What about real developer feed-back?

A feature that I'd love to see is a real development team/community dialogue.
Most of the features that i'd like to see and miss in Illustrator have been asked many, many times by contributors of this forum.
However, I have seen few replies or explanations coming from the Illustrator team about particular features, the rationale of the choices they made, the direction of new updates, or the vision for their product in general. I find this silence frustrating.
I could live without features if i know that they are not feasible, but i don't want to waste my time asking for something millions of times.
It's my impression that the developer team don't do a very good job keeping a public communication with the users community, professionals etc.
Maybe I'm wrong, but I find much more constructive dialogues in other products communities- and as a result, I'm a much more happy customer and user.
I know that Adobe PR has received (and will receive) lot of complains about the discontinuation of Freehand and that forums and communities are riotous by nature- but I think a better communication would be a definitive feature for the improvement of a product that aspires to be the vector drawing standard (and monopoly)

Seconded. It'd be nice to hear from the makers every now and then.

Apple Support ignores me completely, there is no way I can complain about lack of feed back and I even have paid for a protection plan!

I have paid for an extended support through the Apple protection plan. Frankly I do not understand what I´ve paid for as there is no support and no plan, except ignorance and waiting time.
I have had and still have serious problem with my Mac Book Pro, and spent loads of money on phone charges with mainly negative results. All I have "achieved" is wasted time. I just wonder if it is only me who feel totally helpless as the Support People are not really helping. I´ve spent approsmimately 200 USD in phonecharges on their support phone, so far. But that is nothing compared to the hours spent waiting for answer and listening no absolute nonsense. Finally I went to an Apple store who sent the machine in for repair, and one fault was the motherboard. However I could still not connect with my Time Capsule and Aperture seemed to have lost all my photos. This all happende after upgrading to Mountail Lion. Also the cable network isn´t working. I can easily see on the net that I am not the only one with problems. I´ve ended up with solving most of this myself, except the network connection. It is still not working.
I am actually deeply dissapointed with Apple and I cannot find any way to even forward a complaint. Not that I believe it would help, but at least I´ve tried. I also think it would be fair to to get my money back for a product I´ve paid for which obviously isn´t working, namely the Apple Care Protection Plan.

Hi, so you suggest I should be grateful for getting what I have paid for? Sorry but that's only getting what I paid for. Add to that, that this has been against the phone support I've used a lot of time and money for! I don't feel anything but hopelessness for the total lack of customer support. An expensive Mac Book Pro shouldn't fail after 2 years in the first place! But failure may of course happen with the best products, and Apple as well. The real fault however is Apple's arrogance and failure to fix it! Instead of getting help and guidance to a solution, I used hours and lost days of work, and was made to pay a lot for total unusable "assistance". I was even adviced to hold back on taking the Mac Book Pro to a store, as I was told the support person a senior, would figure it out. Well Apple definiately squezzed the lemon! Since the Time Capsule/Time Machine system didn't fuction I was also in a stale mate as I needed assurance that My files wasn't lost when delivering the machine for repair. I was adviced that could happen. Quite a deadlock wasn't it! As an expert on Quality Assurance I was also suffering lost revenue in my work for clients. I finally had to buy a Samsung Ultrabook as working machine and backup, a neccesity as Apple obviously cannot be trusted when needed. Bill Gates and Windows has one advantage over Apple, they know things can go wrong and hence have much better support. Apple support is a maze were only the strongest and most persistent get through. I am one as I didn't accept being treated like that. That's the only reason I finally got a repair. However the machine is still not functioning as mentioned. I have a case number, a phone number and mail address to a senior support person, whom I've been trying to contact for more than a week, He has still not responded to my mails or phone calls. I cannot even figure out how to contact Apple to complain about such ignorance. Note by the way that here in Norway I must pay to call support and more often than not there is more than half an hour waiting time. I might spend hundred of dollars in that "game" without even knowing that I will get the support I've paid for and only keep paying even more for wasting my time! This is simply not good enough, it is no less than arrogant and wrong! I frankly think Apple is doing a big mistake with such por treatmen of their customers.

What about real hebrew spellcheck in mac osx?

Making iWork with hebrew support is a progress, and there are third party solutions for hebrew spellchecking, but its noy the real thing.

For apple to see your request, you need to post it at

If you have FCPX (10) you can upgrade for free at the MacApp Store.
Did you click "proxy media" when importing? That will help playback.

HT4946 in-app purchases are backed up but what about the apps themselves (purchased and free)?

Are the apps backed up too or do they need to be purchased, downloaded and installed again?

You can transfer your purchases to computer iTunes.

BTW, you can alway re-download again for free if it's still available in the app store.

Mifi 4510L Mifi Hotspot...is it the network? and what about the firmware update?

I have spent several months trying to seek a solution on the repeated and frequent disconnects from the Verizon wireless network using my Mifi 4510 L. No success. I have conversed with Verizon Wireless "experts" on this matter and have basically been ignored, since they do not have a solution. It has cost me a pretty penny in wireless costs due to lost connections in downloads, etc...for which I do not get any credit from Verizon on my wireless bill...go figure.
I have even been accused by Verizon that the problem is my computer and hardware, even though I have ran several hardware, software, and "real-life" connection checks on other wireless networks with no issues at all. I even have been getting better connectivity when I use my Verizon USB UML290...but I hate having to switch moving my SIM card from the USB Modem to the MIfi4510L...one of these days the SIM card will fail. Verizon has checked the signal strength at my home and work locations (which I already knew as good), but never heard back from them.
Anyway, I have verified that my wireless network adapter works just fine on other wireless networks (no dropouts, etc). I have even upgraded to another Windows Operating System - Windows 7...which is more superior than Vista in dealing with wireless communications. I have implemented quite a number of the solutions provided by other great Verizon Wireless Community members, but the connectivity problems continue to occur.
When I did a review of my wireless hardware logs, I noticed that when I was encountering problems, the dynamically assigned address given to me on the Verizon Wireless network changed quite a bit, even when I was using the same web site. When my wireless connection worked fine, the dynamically assigned address was consistent. This seemed to change when I encounter peak network load times.
I would appreciate a straight answer from Verizon Wireless on what is going on with the network. I live in a solid 3G coverage area...but just far away from 4G to benefit for the increased throughput. The closest 4G location footprint is about 40 miles away from me.
Finally, what about the Mifi 4510 L firmware update? I have yet to see any notification about this firmware update, either through normal e-mail channels or even through my Mifi configuration site
http://192.168.1.1/mifi.cgi
What gives?
I realize that I am sounding a little perturbed about this matter, but it has been almost 4 months now...and Verizon is not living up to their part of the bargain on providing good tech support on the Mifi 4510L. When they do not have an answer...they ignore the customer. Not good business!!!

The firmware update was released a few weeks ago and there were multiple threads in this forum for it:
Software Update: Verizon Wireless 4G LTE Mobile Hotspot MiFi™ 4510L
The firmware update primarily addresses a problem with the MiFi switching from 3G to 4G and back. I would not expect it to resolve a connection issue for anyone in a 3G only area. Work through the firmware update instructions included in the link above and see if it helps.
There were no email notifications but the MiFi should have been redirecting you to the MiFi homepage every time you tried to browse the internet. The firmware update is mandatory so if you have not already completed the update then there might be something wrong with your device.

Tim Cook said sorry for IOS6 maps, what about WiFi...

Been exhausted more than a week about the wifi connections, tried every way I could find to fix it, router settings change, re-start the net work, wiped all data and registered again, invested a new router....Nothing work...
I called apple servise they told me exactly the same I already tried before, no help at all, asked them when this bug can be fixed, they don't know...
Today TK said sorry about maps but what about the WiFi, noboday in apple know this is a huge bug? Or they know and they just don't care? Or they care but they just don't know how to fix it? Or they know how to fix it but they just too slow?
Actually the WiFi is more fundamental than map, without it, ipad (wifi only version) can not even work.
Does any one know Tim Cook's email so I can send this to him?

The Maps and YouTube issues have been addressed before, but again:
Google is reportedly working on releasing an app for their maps themselves. Until then, you can use their mobile web site or one of the alternate maps apps, many of which have been suggested in other threads. Google already has a YouTube app, though not yet one that takes advantage of the iPad's screen, but there are many other YouTube apps;
I don't know what you mean by "full screen support" being missing;
AirPlay works fine for me;
If you wish to sell your Apple products, though, by all means go ahead if you feel that some other products would suit you better. You might want to look at the FBI warning about malware on Android devices before you decide that the "Apple control freaks" are totally without merit and you go running to Android systems.
Clearly when you bash a product they don't want you posting on their site.
Nonsense, as any quick scan of the forums would quickly show. But the terms of use here clearly state that posts that are nothing but complaints are inappropriate and may be removed.
I see no purpose to your post since you've apparently already decided what you intend to do. If you want real assistance, by all means post back and ask, but if you just want to rant, I'd suggest you not waste your time and spend it posting your stuff for sale on appropriate sites (of which this is not one).
Regards.

What about MS Access VBA where does that go?

Hello Folks newbie here,
This is the closest form that matched my needs. New to Oracle. Have around 4+ yrs with Access. Access has reached some limitations hence I downloaded Oracle Xpress Edition ("Access on steriods" as the white paper calls it). Well if thats the case then I hope somebody can point me in the right direction.
I'm looking to re-design my current desktop app. into Web App. My current Access / Excel / VBA is a legacy system. The Web interface part required is having Excel Spreadsheets viewed, edited online and any changes would go back to the Oracle Express edtion DB.
I think moving the access tables to Oracle is pretty straight forward. What about all the VBA modules where do those go?
Well hope to hear back.

What about CMOD and SMOD

hi
           I am satish, i want to know the user exits transactions what is SMOD and CMOD. What about the functionality of those.
I will be thankfull to all

Hi,
CMOD is the Project Management of SAP Enhancements (i.e., SMOD Enhancements). SMOD contains the actual enhancements and CMOD is the grouping of those SMOD enhancements.
User exits (Function module exits) are exits developed by SAP. The exit is implementerd as a call to a function module. The code for the function module is written by the developer. You are not writing the code directly in the function module, but in the include that is implemented in the function module.
The naming standard of function modules for function module exits is:
EXIT_<program name><3 digit suffix>
The call to a functionmodule exit is implemented as:
CALL CUSTOMER.-FUNCTION <3 digit suffix>
For Example:
The program for transaction VA01 Create salesorder is SAPMV45A
1. If you search for CALL CUSTOMER-FUNCTION program SAPMV45A you will find ( Among other user exits):
CALL CUSTOMER-FUNCTION '003'
exporting
    xvbak   = vbak
    xvbuk   = vbuk
    xkomk   = tkomk
importing
    lvf_subrc = lvf_subrc
tables
    xvbfa = xvbfa
    xvbap = xvbap
    xvbup = xvbup.
The exit calls function module EXIT_SAPMV45A_003
2. How to find user exits
Display the program where you are searching for and exit and search for CALL CUSTOMER-EXIT
If you know the Exit name, go to transaction CMOD. Choose menu Utillities->SAP Enhancements.
Enter the exit name and press enter.
You will now come to a screen that shows the function module exits for the exit.
or use this ABAP program to search for user exits :-
Finding the user-exits of a SAP transaction code
3. Using Project management of SAP Enhancements
You want to create a project to enhance transaction VA01
- Go to transaction CMOD
- Create a project called ZVA01
- Choose the Enhancement assign radio button and press the Change button
In the first column enter V45A0002 Predefine sold-to party in sales document . Note that an enhancement can only be used for 1 project. If the enhancement is allready in use, and error message will be displayed
- Press Save
- Press Components. You can now see that enhancement uses user exit EXIT_SAPMV45A_002.
- Double Click on the exit.
Now the function module is displayed. Double click on include ZXVVAU04 in the function module
Insert the following code into the include: E_KUNNR = '2155'.
Activate the include program. Go back to CMOD and activate the project.
Goto transaction VA01 and create a salesorder. Note that Sold-to-party now automatically is "2155"
Kindly reward points by clicking the star on the left of reply,if it helps.

A better manual? & what about photo stream from Aperture?

Is there a better manual for ATV other than the one that came with it? I find that one VERY lacking in operating instructions for the ATV.
And what about setting up to stream photos from my photos in Aperture? The only options in the menu are Flickr, Mobile Me and to sync. Syncing all my photos would really eat up the HD space! I would rather stream.
Looks like the option to stream photos from Aperture was eliminated with the last ATV firmware update. What gives Apple??

I have a similar problem using photo stream, turned it on the other day after I had been emailing pics from my laptop and then opened mail on my iPad and opened pics which were all high resolution, photos looked great in photos and albums, but a couple of hours later when they had downloaded in photo stream they were pixelated. They also streamed to my iPhone 4 and the same problem there. A couple of months ago I installed iPhoto on my phone and edited a pic that was on my phone and when saved it also pixelated. I'm beginning to think this is maybe the cause of this, because as I have said, these are high res files and look great when viewed through camera roll, photos or albums, it's only the photo stream folder that is affected. Does photo stream down sample images? Doesn't explain why the iPhoto edit on my phone pixelated though. real curious as to why this is happening, maybe just turn photo stream off.

Its availble unblocked iphone 4s in apple store ? if yes what about the price ? if not can u help me to advise me where can i buy it ? thanks

its availble to get unblocked iphone 4s from apple store ? if yes what about its price ? if not can u help me to get it .

Pricing hasnt been announced as far as I know, but the Apple Store said unlocked iPhones will be available in November. Seeing as its the 30th of October, maybe check back within the next week or two?
Cost will probably be somewhere between $550-900 US depending on model/storage space.

What about session memory when using BEA Weblogic connection pooling?

Hi,
consider a web application, allowing database connections via a BEA Weblogic 8.1 application server. The app-server is pooling the oracle connections. The oracle database is running in dedicated server mode.
How are the database requests from the web app served by the connection pool from BEA?
1) Does one oracle session serve more than one request simultanously?
2) Does BEA serialize the requests, which means, that a session from the pool is always serving only one request at a time?
If (1) is true, than what about the session memory of Oracle sessions? I understand, that things like package global variables are beeing stored in this session private memory. If (1) is true, the PL/SQL programmer has the same situation, as with programming an Oracle databas in "shared server" mode, that is, he should not use package global variables etc.
Thankful for any ideas...

Reading "Configuring and Using WebLogic JDBC" from weblogic8.1 documentation, I read:
"... Your application "borrows" a connection from the pool, uses it, then returns it to the pool by closing it...."
What do you mean by returning the connection by closing it? Tbe server will either return the connection to the pool or close it...When application code does typical jdbc code, it obtains
a connection via a WebLogic DataSource, which reserves an
unused pooled connection and passes it (transparently wrapped)
to the application. The application uses it, and then closes
it. WebLogic intercepts the close() call via the wrapper, and
puts the DBMS connection back into the WebLogic pool.
The reason, why I as an Oracle programmer ask this is, because every session (=connection)
in Oracle has its own dedicate, private memory for things like global PL/SQL variables.
Now I want to figure out, if you have to careful in programming your databases, when
one Oracle session (=connection) is serving many weblogic requests.It is serving many requests, but always serially. Do note however, that we
also transparently cache/pool prepared and callable statements with the
connection so repeat uses of the connection will be able to get already-made
statements when they call prepareStatement() and prepareCall(). These
long-lived statements will each require a DBMS-side cursor.

What team-based development tool can you recommend?

Our team works on a Windows 2000 platform and an Oracle 8i database. Can anyone recommend a good team-based development tool that we can use with our JDeveloper? What about tools like webDAV, Rational ClearCase? Are they easy to use and easy to deploy? What else is out there that already works for you?
Thanks.

Whats the real size of a 1TB drive?

Hello,
Whats the real storage size of a 1TB drive? I just formatted a 1TB drive in Disk Utility using Mac OS Extended (Journaled) and the disc is running about 931.5. Where does the rest of the storage go?
thanks

-> http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1867 (this article is for iPods but this info applies to all disk drives)
"Why the difference? Most hard disk manufacturers measure disk size this way: 1 MB = 1 million bytes (1000 * 1000). A 4 GB disk, therefore, is one that holds 4 billion bytes. Computers, including Windows computers, Macintosh computers and iPod, measure disk size this way: 1 MB = 1 048 576 bytes (1024 * 1024). The difference in these two calculations is what causes the drive to appear as 3.7 GB on a computer, but actually be a 4 billion byte disk."
