Currently Running Applications - How to identify them.

I'm trying to figure out how I can identify running applications.
I know if I -- for example -- minimize iTunes, I can see the iTunes icon on the end of my Dock. No problem there.
However while exploring I discovered the "Force Quit" menu item and when I clicked it, I could see that Photoshop and a number of other applications was running...but there were not showing up on the Dock.
Is there a way of knowing what applications are running, besides going to "Force Quit."

Hi Dr. Dave;
You might try depressing the control or apple key and "tab" at the same time. That should bring up a bar on your screen with icons for all of the open applications. If you release and depress the "tab" key you should cycle through all of you open applications. Whichever one is selected when you release the keys will be the application you will be in next.

  • How to get the trace file name for current running application?

    Hi, I want to know if it is possible to get the file name directly for current running application instance which is launched by javaws.
    There is a property "deployment.user.logdir" tells the log directory, it would be great if a file name property
    is available. something like "instance.trace.file".
    Our application wants it because we would like our client send use the application log by clicking a "send error"
    button, the codes finds the trace file and compress it and send it by using a smtp server.
    In 1.5, we can do it by using a shell program.

    I found other asked it before, but I tried to set both properties, but neither works. my sun JRE version :java version "1.6.0_04"
    <property
    name="deployment.javaws.traceFileName"
    value="abcfefsfdsf"/>
    <property
    name="deployment.javapi.trace.filename"
    value="235235235"/>
    But it always write to one trace file with name lik javaws63645.trace

  • How many types of Queues exists and how to identify them.

    Hello
    can anyone say How many types of Queues exists and how to identify them.
    What does R3R* and CSA* stands for.
    Regards,
    divya

    Hi Divya,
        The queues R3* and CSA* that you have specified are qRFC queues. qRFC queues are data queues which transport data to and fro different systems.
    There are also the tRFC queues which are triggered whenever you make RFC calls to connect to another system.
    Queues with prefix R3AD* - for delta download from R3->CRM
    Queues with prefix R3AU* - for data upload from CRM->R3
    Queues with prefix R3AR* - used to transfer data during request load from R3->CRM
    Queues with prefix R3AI* - for initial load from R3->CRM
    Queues with prefix CSA* - these are validation object specific queues used for processing/persisting data in CRM tables in a serialized manner. E.g. CSABUPA* for business partner,CSA_ORDER* for sales order etc.
    You can administer and monitor the queues in trax. SMQR,SMQS.
    Hope this helps you! Pls. do not forget to reward me some points.

  • How to identify the missing reecords once load was performed

    hi experts
    if  load was performed and we found some missing records are there how to identify them and how to populate them again. if the records are only few we can manually find them and selecting and info package level in data selection we can send them but if they are millions of records how to identify them and how to solve this kind of issue.
    is there any solution for this apart from data reconsillation
    thanks in advance

    Hi,
    Generally who is accessing the reports(End users) , those only can findout that if any data is missing in the data load and showing any wrong data.
    They will know and compare the data in R/3 inform to BW team , what they got wrong data insted of Original data.
    According to that we need to Analyse the data flow BW >>> R/3 -( Top to bottom we need to check all the data targets by giving the missing values)
    To see the contents we use the T.code is : LISTCUBE ( Here you can see the content and request IDs and source) , according to the we need to analys and find , whether problem is occured
    LIST CUBE : To see the contents of data targets in BW side
    In the below cases data will show wrong in the reports
    1. If the data was not loaded into BW side.
    2. Even if the data is loaded into BW side, Some times Due to the incorrect rotines/update rules the data might be showing wrong in the reports.
    3. If any issue with varibles/ C.KF's/ R.K.Fs used in the reports, the data will show wrong due wrong calculation.
    4. if any wrong selection in the varibles also will show Wrong data.
    So, we need to analys all these things and compare with R/3 data,
    First we need to check the data in BW Intial load data target by comparing the R/3 data source with extract checker (RSA3)
    RSA3 : Extract checker in R/3 side
    in some cases, you need to check the data base tables if the datasource is Generic
    RSO2 (T.code) - To display Generic data source and findout the tables.
    After Analysis, if you find out that if any data is missing from the source system , you need to run Repair Full request, which is not effect previous delta
    Repair full request :
    Go to info package :>> setting as Full insted of delta
    change the setting in menu >> Check mark for repaire full request
    Selection : Give the selection for missing record in the infopackage in selection Tab
    After this you will get the as per your selections, without distrubing your delta load >> next you can run your delta load as usal
    I hope it may help you to analys the issue.
    Regards.

  • Auto run applications

    Hi ,
    When turn my mac on a few apps like Microsoft word immediately run .
    How can shut them down   

    Managing Mac OS X Lion's application resume feature
    Disable Lion’s Resume Checkbox When Shutting Down [Video How-To] | Cult of Mac
    Dealing With The Resume Feature of Lion
    Managing Mac OS X Lion's application resume feature.
    If you shutdown your computer you should get a dialog asking if you want applications to resume on the next startup. Simply uncheck the box to prevent that from occurring. Open General preferences and uncheck the option to Restore windows when quitting and re-opening apps. You can also install a third-party utility to control resume features on individual applications: RestoreMeNot or Application State Cleaner.
    It is possible to completely stop the Resume feature although I'm unconvinced that it is that annoying. Nevertheless see the following:
    If you have not yet done so you must first make your /Home/Library/ folder visible. Open the Terminal application in the Utilities folder. At the prompt paste the following command line:
    chflags nohidden ~/Library
    Press RETURN. Quit the Terminal application.
    In the Finder navigate to the /Home/Library/Saved Application State/ folder. Delete the contents of the folder. Back up to the /Home/Library/ folder. Select the Saved Application State folder. Press COMMAND-I to open the Get Info window. In the Sharing and Permissions panel at the bottom click on the lock icon and authenticate. Set each of the listed entries to Read Only. Close the Get Info window.
    Quit all open programs except the Finder (this is very important.) Next, navigate to the /Home/Library/Preferences/ByHost/ folder. Look for a .plist file with "com.apple.loginwindow." in the file name followed by some numbers in hexadecimal. Select the file. Press COMMAND-I to open the Get Info window and in the Sharing and Permissions panel click on the lock icon and authenticate. Set each of the listed entries to Read Only. Close the Get Info window. If you also find a file with the same filename but with a last extension of ".lockfile," then you should delete it.
    The above should eliminate the Resume feature system-wide. Note that any future system updates or upgrades will likely undo these changes. You will then need to repeat this procedure assuming there are no major changes in OS X related to it.

  • How to identify manual journal entries

    Hello,
    In the GL tables, GL headers and GL Lines, how can we identify if a journal entry is an automated entry or a manual entry.
    That is, entries can be made into the General ledger through Interface programs or other import methods. We describe them as Automated.
    And if journal entries are made directly into the GL, how to identify them against the automated ones.
    I need to know from a backend perspective, i.e which column in which GL table specifies if an entry is a manual or an automated journal entry.
    For Ex: In the GL_JE_Headers table, the JE_Source and the JE_Category mentions from where the source is.
    Like, JE_Source is Payables and Je_Category can be Purchase Invoices or Payments.
    Looking at the above line, we can identify that this is an automated entry from Payables.
    How to identify the manual entries.
    Your help is greatly appreciated.
    Thank you
    Bob

    Hi Bob,
    In the GL_JE_HEADERS table, column JE_SOURCE would have value as "MANUAL", this indicates that journal is created manually in General Ledger module and not imported from subledgers ....There is no indicative column for us to identify whether it is Automatic or Manual .... values such as MANUAL and RECURRING indicates entries that were created directly in General Ledger Module...
    Also in the GL_JE_LINES table, for GL_SL_LINK_ID and GL_SL_LINK_TABLE coumns, the column values would be NULL/Blank, since these columns normally contains reference to the base transaction in the subledger ....for a manual transaction there wont be a reference to subledger, hence they would remain as blank ..

    Hi....
    probably it's a unusual solution but you could try it....
    Create a *.bat file   call it test.bat .. Create it on your local machine or on your server folder..
    PARAMETERS: DOSCMD(30) DEFAULT 'c:\test.bat' LOWER CASE.
    call function 'GUI_EXEC'
      exporting
        command          = DOSCMD.
    Inside your test.bat file put this code..(it's a dos command to create a txt file containing the output  of tasklist.exe command
    tasklist > c:\test.txt
    In your test.txt file you will have a list of tasks running on windows...
    Hope to help...

  • How to get Application name of a current running process in LiveCycle??

    Hi,
    I want to get the Application name of current running process in LiveCycle as a output value.
    I have 3 applictions, the 3 applications are calling same SubProcess, so I want get the name of the application from which the sub process has been called.
    I want to retrieve the Application name and asssign this value to a output variable.
    I have searched for the solution I found a method getApplicationName() but inorder to get the current running process's Application Name this might not be useful..
    So suggest the way to resolve this..
    Thanks in Advance.....

    Use an input/output string variable in the subprocess and set its value in each calling process as respective Application name.

  • How to detect which applications that are currently running

    Hi there. Is there a way to detect which applications that are currently running on my machine? Is there a class that can get all of the running applications, you know, like the taskmanager.
    //peter

    What you are asking for is indeed not possible through "100% Pure Java," because each operating system that runs Java Virtual Machines can handle the running processes differently (think about the differences between a process scheduler for, say, Windows NT and your Palm Pilot, both of which could have a JVM running).
    That means there are essentially 2 avenues to persue for this:
    1. Use an external "user-level" command (like ps on a UNIX-like OS) and parse the results (this is what people are referring to when they say "Runtime.exec()". There have been some nice exec() frameworks posted around here before, so I'd recommend searching around a bit for more info.
    I also found this link (from Google) which apparently shows the javadocs where someone has attempted something similarly on the Linux platform before...that's all I know about it:
    http://www.cougaar.org/software/9.2/javadoc/api/org/cougaar/tools/server/system/linux/LinuxProcessStatusReader.html
    2. Use a JNI (Java Native Interface) call to an externally provided C function to get the info you need. Here's a link to the Java 1.4 JNI information:
    http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4/docs/guide/jni/
    Hope this helps! (But it's not going to be a quick and easy problem to work with)...

  • How to identify the environment (database) Apex is running on?

    Hi
    We are going to have 3 environments here: Development, Test and Production (separate databases/servers for each one). As usual, the development process will move applications from Dev -> Test -> Prod.
    On my Apex 3 applications, I would like to visually identify, in some way, to which environment I am currently connected. For instance, displaying the name of the environment on the page header.
    My problem is how to identify what environment Apex is running on. Is there any Apex instance-level property where I can set a string and display it in my applications? Or something like that?
    What is the best way to achieve this? Any suggestions welcome.
    Thanks,
    Luis

    Luis,
    another option is to check the http environment to get this information.
    This is what we use in one of our applications:
       FUNCTION get_environment
          RETURN VARCHAR2
       IS
       BEGIN
          IF LOWER (OWA_UTIL.get_cgi_env ('SERVER_NAME')) IN
                          ('development.opal-consulting.de')
          THEN
             RETURN c_development;
          ELSIF LOWER (OWA_UTIL.get_cgi_env ('SERVER_NAME')) =
                                                       'test.opal-consulting.de'
          THEN
             RETURN c_test;
          ELSE
             RETURN c_production;
          END IF;
       END;Unfortunately, this doesn't work with Oracle XE, thus you might be better off checking the value of: OWA_UTIL.get_cgi_env ('HTTP_HOST')
    Anyway, I would also rather suggest using the table based approach, I use it in most applications now. This way you are more flexible. You can simulate all different settings in the same schema. Also, you can install development and test in the same database.
    Regards,
    ~Dietmar.
