Can business catalyst be used on external content

Good afternoon,
We use Business Catalyst for a few sites, and really find the metrics and site information useful. We have some content that we would like to keep on our own local servers, and we were wondering if there is a way we can set up business catalyst to be able to give us the same information on the content we host locally, or if it can only work for hosted content.
Thanks!

Create pages with only contain the information you want to see on your internal site (sort of like a widget), you wont need a header and footer, just the one thing you want. Pull that content from your internal site using AJAX. The only issue is that if you use multiple of these elements your stats will be times that many. For example if you create 10 pages with the elements you need each AJAX page request (on your local server) will pull 10 page requests. So if you know how many you have you'll have to divide your stats by that. If you don't care so much for the stats then no problems.

Can't connect to business catalyst server using dreamweaver

I can't connect to the business catalyst server using dreamweaver. It prompts incorrect username or password, but it's not though. I'm traying to import a templet from business catalyst to change the background to a personal image.
Can't find out how els to do it so I'm trying this.
Unless someone knows how els I can do that
Help appreciated

It prompts incorrect username or password, but it's not though.
This prompt itself means that your login credentials are wrong. Double, triple check the ID and password you're using to try to login to BC.
Try logging in from here: http://www.businesscatalyst.com/admin/Index.aspx to see if you're able to. If not, reset your password from here.

Using the External Content Type as a column lookup

Hi.
I am working on a solution that will get data from a web service (third party) and create a list in SharePoint Online (Office365 E3 subscription). The use a column from that list as a lookup column for another list. The reason for this is to allow updates
on the third party data source to update the list in Office 365.
Using SPD 2013, I created that external content type then created the list. However, due to the limitations on BCS (which I just learned after googling it) that the only thing I can use from this column is the ID column.
Has anyone found a work around on the matter? I was thinking of just creating a list app then load the bcs data to it. My problem will be how to update the list every so often.
Thanks!

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you want to use the External Content Type as a column lookup.
Per my knowleage, you can select all the columns in the external list.
You can create a lookup column in the list as below:
If you select Name, then you can get the Name column as below:
There is an article for your reference, although it is about the SharePoint 2010, it still works for SharePoint Online 2013.

G'day. I am using iMovie 11 and need to clear disk space. How can I do that using an external drive, leaving me the option to go back and make changes or access old events or projects from that external drive?

G'day. I am using iMovie 11 and need to clear disk space. How can I do that using an external drive, leaving me the option to go back and make changes or access old events or projects from that external drive?

The slightly bigger question is whether you want to move all movie content to the external drive (essentially meaning that drive will always need to be attached when you're working with your videos), or whether you just want to archive older videos off to the external drive.
If you want to move all videos, then just move the 'Movies' folder in your home directory to the external drive, then create an alias of the external 'Movies' back in to your home directory. Now the 'Movies' icon in your home directory will point to the external drive and everything will just work (as long as the external drive is attached when you launch iMovie)
If you want to archive older movies then each Movie should have its own subdirectory within your Movies folder. These can easily be moved off to the external drive, and moved back should you ever need to work on those movies again.

Can Business Catalyst host a sub-domain?

Can BC host a sub-domain? If so then we can make arrangements to update our domain DNS and point to that address.
Please advise whether BC can host sub-domains? We have a parent domain that we currently use for our marketing website although require a domain DNS to point to BC to make it live. Would a sub-domain be sufficient?

Thx for your quick reply ! It helps a lot !

I recently purchased an old iMac G3 Macintosh. I was wondering, is there a way where I can update it without using an external disc? I've seen the newer Apple products with the dock, if I update my iMac G3, will it have that, and if so, how can I do that?

I was wondering, is there a way where I can update it without using an external disc?
If you mean the iMac does not have an internal optical drive capable of reading DVDs, the only option requires another Mac with a DVD-capable drive and FireWire ports. Your iMac G3 will also require FireWire ports. Not all G3 iMacs have Firewire. FW started with the Summer 2000 models with 400mHz and faster processors.
With FireWire, you can use FireWire Target Disk mode to install from a retail OS install DVD in another Mac. If you supplemental info info tells us if you have another Mac with a DVD reader and the FW ports, we can walk you through the process.
If the iMac has a tray-loading drive, I'd forget it. They are very limited not only in the OS max (10.3.9) but also in RAM capability. Starting with the slot-loading iMac G3s, the max RAM increased to 1 GB (2 X 512MB modlules). Tiger likes 1GB RAM.
Understand that pre-Intel Macs are getting harder to use. Even with 10.4.11, your choice of browsers is limited (TenFourFox is the most viable option) and the G3s rudimentary video hardware means web browsing will be choppy at best.
If you are in the USA, you can try calling the Apple Store (1-800-MY-APPLE) for an OS disk. As recently as Jan 20, someone posted here that they were able to buy Tiger by calling. It was not clear whether the disks were replacement system install/restore disks or full retail install, but it's a free call.
When you do "About this Mac" to check teh OS verion, also look at the processor speed and tell us what that says. That can help with recommendations for an upgrade path.

Do I need to use Business Catalyst to use the built-in forms?

I use FTP voyager to host my website. I have a contact form on my website, when I fill out the form this dialog box appears: "This standard HTML form is configured to work with Adobe Business Catalyst". Once I click OK I then get the message the from has been sent and recieved, I check my email and I have not recieved an email.
Can somebody please tell me if there is something I need to do to overcome this issue, or do forms not work unless you are using Buinsess Catalyst?

Can Business Catalyst be run in Java?....

I am trying to use Business Catalyst in a java environment and can not get the API services reference that is demonstrated in the Visual Studio demonstration to hook up. Can I do it in Java and if so how do I get the reference connecteed in Java or make is work with the java environment.
Thank you,

Hey there.
First thing - BC does not run anywhere other then where Adobe run it, it is .NET based and can not run anywhere else. IT does not run JAva, PHP or any other server side language. You can not put any of that on your website.
In terms of the API you have some SOAP (Ecommerce and CRM) API and some REST API that you can use. IF your 3rd party server is a Java setup then you would use if there is a connection class or code your own for these types of API and code up what you need.

Can I install Tiger using an external DVD drive?

My PowerBook is being repaired and I have to use an older G4/733 tower (OS 9.2; CD/zip drives only) from 2001 ASAP. I purchased Tiger and now need to load it, along with the new software. Rather than purchasing an internal dvd drive, can I buy and external dvd drive to install Tiger/new software? I've seen some posts that say "no" and others that say yes, as long as its firewire, not USB. In looking at external drives, I've seen some compatibility requirements that say OS X as the minimum. Some places like CDW and the Apple store don't seem to have an answer for me. Does anybody here know? thanks!

Internal drives are much cheaper; you can get a DVD burner for under $40 online, vs. well over a $100 for an external, which may or may not boot your specific system.
The NEC ND-3550A or Pioneer DVR-110D will both boot the OS installer DVD when using the "C" Key, or from Startup Disc...
In a QS, you just have to remove the drive tray faceplate before installing the drive; This Apple Article has clear diagrams of the replacement process.

I am successfully doing API Product Updates, not tried Creates yet.
From the WSDL you need theses fields;
'supplierCommission' => 0,      // type="s:double"/>
'weight'             => 2,      // type="s:int"/>
'inventoryControl'   => false, // type="s:boolean"/>
'canPreOrder'        => false, // type="s:boolean"/> 'captureDetails'     => false, // type="s:boolean"/>
'isOnSale'           => true,   // type="s:boolean"/>
'hideIfNoStock'      => false, // type="s:boolean"/>
'isGiftVoucher'      => false, // type="s:boolean"/>
'enableDropShipping' => false, // type="s:boolean"/>
excludeFromSearch' => false, // type="s:boolean"/>
'cycletypeCount'     => -1,     // type="s:int"/>
+ the other arrays or the update wipes out data.
Experimentation seems to be the key

How can I make iMovie use my external HD for projects instead of my Internal HD?

I only have a 250GB internal HD and using iMovie can take up a lot of space. I moved all my movie files to an external HD, but when I start up iMovie none of them show up. I have to import them back which places it on my internal HD and I really don't have much space so I can't do anymore projects. Can anyone help me? I am using version 7.1.4 .

With version 7.1.4 of iMovie, you must keep your projects on the startup drive. However, the Events contain the large files, and can be moved to the external drive.
You must move the Events from within iMovie. Click VIEW/EVENTS BY VOLUME. This will show you alll your properly formatted drives that are available. (The external drive must be formatted as Mac OS Extended (journaled). Then, in the Event Library, you can drag and drop the small icons for the Events to the small icon for the drive in the Event Library List along the left side.
If you need to move Projects also, you should upgrade to iMovie 11. It is available in the Mac App Store for about $15.
Another note: In iMovie 7.1.4, you can move Events by dragging. However, in iMovie 8.06 (iMovie 09) and iMovie 9.0.4 (iMovie 11), drag and drop will copy. You have to hold down the Command Key while dragging to move rather than copy.

External content type error: Business Data Connectivity object not found.

Hello
I have to change the external database (external system) for an external content type. The database view on the new database is exactly the same as on the old database.
After changing the external system of the external content type, this happens:
When I try to add a new item to the list, I get this error under the external data field:
"Business Data Connectivity object not found. Administrators, see the server log for more information."
Also, when I try to update the external data field, it is not possible because the buttons are grey.
When I add a new external data field to the same list, I can use the external content type. For some reason the current external data field doesn't update.
Any ideas?
Any help would be much appreciated!

Have you implemented both ‘Read List’ & ‘Read Item’ operations in your ECT?
