View count AND thread update bug?

It's the end of the year, so that might be the reason of this oddity, but here is my problem:
I just posted a comment to this thread and returned to my profile page to just realize that somebody had already posted a comment. I went back to the thread and did not find anyhting new, so I went back to my profile...just to discover that a new post had just been added to the thread (and the view count had been incremented).
Long story made short, at each iteration of this procedure, the view count goes up by 1 and the thread keep appearing as updated, when it is not. I tried that on Chrome and IE8, same thing.
The interesting thing is that this does not happen for another thread (I just posted in this one too and repeated the above sequence and did not see the thread update bug happen, however, the view count increases each time I go back to the thread).
To me the thread activity being stuck IS a bug. The view count being incremented each time the original poster displays the thread is debatable. I guess strictly speaking it is the correct behavior and what would be an intersting additional information would be the number of VIEWERS...

Hmm, I think I understood what is happening: for some reason, I must have failed to read ALL the posts in those threads (very likely in the case of the first one I mentioned, as it is 10 pages long, but I was under the impression I had followed the second one quite closely). I can only see that if I click on the "View All" link at the bottom of the panel showing my recent posts:
Then the list that shows up indicates the number of NEW posts. This is a misnomer in the sense that generally those posts can be be anterior to the one you posted, so there are not "new" rather just "unread". I may be mistaken, but in the case of the second thread I mentioned, I think that what I may have not checked out AGAIN is the response that was labeled as "answer" by the original poster (but I thought I did though). It is only when I went through all pages (without reading anything, of course) that the thread lost its "highlighted" status.
Anyhow, here it the suggestions I would have:
- introduce a new "unread" post column (in addition to the "new" one).
- offer an option to "mark thread/topic as read" (so that you don't have to go through 20+ pages of a thread to deactivate it)
Sorry for the misunderstanding.

  • View count lost after maintenance

    I noticed that after the maintenance of yesterday, the view counts of threads are often way off.
    Before the maintenance I had several articles that were viewed 40K+ and 24K+ times that now show only something like 311 and 257 times. The funny thing is that the number of replies seem OK.
    Where have all those views gone and more importantly, when will they be corrected? Especially newbies on these fora start by reading the most popular discussions and number of views is a good indicator, so this is something that needs attention.

    Harm,
    I had not noticed that, but did see some oddities with Replies, such as the main forum page showing that ____ had Replied ____ mins. ago, but that Reply did not show immediately, when one viewed the thread. I'd go back to the main page (not via the Back function), see the same last Reply, but the thread would be (Updated), and on second viewing the Reply would appear - just a lag of a few minutes between the notice on the main page, and the display on the thread's page.
    I also saw some rather strange time/date info for Replies, and at one point, my Profile reset to Date Joined: 2010, from the already incorrect 2002.
    Seems that much of that has sorted itself out.
    Jacob had posted of a thread in the AI forum, that had 300,000+ Views, and was growing exponentially. I need to see how it is progressing, after the maintenance. I fear that it might reach critical mass at some point, and who knows what will happen then?
    There are other oddities in a few posts, where the Date/Time of the OP is present day, but all the Replies, including Correct & Helpful show 2 - 3 years ago?

  • My iTunes doesn't keep track of my listening history anymore. It doesn't update play counts and default "Recently Played" playlist.

    My iTunes doesn't keep track of my listening history anymore. It doesn't update play counts and default "Recently Played" playlist. But it still tracking plays from my iPhone and syncing them.
    I've tried to repair it with setup file. Nothing's changed.
    Can you help me with that?
    NOTE: Now I tried disabling the crossfade feature and it worked, started to count again. But I like crossfade, I don't want to keep it off.

    I think I got this figured out. The playcount does update, but not how the previous iPod models update their playcount. Instead of immediately updating the playcount right after you finish the song like the older iPod models, iPod Touch keeps the updates in memory. The next time you connect to iTunes it'll sync those playcounts in memory to the actual songs itself, effectively updating the playcount of the songs only after connecting to iTunes. I have set my syncing manually. That's why after connecting to iTunes, my playcounts are updated. BUT it doesn't solve the mystery of my Smart Playlist. Even though in iTunes, the correct songs are listed, in the iPod Touch, it shows the old playlist.
    Don't you just hate that? It was working fine before on non-iPod touch models. Now we have to live with this new bug. I just hope when they release software 2.0 it fixes these bugs and that they *give it for free!* People shouldn't be charged on something they should have gotten as a support!

  • ITunes 10.4 and Windows 7 bug thread

    I thought I would start an entire thread devoted to iTunes 10.4 and Windows 7 bugs since there are MANY people reporting various issues and may not know about all of them. Hopefully this will combine a list of all bugs for reference and help others. So far, most of this effects Windows 7 64 bit, but some are reporting issues under 32 bit too.
    I have spoken with both Apple Care and a higher level tech at iTunes support. The iTunes support tech said they were "looking into all reported bugs and are aware of issues with version 10.4, especially under Windows 7. They encourage others to report their bugs to iTunes support so they can work on this and find all the issues.
    KNOWN BUGS:
    Album Art copy/paste broken - A bug that causes copy/pase from clipboard where album art is not displayed in the info tab as before. Some have reported success by dragging the image file over to it vs copy/paste method but it is still very much spotty and a known bug.
    iTunes store not working - Some have been effected with the iTunes store not working properly for them. Personally I don't have a problem but this has been for some.
    "Purchases" link not working in iTunes - When you click on "Purchases" link on the right column, all your purchases are missing and do not show up. This includes, music, movies, apps, etc. This is also a known bug and one that I have personally. Works fine in iTunes 10.3 for Windows 7 64bit and also works fine under both Snow Leopard and Lion OS.
    Sync issues - Some have reported syncing issues since upgrading to 10.4 iTunes on Windows 7. This is a bit spotty as well as I have no trouble but there are others that have reported issues.
    Solutions:
    For now, the only way to fix this is to use iTunes 10.4 under Snow Leopard or Lion OS. Also, you can uninstall (not repair) 10.4 and install 10.3 again which should work.

    You are correct and I wish that I had known this before spending 4 days and a lot of trouble going over this with both Apple Care and iTunes support. They had me jumping through hoops and didn't know anything until it was finally escalated. Only then did I get a vague response like I mentioned in the first post. It's troubling to me how a simple response from anyone there could've just said we know about this and they are bugs in 10.4 causing this.
    There are other issues too as you point out with the syncing and crashing. Anyway, hopefully others will find information here more useful than calling Apple for help. Not much we can do now except roll back to 10.3 for those that kept it and hope also they can updated Apple Application Support component.

  • Folio update bug in the branded viewer v23

    Hi,
    We have a 6-page flatten folio (each page is a separate article) that we updated. If folio was previously downloaded in the viewer and then updated (without archiving of the old one), page 5 (5th article) remains old page (same thing happened on two iPads). After archiving "corrupted" folio and re-downloading (or if it's downloaded for the first time) everything is OK. Also download size was different - 1MB for good new folio and 4MB for the "corrupted" one. Looks like some bug with server pushing old article. I wonder if anyone else have experienced this bug.
    Thank you!

    I experience this problem frequently (but not always) when updating content: it's as if the interactive overlays get confused about which page they're supposed to be on when you add or change something. That said, the problem is nowhere near as bad as it used to be.
    As you have found, Archiving the folio and downloading the whole folio anew is the only fix.

  • Game center bugs, lockups and not updating friend details

    With the new ios7 game center I have found a couple of issues.
    Firstly, it does not seem to update the name of my friends when they chnage theirs. It keeps showing their old name. Why is it not updating the credentials?
    Even more seriously, there are 2 ways of getting the application stuck, at least on the ipad. The iphone seems not to suffer from the automatic jumping described below.
    At the bottom, select the "Friends" tab. Select the "Points" view, which includes yourself (Me) in the list of friends,
    Select yourself (Me) in that list, and you'll notice the app will jump back to the first tab "Me".
    Try to move back to the Friends tab, it will immedeately jump back to the "Me" tab. You'll have to kill the app to see your friends again.
    Similar method, but worse: At the bottom, select the "Friends" tab. Select the "Points" view, which includes yourself (Me) in the list of friends,
    Don't select anyone yet but move to the "Games" tab and then back to the "Friends" tab. This will autoselect the player "Me" and you'll notice the tab also jumps to "Me" but the "Friends" tab view stays, and actually the whole app is now stuck.

  • Finder not able to view folders and files on EHD after updating to OS X 10.9.4

    I can see still see 'Hitachi' in the 'Devices' Sidebar, but I am not able to view folders and files on this Hitachi XL2000 2TB FAT32 Hard Drive (EHD) that is USB connected to the iMac below.
    Late 2013 Apple iMac (27-inch Display 2560 x 1440), 3.4GHz Quad-core Intel Core i5, Turbo Boost up to 3.8GHz, 8GB 1600MHz DDR3 SDRAM - 2X4GB, 512GB Flash Storage, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 775M 2GB GDDR5, Magic Trackpad, Apple Wireless Keyboard and OS X 10.9.4 Mavericks
    All was fine until I updated from OS X 10.9.3 to 10.9.4 earlier this week, so now when I double-click on 'Hitachi' it just loads and loads with nothing happening and never displays the folder and file contents of the EHD.
    Also, confirmed that Hitachi EHD has been removed from Spotlight indexing per System Preferences > Privacy > + > Hitachi and it was so this does not seem to be an indexing issue.
    I have used OnyX and Apple Disk Utilities unsuccessfully to try and fix this problem.
    Interestingly, Backblaze online backup still sees the EHD and connecting this EHD to a Win 8.1 PC also sees the EHD.
    Further, I ran the commands below in 'Terminal' to make sure the drive was visible and got the following results which shows that the EHD is not hidden.
    iMac:Applications john$ chflags nohidden /Volumes/Hitachi/
    iMac:Applications john$ GetFileInfo /Volumes/Hitachi/
    directory: "/Volumes/HITACHI"
    attributes: avbstclinmedz
    modified: 07/10/2014 23:26:44
    Finally, I installed XtraFinder and am still not able to see the contents of the EHD, but when I installed OmniDiskSweeper I can navigate the EHD folder tree with no problems and can see the contents of the EHD, but when I try and open up a file it opens Finder which loads and loads and nothing happens.

    Apple Support was quite helpful, but in the end I will wait to do a clean install of OS X Yosemite which is due in the Fall and not try and fix OS X 10.9.4 Mavericks.
    It turns out that I run backups on my '/Users/john/Library' and the size of this folder before the 10.9.4 update was 1.07 GB and after the update it is 806.9 MB which is baffling, but in the end all of these problems should be resolved with a clean install of OS X Yosemite.
    One lesson learned for the future is that I will wait on installing an update until it has been in the wild for awhile as a quick OS X Mavericks Finder Problem search and similar searches show there could be an issue.

  • SCCM query to count missing and installed updates

    Hi guys, I'm looking for a couple of queries. Hopefully someone can help me out.
    The first, which is probably simpler; a query which will give me the count of missing updates and the count of installed updates for every machine that has 1 ore more update missing. I am not interested in the number of updates installed on a machine that
    doesn't have any updates missing. Would also be good to know when the machine last reported in.
    So something like this:
    The second, I assume more complicated one; a query that will give me the count of missing updates but broken down into their classification (ie. critical, service packs, updates...) and a count of the installed updates.
    So something like this:
    Is this possible?

    OK, so discovered the below:
    26 = critical
    27 = Definition Updates
    28 = Drivers
    29 = Feature Packs
    30 = Security Updates
    31 = Service Packs
    32 = Tools
    33 = Update Rollups
    34 = Updates
    Also, the below query returns a list of total updates required for each machine.
    select
          CS.Name0 [Server Name],
    case
    when
    (sum(case
    when UCS.status=2
    then 1 else 0
    end))>0 then
    ('Needs '+(cast(sum(case
    when UCS.status=2
    then 1 else 0
    end)as
    varchar(10))+
    ' Patches'))
    else
    'Good Client'
    end
    as 'Status',
          ws.lasthwscan
    as 'Last HW scan',
          FCM.collectionID--,
    from
          v_UpdateComplianceStatus UCS
    left
    outer join dbo.v_GS_COMPUTER_SYSTEM  CS
    on CS.ResourceID
    = UCS.ResourceID
    join v_CICategories_All catall2
    on catall2.CI_ID=UCS.CI_ID
    join v_CategoryInfo catinfo2
    on catall2.CategoryInstance_UniqueID
    = catinfo2.CategoryInstance_UniqueID
    and catinfo2.CategoryTypeName='UpdateClassification'
    left
    join v_gs_workstation_status ws
    on ws.resourceid=CS.resourceid
    left
    join v_fullcollectionmembership FCM
    on FCM.resourceid=CS.resourceid
    WHERE
         UCS.Status
    = '2'
    and FCM.collectionid
    = 'SMS00001'
    Group
    by
          CS.Name0,
          ws.lasthwscan,
          FCM.collectionID
    Order
    by
          CS.Name0,
          ws.lasthwscan,
          FCM.collectionID
    If I add the following, I get the total 'critical' updates required by each machine:
    WHERE
    catinfo2.CategoryInstanceID
    = 26 AND
         UCS.Status
    = '2'
    and FCM.collectionid
    = 'SMS00001'
    Changing the value '26' to one of the others listed above returns that classification.
    Anyone know how I can incorporate "WHERE catinfo2.CategoryInstanceID = xx"
    to list each update classification?

  • ITunes Play Count and Last Played not updating?

    Hi All,
    I have an IPOD shuffle 1GB 2nd gen, I'm using the latest ITunes 7.7.1.11, I have Windows XP SP3 intalled. On Aug 14th for some reason that was the last time ITunes Play Count and Last Played columns updated in ITunes. I listen to and recharge my shuffle everyday. When I hook my IPOD to the base it is recognized and ITunes opens and says it's syncing, then after about 30 seconds it says sync is complete, ok to disconnect, the flashing orange light goes green & everything seems correct except those 2 columns don't get updated, does anyone know how to make ITunes start updating that information again?
    Thanks for any advice,
    Steve

    Hi Paul,
    Just downloaded and installed iTunes 8.0. I played a few songs on my shuffle and synced it again, the problem remains the same, the last played & play count do not change. I wonder what happened on Aug 14th because thats the last time it worked.
    Thank you again,
    Steve

  • Play counts and "Last Played" not updating on short songs?

    It looks like a lot of people have had trouble with play counts not updating with crossfade turned on. I've never used crossfade, so this doesn't bother me. However, I do have a plethora of very short tracks in my library (owing to there being many video game soundtracks with short fanfares as tracks), and I've noticed that when playing any song that's 10 seconds or less, it will show up in the "History" tab of "Up Next", but "Plays" and "Last Played" remain the same. Any other song in my library, whether it's 11 seconds long like "Got a Star Piece (part 1)" from "Super Mario RPG" by Yoko Shimomura or 11 minutes long like "I Am" from "As the World Bleeds" by Theocracy, will update its play count properly when played. Why is 10 seconds enough time to play a song and add it to my history, but not enough time to update when I last played it and make it appear in the smart playlist of recently played songs? Is iTunes 11 so obsessed with 11 that if a song isn't 11 seconds long, it doesn't consider it to be worth tracking?

    I am having this exact same issue in iTunes 11 running on OSX 10.6.8.
    Short tracks (less than 10sec) do not update their metadata to increase the play count. However if I play a short track on my iPod or iPhone and then sync with iTunes the play count and last played info is updated.
    This really messes up my smart playlists that use playcount limiters.
    I hope there is a fix for this soon.
