Backup for Smartforms in 4.6c

Hi Experts,
Unable to take backup for Smartforms from 4.6c, there is no download option in Utilities Menu like ECC 6.0. Can anyone provide me with a better solution ?
Is there any other tcode for getting it done ?
Thanks,
Kavitha

Hello,
To my mind , the only safe way to save a smartforms in 4.6C is to save the two files of the transport as there is no versionning and no export to xml file.
Sincerely

    Hi,
    we can save the  Smart Form's data design to a file so that they can either have a backup or move that Smart Form to another CMS system.
    see this:
    Exporting Smart Form to Desktop
    1. Log into the CMS Work Area
    2. Navigate to Settings > Smart Form Configuration
    3. Click on the Smart Form you would like to export
    4. Click on the Data Design button
    5. Right-Click on the empty space in the gray tool bar, and click Miscellaneous
    6. There should now be a Save and Open Folder buttons on your toolbar, choose the Save (disk icon)
    7. You now have the option of saving the file as HTML or XML, I generally choose XML
    8. Save the file to your desktop
    Importing Smart Form from Desktop
    1. Log into the CMS Work Area
    2. Navigate to Settings > Smart Form Configuration
    3. Create a new Smart Form
    4. Click on the Data Design button
    5. Right-Click on the empty space in the gray tool bar, and click Miscellaneous
    6. There should now be a Save and Open Folder buttons on your toolbar, choose the Open (Folder icon)
    7. You can now import an existing exported Smart Form and it will appear in your data design
    Reward Points if found helpfull..

  • [solved] missing latest backups for iPhone after getting replacement phone

    Thought I would share this one in case anyone else runs into it.
    My the speaker on my wife's iPhone 4 on Verizon had stopped working for phone calls for the second time and a restore didn't fix it, so she returned the phone and they gave her a new one at the store. We had made several backups over the last few days, the most recent was this morning.
    So tonight we hooked up the new phone to iTunes and got ready to restore it, but iTunes said the restore was last updated in FEBRUARY. What?! My wife freaked out thinking all her photos etc. were now lost for good.
    I held off on the restore and decided to do some checking around before doing anything. I found the folder where the restore files are, and sure enough I found files from today. I copied that folder just in case. I also checked in iTunes itself and the backups were listed. So what was up?!
    It finally occured to me that we had recently upgraded her phone to iOS 5, but that the new iPhone 4 from the store was probably still on iOS 4 -- maybe iTunes was not smart enough to see this situation and tell us about it, and maybe it won't listed iOS 5 backups for an iOS 4 phone.
    Well that turned out to be the case. But what to do to fix it? I figured if I could get iOS 5 onto the phone, we would be all set. But I didn't want to tell iTunes to label it as a new phone either -- I'm not sure if that would be permanent or what. So I took a leap of faith and held down the power button and home button simultaneously for a while, past the power off notification, until the phone prompted to be connected to iTunes to be restored.
    Then I plugged it back into the computer (this is Windows 7, by the way). Sure enough iTunes said it detected a phone in recovery mode, and would I like to have iTunes restore it to factory settings and put on the latest iOS? I sure would, so I did that and waited...
    After that was done, iTunes wanted me to active the phone with Verizon. We had already done that an hour earlier over the phone, but tried it anyway, and it failed. We ignored that failure and went into the phone in iTunes -- it now asked if it was a new phone or if we should restore it -- and the backup from this morning was listed. Phew!
    Finally completed the restore. I noticed that all of the passwords for all apps were lost -- unlike with a normal restore/backup on the same phone -- but everything else (pcitures, apps, etc.) was there. Thank goodness!
    So, if you have upgraded the iOS version and have to replace your phone and the nreplacement has an older iOS verison, then that may explain why your backups appear to be missing...

    Yes, I tried. But nothing is working. I am feeling bad as such a costly phone stop working in 1.4 year ?
    I am just sharing my experience.
    I am not ranting but yes angry as I am eligible for upgrade in Nov 2012 so don't want to pay $149 for replacement as I can upgrade to iPhone 5.
    Apple expert please help me how can I fix it. It's completely software issue.

  • Help needed. I have a 3TB external hard drive partitioned into 1TB's. I used one partition as backup for the main computer hard drive. But now it is greyed out as shown in the disk utility and its name changed, i dont know how that happened, i tried verif

    Help needed. I have a 3TB external hard drive partitioned into 1TB's. I used one partition as backup for the main computer hard drive. But now it is greyed out as shown in the disk utility and its name changed, i dont know how that happened, i tried verifying and repairing it but had no luck. I also tried mounting and unmounting it but still no solution. Anyone to help please?

    Looks bad. I would strongly advise backing up the stuff on the other two partitions as soon as possible in case the rest of the drive goes wrong.
    Beyond that, Disk Utility has limited abilities to repair disks, DiskWarrior uses a different approach and might, emphasis might be more successful. It has certainly done the job for me in the past when Disk Utility could not.

  • My iPhones gives me a message that I don't have enough storage to backup.  When I attempt to manage my storage it shows 1 backup for the phone I use and it's 5GB.  I have transferred all my photos to my computer hoping it would create storage but no good.

    My iPHone tells me I don't have enough iCLoud storage.  When I manage my storage from Settings it shows 1 backup for my primary phone and it's 5GB.  I understand that is what Apple provides for free and I could upgrade but I don't want to upgrade.  I have transferred most all my photos to the computer and I have no music on my device.  And this was several weeks ago and I have attempted to backup since hoping it would create a new backup but no good.
    I have even went in the backup and turned off Camera Roll since it's the largest but still no good.
    If you have any suggestions other than upgrade your storage plan please help.
    Thanks

    Try deleting the old backup.
    Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup>Manage Storage, tap the device name and on the resulting screen, scroll down and tap on Delete Backup.

  • How can you merge multiple daily backups into one backup for that day?

    Ok, so I had some trouble getting Time Machine to backup some new files and finally had a force a "deep traversal." But now I have 20+ backups for today before I did the "deep traversal" because I was selecting "Back Up Now" to get it to backup up the new files.
    Because it is annoying to have so many backups for one day, which differ only by incoming and outgoing emails, I am wanting to combine all the backups for today into a single backup for today. Is there any way to do this?
    Thanks!

    Yes. Wait 24 hours, and Time Machine will do it for you. It keeps all backups for 24 hours, but only one (the first of the day) for a month. Thereafter, it keeps one per week, deleting the others, as long as there's room. See #12 in [Time Machine - Frequently Asked Questions|http://web.me.com/pondini/Time_Machine/FAQ.html] (or use the link in *User Tips* at the top of this forum).

  • Time Machine questions: Handling backups for multiple Macs to one FW drive

    I am reviewing the Time Machine thread and seeing a lot of helpful information, but I would like to ask something I haven't quite found yet.
    We have 2 Leopard Macs, a MacBook Pro and an intel iMac... with plans to upgrade another MBP from Tiger to Leopard at some point.
    In planning for Time Machine, we set up a 1 TB drive, attached it via FW 800 to the iMac, partitioned it GUID for Intel, and made 3 partitions, one for each planned Mac we want to back up to it.
    I started Time Machine on the iMac first and the first backup of about 100 gb took maybe 4 hours.
    Then we tried to start the Time Machine backup for the MBP over the network (wireless). It was understandably much slower and quit with some error last evening, so I took advantage of the pause to move the notebook to a wired ethernet connection. It got even slower so this morning I directly connected it FW 800, erased what had been backed up, and started over. So far, so good. 6GB out of 100 in 10 minutes or so. The idea being, if we can get the first backup completed faster over wired connection, maybe doing the incrementals over wireless network will be okay. Sounds like some folks are doing that successfully. I am hoping that works out.
    Questions: Was it necessary to partition my 1TB drive into a partition for each Mac's Time Machine backup? I did make each partition bigger than the hard drive it is designated for.
    To get the MBP to mount the external FW drive on its desktop, I had to disconnect the drive from the iMac. Is there any way I can connect the FW drive to both the MBP and the iMac (the drive has two FW 800 out connections, so it is physically possible)? I'm thinking (from reading posts of others with notebooks) that one strategy is to connect your notebook to your Time Machine drive at night and let it back up, but it'd be great if I could leave the iMac connected while doing so. Is there a way the volumes on the drive can mount on both desktops?
    When I try wireless again, I'm seeing mixed posts regarding whether the MBP will need a password to log in to the remote volume each time, or only the first time when the Time Machine backup is established... if I could get clarification on that, it would be helpful.
    Thanks!
    thanks

    What do you see on your notebook when you click on your TimeMachine icon in the Dock?
    My notebook is mounting the backup drive on an hourly basis, running a backup, and looking like it is doing something... but when I then look at TimeMachine, I can't see the backups. (On my iMac with the drive directly attached, I see a progression of windows showing all the hourly backups the last 24 hours, etc.) I just called Apple to ask why this is so, and they told me they couldn't help me because wireless Time Machine backups aren't supported.
    I know backups to a hard drive attached to an Airport Express Base Station are not supported. But when they say "You can designate just about any HFS+ formatted FireWire or USB drive connected to a Mac as a Time Machine backup drive. +Time Machine can also back up to another Mac running Leopard with Personal File Sharing, Leopard Server, or Xsan storage devices+"... well, how can you DO that?

  • I have been using my usb as my backup for time machine and now I want to unlock it and use it as a normal usb. How can I do this?

    I am having trouble switching my usb from a backup for my time machine to a normal usb for my files.

    Have you reformatted the drive?
    Just go to Disk Utility (Applications>Utilities folder), select the drive and erase it, formatting it as "Mac OS Extended (Journaled)" with a single GUID partition. You may want to change the name of the drive when you erase it.
    Have you tried that?

  • Time Capsule backup for multiple users

    I have my iMac setup so that each member of my family has their own account. I am the administrator. When I run a time capsule backup is it backing up their files as well or do I need to create a backup for their accounts.
    If I create individual backups for their accounts will it backup the shared files like the applications or just files specific to their accounts? Is this something I need to control by selecting what files to exclude in the preferences
    Time capsule seems great for simple backups but concerns me if I ever have a HD crash. It seems very difficult to restore a backup to a new mac if I ever have to do that. Does anyone else have this concern? I am considering buying another external drive and use SuperDuper to create full bootable backups at least once every 6 months or so.
    Thanks,
    Gil

    It is much harder to check what Time Machine has backed up.. you can assume that everything currently needed to reproduce the same setup on another computer is there.
    To double check you must spend a bit of time understanding both how Time Machine works and how to restore from it.
    Read up a bit from Pondini's excellent KnowledgeBase of articles.
    http://pondini.org/TM/FAQ.html
    Q7-9 are highly relevant.
    Also go back to the main page and read the main articles on how TM works.
    I must also say at the moment, on Yosemite in particular, I would not fully trust Time Machine.
    I encourage people to make a bootable clone using Carbon Copy Cloner for example to a USB drive. You do not need to do it continually but the clone makes for a much easier return to normal.. since you can simply change boot disks. It costs $40 and is excellent value.. there are others you can buy.. and I am not connected to CCC in any way.. other than I use it and been amazed at what a great piece of software it is.

  • Can I use a single external drive to maintain time machine backups for two Mac computers?

    Hello
    We have an older mac mini and macbook air.  I have one Western Digital external USB drive.  Can I use the same drive to hold and maintain time machine backups for both machines?
    I already have the macbook air time-machined on the WD drive.  I now want to backup the mac mini onto the same drive.  Is it going to over write the time machine backup or is the software smart enough to maintain two separate files, partitions, whatever it does..?

    It will maintain separate backups. Note that it's generally advisable to use separate drives for best practice backup, but yes, it will work for both computers, provided you have enough space (need generally 2-3 times the total used file space for both Macs).

  • Removing Time Machine backups for (missing) external hard drive

    My Time Machine was backing up everything, including external hard drives.
    One of the external drives (ORIGDRIVE) started hardware failures.  I added a new external drive (NEWDRIVE) and used Finder to copy files over (some via RAID and some from the Time Machine copy a month before the problems cropped up).
    Then I ejected and unplugged ORIGDRIVE and shipped it back to the manufacturer.
    The problem is that the Time Machine still has all those copies from ORIGDRIVE eating up disk space, but I want to keep a year's worth of monthlies for all the other drives (just in case another drive fails soon).
    Since ORIGDRIVE is not mounted, Time Machine doesn't show me those files so I can use the "Delete All Backups of" option within the GUI.
    If I try renaming NEWDRIVE to ORIGDRIVE, what I get instead is ORIGDRIVE 1 .
    We're talking dozens of TB here, so reformatting the Time Machine volume and starting over maxes out the system and leaves me flying without a complete backup for most of a week, something I'd rather avoid.
    Suggestions?

  • Can I use my IPad as a backup for my IMac instead of an external hard drive?

    I'm wondering if I can use my iPad as a backup for my iPad instead of an external hard drive?

    As your question says backup for your iMac I assume that is what you mean, as opposed to what is in the text. The iPad doesn't have a disk mode, and you can only copy onto it content that is supported by the apps that you've got. So personally I'd say no - external hard drives are easier to use as a backup and are a lot cheaper
