HT5097 How can I make more than one backup at the same time

I use time machine to backup my mac. I want to also make an additional backup on a different hard drive in case the first drive fails. How do I do that?

I suggest you do not use Time Machine for the second backup. Instead, I suggest cloning your drive to a different backup drive using different backup software.
Your secon drive should be the same size as your computer's drive. Start by using Disk Utility's Restore option to clone your computer's drive to the new backup drive:
Clone Lion/Mountain Lion using Restore Option of Disk Utility
Boot to the Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
     1. Select Disk Utility from the main menu then press the Continue
         button.
     2. Select the destination volume from the left side list.
     3. Click on the Restore tab in the DU main window.
     4. Select the destination volume from the left side list and drag it
         to the Destination entry field.
     5. Select the source volume from the left side list and drag it to
         the Source entry field.
     6. Double-check you got it right, then click on the Restore button.
Destination means the external backup drive. Source means the internal startup drive.
After this initial clone you can use other backup software suggested below to make incremental updates to the backup. These incremental updates can be done on a regular schedule.
Suggested Backup Software
1. Carbon Copy Cloner
2. Get Backup
3. Deja Vu
4. SuperDuper!
5. Synk Pro
6. Tri-Backup
Others may be found at VersionTracker or MacUpdate.
Visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQ on backup and restore. Also read How to Back Up and Restore Your Files.
The two backups need not be done on the same schedule. Time Machine backsup hourly. The other backup could be done on a daily or even weekly schedule.

Nope - not at the present time anyway.

HT1657 Can you rent more than one movie at the same time?

I think Justin is correct and you should have statistics in place and a reasonable partition scheme so that the optimizer selects the correct partitions rather than telling it what to do. You paid a lot for partitioning after all.
There are some, possibly misguided, examples in the manuals showing how to create a view so you can delete from a single partition without specifying the partition criteria in the delete statement. This in effect turns partitioning back into DIY partitioning i.e. separate tables, union all and pretend its a single logical table using a view. But backwards.
So to do what you want you just assume the partitions are separate tables, and then use union all to glue the ones you want back together.
select * from sales partition (sales_q1_2000)
union all
select * from sales partition (sales_q1_2001)
union all
select * from sales partition (sales_q1_2003)
union all
select * from sales partition (sales_q1_2004);It probably goes without saying that as well as making the expensive version of partitioning behave like the free alternative, there is the possibility that it will perform like it as well.

How Can I Update More Than One Ipod on the Same Computer?

I've had my 30G Ipod since April 2006. For Christmas 2006, I bought my sister a 2G Ipod. I cannot figure out how to put songs on her Ipod as we both share the same computer and Itunes Library. I've already asked Ipod Corporate for help via their FAQ section regarding more than one Ipod operating with the same computer, but their advice (which told me to create a playlist small enough for her Ipod and checked as a shared playlist) did not work for me. I'd really appreciate any help with my problem. Owning an Ipod but being unable to listen to it, as I'm sure many people would agree, is quite annoying.

There are basically two ways of using multiple iPods on a computer and these involve:
a) Sharing a single iTunes library and user account.
b) Creating multiple user accounts and having separate libraries.
Sharing a Library
If you want to share the one library, you can set either or all of the iPods so that they only get updated with only certain playlists (you can update from more than one if you wish):
Loading songs onto iPod automatically - Windows
Choosing the update option "Sync Music - Selected playlists" allows you to create a playlist specifically for the iPod and drag the tracks you want into it. If you tire of the list and want to change it, you just add or remove the songs you don't want. The ones you take out out remain in the library to be used some other time if you choose. You can read more about playlists at these links:
iTunes: Creating playlists of your favorite songs
How to create a Smart Playlist with iTunes
However since you seem to have a problem with that method you can choose to update any or all of the iPods manually and just drag whatever content you want to them: Managing content manually on iPod
Separate User Accounts
Another option is to create a separate User account for each person on your PC or Mac. Different accounts by definition would give you completely separate libraries. Each account has it's own iTunes folder, Library and iTunes Music folder and you load it with CDs etc just as you did with your original one. The iPod can be set to update however the owner chooses, sync all, manual or sync specific playlists
If you are unfamiliar with setting up Windows user accounts you can read more here: Using Windows XP User Accounts

How can I compare more than two VIs at a same time in labview 2009

How can I compare more than two VIs at the same time. I am an Lab Engineer I have to check assignments submitted by students and I want to know how many of them are copied from each other. Labview compare VI can only compare two VI at a time while I want to check about 30 VIs at same time.
Regards,

I'm not aware of a tool to compare multiple VIs. If you don't find anything, consider posting this to the LabVIEW Idea Exchange to expose this idea directly to NI R&D.

Can i create more than one library on the same computer?

Can I create more than one library on the same computer? Just got an ipod for my wife but didn't want her to have to use my library to sync to, so I thought I created another library for her. When I deleted my albums from her library the disappeared from mine. (I think?)

I know it's Valentine's Day, but before you get your wife fixed up the first thing you need to do is recover the deleted albums for your own library. See if the files are elsewhere on your hard drive, or in the Recycle Bin. When you find them, get them back into your own library. Now you are ready to help your wife.
As noted above, you can have two libraries in one Windows user account via the Shift-Start approach, but if you both use your libraries regularly, that becomes annoying quickly. It is better to set her up with her own Windows user account. She can have her own iTunes library there.
Get a copy of your entire iTunes folder to start her off. She can delete stuff she doesn't want without messing you up.

Add Suppporting Details for more than one periods at the same time for the same Account in Planning.

As we know, in planning form, we can add supporting details to one cell for the level 0 members intersections.
But can we do that as below:
add supporting details for more than one cells at the same time?
I tried to do that in workspace and smartview, neither is working.(my workspace version 11.1.2.2.300.20)
I wonder if i am not with the right version, because i don't know how to get the below.
Can any one explain?
Thank you.

Hi,
I have tried in Smartview for a simple form where my period dimension was in columns and accounts in rows.
You need to select multiple period and select supporting details, it will show those selected period for which you can add the supporting details.
You can add these details and then submit the data in the form.

Drill down more than one characteristic at the same time.

Hi,
Is there any way to drill down more than one characteristic at the same time?
When I drill down by 0cust_sales I would like to have drilled down: division/distrchan/salesorg/cust_sales without having to do that one by one.
thank you!

Hi,
This cannot be done unless these characterstics are related to each other in some way as Charactertics & Display Attributes.
The reason being when you drill down the 0cust_sales , there is no link from 0Cust_sales to the other characterstics hence there is no prompt for these characterstics to be drilled down.
However, a smiliar thing might be acheived by adding these chareacterstics into the 0cust_sales in teh query designer by dragging n dropping them over 0cust_sales. you can try this and see if this is close to your requiremetn.
Kind Regards,
Tapish

Is there any way that i can call more than one reports at the same time through the .FMX file. At the moment i can call only one report, if i need to call another report then i have to close the 1st report, then it will show me the 2nd report. Report Background Engine can run more than one reports at the same time?

Yes i know, we can submit multiple - asynchronous- jobs, but the problem is, is not possible to open more than one previewer to see multiple reports at the same time for analysis.
