Suggested DDIC setting when not in use

Hi,
What would be the ideal setting for DDIC user when not in use ? Apparently DDIC cannot be locked unlike SAP*
Thanks

For a moment it felt as if I had seen that exact same text somewhere else before... (it is expected that the source of copy&pasted information is [referenced|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/EN/52/67179f439b11d1896f0000e8322d00/frameset.htm] )...

IPhone4 battery draining when not in use

am just wondering if anyone experiencing battery draining when not in use? i charge my iphone4 before going to bed and woke up this morning to realise that my battery had drain 22% on stand by... is this normal? can anyone confirm it to me please, thank you

Just an update guys --after draining (on standby) over 20% of my battery charge last week, it has risen to or about 40+% in the last couple of days. I haven't changed any settings or whatsoever. I had to charged it twice during the day yesterday and it was bloody frustrating. anyway, i went to the apple shop today and told them the problem... they scanned my iphone4's battery and it was evident and showed when was the last time it was charged and how much battery life has it lost throughout the day. After scanning my iphone we did not even have to discuss repair or do any setting or software checks. I was gobsmacked --as i did not have to ask for a replacement, I was immediately offered a swap to a brand new iPhone4... lucky me? umm, i don't know...maybe? But the thing is, they seemed to be aware of the problem and they are keeping a low profile on tackling the problem. so my suggestion is if anyone has a battery problem with their unit, take it to apple and have the battery scan. As such, i have to wait and see if this new unit will present the same problem, although i must admit, for some reason, this new unit has a slight different behaviour than my previous iphone4.
Other issues on my previous iPhone4:
1. frequently dropping signal --not a problem with the new replacement unit
2. if i turn off my "phone" feature on the multitasking bar, red dot appears on the phone icon and i couldn't make a call as it seemed blocked and it kept asking me to set-up the voicemail feature every time --again, not a problem with the new unit.
3. even my tomtom app has changed its behaviour, i have discovered new features without updating the app --strange isn't it?
4. playing NOVA game was a pain with the previous unit as i kept getting network problem and interrupting the game.
5. it kept shuffling my music when i'm using ipod whilst walking. imagine, hearing about 8 different tunes in a span of 5 seconds...
anyway, time will tell with this new unit as i have kept the same settings from my previous unit and uploaded my previous back-up data and apps. so it would be like having my old iphone4 and we'll see in the morning if it will drain on stand by as well --i hope not 'cos am getting really frustrated with it. oh, by the way, blue tooth feature don't work with my new replacement unit --NICE!!!

Should Wireless Router be turned off when not in use?

I successfully installed the Linksys Wireless G Broadband Router Model WRT54G. It was very easy.
I notice that it now appears to be "on" all the time, and I use my home PC & Laptop perhaps up to about only 2 hours a day. Should I be turning it off when not in use? Is it a potential security risk to always have it on? If I do turn it off, is the only way to unplug the power adapter? I can not locate any on/off button on the router.
Thanks,
Adam

You said your router was "very easy" to set up. I hope that this does not mean that you skipped setting up security. If your wireless router is not secured, having it on or using it is a security risk. If your router is secured, then it is OK to leave it on 24/7.
If your wireless is not secured, anyone in the area can log into your router and use your DSL line. At a minimum, this wastes your bandwidth. At a maximum, someone could send spam, visit child porn sites, distribute viruses, and give away copyrighted music --- all from a DSL account with your name on it!    Additionally, if your router is not secured, others can see what you are doing on the net, including seeing your bank account numbers, passwords, and credit card numbers. So my advice is ... secure your system.
In order to keep intruders off of your wireless system, you need to enable wireless security. To do this, pick an SSID and don't broadcast it. Encrypt your wireless system using the highest level of encryption that all of your wireless devices will support. Common encryption methods are:
WEP - poor  (see note below)
WPA - good
WPA2 - best
WPA and WPA2 sometimes come in versions of "personal" and "enterprise".   Most home users should use "personal". Also, if you have a choice between AES and TKIP, and your wireless equipment is capable of both, choose AES.
The wireless devices (computers, printers, etc.) that you have will need to be set up with the SSID, encryption method, and passwords that match those you entered in the router.
For additional security, on many routers, you can limit wireless access to just the MAC addresses of the wireless devices that you own. If possible, you should definitely use this feature.
And don't forget to give your router a new login password.
Also, when you pick your login password, SSID, and encryption key (or password or passphrase) you should use a random combination of capital letters, small letters, and numbers. An SSID, or a login password, should be 12 characters or more.  WPA and WPA2 passwords should be at least 32 characters.
Note below: Recently the FBI demonstrated that WEP can be broken in under 5 minutes using standard, internet available, cracking tools. This suggests that virtually all wireless users should upgrade their wireless equipment to WPA or better.

IPhone resets itself when not in use

I have an original iPhone which has been updated to 3.0. Since the update I've noticed that the phone will spontaneously restart itself when not in use. When this happens I'll notice the screen light up with the silver Apple logo and then go blank. This will happen repeatedly. While this is going on I can't use the phone until I plug it into the computer. Once iTunes does it's thing the phone will return to normal for a while - sometimes a day or two - before repeating this behavior. I have reset and restored the phone but without solving the problem. Apart from this everything seems to be working properly.
Any ideas?

Have you tried restoring and setting up as a new phone (i.e., not restoring from a backup)? Sometimes those backups bring along whatever is messing up your phone.

IMac (Oct 2009) keeps shutting down and restarting when not being used.

At least once a day, usually when not being used, I will see a dialog box that say computer had to restart due to a problem. data in problem report does not clearly state problem - many multi-page entries
Have reinstalled OS 10.8.2 once
this morning tried to restart with safe boot and had spinning beach ball for more than 15 minutes. shut down and restarted nin recovery mode. verified and repaired permissions (all seem to be related to Canon Pronter plug-ins- had an error message yesteday asking if I wanted to repair printer software and I said yes). Printer seems to be working. Had one statement that indicated a screensaver issue-see below
a while back, iTunes album art screensaver hung up with just two album covers flipping in all rows and columns.
after a few restarts, it started working correctly again..- yesterday I set screen saver to never, but still had a crash this morning

Here's the latest panic report. BTW, I ran for a while from an external system boot - very sloww (thumbdrive), but nothing happened. However, when I retarted I tried to restart in Safe Mode and the launch never completed (30 minutes without start)

My ext HDs spin too hard when not in use , how do I slow em up ?

some externals have the smarts about them but others just wizz too hard when not in use , old macs had a processor setting I could change , but not MBP
I should be able to tell these HDs to chill till I call on them right ? thanks for any help[ you can offer me .
cheers R

You don't. You have no control over the spin rate of any hard drive.
To encourage the external drive(s) to spin down when they aren't in use, System Prefs > Energy Saver > check the box for "Spin down hard disks when possible." But you'll find that the OS checks in on those drives quite frequently, spinning them back up again. So the likelihood of their spinning down very often or ever staying quiescent for long is small.

Should I shut down my computer when not in use

should I shut down my computer when not in use, overnight for instance?

Hello! Leaving it on 24/7/365 is perfectly acceptable. You may save some electricity but personally I think you'll pay for it with a more troublesome system. I do however set the monitors to go to sleep. I like the no startup lag time of running 24/7/365. That said, if I lived in an area prone to electrical outages or if my location was prone to lightening strikes I'd probably shut it down and unplugged. Of course with it being unplugged the pram battery may run down. These old G4's have been running 24/7/365 for years now. I do try to restart every few weeks just for good measure! In the end it's your preference. The hardware works best when a constant temperature is maintained. Tom

Imac shuts down when not in use

I purchased my 21.5" imac July 9, 2011 with Snow Leopard. No problems for 1 month. Then about August 12th or so, my imac started to mysteriously "shut down" when not in use. I'll be working on it, then get up to go pour myself a cup of coffee or something...then I come back to my computer that has now shut off. It is NOT asleep...it is OFF. So I turn it back on and it is fine. This has happened a few times now within a week. Anyone else have this problem?
By the way, I am now running Lyon, as of August 18th. When the imac shut down, I was usually viewing photos or on the web.
thanks!

First thing I would try is to reset the SMC, it can help with power related problems. Shut down the Mac and unplug everything including the power. Press and hold down the power button for 10 seconds. Plug in the computer but be careful not to press the power button as you are plugging it in. Wait a few seconds and turn it on. Hopefully it won't happen again. There is always Apple Support. Don't let the problem persist until your free phone tech support has expired (3 months). I would also recommend using the iMac with an UPS, and at the very least, a high quality surge protector.
If you have MS Word or a similar word processor you could try enabling the autosave feature and set it to 1 minute intervals. Keep a document open and if you come back to the computer and it has shut down, you can look at the last time the document was updated and know what time the comptuer turned itself off. It could be useful in diagnosing the problem.

Phone is using data when not in use. How do I make it stop?

My iPhone 4S is using data when not in use. Any thoughts on how to make it stop?

Hello Oakleymp
You could always turn off cellular data in Settings to get it to stop using data while it is on standby. Another option to troubleshoot the issues is to reset all settings, go to Settings > General >Reset > Reset All Settings.

Comuter shut down too soon when not in use.

My computer shuts down temporality in just a few minutes when not in use. How can I change the time to a different setting?

Can you please post this type of question over at

Thanks!

My iMac will not sleep when not in use.

The screen will go dark, but the disk will not sleep when not being used. I have restored defaults and set energy settings to do so and still no luck. Any thoughts? Was this part of a current update? It just started to not sleep a few weeks ago.

Thanks for your help regarding my computers sleep disorder. I wanted you to know that after many hours of searching, I found that I had downloaded a program called Growl with my Belkin router when I installed it. I removed this Growl program and finally my computer will sleep on it's own. I wanted to give you this info just in case you come across this problem again.
Thanks again!

HT4623 my phone does not dim when not in use ?

-my iphone does not diim when not in use, the problem start two days ago, it is only 12 months old ?

Hey Teltee,
If you haven't already, I would double-check your Auto-Lock settings and make sure they haven't changed:
Auto-Lock
Locking iPhone turns off the display. Nothing happens if you touch the screen. You can still receive calls and text messages, an you can adjust the volume and use the mic button on the iPhone Stereo headset when listening to music or on a call.
Set the amount of time before iPhone locks
Choose General > Auto-Lock and choose a time.

WHEN TO USE SYS_REFCURSOR AND WHEN NOT TO USE REFCURSOR

SYS_REFCURSOR is a Weakly Defined Cursor
DECLARE emp_refcur SYS_REFCURSOR;
when this is so simple
why this
DECLARE TYPE emp_cur_type IS REF CURSOR RETURN emp%ROWTYPE; my_rec emp_cur_type; ?
Can anyone explain in what situations we should prefer among these ..when both can give same result set .

> WHEN TO USE SYS_REFCURSOR AND WHEN NOT TO USE REFCURSOR
When the requirements define that one is better suited than the other.
There are no hard and fast rules about when to use a specific tool. There are however basic concepts of what the purpose of the tool is, and what typical problems the tool can address.
Ref cursors in PL/SQL.. usually not the best of ideas. Ref cursors are designed for client-server processing.
1) The client makes a request for data/information.
2) PL applies the back-end server logic and construct a SQL statement for the client.
3) PL passes the SQL to the SQL engine where it is parsed and a SQL cursor created.
4) PL passes a reference handle to SQL cursor back to the client
5) The client can now fetch the rows output from the cursor.
Advantages.
- The client does not need to know SQL, db structures, business logic, etc
- The PL code can be improved, modified, new business logic added, without even touching a single byte of client code
So what are the advantages where the "client" in the above is another PL/SQL program? None really.
A "real" client (an external one like Java, C#, Delphi, etc) can receive the ref cursor handle and dynamically at run-time determine the projection (output) of the cursor.
PL code cannot (unless using the latest 11g features). In PL code, a ref cursor is actually implemented as a DBMS_SQL cursor. A DBMS_SQL cursor is to PL code what ref cursor is to Java/C#/etc.
So whether you define a strongly typed or weakly typed ref cursor in PL/SQL code... typical response is "so what?" as ref cursors are not really intended for PL code. Not that there are exceptions - they do come in handy at times.. but as exceptions to the rule.
So my response is "so what?" - it is more important to *correctly" chose what type of client cursor data type you want to use to interact with the back-end SQL cursor. Once that decision has been made (based on technical sound logic), then one can look at (minor) issues such as weak vs. strong ref cursors.

Iphone 5 battery suddening draining when not in use

Had my iphone 5 for about 3 months and was very pleased with the battery life. But literally out of no where the battery started draining super fast. Dropping 15% in 30 minutes when not in used. Here's the deal...nothing has changed ie locations, email, icloud etc. And quite honestly what is the freaking point of having those things if it drains the battery at unreasonable speeds. So I completely frustrated with Apple for at least not saying "we understand theres and issue and we are working on it." I will never switch cuz I'm an idiot Apple diehard but there have been so many bugs of late it's just frustrating. Also at the same time of the fast drain when I swipe to delete a text the delete button dissapears within one second. Both issues came on at the same time. I'm trying reseting the battery, restoring, unchecking notifications and a bunch of other features which is so stupid... whats the point of having a smart phone if you can't use the features? So I am going to demand a new phone and I know the Apple Genius guys who are so far from genius its pathetic are going to say nothing is wrong with the phone haha, just like the did with the super slow WiFi connections I get...they were completely unaware that there was a problem with iphones and Wifi cuz of course at the Apple Store the Wifi flies when they test it there but of course once you go back to your home or business the Wifi is back to super slow. Wow the things we put up with. Anyway, if anyone has any suggestions please reply.
