  • What is that thing in front of a person's name whe...

    Every time I'm on a group call there's always one person that has this symbol/thing in front of their names. I was just wondering what that is?

    Interesting... my podcast has this strange symbol too (just a square, no X though), since I included the feed on ITMS on August 2005.
    I double-checked my xml file now (that I edit by hand) and I simply could not find anything odd (not even a space).
    You can check the symbol on:
    podcasts --> International --> Brazilian --> Marcos Lacerda - Podcast de Variedades
    And the interesting thing is that it keeps correctly sorted by alphabetical order despite the symbol (it would be great if this could bring mine to the top of the list) :-D

  • /dev/??? - what does that mean?

    Hello,
    What does /dev/??? mean? I have received a strange message:
    su: 'su user1' succeeded for user2 on /dev/???
    What does that thing mean?
    Regards,
    Przemek

    some thing like: /dev/pts/5 ? its a console message alerting you to someone becoming another user. the /dev mentioned is the pseudo terminal this occurred on (this is a telnet or ssh session).

  • Messages has replaced all my text with a load of letter A's in boxes. What is that all about. When I type a new one it is fine until I hit enter then the same thing applies. Has anyone a fix for this?

    Back up all data before proceeding.
    Launch the Font Book application and validate all fonts. You must select the fonts in order to validate them. See the built-in help and this support article for instructions. If Font Book finds any issues, resolve them.
    Start up in safe mode to rebuild the font caches. Restart as usual and test.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or earlier, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t start in safe mode. In that case, ask for instructions.
    If you still have problems, then from the Font Book menu bar, select
              File ▹ Restore Standard Fonts...
    You'll be prompted to confirm, and then to enter your administrator login password.
    Also note that if you deactivate or remove any built-in fonts, for instance by using a third-party font manager, the system may become unstable.

    Try a soft-reset and see if it works after your phone has restarted (it seems ot have fixed the error for a number of people on here) : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the equivalent of a reboot.

  • What is that circle thing in the middle of pictures?

    Just upgraded to CS 5.5 from CS3.
    In InDesign, when I drop a picture in, what is that circle thing in the middle of the image when I move my mouse over it? If I click it, it switches to a direct selection of the image. That is damn annoying. Can I turn that off?
    Also, when I rotate a picture using the Rotate 90° Counter or Rotate 90° Clockwise buttons, it's not rotating from the center. It's rotating on the upper left corner.. if that makes sence. Can I fix that somehow somewhere?

    Easiest way to avoid it is click anywhere else in the box except the circle, takes some getting use to annoyed me the first week or so as well. Not sure if it can be disabled.
    Also, if it's rotating from a point other than center, make sure the center black box is selected on your attributes bar reference points next to the X Y W H selectors, it determines where you rotate from.

  • AE what are those things that turns on and off in the Project

    AE what are those things that turns on and off in the Project

    I had was $1,000 credit in September of 2014.  In October, I called Digital Juice, because I had a stroke 25 years ago and I told him I would be foolish to give up $1,000 and join Platinum Account.  He agreed with me. He then said why don’t you join Platinum Account, and he can update the $1,000 to the account.  I said, OK.  Then about January 2, $1,000 was in the Platinum Account.  I am starting to do some Wedding videos, and I just noticed that the $1,000 credit wasn’t there. What happened to my $1,000?  Oh by the way, your Update Status only goes back to December and not back to July.

  • Just what is that three-bloc​k bar thing?

    I give up. Just what is that little orange bar that appears next to everyone's name? I've figured out that developers or moderators seem to have blue bars instead of orange ones, but the meaning of the three different shades eludes me.
    (And more importantly, why is this piece of information not in the Help FAQ?)

    Here's my understanding of their specific meaning...I remember asking about this when I first got active in the forums, and I was directed to another post (not one I could find from searching)...maybe this one will be easier to find...
    The first bar is message ratings.  Nothing for an average rating below 4.0, "Trusted" for an average between 4.0 and 4.5, and "Proven" for an average between 4.5 and 5.0.
    The second bar is number of replies.  Nothing for less than 50 or 100 or so, "Active" for anything between 50/100 and 2000, and "Enthusiastic" for more than 2000 replies.  To my knowledge, there are only 5 members in the entire forum community who qualify as "Enthusiastic".
    The third bar is number of logins.  I think it's "Member" for less than 50 or so, "Regular" for between 50 and 250 logins, and "Veteran" for more than 250 logins.
    If anybody can confirm/correct my guesses on those last two, feel free.

  • TS1382 I have a ipod classic 160GB and it's not showing any music anymore, but there is still 7GB of memory being used, and I don't have it back up on my itunes, since I had to put a new hard drive on my computer. Any suggestion to find out whats on that

    I have a ipod classic 160GB and it's not showing any music anymore, but there is still showing 7GB of memory being used, and I don't have it backed up on my itunes, since I had to put a new hard drive on my computer. Any suggestion to find out whats on that memory or to get it the music back, there is approximately over 1400 songs on it?

    What is the memory being used by, is it Other? If it is, that means the iPod can no longer read the music, so it has put it all in "Other".
    The usual fix for this is to allow the iPod to Sync with its iTunes Library. If that doesn't work, the next option is to Restore the iPod using the Restore command in iTunes, on the Device/Summary pane.
    Unless you are very (very) lucky, I suspect that you are going to have to Restore your iPod. Restoring will remove everything form the iPod and put back onto it only what it finds in your iTunes Library, which you say is currently empty.
    If you have to rebuild your Library after this issue, by adding all the music back again, this is going to be hard to hear, but for the future, you may want to consider always having a backup of your library. The easiset way to back the Library up is;
    if the Library is small enough, burn it to a DVD, as digital files, not a "music CD".
    If your Library is too large for a DVD, buy yourself an external hard drive and copy the Library onto the drive. Remember to update the backup every so often.

  • What are the things taken care while using multiple suites?

    Hi all,
    I have created a plugin which sends the current file path to an url,
    its working fine with debugging in Visual studio 2005 and while it is added to the Adobe Illustrator its works only once.
    That is its sending the file path only for one file. While i tried for the second time its not working
    I am using following suits in my plugin
    AIDocumentSuite
    AIFilePathSuite
    AIActionManagerSuite
    AIUnicodeStringSuite
    AIURLSuite
    I am using the "AIURLSuite" for calling the url and it is calling the url multiple times while its used alone, and its only working once with the multiple suites.
    What are the things taken care while using multiple suites? , is it neccessary to release all variables and the suites after completing the task?
    Should they released in the same order in which they are acquired?
    Thanks in advance

    i am forcefully saving the document with out checking the modification status!
    Its working fine now!
    Could you please tell me how can we lock a plugin , or a particular function in a plugin.
    There is any specific standard to use the GetDocumentModified function?
    Thanks and Best Regards

  • What are the things we need to take care while moving from 11g to 12c.

    Dear All,
    One of my client having the application running on 11g and now he wants to move it on 12c.
    Now he is asking to me that, what are the things will not work or impacted due to this. Any code level changes, syntax, functions etc are working in 11g and now there is difference or not working in 12c. Could you please help me in this.
    Is there any document for all these thing. I searched on google but not able to find any specific doc.
    Thanks in advance.

    Database in 11g will now act as PDB's in 12c.
    And what makes you say so? What about the changes/fixes done in the optimizer that would alter the plans? What about if the client wants to use in-memory database option? And your statement that database in 11g will now act as PDB in 12c doesn't make any sense. What if the client is not willing to move to multitenancy? What about the scripts that are running in 11g without any issues and suddenly, will break in 12c  due to PDB's ? Do you have any technical reference to validate your claim that there won't be any impact ?

  • What are the things we need to install on client desktop?

    Hi all
    I will need to install Peoplesoft Enterprise. However, for my part I will need to try to install it into serveral clients but connect it to a database. Which means that the main database is not in my com but in another com, is it possible that I can still install in my computer without a database and connect my com to the main com database? And I will also like to know what are the things I will need to install or configure into my computer which has no database. Such as do I need to configure PIA, WebLogic Server and etc. Can anyone please help me. I really need help and assistant in doing it.
    Thanks

    The database has been installed and configured with a given Peopletools version, say 8.52.x. You have to have the same version onto your local machine.
    And since you want only third tier connection, no need to have any database client.
    PIA is a server process to make front end users be able to connection onto the application using their own browser.
    AppServer is a server process allowing people to connect in a 3tier mode, and which manage all the Peoplesoft thingy, exclusively to run on the server to make it available for all.
    Batch Server, same as AppServer, exclusively on server side to make job process running out there. Not on any client.
    Consequently, download the Peopletools (same version as the Peoplesoft database), configure the 3tier connectivity within the Configuration Manager and enjoy PSoft.
