The oracle_valdated RPM: keep it in your toolbox

A quick tip that seems 'undocumented' that is a fantastic timesaver for anyone installing the Oracle 11g database: you can save a lot of time using the 'oracle_validated' RPM package from the public-yum server. (From what I've gathered, this was offered through Unbreakable Linux support - but is now 'free', which is particularly handy for those of us developing that might not have the support contract in hand...
Quick instructions:
1) Go to http://public-yum.oracle.com. Follow the instructions to set up the public yum server for your OEL version.
2) Make sure to enable access to the repository by setting the flags to 'enabled' both for your version (your update level) plus the addons, etc.
3) Run 'yum list' to verify.
4) Then as root, 'yum install oracle_validated'
This package finds the dependencies needed (well, most of them) plus creates the accounts and sets the kernel parameters needed to install the Oracle 11g database. If you are setting up an environment from scratch, you can ignore the steps up to 'runInstaller' by using the validated RPM.
(On an install of OEL 5.5 running under VMWare, I had to install only two other packages prompted by the installer.)

FWIW - the proper name is "oracle-validated".. note the dash, not the underscore. ;-)

Does the app store keep track of your purchases? Can you re-download?

Had a company laptop & iPhone. Bought some apps, had them on both. Lost the job and hence the laptop & iPhone. Bought a new iPhone. Installed iTunes on home PC. Can I get access to the purchased apps even though I can't access the original devices anymore? Or do I have to buy them again?

You do not need to buy them again. Once you have purchased an app, you can download it for free at any time. The only trouble will be finding your apps. On iTunes on your computer, go to the "iTunes Store" and click on My Account and navigate to purchase history after logging in.

Do you have a profile lock file in your profile folder? If so, delete it and see if TB runs properly:

Perhaps try the "Error 3001," "-42110," or "5103" section in the Specific Conditions and Alert Messages: (Mac OS X / Windows) section of the following document:

First, for the forum view issue. Go to My Settings (on the right) and in General Settings change the Topic Page View to Flat. Click Save. Posts should show up in the order they were written.
Have you seen this?

Also, since you said that you've gone through the 5 Rs, I would assume that you used the iPod Updater to restore (since there is no other way of doing it and you don't "run" the 5 Rs).
When you restored, did you use the latest updater?
You may also want to try formatting the iPod through Windows. Connect it to the computer and when it appears in My Computer right click it and go to format. Does anything happen? Can you format the iPod through Windows?

HT4623 I've tried to intall ios 7 but on the activation part on the phone i keep getting a message saying 'your iphone could not be activated becayse rge activation server cannot be researched. Try connecting your iphone to itunes to activate'

I've tried to intall ios 7 but on the activation part on the phone i keep getting a message saying 'your iphone could not be activated becayse rge activation server cannot be researched. Try connecting your iphone to itunes to activate, or try again in a few minutes'. However when i plug my phone into the computer itunes has an error message saying 'We could not complete your itunes store request. The network connection was rese. Make sure your network connection is active and try again'. How do I do this? Thanks.

unfortunately no, a million people are attempting to update their phones right now, and thus activate them. Patience will have to suffice.
For the future, I would recommend not updating essential work devices on the launch day

Which Fx version? When you uninstalled Fx, did you reboot computer before reinstall?
Also, check for / delete any leftover files in the Fx programs install folders, before reinstall?
Is your profile in the default location or custom location?
Have you tried creating a new, completely clean profile - to test (then make sure to select that profile to start Fx - from the Profile Manager)? (no addons or plugins installed).
Does the user acct (that Fx fails under) have access ("rights") to all locations - especially for Fx profiles location?

Enable the extension to keep chrome bookmarks up to date with the safari bookmarks on your iphone

on my laptop icloud comes up and tells me i need to enable the extension to keep chrome bookmarks up to date with the safari bookmarks on your iphone! if someone could help me i would be grateful !!

Once you click "get new recovery key" all data on your sync account is erased forever. There is no way to get that back. If you have data on your iPhone you cannot move it from your iPhone to desktop Firefox. the iPhone sync is 1-way only. Unless you have a Firefox profile somewhere, you will ahve to manually rebuild your bookmarks.

For possible causes of this error, and how to troubleshoot it see [[Firefox is already running but is not responding]].
