Why my firmware can not be upgraded?
Why my firmware can not be upgraded? Do any one encounter the same problem? How can i fix It!!
Hi BigFatCatMan,
sorry I missed your earlier response.
Assuming that you have tried downloading a "fresh" copy of the appropriate firmware update from http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/ and it still doesn't work, you might want to consider the firmware restoration CD process discussed at http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=303469 and available through http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/firmwarerestorationcd13.html or http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/firmwarerestorationcd14.html (depending on precisely which MBP you have).
Messing with firmware is always a tad risky, though, so that visit to a Genius bar might be worth trying, given the repeated anomaly.

Your firmware can not be updated because the hard drive...SMC 1.3
Hi all !
I have a problem. I'm have a macbook pro Santa Rosa =
Model Name: MacBook Pro
Model Identifier: MacBookPro4,1
Processor Name: Intel Core 2 Duo
Processor Speed: 2.4 GHz
Number Of Processors: 1
Total Number Of Cores: 2
L2 Cache: 3 MB
Memory: 4 GB
Bus Speed: 800 MHz
Boot ROM Version: MBP41.00C1.B03
SMC Version (system): 1.27f1
This morning I saw the update for the SMC firmware (1.3).
Before restarting, I have this error :

Your firmware can not be updated because the hard drive partition scheme may not be supported. You must be booted from a GUID partiton or RAID scheme.
When I went into Disk Utility in order to check, here is what I have =
Name : FUJITSU MHY2200BH Media
Type : Disk
Partition Map Scheme : GUID Partition Table
Disk Identifier : disk0
Media Name : FUJITSU MHY2200BH Media
Media Type : Generic
Connection Bus : Serial ATA 2
Device Tree : /PCI0/SATA@1F,2/PRT0@0/PMP@0/@0:0
Writable : Yes
Ejectable : No
Mac OS 9 Drivers Installed : No
Location : Internal
Total Capacity : 186.3 GB (200,049,647,616 Bytes)
S.M.A.R.T. Status : Verified
Disk Number : 0
Partition Number : 0
I thought Boot Camp could be involved becauseI know it's the only thing related to the EFI.
I searched on internet, and Ifound nothing. There was a solution in order to reset the partition table, but the tool is no longer available. The link on on the application explains that I have to reformat my macbook pro. I find a bit weird to make this , I can't spend hours for backup / restore just because the SMC update does not work. have you any lead for me ?
Thanks ,
RaziqueHave you tried this:
Repairing the Hard Drive and Permissions
Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Installer menu (Utilities menu for Tiger and Leopard.) After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer. Now restart normally.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior (4.0 for Tiger, and 4.1 for Leopard) and/or TechTool Pro (4.6.1 for Leopard) to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X. -

why my spotlight can not find my personal files ? It can find them before but can not find them now,I want to know why?
From the menu bar, select
▹ System Preferences ▹ Spotlight ▹ Privacy
The list of items excluded from Spotlight indexing is shown (it may be empty.) Click the plus (“+”) icon to add an item to the list. Select your boot volume (under DEVICES) and add it to the list. Then remove it from the list by selecting it and clicking the minus (“-“) icon.
Spotlight will rebuild the index. If you try to do a Spotlight search now from the magnifying-glass icon in the top right corner of the display, a pulsing dot will appear in the icon. When the dot disappears, the indexing is complete. -

Why my ipad can not update the ios7.1.1
why my ipad can not update the ios 7.1.1
Hello there, crivera350.
The following Knowledge Base article offers up some great steps for if you are unable to update your iOS device:
If you can't update or restore your iOS device
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808
Recovery mode erases your device and restores it, which should resolve the issue. If you previously synced with iTunes or iCloud, you may be able to restore from your backup after recovery.
Turn off your device. If you can't turn it off, press and hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time and wait a few seconds for it to turn off.
Plug the device's USB cable into your computer only.
Hold down the device's Home button as you connect the USB cable to it.
When you see the Connect to iTunes screen, release the Home button. If you don't see this screen, try steps 1 through 3 one more time.
iTunes should open and display a message such as: "iTunes has detected an iPhone in recovery mode. You must restore this iPhone before it can be used with iTunes."
Use iTunes to restore your device.
If you don't see your device in iTunes, follow these steps for Mac or these for Windows.
Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,
Pedro. -

Why att store can not help for unlocking the phone
I followed the instructions to unlock our two old iphones after having iPhone 6. I received "unlock" message for one phone and did not receive the message for other phone. I am not sure if the phone has been unlocked. I went to AT&T store at Bridgewater Commons, NJ. and like to know if it Is unlocked. I was told that they can not tell and I need go to T mobile store to find out. I stopped by T mobile and found out the phone is still locked. So I went back to the AT&T store to try getting help. Because I already tried to unlock this phone three times before. There were 10 ATT people in the store and only two or three customers there. I asked one of employees to tell me what I need to do. I was told that they do not have the service to help unlocking and I need to call customer service. I said to her that you have 10 employees here and why can not help, I would like to speak to the store manager. The store manager Dawn was there and she told me the same thing. They can not help and I need to call the customer service. I kept asking but why you can not help. Finally she said that she can help me to call the customer. She called and the phone was not go through. Finally the employee asked me the phone number and I thought that maybe she will help me to unlock. Actually she just made another unlock request online for me and I need to wait the email in 24 hours and redo the unlock process later. I would to know why att store can not help the customers to unlock their old phones after getting the new phones. Why att keeps 10 employees in one store and can not help to solve customer problems.

AT&T keeps 10 employees at a store in case they need them to assist customers with purchasing items, or with items recently purchased.
The Store representatives can't help you with the unlock portion because it requires access to systems they are not authorized to access. If store employees could access the unlock system (other than the very same portal you can access) then there would be a high risk that there would be inapropriate unlocks by employees for their friends & relatives. AT&T's solution is to not allow them access to those systems, and have everyone go through the same process so that everyone gets the same treatment. If you are having problems with your unlock requests through the portal, try contacting customer support or you can send a private message to the escalation team at ATT Customer Care and someone will get in touch with you in two to three business days to help you get a resolution to your problems.

Why db mirror can not set db recovery model to simple?
Hi ,All
I have a question .
DB replication can set db recovery model to simple ,why db mirror can not db recovery model to simple.
DB mirror must be set to full recovery model.
As far as I know, whatever db mirror and db replication ,there is a log reader to read the log in the ldf file
DB mirror and DB replication are almost the same principle to replicate the db to another db server
Thanks a lots
Love SQLDatabase mirroring involves redoing every
insert, update, and delete operation that occurs on the principal database onto the mirror database as quickly as possible. Redoing is accomplished by sending a stream of active transaction log records to the mirror server, which applies log records to the
mirror database, in sequence, as quickly as possible. Unlike replication, which works at the logical level, database mirroring works at the level of the physical log record.
There is no log reader agent in case of mirroring its more internal. Mirroring
uses the transaction log to redo everything at the mirror site. In simple recovery model, the transaction log is effectively transitory and only enough information is kept in the log for undo/redo to keep the database consistent during
crash recovery. Thats why mirroring does not work in simple recovery model. -
If I update my iPhone to iOS 6 will it still sync with my iPad 1 which can not be upgraded?
If I update my iPhone4s to iOS 6 will it still sync with my iPad 1 which can not be upgraded to that iOS?
As there is no way to sync an iPad to an iPhone, your question is a bit confusing. You can sync both devices to iTunes or iCloud. That doesn't change.

Why Oracle9i statement can not add " ; " in java ?
Hi,
I have a following java programme:
import java.sql.*;
public class Result1 {
public static void main(String args[]) {
Connection con = null;
try {
Class.forName("oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver").newInstance();
System.out.println("JDBC driver loaded");
con = DriverManager.getConnection
("jdbc:oracle:oci:@xxxxxx","xxx","xxx");
System.out.println("Database connection established");
ResultSet rs=null;
String user_id1="user101";
String queryString = ("SELECT * FROM fixed_asset;");
PreparedStatement stmt = con.prepareStatement(queryString);
rs = stmt.executeQuery();
while (rs.next()) {
String s2 = rs.getString("db_id");
System.out.println(s2);
catch (ClassNotFoundException cnfe) {
System.out.println("ClassNotFoundException: Could not locate driver");
} catch (SQLException cnfe) {
System.out.println("SQLException: Could not connect to database");
} catch (Exception e) {
System.out.println
("An unknown error occurred while connecting to database");
} finally {
try {
if (con != null) {
con.close();
} catch(SQLException sqle) {
System.out.println("Unable to close database connection.");
This prog can be compiled, but when it run it show can't not connect to database.
But when i remove the ; in the queryString such that
String queryString = ("SELECT * FROM fixed_asset");
It can complete show the result i want .
Why it can not support ";" and how can i add two execute statements at the same time?
Thx ,
RickyWhen you include the semicolon, the error is generated when you execute the statement and probably indicates an invalid character error. Your error handler is assuming that any SQLException indicates that the program was unable to connect to the database, which is an incorrect assumption. Including a semicolon in a standalone SQL statement is invalid syntax.
In Oracle, you cannot pass a semicolon separated list of SQL statements to the database to be processed. If the statements are related, however, you can use an anonymous PL/SQL block to achieve the same result, i.e.
BEGIN
<<statement 1>>;
<<statement 2>>;
<<statement 3>>;
