Things you need to know before updating

I have seen that more and more users come with a lot of problems after they try to update their devices. These problems are due to unaware of how to properly and carefully prepare the phone before and during the update.Always make sure that:
Battery level: Should be at least at 60~70% charged ( SUS or PCC advice you to have it at least at 50%, but to ensure better performance, keep it well above 50%).
Backup your contacts, data, apps, etc you can use PCC, MyphoneExplorer or Alternatives on How to backup Xperias; it is recommended to use a computer to backup your media (music, videos, photos).
USB: The USB cable should not be disconnected at any time, if the computer stopped recognizing there is NO possibility that the USB cable to disconnect during the process (as this will result in an incomplete install, which will only make more trouble for you).
Power outages: If you know you live in an area that is prone to blackouts (electric failures) and/or slow internet service/connection, try to look for other places to update; as some updates need a reliable and fast internet connection, the update file could be up to 1 GB.
Follow the steps: Carefully follow the steps provided by the update tool whether it’s SUS or PCC.
Notes:
Some users encountered issues with PCC on Windows 8 and Windows 8.1.To overcome these issues, download SUS.
There are instances when SUS does not show all phone models. In these cases, you need to run it in COMPATIBILITY MODE with Windows 7.
For all kind of questions, issues contact any of the support members on the forum.
Have fun with your devices!

  • MacBook Pro....things you need to know before you buy!!!

    Helpful hints before you buy your MacBook Pro 15 or 17 inch:
    1. New MacBook Pro...does not have a firewire 400 port!!. If you have to transfer data from an old (2 years old) MacBook Pro to new one...need a 800 firewire cable or a 400 to 800 cable!!
    2. New MacBook Pro with HD Cinema 30 inch. The two items are not compatible unless you purchase the $99 Dual (not single), I repeat Dual..."Mini Display Port to Dual-Link adapter:
    http://store.apple.com/us/product/MB571Z/A?fnode=MTY1NDA3Ng&mco=MTA4NDU1NDM
    The reason I am posting this is that I bought a MacBook Pro 15 inch on Monday and I specifically told the Apple people at the store what I had: 2 year old MacBook Pro and Cinema HD and what I would need and they sold me the mini single adapter. Nothing worked. Went to the store 3 times and no one could help me. Finally a guy from Australia, on this forum, was able to answer my call for help!!! I actually had to take his email into the store and show it to the Apple folk and they finally got me the correct adapter. Today is Friday, 4 days later and I am finally able to work on a project that has been on hold while I figured out something fairly simple...so much for these "Apple genius people." Just think the problems I would have had if I had an older Mac laptop or a PC laptop?!?@!

    Hi kleeks,
    Glad you got it sorted in the end!
    To be fair, most of the Genius bar people are very good and your experience was probably not typical, but it is also worth remembering that some of us here have been using Macs since before some of the Geniuses were even born, so we often know a thing or two that they may not have cottoned on to yet! When in doubt, a second opinion here can often be well worth obtaining.
    Really glad you have it running as it should now.
    Cheers

  • What you need to know before buying an antenna

    Isn’t it time you upgraded to an antenna? Wait… what? Upgrade to an antenna? Whether or not you’re a cord cutter (meaning you’ve cancelled your monthly television service) you might find that adding an antenna to your entertainment viewing space can be a great upgrade for a variety of reasons. Whatever those reasons are, here’s what you need to know before buying an antenna.
     

    I don't set out to sell anything, I'm an independent writer tasked with writing stuff about things to inform people. We link stuff to help people find things if they want to buy them, but the above isn't a sales pitch, it's info to help people figure out if they want or need something. 
    I didn't know that there was a cabal of antenna dealers who have been promulgating a myth (as a writer: nicely done there) about the nature of NTSC and ATSC; I hadn't ever considered that the antenna market was that large. When I received the request to write an article about antennas I was actually surprised; antennas don't have the support of major telecommunications companies and I sincerely doubt that there's going to be a run on them because of this article. I saw this as a bit of a public service opportunity to talk about a technology that a small segment would be interested in. 
    Anyway, I'm not sure we're going to get much farther on this; yes Best Buy sells antennas, but no, they didn't ask for an ad. They asked for an article that focused on how these antennas work and what to look for. Thank you for adding your insight about ATSC - I think that was actually covered in paragraphy three, but it's nice to see it spelled out more directly.
    Have a nice day - and if you'd like to discuss this directly, please send me a DM on twitter @thetechnogram

  • Things You Need To Know about old= New iMac

    1) Your HP All-In-One printer/scanner/copier - will it work with this new Leopard iMac? Maybe. I struggled with the all-in-one Printer Scanner Copier PSC 2355 for hours, and that includes reading the discussion forums on Apple's website. Apple support will tell you to call HP. HP will tell you to call Apple, or to check back for updated drivers. This was unacceptable. I finally crossed my fingers and loaded HP drivers for "Tiger", the previous OS version. Hey, the PSC 2355 works perfectly. Hope you have success also.
    (2) PPT and PPS files in email. If you do not have Microsoft Office and PowerPoint, you need to know this: iMac comes with a trial version of Keynote and a trial version of PowerPoint software. If you receive a PowerPoint slide show from a friend, and you click on it to view it in Mail, Keynote may open up, for the first month or so. But if you don't buy keynote, this will eventually stop working. If MS PowerPoint opens up, same trouble - it may work a month or so. On my machine, the trial version actually locked up the iMac at the "Splash Screen". And if you don't buy Keynote, MS PowerPoint or MS Office for Mac, then your last hope for seeing PPT and PPS files is "Quicklook" which doesn't step through slides one at a time, but presents them as a long document. Not so great. Our solution was (A) delete the trail versions, and (B) buy a family pack of iWork and then everyone gets Keynote. Too bad the PPT and PPS music doesn't work.
    (3) Moving old iMac (circa 2001) files to new iMac. This worked very nicely and seamlessly - all the music, photos, passwords, bookmarks, email moved smoothly from old iMac to new iMac. Only thing is... I think some old crap also moved. Old stuff that will never work in Leopard such as OS 9 apps and games. Even found some old fonts moved. THUS, we received an error "Helvetica narrow substituted for Helvetica which is corrput". Apple support was useless, telling me to reinstall the entire system, which did not solve the problem. After reading Apple discussions, someone suggested copying the fonts from the system folder to the user's library folder. Problem goes away, all is well.
    (4) Thus, once you get these kinks worked out, you will LOVE this new iMac. built in camera, mic, fantastic screen and color rendition, fast processor, wonderful iLife apps, and the whole experience. Hope my comments help you transition into your new Mac Life.
    John C

    I have my Mini Mac with Leopard 10.5.1 for about 3 weeks. My learning curve looks like a dead man's EKG, thus my simplistic question: OpenOffice or NeoOffice? I basically write and have old files rescued from my Windows 98 written in Word 2000. For my purposes, is one office program preferable to the other?
    Thanks.

  • Things you need to know about 6280

    Hi everybody, I used to have a 6680 and I say this with regret. Why? I gave it to my girlfriend as a gift. Now that was a good sturdy functional phone. Now I bought a 6280 from Vodafone. I wanted a N70 but the Vodafone representative recommended this one. I chose to go with the 6280 because the N70 looked a little bit too fragile. She also said there are no significant differences. Well, she couldn’t be more wrong. Let me tell you why. The first thing I should mention is that 6280 is not a symbian phone! This, for who knows what it means, it is a lot. I wasn’t aware. You cannot switch between applications for one. So now since I bought it, I gave it a go, see what it is all about. Nice graphics, big screen, no problems (I read here somebody had some). The first annoying thing that hit me is the back light. Goes out in an instant. Or 10 seconds they say. Depends on how you measure time. The problem is you cannot adjust that. Neither the contrast. Nor the luminosity. Some people find these features useful. Nokia seems doesn’t. Some people said on this forum that the sliding front does not have a good grip. Mine seem to do. Navigating through folders is somewhat frustrating but this is subjective. Another thing you should know is that you cannot set the memory card as the default storage space and the phone memory is small. Just about 5MB free with … nothing on it. But I guess you can get around that and be happy with what you have. Now for the real problems. One big issue for me was synchronizing with Outlook. I got it working in the first try. No problems there. But when checking the contact list on the phone … well, disappointment. The 6280 does not record company name, job title and birthday. This is a huge problem for somebody well organized like me. Birthdates are saved in calendar but they do not show up in the contact details. Try finding a birthday through the entire calendar! Second thing that got me down is that the contact phones have no area codes. This you might say “well, it’s ok”. Not if you modify something and then you get your contact updated in Outlook with no area codes. Again BIG problem. My second frustration was with the email accounts. It was hell to figure out how to configure and then I realized. If you have multiple email accounts … you should get another phone. 6680 is good. I assume any symbian enabled phone will do. Not this one. You cannot have all the emails grouped or in separate folders at least as it is on s60 phones. No. here you have to go to “Menu – Settings – Configuration – Personal Config Settings – select other email account and activate it”. Then you go back and go into the email folder. Good job Nokia! I think they could have found a worst sequence to do it. Also, get this, I assume (99% I know) that the emails get stored in the phone memory. You have no way of moving to memory card and no way of reading office or pdf files. Note that on symbian there are applications to do it. As for the battery, I don’t know yet. It did not last one day anyway but I gave it a good run and I know it will improve after several recharges. The good things I know about this phone is that the video has a good quality. I cannot say for pictures because I do have a professional digital SLR camera and I cannot compare without being mean. It is still a phone. The radio is average. Good enough I say. Small note to end this. The phone should have predictive text input. Should, because it is not in the menu. A problem that a firmware update should resolve. I don’t know to what version since I might have the last one. It is: v 03.60 10-02-06. I would buy another model. If you are like me, pay attention to all I had to say. Cheers!

    Good posts a lot of information I needed or to know, or more so wish I'd known prior to purchasing the 6280. Came across this post while trying to find resolutions to a number of the 'problems' with this model that you've listed, or for accuracy's sake functional and features missing from this phone or poorly develop, in comparison to other models.
    Fact: One 'bug' that hasn't been raised in these posts is the management of a contact thumbnail's through PC Suite does work. Adding a thumbanil on the PC doesn't appear on the phone, and adding a thumbnail on the phone doesn't appear on the PC.
    Oppinion: The lack of management/handling of Company name & Birthday were the killer for me!
    Fact: Also I've only had the phone about 2 days now and I've had it just stop and mysteriously restart on me about 4 times. Admittly I've been using it a lot but not doing anything out of the ordinary to expect that.
    Oppinion: On the plus side the screens resolution great, and the photos very good for a phone. Neat little cropping tool, but nothing to rotate. Although the camera doesn't have a protector the case can be replace fixing and scratches! The phone is generally pretty responsive, boots and shuts down very quickly too.
    Oppinion: I'm probably being over critical here but the video call's camera at half arms length barely shows your whole face, at full arms length it's 'closer' to what you'd see on a passport. Although at this distance viewing the person your calling is more difficult. The phone has a good digital zoom in-out feature during a video call. But given the small portion of you shown under normal circumstances I don't imagine this would get used often. Admittly it was entertaining to keep the phone where it was and zoom in on my eye, but it's entertainment value will wear off (or maybe i could call me iridologist).

  • Some basic things I need to know before install

    Hii I am new to ARCH and need to know some things
    1)Can I have rasier 4 with thie distro? I heard it's fast and want to use it.
    2)I have DHCP network, and I need to provide my DNS and host and not to get it from the modem, How do it right?
    3)I have nvidia and generic screen , how to set it up right?
    4) What more Should I know about ARCH? I have read most of the FAQ and WIKI and so on, but more info will be good
    Hope to get a lot of answers and info

    Welcome to Arch!
    1. I think you mean reiserfs4: Reiserfs is no problem with the stock Arch Linux Kernel and the archck-kernel available in the extra repository. If you intend to compile your own kernel make sure you enable reiserfs if your config. But I personaly think it would bring you less problems if you start by using ext3 – you wouldn't see a huge difference in speed.
    2. simply done by configuring your /etc/rc.conf file in the network section this way:
    eth0="dhcp"
    and your /etc/resolv.conf like this, substituting your nameservers' IPs and your domain name:
    nameserver 61.23.173.5
    nameserver 61.95.849.8
    search example.com
    More info here
    3. RTFM
    4. What do you want to know? I could talk for hours about Arch so feel free to ask…

  • NSS and LUN expanding - what you need to know before you migrate

    Thought I'd share, since this isn't in any documentation or TID that I
    can find.
    Before you move to OES2 Linux with NSS or multipathing code or EVMS, you
    may want to consider this limitation (IMO, a major limitation if you're
    running an Enterprise).
    If you SAN allows you to grow/expand a LUN (ie, LUN1 was 50 GB and now
    you grow it to 100 GB), you cannot use the new space until you reboot
    the server itself. If you're running NCS, then you need to reboot every
    node that can host the clustered resource before you can expand the NSS
    pool.
    The issue is a bug in the devmapper portion of SLES. ANYTHING that uses
    devmapper will prevent the further layers (ie, multipathing or EVMS)
    from seeing the additional space until you reboot the server.
    Obviously rebooting servers in the middle of the day to add more space
    affects Enterprise services to your users. As does making them wait
    until off-hours before they can write/save any data to the servers. Not
    to mention rebooting multiple nodes in your NCS cluster.
    Novell won't fix this until SLES 11. Even then (ie, if you implement
    OES2 now and can live with the limitation it won't be truly fixed in
    SLES 11 if you're using NSS/EVMS), as the limitation will still be in
    EVMS in SLES 11. Therefore, you'd have to migrate your data to LVM2 (I
    believe that's what Novell is switching to). Yet another major
    disruption for your users.
    So, if you're thinking about OES2 with NSS/EVMS or multipathing, you may
    want to consider the effect this will have to your userbase (ie, how
    many times do you want to migrate your data?)
    In our case, looks like it's goint to be one migration --- to MS
    Windows.

    Hi,
    General rule, if you think rebooting is NOT an option AND you are not using clustering - you're looking for trouble.
    I know I can increase space to my cluster with out kicking my users offline.
    Worked for NSS.
    Worked for OCFS.
    Limitation noted and ignored.

  • What are some things i need to know before buying Aperture 3? because i know a little about digital photography

    Help please

    Your Mac seems to be compatible with Aperture (http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1657), but is your camera? Here is a list of cameras, that are supported by Aperture, see: Apple - Aperture - Technical Specifications - RAW Support
    If your camera is not on the list, you can work in Aperture with jpegs, tiffs, psd images, but not with raw images.
    because i know a little about digital photography
    That is a bit ambigious - do you want to say that you have some experience with digital photography, or nearly none at all?  Have you tried iPhoto and do you like it? iPhoto comes on every newer mac included for free, so you could give it a try. Aperture and iPhoto are related, they are both supporting a lossless workflow - you can always undo all edits and your original images are preserved, and both are compatible. Each application can open the photl library of the other app.
    Only Aperture has advanced editing tools and more possibilites to organize and search your images.
    To elaborate on Kirby's question: To help you decide, it would help to know, if you have used any software for organizing a photo library previously, and and what you are looking for. If not, give iPhoto a trial run - it should be on your Mac. If you see, that you need more advanced features than the basic set in iPhoto, check, if Aperture will give you those and then buy Aperture. You can continue right where you left off in iPhoto.

  • New to InDesign: things I need to know before starting my 200-page book?

    Hi there (second time attempting to post this; sorry if both somehow end up on the discussion page—this version is my most recent)—
    I'd practically completed a 180-page cookbook—lots of photos and recipes, instructions and comments—in Apple Pages ('cause I'm on a Mac and Pages seemed pretty straightforward) when I realized that not being able to see the book in a facing-pages view was completely ridiculous.  So I'm trying InDesign, and already I can see that this is THE app for what I'm doing.  I purchased a hard copy of the InDesign Classroom in a Book 2014 book, which I'm slowly going through... but I'm so incredibly eager and going page by page is so slow.  I will keep going through the book, but in the meantime, would people on this forum mind making sure I'm starting off on the right foot?  (I don’t want to get too far along and then discover that I should have been doing things completely differently).
    Question One:  Many of my pages will be for recipes, of course—name of the dish at the top (white text on a black background), photo below, and below that the list of ingredients and the instructions.  So should I create a Master Page just for recipes?  That would seem to make sense, as all of the recipes will be organized on the page in the same way.  But what about all the other parts of the book (Preface, Table of Contents, various pages of commentary, pages of photos, etc.) that are different from one another?
    Should I create other Master Pages for other parts of the book?
    Question Two:  given that I’m planning to have all the pages printed at a printing house, and then bound into book form… should all my ‘left-hand’ Master Pages leave an extra wide margin on the right (to account for the part of the page that’s bound/glued) and, similarly, should all my right-hand Master Pages leave extra room on the left?  How much extra room do I need for this? 
    Question Three:  I really don't know enough about InDesign to even know what other question to ask, so maybe I'm safest to ask this:  are there settings I should 'build in' now, so I don't find myself trying to do it later, when it's much more difficult?  As I say, I'm going to keep struggling with the book (so many lessons seem to have nothing to do with my particular project, but I know I have to keep plugging away).  I do want to get my cookbook off on the right foot though.
    Thanks so much for any advice,
    Malcolm

    Presumable the book will be divided into sections (chapters) to make it more accessible. (1) front matter – title page, imprint/copyright, TOC etc. these tend not to have pages numbers (2) Individual chapters – e.g. Starters, Main courses, Puddings, Drinks  (3) back matter e.g Index.
    The simplest approach is to have page numbers on your master page with running headers – that is the name of the book at the top of the left hand page and the name of each chapter on the right hand page, and guides for the repeating elements.
    Produce and print out a couple of specimen pages of the recipe pages to see how your design looks and how easy it is read/use and how you will allow in the design for short and long menu headings and recipes etc. Use paragraph, character and object styles in your design. You wouldn't need extra space for perfect binding, look at similar books of the same trimmed pages size to see what kind of margins they have.
    The cover artwork should be produced as a separate document as it will be printed separately on heavier stock.
    Check you have an economical page size for printing (talk to your printer) discuss the paper you might choose and how many pages in a printed section. Also what kind of PDF s/he wants.

  • Things I would like to know before updating to KitKat

    Hi everyone,
    Am new to Sony and am delaying doing the update via PCC or SUS until the bugs I have read about are sorted.  Meanwhile i have a couple of questions which I cannot find answers to. 
    How do I get rid of the notification I have on my phone telling me 14.3.A.0.681 is waiting? selecting 'clear' does not work. 
    I read about the upcoming fixes due shortly but does that mean I will need to go ahead and install the 'buggy' 14.3.A.0.681 beforehand OR will a complete new KitKat be available to replace Jellybean? 
    Have noted alexdon's advice of things to be aware of before updating but should the phone be on or off? 
    Presumably MTP needs to be activated and USB debugging on?
    Generally is it wise to do a factory reset after FW update?
    Sorry to ask so many questions but updating Samsung Galaxy via Kies was never straightforward so want to be prepared this time and hopefully any responses will help others too.  Thank you
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    You cannot get rid of the notification until you update,if you clear data for update centre it will come back.
    It seems that you can wait for the next update without installing this one,but I am not sure if it will work fine when you update.
    The phone must be turned on for PC companion(I updated to kitkat about 4 days ago and it needed the phone on).Sony update service needs the phone turned off because it first checks for the firmware version.
    You need to have MTP enabled.
    About the factory reset,it is not necessarily.I have not done factory resets and I do not encounter big problems with the KK(only the loudpeaker-earspeaker thing).Even before,on my Xperia P,I have not reseted to factory settings after each update.
    All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us - J.R.R. Tolkien

This PIN is only applicable to the Foxtel Go app. For Foxtel from Telstra customers, the PIN is not the same as you use on your IQ or Set Top Box, and you will be required to setup a new PIN to restrict content on Foxtel Go. For Foxtel on T-Box customers, the PIN is not the same as you use on your T-Box, and you will be required to setup a new PIN to restrict content on Foxtel Go.
    Foxtel Go content is unmetered with Telstra BigPond Home Broadband services. With other internet service providers this will be offset against your data plan.
    If you use Foxtel Go on your device with any 3G/4G telecommunications service provider, including Telstra, usage isn't unmetered and you will incur data charges when using Foxtel Go. The below list provides an indicationof the data you will use per device on the various app settings, based on watching an hour of TV. To view your settings go to the 'settings' icon in the Foxtel Go App, turn on 'video settings' and choose your preferred quality:
    3G Phone/Tablet Best: 320 MB per hour / Low: 170 MB per hour
    Wi-Fi Phone Best: 420 MB per hour / Low: 320 MB per hour
    Wi-Fi Tablet Best: 720 MB per hour / Low: 320 MB per hour
    Wi-Fi PC/Mac Best: 1310 MB per hour / Low: 470 MB per hour
    The size of each episode or Movie on Catch up TV can be found on the Synopsis tab.
    You can use Foxtel Go at a Wi-Fi location or a personal hotspot when you are in Australia provided you have an internet connection. Some locations offer Wi-Fi hotspots where you can log onto the internet for free. e.g. McDonalds, Starbucks, etc. Any data charges incurred are charged to the business and not to you. When connected to Wi-Fi, you'll see a Wi-Fi symbol on your device.
    Foxtel from Telstra customers with a Foxtel iQ or iQHD set top box can Remote Record and send a channel change to their set top box. Unfortunately this functionality is not available to Foxtel on T-Box customers.
    You can pause and rewind the last 30 minutes of Live TV, even if you've just changed to that channel. Due to device restrictions users of Samsung Android devices are unable to use this feature.
    Foxtel Go is a streaming video service. Streaming means that images and sound are delivered live to your device to view when you press Play, rather than being downloaded to your device to view at a later time.
    Games you'd normally see on Foxtel from Telstra or Foxtel on T-Box on FOX SPORTS 3 are broadcast on Foxtel Go on the Footy Play Plus channel
    There are no Catch Up of AFL games or magazine shows on Foxtel Go due to content restrictions.
    The key symbol indicates that a channel isn't part of your package. You need to upgrade your Foxtel from Telstra or Foxtel on T-Box package to watch it. Your package can not be updated through the Foxtel Go app. For Foxtel on T-Box customers you can update your packages in the T-Box App, at www.telstra.com/tboxsetup, via 13 2200 or in store. For Foxtel from Telstra customers you can update your packages through the store or via 13 1999. The lock symbol indicates that, as part of your parental control setting, you've locked this classification of content, and can't watch it. If you want to change the settings then the primary (i.e. the first username created and linked to your account) account holder can change these by:
    Go to the settings' icon in the app (top right)
    Access parental controls'
    Choose which classifications you'd like to restrict
    No other username or password can change the parental control settings.
    We may be required to block out specific programming from time to time, e.g. if a channel doesn't have the legal right to broadcast the programme over the internet. However, all live channels are the same as channels you watch through Foxtel from Telstra or Foxtel on T-Box.
    The vast majority of the Foxtel on T-Box content is available via Foxtel Go. There are some minor exceptions. MTV Music and MTV Dance channels are not available. FOOTY PLAY and FOOTY PLAY+ (overflow) channels are not available on PC and Mac only.
    Access to Foxtel Go is included in your Foxtel on T-Box and Foxtel from Telstra subscription. However, you will incur data charges when accessing the service on a 3G/4G network.

  • I have a late 2009 iMac. I installed OSX 10.8.4 and want to go back to Snow Leopard. I have a 1.5TB external HD. Are there any issues I need to know about or tips I need to know before doing this? Thanks.

    I have a late 2009 iMac. I installed OSX 10.8.4 and want to go back to Snow Leopard. I have a 3TB external HD. Are there any issues I need to know about or tips I need to know before doing this? Thanks.

    Downgrade Lion/Mountain Lion to Snow Leopard
      1. Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer Disc. After the installer
          loads select your language and click on the Continue
          button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the
          Utilities menu.
      2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the
          mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status
          of the drive in DU's status area.  If it does not say "Verified" then
          the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing.  SMART
          info will not be reported  on external drives. Otherwise, click on
          the Partition tab in the DU main window.
      3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions
          from the drop down menu to one. Set the format type to Mac OS
          Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the
          partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Click on
          the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
      4. Quit DU and return to the installer. Install Snow Leopard.
    This will erase the whole drive so be sure to backup your files if you don't have a backup already. If you have performed a TM backup using Lion be aware that you cannot restore from that backup in Snow Leopard (see below.) I suggest you make a separate backup using Carbon Copy Cloner.
    If you have Snow Leopard Time Machine backups made while on Snow Leopard, then you may do a full system restore per #14 in Time Machine - Frequently Asked Questions.  If you have subsequent backups from Lion, you can restore newer items selectively, via the "Star Wars" display, per #15 there, but be careful; some Snow Leopard apps may not work with the Lion/Mountain Lion files.

  • What are the main COPA principles in manufacturing you need to know?

    Hello
    What are the main COPA principles in manufacturing you need to know?
    thanks

    Mr Comandante,
    Which exactly is the information that you are looking for ?
    It does not matter which strategy of manufacturing you are using. At the end of the period, the differences between the comparison of the planning costs with the actual costs can be taken to COPA, to be reflected as Inefficiency or differences in Production.
    If you are using discrete (Make to order) or Process Manufacturing, you need to configure in the profile of the settlement of the order a profile for COPA.
    If you are using repetitive manufacturing in the collector of cost.
    Please feel free to ask for any further information that you want, mi estimado amigo
    Gustavo

  • Few thing you need to do on the rotue & X-BOX ... Cha...

    Few thing you need to do on the rotue & X-BOX ... Change the MTU size under setup page of the rotuer ..from 1500 to 1365 ... click save settings ... Uncheck block WAN request under security tab ... click save settings... Under Port forwarding use port numbers ... 88 & 3074 ..for static Ip of X-BOX ... On X-BOX you need to use static Ip ...subnet ..default gateway ... also you need to use DNS numbers ... Hope it helps ...

    FYI-
    If you delete the managed account and save the home folder, then create a new local account with the same name, it does not recognize that the home folder already existed so you end up with a brand new profile...(bummer) The only option is to move the users data to the new home directory. If you simply unbind the machine from the domain, the account still works but I am not sure of long term implications, so far, all I've noticed is that the user cannot change their password....
