Why does NM make my Gmail connect on non-secure?
Hi
just wondering why this is?
Does this now mean that my Gmail Username / Password is passed in plain text because its not on SSL??
This seems to be rather a serious security concern. I would like an answer to this question to determine if I continue with this mail product. I would rather have manual secure connection than insecure automation
Solved!
Go to Solution.
It would seem (after a discussion with Nokia care) that my concerns of security are unfounded.
The rep said that no user authentication was sent between the phone and my gmail. The pathway was that Nokia took my credentials (as discussed) at account creation and then harvested my mail and passed it on to my phone when it arrived.
I assume my phone must authenticate to Nokia when its online so as they know to push it up to me.
So to test this I put in a "lalala" password into my gmail account settings on the phone, restarted it to see if it would connect
It did
This at least allays my fears that password was being passed around in the clear. If it were connecting to Gmail with my phone based credentials it would not be able to connect with 'lalalala'
So clearly then only them mail content itself is passed in the clear.
I can live with that

Why does the Safari message "This is a non-secure form" pop everytime I go into yahoo mail? If I don't press the send option my whole computer freezes.
From the Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Extensions tab. Turn that OFF, quit and relaunch Safari to test.
If that helped, turn one extension on then quit and relaunch Safari to test until you find the incompatible extension then click uninstall. -

Why does my mouse keep losing connection every minute
why does my mouse keep losing connection every minute, its not the batteries
I'm having the same issue. Every so often it loses connection then re establishes. This goes on repeatedly.
If you change batteries while the computer is still active then it takes for ever to re connect.
Can't wait until someone replies to your question. -

It might be because the billing address you provided doesn't exactly match your bank records. It has to match your statement exactly. See http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1646.

Why does JDBC make me commit a query?
I was working with two DB2 database connections, A and B, and performed the following logic:
Turned off AutoCommit for A and B
Updated A
Updated B
Committted A
Rolled back B
Selected from A
Selected from B
Updated A
Committed A
Closed Connection A
Closed Connection B
Everything worked well until I tried to close Connection B. It threw a SQL Exception with the description "invalid transaction state". I read online that this means you are trying to close a connection with uncommitted data. It didn't make sense because the only thing I had done since rolling back was SELECT. When I tried it with a rollback or commit immediately before closing the connection, it worked. Any ideas why it would make me commit a SELECT? Is this just an unintended bug or could they have implemented it like this on purpose?I also first was wondering why a select should be committed.
But also a select can cause locks that influence other connections. How, depends on the isolation level you set. For example SERIALIZABLE would block inserts by another connection that would change your retrieval in case you repeat it.
To make the DBMS know that after your retrieval your processing of these data is done - no changes following - you must end the transaction by commit (or rollback - would be the same here since you've done no changes). -
Why does my trackpad keep losing connection
why does my trackpad keep losing connection
I am using Mountain Lion on a 2011 Macbook Pro and this is happening to me.
The notebook never used to drop the connection on Snow Leopard or Lion as far as I can remember. At first it was fine on Mountain Lion as well I think, but after the last couple updates the connection to the trackpad is gone when it wakes from sleep. Dropping down to Bluetooth and choosing connect does not help. It must be deleted and repaired each time under sytem preferences and bluetooth settings. Batteries are fine, Apple rechargables, lights up green when tap button. I also have an Apple keyboard used for this notebook and that never loses connection. Just the trackpad, and only after the most recent updates the past month or so. It pairs fine at first, then the connection is gone and I can't get it back without very inconvenient deleting and repairing.
I seem to remember it happening shortly after a long update. I am currently on 10.8.2. -

Pre "Rendering Preview" colours are better - why does LR make it worse?
Hi guys
When I upload a photo for the first time and then view its larger preview for the first time. When lightroom is generating its preview, it takes a second to generate it. When it generates the preview, the colours that it generates arn't as good as the first image of the photo you see. The photo changes colour after its generating the larger preview... and the generated colours are not as good.
Why does this occur. In all cases the colour of the photo prior to the preview being rendered are better than the colours once it has finished generating.
Cheers
AnthonyAnthony
Ok cool that makes sense... If I didn't take the photo in landscape mode or anything like that, do I just shift it back to "Camera Faithful"...
Yes and No. The profile is not chosen based on what you were shooting with (this only affects your JPGs), but based on the default, which is Adobe Standard (see also below). But switching it gives you another point to start your editing on.
Also I have a fair few photos that I would like to change back from "Adobe Standard" to "Camera Faithful" is there any way to do this on mass?
1) To change multiple photos to a specific profile:
In Develop:
Set one photo to the desired profile
Select all additional images to have the same profile in the film strip (Shift+Click or Ctrl+Click)
Press Sync...
Deselect all settings but Calibration
Hit Synchronize
2) To make a certain profile default for all imports for a specific camera type:
Set one photo to the desired profile (do not alter any other parameters, as they will be set as default also)
Press Alt and click on Set Default ...
Hit Update to Current Settings
Note: The Defaults set this way are valid for imports for a specific Camera Model, limited to a Camera Serial-No. and/or ISO Setting, depending on your settings in Preferences/Presets.
Lastly, are the colour profiles better in LR 3...
Somebody else will have to answer for this question, I think they are basically the same, but the underlying algorithm has been vastly improved. Btw, "better" is a generally a bad word when refering to camera profiles. You'll find lots of posts here regarding this subject, e.g. here.
