URGENT QUESTION!!!! Macbookpro info transfer??

here is the situation
have a macbook pro running the latest OS. Have a G5 Desktop
I have to return my macbook pro to my employer as i have quit.
I want to create a user id on my desktop that is basicly a copy of my macbook until i buy a new macbook pro.
is this possible? how can i do it and be POSITIVE i maintain the integrity of my main user ID on my desktop
thanks experts!!

Welcome to the Forums!
Create a new user on your G5, then you can boot the MBP in FireWire Target Disk Mode and copy the contents of the MBP user home folder to your new G5 home folder. You don't say if you're running Leopard on the G5 - if not, you will likely run into problems, and even if you are, you may have issues due to the Intel vs. PPC chips. For those reasons, you can't be POSITIVE about the functionality of your new user in the G5, but the data integrity should be fine.
Alternatively, a safer option if you have an external HDD, you can use SuperDuper or Carbon Copy Cloner to clone the MBP's HDD to the external, then you'll have time to sort all this out at your leisure...
Hope this helps...

Urgent question:can you replace source video and automatically have AE swap clips in timeline?

Hi there
Have an urgent question. I have finished editing a project that has been edited from pre-exported videos, but the problem is that i have been notified last minute if it is possible to change parts of it!
Is is possible to change and re-render the pre-exported clips at same length that are affected and then replace the 'source footage' in after effects to have it automatically swap the clips that I've edited and cut up already? As it would take a very messy and extremely long time to manually change all the trimmed parts!
It is only a small section of the source clip I need to change, but the overall composition edits are fine so I don't really need to touch that, it's just really to replace the footage but have everything to stay the exact same.
Please advise!
Appreciate this if anyone can! fairly urgent
Thanks

Yes, just right-click on a source in the Project bin and choose Replace Footage.

Urgent Question about System Center Server Names and Dashes

Hey guys I have a quick Urgent question that would be awesome if it happens to get answered quickly :).
So in the past we had problems with different server names in components of System Center when setting up different servers.... I never myself saw the errors or what it did, but an absentee colleague did. For example is anything wrong with a name setup like
xx-scom-01 / xx-scom-02 as compared to the standard scom01 scom02? We have a certain naming convention we are moving to and I wanted to see if this was fixed. I wanted to say it had something to do with the hyphens... anyways any foresight anyone can
provide would be awesome. Thanks!

Dashes in the name will work fine.

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?

URGENT question please help.

My question is
i have an ipod video 30 gig and i was wondering if somehow i could use or update the software that is on a new 80 gig ipod to mine, so i could play and download other games.
is that possible?
thanks.

To my knowledge the only difference between the 30GB and 80Gb is the harddrive space is greater on the 80GB.
All software manufactures will give you the minimum or system requirements to run their software or games.
If you talking about transferring or cloning the 80GB, IPOD, it's be best to transfer the preferred selections to you ITunes 30GB IPOD computer.
A lot will depend on how much data you want to and what you want to maintain on your 30Gb IPOD.
Otherwise , I am not to clear to what your asking?

Adobe Form urgent questions!

Okay, I've just created a form using Adobe Designer, one that contains fields that someone can fill out when the form is open with Adobe Reader. The form I've created specifically is for a medical practice, and the first few fields are the doctor's last name, first name, and middle initial. Is there any way that, when I click Save As, a file name is automatically created in the Save As box that contains the last name, first name, and middle initial? I'd like the file name to look like this: LastName-FirstNameMiddleInitial.
Also, this is a form that the people who work at this practice will be using regularly. After the doctor's name fields are a few fields for the date, time in, and time out. Right now, we'd like the date to look like this: 07-16-2008. We'd also like the time in and time out to look like this: 12:00. I'd like it so that, if some data entry person at this medical clinic is tying in the date, and, say, they type in the date as 07/16/2008, it is automatically formatted to 07-16-2008 with the hyphens. Same with the time. Everyone types things in differently, and I'd love to know what I need to do so that it's automatically converted to the date/time design I listed above.
Help!

Mike, in response to your questions:
The purpose of the signature field is mainly to expand on the services we offer in terms of going paperless. We want to help our clients STAY paperless, which means preventing the need to print off more paper. This form I'm working on is for a medical practice and is simply a doctor's form, with field for the doctor's name, date/time, a field for any info the doctor would like to input, and then the electronic signature field.
After the PDF is created, it is more than likely saved, which presents other problems, as I've now learned you can't save with Adobe Reader.
As far as looking up data on the form in the future is concerned, I'm pretty sure that's a big yes. I don't know that this particular PDF would be updated constantly, but I'm sure it will need to be retrieved at some point. How can the data be inputed so it can be retrieved from a database?
Geo, how exactly do I go about providing JavaScript? I know how to create a button in Designer, but I've had little experience with JavaScript. I've downloaded a program (PF Merge?) that might allow me to link the form I've created to a database, but I'm not sure how it works yet. :-) Is that what you were referring to as far as our comments about an SQL database is concerned? Is there another way I can create a connection to a database, say, a slightly easier way? :-)
Thanks!

Quick question about sim transfer

Hi all,
I have a quick question and hopefully one of you guys would be able to help me. My friend purchased his 3g iphone today and hes giving me his old iphone. I currently have a blackjack and I wanted to take the sims card from the blackjack and put into the original iphone. Will the iphone work with my sims card? It is an older sims card, says 64k on it. If not, would I have to bring it into at&t and get it activated w/a different sims card? Hopefully all this isnt confusing. Thanks for any help. Cheers!

You're welcome.
I guess that also means I would have to upgrade to the 20 dollar data plan without the text messages as well?
The unlimited data plan for the first generation iPhone still costs $20/mo and includes 200 SMS. The only thing you need to get from an at&t store is a new SIM card. Take the iPhone with you telling them what you plan on doing and they should give you a new SIM card at no cost.
You will activate this iPhone with iTunes on your computer. If you are an existing subscriber, your calling plan will transfer to the iPhone, and any existing data plan you are using with your current phone will be cancelled. If you are an existing subscriber, your only selection will be the $20/mo unlimited data plan which includes 200 SMS, and you can select 1,500 SMS for an additional $10/mo or have unlimited SMS for an additional $20/mo.

Two questions: editing info and capacity info

I have two questions:
1) I edited some artist/album info, but after synching it with my classic (80gb) the info hadn't changed on the Ipod. It did on Itunes, but not the Ipod. Any thoughts?
2) As I put more music on my Ipod it increased the number of songs and the approximate # of days that this represented at the bottom of the Itunes screen. But then the days changed dramatically (and inaccurately) and now I have about 2500 songs, but it says that represents 250 days of music, which clearly isn't right. Any ideas on fixing this?
Thanks

Thank you for answering the first question - it worked!!!
As far as the other question,
When I create a playlist, for example, Jazz Tunes...and then I create another playlist titled Sarah McLachlan, etc., etc.,
I will eventually have a list of playlists that are titled either as a specific artist or genre. And so, when I look to do a search on genres...I have to also look over the artists, making it confusing... Is there a way to seperate the two? Still not making sense? : /

I have a urgent question?

Hi, friends:
I am installing Oracle RAC 10gR2……..
when I first install Oracle clusterware,
I got an error that we didn’t met before:
In the cluster configuration page---I input all the public, private, and VIP name for each node.
When go next, I saw error message is like:
The status returned by the node availability check for nodes (node2 name)-pr is CLUSTEREXCEPTION, the above node can be used as virtual host names and NOT as private nodes.
Any friends have any solution to solve this problem?
thank you very much

Probably you must have mixed the order of VIP declaration at vipca. Verify.
I would personally suggest you to write a more meaningful thread tittle. 'Urgent' and 'Question' are not considered suitable self descriptive search keys.

E to 515 will the info transfer

We have an old E and someone will sell us cheap a 2nd generation 515. Can we send infor back and forte between the two without a problem. If I remember we transferred from the last one to this E just by putting them next to each other. I think it was infrared. We are giving up on a computer transfer as the program wipes out new info on the E without passing the new info to the computed so we end up with only what is in the computer which is somewhat problematic. At least it doesnt wipe out the E addresses. We wanted to use the computer as a back up, but it seems too complicated.
Post relates to: Tungsten E

Hi, and welcome to the Palm Support Community.
Yes, you will be able to transfer data from one handheld to the other using IR (infrared) beaming. Make sure you have Beam Receive turned ON on the receiving device, and just aim the two devices' IR ports directly at each other, about 12 inches apart.
Data such as calendar and contacts will be perfectly compatible between the two devices. If you have third-party application data which you want to share, then of course, any such third-party applications will first have to be installed onto your "new" M515 before it can receive that data.

Urgent - Problem with info object

Hi All,
I have info object ZH_SONR (not master datatable), I changed the length of the info object from 12 to 10 in the development system. This info object is used in the general remote info cube.
Now my issue is I moved the change from development to acceptance. I moved the info object without deleting the msater data in the development system. due to this transport request failed to move to acceptance sys and also the inof obnject is inactive in the acceptance sys. (How activate info oject directly acceptance syst)
Can anybody suggest me.how to solve this issue. Pleae it very very urgent for me
Thanks in Advance
Narendra

Hi,
Just to correct you there is no need to move the dependencies of the infoobject esp the cube if they are already present in the acceptance system.
Check the exact error using the log in the transport and you will come to know the error for the transport.There can be other errrors also might be number range interval missing or so. So please check the log in se10 or se09 and see what is the error u are getting for the transport Deleting data in the dev system will not hamper i feel you need to take care of the data in the acceptance system .
Please rethink concern and then proceed.
Thanks

URGENT - Question on HD versus Solid State Drive.

Dear all:
This is an important question and also a little urgent.
I am about to purchase a new MacBook Pro 17" and am faced with the choice of either a conventional hard disk or a solid state drive. My understanding is that SSD's are faster and more reliable while less likely to experiencing a crash or other mechanical failure. However, the difference in price between a conventional 500 GB HD and the same size SSD is $ 1,250 which is half the price of the computer itself (a 50% increase in cost compared to the baseline system with the conventional HD).
Is this really a good choice ? Is the SSD that much faster and that much safer than a typical HD that it would make this additional expense worthwhile ? Or is the difference only really marginal and not worth this huge cost difference ?
Any input you can offer will be very appreciated.
Thanks,
Joseph

Dear all:
First I wish to thank you for the answers and thoughtful replies you have all posted in response to my original post.
It seems to be a general consensus that the speed difference between SSD's and conventional HD's isn't just marginal but measurable and orders of magnitude greater. This is good and certainly something I can benefit from. In my case I need the largest hard disk available so going for the 128 GB SSD drive to save money just isn't an option. I would prefer to go with a conventional 500 GB HD instead of a 128 GB SSD just because I need to carry a lot in my computer and my notebook (despite the fact that I also own a desktop) is often used as my main and/or only computer.
The questions now are:
1. All responses focused on performance but nothing has been said about reliability. I've read somewhere (although I can't remember the source) that SSD's can also "crash". It is not the same type of mechanical crash one would experience with a conventional HD but they can also fail. How exactly is it that SSD's can fail and compared to HD's what is the likelihood of one experiencing a failure with a SSD ? Have any of you experienced failures with a SSD ?
2. Is the upgrade from a 500 GB HD to a 500 GB SSD worth the $ 1,250 price tag ? This question is more difficult to answer and I know that part of the answer has to do with me (my own willingness to pay this amount and just how much the speed and/or safety of a SSD can be of benefit to my personal needs and workflow) but I would still like to hear your input.
Thank you again for all your helpful and detailed replies.
Best regards,
Joseph
