Default application and project directories

I have downloaded JDeveloper's technical preview edition (11.1.1.0.0).
Is there a way to configure the default location of Application content (projects, sources and resources) ? i.e. JDev currently creates applications under C:\JDeveloper. I want this to be under D:\<jdev_installed_dir>\.
Thanks,

Stuart,
You are an absolute god. You have no idea how long I've beens searching for a fix to this problem. I run an entire company on OS X Server home folder accounts - about 60 employees - and after updating to Lion Server, everything was perfect except for this. I've tested on my test account and have had complete success. I am now running it with one user to start and will deploy it fully if no problems arise.
Thank you so much!
Do you mind if I write a blog post on AnsonAlex.com to publicize this fix a little better?

Difference between "Application" and "Project" in jdeveloper IDE.

I am not sure how to organize the developement environment in jdeveloper. Basically, I am trying to figure out the difference between the "Application" and "Project". I understand that each "Application" can have one-to-many "Projects", but I am still confused as to when to use a new "Application" or when to use a new "Project" within same Application.
regards
Jatin

Hi Jatin
Application is something like workspace. Within one application you can have many different projects but you can access something from one project in another project.
The typical approach is to make one project to define the model and another one or two projects within the same aplication with view accesing the model. you cannot access
the project with model in another workspace (application).

How to properly partition separate Root, Applications, and Users volumes?

Wondering if there's an official Apple recommended method to set Applications and Users directories on different physical Volumes (be it a separate partition or separate physical drive).
The bottom of this Apple document alludes to this by stating, "Divide hard disk space into partitions and then, for example, keep your applications in one section and your documents in another."
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.5/en/8769.html
I'd like to do this, but there seems to be issues with symbolic linking from some of the solutions out there. Not sure if Apple has a sanctioned method that won't be incompatible with some Applications and/or future upgrades.
Thanks in advance for anybody's insight.

ArborWoody,
The concept of using separate volumes and/or drives to store system, HOME folders, applications, and even swap files separately has been debated, tested, then debated some more time and time again for many years. The findings are that, without doubt and in all realistic cases, jumping through convoluted hoops doesn't get you anything. Nothing at all.
Given the lack of any real benefit, plus the complexity of making the attempt, to do so is folly. The best advice we could give you would be to forget all about doing this, or in fact doing anything but keeping things just as they are in the default configuration of OS X.
Notice, however, that one thing I mentioned above is "HOME folders." I specifically did not mention "user data." While one's HOME folder typically contains user data, the two things are not the same. In very many cases, it is in fact beneficial to store certain types of user data on a second volume or drive. What type of data, and where it would be best to store that data, would be determined entirely by one's workflow environment and the uses to which that data will be put.
It could be that a striped RAID array is the solution that would work best for you. Or, you may instead be best served by using a mirrored RAID array. In some cases, external storage is best. In others, not so much.
One of the important issues you mention is facilitation of backup and recovery. Absolutely! The answer is Time Machine. Or, perhaps Time Machine and the maintenance of a "clone" (not something I do, but popular nonetheless). But what does Time Machine do for us? Simple. It is designed to allow us to quickly and easily recover from potential disaster, up to and including the loss of a startup drive or even an entire machine (this second possibility assumes that the TM backup is stored externally or on a safe drive, of course).
What can we do to enable Time Machine to do its job most effectively? This, too, is pretty simple. Just keep our startup volume as "slim" as we can. Not by moving HOME folders or applications, but by common-sense file management, tailored to the specific usage to which this machine is dedicated. Perhaps more importantly, more pertinent to this thread, moving one's applications or HOME folders off the startup volume actually interferes with Time Machine's ability to do its job. For an example of the effects of this interference, just take a look at this fun thread.

Setting default application

when I'm trying to open up a document or something it says something like "There is no default application specified to open the document (name of document)" . How do you set a default application and what should I set it to?
I have an iMac version 10.4.8

Tell me some of the names of these programs. What are the 3 letter suffixes (after the .)?
Examples: .sit opens with Stuffit Expander, .xls = Excel, .mov = Quicktime Player etc.
Most games run by themselves after you've installed them
Are these Mac games you've downloaded? Files ending .exe are Windows programs & require Windows XP SP2 to be installed through Bootcamp.

Can you remove some of the Default applications

I want to give an iPod Touch to my mother who is technically challenged and doesn't have WiFi.
I only want the iPod functionality, not the browsers, email, maps, or any other feature.
Is there a way to disable or remove default apps that you don't want?
ps: I do not want an iPod classic., it''s interface is harder to learn than the touch.

I too would like to remove some of the default apps. Personally, I find the YouTube, Stocks, and Maps, useless to me and its just a waste of icon space. And whats with the "The touch may not be for you". Seriously, if someone wants a touch but doesn't want some of the default apps, that doesn't mean the touch is not for someone. I think it would be a smart move for Apple to revise the iPod (and iPhone, if people can't remove default apps on there) so that we may remove the default apps that we don't use. It makes absolutely no sense to just "move" the app to the back if we don't even use the app. That's like saying "you may not have any use for this app, but its here because we want to force you to keep the junk we give you". And it sounds a lot like a Microsoft move for the all the Windows operating systems they have released (up to Vista, so far) forcing Internet Explorer on all its users and not allowing us to remove it because it was integrated into the Operating System. Supposedly, Microsoft is growing up and letting the user to actually disable (maybe even remove) Internet Explorer in the upcoming Windows 7. What about Mac OS X, does it force Safari on its users, like its forcing some of these unnecessary apps onto the iPod Touch? I wouldn't don't know, I don't earn quite enough money to buy myself an iMac or MacBook (and I've even heard from several people that its more expensive to get a gaming Mac than a gaming PC with similar hardware configuration). Only Apple product I own so far is an iPod Touch.
But I will give Anna credit. Anna at least answered the question.
The question was "Can you remove some of the default applications" and a response saying "What is your mother going to use it for? Maybe the Touch is not the right device for her." by "D'Fish'N'Seas" does not answer the question at all. The question has nothing to do with what the mother is going to use the iPod for, so don't post a response like that, its one of the reasons that causes short tempered people to flame other people.
Ok, so since Anna answered the question that Ron asked. I have a question related to this topic, and if Ron is still wanting to remove some default apps, I'm sure he would like an answer to the question too. So, here is my question: Has anyone developed an app that would allow us to remove the default apps, or a tool that will guide us in removing some default apps?
And preferably the app or tool be in the most legal possible way. Wouldn't want to ask for something that is illegal.

"change all" unavailable to change default application

I've been irritated that Preview constantly wants to open all of my image and PDF files. I've had to manually change the default application for each individual file (not fun when I have hundreds, possibly thousands of these files). I did a search to see how I could select Adobe Photoshop and Acrobat as my default applications, and discovered that there is supposed to be a "change all" option available for the "get info" window. I do not have this option at all.
I did the obvious things: I selected "other" under the "get info" dialog, and the application I wanted the files to default to. "Change all" did not appear. I tried the forum's advice and reset my launch services, to no avail. I've tried Disk Repair, and still the same issue.
I'm running 10.4.8 on a Dual 2Ghz G5 (pre-Intel), and Adobe Photoshop CS2 (9.0.2) and Acrobat 7.0.8. Also, the version of Preview I have is 3.0.8.
G5 Mac OS X (10.4.8)

Change All is a clickable button that should appear below the drop down menu from which you select the desired application. If the button does not appear then perhaps you have a corrupted installation of OS X and should consider doing a fresh installation.
In addition to doing Disk Repair your should also Repair Permissions.
As an alternative you can download a freeware preference pane called RCDefaultApp which is used to set associations for applications and many other defaults. You will find it at www.versiontracker.com or www.macupdate.com.

Acrobat Pro 11 - How to suppress default application pop-up

We've got the Creative Cloud desktop apps license, so I used the creative cloud packager to build an Acrobat Pro Package. I just deployed the pkg to a test Mac OS X system with no problems. Since this is for a school computer lab environment I need to suppress the pop-up box that says "Adobe Acrobat Pro is not the currently configured to be the default application for PDF Files. Would you like to make PDF files open with Adobe Acrobat Pro instead of Preview?" (See below). I do not want to change the default application, and most importantly I do not want users presented with this pop-up. I combed through the com.adobe.Acrobat.Pro.plist file in ~/Library/Preferences and nothing's jumping out at me. I've read through a lot of the documentation on this site and can't seem to find a list of all of the keys, sorry if I'm missing something obvious, and thank you for any help.

That is an OS setting not an application setting. There are utilities that can help you do this but you probably will need to write a she'll script to do it. This link might help explain what needs to happen but you will need to create/write the script on your own.

a) File Open...
Select a file.
PROBLEM 1: File is opened, but is not automatically added to project and I am also not prompted with the 'Add Project Source Path' dialog.
b) Attempt to drag/drop file onto VTFclean project
Get 'Add Project Source Path' Dialog
The project source path must be updated in order to add the selected file or files.
Do you want to update the project source path? Yes

Problem 3: JDeveloper hangs whether initial project was based on 9.0.5.x or 10.1.2.x
Questions:
==========
1) Am I missing something obvious or are these simply bugs?
2) Is there a particular reason why there is no reference to JDeveloper 10.1.2 on the http://jdeveloper.us.oracle.com website?
3) Why were the 'Add to Applications...' and 'Add to Project...' buttons removed from the 'Applications - Navigator'?
I found them very helpful and used them to add items to existing Applications and Projects.
I have duplicated these problems on two different Windows XP systems. Neither JDeveloper 10.1.2 or 9.0.5 builds have exhibited these problems.

Hi Shay,
This dynamic project source feature is going to kill us! We have more than 15,000 files in our projects. Currently, part of them are managed by JDeveloper. Developers have option to load only the files they are working on. If all files in the project source will be loaded automatically, that will definitely be a nightmare to us. The JDeveloper will be frozen from time to time when it start to looking for new files...
Think about why people pick Oracle instead of SQL Server - Oracle is good in handling large data. We, JDeveloper users, sincerely hope JDeveloper team can design/test the JDeveloper on large scaled project before formally release it.
Thanks for your hard work though.

Xdg (or Gnome 3) default applications

I want to change the default applications for certain files as determined by xdg, in this case under cinnamon/gnome 3 but I want it to apply across all DEs implementing freedesktop.org standards.
I have emacs and gvim installed. They both have .desktop files in /usr/share/applications/ which specify their mimetype associations. I happen to have installed emacs after vim, and now I have /usr/share/applications/mimeinfo.cache which seems to be generated from the other files, with lines like, for example:
text/plain=emacs.desktop;gvim.desktop;
Which I assume causes emacs to be selected as the default plain text editor (as indeed it is by xdg-mime query default text/plain shows).
I have three questions:
1. How can I change the default text editor without editing mimeinfo.cache (I assume it is auto-(re)generated) and without removing emacs' mime types (which are correct and should stay)?
2. How do I regenerate mimeinfo.cache?
3. Is there a GUI that allows me to do this stuff (ideally without having to find a file of a particular type to open first - I have tried in Gnome 3: 'System Settings > Details > Default Applications' and there are only a few default 'application types' there, not mime types, and none of them is text editor)?

With reference to: http://standards.freedesktop.org/deskto … 01s07.html
In answer to 1:
It seems the preferences are handled 'externally', and although it doesn't make it clear where it seems to be in /usr/share/applications/defaults.list, I edited min
[Default Applications]
x-scheme-handler/spotify=spotify.desktop
text/plain=gvim.desktop
(in answer to 2:)
I then ran 'sudo update-desktop-database'
And now:
$ xdg-mime query default text/plain
gvim.desktop emacs.desktop
But I'm still interested in the answer to 3, in particular a tool that would change groups of supported mime types and allow you to pick and choose from the lists defined per applications would be useful...

Default application settings loses on restart or LaunchServices problem?

Hello,
Problem:
After doing this tutorial:http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1428. I have a problem with default application settings (file association). In other words, file function "Open with" is empty. I chose default app for specific file type, do function "change all" (or just start specific application) and everything works fine. Files are associated whit that app. But after restar (or shutdown) every association is reset to none (open whit also empty). FileVault is off.
So after restart I must to associate files whit programs manual, or launch all programs.
What I tried:
Deleting com.apple.LaunchServices.plist - no help
Script run in Terminal: /System/Library/Frameworks/CoreServices.framework/Versions/A/Frameworks/LaunchS ervices.framework/Versions/A/Support/lsregister -kill -seed - works, restores default applications and Open with list (but only till restart)
Onyx app - no help
MAINTENANCE app- works after first restart, after second restart the same problem
RCDefaultApp app- no help
Please any advice?

Here is output:

none

Won't open files with default application

When I try to open a file it opens preview instead of the default application and does not actually open the file! I have tried changing the default application but it does not help. How can I fix this?

Hello,
Try dragging & dropping the file on the Application's icon that you want to open it with for a test.
Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions...
Reset Launch Services...
http://www.thexlab.com/faqs/resetlaunchservices.html#Anchor-Reset-47857
Reboot.

PPro CS4 and CS5 installed and Windows 7 default launch from project dbl-click is...CS4?

This is sort of a curious one. I have to keep CS4 installed to edit Camtasia files as their codec is a 32 bit no-go with 64 bit CS5...
Oddly, when I double-click any PPro project (most were created in CS5), they will launch CS4, not CS5. When i go into properties and attempt to link a different application as the default for this project type, I browse to PPro CS5's executable and choose it, but end up back in the "Open with" dialog which again, only shows PPro CS4 as an option.
Oddness... anybody else seeing this? I just launch CS5 from it's shortcut and it loads whatever I want without an issue, but I still double click without thinking 3-5 times a week and have to back out...It's an annoyance.

Tim,
Are you comfortable wading around in the Windows registry? If so, you can probably fix this with a quick digit change:
In the Registry Editor (launch regedit from the Run dialog), find the following key: Computer\HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Adobe.Premiere.Pro.Project\shell\open\command.
Once you select the "command" key, you'll see the program destination string on the right side; likely it's pointing to CS4. Double-click the "(Default)" string and change the value to to following, exactly as pasted here:
"C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Premiere Pro CS5\Adobe Premiere Pro.exe" "%1"
That's with the outside quotes and everything. OK the change, and you may or may not need a system restart, but that should correct the issue. Basically the file extension (in this case, .PRPROJ) is associated with a class (Adobe.Premiere.Pro.Project), and that class points to default application. Once that's fixed up, the chain should be put back together.
Also, there is another key in: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Adobe.Premiere.Pro.Project\shell\open\command. Changing the above should change this as well, but you may want to check it.

PDF opens in browser and not default application

When i click on a pdf file in a document library, it opens in the same web page instead of Adobe reader. I've set the feature of open documents in default application but in vain.
Any thoughts?
Thanks a lot in advance

Hi,
From your description, I know you want to open SharePoint 2013 PDF files with default application.
You could re-install your Adobe Reader, and then test this issue. Also, you can have test in another computer with Adobe Reader.
If this issue is still exist, please refer to this article:

An .exe application is for Windows so you can't use it on a Mac. Have you got the install discs? If so, try running Disk Utility from it and also, repair permissions in Disk Utility on the computer before you use the install disc. The best thing would be for you to perform an Archive and Install to clean things up.
Let us know how you make out,
