ASUS P505: Problem Sending Files via Bluetooth

I've been wondering why I cannot send a file via Bluetooth from my ASUS P505 -- the built-in File Explorer just cannot find any other recipient but an infrared device. I don't think there is a problem with the hardware because I regularly use my Bluetooth GPS receiver and the Bluetooth headset.

I came across this thread on PDAMobiz.com (in Thai) and it confirms that someone using ASUS P505 is having the same problem.

I continued to Google and found this thread on PDAPhoneHome.com that mentions about Resco Explorer 2005. I've known for a while that Resco Explorer supports "send to Bluetooth recipients" but never compared it with the built-in File Explorer.

So...I tried Resco Explorer 2005 right away, and "it works!!"

If you own an ASUS P505 Pocket PC phone and have problem sending a file via Bluetooth like me, let's try Resco Explorer 2005.

For reference, the ROM version of my ASUS P505 is V3.15.73 WWE, and the Radio firmware is V4.5.0.

iTunes: Error 261 while Burning Data CDs/DVDs

Apple Discussions: 261 error while burning MP3 CD. I usually put an aphostrophe (') in the name of playlists and was having error 261 burning CD/DVD data discs since iTunes 5.1. Upgrading to iTunes 6.0 for Windows doesn't help. I was burning a music DVD this morning and had Error 261 again. So I went to Apple iTunes Discussions site and look for a thread on this. Viola! There are many people having the same problem as mine. The thread ends at a point where someone removing ampersands, the '&' symbols, from their playlists and could avoid this error. I tried removing aphostrophes from the name of my playlist because aphostrophe falls into the kind of non-alphabet characters that needs escaping in some programming languages. It works!!

Microsoft Office Outlook Connector 12.1 Beta 2 Crashes Thai Language Input in Outlook 2007

It's been more than a year since I last blogged. I've been busy with work and also don't know what to blog. Here comes my new findings: Microsoft Office Outlook Connector 12.1 Beta 2 + Outlook 2007 + Thai Language Input = CRASH This has also been proven here . I downloaded the Outlook Connector the other night for improved supports to Windows Live Hotmail -- only to find that whenever I start typing e-mails in Thai, i.e., hit the "language switch" key Outlook simply crashes! I googled for " outlook 2007 crash language switch " this morning and find someone having the same Outlook Connector insta.led and the same problem as mine. So, Outlook Connector is most likely the cause of trouble. I uninstalled Outlook Connector this morning and, yes, typing in Thai doesn't crash Outlook 2007 anymore!

MPICH2: mpdboot failure due to conflicting /etc/hosts entry

One single line in the /etc/hosts file on my Ubuntu Linux machine wasted my precious whole afternoon. I had some assumptions about the cause of this problem but I don't want to spend too much time investigating on what really caused the trouble. Anyway, here are the listings of what worked and what didn't: /etc/hostname ubuntu mpd.hosts.cluster master worker-01 Bad /etc/hosts 127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.localdomain ubuntu 192.168.200.128 master 192.168.200.129 worker-01 Result thitiv@ubuntu:~$ mpdboot -n 2 -f mpd.hosts.cluster thitiv@master's password: mpdboot_ubuntu (handle_mpd_output 359): failed to ping mpd on master; recvd output={} Good /etc/hosts 127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.localdomain 192.168.200.128 ubuntu master 192.168.200.129 worker-01 Result thitiv@ubuntu:~$ mpdboot -n 2 -f mpd.hosts.cluster thitiv@worker-01's password: thitiv@ubuntu:~$ At this point, with the /etc/hosts now fixed, the MPICH2 cluster could be booted up successfully. I don't want t...
