Hi Sumit,
Check out your Interner Explorer settings, it happens sometime if your secutiry setting are kept high.
Change the Privacy setting to Medium or Low.
Thanks,

TS3274 Email display problem: My email only display the list of emails and a preview (first two lines of the body of the mail). If one click on the message it only shows the heading on the right hand side of the screen, but not the content.

My email only display the list of mails in my in box with a preview of the first two lines of the body of the message. When one clicks on the message to open it, only the header is displayed in the right hand side of the screen - the actual message is missing. This happens on older mail previously downloaded that use to work properly as well. Any idea how to fix this?

Try closing the Mail app completely and see if it works properly when you re-open the app : from the home screen (i.e. not with the Mail app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Mail app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
If that doesn't work also do a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

How to display a particular transaction over portal as per its id

hi
we have a requirement like this...
we have already developed some 200 iviews and the corrosponding pages...
now we want to develope an application either in web dynpro or pdk that we will upload over portal. that application will be having an inputfield for entering transaction number and a search button.
on the click of button our application must be able to search and display the corrosponding transactional iview already developed
plz guide on how this is possible

Hi,
I don't think message input text allows to set URI property and it is available with MessageStyledText.
So if you want to achieve your requirement then you can take two items one message text input and other one as messageStylesText then if it is readonlymode then hide input text and render MessageStyled text and viceversa.
In this case you will be able to display links in case of Readonly text.

Is it possible to display the transaction in display mode in portal?

Hi All,
I have created one transaction iview in portal say for eg: SE38.
i want to display this transaction in portal only in display mode so that users cannot edit/modify.
I checked with giving "Read" permission in portl to that iview. even though the user is able to change.
is this possible for the particular transaction to display only in display mode not as editable mode in portal?
Thanks,
vijaya.

Hi Vijaya,
Ask your basis team to create two user on R/3 system
1st with edit permission to that Tcode eg - SE38
2nd with only view permission to that tcode eg - SE38
Now will doing, user mapping in user administrator in portal
set 1st userid /password to whom u have to give edit permission for that Tcode and set 2nd userid /password to portal user whom u want to just have read access for that tcode...
Hope this solves ur problem...
Please reward Points if helpfull.
Thanks

Windows 7 64 bit on iMac display problems and instability

I received my iMac 27" quad core with 8 gig ram & 2 x 1 TB hard drives last Friday. I'm using Boot Camp to run windows 7 64 bit on maximum 2560 x 1440 screen resolution.
I get intermittent but often display problems in windows 7. I get areas of the screen covered in little yellow dots or blue squares (never red artefacts.) This will happen at random areas of the screen, inside an open window, around borders of windows and so on. Most often the screen will go black and come back with a message in the bottom right corner of the screen saying 'Display driver has stopped responding and has recovered' with the sub message saying 'display driver ATI radeon family stopped....etc'. Sometimes I lose the screen wallpaper. Once I've had the system just shut down, once I've had Photoshop seize up and I had to do a cold reboot. Could this be an overheating problem or resolution too high problem or driver problem? Windows 7 tells me my drivers are up to date. I tried installing the drivers for the card from ATI's website which made no difference
The reason I bought a Mac is because it's the only effective way to code for the Mac family of OS's in XCode. The reason I didn't just attach a miniMac to my PC monitor was because there's rather a lot of advertising by Apple about the fact that you can use a Mac with a PC OS via Apple's own Boot Camp. Now I have a lot of Windows software (some of which is not available for the Mac or requires buying again) sitting on an unstable system. Any ideas would be much appreciated...

Sorry, that thread got moved for edit and as a user tip... which I didn't want and won't be doing....
Here is the post:
A tip and workaround for how to get ATI mobility/laptop drivers so that Windows no longer thinks the ATI is a desktop card:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=11286987
Summary (my own edit steps):
1. Install Boot Camp 3.0 and upgrade to 3.1
2. Uninstall graphic drivers and run Driver Sweeper
http://www.guru3d.com/category/driversweeper/
instead of:
removing the crashing driver by going into windows 7 setup via its install cd and deleting the ati driver manaully
3. Install ATI Mobility (link)
4. Uninstall ATI (Programs control panel?) Device Manager (rollback; uninstall?)
5. Device Nanager: update driver and BROWSE BACK to 8.681 (the original apple driver that was causing freezes and purple artifacts) - navigate to /Apple/Drivers/ATI
(Apple uses) a 4850 card in the iMac, its modified a bit for apple. Enough that desktop drivers don't work, and modded-for-laptop desktop drivers don't work either.
Now the upshot of using modified drivers is that it FORCES the catalyst control panel to be installed, meaning you get a few more options to mess around with the card.
I couldn't use the original apple drive, it locks up, the newer one had banding, the newer radeon drivers direct form ATI wouldn't work until they were modded and then they cause black screens.
SO the solution, as obscure as it was, was to download ACTUAL mobility Radeon drivers - version 10.3 still, but made for laptops.
http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownload/Pages/index.aspx
THESE drivers I was able to install - and here is where things changed.
THIS driver changed they way windows saw the video card in device manager.
As I mentioned before, its NOT a desktop card, its a modified laptop card, but installing mac drivers makes windows THINK its a full desktop card, and running the original 8.681 driver crashed it.
Once installed 10.3 LAPTOP driver it now appeared in device manager as a MOBILITY card.
+These Steps "should" work:+
delete ATI driver manually
reinstall apple driver after that and see if that works,
otherwise try the steps above
(mod drivers, remove via windows recovery off setup disk, install laptop drivers, reinstall apple driver over it)

Problem in Date format display at table leve in 3.1i System

Hi Team,
I am facing an issue in 3.1i Prod System.
When i go and check at SE16 transaction and table name is TCURR. Execute the same i am getting date displayed in an unknown format.
For Eg:
Valid From Date
79908769
When i double click the same record, it displays the correct date format:
12/30/2009
when i download the table contents into excel sheet it should display the correct date format: instead of 79908769 to 12/30/2009.
But my problem is either to display the proper format of date at the table level.
Is there anyway to download the contents in correct dated format without disturbing the data elements or domain at table level.
Please let me know how to solve this problem.
Thanks,
Sunil Kumar

You need to write abap program to download into the required format.
once you get the date field in your work area...
say you have date field in wa_data-budat , after that use the above syntax you will get the required format.
DATA :
v_date type sy-datum.
write wa_data-budat to v_date MM/DD/YYYY.
Please let me know if you need further information.

BEx Web iView displays graph only after page Refresh

Dear Friends,
I am facing problem in BEx Web application iView.
I am using the SAP Standard BEx Web iView template to call BI Report by passing parameter as below
com.sap.ip.bi.bex?TEMPLATE=ZSD1_WR_TREND_HY
URL is Link[http://<hostname>:52000/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/pcd!3aportal_content!2fcom.sap.pct!2fplatform_add_ons!2fcom.sap.ip.bi!2fiViews!2fcom.sap.ip.bi.bex?TEMPLATE=ZSD1_WR_TREND_HY]
The report got 2 graphical representations along with a table data.
Problem is the graphs displays data representation only after refreshing the page.
Infact the problem exists in production system and works fine in Development system.
When I checked from portal prospective I found no difference.
Can anybody help on this.
Thanks in advance.
Lakshmikantha

hi,
find the iview from the content administration menu in portal.
If you are using a standard role open the role
and trace the pages until you find the iview containing the template.
Open the iview and check the parameter Content-BW report.
At the field BEx Web Application Query String go to and and check the template name.
Go to web application designer and open the above template.
Change the parameters from the post above and save the web template as zXXXXX.
Change the web template at iview as well.
What i figured out is that bex handler has a problem creating an array when you are using same session for more than one charts.
When you use seperate sessions for each chart there is no need for array creation and works just fine.
*If you are using best practices go to Content Provided by SAP->Specialist->Best Practices and find the role and iview you are using.
It should work..

Netweaver content area display problem

Hi guys,
I have installed NW 07 at a local system. Earlier it was working fine .but from few days I am facing a very strange problem at various netweaver components screens :
1) Login in to netweaver administration through browser opens a very distorted HTML , instead of usual admin page .Although the content of page is same as the standard administration page.but the display is distorted.
2) Same problem of 'distorted display' is coming with SLD home page. but the SLD admin page is looking fine.
3) Similar problem in portal for various iview creation templates , user admin(Identity management) page.
I am getting this problem at few machines, but its working fine in some other machines.
Is the problem machin specific? I had tried the login at 10 machines in same domain . among which it has given problem with 4 machines.
please suggest the solution
regards
Poonam
Edited by: poonam sharma on Jun 19, 2008 3:18 PM

Hi Poonam,
This kind of problem will come when the theme is not reflected.
Are you using any custom webdynpro theme. If theme is not active with the proper url in Visual Administrator then the UI elements which are related to webdynpro will appear as distorted.
Please check the webdynpro theme entry in Visual Administrator under following path
Open Visual Administrator > Expand the Services Node > Click on Configuration Adapter > right pane blick Display Configuration > Expand the tree structure > Expand the WebDynpro > Expand Local Node >then select property sheet theme. Here check whether some theme entry is there? .By default without any entry will take the default webdynpro theme.
Try with this .Same kind problem earlier we also faced where we got solution on making the proper entry in the input field.
Hope it will help you.
Reward the points ....
Cheers,
Rudradev Devulapalli

Problem in transaction iView

We have a transaction iView (SAP GUI For HTML) .When we click on the relevant link in the portal that transaction iView is displayed. For a particular field in that transaction if we click on the folder tab besides the field then a pop up window is appearing from where we have to select some values but in the portal we find some extra u201C0u201D padding before that values.But if we check that particular transaction in the GUI then values are displayed correctly(without u201C0u201D padding before the values).
We have used ITS(Internet Transaction Server) which communicates between SAP GUI and Portal.
Please give your suggestion how do I check the application which is displayed in the Portal. Displayed application sceen is different than the SAP GUI transaction screen. I think the displayed screen is BSP application.
Any suggestion?

Hello Shuvrajyoti,
Could you please check the BSP application.
BSP application contain html code and the extra '0' could be a typo in the code.
Awaiting Reply.

Wierd lines on my display and frequent lock-ups w/ and w/o display problems

When booting I sometimes get weird lines and blocks on my display (the GRAY Apple screen) and then it hangs, other times the computer will boot and run fine for 20-30 minutes and then the display goes wonkers with blocks and lines and the computer does not respond. The only way I can get it to boot is to reset the PRAM by letting it CHIME 3x and then occasionally it will boot without issue and run, while other times I still get the blocks and lines on the display.
When I am able to get it to recover and re-boot after the lock-up and display problems and occasionally the box in the middle asking me to re-boot similar to a kernel panic the OPS gives me the option to REPORT the error and here is the error for others who would know more...
Thank you in advance,
Darren

Anyone know what is causing my problems? I thought it was heat so I downloaded a CPU and FAN temperature monitor and the CPU was getting VERY HOT at first so I then ramped-up the CPU FAN SPEED to maximum - it turns out the CPU FAN was not rotating well at low speed - since then I have cleaned and checked the fans and they all work as they should and blow on high(er) when the CPU temperature is above a certain level.

S.U.
Is there a kb article or something that would illuminate what to look for in these logs, or is it a matter of learning by osmosis?
Both. I am not skilled in reading logs. It is a very technical and time consuming task for the uninitiated (me!) In scanning a log I look for the backtrace and loading dependencies. The first item in the backtrace is usually the roadblock.
Beyond that you can look at the Technical Note TN2063: Understanding and Debugging Kernel Panics
Should make for good bedtime reading. Puts you right to sleep.

My original post, locked by this forum. Display problem related

Hi G5 Gurus,
The display problem first, we all know when screen savers display, a click on the mouse will bring you back to the active desktop, this was how it worked., but now, sometimes a click cause the G5 to sleep!
As for the sleep, I dare not to put it to sleep these days, because I am afriad it may cause a fire by over heating. Sometmes, actually four times in the past few months, my G5 could wake up by itself, followed by a extrem high speed running of the cooling fan, it sounded like a hair dryer running in the same room. Sometimes the sreen could light up, just like real wake up, sometimes, it was black. No clicks the mouse or keyboeard could bring it back to normal, I had to press and hold the power button to turn it off.
This crazy problem happened for the first time last summer, a dead hard disk was the cost. Apple replaced it, but failed to detect the cooling or power or display problem. I was given one month extended free service, but right after its end, the problem was back and happened even more often.
Please let me know if any of you had the same problem and please advise what to do.
100s Gs of thanks.

I have the EXACT same problem. In fact, I could not have described it better myself. What gives? I brought it in to the "genius" bar and they repolaced the power supply free of charge but the problem is still there. I noticed they ordered a new logic board but did not end up replacing it after all. Did you have yours replaced and did it work? Is this a known issue?

Hi La teller,
Thank you for your reply. The 'genius' here in London only replace the dead hard disk, which I belive was a victim of this problem. I was told they couldn't find anything wrong with the power supply or the cooling system.
Now at lest I know I am not the only bad luck guy. Let's wait and see if others are having the same problem. I am not sure if this is a known issue to Apple, even if it is, it may take years before they can offer a recall or free repaire. I noticed that some G5s have already been suffering from power problems and a free repaire was offered.
Thank you again and hope Apple can take our concerns into their consideration soon.

Hello,
I'm also having this problem (fan running, won't come out of sleep), just spoke with an apple care rep. He confirmed my suspition that it was software, not hardware as I have just had the logic board and power supply replaced.
His suggestions were to:
1. Run disk repair from the startup CD
try running OS X from a firewire drive and see if the same behavior happens or
perform and archive and install.
When the fan starts to run like that it means the OS is not communicating with the hardware properly. The OS could be somewhat corrupt if you were having hardware issues beforehand, hence the need for a reinstall. I will be performing an archive and install after the disk repair, I'll let you know if it fixes the problem!

Hi Stopha6,
Thank you for your message. I never imagined it could be a software issue, cos it looked so hardware.
Please keep me updated with your progress.
By the way, as I said in my old posts, a hard disk went dead when this happened for the very first time, how do you read this?
Thank you.

Hi Stopha6,
After reading your reply again, I realized that the system had already been reinstalled. As I said when it happened for the first time, the hard disk died with it, which was replaced, of course with a new OS X, but the same problem is still happening. May this suggest that it is not just a software problem? Thank you. Songyan

The Fans going at full is only because you have an application that is using a lot of cpu power and therefore causing the imac to heat up so it turns the fans on. The screen-saver and sleep problem you describe sounds like something that may just happen on accident. But this sounds mostly like a software problem. Try making sure to always quit all non-apple products and see if anything changes.

Thank you, Ag-Nate. I will try as you adivised but I con't think the fans were activeted my intensive CPU using. In most of the cases, the problems happened when the Mac was sleeping, when the minimum CPU were being used.

"The Fans going at full is only because you have an application that is using a lot of cpu power and therefore causing the imac to heat up so it turns the fans on."
That's only partly right. A hard-working process will make the fans run at high speed, of course.
But, the OS is in touch with the firmware of the iMac, telling it how to run the fans, based upon information the OS X kernel is getting about the state of the hardware.
If the firmware loses touch with the OS for some reason, and is not getting instructions on how to run the fan, it will default to running them at full blast, to be on the safe side (and this "full blast" fan mode is way louder than anything you'll generally experience during normal usage, I know from experience).
So it may not be so simple as a hard-working cpu process kicking the fans on.

Hi I have a 20" G5 imac it's about 18 months old and I am having the same problem, It freezes and the fan runs really loud. It's nothing to do with software as my I.T. guy has done a complete re-install. All of our admin people have imacs of differring ages and the flat panels are all OK but every one of the G5s has had a booting problem. Some fell into the recall for replacement logic boards but the one I have at home is the newest and doesn't. I'm waiting for my apple reseller to get back to me, but it looks like it's the logic board and as none of the serial numbers fall into the recall, I'm expecting a big bill. I'm really disappointed as I've been a professional apple user for over 15 years and have grown to expect a certain amount of honesty and integrity from them. Looking at all of the discussion boards and the amount of people complaining of the same problem the logic boards are defective and apple should be replacing these free of charge.

Kensall,
Welcome to Apple Discussions!
As in the other thread I wrote:
Being from England, you may find the repair program under these pages:
http://www.apple.com/uk/support/imac/repairextensionprogram/
http://www.apple.com/uk/support/imac/powersupply/repairextension/
Check both of them as they refer to different models.
If neither of yours is under the program, please start a new topic thread so someone can help you.
http://discussions.apple.com/forum.jspa?forumID=881
First off, you'll get a wider audience who may be able to solve your problem. Secondly, responses to you won't confuse the original poster with solutions that don't apply to them. And thirdly, you'll know for certain whether or not a response applies to you.

I am having a very similar problem. My G5 imac has already had the logic board replaced from the leaking capacitor problem. 8 mos. later the power supply was replaced under the second recall program when it failed to start up.
It had been working now for almost a year, when about 3 mos. ago I started to experience the sudden dimming effect - if the display was untouched the screen would dim about 30% similar to a laptop in energy save mode. I checked and none of these types of options were set in the pref panes. At the same time I would have the iMac go to sleep after a while from non-use, and then when I tried to wake it it would stir for a few seconds and then go right back to sleep. It took 2-3 attempts to wake it up.
Then last week, as I tried to wake it, it just shut down instead completely. I had to hold the power button down to recycle it to get it to come back to life (3 times).
Today was it - I found what I thought was a sleeping iMac, but it will not power up at all. I opened the back cover and the power supply is working, but I cannot get the board to energize, I reset the PMU, but the #2 LED won't even blink. It is completely dead.
Basically every time I used this computer I held my breath that it would not work. After 2 recalls I still only get 9 mos. out of it? Apple is really starting to show it is like the "big" computer makers, the quality is going right down the tubes.

Crystal Report Displaying Problem

Hi Guys,

One question!
How are you sending the data to the reports? Are you connecting the reports directly to the SQL Server tables? If so, I believe you have to take into consideration the fact that connectivity parameters will vary in your client.
Maybe you have taken this into account already! Just in case
hope it helps

2x iMac G5: Both Logic Board and Display Problems, Warrenty?

Hello,
Thank you for looking at this topic.
I am Jeroen from The Netherlands and proud owner of several Mac Mini's, iMac's and Macbook's. I have 2times the iMac G5, a beautiful machine, but both not working since 2 months.
I have two times the iMac G5 with iSight, both have logic board and display problems.
The first iMac doenst start at all, black screen, i hear the chime, but nothing happening. After a minute i see one horizantal white stripe but nothing happens.
The second iMac has weird horizantal stripes also, but the computer starts. It gives a finder and questionmark icon. After a while the fans go crazy.
Both these symptons are widely known on the internet. I would like to get this fixed, but prices are crazy. And because this is a common issue I would expect to get this fixed for no costs. I have contacted several Apple resellers but they shown me high prices and bad services. On these forums I've saw people in the USA who get this fixed free of charge.
Does anyone has any advice for me? I'll call apple USA this morning.
Thankyou for ur time.

Welcome to Apple Discussions.
I know of no repair extension authorization which provides for the repair of either computer you describe beyond its original 12 month period of coverage. If either machine is covered by a warranty extension program provided by AppleCare, then the parts, labor or both required to replace the defective components may be offered at no charge to you. Final determination of eligibility is made at the part level by authorized Apple service providers or dealers and by the specific serial number of the machine submitted for service.
Absent a warranty extension, however, it is quite likely that you will have to pay for the repairs is you elect to have them performed.
