Wishes for future UI/usability development

Since one year i've changed my office-equipment from windows based to os/x based. Many wishes came true, but one very important not: I have to waste too much time with updates and reboot after updating. I hate it, to come to office, starting my macbook and seeing the message for having to update and reboot. I have to do other things. The macbook is a tool, not purpose in my life.
My wish to all developers, please create a hidden and silent update without rebooting.

Usually, the reboot means that it has to update system files that are in use—therefore, in many cases it is physically impossible to do it without a reboot.
For normal Software Updates (through the S.U. application), you can probably rig an AppleScript to download & install automatically.

  • E71 Feedback and Wish list for future development

    Hi Nokia and Nokia Fans.
    E71 is a masterpiece but I believe there's much room for improvement. My E71 is indispensable to me. I wish Nokia will strive to thrive the E series and in particular the E71.
    Here's my wish list / features to add:
    1. A Task Manager for Symbian that's Nokia naively developed is absolutely essential as it's required to manage all aspects of applications, processes and threads, especially the misbehaving ones.
    2. Use better GPS Chipset with better sensitivity as the current one is really slackly.
    3. High-Speed WiFi connection to access and manage the phone including the mass storage instead of fiddling with wires.
    4. Secure zone for creating password-protected notes/memos/etc, previously called "wallet".
    5. Add SMS "Listen" feature for sent messages.
    6. Add "Timed" Profiles.
    My feedback / Issues to fix:
    1. "Memory card in use" Error. Despite proper removal of USB connection when using PC Suite or Mass Storage data transfer.
    2. Configure to display "Firstname Lastname" format .
    3. Configure Date display to American format (Wednesday December 03 2008).
    4. Save current "configurations and user preferences" for future deployment after firmware upgrade or maintenance routine.
    5. When receiving a Bluetooth message with (.sis or .sisx) attachment, provide save to memory card option rather than launching installtion process.
    6. Setting up "WPA2 Only" mode on WLAN Security Settings for a particular Access Point will not allow communication despite the access point router/gateway is configured to work on this particular mode.
    7. Camera is another isssue. Fix color fidelity and picture clarity issues.
    Thanks
    .......To be revised as needed.

    Nice wishlist, willing to front up the extra cash to have these features? Got to remember that until these feature become more common they will stay as premium items and that you need to pay the extra money or move to a higher priced plan for them. Getting something like device locks would be great though but then what would device locks do for a customer base? and they do have the data encryption built in....
    I would like to see a 16:9 aspect ratio in the next version of the phone myself. A holster pouch w/ belt clip rather than looking for and buying an ill fitting pouch cos I really don't like the pouch it comes with and cant find a nice one. The ability to have more than just the plain 6 applications on the screen, it used to scroll if I remember correctly in the older ones. The ability to skip music tracks when pressing volume up or down. 3.5mm audio jack. Time and date or at least time shown on the top strip of the display when going through the menu (there are a number of time I want to know the time and have to program juggle to find out what it is. More symbols on the other keys rather than just on the right hand side, I do have 2 thumbs available to use and fairly dexterous with either hand.
    Less "download - **bleep**" in the web menu it takes me to a link with useless stuff on it.....
    That GPS chip needs to be replaced, it has me walking down the road or in my neighbours house when I'm just lying in my lounge.
    This wish is for all Nokia Symbian devices, I would love to see a Nokia App store. I'm sure it'll come around once they get the symbian foundation off the ground but i'm impatient and a lil lazy and haven't always got the time to find an application for something I have thought up. Blackberry and Apple have got something of a centralised store up and running, C'mon Nokia! Get a move on!

  • IWeb Bugs and a wish for the future. :)

    Hi there,
    Two issues that I've found moving my photoblog to iWeb, and I'm wondering if they are bugs or issues that the community knows about:
    1. I've changed the template I used a lot - font colours, background, etc. Now when I create a new blog entry, it uses the old, standard template and I have to change everything again. Is there a way to make iWeb realise that I've changed my "default" template settings so all new entries remain the same? It seems not. This is my feature wish.
    2. Related to this, I solve this problem by just duplicating one of my existing pages and then changing the photo and content and date. The PROBLEM with this is where i think the bug exists. In iWeb, when I click Next/Previous, it goes between the different entries in chronological order, as expected... but when it publishes to .Mac, the next/previous buttons are really messed up, linking to articles/pages that are not even close to being near them in order. I've been able to determine that:
    a. Create three new entries in iWeb. Works good.
    b. Duplicate the middle entry, put it LAST in the order.
    c. The NEXT button on this new, last entry links to the third item, just as the original 2nd item did before I duplicated it.
    Is there any way to make iWeb re-calculate the next and previous buttons before you publish it? Or even better, any Apple folks around that can confirm/escalate this?
    UPDATE: It's also possible that iWeb is ordering the next and previous buttons based on the time the entry was created in iWeb, rather then the time specified on the entry. If you are porting older entries from a previous blog, this can be a pain because you're not necessarily putting entries in from oldest to newest.
    Either way - the behaviour isn't as expected: next and previous buttons ordered by the date specified in the iWeb 'Entries' window.
    3. This is more advanced, but seems a bug none the less. I use .Mac publishing, because it's integrated and easy. But I also have my down domain, which I have configured to just "forward" to my .Mac folder. So, when someone goes to www.mydomain.com, the server connects to web.mac.com/me/iWeb/ and makes the request, translating the path. This works really great (save some initial headaches with character encoding), but comments in iWeb blogs don't work when you do this.
    They work directly when you go directly to .Mac, but something about the comment system requires that the client browser accurately present the URL to the .Mac server, and in my case, it's reporting my domain name. As a result, when you click to add a comment, you get a "there has been an error" page and it dies.
    If this little annoyance could be fixed in a point release version of iWeb, that would be AMAZING.
    4. Lastly, one more wish for the future. .mac domain hosting. Domains aren't just for businesses - lots of people have them for their blog/photos/etc now. If I could make my domain point to my .Mac web hosting without any messy translation, I'd be in heaven. I don't even care if I only get my single e-mail address on the domain - just the hosting would be so excellent.
    MacBook Pro 1.83 Mac OS X (10.4.6)

    It sounds like it! I ported about 10 new posts from my old MovableType installation last night and am seeing the same behaviour - duplicating entries definately breaks the chronological order of next/previous.
    Apple?
    Is there a place I can file a formal bug report?

  • HT4059 Is there a reading list/wish list feature in iBooks to let me identify books for future purchase? Thanks!

    Since you don’t allow emails any more – I suspect because of the numerous complaints with your service and the way you treat people that you don’t want documented, I am calling and I want this call recorded for future reference.
    I have been a long time faithful customer of vzw and although the past year I have been late on payments many times and really couldn’t afford your exorbitant prices for services lots of other companies offer sometimes three times cheaper than what you charge, I have hung in there trying my best to meet my obligations.
    This month has been no exception. You don’t know the background; the whole story of people’s lives. I know you could care less because all you care about is the profit-the money that comes in.
    I was told when I agreed to pay my bill on the third per the recorded message that I had 14 days to pay…you cut me off anyway. The phones are not the tissue; your suspending my service means I cannot work. I may lose my job…how do you justify that? In any case? The least you could do would be to keep 4986 on and cut the phones off. But no. You refuse to compromise and meet the basic needs of your customer. What does that say about your company? I tried to call back on three separate occasions to tell you I couldn’t pay because of unexpected expenses but couldn’t get out of the automated system…sadly couldn’t get to a real person which also speaks volumes to me.
    All this tells me this is a company I don’t wish to be affiliated with any more. As soon as I can, I will discontinue service with you…I know you could care less. I will honor the remaining portion of the contract but that’s it. You don’t deserve my business. I am a good, hardworking person who, at the sacrifice of myself and my needs, always pays her bills…albeit late at times. I realize others tell you stories and lies to justify themselves. That’s not me. If you knew what I had been through the last 7 yrs you would marvel that I am  still on my feet…don’t judge too quickly. You could be wrong…and in my eyes you are by doing this to me.
    God will see us through this extremely scary time of that I have no doubt. No thanks to your company and lack of understanding and mercy. I am doing the best I can. Sadly you are not.
    See I have choices. MANY choices of providers for services you offer. I don’t have to be treated like this. I don’t have to succumb to your coldness and callousness. I intend to choose better (and cheaper). If your company doesn’t get the “people factor” back you will be sorry.

    Problem here is you admit you cannot afford the service.
    And you want to blame Verizon for losing a job because you have no cell phone.
    If your job depends on that phone I would pay it on time every time if you need a job to pay your bill.
    No other service is going to treat you any different. And if you cannot afford Verizon's monthly invoice how are you going to afford new devices, activation fees, possible security deposits on any other cellular carrier? You can't.
    Also if you made an arraignment to pay and then decide you cannot do so, why should Verizon extend you service or credit, or why is it you want to use the service and data and not pay for it as agreed.
    Get a prepay phone. Its evident the cost is too high for you to afford on post pay.
    Good Luck

  • Suggestion for future release

    Where should I post suggestions for future releases of SQL Developer or/and Data Modeler?
    Please give me a link.
    Thanx,
    Chris
    One suggestion for Data Modeler:
    In the "Model Properties" of a relational model, there should be a "scripts" folder like in the "Table Properties".
    In this script I'd like to generate some global statements for the DDL generation,
    for example:
    before (=begin of generated script): set define off; alter session set nls_numeric_characters='.,'; nls-config
    after (=end of generated script): commit; (when table inserts are used and no ddl-statement is following; otherwise you have to use 'commit' in each table-script; After the last table create (ddl-) statement there is no implicit 'commit')
    I know, that I can edit the generated script to add my statements, but if you often generate code there is a good change to forget to change the script afterwards.

  • Your "suggestions for future features" is broken??!!

    I really just wanted to leave you a suggestion for future features. Your system took me to a page that said i needed to be on the most recent version but alas I am! You even tell me so when I go to firefox.com! Hmmmm...... a little problem there.
    Regardless, here is the feature suggestion i wish to make:
    You've done a fine job of cleaning up the top bar in 4.0 to make the most of new widescreen displays so that we have more space for the page content vs. the browser stuff. The deal is, virtually all sites still use only about a third of the page width leaving tons of wasted space on a full screen view. Why don't you offer a way to move all the browser navigation, tabs, and tools wherever i prefer - like running vertically down the left or right side of the massively empty pages i see on my 24" monitor and even my little 11" laptop monitor?

  • Future of Swing Developement in JDeveloper 11g  ?

    The Swing part (in the preview) still is unfortunately far behind NetBeans (have a look at Version 6 M9 Matisse with JPA beans binding, not as good as ADF but...) and others, are there any plans to integrate Matisse and/or JSR 296 in the production release? Or is JSF the only technology on the gui layer that is pushed by Oracle in the future?
    What's with javaFX (F3)??
    best regards
    Charly

    Charly,
    this first 11g technology preview reflects the bulk of the features in the UI clients areas that will be available in the initial 11.1.1.0.0 release when it goes production. I agree that the JDK 6.0 GroupLayout layout manager made popular by NetBean's Project "Matisse" GUI builder is a very interesting one from a developer productivity point of view -- it dupliates some of the productive layout "guides" ideas I believe first seen in the Visual Studio 2005 Windows Forms designer. We have our eye on supporting it in a subsequent 11g release. However, that support unfortunately won't make the initial production release of 11g. We also support the JSR 296 and are following it for including support in a future release, too. Regarding JavaFX (F3), just as you are this week, we're getting our first real look at what it means. I assume if it becomes a popular option it will be something to support for future JDev releases as well. We have significant 2/3-tier Swing data binding features that should fit in nicely with JavaFX, but it's honestly too early to say what our plans are there.
    Of course we continue full support of our existing ADF Swing features (including the productive JGoodies FormLayout support we introduced in 10.1.3). We've added a few new interesting ADF Swing components as noted in the 11g "New Features" document, too, as well as rewritten the critically important ADF Business Components Browser testing tool using ADF Swing during this release as a showcase and testbed of ADF Swing functionality.
    While from the new features list you can see we've improved features in many major feature area, in the "UI Clients" area much of the UI-related features in this initial 11g release are out of necessity centered around the significant declarative application development requirements put to us by our Oracle Fusion Applications teams (who are building front-ends using JSF Rich Client). We have thousands of internal apps developers, many of whom have already begun using early builds of our 11g technology platform for development of their next generation of Oracle Fusion Applications.
    In this initial 11g release cycle, given these multitudinous requirements presented to us by our combined Oracle, Peoplesoft, Siebel, and JDEdwards teams, there was reduced bandwidth available for making significant enhancements to our other kinds of UI clients that we continue to support like Struts, ADF Swing, or Mobile clients.
    This definitely does not mean there are not enhancements queued up, waiting to be implemented in future releases in these areas. Only that the initial 11g release doesn't have an "explosion" of new features in those areas.

  • MDG Road Map for future release

    Can any one share the link for MDG Road map for future release. I am looking specifically at the enhancements for data domains.

    thank you for the answer!
    next year we plan to migrate our databases from 10g to 11g R2.
    the reason for R2 is that the second realease is a more stable version.
    best wishes,

  • Okay so I set up my Time Capsule already and is now backing up 2 of my iMacs. Works great. What I want to know is how to use the TC to directly store files? I want to do this to delete some files but still have them on the TC for future reference..

    Okay so I set up my Time Capsule already and is now backing up 2 of my iMacs. Works great. What I want to know is how to use the TC to directly store files? I want to do this to delete some files on iMac 20inch but still have them on the TC for future reference..eg some movies on iTunes. I want to directly save them on the drive so I can delete them from iTunes and gain some storage. (Ps on iMac 20 inch (it's almost full - 320 GB) when I enter time machine, a tab comes up on finder which reads "Time Machine backups" it's able to be ejected like a disc or a connected device. On the iMac 20 inch, I dragged some files onto there as if using it like a hard drive. Is this the correct method? Then I went to my 27inch iMac and saw the "Time Machine Backups" hoping to see the files I dragged from the 20inch iMac. But the files were not there except a folder that said "Backups.backupdb". Can someone help me?

    It's not a good idea to use a network disk for both Time Machine backups and other things.  By design Time Machine will eventually consume all the space on its output disk, which will then cause problem for your other files.  I'd store those other files on an external disk connected to the Time Capsule.  The problem with that is that Time Machine will only back up files that are local to your Mac.  That means that you'll only have one copy of the files on or attached to your Time Capsule.
    By the way, you've been misled by poor field labeling on this forum into typing a large part of your message into the field intended for the subject.  In the future just type a short summary of your post into that field and type the whole message into the field below that.

  • Setting up new macbook pro ,want to transfer music on existing Apple id and then set him up with a new one for future purchases ,can itunes play music from both accounts on one user account?

    Title says it all really,son has until now used our itunes account,in future will want to build up own but wants obviously to have access to past musuc/books etc.I was thinking authorise new macbook with existing apple id ,transfer music ,then set up new id for future,if he wants to play old music he will have to log in under old account.
    Also want to link to icloud but this will need to be the new id presumeably because you are not allowed to change the computer,does this mean it will only back up the stuff from new account?

    I have tried the method of authorizing my computer and then initiating transfer purchases method yet my purchases were not transfered. I was told Apple can put your purchases in a certain place for you to retrieve them in your I-tunes account.
    Is there any way you can help me with this problem?

  • How do I allow my users to set the option to save a new timezone for future sessions?

    The option to save a newly selected timezone for future sessions has been greyed-out
    in the Calendar Client. How can I allow my users to choose this option?
    <P>
    This is controlled by the settimezone setting on the Calendar Server. By
    default, it is set to FALSE. You can change the value to TRUE in the
    unison.ini settings. The
    Calendar Server must be restarted for the change to take effect.

    Hi,
    Based my research, OOB SharePoint don’t allow anonymous users to contribute contents(Edit, Upload and Add) into list and library.
    This is by design behavior, and it’s a consideration about security in order to help protect your site from potential script injection attacks.
    For anonymous users, only the View Item permission is available for libraries.
    If you want to know more about this, please refer to

  • HT4946 I need to print & back-up a series of abusive/threatening SMS (on iphone 5c) for my solicitor. Is there a way to do this which will show the time, date & sender info? How can I preserve (full) SMS data as evidence for future court proceedings?

    Does anyone know how to access sms text messages from iphone 5c backup from icloud or itunes? Apparently SMS can be restored so data I need must be stored in backup. I need to print a series of abusive/threatening SMS messages received on my iphone 5c from one sender. I need the time, date & whatever data is stored about source/sender of messages, as well as content. How can I access this data to create a chronological record of the abusive SMS messages and can I preserve the iphone's message log specifically-- so I can access records of these texts without having to restore a back-up? I need to do this to provide evidence for my solicitor and preserve that evidence for future court proceedings, thank you.

  • How to make a photo STAY in the assets panel for future use for In browser editing?

    How to make a photo STAY in the assets panel for future use for In browser editing?
    When I delete a photo from a page, it does not stay in the assets panel. My client uses in browser editing daily. Once a week he changes a photo just for a day, then needs the previous photo to replace it. The original photo is not in the asset panel (or folder) for him to choose.
    When you upload a photo, it has an arrow in the asset panel. How do you use this as an asset?

    Sure ... right mouse click on  your page and choose 'Exclude Page from Menus' :-)
