BADI not working with FAPP - Final Appraisal column

I am trying to add a custom BADI to FAPP - Final Appraisal column. But I am getting an error saying 'Value Determination XXX not permitted for column FAPP'. I have copied the standard BADI AVERAGE and trying to incorporate that. Any ideas?

Hi FS,
Please check the following SDN thread, there is a similar solution:

Dbxml django mod_wsgi not working with error: 'finally' pops bad exception

Dear experts
I have a python/django application, 'mysite', which connects to bdbxml. The application works fine using the django development server but fails when run using mod_wsgi with apache - my chosen route for production. Specifically it is the parts of the application that connect to the database that fail with a very unhelpful message, 'finally' pops bad exception.
I believe from googling that this error is a generic error that is generated by C++ applications when there is no other error message to generate, but I am not a C++ expert so don't really know what it means.
My views.py function looks like:
def dbquery(request):
     mgr = XmlManager()
     container = mgr.openContainer("/wsgi/mysite/mysite.bdbxml")
     results = container.getAllDocuments(0)
     for value in results:
          document = value.asDocument()
          return HttpResponse (document.getName())
my django.wsgi file (using the suggested format from Graham Dumpleton) looks like:
import os, sys
sys.path.append('/wsgi')
sys.path.append('/wsgi/mysite')
import settings
import django.core.management
django.core.management.setup_environ(settings)
utility = django.core.management.ManagementUtility()
command = utility.fetch_command('runserver')
command.validate()
import django.conf
import django.utils
django.utils.translation.activate(django.conf.settings.LANGUAGE_CODE)
import django.core.handlers.wsgi
application = django.core.handlers.wsgi.WSGIHandler()
and httpd.conf looks like:
WSGIApplicationGroup %{GLOBAL}
WSGIScriptAlias / /wsgi/mysite/apache/django.wsgi
<Directory /wsgi/mysite>
Order deny,allow
Allow from all
</Directory>
Does anyone know how to solve this problem?
thanks

I am experiencing this exact same issue attempting to configure Oracle APEX as a partner application with SSO. I have also followed the Metalink Doc ID:353023.1 to no avail. I have checked all entries in the WWSEC_ENABLER_CONFIG_INFO$ table and they all appear to be correct. For a few moments, the application will display the following message:
Redirecting to the Login Server for authentication...
Then it displays the following error...
ORA-01403: no data found
Error ERR-1082 Error in executing authorization scheme code.
Can anyone advise what may be causing this issue? Thanks,

Wanted to create appraisal template without final appraisal column FAPP

Hi Experts,
We have a requirement to create template not for appraisal. Therefore I do not want to have final appraisal column selected.
However when I was creating category n save, I was getting error " select at least column obj0,fapp or papp".
Is there any way I can create template without final appraisal? Appreciate your thoughts.

Hi Praveen,
It seems like you have created an Objective setting template. If you don't want final appraisals, you can just select 'OBJ0' column and uncheck FAPP & PAPP columns. I hope this helps in solving your issue.
Best Regards,
Sachin

Final cut pro not working with Yosemite

I yesterday installed Yosemite and the previous version of Final Cut Pro does not work with it. When I try to install the latest version of Final Cut Pro from the purchased tab in the app store, I get the message: "Final Cut can't be installed on this computer because it requires at least 4 GB of memory". When I go to the storage tab in "About This Mac", it shows that I have 154.49 GB free of 319.21 GB. Can someone help? Many thanks.

It's a 2007 iMac with 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo. I had been using Final Cut Pro without any problems right until I upgraded to Yosemite. I'm hoping that upgrading to Yosemite doesn't mean I can't continue using Final Cut Pro - that would be extremely frustrating.

Membership rules does not work with UDF column name having the max length

Found a bug in OIM .
Membership rules does not work with UDF column name having the maximum length
Steps to Reproduce
1.Create a UDF having max column name length for eg UDF_USR_PERSONAL_SUB_DOMAIN_CO (lable = Personal Code)
2. Create a simple Rule like Personal Code = 7000
3. Assign this Rule as a member ship rule of a Group.
4. Create a user with Personal Code = 7000.
5. User doesnot get the group membership.
Thanks
Suren

Yes , i verified logs as well .
If you just decrease the column name length , w/o making change to any other attributes , it starts working ..
Thanks

It now will not work with OS Yosemite. How do I update Final cut so I can use it?
I am new to Mac Book Pro so I need help!!!

You get FCPX legally only via AppStore; it then gets 'bonded' to your AppleID/Appstore account.
To update, log in with the Account you have purchased it - click update (for free)
If you don't have the Account data, you're not owner of the software. No free drinks updates.
Log in with YOUR ID, click purchase - ring! 300$ .............

Final Cut Pro does not work with Yosemite. Can it be fixed?

Final Cut Pro does not work with Yosemite. Can it be fixed?

Hi Tom, I don't know if you can help me.
I'm using Final Cut version 10.1.4 with Yosemite 10.10.2 and whenever I open FCP it opens for about 5 seconds (not allowing me to click anywhere) before closing with the message "Final Cut Pro quit unexpectedly. click reopen to open the application again. This report will be sent to apple automatically." I have tried opening it multiple times and the same thing has been happening over and over again and i've tried everything I could find on the internet and nothing is working.
HELP.
Jada.

Window 10 build 10041 does not work with Intel 82579V Gigabit Ethernet on ASUS motherboard

I originally posted this question here:
answers.microsoft.com/en-us/insider/forum/insider_wintp-insider_update/window-10-build-10041-does-not-work-with-intel/6729892f-83aa-4822-b20a-ea84f4fd06c7
and was asked to post it on this forum...
I updated a computer I have which is a quad core i7 that I built and includes an ASUS motherboard with Intel 82579V Gigabit Ethernet built in. Windows 10 preview 9926 worked fine with this network adapter. Window 10 build 10041 does not, and I have tried
it twice so far. I even went as far as buying a Thunderbolt-Gigabit Ethernet Adapter (Broadcom, sold by Apple)... and while it installed the driver automatically, it did not work either. Each time you try to view the properties of either of them, it locks
up or give an error. In fact, doing much of anything with the Intel adapter icon assures you of not being able to do a clean reboot... have to kill power. I have finally gone back the previous version 9926, which has its issues but no where near as bad
as not having any network connectivity! Does anyone have this issue and a workaround?
Note, there are two images on the windows 10 preview forum that I posted this question on. I could not post the full link as I was getting a message here that links and graphics are not allowed.

Thanks Roger, I posted the following yesterday in the other thread (thinking it was this thread - confusing after they moved it here)... It may be that the new driver fixes the issue that 10041 has with it, but I have not tried that yet. If I do I will update
this... Thanks!
I have more information about this, which basically exonerates any issue with the Intel 82579V Gigabit Ethernet hardware or software. I have 3 computers with Windows 10 preview so I have multiple angles to see issues from. With this I have found a culprit
(but I suspect not just the only culprit) in this above mentioned problem...
10041 build combined with installing (or attempting to install) CISCO VPN Windows 7 64bit 5.0.07.0440-k9 client causes the issue mentioned above. I confirmed this on a completely different machine with a totally different Ethernet adapter. First machine
is an ASUS motherboard in a tower system I built, with the Intel 82579V Gigabit Ethernet hardware built in. Second machine is a Gateway Laptop from 2008 which has a Marvell Yukon 88E8057 PCI-E Gigabit adapter built in. Build 10041 will work fine with my 2008
laptop, including the MS VPN client (which I have tested). However, if you attempt to install or even uninstall the Cisco client you will have to do a recovery to a restore point (as I have done twice) in order to get your network working again. Installing
or attempting to install (because it never even does install properly and times out), CISCO VPN client will render your entire network unusable. Going back to a restore point saved me and I am still running 10041 but I can't use CISCO VPN client any longer.
I could with build 9926, including on all 3 machines. I now have 9926 on two machines and 10041 on only the 2008 laptop.
Hopefully this above information helps someone resolve the issue. I will also mention, even though my network is working on the 2008 laptop, I still can't go into the Control Panel\Network and Internet\Network Connections and right mouse click on the Marvell
Yukon 88E8057 PCI-E Gigabit adapter icon. I get an error when clicking on Properties menu popup : "An unexpected error has occurred". So something is still up with my network adapter driver or windows software, but it could be a side effect of all
that has happened with the Cisco software install attempts under 10041.
Another note: CISCO Anyconnect also has the issue.

Dreamweaver CS 5.5 not working with Godaddy FTP with TLS/SSL

I've upgraded to CS 5.5 and tried to connect to a client's Godaddy account with FTP with TLS/SSL it fails. Works perfectly with my mac app Transmit every time as it always has. It doesn't work with implicit or explicit settings with authentication set to none or otherwise.
Can someone please let me know if Dreamweaver will ever be compatible with FTP with TLS/SSL and Godaddy? Or is there some setting I can try that will make it work now somehow?
Been waiting years for this....

SnakEyez02 wrote:
First, that's a Godaddy problem if their security isn't up to par.
That may be the case that Godaddy is also at fault, but every other FTP app I use with Godaddy works fine. It's just Dreamweaver and has always been just Dreamweaver not working with a secure connection to Godaddy. Considering Godaddy is the largest webhost in the USA, you'd think Adobe would have fixed this years ago. I should also mention I'm not endorsing Godaddy and I understand there's plenty of people that don't like Godaddy for very good reasons.
Sent you PM with FTP account with Godaddy yesterday. Thank you for taking a look!
UPDATE: Whoops, I see you responded via private message already. I'll paste most of it here in hopes it helps others to understand the issue:
via SnakEyez02 PM:
Ok this took a lot of digging. I won't say it's not a DW issue 100% and I will report a bug for your problem, but DW is not the problem alone Godaddy needs to share the blame here for a bad certificate. Here is what is happening:
I'll start with DW:
- The settings are correct that were in the post. Port 21, FTP explicit, and the authentication should be set to None (encyprtion only). This is where the transmission is encrypted using SSL, but the certificate is shared and not specific to the domain owner. That is the difference between DW's "none" and "trusted". It's a poor choice of words I'll give them that. However, Godaddy seems to want all connections to be trusted thus the other error you get when you turn on the None option. Now could DW do what Transmit does, warn you and write in an unsigned certificate into the Keychain app, probably, is it best practice for security reasons to "Trust" an unsigned certificate probably not.
Now Transmit:
- As explained above Transmit opens up a prompt to override and create a fake-trusted signed certificate. Thus by forcing the OS to think a legitimate certificate is there it gets you through albeit through unconventional methods.
The problem:
- A good portion of this problem lies with Godaddy. Now I use a shared hosting account and set one up on an independant host for a friend of mine and both of them accept the shared certificates (SSL explicit). The difference is the hostname of the certificate. I ran a traceroute (from Network Utility in Utilities folder) on your website and came up with the following address: 173.201.23x.x.
The problem is that the certificate on your server is actually not for that server which is the reason DW seems to have such an issue with it. The SSL certificate that Godaddy put on your shared server is for host - 173.201.19x.5x. As you can see, it's a certificate for another server. Honestly the fact that Panic's Transmit allows this override scares me a little bit and the fact that Godaddy never noticed this issue either scares me to. So while DW could write in a bad certificate I can see why this is happening.
I know there is not much solice in my answer because it still doesn't alleviate the problem that you have with DW connecting. Unfortunately I do not have a workaround despite my numerous attempts to try and gain access over a secure connection. One alternative you could ask Godaddy for in the meantime is an SSH connection which would allow you to use SFTP instead of FTPS. But that's a short-term solution to a long-term problem.
If you think of anything else feel free to bounce any ideas off me I don't mind. Good luck in getting this solved and I will post a bug report to make Adobe aware of the issue.
Thank you for looking into this issue in depth like you have!
I think the issue might be that Godaddy is applying cost saving measures to keep their prices down in the way they implement their certificates (but it also wouldn't surprise me to know it's simply ineptitude on Godaddy's part either). I'm not sure I fault Panic with Transmit much at all because it clearly warns you about the certificate and it's your choice to continue. And, as it stands now, it's much safer to continue to connect that way with Transmit than to stop and connect with no encryption at all at a public hotspot.
As it stands now, you really shouldn't connect to Godaddy with Dreamweaver at a public hotspot unless you set up an SSH tunnel with your connection first. But enabling SSH is an added expense in many ways including paying for the service, using more computer resources for tunneling and time setting it up and implementation... all because Dreamweaver won't just allow developers the option like Transmit does.
Once again, thank you for looking at this and I hope someone at Adobe finally address this issue for the security of its customers who use Godaddy (which is often not their choice and was, instead, the choice of their clients to use Godaddy as a webhost).
Just a side note, I contacted Godaddy support about this several years ago and they were unresponsive and even hostile about it - So that's definitely another vote against Godaddy from me as well.

My Time Capsule does not work with existing WiFi

Following a question solved on March 24 by LaPastenague, but gone bad again.
Apple AirPort Time Capsule
I felt the need for a physical backup of my data, as I would not completely trust the different clouds. I use, and have used Dropbox for 4-5 years and are very satisfied with that, but I am still not sure if or when a political lunatic will shut off the internet.
I purchased the Apple AP Time Capsule 2T, because all my other stuff are Apple, and that it's wireless. My old backup is Maxtor 300 GB.
Since we stay 2-3 weeks on two locations, one in Norway and one in Sweden (two different countries) we must use Mobile Broadband 4G, cables or fibre connections are useless for us, and we don't have it up to the houses. I have one mini router for each country, we bring with us iPhones, iPads, iMac, Apple TV, APExpress. When we pass the boarder I change the mini router, and the system continues working perfect on the WiFi, except the APExpress that needs to be reconfigured, but then it works.
The APTC was difficult to make working as it would not accept to be in an existing network, but with good help from the Apple Community, LaPastenague, with forcing the TC connect to the APE with Ethernet cable in bridge mode, ref "My Time Capsule does not work with existing WiFi" from March 24, the problem was solved and all gadgets worked together in a perfect harmony, until we changed location.
Now, as I have my second WiFi network, and the APExspress is reconfigured, it's like the TC thinks, I am the base boss here, I am not taking orders from APE one more time, and it simply does not work, not only that, it fluctuates all the time.
I have a slight feeling that the two WiFi bands are making the trouble as during the configuration of the TC sometime the last figure 6 and 7 pops up, and that has something two do with the two different 2,4 and 5 GHZ bands
So, I am curious if you have any idea ?
I am thinking of returning the TC if I don't make it work now, but how do I delete all the data that's on it?

I can deal with the last question first and easily.
I am thinking of returning the TC if I don't make it work now, but how do I delete all the data that's on it?
Open the airport utility .. go to the disk tab and select erase.
When you select erase you will get mulitiple options.
Quick removes the file table but does not delete the files,, it takes 2min or less.
A Zero out data is the secure way,, by writing 0 ie low level drive format.
It can take several hours..
7 pass will take a week.. not recommended..
35 pass erase is ridiculous.. it would take a month.. put an ax through the TC. It is quick and better.
Now, as I have my second WiFi network, and the APExspress is reconfigured, it's like the TC thinks, I am the base boss here, I am not taking orders from APE one more time, and it simply does not work, not only that, it fluctuates all the time.
The fact that it did work and has now failed might point to faulty unit.
The only way to tell is reset it properly to factory and start over.
Universal Factory Reset.. any model TC or AE.
Unplug your TC/AE from power or turn off at the power point.
Hold in reset. and power the TC/AE back on.. all without releasing reset and keep holding in for about 10sec. (this is often difficult without a 2nd person or a 3rd arm).
Release it when the status light flashes rapidly. If it doesn’t flash rapidly you have missed it and try again.
Note..
Be Gentle! Feel the switch click on. It has a positive feel.. add no more pressure after that.
TC/AE will reboot after a couple of minutes with default factory settings and will wipe out previous configurations of the router.
No files are deleted on the hard disk in a TC.. No reset of the TC deletes files.. to do that you use erase from the airport utility.
Generally having multiple wireless AP should not cause problems.. but it is better to set channels manually.. so it doesn't go beserk rotating channels.
Remember to keep all names short, no spaces and pure alphanumeric.
Sadly though the Apple routers have no logging now and no SNMP and almost nothing to help diagnose a problem, so if it continues .. take it back to apple.. they have given you no other method of fixing it.

I have done the following:
Downloaded the patched hal version.
used makepkg in /abs/local/trunk/ to create a pkg for pacman
used sudo pacman -U pkgname to install it.
used sudo nano /etc/hal/fdi/policy/preferences.fdi to create the fdi file with the following content:
saved the file and removed my ntfs entryes from fstab and rebooted. and still there is no automount off ntfs partitions.
have i done something wrong?
br fjodork
WARNING: what follows is a guide of what did work for me, I'm still in an early stage of learning linux, so please correct me if anything of what follows is wrong/dangerous/stupid. As I said, this worked for me, it's not pretty, since I was learning each step on the fly and I'm sure there are better ways to do this.
So fjodork, you seem to have done the the necessary steps, though i couldn't get it to work until i first removed hal without dependencies
pacman -Rd hal
it will give you some warning about the dependencies, ignore it since we are reinstalling hal in a few steps.
First i tried to follow Raymano's link, obviously it showed me nothing in the browser so I thought it might be a broken link.
So I downloaded the source tarball from here http://hal.freedesktop.org/releases/hal-0.5.10.tar.gz
unpacked it changed the /tools/hal-storage-mount.c as per Milfadoodle's instructions.
at first I tried to compile directly from source, the process would finish without a glitch though after reboot nothing changed, as if hal weren't
installed, i guess there were issues with paths. anyway read on
Then repacked the source in tarball, copied it to /var/abs/extra/system/hal and modified the PKGBUILD as follows
makedepends=('pkgconfig' 'gperf')
options=('!libtool')
install=hal.install
source=(${pkgname}-${pkgver}.tar.gz #removed url so makepkg looks in the current directory for the tarball
hal
hal-policy.patch
cryptsetup_location.patch
hal-0.5.9-hide-diagnostic.patch
ntfs3g-valid-options.patch)
md5sums=('6641c30a27c00485c6accac5110ff911' # replace with md5sum of your package's sourceball (run md5sum filename)
'882f67668cb14a0a9e4a27ef22278027'
'5ba8b610aa9763a5f42b9f7cbd7a86ad'
then makepkg (i had to add --asroot, don't ask why
and finally pacman -U hal-0.5.10-1-i686.pkg
another reboot and everything worked without a glitch!:D (yeah i know i still haven't got rid of the reboot mentality )
I have also put the policy files as per the wiki instructions.
PS: I know this is a dirty way to getting things done but as i said, I'm just starting
If anyone could comment/correct/explain this post I'd be more than happy, the automount issue was bothering me for about a month now (you'll say why do I need ntfs in the first place? well, I only recently switched for Linux as my primary OS, these are some relics of the M$ era

Safari not working with Yosemite- incompatible with google search too

Ever since I upgraded my macbook pro, Safari has been slow. In the past 2 days, it's more than slow - it's impossible. I am able to get to pages I have bookmarked or get to links in email documents - but every time I try to do a search using the search bar in Safari, it hangs. Sometimes I get a list of possible websites (after a few minutes) but if I click on any of those, Safari just hangs there and won't go. I even had to use Chrome in order to generate this question in the discussion groups. Does anyone have any suggestions other than using an alternate browser. Is it possible that google and Safari on Yosemite are incompatible? I did try using the "Develop" menubar option and chose DuckDuckgo as the search tool and it worked a bit better.
This is now the 2nd big issue I've had with Yosemite -- it totally would not work with my Adobe Photoshop Elements program -- I spent hours on the Adobe forums and discovered that 100s of others were also having issues. It turned out to be a problem with Yosemite and the trackpad. Adobe finally came up with a temporary plugin that allows Elements (and other Adobe programs) to run.
Suggesions on Safari other than ditching it and using Chrome?

Try a Safari reset.
Safari/Preferences/Advanced - enable the Develop menu, then go there and Empty Caches. Quit/reopen Safari and test. Then try Safari/History/Show History and delete all history items. Quit/reopen Safari and test. You can also try try Safari/Clear History and Web Site Data. The down side is it clears all cookies.Doing this may cause some sites to no longer recognize your computer as one that has visited the web site.

MBP CD2 DVI to VGA not working with projector

I am having issues getting the MBP to recognize a DELL 2300 projector through a DVI to VGA apple cable.
A few months ago there were posts about this, but no solutions. The problem seems to be with the 'INTEL' side of things, as the same projector with the same DVI to VGA apple cable works on an older G4 tower running 10.4.9. The projector also works on an old G4 iBook with it's version of a VGA adapter. To make things more confusing, a DVI to Video apple cable works with the DELL 2300 on my new MBP C2D-but produces a terrible quality picture. Mysteriously, my previous 1st generation MBP CD worked with the DELL 2300 via a DVI to VGA apple cable (but I'm not sure which OS was out at the time 10.4.8?)
My new MBP CD2 definately recognizes the projector through the DVI to VGA adapter, but the projector doesn't recognize the video signal from the computer. It is DEFINATELY the MBP (or universal drivers), as I have checked the DVI to VGA dongle (works), have checked the projector (works with an ibook running 10.4.8 OSX with VGA dongle), have changed resolution settings before and after connecting, have restarted computer, have tested various orders of connecting the projector and cables. STINK! (I also have TWO DVI to VGA adapters, so it is not a bad adapter). I have also played with exchanging various plist files from older universal versions of 10.4.8 that worked with the projector-no help.
As I stated, the projector will work (in horrible quality) with a DVI to Video dongle. Why it will not work with the DVI to VGA dongle is a mystery and annoying I would hope that a newer MBP CD2 would be plug and play (like my previous MBP CD and an old G4 tower and an old iBook G4...but no).
Any ideas, any help, any answers?

Here are the actors in our play today
1. MacBookPro A. (my system a CD2 2.16 with OSX 10.4.9)
2. MacBookPro B. (my friends system a CD2 2.16 with OSX 10.4.9)
3. an iBook (my friends 1.07 GHz G4 with 10.4.8 and a VGA adapter)
4. DELL 2300 MP projector
Plugged in DVI to VGA adapter to the virgin MacBookPro B (never had the projector plugged into it before) Dell projector shows that it recognizes an analog RGB 800X600 signal from MBP B. It projects a beautiful desktop. All is well for a moment.
In Display preferences we see for the MBP B
Color LCD, Display: 800X600 stretched, Colors: Millions, Refresh Rate: N/A
VGA Display
Now, I unplug the DVI to VGA adapter and naturally MBP B readjusts to it's native resolution. Great.
Now I immediately plug back in the DVI to VGA adapter. The computer and the projector searches for signal with none found, while the computer shows no attempt at an automatic readjustment as above (800X600 stretched).
I try the 'detect display' option. It causes computer to stall for a second (as it searches) but it does not detect projector and does not readjust it's own resolution to 800X600 stretched as it did initially. F7 key does nothing.
This is a problem!
So, I shut down the projector. I unplug the projector's power source and waited 20 seconds. plugged it back in, started projector back up.
I shut down/restarted the MBP B.
I plug back in the DVI to VGA adapter into the MBP B. The MBP B screen flashes to all blue, but does not automatically change to 800X600 stretched (remains at native resolution and does not recognize an external monitor/projector)
Enter the iBook!
I plug the iBook's VGA adapter into the projector. The projector shows that it recognizes an analog RGB 1024X768 60Hz signal and projects desktop screen immediately. Plug and play!
iBook display prefs reveal:
Color LCD, 1024X768, colors: Millions, Refresh rate: N/A
Color tab: Generic RGB Profile
VGA display, 1024X768, colors: Millions,
Now. I unplug adapter from iBook, iBook readjusts to native display
plugged back in adapter to iBook, immediately recognizes and displays projected desktop.
Scene 2: The FREAKY thing!
Now, I immediately (after unplugging the adapter from the iBook) change adapters to the DVI to VGA adapter and plug the projector into the MacBookPro B, whallla! Back in business. (computer screen adjusted to 800X600, and projector recognized signal).
Now, what about my computer? I unplug from MBP B and plug into MacBookPro A, and NOTHING...the computer doesn't automatically adjust to a new resolution, and the projector doesn't recognize any signal from the computer.
Ahhhh Freak out! Now, I plugged adapter back into MacBookPro B, and now back to NOTHING. MBP B no longer recognizes projector or readjusts it's resolution. Was something somehow corrupted?
Now, I plugged iBook VGA adapter back in, and iBook once again with it's awesome G4 technology (or dated video drivers or something) recognizes the projector in an instant and projects the screen.
Now, logically I try again to immediately unplug the adapter from the iBook and switch adapters and plug back into MacBookPro B-it worked once right? But, sorry, NOT twice. The mystery deepens.
Well, I think, maybe it is because I didn't restart MacBookPro B before attempting the switcharoo from iBook to MacBookPro.
So, I plug back into iBook-projector. And the iBook works immediately again.
I restart MacBookPro B and plug in to the freshly restarted MBP B...HOUSTON WE HAVE LIFT OFF! The MacBookPro B recognizes the projector and the projector kindly displays the desktop.
Now what about MacBookPro A...Last time, when I did the switcharoo, it corrupted something to cause the MBP B not to work. Let's try it again. Will this plug-unplug-restart-switch adapters-immediatly plug in technique work...let's see. I restart MBP A, and plug DVI to VGA adapter in. Sorry. Same ol' no signals recognized. MacBookPro A not auto readjusting resolution, and does not list any projector in display prefs.
Let's get crazy and immediately plug the adapter into the MacBookPro B...it works-oh so logical...NOT! Why wasn't it corrupted this time by MBP A? MacBookPro B readjusts its screen to 800X600 stretched and projector immediately recognizes and projects desktop.
Now lets see if I can break it again as before. I unplug it from MacBookPro B and back into MacBook Pro B, knowing that this caused it to stop working previously. And...it still works-WHAT? I do it a third time. It still works on MacBookPro B.
So,
I plug it back into MacBookPro A...still nothing. Back to MacbookPro B works like a charm. This time it struggles a bit showing that initially it sees a signal from MacBookPro B of 1192X900 (i Think), then the MacBookPro B switches automatically to 800X600 and the projector works.
Wait..I see something amiss! I see in my MBP A menu bar an icon for Labtick which MBP B does not have. I shut down Labtick, plug back in the DVI to VGA adapter and 'Boom' the projector is recognized.
I unplug DVI to VGA adapter and plug back in to MBP A and 'Boom' the projector is recognized again...no it couldn't be!
Well, it is possible it couldn't be because, I shut down the projector, unplug it's power source, plug it back in. I plug it back into the recently working MBP A with Labtick not running, and sorry folks, now the projector doesn't work again. The MBP A does not readjust it's resolution, nor recognize a projector and the projector doesn't recognize the MBP A.
Let's try the projector in MBP B....same deal. Now it doesn't work. Same symptoms of MBP A.
Back to the good ol' iBook. Of course it works.
Now switching over directly to a restarted MBP B. -DOESN'T WORK (as it did using this technique previously)
Now switching over to MBP A- DOESN'T WORK.
As you can see, it is hard even with multiple computers to find a series of doing things that consistently makes the projector work.
Any thoughts, ideas, ways to diagnose? Thanks!

HDX 9010nr, Radeon 2600 will not work with WIndows 7

Apparently, HP is not going to support the HDX 9010nr for Windows 7. That's the bad news, the good news is that it "mostly" works.
The only big issue is that the display driver stops every few minutes and then restarts. So you sit there for thirty seconds while the machine recovers. But, it doesn’t support a second screen; and worse, every 10th time the video driver crashes; it locks up the whole machine.
ATI has a version of the Radeon 2600 software that worked with the Release Candidate (RC) of Windows 7, but it will not work with the shipped version of Windows 7. ATI recommends that you get a version from your hardware vendor. Which brings me back to the first sentence. HP isn't supporting the 9010nr.
The question is do any of the "supported" HP laptops have the ATI Radeon 2600? If so, might that work on the HDX 9010nr?
This question was solved.

Updating the BIOS solved this problem.
