Currency update breaks calculator conversions

G5 iMac 1.9GHz 10.4.11
Yesterday I updated the currency conversions in Calculator and since then it is unresponsive when a conversion for any quality is selected. Saved conversions still work. Other aspects of the app still work, it is only conversions that are broken. Logging into a different account revealed non updated calculator functioned perfectly. On updating currencies it too broke.
So firstly how do I unbreak Calculator?
Secondly does this mean I can no longer safely update currency conversions?

Calculator seems to use info from this site...
http://finance.yahoo.com/currency-converter/#from=USD;to=CAD;amt=1
Yet does not agree with it, nor...
http://www.xe.com/ucc/convert.cgi?Amount=1&From=USD&To=CAD
Even though Calculator says it just updated a bit ago.

Currency updater in Calculator won't update ?

My calculator won't update since 9/5-2010.
Anybody know how to fix it and why it doesn't work anymore.
Thanks.

Apparently, Apple fixed the issue. Updated today. $25 = €18.4 ==> $1 = €0.736 which agrees with http://www.google.com/search?client=safari&rls=en&q=currency+rates&ie=UTF-8&oe=U TF-8.

Also I am not authorized to check the conversion rate using TCURR.
1) Calculated conversion rate 301.149,42529 is too big.
The exchange rate 301.149,42529 was calculated via the base currency USD.This produced a rate which exceeds the maximum allowed value of 9999.99999.
System response : The Processing can not be continued because the calculated rate cannot be used.
2) Error occurred during currency conversion.

Thanks fr the info. that u all hv given ..... I ran one program frm our side which will be updating the transfer exchange rates as u all have mentioned. But then , i am receiving the warnings.
Also,when i have checked the conversion rates,they r fine.
Please find the Below diagnosis ,which they hv given.
Diagnosis:
The exchange rate 301.149,42529- was calculated via the base currency USD. This produced a rate which exceeds the maximum allowed value of 9999.99999.
System Response:
The processing can not be continued because the calculated rate can not be used.
Procedure:
Check the conversion rate to the base currency USD and the exchange rate type E. If the rates are correct, you must agree different conversion factors for the currencies in question (e.g. 100:1 instead of 1:1), so that the resulting conversion rate does not exceed the value 9999.99999. Notification Number SG 119 .
Please solve this issue.Thanks in advance!

Currency Rate Update in Calculator

The Update Currency Rates button in Calculator removes all but the following currencies: Euro, Japanese Yen, Pound Sterling, Slovenian Tolar and U.S. Dollar. Is there an easy way to get full current rates without editing
~Library/Application Support/Calculator/FinancialRates.plist
by hand?

Apparently the server Calculator uses goes bonkers with some regularity. I was trying to update recently and getting nothing at all. Earlier this month I saw this thread:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=4008796&#4008796
So I followed Gulliver's advice that day and all the currencies updated normally. Haven't tried since. You might just keep checking it and see if it finally works correctly. Although the fact that trying removed other currencies sounds sort of ominous....

Currency Translation for Calculated Key figures

Hello Friends I want to use the Currency Translation for Calculated Key figures.
But when I go to Query and go to conversion tab it is always greyed out. Does that mean we can set the fixed conversion type for calculated key figures. like ZSAD Total debit - credit -flow value.
What is the way to do fixed currency translation in query for calculated key figures.
All the below is done now just want to specify this in query but I can'nt since it is greyed out.
All the below is done
I have created a Currency Translation Type " FiscperConversion" "ZVHGR" now this has Exchange Rate Type from Variable "ZVARN" (Which is a variable single value manual input on 0RTYPE Infoobject for exchange rate.)
2. Now Currency Tab: Target Currency is selected from Variable placed in the Report. ZRPVAR.
3. Now the Variable Time Reference is used. Standard Infoobject 0FISCPER
which is beginning of period.

Hi soniya
Your calculated KF is result of some calculation ...so system will not allow u to do any translation on it...to get CT on CKF you should do it on base key figure...still if you wish to do then you can create a formula variable having processing type a customer exit...write code in cmod to rad exchange rate and multiply ur CKF by this formula variable....
Thanks

Currency type in Calculator

Hi
I often use the calculator to convert between currencies and it works fine. I might add i use the swedish language.
Initially calculator displayed currencies in swedish, for instance it would say
"Svensk krona" instead of "Swedish krona"
but now my calculator displays all currencies in english and i cannot for my life figure out why it changed that.. does it have anything to do with formats when doing currency updates? Does anyone know how to change this?
Thanks

You can also edit the currency names by hand at
~/Library/Application Support/Calculator/FinancialRates.plist
and see also the post I'm about to make concerning the rate update feature being broken.

What are the things 10.6.8 update break?

After the 10.6.8 update I am having so many issues,
first, the %100 cpu usage of dock, disabled parallels, and now it is ok,
then, a reboot and I am unable to login, I enter my password, it begins the login process, then logs me out,
if I persist, it logs me in after a couple of tries, but each time a few of my applications are missing at random, and the environment is very very unstable, sometimes I see no desktop background, sometimes I start firefox and I am logged out again.
I've seen some people suggesting removal of login items to resolve a similar but not the same issue, so I'm inclined to think overall, there is an issue with some applications which 10.6.8 update breaks.
For starters my login items are:
GrowlHelper
Geektool
EyeTv Helper
Canon IJ Network scanner
ituneshelper
Magicprefs
Sophosuiserver
Does anyone have any problems with any of these?
I only verified the parallels desktop 6 issue up to now.
Model Name: MacBook Pro
Model Identifier: MacBookPro6,2
Processor Name: Intel Core i7
Processor Speed: 2.66 GHz
Number Of Processors: 1
Total Number Of Cores: 2
L2 Cache (per core): 256 KB
L3 Cache: 4 MB
Memory: 8 GB
Processor Interconnect Speed: 4.8 GT/s
Boot ROM Version: MBP61.0057.B0C
SMC Version (system): 1.58f15

Actually it is not-so-permitted to remove sophos for this machine, but I did it anyhow. No problem so far, but lack of evidence is not evidence of being lack of something so I am not adding it to the list yet

Why can I no longer use AirPlay with my Slingbox? New updates break complatibility?

Why can I no longer use AirPlay with my Slingbox? New updates break complatibility?

You already seem to know what the issue is, it is the parallax feature that was added to iOS 7. From your rant, it appears that your attempt to work around this was not successful. According to the Apple documents I've seen, they recommend that you enlarge your image (not reduce it). Make your image have excess space on all sides, which is not displayed on the screen. This way, when you tilt your device one direction or another, it can shift the image to give the appearance of 3D.
As a photographer, I like to use the full frame of my images, but I also know that I need to leave room around the image as well. I have some photos I have taken that I can't use because I have them cropped too tightly too, but I have others that work just fine. Just remember that part of the image file is "off screen" so that if iOS has to shift the image up it has some image that can scroll onto the screen. It needs this space on all sdes, so just make youre images larger, and keep in mind that a portion on each side will be outside the normally visible screen... If you don't like this feature, you can always go into the settigns and turn it off.

Mac OSX 10.4.8 Update Breaks Raid Striping -- System will no longer boot

Hi,
I'm a newbie from the PC world with a Mac Pro. For the last 8 hours I've been trying to get a Raid-0 configuration to work with no success.
The Raid array constructs ok and the system boots. Once that's done the Software Update screen arrives and I would select install all... then the machine would not boot. I get a Grey Shade like affect and the message to power off and restart. Powering off does nothing.
So I started again for the Nth time and added each Software Update individually. All loaded and rebooted successfully until the 10.4.8 Update.
As soon as that loads, installs and restarts the machine will not boot.
I called Apple's Tech Support and they told me they do NOT support RAID on this machine. I said what are you talking about. They put me on hold talked to a supervisor and came back with the same story. I just don't get it...
So anyone have any insight and advice on why the update breaks my Raid-0? What can I do to get over the problem (I'd like to have the RAID...)?
Thanks for the assistance.
Mac Pro Mac OS X (10.4.8)

Yes, you needed an emergency boot drive anyway to repair your RAID boot drive. Just use the same one in addition to a working clone or backup of your regular system.
Apple made it easy to install or update security updates and system updates from an alternate drive (but you will have to use the stand-alone (combo preferably) updaters instead - which many use already as normal part of upgrades for years now (they seem more useful and reliable).
My preference is a dedicated boot drive with OS and apps and minimal home directory - no media files - and fast, like 10K Raptor. I use RAID for my home directory so it isn't on the boot drive for years to improve performance and keep the OS separate. Never a problem and nice mix.

Group currency update problem

Hi FICO gurus
We have a problem of group currency update.
We have company code currency GBP and 2nd local currency activated (Group currency) also in GBP.
Now when we do postings in FI, some of the FI documents are not updating 2nd local currency amount (Group currency).
Hence while clearing the 2 or more line items in the same GL account we are having a problem of exchange rate fluctuations in group currency.
Does any one know why some of the documents are not updating group currency?
Do we need to really maintain OBA1 configuration (exchange rate derivation)?
Thanks for your reply
Mr GK

Does the ECCS ledger include group/ledger currency in the definition (CXL2)?
Another thing to check is that if the desired GC values are loade in before the translation. If so, the translation method can be changed to "do not translate" for certain items such as the P&L items. This way the values are not changed from the original ledger CAD values as a result of translation.

The latest Java update breaks some vital applications

The latest Java update breaks some vital applications. I have reverted back to 7u45. But now, every time a java applet is used, the "later", "block", "update" window appears and stops the applet from loading. I must have this older release. Oracle does not throughly test their updates. Note: the apps the update breaks are actually Oracle apps.
I have checked the "do not ask again until next relesse" box every single time. Worthless.
Is there a way to stop Java version checks? I even have the box deselected for check for updates; ignored by OS X. I WANT CONTROL! Stop checking!
Ideas?

We are facing the same issue. We suggested all out customers not to install the updates Java 7u65 or 8u11 until there is a workaround or fix.
The wrong look & feel is causing the following problems:
- Either icons or text can be display on a button. Currently the majority of buttons are displaying an icon. Therefore the workaround is to set the text at least.
- Scroll-bars are displayed within all cells of a table column. The circumstances are not clear when these scroll-bars are displayed.

Did OS X Mavericks v10.9.4 update break bluetooth audio for anyone else?

Did OS X Mavericks v10.9.4 update break bluetooth audio for anyone else?
I have a 2.4GHz Intel Core 2 duo MacMini from 2010, and I just updated to the latest OSX (10.9.4 (13E28)) and now bluetooth audio is broken.
I can pair my device (LG Tone+) to the mac, but no audio will play though it. I've rebooted the machine, reconnected the device after the update, restarted the browser, all with no results.
Typically, when I connect to the system I will get audio acknowledgements through the headset, "Power On" "Battery High" "Connected"
I still get those audio queues through the device. However when I open up a video on YouTube, or attempt to stream music on Spotify...nothing happens.
I've plugged wired headphones into the system and that works just fine. When I connect my Bluetooth headset, the audio to the wired headphones disconnects, so it seems like everything is behaving normally, except that no audio plays through the bluetooth headset.
Any ideas on where to go from here would be greatly appreciated. So, what do we think?

Try resetting the SMC.
