Why do I get # rather than £ signs in Discoverer?

When I display text in a formula column in Discoverer i get # signs rather than £'s e.g. Under#80k

Hi Chris
That would make sense. As with most things Discoverer when a workbook is saved just about all of the variables are saved with it. You may well have to rebuild the workbooks.
Before doing that though try opening one of the offending workbooks and resaving it. You should then exit Discoverer, reconnect and reopen the workbook. If this results in the correct output then voila - eureka no problem. If it doesn't then a rebuild of the workbook looks like your only option.
Best wishes

Why do I get the excalmation sign against music that has just been uploaded from C Ds.

I have just spent 2 weeks uploading C.Ds. to I Tunes on;ly to find that certain albims are made unavailable when I try to play them.Why is this happening ? AND HOW DO i RESOLVE THIS ISSUE?

Thanks for you response. Since this happened a while back, I really don't remember what I did to correct the issue. I did use the built in Mac OS X compressor (right click -> fly out menu -> Compress). It is interesting to think that a compressed file full of packaged Adobe application documents would cause so much issue.

Every time I start Firefox, why do I get a Google sign-in tab?

I’m using Firefox for Mac vets. 34.0.5, and I get that extra tab that opens every time I start Firefox in addition to the Home page I specified in Preferences. How do I stop that from happening?

Type '''about:config'''<Enter> in the address bar.
If a warning screen comes up, press the '''Be Careful''' button.
This is where Firefox finds information it needs to run.
At the top of the screen is a search bar. Type '''browser.newtab.url'''
This tells Firefox what to show when a new tab is opened.
If you want, right click and select '''Modify'''. You can change the setting to;
'''about:home''' (Firefox default home page),
'''about:newtab''' (shows the sites most visited),
'''about:blank''' (a blank page),
or you can enter any '''web page''' or '''about: page''' you want.
The same instructions are used for the new window setting, listed as
'''browser.startup.homepage'''.

Encoding issue with " " Less than sign

Hello Experts,
I am working on Receiver Webservice scenario where I am facing issue with "<" less than sign. SAP XI system automatically replace it with "<" sign. I can see the changed value in Audit log of communication channel.
Web service is not able to accept the data and I can see error message in audit log
SOAP: response message contains an error XIAdapter/PARSING/ADAPTER.SOAPEXCEPTION - soap fault: Server was unable to read request. ---> There is an error in XML document (1, 573). ---> The specified node cannot be inserted as the valid child of this node, because the specified node is the wrong type._
When I check the payload in audit log I can see the XML structure properly but as I open it in Notepad I can see character code "<" instead of u201Cless than <u201D symbol.
Audit log XML file is as given below
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
- <ns1:TurnaroundDetail xmlns:ns1="http://isotrak.com/webservices">

</ns1:TurnaroundDetail>
When I open it in notepad I can see converted value

I hope this is not caused due to AnonymizerBean configured in receiver SOAP comm channel.
anonymizer.acceptNamespaces http://isotrak.com/webservices ''
anonymizer.encoding ISO-8859-1 (also tried utf-8)
anonymizer.quote ''
Could you please suggest if I can get rid of "<" character and get < less than sign? Or it is obvious behaviour by SAP XI system w.r.t Encoding and Receiver end needs to decode this character?
Note: As per Web service requirement whole XML data to be processed by webservice is populated in single Data field. As here we are populating whole XML data file in one field named data
Thanks in advance.
Vinit.

Simply typing "Test <test> test" into a frame and exporting that yields
<ParaStyle:Body>Test \<test\> test
and reading it back into ID gives the expected result.

Sign in to iTunes Store (on desktop itunes) with your ID. Plug your iphone to itunes, right click on it and choose transfer purchases.Right click again and choose backup. Then you can sync with iTunes.

What is the problem with iCloud? iCloud has nothing to do with iTunes syncing.

How can I get new tabs to automatically open when I click on a new site (rather than replace the existing page I am using)?

For some reason when i click on to a new site or link, tabs no longer automatically open so if i forget to manually click on the little plus sign at the end of the tab strip, my new destination replaces where i currently was. This was not the case in the past and I cannot find where to reset this so that a new tab will once again auto create. !
I tried options/tabs: open new windows in a new tab instead, but this did not fix the issue. Can anyone tell me what i need to do get firefox to create auto creat a new tab when i move to a new link rather than replace the one currently in use? Thank you!

You can middle click a link to open that link in a new tab.

HT4913 Hi, I was trying add a second computer on iTunes Match. I was signed into both machines with a single ID which already has iTunes Match. When I selected iTunes match, it asked me to buy it again rather than add. Now I've got it on neither machine-

Hi, I was trying add a second computer on iTunes Match.
I was signed into iTunes on both machines with a single ID which already has iTunes Match from the primary machine. When I selected iTunes match on the second, it asked me to subscribe to it again rather than add.
To try to fix this, I signed out of the primary machine and so i was only in the second computer. This didnt work and when i tried to log back into Match on the primary machine it has the same problem now, asking me to buy iTunes Match when I already have it!
Now I've got it on neither machine- can someone please help!!
Cheers,

Hi,
You often get this message when match thinks that you already have a match in progess on another computer.
If you are happy that all your music is on your new hard drive (or if it is only in the cloud), you should select "this computer".

LG LUCID UPDATE BRICKED MY PHONE, COSTS ME $20 TO GET A REFURBISHED RATHER THAN $50 FOR A NEW ONE.

Hi all,
I made this account because I was so upset with the customer service I have received in the past 24 hours after Verizon installed an UNWANTED update on my LG Lucid phone (there was no option to defer the update or to cancel the installation). The update went to restart my phone, but for 2 hours it sat with a black screen (with the backlight), not proceeding to update. I googled and found this (https://community.verizonwireless.com/message/924484) with my exact same issue, and I followed the Verizon Wireless Customer Support advice, which ultimately BRICKED my phone. No matter what, it never moved past the LG logo with errors on the front screen.
I took it into the Verizon store, where they were kind enough to hand me the phone to customer service, who basically old me that all I could do is get a REFURBISHED (rather than NEW) phone, for the low low price of $20 for overnight shipping. WHAT A RIP OFF!!! This was an UNWANTED update to my phone, which ended up BRICKING my phone, and now I have to PAY $20 for a REFURBISHED rather than NEW phone?!?! This isn't the top of the line phone either, it was free with my update and it was the cheapest phone out on display; but I couldn't buy it new in the store for $50 because the phones are tied down to the plans -- I would have to spend $500 to buy it new! What the heck?! They tried to sell me an Iphone 4 for the $40 (just the taxes), but I would have had to buy a whole new data plan!! That is ridiculous!!!
This was a crappy update that looks like it has had the same problems since at least Oct 2012, probably longer. Since there were the same problems for the past 4 months, it is beyond me why they wouldn't update the software rather than sending out a faulty update that breaks phones. This is just a giant scam where you get your phone broken, you send it in, and you get a refurbished phone (that probably had the same problems), and it perpetuates the same scam over and over again. I am so disgusted by the way that I was treated for an unwanted software update that broke my phone (NOT a hardware or any other physical damage), and I was looked at like I was crazy when I asked for a new phone for the listed price of $50 rather than paying $20 for a refurbished one.
This whole thing is a giant scam and I am very upset with the entire situation. Verizon, you seriously need to get your act together and stop setting customers up for these scams.

A bricked phone due to a bad update is LG's responsibility, not Verizon's. Did you contact them?
They should have sent you a replacement if the phone was still under warranty.
If Verizon offered you a replacement and you didn't have a replacement plan, they went ABOVE and BEYOND to help you.
I've had to pay $99 to replace an Apple iPhone 4 due to abuse. That's the only reason I even have a thing good to say about Apple.

Yoor post is very confusing. AOL's iPad magazine is called "Editions" and it's free. "The Daily" is put out by TheDailyHolding and is owned by Rupert Murdoch. You've already posted in another thread where the solution was given. Other people seem to have manged to get unsubscribed.

Why use Protected Overide Sub OnPaint rather than the standard Paint_Event ?

I notice many good programmers use this following method rather than the usual Paint_Event when painting to the form.
Protected Overrides Sub OnPaint(e As PaintEventArgs)
Dim g As Graphics = e.Graphics
g.SmoothingMode = Drawing2D.SmoothingMode.HighQuality
g.InterpolationMode = Drawing2D.InterpolationMode.HighQualityBicubic
MyBase.OnPaint(e)
End Sub
Can anybody share the reasons why? Thanks
Top Tip: Toothache? Cut paper towel to 2"square. Smear with olive oil. Sprinkle on Cayenne Pepper. Fold over few times to form small wad. Tuck in between wall of mouth and gum. Leave 1 - 2 hrs. You will thank me!

OK Crazypennie, maybe you are right. I tend to rant on a bit sometimes.
Also, maybe the jumpy graphics is made worse because the animation output is not synced with the video hardware refresh rate. We can get around that slightly by using a very high fps.
Hi Leon,
I tried modifying your code using a GraphicsFrame class that I wrote a little while back, the class utilizes the bufferedcontext/bufferedgraphics, instead of using the forms graphics directly. In theory, all objects should be rendered to the buffer before
the forms graphics object. Is this less glitchy/faster on your pc? It seemed less glitchy/faster on mine..., and previous benchmarks show that using buffered graphics in this manner improved render time.

this thread.
