Account migration issues

I'm trying to help out a friend who uses Apple Mail recently migrated from one email address to another. She's having some issues and not owning a Mac myself, I have no real way to diagnose or talk her through them.
What's happening in her words:
"I'd like apple mail to use the addresses in my address book, but
instead it pulls up old addresses used in the past. Do you know how to get it to use the address book as the default?"
Any ideas on what might be causing this?
She would also like to automatically use the signature from her old account. What sort of steps should I tell her to take in order to do that?
I have a feeling this would be trivial to do if I had physical access to her machine, but I don't.
Thanks

Mail already uses the addresses in her Address Book. She seems to be referring to addresses she has used before, which Mail keeps a record of you that you do not have to select them from Address Book each time, or type out the whole thing. She can find that list in the Window > Previous Recipients list. She can scroll through the list and delete those that she doesn't want in there because they're not valid anymore or they changed, or she can select them all and delete everything.
If she wants to use a signature from a previous installation of Mail, she needs to copy the Signatures folder from the old installation of Mail (in ~/Library/Mail to the same location for this new installation of Mail. If it no longer exists, she'll need to create it again from scratch.

Creating new account / migration issues

I would like to create a new user account (with the same email address as the current account) and re-authorize my computers (and migrate all purchased/imported songs). My situation is this:
- my account has three authorized computers, each with unique library content.
- two of the computers are mine, the third is not.
- I am essentially trying to "split" the account, at which point the owner of the third PC (which is not mine) can modify the email address and have their own account. And I will have my own.
Has anyone done this and do you have any tips?
Thanks!

I can't think of too much you need to be concerned with; just create the new account as you normally would. Note that you will need a different email address at least temporarily, since you cannot use the same email address twice as the iTunes Store ID. So if you don't have a second email address you can use, you might have to set up a GMail or other free email account or something just to get the ID set up. Then you can log into the new iTunes Store account and change the email address it uses to your desired address.
Note as well that the tracks you've already purchased will remain keyed to your current iTunes Store account, and there's no way to change that. So you will continue to need to use that account to authorize any computer to play those tracks.

Exchange 2007 - Exchange 2013 Mailbox Migration Issues

Exchange 2013 - Mail Flow is working. OWA Access is great. We have issues connecting Outlook 2010 Clients. If I create a new user and mailbox Outlook 2010 works fine. However, if we migrate a user's mailbox to the new Exchange
2013 server. Outlook Web (OWA) works and mail flow but "OUTLOOK 2010 can not connect to the new server" There is something different about a newly created account and a migrated account. Any help would be great. I did check
inheritance in AD and it was on for these accounts. This occurs with any account migrated to the new server.

1. Could you double check your Exchange 2007 Internal Autodiscover URI - it should be pointing to Exchange 2013. All clients should be receiving their autodiscover config from the Exchange 2013 server. Based on the client's mailbox location, Exchange 2013
generates and provides the correct information.
2. If the autodiscover URI is "autodiscover.yourdomain.com" and you've configured Split-Brain DNS or Pin-Point DNS zones on the local network, make sure the name is resolved to Exchange 2013 internal IP address.

Transfer User Accounts - iTunes issues

Hello Folks....
I have transfered my user information from an iMac to my new MacBook and everything copied perfectly okay. When i come to use iTunes after the transfer, i get a message saying "The file "iTunes Library" can not be read because it was created by a newer version of iTunes"
iTunes wont open and wont reconize my iPhone.
What i am trying to achive is to simply copy all my tunes from my iMac to the MacBook like everything else transfered.
I have MobileMe if thats of any help to my issue...
Will be more than happy to clarify anything - thanks in advance!
p.s... can anyone post a link to any forums with iSight problems - the light keeps coming on when i switch on the MacBook - ive only had it for a week.
Cheers!

To do this properly, create a new account from the Accounts pane of System Preferences and log in with that account. Connect the machine which stores the data for that account, and then copy that account's home folder to the /Users/ folder on your hard disk. Rename the existing home folder to something else, and then rename the home folder you just moved to the short name of the newly-created account if necessary. Log out and back in to complete the account migration process. It is possible to do this without logging in from the account you're going to transfer, but it is more complicated.

ITunes Disk Access Permission Error after Account Migration

We purchased a new mac mini and used the account migration tool to move an account from a g4 Powerbook to the new machine. Everything went fine, but there was a problem with iTunes. It would not import any music from a CD. The error was "You do not have disk permission to write the music."
HOW TO FIX:
1/ Go to iTunes>Preferences>Advanced
2/ Check the iTunes Music Folder Location. (it is the first window down)
3/ It should say something like:
Macintosh HD:Users:yourname:Music:iTunes:iTunesMusic...
(In our case, it was still set for the old machine.)
5/ Select "reset" button on right. Click OK.
That's it.
Mac Mini Mac OS X (10.4.6)
PowerBook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.1)

I followed the instructions and it opened the itunes application correctly and allowed the user to access itunes account. However when I overwrote the new library folder with the old one the problem re-appeared so the fault lies with this library folder and some sort of permissions issue?. This has happened with a lot of accounts on our system and I am at a loss as to why it is happening. Furthermore it has now started to occur with Apple works files. Any ideas anyone?

Account Migration and Gamer's Club Unlocked

Long and bitter post alert, apologies in advance for the wall of text.
Somehow, I ended up two my Best Buy accounts - one of them ElitePlus, one normal with a Gamer's Club Unlocked subscription (apparently I shop at Best Buy alot, but given my recent experiences, I am starting to rethink that decision).
I called the Best Buy call center who started the process to combine them and they informed me that it would take up to 7 business days. During the account migration process, I was told I would not be able to use my Gamer's Club Unlocked benefits during the migration period. Annoying, but understandable.
8 business days later, I called back to check the status. After being abruptly placed on hold so the associate could "research," I was told I was mistaken, that the account migration process could take up to 10 days and that I would simply need to wait. Not wanting to argue, I accepted that I would just need to wait.
Coincidentally, I was notified just hours later that the migration was complete. When I logged on to check my account, I saw that my Unlocked subscription wasn't listed. When I tried to get the discount on a new game online, I was unsuccessful. Again, I called the call center and confirmed that the Unlocked subscription was no longer linked to my account. To fix this, the case would be escalated to the "back office" who would receive the request in 96 hours, and then need 1-2 business days to complete the request. I truly don't understand how something like this couldn't be fixed with the click of a button, especially given the irony that my purchase of Gamer's Club Unlocked is listed in my purchase history, but here I am waiting another 5-6 business days unable to take advantage of my paid membership.
Apparently, I can go in store to the customer service desk, have them call the call center to verify my Unlocked status, and they can manually give me a discount - but honestly, that is a near stupid amount of hassle considering I purchase most games online. Makes me want to continue purchasing games from Amazon, where they can be delivered at the click of the button and customer service reps have actual authority such that it doesn't take 2+ weeks for the mysterious "back office" to fix a simple account error.
TLDR: Got Gamer's Club Unlocked, excited to spend more money at Best Buy, but due to account issues with My Best Buy I've essentially been unable to use my benefits for 2 weeks, and still have another week (or more) to wait. I'm not holding my breath.

Hello jeffosaurus_rex,
Thank you for being a My Best Buy Elite Plus member. We greatly appreciate your loyalty. Thank you too for enrolling in Gamers Club Unlocked. I am sorry for the confusion that has subsequently taken place, but I'll be happy to help you get that resolved.
I have reviewed your account and I am happy to see our back office team was able to get us to the one yard line in terms of getting your second account cancelled and the previous purchases associated with your valid membership. I was able to take your account into the end zone and have applied the Unlocked benefits to your Elite Plus account. You should see this reflected within 24 hours when you log in at BestBuy.com. Benefits may also take 24 hours to be reflected when making purchases online or in-store.
Thank you for writing in (and putting up with a football analogy!) and thank you for being a Gamers Club Unlocked member. Please visit us again with any future questions.
All the best,
Mike|Social Media Specialist | Best Buy® Corporate

Graphics no longer exists in Developer Suite 10G. You have to replace the functionality , e.g. by using BI Beans. Have a look at the samples page http://www.oracle.com/technology/sample_code/products/forms/index.html

When i upgraded from 9.2.3 to 9.3.1 I had migration issues, where most my photos ended up in a restored event called restored photos. But then they don't come up in faces anymore. So can i upgrade to 9.3.2 and then just rebuild my photo library ? I want to upgrade to mountain lion. But concered about my photo library. So I restored my whole computer back to an earlier date, becuase I couldn't figure out how to restore just my photo library. Advice?

Best way is to restore your backup from before the problem, rebuild it and update it again

Exchange 2007 to 2013 Migration issues. Prompt for credentials, Public Folders inaccessible, Apps not working

Exchange 2013 Migration issues
I have three issues and decided to list them here. Please pick and choose to assist. Thanks in advance.
Environment:
Mixed 2007 SP3 R12 and 2013 CU3. 2007 Environment was webmail.domain.com. I installed new Exchange 2013 (1 CAS, 1 Mailbox) according to:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff805032(v=exchg.150).aspx. Exchange 2007 is now legacy.domain.com and Exchange 2013 CAS is webmail.domain.com.
Machine 1: Windows 8.1, not domain joined, using Outlook Anywhere external. Outlook 2013
Machine 2: Windows 7, domain joined, using Outlook Anywhere internal. Outlook 2010 SP2
I have migrated 1 user so far to Exchange 2013. This user was a Domain Admin. I have removed that membership. I checked the box to inherit permissions of the security of the object and reset the AdminCount attribute in ADSIedit to 0 and verified this replicated
to all domain controllers. ( I originally thought this to be the issue with it prompting for the password. )
Here is a Get-OutlookAnywhere cmdlet...

ISSUE 1
Issue: On Machine 1 (reference above) Windows Security prompt that says "Connecting to
[email protected]". Almost always prompts when Outlook is first opened. Afterwards (if it goes away) seemingly random on when it asks for it. I put in the credentials (absolutely correct) and it fails and prompts again.
I always check the box for it to save the password. To get rid of it, I click the Cancel button at which Outlook reports "NEED PASSWORD", but still acts fine sending and receiving emails. Eventually the "NEED PASSWORD" sometimes changes
to say "CONNECTED", but it works regardless.
No issues on Machine 2 so I don't know where the problem might be as there are a lot of variables in play here.
ISSUE 2
Migrated user is unable to open Public folders from Exchange 2007.
Cannot expan the folder. Microsoft Exchange is not available. Either there are network problems or the Exchange server is down for maintenance. (/o=...).
This error occurs on Machine 1, Machine 2 and from OWA, same error each time.
ISSUE 3
Apps. Installed by default are 4 apps (Bing Maps, Suggested Meetings, Unsubscribe, Action Items). I have made sure the apps are enabled in OWA and they show up in mail items on both Machine 1 (Outlook 2013) and OWA. They do not show up in Machine 2 (Outlook
2010). I'm assuming that isn't supported.
In OWA, when I go to the installed apps listing it shows all of the apps but has a broken link on the image describing the app.
When I click the app in either Outlook 2013 or in OWA, I get "APP ERROR, Sorry we can't load the app. Please make sure you have network and/or internet connectivity. Click "Retry" once you're back online.
Current workaround is just disabling them through OWA.

Hello,
In order to avoid confusion, we troubleshoot a issue per thread usually.
For your first isue, I agree with Ed's suggestion to check if your certificate name is correct.
Besides, I recommend you change ExternalClientAuthenticationMethod from Basic authentication to Negotiate authentication to check the result.

IPhoto 11 Migration Issue: Unique Circumstance (Boot Drive Crash)

Hello good folk,
I have a migration issue with iPhoto 11 due to a boot drive crash.
The issue: I have imported my library database file and all of my 25,000 photos into a clean install of iPhoto 11. All of the events are imported, but all of the photos appear in the very first event. All of the other events are populated with the correct number of photos, but none of the actual photos have been linked.
I know all about holding down option-click and option-command-click to rebuild libraries, directories, etc., as I have read about in multiple posts. But many tries haven't gotten me to success.
Any suggestions? What am I doing wrong?
Here are the specifics of the chain of events, in case it helps [sorry for all the details, but it might help]:
1. Was running iPhoto 09 in 10.5.8, my boot drive bit the dust.
2. I was able to save most of my data from the drive. Due to corrupt files, I was forced to back up unconventionally: instead of saving the entire library, which I could not do, I unpacked the iPhoto library and, from the Originals folder, I copied over entire year folders (2002, 2003, etc.) onto a non-boot drive. This worked.
3. I then installed the new boot HD and installed 10.6.X.
4. I installed fresh copy of iPhoto 11 and updated the software.
5. In iPhoto 11, I threw away the database and replaced with the recovered database from the old boot drive.
6. I copied all of the year photo folders (from the "Originals" folder on the manual backup disk) wholesale into the "Masters" folder of the new iPhoto 11 install.
7. [I could not use Migration Assistant to do this because Migration Assistant, for some reason, will not migrate from a non-boot drive that's installed internally on my Mac Pro.]
8. I option-command-clicked open iPhoto and selected:
-- Repair iPhoto Library Database
-- Rebuild small thumbnails
-- Rebuild all thumbnails
-- Examine/repair permissions.
9. I did this twice. The first time, the events from the database installed correctly, but the photos did not show up. The second time, after a very long time rebuilding the thumbnails, all 25,000 photos showed up, but in the very first event. All of the other events remain blank.
10. I then did an option-click, and chose to open the main library. I did that, but nothing changed.
11. Perhaps interestingly, when I option-click, it says that my manual backup from my internal drive -- where I did my emergency backup -- remains as the "default." The main iPhoto library is not the default.
12. That's where I am now. I really don't want to have to install manually without the data, when all of the events imported fine, and all of the photos are there, but in the wrong event.
Sorry for the long-windedness. Any suggestions are much appreciated!
John

I have imported my library database file and all of my 25,000 photos into a clean install of iPhoto 11. All of the events are imported, but all of the photos appear in the very first event. All of the other events are populated with the correct number of photos, but none of the actual photos have been linked.
You can not "Import" an old iPhoto library into another iPhoto library - it is not the way it works - if your old iPhoto library is available you simply place it in the pictures folder and launch iPhoto - no importing involved
you can not piece together an iPhoto library - which is why having a backup up is critical to avoid lost data
If your iPhoto library is not available as a single entity then you will have to start over and create a new library and import the photos into it losing all edits, metadata changes, etc
And if the future remember to always backup soon and often -it is the only way to avoid data loss due to failures - hardware, software and/or human

Countdown Timer Error Msg: "Warning: 1090: Migration issue"

Hey folks,
New to Flash here (using CS3), trying to create a countdown
timer.
Following is the error message I receive when trying to test
the
movie:
"Warning: 1090: Migration issue: The onEnterFrame is not
triggered
automatically by Flash Player at run time in ActionScript
3.0. You
must first register this handler for the event using
addEventListener
( 'enterFrame', callback_handler).
Does anyone know what this means? And please "dumb it down"
for this newbie. :)
Following is the actionscript I'm using:
this.onEnterFrame = function() {
var today:Date = new Date();
var currentYear = today.getFullYear();
var currentTime = today.getTime();
var targetDate:Date = new Date(2007,5,10);
var targetTime = targetDate.getTime();
var timeLeft = targetTime - currentTime;
var sec = Math.floor(timeLeft/1000);
var min = Math.floor(sec/60);
var hrs = Math.floor(min/60);
var days = Math.floor(hrs/24);
sec = String(sec % 60);
if (sec.length < 2) {
sec = "0" + sec;
min = String(min % 60);
if (min.length < 2) {
min = "0" + min;
hrs = String(hrs % 24);
if (hrs.length < 2) {
hrs = "0" + hrs;
days = String(days);
var counter:String = days + ":" + hrs + ":" + min + ":" +
sec;
time_txt.text = counter;
Thanks in advance!!!

It just means that you can't do things the "old" way. You
have to use the
AS3 event model, like so:
this.addEventListener("enterFrame", enterFrameHandler);
function enterFrameHandler(evt:Event) {
var today:Date = new Date();
var currentYear = today.getFullYear();
var currentTime = today.getTime();
var targetDate:Date = new Date(2007,5,10);
var targetTime = targetDate.getTime();
var timeLeft = targetTime - currentTime;
var sec = Math.floor(timeLeft/1000);
var min = Math.floor(sec/60);
var hrs = Math.floor(min/60);
var days = Math.floor(hrs/24);
sec = String(sec % 60);
if (sec.length < 2) {
sec = "0" + sec;
min = String(min % 60);
if (min.length < 2) {
min = "0" + min;
hrs = String(hrs % 24);
if (hrs.length < 2) {
hrs = "0" + hrs;
days = String(days);
var counter:String = days + ":" + hrs + ":" + min + ":" +
sec;
time_txt.text = counter;

Macbook migrating issues

Migrating issues! please help. At the moment I have two identities and my apps adobe and microsoft office 2008 do not work. I migrated from a macbook to a pro and everything seems crazy. I'm not an It guru so some of the solutions proposed at other forums do not work for me. I would like to go back to the original setup of the macbook pro and use the setup assitant to transfer my files from the old mac. Hopefully this would prevent some of the issues i'm currently facing. what do you reckon?

See the Pondoni article - particularly about a 'second chance' to use Setup. ANd don't do it wirelessly this time - either have both computers hardwired to the same router using Ethernet cabling or use the FireWire mode as discussed here - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4889.

Hi,
I am trying to implement Account Alias issue using package. Please let know API if anybody is aware of this API.

Don't think this is anything to do with SQL or PL/SQL.
I guess you need to try an Oracle Apps forum.

11g migration issues

I'm not sure if this forum is the right place to post 11g migration issues? If not, maybe someone can let me know where to do that. According to the article (http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/jdev/collateral/migration.html) which describes the manual changes you'll need to make after migrating a 10.1.3.4 app to an 11g (11.1.1.1.0 in my case), 'In this release, the migration wizard automates substituting references to adfFacesContext by the Trinidad equivalent requestContext in pages and page definitions...' I have found that this isn't necessarily the case. For example, in one of my pageDefs, the following reference was not changed to requestContext - RefreshCondition="#{!adfFacesContext.postback}". Also, I still see references to adfFacesContext in some of my jspx's as well. Just wanted to let someone know.

Update: Not only does the migration process not replace 'adfFacesContext' with 'requestContext' in pageDefs and jspx's, but when I do a search on 'adfFacesContext' so that I can locate all references that need to be replaced manually, the search comes back with 0 hits, when I know there are many. So, apparently the search mechanism is broken too.
