Bulk downloads online - best method???

We are intending to build a bulk download system for one of our clients. The intention here is,
1) User would click download button
2) The system would go to the database picks millions of records and present in a .csv format so user can save it in his local desktop. This process would take about 20 minutes [after efficient tuning of sql procedures and tables].
I just want thoughts from you on the best way to present this to the user and what is the best way to implement this?
Any thoughts would be of great help!!!
Thanks...

There can be better deals online than at a store but it really depends on the phone. For example, if you purchase the Samsung Fascinate or the Droid 2 online, you still have to do a mail-in rebate on both devices which means that you have to pay the full 2 year contract pricing at first and then mail away for the rebate cards to get the $100 rebate back on both phones. There are other phones which have instant rebates online though which is why many assume purchasing online gives you the best deal. I did want to let you know, the NE2 discount is only for the Primary line, not ALL of the lines. So that means that only that line would get the extra $100 discount off of the 2 year contract pricing online.
Also, if you opt to change your plan, if you completely move away from the Connect Plan, you won't be able to go back to it as VZW no longer has these plans. You will be opting into at least a $29.99 data plan per smartphone. The other lines, the ones you don't want to upgrade right now, will still be capable of upgrade. Those are on a per line status and are not affected by price plan changes. They only disappear if they are used.

Downloading WD4A - Best method?? Having problems

I have downloaded via SDN and FTP. Each time, the file I download (either Part 1 or Part 2), does NOT match the byte count that is recommended? I've tried both file formats as well .tgz and .rar
For Part1, I consistently get 1,331,200 and for Part2, I am getting 1,316,038.
This is leading to a Load_Datasave issue when I try to extract, (file is broken)which leads to the 601 error b/c the directory/file doesn't exist when trying to install.
Any help would be appreciated.
Joe

I Have gotten past the download, but when I extract Part 1, it always ends with an error saying that load_datasave.tg is broken.
I have gotten this error with both, the RAR type and the TGZ type, using 7-zip to extract.

Best method for backing up macbook air?

Please tell me what would be the best method to back up my macbook air?

Yes, this i know, Since I have nearly 100 HD laying around, when I clone my system, its bootable, and the second HD becomes the defacto recovery
at the very worst, you can reload the OS online. But yes, youre correct, but Superduper is FREE, and CCC surely isnt.
as a "clone it all" option, Superduper is great for HD upgrading and emergency backup for laptop HD. Since laptops HD are prone to failure (not SSD as in the AIR), keeping a cloned backup is a great idea.
But yes, your right, ......I consider a second cloned HD a "recovery HD", ......but not in the sense you imply.......
An ERROR that both superduper and CCC make in a CLONE, however, is they write the BOOT FILES in a diff. location, so if you install the replacement HD after a crash, it will (not 1st time which is always slow) cause slightly slower startup from poweron.......in which case you have to reinstall the OS on the CLONE...........that IS if you care that much about a few extra seconds boot time on your replacement cloned HD.
But LION and MOUNTAIN LION systems *also* have "Network Recovery", which can download and install without a recovery volume.

Best Method To Upgrade Database From 8.0.5.2.6 to 9.2.0.5

I have the following:
Oracle 8 (8.0.5.2.6) Database running on a machine with Windows NT
And I want to accomplish the following:
Upgrade database to Oracle 9i (9.2.0.5) on a new machine running Windows Server 2003.
I am looking for advice on the best method to accomplish this considering that I am changing three variables: 1)the database version, 2)the operating system, and 3)the physical location of the database.
Thanks in advance for any advice anyone can provide.
Jason

It depends upon how you want to do the export and import. Whether a full database export or just the schema containing the data, etc. based on that you will have to create the 10g database and perform the import. Below are some relevant documents:

What is the best method for backing up photos in IPhoto?

I have over 10,000 photos in IPhoto and am looking for the best method for doing a backup (or an archive?). I'm now using ICloud and it appears it's just photo streaming and does not have storage capability. External hard drive, copying to a DVD, other suggestions?

Most Simple Back Up
Drag the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to another Disk. This will make a copy on that disk.
Slightly more complex:
Use an app that will do incremental back ups. This is a very good way to work. The first time you run the back up the app will make a complete copy of the Library. Thereafter it will update the back up with the changes you have made. That makes subsequent back ups much faster. Many of these apps also have scheduling capabilities: So set it up and it will do the back up automatically. Examples of such apps: Chronosync or DejaVu . But are many others. Search on MacUpdate
My Routine
My Library lives on my iMac. It’s Backed up to two external hard disks every day. These disks are permanently attached to the iMac. These back ups run automatically. One is done by Time Machine, one is a bootable back up done by SuperDuper
It’s also backed up to a portable hard disk when ever new photos are added. This hard disk lives in my car. For security, this disk is password protected.
I have a second off-site back up at a relative’s house across town. That’s updated every 3 or 4 months.
My Photos are backed up online. There are many options: Flickr, Picasa, SmugMug etc. However, check the terms of your account carefully. While most sites have free uploading, you will often find that these uploads are limited in terms of the file size or the bandwidth you can use per month. For access that allows you to upload full size pics with no restrictions you may need to pay.
Every couple of months I test the back ups to make sure they are working correctly. It’s very easy to mis-configure a back up application, and the only way to protect against that is to do a trial restore.

Best method to move "previous system-users" to the new user folder

I was doing an Archive and Install of a current 10.5.8 system because of problems with the "usr" folder showing in the root listing of the hd folders while booted from this same hd. I knew that wasn't a good sign.
Anyway, it failed saying that the previous Users could not be moved into the new OS's User folder and they would be placed in the "Previous System" folder.
I have updated the newly installed OS to the latest Apple updates.
Now I'm wondering what is the best method to get the User folders (with lots of data) from the Previous Users folder into the new Users folder so that all the data is recognized.
Thanks in advance!

Just drag contents of the previous Home folder to their respective locations in the new Home folder.
Do not simply drag the entire Home folder into the new /Users/ folder. Just the content of the old Home folder, i.e., Documents, Downloads, etc. The system may prevent you from replacing some folders, so you will need to move the contents of those folders.
Oh, and see this: How to get files from a previous home directory after Archive and Install.

Best method for dynamically populating PDF on the web?

Hi there,
I'm trying to find a web-based solution to populate text within an existing PDF with a person's name (using a name variable within the PDF body copy in several spots). I know that LiveCycle Designer is the best method for creating dynamic PDF's but since I'm on a Mac, LiveCycle Designer wasn't packaged with my CS5 Suite / Acrobat 9 and I'm not eager to run windows in parallel and pay for acrobat pro a second time just to have it on windows for the LiveCycle functionality...CS5 wasn't cheap ha.
So I'm trying to find out if there are alternative ways to achieve this without going down that road. I don't mind writing PHP or using some other programming language to set it up online, but I just seem to be finding many different methods coming up and cannot find the most straightforward solution.
Any help is greatly appreciated!

LiveCycle Designer won't do what you want. It requires server software: LiveCycle Forms will do the trick.
You can find information on it here: http://www.adobe.com/products/livecycle/forms/

Best method for controlling Office 365 updates

Were looking for the best method for updating Office 365. We will be testing prior to releasing the version to the rest of the company. We have a couple of methods we're contemplating but looking for any pros or cons for each. We are also
using SCCM 2012.
1. Run setup.exe setting the version and internal install source in an .xml file run as an SCCM package using distribution points as the install source.
2. Run click2runclient.exe with command lines setting the version and internal install source as an SCCM package using distribution points as the install source.
3 Set the version through group policy and turn on automatic updates and don't specify an install source.
Option 3 appears to be the most straight forward with the least administrative overhead. Would it be possible to revert back to an earlier version using this method?
I have read various articles but looking for any input as to what is working well or not working for others.

Hi,
I would like to share this
blog post with you, which provides an example how to implement a fully automated testing and deployment process of Office 365 updates. This deployment method provides you the ability to test updates before you approve them in my environment.
The process might look like:
Deploy Office 365 in your environment with Office Deployment Tool, configure the "Updates" element in the configuration.xml file so that updates are enabled and the "UpdatePath" attribute points to an internal source.
Download the latest Office 365 build into a different internal source, configure your test machine to pick up builds from it.
After testing the updates, copy the updates to the first internal source.
You should be able to integrate the process with SCCM to reduce your administrative effort.
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Ethan Hua

Which is best method to improve the performance

Hi,
I have one scnerio, to meet this requirement i have two methods
My requirement is to get the data from multiple tables, so i am developing a query based on joins and this query may give approx 80000 rows.
To meet this requirement i have two methods.
I have confusion which is the best method to improve the performance.
Method #1
for i in <query>
loop
end loop;
Here we are retriving row by row(80000 rows) from data base and applying our logic
Method #2
By using the BULKCOLLECT at a time we are getting all the rows(80000 rows) into plsql table.
then loop is based on plsql table
for i in 1..plsqltable.count
loop
end loop;
Here we are retriving row by row(80000 rows) from plsql table instead of going to data base.
Can any body please suggest which is the best to improve the performance

Using BULK COLLECT will give you better performance with a large data set because there will be reduced IO with this method versus the traditional CURSOR FOR LOOP. Database Admin's (DBAs) typically don't like BULK COLLECT because developers tend to forget to limit the number of rows returned by the BULK COLLECT operation so it could use up too much memory. Take a look at DEVELOPER: PL/SQL Practices On BULK COLLECT By Steven Feuerstein for some great tips on using BULK COLLECT. Another good Feuerstein article is: Bulk Processing with BULK COLLECT and FORALL.
As others have mentioned, you should have posted your question in the PL/SQL forum. ;)
Hope this helps,

XML in Oracle 9i (best method to return a xml file from a table query)

Hello.
What is the best method to query a table, or set of tables (that will return thousands of rows) using xml in oracle? (best performance)
I'm currently using DBMS_XMLGen, is there a better method ?

I think, if your talking about generating XML, that you should use XMLElement, XMLForest, etc. to create your XML.
Lets assume that you base is relational data, then maybe the following great example will give you an idea how to do it : Re: Generate XML Schema from oracle tables
As michaels pointed out (did you read the link/ URL given?), the general expectancy is that the packages will be less and less important. So also maintenance wise the XMLElement, etc way will be the best, also for the future, maintainable method.

What is the best method of backing up my digital files (catalog) in the Photoshop Elements Organizer

What is the best method or service for backing up my digital files (catalog) in the Organizer from Photoshop Elements 12. Since there no longer is the automatic Elements sync available I do not know what to choose. I have tried to back this up using my external drive, but I cannot find the digital images per se. I see the entire program but not the catalog of pictures. Also, I have a windows operating system and Adobe Revel offers no edit capabilities with this OS.

I'm in a similar situation including movies I've purchased from iTunes...
Here's my setup:
I have all my iTunes data (music, movies, etc.) as well as about 10 GB of photos stored on a nework storage device that uses RAID-5 with SATA disks. This is basically a little toaster-sized NAS machine with four hard drives in it (www.infrant.com). If one of these drives dies, I get alerted and can insert a new one without missing a beat since the data is stored redundantly across all drives. I can also just yank out any one of the four drives while the thing is running and my data is still safe (I tried this after I bought it as a test).
That's how I prevent problems with a single disk... Redundancy
Now onto "backups"...
Nightly, my little RAID toaster automatically backs itself up to an attached 250GB USB drive. However, these backups are only of my critical data... documents, photos and home movies... I don't bother backing up my "Hollywood" movies since I can live without them in a disaster.
... I actually don't permanently store anything I care about on a laptop or a desktop. It all goes on the NAS box (Network Sttached Storage) and then my other computers use it as a network drive. It's attached via Gigbait to my main computer and via wireless to most everything else.
My achilles heel is that I don't store anything outside of my house yet. If I was smart, I'd alternate two USB drives attached to my NAS box and always keep one of them somewhere else (Safe Deposit Box?).
...and that's just one way to do it.

2006 MacBook Pro died, best methods to transfer data to new MacBook Pro

So my Rev. A MacBook Pro 2.16Ghz intel core duo finally died, looks like something on the logic board. So I bought a brand new 2011 2.2Ghz MacBook Pro. I have purchase and On The Go 2.5 inch enclosure from OWC, it's a USB device. the old hard drive is now in the enclosure, and I'm awaiting delivery tomorrow, of the new MacBook Pro.
My question is, what would be the best method to transfer old files. I want to start fresh with library and system files, as well as email IMAP files. my main concern is applications.
Can I simply drag the actual app from the old app folder to the new app folder? Will it bring along with it preferences and settings? Or do I need all the .DMG files to install the app into the new MBP?
Apps like; Audiohub, Connect360, Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator, Premiere Pro. honestly there are so many more that I can't remember right now.
Thanks in advance.

You can attempt to manually move these files but if it doesn't work then just migrating the whole user and deleting the items you don't want might be the way to go.
Copy the following files from the old HD to their matching location on the new computer and then restart the computer before you launch any of these applications:
Safari: Users / Your User / Library / Safari
iCal: Users / Your User / Library / Calendars
Addressbook: Users / Your User / Application Support / Addressbook
iChat : Users / Your User / Library / Preferences / com.apple.ichat (there may be more than one of these files. copy them all over)
I don't use Skype so I don't know exactly where they store their files but checking in Users / Your User / Library / Skype would be a logical place to start. You can certainly ask in the Skype forum: http://forum.skype.com/
Adobe products tend to have bits and pieces scattered throughout. There may be a simple solution but I would suggest you inquire in the Adobe forums: http://forums.adobe.com/community/photoshop/photoshop_macintosh
Best of luck!
