Can I startup the Powerbook from an Iomega external CD burner?

Can I startup the Powerbook from an Iomega external CD burner? We no longer have the removable internal drive. The computer will not start up, and I need to start it up on a utility CD from an external drive, but I've been unsuccessful so far. The external drive is an Iomega CD-RW/DVD-ROM drive.
Thanks for any help.

If the external drive is an USB drive, you probably can't boot a Mac OS X disk from it; the only known exception is an USB 1.1 drive with the Tiger DVD on a clamshell iBook.

A FAT32 drive can't store files which are 4GB or larger. You need to reformat or repartition the drive to include an exFAT, NTFS, or Mac OS Extended volume, or use a different drive, or use a way other than an external drive to transfer it.

How to startup the database from pfile?

Hi guys.
hope all of you fine.
how to startup the database from pfile?
Thanks.

You can create pfile from spfile
SQL>create pfile='/tmp/pfile.ora' from spfile;
then
SQL>startup pfile='/tmp/pfile.ora';
You can edit pfile.ora file and startup your database with this newly changed database parameter using pfile
And you can define you're using pfile or spfile by issuing:

Hold down the Option key while you boot your Mac. Then, it should show you a selection of devices. Click your flash drive and it will boot from that.

The report can not retrieve the data from the DB

Dear all,
I am facing a problem is that i have ready designed reports in Crystal. While refreshing the report in Crystal, it gives an error that it can not retrive the information from the database. But, if i am using the application which the report is attached, it is giving me the results and showing the report in Crystal. Even, for testing if i add a new field, i have to run it from the application, but directly from the Crsytal Reports, it displays an error.
I hope you will help me in the issue.

Could you please provide more information:
What is the database? (Oracle, SQL Server, xml, etc.)
What type of connectivity? (ODBC, Native, OLE DB, etc)
Are application and Crystal Reports are running from the same machine?
What is the error message? Any error numbers?

If you just installed iCloud does that mean you updated the iOS that's running on your iPad? If so, you'll want to restore all the programs you have from the backup you hopefully made.
Refer to these articles for help.

If you don't want to use iCloud, simply don't activate it.
You can also download the programs again.
If you live in a country that supports re-downloading apps then you can re-download them. You can refer to this article for more help.

You have no choice but to lose your data back to the last backup you made.
Here's how to do the recovery. Note you may have to try to get into recovery mode more than once to succeed:

I'm sure next time, you'll be more vigilant about keeping current backups.

Once a movie is copied into iTunes, can I delete the file from the folder?

I've copied several movies into iTunes and then sync'd them onto my Apple TV.
My question is: Once I've copied a movie into iTunes, can I delete the movie from its original folder (e.g. the Movie folder) and still have the movie in my iTunes?
More specifically, does "dragging and dropping" the movie into iTunes make a new copy of the movie file so that I can delete the original file? And if I can delete the original file, should I?

Thanks. I'll check and see when I get home tonight. My guess is that that's the setting since my disk space has decreased a lot when I started copying things into iTunes.

How can I print the calendar from my iPad?

How can I print the calendar from my iPad/iPhone 4? I would like each month on a separate 8 1/2 x 11 sheet of paper. Thanks!

What print app do you have? I think that you need certain printing apps in order to print the iPad calendar. The print feature is not built into the app itself ...As far as I know.

First, go to iMovie/Preferences and enable the Advanced Tools.
Import the video clip into an iMovie Event. When you get ready to use it in an iMovie Project, select the clip in the Event and drag & drop it on top of a video or photo clip in the project at the place where you want it to begin. When the pop-up menu appears, choose Audio Only.
