Solution : restore iphone 4 error 1013 and 1611

Ref: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2655717&tstart=0 , Peru

Remove the line that has gs.apple.com completely and save host file on your host system.


Please use the following the instructions depending on your system

On Mac:

* Open Finder
* Hold down COMMAND + SHIFT keys and press 'G'
* Enter "/private/etc/" in the field and press "Go"
* Find "hosts" file in the directory
* Drag the file to your desktop
* Open it in text editor
* Remove the line that has gs.apple.com entirely or put a # at the beginning of it to comment it out
* Save the file
* Drag it back to the /private/etc/ folder.
* You'd need to enter your username and password to authenticate the move

On Windows:


  • Locate the hosts file in one of the following directories:
Windows 95/98/Me c:\windows\hosts
Windows NT/2000/XP Pro c:\winnt\system32\drivers\etc\hosts
Windows XP, Vista, 7 c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts 

  • Right click and click on "Open With..." and then click on "Notepad" on the list.
Remove the line that has gs.apple.com completely and save the file.

restart your itunes.

This should work fine but you will lose all music, photos, videos and books :S

[: missing `]' +bash +shell scripts

 "=" sign requires a blank in front of it and after it. Otherwise, the bash only sees "something" within the brackets, and that is true (0), while "nothing" is false (1):

ex.
[ 5 = 6]
 
solution 
[ 5 = 6 ]

Solution: merge two files / append two files in Linux

Code:
cat file1 file2 .. fileN  > mergedfile
Note the '>' in the command: it points that the target file follows, don't forget to put it there.

Advance:
 
If you accept that entries in the resulting file are sorted, you can use uniq to remove duplicates.

Code:
cat file1 file2 | sort | uniq > mergedfile

Solution : raise TypeError("bufsize must be an integer")

Error : subprocess.call(['vim'],['/home/patelm/.bashrc'])

Solution: subprocess.call(['vim','/home/patelm/.bashrc'])


Whenever you're running subprocess.call and you see this
error, say to yourself: "Have I passed the command line
as one parameter in a list; or have I passed it as a series
of parameters?"
