Can I run a filemaker pro database in iCloud

can I run a filemaker database in icloud

Though its true you can host a Filemaker Pro database on iCloud, I did something which might be interesting or valuable to you.
I made a database with all file containers stored outside the database. The result is a lightweight database that links all images/pdf/etc to a path in the same context as the database is stored.
I used then Dropbox and I can access the database from multiple machines, though not edit/add information at the same time. Its even posible to open the database on your iOS device and see changes, etc, with the last stored database on Dropbox.
I know this wont work for anybody, but it did for my girlfriend who stores data at work, and later review it at home.

Indexing Filemaker Pro database with Spotlight?

...am I missing something or why can't Spotlight find ANY entries in my Filemaker Pro databases? I have set no exclusion for indexing.
All my Music, Movies, collections etc are catalogued in Filemaker but Spotlight can't find it. It lists everything else, iTunes songs,email attachments, words in documents and records and numbers in spreadsheets.
Thanks

I just stumbled upon a mdimporter for OpenOffice but I had to look inside the package.
app-package / contents / Library/Spotlight
OOoSpotlightImporter.mdimporter
I double-clicked and first time in 8 yrs using OS X, asked if I wanted to add to Spotlight Plug-in, so I said "yes."
Does an app (OpenOffice in this case) add its mdimporter to Spotlight the first time it launches? No.
There was none in /Library/Spotlight and I've never known about this, or the need to find and add to Spotlight. And this was only the 2nd application I've added that includes an importer (URL Manager is old but had one).
+(I would love to exclude url and bookmark(s unchecked) it still finds bookmark - Safari reads the bookmark.plist and writes them into ~/Library/Caches/Metadata/Safari/+
More custom prefs and features in the control panel.
Search inside the folder I am in, which seems obvious.
Ability to add a folder to the search index, or to update.
I would like Spotlight if it was half as good as Vista's (also has a much more robust open/save but those aren't enough reasons to use Vista.
Don't start indexing a drive that I just formatted and backing up to (ask first, and wait until I/O and system is "quiet").
Searching for tech notes on or a www.apple.com/support/spotlight or /leopard/spotlight didn't bring up anything but "features" but nothing useful.
Do I need a developer's manual to get more from Spotlight?
Path Finder search/find but it has a problem with preventing quitting and with shutdown/restart so I can't leave it in the background. It searches 'everywhere' so it can't just depend on Spotlight's indexes.... can it?

HT3053 Can I run my MacBook Pro Late 2008 without battery forever? Is it bad in long term or anything? Does it make the system less stable?

Can I run my MacBook Pro Late 2008 without battery forever? Is it bad in long term or anything? Does it make the system less stable?
My battery got swollen (and I unfortunately noticed it very late and might have be running with it for months, which potentially explains all the crashes everyday and the trackpad not working anymore, the Apple test also says I have a bar of ram broken...) and I had to remove it because the back pannel did not close anymore... Can I still use my MBP normally forever that way? I was planning on buying a new mac anyway but maybe waiting for the next iMac upgrade in the year... Should I wait?

Other than the system shutting down instantly if you have a power outage, whcih could corrupt the OS. Nothing else bad will happen.

Can I run Acrobat 9 Pro and X Pro, can't afford plugin upgrades

Can I run Acrobat 9 Pro and X Pro
Can't afford plugin upgrades from 9 to X

If you wish to run both the version on the same machine. It's not a supported configuration as Version 9 and X Pro share the same namespace and you may run into issues which would be hard to fix.
I would recomend to use single version. Let me know, if you need more information.

FYI..
A month ago, I called the tech support & the individual informed

Unable to get Database Connectivity vi to List Tables of a Filemaker Pro database

Hello Forum,
I've been successful using my ODBC Admin to create a System DSN for a simple Filemaker Pro db on my PC running Windows XP (I wish I could delete my previous post asking for help doing that!). Now, my LV program successfully "connects" to the db using the "DB Tools Open Connection vi". However, I cannot get the "DB Tools List Tables" vi to give me a list of the database's tables. LV just returns an empty string array. However, I can accomplish other tasks such as listing the columns of a table using the "DB Tools List Columns" vi.
Any thoughts on why I cannot list the db's tables??

Hi NI,
I am still getting a empty string array result when I use "DB Tools List Tables" vi. I am running Filemaker Pro 10.0v1 and LabVIEW 8.2. I can get other DB VIs to work just fine, namely: "DB Tools List Columns", "DB Tools Insert Data", "DB Tools Execute Query" and "DB Tools Fetch Recordset Data". I can obviously work around not having the "List Tables" code, but it makes me wonder where I'm going wrong.

Link to Filemaker pro database from wiki fails

Has anyone tried to create a link from within a wiki page that can launch a filemaker pro 9 database residing on the Xserve? I'm able to create the link in the edit page but when I click to save, the underlining disappears and the link is no more. I'm able to link to web-sites on the WWW and within other wiki pages but not to the fmnet:/XXX.XX.XXX.XX/HOME prompt. Thanks

As I read this, you want to go from a web server using http protocol to a database server using its own protocol. You could use a redirect to take a link like http://domain.com/groups/fmpro to fmnet://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/HOME assuming the fmnet link is the link provided in the Menu/Send Link action of FM Pro.

Can bootcamp run Windows 8 Pro in OSX 10.8.2?

Can Mac OSX Mountain Lion (10.8.2) run "Windows 8 Pro" in Bootcamp? Since Windows 8 Pro has the ability to run program from passed versions of Windows. This way Windows 8 Pro can run Bootcamp, even though it was made for Windows XP/Vista/7 specificly.
I need to know whether it can damage my MAC, or I am able to install Windows 8 Pro.
Thanks guys.

Windows 8 is not supported by Bootcamp. There are no Bootcamp Windows 8 drivers http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1899

Can't run Acrobat XI Pro

I recently installed Creative Cloud, and everything worked fine, except...
When I try to run Acrobat XI Pro I get a dialog which says "Adobe Software Licensing Agreement", but is completely blank, except for Quit/Accept buttons which don't react when clicked.
I saw the solution here:
http://forums.adobe.com/message/4812393#4812393
But when I uninstalled Acrobat and tried to reinstall through the Application Manager, it said Acrobat's already installed.
Help?!
For info: I'm running a MBAir, latest OX 10.8.2 and I'm in Australia.

This is a known issue with Acrobat XI on MAC.
Problem: Mac OS only. On launch, a blank EULA screen appears, which cannot be accepted, and Acrobat does not run. This problem can appear if you have any products installed from CCM or from Creative Suite, and you tried installing Acrobat XI from a different source.
Workaround: Launch any other product which is part of the CCM or Creative suite. Then, deactivate it by choosing Help > Deactivate. Quit the application. Then, launch Acrobat and accept the EULA. Then, for the CCM subscription product, launch it and select License This Software to enable the CCM product again.

I'm running OS X, but I can't run Final Cut Pro 1.0 and appropriate upgrade

I recently purchased a Macbook with OS 10.4.6 on it. I have Final Cut Pro 3, but I can only install it via FCP1 and upgrade to FCP2 and finally to FCP3. However, when I try to install 1.0, it says that this system cannot support it. I can't seem to figure out how to run Classic mode either.
So, my question is, what are my options to run this software? (I really do not want to purchase the newest software.) Also, I know someone who has FCP3 full version (not an upgrade); would it be possible to install this software and use one of the serial numbers from one of my other software disks? Any help would be great.
Thanks!

FCE is more limited but depending on your needs it might be fine
check out http://www.apple.com/finalcut
why do you feel you need to download an upgrade
after FCP 4 (3-4 years ago) you no longer needed an older version installed just the serial number as they discovered the problem that you are running into now

Can you run logic 6 pro and logic 7 on the same PPC?

I was wondering if you could run logic 6 and logic 7 on the same computer.

Until I moved up to my overqualified quad G5, I would use Logic 7 and 6 under 10.3 and I used to run the old 6 under OS9 on occasions where I needed to use a couple of plugins that didn't seem to make the port from VST to AU. It seemed that everytime you updated 6, it created a new version and you were able to keep older versions if you liked ( and I did ) for whatever reason...my thinking was that if the newer upgrade didn't work, I could always go back a step. This is no longer an option though, is it! Progress?

Can I run sony Vegas pro 8.0 on a macbook or macbook pro?

I'm thinking about buying my first mac book, but I need to know if I can run sony. I have read things about the bootcamp program, but I don't understand fully. I use Sony to edit videos, amvs, mmv, meps, ect. Can I use sony on a mac without getting any viruses?
I recently bought a laptop, but it ended up being a lemon. Ive had to take it back to best buy over 5 times now for issues. Which is why I'm looking for a new laptop.
I know Sony is a program normally ran on windows, so will running it on the macbook make it open to viruses?
I want the mac to stay away from viruses, ect.
I use kapersky anti virus right now. Is it recommended to put a virus protection on the mac?
Does anyone use Sony on their macbook and have any advice for me?
I'd love any advice you can offer me!
Please help!
Thank you all very much!

The Sony Vegas application will more than likely run on a Mac under BootCamp. When you're running windows on a Mac that partition is as prone to virus as any other windows machine. If you're going to run windows you should definately run virus protection on the windows partition. Virus protection for the Mac partition is not necessary but there are a few free applications that some folks run just to be safe. Here's some info on BootCamp

Can I run Final Cut Pro on a Macbook?

Hello,
Can somebody tell me if it is possible to run FCP on the new Macbook 2.26GHz Intel Core 2 Duo laptops?
Are there any reported problems?
Thanks
Evanssent

It is possible but not recommended. The FCS specs are here.
http://www.apple.com/finalcutstudio/specs/
Color and Motion won't even open but using FCP has been done. It depends on what kind of footage you plan on using. If you want to do HD you will have problems. SD should be okay.
