External trackpad windows 8 problems

I know this has been discussed, but I'm having trouble finding the solution.
I'm typing this on my external bluetooth keyboard and external trackpad on my Macbook Pro Retina.
The things I can not do on my external trackpad
right mouse
two finger scroll
I know trackpad++ does not work on external trackpad (sadly because I use that on the internal trackpad and it works great)
Thanks for any help.

Wondering if 18 views and no response means that this feature does not work.

USB2 external HD/windows problem

Today I bought a Maxtor 500GB HD to copy some files from a friends Windows machine to then copy to my Powerbook. When I have got home, it all works fine but when I went to copy files to the HD it wont let me copy anything to the new HD. I hit 'get info' and the ownership states its a read only HD. Im assuming this is because it was first plugged in to a windows machine but is there anything I can do? bloody Windows...

Chances are the hard drive was formatted NTFS. Macs can only read from NTFS, but can't write to it without the aide of a special utility here:

To learn more about which formats both platforms can read, write, and boot from see this article:

Time machine, finder save to external hard drive problems

I have a new 2.26 GHz mini and I wanted to get bootcamp going and install windows xp. The instructions suggested to backup the hard drive and I thought this is a great time to try the time machine. I plugged in a external hard drive, opened time machine (Time machine said it needed 29 GB for full backup and the drive had 32 GB free), selected the drive, and let the "backup count down(I think it was a minute and a half)" run down to zero. Time machine started backing up the my main drive to the external drive no problem. It was running good (100MB in 5-10 seconds) for a little while when I noticed that it had reached 2.3 GB and was not going any higher. I let it stay like that for about 5 minutes thinking that maybe it would start going again. No luck. I shut down time machine and saw a finder window with the progress bar behind it saying 2.3 GB. I push the stop button and it said stopping, but it would not stop and disappear like it should. I relaunch the finder and the icons on the desktop disappeared and would not come back. I relaunched repeatedly but they would not come back. Since the bar at the top of the screen would not come back I had to hold in the power button to shut down the computer.
Upon restart everything seemed to work fine until I tried time machine again and it would not work. So I tried to manually backup the files to the external drive. When I copied some files the little finder window popped up and said, zero KB of 290 MB, and would not change. I left it running while opened a browser and did a search for an answer to my problems. After about a half an hour I went back and saw that some files had been transferred. When I looked in the Activity monitor, I saw it was saving the files very slowly. I went to the finder progress bar and when I hit the stop button, it would say stopping but it wouldn't. I would have to relaunch the finder to make it stop. Then I tried to copy the files to a shared drive on my network and the same thing happens.
Before using the time machine both these drives worked no problems. I went to the shared drive computer and used that machine to copy the files from the mini. All files transferred no problems. So now I'm trying to find out what is wrong with my mini. It seems that it has to do with the finder since it effects both the usb and ethernet hard drives. All other functions work as they should. I don't know if anyone has had this problem after using time machine but any help would be appreciated.
Also I tried deleting my com.apple.finder.plist and relaunch the finder. No change.

That's much too small for your backups. Time Machine usually needs 2-3 times the space of the data it's backing-up (see #1 in the Frequently Asked Questions *User Tip,* also at the top of this forum).

That sounds like the drive is not formatted properly. See #C1 in the Start with the Time Machine - Troubleshooting *User Tip,* also at the top of this forum.
The other problems may have the same cause.
Most likely, it's set up for Windoze and not suitable for Time Machine. With only 32 GB free, you must have other data on the drive, so you probably can't erase it and reformat it for Time Machine.
Report back with your findings for the *Partition Map Scheme* and Format of the drive (per #C1), and we can figure out what to do next.

Expanding ZIP files in External Data Window

Hi,
How could I expand the contents of ZIP files in the external data windows?
I've developped a GPI extension to unzip the file and extract data from compressed files. But my client wants to see the content of the file before uncompress.
Best regards
Frederic

Hello
I think also that the best solution to expand a ZIP files in the "External Data" portal of Diadem, is to use a data plugin.
But a data plugin is used to filter files with their extensions in "external data" and to import data in the "Data portal : internal data"
But our problem is to expand the ZIP files in the "external data" portal as the joint document presents.
We have not found the solution to do this.

SSO UIDPW not working for external Popup Window but works with SAPLOGONTICK

Dear Experts,
I have an issue with SSO user mapping (UIDPW), but the same scenario is working with SAPLOGONTICKET.
Some list gets displayed in the Web Dynpro ABAP iView which has the hyperlinks where on click on the hyper link it opens a external popup window (another Web Dynpro Application) and display the summary some data.
This scenario works when I set the logon method to SAPLOGONTICKET, but when I set it as UIDPW it won't work when a new window opens on click on the hyperlink from Web Dynpro iView as stated above. It asks to login to R/3 system.
Can anyone please let me know what could be the reason it fails in External Popup window scenario when logon method as UIDPW.
Thanks
Murthy

Hi Murthy,
You can use application integrator iView to integrate your ABAP application into the portal and you'll be able to pass the variables <MappedUser>, <MappedPassword>, etc. assuming you know about the security risks in passing mapped info.
http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_05/helpdata/en/36/5e3842134bad04e10000000a1550b0/frameset.htm
Still, your ABAPers might need to handle the passed in variables in the first ABAP application and pass them onto the second one. Again, without knowing how you navigate between the 2 apps and other details about your system landscape, versions, etc. this remains as a guess. If you search SDN, you'll find many different solutions then you can choose one which is most suitable for your situation.

Hi,
You are getting the error because the printer name is greater than 40 characters.
The SAPLPD can only recognize printer names with 40 characters or less.
From the log, i believe you are using the printer BKC_7THFLR_HPCOLOR3800 ON THMUMGDCPS01 (FROM BKCDT1017) IN SESSION 11
but the SAPLPD is recognizing only till BKC_7thFlr_HPColor3800 on THMUMGDCPS01.
Try to change the printer name .. it will work

Trackpad + Typing Problem

Recently my Macbook has begun acting up a little bit. At random times when I'm dragging the cursor across the screen, it will start highlighting text, clicking buttons, opening things from the dock, etc. Without even clicking the trackpad button, it seems to be activated, and held down. It makes it very difficult to browse the internet, use iTunes, etc., because it will randomly just start clicking and moving songs, opening links, messing up Mail, etc.
Furthermore, there seems to be a somewhat related problem with typing. When this trackpad/clicking problem seems to be occuring, it also becomes very difficult to type. Typing seems to work just fine initially, but then all of a sudden the text I'm typing won't show up on the line. The cursor blinks, and then jumps to a random line of text, highlights a few words, and then pauses. If I continue typing, it either erases the text that was selected, or just keeps typing and adding characters to the middle of a word or sentence I've already typed.
Something definitely seems to be glitching. Occasionally I'm able to 'reset' the problem by moving the cursor to the desktop and firmly clicking on the trackpad 3-5 times. That will stop things from randomly highlighting and usually get the text to work again. It seems to be a problem mostly when I'm using Adium to talk to people, or just after I've typed for a few paragraphs (it's starting to act up right now, actually).
Should I call Apple, or does anyone have any suggestions for fixing the problem with Software, etc.? I don't want it to progress any further, but as a college student, I'm going to be doing a lot of typing and need it fixed.
Thanks.

Have you tried resetting your Power Management Unit?
Turn your Mac off, and remove the battery. Hold the power button down for about five to ten seconds. Pop the battery back in, and restart your computer.
I had this issue, and it went away right after I did this.

Apparently our Sandbox system didn't have a Spool server configured. That's why the error. It works perfectly in other systems.
The output device's Host Printer must be defined on the spool server for saplpd to recognize. Otherwise you see an error.

How to add Live Type in the external editor windows?

I was just refreshing myself by one of the FCP dvds from magent media where Even Schechtman show his window of External Editors in System Settings.
I have the latest FCP version but that line which reads "Live Type" in external editor window is missing. Though he didnt discuss anything on the dvd but made me curious of my observation.
How Can I add Live Type message box which can be checked in External editor Window?
Thanks

This is something specific to FCP4.x ... it does not appear in FCP5.x
Final Cut Pro HD: LiveType does not appear in the External Editors tab
Under some circumstances, the External Editors tab (choose Final Cut Pro HD > System Settings) in Final Cut Pro HD does not display a setting for "LiveType Movie Files."
This can happen if you installed Final Cut Pro HD from a new Final Cut Pro HD disc, as opposed to installing it from an upgrade. If you upgraded from Final Cut Pro 4 to Final Cut Pro HD, you will not have this issue. If you upgraded from an earlier version of Final Cut Pro using an upgrade disc, you will not have this issue.
You can still add LiveType files to the timeline even if LiveType does not appear in the External Editors tab. The behavior may be slightly different, depending on whether you add a LiveType project file or a LiveType movie file to the Timeline.
If you add a LiveType project file (for example, MyProject.ipr) to the Timeline and then choose to open it in an External Editor, the file will open automatically in LiveType as a LiveType project.
If you add a rendered LiveType movie file to the Timeline and then choose to open it in an External Editor, the file will open in the Editor you've selected for Video Files (in the External Editors tab) or in QuickTime Player if none is selected.
In summary, "LiveType Movie Files," only appears if you upgrade to Final Cut Pro HD from an earlier version of Final Cut Pro 4. It is not required in the External Editors beacuse a LiveType project file will automatically open in the LiveType application and a movie rendered from LiveType will automatically open in QT Player.

Satellite L850 - external 1080p display problems

I had been running my Satellite L850 laptop via HDMI to an external monitor without problem for many months.
A couple of weeks ago I attempted to update the catalyst driver and have had problems ever since.
Basically now when I select 1080p mode via the catalyst control panel it makes the screen flash and have vertical lines.
Occasionally it will work for a short period, even up to an entire day and than it will randomly start again. I can play a game in 1080p mode and it will be totally random, sometimes allowing me to play for hours without having the black screen flashes whilst other times it will flash constantly and the only way to resolve is to either restart or pull out the HDMI cable and plug back in and cross your fingers you have enough time to reopen catalyst and change to 720P which is always stable.
I have tried:
1. Using the AMD Catalyst removal tool and reinstalling via the original factory default Toshiba catalyst drivers
2. Using System Restore to go back before I made the changes
3. Using the AMD Catalyst removal tool and updating to the newest version via AMD website.
4. Reinstalling my chipset drivers along with #1
5. Tried a different monitor (still happens)
On a side note every time I use the removal tool it removes my USB drivers also and I have to reinstall.
The current graphics driver is AMD Radeon HD 7670M and I have also tried the solution on the tech support forum here http://www.mytoshiba.com.au/support/item/781.
I have run out of options other than a complete format and reinstall which I want to avoid if possible. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance

Probably your problem has nothing to do with the picture issue mentioned in the technical document posted by MisterX.
I could read in your first post above, that this issue appeared exactly after the driver update.
> A couple of weeks ago I attempted to update the catalyst driver and have had problems ever since.
Are you 100% sure that the display driver update has caused this problem?
You have also mentioned that this issue does not appear always but sporadically and every once in a while.
From my point of few there are some open questions:
1) Is it really an graphic card driver problem or maybe an GPU issue?
If the issue did not appear in the past (before the GPU driver update) then yes: it could be related to the driver.
2) The notebook support also an Intel HD graphic card (its part of the Intel CPU)
I think you should check if the same issue would appear using the Intel GPU.
Try to uninstall the AMD driver (from device manager as well as from programs & features are within the control panel) and test it using Intel GPU only.
3) Last but not least test the notebooks video output with fresh recovered notebook. After the recovery the graphic card driver should be the same which you have used before the update.

Nested Window Problem

Hopefully someone out there can help solve this one.
How do you get a child window to automatically resize within a parent
window?
On their own both the child window and the parent window behave as
expected but once we attempt to load the child window into the parent
window the child window is sized to some unknown but excessively large
size.
Can this be solved with some creative use of parent size relationships
or do we have to programmatically size the child window?
Any help/comments/suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Sincerely,
Sean G. Germain

Glen,
Thank you for the prompt reply.
We have already done what you suggested (My explanation was not very
clear ... sorry) to no avail.
Any more takers and/or ideas anyone?
Thanks,

Subject: Re: Nested Window Problem
You may need to dynamically tell the child window what its parent is (such
as a named grid that exists on the parent window). Setting the child
window to size to its parent should work once the child window knows who
its parent is. You should be able to put your window into that grid at
specified row and column coordinates. To reset the parent and position a
widget in a grid, you do something like the following:
<Widget>.Parent = NIL;
<Widget>.Row = 1;
<Widget>.Column = 1;
<Widget>.Parent = <TargetGrid>;
I believe that you should be able to do the same thing for a window, too
(using "Self.Window" instead of "<Widget>").

Running Worldcraft with Wine (or OpenGL in child window problem)

Hi!, I'm trying to run Worldcraft (the Half life map editing tool) with wine (version 0.9.30), everything works fine except when I choose to display a 3D view on one of the viewports (3D views uses OpenGL to render the scene), when I do this, the whole window turns black, and flickers (showing some portion of the original window) when I hit the mouse button of move the window.
This seems to be the Opengl in child window problem that was supposedly fixed in wine 0.9.28, but, well.. it happens This happens also with Lightwave 8.0.
Can anyone try and see if this happens to you as well? or.. well. does anybody knows how to fix it?
thanks a lot!
silencer

Thanks Nephastos, but I'm trying to run Worldcraft, not Warcraft Worldcraft is a world editing tool for Half-Life.
I uploaded it to my server if anyone would like to try and see if it works for you (as it is an issue that should be solved by now, I think), you can download it from http://www.darkdesigns.com.ar/worldcraft3.exe
Thanks a lot

Failure to search - query window problem

Hello again,
Have anyone of you came across a problem with SAP search mechanism in query window attached to document field? I've created a simple query of "Select acctcode,acctname from OACT where acctcode like '2%' and postable='Y' order by acctcode" and attached it to one of document fields (doesn't matter which one). When I run this query a usual window poped up with a search field on the top, but when I typed "2" in it, selection bar moved right into first 231 account ignoring any of the lesser numbers. There is more - when I changed query to search for '5%' like accounts, I gained the same result - accounts less than 530 were ignored even if I typed "50" or "51". BUT - when I changed query sort order to "desc", all account became "findable".
I got this problem in one database only which is SAP 8.8 PL10 version upgraded recently from 2007A one. I've checked with a newly created 8.8 and such problem hasn't occured.

Hello Thomasz,
I might be off base here, what happens when you use this???
Do you get the same types of query window problem???
Select
acctcode,
acctname,
segment_0
from OACT
where Segment_0 like '2%'
order by acctcode
for browse

Opening an external Flash window from a Flash window

I'm working on a project in Flash. The project consists of
menus and sub-menus where when a menu is clicked-on, an external
Flash window opens with another menu. Please tell me how to do
this. I hope that this makes sense. Please tell me if you have any
questions if it doesn't. Thanks.

Hi michaeltowse,
This is indeed something more complicated. Let me give you
some details about the project:
This project is to be initially created in Adobe Captivate.
It consists of the main menu that is to be created in Flash (menu
1); sub-menus, which are to be created in Captivate (menu 2); and
menus of sub-menus, which are to be created in Captivate as well
(menu 3). Now, the part where I need help on is the part that goes
from sub-menus (menu 2) to menus of sub-menus (menu 3). When any
option is to be selected from the sub-menu (menu 2), a new window
is suppose to pop-up (menu 3) that is suppose to be in Flash. This
new window is suppose to be a new Flash window and is not suppose
to be opened in a browser, but it's suppose to be opened in another
Flash window (SWF window). This whole entire project is to be
executed via an embedded Flash executable. Thus all the .SWF files
that were created in either Captivate or Flash are to be tied
together via a Flash executable. I was told in Captivate's Forum
that this may be done via ActionScript in Flash and I'm wondering
whether that is that case. Please tell me if my project makes
sense.
Thank you.
