What good are diameter circles in Reminders?

I don't understand why these circles exist, because I can't get them to work. I have occasionally set them at hundreds or even thousands of feet away from my destination to remind me to stop at a store location. My assumption is that once I hit that circle, or even get slightly within it, the Reminder will go off. However, this has not worked. The Reminder does not fire until I've pulled up to the store's door, which ordinarily would be too late (these are on the occasions when I remembered without Reminders). However, occasionally, the Reminder did not go off, only to go off days later when I came from the other direction.
I have tested this several ways. I have used both the "When I Arrive" and "When I Leave" settings. I have used both with the Reminders app open, on-screen, and/or with it running in the background. I have tested it with Reminders closed. In Settings, I have Background App Refresh turned on AND the Background App Refresh/Reminders turned on. Under Privacy, Location Services is turned on as well.
Can anyone help?

The most direct use is if you use the Starling Framework for game development. Starling is an ActionScript version of the popular Sparrow framework. You can use sprite sheets to transfer you assets into Starling-friendly version.

What good are databases if you cannot use them

Hello;
My company has the same model for access to database no matter if its Production, Test or Dev.
I believe the one size fits all model is incorrect and would like some feedback Pro and Con why access should be the same or different.

The only reason version has nothing to do with the question is because you are now clarifying your question to state that you want version ignored. Mark was correct since different versions have different functionality, e.g. compression and encryption support. You can't expect the same policy for a DEV database that doesn't support encryption as you have for a PROD database that does. Same with RAC - many shops don't use RAC for dev.
Also you never responded to Mark's other comment:

You provide no description of exactly what restrictions your employer has in place that you have difficulty with

Would you support these policies for all of your environments?

1. The schema owner can delete data from any table they choose whenever they want.
2. The schema owner can grant all privileges to their objects to whomever they want.

I sure hope that isn't what you mean.
The point being that there are many restrictions that should be different between different environments in order to maintain the degree of control over those environments that is needed by the business.
The data in the PROD environment is usually more sensitive and can have legal requirements as to who is allowed access to that data and what they are allowed to do with the data. Those requirements can be vastly different than what are needed for a DEV environment.
So provide some specifics about what restrictions your employer has that you think cause a problem. Or provide an example of what you need to do in a particular environment and how you can get it done given the restrictions that are in place.
The only argument that I have ever found effective with management is to document the COST associated with a policy or rule that they have in place. The cost can be in resources, time. An example of this might be the overhead (resources, time) involved with having to log a service request, get a DBA or Weblogic person involved just to make a simple table change in DEV or see what errors might have been generated in a Weblogic log file.
If they realize that the turnaround for that is several days to do something you could have done in a few minutes if you had the proper access then sometimes (not often I agree) you can get some things changed.
But you have to make a convincing argument that the change is needed and that it won't compromise any of their other concerns.
Which gets us back to what Mark was trying to find out. What are the concerns that caused management to implement their current policy, whatever that policy is?But to counter that ... how often have we seen code go to production and fail, because it relied on the less restrictive environment in dev? With proper QA and code promotion management in place, this shouldn't happen, but I've too often seen that to not be the case. Certainly we've seen that situation with commercial software that "requires" the application to run with DBA authority - simply because the developers were too lazy to figure out what was really required.

What good are the preview JPEGs? (newbie question)

Dear Folks,
I'm new to converting raws to DNGs, and I can't seem to find any use for the preview JPEGs that DNG converter can embed in the file.
Mac OSX (10.4.11) doesn't display them in Finder windows (Icon view mode). Get Info windows can show me a small preview whether or not I embed a JPEG. Mac OSX's Preview program can't display DNG files whether or not JPEGs are embedded in them. I don't see any difference in the functionality of Bridge and Photoshop whether they're there or not.
That pretty well describes my entire photo workflow, so if previews really are irrelevant to it, seems to me I might as well leave them out and save a little processing time and disk space.
Am I missing something obvious? (probably)
Thanks!
Ctein

Dear David (and Ramon),
Nope, no such implication whatsoever. I entirely understand the theoretical benefit. I've just been trying to find out if they'll benefit me.
BUT... here's an unexpected curiosity. I just ported one of my freshly-baked DNG file to a friend's brand new Mac, so it's running the latest versions of everything and it ought to be pretty much a stock configuration.
It can't read my DNG preview JPEG, either! When I drag the DNG file into the Preview app, it shows me a question mark, not a preview! I just double-checked, and I am generating the DNGs using the default settings in Adobe DNG Converter (medium JPEG, lossless compression, non-linear, no embedded RAW, etc.)
So, what's going on?! Ramon confirms that DNG previews should be viewable under Mac OSX. Either I'm doing something wrong (entirely likely) or there's something broken in A-DNG-C.
The DNG files I'm generating look perfectly fine in Adobe Bridge/ACR/Photoshop, by the way. It's something hinky with the JPEGs.
Anybody got a clue? I'm fresh out!

What good are the Panic Logs?

I have reported Panic Logs to my local Apple store and ask that they check the codes to identify what is causing the kernel panics. Here is a sample code below:
I highlighted the codes I mentioned. It seems to me that these codes should identify the hardware or problem area to check. If not, why even produce a log. You would think Apple would have a book of codes to help identify problems. I know hardware testing is necessary and may help identify a problem but sometimes Apple may send memory chips, a logic board when it fact if someone could identify the codes, it may point to something different. When Apple bring parts to your house, they are limited to only 5 replacment parts. These codes would provide a valuable resource but no one seems to take advantage of them, or no one has a clue about how to read or identify what the panic log is saying. Apple will not even contact anyone in development for help. What is your opinion??

If you received this exact error code in your Panic Log:
Uncorrectable Fbd memory error detected. ferr = 30000800 , nerr == 00000000
please tell me how Apple solved the problem?
Did they replace the memory? If so, how did they narrow down what chip was at fault.
Did they replace the logic card? Apple came to my house and could not remove the screws to take out the old motherboard. They indicated they have found that to be a problem with others.
Any other solutions to this panic log that Apple was able to solve?

What good are Master Slides if...

I can not edit them on the main timeline? I create a captivate template and use master slides with place holders. Then create a new project from the template and I can not edit the master slide with place holders. Right now all I can see using a master slide for is my background objects that are the same on every slide.
I was hoping that I was goign to be able to use master slides with my subject matter expert. That way all he had to do was pick a Master for a slide then type the info in the place holder. But that does not work. So I am back to using regular slides with place holders.
The whole concept of being able to add place holders to a masterslide seems strange to me if you can not edit them on the main timeline.

Hi folks
Indeed things get a bit muddy with the Master Slides concept and placeholders. I think this is further exacerbated with the whole concept of the panels.
In Captivate 4, when you created a Project Template and it had placeholders, you double-clicked the placeholder and a dialog popped up that you interacted with to configure the content. In Captivate 5 it appears that double-clicking the placeholder just tends to focus the properties panel for the objkect. And because the panels are so similar, it's quite often difficult to discern that anything changed. As a result, you may not think the template is working.
I agree that it seems counterintuitive to have an ability to insert a placeholder into a Master Slide, then apparently prevent access to edit the placeholder unless you are editing the Master Slide. What would seem more intuitive to me is that if placeholders were used in a Master Slide, they would be transferred to any new slides created using Insert > New Slide. I stand to be corrected on this, but I believe that's how PowerPoint works. So it would make sense if Captivate worked in a similar fashion as folks are generally already accustomed to working the way PowerPoint does.
For anyone reading this thread that would like to see changes made, please consider submitting a Wish Form and advise Adobe as to how you would like to see the behavior change. Don't be fooled into thinking that submitting a Wish Form is just a way to make you feel you have had your say. Adobe does see these. And if they see enough asking for the same feature or reporting the same issue, the Feature or Issue gains much higher priority.

What good are interfaces

? dont get it. why would you make an interface? can't you just declerate all the methods in the classes?

how experienced is someone that understands
interfaces? because i started just 1 day with java.
so should i try to understand interfaces now or wait
until i understand the rest a bit better?
(java is also the first language i learn. i know gml
reasonably but thats a super simple language for
people that want to make games, but not learn a
language)I wouldn't worry about them too much at the moment. Learn other things first and then take a look at them, they are a pretty simple concept and something you need to understand rather than learn. You will bump into them often enough if you continue learning the basics (from HelloWorld upwards).
As mentioned the Head First books are really good and you should aim to learn through books and practical exercises rather than random questions in forums. I understand your curiosity but go at your own pace and in 6 months or so things will be starting to make a lot more sense. There is obviously still a long way to go after this but the first 6 months are the pain barrier IMO.

What good are Creative cards then?

After reading the "Response to forum questions and latest updates" thread I have concluded that there's nothing special about Creative cards anymore.
Is there a difference in the Windows Vista and Windows XP implementation of the X-Fi CMSS3D feature?
Yes. The architecture of Vista doesn't allow a feature like CMSS-3D to operate in hardware for applications that use the Microsoft API's. If a game for example uses OpenAL, then CMSS-3D will run in hardware but if a Microsoft API is used it operates on the host within Windows Vista's application level effects architecture.
In other words, CMSS 3D, EAX and other technologies are only going to be hardware accelerated in games that support OpenAL (or going around this with Alchemy).
So what's so special about Creative cards then? What are we shelling most of our money on? The software/drivers?

Is there a difference in the Windows Vista and Windows XP implementation of the X-Fi CMSS3D feature?
Yes. The architecture of Vista doesn't allow a feature like CMSS-3D to operate in hardware for applications that use the Microsoft API's. If a game for example uses OpenAL, then CMSS-3D will run in hardware but if a Microsoft API is used it operates on the host within Windows Vista's application level effects architecture.
I also have read Creative's answer on CMSS and I want to ask a question. This answer about CMSS I have read is beatiful and has a lot of letters and words in it, but... it doesn't really answer the question. Will there be CMSS implemented into Creative's drivers? Personally I don't care how CMSS is going to be processed - with hardware or software, I am interested in button at EAX console called "CMSS", so when I press it - this function works.
I have Audigy 2 NX by the way.

What good are tabs if links open in a new window?

I seem to be gradually switching to all Apple: first the computer, then to Mail from Thunderbird, then iWork from OpenOffice, now I'm giving Safari a try, and I'm puzzled: there seems to be no way to get links to open in a new page.
At least when I selected what I thought was that option I has no effect. And what I thought applied to that option has the curious explanation that it applies only to links opened from other applications.
What purpose then is served by tabs.
Thanks,
Eric Weir

Go to System Preferences >> Mouse.
Set the scroll wheel to Button 3. Now when you mouse over a link, hit the scroll as a button, the link will now open in a new tab.
I agree with the OP, why can't we have the option like we did/do with Firefox?

Multiple Realms - What good are they?

If I create multiple realms in WL7 domain, how are they used by the server
to auth/auth a user? Is the default realm always used and the other realms
used only in case of failure?
Is there a way to configure an enterprise application to use a particular
realm for its auth/auth? Or do all applications always use the default
realm. It would be cool if weblogic-application.xml had a <default-realm>
element.

What good are Sprite sheets in CS6?

In Flash CS6 one can create sprite sheets. What benefit or relationship does this have to direct flash development? What is the primary purpose for Adobe putting this feature in CS6?

The most direct use is if you use the Starling Framework for game development. Starling is an ActionScript version of the popular Sparrow framework. You can use sprite sheets to transfer you assets into Starling-friendly version.

What good are roles?

Greetings All,
I am trying to eliminate granting the DBA role to our application users.
In doing so, I (as the CM_MASTER user which has been granted the DBA role) created a role called SR_PROJECT_ROLE and granted that role select, insert, update, and delete privileges on several CM_MASTER schema tables.
A new user was created (B1), and granted the roles CONNECT, RESOURCE (same as before), and the new SR_PROJECT_ROLE. When this new user tried to compile a package/procedure that references one of the CM_MASTER schema tables it failed because of: "PLS-00201: identifier 'CM_MASTER.TABLE_NAME' must be declared".
I checked, and the new SR_PROJECT_ROLE was a default role for the B1 user.
While researching this issue I found the statement below:
“The owner of the procedure or package must have been explicitly granted the necessary object privileges for all objects referenced within the body of the code; the owner cannot have obtained required privileges through roles.”
Is this true? My testing seems to confirm this. After I revoked the SR_PROJECT_ROLE from the user, and explicitly granted access to the CM_MASTER tables directly to the user B1, the package compiled successfully.
Our application currently has over 250 users. Roles would be a nice thing to use, if they worked.
Am I missing something here?
Thanks,
Bob

Snyds wrote:
My question was almost rhetorical in that if roles do not provide the privileges needed why use them.In most databases, you'll end up with a relatively small number of users that need to own PL/SQL objects and that need direct grants and boatloads of users that simply need permission to access objects owned by other users. Roles exist to simplify the task of managing the privileges of that vast majority of database user accounts and to provide additional security mechanisms. For example, roles can be made default or non-default or can require an additional password so your applications can easily enable or disable particular roles based on whatever logic you want or you can make it more difficult for users that fire up SQL*Plus connecting to the database to exercise their most dangerous privileges by requiring an extra step of enabling an additional role (with or without an additional password being required).
Since roles do not affect the privileges that PL/SQL code is compiled with, you also don't risk invalidating code when you grant or revoke roles from a user. On the other hand, if the DBA is granting or revoking system privileges from a user, Oracle may need to recompile the objects owned by that user.

What exactly are the updates good for on an ipod

I ask because mine is windows format, and im having trouble transferring all the metadata off my ipod with senuti to a back up so that i can reformat the ipod to mac and then sync in my senuti backed up library. I was wondering if anyone knows what exactly are the updates that you get. my ipod is 1.2 5thgen.
If i were to have the latest update would i be able to see album cover art view when the ipod is plugged into itunes? I noticed that i can see that view in library mode but not in ipod mode. (my pod isnt synced)...
so what are these updates good for?

hey thanks for your reply.
I do have it set to manual and i can see the art on the ipod by itself, but even with manual transfer itunes wont let me view the artwork modes unless i am playing off my computers library (which doesn't have the songs on my ipod on it). I called apple earlier today and some tech support guy claimed that itunes does not support this feature. Is this correct? can anyone out there see artwork modes on an unsynced ipod through itunes?

What determines the address iCal email reminders are sent from?

*What determines the address iCal email reminders +are sent from+?*
On our g4 iMac, running Tiger, my wife has multiple pop3 email accounts. 6 to be exact.
She only has one address listed in her address book, and that is her own main primary address.
She recently started using iCal email reminders for reoccurring events. At first she was getting emails from her main address mailed to her main address. Works as planned.
But recently, she is getting reminders emailed to her main address send from one of her other POP 3 email accounts. This is not desirable. She needs them to come from her main address, the one that is her primary account and is listed in the address book. She is not sure what caused this change or why.
So the question is, what determines the address the email reminder is sent from and how can you change this to another address.
THX

Yes, that's what I thought too.
There is only one address besides the "APPLE" card in her book, and that is her primary address, and unfortunately, NOT the one her reminders are coming from.

What will be the movement type when goods are returned from customers

what will be the movement type when goods are returned from customers

Hello Ravinder,
Please see the following description in the SAP Library
(http://help.sap.com) under the path:
Materials Management (MM)
-> Inventory Management (MM-IM)
    -> Inventory Management and Physical Inventory (MM-IM)
       -> Goods Receipt
          -> Other Goods Receipts
             -> Entering a Customer Return
" Entering a Customer Return
Since returns from the customer are usually examined, the quantity
returned is first posted to blocked stock returns. As is the case with
goods receipt blocked stock, blocked stock returns are neither valuated
nor do they count as unrestricted-use stock.
If an examination proves that the returned quantity should be taken over
into unrestricted-use stock, you enter the transfer to unrestricted-use
stock in a second step. It is at that time that the valuation of the
goods receipt occurs.
Depending on how Customizing for Sales is configured (the movement type
configured in the step Define Schedule Line Category), the delivery is
posted to the following stock:
- Blocked stock returns (non-valuated, not unrestricted-use) (movement
type 651)
- Unrestricted-use stock (movement type 653)
- Quality inspection stock (movement type 655)
- Blocked stock (movement type 657)
If the given quantity is posted to blocked stock returns first, you can
make a manual goods movement posting in the Inventory Management
component to transfer the quantity to valuated stock.
If blocked stock returns are to be transferred into your company's own
stock, you enter the transfer as a transfer posting. Choose movement
type 453 (to unrestricted-use stock), 457 (to stock in quality
inspection stock), or 459 (to blocked stock). "
Hope this helps!
Regards,
Shanthala Kudva.
