Another OS X virtualization under SnowLeopard?

Hi,
I have recently bought Mac Box Set and upgraded my Leopard to SL. Everything looks fine so far, but I have a major problem - my smart card (ID card) is not supported under SL. So basically I shall have to wait until local software developers come out with a new decent piece of software; that might take months. I am used to smart card for daily banking transactions etc, and it has been working flawlessly under Leopard.
This lead me to the question whether I might be able to temporarily install and use a virtual copy of 10.4 or 10.5 under SL. I would rather not mess with Boor Camp, as this thing is totally new for me. And I hate the idea of virtually installing Windows on my MacBook....
Thanks in advance for any ideas and suggestions!
Kind regards.

Does SL have the ability of booting to USB?
It's the system that governs whether it can boot from USB. To the best of my knowledge, all the MacBook Pro models can, so if you can get a flash drive large enough to install Mac OS X on it, it should work. At least other users have reported success.
Can I use any virtualization software (I have Parallels)? VirtualBox?
Sorry but no, the client version of Mac OS X cannot be run in virtualization.

Everio files with QuickTime under Snowleopard

I have to import files from a JVC Video hard-disk Camara (GZ-HD7 everio). The filename ends with *.TOD. On the JVC website is a plugin for the QuickTime Player available. The file "nsTODimporter.component" is in the Librery/QickTime folder. Everything worked perfect under Leopard. With Snowleopard i get the message "Not able to open the file. The file is not a video file." Have you anny idea what i can do?

From JVC web site http://support.jvc.com/consumer/support/support.jsp?pageID=1&item=19 :
+Can I play HD Everio video on Mac?+
+Yes, for playback of TOD file QuickTime can be used.+
+There are two things you must install in order to do this:+
+Install the QuickTime for Everio component from the CD-ROM that is supplied with the HD Everio camcorder.+
+Also install the update for the JVC QuickTime component for Everio which can be found at: http://www2.cli.co.jp/products/ne/updateqtc_for_gzhd7/qtc3eupdate.htm This update provides compatibility up to QuickTime Version 7.4.5 and Mac OS X 10.5.2.+
This playback component isn't compatible with Snow Leopard and Quicktime 7.6.3. The video compression/format used for the camcorder is MPEG-2 TS (transport stream).
You might be able to use Apple's MPEG-2 Playback Component.
http://www.apple.com/quicktime/mpeg2/
Apple sells it for 19.99. If you have an Intel computer make sure you download the intel version.
If you have iMovie 8 you might be able to import the video into iMovie 8. Read the above JVC link.
Quicktime can't edit MPEG-2 videos. You would need something like MPEG-Streamclip (free) to convert the video into another format/codec that Quicktime can edit. http://www.squared5.com/
Camcorder companies make so many variations of the MPEG-2 format that are not industries standard to get away with not paying the MPEG-2 licensing fees, it can be a hit or a miss to be able to play these videos on a computer.

Moving NWA from one WBS to another and consolidated costs under WBS

HI,
I'm restructuring the project by moving released NWA from one WBS to another to aling actual costs with new budget categories.
After moving these NWA I run the report and found out that WBS element summarize costs even if there is no NWA under this specific WBS.
What field should I enable to allow WBS elements recalculate costs according to new NWA under these WBS.
Thanks,

Canon ScanLide 20 does not work under Snowleopard

I have a Canon ScanLide 20 USB and on the official Canon web site, the driver are not available for Mac OS X 10.6. I finished the complete passage to mac last month with an iMac 21,5" following a Macbook 13,1 unibody, now I am a fully Apple, but now I have some problem with this scanner, the problem with HP laserjet solved reading this forum.
please help me, I download the driver dor MAC OS X 10.4 and canon scantool box run but not perfectly, and the plug in does not work.
How can I solve this problem? who have some ideas?
Thanks in advance for support!

Hello
My first guess is that an undocumented yet siginifcant change made in 10.6 betrayed your code in open handler.
Try replacing your open handler with this :
on open my_files
repeat with f in my_files
set f's contents to f as alias
end repeat
-- orginal code in open handler here
end open
*Replacement code has three-line repeat block at the beginning of open handler to gurantee the received list - my_files - to be an alias list.
If this change fix the problem, it should be Apple's fault to have let your script fail under new OS.
(Under every Mac OS prior to 10.6, open handler receives a list of alias object(s) from droplet mechanism, whereas under 10.6, it receives a list of some «class bmrk» object(s) of which details have not been documented (as far as I know). And in certain aspects, «class bmrk» object and alias object behave differently, which can break existing script's functionality.)

Image Capture behaves funnily under SnowLeopard

Dear Folks,
I have an Epson scanner, that is not likely to be supported under Snow.
Therefore I am happy that Image Capture can handle it.
However, this software seems to be too clever by half.
I scanned the first page of iWork, and Image Capture went immediately into research mode.
It successfully found "elements" that it thought to be independent, and produced 3 files:
one for "Wo", one for "T" and one that I wanted, "iWork".
I did not ask for this analysis and extra files.
First I thought that this facility was planned to find out if there were many different things on
the platen and scan/file separately. Not the elements of a single item.
Anyone who knows how to turn off this very silly behaviour?

Version 6.0

Mike-oz wrote:
The problem is that whether the Detect Separate Items was and was not turned on, it made no difference.
After quick pre-scan, the user should be able
to draw around the thing it wants to scan at high resolution.
Mike-o, I might have a workaround for you.
First to recap ... I have the same problem with my Epson Stylus Photo RX500. The "Detect Separate Items" behavior occurs even when I uncheck the box before clicking Show Details. And still persists if I uncheck the box in the Show Details pane and redo the Overview scan.
Try this as a possible workaround:
Show Details
(an automatic Overview scan occurs)
Uncheck Detect Separate Items.
Eliminate the unwanted crop areas by clicking in the frame and hitting delete.
Then select the portion you want to scan by dragging the mouse pointer.
Click Scan.
Using this method I was able to get a single (full-page) output image.
The crucial step is deleting the unwanted crop areas before selecting the full page.

TextEdit under SnowLeopard crashes reliably during File- Open

I just upgraded to SnowLeopard. Until this morning, TextEdit worked fine. Now, I try to edit a text file, bring up the Open dialog, navigate to the directory containing the file, and before I can select the file, TextEdit crashes. It does it every time. Each time it sends some info off to Apple.
I need to edit some files. What's the problem?

Does it only happen when trying to open files from a particular folder?
Or does it happen no matter which folder you navigate to?
(I'm thinking there's a corrupted file of some sort in that particular folder.)

Seems like everyday I find another program that worked on SnowLeopard, but now doesn't work on Lion. Can I easily downgrade back to Snow Leopard?

Since I installed Lion, I keep finding programs that won't run, but which ran fine on Snow Leopard. (Apple even eliminated MacSolitare.) How can I downgrade back to Snow Leopard? Do I have to erase my HD and start all over?
I have my stuff backed up on Time Machine and Carbonite.
But do those backups just contain files? Will I have to also reinstall every application that I have been using?

No they didn't, since it's not part of the OS.

Yes.

If you have a pre-Lion backup, simply restore that backup.

Another Issue to Add under Win7 x64

Having upgraded from Vista x64 to Win7 x64 siz days ago, all went smooth with Adobe products (there was no re-install of Adobe's products), but for some issues with Photoshop 64.
While working on a large image (more than 1GB in size) using the 64 bit version of Photoshop, I ran into a number of niggley problems as follows:
The clone would not pick up on newly selected targets
Colors changed when viewing the file at full size (it was a 160inch x 86inch size), i.e. reds turned green
Attempting to change from a RGB color format to CMYK, it performed the task, but did not show it as this was happening. Due to being blind I opened the 32 bit version where everything worked correctly and it was not until checking the folder with explorer that I saw the 64 bit version had done the job. Needles to say, I am leary of using it's converted file.
Both the 32 and 64 bit version flicker when loading from Bridge, but not when loading as a standalone.
Of interest, with the exeption of OnOne, where the UAC has to be turned off and the system restarted before it would load, all other plug-ins seem to work OK.
I'm not complaining, just sharing my findings in the hope it helps getting these issues remedied.
If anyone has found solutions to the above, I'd love to hear from you.
Cheers,
Michael

Your system looks great. I have two 300 gig velociraptor running just sata. I don't run RAID
I don't see where anything could be causing the issues in your system
Here is a windows 7 tweaking guide I used. Pay attention to the magnifier option (second one down). It might hold a clue for you. I don't know if it not playing well with CS4 (or not a issue at all). Just interesting.
Anyways, there are a lot of tweaks that I used to speed Windows 7 up. There are a lot of others on the net too.

Bug when install JamPack under SnowLeopard

Hi,
I'm installing JamPack (Rhythm Section... Voice...Symphony...). But at the end of the install process, an alert occur : "Title of the : an error occurs"
Any idea ?

These jampack problems are new. You might also want to post in the snow leopard forum ans inform Apple.
I'm just curious about your Snow Leopard install. Some peole have been doing a clean install of leopard and having numerous problems. This is due to the fact that Snow Leopard should not be installed in a clean install. There is no clean install, you simply install it. A clean install of Snow Leopard will cause a lot of problems.
Also, any apps that ask you to install Rosetta go ahead and do that. Previous OSX versions installed it on your drive. Apple now offers the install from its web site and it is auto installed when you click OK to install. Afterword you won't know its running.

Transfer Company Codes to Another System under a new company code

Hi,
We have 2 company codes in which we want to move to another SAP system but under one new company code. Is it possible to create a new company code and bring the two company codes under this company code. We do not really require to move all the historical data, just the balances will be fine. Please provide your insight how this can be done.
Can the 2 company codes be transferred to the new company codes as cost centers? Or what kind of design can work in this situation?

Hi,
As the historical information is not required the approach to be adopted can be as under:
1. A cut off date has to be determined for transfer of balances to a new Company Code.
2. All Business Processes mapped in both the Company Codes should be there in the new Company Code.
3. All GL Accounts to be extended to new Company code.All Customer and Vendor masters are to be created.
4. All the GL Balances are to be brought over.
5. All open item managed GL Accounts (line item wise) to be populated in the new Company Code.
6. All open items of Customers and Vendors are to be brought over.
7. Material Master to be broght over if the same are no there in new Company Code.
8.All open Purchase Orders and Sales Orders are to be broght over.
You can use LSMW to do the data conversion.
Thanks
Murali.

Yet Another Customer Service Complaint

For at least the past ten years, I have been a Verizon Wireless customer, & until recently, I have never had an issue with the company. Their plans have great pricing, the coverage in my area is impeccable, & the representatives in the store have always been more than willing to meet customer satisfaction.
Until recently, that is. Last year, I upgraded my phone to the LG Rival, after my LG EnV was clearly out of date & useless to me. This is where the issues begin. Clearly, like any young adult, I purchased the insurance on the phone since accidents & loss are bound to happen. By the time summer rolled around, my Rival was having extreme software issues, due to no fault of my own. The phone would often freeze, the screen would glitch out, resembling a TV static screen, the phone would underline random words in red, it wouldn’t hold a charge, the phone would shut off or restart itself for no reason or in the middle of a text or phone call, or it would completely shift the screen to the left or right so that only half of the screen was visible.
I took it into the store of course & was informed that the insurance program had switched over to Asurion, & I would have to file a claim with them & wait the specified number of days for a new [aka refurbished] phone to arrive in the mail. Fine, I could deal with that, three days wasn’t too long of a wait to continue to deal with the piece of crap I was holding in my hand.
My refurbished phone arrived, I shipped the old one back to them, & all seemed well. Until two weeks later, when the refurbished phone started showing the same symptoms as the first. First the charge started failing to hold. Next came the shutting off & restarting, followed by the screen shifting. Once again, I returned to the store. Went through the same motions, filed the claim, waited three days, & was once again gifted with a refurbished version of the EnV.
Can you guess what was happening two weeks later? I’m sure you can. I went through this five times. *Five*. By the fifth time, they were completely disregarding what information I was giving them in the store, & had simply started shipping a new battery pack. Through November & December, I was in the store every few days, sometimes multiple times a day, seeing as I was not the primary phone holder or account holder. I was continually given attitude, shifted from person to person, & blown off.
I’m used to this kind of treatment. I’m a twenty-one year old female with a mohawk, facial piercings, & tattoos. In the beginning, never once was I rude, irate, or anything other than courteous, laying out my plight in brief & to-the-point conversations, & simply asking for help. Towards the end, I had started making it clear that I was sick of being [Edited to comply with Terms of Service] around, that I was a long-standing customer who until recently had no issues with their service, & that I expected the situation to be remedied. What kind of service was I paying for anyways?
It finally boiled down to I could either cancel my contract early, having to pay the fees, or I could buy a new phone at my own expense. My mother, who is the account owner, had finally had just as much as I had, & went into the store with me. Just as I had before, she laid out our problems, was calm with a business-like manner, & wouldn’t you just know it, she was treated much more receptively than myself & offered a different array of options. We ended up using the up-grade available on her line to acquire a Kin-Two for myself, since the available free Wi-Fi at hot spots was something that would [hopefully] end some of the hidden fees I had been receiving with my Rival. We extended our contract & once again purchased insurance on the device.
A little over a month ago, on January 19th, we were once again hit with a larger-than-expected bill due to data charges. I will accept this as my fault; a little too much status-updating. She called customer service to have a data plan added to my phone. All should be just fine, correct?
On February 4th, I was at a club with some friends & my phone was misplaced. Whether it was taken, slipped from my pocket, sat down somewhere, the reason is irrelevant. Point is I didn’t have it. We contacted Ansurion to file the claim, & they would not accept it. According to their records, on January 19th, the insurance on my phone was canceled, the same day we had the data plan put on it. We were told to contact Verizon. After doing so, we were informed that they couldn’t name the representative for us who canceled the insurance, because their system does not keep those kind of records. Now began the telephone shifting, from one representative to another as they very nearly refused to let us speak to a supervisor as requested. All we wanted was the insurance reinstated on the phone so that I could get another Kin-Two.
They informed us that they no longer sold the Kin-Twos, nor did they have any refurbished ones in stock. They said that if they re-instated the insurance [which we would have to pay for] they couldn’t guarantee what phone would be sent, but that I would receive a new phone. No, I didn’t want to be sent a phone that would require a data plan simply to work, nor did I want some outdated phone that would just continue to glitch out a few weeks after receiving, as was clearly the issue in the past. They recommended we call our local store to see if they had any Kin-Twos in stock.
Guess what our final options were? After speaking to the representative there, we were told that we could either purchase a new Kin-Two in the store at $430. Excuse me? I only paid $75 for the phone to begin with. Next option. I could wait until May when another of the lines under our names was eligible for an upgrade. Going four months without a phone? Not happening. Or, we could purchase a different phone, once again at our own expense.
I will admit that by this point, the two of us were pretty peeved. We asked what the cost would be to simply cancel the contract & take our business else where. $95 to cancel just my line, $365 to cancel all three lines. Both options were cheaper than buying a new phone, new insurance & extending my contract once again. Now, I know what some of you out there are thinking.
“You were given multiple options to work with, & you chose to disregard each option.”
With the experience & treatment I have received in the past year, & how often I have had to threaten to cancel my contract in order to receive any kind of help what-so-ever, so be it. I would rather pay $95 dollars & take my business elsewhere - say MetroPCS or Cricket where you can get unlimited everything for less than $50 a month. I’m not going to make my family suffer through the cancellation fees & start-up fees elsewhere since they both adore their phones & have no issues with them.
That doesn’t mean that I am not greatly **bleep** off, insulted, & dissatisfied with what I have had to deal with. I don’t know exactly what policy changes have been made within the company from recent mergers & such, but the website’s claim of “Expect the best customer service at every turn from our employees,” is complete & utter rubbish. The customer service we have dealt with in the past few months has been nothing but, & excuse my French, complete **bleep**.
I *will* be cancelling my contract & taking my business elsewhere, & you can bet I will be informing anyone thinking of switching to Verizon of my experience. Friends of mine have been dropping Verizon left & right due to the fact that just because you offer great coverage & plans, doesn’t mean that you can treat the people paying you their money each month like trash. For those who continue to adore Verizon, just wait.

Absolutely Horrible Customer Service - both in the store and the 800 number.
My phone quit working - not my fault. I was suppose to get a replacement overnight and if for some reason it didn't arrive overnight, I was assured that it would be delivered Saturday. Today is Monday, no phone. They put the wrong address on the shipping form and they don't know when I will get it.
They won't send another one because there is a phone out there and they have to get it back first. They know I don't have it. Ridiculous!
Why don't they have replacement phones in the store. Option 1: phone breaks, go to store and get replaced same day. Option 2: phone breaks, wait for phone to arrive in mail and hope it is the next day. One is more convenient for the customer and the other is more convenient for Verizon. Seriously - It's not brain surgery.
The lack of concern among the 3 Verizon employees I spoke with was unbelievable. "This is just the way we do things. There is nothing I can do to help you." The store manager doesn't know how Verizon's replacement service works or how long it takes for them to notify FedEX to correct the delivery mistake and get the phone to me! "I can't control FedEX." No but you're the reason they delivered the phone to the wrong address. Rep had the nerve to tell me he would "correct the address mistake IF I wanted him to." Under what circumstance would I not want him to????? Absolutely, no acceptance of responsibility!!!
Cell phone companies should not be allowed to require two year contracts but should have to provide month to month service. They KNOW they don't have to treat you well or provide service with these long term contracts. They know you have no recourse.

QuickTime 10.1 does not seem to be compatible with OSX Lion - clicking on the displayed file window switches to another displayed app, doesn't play or control the video.

If I open a movie file (appears to be any type - .mov, m4v, mv4) it displays on the desktop, but when clicked, the Mac reverts to another open application (immediately UNDER to point of the mouse click) and not the displayed movie file. It appears the screen mapping is flawed...
Anyone else have this problem? (does not appear to be a problem with QT7) Running OSX Lion 10.7.3 and QT Player 10.1 (501.8) - all most current as far as I can tell...

Yes, same problem. The active clickable area appears to be shifted down and to the right as if it is the shadow mask (to make it look like layers in the display) that is responding. Means you can't move the control palette to the top of the window (to not block security video with time track at bottom) or even close the window. The X in the bubble appears when moused over but the click goes through it.
Most obvious if you open more than one movie at a time and they cascade. You can't get at the ones underneath until a few down the stack and it gets an upper wrong one.
Who's testing these things?
For comparison testing to recreate problem: Mac Pro (System Information has also been dumbed down from System Profiler, push System Report for the useful stuff) with an ATI Radeon HD 5770 driving two displays.
Also viewing desktop of another computer on the network is slower and, for instance in World of Warcraft, the hand pointer flickers.
And finder windows can't be narrowed as much any more to show only a list of file names for drag and drop sorting.
Was hoping that by 10.7.3, it would be safe to jump, since several posts told me how to Terminal > networksetup -setv6off Ethernet to fix iTunes streaming to expresses and other dumb bugs.

Move file from one library to another library via SharePoint 2010 Designer Workflow

Can SharePoint 2010 designer be able to move a file from one library to another using workflow? I tried to use the copy list item but it won't show my destination library. I prefer not to use the 3rd part workflow like
http://www.codeplex.com/SPDActivities
Please advise.
Brian

Hi Brain,
From your narration, I undersatnd that you want to move document to another library across site or site collection. However,
the copy list item action is used for coping list item to another library or list in the same site, so you can’t achieve it through ootb workflow action. So to move document to another library across site under the same site collection, then you can use site
content and structure. If across site collection, then I suggest you use that the 3<sup>rd</sup> part workflow action.
For more information about site content and structure,

How to add three columns under a column of Column Structure in BEx Query ??

Hi all,
    I have created a Structure for Taxes (with 10 rows) under Rows and another Structure for Company under Columns and it has 3 columns like Company A, B & C. Now I want to have three columns (Actual, Forecast & Total) under each company A, B & C. It means it will have 9 columns under these 3 companies.
The ACTUAL should calculated as:
          Version = 100 and
          Months = Plan Begin Month - 1.
If the Plan Begin Month is 4 (April) then ACTUAL should be calculated for first 3 (4 - 1) months only.
   The FORECAST should calculated as:
          Version = 699 and
          Months = From 4 (April) to 12 (December).
   'Plan Begin Month' will be entered on the selection screen.
   How can I design this query, PLEASE ?
    Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Venkat.

Hi Ravi,
    Thanks for your quick response.
    The ACTUAL should calculated as:

          If the Plan Begin Month is 4 (April) then ACTUAL should be calculated for first 3 (4 - 1) months only.
   The FORECAST should calculated as:

          Months = From 4 (April) to 12 (December).
      I am unable to create the Restricted Key Figure with Version.
     How can I design it, PLEASE ?
Thanks,
