T420 or for the matter all new Thinkpad products losing quality/ Flimsy
Well once a proud owner of many thinkpads, starting with the first 386 version during my pre primary years, onto the t43 series, to the t60p series, to the t400 an t500 models and now an owner of a t420. i must say that over the last 12 months the quality in comparison to the other models prior to this one shows as a disgrace to the fall of grace of a once well known quality brand the Thinkpad.
Let me tell you, within the last 12 months of use i had my ejection mechanism fall out off place an non repairable on the cdrom , i was surprised at this. one of my battery lock in clips have come off, this is just through normal use, to and from work.My keys on the keyboard are getting how shoul i put it not responsive due... it as all come down to a cheap piece of crap for a Thinkpad T series model.
On another note when i had to upgrade my memory modules, i was dumb founded by the number of screws in comparison to the previous models of the once great T series line. I could also say that having an electronics engineering background. having a look at the circuitry, the Quality control is almost non existant. I noticed NOTICABLE rework on the motherboard, misaligned IC chips, solder balls between the legs. ... Just surprised at the level of **bleep**iness that i have notice a once true quality product degrade to.
IN ESSENCE I have gone back to my good old T60P bought a SSD hard drive for that. LENOVO THINKPADS once a CHOICE FOR ME. The t420 will most probably be the last that i will get. I look towards Dell Precision series.
I hope LENOVO turns back and allow quality to be once again the norm for the Thinkpad T series.
On another note, this is not only myself complaining about this. matter. I work for a well known telecommunications company within Australia. And they have made the shift to Dell Precisions due to the fact of low quality issues with the T series... Unfortunate
The conventional laptop market isn't growing, so manufacturers are squeezing as much out of the components as possible. Shareholders won't stand for non-growth, so you're stuck with the trend.

i have a Mac i5 and need to download the application 'Numbers' but everytime I try to do so, it says can't do as the ver 2.2 for the app needs new software 'Snow Leopard'. I don't want to upgrade but dont know what to do??
If your profile is correct you're already on the final version of Snow Leopard (10.6.8). Sure it wasn't Lion it was asking for?
If that's the only version available on the app store, you'll need to source a copy of the iWork '09 DVD - not cheap now - only available via Amazon or eBay etc. -
My wife and I get our iPhone 4s tomorrow. Should we put them both on the same Apple ID, or should I create one for her. All our apple products are on mine at this time.
The answer to this kind of depends on what you both want to do. Apple IDs can be used for multiple Apple services. For example you could both have your own iCloud Apple IDs (which I would suggest), but have only one iTunes Store Apple ID.
So think about how you will each use the iPhones then make your decision. Keep in mind that if you both use the same iCloud Apple ID you will receive each other's texts and emails and all the email, contacts and calendars will be the same. -
Question about the smell of new Apple products (in this case an iMac)
Hi!
I wonder what's up with the smell of new Apple products, because they all smell the same in my opinion. I got a new iMac last week and it had a special smell and i know i'm not the only one thinking this. Do Apple add this smell with a perfume to make it smell new and fresh, or is it some dangerous toxic fume from the plasic or something?
Regards TobiasThank you!
Of course everything has a smell, especially new things, but in my opinion Apple products have a much stronger smell than everything i ever owned. And as Diane Benoît replied below, see reacted heavily to her old mac (by the way, Diane im glad you don't have problems with your Mac any more).
I know iMac's are free from brominated flame retardant now, but are there any other flame retardants, or methods to avoid burning electronics, that Apple replaced the old one with?
I think my Mac have a kind of sweet smell, that is why i wonder if it's added to make it smell nice.
/ Tobias

Installing DsFW for the First Time, new tree?
I've been reading the documentation but there is some stuff I don't get.
It seems I can install into a new tree and choose the non-name-mapped deployment. Is this a popular choice?
Does this provide flexibility or limit it?
I read the following statement "Novell doesn't support installing other Novell products within a Domain Services for Windows (DSfW) partition." at Novell Doc: OES 11 SP1: Domain Services for Windows Administration Guide - Unsupported Service Combinations
I think that if I choose a non-name-mapped install then the entire new eDirectory tree will live inside the DSfW partition, or was that statement meant for name-mapped setups? Does that mean that we would not be able to install ZenWorks, Filr or GroupWise into the new tree? If true this suggests non-name-mapped setups are more limiting than name-mapped setups, and probably to be avoided.
Thanks for the free wisdom.
Background:
There is an existing Netware server 6.0 serving about 20 users as a file server but there doesn't appear to be any interest in migration or coexistance. A fresh clean tree is a core element of the plan so far. I'm thinking of three or four OES servers: Two DSfW servers (DHCP, DNS, eDir, domain controllers, SLP), a file server and a Filr server.
There is other stuff in the environment, including openSUSE DHCP and DNS, SLES application server, various other servers for databases and web stuff, Windows domain for 4 users to use Remote Desktop Services. A bunch of Windows desktops and a proliferation of mobile devices (hence interest in Filr is drive the change right now).
Hopefully over time the other servers will be part of the new eDirectory tree for authentication and ease of management.
If I choose a name-mapped setup, I think I need to install 4 or 5 servers: one eDirectory base server (Certificate Server and root partition), then at least one DSfW server (DHCP, DNS, eDir, domain controller), then file server and Filr server.Originally Posted by psahukar
Hi,
...snip...
1. Install OES CIFS server on the first server. This will give a new eDirectory tree with a file server.
2. Install 2 DSfW servers (using name mapped mode) into the eDirectory tree. You have the option to choose the top most container (i.e. whole tree) or a partition for the DSfW installation / configuration. DSfW will install DNS service on the first DSfW server by default. It is recommended to keep the DHCP server on a non-DSfW server.
3. Install the Filr server on the fourth server
Thanks for the recommendations, Pavreen.
Please confirm the main message you are conveying is that a name-mapped installating is best. Is it true that the reason this is best is to allow other Novell products (ZenWorks, for example) to be installed? Is it also true that non-name-mapped installs are rare and offer few (if any) advantages?
When you say, with respect to the DSfW servers, that I have the option to install DSfW using the top-most container, are you recommending that the second server be a DSfW server with DSfW in the top of the tree? This seems to be the thing that is against the rules according to Novell Doc: OES 11 SP1: Domain Services for Windows Administration Guide - Unsupported Service Combinations "Novell doesn't support installing other Novell products within a Domain Services for Windows (DSfW) partition." But it also the thing I'm sure I don't understand (and hence the post).
In my reading I didn't encounter a hint that DHCP should be separate from DSfW. DHCP conflicts with DSfW specifically or it introduces challenges more generally with other OES components?
The number of servers (all Xen PV on SLES) will be chosen to accomodate flexibility. So I think I will not make the CIFS server the first. The first server will be the permanent "Novell Certificate Server" and I think I should make that small and simple to be sure that future upgrades or restore operations are less likely to create challenges for such a critical, and seemingly inflexibly permanent, piece of eDirectory infrastructure.
What do you think of this modification to your recommendation:
1. First server is OES Novell eDirectory "Novell Certificate Server" + DHCP + iManager
2. Then two DSfW servers (DNS). Necessarily name-mapped. The partition question, which was the thing I was least certain about, is still uncertain to me.
3. Then one file server (NSS, CIFS and NCP). I'm also inclined to have a second DHCP as backup.
4. Then one Filr
5. Then probably a ZenWorks server in the further future -
Mail ask for the password all the time
Hello.
For the last month I´ve been experiencing problems with my mail. It ask me for the password every few seconds. I´ve have already tried all the solutions published at the help page in apple the site, but the problem is still on.
Could anyone of you give some help.
Many thanks.
PS: if someone could send me an answer in spanish, it could be easier for me.
Thanks.
IBook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.8)Hola Luis.
I’ll reply in English, amongst other reasons because that allows me to copy & paste between posts, but let me know if there is something you don’t fully understand. You can post in Spanish if you want. BTW, you can make your life easier in these forums by going to System Preferences > International and moving English to the top of the list. The next time you launch an application, it'll be all in English.
Open /Applications/Utilities/Keychain Access, choose Keychain First Aid from the application menu, and proceed to repair the keychain. If that doesn’t work, you may try removing the password entry from the keychain and letting Mail create it again.
Note that Mail often doesn’t correctly report what the problem really is. If Mail can connect to the server but cannot log into your mail account for some reason, it’ll ask for your password, regardless of whether that’s really the problem or not. Don’t keep entering the password every time, because that’s not the problem (click Cancel instead, and take the account back online afterwards).
Some ISPs refuse connection attempts if they are too frequent, for example, or limit the number of simultaneous connections that are allowed from the same IP address, or the account may have become full, or there might be a problem with the network, or there might be a problem with the server... If the latter (i.e. if there is a problem with the network or the server), the problem will probably fix itself after some time for no apparent reason.
Actually, if Mail asks for the password every few seconds, then you’re probably checking for mail too often, and that alone could be the reason you have this problem. What’s the time interval chosen in Preferences > General > Check for New Mail? If it’s set to Every minute, try changing it to Every 5 minutes.
Go to Apple Menu > System Preferences > Network, choose Network Port Configurations from the Show popup menu, and make sure that the configuration used to connect to Internet appears at the top of the list.
Also, try using a different method to connect to Internet, if possible, or connecting the computer to Internet as directly as possible, i.e. bypassing any routers that might be present, using an ethernet cable instead of wireless, etc., and see whether that makes a difference. -

Where do i find the older versions of ibooks for the iPad Gen1 new versions cannot work
Where can i find older versions of iBooks for the Gen1 iPad the newer versions require an OS upgrade Gen 1 cannot support?
Try downloading them with iTunes on your computer. Then go to the store on your iPad and, if the developer supports it, you should see a link to legacy versions.
Good luck. -
All other carrier S4 phones have the option to turn infinite scrolling on/off. However with Verizon there is no option and it is turned off. Every forum I go to says that you have to root the device to turn it back on. VERIZON are you going to listen to the myriad of people the would like this option, a basic option advertised for the Samsung S4? Please PLEASE PLEASE give us the option back.

For the mid month new joiner the annual Conveyance exemption is coming incorrectly
Dear All,
For one of our client, we have have faced a uniqe issue.
If any employee join in the mid of the month, his prorated conveyance amount ( wage type 2020) is coming correctly. Suppose an employee joined at 16th of the month, system is calculating his conveyance for that month as INR 400 and which is correct.
However in his tax calculation for that particular month, system is taking INR 400*(rest of the month of the FY) in the wage type /4E3. which is incorrect. Suppose he joined in 16th April , system is calculating tax exemption 400*12=4800
Now if we run next month payroll , system is caculating the exemption properly. i.e. INR 400 + 800* rest of the month of the FY,
Please help
Regards
TirthaHi Tirtha,
system is calculating perfectly.
first of all system check the no. of present days and accordingly it give the amount in the wage type /3C3 conveyance amount monthly and /3C4 will give Conveyance monthly exemption and it will multiply with no. of months to the fiscal year end and store in the wage type /4E3.
for example check for PF:
Every month PF amount store in WT /3F1 and send to /3F5 and this WT multiplied with No. of months and store the Annual amount in wt /3F6.

Is it possible for the labels of new fields to not line up with already existing fields?
I am attempting to create a form where some of the labels are longer than others. Unfortunately, it appears that all labels have to match up exactly with each other. So, when I create a new field and extend the length of the label, it extends the length of the labels on all other fields as well. Please tell me there's a way to fix this. It seems elementary that users would need lables of varying lengths at times.
All fields on the first column share the same column width.
If you have a field to the right of another first (making it not the first element on the row) then it can have it own label width.
