How can i find the installed forms version in 6i...?

Dear all,
How can i find the installed forms version in 6i, the situation is we have given a solution which will work in only forms6i latest version, before implementing the same we need to check whether the forms latest version has been installed or not
Is there any way to find out without opening the forms builder..?
Even if we un install the forms from a machine, the forms60_path variable will remain in regedit, so we cannot go based on that and aslo i dont know whether regedit will have the version details and all.
It would be greatly appreciated if any one can give a solution.
Thanks in Advance.
Thangaraj.

you query the registry, the registry has the version number saved, but I cannot remember exactly where and I don't have 6i Installed on my machine.
You just open the Forms Builder and click on Help/About.
But Jan's method is the best.

I installed the trial of Media Encoder CC but cannot find the imx30 preset. Where and how can i find and install this feature.

I installed the trial of Media Encoder CC but cannot find the imx30 preset. Where and how can i find and install this feature.

In the case of the trial mode, the license to MXF OP1a format as well as MPEG2 format are not activated if you install only Media Encoder only. If this is the case, in order to activate those formats in the trial mode, please also install Premiere Pro, After Effects or Prelude and launch it at least once. After this, re-launching Media Encoder should make MXF OP1a format available.

I just updated my MacBook Pro to 10.7.5 and got a message that the AppleUSBEthernetHost.kext was improperly installed and cannot be used. How to I find and install this extension?

Open the AppleScript Editor in the /Applications/Utilities/ folder, copy and paste the entire following line into it, and press the Run button:
do shell script "chown -R root:wheel /System/Library/Extensions/AppleUSBEthernetHost.kext" with administrator privileges
If it doesn’t work, throw that item away and then reinstall iTunes.

[SOLVED] Where to find pacman install log

I was wondering whether there was any sort of install log for pacman.
Also, if I wanted, how could I remove any packages installed between two specified dates (perhaps using the information provided in this log).
Thanks!

Default location: /var/log/pacman.log
man pacman.conf:
LogFile = /path/to/file
Overrides the default location of the pacman log file. A typical
default is /var/log/pacman.log. This is an absolute path and the
root directory is not prepended.
Also do check man pacman! And search the forums before posting!
Documentation is there for a purpose.

How do I find an installed App?

I'm surprised that Apple has failed to give us a way to find Apps that we've installed but removed from the screen. We can 'search' for them and they'll come up, but once we have to close them, we'll have to go thru the whole process again. Does anyone know how to find an installed App and secure its Icon to the screen?

I'm not talking about Apps residing in Folders. I'm talking about the Icon/App missing. I've found the answer at long last....if we "deleted" an App, it will Open if we go to the App Store, find it and just open it. But....that doesn't solve the problem because when we close the App, the Icon is 'still' not on our screen. In order to get the Icon back so we can open the App the easy way...from our own screen, we must go to "Purchased" in the App store and RE-DOWNLOAD the entire App. Whodathunkit.
Whodathunkit? How about anybody that has used an iPad for the past 4 years. That is the way that it has always worked, as Gail has already stated.

How do I find an install for Acrobat 9 so I can put it on a new computer and upgrade it?

I need to move my old license of Acrobat 9 to a new computer. I plan on upgrading it but I can't find the original install files. I refuse to pay for another full copy to move it, and under the my adobe account there is no download option next to Acrobat 9. I did download the XI trial but can't do anything with it now that the trial has expired. How can i get the old files so i can move it and upgrade it? Also when i co onto the old computer and look under help the Deactivation option is gray, and I can't select it. Any help would be appreciated, Thanks in advance.

When the trial asked me to register it I put my Acrobat 9 serial number in and it told me that it was not valid. It's the serial number that my "My Adobe" account gave me for the Acrobat 9 copy. Is there somewhere else I am suppossed to put it in at?

How can I find and install the state diagram toolkit and how to--

Hi,
I like to do practice how to do coding by using state diagram toolkit. For that purpose I need to install that software. Can you please help me in this regard about how to get theat toolkit and install afterwards?
I have another question. By using VI snippets, I can extract the meaning of a particular VI/node/function block or whatever may be. Is there anyway to extract meaning in case that screenshot is not a snippet?
Also, can you tell me about how to start from scratch for using labview in building algorithm and coding? any resource?
Thank You.

The state diagram toolkit is an addon and it has license fees. It's install is available on the complete set of install disks.
There is no other way to extract code besides using snippets.
You can find lots of information here regarding LabVIEW training including online options. You can also go through the tutorials that ship with LabVIEW.

How can I find currently installed security software?

Recently someone donated an iMac to our organization. I have not worked on a Mac in a couple of years, and do not have extensive experience. I downloaded out standard Antivirus and am getting an error message that "The selected drive already has security software installed that is incompatible with Symantec Endpoint Protection. I looked through Applications, but cannot find anything that looks familiar to me. Is there a way to figure out what "security software" is already installed. I sorted the Applications by Application Category, but didn't see anything that jumped out at me. I appreciate any help you can provide. The system is running Yosemite 10.10.2.

A
The first thing to do with a used computer is to erase the internal drive and install a clean copy of OS X. You—not the original owner—must do that. Changes made by Apple over the years have made this seemingly straightforward task very complex.
How you go about it depends on the model, and on whether you already own another Mac. If you're not sure of the model, enter the serial number on this page. Then find the model on this page to see what OS version was originally installed.
It's unsafe, and may be unlawful, to use a computer with software installed by a previous owner.
1. If you don't own another Mac
a. If the machine shipped with OS X 10.4 or 10.5, you need a boxed and shrink-wrapped retail Snow Leopard (OS X 10.6) installation disc from the Apple Store or a reputable reseller—not from eBay or anything of the kind. If the machine is very old and has less than 1 GB of memory, you'll need to add more in order to install 10.6. Preferably, install as much memory as it can take, according to the technical specifications.
b. If the machine shipped with OS X 10.6, you need the installation media that came with it: gray installation discs, or a USB flash drive for a MacBook Air. You should have received the media from the original owner, but if you didn't, order replacements from Apple. A retail disc, or the gray discs from another model, will not work.
To start up from an optical disc or a flash drive, insert it, then restart the computer and hold down the C key at the startup chime. Release the key when you see the gray Apple logo on the screen.
c. If the machine shipped with OS X 10.7 or later, you don't need media. It should start up in Internet Recovery mode when you hold down the key combination option-command-R at the startup chime. Release the keys when you see a spinning globe.
d. Some 2010-2011 models shipped with OS X 10.6 and received a firmware update after 10.7 was released, enabling them to use Internet Recovery. If you have one of those models, you can't reinstall 10.6 even from the original media, and Internet Recovery will not work either without the original owner's Apple ID. In that case, contact Apple Support, or take the machine to an Apple Store or another authorized service provider to have the OS installed.
2. If you do own another Mac
If you already own another Mac that was upgraded in the App Store to the version of OS X that you want to install, and if the new Mac is compatible with it, then you can install it. Use Recovery Disk Assistant to prepare a USB device, then start up the new Mac from it by holding down the C key at the startup chime. Alternatively, if you have a Time Machine backup of OS X 10.7.3 or later on an external hard drive (not a Time Capsule or other network device), you can start from that by holding down the option key and selecting it from the row of icons that appears. Note that if your other Mac was never upgraded in the App Store, you can't use this method.
3. Partition and install OS X
a. If you see a lock screen when trying to start up from installation media or in Recovery mode, then a firmware password was set by the previous owner, or the machine was remotely locked via iCloud. You'll either have to contact the owner or take the machine to an Apple Store or another service provider to be unlocked. You may be asked for proof of ownership.
b. Launch Disk Utility and select the icon of the internal drive—not any of the volume icons nested beneath it. In the Partition tab, select the default options: a GUID partition table with one data volume in Mac OS Extended (Journaled) format. This operation will permanently remove all existing data on the drive.
c. An unusual problem may arise if all the following conditions apply:
          OS X 10.7 or later was installed by the previous owner
          The startup volume was encrypted with FileVault
          You're booted in Recovery mode (that is, not from a 10.6 installation disc)
In that case, you won't be able to unlock the volume or partition the drive without the FileVault password. Ask for guidance or see this discussion.
d. After partitioning, quit Disk Utility and run the OS X Installer. If you're installing a version of OS X acquired from the App Store, you will need the Apple ID and password that you used. When the installation is done, the system will automatically restart into the Setup Assistant, which will prompt you to transfer the data from another Mac, its backups, or from a Windows computer. If you have any data to transfer, this is usually the best time to do it.
e. Run Software Update and install all available system updates from Apple. To upgrade to a major version of OS X newer than 10.6, get it from the Mac App Store. Note that you can't keep an upgraded version that was installed by the original owner. He or she can't legally transfer it to you, and without the Apple ID you won't be able to update it in Software Update or reinstall, if that becomes necessary. The same goes for any App Store products that the previous owner installed—you have to repurchase them.
4. Other issues
a. If the original owner "accepted" the bundled iLife applications (iPhoto, iMovie, and Garage Band) in the App Store so that he or she could update them, then they're irrevocably linked to that Apple ID and you won't be able to download them without buying them. Reportedly, Mac App Store Customer Service has sometimes issued redemption codes for these apps to second owners who asked.
b. If the previous owner didn't deauthorize the computer in the iTunes Store under his Apple ID, you wont be able to authorize it immediately under your ID. In that case, you'll either have to wait up to 90 days or contact iTunes Support.
c. When trying to create a new iCloud account, you might get a failure message: "Account limit reached." Apple imposes a lifetime limit of three iCloud account setups per device. Erasing the device does not reset the limit. You can still use an iCloud account that was created on another device, but you won't be able to create a new one. Contact iCloud Support for more information. The setup limit doesn't apply to Apple ID accounts used for other services, such as the iTunes and Mac App Stores, or iMessage. You can create as many of those accounts as you like.
B
All commercial "anti-virus" software is worse than useless on a Mac and should not be used. Symantec is one of the worst. It's worse than the imaginary "viruses" would be if they really existed, which they don't.

How do I find and install an older version of Adobe Media Encoder (Mac)?

I am currently trialing Adobe InDesign on my Mac (Snow Leopard).
I was unable to open the installed version of AME (7.0.0). I updated to 7.0.1 via this page http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/product.jsp?platform=Macintosh&product=160 but AME still wouldn't open.
As I understand it AME version 7 is only compatible with Mac OS 10.7 or higher, which would explain why it isn't opening.
Is it possible to download an older version of AME that would be compatible with Max OS 10.6.8? And if so, where do I find it? (The page above appears to have only update files.)

> Is it possible to download an older version of AME that would be compatible with Max OS 10.6.8?
Yes. You can use Adobe Media Encoder CS6, which comes with such applications as InDesign CS6.

How do I find and install the new Watermark plug-in?

I'm using Ps CC and have discovered that there is some kind of new watermark plug in but I can't find it, plus I can't find the plug-in installer. I already have my watermark designed, but I want to batch process addding it to multiple folders at a time. I've tried some action sets I found, but there must be some tricks I don't know. I did find one plug in (Adobe watermark 222) but I get an error message when I try to run it. Says it's only good for versions between 12 and 14???
Thanks.
I did successfully install the digimarc plug-in months ago.

Digimarc is a plug-in that places an invisible watermark into your images. I think what you may be referring to when you write new kind of watermark you may be referring to the Watermark panel for CS5, CS6 and CC which add your visible watermarks to image. There is nothing new about visible watermarks and IMO the panel is a hassle to use. Its easer to create an action that will watermark any size image and use it then maintain different size watermarks to be applied by some Photoshop panel or go through multiple steps in a panel. You can find that panel download here http://russellbrown.com/images/tips_downloads/Adobe_Watermark_222.zip and watch a video about it here http://av.adobe.com/russellbrown/Watermark_SM.mov

How do I find or install Google Calendar on my Motorola Droid?

I want to sync or import my Outlook 2010 calendar to my Droid. I believe I have to first import/sync my Outlook calendar to Google Calendar on my desktop, which I've done. What I cannot figure out is how to find Google Calendar on my Droid.
I assume the default Calendar app is not the same thing as Google Calendar? How do I put Google Calendar on my Droid, then transfer the data from my desktop Google calendar to my Droid Google calendar? I looked and searched in the Play Store on my Droid and could not find Google Calendar there.
Thank you.

Thanks very much. Part of my problem was having more than one Google/Gmail account...had to sift through those to pick the right one.
I found that I could first save my Outlook calendar as a file on my desktop, then simply browse for that file name and import it into Google Calendar. There were other directions I found on how to move Outlook calendar to Google Calendar, but that was easiest.
Appreciate the helpful guidance!
