UPS Auto-Shutdown not the same as a 'Cold' Shutdown?
Hello folks,
I've an APC UPS system that interfaces great with my iMac. In case of power outages, I configure it to shutdown the computer automatically when it has been on UPS power for a certain amount of time.
I've never had a serious power outage before, but it happened the other day. The UPS automatically shutdown the iMac after the specified amount of time. Now I was wondering if this kind of shutdown is similar to a 'cold' shutdown and therefore harmful to my iMac? If so, what's to be done when I startup and login the next time?
Thanks.
Stephen.
I would be careful with the assumptions. Three seconds is an awfully fast shutdown time. If the power down had not been graceful, is is possible that the OP would only have had a few seconds added to the boot time. It sounded from the post like it did not gracefully shut down.
How do you know it works if you don't try it? Why not configure the UPS to shut down after 5 minutes, put the Mac to sleep, and pull the plug on the UPS. If it is indeed configured and working correctly you have nothing to worry about.
I have been through hundreds of UPSs in my career. They fail often. I test all of mine once a month when I vacuum out my machines.

Log-on client 200 is not the same as BI clients "600"
Hi Experts,
My data load got failed and when i checked the error message, it says " Log-on client 200 is not the same as BI clients "600"".
Diagnosis
You are using client-dependent BI functions in client 200. However, the standard BI client is 600.
System Response
The function is terminated.
Procedure
Maintain a destination in the BI standard client. For information, see SAP Note 522569.
I went through the sap note and checked the maintenance of rfc desination. But not able to uderstand this issue. Do anyone have good idea about this issue.
Thanks in advance.
AnandHi,
In BW, you must work on only client. As the error said, you log on to client 200, but using 600 client as the connected one. Please check the source system conncection whether it is given for the default client in RSADMINA table BWMANDT field or not. if not change that. -
Line item Ship-to Info is not the same in Header Ship-to Party During Sales Order Creation via IDOC
We have observed that during creation of sales order using idoc, the line item ship-to party is not the same with header ship-to. The ship-to party info in line item is equivalent to the header's sold to party. To give you a quick background, Sold to party info is given in idoc and ship to party is being determined using table EDPAR. In this specific scenario, sold to customer is not the same with ship to customer.
Initial checking on the code leads us in function module VIEW_KUAGV. This FM populates partner details of sales order header and line item in program LVEDAF1Z
Below is the code for Sales order Header. Notice that WE_INPUT parameter which contains Ship to party is passed as exporting parameter in FM VIEW_KUAGV. This is the reason why Ship to Party is populated correctly in sales order header but not in sales order item.
Initially, it first set to Sold-To Party. However, if WE_INPUT is given or provided, partner details is set to Ship-To Party.
Please advise on how we can make the ship to party info in header and line item be consistent. This is SAP Standard program which why we are hesitant to make change on the program. If there is a configuration to make this happen, kindly advise.
Regards,
RommelHi Jayesh,
If I understand you correctly, you want that when creating SO from Quoatation
the Ship to Party also follow/copy Ship to Party from Quotation, right?
Just to confirm with you, when you creating SO reference from Quotation, you
use copy/follow-up function, am I right?
You can do this by setting in configuration of Copy Control (like mentioned by Hui).
Step as follow :
1. Go to IMG->CRM->Transactions->Basic Settings->Copying Control for
Business Transactions
2. Create your BAdi (Business Add-In for Copying Control), such as get Ship to
Party value from source document and use it in current document
3. Use this Rule you have created in BAdi (no. 2), in copy control transaction type
IMG->CRM->Transactions->Basic Settings->Copying Control for
Business Transactions-> Define Copying Control for Transaction Types
4. Here you set Copying Routine for your transaction types (put name of your Badi
created in step no. 2)
Or alternatively, you can set it on access sequence in Partner Function
Ship to Party in configuration. You can define access sequence the Ship
to Party is taken from Preceeding Document -> Ship To Party
1. Go to Partner Function access sequence :
IMG->CRM->Basic Functions->Partner Processing->Define Access Sequence
2. Create new access sequence with following entry :
- Source COM_PARTNER_A (PrecedingPartner)
- Check Mapping for Partner Being search
- Partner Function in Source = Ship To Party
3. Assign this Access Sequence in you Partner Function used in Sales Order Transaction
Type.

In my iTunes on computer, I have several smart play lists. Within each playlist, songs are set to a certain order. Some playlist songs order are organized by name, some playlists are organized by Album, some playlists are organized by artist etc.
When I was syncing my iPhone and iPad directly with my computer, the playlists on my mobile device had same order of songs as on my itunes in computer.
Now, I signed up for iTunes match. With iCloud sync, order of the songs in my playlist of mobile devices is not the same as on my computer. In fact, order of songs within a playlist appears to be completely random. Moreover, order of songs are different in my iPhone 4s and iPad 2
How can I change the order of songs on my mobile devices or how do I make iTunes match to sync my songs such that within a playlist, my songs are in the same order as that of iTunes on my computer.Thanks mracole. I assume this means order of songs will work with regular play lists I iTunes match. Will try it this afternoon and report.
Please let me know if my understanding is not correct.
Best regards and thanks once again. -
I'm trying to reinstall Mavericks on used Macbook Pro. When I log in to my Apple ID, it says it was not the same ID used to purchase Mountain Lion. I need to change user/admin as a lot of the folders and apps are in Chinese!
The first thing you should do with a second-hand computer is to erase the internal drive and install a clean copy of OS X. How you do that depends on the model. Look it up on this page to see what version was originally installed.
If the machine shipped with OS X 10.4 or 10.5, you need a boxed and shrink-wrapped retail Snow Leopard (OS X 10.6) installation disc, which you can get from the Apple Store or a reputable reseller — not from eBay or anything of the kind. If the machine has less than 1 GB of memory, you'll need to add more in order to install 10.6. I suggest you install as much memory as it can take, according to the technical specifications.
If the machine shipped with OS X 10.6, you need the installation media that came with it: gray installation discs, or a USB flash drive for some MacBook Air models. If you don't have the media, order replacements from Apple. A retail disc, or the gray discs from another model, will not work.
To boot from an optical disc or a flash drive, insert it, then reboot and hold down the C key at the startup chime. Release the key when you see the gray Apple logo on the screen.
If the machine shipped with OS X 10.7 or later, you don't need media. It should boot into Internet Recovery mode when you hold down the key combination option-command-R at the startup chime. Release the keys when you see a spinning globe.
Once booted from the disc or in Internet Recovery, launch Disk Utility and select the icon of the internal drive — not any of the volume icons nested beneath it. In the Partition tab, select the default options: a GUID partition table with one data volume in Mac OS Extended (Journaled) format. This operation will permanently remove all existing data on the drive, which is what you should do.
After partitioning, quit Disk Utility and run the OS X Installer. When the installation is done, the system will automatically reboot into the Setup Assistant, which will prompt you to transfer the data from another Mac, its backups, or from a Windows computer. If you have any data to transfer, this is usually the best time to do it.
You should then run Software Update and install all available system updates from Apple. If you want to upgrade to a major version of OS X newer than 10.6, buy it from the Mac App Store. Note that you can't keep an upgraded version that was installed by the previous owner. He or she can't legally transfer it to you, and without the Apple ID you won't be able to update it in Software Update or reinstall, if that becomes necessary. The same goes for any App Store products that the previous owner installed — you have to repurchase them.
If the previous owner "accepted" the bundled iLife applications (iPhoto, iMovie, and Garage Band) in the App Store so that he or she could update them, then they're linked to that Apple ID and you won't be able to download them without buying them. Reportedly, Apple customer service has sometimes issued redemption codes for these apps to second owners who asked.
If the previous owner didn't deauthorize the computer in the iTunes Store under his Apple ID, you wont be able toauthorize it under your ID. In that case, contact iTunes Support. -

My iPhone serial number and IMEI is not the same as Apple server
Hello,
My problem started when I want to unlock my iphone 3gs via Imei.
My old iphone broke about a month after i bought it (it was 2 years ago), so i sent it to Movistar to change it (i think that they sent it to appleCare). Now Movistar told me that i have to send the old iphone imei in order to unlock the iphone i have now, i ask apple for the repair order receipt, then i received an email and i could see the information about the 2 iphones: the old broken one and the new one.
Then I realized that the iphone they sent me as a replacement (the new one) is not the same iphone i have. The serial number and the Imei are different, so, should apple change this data in their server in order to unlock my iphone or what can i do to solve it?
There is any formal way to perform this data change?
Thank you in advance,
Francisco MarzabalHere we work with repairs for devices that does not have waranty (expired or other issue). In this case, I did the screen replacement. No other ipad was on my station, the ipad arrives, i took it change the glass, put everithing back, give to customer. Thats it. The job was done by me, the customer test his ipad in front on me, works fine, everything ok. Few days pass and he came back saying that it wasn't his ipad, he brings the box that the ipad came and ask me why the serial number does not match the serial number in the box (sorry NOT in the back of the ipad).
There were no other part changed only glass. After 7 years working on this, thats the first customer complaining about a work done here. After this I was curious and look for more information and some forums, also one port here is claiming that the serial number on the device is not the same as the box where it came.
I just want to make sure that there are possibilities that there could be such mistake during the packaging process.
Thanks for the replies -

I was using FF 4 Beta and applied the update ... I noticed that my final version was not the same as shown on the website so I removed the beta setup file and took off all versions of FF cleaned adn restarted my laptop and then reinstalled a clean version of FF 4.. however my final* version is not the same as shown still. Is this right or do I need to do something else :(
Examples of what is different is the home icon remains on the left hand side of the screen next to the back button and I do not have the bookmarks icons which from the website should appear on the right hand side next to the new location of the home button.Look you can customize it very easily.
Press Alt+V to have the View Menu -> Select Toolbars -> Click on Customize -> Now drag the Home Button to anywhere on the toolbar and pick the Bookmarks Button from the available icons and put it in the toolbar. -
Apple ID is not the same as iCloud ID and I need to activate my phone.
So my phone pooed itself and I had to reset it. That did not help and so I had to erase all of my settings. Upon getting to the activation page, it says that my apple ID is not the same as my iCloud ID....although that is the only ID that I have ever used for my phone.
Is there any way that I can remove my phone off of the iCloud and then proceed through activation a different way?
Thank you very much for the help!No. In order to reactivate your device have to provide the ID and password that were used to activate it originally. If you are not the original owner, you will have to contact the original owner to either get the ID and password, or have him/her erase the device and remove it from their account as explained here: Find My iPhone Activation Lock: Removing a device from a previous owner’s account. If you cannot contact the original owner you will not be able to activate and use your device. No one else can help you with this and there is no way around it.

Seems my iCloud password is not the same as my iTunes. Where do I go to reset my iCloud password? I cannot access anything when prompted to put in my iCloud password because I do NOT know it. Thanks! I've used my iTunes password for everything else Apple does and would like to use the same one for my iCloud.
Do the following:
Make sure you are signed into iMessage and FaceTime with your current ID. If they are signed into the old ID, go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive and Settings>FaceTime, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with your current ID.
Then temporarily recreate the old ID by going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID. Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change. (You should not have to verify the old email account so it doesn’t matter if you no longer have access to it.) Now go to Settings>iCloud, turn off Find My iDevice and enter your current password when prompted (even though it prompts you for the password for your old ID). Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Sign Out (or Delete Account if you are not running iOS 8) and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud). Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address back to the way it was. Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign back in with your current iCloud ID and password (your data will download back to your device). -
Hi,
When trying with Postman sending a REST call to Azure Storage Queues I get:
The MAC signature found in the HTTP request '***' is not the same as any computed signature. Server used following string to sign: 'POST.
The code I have for creating the Authorization Header:
var accountName = "my_account";
string key = ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["my_access_key"];
DateTime dt = DateTime.Now;
string formattedDate = String.Format("{0:r}", dt);
var canonicalizedHeaders = "x-ms-date:" + formattedDate + "\n" + "x-ms-version:2009-09-19" + "\n" ;
var canonicalizedResource = "/my_account/myqueue/messages";
var stringToSign = String.Format("POST,\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n{0}{1}", canonicalizedHeaders, canonicalizedResource);
stringToSign = HttpUtility.UrlEncode(stringToSign);
HMACSHA256 hmac = new HMACSHA256(Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(key));
var signature = Convert.ToBase64String(hmac.ComputeHash(Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(stringToSign)));
var authorizationHeader = String.Format(CultureInfo.InvariantCulture, "SharedKey {0}:{1}", accountName, signature);
return authorizationHeader;
Anyone any idea what I'm missing/doing wrong?
Additional question: do i have to create for every message I want to send a new Authorization header? Or is there an option (as with Service Bus Topics) to create a header that can be used for a certain timeframe?
Thanks.One issue is with this line of code:
HMACSHA256 hmac = new HMACSHA256(Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(key));
Please use the following:
HMACSHA256 hmac = new HMACSHA256(Convert.FromBase64String(key));
and that should take care of the problem.
Regarding your question, "do i have to create for every message I want to send a new Authorization header? Or is there an option (as with Service Bus Topics) to create a header that can be used for a certain timeframe?"
With your current approach, the answer is yes. What you can do is create a Shared Access Signature on the queue which will be valid for certain duration and then use that for posting messages to a queue using simple HttpWebRequest/HttpWebResponse.
Hope this helps. -
Although I can access iCloud, my system preferences on my iMac still show Mobile.me. I have to sign in with my mobile.me ID which is not the same as my Apple ID. I want to change my iCloud ID and password to be consistent with my Apple ID and password. How do I do it?
you need to be running OSX 10.7 or 10.8 to use iCloud i believe. It shows you are using 10.6.8 which doesn't support iCloud.

How can you make Firefox's settings the same on mulitple computers (not the same as sync)?
I would like Firefox (version 4) to look and have the same settings on more than one desktop.
This is not the same as 'sync' which just synchronizes your bookmarks, history, and passwords.
I want the look and placement of all the toolbars, etc to be the same on all the computers in my house.
Thank you!
