if you decide, that restarting from the OS is not possible, there is some work to do :-)
There are three main problems:
1. If your classes are loaded from Jar-files, the Jar-files will be locked by the java-process. Once a class has been loaded from a Jar-file, that file is write-protected
2. Java will not reload a class that it has already loaded, even if the Class- or Jar-File has changed
3. Even if the class would be reloaded, this could not affect any instances of these classes.
Problems 1 and 2 can be solved by using a custom ClassLoader (this is still 100% pure Java, no hack or
something).
This custom ClassLoader could be written in a way that it could close the Jar-Files on demand (closing the Jar-File every time a class has been loaded would slow down class loading significantly).
To force reloading (=using the new jar-file) you would have to instantiate a new ClassLoader (= another instance of your own custom ClassLoader). This new ClassLoader will use the new versions.
The third problem is just a matter of your application; you must ensure that it re-instantiates everything with the new ClassLoader.
So, it would be something like:
//Create custom CLassLoader
MyClassLoader cl = new MyClassLoader();
//--- start update code (assuming my.package.MyClass1.main will receive the new jar-file)
Class mc = cl.loadClass( "my.package.MyClass1");
Method main = mc.getMethod( "main", new Class[]{ String[].class } );
main.invoke( null, new Object[]{ new String[0] } );
//--- overcome write-protection
cl.closeFiles();
//--- now copy the new Jar-File into the appropriate directory
//--- dispose first ClassLoader and create a new one
cl = new MyClassLoader();
//--- start app (assuming my.package.MyClass2.main is the "real" application)
Class mc = cl.loadClass( "my.package.MyClass1");
Method main = mc.getMethod( "main", new Class[]{ String[].class } );
main.invoke( null, new Object[]{ new String[0] } );All this ClassLoader stuff is a bit tricky, but this kind of "smart update", where you exchange classes while the VM is still running, is not a trivial problem (though
it's quite common if you're write application servers).

Smart Playlist Question

I started to notice something the other day. I'm not sure if the problem is new or if I am just using Smart Playlists more.
This is what's going on. I create a Smartplay list in iTunes. All is good it syncs to my iPod.
What I am having problems is the play lists becomes static. After the initial creation, I have a few playlists that are Random songs; like a random 1 hour, 2 hour, and 10 hour. I'd like these to be updated at every sync if not every time iTunes is opened.
Am I miss understanding Smartplay lists? Is there a way to do what I am looking for?

Do you have live updating checked on your SPL criteria?

Smart Object Question

I am not a regular to this group and I have to admit I am a little
behind with my Photoshop learning curve. I just started going thru some info on smart objects and I am really confused about where these smart objects get saved.
When you go to edit the SO, a dialogue box prompts to save to commit the changes but then the next paragraph of the dialogue says the file must be saved in the same location....is that referencing the saving of the ORIGINAL tif or psd?
Thanks for any enlightenment on this! CS3
kristin

Thanks, Marek!
So, if the original and "placed" image is moved from its location or deleted...then what happens to the SO status?
Also, in another scenario, what if the SO does not exist before a layer in a file is converted to a SO...is this SO saved anywhere else or is it just some sort of extension to the file in which it was originally just an ordinary layer?

Starter question: ear created on sun one studio can't be redployed

Just start learning sun one studio. Followed the tutorial of helloworld, test succeed on sun one studio's RI server. I tried to redeploy the ear file on sun one's application 7, got error message:
Deployment Error -- Error while running ejbc -- Fatal Error from EJB Compiler -- -- Failed to load deployment descriptor for: hello cause: Error reading from file: C:\Sun\AppServer7\domains\domain1\server1\applications\j2ee-apps\hello_2\sun-EJBModule_Greeter.xml
under hello_2 folder, the applicaiton server unzipped descriptor is named: EJBModule_Greeter.xml.
shouldn't the ear file be able to redeploy without modification on any J2EE complied application server? what did I do wrong?
Thanks for your help.
regards.

I'll answer my own question - for anyone else who may want to know. The tool is SUN ONE Migration tool for application servers, and it can be found at URL http://www.sun.com/migration/sunonetools.html.
The migration is from J2EERI to S1AS. I haven't tried it out yet , but will soon.
Earlier I asked ...
Do I understand correctly - I must use a migration
tool to migrate from SUN ONE to SUN ONE?

Getting started question

I'm sure I'll have fewer questions as times moves on, but here is another newbie question.
I've gone through the initial getting started chapter on the 'Calculator' stateless session bean J2EE project.
At the step:
<i>Deploying and Running the Calculator Application</i>
I think I successfully deploy my EAR.
The page won't load in my browser.
I've tried many flavors of localhost, localhost.corp.adobe.com, AHAMILTO1-XP and AHAMILTO1-XP.corp.adobe.com to port 50418/Calculator/Calculator.jsp.
For example:
http://localhost:50418/Calculator/Calculator.jsp
Am I using the wrong port? Is the port 50418 not an http port? I guess I'm asking how do I determine my http port number? I also tried 50000.
I get the response during deployment:
<i>Jan 11, 2005 2:27:57 PM /userOut/deploy (com.sap.ide.eclipse.sdm.threading.DeployThreadManager) [Deploy Thread] INFO:
CalculatorEar.ear -> Successfully deployed file:/C:/DOCUME1/ahamilto/LOCALS1/Temp/temp54088CalculatorEar.ear
DEPLOYMENT ...
==> SDM host : AHAMILTO1-XP
==> SDM port : 50418
==> URL : file:/C:/DOCUME1/ahamilto/LOCALS1/Temp/temp54088CalculatorEar.ear
... FINISHED SUCCESSFULLY</i>

Hello,
1. Does your browser show the startpage of your local WAS if you try URL http://localhost:50000
2. Where does your port 50418 come from? It seams that you have several instances on your computer, maybe you should try http://localhost:50400/Calculator/Calculator.jsp to reach your application. XXX18 is normally the sdm port through which you deploy your application to j2ee engine.
Maybe that helps,
André

Smart Filter Question

Hello,
I just recently started as a sys admin and part of my initail job is to clean up our smartfilter. This may be a simple question, but I am not familiar with the software and cannot find the answer on the forums or the net. I just need to view the active the active users within a group, to add and remove accordingly. I just cannot find out how to view all the members within each group we have setup. Any help with this would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Jay

Hello,
The reason I could not view view users within a group was simply because they were never added. Gotta love taking over when jobs are half finished. Thanks

Live updating smart playlist question

I made a smart play list for my songs that have no rating.
but once I rate them the music stops because of the live updating. I turn this feature off but my question is, when will the smart play list update with the live updating off? Daily?
Thanks

Ya I see your problem. The playlist is for stuff you haven't rated yet. If you rate it, it then comes out of that playlist. The problem being, if you rate the song while it is playing, it gets booted out of the playlist and since that is where you are currently playing music from, the song abruptly stops playing. Right?
As Beavis pointed out, if the live update is turned off, it will NEVER update because the playlist is frozen at the time you either create it with live updating turned off or when you turn off the live update feature.
So the solution is, leave the live update off. Then at your own schedule, when you remember, edit the smart playlist, click Live Updating, click ok to exit. The playlist will be updated with rated songs being removed and new stuff you added to the library being put into that playlist. Now edit it again and uncheck the box to turn off live updating and you can continue to play out of the playlist and rate as you go. Then repeat next time you are ready to update your playlist.

Address Book Smart Group question

Hello all,
I want to create a Smart Group in Address Book that compiles people according to their job title.
For example a group of everyone whose job title is 'Manager', i.e. Job Title contains Manager. But for some reason Job Title is not in the list of options when creating a Smart Group.
Is there a way to make it work?
Also, (a question for all the Snow Leopard users) is the option for Job Title there in OSX 10.6?
I'm using Tiger 10.4.11.
Thanks all.

There is no such field for Job Title by default. If you select the Add Field item from the Card menu you can add that field to a card. However, I do not see Job Title as a search field for a Smart Group. I assume this is a bug which you can report here: Feedback.

CS5 Smart Object Question

I just migrated from CS4 to CS5 , I have a .psd that has layers with that are photos which contain blending layers inside their original psd's. They were converted and imported to the main.psd as jpgs. Is there a way to convert each of those layers to a smart object and in my case edit the blended layer which contains a blackborder so I can make the border smaller?
Or do I need to get the original jpg photo, create a new border and resave as a jpg?
rd

I don’t quite follow, but I would assume that one should place the files without the borders and possibly just apply the Layer Style Stroke.
One can certainly convert a Layer to a Smart Object, but if that Layer has been transformed before that won’t improve image quality and it certainly would not change a flattened layers back to a previous multi-layer-state – but like I said I may be misunderstanding the question.

HT1695 i've recently got an iphone, and i did the starting questions i've connected to the wifi, but i won't activate. it also won't connect to itunes, please help

i got an iphone the other day and when i started it up i answered the language questions and i've connected it to the wifi. just when i click next it wont activate, it's unable to connect to itunes as well, please help me

First things first, You need to update your wifi security settings. If its set at WEP, then change to WAP2. If its already set that way, then you need to make sure iTunes is up to date on your computer, then update your software.
