Beige G3 - upgrade from 8.6

Hi all -
Have an old Beige G3. Upgraded it from 8.6 to 9.0 then from 9.0 to 9.1 then to 9.2.2. After the upgrade from 9.1 to 9.2.2 the usb mouse stopped working. The mouse was working fine prior to going to 9.2.2.
I tried another mouse and also swapped out the USB card with a different one. Still no go.
I would like to re-install the USB Adapter Support package, but I have no mouse and cannot navigate with the keyboard very well. Basically I cannot seem to figure out how to "Agree" to the disclaimer to move on with the installation.
Just FYI. The kb is ADB and our old ADB mouse is long gone.
Can anyone give me some pointers or at least link to/descrive the keyboard shortcuts, specifically "Agreeing" to disclaimers!
Thanks,
Scott

This thread is a little old I know. I had the same troublewith my Microsoft(sorry) Intellimouse after upgrading my Beige G3/300 from 8.6 to 9.2. Worked fine b4 hand. The profiler didn't see the mouse.
I found that by replacing the USB Device Extension from OS 9.2,(1.5.8) with the original OS 8.6 extension (1.4.1)it works well. Not sure if this has other implications.
Hope this helps.
P.s. Always have a dinosaur mouse on hand for these occasions. Can't beat the new optical 5 button jobs though! regards jerremy

  • Stability issues after upgrading from OS 10.2.6 to OS 10.2.8

    Hey to all the Mac experts,
    I'm new to the Macs. I recently purchased a 2nd hand Power Mac G3 Beige Desktop for really cheap to learn and get a better understanding of Macs. It currently has 256 mb ram, G3 300 mhz cpu, 10 gig WD HD, 4.7 gig Mac DVD drive, 10 mb NIC, floppy, original mouse and keyboard, an USB add-on card, and video port adapter to use with SVGA monitors. It came with Mac OS 10.2 Jaguar loaded on and cd's. From the info, this older unit can't support or run 10.3 or 10.4. So, I'm fine with 10.2.
    My main concern is issues when I use the Software update feature and upgraded from 10.2.6 to 10.2.8. This MAC should run 10.2.8 according to the specs. After the update and restart, I sometimes get a blank screen, or can't move the mouse, lockups and random keyboard issues. I ended up reinstalling from scratch with just cds. I didn't load any 3rd party software. I reran the software update feature again. Same thing as before. After erasing and reloading a 2nd time. I only did the updates for everything but up to 10.2.8. I searched the apple site and downloaded the updates from 10.2.0 to 10.2.6. So, no problem with that. The only 3rd party software currently installed is Firefox 1.5 and adobe reader 6.01 plus all software updates for Quicktime, Safari, etc.
    Now my question is, what is the reason why it can't properly run version 10.2.8? Is there a workaround or solution to this problem? I know I could get by with 10.2.6, but what's the point when it should load and run 10.2.8 according to the specs here?
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=43124
    Thanks in advance for any info.
    PS> I read about sometimes Macs need a firmware update to properly run Mac OS 10. So, this is the only firmware I found for this MAC and it turns out I don't need it.

  • Beige G3 upgrade help needed

    Hello everybody.
    I have a few questions about upgrading the G3 if anyone would be willing to help.
    First of all, I must tell you that I am new to the apple world, having been for most of my life a PC/windows user.
    The story so far:
    I was given a beige G3 desktop by a friend who had upgraded to the G5. I decided to use the G3 as a web browser and general 'lifestyle' computer as I use my PC for business.
    However the G3 was a little old and outdated as it was for my needs.
    G3 266MHz
    256MB RAM
    6 MB VRAM
    6GB HDD
    Mac OS 8.6
    I couldn't even get it online as the modem cable had been lost long ago (it had been connected to my friends office network)
    I tried building a modem cable myself out of a printer cable and a PC modem cable and that, as you can imagine, failed in a major way.
    I did a bit of research and found out that OSX can connect to a windows network so I set about getting a copy of jaguar.
    Once I got hold of a copy of jaguar (from applerescue £28 inc delivery)
    I installed it without a problem and connected to my windows network allowing me to utilise my existing broadband connection.
    Excellent, thought I, but why stop there.
    I have built and upgraded many pc's in my time and I had a few components hanging around. Will they work in the G3?
    One way to find out.
    The first problem I encountered was one of cables and space. As you all probably know the beige G3 does not have much room inside for extras.
    I also found that the desktop case was not suited to the environment. It took up way too much space on my desk. I couldn't put the monitor on top of it as it is a big heavy 20inch crt (my friend is a graphic designer) and there is a shelf over my desk that prevents it. However there was a space under my desk which the case would fit in perfectly, if only it was on its side.
    Merely putting the case on its side didn't help. The design of the case meant that the thing kept falling over. The cds would fall out too and I had no idea what damage it would do in the long term.
    So, junior hacksaw and drill in hand, I set about a major conversion.
    A day later I had sucessfully ripped all the components from the G3 case and fitted them in a standard ATX PC case. Now it fits under my desk perfectly.
    I fitted the original apple PSU inside the case and fitted the ATX PSU on top.
    I spent a little money online and got a 1GHz G3 upgrade from OWC.
    (A brief word about OWC. Ordered Sunday evening, package delivered with no VAT or customs charges on Wednesday! Better delivery than a UK vendor and loads cheaper too!)
    I used some PC100 RAM I had lying around from a previous PC build.
    Standard crucial 184pin SDRAM. Worked no problem. I ordered an extra stick of RAM along with the CPU upgrade.
    So I now have a G3 in a ATX tower case.
    1GHz G3 CPU
    768 MB RAM
    Original 6 GB hard drive
    Extra 17GB hard drive
    Mac OS X
    Loads of extra room inside for extras.
    I run the hard drives and the motherboard plus a heatsink/fan on the CPU from the apple PSU and the optical drives and a few extra fans from the second PSU.
    Sorry that was a long read but I tend to get carried away when I am talking about computers.
    Here are some problems I am having which I hope you kind, clever people can help me with.
    1. I have a missing hard drive.
    I have two ATA hard drives on the internal IDE channel 0 which work fine-ish (see question 2)
    I have the original apple CDROM as master on internal IDE 1 and a small 1GB hard drive as slave on internal IDE 1. The small hard drive doesn't show up on the desktop. I can see the drive in disk utility but I can't do anything with it. It is not greyed out but any erasing or partioning gets so far then just stops. However, opening disk utility during installation doesn't have the same problems. I can erase and partition the drive and it shows up with the second listing under the name of the disk. Once OS X is installed it shows up on the desktop perfectly functioning. Once I have restarted it is gone again.
    I read somwhere that having a hard drive and CDROM on the same IDE channel can cause problems, is this what is happening here?
    I have a yamaha CDRW on the internal SCSI bus, if I use that as my CD drive and remove the CDROM from the IDE channel will that help (I'll try that anyway)
    2. The original apple hard drive works so much better than the extra drive I fitted. I installed a 17GB drive as master and have installed OS X on it but it is so slow. I know the drive is 4600rpm but I can't believe how much faster the apple hard drive is. I have installed OS X on both drives and the difference is stunning. With OSX installed on my 17GB drive it takes just over 14 minutes to boot up, with OSX installed on the apple 6GB drive it is more like 2 minutes. I know that the 17GB drive is old and slow but that is a big difference. Could it be a driver problem?
    I have looked around online for drivers for the hard drive but, as I said before, being new to the apple side of computers I don't really know where to start looking.
    3. I have installed an unsupported USB card. It seems to work fine. Everytime I boot up I get a message saying:
    'over current warning - the usb device installed is drawing too much power, the hub it is attached to will be disabled.'
    I click okay but the thing still works!
    I have a wireless mouse plugged into it and it works fine even though it has been disabled.
    Is this going to explode?
    The words 'over current' sound scary.
    4. Harking back to question 1. If I disconnect the CDROM on the internal channel to enable me to use my third hard drive, will I be able to boot from the SCSI CDRW?
    5. Can anyone suggest a good system monitoring program? As mentioned I bought a CPU upgrade and I am a little suspicious about it. I want to know what speed it is running at. The docs that came with it say the the apple system profiler will not give the correct reading of CPU speed and I should use CPU director instead.
    Call me cynical but is it possible that the CPU I bought is not what it says on the tin.
    ASP says it is 333MHz and it should be 1GHz. CPU director does indeed say it is running at 1GHz but can I believe that? It is, in my opinion, possible to write a piece of software to give the wrong CPU speed thereby allowing someone to sell a 333MHz chip as a 1GHz chip and saying 'only our software can give correct readings'
    I had the same thing with a broadband supplier recently. My connection was really slow for days. I ran several online speed checks to ascertain the speed. Out of the six speed checks only the suppliers own one said I was getting the connection speed I should have been, all the others gave really low speeds which reflected in the fact that it took an age for a web page to download, not something you should be getting on a 2Mbit connection.
    On the phone to the suppliers customer services and they refused to take any speed check but theirs as true. I ran theirs and it always came up with the same number. 'Then your connection is working perfectly' they said. The five other speed checks and my own eyes told a different story but they wouldn't have any of it, instead telling me my PC was to blame, even going on to tell me to disable firewall and antivirus and run my PC in safe mode with no startup programs!! ********. Anyway, I want a third opinion about processor speeds so if anyone could tell me the name of a good program to do this (preferably free) I would be grateful.
    Thanks for any help any of you can give me. I am learning more and more about apple hardware by the day and I am fast becoming one of the converted.

    Hey guys,
    thanks for answering so soon.
    To answer the questions asked:
    The motherboard is either a rev b or c. I remember checking this when I first had the idea of upgrading the cpu. I am not sure if it is a b or c but it is definately not rev a.
    I think the cpu upgrade is working fine.
    As Frank mentioned, it seems most of the cpu speed utilities use ASP for their information and give exactly the same speed reading.
    I went a little more basic.
    I ran CPU director and put the cpu speed at 333MHz and timed how long it took a few apps to open, then used CPU director to put the speed up to 1000MHz and timed the same programs again.
    The speed difference was more than noticeable so from this I can only assume the CPU is running at 1GHz.
    I have installed 9.2 on a seperate partition but it seems to be a weird version.
    It came with a freinds G5 software for his iMac and is labelled 'additional software'
    I installed it on a whim (because I am like that) and it gave me 'classic support'
    I can now run classic apps in OSX and I have, on occasion, been able to boot into the 9.2 system. Only occasionally though.
    Once booted into the 9.2 system there is no optical drive support and hardly any of the options I remember from OS8.6.
    From this I am assuming that it is a cut down version of 9.2 bundled with new iMacs to enable users to use classic apps.
    That doesn't explain why sometimes I can boot into it though.
    Any of you heard of something like that.
    I am planning to purchase a full copy of 9.2 when funds allow.
    I have disconnected the CDROM which is on the same IDE channel as my third hard drive and used the cuda button to force the motherboard to recheck its hardware. Upon boot though the only difference it made is that I didn't have a CDROM. The third hard drive was still awol.
    The SCSI yamaha CDRW is bootable but that makes little difference as disconnecting my IDE CDROM makes no difference on whether or not I can see the third hard drive.
    I do know about the 8GB partition and OSX is sitting on the first partition which is 7.95GB.
    I tried using xpostfacto to get around this which kind of worked. It did allow me to put OSX on a larger partition but caused no end of problems at boot so I cleared NVRAM and erased all the hard disks and started afesh.
    The 17GB hard drive is in fact 15.91 GB, sorry about that. It came in a PC I bought which was (incorrectly) labelled as having a 17GB hard drive and since then I have just called it the '17GB hard drive'.
    Since I last wrote I have done a little more research on the hard drives and found that the 6GB original apple drive and the 15GB drive are both 5400rpm so that cannot be the problem.
    Here is some more accurate information on the drives:
    IDE 0-
    Master - 15.91GB Fujitsu MPE3170AT - seems to work fine apart from the aforementioned slowness - first partition is 7.95GB with OSX installed.
    Slave - 6GB Maxtor 90651U2 - works fine
    IDE 1-
    Master - Matshita CR57 CDROM - works fine and is bootable.
    Slave - 1.19GB WDC AC21200H - this is the one I just cannot use or see.
    SCSI internal - Yamaha CDRW - works fine and is bootable.
    Could the problem be that I have overloaded the internal bus by having four devices on the IDE and a SCSI device?
    I have since used a program called disk warrior which states that the 1GB WDC disk is of an unrecognisable format.
    I have sucessfully used disk utility to zero it out but it makes no difference.
    I think it may just be trashed.
    The USB card is still a puzzle.
    I am, right now, using a mouse plugged into the USB card which is, according to OSX, disabled.
    Scratching of head.
    Maybe it is still functioning because the apple PSU has lots spare to give because I have a second PSU taking a lot of the strain? I just don't know.
    This whole boot time thing is puzzling to the extreme.
    As I said before. I have installed OSX on the 6GB Maxtor drive and the machine starts up in under 2 minutes so I can only assume that there is no hardware problem elsewhere.
    When I use the Fujitsu drive its 10 - 14 minutes. So from that it is logical to assume it is the hard drive. Maybe it has a really small cache or something. Or maybe the apple just doesn't like it much.
    Once the machine is up and running it runs just fine. A few programs like entourage are a little slow to boot.
    I don't know what the benchmark is as I have never used an Apple except this one.
    For instance safari takes around 2 seconds for the icon to stop bouncing and about 5 seconds in total to be up and have loaded the home page. Is that about normal?
    Another question I have to ask you fine fellows.
    Can you move some of OSX's built in applications and utilities to a seperate partition and still have them function properly?
    I would like to use the apple hard drive as the OSX installation disk but at 6GB, once I have installed the OS there ain't much room left for anything else.
    I have already installed MS office and Appleworks and a few other apps to a separate partition and they work fine.
    I suppose though that if I did that and the problem is slow access to the fujitsu disk, once I installed OSX to the apple disk and installed apps to the fujitsu disk I would still have problems accessing those apps.
    i don't know really. I think I am going to have to take the machine apart again and experiment until I can find the problem.
    Another quick question.
    Could it be RAM? Surely either RAM works or it doesn't right?
    My system is correctly identifying the 768megs of RAM, if there was a problem with the 512MB of PC100 RAM I installed it just wouldn't show up.
    Anyway, thanks for all your help so far,
    I think I am going to save some cash and buy a new Apple machine - any suggestions which?
    Broddr.

  • Prepping to upgrade from 10.2.8 to 10.4 -- problem with Disk Utility

    I have an 17" iMac that I'm preparing to upgrade from 10.2.8 to 10.4. In preparation, I did the following:
    * Mounted a new external HD (LaCie) (my second one)
    * Backed-up all personal files / folders to the new drive
    * Ran Software Update to check for any recent updates - updated iTunes (6.0.3) + an iPod update
    * Ran Disk Utility to repair permissions (which I do whenever I've installed or deteted software) -- Have never had any issues, but this is where my problem started.
    Repair permissions hangs at the end (status bar to the very end), and it appears to be working on permissions related to iTunes (sorry, will have to run Disk Utility again and follow-up with the specifics). I ran it twice with the same result.
    I saw other threads suggesting that the problem may be with the latest iTunes update (recommending moving the iTunes application folder to the desktop and rerunning Disk Utility), but it seems specific to 10.3. Could this be an issue with 10.2.8 as well. If I can successfully complete repairs to permissions (with the above workaround), can I proceed with the 10.4 upgrade, and if so, what should I do with the iTunes application folder (keep it on the desktop, or move it back)?
    Thanks

    Cornelius ... thanks for the follow-up. I went ahead and tried both methods, although I should note that I didn't show the iTunes.pkg or iTunesPhoneDrive.pkg files in the Library>Receipts folder as described in the two approaches. I had no luck at all with Kappy's solution (I moved the one file I did have -- iTunesX.pkg -- and Disk Utility stalled as before). I moved iTunes.pkg back to its original folder, and tried the first method you described. I moved the iTunes app to my desktop, and I was able to successfully repair permissions. I trashed two files (iTunes3.pkg and iTunes4.pkg) and left the iTunesX.pkg file as instructed (again, I don't show the iTunesPhoneDriver.pkg file at all). I reran Disk Utility with the same faulty result.
    I suspect it may have something to do with the missing files. Any thoughts on that?
    Thanks again.
    Max:
    Sorry I misunderstood you. Actually you don't move
    your iTunes folder at all. Here are a couple of
    procedures. Since I have not had to use it I can't
    vouch for either, but I have heard both have worked
    for others.Just to catalogue the
    solutions listed above
    Here's what I did, and it worked fine.
    1) Move iTunes onto the Desktop.
    2) Run Disk Utility
    3) Go to HD>Library>Receipts and trash all iTunes
    .pkg files EXCEPT for iTunesX.pkg and
    iTunesPhoneDriver.pkg
    4) empty Trash.
    5) move iTune from Desktop back to 'Applications'.
    Hey presto. you should now be able to repair
    permissions again.
    HTH
    Kappy’s solution
    1. Navigate to the /Library/Receipts/ folder.
    2. Locate the iTunes.pkg and iTunesX.pkg files and
    move them to the Desktop.
    3. Run Disk Utility and repair permissions.
    4. Move the .pkg files back into the
    /Library/Receipts/ folder.Note that you
    are not moving the iTunes folder, but the .pkg files
    from the Receipts folder. In the first method you
    Trash some of them, in the second you move them back.
    But you don't touch the iTunes application as such.
    Good luck.

  • Problems upgrading from 10.2.8 to 10.3 Please help

    Hi, first time here. I'm trying to upgrade from osx 10.2.8 to 3.0 Panther, but each time i try to upgrade or archive and install my mac freezes and the log says that newer versions of iMovie iCal iPhoto & isync packages are already installed as i downloaded them previously. Is there any way round this to upgrade to 3.0 without losing any files or having to erase and install? I'm quite new to Macs as well so please keep it quite simple.
    Thank you

    Dan:
    You can use Pacifist to uninstall the already updated item that is preventing the upgrade. Then you follow the process below.
    Here are some suggestions on installation:
    Panther: Archive and Install
    If you do not have your original install disks or a Full Retail Version you can get one at AppleRescue or on eBay relatively inexpensively.
    If you have the right disks here is what you do.
    1. Warning: Although we will use Archive and Install there is always a risk something can go wrong. As a precaution back up your User Folder and any apps you can't afford to lose.
    2. Check to see if you have the latest Firmware Update. (Post back if you can't locate the appropriate update for your computer) Note: You must be in OS 9 to update firmware.
    3. Boot from the install disk holding down the C key.
    4. Once booted go to the Installer Menu and open Disk Utility.
    To do a clean install see Notes below
    5. Run Repair Disk. If there are problems, run it until no problems are reported. If it reports that it can't repair the problems you might need TechTool Pro or Disk Warrior.
    6. While still in Disk Utility run Repair Permissions.
    7. Quit Disk Utility and open the Installer.
    8. Choose the option to Archive and Install. This saves your data in a Previous Systems folder, which you can retrieve after installation.
    9. You might want to Customize and deselect Foreign Language Translations and Additional Printer Drivers to save Hard Drive space.
    10. Proceed with installation.
    11. After installation is complete computer will restart. Follow prompts and set up computer.
    12. Open Disk Utility (Applications > Utilities > Disk Utility) and Repair Permissions.
    13. Go online and download updates, or go to Software Update under the Apple Menu and update your OS.
    14. Transfer your User Folder from Previous Systems folder.
    NOTE (below):
    To do a clean install:
    Follow steps 1 through 4 above.
    a. In Disk Utility select your HD in left panel and Erase in main panel.
    b. Be sure Volume Format is Mac OS Extended and the checkbox Mac OS 9 Drivers Installed is checked.
    c. Select Options at bottom left in Erase panel. WARNING! This procedure will erase the contents of your entire HDD. Be sure you back up anything you cannot afford to lose!
    Select option to zero all data. Click OK. Click Erase.
    This process will take a while, so this is a good time to take a long walk or call your mother
    d. After HDD is erased resume at No. 7 above.
    Post back with any questions or comments.
    Good luck.

  • Is it really possible to upgrade from a Treo 650 to a Treo 750?

    I am not a very happy customer at the moment, but any help would be greatly appreciated. I upgraded from my old Palm Tungsten to a Zire, then to a Cingular Treo 650, combining three devices into one. I have since discovered that the Treo 650 seems to have a faulty transmission mode, as I can rarely be clearly understood by whomever I call. Am on the second (or third, I have lost track) and continue to have the same problem. I get five bars of reception but can't be understood on the other end. A bit of a problem when one is trying to call 911. Am constantly told I am "breaking up". The repair shop says it "Can't duplicate the problem". OK, then I do not want to give up all the info I have stored in the fool thing, and the 750 seems to have a different system, so I thought I would try that. All the stuff I could find seemed to indicate it wouldn't be a problem to upgrade. When the 750 arrived, I tried to install the software from the CD on my Windows XP computer. No dice. Setup encounters an error and closes. Can't even look at the files, because setup tries to run any time I access the CD. From any drive.  Gave it to my girlfiend to check on her computer, and the CD seemed to run fine. Other CDs work just fine on my computer. Must be some kind of conflict, but what? Tried calling the AT&T number that suggested they could help with setup, and was first connected to the business center, they routed me to the laptop center, who routed me to the network center, who said they would have to bring in the Palm customer service and connected me to a Mac guy that dumped me back to a menu that took me to someone for whom English is a second language with whom I was trying to communicate over a very poor satellite connection. They made no sense anyway. telling me first that I couldn't have two desktops running (wrong, my girlfriend has my old Zire and the CD worked fine) and then insisting that the serial number on my device had to start with a P, when it clearly does not have any alpha characters in it. Gave up on that route of assistance. Managed to get the new ActiveSync installed from my girlfriends computer over the network. Great. Now let's get my 650 synced with Outlook (which I have not used at home) and see if we can move on. Nope. First I have to update Outlook 2000 from the old Win98 to my current XP. Find the old CD, and square that away. OK, now sync to Outlook. Nope. The sync program gives an error, saying it will only sync with Outlook 98, 2000, and XP(2002). Good grief. I have Outlook 2000, and the software apparently does not recognize it. If the Palm doesn't work, there is no reason for me to keep this phone, and I am very close to returning it and abandoning the Palm entirely when I upgrade to something that works, although I dread re-entering all that information.

    Thanks for the feedback. Today I installed an Enterprise version of Office 2007 I purchased a while back, but had not yet installed. Microsoft presented a few challenges, but they were quickly resolved. I then downloaded the appropriate conduit from Palm, and synced the 650 with the handheld overwriting the computer. Then used Active Destop to sync the 750. Satisfied I had moved as much info as possible, I called AT&T and had them move the phone number to the new Treo.
    Bonus! When the guy at AT&T called me on the new phone to verify it, he said it sounded better than my landline.
    Sorry for the streaming paragraph. When it is late I tend to write like I think.

  • I upgraded from iPhone 3GS to iPhone 6.  Everything converted fine until I deleted an app in error.  When I downloaded it from iTunes, my account is no longer recognized by the app's host servers.  Can I go back and re-sync one app from my old phone?

    I upgraded from iPhone 3GS to iPhone 6.  Everything converted fine.  Yesterday I deleted an app in error.  When I downloaded the software it from iTunes ( did this many times on the old 3GS), my account is no longer recognized by the app's host servers (Playtika), even though it did after the initial conversion.  Can I go back and re-sync just one app from my old phone?  

    Try deleting what is called the iPod Photo Cache.

  • Can't print from IE 8 after upgrading from Vista to Windows 7

    My laptop (HP Elitebook 8530w) uses two HP printers: Color LaserJet CP3525x (at work) and Deskjet 6940 (at home). Both printers are accessed across a local network.
    I recently upgraded from Vista Enterprise to Windows 7 Enterprise.
    Everything still prints fine (from Word, Adobe Reader, Windows Photo Viewer, etc.), except for IE 8! When I try to print a web page from IE, it prints only the page header, and otherwise the sheet is empty. This symptom occurs on both printers. (And of course this worked fine before the upgrade.)
    Any ideas? Thanks for any help.

    If anyone else is having this problem, I found the solution on another forum (http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/InternetExplorer/thread/920588e5-ccc4-4e24-83d6-606...).
    Specifically, the following steps solved the problem:
    1. If it doesn't already exist, create a directory named "Low" in your directory "C:\Users\<your_user_name>\AppData\Local\Temp\".
    2. From a command prompt, issue this command:  ICACLS C:\Users\<your_user_name>\AppData\Local\Temp\Low /setintegritylevel (OI)(CI)low

  • Fields in read-only mode for BP transaction in upgrade from 4.72 to ECC6.0

    Hello,
    This is regarding the query for BP transaction in upgrade from 4.72 to ECC 6.0.
    While creating BP / Changing BP system is disabling the fields in compnay code & sales area option. There is a SAP not provided 907860; and specified that the proplem is because of the delta customizing.
    All the customization settings are as per the note. And the Synchronization Control is also activated. But still the fields are disabled only.
    I have checked the field settings also in Cross-Application-Components & Logistic-Genral.
    But these are not working for compnay code & sales area data.
    please let me know if anyone has faced this type of problem / found any solution on this.
    Best Regards,
    Shubhada

    SAP IMG  -> Cross Application Components -> Master Data Synchronization &#61664; Synchronization Control -> Synchronization Control -> Activate Synchronization options
    This setting allows you to activate synchronization of BP with R/3. Not maintaining the values may result in certain fields being read-only in BP.
    Suggested Values:
    Source Object: BP | Target Object: CUSTOMER | Active Indicator : X
    Source Object: BP | Target Object: VENDOR | Active Indicator : X
    Source Object: CUSTOMER | Target Object: BP | Active Indicator : X
    Source Object: VENDOR | Target Object: BP | Active Indicator : X
    Have you set all of the above settings??

  • Slow table creation after upgrade from 10.2.0.3 to 11.2.0.1 using DBUA

    I've recently completed a database upgrade from 10.2.0.3 to 11.2.0.1 using the DBUA.
    I've since encountered a slowdown when running a script which drops and recreates a series of ~250 tables. The script normally runs in around 19 seconds. After the upgrade, the script requires ~2 minutes to run.
    By chance has anyone encountered something similar?
    The problem may be related to the behavior of an "after CREATE on schema" trigger which grants select privileges to a role through the use of a dbms_job call; between 10g and the database that was upgraded from 10G to 11g. Currently researching this angle.
    I will be using the following table creation DDL for this abbreviated test case:
    create table ALLIANCE  (
       ALLIANCEID           NUMBER(10)                      not null,
       NAME                 VARCHAR2(40)                    not null,
       CREATION_DATE        DATE,
       constraint PK_ALLIANCE primary key (ALLIANCEID)
               using index
           tablespace LIVE_INDEX
    tablespace LIVE_DATA;When calling the above DDL, an "after CREATE on schema" trigger is fired which schedules a job to immediately run to grant select privilege to a role for the table which was just created:
    create or replace
    trigger select_grant
    after CREATE on schema
    declare
        l_str varchar2(255);
        l_job number;
    begin
        if ( ora_dict_obj_type = 'TABLE' ) then
            l_str := 'execute immediate "grant select on ' ||
                                         ora_dict_obj_name ||
                                        ' to select_role";';
            dbms_job.submit( l_job, replace(l_str,'"','''') );
        end if;
    end;
    {code}
    Below I've included data on two separate test runs.  The first is on the upgraded database and includes optimizer parameters and an abbreviated TKPROF.  I've also, included the offending sys generate SQL which is not issued when the same test is run on a 10g environment that has been set up with a similar test case.  The 10g test run's TKPROF is also included below.
    The version of the database is 11.2.0.1.
    These are the parameters relevant to the optimizer for the test run on the upgraded 11g SID:

    So while this certainly isn't the most elegant of solutions, and most assuredly isn't in the realm of supported by Oracle...
    I've used the DBMS_IJOB.DROP_USER_JOBS('username'); package to remove the 194558 orphaned job entries from the job$ table. Don't ask, I've no clue how they all got there; but I've prepared some evil looks to unleash upon certain developers tomorrow morning.
    Not being able to reorganize the JOB$ table to free the now wasted ~67MB of space I've opted to create a new index on the JOB$ table to sidestep the full table scan.
    CREATE INDEX SYS.JOB_F1_THIS_NEXT ON SYS.JOB$ (FIELD1, THIS_DATE, NEXT_DATE) TABLESPACE SYSTEM;The next option would be to try to find a way to grant the select privilege to the role without using the aforementioned "after CREATE on schema" trigger and dbms_job call. This method was adopted to cover situations in which a developer manually added a table directly to the database rather than using the provided scripts to recreate their test environment.
    I assume that the following quote from the 11gR2 documentation is mistaken, and there is no such beast as "create or replace table" in 11g:
    http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E11882_01/server.112/e10592/statements_9003.htm#i2061306
    "Dropping a table invalidates dependent objects and removes object privileges on the table. If you want to re-create the table, then you must regrant object privileges on the table, re-create the indexes, integrity constraints, and triggers for the table, and respecify its storage parameters. Truncating and replacing have none of these effects. Therefore, removing rows with the TRUNCATE statement or replacing the table with a *CREATE OR REPLACE TABLE* statement can be more efficient than dropping and re-creating a table."

  • Since upgrade from Exchange 2007 to Exchange 2013 the conversations in Outlook do not group by subject

    Hi Microsoft,
    Since we have upgraded from Exchange 2007 to 2013 users complain their conversations in Outlook are no longer grouped based on the subject of an e-mail. I looks like Outlook uses other message properties for grouping e-mails in a conversation.
    I have investigated all the forum topics and see that with exchange 2010 there is support added for the use of conversation-ID's. However the functionality to automatically group e-mails with the same subject in one conversation in Outlook is gone!
    I would like to know if there is a fix to implement so that some our users get this functionality back. For Example: Let the exchange server not generate conversation-ID's and message-ID's for certain users.
    Your help is greatly appreciated!

    Totally correct!
    If you don't plan to maintain Outlook then you plan to fail :(
