Female Mini Display Port Adapter - Connect Monitor to Non Mini Display Port

Anyone know of a Female Mini Display Port Adapter, so I can connect the 24 LED Cinema Display to a computer that has DVI connector? Or hook the monitor up to a KVM, so I can use the monitor with multiple computers?
I know Apple doesn't make these, but does a third party?
Monoline appears to be coming out with adapters to hook a mini display port computer to DVI and HDMI, but not a mini display port monitor to DVI or HDMI.

'Mini Display port' is just a smaller version of display port, which is a slightly different version of HMDI.
No. You may be thinking of Mini DVI. Mini DisplayPort is a smaller verion of DisplayPort, which is different from DVI and HDMI.
<http://www.displayport.org/white-papers/whitepapers/DPTech_OverviewEnglish.pdf>
HDMI, display port, mini display port AND DVI are all capable of being 'converted' from one to another.
It is easy to make a Mini DisplayPort (card) to DVI (display) adapter because a DisplayPort card can be set to generate DVI signals. (Dual-link DVI is a bit more complicated since the adapter must sepatate the clock and data.). A DVI card cannot generate DisplayPort signals, so an adapter for a DisplayPort display with a DVI card would be a lot more complicated.
The ONLY thing that you would LOSE in a DVI to display port conversion is an audio signal.
HDMI is DVI video plus digital audio. DisplayPort does not use DVI video.
The point is they are all interchangeable, signal wise.
No. A DisplayPort card can generate DVI signals when a DuisplayPort to DVI adapter is detected, but a DVI cards cannot generate DiusolayPort signals.
But why should Apple make a cheap DVI to female display port when they can make more money on overpriced graphics card upgrades?
They can't make a cheap adapter, but they could have added a DVI port to the display.

PI 7.1: Weblogic (JMS adapter) - Connectivity & MONITORING!!

Hi ALL
WE have a requirement to integrate PI with Weblogic server using JMS adapter.
However, we would like to host the JMS queues in PI, so that we have end to end monitoring capability.
We do not want Weblogic Server to host these queue, instead want PI 7.1 to maintain these quese ... so that we can monitor these interfaces end -to- end.
Please, let us know if anybody has done this Weblogic integration with JMS queue monitoring within PI 7.1.
So, the main GOAL is to have JMS Queue monitoring in PI, where we have visibility to how many queues are running and the no.of messages in sent in each queue and failures if any.
Also, is there any Queue monitoring under /nwa adminstration; where we can see the queue created in PI
So, if anyone has implemented this in PI 7.1, please let us know.
Your help is greatly appreicated!!
Thank you,
Patrick.

Hi Patrick,
We've done something similar but with PI 7.0 & Weblogic hosting the queue so I'm not sure how useful this will be to you...
Firstly, great move to have the queue/s hosted in PI (in my opinion), for several reasons:
- You won't have to keep investigating whether or not Weblogic actually put the message on the queue/s or not.
- It makes monitoring a bit easier.
- For some reason on PI 7.0, when Weblogic or stops the queue services then PI stops polling for messages although we have green lights in RWB communication channel monitoring. If we stop & start the comm channel/s then the JMS Adapter starts picking up messages off the queue. A couple of SAP notes point to a known Weblogic issue with the way Weblogic works with initial contexts. Hosting the queues in PI would take care of this problem.
Currently we are using HermesJMS to monitor all JMS queue/s with number of messages & possible message backlog in the queues. We are also working on setting up Business Processing Monitoring that can do full end-to-end monitoring of a business process across the landscape not just in within PI. I'm also curious to see what's available in PI 7.1 for JMS queue monitoring.

I just bought a recertified Mac Mini, and I wonder if anyone here knows if it's possible to hook up my Mac flat screen LCD monitor to it using what adapters? I currently have a DVI to ADC adapter connected to my G4 Powermac.

I just bought a recertified Mac Mini core duo - it's not the newer model-, and I wonder if anyone here knows if it's possible to hook up my Mac flat screen LCD monitor to it and using what adapters? I currently have a DVI to ADC adapter connected to my G4 Powermac.
The company I bought it from is not Apple, and I may regret that. It was in my price range, though.
This is the first time I've used this community, and I've been a Mac owner since 2000. Thanks in advance!

when you say "Mac flat screen LCD", do you mean this:

Can someone recommend a Mini Displayport Female to HDMI cord/adapter?

I would like to get an Apple 27" to use with my PC, which has both HDMI and DVI inputs. Thanks!

Please clearify which Apple 27" display you want to connect. Is the the 2010 model which uses a mini-displayport. Or is it the current thunderbolt model.
If it's the TB model you're out of luck. You cannot connect a TB device to anything other that TB.
Confusing Mini DisplayPort with Thunderbolt
I generally recommend monoprice.com for cables and components. But a female mini-displayport adaptor to hdmi may be a problem to find.
Note, for DVI, if you want to use a 27" to it's full resolution you need dual-link DVI if you decide to use a DVI port. Also DVI does not pass audio.

Female to female mini-displayport cable or adapter anyone?

All that fuss about mini displayport to mini dvi adapter and even to micro dvi for the MBAs - let's face it, its not gonna happen people. Jobs has made it pretty clear about that, so lets stop hoping.
Instead lets look forward, and now since mini displayport has picked up, there is bound to be connectors and cables by partner developers. A female to female mini-displayport cable/adapter/connector is the only possible solution I could think of to connect a non aluminum MB to the new LCD.
Here is how:
Macbook
+connected to this+

+connected to this+
http://store.apple.com/auedu94060/product/MB382X/A?fnode=MTY1NDA5OQ&mco=MjIwODQ1NQ
* There is a possibility that one may not be able to use the mic/isight/speakers on the LCD via this setup - further confirmation is required.

Hence the new technology is not backward compatible and any solution for backward compatibility cant be resolved with mere external adapters or converters, perhaps it would be possible with the Express Card Slot, so for MBP owners you may be in luck, nevertheless it would prove to be quite complex and may be expensive - I also doubt any developer would take the initiative.
I guess its time to accept our fate, buy a non Apple display or if you must buy an Apple display, then I believe you are left with no choice but to get the older models, unless you upgrade of course.

Can I connect my iPad mini to a data projector using a lightning to 30-pin adapter connected to a 30-pin to VGA connector? Or will this only work with a lightning to VGA connector?

The lightning to 30 pin adapter does not support video as per the item description in the Apple online store:
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MD823ZM/A/lightning-to-30-pin-adapter
This adapter lets you connect devices with a Lightning connector to many of your 30-pin accessories.* Supports analog audio output, USB audio, as well as syncing and charging. Video output not supported.
You will need to the Lightning to VGA adapter directly

Or the Lightning Digital AV Adapter

RWB-Adapter Engine-Monitoring calling url of shorthost name

Hi,
I am familiar with where to set the domain name or short names for XI within the various connection settings
in the Exchange Profile. Does anyone know where the adapter engine monitor settings are stored? We are suddenly getting errors for http://host:52100/mdt/AmtServlet but if I put the FQDN in a new browser window it works fine. But the developers
here are unable to post to the adapter....
Thanks so much in advance...
Jim

Hi James,
FQDN is essential not only for RWB but for other components of WAS as well. Launch XI page wiht sxmb_ifr and check if it displays FQDN. Else follow the complete FQDN activation procedure as below.
1. In RZ10, add the parameter icm/host_name_full in instance profile.
2. Restart your system and follow note 764176 for changing SLD associations. This is important.
3. For adapter engine, apply note 804124.
Follow the complete procedure.

Youvraj

PI7.1 JMS Adapter - connect to NW6.40

Hello,
We are facing following problem on SAP PI:
We have a scenario where PI (version 7.1) is connecting to another SAP NetWeaver system (version 6.40). There is an application that reads/puts messages from/to JMS Queues running on this system. PI has to connect the JMS Provider of 6.40 system and read/put these messages from/to these JMS Queues.
This scenario worked fine till we used XI 3.0 (NW6.40). We configured sender JMS channel with link to remote JMS Server and parameter "force_remote".
After installation of new PI7.1 we noticed some issues:
1.the connection is unstable. Sending JMS messages from PI to NW6.40 queue works a while but then we get error like this:
Adapter Framework caught exception: Unable to write new JMS message body for message: 00237d29-13fc-02ed-ba85-01d046631592: ConnectorException: Connector for ConnectionProfile of channel: EON_CC_jms_rcv_omsmessageon node: 922834950 having object id: 70855b1c6c483e869982ea2fe9787b36 was unable to create a new javax.jms.TextMessage message: javax.jms.IllegalStateException: Session is closed.
2. we cannot read messages from JMS Queue of NW6.40 at all. The messages are there in queue, communication channel is running and succesfully connected to queue but no message is processed and no error shows in communication channel monitoring.
Has anybody solve similar problem with connection between 7.1 and 6.40 NetWeaver?
I think the problem can be backward incompatibility of 7.1 SAP JMS libraries against 6.40. If this is true then the question is whether it is possible to deploy old libraries and run them simultaneously with native 7.1 libraries?
Thanks

problem sorted - factory property settings were not configured correctly in JMS Adapter connection pool

CCMS Adapter Engine monitoring

Hi,
CCMS has been configured in our land scape long back. this configuration gets data from adapter engine and display it. We need to modify this. When we checked the configuration all Integration engine errors are being gathered using standard MTE classes and respective auto reaction methods are set.
But where as for Adapter engine monitoring a custom MTE's are created in below format.
<SID>\<SID> 00 Serv 2345672 pidev\Services\Adapter Framework\Messaging System\Sender Services\BS_Econ\Error Backlog
This has no standard method assigned to it. Searched over SDN, no GRMG is configured for polling this data. Please help in understanding how data can be polled for CCMS with out a method?

Hi ,
please check the below link for GRMG configuration steps and check the SAP Note 634771.

Just purchased an 11" Mac Book Air, and I'm using it as a desktop. Is it ok to lea the power adapter connected all the time?

I'm using my macbook air as a desktop unit, with an auxiliary flat panel display, as well as an external storage drive and a CD/dvd drive. Is it safe to leave the power adapter connected to the computer all the time? Will the battery life get affected or shortened by being fully charged all the time?

Apple recommends that for best battery life, you allow the battery to discharge occasionally.

Adapter message monitoring: message in HOLD

Hi,
since we changed a scenario:
a) old scenario: R/3 --> XI --> BPM --> XI --> FTP
b) new scenario R/3 --> XI --> FTP
the messages stuck in adapter message monitoring.
Message-Interface is the same, CC is the same; just the way through BPM was canceled.
any suggestions?
Thanks
Regards Mario

Hi Mario,
messages are in status HOLD, when they need to be sent in exact order (EOIO), and an error occured in one (or more) queues. When you solve this error, restart the first message from the queue after this error and the items will be processed.
How to do that:
Go to messaging system servlet, find your message (in hold status) and click the Eye icon - Details. Now read the Conversation ID value - which is your queue ID.
Go to RWB, message monitoring, choose adapter engine( from combobox)-> display.Now click additional criteria, put the value of Conversation ID to conversation ID textbox. Start search. You'll see a lot of messages there in hold status I think, But find the one in System Error status. Try to resend this message, if it will not change its status (will still be in in System error), cancel it. Now restart first message from the queue, which was after this wrong one.
This should release the queue and process items.
If any questions, let me know.
Peter
