Can't change database entries

There is a number of entries in my iTunes database that are reset to their first version when I click on them to play them, e.g., when I have entered "Song no.1" as the name and later decide to change that into "Song no.2", the entry will be reset to "Song no.1" when I click on the title to play it. Strangely, this happens only with some of my entries, whereas others can be changed without problems, and as far as I can tell, it concerns only the fields "Name", "Album", and "Genre".
This has been a long-standing bug in iTunes (10.5.1) I currently have , and Apple don't seem to care. Is there any fix/workaround for it?
Thanks,
Tom

Yes, either via the menu or via the keyboard shortcut Command-I. Then you have this window opening with a number of buttons at the top ("Summary", "Info",...). When you select "Info", you get the mask to enter information about the title, (Name, Composer, etc.), and that's what I edited. Pressing "Ok" after the changes then changes the entry, but when the title is played at some point thereafter (be it minutes or weeks later), it is reset. I have checked the xml version of the database, which is human-readable, and observe that the change is recorded there as well, and after playing the song at some point later, it is also reset to the previous value.

Changing database entry only by entering a password

I'm trying to have a page that displays a persons data and each person is assigned to an agent. I want the field where the persons agent can be changed to have a password.
i.e if some other agent tries to change the persons agent they have to fill in the original agents password, so that only the agent assigned can change the assigned agent to a new one.
I hope that makes some sense some example code would be great.
Thanks Paul :)

THANK YOU SO MUCH!
It is a client-side setup. I'm afraid though i have a few more questions. I read your post a few times to gleam all i could.
I understand most of it, I'm just unsure of how to "connect to database to get the password corresponding to this user name". You said to use an int if i wanted different access levels the problem is that i need different access levels and each 'agent'/'user name' to only be able to edit the properties they have added to the database. how could i achieve this?
this is what i've come up with, it work but when i press login i get two errors:
* There is an error with your username, please fill it in exactly as assigned.
* You are not logged in, or your username does not exist or your password is not correct.

Can you change calendar entries on iPhone once they've synced with Exchange

I've noticed that I cannot edit calendar entries on my phone that I have put into my calendar via Exchange. Sometimes appointments run longer or the time changes, and all I can seem to do is delete it and re-enter a new appointment. This is a pain!
Any suggestions?

works fine on mine (1st gen)? I can "Edit" the same as on other calendars!
When you select "Edit" can you not select the start end time etc by touching the screen?

Can't change blog entries date - double clicking in date field doesnt work

I've read some posts here that you can't manually arrange the order in wich your blog entries appear, but you can change their dates, so that iWeb will always show from newest to oldest.
The thing is when I'm at the entries pane and I double click an entry's date field, nothing happens. I simply can't edit their date (wich means I can't rearrange them, I'm stuck with the order I created them).
When I double click their title I can change it, and if I press TAB it simply focus out of the editing pane, it doesn't move to the date field.
Any ideas why this is happening ? Im using iWeb 09 (3.0.1)

Found the solution! (I'm using iPhoto 4, BTW)
I click the film roll once.
I highlight the date field and change to my preferred date (MM/DD/YYYY format).
I hit "tab" or "enter" once.
I close the iPhoto window!
iPhoto quits, which is awkward, but when I reopen it, the date is set, and sticks.
If anyone else has this problem and has not migrated to the new iLife, this should do it for them!

How can I change database date/time(Sysdate) without changing OS date

Hello all,
I have a need to change the sysdate on a database for testing purposes and need to set the database date to a future date(ex. 6/30/2009). I have 2 other instances on the same server so changing the OS date is not an option. I'm familiar with setting the sysdate to a fixed value, but doing so changes the date to a constant because I still need the time to elapse. I've searched the forum and cannot find a way to do this. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,

Write your own sysdate function in pl/sql and create public synonym.
Sorry, It doesn't work.
create public synonym sysdate from my_sysdate

Change an entry in the CDHDR Table

Hello Everyone,
How can I change an Entry which is present in the CDHDR Table.
I know of the FM ENTRYSHEET_WRITE_DOCUMENT which allows me to
create entries in CDHDR programitically but I am not sure this will help me change the entries.
Thanks for your Help
Ashwin

Thanks for your reply Arun.
I am trying out the FM BAPI_DOCUMENT_CHANGE.
Can you suggest some way of determining the Input parameters for the same. This seems to be a DMS related FM.
My intention of changing the CDHDR Entry is to change the value in the "USERNAME" field of this table.
Thanks and Regards

Change database from NoArchivelog to Archivelog

Hi,
I currently using oracle9i(9.2.0.2) under w2k. How can I change database from NoArchivelog node to Archivelog node?
Thanks
Ken

If your using an spfile, then you can do the suggested using ALTER SYSTEM with the SCOPE=spfile; condition otherwise when you restart your instance the changes won't be recognized (if you're using an init.ora file then change it in the init.ora, but don't try to edit the spfile with a text editor, you'll corrupt it)
With the database open, issue
ALTER SYSTEM SET log_archive_start = true SCOPE=spfile;
ALTER SYSTEM SET log_archive_dest_1 = "location=c:\Oracle\oradata\orcl817\archive" SCOPE=spfile;
ALTER SYSTEM SET log_archive_format = %%ORACLE_SID%%T%TS%S.ARC SCOPE spfile;
Then do the shutdown and mount etc. as described above

How can you change data on a SQL 2012 application database that uses availability groups from BizTalk server?

If you use the WCF-SQL adapter it is recommend that you set UseAmbientTransaction to true if you are changing data. I think this requires MSDTC to be enabled on the SQL server that you are changing the data on. (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd787981.aspx)
I think that Availability groups does not support MSDTC. (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms366279.aspx).

ICal in OS X Lion default on new entries is 'all day'. How can I change that default?

The OS X Lion default on new iCal entries is 'all day'. How can I change that default? It seems odd that the default would be 'all day' when most entries are for meetings lasting less than that.

Unfortunetely the only way is to uncheck the box each time you set up an entry. I trust enough feedback from users will convince Apple to change that in the future.

Yours will help that effort.

Lock: Can't get shadow database entry for root

Hi all--
posting this here since I'm having trouble with a Solaris release version and not OpenSolaris. Plus, Rich makes it pretty clear not to bug him with questions about this program! :-D
Anyway I've been using Rich Teer's lock program on Solaris 10 (and 9) and it's been great. http://www.rite-group.com/rich/sw/lock.html
But now that I've built a new machine with the latest general Solaris 10 x86 release (Solaris 10 8/07 s10x_u4wos_12b X86) the portion of lock that gets info from the shadow file doesn't seem to work:
if I enter the incorrect password (to either lock or lock -p) I get:
lock: Can't get shadow database entry for root: Error 0
Rich discusses the background on his lock program in this article:
http://developers.sun.com/solaris/articles/program_privileges.html
...but it's over my head.
Anyone have some guidance on this? I'd really like to use this program in my work environment. thanks! ..and happy Thanksgiving!
