Warren Massey -
Unfortunately, we were not able to migrate the polls and topics to the new system when we launched. The good news is that we still have access to the data and are investigating our migration options available.
We will also focus on getting some new topics and polls out to the community in the next few weeks.

What happen to julius thread in ABAP DEVELOPMENT?

It was reformatted by the new 5000 characters per post limit
I am busy working on a solution to split them and move each part to its own respecting sub-development forum - but have not got to it yet. Sorry for being slow.
The FAQ and memorable discussions thread in the Security Forum is affected as well, but there is only one forum... :-((
Any creating ideas on how to fix that one (other than removing information from it)?
Cheers,
Julius

Actually it is happening since couple of week. Might be you have found yourself in this situation now.
Also there are two thread already open on the same. Perhaps you missed them.
Improper display of threads
And outstandingly "what happen to julius thread in ABAP DEVELOPMENT?" Nice Subject Line
Perhaps, It looks [Line of the day|Re: Line of the day!] !!
P.S. Subject tempered (Or Perhaps corrected)....;-)
Anyways,
@ Julius: Since there is 5000 Characters Limit has been introduced for keeping the forum neat, undersized and informative as much as possible rather than long bulky programs.
But My Question is What about the Programs and Threads which had already been posted in last 5-6 Years of SDN(now SCN)?
I can see all the previous threads also have been affected!
So Does SAP having any Programmer In their team of Michael Goeck or David Branan(Who is working from behind the scene ) to introduced the restriction of 5K chars based on Date?!?

I am running OSX Lion 10.7.4 and the computer no longer will go into sleep mode when I close the cover What happened with this option?

I am running OSX Lion 10.78.4 and the computer will no longer go into sleep mode when I close the cover. In system preferences I can no longer find the option that allows for this energy saving feature. What happened to this option and why is this no longer happening with the latest version of Lion?

No external monitors or devices attached. When you mention that this function only works when devices are attached that is true when you set up your preferences that way. Up until my upgrade to Lion the computer would always go into sleep mode when I closed the lid. There also used to be an option to check in system preferences that allowed you to choose this option. My question for the discussion is what happened to that option and how do you get the computer to sleep or at least the display to sleep when you close the lid as we have been able to do in the past. Thanks.

The PWR MGMT LED on the front panel of the sup720 is off. What happen with this?

The PWR MGMT LED on the front panel of the standby sup720 is off (But the active engine is on). We check the switch guide which states "The SYSTEM and PWR MGMT LEDs on a redundant supervisor engine or RSP are synchronized to the active module.". What happen with this? Thanks!

HI @bingxiong.feng,
This is not a cause for concern as Cisco says in the following link:

I HAVE A KEYBOARD COVER AND IF I NEED TO USE CERTAIN KEYS I HAVE TO SWITCH TO MY KEYBOARD CASE AND THAT IS VERY INCONVENIENT.
IT IS ALSO A TIME WASTER.
When you installed iOS 8 did you read about the new features? Applications can create custom keyboards…

You need to look for an app that has a custom keyboard with the features you require, I suggest you find one without CAPSLOCK

Again you need to look at how to manage the device - these settings can be turned off already & you can edit the 'suggestions' too.

Sadly you cannot disable autocorrect temporarily, so it's all or nothing.

Any idea what happened in this crash and if my MacBook needs work?

A friend of mine suggested that I post the crash report here to see if anyone knows what happened and whether I need to do anything. I would go to a Genius Bar, but the nearest Apple Store to me is 3 hours away
Here's what happened:
I was working in Firefox when the computer screen suddenly went completely black without warning or any sounds. I tiled the monitor forward slightly and the screen came back up for an instant before a partly opaque gray curtain fell from the top of the screen to the bottom. Then a message showed up on the far left - the box was half off the screen - saying I needed to shut down my computer. I did. I waited a few minutes and powered it on. The screen was gray with tiny gray horizontal pinstripes for a while with the apple logo (also crossed with the pinstripes) while it was booting up. However, it never fully booted up. I had to shut it down again. I booted it as a target drive with another computer to copy over important documents. Then, I ejected it and shut it down. Then I powered it on, and this crash report showed up after it booted up.
And below is the crash report.

Are you seriously telling us that one person can destroy the interface of these forums? This is serious stuff because it should never happen to the entire thread.

Import from catalog: what happens to this catalog ?

Hello everyone!
I follow Scott Kelbys LR3 book for transferring my work from my studio laptop to my main processing computer in my office using the EXPORT TO CATALOG technique.
So then I transfer the folder to where I keep my LR pictures in MY COMPUTER. Then I IMPORT AS Catalog into LR.
QUESTION: What happens to the LRcat and LRdata file I imported afterwards? Are they copied or otherwise incorporated into my MAIN LRcat or is it safe to DELETE the imported LRCAT & LRDATA files because they are now part of the MAIN catalog?
I hope this is clear... Thanks!

I'm almost certain you can delete the catalog you imported from. But to be sure, you could create an exported catalog with one image in it, import it into your main catalog, then delete the one you imported from and see what happens.

When I bought my iPad there was a feature that allowed me to voice record reminders. What happened to this feature. With all the updates, it is now gone.

When I bought my ipad 2 a few years ago there was a feature so that I could record reminders. But with all the updates, this feature is now gone. What happened to it? Also, on my iphone and imac, I can dictate and it types for me. I thought I had this feature on the ipad too, but can't find it. Does it not exist for the ipad 2 or do I have to download an app?

Your Mac will need internet connection : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5449
For your iPad there is Dragon Dictation which might work (I haven't tried it)

What happens during this 'stabilisation' phase?

Engineers say that you need to wait 48hrs/7days/10days for it to stablise.
Why? What actually happens in this period?
Is this designed to appease us that our connections could get quicker after the engineer has left so we're not annoyed with the lacklustre speeds?

Well its a stabilisation period.
If they put you straight on the highest line possible it would potential be unstable so they will take it down bit by bit to get to a point where it doesn't keep falling over over thos 10 days.
I only say this as we have our VOIP at the office going over a BT broadband line and it kept dropping so they reduced the line to make it more stable.

Faulty display or connections with display, what happened to this topic?

Faulty screens, the bottom 2 1/2 inches of my 15" aluminum powerbook screen is gone. Ghosty, white, black or liney. Mine went bad 2 months out of warranty.
With 2,234 views and 71 posts, the topic about faulty 15”Aluminum Screens has been closed. No more posts allowed. (this is after the first forum thread was closed some months ago) Does this mean someone at Apple is actually looking at this manuracturer defect? Or does it mean the problem is too popular. I really hate feeling the same thing about the Bush administration as I now am suspecting I should feel about Apple and Steve Jobs.
The 15” and the 17” powerbook manufactured in China in the first part of 2005 have faulty screens. Look to the second page of the posts here and you will find all the complaints, as well as in the 17" forums. There is a “volunteer” named "a brody" who is trying to tell us that there is no proof that we have a manufacturer problem. The one true thing he says is that we all have to call in to Apple to register our complaints. And I say, write to Steve Jobs, directly. Tell him what you think.
We all have the same problem that started a few months out of warranty. For information on your screen: click in System Prefrences, Displays, Color, Open Profile, then scroll down to Apple Display make and model information:
Manufacturer 00000610
Model 00009C20
Serial # all zeros
Manufacture Date B87B9680
I have never purchased the extended warranty because it has always been a joke. Hardware in the past, has always been so good. With outsourcing comes problems apparently.
The update on my computer's screen problem is that now when I press on the left side of the screen, I can’t see anything below 2 1/2 inches. Pressing on the screen no longer makes the bottom of the screen visible. Gone. This is very sad for Apple. Me too, because I spent a lot on my Mac that I would not have, had I not trusted Apple products. I have used and trusted Macs for years.
I have always thought of Apple as a company that respected the people who delighted in their products. Their customers are people who paid triple for a far superior product. I am now disgusted with the kind of care I have received after buying a clearly faulty product, and after being a loyal customer for 20 years.
Please, some justice here,
Sherry

I did call Apple and got a case number when the screen problem started happening 2 months out of warranty.
I am in my 50]s and have always purchased Apple computers - except for the very first one that was a prehistoric Tandy. I have never purchased Applecare. It seemed a waste of money and a joke (I should clarify here my earlier post. I was not intending to say anything negative about Applecare but something positive about Apple because, in my past experience, it has been completely unnecessary for me to purchase the extended warranty. I had confidence in the Apple name, confidence that the hardware would last at least a couple or three years, and confidant that I would be wasting my money if I purchased it). My old Performa and my old Wallstreet still boot up and work just fine - tho of course too outdated to use for most practical purposes.
People who have posted the manufacturer information all have an aluminum 15” 1.67 gh manufactured by the same company, same date, same model number. The 12” and 17” have a different looking problem, but still a similar problem with the screen - same manufacturer, same date. Is it common for so many people to be complaining about the same problem so close to the end of the warranty period? The White Spot (boy I would love to have that white spot instead), the batteries, power supply in the G5 desktop, to name a few - all got the extension program.
It cannot be hard to imagine that consumers could be upset when they purchase a top of the line machine, and have it go bad right out of warranty. My Wallstreet lasted 6 years before it developed an easily fixable hinge problem, and it traveled a lot. My G4 mainly stays at home and is treated with kid gloves.
Thank you for your suggestion about calling Apple again and checking to see if they are looking into these problems. They have heard from many more people since I talked to them last.
Would you please let me know what the “A103 on the back” is that you are referring to? I am curious if your screen has the same info listed on my first post in this topic. If so, you are one of the lucky ones.
Thank you.

What Happened to my Thread???

I posted a question a few days ago, and it was replied to 5 times. Today I look, and the question is there but there are NO replies...ZERO, Zilch, Nada. The thread is GONE. 2 replies were from a forum member who was trying to help me, and 3 were answers and addtional info added by me. I really need help with this, but if the Forum Moderator, or whoever it is, just wipes pieces of threads like that, I'm not very well served by this "service". And I've looked all over the site to find an email address or a phone number so I can contact someone. Anyone have any ideas why this happened?

Thanks, but I´m not sure that will fix whatever the real problem is. I did try to boot from the OSX cd earlier today, after disconnecting both HDs, just to see if there were some corrupted remnants of hidden files from the earlier install that I trashed. No go - same deal with spinning wheel to prohib sign - so it appears the drives aren´t the problem. I´m still thinking one of the processors is gone, do you know of anyway to check that in OS9? Thanks, G.

What happened to the thread?

Why did the topic "Copy/Paste and Everything Wrong + 3 great moves" get deleted?
I believe the topic raised some very reasonable concerns and suggestions about how to make the iPhone more viable in the corporate environment.
One poster suggested Apple really listens to user suggestions. However the disappearance of that thread might suggest Apple might be stifling, rather than listening to any constructive criticism of the product.
Why has that thread been removed?

f this forum is intended as a forum for Apple users, why would Apple censor it, when there was no offensive or derogatory comments posted in the thread in question?
Because it violated the TOU.
From the TOU:
Stay on topic. Apple Discussions is here to help people use Apple products and technologies more effectively. Unless otherwise noted, do not add Submissions about nontechnical topics, including:
1. Speculations or rumors about unannounced products.
2. Discussions of Apple policies or procedures or speculation on Apple decisions.
From what I have observed, feature requests are considered speculation by the Hosts. You are describing something you would like to see in a future release of a hardware or software product, and not asking for or offering help about how to use an existing product. More importantly, the users on this forum can't help you with your request, because they are not Apple employees and have no ability to change the product in question. Those few Apple employees who might read your post are not permitted to discuss any future release, and are equally unable to help you.
Quite simply, Apple Discussions are not the place for feature requests or speculation about future releases of software or hardware. A thread that is started with the intention of discussing such speculation will usually be deleted. If discussion of features - or their lack - arises in a proper thread (Ex: "How do I do this?" ans: "You can't, because..." or ans: "You can't, but here's a work around.") then the post is usually permitted to stand. Polling is also against the TOU, so starting a topic like "I wish (xx) had (this feature), what do you think?" is a double violation. (I didn't see your thread, I'm just describing a type of thread I often see getting deleted.) Apple feedback is the appropriate place to make feature requests. You can also find non-Apple managed rumor sites where this kind of speculation is encouraged.
The purpose of Apple Discussions is to find (and offer) support using the product that you have, not for describing the product that you wish you had. Before posting, consider how likely the users here will be to answer and solve your question (or to benefit from your non-question topic). That's a good rule of thumb that can help you avoid having your topics removed.
Regards.

What Happened to the thread about problems

I was getting all sort of emails about the thread:
"iTunes 7 Little list of Problems (add here yours)" in the Apple Discussions forum "Using iTunes for Mac"
and now when I try to access it it says I don't have permission...what's going on here APPLE!

I agree with durhamnboy in that I think that a relevant discussion about these bugs is a constructive thing, as long as someone with influence was reading it that is
Whether this forum is the place to do it is another question - but I instinctively came here first to see what others thought of the new iTunes, so I imagine its the place where most other knowledgable users come. However its Apple's decision as to what is relevant, so there's no point arguing with it I suppose...
As a software developer myself, I would be happy to see a list of any bugs that we'd missed as a team, especially important in consumer-grade stuff I feel. I'm sure Apple's developers aren't stupid, so will be disappointed to have missed some of these things. Fingers crossed
