Running Time Machine for the first time, how that I make sure that some information I have in the external drive does not get erase in the prosess

1. Quit iPhoto
2. Copy the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to the External Disk.
3. Hold down the option (or alt) key while launching iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library' and navigate to the new location. From that point on this will be the default location of your library.
4. Test the library and when you're sure all is well, trash the one on your internal HD to free up space.
Note: This is now your Library. It's not a Back Up, and you need another disk for backing up.

HT1349 we both have the same Iphone, how can we make sure that we both have different account on the same network?

my partner and i have the same models of Iphone. how can we make sure that when she logs on to our home network, it recognises her phone and doesn't down load to my phone?

Did you try to rename one of them? iTunes: How to rename your device
iTunes remembers the settings for each phone when you sync, even if both phones are called "My iPhone".
So make sure to set it up like you want to, after that iTunes will do the rest.

Hi,
Please help me with the below issue, iam trying to deploy Service pack 1 on Windows 7 , 32 Bit OS

also it gets installed through sccm when the machine is set to english language,
Thank you

Hi Friends,
we are deploying the SP1 via SCCM 2012 , and the success rate is around 50 %, its a Light touch installation where user will initiate the installation via Software Center ( Web based )
i was able to gather few errors , and this are the errors which failed during SP1 Installation 0x800f0828,
some errors which sccm reports display are
11171
10008
10021-
17031 -
1602 - User Cancelled installation
113 - No more internal file identifiers available
10070 - File handle reference is no longer available
10050 - A socket operation encountered a dead network
11170 - The task sequence manager could not successfully complete execution of the task sequence
i could not find the reason for some of the errors, also i am looking for a fix/woraround if any
Also i have noticed that in few computers the task seq failed at a place where after the sp1 installation a reboot happens and then PGP BYPASS utility is uninstalled, it did not start the PGP bypass uninstall after reboot
is there a way to cut short the Task seq and keep it simple ?
right now its like this
1. checking for prerequisite : checks for OS Name and OS version
2. installs PGP Bootgaurd Bypass
3. System Restart
4. Installing Windows 7 Service Pack 1
5. Final Restart
6. uninstall PGP Bootgaurd Bypass

Would like to verify Time Machine backup but when I enter TM and then open iPhoto, it only provides me a gray window telling me the size of the file. How do I make sure all iPhoto pictures have been backed up on Time Machine?

Yes, that's for network backups only.
What can I do to make sure that the backups are OK?
You can tell if the File System (the various directories, catalogs etc.) is ok by repairing your backup drive, per #A5 in Time Machine - Troubleshooting.
You can "spot check" whether the Time Machine "Star Wars" display seems correct.
You can do a full system restore to another disk per #14 in Time Machine - Frequently Asked Questions, then start up from it and see if things are there and seem to work.
You can keep "secondary" backups (always a good idea). See #27 in the FAQ post for some suggestions.

External drive does not show up in Time Machine

I just applied the lastest update today and now my external drive does not show up in Time Machine. It does show up in Finder.

Gracias Sir Kappy, These instructions didn't include Yosemite, but I followed the closest and used Mavericks instructions and the command-R was the key, which I suppose means 'restore?' Nothing is explained as we should all be able to read the programmers minds by now...
Thanks for the help and problem resolved.

I purchased three albums last week and only two of them were charged. How can I make sure that the third album gets charged in a timely fashion?

Well, thanks for feeling with me, patkosanke ... AND for your wise advice.
I did followed your advice immediately and erased all the service number as well as S/Ns.
Can you, however, give me any "direct number" through which I can get hold of someone and request for what you're suggesting?
I believe I had talked with the person by the name of "Charlie" (I think... I hope I'm correct...) when I was having the same problem with the last device. He was very kind and helpful, though I ended up getting the device that brought the same problem.
Charlie told me that if I had any more problems I should call him. But I forgot to take down his direct number.
Or maybe I should call the main office and ask for him. But my memory is questionable as to his name, and besides I don't even know his last name either. There could be more than one "Charlies" in Palm.
So, if you could somehow email me some direct number (other than the one that keeps on hooking me up with those people in the overseas who are answering the phone only to sympathize with & apologize to me but can only issue a false hope with the SRO#. More than once I was given the promise that the supervisor would call me back within an hour or two but I ended up calling back after I had been left hanging in the air all night long.) where I can talk to someone like I did with Charlie last time who can truly carry out the promise, I would truly appreciate it, patkosanke. ^^
Thanks

I have just switched to samsung and i have removed the sim from the iphone however i am still receiving texts rather 'imessage' on the old iphone. how do i make sure all messages only come to my new phone??

You can turn iMessage off on your iPhone. That's relatively easy. Since iMessage is an Apple product/service, I have no idea how a Samsung phone will deal with an incoming one. For that answer you should probably contact Samsung support.

I have changed the email signature on my iPhone, when composing a new email the signature is there, however when I am replying to an email it is not, how can I make sure that the signature is at the end of every email I send?

Yes I know what you mean about it cluttering the thread and for personal emails it is better without the signature. However this relates to sending business emails from an iPhone so I need the signature present on every email.
I can't find anything in Settings so I was hoping someone may have some knowledge/information/experience regarding this problem.

When trying to locate songs in my iTunes library, often when I find the song it asks me if I would like it to find other missing files. Sometimes it can't find other missing songs. How do I make sure that it is looking at all of my hard dirves?

Locating missing songs in my iTunes library. How do you make sure that all drives are being looked at for the missing songs?

To import music into your iTunes library on the computer go to iTunes>Help>iTunes Help>Add items to iTunes and follow the instructions
Delete the "songs" that do not play in your iTunes library and reimport them.

HT1751 Not all the music I have in Itunes is in the Itunes library, how do I make sure all is there to transfer to new computer

I am trying to move my Itunes Library to a different computer. When I put the Itunes library onto the external hard drive it only had a portion of the songs. Alot did not copy over. How do I make sure that all the songs in Itunes are in the Itunes Library stored on my computer?

These are two possible approaches that will normally work to move an existing library to a new computer.
Method 1
Backup the library with this User Tip.
Deauthorize the old computer if you no longer want to access protected content on it.
Restore the backup to your new computer using the same tool used to back it up.
Keep your backup up-to-date in future.
Method 2
Connect the two computers to the same network. Share your <User's Music> folder from the old computer and copy the entire iTunes library folder into the <User's Music> folder on the new one. Again, deauthorize the old computer if no longer required.
Both methods should give the new computer a working clone of the library that was on the old one. As far as iTunes is concerned this is still the "home" library for your devices so you shouldn't have any issues with iTunes wanting to erase and reload.
I'd recommend method 1 since it establishes an ongoing backup for your library.
Note if you have iOS devices and haven't moved your contacts and calendar items across then you should create one dummy entry of each in your new profile and iTunes should merge the existing data from the device.
If your media folder has been split out from the main iTunes folder you may need to do some preparatory work to make it easier to move. See make a split library portable.
Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library or a backup then then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device for advice on how to set up your devices with a new library with the maximum preservation of data.

EDiscovery_SharePoint 2013_After a set of content is placed on hold in a location, how do I make sure that anything added to the same location

Hi everyone,
After a set of content is placed on hold in a location, how do I make sure that anything added to the same location,that meets the filter (e.g. keyword) gets added to the hold automatically ?
Right now the only way I can do this is to take off the hold ,re-apply the filter to the source and then enable the hold. That isn't sustainable.

@arcycapa,
If you have a Mac, you can download iDentify2 (http://identify2.arrmihardies.com/). It is free. You can use that change or set your contentRating. If you are on Windows, there is a commercial tool called MetaX. or download a free command line tool called AtomicParsley from (https://bitbucket.org/wez/atomicparsley). Unzip the file and run this command (AtomicParsley "C:/Users/Home Videos/name of the file.mp4" --contentRating R) from the DOS prompt without the parenthesis. Please keep in mind the forward slash in the path name listed above. This would generate a temp file. You can rename the temp file to the original file name. Just a word of caution, please make a copy of your original file somewhere. Just in case.

if you try to install an app that depends on adobe air, you should be prompted to download and install adobe air (unless it's already installed).
you can download and install directly so you're not prompted by that app, Adobe - Adobe AIR

I have just installed a new hard drive in my imac intel 20" (2006) and now the hard drive does not show up in the 'select destinations' folder of the install program.

I have just installed a new hard drive in my imac intel 20" (2006) and upgraded the memory and now the hard drive does not show up in the 'select destinations' folder of the install program. I can see the hard drive in the disk utilities window however it wont let me do anything.
It is a seagate 1TB SATA II drive however it is displaying it as a 7.3 TB.
If anyone has any suggestions I would be happy to hear them.
I have tried to erase and partition and get the same error message each time, 'Input/Output error'.
I have tried starting the thing with the install disk which is Mac OS X (Tiger?) which came with the computer. No good.
Anyone?

Thats correct. I can see it in the list however when I attempt to erase it or partition it it's like it's not being found or recognised and it throws up the input/output error message. I am pretty sure that the sensor it attached correctly and it is a SATA drive. I can see all the infor regarding the drive when disk utility is open and it all looks good but I cant access it or do anything with it. It's taunting me!
The install disk is in the drive and the install program runs right up to the point where you have to select the location for the install and there is just nothing in the box where you have to select the hard drive icon.
I have my suspiscions about the drive but any help would be appreciated.

How can I make sure that in RAM our sql server is not facing any mermory crunch issue?

The SQL server process always show RAM is highly used while its a default behaviour of sql server.

The best way to make sure you are not facing memory pressure is to use perfmon counters and monitor various memory counters
For SQL Server 2005 - 2008 r2 use below counters
SQLServer:Buffer Manager--Buffer Cache hit ratio(BCHR): IIf your BCHR is high 90 to 100 Then it points to fact that You don't have memory pressure. Keep in mind that suppose somebody runs a query which request large amount of pages in that
case momentarily BCHR might come down to 60 or 70 may be less but that does not means it is a memory pressure it means your query requires large memory and will take it. After that query completes you will see BCHR risiing again
SQLServer:Buffer Manager--Page Life Expectancy(PLE): PLE shows for how long page remain in buffer pool. The longer it stays the better it is. Its common misconception to take 300 as a baseline for PLE. But it is not,I read it from
Jonathan Kehayias book( troubleshooting SQL Server) that this value was baseline when SQL Server was of 2000 version and max RAM one could see was from 4-6 G. Now with 200G or RAM coming into picture this value is not correct. He also gave the formula( tentative)
how to calculate it. Take the base counter value of 300 presented by most resources, and then determine a multiple of this value based on the configured buffer cache size, which is the 'max server memory' sp_ configure option in SQL Server, divided by 4 GB.
So, for a server with 32 GB allocated to the buffer pool, the PLE value should be at least (32/4)*300 = 2400. So far this has done good to me so I would recommend you to use it.
SQLServer:Buffer Manager--CheckpointPages/sec: Checkpoint pages /sec counter is important to know about memory pressure because if buffer cache is low then lots of new pages needs to be brought into and flushed out from buffer pool,
due to load checkpoint's work will increase and will start flushing out dirty pages very frequently. If this counter is high then your SQL Server buffer pool is not able to cope up with requests coming and we need to increase it by increasing buffer pool memory
or by increasing physical RAM and then making adequate changes in Buffer pool size. Technically this value should be low if you are looking at line graph in perfmon this value should always touch base for stable system.
SQLServer:Buffer Manager--Freepages: This value should not be less you always want to see high value for it.
SQLServer:Memory Manager--Memory Grants Pending: If you see
memory grants pending in buffer pool your server is facing SQL Server memory crunch and increasing memory would be a good idea. For memory grants please read this article:
SQLServer:memory Manager--Target Server Memory: This is amount of memory SQL Server is trying to acquire.
SQLServer:memory Manager--Total Server memory This is current memory SQL Server has acquired.
8. Free List Stalls/sec – Number of requests per second that had to wait for a free page
9. Free Pages – Total number of pages on all free lists (free lists track all of the pages in the buffer pool that are not currently allocate to a data page, and are therefore available for usage immediately)
NOTE: If you have NUMA system don't use PLE to monitor memory condition it wont give correct value
From 2012 Onwards
Memory management has become easy from 2012 onwards as
Max server memory also allocated memory for requests which require memory >8KB
SQLServer:Memory Manager:Free Memory (KB)
SQLServer:Memory Manager:Target Server Memory (KB)
SQLServer:Memory Manager:Total Server Memory (KB)
For NUMA system its also wort monitoring each node.
Object - SQLServer:Memory Node:Total Node Memory
(KB)
Object - SQLServer:Memory Node:Target Node Memory
(KB)
Object - SQLServer:Memory Node:Free Node Memory
(KB)
Ideally if target server memory is less than or equal to total server memory there wont be memory pressure if target is > total it does not always means its memory pressure
BCHR would also give you good idea about memory pressure
If memory grants pending is frequently non zero there is memory pressure
