EHP6 upgrade with PI in the landscape
Hi All,
I realize all documentation say that you must always keep your PI boxes at the highest levels in your landscape.
I know oss note 1043047 and 954820 speak to this.
I'm just became part of a project that over looked this. We are planning a EHP6 upgrade.
This will bring in NW 731 stack right?
Our PI is old at NW 7.11
The SLD on the PI's are to the latest versions.
The project to migrate to PO is coming after ehp6.
Again this was all planned before I came on board.
Any thoughts of what to expect? I still believe it should work fine until we get to the upgrade.
If not, can anyone explain technically why not?
You should under all circumstances perform a test upgrade, on a sandbox system first.
The theory of the upgrade is one thing, the problems of doing it for real are a quiet different matter.
You can see the changes (including what new kernel version will be installed), when reviewing the stack calculation report as done by MOPz (SolMan Maintenance Optimizer).
It will tell you exactly what software component gets replaced with what other version.
Also consider the impact on development, and if you have a multi-system landscape, you gotta plane in which sequence to upgrade what server.
Last not least, consider performance impact and downtime.
I have seen PI systems so (over)utilized that they literally "cooked the hardware" they were running on.
Putting the added strain of performing an upgrade on such a system, might be the straw that breaks the camel's back.
That is why sandbox testing is so essential here.

As stated in the title! Please help!
@imwater,
Here's what I just read on 9to5Mac:
"For those who purchased the third-generation iPad recently... CNET reported that local Apple Stores might replace the third-generation iPad with the new fourth-generation if it was purchased within the last 30 days."
Since you qualify for this 30-day policy, I think you have a pretty good shot at getting that upgrade.
Here's the full story: http://9to5mac.com/2012/10/23/apple-will-exchange-3rd-gen-ipads-purchased-within -the-past-30-days-for-a-shiny-new-4th-gen/

Dear all
we are moving to ECC6 ehp4 to EHP6 we don't have suffcient hardware for shadow system so we go directly it takes lot of time in all phases
we made test system sucessfully npw we need to do samething in PRD server we have db and app in that we are not able keep PRD down for many days
we have 32 gb ram on PRD
can we export database of PRD and import in some other system and make that system as PRD for stanby server for some days we can work on dbci and we can keep app server down once update done with EHP6 then again restore this database to original server
Thus will effect the business
kindly suggest some points so we can go further
RegardsHi Rajendra
Kindly follow the steps & could you share your OS / DB size details
1. System copy from live Production to test system copy, in test system you are going to start the upgrade.
2. Do the upgrade ECC EHP 4 to 6 in test system, during this process you have to calculate over all timings of upgrade process of SUM and all other issues.
3 After upgraded to ECC6 EHP6 in the test system, do the full function level test with help of ABAPer /Function consultant.
4. Based on the test environment result, you have to perform the same upgrade process in live production system with minimum down time, during this process users must be locked and all other background jobs are suspended.

How can I upgrade my iCloud account's storage but pay for the upgrade with another Apple ID?
I want to upgrade my iCloud account so that I can back-up my iPhone, however I would like to pay for the upgrade using a different Apple ID than the Apple ID associated with my iCloud account. I can not figure out how to do this, when I hit buy after selecting my desired plan it wants be the buy the upgrade with the Apple ID my iCloud account uses. Please help!
I don't think that's possible. (If you're trying to get it on another credit card, one option would be to purchase an iTunes gift card with it and redeem it to create an iTunes store credit. Storage upgrades will first charge your iTunes store credit before charging your card.)

i upgraded my Itunes to the latest version and now it won't let me view my library with the column browser. Can i get that back? I tried using the shortcut for it and nothing happens. When I try to do it from the view menu, it shows up as something I can't click on. The new library format is driving me crazy and I just want to get back to the old library view.
We need to sort out some facts here first:
• You cannot be running Mt. Lion on your iMac G5. What Mac is it? What is the Model Identifier listed in About This Mac; More Info; Hardware Overview
• What is the model of your Epson Scanner?
• Have you attempted to scan using Image Capture, located in your Applications folder?
• Your Palm Pilot software will only run in Snow Leopard; so depending upon which Mac you have, you will either have to:
1) partition your hard drive or add an external hard drive and install Snow Leopard into it to "dual-boot" when you want to access you Palm software, or
2) install Snow Leopard Server (now available from Apple for $20 telephone orders USA & Canda only) into Parallels 8 to run your Palm software in Mt. Lion:

i factory unlock my iphone 3gs and was on ios 6.1.2 and updatednit to 6.1.3 with itunes and the phone got lock again at activation screen. i try downgrading to 4.1 with baseband 5.13.04 and want to upgrade back to 6.1.2. pls help me
Sorry, downgrading the iOS is not supported by Apple, thus there is no official way to do so. Your phone was re-locked to the carrier it was originally locked to because you hacked it to unlock it. Apple's servers detected such & re-locked your phone. You need to contact the carrier your phone is locked to if you want to get it officially unlocked.

I can't send emails from Mail. I have three different accounts set up and have the same problem with all. The mail just sits in my outbox. All worked fine until Yosemite upgrade. Recent update has not fixed problem.
I have been experiencing the same problem. My mail app won't even open on my Late 2011 Macbook Pro. It will show as open, but the app will never actually show up.

I have an iPhone 6 with IOS 8.1.3. When I go to the landscape view in Safari, the bookmark page appears and takes up one half of the screen. How can I get rid of the bookmark page so I can use the whole screen to what I am browsing?
OOPS! Too quick on the trigger to ask that question without trying anything. Sorry. Solved it by touching the bookmark icon.

I bought a Mountain Lion upgrade for $20 off the Apple site. I have four other Macs all under the same ID. How can I share the new OS with other computers. Or can I?
You can share it with other Macs under your control (not your neighbor's). You just need to be logged in under the buying AppleID for updates or to download again.
Use this thread to find a method of copying the ML download into a USB drive to make other installations easier: https://discussions.apple.com/message/16639520#16639520 -
I'm trying to install Adobe Photoshop CS3 on a new ASUS ASM11BB001O computer equipped with 64-bit Windows 7. I use a "bundle" approach, first loading Photoshop 6, then upgrading with CS upgrade and then CS3 upgrade. The installation goes smoothly until I add PS CS, and then it balks at the "accept" Adobe conditions screen. I have two other (Gateway) computers with Windows 7, 64-bit, on both of which the PS-6, CS-CS3 pathway worked fine. Any thoughts on how to get this working? Thanks
If your goal is to install and activate CS5 there is no need to install anything preceding it. You will only need to have the serial number from the preceding version that you upgrade from (CS3 I guess).

I had a working scvmm 2012 sp1 installation, and am attempting to upgrade to 2012 r2.
The old SCVMM product was removed (retaining the database), as well as ADK 8.0. I then installed ADK 8.1.
The install fails after a number of minutes with "Access to the path 'C:\ProgramData\VMMLogs\SetupWizard.log' is denied". From my reading of the log, that was the only obvious failure, and that the VMM server MSI installed successfully.
It doesn't appear to get so far as to upgrade the database.
The OS is Windows Server 2012 R2 Standard, with all updates applied. I have tried the install many times, noticed that the McAfee virus scanner was pushed to the box at some point, so I removed it, but still no dice.

Also, I am not able to see any of my music on the phone post upgrade, but it shows on iTunes. Again not sure on how to make it appear on my phone. Any help would be much appreciated!!

After an earlier attempt to move Logic from my other mac (OSX 10.6.8) with the migration assistant to my new mac with OSX 10.8.2. I've re-started the whole start up process by erasing the hard drive from the new machine and build it up from scratch. After a new "out of the box" start, I decided to install LOGIC from my disks : starting with my 2007 package Logic Studio 8 and upgrading with my Logic 9 package from 2009. When trying to start to install 2008 I got the error message : Logic Studio.mpkg cannot be opened as the power pc programs are no longer supported.
What does this mean? HOw do I get this working under 10.8.2 as it works flawlessly under OSX 10.6.8. For sure I didn't buy a new machine to have OSX 10.8.2 but I suspect this is the roadblock to installing my logic package.
Help!Mark,
Sorry...
I completely lost the thread (I actually got confused between you and another poster on a another forum that was asking the same basic question) and somehow ended up thinking you were trying to install on a PPC Mac
My apologies and please ingnore those parts of my last post relating to the PPC Macs...
You have an Intel Mac and therefore Logic Studio 2 Boxed Upgrade set should install/run on your Mac without issue. As I said earlier.. you do not need to try and install from the original Logic Studio 1 /Logic 8 Boxed set...(It won't work anyhow because you have an Intel Mac and that version had a PPC installer) but just install from the Logic Studio 2 / Logic Pro 9 Upgrade Boxed setof DVDs instead...
Have you tried the "Make Disk Image" solution I gave earlier? That normnally works under such circumstances as what you are describing can happen when your DVD drive cannot read the DVDs correctly... I have had this situation myself where one drive read them okay and another failed to do so for whatever reason. Making and then installing from Disk images of those exact same disks resolved the issue for me...
You can try to reinstall directly from the DVDs of course though under some circumstances it may not allow you to reinstall Logic Pro itself if that part of the original installation attempt was successful... in which case you can also try this... (It's probably the easiest method if Logic 9 was already installed and present in your Apps Folder)
If the Logic Pro App is in your applications folder..
Run Software Updates to update Logic Pro to a version that will run under 10.8.2 (The initially installed version of Logic will not)
Run Logic
Go to the menu bar in Logic and select Logic Pro/Install Additional Content and select all content in there..
This content is basically exactly the same as what is stored on the remaining DVDs of the boxed set so you might not need to use the rest of the DVDs to install from but download it all instead from Apple Servers... -
I am trying to install xcode on a macpro running OSX 10.6.8 . It installs, but with the error that there is no unix support. Do I have to upgrade to Lion 10.7 to do this? And if so, is this a free upgrade if I have the extended 3 yr support?
thx,
PandabigXcode 4.x cannot be installed on Snow Leopard. You need a 3.x. So if that is what you used then yes, you need to install lion. If connect.apple.com still alows registration or logins using an existing appleid then you could download the last xcode 3.2.6 for free.
