I have an iPhone 7 Plus and a Macbook Pro 15" 2014. I was trying to make calls from Facetime Audio on Mac from my iPhone. My Apple ID was asked on Facetime on Mac. I entered my details and it told me that your account has been locked due to security reasons. So please enter the answer to your security questions which I don't remember. I entered twice and it greyed out this option of security questions. Now the only thing I was left with was to email myself (through Apple) the reset link so as to reset the password. But here's the bad thing that happened to me: The email that I was using with iCloud and Apple ID was my previous employers email and since I left the job, I couldn't access it anymore. So I couldn't get the reset link. Same thing happened with me on both iOS and Macbook.  Now I can't have iCloud sync between both these devices, can't download anything from the appstores on both the devices. I tried signing out of iCloud on my iPhone (and on Mac) but since my Find my iPhone(Find my Mac on Mac) was ON, it didn't let me sign out. I backed up my iPhone and tried erasing all my iPhone so that I could log in with some new Apple ID but since FInd my iPhone was ON, I couldn't erase my device either. Also tried restoring through iTunes, but all in vain since Find my iPhone was ON.  What should I do now? My Macbook and my iPhone are my primary devices and I can't live without iCloud syncing on.
I bought a used iPhone 4.  The previous owner re-set the phone, but did not remove the device from their iCloud.  It is asking me for their iCloud information when I try to set-up the phone.  I don't have contact with the previous owner anymore.  Is there a way to remove the device from their iCloud so I can use a new one?
Assign default keyboard language per-application Is it possible to assign default keyboard language for specific applications? I know that there is an option to always start an application with a default keyboard language but this is not what I want.  I'm looking for something similar to "fixed workspaces" which you can set using CompizConfig (You set Chrome to always open at X1Y1, terminal at X2Y1 etc). Something where I would set Chrome: Czech, terminal: English, Spotify: English, ... Prepend phone numbers with a calling card dial in number I've been looking for the name of a sci-fi romance book about space travel but haven't been successful so far. I came across it a few years ago, read the plot on its back cover but didn't read the book. It is about two spacecraft pilots, a man and a woman, who travelled at light speed (or maybe FTL, I can't remember) in separate ships. Every time they return to Earth, centuries have passed on Earth because of time dilation. They meet each other for a few times on Earth in different eras, but don't know when, if ever, they will meet again. I don't know how it ends.   If anyone knows which book I'm talking about, could you please tell me the name? Thanks a lot! Does $x^2 - y^2 = 12345678$ (x,y are integers) have any solutions? This question appeared in KVPY online exam held on Nov 5. This equation is the equation of a hyperbola so any solution must be of the form $a\sec(k),a\tan(k)$. So no solutions. Never delete entries? Good idea? Usual? Getting an error while trying to script it, specifically "Cannot use VB for services."  Snippet and VB code block as follows:  Raw block (works within ArcMap): "\ftp\raw\YYYYMMDD\Files\Charles" +[NAME]+".ntf"  Snippet:      date = '"20160207"'      arcpy.CalculateField_management(outShp, "Link", '"\\\\ftp\\raw\\"' + date + '"files"' + "[NAME]"+ '".shp"', "VB", "")   Not sure what the issue is, somehow need to be able to insert the date and have it syntactically be correct (in either VB or python).  I didn't explain very well I have a column that contains a portion that is part of the hyperlink, so need to concatenate A column to the end of B column (with the partial path) to complete the link I have found that many USB wall chargers use a resistive voltage divider to set the D+ and D- pins to a specific voltage, usually between 2 and 3 volts.  Other USB wall chargers short the D+ and D- pins together with no connection to anything else.  From my experience some devices will not accept a charge rate above 500mA on the chargers using the voltage dividers, but will charge up to their max input on a charger with the data pins shorted. I have read things that suggest the opposite may be true as well, but have been unable to verify this. I am hoping to figure out which method provides the best compatibility with all USB devices. When typesetting URLs in LaTeX using the url package, they are set in a mono space font by default. While I just accepted that as a fact for a long time, I am now starting to wonder why?  In Browsers, for example, the URL in the address bar is also not monospace. It does not make the link more readable, in my opinion rather on the contrary. The only explanation I can come up with is that it sets the link apart from the remeaining text. But honestly, even that sometimes looks a bit obstrusive.  So is the reasons really just to set links apart from the text? Remove OTA downloaded (but not installed) iOS 8 I've downloaded the new iOS 8 update on my iPhone 5 but am getting second thoughts about actually installing it.  Is there a way for me to delete that download or am I at the point of no return? Prove that $\mathrm E\left({\max}\left\{X^2 , Y^2\right\} \right) \leq 1 + \sqrt{1 - \rho^2}$ where $\rho$ is their correlation. What do I if I used "Reset All" or "Erase All Content and Settings" on a jailbroken iOS Device? I recently received an iOS device and it was jailbroken. When I wanted to unjailbreak it, I used "Erase All Content and Settings." The loading screen came on and it has not changed. After rebooting the device, it is now stuck at the Apple logo. What should I do? I'm interested: What is C#'s analog of std::pair in C++? I found System.Web.UI.Pair class, but I'd prefer something template-based.  Thank you! Story about a deadly alien creature on another planet that has some chemical in its body that makes it faster I can not remember if it was a short story or a novel, but I am leaning towards it being a novel. There is a colony of humans and I can't remember if they crash-landed or not.   There is a creature that they come to discover after it has killed a few people. The creature has some kind of chemical in its body that is like a super-adrenaline. One part is I remember is one of these creatures getting very hot from using up its reserve of this chemical and it dived into a river or pond and it started to steam. Something like that.  It has to be at least 10 years since I read the story. I need to prove that $H$ is a maximal normal subgroup of $G$ if and only if $G/H$ is simple.  My proof to the $(\Rightarrow)$ direction seems too much trivial:  Let us assume there exist $A$ so that $A/H\lhd G/H$. Then by definion, $H$ must be normal in $A$. Because $H$ is maximal, we get $H=A$ and therefore $A/H={1}$  Is it correct?  Update:  Now I see that I need to prove that not only $A\lhd H$ but also $A\lhd G$. Assumig I have proven that, is the proof correct? In email applications should the text of the cover letter be stated directly in the email or be attached in a separate file? $\gcd(a,b)=1, x^a = y^b\Rightarrow x = n^b$, $ y = n^a$ for an integer $n$. If $ a$, $ b$, $ x$, $ y$ are integers greater than $1$ such that $ a$ and $ b$ have no common factor except $1$ and $ x^a = y^b$ show that $ x = n^b$, $ y = n^a$ for some integer $ n$ greater than $1$.  I started this way: $x^a=y^b$ $=&gt;$ $x=y^{b/a}=(y^{1/a})^b$. Thus $x$ is an integer, and so is $y^{1/a}$, so $y=n^a$ for some integer $n$ greater than $1$. Then from the given relation, we get $x=n^b$.   I am not very convinced with my solution, as I feel I did some mistake. Can anyone point out where the mistake is? Any other solution is also welcome :) Proof by induction on a rooted tree with even number of vertices Let $T = (V, E)$ be a rooted tree with an even number of vertices. Prove by induction that there exists a set of edges $S \subseteq E$ such that every $v \in V$ is incident with an odd number of edges in $S$.  I was wondering if my argument is sufficient to prove the statement above:  Base case: $|V|=2$, there is only 1 edge and both vertices are incident with 1 edge $-&gt;$ $S \subseteq E$.  Inductive step:  Let $|V|&gt;2$, implying that $T$ has at least 2 external vertices. Let us choose two arbitrary external vertices $w,u \in V$. Such vertices are only incident to 1 edge each, $e_w$ and $e_u$. We can say that $e_w,e_u \in S$.   By induction, there exists a set $S$ in $T'=T-\{w,u\}=(V',E')$ such that every $v \in V'$ is incident with an odd number of edges in $S$ because removing 2 vertices from a tree with an even number of vertices maintains the property $|V|=2n$. When I learned about the Minkowski Space and it's coordinates, it was explained such that the metric turns out to be $$ ds^{2} = -(c^{2}dx^{0})^{2} +(dx^{1})^{2} + (dx^{2})^{2} + (dx^{3})^{2}   $$ where $ x^0,x^1,x^2,x^3 $ come from $ x^{\mu} : \mu = 0,1,2,3 $, and $ c $ is the speed of light. The first resource I had access to--I have to do a bit of digging for the exact paper--of course addressed that this invariant takes the tensor form: $$ ds^2 = g_{\mu \nu}dx^{\mu}dx^{\nu} $$ as well. This two things I've seen in all of my texts and online resources regarding resources. The element in question that varies between authors, is the time coordinate, $ x^0 $. When it was first explained to me, it was using the standard Cartesian representation for the spatial portion of the coordinates, and the time coordinate was labeled as $ x^0 = ict $. Squaring gives $ (x^0)^2 = -c^2t^2 $, and applying differential calculus, we get $ (dx^0)^2 = -c^2dt^2 $. Sensible and expected to have the tensor formula spit out the Minkowski Metric. The author then later explicitly states the coordinates are $ x^0 = ict, x^1=x,x^2=y,$ and $x^3 = z$.  My questions is then, why is it most authors on the subject omit the imaginary unit on the time coordinate? For example, .   The only reason I can fathom omission is if the author is using metric signature $ [+,-,-,-] $, where I started off learning the theory with signature $ [-,+,+,+] $ which may be the reason seeing the time coord with no imaginary unit seems dissonant to me. All help appreciated!  Edit: After reading the other answers, my questions is now one of why and how (mathematically) do we obtain the Minkowski Metric Signature. More specifically the one element with a different sign. Stringification of a macro value This is Ubuntu server 10.04 64 and samba 3.4.7.  I have a shared directory /home/mit/share and another one /home/temp that I link into the shared one:  ln -s /home/temp /home/mit/share/temp   But on windows, after using internet, I cannot open S:/temp, but on Linux it is possible to access /home/mit/share/temp like expected.   This works if I link directories inside /home/mit/share/temp, so I guess samba is restricting to jump with a link outside/above the shared directory.   EDIT:  See also this question titled .  It seems best to put unix extensions = no into the global section and follow symlinks = yes and wide links = yes only into the shares section, where you really need it.  The unix extension flag has to live in the global section and not in the individual shares sections. But for security reasons it is better to use the other options only where you need it, and not globally.
