Today - 40 years - the first cell phone call was made by Martin Cooper of Motorola using what yould become the Motorola DynaTAC 8000 x.

Weight - 2.5 lbs

Cost - about $4000.

Heres another 40.

Can you imagine saying one of those people holding the phone/anchor in 40 years, he would be carrying a device that weighed a couple of ounces and had more computing power than the first lunar module? I have now, imagine what will bring the next 40 years.

  • Need to find password for WI FI access for the new cell phone

    I bought myself a new smart phone, the 1st step is to connect to my Wi Fi based computer, I need to enter a password on the phone to connect to my WiFi.

    I do not know the password, with a quick search I find instructions how to find the password.  (Step 1) click icon Mac HD 2) click on requests

    (3) locate and double-click connection Linksys icon I do not have this icon, I searched my applications and you do not have it.  So I can't finish the 1st stage

    to set up my new smart phone.  What should I do?  Do I have to download this app?

    Not sure what you mean by 'computer based Wi Fi' so what follows cannot help. However, if you have a router Wi - Fi and your Mac is connected then see the following:

    Open Keychain Access on Mac (you can find that by using the Spotlight - control space research), click System in the sidebar and then click passwords in the sidebar, double-click the name of the wi - fi router, click on the box in front to show the password, enter login password of your Mac for your username if you are prompted.

  • Geocoding takes VERY long for the first call in each session

    Hello

    We are moving to a system of very short response time where the user sends a query via mobile phone to our based Oracle server and the response THAT SMS must return a list of points of interest at a certain distance from the mobile phone.

    Previously we were using Oracle 9i, now we went to 10g (EE 10.2.0.4.0). Given that 10g supports geocoding out of the box, we intend to use it. What we are experiencing, this is when we create a new session, and then the first geocoding/reverse_geocode call takes about 1 minute in our test environment (that means 100% CPU load on the side of Oracle Server), the following calls are in the [http://0.1.. 0.6] second intervals. We only use sdo_gcdr.reverse_geocode () and sdo_gcdr.geocode () procedures.

    In a space book, we found:
    + "Note: the first call to a function of geolocation in a session requires several time (is longer) than subsequent calls." +
    "+ Is because the function must load and analyze arrays of profile". +

    Profile of tables do not change, why is he not analyzed at the start of the RDBMS and only once, not for each session?

    Is there a solution?

    The patch that I suggest is precisely to allow the geocoder to work effectively in many countries. Its effect is to only load the profile for the country being geocoded. If profiles are loaded progressively as needed, avoiding the High overload at the beginning. With this patch, the first geocode a meeting is second.

    The time you specify (a minute for the first geocoded in a session) clearly indicate a problem. If this problem is not with bad indexes on the table of the region, you can check the box caching (CACHED_ADMIN_AREA_LEVEL in GC_COUNTRY_PROFILE should be 0).

    I think yiou need to capture a complete SQL trace of this first geocoded, so we can diagnose accurately what is happening.

  • MacPro is impossible to call to PC machine for the first time

    I have the fllowing problem:

    I have two computers a MacPro machine another machine and PC. I use Adobe video Sample Application for testing of Stratus. When I run the application for the first time on both machines and try to make a call from Mac to PC, nothing happens. PC receives no notification call. However, when the PC tries to make a call to the MacPro machine, everything's fine.

    There is one exception:

    MacPro machine can make a call to the PC machine with the following condition

    1 - PC has already appealed a PC to MacPro.

    Therefore, if the PC has already appealed to MacPro, then after puts end the call (from anyside), MacPro can call PC and all is well.

    Can you get it someone please let me know why, for the first time, MacPro is impossible to call the PC machine?

    Thanks in advance.

    Simply allow the 1024-65535 UDP ports, UDP not all necessarily.

    This is not necessary if your NAT supported through, or if the PC was not behind the NAT as well as other computers you want to talk or if there is no NAT.

  • Is there a way to test for the first call of a function?

    Hello

    I created a function (using other functions I created) to generate a dynamic hierarchy tree menu based on parentID and itemID etc etc - I'm sure you are familiar with this concept. It works very well, and there is no problem.

    However, I do all this build in a string, and then dumped on the page. Again, this works very well. However, because the function is called recursively, my class, the class = 'tree' repeat itself in each occurrence of the opening UL tag.

    I want to only this class to be applied to the first UL, but because it is recursive, I don't know how to detect if the function is called for the first time or 5th time, etc.. I mean something like:

    < cfif myFunction is called the first time >
    Add the class
    < cfelse >
    do not add the class
    < / cfif >

    Please see my attached code. It is fully functional. Please don't worry that all the other functions do etc, they work very well, but I need a way or a variable to test against.

    Any ideas?

    Thank you very much
    Michael.

    Yes, it's simple, you test the Boolean value and it will be true if it is
    set to true for a recursion.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones how do I set up voice mail for the first time?

    I'm going to lose my mind.  I think not (even in the manual) for simple instructions on how to set up voicemail for my husband on the BB 8800.  There are all sorts of questions and answers on the voicemail, but I just need to know how to set up for the first time.  The message you get when you call the phone is "this user has not yet established by voice mail" (or something to that effect).

    Help, please!

    It's simple in Act! Go to the call log -> click on Menu , then select Options -> voice mail. In the access number put your carriers voicemail mailbox number. Some carrier requires your password which you can also put in the.

  • Turn on iPhone 5 s for the first time?

    Hello

    I just bought all new iPhone 5 S in a shop and after I searched (google) answers with regard to the maintenance of the battery, I'm a bit confused. Some say it is wise to drain the battery until the phone turns off and that completely... some people say that is nonsense so that you must charge your phone charge straigh away from the box and don't let not phone to turn off... some are mentioning the procedure 3 hours but I know it's nonsense...

    Can you tell which procedure is best for the first time.

    Thank you very much.

  • Photo PhotoSmart 7520 tray is blocked when I try to print photo 4 x 6 for the first time.

    I just bought this 7520 and installed the software; then when I tried to print a picture for the first time, I kept getting the error message that the photo tray is locked (will not travel to bottom to pick up the blank photo paper) even if no clogging. The call centre could not solve the problem, and they ship me a replacement printer; but I suspect that this may be a common problem.

    I searched the post, and someone else had the same problem.  The solution is that the tab on the slide of paper size was outside the slide area.  I fixed it, and the printer now prints pictures.

  • Script not running corrextly for the first time

    Hello

    I have a strange problem.

    Always wenn first time (after the opening of tiara), I run my script, it doesn't work for the masses. Creating a report specifically does not.

    When I run the script for the second time (and each additional hour) everything works fine and correctly?

    To understand:

    -I'm doing some (mathemtical) analyze - still works correctly

    -Load / Append ReportLayout prepared, add curves, create text objects - does not work for the first time, then it alwas works correctly

    The error is, that all the curves (that should be in several Annex layouts and text objects) are added to the first sheet of report responsible (although the reportsheets have been added)

    As I said, when I run the script second time (and each additional hour) everything works as it should?

    Thank you

    Hello

    I think I solved the problem by myself.

    I inserted "Call PicUpdate" between the two as an interim step, and now it works fine (even running the script first time)

  • How can I recover my pc for the first time that I bought?

    Hello
    How can I recover my pc for the first time that I bought? because my pc is so slow... I have a compaq laptop cq61... and I want to set up the first time... How can I?  I don't have a recovery disk because when I bought it dosnt have a recovery in it disc. Please help me. Thank you

    Hello

    I'm happy to help you

    Glancing at the screen shot you posted, your looks of partition fine recovery (recovery (D).

    Save your files on an external hard drive or flash drive (depending on how many you have).

    Once that is done, disconnect all connected to your PC, but the AC adapter.

    Start the PC and the HP welcome screen, press the F11 key to start the Recovery dialog box and follow the prompts.

    It should take 15 to 30 minutes and your PC needs to be restored to its factory settings.

    Then just reinstall all programs and files that does not come with the PC.

    You will need the files or the installation of program diskettes. You cannot back up installed programs and reinstall them using a backup.

  • When you get a retailer to re - install Vista are you able to burn a copy of Vista as when he was the first new and turned on for the first time?

    Hello and Merry Christmas to all. Sorry its been a while that I had time to be on the forum, (family illness) Anywho my daughter had dropped her Lenovo and although we went through every conceiveable options to retrieve and detaches from the dreaded "black screen" we couldn't. We had the chance to recover his files before he died forever! That was the good part... I had to resume at Tiger Direct, where they installed a new concert 320 H/D and re-installed Vista. Because she graduated she had two of the residence and turned my basement into a hoarders paradise, lol point being that she has no idea where his original disk is so I contacted Lenovo who assured me that they would send me a copy of Vista (how naïve of me) they me sent recovery disc (two games not less and it took more than a month!) that I discovered after the fact that I could have burned my own through Neo-Smart...

    There is one thing that still bothers me and that's when we first pulled his new Lap Top for the first time and installed Vista I remembered that the very last paragraph said to make your own copy of the o/s before your done... what was not done! Is it still possible to make a copy of its operating system now? If Yes, how would go about this, if I wait for her to do it, it will not! She was lucky that I was able to use a slave to its hard disk of my XP Sata-IDE cable and get its files on the drive before it me locked. It has an external H/D as most of the people who do not know how to change their scores on the top of their Tower and get the full use out of them as desk top users do.

    As aways thanks for the fellow forumer for your time and trouble and any help is appreciated.

    Hey tiggerer

    NeoSmart is software startup repair not a recovery disk to reinstall vista

    and once you have replaced your hard disk you have lost the ability to do the recovery disk from the recovery partition that may have been defective hard disk

    and it depends on your version of vista as to whether you can now make a backup complete pc using microsoft software

    you need vista business or vista ultimate to backup full pc

    read information from microsoft about it at the link below microsoft

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/back-up-your-programs-system-settings-and-files

    If you have not these versions vista expect from lenovo recovery disks be delivered or buy a third party program to do a full backup pc

    one of these programs is the true picture in the link below

  • Get the string invalid Base64 of image of toDataURL() for the first time in 10 of blackberry webworks

    Hello

    I need to get the Contact image converted to string Base64 using BB 10 Webworks (blackberry.pim.contacts) I get only the contact.photos [0] .smallFilePath which returns the path to the phonebook file.

    Now, I want to get the image of this path and convert it to a Base64 string.

    Here's the javascript code :

    var img = document.createElement ('Image');
    var canvas = document.createElement ('Canvas');

    function getBase64Image (p) {}
    img.setAttribute ("src", p);

    Img.width = Canvas.Width;

    Canvas.height = img.height;

    CTX var = canvas.getContext ("2d");
    ctx.drawImage (img, 0, 0);
    Return canvas.toDataURL("image/jpg");

    }

    This means bad Base64 string of image for the first time. When I convert this string to the image it displays white screen. But returns a string in the Mithraeum and after conversion, display a correct image.

    I use Blackberry Z10 (OS 10) for the test.

    I think that the canvas is not drawing image properly for the first time.

    I have searched and tried many things, but not got success. What will be the solution.

    Thanks in advance.

    My guess is that the image did not load the source completely still. Setting the src / image loading is an asynchronous event, which means that your code will continue to the next line regardless of whether the image has loaded yet or not.

    After calling setAttribute instead of execute the code of the Web, you will probably need define an event on img for the load event listener. Once the image is loaded, you can then use the img with canvas variable to retrieve its data.

    Note that getBase64 will return immediately, so you may need to develop some sort of mechanism to wait before returning, or the asynchronous approach and integrate reminders for the success trigger the next piece of code.
