Can I use part of the TC as a general external HD
My Mac Mini is out of HD space. Can I get a TC and use part of it for backups and part as an external HD for things I don't need to have on the Mini all the time?
It is better not to, as the TC has no means to backup data on the disk.. Time Machine cannot backup a network drive. Much better to get a USB and better still a FW hdd and plug it straight into the Mini.. and also good to upgrade the hdd in the mini...!!

Can I use part of the Time Capsule as external harddrive?
And how do I do that?
Thanks!You might consider this since you will need another drive anyway......
Place the extra files on the external hard drive and connect it to your Mac using USB or Firewire.
Then Time Machine will backup both the Mac and the external hard drive.....so you have backups of everything. -
I have a problem with Safari in IOS 8 on my iPad 3. The bookmarks take up a third of the screen and I can't seem to make the bookmarks disappear until I need them. The useful part of the screen is therefore very small. Any suggestions gratefully appreciated.
OK, it now sort of works. A couple of problems here:
After updating IOS, Safari iCloud was "automatically" switched off
Switching it on had no effect
resetting my iPad automatically switched off safari iCloud again
after switching it back on, it said "turning off safari data"
switched it off and on again, now it said : "turning on safari data" and the sync worked
On IOS 7 no problems
The bookmarks not being displayed was because after pressing the book icon, it defaulted to showing the history and I had to press "Back" to get to the other options -
Can I use parted magic to secure erase Apple SSD?
Recently, I have bought Apple SSD128GB (Toshiba HG3 serie) to upgrade my MBP 15" early 2011. It's a second hand drive of my friend so I want to do secure erase by using Parted Magic for improving the performance as factory reset. I have heard about Parted Magic that it will do secure erase by sending ATA command to drive's controller (If I'm not wrong) but some people mentioned OS X Lion has Trim support that needs not to do secure erase. Now I don't know which ones is correct answer and can I use Parted Magic to secure erase this drive. Please give me your ideas.
I don't know, but I doubt it can be done using Disk Utility. I suggest you consult the user manual for it or see if there is a Reset option in the onscreen menues. If you don't have a manual, then you will find one at http://support.apple.com/manuals.

HT4341 If I buy a mac in Canada can I use it in the UK?
It I buy a Mac in Canada can I use it in the UK?
For the most part, yes.
Your Mac will run on 100-240 Volts and 50-60 Hz so you will not need a voltage converter. But, you will need an AC adapter to fit the UK wall plug.
The UK does use channels 1-13 for Wi-Fi and Canada 1-11, so if you try to connect to a network that is using Channel 12 or 13, you will not be successful. -
System Image Restore Fails "No disk that can be used for recovering the system disk can be found"
Greetings
- Our critical server image backup Fails on one
server -
Two 2008 R2 servers. Both do a nightly "Windows Server Backup" of Bare Metal Recovery, System State, C:, System Reserved partition, to another storage hard drive on the same machine as the source. Active Directory is on the C: The much larger D: data
partition on each source hard drive is not included.
Test recovery by disconnecting 500G System drive, booting from 2008R2 Install DVD, recovering to a new 500G SATA hard drive.
Server A good.
Server B fails. It finds the backed-up image, & then we can select the date we want. As soon as the image restore is beginning and the timeline appears, it bombs with "The system image restore failed. No disk that can be used for recovering the system
disk can be found." There is a wordy Details message but none of it seems relevant (we are not using USB etc).
At some point after this, in one (or two?) of the scenarios below, (I forget exactly where) we also got :
"The system image restore failed. (0x80042403)"
The destination drive is Not "Excluded".
Used diskpart clean to remove volumes from destination drive. Recovery still errored.
Tried a second restore-to drive, same make/model Seagate ST3500418AS, fails.
Tried the earliest dated B image rather than the most recent, fail.
The Server B backups show as "Success" each night.
Copied image from B to the same storage drive on A where the A backup image is kept, and used the A hardware to attempt restore. Now only the latest backup date is available (as would occur normally if we had originally saved the backup to a network location).
Restore still fails. It looks like its to do with the image rather than with the hardware.
Tried unticking "automatically check and update disk error info", still fail.
Server A SRP 100MB C: 50.6GB on Seagate ST3500418AS 465.76GB Microsoft driver 6.1.7600.16385 write cache off
Server B SRP 100MB C: 102GB on Seagate ST3500418AS 465.76GB Microsoft driver 6.1.7600.16385 write cache off
Restore-to hard drive is also Seagate ST3500418AS.

"If your destination disk has a lower capacity than the source disk, you need to go into the disk manager and shrink each partition on the source disk before restoring." Doesnt apply here.
http://benchmarkreviews.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=439&Itemid=38&limit=1&limitstart=4
for 0x80042403 says "The solution is really quite simple: the destination drive is of a lower capacity than the image's source drive." I cant see that here.
Thank you so much.Hello,
1. While recovering the OS to the new Hard disk, please don't keep the original boot disk attached to the System. There is a Disk signature for each hard disk. The signature will collide if the original boot disk signature is assigned to the new disk.
You may attach the older disk after recovering the OS. If you want to recover data to the older disk then they should be attached as they were during backup.
2. Make sure that the new boot disk is attached as the First Boot disk in hardware (IDE/SATA port 0/master) and is the first disk in boot order priority.
3. In Windows Recovery Env (WinRE) check the Boot disk using: Cmd prompt -> Diskpart.exe -> Select Disk = System. This will show the disk where OS restore will be attempted. If the disk is different than the intended 2 TB disk then swap the disks in
correct order in the hardware.
4. Please make sure that the OS is always recovered to the System disk. (Due to an issue: BMR might recover the OS to some other disk if System disk is small in size. Here the OS won't boot. If you belive this is the case, then you should attach the
bigger sized disk as System disk and/or exclude other disks from recovery). Disk exclusion is provided in System Image Restore/Complete PC Restore UI/cmdline.
5. Make sure that Number and Size of disks during restore match the backup config. Apart from boot volumes, some other volumes are also considered critical if there are services/roles installed on them. These disks will be marked critical for recovery and
should be present with minimum size requirement.
6. Some other requirements are discussed in following newsgroup threads:

I have an itunes account in Euro. I received iTunes and AppStore Gift Cards in $US. How can I use these on the same iWhatever and keep together music/apps bought in the 2 currencies?
ThxBarbara Hunt wrote:
Would it be possible for me to download iTunes in Parallels and get the files into that and then onto my iPod?
Yes, you can download iTunes for Windows using Parallels. If planning on making purchases here and/or authorizing already purchased tracks (from your Mac iTunes library), you are permitted to authorize five (5) computers as per iTunes Store terms of use, regardless of computing platform. No need to create a separate new iTunes Store account.
However, judging from what you would like to do, your best bet would be to convert the WMAs to AAC/MP3 in iTunes-Windows (iTunes-Mac cannot import WMA files), and drag the files from the Parallels window to your desktop to add to the iTunes-Mac library. (as the iPod itself is currently linked to your iTunes-Mac library)
Hope this helps,

How can i use AME for the new OAF page.
Dear all,
I have developed a new OAF page and registered under Employee Self Service.
How can i use AME for the approval process.
Appreciate your ideas?
zamoraI will try to answer based on my experience of working with iProcurement and AME. It depends on how you want to make a call to AME , directly from OAF Page or from Workflow and your requirement. You didn't specify what you want to show the users on OAF Page and your business requirement.
Before calling AME Engine from the OAF page or workflow, I guess you did already setup AME Transaction Type and it's Approval Groups, Conditions, Action Types and Rules. Do some testing from AME Business Analyst Test Workbench. Please note that, AME provides lot of PL/SQL API's that you have to call from your programs (java or workflow pl/sql)
Let's look at the workflow and putting an OAF Page as notification.
As Sameer said, you have kick-off workflow process from PR of CO and with in the workflow function, you make a call to AME Engine API's with the AME Transaction ID. This transactionId belongs to the AME Transsaction Type that you setup. Based on the rules setup, AME Engine generates list of approvers/approver and stores them AME Tables for that transactionId. Then, it sends a notification to the approver.
In the workflow, where that notification is defined, in the message body you have to put an attribute(&XX_WF_FWK_RN) of type document/send. And this attribute will have the constant JSP:/OA_HTML/OA.jsp?OAFunc=XX_FUNC¶mId=-&DOCUMENT_ID-. This function is SSWA Jsp function that makes a web html call to your OAF Region.
If your requirement is to just show the list of approvers on the OAF Page, you may have to call AME API diectly passing your AME TrasnactionId with other parameters. Then AME generates list of approvers and stores them in AME tables with each approver status. You can pickup those approvers using VO and show them on OAF Page.
Hope this gives some idea. -
My wife and I each have an iPhone4 with separate Apple IDs. We are hopefully about to purchase the 4th gen iPad; can we use iCloud on the iPad with separate IDs on the iPhones?
We would like to have all our music, photos, etc. on the iPad - is it best to create a new combined Apple ID for the iPad and simply upload our music, photos, etc. via our laptop instead? Does this not then render the iCloud useless to us?And just in case you were wondering, installing one purchased copy on all the Macs you own is specifically called out as allowed in the Mac OS X Lion license.
If you do not want to download multiple times, just copy the Applications -> Install Lion app to a safe place BEFORE you do the first install. Then copy that copy to any Mac you own where you want to install Lion. -

I have purchased music, apps, or books with multiple Apple IDs. How can I get all of this content onto my iOS device?
First, you need to copy all of your purchased content so it is on the same Mac or PC with iTunes. This computer should be the one you sync your device with. For more information on how to move your content, see these articles:
Mac: iTunes for Mac: How to copy purchases between computers
PC: iTunes for Windows: How to copy purchases between computers
Next, authorize your computer to play content with each Apple ID in iTunes. Once your computer is authorized for all your content, it can be synced to your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.
Cheers,

How can I use some of the image i am working on to paint with? like if I wanted to give someone an extra eye in the forehead, ow could i then paint their own i in the forehead? I know there is a paint tool for that, i just can't find it ... :/
It sounds like you are talking about the cloning tool?
Tool looks like this:
Then when selected you can change the size of the brush and using Alt (windows) and Command (Mac) to select your region you want to copy then start to create you cloned image.
Hope this helps? -
After upgrading to firefox 8, I can't use many of the functions on my schools website like opening the textbook and sending emails. I spoke the school's tech. support & they informed me that my version of firefox was not compatible with their system. So, how do I install a previous version of firefox (firefox 6 to be exact)?
You can download Firefox 6.0.2 for Mac OS X 10.5 from ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/6.0.2/
Backup your '''Profiles''' folder before new installation.

Is there any way to an index that can be used to include the "OR condition "?
Hello I have some questions.
The test was conducted in the following procedure .
create table test
c1 varchar2(10),
c2 varchar2(10),
primary key(c1)
create index test_idx1 on test(c2);
Command> explain select * from test where c1 = 'AAAAAAAAAA' or c2 = 'AAAAAAAAAA';
Query Optimizer Plan:
STEP: 1
LEVEL: 1
OPERATION: RowLkRangeScan
TBLNAME: TEST
IXNAME: TEST
INDEXED CONDITION: <NULL>
NOT INDEXED: TEST.C2 = 'AAAAAAAAAA' OR TEST.C1 = 'AAAAAAAAAA'
Command>
Command> explain select * from test where c1 = 'AAAAAAAAAA' and c2 = 'AAAAAAAAAA'
Query Optimizer Plan:
STEP: 1
LEVEL: 1
OPERATION: RowLkRangeScan
TBLNAME: TEST
IXNAME: TEST
INDEXED CONDITION: TEST.C1 = 'AAAAAAAAAA'
NOT INDEXED: TEST.C2 = 'AAAAAAAAAA'
Command>
By including the "OR condition " in this test does not use the index.
Is there any way to an index that can be used to include the "OR condition "?
Thanks.
GooGyum.A database cannot in general use indexes in this way for an 'or' involving two different columns. However, for this specific example one can easily rewrite the query using 'UNION' to use the relevant indexes while still giving the same (correct) result:
Command> explain select * from test t1 where t1.c1 = 'AAAAAAAAAA' union select * from test t2 where t2.c2 = 'AAAAAAAAAA';
Query Optimizer Plan:
STEP: 1
LEVEL: 1
OPERATION: RowLkRangeScan
TBLNAME: TEST
IXNAME: TEST
INDEXED CONDITION: T1.C1 = 'AAAAAAAAAA'
NOT INDEXED: <NULL>
STEP: 2
LEVEL: 2
OPERATION: RowLkRangeScan
TBLNAME: TEST
IXNAME: TEST_IDX2
INDEXED CONDITION: T2.C2 = 'AAAAAAAAAA'
NOT INDEXED: <NULL>
STEP: 3
LEVEL: 1
OPERATION: OrderBy
TBLNAME: <NULL>
IXNAME: <NULL>
INDEXED CONDITION: <NULL>
NOT INDEXED: <NULL>
STEP: 4
LEVEL: 2
OPERATION: UnionMergeSort
TBLNAME: <NULL>
IXNAME: <NULL>
INDEXED CONDITION: <NULL>
NOT INDEXED: <NULL>
Maybe you can apply a similar trick? If you know there is no possibility of duplicate rows then you can further optimise this (in terms of performance) by using UNION ALL.

Need to know of a method / process that can be used to send the same msg to all those appearing in my email listings with the same extension after the "@" sign in their address(es) on my macbook [Snow Leopard].
If you simply want to send the exact same message to everyone in your address book with emails ending in "@whatever.com", you can do the following:
Create an email with subject, message and attachments but no addresses
Open Address Book, All Contacts
Search in Address Book for @whatever.com
Select the results and drag them into the To: or Bcc: field of the email. If Bcc: then put your email address in the To: field.
Send the email
This will not personalize the emails (such as with "Dear firstname:" at the top of the message) but it will let you send an idential message to everyone who meets your criteria.
