Best way to report on multiple libraries

SharePoint 2010.
We have 1,600 subsites all the same forms library, which has 10-15 content types in:
All the content types have these fields that are published to the library. All the fields are the same.   Each file has unique naming conversation, based on the site, etc.
Each document goes through a workflow lifecyle.   Pending , Approved, Rejected.
If I wanted some form of Reporting based on all the docs, in all the sub sites... What is the best way to approach this.
I've seen the posted on a single list....   but this requirement is 1,600 libraries...

Hi Peter,
You don't say what type of reporting that you want to do? I'm assuming that it is probably something like displaying the last 1000 most recently approved forms or similar?
If that's the case then you may be able to achieve what you need using the Search Core Results Web Part with some clever querying and is likely to be the most performant method.
Once you have a result set back, you can then look at styling this using XSLT in the SCRWP or alternatively look at using the Search Query Model from code in a farm solution/webpart.
Alternatively you could look at using SSIS to extract the data using the SharePoint List into a SQL table on a nightly basis. (This article covers how to get data out of SharePoint and into SSIS..

In Acrobat Professional 8, what is the best way to insert/combine multiple pdf's together in a large

In Acrobat Professional 8, what is the best way to insert/combine multiple pdf's together in a large volume?
We have 300 pdf reports and need to insert a 2 page cover page infront of each report. Not sure if Batch processing is best???
Thanks for any tips.

Probably each cover page is different too. I would probably just bite the bullet and do each individually. I would create the 2 cover pages in WORD or other word processor and print to cover.pdf. Then open a PDF and Pages>Insert Pages or the cover.pdf to the front of the open PDF and save as to the current PDF. Then repeat 299 times. Each time you would make the appropriate change to the DOC file and print a new cover.pdf file (you might want to turn off open in Acrobat for this processing in the printer properties to save time). Probably a good idea to keep a list of the files to check off what has been done (you can generate a list in DOS by Start>cmd, change the directory to your location [cd path], and do "dir >>list.txt". That will give you a list to use.). There may be an easier way, but by the time you get it figured out you might be done this way.

Best way to fade out multiple tracks at the same level

Is there a best way to fade out multiple tracks at the end of a song? I have read the manual and understand fading "A" track, but not if my song is ending and I want to fade out all tracks equally.
I thought I could export the file as a wav or MP3 (like I would do if I was fading out an Apple loop), then bring it back in and fade the track I import it to, but wanted to know if anyone else had any tips or tricks they use.
Thanks

Best way to manage photos, multiple computers, multiple input mediums

I have a multitude of questions regarding photo library. I have a bit of a mess on my hands.
i have 30K photos on one computer at home (24'imac) and my husband and I both have laptops (macbook pro). I have his "hand me downs". When we switched to the 24"imac (from the small imac), I noticed later (I was not here at home for several months) that it seemed that pictures from my canon library from several years ago seemed to be missing. The person who did the changeover (of course) pleaded ignorance and I believe didn't do a proper backup. In fact I have noticed pictures on my husband's or my laptop, I don't see on our "now" primary machine. I reloaded any CD's i had, however, now i have multitude of picture copies as the "CD created" copy now has another name with a completely different date and year! Further, my husband would take his computer with him on vacation and download photos and sometimes i am not sure all the photos made it to the main computer! So i have these separate libraries on separate computers!
One of my projects in the upcoming year is to consolidate all these libraries so I ensure i have one final version and then set out to reduce, edit these photos, make slide shows, etc with them instead of holding all or most photos on each! It was a learning experience for me as i recently made my first book and found out that i used only 30% of the photos (of 1500 photos) so i think i really need to do a much better editing job to effectively reduce the number of photos. I would also like to even scan my current paper photos, slides, negatives into this, hence creating a large library, slide show, books, etc. In fact I would like to eliminate most of my photo albums!
My thought is that i need to
1) consolidate all libraries from all computers into one library on one hard disk
2) divide libraries by year
3) OBVIOUSLY---backup the library(s)
4) reload or keep on the 1TB hard drive all the photos
5) create an additional backup
I hope this makes sense. I am just not sure how to go about it. Given all I have read about error messages and libraries gone missing, I am concerned about the process I use to do this. Thanks!

The best way is create one Library from several is to use iPhoto Library Manager and its' merge command.
Why do you want to have multiple Libraries? iPhoto is good for 250,000 in a Library.
However, if you do want toL Managing Multiple Libraries - including moving pics/albums/rolls and metadata between them - is greatly facilitated by using iPhoto Library Manager
As for scanning? WHat software comes with your Scanner? I have had perfectly acceptable results with Image Capture.
I am concerned given all that i have read about "missing" iphoto libraries and errors.
I'm not sure what you mean by this, but it is important to have a back up as protection against problems.

Best way to organize/implement multiple ESB services

Hi,
I am now thinking about the best way to organize and implement ESB services/flows in JDeveloper. The notions of ESB system and groups are clear to me, but this is more an classification on the server.
As far as I can discover, you can make an ESB project in Jdeveloper that contains a single diagram and deployment plan. When I look at the tutorials I always see examples that consist of a canonical flow consisting of one entry point with possible multiple exit points. For example a payment service to handle different types of payments.
I can imagine that you have different kinds of canonical esb flows in your enterprise. What is the best way to implement these flows? I prefer to keep them all in one project with a single build/deployment plan. In this way, I am not left with many esb projects for all the different flows. But, is this wise? I am also thinking to separate the flows in different projects on system or group level?
What is your opinion?
Regards,
-Tom

Hi Chris,
What I have seen in a project for one of out customers is that a single ESB is used that routes and transforms messages to a specific end-point. Colleques implemented a synchronous and asynchronous variant.
However, in my opinion you should limit the use of an ESB to the minimal. Only use an ESB when you want to hide routing rules (different payment-services) and transformation. If you don't need routing or transformation, I would prefer direct call to a service.
You mentioned that you also used the ant extension to deploy esb projects. I have problems with using the extension. Please can you look at this thread:
Dealing with changing service wsdl locations in the ESB
Maybe you can help me out!

What's the best way to load balance multiple protocols on one vserver?

Hi,
We have a CSM blade on a 6513, in bridge mode. I'm just wondering what is the best way to serve HTTP and HTTPS (or any two or more ports) from the same group of servers. As I see it, we have two options:
1. Don't set a port on the vserver, so it is load balancing "any" or "tcp". This is easy but I want to be sure there isn't a downside to this, other than the obvious security issue.
2. Create multiple vservers and point them at the same serverfarm. I tried this and I got some odd results with the health checks.
Any ideas? Thanks a lot.

you listed the only 2 options available.
The advantage of solution #2 is that you can apply specific config for each protocol ie: for HTTP you can turn 'persistent rebalance' if needed.
If you want to use specific probes [not icmp], it is also a good practice to create a different serverfarm for each protocol.
Like this, if the HTTP service goes down but not the server, you can still have other protocols loadbalanced.

Gilles.

Best Way to Organize Related Multiple Contacts

What's the Best Way to Organize Multiple Related Contacts?
It may be a Couple or a Family with common Address and Phone, but different names and birthdates.
    Then I try to put them all in one contact listing.
It may be a Large Business where you want to keep track of information about
a dozen different people's address, phone, depart, title, email etc. But It still
would be nice to be able to pull up one entry with all the business's information.
   At some point, it will be necessary, I suppose to split the info into multiple
   seperate contacts. When?
Is there a better way to do this?
Thanks, Jim Baranski

IMHO, not a good idea. Best to keep to one person, one card.

Separate cards for each person; one group (or smart group, which is a fancy name for a saved search) for the Large Business. It won't be quite the way you want it (there's no "one entry" with all the info), but it's close enough for rock'n'roll.

What is the best way to work on multiple songs in one long recording?

I often record the local open-mic nights and generally just leave logic recording the entire night so i end up with lots of songs/bands in one big recording.
What is the best way to work with such a recording? Is there a better way than just using the event marker when a new band plays?
Also once i get home id like to save each band to a separate project but i cant seem to find an easy way to do this?
Obviously each band needs a different mix hence needing separate projects? or am i missing a much better work method?
any help greatly appreciated!
many thanks

As for your second point, just do a "save as" new file name and cut and erase any unwanted audio from the arrange window (ie. the bits that aren't in the song you want separate). You can do this for as many songs as there are and create a different mix for each one no problem. You multiple select and drag all the regions to the beginning of the arrange window (make sure you do them at the same time so's they don't go out of synch. All the separate songs and mixes can be saved in the same project folder as the original audio files are stored in (the folder structure should be there already if you started a new logic project, so no need to change that.
I would think using markers so you know where each song begins during the show, and the above method after, would be a very good way of organizing things. You may want to stop actually recording between bands too though I expect you are already doing this.
Its really as easy as that. Sometimes things just are.

Best way to organize/use multiple Music folders

I have a situation where I want to keep all of my classical music separate from the rest of my music. I was wondering if anyone has a suggestion as to the best way to go about doing this. The way I have done it is this: I created a new user account on my computer, and while logged into that account, I import all of my classical music into iTunes. This creates a separate music folder in the new separate account. Then, in order to access that music from my primary account, I enabled myself to access that folder by giving myself permissions. Is this the best way to go about this? Is there a way to create separate iTunes music folders from within the same user account? If not, is the way that I am sharing the best way to go about it? Would it be better to copy the music folder (or drag it) to the public folder, or shared folder?
Thanks for the input in advance.

teedoff087,
I've used (and use) the smart playlist option for many things. I would use it in this case, but I have a ton of classical music and I don't want to fill my main music library list with so much classical music. I sometimes listen to music straight from the main music library, and then there is the problem of it playing a rock song and then a classical, etc. Also, it becomes much more difficult to navigate through my main library when there is so much more content in it. I know with the use of smart lists, you can really create well organized music sub libraries, and I do use this feature often. I use it in my non classical library, as well as my separate classical one. I create lists for the different composers, or the era, such as Baroque, Romantic, Classical, etc. Also, Sonatas, Concertos, etc, and even musical instrument. Anyway, I guess my point is that it is just easier to keep the classical music separate. I had all of my music integrated on my last computer, and was often frustrated by it.
Thanks for the suggestion though. Any other thoughts you might have on the topic would be welcome and appreciated.

What is the best way to set up multiple devices in the same household?

Our family has a bunch of devices (phones,pads,pods) all set up under the same appleID. The idea was to be able to share iTunes content among devices. The problem is that there is personalized data merging between devices (address book, apps, etc). Is there a way to set up multiple devices under the same account while maintaining their own identity so that Each user can have their own apps, addresses, etc without having to sift through everyone else's stuff?

Continue to share your iTunes ID, but use different IDs for other services such as FaceTime, iMessage and iCloud. (When you share the same iCloud account across multiple devices, any synced data is merged and the merged list appears on all devices sharing the account.)
To change the ID For:
iMessage, go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive (Receive At in iOS 5), tap the ID sign out, sign back in using the other ID.
FaceTime, do the same thing in Settings>FaceTime.
iCloud, you'll have to delete the account, create a new account with the other ID, and migrate your data to the new account. Before deleting the account, if you have any photos in photo stream that are not in your camera roll or backed up somewhere else save these to your camera roll or you will lose them. To do this, open the photo stream album in the thumbnail view, tap Edit, tap all the photos you want to save, tap Share, then tap Save to Camera Roll. Once this is done, go to Settings>iCloud, scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account. When prompted about what to do with the iCloud data, be sure to select Keep On [iDevice]. Next, set up a new iCloud account using a different Apple ID (if you don't have one, tap Get a Free Apple ID at the bottom). Then turn iCloud data syncing for contacts, etc. back to On, and when prompted about merging with iCloud, choose Merge. This will upload the data to the new account. Finally, to un-merge the data you will then have to go to icloud.com on your computer and sign into each iCloud account separately and manually delete the data you don't want in each account (such as deleting the other person's contacts from your account, and vice versa).

What is the best way to set up multiple Apple devices ?

Lime many of us here I have quite a few apple devices and I just wondered whet the best way to set them up with itunes / Apple
my Apple gear:
Mac mini 2.53 with Mountain Lion
Mac Mini 1.6 duo Snow Leopard
Iphone 5c (mine) running 8
Iphone 5c (wifes) running 8
iPad 2 (old) 64 GB running 8
iPad Mini 2 retina 32 GB running 7
g3 iMac (running Tiger) Juke box (semi retired ;-) now)
At the moment all devices (apart from new Mac mini 2 and the old G3) are set up under my Apple ID ... (1 Apple ID for all devices) ... obviously this has problems : my wife downloads an App it will appear on my phone; we have had to disable some of the messaging systems as at one point my wife was getting my messages et ... is there a better way to do this?

cosmiconion wrote:
one drawback of same Apple ID for store is that what she downloads will automatically appear on all devices
Do you mean the visibility of the purchase in the App Store (under purchases) or the installation of the app automatically on the other devices?
In the App Store on the device (under iOS 8 at least on the iPad, I couldn't get it to work on my iPhone 5 under iOS 8), you can hide purchases...just swipe it to the left in the Purchased list. You can then unhide the hidden purchase(s) if desired by using iTunes on the PC/Mac under your iTunes account.
Auto App updates (Automatic Downloads) can be controlled under: Settings/iTunes & App Store, scroll down to Automatic Downloads and disable those that you do not want.

Looking for best way to set up multiple iPhone accounts

I already have an iPhone. Planning on getting one for my wife. I need to know the best way to setup both phones on my computer. We have separate Windows accounts on our home computer. I currently have an iTunes account on my Windows user account with some apps and the music library - with some, but not a lot of purchased music.
We also both use separate Outlook accounts for Calendar, Contacts, etc.
Should I:
- Sync both phones on my iTunes account? I imagine that would allow us to share any purchased music and apps. If so, can I point her phone to sync to her Outlook account?
- Set up a new iTunes account on her Windows account? I would import my music into her library, but I would guess that she would not be able to share my purchased music or apps
- Do something else?
Please let me know the best approach. Thanks.

Keep your separate logins, itunes accounts, outlook, etc., you can still share itunes content, as permitted under the EUSLA.
Launch itunes under your WIFE"S computer login. Disable auto sync when an ipod/iphone is connected, under preferences(under the edit menu), in itunes. Log your WIFE out of her itunes account, log in using YOUR account details, connect YOUR phone, DO NOT SYNC. Go up to Store>Authorize This Computer. Then, File>Transfer Purchases. Once complete, EJECT YOUR phone. Log out of itunes, log your WIFE back in. Connect HER phone, select what content you want on HER phone, hit the sync button. She likewise can transfer purchases to your account, thus you both can share content. All updates to Apps must be done using the same account originally used to obtain them. Log in, update, log out.

Best way to work with multiple photograph angles?

We are going to be taking 360 degree view photography shots of certain objects and placing these objects on to different backgrounds so the shots will look something like this:
We expect to have about 20 shots of each object and about 5-10 objects per photoshop file. So basically these will be single images all taken at different angles in which we will also be clipping off the background and placing them on transparent layers so that they can be overlayed onto different backgrounds.
I'm wondering what would be the best way to streamline this process. We need to be able to pick the correct shot at the right angle to fit the perspective of the background, once we do we will only be using that one image and all of the angles will not need to be used.'
Does anyone have any suggestions? I've considered creating folders for each object and a different layer under each folder for each angle/shot, however I think that may be a bit tidious to find the right angle. I've also considered creating some kind of an animation so I can scroll through the timeline and the images change in order as if the object was actually spinning in a 3D/360 view like this: http://3dbin.com/public/zummarva but im not sure if that will work or if it would make the photoshop file very big. Ideally I would also like to keep the photoshop files as small as possible.
I'm not sure if it is possible to use photoshops 3D plugin so the images can be rotated as if it were a 3D object?
Thanks

Best way to iterate through multiple variables?

I need to iterate through three different variables (arrays), and was wondering what the best way to do this would be? I am more familiar with C than I am with LabVIEW at this point, but am getting up to speed on LabVIEW pretty quickly. Normally in C, I would just create three nested loops, but I am wondering if this is the best method in LabVIEW or not. I could use a state machine I think, which would give me some flexibility in re-arranging the order of iteration or adding or subtracting variables easier than working with nested loops I think...anyway, I'm open to suggestions.

Arrays are not "variables". can you be a bit more specific.

Why does the order matter? Rearranging in what way? If you do autoindexing, it will just iterate over all elements until it runs out of elements.
... And again, what do you mean by "variables"?
It would help if you could show us a VI containing some typical input data in controls (make current value default, save) and explain what kind of output you expect.
