Question about transfering files between windows OS and mac OS when using bootcamp

I'm thinking about buying the latest macbook pro, however, many of the statistical programs I use are only compatible with windows OS. I am aware of fusion and parallels, but I was advised to use bootcamp to maximize the performance of both the statistical programs AND the macbook itself. When using bootcamp, if I were to create a word document for my statistical output in the windows 7 partition, would I be able to access it directly from the hard drive in the mac OS partition using windows for mac? Any suggestions would be appreciated!

I run both Windows and OS X on my Mac. I would never ever want the Windows partition to have write access to my OS X partition. Be cautious when considering this ability. I would much prefer sharing files by a third drive, be it a flash drive, and external HDD, NAS, or an SD card.

The Question about stock transfer between HU-Management and WM-Management

Hi,
There is a scenario about stock transfer between HU-Management and WM-Management storage location. I use transaction MB1B , movement type 313 , 315. After Good issue from WM-management storage location, outbound delivery will genarated, then Pack, Create/Confirm TO, at last post goods issue for the outboud delivery. But when i do movement type 315, there is a warning message "Data of preceding document was not transmitted", and from the F1 help i find this system reponse "You can maintain an indicator that makes information about preceding documents in this delivery available under delivery type in Customizing. For some characteristics of this indicator, the type of preceding document and the related document and item numbers must be transmitted to delivery creation. At least one of these parameters is missing.".
So, My questions are:
1. Generallily, Outbound delivery is created by SO, inbound delivery is created referenc PO, but how the stock transfer for 2 steps generate the outbould delivery and inbound delivery? Could you pls tell me the where i can config this in the IMG?
2. What's "Data of preceding document was not transmitted" mean ? how to fix this issue ?

Hi,
Sure, The inbound delivery type is set up in the IMG->Logistics General -> HU management -> Basics ->Delivery type -> Delivery type determination.
For Inbound delivery type 'HID' is maintained in this view.

Some One want to discuss the details , can contact me. Thanks.

HT1296 I have a question about transferring files, photos etc, from my ipad air to my PC Windows XP and visa versa

I want to know how to transfer files between my ipad air and my pc Windows XP. I know I can't use icloud because my windows is XP, but there must be some easy way, I hope to transfer files back and forth. If you know of a way or an app, is it user friendly?

The way that you can transfer apps can vary depending upon the apps themselves. Many apps use iOS file sharing with iTunes. Read about file sharing here.
iOS: About File Sharing - Support - Apple
Some people use DropBox to move photos, videos and other files back and forth.
Dropbox - Dropbox for iPad
There are apps that will move files back and forth using USB and WiFi.
File Manager - Folder Plus on the App Store on iTunes
And of course files can be transferred via email.

Question about transferring files from a Mac

Hi there!
I want to ask about the new iPad mini (and or the iPad 3) especially with transferring files from a Mac.
I normally just do the "normal" way of transferring files (.doc files, .mp3 files or .mp4 video files) i.e. via the USB port of my Mac. But is there a faster, easier and a wireless way to do it?
Please advice.
Thanks.

Stupid question: will i need to also install Dropcopy on my iPad 3/iPad mini in order for my files to be transferred?
Yes, it will need to,install it on any machine you wish to use it on.
also, you should spend some time on the Drobbox website to see how it works. You won't find it in the Mac App Store, but can still easily using it on a Mac.

Question about transferring settings between profiles

I'm having a problem transferring settings between profiles. The following procedure replicates the problem:
Launch Firefox with an existing profile and reconfigure the navigation toolbar so that the Stop and Reload buttons are separate.
Using Profile Manager, create a new profile; DON'T launch Firefox.
Copy file localstore.rdf from the old profile to the new profile.
Launch Firefox with the new profile and observe that the Stop and Reload buttons in the navigation toolbar are in their default, combined configuration.
Close Firefox and copy file localstore.rdf from the old profile to the new profile AGAIN.
Relaunch Firefox with the new profile and observe that the Stop and Reload buttons in the navigation toolbar are separate.
The same thing happens with bookmarks menu tweaks and file places.sqlite (I'm referring to tweaks to the menu itself, not the bookmarks).
It seems that Firefox doesn't honor some of the settings in localstore.rdf and places.sqlite the first time it is run with a new profile. Running Firefox the first time over-writes the custom settings, requiring that the files be copied a second time. Then it works as expected.
I stumbled across this while trying to pre-install Firefox v9.0.1 and my custom settings on several systems running Windows XP.
Does anyone know a work-around?

Maybe create a default template folder and place the files in that folder.

Question About Sharing Apps Between My iPhone and My Wife's iPhone

Hi, I have a question about downloading apps to my iPhone.
I ordered two iPhone 3g's - one for my wife and one for me, and I've discovered that when I download an app (even free ones) on my iPhone and then later sync it to iTunes, my wife cannot put it on her phone. However if I download it on iTunes on my computer and later sync it to my phone, then my wife is able to sync it to her phone as well. It's no big deal when they are free because she can just go get it if she wants it. I haven't purchased any apps yet, but is there a way to be able to give my wife apps that I purchase on my iPhone? Or do I need to purchase all of my [pay] apps and songs on iTunes on my computer to ensure we both have access? Or do I have it all wrong completely LOL?? This rights management stuff is confusing.
Thanks in advance for your help,
Jimmy

I had my iTunes account and phone before I got my wife's hers. When I first started, I synced hers from her account on my computer brought in my libraries and authorized her phone as one of the 5 allowed. She had all purchased apps and music. Over time we each bought music or apps on our seperate accouts. Of course, we told each other about cool apps or music we bought and wanted on our phone. When I went to sync iTunes was going to delete all music and apps and sync with the library I was logged into. Didn't want that, only work around I have found is to copy new music or new apps from one library to the other. Updating on the phone is also difficult because you can't switch between accounts so updates have to be done at the computer for apps bought under different accounts. I am sure there is a better way to do this and ask for an insight anyone would have. I hope it works out.

Sharing Files between Windows Vista and Macbook Pro

Hi everyone!
I have just bought my first Macbook Pro and I love it. I am running Windows Vista on my desktop and connect wirelessly to the internet via a Netgear router. I have managed to connect to the internet with the Macbook Pro wirelessly too.
I am not sure how to set up file sharing between the PC and Macbook - can anyone point me to some SIMPLE instructions please?
Many thanks

this is a wonderful article! thanks so much!
only one small change though. you don't really need to create another user ID to access the windows machine. i used my existing ID and it logged on fine!
but still, thanks for the rest of the article. i was totally lost without it...

Question about transfering files from FAT32 Western Digital Ext Hard Drive

I have 2 320GB External Hard Drives that I have been using for my current Windows XP PC. Today I just purchased my first Mac, the iMac and was concerned about using the Hard Drives on my Mac. I have thousands of very important files on both drives and want to make sure they are safe. I want to use the drives as backup for my iMac like I have done for my Windows PC. Will this be a problem? and what precautions should I take when using my Western Digital Hard Drive on my new Mac?

Starnerg wrote:
I intend to use it as a backup. Im not goint to be using the Windows computer anymore. I plan on copying over GB's worth of folders. Im not sure what "TM" is...
TM is TimeMachine, the built-in backup engine in Leopard. It requires HFS+ format.
If you no longer intend to use Windows, I would suggest reformatting the drives to HFS+, the standard Mac FileSystem, but of course you have to backup the data to a third drive before reformatting which will destroy all data on the drives.
If you format the third drive HFS+ then when you copy the files from the FAT32 drive you save an operation.

Question about main difference between Java bean and Java class in JSP

Hi All,
I am new to Java Bean and wonder what is the main difference to use a Bean or an Object in the jsp. I have search on the forum and find some post also asking the question but still answer my doubt. Indeed, what is the real advantage of using bean in jsp.
Let me give an example to illustrate my question:
<code>
<%@ page errorPage="errorpage.jsp" %>
<%@ page import="ShoppingCart" %>

<jsp:useBean id="cart" scope="session" class="ShoppingCart" />
<html>
<head><title>Shopping Cart</title></head>
<body bgcolor="#FFFFFF">
Your cart's ID is: <%=cart.getId()%>.
</body>
<html>
</code>
In the above code, I can also create a object of ShoppingCart by new operator then get the id at the following way.
<code>
<%
ShoppingCart cart = new ShoppingCart();
out.println(cart.getId());
%>
</code>
Now my question is what is the difference between the two method? As in my mind, a normal class can also have it setter and getter methods for its properties. But someone may say that, there is a scope="session", which can be declared in an normal object. It may be a point but it can be easily solved but putting the object in session by "session.setAttribute("cart", cart)".
I have been searching on this issue on the internet for a long time and most of them just say someting like "persistance of state", "bean follow some conventions of naming", "bean must implement ser" and so on. All of above can be solved by other means, for example, a normal class can also follow the convention. I am really get confused with it, and really want to know what is the main point(s) of using the java bean.
Any help will be highly apprecaited. Thanks!!!

Hi All,
I am new to Java Bean and wonder what is the main
difference to use a Bean or an Object in the jsp. The first thing to realize is that JavaBeans are just Plain Old Java Objects (POJOs) that follow a specific set of semantics (get/set methods, etc...). So what is the difference between a Bean and an Object? Nothing.
<jsp:useBean id="cart" scope="session" class="ShoppingCart" />
In the above code, I can also create a object of
ShoppingCart by new operator then get the id at the
following way.
ShoppingCart cart = new ShoppingCart();
out.println(cart.getId());
...Sure you could. And if the Cart was in a package (it has to be) you also need to put an import statement in. Oh, and to make sure the object is accessable in the same scope, you have to put it into the PageContext scope. And to totally equal, you first check to see if that object already exists in scope. So to get the equivalant of this:
<jsp:useBean id="cart" class="my.pack.ShoppingCart"/>Then your scriptlet looks like this:
<%@ page import="my.pack.ShoppingCart %>
<%
ShoppingCart cart = pageContext.getAttribute("cart");
if (cart == null) {
    cart = new ShoppingCart();
    pageContext.setAttribute("cart", cart);
%>So it is a lot more work.
As in my mind, a normal class can also
have it setter and getter methods for its properties.True ... See below.
But someone may say that, there is a scope="session",
which can be declared in an normal object.As long as the object is serializeable, yes.
It may be
a point but it can be easily solved but putting the
object in session by "session.setAttribute("cart",
cart)".Possible, but if the object isn't serializable it can be unsafe. As the point I mentioned above, the useBean tag allows you to check if the bean exists already, and use that, or make a new one if it does not yet exist in one line. A lot easier than the code you need to use otherwise.
I have been searching on this issue on the internet
for a long time and most of them just say someting
like "persistance of state", "bean follow some
conventions of naming", "bean must implement ser" and
so on. Right, that would go along the lines of the definition of what a JavaBean is.
All of above can be solved by other means, for
example, a normal class can also follow the
convention. And if it does - then it is a JavaBean! A JavaBean is any Object whose class definition would include all of the following:
1) A public, no-argument constructor
2) Implements Serializeable
3) Properties are revealed through public mutator methods (void return type, start with 'set' have a single Object parameter list) and public accessor methods (Object return type, void parameter list, begin with 'get').
4) Contain any necessary event handling methods. Depending on the purpose of the bean, you may include event handlers for when the properties change.
I am really get confused with it, and
really want to know what is the main point(s) of
using the java bean.JavaBeans are normal objects that follow these conventions. Because they do, then you can access them through simplified means. For example, One way of having an object in session that contains data I want to print our might be:
<%@ page import="my.pack.ShoppingCart %>
<%
ShoppingCart cart = session.getAttribute("cart");
if (cart == null) {
    cart = new ShoppingCart();
    session.setAttribute("cart", cart);
%>Then later where I want to print a total:
<% out.print(cart.getTotal() %>Or, if the cart is a JavaBean I could do this:
<jsp:useBean id="cart" class="my.pack.ShoppingCart" scope="session"/>
Then later on:
<jsp:getProperty name="cart" property="total"/>
Or perhaps I want to set some properties on the object that I get off of the URL's parameter group. I could do this:
<%
ShoppingCart cart = session.getAttribute("cart");
if (cart == null) {
    cart = new ShoppingCart();
    cart.setCreditCard(request.getParameter("creditCard"));
    cart.setFirstName(request.getParameter("firstName"));
    cart.setLastName(request.getParameter("lastName"));
    cart.setBillingAddress1(request.getParameter("billingAddress1"));
    cart.setBillingAddress2(request.getParameter("billingAddress2"));
    cart.setZipCode(request.getParameter("zipCode"));
    cart.setRegion(request.getParameter("region"));
    cart.setCountry(request.getParameter("country"));
    pageContext.setAttribute("cart", cart);
    session.setAttribute("cart", cart);
}Or you could use:
<jsp:useBean id="cart" class="my.pack.ShoppingCart" scope="session">
<jsp:setProperty name="cart" property="*"/>
</jsp:useBean>The second seems easier to me.
It also allows you to use your objects in more varied cases - for example, JSTL (the standard tag libraries) and EL (expression language) only work with JavaBeans (objects that follow the JavaBeans conventions) because they expect objects to have the no-arg constuctor, and properties accessed/changed via getXXX and setXXX methods.

Transferring files between MacBook Pro and PC

First, what's the best way to copy files back and forth between a MacBook Pro and a 5-year-old Dell PC? Would I use a "firewire"? (Is that the same thing as a USB?)
Next, I've heard that there's some way to automate the process so that you can copy and paste or drag and drop an item to a certain location on one computer, and it's automatically transported to a certain location on the other computer. For example, suppose I'm modifying some Dreamweaver files on my PC, and I want to copy them a local website on my MacBook. Can this be done?
I have an external hard drive that I use to back up data from my PC. I discovered that I can connect it to my MacBook. However, it's a somewhat tedious process.
Thanks.

In actual fact the simplest is just to use a flash USB thumb drive.

Porblem migrating the profile file between Windows XP and Windows 7 64 bit

I have purchased a new Windows 7 64 bit computer. My old computer was a 32 bit Windows XP. I cannot get the new computer's Firefox version 18 to read the profile data from my old XP computer. I have renamed the old profile file to the correct name for the new computer but none of the bookmarks, passwords, add-ons etc. appear in my new computers Firefox. The correct profile file is being accessed by the new computer as I can see the modification time etc is changing when using windows explorer. Is the new computer being a 64 bit the problem or is there some way that I can get the old profile migration to work or do I just have to start again from scratch?
Will I have a similar problem with Thunderbird?

It is better to only copy the files that you need from the old profile to the current Firefox Profile Folder to avoid issues and you also need the profiles.ini files in such a case.

Transfer files between Macintosh Plus and Mac OS X

I recently bought myself a beatiful Mac Plus. Now I'd like to put some classic software to the guy, and why not, even some games. Start doing little work with the Plus.
So, what are the options here? How can I bridge the Macintosh Plus and my Lion-equipped iMac? Yes, that's pretty hard. My findings where posts about Ethernet-LocalTalk bridge hardware, Serial-to-USB adapters in order to perform a serial connection with Terminal and even getting a ZIP drive. And the most popular finding: A bridge Mac like a PowerBook G3 (Serial port + Ethernet connection).
Where can I start? I'd like to listen your experiences.
Tino.

The first thing you need to do to play with any older - 1980's Mac is to use the external SCSI port. Find an external SCSI hard drive or Zip drive. Do not spend too much on the Zip drive in case it suffers from the 'click of death.' That is a technical term. Just get a return guarantee if you spend more than two bucks on the Zip drive.
You can make an external hard drive bay out of a CD-ROM case by pulling the optical drive out and replacing it with a hard drive. We never put the covers back on because they just slow us down while testing drives.
You will need to learn about SCSI ID assignments.
Once you have external SCSI options, you can take files to a bridge machine. A platinum G3 desktop makes a good transition machine, especially if it has a USB card.
The next thing to worry about is changing file structures. OS X will show a file as a generic executable file if it does not know what to do with it. Better to leave old files compressed with Stuffit until you get it to the Plus. Otherwise, OS X will tamper with it. There are smarter guys on that subject than me. I have the luxury of having several bridge machines so I have not had to learn the technical software/file structure side of what happens. I just know it happens and I change machines to get around the file corruption.
Good luck and have fun.

Need to Share Keyboard, Video, and Mouse Between Windows Laptop and Mac

I need a Mac that shares a keyboard, video, and mouse with my company issued Windows laptop. Usually this just requires a KVM switch but the current iMac has no video input. Subsequently, I can't feed video from the Windows laptop to the iMac's screen.
_Are these the only solutions for my situation?_
1) Buy a Mac Mini and share a separate LCD (Too underpowered for me)
2) Buy a Mac Workstation and share a separate LCD (Too overpowered and pricey for me)
3) Buy a MacBook Pro (Might work but I am wasting $ since I don't need portability)
4) Wait for new iMac that MAY have an input (Like it should already!) Anybody have any info on this!?
Many Thanks!

I think what you are looking for is an open souce program called Synergy that works on both Mac and PC to give you a software KV(not M).
You set one machine up as the server, and the other as a client. The server will then control the control the keyboard and mouse of the client machine.
The alternate is Microsofts virtual screen sharing that allows you to see and control your windows machine in a window on your Mac. All of these require some set up, so you might want to check with your works IT dept.

My MBA is being shipped, question about transferring files from old PB

Hey guys,
I just ordered a new 13" MBA and am anxiously awaiting for it to arrive... I currently have a 12" Powerbook G4 with 10.5.8 that I use an external drive to back up with time machine.
My question is this; when I get my MBA will I be able to use the time machine back up to migrate my files even though my old computer has an older version of Mac OS on it?

A Basic Guide for Migrating to Intel-Macs
The Knowledgebase article Intel-based Mac: Some migrated applications may need to be updated refers to methods of dealing with migrating from PowerPC chips to Intel with the Migration Assistant safely. The authors of this tip have not had a chance to verify this works in all instances, or that it avoids the 10.6.1 and earlier Guest Account bug that caused account information to get deleted upon use of the Migration/Setup Assistant. However, a well backed up source that includes at least two backups of all the data that are not connected to your machine will help you avoid potential issues, should they arise. In event it does not work, follow the steps below.
If you are migrating a PowerPC system (G3, G4, or G5) to an Intel-Mac be careful what you migrate. Keep in mind that some items that may get transferred will not work on Intel machines and may end up causing your computer's operating system to malfunction.
Rosetta supports "software that runs on the PowerPC G3, G4, or G5 processor that are built for Mac OS X". This excludes the items that are not universal binaries or simply will not work in Rosetta:
Classic Environment, and subsequently any Mac OS 9 or earlier applications
Screensavers written for the PowerPC
System Preference add-ons
All Unsanity Haxies
Browser and other plug-ins
Contextual Menu Items
Applications which specifically require the PowerPC G5
Kernel extensions
Java applications with JNI (PowerPC) libraries
See also What Can Be Translated by Rosetta.
In addition to the above you could also have problems with migrated cache files and/or cache files containing code that is incompatible.
If you migrate a user folder that contains any of these items, you may find that your Intel-Mac is malfunctioning. It would be wise to take care when migrating your systems from a PowerPC platform to an Intel-Mac platform to assure that you do not migrate these incompatible items.
If you have problems with applications not working, then completely uninstall said application and reinstall it from scratch. Take great care with Java applications and Java-based Peer-to-Peer applications. Many Java apps will not work on Intel-Macs as they are currently compiled. As of this time Limewire, Cabos, and Acquisition are available as universal binaries. Do not install browser plug-ins such as Flash or Shockwave from downloaded installers unless they are universal binaries. The version of OS X installed on your Intel-Mac comes with special compatible versions of Flash and Shockwave plug-ins for use with your browser.
The same problem will exist for any hardware drivers such as mouse software unless the drivers have been compiled as universal binaries. For third-party mice the current choices are USB Overdrive or SteerMouse. Contact the developer or manufacturer of your third-party mouse software to find out when a universal binary version will be available.
Also be careful with some backup utilities and third-party disk repair utilities. Disk Warrior 4.1, TechTool Pro 4.6.1, SuperDuper 2.5, and Drive Genius 2.0.2 work properly on Intel-Macs with Leopard. The same caution may apply to the many "maintenance" utilities that have not yet been converted to universal binaries. Leopard Cache Cleaner, Onyx, TinkerTool System, and Cocktail are now compatible with Leopard.
Before migrating or installing software on your Intel-Mac check MacFixit's Rosetta Compatibility Index.

Transferring data with Setup Assistant - Migration Assistant FAQ
Because Migration Assistant isn't the ideal way to migrate from PowerPC to Intel Macs, using Target Disk Mode, copying the critical contents to CD and DVD, an external hard drive, or networking
will work better when moving from PowerPC to Intel Macs. The initial section below discusses Target Disk Mode. It is then followed by a section which discusses networking with Macs that lack Firewire.
If both computers support the use of Firewire then you can use the following instructions:
1. Repair the hard drive and permissions using Disk Utility.
2. Backup your data. This is vitally important in case you make a mistake or there's some other problem.
3. Connect a Firewire cable between your old Mac and your new Intel Mac.
4. Startup your old Mac in Target Disk Mode.
5. Startup your new Mac for the first time, go through the setup and registration screens, but do NOT migrate data over. Get to your desktop on the new Mac without migrating any new data over.
If you are not able to use a Firewire connection (for example you have a Late 2008 MacBook that only supports USB:)
1. Set up a local home network: Creating a small Ethernet Network.
2. If you have a MacBook Air or Late 2008 MacBook see the following:

MacBook Air- Migration Tips and Tricks;
MacBook Air- Remote Disc, Migration, or Remote Install Mac OS X and wireless 802.11n networks.
Copy the following items from your old Mac to the new Mac:
In your /Home/ folder: Documents, Movies, Music, Pictures, and Sites folders.
In your /Home/Library/ folder:
/Home/Library/Application Support/AddressBook (copy the whole folder)
/Home/Library/Application Support/iCal (copy the whole folder)
Also in /Home/Library/Application Support (copy whatever else you need including folders for any third-party applications)
/Home/Library/Keychains (copy the whole folder)
/Home/Library/Mail (copy the whole folder)
/Home/Library/Preferences/ (copy the whole folder)
/Home /Library/Calendars (copy the whole folder)
/Home /Library/iTunes (copy the whole folder)
/Home /Library/Safari (copy the whole folder)
If you want cookies:
/Home/Library/Cookies/Cookies.plist
/Home/Library/Application Support/WebFoundation/HTTPCookies.plist
For Entourage users:
Entourage is in /Home/Documents/Microsoft User Data
Also in /Home/Library/Preferences/Microsoft
Credit goes to Macjack for this information.
If you need to transfer data for other applications please ask the vendor or ask in the Discussions where specific applications store their data.
5. Once you have transferred what you need restart the new Mac and test to make sure the contents are there for each of the applications.
