Can't find UME Permissions DC

Hi!
I trying to do the tutorial "Protecting Access to the Web Dynpro Car Rental Application Using UME Permissions" but when i try to create the DC UME Permissions it's nothing there.. it's nothing under the node sap.com->content->...
Is there any library that i need to add? or is this a install problem?
Thanks!
Regards,
Dalmo

As I said, this is mentioned in the tutorial: "Before beginning with the tutorial, you should familiarize yourself with the concepts necessary for
using UME permissions with this tutorial"
Did you do so?
I was wrong by the way, there is complete description for everything! If you still have a problem please tell me exactly on which page of the description.
Regards,
Benny

  • Where can i find my permissions folder to chande it from 175 to 177 in English

    The script cannot either find or write to the
    /export/emc-cust01/9/0/1/candyb1/wrapper directory. Please check this setting if the BASEDIR variable, and the permissions of the directory. If you have them set to 755, please change them to 777.

    Are you creating an add-on for Firefox? If so, you'd be better off posting that question in the AMO forum @ https://forums.mozilla.org/addons/

  • I'm trying to share folder between users on a single mac.  I put the folder in "shared," set permissions so other user can read and write, enabled file sharing, but can't find the folder on the second user's account.  Any help?

    I'm trying to share a folder between users on a single mac.  I want both users to be able to read and write so the folder stays current on both accounts.  I put the folder in "shared," set permissions on folder so other user can read and write, enabled file sharing, but can't find the folder on the second user's account.  Any help?

    Did you log out of one account and into the other or just used Fast user switching?
    Is the permissions set to anyone?
    When you move data to teh Shared folder is it copied or just moved?
    If copied then it's not a folder both can access, just a way station like a USB thumb drive that things are coped too and off of likely.
    You can run this #5 on each user account to reset the user permissions once they are taken back out of the Shared folder

  • Where can I find the button to permit a pop-up (I have Yosemite)

    Where can I find the button to permit a pop-up (I have Yosemite)

    launch your safari browser, then, on the top left corner of your desk top, enter into Safari browser preferences, then click on the security tab after your Safari preference pane pops up. once you click on Security, you'll see 5 boxes. the fourth one down will be the block pop up windows. unclick that puppy, and you'll be allowing pop ups. hope this helps.

  • IMac 3.06 21.5" can't find permissions. I'm locked out.

    2 month old iMac 3.06, 21.5", OS 10.6.2.
    Installed 3 updates from Apple last night (aluminum keyboard, iLife, something else). All seemed to be working fine. Put computer to sleep at 2:00 PM, came back at 8:30 and when hit space bar, all settings and files were locked out, and computer reverted to default. Signed on and off, change identity, rebooted, ran disk utility, checked hardware, no joy. Checked console log, long string of errors when computer started at 8:30, if I'm reading correctly, it can't find path or file library/user...sync or settings. Log says quoting"something is seriously wrong" at the end of a string which I don't understand. I managed to save log - after a struggle ("you don't have permission to save...").
    I can sign in with my original admin account, but all of the files and settings are denied to me. I had a secondary admin account with minimal assets which seems OK, but it can't access the files either.
    Any suggestions? I'd like to save the files if I can, even if I have to reformat the drive, plus I'd like to find out what happened so I can stop it from happening again.
    I duped this post in an OP about some person who had a complete fail in a new 27" iMac after a software upgrade. I don't know that the auto Software Upgrade is responsible.

    Ok, problem fixed, if not solved. A very helpful Apple tech walked me through opening terminal and entering a sudo command line that established my user name as the owner with owner access. Like magic, everything reverted back to original state of affairs.
    Reviewing the console log of the error, it started when I tried to wake up the iMac from sleep with network access from another Mac, which should not have been a problem. This is in the category of "Who knows?" If there is a repeat, I'll come back here and post it.

  • A deleted podcast is still somewhere in itunes?  can't find it?

    I thought I had deleted a particular podcast but I noticed that this one kept syncing to my ipod and showed up on the apple tv. When I went to the folder through finder I found this podcast was still on my system although I saw it nowhere in itunes. I deleted the file manually.
    Now, when I sync my ipod, I receive the message that this particular podcast could not be found to be synced. I've done a search by name through itunes and can't find any reference to this now deleted podcast or why it's attempting to sync it.
    I've repaired permissions just for kicks. I've re-booted for kicks. Nothing helps.
    I'm stumped. Any ideas?
    Thanks.

    more info...I have a smart playlist that syncs certain podcasts that I've put a star next to. I did find a reference to this podcast in the smart playlist which means it is noted with a star. But, when I go to the podcast directory, it is nowhere to be found. I can't delete the reference in the smart playlist b/c it's a smart playlist.

  • Can't find printer in print browser

    Somehow my printer disappeared from the print browser. I have a ibook G4 laptop running OSX 4.11, that is connected to my desktop via a router. Last night I could not print from it (the desktop printing is working just fine). I tried the printer setup utility and no printers are listed nor are any printers found. I downloaded a print driver but can't find it when I do a search using the print browser and am not sure where to look to find it .
    I also tried to add the IP manually (am sure this wasn't the original setup) and using localhost:631 (on the desktop) > manage printers, but the device URI shows up as file://dev/null.
    My desktop is a powermac G4 running 10.5.7, the printer is an HP deskjet 5650. All worked great until last night.
    I've tried everything I can think of and would appreciate any guidance.
    Thanks,

    Hmmm, something is wrong I suspect.
    At this point I think you should get Applejack...
    http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/19596
    After installing, reboot holding down CMD+s, (+s), then when the DOS like prompt shows, type in...
    applejack AUTO
    Then let it do all 5 of it's things.
    At least it'll eliminate some questions if it doesn't fix it.
    The 5 things it does are...
    Correct any Disk problems.
    Repair Permissions.
    Clear out Cache Files.
    Repair/check several plist files.
    Dump the VM files for a fresh start.

  • Can't save messages, can't find trash folder

    I've just tried switching from using webmail (IMP) to using Mail. I can send and receive email, but I'm having a couple of problems.
    First, Mail won't let me save my messages (i.e. those which I'm sending) - I just get the uninformative "Error: Message cannot be saved".
    Second, although I can delete messages, I can't find my trash folder.
    Any ideas?
    iBook G4   Mac OS X (10.4.4)  

    Hi Ernie, thanks for your response.
    It’s an IMAP account. I’ve just tried Repair Permissions – that hasn’t done the trick. And I haven’t moved the Mail folder around, at least not to my knowledge. It’s still in the Library.
    In my IMAP account folder in the Finder, I have the three following folders:
    (1) INBOX.imapmbox
    (2) INBOX
    (3) shared
    And in the second of these, INBOX, I have:
    (4) sent-mail.imapmbox
    (5) drafts.imapmbox
    (6) imhoprefs.imapmbox
    Perhaps I should also tell you how the left-hand navigation bar on Mail looks:
    I have three main folders: ‘Inbox’, ‘Sent’ and ‘shared’. ‘Inbox’ contains, as subfolders, the following:
    ‘drafts’
    (ii) ‘imhoprefs’
    (iii) ‘sent-mail’

  • How Can I Find Out If Someone Is Spying On My Macbook?

    How can I find out if someone is spying on my macbook?  It's about 5  years old and I think someone is remotely controlling it even though my remote management and screen sharing is always off in the Sharing panel in Systems Preferences.   I don't SHARE anything willingly!  My screen shakes up and down or sometimes it just falls a few inches and I keep losing my place.  This only happens while I am on the internet.  The arrow icon for the mouse also behaves erratically at times, as if it is being controlled by someone else.  And I have people stalking me who seem to know what I buy on the internet and where I am going when I use google maps, ect....   How do I get rid of remote desktop from a MAC 10.6.8  or trace the idiots doing this to me??? 
    Thanks.

    I think it may be more of an issue with the startup disk rather than spyware.
    Launch Disk Utility located in HD > Applications > Utillities
    Select the startup disk on the left then select the First Aid tab.
    Click:  Verify Disk  (not Verify Disk Permissions)
    If DU reports errors, start up from your Mac install disc to make repairs.

  • Hello! I have one iTunes library on my iPod and one iTunes library on my computer. When I connect my iPod touch to my PC, however, I cannot find any files in my iPod except for pictures. How can I find the music files so I can add them to my iTunes?

    Hello! I have one iTunes library on my iPod and one iTunes library on my computer. When I connect my iPod touch to my PC, however, I cannot find any files in my iPod except for pictures. How can I find the music files so I can add them to my iTunes?

    You can't do that.
    And before you decide to store any music that you own on a computer at work, talk to your IT department. Many organizations do not permit it for legal reasons. Standard policies are that anything stored on company owned computers is the property of the company. It could not be legally stored on their machines unless you transfer the licenses and all copies, physical and digital, to the company, meaning you no longer own the music. If they were to be audited and could not prove that they own the music, they would be subject to copyright violation penalties. Just use your iPod when you're at the office if you want to listen to music.

    The serial number was included in the box ARD came in; the Apple Store will not have a record of it. If you've lost the serial number, you'll need to purchase a new copy of ARD, probably a good idea anyway since 2.2 won't run on any version of Mac OS X since, if memory serves, 10.4. It's a lot cheaper through the Mac App Store than it was back when you first purchased.

  • Envy 7640 Can't Find 'Scan Settings'

    I have an Envy 7640 E-All-In-One printer, S/N: TH4B1260YY, FPU: E4W43-64001. I am currently using OS X Yosemite, v10.10.1, with no outstanding updates on a Mac mini (Late 2014), 2.8 Ghz Intel Core i5 with 8 GB RAM. There are no error messages on the device or my computer.
    I have installed the printer using the HP full-featured driver, dated 2014-09-01, version 12.39, provided by the HP Support website. The setup completed successfully, the printer is working great on the wireless network, and printer features work fine. When provided the option, I also installed HP Scan. The HP Scan standalone program opens, but does not detect any devices or scanners.
    On a nearby Windows 7 machine, I was able to setup the scanner and use it from the software for that OS. Scanning directly from the device and emailing the scan, as well as webscan functions also work. I am certain the issue is NOT with the device scanner itself.
    I followed the troubleshooting guide found here, and completed solution #1. I was not able to complete solution #2 because in my HP Utility I do not have a "Scan Settings" option. Here is a screen grab of my HP Utility view:
    I also completed solution #3 (repair disk permissions) and solution #4 (check connectivity). Both completed without issue. I then performed solution #5 (reinstall the printer software), setup the printer again without issue for printer functionality, but still do not have a scan settings in HP Utility.
    Please help!

  • How can i repair disk permissions i know i altered?

    sigh... this is the second time i've fudged my wife's MacBook.
    i downloaded some music on my MBP. i then gave her the same files via USB (then again later via Bonjour). the files work on my MBP and on my iPod Touch no problem. her MacBook received the files into her inbox no problem. but in iTunes, trying to add the files into her Library, an error comes up saying roughly 'you do not have sufficient access to preform this action'. a few google searches later, i figured it was a permissions problem in the file folders.
    command-I over her Music Folder, change privileges to "Read and Write" for 'My Wife', 'Admin', and 'Everyone'. click the gears icon below that, and 'Apply to Enclosed Items'. restart.
    didn't work. so i thought to myself: hmmm, maybe its a folder im not thinking to check. if i just changed those permissions across the board, it'll work then! i'm so smart.
    command-I over her disc icon on the desktop, change privileges to "read and Write" for 'My Wife', 'Admin', and 'Everyone'. click the gears icon below that, and 'Apply to Enclosed Items'. restart.
    Grey Screen... Apple Logo... Wheel... automatic restart... Grey Screen... Apple Logo... Wheel... automatic restart... over, and over, and over.
    ok, so i troubleshoot on the forums here. after quite a few reads, i land on:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1379
    follow steps for safe boot, no luck.
    follow steps for resetting PRAM, nuthin.
    follow steps for Disk Utility, and i find there were quite a few Permissions that were changed (duh).
    the Repair Permissions finishes and most of the log says the 'Permissions were modified and will not be Repaired'. i know i can ignore most of the SUID files that won't be repaired, but there a re a handful of files that im sure are causing the problem. is there another step i can take here? can i rewrite the permissions for the problem files in the terminal?
    or am i barking up the wrong tree here entirely?
    Archive and install is my next step, but i want that to be my last resort, if only because she's gonna kill me. the last time i "fixed" her MacBook, it ran me $280 for the file recovery service. we're in a recession people, i don't wanna blow another $280.

    i downloaded some music on my MBP. i then gave her the same files via USB (then again later via Bonjour). the files work on my MBP and on my iPod Touch no problem. her MacBook received the files into her inbox no problem. but in iTunes, trying to add the files into her Library, an error comes up saying roughly 'you do not have sufficient access to preform this action'. a few google searches later, i figured it was a permissions problem in the file folders.
    command-I over her Music Folder, change privileges to "Read and Write" for 'My Wife', 'Admin', and 'Everyone'. click the gears icon below that, and 'Apply to Enclosed Items'. restart.
    didn't work. so i thought to myself: hmmm, maybe its a folder im not thinking to check. if i just changed those permissions across the board, it'll work then! i'm so smart.
    command-I over her disc icon on the desktop, change privileges to "read and Write" for 'My Wife', 'Admin', and 'Everyone'. click the gears icon below that, and 'Apply to Enclosed Items'.
    that was not clever. you now have to do an archive and install. and in the future NEVER EVER and I mean under ANY conditions use "apply to enclosed items" on ANY system created folders and your startup drive. that includes among other things your home directory, your Music folder, your desktop folder, etc. Use it ONLY on folders you make yourself. you should never change permissions on system files period. the reason you shouldn't do it on system created folders in your home directory like the Music folder is that such folders often have hidden ACLs and using "apply to enclosed items" will propagate those ACLs to everything inside. in particular, the Music folder has "everyone deny delete" ACLs and if you use "apply to enclosed items" on it you'll have to enter your admin password any time you need to delete move or rename anything in that folder.
    restart.

    ok, so i troubleshoot on the forums here. after quite a few reads, i land on:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1379
    follow steps for safe boot, no luck.
    follow steps for resetting PRAM, nuthin.
    follow steps for Disk Utility, and i find there were quite a few Permissions that were changed (duh).
    the Repair Permissions finishes and most of the log says the 'Permissions were modified and will not be Repaired'. i know i can ignore most of the SUID files that won't be repaired, but there a re a handful of files that im sure are causing the problem. is there another step i can take here? can i rewrite the permissions for the problem files in the terminal?
    or am i barking up the wrong tree here entirely?
    Archive and install is my next step, but i want that to be my last resort, if only because she's gonna kill me. the last time i "fixed" her MacBook, it ran me $280 for the file recovery service. we're in a recession people, i don't wanna blow another $280.

  • Where can I find OS 10.4.11 to install to my old PowerBook G4?

    Hello.
    I have an old Powerbook G4 on which I had installed OS 10.4.11,
    but I can't seem to find the cd to reinstall. It is running a bit slow as it has been many years, and I wanted to format the hard drive and reinstall the same OS.
    I also have Mac OS leopard, but i think it might be too heavy for this old machine.
    1. What is the latest OS I can put on this powerbook so that it still runs smoothly?
    2. If i want to install 10.4.11 where can I find it?

    Tiger install DVDs are in short supply. Tiger is no longer available at the Apple Store *but may be available for $129 by calling Apple Phone Sales @ 1-800-MY-APPLE (1-800-692-7753)*. For other sources, do a Google search for [b]MA453Z/A (10.4.6)[/b], [b]MA190Z/A (10.4.3)[/b] and [b]M9639Z/A (10.4) [/b]. Also look on eBay. Be sure & buy a retail version (black with silver X) <img src="http://www.macmaps.com/tiger.jpg"> and not a model specific version (gray) (See <b><a href=" http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1976068" target="new"> Can I use another Mac's system restore disc on my Mac?</a></b> ). Expect to pay (possibly a lot) more than the Apple list price of $129.

    After you install the base 10.4.x, update to the final Tiger version 10.4.11. Here's the link for the 10.4.11 combo update http://support.apple.com/kb/TA24901?viewlocale=en_US
    Look at this link [b]Mac OS X v10.4 Tiger Installing Software Support Page[/b]
    http://www.apple.com/support/tiger/install/
    You can also download the [b]Tiger Installation and Setup Guide[/b]
    http://manuals.info.apple.com/en/Tiger_Install_Setup_Guide.pdf
    When you upgrade the OS, do it via Archive & Install. See [b]About the Archive and Install feature[/b] http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1710
    Be sure to select Preserve Users & Settings. Also, repair permissions before and after the install.
