Why on earth the 8443?

What best can you do over the last bit of Friday? Yeah, you discovered that the SQL Azure team decided to use 8443 as the port number, and ALSO, your office firewall is blocking the outbound for that port, (yes, IT policy does exist, there is no way for
you to persuade your IT guys to open that for you, only for you, apparently.)
So while other teams happily using 443 for us developers, why on earth this 8443? At the end of day, this is supposed to be HTTPS REST access purpose, right?
Best,
dong

Hello Dong,
I know its almost 2 years later but by any chance did you ever find a way around this? I am now hitting a very similar problem:
Port 8443 for HDInsight Management API. Why?

Why is Apple the only people on earth that can't send an email to my gmail account? I use my gmail account for everything and people call me with it. Now I can't use it because Apple can't verify it.

Why is Apple the only people on earth that cannot send an email to my gmail account? I used my gmail account to receive calls on Face Time until the last update and now Apple "cannot verify" the account and they have sent over 100 "verification emails" but I have yet to receive one. Amazing!

My original Apple ID was my bellsouth address. When I got iCloud, it was merged with the .me address. I can use either to log into the same iCloud, Facetime, iTunes & Apple Store, and Messages. Seems you have 2 separate Apple IDs (one for iCloud and one for iTunes).
If you log into any app using the Apple ID such as Facetime, only the email addresses associated with it will work. You can log into the Manage Apple ID website and see what addresses are associated with that login.

I don't know of any way to merge seperate Apple IDs. You can try changing the one you use for iTunes to the one you use for iCloud and see if it works. If not, you can change the iTunes one to a different email address. Then you can disassociated the gmail address for the iTunes Apple ID and then associated it with the iCloud Apple ID. Once it's disassociated from one account, you will then be able to add it to the other and get the verification email.

HT4623 Why on earth don't you tell people to back up contacts and photos before they update software? There was no mention of the need to back up until it was too late. I have lost hundreds of valuable phone numbers and photographs.

Why on earth don't you tell people to back up contacts and photos before they update software? There was no mention of the need to back up until it was too late. I have lost hundreds of valuable phone numbers and photographs.

The update process DOES back up contacts and photos, unless you interrupted the backup. The manual tells you to sync contacts to an app on your computer, and to import photos regularly to your computer. So Apple DID tell you to back up, you just didn't bother to read it.
If you didn't sync yet (and even if you did) connect the phone to your computer, right click on its name, and choose "Restore from Backup". If there's more than one backup choose the one with a timestamp before you updated.

Why doesn't the App Store prompt for older versions on first download?

I thought Apple user interfaces were supposed to be slick. Here's what I have to do to install an app. I've inherited a first generation iPad from a friend. The iPad was fully erased and set back to factory defaults before I got it. I have created my Apple ID and started customising the machine to suit me. The machine is running the very latest version of IOS it is capable of supporting 5.1.1. So I gaily visit the app store and start trying to install a few apps I like. Of course today 90% of the apps in the store are designed for IOS 6 or later and simply refuse to install at all. So here is the rather less than slick workaround I have to do.
First I have to put the iPad away and go to my Windows 8.1 Desktop computer running iTunes. I log in using my Apple ID, visit the App Store, pick the apps I want and download a few that I'd like to my computer. I then switch back to using the iPad. Now I see the apps I've downloaded to the computer attempting to install themselves on the iPad. If I've downloaded more than one app. This fails for all the apps. I have to wait for all the apps to fail, then delete them from the iPad and then visit the App Store on the iPad and navigate to Purchased Apps section. Now I can see my apps waiting and can attempt to install them one at a time. If I do this then, each app attempts to install singly, fails, and then I am gracefully asked if I'd like to download an older version of the app. If I do that the download and install works - hooray! I then repeat this process for the remaining apps. Next time I need to install any apps I have to repeat the whole process. It's not what I'd call slick.
Why on earth doesn't the App Store simply prompt for an older version of the app when I first want to install it?
Why do I have to do the rigmarole of switching to my PC, downloading there, and then switching back to the iPad again just to force the "Would you like to download an older version of the App" prompt to appear?
I'm not impressed so far.

No one here can speak for Apple since we are all just users like you. Perhaps the answer is as simple as this. This feature just rolled out recently. Perhaps Apple thought it was important enough to make it available before they had built out the whole solution.
Just a thought.

When i open a new document, my "width" and "lenght" add two zeros automatically to file size??? For example basic A4 size in mm is 210 00mm x 297 00mm? And i can´t do nothing about it! Why on earth?

This "error note" must have something to do about it?

elppaelo,
You may try the list.
The following is a general list of things you may try when the issue is not in a specific file (you may have tried/done some of them already); 1) and 2) are the easy ones for temporary strangenesses, and 3) and 4) are specifically aimed at possibly corrupt preferences); 5) is a list in itself, and 6) is the last resort.
If possible/applicable, you should save curent artwork first, of course.
1) Close down Illy and open again;
2) Restart the computer (you may do that up to 3 times);
3) Close down Illy and press Ctrl+Alt+Shift/Cmd+Option+Shift during startup (easy but irreversible);
4) Move the folder (follow the link with that name) with Illy closed (more tedious but also more thorough and reversible);
5) Look through and try out the relevant among the Other options (follow the link with that name, Item 7) is a list of usual suspects among other applications that may disturb and confuse Illy, Item 15) applies to CC, CS6, and maybe CS5);
Even more seriously, you may:
6) Uninstall, run the Cleaner Tool (if you have CS3/CS4/CS5/CS6/CC), and reinstall.

Why on earth use nested tables?

Hi
I'm boning up on PL/SQL (again) in anticipation of getting a new job.
I have many years of experience in various data-related roles, many of which used Oracle.
On the issue of collections, I find myself asking, in the light of my experience, and not for the first time, why on earth would anyone want to do this:
create or replace type TEST_TT as table of varchar2(10);
create table TEST_TABLE ( X number
,Y test_tt)
nested table Y store as Y_TABLE; I really, really, can't think why we would want to store data like this. It seems to me to be unnecessarily complex, hiding a one-to-many relationship inside TEST_TABLE, which should instead be modelled and implemented as a separate table.
Furthermore, there are loads of tutorials on collections that tell us how to do the above (indeed I am reading Feuerstein at this very time) but nobody seems to say WHY we should do this.
Can anybody help me here?
Thanks.
Jason

For As you have surmised, just because you CAN do it doesn't mean you SHOULD do it. If you are only working with your standard relational data, such as the example you provide, it has many drawbacks and few, if any advantages.
It is easier to understand why that capability exists from the viewpoint of the question: why SHOULDN'T you be able to store data like that?
In one sense it is just another object-oriented feature. You can create object types and pass them around to procedure/functions or external processes (e.g. JDBC) so why shouldn't you be able to store that set of related data as an encapsulated object?
Why do you need an object type that has a set of columns? You can just as easily put those columns into a table. But how do you manipulate a subset of the columns or rows of a table? How do you pass that data around as a controlled, coherant set of data? You can't.
With an object type you can, though most often don't, implement encapsulated business rules that ensure that any instance of that type MUST implement. Need ADDRESS information that is required to include a street address, city, state and zip? Create an object type with the right constructor methods and you can ensure that those attributes CANNOT be null.
Once you have functionality to create and manipulate objects why not be able to pass those objects around and stored them in a table? Doesn't mean you should always store them that way but why not be able to? There isn't any reason to limit that functionality simply because you don't think it is the best practice to use it all the time.
So if you have a small dataset and want all of that data to 'travel' together nest it. There is no child table to create or foreign key to create.
I put that functionality in the category of CAN DO but DON'T DO except in rare occasions and consider it a fallout of the move to object-oriented things in general. I like the fact that Oracle makes functionilty like that available when they have it.
Like dynamic sql, materializeds views, bitmap indexes and much other functionality it is often more important to know when NOT to use it than it is to know when to use it.
Relative to 'best practices' of why NOT to do that for your basic relational data see this part of the article that Justin referred you to:
>
Followup March 3, 2003 - 6am Central time zone:
1) they are parent child tables in disguise but ones that add:
a 16 byte raw with a unique constraint on the parent table. Most likely you ALREADY HAVE a primary
key on the parent table and most likely it is smaller.
a 16 byte raw that you need to index on the child (not auto-indexed, you need to know to do it).
This is the foreign key and is hidden from you.
The inability to put many types of constraints on the nested table..
They are simple parent/child tables - except you lose the ability to access the child table
directly.
2) you are NOT storing anything in a "single row". Physically they are a parent child table pair,
nothing more, nothing less
If you have my book "Expert one on one Oracle" - I write about them in there, describe their
implementation and talk about when I would use them.

Why on earth is there no free print ability?

What gives? If the only solution from the company is to buy someone ELSES print app ... seems to me they left out something. Sort of like leaving off the mirrors in your car. Why is there no real outrage here? Doesn't anyone else WANT to use this for business?

This was a question about an expensive product and the ability to do business work on it from those of us using it as such.
You specifically asked "Why on earth is there no free print ability?" - copied directly from the subject of this thread.
There is a "free print ability". It's called AirPrint.
Apple doesn't make printers. It is up to the printer manufacturers to incorporate AirPrint in their printers (lots do), or provide an iOS specific app for printing (like they would provide drivers on a regular computer).

Why do all the white colours in my animated GIF files look grey?

Why have all the white colours in my GIF files look grey? It is only apparant once published, and can change from browser to browser? (firefox tends to work, but not chrome)
They should have white backgrounds. I have played with just about every setting when exporting the GIF in photoshop. And seems to work fine.
But when published through muse it's grey??
have a look...

When I select a netflix movie on my iPad and push it to my apple TV, why doesn't the Apple TV take over the streaming, so that I can then use my iPad for other things?

From what I can tell, when I select the movie and hit the airplay button to move it to the apple TV, my iPad is still doing all the work of streaming the movie. Why can't the apple TV take over the heavy work at this point? I'd like to be able to use my iPad as more of a remote with an awesome interface for the apple TV. The netflix app on iPad is great, and the easiest way to browse movies, and pushing them to the apple TV is fantastic, but once the movie starts, I want to use my iPad for other things!!! Can this be put on the "to do" list for devs?

Have you tried the Remote app on iPhone/iPad to control AppleTV, do searches etc? Should be easier than the remote alone and this does not involve Airplay.
Please note, only users read/comment here - your idea is quite sensible in my view (maybe have a 'Continue viewing on AppleTV' option or something. I doubt this would be high on Apple's roadmap but send them feedback here:

Why doesn't the 'Reanalyze' button work?

After accidentally syncing both the Upright Mode and the Upright Transforms (instead of just the mode) from 1 photo to approximately 200 other photos, I noticed something quite strange.
When selecting the 'Auto' upright mode on any of the other pictures, the transformation was done using data from the original photo.
When realising that I'd synced that transformation data across to a load of photos that it didn't apply to, I tried pressing the 'Reanalyze' button. This seems to have no effect - the images are still incorrectly transformed.
The only solution was to manually reset every synced photo to its imported state (although I suppose I could have undone the sync operation, but I only realised this after doing other changes). After doing this, the transformations work correctly.
Perhaps I have misunderstood what the button does, but if I have, then I can't see how you are meant to resolve this problem

Apple doesn't support web based email clients. Why not use the Mail app that's pre installeed on your Mac?

Why doesn't the iPad have a guest screen like the PC for extra security?

I just want to start off first by saying I just purchased my iPad about six months ago and I'm really enjoying it,but if you're like me,I believe in protecting my privacy.
I don't like to turn down any of friends or coworkers when I'm asked to use my iPad,but when you have such things as your personal pictures,movies,music,business documents,etc...you'd like to keep them from prying eyes. I thought that with the new iOS 7 update,that issue would've been fixed, but I was wrong. I'm hoping Apple would correct this problem with the next iOS update,it would make a lot of loyal Apple consumers & anyone who's new to purchasing the iPad for the first time very happy to know that feature is available.
Why doesn't the iPad offer a guest screen?

Why doesn't the CC app work properly?

I've been using Creative Cloud for some time now and am really loving it, however I must say it is a source of annoyance that the Creative Cloud app just doesn't work properly.
Firstly, I used it initially to download all my apps, then after an update those apps no longer appeared in the "Apps" list. Now only those that have been installed since that update appear in this list. Why doesn't the "Apps" list display all of the Adobe CC apps that I have installed on my computer?
Why does it keep reinstalling fonts? I'm always getting "Lush Script Regular" and other fonts being added.
It regularly comes up telling me that Dreamweaver and Premiere Pro need to be updated, but always I get an error, then the update request disappears.
I'm regularly getting 4 files that it can't sync - even though they are the same files as others in the folder. If nothing else, why can't I say "Great, got the message". Also, why is the error message just "due to server error" with no advice on how to resolve it? Why is there a server error on only these 4 files?
It seems to me there are still some teething issues with the CC app, but what I don't understand is why they aren't being resolved much faster, given that this is the portal to the service.
Of course, given Adobe I doubt I'll get satisfactory answers – a little jaded with their responses. Anyway, thought I'd at least post the questions.

Questapo I am sorry you have been facing difficulties with your Creative Cloud experience. I don't believe it will be possible to address all of your concerns in one discussion. I would not be surprised if at least three of the issues are related to the same root cause.
First in order for the applications to be visible are you regularly needing to delete the OPM.db file? You can find this listed as solution 2 in CC desktop lists applications as "Up to Date" when not installed - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/aam-lists-removed-apps-date.html.

Why Doesn't the XIRR function work?

In Excel if you have 5 records from a1:b5 then XIRR looks like this:
XIRR(A1:A5, B1:B5) you get a nice neat answer like .35
Here is a version that works in Crystal that would require manual entry of any new quarters numbers and dates-- and if you plug this into Crystal it works:
(XIRR([1000000,-100000,-100000,-100000,-100000,10277.49,-100000], [DateValue(1999,2,1),DateValue(1999,3,1),DateValue(1999,6,1), DateValue(1999,12,1),DateValue(2000,3,1),DateValue(2000,6,1),DateValue(2000,9,1)]))*.100
You do get a nice answer of something like .035. But this is all done manually and I need it to function automatically when the report is refreshed.
So you have a range for the currency and a range for the date fields. I need to simulate this in crystal. Crystal has an XIRR function, and with the arrays, I should be able to fill in the range, but am having difficulty getting it to work.
After building the arrays, I made another formula to combine the arrays in the XIRR formula.
I am down to this error now after getting this formula this far --
"Numerical method did not converge; try another value for guess."
Here's where I am with the formula, although they don't want to use the guess part of the XIRR function - they just want to use the XIRR(number/currency, date). Maybe you could pass this on too?:
/{@Reset} for the group header (NOT using a repeated group header):
whileprintingrecords;
numbervar array x := 0;
datevar array y := date(0,0,0);
numbervar i := 0;
numbervar j := 0;
//{@accum} for the detail section:
whileprintingrecords;
numbervar array x;
datevar array y;
numbervar i := i + 1;
numbervar j := count({table.groupfield},{table.groupfield});
if i <= j then (
redim preserve x[j];
redim preserve y[j];
x<i> := tonumber({table.currency});
y<i> := datevalue({table.datetime})
//{@xirr calc} to be placed in the group footer:
whileprintingrecords;
numbervar array x;
datevar array y;
xirr(x,y)
The array works correctly. So why do I get that error and why doesn't the XIRR formula work like they say it should? Has anyone used this successfully in Crystal--maybe you could shed some light?
Thanks!

Hi,
I am receiving that same error when the last item in the array is 0, otherwise all works perfectly.
When I run the same group of numbers and dates in Excel it returns without issue.
-265500.00,-690000.00,-570000.00,16814.25,-855000.00,-619500.00,55293.46,30411.40,15183.76, 0.00
01-25-2007,03-06-2007,05-02-2007,06-29-2007,08-01-2007,08-24-2007,09-17-2007,03-14-2008,05-28-2008,03-31-2010
=XIRR(A2:J2,A1:J1,-0.1)
Is there a known bug in Crystal's XIRR function when the last value is 0?
Or a hot-fix that will repair this?
Thanks in advance,
Gary
PS. I am using Crystal XI Product Version: 11.0.0.2495
