What is the point of Groups in Ovi Contacts

You can add a new Group in Contacts (such as Family), you can then add Contacts to the Group. But then what?
You can't do anything with the Group, not even view it.
Am I missing something here?
Message Edited by julian2b on 27-Apr-2009 09:36 PM

Had the same problem.  I set up groups in outlook as I have over 500 contacts.  Sometime I want to just view the group as I can't remember exactly who I am looking for.  No way to import that kind of group into a Nokia phone.  All the Nokia groups allow you to do is to set up a group email list (at least thats the only way I can use them).

  • What's the point of including "You might contact your administrator if you think this is a mistake" when a post is pulled?

    I understand that the mods here can't possibly reply to everyone who has a post pulled for ToU. One can vaguely try to contact an administrator indirectly, perhaps, by posting here. (When this takes the form of a "why was my post pulled" post, this usually starts a discussion of some kind, which may or may not have any value, but which almost always fails to elicit any direct participation of the Hosts, and gives the impression, at least, it's being completely ignored by them.)   
    Since there is no way of directly contacting an administrator, either for ToU or for any other reason, which this appears to suggest is possible, why not just get rid of it?

    >...although the OP's question still remains....
    I'm now referred to as the OP?
    If you got the email with content for the "final straw" post, which was mine, then you will know what I wrote. I already had one post pulled in that thread for a ToU and I did receive the obligatory email for that. I did not receive an email for the "final straw" post. Just the entire thread got pulled almost immediately at that point.
    Everything I am writing here now is deliberately being veiled and obscured to the limit possible without losing all meaning and just turning this into noise. No one who didn't receive that email content for my post will have any very clear idea what this is all about.
    My "final straw" comments related to several things: some copyright issues concerning the site under discussion; the ToU of that site as, in fact, necessarily prohibiting even the linking of content from that site, and an attempt to differentiate, in general, between what is illegal and what is a violation of the ToU, and not illegal, as such, for any service on any site. I'm not opening all of that up again here, since whatever it was I wrote will probably just get this post pulled.
    All I can say is I attempted assiduously to stay clear of the Apple ToU violation for which I was cited by the Apple email in my earlier post which was pulled -- or any ToU violation, for that matter. I was not discussing Apple's policies, nor was I giving "forbidden" instructions. That the entire thread got pulled has to make me think that straying into those waters -- perhaps, my discussion of copyright issues in regard to the behavior of the other site under consideration, especially, made someone very nervous. Or maybe it was something other than that. But I will never know.
    In any case, "You might contact your administrator if you think...." is genuinely silly, and unless it's somehow ineradicable from the Jive template -- I see now Meg has given that as a possible reason -- I can't see why it shouldn't be removed.

  • OVI maps. What's the point ???

    Just noticed my E63 came with OVI maps and I know the E63 doesn't have AGPS.. so what's the point???

    The point is that it can be used as an interactive map book, that also lets you look up things like points of interest.
    Comes in very useful when visiting large cities for the first time, even without GPS.
    You have to also remember that some people have been using google maps on phones for years for this purpose.  The advantage of OVI maps is that you can actually have the maps on your device so no data connection is needed.

  • What is the Point of Active Directory/LDAP Specification?

    My college threw an interesting curve ball today and I couldn't give him a good enough answer. The question was simple 'What is the point of active directory'. Now I don't have a lot of exposure to active directory, but I thought I could easily answer. My argument was; If you have a group of objects its easy to look up attributes for those objects using active directory. For example, if you have a group in AD and you want to verify the users of that group you simply look up the member attribute of that group. However he argued, rightly so, that you can do that with a table in a database, why do that in AD. I couldn't give him a good enough answer and now I'm curious. Given the above example, why use AD over a database?
    To me AD is a way to manage a set of resources, whatever they are, by mapping them to objects that have however many attributes. But we could do that in a database, whats the point of AD? Why do you use AD?

    I come from a primarily database centric background. Just like life experience, it casts a certain perspective on problems. Database people solve things with databases. Directory people solve things with directories. Everyone has their perspective. It's not really about who's right and who's wrong. It's about perspective because people are most likely to go with what's familiar when given a problem. It's easy to have this conversation in a educational environment but when you're on the job it's about turf, schedules and careers. My latest job (in which this debate comes up a lot) has been about directories which has been a very enlightening experience because I've been given a gift of perspective. I can put on the directory hat and look at it from another angle.
    To get back to your professor's question. The answer is easy. LDAP (AD or other) is an application above a database. It has a data store behind it, in most cases we can just assume this is a database. So, in short, it's apples to oranges. But if we insist on comparing which makes the better juice, let's look at how we'd make a database like a directory. We could create a data model with an attributes table, an entries table and so on. We can deconstruct what LDAP data structures really are and implement each type as a table with FK/PK relationships and so on. It's sure to work because there are already so many products on the market doing this very thing. But think about the effort now. How are you going to add new users? A front-end? Stored procedures? Scripts? How are you going to keep someone from seeing things they shouldn't? You have to insert an object into all the right tables to ensure that your data is consistent and valid. In a pure database, you're trying to create ACLs on database rows. Now you're writing a full featured application with a lot of complexity. Given enough directory features, the database isn't going to be able to do everything without an external application.
    What is the point of LDAP? It's got hierarchy, ACLs, group of unique names functionality and things that are a layer of abstraction above the data store. I love databases but if you start designing out a directory server from scratch you'll realize it's far beyond comparing a user.ldif to a row in a user table. They are similar in appearance but different types of software.

  • What's the point of keyword sets?

    Hi all. My first post here, so watch out - Newbie Alert. I have scoured the forums but can't really find an answer.....
    What's the point of keyword sets?
    I'm a convert to Lightroom from ACDSee. I have been very pleased with Lightroom in general but I'm really struggling with Keywords and Keyword Sets.
    Understand where I'm coming from. I'm not sending my photos to Stock Libraries etc but I want to tag/categorise my photos so that I can find what I want quickly.
    How are people using  Keywords and Keyword Sets?
    A simple example - I have a "family" and some "friends".
    So I created (via the contorted mechanism) a couple of keyword sets. The Family set containes the names of me, my wife and our three sons. Great - no problems. However it turns out that we have more than nine friends. Now I know geeks are often short on real world friends but this seems to be a bit of a limitation.
    On the other hand It might be that I have misunderstood what sets are all about.
    I have found that it is possible to nest keywords. Perhaps that is a better mechanism?
    I have not found a really good tutorial on this - any pointers?
    In comparison to the rest of Lightroom the keyword and keyword set manipulation side seems to be a little clunky. Yes/No?
    Roy

    It's for applying  keywords which are frequently applied as alternatives, and makes use of the keyboard to make the assignment faster - hold down Alt/Opt and hit the number.
    So your family set would be an ideal set. You could set up alternative sets for certain groups of keywords you often assign to a shoot. So for example, I have a weddings one, with groom, bride, etc.

  • I am extremely upset. I purchased my iPad in SA and I am traveling in Greece. When I want to make use of the free apps, I get a message that the app is not available in the SA store. What is the point of having an iPad if you cannot use it worldwide?

    I am extremely upset. I purchased my iPad in SA and now I am in Greece. I cannot download free apps as I get a message that the apps are not available in the SA store and only in US stores. When I change to the US store the same thing happens. What is the point of having an iPad if I cannot use it worldwide??? I feel that I wasted my money purchasing it as I specifically purchased it to use when I travel. How can I get access to all the available apps and why are they restricted.

    You can use your iPad worldwide. However, each AppleID is tied to
    a specific country's store. To use the AppStore in any country, you
    must be in that country and have a credit/debit card issued by a financial
    institution in that country with a verified billing address in that country.
    It is the developer's choice which AppStores he makes his app available
    from, and some countries prohibit certain apps.
    To make a purchase from the US store (including downloading a free app
    available in the US store), you must be in the US and have card issued
    in the US with verified billing address in the US.
    You can use your purchases from the SA store worldwide, but you
    cannot make purchases in other than the SA store unless you meet
    the aforesaid conditions.

  • What is the point of the download window if you use stacks?

    Greetings,
    One of the most annoying things about the download window was the fact that the window always hung around after completing dowloads in Tiger when using safari. To me, that was just a time waster of always pressing Apple+W to close that window.
    When Leopard was released, I was excited to realize that one function of the download stack was to recevie downloads from safari after completed. However, after completion, the download window still sticks around and I still have to close it... then navigate to my stack of downloads to mount the image. What is the point of the download window is I use stacks now? Why can't the window disappear after completion?
    //Cheers

    Aaargh!! Me too - it's so annoying! Firefox has a downloads window as well - I just don't see the point of it. I didn't like it in Tiger either.
    As a way to see the progress of downloads, it's fine, but it should at least close when all the downloads are finished, and completed downloads should not display.
    Ideally it should look & work exactly like the Copy window in Finder - the one that comes up when you are copying or moving a large file or number of files from one folder to another.
    Is there a hack that will make it work like that?

    Hello Pushtheriver,
    After reviewing your post, I have located an article that can help in this situation. It contains a number of troubleshooting steps and helpful advice concerning iCloud storage issues:
    Get help using iCloud storage
    This may also help:
    Understanding iOS device capacity
    You can sync and download many different types of content on your device. Some types of content (such as music and videos) typically take more space than others (such as notes and books). The amount of space taken by an app depends on the app's purpose; complex or graphically intense apps usually take more space than simpler apps.
    If your device is near its capacity, you can remove some of the less used content to make room for more.
    Thank you for contributing to Apple Support Communities.

  • What's the point of warranty?

    I am a student coming from Hong Kong  to London for postgraduate study. Before I left Hong Kong, I decided to buy a netbook for my lecturers in the UK. Lenovo s10-2 was chosen because the version available in HK comes with 6 cell battery with international warranty and Lenovo Protection Service (against accidental damage).
    This is the first Lenovo machine for me. All was well and I was starting to appreciate Lenovo. Suddenly, the LED screen started to flick with white lines moving across the it, just two weeks after I bought it from Hong Kong.
    Yesterday, I called the UK support line who initially suggested replacement (because the purchase is last than 30-day old). However, when the agent found out that I bought the machine in Hong Kong, he said I could only get it repairs. Fair enough.
    I packed the netbook this afternoon ready to ship it to the repair center. Being not sure about whether or not my proof of purchase was needed, I called the support line again. This time, the agent gave me a "friendly warning" or maybe a management of my expectations.
    I was told that Lenovo believes that there is a 99.5% chance that these type of problems are due to “internal damages" caused by users! I was also advised that sending the machine in for repairs risk myself getting into paying 230 pounds (pretty much the purchase cost) to get the LED screen fixed because it is likely to be not covered by warranty. On top of that, I would have to pay 65 pounds even if I want my netbook back after inspection without getting fixed because again, 99.5% chance that "damages by users" would be concluded!
    What's the point of warranty? Totally unacceptable. Any thoughts? Should I take the risk?
    I only got the machine just over two weeks ago and used for less than 10 times!

    seblee,
    This bears a bit of looking into to provide you the best answer.   Sometimes, the accidental damage policies are only valid in the home country, and I would like to check.  If that were to be the case, you would have replacement or repair options in HK, but standard warranty terms would likely apply in UK.
    Your situation sounds exceptional, and I'd like to look into this and see what can be done.
    Can your send me a private message with your contact information and the serial number from the bottom of the unit?
    Sorry that you are having this trouble.  Will see how we can help.

    0Did you ever have a business scenario where a Numerical column should store values only with a fixed precision and scale ?Lots of business requirements for specific precisions and scales.
    A persons Age may required to be stored as whole numbers of no more than 3 digits.
    A sum of money may required to be stored with no more than 2 decimal places of accuracy e.g. GB Pounds and Pence or US Dollars and Cents
    A unit of length may required to be stored in metres with 2 decimal places for centimetres
    A shoe size may be required to be stored with one decimal place for half sizes
    etc.
    etc.
    Yes, you may just create all of them as generic NUMBER datatype, but creating them with precision and scale can provide additional information about the limitations expected for the values stored, especially for things like reporting tools that may use the specified precision and scale to determine how to display the values automatically (by default).
    If you start questioning "what's the point?" then you may as well say what's the point in having a NUMBER datatype when we can store numbers in a VARCHAR2 datatype? or what's the point in having a DATE datatype when we can stored dates as VARCHAR2 datatype? etc.
    No point in asking such a question because there's almost always a point to these things (and if there isn't they get deprecated in later versions).

  • What is the point of having indented levels in course outlines?

    What is the point of having indented levels in course outlines? It's not possible to add any materials or posts to this. I want to avoid having simply a long list of topics that are difficult to manage. When I create a topic in the outline, I can indent it, but then I can't add any posts to it as it doesn't even show up as a heading in course manager.
    I've been trying to have some kind of logical organisation of materials, but the only thing you seem to be able to do is have a long list of topics.
    Which makes me wonder why the possibility of indenting levels is there at all - it seems to be a completely worthless item.

    I guess the point of the indented lists is to provide the user with some description of the topic’s contents. It's a standard convention in the table of contents of books. It might pay to break your course down into a number of courses if the list of topics is getting too unwieldy.

  • JWSDP and J2EE Integration: Doesn't work. What's the point?

    My problems involve the integration of JWSDP and J2EE as described in these two documents:
    http://developer.java.sun.com/developer/technicalArticles/WebServices/wsj2ee/
    http://java.sun.com/j2ee/documentation/windows_guide.html
    It looks like a long one, but it�s really not that bad. All comments are appreciated.
    I�ve numbered each line-paragraph-section for easy reference later.
    (1) My ultimate goal is to setup a website that displays data from a database. I will use Java, Apache, Oracle, and whatever else I need to create a website that uses servlets, JavaServer Pages (JSP), and JDBC.
    (2) I�ve got four Pentium III computers:
    1. Windows 2000 Server to be the web server (MyWebServer, IP = 10.10.1.1).
    2. Windows 2000 Professional to be the database server (MyDatabaseServer, IP = 10.10.1.2).
    3. Windows 2000 Professional that I use to develop and test (MyDeveloperPC, IP = 10.10.1.3).
    4. Windows 2000 Professional that I use as a client to connect to the website (MyClientPC, IP = 10.10.1.4).
    (3) On MyWebServer I installed the following:
    Java 2 Standard Edition (J2SE)
    Java 2 Enterprise Edition (J2EE)
    Java Web Services Developer Pack (JWSDP)
    The JWSDP tutorial
    Apache HTTP Server
    (4) The files I downloaded and installed are as follows:
    j2sdk-1_4_0-rc-win.exe
    j2sdkee-1_3_1-win.exe
    jwsdp-1_0-ea1-win.exe
    jwsdp-1_0-ea1_01-tutorial.zip
    apache_1.3.23-win32-x86-no_src.exe
    (5) After installing these products, I set the environment variables as follows:
    JAVA_HOME = c:\j2se
    J2EE_HOME = c:\j2ee
    JWSDP_HOME = c:\jwsdp
    Path = c:\j2se\bin;c:\j2ee\bin;c:\jwsdp\bin; [and other previous statements]
    (6) I checked to see that Apache is running as a service. It is.
    On MyWebServer I start Tomcat and J2EE. Both start properly and are operating simultaneously.
    (7) From MyClientPC I open Internet Explorer and in the address box I type:
    http://10.10.1.1
    This displays the page c:\ApacheHTTP\apache\htdocs\index.html.en (The Apache default server installation page.)
    (8) I then enter this address in IE:
    http://10.10.1.1:8080
    This displays the page c:\jwsdp\webapps\root\index.html (The default JWSDP page).
    (9) I then enter this address in IE:
    http://10.10.1.1:8000
    This displays the page c:\j2ee\public_html\index.html (The J2EE 1.3 Default Home Page).
    (10) So far so good. Now I want to test JWSDP as a container for JSP pages.
    (11) I use ant to build the converter app found in the tutorial examples (in folder c:\jwsdp\�\tutorial\examples\gs). I then deploy the converter app to the c:\jwsdp\webapps\gs folder.
    (12) From MyClientPC I open Internet Explorer and in the address box I type:
    http://10.10.1.1:8080/gs
    The converter app works perfectly.
    (13) To eliminate the need to enter the port number, I create a link from the Apache default server installation page to the converter app. From MyClientPC and enter this address into IE:
    http://10.10.1.1
    I then click on the link to the converter app and it works perfectly.
    (14) Question: Is this the best way to display JSP pages without having to enter the port number?
    (15) Now it�s time to integrate JWSDP and J2EE as described in these two documents:
    http://developer.java.sun.com/developer/technicalArticles/WebServices/wsj2ee/
    http://java.sun.com/j2ee/documentation/windows_guide.html
    (16) After I complete this integration I cannot start both Tomcat and J2EE at the same time. This makes sense because they both share port 8080.
    I start Tomcat.
    (17) From MyClientPC and use Internet Explorer to test the various relevant addresses. Everything works the same as it did before except this one:
    http://10.10.1.1:8000
    The page cannot be displayed. The J2EE default home page is not displayed, which makes sense because the J2EE port is no longer 8000; it has been changed to 8080.
    (18) Now I shutdown Tomcat and start J2EE.
    From MyClientPC and use Internet Explorer to test the various relevant addresses:
    (19) http://10.10.1.1:8080
    Displays the JWSDP default home page.
    (20) http://10.10.1.1:8080/gs
    The page cannot be displayed. The converter app no longer works.
    (21) From MyWebServer and use Internet Explorer to test localhost:
    http://localhost:8080
    This displays the J2EE default home page.
    (22) Question: Why does localhost give me a different page than the IP address?
    (23) Question: What was the point of integrating JWSDP and J2EE?
    (24) I want to get the converter app working, so I create a .war file and attempt to add it to the J2EE deploytool (see the two integration documents listed above at section 15.) I create the .war file following the instructions in the JWSDP tutorial:
    http://java.sun.com/webservices/docs/ea1/tutorial/doc/WebApp3.html#64606
    (25) I change to the c:\jwsdp\�\tutorial\examples\gs\build folder.
    I then type:
    jar cvf converter.war .
    A .war file is created.
    (26) I open the deploytool: File, New, Application, and I name it �converter�.
    I attempt to add the .war file: File, Add to Application, Web WAR.
    (27) When I attempt to add the converter.war file I get this error:
    �converter.war does not appear to be a valid web JAR.�
    I tried a few different attempts, all with the same result. I�m stuck.
    (28) I ask again, What was the point of integrating JWSDP and J2EE?
    (29) If this is the preferred configuration, how do I display my JSP pages like the converter app?
    Please help!!!

    The JWSDP tutorial says to be in the �build� folder of the example when issuing the jar command to create the .war file. The build folder is created when I run the �ant build� command.
    Attempt 1 from the command prompt in folder c:\jwsdp\tutorial\examples\gs\build>
    I typed this command:
    jar cvf c:\jaxmservices\converter.war .
    In this case I directed the .war file to be placed in a different folder as you suggested. Here�s the output:
    added manifest
    adding: index.jsp(in = 921) (out= 525)(deflated 42%)
    adding: WEB-INF/(in = 0) (out= 0)(stored 0%)
    adding: WEB-INF/classes/(in = 0) (out= 0)(stored 0%)
    adding: WEB-INF/classes/Converter.class(in = 582) (out= 358)(deflated 38%)
    Didn�t work. Same error as before.
    Attempt 2 from the same folder:
    I typed this command as you suggested (I tried it with and without the final dot):
    jar tvf converter.war
    Here is the output:
    java.io.FileNotFoundException: converter.war (The system cannot find the file specified)
    at java.io.FileInputStream.open(Native Method)
    at java.io.FileInputStream.<init>(FileInputStream.java:103)

    at sun.tools.jar.Main.run(Main.java:185)
    at sun.tools.jar.Main.main(Main.java:904)
    I tried a few other variations on these attempts with no luck. I�m stuck.
    I�m attempting to create a .war file out of two files: index.jsp and converter.class.
    Now that I�ve integrated JWSDP and J2EE, is there some other way that I can run the converter app instead of a .war file and the deploytool? In other words, if I go back to using ant to build and deploy converter, where would I deploy it so that it will work with J2EE?
    By the way, it doesn�t have to be converter. I�d be happy if I could get any JSP page to work in J2EE after the integration.
    Forever grateful,
    Logan

  • Backed up ipod to the cloud (12/25 11am) and then updated. Music is gone and the back up is not restoring?! why? What's the point of the cloud if nothing is there?

    Ipod has been playing music in my car the past two years. new computer this year and new email address. Backed up to cloud. change ID on itunes. Music on my ipod disappeared. Shouldn't it be on the cloud somewhere?! What's the point of this cloud? And is it b/c I can't seem to change my icloud ID to the new one on my ipod settings?

    Music is not stored in your personal iCloud account, or in your device backup.  Music purchased from the iTunes store is in available for redownload as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519.  Music from other sources such as your CDs should be in your iTunes library on your computer and can be synced back to your iPod from there.
    To change the iCloud account on your device you have to delete the exsting account, then sign back into the new ID.

  • What's the point in buying a new MacBook?

    Hi all,
    Recently I went with my iBook G4 to the Apple store to troubleshoot a small problem, but they were unable to help me as after only 7 years, the machine was rendered obsolete and they didn't feel obliged to help. My iBook recently died and I felt like a part of me was missing.
    So my question is, what is the point of buying myself a brand new MacBook Pro if in 5 or 6 years, it will be obsolete? I want a Mac that will last me wherever I go for a long time before it finally dies. I've realized that I need to put PowerPC computers out of the question, but will intel processer Macs last longer than PowerPC processors?
    For the record, I don't want to switch to Microsoft as I find them difficult and this isn't a crack at Apple.
    Any answers are very appreciated,
    Thomas.

    With Intel based Macs the hardware will not become obsolete as fast as PPC based Macs did, but the operating system and/or applications used might.
    That does not mean that it will stop working, just that you won't, in a few years' time, be able to get the latest bells and whistles.
    Officially, support from Apple ceases after seven years - but that does not stop the Macs working!
    Vintage and obsolete Apple products:
    Obsolete products are those that were discontinued more than seven years ago. Apple has discontinued all hardware service for obsolete products with no exceptions. Service providers cannot order parts for obsolete products. These include ALL G4 and G5 models.
