What's your actual bill?

Hi all-
I'm considering rejiggering my telephone life -- ditching my landline and DSL, getting fixed wireless high speed internet, and trading in our T-Mobile phones for iPhones for me and my wife. I'm trying to figure out if I can do this while not paying any more (or maybe even a little less!) for all these services. To that end, I'm wondering if those of you who have the 3G iPhones could share what your actual monthly bill is, since there's always taxes and surcharges. I know that these vary by location, but just getting a sense of the ballpark would be helpful.
At the moment, my wife and I are on a family plan w/T-Mobile; the "official" rate we pay is $68/month, but with surcharges the bill usually comes to about $85. Right now my eye is on the AT&T FamilyTalk plan w/two phones and 700 minutes, which officially comes to $129.99/month. I'd appreciate anyone willing to share their real-world bill on this score!

PS Edit to mention: We live in Baltimore, if anyone local wants to chime in on how much they pay.

Hi all-
Thanks for your replies ... as an update to my original question, it would be helpful to know which of AT&T's plans you're signed up for (you can see the list here: http://www.wireless.att.com/cell-phone-service/specials/iphone-info.jsp). I'm really trying to get a feel for what the difference is between the advertised price and what you actually pay on your bill. And I'm looking for US prices, mostly because in most parts of the world, the price they give you is the one you actually pay! It only seems to be here that you find out about the taxes and fees after the fact.

What is your solution for getting public transportation in map? Actually my iphone is useless for me because it hasn't a public transportation map.

what is your solution for getting public transportation in map? Actually my iphone is useless for me because it hasn't a public transportation map.

This has been a huge problem for me too. I was actually late to work yesterday and wanted to throw my phone out the window of the bus that I finally was able to find. I'm new to Portland, so this suddenly missing feature is particularly problematic. It really is so hard to avoid getting angry, I just can't believe they would eliminate a feature that people rely on so heavily. But anger doesn't do any good so I'm trying my hardest to stay calm and figure out an acceptable solution while Apple works to restore this feature - at least I pray to God that that's what they aim to do. Here are the apps that I've been trying, I'll try to explain how they work and maybe they will work for you. This is going to be a long post, but I'm hoping some people will find it helpful.
I'll start with the most obvious of all - adding Google Maps to your homescreen. Every time you launch the app you will get a diaologue prompting you to allow Google Mpas to use your location, and then you will be in an environment that looks similiar to what we are used to. It does not integrate with your contact list, so one workaround I've been using is going to my contacts and holding my finger on an address to copy it to the clipboard. Be aware that leaving this web app will lose whatever you're looking at and go back to the start, so best to do this before you launch it. You'll notice some strange behavior - for instance the drop down menu of suggested locations will apear and then quickly disaprear, so just ignore this. Often it will often unexpectadly scroll to the top for some reason when you're trying to do something towards the bottom. Haven't figured out a fix except for trying to not get flustered and doing things slowly and deliberately. It's not as quick as we're used to anyway so this is not hard to do. If you'd like to see any of the suggested routes on a map you can do this by clicking the small 'Map View' link. Just be aware that you can only do this once or you will have to type in your starting an ending points again, as there is no way to go back to the list you were just looking at once you are in map view. One thing that I have found helpful about the Google maps method is when looking at a route, whether in list or map view, you can see the stop ID right there, which is helpful if your city has a way to check real-time arrivals. For instance here in Portland you can text this stop ID to a certain number and immediately receive real-time arrivals.
The app I've been using most is called 'Transit'. It's pretty beautiful aesthetically, and the UI is simpler than anything else I've come across, which is convenient for a task that you want to accomplish as quickly as possible so you can put away your phone and be on your way. When you first launch it you're presented with three bus routes that stop near your current location. It tells you which direction the route is headed and in how many minutes the next bus is scheduled to arrive. This is helpful if you are familiar with that particular busline, otherwise there's no indication of where the line will take you. Upon clicking a line, you're presented with three buttons (again, loving the simplicity). One reverses the direction of that same busline. One expands the list of times so you can quicly see all the arrival times for that bus route at that particular stop for the entire day. The other takes you to map view and quickly displays the location of this stop. And here's the best feature of all (!!), it shows you the busline as a blue line and every single stop is marked with a circle. You can click on a circle and it displays the expected arrival time at that stop. This is all very helpful in some circumstances, but of course it does not let you type in a destination and have it build a route for you, and if you'll be transferring to another line this will not help you at all. To accomplish this you press the arrow in the lower left where you can type in a starting point, ending point, and an arrival/departure time. And this DOES reference your contact list. It will then allow you to quickly switch between three routes that it selects. It also searches Maps (actually it says 'Powered by Foursquare' for landmarks/establishments. For instance if I type in 'sushi', I'm presented with a handful of sushi joints in my area. There is a bug in this app where sometimes the 'Route' button is missing and you can only resolve this by leaving the app and quitting the process in the multitasking trail. When it builds your route, you can click on any point of transfer and it will tell you what time that bus/train is leaving. There is no list view, but personally I never found list view very helpful anyway. I know some people will disagree though.
Now I'll talk about HopStop. This is a kind of clunky interface unfortunately, and also has ads which I can't stand. It is able to reference your contact list. My least favorite thing about this app is the list it gives you is so excessively long-winded it's hilarious. Every single stop along the route is listed in this list view, so you'll be scrolling through literally dozens of pages of useless information like 'Pass such-and-such - 1 min. Pass such-and-such - 1 min. Pass such and such - 2 min.' Oh well. The good news is on this insanely long list, it indicates when you are supposed to do something other than sit patiently in your seat by having an icon to the left of that instruction - either a person walking or a bus number. When you switch to list view unfortunately it no longer displays departure times, so you'll have to be switching betwen maps and list view. One great feature of this app is it lets you save routes to your favorite list. It also lets you find bus stops and quickly see what bus lines hit those stops. I can't stand the flashing advertisements, so I avoid using this at all costs.
On to 'City Maps'. Again, the first thing you will see is a short list of bus lines that hit the stop nearest to you. Tap on one and it shows you the next three departures in either direction, as well as the distance between your current location and the stop in question. This app also searches for restaurants and such, but takes this feature on step further. Here when I type in 'sushi' and select a restaurant, I'm brought to a page that links to the Yelp, Foursquare, and Facebook pages associated with it - even has a link that takes you directly to the menu if Foursquare has it. Awesome feature, right?? Tap on 'Map' and it immediately displays the location and an option to build a few routes. It always displays the walking route below the bus lines to give you a sense of how long it would take (even if it's a two hour walk). Clicking on a bus route on this list takes you to list view. Unfortunately this also displays a deluge of pointess turns that only the bus driver need worry about, but it's not as bad as HopStop. There's an optional feature where it can display Google Street View images right in this list view, if you think that could be helpful. With one tap it quickly switches to a very aesthetically pleasig map view. There's an update button that lets you immediately refresh directions, edit starting/ending points, or give it new directions altogether.
I'm sure in just a moment someone will come along and say something insulting about how we're blowing things out of proportion. I guess that's just the nature of trolls - a lot of people find being angry on forums while hiding behind their screen names cathartic for obvious reasons. Let's all of us just do our best to ignore these people and keep this discussion diplomatic and oriented towards helpful solutions. I know none of us want to give up our beloved iPhones, I'm only considering it as a last resort.

The constitution of India (Full) app is shown as 170 rupees in the app store. Today I bought the app and 280 rupees is deducted from my bank account. Can anyone please confirm what is the actual price of the app.

It's listed in the store as 170. What shows on your email receipt and/or on your purchase history : if you log into your account on your computer's iTunes via the Store > View Account menu option you should then see a Purchase History section with a 'see all' link to the right of it, if you click on that link your purchases should be listed with the most recent above the list.
And did you add or change the credit card details on your iTunes account when making the purchase ? If you have then each time that you do so a small temporary store holding charge may be applied to check that the card details are correct and valid and that it's registered to exactly the same name and address as on your iTunes account - it should disappear off your account within a few days or so.

What's YOUR Idea of an "Ideally Organized HD?

What's YOUR Idea of an "Ideally Organized HD?"
I've been giving this a lot of thought lately. Whereas it is obvious that OSX organizes your hard drive better than anything on Windoze, especially when you consider the power derived from using Spotlight, I have been wondering exactly WHAT, WHAT does an Ideally Organized Hard Drive look like? What are it's properties? I don't mean how it should look specifically to YOU, the single user. I mean what does an ideally organized Hard Drive look like to everyone running OSX? (which is everyone). What are some of the components of a ideally organized hard drive? What does it look like/feel like? Not necessarily in order of importance, I'll start this one off:
An Ideally Organized Hard Drive Has These Properties (feel free to add your ideas):
1) All the music, documents, apps, pictures and movies go into their designated locations, just for starters. You may even want to create another main Category such as I did, and call it "All Talk & Sound FX". Here's where I stick my voice, and talk radio, and verbal jokes etc. for example.
2) There are NO identical (duplicate) files, but the thorough and profuse use of Alias files are implemented. {{{if you have duplicates, and you update the one, you necessarily have to update the other, otherwise, you don't have duplicates anymore, right? But if you use an Alias, no matter which file, original or Alias, that you update, BOTH files are updated.}}}
3) The HD is organized for EASY Backup on a daily basis: Everything new gets placed into an "Everything New" file (call it what you want) on the Desktop, then this one folder is backed up daily, saved onto an external HD, then loaded back and now actually saved onto the HD as new stuff just once a week (in accordance to #1); this is the outcome from doing a Restore from this backed-up "Everything New" folder. Everything goes into this "Everything New" folder on a daily basis; however, Applications are installed immediately whereas everything else just gets popped into the "Everything New" folder for holding.
4) Many files are annotated in the Get Info Window with easy to find key words and comments. Spotlight will do the rest my friends!
5) A DMG of the HD (a perfect Clone which is achieved using your Tiger Disk--Disk Utility) is done on a weekly basis (heck, all you have to do is launch the software at night, go to bed, have an automatic shutdown on your Mac for about 3.5 hours later (for a 23GB DMG Disk Image)). {{Note that a Restore from the "Everything New" folder must be done first!, prior to making the DMG}} When this Disk Image is made, it will have All of your Preferences, All of your newly installed applications, All of your Bookmarks, All of your new additions to iCal, All of your new Addresses, EVERYTHING, and therefore these specific folders do NOT have to be backed up **separately** by using this process as I describe.
Once a week you will Restore from this DMG (which takes an hour if you have previously verified/mounted this image), then delete the week-old Backup of the "Everything Folder", because your HD now now has all these files added to it (remember, the key here is to do a Restore from the "Everything New" folder first, before you made the most recent DMG). You can now also delete any old Disk Images that you want, because you will be making more! (I always keep 2 or 3 on hand). You can now also delete any old "Everything New" backups from your External, because you will be making more of these backups as well!
6) Your Hard Drive should utilize the copious amount of custom icons, in order to quickly spot and identify files/folders.
7) You have created shortcuts (Alias') on the HD, which point to spots on the External HD, (which is not only used for Backup as recently described) to facilitate the transfer of large files (example: AIFF's) to/from the external HD. My External HD has a working "Powerbook" folder where these files are saved to, keeping my internal HD at a bare minimum of growing size, yet the files are easily uploaded/downloaded between the external and internal, and viewed, when the External is attached (of course) to the internal.
8) The hard drive lacks any sensitive material whatsoever, i.e. passwords are kept on an external hard drive, and new ones are backed up daily to the Everything New folder. Using a free program such as Password Vault also strengthens this area of security and organization. If the Passwords are kept to an external location, and yet are easily accessed by an Alias, then they are 100% safe to reside on the External, since the External would have to be attached in order for the passwords to be read.
9) Maintenance is run routinely on the HD, using a program such as Onyx, especially before and after the disk image process. You can also schedule Onyx to run the Apple maintenance scripts automatically, when you are asleep. Also part of this maintenance would be running a program such as Disk Warrior, before and after the disk image process. Onyx and Disk Warrior go hand in hand, and although you will not "see" (visually) HOW your HD has been organized more efficiently, you will experience the benefits of using Disk Warrior (faster/more responsive), which organized your HD Directory automatically.
10) Another nice little Utility is SpeedTools, which has a great program for Defraging files. Yes, I've found that Disk Defrag does work. Point #10 does nothing for "organizing", however I make this point because Disk Defrag does indeed help your HD to run more efficiently (thus faster).
*** Ohh by the way, maybe I'm saying the following as a joke, maybe I'm not. But if you follow my suggestions above, you wouldn't be so paranoid about downloading the latest update to Tiger (or Leopard when that comes out) because the old "Archive & Install" option becomes obsolete. If you run into trouble NOW, using my methods, you now have the peace of knowing that you have a perfectly Cloned Disk Image of your valuable, ideally organized Mac HD, residing on an external drive and just waiting to be called into action! ***
Finally, please note that I am not telling you how to organize your hard drive, I am only suggesting this as one way to do it, and the way that I do it. If you have something totally different from this, but it works for you, please post that. If you want to add to what I've said, go right ahead! But if you don't agree with something I've said, then by all means offer your own suggestion and be civil about it! Thanks!

You and everyone else that takes the time to read, and understand what I said, and can benefit from this, is WELCOME! ; )
By the way, I forgot to mention. I use "Micon" a little terrific freeware program (from VersionTracker) to make (initialize) my custom icons. I also use Graphic Converter to make my own original icons of anything I like. Don't underestimate the value in making your own custom icons-- they really stand out from the "standard old blue".

What is the actual size of an (empty) varray in a record?

what is the actual size occupied by an (empty) varray in a record?
For example, if I create my table defined as:
create or replace type XXX as object (
myRefs VARRAY(10) of REF(yyy)
create table YYY as XXX;
what is the actual size of the record of type XXX when 'myRefs' is empty? For some reason, select data_length from all_tab_cols where table_name = YYY seems always to return 3K as the length of column myrefs.... is that correct? If not, what is the correct size?

A tad late here...
Storage sizes of REF attributes are described here:
[Design Considerations for REFs - Storage Size of REFs|http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E11882_01/appdev.112/e11822/adobjdes.htm#i452226]
The size of your REF attribute (or element, in your case) will depend on whether it is primary key-based or system-generated, whether it is scoped or not, and whether it carries with it a rowid hint. The overall size of your VARRAY attribute as it grows will also depend on whether you allow null REF values or not, but essentially will be the size of your REF multiplied times the number of elements in your VARRAY (plus a small, constant amount of storage for internal housekeeping, both for the attribute and for each element).
You could try the VSIZE function as an appromixation...
[Oracle® Database SQL Language Reference - VSIZE|http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E11882_01/server.112/e17118/functions233.htm#SQLRF06162]

Forms and validations - here's some of my ideas, what are yours?

One of the big things still missing from the JFX space (especially where JEE is concerned) is forms and form validations. Maybe you guys have been luckier but at least 80% of the screens I've had to build in my career have been boring old forms - enter data in the fields, validate them and hit submit.
So, I've been hacking around on this to try and get a pattern and hopefully some reusable classes for doing this in JavaFX. I have something that works but the code is verbose and less than elegant. I'm hoping some of you guys might want to kick around some ideas on this with me here. If we can come up with something that works, I'd like to either include it in [url http://www.zenjava.com/jfx-flow/]JFX Flow, or put it out as a separate open source project (whichever makes more sense).
What I think needs to be supported:
* Map between a normal Java bean and the fields on a form
* Validate the data, i.e. specifying the constraints on a field and then checking those constraints
* Show a validation summary at the top of the form
* Highlight individual fields if they have validation errors
* Support auto-validation, i.e. the validation highlights and messages will instantly update as the user types
Some extra restrictions:
* The data input will ideally be a normal bean and so it won't have observable values on it. In most projects I use, the beans are coming from the server and sometimes may be shared between desktop client and a jsp/web client, or even be a third party API so they can't be changed. End result: we don't want any JFX complexities or dependencies in our server code (design leak). This rule could be bent but only as a last resort.
* The validations must be defined relative to the normal data bean not a JFX model or controller, etc. This is so the bean can be validated on the server as well as the client. The server must do validation to prevent dodgy data getting in (never trust a client). Ideally we don't want to be specifying the validations in two places (i.e. once for the client and once for the server) as this creates maintenance problems and weakens the integrity of the system over time.
* Ideally the validation mechanism will be based on [url http://java.dzone.com/articles/bean-validation-and-jsr-303]JSR 303 - Bean Validations as this is quite nice. This is flexible however if there is a suitable alternative that integrates better.
To give us something to reference in conversation, I've created a small working sample. This is only meant to be a rough starting point (at best) and I'd really like to get feedback on both the code (i.e. should we have a 'presentation model', how could bindings be better used, etc) and the general way I'm representing errors (i.e. should we use tooltips to show errors, or actually show the errors next to the field, should we use border colours or put a little exclamation mark over the field, should the fields be auto-validated or only validated on submit, etc).
The example is a single form for editing a person. It has three fields, first name, last name and gender. When the form is blank, auto-editing is off. When the user submits the form it is validated and from that point on auto-validating is on. Error fields are highlighted with a style change, and a tooltip is added with details (I think we can do better - what's your ideas?).
I have used all plain Java to keep thngs simple, but I'd be looking for the end result to translate to FXML as well. I've also coded everything into the one class but the eventual goal would be to have the common stuff moved out to reusable base classes, etc.
Here's a workspace with some example code in it: http://code.google.com/p/jfxee/source/browse/trunk/jfxforms/
Here's a running deploy of that code: http://zenjava.com/demo/form/forms.html
(edit: I've moved the code to its own project and changed the url for the launch - the values above are the new, correct ones)
Looking forward to hearing some thoughts on this topic.

At Devoxx I did some straw man prototype that you might find useful (or hopeless, I'm not sure which, I did it in a hurry :-)). I followed some principles that I was influenced by years back by JGoodies, but I haven't looked at the JGoodies stuff in forever and know it isn't all the same. But anyway, like I said, I'm not sure it is actually useful but maybe there is something genius hidden in there.
I have a Validator, which is just a simple SAM:
import javafx.scene.control.Control;
* @author Richard
public interface Validator<C extends Control> {
    public ValidationResult validate(C control);
}The idea is that it is given a Control, it will validate that control, and then return a ValidationResult. ValidationResult is actually only needed in cases of errors, since returning null indicates success, so the following is somewhat of a crock but you could rename it ValidationError or something and remove the "SUCCESS" type and there you are.
public class ValidationResult {
    public enum Type { ERROR, WARNING, SUCCESS }
    private final String message;
    private final Type type;
    public ValidationResult(String message, Type type) {
        this.message = message;
        this.type = type;
    public final String getMessage() {
        return message;
    public final Type getType() {
        return type;
    }For good measure I threw in a ValidationEvent.
import javafx.event.Event;
import javafx.event.EventType;
* @author Richard
public class ValidationEvent extends Event {
    public static final EventType<ValidationEvent> ANY =
            new EventType<ValidationEvent>(Event.ANY, "VALIDATION");
    private final ValidationResult result;
    public ValidationEvent(ValidationResult result) {
        super(ANY);
        this.result = result;
    public final ValidationResult getResult() { return result; }
}Because Control's don't presently have the notion of validation built in, I created a ValidationPane which is like a specialized StackPane, where there is a bottom layer, the control, and a glass pane layer. And from CSS you can style it however you like. The ValidationPane has a CSS style class set in case of errors / warnings. So without augmenting controls, the idea is that a ValidationPane subclass would exist to wrap each type of control you needed to validate. It did this because somebody has to wire up the listeners to the control to react on text input etc, and so I thought I'd like that encapsulated in something reusable, and there it was.

            public void changed(ObservableValue<? extends C> ov, C oldValue, C newValue) {
                if (oldValue != null) oldValue.textProperty().removeListener(textListener);
                if (newValue != null) newValue.textProperty().addListener(textListener);
    public TextInputValidatorPane(C field) {
        this();
        setContent(field);
}This should also be usable as is from FXML since you can easily wrap a TextInputValidatorPane around a TextField, and CSS does all the styling, so I think it all just works. You probably need to have some library of sophisticated Validators which know how to read text from a TextField and compare against the validation annotations, but otherwise it should work well enough. Anyway, in the actual implementation I think I would omit the ValidationPane stuff completely and just build that part into the controls / skins. Like I said, this was a quick hack but seemed to get the "how do I visualize validation errors" part of the problem solved.

What's with my bill, i got all these random changing amounts that shouldnt be there

i look at my phone bill, and it says for monthly access charge which is supposed to be the monthly charge, always changing (BY OVER A HUNDRED DOLLARS) back and forth, and last month's bill, i got charged for a charge that had (month in advanced) put in there so i got double the charges, now when i try to pay my bills, it wont accept the amount i put in. like if i need 500 bucks put on, i put 500 and it wont let me put it in apparently it's not a whole dollar amount. but what the heck is going on with all these different charges?

The easiest explanation would be that there have been multiple changes to the plan over the last several months. AOLs and line transfers between the parent and sub-accounts can also cause situations like these as well. The best way to find out is to go to your detailed bill online and then start at pages 3-4 (page 4 is usually the start page for the primary line).

For those with RSD: what is your Problem Description?

I just got the box by DHL to send my MacBook with RSD to Memphis. On the other side of the shipping label is:
Problem Description: No Power/No Light.
This obviously doesn't describe the problem. So, others with RSD that are sending your MacBooks to Memphis: what does your Problem Description say?
I found an old post (http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=2889831&#2889831) about this but that was made before this problem became widespread like it is now.

BOTH BOXES I've received in the last two months (one each for the TWO TIMES I've sent my MB in, once for RSD, second time cause it died completely with 15 minutes of getting it back from the RSD repair) said "No Power/No Light," but through my discussions (many) with AppleCare, they are aware of the actual problem.

Itunes application store bill to your phone bill

When buying applications off the app store, is it possible to get billed to your phone bill instead of visa. So that what ever u got over the month will appear on your phone bill.

Dang so you can only use credit card or visa, there is no way of it being applied your phone bill? That *****

What is your Premiere, After Effects and SpeedGrade Workflow?

Hi Everyone,
I am an experienced editor who's switched to Adobe's CC barely a year ago. At the moment I'm in the midst of finishing up a corporate project and trying to think of the best workflow between Premiere, After Effects and SpeedGrade. I'm loving the Dynamic Link workflows, but at the some time I'm facing some obstacles, and am wondering how you guys do your work.
Let's say I finished the edit of the project and send the project via Dynamic Link to SG. I finish the grade and then decide to use the Dynamic Link to AE to add some titles with shapes and effects such as Fast Blur. This is where I'm facing the first problem. When I choose a clip to be 'Replaced with an AE Composition', the color correction is gone, and now if I grade in SG, it will naturally grade the titles I added. So, it seems as though my color grade is a waste of time and I have to do it the old school way of first absolutley completing the color grade, exporting, re-importing and then heading for titles and effects. That makes you lose quite a bit of "dynamics" in your work (and time aka money), if my clients want changes for example.
For simple animations with text, and shapes, this is not a big issue since you could easily add the titles to a second Video track. But when you use After Effects which changes the acutal image of a clip by adding effects, things don't work out too easily. But in any case, these might just be the limitations to the relativley new Dynamic Link workflow.
In my specific example, how would you go about it? What is your workflow? Maybe I'm missing out on some tips & tricks.
Be happy to hear from you guys and maybe get some expert knowledge.
Best,
fabian

Hey there,
I'm also looking for a solid workflow solution since adopting (and actually really liking) Speedgrade. So below is what I'm going to try which should work and will follow this thread to see if any other workflows pop up. Also typing this out here to help me with plan of attack
Project Specs - 3 minute corporate video with text animation, interviews, broll, and computer screen replacement
Edit in Premiere
Dynamic link to SpeedGrade for color correction
Open back up in Premiere, confirm all color corrections are applied, and then duplicate sequence to an AE Prep extension
In AE prep sequence, take all AE "base" shots (for computer screen composite or anything needing stabilization) up onto their own track (i.e. V5 & V6)
Add 10 frame handles to in & out, checkerboard clips as needed
Delete all other remaining content but keep blank spaces / no ripple deletes
Export this out to a ProRes4444 QT movie
Import ProRes4444 QT movie back into premiere, add over existing video layers in AE Prep extension sequence, and then there time out the screen shot replacement content to cover effect duration
Dynamic link AE Prep Premiere Pro sequence to AE
Do the AE work
Dynamic link back to Premiere
DoneHopefully
This was my similar work around back in the day before I had Automatic Duck in FCP to AE
Hope this helps anyone else - if there are any glaring "why would you do all that" points - please let me know I'll also report back if there are any horrible roadblocks throughout the process.

What can I actually to with database connections?

This may sound like an odd question, but once I define a MySQL connection in Dreamweaver, what can I actually do with it? Let me clarify what I'm doing:
I've only just found out that we can define MySQL connections when a PHP/MySQL site is defined. I'm used to administering my databases via MySequel or phpMyAdmin. Accessing databases in Dreamweaver would rock!
So now I've got a connection, I can read all my tables... but I can't seem to do anything with them. I can't add data, I can't modify data - all I can do is look at what's already there. I can click the "insert code" or the "view data" option, but they don't seem to do anything useful: The first option only pastes whatever is highlighted in my code, and the second brings up a window displaying the data.
What am I missing? Can I change the data somehow and just haven't found the option yet? Or what else can I use my database for?
For example, exporting or importing data, synchronising with another database/database host, etc?

Database connections are used to develop data driven web sites. So if you are familiar with server side scripting you can write code to make your site dynamic. In the past, DW had server behaviors that streamlined the process of creating web forms and display areas to insert, update and select from database tables, but these have been removed as the code was never quite up to current standards.

What is the actual cost of SAP original Software?

hi experts
<b>What is the actual cost of SAP original Software to implement in one software company.</b>
thanks in advnace

Between $1 and $100,000,000.
Lots of variables... yearly licensing fees or full purchase, R/3 or complete NetWeaver suite, single user or multi-user, several levels of support or no support, implementation partner expenses, types of hardware, etc....
EDIT:
I just noticed you said "one software company". There are other options if you want to be a "partner". It is one thing to use the software to run your company, it is another if you want the software because your company wants to develop add-ons.

What have you tried so far in terms of troubleshooting this issue? Are you plugging the iPod into a high powered USB 2.0 port on the back of your PC? Have you tried a different USB cable?
What happens if you try to reset the device with it still connected to the PC?
How to reset iPod
Has this iPod ever worked on this PC or is this the first time you have time you have tried connecting it?
Have you carefully worked through each and every single suggestion in this Apple support document?

HT4260 what is the actual range of airport extreme in meters ? can it cover my whole home if it is in the range of 50 meters of radius ?

What is the actual range of the Airport Extreme in Metres? Can it Cover up to 50m in Radius?

What is the actual range of the Airport Extreme in Metres? Can it Cover up to 50m in Radius?
50m would be approximately the range.....if there were no walls or obstructions in the path the wireless signal must travel.
Since we know nothing about how many walls, ceilings or other obstructions there might be the path that the wireless signal would take in your home, or the construction type of those obstructions, we cannot even make a guess about whether the AirPort Extreme might provide a signal to cover your home.

What's your favorite of styling hyperlinks?

Hi,
what's your favorite way of styling hyperlinks?
Right now I've colored mine C=100 M=100 Y=0 Y=0 and made them underlined. I feel the underlining is a bit too harsh on my overall design. Then again if I don't underline them, how are people suppose to know they're links?
Spelling out URLs is just not an option. Unless I use TinyURL? They say their links will last forever but who knows for sure?

That is a question about cultural expectations -- I can't answer that confidently. The check mark that so often is used in US software to signal 'OK' (as in the spelling checking function where I edit this message) signals 'Error' to me -- and when it is shown in green (as Borland Software did at one point, and as Adobe does here) it signals both 'Error' and 'OK', and produces a kind of 'pulling-both-ways' effect that isn't too pleasant -- to me. I'm not sure I can come up with something that works for you.
The dialog bubbles may work -- though to me the carry overtones of a footnote or an endnote. But they pretty clearly seem to signal 'more info elsewhere', and that's definitely a step in the right direction.
I would be looking for something like a bent arrow -- perhaps Unicode U+21AA (↪), or perhaps something similar with a double arrow (Unicode U+21D2, ⇒), except I'd like it to have a similar curve at the left, half suggesting a 'click here to go elsewhere'. (Wingdings 3, character code 0xCA, is close.) But I could probably go for 0x58 in WIngdings 3, rotate it 90 degrees to the right, and perhaps tweak the small box into two smaller boxes of unequal size, suggesting movement.
Or perhaps just something that suggest a 'click here' -- some of the simpler designs in Altemus Bursts, or Altemus Pinwheel or Altemus Stars might work.
I would like something that tempted the reader into testing, and so encourage learning-by-doing. That would be helped by a similar symbol going the other way to indicate the 'back' of a web browser. Arrows help here -- they show a direction. Other designs -- bursts -- won't be a easily understood: what would be a reverse burst?.And what symbol would be used at the target end of the dialog bubbles to suggest 'go back'? (Added: perhaps a quad or square signalling 'end'?)
Arrows seem safer. Even guillemets might work, as long they won't be misread as quotes of some kind. Guillemets in a circle? There are some such glyphs like that in Wingdings. The standard 'fast forward' and 'fast backward' glyphs (in Webdings, say) may also work.
Actually ... this is the kind of problem I'd might want to suggest for a small project for a class for typeface designers.

What's your actual bill?
