Is there a way to run a script to create an RPD file from MDS XML files

We would be interested in using the MDS XML format for the RPD file in saving it in our Subversion source code control system, and I have seen how to do this in the User documentation.
Our question is whether or not there is a way to use a command line tool to recreate the rpd file without having to use the Admin tool, so that we can automate the deployment of the RPD file from source code control to QA and Production environments.
If we check in the RPD file directly, then there is a way to automate the process, but we would prefer to use the MDS XML format since this allows us to save changes in text format, not binary, but we still need to be able to automate the process.
In the Oracle Fusion Middleware XML Schema Reference for Oracle Business Intelligence Enterprise Edition document, I have found that there is a way to automate the creation of the MDS XML files from an RPD file using this command:
biserverxmlgen -M -R repository_pathname [-P password] -D output_directory [-8] [-N] [-Q|-S]
So my question is basically is there a way to reverse this process, to use some command line tool (or Weblogic Scripting or some other mechanism) to create the RPD file from the MDS XML files? Are there options on the biserverxmlexec command that will do what I am asking?

Hey dmfairley,
Thanks for the question. You can absolutely export the project as .mp3, as outlined in this resource:
GarageBand Help: Export songs to disk
http://help.apple.com/garageband/mac/10.0/#gbnd7cbf5ed9
Export songs to disk
You can export a project to your computer as a stereo audio file.
Exported files can be reused in GarageBand to save processing resources by replacing or bypassing multiple regions, instruments, and effects. They can also be used with other music applications and devices, posted on the Internet (on a webpage, or in the iTunes Store, for example), added to an iTunes playlist, or uploaded to a mobile device such as iPhone or iPad.
1. Choose Share > Export Song to Disk.
2. To rename the exported file, select the name in the Save As field, then enter a new name.
3. Choose a location to save the exported file from the Where pop-up menu.
4. Select the format for the exported file (AAC, MP3, or AIFF).
5. Choose the quality setting for the exported file from the Quality pop-up menu.
6. Click Export.
Thanks,
Matt M.

Is there a way to run a script to remove a digital signature and unlock the fields it locked?

I'm creating a sectioned checklist (In LiveCycle Designer ES2 on a Windows 7 OS) covering a process with four sections to be completed/signed by different individuals. The final section is for a separate party that, if he/she approves the completed work, he/she signs the form and locks it down completely, however, if one particular item is wrong, he/she must return the form to the signer of Section 3.
I've worked with not locking the fields in Section 3 when Signer #3 signs the form and using visible and invisible signature forms (If Signer #4 selects a particular option, I reset the related fields in Section 3, hide the original signature, and show a new, empty signature field), however, if the form has to be returned numerous times, this is not a viable option.
I could include instructions for my end users to remove their own signatures, but some may not be very computer-literate, and this could be difficult. Is there a script I could either connect to a button or some way to reset just one section of the form? Or does anyone have a better idea?
Many thanks in advance!

Bob,
you could put a virtualizer such as VirtualBox or Parallels Desktop on the external drive, and install Windows and Windows apps in the virtualizer.

Is there a way to run iTunes on startup minimized directly to the system tray?

Ive been trying to tweak registry and even created a .bat file in order to fix this but still not working.
Since iOS 5 can sync wirelessly, is there a way to run iTunes on windows startup minimized directly to the system tray?
Any feedback is greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Correction...
It's a bit of a kludge, but copy the following two lines and paste into an empty Notepad window. Click Save As, change the Save as file type to All files and call the script MinimiTunes.vbs. Place the script or a shortcut to it into your startup group. iTunes will still open as full screen but will minimize shortly thereafter.
Set iTunes=CreateObject("iTunes.Application")
iTunes.Windows.Item(1).Minimized=True
Alternatively, download the script MinimiTunes from my site.

Is there a way to run a program designed for PC on my Mac?

I would like to use the Firearms Management System offered by one of my suppliers on my Mac but the only operating system shown to use is with is Windows. Is there a way to run it on my iMac?

Sure, many:
(Borrowed from Kappy)
Windows on Intel Macs
There are presently several alternatives for running Windows on Intel Macs.
Install the Apple Boot Camp software. Purchase Windows XP w/Service Pak2, Vista, or Windows 7. Follow instructions in the Boot Camp documentation on installation of Boot Camp, creating Driver CD, and installing Windows. Boot Camp enables you to boot the computer into OS X or Windows.
Parallels Desktop for Mac and Windows XP, Vista Business, Vista Ultimate, or Windows 7. Parallels is software virtualization that enables running Windows concurrently with OS X.
VM Fusionand Windows XP, Vista Business, Vista Ultimate, or Windows 7. VM Fusion is software virtualization that enables running Windows concurrently with OS X.
CrossOver which enables running many Windows applications without having to install Windows. The Windows applications can run concurrently with OS X.
VirtualBox is a new Open Source freeware virtual machine such as VM Fusion and Parallels that was developed by Solaris. It is not as fully developed for the Mac as Parallels and VM Fusion.
Note that Parallels and VM Fusion can also run other operating systems such as Linux, Unix, OS/2, Solaris, etc. There are performance differences between dual-boot systems and virtualization. The latter tend to be a little slower (not much) and do not provide the video performance of the dual-boot system. See MacTech.com's Virtualization Benchmarking for comparisons of Boot Camp, Parallels, and VM Fusion. Boot Camp is only available with Leopard or Snow Leopard. Except for Crossover and a couple of similar alternatives like DarWine you must have a valid installer disc for Windows.
You must also have an internal optical drive for installing Windows. Windows cannot be installed from an external optical drive.

Is There a Way to Run a Redo log for a Single Tablespace?

I'm still fairly new to Oracle. I've been reading up on the architecture and I am getting the hang of it. Actually, I have 2 questions.
1) My first question is..."Is there a way to run the redo log file...but to specify something so that it only applies to a single tablespace and it's related files?"
So, in a situation where, for some reason, only a single dbf file has become corrupted, I only have to worry about replaying the log for those transactions that affect the tablespace associated with that file.
2) Also, I would like to know if there is a query I can run from iSQLPlus that would allow me to view the datafiles that are associated with a tablespace.
Thanks

1) My first question is..."Is there a way to run the
redo log file...but to specify something so that it
only applies to a single tablespace and it's related
files?"
No You can't specify a redolog file to record the transaction entries for a particular tablespace.
In cas if a file gets corrupted.you need to apply all the archivelogs since the last backup plus the redologs to bring back the DB to consistent state.
>
2) Also, I would like to know if there is a query I
can run from iSQLPlus that would allow me to view the
datafiles that are associated with a tablespace.Select file_name,tablespace_name from dba_data_files will give you the
The above will give you the number of datafiles that a tablespace is made of.
In your case you have created the tablespace iwth one datafile.

Is there a way to run Motion and Final Cut Pro on Separate Machines?

Is there a way to run Motion and Final Cut Pro from the same Final Cut Studio license on separate machines? We hadn't realised when we bought Final Cut Studio that it wouldn't allow this. Our editor doesn't use motion, and while I mainly use After Effects on our motion graphics machine, I was wanting to try using motion for some particle effects. Unfortunately, it won't let me open it while Final Cut is running on our editor's machine. I can understand not letting two copies of same application run under the same serial number at the same time, but it would be nice to be able to use both programs that we own concurrently. At very least it would be good to warn you that this isn't possible in the product description, not in some fine print license agreement once you have already bought the software.
-Matt

I do not know of any software, in any platform that can operate from the same license over a network simultaneously.This is the exact reason for the existence of Volume Licensing. If for example a project ran in each one of the included applications from different sources that were not an active network, I doubt you would have a problem.Like, doing a project at work and geting the outcome with the Powerbook at home...Sorta!

Is there a way to run Internet Explorer on a Mac mini with mountain lion?

I need to access a professional website that only works with IE (don't get me started on THAT) I need to do billing using this site so need to have full functionality. Is there a way to run IE on my mac mini with mountain lion?

The key takeaway here is that yes, you can access Windows 7 (and IE 9) from OS X Mountain Lion.
The crucial question is about your workflow. If you need concurrent access to both Windows 7 and Mountain Lion, then the Bootcamp solution included with Mountain Lion would not be the right choice. You would need one of the virtualization solutions.
If you need helpdesk support from a paid product, rather than entirely from a community forum, then the latest Parallel's Desktop or VMware would be a matter of choice, with Parallel's the better decision at this point. Either of these products are under $100, in addition to the cost of a Windows 7 license. You may need the Windows 7 installation media as an .ISO file, rather than on DVD. Check requirements.
By example, I use Oracle's VirtualBox (free) on Mountain Lion, with a Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit guest. The interactive and network performance of this Windows guest are more than adequate on my 2011 mini. I assigned 3 GB memory and 2 of 4 processor threads to the Windows 7 guest. I also restricted guest CPU use to 80%. VirtualBox is installed on my SSD, but the Windows guest is on an external HDD. That is not a default configuration. There are multiple choices for display; from full-screen 1920x1200 (mine) to an isolated resizeable window, to seamless integration with OS X. The Apple keyboard, bluetooth devices (trackpad/mouse), and printer all are recognized. I also have a shared OS X folder with VirtualBox, and copy/paste integration.
I use VirtualBox as it meets my support (forum) and functional requirements.
Best wishes,

Is there a way to run a 2005 PreSonus Firebox(with the firewire) to a mid-2011 iMac 0SX 10.7.2? It says its no longer supporting Power PC? Anything I can do without spending more money on new equipment or a new computer? Please help me.

Nevermind, I got it working.
I ended up extracting the new vob within MPEG Streamclip, which gave me an m2v and an aiff audio. I multiplexed those two back together in FFMpegX which gave me a complete VIDEO_TS folder with BUP and IFO files I needed.

Is there a way to run a external ssd with my mid 2011 iMac hdd in a raid configuration and basically have a fusion drive

is there a way to run a external ssd with my mid 2011 iMac hdd in a raid configuration and basically have a fusion drive

A Fusion Drive is not a RAID; it's a CoreStorage logical volume group. While it's technically possible to do as you suggest, there would be little or no benefit from it.

Cool!! You're welcome - but BDAqua (there's that name again!) deserves the credit (although I knew it too)
So much for a Mac's claim of 'continuity' and 'ease of use' huh?
BDAqua is a venerable friend of ours here... you will kick yourself!

I hope there is a solution to this problem note that I can not use the iPad now

Your question makes no sense and I'm not sure if you typed very quickly and autocorrect went nuts on you, or if you are not a native English speaker and Google Translate didn't work properly. If you are saying that you forgot the passcode to unlock the iPad, follow the instructions here.

Is there any way to run Classic on an Intel mini running Tiger?

Due to space limitations, I'm having to retire my old faithful Powermac 6500. It's hard to believe that it's 10 years old. It's running OS8.6, and can run OS9 even though it seems slow and memory intensive.
Is there any way to run Classic mode on my Intel Core Duo mini? It's hardly a matter of life and death, but I still have several older Mac-based games like Railroad Tycoon II and Myst that I enjoy, and they won't run on the newer mini.
If space wasn't a problem, I would keep the old machine running just to play games, but it's not possible now.
Any assistance would be appreciated.
Thank you,

The only way is to install (free) emulator programs such as BasiliskII or SheepShaver.
I have both installed, though I only use them to run older programs to rescue old data from obsolete formats.
Installing and configuring them is not trivial, unfortunately.
Links here:
http://basilisk.cebix.net/
http://gwenole.beauchesne.info/projects/sheepshaver/
I don't know if either is suitable for the kind of games you want to play. Graphics is typically where emulators fall behind. But again, I have no experience with those games.
