Logically to me that means stick A has a peculiar fault that causes a problem with ver 9B2 From Stick A - ver 9B2 does not work Stick B - ver 9B2 works you deduce that stick A must be faulty because B works with 9B2, but A does not. Sounds logical, no doubt. From Stick A - ver 9A4 works Stick A - ver 9B2 does not work one can deduce with exactly the same logic that 9B2 must be faulty because 9A4 works with A, but 9B2 does not. Both conclusions follow the same logic. So A is faulty or 9B2 is faulty or both. This was my point. I think this was a sensible and objective contribution to this topic.

ahellary Posted July 24, 2020 Share Posted July 24, 2020 also by deduction as both sticks have been tried on 2 seperate layouts and pcs and the only common intem when it fails is stick a you can deduce that it is indeed stick a that is at fault Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium melmerby Posted July 24, 2020 RMweb Premium Share Posted July 24, 2020 (edited) You cannot take them in isolation Using Shirley's information stick A = my stick Stick B = other users stick layout A = my layout layout B = other users layout 9A4 stick A layout A = works 9A4 stick B layout A = works 9B2 Stick A layout A = does not work 9B2 stick B layout A = works 9A4 Stick A Layout B = works 9A4 stick B Layout B = works 9B2 Stick A Layout B = does not work 9b2 stick B layout B = works The only common factor with Stick A (Shirley's) not working is with 9B2 on any installation. ergo Stick faulty.

pohlmannx Posted July 24, 2020 Share Posted July 24, 2020 (edited) In each failing scenario stick A is a common factor. In each failing scenario B2 is a common factor. It can be concluded that A and B2 do not work together. However, I cannot conclude whether this is only due to A, or only due to B2 or both.

Whichever it might be, you would think it might be in Herr Freiwald's interest to assist his customer to resolve the issue.

I don’t think that you actually understand logic as it has been proved beyond any mathematical doubt with the logic table that @Shirleybasm has a fault stick yet you still maintain the position of Herr Freiwald being correct in his ‘diagnosis’ though Herr Freiwald has not offered any explanation of why his product and his USB stick do not work together.

Both conclusions follow the same logic. So A is faulty or 9B2 is faulty or both. This was my point. I think this was a sensible and objective contribution to this topic. I would suggest you look at my post on the testing done this gives complete in depth look of the testing . You will see that another users stick on my layout did work with 9B2 and that my stick on there layout did not work with 9 B2. This clearly shows the common factor is my stick. If it was software other users would be reporting the same issue. ( which herr freiwald confirms they are not ) And the other users stick would not work on my layout which it did work. but to determine the cause only herr freiwald could do this due to the nature of the issue and this is all I wanted, very simple request I thought. Even when I offered to pay for postage and if required a new stick Which I would pay for not that unreasonable I would say, but herr freiwald point blank refused such request and considers it a demand. so no both conclusions do not follow the same logic as your logic gives the premise it’s a software fault, When my testing has shown it not to be so where herr freiwald has done no testing, and even if it was at fault would not herr freiwald like to know what was wrong with 9b2 to bring out a new 9b3 to fix the software fault if such a fault exists. your original opening post stated that herr freiwald was the expert, which is why I wanted him to look at this, is this also flawed logic. But you also take my data use it to prove your point. Where is your data that freiwalds logic is sound. we shall never know now as herr freiwald refuses to communicate with me but if he really wants all the time and hassle of legal proceedings and all it entails as opposed to simple resolution then is that logical.

Ouroborus Posted July 24, 2020 Share Posted July 24, 2020 In another topic, freiwald says he does not sell to the UK, arguing that digital river do this.

RMweb Gold RFS Posted July 24, 2020 RMweb Gold Share Posted July 24, 2020 I recently had to have faulty stick replaced. Bit of a palaver but got there in the end. The new stick requires a two-step process for security reasons. The stick that is sent out needs to be activated. On receipt of the stick, you confirm to Herr F that you have it via your registered email address, and he returns to you a licence key to activate it. I wonder therefore that the stick that does not work on B2 needs to have this licence key added again to activate it? 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder therefore that the stick that does not work on B2 needs to have this licence key added again to activate it? It is also the procedure with an update where the old stick has an updated key to activate it for the new software version. I've had that from 7 > 8 > 9. As has been suggested, re-entering the key (which should still be in the inbox of the mail program) might be a useful way of eliminating one possible reason for the non working state of the stick.

This clearly shows the common factor is my stick. Sort of - but its possible that your version of 9B2 has been incorrectly configured for that dongle. Both the software and dongle could be working individually - just not correctly integrated. Not much help in resolving you problem but offers another explanation about what is happening. Did you know - dongles like this are probably covered for accidental damage on you contents insurance policy should anything bad happen to it.
