Yet another rm-1500 related question

Ive bought sound blaster 24bit external because i needed better sound quality on my laptop. And i was more than happy to get a remote to. But it appears that this little device has shortened my li've by 5 years Whole week i was trying to make it work. I have browsed google for hours. How to turn the device sleep (stand by) off!? Whenever it automaticaly goes to sleep mode, to use it again i have to sit for 2 min and press the buttons on remote rapidly til the thing starts to work. Mainly i've tried to control winamp, so i downloaded rmx, which is by no doubt good plugin. everything works fine except that frustrating stand by mode. Plz help.
PS all drivers updated.

Yet Another ASA VPN Licensing Question :)

I have a pretty good understanding of ASA VPN concepts, but not sure about this scenario. Two questions regarding 5525 VPN SSL Anyconnect Premium Licensing.
1. Assuming we already own a ASA 5525-x with 750 Anyconnect Essentials and Mobile ( p/n ASA5525VPN-EM750K9 ) and want the ability for 200 Clientless (Anyconnect Premium) VPN connections, including mobile devices, what part number do I need?
2. Assuming we do not yet own a ASA5525, but want the same 200 clientless VPN connections plus mobile device connectivity, what part number do I need? I'm assuming this is correct >> ASA5525VPN-PM250K9
Thanks!

It's no problem - I sometimes look for an answer to a question myself and find my own 2 year old post explaining the answer. As long as I don't find my 2 week old answer, I'm OK with that. :)
Anyhow, no there's not a SKU to upgrade Essentials to Premium. All the Premium upgrade SKUs are between Premium licensed user tiers (10-25, 25-50, 50-100 etc.).
If you're a persuasive customer and make a strong case with your reseller they may be able to get a deal with Cisco outside the normal channels to get some relief as a customer satisfaction issue. That's very much a case by case thing though and not the normal fulfillment method.

Yet another Applescript file renaming question...

Hi all,
Well, having been a full-time Applescripter for five years at Apple, I thought it would be easy to dust my chops off and write a simple script to get a file name from one folder and paste that name onto a file in another folder.... but I guess 15 years of no-scripting has proven too much of a challenge to my aging brain... and I am on a time crunch to get this done for my client.
SO, here is what I'm hoping to get help with. I have no doubt it is pretty simple.
File "A" is in a folder.
File "B" is in a different folder.
I need to GET the name of File A and use it to rename File B.
Can one of you youngin's take 30 seconds and help an old dude out?
Thanks a bunch,
matt

Niel... almost there.
The script works perfectly (with me placing the path instead of just the folder)... thank you so much.
One extra thing though... I didn't realize that the files are different file types (jpg and psd).
So what do I need to do to change the name without changing the file type?
THANKS again!
Matt

Yet another missing album art question...

OK, I just received my second 80 GB Apple ipod Classic. The first one was defective out of the box and this (these?) is (are?) my first ipod. I'd heard all the horror stories about itunes and since I have other media players, ripping and tagging utilities I'm happy with, I really have no intention of using itunes for anything more then updating my ipod and manually synching my music.
I do have one question though. How do I get album art to display for my music? First of all, I unchecked every option in itunes that I could find about updating missing data and downloading album art. I even unchecked the box under My ipod that says "show album art" (maybe mistakenly thinking that was referring to synching album art. All of my mp3's are tagged properly and have the album art, scanned by me from my actual discs embedded in the file in the album art tag. I would think these should display if the ipod is capable of displaying album art, regardless of any checkboxes I've fooled with in itunes but all I get on my ipod are little gray boxes with black musical note symbols in them.
What did I do wrong? Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks in advance.
Sicnerely,

That's indeed the reason your album art doesn't show on the iPod. Check this box, maybe resync, and the iPod should show the images you embedded in the mp3-files.

Btw, If you scan and add album art yourself a lot, you might want to have a look at this site :

Another EDGE discount related question

I am new to Verizon and got two phones under EDGE (moved from TMO). As soon as I moved, I started discovering confusions regarding the discount all over the Internet. Hence, I am hoping someone from Verizon would be kind enough to clear those confusions. Please help me here.
- Once my EDGE contract expires, does the monthly discount expire? In my case, I am supposed to get $25/line discount.
- If I pay out early, will I loose the discount? It doesn't make sense to lose it but I have read somewhere that this might happen.
- If I switch to another device but keep making EDGE payments, will I lose the discount? Again, no clear answer anywhere.
Thanks in advance.

Thank you for your response RushFan2112. I was told otherwise by a rep via chat: "The only way to keep getting discount is having an EDGE agreement".
I moved to Verizon recently but having difficulty locating any sort of information of this kind. Does any Verizon employee actually know how the whole discount thing works? I know it is not reasonable to expect any answer from them in this forum. At least they can update their website with relevant information. It seems like they are trying to hide something. Even AT&T has more transparency regarding their NEXT program.
Not happy at all.

Yet another "font not available" question

Hello,
First, I'm using FM 8.1.3 on Windows (XP). So I don't have the Font Pod or any of that other FM 10 good stuff.
I'm trying to open a chapter in a book that contains both English and Simplified Chinese text. The error I keep getting says that "MS Mincho" is not available, and a Kazuka Gothic font is being substituted. I click OK and the file opens. I save and close the file. Then I try to open it again and the error is still there. All of the chapters in the book have the same problem.
I saved one of the chapters as a .mif and opened that as a text file. I searched for "Mincho", and it wasn't there. I searched for "FFamily" in the file and didn't find anything similar to Mincho in any of the references. There were many entries but no unfamiliar fonts being referenced.
I also tried the trick of opening all the files, accepting the substitution for each, and then trying to update the book. That doesn't seem to work. The update is finished much too quickly. Something flashes by really quickly in the status bar of the book file - I thought I saw titles of a couple of the chapters (different title each time I ran the update), but (1) the book file does not have a new time stamp, even if I do something that should trigger a change to the book file, eg, change the order of a couple of chapters in the book file, and (2) there's no error message. I don't think it actually did an update. (When I try to update the book with all the chapter files closed, I'm still getting the "could not open file because of missing font" errors.)
Are there any other things I might try?
Thanks,
Joyce

Joyce,
You have your preferences set to Remember missing fonts. When you open a file with missing fonts, FrameMaker warns you; but when you click OK, it opens the file with the substituted font just to display the document. FrameMaker does NOT substitute the font permanently, just for the current display. If you make a change and save the file, you are saving any content changes but not the font substitution.
If you are happy with the substituted font, you can open the preferences and uncheck Remember missing fonts. Then when you open the file, FrameMaker's response is as before; however, when you save the file, the font substitution is saved in the file.
You can then turn Remember missing fonts back on, if you want. The purpose of this feature is to allow you or others to edit the document without actually having the font on your system but retain the font information in the file.

Another keyboard Finder related question!

My keyboard stopped working in Finder last week.
I see a number of other discussions were going about this but either thier problem was not the same as mine or the solutions given were not available to me, such as rebooting from a disc.

Safe Boot , (holding Shift key down at bootup), use Disk Utility from there to Repair Permissions, test if things work OK in Safe Mode.
Then move these files to the Desktop...
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.finder.plist
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.systempreferences.plist
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.desktop.plist
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.recentitems.plist
Reboot & test.
PS. Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.

Yet another grey folder thread, help!

Sorry for yet another grey folder thread, but here goes:
Today, earlier, installed Firefox update, along with some addon updates for that program. Quit Firefox and attempt to relaunch, relaunch fails. Reset computer, thinking that will do the trick, I now have grey folder with question mark.
Resolve attempts: reset pram = fail; apple care cd = will not launch/fail; disk utility from original install disks = fail; cannot get repair of disk or permissions to work, continually get error about "failing on exit"; safe mode launch = fail
So, I've done everything, and I've come to conclusion that I am f***, and my HDD is fried (but I hope I am wrong).
So, dear gurus, my question(s)
A) Is my HDD salvageable at all? is there some trick to getting the AppleCare cd to work? Anything?!?!
if not, then B) How can I recover my documents/music/pictures? Long story short, there are several things on there that never had a chance to make my back up schedule, and I desperately want to keep them. Any way to make/copy a disk image to save the docs/imgs, or Firewire them to an external hdd? Do I need to consider a professional HDD rescue?

Looks like a mechanical failure, and Apple won't cover the replacement due to a drop it sustained a year or two ago (the power cable was in, and it fell on the connection point, denting that in, Apple states there is a critical board their and that it would be $950 Tier 3 repair which I can't afford). So I'm going to try a Firewire Migration and a few other things and see if that works. If not, oh well. Thanks everyone for the ideas!

Two related questions: ColdFusion 10/Java applications and J2EE supported servers

I have two related questions:
1. CF10 and integration with Java Web applications
We have a couple of Java applications running on JRun and interfacing with CF9 applications. The JRun clusters were created through the JRun Admin and, apart from lack of Axis 2.0 support, have served us well for years now. And, as would be the case, the ColdFusion9/Java/Flash application is a critical public-facing application that the business uses for bidding on projects.
It appears that with ColdFusion 10 on Tomcat, we will not be able to run those Java applications on a Tomcat-CF10 JVM cluster. Is this correct? IF so, what are our options?
2. J2EE Application Servers supported by Adobe for CF10
Which of these is correct?
A. This URL (http://www.adobe.com/products/coldfusion-enterprise/faq.html) states "ColdFusion 10 supports IBM® WebSphere, Oracle® WebLogic, Adobe JRun, Apache Tomcat, and JBoss."
B. This URL (http://wwwimages.adobe.com/www.adobe.com/content/dam/Adobe/en/products/coldfusion/pdfs/cf1 0/coldfusion10-support-matrix.pdf) states:
"J2EE application servers: WebLogic Server 10.3, 11.1, WebSphere Application Server 7, ND 7 JBoss 5.1, 6.0, 7.1.0"
I *think* "A" above is wrong re. support for Adobe JRun. It does not specify a version of Apache Tomcat unless it is simply referring to the custom version the comes with CF10.
Option "B" above shows no support of Adobe JRun or 'standard' Apache Tomcat.
Thanks,
Scott

Question 1 above was answered: "No support for Java web applications under CF10's custom version of Tomcat"
Question 2: No answer yet: Is Apache Tomcat (NOT Adobe's customized version) supported for CF10 J2EE deployment? I do not see any installation instructions on how to install CF10 on Apache Tomcat 6 or 7.
Is anybody using Apache Tomcat as their J2EE app servers and, again, NOT Adobe's customized/limited version?
Thanks,
Scott

Display hints, custom format method in VO, is there yet another way?

Did you experience the same and had a solution?
Hi,
I am using JDeveloper 10.1.3.4 and looking for yet another way of customizing the display of an attribute of a view object.
I have two tables: BILL and AWARDS, with composite foreign key relationship (on the LDAP_UID and TERM fields) between them, as illustrated below.
The BILL table:
NAME       LDAP_UID    TERM   CREDIT_HRS
Tom Smith tom.simth   200902       12.5
Jane Lopez jane.lopez 200906        4.0
The AWARD table:
LDAP_UID    TERM SOURCE     APPLIED
tom.smith 200902 Perkins     2000.00
tom.smith 200906 Direct      1300.00
jane.lopez 200906 CN           500.00 At the business data model level, this is master(Bill)/detail(Awards) relationship. Bill is dragged from the data control palette to the page and displayed as a form, and Awards is dragged to the page as a table. When tom.smith logs in and chooses the 200902 TERM, the master and detail are joined on tom.smith=tom.smith and 200902=200902, so the $2,000.00 of Perkins loan is retrieved for him:
Name Tom Smith
Term 200902
Source    Applied
Perkins   $2,000.00That works fine but not user friendly: the values in the TERMS column are a bit cryptic and need to be displayed in plain English, i.e., 200902 should be displayed as "Spring 2009" and 200906 as "Summer 2009". The display hints in the VO can not handle this. The only other way I know is writing a method in the Row class of the VO to do the translation. And this is the result:
Name Tom Smith
Term Spring 2009
Source        Applied
No rows yet   Obviously, "Spring 2009" is used not only for display, but also for joining the master and detail tables. Of course "Spring 2009"!=200902, therefore no detail is retrieved for the user.
Question is: is there yet another way to customize the display, that does not affect the join of master and detail tables?
Many thanks for your help!
Newman

Hi, Chris,
That works!
I found the chapter where transient attribute is explained and an example is given creating a transient attribute in the entity object. It turned out that transient attribute works both in entity object and view object. I did it in the VO and it solves my problem.
I spent hours of time before posting that question, trying two different ways but neither worked. Your one sentence saved me a lot of time. I do appreciate you help very much!
Truly,
Newman

Yet another MacBook Pro with display issues (NVdia chip)

Exactly one year and 1 week after purchase, my video controller started freaking out. So just 1 week out of warranty, my display started flickering, blinking, showing garbled clumps of pixels and got progressively worse over the last week until, now, it locks up and/or reboots after about 15 minutes of uptime.
I have:
- installed all updates, including firmware
- reset PRAM
- re-seated RAM
- replaced RAM
- used SMC FanControl to try and keep the GPU cool
- parked the MacBook in front of the fan/air conditioner in an attempt to keep the GPU cool
- ran the Hardware Test, which returned a faulty video controller
None of the above have had any positive effect whatsover.
I've dug through these forums and hunted around the rest of the net for more info. Every symptom points to the NVidia GeForce issue. It seemed to be heat related. Maybe it was at first (even though max temps were never over 180 F), but after just one more day it doesn't seem to matter anymore. The machine is just FUBAR.
Tomorrow, I'm taking it in to the Apple store for service. Everything I've read here tells me it'll be at $1,000 logic board replacement since I'm a week out of warranty. Needless to say, if I come home tomorrow with a $1,000 receipt AND no laptop I'm going to be pretty upset.
What really concerns me is that, if I have to get the logic board replaced, they'll just put in yet another faulty board with another NVdia chip that will do the same thing all over again. There has to be another option, short of just getting a new iMac or tower with an ATI card instead. What else can I do?

I'm pretty sure from observing these types of glitches that this is a hardware fault. I shall ring Apple on Monday and hopefully they can pick it up and sort it all out! Does anyone know roughly how long a turnaround is in the UK?
Yes, your video controller is toast. That's exactly how mine looked.
Just to make certain, run the Hardware Test:
- Put in DVD 1 that came with your MacBook Pro.
- Shut down
- Restart, holding the D key
- You'll be put into test mode, run the default test (no need to run the robust test at this stage)
I'm betting it will return a message that looks like: "4VDC/1/40000003: videocontroller"
If so, your logic board will have to be replaced.
The Apple Store I went to (Michigan Ave, Chicago) told me it would take 5-7 days. I'm not sure what UK times would be like, but I'd expect a little longer.
bikemonkey wrote:
Incidentally, people are saying that they've have logic boards and what not replaced only for the problem to reoccur. Does this mean nVidia haven't properly fixed the issue?
Correct. Nvidia hasn't done a thing about this (that I'm aware of), and Apple seems to be putting the same logic boards with the faulty Nvidia chips back in.
Until we see a new/refreshed line of MacBook Pro's, I think we're stuck.

Yet another case of new type[array] and parametrized type

I suppose this is an often asked question, to which I seem not to be able to find a simple answer. I know of the "incompatibility" of arrays and generics, and yet in such a seemingly simple case I run into a mystery, or a compiler bug. Look at this warning:
Set<Integer> C[];
foo/bar/some.java:1148: warning: [unchecked] unchecked conversion
found   : java.util.HashSet[]
required: java.util.Set<java.lang.Integer>[]
                C=new HashSet[H-L+1];So far so good, but precisely this *"Set<type>[]"* does not exists, does it? When I try to add a parametrized type to this new statement, compiler says:
Set<Integer> C[];
foo/bar/some.java:1148: generic array creation
                C=new HashSet<Integer>[H-L+1];
                  ^
1 errorIn a regular case we can easy deal with the "unchecked" warnings, e.g. Effective Java 2nd Ed, Item 24 discusses this, but all this seem to be ignoring this case. When generic array creation is not permitted, than why this warning stating that *"java.type<typeparam>[] required"* appear, and how to resolve this for safety and correctness? Of course, I can still ignore the warning and do a few instanceof checks and casts, like before, but I am really curious how to transfer this into the new paradigm.
As much generics improve and help in many cases, I regret their arcane complexity. To paraphrase C.A.R. Hoare, the Java language itself becomes now the problem, not its solution.
Thomas

I wonder if we have someplace recent measure just an array stack against a current implementation of a set in Java? In JDK1.4 I remember array was several times faster, 350% faster if my memory serves me, and I do have the classic "inner loop" operation, very repetitive. I can live with the warning, what's the problem?
Of course all this are considerations fully aside of the issue at hand, that the JDK1.6 compiler prints a nonsense warning message that a parametrized array is expected, what is in fact illegal in current implementation of generics. Which is in my eyes severely faulty, but that would be yet another assault on the Braha Ivory Tower, wouldn't it?

I just got a call today that I reached my 300GB limit for the month. I called and got a pretty rude response from the security and data usage department. The guy told me in so many words that if I do not like or agree with the policy that I should feel free to find another service provider.!!! I tried to explain that we watch Netflix and XFinity on-demand alot and I was told that that can not be anywhere close to the data usage. I checked my router and watching a "super HD, dolby 5.1" TV show on Netflix will average about 5-6 GB per hour (1.6MB/s) ... sp this means that I can only watch no more than 1-2 Super HD TV shows a day via Netflix before I run out of my data usage. This seems a bit redicilous doesn't it? Maybe the TV ads about the higher speed than the competition should be accompanied with "as long as you don't use it too often" Not a good experience ...

Another "get album artwork" question

another "get album artwork" question
I notice that when I click "get album artwork" it seems to go through the whole library and look for cover jpegs. (in my case, that's going to take a long time!)
here's my question: it's looking for artwork, yes, but it's NOT going to do anyything to the many, many albums for which I have already (manually) added artwork, is it? If it does - I am in trouble! Please, somebody, reassure me that the artwork I have painstakingly added manually to zillions of albums is safe!

Updade...
So, as another test, I uninstalled iTunes, then checked the hard drive again.
All the icons have now turned into Quicktime icons, which leads me to believe that when you look at your music in finder, it shows the icons related to your default music player.
So, my next step is to find a new default player, and maybe my album covers will show up again.

Slow DSL (Yet another one....)

I have been in contact with Verizon (via off shore support on their 'tech support line') over the past few months and I have YET to get this issue resolved. Since mid-summer 2010 I have been getting 1.6 meg or so speeds on my 3meg DSL line. Prior to that period I was getting 2.5 meg +. I have called in numerous times and I keep getting told they will perform a line test.... Well, the line is FINE it's my download speed that's hosed. My upload is the correct speed of 728 but for some reason my download speed has been slashed from 2.5 to ~1.5.
Verizon even sent me a new modem as my old westtel was from 2001 and it had no better, (perhaps even slightly slower!!!), speed results on JUST the download side.
Other Verizon DSL users suggest that there is some sort of bandwidth throttling or "error correcting" processes that can cause this sort of thing. I live right around 6,000ft or so from the switching station so I'm WELL within range to get the full benefit from my speed. No lines have changed inside the house in years, yet there is a decrease in speed none the less. I have tried various speed test sites, various combinations of network hardware between the PC and the router and nothing helps.
To make matters worse I called in last week and spoke to another off shore "tech" (script reader more like it), and after cutting him off from trying to walk me through a ton of useless steps that I've gone through about 4 dozen times already and telling him NOT to send out yet ANOTHER modem, had this gentleman tell me that he needed to work with the local dispatch center but it was closed. He arranged to call back the next day between 5 and 7 PM EST with them on the phone to further trouble shoot and get the problem solved. Fine. However, next day, I didn't receive a call back until almost 8:45PM .... AND he started the call off by asking, "So is your problem resolved?" ...... I promptly, and with as much patience as I could muster, told him, "Um, not unless you have done something to FIX it in the time since I last spoke to you..." ... To which he responded by starting the ENTIRE trouble shooting process over again and wanting to run a LINE TEST (which would have raised the count on JUST this one ticket to like 5 or 6!). I cut him off and told him we'd already DONE all that and he was SUPPOSED to call me back at 5:00 not 8:00 with someone from the dispatch so we could sort the problem out! He then told me the dispatch was closed and he'd have to call me back the next day between 3:00 and 5:00 PM EST with a supervisor tech on the line to help diagnose the issue.... That was last Friday... A week later and I still haven't heard from Verizon support.... So first time he was 3hours and 45 minutes late, the second time he was over a WEEK late!
At this point I'm fed up, yet I'm hoping that by posting this here someone MAY be able to help me and FINALLY restore my 3Meg DSL to it's former speed.

I have a LinkSys WRT 310N router between my internal network and the router or I'd pull you the transponder data. As for the other info you asked for: It's a Westel modem, and it's Windows 7 x64... Though every system in my home has the same speed results regardless of OS. Even if I remove the router and connect using the built in PPPoE connection in Windows I get the same speeds, so it's not OS or router related. The modem is a new modem, my old Westtel Wirespeed gave exactly the same results as the brand new westtel modem, so it's not the modem either unless BOTH are bad.
****EDIT****
I found a transponder log I'd taken when I first got the new westtel setup and posted on another forum:
Transceiver Revision: 3.3.6.10.0.1
Vendor ID Code: 4D54
Line Mode: ADSL_2plus
Data Path: Interleaved
DSL Speed: 2112 down and 860 Up
Margin (dB): 12.0 and 10.3
Line Attenuation (dB): 33.1 and 15.0
Transmit Power (dBm): 17.9 and 12.2
