Copy Settings/Setups using Copy Express

Hi Guys,
I'm using B1 2007 A SP01 PL 05 and I want to copy all the settings and setups in an existing database unto a newly created one using the Copy Express add-on. I did this by selecting all the nodes except the manual transactions but did not get any data transferred at the end of the process.
Did i do anything wrong by selecting all the nodes?
Please note that the newly craeted database is completely blank except for the company name which was provided at the point of the company creation.
Thanks for your assistance.
John

Hi John,
Have you read through the document you posted a while ago? Copy express
You need to copy basic setting first. If not sure, then one by one. Hope these help:

Copying sent emails using Outlook Express to my ON...

I know that one can keep copies of emails received on Outlook Express on the online BT account, but is it possible to have copies of emails sent on Outlook Express kept on my online BT account?

A solution, although one (when online) needs to then file sent emails from the inbox. Surely there must be an easier way? (Thanks for thinking 'out of the box' though)
Standard SMTP/POP3 has no notion of folders, but there is an easier way - IMAP.
Unfortunately BT/Yahoo don't officially provide an IMAP service, but I've had some sucess using Yahoo!, although I've not tried with OE.

Problem while copying datas using Copy Express

Hai Experts,
Greetings.
We were trying to copy Master and Configuration datas from test database to Live database using Copy express. The datas from Item Master, BP Master copied Correctly, but, in CoA (we are using Segmented Accounts) the G/L Account --> the Code column shows the System refernce no. (ie., _SYS00000002679) and the Name of the G/L Account is copied correctly.
Is there any solution to solve this problem.
Thanks and Regards
Raja

On your test company, there's segmented accounting setup. Is the segmented accounting setup on the Live company (or have you managed to use copy express to copy over the segments and other settings)?
If you've done that, then maybe you could export to XML your Copy Express worksheet and upload it somewhere so we can have a look?

Using Copy Express in PLD

Hi Experts,
Is it possible to transfer PLD layouts from one database to another using Copy Express.
Can any one help me to solve this issue. bcs i have created all layout in test data base now i want to transfer to production database ....ASAP pls....
Karthi.

Karthi,
Copy Express will surely do the job and if you want to just copy a few templates individually, you could use this SQL Script
INSERT INTO [TARGET\].[DBO\].[RDOC\]
SELECT [SOURCE\].[DBO\].[RDOC\].* FROM [SOURCE\].[DBO\].[RDOC\]
WHERE [SOURCE\].[DBO\].[RDOC\].DOCCODE = 'CHO*****'
INSERT INTO [TARGET\].[DBO\].[RITM\]
SELECT [SOURCE\].[DBO\].[RITM\].*
FROM [SOURCE\].[DBO\].[RITM\]
WHERE [SOURCE\].[DBO\].[RITM\].DOCCODE = 'CHO*****' AND [SOURCE\].[DBO\].[RITM\].DOCCODE
IN (SELECT DOCCODE FROM [TARGET\].[DBO\].[RDOC\])
I DocCode example shown above is of the Check PLD template
You can get the DocCode from the PLd Document Properties window

New iMac, used Time Machine to Copy Settings from Laptop, Having Trouble

Sorry if this is a common question, but I couldn't find an answer after searching the boards.
My new MacBook arrived three weeks ago. Like a good girl, I've been backing up with Time Machine and an external hard drive. No problems.
My new iMac arrived yesterday. While setting it up, it asked if I wanted to copy settings from a Time Machine backup. I said "yes" (should have said "no") and told Time Machine to copy my laptop settings to my iMac. I did not copy Applications or Documents--just account information.
My new iMac is now a bit confused. It thinks it is a copy of my MacBook (the backup of the iMac is called 'MacBook 2'), and it also thinks I have software installed on it that I don't have installed. Specifically, it is refusing to install a statistical program, stating that "Install has detected the presence of SPSS 16.0 for Mac. Please uninstall the existing version before installing this version of the product."
Here's my question: is there a way I can "undo" the migration that I did yesterday? I certainly wouldn't be losing any files or anything of importance if I could just take it all back.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Chaya

it's probably some preference file in the transfered home directory that was put there when you installed that program on the macbook. You can try looking for that preference file in library folder in your home directory or you can create a new user account and install the software from there.

How to copy music library WITHOUT copying settings

I know that there are some similar questions. I promise that mine has some differences that I have not been able to find elsewhere.
My setup is a house full of laptops that all stream music from a central iTunes installation. For years, we've just used my wife's computer (windows) as the iTunes hub. She makes the most purchases and her computer is in a central point in the house so it's easy for the kids to make purchases on our family's account.
Recently, I bought a mac mini and have been turning it into the home server. I want it to also become the iTunes server. At the same time, I would still like my wife's computer to be where we make our purchases.
Accordingly, I setup rsync on a cron job to sync the entire library from my wife's computer to the mac mini. This way, all purchases are moved to the server within a day. My wife's computer still has the whole library, but she doesn't have to stream it to everyone else now. In fact, I turned off sharing for her iTunes installation.
Everything works except for one small problem. Because iTunes ludicrously saves preferences to the iTunes library, when I copy it over using rsync, it copies my wife's settings including having sharing disabled. I tried writing an apple script that could turn sharing back on, but it appears to not be possible. I thought that maybe I could just copy newly purchased media files over instead, but that loses the playlists.
Basically, I need to be able to buy music and create playlists on my wife's computer and have them sync to the server on the mac mini. My wife's computer should not share its library but the mac mini iTunes should. Any suggestions or ideas would be much appreciated.

Just use this Applescript to launch iTunes on the mini after every Library sync/change. It works for me in iTunes 11 to change the preferences of the target computer*:
tell application "iTunes" to activate
tell application "System Events"
tell process "iTunes"
keystroke "," using command down
delay 1
click button "Sharing" of toolbar 1 of window 1 --"Sharing Preferences"
-- Check the checkbox if it is checked!
if value of checkbox 1 of group 1 of window 1 is 0 then
click checkbox 1 of group 1 of window 1
end if
click button "OK" of window 1
end tell
end tell
* after going into System Preferences, Security & Privacy, Privacy tab, and under "Accessibility," checking the box to allow Applescript Editor.app to control the computer
If you've never used applescript before, you can make a single Applescript with both your Unix commands and this, just by prepending the Unix command with "Do shell script" (without quotes) and whatever you would type.

Windows File Sharing - Unable to copy/see files using MacBook from XP PC

I've trawled the internet for an answer to this and tried hundreds of little tweaks but all to not avail, so I'm here.
I've set up two shared folders using simple file sharing on a Windows XP (SP3) laptop. They have been given read/write permissions and were setup using an Administrator account (the only account).
Using Finder on my MacBook I can connect to the XP laptop and can see the shared folders. However, when I try to copy any file from the XP laptop's shared folders to my Macbook, it encounters an error (something about not having sufficient permissions). Also, if there are subfolders inside the main shared folder then I cannot see the individual files inside these subfolders.
I've tried using the XP laptop with and without a password, have disabled all anti-virus software (including Windows Firewall) and yet it still won't work.
After multiple restarts and changing options on both my MacBook and the XP laptop the same problem persits. Any light that can be shed would be most appreciated.

Hi - Did you ever get this resolved? I'm having pretty much the same issue!
Thanks,

Copy Settings to multiple images - STILL A NOT WORKING AFTER MANY VERSIONS!

I have reported the problem of pasting settings to multiple images for many versions and this simple bug is STILL present in LR4!
In develop module, make changes to an image, click Copy button, select settings to copy.
Now, select a range or a number of images to which you want to paste the settings, click Paste button. Guess what? Only the first image gets the settings!
This functionality should work and is even documented in the manual. There are other ways of copying settings but I can never remember how to do this.
Am I doing something wrong or is this a genuine bug that only seems to affect a few people (I did a web search for V3), or do people just not use this function?
Please developers, fix this bug if it really is a bug!

Thanks Dorin for the information.
I guess I am just frustrated that the program does not work the way it is documented. There are two very prominent buttons, Copy & Paste and they don't work as documented or as you would expect them to.
With sync you have to navigate menus to do what one click of the mouse should accomplish. All I want is some acknowledgement from Adobe that this is a bug and for it to be adressed. As a long-time IT person I know this would be VERY easy to fix. If it cannot be fixed then update the documentation.
Oh well, enough said. I still love LR!!!
