Problem with making folders in finder

when i use finder to make a new folder, the new folder has all the contents of my desktop in it. How do i correct this?

How are you making the new folder? Where are you creating this new folder? Does this happen no matter where the new folder is created?

Problem with making a database link.

Hello All
I got a problem with making a database link.
When I execute this query
CREATE PUBLIC DATABASE LINK DBNAME
CONNECT TO database IDENTIFIED BY name
USING 'DBNAME.europe.company.com';
I am using other names because its private information
But when I look at the table dba_db_links I see this
OWNER | DB_LINK | USERNAME |HOST
PUBLIC| DBNAME.europe.company.com| name| DBNAME.europe.company.com
So the DB_Link name is changed. And this causes a problem with my asp website. I get the fault message
ORA-02085: database link DBNAME.europe.company.com connects to DBNAME
Cause: a database link connected to a database with a different name. The connection is rejected.
The global_names = true and I prefer to keep it that way.
So does anyone knows what is wrong about my Query or how I can change the DB_Link name.
Thanks for the support,
Remco

Thanks for the help Mohit
But thats whats I was doing.
The query in the first post is the same as what you are posting.
But by an (for me) unknown reason the database converts DBNAME to DBNAME.europe.company.com

PROBLEM WITH MAKING RECTANGLE

i have a problem with illustrator cs6.. before this i've tried cs5..but when i use cs6 i have a problem when making a rectangle..when i make rectangle let say 3cm x 3cm without border i mean stroke i got the exact size but then when i use border only i mean stroke only without feel with the same box the size change into 3.0555 not 3 cm anymore..so is there anything that i missed tick out in ai cs6? reply me asap...

Could be that "use preview bounds" is turned on in the preferences. Here is the same rectangle with that preference off (left), and on (right).
The rectangle was not changed in any way between these two screen shots; just the preference.

Having Problems With Sharing & Permissions in Finder

I am using a Mac Mini (mid-2011) running Lion Server 10.7.4.
I have noticed lately that when I check files the Sharing & Permissions portion using Get Info on my files I find that there are two lines for each user on my compuer. The first set of lines says Read & Write which I actually selected. The second set of lines says Custom. When I check I have the list Read & Write, Read, Custom. When I try to change Custom I cam select new option No Privileges Info. For the other users I am able to delete the extra line once I select No Privileges Info. However even though I have more than one line I cannot delete the extra line for the main user. I will try and delete the extra line for the main user logged in as someone else that has what I have defined as admin privileges (reason I have more than one user).
This really concerns me because this issue is causing problems with me adding or removing files as needed in the terminal. When I try I get this funky error:
Dubious permissions on file (skipping): filename with duplicate entries for a user.
This is happening more and more even though I am not changing the file permissions that I am aware of.
Any help would be appreciated.

Repairing the permissions of a home folder in Lion is a complicated procedure. I don’t know of a simpler one that always works.
Back up all data now. Before proceeding, you must be sure you can restore your system to its present state
Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the page that opens.
Drag or copy — do not type — the following line into the Terminal window, then press return:
chmod -R -N ~
The command will take a noticeable amount of time to run. When a new line ending in a dollar sign ($) appears below what you entered, it’s done. You may see a few error messages about an “invalid argument” while the command is running. You can ignore those. If you get an error message with the words “Permission denied,” enter this:
sudo !!
You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning not to screw up.
Next, boot into Recovery by holding down the key combination command-R at startup. Release the keys when you see a gray screen with a spinning dial.
When the Recovery screen appears, select Utilities ▹ Terminal from the menu bar.
In the Terminal window, enter “resetpassword” (without the quotes) and press return. A Reset Password window opens. You’re not going to reset the password.
Select your boot volume if not already selected.
Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button.
Select  ▹ Restart from the menu bar.

Q10, problem with making a Security Copy

Two weeks ago, I haven't been able to make a Security Copy. A frame with "An error has been produced while making a security copy" (translated from Spanish) appears every time I try to make one.
It also says "It might have occurred a problem with the smartphone or the connection during the security copy. Verify that the smartphone is turned-on and is connected".
CAN YOU PLEASE HELP ME???
Thanks. Regards,

Problems with browser loading and finder menus

I have a MacPro Tower using airport to connect to a DSL modem. Recently I am having problems with very slow loading of web pages, often showing "Can't Find Server" errors. The problem is not with my DSL provider, because I have two older Macs in the house using the same DSL line and they are working fine. Video tutorials on Adobe's site are freezing about two minutes in and never load entirely (not a problem on the other Macs). This happens with any browser so not a browser problem. Also when quitting applications on occasion the finder menu continues to show the menu for the application I have just quit and seems reluctant to go back to finder or another application.
Anyone have any ideas?

Similar problem here: sometimes ALL browsers (Safari, Camino, Firefox) stuck randomly on certain web pages.
If I force close the browsers, the program remain in Dock (but not in Process Monitor or in Terminal) and the machine refuse to restart (but others programs works as well).
Even if I submit a "sudo reboot" the machine remains in unknow state.
The only way to exit from this situation is to do an hard reset.

Problem with f:invoke - cannot find method with argument

Hi,
I have <f:invoke var="${bpmObj}" methodName="tempMethod" retAttName="... /> in my JSP.
Now, in ALBPM I have this method tempMethod and I gave it one out argument so it can return something to my JSP variable given in retAttName.
Problem is that it cannot find this method because it is something like tempMethod(out resultString) and my JSP invoke has no input/output attributes at all.
It is working only when I delete all in/out args from definition of my method, but I want it to return something! How to do it? please help.

Paul

Problem with opening folders

Hi all,
The problem ocurred several days ago, I can't trace what might have caused it.
When using Spotlight or Dock folders, I cannot open any folder. Instead, Preview is being launched and a graphic file inside the folder is being opened. This happens every time, with no exceptions. In nested folders, clicking on the "Open in Finder" arrow (when opening folders via Dock) brings the same result.
I have made a short screencast showing the problem, it can be found here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qirzp8WmnjM
Please help, it's very annoying
Regards,
Adam

It didn't help.
However, I have solved the problem using this little program: RCDefaultApp - it turned out that Finder file type "fold" somewhat become unmarked. After marking it the problem is gone

Problems with Public Folders in Exchange 2010

Last month I upgraded my servers from 2000 to 2010. The route I took for exchange was 2000 -> 2003 -> 2010. Everything went fairly smooth and I have had no real problems until this week. (I have uninstalled the older exchange servers.) I have been
trying to clean out some of the remnants that have been left over from the older servers (for whatever reason the uninstall did not remove the information on the new server). I used ASDI edit to remove some old information that was pointing to the old exchange
server (First Administration Group I think it was called).
After that I upgraded to SP1 and Rollup 1. The Public folder database no longer appears under Organization Configuration, Mailbox. I am not sure if it was there after my deletion or not, so I am unsure if the problem is caused by my deletions or the upgrade.
I followed the instructions found here, http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb727370%28EXCHG.80,printer%29.aspx . The CN=Public folders was found in CN=Folder Hierarchies. However
msExchOwningPFTree is greyed out, so I cannot update it. I have tried to delete it and remake it, same thing.
I also get the following events which I am assuming is caused by the Public Folders database not being mounted:

Also, the CN=InformationSore is empty. Is this normal?
Now I am assuming I deleted something that I shouldn't have.

Tried that, I get the following when I go to the Public Folder Management Console:
Cannot complete the operation because there isn't an available public folder database on server
And even if I did that how does that help me retrieve my missing information?

Problems with icloud folders and sent items

Hey,
I have done an extensive search but cannot find the answer to my query. I have been a long time user of apple’s email service and thus have an @mac.com/@me.com and an @icloud.com email address. Recently icloud has been playing up and is no longer storing my sent emails in the sent email file but is creating a smart “Trash” folder with a “sent Items” folder in that and this is where my sent items are coming up.
This is not only annoying but is also mucking up my ability to sync properly with Postbox
Does anyone know what on earth is going on?
Thank you!

If this is a POP account and you’re running Mac OS X 10.3 (Panther), you probably have the problem described here:
Overstuffed mailbox is unexpectedly empty
If you’re just starting to experience the problem, doing what the article suggests might work. If you’ve let the problem to become worse over time, however, it’s almost certainly too late to solve it as described in the article.
Because of the differences between Mail 1.x and Mail 2.x, further discussing your problem here might confuse other users with apparently similar problems using Mac OS X 10.4 (Tiger), so please start a new topic in the Mail & Address Book - Mac OS X 10.3 & earlier forum, or just look for other threads discussing the same problem there. This is actually a FAQ in that forum.

Problem with making 16:9 PAL DVD

Hello!
I'm trying to make a 16:9 PAL DVD in Adobe Encore and everything is perfect untill I play the DVD on my TV (it works just fine on my computer). Two videos included in the DVD were made in Adobe Premiere and one of them works without any problems (it is just a slideshow), but part of the other footage isn't shown on the TV - the video is being played on the TV with no black lines around it, but it is like cropped. The video was made in 16:9 and I've also checked the settings on my DVD player, which look just fine to play a 16:9 DVD. I think that this problem had occured while making the DVD in Adobe Encore and I'd like to know how to solve it if anyone of you can tell me how.
Thanks for your help.

OK, the PrPro Project/Sequences are set to 16:9 PAL and Exported as that, into an Encore 16:9 PAL Project, right, or did you use Adobe DL for transferring the Assets over?
On a computer, the DVD plays fine, but part of one of the Timelines is black, when the DVD is run on a set-top player, hooked to a TV. The other Timeline is shown much smaller, with black bars around it. Is that correct?
Can you test the DVD on another set-top player, and another TV? Maybe stop by your local electronics store and ask them to play it for you. What happens there?
As there are differences in the setting of both players and TV's regarding wide-screen, it could be as simple as those settings. However, that would not explain why half of one Timeline is black. Now, poor choice of media, or too high a burn rate could account for some of that.
What media did you use, and what was the burn rate?
Good luck,
Hunt

Again same problem with quotes, but cant find a proper sol

I've gone thru so many posts, but cud'nt really find a solution. someone please help me here. I have a single insert function, which does all inserts for many tables, so cant use ppdstmt.setString(1, "value").
I am trying to insert some data into SQL server database(thru jdbc). The normal data works just fine, but if the user inserts some data which have quotation marks, then its throwing an error that is invalid character.
ex: received ->enters correctly into db
but
rec'd -> unable to
Insert into table(name) values('Oreilly'); //works fine
Insert into table(name) values('O'reilly'); //throws an error, sql exception
because the sql server is unable to find the matching quote. I would like to replace it with a ` or double quotes, but I am unable to replace it. I am not using a string to insert a value, I am using an Object. so I am unable to use any preparedStatement also(like ppdstmt.setString(1,"value"). Also I cant use replaceAll function, because, I am using jdk1.3. Is there any other way, I can replace ' with '' or `. The following is my code for inserting data.
private void insert(String pQualifierName, String pTableName, Map pValueMap)
m1Buffer.append("INSERT INTO ").append(QualifyTableName(pQualifierName, pTableName)).append(" (");
m2Buffer.append(" VALUES (");
// go over all values
boolean isNotFirst = false;
for (Iterator i = pValueMap.keySet().iterator(); i.hasNext();)
if (isNotFirst)
m1Buffer.append(", ");
m2Buffer.append(", ");
isNotFirst = true;
String aColumnName = (String) i.next();
// add the column name to the first part
m1Buffer.append(aColumnName);
// add a "?" to the second part, as well as adding the value to the parameter list
if(pValueMap.get(aColumnName)!= null) {
//aColumnName=aColumnName.replace( '\'', '`');
m2Buffer.append("'");
m2Buffer.append(pValueMap.get(aColumnName));
m2Buffer.append("'");
} else {
m2Buffer.append(pValueMap.get(aColumnName)); //appends the value we entered
m1Buffer.append(")");
m2Buffer.append(")");
protected void insert()
verifyUnbacked();
try
StatementBuilder aBuilder = StatementBuilder.insertStatement(accessQualifierName(), accessTableName(), mUnbackedMap);
Connection aConnection = ConnectionPool.getConnection();
try
PreparedStatement aPreparedStatement = aBuilder.generatePreparedStatement(aConnection);
try
aPreparedStatement.executeUpdate();
Thanks

Barun_guha,
Thanks for your code, but the problem is pValueMap.get(aColumnName) is an Object and it cannot be initialized as a String .
scsi-boy,
I am attaching the 2 files related, StatementBuilder.java and AbstractEntity.java.

Problems with Gummiboot (does not find Windows)

Hello All,
Today I'm in Spain installing Arch to my parents. Unfortunately I'm not able to make Gummiboot to find Windows 8...
For sure it's my fault and I made something wrong...
Can someone help me with this please? I will leave tomorrow morning but I still have access remotely to the computer).
[angarrub@myArchEsp ~]$ lsblk
NAME MAJ:MIN RM SIZE RO TYPE MOUNTPOINT
sda 8:0 0 465,8G 0 disk
├─sda1 8:1 0 350M 0 part /run/media/angarrub/Reservado para el sistema
├─sda2 8:2 0 230,4G 0 part /run/media/angarrub/Nuevo
├─sda3 8:3 0 1G 0 part /boot
├─sda4 8:4 0 50G 0 part /
├─sda5 8:5 0 175G 0 part /home
└─sda6 8:6 0 9G 0 part [SWAP]
I'm quite sure that the problem is that I created another EFI partition (for not touching anything from Windows installation) and installed Gummiboot there. I would like to know what to do to create the entry for Windows and boot normally from /dev/sda1.
Please, do not hesitate to ask me whatever you need meto fix this.
Thanks a lot in advance.
Best regards,
TheArcher

Keep in mind you'll have to set your Windows Device to Bootable not your Syslinux boot device.
Syslinux
pacman -S syslinux # or pacstrap syslinux base base-devel /w installation
nano /boot/syslinux/syslinux.cfg # LABEL arch >> root=/dev/sda[X] X being your linux root device
syslinux-install_update -i -a -m;
mkdir /mnt/sda[Y] # Y being your Windows HD Device
mount /dev/sda[Y] /mnt/sda[Y] # Y being your Windows HD Device
dd if=/dev/sda[X] of=/mnt/sda[Y]/linux.bin bs=512 count=1 # X being your linux BOOT device && Y being your Windows HD Device
Writeout your linux boot partition to your Windows HD, again having your Windows MBR device as bootable in cfdisk not your linux boot device.
[X] and [Y] should translate to a number.
Of course this is backwards, using windows to boot linux.
Hope that helps.
Ok, so if I understood everything ok... in that HD with both EFI partitions I should:
uninstall grub/gummiboot
install syslinux on /dev/sda1
configure two entries: one for arch /dev/sda3 and the second for Windows on /dev/sda1
And should work?
And... one question... I was trying to mount the 350mb partition (windows one, /dev/sda1) but I couldn't find the efi files... maybe I was doing something wrong because the only things that looks like a boot files are inside windows/boot folder...
I can try to connect remotely and check it later if you need more information.
Thanks a lot, really, best community ever!
