Special characters in the shared key when importing firewalls

Hello
We are using CWVMS to import and configure PIX firewalls.
The shared isakmp key of one of the firewalls has not been accepted during import because it contains special characters.
The problem is that the customer does not have authority to change the key.
Does Management Center for Firewalls really accept only alphanumeric isakmp keys ? Is there another alternative to changing the key ?
Thank you sincerely for your help.

I am not sure what your problem is. But ISAKMP keys can be changed directly on the PIX using the command line interface. I have not used any special character in the ISAKMP keys. Can anyone confirm that special characters can be used within ISAKMP keys?

Firefox doesn't reconvert special characters in the file names when download a file with any special characters in the file name

<blockquote>Locking duplicate thread.<br>
Please continue here: [/questions/815207]</blockquote><br>
if i try to download a file with any special characters in file name (e.g. File_Name.pdf), it doesn't reconvert them from the "sanitize url" process and download the file an incorrect name (e.g. File%5FName.pdf).
This is really annoying.
Thank you for your patient

What's wrong with the built-in keyboard on my macbook? The caps button does not work rite, no matter what letter button i push they all come out capitals and the number keys when pushed display the special characters instead of the numbers!

the built-in keyboard on my macbook is not functioning right, the number keys when pushed display the special characters instead of the numbers,
the caps button doesn't work at all, the letter buttons display capitals when pushed whether the caps button is on or off, the shift keys are also out of whack!!
It seems it somehow got relocated to the "0" button because if you push and hold the zero button down the keyboard seems to operate normally, the number keys display numbers when pushed the letter keys display lower case when pushed but release the zero button and your back in the twilight zone!! Can anybody help me resolve this issue? one more thing im using an external usb keyboard right now and it seems to function properly if that helps any.

You would do better in the actual macbook pro forums (this is not).

You need to transfer the iTunes Library from the most recent backup you made before the hard drive was replaced.
You can't transfer the full iTunes Library from the iPad back to iTunes.
There are third-party Windows applications that will transfer data from an iOS device, but they don't re-create the iTunes Library exactly as it was before.

I have a MacBook purchased in 2009 with Snow Leopard. I tried to access "special characters" from the Finder menu and an intermittent blank pop ups and will not stop. It also happens when I run Word or Pages.

The blank pop up began as I tried to access "special characters" from the finder menu. I restarted, turned off and restarted and it did not work. It interferes with any application because I cannot work fast. Every new step takes a few seconds longer such as saving, finding text, check spelling and many more. I am desperate to solve this. Thanks in advance for any help given.

Use the trackpad to scroll, thats what it was designed for. The scroll bars automatically disappear when not being used and will appear if you scroll up or down using the trackpad.
This is a user-to-user forum and most people will post on here if they have problems. You very rarely get people posting to say there update went smooth. The fact is the vast majority of Mountain Lion users will not be experiencing any major problems with the OS, or maybe with apps which are not compatible, but thats hardly Apple's fault if developers don't update their apps.

I have created a book in ibooks author with a custom font when previewing on the ipad the special characters within the font do not appear?

'custom' font sounds like you may be working with a font that is unsupported on iOS/iPad.
Supported fonts are found in the pull-down font menu in the toolbar. Authors are obligated (mostly) to stick to that list.

int aByte;
while ((aByte = bis.read()) != -1) {
bos.write(aByte);

Reg Special Characters in The Names causing the problems EX: Bu00E1rbara u00E1u00EDu00F1u00E9

Hi Friends,
In the Infotype 0002 I am able to observe the Special characters in the First Name & Last Name.
When I run standard SAP report i.e. Birthday list and trying to save the output to the *clipboard option and paste it to the notepad*, I observed that last some characters were missed out depends on the special characters available in the First Name Last Name.
Assume if there are 5 special characters avialble in the Names, then 5 characters will be missed out in the output.
Please help on this issue.
Thanks & Regards

Holding down the option key when booting my iMac lo longer shows me my bootable external drives, the system just boots up to the main system. Also, holding down command, option,P,R no longer zaps the p-ram. the system just boots up.

Holding down the option key when booting my iMac lo longer shows me my bootable external drives, the system just boots up to the main system. Also, holding down command, option,P,R no longer zaps the p-ram. the system just boots up normally. Why do these key fonctions no longer work?

It could be your timing if on a bluetooth keyboard. I find it best to hit the keys as soon as i hear the chime, release and hit them again but this time holding them before the chime ends....like a fake pump in football.
But....you can always open up system preferences, startup disk, and select your bootable clone for booting. If it doesn't show up there, the Mac doesn't think it's bootable.

Why my Startup Manager does not appear when I hold the Option key when starting to boot.

I no longer have the Startup Manager appearing when I hold the Option key when starting to boot.
Instead, the system just boots into whichever OS was last selected in the Startup Disk Preference.
How to get back my Startup Manager so that I can boot up from my external hard disk.
Thank you.

Can you please run the following in terminal and post the output in your reply:
diskutil list; echo; nvram -p | grep boot-args; echo

Cannot Open A Library File Using the 'Option' key When Launching iTunes

I found that when I tried to open a different iTunes library file then my default by using the 'option' key when lanching iTunes that the iTunes Library file was greyed out.
I looked in the previous Library Folder and noticed that the old file had the extension .itl.
My solution was to add the extension .itl to the end of the of the file name of my iTunes Library files and things then worked when launching with the 'option' key. As an example 'iTunes Terry Library' became 'iTunes Terry Library.itl'. I applied this to all my iTunes library filles and all is well. Of course make a duplicate of the file you are going to change so you have a backup file.
I am using iTunes 10.4 and Sno-Leopard 10.6.8.

No, choose library works in Windows. The thread you linked to suggested that, on OSX at least, iTunes now behaves like almost every other application in that you can open a data file associated with the application and it opens that data file rather than a different one it had opened in the past. I was hoping things might have actually changed.
In short, holding shift or option while launching the app is a very clunky way of opening an alternative library given the standard behaviour of the GUI where "opening" a data file normally opens the application that can work with it.

Issue while generating MD5 if there are any special characters in the CLOB

Hi Guys,
I need your help...
We are using dbms_crypto.hash to generate the MD5 hash value for a CLOB that will be sent to other feeder systems. The feeder systems validate the file by generating the MD5 hash value on their end and compare with the MD5 generated in Oracle and accept the file only if the MD5 hash value matches.
The MD5 file matches between both the systems except in the case where there are special characters in the CLOB. Somehow, MD5 is prefixing Â character before any special character and calculating the MD5 value. In our case, our special characters being ®, §, ™, ©....
This is a high priority issue for us and it is holding our UAT.
We are using Oracle 11.2.0.2.0.
Your response is really appreciated.
Best Regards
Gupta

Welcome to the forum!
Whenever you post provide your 4 digit Oracle version.

See if my reply in this thread addresses your problem.
Re: MD5 HASH computed from DBMS_CRYPTO does not match .NET MD5
The fix in almost all of these cases is to understand that the Crypto package always converts everything to AL32UTF8 before hashing.
ALWAYS.
ALWAYS.
ALWAYS.
Unless the 'other' hash generators (substitute any generator you wish) do it the Oracle way you will NEVER get a match.
NEVER.
NEVER.
NEVER.
There are no workarounds.
