Convert between simplified Chinese and traditional Chinese iWork 13

In the latest version of iWork, services of converting between Simplified Chinese and Traditional Chinese doesn't work any more. Does it happen to me only, or to everyone? If the latter, I truly hope Apple can add the function soon back the iWork suite.

You need to go back to Pages 4 for this to work.

  • What are the differences between Easy VSS and Traditional VSS on Catalyst 4500E with Sup 8E ?

    I would like to know which feature is different between Easy VSS and Traditional VSS.
    I know "Easy VSS is a new way of implementing VSS by using a single command" but I cannot find more information about it.
    Please help.
    Thank you.
    Nash

    Easy VSS is a simplified and automated way of configuring VSS for first time. Once a VSS is configured then it same as traditional VSS in functionality.
    There is no concept of layer 2 or layer 3 VSL link. VSL is the internal portchannel link and you cannot configure as layer 2 or layer 3 portchannel.
    Following is the link of Easy VSS steps.

  • Help converting between Java Dates and SQL Dates

    Hey all,
    I'm working on a JSP to allow a user to enter information about news articles into a mySQL database. I'm using text fields for most of the data, and most of it is transferred correctly when the user hits "Submit." However, I am having a problem with the date field of the mySQL database. Basically I'm trying to retrieve the current date from the JSP page, and then insert this into the date field of the appropriate table when the user hits submit. The problem is that I can't typecast a java.util.Date or even a java.util.Calendar to a java.sql.Date object. I've tried lots of approaches, including creating a new instance of java.util.Calendar, getting all its fields and concatenating them onto the date variable, but this doesn't work.
    Anyone know how I could easily convert between java.util.Date or java.util.Calendar and java.sql.Date?
    Thanks!

    Thanks for the help!
    I can correctly display the current date on the page in java.sql.Date format now, but it's still not being inserted into the database correctly. The specific code is as follows:
    java.util.Date dt = new java.util.Date();
    java.sql.Date sqlDate = new java.sql.Date(dt.getTime());
    (As you wrote)
    Then (after connecting to the database etc.):
    PreparedStatement pstmt = con.prepareStatement("INSERT INTO NEWS(NEWSDATE,DAYOFWEEK,AUTHOR,HEADLINE,CLIP,PUBLICATION,LINK,NEWSLOCATION,DATECREATED,DATEMODIFIED,CATEGORY,KEYWORDS,PHOTOURL,PHOTOGRAPHER,AUDIOURL) VALUES (?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?)");
    pstmt.clearParameters();
    pstmt.setString(1,date);
    pstmt.setString(2,dayofweek);
    pstmt.setString(3,author);
    pstmt.setString(4,headline);
    pstmt.setString(5,clip);
    pstmt.setString(6,publication);
    pstmt.setString(7,link);
    pstmt.setString(8,newslocation);
    pstmt.setDate(9,sqlDate);
    pstmt.setString(10,datemodified);
    pstmt.setString(11,category);
    pstmt.setString(12,keywords);
    pstmt.setString(13,photoURL);
    pstmt.setString(14,photographer);
    pstmt.setString(15,audioURL);
    int i = pstmt.executeUpdate();
    pstmt.close();
    All the other fields are retrieved with request.getParameter from text fields. Any idea why the DATECREATED field is being updated to all 0's but the others work fine?
    Thanks again.

  • ASCII-EBCDIC convertion between z/Os and Linux

    Hi experts, we are migrating our landscape to z/Os (DB+ASCS) and Linux (PAS). We have our GLOBALHOST on z/Os but we are experimenting some problems when we try to install our application servers because the conversion between platforms.
    In the planning guide we can see that there is a way to mount NFS file systems exported from z/Os, that make this convertion in an automatic way, but the commands mentioned on the guide are for UNIX and not for Linux.
    Does any of you have this kind of installtion that could help us to set this parameters ok?
    Or does any of you face this problems before?
    Regards
    gustavo

    First, yes, we have z/OS systems programmers and DBAs with specific knowledge of DB2 z/OS. One of the reasons we initially went with the Z platform when we implemented SAP was that our legacy systems ran there for many years and our company had a lot of Z knowledge and experience. zSeries was one of our "core competencies".
    I also need to give you a little more information about our Z setup. We actually had 2 z9 CECs in a sysplex, one in our primary data center and another close by in our DR site and connected by fiber. This allowed us to run SAP as HA on the Z platform. For highly used systems like production ERP we actually ran our DB2 instances active/active. This is one of the few advantages of the Z platform unavailable on other platforms (except Oracle RAC, which is also expensive but can at least be implemented on commodity hardware). Another advantage is that the SAP support personnel for DB2 z/OS are extremely knowledgeable and respond to issues very quickly.
    We also chose the Z platform because of the touted "near-continuous availability" which sounded very good. Let me assure you, however, that although SAP has been making great strides with things like the enhancement pack installer, at present you will never have zero downtime running SAP on any platform. Specifically you will still have planned downtime for SAP kernel updates and support packs or enhancement packs, period. The "near-continuous availability" in this context refers to zero unplanned downtime. In my experience this is not the case either. We had several instances of unplanned downtime, the most recent had to do with issues when the CECs got to 100% CPU utilization for a brief period of time and could not free some asinine small memory area that caused the entire sysplex to pause all LPARs until it was dealt with(yes, this could be dealt with using system automation but our Z folks would prefer to deal with these manually since each situation can be different). We worked with IBM on a PMR for several months, but our eventual "workaround" was much better. We stopped running our DB2 instances as active/active and never had the problem again. We chose this "workaround" because we knew we were abandoning the platform and any of the test fixes from IBM required a rolling update of z/OS in all LPARs (10 total at the time), which is a major hassle, especially when you do it several times applying several different fixes until the problem is finally solved.
    We also experienced some issues with DB2 z/OS itself. In one case, some data in a table in production got corrupted (yikes!!) SAP support helped us correct the data based on our QA system and IBM delivered a PTF (or maybe it was a ++APAR) to correct the problem. We also had several instances of strange poor performance in ERP or BI that were solved with a PTF or by using some special RUNSTATS output by some IBM DB2 tool our DBAs ran when we gave them the "bad" query. Every time we updated DB2 z/OS with an RSU felt like a craps shoot. Sometimes there were no issues revealed during testing, other times major issues were uncovered. This made us very hesitant when it came to patching DB2 and also made us stay well behind currently available maintenance so we could let other organizations identify problems.
    Back to the topic of downtime related to DB2 z/OS itself, we know another company which runs SAP on Z that takes several hours of downtime each week (early Sunday morning I think) to REORG some large BLOB tables(if you're not in the monthly conference call for SAP on DB2 z/OS organizations, I suggest you join in). The need for RUNSTATS and REORGs to be dealt with explicitly (typically once a day for RUNSTATs and once a week for REORGs, at least for us) is a major negative of the platform, in my opinion. It is amazing what "proper" RUNSTATS can do to a previously poor performing query(hours reduced to seconds!). Also, due to the way REORGs are handled in DB2 z/OS, you'll need a lot of extra disk space for the image copies which get created. In our experience you need enough temp disk to hold the shadow copy of the largest table being REORGd and the image copies of the largest tables that are REORGd in the same time period. I recall that the image copies can be migrated to tape or virtual tape to free the image copy space back up using a periodic job, but it was a huge amount of trial and error to properly size this temp disk space, especially when the tables requiring a REORG are not the same week-to-week. We heard that with DB2 z/OS v10 that RUNSTATS and REORGs will be dealt with automatically by DB2, but I do not know if it has even been certified for SAP yet(based on recent posts in this forum it would appear not). Even when it is, I would not recommend going to it immediately(we made this mistake when DB2 z/OS v9 was certified and suffered for months getting bugs with SAP and DB2 interoperability fixed). Also, due to the way that REORGs work on BLOB tables, there will be a period of table unavailability. The caused us some issues/headaches. There are some extra REORG parameters you can set, but these issues are still always a possibility and I think that is why the company mentioned previously just took the weekly downtime to finish the REORGs on their large BLOB tables. They are very smart folks that are very experienced with zSeries and they engaged IBM experts for assistance to try and perform the REORGs online and yet they still take the downtime to perform the BLOB REORGs offline. In contrast, these periodic database tasks do not require our Basis team to do anything with SQLServer and do not cause our end-users grief when a table is unavailable.
    Our reasons for moving platforms (which, let me assure you was a major undertaking and was considered long and hard) were based on 3 things:
    1. Complexity
    2. Performance
    3. Cost
    When I speak of complexity, let me give you some data... There was a time when ~50% of all of the OSS messages the Basis team opened with SAP were in the BC-DB-DB2 category. In contrast, I think we've opened 1 or 2 OSS messages in the BC-DB-MSS category ever. Many of the OSS messages for DB2 z/OS resulted in a fix from either SAP or from IBM. We've had seveal instances of applying a PTF, ++APAR, or RSU to z/OS and/or DB2 which fixed serious "unable to perform a job function" problems with SAP. We've yet to have to apply a single update to Windows or SQLServer to fix an issue with SAP.
    To summarize... Comparing our previous and current SAP platforms, the performance was slower, the cost higher, and the complexity much higher. I have no doubt (especially with the newer Z10 and zEnterprise 196) that we could certainly have built a zSeries SAP solution which performed on par with what we have now, but.... I could not even fathom a guess as to the cost. I suspect this is why you don't see any data  for the standard SAP SD benchmark on zSeries.
    I suspect you're already committed to the platform since deploying a Z machine, even in a lab/sandbox environment isn't as easy as going down to your local computer dealer and buying a $500 test server to install on, but... If you wanted to run SAP on DB2 I would suggest looking at DB2 LUW on either X86_64 Linux or on IBM's pSeries platform.

  • Converting between .mkv .mov and .mp4

    I have been given some h264 video files in .mkv format and am able to convert these to .mov by resaving them out to .mov from QuickTime Player 7.
    I can change the file extension in Finder to .mp4 and they seem to then more or less behave as .mp4 files.
    Are they actually .mp4, or QT doesn't care and just opens them anyway?
    What is the best method of handling these files for widest usage on multiple devices?
    I have read up as much as I can on the file formats but no-where does it say what OSX is actually doing when I change the extension.
    Am I right in wanting them to be .mp4 files?
    Peter

    I didn't state the audio format(s) because it has rarely been an issue, if it fails it fails at the first hurdle. The container.
    Non-AAC audio will likely fail to load/play if the MKV Extension is changed at the Finder Level. Using MPEG Streamclip to move the compressed data to a "real" MP4 file container will normally strip the audio from the final file. If you wish to retain the audio, use the QT 7 Pro "Movie to MPEG-4" option, use video passthrough, and transcode the audio to AAC.
    Most of the .mkv files have aac audio, but not all. Chapters are irrelevant, never having found any nor thought them useful.
    This is a user preference. I prefer to keep the original chapter markers for apps that use them rather than falling back on the defaulted markers added by some device players.
    I am playing the files on several Macs, 2 PCs, an iPhone, iPod Touch, iPad 2 and possibly future Android devices. There are even 2 TVs which seem to be stuck with only reading avi.
    Macs, iPhones, iPod Touch, and iPad will play H.264/AAC compressed data natively in MOV, MP4, or M4v file containers. PCs and Android playback will depend on the compatibility of the player app used on the device. Macs will play H.264 with any audio supported by your Mac codec component configuration in the MOV file container.
    My main target however is a PS3, which has turned out to be the most flexible media device in the house but does object to some files for indeterminant reasons. I will need to do comprehensive testing to find exactly what it is it doesn't like. Mostly it is good, once you update the system.
    Do not own a PS3 but believe it is supossed to be compatible iTunes and mobile device supported formats. Again, the file container of choice would depend on the content you wish to include in the file. If you want to include AC3 DD5.1 sourround soud audio, I would normally recommend the MV4 or MOV containers.
    The secondary target is iTunes so that I can get the files onto my iPod Touch and iPhone. I'm sort of used to that level of Apple devices (and I presume AppleTV) "Just not working" unless it suits Apple. So I restrict my viewing to mp4 files of my own creation or mkv files so over the top in size that recompression does little to degrade them.
    Again, the M4V file container with H.264/AAC with or without AC3 surround audio, alternative AAC audio, and/or chapters is usually the preferred norm. If you plan to use a "universal" file format, then the display dimensions, frame rate, profile, and level for encodes may depend on the specific devices involved. I.e., that is why I limit my files to 720p30 Main Profile Level 3.1 to High Profile Level 4.0 compression and rarely use even half (more commonly only about a quarter to a third) of the video data rates allowed with these settings.
    XBMC and other Media Server software seem, like VLC to be pretty tolerant, and whilst I haven't yet built myself a Media Server, it is on my longer term To-Do list.
    I use iTunes for in-house media server software to TV and mobile devices with Air Video as my primary server software externally via the internet to mobile devices when away from home. Both access the same Promise Pegasus R6 12 TB RAID storage device. (Have moved most of my content from an old Drobo Pro RAID and am in the process of upgrading the current 16 TB unit to 24 TBs as individual drives fail for the storage of raw video footage.)
    The h264 should pass straight through in a simple QT resave? Same if it has AAC audio?
    If the source MKV file is playback compatible with your system's current codec component configuration, then the QT 7 Pro or MPEG Streamclip "Save As..." option can copy the data in the MKV file directly to a new MOV file container without transcoding/recompressing any of the data. Unfortunately, the QT X player is a bit more iffy. Basically, Apple has combined the "Save, Export, and Save As..." options in to a single menu option. The result is that sometimes the app will recompress the data and at other times it may not—dependent on a numbe of variables.)
    If the MKV file contains H.264 video and AAC audio, then the MPEG Streamclip "Save As..." option allows you to select either MOV or MP4 as the target file container. If the MKV file contains H.264 video but the audio is not AAC but is still export-compatible with the QT 7 Pro app, then you can use the QT 7 Pro "Movie to MPEG-4" Export option to pass the H.264 video unchanged to a new MP4 file container while simultaneously coverting the audio to AAC. Since you still have not stated what non-AAC formats are included in some of your MKV files, I cannot tell at this point if this is a viable workflow for you.
    That covers most cases. I'm still not a 100% clear on tghe real differences between .mov and .mp4 containers and how much it really matters in the scheme of things. .mp4 seems to the go, does .mov cause a problem? If so how and how best to rectify that?
    The containers are different. They have different internal identifiers, features, capabilities, and sometimes limitations. CDs, DVDs, and BDs are all different types of optical media but each has different capacities, ratings, and features that determine how they can be used, what kind of media can be recoded on it, and what kind of a device must be used for playback. MP4 containers are very limited. Thay can only conatain MPEG-4 (MPEG-4/H.264) video and MPEG-4 (AAC) audio. M4V file containers are less limited and may typically contain H.264 video, AAC and/or AC3 audio, and chapter tracks. MOV file containers are generic and can hold up to 99 tracks of audio, video, image, text, 'tween, sprite, etc. data that is compatible with the system on which it was created. As to MOV files causing a problem—yes and no, depending on how you use it. Put "muxed" MPEG-2 data in an MOV file in an MOV file container and it will play normally in the QT 7 player (with the QT MPEG-2 component installed)—i.e., no problem. But try to play the same file in the QT X player and it will tell you that you are missing a codec component—a definite problem since you tried to play playable content in a container the media player did not expect to contain that particular form of compression. As to fixing aproblem. I would be better able to answer that if I knoew what specific problem you were referring to here.
    This is why I keep harping about knowing which player is to be used, what audio and video compression format is being used and what container is to be used. And we have not even gotten around to checking the H.264 settings. QT based players are standards conscious. Each Profile and level combination tells the player the max macroblock decoding rate, number of macroblocks allowed per frame, the maximum video data rate allowed, the highest useable resolution @ the highest frame rate, what features are supported by profile, etc. Unfortunately, some third-party venders sometimes hybridize these settings which can make the files unplayable in QT apps but they may still play on other players which do not check on or trap on the use of non-standard settings.
    BTW I did a quick hunt around on h265 and can't see what Apple is doing. Giving it a miss like it did with Bluray?
    Apple is not known for embracing such technology quickly—especially since they are still drafting and reviewing drafted standards. (I believe DivX released a draft version on the 15th of this month.) The current evolution of QT X will probably take another 5-7 years and Apple will have to design hardware capable of handling 4K and 8K  if anyone is actually going to put it to use on future Mac systems. The development of mobile devices have, for the most part, only been supporting 1080p resolutions for a relatively short period and jumping to 8K would represent something of a quantum leap at the consumer level.

  • Unable to read Simplified Chinese in downloaded excel

    Hi,
    We are running an MDMP Simplified Chinese SAP system.
    After extracting some data with both English and Simplified Chinese and saving it as excel file, we are not able to view the Simplified Chinese characters when it is opened in MS Excel.  "Garbage" are being displayed in place of Simplified Chinese.  English display is ok.
    The PC already has Simplified Chinese fonts installed (Control Panel->Regional & Language Options->Language tab->Install files for East Asian languages), and Windows XP is an English version.
    In addition, we are able to key in Simplified Chinese via the keyboard using Hanyu Pinyin.
    I am suspecting that the issue is with MS Excel which doesn't know how to convert the Simplified Chinese. 
    Does anyone know how to overcome this problem?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    as far as I know you need to set the system locale (Language for Non-Unicode programs) of Windows in the control panel to Chinese.
    In addition in a standard  MDMP system it is mandatory to logon with language Chinese if you want to download Kanji characters.
    Best regards,

  • Traditional and Simplified Chinese characters couldn't be displayed!

    Hi all,
    Recently I installed an Oracle 9i Database Server (9.0.1).
    Problem regarding the globalization support issue was encountered after the installation of Oracle 9i Database Server. Parameters in NLS table had been checked that the language is initially set to AMERICAN, territory is set to AMERICA and the character set is UTF8.
    Since traditional and simplified chinese characters must be required for the HK server, it is believed that the above parameters should be altered to TRADITIONAL CHINESE / SIMPLIFIED CHINESE, HONG KONG and ZHT16MSWIN950 / ZHS16CGB231280 respectively.
    I tried to alter the NLS_DATABASE_PARAMETERS, but it’s not working; should the NLS_SESSION_PARAMETERS be changed instead? I also tried this one, changes is taken place but the chinese characters still couldn't be displayed, just bunches of 亂碼 (meaningless codes) instead.
    Another piece of information is that the Oracle server is installed on the basis of Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition, should the Language for non-Unicode programs (which is in the “Advanced” page of the Regional and Language Settings) be configured to Chinese (HKSAR)? Various combinations, in terms of English (US), Chinese (HKSAR), Chinese (PRC), Chinese (Taiwan), had been taken turns to test for the results. However, same results happened.
    Hence, how should we configure? Please advice us.
    P.S.# It is known that this question should be placed in the "Globalization Support" forum, I have done that; however, it is hoped that I could seek more advice in here.
    Thx in advance.
    Karen

    Karen,
    Setting up such an environment requires some sophistication and know how. I would advise reading though the Globalization Support Guide and som of the papers on the Globalization Home Page http://www.oracle.com/technology/tech/globalization/index.html
    before randomly attempting to change parameters. If your requirement is to store and retrieve both TRADITIONAL and SIMPLIFIED CHINESE then your database needs to be Unicode (UTF-8). Designing an application that allows you to easily access multilingual data requires careful design and planning. If you are simply trying to quickly display data you have in your database you might want to use iSQL*PLUS which is browser based and will allow you to display Unicode data. It might also be helpful to take a look at the following paper: http://www.oracle.com/technology/tech/globalization/pdf/globalization-best-practices.PDF

  • What NLS_LANG can handles both Simplified and Traditional Chinese?

    Hi,
    What values should I put into the NLS_LANG for my 10g db in order to handle English, Traditional and Simplified Chinese?
    Can I specify the date format during the db creation?
    Thanks

    You can try to create a database with database character set AL32UTF8. Then configure the NLS_LANG in client using the same character set. After that, try to input both simplified chinese and traditional chinese into one character column. See what is the results. I guess in AL32UTF8, same character has different encodings for simplified chinese and traditional chinese since they are written different ways.
    For date format, I don't think you need to take care the database date format. Internally, Oracle keep date values using numeric type. When I handle date values, I retrieve it using to_char(datavalule, 'yyyy-mm-dd') and update it back using to_date('2006-01-01', 'yyyy-mm-dd') ('2006-01-01' is just an example).
