  • How to remove the stand of iMac 27 with retina

    I buy a 27' iMac in US and am going to bring it back to China next week.
    I'm going to remove the stand, and put the iMac to my 30' luggage. I've tested, it can be hold in the luggage, but the question is how to remove the stand "elegantly" because it's whole new and I don't want it to be "fixed"? Is that possible?

    Good morning, Macwhy.
    The best box you can get is the original packing it came in.   It would have to travel as accompanied Luggage and I strongly advise you to insure it for its purchase cost if bought in China.  I would also back up the content on a separate drive.   Thank you for the stars and good luck with the move.

  • How i remove the stand from an Intel iMac 17"  ???

    Please help...is it possible to remove the stand from an intel based imac 17" . If yes how i do it?
    Thank you

    Only the 24" iMac models have user removable stands. To remove the stands from the 17" & 20" models requires opening and some disassembly of the computer. This is complicated and difficult, and would most likely void any warranty you have left on the machine if it was not done by a Certified Apple Technician.
    But it has been done by some users in the past;
    Why no VESA mount!? grrrr....

  • How do I remove the stand from my 24' intel imac model ( A1225)

    Hello, I am moving my imac 24' from Europe to the states in my baggage. The stand mustbe removed to fit it in. Some models allow a business card or credit card to insert in the lever of the stand and the back of the imac housing where the stand is attached to. Thus oin pulling the stand levekl down with the acard inserted you will see a few srerws to unscrew to removing the stand. This is not with this imac 24' intel model number (A1225)
    Are there any tips or help that one knows to removing the stand?
    Thanks..

    ==> Removing the 2007 24" iMac aluminum stand
    ==> Removing a VESA mount and replacing the aluminum stand
    I recently inherited a 2007 24" iMac that had been VESA mounted.  I searched all the online boards to figure out how to remove the VESA bracket and install the aluminum stand that I bought on Ebay.  Despite 6 years since the iMac was made, I really didn't feel the online posts gave a clear answer, so I felt compelled to give my input.
    First, the 'latch' mechanism that locks and unlocks the stand/VESA mount is RIGHT next to the top of the slot -- it's about 1/16" into the casing and shaped like a shallow L-shaped ledge that extends most of the length of the slot.  Here's a very effective way to hit it:
    * uninstalling stand;  put the computer on a bed at the edge; push the stand downward, somewhat hard, then slip a business card into the top of the slot,slanted 45 degrees upward.  do not push the business card hard at all.  it will hit the ledge/lever quickly.  leave it there.  now, insert a drivers license or credit card ON TOP of the business card, so it hits same ledge/lever but with more strength.  push a bit and start wiggling the stand.  the latch will release and you can now push the stand down to lock in the extended position, then remove the screws, install the VESA
    * uninstalling VESA:  the stand mechanism is already in the LOCKED/out position.  I spent about an hour trying to get it to lock into the extended position.  wrong.  it's already extended.  once you remove the VESA, install your stand, then follow the above guidance to unlock that mechanism and get your computer back upright.
    There are a lot of threads on this topic.  I hope this helps some.  My main insights are two;  1) the latch/ledge is very close to the top of the slot, and 2) that ledge can be caught fairly easily by pushing the stand down and using a flexible cardboard business card, then superimposing a harder plastic card on top while you wiggle the stand.

  • Taking my 20" Cinema display on the road; how do I remove the stand?

    Hi everyone,
    I'm planning to do alot of work on location this summer and would like to find a way to remove the stand attached to my 20" LCD Cinema Display so that I can pack them both into a smaller case. I've just removed the allen key cover on the right hand side (from the front) and was presented with a more complicated challenge inside the mount. It seemed to me to be a good time to consult the support forum before things went horribly wrong....
    Are there instructions anywhere that show how to dissasemble the hinge where the display meets the stand? Without destroying either?
    Can anyone recommend a lie-flat/two piece stand I can take with me on location?
    Many thanks,
    Andrew

    Look at me; I'm clever.
    Solution found at http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/073-0933.pdf
    After removing the two screws, the stand didn't want to pull off easily and I thought it may still be attached. It turns out that the attachment point was just sticky and needed a firm pull.
    Thanks internet!

  • How do i remove the stand

    How do i go about removing the stand? I have no choice but to remove it cos then I can pop it in a backpack and carry it on a plane. someone please help
    Cheers

    If you fave a Rev A (first edition) or a Rev. B (Ambient Light Sensor) you can remove the stand by removing the back of the computer and disconnectiong the stand from the inside. The current (Rev C, iSight) model does not have a removable stand.
    A word of caution, the only real reason to remove the stand was to use a wall mount device. Leaving the stamnd off will leave a hole in the back of the computer and will allow dirt and/or other foreign objects to get into the computer.
    Proceed with caution.

  • Has anyone removed the stand from the monitor?

    I love my 30" Cinema Display, but it sits too high on my desk, and find myself tilting my head up to see towards the top of the screen. I hate the thought of modifying the work of art that it is, but if I removed the stand, it would sit perfectly at eye-level. Obviously, I would have to make a stand/support to allow it to be free-standing. Either that or modify the desk itself. Has anyone tried removing the stand from the monitor? Feedback?

    As NullUnit mentioned, it is quite easy to remove the stand but you will need the VESA adapter kit to replace it. This will give you the standard 100mm VESA mounting holes that you would then connect to any mounting arm you wish.
    Personally I bought this MX Desk Mount Arm as it was rated to hold the weight of the display (~30#) whereas others were not (~18#). I originally mounted the display in a vertical/portrait orientation but the arm didn't go high enough so I had to mount a 6" block of wood to my desk first. I enjoyed the monitor so much that I have since moved it to become my primary monitor. The arm allowed me to lower the display all the way to my desk so I could just look over it (to watch TV). Couldn't have if it was still on the stand.
    Hope this helps.

  • Mailbox cleanup could not completely remove the mailbox for user

    Hello.
    I have Exchange 2010SP3 2 DAG member in cluster.
    Recently i have warning in app log on a second DAG member:
    Mailbox cleanup could not completely remove the mailbox for user GUID.Encountered error 0xfffffae8. Should this message continue to persist for the same mailbox, it may be indicative of a problem that requires further investigation. 
    I read all post wich say just unmount and mount database.
    I can't find any user wich have guid containted in error.
    So that i need to do?
    Can i use StartDAGmaintenance and reboot a server,then after reboot use StopDAGmaintenance?

    Hi,
    I suggest to refer to this blog to find this mailbox by GUID.
    http://blogs.technet.com/b/ehlro/archive/2010/04/22/how-to-find-the-object-that-belongs-to-a-guid.aspx
    Then check which database this mailbox belongs to, dismount and mount this database.

  • Modify the Data Load wizard to remove the check for unique columns

    Hi,
    I'm trying to make a Data Loading Wizard into my application, which basically works nice except for one thing:
    I want to remove the check for unique columns, and insert ALL data which the users wants to upload.
    (Like the Data load utility under development).
    The reason is, that the data I want to upload is an export from my bank statements (in XLS / CSV format)
    And these exports don't have any primary key.
    Using the Apex wizard created Data Upload pages, I will loose data in case I had two identical payments in a day.
    Is there a way to do this, while keeping the pages created by the wizard to make Data Loading pages?
    apex 4.2.1

    I would suggest to load the data into a view and process the records into the real table(s) with instead-of-triggers. When you add a "1=2" where clause to the view, there never is any data and everything will be loaded.
    Otherwise you have to have a "real" PK value, like a timestamp or a statement_nr+line_nr.

  • How do I remove the requirement for a signature from a PDF?

    I can't have my associates and customers signing a document that does not require their signature. How do I remove this requirement from the PDF?
    (Yes, I have seen the other threads on this subject but the registry entries described are not in my registry and merely disabling the user interface doesn't remove the REQUIREMENT for the signature in the first place.)
    Thank you,

    You can set standard password security by selecting: FIle > Properties > Security > Security Method > Password Security
    and in the dialog that's presented, set the security restrictions so that no changes are allowed, or to whatever else you want.

  • Can not input data when removed the value for seleciton condition

    Dear Experts,
    We met a very strange issue for the IP.
    We create a aggregation level and relatd query for user to key in data.
    We have a filter in the aggregation level.
    It will set value for A,B,C,D
    When user opent he report, system will require user to key in the value for A,B,C,D.
    Now we found that if we key in value for B, cell is input ready.
    If we removed the value in for the B in the selection condition (I mean the value of B is empty, this means tha all the value of B will display in the report), we can not key in data.
    Could you kindly let me kow the reason?
    Thanks and best regards
    Alex yang

    Dear Experts,
    Many thanks for your information.
    I know the principle for the IP.
    But I think you may misunderstanding this issue due to my incorrect explaination.
    First, we think the aggreagtion level is ok. This is due to that for the B in my example, we set its as column value in the query.
    This is means for each record in the IP query, it has only one B value to reflect it.
    But strange things is that if we set fixed value for B, IP input is ok.
    If we removed fixed value for B, IP function is error.
    Now, we will test if we key in multi value for B whether IP input function is ok or not.
    Any update, I will inform you.
    Thanks and best regards

  • How to remove the '#'symbols for infoobject movement types in bex reporting

    Hi All,
      I have a problem in Bex reporting. The problem is when ever executing the report  that time some of the characteristic values is shown in layout '#' Symbols. i want to remove the '#' valuse in report.
    is it possible please give me step by step procedure for how to remove the '#' Symbols in reporing layout.
    this is very urgent please help to me on this issue.
    Thanks & Regards,
    Guna.

    Hi Guna,
    To achieve this issue, we need to replace the value of ‘#’, we need to change the description while retrieving the data from tables. So we need to write some ABAP code in SE38. Go to RSA1 transaction and go to Info objects tab. Then go to context menu for ‘cProject Key Figures’ as shown below. Click on the ‘Object Overview’ to get the overview of all the info objects. Here you can see the field names which are used to know the table names.
    In SE11, type the table name in ‘Database Table’ field. Now press ‘F4’, then you will get the next screen to select one of the P/Q/S/T tables.
    Now click on the button rounded in the below screen to view the data in the table.
    Now click the execute button or press ‘F8’ to view the records.
    Now go to Tcode: SE38. Create a source code and give some program name for that source code. To write code, you need access key. Contact your BASIS for this.
    Now write the below code for that particular table in which you want to change the value ‘#’ to description ‘Blank’. In the below source code, we are updating particular table, setting the field as ‘Blank’ where it is null or no value. Here the field will automatically get updated to ‘#’ if there is no value or null.
    update /BIC/PXXXXX set /BIC/ZXXXX = 'Blank' where /BIC/ZXXXXX is null or /BIC/ZXXXX = ''.
    if sy-subrc eq 0.
    write 'successful'.
    commit work.
    else.
    write 'unsuccessful'.
    endif.
    OR
    If this # is because of the missing master data than,
    right click that IO -> maintain master
    you will see first row as a blank.
    whatever value you maintain in this row that will come in the report for all Not assigned # values of the master data in the report.
    maintain it according to your requirement, save and activate the master data
    Hope this helps u...

  • Remove the toolbar for the LSO Content Player Window.

    Hi All,
            We are implementing SAP LSO. In the BSP Application HCM_Learning, I am able to run the course by clicking on link 'Start Now'. The BSP page related to this is "Training Home.htm".
    Now a new window popup up ( ie) the content player popup in a new window and plays the course. I want to remove the toolbar from this new popup window.
    I changed the toolbar value from yes to no in the Function Popup() defined .
    function popup(t, b)
             thePopup = window.open (b,t,"toolbar=no,menubar=no,width=300,height=250,scrollbars,resizable");
              thePopup.focus();
    But still i'm getting that toolbar in the popup window.
    How can i resolve this.?
    Please give me your valuable inputs.
    Thanks,
    Eben Joyson.

    Hey Ravi,
    Thanks for sharing your perspective. 
    After thinking further about the real estate question, I believe that, at least in the US, most instructional designers aim to present content at 800x600 pixel size.  This accounts for differing monitor sizes, etc.  If this is the case, then good instructional design (e.g. don't put too much content on a screen at once) should assure that content could be played in-line (in the BSP page).  Since the navigational controls are at the bottom, that wouldn't have any effect on width of the page and could also be accommodated.
    I'm still of the opinion that SAP LSO (and all leading LMS systems) should evolve to presenting content in the base window.  Perhaps there are some extreme exceptions where the extra real estate would make a true difference.  In that case, perhaps the learner should be offered an LSO learner setting where they can choose to display content in-line or in a separate window....let them decide   Alternatively, one could offer the Training Administrator an infotype setting where they specify whether the content should be displayed in-line (default) versus in a separate popup (this could be used on an exception basis).
