Weak construction!

Hi i bought the Evo ZxR headset. First impression was realy nice then i listen to them and the sound is freaking amazing even the mic is realy good. But then i had played some games and just took them off and heard a breaking noice from the headphones. Oh no and they had braked just where the speaker is attached to the headband. you have 2 screwmounts and they did brake. looked at these and they was made of plastic. Did talk to the company where i bought them and got a pair of new ones. Now i had them about 2 month and they did brake again on exactly the same place. How can they even do a ****ty construction like that on a headset that cost 350 $?
Today i must call the company again about the same problem. Have been realy careful with them when i take them on and off bec i knew they are weak there. But now i am scared that the company will say its my fault and wont send me new ones.
Now i wonder if any else had the same issue with this headset?
Sorry for my bad English.

Scan for file and report back if it exists

Hello,
I am new to scripting and trying to find a way to search for a supposed virus file named wsr[any two numbers]zt32.dll on a large group of computers. I'm not sure how or where to use Get-ChildItem -Path C:\Users -Filter ?zt32.dll -Recurse | export-csv
C:\scripts\output\test.csv in this script.
The below script keeps erroring out when I try messing with the Test-Path options and I'm not sure where to use Get-ChildItem or whatever to get this working. Thanks
# Edit these variables to fit your enviroment
# Set file to be tested for, put everything after c:\
# “c:\Users\Default” is the example path
$filetofind = ‘wsr*zt32.dll ‘
# Hostnames TXT Location
$hostnamestxt = ‘C:\scripts\computernames.txt‘
# Destination file for Online Machines
$onlinetxt = ‘C:\scripts\output\Machines_with_file.txt‘
# Destination file for Offline Machines
$offlinetxt = ‘C:\scripts\output\Offline_Machines.txt‘
# Begin Executing Script – Do Not Edit Below This Line
$computers = get-content “$hostnamestxt”

if(test-path “\\$computer\c:\users\* -include $filetofind”)
echo “$computer” | Out-File -Append “$onlinetxt”
write-host “File FOUND on $computer”
else
{write-host “File NOT found on $computer”}

echo “$computer” | Out-File -Append “$offlinetxt”
write-host “$computer is OFFLINE/DID NOT RESPOND TO PING”

write-host “Script has completed please check output.”
write-host “Hosts with file output location – $onlinetxt”
write-host “Hosts that were unpingable output location – $offlinetxt”

Although this works, it appears to be very slow. Also, the Offline machines are not getting logged. Is there a way to speed this up? I am reading about how gci is slow over UNC, but I'm going to have to research this more. Thanks
This makes the third time you have demanded someone custom build a solution for you. You need to step back and think about what you are doing. The solution was provided as you asked for it. You lack of technical experience led you to ask
fot a now unworkable solution so you are asking for more free consulting and a new solution.
As Bill has pointed out this should be done with AV software as just finding the fiole will accomplish nothing. If your system is infected you need to rake more aggressive steps and you should not be trying to write a scripted solution for this kind
of thing aunless you have the technical sjkills to understand what it is you are doing.
All remote scan methods are very slow. To do a local scan requires emoting to be installed and that you know how to use it, Once remoting is installed a single line will get you the file existence. Adding an AsJob will get you concurrent
scanning. You will need to learn how to use PowerShell and WMF remoting to proceed with this. An AV scanner 2would be more valuable and it would protect you in the future.
Also as I posted before this is a very weak construct for file scanning on a network.
$g = get-childitem \\$computer\c$\user\*
-recurse -ErrorActionsilentlycontinue
|? {$_.name
-match "wsr[0-9][0-9]zt32.dll"}
The following will be much faster.
$g = get-childitem \\$computer\c$\user\* -Include
wsr*zt32.dll -recurse
-ErrorActionsilentlycontinue
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Can anyone tell me or give me a link to the latest response from Apple regarding very real weak wifi signal on what seems to be a batch of both the new ipad and the earlier Ipad2. I have just bought a 2nd hand ipad2 and it has a very weak wifi signal

Over the last week or so I have been trawling the internet looking for references to weak wifi signals on the Ipad2 and was staggered by the sheer quantity of people who seem to have identical issues, not just with the ipad2 but also with the new ipad. What annoyed me most from reading the reams upon reams of comments made on the Apple community forum is the fairly large number of people who seemed to believe that 'these' people were either just moaners and wingers or else they must have something wrong with their router set-up rather than a serious fault with their ipad and it seems all because there ipad in question works like a dream.
Obviously I can only speak from my experience, and that is, I have an ipad2 32GB with wifi, purchased about 6 months ago and it works like dream with a good 2-3 bar wifi signal through 2 thick stone walls over 30 feet away. My router is a standard one supplied by my broadband supplier compatible with all 'g','b' and 'n' equipment. However, over a week ago now I bought second hand genuine ipad2 16GB with wifi from a close friend who has just purchased a new ipad3 to replace his old ipad2 (had it for over a year so no longer under warranty). When I started it up downstairs from my router, where I always use my other ipad2 which has a very strong wifi signal, I discovered that the new secondhand ipad2 I had purchased couldnt find a network signal at all. So after doing network resets and all other 'fixes' on the device recommended, I took it upstairs to my office where the router is based and found that the device could now locate the network, but the signal was lost over only 12 feet from the router!
I quizzed my good friend about this issue and he informed me that it has always been like this since he first purchased it and he never thought that it was a fault, it was just the way it was. When he first aquired the device he did think at the time that this distance was poor, but thought nothing of it as he didnt have any other ipad to measur ethe signal strength against, and as his router was in his living room anyway he nothing of it. Fair enough.
So, there we have it. One ipad2 with a very good wifi signal and another ipad2 with a very poor wifi signal running off the same router, both with the same IOS 5.0. ?
As well as all of the other isues that customers have picked up on, such as 'death grip' (which I must say does appear to happen, but personally i dont think that this is a serious issue if you are aware of this issue and have a strong signal anyway), my experience seems to be a good example of a 'duff' wifi ipad versus a 'great' wifi ipad', an issue confirmed by complaints from a fairly large number of customers who have also reported the same or similar weak wifi signals with both the ipad2 and the ipad3. So, as this shows the weak wifi signal is a very real issue it seems on a batch of ipad2 and 3's, which to my logic is obviously a hardware issue on a batch of early ipad2's and not a software one, otherwise all ipad's would suffer this problem! So, is it a faulty antenna or a faukty network card in an early batch?
So, the bottom line now is, of course, firstly, how can I get Apple to fix my other ipad2 when the warranty has run out? Any suggestions anyone?
Personally I think good Apple customer service should offer a recall with a replacement on this apparent batch of ipads, dont you?

Greetings,
I've never seen this issue, and I handle many iPads, of all versions. WiFi issues are generally local to the WiFi router - they are not all of the same quality, range, immunity to interference, etc. You have distance, building construction, and the biggie - interference.
At home, I use Apple routers, and have no issues with any of my WiFi enabled devices, computers, mobile devices, etc - even the lowly PeeCees. I have locations where I have Juniper Networks, as well as Aruba, and a few Netgears - all of them work as they should.
The cheaper routers, Linksys, D-Link, Seimens home units, and many other no name devices have caused issues of various kinds, and even connectivity.
I have no idea what Starbucks uses, but I always have a good connection, and I go there nearly every morning and get some work done, as well as play.
You could try changing channels, 2.4 to 5 Gigs, changing locations of the router. I have had to do all of these at one time or another over the many years that I have been a Network Engineer.
Good Luck - Cheers,
M.

Why is the signal at my home so much weaker than when I moved here in February 2013? I only get one or two bars and very poor data service if any at all.

Why is the signal at my home so much weaker than it was when I moved here in February 2013? I get only one or two bars and very poor data service if any at all. Calling to ask the question results in a vortex of questions that have little to do with the problem and no resolution or answer.

I have a Droid Ultra phone. The signal reduction seems to only be in the general area of my home. If I go downtown, the signal improves to what it once was at home. Everything at my home is as it was when the signal was good, including cable TV service. There has been no new construction in the area that I know of.
Thanks for trying to resolve the issue. Just this morning while trying to view web pages, I found that I could not load any.

Weak References in Listener Lists

I've found a common source of memory leaks is when objects that add themselves to listener lists forget to remove themselves when they are done.
It would be nice to generalize and say that listener lists should contain weak references, but there are probably valid cases where a listener's only valid reference is through the listener list.
It would be nice to extend the listener pattern so that the listener could specify if they should be referenced weakly, for examplemodel.addChangeListener(this, true)where true indicates the reference to the listener should be weak.
In some cases like the Model View Controller pattern, it probably makes sense that whenever a view listens to a model it should be weakly referenced. For example, when you construct a JTable and pass the model as a parameter to the constructor, the JTable should always specify a weak reference when it listens to the model.
I think supporting a feature like this in the listener APIs could help reduce the potential for memory leaks and make code a little more maintainable.

There was another time that I dabbled in this idea.
But it always comes back to objects cleaning up
after themselves. Now if its not your code and you
cant ensure good behavior, then perhaps there is
cause. But I'd keep an assert and report the issue
if I saw it trigger.What would fire the assert? The Listener will never be garbage collected while it is listening to something. I assume that you are talking about when the listener is a Swing Object like a JFrame. I don't really like to use gui components as listeners.
If you have to write a clean up method, it kind of defeats the value of having automatic garbage collection to a degree. I like to be able to let my Objects just fall out of scope or just become unreachable when they are no longer needed without having to actively manage their deallocation.

In my report there is a column link which is pointing to another HTML page that has xml data displayed in a textarea field. So when user clicks on the column link, he gets to directed to the page that have the xml data in text format.

How to Dynamically construct the conditional IF statement in java

Is there a way to dynamically construct a conditional IF statement in java?
For example:
Suppose i have a 2D array like:
Array[the actual values to search for][the column number in the table to perform the search on].
e.g.
Array {
             {"x"} , {1},
             {"y"} , {2},
             {"z"} , {3},
}How can i construct the if statement like:
Looping over table rows (tableRow) {
    Looping over array {
        IF ( {"x"}. equals( tableModel.getValueAt( tableRow, {1})   &&
               {"y"}. equals( tableModel.getValueAt( tableRow, {2})   &&
               {"z"}. equals( tableModel.getValueAt( tableRow, {3}) )
        return true;
}The array can grow or shrink based on the values in it so therefore IF statement will grow or shrink. How can i achieve it?
If not then how can i achieve this?

My understanding (feeble at best) is that a sieries of && elements will be evaluated in order until the first false value is encountered. So, in an "if a && b && c" statement where b is false c will never be evaluated and the conditional executable will not run. Is that what you mean?
Yes, logical expressions will not evaluate unnecessary operands. So you can safely write the following, for instance, without getting an error,
if ((anArray != null) && (anArray.length > 0)) { ... }because the second operand of the '&&' will never be evaluated if 'anArray' is null.
Also, is there a difference between & and &&?
& is a bitwise operator, && is a boolean operator.

How to create Auto weakly backup in Windows Server 2012

Hello
1. I want to set auto backup in windows server 2012 Weakly.
2. can i Set auto backup like a normal data copy.

By configuring automatic backup, you can schedule this task according to your choice(weekly/monthly). You can use backup schedule wizard accessed from the Windows Server Backup user interface (Wbadmin.msc).
To schedule backup task by using powershell, please checkout this link :

How to construct the component tree in my custom component?Help!

Hi, i am writing a custom component like this:
public class HtmlCategory extends HtmlPanelGrid
     public void processRestoreState(javax.faces.context.FacesContext context,
            java.lang.Object state)
          setColumns(1);
          HtmlCommandLink link=new HtmlCommandLink();
          link.setValue("Let's Bingo");
          MyUtil.setActionListener(context,link,"#{temp.mytest}");
          UIParameter param=new UIParameter();
          param.setName("name");
          param.setValue("Robin!");
          link.getChildren().add(param);
          param.setParent(link);
          getChildren().add(link);
          link.setParent(this);
          super.processRestoreState(context,state);
}         you see, i want to construct the compont tree at Restore View phase this way,because the structure of the component tree will always be the same, so i don't the user to write extra code.
But the children of the component are not rendered,the renderer of the HtmlCategory component just extends the HtmlGridRenderer(myfaces) directly,and always calls the "super" methods in the encode methods of the renderer.
I got a message from the console:
Wrong columns attribute for PanelGrid id0:id4: -2147483648
but i have set the columns attribute in the code above, so what's happening? or please give some advice about how to render the component tree by myself in Restore View with the tree constructing code in the custom component class code,just lke the code above.
Best Regards:)
Robin

Well, i don't know if i have got my question clear.
usually, according to the tags you use in the jsf page, a component tree will be created at the Restore View phase,for example:
<f:form>
<h:panelGrid ...........>
          <h:dataTable ................>
          </h:dataTable>
   </h:panelGrid>
</f:form>but because i am writing a component for my web app, all the child components and their attributes are not likely to change. so i want to reduce the tags into one custom tag, and construct the component tree internally by myself.But it is not the case of backing bean.So i wrote the the code in the method:
public void processRestoreState(javax.faces.context.FacesContext context,java.lang.Object state)as it is shown in my orginal message.But it seems that it is not right way to construct my component tree.So where should i put the code that construct the component tree?Overriding the method :
public void processRestoreState(javax.faces.context.FacesContext context,java.lang.Object state)is not the right way?
Best Regards:)

Randomly weak/barely functional wifi on Early 2011 Macbook Pro running Lion 10.7.2, out of ideas. Help?

Hey there, boys and girls!
As of August 2011, I am the proud owner of a brand new 13 inch Macbook Pro! Being a tech geek, I have always wanted the opportunity to play with OS X, and I was pretty thrilled by my purchase. However, mere weeks after getting my shiny new computer, the wifi issues started. For no reason at all, it would seem as if my connection was dropped entirely, but checking activity monitor showed that the signal had simply capped off at about 6 kb/s. This issue has continued to randomly strike when I am trying to do something online, and almost always when it is something important. These issues have continued throughout the Fall of this year, and school has kept me too busy to actually get hardcore on this problem. The time has come.
I have read **** near every stinking article on the internet about this problem, and tried every solution that I have seen.
Here is the info I have:
*When the problem occurs, opening activity monitor and choosing "Network" shows a graph that maxes out at 6kb/s, sometimes less. There are characteristic spikes of activity, which are usually between 0 and 2 kb/s. It happens COMPLETELY at random, and for utterly variant spans of time. Sometimes it happens 8 times a day, for hours each time; other times, I get it once a day for about 15 minutes. There is no rhyme or reason to it.
*It happens most frequently on my home network. I am using a Netgear Wireless N router (a new one, at that) which I have configured to serve as wireless router and DHCP server for my Verizon router (on which I have disabled wireless and left essentially as a modem). However, the problem has also occurred outside of my home network.
*It's just my Mac. Every other device connected to the network continues to function normally when the cap occurs.
*Whatever data IS moving when the cap occurs is not user data; in other words, I cannot discern the source of the weak trickle of data that continues when the problem happens. During the problem, I cannot ping in terminal, or use any Internet-connected applications or browsers.
Here are some solutions I have tried which did absolutely NOTHING to resolve the problem:
*Rebooting (duh). Problem remains directly following reboot if it was happening right before reboot.
*Turning wifi off and on again (duh some more)
*Using other browsers/networked applications (also duh)
*Erasing all setting connection files so that they are forced to rebuild (4 plist files in library/preferences/systemconfiguartion)
*Erasing and re-adding networks from the remembered networks list
*Repair disk permissions and disk volume from recovery.
*Reset PRAM
*Keep a terminal window running that just pings a remote server endlessly. This basically cuts off as well when the problem shows up.
No combination of the following worked (and I tried each separately and in tandem, when applicable):
*Change the network location to a custom one
*Set a static IP
*Renew DHCP lease after location reset
I'm basically at my wit's end here. I am technically savvy enough to try basically any solution, but I seem to have run out of options. Does anyone have any solutions I haven't tried? The only other potentially relevant thing I can think of is that I did clone my original 320GB HDD over to a 500GB HDD near the start, but that shouldn't have anything to do with this... right?
I remember being eager to get this machine, but this network plague has me missing my broken-down heap of an old PC. For all it's various shortcomings, was at least able to connect to the **** internet consistently. I thought 10.7.2 would fix the problem... but nope. No help from Apple either. I'm pretty sick of this issue already.

Hey there, boys and girls!
As of August 2011, I am the proud owner of a brand new 13 inch Macbook Pro! Being a tech geek, I have always wanted the opportunity to play with OS X, and I was pretty thrilled by my purchase. However, mere weeks after getting my shiny new computer, the wifi issues started. For no reason at all, it would seem as if my connection was dropped entirely, but checking activity monitor showed that the signal had simply capped off at about 6 kb/s. This issue has continued to randomly strike when I am trying to do something online, and almost always when it is something important. These issues have continued throughout the Fall of this year, and school has kept me too busy to actually get hardcore on this problem. The time has come.
I have read **** near every stinking article on the internet about this problem, and tried every solution that I have seen.
Here is the info I have:
*When the problem occurs, opening activity monitor and choosing "Network" shows a graph that maxes out at 6kb/s, sometimes less. There are characteristic spikes of activity, which are usually between 0 and 2 kb/s. It happens COMPLETELY at random, and for utterly variant spans of time. Sometimes it happens 8 times a day, for hours each time; other times, I get it once a day for about 15 minutes. There is no rhyme or reason to it.
*It happens most frequently on my home network. I am using a Netgear Wireless N router (a new one, at that) which I have configured to serve as wireless router and DHCP server for my Verizon router (on which I have disabled wireless and left essentially as a modem). However, the problem has also occurred outside of my home network.

Weak construction!
