What's up with forums registration?

Recently I have been asked to sign in again when visiting these forums.
The thingummy asks me to enter my e-mail address and password (neither of which have changed at my end). If I follow that Forums is Migrating rigmarole I get repeated error messages that Adobe ID and password don't match. Can anyone tell me what's going on? And what ("perzackly") is an Adobe ID? When I go to "Forgot your ID?" I get a row of 7 letters and digits but entering that as either an ID or a password doesn't help.
I can usually sign in the old way, but that Forums is Migrating thing beats me. What's the trick?

Just got this e-mail from Adobe Systems:
Hello,
As you may have already heard, there are changes coming soon to the Adobe User to User Forums. In response to community feedback, we are incorporating many user-requested features into Adobe Forums and also making changes to the underlying technology to improve the overall user experience.
As a valued contributor who has posted messages previously in the Adobe Forums, we are kindly asking you to please log into your forums account and then follow the prompts to migrate your account. It only takes a few minutes, and by completing this process, your messages will be brought forward into the new system as part of your account history.
Once the existing forums have been converted to the new system, you will no longer be able to migrate your old User to User Forums account. Even though this process is optional, we encourage you to migrate your account so that your authoring history and message count will be accurate.
To complete this short migration process, please log into your account using your current User to User Forums account and password. During this process, you will be asked to create a new Adobe ID or sign in with an Adobe ID if you already have one. This Adobe ID will be used to sign in once the new Adobe Forums are live in April 2009.
We are also inviting all of our users to preview the new Adobe Forums. Please note that this is a preview area only and any new content posted there will be deleted when the new system comes online in April.
Thank you!

Problem with forum registration

When you choose your "desired alias" if you enter a name that is already taken it doesn't tell you or give you an error message, it just takes you back once you press submit and the field is empty.
Problem found on OS X 10.4.11 using Firefox 3.0.1

jcuthbert,
Thank you, this is something that we are aware of and are looking at ways to resolve it.

waller, thanks for your reply.

i regret that i felt forced to try something here.
the screen name here is not my screen name but part of my personal information.

What's wrong with this Forum? Why does Adobe take so long to reply to posts?!

What's wrong with this Forum? Why does Adobe take so long to reply to posts?!
This is actually "specific" to this Photoshop Forum.
I typically get responses back from other Adobe forum promptly.
Chime in.

The Adobe engineering folks DO duck in here from time to time - and that's a BLESSING! Please name any other big company where you get to interact with the engineers AT ALL. I can't. But I suspect the engineers actually have a lot oof real work to do, and their time here is necessarily limited.
Your comments are more along the line of "I pay a huge amount, for that I expect better support". These are very valid comments. But reality is different from what we may expect, and this forum is not the place to expect Adobe support participation AT ALL. In fact, the technical support people at Adobe often direct users to come here (something I've always found amusing).
At the higher level, Adobe may simply not be spending enough on support for literally millions of users. Is is greed or smart business to try to minimize support cost? That's up for individuals to decide.
I suggest you write a snail-mail letter to the Adobe president if you're not getting the support you need.

Forum registration captcha

Hi!
I think the forum registration captcha ("For which Linux distribution is this forum?") should accept either "Arch", "Arch Linux" and "Archlinux" as correct replies. It took me several minutes of uselessly twiddling with my browser settings before I hit on trying to spell it the latter way.
At least I think that's what finally got me registered. Please pardon me if I am wrong.

Toshiba forum registration issues

Had quite a few problems when I tried to register for Toshiba forums:
1) Which forum - forums.toshiba.com seems to be completely separate registration from forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com - you can't use ID from toshiba.com on toshiba-europe.com?
2) Went through complete registration at toshiba-europe.com then it wouldn't let me login.
So I tried the "forgotten password" option and it say's my ID is not recognised.
Then I tried re-registering and it says the ID is already taken
It can't be both not recognised and already taken - surely??
Simon

You are right about forums.
This forum is European Toshiba Forum and other one is US Toshiba forum. You cannot login with the same account. US forum is separate forum and there you can discuss with people about models offered on US or Canadian market.
I dont know what is wrong with login and cannot help you with it but if a registration is completed login should not be problematic. In worst case simply create new account.

Possible bug with the registration verification code, some follow up

About this post I made earily,
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=187286
> I ran into this problem several times before.
I mean that I finally made a successful registration after dozens of trying
in the last two or three years time span.
I just don't know what went wrong, and never get around to search for the solution.
Luckily I figure it out today.
And I rushed in to report it, hoping it will be fixed,
And no more people will be put off by this again.
After some search, I see I am not alone:

It seams that Time Zone and DST are causing a bigger problem than it should be.
May be a not time-related Registration Captcha will server us better.

Scimmia wrote:If you have your timezones set up correctly, this shouldn't be an issue at all.
I don't know if it has been fixed, but when I tried to register 2 years ago, it continuously failed, even though I was quite sure I had entered everything correctly. On a whim, I decided to check the box that said daylight savings time is in effect. When I did that, my registration went through. So while "shouldn't be an issue" is technically true, it was an issue for me. I had to provide incorrect information in order to successfully register, and I only managed to do so by grasping at straws.
For the record, daylight savings time is never in effect in Hawaii.

C# - What's wrong with a table called JOBS? :(

Post Author: Gee
CA Forum: .NET
Hi
I've just moved up to .NET 2005. and am having a big problem right now with one report in particular.
The report uses an Oracle table called "JOBS". It worked just fine in .NET 2003. Now though, it comes up with the dreaded field name not known error.
So, I tried to just do a completely new report with just ONE field from the JOBS table on it. It doesn't want to know!
I then copied (so it was IDENTICAL) the table structure and data to a new one called "JOBSTEST". The simple report worked (once I'd changed it to use the JOBSTEST fields of course)
I deleted the original JOBS table, copied a new JOBS table from the JOBSTEST table and... it didn't work again!
So, what's wrong with having a table called "JOBS"? Because that seems to be the problem!
Oh... it works ok on the development machine. Just not any other. ALL other reports work fine!
Thank you so much for your time in helping me

I need help figuring out what is wrong with my Macbook Pro

I have a mid 2012 Macbook Pro with OS X Mavericks on it and for the past few weeks it has running VERY SLOW! I have no idea what is wrong with it, i have read other discussion forums trying to figure it out on my own. So far i have had no luck in fixing the slowness. When i open applications the icon will bounce in dock forever before opening and then my computer will freeze with the little rainbow wheel circling and circling for a few minutes... and if i try to browse websites it take forever for them to load or youtube will just stop working for me. Everything i do, no matter what i click, the rainbow wheel will pop up! The only thing i can think of messing it up was a friend of mine plugging in a flash drive a few weeks ago to take some videos and imovie to put on his Macbook Pro, he has said his laptop has been running fine though... so idk if that was the problem. Anyways, could someone please help me try something? Thank you!!

What is wrong with my XPath Query ??

Hi Guys,
please help me to solve the following problem. Trying to execute :
XPathAPI.selectNodeList(MyNode,"//*[starts-with()='WType']")
throws always an exception :
javax.xml.transform.TransformerException: FuncStartsWith only allows 2 arguments
What doesn't that mean ? What's wrong with my query ?

According to my XSLT book, the starts-with() function requires 2 arguments. You haven't given it any arguments, and that seems to be exactly what the error message is telling you. And it returns a boolean, so comparing that with a string isn't going to work either.
I suggest you will find Mulberry's xsl-list a better place to ask questions about XSLT than a Java forum. You can find it here:

What is wrong with my monitor photo attached

i just got a macbook pro yesterday and when i was using all of a sudden this came on the screen, and i just restarted it and it was gone. today i turn it on and this happens again. what is wrong with it.

I view the forum on a 30" display. But no matter how wide the window is, your picture shows with the right side truncated and a scroll bar. It never occurred to me that I needed to scroll to the right to see what the problem was.
You have a serious Hardware problem, and the graphics hardware is not a separately-replaceable card.
Take it back. If within the 14-day period, they will just trade for a new one. If after that, they will sometimes just trade for a new one, but THEY make the decision of whether to repair instead.
If they exchange, the genius Bar can help you copy your files, but it is always better if you have your own Backups before you go.

When logging on to Hotmail, a window opens asking me "What to do with this file" for "default.aspx"

This morning, I am unable to log in to Hotmail. The homepage appears normally, but after I enter my email address and password and click to submit them, a window pops us asking me what to do with the file "default.aspx." I have a Vista machine, and last night my computer automatically installed a ton of Microsoft updates. In fact, the update list shows that one of the updates failed to install. At the end of this message, I have pasted the details of the failed update. I have checked the Hotmail support forum, and someone else posted that the have experienced the same problem this morning. The Microsoft "expert" asked him or her to contact Mozilla for support for this issue. Thanks in advance for whatever help you can provide, although I highly suspect that this is a problem on the Microsoft/Hotmail end, not yours.
Here is the info on the failed software update from last night...

Hotmail is rolling out a server change at their end which might be causing this problem. Mozilla has spoken to them about it and they are trying to fix it. I won't be able to provide you a time estimate by when it will be solved but hotmail/mozilla is certainly looking at this issue.
I will let you know if get any updates!

What's wrong with my code for comparing date retreived from db and sysdate?

Hi all,
I need to retrive date from the DB and compare it to system date.i have posted the code below.i get java.sql.SQL Exception:Io exception:Socket closed.
What's wrong with the code?please help me.Thanks in advance.
public boolean date() throws IOException, SQLException {
Connection con1;
long millis = System.currentTimeMillis();
Timestamp timestamp = new java.sql.Timestamp(millis);
ResultSet rs4 = null;
try
Class.forName("oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver");
con = DriverManager.getConnection(
"jdbc:oracle:thin:@abc:1605:xyz",
"cdf", "cdf");
Statement stmt_exp = con.createStatement();
rs4 = stmt_exp.executeQuery("SELECT DATE FROM TABLE_NAME")
while (rs4.next()) {
Timestamp timestamp2 = rs4.getTimestamp("expire_date");
con1.close();
catch (Exception e)
e.printStackTrace();
finally
//ResultSet rs4 = null;
//Timestamp timestamp2;
Timestamp timestamp2 = rs4.getTimestamp("expire_date");
if (timestamp2.compareTo(timestamp) < 0) //sysdate < exp date
return true;
} else {
return false;
}

Didn't you understand what BalusC said? You're closing the connection and then trying to use the ResultSet. The ResultSet will be closed when you close the connection so you can't use it anymore.
You should close the connection last thing in your code, probably in a finally. And after you close your ResultSet and Statement.

Moderator Action:
You email address has been removed from your post.
You wouldn't want bad people to send you spam messages for the rest of your life, eh?
Moderator Advice:
If this is the same E2900 that you have mentioned in every one of your other forum posts, then it would seem you need to contact Technical Support and open a proper support request. These forums are NOT techsupport and that system seems so poorly configured that it needs deep analysis. Such investigation cannot be done by using an online forum.
The immediate solution is to log on to the SC of that box and power it down, then boot it back up. At least it will be running after that.

What's up with forums registration?
