Suggestion for new Forum

Hi. I have noticed several questions in the other forums regarding accessories and products to buy for their ipod, ect. these really are not technical questions and do not really belong in the (for example) ipod forum, but have no other place to go. So i was thinking that a forum where people could discuss products and what works well for them and suggest these to other people looking for a product. Also, this could/would be a place for people to ask what would be something good to buy to, lets say, listen to their ipod through their home stereo and or charge. This is just an idea, and i hope it is something to be seen later here in Apple Discussions. Anyone else that thinks that this or something else like it is a good idea, i would very much like to see your input. Thanks. *KatBT

  • Suggestion for new Forum - Software Quality Assurance & Testing

    Hi - I'm active in ASUG and a SIG Chair for Software Quality Assurance SIG.  I'm new to SDN and looked around a bit for where topics related to Software QA, Testing, Test tools & methodologies, etc. would be posted and discussed.  I haven't found any relevant forums.  A couple postings on SAP TAO (test tool) landed in the Solution Manager forum... looks like they were searching for a relevant home too.
    We have good content and discussions on these topics on asug.com and I'd like to facilitate bringing some of these topics to the larger SDN community.  I started a blog, we sponsor webinars, etc.  What would you think of having a forum on SDN called Software Quality Assurance & Testing?  Or are there other suggestions for where I would start discussing this?  Maybe the forum's out there already but I just can't find it?
    Thanks!

    Count me in!
    Currently the security aspects of good software development don't have a real home either, and are distributed over SCN in a rather thin and adhoc fasion by a few folks.
    I am sure that such a forum would attract a lot of new attention to SCN on the customer side, as it is important for them.
    It would also be irrefutable that the SCN Rules of Engagement are applied strictly to such a forum
    Cheers and good idea!

    Given that we've got people posting about iPhones in the Podcasts forum, credit cards in the Using ASC forum, anything under the sun in the AppleWorks forum, and trying to treat any forum as a social networking service ('Hi, my name is....') I'm sure you're right.

  • Suggestion for New Forum Improvement/Upgrade

    To the PTB:
    Would it be possible under the "my posts" section to change the little blue bubbles that indicate,
    "New content since your last visit"
    and "Updated content since your last visit"
    to different colors? Make each one an obvious separate color one Red and one Blue, or Red and Green, etc...
    My eyes are good, but not good enough to discern a full bubble from a 1/2 bubble..
    thanks.

  • Need for new forum/category

    Considering that this forum/category (HCM Payroll Germany, Austria & Switzerland (DACH)) has been created more than a month ago and that not a single thread has been posted in it, and considering that the forum/category "ERP HCM (HR)" often sees more than 60 threads with postings per day,
    could you please consider to create at least one or two new forum/category to help sub-divide the ERP HCM (HR).
    Possibly ERP HCM - Payroll and ERP HCM - Time Management (and rename the other one ERP HCM - HR) ?
    Remi
    i have moved the thread from (HCM Payroll Germany, Austria & Switzerland (DACH) to suggestion and comments forum for better responses from sCN
    Edited by: Sikindar on Oct 25, 2010 12:50 PM

    And I have tried to post something in the "Idea Place", both from work and from home, and keep getting problems logging on, even when I'm already logged-in through the SAP Community Network.
    Since my Passport has expired, I'm trying to get a new one from Marketplace, but i couldn't find the link yesterday.
    As I have mentioned before, I believe at least one new thread is required due to the daily volume of postings.
    I had initially posted in the  "HCM Payroll Germany, Austria & Switzerland (DACH)" thread, then tried to post it in the "ERP HCM (HR)", and I will try to post it again in the "Idea Place" when possible.
    While in the "Idea Place", I'll have to ask why the forum "SAP ERP HCM - Payroll North America" mentions that it is for SAP, ERP and HCM, while none of the others mention SAP, and some like the new "HCM Payroll Germany, Austria & Switzerland (DACH)"  don't include ERP in their description.

  • Suggestions for new Sci-Fi on Vision

    Hi Guys,
    The Vision Programming Team have asked for Sci-Fi TV suggestions from Vision users, that we would like to see available via On Demand.
    So, via an email from Mod DavidM, I was asked to start a new thread, because they want our feedback. And 'FRINGE' has now been added to the Sci-Fi category (via the 'Serious Lack of' thread). So they do listen!
    So to kick off...my last post on the other, main Sci-Fi thread...
    Sci-Fi I'd like to see on Vision...
    The DUNE and CHILDREN OF DUNE TV mini series (original novels by Frank Herbert).
    They are both donkey's years old (2000 & 2003) and so wouldn't cost that much to purchase.
    Both mini series won numerous Emmy awards and were also rated as two of the top three highest-rated programs ever to be broadcast on the Sci-Fi Channel. 
    Battlestar Galactica. Both the TV mini series and the full TV series (the highest ever rated show on the Sci-Fi Channel), which Sky aired between 2003 - 2009. Pure quality.
    Also, as another plus, none of the above have ever been aired on British terrestrial television. So lots of potential for new viewers.
    Anyone else with any gems you would like to see?

  • Suggestions for new external HD

    I have a G4 powerbook with 80 GB of HD which is pretty much maxed out. Looking for an external HD to transfer pics on to, and to do some backup with. (Currently i use my iDisk for backup of my Documents folder, so haven't really needed Backup). Any suggestions for a good ext HD though? LaCie? Toshiba?
    Also, I'm thinking I should upgrade my 512 of memory to full gig of memory. All this doesn't need me to lead me down the path of a new MacBook instead, does it?!

    GoBraves:
    Since you have a PowerPC Mac you should be sure to get a Firewire external HDD. This will enable you to make a bootable clone which will do double duty as a full backup and as an emergency boot drive.
    Be sure that the HDD that you get is larger enough. Since they drives are now quite affordable I would not suggest anything less than 250 GB. You can partition this clone your HDD to a partition approximately the size of your internal HDD.
    The element in a Firewire Drive that fails most often is the firewire bridge. You need to get a drive with the more reliable Oxford 911+ chipset like one of these external firewire HDDs at OWC.
    Good luck.

  • Suggestions for new iMac, hard drive and Thunderbolt vs FW800 vs USB3?

    Ordering a new iMac 27" and leaning toward fusion drive,  and wondering if anyone has any suggestion or experiance with this drive? Any suggestions for drives would be welcome.
    I am going to have to decide what to do as far as storage and I assume USB3 will be the best choice - been using FW800 and lots of new things coming.
    Thanks for any input and suggestions.
    Don

    anybody have any comments on the use of Thunderbolt vs USB3? I am using FW800 not and will be changing my 2 external drives. I have to keep FW800 on them so I am able to daisey-chain them. My use is normal and wondering if I should stay with USB3 & FW800 for external or make the TM drive a Thunderbolt. Those seem to be priced higher just wanted some suggestions, recommendations.
    Thanks,
    Don

  • Suggestions for new features & improvements to LCCS/ICS service

    Firstly Hello, I am James from Influxis. if you got a suggestion for a possible improvements or new features to LCCS/ICS feel free to add your suggestions below and we look into it.
    Thanks,
    James

    Hi James,
    With the offering from Adobe, it was possible to have a free account with $15/month of service offered.
    It was really useful to developp applications, or to make demos applications for clients, and then paying when the application takes off only.
    Does Influxis plan to offer something similar?

  • Petition for new forum - wireless mu

    I want to start a petition for Creative to begin a new forum dedicated to the Wireless Music product. These discussion forums are nearly useless for the wireless music. If the Wireless Music had it's own forum I think we would see many more posts of problems, and possible get some attention from Creative on solving them. Please vote to start up this new forum.

    Wizard,
    We probably won't get our own forum, but... One thing I've found is that the Subject line of all messages about wireless music contain the word "wireless". I've built a URL address that I now have in my IE Favorites that does the job for me. It gets all messages with the word "wireless" in the subject line and lists them in descending order by date. This is as close as I can get you to what you want without SoundBlaster giving us our own forum. You may need to re-assemble this to a single line link...

    Hope this hel

  • Password reset for new forum

    I had to set up a new account to get into the new forums.  Everytime I use my old sign-in and password, it tells me that I must reset my password and an email has been sent.  I never get that email.  When I comment on one of the old posts that I had also commented on from that sign-in, I get email updates at the old address.  I can't even make them stop.  I can't find anywhere on here to contact someone for help.
    Verizon is fast becoming my least favorite company in the world.

    I tried to log-in a short while ago, as well, and got a message that the NEW Forum requires a Password re-set.  I did, however, get the e-mail which you referred to, but when I used the links in the e-Mail from VZW to attempt to re-set my Password it responded that the "token" (aka temp password) was "invalid" and would not allow me to change my Password from the "temp" one to my newly requested/re-set one.  I tried several times using the same and different methods to use the "change" page they provided - to no avail.
    However, I went back to the Forum page and I was logged in - go figure.  I am replying to this using my old log-in P'word and it didn't ask me to re-set this time.  I can't understand this but that is what I experienced.

  • Suggestions for new router/switch

    I have a wired Ethernet network in my office, and have been using a Linksys BEFSR81 router with it since installation. The following machines are connected:
    MacPro early 2009 OSX.5.7
    G5 2.0 dual OSX.5.7
    iMac flat panel 700 mHz OSX.4.11 (2 identical machines)
    HP 2300n printer
    Brother multifunction printer/fax/copier
    The router is dying and needs to be replaced. The whole network is hard wired but I could use a wireless router (e.g. Linksys WRT310) with a switch (I need at least 6-7 ports total. The selection of wired-only routers is very limited; what would people suggest for replacing the Linksys BEFSR81?

    Check these pages out first on how to install. NOTE, to look for the"GL" version, as the G, GL, GS, GX are all on the same page.
    http://www.dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/Installation
    http://www.dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/Linksys_WRT54G/GL/GS/GX
    http://www.dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/Index:FAQ
    For the GL, you need to flash 2 firmwares initially in the beginning.
    You first need to flash a mini generic (or micro); just go with mini, to the router first. Then after the mini is installed, flash the standard generic.
    To easily find the right versions. Go to the dd-wrt homepage, and then look for the tab that says "supported hardware". Click on that and type in: WRT54GL (which is your router name, the one I recommended). The model GL model will show up, and click on it. There you will have all the firmwares that can be used with the WRT54GL.
    There are a few different ones, but the ones you need to download are the "mini generic" AND "standard generic" (non-usb standard generic, if you're connecting through ethernet. Only if you use usb to connect to the internet then the usb version). Look at the file name to confirm.
    Flash mini first, then standard second. And you only have to do this once.
    Make sure to read through the above installation guide carefully, and just basically take your time. Some things to look out for are mainly just 2 things:
    (1) Doing 30/30/30 hard-resets before AND after flashing.
    (2) Use Internet Explorer to do the initial flash. DO NOT use firefox (maybe not even safari). This is only for the initial flash with the linksys firmware on. Once dd-wrt firmware is on, any browser will do. This is in the install guide, but basically any PC with IE will do fine. If you don't have access to a PC, you can even use the "old" IE for mac. That will work too.
    Again just take your time, read things, and double check them. It's actually a very easy process after you've done it once.
    Reply back if you need any help

  • Suggestions for new apps-where?

    I don't know, if this forum is monitored by the development staff, but I'll post my suggestions here in case they do.
    I would be nice to have optional ballon-tips when a new song is played.
    I would also be nice, to have some icons in the context menu of the taskbar-icon for play, next song, previous song.
    cheers

    well i would very much like to see a check box in the edit info that allows you to add a file from a podcast into your main music library in your ipod. i find it rather frustrating to see that i have 2 seprate file librarys now.

  • Suggestion for new package management scheme

    As was talked about in the INCOMING thread, Arch is growing and the devs are having trouble keeping up with maintaining packages. Arch is becoming disorganized and messy.
    Well, Xentac and I were discussing this for a while, and we both seem to like a voting system. Arch shouldn't try to maintain every package out there, it's simply a waste of effort. If only one or two people want a package, they can build it themselves, it's not hard with ABS.
    Arch devs should focus on keeping packages high quality, up to date, etc. They can't do this if there's 10,000 packages. So the solution would be that a package won't be included in the official repos (current, extra, unstable) unless it gets a certain number of votes, showing that lots of people really want the package, and it's "essential".
    I don't know how many votes a package would need, but that's a little thing. I would suggest all packages in Extra/Unstable initially go up for this voting (once we implement it) and we make the vote quota be a little lower for this initial slimming, and that'll cut down the repos right there. All those packages that no one uses (that wont even get one vote) can be cut away. People can always vote them back if they become popular.
    I don't want to have to do things like KDE, GNOME, etc myself, but I really don't mind maintaining my own little customizations, like Rhythmbox w/ XINE support (instead of Gstreamer). This vote system simply makes sure that a package is worth the developers time.
    This goes with my idea of Arch as the perfect "Base" distro. People can build what they want on top of it.
    This idea would also remove STAGING, as Arch wouldn't be accepting outside packages (though you're free to run your own repo or post PKGBUILDs on the forum). TESTING would be still used of course.
    Suggestions?

    I haven't really seen a single post in this thread that is without some merit, or at least an attempt at input.
    The great thing about not being a larger distro is that the situation isn't as pressurized.  Still, though, we (meaning the community AND developers) still obviously want Arch to be the best it can be and that's what this thread is about.
    So...are any of the ideas mentioned here feasible?  What do you think would be the best solution to creating a package release system that can handle Arch's current growth?
    What about implementing a vote-based system for everything not in current?  Would this be done with a web-based interface by using "submitrequest/vote" or something...obviously only registered users should be voting, right?
    Anyway, I think a great job is being done and this thread is simply a positive indication of the vitality of the community.  I think most of us fully recognize the resources of our developers and are simply wanting to find a way for them to bring us the best possible product.  Arch rules!
    I agree. I think what we should do is just take this time that we have while Arch is still young and not as well known among the Linux community, and try to make it great, relieving the pressures that we'd get a lot of later (not to say that we wouldn't get any, just less, hopefully).
    As for the package setup, isn't there some way that we could write some system to do this? I had mentioned it before. And, I just came up with a small system. It would work like this:
    We get one main server, whose "job" would be to create and store packages, and users could download from that server to install, etc. Now, whenever someone on the package management team finds an updated version of a package, they could log in to a special area of the site meant specifically for those developers. Then, using the special program on the website/server, they could link to the .tar or .bz2 that contains the source and submit it, along with the file's information that would be included with the package when you install it (file name, version, etc.) into the web-based form. Then, they click submit, and the server processes that file after downloading it, runs a makepkg-type thing on it, and stores the produced package in a "Fresh" repository. Then, the developer can download the file and opt to test it. If they're sure that it's okay, then they can replace the new file over the old one.
    Just an idea, tell me what you think... :?
